Balika Vadhu 31st October 2012 Written Update

Scene 1:
Location: Jaitsar Haveli and at a tila in the village.
Jagiya is roaming around the house reliving his memories with anandi there with a heavy face.wherever he goes,be it the mandir or the room that they once shared,the memories dont leave him.He finally goes to the store room where he finds the suitcase that anandi had packed his old stuff in and thrown it there.He opens it to find the divorce papers and the voice of the judge still rings in his ears proclaiming them to be divorced.Then he rummages throught the other things kept in the bag.

Meanwhile shiv and anandi are sitting on the tila under the tree where she asks him why did he take the detour and stop there.He replies that he wanted to talk.Just then he gets a call from mahi who is disappointed to hear that he hasnt told anandi yet.Shiv then nervously tries to pick up a topic to talk about and chatters about bikes.anandi senses his anxiety and asks if thats actually what he wanted to talk about.He says he wanted to spend some time alone with her.Saying that he takes a jewellery box out of his pocket and gives it to her.

Drawing an analogy,jagiya too finds the jewellery box which contained the anklet that he had given her.She assk the reason for the gift,he replies saying that it marks the holy day that marks the commencement of the marriage preps starting with the first card being sent out to Lord Ganesha.Anandi expresses her happiness.He asks for her permission to assist her in wearing them.

While in the haveli,jagiya remembers when he had gifted her the payal and the romance then.Shiv on the other hand affectionately drapes the payal around her ankle which she too smilingly agrees to.When he’s done,she has a look at them and comments on them being very beautiful.While jagiya remembering the incident puts the anklet away.He is visibly disturbed but then his eyes wander to other things and he thinks presumptuously that the reason anandi has still taken care of her belongigns is because in her heart she still loves her and what he had been thinking was right all along.And makes up his mind thinking he knows what he has to do now.

Whiel anandi proposes to leave now,shiv is reminded of mahi’s advice of opening out his heart to anandi.He calls out to her from behind and assk her to stop saying that he didnt say what he wanted to.Anandi waits for him to speak.He goes on to say that the first time they met,he never knew that they would ened up spending their whole life together.After that they kept meeting,had fights and arguements too and she was upset too with him but he knew then only that somewhere in his heart he had started liking her.And when dadisa asked him to marry her,he in fact was himself in the process of mustering up enough courage to bare his heart to her.He says that he didnt say it then,but wants to now.Anandi is tensed.He tells her that the reason he is mrrying her is not because of the rituals and the traditions,but because he feels for her and finally says the words “I LOVE YOU” to her.She is stunned into silence but is pleasantly surprised as that confession brings a sweet shy innocent smile on her face and she gets emotional with little tears welling up in her eyes.He says that the jewellery is not just that,but a mark of their relation together,that their love shall continue for eternity and that he would never desert her and would always be by her side.She smiles again and turns to proceed towards the bike.He asks her with concern that he didnt respond.She turns and says that the anklet is really very beautiful with a twinkle in her eyes.and saying so turns away.Silence thereafter,but both seem to be revelling and basking in the glory of their romance smiling to themselves.

Shiv then drops her to her house and drives away.Anandi watches him from behind and gives a shy loverlike smile to herself.

On the way home,as he too is happpy,he is stopped on the way by jagat.He gets down the bike and asks him the reason for being stopped.Jagiya blurts out that he wants something from him abd thats anandi saying that he needs shiv to give him his life back.Shiv is puzzled.The screen freezes on his face.

Underlying Message: Hope and thirst for love never dies.in fact it hepls a person not to lose faith even in the worst of circumstances and gives him the sense of a false world where things go as he hoped for.

Precap: Jagiya showing all the love letters he wrote anandi and the teeny weeny other bits from the suitcase trying to make him understand that she has not thrown them away and kept them close to her heart since she still cares for jagiya.Shiv is puzzled.On the other hand,anandi sees the contents of the suitcase strewn on her bed and wonders how did the suitcase get her from the store and who brought it.Now that she has thrown her pst life away with all its memories and moved on,who is still reminisceing them.
