It was the day of Shivika's reception. Shivaay and Anika were getting ready as ordered by Jhanvi. Jhanvi arranged makeup artists for Anika and Anika wasn't very happy with that as she didn't like makeup but she didn't want to hurt Jhanvi.

Jhanvi entered Anika's room and was stunned at how beautiful she was looking.

Anika was dressed in a grey anarkali lehenga and she had a simple makeup. She looked like an ethereal beauty.

Jhanvi smiled widely and put a dot of kohl behind Anika's ear to protect her from evil eyes.

J- You're looking so beautiful, Anika. Just like an angel.

A- Thank you maa.

J- I'll send Shivaay here and you both come downstairs together. All the guests are already here.

Jhanvi said and Anika nodded her head obediently. The make up artists also left.

After Jhanvi left, there was a knock on the door and Shivaay entered the room.

Anika looked at him and he was looking charming in a grey kurta and pants.

Shivaay looked at Anika and he was totally mesmerised by her.

S- Wow! You.. you look like an angel.

Shivaay said and Anika blushed to the deepest shade of the red.

A- You're also looking nice.

Shivaay moved a little closer to Anika and pulled her closer to him and Anika took a sharp breath.

S- Just nice?

Shivaay Smiled teasingly. Anika was surprised for a moment at Shivaay's flirty behaviour.

A- Shiv... Shivaay.

S- Hmm.. I'm listening.

He said while tucking a hair strand behind Anika's ear and pecked her ear. Anika closed her eyes and panted at this new feeling.

Suddenly, someone opened the door and rushed inside.

Anika and Shivaay turned to look at Aadi, who was dressed up in a golden kurta and salwar.

Anika looked at him and smiled widely. She bent down on her knees to match Aadi's height.

Aa- How am I looking, Mumma?

Aadi twirled and Anika and Shivaay admired his cuteness.

A- My baby is looking like a handsome prince.

Anika complimented Aadi and hugged him.

S- And Aadi's father?

Shivaay asked Anika with a teasing smile and Anika glared at him.

S- Mr. Prince, let dadda carry you and we'll go downstairs.

Shivaay said and Aadi jumped in Shivaay's  arms.

Shivaay wrapped his another arm around Anika's waist and they headed downstairs.

As soon as the guests saw them, they applauded loudly and welcomed them.

Shivaay and Anika along with Aadi headed to the stage and settled down on the couch with Aadi on Shivaay's lap.

All the guests went up the stage turn by turn and congratulated Shivaay and Anika.

Suddenly, there was silence in the party and everyone was looking at the entrance like some alien was entering the venue but they weren't completely wrong as Ragini entered the hall, dressed up in a golden dress with golden wings.

A

- Oh my god! Who even designs these atrocious dresses for her? Even I feel second hand embarrassment for her.

Anika whispered to herself but Shivaay heard her and burst into laughter.

S- I agree.

Shivaay said while laughing and Anika laughed too.

Ragini walked towards Shivaay and Anika and leaned to hug Shivaay but Anika moved before Shivaay and hugged her.

A- You'll hurt him with your wings.

Anika taunted her and Shivaay was trying to control his laughter.

A- Anyways, thank you for your best wishes.

R- But I didn't.

A- Whatever!

Anika said and shooed her off.

At the same time, Tej and Jhanvi stepped up on the stage and complimented them.

T- its a punjabi celebration and our celebration is incomplete without dance. Come Shivaay, Anika!

Tej said and took Aadi with him.

The song started playing and Jhanvi started dancing with some ladies.

Badhaai Do Badhaai Do
Badhaai Do Badhaai Do
Badhaai Do Badhaai Do
Badhaai Dhai Dhai Dhai Dhai Do

Kahan Se Aaya Raja
Leke Dulhaniya

Shivaay joined the ladies and started dancing and Anika chuckled.

Kahan Se Aaya Raja Leke Dulhaniya
Badhaiyan Do Badhaiyan Do

Chori Chori Chand Chakori
Ka Jo Bhid Gaya Dekho Taanka Ji
Arey Kaka Ji

Tej joined them and danced with Shivaay.

Bhai Ghar Walon Ki Party Ho Gayi
Mood Mein Aa Gaye Dekho Kaka Ji
Arey Kaka Ji

Kya Khoob Mili Hai Jodi
Par Sharmili Hai Thodi
Yeh Chanda Jaisi Bhabhi Puchho
Mili Kaise Bhai Ko

Jhanvi smiled and pulled Anika to the dance floor.

Arey Laya Kahan Se Raja
Pretty Si Dulhaniya
Badhaiyan Do Badhaiyan Do

Arey Laya Kahan Se Raja
Pretty Si Dulhaniya
Badhaiyan Do Badhaiyan Do

Anika and Shivaay looked at each other with a wide smile and did the hook step.

Rabb Ne Mila Di Jodi
Koyi Bhi Kaat Na Paaye
Koyi Na Jaane Kaise
Story Mein Plot Ghusaye

Woh Sukhi Soal Jawani Mein
Aaya Phir Mod Kahani Mein
Arey Rooi Dala Ke Ready Kar Lo
Jaldi Se Rajai Ko

All the relatives showed their dancing talent and Oberoi's chuckled.

Arey Laya Kahan Se Raja
Pretty Si Dulhaniya
Badhaiyan Do Badhaiyan Do

Arey Laya Kahan Se Raja
Pretty Si Dulhaniya
Badhaiyan Do Badhaiyan Do

Shivaay pulled Anika to the stage and they did the hook step.

Nach Nach Ke Badhaiyan Do
Badhaiyan Do Badhaiyan
Nach Nach Ke Badhaiyan Do
Badhaiyan Do Badhaiyan

Nach Nach Ke Badhaiyan Do
Badhaiyan Do Badhaiyan
Nach Nach Ke Badhaiyan Do
Badhaiyan Do Badhaiyan

Badhaai Do Badhaai Do
Badhaai Do

Badhaai Do Badhaai Do
Badhaai Do

All the relatives and family joined Shivika and danced to their heart's content. Suddenly, Anika stopped and looked at the entrance and her eyes got filled with tears.

She saw her parents standing at the door with a smile on their faces.
