The mehendi function and sangeeth were total celebration as it was in typical royal way. On the insistence of the elders rikara were not allowed to see and talk to each other. But they were truly missing each other, wondering why they had this sort of feeling. During sangeeth everyone asked rikara to perform, but they didn't because Om's hand was sprained and moreover both were so shy to do a performance in front of everyone. But the lovely shivika Jodi had a romantic performance. They were dancing like they were in a different world on the song "tumhe apna banane ka junoon". Even Tejvi and shinky couples danced. Om was actually restless to spend sometime with gouri as he heard this song. But first of all they were not allowed to meet & moreover he thought gouri wouldn't like it. At times he felt that she had feelings for him; but he wasn't sure. He didn't want to pressurize her.He decided to give away every decisions to her.

He just wanted a break away from all this noise so he decided to go to balcony for some peace.

As he went there he saw that all lights in balcony were switched off.Only the full moon's silky light was there. As he moved forward, he heard the sound of anklets; he wondered whom it could be. As he walked forward, he was stunned to see that view; it was gouri. Her face was lit up by soft moonlight & she was literally glowing like an angel. She was wearing a netted lehenga of white & blue combination. The moonlight seeped into her lehenga to give her a divine look. Om's poetic mind was slowly being activated. He just wanted to see her like that for the whole night.

His thoughts were disturbed by Gouri's voice.
" ka hua omkaraji?"
Om couldn't speak. He wondered why she was making this sort of effect on him.He wass still confused with his feelings.
" kuch nahi gouri. I ..I just wanted to enjoy this sight.
"what sight omkaraji?"
Suddenly he realized his mistake.
" this...this night sky gouri." he tensedly replied.
G: tumhe dekha meri mehendi.
She asked excitedly.
But Om was just seeing her face. How perfectly this moonlight was highlighting her features!!!
G: did u see how much this mehendi has darkened. Even Didi's mehendi has not darkened this much.
Do you know, as the  mehendi darkens more, it means the ladki would be loved very much by her sasural.... specially by her pati!!!"

Gouri thought about what she told only after a moment. She was at the same time tensed and blushing. She was tensed as to what Om would be thinking. But instead she saw that his eyes were having a special glow.

She  smiled at him vaguely and ran away; she felt so heavy to face him. Om was anxious, he was feeling a warmth in his heart. He stood there for some more time adoring the moon and thinking about Gouri...

As all the rasams were over, both the families were getting ready to move to Mumbai for the marriage. There was only one day gap for the marriage. All reached OM safely and have settled. The mahurat for the marriage was on the next day, in the evening.Both the families were having their own time. Media was not allowed for one day as so many preparations were left. The public attention was high because it was the marriage of oberois and the Jodhpur royal family. Kalyani dadi was very excited because it is the first time oberois were being bonded with a royal family. There were a whole lot of guests who came to attend the wedding; on the whole , OM was very active that day.

Gouri was getting ready in her room. She was preparing to visit the mata ki temple where she had first visited when she came to Mumbai for the first time.She decided to go alone as all were busy. Moreover she wanted to spend some time alone in the temple.

She had asked permission from dadi and jiji. She wanted to ask Om , but she saw that he was enjoying with his brothers; so she thought not to disturb him.

It was almost 7 pm. Om was going to meet Gouri to show her the photos of their pre marriage wedding shoot. She was very reluctant and uncomfortable at first for the shoot but then both were amazing in the whole session; the photographers told. Om remembered, she was so shy to do some close postures but he had made her comfortable. But those pics turned out to be so romantic & classy. He was again and again seeing those photos and adoring them. But as he entered the room, he saw her missing. He began searching for her in the whole mansion. All gave the same answer that she had gone to temple but no one saw her coming back.

Om's heart was beating like hell, his hands were cold and shivering. Her phone was switched off all the time.

It was almost 9 pm and there was no information of her. All the guests had gone but the families were tensed. Anika was continuously crying. Shivru were frantically searching for her whereas Om was sitting blank. He was nearly having a chest pain . He was feeling very heavy. He was not able to bear the tension.

For the first time , he went to Mandir . He was folding his hands and crying .  This was becoming unbearable.He went to his room and opened his draw which had some leftover drugs & syringes. But Gouri's face came to his memory and he threw away all bottles.

He went to shiv parvathi idol in his room. This was her favorite idol when she was his student & so he had brought it to home.He was asking Sankarji to give her back to him.

Suddenly his phone rang. He nearly jumped when he  saw her name on it. He took the phone and cried out her name.

" Omkaraji.... please save me...or he will...he ....."
Om's mind was engulfed by fear.
" Gouri... I will...I will..where are you??....just tell me..."
" woh....mein...mein ... bareilly...."

Suddenly someone snatched the phone away and Om heard another voice....a voice which made his blood boil...
" Sehri babu!!!!"

Om growled...."KALI!!!!!!! How dare you."
"Slowly Omkara sirji, tumhari hone wali patni...nah....meri hone wali patni Gouri is safe here."
" don't tell her name with your filthy tongue. Else I will chop it off!!!!"

" oh sirji, I thought of marrying secretly. But she became over smart. Its ok , I'm in bareilly. Any way you won't be able to rescue her nor you will escape if you come here. So, see our marriage and you can go to heaven peacefully.My people will come to your gallery in 15 min. You have to come with them. Don't take your idiot brothers with you. Don't even dare to tell them the location, then you will not see even her ashes!!!"

" Fine...fine ...I...I. will come but don't even dare to touch my gouri.Now just give the phone to her...fast!!"

He heard her crying.
"Gouri... please dear don't worry.I will come...for sure my dear... please don't cry."
"mujhe pata Omkaraji that you will come. Sankarji will save us...but please please be careful.
" I will gouri.... I won't give you to him...I want you... I can't live my life  without you....!!!!" he siad by crying. Both rikara didn't realize what they were saying, because of their tension and anxiety.....

Om was in a Jeep surrounded by kali's people. It was surrounded by many other jeeps filled with kali's people; all were armed with swords.

He was led to a dark room blind folded. As his fold was removed he saw a dishevelled gouri tied on to the chair. She was smiling through her tears seeing him; her attire was terrific. He couldn't see her like this . As he moved forward, a hand caught his neck tightly, it was kali.

He was smirking. Gouri was tired but she started screaming.She felt that her heart would collapse now. Kali asked his men to catch Om.

Kali went to gouri and untied her. He was holding her sideways. Rikara were very much disturbed by their position. They were led outside where there was a small temple. Mandap arrangements were done.
" before our marriage sirji, we have to do a bali; to sacrifice a human life. You are perfect for this, isn't it sirji."

Gouri was so tensed. She began praying Sankarji to show her some way to escape.
Om was very angry. He fought almost all the men who were catching him. A raged kali took a sword and attacked Om lashing it on his chest.

Gouri screamed. Om managed to balance and not fall. It was painful..Not the wound on his chest but Gouri's screams.

Om was taking few steps backward, but kali was moving forward to lash the sword. As he raised his sword Om closed his eyes and turned his head but he heard gouri's scream instead.

As he opened his eyes he saw that most terrific view. Gouri had come in between him and Kali and....Kali had stabbed gouri.....

Om couldn't bear this as a heavily bleeding gouri fell on Om's hand....His hands were wet with her blood.

Om screamed to the top of his voice. KALI!!!!!!!
