Everyone needs love to complete themselves.
Narayan needs Mata Laxmi, Mahadev needs Mata Parvati.
But what about Amarsri ? Who would be eligible for the mighty Harihareshwari herself ? Suitable for the one who is both Narayan and Mahadev ?
The answ...
"Shreeshaktishwar ?" Amarsri asked with teared eyes.
"Ha priye." Shreeshaktishwar said.
She looked at him and held his hand, as few tears streamed down her face. He wiped them away as the gods showered flowers from above.
"Chalo priye, humara lok humari pratiksha kar raha hai." Amarsri said.
"Abhi nahi priye." Amardev said.
"Kintu kyu ?" Amarsri asked.
"Vivah ke paschat." Amardev said smiling.
"Awashya." Amarsri chuckled.
"Kintu meri ek vinti hai." Amardev said.
"Ha batao." Amarsri said.
"Amardev ke roop mai maine sadev jeevan bhar apni chitra se prem kiya hai. Kya mera vivah uss Amarsri se ho sakta hai ?" Amardev asked.
"Awashya." Amarsri said.
《TIME SKIP》
Amardev in his complete groom attire was waiting for Amarsri to come. Vikram was teasing him endlessly. All the gods were present to witness the Amar milan.
Soon Amarsri came and they both exchanged garlands, accepting each other. Amardev admired her, she came exactly how he imagined, as the woman of her paintings.

"Var aur vadhu sthan grahan kare." Brahmadev who was officiating the wedding said.
They both sat down but an important question came up.
"Amarsri ka Kanya-daan kaun karega ? Narayan ya Mahadev ?" Brahmadev asked.
"Narayan ko karna chahiye !" Someone said.
"Nahi-Nahi Mahadev ko karna chahiye !" The other one said.
Narayan and Mahadev looked at each other, both wanted to do her Kanya-daan but didn't wanted to the other to become upset. Then a plan crossed both their minds.
"Hum dono hi karenge." Narayan said and Mahadev nodded.
They both held each other's hand and divine light emerged from them. When the lights dimmed everyone bowed and knelt in front of the divine form of Harihar.

"Kanya-daan ki vidhi aarambh kare ?" Harihar asked.
"Awashya." Brahmadev chuckled.
Together they both did Amarsri's Kanya-daan. This ritual signifies both the acceptance of the Bride's Father and his official approval to give his daughter away.

Vaishno devi smiled and came forward tying their knot for eternity and beyond.
"Ab var aur vadhu, fero ke liye khade ho jaye." Brahmadev said.
Both Amardev and Amarsri stand up and started their feras. Only when the bride and the groom take the 7 vows keeping the holy pyre as the witness, they are called as married.

"Ab samay hai sindoor daan ka." Brahmadev said.
Amardev took a pinch of sindoor as Mata Parvati and Mata Laxmi held up Amarsri's maangtika.
Amardev fills the parting of her hair with sindoor, the true symbol of marriage.

"Vivah sampan huya !" Brahmadev proclaimed and all the gods cheered.
Amarsri and Amardev looked at each other and smiled. Finally together for eternity and beyond.
Amarsri smiled as Amardev has completed the journey from a mortal to a Revered God. Both of them are equal to each other, both of them are incomplete without each other.
