LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL - A SHIVI FF

CHAPTER 8 - Will Shiva Dance?

Everyone's hope fades when a cousin of dev arrives in car.

Shiva : Chalo ab aaj hi engagement karni hain.

The ring ceremony completes.

AT NIGHT AT RAAVI'S HOUSE

Raavi checks out the engagement pictures of rishita and dev which she posted on her profile and smiles.

Raavi : Kitne sundar lag rahe hain dono. Kisi ki nazar na lage inko. 

Raavi thinks something and calls prafulla. 

AT HAVELI

Rishita dev krish anita and shiva are sitting in garden and talking. 

Anita : Yaar kya sundar photo aaye haina

Rishita : Abhi sangeet pe concentrate karo guys. Kal se practice chalu karo. Do din baad sangeet hain

Krish : Mein toh Dev ki taraf hoon 

Anita : Mein Rishita ki side.

Shiva : Mein toh apne bhai dev ki side hoon par naachunga nahi.

Rishita : This is so unfair.  Abhi Raavi yaha hoti na toh voh meri side hoti aur hum sab equal hote. 

Dev: Haan voh hain. Shiva tu kyun dance nahi karega meri shaadi vapas nahi honewali. 

Shiva : Mujhe nahi dance karna please force mat kar. 

Shiva looks away sadly.

Anita : Raavi ko miss kar raha haina? 

Krish : Aur tu usse itna kya gussa hain? Voh tere se gussa hain Voh samajta bhi hain.

Shiva gets angry.

Shiva : Tujhe kya laga uska USA jaana achanak se fix hogya.Uska bahot time se plan tha. Par usne hume batana jaruri nahi samjha aur jaaane ke 6 din pehle bata rahi hain. Hum apne hi the na uske. 

Everyone becomes silent. 

Shiva : Aur usne jaate vakht yaad nahi kya bola tha tumlog ko airport pe ki uske liye mein matter nahi karta aur uska kuch nahi lagta. 

FLASHBACK 

AT AIRPORT WHEN RAAVI LEAVES FOR USA

Everyone except Shiva comes to drop her off at Airport. But Raavi didn't knew Shiva was standing far and looking at her.

Rishita : Raavi aisa mat kar please Shiva se baat kar aur bol de ki tu usse pyaar karti hain

Raavi : Pyaar? Kya.? Kisne kaha tumse main usse pyaar karti hoon

Anita : Tumhari aankhon mein hi dikhta hain Raavi

Krish : Usme batane jaisa kya hain koi bhi Bol sakta hain ki tu usse pyaar karti hain

Dev: Haan varna tujhe Sheena se problem hoti nahi

Raav shows her hand to them.

Raavi : Bas hogya mere liye Shiva matter nahi karta aur mujhe usse aur Sheena se koi farak nahi padta. 

Raavi leaves but turns and says

Raavi : Shiva ko bol dena ki uska bojh kam hogya. 

Shiva hears this and gets hurt. He punches his hands in the wall and leaves.

BACK TO PRESENT

Shiva leaves away. All others look at each other and becomes sad.

2 DAYS LATER. 

Sangeet was about to start when Shiva whispers something in DJ'S ear. The programme starts. Dev Rishita look lovingly at all the performances. They also perform on a romantic song. The host arrives on the stage.

Host : Ruko abhi yeh sangeet baki hain. Yeh last performance specially rishita dev ke liye.

Please welcome Shiva on stage. 

Shiva standing beside Dev and Rishita smiles and was about to go on stage but light goes off and spotlight falls on stage.

When a song starts playing.

Ishq haay...

Yo people in the house

This is a tribute to the world of love

Teri aankhon ke matvaale kaajal ko mera salaam

Zulfon ke kale kale baadal ko mera salaam

Teri aankhon ke matvaale kaajal ko mera salaam

Zulfon ke kale kale baadal ko mera salaam

Ghayal kar de mujhe yaar tere paayal ke jhankar

Hey soni sone teri soni har adaah ko salaam

A girl wearing a beautiful kurti palazzo set arrives on the set and starts swaying to the song. She turns shocking everyone. Rishita Dev Krish Anita Gautam Dhara are surprised to see Raavi dancing. 

Shiva gets mesmerized seeing her after a long time. He can't help but just stare at her smile,  her face, her movements and lips. 

Salaam-e-ishq ishq ishq salaam-e-ishq

Salaam-e-ishq ishq ishq salaam-e-ishq

Raavi calls everyone on stage. Everyone runs to her except Shiva who just keeps looking at her with teary eyes.

Song ends. All hug Raavi on stage and gets emotional. They all start asking about her health,  her work,  her whereabouts. When Raavi stops them. 

Raavi : Aree bas bhi karo abhi.  Raat ke liye bhi kuch bachake rakho. Abhi hum sangeet enjoy kare. 

Rishita: I knew it . Tu aayegi hi.

Everyone hug her again and refuse to leave. But somehow Raavi manage to convince them and bring them down. Krish holds her hand and makes her sit beside him. Raavi smiles seeing everyone's excitement when her eyes falls on Shiva who is also looking at her.

Host : Shiva dance karnewale ho na?

Shiva gets startled hearing his name and nods yes.

He goes on stage but keep stealing glances at Raavi which Raavi couldn't help but notice it.

Badtameez dil song plays and Shiva surprisingly after a long time dances happily with full energy. Dhara and Gautam are happy to see him in such a mood and looks at Raavi who is also watching Shiva dance. 

Shiva comes down and takes step towards Raavi who is also looking at him but before Shiva could reach her Prafulla takes her away.

Prafulla : Ae Raavi Chal bahot logo ko tujhse milna hain.

Raavi looks back at Shiva who stops in his tracks and turn away.

Rishita : Guys inko milana toh padega

Krish : Haan mere pass ek idea hain

Krish whispers something. Everyone join hands and smiles.
