(Manik and Riya reach Malhotra Mansion and go to their room. Riya then goes to get fresh and comes out after some time.)

Manik- Great. Now come, let's eat.

Riya (chuckling)- Haan Manik khaa lungi main. Relax.

[Riya (chuckling)- Yes, Manik. I will eat. Relax.]

Manik- But mujhe bhookh lagi hai yaar. Jaldi karo.

[Manik- But I am hungry. Hurry.]

(She looks on at him, shocked at this statement.)

Riya- You are hungry too? Why?

Manik- Matlab main bhi insaan ka hi bacha hoon naa. To mujhe bhi bhookh lagti hai.

[Manik- Means I am also a child of a human being, right? So I feel hungry too.]

Riya- Manik tum ne khaana nahi khaya?

[Riya- Manik, you haven't eaten?]

Manik- Vo mujhe tab bhookh nahi thi.

[Manik- I was not hungry then.]

(But inside, he knows that the actual reason was something else. He was not feeling good when she was not around, so he couldn't eat without her.)

Riya- And why weren't you hungry, Manik? Hmm?

Manik- If not, it was not there, man. Don't do this now. And now I am hungry. So be quick now.

Riya- Okay, okay. Come now.

(They both then go down. They have just reached the dining area when Cabir comes to them.)

Cabir- Bhabhi, you have done wonders. You are genuinely a rock star.

Riya (smiling)- Thank you so much, Cabir.

(Cabir then sees Mukti passing from there, so he speaks loudly to tease her.)

Cabir- Baakiyon ka to pata nahi Bhabhi, but iss ghar mein bhi kuch log aise hain, jin ko ek doctor ki bohot zarurat hai. I mean you, of course. So please unn he bhi theek kar do.

[Cabir- I don't know about others, sister-in-law, but some people in this house also need a doctor. I mean you, of course. So please, treat them too.]

(Manik chuckles at Cabir's remarks, and Riya signs them to be quiet as she sees Mukti coming to them. Manik shakes his head in disbelief and goes to a side to answer a call.)
