Next Day
"Namaste Mata ji." The priest greets Jayanti Devi.
"Namaste. Please sit." She says.
"What happened yesterday? Did you like the family?" He asks out of curiousness.
"They both are not a good match. I don't want to jeopardize Ishika's life." Jayanti tries to shrug off the topic.
"Forget about that. You were saying you wanted to check Ishika's birth chart. Do you have any proposals for her?" She asks him while instructing the house help to bring tea.
"Jii. But before stating anything I'll like to check her chart. Please ask someone to bring it." He
requests her, taking out other birth chart give by Tejaswini.Jayanti Devi nods and goes to her room to fetch the kundali from her Almira.

Rajvansh Mansion
Tejaswini is continuously glaring at Arjun in anger meanwhile, he is trying his best not to look at his mother.
"Mom, why are you glaring at Arjun now? Were you planning to tell me all this on the day itself?" Abhiraj questions his mother discontentedly.
"Abhiraj, I would have told you once the things confirm." Tejaswini tries to explain him.
"I don't want to get married. I am fine the way I am now. Why do you want to force me into something, I clearly hate? And if I want a commitment, I'll take my own decisions." He snaps, hating this whole talk.
" I'll never ask you to choose someone for me. "
" You will. Whether you like it or not. If you want the chairmanship of the board, you'll get married to the girl I choose, like a good son. And no questions on that. Otherwise you can happily quit the company. " Tejaswini glares at him, not ready to back down from an argument.
"What less can I expect from you." He scoffs
She glares at his retreating back.
"Mom I did not do it intentionally. Bhai is just extra smart, he made me spit out. I am sorry." Arjun runs behind his brother yelling a not-so-serious apology.
"You'll do what I want Abhiraj
I am your mother. Let's see how you'll not get married." Her smile hardening.
..........................Pandit jii was keenly reading Ishika's chart.
"Mata Ji as expected your granddaughter's chart has a dosh forming in the 8th house. She can't get married to anyone.
Her chart should be matched with the boy's having this same dosh forming in his Chart." Pandit Ji explains Jayanti Devi, relieved.He was correct about the assumption.
Hearing this Jayanti Devi becomes tensed. It was already difficult for them to find a rishta for Ishika and now this.
"How'll we get her married?" She murmurs to herself but unwillingly pandit ji hears her words.
"Umm Mata Ji. I know a family who has approached me to find a good rishta for their son.
He also has the same dosh in his chart. And coincidently Ishika beti has this yog in her 8th house. And this is the exact condition required in a girl's chart who is going to marry him. It's very difficult to find a chart compatible in this way, that too this soon. I don't know what to say about this...this is rare." Pandit ji lays out everything in open.
"You might have heard about the Rajvansh family." He adds.
Jayanti Devi nods," I have met the family. Damad Ji has also closely worked with them. But I don't think they'll agree for Ishika. She will not match their standards." She states dubiously.
She has met the family. They are too royal, and their way of living is far different from hers. Ishika is a very simple girl no show-off nothing. She has very minimal needs nothing extravagant.
"Before coming to you, I met Tejaswini bahu. I can't explain why and how but I think they'll accept, especially if it's your family. You'll never know before meeting them." He tries to pacify her since he knew what is best for both the kids.
"Do you have any photos of the boy? His name? Age?" She asks him considering his words.
"His name is Abhiraj Singh Rajvansh. He is 31years old. Here, this is his photo." He shows her the photo Tejaswini gave him.
Jayanti Devi shakes her head seeing Abhiraj's picture.
"I don't think this will work. They are no match." She couldn't help but speak her thoughts out loud.
But before any one of them could speak further, Ashok interrupts them.
"That's fine Mata Ji. Let's meet the family. We can't marry her to anyone. Our Family's reputation matters a lot and a family like Rajvansh's can't be ignored just because of this. We should meet them and see what happens, if pandit Ji is also sure they'll agree with the proposal I think there's no harm." He says, he was sitting in the dining area letting his mother handle the situation.
Jayanti Devi nods not wanting to suppress her son's opinion.
"You present Ishika's rishta from our side to Rajvansh's family." Ashok tells pandit Ji.
"Okay. I'll try to meet them as soon as possible. Since their family is in a hurry for the marriage, so you'll get a reply soon.
I'll take my leave now." Offering his greetings he leaves but not before asking for a photo of Ishika.
