Guys this chapter is a bit idhar udhar but please forgive as I have lost my flow of writing. I will edit this as soon as I am in flow.

Urmila was all ready for the sangeet that was happening due to the courtesy of Chhaya, who had even made Shri Ram learn a dance which she herself choreo'ed. 
An hour later, they assembled in the hall that was decorated by Chhaya herself. "Oye tune electricity kahan se generate ki?" Urmila asked in a low looking around. "Arey vo to bass jalwa hai humara." Chhaya whispered back and her friend looked at her unimpressed. "You remember hum tere hi ek gadget mein hain." She whispered and Urmila mouthed 'acha haan' in realisation. 
Chhaya went on the stage while everyone else took a seat. "To aap sabhi ka iss utsav pe hardik swagat hai. Guru ji kahan hai?" She asked looking around. "Vo nhi aa rhe. Vo vishram kr rhe hain." Angad answered. 
"Acha koi na. Hum unhe kal dhanyawad bol denge. Aur dhanyawad humari well humari nhi Lakshman ji ki dulhan Urmila ka jiske yantra mein ye utsav ho rha hai. To hum phle ek khel khelte hain." Chhaya said and everyone exchanged glances thinking what it would be. 
"Game ka naam hai 'Pehchano kaun?' Ismein sabse phle sare purushon ke aankhon par baari baari se patti bandhi jayegi aur sare streeyan apne apne haatho ke abhushan badal lengi aur ek line mein khadi ho jayengi. Aapko un hathon ko sparsh krke apni patni ko pehchanna hai." She explained. 
"Naam se to bhutiya lag rha tha par acha hai." Ram said. "Kyu bhaisaab aap pehchan payenge Chitra ka haath?" Sunaina asked Kushadwaj making the couple blush. They blindfolded Janak first and all the ladies exchanged their jewelleries and stood in a line with Shrutkirti in the beginning followed by Sunaina, Chandrabhaga, a few other relatives and Urmila in the end. 
Janak first touched Shrutkirti's hands and immediately recognised her as his daughter. He then moved forward and touched his wife's hands. He touched them very carefully and moved forward shocking Sunaina. He then returned to stand in front of her and again touched her hands and recognised her opening his blindfold. "Maharaj aapne zaroor aunty ji ko heart attack de diya tha udhar." Chhaya said making everyone laugh. 
Then was the turn of Shatrughan. This time Shrutkirti was in the last and Urmila was first but she was wearing the jewellery of the former. He touched her hands and thought for a while. He again touched her hands making her eyebrow twitch in amusement. "Ye hi hai meri Shrutkirti." He said with so much surity but when he opened the blindfold he paled that it was his bhabhishree that he had said instead of his wife. He looked at her and apologized through his eyes and discreetly held on ear in apology. 
Like this the game continued and finally it was the turn of Lakshman. This time Urmila was in the near end. He stepped in front of the first lady and moved forward without even touching her hand. "Arey jija ji haath se pta lgana hai. Aap to aese hi chl diye." Chhaya said. 
"Shh." Lakshman said indicating her to keep quiet by putting a finger on his lips. He passed everyone and came to stand in front of Urmila and took her hands and confirmed it was her. Everyone was shocked. "Lakshman ye tumne kaise kiya?" Bharat asked. "Bhaiya inhone abhushan badle parantu gandh kaise badalte? To maine Mila ki gandh aur uski chudi ki khanak se use dhunda." Lakshman said making Urmila blush. Everyone praised him and then the performances started. 
"To sabse phle welcome krte hain Shree Ram aur Shree Bharat ka." Chhaya said after lots of talks. 

                            
                              
                                
                                
                              
                            
                            
                          
A/n: I couldn't find anything better than this.
"WOW! I didn't knew you both had it in you!" Chhaya praised. "Hume bhi kaha pta tha." Bhrata muttered as both of them came down the stage. Then it was turn of Shatrughan and Shrutkirti. 

                            
                              
                                
                                
                              
                            
                            
                          
Everyone was left impressed by this. "Bhai bhai bhai. Ye to aag tha. Maja aa gya." Chhaya complimented and Shrutkirti bowed a little in thanks. After all the performances, only 2 performances were left. One of Chhaya and other of Lakshmila. 
"Okay so now its turn of Chhaya and that's me." She said making some chuckle and some facepalm. 

                            
                              
                                
                                
                              
                            
                            
                          
Chhaya, Urmila, Sunaina, Chandrabhaga, Kushadwaj and Janak all were in tears by the end of this song. They didn't understand some words but the they clearly understood the feeling. 
Chhaya wiped her tears and said,"Ok now the most awaited performance of our Bride and Groom, i.e. Urmila and Lakshman." Lakshman practically pulled her along in excitement. 

                            
                              
                                
                                
                              
                            
                            
                          
All were surprised how well they had prepared in just 2 hours with Lakshman not having any knowledge of dance. "Jija ji aapko inmein se ek bhi gane ka matlab pta tha?" Chhaya asked. "Nhi. Mila khti ki tum nritya yaad karlo bhot hai. Agar matlab janne pe aaye to pura din nikal jayega." He said imitating Urmila. 
"Okay so there's one more surprise performance." Chhaya said after Lakshman and Urmila had taken their seats. All the lights went black. 

                            
                              
                                
                                
                              
                            
                            
                          
A/n: Imagine SRK as Hanuman, Saif as Angad and Preity as Chhaya, Jaya Bachhan as Sunaina and rest upto you. 
This time tears were really flowing freely from Urmila's eyes. "Lo rula diya bechari ko. Kitne gande ho tum log." Chhaya said to Hanuman and Angad and both of them glared at her. Urmila jumped on the stage, literally jumped, she didn't even climb the stairs just jumped, and took the mike from Chhaya. 
"Okay, mujhe pta hai mujhe aise nhi krna chaiye khas krke tab jab maine lehenga phn rkha ho. Par mujhe ye khna hai ki thank you. Aap sabhi ko bhot bhot thank you ki aapne aaj ka ye din mere liye bhot jyada special bna diya. Vaise to parivar ko thank you nhi bolte par phir bhi. Charumati, Chitrangad aap dono ka bhi bhot bhot shukriya ki aapne Kaya ke saath vala dance bigada nhi." She said turning to Hanuman and Angad. 
"Charumati? Chitrangad?" They asked. She nodded pointing at both. They opened their mouth to correct her but decided against it and closed it again sighing. After a few more games and fun, they retired for the night.
