" Dharma hahahhaha !!! " Dushasan laughed while ploughing a field along with his brothers " HE MARRIED A WOMAN NAMED Dharma !!! ".
" Imagine how many white hairs Pitamah will get !! " Gurmukh said and others laughed even more.
" I wonder if Dharma received lectures on dharma while consummating their marriage on their wedding night ? " Duryodhan smirked and all his brothers guffawed with laughter.
The villagers on whose land they were farming for and helping also laughed.
The Kauravas had been going around Aryavart for months, helping villagers and farming lands to help feed them while also helping fight bandits and other Adharmis.
They had gained love among the people and found freedom outside the political environments of Hastinapur.
Suddenly, Duryodhan looked to be in disbelief and was pleasantly surprised when he saw Ashwatthama approach him.
" welcome to Anga, Ashu ! ... what's with your face ? " Duryodhan raised an eyebrow at Ashwatthama's grumpy face.
" your pitamah has become insufferable ! " Ashwatthama irritably said " he takes his anger out on courtiers, makes up excuses by pointing out our non-existing flaws, insults us every time and calls us lazy Donkeys ! ".
The Kauravas were laughing as Ashwatthama was complaining.
" and also, Sindhuraj wanted your sister as his concubine " Asheatthama added.
" WHAT ?!! " the entire Kaurava clan had fury in their eyes.
" Calm down... Arjun responded in full when he destroyed Jayadrath's army. He then filled Jayadrath's body with arrows and he literally lied on a deathbed full of arrows on the ground, suffering in his last moments ".
" Dushasan, remind me to apologize to Arjun and the rest of our Pandav brothers for our past messes. We don't appreciate them enough " Duryodhan admitted and his brothers nodded.
Ashwatthama was very surprised to see the changes in these Kauravas. Yesterday, the cousins would fight like Dogs, but today Duryodhan himself is telling he would apologize to Pandav and calls them brothers with respect !.
Things really were changing for the better.
-
" Are we there yet ? ".
" For the 49th time, Sahira. No ! " Karn said in annoyance.
They had been traveling for some time now.
Karn really loved Sahira but she could be too much for him sometimes. She told him about things in places they visited that are not going to happen yet. Radha had thankfully understood him as she also suffered from the constant chatter and kept Atihara occupied with tasks.
The 'are we there yet' questions were even more annoying.
Thankfully, they had finally reached Vidharba borders.
They spotted a carriage with a man that wore a morpankh crown on his head. He was Krishna.
The person next to him made Karn raise his bow while the man also raised his bow.
" Woah, woah, woah ! " Sahira exclaimed and Radha smacked her forehead.
" shant parth " Krishna held down his friend's bow " you calm down too, Radheya ".
Karn listened to the Avatar of Vishnu.
" DDLJ karne ke liye apni ex-girlfriend ko Kyu bulvaya ? " Sahira raised an eyebrow while looking at a blushing Radha.
" Mai Radha se vivaah karna chahta hoon " Krishna confessed.
They were all shocked.
Krishna knelt down in front of a shocked Radha " for Dharmsthapna, I had to abandon you. There is not a moment where I never stopped loving you, Radha... I once thought that sacrifices have to be made to write down stories to make changes in society, but time itself is changing and so are the people. I wish to listen to my heart which points towards you .... will you marry me, Radha ? ".
Radha was tearful and hugged Krishna as she nodded, and Krishna hugged her with joyful tears in his eyes.
-
It was supposed to be a joyful moment as Krishna and Radha's ceremony was being conducted by a local Brahmin and Karn, Arjun and Sahira were throwing flowers at the marrying couple.
It was ruined by Sahira's constant questions thrown at Arjun.
" your wife is a Naagin, isn't she ? " Sahira asked Arjun, but her mouth formed into a wide smile " so... how did you get her pregnant ?. I mean I know that she came in human form but what does a pregnant ichhadari naagin look like ?, and have you learned Naagin dance ?!!.... do you do it with each other while she is in snake form or is it the bed - ".
" Sahira ! " Karn exclaimed in embarrassment and amusement, while Krishna was rolling in laughter, and Arjun was hardcore blushing. Radha looked mortified.
Even the Panditji was shocked.
-
The next morning, Arjun asked Shree Krishna " Madhav, what is our plan to help you elope with rajkumari Rukmini ? ".
" I have a perfectly thought out plan " Krishna smiled and Karn looked uncomfortable.
" Kya Raj babu ?!. Arre apko Simran mil gayi, ab aap Preeti ke sath DDLJ karenge ? " Sahira exasperatedly asked
" what's DDLJ ? " Arjun asked Karn in exasperation.
" It's better if you don't know " Karn whispered while shaking his head.
" Sahira... Rukmini and I are both avatars of Lakshmi " Radha said " I have no problem with it ".
" You are the most well adjusted co-wife I have ever met..... which is also disturbing since that co-wife will be you and not you at the same time " Sahira smirked.
Radha groaned " I will NOT miss your confusing and disturbing words in my Sasural ".
" I am the only one of my kind in this Yug " Sahira grinned.
Krishna fondly shook his head while taking out 2 Saris and held them out in front of a mortified Karn and Arjun " your disguises for the plan ".
-
Arjun and Karn both came in disguises of woman, draped in sareee and sindoor with despair on their faces as Krishna smiled " my dear Brihannala and Apoorva are finally ready ".
Sahara was busy rolling on the floor with laughter.
" And why is my little brother not ready yet " Krishna smiled at her.
" What ?! " all her smile disappeared.
-
Karn laughed as he saw Sahara come out in the disguise of a man with a bushy beard. Arjun only snickered at that.
" let's go, dear Gabbar "
" Seriously ?!! " Sahara shrieked in agitation at the name from Sholay that he decided to give her.
Karn fell to the floor in laughter " let's go before Thakur arrives, my dear Gabbar ! ".
" I really regret telling you about movies " Sahira rolled her eyes.
