I just wanted you to come. Really enjoyed seeing you. You are so beautiful Mansi. No no, I didn't tell you to be happy, what do I need to make you happy? On the contrary, you may have a suspicion that after our current visit, maybe ... I mean, not realizing that I am smiling. But you are truly beautiful. Pathwa likes long hair, even though your hair is short ... I mean .. you are beautiful .. you can be the inspiration of Pathwa so beautiful. But isn't everyone's definition of beauty different? This is the definition of path, I know, or I think I know. Does beauty need inspiration? Maybe yes, maybe no. But the poet can only act as a beauty stimulant for the heart. And it looks like there is only external beauty, right? When do you see inner beauty? I mean ... feel? Let's leave it at that.

You must be shocked. I called you to meet me like this. Today is the release of Pathwa's ghazal collection, and also Valentine's Day. No, no, not awkward. You can also meet Pathwa after our visit. I never stopped it. However, what if I stop now? But to be honest, it's not in my nature to stop. If he is happy then we are happy. I just understand such a simple thing. So yes, what will you take? Do you like sugar, black coffee? Don't look like that. Pathway has told me a lot about you. You like coffee a lot, you don't get distracted while drinking coffee, you don't compromise on the taste of coffee. And ... can't drink coffee anywhere, anywhere. The coffee here will cost you. Yes, I know a lot about you, about your choice because our friendship is still intact, and will remain. He can't stay light with me until he tells me what Pathwa is like. And he told me this a long time ago, I mean .... Pathav and you..no no..I will not say any bad words. You say What about your relationship? Love? Attraction? Infatuation?

Mansi, don't look at me like this. I am Pathav's wife. Half of the relationship accepted by the society. and you? What would you say if someone asked you? Girlfriend? Divorced girlfriend of a married poet? Anyone would want to know about the relationship between such a great writer and a ghazal writer, and you are also very popular. People must be interested to know about you. What do you say then Can you show courage like the female characters in your stories, say you love Pathwa? Or confuse the questioner with the magic of your clever wordplay? Winking is not the answer. What is this Why did your palm freeze like ice? No, I haven't come to you literally once. All I have to say to you is about the path, which you may not know. Don't die in satire. It is possible that you have not yet reached this point in your relationship. Also, Pathav cannot tolerate rejection and lies at all. Its text is as simple and accurate as its ego. Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like BT aint for me either. You have to decide now what you will answer to such a question in any of your interviews. You are alone Divorce. Your family may not be affected by any of your answers. But whatever you answer is very important to Pathav, and Pathav to me. This question I am not asking a writer, I am asking another woman in my husband's life. What will you be able to give to Pathwa in your future life? What can you do for it? You know, when it comes to crying, don't be surprised. Don't cry What if it's male? Is it sensitive? Is there anything I can tell you? Of course you must know. Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like BT aint for me either. You have to keep your head in your lap, turn your hands over your head and sleep Sometimes even the lullaby has to be sung. Don't smile, I'm telling the truth! Nothing crazy should sound weird, and special to you! What did you say Aren't you crazy Very nice I liked Only then will you be able to save it! So ... sometimes it's possible to be with you and cry, right?

You must know that when he drinks tea and at the same time he drinks anything other than tea, he pours tea in it? I'm in the habit of drinking Bournevita with tea, you must have tasted coffee with tea too, right? What did you say You don't know Don't mind Did you find out today? This is because the upcoming events do not shock you. Yes, you have to compromise with your favorite coffee. Will it happen What did you say Pathway hasn't done that yet? Which means it's about to be the most delusional time of the year, as well. A lot of restraint ... the rest is not a man of restraint. You must know. Yes, I understand. Many visits will be to your home, in private. So isn't tea and coffee mixed then ...? OK..OK..Javado. I entered a private area. Exit ...

No, no. Don't think that I'm giving up. Because I know, it can't live without me. Not proud but I'm used to it. I have nurtured her habits. And it is also my decision not to bring a child until the mood of this poet is stabilized. Do you understand how many responsibilities a child has to carry? Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like BT aint for me either.

All I have to say to you is, Pathav has accepted your relationship. Maybe he won't be wrong if there is a question about you in his book release. Are you ready for that Are you ready for the two questions that will come your way after the answer? I don't know what you would say if you got up tomorrow and asked in public by reporters or one of your so many fans. But you also need to know what to say. Whatever answer you give, are you ready for the outcome? There are times when a journalist will ask me two questions about your relationship with Pathav. I know what I'm saying, but you don't know. What I say and what you say is completely different. This is not a novel to be rewritten, it is life.

The other woman in your husband's life you could not bear and broke up over the same. And what are you in Pathwa's Life? Don't be discouraged. I don't want an answer. You answer yourself. Don't be confused. You can talk to Pathav if you want, call me right now ...? OK. OK..maybe shy. But now you have to make a decision about this, don't you? Your husband is also set with the other, but I will never leave the path. Can you accept this second place? For yourself? For society? For the path? Loved, no offense. And I did not come to punish you. But you think enough.

Let me tell you an experience. Before we both came to live in this house, I planted a few plants in our house, in which Rose Pathwa liked very much. We both lived together .... yes, that means I used to live there alone! Then .. after our marriage I also planted Ratarani there. Every night, Pathav would wake up immediately with the smell of it. After a while, for some reason, it faded. Maybe there are pests ...! I planted tuberose there. And its fragrance was replaced by Rajnigandha. The scent of Rajnigandha also intoxicated the path. Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like BT aint for me either. The rose is still there, but the arrival of Rajnigandha instead of Ratarani has not changed the path. Maybe he didn't even notice that Rajnigandha was smelling it instead of Ratarani. It simply means getting drunk. Maybe tomorrow there will be Mogro instead of Rajnigandha?

One more thing, I am the first woman in Pathav's life. You second. Are you ready for the possibility that someone else may come after you ..? For the happiness of the path, I have greeted not only your arrival, but also your presence. Will you be able to welcome a new arrival in the life of Pathava after you? I'm not proud of being the first, that's the situation, but you're not the final one - just for the sake of informing.

am. .H .... let it be. I'll pay the bill. I have a habit. Hey, why are your eyes wide? If I am a member of the household, is it a habit? You know super, don't live by poems or ghazals. No, I don't brag, but I don't allow Pathwa to have enough space to write and do anything else under a tedious burden. And you are also very interested in publishing his book! Helped too! Would this be possible without it? Yes, there is a book release program in a few hours now. I hope you get out of here with your decision. Because I know, right from here you will come to Pathwa's book release. Will you come
