Okay, but Simon marrying an Indian girl…
Hear me out, okay???
He is a man who, before meeting his girl, had a very mundane life. A gray life, lacking color and warmth. No family outside of work. So when he wasn't deployed, he was alone.
And it’s assumed he’s someone who wants to be left alone, but then he gets thrust into this huge family…. And it’s like breathing again.
Relatives coming to stay with them for several weeks? No worries he has plenty of room. He’s the only fun uncle of the group who never gets tired of entertaining the kids. There is always something going on. Birthdays, holidays. Puja that his mother-in-law insists on doing over FaceTime whenever she’s not in the country.
Trading his Yorkshire tea for Chai.
Who doesn’t mind talking to his mother-in-law over the phone when his wife had her fill. Who is absolutely on board with starting on giving her grandkids.
Simon who never had so much as a birthday cake growing up, now gets his own boxes of homemade barfi and mysore pak. And even though his wife isn’t too found of cooking, he could eat her maggi everyday for the rest of his life.
The only thing in his entire marriage he doesn’t like, in fact hates, is when she fasts. Not in general. But for his health. The first year of marriage when Karva Chauth came up, he figured it was like Diwali or Holi. But when she explained she won’t eat until the moonrises, he wasn’t having it. He swore he hadn’t died yet and she could risk it. The next day he ordered enough take out, it lasted them three days breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Simon who learns how to help his wife pin her saree in place when her mother around to help.
Simon who begins to have a life in his 30s. Who laughs more and smiles often.
Who is thankful everyday that he got out of the gray.

desi imagine masterlist
[4:15 am]
My alarm went off, and I was about to go and check my phone but I felt Jeonghan pulling me closer by my waist. “Hannie” I spoke in a very low tone; I had to get up no matter what. “Umm, stay here” I slowly removed his hands from my waist. “I need to get up” I kissed his cheeks lightly and got up; I checked the time and it was already 4 am. I got up and went to take a shower and got ready. Once I was done, I heard a knock on the door. I fixed myself a bit then switched off the night lights and switched on the lights and then went to open the door of our bedroom.
“Noor” I looked at her and smiled, “maa”
“Come down” I nodded, I closed the door carefully because he was still sleeping and I don’t want to disturb his sleep, he already came late home yesterday night and looked so tired.
“Your sargi” I was actually amazed how she kept everything, she made for me, an overwhelming feeling hit me, this was going to be my first Karva Chauth, I had to keep fast until we see the moon. “You have to eat this before sunrise and you have to keep the fast” I nodded and smiled at her. I went took her blessings and took the full big plate of sargi back to my room. I was kind of excited and I had an unknowing loving overwhelming feeling inside.
I opened the door slowly and saw Jeonghan sanding near the window, I was surprised for a second and then slowly closed the door. “Hannie” I called out his name and kept the thali on the table near our bed. He turned to look at me, “Noor” he smiled at me.
“Maa gave you sargi?” I nodded and sat on the bed. I let out a sigh, he came near me, “why are you sighing? You don’t want to keep the fast?” I shook my head, “no, it’s not like that” I gave him a look. I was feeling excited and overwhelming because it’s my first time. He shrugged off and then said “you know these look tasty?” I nodded. “Maa made these” I smiled looking at everything she made. She made gobhi stuffed paratha, paneer ki sabji, kheer, she kept few almonds, fruits, sewai with almonds and dates, coconut water. I saw Jeonghan pick up the bowl which had kheer, I looked at him with a confused face.
“What? I want to taste as well” I gave him a confused look and he took bites after bites. “You know it’s very tasty” I was looking at him in disbelief, he was eating my sargi!!
“Jeonghan, she made this for me, it’s MINE” I was about to get up and snatch it from him, “Okay okay, Noor calm down.” He gave me a bite of kheer. It was tasty, ah, I miss my home where I used to make kheer for myself.
After I ate the kheer, Jeonghan took out the paratha and panner ki sabji, he gave the plate to me after serving. “Awww, hardworking Jeonghan, why aren’t you sleeping and sitting here for me?” I looked at him, he looked at me, and I could see the love his eyes held for me. “Because I don’t want my dear wife to feel lonely while eating her sargi alone” I smiled at him. “But you came home late, and you should get some rest.”
“You’re more important for me Noor” and he pinched my cheeks, I looked at him, almost flustered because what he did. “Jeong-Jeonghan stop” I tried looking away but he was just infront of me.
I started eating the paratha, “Let me taste this as well”
“You ate my kheer already and I had two to three bites hardly, and now you want to eat my paratha as well” I pouted, and I saw him eating it. “You’re insane”
“How can you say that to your husband Noor” and before I could say anything, he kissed me. I was taken aback.
Everything I ate, Jeonghan wanted to taste and we ended up eating half- half of everything. He claimed he wanted to taste everything. I wonder why would this guy even wake up.
Sometimes I wonder, what did I deserve to get him, he always tells me how much he loves me and gives me everything I need, the warmth, the comfort, he understands me and respects me and my decisions; he never questioned me in anything and always supported me in everything.
How everything slowly fit together, when we fell in love, I never thought I would end up with him the way I wanted, it’s not even a year since we get married but each day, he fills my life with more and more happiness as if last seven years were not enough for him to keep me happy.
I couldn’t believe he actually came to talk to my parents to talk about our married with his parents, the fact his parents always knew and supported him. And knowing me, I still had a hard time to accept that I was with him infront of my parents in the end, I decided to tell them before I actually got married and left my home.
I couldn’t thank god any more or less for giving me Jeonghan, as mine.
I had the last bite of apple and heard Jeonghan say, “look, it’s sunrise” I smiled at him.
“Good morning Jeonghan”
“Good morning wifey” and he kissed my forehead.
“I should go get ready and have breakfast” he gave me a teasing smile. I just shook my head, this guy is so annoying at times yet I love him so much. “Yes, go have breakfast. Eat whatever you want.”
“aur tum fast rakhogi aaj meri jaan” (and you will be keeping the fast my love) he and his teasing, I am so done.
“You don’t have work today right?” I shook my head, “No, I took a leave”
“Sadly, your husband couldn’t take a leave and have to go for work today.”
“Of course, you should go and work, and you ate my half sargi. NO WAIT you almost had full of my sargi” I gave him a side look, “You look so adorable” he pinched my nose lightly and I looked at him in disbelief. He got up from the sofa and left.
I looked at the time, it was 5:26 am. I went down to keep the plate and everything. It was almost time for breakfast. I went down and saw mom already in kitchen.
“Noor” she called my name as soon as I stepped inside the kitchen, “what are you doing here?”
“Help you in breakfast like the way I do” she turned to look at me and stopped me from helping her, “No need, you should rest today.” she paused for a second and spoke “it’s sunrise already and you’re fasting. You would be on rest today and since you aren’t going for work today so just rest.”
“But-”
“No, but Noor, go back to your room and leave this here” she told me in the softest way possible.
I kept the plates and went back to my room. I saw Jeonghan sitting on his bed, I walked towards him and sat on bed. “Did mom kick you out from the kitchen?” and he started laughing. I just looked at him, and then nodded and the moment he stopped laughing he said “My dear workaholic wife, it’s fine to take a day off at times. You manage work and home both and help my mom as well in her chores that’s why it’s not wrong to take a small break for a day atleast.” He held my hand.
“I wish I could postpone the meetings I have today, and spend my day with you”
“Jeonghan it’s fine” I smiled at him.
“You taking day off is not normal, and at times we don’t get enough time to spend with eachother, sometimes I feel I should quit being a ceo and you should work and earn for family”
“You’re speaking as if you’re not rich and would die if both of us stop working.” I told him teasingly.
He suddenly pulls me closer and our faces were inches apart, “You speak way too much at times, I can make you quit as well and we can go to vacation for months so, stop tempting me for doing that”
I slightly pushed him, “you are such a tease”
“but you look so pretty in this olive green kurti and patiyala”
“Jeonghan you- I am so done. Can you leave for work already? Please?”
“Really Noor, you look the prettiest in this, I personally love this set of yours”
“When are you leaving Jeonghan?” he again pinched my cheeks and then kissed me.
[1:30 pm]
“Your mehendi looks so pretty Noor” I smiled at Nishi, “All thanks to you” I smiled at her. I might start loving Jeonghan’s sister more than Jeonghan loves her. He always loved her so much and now I see why he loves and adores her so much. She’s lovely. “You can ask bhaiya to search for something here” “Huh?” I asked her and she just smiled.
“And you’re done Noor” she fixed my dupatta. “Finally, I’m done, I want to go and sit on balcony” she nodded and I got up.
“Noor” I stopped my feet, when I heard maa’s voice, “yes?”
“You’re done?” I nodded, “Jeonghan is also back early today” I smiled hearing his name, well, I did miss him. When do I not miss him, it’s normal for me to miss him like this. “Are you going back your room?” I shook my head, “I wanted to go to balcony and wait for the mehendi to dry up”
“Okay, he was searching for you” I looked puzzled and then looked at the time, “It’s lunch time, he came to have lunch at home?”
“He said he already ate, and came home after that” I nodded, he said he had important meetings, maybe he was done. I walked towards my room and spotted Jeonghan coming out of our room. “so, here you are” I was walking carefully because of my mehendi, I don’t want this to mess up.
He came closer to me, “looks like you’re finally done” I nodded and smiled at him
“You’re back early” he stepped closer to me, I took a step back. He was looking at my hands, and yes I was suspecting him into pulling something right now, you can never trust him with his pranks and I could see him planning something.
“Jeonghan” I called his name
“I am wondering about your mehendi” this husband of mine.
“Jeonghan, no. you ain’t touching this mehendi”
“I wanna mess this up so bad”
“Jeonghan-” he was stepping closer, I need to run away or this devil guy will annoy me again, I quickly turned back and started running, I wanted to go back to balcony and sit there peacefully but Jeonghan.
“Noor, stop, don’t run” did I look like a fool that I would stop because he wants me and my mehendi is not even dried up, it’s fresh. It takes minimum three to four hours to dry up, and he wanted to mess up with me; I ain’t letting him do that.
Back when we were campus couple, he wasn’t pulling out pranks and he wouldn’t even tease like he does now, in his defence he said since I am with him and officially his wife he can tease me all he wants.
My mind was still, how he looked so beautiful maroon sherwani during our wedding, that smile when my hand was given to him, he looked so precious, I just wanted to protect his smile always and wanted to continue being the reason of his smile.
That one smile changed everything, and now here we are, husband and wife.
I was suddenly pulled by my arm and I was in his embrace in another second. My hands were safe, nothing happened to my dear mehendi and here he was holding me in his embrace tightly, his hands were holding me securely. “I wouldn’t dare to mess up with your mehendi noor, how could I do that”
I lifted my face too see him, “Jeonghan…”
“Meri jaan, I was just teasing you because I love teasing you, but I wouldn’t dare to do this. You look so cute when you runaway from me.”
“Jeonghan… we are not in our room” I was hesitating because what if someone saw us, “and we are married, I can do anything I want and this is my house” this guy, he is impossible.
“I don’t want to let you go when you are finally in my embrace.” His hand was on my head, and my head was pressed on his chest, I could hear his heartbeat, it was just like me.
After few seconds, he let go of me carefully. “Where were you heading to?” “Balcony, I wanted to sit there, because I had nothing to do and since I am getting a bit sleepy, I rather go sit there and read something.” he fixed my dupatta and held my shoulder. “let’s go” I looked at him and he was careful with my mehendi, he is such a tease and I love this tease so much.
We got into our bedroom and he closed the door, I was standing behind him, without taking any more step. He turned to look at me, “You should know whenever you wear this type of kurti and patiyala and a dupatta with it, you look like you came down from heaven, look at yourself now.” He took me towards the mirror and he was standing beside me, “you look the best in green, no matter how many times I tell you, nothing changes the fact.” I looked at us, he was holding my shoulder delicately, he was in casuals now, grey sweatshirt and sweatpants. He was looking at me, I could see it through the mirror.
I turned to look at him, “Jeonghan” his hands were on my shoulders, “Yes?”
“I love you” he looked surprised, well it’s not me who always tells him how much I love him or adore him, it’s always him. I can’t say it on his face, it takes time for me to say. He quickly kissed me on my lips, I was still looking at him, “stop being so adorable or else your mehendi would be ruined because I am holding back my urge to kiss you and pull you in my arms right now.” I laughed at him and laughed as well. The sound of his laugh is the most comforting one.
He took me to the bed, “you can get some sleep, I will stay here and take care of your mehendi.” I looked at him with a confused face, how did he even know that I am getting sleepy, “it’s okay, Hannie”
“You must be sleepy because of fasting and I bet you were the one who did everyone’s mehendi first and then yours was done in the end.”
How did he know?
“I just know you Noor, I know you.” she smiled at me. Since I couldn’t use my hands, he took my dupatta and kept it on the bed, and helped me to adjust. Since I was still in sitting position, he pulled the comforter to cover half of me.
How can he be such a loving husband, when I started dating him, I never thought I would get such an loving husband and will discover this side of him as well, because back then he was just full of fun and brainy guy, I never saw this coming.
“You can get a nap, Noor. It’s fine trust me.” he got up from the bed and gave me a forehead kiss.
[5:10 pm]
“Noor, noor. Wake up”
“Noor”
I slowly opened my eyes, I saw the lights on and Jeonghan’s face inches apart while he was holding my face softly. Did I really fall asleep? “What’s the time Jeonghan?”
“It’s 5:10 pm already, you need to take this off as well, right?” his another hand was holding mine.
“OH MY GOD YES” I was about to get up in a hurry but he held my hand, “slow down Noor, it’s fine. There’s no hurry and mom didn’t come yet. You’ve time to get ready and I think you already have everything you need today.” I nodded, remembering mom came few days ago and gave me the lehenga and saree, she told me to wear whatever I feel like. That saree was pretty one though, wearing a lehenga, umm.
I slowly got up and went to get over with my mehendi, because it’s fully dried up. After I came back to my room, I saw Jeonghan taking out my saree and jewellery. “Jeonghan” I saw him standing infront of our closet.
I walked towards him, and hugged him from back. “Noor” and he turned to look back at me, his loving eyes were the first thing I ever fell for. He removed the strands of my hair and tugged them behind my ears which were covering my face. “Are you feeling, okay?” I nodded, “Are you sure?” I nodded again, “meri jaan” and kissed my forehead.
He should know that I can never get used to these two words whenever he calls me ‘meri jaan’ I feel like I melt then and there, the way he calls me ‘meri jaan’ it feels like he makes me melt with his voice.
“You should get ready because I will get ready as well, and I took out the saree maa gave to you, because I felt like maybe you want to wear saree tonight.”
“How do you know everything I want to do Hannie~”
“Okay, now go get ready and I will check what will I wear.” I nodded and let go of his waist. I turned around and was about to go towards the bed because he kept my everything there, but he suddenly pulled me by my arm. I collided with his chest lightly, he held both my hands, “your mehendi looks so pretty and the colour looks so beautiful” he was tracing the mehendi design, “Jeonghan, I need to get ready” I slightly pushed him and left him there. I heard his chuckle from back.
After few minutes, I was almost ready and walked back to the room, I still had to fix my saree and check the pleats if they are done or not. The moment I looked up, my eyes met with Jeonghan, he was looking so beautiful in white kurta. The colour looked so nice on him; I was in awe. It’s very rare to see Jeonghan in traditions and this happens only in occasions which is still rare for me to see him like this.
I was awestruck.
I walked towards him slowly. he was wearing white kurta and it was looking beautiful because of the embroidery on the collar. I almost couldn’t take my eyes off him. “Noor” he called me name and I walked closer to him.
“Yes?” he suddenly knelt down and patted his thighs, I was confused for a second then I saw him holding my payal, “tumhari payal meri jaan” I was so flustered, oh god, this man, yes my husband is making me go insane.
I gently gave my leg and he put the payal around very gently. Once he was done, he stood up “and it’s done” he smiled at me. I got ready, I wore my kajal and eyeliner, and applied lipstick. Once I was done then I did my hair, I did half braid quickly. I looked at the mirror and saw Jeonghan smiling at me through the mirror. I picked up my earrings and wore it. I was done and suddenly Jeonghan came closer, the close proximity, his breaths were hitting my bare neck, more over because I was wearing a blouse today rather than the kurti I wear usually. He leaned towards the dressing table and picked up a chain, I was about to turn to look at him but then he held my shoulders and stopped me from moving. “Don’t move”
He put the chain on my neck very carefully, then gave a quick peck on my neck. I was taken aback because of this sudden act, “this is for you. I wanted to give this to you today” I turned to look back at him and hugged him tight. I would literally tear up because of the love and affections he gives me.
We heard a knock on my door and I went to open the door, “maa”
“you look so pretty and Jeonghan you’re ready as well” she smiled at us, she held my cheeks and gave me a kiss on my cheeks. I smiled at her, “now let’s go down and let’s do the remaining rituals” I nodded and we went downstairs.
I saw everyone sitting there, I walked carefully along with Jeonghan. After going down I saw, the way everything was kept and decorated, we had to decorate the kalash and other things. Once everything was done, and kept in the thali (a big plate), we had to go the terrace, because we would see the moon there.
After few minutes, the moon came out. I heard maa “the moon is here” then I went to pick up my thali which was on the table and had my head covered with pallu. Then I had to lit up the diya, then kept the diya on the Chhanni then while looking at the moon through the chhannie I had to pour the water from the kalash. Then after keeping the empty kalash on the other side, then I turn to look at Jeonghan and the moment I looked at him, I saw him holding a chhanni and looking at me. I was surprised to see him holding a chhanni and looking at me, “Jeonghan yeh kya kar rahe ho?” (Jeonghan what are you doing?)
“Wahi jo tumhne aaj mere liye kiya hai”
I was still confused, what was he trying to say, “meri jaan” and once again he goes with ‘meri jaan’ “fast rakha hai tumhare liye meri jaan” (I kept the fast for you my love)
I was taken aback, he kept fast for me and I didn’t know.
“this is the first time Jeonghan ever kept fast for anyone, and you’re the one for whom he kept the fast, this shows how much he loves you” I heard maa say this while completing and almost breaking her fast, she was almost done.
“Ab mujhe yeh chaand ko dekhne ki zaroorat nehi kyunki mujhe apni chaand mil gai hai”
“Jeonghan…” how could he just say these words so casually, I was tearing up slowly.
“Ho gaya? Kyunki mujhe abhi bhook bhi lagi hai” I nodded trying not to tear up.
I had to take out the diya from the chhanni and keep it on the thali and chhanni on the table. After that I had to do the arti, once done I smiled at him and he smiled at me. he take the kalash from the thali and helps me drink the water and I do the same. And now I had to hold the thali and bow down, but before I could bow down after fixing my pallu, Jeonghan was quick to touch my feet and I was in disbelief. How could he do, and he didn’t let me touch his feet. He took the kaju katli, from the thali and gives me a bite, I saw him checking out our sides and suddenly he comes closer and takes a bit of the kaju katli as well, our lips touch and he pressed his lips more.
I was too flustered to even react, once he takes a step back, he could see how flustered I was. What if maa saw us, what if- I turn to look at my sides, and no one was here, not maa, papa aur Nishi. They all left and it was just us. I let out a small relief sigh, Jeonghan is insane.
“you’re insane, tum kuch bhi karte ho kahin pe bhi” I looked at him,
“Haan, I’m insane because of you” he took a pause before speaking, “pata nehi hai tumko?” and then he kissed my forehead, and says, “lambi umar k liye sirf tum hi kyun dua maango chaand se, maine bhi maang li aaj chaand se tumhare liye lambi umar meri jaan” he took another pause, “jisse ki hamari dono ki lambi umar ho aur mai tumhe issi tarah pyaaar kar sakun hamesha hamesha k liye” I was feeling overwhelmed and couldn’t resist anymore, why was he like this. I quickly gave him a peck. I wanted to love him more than he loves me
He smiled at me and says “Let’s go down now, I’m hungry” we were about to leave and maa comes and says “tumdono ka romance khatam ho gaya ho toh khane chalen?” and all of us burst out laughing and I got so shy.
Jeonghan held my shoulders and we went down, before going down he says, “tujhme raab dikhta hai yaara mai kya karu”
“I love you so much Noor” and kissed my cheeks.

LAILA MAIN LAILA AISI HOON LAILA HAR KOI CHAHE MUHJSE MILNA AKELA
☾♔; March 17, 2024 ☾♔; 4:56pm ☾♔; sotd: What Jhumka? (from Rocky aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani) ☾♔; cotd: Rani Chatterjee ☾♔; Thistle Grove Academy ☾♔; Storyboard/Important Connections
𝐓𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞: lyrics from "Laila Main Laila"
I've always sucked at making storyboard type sets, but YIKES. lol, whatever.
【 𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐈𝐄𝐖 】
Laila is an heiress of 𝓡𝓪𝓲𝓬𝓱𝓪𝓷𝓭 Industries, an Indian multinational conglomerate founded by Laila's great-grandfather, Thakur Raj Raichand, in the early 1950's after Partition. While the company has long since gone public, it is still majority owned by the Raichand Family, and they run every aspect of it. Now Mumbai (Bombay) based, the Raichand's originate from the state of Rajasthan where the family once owned a fairly large piece of land that was sold off when Laila's grandfather was young. After succeeding in Bombay, the land was repurchased, as well as much of the surrounding area and a large palace named Chandshah Haveli was constructed in the Indo-Saracenic architecture style.
Karshvar is the seven-story Raichand estate in Mumbai, located on Altamount Road (also known as Billionaires’ Row), the name of the estate comes from Zoroastrian mythology. The Avesta, the primary collection of religious texts in Zoroastrianism, describes seven Karshwar, climbs or zones, that organize the world into seven circles superimposed on top of one another, separated by waters, mountains, and forests. Until the completion of the Ambani’s Antilia, Karshvar was the most expensive private residence in the country, possibly the entire region, and yes, it is more expensive than their literal palace in Rajasthan (as an FYI, Antilia is the most expensive private residence in the world, as of 2014, might’ve been surpassed by now). However, Karshvar still claims the most ground floor square footage of the road.
The Raichand's are a relatively traditional family, certainly in western standards, though they are considered very progressive amongst other Desi's, having a very religiously mixed and accepting family, and very matriarchal family. Women have long held authoritative power over the family, though that has passed matrimonially, with the wife of each successive head of the family gaining that authority. Overall the Raichands are a Hindu family, however, their spouses have come from all over India and beyond, of varied faiths and sects, due to this, the Raichand’s also have large celebrations for holidays of multiple religions, obviously Hinduism, as well as Sikhism, Jainism, and Islam. Their biggest events are Diwali, Durga Puja, Vaisakhi, Navratri, Karva Chauth, Eid, the First and Last Iftars of Ramadan, and Holi. They also have a fairly large, but private, family only event for Raksha Bandhan.
Laila is not close to her maternal family at all, neither is her mother. She's asked about them a couple times before, but her mother doesn't have the best expression when talking about her family, so Laila stopped asking. If they want to know them, they can find them, it's not Laila's problem. She’s not even completely sure if her mom’s original last name is even Burakgazi, her parents have changed the story a few times, but have more or less stayed consistent that they met while her father was working. At one point the story was almost identical to the plot of the film Bang Bang!, wherein a RAW agent supposedly stole the Koor-i-noor diamond back from the British, something involving multi-national terrorists, and her mom being a bank teller caught in the middle after her dad hijacked her blind date, none of which made any sense, but it was a fun story.

Zaara is publicly referred to as “Zaara Bhabhi”, by netizens, Raichand Industries employees, and other industrialists, all of whom regard her as the true head of Raichand Industries, as even though she does not work in the company, Veer’s love for her and deference to her is well-known, and she has the last word on everything. Because of this she is often the target for schmoozing campaigns (though it doesn’t necessarily work, a lot of Laila’s judgey and stubborn personality comes from her).

Rashmi eventually married Kat’s paternal grandfather, and the couple moved to London for his work. A couple years younger than the Emirati trio, Kat lived most of her life in the UK, until her parents company moved them to their Dubai offices, and she built a closer relationship with Kiran and joined her friend group. Having grown up abroad, Kat’s Hindi isn’t great, though she can understand the gist of what is being said, her Arabic is far more fluent.

I keep expanding my family tree, and forgetting things I don’t put in the bio sections. Laila took keeping things in the family too literally, by her I mean me, but literally everyone mentioned up there is bound in her family tree through one method or another, even got Is in there cause I decided that her half-brother is Laila’s eventual endgame. Far in the future, cause he a lot older (like red flag), so he doesn’t show up now, it’ll be creepy if he does.
Desai’s, friendship dates back to before even Yogesh, the Desai’s were heavily involved in establishing Raichand Industries, and outside of the Raichand family, own the most shares of RaiI, in the current generation, Vijay (grandson of Yogesh) and Payal (granddaughter of Dushant) are engaged. Yogesh once dated Dushant’s sister with semi-serious marriage talks, but forgot all of that after meeting Mohini, so that was awkward and dramatic. Lol Dadaji is a slut.
Khan & Kapoor filmi fam’s, friendship from the Veer/Vikrant/Riya generation, very thinly veiled references to bollywood things for my enjoyment. This Khan and Kapoor branch are also connected to each other, I think they are cousins by descent, while the Raichand connection is through a marriage, oh wait, the Raichand connection is even further away, cause it’s through the Dhanraj’s marriage! So at most, Vijay’s something, something cousins, but not Laila, Zoya, or Yash’s.
Singhania, frienship from Veer/Vikrant/Riya generation, but working relationship from Yogesh’s era

Temporary tattoo designs in India
India, a land steeped in rich cultural heritage and artistry, has seen a burgeoning trend in the art of tattooing. While permanent tattoos have always been a part of various tribal and regional traditions, Temporary tattoo designs in India have gained immense popularity in recent years. The concept of temporary tattoos is not new in India; in fact, henna (mehndi) has long been used to adorn the skin with intricate patterns for weddings, festivals, and other ceremonies. However, modern temporary tattoos, which offer the beauty of body art without the lifelong commitment, are now becoming a fashion statement for individuals of all ages.
The Rise of Temporary Tattoo Designs in India
The concept of temporary tattoo designs in India appeals to a wide audience for several reasons. First, not everyone is ready to commit to a permanent tattoo, which is often associated with pain, permanence, and sometimes, regret. Temporary tattoos offer the perfect solution for those who want to experiment with body art without the long-term consequences.
Temporary tattoo designs in India have evolved to cater to a diverse population. From young adults who want to express their personality through trendy designs, to children and families looking for fun and safe options, the demand for temporary tattoos is skyrocketing. These designs are not only easy to apply but also easy to remove, making them perfect for people who like to change their look frequently.
Moreover, with India's growing influence in global fashion and culture, temporary tattoo designs have started incorporating traditional Indian motifs alongside modern styles. The fusion of heritage and contemporary aesthetics is one of the main reasons why temporary tattoo designs in India are becoming so popular.
Types of Temporary Tattoos Available in India
Henna Tattoos (Mehndi)
Henna has been used in India for centuries, especially during weddings and festivals like Karva Chauth, Diwali, and Eid. Mehndi is applied in intricate patterns, usually on the hands and feet, and is often symbolic of love and good fortune. While traditionally associated with bridal designs, modern temporary tattoo designs in India have extended the use of henna for more casual purposes.
Sticker Tattoos
Sticker tattoos are one of the most popular forms of temporary tattoos. These are easy to apply, water-resistant, and can last for several days. Sticker temporary tattoo designs in India range from simple geometric shapes to detailed and colorful images, appealing to both kids and adults. The variety of designs ensures that there is something for everyone.
Airbrush Tattoos
Airbrush tattoos are another innovative form of temporary tattoo gaining traction in India. Using an airbrush machine, the tattoo is sprayed onto the skin, creating a smooth, realistic finish. Airbrush temporary tattoo designs in India are highly customizable, allowing people to choose their preferred design and colors. They are often used for events, parties, and festivals.
Jagua Tattoos
Jagua tattoos are relatively new to the Indian market but are growing in popularity. Derived from the juice of the jagua fruit, this type of temporary tattoo creates a dark blue or black design, similar to henna but with a different color finish. Jagua tattoos are a great option for those looking for a more permanent-looking temporary tattoo design that lasts longer than traditional henna.
Body Paint and Glitter Tattoos
For those who want to add a touch of glam to their look, glitter tattoos and body paint are a fun alternative. These temporary tattoo designs in India are often used at festivals, concerts, and themed parties. While they don’t last as long as other types of temporary tattoos, their vibrant and shiny appearance makes them a favorite among children and young adults.
Popular Themes in Temporary Tattoo Designs in India
The designs for temporary tattoos in India have become more diverse, reflecting both global trends and local influences. Some of the most popular themes include:
Traditional Indian Motifs
Inspired by the intricate patterns of henna, traditional temporary tattoo designs in India often incorporate paisleys, mandalas, lotus flowers, and peacock feathers. These designs are deeply rooted in Indian culture and are popular for festivals, weddings, and other ceremonial occasions.
Spiritual and Religious Symbols
Symbols like Om, the Trishul, and the lotus are frequently seen in temporary tattoo designs in India. Many people choose these designs to express their spirituality or connection to Indian religions like Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism.
Minimalist and Geometric Tattoos
Minimalist designs are becoming increasingly popular, especially among the younger generation. Geometric shapes, delicate line work, and small, simple symbols are some of the most sought-after temporary tattoo designs in India. These tattoos are understated yet stylish, making them suitable for both casual and formal occasions.
Floral Designs
Floral tattoos have universal appeal and are among the most common temporary tattoo designs. From roses and lilies to jasmine and lotus flowers, these designs are versatile and can be personalized to suit individual preferences. Floral patterns are often chosen for their beauty and symbolism, representing growth, beauty, and femininity.
Tribal and Ethnic Tattoos
India has a rich tradition of tribal tattooing, especially in states like Odisha, Nagaland, and Arunachal Pradesh. Modern temporary tattoo designs in India often draw inspiration from these ancient tribal patterns, creating a blend of modern and ethnic artistry. Tribal tattoos are usually bold and intricate, making a strong visual statement.
Pop Culture and Western Influences
With the rise of global media and social platforms, temporary tattoo designs in India have also been influenced by Western pop culture. Designs featuring popular characters, symbols from movies, and even sports icons are quite popular among the youth. Western tattoo trends, such as dreamcatchers, infinity signs, and anchors, have also made their way into Indian temporary tattoo collections.
Why Choose Temporary Tattoos Over Permanent Tattoos?
There are several reasons why people prefer temporary tattoo designs in India over permanent tattoos:
No Long-Term Commitment
Unlike permanent tattoos, temporary tattoos allow individuals to experiment with different designs, styles, and placements without the fear of making a lifelong decision. This flexibility is particularly appealing to young adults who are still exploring their identities.
Pain-Free Application
Permanent tattoos can be painful and require a skilled artist to ensure precision. In contrast, temporary tattoos are painless, easy to apply, and can be done in the comfort of one’s home.
Safe for All Ages
Temporary tattoo designs in India are safe for all age groups, making them ideal for children and teenagers who want to try out body art. Parents can feel reassured knowing that these tattoos are non-toxic and do not cause any harm to the skin.
Perfect for Special Occasions
Temporary tattoos are an excellent choice for weddings, festivals, and parties. Whether you’re a bride who wants an intricate henna design or a partygoer looking for a fun, edgy design, temporary tattoo designs in India offer limitless possibilities.
Affordability
Temporary tattoos are far more affordable than permanent tattoos. You can switch between different designs and styles without breaking the bank. This affordability makes them a great option for those who like to change their look frequently.
Quick and Easy Removal
One of the biggest advantages of temporary tattoos is that they can be easily removed. A little soap, water, or rubbing alcohol can erase the design, allowing you to change your look as often as you like.
Where to Find Temporary Tattoo Designs in India
With the rise in demand, temporary tattoo designs in India are now widely available. They can be found at:
Local Tattoo Parlors
Many tattoo parlors in cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, and Kolkata now offer temporary tattoo services. They cater to customers who want to experiment with different designs before committing to a permanent tattoo.
Online Marketplaces
E-commerce platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, and Myntra offer a vast selection of temporary tattoo designs in India. You can browse through thousands of designs, ranging from traditional henna to modern sticker tattoos, and have them delivered to your doorstep.
Festivals and Events
Temporary tattoos are often available at local fairs, festivals, and events. From street vendors to professional tattoo artists, you can find a variety of temporary tattoo designs to choose from.
Conclusion
The popularity of temporary tattoo designs in India continues to grow as more people discover the joys of expressing themselves through body art without the permanence of ink. Whether you're looking for traditional motifs, modern designs, or fun and quirky symbols, temporary tattoos offer endless possibilities for self-expression. Their flexibility, affordability, and pain-free application make them an ideal choice for people of all ages and backgrounds. Whether it’s for a special occasion or just for fun, temporary tattoo designs in India are a trend that’s here to stay.

Women observe Karwa Chauth fast every year for the long life of their husband. The fast of Karwa Chauth starts with sunrise and continues till moonrise. Sargi also has special significance in Karwa Chauth. It is eaten before sunrise. Sargi is made by the mother-in-law for her daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law starts the fast by eating it. This year this festival of Karwa Chauth will be celebrated on 24 October i.e. Sunday.
What is Sargi?
Sargi is the food that the mother-in-law gives to her daughter-in-law on the day of Karwa Chauth. Along with this, she also gives some items to her daughter-in-law. Sargi is taken in the morning before sunrise. After this the fast is considered to have started. Actually, Sargi is a gift from the mother-in-law to the daughter-in-law. The benefit of eating Sargi is that women remain full of energy throughout the day. If someone does not have a mother-in-law, then an elder woman of the house makes and gives Sargi.
What is Bayna?
Whereas the mother-in-law gives Sargi to her daughter-in-law. At the same time, the daughter-in-law gives Bayna to her mother-in-law. In which clothes, makeup items, clothes, Suhaag items, Phenia, fruits, dry fruits, coconut etc. are kept in Sargi.
Auspicious time to eat Sargi
Sargi should be consumed around 4 to 5 pm before sunrise. Moonrise will be at 7:51 pm. Chaturthi Tithi will start this year on 24 October 2021, Sunday at 3:01 am, which will last till 5:43 am the next day, 25 October. The time of moonrise on this day is 7:51 am. The auspicious time for worship will be from 06:55 pm to 08:51 pm on 24 October 2021.
Here we will tell you about some such things, which you should not eat even by mistake in Sargi.
Fried items- Fried items like samosas, pakodas, parathas etc. are very oily or ghee- They cause heaviness in the stomach and slow down the digestive system. This makes one feel tired and lethargic throughout the day. Also, eating such heavy food early in the morning can also spoil digestion.
1. Spicy food- Eating too much spicy food can cause heartburn and acidity in the stomach. This makes it difficult to keep fast.
2. Processed food- Processed food contains high amounts of salt, sugar and preservatives. These are harmful to the body and can cause weight gain.
4. Caffeinated drinks- Tea, coffee and cold drinks contain caffeine, which can cause water deficiency in the body. This can cause dehydration and headache.
5. Too much sweet- Eating too much sweet can increase blood sugar level and make you feel tired. Also, you feel more thirsty after eating sweets.
6. Apple on an empty stomach- Eating apple on an empty stomach can cause acidity. So eat something else in Sargi before eating apple.
7. Spicy food- Eating too much spicy food can cause stomach irritation and acidity. This makes it difficult to keep fast.
Karwa Chauth 2023: Eat these things in Karwa Chauth's Sargi, you will be full of energy during the fast
What should be eaten in Sargi?
1. Fruits- Be sure to eat seasonal fruits like banana, papaya, pomegranate, berries or apple in Sargi. First of all, they are easily digestible and on top of that, the fiber and vitamins present in them keep us fresh throughout the day during the fast. It also makes the stomach feel full, but keep in mind that eating fruits without eating anything can cause acidity, so eat fruits only after eating something light. Fruits are rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber. They give energy to the body and help in digestion. You can eat apples, bananas, grapes, oranges etc.
2. Milk and milk products- If you want to not feel hungry or thirsty and weak during Karva Chauth fast, then eat milk products, if possible you can eat rasgulla, rasmalai or vermicelli. These are also easily digestible and will make you feel energetic throughout the day. If you do not feel like eating these, then you can also drink a glass of hot milk with a handful of dry fruits, which will give you energy. Milk contains calcium and protein which strengthens the bones and gives energy to the body. You can eat milk, curd, cheese etc. Keep in mind not to eat milk and curd together.
3. Dry fruits- Almonds, cashews, raisins etc. contain protein and healthy fats. They provide energy to the body for a long time. However, eat them in limited quantities.
4. Vegetables- Vegetables are rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber. You can eat carrots, cucumbers etc.
5. Fresh juice or coconut water- You can also drink fresh fruit juice in Sargi. These are easy to digest and also help you feel fresh. Also, due to electrolytes and water, there is no dehydration in the body.
6. Dahi shakkar
Dahi shakkar is considered auspicious in every work in our country. If you are healthy, then you can eat a bowl of fresh curd.
7. Coconut water
Drinking coconut water in Sargi is very energetic. It cools your stomach, as well as the minerals present in it keep you hydrated.

Care Tips for Your Designer Salwar Suits
Want those exquisite designer Karwa Chauth suits to look as fresh as the first day one got them? Well, it is all about using the right care. First of all, always opt for dry cleaning. Silk and embroidered fabrics are quite sensitive, and regular washing may dim their sheen. Whenever it comes to storage, avoid hanging them, especially with heavy embroidery. Instead, fold your suit nicely and wrap it in a muslin cloth to save it from dust and moisture. But do not forget to store them in a cool and dry place away from direct sunlight, a breeding ground for faded colors. You may also place silica gel packets or sachets with no fragrances; this would keep moisture at bay. For dupattas, gentle steam will remove the wrinkles without harming the fabric. With a little care, your suits are spotless, ready to impress every festive season that comes after that!

mehndi design
Mehndi, also known as henna, holds a cherished place in various cultures, celebrated not only for its aesthetic beauty but also for its cultural significance. Originating from ancient India, Egypt, and the Middle East, mehndi is applied to the skin in intricate designs, typically during weddings, festivals, and other significant ceremonies.
The art of mehndi design involves intricate patterns drawn with henna paste, which leaves a temporary stain on the skin. This natural dye comes from the leaves of the henna plant, Lawsonia inermis, and has been used for centuries for its cooling properties in addition to its decorative value.
Mehndi designs vary widely across different regions and cultures. In Indian weddings, brides often have elaborate patterns covering their hands and feet, symbolizing joy, beauty, spiritual awakening, and offering protection against evil. These designs can include motifs like paisleys, floral patterns, peacocks, and intricate geometric shapes, each carrying its own symbolism and cultural significance.
The process of applying mehndi involves skill and creativity. Artists use cones or syringes filled with henna paste to create delicate lines and designs. After application, the paste is left to dry for several hours, allowing the dye to penetrate the top layers of the skin. Once dry, the paste is gently scraped off, revealing an orange stain which darkens to a rich reddish-brown over the next 24–48 hours. This stain can last up to two weeks, depending on factors such as skin type and care.
Beyond weddings, mehndi is also popular during festivals like Eid in the Muslim world and Karva Chauth in North India, where women adorn their hands with intricate designs as part of cultural rituals and celebrations. In recent years, mehndi has gained popularity worldwide, with artists experimenting with fusion styles blending traditional patterns with modern influences.
The appeal of mehndi design lies not only in its visual allure but also in its cultural heritage and symbolism. It serves as a form of self-expression, celebration, and connection to tradition. Whether it’s a bride’s hands adorned with intricate bridal mehndi or a young girl’s first experience with henna at a festival, the art of mehndi continues to weave its magic across generations, embodying beauty, tradition, and the spirit of celebration.

Easy To Style Outfit Ideas For Authentic Indian Karwa Chauth Look
Karva Chauth celebrations have existed since time immemorial. Though Bollywood movies have glamorized the entire ritual, this occasion has a deeper significance.
In Mahabharata, Draupadi was urged by Lord Krishna to follow Karva Chauth fast for Arjun’s protection at the battle. To upkeep the safety of their husbands, married women follow a no food, no water fast till the moon shines out. Post that, they deliver the first sip of the sacred water to the moon followed by other rituals. It is believed that couples who commit to this receive the asked blessings.
If you celebrate Karva Chauth, here are some outfit inspos by Vishnu for you to worry less and savor the day more!
1. Mustard Ajrakh Print Maxi Anarkali
