In In Delhi,
In Dhillon house.
Karan is sitting on a couch in front of his two idiot friends who were stuffing their mouths with snacks which Gurleen was giving them.
"Eat slowly, you idiots," Karan said with an annoyed look.
"You shut up. You don't know how much we missed aunty's handmade food," Parth said.
"Aunty, do we have more samosas?" Samksh asked Gurleen. She looked at him with a motherly smile and said, "Yes, should I also bring kachori?"
"There is no need to ask, mummy. Give them everything leftover from our refrigerator. They will also chew it happily," Karan said sarcastically. Samksh and Parth put their plates down and looked at him like he hurt them.
"Aunty, no need for more samosas. Seeing us eating, someone isn't able to digest it," Parth said dramatically, showing his palm to Gurleen.
"Now you're happy? We stopped eating!!" Samksh said, patting Parth's shoulder.
Karan sighed and rolled his eyes while mumbling, "Drama queens," but a smack landed on the back of his head. He groaned.
"What, maa??"
"Don't say anything to them. They are my sons. Let them eat, their mother is cooking for them," Gurleen said, glaring at her son. Karan again rolled his eyes.
After having heartful and stomachful snacks, both Parth and Samksh were now in Karan's room. They all were gathered to decide the place they should go on a trip.
"Where should we go?" Samksh asked.
"How about Kashmir?" Parth suggested.
"Nahh!! I don't want to get freeze again," Karan said, shaking both hands and his head in no.
"Then, Rajasthan? Something traditional?" Samksh suggested.
"No yaar, we have been there," this time Parth denied.
"Odisha?" Karan suggested, making the other boys shake their heads in no.
The boys were thinking of a place. Then Gurleen entered the room with hot chocolate. Placing the tray, she looked at the boys.
"Have you kids decided where to go?" Gurleen asked.
"No. Why don't you suggest?" Karan said.
"Um... How about in south?" Gurleen suggested after thinking. Boy's head snapped towards Gurleen.
"I am in! Once in a lifetime, I want to meet Rashmika Mandanna. Let's go to Karnataka, she lives there, it's her hometown," Parth said in excitement.
"Abee shut up yaar, I want to go somewhere near nature," Samksh said, adjusting his specs on the bridge of his nose.
"Look beta, in South there are many places which are close to nature. But you guys can visit kerela. There is a resort of my friend," Gurleen suggested. Everyone was amazed in the room by her idea.
"But my Rashmika..." Parth made a sad pout.
"It's ok baby, we'll go next time," Gurleen cheered him like he was a kid.
They all agreed and started to do more arrangements and discussion.

In the living room.
Karan went shopping to buy some necessary things for himself. At that time, the matchmaker came and now she was sitting with Gurleen, sipping tea.
"Whom did you bring now, Suman?" Gurleen asked the matchmaker crossing her hands near her chest.
Suman leaned on the table to put her cup down and then took out a picture of a girl.
"Bhabhi, look at this girl. I think you should meet her family," Suman suggested.
"Hm, she is beautiful. Where does she live?" Gurleen asked with a smile. The girl's picture caught her attention too hard. Gurleen could barely look away from her.
"She lives in Chennai, don't know the exact place. She is a great classical dancer. She doesn't want to leave her dance after marriage," Suman ranted continuously, telling Gurleen about that girl.
Gurleen decided to meet that girl's family. Suman asked for some time because she had to give Gurleen full details about that girl.

Later in the evening, when Karan came home with the things he bought for his mother and for himself for the trip, the first thing he noticed after coming inside the home was his mother's grin. Gurleen was grinning widely infront of the main door which made him flinch. He put his hand on chest and breathe deeply.
"Yahh!! mumma you scared me!" He sigh.
"Oh you came. Let's have dinner."
"Is something is wrong?" He asked carefully because his mother always drop a bomb on him.
"Nothing is wrong" She said softly but then she change her tone. "Why do you think that ??"
He shrugged his shoulder.
