And watch the pictures.As time passed Tapan fell in love with Najma..One day they were sitting in the Taj garden,then Tapan said to Najma,"I've fallen in love with you."
"Me too__Najma spoken after hearing Tapan.
"I want to make you my life partner."
"I would like to be your wife."
"But Najma our religion is different.Will your mother be ready for our marriage,"Tapan expressed doubt after knowing Nana's heart.
"My mother is a woman of open minded and thoughts.She does not believe in caste,religion,,high and low.I think she should not mind our marriage."
Najma's mother Jarina was a teacher.at school. She was a open minded lady..She did not imposed any kind of restrictions on her daughter. gave her all kind of freedom.She fulfilled her every wish..She had no objection to friendship with Tapan.So Najma thought that her mother wouldn't be against her marriage to Tapan.
But Najma's thinking turned out to be wrong.Jarina was a progressive woman with open thoughts.She was in favour of woman's freedom..She was in favour of giving equal rights to women as men has.
But her daughter wants to marry a Hindu man,She got upset after hearing this.On the matter if daughters marriage.She remembered religion.,caste and everything..She spoke after listening to het daughters,"Is there a famaine for muslims boys,so you want to marry a Hindu boy?"
"Marriage is not between Hindu and Muslim.Two religions are not married.Marriage is a matter between a man and a woman..A man and A woman are married."
"Men are in all religions.Muslim religion also have men..Then why from a Hindu man?"
"The woman should marry the man whom she loves.I love Tapan."
Najma tried her best to convince her mother.But in vain,She did not listen.She spoke to her daughter in clear words,"I will not do your nikah to a Hindu boy."
"Mom if this is your stubbornness,then listen to my decision too,"Listening to her mother words,she also said in anger,"I will marry only Tapan or else I will remain a vurgin for whole life"Najma had told Tapan about her mother's decision..Tapan said after hearing Najma,"What now?"
After listening to Tapan, said Najma,"Mother love me a lot..I will convince her ,But it will take time."
"What are you thinking~"Najma brought a tray of tea.SeeingTapan immersed in thought she said.
Tapan said while returning from past to present,"Those old memories"
"Have tea"
Tapan said to Najma while drinking tea,"where is your mother?"
"It's been ten years since she died".
Tapan regretted hearing the news of Najmas mother"
After some time Najma asked him,"Where are you now?"
"I went to Mauritius thirty years ago.Still I am there."
"Don't you want to come here."
"No"Tapan said while drinking tea,"Even if I want to come here.People of there will not let me come.They like and love me a lot."
Najma and Tapan were talking about what happened to them in last thirty years.They were telling each other.Tapan suddenly asked her,""You got married?"
Wedding,"after listening to Tapan Najma said,"Means nikaah,"
"Najma tried hard to convince her mother,But Jarina was not ready to marry her daughter to Tapan.
Tapan got a job as soon as collage was completed..He got a Hindi teacher job in Maritaus..He went to Najma.
