I love you, she said  True Love is not transactional,  True Love is when someone chooses to wait... patientily  Anchor introduces 'Elakshi' which means the girl with the brightest eyes. After 'Noor' re-married, 'He' found peace in 'Elakshi' but couldn't give her a 'Piece' of himself that she deserves. She chooses to wait patiently while he nurses his wound, but for how long must one wait ?

PLEASE USE HEADPHONES FOR BETTER EXPERIENCE.  What do you do, when after years, you fall for someone again, What do you do when you know that you really need that someone, that she is the only one who can mend you. What do you do when you know that she won't wait forever, because you like her, but you don't love her the way you should.  Doosri Aurat revolves around that very feeling, Doosri Aurat is an apology for all those who, we really liked and wanted to be with, but could never love.  Introducing - Elakshi as the Doosri Aurat  Doosri Aurat Revolves around two amazing nazm one by the 'master ' Jaun Elia and other by a fairly new but a brilliant Pakistani shayar Wasi Shah  Mere kamre ko sajane ki tammana hain tumhe  mere kamre mein ab kitaabon ke siva kuch bhi nahi - Jaun Elia Tumhare gesuon ki chaaon mil jaaaye to sooraj se ulajhna baat hin kya hain  Utha lo apna saaya to fir meri aukaat hin kya hain. - Wasi Shah  CREDITS: NAZAM'S BY  - JAUN ELIA, WASI SHAH  INPUTS BY - SHRUTI MISHRA  WRITTEN, NARRATED AND PRODUCED BY KARAN SINGH 

PLEASE USE HEADPHONES FOR BETTER EXPERIENCE   He did go for Noor’s wedding, how could he have not? He too needed this goodbye, even if it meant to just watch from afar.  Sometimes, in the end there are no fancy words...  Sometimes, in the end there are no arguments...  Sometimes, in the end there is nothing else but just good wishes... And sometimes.. .just a simple goodbye!  The season finale draws heavily from Ahmad Salman’s nazm ‘Agar jaana hin laazim hai’ and is the perfect swan song to the love story that was Noor.  CREDITS :   NAZM BY AHMAD SALMAN FAROOQI   ADAPTED, NARRATED AND PRODUCED BY  - KARAN SINGH

PLEASE USE HEADPHONES FOR BETTER EXPERIENCE  The song that plays in the background is a beautiful example of vernacular poetry.  डेग नमभर सो दुलहा चले छथ कोना  जेन बंधन से बकरा भगे छै तेना सखी हे दूल्हा के बकरा कहलिए कोना  जेना अजकुल के छी सब बालक जेना O' why does the groom walk so fast, almost like a goat just out of captivity,  O' why do you call the groom a goat?   Because he is from Aajkul. AJKUL  -  RAM'S LINEAGE | 'AAJ' Also means Goat.  Folklore has it that this song was sung in Mithilanchal when Lord Ram went to claim Sita's hand in marriage.    Composed in Maithili dialect from the Mithlanchal region of today's Bihar, once home and the birthplace of Sita, the song speaks of a tradition from the region, where the brides family playfully teases the groom and his family in an attempt to break the ice.  This song beautifully sets the tone of the episode and is a complete contrast to the confusion and doubts and questions that are ailing Noor.  On one hand, everyone is at the door welcoming the groom and on the other Noor stands in the lobby by the window, her eyes searching for ‘Him’....

नूर  आप अच्छे इतने हैं, की ज़ालिम बहुत हैं  - FAITHLESS  Kaise Ho tum revolves around Fakir's beautiful Nazm   कुछ तो दुनिया की इनायात ने दिल तोड़ दिया और कुछ तल्ख़ी-ए-हालात ने दिल तोड़ दिया Loving is easy, forgetting so hard*. Do you really get over someone, do you really move on, or do you just pretend, pretend that everything is all right, pretend that you can fight the good fight,  pretend that you can be happy again.  *Pablo Neruda  CREDITS :  Nazm : Sudarshan Fakir  Noor Voiced By : Khushboo Negi  Boy   Voiced By : Karan Singh Music : Loebach Music  - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_B8mxVSP2is Written and Produced by : Karan singh
