The parents, after decades of longing and hoping for their son whom they sent way 18 years ago, can't believe their eyes when they suddenly see him again.

Shock, disbelief, and a mixture of overwhelming emotions flood their minds and hearts. They are filled with so many questions and feelings, not knowing if what they are seeing is real. Despite the years of separation, the love they have for their son remains, and they can't resist the urge to rush over and embrace him. Tears flow as they hold him close, relieved and overjoyed to have their son back in their lives once again.

Siddhant is hugged by his parents, his initial reaction was little or no emotion. He remain stoic and unresponsive to the embrace, perhaps even showing a bit of irritation or annoyance at the show of affection.

Despite not outwardly displaying any warmth or affection, on the inside he  is deeply touched by the gesture but struggle to express it. He felt a sense of guilt for his cold behavior, yet his exterior remains unchanged.

The parents, seeing their son's lack of response to their hug, felt a pang of sorrow and disappointment. However, they remain hopeful and understand that their love for him is unwavering.

Taking a step back, Komali seeing her son after not having seen him for 18 years, filled with a mix of emotions and thoughts. When she finally speaks, her words are a beautiful mix of heartfelt sentiments.

"My darling son," her voice trembles as she begins, "I can't believe you're here standing before me. I've waited for so long, hoping and praying to see your face again... and now here you are."

She continued with words filled with love and affection.

"All these years, I have dreamed of this moment. The thought of you has never left my mind, and I have longed to hold you in my arms again. All the memories of your childhood come rushing back to me - your first steps, your laugh, your sweet smile... I thought I might never see you again, but here you are and you're all grown up. My heart feels as if it could burst with love and happiness."

Despite the mother's heartfelt words, Siddhant remains unresponsive. He felt a twinge of guilt but is determined to keep up his cool exterior. He didn't outright deny the mother's happiness at seeing him, but he also does not return her affection.

"I'm here," he says, his tone aloof and detached, "but don't expect anything more."

The mother, growing slightly confused and a bit hurt by her son's cold response, tries to probe deeper.

"What do you mean, don't expect anything more?" she asks, a trace of pain in her voice. "I'm just happy to know you're safe and well, and I thought you'd be glad to see us after all this time."

The son, trying to keep his cold exterior, replies with a hint of arrogance.

"I am glad to be back," he says, "but don't mistake my return for a desire to be back in this town. I have bigger dreams and ambitions now, and I am here to expand my business. This place holds nothing special for me unless it helps me in achieving my goals."

The twin siblings, who are unaware that the cold-hearted man is their elder brother, were observing the conversation with a mix of curiosity and intrigue. They likely don't know why he seems cold and aloof towards their mother, but they know he is a successful businessman and an eligible bachelor.

They were quietly impressed by his success and status, but also feel a sense of mystery and curiosity about the man's true nature and the reason for his standoffish demeanor.

As the mother and son continue their conversation, the father, who has overheard bits and pieces of their exchange, decides to join in. He approaches them and places a gentle hand on his son's shoulder, his voice filled with a mix of concern and authority.

"Son, your mother and I haven't seen you in 18 years," he begins, his tone stern but not unkind. "We understand you have your own dreams and business to attend to, but don't you think it's time to show some gratitude and warmth for the love we've given you all these years?"

Their son, growing frustrated and defensive, retorts, "What love? You want me to feel grateful for the love you've shown me when I've been away for 18 years? Let's be real, you hardly showed me any love at all. You were always working and rarely had time for me. You were too engrossed in your people and family to pay attention to your own elder son. So don't expect me to feel grateful for something that I barely received."

The family, taken aback by the son's sudden arrival and his rude response, is left in shock. The father and mother exchange worried glances, hurt by the son's harsh words and distant behavior. His twin siblings are confused and concerned, not understanding why their elder brother is acting so coldly.

The atmosphere in the room is filled with tension and uncertainty, as the family struggles to make sense of the son's unexpected reappearance and his unfriendly attitude. Many questions and emotions run through their minds as they try to process this unexpected twist.

Frustrated by the tension and emotions of the discussion, Siddhant finally decides he has had enough. He interjects, saying, "I've had enough of this. I'm tired and I just came back for my personal purposes. I don't want any family drama or discussions. Let me rest."

He turns to his parents and siblings with a firm look, as if to say the conversation is over and he demands some space now.

Siddhant still distant and aloof, turns to his mother and says, "Show me my room. I want to rest."

The mother, though hurt by her son's coldness, nods and calls for a servant to show him to his room. The servant, understanding the situation, leads the son silently to his room, which is now a bit different from how he left it 18 years ago.

As the son exits the room, the mother is consumed by a wave of emotions and regret. She falls into a chair, tears streaming down her face. She feels a mix of guilt and sadness, knowing that she could have done more for her son.

The father, twins, uncle, and aunt all gather around the mother, trying to comfort her. They speak words of reassurance, trying to explain that they did what they thought was best for the son by sending him to a hostel and focusing on their work but never thought that it's reaction would turn into misery. 

Kalindi, who has been observing the scene intently, remains stoic and quiet. She watches the family trying to console the mother, but her expression reveals little of what she may be thinking or feeling about her grandson's cold behavior.

This knowledge filled her with a mix of sadness and wisdom, but she kept her thoughts to herself.

Her lack of reaction, and the knowing look in her eyes, however, hint at a depth of emotion and knowledge that she perhaps chooses to keep to herself.

Time skips....

The twins, now in their study room, were deeply engrossed in their thoughts about their newly returned brother. They couldn't help but recall the one night that they had heard their mother crying out in the night, calling out to someone as "baby." The vision of their father trying to console her came back to them vividly.

They exchange a look of realization and wonder as they silently come to the understanding of who their long-lost baby is.

Arushi though eager to talk to her brother and get to know him as she already know most things , felt anxious after the earlier event. She confided her feelings to her twin brother, expressing her fear of her brother's cold behavior and his aloof attitude.

Arush , empathetic and protective, listened to his sister and offered a reassuring smile. "Don't worry," he said, "I'll go with you. I'm sure he won't be as cold towards you as he was with our parents."

The sister nods in agreement, but a deep sadness filled her heart. "Yes," she said, "it's true that he was sent away because of us, and we never knew about it. But deep down, a part of me feels guilty. We may be his siblings, but we don't know how he truly feels. He's been away for so long, and there's no telling if he'll even want to talk to us, let alone show us warmth and affection."

Arushi believed that their elder brother was separated from their family due to her and her twin, she  assume that he will be cold and rude towards them. She felt a sense of guilt or responsibility for his absence, which  leaded her to expect a negative or distant demeanor from him. She also worried about how he will react when he finally meets her and her twin. The sister's beliefs about the reasons behind her brother's separation  affected her expectations and anxieties about their future interactions.

The sister, determined to strengthen the bond with their elder brother and prevent him from feeling guilty or left out, shared her plan with her twin. "We need to take the initiative to build a strong relationship with our brother," she said. "We may have been the reason for his separation, but we can make amends now. If we approach him with kindness, understanding, and acceptance, it might just mend the gaps and make him feel more welcome in our family."

Arush chuckled and teased his sister with humor. "You're talking about acceptance now," he said, "but didn't you see his behavior earlier? He was being a total badass."

Arushi laughed and rolled her eyes. "I know, I know," she agreed, "but people change, right? Maybe he's different now. We can't judge him based on one interaction."

As the twin siblings approached the servant, they asked for the location of their elder brother's room. The servant informed them of his room, which was located next to Rani Saheba Kalindi . The unexpected news left the siblings perplexed, as they knew that the room beside Rani Saheba belonged to Akshay, their cousin. They exchanged a confused glance, wondering why he had chosen that particular room. Nevertheless, the siblings decided to push their curiosity aside and proceeded towards his room.

Arushi was about to grab the doorknob when her twin stopped her, speaking in a serious and slightly scared tone. "What if he gets angry and throws us out?" he questioned, referring to their elder brother's muscular build. "He looks like he could toss us out without breaking a sweat."

Arushi attempting to diffuse the tension, quipped back at her twin, "You're always so brave when it comes to flirting with girls, but you get scared of your own brother? What happened to your confidence?"

Arush , responding to her banter, shot back with a smile. "Girls are nazuk kali (delicate) compared to him. He's nazuk kala (unbreakable)"

Feeling annoyed at her twin's hesitation, the sister responded with a mix of anger and determination. "Alright, I'll show you right here what nazuk kala really means if you don't come with me," she declared.

Arush caught off guard by the Arushi's sudden assertiveness, chuckled to himself thinking she was threatening him, and then jokingly chided her. "Where are your manners?" he teased. "This is no way to talk to your elder brother ( talking about himself) ."

Arushi , quick to retort, reminded her twin that she was older than him. "Which elder brother?" she quipped. "You're younger than me, so don't try to act smart."

The twin brother rolled his eyes and responded to his sister's assertion. "Oh, please," he said, feigning annoyance. "You're only two minutes older than me. It hardly counts as being the elder sibling." 

Siddhant had overheard the sound at his door and opened it to find his siblings caught in a playful bickering match. He couldn't help but find the situation amusing, a faint smile appearing on his face.

Despite the circumstances of his separation, Siddhartha never held any grudge or blame against his siblings. They were just children when the decision was made, and he knew that they had no control over it.
