TuHir FF:Never Your Wife Again! Ch-36 on pg 67Ghar Ka Diya - Page 66

I really loved thie chapter35 . I had asked for more romantic scenes between Mihir and Tulsi, and you gave them in such a beautiful and meaningful way. Thank you for making their moments feel mature, emotional, and connected to everything they have been through. The temple conversation was especially powerful. Mihir explaining why he arranged the article and the book showed how deeply he now understands Tulsi and Bandhej.

I also loved that Tulsi asked him to let go of his guilt. It felt like an important step in their healing. The chaat stall and date preparation were so sweet. Mihir remembering her preferences, bringing her jewellery and red lipstick, and singing the same song he had once stopped made the romance feel nostalgic and healing. The family moments were also lovely, especially the children’s card, Pari’s saree, Mitali’s letter, and Gautam returning home permanently.

Tulsi truly received everything she had been missing. This chapter made me smile and become emotional at the same time. You gave us romance, healing, family love, and a real sense that Mihir and Tulsi’s new love story has finally begun.

Thank you for writing the kind of romantic moments I had been hoping to read.

Hey! I just finished reading Chapter 35 and wanted to take the time to write a proper review because this chapter really deserved one. “Pehli Date” turned out to be one of the most emotionally satisfying chapters in the story so far.

Hey dear, thank you so much for this prompt and beautiful review. So very glad you found this chapter emotionally satisfying, and enjoyed reading it

What impressed me most was how you managed to pack so much into a single day without it feeling rushed or overwhelming. The chapter beautifully balances big emotional payoffs with quiet, intimate moments.
Oh don’t ask - when i planned that entire scene with the huge family, I felt it a very daunting task and dint know how to execute it. But Vibrant/bpatil really helped me with a few gift ideas from everyone.. but still it was a challenging scene to write. Glad it didn’t overwhelm or feel rushed and came out balanced

From the very beginning, Mihir reading the newspaper supplement and those small involuntary sounds of relief and pride were so well written. You could feel his genuine awe at Tulsi’s achievements and how deeply he understands her.
Yes he’s always been proud of her - that much was always apparent from the show in the beginning itself - and now with how she created bandhej and how successful it is, he’s awed.

The temple conversation later, where he finally opens up about everything he did behind the scenes — the article, the coffee table book, his trip to Anjaar — was a highlight for me. It gave Mihir real depth and showed his growth, while Tulsi’s calm strength and her request for him to let go of his guilt felt very true to her character.
Yes it is a conscious effort on my part to show his growth and how much depth he now has. I’m so glad that temple scene came out well- the challenge was to stick to both their characters. Yes about his guilt - you will see in next chapter how let’s go of it.. consciously. Just to make sure she enjoys the courtship.

The family scenes were pure joy. The children’s giant handmade card, with each kid’s unique contribution (especially Timsy’s rainbow), was adorable and heartfelt. Pari’s saree gift, made with her own hands and paid for from her salary, was such a powerful moment of growth for her. I loved how Tulsi responded — acknowledging the imperfections as proof that it was truly hers. Gautam’s surprise return with the suitcases was a wonderful payoff after all the tension with him, and the way it tied into Damini’s quiet happiness added another lovely layer.
Hey thank u so much for saying this.. I’m so glad my efforts (and bpatil’s ideas) worked so well..I just had to think what gift could each and every person give her, that would make her happiest

Even the smaller details shone — the way the family gathered, the gifts from Shobha, Ritik, Vrinda and Angad, and Mitali’s thoughtful letter. You gave every relationship space to breathe. The Noina subplot at the end added necessary tension and realism, showing that not everything is perfectly resolved yet, which made the celebratory moments feel even more earned.

I believe that the heart of a good story is in its details. glad the details were on place.

Your writing continues to impress with its emotional honesty and attention to cultural nuances. The chaat stall date at the end was the perfect way to close the chapter — simple, nostalgic, and full of the kind of everyday happiness this couple has been working toward. It was a beautiful reminder that love can also be found in the small, familiar things.

Touched by ur words..

but I hope you read the entire chapter- because the chaat date wasn’t the end of it.

Overall, this chapter left me with a warm, hopeful feeling. It showed healing, growth, pride, and love in a way that felt authentic to these characters. Thank you for writing something so heartfelt. I’m really looking forward to Chapter 36 and whatever comes next for this family!

Your words leave me speechless. Readers saying stuff like this - is what makes writing the grueling long chapters worth it.,. Keep the love coming and I will continue to give such chapters ❤️😁

This is the only review I could manage not getting spammed so couldn’t give a more detailed one!

IF does behave weird at times- even I had problems posting my chapters a few times

Thank you soooo very much again! My replies in red

Chapter 35… The most awaited chapter! 🤩

Arre even I had been waiting to write these scenes since much before I wrote the first chapter

Thank you for such a beautiful chapter.

Entirely my pleasure dear..

I loved how the kids, the entire family, and the Bandhej girls celebrated Tulsi’s birthday. Every gift felt so thoughtful and personal, and Gautam coming back was truly the cherry on top.

BPatil helped me with brainstorming ideas for everyone’s gifts- glad it came out so well.

I did find the kids’ portion a little long only because my impatient brain kept wanting to jump to the TuHir scenes 😄, but it was adorable nonetheless.

I kind of feared that - but I find the kids here soo very adorable that they had to get a long section. Don’t worry the next chapter too is full of TuHir

One of my favorite things was how you paralleled so many moments from the past - taking her out to eat her favorite pani puri and chaat, the red lipstick, the song, Mihir singing in the car. They beautifully highlighted how much Mihir has changed and how Tulsi is slowly noticing, trusting, and healing. Those little callbacks make their journey feel so rewarding. ❤️🤗

Yes that was needed naa .. romance plus healing old wounds - 7 years back when tulsi asked him for a date he agreed so reluctantly and then behaved like a complete jerk on the date itself. So he needs to heal that first before she can fully relax in his presence without thinking of the possibility of being hurt or snubbed again.

Noina remains so true to her character, always trying to ruin Tulsi’s happiness. At this point, it almost feels like she’s less obsessed with Mihir and more obsessed with making Tulsi miserable out of jealousy and spite. Seeing the Viranis follow through on what they promised and the banks shutting their doors on her was satisfying. She’s already facing the consequences of her own actions. Sadak pe aa hi gayi almost 😃

@bold - frankly that’s the idea i have often gotten- she’s more obsessed with hurting tulsi tulsi than getting Mihir.

Correct! I so enjoyed writing Angads casual conversation with the bank manager at the golf course in a previous chapter- it was an example of how they’re implementing the financial squeeze on her, yes she’s ruined financially- as u say almost Sadak pe aa gayi!

One thing I would have loved to see was a small scene of the other Bandhej employees celebrating Tulsi as well, maybe with Pari mentioning it later to the family. It would have further shown everyone just how loved, respected, and cherished Tulsi is beyond the Virani family too.

Yes especially because you requested, I wrote such a scene in the next chapter

And Mihir… what can I say! Every little surprise he planned reflected someone completely smitten with the woman he loves. He’s determined to make up for every birthday he couldn’t give her the happiness she deserved, and I love that the day isn’t over yet. 😍

yes, Mihir especially is more in love with her mode than ever before! Tulsi too, though she won’t admit it. Yes he’s making up! For every birthday he missed.

yes only half the day yet - the first date is in progress

Now I’m eagerly waiting to see what happens next.. Noina’s next move at Amaya, whether she’s shown the door or creates scene there.. her reaction when Tulsi accompanies Mihir for the share transfer, what’s written in Mitali’s letter, and so many other threads you’ve left us excited about.

Yes the Amaya scene has turned out beautifully I think ( but of course you will be able to judge better when you read it in next chapter…

Mitalis letter and gayatris gift in chapter 37 - 36 had so much covered already.

Please don’t keep us waiting for too long! 😇❤️

Next chapter probably by noon tomorrow

Thank you soo much for this beautiful review! My replies in red

Oh sorry I didn’t notice I have read the entire chapter but while writing the review it kept showing spam so I edited things in between and didn’t notice that I wrote chaat date as the end….

Hey thank you for this feedback

Yes Gautam being away from family only had an outsider view- he had no idea about the recent disclosures - yes it’s so embarrassing for any father to explain such things to son.
Glad tulsi Damini scene came out well and glad I could portray Damini’s loneliness so well.

Thanks again!

Wow dear, one good thing that’s coming out of this ff is that because of you, I am discovering and rediscovering soo many soulfully melodious songs with such beautiful lyrics!

This song- which I rediscovered (I knew it but forgot) now - is sooo apt.

Once again, you surprised me dear!❤️

90's Kumar sanu, Udit Narayan, Alka Yagnik, Sonu Nigam, Kavita Krishnamurty gave so many songs, catchy music, easy lyrics appears straight from the heart ❤️.

Hey thank you.Glad it helps you recall those forgotten once.

Chapter 35:

Omg it's so lovely. It continued from the last chapter after Mihir's proposal, it's a blend of emotions, love , yearning, romantic , subtle, true to TuHir. Missing puzzle cards getting fixed at the right places one by one. Probably this is no more incomplete, however it is imperfectly perfect❤️❤️.

Hey dear, thank you sooo much for this lovely review. I am trying my best to keep it true to TuHir while using my own unique ideas- so glad I am succeeding. Yes in a way story writing, especially with so many characters is like puzzle. Yes exactly- imperfectly perfect.
Mihir's inquisitiveness to read how the article has come out, is the right information being published in the right manner, with appropriate words, which displays facts just facts, no made up or masala in it, mere facts, in adequate quantity

Yes - he collected all info in anjar for 3 days and then had to just hand over everything to joshi without any control on what gets published and how! Hes been on tenterhooks last few days ki kaise publish hoga.

Tulsi noticing him, Mihir appreciating the article, making sounds of appreciation, overwhelmed, mesmerized, proud, a sight visibly to hold in your eyes. The worldy recognition motivates one to be better of you everytime, however the appreciation, the proud feeling, in your loved one's eyes is much more greater than any worldly rewards. success felt in your own people eye holds much bigger value than anything else. Apnoan ki ankhoan me khushi, prasannata dekhne ko milta hai na wo kisi awards se compare nhi kiya ja sakta. Aapki success apnoan ne jab proudly flaunt kiya ho, wo bhaav dikhaya ho to, usse bada satisfaction kuch nhi insan ke liye. Tulsi is going thru the same phase, mihir expressing his happiness over her success, he admires her to the core. it's not out of compulsion, not out of guilt, not out of compensation for his past deeds, but pure admiration for the ecosystem she built from the scratch. his respect and love for her has no bounds. He is on cloud nine, probably Tulsi ko bhi shayad sarthak lagne laga hai apni jeevan ki uplabdhi. Haan ussko pata hai ki koi bhi cheez sar pe na chadhe and she rightly said credit has to be given to the Bandhej people.

Yes.. glad his reactions when reading came out well.
Exactly - duniya kitna bhi praise kare but when your loved one praises you - tan bhi lagta hai ki you have actually achieved something worthwhile

Tulsi probably is falling in love with this man again, she knew somewhere it's all arranged by him. Mihir trying to avoid or getting away from her surveillance but wife instincts bhi kuch hota hai janab😂😂😂, he knew it she caught him, kuch to idea hai Tulsi ko bhi hai when she said, jis kisine bhi kiya soch samjh ke wohi info reveal kiya hai, jo Bandhej ka ho. The word "Usne" gave hint to Mihir as well. For time being he is relieved enthusiast kids came in, they cutely wished her. They all pouncing at her, Mihir holding her cup, so that she gets composed, inn sab me mujhe Chemistry dikhrhi hai writer, you are fabulous here. The small nuances exhibit picture perfect TuHir emotions.

Exactly they are both falling in love all over again - this time it’s different kind of love - mature, deep - than 44 years ago!

Yes - Mihir knows he can’t hide anything from her - phir bhi Banda pata nahi kyun try karta hai.. yes philhaal toh tulsi didn’t know whether to burst his bubble by asking him + plus kids coming out - dono ne bacha liya mihir ko - only for the time being..

chemistry toh definitely hai hi - TuHir chemistry ki toh baat hi aur hai..

Omg, The Rose Tulsi picking up with herself while moving in, Mihir smiling back his happiness, her satisfaction level, too romantic ❤️😜. Kids asking question about grandpa's gift she shared half(, kuch apne liye bhi bachayegi😜 na), then answering by themselves, their observation is more perfect, Tulsi has to divert their mind.

kids these days are soo smart naa.. even love how the smiles came out while taking rose inside.

I loved the kids little hand made drawing, it's so cute. Can't explain I can visualize their super excited faces, who is best wala look, quiet waiting for Baa/Naani's appreciation and liking, that inquisitiveness brilliant.

I’m so happy that kids part came out well

Gautam's surprise phone call, Tulsi wants her son as a gift, then suddenly his arrival and the family gathering, banters happiness class.

Gautam toh baat aise karta hai ki it’s difficult to write dialogues for him.. glad I succeeded

Vrinda n Angad's gift sensible, Rithik gave a handbag good idea- logo embossed , by this Virani's can think of a parallel Business expansion into handbags too😜😂. Mithali felt something strange when she heard it's Munni's idea. Shobha the daughter has given her mother all the memories back, emotional family moments. Chachi's bangle with blessings n love, true elderly way of wishing their favorite person. I 'm really really curious to know what's Mithali's letter contain.

Glad the gifts part came out well!! Many of the ideas were yours - so a big thank you - Mitalis letter will be read in chapter 37

Gayatri chachi ne koi outing ka ticket to nhi diya Mihir n Tulsi ko? or did she write something about Mihir's emotional break downs which he shared to her when Tulsi was away from home for 6yrs? I'm curios too.

gayatri chachi- u will know in chapter 37 - but I think there too Aap hi ka idea I used

Munni to gujiya le aayi,😂 perfect.

I think this too was your idea😂

Accha tab laga, as a writer, you have not taken the liberty of presenting Pari's perfect saree. Instead you chose to show imperfect, unfinished designs, the beginner level print on the saree with lots of mistakes. It shows the confidence of the trainee doing something, putting effort, though imperfect but having the will to complete something on her own. Tulsi appreciated her hardwork and effort by wearing it, not just to boost her daughter's confidence, but as a proud mother and employer of Bandhej. Too good.

Yes I am trying to keep everything realistic! Yes glad that idea was executed well- tulsi couldn’t have shown a better appreciation- than wearing it for whole day.

Arre ye Aarti n Vaishnvi aagye wish kiye. These people signalling Mihir secretly as if no one is watching, but Tulsi se kaha bachenge teenoan, Tulsi knew all three very well. Ye wahi baat hui na billi aankh moond ke dudh peeye 😂 aur soche ki koi nhi dekh rha mujhe😜’

Yes correct - bilkul sahi example - billi ka😂😂

Noina se kaha reh jaayega, she has to somehow disturb TuHir, especially Mihir. And Mihir's composure and displeasure to not attend her calls, his change in facial express every time he gets her call and silences, he is disturbed Tulsi can make out by his movements n breathing pattern.

haan Noina ki fitrat!

Yes TuHir are now very intuned to each other- pehle jab baat tak nahi hoti thi tab bhi the.. ab toh!!

Damini's healthier version Cake 🍰.( although i consider nothing is healthier here when it comes to these modern food items, choddo😟)

Arre don’t get me started on cake!! I so hate cake - I don’t like cutting cake Kyunki phir sab khilaate hain

Mihir ki bhi baari aagyi, he feeding her first quite 🥰 then she in turn feeding him back with shy exemplifies their emotions ,long lost warmth, newly budding love, obviously first PDA after so many years 😊 . Shobha n others were happy to capture this moment again❤️.

Yes it’s a bit awkward naa - esp at that age and when she herself said a few months ago ki she has no relationship with Mihir now

Mihir on his toes , arranging something , asking Tulsi to skip BF n join him, she saying ok with lots of calculations in mind agreeing, the gift delivering exactly at the right moment, and Tulsi lost but suggesting her open in the car, Tulsi overwhelmed, speechless seeing her work is been now recorded in a book, then the Temple visit, Tulsi's confronting him, confession, happiness, moist eyes , her kneeling on his shoulders too good. beautiful as a couple , they do not need more words to express their happiness. it always feels great to be around the person who loves you the most, his or her smallest thing does for you makes emotional , happy tears, swollen throat so speechless, these speak much more than the words could do, They needed the "me" time , perfectly blended by you here writer, kudos.. Mihir ka book me capture karwana , recognition dilana, not because he can use his influences but bcos she deserves it not just for TULSi but many woman who have been part of Bandhej, she served as servant leader who uplifted people selflessly.

Yes wohi toh - he’s literally planned almost every minute of at least the morning when he could jave her to himself solely - Shaam ko toh he knows family will claim her time.. plus Bandhej walon ka bhi haq hai uspe. Also he wanted her to read the Book in relative privacy while he was driving her. I am so happy the temple scene came out so well!! Had to keep a hold on tulsis character there - she’s not someone jo Kuch bhi easily accept karle - especially recognition like this..

Swad k aansoan , reminding their old ritual. Pani poori in breakfast is shocker for me, however, when you wear yellow , everything around you looks gold. pyar me ud rahe do panchii neel gagan mein hahaha..

arre mujhe bhi ajeeb laga likhte hue - but the way I had planned the entire day, yehi time tha..

uff Noina ke baare me kya kahoon, you protrayed her negative thoughts to spoil their togetherness, jealousy at it's peak, choosing this day to humiliate Tulsi, make her think twice on her life with Mihir. Her finances to recover she needs Mihir Virani, but If she succeeds to get Mihir Virani himself then Finances doesn't matter at all for her win win situation in any case. Her evil plans Messages , tactful move you portrayed her frustration , jealousy, restlessness, scheming to ruin Tulsi's day, she knew Mihir is not gonna be after her any more, so is using Tulsi to emotionally loose the battle, in order to succeed and attain her motive. Hatsoff.

Really a big thank u for this - trust me it’s so difficult to get into Noinas psychology- ki uska ye part likhne ke baad I needed an hour and half before I could resume my writing about TuHir scene..

Tulsi knew in and out of him, he not hiding any secrets handing over his phone, Tulsi and Mihir knew her motive , so they have a plan too as a team brilliant.

Exactly - ye toh Noina ne socha hi nahi hoga

Yar Mihir thakta hi nahi Kitne plans banake batha hai, the last wala paintra mujhe treat de do he is dancing at heart when she agreed. He escaping the Bandhej party , as it is her time with her colleagues who built Bandhej together, sensible.

Yes he’s been planning her birthday for 2 months- even before she decided to give him another chance toh ab post dhuleti toh of course he will na.

smart writer: phone pe info leak karadiya Noina ko Mihir Tulsi ka "Date" , chalo accha hai curiosity barqarar hai.

I wanted her there - because one reader - atm I don’t remember who - wanted Noina to see TuHir romance and burn with envy. Amd I try my best to give readers what they ask for..

let's see how Noina enters the restuarant, curious is Mihiir n Tulsi enjoy their meal???

I think you will like my ideas there

I loved reading this longesttt chapter, it brought smile on my face every time I read the characters, the emotions portrayed, the affection they showed, every family member is as excited as the other to make Tulsi feel special on her day. They knew she deserves best ever moments with her family whom she lived her life entirely, it's pay back time , they did in their own way, not with too expensive things but with affection and love , keeping Tulsi's choices and likes in mind.

Oh so glad tulsi being truly cherished by one and all - came out well. Correct - she dedicated herself entirely to this family now the family is paying her back - esp when they saw naa kya haalat hui when she wasn’t there..

Kudos to writer for many things in this chapter: small gestures like Mihir holding her cup, Vaishnvi, Aarti Signaling Mihir and Tulsi noticing it, Tulsi collecting her rose, sharing her happiness with the kids , then diverting them, Tulsi asking Kamla join for cake cutting , then she going to feed the elders basis seniority (Indian thing lolz) When Mihir Tulsi fed cake to each other happy faces around, Tulsi admiring Pari, advising her to be disciplined, Tulsi noticing Mihir's tighten ,displeased face when his phone rang, Mitali change in facial expression when she heard Logo Idea imprinted on Rithik's Bag is of Munni, Mihir's agenda behind urgent meeting she caught something it lolz

Thank you so much dear.. I am so glad i could portray so many aspects well together - that’s been a real challenge

Thank you dear. Replies in Red
