"Shivansh, I think now will be a perfect time for you to share the news of your marriage on the official website of our family." Pratap suggests drinking his tea as it's already been three days since the wedding has happened.
"Hmm, I also agree with Bhaiya. The more time you take the more they will telecast false informations, especially about Jivika." Abhinav says looking at his nephew who is sitting on his chair looking completely unbothered.
"I will not release any official announcement about the marriage in the website. I have an excellent idea to introduce Jivika as my wife to everyone outside the palace." Shivansh replies taking a sip of his coffee.
"What are you planning to do?" Pratap asks because he can feel his son has planned something big.
"We have a lot of enemies who wants to degrade us by any chance they will get and I am sure it won't take them long to find out about Jivika being a widow. I hope you both know that not everyone is like us who wants to move forward with the changes that a society needs. So, I need to play in the safe side." Shivansh replies making his father and uncle confused.
"Don't talk in riddles, Shivansh. Directly come to the main point." Abhinav says getting impatient.
"Are you planning to hide about Jivika being a widow?" Pratap asks his son who shakes his head.
"Never I will hide something about Jivika because everyone deserve to know how strong she is to overcome every hurdle in her life." Shivansh replies in a sharp tone because he is proud of his wife.
"Then what are you implying to do, Bhaiya?" Ritika asks from the entrance of the study room where the gents are having the discussion.
"Just like a King is nothing without his Queen same way a Kingdom is nothing without it's people. So, I will introduce Jivika to our people first and not visually, directly by going in front of them." Shivansh replies looking confident.
"But what if they say something bad to Jivika?" Ritika asks feeling worried about her bestie who is now her sister-in-law too.
"Let Jivika handle them. I have my full faith on her selfless nature and I believe that this quality of her will be the biggest weapon to win our people's heart." Shivansh replies making everyone present in the room smile because they know that Shivansh is absolutely correct in his decision.

When Jivika gets to know about Shivansh's plan she literally freaks out because what else she is supposed to do then. She knows that being the wife of the King is a huge responsibility but going in front of a huge crowd, it's a totally different thing.
However, her husband's assurance makes her calm down a little and that's why right now she is busy in getting ready to meet their people with the help of Ritika.
On the other hand, the news about the King coming to meet his people outside the palace has spread like fire. Even the reporters are now anxious to finally get a glimpse of the lucky girl who has captured the heart of the cold-hearted King Shivansh Singh Rathore.
The people of Rajasthan is also very eager to see their new Queen. They have gathered many gifts for their new Queen according to their capacity hoping that their Queen will atleast take a glimpse of the gifts her poor people want to give her for her wedding with their King.
King Shivansh is their savior whenever they get in trouble. So, now they just hope that their Queen will also be a good-hearted person to hear their pleas.
Finally, Jivika is fully ready in a simple yet elegant silk saree with minimal makeup on her face. Her hair is tucked into a neat bun which has jasmine flowers attached to it. She has selected a gold necklace set leaving the idea of wearing any diamond sets. Her hands are already adorned with her Chuda which she can't take off before the completion of the 45 days of their marriage. Her hair partition is filled with thick layer of sindoor just how she likes. Lastly, she is wearing the anklets gifted by her husband which she has decided to never take off.
She walks out of her room along with Ritika who will be joining the meet-up too.
When they reach downstairs everyone is already present there. But Jivika's eyes gets stuck on Shivansh who is also staring at her. Both are so busy in looking at each other that they have completely forgotten about their family members present there who are fully enjoying the live romance they're witnessing. Finally, Raghuvendra clears his throat loudly breaking the newly wedded couple's invisible bubble because they're getting late to meet the people who are waiting for them outside the palace.
"We should leave now." Shivansh says looking here and there.
"Of course, we need to leave otherwise I wouldn't have disturbed you both." Raghuvendra remarks making Shivansh and Jivika's eyes widen realising that everyone has seen them looking at eachother.
After this no one make any comments and all the family members walks out of the palace. However, Shivansh and Jivika is walking behind as they will come to the front after Raghuvendra tells them.
The thousands of people who are present outside the huge gates of the palace ground waits anticipating to get the first glimpse of their Queen. They don't know how she will be, they just hope her to be a little generous towards them.
Finally the gates open and a Jeep comes out carrying the former King Raghuvendra Singh Rathore who joins his palms while a small smile present on his wrinkled face.
"The people of Rajasthan, I am very happy to see you here today. I know you have already heard about the news about your King getting married. So, with a lot of pleasure I want to convey the news that indeed King Shivansh Singh Rathore has finally gotten married." Raghuvendra says into the microphone so that everyone can hear.
Just as the official news of their King getting married hear by the people, they start shouting praises for their King and Queen. Seeing the positive response, Raghuvendra smiles and then hold his hand for everyone to keep quiet.
"However, I would like to let you know that your King has married a simple girl who isn't from another Kingdom, neither she is a big celebrity nor belongs to a business family. She is like you and that's the biggest reason for me to select her as my granddaughter-in-law as well as your Queen. I know just by hearing my words you may not believe but mark my words, she is the Queen who will become your biggest support system because she knows how to care, respect and cherish her loved ones. She is going to be the Queen for whom our Kingdom will be known everywhere in the world for centuries after centuries." Raghuvendra declares with a proud smile while Jivika clutches Shivansh's hand wondering if she will be really able to achieve what her grandfather-in-law just said about her.
Shivansh squeezes his wife hand back silently letting her know that she will achieve every single thing.
"Now I would be very happy if you make a path for your King and Queen as they want to do a walking rally. They would like to interact with their people directly and I think it will be a great idea for you to learn more about your Queen." As soon as Raghuvendra remarks, the people gather around in the sides making a path in the middle for their King and Queen to walk.
Raghuvendra gets down from the Jeep with Kavyansh's help who leads him inside the palace. On the other hand, everyone keeps holding their breathes knowing that anytime their King will walk out of the gate with their Queen.
Finally, a few minutes later Shivansh walks out of the gates holding his head high with Jivika beside him who has draped the pallu of her saree over her head. While Shivansh's face is void of any emotions just like he likes to keep it, Jivika has a sweet smile adoring her face.
Everyone gets stunned seeing the beauty of their new Queen but what attracts them the most is her soothing aura which is letting them know that the words said by their former King will come out to be true. Even the reporters who were ready to deliver some gossip in their channels after learning about the Queen not belonged from a prestigious family, now wants to bow down in front of their Queen.
"Everyone, meet my wife and your Queen Jivika Shivansh Singh Rathore." Shivansh declares looking at the crowd while Jivika folds her palms together and bows her head a little to show respect towards everyone.
All the person present in the crowd get shocked because it's out of the custom for a Queen to bow down in front of her people.
"Rani Sa, you shouldn't bow down in front of us." One of the older lady says who is standing in the front row of the crowd.
"Dadi, before being your Rani Sa I am a human being and it is said in our Hindu custom that whenever we are introduced to someone new or especially an elder we should take their blessings. I am sure there are a lot of elders present here in the crowd but as I can't go to everyone, I have taken their blessings from here." Jivika answers with honesty while the older woman has tears in her eyes along with many others.
Right there in that moment the people of Rajasthan come to understand that this Queen will behave as Goddess Parvati but when needs will arise she will fight like Goddess Durga for the well-being of her people.
