lazy Sunday

Ek ladki ki yeh kahani Bengaluru ki ek pyari si basti mein shuru hoti hai. Uski naam hai Ananya. Woh ek IT company mein kaam karti hai aur apne busy schedule ke beech, uski maa ko yaad karna uske liye ek khushnuma anubhav hai.

Ananya ka dil uski maa ke hath ka khana khane ka hai. Maa ki khushbu, uske haatho ka jadoo, aur pyaar bhare swad ke bina, kisi bhi khane ka maza nahi aata tha. Ananya bachpan se hi apni maa ke saath rasoi mein khana pakane ki kala sikhti rahi thi, aur maa uske liye ek sabse badi guru ban gayi thi.

Lekin kuch mahino pehle, ek achanak sahadat ne Ananya ki zindagi mein dard aur tanhayi ko ghira diya. Uski maa ka swargwas ho gaya. Ananya ke liye yeh ek behad dukhad ghatna thi. Maa ke jaane se uske andar ek aisa khali aur akela sa mehsoos hone laga jaise usne kuchh kho diya ho.

Aaj, ek yaadgar din tha, jo Ananya aur uski maa har saal manate the. Maa ki yaadon ka jashn, maa ke haatho ka banaya hua pyaara sa khana khane ka, sab yaad aaya. Ananya apne kaam se chutti lekar, apne dil ki tadap ko shaant karne ke liye, maa ke pasandida khane ki recipe banane ka man bana.

Usne maa ki di hui purani notebook nikali, jisme maa ne khud apni recipes likhi thi. Usmein se "Maa ke haath ka dum aloo" ka page tha, jo Ananya ki maa ka sabse pyaara dish banane ka tarika tha. Ananya kitchen mein chali gayi aur sabziyon, masalon aur pyaaz lekar kaam mein lag gayi.

Jaise hi woh aloo ki mithi khushbu ne apni chonch mein liya, uski ankhon mein aansu bhar aaye. Maa ke saath bitaye pal, maa ki muskurahat, aur maa ke pyaar bhare hatho ka khana yaad aaya. Usne dhyaan se maa ki likhi hui recipe ka palan kiya aur aloo ka swad poora kiya.

Khana pakne ki khushbu puri ghar mein phail gayi. Ananya ne maa ke khane ko pyaar se saja kar ek sundar si thaali mein rakh diya. Uske saath ek pyaari si mithi si mithai, jise maa bade pyaar se banati thi. Ananya khud bhi mithai ko banati thi, lekin maa ke haath ki mithai ki koi misaal nahi thi.

Thaali taiyaar hone ke baad, Ananya apni mom ki tasveer ke saamne uski favourite ghazal gaane lagi. Ghar mein ek shaanti ka mahaul ban gaya tha, jaise maa ki ruh wahan maujood ho. Ananya ne apni mom ki yaadon ko samarpit kiya aur unki mohabbat se sajaya hua khana khaya.

Khana khaane ke baad, Ananya ne maa ki tasveer se baat karke apne dil ki baat kahi. Usne maa se kaha ki kitni yaad aa rahi hai, kitni kami mehsoos ho rahi hai, lekin woh apni maa ke sapne ko pura karne ka wada karti hai. Maa ka ashirwad uske saath hamesha hai, bas woh use mehsoos karna hai.

Ananya ka dil halka aur sukoon mil gaya tha, jaise maa uske paas thi aur use pyaar se chhoo rahi thi. Usne apni maa ke liye ek chhota sa mandir sajaya, jahan maa ki tasveer, diye, aur phool sajaye gaye. Usne wahan maa ke liye ek chadar bichai aur unki yaadon mein baith kar maa ko prarthana di.

Aaj se Ananya har saal apni maa ki yaadon ka jashn manati hai, uske haath ka khana banati hai, aur apne dil ki baat maa se share karti hai. Uske liye maa hamesha uske saath hai, bas ek alag roop mein. Uski maa ki mohabbat uske dil mein amar hai aur woh maa ke pyaar ko hamesha mehsoos karti rahegi.
