Sanaya's POV

I was in my school doing our daily activity when I received a call.

Motioning my students to continue I went to attend the call.

"Hi. Aaj iss waqt call kaise? Tu kaam pr nhi hai kya?"

(How did you call today? Are you not at work?)

"Hi. Kaam pr hi hu. Tujhse kaam tha yaar."

(I am. I had a work.)

"Haan bol na."

(Yes tell me.)

"Sanu tere liye ek offer hai. The company I am working with is working on a show. Lekin uski jo lead actress thi usne last moment par cancel kr dia. Aur iss waqt auditions karwana would be a waste of time and money. Tu uss role ke liye fit baithti hai. Are you interested?"

(There's an offer for you. The lead actress cancelled on last moment. You are fit for the role.)

I heard her say and I went still for a second. A show? 

"Ofcourse I am. Kis baare mai hai show?"

(What is it about?)

"Wo sab mai tujhe milke batati hu. Mai tujhe address bhej rhi hu. Tu yaha pahuch jaldi se jaldi."

(I'll tell you after meeting. I am sending you the address. Reach here quickly.)

"Abhi?"

(Right now?)

"Haan."

(Yes.)

"Lekin Priya-mai abhi nhi aa skti. School chal rha hai. Bachhe aa chuke hai."

(But I can't come right now. School if on. The kids are here.)

"Please meri jaan. Agar tu nhi aayi toh mera boss mujhe kacha chaba jaayega. Please."

(If you don't come now my boss will eat me raw.)

I looked back at the children who were doing their activity with utmost interest.

"Ok. Give me two hours. Mai sab wind up krke aati hu."

(I'll come after winding up.)

"Thank you so much. Mai wait kr rhi hu."

(I am waiting.)

She said in a relieving tone and disconnected the call. The next second my phone pinged with her message. She had send me the address and the location.

I go back to where my students were.

"Guys! I have to go somewhere. Aaj ki class cut-short krni padegi. I am really sorry."

(We'll have to cut short.)

They all look at me and nod with smiles on their faces.

"Its ok mam. We understand."

I smile and wait till they all disperse to their homes.

I close the studio and call mumma that I was going to meet Priya and will probably be late.

I then took a rickshaw and started off to the address Priya had send.

I reached there in an hour. I pay the rickshaw driver and look at the building in front of me.

Silver Night Studio

Hmm. The building looks nice. 

Jai Shree Krishna! Let's rock it!

I enter the building and the man at the reception asks me where I want to go. Before I can answer I heard a loud voice.

"Sanu! Thank God tu aa gyi. Chal mere saath before that boss of mine eats me."

(Thank God you came. Come with me.)

I look at her raising my eyebrow at her statement and she groans instantly understanding what I wanted to imply.

"Argh! Not in that sense you dirty girl. Chal ab."

(Come now.)

I smile naughtily and she groans. We enter what looked like the shooting area.

I see two men sitting in a corner discussing something.

One of theirs back was to me. The other seemed like Priya's boss because he looked at her and nodded.

Priya introduced us and we shook hands.

"Thank you so much for coming on such short notice."

I smiled and said.

"Thank you sir. For giving me this opportunity."

He smiled in return. He doesn't seem so bad like she was exaggerating.

"Ok so. Priya have you told her what this drama would be about?"

She shakes her head slowly and he looks at her and shakes his head as if expecting that.

Karan's POV

I was waiting for the new lead actress to arrive while Raghav, who is the story writer and director of the show gave me the briefs about what the drama would be based on.

I saw him looking at someone behind me and he shook hands with the girl who was going to be my co-actress.

I looked at her and my smile vanished.

No! It can't be her. Out of all the people in the world she has to be my co-actress. That too in a romantic drama.

Argh!

Raghav then introduces us and she turns to me with a smile which soon turns into an expression of shock.

"Tum?"

(You?)

I roll my eyes and she looks at me with irritation.

"Ye mera co-lead hoga?"

(He is going to be my co-lead?)

She asked Raghav and he nodded confused.

Well, let me tell you. We were rivals since school.

She was my junior but teachers always preferred her for any theatre performance.

She was phenomenal no doubt but still. She is my rival.

"Umm is there anything wrong?"

Raghav asks uncertain.

"Haan. Iska dimaag."

(Yes. His brain.)

She says and gives me a stink eye.

"Shut up. Maine kuch kaha bhi nhi hai tumhe. Tameez mai raho apni. Badtameez ladki."

(I did not day anything to you. Stay in you limits. Stupid girl.)

I had had enough of her bakwaas. I am not saying doesn't mean she will say anything.

"Oyee! Badtameez hoge tum. Don't talk to me like that."

(You might be stupid.)

"Shuru kisne kia tha?"

(Who started?)

I said. She was about to say something when Raghav interrupted.

"What the hell guys? What's wrong?"

"Ye mera co-lead nhi ho skta."

(He can't be my co-lead.)

"Ye meri co-lead nhi ho skti."

(She can't be my co-lead.)

We said together and glared at each other.

"Agar tumhe itni problem hai toh tum dono hi yaha se jaa skte ho. I'll find someone else."

(If you guys have so much problem you both can leave.)

He said with a hint of irritation in his voice. 

I looked at him wide eyed and said.

"Nhi. I am sorry."

(No.)

"Nhi. I am sorry."

(No.)

Again we both said together and glared at each other.

He sighed and said.

"Fine. Agar tumhe kaam krna hai toh civilised logo ki tarah rehna padega. No fights on my set."

(If you want to work then you have to be civilised.)

He said and I nodded. I can't lose this opportunity because of this girl.

"Great! Toh let me brief you with what the drama will be about. Karan ko already pata hai. Mai aapko Miss-"

(Karan already knows. I'll tell you Miss-)

"Sanaya."

"Miss Sanaya. Mai aapko bata deta hu."

(I'll tell you.)

"Only Sanaya will do Sir."

He smiled and nodded.

"Ok. So this is a simple and romantic story. A little mature. The male lead is living a simple life. He meets the female lead in a club jaha wo apne friends ke insistence pr jaata hai. He is instantly intrigued and for the first time in his life wo kisi ladki ko approach krta hai. The two share a steamy dance session on the floor followed by a night of passion. Phir around a month later, he meets her again in a supermarket and finds out that she is his new neighbour. Aur phir dono ki love story shuru hoti hai with lots of banters, emotions and ofcourse romance."

(Where he goes on his friends instance. He approaches a girl. And their love story starts.)

He says it all over again. Honestly I was ok before when he told me but now imagining all this with this girl I don't like it. But I can't let this opportunity go.

"So? Do you guys have any issues with the storyline? Can we proceed with the further details.?"

We nod and he then proceed with explaining the rest of the things.
