Since Qazi is in Top 4, he is asked by Sony to lease a flat in Lokhandwala in Mumbai.
Qazi does not know registration procedure in Mumbai, so he requests Sony TV to ask one of his fans who knows about the registration in Mumbai, to accompany him to the registrar office and thus my story with him for the day starts….
I take 6.55 Jet airways flight to Mumbai, dressed for the occasion, I was given Qazi cell number and Sony also arranged for the car pick up at Mumbai airport.
As I get down from the plane at 8.55 hrs I receive a SMS from…
Qazi: I am waiting in white colored Santro Zing and the number of the car is 2708.
I am thrilled to see him and I am kind of floored, he is so handsome. (You see I have very small 14" inch TV hence he looks much bigger and clearer in person).
Qazi: so what time did you get up in morning to come to Mumbai?
Me: 05.20.
Qazi: Why so early.
Me: I am always happen to drop my boarding pass and get delayed, and I use the loo quite often in the plane and wanted the aisle seat so had to reach early for that.
I was dressed for the occasion and I could see Qazi secretly admiring me, I was wearing sleeveless with low neck line, and I could secretly see Qazi trying to figure out something.
So we were at the registrar office waiting for his turn to come, so when his number came, Qazi sat in front of a camera to get a photo and thumb impression, however unfortunately he had forgotten to carry his identity proof and he was asked to come back again tomorrow, however I requested the registrar to do registration and we would submit the ID card in the evening, other people who were standing in the line started shouting to keep it pending, suddenly Qazi got angry with one of the person who was shouting.
Qazi: how dare you talk like this? You cannot be rude to a lady.
Other Person (with folded hands sarcastically says): Mere baap abhi jaa idhar sey.
Qazi then called Sony TV office to fax his ID card and he got the registration done it was already 12.00 Noon.
Qazi: what time is your flight?
Me: 4.00 clock in the evening.
Qazi: why so early, wouldn't you like to stay with me for some more time?
Me: I would love to however my Travel Agent says this is only flight available.
Qazi calls up Sony office and asks if the flights are available for 8.00 PM, Sony says that seats are on Wait list and I need to cancel my 4.00 clock flight and get WL in 8.00 PM, we both agree since we would be getting more time with each other.
Qazi: so what is the plan, where would you like to have your lunch? How about Taj Mahal Hotel,
Me:OK, that's great idea, I never been to any 5 star hotel before and I would love to see Gateway of India, I have seen it only in the photos.
So we are off from Bandra to Taj Mahal Hotel at Gateway of India, during our journey, Qazi shows me the various landmarks in Mumbai, I could see him secretly glancing at me while I am looking at the landmarks outside the window of the car, I am afraid and also little happy at his intentions, he wants to enjoy my company.
It is nearly 4.00 PM and Qazi calls up the Sony to check whether the 8.00 clock flight tickets are confirmed or not.
Qazi: oohey prashant did you get the 8.00 clock flight ticket.
Prashant: I had got the 4.00 clock ticket cancelled and her 8.00 clock ticket is wait listed.
Qazi angrily: when will it get confirmed.
Prashant: whats your problem, enjoy her company; I will try to get it confirmed.
Finally we start for the airport and when we reach there we are told that the tickets are still not confirmed, it is already 7.30 PM, and we are still waiting at the lounge, then finally I am told that the plane will take off without me, and tickets are to be cancelled.
Sony sensing opportunity requests me to stay back in Mumbai for they intend to start 2FG for charity for mentally retarded viewers of Sony, I ask what FGF is, and they tell me it is wrestling competition for 10 Fame Gurukul Fans and I was the first lucky contestant.
