Meendum Meendum
II was oblivious to Appa's free legal defense, she was floating ever since Sumati called her that first time,
gently making her way down to the earth whenever she clashed with him, but was able to quickly hoist herself back up and stay afloat
Nivi was much better, Amma and Appa watched her through Sunday night, and Monday morning, Athai and Amma dropped them off at the airport
Her studio appointment for trial recording was Wednesday
Composer meeting Thursday
Lyricist and Music Director and movie Director meeting thursday
She still owed them signed documents with the lawyer signatures
Sumati would have sent it to Delhi on the Monday she was flying out to Chennai
II brushed up difficult Tamil words on her ride
In al this excitement of going to become a singer and heart break of being spoken to so indifferently by R&B she forgot to check on Ranjan on Sunday, and on Monday
Sam texted her while she waited at the gate to wish her good luck even then it didnt occur to her to say a word to Ranjan
They reached Chennai after a delay and layover in Nagpur for 2 hours
It was almost dinner time
When she landed at the airport she realized they had to head to Nungambakkam
Thats when she called Ranjan
He sounded sad but cheerful
He was appreciative of her calling
"Aap R&B ko bata denge?" his phone is turned off" she lied
Tuesday was a fabulous day for her
After a awesome breakfast and listeningt o Tamil radio all morning, they arrived at the studio for the meeting
There was even a couple of press guys that requested a picture
In a day and age of Super Singer and Indian Idol Tamil and half a dozen other talent shows, the fact that someone dug her up and found her in Delhi was nothing short of a miracle
Tamil cinema hired a new singer for every movie, unless u were SP Chitra or Chinmayee you didnt get a second offer
II sang nervously, missing a couple beats but did well
The music director was debut as well a Vee. Selva Kumar the "Vee" a numerology obsession
Ii chuckled and wondered if she should call herself AIEEEYAR or something
Appa brought Nivi to the studio at 3 ish when she was still not done
VAA DEE RAKSHASI
AMMA IS GOING TO SING
U CAN WATCH
She didnt call Dude, just texted him Nivi's picture or two during the day
He didnt call or email her...
It nagged her but life at present was a euphoric scintillating journey she chalked it down to a busy husband
II gave her a self guided tour
Appa was atleast 10 kg heavier, swollen with pride
He had already posted 7 pics on his FB page, and called Amma three times
They returned home wearily at after 7
Wednesday was similar
5 AM on Thursday morning Sam was on the internet trying to escape from in laws for a bit, bored, and looking for things to do, she Googled the studio and found an article
"Ishita Iyer to sing for Vijay Sethupathi's lover in Meendum Meendum" (again & Again)
She was thrilled to read the news, it had a jpeg of some Tamil press release she couldnt understand head or tail of
she sent it to R&B
He read it first thing when he woke the "Ishita Iyer" magnified to a 25 font size
"is she no longer married?" he wondered
Feeling a sharp surge of anger mixed with jealousy at being left out completely from wife's impending stardom
