precap is interesting
happy women's day :)
I am not including the teaser 1 in any main part. Consider Manik's side happened somewhere before part 1 and Nandini's one after Part 1. ... Keep reminding me of unrevealed staffs... because I sometimes get to deep and loose things...and most importantly of inconsistencies...bloopers...hope there is none...but bring it on true readers...
Part 2: Old friends...old enemies
SPACE: 3 days after Nandini's break down
Manik's office:
Manik: I only attend meeting I think useful... Tell Mr Gupta to make a useful and short report on the meeting. Got it?
Mishraji: I get it Sir. But I had to ask you.
Manik: You can inform Cabir that I am free.
Mishraji: Cabir sir is with Rohaan...
Manik: Hmm... yaa I gave Rohaan some assignments under Cabir...ok you leave... and tell theem both to come after they are done...
Cabir and Rohaan... deeply busy with computer...
Rohaan: How about it now?
They are making a duet mash up on the song "Samjhawaan" mixing male and female version together...
Cabir listening...
Rohaan: What an idea sir... perfect song selection for boss and Nandini mam... you are genius
Cabir: Sshhh... let me listen...
...
Cabir: And Rohaan my dear... you are a sensation... I am so thankful to Manik that he wanted me to experiment your skill...And wondering what else you are capable of... u must be more than this one to be kept around Manik ...
Rohaan: Boss has all copyrights to our secrets. But I can say that I have been your big fan sir... Of your video bullies, your music as well as RJ... you have been...
Pion comes...
Pion: Manik sir informed that you both should meet him when you are free...
Cabir: Ok... we are almost done... Rohaan I have some important talks with Manik... let's go and see him... we will finalize the staff later...
Rohaan: Sure sir...
They enter Manik's office
Manik: Rohaan I won't take class this afternoon... I'll be out for lunch... it may take time...Cabir will take care of it as much as possible alone
Cabir: Hello... I am not your assistant...
Manik: you were the best friend around... last time I chacked...Rohaan you can leave...
Rohaan: Yes boss...
Cabir: You got the invitation... from Nakshatra...
Manik: That's what I wanted to talk about... they said it will be insiring that we perform ... and talk about our inspiration
Cabir: Hmm... we must perform as a team... that will be the best... but what do you want to say about Nandini being there... You know na that she works there...
Manik: Cabir... Pandit's school has been the biggest competition so far... he wants to win an upper hand over space... and he has all the contribution to Nandini... with current skills of her, he will definiteky want her as weapon against me...That is the first place I'll look for Nandini...
Cabir: (Laughs... )what an irony...You said you don't want to talk about it now... and I have been thinking that you are adjusting to the "closure" and waiting when you will ask me and Navya... why we ended up playing along with Nandini... Manik Malhotra... Why I should be surprised...You know more need talking with me for your problems...You are self sufficient
Manik: No I am self centered... Let's not bring out our personal differences now...
Cabir: No Manik... If you were self centered ... you would not have gave Navya job here... you would not hire baby sitter for Roshni to keep her at space
Manik: Those were for music... hope that answer fits your question...
Cabir: hmm... I definitely don't know you... But I know that the secret you kept ...the unrevealed disappearances of yours ...only drifted your best friends away
Manik: But I lost you earlier ... the day she left... Nothing was same between us after that... I lost your trust
Cabir: But I never left you... you know why... because you are my brother... I did not want to be orphan again...but You never let me in again...but always tried to protect me... I was stubborn too... I hated to be pitied ...
Manik: I never pitied you ... but everytime I offered you an opportunity, it's because you were best for that... because I ... I needed you... for ...for SPACE
Cabir: (gettimg some hint of old insecured Manik)... Manik we can get back to the comfort zone again... just let me in... give me some hint of what playing in your head... let me know your thoughts about Nandini... How are you feeling...spill Manik
Manik: What Nandini did was the right thing... if you can trust me... I will handle everything...
Cabir: So secrets will continue
Manik: Okay I have to attend a lunch meeting
Cabir: Secret one I guess
Manik: (ignores) I have not yet decided song for performing there... We can work o it tomorrow
Cabir: You can do whatever you wish...
ManiK: bye then
Manik comes out and makes a call...
Manik: You know the place right?... I am leaving so I'll be there in one hour
Manik comes to one of his secret houses...and finds his guest waiting with the car
Manik: You are early...
He goes to the main door...and gives voice code and passcode
Trilok: You know I am punctual...
The door opens and there is a caretaker inside...
Manik: Raju chacha... Please serve some juice...and also serve the lunch in half an hour...
Raju chacha: Ok baba
Manik: Come...have a sit...
Trilok: How are you doing
Manik: I was expecting her to blow out her anger to me...but instead she chose to forgive and move on
Trilok: Things did not turn up like your game plan
Manik: What is the fun if everything worked according to the plan...
Trilok: Fun... don't fool yourself...I know that you know it's not fun game anymore for... Come to your senses... I had to drag Nandini to psychologist 2 days back... after she had her hand dressed that she hurt herself
Manik looks devastated ...
Trilok: I have never seen her like that...
Manik: She took the blames to herself... for hurting her Ams... Oh God... (Manik stands up... )I am coming...
Manik goes and washes his face,,. He goes near the bar...picks up a wine bottle... but ...hesitates...he thinks... she does not drink... I should not also ease my pain... I have to see her...
He returns...
Manik: Why did not you inform me earlier...
Trilok: I had to take care of her...
Manik: You know I how much I hate the fact that you are the one with her... taking care of her... touching her... but I also wanted the best for her... and for us...
Trilok: I think we should reveal everything to her... that I am the villain of your love story... not you... you are only the hero...
Manik: No Pandit you wanted the best for her career... I can never thank you enough for the professional growths both of us endured ... the moral support you have been to her... You gave her love to music man...And me... I needed to keep her away from my darkest days... that darkest days I passed only to see my light happy again... to be the brightest star...
Trilok: She should have known... you are the one who fought secretly to make your mom reveal that Nandini was innocent ...you removed the false allegations...that you refer as darkest days? I was not the savior... you were... you have been... I did not let her to know because I wanted her not to look back before she reached success... I thought that she will move on... and when she comes back I'll tell her everything...
Manik: But I wanted to tell her myself and ask for forgiveness... I dreamed that as the best day of my life... I spent my darkest days to trap Nyonika and to be totally free...I found the truth about Soha...I also destroyed Khurana... People are scared to mess with me... my father depends on me now... but I lost my self on the process ...I lost my friends... Who guessed...but I always stayed with music... as she wished
Manik Sighs..
TK comes and puts a hand on her shoulder...
Manik: I wanted to show her that I have never left music as she wished...though I was alone she had been my inspiration... and thanks to you... you kept me informed about her successes...
Trilok: Nandini cannot live without hope for you...
Manik: Like I cannot...
Trilok: She is very unstable now... I don't think it is the right time to expose...she won't be able to handle we knew every thing and did not ler her know
Manik: No revealation... I put her away for so long... now she has to see the light in me... the maturity in me...I will be her strength... I will show her...how she is my strength... Thanks for taking my suggestion to organize the show...
Trilok: I am sorry that I did not inform you earlier... In spite of your so much effort, I thought she should choose her way... but it was unfair ...I took all the credits... but I'll not come between you again...
Manik: Please shut up... look at us ...we should not sound so friendly ... we are old enemies ...remember...
Trilok: I am lost...
Manik: No, you have been the sun to my star... I know how much you love her... And I definitely had killed you if had done something wrong... Now I will take it from here...
Trilok smiles
Trilok: I dream through her eyes Manik ... You are a music teacher now... You may understand one day... how great it is too see the confidence in your students eyes... you see yourself in those eyes... I love her... I love her like a piece of my own composition ... But I will be never able to give the love you can... Music is not enough ..she needs you
Manik: How is she now? Who is taking care of her? I wish I could see her...You are going to her home from here
Trilok: May be...
Manik: Then bring her to balcony or window
Trilok: She lives in 12th floor...
Manik sighs...
Trilok: She is fine now... She is... okay let me show you her...
TK video calls ...he keeps his video off...
A girl picks up on the opposite side its Tia
Tia: hello sir , we cant see you...
There is nandini and other students... some have instruments in hand... and foods also
Trilok: My bandwidth is low... how are you Nandini...
He gives the phone to Manik's hand...
Nandini: Unlike you I am having a lot of fun Sir... I know how to have good time with students...(She looks very happy and her natural smile is there)
Manik cannot but smile but with tears... He wishes he could take her into his arms...
Trilok: I am fine the way I am... Students... let her rest... take good care of her...and on't leave her alone...You got me?
Students together...: Yes Panditji...
Trilok: Bye Nandini...
Nandini: Bye... Tri..sorry Sir
Cuts...
Trilok: I could not let her be alone...
Manik: thanks for showing her happy face...keep her busy like that...
And none of them had mood for lunch...
Precap: too exhausted...but it will be the show in Nakshatra
