Arjun is confused by all the media-persons surrounding/inside their house. As he enters, Natasha comes forward and explains that all the commotion relates to "Karu" being in town (bechara looks so confused ..REAL aur REEL names mein confusion ho gaya kya?😉😛😆)
Natasha calls out to Karan and requests two minutes. He abidingly joins her and Arjun. Natasha introduces the two; but too her horror, Karan mistakes Arjun as one of her brothers! To make matters worse, Arjun agrees with him, explaining that she is indeed like a sister to him.👍🏼 However, Natasha refuses point blank, declaring that they are in fact just "friends". Karan teases Natasha - saying that everyone is usually "Nuts" about her! (not our Arjun ..he's speeshal! )
As Arjun offers no insight, Natasha returns to the "official" introductions, explaining to Karan that Arjun's company is the main sponsor for the contest. Karan over-enthusiastically hugs Arjun, saying that he loves ALL his sponsors, after all they sign his cheques! 😆
Arjun attempts to return the 'compliment' by saying that he's read a lot about him in the media. Karan agrees that he is the 'famous and humble' one. Arjun questions his "humility" - however, Karan's humour is undeterred. (he is DEFINITELY a replica of Anil Kapoor's character in Taal - personality wise anyways)
Arjun brings the conversation towards the forthcoming competition. Natasha excuses herself. Arjun tells Karan that he also judged the same competition 6 months back, but rather than concentrating on the candidates talent, he did so on his own mood; and as a result he ignored a deserving voice and her efforts. Karan openly asks Arjun if he wants to "recommend" a winner; he's willing to take it all into consideration, after all he has the final say. Arjun recalls Arohi's words and declines to recommend anyone - but requests that he gives the title to the most deserving candidate. Karan jokingly accepts and much to Arjun's annoyance hugs him again! Arjun leaves. (I guess he couldn't risk a FURTHER hug! 😉😛)
Karan returns to Natasha; and as the media-persons leave, he asks of his room. Natasha explains that it's the one next to her - Karan teases Natasha to do away with the space and share the one room. (does he REALLY like her, or is he just POINTLESSLY flirting ..I REALLY hope its the former!)
Arjun is pacing around his room, frustrated at not having been able to do something for Arohi. Outside in the hallway, Karan and Natasha are arguing over her apple. Karan explains how he's not eaten anything since he's arrived, but she outright refuses to share it with him! (she obviously failed the test in etiquettes! *shakes head disappointedly*)
Arjun bumps into them as he leaves his room. Natasha asks him to join her and Karan for a late night swim; he declines. She notices him being tense, and so offers to give him a massage; he again declines. She then offers him her half-eaten apple, rather than go searching for some fruit elsewhere; he yet again declines - reminding her that he doesn't eat spoiled food. Karan is highly amused by this interplay.
As Arjun heads downstairs; Karan again attempts to have Natasha's half-eaten apple. However, she continues to refuse it - saying she doesn't share. He reminds her that she just offered it to Arjun; and points out that he's not even interested in her! 👏 Natasha is undeterred, claiming that what matters is that she likes him.
Arjun comes across Salil in the living area, getting a facial/massage/pedicure. Arjun is appalled by it all; and asks for the reason behind it. Salil explains that he's to marry in a few days time, and so needs to prepare, as he cannot appear out of sorts for his big day; how will he ever explain it to his kids in the years to come?! 😛 (he is JUST adorable!)
Arjun moves the conversation towards the singing competition; explaining that "she" is participating, so he'd like to buy her a dress - making her stand out amongst the rest of the candidates. Salil assumes its the aunty; and offers to get one of Natasha's friends to arrange something. Arjun worries about the measurements, but Salil reassures him, that they'll only need a few tents worth of cloth! 😆
The next morning - Arohi is standing in the registration-line, when Arjun appears and parks his car nearby. He sees her standing uncomfortably in the sun; and arranges for Dhondz and a few other servants to provide her a seat, umbrella and juice. She's shocked by the debacle. Nearby contestants begin to comment on her princess-status. Arohi notices Arjun in his car; and asks the lady next to her to keep her position - Dhondz interjects telling her that no-one will dare take her place! 😆
Arohi goes to speak with Arjun - he explains that he was attempting to provide her the "support" she asked. Frustrated, she tells him that this isn't the support she needs from him, in fact it's causing more damage than good! He agrees to call the aides back; ans as she leaves, she tells him that it was a cute gesture nonetheless. Arjun is elated. 😳
Arohi returns to the line and continues to stand in the sun; Arjun decides to get out of his car and also stand in the heat. (cho chweeeeeeet! 😳) He begins to sweat too; Dhondz comes up to him and suggest that he returns to the AC car, but Arjun refuses to do so, whilst wiping of sweat with a handkerchief. Arohi is doing the same with her duppatta. She sees Arjun; and comes towards him again - telling him to return to the car and allow her to complete this part of the struggle alone. Arjun agrees to let her be until the auditions.
The officials announce that all the Forms have finished; people begin to argue. The officials struggle to explain that there were limited places; which were served on a "first come, first served" basis. Arohi is heartbroken.
One of the officials heads to Arjun's car and explains that all the Forms have been handed out; although they still have some 300 potential candidates waiting. Arjun realises Arohi is amongst the 300 candidates. He instructs the employee to issue a further 100 Forms.
The officials make the further 100 Forms announcement. Arohi is thankful that Arjun didn't learn of the commotion and intervene. (uh oh!) She excitedly completes her Form and hands it in. As she returns a person stops her and explains that it's all down to her boss Arjun - had it not been for him, the further 100 Forms would not have been issued. Arohi is left speechless. As she continues, she overhears a group of girls talking about her (ie. Arjun's associate) and how it's assumed that she will win, particularly as Karan Singh is staying with Arjun; and also it's owing to his associate that Arjun issued a further 100 Forms. Arohi is livid!
PRECAP - Arjun is frantically looking for Arohi, as they are to call for her shortly. He eventually spots her sitting at a nearby bench, preparing to leave. He stops her, reminding her that her number is about to be called out - she turns around disgusted. She shouts at him for intervening/offering his help, when she had clearly asked him not too. (the question now is - will she/won't she do the audition?! - I personally think that she will; how else is Karan Singh to see her?!)
