Chapter-1:
A woman is jogging in the valley of a lavish society wearing a grey jumpsuit. Suddenly, her phone starts ringing. Running through the valley, she takes out the phone from her pocket and picks it up. The convo,
The person: Yes, Dr. Pathak.
Dr. Pathak: Ma'am, hospital mein aapke ek patient ne bohot hungama karke rakhkha hain. She is not taking medicine aur wo diet ke hisab se khaana bhi nehi kha rahi hain!
TP: (The woman sits down on a bench in the garden and wipes her sweat with a napkin) Dr. Pathak, mein kaun hu??
DP: Sorry, ma'am???
TP: I asked who am I?
DP: (Getting a little nervous) Aap Dr. Sonakshi Bose hain, ma'am!!
TP: Good. Now tell me, main aapke hospital ka kya hu?
DP: (In a nervous voice) You are the owner of the hospital, ma'am!
TP: Better!! Now, coming to your problem, patients ki bimari diagnose karke prescription dena mera kaam hain, aur hospital mein unka khayal rakhna nurse aur hospital ke ward boys ka kaam, aur kuch haadh tak app jaise interns ka. Now, if I ask you to handle board meetings and investors, kya aap wo kar paayenge?
DP: (In a scared tone) N..No, ma'am!
TP: Toh phir aap apna kaam, jo aapko aata hain, woh dhang se kijiye!! Aur agli baar mujhe phone karne se pehle, khudki internship ki baare mein zarur sochiyega. Kyuki Incepta Hospital mein kaam karne ka mauka kismat se milta hain. Aur waise bhi main kisika career barbaad nehi karna chahta. Good day, Dr. Pathak!!
Saying this she hangs up the phone without waiting for Pathak's reply.
This is Dr. Sonakshi Bose, a nutritionist and the owner of Incepta Hospital LTD in Mumbai. She has come from being a middle class doctor in delhi to a businesswoman in Mumbai now. As she is sitting on the bench looking at the sky, Elena, her cousin comes. Sonakshi without looking at her says, "Good morning, Elena". Elena sits on the bench and says, "Sona, phir se mujhe nehi uthaya tune??". Sonakshi says, "Elena, I got up at 5. Kaise uthati tujhe? And by the way, mein gayi thi tumhare flat mein, 2 baar bell bajaya par koi nehi aya! Maa ar baba toh ghumiye chilo bujhlam! But, tu bhi toh ghore bech ke so rahi thi!". Elena in a annoying tone says, "Achcha, bas! Aur sunane ki jarurat nehi. Tujhe pata hain, tu aagar hamare saath rehti toh ye saare problems nehi hote! Ek hi society mein rehti hain, toh akele rehene ki kya zaroorat hein? Teri puri family yaha hain, phir bhi akele rehti hain, kyu?" Sona in a disturbed tone says, "Elena, you know the reason very well!! I don't want to be a burden on anyone!! Aur waise bhi zindagi ne mujhe sikha diya hai, that I am alone. (With a smirk) Aur iss loneliness se aab mujhe pyaar hain!! Aur iss baar aapne pyar ko nafrat mein badaalne nehi dungi mein!!" Elena says, "Wah, toh madam ko loneliness se pyaar hain, kya baat hain!! (After thinking for a while) And, by the way, You got up at 5? Really, tu phir se nehi soyi?". Sonakshi getting up from the bench says, "I don't have time for all this, Elena! Mujhe hospital bhi jaana hain! Ami already late hoye giyechi". Hearing this Elena gets up and says, "Aur kitna avoid karegi?". Sona looks at her with a sad smirk and says, "Tahole ki korbo? Avoid kare bina aur kar bhi kya sakti hun? Un yaado mein phir se nehi kho sakti mein khudko!!". Saying this Sona walks away leaving Elena behind. She enters in a building slowly sipping the protein shake in her hand. Elena looks on with disappointment.
"Asha, Asha, Ashaaa!!" shouts Mr. Bijoy Bose, Sonakshi's father in an angry voice. Asha, Sonakshi's mother hurriedly comes from the kitchen saying, "Arey, baba, arahi hun! Ki hoyeche, Bijoy? Chilla kyu rahe ho?". Bijoy glares at Asha and then at the sofa. Asha looks there and asks, "Ki holo? Batao na kya hua?". Bijoy fumes and says, "Ki holo?? Tum puch rahi ho kya hua? Asha, dekho, tumhare iss nalayak bete ne kya kiya!" By the time, Saurav, who was sleeping peacefully on the couch, wakes up and says, "Baba, subhe subhe chilla kyu rahe ho?". Bijoy fumes seeing his son yawn and says, "Dekha, dekha??". Asha confusingly says, "Kya, Bijoy? Kuch bhi toh nehi kiya Saurav ne?" Bijoy gets more annoyed and says, "Kuch nehi kiya?" He takes out a crimped book from under Saurav and showing it says, "Ye dekho, ye dekho, iss ne kya kiya? Aapne overloaded body se iss ne mera book kharap kar diya? Football kahika!" Asha getting annoyed says, "Offo, mujhe kuch nehi paata! Tum dono ka problem hain, khud solve karo!!" saying this, Asha goes away while Bijoy is still looking angrily at Saurav.
Asha goes back to the kitchen where a girl is doing kitchen chores, she asks, "Phir se kuch kar diya Saurav ne, maa?". Asha says, "Nehi, Anu, Bijoy esei chillaye ja rahe hain!". The girl is Ananya Saurav Bose, Saurav's wife, a fashion designer by profession. She looks at Asha with a smile and says, "In dono ka kuch nehi ho sakta!!". Asha nods and says, "Kuch bhi nehi!!". Saying this, both looks at each other and bursts into laughter.
Elena comes in home and Asha calls out to her from the dining table, "Elena, breakfast lag geya hain, aa ja". Elena shouts from the door, "Ashchi, mashi!". She comes to the dining table and seeing Bijoy and Saurav's face says, "Aab kya hua, mesho? Aap dono aise muh latke ke kyu betho ho?". Bijoy and Saurav looks away from each other. Asha and Anu comes and says, "Aur kya hona hain? Waise, Elena tu Sona se mili? Shayad wo subah ayi thi! Maine bell sunah tha!". Elena sitting down says, "Ha, mashi, wo ayi thi". Asha in sad tone says, "Iss ladki ko mein kaise samjhau ki woh akele rehte rehte aur bhi depressed ho rahi hain! 7 saal ho geye uss baat ko! Kab tak aise akale rehke khudko torture karegi? Kehna keliye toh she has moved on, par...!!". Asha sighs and Elena comforting her says, "Don't worry, mashi. Hum sab milke usse aaj nehi toh kaal lekar hi ayenge. But, you have to be strong!!". Asha nods. Bijoy remembering that incident says, "Meri shona kitni badaal gayi uss din ke baad! Mein uss insaan ko kabhi maaf nehi karunga jiske liye Shona humse dur hain! Never!!"
