::PART 1::There's no business like Show business::
Lights, Camera and Action. Flash!!! Flash!!! Click, click!!! A crowd gathering around them in a swarm. Her heart was beating ever so fast, palpitations then a range of unfamiliar emotions were running through her. She remained cowering behind her sister, the ever confident Trish a star reaching for the heavens waving to her admirers then on to the red carpet. Like her sisters shadown she trailed behind her covering her face all the way up the stairs looking ordianry compared to her sister's sexy gown. Then she'd reached her destination tripping over her sisters train and a scream was about to erupt when a handsome stranger caught her in his arms staring with those intense starry eyes. These eyes haunted her, teased her, joked with her, flirted with her, exited her and had this intoxity that made her feel dizzy. He had a mask on but her heart recognized him. He was her salvation, her destroyer, her maker, her muse, her idol, her love, her enemy, he was everything to her and at the same time nothing to her. The stranger lead her directly into a dark room across a long path with a light shining at then and on to the stage where she was now transformed into a glam doll. He whispered into her ear offering a few words of encouragement and then pushed her towards the mike and left her stranded.
The smirk plastered on his face was both chiding her yet gave her courage to speak but as soon as he started to leave she was wide awake in cold sweats. She touched her face and then frowned at her unfinished dream disappeared now replaced with her reality. This dream was not hers but Trush's. Madhu took off her duvet and slid out of bed stretching her arms. Shame she never saw hhis face. Dreams were so funny she thought with her lips curled into a smile.
Paddy had prepared the girls breakfast and called them down-Girls U are both running late.
Madhu was sat down first after smelling the milky goodness before her. She dove right in tasting it complimenting in how it tasted-This is good Mum. I gotta go now. Love U bye.
Trish took a mouthful of the creamy breakfast served up by her Mother and started to head out with Roma-Mum i have a busy day before me i can't stop.
With this both girls were off. Madhu was in College while Trish went off with Roma for auditions lined up for her. So far she had gotten at least 20 rejections but she would never give up her dreams for anyone. Acting was her passion and making the big time was her obsession. This and dating a hot Superstar like RK. What she would do for him was beyond any comprehension because he was her life. The auto took them to some low budget studio where she had pinned her dreams on getting her debut with some hot guy. The man she came to meet was a burly old man, dark in complexion and someone who was hooked on cigars. Trish could smell him from a mile off. Roma patted her back encouraging her to speak first and shake the man's hand.
Roma reluctantly extended her arm out-I am Trish's agent. We are here for a screen test.
Anu Krishnam checked Trish up and down sizing this new girl from head to toe-U look pretty enough but nothing a little make-up can't solve, You're tall, curvy check but U lack in something! Does she speak or is she dumb?
Trish eyeballed the director then opened her mouth-Listen U fat B grade film maker, how dare U insult Trish? Have U even seen a girl like me? Ever came up with talent like mine? Wait until i hit the big time then i will prove U wrong. U think U know what beauty is? They don't make girls like me.
Anu Krishnam chuckled at such arrogance, the attitude, your eyes show fire when you're angry. (Masks what he is thinking with his poker face) I can give U a test run bt it will have to be in private.
Roma knew where this was leading-My girl won't be doing anything in private U jerk. Stick your film where the sun don't shine. (She drags Trish out) We will not compromise with our dignity. U my girl are going to be a star but this creep knows nothing of raw talent. We'll get better offers i swear. We have to bide our time. Patience is needed, a little luck, a good script and a Happening Superstar and your dreams will be soon a reality.
Trish and Roma now opted to target Directors looking for fresh faces to cast opposite their Hero's. Attending a few parties is what they needed in order to get them started.
Madhu overheard a few girls gossiping about RK's new movie, how hot he looked, they loved his film and wanted to see it again. Madhu felt for her sister then. Trish would have jumped at the opportunity to see his film. One of the girls mentioned something about an open audition. Ok this might not interest her but it would appeal to Trish.
Madhu noted down the location this was being held at for her sister. This maybe a pipe dream but this was important to her sister and Madhu didn't want to crush her ambitious dreams to become the top Heroine of all time. Madhu focussed back on her sessions at college.
After college Madhu went on to doing some shopping for her Mum from the bazaar. She bartered with the stall owners about a bargain on vegetables like okra, aubergines, potatoes, chillies. Madhu headed straight home and placed all of her shopping down entering the kitchen to help her mother do some cooking.
Paddy protested Madhu get out and rest for a little while-I can do this Madhu. U go and freshen up or take a little break.
Madhu insisted she help her Mum giving her a little sqeeze-I want to help out. Trust me i'm nnot tired yet. I have enough energy to do more than just cook. Helping my Mum out isn't a chore. I like cooking. I like spending time with my Mum.
Paady stroked her daughters cheek-Madhu i just want my daughters to be happy. I want U to concentrate fully on your studies and not worry about the household chores.
Madhu smiled softly-I know Mum but i am stubborn. Now let me do help U out or i will have to make sure i get U out of the kitchen so i can do it all by myself.
Paddy knew when Madhu was serious-Ok i won't push U any further.
Together both Mother and daughter cut all of the vegetables. Madhu made the masala while her Mother cut the meat into cubes and took turn stirring the dishes. After a few hours the curry was ready. They both set the table and waited for Trish and Roma to make their entry.
