::GROUP FF-Ishq aur Junoon Filmy style::24Sep Pg41 - Page 7

I was busy on my cell phone, trying to contact one of the producers of my films while the media had surrounded me, my bodyguards and Bitoo. "RK, is it true that there has been a tiff between you and your London director?!"

Same old, Same old!! Rumours of fights and cold wars between my directors and me, me getting linked up to every co-star- this is maddening!! "Sir, please sit in your car quickly!" my bodyguard told me. I knew that if I would argue at the moment, other headline would be out in tomorrow's Bombay Times! So I did as I was told- something that RK isn't used to. No-one tells RK what to do and HOW to do- let it be sitting in the car slowly or quickly!! RK doesn't listen to anyone, the WORLD listens to RK! RK doesn't get "linked-up" with his co-starts, his co-starts got "linked-up" with HIM! It is not my problem!!

I looked out of the window and saw Bitoo answering the media. It took him a minute and he sat in the car. I started my Merc and we drove off to Bandra- my home.

Bittoo pleaded with RK-"But RK, itne short notice par kyaa ladhkiyan milengi?!"

I snapped back angrily-"Yeh RK kii film kii baat ho rahi hain, Bitoo!! Sab aayenge, kyunki aisa chance har din nahi milta hain. Now keep quiet and let me concentrate on the road!!"

Bitoo kept his mouth shut and I continued driving towards Kumar Mansion.

When we reached my mom came running, looking beautiful than ever!! "Rishubh, you reached!! How was the flight? No one troubled you na?! Were there any discomforts?!"

"Rishubh, beta come with me!! I haven't seen you in MONTHS!!" my mom started crying and I felt tears sting my eyes. Although in front of the world I was superstar RK, but it was ONLY in front of my mom that I was the Rishubh no one knew about.

"How did everything go??" mummy asked eagerly.

"Tumne pukaara aur hum chale aaye!!" I saw my dad standing in the room and I went to hug him.

I told him everything while Maa went to cook Paneer kii bhaaji and roti- my favourite food!!

That's when Bitoo came in the room. "Sorry to disturb RK, but Filmfare wale log tumhe invite karne aaye hain!! Award function do din mein hain." "

"Hello Mr. Kundra, we are here to take your interview s well as to invite you for the 57^th Filmfare Awards."
