Chapter 6
On the first day of his job, Nupur called Samrat to her office. As they discussed the future plans. Samrat told Nupur that
she was the ruling queen of Bollywood but she needed a change. Nupur looked at Samrat and said , "I am at the top, why will
I change "
But 6 months down the line Nupur changed her thought process. Nupur changed, her personal life changed. She now had
friends.They were not the reguar bollywood mongers but regular people with regular lives. Diya an interior decorator. A
diva. Uday her brother, a painter and butt of all jokes but a sweetheart, Benji an engineer, the chirpiest dude in the town
and then there was this sweet bispectecled girl. She was a doctor and was Sammy's gf. A doctor by proffession and Dia and
Uday's cousin. Her name stuck a chord with Nupur. Her name was "Gunjan". Looking at her Nupur always felt had her sister
survived she would have been similar to Gunjan. At first Gunjan maintained distance but soon they became pretty close.
Somehow loooking at Gunjan Nupur felt that she wanted to tell something to her but just didnot know how to.
And then it was her best friend Samrat. Yes he was her best friend. He was the one who changed Nupur's world.With his smile
and charm he brought back life in the person burried within Nupur. Nupur was happy and Ratna knew it.Nupur's happiness
translated in her work. Now people didnot love her on the 70 mm screen only they connected to her on a personal level.
Often her pictures were splashed in top magazines with her gang of friends. Her genuine expressions attracted a lot of
attention.
It was Sam's birthday, Nupur was very excited. The gang had planned a special birthday party. Gunjan was at the helm of the
affairs but Nupur planned something special on her own. She wrote to the lyrisist of Samrat's favorite song and retrieved
the original manuscript of the song. The paper was old and fragile but the feelings were true. Nupur read the lyrics on the
paper and smiled. The lyrics read "Yaaro dosti hi toh zindagi hai, ye nah ho toh kya fir bolo zindagi hai". She read the
sentence again and a smile appeared on her face. She got the paper beautifully framed and wrapped it. She wanted to gift it
to Samrat at the beginning of the party but then rejected the idea and planned to gift it to him when the party got over in
presence of only the close ones.
Nupur hid the gift in Sammy's store room and entered the party. The party was fun but suddenly there was a beep on Nupur's
phone. She checked the mail. Her worst dream had come true. Mayank had done it and this time she couldnot take it. Nuur
fainted on the floor. Sammy and Gunjan rushed towards Nupur. They took her inside the bedroom. Gunjan being a doctor
controlld the situation well. Nupur gainned her senses. She found Gunjan next to her.
Gunjan: "Are you fine now?"
Nupur: "He knows it. He will destroy me."
Gunjan: "What happened? I donot understand."
Nupur: "Mayank he sent me a picture of my childhood, with my mother."
Gunjan: "So sweet! why are u so tensed then."
Nupur: "Where is my mobile?"
Gunjan: "Here"
Nupur :"Mayank forwarded this to me."
Gunjan: "That is not Ratna aunty"
Nupur:"I know. That is my mother and I killed her."
Gunjan was shocked!
