PART 14


RE-CAP

Bauji-Beeji's 43rd wedding anniversary party is a success. Kasturi and Robbie….. completely in love, but fairly unaware of each other's feelings, spend some time together. Kaushalya watches them and suspects that Kasturi is in love with Robbie. Robbie, along with Purushottams's help, manages to get a handful of music production house executives to attend his annual college festival, Crossroads. Amongst them is Rushaan Kapoor, an executive with a music production company in Mumbai. Robbie and Ariv discuss their future career plans and Robbie brings up the need to go to Mumbai for career prospects. Ariv is aware of Robbie's love for Kasturi and urges him to confess his feelings to Kasturi.

Now………….


………………………………………………………



Crossroads is going on in full swing.

Rushaan Kapoor, a fairly young chap, has arrived in Delhi. He is staying at The Maurya Sheraton, one of the well known high end hotels in Delhi; more so for the 'Bukhara', the ever famous Tandoor restaurant at the Maurya[1].

He meets Purushottam before hand at the Sabharwal Group of Companies' office. Purushottam and Rushaan discuss the business at hand. Very subtlely, Purushottam brings up Robbie and Ariv's proposed plans and Rushaan shows an enthusiasm to meet them.

The day of Robbie and Ariv's performance, they are both quite excited. In the afternoon they meet Rushaan Kapoor and a few of Purushottam's Delhi based contacts. Being the relatively younger one in the crowd, Rushaan is more comfortable speaking to Robbie and Ariv. Conversation floats between the music industry, to state of Indian cricket, to Rushaan's earlier US trip, to cost of living in Delhi vs Mumbai etc.


................................

The lunch goes off amiably….at of course the Bukhara. In true Delhi style, Purushottam showcases great hospitality and Rushaan is overwhelmed almost loaded!! by the attention and request to eat food.

Robbie whispers to Ariv, "Inko itna khila rahe hain Dad ki shaam tak jage rahenge ki nahi yehi doubt hai".

Ariv: Wahi to!!. Chal ek baat to taiy hai. Aaj ke baad yeh aadmi hamein kabhi nahi bhulega. Gaane ke liye na sahi….indigestion ke wajah se zaroor.

Almost as though he overheard them, Rushaan gives up a plea that "Bas ab aur nahi, Sabharwalji". As the lunch is about to end, Rushaan asks Robbie "Idhar 'cutting' kahaan milega".

Both Robbie and Ariv exchange a look as to yeh kya cheez hai??....Not to miss out Purushottam replies, "Kiska cutting ji….abhi to inka album cut hona baaki hai"

Rushaan bursts out laughing: Sorry, meri galti. Album wala cutting nahi, I meant chai ka cutting….sorry I mean raste wali chai….Mumbai style.



All burst out laughing and Purushottam shakes his head realizing what a boo boo he made!! But this breaks the ice even further. Rushaan Kapoor is very informal and easy going…….a little crisp and matter of fact in his reactions, but makes up for it by his informal attitude.

Robbie and Ariv take an instant liking to him. The lunch is over and upon his invitation (yipeeee!!) Robbie and Ariv, plod along with Rushaan to have 'cutting'. They take him to a roadside dhaba in Delhi. And over chai….they do bond…this time over who is a better cricketing captain, Dravid or Ganguly….. At the end of the 'chai cutting' session, Rushaan Kapoor promises to attend the part when Robbie and Ariv perform. Robbie is to give him an hour's heads up so that he can make his way to the college.


…………………………………………………………

Its late afternoon and Robbie-Ariv are about to leave for college for the final rehearsals followed by the actual song extravaganza. They have to pick up Kasturi, who is going along with them. She is waiting for them by the Chawla bungalow gate and as soon as they meet her, she wishes both of them warmly…...........Ariv, suddenly remembers he has to answer nature's call!! and makes up an excuse to go to the bathroom ….so that Robbie and Kasturi get a private moment!


Kasturi: How was the lunch?
Robbie: Quite good…..Rushaan Kapoor is a nice guy.
Kasturi: Dekhna the song will be good and these guys will be impressed.
Robbie smiles: Hopefully……..

Kasturi: Excited ho?
Robbie: Yup….and also nostalgic… because this is the last Crossroads we will perform at…
(Kash…..this time is never going to come back in our lives, so lets make the most of it).

Kasturi: Hmmn….I too felt a little bad since yesterday….that this will be the last time I will see you at Crossroads….as a student…But then I am also happy…because from now on Robbie Sabharwal will be performing as a professional singer….Hainaa ….Jai Mata Di..

Robbie, touched by her motivating talk: Jai Mata Di….
And Kasturi hugs Robbie
(Robs, raaste mil jaayenge….just give it your best).

Ariv arrives and politely coughs………and the three leave for college.



……………………………………………………..........

The Crossroads song extravaganza is in full swing. An hour and a half before their act Robbie calls up Rushaan Kapoor and all the other pass holders, to give them a heads up about the time of Ariv and his act……

And yesssss..….Rushaan Kapoor and another Delhi based distributor do arrive….They are respectfully welcomed by Robbie-Ariv and the lead organiser and shown their seats. The other two pass holders do not turn up. But then what can be done….Something is better than nothing.


……………………………………………….

It is time for Robbie and Ariv's performance.

Robbie and Ariv reach the centre of the stage; the crowd enthusiastically cheers them. Robbie is wearing a pair of dark metallic grey shaded jeans, a blue shirt and a deep dark blue denim vest….Ariv is in a same jeans-shirt-vest combo; black jeans and olive green shirt and vest.

Robbie first scans the crowd for Kasturi and locates her. He gives her a 'greeting' akin to a salaam'. She enthusiastically waves back.


Robbie then picks up the mike and says ……"Friends, SRCCians, dear profs and Girlssss….

Cheers or 'RO-AR we love you', cat calls and screams of 'Robbie Bhaiyya' ripple through the crowd

Robbie: Oh how forgetful of me….Hello Boys and their sisters…

A ripple of laughter again.


Robbie: This is our last performance in this college…Aaj ke baad aapko satane ka mauka miley na miley, RO-AR ki ..'roar' sunnne ke liye aapko tickets leni padegi..…..I know, I know you all will miss us, especially you girlss ….(..laughter and wolf whistles ripple through the crowd)……….Seriously…….Our batch leaves with a lot of happy memories…Who knows what is in store for each one of us and where life will lead us (at this point Robbie looks at Kasturi) ….What we know is that all of us have hopes in our hearts and dreams in our eyes. We hope our paths cross again …..Until then this is for you …(once again he looks in Kasturi's direction)….

The crowd cheers them and picks up a steady clap. ….Robbie and Ariv wave at a few known places in the crowd.

As the opening bars of the song start ……..Robbie begins…….thinking about all the cherished moments in SRCC….and about Kasturi


…………………………………………


Paaaagal manavaaa…aaaaaaa
Kaise bhaaaaage reeeee ……..paagal manavaaaa

Tabad tod …naach luu…. naach luu…. naach luu
Naaaaaach luuuu…. reeeeeee


The music beat picks up and Ariv and Robbie sing the first words "O Oho"…encouraging the crowd to pick it up. The crowd picks up the beat and the words ……


O Oho….. O oho ......O Oho .....O oho ......
O Oho ......O oho .......O Oho ......O oho


Robbie……taking over and at his prolific best…..


O ho
Chappan tare tod naacch lu ……suraj chanda mod naach lu…….ab to tabad tod nach lu
Mein to banjara reee


O Oho ……
Oh ho…… Chappan tare tod naacch lu ……suraj chanda mod naach lu….....ab to tabad tod nach lu
Mein to banjara re


Ban ke awaaara…..mein kis mele mein pahunch gaya hoon……
Koi to roko, kho jau re
Masti ka maara.... mein kya bolu......yeh kisey kahun mein
Dil ka mein haraa ho jau re

Dil haraa re ... .dil haraa haraa .... dil haraa haraa .....
mein haraa
O yaara re .....dil hara haraa .....dil hara haraa .....
mein yaara
Dil haraaaaaa reee ....dil hara hara ....dil hara hara .....
mein yaaaaaraaaa



The song beings to a fantastic start; the crowd is enjoying every minute of it. Kasturi cannot but feel elated and proud for Robbie…..Seeing him perform…seeing him being such a darling of the crowd…makes her very euphoric.

At the same time, she is very emotional and nostalgic that a beautiful part of their lives ….their carefree school and college life….is about to end. A life which was just them….a life they constantly shared together, a life that defined them ….. is soon about to end…..



Aaj akele...... .har ek halat se aage........zubani baat se aage .....chala aaya
Har taare ki ….aankh mein aanken dalein……chandni raat se aage .......chala aaya


Kisko bolun mein ......kaise bolun mein…..koi mujhko bata ke jaa
Koi to batajaa re

Dil haraa re ... .dil haraa haraa .... dil haraa haraa .....
mein haraa
O yaara re ......dil hara haraa .....dil hara haraa .....
mein yaara
Dil haraaaaaa reee ....dil hara hara ....dil hara hara .....
mein haaaaaraaaa



Robbie steps forward and encourages an already excited crowd by doing a little jig….…And as he glances towards Rushaan, he realises that Rushaan Kapoor ….Yessss Rushaan is also cheering and seems to be enjoying the song..



O oho ….O oho ….. O oho ….O oho…… O oho ….O oho

Hooooo
Rasta bola ….. arey ki thak jayega ….. beech mein ruk jayega …. ..abhi ruk jaa
Arey aage jaake…....garaj ke aandhi hogi….....garaj ke toofan hoga….. .. abhi ruk jaa


Mein to deewana….. bola aajanaa ......dono sang mein chalenge haan
Aa bhi ja tu aa jaa re

Dil haraa re ... .dil haraa haraa .... dil haraa haraa .....
mein haraa
O yaara re .....dil hara haraa .....dil hara haraa .....
mein yaara
Dil haraaaaaa reee ....dil hara hara ....dil hara hara .....
mein yaaaraaaa


Tabad tod naaaaacch luu



The music now picks up a vociferous crescendo[2].......And the crowd practically goes beserk


Dil haraaaaaaaaa
... .dil haraa reee .... dil hara reee .....mein haraa
O yaara re .....dil haraa haraa .....dil hara haraa .....mein yaara
Dil haraaaaaa reee ....dil hara ree ....dil hara reee .....mein yaaaaaraaaa



The crowd is completely grooving to the beat. Whilst singing the last bars of the song, Robbie and Ariv cover the whole stage cheering the crowd in return….….. Robbie comes over to the side where Kasturi is standing …..and as the penultimate bars of the song gives way to the last bar……Robbie takes off his vest!! and throws it at Kasturi…….

She first excitedly picks it up…..only to be completely embarrassed later on as the crowd around her cheers lustily.



………………………………………………..

As the excited screams, cheers and peals of slogans "RO-AR we loveeee you!!!!!" end….Gayu, a close friend, asks Kasturi …

Gayu smilingly: Kash, come on ….out with it …… did you tell him??
Kasturi is flabbergasted and replies "Who"
Gayu: "Who!!…Robbie, of course"

Kasturi, now self-conscious: What?
Gayu: That you love him
Kasturi, shocked and a second late in responding: What rubbish!!! …Tum bhi na Gayu…you speak anything.
Gayu: Oh come on Kash!! ….you think I don't know……
Kasturi: What!!!....there is nothing of that sort …Robbie and I are just very close childhood se friends…..

Gayu, matter of factly: Oh really….dream on then….tum nahi batana chahti to mein force nahin karungi…..
Kasturi now trying to cover up: Gayu, why should I deny? ….aisa kuch bhi nahi hai
Gayu: Ohh Reallyyy!!!!....Mirror mein jaake apni shakal dekh le Kash…..it has the stamp Robbie Sabharwal writ large over it…….



……………………………………………

Rushaan Kapoor has liked it….and is quite impressed. He showers a lot of appreciation on Robbie-Ariv and ……asks for their sample voice track!! Robbie, taking on a most casual expression, replies that they will come over personally to the Maurya and give the track.

The Delhi based distributor goes one step ahead. He tells them he will send someone over to Purushottam's office, first thing tomorrow morning to collect it.

After they leave Robbie and Ariv exult and punch victory whoopies in the air. Robbie immediately wants to meet Kasturi and tell her this; …but one equally important thing needs to be done. He calls up Purushottam and gives a lowdown on what happened. Purushottam is happy.


………………………………………………

Here, Kasturi is still recovering from the interaction with Gayu. How in the world did Gayu pick this up?…Oh Lord!!!....Am I being that desperate in my actions?…Am I coming across as a love struck person?…My pain, my anxiety, my emotions…. are they so visible?.....How many people know this…..Sanjana, Nisha, Ashwini, Kulraaj….Ariv??.....Maa-Papa…Dad-Mom……and what about him ….does he know!!!

Just then, Robbie and Ariv catch up with her and Ariv gushes excitedly: Kashhhh!!!, bata kaise lagaa…Rushaan Kapoor and the Distributor both liked it…yipeeeeeeee!!!!!

Robbie, equally excited twirls Kasturi around: Aur unhoney khud hamari track maang li…mission successful Kashhh…Oh am so thrilled…chal isi baat par ek chai cutting ho jai!!!

Ariv and Robbie burst out laughing and exchange a high five.


Kasturi tries to respond equally enthusiastically. In fact, she is quite genuine in her reactions, …in her appreciation of them….But her earlier thought process is weighing on her,…….and Robbie catches on to the fact that something is amiss.


…………………………………………….

As a few other people join them, Robbie deftly leads Kasturi away from the group and: Kashh…?
Kasturi, trying to be very cheerful: Yo Rockstar!

Robbie, his voice dipping a tone lower: Kya hua?
(Tum khush nahi lag rahi)
Kasturi, handing over the vest: kya....kuch bhi to nahi
(Do you know??)

Robbie: Jhoot bolna tumhe kabhi aaya nahi hai.....whats the matter?
(Did you not like the song?.....or is there something else)
Kasturi : Nahi baba kuch nahi hua hai
(Kuch bhi to thik nahi hai.....)


Robbie: Phir jhoot... out with it.
(Why do I have this nagging feeling nowadays that you are keeping something away from me?)
Kasturi: Nothing yaar…am just not feeling too well.
(Sab ko pata chalne laga hai ……..do you know!!!)

Robbie: Aisa kya hai ke mujhe bhi nahi bataogi!
(For the first time why do I feel that there is something really serious that I don't know)
Kasturi: Tch, aisey hi Robs ...I realised its our last Crossroads and that I will miss this festival, I will miss college…I will miss you….I mean watching you perform here.
(Do you know it Robbie…do you??)


Robbie, thinking this is the reason and realizing that he too will miss her: Oh yes…..
Robbie just pats her head……and puts his left arm around her shoulder
(I will miss you too Jaan …Miss sometimes screaming at you for not being ready in time for college …Miss travelling with you to college….Miss catching up with you at times in the canteen…telling you the latest gossip….Miss chatting endlessly with you and our friends sitting in these college corridors ….Miss preparing notes for you….I will miss everything….I will miss my maximum right over your time………..)


……………………………………………………

Robbie holds her hand: Chalo tumhe ek baat dikhata hun.
Robbie leads her to the first floor and a corridor from which they can observe the crowd below.

When they reach there…


Kasturi: What about?
Robbie: Neche dekh rahi ho….in saare students logon ko….Unhe support karne aaye close ones ko. ..Yahaan par har ek ke dil aur dimaag mein kitni umange hongi…kitne sapne….Har ek ne apne liye kuch na kuch soch rakha hoga…ya phir jald hi sochenge.....….Humnein jo bachpan se khwaab dekhe hain…unhe pura karne ka waqt ab aagaya hai….Aaj humaare peeche yeh sab choota jaa raha hai…Pata nahi aage kitni takleefe, kitna sangharsh likha hain….Kal jab hum is mod ko peeche mud kar dekhenge to hamari yehi saari yaadein hamare liye ek thandi chaanv hogi…..To haan…dukh ho raha hai……dukh hoga…..Par aane waale bichadte hue waqt ke baare mein soch kar, …aaj kyun bigaade. Kyun naa hum in lamhon ko poori tarah se jeele…har ek lamha…har ek anubhav …hare ek pal ko dil mein sanjoye.


Kasturi is intently looking at him
Robbie: You know jab hum chote the aur tum school jaane ke liye roti rehti thi tab Bauji hamein har school waale din ek ek mini Cadbury dete they….Mom aur Maa ke daant ke bawajood (they both break into a smile)….To ham ek Cadbury khaa lete they aur ek teri room mein ek sandook mein rakhte …Phir weekend wale dinon mein jab Bauji se Cadbury nahi milti tab hum us sandook mein se cadbury nikal kar khaa lete….Aur hamare Cadbury ke khazaane ko dekhke kitne khush ho jaate.

Kasturi remembers these incidents and smiles agreeably
Robbie pats her head again and says: to samjho kuch aise hi…Cadbury ko in lamhon se replace karo…hmmn


Kasturi is tearful: What would I have done without you?
(Robbie, maine pechle janam mein koi bada punya kamaya hoga….ke is janam mein tum mile ho)
Robbie holding her face in his hands: shayad wohi …which I would have done without you….
(You will never find yourself without me jaan…..thats a promise….chahe kuch bhi ho jaaye)


Robbie, winking at her, and moving his left palm through his hair: Aur waise bhi…..ab tum mujhe thik tarah se dekh lo…..phir jab mein rockstar ban jaunga to mujhe dekhne ke liye tumhe ticket leni padegi.

Kasturi breaks into a giggle and says: oh yeahh…circus ke liye aaj bhi tickets lene padte hain!!
Robbie: Leh lo aur suno….aise dost hain to dushman kyun chahiye


…………………………………………………………….

Ariv arrives looking for Robbie, as someone in the organizing committee wants to meet him. Ariv doesn't want to disturb them…but he has to

Ariv: Tum dono yahaan ho, …neeche itna dhamaka ho gaya!
Kasturi: What happened?
Ariv: Stage par se Prof Saksena ka blazer gir gaya….and such commotion followed I tell you.

Robbie: Isme commotion wali kya baat hai.
Ariv, seriously ..: Blazer ke andar Prof Saksena the……!!!
Ariv and Robbie burst out laughing….much to the shocked expression of Kasturi.
Kasturi: Beysharmo!!….Prof Saksena gir gaye aur tumm do hans rahe ho!!


And the mazak masti continues….Back in better spirits ….they all once again get involved in the excitement and enthusiastic celebration below.


………………………………………….

Late in the night Robbie leaves Kasturi home. Kasturi begins to get out of the car, almost pulling the door handle and then turns around.

Kasturi, very sweetly but assertively: Robs dekhna today will be the performance that gets you the place you want…..something tells me this will work
Robbie, managing a smile: Hmmn...I hope so too
Kasturi: Tumne Ariv ko Mumbai ke baare mein bataya?
Robbie, nodding his head: Yes I did...

Kasturi: To phir kya kahaa usne?
Robbie: He seemed ok....he understands we need to go there if we have to make a mark
Kasturi: Aur Dad-Mom….unhe kab bataoge

Silence



Kasturi, thinking: Dad ko batana to padega hi naa...
Robbie, leaning tiredly against the seat head-rest: Kuch haath mein ho to bata sakunga Kash…Waise hi Dad itna kuch kar chuke hain…Mumbai mein as rank strugglers to nahi jaa sakte na....Its an expensive place....And who knows yaar kitni wait aur likhi hain…Ab Dad ko aur takleef dene ka mun nahi karta


Kasturi, sensitively: Robs jo tumne yahaan kiya hai wohi wahan jaake karoge to kuch baat ban sakti hain....You know meeting people from the industry, leaving your track with them…..And hopefully this Rushaan guy does some thing.

Robbie: Kash, Delhi aur Mumbai mein difference hain...We knew at least some people here ..There we are just faces in a jungle of people. Mujhe struggle karne se aitraaz ya dar nahi hain…I can slog it out, …go through the grind…. tolerate a no and the insults till I reach my goal…But meeting people, giving our tracks, waiting and in doing that maintaining an existence in Mumbai will require money….We have already spent so much….We are not some big-shot industrialists nor do we have immesurable wealth….and even if there was…..there has to be some accountability right.


Kasturi, thinking: Tum wahaan par kuch job kar sakte ho
Robbie: Woh kar sakta hun….but you that just as a graduate I will not get a top rung job….And then how do we practice….Yeh saare instruments kahaan lekar phirenge….Mumbai mein yeh kothi kaa taam jhaam to nahi hoga.



……………………………………

Kasturi agreeing: Hmmn….
Then very cutely she says: Mere paas dher saare paise hote naa to mein saaaaaarey tumhe deti
Robbie sighing and smiling, looking at the wheel:….aur
Kasturi: aur sab ko force karti ki tumhara track sune

Robbie, breaks into a smile and turns sideways to look at her. The lamp affixed on the Chawla gate is throwing streams of light all around….one of them falling through the windscreen of Robbie's car….Kasturi looks so innocent and pretty in the light…And Robbie gets conscious of her looks and childlike innocent demeanor.


Robbie, his voice naturally dipping a tone lower…:…Aur …
Kasturi, dreaming away: Aur sab kuch chod chad ke tumhari secretary ban jaati….
Robbie, getting overcome by his feelings for her: Aur
Kasturi: Aur tumhara khayal rakhti

Robbie his gaze unwavering: Aur
Kasturi: Aur tum jo chaho who karti
Robbie, the voice now telling a lot of things, only if Kasturi could get it: Aur


Kasturi, irritated: Yeh aur aurrr kya laga rakha hai…..aur kuch nahi
Whilst saying that Kasturi looks at him and realizes that Robbie is looking at her. As she wonders what could make him so serious, she asks: Kya hua Robs?


Robbie realizes she is looking at him and thinks "arey marwaega Robbie!!!"….and with difficulty says as coolly as he could: Nothing…chal its late. See ya ....good night
Kasturi: Okies gnite Robs….

As she walks up the path to the door and rings on the door bell, she turns around and waves back at him. Robbie who is looking at her extends his hand and waves back
(Mar gaya Robbie…chal, ab apne dil ko sambhal)


………………………………………………..

The next day the music tracks are given out…….

And once again the wait begins………..

............................................................ ........

Kaushalya tries to observe and analyse Kasturi's reactions. But since everything else seems so normal,…..Kaushalya begins to believe that what she saw that day was just friendly banter…nothing else….Even then she is more alert to Kasturi's reactions than before.


……………………………………………….

2004 arrives and steadily begins to pass by…..Despite the initial praises and eagerness, no constructive news is received from either Rushaan Kapoor or the Delhi distributor. Whenever contacted, they just give a stock answer that they are looking into it.

Slowly, with each passing week of no real development, the gloom once again returns….. Everyone around them tries to be as nonchalant as possible about the no news factor and are sensitive towards Robbie and Ariv.

But the smooth veneer of "don't worry,…you will soon hear news, ….its just a matter of time" begins to crack.

And Robbie and Ariv, feel the heat……

End of Part 14



End Notes:

A] Song

Dil Haara Re

[The song is from the original soundtrack of the Hindi movie Tashan and is sung by Sukhwinder…..As usual Sukhiji is amazing. …It is quite a tough song to sing. Vishal-Shekar, the music directors, have done an awesome job with it….Very peppy, very impactful, yet very meaningful. ……. The pauses in the song are denoted by the spaces in the lines]

Hey JW 😃

SO RO-Ar have done their last performance at college....it was good the Mr Rushaan seemed to enjoy their music and take a liking towards them....but what happened in the end.....he didnt get back to them so the struggle continues then...........

Just like Ariv noticed Ros feelings.....Kasturis friend has noticed too 😉....lets see how long these feelings are avoided and hidden away 😉 😆

Loved the talk between RoKa about childhood days and memories......its very sweet 😳 they really do share a deep bond 😳 and also the talk in the car.....it shows how they share everything

As always JW loved all the dialogues, jokes and RoKa thoughts.....all very well written 👏 👏 👏

Liked how Ariv told them about the professor falling off the stage 😆 😆 😆

Looking forward to the next parts 😃

Kay

hey JW, nice part eh., i really loved that car scene. i could just imagine robbie and kasturi in the rock late at night and robz luking at kasturi. and that cudberry was veryyyyyyyy cute. i like how robbie can always tell if something if something is wrong with kasturi. shows understanding between them. but yaar i felt this part was a little short. lambaaaaaa part likhna next time. that was so realistic how rushan didn't call, i mean u see many ppl get caught up with in the moment and make promises but later on they forget or lose that enthusiasm about their promises. i've seen that happenig a lot. not many ppl keep their words. yaar, ur making me feel so nervous and scared that once my school and college life is over, i'll be dead. i don't want this to end. i too just realized that these r the best days of life several weeks ago 😆 wen i had my teacher observing us (me aur my friends) in the cafeteria, laughing and joking around, she came to us and said that these r the best days of ur lives, enjoy as much as u can. i was quite shocked at that statement, cuz i was like waiting for the best time to come but made me realize that we should live in our present. very nice part JW, very close to reality. 👏 👏 write the nest part veryyyyyyyyyy soon.ok

EDITED after reading:

OK JW: woooooow!👏

🤗

You're just getting better and better with each update!

I was looking forward to the update last night, but when I saw it today I was sooooooo glad!

Ok now to the part:

Yay! A third person knows about them! Go Gayu!

I loved the cutting chai bit...hilarious...I wasn't sure what you meant at first, but I have heard the expression adn when he added "chai" to it I instantly knew what you meant!

I loved the song selection too, I'm listening to this song a lot these days. I loved Saif in it! The movie was a let-down, but the song was good. It was fitting in this situation too! Sorry, I'm going off track!

Ok back on track:

I adored how Kasturi tried to be genuinely happy for Robbie after the performance, even though she was battling herself inside. I loved the constat " do you know?" in her mind. Totally natural apprehension!

Also, I loved the last bit with Robbie dropping her home. The "aut..aur" bit was sooooo sweet and again very natural. I could picture Robbie's face lit up with curiosity and then him rebuking himself on it! The toally saw the whole scene flash before my eyes! In fact, I can picture all of your scenes, esp. the RoKa ones.

The part about them not hearing news yet, totally realistic, because life doesn't always go at the speed we want, and in this industry let-downs are a big part of the process.

I was a tad disappointed at Kaush feeling that the scene she saw the other day was just a friendly one, but in this situation, with both of them trying to cover up their feelings, its natural. So props on that JW!

I also loved how Robbie felt like wasting more time on something that's not yet concrete would be a let-down for Puru. Totally understandable sentiment from a loving son who respects his father.

Ok....will be back to add more in a while. really hungry right now!

OK EDITED 2nd time:

LOL JW your probably think of me as crazy cause I always leave to eat, but the thing is that I rusually read your updates before lunch.

Anyways, back to the part, umm....

I liked how you explained some of the terms you used in the end, that was nice. It helped! And I also like that you give credit to the song and the sayings that you used in previous parts! Kudos to you for being so wonderful and giving credit where it is due! I'll try and do that too!

Ok now I really want to find out when Robboie moves to Mumbai because Kasturi is so excited for him, but at the same time they will be moving apart so they're sad inside too. Loved how you portrayed that! I've just got to hand it to you for expressing all of their emotions so well.

Continue soon! And keep rocking like you always do!

Love and eagerness,

STAR ⭐️

Hey JW 😃

Kayyyyyyyy🤗🤗🤗

Kaisi hai dost😃

SO RO-Ar have done their last performance at college...

Yup Bachhon ka college katam hone ko aaya hai😆

.it was good the Mr Rushaan seemed to enjoy their music and take a liking towards them....but what happened in the end.....he didnt get back to them so the struggle continues then...........

Just wanted to highlight that what we believe would happen and what actually happens is many times not the same. For example job interviews or applications. Often, unless we follow-up or chase the recruiting organisation, nothing gets done...

So yes Rushaan gave the verbal appreciation....par not the much needed action.😊.....hope I could explain, sowwie if I was off the mark😳

Just like Ariv noticed Ros feelings.....Kasturis friend has noticed too 😉....lets see how long these feelings are avoided and hidden away 😉 😆

😆😆...yep yep....kab tak bachenge😉

Loved the talk between RoKa about childhood days and memories......its very sweet 😳 they really do share a deep bond 😳

Thanks 🤗. You put it really well. To me thats a very basic and deep connection between them....not everything in life is about a man and woman's love.....perhaps in our growing up life especially from teenage to adults in our prime, we dont give importance to the others ...but on a lot of levels, parent child bonds, childhood bonds, sibling love, friendship, comradeship and comfort zones with different people are equally important.......as all of this defines us😊

and also the talk in the car.....it shows how they share everything

Yes they do.....wanted to bring out the fact that Kasturi knows about Mumbai subtlely. Hope I achieved that😊

As always JW loved all the dialogues, jokes and RoKa thoughts.....all very well written 👏 👏 👏

Thanks so much Kay🤗🤗...very sweet of you🤗🤗

Liked how Ariv told them about the professor falling off the stage 😆 😆 😆
Am glad you did😆😆

Looking forward to the next parts 😃

Kay thanks so much for the consistent encouragement and kind words.....much appreciated🤗🤗🤗

JW😊
