Saakshi opens his DM, and writes.... " Hi Aaskash, This is Saakshi Krish.. Sorry It was an accident that I liked your picture.. I was not stalking ... Promise... Was just...... " (She stops typing) What The hell am I doing..., If he has not seen, I will look like a stupid.

"Saakshi, nee kandipa loosu than.. Kashtam Kashtam, Romba Kashtam" she says to herself and deletes the text.

"Mr.Aaskah, See you next week, Maanam pogama irundha seri... ( hope I dont get trolled again)" she says to herself and walks off to her room.

**Few days pass by, The Test shoot, Finalization and other Pre Production work is done.... Just one more day to go for the shoot**

Sunday Evening (A day before shoot)

Saakshi is busy setting up her makeup kit and other accessories for tomorrow shoot.... She gets call from her friend Shyam..... She picks the call... and side by side gets her packing done.

"Hi Shyam, sollu da .." she says as she does her work.

Shyam: "Hey Are you busy? It's been more than a week you texted me, Kandukarathe ella (You dont even bother me these days)

Saakshi: Hey Nothing Like that..! Little busy with my work. Tomorrow, the CWC2 Season is starting. So just preparing for it. How was college today?

Shyam: College was good. New cultural event is up... I am dancing, so was up with rehearsals ..... and btw... I was expecting a call from you. I thought you will inform me about the shoot.

Saakshi : Sorry Da, was busy. Also, It's just starting.... Was about to text & tell you all in our group. First day... So I thought......

Shyam : Group?( he interuptts) I am talking about texting me. I have a Personal DM.... just reminding.

Saakshi : Sabba!! Ok Sorry da............, done!! Friends have no formalities I guess.... Ok Can I call you after some time, I am little busy now... Also Amma is also waiting. We are doing a small pooja at home. So Shall I call you later?

Shyam: Alright.... I am going to college tomorrow.... having assignments to submit.. Shall I visit you on sets tomorrow after that?

(At the same time.... Chinni ma yells.. Where are you? Come fast, It's Time for Pooja)

Saakshi: (Saakshi din't hear what he said)...... Ya Ok bye.. Amma is calling....... She cuts the call and goes... (Totally unaware of the fact that he is visiting her tomorrow)

**Meanwhile at Aakash's home**

Aakash is watching the finale of CWC1... The last episode before taking up the shoot....

He claps happily, as Saakshi is the pair of winner....

"The chefs gives trophy to Saakshi... and Saakshi breaks down...."

"Intha korala vechu ellarum enna kindal pannanga, nan fake nu sonnanga, aana ipo athe kural ennaku Identity ya iruku...." She cries.....

(Everyone made fun of my voice, They said I am fake, Now the same voice has become my Identity She cries...)

Aakash catches hold of the remote tighlty... He helds it with both the hands.... He moves to the edge of the seat.... Tears slowly rolled down his eyes..... and fell on his hands...." He could sense her pain for real... His eyes turn red in anger and sorrow. He slowly wipes his tears, reaches for tissue....

Karthik walks in and is shocked to see Aakash crying: "What the hell happended? " He reverts in shock...

Aaskash says "Nothing.. He gets up.... I was watching CWC! finale... as preparation... Saw Saakshi crying... athan...."He wipes is face as he speaks...
