Chapter No # 8
In Andheri Nagri, Mumbai
In Police Station
After the bitter conversation with Bittu Ji, RK was lost in his own thoughts, remembering about Her. He was so lost in thinking and remembering about her that he didn’t know when Bittu Ji left and when the most senior inspector who insulted Bittu Ji earlier, came here and started insulting him and mocked him and also said he doesn’t give a damn to his Superstar status & no VIP treatment will be given to him. Listening all this even, RK was brought back from his remembering session and hearing the words, RK anger knew no bounds but knowing right now he needs to gulp his anger and later he will show to him what does his Superstar status actually means.Next, He was send to the same Lock up, where the highest level of Lunatic & Insane person was locked. Unaware what does Relation he holds toward the Person. RK kept hearing his Lunaticity as well as his anger was also building up. But when that person palms his shoulder, RK lost it, and immediately he clutched the collar and warned him to be in his limits or else he would beat him black & blue. Being terrified of RK, that person controls his hands and told him story that how he was arrested and because of his Bad Omen daughter “Madhubala” to whom he killed himself alongwith his elder daughter & wife. And how his daughter’s bad omen is not leaving him in peace even after She was dead.
Next, RK through the sub-inspector heard the audio conversation of Madhubala, in which She give Audio interview to the press. The words which She spoke didn’t catch his attention, but it was her voice that caught his attention. And now his doubt about her was getting clear & clear. Next he thought if She is in same person that how can She changed so much, She was the same person who always wished him for Good luck and now if She is the same person so can She go against him, Her Rishabh. But little he knew like He was changed so She was changed and She isn’t the same person whom he had last saw 5 years ago.
He kept on listening to her words, and instead of feeling anger on her, he was amused to see her confidence level. Once She wasn’t this much confident as She is right now.
Listening Her voice, he smirked and says innerly.
RK: It’s going to be fun meeting you, Madhubala. Ahaaannnn…
In Dada Sahab Phalke Nagar Chawl
In Malik’s 1 Room flat
Madhubala even though was happy that finally the guilty person is now paying for his Sins. But then, seeing no one is looking at her, she took off her happy facade, and her eyes became Teary and thought how much She was changed. She stooped low for that one person about whom She had always thought & wished for his best. 5 Years ago, He wasn’t a Superstar but a Spoilt rich brat of Late Successful Producer “Mohan Kundra” but still being Spoilt he has his Humanity intact which now seems there is no humanity intact in him. He is so different from him now & then. She never knew and never even bothered to ask what caused him to be ill-mannered. She knew how was Mohan Kundra, he was a noble person who had noble qualities in him, which made him stand out from everyone, and that Person’s son wouldn’t be this ill-mannered person. Agreed His father’s death would have left a great impact on Rishabh, but this couldn’t be the reason. How badly She wanted to ask him, and soothe his inner wounds which can not be seen which can only be felt and She, Madhubala has felt His Pain & His Inner wounds. She wanted to soothe his wounds, but knowing what She meant to him has never encouraged her. For him, first She was his enemy then when they both became friends, She came to know, He was Committed and really in Love with His Girlfriend “Deepali” to whom he had always called lovingly “Dips”. She also used to live in Chawl but since He had committed to Her, he had shifted Her to his Personal flat and apart from that She doesn’t know what occurred between them but a smile on his face while talking to Her explains everything. That he was happily committed to Her. Whereas She for him, She was always his friend nothing else in their Friendship period. And if She meant something more to him, then he wouldn’t have kept his relationship secret from her. She got to know about His relationship from a third person when he should have told her if He ever considered her, his friend.
