"To aj ka kya plan hain Sara?" Mrunal asked while walking out from the place.

"Kuch nahi mam. Baas yeh case study karungi aur fir pasta khate khate koi acchi documentary dekhke soo jaungi"
Sara smiled.

"Tum iss generation se kaafi alag ho. Itni calm, mature aur pyaari. God bless you baccha",said Mrunal smiling  back.

"By the way pehle mujhe sab pata lagake decide karne do ki yeh case lena hain ki nahi baadme tumhe bata dungi ki tumhe kya karna hain" Mrunal said in a serious tone.

"Kiu mam? I mean uss bichari ki halat...ese darindo ko saja honi hi chahiye"

"Sara yeh admi na mujhe kuch gadbad lagta hain. Film industry jitni jameen k bahar hain utni hi jameen k andar. Jitna main janti hu ki 27 years se hain iss industry main pehle acting bhi karta tha par fir producer ban gaya. Paar I want to know about him more"

"27! How old is he?"

"49 jitna maine dekha"

"He is so fit Mam. I mean mujhe laga 40 k aas paas honge"

"Hmm"

"Sara tum ghar jaw. I will let you know any update later"







Sara went to the sea beach before going home. She sat on the sand and started watching the sunset. She noticed some huge cameras and some things which indicated that a shooting just came to an end here. Now they are wrapping up. Sara chuckled in mind thinking that her destiny was going towards her mom's passion that day.

Suddenly a woman screamed out of her lungs. She went to close to the sea and now drowning. Sara was getting ready to run and jump in the water to save her. Before that,  she saw someone's jump to the sea water and the man saved the woman. Sara still went near to help. She couldn’t see him properly as his face was covered with a cloth  but their eyes met. But suddenly people started crowding around him pushing Sara aside. She stumbled back a little.

Sara stepped back as the crowd was now hooting, screaming and cheering. She took her belongings from the sand and started walking. She thought to take a walk to home as the weather was truly amazing.


Sara was walking and heard a voice from behind,

"Excuse me Miss"

She turned around and saw a man.

"Ji kahiye"

He went near her and she understood that he was the saviour guy.

"Apko chot to nahi lagi na? I mean ap waha shayad help karne ayi thi paar..."

Sara smiled and said, "Aree bilkul nahi. By the way you were truly amazing there"

"Thanks" Kartik smiled shyly.

"I am Sara Taneja"

"I am Kartik Chauhan"

Kartik forwarded his hand. Sara was shocked for a moment but then composed herself and shook hand.

Kartik smiled and left.

Sara kept walking. She never faced coincidences like this.

"He don’t seem that bad though but maybe people don't have the identity written  on their face or never show what they are thinking or how they are" Sara thought in mind.






Sara obeyed her senior and didn’t do any inquiry about their client.

Sara was reading her book when her mom Mrs.Rima Taneja called.

"Hello beta how're you doing?"

"I am good mom. How are you? How's dad?"

"We are good. Just missing you badly. Come here na beta. What's there in India?"

"Mumma I don’t wanna go and settle in America. I am making my own identity here. People are knowing me by my name. That's what I wanted from my childhood"

"Accha baba. Do whatever your heart says. Ab meri baat to suni nahi pehle to ab kar bhi kya sakti hu"

"Arey meri pyari mumma agar apki tarah actress ban jaati to kya ho jata boliye. Do chaar flop films de deti" Sara laughed out.

"Kuch bhi! I started acting at 17, Sara! 40 tak acting ki hain maine. Majal hain ki koi flop film di. Aur tum mujhpe gayi ho cehre se bhi aur shayad acting main bhi samjhi?"

"Chodo na mom. I am happy with my life" Sara smiled.

They continued chit-chatting and then cut the call.



At Kartik's place,

Kartik was doing gym with a smirk on his lips flaunting his muscles.





Precap:

"Sara you need to obey me" Mrunal ordered.

"Why me?"





"I have signed a film named 
Ishq"

"Who's the heroine?"

"Not finalised"
