CUT TO:
INT. A HALLWAY - EVENING
Krishnaa is walking through the hallways, a polite smile on her face but she is lost in thought. Dhrishtadyumna enters the hallway at an intersection, and Krishnaa notices him. She grins excitedly and rushes to hug her twin.
KRISHNAA
Finally, Dhrishta! What keeps you away so long?
DHRISHTADYUMNA
(sheepish smile)
Sorry, Krishnaa. I needed to clarify something with one of the ministers.
KRISHNAA
So you stayed away from me.
DHRISHTADYUMNA
(laughs)
Drau, come on! I saw you not 2 praharas ago.
KRISHNAA
That is 2 praharas too long!
Dhrishtadyumna laughs. Krishnaa smacks his shoulder. There is a momentary pause, and then she grabs his hand and they walk away, talking about something else.
INT. THE PALACE DINING ROOM - EVENING - CONTINUOUS
The dining hall is full of people. Servants bring in steaming dishes fresh from the kitchen, and members of the royal family are seated and chatting with each other. Krishnaa and Dhrishtadyumna enter, and everyone's eyes are drawn to them.
Smiles widen when they see the two.
DHRISHTADYUMNA AND KRISHNAA
Pranaam, Pita, Mata.
PRISHATI
Come and sit down, children.
Dhrishtadyumna sits down first next to Shikhandi and Krishnaa takes a moment to tuck her sari properly before sitting at the table.
Once the servants are done serving the food, Prishati dismisses them. Everyone begins to eat.
YUDHAMANYU
Did you clarify what you went to the Mahamantri about, Dhrishtadyumna?
DHRISHTADYUMNA
I did, Bhrata.
The matter is not brought up again.
