Nandini shakes his hand. Nandini: I've never seen you in this college before. Are you new here? Student: Yes, you guessed it right! I’m new here. Nandini: What's your name? Student: Viaan this side. And what about you? Nandini gets shocked, entwines both her fingers, and looks down. Viaan puts his hand on her shoulder. Nandini gets startled. Viaan: Hey, are you okay? Nandini: Y-yeah... I... I'm okay. Viaan: Are you sure? Nandini: Yes... I... I'm fine. I... I need to go home, it's getting late. Viaan: If you want, I can drop you. Nandini: No... no need for that. I can go on my own. Viaan: Are you sure? Nandini: Yes, I am... Nandini notices Manik there. Nandini: Umm... Viaan, actually, would you like to drink coffee? (Manik sees them talking and comes closer to hear their conversation.) Viaan: But don’t you have to go home? Nandini: You’re new here... Let me accompany you and show you the college. Viaan: Okay, fine. As you say! Nandini holds Viaan’s hand to hurt Manik. (Manik clenches his fist, seeing them together.) Nandini: What happened? Why did you stop? Viaan gives her a smile. Viaan: Nothing, let’s go! Manik comes in their way and pulls Nandini’s hand away from Viaan’s shoulder. Manik: Nandini, I want to talk to you about something important! (He holds her hand and is about to take her away, but Nandini pulls her hand back.) Nandini: Can’t you see that I’m spending time with him? I’ll come later... You go! Manik (sternly): I said come! Viaan: She’s saying she’ll come later... Then why are you forcing her? If a girl says no, it means you don’t have the right to force her! Manik: Who are you to tell me this? Viaan: Maybe someone better than you—someone who knows his limits. Manik grabs Viaan’s collar.

Manik: You! Viaan (holding his hand): I have a name! Manik: It can’t be better than mine! Viaan: Oh? Then may I know your name? Manik: Manik Malhotra. The crush of every girl in this college. Viaan: Except her, right?
Nandini looks at both of them.
Manik: Oh, so sad! You don’t even know her name? Damn! You both were going on a coffee date and don’t know each other’s names? Sad! Very sad! Nandini looks at Viaan. Manik: No problem. I’ll introduce her. Her name is Nandini... Nandini Murthy. My everything. Viaan laughs. Viaan: Your delusions—my God! Anyway, Viaan here! Manik is shocked and releases his collar. Viaan: What happened? Is my name better than yours? Manik looks around awkwardly. Viaan: You’re damn weird, bruh! Manik: Not more than you! Nandini: Just shut up, both of you! Viaan: Nandini, just ignore him. Let’s go for our coffee date. Manik: No way! If she’s going with someone, it’ll only be me! Viaan: Oh really? But she doesn’t even want to talk to you! Manik: That doesn’t matter to me. I want to talk to her! Viaan: Oh, I see! Playboy behaviour—interesting. Manik scoffs.
