Aarushi walked into the store room to collect her costume. The costume was kept in a small blue colour tray. On top of the costume, was a note from The Head. She grabbed the tray and walked back in the living room. She kept the tray on the centre table and took the note in her hand.

Everyone was sitting in a semi-circle facing Aarushi. None of them bothered to see the costume. They were all discussing as to what might be written in the note sent by The Head. Aarushi started to read loudly but no one was listening.

She coughed so as to get everyone's attention. No one seemed to notice. She pouted.

"Ahem, ahem ministers, I need your attention here, please." She again said.   Everyone stopped their chatty conversation and looked at her, finally. Aarushi started reading.

"Is tray mein Aarushi ki costume bheji  gayi hai. Head chahte hain ki Aarushi iss costume ko pehen le aur gaane ke bajne ka intezaar kare. Agle perform karne wale sadasya Sumedh honge. Unka saath Rohan aur Karan denge. Unki costume bhej di jaayegi. Aapka ka luxury budget kaarya shuru hone wala hai. Good luck, The Head."

Aarushi looked up. She went towards the tray and picked it up.

"Kya hai usmein?" Nivi asked.

Aarushi held up her costume in her hands and gasped.

"What the f*ck?!" Aarushi yelled.

Day 1. 12:30 p.m.

Aarushi stood infront of everyone. All of them were trying to stifle their laughter. The girls were swooning over Aarushi. She stood their in black trousers, white shirt and black coat. Her hair were tied up and gently tucked inside the wig of short boy cut hair. She was dressed like a young flirty boy.

"You know what? Sam, mere bag mein se mera kajal le aao na please?" Aarushi asked Sameeksha. Sam nodded and went to the bedroom.

"Yaar, Aarushi bahut mast lag rahi--oops! Rahe ho...ab tumhara naam change karna padega..." Yudhveer laughed.

Aarushi gave him a death glare.

"Ek aur shabd apne ghatiya muh se nikalo aur mein tumhari jeeb kheechkar Bandana ko gift kar dungi." Aarushi snapped at Yudhveer.

"Tauba, Tauba!" Yudhveer said crossing his hands on both of his ears."Kaisa zamana aa gaya hai...itni hinsak bhari baatein....M.K.G. aaj ki duniya dekhenge toh kya sochenge?"

"M.K.G.?" Zayn asked a little confused.

"Uska matlab Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi tha." Siddharth answered.

"Haan bhai, bahut lamba naam hai...isliye short mein kahan." Yudhveer said fidgeting with his hair.
Aarushi rolled her eyes. Sam came back with the kajal.

"Ah, thanks." Aarushi said taking the kajal from Sam. She went to the nearest mirror and drew a moustache   on top of her upper lip.

"Bas, iski hi kami thi." Namish commented. "Tumhe ladka banne ka shawk hai kya?"

"Teri kya problem hai, bhai?" Devaki defended. "Tu apne kaam se kaam rakh."

Namish got startled at her sudden outburst. He went and sat beside her.

"Arrey baby, gussa mat ho na...acha mein sorry bolta hun...ab toh smile karo..." Namish tried to persuade Devaki.

"Tharki." Parul muttered.

"Kutta hai. Kuch aur kaam dhaam nahi hai isse. Bas apni mom ke liye dhulhan doondhne aaya hai yeh idiot." Sara observed. Karan, who was sitting beside her, laughed.

"Every dog has their day, behen. Dekhna kisi din yeh pitega zaroor." Parul laughed. Bandana came their and saw Aarushi.

"Yeh cross dress kyun kar rahi hai?" Bandana asked stupidly.

"Kyunki uska antarmann jaag gaya hai. Woh actually ek ladka hai jo ek ladki ke shareer mein fasa hua hai." Sameeksha said rolling her eyes. "Yeh kaisa sawaal hai Bandana? It's  pretty obvious that she is getting ready for the task na?"

Bandana shrugged her shoulders. Suddenly, music started playing. Aarushi got alert. She came running in the middle of the house trying to guess the song.

"Arrey! Yeh woh gaana hai! Imran Khan ka! 'I hate love stories'." Nivi said. Aarushi stood there thinking what to do. Suddenly,  an idea struck in her mind. She went near Bandana and gave her a flirtatious smile. Bandana looked at her confused. Sameeksha raised her eyebrows. Devaki understood what Aarushi was trying to do. Parul, Sara and all the boys were confused. 

"Baby, you're so hot, you're on fire, so  one, two, three, four!" Aarushi sang and pulled Bandana close. Bandana understood now what Aarushi was trying to do. She was dressed like a man who should, otherwise, have some self dignity and not flirt with different women. However, Aarushi had to work in the opposite direction. She had to flirt with women because she was dressed up as a sophisticated man.

Bandana played along and sang with Aarushi. Everyone died out of laughter. Then Aarushi moved onto  Devaki.

"Jab milke Chora chori ho gayi masti thodi, thodi, bas pyaar ka naam mat lena, I hate love stories!" Aarushi danced with Devaki. The boys were enjoying the most. They looked at Aarushi flirting with girls and rolled  on the floor, laughing.

"Yeh kya anarth ho raha hai! Deva, re, Deva!" Sumedh placed his hand on his stomach as it started hurting due to his laughter.

Sameeksha also danced along. On one side, Aarushi's hand was on Sameeksha 's waist, in turn, Sameesha's hand was on Bandana's waist, whose hand was on Parul's waist. On the other side of Aarushi, her hand was on Devaki's waist whose hand was on Nivi's waist whose hand was on Sara's waist.

They moved their legs, alternatively, doing some weird step.

The boys started hooting and whistling like morons.

"Arrey, humare ghar mein ek hot womanizer hai....hum ladko ki toh vaat laga di isne." Rohan was laughing hard. "Dekho, Devaki usse kaisi chipki hui hai."

"Haan, Bandana bhi!" Yudhveer laughed.

"Sam the great bhi!" Sumedh was still rolling on the floor, laughing.

"Nivi ko toh dekho!! Chipkali!" Karan teased Nivi. She glared at him as if to say, 'Tum milo mujhe baadmein, tumhe toh mein dekh lungi.'

"Aarushi!" Zayn cheered. "You make  quite a charming lad!" He laughed.

"Yaar, Parul hatto wahan se!" Siddharth tried to swat her away but she was enjoying alot.

"Aye, Siddharth tum hatto wahan se...sara maja kirkira kar rahe ho!" Sumedh pushed him out of the way. "Tumhe kyun itni khujli ho rahi hai agar Parul 'hot ladke' ke saath nach rahi hai."

Siddharth scratched his head. Sumedh continued laughing.

What a moron.

"Sara! Mere saath dance karo na baby!"Namish called out to Sara.

"Chal futt, cartoon!" Sara replied back.  Now,  everyone started laughing. Soon, the music died down and everyone collapsed down in weary.

"Aaj bahut maja aaya! Ya allah, mera pet dard kar raha hai!" Zayn said smiling. Aarushi smiled back.

"Chalo,chalo show time khatam ho gaya ab sab apne kaam se kaam rakho. Meine aaj bade gande kaam kiye hai chee." Aarushi scrunched up her nose in disgust. Zayn found it very adorable. He grinned.

"You're so cute!"

"Why? Thankyou!"
