Manan ff : The Manager

chapter 16

As soon as Fab5 stepped on the stage, the whole crowd went crazy and roared their name on top of their voices.

Taking the mic in his hand, Manik addressed the crowd.

Manik ( with a childish smile ) : first of all. .....I would love to thank each one of you for coming here. .....I mean. ....we Fab5 are honoured to have all of you present over here. .....without your love and support. .....we are nothing! !!!!!!.......agar Fab5 ke fan's nehin hote. .....toh aaj Fab5 yaha nehin hota! !!!!! ......so thank you guy's and love you all. ......

Crowd : we too love you Fab5. .......

Manik ( with a hearty smile ) : coming back to today's' Live Concert ' ......well. .....what to say about it. .......aaj ka song. .....is really very special. .....but usske pehele. .... I would like to confess something ki. .....'we boys are selfish '

As soon as Manik said this, the whole crowd went silent.

Manik ( genuinely ) : yes. .....it is true ki we boys are selfish! !!!!!........hum humari daily life mein. ....kahi naa kahi aapne better half. .......girlfriend. .....yah soulmate  .......ko bhul jaate hai! !!!!!!.......unn he pecche chhod dete hai. ......which is very wrong! !!!!!!.......hum itne bade gadhe  hai. ......ki we don't even realise. ......ki unn ke bina hum kuch nehin hai! !!!!!!!......so. .....aaj ka performance is dedicated to all the 'SUPER WOMEN'S  'out there. ......joh humein jeena sikhati hai. ...... 'Aaj ka song is dedicated to My Super Women  '....... ( Manik said the last line in trance. .....thinking about his Crazy Manager. .....his Nandu  )

On hearing the last line, Nandini's heart skipped a beat and she started blushing, for some unknown reason.

But, the scene of Soha hugging Manik, ruined it.

Manik calmly started singing.

Dheere se khinchon
Tum inn pardon ko
Ungli na fanse
Thoda sambhal ke
Taala lagana
Jo niklo ghar se (Manik closed his eyes and thought about Nandini's smiling face )

Keh paaunga mein
Abse na tumse ye
Kabhi
Samjhaunga main
Kaise jaane kaise
Khud ko bhi (slowly Manik opened his eyes, meaning each and every word he sang )

Fursat jo mile khudse
To apni khabar lena
Fursat jo mile khudse
Ho. ... (Manik sang as if trying to convey something )

Hasrat ki hatheli pe
Mere do pal rakh lena
Fursat ke usi pal mein
Kabhi kabhi ye keh dena (Manik just keept on thinking about Nandini's smile )

Hey ya, hey are you
Feeling okay?
Hey ya, hey are you
Feeling okay? (Fab5 in unison )

Hmm. ...O. ....

Aani jaani, haan ye
Kahaani
Ho na jaaye
Kho na jaaun, main
Kahi tu
Kho na jaaye

Sang mere hongi
Teri meri, meri teri
Yaadein
Khudse kar lunga
Teri bas teri sau
Baatein

Fursat jo mile khudse
Tu apni khabar lena
Fursat jo mile khudse
Kabhi kabhi ye keh
Dena  (Manik thought about Nandini's angry avatar, whenever he deliberately irritates her )

Hey ya, hey are you
Feeling okay?
Hey ya, hey are you
Feeling okay? (2 ) ( Fab5 in unison )

Naa raha bahana
Naa koi hai wajah
Par tu phir milegi
Aayegi woh subha

Fursat jo mile khudse
To apni khabar lena
Fursat jo mile khudse
Ho

Hasrat ki hatheli pe
Mere do pal rakh lena
Fursat ke usi pal mein
Kabhi kabhi ye keh
dena (Manik keept on smiling like a fool thinking about the moments he had spend with Nandini )
