"Ready Swara?" asked Ragini

Swara gave a thumps up.

Ragini nodded and began singing. Swara danced to her song.

"Sun sathiya...mahiya...Barsa de ishqa ki syahiyaan.....
Rang jaun, rang rang jau ri, haari mein...
Tujh pe mei jhar jhar jhar jau
Hoon piya bas terii mein..."

"Ragini's voice is so mesmerizing. I could sit here all day listening to her" said Laksh dreamily as Ragini continued to sing melodiously.

"Yep. Ragu is a great singer. She is my sister after all." said Mani proudly with his chin raised.

"She's a great singer, but you're totally useless. Are you really related to her?" teased Sanskar.

Mani glared at him.

"Wow. Who knew that Swara could dance like that? With the attitude she carries, I thought she knew only hip hop or something of that genre." said Laksh watching Swara dance elegantly.

"Swara knows a lot of dance forms. She's also called the dance queen of the college. " said Manish.

"She looks so innocent while dancing. It's hard to believe that she is so wild and notorious." Sanskar said with a chuckle.

"Innocent? Swara?  Dude..... Those two words should never be used together in a sentence. She's a monster in disguise." Mani said.

"Whatever. You can't deny that she's an awesome dancer." Laksh told him.

"She's not thaattt good. Anyone can dance like that with a bit of training"

"Now that's just a lame excuse. Just accept that she's a great dancer."

"No she's not. And you're saying it just to contradict me since you hate me." Mani told Laksh accusingly.

"Leave it Lucky. Mani's ego is too big for him to admit the truth."

Mani just huffed. To tell the truth, he knew Swara was an awesome dancer, but that didn't mean that he would praise Swara, his 'arch enemy'.

"They're almost done practicing. Let's go tell them that they did great!" Sanskar said getting up from his seat.

"Yea. Lets g--" Mani stopped mid sentence as he looked at something behind Laksh. Or rather at someone.

Lucky and Sanky turned to see a guy heading towards the stage where Swara and Ragini were practicing. Mani looked pissed seeing him.

"Mani you look like you're about to go and join World War III.  What's the Matter?"

"That guy  Pawan.... If Bhai didn't make me promise not to cause a scene in public, I would beat that guy into oblivion." Mani said, cracking his knuckles.

"Did he steal your girlfriend or something?" Lucky tried to lighten the situation.

"He's heading for the stage. Let's go. I'll explain later." Mani said as he rushed towards the stage with Sanky and Lucky behind him.

#At the stage#

"You were great Swara, as always!" said Ragini.

"It's all because of this amazing singer that I have with me." Swara said, giving Ragini a hug.

"I wonder how amazing you would be if you had a broken leg." said a guy coming on the stage. He was a muscular guy, and was looking at Swara with a sinister smile.
