AvNeil to AdiZa

First Shoot

It was the first day of a pretty exciting journey for a lot of people. Aditi was not much of a social person. She takes her time to get along with people and circumstances. On the other hand, Zain was a very cheerful person who mingles up and makes friends quickly. Both of them dressed up to transform fully into Avni and Neil.
Aditi took more time to get ready, putting on her ripped jeans, offshoulder top, minimal makeup and hair ends curled up. Her look was unique and got prettier with a little silver nose ring.

She shot for her single shots of entering into a hospital with stolen money. Zain also did his first scene of getting drenched up in rain along with Jahan who played DD( Neil's loyal assistant cop). He felt happy to have done a cool outdoor scene as his introduction scene. Soon he changed into formal look of Neil Khana. Zain glanced himself in the mirror wearing a blue shirt, pants and a waist coat completing his look. He was going for his first ever shot with his heroine. He found her silent most of the time on sets and wondered how are they going to get along.

From being lover boys in his past three shows, he was going to play a cop which thrilled him. Actions scenes were always his favourite. He was sure of getting to do action here. They were called for the shot. Zain came outside and his gaze fell on a really pretty Aditi.

Zain: New look. Its cool!

Aditi(not expecting a compliment this soon): Thankyou.. 😊 Different hai na?

Zain: Yea!

The shot was explained to them which was their first meeting unknown to each other in a hospital. They were not to see each other's face. Just brush past by shoulders and yes thats it. Zain and Aditi discussed about how are they going to pull of their first simple and sweet scene and steadied themselves.

The CVs were discussing the impact of this scene if they did really well.

CV1: This is their first scene together. I have no idea how is it going to come out. The scene doesn't demand any chemistry na?

CV2: May be not. But some spark should be there.

Suddenly the director ordered
"Silence!! Aaaandd ACTION!"

Aditi and Zain walked over from opposite sides without noticing each other. Her shoulders brush past his and he sensed a strange feeling inside him. He slowly turned back only to see a girl turned the other side and the security guard asking her to be careful not to get hurt by the sparks flying over due to electric works there. Zain's hazel brown eyes held all the emotions Neil went through in a moment. The entire sequence graced with the magical 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' bgm made the scene just perfect!

Director: CUT IT!

Aditi and Zain looked over questioningly at the crew witnessing the shot and soon claps thundered upon them.

CV1: Perfect! You have blazing chemistry between you guyz! Can't even call it chemistry.. its something magical!

CV2: Beyond words! Here comes our very own new jodi! Bravo!!

Director: Come and see what you have done guyz. You have set the screen on fire! Now, meeting the audience expectation is a tough job. But, I really think you are gonna kill it. A simple scene had too much feels with you people. Well done!

AdiZa: Thankyou Sir!

CV1: I am impatient for this episode to air! I am excited for the viewers' feedbacks.

CV2: And what name would they give you! Lets see!

Zain and Aditi smiled at each other happily. Compliments echoed in their ears. And they went to change since they have been allowed to go home as its the first day. They knew more hectic schedules are to come up. They changed into their own attires and bid a bye to the crew who were busy shooting some scenes of Ali, Swetha and Prakash which they can do without Aditi and Zain. At the doorstep...

Zain: Where do you stay?

Aditi: Flat hai.. at Bandra.

Zain: Ohkay! Do you stay alone?

Aditi: No. I have my friend with me. I mean.. boyfriend.

Zain: Oh! Thats cool! Kaise jaogi? Do you want me to drop you?

Aditi: Nop! I guess he will pick me up. Thankyou for asking...

Zain: My pleasure..

Just then a tall man with a heavily worked out body like that of a body builder haulted his car in front of them. He got out and sidehugged Aditi.

Aditi: Hey! Meet Zain! My co-star..

Zain extended his hand for a handshake cordially accepted by the other person.

Zain: Hey! Zain Imam..

Bf: I know dude! I have seen your show. I am Bf. Glad to meet you!

Zain: Same here! Chalo I will catch you guyz later. Got some shopping left with friends. See ya..

Aditi: Bye! Oh Zain wait..

Zain: Yea?

Aditi: Can I have your number?

Zain: Oh yes! I completely forgot about that. Tell me yours, I will give a miss call.

Thus, they exchanged phone numbers and bid a bye for the day.

Zain's POV:

Finally done with the first day! Its so much fun on the sets. Gulfam ji is really sweet. In fact everybody is! The sets have energy of a youthful show. And Aditi... she is a bit reserved. But thats not a problem. Har kisi ka apna apna character hotha hai. But I feel she is clean at heart..

Aditi was also engrossed in thoughts occassionally sharing that day's happenings with her partner in the car. First episode was to air on monday and she was looking forward to it. She must not have even thought that she was gonna earn an amazing fan following and people would write fanfictions on them. While smiling to herself she recollected the CVs talk..

"I wonder what would viewers name them!"

And she closed her eyes for a nap before reaching her flat...
