It'd been 5 years since that ill-fated day. Valentine's Day. Manik Malhotra, who'd reverted back to his Monster ways for the world, still had a place in his heart for his Star, his Nandini, who now had a whole new world herself.
Chance encounters l...
Everyone was in a hustle backstage, the auditorium was filling up with a huge crowd, trusties from the best colleges, students representatives, record label representatives, talent scouts, everyone who was anyone in South Hall was there.
"Mujhe susu karke aana chahiye tha."
Raichand muttered from behind the curtains, growing nervous as he saw the increasing crowd, and especially Shivaay in the front.
He definitely didn't want to under deliver on his expectations, on St. T's expectations.
"Chill Raichand. Footage mat kha. You know you've done a fucking brilliant job, and main aur Murthy toh hai hi exceptional. It'll be good."
Malik said casually, chewing gum, confident as always.
Manik and Cabir chuckled, they had began to see why this duo was compared to them so many times. Two sides of the same coin.
Suddenly, Nandini too joined the boys, ready in her costume and a nervous yet excited smile, with Manik unable to take his eyes off her.

"You don't have to return the costume after the show, right?"
Manik asked with a smirk, indirectly complimenting her, making her smile with narrowed eyes.
"No she doesn't!"
Alya yelled from backstage, where she was helping the background artists with their costumes, making both Manik and Nandini chuckle.
"Seriously though, Miss Murthy, you'll be the one nobody can take their eyes off of tonight."
Manik said with a boyish smile as he rubbed the nape of his head, coming closer to Nandini, who was blushing furiously. He could charm his way through anything and everything.
"No that'd be me, Malhotra. Murthy is looking incredible but come on, look at me."
