Song: Addicted by Enrique

"Ahsaas Arora and Kabir Ahluwalia. Good choice sister." Sriti said.

"Except the fact that we'll have to deal with their yelling at each other on screen and off screen." Manav said.

"Hush! You're done for if they hear you." I said, laughing.

Sriti Roy and Manav Bhansali were the two actors playing Naina and Aarav respectively on the television adaptation of Love, Unexpected.

"What is the name of our show, by the way?" Sriti asked.

"The other show is called Baatein Kuch Ankahi Si because Rishi and Kriti failed to realise their love for each other until a certain point if time where they had movies on with their lives. However, this show will be more into the friendship between Aarav, Alisha, Naina and Sameer. I mean, eventually, we need to come to the part where Naina and Aarav begin their relationship. So, I thought about naming this show Tu Jee Le Zara."

"That's a good name. But why Life In A Metro Songs for both?" Manav asked.

"I don't know. The lyrics just matched with my stories." I said.

"Hey stranger." Ahsaas came up to me. "How was the wedding? I heard that high school crush of yours came back."

"First of all, thanks, it was amazing. And second, he isn't a crush. He is just an irritated human being whom God sent to torture me."

Sriti giggled.

"What?" I said.

"Nothing." She said as Ahsaas and she started laughing.

"I don't think I am that frustrating."

Bloody Sameer Sharma.

"This is a closed shoot. How did you get in?" I said.

"This." He showed me the access pass I had made for Aarav and Naina in case they needed me and I couldn't get out of work.

"Traitors." I sighed.

"Sam." He reached his hand out to Sriti.

"Sriti." She replied.

"Hey dude." Kabir said hugging Sam.

"Hey bro."

"Since when did you become 'dude' and 'bro'?" I asked, a little taken aback.

"Since the night before the wedding." Kabir answered.

"We've heard a lot of things about you, or rather read." Ahsaas said.

"Hey, I've seen you on tv." Sam said.

Isn't that obvious? She's a friggin actress!

"We've heard and read a lot of things about you." Manav said.

"I am nothing like the way she portrays me in those books of hers."

"You are exactly like that as much as I can see. An extremely handsome guy with a hint of narcissism." Ahsaas said.

"Then, she's done a great job at describing me." He smirked.

Blah blah.

"Ready to go?" He suddenly asked.

"What?"

"I was told you needed me to pick you up."

"Wrong. I told Aarav to pick me up." I said.

"Alisha, jabse tujhko hai jaana, dil ne kaha na maana, sach toh hai, tu kaha mein kaha..."

No fucking way.
