Serendipitous Love - Ep05

EP04 here

Lal knew he needed to act rapidly, Dhairya was under total house arrest, and it was not easy to get through the new firewalls created by his parents. He knew everything in Khurana mansion was sniffed and screened. He thought again and again, it was important to send message and coke to Dhairya, he was a catch Lal won’t lose easily. Lal caught hold of a person who would get him coke.

Lal figured the only way which could ensure safe delivery of parcel was through the maid of the house but she was a long standing employee with the family.

Not an easy meat, thought Lal.

Lal took risk, to his surprise she agreed to provide coke to Dhairya. Lal paid half a grand to her to get it to Dhairya.

Meanwhile, Dhairya threw fit about being house arrested. He told his parents that he needed work but his pleads fell on deaf ears. For an author Dharya’s parents would be a curious case, Free enough to put restrictions & busy enough to not sit and listen to their son.  Dhairya showed all signs of an addict; restlessness, anxiety, heavy breathing but the parents turned blind on him. Dhairya’s parents not only grounded him but were deaf, blind, and reticent to him.

Ganga, the housemaid delivered coke with a note,

Found a Heroine, we shoot in two weeks...

Ganga ensured that Dhairya’s parents won’t find him next few days. She had a job to save & she needed money too.  Dhairya was also careful … last time he was found in his own vomit. He didn't want to repeat again.

 Krutika Malwe was small from small town. She was the same girl whose album Lal had spotted at Catalanta. She had come in with high hopes and no money.  Like every other Indian family acting was looked down upon. But kids like Krutika care lest of society. On the last day of graduation she hopped into a train which brought her to Mumbai, safely. She stayed at her “Bua’s” place for sometime.

She had it chalked out, first to get job and then try her luck in the entertainment industry.  She knew her farmer father could never support her leisurely pursuit. She had found a job in local BPO for 8000 bucks and in few days moved out of Bua’s house.

Krutika was a fiver, slender, one may call her undernourished, wheatish , dark eyes, and had a long tress of hair. 

Just like the type Yash Saab liked to cast.
