[Alia's P.O.V]

It was now time for dance performances. Jacqueline Fernandez was up with her item. We were ready to announce her entry to the stage. Kapil was for only one segment and in that short span, he had created enough havoc. "So now its time for 'Jack -to-lean- on me"  Rannu spoke with a grin so huge that the audience couldn't help but laugh at his eagerness.

"Hain ? What did you just said ?"  I asked. "I meant hamari Jackky Chan! For more convenience, we can put it like :  'Jack- lean -on me ! Howz that ? " he asked. The crowd roared. "Very funny. Double minded dumbo"  I hit his head and he chuckled.

"So Ladies and Gentlemen, its time for Jacqueline Fernandez to dance out her way to your hearts"  Rannu screamed. The audience clapped and cheered. Before leaving the stage, he muttered in a dreamy husky voice "Jack-Lean-On-Me!" I had to literally drag the nautanki towards back stage. She gave a fab performance from hit songs of her film Roy and Kick. After her exit, we came along with fubu.

"Baba! Im so obsessed with DDLJ  yaar"  said Fubu. "Your obsessed with what? I thought you were only obsessed with food"  rannu winked at our gang. Fubu made a pouting disappointed face. "Nahi baba. Im obsessed with you too"  Fubu said gleamingly. Girls hooted for them.

"Really ? Me toooo ?!" cried Ranveer and they hugged each other with a dramatic quotient. They surely emitted bichde-hue-saathi -feels.

Eww, gross!

I tried to pull them apart and stood in between them. "Hello, I'm also present yaa. Continue your bromance after the show"  I warned sternly.

Rannu's bulb got clicked all of a sudden "Why don't we guys enact the famous 'Bauji-Simran' scene from DDLJ here?" Fubu and me shook our head in excitement and audience whistled away. Thank you Lord for gifting him sudden intelligence. Otherwise we could have flopped the show knowing we had no backup as a script! 

"But there will be a change. Dialogues will be slight changed with improvisation so will be the scene"  Fubu explained.

"For example ?"  I asked with my eyebrows raised up in doubt. "Like you'll play the role of Raj (Hero) and I'll play Simran (Heroine) while Baba will play Bauji (Antagonist kinda)"  responded Fubu which made Rannu flash his 1000 watt  stupid smile. We nodded cause this sounded fun.

"Okay. For a refreshing change, let bromance conquer .... !!"

We started enacting our play. Ranveer stood near Arjun holding his wrist, trying to separate him away from Raj, i.e poor me !

"Simran, I won't let you go with this idiot! He can't earn anything for himself. How will he look after you ? How will he keep you alive and safe ? You deserve someone thousand times better than him. Not this irresponsible idiot. Come with us"  Rannu acted so fabulously and started pulling Fubu towards himself. Now natural acting is gonna pay the other one, wrist marks tomorrow.

"But Bauji! I would keep your daughter safe and secure all my life. I'll let no harm even come close to her let alone touch her "  I said with shattered voice. Audience were still and kept quiet. A rather annoying 'dhak-dhak' bgm played along the line to create a space for suspense. I was seriously acting my part.

After all the nonsense, Fubu spoke.

"Bauji....mujhe mat jaane dijiye. Bauji main aapke bagair jee nahi sakta!"

Plot twist.

He was amazing. This made the crowd ROFL! He was motioned by Rannu to see the gender change mistake he did in his dialogue! "Mera matlab, main nahi jaana chahti iss Raj ke saath!

 I acted like it affected me. "Hain ? Simar you love me na ? Hum pyaar karte hain ek dusre se, sacha freaking pyaar! We gotta fight for our love ladki" I outdone my role as a lover who was almost on the verge of going mad.

"You go with him beta! I now understand the depth of your love. Khush raho, phoolo phalo aur bhaad mein jaao! "  said Rannu while the last part he muttered under his breath, loud enough for everyone to shatter into uproar.

He was literally pushing Fubu to go with me. Atlast they both remained in their ever loving bromance mode in the midst of a stage enact play. Can't they seriously act? "Bauji, I love you more. I'm more comfortable having you around than Raj! Please Bauji. Don't let him snatch me away from you!"  said Fubu with pleading eyes. I mean who the hell wants to know her comfort with her dearest father ?

"Ok ! Doneee!! You better be with your Oh-so loving bauji and stay a virgin all your life! I'll find someone else on my own. " I spoke in melodramatic tone. With this the entire house came Rofling down. We brought the whole place down with our master skills! Kudos to us.

*******

After a thunderous round of applause, it was Alia's performance up next.

"Please put your hands together for none other than sabki beautiful princess who rules all of our hearts especially of someone special..... (winking at Sid*)....my loveliest bestieeeee... Aliaaaa Bhaaaattttt !!!!!!" Rannu shouted with joy. Cheering got to another level.

Mine was a mixed act. It had two three song performances mashed up together from mine and other hit film songs. Then came the much awaited aerial act on the songs Ishq Bulaava and Paani Da. It was rather graceful and stunning and came out more good than I ever thought.

At the end of my act, when I was back from literally hanging on air, to the ground. I decided to go down the stage to the audience where the biggie-wigs sat and do some fun.

When they played 'D se Dance'  I went near VD and we did our signature step of the song. We got insane with our steps and nagged our fellow friends to join. Therefore we had literally our whole gang dancing up to life except Sid as he felt quite hesitant. Quite usual.

To give an exclusive peek into how Queen's of Bollywood shared a rapport, I gestured the song to be changed into something more desi. I had deepika and kangana dancing with me for 'London thumakda'. That was a hit.

Now we couldn't ignore the King Khans of our fraternity. So when we had a shift to 'Jumme Ki raat', we made sure to invite Salman and SRK. No wonder they still rule the hearts of millions, cause they were so sporting and amazing. It was so better to join other's into your celebration. Everyone had a wide smile adorning their face.

It was a night to remember and cherish. For the fabulous bond we shared and the friendships we nourished. For being grateful to the love and support coming our way. This had to be my best ever Filmfare year !

NOTE : Ahem....the show has still not ended. Sorry for dragging it but I want to live my dream of Alia doing all of this and more through these chapters.  So since I myself hasn't watched DDLJ fully and I'm not aware of the real Bauji-Simran scene, please bare up with me. It's purely my imagination.

Till I come back from the trip, stay happy and cheerful. Don't forget to re-read and share this book with others. Save it in your library.

Love till infinity,

Jemi :)
