Chapter 1
“Next Door Girl”
Getting down from the bus she was looking for an auto, was anxious to reach college on time. Finally she finds one soon, bhaiya thora tej chalaona plz or yeh music thora badana toh gana sunna h, one can get all sort of updates be it news, views or entertainment from this little walky-talky she said to herself!
This was advertisement for an audition of a bombay based production house, oh I have heard this before may be in bits & pieces, it is today only 23rd/ oct/ 01! Hmmm not bad to catch up with something so exciting, she murmured!!
Here I reached my college, rushing to get her design instruments from the locker in basement she barged into the classroom. Luckily it’s not started as yet “ oh God I am saved!
After the class was over they were headed towards canteen, let’s have a cup of coffee!! Rinky was a good friend and everyone could see it, they were usually together be it roaming around in Nift, giving submissions or attending backdoor shows, seen as a team already. While talking about some usual stuff over the coffee she shares about the audition, it’s good to attend these events after all building good network is all that is required right, is it nearby asked Rinky?? Yes Hilton hotel, half an hour from here I guess, anyway we have two hours before we make it to the resource center she replied. Ok let’s go, without wasting time they moves out of the college to takes auto n reach their destination.
She was dressed in a salvar/ kameez with silver vertical rows,the color was a matter of debate among her friends somewhere between mouve and onion.A bag filled with sketch books & colors and other stationary stuff. Rinky was in mustard T-shirt and beige trousers. It was more of a fun-filled event for them as they have been attending many others similar ones’like back door fashion shows etc. no preparation no hesitation, that’s what those days were all about.
