"Just smile and look pretty for the photographs." "And then ourjob is done." "That's it!" " Thank you." " Janet!" " Yes Bajaj, coming." "Good party, isn't it?" "Mukesh Tyagi." "I run an ad agency." "Talent Unlimited and you?" "Meghna Mathur..." "You are a model, right?" "No, not as yet but hopefully..." "Come on, you look professional." "Send me some of your photographs."

"Janet, Meet Mr..." "Mukesh Tyagi." "He runs an ad agency." "Yes." "Talent Unlimited." ""Send me your pictures."" "Or "drop into my office."" "He says he has a lot of contacts." "He has been doing the party rounds since the past five years." "Listen, fraud..." " ...with those old lines, you won't catch any fish." " Go from here." "What's the problem with you small town girls?" "Anyone who speaks halfway decent English, can get anywhere with you." "Come on, let's go." "You want to make contacts." "Janet, Reema, Meghna." "Dolly, that's your 15,000." "I've cut five for the advance." " There are 10,000 in the packet." " Okay, fine." "And here's your 18,000." "Don't ask for conveyance." "We've got a party like this after a month." "Get it." "And Meghna..." "It's yourfirst time so I'm paying you 12,000." "What are you looking at?" "Here take it." "Don't want it?" "No... but... money?" "You're paid for the work you did." "Work?" "Didn't you pose for the camera?" "People like having girls at such parties." "Mr. Bajaj is an event manager he contacts me for the models." "It's like this pretty girls increase the glamour quotient for such parties." "High society calls this eye candy, understood?" "Here take this." "Here." "And here, Reema." " What's this?" "Where have you been?" " What do I do?" "Don't you want your money?" "What should I do?" "The world of glamour is strange you are so desperate to achieve success that the difference between what's right and wrong begins to blur." "To be honest, there's barely any time to think about it." "As the date for the portfolio got closer my hopes began to diminish." "Meghna darling, why are you so tense?" "Everything will work out, dear." "I promise." "How is it possible, Rohit?" "Only six days to go for the portfolio and I still don't have the money." "You know what he said..." "If I don't pay the entire amount then I forfeit the advance." "And I still have 30,000 to go." "Meghna, if you don't mind..." "Shomu's offer is still open." "I don't know." "You could give it a try." "It's worth a shot." "Lingerie?" ""Beautiful lady."" ""Drive me crazy."" ""Beautiful lady."" "Janet, show some more skin." "I've shown enough for what I've been paid." "Get it?" "Fine, let's get on with it." ""Come on."" ""Beautiful lady."" ""You drive me crazy."" ""You drive me crazy."" "Don't feel shy." "It's weird for the first ten seconds after that, you will get used to it." "Come on madam." "Take off your gown." "There are other models waiting for the shoot." "Quickly, there are three more to go." "Come on madam, make it quick." "Just feel free, do not stress." " Take this." " Meghna, relax." "Archana... very good." " Have some tea, you will feel better." " No." "Okay, left profile now." " Janet, your cheque." " Thank you." "Meghna, that's yours." "You remember my commission, right?" "Yes, but Shomu are you sure this advertisement won't be released here?" "I told you that it won't get released here." "This advertisement is only for Sri Lanka and Bangladesh." "Is that clear?" "Don't worry." "You've done the advertisement now, so..." " Now chin up." " Just have a smoke and chill." "Thanks." "I don't smoke." "Meghna, don't think so much." "The lesser you think, the more you will make." "Thanks Janet." "Oh yes." "Tomorrow is your portfolio shoot, isn't it?" " Yes." "Thanks." " All the best." "I know you'll rock." "Okay guys, let's get this done." "Alright... just look up a bit." "Relax, yes." "Okay." "Now look at me." "Smile." "Yes, nice." "That's good." "Look at me and chin down." "Chin down." " Chin down." " Chin slightly down." "Relax now." " Okay." "Do it again!" " Sorry." "Smile... yes." "Much better." "Okay, great." "Look at me." "That's a nice smile." "Hold that." "Hold that pose." "Superb!" "Anisha, didn't I mention that..." "I haven't seen a striking impressive face recently." "And I finally found one." "She is unbelievable." " Irene." " Yes, ma'am." " Send in the Kartik girl, please." " Okay." "Meghna Mathur!" "That's me!" "So you want to be a model?" "No ma'am." "A super model." "Ambitious." "Do you know the city gets two hundred girls everyday who aspire to be a model." "I know." "But... how many of them get a chance to sit across you?" " Kartik was right, you have spunk." " Thank you." "But that will not suffice." "What did you tell me your name was?" " Meghna..." " Yes, Meghna." "Meghna, in the fashion industry even a little talent will do." "But if you have the wrong attitude nothing will work." "You have attitude." "Use it with prudence or it will be mistaken for arrogance." "That won't happen." "Really!" "Yes." "Won't you be there to guide me?" "I like your confidence." "What are you doing tomorrow?" "Nothing yet." "Not good?" "Oh, horrible." "Actually, I don't know a lot about wines." "Don't worry there are very few over here who do." "At least you are honest." "Ross, two glasses of Merlot, please." " Try this, you'll like it." " Okay." "Still the same." "You've either tried wine for the first time or had a lot of it." "That's why you can't tell the difference." " By the way, I am Abhijeet Sarin." " I know you, everybody knows you." " I am Meghna Mathur." " Now I know you." "Want to try something more interesting?" " Yes..." " Come, let's go." " Okay." "Come." "Cheers." "These models are so thin." "I've heard they do drugs?" "I don't know." "Not all of them, maybe a few." "And guess what, Sheetal..." "I heard that designer Varun Ramani's wife is... having an affair with her gym instructor." "Then you know the latest." "Rajan Sodhi has hidden cameras in his wife's bedroom." " And?" " And guess what, she got caught." "What are you saying?" "I just don't understand." "How can people get into such situations?" "Does she know this?" "You seem quite intelligent." "So what's this craze for modelling?" "You too are intelligent and are also in the same business." "So the comparison is with me..." "It's not like that..." "It doesn't matter." "I judge people by their ambition." "Really, so what do you think of me?" "You've hardly told me anything about yourself..." "What can I say?" "Like thousands of girls..." "I too want to be a successful model." " But there's a small difference." " What's that?" "That I'm better than the rest." "That you are." " Come, let's go." " Yes." "You know you're very lucky, Meghna..." "What?" "You've been meeting these people..." "Kartik..." "Sarin." "The formula to this business is... the right timing, knowing the right people and the right publicity." "I've thought about it." "I will feature you in Leena Mehta's show." " Really?" "Yeah." " It is a big show." "Everything is happening so quickly don't get overconfident." "This is just the first step." "Everything depends on what you make of this opportunity." "And, where you want to go from here." "I know where I want to reach." " Shona..." " Ritu?" "Why is she calling you?" " Shona my phone..." " You told me she doesn't call you." "Shona, give me my phone..." " Why did you lie to me?" " Leave my phone." " Why is she calling you?" "You fool!" "You lied to me?" " She needs help." " Shona, give me my phone." " Why?" " What are you doing?" "Are you the only one who can help her?" " Shona..." " You fool, you are doing it again." "You are lying to me." " Let me talk to her." "I need to talk to her." " Shona, leave it." "Shona!" "You fool!" "I have a show tomorrow." "Come on, Shona." "I told you there is nothing like that." "She just needs help." "This is my Avant-garde collection." "It's completely different from my earlier work." "I mean, this collection is inspired by my childhood memories." "My mother, my grandmother!" "You will see influences of those images." "I don't know how it is going to be accepted, but it is very special to me." "What's this?" "Made in Bangkok." "At least she should have taken off the label before the show." "She gets it from the Indra market in Bangkok... and calls it her Avant-garde collection." "Some designer." "Darling, you are looking beautiful." "Look here..." " Slowly, it hurts." " Sorry." "Salim, darling." "I am the show stopper." "Come overfor my make-up or should I stop the show?" " Can you just finish it by yourself?" " It is okay." "Thank you." "Yes, darling." " You look sad." " Not at all." "Would you like to go back?" "No." "Let'sjust do your make-up." "Please, show me." "Show me." "Next... next." " This?" " Yes." "Print this." " Okay." " Thank you, bye." "Okay, ma'am." "No problem." "Chandu, why are you clicking a nobody?" "Fool, do you know how big a socialite she is?" "Socialite?" "Once upon a time she was a B-grade actress." "Today she is a self proclaimed socialite and designer." "Are you kidding me?" "She is at every function:" "weddings, parties, awards..." "She doesn't even spare baby showers." "Are you kidding me?" "Baby shower?" "Yes, even baby showers." "Delete her pictures." "Terrible!" " Oh hi!" " How are you?" "I am fine." "What brings you here?" "Well, I came to meet Leena." "Networking, you know." "I got to know that it is yourfirst show so..." " I came to wish you luck." " Thanks." " All the best." " Thanks." "Thank you." " And..." " Thanks." "Don't be nervous, you'll bejust fine, okay?" "Pooja... isn't that Madhur Bhandarkar?" "What's he doing with Rita?" "He's probably doing his research." "He's making a movie on fashion." "He makes realistic films." "He won't even spare the world of fashion." "Now remember, I want a lot of drama." " Is that clear?" " Look at the clothes." "They are so dramatic." "No expression." "I just want you to look straight, look strong no smiles." "Am I clear?" "Binal, walk tall and beautiful." " Meghna." "This is a huge show for you." " Yes." "I want lots of attitude." "Do you understand that?" " Yes... yes, ma'am." " And Shonali..." "Shonali." "Yes, yes." "I know, I am listening." "Alright." "Great." "Okay girls, let's go out there and kill them." "Are you ready?"

"You and diet?" " You know..." "Rohit, right?" " Yes." " You know... when we were in college..." " Yes." "During college she used to carry a box of sugar candy." "Sugar!" "Calories!" "We all used laugh at her." "Should I reveal your secrets?" " Oh... no secrets, okay?" " Okay." " Besides I am very upset with you." " Why?" "You are a model now and you didn't even bother to call." "Rahul, you know this business." "You are an A list designer and I'm a struggling B list model." "How could I call?" " You know it is not like that with me, right?" " Yes, I know..." " Give me a call." " I will." "Okay, by the way meet my friend, Meghna." " Hi..." " Nice meeting you." " Rahul Arora." " Yes, of course." "I've heard..." " You were great on the ramp." "Good confidence." "Good presence." "Right?" " Thank you." "Thank you so much." "Bye." " I will." "Bye." " You know him?" "You never told us." " Yes." "Well..." " Hi Christine." " Hi, Christine." "Well done, Meghna." "Such good confidence in yourfirst show..." " ..." "I'm really impressed." " Really?" "I am sure, you'll go a long way." "Bye." "Did you hearthat Meghna darling?" "You will go a long way." "Very well done." "Very well done." " I told you so." " Imagine." "After many trials and troubles I reached a place where I could see my dream taking shape clearly." "But myjourney ahead went through strange phases." "Old relationships though near seemed far away." "And new relationships started growing closer." "This restaurant is really posh, Meghna." "We are going to get a huge bill." "Just relax and order." " It's very..." " Its okay." " Hey Rahul!" "Hi!" "How are you?" " Hi!" " How are you doing?" " Very well." " Do you know, Meghna..." "Manav..." " Hi." " Rohit..." " Hi." " Hi... this is Ashish." " Hi." " Hi." " Nice meeting you." "Why don't you guys join us?" "Yes, sure." "Sure." " Sure." " Okay." " Excuse me." "Two chairs, please." " Yes." " Yes." " Sure, sir." " You haven't changed a bit." " Why do you say that?" "I wasjust being polite and you actuallyjoined us." " How rude." " I can't believe this." "You know, throughout college, I used to foot her canteen bills." "So I thought it was payback time today." " To say..." " By the way..." "Unfortunately, it's Meghna's treat." " Oh, I am sorry." " Yes, this is my treat." "Come on, let's order starters guys." " Hi..." " Hi." " Can I ask you something?" " Sure" "Do you have a brother or cousin who looks just like you do." " Sorry, bad luck." " No..." " Oh no!" "Listen, you do know that... the venue for tomorrows rehearsal has changed, don't you?" "It's Four Seasons now." " Anyways, thanks for telling me." " Oh no, not at all." " Bye." " Bye, take care." " Bye." " See you." "Bye." "Santosh..." "It's two in the morning, Meghna." "You've been coming in late every night." "You should be a little more responsible." "Even the neighbours are complaining." "This can't continue here." "I'm sorry, aunt, but my job keeps me..." "I know what it keeps you at." "Divya brought this to show us from the neighbors." "What influence will it have on her?" "Meghna, we can't let your career be a negative influence on Divya." "I suggest you look for alternate accommodation." "Santosh, it's so late in the night..." "She doesn't need to leave immediately." "She can leave after a couple of days." "It's okay aunt..." "I'll leave right away." " Janet." " Hi, how are you?" " Hi... sorry to call you so late." " What?" "I'm on my way to Goa." "Is everything all right?" "Anything urgent, message me, darling." "No." "Nothing at all." " Okay, yes." "Bye." " Okay." "Bye." "See you." "I left home in a huff but I didn't know where to go." "Janet is in Goa and Rohit stays with his parents." "I don't know anyone else in Mumbai." "I'm really sorry but..." "There is no need for an explanation." "I'm glad that you called." "It's only fortonight." "I'll look for another place tomorrow." "Meghna, this is Mumbai." "You may find God but not accommodation." "That too, a single woman a model, no way." "Yes, there is one place though where you can share an apartment." " Where?" " Here." "Actually, I was looking for a room mate." "I don't have regular work and the rent is too high." "So, if you don't mind." "We can share this apartment." "But Manav, both of us in the same apartment won't it be awkward?" "Come on Meghna, this isn't Chandigarh." "I mean, no one cares." "Rent, provisions..." "we'll share the expenses." "We can share everything but the bedrooms will be separate, right?" "Of course!" "They will be separate, you can be sure of that." " Okay." " Okay." "Okay, great!" "Welcome home." "Anisha, I'm sorry I had to call you." "Where is Shonali?" "The entire unit has been waiting fortwo hours there is no sign of her." "This has become a habit." " Please, help me." "Please do something now." " Oh no!" "Tony, give me two minutes." " Shonali..." " She is in there." "Shonali... come out of there." "Come out, right now!" "What's your problem Anisha?" "The entire unit has been waiting fortwo hours..." "It's a big ad film shoot, for heaven sake." "And you are back to this awful habit." "You better buck up, Shonali." "This is the third complaint." "Our clients pay a lot of money for your time." "It's only because of my agency and my reputation that's the reason you stand here today." "If you don' take control of yourself then there are several others who are eager to replace you." "Got it?" " Don't worry..." " Megha, Gauri..." "If she misbehaves, call me up again." ""Temptation next."" ""Temptation next."" "No... don't argue Koko." "I know exactly what's going to be good on you, okay?" "Trust me." "Vinay, isn't this a bit over the top?" "I mean... just look at this." "You are about to do Bobby Chopra's film in Europe." " And today everything is about looking glamorous." "Okay?" " Yes, but." "You guys do very realistic films and..." "Yes, I mean, this is mainstream cinema and you have to look hot." "I am the only one who can make you look hot." "Okay?" "Period." "I don't know, Vinay." " According to my character graph, I mean..." " Dear, no..." "Ranveer, just help me." "Just look." "Koko, the amount the producer is spending on your clothes... exceeds the total budget of this film production." "So if you're done arguing, can we rehearse?" "The entire unit has been waiting fortwo hours and a lot of people work on daily wages." " Wages." " Okay, Vinay, whatever." "Come on, roll the camera." " Its fine, I surrender." " Baby, trust me." "You'll rock." " Really?" " You doubt Vinay Khosla?" "Come on, baby." "Come on, take it." "Hey Manav, whom are you paired with in Anamika's show?" "I have been paired with Rajneesh." "Not anymore." "What do you mean?" "Now your entry is along with me." "We open the show together now." "Really?" "But how come?" "Because our choreographer believes that we make a great pair." "And I agree."

"Where are you?" "At home." "Sarin wants to see you immediately." "Right now?" "No questions Meghna." "Please go over right now." "Okay, I'll go." "Bye." " Meghna, please come." " Oh... come." "Anisha told me..." "I had to rush..." "to come to see you... in the office." "I've brought my portfolio along." "I also have it on CD." "If you want to have a look." "There's no need forthis." "Would you like to be a show stopper?" "It's for Vinay Khosla." "The show is in four days." "You think you'll be able to do it?" " Vinay Khosla?" " Yes." " Oh my God, you mean 'The Vinay Khosla?" "'" " That's right." "Yes, of course." "Thank you." "for the first time," " I don't have a single Bollywood starlet in the front row." " So sad." "Half of them are doing shows and..." " ...the other half are abroad." " Oh what a pity?" "What's happening with the new girl?" "Is she ready?" " Just two minutes." " No, no." "You go and check." "Go." "Go!" " Okay." "I've got a very huge offer." "Ladies and gentlemen, kindly take your seat." "The show is about to begin." "Darling, you look gorgeous." "And you are biased." "No, no Meghna." "It goes over." "But it looks so much cooler here." "She is an absolute new girl." "And a show stopper?" " And handsome looks." "Handsome looks, okay?" " Okay." " I just hope she is good." "I just hope." " Okay." " I am so stressed." "I am so stressed." "This is not funny." " Relax." "Sarin's recommendation and all that." "Anyway, I'll just... where is Rohit?" " Just you know..." " Where is Rohit?" "Meghna, you should... because..." " Meghna, I was telling you..." " Rohit." "Oh what the... who the hell has done it like this?" "It is supposed to go above the head, no?" " Rohit..." "Duffer..." " Yes..." "You know how particular I am." "Actually..." "It's not his fault." "I told him." "You?" "I thought that if..." "Hold it." "You thought?" "Darling, you are a model." "You don't need to use your brains, okay?" "Spare me the horror." " Fix the lousy thing, Rohit." " Yes, sir." " Yes, sir." "It's such an insignificant thing..." "What did you say?" "An insignificant thing?" "This is the show stopper outfit." "Do you understand that?" "The media will be watching." "All of them." "And even if you sell yourself, you can't afford this dress." "Alright?" "And listen, I really don't care about your relationship with Sarin." "I don't want supermodel nonsense." "My relationship with Sarin?" " You have no right to say that." " Oh yeah?" "Really?" "I don't have a right?" "In my show?" "Do you even know, who I am?" "Vinay Khosla..." "and nobody talks to me like that." "Rohit, tell Christina I am replacing this girl right now." "Change the whole thing." "Send four girls in the end." "Change the finale." "I don't care." "And you!" "Out of this outfit and leave!" "Out!" " But sir..." "No... no..." " What!" " Nothing, sir." "Come on, now all of you get on with it." "Come on, back to work." "No wonder we models are treated like hangers." "Okay girls, listen." "Quickly listen." "There's been a change, alright?" "I want the last four girls to end the sequence." "The last four girls being Geeta..." "you right?" " What about that young girl?" " Don't know about her." "Thank you." "Excuse me." "Sir, there is a problem backstage." "I think you should come." "Okay." "Excuse me." "What the hell." "She has ruined the whole show." " What's the problem, Vinay?" " She's arrogant." "Why don't you ask him?" " Don't believe me, then..." " Alright." " Sarin..." "Meghna!" "Meghna, you still have those bangles..." "We need them back..." "I am sorry." "I am sorry." " I am really sorry about this." " It's okay." "How could he think that I..." "Calm down, Meghna." "People say stuff when they're angry." "You could've controlled yourself." "So it was my fault?" "Do you even know what he said?" "Listen, I know it wasn't your fault." "Besides he is a veteran designer and you are new to modelling." "Does that mean he can say whatever he wants?" "So what if he is a reputed designer?" "I'm no average model either." "Come on, I know, Meghna." "You'll never understand." "Tell me Anisha when is Shonali's contract up for renewal?" "There is time yet." "Five months I think, why?" "Terminate her contract." "Right now!" "But Sarin, we can't do that." "Why not?" "Panache is my company and I can do whatever I want." "But... it's a contract." "I mean it hasn't expired as yet." "Give Shonali full compensation in fact give her a little more so that there are no complaints." " But..." " No questions." "Just do it." "But on what grounds?" "Come on, Anisha." "You are smart." "You'll think of something." "I am sure." "I don't understand, why, Anisha?" "Why?" "I warned you a couple of times earlier but you didn't listen." "Three official complaints!" "Ultimately professionalism counts." "Come on Anisha, I know this profession." "Three complaints and I am out?" "It's notjust that, Shonali." "Your lifestyle your boyfriends your addiction and misbehaviour at parties." "It's affecting the brands, especially Panache." "This was bound to happen someday." "Anyway..." "I didn't want to be unfair." "The compensation is higher." "If there is anything that you want to add to the termination clause, go ahead." "Just one question." "Who has replaced me?" "Meghna Mathur." "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen and my friends from the media." "This is the moment we've all been waiting for." "Allow me to introduce to you, the sensational new face of Panache..." "Meghna Mathur." " So glamorous." "So nervous." " I know." " But he was so good..." " Excuse me." "I am going to take her away for a minute." " Yes, sure." "Sure." " I'll just be back." " Yes, sure." " Hi." " I want to introduce you to..." " Avantika..." "Meet Meghna Mathur." " Yes." " This is Avantika Sarin." " Oh hi." " Hello." "Nice to meet you." " Lovely to meet you Meghna." "All the very best and welcome to Panache." "Thank you so much." "In no time my dreams turned into reality and they reached the sky." "My new image as a super model everywhere gave me a new high." "I felt like the whole world was interested in no one but me." "I got lost in myself." "Knowing what I wear..." "what I eat... what I think... possibly made people think that they know me." "I too was lost in myself." "But I..." "I just had one obsession." "What would be my next move to attain more success..." " What's so different in the soup?" " I have no idea." "On the salad." " Hey guys." "I am really sorry." " Hi." " Hi..." " Hi." "You are so late, baby." "You knew this dinner was planned, right?" "Yes, but the campaign is about to begin and you know how it is." "I am sorry guys, I'll be right back from the loo in five minutes." "There she goes." "Come, come." "Sit, sit." "We'll be here." "Hi Shonali." "Congratulations... for Panache." "Thanks, Shonali." "Look, I hope you understand, there's nothing personal." " I didn't know that, its going to..." " Don't worry." "Neither did I..." "It's this industry you never know when the designs are outdated." " No thanks." " Smart, but be careful." "You're still new." "Everything feels good in the beginning the novelty eventually wears out." "I can see it in your eyes." "You will neither recognise yourself nor anyone else." "Be very careful." "Thanks Shonali, but I recognise..." "Myself... and others as well." "We'll see." " It's really taking..." " As I told you, Meghna, this is just the beginning." " Yes..." " See, how things go." " Hi, Mr. Sarin..." " Nice to meet you." "Our new face of Panache, Meghna Mathur." " Meghna, that is Manohar Grover." " Hello." " Hi." " Hello." " Meet Mr. Stevens." "That's his beautiful wife." " Hello." " Hello." " Hi." " Mrs. Chang, Meghna Mathur." " Pleased to meet you." " How are you doing?" " That's Mr. Harper." " Hi." " Hello." " Nice to meet you." " He's a whiz kid." "Oh!" "Cheers." "Alright, then." "If we wait any longer..." "I'll have to head to office from here only." " Let's go." " Yes." "Come." "No, that's it." "You can stop here." " Thank you." " You are welcome." "I'll get down." " Thank you, good night." " Good night, bye." " Bye." "Bye." "I know..." "I know." "Even I know the time." " Meghna..." " Look Manav not now, I am really tired, okay?" "Meghna, I was worried." "I tried calling you all night." "The phone was on silent and in the bag." "I don't know." "Oh God, Manav..." "You knew I was with Mr. Sarin at a party." "Listen, but you could have sent me a text message." " I would have if I could have." " You are right." "Meghna, this is the fourth time." "I am a model too." "I know." "Exactly!" "You're a model too, so I thought you would understand... but obviously not." "There were so many people at the party..." "Sarin was introducing me to the media, so I was..." "I couldn't." "And you forgot that someone's waiting for you..." "Manav, these are really important people." "You won't understand the pressures." " Really?" "So make me." " How do I?" "You aren't in that league." "You are still struggling." "Meghna, I am really happy that you are in the big league." "But have you thought about the price you're paying for that?" "A lecture at four in the morning!" "I am lecturing you because not everybody can handle success." "Is that so?" "Then tell me why are those who preach about success only those who haven't tasted it yet?" "Because they don't run after it insanely." "And what if Mr. Sarin were promoting you?" "Why would he?" "He's promoting you, isn't he?" "Who knows what he is getting in return..." "I can't believe you just said that." "How typical, Manav." "I don't know why, but I thought you were different." "I'd also thought the same about you." ""Something is special." "It's close to me.""

" Just go through it once." " No way." "No way." "It's your agency's contract." "I trust you." "Where do I need to sign?" "Okay." "On all these pages, initials." " What?" " And here... full signature." "It is a tough task ahead for you." "I am warning you." "What's the point?" "I am the best." "And you know that." " Hello." " Hi." " Oh hi." " Listen, I am sending you a car, come over immediately." "Right now?" " No questions do as I say." " Okay." " Sarin?" " Yes." "Sign it later." "Thanks." "Come." "Come..." "This way." "Come."

"My daughter mentioned... that these fashion designers don't get married." "Is it true?" "So are you also..." "Aunt, these days, people sayjust about anything." "How is Dolly, your elder daughter?" "The one that got married in London." "I heard she is divorced and now she's living with you." "Is it true?" "Come on, let's go." "You'll run out of answers but their questions won't stop." " Mom..." " Yes..." "It's your life, your decision." "Mom?" "Rahul, I'm nervous." "I never thought I'd be the show stopper for such a big show." " And today thanks to you..." " Enough now." "Now don't get into your teenage drama queen mode..." "You very well know that you can do it or you wouldn't have agreed." "Rahul... you know..." "I agreed because I can never say no to you."

"Shonali is really disturbed." "No, I don't think Shonali Gujral will do something like this for publicity." "It's very unfortunate, but it is only an accident." "There is no need to hype it and create an issue of it." "Down with fashion shows!" "Don't ruin our culture!" "As far as Vinay Khosla's show is concerned... whether this was an accident or publicity stunt..." "Only Shonali can confirm." "You havejust seen what Meghna Mathur had to say." "She herself is a model the same Meghna Mathur, who is the brand ambassador of Panache." "Could this be a personal conflict?" "Or anything else?" "Let's see again, what Meghna Mathur has to say about her rival Shonali Gujral." "Whether this was an accident or publicity stunt..." "Only Shonali can confirm." "Only Shonali can confirm."

"He's gone off to Chennai..." " ...to do a show with Manish." " Lovely." " Your drink." " Thank you." "Why can't you come with me on this three city tour?" "Abhi, after all, it is a Panache event." "I mean, we will be together too." "What's wrong with you, Meghna?" "You know it is not possible." "Where did this come from?" "There's something I want to tell you." "Go on..." " I am pregnant." " That's all." "Not to worry, it can be handled." "And what if I tell you that I want to keep the baby." "Sure..." "I am okay with it." "I don't have a problem but Anisha might have a problem." "You have signed a contract." "Abhi, at times you are really funny." "I wasjust kidding and you took it seriously." "I am a really successful model." "I won't ruin my career." "Come, I'll make you another drink." "Yes, my love." "I'm on my way home." "No." "I dined with the client." "Have the children slept?" "Yes, see you soon." "Page 20, clause 22 A."

"Officially you can neither get married nor get pregnant." "Till the contract is valid." "You know what..." "I don't care!" "Whom are you calling?" "Sarin?" "It is no use, my dear." "Sarin put in these clauses in the contract himself." "Are you okay?" "I am fine." "I went back to being a middle class girl for a while." "But I am fine." "I am fine." "I am fine." "Whose pregnancy do you want to get terminated?" "Mine." " Are you married?" "Okay." " No." " Just fill up this form." " Can I borrow your pen?" "Stop!" "Stop!" "Madam, you are driving without the seat belt." "License?" "Listen, I don't have much time, so..." "Alright." "Take the car aside." "Sir, license." "Surekha, take the test." "I am not going to take that dirty test, okay?" "Who knows how many people have put it in their mouth." "Listen madam." "It doesn't matter whether you are a model, an actor or anybody else..." "I don't care." "Surekha, take the test." "Our daughter has done us proud." "The one who climbed the stairs of success so soon." "Why are you crying?" "Look, your daughter is now a super model." "Now our neighbours will come with flowers, to a proud mother." "Meghna, your reckless behaviour is not only damaging your reputation but Panache's too." "I know you are upset." "But learn to keep your personal life apart from your professional life." "Really?" "Tell me something, Abhi." "What about our relationship is it personal or professional?" "Don't worry." "You don't have to answer that." "It is time to get truly professional Mr. Sarin." " Yes..." " Had you been to his last season?" " No, I haven't, but I..." "I am telling you, the food should..." " No thank you." " Yes, she is very charming." " I will." " Cheers." "That's not fair." " Lovely!" " Exactly." " Hey, I'll be right back." " Sure." "How I managed to put this show together." " It was hell..." " Whatever, third big launch of the year." "Thank you very much." " Tony..." " Hi." "Congratulations." "I am so sorry I came late." "No, it's alright." "You made it at least." " Cheers." " Bye." " Excuse me." " Yes." " See you." "Johnny, hi." " Hi Meghna." " Abhi..." "I think you have taken my words too seriously." "You have become so professional that you are uneasy greeting me." "Behave yourself." "You are drunk." "I am drunk?" " Hello, Meghna." " Mrs. Sarin." "So, how are you now?" "I saw all that drama on television." "What happened?" "You look so stressed out." "Didn't you tell her?" "Actually, I wasn't well." "I was in a clinic." "I had an abortion." "Abhi will give you the details." "After all... he paid the bills." "Oh!" "She got offended." "I'm telling you again Meghna, it's still not too late." "Avantika is very upset but I think we can handle it." "Just meet her once and apologise." "If she forgives you, everything will be sorted." "I should apologise to her?" "Are you kidding me?" "Who is she, Anisha?" "Just some lousy trophy wife..." "I don't need her." "Of course, you need her, Meghna." "You're in this position due to Panache." "You are signing brands courtesy of Panache." "You need them!" "Wrong, Anisha." "I am the freaking face of Panache." "I don't need Panache, Panache needs me." "Okay?" "Anything else?" " Yes." " What the hell is going on, Anisha?" " Where the hell have you been?" " Shut up!" "I just read the paper." "Come on, Meghna." "This had to happen." "I told you so." "Oh, cut the crap, Anisha." "Gauri Anand is from your agency." "I've been replaced." "Don't be such a lousy woman." "There's no need to get personal, Meghna." "Personal?" "I can't believe you did this to me." "Aren't you ashamed of yourself?" "When we replaced Shonali you didn't ask me this." "I really think you should..." "The sound of a shattered dream never hurts as much as it's lasting echo." "My career started falling like a pack of cards and I stood there, a mere spectator." "Everything changed..." "home, relationships and along with them I changed too." "Commitments, sincerity, professionalism..." "I ran away from all of them and reached a place so loud that I couldn't even hear myself." "What I was doing, why I was doing it..." "I had no clue at all." "Shonali was right, I couldn't even recognize myself." "Go easy, Meghna." "You've had a lot to drink." "You're saying that, Janet!" "Look, I don't know how to lecture." "But I can say this much, you're ruining yourself." "You are right." "You don't know how to lecture, so please don't try." "Meghna, everyone I meet is talking about your arrogance." "It is not arrogance, baby." "It is attitude." "It's important to have an attitude to be successful." " Okay?" " Oh, really?" "What about unprofessionalism?" "Is that necessary too?" "Listen, if you continue to behave like this no one will want to work with you." "Unprofessional?" "Did you just call me unprofessional, Janet?" "What do you know about professionalism?" "You don't become a model by doing a couple of small assignments." "Listen..." "I know I didn't make it big." "But I have spent more time in this industry." "I know why your reputation is getting ruined." "That's why I'm telling you straighten up before everything crumbles." "Straighten up?" "How?" "Should I beg Sarin or Anisha?" "I know what I can do." "I should marry a rich gay designer like you." "How about that?" "Leave." "Just leave." " Hey." " Hi babes." "Where are you?" "We all are waiting for you." "Come to Dhiren's party fast now." "Yes, I'll be there." " Give me 20 minutes." " Okay." ""Charm."" ""Charm."" ""It's the charm of the body."" ""It's the charm of the body."" ""It's the ladder to success."" ""Charm.""

"I came back home to Chandigarh but I could never be myself." "Leaving all my relationships behind..." "I descended into my inner darkness." "I neither felt happy nor sad." "The psychiatrist advised that nothing is possible until..." "I rediscover myself and my inner self confidence." "But as easy as it is to lose oneself it is even more difficult to forgive oneself to find oneself again." "Have you heard anything about Shonali?" "I heard that she's run away from rehab." "No one knows her whereabouts." "Yes, that's really sad." "Hey Rahul." "Who is your show stopper for the Delhi show?" "I heard thatjust like Vinay Khosla, you too have roped in a film star." "No, no." "I like film stars." "But if there was a model..." " ...for a show stopper for this show... that's best." " Yes." "You know I... really miss a good model." " Like Shonali..." " And, Meghna." "Meghna." "Dear the one who loses isn't the one who falls." "But a failure is one who still doesn't rise to the occasion." "My daughter is not a loser." "I'm sorry, my dear." "It was my fault that I didn't trust my daughter's dream..." " ...and how high it could take her." " Papa..." "I had trust in my daughter and I still do." "Go ahead, pursue your dream again." "Yes, my dear." "Go back, my dear." "You will achieve success." "Yes, dear." "Go dear, go back." "Thought I'd come and apologise." "But I can't." "Look Janet, I know I really hurt you." "I was wrong." "But when I decided to come back..." "I couldn't think of anyone else but you." "So, I came right here." "I did the right thing, didn't I, Janet?" "Welcome back." "I am so sorry." "So, you know what..." "I've now specifically told all the actors..." "You may borrow clothes for a function, but do return them." "Yes, you know theyjust..." "Typical." "Oh my God." "Oh my God..." "listen, listen." "Guess, who is back in town." "Meghna Mathur." " Wow..." " Back from the dead or what?" "Hi Vinay, I am back in town." "I would like to meet you." "Please, let me know when I can call you." "Spare me the horror." "Who wants to speak to her?" " Guess what?" " What?" "Same message." "She's sent it to everyone." " Desperate." " I tell you." "You know, she always compared herself to Shonali." "Mark my words, someday she will lose it, just like Shonali." " Bye..." " Bye." "I'll see you." " Yes." " For dinner?" " Yes." " Manav, that was excellent." " Thank you." " We need a close up." " Okay." " Go to the rest room." " Alright." " Well, be back in half an hour." " Sure." " Mahesh!" "Set up a trolley." "Make it fast, come on." "You went through a lot in your life but the good thing is that you have come back." "Listen... don't worry." "Everything is going to be okay." "I am sorry, Manav." "I know I've hurt you a lot." "It's okay." "I'm really happy for you, today you're in the big league." " I am really happy..." " Well, hardly." " Hi baby." " Oh, hi." "Am I disturbing you?" "No, no." "Come in." "That's fine." " Meghna, that's Ria." " Ria, that's Meghna." " Hi..." "Nice to meet you." " Hi." "She is my fiancée." "We just got engaged last month." "I heard a lot about you." "Nice to meet you." "Thank you." "I..." "I should go." " No, no." "Please..." " No, really." "Please stay for a while." "Some other time." " Okay?" "Congratulations." " Thanks." " Thanks." "It is said, the people you meet on your way up to success you encounter them again on your way down." "It felt really weird." "The relations I left behind in arrogance of my success have left me and gone way ahead in life." "Everything had changed." "But thank God..." "some relationships in life... don't require an invitation for acceptance." "And this is going to be your outfit for the show." " Nice?" " Nice." "It's beautiful." " Rohit... thank you." " For what?" "For giving me this opportunity." "I know that you didn't have to do it." "And everyone must have advised you not to." "Who cares..." "No one knows you like I do." "Look, if I could have my way, you would be my show stopper." "But Meghna... the sponsors..." "you know how it is." "I know..." "Rohit I know." "The fact that I'm even in your show, means a lot." "After all, it is my first show on comeback and..." "Trust me... you are going to rock." "Okay?" "Hey, are you nervous." "Don't worry... want to drink?" "No thanks." ""Some distance is  fighting loneliness."" ""Is it love?"" ""Is it trust?"" " Meghna..." " Hi." "Meghna, are you okay?" "Yes, of course." "Look, don't worry." "You'll be absolutely fine." "Okay?"

"You just tell me, my assistants are there to help you." "And let's go to the lounge, yes." "Okay, come." "Guess what?" "I had no clue and I walked in and then i was..." "Okay girls, let's stand in order." "Meghna, you are not here." "You are after Brinal." " Brinal, stand here..." " I am sorry." "Meghna..." "Sucheta..." "Move... move." ""Something special."" "Okay, listen." "Meena is the next girl, right?" "Okay, tell her to come on the head ramp and take Meghna away." "Listen, this is second change for Meghna." "Just leave her, I'll handle her." "Okay, just do the same." "I'll handle her." "Meghna, just relax, okay?" "Meghna, just relax." "Meghna, it is alright." "It happens." "It's alright?" "I ruined everything, Janet." "I froze on the head ramp." "Do you even understand what it means?" "That means nothing at all." "It happens sometimes." "It doesn't happen, Rahul." "I don't think I have it in me anymore." "Oh, come on, Meghna." "You were nervous then, that's all." "I mean, you walked the ramp after a year." "Meghnajust think, how will your dad feel?" "Meghna, relax..." "you have to be very strong." "You have to believe in yourself." "You know how this industry works." "There is no room for weakness." "Alright." " Listen... isn't that Shonali?" " The model?" "Just see." "Isn't that Shonali the model?" " How long have you been here?" " Shut up." " Madam." " Shut up!" "Go away!" "Madam, do you know anyone here?" "Madam, please tell us." "Do you know anyone here." "People say that she has been here for the last two days... and isn't talking to anyone." "Shonali Gujral's distressing story... highlights another truth of the fashion industry." "It is evident... that the profession isn't as glamorous as it seems." "With cameraman Mahesh Pakhare this is Umesh Kumawat for Star News, Mumbai." "Listen, Inspector instead of roaming on the streets instead of making a mockery in front of the media it is better that we take her along." "Our NGO will take good care of her." "Madam, it's a procedure." "Until her family members don't come..." "And don't take her along or she doesn't say anything." "We can't let you take her." "Madam, do you know her?" "Yes, I do." "Meghna, it's a huge responsibility." "You yourself are struggling." "Can you afford to look after her as well?" "I haven't thought about it, Janet." "All I know is..." "I'm not doing it for Shonali but for myself." "I really need to do this." "Okay." "After bringing Shonali home I realized that our lives were quite similar." "Both of us had lost ourselves." "The happiness I achieved in helping Shonali come back to a normal life... was more important than the happiness of professional success." "As she got better, I regained the self confidence I had lost." "Listen, listen." "Breaking news." "My darling Rahul has bagged the finale at the fashion week." " Cheers." " That's fantastic." " Wow, Rahul." "That's fantastic." " Cheers." " The biggest show ever." " Thank you." "Thank you." "In fact everything was finalised yesterday." "Tie a line of top models and a surprise show stopper." "Who is the show stopper?" "Like Vinay Khosla's..." "Rohit... you know in fact she is the best right now." "Ms. Meghna Mathur." "Surprise!" "Yeah." "Guys, I don't think that's a good idea." "I mean..." "After what happened at Rohit's show..." "I don't think that's a good idea." "We've given this a lot of thought." "I know you'll are doing this for me." "I mean, I really appreciate it." "I do, I am really grateful, but." "But..." "I... can't do your show Rahul." "I am sorry." "I am sorry." "Why don't you want to do the show?" "Please." "You do know how important this show is for you, don't you?" "Come on, Shonali." "You do know what happened during Rohit's show?" "This show is very important for Rahul." "I can't let the same thing happen to him too, you know." "Meghna, you aren't worried for Rahul but you're afraid of failing again." "Rahul has so much confidence in you isn't it fair to prove him right?" "You can do it." "We have lost a lot here." "I know there's no hope for me." " Shonali..." " But if this show helps you make a comeback..." "It is worth the risk." "I have never interfered in your decisions." "So why do it now?" "Because, I am concerned." "To make Meghna the show stopper for such an important show it's foolishness!" "And you know what she did at Rohit's show." "I don't think she has it in her, anymore." "Look Rahul, try and understand." "The situation is different." "People from the Paris Fashion Week are coming to see the finale." "If there is any problem in this show." "Then Paris is out of the question." "It could be disastrous for you and for my brand." "Abhijeet, I know you care about me, but..." "I think you are overreacting." "Nothing of that sort will happen." "Maybe you are right." "But is it necessary to take such a big risk forthis show?" "There are other shows, give her a chance there." "No, Abhijeet." "It'll be too late then." "I mean, Meghna needs our help right now." "Look, I know what I am doing." "Just trust me." "You think about it." "Oh!" "The Kimaya Fashion Week has begun with a controversy." "Bollywood's ace designer Vinay Khosla... has accused upcoming designer Zulfi Khan with stealing his designs." "Zulfi has copied all my designs." "I had designed them for a film, which he has stolen from there." "I can show you the DVD." "Side... side, please." "Rohit's driver will come to pick you up from the airport." " Come directly to the venue." "Okay?" " Did you have dinner?" "No, I havejust returned from a fitting session." "Okay dear, take care of yourself." "We will be there." " Okay." " Bye." " Bye." "Shonali!" "Shonali!" "Shonali!" "Oh no." "Shonali..." " One second." " Okay." " Yes, Meghna." "Janet, Shonali isn't at home." "The house is a mess." "Don't know what to do?" "Relax, Meghna." "Take it easy." " What is it?" " We'll be there soon." "Who are these people?" "Who are they?" "Hi." "Biren..." "Hi... have you seen Shonali around?" "Did she come here?" "Why would she come here?" "Desperate woman!" "She hasn't paid me five thousand for the stuff as yet." "She's probably lying around on the streets." "Okay, thanks." "Let's go." "Shinde, pay attention." "If you get any information, call immediately." "Alright." "We've sent out a search party." "Look, don't panic." "We have your number." "If we get any information we will call you." " But..." " Relax." "Sir, please try your best." "Meghna, let's go." " Thank you, inspector." " Thank you." "Meghna, enter..." ""Don't know ifl am..."" "Walk properly, Meghna." "What are you doing?" "You forgot your turn, Meghna!" "Meghna, come on." "Concentrate on what you have to do." "Sorry." "Don't worry." "We'll find Shonali." "We've informed the police." "Everything will be alright." "You just focus on the show, okay?" "And I promise everything will be fine." " Got it?" " Yes, got it." "Okay?" "Okay." "Full." "Now where will we..." "No but... that's okay." "Great..." "look, it looks cute." "Come on, you can have this straight." "Okay girls!" "Ready?" "Let's line up and have a great show." "How is it?" "Sure?" "No, turn around, stand up." " Are you okay?" " I am okay." " You need something?" " No." " Okay." " Janet, please come here." " I'll just be back." "Ladies and Gentlemen, kindly take your seats." "Go, Diandra!" "Alicia." ""I shall give up my life."" "Ask him to call Meghna Mathur." ""I shall give up my life."" ""I shall give up my life."" ""I shall give up my life."" ""It's difficult." "I shall give up my life."" ""My dreams."" "Meghna, you are next, come on." "Come on!" ""I shall give up my life."" "Lets go." ""I shall give up my life."" ""It's difficult." "I shall give up my life."" " Ready?" "You are next." " Yeah." "Meghna, your phone is ringing." " Hello..." " Are you mad, Shruti?" " Hello, Miss Meghna." " Yes." "This is Inspector Gighe from Bandra police station." "There's bad news." "We've found Shonali Gujral's body at Khar East." "We suspect that the cause of death could be drug overdose." "Please come to Bhabha Hospital and claim the body." "Hello, Ms. Meghna." "Hello, Ms. Meghna." "30 seconds to go for Meghna." "30 seconds." "Ready?" "Okay?" "Stand by and send her..." "Go." "Send her in quickly." "Meghna, you have to go now." "Come on, go!" "Move." "Meghna, walk!" "Come now, walk!" "Walk, it's your turn!" "Go for it!" "Meghna!" "Walk!" "Come on Meghna, walk!" "Meghna!" "Put the lights." "Meghna!" "Walk!" "Come on, Meghna, walk!" "Go." "Meghna walk." "What are you waiting for?" "Go for it!" "Come Meghna, quickly." "Meghna, now!" "When we dream, nobody tells us what we'd have to give up to achieve them." "I lost Shonali in the same moment I achieved success." "I was pained by her loss." "But I had the feeling that she gave me a reason to dream." "Even after everything I went through... life provided me another opportunity." "To find myself again."
