The Journey Begins..

Lonavala, a popular hill station situated between Mumbai and Pune in Maharashtra, is known for its natural beauty and cool climate.

The rural beauty in this region has been a point of attraction since always. This attraction has brought another team to shoot a romantic music video in the beautiful hills of this region.

Passing through a small jungle completely protected in every way, a unique hill top has been finalized for some major scenes of the video.

The shooting of a music video seems common until it creates a magic. A magic, beyond a common human being's understanding.

It's been more than two hours since the team has reached this place and everything around seems like a choas.

Every member of the team has been busy in making their part as perfect as they can. The set up for the shoot has to be perfect as the man, they are preparing everything for is the example of perfection himself.

A while later, a black BMW stopped at the location. Every eye turned towards the car as every person stopped in their tracks.

He is there !

Forgetting about the work, the team curiously waited for him to come out of the car.  The centre of attraction is there, how can anyone concentrate on anything else.

The door opened and he came out of the car. A simple white shirt with blue jeans made him look the most handsome man in this whole damn world.

The simplest clothes can make him look the most attractive. He doesn't need to make efforts to look cool, to look a handsome dude. He is born handsome.

The personality he has got makes him look the most attractive man effortlessly. His aura screams power and honesty.

The power here refers to the power he has within himself, the power to be honest giving a damn about this selfish world.

With his one hand in his jeans pocket, there he stood closing the door himself. His presence felt captivative. Taking off his goggles, he observed everything around in a quick take.

The place which was a complete chaos a while ago with team members screaming on each other to get the work done, silence was prevailed around.

His lips curved into a slight smirk while tugging the goggles in his t shirt he walked towards the team while everyone stood in attention.

"Hello Sidharth Sir, nice to meet you sir" forwarding his hand the director smiled being a little nervous.

It was the first time of the director of music video to meet the star of Industry.

"Hello Mr. Kapoor, call me Sidharth only" shaking his hand with the director sidharth smiled slightly easing out the nervousness of mr. kapoor in an instant.

Sidharth Raichand has come !

The director's smile grew listening to him. His voice held a respectable tone and politeness could be seen in the way he did hand shake.

This humbleness in his nature captivates everyone even when he doesn't talk much.

This powerful aura he has that everyone bends their head in front of him in respect. The biggest name of the Industry and the zero ego makes him the most loved.

The team felt themselves to be lucky enough to get a chance to work with Sidharth Raichand. The director has expected a rejection yet there was a hope.

The hope came true !

This is the first time sidharth has accepted an offer to do a music video. The biggest star, this man is of the entire film industry.

Each and every movie he has done has been a blockbuster. There was no need for him to go for a music video but he never made a boundary for himself.

For him, it doesn't matter if the work is huge or small, what matters to him is the quality of work.

This music video was offered to him a month back while he was shooting for his upcoming film.

The lyrics of this romantic soulful song touched his heart. It is very rare in today's time to talk about soul's love and that was something which made him feel a strong connection with the song.

Accepting the offer sidharth told his manager to take out some days free from his schedule for this song specially.

It didn't matter to him if the budget is less or whom he would be acting opposite in the video, all that mattered to him were the lyrics which captivated him in an instant the moment he listened them.

Why this song only? Why these lyrics only? Why only he was chosen for this song? Why the director thought to take him knowing how big name he is to go with a music video? Why expecting a rejection he still had a hope?

Destiny has started to play it's role !

He doesn't know that the lyrics have been written to captivate him only. The writer here is God and no body knows.

The story has already written. It is the time to enjoy the journey !

"okay sidharth, everything is almost done. I hope u will enjoy working with our team" the director was delighted seeing his humbleness and that made him talk confidently.

He realised with this smallest interaction that it would be very easy to work with him as he has zero ego.

Him being the super star of the industry and talking so politely to a small music video director like him talks a lot about his kind personality.

"I know, we gonna rock it" the confidence in his words showed his dedication for his work.

Nodding at director politely sidharth moved inside along with his manager.

Every team member was excited as well as nervous to meet him. Sidharth met everyone politely putting them in ease.

The environment seemed friendly because of his humble nature. He didn't talk much but the politeness was there in his smallest sentence too.

Once done meeting with everyone sidharth went to his vanity to get ready while the team was back to their work.

"Sir, this girl Aayushi Bansal has not reached yet. Ab to Sidharth sir bhi aa gye hain" one of the team member told the director who got worried realising the lead actress was yet to reach.

Everyone was excited for sidharth to come which made them forget to keep a check on the lead actress too.

"Call her. Ek to she is a new face pta nhi sidharth sir kaise react karenge to work with a new comer. call her and do warn her to come as soon as possible" mr. Kapoor instructed while worry was clearly visible on his face.

He has wished to take a fresh face for this song as the lyrics are just soulful. An angelic face with full of innocence which was not yet in this industry was the demand of this song.

This girl, Ayushi Bansal, a theatre artist has got some pretty features. The director could not completely connect her with the character but to some extent he was satisfied and that made him select this girl for the video.

She was asked before if she would like to come along with the team to destination but she chose to come by herself.

"Sure sir, i will inform her right away" the team member went away dialing her number while Mr. kapoor moved back to worry still worried.

Everything has planned already. The actors have started playing their roles unaware of themselves being given the parts to perform by Almighty.

______________________________________

The car moved towards its destination passing along the beautiful hills. The destination has been planned by destiny a long back, it's just the journey has started now.

Sliding the window mirror down she closed her eyes letting the cool breeze touch her face.

The breeze felt familiar, a sense of peace she could feel inside everytime the breeze was touching her.

She could sense this destination has held something familiar in it. Her strong instinct could make her feel that this destination has something special for her.

Keeping her thoughts aside she let the breeze touch her face more while smiling to herself.

Those soft shinning baby hair of hers shaded her angelic face making her giggle softly.

Pushing her hair strand behind her ear she opened her eyes to witness the beautiful view of hills in front of her eyes.

"Ayushi, kitni khubsurat jagah hai na ye" she exclaimed like a kid giggling to herself and enjoying the view fully.

The cute tone of hers and softness filled in her voice makes her look the most adorable kid with that angelic face of hers.

That's how everyone knows her, a cute happy girl with everything one can wish to have. The truth she has kept inside her, just for herself.

"maine to pehle hi bola tha, tuhi mana kar rahi thi aane se" Ayushi chuckled while checking herself again and again to make sure she was looking perfect.

"haan to ek type se mai to faltu mai hi jaa rahi hun na tere sath. tera to kaam hai aur mai akele bor ho jaungi" she pouted sadly thinking ayushi will get busy with her work and she will have to stay alone until she gets free.

"tu fir wahi baat le k baith gyi. koi bor nhi hogi tu. itni sundar jagah pai jaa rahe hain, wahan koi kaise bor ho skta hai" ayushi said while busy in her touch up.

"Ayushi, hum teen din wahin rahenge na. vo log tujhe daantenge to nhi na k mujhe kyun sath mai le k aayi" she cannot stay quiet now as she started once. Her questions and her talks can never end.

"kyun daantenge, maine pehle hi permission le li thi. tujhe ghar se yahan tak 10 baar bata chuki hun. pen aur paper de, likh k sign kar k deti hun. tabhi manegi tu" ayushi sighed.

"achha theek hai na, abhi nhi puchhungi. ek baar puchhne par hi chid jati hai tu" turning her face back to the window she let herself lost in the beauty of hills keeping all her questions aside.

Shaking her head in disbelief ayushi rested her head back thinking to rest for a while. Closing her eyes she smiled to herself thinking how this opportunity can change her life.

She has got the biggest opportunity of her life. A bright future she was dreaming ahead now.

Sitting on the other side she was enjoying the cool breeze and natural beauty with soft goggles leaving her mouth every now and then totally unaware about where her destiny was taking her.

The clouds has shaded the sky changing the weather in moments. The cool breeze has started flowing faster and cooler.

The sudden change of weather is indicating the arrival of rain. Unpredictable nature it is.

The car entered through the forest route to reach the hill top. The destination was close.

Keeping her head back she was resting calmly. Her heart beats quickened in an instant making her open her eyes and sit straight all of sudden.

Keeping her hand on her heart she felt how fast her heart was beating at that moment. It came as a shock to her that what made her heart beats fast.

Sliding the window mirror down again she looked outside. The sudden change in weather didn't feel natural to her.

The reason she didn't understand but her strong initution is what she believes the most. That sense of familiarity in breeze, she could feel it  growing stronger.

The route in the middle of the jungle made her breathes go heavy even before she could proceed what's happening to her.

The more the car moved towards its destination, the more her heart beats were going fast. Rubbing her chest she tried to calm herself down but it felt out of control to her.

"ye mausam kaise change ho gya ek damm se" looking outside she asked while a sudden restlessness has taken over her insides.

"mausam par kiska zor hai, kabhi bhi badal skta hai" ayushi answered totally unaware of the feeling this girl was having inside.

Humming she didn't feel like speaking anything more as her quickened heart beats has made her too restless to understand anything else.

____________________________________

Tapping his feet continuously on the floor of his vanity he was trying to calm his restless heart.

His quickened heart beats have refused to go on their normal pace again while this restlessness was making it difficult for him to understand what was happening to him.

Getting up he started pacing in the vanity restlessly while rubbing his chest to calm his heart beats. Nothing was working at the moment for him to have a control on himself.

A strong pull he was feeling towards something he was unaware about. There was something strong, he was feeling himself familiar with.

The car stopped at its destination. The journey has already begin.

The back door opened while she came out of the car closing the door behind.

Closing her eyes she took in a deep breathe as the breeze made her feel the same familiarity but this time it was stronger then before.

Her raising heart beats has kept her restless but her face looked calm. The storm which was going inside her, she kept it for herself only not letting the people around know.

"beautiful place na. bhut maza aane wala hai yahan" standing beside her ayushi admired the place dreaming about her bright future which would start from here according to her.

"hmm, beautiful" she whispered to herself while tightening her hold on her mobile to calm her insides down.

"chal jldi ab chalte hain. pehle hi late hain. 20 minutes pehle aaya tha call. aaja" remembering the call she received from one of the team member she pulled her along to go further inside the place where exact the shooting would be  taking place.

Her mobile rang the very next moment stopping the two in their tracks only. Ayushi took out her mobile from her bag while she stood beside her confused with what was happening to her.

"tu andar jaa, mai abhi aayi call attend karke. ja andar tu tab tak" pushing her slightly ahead ayushi moved outside to attend the call.

Lost in understanding what was happening to her, she took slow steps towards her destination.

Pushing the door open he came out of the vanity as his inner storm wasn't letting him stay calm.

A strong breeze hit through him making him take in a long deep breathe. Closing his eyes he stood in his steps letting himself feel the breeze.

The same sense of familiarity he felt inside as the breeze touched him again and again. The pull he felt strong inside the vanity, it felt getting more stronger everytime the breeze is touching his face.

Lost in feeling this sense of familiarity he took slow steps towards the pull he was feeling so strong. The steps he wasn't even realising.

The weather has turned cooler with the clouds getting heavier in the sky shading the sky more. Nature was playing it's part as a witness of something strong since always. 

The team was busy in their respective works totally unaware of the visible yet invisible happenings in their surroundings.

Her steps moved following the beats of her heart while she was totally lost to understand where she was going.

Passing through the people working around she kept taking slow yet strong steps while a strong pull her heart felt towards something.

The need to move closer towards that pull made her heart more restless while the surroundings went blur for her to realise any other thing expect reaching to that strong pull.

Reaching near the edge of the hill he looked around to understand why did he come there. It felt as if he had no control on his own steps.

How could he know. It was planned by Almighty ! 

Closing his eyes he just stood there facing the valley while his hand reached to his chest. Keeping his palm on his heart, he took in a deep breathe.

A strong cold wave hit him hard which just shook his insides making him feel his heart beats increasing to an impossible speed.

The pull he was feeling felt closer and stronger. He needed this. He needed to go closer to this pull. It has just made him restless to such an intensity that his rock hard body felt shivering.

Taking in a long breathe he turned back while putting his one hand in his pocket.

Those innocence filled eyes screaming pure honesty looked deep into his intense oceanic eyes.

The world stopped there !
