"I miss you Sidharth. 30 saal ho gaye, par dard ab bhi utna hi hota hai jitna us din jab tum mujhe choddke chale gaye. Pata nahi itne saal kaise jee gayi mein tumhare bina. Mere paas sab the - Amma, Shehbaz, papa, Maa, Neetu Di, Preeti Di, Jiju, tumhare friends, SidNaazians, Shehnaazians aur bahut saare Sidhearts bhi; but tum mujhe jis tanhaayi aur akelepan mein chodd gaye, woh kabhi kam nahi huyi."

She spoke with teary eyes infront of the picture which they had clicked together on Diwali 2020, which also happened to be her most talked mobile wallpaper years back when he was still alive.

Shehnaaz Gill, an evergreen superstar in Bollywood movies who earned legacy through her acting in the entertainment industry. Along with playing a character centred roles at the age of 57, she is one of the renowned singer, producer and director as well. Above all the professional achievements, she is a great philanthropist who would silently donate her maximum income.

Shehbaz: Oye, motto, Mera Qiran se phir breakup ho gaya.

Shehnaaz: Chup kar jaa koteya, teri uske naal shaadi huye 28 saal ho gaya aur tera 27 saal ka puttar bhi hai. Tu abhi bhi breakup - patchup khel raha hai.

Zorawar: Purani aadat hai bua, papa ko koi seriously nahi leta.

Shehbaz: Chup kar, tu mera puttar hoke meri hi beizzati kharab kar raha hai.

Shehnaaz: Oye, mere Zorawar ko kyu daant raha hai? Qiran ka gussa Qiran par hi nikaal. Chal Zoro, hum chalte hai.

Shehbaz: Oye, rukh jaa Qiran bhi aa rahi hai, saath mein chalte hai.

Shehnaaz: Chal shukar hai tujhe yaad toh hai.

Shehbaz: Haan, motto usko kaise bhul sakte hai. Main toh bas tera mood thik kar raha tha.

The tear in her eyes which she had been holding from so long bursts out as she hugs her little brother, Shehbaz and cries out. He pats her back but he too was in tears. They were going for a prayer meet as it was 3 decades since he had left the mortal world.

11th December, 2051

Zorawar rings the doorbell restlessly multiple times before Shehnaaz could open the door.

Shehnaaz: Kya kar raha hai Zoro? Ghanti thodneki koshish kar raha hai ya mere kaan?

Zorawar: Bua chalo na kuch dikhana hai tumhe. Jaldi chalo.

Shehnaaz: Abhi? Raat ke 10 baje kaha le jaa raha hai tu mujhe?

Zorawar: Chalo na bua. Tum bahut sawaal jawaab karti ho. Kuch dikhana hai, chalo.

Shehnaaz: Rukh kuch dang ke kapde pehen loon, phir chalte hai.

Zorawar: Thik hi hai ye bua, aap jo bhi pehno sexy hi lagti ho, chalo ab.

Shehnaaz: Bahut jyada chant ho gaya hai tu. Chal.

Shehnaaz shook her head in disbelief and locked the door behind. Zorawar started the car and drove quietly.

Shehnaaz: Abhi toh bol de kaha le jaa raha hai. Tujhe pata hai na kal subah mujhe orphanage jaana hai. Kal uska 71st birthday hai.

Zorawar: Haan bua. Jaldi aa jayenge wapis.

Shehnaaz: Hmmm..

He pulls the car at his residence.

Shehnaaz: Tu apne ghar le aaya mujhe. Sab thik toh hai? Phir se Shehbaz aur Qiran ki ladaayi ho gayi kya?

Zorawar: Nahi, woh dono dinner date pe gaye hai. Maine hi bheja tha unhe. Aap chalo aapko kuch dikhana hai.

Shehnaaz: Kab se kuch dikhana hai dikhana hai bol raha hai. Tu aur tera suspense. (Facepalms)

He locks his car and Shehnaaz goes towards the stairs to go up to enter the house.

Zorawar: Bua, waha nahi.. ek minute..

He goes and unlocks the door in the basement.

Zorawar: Chalo bua!

Shehnaaz: Yeh kya hai?

Zorawar: Mera secret office jaha kisiko aane ki permission nahi hai.

Shehnaaz: Haaye mera putt!! Aur tu mujhe le aaya. (Looks around) Yeh toh koi kabaad khaana jaise dikhta hai. Tune part time kabaadi ka business start kar diya? Tujhe tera boss puri tanka nahi deta kya?

Zorawar: Bua, beizzati math karo mere workspace ki. Aapki khushi ka khazaana hai mere paas.

Shehnaaz: Hmmm.. chal dikha kaunsi khushi ka khazaana hai is kabaad mein.

Zorawar rolls his eyes and takes out a brief case from the cabinet.

Zorawar: Yeh (displays the briefcase) yeh hai woh khushi ka khazaane ki chaabi.

Shehnaaz: Kya hai yeh.. paise hai kya ismein? Woh tere bua ke paas bahut hai bete. Mera time kharab kar diya. Chal ab mujhe ghar chodd de.

Zorawar: Arey bua. Aap apna muh thodi der ke liye band rakho aur dekho.

He places the brief case on the floor and presses a button. It opens up into a weird looking machine. Shehnaaz looked at it with shock.

Shehnaaz: Haaye, yeh kya hai?

Zorawar: Aap aao idhar. Yaha khadi ho jao.

She abides by his instructions.

Zorawar: Bua yeh meri invention hai, time machine. Aap issey future ya past mein jaa sakti ho.

Shehnaaz: Mazak kar raha hai na?

Zorawar: Nahi bua, saalon se ispe work kar raha hoon, bas aapke liye. Aap issey past mein jaakar apne Sidharth se mil sakte ho.

Shehnaaz: Itna ganda wala mazak math kar Zoro mere se chittar khaayega.

Zorawar: Nahi bua, dekho trial ke liye main khudh kuch der pehle gaya tha, aur yeh dekho selfie leke aaya hoon unke saath.

He shows her the picture of him with Sidharth.

Shehnaaz: (twists his ears) Jhoote, aise edits mere fans kar dete the. SidNaaz ki shaadi, honeymoon, bachche sabke photo milenge tujhe agar online doondhega toh..

Zorawar: (Shrieks) Aaa.. bua.. kaan chodd do meri.. pata tha tum aise hi bologi isiliye mein ye le aaya, dekho.

Shehnaaz: Haaye, yeh toh Sidharth ki ghadhi hai, jo ghum ho gayi thi usse. Tujhe kaha se mila?

Zorawar: (glares at him) Churakar laaya hoon.

Shehnaaz: Huh? (Shocked) Sachchi? Tu sach mein Sidharth se mila?

Zorawar: Haan bua.

Flashback:

Sidharth just had a pack up of his shooting for Broken But Beautiful 3 and headed towards his vanity van. It was late night and a gentleman was waiting for him near the vanity van.

Man: Sir, sir, can I have you autograph and selfie please?

Sid: Sure meri jaan. Itni raat tak wait kar rahe ho. Aajao andhar.

They both went inside his vanity van.

Sid: Kuch khaaoge?

Man: Nahi Sir. Autograph please. (Passed a pen and a paper)

Sid: Kya naam hai?

Man: Zorawar Gill

Sid: (chuckles) SidNaaz lover ho?

Zorawar: Haan, bahut bada..

Sid: Naam se pata chal gaya.. (laughs) Pakka isi naam se autograph doon?

Zorawar: Haan Sir, please.

Sidharth signs the autograph.

Dear Zorawar Gill Shukla,
Wish you a great success in life.
With lots of love,
Sidharth Shukla

Zorawar looks at it and smiles.
I said Zorawar Gill and he wrote Zorawar Gill Shukla.

Zorawar: Sir, one selfie please.

Sid: Sure meri jaan.

He covered his shooting costume with another shirt and clicked a selfie with him.

Zorawar: Thank you Sir. Aap bahut achche hai. Meri bua toh sabse badi wali Sidheart hai.

Sid: Tumhari bua? Kahi unka naam Preeti ya Neetu toh nahi?

Zorawar smiles and nods no.

Sid: You yourself look around 30 year old. How old is she?

Zorawar: 57 years old.

Sid: Okay. Give my love and regards to her.

Zorawar: Sure Sir.

Sidharth's boy Adith informs Sidharth that they need to leave home. While Sidharth was busy talking to Adith, Zorawar flicks his watch kept on the table and slips it into his pocket.

Sidharth: Sorry Zorawar, I need to leave now. It was nice meeting you. Do watch Broken But Beautiful 3.

Zorawar: I've already watched it, you were just awesome.

Sidharth: Huh? Abhi release kaha huyi hai meri jaan? Abhi toh shoot kar raha hoon.

Zorawar: Oops sorry Sir, aapko saamne dekh ke meri khushi ka thikana hi nahi raha aur main bawla ho gaya hoon..

Sidharth smiles and Zorawar comes out of the vanity van and goes towards a dark and secluded area.

Flashback ends.

Shehnaaz: (tearful eyes) Haaye mujhe bhi mila de mere Sidharth se please! Please Zoro. (Begs)

Zorawar: Issi liye laya hoon main aapko. Unke birthday pe aapko gift dene. Ab yeh aapke time mein GPS hoti thi na aise hi hai, ispe location set kar sakte ho aap, aur yaha aap date aur time set kar sakte ho. Isko set karke yeh 1, 2, aur 3 button press karna hai. Issey aap waha pahuch jaoge.

Shehnaaz: Achcha? Main try karu, please?

Zorawar: Haan. Yaad rakho bua. Ismein ek timer hai 20 minute ka, aap jaha bhi jaogi, 20 minute mein aapko waapis le aayega ye machine. Toh aapko unka location pata hoga na woh set karo with time aur chale jao.

Shehnaaz: (kisses his forehead) agar yeh sach hai na Zoro toh main meri jitni umar bachi hai utni umar tak tumhari pooja karungi.

Zorawar: Kya bol rahi ho bua? (Hugs her) Aap mere maa se kam thodi hi ho. Aapne hi toh mera naam rakha.

Shehnaaz: Thik hai putt, main jaldi jaati hoon, mujhe mere Sid ko dekhna hai. Haaye, pehle bata deta toh kuch achcha sa dress pehen leti.

Zorawar: Woh toh aapko kisi bhi haal mein pyaar karte hai na. Toh aap dress ki chinta mat karo. Jaldi se milke aa jao. Mummy papa ke aane se pehle aa jana hai aapko warna daant padegi unse.

Shehnaaz: (folds her hands) Oh Babaji, tumhari lakh lakh danyavaad. Sab sahi se ho jaaye, mujhe apne Sid se mila do please.

Zorawar: All the best bua.

Shehnaaz smiles and presses the button carefully as if she was touching her life blood.
