The D -Day had arrived.
Finally all the preparations were over, for the 'Talent Hunt ' .
Aliya was busy helping the participants, to get ready.
Dhruv looked after the security.
Cabir was busy with the arrangements of the light and sound.
Manik being the in charge of the whole event, was running from one corner of the backstage to the other, checking all the arrangements.
Mukti was busy tuning her guitar, as Fab5 had the opening performance.

Wearing a white salwar with red dupatta, Nandini sat on a chair, irritatedly.
Nandini ( pov ) : khadoos! !!!!......mujhe yaha bitha ke. ...pataa nehin kaha gayaab ho gaya hai? ??????
Navya : tumhe kuch chahiye Nandini? ?????
Nandini ( irritatedly ) : haan. ...mujhe bass iss chair se uthna hai! !!!
Navya : sorry Nandini. ....woh hum tumhe karne nehin de sakte hai. ....yeh humare president ka special order hai ki tum iss chair par baith kar rest karo! !!!!!
Nandini : president se pehele .....woh mera husband hai! !!!!.....nehin manti main usske orders. .....main jaa rahi hu! !!!!
Manik ( confused ) : kaun kaha jaa raha hai? ?????
Navya was about to reply, when Nandini pinched her hard and she yelled.
Navya (in pain ): mata rani! !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Manik : mata rani kaha jaa rahi hai? ???
Nandini ( covering up ): mata rani bhi baithe -baithe bore ho gayi hai! !!!!......issliye woh bhi kahi ghumne jaa rahi hai. .....kyon Navya? ????
Saying this Nandini looked at Navya. Poor Navya, who had no options left, nodded her in a yes.
Manik : koi kahi bhi jaye. ...par tum. ....tum iss chair se nehin uth rahi ho! !!!!!
Nandini ( angrily ) : Manik. ..this is not fair! !!!!.....main yaha baithe -baithe bore ho jaungi! !!!
Manik ( sweetly ) : koi baat nehin baby! !!......hurt hone se behetar hai ki tum bore ho jao! !!!.....I don't mind. ....and wish me luck. ...Fab5 ke performance ka time ho raha hai
Nandini ( irritatedly ) : Fab5 ko all the best! !!
Manik realising her irritation : thanks. ...baby on behalf of Fab5

As soon as Fab5 stepped on the stage, the whole crowd goes wild, roaring their name.

Badtameezee ek bimari hai
Aisi bimaari
Jo dheere dheere waqt ke saath
Budhape mein badal jaati hai
Mein kehta hoon jab tak budhapa nahi ata
Thodi Badtameezee hi kar lete hai (Manik calmly said and entered the stage )

Paan mein pudina dekha
Naak ka nagina dekha
Chikni chameli dekhi
Chikna kamina dekha
Chaand ne cheater hoke cheat kiya to
Saare taare bole, gili gili a aa ana (Manik started singing )

Meri baat teri baat
Zyada baatein buri baat
Thaali mein katora leke
Aaloo -bhat, muli -bhat
Mere peeche kisi ne repeat kiya to
Saala maine tere munh pein maara mukka (Manik )

Is pe bhoot koi chadha hai theherna jaane na
Ab to kya buraa kya bhala hai
Fark pehchaane naa
Zid pakad ke khada hai kambakht
Chhodna jaane naa
Badtameez dil, Badtameez dil
Badtameez di, maane naa, maane naa (Manik, Cabir And Dhruv in unison )

Yeh jo haal hai sawaal hai kamal hai
Jaane naa, jaane naa
Badtameez dil, Badtameez dil
Badtameez dil, maane naa, maane naa (all in chorus )

Hawaa mein hawaana dekha
Dhimka falaana dekha
Singh ka singhada khaake
Sher ka ghuraana dekha
Puri duniya ka gol gol chakkar leke
Maine duniya ko mara dhakha (Dhruv sang )

Hai bollywood hollywood, very very jolly good
Rayi ke pahaad par teen foota lilliput
Mere peeche kisi ne repeat kiya to
Saala maine tere munh pe maara mukka (Cabir )

Ayaashi ke man mein se khud ko
Modna jaane naa
Kambal bewajah yeh sharam ka
Odhna jaana naa
Zid pakad ke khada hai kambakht
Chhodna jaane naa
Badtameez dil, Badtameez dil
Badtameez dil, maane naa, maane naa (All in chorus )

Aaj saare, Chaand taare
Ban gaye hai disco lights
Jal ke, bujha ke humko bula ke
Keh rahe hai, party all night (Mukti and Aliya sang )

Naata betuki dillagi se, todna jaane naa
Aane wale kal ki fikar se, judna jaane naa
Zid pakad ke khada hai kambakht
Chhodna jaane naa
Badtameez dil, Badtameez dil
Badtameez dil, maane naa, maane naa (All in chorus )

Yeh jo haal hai sawaal hai kamal hai
Jaane naa, jaane naa
Badtameez dil, Badtameez dil
Badtameez dil ,maane naa, maane naa

In the backstage Fab5 had a quick group hug.
Mukti and Cabir then headed towards the stage, as they where the anchor 's for the evening.
Manik ( smiling ): how was it? ???
Nandini : Fab5 rocked it! !!!!
Manik ( acting as if hurt ): only Fab5 rocked it? ??
Before Manik could complete, Mukti came towards them, after announcing the first performance.
Checking a list, Mukti said : Nandini. ..you are performing on number 3
Nandini ( shocked ): no way! !!!!.....their's some confusion. .....how can I perform? ????
Mukti ( chuckled ) : but your name is in this list! !!!!!
Nandini : how is that possible! !!!.....maine toh aapna naam hi nehin diya! !!!!
Turning towards Manik angrily, she said :kya yeh tumne? ??????
Manik ( confused ) : maine yeh nehin kiya! !!!!......tumhari tabiyaat theek nehin thi toh issliye. ...maine tumhe 'Talent Hunt ' ke bareme kuch nehin kaha! !!!!
Nandini : agar tumne nehin kiya!!!!!......toh phir yeh ????
Mukti : joh bhi ho Nandini. ...you have to perform. ..yeh hi iss 'Talent Hunt ' ka cardinal rule hai. ....you can not withdraw now! !!!!
Nandini ( panicked ): maine kuch prepare nehin kiya hai. ...stage pein main kya perform karungi? ?????
Their conversation was interrupted, as they listened to the announcement for the second performance.
Nandini ( freaked out ): oh shit! !!!!!.....ab kya? ???
Manik holds her hand and looks at her .
Manik : do you trust me? ?????
Nandini nodded her head in a yes.
Manik : tum stage par jaogi. ...and you will perform! !!!
The second performance ended and it was now Nandini's turn.
