Pani – a story we wish were true – Part 40

Recap: Parth resting at Niti’s place. The whole gang gathered there to disturb the new “friends”.

The next day Parth and all the others resume shoot. They reach the location together from Niti’s place.

They continue with the scene that was left unfinished because of Parth’s injury. As usual, the Fab 5 and NH3 start off with improvised dialogues and the scene gets extended.

Later, after lunch, the scene to be shot is the one where Nandini falls off from the cliff and Manik saves her. The scene was to be shot in pieces and accordingly the first scene was where Niti had to act as if she is falling off. She did not have to actually fall off as they had been shooting near a real cliff which was dangerous. She just had to act as if she has slipped.

Director: Roll camera, and action !

Nandini ran towards the guitar near the cliff and slipped her leg, lost balance and was about to fall. Actually, she did not have to fall but due to the force with which she came running, she actually fell over and gave out a scream. Parth had been standing close as the scene was one where even he had been running after her. He heard her scream and got scared himself. He rushed towards her and pulled her towards him, saving her from falling off the cliff.

The force with which he pulled her, made both of them fall on the floor with Niti on top of him. Both of their faces horrified of what could have happened. Niti having tears in her eyes fearing the fall and Parth sweating due to the nervousness of loosing her. All the crew members immediately gathered around to check if they were alright. Both of them straightened themselves not to let anyone notice their feelings.

Luckily none of them had got any injuries and therefore they continued with the shoot after a short break.

The next part to be shot was where Manik and Nandini both fall off the cliff and stay hanging there.

The first time when Niti is asked by the director to cling on Parth, she hesitates a little but then being the “professional”, she slowly places her hands around his shoulders and then even Parth slides his hand into her waist which gives Niti thrills all over her body.

Step by step they complete that scene as well and nothing really special happens after that as the scene was shot in parts and all the crew members were surrounding the two of them all the while. But they did have chills all over their body all the time.

The next scene was when after Manik and Nandini climb back up, the Fab 5 and NH3 members gather around and start enquiring what the matter was and whether the two of them were alright?

It was a tradition on sets that whenever there used to be a combined scene where all the actors were to be present, they would never stick to the actual lines given for the scene. They would all go on improvising and adding so many lines that even the smallest scene would get extended so long !

When all of them had gathered around Manik and Nandini, Harshad got an evil plan to somehow link Manik and Nandini to give a wrong impression of the two of them in front of all the others. Abhishek improvised the line as,

Harshad: yar Nandini ko kaise kuch Ho sakta hai ? Manik tha Na use bachane k liye. Sach mein Manik, Tu to Nandini ka hero hai !

The line was a bang on for the show ! After the scene was completed, the director and all others started praising him for that wonderful improvisation. But there was something that happened off screen as well.

The line was definitely meant for Manik and Nandini, but Parth and Niti took it on themselves as if Parth was Niti’s hero. This actually made sense for them as Parth did save Niti from falling off the cliff before. Niti blushed at the thought of Parth being her hero as she remembered the concern she saw on his face when he pulled her and saved her from falling. Parth felt embarrassed as he understood what the comment meant. He suddenly decided on being over conscious about the way he behaves in front of the others. He takes his phone and texts Niti,

Parth: Hey ! Listen ! We need to be careful about the way we behave in front of everyone.

Niti: (confused ! replies…) What do you mean ?

Parth: I mean for example the way I saved you and we fell over. People might have noticed that and maybe that’s the reason Abhishek improvised the dialogue.

Niti: But Abhishek himself said, it just came to his head. there was no specific reason for such a comment.

Parth: Yes but still. Maybe someone else might have noticed it.

Niti: So, you regret saving me ?!

Parth: What are you saying ? I didn’t mean that.

Niti: You sounded so. Fine so you want us to be careful right ? We’ll do that ! End of discussion.

She keeps her phone aside angrily and starts talking to the others completely ignoring Parth. Parth sends her so many texts after that but she opens none !

Then came a scene which was a DhruNi scene and for that Niti and Utkarsh started rehearsing together. All the while after that fight, Niti kept avoiding Parth and kept on chatting with Utkarsh. This made Parth really very furious as she wasn’t even checking his messages. He didn’t realize but he was getting jealous of his buddy Utkarsh. He could not stand the fact that on one side she was so angry with him that she wasn’t even checking his messages and on the other side she seemed so happy and chirpy with Utkarsh.

He was sitting in one corner all alone when Utkarsh came up to him,

Utkarsh: Hey buddy ! Why are you sitting here alone ? Come, we have a scene to rehearse.

Parth: (looks up at him angrily) Why do you need me ? You have that…that Niti to rehearse..

Utkarsh: What’s wrong with you buddy ? Don’t you remember ? It’s a scene with all 3 of us ?

Parth: So, you remember that now ? What was going on till now ? You didn’t need me..

Utkarsh: Till now we were rehearsing the scene where it’s just me and her.

Parth:(gets more angry at that !) So then have that ! Just the two of you !

Utkarsh:(sits beside him and pats his shoulder) Buddy ! I’m sure there’s something that’s disturbing you. Do you want to talk about it ?

Parth: No ! Come lets do the scene.

He stands up and starts walking without turning to see whether Utkarsh was following. He reaches up to Niti who was standing facing the opposite direction.

Parth: (to Utkarsh) So buddy ! What’s the scene ? Lets just do it and finish it off foe once ! I don’t have time for this.

Niti turns around and makes a confused look at him to which Parth continues,

Parth: What ? I’m talking to my buddy.

He turns around to find that Utkarsh wasn’t there and he was looking like a fool talking to his imaginary buddy. He saw Utkarsh coming from a distance and calls out to him,

Parth: (shouting !) Where have you been ? Come fast !

Utkarsh starts running to reach them and Niti gives out a soft giggle at Parth’s stupidity which aggravates his anger.

When Utkarsh reaches, they finish off the rehearsal fast but all that while Utkarsh noticed some strange vibes flowing between Parth and Niti which gives him a feeling that things weren’t alright between the two of them.

After shoot that day, Utkarsh talks to both Veebha and Ayaz, about what he had noticed between Niti and Parth. He asked them to try and talk to the two of them to find out what the matter was.

Veebha somehow convinces Niti to come and stay with her for the night so that she could talk to her. Ayaz on the other hand was aware that Parth won’t agree to be with him when he was disturbed. He therefore decides to reach his place without informing him so that he could have a talk over a glass of drink !

Precap: Veebha and Ayaz trying to talk to Niti and Parth. Would the two of them open up about their feelings for each other ?

Tomorrow: Manan ff. Manik trying to help Abhi with the treatment and talking to Mukti to convince her to reveal her secret to Fab 5. Aliya crying her heart out due to the cruel words from Dhruv. She gets her friend Cabir’s shoulder to cry on.

****
