I have decided not to choose Rajeev as a prominent character
---

Sai flips through the pages to find Divya's dialogues but finds nothing.

Sai: Ek minute, yaha pe toh koi bhi line nahi hai ?

Rajeev: Ha, nahi hai!

Sai: Par naam toh THE divya hai, matlab.. Koi doggy ka show hai?

Rajeev: Aisa koi show tha? Toh, hum page 20 se shuru karte hai thik hai?

Sai(shocked) : Ruko, KYA!? I'm going to be reading the role for a DOG!!

Rajeev: Wahi LEAD role hai!

Sai: Divya ki. The dog.

Rajeev: Sahi kaha. If you'll turn to page 20...

Sai(calmly) : Darasal baat ye hai, ki maine socha tha mein role play karungi, uh... Ek insaan ka.

Rajeev: Acha. Well, sure, I understand why you thought that, but it's the lead role! Isme bohot scope hai.

Sai: Divya baat nahi karti! DIVYA IS A DOG!

Rajeev: Woh baat karti hai.

Sai flips rapidly through the pages.

Sai: Kaha!?

Rajeev: Uski aankho se. She speaks with her eyes.

Sai: Thike, ab mujhe kuch samaj nahi aa raha, ki aakhir tum mere sath mazak kar rahe ho kya?

Rajeev: Ye mazak nahi hai. You have wonderful eyes, and we wanted to see if-

Sai: Ki mein ek german Shepherd ban sakti hu ya nahi.

Rajeev: Kya Divya wahi hai? Cause I haven't thought of it yet...

Sai: Thike. I've tried to be patient. Par mujhe iss job ki kitni bhi zarurat ho, mein nahi kar sakti.

Rajeev: Par tumne toh abhi tak pada bhi nahi hai. C'mon, give it the old college try!

Sai(controlling her anger) : Rajeev? Can I call you Rajeev?

Rajeev: Zarur!

Sai: Tum ue kaise expect kar sakte ho ki mein apne aakhon se ek kutte ka role play karungi?

Rajeev: Dekho, jab hume production mil jayegi, tab hum CG use karenge,agar fund mila toh.

Sai: Agar fund mila toh?

Rajeev: Abhi ke liye hum producers ko doond rahe hai jo isse kickstart de sake.

The absurdity of it all hits her and she bursts out laughing.

Sai: Suno, mujhe chunne ke liye shukriya, par sachme, aise ideas tumhe kahi nahi leke jayegi.

Rajeev: Tumhe jaanna hoga, humare ek producer ne kaha hai ki ye bohot hit hoga.

Sai: Acha? Who's the producer?

Rajeev: Woh, meri maa, par...

For the first time in life, Sai is utterly speechless.

Sai: Tumhare haath mein jo clipboard hai, usme kuch important hai bhi ya woh bhi tumhare mom ke kuch "I love you beta" note hai?

He literally looks down at it as if to double-check. He glances back up with a frown.

Rajeev: Hum dono barabar age ke hai. We're wasting time.

Sai: Ha waste kar rahe hai kyuki ye show time worthy nahi hai.
