Fog of Love

Part 5 Nostalgia

Shaheer's POV

I was surprised when someone back hugged me, while I was giving interview and even the paparazzi present there, laughed at me. I wasn't able to move as he was tightly clutching me. And at the very moment realised it's none other than my hathi!!
"Bhrata bheeeeem" I shrieked as I turned and hugged him again. He has come! Woahhh! I couldn't control my excitement. It seems I have seen him after ages.

He came back! Woah! "Tumne to mana kardia tha.. ke WWE chal raha hai..mai nahi aa raha..blah blah! Ab kese?"

"Bhaiii surprise nam ki chiz bhi hoti hai" Saurav replied.

"Or kya..or jab surprise dene wale itne perfectionist ho to sabko ullu banane me maja bahut aata hai!" Rahul Tewary sir popped from behind.

"Aapko pata tha..humara hathi aa raha hai?"

"Or kya..ye 13 tarik ko aagya..humse bat ki...ke reunion wale din hi pata lagna chahiye ke mai aaya hu. Sabko surprise dena tha.." Rahul sir explained while I was having tears of joy in my eyes seeing my bestest friend.

How I used to comment on his pics "ghar aaja Pardesi tera des bulaye re", how every single time me and Rohit used to ask him to come back. I'm so so so happy!! I hugged him again when Siddharth sir called me "Shaheer ander aaja, tu vese b late hai..sab already aa chuke hain!"
I signalled him and me, Rahul sir and my hathi entered the venue after posing together for the media happily.

Vin, Lavanya, bade bhaiya (Rohit), Madhav, Shafaq, Paras, Mallika, Arav, Shaintani, Sameer sir, Praneet, Riya, humare Dhritrashtra ji (Anup), Ahem, Arpit (he seemed the most excited among us), Nirbhay, Suhani, Ratan, Naveen, Garima, Veebha..and every single person of our team was there to grace the occasion. Even our costume designers, the dop, Ajay, Atul sir and other music composers singers...the young actors who are now grown ups..who played our bachpan and our kids were also there..everyone was present... except Panchali.
"Now I understand why it took you 2 months to arrange this reunion sir." Riya commented.

"Absolutely! But it's amazing" Shafaq said.

"Ha sabko dekh kar bhut acha lag raha hai. Bhut bhut acha" Arpit said.

"Abhi sab nahi hai yaha." I murmured when Vin cut me.

"Aapne kuch kaha kya bhrata Arjun?"

"Parth sakhi nahi aayi abhi?" Sourabh asked with a mischievous smile on his face.

"Mujhe kya.."

"Use kya pata hoga Vasudeva? Sawal to mai puchta hu sath me Ruchika ko nahi laye?" Rohit spoke, pulling my leg. I simply laughed but how should I tell them that we are on verge of breaking up. "Maine to use aaj ki party ke bare me bhi nahi bataya..time hi ni h uske pass mere liye!" I thought in my mind. 

"Vese jab Draupadi hi nahi hogi..to reunion kesa?" Ahem said and I nodded my head in a yes like a kid.

"Arre guys chill! Vo traffic me hai, aane wali hai!" Veebha said and I felt relieved.

"Arre aap bhi aayi hain!? Choti si kanya hume dikhi hi nahi!" Lavanya said and Veebha slapped him on his back laughing.

Soon there were different groups, and I was standing with my paplu taplu.

"Bhaii tuje bata nhi sakta..kitni khushi hui hai aaj tuje dekh kr " Rohit spoke to Bheem.

"Exactly!" I cheered.

"Par teri nazare to kahi or hi hai!" Saurav said when suddenly Madhav popped from behind "sakhi ka intezaar hai! Or kya!!"

"Kya kehte rehte ho aap yaar!" I replied back.
