Everything is Only for You (Complete)

Chapter 65

"Did you get the story?", a lean man in his 50's says. Sidharth sits with Sana in a sophisticated big office. There are two more people sitting beside him, smiling at them. Sid nods his head in an awkwardly manner. The man sitting in front of them wears a flashy purple shirt with cream trousers and expensive shoes and watch. He wears a thick golden chain in his neck and a golden rimmed spectacle with a golden chain dangles above his chest. He is one of the top producers in Bollywood industry, Vasu Bhandari. Beside him sits the director, a tall and thin man with grey hair, wearing a brown Kurta, Abhinav Verma. And the other young man is the music director. This clean shaven, short haired man is Arshad Mallik who is wearing a blue short Kurta over a ripped denim jeans.

Vasu Bhandari says,"You try and understand what should be the feel of the song. Emotions and everything. We want two songs now from you. You can discuss it with Abhinav here. After you finish writing then we can hold a session with Arshad here. What do you say Abhinav?" Abhinav nods his head and says,"Yes. You are new but don't worry. You just do what you are good at, writing. Rest we will handle. Afterall Asitavji had spoken such highly of you, we really want to work with you." Sid looks at Sana and she cheerfully says,"He is indeed great poet. I am not just saying this because he is my husband but I have heard him." Vasu Bhandari says,"Ofcourse. I was present there at the party. I know. Well regarding agreements and everything Sana we have already discussed with you and your Manager. Do I need to tell Sidharth about it?" "No. I don't need to know all that. Tarun and Sana can handle all that. I..I don't need to know all that.", Sid replies. Sana smiles and says,"Yes. He is okay with everything. Just send the agreement when it is ready. Now we shall leave. It's already late."

Inside the car, Sana hugs Sid and with excitement she says,"I am so happy. Finally the world will know your talent. I had told you remember." Sid is silent and keeps looking outside the window. Sana puts her hand on his cheek and turns his face towards her,"Aren't you happy? What are you thinking?" Sid takes a deep breath and says,"I don't feel comfortable doing this. I don't know whether I can deliver what they are asking me." Sana looks at him and says,"Bebu.Stop thinking like that. See how much money they are ready to give for just two songs. If the songs are good, you will get more opportunities." "Is money everything?",Sid asks. Sana replies,"No. But it is important. You work two jobs and even take up work at Kabir Bhai's garage. Why? Just to earn some extra money. I don't want you to work so hand for few bucks." Sid whispers,"I don't lose my self-esteem by working in garage. If I have to do that ever for money, I will die Sana. Please make sure I don't have to do that ever.."

No..no..you see we need to match the words with the rhythm. Change it like I am saying, it will be nice then.", says a fat man in a red shirt says. They are at a recording studio with the singer, Ajit Sinha,  a young man in his late 20's in a plain khadi shirt and cotton pants and a glasses. The director Kiran Raj, a lean man in 50's with salt and pepper hair, in a grey short Kurta and horn rimmed glasses, is present there too. Sidharth says,"Jatin ji, try and understand, the words you want me to add, changes the entire meaning of the song. The song is about his feelings when the guy sees her the first time. The words will sound vulgar." Ajit says,"Jatin ji, Sidharth is right. Sidharth can you change it in some other way to match the tune?"

Before Sid could reply, Jatin, the music director says,"Ajit I respect you as tum abhi demand mein ho, but don't forget I am the top music director in the industry. I know which type of songs sells. Sidharth listen isse badal do like I am saying." Sidharth takes a deep breath and says,"Listen I respect you for being the top music director, I am not questioning your knowledge. But I don't think the song will be good to listen with such words." Jatin gets furious and looking at the director says,"Kahan se layeo isse. Songs get popular because of the music and singer, nobody tries to understand the lyrics. He is not Gulfam ji or Akram shahab that I have to listen to him. Only two songs under his belt that too hasn't been released yet and see the attitude." Kiran the director tries to cool everyone by talking to Jatin as well as to Sidharth. Jatin however does not listens to him,"Kiran if he is not doing what I ask him, I will walk out of your movie. You decide whether you want the best music director or a newbie writer. Just because Asitavji praised him and he is the husband of Sana, I have to listen to him? No way." Sidharth smiles and says,"No sir. You don't have to listen to me just because someone praised me or I am somebody's husband. Yes you are right, I am novice in the world of poetry, but I think I understand words more than you. If no one cares for the lyrics then anyone can write it for you. You don't need me. Kiran sir, I don't think you should lose the top music director for an amateur writer here. I will send the check back."
