SHOT 4
OBEROI MANSION,
Everyone was having breakfast.
Dadi: Everyone is here, then where is Om?
Anika: Dadi, I’ll call him. You all continue.
Rudra: Bhabhi, you wait, I’ll go and bring O.
Anika smiles and Rudra goes towards Om’s room.
As Rudra was walking towards the staircase, he is shocked to see Shreya standing near the entrance.
Rudra: Bhaiya…. Shivaay Bhaiya…. Bhabhi…. Everyone come fast.
Oberois and Shreya are shocked seeing him shouting like this. Om, who was coming down is also confused as to why Rudra is shouting like this.
Omkara: Rudra, are you mad? Why are you shouting like this?
Rudra: O…. Wo….
Janhvi: Rudra, what happened to you?
Pinky: Oh my mata…. Ishana….
Shakti: Pinky, now what happened to you?
Shreya: I think they are shocked because of me.
All of them turned towards the door, and are shocked to see Shreya.
Soumya: Ishana Bhabhi….
Dadi: Ishana puttar….
Omkara: Dadi…. Wo….
Before Om could complete his sentence, Shreya takes blessings from all elders.
Pinky: Ishana beta, where were you?
Shreya: Actually aunty Wo….
Omkara: Choti maa…. She is not Ishana…. She is Shreya…. Shreya Maheshwari
All look at him shocked, while Shreya doesn’t know what to say.
Soumya: Bhaiya…. She looks exactly like Ishana Bhabhi….
Anika: I know even we were shocked when we met her at the award function.
Shreya: I am sorry; I should have informed you all before coming.
Anika: Shreya, don’t think like this. We are glad that you came.
Dadi: Haa puttar, come have breakfast with us, we were having breakfast only.
Shreya: Sorry Dadi, not today. Actually, I came here to talk to Om.
Rudra: I knew it…. Aap toh O se hi milne aayengi…
Omkara: Shut up Rudra.
Rudra: O… You always do this…Aap…
Shivaay: Rudra, stop it, not now…. (He turns to Om)…. Om…. Take Shreya to your room….
Anika: Haa Shreya… Go with Om… You can talk there…
Janhvi: We all should also get back to our works.
All leave, now only Omkara and Shreya were standing there,
Shreya: I know I should’ve had told you before coming…. Because of me…. Your family….
Omkara: Shreya…. It is fine…. They all will be fine…. Come…. Let us go to my room….
Om walks ahead and Shreya follows him.
OMKARA’S ROOM,
Omkara: Please feel comfortable and have a seat.
Shreya: It is okay…. I am fine….
Omkara: You wanted to talk to me…. What happened?
Shreya: The thing is….
She gets up from her place, and looks around the room, her eyes fell upon Om-Ishana’s photo kept on the table, she walks to the photo, Om looks at her not knowing what she is thinking, she takes the photo frame in her hand,
Shreya: This is me according to you…. (Om looks at her confused)…. According to you…. I am Ishana….
She keeps the photo frame back and takes out something from her bag, she shows the photo to Om, and it was a photo of Yash-Shreya,
Shreya: And this is me according to Yash…. According to him…. I am Shreya….
She sits down, tears flow from her eyes, Om looks at her, and immediately sits beside her,
Omkara: Shreya…. Please don’t cry like this…. I know this is not easy for you….
Shreya: Om…. I don’t know what is happening in my life…. First the accident…. Then coma…. Then I lost my memory…. And now…. Now I don’t know my real self…. I don’t know who I am….. Sometimes I don’t understand why everything happened with me only…. What wrong have I done…. Why did all this happened with me only…. What should I do that my life becomes normal again…. I want to live in peace…. I want to know who I am…. Whether I am Ishana or I am Shreya…. Whatever it is…. I am ready to accept the truth…. I just want to know the truth….
She hugs Om and he is taken aback by her sudden action, she cries more, Om could feel her tears on his shirt, he didn’t know what to do and how to make her understand, he covers her with his arms and comforts her.
Sometime later, Shreya moves away and wipes her tears,
Shreya: Sorry…. I….
Omkara: It is okay…. Are you fine?
He gets up and fills the glass with water and gives it to Shreya. She drinks the water.
Shreya: I am fine now…. But….
Omkara: Jitna jyada sochogi, utna jyada pareshan hogi…. Main jaanta hu jab hume hamare sawalon ke jawaab nahi milte tab hamara maan kafi pareshan ho jaata hai…. Par sabhi sawalon ke jawaab hume dhundane nahi hote, kuch jawaab hume apne aap hi mil jaate hai…. Waqt ke saath jo dhundala dhikai de raha hai, wo saaf dikhne lagega…. Bas apne aap ko waqt do…. Kismat ne jo uljhaya hai, wo khud hi use suljha dega….
Shreya looks at him surprised.
Shreya: And what if I am not Ishana…. What if I am Shreya…. What will you do?
Om looks at her and smiles, she looks at him confused,
Omkara: If you are Shreya…. And you are not my Ishana…. Nothing will change for me…. Jaise ab tak apni Ishu ki yaadoin ke saath ji raha tha, waise hi jita rahunga…. But I’ll be happy for you…. That you got your answers and now you can live in peace….
Shreya: How can you be like this…. You have such a good heart….
Omkara smiles hearing this and Shreya smiles back.
Omkara: Now, don’t think much…. And take care of yourself….
Shreya: Yes… I should leave now….
Omkara: Come, I’ll drop you.
Shreya: It is okay…. I have my car….
Omkara: Oh yes…. I’ll accompany you till your car….
They both come down to the living room. Anika sees them coming down.
Anika: Shreya, you are going so soon?
Shreya: Yes Anika, wo I have to go.
Anika: Thodi der toh ruk jao, everyone will be happy.
Shreya: Sorry Anika, I would have stayed but…
Anika: I know you are worried that they’ll feel bad that you are not Ishana and you don’t want to hurt them.
Shreya: Yes Anika, I don’t want to hurt anyone.
Dadi: But who told you that you’ll hurt anyone.
They turn around and see Dadi standing there.
Dadi: Shreya puttar, if you stay here for some time, everyone will feel good only.
Anika: Now even Dadi is saying, please stay for some time.
Shreya: Okay…. I’ll stay for some time….
Anika: Come…. We’ll go to my room…. I’ll call Soumya also….
Om turns to go to his room when Anika calls him,
Anika: Om, where are you going? You can also join us.
Omkara: No Bhabhi…. I’ve some important work…. (He leaves from there)
OMKARA’S ROOM,
Om was standing near the window, looking out, lost in his thoughts,
Omkara (thinking): Whatever Shreya said…. She is right…. What will I do if she is not Ishana…. I strongly believe that she is Ishana…. But what if I am wrong…. What if she is not Ishana…. What will I do…. Will I be able to live peacefully…. Whenever I think about all this…. I feel I have to prove that she is Ishana…. But she is also right…. Maybe she is not Ishana and she is Shreya…. I have to prepare myself for whatever happens…. Whether it is according to me or not…. I’ve to be ready…. I have to be strong….
IN THE EVENING,
Shreya comes down with Anika and Soumya,
Shreya: I am glad that I met both of you…. I had such a nice time after a long time….
Soumya: Even we are glad that we met you that you came here….
Anika: Shreya, whenever you feel like meeting us, please feel free to come here….
Shreya: Of course but even you have to come to meet me….
Anika: Sure
OUTSIDE OBEROI MANSION,
Shreya takes there leave and walks outside, she reaches her car but she thinks something,
Shreya (thinking): I should have met Om once before leaving…. But if I go inside again what will everyone think…. I should not go inside….
She sits in her car, and looks at Oberoi mansion before leaving.
MAHESHWARI MANSION,
Shreya was going to her room when Yash calls her,
Yash: Shreya, where were you all day? You didn’t come to the office and you were not here also, where did you go?
Shreya: Yash…. Wo…. Actually….
Yash: What is it Shreya, why do I feel that you are hiding something?
Shreya: Yash, if I tell you something, will you believe me?
Yash: Why are you asking this question? Whatever you tell me, I’ll definitely believe you.
Shreya: Yash…. (She tells him everything about Oberois…. How she met Om in his art gallery…. About Ishana…. About Ishana’s accident)…. I don’t know what is right and what is wrong but Yash, it can be true that I am not Shreya but Ishana….
Yash was shocked hearing all this, he sits down on the sofa, Shreya feels bad seeing his state,
Yash: I don’t know what to say….
Shreya: Yash, I know this is not easy for you; even I was shocked when I got to know everything…. But I don’t know anything clearly…. Maybe I am Shreya…. I just have to find out the truth…. Something that’ll answer all my questions… But I don’t know how I’ll do any of this….
Yash: Shreya…. I have to tell you something…. Maybe that’ll help you in thinking clearly….
Shreya: What is it?
FLASHBACK TO FIVE YEARS AGO,
MAHESHWARI MANSION,
Yash was talking on phone to someone, Sumitra was crying sitting on the sofa and Sudhir was consoling her, Yash disconnected the call and looked sadly at his parents,
Sumitra: Yash, what did the police say? Did they find Shreya? Where is my Shreya? (She stands near Yash) Yash, I am asking you something, tell me, where is my daughter?
Yash: Mom, please calm down…. The police are looking for her…. Shreya will come home soon.
Sudhir: Sumitra, don’t worry; our daughter will come back soon.
FLASHBACK ENDS
Yash: The police looked for you everywhere… We continued with all our efforts…. However we could not find you…. But one day, when I was returning from a conference, I saw someone lying on the road…
FLASHBACK TO EIGHTEEN MONTHS AGO
Yash was driving back from office when he saw a girl lying near the road. He stopped his car and walked to the girl, she was badly injured, he decided to take her to the hospital and he turned her around, he was shocked to see her,
Yash: Shreya
FLASHBACK ENDS
Yash: That night I found you lying on the road…. I immediately took you to the hospital…. The doctor told me that you have slipped into a coma…. After few days, we brought you home….. And then you were in a coma for almost six months…
Shreya was shocked listening to all this,
Shreya: That means I was not with you all before the accident…. That means I am not Shreya…. I am Ishana…. But….
Yash: I know we thought that we would not tell you all this…. But it is true before your accident, you were missing for almost three years…. But when we found you, we were so happy that we didn’t even think that something like this could happen…. I don’t know what is true…. But maybe you are Ishana….
Shreya: How will we know what is right and what is the truth?
Yash: I don’t know but we’ll think of something soon…. And you don’t worry, whatever is the truth…. You are and will always be my sister and we are always there with you….
Shreya hugs Yash,
Shreya: I know that you are always there with me.
Yash: Now, don’t think so much. We’ll talk about this tomorrow. Let’s have dinner, Mom-Dad are waiting.
OBEROI MANSION,
Anika was lost thinking about something when Shivaay comes there,
Shivaay: What are you thinking?
Shivaay’s voice brought her out of her thoughts,
Anika: I was thinking that we can forget many things in our life but not those moments that change everything about our lives.
Shivaay: What do you mean Anika?
Anika: I mean we don’t forget those moments that have a deep impact on our lives….. Just think about it…. Will you ever forget about your accident…. Events like these are difficult to get over from….
Shivaay: You are right, I’ll never forget about that accident…. It changed our life so much…. But why are you thinking all this?
Anika: I was thinking whether she is Shreya or she is Ishana, she might remember something about her accident…
Shivaay: But Anika, you know naa she has lost all her memories from before the accident…. If she knew about her accident…. She would have told us….
Anika: Maybe she doesn’t remember anything clearly, but what if she has some faint memories…. If we trigger those memories…. Maybe she’ll remember about her accident and that can make everything clear…. If she is Ishana, she’ll remember that you were with her….. And…. (She stops suddenly when she sees Om standing near the door)….
Omkara: And if she is Shreya…. She’ll remember her real self….
Shivaay turns around and sees Om,
Anika: Om….
Shivaay: Om, we were just talking like that….
Omkara: Shivaay, it is fine…. I know you both are worried for me and are trying to make things fine….
Anika: Shivaay, Om, I think I have an idea that can help us…. (She tells them something)
Omkara: But Anika… This can be dangerous also…. What if something happens?
Shivaay: Don’t worry Om, nothing will happen… We are there naa….
Anika: Then, we’ll call her tomorrow.
Shivaay: I think we should inform Yash before we do anything.
Omkara: But will he believe us….
Shivaay: Don’t worry, I’ll talk to him.
Anika: So tomorrow, we’ll do it.
KEEP READING AND SMILING!!!!
TAKE CARE, STAY AT HOME AND STAY SAFE!!!!
