Chapter 3: Fake World
Filmfare after party
The night of the stars. The biggest award night of bollywood. And the one and only Saifeena was there. Saif was wearing a classic black Armani suit and Kareena was wearing a red Manish Malhotra Saree.
"Manish! It's so plain! Only a sequin border! I will look good na?" she had asked her favorite fashion designer.
"You will absolutely look fabulous Bebo! Red is your color. Whenever you have worn read you set fire on the screen. Remember "you are my Sonia" of K3G, the red lehenga in "Main Prem ki Deewani Hoon" or the 2 piece in Ashoka!"
"God Manish you are an encyclopedia of me!" Kareena had made a face at him.
"Ahmm Mrs Saif Ali Khan, those were my designs too!" they both had laughed.
Kareena also wore sindoor on her forehead and she looked ravishing indeed.
It was a larger than life event. Sahrukh khan was there with Gauri, Salman khan, Hrittik Roshan, Priyanka, dipeeka, Katrina, Amitav Bachchan, all the famous directors and producers were there too. But the gossip of the party was something else. It was Hrittik and Sussan's divorce. No one knew the real reason behind it but that's what makes the gossip spicy- no one needs truth, the lake of truth is better for some. But of course no one was saying anything on Hrittik's face.
When Saif went to talk to someone, Hrittik came to Bebo.
"So, Hrittik Roshan is divorced! Have heard that?" Hrittik's eyes twinkled like before.
"Unfortunately I had to hear the heartbreaking news." Said Bebo calmly. She really felt sad for him when she 1st got the news from Karan.
"Heartbreaking! Really?" Hrittik teased her.
"Shut up Duggu!" Bebo frawned. " Cut the crap and listen, have you talked to Karan?"
"Oh yes! It is actually a brilliant idea!" he seemed excited, "Specially, we'll get to work together again and I think press and audience will go crazy!"
They were talking about Shudhhi and Bebo was feeling good about the thought of doing a movie together but also guilty of still not telling Saif about it, then she noticed that Saif was coming and his ex girlfriend Roza was trying to hit on him. Saif was just trying to avoid her but she somehow was determined to touch him! Bebo got furious. She just walked there and said to her, "Do you have a problem here?"
Roza looked at Bebo as if she is the unwanted 3rd person and turned to, "Saif, it seems you have company."
Saif was more offended by it than Bebo, "You can't talk to my wife like this. Just leave now."
"As you wish my ex boytoy," said Roza and turned to Bebo, "Your husband loves wine. Specially this one" and she spilled wine from her glass to Bebo's saree.
"What the!" Bebo was almost going to hit her but controlled herself. She looked in Roza's eyes and calmly said, " You are not worth my anger".
But unfortunately everyone in the party saw the whole drama. Bebo knew it was going to be a national news now.
She was right. Bad press again. It was all over the t.v. "Really don't they have anything else to be bothered about? Like..like vote or something?"
Mumbai Times said that Kareena is insecured . It really hurt Bebo. This media makes any kind of story without even trying to understand the situation. Tears rolled down on her cheeks. Saif came out from the bathroom and saw her crying. He just came to her and hugged her tightly. That hug was what she needed the most at that moment. She cried more.
"Shhh.. shhh please stop Bebo. No, no more crying" he comforted her. She just let her heart out, "Kjo wants to cast me with Hrittik!"
Saif looked at her in disbelief. "Are you crying so long for this reason?" and he rolled on the bed laughing, "That's great Bebo! What did you think I'll have a problem about you working with Hrittik! Haha"
Bebo sniffed her nose, "I wasn't crying for that though!"
Saif kissed on her nose and gave her a bear hug.
Later that day when she went to an ad shoot she heard all the stylists and makeup artists talking bad about Roza. Bebo knew that before she came there they were probably gossiping about her after reading the news. She knows how gossip works, it always happens on your back. She realized that all these people are just pleasers. She felt disgusted and thought that people are thinking she is weak. So Kareena Kapoor Khan decided to take revenge.
And she dialed a number.
