Nothing yet.

Not good?

Oh, horrible.

Actually, I don't know

a lot about wines.

Don't worry there are

very few over here who do.

At least you are honest.

Ross, two glasses of Merlot, please.

- Try this, you'll like it.

- Okay.

Still the same.

You've either tried wine for...

...the first time or had a lot of it.

That's why you can't tell the difference.

- By the way, I am Abhijeet Sarin.

- I know you, everybody knows you.

- I am Meghna Mathur.

- Now I know you.

Want to try something more interesting?

- Yes... - Come, let's go.

- Okay. Come.

Cheers.

These models are so thin.

I've heard they do drugs?

I don't know. Not all of them,

maybe a few.

And guess what, Sheetal...

I heard that designer

Varun Ramani's wife is...

having an affair with her gym instructor.

Then you know the latest.

Rajan Sodhi has hidden

cameras in his wife's bedroom.

- And?

- And guess what, she got caught.

What are you saying?

I just don't understand. How can

people get into such situations?

Does she know this?

You seem quite intelligent.

So what's this craze for modelling?

You too are intelligent and

are also in the same business.

So the comparison is with me...

It's not like that...

It doesn't matter.

I judge people by their ambition.

Really, so what do you think of me?

You've hardly told me

anything about yourself...

What can I say?

Like thousands of girls...

I too want to be a successful model.

- But there's a small difference.

- What's that?

That I'm better than the rest.

That you are.

- Come, let's go.

- Yes.

You know you're very lucky,

Meghna... What?

You've been meeting these people...

Kartik... Sarin.

The formula to this business is...

the right timing, knowing the right

people and the right publicity.

I've thought about it.

I will feature you in Leena Mehta's show.

- Really? Yeah.

- It is a big show.

Everything is happening so quickly...

...don't get overconfident.

This is just the first step.

Everything depends on what

you make of this opportunity.

And, where you want to go from here.

I know where I want to reach.

- Shona...

- Ritu? Why is she calling you?

- Shona my phone...

- You told me she doesn't call you.

Shona, give me my phone...

- Why did you lie to me?

- Leave my phone.

- Why is she calling you? You fool! You lied to me?

- She needs help.

- Shona, give me my phone.

- Why? - What are you doing?

Are you the only one who can help her?

- Shona...

- You fool, you are doing it again. You are lying to me.

- Let me talk to her. I need to talk to her.

- Shona, leave it.

Shona!

You fool! I have a show tomorrow.

Come on, Shona. I told you

there is nothing like that.

She just needs help.

This is my Avant-garde collection.

It's completely different

from my earlier work.

I mean, this collection is inspired

by my childhood memories.

My mother, my grandmother!

You will see influences

of those images.

I don't know how it is going to be...

...accepted, but it is very special to me.

What's this? Made in Bangkok.

At least she should have taken

off the label before the show.

She gets it from the

Indra market in Bangkok...

and calls it her

Avant-garde collection.

Some designer.

Darling, you are looking beautiful.

Look here...

- Slowly, it hurts.

- Sorry.

Salim, darling.

I am the show stopper.

Come overfor my make-up

or should I stop the show?

- Can you just finish it by yourself?

- It is okay.

Thank you.

Yes, darling.

- You look sad.

- Not at all.

Would you like to go back?

No. Let'sjust do your make-up.

Please, show me. Show me.

Next... next.

- This?

- Yes. Print this.

- Okay.

- Thank you, bye.

Okay, ma'am. No problem.

Chandu, why are you

clicking a nobody?

Fool, do you know how

big a socialite she is?

Socialite? Once upon

a time she was a B-grade actress.

Today she is a self proclaimed

socialite and designer.

Are you kidding me?

She is at every function:

weddings, parties, awards...

She doesn't even spare baby showers.

Are you kidding me?

Baby shower?

Yes, even baby showers.

Delete her pictures. Terrible!

- Oh hi!

- How are you?

I am fine. What brings you here?

Well, I came to meet Leena.

Networking, you know.

I got to know that it is yourfirst show so...

- I came to wish you luck.

- Thanks.

- All the best. - Thanks.

Thank you. - And... - Thanks.

Don't be nervous,

you'll bejust fine, okay?

Pooja... isn't that Madhur Bhandarkar?

What's he doing with Rita?

He's probably doing his research.

He's making a movie on fashion.

He makes realistic films.

He won't even spare

the world of fashion.

Now remember, I want a lot of drama.

- Is that clear?

- Look at the clothes. They are so dramatic.

No expression. I just want you

to look straight, look strong...

...no smiles. Am I clear?

Binal, walk tall and beautiful.

- Meghna. This is a huge show for you.

- Yes.

I want lots of attitude.

Do you understand that?

- Yes... yes, ma'am.

- And Shonali... Shonali.

Yes, yes. I know, I am listening.

Alright. Great. Okay girls,

let's go out there and kill them.

Are you ready?

Come on. Let's go.

Okay girls, come on. Stand in a line.

Come on, we are ready

to start the show. Come on.

Yes, okay. Okay, she is on. She is on.

- Get out!

- Go Shonali, go.

Please, go.

"I shall give up my life."

"I shall give up my life."

"For your love, I shall give up my life."

"I shall give up my life."

"I shall give up my life."

"For your love, I shall give up my life."

"Your Kohl enchants me."

"It's the time to fall in love."

"I shall give up my life."

"I shall give up my life."

"For your love, I shall give up my life."

"I shall give up my life."

"For your love, I shall give up my life."

That was such an impressive show.

You were fantastic as always, Shonali.

Thank you so much.

Panache is extremely proud of you.

You are the face of Panache.

We'll have to extend your contract.

Oh, come on Abhi,

stop discussing work.

Shonali, join us for a drink.

- Come on...

- Yes, come on.

- Come on, let's go.

- Okay.

No. Really. Really.

Wasn't that amazing?

- She just walked on.

- Thank you.

And beyond looked at...

- You were fantastic, fabulous.

- Really?

- Really.

- Thank you. Thank you so much.

What grace... what poise... oh my God.

I was so nervous. Janet Sequeira!

- Rahul Arora!

- Oh my God.

- How long it has been?

- Six years.

Look at you.

How much weight have

you lost since college?

I had to diet to become a model.

And dieting made me like this.

You and diet?

- You know... Rohit, right?

- Yes.

- You know... when we were in college...

- Yes.

During college she used

to carry a box of sugar candy.

Sugar! Calories!

We all used laugh at her.

Should I reveal your secrets?

- Oh... no secrets, okay?

- Okay.

- Besides I am very upset with you.

- Why?

You are a model now and

you didn't even bother to call.

Rahul, you know this business.

You are an A list designer

and I'm a struggling B list model.
