Rock On!! Page #3

Synopsis: Sakshi Shroff, the lonely and neglected wife of busy banking executive, Aditya, decides to give him a surprise on his birthday on July 22nd, but ends surprising him not once but multiple times. While Aditya is thrilled to know that both are going to be parents, and did appear surprised by the celebration, bitterness creeps in when he notices that Sakshi had also invited some ghosts (Rob Nancy and Kedar Zaveri) from his past. This gives rise to unpleasant memories involving a failed music group 'Magik' that he had associated with about a decade ago. Sakshi will soon find out why Aditya is displeased with her; why the music group broke up, ending in violence and acrimony especially between her husband and his former friend, Joseph Mascarenhas; why they cannot perform together ever again; as well as contemplate moving out and living with her mom.

Saw an ad on TV some time ago,

the musicsounded like yours

Well...

You're really lucky, Rob

Still making musicafter all these years

Don't know how to do anything else, KD

And you? Still drumming?

I don't remember the last time

I touched drumsticks

But now you can afford

the world's best drum kit

Yes, I can

And I don't even have to go to a Dandiya-dance

- Dandiya?

Yeah! We bought equipment out of

our performance at the Dandiya!

How can I tell you...

what my heart says

You'd think, maybe I'm insane

How can I tell you

what my heart says

You'd think, maybe I'm insane

I want to get to the top of the TVtower

Scream out loud and say...

Rock On!

It's the sign of the times

Rock On!

Every moment beckons

Rock On!

What are you waiting for

Rock On!

You only live once

My heart tells me...

to scream out loud

Everyone...

should open their windows

Then I'll sing them my spirited songs

Let them join in and raise the cry

Come on, baby!

Come on Joe, come on

Just live your life...

the way you always wanted to

All I've got to say is...

make every single one

of your dreams come true!

Welcome to Channel V's Launchpad

From Bangalore, this is Chakravyuh

The world's full of snakes

They bite everyone

Sitting upon their coils

Hood outstretched

Snakes hiss

Toxic

Blacks, blues, yellows

Eyes of stone...

and sharp fangs

The world

is a jungle of snakes

There's a hood in every face

Sitting upon their coils,

hood outstretched,

hissing, waiting to strike

Toxic!

Blacks, blues, yellows

Eyes of stone...

and sharp fangs

All right! Let's hear it for Chakravyuh

Now, our next band,

from right here in Bombay

Fans say, there's magicin their music

Bombay, are you ready for them?

That's more like it

Let's welcome on stage, Magik

Hello, everyone

Hello, everyone!

Are you having a good time?

I said, are you having a good time?

All right!

I need your help for the next song

Will you sing with me?

Will you join me?

All right then, everyone

Let me see more hands

up in the air

Put your hands together

Everybody, sing with me

Come on

Louder

Way to go

Now... sing when I raise my hand

One of my laundry bills...

An unflnished novel...

Agirl's phone number...

A useful piece of paper...

In my deck, a king of hearts...

And one of my silver rings...

When I look at

what I lost this last week

Somedays I laughed at myself

and somedays I cried

One of my laundry bills

An unflnished novel

Agirl's phone number

A useful piece of paper

In my deck, a king of hearts

And one of my silver rings

When I look at

what I lost this last week

Somedays I laughed at myself

Somedays I cried

I got a gift,

a watch...

that I loved so much

Apacket of Mary Jane

My old denim jacket

Two passes for a cricket match

My brand new sunglasses

When I look at

what I lost this last week

Somedays I laughed at myself

and somedays I cried

How...

do I forget?

On day seven,

someone introduced you to me

at a party

What...

was in the moment...

when I saw you for the flrst time

When we flrst met...

I felt what love was

I lost my senses...

and my heart too

Somedays I laughed at myself

and somedays I cried

That was everything I lost

this last week

Put your hands together

One of my laundry bills

An unflnished novel

Agirl's phone number

A useful piece of paper

One of my laundry bills

An unflnished novel

Agirl's phone number

A useful piece of paper

When I met you flrst

I felt...

what love was

I lost my senses and

my heart too

Somedays I laughed at myself

and somedays I cried

Now's the time to find out

who the winner of the contest is

The winners get an album contract.

And at least one music video

I'm all nerves

Can you tell...

which lucky band's name

is in this envelope?

Magik

They're screaming for us!

All right, it's time to find out

And the winner is...

Magik

All right!

Watch it, buddy

Oops

Did I hurt you?

Oops! Did I hurt you?

Joe... Joe...

get off him

Joe! What are you doing?

Calm down

Just back off. Stop it

Picture this...

Someone insults Aditya

and Joe breaks out in a rash

And now...

How things change, man

Where's Joe these days?

Ran into him some months ago,

at Purple Haze Studio

He has so much talent,

but business sense... zero

Joe... when will he learn

it's important to market oneself?

Let's go meet him

It'll be great if you invite him

to Aditya's party

No, don't try to use me to do this

Come on Rob, you always knew

how to handle them

I mean, that was why

we tolerated you in the band

Hello

Anybody in?

Oh my God... KD?

- Wow... Joe!

Good to see you man

How are you?

Good

Rob...

Come, sit

How're you doing?

All okay?

Getting along

I teach guitar to kids

in the neighbourhood

And once in a while,

I perform live at a club

It's all good, man

Good?

You're still performing on stage!

That's fantastic, Joe

It's nothing like those concerts

Here, people hang around,

party, talk, drink

What I'm playing makes

no difference to them

I know exactly what you mean

I played in a club once

I got so angry, felt like

hurling my keyboard at the crowd

You should have

That way your keyboard

would've been of some use

KD...

Did you know Aditya is also here

in Bombay

Really...?

No... how would I know?

His wife came to my store

And...

She has invited us home

For Aditya's birthday party

22nd...?

Look who's here

Debbie... oh wow!

Good to see you

Who's this?

- Andrew

Hi, Uncle Rob

Hi, Andrew! I'm KD

Magik's drummer?

How old is he?

He'll turn eight this year

Unbelievable!

Debbie, I'll hand it to you!

You don't look like the mother

of an eight year old

Thank you

But in that outfit, you look

like a typical businessman

Even Rob looks different

in his close crop, doesn't he?

Long hair is no longer in fashion

You're saying this?

Someone who'd brush his hair

before brushing his teeth!

Why don't you just admit it,

you're losing your hair

Show me how you'd flick the

sticks in the air and catch them

Hey, who told you?

Who else?

At bedtime, Andy listens to only one story.

Magik's

Debbie, we're planning a reunion.

Next week. At Aditya's

Why don't you join us

and bring Andrew along

Reunion?

So the two of you are here with

a message from Aditya, the star?

It's not like that, Debbie

Please, KD

All these years you weren't even in touch.

Why now?

Sorry about that, guys

Debbie is really stressed out

because of work

She doesn't mean it, you know that

It's okay

Hey Andrew...

next time, I'll show you

the magicof drumsticks

Promise

I'll call you guys

Say bye, Andy

Bye

Good to see you, Joe.

- Same here, man

It'll be good if you guys come

Think about it. Okay?

Yeah, man

I couldn't believe these guys, Joe

They come around after years,

that too with an invite from Aditya

If it was so important,

couldn't he have phoned himself?

It's a surprise party, Debbie.

His wife is organizing it

Oh... how sweet!

Joe, please...

Keep away from them
