Rock On!! Page #7

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.

Oh my god!

Tanya!

Hey Tanya...

Look at you!

What are you doing here?

The last time we met... was...

- Ages

Hi, Joe

Good to see you

How's Debbie?

She's fine

You look great.

- Thank you

Hey, glad you guys could make it

So you met my wife?

Of course, you know each other

I'm sure, you've a lot to catch up

You're okay?

Got to get myself a drink. Excuse me

I don't believe this

Remember, he and Joe scrapped...

KD, shut up.

- Oh, of course

We were so immature

Back then, even I thought

Ajay was a little weird

But after we became friends,

I got to know he's a nice guy

And I'm happy to be with him

Cheers

I need a drink, man.

KD... drink?

Yeah

You need something?

- No, thank you

We'll see you soon.

- Yeah

Looking great.

- Thanks, KD

Hey Tanya

Hi

Tanya, I'm sorry,

for leaving the way I did

I found your note

I knew then,

you weren't coming back

Really?

Then, you knew more

about me than I did

Yes

Let bygones be bygones

But at least, you've got a second chance,

to perform with Magik

Life's rarely this generous with everyone

That's true

You know,

I had put all that musicbehind me

But because of my wife Sakshi,

it's happening all over again

Adi...

That's her... Sakshi

Hi

Tanya, a very old friend of mine

I wanted to thank you

Me?

If I hadn't seen your photographs,

I'd have never known Aditya had a band

First, I was afraid

I was petrifled

Kept thinking, I could never live

without you by my side

Save the guests I am coming

But I spent so many nights

thinking how you did me wrong

I grew strong

I learnt how to carry on

And so you're back

From outer space

I just walked in to flnd you here

with that sad look upon your face

I should've changed my stupid lock

I should've made you leave your key

If I'd known for just one second

you'd be back to bother me

Go on now, go...

walk out the door

Just turn around now

'cause you're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one who tried

to hurt me with goodbye

You think I'd crumble,

you think I'd lay down and die

Oh no, not I, I will survive

As long as I know how to love,

I know I'll stay alive

I've got all my life to live

I've got all my love to give

And I'll survive, I will survive

Hey, hey

KD... I don't know these songs

You have to sing

KD... I only know Hindi songs

So...?

Come on

Strange story it has been

Where it began

Where will it all end

What destinies await us

Neither he knows, nor I

Strange story it has been,

Where it began

Where will it all end

What destinies await us

Neither he knows, nor I

Why does smoke...

obscure the lamplight?

In my dreams...

I have woken up from my dream

Talk to him...

- But Rob isn't taking my call

He must be busy.

- But he would answer...

Let's go to his place

No way, KD

Adi, talk to him.

- KD...

It's on our way back,

let's go there

No... no way

I'll drop you to the car

I'll see you outside

Yes, but please come back.

- Yeah

See you, girls

Rob...!

Hey KD...

Rob...

Rob, KD can't live without you

Hey Rob

Holy sh*t! Rob!

Guys... Adi...

Hang in there

You'll be fine, hang in there

Adi, take the next right

Sh*t!

So what if it's a No Entry?

He's passing out

Rob, look at me, man... Rob

Just hang on... hang on...

we're reaching the hospital

You'll be fine,

you're going to make it

You see this?

I'm sorry,

but your friend has

a grade Four brain tumour

Have you told Rob...

that he has brain tumour?

He knows

What?

He tells me he's had some

chemotherapy sessions

And he's taking medication too

Why didn't he tell us?

What good would it do?

You'd re-unite Magik thinking,

poor Rob's dying

I didn't want that

If we are to get together again,

it has to be because...

we believe in Magik's music

and we believe in each other

But you don't believe we're your friends

Isn't that right?

It's not that, KD.

This tumour has become a part of my brain

I'm beyond curing. That's a fact

Two days, two months, two years...

How much longer will I live...?

I'm sick of thinking about that

Rob... listen to me

Dr Shetty is the country's

best neurosurgeon

I'll talk to him

We'll shift you to his personal clinic

You'll be all right.

- What the hell are you saying, Aditya?

Our show is on the 24th

... day after tomorrow

Have you gone mad?

Forget the show!

No, Aditya

This show is very important for me,

perhaps my last chance

Don't you get it?

Where the hell were you?

You know how worried I've been?

What's wrong with you?

After you left, the cruise guys called.

Your visa is done

The ship is leaving tomorrow

and you're going to be on it

What's the matter, Joe?

Debbie... Rob

And all these days,

you were lying to me?

This Magik and all this...

Can't you see there's no future in it?

Whenever it comes to this band,

why does your brain switch off, Joe?

I don't care

You're going on that cruise and that's final

Debbie, please

I've got another chance to do

what I've always wanted to...

I don't know how to do anything else

And now Rob...

- Stop it Joe

Agreed, what happened to Rob is terrible

But don't you see that your wife

has been dying a slow death for ten years?

And Andy...

have you ever considered

his future?

In life, you've got to make compromises

I wanted to become a fashion designer

Now look at me

I'm working your goddamned

family fish-business

And what of Magik?

You want to be a rock star at your age?

Use your head, Joe

Have you learnt nothing in ten years?

You're ready to trust the same man again

These are the dresses you asked for

We really didn't have it in your palette,

so I got you this

I want to see the red one

Would you like to try it on?

- Sure

Ms Debbie is here to meet sir

Ask her to sit down. I'm coming

Hi Debbie

Welcome

Such a pleasure to meet you

You know, I've met your son Andrew

Congratulations

Oh... it's showing

Yes, there's a glow on your face

Is Aditya in?

- Please sit in the study

I'll call him

Debbie...? Hi

I've been asking Joe about you

for ages

Sit

Will you have a drink?

How've you been?

Not okay

But... you seem to be doing fine,

like always

I'm sorry...?

Some people have all the luck,

they get whatever they want

Like you

You were a hero in college,

the creative rebel

And now, a successful businessman

Fantastichouse

Pretty wife

And soon, a father

Everything a man can ask for...

I can't tell if you're complimenting me or not

I'm just speaking the truth

Or you can take it this way...

I'm pointing out what sets you apart from Joe

Joe... Joe isn't lucky like you, Aditya

He's fought against life at every step

And such was his luck...

most often, he failed

Please, stop showing him these new dreams

Because when these dreams shatter,

the shards will wound my life... Andrew's life

What are you trying to say?

If Joe goes for the show tomorrow,

he'll lose a very good job

Just let him go, Aditya. Please

He still has fever, 102 degrees

I'm fine doctor

The fever will vanish

the moment I get out of here
