Predicament of a Girl
A romantic and sentimental thriller
Kotra Siva Rama Krishna
“I know it is very much hard on you.” Sarath said while they both were going through the script of that major scene together. “I hope this also would go as smooth as that scene on the river bank then.”
“It is not going to be as hard as that scene.” Charitha tried to smile but she could not. “Atleast there will be no public audience here.”
“You are right!” Sarath nodded his head. “But I am feeling very much worry for one thing.” Suddenly his face was clouded with a sad feeling.
“What is that one thing?” Charitha knitted her brows together and she started feeling an unknown fear.
“My character in this movie would come to an end very soon. There will be no me in this movie after dropping you in that brothel house.” Sarath sighed heavily. “So far you have become a very good friend to me. I just don’t like to leave you and go.”
“You are absolutely right.” Charitha nodded her head with a sudden unhappy feeling in her face. She did not think about that till that moment. “It is just because of you I am feeling comfortable to act. In whichever way you may feel, I should say one thing here. There is a sort of feeling in me towards you and I just don’t know what it is exactly.”
That much was absolutely true. So far she has been attracted so much to him and she would not hesitate to say it was love. She was eagerly waiting to hear what he was going to say.
“It is quite natural to feel like that when man and woman behave in close proximity like this.” He said with a smile but it was like a whiplash to her. “But I must say you have become a good friend to me and I really do feel a lot to leave you.”
Charitha has felt deep disappointment, insult and anger on herself as she opened herself to him so without knowing what he was feeling about her. It was just like a huge stone has been dropped in her heart and she could not talk anything for few seconds. Sarath also did not talk anything as if he understood her dilemma.
“I am feeling happy that you are considering me as a good friend of you. Shall we both go through the script carefully then? I want it to be okayed at the first shoot itself.” She just did not know how she managed to say it then.
“Why not? I also have the same intention.”
Then they both have started going through the script but Charitha could not put her mind completely on that.
***
Pramod came from the college and busied himself for studying in his room as the final exams for his final year B.Com were coming nearer. In before he has to feel lot of tension because of his family’s financial obligations but now the situation has been completely changed and he could fully concentrate on his studying. He got good marks till now in all the exams and he wanted to score just like that in his final year examinations also. His goal was to become a chartered accountant and the fear he was feeling until recently that they would not have born the expenditure for it was disappeared completely after his family became financially comfortable.
He was disturbed with a phone call to his cell phone while he was doing accounts with all the concentration. When he took the phone into his hands and looked at the screen, it was his friend Ananth.
“Hello.” Pramod said with irritation as he did not want to be disturbed at that time.
“I have sent you a video clip of the you-tube through whatsapp just now.” Ananth said. “You phone to me after you have seen that.” After seeing that Ananth cut off the call.
The irritation in Pramod has grown even more and with little bit surprise also he went to his whatsapp and to that video clip. He downloaded that video clip, it started playing and it was one minute or so of length video clip. At first Pramod could not understand what he was looking at and when he understood that, his mouth agaped and his whole heart was filled with intensive shock!
The woman in that video clip was his sister Charitha in single piece bikini! It was in fact accentuating her nudity rather than covering it. Every youth organ was being exposed so much and she just came onto the bank from a river like something and put her both hands on her head exposing her milky armpits. Then a man came behind of her, hugged her from the back and was kissing on her neck.
Pramod could not see anything more and the cell-phone was dropped from his hands onto the floor there. His mind has become numb and his mouth has become dry. Even though he knew that his sister was acting in a sexy movie, he did not expect at all that something like this he has to see. Once the shock was over, he started feeling anger, insult and hurt. While he was struggling himself with feeling like these, the cell phone rang again.
“Have you seen that? You never have told us that your sister is acting in movies.” It was his friend Ananth again and as Pramod did not phone to him in the expected time, he phoned himself. On more than an occasion Ananth came to the house of Pramod, he saw and knew about Charitha.
“You shut-up rascal! It is not my sister at all.” Pramod yelled angrily. “How dare you to send that video clip and talk like this with me?”
“But she is hundred percent just like your sister!” Pramod could sense surprise in the voice of his friend.
“There are people resemble people. It is not my sister at all.” Pramod was still very much angry. “My sister is doing a job and is leading a decent and dignified life.”
“I am sorry. I am absolutely sorry then.” His friend cut of his phone call as if he did not know what to say more.
As soon as his friend cut off his phone call, Pramod covered his face with both of his hands burst into weeping and slumped himself onto the floor there.
“What happened? What happened brother?” Ragini after finding her brother so hastily came to him and asked him putting her right hand on his right shoulder.
“I know it would be like this.” Amidst his weeping Pramod said. “That was why I did not like her acting at all.”
“First tell me what has happened?” with a quickening heart Ragini asked him.
“No. I don’t want to say anything to you. Just get of this place. It is you who from the beginning encouraged her to do that.” Removing her hand from his shoulder, Pramod angrily yelled.
While they both were talking like that, their parents Vasantha Rao and Sulochana also came there.
“What’s happening here? Why you both are quarrelling like this?” Vasantha Rao asked them looking into the face of Ragini as Pramod was still weeping covering his face in his hands.
“That is what I also want to know.” With irritation and fear in her face, Ragini said. “Pramod came to know something and from that moment became upset like this. But he did not want to say that to me.”
“What is that tell me Pramod?” Sulochana came near to Pramod and put her both hands on his shoulders. “There is no use in worrying yourself all alone like this. Tell us also what it is?”
“No, mom. Nothing much serious. I just........I just felt like that with a little bit of news and became upset. You people go away without disturbing me and I have to study seriously for my final year examinations.” Pramod removed his mother’s hands, got off from the floor, wiped off tears on his both cheeks with his right hand still holding the cell-phone with his left hand and then said.
“With little bit of news you have become this much upset? Are you thinking that we are just fools?” Vasantha Rao angrily said.
“Dad, please. Don’t press me about it and leave me to study. You know my final examinations are not far away.”
“We sure do leave you alone to your studies and go away but first tell us what it is?” Sulochana also was feeling so much fear and anxiety.
“I just cannot. You all please get out of this place!” Pramod vehemently yelled.
“What, what the bloody hell that news would be?” Sulochana asked looking into the face of Ragini with increasing anxiousness.
“I cannot say what exactly it is but I can guess with what it related. It certainly relates to our sister’s acting in that movie.” Ragini said “He is blaming me that it is I who encouraged her to do that from the beginning.”
“Its a Tamil movie and it is not going to be released in our state.” With surprise and anxiousness Vasantha Rao said. “Moreover it is impossible to complete that movie this fast and release it either into the theatres or apps.”
“It is not a movie but it is a teaser.” Pramod knew he could not escape without saying that. “A teaser of that movie has been released into the you-tube and it is full of our sister.”
“A teaser?” Ragini said and they three looked into the faces of each other. “How you have seen and where you have seen? Let us also see it.”
“It is better that none of you do see it.” Pramod anxiously said. “I don’t want you three also suffer just like I am now.”
“Shut your mouth and let me see it.” Ragini angrily said. “Moreover how do you come to know about it?”
“Ananth sent a link of it through whatsapp.” Pramod sighed heavily and said. “I said to him it is not our sister at all. He believed it and there is no problem.”
“Anyhow let me see that teaser.” Ragini said and forcibly took the cell phone from his hands.
“Sister I suggest you not to see that at all.” While Ragini opening the cell phone by entering the password of it as she knew the password of that cell phone, Pramod said. “You just cannot stay peaceful after saying that.”
But as if she did not listen anything he said, Ragini went to his whatsapp found that video-link and as it was already downloaded it was started playing with the simple touch of her. Ragini’s mouth was agaped while she was watching that teaser. Her hand was tightened around the phone while Sarath was kissing Charitha like that hugging her from behind.
“What you are looking at? Let me also look at the same.” Sulochana tried to grab the cell-phone from her daughter’s hands.
“No, mom, please.” Ragini threw the cell-phone onto the bed there, hugged her mother and burst into weeping. “You better don’t see it at all.”
“What is that much wrong with it?” Sulochana’s heart missed a beat and her anxiousness and fear have become maximum.
“No mom, nothing wrong with it.” Ragini relieved her mother, hurriedly wiped her tears away with her right hand and said. “It is just so in the movie field but it will be very hard on you to see your own daughter like that.”
“But I want to see.........” Sulochana tried to say something.
“Mom, please.” Ragini’s voice was firm interrupting her mother. “There is nothing wrong in that but it will be quite painful to you and dad to see your own daughter so. We know it will be so and there is no necessity to worry about it. Just forget about the whole thing and don’t press me to show that to you.”
