Dil Se Dil Tak - A Meeting Point

The prince said, “Well when I had her glance of her, she looked “Pretty, lovely, gorgeous, great smile, winsome, attractive, appealing, pleasant, pleasing, endearing, charming, angelic, sexy, divine, stunning, statuesque, finely chiseled, fine-featured, striking, captivating, fascinating, enchanting, shapely, and buxom – now with all these features, go ahead and draw her painting. I would like to see this painting by tomorrow morning and if you fit the criteria, I shall give you a thousand gold coins”. Although, the old painter was puzzled up how he is going to give shaped to the Prince’s description but the 1000 gold coins tempted him enough to give it a try.

He reaches home and starts to draw but no matter what he tries, nothing seem to fit the description good enough. He is all sad and angry at himself and then he thinks maybe its better to take a break, go on a walk, or get inspired enough to return and make a drawing.

With this thought he picks his cigar packet and a match box and heads out. As he walks and walks he realizes he is in need of a restroom and so he searches for a place that would allow him to use their restroom. He enters into a hotel and at the entrance door, a girl and a boy bumped into him and rushes inside of hotel. He cannot see their face as they were in a hurry. Anyway, he forgets about it, goes inside, uses the restroom and starts walking out. As he is walking, he hears some noises of frustration from inside of a car. He bends down and sees the same boy and a girl sitting inside of car discussing why they had to wait for two hours and why cant the promoter let them meet the person for whom they came all the way. Anyway, he glances at the girl and is utterly amazed. He yells; “Holy Cow!!!! This girl fits the description to the T, is she the same girl?? I must request prince to come at once.” But then the old man doesn’t have a cell phone. He approaches the boy in the car and asks him for a favor. He asks him to lend his cell phone. The boy, searches his pocket but he doesn’t have one as he forgotten it at home. He yells "this is freaky, to meet Mauli, I forgot my cell in a hurry - how will I save her number now??". The girl without any hesitation gives the old man her cell phone but tells him she has only 5 dollar card that needs to last till end of the month so asks him to make only a quick call. The old man smiles, takes a bow and moves two steps back to dial the prince’s telephone number. Prince picks the phone “Yellow”. Old man says; “Not yellow – she is pink”. Prince answers back “what are you talking about and who are you?” The old man says, “Sir I am your loyal servant and you have appointed me to draw the painting of your new princess”. Prince says “Aha yes I do remember, tell me are you done with your painting?” “No sir – I found her” says the old man. “What???????????? You found her?? Where? How does she look like?? Says the prince. Looking inside of car, he says, “Well, she is ……….. Pretty, lovely, gorgeous, great smile, winsome, attractive, appealing, pleasant, pleasing, endearing, charming, angelic, sexy, divine, stunning, statuesque, finely chiseled, fine-featured, striking, captivating, fascinating, enchanting, shapely, and buxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx” … the old man is now interrupted by the boy from the car as he says “are you done with your phone call – dude we don’t have much money left don’t waste our minutes”. To this the old man replies, worry not young man, I am almost done.

And then he returns to his phone conversation tell the prince to rush to the hotel at once.

The prince is excited and so are King and Queen. All together hop in their royal chariot towards the hotel. As the old man waits guarding the car, he hears the car start and some conversation from inside that speaks how could we wait for freaking two hours at the wrong hotel?? Lets hurry to the right hotel before its too late. The old man says “Nooooooooooo you cant leave.. no please no”. His voice is lost in the loud engine noise and the old man is left helpless at the corner of the hotel.
