People are an interruption for Akash. If you ever met him at a coffee shop, or were seated next to him on a plane or on the metro ride home. You would be tempted to turn to him, maybe only to ask him the time. There is something about him that draws you to him, and yet all too quickly just when you think you have his attention, you lose him. It's the way he likes it and he would turn to you maybe even smile and say - "I have no interest in you. Absolutely none - zilch". And that would be the end. It isn't personal - with Akash - it never is personal. It is what it is. So then who is he? This man who chooses to remain aloof, alone - always a stranger, maybe even to himself?
Priyanka Chopra: Kiara
How do you solve a problem like Kiara?? That is the problem Akash inadvertently stumbles into. She is all that one can expect, after all she is overt in her behavior, happy go lucky...living a rather unorthodox life, living in the moment - for the moment. However there are depths that are unfathomed; that she keeps blanketed under her perceived zest for living and the good life. There is so much she reveals and yet there is still more that she keeps to herself. In her carefully cultivated persona of frivolity and fun, there is a deeper, abiding sadness. One that she doesn't permit you to see, one that Akash must discover for himself and one that he will yet again stumble into - much to his surprise.
