Everything was going as per RK's commands. But he wasn't happy. He wasn't delighted with that fact that he had promised to part away with the profits earned from the movie. He didn't want to give single penny to Sonia. His mind was constantly engrossed about the his defeat with Sonia. He lost the interest in the pre- promotional events of the movie. His subordinates were busy making the event success while he was busy thinking.
The week passed. There was buzz everywhere already. Everyone wanted to know everything about them. The paparazzi's attention suddenly shifted towards them. They only wanted to capture them in their lens. Suddenly they became the IT couple of the industry. RK decided to have move launch interaction with the media. His only motive was to add more fuel to the fire. He was going to introduce his lead actors as the real life couple.
On the launch day, all media houses arrived. They didn't want to miss the chance of telecasting news of the couple's first public appearance. When the couple arrived, there was lot of buzz. Everyone wanted to ask them all sorts of questions. But they were silenced. Rajbir hated being in limelight for the first time. He wanted to avoid the interaction with the media for the first time. Ironically, Simran was ever ready to interact with media she always avoided.
After brief introduction about the movie, RK began the interaction. The first question was about the couple and not about the movie. This annoyed RK slightly though he knew this was bound to happen. "Are you guys dating?", a journalist asked. Rajbir stayed quiet. "Well! I don't know. Are we?", Simran said with a blush. "When are you guying getting engaged?", another asked. "Can everyone direct your question about movie?", RK interrupted.
The event was successful. The movie was getting enough publicity as envisioned by RK. He pretended to be happy the whole time. Rajbir seemed lost while Simran was extremely delighted. The seemingly odd couple was accepted by all.
RK was successful in selling the lie to everyone. Sonia was extremely elated with RK's gig. She had sent him token of appreciation gifts and wishes. He threw them all. It angered him. He was furious. He threw all his anger on his subordinates and juniors. He was always screaming at them for their smallest mistakes.
