Antara
sits outside for a moment and replays some of the conversations she has had in
her mind. After thinking for awhile, she says out loud that she is Shaukat's
love forever. This triggers a Book Vision showing BV Shaukat putting vermilion
on BV Antara's head, then the whole frame shifts to a bright red hue.
This fades nicely into a shot of the couple sitting at a table in a nightclub
that also happens to be lit with only red lights. And just in case you thought
things were calming down, Shaukat has a few more tricks up his sleeve. He
comments that this is a nice place, but it would be more enjoyable if Yash were
there. He looks past Antara's shoulder and says that he sees Yash there, but he
is just messing with her. He goes on to say that he can clearly see him being
there, and describes several of Yash's features.
He
then asks Antara why it is that Yash bites his nails.
This provokes a shocked look from Antara, and she reflects on all the times she's seen Yash doing that. She seems to wonder how it is that Shaukat has Yash down so perfectly. Shaukat tells her that he hears she is quite the dancer, and says that he hates it when he learns things about her from other people. He asks her if she'd dance with him now, and leads her down to the floor. This brings us to our next musical number, "Sholon Si Sholon Si." This one is also a little on the provocative side, and really highlights Ms. Rai. The whole tone of the song is more of a Latin salsa kind of tune instead of the traditional Indian style.

As the song is fading out, we get a few quick zooms on Shaukat's hands. We can see he is firmly grasping Antara by her shoulder and arm. He leans in and tells her that she belongs only to him, and that it's time for Yash to leave. He says that he thought Yash would give her happiness, but instead he has hurt her. He tells her that this is the end of the story, and gives her a confident smile. He tells her he is taking her back home, and slips into another Book Vision.
This
time, we see BV Antara running up a flight of stairs and slamming a steel gate
behind her as BV Yash tries to catch her. Author Shaukat says sorry, and goodbye
to BV Yash, but this is essential to the story. He also adds that in his own
selfish way, he feels he needs for this to happen. He pauses for a while,
staring at the page in the typewriter. He then says that he loves Yash, and that
is why he can't kill him off. Instead, Yash will have to kill himself.
During this speech, we see a happy smiling BV Yash looking at us through bright blue Book Vision letters. As Shaukat gets to the part about Yash killing himself, the letters turn a brilliant red, and leave trails behind them as they fall. Soon the whole frame turns red, and BV Yash's smile fades. Shaukat tells BV Yash that there are no hard feelings, and that he will live on forever in his story.
Now remember, Shaukat thinks that whatever he writes in his story will happen in reality. So, he really expects the real Yash to commit suicide over this breakup. We'll see what happens here.
We
have several more crimson lettered Book Visions as Shaukat merrily types away at
the last few pages of his magnum opus. He pauses to apologize to BV Antara for
the loss of her friend, and for putting her in the unenviable position of
breaking the news to Yash.
We cut to a small outdoor cafe where Yash is arriving in his Jeep. He arrives to find Antara already waiting at a table for him, and begins talking rapidly. He makes several compliments about her clothes, and how nice she looks. He also apologizes for making her wait, then promptly drops to one knee and formally proposes to her for real.
