55.
He takes a deep breath and starts to walk.
HER VOICE
Janaaaaa...
-- it’s sweeter this time. More sensual.
Jana is on the verge of tears.
RUDRA (V.O.)
Keep walking. Don’t run, just walk.
Jana starts to recits the Hanuman Chalisa, as he picks up
pace and walks. Gets stuck after the first stanza. Starts
repeating the same lines.
HER VOICE
Janaaaaaaaaaaa..
-- this time it’s practically in his ears. Like she is right
next to him.
Fuck!
He slowly starts to turn back --
RUDRA (V.O.)
Aaj tak aisa mard paida nahi hua,
who can resist her voice. Everybody
turns back.
-- he turns to face her.
In the middle of the crossroads, Jana stands facing Her.
This is the first time we see her.
A quiet, shy bride draped in a sari, head bent, ghunghat
down, covering her eyes. She is demure and scary at the same
time.
Gingerly, he slowly tries to bend to see her face, her eyes.
And she too reciprocates by slowly lifting her bent head.
Intercut between the two, as they try to look at each other.
Her POV and his POV.
Anticipation. Tension.
And finally we see her face! In the shadowy darkness. The
outline of a pretty girl’s face.
Jana’s expression softens.
Boom!
Suddenly the face turns ghostly! And lets out a piercing
sound as she pounces on Jana.
Jana is dragged along the ground by his legs -- very fast,
like a bullet. He screams in pain.
