Shreekant Sambrani tells himself over and over again, don't lose heart in these dire times, there is asha (hope) still, in the divine voice of Asha Bhosle.

'I want to play the heroine.' 'Why not?' 'I can dance, I can act and hopefully through Begum Jaan, people will notice me and say, 'Chalo isko yeh bhi karathay hai.'
'A Lufthansa crew member reached a hotel in the middle of night and slept.' 'The next morning, something fell and she bent to pick it up.' 'She saw a dead body under the bed!'
