Rani convinces the policemen to free Akaash, telling Madan that she will only do the movie if Akaash stars opposite her. It seems that all Akaash’s dreams are coming true at last. On the set of the film, Diamond in the Rough, Akaash is having some trouble staying in character as the crew attempts to film Shakalaka Baby. Priya talks to him privately, encouraging him to think more about the character and less about being on camera. He begins to make some headway. Sending him off to re-join the shoot, Priya considers the emotions that Akaash brings out in her. It’s the night of film’s premiere, and Akaash now lives in a gorgeous new apartment. Shanti arrives but Rani turns her away, saying that it’s vital that nobody knows of Akaash’s true origins. The high society guests arrive for the pre-show party and warn Akaash of the pitfalls of being famous. At the premiere, the movie turns out to be a huge success. Sweetie, Shanti and the other tenants from from the slum cheer Akaash on, but when Sweetie tries to approach Akaash, he pretends not to know her. Shanti and Sweetie are devestated, and Priya tries to comfort them while Akaash and Rani move on to another party. ORIGINAL CAST 1. Raza Jaffrey - Akaash 2. Preeya Kalidas - Priya 3.
