Episode 49 - Oct 19, 2005

An ok episode.I'll just mention the highlights.
the hotel staff is divided on whether to side with Vish or Shelly.Sujit,Payal,Colonel and one more female side with Vish while Priyesh,Mrs Hawkins and her gossip partner think that Shelly was right. The show spent nearly half an hour on sentimental vish bidding goodbye to everyone.
Shelly immediately hires a new GM( a total duffer) and that guy falls in love with the first girl that he sees in kingston. The girl believes in astrology and the new Gm has to put on a fake identity so that he can woo her.
Akash Mehra and the other vultures prepare a full-proof plan to take over HK by forcing Shelly to make AM the co-applicant in HK's loan payment. Vish comes to know of their dastardly plan and gatecrashes their board meeting to warn Shelly. AM goes mad on seeing Vish and insults him left,right and center. Shelly cannot take it anymore and she goes and slaps AM. You see Vish smirking at AM,but the next moment his face turns to disbelief as Shelly signs the papers making AM the co-applicant!!

UPDATE by PRANX
Episode 50 - Oct 26, 2005

Shelly acted so dumb in this episode that i'm surprised that she could actually run Kingston for all this time!
    The episode starts with a conversation between Vish and Akash Mehra. Vish is still in a shock that Shelly signed the papers inspite of his repeated warnings.Akash tells Vish that he doesn't mind being slapped by Shelly as long as his work is done. He also mockingly sympathises with Vish's fate and taunts him by singing "Kya se kya ho gaya...bewafaa.." while leaving the conference room. Vish is talking to himself saying he knew something like this would happen. At that instant Colonel comes into the room and tells Vish that shelly wants him out of the hotel immediately. Meanwhile the HK staff goes into a tizzy over Vish's return. They think that Vish was recalled by Shelly, having realised that the hotel could not function for a single day without him. They all go to talk to him but Vish just brushes them off and leaves. Shelly is in her room with her dad and K.K. She is in self-doubt and wonders if she did the right thing especially when Vish was so vehemently telling her not to sign the papers. K.K. allays her fears saying that Vish doesn't know anything about this and he just wanted to come back to the hotel.
    Later we see Akash with the bank manager. Akash wants him to send a notice to HK asking the Sahais to repay the bank loan of 3 crores within a week. The bank manager had already prepared the notice before-hand which he hands over to Akash. Akash also warns the manager about a mole in his bank who was leaking information to Vish and warns him to find him fast.
    Cut to a restaurant where we see Vish talking to a person. He turns out to be the assistant manager of the bank who had warned Vish about Akash's plan. Vish thanks him for having fore-warned him although he could not do much about it. The asst mgr says that Shelly has virtually signed a death warrant for HK and now it will be nearly impossible for anyone to save it.
    Later we see Vish in devdas mode at his home, when the phone suddenly rings. He picks it up reluctantly and says 'hello' but no one answers. Its Shelly who was calling (If you miss him so much why throw him out in the first place?)Vish calls her back and does the same and we get a lover's missed calls session! Sujit then comes to Vish's place with a tiffin( remember jilted lovers have to go hungry till someone gets them food). They discuss the current situation in the hotel and Vish-Shelly. Vish tells him that its all over between them and its not going to change.
    Next day Sujit overhears Mr. Sahai and shelly discussing the bank notice and he immediately calls Vish, who says that this had to happen after Shelly signed the papers. Shelly asks her dad come all this has happened when they were just following their K.K. 'uncle's' instructions( grow up girl!! Vish would have seen through him in no time!) Mr.Sahai tries asking people to lend him money but no one agrees. He says that they should have listened to Vish but now he has no option other than go to Akash begging for money. He says that saving HK is more important than his self-esteem. He follows Akash who goes to Urvashi's office. There he overhears their entire plan- about K.K.'s betrayal, the truth about what had actually happened between Vish and Urvashi( the gheesa-peeta Aitraaz like situation where the girl forces herself on a guy and then accuses him of molestation)
    He comes back and tells Shelly everything. Her reaction is priceless. She is actually smiling( although they show tears in her eyes) and looks happy. (C'mon you have treated the love of your life like absolute trash for no fault of his and now you are happy because you realised that after all, he was not unfaithful to you? Somebody else would be sobbing her eyes out for putting her lover through hell for nothing.)
Her dad tells her that he always knew that Vish couldn't do such sleazy things( yeah rite...then why didn't he try to knock some sense into his daughter?) He asks her to call him immediately and not to lose him again.
    Then, we see Vish at his home packing all his stuff. Sujit comes there and asks him where he is going. Vish replis that he has got a new job at Dubai and he plans to join the new hotel next week. He also says that there is nothing left for him here. Sujit then asks him, what about Shelly and HK and the loan coz the loan hasn't been repaid as yet. Vish adds up two and two and makes it five! He says," So that's why Shelly was calling me since morning. Because i'm her last hope of saving the hotel. And here I am, thinking that maybe she realised her mistake and wanted to say sorry"( Well,you wont come to know unless you answer her calls,will you?) He then says that he is not concerned anymore with what happens in HK.
    Back in the hotel Shelly is sitting in her cabin with the lost lover look. Her dad asks her if she talked to Vish to which she replies that he is not picking up his phone. She says that he must be angry with her and he has every right to be so.Her dad then tells her that he's convinced that Vish still loves her and asks her to go and meet him personally( Why do you need your dad to tell you that?That would be the most sensible thing to do if you are desperate enough to meet him. But as I said, she's acting dumb) Shelly then goes to vish's place only to find it locked. She comes back to the hotel really disturbed and asks the staff if they might have any idea about Vish's whereabouts. Sujit asks her to calm down and says that he will try to do something.Shelly goes crying to her dad and says that she's lost Vish forever. Meanwhile Sujit calls up Vish and asks him to meet Shelly atleast once coz she's really disturbed and HK is in deep trouble. Vish, taking out his anger on Sujit; says that he is not intersted in solving Shelly's self-created problems and that she should face them alone. He also tells him not to call him up again regarding this matter.
    As a closing shot ,we see Shelly reading the bank notice that since the loan was not repaid in the stipulated peroid, the Hotel would be auctioned off on 2nd Nov.

Pilot Episode of HK

 

Please bear with my update. Not too good at it. But for my dear Vish I'll do anything.😳

 

The episode starts off with an introduction to the assistant GM of Hotel Kingston (Vish) who is portrayed as the cool dude of the joint! He is very popular with the ladies at hotel Kingston, including the lady guests.

 

The GM of the hotel instructs Vish to pick up Govind Sahai's daughter from the airport and hands him a placard bearing the name 'SHALLY'😆. Unwillingly Vish sets off to the airport, in search of Govind Sahai's daughter. The GM has to constantly egg him on to hurry up since Vish is constantly interrupted by calls from some girl or the other.

 

Priyesh and Payal are also introduced as the staff at the reception and when Vish doesn't say 'hi' to Payal, she is a little upset.

 

Hotel Kingston is also celebrating 40 years and to commemorate this event, Govind Sahai is throwing a grand party to which the "who's who" of the town are invited. This includes a very rich lady …a Maharani of some place.

Govind asks he GM if he has invited that lady(who is later on engaged to Govind Sahai). The GM is not all that great at his job and keeps palming off his duties to Vish.

 

At the airport, Nick who is accompanying Shelly to India is constantly complaining about every little thing. Vish arrives late but manages to bump into Shelly. A heated argument follows between the lead pair and Vish doesn't realize that she is Shelly.😭

In the meantime Nick & Shelly arrive after a crazy taxi ride to hotel Kingston and complain to Govind Sahai about the incompetent services at the airport and the less than qualified staff at the hotel. Govind Sahai is not to keen about a Nick. Vish reaches the hotel and upon seeing Shelly…with Govind Sahhai, immediately becomes very courteous.

 

Plans are on for the party and Akash Goenka receives the invitation. He tells one of his cronies that the hotel will soon be his.🤢

 

At the hotel restaurant Nick insults Vish by saying that he knows nothing about wines but Vish give a befitting reply and Govind Sahai sides with Vish. Shelly is upset about this.

 

During the party, Nick starts to drink heavily after Shelly gets irritated by his constant complaining. Someone enters maharani's room and shoots at her beloved dog, injures it and takes off with all the priceless jewellery. Panic strikes the party when Shelly spots blood which is the dog's. Vish & Govind Sahai are trying to calm everyone while Shelly is standing clueless and nick is completely inebriated. The press are in a frenzy.

 

 

Vish is waiting for the vet and carries the injured dog with him (that part was so cute).😳 When Shelly tries to interfere, he tells her to keep away, for her own good and says that she would get infections by touching the dog…delicate darling that Shelly is.

Once everything has calmed down, Akas approaches Vish and tells him that the hotel will soon be his. Vish is annoyed by Goenka but Goenka is apparently quite pleased with Vish's capabilities and offers him a permanent place at the hotel even after Govind Sahai is no more the owner. Vish is put off by Akash Goenka.

Later a drunk Nick is puking all over in the garden and Vish manages to catch him at the nick of time & save Nick from falling into the pool. Nick starts arguing with Vish and Shelly, seeing this from afar, thinks that Vish is manhandling Nick.

 

She shouts at Nick, saying…'what the hell do you think you are doing…blah blah blah'. Vish is totally irritated by her and lets go of nick hand and Nick crashes into the pool. Vish walks off disgusted.

 

 

End of the episode!

EPISODE 3

UPDATE by PRANX

(Please excuse me if I've missed some things in between. This episode was telecast during my exams so I don't remember much of it)

Shelly walks to the lobby very irritated and asks one of the staff members why there is no car to take her to the hospital. Apparently, all the cars were either assigned to the guests or had gone for servicing. Shelly gets even more irritated.

Meanwhile, we see Vish enjoying coffee with a female friend (I forgot her name…lets just call her K). He sees the commotion created by Shelly and offers to drop her to the hospital.

She looks at Vish and then at K and then says that I'll be disturbing you (First arrow of cupid strikes! It's as if she can't believe that Vish can have a girlfriend. And it makes her go green with envy! Open your eyes girl! Every girl worth her lipstick and mascara is gunning for Vish and here you are- unable to see beyond your French poodle!) Vish says that it won't be a problem since he has to drop K too and the hospital is on the way. (He really knows how to prick her bubble of ego, doesn't he?)

Later we see Vish in his car, Shelly in the next seat and K in the rear seat. He introduces K to Shelly. Shelly is very cold in her reply (Hah! You are becoming greener Shelly!) Vish then says that K had done the bookings for Shelly and Nick's Goa trip. Shelly tries to be warm in her thanks but fails miserably. Finally k's place arrives and she gets down. She shakes Vish's hand and bids him an extra friendly good-bye. (By now even Vish could've smelled that something was burning! Shelly was that jealous!) Later on the way to the hospital, Shelly tries to find out more about K. She tells Vish that your friend is very good (I don't think Vish ever asked for her approval) and asks if they are 'very' good friends. We know each other for a very long time is his enigmatic reply. Just then they arrive at the hospital. Shelly thanks Vish and gets off. Just as she's about to enter the hospital, she sees Devyani coming out. From his car Vish sees the cold air blowing between the 2 ladies in Govind Sahai's life. He just drives off.

The episode then wastes 15 mins on Shelly and her dad and than Shelly and Nick. I won't go into the details since it revolves around a photo album of Shelly when she was a kid. Shelly tells Nick that she can't leave dad in his current condition and go back to US. She is going to represent her dad at the board meeting and she needs to prepare a presentation. Nick asks her if she has any idea what she's getting herself into. Nick is already cranky because shelly refuses to stay with him in one room and on top of it her dad does not like him.

Next day, Shelly and Nick are in the restaurant impatiently waiting for their food. Shelly sees that K has already got her food and her anger boils over. She starts screaming at the staff-in-charge saying that they have been waiting for an hr. for their food while others get preferential treatment. The reality was that both of them had ordered exotic dishes which required time to prepare while K had ordered the regular dishes,but Shelly was in no mood to listen. Vish defends the staff-in-charge. K gets angry and storms off. Just then the waiter appears with their food, but Nick who's gesturing wildly accidently strikes the tray and the food, in slow motion falls all over Shelly. It's a hilarious scene! Shelly icily tells Vish that he'll have to pay for this. Everyone gets worried but Vish remains unperturbed.

Later we see the HK staff gathered in Govind Sahai's hospital room. It's his birthday and they have got a birthday cake for him. They all sing happy birthday to you. Just then, Shelly comes by with a bouquet in her hand, looks at the celebration going on, and then in her 'I'm-more-important-than-you' way just hijacks the party. Nobody likes it but they can't say anything. Govind tells Vish to cut the cake and distribute among the HK employees. In the kitchen, Vish tells Sujit to cut a bigger piece for him. Priyesh comes to the kitchen saying that there is commotion in the lobby and shelly's looking for him.

<!--[if !vml]--> A wedding party who had booked the hotel for their daughter's wedding. They are the loud Punjabi type (sorry mani) and Shelly's having a tough time managing them. Our dear, smart Vish expertly handles the situation and even introduces the bride's parents to Shelly. The bride's mom immediately tells vish that she does not want Shelly to be around at the time of her daughter's marriage. She says her daughter will be overshadowed by Shelly's beauty, but Vish says that Shelly is nothing in front of her daughter and that she's getting unduly worried (Amazing Vish!)




Meanwhile Nick is getting drunk at the bar. Shelly has to drag him away from there. In his drunkenness, Nick tells everyone that the drink's on the house. She drags him outside towards the pool where Vish and the bride's mom are overseeing the decorations. Vish comments about Nick's condition and Shelly hears it. They have a staring match.

The next day we see Nick sleeping in his room when he is woken up by the sound of a band playing really loud music. Both he and Shelly come down to the lobby where they see the lobby being decorated with flowers and a really loud band playing music. Shelly asks Vish who was overseeing the decorations, what was going on. He tells her that it's for the wedding and she can't do anything about it. Nick gets all the more infuriated and prepares to leave the hotel. Shelly follows him to his room saying that he can't let Vish unsettle him. Just then Vish arrives with the bill for the bar where Nick had announced free drinks to all. Shelly signs the bill. Vish is about to leave when he sees the hotel food dumped into a plate by Nick and he comments that we may not be cultured like you but at least we know to respect our food and leaves. Nick gets mad and slams the door.

EPISODE 5

UPDATE by PRANX

The episode starts with Shelly revising her presentation in front of her dad in the hospital. (I didn't see the previous week's episode so I don't know what happened earlier) Mr.Sahai keeps on pointing faults in her presentation in order to make it foolproof. He asks her bout the current occupancy and finds out that it is a dismal 45%. He immediately calls vish and tells him that the occupancy should be more than 60% at any cost. Shelly gets mad that her dad turned to Vish and leaves in a huff. Here Vish tells his friend that he has to bring a drama troupe to HK in order to increase its occupancy.

Later the HK staff is discussing how long the ceasefire between Shelly and Vish last. Bindra teases Vish with Payal (were they actually a couple in the initial parts??). Right at that moment Shelly comes there and finds a mop lying on the floor. As usual, she explodes but Vish answers her right back. It's a nice scene and at the end of it Priyesh says, Round 1 goes to Vish.

The drama troupe consists of all duplicates of AB, Saurav, Sachin,
etc. They create a lot of ruckus in the hotel and a huge crowd gathers outside the hotel to watch them. Shelly blames Vish for all this since he was the one who had organised everything. She complains to her dad who sees it as publicity for the hotel. Meanwhile Akash Goenka is busy with his plans for the board meeting. On the day of the meeting, Vish receives a call which disturbs him and he immediately leaves to meet Shelly at the hospital. There Vish reveals that Akash had come to know
that Mr. Sahai had reinstated Vish on his job after his term as MD had ended. Though everyone knew that Vish wasn't going to join any other hotel, it was technically a misuse of power. Mr. Sahai gets worried that Akash might trap Shelly in this matter. But KK( I don't know his position in the hotel) makes some changes to the papers and puts them in order. Shelly doesn't understand what wat fuss is all about, but her dad silences her that Vish had actually saved her skin and she should thank him for that. But Vish says that it's ok and leaves. I just loved av in this scene.

Later in the meeting, there is a war of words between Shelly and akash but shelly wins the fight. Outside, vish is very tensed and pacing up and down the lobby. Just then, Shelly comes out of the lift crying. Vish is shocked and calls out to her but she just goes away. The episode ends here

Episode 6 

UPDATE by PRANX


(I saw only half the episode so I don't know what happened in the first 20 min. I think Shelly was elected as the MD)

Vish and Payal are having some discussion about Shelly. Vish tells her that Shelly has changed now. She even thanked him today. Payal remains skeptical. We can see that Shelly has thawed towards Vish. Meaning that they can have a meaningful discussion without either of them going up in flames.

Nick gets a 'brilliant' idea to get the HK accounts checked by a corporate detective. He drags Shelly to meet the one that he's finalized. The detective is an eccentric guy, somewhat like a brilliant but an absent-minded maths prof. Shelly is unimpressed and tells Nick that she'll hire him only if Nick personally checks all the accounts with him.

They then go to meet Mr. Sahai at the hospital. He's surprised to see Shelly since it's the peak time of the hotel. Shelly tells him that Nick wanted to talk to him. Nick launches into an explanation about the corporate detective but Mr. Sahai just cuts him off to ask Shelly the need to have the accounts checked again. When Nick tries to interrupt, he coldly tells him that he's talking to Shelly and not him. Nick gets the message and he leaves. Shelly gets angry at her dad for treating Nick so rudely, but her dad justifies it by saying that Nick will destroy the hotel with his impractical ideas. He also warns her that in future, she will not take any decision without first consulting him. She leaves in a huff.

Later both of them go to the pool-side restaurant of HK. Sujit gets a 'bangda' (mackerel) fry for Nick. It's a funny scene where Sujit tries explaining the recipie of the dish to an irritated Nick. The duplicate gang meanwhile is busy enjoying themselves on the other side of the pool. Shelly sees Vish along with them and tells him that these unsophisticated people will lower the standard of the hotel, but Vish tells her not to worry since he won't let the situation go out of hand. Surprisingly, Shelly just says OK and leaves.

The detective is meanwhile checking all the logs. The GM had manipulated the logs, but he deftly shifts the blame on to Vish by saying that Vish had handled those accounts. The detective tries asking for Vish's explanation, but every time Vish is called, there is some other emergency in the hotel which requires Vish's attention. This helps strengthen the detective's suspicion that Vish is avoiding answering the questions because he's guilty of manipulation. Nick, who's just looking for an opportunity to pull Vish down , agrees with the detective.

The duplicate gang continues to create a ruckus in their room and Vish has a hard time controlling them. Two of them get into an argument with Nick at the poolside. Nick abuses them badly and they in return. Push him into the pool. Finally Vish and the Colonel have to physically pull them apart to put an end to the argument.

For the first time Shelly holds Nick responsible for the fight. She shouts at him saying that he just thinks about himself and not the hotel's reputation. She starts worrying about what will happen if the troupe refuses to perform. Nick says that nobody is going to watch their stupid show and she should just tell Vish to announce that the show's cancelled. Meanwhile Vish too is worried about the same thing and goes to their room to give them a pep talk. When he comes out from their room he sees Shelly and is surprised to see her there. She tells him that she came for the same reason that he did. She tells him so many things are happening so fast. She had fired him but his fear for Mr. Sahai brought him back. Vish corrects her by saying that it was not the fear but the love and respect for Mr. Sahai that brought him back and goes away.

The show is horrible but the audience enjoys it. Shelly is happy that the show was a success. She goes to Vish and thanks him and also shakes his hand. Vish is shocked by her behavior and wonders what came over her. Just then the detective calls her to one side and tells her his suspicions regarding Vish. You can see from her face that the truce between her and Vish has come to an end. She gives him an openly hostile look and storms off. Vish is just confused with the whole scene.
