Don Wala Love
He watched her from afar as she laughed and smiled with Aryan in her arms. Seeing her smile caused an automatic smile to cross his face. He got out of his car and began to walk towards them. When he reached them, Madhu looked up at him with her beautiful brown eyes. Aryan followed her movements and looked up to see who it was.
"Sultan!"
"No Aryan. I told you to call me papa."
"Sorry papa."
Madhu smiled as Sultan listened to her advice from earlier.
"Madhu, did he cause any trouble this time?"
"Nope! Aryan's my good boy."
She laughed and squeezed Aryan's cheek. It had been days since she had agreed to take care of Aryan while Sultan was busy with work. Aryan had refused to have any other babysitter besides Madhu. So when Madhu had work, she'd take him to set with her where Sultan would later come pick him up. It had also been days since Sultan had realized he had fallen for Madhu. Her smile, her eyes, her hair, her personality...everything. He was waiting for the perfect moment to tell her. It didn't bother him that she was the ex-wife of his rival. All he cared about was his love for her.
RK had been witness to Madhu and Sultan's closeness. He continued to try to come between them but felt unsuccessful at all times. Little did he know that Madhu still only loved him and not Sultan. RK was leaving the set and his eyes managed to land on Madhu, Aryan, and Sultan. In his eyes they seemed like a perfect little family...but he had dreamt of himself in Sultan's spot. He decided to walk by them to see what was being said.
"Madhu, do you want to come with Aryan and I for dinner?"
RK stopped in his steps right beside the three of them. Madhu glanced towards RK and then answered Sultan.
"I'd love to."
RK felt his blood beginning to boil and then placed his hand on Sultan's shoulder. RK looked towards Sultan and Sultan returned the look with a glare from his piercing green eyes.
"I'd like to have a word with you."
Sultan looked back towards Madhu and Aryan.
"You two go to the car, I'll be there in a minute."
"But..."
"Madhu go."
Just as Madhu was walking by with Aryan, she felt someone gripping at her arm. She turned to see RK eyeing her.
"You go back onto set. We're not done shooting."
"We finished shooting."
"I said get on set."
Madhu forcefully removed her arm from his grip and was about to walk past him when she felt someone gripping at her arm again. This time it was Sultan.
"Madhu. Go to the car."
She nodded her head and turned back around but then suddenly she was flung behind RK's back. RK stepped forwards to face Sultan as Madhu stood behind him watching with wide eyes.
"Stay away from Madhu."
"Who are you to tell me what to do?"
"Her husband."
"EX- husband. She decides what she does, you don't decide for her."
RK fell silent as he was reminded of Madhu's words. You're nothing more than RK the superstar to me...
RK turned to look at Madhu who avoided his eyes. She looked straight towards Sultan and walked towards him. Leaving RK hreatbroken, they turned and walked towards the car while Sultan placed his hand on her back to lead her. A pained expression crossed his face. He knew he was losing her, and that too to his rival...he felt there was nothing he could do anymore. He rememebered back to Sultan's words. I'm going to make your life a living hell.
Sultan was on the right track.

"What's her name?"
"Boss, her name's Madhubala Malik. Superstar RK's ex-wife."
"Superstar RK? He must have money."
"Yes boss."
"I need you to do something."
"Yes boss?"

Two Days Later.

Madhu stood outside the studio, attempting to catch a cab when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Just as she was about to turn, she felt a cloth on her face and restraints on her arms. She struggled to get free and attempted to yell for help but it all went into vain. Minutes later she felt her eyes beginning to close against her will.

Two Days Later.

RK stood outside the studio, waiting for Madhu since he hadn't seen her in a couple days.
"Chief! Auntyji said she called her to say she was okay."
"I bet she's with that man."
"What man?"
"THAT man."
RK unconsciously pointed towards Sultan who was storming towards them. As RK realized Sultan was really there, a worried expression crossed his face. Sultan rushed towards RK and grabbed him by the collar.
"HEY!"
"Tell me where she is. I know you did something. TELL ME WHERE SHE IS!"
"WHO?!"
"Madhu!"
A shocked expression crossed RK's face as he froze up.
"I thought she was with you..."
"Don't lie to me! I know you have her RK. TELL ME."
Sultan crossed RK's face with a punch as he didn't speak but RK remained frozen as fear caused every hair on his body to stand on end.
Just as Sultan was shaking RK to get him to speak up, Bittuji rushed over again.
"Chief! It's for you."
"Huh?"
RK came out of his trance and noticed Sultan's hand on his collar. He angrily pushed his hands away.
"You're going to take a call when Madhu's missing?! You bas***d."
RK ignored his comment and answered the phone.
"Hello?"
"If you want to see her alive, you're going to have to give me a small amount of money."
"WHO IS THIS? DON'T HURT HER!"
As Sultan realized who it was, he snatched the phone from RK's hands.
"Listen to me you asshole, if anyth..."
"Ah, Sultan. It's been a while."
"Bhujang?!"
"What a pleasant surprise. You still recognize my voice."
"Don't you dare lay a h..."
RK snatched his phone back from Sultan.
"Bhujang, Ghujang, whatever your name is. DON'T TOUCH HER. Dare you lay a fing..."
Sultan grabbed the phone back but RK fought him. As they fought for the phone, they hit the speaker button. Then suddenly they heard her voice. They were surprised to hear what came out of her mouth.
"RK!"
Sultan looked up at RK and let go of the phone as RK stared at the phone. She had taken his name over Sultan's. Sultan stood staring at RK as a fire grew within RK.
"Madhu! Madhu, I'm coming."
"Not so fast."
"BHUJANG. DON'T..."
"LISTEN TO ME YOU STUPID SUPERSTAR. Give me everything you have and you'll get your girl."
Without a second thought, RK answered.
"I'll give you anything...just please don't hurt her."
"Good. Now meet me here."
After Sultan and RK took down the address, the phone fell silent. Sultan and RK exchanged a look. Then very slowly RK put out his hand.
"For her."
Sultan looked down at the hand and smirked.
"Only for her."
He grabbed RK's hand and shook it as RK let a smirk cross his face as well.
And with that, they were off.
