The Missing Slipper

It all began with an article about teen actors minting millions, which reminded Arun of his long-cherished dream of acting in movies, along with his losing 4 pairs of slippers:

Arun: i always wanted to act
even now
 
 i mean movies
 me: dont worry we'll make one 
 Arun: yeah
 me: cast u in it
 Arun: :yahoome: CTIDES productions present
 Arun: The one and only Arun
 me: in The Missing Slippers
 
 Arun: sounds gr8
 me: introducing Arun Srivatsan
  and we will need an anorexic female opposite u
 Arun: i need one pseud heroine and a rough villian
  i need dream sequence in Swiss and action sequence in hongkong
i need emma watson for female lead
  i love her
 
 me: too many ppl do..
  see with swiss n hk budget wud shoot
  didnt Mash teach us to use finances wisely
  Arbit can be the heroine  better to take people from the team, only one girl and 'that' girl doesnt do pretty female roles
n Tarun can play the rough villian
 Arun: pack
  not Arbit
  nice trrry
  surely flop
  remember Mash told
  about selecting a nice team
  Arbit heroine
 me: he can convicne Isha Sharavani to be thr
 Arun: iam not acting
  ohk
 me: she looks anorexic enuf to suit ur looks
 Arun: dats nice
  my looks demand only emma,
  i will try and adjust with some isha
 me: she wil look fatter than u dude
 Arun: well, in dat case, ok
but atleas as a gueat appearence
  emma shud be thr
  can u see the relation
  emma watson, Arun sriWatson
  me: this will sooo go on my blog
rough hero ke liyeTarun is ok?
 Arun: well, fine..........his bodyguard will be Kartik
  Tarun seems fine..................
  put a black glass on his eyes and some black leather jacket
  give him a pistol
  he wud look
  but ask him to clean shave
 me: and Robo as the mad scientist who tries inventing the algorithm for finding missing slippers
 
 Arun: oh nice..................and whr r u?
 me: im the director
 Arun: u have to act
  nothing doin
  u must act
 me: all roles taken
 
 Arun: u can be police officer
 
  who comes in the end of movie
  u will get a double role
 me: no the CIA director who is entrusted with the responsibility of ensuring the formula doesnt fall into tarun's hands
 Arun: other one being a comedian
 me: (ironical that i wud work to keep knowledge from tarun)
  na females in comedies.. doesnt work with the audience
  remember the rule KYC: know your customer
 Arun: fair enough............i dint think of itme: so who is the producer
  lsg or mash?
Arun: errr, producer is CTIDES rite?
 
 me: ctides wud be the banner
  one person wil have to take charge as the producer
 Arun: well, then it shud be Mash
 me: tarun cant- since he is the rough villian (looking like he does is arbit's facebook album)
 Arun: his name is funky
me: ok..funky is good
  plus lsg might not release the movie till a decade
 Arun: dats thr
 
  So mash be the producer
 me: plus mash's wife can help us with the contracts in exchange for equity
 official legal advisor
 Arun: who will be my mother?  
  i need a mother in the movie
  imp role
need some other young girl
  with lot of makeup
  to look old
  pls pls
 me: ed doesnt have girls sadly
  pick one from our class
 Arun: yeha
  or may be MA

me: they'll look like ur daughters re
 Arun: put make up na
 me: the mother wont fit with the script re
 Arun: see it will
  thr will be flash back
  where we will show
  my mother buying that slipper
  and telling me, keep it properly forever
 
 me: ohhh..senti angle
 Arun: yeah
 me: we will need ekta kapoor on our board of directors
Arun: or the baalika vadhu team
me: we should give chance to our insti talent..
  isha sharvani will drain the budget
  we wil have to compromise on the Maa
 Arun: well pack her
