                    As Ishan and Mayank entered the meet and greet venue, their jaws dropped faster than a cricket ball hitting the stumps."Yo, Ishan, close your mouth before a fly gets in!" Mayank joked, nudging his friend with a grin.Ishan snapped out of his daze with a laugh, giving Mayank a playful shove in return. "Sorry, man, I just can't believe we're actually here!" he exclaimed, his eyes wide with excitement.Mayank chuckled, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Yeah, well, try to keep it together, bro. We don't wanna make a scene before we've even met the players!"



But as they made their way through the crowd, Ishan couldn't help but feel like a kid in a candy store. Everywhere he looked, there were cricketing legends and die-hard fans, all buzzing with excitement and anticipation.And then, just when Ishan thought things couldn't get any crazier, he spotted him—Shubman Gill, looking suave and confident as ever."Dude, is that Shubman Gill?" Ishan exclaimed, his voice rising an octave with excitement.Mayank followed Ishan's gaze and let out a low whistle. "Damn, looks like it," he replied, his eyes wide with awe. "Better watch out, Ishu, you might just faint if you get any closer!"



Ishan rolled his eyes, playfully swatting Mayank on the arm. "Ha ha, very funny, Mayu," he said, unable to hide the grin spreading across his face. "But hey, who knows? Maybe today's the day I finally get to meet my cricketing hero!"With that, Ishan took a deep breath and braced himself for the adventure ahead, knowing that no matter what happened, he was in for one hell of a ride.Ishan's excitement reached new heights as he gazed at his celebrity crush, the one and only Shubman Gill.



"You know, Mayank, he has no business being so fine as hell," Ishan remarked, his voice filled with awe.Mayank raised an eyebrow, trying to contain his laughter. "Ishan, you're drooling," he pointed out with a smirk.Ishan just rolled his eyes, refusing to be embarrassed. "Come on, Mayu, can you blame me? Look at him!" he exclaimed, gesturing towards Shubman with wide-eyed admiration.Mayank chuckled, shaking his head in amusement. "I'll admit, he's not bad to look at," he conceded.


But Ishan wasn't about to let Mayank rain on his parade. With a grin plastered on his face, he elbowed his friend playfully. "Not bad? He's a certified snack, bro!" he declared, unable to contain his excitement.Mayank laughed, realizing there was no stopping Ishan when he was on a roll. "Alright, alright, simmer down, Ishu," he said, shaking his head fondly. "Let's go say hi before you embarrass yourself any further."


With that, Ishan took a deep breath and steeled himself for the encounter of a lifetime. Today was the day he would finally come face to face with his cricketing hero, and nothing—not even Mayank's teasing—could dampen his spirits. It was go time, baby! the meet and greet wound down, Ishan's heart raced with excitement as he continued to swap stories with Mayank.


"Bro, you should've seen it! Shubman was killing it, and I swear, my heart skipped a beat when he gave me that smile," Ishan gushed, his eyes sparkling with excitement.But before Mayank could respond, he darted off with a sudden urgency."Yo, Ishan, nature's calling! Be right back!" Mayank shouted over his shoulder, disappearing into the crowd.


"Sure, thing but hurry up! I've got some serious gossip to spill," Ishan called after him, barely able to contain his excitement.As Ishan turned to resume his storytelling, he collided with someone, nearly sending them both tumbling to the ground."Whoa—ouch, sorry about that!" Ishan exclaimed, his cheeks flushing with embarrassment.The stranger flashed him a dazzling smile, his eyes sparkling with mischief."No worries, darling. I must say, you're quite the handful," the stranger quipped, his tone playful as he helped Ishan regain his balance.Ishan blinked in surprise, caught off guard by the stranger's flirtatious remark.


"Um, thanks, I guess," Ishan replied, his mind racing as he tried to process what was happening.The stranger leaned in closer, their faces mere inches apart.


"I must say, you're even more charming up close," the stranger said, their voice low and husky.Ishan's heart skipped a beat as he met the stranger's gaze, his pulse racing with excitement.He was so stunned that he could hardly think straight, let alone form a coherent response. 

All he could do was stand there, frozen in place, as the stranger pulled down their mask.

"I'm Shubman Gill," he said with a wink, extending a hand in greeting.Ishan's jaw dropped in disbelief as he shook Shubman's hand, his mind reeling with the realization that his cricketing idol was standing right in front of him.Ishan's heart was still racing from the encounter as Mayank returned, and he couldn't wait to spill the beans.


"Bro, I leave you for two minutes alone and you manage to bump into someone!" Mayank exclaimed, shaking his head in mock disbelief.But Ishan was too preoccupied to respond, lost in his own thoughts until Mayank's voice snapped him out of his daze.


"Ishan, Ishan, are you okay?" Mayank's voice grew louder, tinged with concern."Why are you shouting in my ears? You'll make me deaf!" Ishan protested, rubbing his ears in mock irritation."You weren't replying, man! I swear, I should tie your clumsy ass—" Mayank started, before Ishan cut him off with a sudden burst of excitement.


"Guess what happened, Mayu? I bumped into the freaking, breaking, Shubman freaking Gill!" Ishan squealed, practically vibrating with excitement as he wrapped Mayank in a tight hug.Mayank's eyes widened in disbelief as he processed Ishan's words."You bumped into Shubman Gill? Are you serious?" Mayank exclaimed, his voice rising with excitement.


Ishan nodded enthusiastically, his grin stretching from ear to ear."I'm serious, bro! It was like something out of a movie, I swear!" Ishan exclaimed, his words tumbling over each other in his excitement.Mayank shook his head in disbelief, unable to contain his excitement at the news."This is insane, Ishu! We have to tell everyone about this!" Mayank declared, grabbing Ishan by the shoulders and shaking him in his excitement.


Ishan laughed, feeling a rush of adrenaline coursing through his veins."Yeah, we definitely do!" he agreed, his heart still racing with the thrill of the encounter.And as the two friends stood there, buzzing with excitement, Ishan couldn't help but feel like he was on top of the world. After all, how many people could say they'd bumped into their idol at a meet and greet?
