    Reading

    Context: Shilpa and Sangeeta talk about their weekends and their hobbies.

    संगीता: कैसी हो, शिल्पा ? सुना कि तुम और पीटर फ़िल्म देखने गये थे | How are you, Shilpa? I heard that you and peter went to watch a movie.
    शिल्पा मैं ठीक हूँ | धन्यवाद ! हाँ पिछले शनिवार को हम ने एक फ़िल्म देखी | तुम सप्ताहांत में क्या करती हो? I am well. Thank you! Yes, last Saturday, we watch a movie. What do you do on weekend?
    संगीता: मैं अपने ख़ाली समय में किताबें पढ़ती हूँ और चित्रकारी करती हूँ | तुम क्या करती हो ? In my available time, I read books and paint. What do you do?
    शिल्पा मैं फ़िल्में देखती हूँ और टेबल टेनिस खेलती हूँ | और हाँ, मैं योग अभ्यास भी करती हूँ | I watch movies, and play table tennis. And, yes, I do yoga too.
    संगीता: अरे वाह ! तुम तो अपने शरीर पर बहुत ध्यान देती हो | शिल्पा, मुझे फ़िल्म की कहानी बताओ | Wao! You pay attention to your body. Shilpa, tell me the story of a movie.
    शिल्पा कौन सी फ़िल्म की कहानी ? Story of which movie?
    संगीता: जो फ़िल्म तुम और पीटर देखने गये थे | The film that you and peter had gone to watch.
    शिल्पा अच्छा, यह एक दिलचस्प फ़िल्म थी | इस फ़िल्म में एक लड़का एक लड़की से प्यार करता है | मगर लड़की किसी और लड़के से प्यार करती है | बाद में उसे पता चलता है कि वह लड़का जिससे वह प्यार करती है वह अच्छा आदमी नहीं है | फिर वह लड़की उस लड़के के साथ शादी करती है जो उसे प्यार करता है | Okay, This was an interesting film. In this film, a boy loves a girl. But the girl loves some other boy. After a while, she learns that he is not a good man. Then she marries the boy who loves her.
    संगीता: अरे वाह ! यह तो Love triangle लगता है| Wao! This seems like a love triangle.
    शिल्पा संगीता, मैं भी चित्रकारी करना चाहती हूँ | क्या तुम मुझे चित्रकारी करना सिखा सकती हो ? Sangeeta, I do want to paint. Can you teach me painting?
    संगीता: हाँ बिल्कुल, अगले रविवार को मेरे घर आ जाओ, हम एक साथ चित्रकारी करेंगे | Yes, of course, come to my home on next Sunday, we will paint together.
    शिल्पा अच्छा | Great.
