On the big screen, Agnas's death scene was going on. Him trying to write up a song before taking drugs and accidentally overdosing. The scene was shot in just one take and although Aiden had not taken real drugs, he had researched a lot of videos, movies and habits of people who do drugs.
So, the scene looked almost perfect.
There were even a few gasps in the theatre when the scene began. The body of Agnas twitching while he's unconscious on the floor. For a second, people even felt like there was a smile on his face as he was happy that his tragedy was finally going to end.
The scene cuts to a montage of scenes of reactions after Agnas's death. Reporters, media and literally every celebrity in America and the world grieved for him.
Then, the scene cuts with Agnas reciting a quote that he was famous for.
"One day, I might not be alive but I know my songs will live on. My ideas through them will live on and might influence someone to be like me. After all, we humans are just beings who are always influenced by someone."
Aiden recited the lines as it happened on the screen. Everyone's eyes were glued on the big screen as suddenly, the scene changed to a concert.
Agnas was holding a mic. It was the same stage where he had first started confident. The stage where his agent had perceived that he was going to be a star.
Standing there, he slowly started strumming his guitar.
A familiar tune hit Aiden's ears.
The tune of 'Joker'.
Slowly, the tempo increased and he could see that people around him looked in some sort of trance state. Just the tune of the song had enamored them.
Aiden just closed his eyes and listened to the song.
The piano, the guitar and slow humming followed by high notes that talks about a man's purpose in life and how in the end, it's just about being a joker in a circus that you don't own.
But still, Agnas took pride in the fact that his music was at least making people smile. He was a 'Joker' but that was just life.
It was well described by the lyrics in the chorus. Especially the main line of the song.
"I am a Joker in the circus called life."
When the chorus appeared, Aiden saw a few people tear up in the crowd. They have been sitting here watching the whole journey of Agnas and hearing these lines, they truly resonated with him.
Even Wade seemed to be listening to the lyrics with full attention.
When the song ended, a clap sounded out in the theatre, followed by more of them. It didn't stop there as people stood up and clapped hard for the movie they had just watched.
It had truly touched their hearts.
When Aiden opened his heart, a smile unknowingly hung on his lips and suddenly, a few notifications appeared in front of him.
[You have gained a lot of experience.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have advanced to Intermediate Grade 7 from Intermediate Grade 6 in acting skill.]
[You have advanced to Intermediate Grade 6 from Intermediate Grade 5 in singing skill.]
[Congratulations on your level up!]
Aiden was very surprised by the messages as he felt like it was a bit late. But he would take it anyway.
He had expected it in a way as he had gotten a lot of experience after [Action Hero] and [Agnas]. It was the same with 'Joker' as it was a legendary song.
So, getting these notifications right now just made his day better.
'I hope Agnas will be happy in the afterlife.'
Smiling, he thought.
***
The next few days were full of nice surprises for Aiden. First of all, at the end of the week, [Agnas] earned a total of 178 million dollars at the box office, breaking even on the production cost.
A lot of critics and analysts had said the movie would need to maintain momentum to earn more than 150 million dollars and it would be hard to do. But the movie has surpassed expectations.
The good reviews and the audience reaction was making it both a critical and commercial success. Though, the main reason was also the songs.
Songs like 'Joker' and 'Therapy' had gone viral in a week with both of them entering the Global Top 50 charts on Melody. Even on MeTube, there were a lot of covers on them.
Especially 'Joker'. A lot of news websites and magazines have written exclusive articles on it.
