“What do you mean
by that? It is a question of my daughter’s life and you want me to
wait and watch? This is just not possible; I am leaving for Mumbai
today night.” Nanasaheb
Here Nilu listening
to the conversation feels giddy and sensing that a woman in the
meeting probably inmate of Khopkar’s family comes forward, holds
her, and takes her in side the house.
“Look at what has
happened to my little child and you talk of holding on?” Nanasaheb
roars.
Nanasaheb and
Shridhar look to each other Shridhar also looks very much annoyed,
“This is shear cheating, how Damu could think of it in the first
place.”
“Probably
because, Damu has not seen Nilu recently, remarks Khopkar airily and
tells his elder brother Jagan, “Nilu looks far more beautiful than
Rashmi!”
Every body in the
group laughs in chorus.
This reduces
tension and now Jagan wants to tell something very important to all
gathered and so tells them to be quiet.
“I want to tell
some important news to all and it is good news. Our Ashok Pednekar...
“
“What of him, the
poor fellow died in an encounter at Kashmir last year?” interrupts
some body.
“Please, let me
complete,” Jagan
“His young widow
Rupali is going to marry again. Her father-in-law Jayant Pednekar has
agreed to do the Kanyadaan!”
“This is really
very good news and who is that wise man to propose and accepts the
lady?” Shridhar
Pointing to
Pandurang he says, “Here he is!”
Every body
congratulates Khopkar and wishes him a very happy marriage. One woman
in the crowd asks, “But she is not alone, she has a daughter!”
“Jayant Pednekar
had promised to keep the girl as his grand daughter but Rupali
refuses to keep her away but; there is no problem since our hero
Pandurang willingly accepted the girl. He is very fond of children.”
Jagan’s wife explains with a grin.
We are all very
proud of you Pandurang, bravo! You are the real hero now, says other
fellow in the meeting.
Here at Mumbai in
Pranoti's room a big drama was under planning.
Scene of Pranoti’s
room. Two girls and Pranoti are assembled; are waiting for somebody.
“There she is!” exclaims one of the girls. Rashmi shoves in the
room in haste. She is panting. Pranoti signs her to sit and Rashmi
sits on the bed. There is nothing else to sit in that small room. All
the girls are now anxious to know Pranoti’s plan.
Pranoti standing in
front of the girls explaining her plan to catch Rahul and kidnap him
and then make him tell about his father and if he lies... Pranoti
moving her hands with fists indicates that they will beat him to get
the truth.
How shall we kidnap
him? Question by one girl
Remember Rahul is a
simple boy not habituated to fighting I think so, and so we shall ask
him to enter in a car driven by one of us. Of course, Rashmi’s car,
when he enters the car and sits next to you, Pranoti pointing to one
of the girls, Meena, continues, you will put this cotton gauze on his
nose so that he will sleep and then we shall take him to the farm
house of Rashmi’s father at Karjat and there he will be looked
after nicely until he tells about his father. Pranoti completes her
speech. Who will put that cotton gauze in between her breasts? Asks
Rashmi. And how to get that chloroform? Do not worry for that I have
made arrangements of that. Replies Pranoti confidently.
“I
do not want to hurt him and how will this girl put the gauze on his
nose?” questions Rashmi.
