Khopkar returns to
Manorama saying, “I know this idiot since his childhood. His
egotistic behavior is not new to me. But remember Shridhar is good
and that place is no more a rustic village. Thing have changed
altogether. Moreover, our Rashmi is a botany, microbiology student
and this boy Shridhar is doctor in those subjects, and that is why I
feel they will be better match. As for Damu, Nilu is betrothed to him
and so we should respect the desire of the two late mothers of Damu
and Nilu. Manorama agrees with Khopkar's sentiments and tells him to
be patient.
Khopkar reaches the
hotel and finds that a telegram has come for him. He opens and reads
that Nanasaheb is coming with Shridhar and Nilu to see Damodar and
they want to book one big suite for the three in Anants's hotel.
Now this situation
is rather difficult to handle; if Anant sees them, gets wild, and
misbehaves it would be not good for the business and so he calls
Damu.
Damu comes to know
that Nilu is coming. Damu is a chaloo boy as for girls are concerned
and so he enquires how is Nilu. Khopkar tells him Nilu is more
beautiful than Rashmi, rest he better finds as she actually comes.
Khopkar warns him if he misses Nilu he will repent for all his life
so be careful.
Damu is anxious to
see Nilu but according to the customs he cannot see her like that.
Khopkar explains to him.
Damu is now in two
minds and promises Khopkar to keep away from Rashmi from that time
until he sees Nilu.
Khopkar knows that
if Damu on his own returns to Nilu; Anant can do nothing.
Hotel reception
hall and Nanasaheb, Shridhar and Nilu are entering.
Khopkar personally
receives them and shows them there suite. Nanasaheb makes the payment
immediately for the suite and they relax. Balcony of the suite is
opening in the interior portion of the hotel so that standing in the
balcony one can see the swimming pool of the hotel. Anant’s chamber
has a balcony that opens on the same side so that one standing in one
balcony can see other standing in the other balcony.
Nanasaheb and
Shridhar meet Khopkar in his cabin and want to discuss the matters
but they did not want Nilu to hear them. They tell Khopkar that Nilu
is upset on knowing that Damu is not going to marry her and she is in
a very bad mood. Khopkar phones Damu and calls him to see him but
does not inform him that Nanasaheb and Shridhar are here.
Khopkar tells
Nanasaheb that they had better meet Damu in some other hotel for
better privacy. They agree and the three move out to other hotel of
Khopkar’s friend a few blocks away. Damu meets Nanasaheb and
Shridhar and they talk well. Nanasaheb smilingly take out a colored
photo of Nilu and show it to him. Damu is shocked at that photo.
“What? Is this Nilu?”
Khopkar
looking to him nods positive and tells him to meet her at the supper
that evening. Damu accepts the invitation. “It is an invitation
from Khopkar to all the four. Here in this hotel at 8 o’clock.”
Khopkar announces.
