Highlights
Around the Oval table made of Italian Oak, a group of old, but powerful men were at discussion. Seems they have the premonition of someone observing them through the windows covered with concrete, facing large slabs of concrete walls (what do you expect underground?).
Around the Oval table made of Italian Oak, a group of old, but powerful men were at discussion. Seems they have the premonition of someone observing them through the windows covered with concrete, facing large slabs of concrete walls (what do you expect underground?). Still to be sure, eminent lawyer KapiSeeBal had twisted the Venetian blinds and peeked into the darkness beyond. He checked the carpet that covered from wall to wall over the Italian marble also.
(Any similarities with the ambience of Don Carleone's chamber are purely incidental)
[Under the darkness of the broken street lamp, both Bhakt and Chamcha are sitting, their eyes fixed on the ten inch screen fixed to the pole with a nylon rope. Behind them Apple Man was handling the joystick that controls the 'drone fly' made by Chinese in Noida, an initiative of 'Make in India'. Bhakt was busy grinding the tobacco, lime and what not. Chamcha was impatiently alternating his looks from the screen to the rubbing palms of Bhakt. The street was silent and even dogs have gone to sleep for the fear of Muffler Man. Suddenly the screen came live. Apple Man slowly zoomed out and they understood the drone was focusing out of the nose of 'Mian Shake Air' and they could see him palming the imaginary beard. Now, let's witness the historical Oval table conference]
God Mother: By George, who recommended this judge of HC? SeeBall, you're the law minister earlier. What were you doing?
SeeBall: Momma, we are checking his anecdotes. Seems he was cleared by IB during the time of Shavraj.
Ah-Mad Patel: See, SeeBall, let me be frank with you. We are fed up with you. You zero loss theory dazed the nation for one year and before we regained conscious, we were shifted to opposition. Even after taking the support of CD Singhvi and others, you couldn't win the case. Moreover, you people took fees! From us. From the God Mother! Really lawyers are leeches.
SB: No Mad, actually it was CD's idea to fight it legally. I was telling from the first we are fighting the case with a maniac and not a legally trained leech. Nobody heard me.
George: But, why didn't you pay the Judge? I already told you to do so.
CDS: Our treasurer -cum- client, Motewala Bora had not released any funds.
Motewala Bora: From where I could give? We're supposed to sell some of the real estate and get money. This case by Subbu prevented us from doing any transactions of this property.
GM: Stop squabbling like kids lost a galli cricket match. Anyway, now there are summons. What we are going to do now? Think about the future course of action.
Pappu (taking lollipop out of mouth): Momma, we should..
GM: Shut up! Keep that LP in your mouth.
Sulking Pappu looked at Mouni Kaka, who was staring into the space. Seeing no response, Pappu resumed grinding the lollipop.
Azad Gulam: Momma, don't worry. We will fight it out in the court and in the parliament as well.
Everybody looked at the Slave, who volunteered for life.
AG: Let CDSinghvi and Seeball go to court and get another date. Fresh summons, etc. Meanwhile, we fight in the parliament against the Government. They need us to pass few legislations. If they are serious on these legislations, they will see the summons are taken back.
Mouni Baba casted a pitiful look at AG, looked at Chidu and again turned his head upwards, resuming his stare into the universe.
Chidu: Ghghgh...
GM: You can talk.
Chidu: Thanks Amma. If we fight in the parliament, Naidu will ask what we are fighting for. We cannot answer this question. It may be better to engage a professional lawyer, like my wife - rather than depending on this zero hair loss Seeball. See, he lost all his baal and says there is no loss. If we could only procrastinate the case for another three to four years, we will be back in power. And you are well aware of how it can be misused.
GM: Yes! I know it like the back of my hand. I am the daughter-in-law of the Emergency era.
Ah-Mad: Momma, this dialogue would be better for the scribes.
Atmosphere in the room became a bit lighter with smiles, except Mouni and Pappu who were in their own world.
A Columbian girl wearing shorts and a vest entered the room, pushing trolley with tea kettle and cups.
Pappu stopped sucking on the lollipop and looked at the girl.
CD Singhvi (in the ears of George): Is she not Veronique Cartelli, daughter of Columbian drug lord?
George (smiling): Our Momma is better than her mother-in-law. She didn't repeat the mistake her MIL did. If she refuses the marriage, Pappu may keep her in Robby's home and live in that farm house. So, she invited her and made her a waitress. Even Papa Cartelli felt his daughter would be safe in the protection of SPG, so he tacitly agreed for this arrangement.
SeeBall: Thank God! Momma is a quick learner.
George: Thank Ekta Kapoor! 'Kyon Ki SaasBhiKabhiBahuThi'.
CD saw Pappu handover a packet of CDs to Veronique hiding from his mother's gaze.
CDS (In a low tone - to Pappu): What are these CDs?
Pappu (with a weird look): Not your CDs. Vero is learning Hindi and so want to watch Hindi serials. These are of 'Kyon Ki SaasBhiKabhiBahuThi'.
Veronique took the packet and left, smiling at CD & Pappu.
Watching live, Bhakt& Chamcha looked at one another, listening to the snore of Apple Man.
