One fine day telephoned to mother if Anurag.

Hello, can I speak to Padamati.

Padamati (mother of Anurag):

Yes. I am Padamati speaking.

Who is on the other side please?

Kousalya:

Myself madam.

I am Kousalya speaking. Rani is my daughter.

Anurag might have told you about Rani’s alliance issue.

I wanted to speak in this connection.

Suddenly stopped further, thinking that what to speak.

Padamati:

Yes madam.

Anurag told me.

If Anurag is interested in this alliance, we have no objection.

But, we are also looking for my daughter marriage alliance.

If this settles, we wanted to perform both the marriages at a time.

This is our thinking, told the inner opinion to Kousalya.

Kousalya to Padmavati

If Mr&MrsPadamati visits to our house at Bengaluru once and see Rani, it is good and it will be nice too.

If once you see and okay it then we can wait further.

If your daughter's marriage gets settle, then we can perform Rani and Anurag marriage.

Padamavati:

We will think over the matter once and inform to Anurag. Definitely, we will meet at your place.

Kousalya:

OK.

We will meet shortly.

Then the phone was disconnected.

After two months, Rani and Anurag came on leave to Bengaluru.

Anurag has brought his parents and sister Sudha (Anurag sister) to Bengaluru.

Rani and Sudha sat in a room.

Anurag with his parents and Rani's parents (Kousalya and Nischal Rao/ sat in another room and we're discussing matters related to the subject.

Kousalya:

Is there any indication that your daughter's (Sudha) marriage is going to be settled?

Padamavati:

Two or Three matches we have seen.

One match we will settle, told to Kousalya.

Kousalyato Padmavati

Any dowry, gold, silver etc...

Can we ask; or not?

Expressed the doubt

Padamavati:toKousalya

Ni dowry please.

We don't want any gold or silver..

If, Rani becomes our family member, it is fine. Rani if understand us,

Okay. It is good.

Venkat (Padamavati Husband):

Yes Kousalyaji and Nischal Rao ji. Is it Okay for this?

Nischal Rao:

Don't have any ambiguity.

Our Rani, where it may be, she will understand well and get settled.

Rani is very well known about this.

Rain's professional life and personal life, she understands well.

She has the courage and daringness to control the corruption and goondagiri in the society, wherever she may be.

This is my firm opinion on Rani.

Because, I knew well about Rani from her child-hood.

(Discussions were going on. In the meantime from other room, Rani, Anurag, Sudha came into parent’s room where all are discussing.)

=================

Sudha (D/o Padamavati):

Mummy, shall we go?

Anurag: Mummy. Everything is OK. Have you told my opinion to them?

Sudha:

Yes Brother Anurag.

If I want to tell about my sister-in-law, Rani, there is so much to tell.

She is beautiful, good natured, well behaved and qualified, good profession, which, Rani choose itself indicate her quality of mind.

Rani's tackling to fight against corruption and control the anti-social and bad elements, is good, as she is fit for this job.

Rani has an ingenious vision.

No doubt, Yes I am correct, told to Rani, to would be sister-in-law.

Venkat (Padamavati Husband):

Okay,

Now we all go out and have lunch in a hotel.

From there we will leave for Airport.

After lunch, all went to Airport and given a sendoff.
