Mahamahim had come for some serious business with Karn regarding the difficult situations in the Aryavrat.
"Duryodhan had planned his own brother's murders in the Varnavrat. Because of that Shakuni he is completely distracted from the path of dharma. You are his friend Karn and I know you are a noble man. Only you can drag him out of Shakuni's clutches." Mahamahim said.
It was a private conversation and there were only the trusted people in the court.
"Are the pandavas safe mahamahim? What about Rajmaata Kunti?" Karn asked with concern.
"Thanks to you. They are alive. If you had not informed us about Duryodhan's evil plan then the pandavas would have been dead. Thanks for informing Karn." Mahamahim expressed his gratitude.
"I dont want Mitr Duryodhan to murder his own brothers and whatever it is I didnt want the pandavas dead. They are good human beings. Maybe they did not treat me properly but they are noble men and saving their lives was a duty. And Rajmata Kunti was also along with them. I have extreme respect for Rajmata since childhood. It's good to know that they are safe. Where are they anyway?" Karn asked.
"They are disguised as Brahmins and are in hiding. Hope this information will remain safe with you." Mahamahim said.
"Not to worry Mahamahim. All my trusted people are in the sabha now. The pandavas will remain safe and so will this information with us." Karn declared.
Mahamahim thanked Karn one last time.
"Oh and congratulations on your wedding Putr. Where is Maharani of Ang?" Mahamahim asked with joy.
Karn was going to tell him the truth when Meghna entered the sabha.
"Pranipaat Mahamahim. It's an honour to meet you. I have heard so much about you. " She exclaimed with excitement.
Meghna was so excited to meet Mahamahim Bheesm . Bheesm was one of her favourite characters. He was a good human stuck in his family politics. She pitied the man.
"Its indeed a pleasure to meet you . I had noticed you in Karn's chamber earlier but you were hiding from me." Pitamah said smiling.
Karn and Meghna looked at him open mouthedly.
"Actually my clothes..." Meghna was going to speak.
"I am an aged man my dear. I have recieved my education from Bhagwan Parshuram. How could you think that I'll judge you based on your clothes? Clothes are materialistic and I am not that shallow Putri. You have the right to wear whatever you want. Many people in this society will disagree with me even challenge my thought but I know my values and I have not forgotten the teachings of my great guru. You are free to wear anything you want before me Putri. It will never make me uncomfortable. " mahamahim said and smiled heavenly.Meghna was too impressed to speak. She had never imagined such an answer from Mahamahim Bheesm . Now she truly respected the man's progressive thoughts and ideologies. She couldn't stop herself from admiring the man. Mahamahim was cool!
Karn nodded his head completely agreeing with his statement.
'Now this Karn is acting as if he too believes the same while a moment ago he was roasting me for my shorts. Hypocrite!' Meghna thought.
Hardly did she know the reality!
"Devi Meghna, Radhama has called for you." A dasi came and declared in the court.
"I should leave but it was wonderful meeting you mahamahim . Hope we will meet again soon." Meghna expressed her genuine happiness on the acquaintance.
After Meghna left Mahamahim also asked to take his leave.
"I will also take my leave Angraj. You are a very kind and noble man and your wife too is a splendid woman. It was really nice meeting you and your wife. You both look really good together." Mahamahim said smiling.
Before Karn could protest mahamahim had already left the palace.
"Now Mahamahim feels Meghna, who by the way is my accidental wife , is my wife and I dont know what will happen when he meets Vrushali. Why is my life taking such disastrous turns?" " Karn muttered to himself.
