Arnav was passing by Aakash and Payal's room when he happened to overhear a conversation between them. He wouldn't have stayed but when he heard words related to their current financial situation, he stopped,

Payal was trying to convince Aakash, "Aakash ji, please don't say no without listening fully."

"But Payal, how can you manage it?" Aakash asked with concern

"It's not a big issue Aakash ji. You know that I like stitching designer clothes. I will do it in the afternoon. I mean Palash sleeps during that time, and I get a lot of free time. In fact, you know that I was already thinking of my boutique since many years now. You all go to office, Khushi has her own business, I also want to help in some way."

Arnav didn't stay to hear more. He was touched how everyone in the family was trying to offer help in their own capacity. He himself had found newfound courage after his heart to heart with his Khushi and her immense trust on his capability.

But the question was still there, how to salvage the situation and their reputation? They needed some market breaking strategy, something that was unexpected and never seen before, something that would match with their previous project with that French company and in fact outshine its buzz!

He sighed and sat beside Pari. She was drawing something as usual. When he sat beside her, she immediately looked up with those beautiful eyes and gave him a heartwarming smile.

"What is my angel doing?" Arnav asked, pecking her soft cheek

She kept her palm on his cheek in return and tried to pull his attention to what she was doing, "Da" she said and pointed to her book

"What is it sweetheart?" Arnav asked curiously and with all the adoration in the world, looked at his baby's handiwork. He was always super proud of his kids' talents, whether it was Kavish's sports or Pari's drawings or Aru's-well she was a puzzle still!

Smilingly he looked at the book again and his eyes widened in surprise. She had drawn what looked like a baby-frock! Of course, she had copied from the picture on the other side of the book, but still! It was so good for a 2.5-years-old!

But that was not what turned the wheels in his head. It was a business idea that his baby unknowingly and innocently gave him!

Baby clothing!!!

Something that had a huge scope in Indian market, something that desperately needed good designs and something AR hadn't done yet. So it had surprise element, novelty and buzz!!!

He picked his baby and kissed her forehead and then called her mother to share the good news,

"Khushii!" he called out carrying Pari in his arms, as he walked in search of his wife

Next day, he pitched in this idea with AR's board of directors. Aakash and Mamaji were already informed over dinner last night and like every Raizada family member, they too immediately liked the idea. Arnav also had told the family about Pari being an inspiration to him and his baby was showered with many rounds of love and kisses, unknown to her what feat she had achieved!

"So, what do you think?" He asked once he finished talking. He knew everyone at AR was tensed these days and many amongst the board were experienced industry stalwarts, so it was even more critical to hear what they say.
