"So mr.malhotra as we all know that you've created yourself without any financial support and godfather in this business industry, so who has been your inspiration?" Nandini asked who was cladded in black coloured business ncoat and manik was wearing matching three piece suit. Both were sitting on a big arranged set-up setted for the interview.
The one mike, connected to his ear was troubling him all along, finally he touched where it was troubling him the most pulling it out so that his ear doesn't pain anymore. Nandini see this and stoodup to help him straight away. She bend and re fixed his mike and then again set on his lips. When nandini sat it, he saw her with wide eyes. Her arrival in his deserted life is like as if a rose started to grow in the sahara. Mnaik was so happy at that moment when he found that he finally have someone who is wholely his. He won't mind if his friends will tease him taking her name because yes, it's her, it's gonna be only her.
Finally nandini sat again and show a thumbs up to camara man who was shocked with manan's chamistry before. Finally they start the recording.
"Who else, of course i have taken the inspiration from my father to be someone on your own. I take inspiration from him everyday. He is my role model." Manik answered confidently.
"Mr.malhotra you've completed your graduation even your masters from the Cambridge University, so can you tell us something about it?" Nandini asked with a sweet smile.
"Of course ms.agarwal, the reason behind my studies there was not to embrace their culture. I was there to learn techniques and tactics which i have learn from there. One and the most amazing thing i learnt from there is, there is no age to achieve the success, the day you start hardworking the success will find you itself." Manik answer looking comfidently at the camera.
"Wow what a beautiful line by mr. Manik malhotra. So our question is what difference did you found between the youths of two other countries?" Nandini read watching her paper.
" Youth are same, hardworking and very dedicated towards goal rather mentality of parents and job interviewers are different. There you gets a job if you have skills but here multinational companies ask you about your working experience. I don't understand one thing a kid of 21, who just completed his education what kind of a working experience these people wants from new comers. You are suppose to give them experience. One more major difference a found between parents of both countries were there girls are not forced to do household choras. Parents feel equally responsible for their child if it's boy either a girl. Girls have free to marry on their own choice, the job system aren't biesed there between boys and girls." The hall become silent for sometime listening his answers.
"Thanks a lot mr.malhotra for the interview. One last question is left which is send by your millions of fan girls, so there question is what kind of girl you want as your wife?" Nandini asked and laughed for a change manik also laughed.
"Short height, long hair, naak per gussa, confident enough, you know she must fight with me for my entertainment. I just love to make her red angry nose white." Mnaik said everything looking at nandini and nandini was looking shockingly at her. It was true that when the road incident happened her nose went red in anger. Listening to Manik's cute answer everybody laughed but nandini couldn't. What he is implying at? What does he meant by that?
It's been just one week since they met and start meeting frequently because of the interview but that doesn't means nandini is interested in him. He was out of her league. After the interview is over nandini thanked him and shook his hand and then went away where he was walking after fastening the button of his blazer.
"Hey ms.agarwal, hello ms.agarwal." manik call her from behind.
Nandini stop on her tracks and look at him after turning back,"yes mr.malhotra............."
"Did you remember when you said you would do anything for me if i give you an interview? Then it's about time." Manik raised his eyebrows amusingly.
"Yes i remember mr.malhotra, but this offer is just for one time, you know." Nanndini told him after locking her hands on her check.
"Oh yes i know it's just for once but still do you remember your words precisely." He quired.
"Yeah i do."
"Then get ready tonight because i want you to have dinner with me. You can tell me your favourite cuisine and according to that we'll choose the restaurant." He explained. Nandini raised her eyebrows at her.
"Let's do one thing. If you want to have dinner with me then join me for dinner tonight at my home. Trust me mr.malhotra, i made really tasty food." Nandini offered and he didn't said anything. He just raised his eyebrows at her and went away smilingly. Nandini knew he will decline that's only why she offered him this.
Here manik got more happy, he was thinking to spending some time with her meantime he would try to know her well but now he felt more happy that he would be dining with her tonight and even have his dinner with her, her handmade dinner.
Manik went inside to say his dad bye bye but mr.malhotra just call him inside. He sat comfortably on one of the visiting chairs and look at his dad expectantly.
"Manik what do you think you are doing? Do you know how hurt she can get with your jokes?" Mr.malhotra said sternly and manik frowned.
"Wait dad, what are you implying? Make it clear please." Manik added.
"The qualities you've explained aren't those similar to what nandini actually have. Manik i am not fool neither she is that we both can not understand what you were trying to do. Nandini is strong and confident girl though, but you cannot ignore the incidence that happened with her recently. You just can't play joke like this infront of, the whole media. She is mature enough to not react on your joke but what you did was ridiculous." Mr.malhotra voice hold the strictness and manik look at him raised eyebrows. His dad got the correct point that he was pointing out a nandini while explaining about his future wife but why on this earth, he would joke about his feelings. He can never hurt nandini the way his father told him, it's rather shameful for him to think his father thinks this about him.
"Dad, i didn't made any joke. Nandini is really good girl and i genuinely like her. Don't think i hurted her feelings and going to hurt ever in future." Said manik assuringly. This made mr.malhotra a little curious and he look at his son with raised eyebrows.
"What's happening son? Firstly you said yes only and exclusively to her for interview and now you're saying things that you never believed before. Is everythig all right?" Mr.malhotra enquired.
"Dad you're here and i am here. Don't worry nothing will be hidden from you. Whatever will happen, everything will happen infront of you only." Manik smirked and went away while rolling his keys on forefinger and humming a beautiful melody. His father was staring at him with wide eyes.
