1990's ,

Raghav rao : aunty !

Charumati ( adarsh's mother ) : yes ! It's me. What happened to him ?

Raghav rao : actually ! He is missing . From 4 years.

Charumati : what ? I thought he was just busy and he didn't contact me.

The police is extremely tensed now. He wondered how this struggling doctor knows mrs.charumati.

Charumati : what are you doing mr.?

The higher officials came there.

Police : we are searching madam.

Charumati contacted other officials and with her power she made the state police minister to arrange a special team. Raghav rao understood what he lacked till now.

Charumati : tell me everything that you know clearly. Let's go home and speak.

Charumati and raghav rao went to raghav's house. Sharada opened the door and got shocked as she saw charumati. She welcomed her inside and went into the kitchen for bringing some refreshments.

Maya came to the living room and saw charumati. She don't like new people visiting her home. She went inside ignoring charumati who is calling her to come near with a smile. As maya went inside her smile stopped. Raghav rao gave a faint smile.

Charumati : your kid is too weird but cute.

Sharada kept the tray on the table and stood beside raghav rao.

Charumati : why are you standing ? Sit dear .

Sharada sat beside raghav rao.

Charumati : now tell me !

Raghav rao : actually adarsh is working on something from many years . He is extremely secretive about that. He didn't reveal anything to even me. I met   bhaiyya ( adarsh's adoptive brother ) and he said he will also try tp search for him. But from next day bhaiyya is also missing.

Charumati : bhaiyya ?

Raghav rao : he is like a brother to adarsh. He claims Adarsh as his own brother. He became everything for adarsh. Even father and mother.

Raghav rao stressed the word mother. Charumati got uncomfortable. Sharada held raghav's hand. Maya is listening to the conversation by standing behind the curtain.

Charumati : ok ! When did you last speak with him ?

Raghav rao : i last spoke with him before the day when he went missing. I scolded him for not being at my house before an important day. The day when he went missing was the day when i have named my daughter. As he didn't come for naming her we didn't celebrate the day grandly.

After speaking for sometime charumati left.
