Sony said to her brother "You are the dumbest of all. How could you do that to me ? You should have told me earlier that he is planning all this ?" and Naveen retorted "How would I know that you guys are having a fight."
Shriya shook her head saying "No, It's not that. We are fine. It's just that I am feeling nervous. Only recently I knew how much Abhi earns per month and what is his net worth and what is the total worth of Malhotras. Gouthami is very talented and is a renowned doctor ans she is good enough for Rahul but for Abhi....
Moreover they need a sensible daughter-in- law, not someone like me who is hot tempered and tom boy types."
Sony agreed saying "That's right. A similar problem is bugging me too. This Sony is a fake one, this playful nature is just a shell, deep inside I am that still that shy girl who is afraid to do things as I wish. But what Kunal likes is that shell. I feel fake ."
Naveen said "You girls are more dumber than what I thought. Do you think your men are some fools. They are the people who one cannot mess with. They have eyes of hawks and brains of foxes.
Nothing can escape their sight and if they want you, believe me they thought everything and they considered each and everything. They are not the kind of people who will give into emotions. They are very practical and logical people.
Moreover you guys are not thinking straight. Let me tell girls. I know what you are like earlier."
He turned towards Shriya and said "Taht tim boy types thing is in your brain. But now you have changed into a sensible girl. Now you are thinking before you speak or do something.
You are considerate about others and you can handle that family. Don't forget that you are the genius student whom the whole town appreciated and you will achieve more if you want to and if you put your heart into it.
I know what tou have gone thrigh all these years and I am very proud of you."
He then turned towards Sony and said "You on the other hand was a very sensible girl. But you have toughened up now. You can real with your own problems. Making Kunal fall for you is you is not an easy thing and you did it.
Believe me you will be fine. You know how to deal with your problems. You will be responsible for your deeds and it's a very good quality. Your free spirit is not a shell but a shield you prepared yourself."
He then said "You guys changed for the best and I am very proud of you girls. Now stop thinking about this all worthiness and not true self. First learn to love yourwelf then only you can take this step."
Naveen convinced them and Sony and Shriya got relaxed. They smiled and jokwd and thanked him "Thanks Naveen". He sighed in relief "Atleast now your senses are back."
He then told them "Now move your a$$es and shop. You girls are getting married to the two most eligible bachelors in the whole country and you should be cloud nine. Buy whatever you want. The entire city is yours." Brahmini made a pout asking "Then me ?" He said "Of course my queen. You can too. But remember I have small pockets." and they all laughed.

Abhi sat in his office going through a few documents and Uday who sat on the couch asked suddenly "I think something is wrong with that girl Bhanu" and Abhi said "I don't understand what's bothering Shri these days ?"
Uday turned his head to look at his friend who is still working with his head held down and said "She is after our shares, she wants to invest in industry now and is ready for any amount of money".
Abhi didn't bother woth Uday's words and said "May be I should bring Preeti back." and Uday said trying to ignore his words "She just wants you tobe the main lead of a film."
Abhi said "May be I should wait a few more days. Actually I will talk to her today".
Uday stood up angrily and asked "Sir, Are you even listening to me ?" and Abhi said "I am not interested in such trivial matters."
His attitude is so indifferent that Uday wanted to beat him up. He controlled his anger and joked "But I think she is interested in you".
Abhi looked up and brushed off the topic "Don't bulls!!t" and Uday said "I have been thinking about this. Eversince you announced about your relationship status, she started gathering information about you and our firm." Abhi replied in a lazy tone "It's not my problem".
Uday continued "Eversince you announced Shriya and her friends as a part of the art department of your film her manager started to appraoch a few directors who signed a film with you and wanted to collaborate with them."
Abhi looked up from his documents towards his friend and asked "You mean she started all this after we announced these three" and Uday nodded his head "I think. Why ?"
Abhi became serious in an instant and asked "You mean she might know who Shriya is ?" and Uday was silent for a moment.
Uday said "Might be. If you see the pictures you can guess". and Uday continued to express his thoughts after a moment "She must be interested in you. If it's true and if she knew about Shriya and yet if she still wants to become a part of the production, then she must be planning something.
