Episode 5

     Everybody including Shruti knew that this was something rare. She decided that she will contact him, if she needed any insight.

     She sent an email to him. The next day, he emailed back to her stating that she should do her MA in journalism and mass communications and then she'll be very honourably recruited as a journalist in his company. He asked her to think about it. She took a printout of that particular email and took its 10 colour photocopies and kept it in a safe place. She was overjoyed and took the major decision of doing MA in journalism and mass communications instead of IAS. Her parents were shocked. But her dad smiled because he was sure that this was indeed a better move.
     Kriti finished her MBBS. But there was not enough money in the household for her to pursue MD. So she was sent to Ratnagiri where her maternal grandparents lived. They had a nice alphonso mango plantation. Her grandparents made a comfortable living out of selling these.
