"Shalini?" Avinash asked confused. "Yaaru machan andha mickey mouse ah?" He asked Rakshan. "Avale dhan, ippo appa ku P.A va work panra." Rakshan told. "P.A na appa kuda dhana travel pannirkanum? Epdi ivangaluku adi padala?" He asked. "Ennaku Vela irrundhuchu, naa sir kuda pogala." She told. "Oh!! Adheppdi? Ungluku accident nadakkum nu munnadiye teriyuma enna?" He questioned, his eyes breathing fire. "Aama, naa dhan poi break wire ah pudungnen!!" She added sarcastically. "Shalini!" Rakshan chided. "Pinna enna thangam? Enna doubt padra maari pesran paaru!!" She exclaimed. "Adhu epdi da correct ah accident anniku mattum ava varala!!" He exclaimed. "Ennaku vera personal aana Vela irrundhuchu!! Adhu sir ku eh teriyum!!" She reasoned.
"Machan!! Thangam!! Rendu perum konja neram summa irrunga!! Avi, Shalini endha thappum pannirka maata, adhuku Naanum enga appavum guarantee!!" He told while the duo still glared at each other. "Shalu ma, night ella Inga irrundhu pathadhu podhum, veetuku kelambu." Rakshan's dad, Parthiban told to divert their attention. "Illa uncle, naa wait panren." She told and he was about to argue when the doctor walked in. "Doctor avaruku ippo epdi irruku?" They asked. "Avaru ippo coma stage la irrukaru, eppo consciousness varum nu terila." He told and the entire crowd in the waiting hall sighed. The news began spreading like wild fire and soon the billion dollar question arised, "Who is the next CM?"

The news debate took place, a man in white shirt, a member of KOK party (Mahesh's ruling party)... Yelled, "Enga Indha katchi aarambichadhu lirndhu irrukura, Vamshi dhan adutha CM!!" While another party member yelled at the same time, "Yen Namma, Ganeshan aiyya vum dhan katchi la irrundharu!! Avaru dhan adutha mudhal amaichar!!" There was havoc in the interview, same happened in the party office. A huge commotion prevailed, Parthiban was trying his best to handle the commotion but was failing miserably. He reached back to the hospital.
Mahesh Chakravarty was lying on the bed, Shalini was standing by the door watching Avinash walk upto his dad. He collapsed and sat on the chair. "Naa politics Kula Vara koodadhu nu enna thaniya London anipchinga, tirumba India Vara vena nu sonninga, ana enna oru thadava paakanum nu kooda ungaluku thonala la?" He asked emotionless to the unconscious man. "That's were you are wrong." Parthiban added. Avinash looked up at him. "I can enter right?" He asked and Avi nodded. "Unna daily pakkanum nu solluvaru, avaru unna politics vittu thalli vecharu, odhuki vekkala." He told and Shalini's eyes widened on what it meant.
"Avinash, unga appa enkitta konja naliku munnadi sonnaru, nee tirumba India ku varanum nu, vandhu party ah paathukanum nu." He continued. "Enna solla varinga?" Avinash enquired. "Nee dhan adutha CM aaganum." He told and Avi froze. "Uncle!! Naa epidi?!! Adhuvum Indian politics!!" He exclaimed. "Avinash ippo nee mattum aaglana Ganesh ah? illa Vamshi ah? nu party rendu ah odanjirum pa!! Ivalo varushama unga appa serthu vecha ella per um manna pogum!!" He continued. "Unga party epdi pona ennaku enna? CM aana andha convoy, andha protection, eppovume suthi naalu per uh, posting kaga kaal la vilaravanga!! Yuck!" He exclaimed.
"Ennaku puriyudhu, ipdi thideernu solren nu, but konja naal dhan pa, idhu oru stand by CM maari dhan, adhukulla appa tirumba vantalo illa Ganesh or Vamshi yaarachu oruthar compromise pannita CM post lirndhu unna eduthudalaam, maximum, minji minjinpona oru aaru maasam dhan pa aagum!!" Parthiban continued. "Uncle, ennaku idhellam set aagadhu, pesama neengal eh aayidunga." Avi told rolling his eyes.
Shalini who was silent spectator till then, spoke up,"Anga dhan konjam idikudhu, ippo unna thavara vera yaaru naalayum nikka mudiyadhu because yaar vandhalum party la Vamshi sir ko illa Ganesh sir ko dhan internal voting la vote pannuvanga, but Mahesh sir oda condition ipdi irrukara naala, avara pathi Yaarum thappa pesa maatanga, using that sympathy, we can make the entire party vote for you!!"
"Shalini na Shalini dhan!!" Parthiban added. "Nalla Vela ava politics la erangala." He told chuckling but Avi was still silent. "Uncle ennaku serious ah idhellam set aagadhu." He voiced out. "Ennakum apdi dhan uncle thonnudhu, konja naliku dhan naalum, ipdi oru aal ah vechikutu oru state ah nadathuradhu romba kashtam!! Ivaru ah CM aaki adhula Vara problems ah deal panni, adhu periya problem ah vedichu, party maanam poradhuku, adha rendave odailam." Shalini suggested eyeing Avinash. "Enna paatha problem create panra maari irruka?" He asked. "Illa problem eh nee dhan dra maari irruku!!" She argued back. "Shalini!!" Parthiban chided. "Kadupu ethran my lord!!" She whined and he spared a chuckle.
Shalini's words triggered his ego. "Uncle naa CM aaguren!!" He told, before he could realise what it meant. Shalini chocked on thin air while Parthiban smiled widely walking out to share the information. Avinash smirked at her. "Problem naan ah illa unnaku problems Vara pogudha nu paaru!" He challenged. She gulped, "Ennaku bayama irruku, nee mertna naala illa, en state oda nelama ya yosichu." She replied. "Unnaku vaai romba jasthi ah dhan irruku!!" He told. "Mooda veikren." He challenged. "Unnaku thimuru jaasthi ah irruku, adanga veikren." She challenged and they had a glare down.
"Avinash party office varaikum vaa pa, let's make it official." Parthiban added from outside. Avinash got up and walked close to her, beside the door. "What a waste of your looks, konja pesama irrundhirudha, you would have actually been attractive!!" He added in his bass voice. "Same goes there, if you wouldn't have been such a dumb egoist, who acts without thinking, you might have actually been attractive!" She snapped back, still battling with his eyes. "Unna CM aagitu vechikren di!!" He told gritting his teeth as he walked away.
