IN CAPTIVITY, VERSION 2

Since Priya is from a middle class family, her dreams were also low budget. So when MGR and S.Devi rode a chariot in the colorful, twinkling galaxies, Priya and ACD danced away the first stanza in Adayar planetorium and the second stanza in a 2 acre (yet to be turned into plots) Gooduvanchery farmland....

Folks, this is a slightly different twist to Giri's story:

Suddenly, two men in white and white rush into the living room, rudely forcing Priya back into the real world. Priya is stunned. SKPD and Kanduvetti Ramamoorthy are eyeballing her, SKPD's cheek muscles twitching vigorously and Kandu's long, well-oiled moustache keeping time with its wagging.

"Wh .. what are you doing here? What do you want. This is AC Sir's house, didn't you know that?"

"Yes, we very well know that. But we didn't know you'd be here. This makes it all the more easier for us." Says, Kandu.

Adds SKPD, "Yes, our bumbling right-hand men are no match for AC, so we thought we'd take him on ourselves, finishing him off once and for all. But your presence has made it even more convenient for us. Using you as a pawn, we'll ask him to shoot himself if he wants you freed."

"Ha, ha, ha", adds Kandu, immediately grabbing Priya while SKPD ties a gag around her mouth that is wide open in shock. As she struggles and remonstrates, the two men tie up her hands to the arm of the sofa.

Meanwhile, MGR is poignantly miming the lyrics to "Anbe vaa …", and Kandu and SKPD get engrossed in the action, both singing along tunelessly as in a seedy karaoke lounge.

Ten minutes later, AC's antiquated Padmini Fiat police car trundles up the driveway. SKPD and Kandu wink to one another and take up their places at the two sides of the doorway, each armed with a cricket bat that they found in AC's closet.

AC's heart meanwhile is thumping vigorously. His mother had already rung him earlier to announce that Priya was waiting for him at home. His thoughts are starting to run wild. Should I sing a Hariharan song or a Karthik song as I court Priya? Should we run around the dining table? Or the coffee table? Should we imagine ourselves to be frolicking around on the snowy mountains of the Swiss Alps? No, no. That's pass. We should imagine ourselves cruising around in the warm climes of the Carribbean.

But little is AC prepared for the scene before him. As he opens the door, he sees a gagged Priya struggling on the sofa. In spite of all the years of training, he fails to whip out his gun but instead rushes in clumsily to save his sweetheart. Just then, SKPD and Kandu leap out from behind their hiding places and whack him with the cricket bats till he falls to the ground, wincing in pain. They remove the gun from his holster, tie up his hands behind him and order him to sit on the floor. AC complies reluctantly.

Priya meanwhile is shedding tears copiously and AC tries to console her from afar, assuring her that he is OK. He then demands to know why SKPD and Kandu have taken his sweetheart hostage. "I know you have your sights on me. You want me out of the picture, out of your way. Kill me, if you want. But why take the helpless girl hostage?"

"Hey, Durai. Do you think we are fools? Says SKPD, "All we ask is a life for life. If you want Priya to be released and set free, it's easy. We'll give you back your gun. All you have to do is shoot yourself. And then Priya goes free. Now, don't forget that we have our own guns securely tied up under our vehsties, so don't try a fast one."

Kandu prepares to lift up his veshtie to unveil his gun but, not wanting to offend Priya's sensibilities, AC persuades him not to bare himself before her.

Priya meanwhile looks pleadingly at Kandu, asking for her gag to be removed.

"Anna, shall we remove this girl's gag. There's no one around to hear her scream if she wants to and I don't think she will bite us since we are armed."

"OK, OK, but keep her handcuffs on. You never know what tricks girls have up their sleeves these days. They have mastered the martial arts and what not."

Kandu unties Priya's gag, expecting her to rush to AC and massage his aching muscles. Instead, Priya winks at Kandu and licks her lips lasciviously.

Just then, L. R. Eswari starts to belt out a lusty number in her inimitable style. "Vandhaal enohdu vandhein …." One of those come-hither songs that Eswari was so famous for.

Kandu is now sitting down. Priya moves up to him and starts a sensuous lap dance routine, her handcuffed hands lifted high up above her head.

"Priya! What the hell are you doing!" An outraged AC shouts. Priya walks up to AC, eyeballs him for a moment and then returns to take her position astride Kandu's lap. Kandu is by now so aroused that he gets up, grabs Priya by the waist and starts doing a tango with her since the music on Sun TV has changed to another old MGR-Saroja Devi duet. Priya is a little irritated since the song in question is "Andruvandhadhu adheh nilaa, cha cha cha." This country bumpkin doesn't know the difference between a tango and a cha cha cha, she thinks to herself.

Meanwhile, SKPD is fuming. "Kandu, stop this nonsense. What's with you?"

Priya whispers to Kandu that SKPD is jealous of him and that he should shut him up first. Kandu agrees and starts to wrestle with SKPD. Meanwhile, MGR is battling 20 goons single-handedly in a silambal fight on TV and passersby are whistling to cheer on our Anna.

Minutes later, the bigger and beefier SKPD hurls Kandu to the floor and Kandu lands beside AC. Priya rushes up to Kandu, hugs him, consoles him and whispers that he should enlist AC to get rid of SKPD first and then she will help him get rid of AC. She adds that she had written off AC from her life the moment he rushed through the doorway carelessly without whipping out his gun for protection first.

SKPD is oblivious to what is going on as he is supremely confident in his wrestling skills. He in fact is cheering on MGR on Sun TV.

Suddenly, AC pounces on an unsuspecting SKPD and the two engage in a wrestling match. Kandu had untied not only AC but also Priya and she now folds up her saree and cheers on the two men with a piercing whistle. Whee, whee, whee!

AC holds a black belt in karate and soon manages to knock out the bigger man, who lies writhing in pain. AC picks up a flower pot and breaks it on SKPD's head, sending him off to star-gaze for a few minutes. He then rushes to Kandu and whips off his veshtie to reveal a badly-tattered komanam that leaves little to the imagination.

"What, Kandu! You are a money-lender but you can't even afford to buy yourself boxer shorts?" asks AC.

Kandu is totally overcome by embarrassment in Priya's presence and cringes behind the sofa. He pleads with AC to return his veshtie. AC insists that he lay down the gun first. Kandu does so timidly, saying, "My maanam is more important than my life."

AC throws back the dirty veshtie to Kandu, who immediately wraps it around himself. Turning to Priya, Kandu then says, "Come, Priya, let's go start our new life."

Priya now looks at the two men in turn. AC or Kandu? She is in a quandary. The policeman who carelessly rushed in upon seeing her tied up? Or the rogue who was so dumb as to fall for her ruse?

That was a very good one Bon. i like your writing.

Giri, Bonheur: Just read your poosutrals - Very funny.

🤣

Thanks for your comments, Madhu. I hadn't intended to contribute short stories (serious or otherwise) to this forum but you've inspired me to with your maiden story earlier this year. Cheers, PS

All you computer boffins out there, I need your help. I've been trying to post my own avatar by providing a link to a photo on a personal website but can't understand why I keep getting a blank. My picture doesn't show up. Any advice. Thanks in advance.
