Location: MALHOTRA CONSTRUCTIONS, MUMBAI
Few days later, Maan called Armaan for Board of Director's meeting. Armaan was surprised at his request but was curious so decided to attend. When all Board of Directors were present Maan announced, "There is one position vacant on Board of Directors and that position will be filled by Dr.Armaan Malhotra."There was gasp from everyone around the table and most shocked was Armaan himself. Maan continued, "This office is branch of Khurana Constructions and in my absence all decisions will be taken by Dr.Armaan Malhotra. Also, he is the head of Board of Directors. Any of you gentlemen who do not agree with decision of Khurana Constructions are most welcome to leave the board. Now first thing on our agenda is..." Maan continued with the meeting amongst shocked Board of Directors. After two hours meeting was over. Slowly everyone stood up and were going to walk out of the Board room but stopped hearing Mr. Chadda who was fuming in anger and bursted out at Maan in a loud voice,"Tumhari himmat kaisi hui ki iss kal ke chokre ko meri jagah dene ki?" (How dare you give my position to this new comer?)
"Kya aap Head of Board of Directors hain?" (Are you the Head of Board of Directors?) Maan questioned but getting no response Mr. Chadda he continued, "Nahi naa? Toh aap kyun tilmilaa rahe hain? Aap kewal ek Director the Malhotra Constructions ke Board of Directors mei. Magar abb yeh Khurana Constructions hai Malhotra Constructions nahi. Aur naa hi Mr. Jaswant Chopra yahaan ke Head of Board of Directors hai. Mai chaahon toh poora Board of Directors ko badal doon magar mai bewajeh kissi hi naukari cheen ne mei vishwaas nahi karta. Ek baath aur batta doon aapko Mr.Jagtaap Chadda ki iss branch mei Khurana Constructions ke shares 75% hain aur aap sab Board of Directors ke milkar 15% aur Dr. Armaan Malhotra akele ke 10% toh uss hisaab se Dr. Armaan Malhotra ka poora haq banta hai Head of Board of Directors banne ka! Agar aapko yeh decision manzoor nahi hai toh aap jaa sakte hai." (No? Then why are you fuming? You were only a Director in Malhotra Constructions. But this no longer Malhotra Constructions, its Khurana Constructions. And neither is Mr. Jaswant Chopra Head of Board of Directors. If I wanted I could have changed the whole Board but I don't like snatching anyones livelihood. For your knowledge in Khurana Constructions, Mumbai Branch, Khurana Constructions shares are 75% and combined Board of Directors' 15% shares; and Dr. Armaan Malhotra's alone has 10%. So Dr. Armaan Malhotra has full right to be Head of Board of Directors ! If you are unhappy with this arrangement you can leave!) Chadda had just picked up his phone to dail when icy voice of Maan stopped him, "Ek baat aur aapko batta doon, isse pehle ki aap Babu ko keh kar union se strike karaayen. Babu jail mei hai!" (Before you call Babu to ask union to initiate strike, I would like to inform you that Babu is in jail!)
"KYA??" (WHAT??)
Just then Suprintendant of Police along with few constables entered and arrested him saying,"Mr. Jagtaap Chadda you are under arrest for embezzling and doing fraud against Khurana Constructions!"
When police was dragging Chadda outside the board room in front of rest of Board of Directors screaming,"MAI TUJHE DEKH LOONGA MAAN SINGH KHURANA!"(I will see you MAAN SINGH KHURANA!)
"MAI TUJHE ZINDAA NAHI CHODHONGA MAAN SINGH KHURANA!" (I will kill you MAAN SINGH KHURANA)
Unknown to everyone in the room, a pair of hazel eyes had just entered the room from side door and witnessed the whole scene and the owner of these hazel eyes was shivering in fear at Chadda's threat to Maan.
Later in the day during lunchtime Meera asked Gina to give Maan some important papers as she had to go to the otherside of city for site visit. "Gina, Maan Sir is in his cabin can you please get his signatures on this file as I'm running late!"
"Yes Ma'am!"
Gina gingerly knocked on the door and on being given permission, entered Maan's cabin. Seeing Maan, her love and her husband so close to her after such a long time all her love and longing came to surface which she was hiding and keeping it bottled up for past 5 yrs. Hearing no movement from the person entering his room, Maan looked up so see his sweetheart.
Today Gina had decided to wear Indian dress. She was wearing navy blue kurta with pinkish red emberiodery with navy churidaar and pinkish red dupatta. She was looking very beautiful.
Both of them were lost in each other's eyes when suddenly door opening broke their eye lock and brought Chadda's threat in front of Gina's eyes,"MAI TUJHE ZINDAA NAHI CHODHONGA MAAN SINGH KHURANA!"
Her fear took over her senses and without registering what she is saying she yelled at Maan, "Aap apne ko kya samjhate hain, Delhi ke betaaj badshah yaa koi superman? Mr. Chadda aapko dhamaki de kar chale gaye aur aap yahaan aise hi beithe hain. Aap ke liye bhalhe hi aap ki zindaagi zaruri naa ho magar aap ke chahnewalon ke liye bahut zaruri hai! Samjhe aap!" (What do you think of yourself King of Delhi or a Superman? Mr. Chadda threatened you and you are relaxed. For you your life may not hold any meaning but for your loved ones it does. Understood!)
"Gina you speak Hindi?" Armaan who had just come out of the washroom asked surprised.
Hearing Armaan's voice, Gina's trance broke and she realised that in her emotions, she has again blown her cover! "Hai Bhagwaan!" (Oh God!) Gina gasped covering her face with her hands and fled from the Chairman's room, luckily everyone had gone for lunch so no one noticed her stressed features.
Armaan was stunned to see Maan smiling and giving a cheeky victory smile. "Maan yaar what is going on? First you make me Head of Board of Directors and now your and Gina's relationship! Maan I want to know whats going on?"
"Armaan its a long story. Maybe after hearing it you may not want to continue our friendship. I'm a man who no one likes including my parents!" Desolate Maan said making Armaan stunned. Maan started narrating his life story. Geet's coming and living with his family at the age of 6yrs.; his dislike for Geet; his love for Sameera; Maan and Geet's marriage; His being duped by Sameera; Geet's death; Maan's meeting Captain Swarnanjali Singh; Anjali's disappearance ; Anjali's death and now Gina's presence.
"You think Gina is Captain Swarnanjali Singh?"
"Initially I was in two minds but after her angry speech today, I'm most certain that she is MY SWEETHEART ANJALI!"
"But Maan she is in love with her husband or her childhood love!"
"I know but nothing can now stop me from marrying her. I LOVE ANJALI!"
"I have an idea. Lets throw a party for inaugration of new Khurana Constructions' Branch. In the party you can propose to her."
"Armaan how can you be so selfless you also love Anjali, I mean Gina?"
"Maan after meeting Riddhima I realised what is true love. What I felt for Gina was just a crush or attraction."
Meanwhile after the incident in Chairman's cabin, Gina decided to stay away from Maan much to Maan's frustration. Unless other staff members were present she would not enter Maan's room. Initially Meera, Adi and Sameer felt that as she is a novice so she needs guidance but later everyone assumed that as Maan has infamous temper, Gina is scared of him. Gina also did not bother correcting it.
