Digging his own grave...Mandaar gave a new definition to this phrase today!! He had the temerity, the arrogance to enter Raghav's den and the fool had the audacity to ask him to do his bidding!!
Understood that Mandar has psychological issues, to say the least, but even a brain as unstable as his got the message lound n clear..If you be the Devil, then I be your Master!!
In his defense, (no I would never defend him but I am Raghav's pankhi, have to give him some rope to hang himself) he has never met the real Raghav Rao!! He has never heard him roar, the deep throated roar, that strikes fear in the hearts of one and all!! He never faced his wrath..that anger that can make you run for your life!! He hasn't seen Raghav in his purest form..evil incarnate..the one that hypnotises his enemies with sheer terror!!
And he got a taste of it today!! Just a glimpse, not the sheer force. Yeh toh trailer bhi nahin tha, as some like to say picture abhi baaki hai mere dost !! Raghav put him in his place, beautifully, he is a past master at that!! Swiftly and ruthlessly reminded him of his power, and Mandaar's helplessness.
Yes, he is the Raghav Rao and no, none can have access to him unless he grants it. But of course, royalty never disppoints, so he asks Mandaar to wait for him in his study. Raghav's body language always says it all, and this time it said more than any words could convey. Feet on his desk, body stance lazy, eyes hooded with distaste, simply and effectively says you are not worth my time!! Tum toh mere jooton ke laayak bhi nahin ho!! So say what you have to say, waste a couple of my minutes and I will brush you off, like an inconsequential bug!! Mandaar..haha..asks him to take his feet down and ends up being taken down a peg or two. And Mandaar, the fool that he has always been, blurts out whatever he had to say. Hats off to Raghav's restraint that he didn't kill the guy then and there. And of course Raghav is enjoying the thrill of the kill again!! The predator is back!! He is baying for the psycho's blood coz all that stood between him and his prey is all gone.
And then the devil sees the glimpse of his master, the one who will always be in charge, the one who yields the power, the one who always rules and the one the world bows down to. The chilling gaze, the stone hewn face, the deep menacing tone and the towering presence on one hand and the helpless, cowardly, cringing form on the other says it all....Run while you can, hide if you can, but hunt you I will !!
