No offence to any one, human or animal. This is a fun post.
The background is a scene after Sai shifts to Nagpur with Savi. Sets up a roaring practice. One fine day, Vinu comes to know that Savi’s birthday falls on a particular day and year, and It dawns on our IPS officer that Savi could be his own daughter (Mandbudhhi). Also some common sense is drilled into him by Sunny and Harini…He decides to call Sai with an intention to find out.
How does Sai answer?

"Dr Sai Joshi's clinic...“
Hello…kya main…Savi ki aai se baat kar sakta houn?”
“Savi ki aai?”
“I meant Dr Sai Joshi”
“Ohhh I see…Wo abhi busy hain. Patient hain. Aap ka naam bataiye. Appointment chahiye tha kya?”
Virat is taken aback at the cold voice of the receptionist.
“Nahi…wo haan. Actually appointment hi chahiye tha..”
“Agale mahine tak koi slot free nahi hain. Aap chahe to aapko phone appointment ho sakti hain….”
Virat does a facepalm. Sai itni successful kabse ho gayi? Patients ka waiting line? The receptionist gets irritated by his silence.
“Oye…so gaya kya..tele appointment chahiye to jaldi bol. Uska bhi waiting hain…”
“Ok, Ok, Ok…earliest possible kaunsa mil sakta hain?”
“Aaj raat 11.30 ka slot free hain. Kya naam likhoon?”
“Virat Chavan!”
“Aap purane patient hain kya? Ya phir naye?”
“Usse kya farq padta hain? Bas baat karwa dijiye”
“Ok, Ok…” The receptionist gave up. “Raat 11.30 ko Ma’am sebaat kijiye. Issi number pe. Aapke pass dus minute hain..”
Dus minute? How could he ask the most vital question of his life in those ten minutes?
“Hello…hello…Ma’am…”a click from the other end was the answer.
Ok, now for the allotted time slot. He disconnected the line.
At the given time, he called the number.
“Hello…Dr Sai Joshi?”
“Yes speaking…your name?”
“Virat Chavan!”
“Age?”
“How does that matter? I am not a patient!”
“but this call was booked for a patient. Ok, if you are not a patient, why did you call me? Are you trying to sell an insurance policy?
“No..See, Sai, I just wanted to know..”
She appeared not to have heard him.
“Ok, I am not interested any insurance policy. Also not in any personal loan!”
“Sai…”
“No credit card either. No, if you are done with, and you are not a patient, can I disconnect?”
“SAI”! Virat was all about to tear his hair out. Why couldn’t she give him a minute? “NO. I AM NOT GOING TO SELL YOU ANYTHING. BUT I WANTED SOME INFORMATION!”
She cooled down at that.
“OK, I have five minutes. Shoot!”
Virat took a deep breath.
“I wanted to know about Savi. How was she…conceived? Who is her father?”
Sai blinked for a minute before answering. “I think I have answered that question. Earlier. As to how a baby is conceived, there is only one way and you know that. If you don’t, ask a Gr 12 Biology student. And the query about her father, let me clarify once and for all!”
Virat could feel his pulse galloping in his head. “Yes, please. I am waiting!”
“Savi was conceived from my egg and a donated sperm. And implanted in Usha Maushi’s womb, with her consent. In fact I delivered her!”
The world spun before his eyes. “And who is the donor?”
“Does it matter?”
“Sai please…”
“I was directed to a NGO. They showed me a couple of profiles. The problem was the availability of sperm as and when required. Nothing worked out for a couple of months, they used to go limp easily. There was enough laundry to be done, bedsheets to be washed and cleaned..not to say about the clothing. The NGO was about to give up when their dhobi came up with a solution…”
“What..the dhobhi?” Virat couldn’t believe his ears.
“No…he donated his donkey!”
