Part -1
It was a silent evening,the waves are calm and serene.Everything can clearly seen from the sitout which was in the middle of the lawn ,covered with palm leaves.Inside the guest house ,there were things messed up all over the room.Outside the house a tall figure was standing,he was facing towards
the sea,his hands were clutched to the railings,his eyes were closed and one of his hands was tightly clenched.He could hear the sound of the waves clearly.His head was spinning with the words that were heard in the morning that day "MR.MILIND MISHRA I'm sorry to say, par ye tender sirf SHAH industries ko mil sakti hai". It was the third defeat in a row that year for him and to from SHAH industries.He recently had established his base from Delhi to Mumbai in order to take revenge of INDER SHAH.He was the no-1 bussinessman in the country and Milind's aim is to get him down and strip him of his industries.He thought it was not easy to deal with Inder Shah, a shrewd bussineess person he had ever known.But he had ruined his family and he was going to make him regret for this.
He still remembered his childhood days. He always remembered them.He never made a point to forget it.He slowly opened his eyes,his were red and sore with anger.He knows who was the reason for his anger.He was always obstructing his business. He had put away his enjoyments and pleasure only to take revenge……………………………….
His memories floated back to the past. His father was a successful business.He gave them every they needed before they could ask him. His mother ,his father,his little sister and him were the perfect family picture.But suddenly everything crumbled down.Inder Shah had decieted,double crossed his father in his business.Acted as his best friend and robbed him everythin behind him.His mother could not take this,she fell ill.Milind was 7years when this took place,he asked Inder straightly infront of everyone "uncle aap aise kaise kar sakthe.Baba aappki dost hain na". Inder had insulted more than he could confront them, "Mishraji aapke bete ko tammez nahin shikaya,
Aur usse kahiye "pyar aur ladiyi mein sab kuch zayaz hai", bade hooke kam se kam yeh tho kaam aayega ussko" ,and laughed at him mockingly.They had to go to chawl,his father had to look for a job.Milind had taken up odd and menial jobs to support his family until his father had a job.Meantime his mother had died leaving his father broken by his wife's death.His father also fell ill after his mother's death, he was the sole earner of the family.He did jobs side by side he educated himself and his sister.After his schooling he started business with the knowledge he gained doing the jobs and when he left the college his business was showing its profits.He shifted to Delhi along with family,so his father can be treated well. But unfortunately his father had died.This left them both all alone in the world.But Milind didn't care about it, he cared only about his revenge. He lost everything,he has nothing to care about or lose.He married off his sister at an early age and sent them off to London to take care of his company over there.He did not want to involve her in this, as he feared he may lose her.
He came back from the past.What had happened today was hurting him more than his past.He went inside,made his drink,he looked around and saw the mess he had made.He thought his sister Sukruthi would make a hell of noise when she had seen this.She had recently shifted to India with her family when she heard her brother's behavoiur and the life he was living.He still remembered that day when she arrived. She straightly came to his office from the airport,not minding who was there around , clutched his collar and started screaming…….. "kya samjthe apne appko,aap insan hai ya jaanwaar,khud ko khayal nahi raksakthe par desh bhar aapki companies ko kya khayal karenge.Ek baar kabhi bhi aapke chehera ayine mein deke kya? Devdas ki tarah hai aap",she dragged him out of the office and took him to his house.She did not cooled until he had shaved neatly and trimmed his hair.
She was a big obstruction for him to do anything. He came out of the house and stood in his before place facing the sea. He was heavily drunk after he had lost the tender.He could not go home now as he could not face his sister in this condition.Sukruti would throw him out of his own house now.She kept him pestering him about the marriage.He knows that he can't marry and his aim and life depends on his revenge.He's still alive for taking revenge.For this he want be all alone so this time he not lose it,other side he could not tell all this to his sister.
The breeze was heavy,he turned to go inside.But he saw a girl running behind a kid on the beach,his head was spinning badly that he could not have a clear picture of her. He called his watchman to enquire about the girl. "woh Inder saabji ki……………….",Milind faced him,he could his master's angry bloodshot eyes.He immediately changed the sentence "woh Prachi Shah hai,Inder Shah ki beti,badi pyaari hai saab,aapko……………………"Milind cut him in the middle "mein ne sirf usski naam puucha ,tumhe mujhe Mahabharat ki kahani patane ke liye nahi"saying he shooed him off.His brain started working with some wicked ideas…but he brushed it off thinking it was not the right thing.He could not play with a girl's life………….Whatever he done all this years,he had done with honesty.But he can't fight with Inder Shah with this honesty. He remembered Inder's words "pyar aur ladiyi mein sab kuch zayaz hai",he laughed softly. "ab tho hogi asli jung,seedi tarah se nahi hua tho kya teri raastha apnaunga ,thedhi rassta.ab mujhse bachne ke liye tayaar raho Mr.Inder Shah."
