What do you know about me? Why did you make a video of me and Nandini together to blackmail her?" Manik asked, trying to understand Harshad's actions.
"I don't know much about you, I just know that you and Nandini belong to the same colony. It would be easy to make anyone believe that you two were having an affair. If we blackmailed her with that, she wouldn't open her mouth in front of the police. It was just a trick and that girl fell for it," Harshad explained his tactic.
Is this what Karan ordered you to do?" Manik asked, trying to connect the dots.
No, he commits the crimes, we just remove the evidence by blackmailing people. I don't even know what kind of crimes he does. He has many people like me who do these kinds of jobs," Harshad replied.
Manik listened carefully to everything Harshad had to say
Harshad again "He has a set of criminals who work for him, like people who do robberies, thefts, murders, and another set of people who gather personal and financial information, and another set like me who blackmail people to remove evidence,"" Harshad explained.
Manik was shocked at the extent of Karan's criminal operations.
These three sets of people who work for him get a salary every month, and the thing is that nobody comes face to face with each other. They haven't even met each other, Karan Varma is one of the top businessmen in our country, but nobody knows about his dark side" Harshad added
Manik asked, "Why do you want to kill Mukti when you were working for him?"
Harshad replied, "Manik, I didn't want this kind of job. I am the only son in my family, I have two younger sisters who are suffering from cancer. My mom is everything to me. I wanted to take care of my mom and sisters. But when one of them died, I decided to quit the job. Maybe the bad karma affected me and killed my sister. That's why I wanted to resign. But somehow, Karan came to know about this and he killed another sisters. His henchmen warned me not to file a complaint, they said that they would kill my mother if I went against them. He made sure that I couldn't get a job anywhere. I am very helpless seeing my family suffer. That's why I wanted to show how much pain it would cause if someone loses their family. That's why I wanted to kill Mukti.
"Harshad, as much as you may want to seek revenge for the loss of your sisters, it is important to consider the consequences of your actions. If you were to kill Mukti, you would become a criminal murderer, and would likely face imprisonment. However, it is not only your own well-being that should be considered, but also that of your mother. Who will look after her if you are in jail? It is important to consider the impact of your actions not only on yourself, but also on those who depend on you."
"Killing someone is not the solution, you should come out of this web. Even I should. Be patient, going against Karan Varma is not easy, " Manik said, trying to convince him.
Harshad didn't say anything, as he knew that Manik was right. Karan Varma is a dangerous masked man and it's not easy to escape from him. He remembered his mother, and the thought made him even more determined to find a solution that wouldn't involve violence.
"If you're with me, we can figure out what to do together. But somewhere deep down, Manik still wonders if he can trust Harshad or not."
Okay, I agree to shake hands with you" Harshad said, showing his willingness to work together with Manik and overcome the problems they are facing together.
"But I have one condition," Manik said, indicating that he has a specific requirement that needs to be met before they can proceed with their plan.
Harshad looked at Manik with a questioning look, "What do you mean, what is the condition?
Manik thought for a moment, then spoke to Harshad in a serious tone, "Not now, I'll tell you when the time comes. But for now, if you want me to give you a ride home, I'll drop you off at your home."
Harshad agreed to Manik's offer of a ride home, nodding his head in affirmation.
★★★
Nandini scolded herself for the many lies she had told Manik's parents and sister, in order to convince them to agree to lend her the money that Manik had given her. She realized that she didn't even know the basics of the business, let alone the spelling of its name. She was worried about what Manik thought of this situation, and pleaded to Aiyyapa for guidance and forgiveness for her actions.
Feeling even more worried and guilty, Nandini decided to phone Manik to confess what she had done, but he didn't answer her call. This further increased her anxiety and uncertainty about how Manik would react to her actions.
Feeling hopeless, Nandini gave up on trying to reach Manik, turned off the lights and laid on her bed to sleep. She couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt and the uncertainty of how Manik would react to her deception. She tossed and turned, unable to find peace in her mind.
★★★
Manik was driving his car down a small, rundown street, as Harshad directed him to his home. Following Harshad's instructions, Manik navigated the unfamiliar area, taking note of the boarded-up buildings and the general sense of neglect that seemed to permeate the neighborhood. Despite the uncomfortable atmosphere, Manik focused on following Harshad's directions and eventually pulled up in front of a small, rundown house. Harshad thanked Manik for the ride and got out of the car, heading inside. As Harshad was about to go, Manik asked "Harshad, can I see your mom?" Harshad hesitated for a moment before agreeing and led Manik inside to meet his mother.
Manik followed Harshad inside and was greeted by Harshad's mother, who appeared to be lean and weak. She was sitting in front of two photographs of her daughters that were hanging on the wall. The room was small and unkempt, it seemed as if it hadn't been cleaned in some time. Manik felt a sense of sadness and empathy seeing Harshad's mother in this condition, and the small and poor conditions of the room. He greeted her politely and had a short conversation with her. He could sense the struggle and hardship that she and Harshad have been going through,
he came to the conclusion that Harshad had not lied about his family's struggles and financial difficulties. He realized that Harshad had been truthful about his situation.After a casual talk with Harshad's mother, Manik thanked her for her time and left the home. He felt a mix of emotions as he walked back to his car. He was sad to see the difficult living conditions of Harshad's family, but also grateful for the opportunity to understand the truth about Harshad's situation. He got into his car and started the engine and left the place.
