In between all the awkward stares and angry glares, she was walking inside the office putting a polite smile on her face, trying to not to get affect by all those angry glares by her junior officers. she just got a transfer in Mumbai's 'Special Bureo of Investigation' as head investigative officer to handle a very sensitive rape case, happened a month ago. she was trying to figure out the reason for all the hatred and ignorance she was getting on her first day of work. she entered inside her cabin and took a glance at her backside and found all her juniors, still glaring at her as if they are going to eat her alive. she turned her back and walked to her seat.

Voice - Welcome to Mumbai, Madam!

She shifted her gaze in the direction of the voice and saw a middle aged man, standing in front of her, smiling.

Man - commissioner sahab ne mujhe aapke baare mai bataya tha…he moved forward and stretched his hand towards her….Inspector Rajesh Pawar….he smiled at her

Girl (shaking hand) - Purvi Sarkaar…she was curious about the behaviour of other officers towards her and thought to ask him….Pawar! ye bahar sab log mujhe aise kyu dekh rahe the jaise mai koi criminal hu?

Pawar - vo madam, aapko jo case handover hua hai vo case 'Adhikaari' sir ke under tha, aur yaha par sab log unnse bahut pyaar karte hai, bahut izzat karte hai unki to bass isliye un logo ki najar mai aap villain ban gai hai yaha aane se pehle hi.

'Adhikaari' the name sounds very familiar to her. she shook her head to wipe the thoughts away.

Purvi (confused) - mai kuch samjhi nahi?

Pawar (explaining) - suru se lekar iss case ko 'Adhikaari' sir ne hi handle kiya hai. apne din raat laga diye unhone iss case ko solve karne ke liye aur ab achanak se ye case unnse chinkar aapko de diya gaya.…he gives her a 'you know what I mean' look

Purvi (understanding) - I see! anyway, mujhe 'Kalyani Mill' rape case ki file 10 minute ke andar mere table par chahiye.

Pawar (nodding) - yes madam…..he left the cabin to get the files

Purvi started reading the files which were kept on her desk, waiting for Pawar to come back with the case file. finally after nearly half an hour, Pawar entered inside her cabin, but she was surprised to see no file in his hand. she raised her eyebrow looking at him.

Pawar (explaining) - I am sorry madam! vo case file 'Adhikaari' sir ke paas hai. mene bahut koshish ki lekin unhone mujhe vo file dene se mana kar diya.

Purvi (standing up, angry) - file dene se mana kar diya ka kya matlab hai? koi majak chal raha hai yaha par?

Pawar (looking down) - Sorry, madam!

Purvi (angrily) - kaha milenge tumhare ye 'Adhikaari' sir?

Pawar - abhi to vo niche cafeteria mai lunch kar rahe hai..…vo….before he could complete her sentence, she storm out of the cabin in anger, heading towards the cafeteria

as soon as Purvi reached the cafeteria, she saw a man was standing on the table, doing Shahrukh Khan's famous arms open pose from DDLJ, his face was not visible to her and he was gathered by all his juniors who were clapping for him in enjoyment. He must be the officer 'Adhikaari' she thought and started walking towards him.

Purvi freezed at her place, shocked, as soon as she saw his face. He was a well built handsome man, nearly of her age. He was wearing a black colour shirt and a pair of Blue Jeans. she looked at him to his head to toe and was hell shocked to see him infront of her. she couldn't believe her eyes for a moment.

"Bade Bade Desho Mai, Aisi Choti Choti Baate Hoti Rehti Hai, Senorita" the famous DDLJ dialogue echoed inside her ears in a familiar male voice

she was staring at him blankly standing at her place like a statue. He was busy in entertaining his juniors while they all were having lunch. her heart felt heavy and her eyes brim with tears. she closed her eyes and some drop of tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Pushpa! I hate tears" the sentence echoed inside her ears in the same familiar voice

she smiled with tears and immediately wiped them away. she started walking towards him, while all the memories started coming back to her like waves in the ocean. she was feeling overwhelmed.

Purvi (clearing her throat) - excuse me?

The man looked at her hearing her voice. Purvi saw his facial expressions changing, from disbelief to shock to anger and hatred. she felt a pang in her heart seeing so much hatred for her in his eyes, she looked around and saw all other officers staring at her. she somehow managed to composed herself.

Purvi (professionally) - Mr. Adhikaari! mujhe 'Kalyani Mill Rape' case ki file chahiye.

Adhikaari (observing her to her head to toe) - mujhe to laga tha ki sirf naam jaana pehchana hai, lekin yaha to chehra bhi bahut jaana pehchana lag raha hai….he stretched his hand towards her…Sachin Adhikaari!

Purvi (shaking hand) - Purvi Sarkaar!

Sachin (smirk) - naam mai hi fraud…he taunts her

everyone started giggling at Sachin's comment. Purvi shot a deadly glare to all of them and they kept quiet.

Purvi (trying to control anger) - Mr. Adhikaari! mujhe vo case file abhi ke abhi chahiye. acha hoga ki aap bina time waste kare mujhe vo file handover kar de.

Sachin (seating on the chair) - itni bhi kya jaldi hai 'Miss Sarkaar' mil jaayegi aapko vo case file. vaise dusro se kuch chinne ki purani aadat aapki abhi tak gai nahi hai….he taunts her again and gives her a meaningful look….aapke saath kaam karne mai bada maja aayega! kuch purane hisab bhi karne baaki hai.

Purvi - Behave 'Mr. Adhikaari' hum apni personal aur professional life ko mix naa kare to acha hoga.

Sachin (getting up) - chaliye thik hai! aap bhi kya yaad rakhengi.

Purvi (sighed) - file?

Sachin - aap jaaiye, mai kisi ke haath file bhijwa deta hu.

Purvi nods her head in yes and started walking towards her cabin, taking a last glance at Sachin.
