ChandraMukhi -- Reloaded ( Part VI )

PART - VI - NAYANTARA FIGHTS AND THEN LOVES RAJINI

(Few months later)

[Location : LMRVSoft Office]


Business at LMRVSoft had been smooth and steady. With the expertise of Rajini and the management skills of Prabhu combined with diligence of Jyothika, the company was doing enormously well. Also the recruitment had yielded some best talents for the company. Within few months after resuming its operations, LMRVSoft earned a good reputation as service oriented company. Owing to Rajini's efforts, the US Software giant MilliSoft certified LMRVSoft as its most valuable partner and made LMRVSoft as the official Testing center for all of their software products that were outsourced to the Indian vendors.


Watchman Vijayakumar's daughter Nayantara was made the receptionist for the company. Even though she did not like them, as they occupied this building much against her father's wishes, she took the job, since she had no other job.


Vijayakumar once arranged for a special lunch for Rajini, Prabhu and Jyo at his home. Nayantara was assigned the task of getting the menu for the same.. When she inquired them about their food preferences, Jyothika and Rajini chose vegetarian, while Prabhu who had a liking for variety in foods replied


"Nirpathuve, Nadappathuve, Parappathuve neengalellam thinner thaane, en veetin dinner thaane, "

implying he would eat any kind of living being. Nayantara realized that Prabhu could turn out to be a threat to animal kingdom in Siruseri, and so immediately chased away all the birds and animals that were roaming in the nearby vicinity,

(Song is adapted from "Kokkku para para from ChandraMukhi)

" Kokku para para (Translation : Crane, fly fly)

Kozhi para para (Translation : Hen, fly fly)

Mynah para para (Translation : cuckoo, fly fly)

Mayilae Para.. (Translation : Peacock, fly fly)"


Her hatred for them increased but nevertheless she decided to maintain silence and was doing her work sincerely.

One day Morning, Rajini was going through the company's Bulletin Board hosted on their Intranet for a technical doubt. Since he could not find any help in any of the forums, he was browsing through other forums. He was surprised to see all the forums except the Sports forum, inactive. There was a huge discussion going on in the Sports forum as to whether Sachin or Lara was the best ever player. Most of the postings were from Nayantara and she was posting all technical, statistical and personal failures of Sachin in comparison with Lara. Rajini got very much irritated over whatever that was going on, and he asked the moderator to delete all the posts immediately in the Sports forum and disallow any further activity there.


After some time, a visibly angered Nayantara came to Rajini's room.


Rajini ( coolly) : Hey ten thara

Nayan (angrily) : Nayanthara....

Rajini : yeah yeah nayanthara... watz the matter

Nayan : Why did you block access to Sports forum

Rajini : Ha ha ha, you are supposed to be a receptionist and not a sports columnist.

Nayan : What do u know about cricket or any other sports? You know only about coding, networking blah blah. You know I had been a cricket captain in my college women's team.


Rajini : Haan….


Nayan (Embarassed ) : You can only block acc...acccess to the sports forum...(stutters) but..but..you cant block my spo..spo...sports knowledge.........


Saying this Nayanthara walks away angrily from the room. After moments of silence, Rajini started singing at her ( no no not athinthom song , he is a national hero boss :), so he sang in a hindi tune :) ).

[ Tune : Yeh Tara woh Tara from Swades]

Yeh Tara Woh tara, Nayanthara,

Cricket se, dekho, mein brian lara

Yeh tara woh tara Nayanthara

Cricket se, dekho, mein brian lara



Woh young days le,

simply superb i played!!

have to see my batting skills u tara.........


Batting, bowling… all I do… and win too, u know that? tharaa tharaa…….


Everybody in the office joined the dance too… Nayantara came to know that Super star had been a good cricketer and also one whom John Wright and Greg Chappell consulted for some technical methods in batting and fielding setup. She felt bad about mistaking Rajini and also realized in Tamil films no one can be and is allowed to be more talented than the hero. Hence as per Tamil cinema Grammar, Nayantara immediately fell in love with Rajini.


Rajini : hahaha, Remember, a bulletin board shud not be used as a bullet board to hurt others' feelings and thatz precisely why we blocked the access. I hope you would have understood. Go ahead, the access would return.

[A happy Nayantara returned to her cabin]
