Daddy! Daddy did you bring the money? “What money my little daughter?” “The two hundred and eight crores for which they have put me in jail for?” “Why do you need that money my daughter?” “There is no air-conditioner in the jail daddy!” “No AC?” “No daddy, and I need money for soap!” “You are my daughter and they are not giving you a bar of soap?” “No daddy, I have to pay for it, and daddy..”Yes my daughter?”
“The mattress has no foam!” “No foam?” “No daddy it is a cotton mattress!” “How dare they give a cotton mattress to my daughter?” “That is why I need all that money daddy!” “To buy a cotton mattress?” “Yes daddy!” “And soap!” “Oh yes and soap!” “And to install an AC!” “Yes, yes, you need money to install an AC!”
“And daddy, next time bring the plumber!” “I have brought you home made sweets, made by your own mother’s loving hands!” “No daddy I need a plumber!”
“Why does my favourite daughter want a plumber?” “Because daddy they have only Indian style toilets in the jail! I want a western one installed!” “No daughter of mine will sit in an Indian style toilet!
How dare they do this to my family, making them sit on Indian style toilets? What do they think we are?” “Don’t shout daddy!” “I am very angry, very, very angry!” “So you do understand, don’t you daddy?” “Of course I do, that is why I came to se my favourite daughter in Jail!” “No, no daddy, not that.”
“Then what my favourite daughter?” “You understand why I need that two hundred and eight crores, don’t you? Daddy! Daddy! Why are you going away? Daddy where are you going?” “To see Raja!” “Why?”
“To ask him what he wants me to buy him in jail with his one hundred and sixty thousand crores..!”
