“Oh! Is your 10th and 12th mark still the issue?”
“Yeah. Everywhere I go, it is an issue. I am not sure what to do.”
“What are you planning to do next?”
“I think I will get married. I have completed engineering in Sathyabama. So I think I will get atleast 8 lakhs…”
“Oh!”
“Yeah! I can start a business with that money…”

“I think my skull is fractured. We need to get to a hospital now!”

“I hope you will not be receiving any dowry.”
“It is a custom da. I don’t think I want to interfere with customs and traditions…”
“So I guess you are planning to make a brother suffer, just as you have now sacrificed your dream and career to pay off the debt incurred from your sister’s marriage…”
“Ah! Hmm… Er… Hmmm…”
