The homework didn't get done and she knew it. He had to acknowledge that she was right.

Did he really think she makes up rules just to annoy Dhru? That was an unfair statement. She does seem to take out her frustration by being cold with Dhru, but she knows what she needs to do. Now he knows.
Atty wants her to commit and he is not getting that so easily. Not verbally. He can read her though.
The odds
He was summoned first day of return to work at the Bank's India Head’s office to talk about why he did not accept a follow up appointment with the Savarkars
His new boss, the India Head now Sharan Mhatre was furious he was not consulted in such a sensitive political matter
“I am not about to bring every politician’s stooge over to you so you can tell me how I need to deal with them”
“I don’t like where this is going”
“Do you want me to quit?” Aatreya was mad
“No I DON’T want you to quit. This is not about you”
“This IS about me” “I declined a second F2F and now I am standing in your office”
“Do you know who the guys is?”
“What do we do Sharan? Just look the other way, staple a bunch of blank printer paper together and put it through the approval process and grant the funding, we can always write it off as bad debt 10 years from now?”
“trust me I am more pissed than you are” Sharan paced his grand office
“I am not even sure why we are both wasting time”
“Well I am supposed to meet with the CM, it’s a Vittiya Sansthan Sammaan Samaroh (Banker Appreciation Day) or something, the luncheon is from 11 to 4, basically to make sure we doe everything powerful people want us to do”
“Umm?”
“I don’t want to meet the guy that sent this couple over and have to say sorry POLICY”
“What else do you want to say”
“Let me look at it?” “Perhaps”
“Then please do meet with them, the India Head’s time is obviously not that valuable it seems like” Aatreya mocked
“You are loving this aren’t you?”
“Nah… just mocking for the sake of it”
“WHO are these people? Is he related to a politician?”
“Nope, his wife used to be married to a man who was well connected in interior Maharashtra among orange grove owners, and sugarcane farmers”
“Oh? Who?”
“sagar Ghatge”
“Nope doesn’t ring a bell” sharan looked confused
“Who can knock some sense into them?”
“I don’t think that’s going to work”
“Why? No family? Friends? Kids”
“Political clout trumps everything”
“I just don’t want to go to the board and tell them I am writing off Rs100 crores next year because I am willfully stupid”
“then do not meet them” “I wont”
“I want you to” Sharan squirmed
“And say what?”
“Just re-look at his finances, I am going to promise the CM we are planning to do that”
“U are kidding”
“No I am not”
“there is nothingt o look at except a badly made website”
“Umm.. what did he do the last 30 years of his life the guys 58?”
“I DON’T know” Aatreya was irritated
“Does she come from money? I am told she is expecting a big windfall”
“Ha”
“Help me out here” Sharan begged
“One last meeting, but if you insist on more U will have my resignation”
Aatreya let himself out
Of all the banks in Mumbai of all the people in the world, Mrunalini’s mother and her crook husband had walked into his office
Mrunalini has never actually got back at her mother. Will she do so if she knows her mother is causing problem even for Atty now?
I hope so.
Atty, share with Mrunalini before anyone else does. She would like to hear from you than anyone else.
Savarkars are using every connection to get a bad loan written for them. Why should the bank do it?
Atty will not sign his name on the loan. Will he be forced into resigning? It could come to that.
Falguni seems to be presenting the picture that she will get money out of Sagar. She will go after Mru's share even.
The trouble will not go away so easily. Atty will have to tell Mru whats going on. It will blow up later.
