INTO THE PAST WITH PAIN..LXIX
Dr K Prabhakar Rao
(Gandhi is seen sitting in a park in heavens and singing Ramdhun clapping hands. A lean and famished man is seen approaching him. He is clad in full European suit and sporting Hollywood hat. He has pipe in his mouth. He is Jinnah the father of Pakistan)
Jinnah. Hello. Adab, Mr Gandhi
Gandhi. Salam wallekum Jinnah bhai. How are you?
Jinnah. Walekum salaam, Fine. I have not seen you since long.
Bapu. It is nice you have come. Please sit down ( shows a place on the bench).
( Jinnah sits down)
Jinnah. Mr Gandhi, I heard there is lot of talk about me in India of late.
Gandhi. I also heard. Patel knows it better.
( In the mean time, Patel arrives strolling and he sees Jinnah and Gandhi and he tries to go away)
Gandhi. Hello Patel. Please come here. Good evening. How are you?
Patel. I am fine.
