Jaideep was on a mission to Ahmedabad. He had been assigned a task to accompany a maid from Ahmedabad to Allahabad. From there she had to go to China where Jaideep's sister was residing. Jaideep was engaged to Vimmi who stayed in Ahmedabad so he stayed at her place. The plan was that he will meet the maid at the railway station, they would board the train together for Allahabad. Jaideep was always cool while his father-in-law Bhavani was the complete opposite. Jaideep was in no hurry to leave for the railway station. Bhavani quickly called a auto rickshaw for his to be son-in-law thinking that would help speed up things. Jaideep announced he wanted to visit the loo. When he emerged a good fifteen minutes later Bhavani was almost convinced he would miss the train. Bhavani took Jaideep's bag and rushed to the waiting autorickshaw. The auto went as fast as possible. Once it reached the station Bhavani and Jaideep hurried to the platform. As they reached the platform the train started leaving the station. Bhavani barely got Jaideep to board the last compartment in the train. Fretting and fuming Bhavani came back home wondering what happened. Was Jaideep able to take the maid to Allahabad? What answer will he give if asked as to why jaideep could not? Next day they got a call from Allahabad, Jaideep was able to take the maid to Allahabad. How did this miracle happen? After Jaideep got on to the last compartment the train halted. He got down and proceeded to his reserved seat. In the mean time the maid not seeing him was returning back met him on the way. they both proceeded to the reserved compartment and reached Allahabad safely.
