Niira Radia: Hi Prabhu
Prabhu Chawla: Yaa tell me now
Niira Radia: Nahii nothing, I was just wanting to understand things from you. You always have a very good perspective.
Prabhu Chawla: On What?
Niira Radia: On everything bhai, ha ha ha ha. Generally you have a good perspective of everything. Trying to understand what is your view on this great historic judgment above the national interest.
Prabhu Chawla: You see when the brothers are involved, the nation also gets involved, naa?
Niira Radia: Yaa, but probably not a good thing naa. Not good for the nation.
Prabhu Chawla: Not good for the nation, but the brothers don’t talk to each other. There is nobody who can force them to talk also naa?
Niira Radia: Wo to ho gayii naa Prabhu tum bhii jaante ho
Prabhu Chawla: Maine koshiosh kii thi., nahii huaa. maine kahaa ho jayegaa
Niira Radia: Nahii. Abhii nahii. I was speaking to him even recently, I spoke to him this morning, the question of ..
Prabhu Chawla: (interrupts) is he back from wherever he had gone, Mukesh?
Niira Radia: He is very much here, he has been here the whole week.
Prabhu Chawla: He was abroad last week I think.
Niira Radia: No no no.
Prabhu Chawla: Anyway, somebody told me that he is abroad.
Niira Radia: NONONO. He has been here the whole week. He is not due to travel till next week.
Prabhu Chawla: because maine to. Sometimes he responds. Abhii I have stopped talking to him, calling him...
Niira Radia: No. He’s been here the whole week. I just spoke to him this morning also. He is very much here. He is not supposed to go anywhere till next week.
Prabhu Chawla: Nahii. Maine to usko... somebody… I didn’t… Usko maine 15-20 din pahle message bhejaa thaa. The he responded. Then I asked again. Then he never responded. Maine usko message nahii bhejaa phir. Because the whole judgement was coming, I wanted to forewarn you.
Niira Radia: Kyaa judgment uske khilaaf aa rahaa hai?
Prabhu Chawla: Haan, Arrogant hai naa. uske saath kyaa kare? Uske arrogance, dono bhaaiyyon kaa samajh bhi nahi aatii mero ko
Niira Radia: Prabhu tell me one thing. Judgement is fixed, right?
Prabhu Chawla: Dekho in this country, dono side mein fix karne kii capacity hain. Par baRaa bhaai hain naa.. Chhotaa bhaai mobile jyaada hai. Paise kam kharach kartaa hai, kanjoos hai sabse jyaadaa. But he is more mobile than the elder brother. Elder brother doesn’t want to go beyond what Dhirubhai left behind with him. Men or people, whatever. I think… You are getting what I am telling?
Niira Radia: I understand.
Prabhu Chawla: He is totally depending on the people who Dhirubhai created. They were relevant at that point of time. Now they are not relevant. Anilbhai has done… has developed new sources, new contacts , new way of thinking. That can be possibility ki Mukesh ko apnaa… ek uskii wife bhi thoRaa dictate jyaadaa karti hai. Anil kii wife nahii kartii hai. The way things are moving, Mukesh poor fellow is not able to get the right feedback because of insulation from various other sources. And I know what he is doing on the Supreme Court front. Various things. Which is not the way to go about.
Niira Radia: Hmm.
Prabhu Chawla: What he doing it is known to the rest of the world. Which is not good. Usko thoRaa… If he has to…. because everything is fixed now these days.
Niira Radia: Ab Supreme Court mein reverse ho gayaa, then he is finished for ever, yaar! If he doesn’t get a favourable response from Supreme Court, then he is finished, naa?
Niira Radia: But Prabhu ek baat bataauuN?
Prabhu Chawla: HaaN?
Niira Radia: Abhi tak Supreme Court kaa, between you and me, kuchh finalise huaa nahin?
Prabhu Chawla: Finalise kaa matlab kya hai? Bhai Murli Deora bhii jaayega court mein. Prime Minister is also putting pressure on Murli Deoa to settle it. Because ultimately it is national loss naa, as you put it. Itnaa mehanga ho raha hain fuel, ab 90 dollars ho jayegaa 2-3 mahiine meiN, if you are not able to take out gas from your own sources, then there is a problem, naa. Country should not bloody suffer because of these two brothers.
Niira Radia: That’s right. Which is what Mukesh has told Anil very clearly. That’s right. Which what Mukesh has told his brother very clearly. What is the issue? Anil …usne apne gas ke liye kabhii manaa nahin kiya. Usne kaha tera 28 mm sidhi ban tha hai. Agar NTPC 12 nahiiN letaa to teraa wo bhii ban taa hai. Yeh 2.34 who government ki price hai, mein us mein decide nahin karta huun as an operator. Uska point limited woh hai. I don’t know, aapne MoU dekha? I don’t know whether you have seen it, but I will show it to you. Un mein aisa kuchh likhaa nahiiN hain.
