Tehelka: What I am wondering is that the in-laws would certainly request a re-test. And then, they will get a clean-chit in the second or third examination.

Gupta: For this you will have to meet some insiders. Just give me an indication and we’ll get a favourable report.

Tehelka: You mean by bribing some of the insiders?

Gupta: Yes. By bribing the insiders. But that comes later.

Tehelka: When the court orders a re-examination, does the director come to know you had made the certificate?

Gupta: No. This is independent; the director doesn’t interfere in this.

Tehelka: Dr saab, tell me, when you are called to the court to testify, you will not be charging again. Right?

Gupta: I will. I will charge only if I am called to the court otherwise I won’t.

Tehelka: You said you have handled 10 such cases. Have they all got their divorces?

Gupta: Haan. sab gaye hain. Now give me the money and remember that it will not be returned under any circumstances.

Tehelka: OK, please make the certificate. (Gupta starts writing)

Tehelka: What’s this doctor saab…diagnosis of?

Gupta: That’s a mental disorder. What’s your wife’s age?

Tehelka: Twenty-five. Doctor saab, do I have to give Manohar anything?

Gupta: Give it to me. He’ll ask you for too much or he might talk about it in the hospital. That’s dangerous you know.

Gupta: What date should I put?

Tehelka: Today’s.

Gupta: You are a child. I have to say she was under my observation for two months.

Tehelka: Do you also keep a copy?

Gupta: Yes, I keep a record.

Tehelka: (Handing over the money). Lakshmi leejiye aap. First count the money.

Gupta: Fine. No no, this is less. We had discussed ten thousand. This is less.

Tehelka: Count it again

Gupta: It is less. This is nine. Give me another thousand.

Tehelka: Won’t this do? What about some concession?

Gupta: Solid kaam karao. Whenever you get a chance, hear me in court, testifying.
