Agni Poolu - Part 8: Car blast, Raju mother's death, Raju going into coma & her recovery

The newly married couples both return to their houses along with their parents very happily. Parvati gets Viren and Rajyalakshmi protected from bad and evil sights by removing the drishti with turmeric and lime mixed water and throwing it outside. Then taking them inside, she shows the puja room to Rajyalakshmi and tells her that from now onwards it is her duty to light the oil lights before God and see that they never stop glowing.

There at Prithvi's house, Neelaveni mother welcomes the couple by taking drishti and asking them to tell each other's names before entering in. Neelaveni, who otherwise used to be a bit more open and shyless, now feels shy for the first time in her life in uttering her husband name. But Prithvi covers her by telling himself that myself and my wife Neelaveni have come. So they get allowed in. Neelu's mother tells Prithvi not to keep her on his head by supporting her in all matters as it will become difficult for him to put her down as he is already so long. Neelaveni blushes and complains to her father. But all of them smile and enjoy the occasion.

Reception for both the wedded couples is being arranged by Parvati and Swamidass on a very large scale by inviting all famous people of the state along with VIPs from other corners of the whole country also. Prithvi does not like it as Govind master can not attend the function. But Govindji tells Prithvi that he should not miss this opportunity as he can meet many important persons in that function which is essential for his growth as he will get introduced as ruling party Youth wing leader to all those important people.

On the reception day, all people get ready early in the morning in dazzling attires and with good makeups. Viren's grandfather also dyes his hair and moustache with black colour and the maid watches him secretly. After his makeup is over, she also looks into mirror and adjusts herself to look smart. Everybody get ready but the grandfather asks them to wait a bit as he has got some surprise. There at Krishnamurthy's house also everybody get ready and inform Viren that they are starting. In the meantime, the surprise of Viren's grandfather arrives. It is a brand new red car with awesome look and features. All people get surprised on arrival of the car. The grandfather takes the keys from the delivery man and offer them to Viren telling him that it is his surprise gift to him and his wife. Viren and all others feel very happy and admire Veeraswamy's selection.

Previously Parvati had sent Viren's car to be decorated for the reception ceremony. Knowing this information, the goons of Gaurishankar had managed to fit a bomb in that car with the help of the mechanic and decorator of that car as per instructions of Gaurishankar to kill Viren and his wife. That car arrived already with bomb in it for their going to the reception venue. But the surprise gift of Veeraswamy has changed all things.  Viren and Rajyalakshmi loved the gift of their grandfather and liked to go in that car for reception. Viren's parents also go in it as per the tradition. So, Veeraswamy and Raju's mother Indira Devi  had to go in the decorated car of Viren. Viren and others move forward while Veeraswamy gets engaged in giving some instructions to the security guards. After instructing them,  he moves towards the car and Indira Devi begins starting the car by turning the keys on. Immediately the car bursts into flames and she gets fully roasted in the flames. Veeraswamy was opening the car door and he gets thrown away by the blast. His face and neck get burnt and he faints on the road.

The security guard immediately informs Swamidass about the tragedy. All of them get shocked and return back at once. Meanwhile Krishnamurthy also receives the information from Swamidass and they also come back to the blast site. They see that the whole car along with Indira Devi in it is burnt completely. Ambulances arrive within minutes and take the injured Veeraswamy along with the body of Indira Devi to the hospital. The doctors inform that body of Indira has been blown into pieces and all pieces got burnt completely even for identification. Regarding Veeraswamy they say that some operations are needed to save him.

Rajyalakshmi listens to the words of doctor. But she does not believe or understand the situation. She wanted to see her mother and inspite of all others preventing her from going into the operation theatre, she goes inside and witnesses a lump of Indira Devi's body wrapped in white clothes. She identified her body with the help of the saree hanging out from the body. Immediately she shouts loudly and goes into coma. She becomes like a statue with no feelings or emotions and eyes wide open. Veeren and others try to talk to her and make her weep so that her mind may come out from that shock. But she does not respond at all.

Veeraswamy's treatment started and one operation is performed. Doctors say it will take much time for him to regain consciousness and get out from bed as his condition is very critical because of his age factor also.

Rajyalakshmi is taken to the house by Viren with the help of Neelaveni and Prithvi. They stay with Viren to help him in looking after Raju. Both Swamidass' family and Krishnamurthy's family get worried for Rajyalakshmi as she can not live without her mother. They all feel that God has done much injustice to her by taking away her mother's life that too so much horrifically. They are afraid of Veeraswamy's condition also as he is so old and already suffered much in recovering from a bullet shot while saving Swamidass only some days back.    

Rajyalakshmi is referred to a psychiatrist by Viren who advises him to make her realise the facts and come out with her emotions so that her mind and brain can receive things and function normally warning that she will become equal to a dead person if she is not restored within some days. He tells him to achieve this by continuously showing her photos and videos closely associated with her mother and family and by taking her to the places that may remind her of her mother.

Rajyalakshmi does not respond even for taking food or drinks also. Parvati after failing in her effort to make her drink milk, asks Viren to try. Viren goes to her with the glass of milk and makes Raju react positively with his love and makes her sip the milk slowly from the glass. Raju feels and recognises his love by looking into his eyes. So she consumes the whole milk by staring into his love filled eyes. Parvati and Swamidass feel very happy and satisfied that Viren is able to take full care of Rajyalakshmi by acting as a mother also.

Viren shows the marriage album to Raju to bring back her memories and make her realise facts. Raju slightly develops some feelings and movements in her eyes seeing those photos of her mother taking part in all the ceremonies of her marriage. Then she experiences some fear suddenly and drops over Viren's shoulders severely trembling in utter fear. Viren's mother happens to be there and with her help Viren immediately gives a tablet to Raju and she falls asleep. Both Parvati and Viren get agitated at this development and later Viren informs to the Doctor about this. Doctor tells him nothing to worry and continue the treatment to bring her into reality.

The next day, Viren plans to take Rajyalakshmi to her mother's house which was sold out but still empty. Sameer gave the advice to Viren as he wants to get something worst happen to Rajyalakshmi so that Viren may get deserted and uninterested in worldly pleasures. He pretends to be his well wisher and offers to come with them for any help. Viren accepts his offer. Rajyalakshmi recognises the house and recollects all events from her childhood to the time till it is vacated by them before going to Siriguppa. Again she gets fainted unable to bear the thoughts and taken back to Viren's house to give medicines and make her relax.

Meanwhile, Veeraswamy recovers from his serious and critical state mainly due to his deep attachment with Viren and care for Parvati, Swamidass and Rajyalakshmi. All get pleased including the doctors who treated him. They allow Veeraswamy to be taken to home but to be under the supervision of a doctor and nurse at home also. So, the next day, he arrives at home in an ambulance and gets shifted to his room with the help of Prithvi and Viren. The nurse arranges the bed and in that hurry a flower pot gets broken. Rajyalakshmi who was sleeping in her room at that time awakens with the noise and reaches the room and finds Viren's grandfather on the bed with burns and bandages. All try to prevent her from reaching the grandfather, but she goes near and he tries to greet her by expressing sorry for all that happened. She immediately recollects a glimpse of her mother in the car and about the explosion and gets fainted.

She is taken to her room and given tablets to sleep. Viren mostly keeps himself by her bedside always. When she wakes up, she requests Viren to take her to her mother. Viren feels very sorry for her ignorance and thinks how to tell her that she is no more. But she insists on going and he presently avoids by telling that it is still midnight and he will take her tomorrow morning. She takes promise from him and sleeps.

Next day, she wakes up early and gets ready for going to her mother. She sings the prayer in puja room and tells everybody about her going to meet her mother. Viren's grandfather feels pity on her ignorance and all get afraid also thinking how she can  face the reality. Viren was still having his breakfast and Rajyalakshmi tells Parvati that she will eat at mother's place. So they start immediately.

Rajyalakshmi bought a bouquet of flowers to gift to her mother. Viren takes her to the cremation place and Raju doubts how can her mother be there in such a lonely and terrific place. But Viren does not reply to her doubts and takes her to a place covered with ash. He brings the bouquet from car and tells her to place it on the spot of the ash as her mother has become that ash. He narrates to her everything that took place during her shock period. She does not like his words and slaps him on his face many times. Even then, Viren continues to narrate her everything and makes her understand things. She recollects the car blast and message to Swamidass when going to attend the reception function and gets fainted.

Immediately she is taken back to the house and the doctor attends to her.giving some injection and medicines for recovery. He frightens everybody by saying that if she is unable to accept the reality, she may become insane and may not recognize any of them. So everybody wait for her opening the eyes praying to God. Veeraswamy also comes to her bed in his wheel chair as he is much worried. Viren sits at his feet weeping. Just then Rajyalakshmi opens her eyes and notices all waiting there with wet eyes. She gets up slowly and comes to the grandfather and sitting at his feet, cries like a child saying that her mother has left her for ever. Seeing this all of them feel happy that she has realised and accepted the fact and now there is no danger to her mental condition. Parvati thanks Prithvi, Neela, her parents and all others for standing as support in all her miserable moments. She thanks God also for saving Rajyalakshmi.

Rajyalakshmi performs the last rites of her mother with the help of Viren. She now fully digested the reality that her mother was killed in the blast and is no more. But her mother's thoughts do not leave her, as they were so closely associated with each other since her childhood. Raju could never think of losing her mother or that she may have to live without her. But now that is a reality and she has to face and accept it. Viren and Parvati notice that she is unable to forget her mother and is often sitting lonely lost in her thoughts or viewing photos of her in the album. She even do not take food properly. But seeing their concern for her, she tries to please Viren, Parvati and others by pretending to be happy and normal.
