Shekar had just shifted to Pune and met his long lost friend Manish at the local cafe.
While discussing their personal life, Shekar asked Manish about his house rent. Manish said he was paying Rs 16500/- for a two BHK flat just on the edge of the city.
Shekar who had come from a smaller town was shocked that someone could pay so much as rent.
He asked Manish why he was doing a foolish thing paying such a huge rent to someone else.
Why not pay the same amount as EMI and get a home loan. Over a period, the home would be yours, Shekar exclaimed.
This got Manish thinking!
