00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,696
(phone rings)

2
00:00:09,696 --> 00:00:13,024
Niira Radia: Hi Rajdeep, sorry 
Rajdeep Sardesai: <i>Haan bolo...</i>

3
00:00:13,024 --> 00:00:22,239
Niira Radia: No I thought maybe you are in Italy after the budget.
Rajdeep Sardesai: No, no yaa where <i>yaar</i>...? I am going to meet the finance minister today after the budget for a idea that I want to share with him.

4
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:32,479
Niira Radia: <i>Achha achhaa.</i> I was just talking to Suhel and he was going off on his holiday after he's recovered from his...
Rajdeep Sardesai: Suhel Seth has a lot of time and money, neither of which I have at the moment.

5
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,064
Niira Radia: (laughs)
Rajdeep Sardesai: So I have to...

6
00:00:36,064 --> 00:00:43,744
Niira Radia: You've got a cold, is it?
Rajdeep Sardesai: No, no yaar, no no where yaa, it's hot yaar, it's hot as ever

7
00:00:43,744 --> 00:00:46,304
Niira Radia: It's awful, it's awful
Rajdeep Sardesai: Awful

8
00:00:46,304 --> 00:00:49,376
Niira Radia: Rajdeep, Manoj Modi is in town tomorrow
Rajdeep Sardesai: OK

9
00:00:49,376 --> 00:01:00,128
Niira Radia: And we are coming across to the Network 18 office in Noida tomorrow. Meeting Raghav and we were wondering if you were there
Rajdeep Sardesai: What time?

10
00:01:00,128 --> 00:01:07,040
Niira Radia: We are coming across at 3 30.
Rajdeep Sardesai: <i>Haan</i> 3 30 is fine because 12 to 2 I have a meeting. 3: 30 is perfect.

11
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:16,256
Niira Radia: We are there at Raghav's office at about 3:30. Can we meet up with you as well and have a run over with the gas issue and all that has been going on?

12
00:01:16,256 --> 00:01:27,520
Rajdeep Sardesai: Sure, sure, sure. But I think it might be easier because... I maybe... just suppose maybe if I have to cancel my Parliament thing, if I am not there, who will you meet in case I am not there?

13
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,847
Niira Radia: We are meeting Raghav, and Raghav said he may as well just call Shireen in

14
00:01:30,847 --> 00:01:40,064
Rajdeep Sardesai: <I>Haan</i> that's that's we'll take everything from them. But I want Manoj to meet Sameer Manchanda because Sameer and Manoj had a long chat in between on the cable thing.

15
00:01:40,064 --> 00:01:50,304
Rajdeep Sardesai: So I'll make sure that if I cannot be, I've committed to someone in Parliament, I realize now, if I don't return by 3:30 it will be a problem.  
Niira Radia: hmhmm

16
00:01:50,304 --> 00:02:04,384
Rajdeep Sardesai: But if I can, I will come, otherwise, uhhh if I can get someone from our team also to be briefed along, at that time I am fine, but frankly Shireen is the reporter who covers (inaudible) and all that

17
00:02:04,384 --> 00:02:16,136
Niira Radia: OK great because Raghav in his last convo had indicated, he said (inaudible) so Manoj said: Why don't we just go across to their office and I said I haven't even been across to your office...

18
00:02:16,136 --> 00:02:26,919
Rajdeep Sardesai: My own, my own sense that I get is that if Shireen is briefed properly, then we'll be fine because we'll take all our stuff from them. But if possible, if one of our guys who is covering it in the court can also be briefed, nothing like it.

19
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:27,501
Niira Radia: OK OK.
