Anjali got admission in NIM (Nehru Institute of mountaineering) course thanks to Colonel Abhiyankar. He measured the trade-off between Arjun’s behavior (he tried to buy Colonel with money for leading his expedition) and Anjali’s aspirations/attitude from heart.
He chose to listen to his heart and conscience rather than the rules and gave the courageous Anjali the admission to built her Identity. She finds a roommate Ruth from Norway and gels well with her via banter, girls’ talk and also try to teach her some lines of Hindi. All other students learns about Anjali’s courageous act in climbing the Colonel’s building. Anjali finds Aakash as a good boy and had a nice talk and did few blushes as well. He reminded her that she stands out there and looks like lost in her own world. Their bonding started off well.
