At a company meeting he meets Sonia and it is revealed to everyone that she is married to Ranjit Roy. She also happens to be the managing director of the company. She does not offer Raj the post he wants but instead makes him the director. Sonia constantly flirts with Raj and the situation gets even worse when she flirts with him in front of Priya.
