Meanwhile, Durgaprasad puts ads in local newspapers for a nanny for Bharti. Jai sees this as an opportunity and calls Durgaprasad. Impersonating a female, he introduces himself as Mrs. Lakshmi Godbole and applies for the position. With the help of a drunkard makeup artist Joseph Johnny Walker in his last and memorable role, Jai undergoes a complete transformation into Lakshmi Godbole, a dignified elderly Marathi woman. He goes to the interview, where he is generally viewed as the last pick. But Bharti has an accident, and Lakshmi acts promptly to give first aid. Lakshmi gets the job and the respect of the Bhardwaj family.Jai begins the job, but creates plausible stories so that his real work schedule does not clash with the job in Bhardwajs home. Apart from Joseph, only Bharti who sees through her fathers disguise knows the real identity of Lakshmi. Jai learns that Durgaprasads secretary Banwari Lal Om Puri is not exactly thrilled at Laxmis entry. The reasons are various, such as Banwaris womanizing nature which naturally views an old woman like Lakshmi with dislike and his desire to siphon off Durgaprasads money via friendly maids. ........
