# The Krishna Paradox: A Psychological Thriller
Keshav's depression had escalated significantly when he arrived at the Krishna temple and met Rahul. Rahul made him realize that this was his ego. He wasn't Krishna, but rather his opposite. With this terrible attitude, he wouldn't even get the radio show opportunity he had just received. At first, Keshav was angry, but then he focused on one line: Krishna's opposite - meaning what appears to be one thing is actually something else in reality. This was an interesting topic to discuss on the radio show now.
The next day, when Keshav met his therapist and told her about this, the therapist got angry and said, "I told you this so long ago, but where do you pay attention to what I say? But don't forget, you still need a therapist." Keshav responded irritably, "Good money-making strategy for you, but I think gentle manipulation would be better." The therapist said, "Yes, yes, let me talk to this Rahul. Let's see how you'll show someone who doesn't exist that you're Krishna - will you perform miracles or magic? 😂😂"
Keshav said, "I'll give you his number right now." But Rahul's number wasn't in Keshav's phone. He didn't know how this happened. He said he would arrange for Rahul to speak with her. Later, it dawned on him that he didn't even know properly where exactly he had met Rahul - as a fan or as a co-producer of his show. And maybe he never took his number. Since he had recently reset his phone, some data got deleted. But some numbers were in his diary and SIM card. So maybe Rahul's was lost too.
He went to the radio show and shouted to call Rahul. But it turned out there were 5 Rahuls there. He tried all 5 numbers - none of them were the right one. Just then, a guest appeared and introduced himself as Raj. But he looked like Rahul. Keshav said, "Rahul, where have you been?" Raj said, "How did you forget my name, bro? I'm Raj, not Rahul." "Oh sorry. I'm a newly launching actor, so I gave you the wrong name. And I deleted my number from your phone myself so that no information would leak."
Then the radio show started, where they were supposed to discuss a story about a person's mental state. So what is reality and what isn't? In this context, Keshav suddenly started hearing voices of his old Krishna character, asking whether what he was seeing was truth, illusion, or maya. He took a headache pill and passed out.
Later, he saw that nothing so mysterious had happened. Actually, sound was coming from his Bluetooth phone doubly because his old series was playing. So Raj used his wit and mixed the series dialogues with his own dialogues to create the show after the break. So even in illness, this show became a superhit.
When Keshav woke up at home, he was very happy. But a bell-like sound rang in his ears and he started hearing Krishna's voice again, and he thought the sound was coming from his phone, but when he checked, nothing was there. He asked if anyone else could hear it. Everyone said no. Just then, the headache returned and he woke from the dream, finding himself right back where he had passed out, and here he said, "Raj."
Just then, Raj said, "Not Raj, Rahul. Earlier I told you my name was Raj, but a few days ago I told you my real name is Rahul. We met on Facebook and I deleted that account." And so the show continued.
Krishna's voice was heard again, but this time it was part of the pre-planned script for when Keshav would be resting. "So we'll do this." But something unexpected happened. That shoot never happened in Mahabharata. So Keshav got confused again about what was real and what wasn't.
He checked the radio show recordings again - some new voices came that were all familiar. Some were Keshav's and some were Raj's. But some conversation had happened externally. So what was this?
Later, Raj himself exposed it: "This is the magic of our new AI - it reverses and mixes data to create something so new that you can't tell what's new and what's old. Meaning, a device and mechanism to spin you in illusion (maya). 🤣🤣😂😂"
And then, with a scary sound, came the sound of a flute, which was the producer's trick. And the show ended.
