The next evening, Taapsee Pannu joined Vikrant on the sundeck of his yacht. “So, you tell me if I become a Genie then I can practically become the best lawyer overnight?”
Vikrant smiled and clapped, Ali and pooja appeared, with pooja holding a golden coloured lamp. Vikrant took the lamp held in his hand and said turning to Taapsee “Ready?”
Taapsee a little tentatively took the lamp into her hand and Vikrant closed her hands on to the lamp and started “As the maker of this lamp, and the opener of the gate, I name thee the gatekeeper. Taapsee, I bind you heart, soul, and body to this lamp so long as it exists. You control its power, whoever controls it, controls you. You are bound as the genie of this lamp, so sayith the lampmaker!"
“I, Taapsee, am bound to this lamp as its genie. I swear upon my soul to serve whoever owns the lamp as my master until I am freed or a new master takes me." Taapsee replied in a monotone voice.
Vikrant pricked Taapsee's finger and before pressing her blood onto the lamp, he spoke again. "I name thee Household Notary, Lawyer, and Legal Council on all matters regarding the laws of this world and others, and a harem slave. You will serve your Master in all respects to the utmost of your abilities." Taapsee repeated her charge back to him and was engulfed by the smoke.
Vikrant smiled and picked his new golden lamp and rubbed it slowly. The smoke poured out took a shape of Taapsee who was dressed in a gold-coloured dress. The dress looked like a suit but was a frilled skirt which ended just above her knees. She stood with her hair tied in a low ponytail ands a wide smile across her face.
She bowed and says “I am Taapsee, Genie of the Lamp, and your humble and loyal servant. I will grant thee three wishes and will serve thee afterwards in whatever function I can until you release me from your service.”
Vikrant held out his hand to Taapsee who took it with a soft touch “Taapsee of the Golden Lamp, this is the Pradhan Ali, and Pooja is the head of the harem. You answer to myself, then Ali, and then Pooja, and no one else. Rest of the genies are your equals”
Taapsee gave a small bow and replied “Your wish is my command master”
Vikrant smiled and continued “Now for my wishes, I wish that I had great legal sense and knowledge of the laws of this world. I wish that I had the materials to build another lamp. I wish for an analytical mind that would clearly understand the laws and use them.”
Taapsee smiled and clapped the knowledge hit Vikrant hard. He staggered but was able to find a grip and standing, he looked around to find Taapsee had changed into a white sari. She was looking ravishing yet innocent in a white halter blouse and the sari staying on with some difficulty.
