executives who sell to small customers. He is at times belittling in his
attitude towards them and even ridicules their efforts. However, Sudhir has tried

knows that Hari will have to be forced to go to small customers for promoting
the products. Sudhir, is aware of the fact that Hari is a man of strong likes
& dislikes and hence he is in a fix. He is also apprehensive that if Hari
