Read the telephonic conversation between Malar and Selvi. Malar needs to leave a message for her father.

Malar: Hello, my name is Malar. Could I talk to Mr. Rao, please? I’m his colleague Mr. Vishvanath’s daughter. 
Selvi:  I’m sorry, my father is out for his morning walk. Do you want to leave a message for him?
Malar:  Yes, please. My father had to leave for Madurai all of a sudden since my grandfather is ill. So he won’t be able to come to work for a few days. It would be really nice if your father could inform the office.
Selvi:  Don’t worry, I’ll leave the message for my father. 
Malar: Thanks a lot.
Selvi: You’re welcome.
