Solution

On a spring evening, some years ago, while living in Mumbai, I decided to take in a musical where I heard Lakshya Kumar sing for the first time. I was enthralled. I believed I had discovered the next Kishore Kumar. Yet . disappointed by the sparse audience , I decided to write an article to help promote him. Struggling to contain my excitement, the next day, I phoned the theatre where he was performing and unabashedly acted like a professional writer. "May I speak with Lakshya Kumar, please ! "  "Just one moment", replied the person at the other end. "Hello, this is Lakshya Kumar", answered a deep voice at the other end. "Who is speaking?" My trembling hands dropped the receiver and I seemed to have lost my voice. I heard the phone being disconnected at the other end. What an end to my grand plans !
