I have a bank loan of ₹ 25 lakhs and ₹ 6 lakhs in savings. But, the problem is, my father's income is only ₹ 2.4 lakhs per annum according to IT Returns. One guy told me to lie confidently that your father's income is minimum ₹ 10 lakhs per annum and if you told that your father's income is ₹ 2.4 per annum, then he will definitely reject you.
But I was nervous and in dilemma whether to tell the truth or not.

Me: (felt tensed and started to tell something) Sir, actually I was interested in Vehicle Dynamics. So, it will be easy for me.
VO: Can you explain me something about Vehicle Dynamics?
Me: Sir, it is the introduction to the performance of vehicle during driving off, braking. (VO is expecting more lengthy answer from me and is looking at me. So, I again started telling...) driving off, braking, etc., sir.
VO: Any forces involved?
Me: Yes sir, definitely. Many forces are acting on the vehicle during driving. So, forces are also taken into consideration while solving problems to find out performance.

Me: What sir? (I heard the question but I acted that I didn't hear the question properly, with a blank face.)
VO: (This time he changed the question slightly...) What is your father?
