Trailing her by a margin of seven shots is Panchkula's Amandeep Drall with a total score of 149 after 36 holes in the INR 6,00,000 event, which will culminate tomorrow.
Delhi's Vani had a shaky start, carding bogeys on the 3rd and 5th holes, but she quickly regained composure and carded birdies on the 6th and 7th to neutralise the damage in her front nine.
On her way in, she carded a birdie on the 14th while dropping shots on the 17th and 18th holes to finish the second round with an even par total of 142.
With a comfortable cushion of seven shots, Vani is well placed to annex her second title of the season.
