Be Happy (2025) Movie Script
Papa, can't you catch me
for a change?
Let me finish my dream for once!
I don't want your dream
to ever come true.
Ladies and gentlemen,
the award for the
Most Cruel Father goes to
Mr. Shiv Rastogi!
Breakfast's getting cold.
Couldn't you find someone
better to marry?
Why aren't you eating?
Because it's gross.
What did you say?
I'm full.
I have butterflies in my tummy!
I'll finally meet
Maggie Teacher today!
It will be a dream come true.
There's a dance competition
at school.
You don't get butterflies
during exams?
Genius kids don't worry about exams.
Oh, I see.
Genius kids also don't
score 49% in their exams.
49.8! Don't forget the 0.8!
- Sorry.
- Maggi!
- Lucky Maggi!
- Whatever!
For your lucky day.
You can't meet Maggie Teacher
without having Maggi, right?
You think you can get away with
missing my dance competition
by bribing me like this?
That dance teacher of yours
Miss Lottera.
Miss Loretta!
Oh, Miss Lotte, Miss Latte,
whatever she is!
I didn't approve her loan.
If she sees me there,
she won't let you win. Eat.
If I wasn't around,
what would happen
to this innocent child?
Oh God,
may every one get a Grandpa like me!
Uncle!
"Uncle."
Uncle?
Mr. Nadar?
Yeah!
Hey, Kusum!
What's up?
Aren't you going to the bank today?
Since you stopped visiting the bank,
what's the point of me going anymore?
Everything can be done
online these days.
So you're online,
but you won't accept
my friend request?
Could you water that plant, please?
I'm counting on you, okay?
Grandpa, my lucky move?
It's fun time! It's fun time!
It's fun time! It's fun time!
Seat belt.
Papa, I'm taking my tab out.
Please, one song!
How can I perform without
Maggie ma'am's blessings?
How I long to see your face
To cherish and hold you close
To adorn you like a crown
I'm the queen
My style oozes royalty
Behold my majesty
I'm fire and free
There is no escaping me
I'm Sultana With moves that slay
Sultana, across oceans I reign
Sultana, all hearts chant my name
Sultana!
Bye.
What?
Won't you watch
my dance performance?
I have lots of pending work.
Just like last time,
and the time before that too!
God knows who hires
such inefficient people!
Mom wouldn't have missed it
for anything.
It's time for our next contestant,
Jigar Sharma!
That's my boy, I taught him!
Give him a round of applause.
Come on!
Jigar!
She's very good, right?
After Jigar Sharma's
beautiful dance,
get ready to watch Dhara Rastogi!
Wow!
Hey, Mr. Beanpole,
mind sliding down a bit?
I want to watch the performance too.
- Slide down.
- Dhara! Dhara! Dhara!
And now, please welcome
the one and only
Maggie ma'am!
Thank you.
Hey.
Thank you.
Hello, everybody.
Hi, ma'am!
I'm so happy to be here today.
Such wonderful performances!
Before we announce the winner,
I'd like to tell you guys
how I feel about dance.
Dance is about skill, but foremost
It's about emotion.
It's about expression.
And those who can express
themselves through dance,
are complete dancers.
And for me, our winner
Is, without a doubt, a complete dancer.
So our winner is
Dhara Rastogi!
- Congratulations, baby!
- Thank you!
You were so good.
Dhara, where did you learn
to dance like that?
From you.
Watching your reels
and dance videos.
Really?
Yes!
Well, you don't need to
do that anymore, baby.
Because I'm inviting you
to Maggie's Dance Academy
to train with me.
That right.
And we'll train hard,
so that you can be prepared for
- India's Superstar Dancer!
- India's Superstar Dancer!
Yes, India's Superstar Dancer,
every dancer's dream!
I'll help you turn
that dream into reality.
So, will you come
to Mumbai with me?
Hello?
Mr. Rastogi! Mr. Rastogi!
Can I talk to you for a minute?
Miss Loretta,
I'm getting very late. Sorry.
It's going to take
just two minutes, please?
Mr. Rastogi, this is a
golden opportunity for Dhara.
I will handle everything.
Sorry, Dhara's not going anywhere.
I'll talk to you tomorrow.
But I won't be here tomorrow.
Papa, please!
Mr. Shiv
Seeing Dhara on stage,
it feels like she's born to dance.
And you decided that
after just one performance?
Papa, a glimpse is enough
to recognize true talent.
Kids from many cities come
to my school to learn dance.
And where did you learn all this?
I grew up in Boston,
that's where I started
Since I was a kid,
I've been into dance.
Not the dancing,
I mean the marketing.
Where did you get
your marketing skills?
Excuse me?
If Dhara does win
India's Superstar Dancer,
what will the other kids
in your academy do?
They'll grow your bank balance.
Papa!
Dance is beyond competition,
or making money.
It's a medium to express yourself.
Dance is a shortcut to happiness.
Dhara was born to be on stage,
not behind a desk.
Mr. Shiv,
there are two kinds of parents.
Those who live their own dreams
through their kids,
and those who live
for their kids' dreams.
Which kind are you?
The first or the second?
Your two minutes have
stretched to five.
I'm really getting very late.
Excuse me.
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.
Dhara
What's most important
for a dancer?
Beats?
Yes and?
Rhythm?
And?
Happiness!
Here and here.
Keep dancing, baby.
I'm sure we'll do something
amazing together one day.
Okay?
See you later!
- Hello, guys! Hi!
- Hi, ma'am!
Maggie ma'am
That is the best Tamil comedy film.
you know.
Yes?
May I come in, sir?
- Yeah.
- You called?
Shiva,
it seems my office clock
is running fast.
It's showing 9:40 a.m.
instead of 9:00 a.m.
Sir, Dhara's dance performance
I mean, my daughter's school had...
Enough!
Leave your personal
issues out of the bank.
I'm your manager,
not your father-in-law.
- Sorry, sir.
- Okay,
set up an online
banking account for Mrs. Gupta.
Her son will transfer money from America.
- She needs to check it.
- Sir.
Anything else, Mrs. Gupta?
No, no, Mr. Nadar.
Thank you so much.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Oh, by the way,
do you want anything from America?
Yes.
You know that iconic
poster of Marilyn Monroe?
I want a big one!
Thank you.
Hey, Shiva.
How did Dhara perform?
She won, right?
Sir, I'm an employee at this bank,
not your son-in-law.
Excuse me.
Be careful.
You might hurt yourself.
Why don't you ask your wife
to take your daughter to school?
She used to
When she was alive.
Oh.
What happened?
Here you go. All done.
Thank you.
Welcome to India's
Superstar Dancer Season 5!
I need those veggies for dinner,
not breakfast.
Was Papa always this grumpy,
or did losing Mom
make him like this?
He's been a grouch
since day one.
- Since childhood?
- Yes, totally.
The next finalist is
Any guesses?
Please, please
let Mitali reach the finals!
Arjun is better than her.
No! Mitali, Mitali!
Arjun, Arjun!
She's Maggie Teacher's student.
So what?
And the next finalist is
Arjun!
Yeah!
Hey
It's okay!
Hey.
You're sulking as if
it's you who missed the finals!
Mitali is the best.
She deserved to be in the finale.
It's okay, sweetie
You're sad?
It's okay, cheer up!
You win some, you lose some.
No, Grandpa.
It's not about winning or losing.
It's about performing
on the finale stage.
Oh!
A spotlight shines on you.
Oh!
Suddenly, all the
background noise fades.
All the ups and downs
you've faced in life
None of it matters anymore.
All that matters,
is you and your dance.
You're both nervous and excited.
You feel many emotions at once.
A rainbow of emotions!
Rainbow
And that shining trophy
All those who reach the finale
have their names
engraved on the trophy.
Then whether you live or die,
your name will stay
on that trophy forever.
Done with your dream sequence?
Wait and watch!
One day this dream sequence
will become my reality.
And you'll be by my side,
supporting me.
Right?
You're not going to Mumbai.
Hey!
Get lost!
Hey, Kusum!
Wasn't Grandma's name Devyani?
Whatever. Come on!
We have to prepare for war.
What's this?
Grandpa!
- Grandpa!
- Yeah?
- This is the border.
- Okay.
Ooty is on one side,
Mumbai is on the other.
- We need to cross this border.
- Right!
And to do that,
we must defeat the enemy captain,
Shiv Rastogi!
Oh.
Okay
But how?
By buttering him up!
Buttering him up?
Good morning!
And now for today's latest news
Attack the enemy
when he's off-guard.
Good morning, Papa.
Coffee?
Up so early?
That too on a Sunday?
The enemy is intelligent,
but we're always
two steps ahead.
Happy Father's Day, Papa!
Papa!
Mr. Nadar,
I hope this isn't poisoned.
The enemy will try
to provoke us,
but we won't let our guard down.
I added extra butter to it.
Papa, can you teach me math
after breakfast?
Math?
- Here you go.
- Stop, stop!
Eat up!
Papa looks very weak, no?
Here, have some more.
Shiv,
I think Dhara will find
big opportunities in a big city.
Why?
We should take Dhara to Mumbai
for a better future.
If she stays here,
at best, she'll become
a bank employee.
Just like you and me.
Papa, I promise.
Once we go to Mumbai,
I'll improve my 49.8% to 89.4%.
Huh?
Dhara,
what you're asking for
isn't some small toy
that I can get you
just like that.
Leaving everything behind
and shifting to Mumbai is not possible.
Hey, it's not that!
You don't have to move permanently.
Just for a couple of months.
A few months of training.
A few months for the show.
Come back in eight months.
Papa, please?
I won't ask for
anything else after this.
Shiv, you always
stand firm like a rock.
Today is Father's Day.
Be soft like cotton candy for once.
Next time, do proper research.
Father's Day is next Sunday.
No Mumbai.
Even Thanos isn't
as heartless as you!
Hey!
- What happened?
- What's wrong?
As if you care.
- Are you okay?
- I'm okay.
Finish your dinner, at least.
I'm not hungry.
Why are you like this?
- Bye, Dhara!
- Bye!
What are you doing here?
I thought we could go
for a long drive today.
With you driving,
every drive is a long one.
This was your mom's favorite spot.
If we spread our wings
We'll have a blast
As clouds drift by
We'll have a blast
We'll have a blast!
This is where we first met.
Now get down.
In your happiness
Joy I shall find
We'll have a blast
If we walk hand in hand
Good times aren't far behind
We'll have a blast
We'll have a blast
Look, Dhara.
You're a terrific dancer.
But I don't want you
to be someone
who only performs at other
people's weddings and functions.
I don't want you to spend
your life in the kitchen.
I want you to be independent,
just like your mom.
And that's only possible
if you study hard.
Dance can be your hobby,
not a career.
Got it?
If your mom were here,
she'd say the same thing.
Welcome to the Grand Finale of
India's Superstar Dancer Season 5!
Dhara, hurry up!
The finale is on!
You watch it, Grandpa.
I have homework to finish.
Huh?
What's going on?
Is this your new plan?
You kicked your grandpa
out of the team. Have you?
Hey, Dhara!
I won't spare that
son of a Grinch!
Well, I'm now the "scion" of a Grinch
And this scion needs to
study for her test.
Oh!
First the finale, then homework!
- Come! Come! Come!
- Grandpa, please give me my book back.
Hey!
What happened?
Hey, you're trying to act?
You're a great dancer,
not an actor.
Hey
What happened?
Are you okay?
- Tell me!
- You'll miss the finale.
I'm fine.
You're fine?
It's okay.
Come, come!
It is the finale first.
Come, we will see that.
And then we will do homework.
Does it hurt?
Sorry, sorry.
Mr. Nadar,
Dhara is my daughter.
I am her father.
And I'll decide her future.
Oh!
And what about your future?
Who decides that?
Whether Dhara stays
here or goes to Mumbai,
she will dance anyway.
She won't study.
I think the problem
isn't with her,
but with you.
I think you've had
too much to drink.
Me, Dhara
We've all moved on.
But you're still stuck there.
Shiv,
this place won't let you move on.
Get out of here.
Build a new life for yourself.
It's been
It's been eight years.
Eight long years.
Look!
You can't even cry.
Cry, Shiv.
You'll feel better.
It'll ease the pain.
Pain is all I have left of her.
Don't talk rubbish!
Pain isn't what you have
left of her
It's Dhara.
And she wants to
spread her wings and fly.
It's time to fly, Shiv.
Both for her and you.
If Rohini was here,
she would do the same.
Hey, Dhara! No!
What are you doing?
I heard someone scream
on the eighth floor.
But, Gopi, doesn't this
building only have seven floors?
That's for humans, man.
Ghosts have no limits.
- They can have 80 floors!
- Exactly.
So, I went up to the eighth floor
I saw a door
I opened the door.
I tried to peep in when suddenly
that door slammed right in my face.
Then I heard a sound behind me.
I could hear footsteps.
I turned around.
There was no one.
I thought I was safe.
Then out of nowhere,
a hand appeared.
The hand grabbed my hair and asked,
"Where is Nimesh Reshammiya?
Tell me where I can
find Nimesh Reshammiya."
How would I know that?
- We're on night duty, dude.
- Yeah, spare us the spooky tales!
Listen up!
No one believes me.
Good day, sir.
Moving in here?
Yeah, on the second floor.
Oh, I see.
Just be careful.
Come on, Gopi,
it's too early for this nonsense.
Follow me, please.
Come.
Ignore him, Mr. Shiv.
He was in a horror movie once.
The film got canned
and he lost his mind.
Don't take him seriously.
This way.
Welcome, Mr. Shiv.
This is your apartment.
That's it?
Consider yourself lucky!
The bank has provided
you with a nice flat.
You wouldn't even get this much space
if you rented your own place in Mumbai.
Papa, our bathroom
was bigger than this room.
Oh, so should we just
go back to Ooty then?
Of course not!
How much space do
I really need anyway?
Just enough to fit a study table.
- I'll take your leave.
- Thank you.
Okay, guys, this is a new dance routine.
Are you ready?
Yes!
Papa, close your mouth
or you'll catch flies!
Oh, Dhara.
Hey!
- You made it!
- Yes!
I'm so happy!
Shall we get started?
Imagining your photo here?
Hi, I'm Dhara Rastogi.
I'm Prem, just Prem.
Of course, I know.
I've seen your reels.
You're an amazing dancer.
You'll be great too,
once I teach you.
Then we'll make reels together.
You think I came all the way from
Ooty to make reels with you!
Prem, that's my father.
Papa, meet Prem.
Hello, Mr. Rastogi.
I must say you have
a very beautiful daughter.
Did your parents ever
consider naming you Romeo,
given your prodigious talent
for flirting?
Papa!
Shall we?
Bye!
You're not like your dad at all.
I take after my mom.
Bye! See you!
Let's go!
What are you doing with my books?
Just checking how different
the syllabus is at the new school.
You're so hard-working, Papa!
How was your day?
Awesome!
Everyone at school was fighting
to have lunch with me.
They were fighting
over cucumber sandwiches?
Not for the sandwiches,
but over who gets to be friends with me.
And your dance class?
I slayed so hard!
"Slayed"?
It's how kids talk in Mumbai.
I danced so well that
Maggie ma'am was like
"Dhara has to be on
India's Superstar Dancer!"
How was your day?
Awesome!
They threw a huge party
to welcome me.
People here are so
Warm and friendly.
- Hello, Grandpa!
- Hello.
I heard everyone in Mumbai
is trembling in their boots!
Why?
'Cause Dhara Rastogi has arrived
to conquer the city!
How's it going, Grandpa?
I'm having so much fun,
I'm afraid someone will jinx it.
I love you, Grandpa.
Of course you do,
I'm so cute, after all!
Do you miss me?
Yes, very much.
Grandpa, don't get sentimental.
I miss you too, Grandpa.
- Love you!
- Love you too.
- Bye-bye!
- Bye.
- Hello?
- Papa! Where are you?
I'll be there soon.
Wait for me.
- Can I go by myself?
- No!
Shiv.
Sorry, sir. Bye.
Dhara, should I drop you home?
I've been coming here for five years.
It's only been five days for you.
You'll get used to it soon.
You're quite the motivator,
aren't you?
It runs in the family.
Papa 2.0 is a motivational speaker.
Our conversations at home
sound more like TED Talks!
"Papa 2.0"?
My Mom and Dad got divorced
when I was a baby.
But now my mom is really
happy with Papa 2.0.
And so am I.
So, you can fall in love again?
Love is a great thing.
One should never stop loving.
Dhara!
How could you just
leave on your own?
Do you know that at least 3000 kids
get kidnapped in Mumbai every year?
It's dangerous!
Papa, give me your phone.
- Are you listening to me?
- No, you listen to me.
- Look, Dhara.
- Papa.
You're so stubborn.
I'm a dancer, Papa.
Papa, listen
I can't see you lonely anymore.
What?
I've installed a dating app
on your phone.
I want a nice Mommy 2.0.
I don't understand
You don't need to understand,
you need to feel it.
Remember, left is no,
right is yes.
All the best!
Remember, left is no,
right is yes.
Go to sleep.
I am sleeping, you keep swiping.
I have my head turned the other way.
Dhara?
Wow!
Aerial is my favorite.
- Really?
- Yes.
Good.
You'll be able to do everything.
But for that, you'll have
to work on your core strength.
My core is pretty strong.
Oh, that's great!
Then let me see it.
Okay.
Head up.
Very good.
Arch the back!
Very good.
Do it!
Yes, point, point.
Not bad!
Arch a bit more.
Oh, well done!
Wow!
Aerial is really your favorite.
Oh, Dhara.
You will be proud of me.
- Papa?
- Hey!
- What's wrong?
- Oh nothing!
Staring at your phone for
too long can ruin your eyes.
Yeah, okay, now have your dinner.
I mean your lunch.
Have your breakfast, or you will
be late for school. Come on.
No school today.
I got auditions today.
Oh.
Auditions for India's Superstar Dancer
just started.
Lots of eager kids from across India
are here to show their skills.
It will be very tough for the judges
to select the best among them all!
So let's start Mumbai's mega audition.
Guys, cut to camera five.
The judges will pick the ones
who impress with their moves.
Yes!
Some amazing dancers made the cut,
while others faced rejection.
Sorry.
You slipped and forgot your steps.
You were a little off-beat too.
It's a no.
Very good, guys.
Next, please.
Papa
I need a pep talk.
- What do you need?
- A pep talk.
I'm nervous.
Oh.
Okay.
Dhara, you are a PPF.
PPF?
Public Provident Fund.
You might feel all these Stock
Market Shares are better than you.
That they give bigger,
better returns than you do.
But remember,
they will face ups and downs.
They can go into the negative too.
But, you, my dear Dhara,
will always grow.
I've invested my whole life
in you because I know
you'll always yield great returns.
Go for it.
Pops, you must have won an
All-India audition to be my dad.
Maggie ma'am.
- Maggie ma'am.
- Where?
Over there.
Oh.
Listen,
can you swipe left
even after swiping right?
No, you cannot.
- No?
- Why?
Just asking.
I'll get you some water.
You just did.
Yeah, but it's really hot,
you must stay hydrated.
Hi!
Hello, Maggie ma'am!
How are you?
Good?
So, you ready?
I was born ready.
That's what I want to hear.
I'll see you inside.
Next contestant, please.
Yeah!
Yes!
Wow!
- Superb!
- Amazing!
- Outstanding!
- Super good.
I must tell you Maggie,
you've done a great job.
- Amazing!
- Prem, you're fabulous.
Thank you.
You can send the next
contestant on stage, please.
Yeah!
She's very good.
Nice!
Superb!
She's got style.
Great dancer. Fantastic.
- Amazing!
- Well done!
Dhara, who's with you?
My papa.
Bring him on stage, please.
Hi. Come stand in the middle.
Sir, we want to know how you feel
about your daughter's performance.
How you feel about
it is more important.
Dad is very interesting.
We really loved it, sir.
And we love that
you're supporting her.
If she keeps up with
her studies alongside dancing,
- I'll support her even more.
- Right.
Dhara, your dad is right.
Keep on dancing while studying.
And keep studying while dancing.
Now it's time to announce
your result, alright, kiddo?
You know what, Dhara?
Your dad is right.
You should give more
focus to your studies.
A spotlight shines on you.
A rainbow of emotions.
You'll see, one day this dream
sequence will become my reality.
But
After India's Superstar
Dancer is over.
- Congrats, girl.
- Congratulations.
After four weeks and more than
5000 dance auditions,
we have found
India's Superstar dancers!
Come on.
Hey Kusum!
- Mr. Nadar?
- Yeah?
Are you getting remarried?
I'd never break your heart
like that.
Dhara got selected for
India's Superstar Dancer!
Welcome to the grand premiere
of India's Superstar Dancer!
Keep going
Yeah.
Keep holding from that end.
And India, get ready to
welcome your top 12 dancers!
Put it here.

A truly grand performance
for today's grand premiere!
Outstanding!
Give it up for Prem!

Amazing!

Golden buzzer!
Dhara, your performance was a
Superstar!
What an amazing start, guys.
This time the talent is amazing.
This boy is a great dancer.
This girl is really awesome.
- Dhara! I think she's going to the finale!
- Mind-blowing.
Actually,
it's my daughter's birthday,
and she's been after me
to take her to the set
of India's Superstar Dancer.
Think you could
take us to the shoot?
She will be happy.
Did you steal something?
Steal?
Why are you constantly hiding?
I've been noticing
it for a few days now,
you always disappear
whenever I am around.
All okay?
Yeah.
Don't worry about it.
They'll take care of it.
Welcome back to
India's Superstar Dancer!
Today, our Top 11 will perform

Our next contestant

Move aside.

Oh, my God!
Superb!
You nailed it, Dhara!
With the highest marks
and highest votes,
India's new favorite is
Dhara Rastogi!
Next week, our top ten contestants
will show you their moves,
dancing alongside their
family members!
So, see you all next week
for the Family Round!
Congratulations, guys!
So now it's time
for the family round.
Nathan, who will you dance with?
My mama.
Nice.
- Prem?
- With my brother.
Dhara?
My grandpa!
I see.
You think you can handle it?
Huh?
Should I tell them,
or should I show them?
Show them.
Dhara!
Thanks, man.
You took the expression
"break a leg" a bit too far!
It's nothing serious.
You came all the way from Ooty
to Mumbai just to break your leg?
I'm fine. It's okay!
Now who will dance with Dhara?
Right, who will dance with Dhara?
Who will?
No.
Go, go!
Papa!
Papa!
Shiv, you have to dance
with Dhara in the family round.
I don't want to be a joker
on national television!
There's no other option, Papa.
I'll teach you.
Oh
Well, in that case,
why don't you come to the bank
from tomorrow,
and start opening FD
accounts for our customers.
- What?
- Exactly.
Just like you can't do that,
I can't do this.
Got it? Bye.
Hey
It's Friday the 13th today!
The building elevator
stops working.
Papa, please,
Maggie ma'am says I've got
dance skills in my genes!
I'm sure you can do it.
Papa, please!
If Mom was here, she'd do it.
I'm your papa,
not your mom.
Go inside.
What's wrong, Dhara?
Come on.
Hi!
- Hi.
- She just won't stop crying.
Let me try.
You'll be able to hold her?
Okay! Go to Papa.
- Go to Papa.
- Come.
Come on, now!
Oh
Be careful.
Come here, my baby.
Look at the lights.
Wow, look at the lights!
Your daughter did
what I could never do.
She made you dance.
I've taken a week off
from the bank.
Try to feel the music.
We still have lots to do
Let's go!
Five, six, seven, eight.
One, two, three, four
Stop, stop.
Guys, take a break.
Give me 100 bucks.
- What?
- Give me 100 bucks.
Sorry, I only have ten.
Where'd you get that from?
From my pocket.
No, where'd you get that from?
That's all I had.
I gave you everything I had.
Exactly.
You can only give
what you've got.
You can't give
what you don't have.
What does that mean?
It means if you aren't happy,
how will you give happiness?
So we need to find
you happiness.
But how?
Maggie ma'am,
what are we doing here?
I'll show you.
Dance!
- Come on, dance!
- No, no, no!
Papa, come on, dance!
When was the happiest
moment of your life?
When Rohini agreed to marry me.
Okay, good!
Now imagine that.
Close your eyes and let it flow.
Come on, come on,
let it flow, let it flow
Yes!
Mumbai really has
no space, does it?
Mumbai has lots of space
in its heart.
Listen
I'm sorry.
For?
I was a jerk to you in Ooty.
Oh!
I thought you were saying sorry
because you swiped right,
but never messaged me.
No, actually,
what happened was
Dhara forcibly installed
that app on my phone.
I was trying to turn it off
and accidentally swiped.
- I see.
- Sorry.
By accident?
- Yeah.
- That's even worse!
It's all good.
If you don't mind,
may I ask you a personal question?
Yes
I've been in love.
Twice, in fact.
Then nothing.
Well, they say the third time's the charm.
Yeah?
Welcome to India's Superstar Dancer.
Today in the Family Round, let's see
family connections unfold on stage.
Papa!
Hey Dhara, I I need that thing.
That
A pep talk!
Okay.
Papa, you're a terrible dancer.
I don't think you can pull it off.
Thanks!
It's not what I think,
it's what your manager thinks.
That manager who's sitting
in the audience,
waiting for you to mess up,
so he can clap gleefully!
Papa, give such a
killer performance,
that he has to call you sir,
not the other way around.
Rastogi sir!
Make some noise, because
next up with her Dad is
- Let's have a blast!
- Have a blast!
- Dhara!
- Let's go.
The Goddess has arrived
My Mother has arrived
Shiv, no matter what happens,
keep going.
Don't stop, got it?
Behold her splendor
My Mother has arrived!
Mighty and majestic
The Goddess has arrived!
You banish all our strife
Bring joy to our lives
No one can stop me
With you by my side
All powerful and pure
My Mother has arrived
Evil's end she ensures
The Goddess has arrived
With a thunderous roar
My Mother has arrived
With lightning in the sky azure
The Goddess has arrived
I keep walking with blistered feet
Let my blood decorate the streets
I'll keep each promise I made
I'll do it no matter what it takes
Whoever holds you dear
I'll protect them without fear
In you I found salvation
For you, I'd die without hesitation
My Goddess has arrived
My Goddess has arrived
My Goddess has arrived
My Mother has arrived
You banish all our strife
Bring joy to our lives
No one can stop me
With you by my side
The one my heart sings for
My Mother is here!
Vanquishing all evil
My Goddess has arrived!
Behold her splendor
My Mother has arrived!
Mighty and majestic
The Goddess has arrived!
My Goddess has arrived
He sure seems possessed!
Our lives are in peril
Protect us, O Mother
As doomsday draws near
Salvage us, O mother
In this dire hour
Mother, guide our way
Arise, lift your sword now
Keep destruction at bay
You are our only hope
To save this earth, O mother
Omnipresent, omnipotent
You are our queen, O Mother!
Behold, my Mother has arrived!
Behold, the Goddess has arrived!
Behold, my Mother has arrived!
Behold, the Goddess has arrived!
What a performance, man!
- Amazing dance.
- Superb!
Dhara!
Dhara, get up.
Dhara! Get up.
Dhara?
Dhara.
Dhara?
Dhara?
Dhara?
Grandpa!
Dhara?
Dhara?
Hey, what's wrong?
Dhara?
Call a doctor.
Call the ambulance!
Let's move! Move!
We'll have to run some tests
on her, so you'll have to wait.
Mr. Shiv
Dhara's report says
she's got Osteogenic Sarcoma.
Doctor, we'll do whatever
you tell us to do.
Diet, exercise, medication
Anything you say.
But
Dhara will be okay, right?
Mr. Shiv, Dhara has bone cancer.
Bone cancer?
But how did this
happen suddenly?
Mr. Nadar, it wasn't sudden.
It's developed over a few months.
It's usually detected when a patient
comes in for pain and swelling.
But those symptoms went ignored.
- Hey!
- What's wrong?
Don't lose hope.
It's curable.
The chances of getting cured
are as high as 70 percent.
But this cancer spreads very fast.
So we have to start the
treatment at the earliest.
We will start with
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
Three cycles are given,
at three-week intervals.
Mr. Nadar, you have to
look after Dhara.
You have to ensure
she is free from infection.
And you have to keep her morale very high.
And your morale too.
You're very scared, right?
Of course, I'm scared.
Because you don't
take care of yourself.
You keep eating unhealthy food.
How are you going to
get strength like that?
Dancing is hard work.
Papa, I know I won't be able to
work hard for the next few days.
This is what I got, right?
Osto Osteo
It's a tongue twister.
Why don't you say it?
Feel like crying?
Go ahead and cry, Papa.
Don't try to act
all macho in front of me.
I know you really well.
I cried too,
before you showed up.
Let's just let it all out
and be done with it.
You are going to fight it,
and you are going to win.
You still have
lots of dancing to do.
You've got to make
your dream come true.
And this dream of yours
will give you strength.
Okay?
Half of my dream has
already come true.
You've become good
at giving pep talks.
Once you win
Then
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast.
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
Louder!
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
Hi!
- Hello!
- Maggie ma'am!
I missed you!
Guess what, I have a surprise!
Come, come!
We love you, Dhara!
We will miss you!
Good.
Last week's top-voted
contestant Dhara Rastogi
won't be able to perform
this week due to health reasons.
But next week,
she'll be back with a bang!
For now, let's move on
and call upon our first contestant!
Okay?
You scared?
Thank God, you're normal.
Because for the past few days,
I've been feeling like
we gave birth to a superhero.
I'll wait outside.
Good?
The world has dimmed into a blur
This wound has cut so deep
Now tell me, what should I do
Give me a reason to live, will you?
Be careful.
Good girl.
Papa?
Yeah?
I've made a decision.
I want to quit
India's Superstar Dancer.
They are going to wait for you.
For how long?
I can't even go
to the bathroom by myself.
How will I dance?
And anyway
It's not fair to the other contestants.
You're a big girl now.
How long can I depend
on you for everything?
I'm a big girl now.
Within your world
Lies my universe
You are my only happiness
Hello and welcome to
India's Superstar Dancer!
I'm your host Jai Bhanushali,
welcoming you all back.
First of all, let's give a warm
welcome to our three rock star judges!
With great regret,
we have to tell you that
our favorite kid,
the pride of India,
Dhara Rastogi is going through
a medical emergency.
She needs your love and prayers.
India's Superstar
Dancer team is sending
their best wishes
for a fast recovery.
But for now, we must
bid her goodbye.
She has made the decision
to quit the show.
We're really going
to miss you, Dhara.
Grandpa!
Mr. Rastogi, I know that this
treatment is taking a toll on her,
but don't worry,
she is responding well.
Who sent all this stuff?
All of India.
My cutie-pie.
Papa, I'll just come.
Be careful.
Papa, before my hair
gives up on me,
I want to give up my hair.
What are you saying?
Grandpa, it's my birthday.
I want to be cool.
Come on, Papa,
make me cool!
Is this your truth
Or an illusion of mine
Has fate punished us
For some imaginary crime?
Crumbling my faith into fear
Mercilessly playing with my tears
Time has come to a halt
Now wake up, O Almighty God
A father's heart quivers
A father's soul shivers
A father's heart quivers
A father's soul shivers
Am I looking beautiful,
or am I looking beautiful?
You are beautiful!
An ocean rumbles deep within
A storm rages deep within
An ocean rumbles deep within
Grandpa
It's my birthday.
Happy birthday to me.
Happy
The mind is scattered
The heart shattered
Defeated and broken
With pain unspoken
Hello?
Hello, Dhara!
Hi!
Uncle, you know that
Dhara's existence
is the biggest boon in our lives.
So we should celebrate
that blessing.
Can we come over?
Yes, of course.
Yes!
What do you mean,
"Yes, of course?"
Don't you understand?
She has to be sterile.
There will be many more
birthdays in the future.
Tell them to cut a cake
there and have it.
Oh no!
What?
Just as Papa became cool,
Grandpa has become grouchy.
Listen, dear
Dhara, want to go for a long drive?
Yes, let's go for a long drive.
I'll get the car sanitized.
Papa, your long drive took
so long that the park closed.
Hey, Superstar!
In the left pocket, sleeps a heart so mad
Let it snooze a bit
That moody little brat
Don't be so lost
Let your mind go crazy
Lift up your mood
And sing with me
Let go of your worries
Have fun, there's no hurry
It's your time to shine
Go on, make some noise
Move everyone aside, take the spotlight
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Spin like a top
Or play hopscotch
Put that phone away
No excuses, no bluffing
Call your cool gang
Let the good times flow
Start a circus on the streets
Let's begin the show
Let go of your worries
Have fun, there's no hurry
It's your time to shine
Go girl, make some noise
Let's show the world
What a queen you are!
Super
Super
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Superstar!
Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Hey there, Superstar!
You know,
I had my whole life planned
out on an Excel sheet.
My plans with Rohini,
with Dhara,
in great detail.
But why do I always fail?
The more I try to recover,
the more I fall.
Hey!
Shiva, remember
How you tripped and fell
during your wedding vows?
But you never let Dhara fall.
You always took care of her.
I couldn't do that with Rohini,
and Rohini couldn't
do that with Dhara.
Come over here.
Come.
You're not a failure, son.
You are a topper.
Topper husband, topper father,
topper son-in-law.
And what was that
89.4%.
Rohini and I thought we would
fulfill every dream Dhara had.
-Once she gets better,
-Definitely.
I will fulfill every dream of hers.
I'll do whatever she asks.
Dhara?
Mr. Nadar!
Dhara!
- What happened?
- Dhara!
Call a taxi.
Dhara!
Hey, what's wrong?
Where's Shiv?
Hey
Is she inside?
Yeah?
She has swelling around her femurs.
They couldn't hold her weight.
It is not uncommon, but
it's also a matter of concern.
She had a fall because of weakness.
Her blood parameters
are still abnormal.
We will have to keep her
in the hospital till Saturday.
Come, Mr. Nadar.
We will sit in the office and talk.
Hi, Dhara.
Hi.
Dhara, look where I am!
Wow, the stage looks amazing.
But, Dhara, this is not fair.
I'll watch your final performance on TV.
Why not from here?
You'll get nervous seeing a dancer
better than you in the audience.
You will lose.
Now don't get sentimental
and go rehearse.
You have my blessings.
See you, Dhara.
Bye, take care.
Bye-bye. Good luck.
I have no regrets, Papa.
Can I say something?
Even if Mom were here,
I would've still loved you more.
I'll go home and get your stuff.
Okay.
Hail Lord Ganesha!
Hail Lord Ganesha!
Behold our Lord Our beloved King
-Glorious curved-trunked king
-Dearest Bappa.
- Please answer my prayers!
- Behold our Lord. Our beloved King
Glorious curved-trunked king
In your honor we sing
You answer everyone's prayer call
O generous one, you save us all
You answer all our prayer calls
O generous one, you save us all
Your glory lights up
Each and every home
You fix all our troubles
Never leave us alone
In your presence, joy fills the air
But when you leave, sadness we bear
You come and go once every year
But even when you're gone
Your presence lingers
Even when you say goodbye
We know you're always by our side
We praise thee!
Behold our Lord, our beloved King
Glorious curved-trunked king
In your honor we sing
Behold our Lord Our beloved King
Glorious curved-trunked king
In your honor we sing
Bestow upon us Your divine grace
Let Your power fill every space
Support us always, be our guide
May life be peaceful
With You by our side
In your presence, joy fills the air
But when you leave, sadness we bear
You come and go once every year
Even when you're gone
Your presence lingers
Only you rule our hearts
Behold our Lord Our beloved King
Glorious curved-trunked king
In your honor we sing
Behold our Lord Our beloved King
Glorious curved-trunked king
In your honor we sing
Hail Lord Ganesha!
Hail Lord Ganesha!
Dhara didn't come
back with you, sir?
She won't be back for some days.
This is happening because
of that terrible night.
Dhara came down in
the middle of the night
She dug a hole and buried
something back there.
Over there?
Easy, sir.
Be careful.
There could be a djinn inside.
Take it easy with that.
Mom, I already know it,
but the whole school must know
what a great dancer I am.
Persuade Papa to participate
in the family round.
Help me get into
India's Superstar Dancer, please.
Mom, make Mumbai my happy place.
Help Papa find Mom 2.0.
Mom, please teach Papa
how to smile again.
Grandpa, I can see my Mom 2.0.
Grandpa?
Actually
Your Mom 2.0 will get lonely.
So I'm seriously considering
getting you a Grandma 2.0 too.
Grandpa!
And now we welcome our special
guest for our grand finale.
Please welcome
the beautiful Sonali Bendre
and the ace choreographer-director
Remo D'souza!
Okay, what's up, Mumbai!
Today's important for
observing how her vitals are.
Let's keep her in the hospital tonight,
She will get consciousness in a few hours.
Where were you?
I'm so excited to be here
and see their performance in person.
Mumbai, are you ready?
Yes!
You must be hungry, right?
Go grab a bite.
I'll hang out over here.
I'm not hungry.
You go if you want.
No.
Why don't you go have some tea?
"Grab a bite, get some tea."
What's going on with you, huh?
You're feeling tired?
Why don't you go to the bathroom
and wash your face,
you'll become fresh.
You'll feel better.
Shiva?
The door seems stuck.
Try to open it from that side.
Shiva, are you listening?
Shiva?
Shiva!
Dhara!
Okay, I'll go check.
Don't worry.
Hey, Mr. Rastogi,
where are you headed?
Mr. Rastogi,
Dhara hasn't been discharged yet.
You can't take her with you.
Mr. Rastogi, listen
Shiva! Shiva!
Why didn't you stop him?
- Mr. Nadar!
- Rickshaw!
Good morning.
Papa, where are we going?
We were supposed to
watch the finale on TV.
We'll catch it.
Let's go.
Come on, come on.
Hi.
Seat belt off. Come.
Be careful.
Yes.
Let's go, baby.
Okay?
Hey! Shiva!
Idiot!
The doctor said
not to take Dhara out.
What are you doing?
How are you going to survive
if something happens to her?
Didn't you say that
I've never let Dhara fall?
I won't let her fall today either.
Mom please, help me get into
India's Superstar Dancer.
And these are our top four finalists
who are going to battle it out today.
So let the dance begin!
Complete blackout.
Standby.
Roll camera.
It's not about winning or losing.
It's about performing
on the finale stage.
A spotlight shines on you.
All the background noise fades.
Nothing exists, apart from you.
No matter how many ups and downs
you've faced in life.
Nothing else matters anymore.
All that matters is you
And your dance.
You're nervous
and excited at the same time.
You feel many emotions at once.
A rainbow of emotions.
How can I
Leave you and go
You're the only
Home I know
This world is a giant cage
You're my sky, my safe space
O Papa, let's go hide someplace
Where they can't snatch me away
All my heart wants is to be with you
And stay wrapped in your embrace
Your heartbeat whispers to me
Stay brave
There's nothing to fear
I follow in your footsteps
You pave the way for my dreams
Promise me you'll take care
And remember I'm always there
Flying across your open skies
O my Papa
O my Papa
O Papa, let's go hide someplace
Where they can't snatch me away
All my heart wants is to be with you
And stay wrapped in your embrace
How?
How do I look into your eyes?
I don't have the heart to say goodbye
How?
How do I look at you in vain?
Knowing I can't ease your pain
Before you shed a tear
My heart cries first
It feels as though my chest will burst
Your smile erases every sorrow I face
If only time froze right in this place
I want to be your wings
Fly off to a place far away
For I am your open sky
Don't ever be scared
For I'm always around
I'll never let go of your hand
All I want is to be by your side
You're forever my love and pride
Hear my plea
O Mighty One
Let my cries
Pierce through the din
Alter the wheels of fate
I beg
Don't destroy
My whole world within
Why this insistence, O Lord
To play with
Innocence this way
She's all
I ever asked you for
Why rob me like this
Of the greatest gift you gave?
for a change?
Let me finish my dream for once!
I don't want your dream
to ever come true.
Ladies and gentlemen,
the award for the
Most Cruel Father goes to
Mr. Shiv Rastogi!
Breakfast's getting cold.
Couldn't you find someone
better to marry?
Why aren't you eating?
Because it's gross.
What did you say?
I'm full.
I have butterflies in my tummy!
I'll finally meet
Maggie Teacher today!
It will be a dream come true.
There's a dance competition
at school.
You don't get butterflies
during exams?
Genius kids don't worry about exams.
Oh, I see.
Genius kids also don't
score 49% in their exams.
49.8! Don't forget the 0.8!
- Sorry.
- Maggi!
- Lucky Maggi!
- Whatever!
For your lucky day.
You can't meet Maggie Teacher
without having Maggi, right?
You think you can get away with
missing my dance competition
by bribing me like this?
That dance teacher of yours
Miss Lottera.
Miss Loretta!
Oh, Miss Lotte, Miss Latte,
whatever she is!
I didn't approve her loan.
If she sees me there,
she won't let you win. Eat.
If I wasn't around,
what would happen
to this innocent child?
Oh God,
may every one get a Grandpa like me!
Uncle!
"Uncle."
Uncle?
Mr. Nadar?
Yeah!
Hey, Kusum!
What's up?
Aren't you going to the bank today?
Since you stopped visiting the bank,
what's the point of me going anymore?
Everything can be done
online these days.
So you're online,
but you won't accept
my friend request?
Could you water that plant, please?
I'm counting on you, okay?
Grandpa, my lucky move?
It's fun time! It's fun time!
It's fun time! It's fun time!
Seat belt.
Papa, I'm taking my tab out.
Please, one song!
How can I perform without
Maggie ma'am's blessings?
How I long to see your face
To cherish and hold you close
To adorn you like a crown
I'm the queen
My style oozes royalty
Behold my majesty
I'm fire and free
There is no escaping me
I'm Sultana With moves that slay
Sultana, across oceans I reign
Sultana, all hearts chant my name
Sultana!
Bye.
What?
Won't you watch
my dance performance?
I have lots of pending work.
Just like last time,
and the time before that too!
God knows who hires
such inefficient people!
Mom wouldn't have missed it
for anything.
It's time for our next contestant,
Jigar Sharma!
That's my boy, I taught him!
Give him a round of applause.
Come on!
Jigar!
She's very good, right?
After Jigar Sharma's
beautiful dance,
get ready to watch Dhara Rastogi!
Wow!
Hey, Mr. Beanpole,
mind sliding down a bit?
I want to watch the performance too.
- Slide down.
- Dhara! Dhara! Dhara!
And now, please welcome
the one and only
Maggie ma'am!
Thank you.
Hey.
Thank you.
Hello, everybody.
Hi, ma'am!
I'm so happy to be here today.
Such wonderful performances!
Before we announce the winner,
I'd like to tell you guys
how I feel about dance.
Dance is about skill, but foremost
It's about emotion.
It's about expression.
And those who can express
themselves through dance,
are complete dancers.
And for me, our winner
Is, without a doubt, a complete dancer.
So our winner is
Dhara Rastogi!
- Congratulations, baby!
- Thank you!
You were so good.
Dhara, where did you learn
to dance like that?
From you.
Watching your reels
and dance videos.
Really?
Yes!
Well, you don't need to
do that anymore, baby.
Because I'm inviting you
to Maggie's Dance Academy
to train with me.
That right.
And we'll train hard,
so that you can be prepared for
- India's Superstar Dancer!
- India's Superstar Dancer!
Yes, India's Superstar Dancer,
every dancer's dream!
I'll help you turn
that dream into reality.
So, will you come
to Mumbai with me?
Hello?
Mr. Rastogi! Mr. Rastogi!
Can I talk to you for a minute?
Miss Loretta,
I'm getting very late. Sorry.
It's going to take
just two minutes, please?
Mr. Rastogi, this is a
golden opportunity for Dhara.
I will handle everything.
Sorry, Dhara's not going anywhere.
I'll talk to you tomorrow.
But I won't be here tomorrow.
Papa, please!
Mr. Shiv
Seeing Dhara on stage,
it feels like she's born to dance.
And you decided that
after just one performance?
Papa, a glimpse is enough
to recognize true talent.
Kids from many cities come
to my school to learn dance.
And where did you learn all this?
I grew up in Boston,
that's where I started
Since I was a kid,
I've been into dance.
Not the dancing,
I mean the marketing.
Where did you get
your marketing skills?
Excuse me?
If Dhara does win
India's Superstar Dancer,
what will the other kids
in your academy do?
They'll grow your bank balance.
Papa!
Dance is beyond competition,
or making money.
It's a medium to express yourself.
Dance is a shortcut to happiness.
Dhara was born to be on stage,
not behind a desk.
Mr. Shiv,
there are two kinds of parents.
Those who live their own dreams
through their kids,
and those who live
for their kids' dreams.
Which kind are you?
The first or the second?
Your two minutes have
stretched to five.
I'm really getting very late.
Excuse me.
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.
Dhara
What's most important
for a dancer?
Beats?
Yes and?
Rhythm?
And?
Happiness!
Here and here.
Keep dancing, baby.
I'm sure we'll do something
amazing together one day.
Okay?
See you later!
- Hello, guys! Hi!
- Hi, ma'am!
Maggie ma'am
That is the best Tamil comedy film.
you know.
Yes?
May I come in, sir?
- Yeah.
- You called?
Shiva,
it seems my office clock
is running fast.
It's showing 9:40 a.m.
instead of 9:00 a.m.
Sir, Dhara's dance performance
I mean, my daughter's school had...
Enough!
Leave your personal
issues out of the bank.
I'm your manager,
not your father-in-law.
- Sorry, sir.
- Okay,
set up an online
banking account for Mrs. Gupta.
Her son will transfer money from America.
- She needs to check it.
- Sir.
Anything else, Mrs. Gupta?
No, no, Mr. Nadar.
Thank you so much.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Oh, by the way,
do you want anything from America?
Yes.
You know that iconic
poster of Marilyn Monroe?
I want a big one!
Thank you.
Hey, Shiva.
How did Dhara perform?
She won, right?
Sir, I'm an employee at this bank,
not your son-in-law.
Excuse me.
Be careful.
You might hurt yourself.
Why don't you ask your wife
to take your daughter to school?
She used to
When she was alive.
Oh.
What happened?
Here you go. All done.
Thank you.
Welcome to India's
Superstar Dancer Season 5!
I need those veggies for dinner,
not breakfast.
Was Papa always this grumpy,
or did losing Mom
make him like this?
He's been a grouch
since day one.
- Since childhood?
- Yes, totally.
The next finalist is
Any guesses?
Please, please
let Mitali reach the finals!
Arjun is better than her.
No! Mitali, Mitali!
Arjun, Arjun!
She's Maggie Teacher's student.
So what?
And the next finalist is
Arjun!
Yeah!
Hey
It's okay!
Hey.
You're sulking as if
it's you who missed the finals!
Mitali is the best.
She deserved to be in the finale.
It's okay, sweetie
You're sad?
It's okay, cheer up!
You win some, you lose some.
No, Grandpa.
It's not about winning or losing.
It's about performing
on the finale stage.
Oh!
A spotlight shines on you.
Oh!
Suddenly, all the
background noise fades.
All the ups and downs
you've faced in life
None of it matters anymore.
All that matters,
is you and your dance.
You're both nervous and excited.
You feel many emotions at once.
A rainbow of emotions!
Rainbow
And that shining trophy
All those who reach the finale
have their names
engraved on the trophy.
Then whether you live or die,
your name will stay
on that trophy forever.
Done with your dream sequence?
Wait and watch!
One day this dream sequence
will become my reality.
And you'll be by my side,
supporting me.
Right?
You're not going to Mumbai.
Hey!
Get lost!
Hey, Kusum!
Wasn't Grandma's name Devyani?
Whatever. Come on!
We have to prepare for war.
What's this?
Grandpa!
- Grandpa!
- Yeah?
- This is the border.
- Okay.
Ooty is on one side,
Mumbai is on the other.
- We need to cross this border.
- Right!
And to do that,
we must defeat the enemy captain,
Shiv Rastogi!
Oh.
Okay
But how?
By buttering him up!
Buttering him up?
Good morning!
And now for today's latest news
Attack the enemy
when he's off-guard.
Good morning, Papa.
Coffee?
Up so early?
That too on a Sunday?
The enemy is intelligent,
but we're always
two steps ahead.
Happy Father's Day, Papa!
Papa!
Mr. Nadar,
I hope this isn't poisoned.
The enemy will try
to provoke us,
but we won't let our guard down.
I added extra butter to it.
Papa, can you teach me math
after breakfast?
Math?
- Here you go.
- Stop, stop!
Eat up!
Papa looks very weak, no?
Here, have some more.
Shiv,
I think Dhara will find
big opportunities in a big city.
Why?
We should take Dhara to Mumbai
for a better future.
If she stays here,
at best, she'll become
a bank employee.
Just like you and me.
Papa, I promise.
Once we go to Mumbai,
I'll improve my 49.8% to 89.4%.
Huh?
Dhara,
what you're asking for
isn't some small toy
that I can get you
just like that.
Leaving everything behind
and shifting to Mumbai is not possible.
Hey, it's not that!
You don't have to move permanently.
Just for a couple of months.
A few months of training.
A few months for the show.
Come back in eight months.
Papa, please?
I won't ask for
anything else after this.
Shiv, you always
stand firm like a rock.
Today is Father's Day.
Be soft like cotton candy for once.
Next time, do proper research.
Father's Day is next Sunday.
No Mumbai.
Even Thanos isn't
as heartless as you!
Hey!
- What happened?
- What's wrong?
As if you care.
- Are you okay?
- I'm okay.
Finish your dinner, at least.
I'm not hungry.
Why are you like this?
- Bye, Dhara!
- Bye!
What are you doing here?
I thought we could go
for a long drive today.
With you driving,
every drive is a long one.
This was your mom's favorite spot.
If we spread our wings
We'll have a blast
As clouds drift by
We'll have a blast
We'll have a blast!
This is where we first met.
Now get down.
In your happiness
Joy I shall find
We'll have a blast
If we walk hand in hand
Good times aren't far behind
We'll have a blast
We'll have a blast
Look, Dhara.
You're a terrific dancer.
But I don't want you
to be someone
who only performs at other
people's weddings and functions.
I don't want you to spend
your life in the kitchen.
I want you to be independent,
just like your mom.
And that's only possible
if you study hard.
Dance can be your hobby,
not a career.
Got it?
If your mom were here,
she'd say the same thing.
Welcome to the Grand Finale of
India's Superstar Dancer Season 5!
Dhara, hurry up!
The finale is on!
You watch it, Grandpa.
I have homework to finish.
Huh?
What's going on?
Is this your new plan?
You kicked your grandpa
out of the team. Have you?
Hey, Dhara!
I won't spare that
son of a Grinch!
Well, I'm now the "scion" of a Grinch
And this scion needs to
study for her test.
Oh!
First the finale, then homework!
- Come! Come! Come!
- Grandpa, please give me my book back.
Hey!
What happened?
Hey, you're trying to act?
You're a great dancer,
not an actor.
Hey
What happened?
Are you okay?
- Tell me!
- You'll miss the finale.
I'm fine.
You're fine?
It's okay.
Come, come!
It is the finale first.
Come, we will see that.
And then we will do homework.
Does it hurt?
Sorry, sorry.
Mr. Nadar,
Dhara is my daughter.
I am her father.
And I'll decide her future.
Oh!
And what about your future?
Who decides that?
Whether Dhara stays
here or goes to Mumbai,
she will dance anyway.
She won't study.
I think the problem
isn't with her,
but with you.
I think you've had
too much to drink.
Me, Dhara
We've all moved on.
But you're still stuck there.
Shiv,
this place won't let you move on.
Get out of here.
Build a new life for yourself.
It's been
It's been eight years.
Eight long years.
Look!
You can't even cry.
Cry, Shiv.
You'll feel better.
It'll ease the pain.
Pain is all I have left of her.
Don't talk rubbish!
Pain isn't what you have
left of her
It's Dhara.
And she wants to
spread her wings and fly.
It's time to fly, Shiv.
Both for her and you.
If Rohini was here,
she would do the same.
Hey, Dhara! No!
What are you doing?
I heard someone scream
on the eighth floor.
But, Gopi, doesn't this
building only have seven floors?
That's for humans, man.
Ghosts have no limits.
- They can have 80 floors!
- Exactly.
So, I went up to the eighth floor
I saw a door
I opened the door.
I tried to peep in when suddenly
that door slammed right in my face.
Then I heard a sound behind me.
I could hear footsteps.
I turned around.
There was no one.
I thought I was safe.
Then out of nowhere,
a hand appeared.
The hand grabbed my hair and asked,
"Where is Nimesh Reshammiya?
Tell me where I can
find Nimesh Reshammiya."
How would I know that?
- We're on night duty, dude.
- Yeah, spare us the spooky tales!
Listen up!
No one believes me.
Good day, sir.
Moving in here?
Yeah, on the second floor.
Oh, I see.
Just be careful.
Come on, Gopi,
it's too early for this nonsense.
Follow me, please.
Come.
Ignore him, Mr. Shiv.
He was in a horror movie once.
The film got canned
and he lost his mind.
Don't take him seriously.
This way.
Welcome, Mr. Shiv.
This is your apartment.
That's it?
Consider yourself lucky!
The bank has provided
you with a nice flat.
You wouldn't even get this much space
if you rented your own place in Mumbai.
Papa, our bathroom
was bigger than this room.
Oh, so should we just
go back to Ooty then?
Of course not!
How much space do
I really need anyway?
Just enough to fit a study table.
- I'll take your leave.
- Thank you.
Okay, guys, this is a new dance routine.
Are you ready?
Yes!
Papa, close your mouth
or you'll catch flies!
Oh, Dhara.
Hey!
- You made it!
- Yes!
I'm so happy!
Shall we get started?
Imagining your photo here?
Hi, I'm Dhara Rastogi.
I'm Prem, just Prem.
Of course, I know.
I've seen your reels.
You're an amazing dancer.
You'll be great too,
once I teach you.
Then we'll make reels together.
You think I came all the way from
Ooty to make reels with you!
Prem, that's my father.
Papa, meet Prem.
Hello, Mr. Rastogi.
I must say you have
a very beautiful daughter.
Did your parents ever
consider naming you Romeo,
given your prodigious talent
for flirting?
Papa!
Shall we?
Bye!
You're not like your dad at all.
I take after my mom.
Bye! See you!
Let's go!
What are you doing with my books?
Just checking how different
the syllabus is at the new school.
You're so hard-working, Papa!
How was your day?
Awesome!
Everyone at school was fighting
to have lunch with me.
They were fighting
over cucumber sandwiches?
Not for the sandwiches,
but over who gets to be friends with me.
And your dance class?
I slayed so hard!
"Slayed"?
It's how kids talk in Mumbai.
I danced so well that
Maggie ma'am was like
"Dhara has to be on
India's Superstar Dancer!"
How was your day?
Awesome!
They threw a huge party
to welcome me.
People here are so
Warm and friendly.
- Hello, Grandpa!
- Hello.
I heard everyone in Mumbai
is trembling in their boots!
Why?
'Cause Dhara Rastogi has arrived
to conquer the city!
How's it going, Grandpa?
I'm having so much fun,
I'm afraid someone will jinx it.
I love you, Grandpa.
Of course you do,
I'm so cute, after all!
Do you miss me?
Yes, very much.
Grandpa, don't get sentimental.
I miss you too, Grandpa.
- Love you!
- Love you too.
- Bye-bye!
- Bye.
- Hello?
- Papa! Where are you?
I'll be there soon.
Wait for me.
- Can I go by myself?
- No!
Shiv.
Sorry, sir. Bye.
Dhara, should I drop you home?
I've been coming here for five years.
It's only been five days for you.
You'll get used to it soon.
You're quite the motivator,
aren't you?
It runs in the family.
Papa 2.0 is a motivational speaker.
Our conversations at home
sound more like TED Talks!
"Papa 2.0"?
My Mom and Dad got divorced
when I was a baby.
But now my mom is really
happy with Papa 2.0.
And so am I.
So, you can fall in love again?
Love is a great thing.
One should never stop loving.
Dhara!
How could you just
leave on your own?
Do you know that at least 3000 kids
get kidnapped in Mumbai every year?
It's dangerous!
Papa, give me your phone.
- Are you listening to me?
- No, you listen to me.
- Look, Dhara.
- Papa.
You're so stubborn.
I'm a dancer, Papa.
Papa, listen
I can't see you lonely anymore.
What?
I've installed a dating app
on your phone.
I want a nice Mommy 2.0.
I don't understand
You don't need to understand,
you need to feel it.
Remember, left is no,
right is yes.
All the best!
Remember, left is no,
right is yes.
Go to sleep.
I am sleeping, you keep swiping.
I have my head turned the other way.
Dhara?
Wow!
Aerial is my favorite.
- Really?
- Yes.
Good.
You'll be able to do everything.
But for that, you'll have
to work on your core strength.
My core is pretty strong.
Oh, that's great!
Then let me see it.
Okay.
Head up.
Very good.
Arch the back!
Very good.
Do it!
Yes, point, point.
Not bad!
Arch a bit more.
Oh, well done!
Wow!
Aerial is really your favorite.
Oh, Dhara.
You will be proud of me.
- Papa?
- Hey!
- What's wrong?
- Oh nothing!
Staring at your phone for
too long can ruin your eyes.
Yeah, okay, now have your dinner.
I mean your lunch.
Have your breakfast, or you will
be late for school. Come on.
No school today.
I got auditions today.
Oh.
Auditions for India's Superstar Dancer
just started.
Lots of eager kids from across India
are here to show their skills.
It will be very tough for the judges
to select the best among them all!
So let's start Mumbai's mega audition.
Guys, cut to camera five.
The judges will pick the ones
who impress with their moves.
Yes!
Some amazing dancers made the cut,
while others faced rejection.
Sorry.
You slipped and forgot your steps.
You were a little off-beat too.
It's a no.
Very good, guys.
Next, please.
Papa
I need a pep talk.
- What do you need?
- A pep talk.
I'm nervous.
Oh.
Okay.
Dhara, you are a PPF.
PPF?
Public Provident Fund.
You might feel all these Stock
Market Shares are better than you.
That they give bigger,
better returns than you do.
But remember,
they will face ups and downs.
They can go into the negative too.
But, you, my dear Dhara,
will always grow.
I've invested my whole life
in you because I know
you'll always yield great returns.
Go for it.
Pops, you must have won an
All-India audition to be my dad.
Maggie ma'am.
- Maggie ma'am.
- Where?
Over there.
Oh.
Listen,
can you swipe left
even after swiping right?
No, you cannot.
- No?
- Why?
Just asking.
I'll get you some water.
You just did.
Yeah, but it's really hot,
you must stay hydrated.
Hi!
Hello, Maggie ma'am!
How are you?
Good?
So, you ready?
I was born ready.
That's what I want to hear.
I'll see you inside.
Next contestant, please.
Yeah!
Yes!
Wow!
- Superb!
- Amazing!
- Outstanding!
- Super good.
I must tell you Maggie,
you've done a great job.
- Amazing!
- Prem, you're fabulous.
Thank you.
You can send the next
contestant on stage, please.
Yeah!
She's very good.
Nice!
Superb!
She's got style.
Great dancer. Fantastic.
- Amazing!
- Well done!
Dhara, who's with you?
My papa.
Bring him on stage, please.
Hi. Come stand in the middle.
Sir, we want to know how you feel
about your daughter's performance.
How you feel about
it is more important.
Dad is very interesting.
We really loved it, sir.
And we love that
you're supporting her.
If she keeps up with
her studies alongside dancing,
- I'll support her even more.
- Right.
Dhara, your dad is right.
Keep on dancing while studying.
And keep studying while dancing.
Now it's time to announce
your result, alright, kiddo?
You know what, Dhara?
Your dad is right.
You should give more
focus to your studies.
A spotlight shines on you.
A rainbow of emotions.
You'll see, one day this dream
sequence will become my reality.
But
After India's Superstar
Dancer is over.
- Congrats, girl.
- Congratulations.
After four weeks and more than
5000 dance auditions,
we have found
India's Superstar dancers!
Come on.
Hey Kusum!
- Mr. Nadar?
- Yeah?
Are you getting remarried?
I'd never break your heart
like that.
Dhara got selected for
India's Superstar Dancer!
Welcome to the grand premiere
of India's Superstar Dancer!
Keep going
Yeah.
Keep holding from that end.
And India, get ready to
welcome your top 12 dancers!
Put it here.
Yes!
A truly grand performance
for today's grand premiere!
Outstanding!
Give it up for Prem!
- That's my verdict
- And that is mine.
Amazing!
- Superb!
- Lovely!
Let's welcome our next performer
Dhara Rastogi!
My sweetie!
Superb!
Welcome to the show, Dhara,

Amazing!

Wow!
Incredible!
Congratulations!
Golden buzzer!
Dhara, your performance was a
Superstar!
What an amazing start, guys.
This time the talent is amazing.
This boy is a great dancer.
This girl is really awesome.
- Dhara! I think she's going to the finale!
- Mind-blowing.
Actually,
it's my daughter's birthday,
and she's been after me
to take her to the set
of India's Superstar Dancer.
Think you could
take us to the shoot?
She will be happy.
Did you steal something?
Steal?
Why are you constantly hiding?
I've been noticing
it for a few days now,
you always disappear
whenever I am around.
All okay?
Yeah.
Don't worry about it.
They'll take care of it.
Welcome back to
India's Superstar Dancer!
Today, our Top 11 will perform
in the "Best Foot Forward" round.
Yeah!
Oh, wow!
Our next contestant

Oh, my God!
Superb!
You nailed it, Dhara!
With the highest marks
and highest votes,
India's new favorite is
Dhara Rastogi!
Next week, our top ten contestants
will show you their moves,
dancing alongside their
family members!
So, see you all next week
for the Family Round!
Congratulations, guys!
So now it's time
for the family round.
Nathan, who will you dance with?
My mama.
Nice.
- Prem?
- With my brother.
Dhara?
My grandpa!
I see.
You think you can handle it?
Huh?
Should I tell them,
or should I show them?
Show them.
Dhara!
Thanks, man.
You took the expression
"break a leg" a bit too far!
It's nothing serious.
You came all the way from Ooty
to Mumbai just to break your leg?
I'm fine. It's okay!
Now who will dance with Dhara?
Right, who will dance with Dhara?
Who will?
No.
Go, go!
Papa!
Papa!
Shiv, you have to dance
with Dhara in the family round.
I don't want to be a joker
on national television!
There's no other option, Papa.
I'll teach you.
Oh
Well, in that case,
why don't you come to the bank
from tomorrow,
and start opening FD
accounts for our customers.
- What?
- Exactly.
Just like you can't do that,
I can't do this.
Got it? Bye.
Hey
It's Friday the 13th today!
The building elevator
stops working.
Papa, please,
Maggie ma'am says I've got
dance skills in my genes!
I'm sure you can do it.
Papa, please!
If Mom was here, she'd do it.
I'm your papa,
not your mom.
Go inside.
What's wrong, Dhara?
Come on.
Hi!
- Hi.
- She just won't stop crying.
Let me try.
You'll be able to hold her?
Okay! Go to Papa.
- Go to Papa.
- Come.
Come on, now!
Oh
Be careful.
Come here, my baby.
Look at the lights.
Wow, look at the lights!
Your daughter did
what I could never do.
She made you dance.
I've taken a week off
from the bank.
Try to feel the music.
We still have lots to do
Let's go!
Five, six, seven, eight.
One, two, three, four
Stop, stop.
Guys, take a break.
Give me 100 bucks.
- What?
- Give me 100 bucks.
Sorry, I only have ten.
Where'd you get that from?
From my pocket.
No, where'd you get that from?
That's all I had.
I gave you everything I had.
Exactly.
You can only give
what you've got.
You can't give
what you don't have.
What does that mean?
It means if you aren't happy,
how will you give happiness?
So we need to find
you happiness.
But how?
Maggie ma'am,
what are we doing here?
I'll show you.
Dance!
- Come on, dance!
- No, no, no!
Papa, come on, dance!
When was the happiest
moment of your life?
When Rohini agreed to marry me.
Okay, good!
Now imagine that.
Close your eyes and let it flow.
Come on, come on,
let it flow, let it flow
Yes!
Mumbai really has
no space, does it?
Mumbai has lots of space
in its heart.
Listen
I'm sorry.
For?
I was a jerk to you in Ooty.
Oh!
I thought you were saying sorry
because you swiped right,
but never messaged me.
No, actually,
what happened was
Dhara forcibly installed
that app on my phone.
I was trying to turn it off
and accidentally swiped.
- I see.
- Sorry.
By accident?
- Yeah.
- That's even worse!
It's all good.
If you don't mind,
may I ask you a personal question?
Yes
I've been in love.
Twice, in fact.
Then nothing.
Well, they say the third time's the charm.
Yeah?
Welcome to India's Superstar Dancer.
Today in the Family Round, let's see
family connections unfold on stage.
Papa!
Hey Dhara, I I need that thing.
That
A pep talk!
Okay.
Papa, you're a terrible dancer.
I don't think you can pull it off.
Thanks!
It's not what I think,
it's what your manager thinks.
That manager who's sitting
in the audience,
waiting for you to mess up,
so he can clap gleefully!
Papa, give such a
killer performance,
that he has to call you sir,
not the other way around.
Rastogi sir!
Make some noise, because
next up with her Dad is
- Let's have a blast!
- Have a blast!
- Dhara!
- Let's go.
The Goddess has arrived
My Mother has arrived
Shiv, no matter what happens,
keep going.
Don't stop, got it?
Behold her splendor
My Mother has arrived!
Mighty and majestic
The Goddess has arrived!
You banish all our strife
Bring joy to our lives
No one can stop me
With you by my side
All powerful and pure
My Mother has arrived
Evil's end she ensures
The Goddess has arrived
With a thunderous roar
My Mother has arrived
With lightning in the sky azure
The Goddess has arrived
I keep walking with blistered feet
Let my blood decorate the streets
I'll keep each promise I made
I'll do it no matter what it takes
Whoever holds you dear
I'll protect them without fear
In you I found salvation
For you, I'd die without hesitation
My Goddess has arrived
My Goddess has arrived
My Goddess has arrived
My Mother has arrived
You banish all our strife
Bring joy to our lives
No one can stop me
With you by my side
The one my heart sings for
My Mother is here!
Vanquishing all evil
My Goddess has arrived!
Behold her splendor
My Mother has arrived!
Mighty and majestic
The Goddess has arrived!
My Goddess has arrived
He sure seems possessed!
Our lives are in peril
Protect us, O Mother
As doomsday draws near
Salvage us, O mother
In this dire hour
Mother, guide our way
Arise, lift your sword now
Keep destruction at bay
You are our only hope
To save this earth, O mother
Omnipresent, omnipotent
You are our queen, O Mother!
Behold, my Mother has arrived!
Behold, the Goddess has arrived!
Behold, my Mother has arrived!
Behold, the Goddess has arrived!
What a performance, man!
- Amazing dance.
- Superb!
Dhara!
Dhara, get up.
Dhara! Get up.
Dhara?
Dhara.
Dhara?
Dhara?
Dhara?
Grandpa!
Dhara?
Dhara?
Hey, what's wrong?
Dhara?
Call a doctor.
Call the ambulance!
Let's move! Move!
We'll have to run some tests
on her, so you'll have to wait.
Mr. Shiv
Dhara's report says
she's got Osteogenic Sarcoma.
Doctor, we'll do whatever
you tell us to do.
Diet, exercise, medication
Anything you say.
But
Dhara will be okay, right?
Mr. Shiv, Dhara has bone cancer.
Bone cancer?
But how did this
happen suddenly?
Mr. Nadar, it wasn't sudden.
It's developed over a few months.
It's usually detected when a patient
comes in for pain and swelling.
But those symptoms went ignored.
- Hey!
- What's wrong?
Don't lose hope.
It's curable.
The chances of getting cured
are as high as 70 percent.
But this cancer spreads very fast.
So we have to start the
treatment at the earliest.
We will start with
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
Three cycles are given,
at three-week intervals.
Mr. Nadar, you have to
look after Dhara.
You have to ensure
she is free from infection.
And you have to keep her morale very high.
And your morale too.
You're very scared, right?
Of course, I'm scared.
Because you don't
take care of yourself.
You keep eating unhealthy food.
How are you going to
get strength like that?
Dancing is hard work.
Papa, I know I won't be able to
work hard for the next few days.
This is what I got, right?
Osto Osteo
It's a tongue twister.
Why don't you say it?
Feel like crying?
Go ahead and cry, Papa.
Don't try to act
all macho in front of me.
I know you really well.
I cried too,
before you showed up.
Let's just let it all out
and be done with it.
You are going to fight it,
and you are going to win.
You still have
lots of dancing to do.
You've got to make
your dream come true.
And this dream of yours
will give you strength.
Okay?
Half of my dream has
already come true.
You've become good
at giving pep talks.
Once you win
Then
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast.
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
Louder!
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
We'll have a blast!
Hi!
- Hello!
- Maggie ma'am!
I missed you!
Guess what, I have a surprise!
Come, come!
We love you, Dhara!
We will miss you!
Good.
Last week's top-voted
contestant Dhara Rastogi
won't be able to perform
this week due to health reasons.
But next week,
she'll be back with a bang!
For now, let's move on
and call upon our first contestant!
Okay?
You scared?
Thank God, you're normal.
Because for the past few days,
I've been feeling like
we gave birth to a superhero.
I'll wait outside.
Good?
The world has dimmed into a blur
This wound has cut so deep
Now tell me, what should I do
Give me a reason to live, will you?
Be careful.
Good girl.
Papa?
Yeah?
I've made a decision.
I want to quit
India's Superstar Dancer.
They are going to wait for you.
For how long?
I can't even go
to the bathroom by myself.
How will I dance?
And anyway
It's not fair to the other contestants.
You're a big girl now.
How long can I depend
on you for everything?
I'm a big girl now.
Within your world
Lies my universe
You are my only happiness
Hello and welcome to
India's Superstar Dancer!
I'm your host Jai Bhanushali,
welcoming you all back.
First of all, let's give a warm
welcome to our three rock star judges!
With great regret,
we have to tell you that
our favorite kid,
the pride of India,
Dhara Rastogi is going through
a medical emergency.
She needs your love and prayers.
India's Superstar
Dancer team is sending
their best wishes
for a fast recovery.
But for now, we must
bid her goodbye.
She has made the decision
to quit the show.
We're really going
to miss you, Dhara.
Grandpa!
Mr. Rastogi, I know that this
treatment is taking a toll on her,
but don't worry,
she is responding well.
Who sent all this stuff?
All of India.
My cutie-pie.
Papa, I'll just come.
Be careful.
Papa, before my hair
gives up on me,
I want to give up my hair.
What are you saying?
Grandpa, it's my birthday.
I want to be cool.
Come on, Papa,
make me cool!
Is this your truth
Or an illusion of mine
Has fate punished us
For some imaginary crime?
Crumbling my faith into fear
Mercilessly playing with my tears
Time has come to a halt
Now wake up, O Almighty God
A father's heart quivers
A father's soul shivers
A father's heart quivers
A father's soul shivers
Am I looking beautiful,
or am I looking beautiful?
You are beautiful!
An ocean rumbles deep within
A storm rages deep within
An ocean rumbles deep within
Grandpa
It's my birthday.
Happy birthday to me.
Happy
The mind is scattered
The heart shattered
Defeated and broken
With pain unspoken
Hello?
Hello, Dhara!
Hi!
Uncle, you know that
Dhara's existence
is the biggest boon in our lives.
So we should celebrate
that blessing.
Can we come over?
Yes, of course.
Yes!
What do you mean,
"Yes, of course?"
Don't you understand?
She has to be sterile.
There will be many more
birthdays in the future.
Tell them to cut a cake
there and have it.
Oh no!
What?
Just as Papa became cool,
Grandpa has become grouchy.
Listen, dear
Dhara, want to go for a long drive?
Yes, let's go for a long drive.
I'll get the car sanitized.
Papa, your long drive took
so long that the park closed.
Hey, Superstar!
In the left pocket, sleeps a heart so mad
Let it snooze a bit
That moody little brat
Don't be so lost
Let your mind go crazy
Lift up your mood
And sing with me
Let go of your worries
Have fun, there's no hurry
It's your time to shine
Go on, make some noise
Move everyone aside, take the spotlight
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Spin like a top
Or play hopscotch
Put that phone away
No excuses, no bluffing
Call your cool gang
Let the good times flow
Start a circus on the streets
Let's begin the show
Let go of your worries
Have fun, there's no hurry
It's your time to shine
Go girl, make some noise
Let's show the world
What a queen you are!
Super
Super
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Super-Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Superstar!
Superstar!
Now I wonder what you are!
Hey there, Superstar!
You know,
I had my whole life planned
out on an Excel sheet.
My plans with Rohini,
with Dhara,
in great detail.
But why do I always fail?
The more I try to recover,
the more I fall.
Hey!
Shiva, remember
How you tripped and fell
during your wedding vows?
But you never let Dhara fall.
You always took care of her.
I couldn't do that with Rohini,
and Rohini couldn't
do that with Dhara.
Come over here.
Come.
You're not a failure, son.
You are a topper.
Topper husband, topper father,
topper son-in-law.
And what was that
89.4%.
Rohini and I thought we would
fulfill every dream Dhara had.
-Once she gets better,
-Definitely.
I will fulfill every dream of hers.
I'll do whatever she asks.
Dhara?
Mr. Nadar!
Dhara!
- What happened?
- Dhara!
Call a taxi.
Dhara!
Hey, what's wrong?
Where's Shiv?
Hey
Is she inside?
Yeah?
She has swelling around her femurs.
They couldn't hold her weight.
It is not uncommon, but
it's also a matter of concern.
She had a fall because of weakness.
Her blood parameters
are still abnormal.
We will have to keep her
in the hospital till Saturday.
Come, Mr. Nadar.
We will sit in the office and talk.
Hi, Dhara.
Hi.
Dhara, look where I am!
Wow, the stage looks amazing.
But, Dhara, this is not fair.
I'll watch your final performance on TV.
Why not from here?
You'll get nervous seeing a dancer
better than you in the audience.
You will lose.
Now don't get sentimental
and go rehearse.
You have my blessings.
See you, Dhara.
Bye, take care.
Bye-bye. Good luck.
I have no regrets, Papa.
Can I say something?
Even if Mom were here,
I would've still loved you more.
I'll go home and get your stuff.
Okay.
Hail Lord Ganesha!
Hail Lord Ganesha!
Behold our Lord Our beloved King
-Glorious curved-trunked king
-Dearest Bappa.
- Please answer my prayers!
- Behold our Lord. Our beloved King
Glorious curved-trunked king
In your honor we sing
You answer everyone's prayer call
O generous one, you save us all
You answer all our prayer calls
O generous one, you save us all
Your glory lights up
Each and every home
You fix all our troubles
Never leave us alone
In your presence, joy fills the air
But when you leave, sadness we bear
You come and go once every year
But even when you're gone
Your presence lingers
Even when you say goodbye
We know you're always by our side
We praise thee!
Behold our Lord, our beloved King
Glorious curved-trunked king
In your honor we sing
Behold our Lord Our beloved King
Glorious curved-trunked king
In your honor we sing
Bestow upon us Your divine grace
Let Your power fill every space
Support us always, be our guide
May life be peaceful
With You by our side
In your presence, joy fills the air
But when you leave, sadness we bear
You come and go once every year
Even when you're gone
Your presence lingers
Only you rule our hearts
Behold our Lord Our beloved King
Glorious curved-trunked king
In your honor we sing
Behold our Lord Our beloved King
Glorious curved-trunked king
In your honor we sing
Hail Lord Ganesha!
Hail Lord Ganesha!
Dhara didn't come
back with you, sir?
She won't be back for some days.
This is happening because
of that terrible night.
Dhara came down in
the middle of the night
She dug a hole and buried
something back there.
Over there?
Easy, sir.
Be careful.
There could be a djinn inside.
Take it easy with that.
Mom, I already know it,
but the whole school must know
what a great dancer I am.
Persuade Papa to participate
in the family round.
Help me get into
India's Superstar Dancer, please.
Mom, make Mumbai my happy place.
Help Papa find Mom 2.0.
Mom, please teach Papa
how to smile again.
Grandpa, I can see my Mom 2.0.
Grandpa?
Actually
Your Mom 2.0 will get lonely.
So I'm seriously considering
getting you a Grandma 2.0 too.
Grandpa!
And now we welcome our special
guest for our grand finale.
Please welcome
the beautiful Sonali Bendre
and the ace choreographer-director
Remo D'souza!
Okay, what's up, Mumbai!
Today's important for
observing how her vitals are.
Let's keep her in the hospital tonight,
She will get consciousness in a few hours.
Where were you?
I'm so excited to be here
and see their performance in person.
Mumbai, are you ready?
Yes!
You must be hungry, right?
Go grab a bite.
I'll hang out over here.
I'm not hungry.
You go if you want.
No.
Why don't you go have some tea?
"Grab a bite, get some tea."
What's going on with you, huh?
You're feeling tired?
Why don't you go to the bathroom
and wash your face,
you'll become fresh.
You'll feel better.
Shiva?
The door seems stuck.
Try to open it from that side.
Shiva, are you listening?
Shiva?
Shiva!
Dhara!
Okay, I'll go check.
Don't worry.
Hey, Mr. Rastogi,
where are you headed?
Mr. Rastogi,
Dhara hasn't been discharged yet.
You can't take her with you.
Mr. Rastogi, listen
Shiva! Shiva!
Why didn't you stop him?
- Mr. Nadar!
- Rickshaw!
Good morning.
Papa, where are we going?
We were supposed to
watch the finale on TV.
We'll catch it.
Let's go.
Come on, come on.
Hi.
Seat belt off. Come.
Be careful.
Yes.
Let's go, baby.
Okay?
Hey! Shiva!
Idiot!
The doctor said
not to take Dhara out.
What are you doing?
How are you going to survive
if something happens to her?
Didn't you say that
I've never let Dhara fall?
I won't let her fall today either.
Mom please, help me get into
India's Superstar Dancer.
And these are our top four finalists
who are going to battle it out today.
So let the dance begin!
Complete blackout.
Standby.
Roll camera.
It's not about winning or losing.
It's about performing
on the finale stage.
A spotlight shines on you.
All the background noise fades.
Nothing exists, apart from you.
No matter how many ups and downs
you've faced in life.
Nothing else matters anymore.
All that matters is you
And your dance.
You're nervous
and excited at the same time.
You feel many emotions at once.
A rainbow of emotions.
How can I
Leave you and go
You're the only
Home I know
This world is a giant cage
You're my sky, my safe space
O Papa, let's go hide someplace
Where they can't snatch me away
All my heart wants is to be with you
And stay wrapped in your embrace
Your heartbeat whispers to me
Stay brave
There's nothing to fear
I follow in your footsteps
You pave the way for my dreams
Promise me you'll take care
And remember I'm always there
Flying across your open skies
O my Papa
O my Papa
O Papa, let's go hide someplace
Where they can't snatch me away
All my heart wants is to be with you
And stay wrapped in your embrace
How?
How do I look into your eyes?
I don't have the heart to say goodbye
How?
How do I look at you in vain?
Knowing I can't ease your pain
Before you shed a tear
My heart cries first
It feels as though my chest will burst
Your smile erases every sorrow I face
If only time froze right in this place
I want to be your wings
Fly off to a place far away
For I am your open sky
Don't ever be scared
For I'm always around
I'll never let go of your hand
All I want is to be by your side
You're forever my love and pride
Hear my plea
O Mighty One
Let my cries
Pierce through the din
Alter the wheels of fate
I beg
Don't destroy
My whole world within
Why this insistence, O Lord
To play with
Innocence this way
She's all
I ever asked you for
Why rob me like this
Of the greatest gift you gave?
