Tu Bol Na (2025) Movie Script

Please be seated.
Why do you stand?
We'll whisk you away
to a far-off land.
He's our master and
we're his slaves.
Or we rule him and
he's our knave.
We are his intuition.
We fret about his decisions.
Hi! Where have you reached?
I'm getting further delayed.
Stuck in traffic. Be there soon.
More delayed? I've already
been waiting for two hours.
Can't help it! There's Metro
construction work going on.
Listen, shall we meet later then?
Or tomorrow?
No, nolet's meet today.
Or else my family will be annoyed.
You know how it is
Let's meet today itself.
Where is it?
Thank you Sorry
Thank you!
Where is it?
Sorry!
Where is it?
I've got to find it.
Maybe... in this pocket
Do you need help?
It's there Can't find it
- What?
The packet
- What packet?
I've been meeting girls for six years.
I'm still unmarried!
So, Gudgude Maharaj gave me
holy ashes in a packet.
I brought it along today.
But now I can't find it.
How can I meet the girl
without the ashes?
I have an appointment
with a girl right now!
Oh May I help? Sometimes
somebody else finds it sooner.
Have a look!
What a mess!
Hey! This is it.
- Oh! This is the one?
Yes!
- There!
Thank you so much!
Hi. I'm Hrishikesh.
- Hi.
Thank you! Oh my God!
I smell hookah flavour
Yes.. Gudgude Maharaj
Hi!
- I'm here.
Coming.
Bye.
Hello? Sure. Do come.
I'm at the coffee shop.
You'll see me right away.
Yes, come here. Bye.
Madhavi!
- Shlok!
Hi! Finally, we meet!
Finally! Shlok, I wanted
to ask you if
Madhavi!
Hrishikesh?
- Yes
You know each other?
No. We met in the washroom.
But, you...
We're here to discuss marriage
No no!
We're here to discuss marriage
You?
Actually, I've caused the confusion.
Please, have a seat... both of you!
We had planned to meet at three.
- Yes.
But I got delayed.
I had already planned
to meet Hrishikesh at five.
So, here's what I thought.
We're all meeting for
the same purpose.
Then why not meet together?
I mean, if you don't mind
I have no problem.
It's a unique idea.
What about you?
What's your name?
Your name
- Uh Shlok
Zoom in.
Zoom a little.
Zoom in now.
Zoom Zoom a bit.
Zoom Zoom in!
Zoom Zoom a little.
Zoom Zoom!
Zoom Zoom!
Zoom Zoom a bit.
Zoom in now.
Zoom a little.
Zoom Zoom!
Zoom a bit.
Zoom in now.
A little more.
Zoom Zoom!
Zoom Zoom!
This is the room
inside Shlok's mind.
The matter is quite simple,
you know.
There's a tiny space
between 'Yes' and 'No'.
This is the space.
Where the runaway thoughts pause.
This is the space.
Where the runaway thoughts pause.
This is the 'Yes-Man'.
Shlok's mind is a fertile space.
Where I plant a crop of yes-es.
Shlok's mind is a song of the sky.
Where happily the yes-es fly.
Shlok's mind is a confused mess.
Don't worry honey, we're the yes-es.
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah!
Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah! Oh Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah!
Oh Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah!
Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah! Oh Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah!
The matter is quite simple,
you know.
There's a tiny space
between 'Yes' and 'No'.
Zoobi Doobi Doobi
Doobi Doobi Doobi!
This is the space.
Where the runaway thoughts pause.
This is the space.
Where the runaway thoughts pause.
This is the 'No-Man'.
That is Shlok!
Calls me 'No-Man'.
Acts first, thinks later!
Nothing's right. It's full of stress.
It's all an illusion. The world's a mess.
In the garb of virtue comes greed.
Stupid boy, pay heed!
Hey 'No-Man'
That's quite enough
No! No No! No, Oh No!
No No! No No! No No! No, Oh No!
No! No No! No, Oh No!
No! No No! No, Oh No!
No No! No No! No No! No, Oh No!
No! No No! No, Oh No!
And me?
'Yes-No Man' is the name!
Keeping the balance is my game!
The 'Yes-No Man'!
Sometimes on his side.
And sometimes, on his.
Don't fight please.
Let me handle this.
Basically, balance!
The 'Yes-No Man'!
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah!
Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah! Oh Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah!
No! No No! No, Oh No!
No No! No No! No No! No, Oh No!
No! No No! No, Oh No!

Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah! Oh Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah! Oh Yeah!
No! No No! No, Oh No!
No No! No No! No No! No, Oh No!
No! No No! No, Oh No!
The matter is quite simple.
THIS is the space between 'Yes' and 'No'.
You're late today!
Traffic! Takes an hour
for a five-minute distance.
Right.
I feel I should relocate.
Add to that the meetings
for the 'arranged' marriage!
Let's not talk of that please!
My life's turned bizarre
thanks to those meetings!
What's wrong?
- Don't ask!
I had to buy a life insurance
policy today.
I had to shell out Rs. 5000.
Calm down!
Tell me properly.
Your name
Uh... Shlok
When Shlok asks you questions,
I can check if I've covered them all.
It'll be useful to me later.
It'll be great if we get married.
But, in case we don't,
I can make a note
Is that OK?
- Of course! Absolutely fine.
Great Shall we begin?
Before that, just sign on these forms.
Right away.
What's this?
- An Agreement.
It's a life insurance policy.
The premium is very low.
Oh! I already have life insurance.
Just sign it. This is the best policy.
I'm sure you don't have this one.
It's quite like this one.
Listen, if you suddenly die,
then I
I mean, if we get married,
I'll get a hefty sum and later
Madam, you haven't mentioned
this in your profile.
Because I've only just begun this.
- Alright!
Why don't you sign?
Yes.
- Go on, sign it.
So, I've not edited my profile yet.
I'll do it now.
No problem!
You've signedgood.
Come on, you too sign it.
I will gladly sign it.
But I have a doubt.
What is covered under this policy?
Listen, it covers accidental
insurance too.
And if you a pre-existing illness,
just mention it on the form.
Hyper-acidity?
No, not that. But, a heart attack,
or any major illness, mention it...
I like her.
- I can't stand her.
He's signed the paper.
- What's the rush?
He's here to meet the girl
- Or buy a policy?
She's talking of the premium!
After you're gone
After you pass on
Doesn't speak of anything
other than death!
I think she's nice! She is the one!
Let's say 'Yes' to her!
You've gone crazy! Totally lost it!
Why do you speak like this?
Well qualified! So hard-working!
Look at her bio data!
Every month she changes her field!
What will this fickleness yield?
She's concerned for her husband!
That's why she sells him a policy!
Let him first don the 'husband' hat!
Why does she want the sign
before that?
The investigation is done.
Now fix a direction.
What's it going to be?
Yes or No?
Give him a push.
Let the tortoise become the hare.
What's it going to be?
Yes or No?
Why the confusion? Don't drag it!
Decide fast!
What's it going to be?
Yes or No?
The investigation is done.
Now fix a direction.
What's it going to be?
Yes or No?
What about Radha?
I have four younger siblings.
I am the sole breadwinner.
My uncle and aunt have raised
us with love and care.
I will be indebted to them
forever.
I have always dreamt of
a happy married life
with eyes wide open.
Suddenly I met you and
found my perfect partner!
Time flew while chatting with you!
It's been a while.
Don't you have to leave?
You've come to know me so well
in such a short span of time!
I'm eager to meet you again soon.
I'm going to buy groceries
on my way home.
Oh no!
- What's wrong?
I forgot my wallet!
What'll I do? Uncle will scold me!
Aunty will be furious!
Shh! I'll give you the money.
You must buy the groceries!
The investigation is done.
The direction is set.
It's a No!
A very firm No!
With a push, the tortoise
has become the hare.
It's a No!
A very firm No!
I wasn't aware she wanted
to buy the whole shop!
Who sets you up with these girls?
Mom! Who else!
These girls are suggested by acquaintances.
So, I can't avoid meeting them.
Do you really want to
get married in this fashion?
I don't know. I didn't find
anybody on my own.
Then Mom said let's sign up
on a matrimonial site.
I refused.
So, she signed up.
Nobody has ever asked me
if I even want to get married.
In fact, I didn't even know that
not getting married is an option.
Mom has the last word in our family.
Oh! What about your father?
He's afraid of Mom.
- Really?
Tell me if you need any help.
I could come home to talk with him.
Not for marriage, but
I want help for my business.
Help for your business?
The business owned
by my great father
What business is this?
I had told you before.
He makes anti-virus software.
Yes! You had told me!
You are the CEO of that company.
I'm sure you must be
enjoying your job.
Absolutely not!
My father's business
needed an heir...
Bye!
- Wait! The business needed an heir.
So, I was brought into this world.
Then he expanded the business.
Now he's no longer
interested in it.
So, it's fallen to me.
But I'm not interested either.
Exactly what are you interested in?
What do you want to do with your life?
I know that I don't want to do this.
I want to go far away.
And then you'll do
- That's not the point.
I'm facing problems in the business.
I'll forward some emails to you.
Please go through it and
help me out if you can.
What's the matter?
What is it?
My phone
It's vibrating.
Please! Please!
It's vibrating!
Hmm.
What is it?
- I'm leaving. The wife called.
Listen to me. It's good that
you can't find a suitable girl.
Tell your family that
you won't get married.
What about leaving the company?
I didn't say anything about that.
You must meet my family once.
My father switches sides
in an instant.
You're speaking of your father.
Mind it!
Meet him once.
You'll know.
Leave now.
I'm going to pay, anyway.
I know. That's why
I called for the bill.
You know that I won't
accept any excuses.
- Look how nice these books are!
- Yes.
They're all for you.
Take them. Bye!
Bye!
Yes. Bye!
What's up?
- I'm fine. Look at these.
Nice! Who gave you these?
That girl who just left.
You plan to study?
Yes. Because she
teaches very well.
Is that so?
- Yes.
What's her name?
Wonder Woman.
Wonder Woman?
Yes. That's what she told me.
Where's your key?
Right here.
Right here! Don't act smart!
Mom's asleep?
- Yes, she is.
I'm going to bed now.
I've had a bit much.
Why do you drink so much then?
- What?
Why do you drink so much
if you can't handle it?
Dad!
Good night!
- Bye. Good night!
Good morning!
- Good morning!
When did you return last night?
Since when do people say this
in response to 'Good morning'?
Don't act smart!
I called you so many times.
You didn't receive a single call.
How could he?
He's meeting girls!
Exactly! Shouldn't he tell us
what he thinks of them?
Mom, bye!
- Hey! Where are you off to?
I'm leaving our home.
Drink tea, answer my questions,
and then leave home for the day.
Like you do every day.
This is why I don't switch on
the TV in the morning.
This is very entertaining.
Carry on.
Ma'am clothes for ironing
Mangal! Give him the clothes.
- What?
- Hangover gone?
- Hmm.
- Clothes! Give him the clothes!
- Yes!
So?
- What?
You didn't like a single girl?
Mom, I like them both.
I'll pick one by doing
Eeny-Meeny-Miny-Moe.
Or you can decide which one.
The life insurance policy or
the devotional TV channel?
After all, we're doing all this
for you!
The other day I've registered his
name on mazimatrimony.com
Mom!
- Such lovely options on that site!
I've liked one girl very much.
I've contacted her parents.
We're going to meet them next week.
We ARE going?!
I'm just asking.
Mom, who's the girl?
What does she do?
A photo?
Some information?
Haven't we set a pattern now?
Let's follow it!
Alright. Give me that.
Rajesh! Hand me my phone!
Here. Take a look.
- Manava Abhyaknar.
- She's from Pune too.
Ma'am, twenty clothes. Note it.
- Twenty
Why?
- Won't hurt to meet once
- This is the one.
- Are you sure?
- Yes. Look at the name.
- Of course.
This is the right house.
Abhyankar. No other house in this name.
- Come on now! Move it!
Abhyankar?
Yes.
- Hello!
I'm Rajesh Patwardhan
So?
So?
You're looking for a groom
for your girl
I have a bitch.
I'm looking for a partner to mate her.
Do you have one?
Aren't you Vilas?
Ulhas.
So sorry!
Sorry Sorry!
- Let's go.
Hello.
- This is Rajesh Patwardhan.
Where have you reached?
Hello! Actually, we're lost!
- Oh no! You're lost?
- Where are you now?
We're outside the
Abhyankar bungalow
opposite Lakshmi Co-operative
Housing Society.
Oh no! You're there?
- Yes.
Oh God! You've gone off
in the wrong direction!
Come further down
Down?
You'll see a bungalow called 'Shreepad'.
- Alright.
Then, take a right turn.
- OK
No, no take a left
Right turn or left?
Actually, I muddle up left and right
When I say turn left
it actually means right.
Is that so?
- Rajesh...
What is it?
He gets confused between left and right!
Excuse me?
Sorry! Could you please repeat?
So, take a right turn.
You'll see a Hanuman temple,
or is a Ram temple?
No! It's a Maruti Car showroom!
Hold on!
Do you mean temple or showroom?
Showroom. Definitely.
Then take a right turn.
That means left, right?
No, no I'm concentrating
and telling you the correct address.
Further ahead you'll see
the paper mart
This is so chaotic!
- Truly!
Then take a left
Wait, I'll send my son to fetch you.
Thank you! Thank you!
Where do we go
from the main road?
Hey Nuts... MIHIR!
What are you up to?!
What's this?
They're waiting at
Lakshmi Housing Society.
Another prospective groom?
- None of your business!
Nuts! I'll whack you now!
- Go, get them here.
Did you tell him the name?
Does he know whom to look for?
What's the name?
Patwardhan!
- Nuts! Listen, Nuts!
Rajesh Patwardhan!
- Forgot to tell you the name!!
It's been half an hour, Mom!
Let's just go home.
Or Dad, pray to God and follow
the directions he gave you.
Praise be to God!
- Let's move.
Manu... Manu...
Hurry up Manu!
They'll be here in ten minutes.
Welcome. Please, come in.
They're here. Come out quickly.
Have a seat.
- Yes, yes.
You're here... Hello!
- Hello!
I'm Manava's mother.
Please be seated.
I'll get some water.
Sorry I messed up while
telling you the address!
No problem.
I don't see Nuts.
What?
Should we have brought along
Yes Didn't you find
We weren't asked to
Were we?
No
Else we would have.
Why do you need to be told?
How did you reach here?
I followed the exact opposite of
your directions, and we reached here.
You actually found the address
that I gave?!
Yes!
- Without Nuts?
How funny! Do they sell nuts
to locate an address nowadays?
Have some water.
I don't see Nuts!
I'll go and get
But how would you know
where he is?
What do you mean by
'where HE is'?
HE Nuts My son
Nuts... Nuts...
- Say Mihir
Yes, yes Mihir Nuts
His pet name is Nuts
You thought it was actual nuts?
Yes!
- Oh my!
Nonetheless, we don't mind
going to look for him either.
Oh no, no.
- Rajesh!
No, no. He'll find his way back.
Where's Manava?
- I'll get her.
I'm here.
- Oh...
I've brought tea.
Hello! Hi! Hi!
- Manu, wait a minute Manu
Hello! Hi!
- Hello... Hi...
Let me touch your feet!
- No, it's alright.
Ma told me that I must.
- How nice.
Hey!
- Your keys have fallen down.
Oh!
You thought
I'm touching your feet?
Please be seated.
Should I serve the tea?
- No, its fine.
You'll serve yourself?
OK.
Hi!
- Hi.
Ma, Papa! I found them!
They were refusing to come.
My four friends and I
made them come.
- Who'll get married to her?
- Nobody wants to even meet her!
What's this now?
- Come forward
I'm Hrishikesh.
- Hrishikesh?!
Shlok!
You know each other?
- Yes.
How?
Once we met that girl who sold
life insurance policies
Leave it!
Hrishikesh, what are you doing here?
This boy forced us to come!
- What?
In fact, we were on our way
to meet another girl.
But this fellow said
his house is on the way.
So, we thought 'let's
meet this girl as well'.
Is this the girl?
Yes.
Hello!
Slide over a bit.
- Quickly sit down.
Wait! There's some confusion.
Another family is already
here to meet our daughter.
Good!
They couldn't find the address.
But now they are here.
Yes, we are.
But we could do this together
Like last time
Shlok?! You're sharing
your meetings with girls?
No Mom!
- It was just once.
And the advantage was
Listen! Why don't you
give them your number?
They'll call you once we're done.
Then you can come.
Then we'll wait outside.
- Right!
NO! I mean, let's do this later.
Not now please.
I'll call you tomorrow.
- Tomorrow...
Should we leave?
I'll call. Definitely. Goodbye.
Let it go.
This is the card. It has his photograph.
And here are other details.
Give one to them too.
You take one too.
- I'll give...
We have a son!
- Alright. Goodbye!
- See you!
- Leave it now. Bye bye.
- Come on. Let's go.
- Come now.
- Mom! You miss all the...
Sorry!
- good girls!
- What did I do?
Sorry!
- I'm really sorry! This was quite odd.
That's trueQuite odd!
But it's alright.
Well but
Oh! The tea has gone cold!
Have it, please.
- NO! I'll heat it up.
It's OK.
- It's cold. I'll heat it.
Ah! You're a trekker.
- Yes.
Nice. Different profession.
- Truly. So, what exactly do you do?
Nothing. Just mount
Huh?
Mountain climbing!
Climbing various peaks.
Then she writes about it.
She's a travel blobler.
Huh?
Travel globler
Bobbler.
Travel blobbler
Travel blogger!
Yes She's that
Shlok, why don't the two
of you have a chat?
Then we can leave.
Manu
- Come.
Manu listen
- We're going upstairs.
Sure.
- Manu... listen...
Yes.
- What?
Yes, yes.
I can't help but laugh!
Do you want a travel blobbler
daughter-in-law?
- Father-in-law was quite something!
- But the girl was quite sweet.
Wasn't she overdressed, though?
You draped a saree over this, Manu?!
- Hmm.
Why? And why had you
worn so much jewellery?
If I wasn't looking pretty
despite all the jewellery
you should argue with Papa
about whom I have taken after!
Don't you dare give me
that attitude!
It's not about how you look, dear
One moment! She's being rude.
Don't respond innocently!
Calm down!
- What 'calm down'?
Vilas you couldn't say
'travel blogger' properly?
It's difficult - 'travel blogger'!
Why do you even speak about a field
that you know nothing about?
Ma, don't scold Papa!
Instead, tell her.
Choose a profession that
everybody can pronounce!
Doctor or Engineer for example!
- You stay out of this!
Nuts, I'm going to thrash you!
- Should've done it in his childhood.
Should've married her off as a child.
We wouldn't be suffering now!
Don't hit him! Don't
- Oversmart chap! Just you wait!
You ought to have hit him!
- Don't hit him! It will hurt!
Both take after their mother!
- Open the door!!
Try saying 'travel blogger'
ten times instead.
Hello Sir!
- Hello.
Hello Sir!
- Hello.
How are you?
- Wonderful. How are you?
I'm fine too.
Anything else?
- The usual.
The usual? OK.
What's bugging you?
Did you meet a girl today?
Please!
Why is your mood off?
Did you like her?!
No
I mean
Huh?
But it's of no use.
What is it?
I went to her room.
Oh! Sorry the curtains
- It's OK.
Oh yes.
- Sorry my slippers
Should we?
What?
Start!
Start what?
The session!
If you want to reject me,
just say so.
No need to do all this.
I've been observing you
for a while
You're enjoying
all the weird things.
Good.
Good because I read you correctly?
Very good, actually.
So, what's your email ID?
I've just sent you an email.
Check it out.
She had made a
detailed presentation
She had even mentioned
her sizes in it!
She was trying her best
to put me off.
She's quite a girl!
What did you talk about
after that?
Then she asked me
Are you a virgin?
Umm
Is that a 'Yes' or a 'No'?
Umm
- You don't remember?
No!
- You started but couldn't finish?
I think we're done talking
about important things.
My parents will communicate
our response to your parents.
Hey! Why don't you tell me now
that you don't like me?
This is the fifth time
you've blinked at me.
What're you up to? You want
to wink at me, but can't?
Or is it a birth defect?
Of all the girls I've ever met,
you are the most perverted.
Thank you!
Yet I can't hear a thing.
Nor can I see anyone behind you.
Huh?
Let some things remain
unknown to you too!
Just a minute.
Thank you!
Bizarre! Crazy!
But very interesting!
You have been mulling over this all day
instead of having a hearty laugh?
As if you want to marry her!
Or do you want to?
OK One question has
plagued me all day.
Which question?
You know...
When I meet girls,
I see something.
As if my gut feelings
are speaking to me.
They tell me how that girl is.
Whether she's truthful or lying.
Based on that I decide whether
to accept the proposal or not.
All the girls I rejected so far
This was the basis. Get it?
I mean...
I can see the background.
I see something behind the girl.
I've always seen it.
Except Manava.
She was being as rude and
obnoxious as she could be.
But I couldn't see anything
behind her.
I wasn't getting a single clue.
That's why I'm confused
about what this is.
I mean... I...
Judging from what you're
telling me, I feel that you
No, I don't.
I mean, it's of no use.
Why?
Because she definitely
doesn't want to get married.
Darkness has fallen.
The city is asleep.
Has thinking all night
yielded nothing?
This doesn't usually happen.
There's always an outcome.
Even after switching off everything,
how does the 'Manava' light shine bright?
Are we all fatigued handing out
rejections all the time?
Manava doesn't want to get married.
Yet are we waiting for her?
We try reading but can't.
Or we don't read at all.
Is this the book with a folded page
close to the heart?
Anyway!
New day, new book.
Even if the chapter is the same.
Fresh water, soil and tree.
The leaf is still the same.
Float new boats in
the fresh new water.
Finding a mate
is no laughing matter.
Fed up of looking but
the search doesn't end.
This fellow's constant presence
is driving me round the bend!
Demand an explanation.
What is the answer?
Somebody stop him!
The way a cat follows a laser,
this chap follows me around!
I'm stalking you.
Your choice is excellent.
He's glued to me!
What a weirdo!
What's in my mind?
How does he know?
I've searched all over,
but I can't find the one!
No matter what I do,
my luck doesn't turn!
The investigation is done.
Now fix a direction.
What's it going to be?
Yes or No?
Give him a push.
Let the tortoise become the hare.
What's it going to be?
Yes or No?
Hi
Hi.
I thought you didn't want to marry.
You're right.
And I'd also thought that your
choice would be excellent.
Forget about mine.
Your choice is snoring.
My...
Baby, I think
your mobile is vibrating.
No. That girl is snoring.
I'm watching.
- Hmm.
Had she said 'let's go to a great place
for a couple of hours'?
Yes.
There must be a power failure
at her place.
It's Thursday today.
She must have a large family.
Probably no space to sleep at home.
OK.
You've figured out
everything about my date.
Now tell me about yours.
This is my latest policy.
I accept the most bizarre proposal
that I receive.
I date him for a few weeks.
I get him to do all my chores.
Then I tell my family that
I'd like to marry him.
My family gets scared.
They convince me how
he is inappropriate for me.
Then they leave me alone
for the next couple of weeks.
And this is chap number?
Superb!
Why aren't you chatting with me?
You're here with me
Sorry! But, I'm talking about you.
- Hmm.
He's jealous.
We look good together.
- Hmm.
It's early morning. The golden dawn
slowly unfolds before my eyes.
Under a hundred-year-old wise tree
I'm doing the thing I most like.
I'm writing.
Nagzira! One my most
favourite places.
They say,
you can gain as much knowledge
from a jungle
as you can from a book.
You can experience it, live it.
I wonder what the wind
is saying to the leaves.
Perhaps it's telling the tree
of the happenings in the jungle!
I try to listen.
But their language eludes me.
I think it must be one of the
languages that have become extinct.
The language of silence.
Suddenly the tree shakes and sheds the
sadness of the night from its leaves.
The earth beneath my feet
becomes wet.
I gently scrape it with my toenail.
The touch of the earth is so soothing!
The vast expanse of water before me
could be called 'Silence'.
A flock of clouds floats over it
at a distance.
Ensuring that it doesn't disturb
the water's meditative state.
Just then a leopard comes to drink water.
He disturbs that meditative state
to quench his thirst.
He casts a glance at me once
and goes on to ignore me.
Often, my family behaves
like this when I'm writing.
They too have absolutely
no curiosity about my life.
Wonder Woman!
When the noise within the sound-proof
cement walls becomes unbearable
I go away to look for the
peace that is rightfully mine.
Alone.
Hi
Hi!
Here too?
- What?
Meeting a girl
Meeting a girl?
What is this look?
A look of respect!
If a man can meet a new girl
with the same enthusiasm
and excitement each time
I have always felt immense love,
affection, respect etc. For such a man.
You're one of those men So
Why are you here?
Just like that
A random visit
To Garudmachi?
- Yes.
They don't let you visit randomly.
OK! I'm not here to meet you
or convince you to marry me.
So, I'll be greatly obliged if you lower
your defences and speak normally.
Wow!
OK... OK!
Sorry.
Hi!
Hi.
May I sit?
You're going to sit on
the stone, right?
Then ask for its permission.
A stone sitting on a stone!
You're quite the devil.
You bet I am.
Didn't you realise it
when you met my family?
It's difficult to beat you
at speaking.
All else too.
- Huh?
It's difficult to beat me
at anything.
Let's see.
Race!!!
Don't laugh! Please don't!
I haven't lost face
so badly before!
Then why did you run?
To race against you.
- Ew!
It's OK.
Hmm to race against me
Come let's race.
- Huh?
Race!!!
She'll be back.
Woohoo! Come, come!
She won't be back!
Hey Wait!
So, one should get married to get
society's stamp of approval?
Millions of people want
society's stamp of approval.
It's important to them.
Yes, and one girl out of those millions
will become your wife.
So, congratulations to you!
In advance.
So, you will never fall in love?
I'm against marriage, not love.
You've never fallen in love before?
We've just met!
Aren't you getting too personal?
OK. Sorry. Don't tell me.
- I wasn't going to.
You're terrible.
So, you want to return home?
Did I say that?
Then do you want to eat fritters?
- And tea.
Come.
- You get delicious fritters here.
- Is that so?
It did seem like it would rain.
Spring showers.
Let it loose
This is where the activities are done.
This is Vikya.
- Hi.
That's Kaivalya.
- Hi.
Uncle... how are you?
This is Shlok, my friend.
- Hi.
Hi Shlok.
- Surendra Chavan.
He has conquered Mount Everest.
He oversees all the activities here.
So, rappeling?
- No, no!
- Come, come
- Don't be scared
- Place your foot on the left.
- Well done
So, Mr. Big Shot
CEO of Antivirus company
What do you want to do
with your life?
I want to get away from this chaos.
To a peaceful place.
Let's say mountains.
I'll have a small house there.
Live with my partner.
Where we can grow our food.
People might think of this
as unambitious.
You too might laugh at it.
No!
I'm wondering what you're still
doing in your father's company.
I don't know.
You'll find the answer some day.
Nuts!
Really not!
Sis is here!
Hey!
Fantastic, Manu!
Congratulations!
Come closer to accept
our Congratulations!
What?
Aunty! Let go!
- Let her go!
Come and meet Grandma.
She's been waiting to see you.
Grandma's here?
Hi Grandma!
My darling little girl!
- Grandma! Enough!
I had told Vasanti, God will
certainly listen to my prayers.
Yesterday I prayed to Goddess Ambabai,
and today Vasanti gave the good news!
Ma-Papa, you're going
to have a baby in this age?
I don't mind at all!
- What nonsense, Vilas!
Congratulations!
Silly girl! The good news
is about your wedding!
Congratulations!
MY wedding?
Whose wedding then? Mine?
- Do you want to?
Brother was so happy that you finally
chose a boy to get married to!
Hold on! One minute!
Who have I chosen?
What a joke!
Sis, enough!
Stop pretending!
The cat is out of the bag now!
Ma, I'll beat him up
Wait, wait! And you, will you
stop irritating her?
OK!
In this regard you take after
your father's side of the family!
Nonsense!
- She didn't breathe a word to me!
WHAT are you talking about?
Mr. Shlok!
You should have told us
that you liked him!
We wouldn't have refused.
Ma, who said I like him?
He said so himself!
Yay!
We know it!
Caught you!
Admit that you like her.
- OK, OK, OK! I admit it!
- I like Manava!
We dance so well!
Dad! Don't laugh!
No, no! This is all too much!
What's all this?
- Look! So funny!
Mom, you recorded this
and checked my phone?
I was asking both of you last night,
What happened?
Both of you just kept laughing!
So, I checked your mobile
to find out.
Why? What was the need?
95% mothers of sons of marriageable
age check their son's phone.
Why don't you try to be
among the remaining 5%?
Why don't YOU get married
like those 95% boys?
Get married?!
You saw my photos with Manava
and sent them to her father!
That too from MY WhatsApp?!
- What else was I supposed to do?
My data pack was over. I don't
know the password to his phone.
I wonder why he needs to lock it!
Mom, you have no idea of
the ruckus that this could create!
Meet me in the caf.
We're talking!
- It's Manava's message.
So?
Very good!
Shlok!
Hi!
OK. Here's what happened
I already knew that
you are a complete idiot.
But it's been confirmed today.
You knew that my family is
desperate to get me married off.
Yet you told your parents.
Yesterday we spoke with extreme clarity
about my thoughts on marriage.
Yet you did this.
Just because we spent some time
together Garudmachi yesterday
you thought that now I'm yours?
I
- Till yesterday I felt nothing for you.
But now, I can't stand you!
In future, you won't be foolish
and try to meet me intentionally.
But if you do, I'll shoot you!
Got it?
Just hear me out first
No. Did you get me?
Whatever happened
It wasn't my fault
Maybe it wasn't.
Have I made myself clear?
Yes.
Bye.
- There she is.
- Nobody say a word to her.
- There's no point in talking to her.
- Really.
- It's such a bother.
- Truly troublesome.
- Leave it.
- I explained so many times!
- Ignore.
- Yes, just ignore.
- So true! This generation...
- Let's leave now.
Whatever she does,
we have to let it go?
- Don't say a word to her.
- We're leaving.
What's wrong, Grandma?
- The wedding is off.
Whose wedding?
- Yours!
When was it finalised?
Had I agreed?
Enough with the melodrama, Grandma!
What is wrong with you people?
Why are you sitting in the dark?
Hey! Ma!
What is it?
Mother, enough. She'll get angry.
Mother!
Good morning!
- Morning!
Who did she speak with?
Hello!
- Hello...
You're Vilas' daughter, right?
- Yes.
Come, child. I'm Shrikant Telang.
I live in the next lane.
What brought you here?
- The bodyhas it arrived?
Body?
- Yes! Your father's body
What nonsense! And
when did you come in?
I was going for a walk.
I saw a crowd here.
There was deathly silence.
I came in and sat there.
I thought Vilas passed away.
- What?!
He's only gone out.
- So, he's not 'gone'?
No! He's just gone out.
Extremely sorry!
I'll go now, child.
The door's this way
- But I came in from here. Bye!
- Who are these people?
- What are they saying?
Wow! This is unbelievable!
- I knew nothing!
You knew nothing!
You're horrible!
Listen, I really
- All of you! You're awful!
- Awful! Really! Ma, please!
- Manava... but...
Random people are coming
in the house!
Hey! Where are you going
with the toothbrush?
To live my life.
And this is all I need.
Manava, stop!
Turn back!
When are you going?
Where?
Back to your place?
When you go to your rightful place.
THIS is my place!
No.
Grandma, please go tomorrow.
I can't leave Vasanti's side
in this condition!
This condition?!
You...
Impossible!
- Manava
Are you people out of your mind?
You're telling people
that I've passed away?
Where are you off to?
To the funeral.
Coming?
Whose funeral?
- Manava, listen Manava
Who has passed away exactly?
- Manava, listen
Just because we don't say anything,
you can't behave as you please!
Come back! Manava!
Don't you have the key?
Will you have coffee?
Shall I tell my family
that we're dating?
I guessed this was the reason!
Then they'll badger us
to get married.
Then let's.
What wrong with me?
It's not easy to handle you.
Then at least adopt me!
Let me have different parents!
Calm down, madcap!
Chewed your brains, did they?
- A lot!
You're going to stay over?
- Why? Any problem?
Yes! I'm replacing the toilet. It's been
under construction since three days.
Taking a dump will be an issue.
What've you done for three days?!
Paper! You know
I'm a trekker.
Abhi, please!
Seriously?!
I'm going to the upstairs neighbours,
silly girl!
Hi!
- Ma's called you home.
Coming in two minutes.
- Ha! Joke!
She's called Sis.
- Of course!
How did you know I'm here?
Where else?
I know all your haunts.
Nuts, I let you live since
you're my younger brother.
Shall I tell them
you're hiding here?
Name your price.
It's a risky job.
One more filmy dialogue
and you're dead.
Rs. 4000.
Rs. 20.
We can't negotiate like this.
- Hey!
Rs. 2000.
Send it online.
Aren't you ashamed of
blackmailing your own sister?
In fact, you should be proud of me.
I've started earning
at such a young age.
Transfer the money soon.
You...!
By the way, that boy's parents
had come home.
It was all his mother's fault.
She mucked up.
I actually thought
the boy was alright.
He was unaware about
his parents' actions.
I thought I should inform you.
Hey! Who are you talking about?
Shlok.
Broken Broken Broken
Inside
Intestine?!
- INSIDE!
Something that never was!
Something that never was!
Lost something
that I was holding on to
Something that never was!
Something that never was!
Hey! What the f&%?
Dad?!
Are you crazy? I could've fallen.
I could have died!
Really?
- Of course!
Weren't you planning to?
I thought you were going to jump.
So, I tried to help.
You're talking rubbish!
What are you doing here?
I felt like having a drink.
I decided to look for you.
I wanted to convince you
to have a drink with me.
No.
Leave it.
You had recently told me
You want to go far off
This is the time to do it.
Where should I go?
This time my gut is telling me.
Himalaya.
Himalaya!
Haiyya Ho!
Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!
We'll burn out.
But light up again.
It's not over,
even if we burn out.
The idol might go.
But the shrine is ours!
Don't fret. It's only a turn.
The real road lies ahead.
Keep moving!
Haiyya Ho!
Don't fret. It's only a turn.
The real road lies ahead.
Keep moving!
Haiyya Ho!
Haiyya Ho!
Haiyya Ho!
Keep moving!
Haiyya Ho!
Haiyya Ho!
Haiyya Ho!
Keep moving!
Haiyya Ho!
Hrishikesh!
Hi! I knew you were coming.
I'd seen your photograph.
So, I joined this batch.
All this is so difficult!
Why have you come for this trek?
My grandmother sent me.
She says marriage is pointless.
She doesn't think any girl
will marry me.
She believes I'm wasting
my time meeting so many girls.
She always tells me that
marriage can't the end-goal of life.
Great. Your grandmother
is very sensible.
How come your parents are like this?
- Huh
Sorry, sorry!
I know what you're getting at
No, no
No, no.
My grandmother
had adopted my father.
Oh!
So, we don't have her genes.
OK.
It seems my father's mission in life
is to get people married off.
He's arranged twenty-eight
marriages so far.
Really?
All successful.
That's nice.
Then speak to your father once.
- Leave it. Let's not talk of that.
I'm here to find mental peace.
- OK.
B 10, please assemble
in the camping area.
Uh.. B... I think they're calling us.
Yes... yes...
- They whistled?
Yes, yes, come.
Go on. I'll follow.
I'll need you to help me
- Ah, OK.
- Finally, I'm here.
- Yes.
A very good morning,
fellow campers!
Hope you all had
a very safe journey.
My name is Abhishek.
Her photo wasn't there!
But you can call me Abhi.
And this is my partner, Manava.
You can call herManava!
So, we are going to be
leading this trek, both of us.
- Twelve twelve
- Say 'Twelve'
Your roll number is twelve.
What?
Say 'Twelve'!
What twelve?
Twelve...
- Correct.
- Thirteen... Fourteen
- Pay attention!
Didn't you hear the instructions!
You've been staring at Manava
for twenty minutes!
Did you get what he said?
- No.
What did he say?
- No idea...
You have free time now.
We'll meet at 1 o'clock for lunch.
Please go to your respective tents.
Thank you.
I'll take a nap.
No!
NO!!!
No! No!!!
NO!!!!!!!!!!
No!!!!!!!
No!!!!!!!
- NO!!!!!!!!!!
- NO!!!!!!!!!!
You are constantly looking
at Roll Number Twelve.
What's the scene?
Abhi, you remember numbers
but not names! You're weird!
Is this the same Shlok with
whom you had the fracas?
You didn't tell me!
- Even you didn't realise it.
Manava, you know I'm not
a mind-reader, right?
What's wrong with
your sense of humour?
You were quite fine till yesterday!
- I'm still fine!
Let's move it! Be quick!
The weather's turning bad!
It has just begun.
Today's walk is intentionally slow.
We're getting acclimatized
to this weather.
Acclimatization with the people,
not the weather.
Anyway, we should be prepared.
Why are you wearing this?
I will be easily spotted.
Always be safe. Want one?
No.
- Come on, come on!
- Are you tired?
Come quick food's ready.
Come! Come here!
Come on, come on.
Do you think he
followed you here?
No. Definitely not.
It's a coincidence.
Really?
Then, do you realise Manava
that the entire universe is
conspiring to bring you together?
Abhi, shut up!
Don't say a word! Please!
Why? Because that's exactly
what you're thinking?
Anyhow, what do
you feel about him?
I don't know.
Great! You've progressed
from 'No' to 'I don't know'!
Please!
It's clear that it's
written in the stars.
So, either you're terribly lucky,
or there's a fault in his stars.
Get lost!
You know how they sing
in jungles of Africa?
Go!
'Dhoom tuk Ooo loo loo loo loo'
I'll whack you!
'Dhoom tuk Ooo loo loo loo loo'
Abhi, just get lost!
'Dhoom pichack tuk
Ooo loo loo loo loo loo loo loo loo'
Batch, let's go to our next point.
Get your bags.
Hi.
Uh...
- Just a minute.
You're grossly mistaken.
If I had the slightest idea
that you're here
I'd have left this trek.
Even the country!
I have zero interest
in following you!
It's not my fault.
Even that day it wasn't.
Listen
- I agree, my mother was at fault.
But it's the problem
of her generation.
And there's nothing wrong in wanting
your son to get married at the right age.
She was hasty, I admit.
But they're older.
We must respect them.
And one more thing
Don't utter a single rude word.
It's annoying as hell.
I came here to escape
thinking about you.
And you turn up here!
Er...
Er...
- I won't go anywhere. You go.
I'm not afraid of anybody.
Not even you. You go.
OK.
- OK!
OK.
Hang on
Why had you come here?
To apologise.
I had also come to call you.
The entire batch has gone up.
So, now you only have me
to help you find your way there.
So, if you're done saying
your soliloquy, shall we leave?
Huh?
Damn!
Uh...
Manava, I'm
- It's OK.
Thanks!
Uh... OK.
So You like trekking!
Thanks Yes, I like trekking.
Nice.
What else do you like?
You really want to know?
This way or the other,
I'm going to get bored.
So, I thought... why not?
I don't want to tell you.
- I'm sorry! OK?
It's OK.
- OK, I'll be nice to you.
Is it even possible?
- I'll try to behave.
I don't think you can.
- Seriously?
You... and me...
Like sunlight sparkling through the mist.
Like perfectly fitted jigsaw pieces.
You... and me...
Silently speak volumes with each other.
Like perfectly fitted jigsaw pieces.
You're the path.
You walk with me.
You're my shade
in the blazing Sun.
You are the calm.
You are the storm.
Speak with me.
Break down the barriers.
Don't be distant. Come close.
Open your heart to me.
Speak with me.
Manava, speak with me.
Don't be distant. Come close.
How are you so unique?
Tell me!
Break down the barriers.
Don't be distant. Come close.
Open your heart to me.
Speak with me.
Manava, speak with me.
Don't be distant. Come close.
How are you so unique?
Tell me!
- Let's go, let's go, let's go.
- Tired?
What's the matter?
- I can't come.
- What? Hrishikesh!
- I I can't
- You'll manage. Come.
- It's barely five minutes.
It's a very short distance.
- No No I'll die...
Abhi, move it. The weather's
bad Let's move!
Get the mule
- Mule? OK
He's faking it, guys!
We'll reach, man!
- Manava... Manava...
I have chest pains.
Chest pains? Not possible!
We've seen many people
I'm different.
- Since day one he's...
You're different?
Come, we'll take you there.
Abhi...
Manava, the weather's getting really bad.
You lead the batch.
I'll bring him.
You'll get stuck here.
- Please.
He's...
- Please. Please.
Everybody will get stuck. Go.
- Come, on batch. Let's hurry up.
You want to sit?
I'll call for the mule.
Shlok!
Can I get tea here?
- No.
Coffee?
- No.
Bourn...
Yay! The horse is here!
It's here!
My favourite animal!
Horsey!
My Tiger!
Oh my Horsey!
How do I climb?
- From here.
From here? Excellent! Lovely!
Come here. Hold this.
- I won't. You mount it.
You! Hold this.
- Mount the horse on your own.
Sit.
Are you calling me fat?
Customer is God!
You're calling God fat!
No! I'm going to sit on it.
No Sir, you can't.
What do you mean?
The horse is tired.
Let him figure it out.
He'll deal with it. Let's go.
Of what use is money if the horse is tired.
- No, noI want to sit
Then how will I go up?
- You'll have to walk up slowly.
- Don't do this to me!
- Listen I'll sit very lightly.
The horse won't even know it.
- No, Sir. The horse will collapse.
Let's negotiate.
So, when are you getting married?
Actually, we're already married.
Oh.
I mean, the family doesn't know.
You know Manava's parents
There would have been big trouble.
So, we had a court marriage.
Oh.
Congratulations!
Thanks, man.
In fact, we even have one son.
He's in boarding school in Panchgani.
I really miss him, man.
You're messing with me.
No.
I'm serious.
You're insanely in love
with my wife, aren't you?
No, no, no Nothing like that!
I'm sorry!
No misunderstanding, please.
It's not like that. Really.
Really, it's not like that.
We've been together
since kindergarten.
So, my dear friend,
if she decides to marry you
I'm going to be
a part of your dowry!
So, you think she
will like you.
Yeah.
I'll go sort that out.
Let's try once more
Hrishikesh Should we move?
Let's go.
- This horse just won't move!
- He's not going to come.
- You'll have to walk.
What?
I'm going to sue him.
Have you been to court?
He'd have brought you
if you hadn't fought.
Don't blame me for everything.
I haven't done anything.
Hey! Hey!
What happened?
- You're here.
Careful!
- I fell.
Where does it hurt?
- I guess I twisted my ankle.
You sprayed the muscle relaxant?
- Yes. Didn't work.
Shlok!
Alright. Take rest.
Yes.
Is he here finally?
There's nothing left to be done.
So, I'm just hoping that
my foot won't hurt too much,
and I'll get to walk.
Otherwise we'll be in trouble.
Hi.
Hi.
Should I press it?
- What?
Your foot.
It's swollen.
It shouldn't be pressed.
Alright.
How're you feeling now?
Exactly!
This should've been
the first question.
Had I said, it's hurting, then the
next question was appropr
OK, Bye!
- So sorry, So sorry!
I was teasing you.
Sit down.
- Feels wonderful here!
- Hmm.
I feel I should settle down here.
What?
I'm trying to recollect the last time
you said this exact line.
Manava, it's easier said than done.
Easy and difficult are
subjective concepts.
That's why so many people
do difficult things quite easily,
and make easy things difficult!
How's your life?
Easy or difficult?
Want to have a look?
- Yes.
Does it hurt too much?
Hurts terribly.
- Slow down.
Easy.
Where are we?
Do you see that house?
- Hmm.
That's my life.
In a couple of years,
I'll be living there.
Tell me, is it easy or difficult?
It's beautiful.
- Come on.
- Take your bags and let's start.
Somebody come here...
Move it. We need to catch up
with the other people, Let's go.
Somebody come here...
- Come on, come on, come on!
- We don't want to miss the sunset.
Hi!
- Hi.
You're not coming?
No. My foot is still hurting.
It'll hurt even more if I walk a lot.
Oh, it's still hurting?
Yeah a little.
Oh! OK.
You're right.
So, when do we meet next?
Uh If at all we meet, I guess.
It'll only be back in Pune.
Oh. OK.
- Abhi will lead henceforth.
Oh. Superb.
OK?
- Yeah.
Shlok! Come on!
The batch is waiting for you.
Who? What?
- The batch waiting for you
Oh, yes, yes
Nice batch.
Bye!
Yes, yes. Bye-bye.
See you.
Enjoy!
- Thank you. See you. Bye.
Bye!
Let's rest a little further.
- This is more difficult than I thought.
- But it is so enjoyable!
This is too much, man!
Shlok! Shlok, what's wrong?
Feeling weird.
- Abhi Sir! Abhi Sir!
- Carry on.
- Shlok's taken ill!
What's the matter?
I don't know.
Feeling breathless.
Sit down.
Give it to me.
- Let's go there.
- It's in his bag.
Drink some water.
Thanks.
Your pulse rate is normal.
- Really? I don't know
Got a shooting pain in my stomach
and my muscles started aching.
Wait, what is it? Stomach-ache
or breathing trouble?
What exactly?
My entire body is aching!
Entire body is aching.
Let's check your blood pressure.
It's not that serious.
I'll rest here for a bit.
Once my legs stop aching,
everything will be fine.
Fine. Deepu will stay back.
I'll also call for a mule.
Or maybe I'll go down.
He's faking it!
Not at all!
- Yes, yes, yes!
He wants to go down
since Manava is there.
Just the way I faked it
for a horse...
He's faking it for Manava.
I know!
Yes, I know.
Shlok, tell me the truth.
Swear by your mother?
No, I'm really breathless
- Aha! You're lying! I know.
Is that so? Get up!
Hrishikesh...
- Yes?
You're a freaking genius, buddy!
Thank you.
Gang, let's go. Shlok is alright.
Shlok, Deepu will stay with you.
Go wherever you wish to.
- Come on gang.
- Let's get going.
- 'Dhoom tuk Ooo loo loo loo loo'
- Hey... Listen... Come here...
Does this chap know
how to guide the horse?
Deepu, let's go down.
- Alright.
Huh?
What happened?
I've reached the batch so fast?
Why is the batch so slow?
Madam he is feeling unwell.
I'm taking him down.
What happened?
Why did you come up?
I was going to come up anyway!
How could I leave the batch?
Some stuff had to be brought up
from the camp, so I
But why did you have to
That doesn't matter.
What's wrong with you?
I wasn't feeling well.
Feeling better now?
Yes.
Then do you want to go down or
Up.
- Up.
Come on people, we're going up.
Speak with me.
Break down the barriers.
Don't be distant. Come close.
Open your heart to me.
Speak with me.
Manava, speak with me.
Don't be distant. Come close.
How are you so unique?
Tell me!
Break down the barriers.
Don't be distant. Come close.
Open your heart to me.
Speak with me.
Manava, speak with me.
Don't be distant. Come close.
How are you so unique?
Bright blue dreams on green hills.
The eyes tell tales of love.
How do I solve our tangled puzzle?
My darling...
My mischief...
You are the journey, the sky,
the untrodden path.
You are contentment.
I am desire.
Speak with me.
Break down the barriers.
Don't be distant. Come close.
Open your heart to me.
Speak with me.
Manava, speak with me.
Don't be distant. Come close.
How are you so unique?
Speak with me.
Break down the barriers.
Come close.
We're going to do rappeling today.
Who will do it with me?
Speak with me.
Manava, speak with me.
Don't be distant.
Come close.
How are you so unique?
Speak with me.
Go down go down
Go down.
I can't. It got locked.
I locked it.
Why?
Will you come to live with me
in my home in the Himalayas?
You have every right to say no!
Me? I mean Why?
Because you are a fool!
Just a minute!
Are you proposing to me?
Yes!
Like this?
- Yes!
This is odd!
And you're mad!
I know that already.
Tell me if you're fine with it.
I don't love you.
The entire batch knows
that you love me, stupid!
Say it to me before the
whole world finds out.
Just say it!
- Say what?
I love you!
Say it!
- No. Let me come up first.
I'll leave you hanging here.
- No let me
Just say it, Shlok!
Just say it!
I love you!
- What?
Louder! Didn't hear you!
I LOVE YOU!!!
So, are we engaged?
- Yes.
Are we going to...
- tell our families.
No.
- No.
That's what I want too.
Manava, I have a thousand
reasons to like you.
Why did you like me?
I love you for the exact opposite
reasons why you love me!
You're whacky.
You're calm.
You are short-tempered.
You're sensible.
You're an explorer.
You're my companion.
You're spontaneous.
You're not.
- Huh?
You're romantic?
Is this a question or a statement?
You decide.
Whether to respond to it
or admit it?
This is my answer.
To all your questions.
The most important witnesses of
this moment are the five elements.
Sky Fire Air Water Earth
You and I.
I'll be with you.
No matter what.
I'll be there.
Ugh!
- Sorry!
How can your teeth chatter
at this moment?
It's getting colder.
And in this moment an
important element is going out.
So, sorry!
Will you marry me?
- Of course not!
Why do you want to get married?
Hi!
- Hrishikesh!
Thanks for everything.
What did I do?
He's thanking you for
not doing anything weird.
Correct.
- Manava!
Sorry!
- One more thing
We aren't going to tell our families.
So, you too...
Huh?
Huh?
- What?
Say something.
- What?
So?
Fine! Great! Chill! Superb!
We gave you six months' time
as you had requested.
How should we proceed now?
We agree to getting married
Really? Thank goodness!
- Fantastic! Congratulations!
Hold on! Just a minute!
But but we
- Manava, they didn't listen to me.
- What can I do?
Shlok, what do you mean,
'what can I do?'
We had decided
we won't get married.
It's just one signature, Manava.
What difference does it make?
I'm asking you again.
Why do you want to get married?
Because marriage unites two souls.
Forever.
Wow! In which book
did you read this line?
Can't these two souls
unite without marriage?
Maybe they can.
But it doesn't have this uh
Societal sanction.
- Correct!
Those two souls can unite but
it doesn't have societal sanction.
Good that you brought up 'society'.
- Then give me an answer!
- I will.
But first, tell me
what exactly is 'society'?
Society means people.
- Which people?
Seriously, you're asking
'which people?'
Yes.
- The people around us! Those people.
We should get married so that
'those people' believe in our relationship?
What about our belief
in our relationship?
No rush.
Take your time to respond.
I don't need time to think.
I can tell you.
Really? Tell me.
There are other considerations too.
For example, security.
Security?
That we won't leave each other
after marriage.
Then why is the divorce rate so high?
It isn't.
- It is!
No. It's not.
- It's too high.
OK. Very good. The rate
of divorces is high?
Let's say we separate.
After that, the property, tax
I'm not interested in your property.
- I know that.
I'm transferring my entire
property in your name.
What about tax...
As it is, I'm clueless about money.
I'm saying, it's convenient in tax
and internal transactions.
You want to marry me for convenience
in tax and internal transactions?
Bro, I need help outside.
- Yes!
Yes?
'Yes' to him!
Not to you.
Oh.
Just talking isn't enough, Manava.
There are other important things too!
Like what?
- Social security.
It doesn't exist anyway!
What difference does
one signature make?
What difference does
not signing make?
Society is habituated to marriage.
We used our hands
to wash our butts.
Then we started using jet sprays.
Now we use toilet tissues.
Habits change!
Why don't you ever speak seriously?
Why does she bring
toilet humour into it?
I'll get water.
Why the toilet humour?
Why did you say these things
when I'm eating?
Because this discussion is funny.
You find everything funny, Manava.
- What?
There's a deeper reason
behind getting married.
Ages ago, there was.
- Even now.
Back then everything
had a deeper reason.
Doesn't exist anymore?
- Over time, it got lost.
Only customs and traditions remained.
If our families are so concerned
about us getting married
tell them that we're already married.
We got married the way
Gods used to marry.
Right!
- Yes!
You held my right hand
in the Himalayas?
That's how Gods used to marry.
So, we're married!
They won't accept this.
Because they want the ceremony.
It's not like that.
- They want to spend money.
The core values for which the institution
of marriage was begun, no longer exist.
Belief Parents' belief in us.
Our belief in each other.
Why do we get married nowadays?
So that, if we don't, and later
the other person wants to leave
we should be able
to bind that person to us.
If the other person wants out,
it shouldn't be easily possible.
But in our relationship
- Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year.
Manava, all said and done,
life becomes stable.
So long as there is life,
there is no stability, Shlok.
Life is unstable.
That machine in the hospital
The one with zig-zag lines
That's our lifeline.
When that line becomes linear
and stable, that person is dead.
Life stabilises in death.
I get all that you're saying.
But just one signature?
It makes no difference to you
whether you sign or not.
Then why don't you sign?
You don't want the ceremony?
- Let's not have it.
Look at it as a celebration
with our people.
Twenty people from your family.
Fifteen from ours.
That's it.
Don't think of it as a wedding
A ceremony
Just come, sign, and leave.
Please Manava. One signature.
You think that everything you just said
is possible with our families?
Yes! They'll have to
listen to us.
We'll tell them our conditions.
One minute!
WE HAVE SOME CONDITIONS!
Conditions?
It will be a registered marriage.
There will be no rituals.
No rituals!
Look, we'll perform Vedic rituals at home.
Only twenty people will attend.
Why?
To prove to society that she's
my daughter-in-law, OK?
Manava told us that they want
a registered marriage.
But it's the first wedding
in our family.
We explained it to her.
Ma created a scene and
Grandma threatened to kill herself.
Then she agreed.
And now eight hundred relatives
are going to turn up in finery
to eat the wedding lunch
and gossip about it later!
They're our relatives, after all.
The best part is that
they aren't relatives.
Who has eight hundred relatives?!
Are you Mohammed Bello Abubakar?
Who's that?
The Nigerian God! He had
one hundred and twenty wives.
Only he could have
so many relatives.
Tell her to stick to one point.
Yes, yes. Tell her!
Whose side are you on?
On Mohammed's side!
- Thanks. What?!
One must have one hundred
and twenty wives.
They aren't relatives.
Grandma's inviting her bhajan
singers' group of thirty ladies.
My uncle is inviting his
Hotel Vaishali Gang.
I have five uncles and four aunts
on Papa's and Ma's side combined.
Each of them has several groups and...
How many invitees
from your family?
There will be very few invitees.
Agreed!
Correct!
Forget them, Mom. At least
let us behave sensibly.
I'd already agreed to a
registered marriage.
But they'll invite eight hundred,
and we'll invite twenty? Not done!
Move aside.
Take this, Mangal.
Listen Shlok, it should be
the same from both sides.
But twelve hundred?!
It's not a show of strength!
They invite eight hundred.
So, we invite twelve hundred!
Why invite relatives from our
village with whom we had
no contact in thirty years?
This is a good occasion
to invite and meet them.
How is it possible to meet
five hundred people in two hours?
Rajesh?!
OK, OK, Carry on!
We can renew relationships.
Mom, people come, eat, and leave.
Till the next family function,
they stay firmly away.
Shlok! They are our relatives!
But we didn't want a big wedding.
I had promised Manava!
But I want one!
- We had told you before!
I am telling you now!
It's MY wedding!
It's MY SON'S wedding!
Hang on. Just a minute.
Listen Shlok. You're sensible.
Let this wedding be done
as per her wishes. The next
I only want to get married once.
Oh! Is that so?
- Rajesh?!
So, the total number of invitees is
Twelve hundred?
Hmm.
- Plus eight hundred.

Is this how you write names
on the invitation cards?
You have messed up all of them!
Vilas! Language!
Then give me Rs. 40,000.
All the envelopes have to be reprinted.
Thanks to this idiot!
Shut up!
- You wrote the list yourself!
All names had words like Dumbo,
Baldie, Shorty written against them.
It's not my fault!
Vilas! You wrote this
in the list you gave him?
There are eight people
with the same name.
It was for our understanding.
Can't he use his brains?
How can you expect him to?
Will you all please be quiet?
I'm unable to work.
This nonsense is going on since morning!
Nonsense? These are all
tasks for YOUR wedding!
Don't do them!
I don't want anything!
What's all this?
- Both my children are such gems!
You're getting rid of one now,
aren't you?
And I'm never going to marry!
I'm nauseated by just watching
your marriage!
Hey! Hey! Wait! Nuts
Don't act smart!
Give him a tight slap, Vilas!
Wait! Nuts
Hey! Hey! Where are you off to
again, with a toothbrush?
To stay at Abhi's.
- You'll do nothing of the sort!
The wedding is in two months.
You're going to stay with a boy?
What will people say?
YOU are 'people'!
There are no other 'people' in my life!
Manava
Does Shlok know?
Do I have your permission
to stay at Abhi's place?
Why are you saying that?
You don't need
to ask for my permission!
Will you please tell that
to my parents?
What's wrong?
I've lost my peace of mind.
Wait here. I'll get coffee.
- Thanks!
Manava, it's been a week
since we last met.
Let's meet tomorrow?
Balu Uncle has invited us for dinner.
Sorry, not possible tomorrow.
Manava, don't behave so curtly.
Please.
Don't be so docile, so accepting!
Please.
Argue, fight.
Won't you support me?
Trust me, this is
me supporting you.
But what I've realised
over a period of time
I hope you will too.
On your own.
Manava
I'll check the calendar and
tell you when we can meet.
Bye.
Manava has stopped reacting.
Is it our wedding
or everybody else's?
Oh no, no.
It is definitely your wedding.
But the decisions are ours.
I mean, your Mom's and mine.
The Indian Constitution
gives you a right to marry.
But how you will get married,
will be decided by us. Not you.
Of course, if you want freedom,
you'll have to fight for it.
So, what are you suggesting?
Forget what I'm suggesting.
Think of what you want to do.
Time is of essence.
The night is fraught with dangers!
Dad! Hold it!
You're
Just a minute!
You are father and son?
- Yes.
Why didn't you tell me earlier?
You fooled me!
- Fooled? Not on purpose!
I thought you were friends.
Well, we
- I've served you for three years.
- I ought to have been informed!
How are you concerned
with our relationship?
Come on! You should have
told me before.
We could be grand-father and grand-son,
or uncle-nephew or a whomsoever!
It's none of your business!
Two people come here and
enjoy spending time together.
You can't leave them be?
You want more information!
Why should we be answerable to you?
Who are you?
I am society!
I must know!
Because I am society.
I must know!
Shlok! Shlok! Calm down!
Please go.
Sorry! Sorry everybody!
What's this, Shlok?
What's the matter? Shlok?
Shlok!
Let's go.
You knew I'd bring you here,
didn't you?
I was sure that you too would
realise what I had realised.
Now I won't speak of marriage
until you do.
I won't let anybody else
say anything either.
You still want to get married?
You're sure you don't want to?
What's wrong with this?
Nothing
- So?
But
How are you so sure
about each and everything?
That's a secret.
- What's the secret?
Decisions of whatever I want to
do or not do, are made in my gut.
I feel all my emotions team up
and declare a result.
And generally, my gut feeling
is never wrong.
I listen to it.
That's why, I'm sure.
What is it?
What's the matter?
Hold it! What happened?
Why didn't you tell me before?
- What?
This
- What?
Because I too
You too what?
All this
Are you alright?
No!
- Don't go!
I didn't say anything special!
- Nothing special?
You're using it as an excuse.
- No, I'm not!
