Hey
What is this mess?
It's a big mess
Even straight is crooked here
This world is one big maze
My companion
My eternal partner, all day long
I find myself telling stories
That begin with you
My eternal partner, all day long
Life is nothing but the moments
I spend with you
My eternal partner, all day long
I find myself telling stories
That begin with you
My eternal partner, all day long
Life is nothing but the moments
I spend with you
Because it's still showing 27 minutes.
Even if I make all the traffic lights,
I will only reach by 8:57 a.m.
Mak, you are three minutes before time.
Shakes, even on time for me, is late.
And you know, right?
After today's meeting,
Bhaskar is going to decide
who is going to get that promotion.
I get it. Relax, Mak.
A financial risk analyst
will have to take some risks.
Hello. You mean soon-to-be Vice President?
Yes, Ms. Vice President, you got this.
Listen, just go and kill it.
Why is everyone standing outside?
What's going on?
Sartaj.
What's going on?
Why is everyone standing outside?
It's that brand "Silver Tusk".
They have made the whole office stand
outside for three hours now.
I think it's safe
to say we are in trouble.
What the hell.
Where are you going?
I work here.
That's alright.
Walia sir is busy in a meeting.
I had heard a lot about you, Mr. Walia.
I got to meet you today.
It's good.
So, Silver Tusk has finally
sunk its teeth into my company.
You have my company now.
No
In fact, you have my name now.
Shubh Navami, child.
Inder, how can he do this to you?
And how can you let him win like this?
This is your legacy.
To hell with legacy.
It's a hostile takeover,
why don't you get that?
Walia's screwed the entire
beer market.
My company was doomed to sink one day,
and so it did.
Who would have fought for me?
Tell me who.
This is supposed to be a family business.
But my family is least interested.
And, Walia's bringing in his own team.
So, sorry, I couldn't save your job.
But don't worry.
You're a marketing stud.
You will easily find another job.
Dear, if you need any help,
I am there.
You are like my daughter.
MY DAUGHTER SHIKHA
YOUR DAD IS WITH YOU
Dad?
What does "Gondogol" mean?
"Gondogol" means
when everything goes awry.
Then why did you name
the beer Gondogol?
Why not?
Who said Gondogol means something bad?
Sometimes only when
things don't go as planned
do we discover something new.
Dear, understanding beer is much like
understanding the meaning of life.
Understood?
How about a taste test?
Yes, taste test.
Lovely!
- Now this one.
- Okay.
Okay
With you
What happened?
Look at this. It's flat!
No one drank this one.
Life is just like that.
If you don't enjoy it in the moment,
then what will happen?
It will go flat.
Exactly.
To Sunjoy Roy Chowdhury.
Like every genius in the world,
he was misunderstood all his life.
But he never gave up on his passion.
Never.
Dad? How come you don't go
to the office like other dads do?
Those who go to the office
want to work for others.
But your dad wants
to only work for himself.
Understand?
Firoo.
Firoo, where are you?
Oh, there you are.
I have the best news.
I'm definitely getting
promoted this time!
Let's celebrate.
Congratulations!
After five years of slavery,
you'll finally get a
five percent salary bump,
and a pat on the bum.
If it didn't happen
the previous two times,
- why will it happen now?
- I'm being serious.
It's just Rohan and me
in the running now.
And Bhaskar clearly knows
who landed the biggest
financial account this year.
Guess who?
Yeah.
Firdaus!
- Are you even listening to me?
- What?
You've been blabbering for so long.
Has your gym membership expired?
My gym membership is still valid.
But see
with all this holiday weight,
how must I go to the gym?
Hey look who's calling.
Shikha!
- Shakes!
- Mak, I have some bad news
and also some good news.
Listen. Can you meet me?
What happened?
Are you going to ask me everything now,
or will you meet me?
Come to Red Tiger.
Okay, I'll see you in twenty.
- Bye. I am going out with Shikha.
- When are you ever home anyway
Alcoholism is not a good look on girls.
I heard that.
You were meant to. Alcoholic!
That Walia
He was this close.
And then?
I just froze.
No
I just don't get it.
Bloody Walia.
As it is, I was thinking,
instead of working for him,
it's better if you join my office.
You just send me your CV and
I will forward it to the marketing VP.
Bro, all my life, I have been waiting
for a chance to exit this
rat race.
And now,
when life itself is challenging me,
and if I still end up ignoring it,
then who's the dumbshit?
You know what?
I have decided.
I'm ready.
Me too.
What should we order?
Mak?
Mak, dude, don't change the topic.
Come on. Let's make our own beer.
You say this
every single time we drink.
Yes, because we're so good together.
And just 15 minutes ago,
I told you that I am getting a promotion.
Did you forget?
I know, and that's what
we are celebrating.
- Listen. I am so proud of you.
- Exactly.
But hear me out.
Look. See.
You like beer.
I love beer.
And I love you.
Then why don't you make it?
You make the beer,
and I'll drink it.
But you also make beer!
Man, beer really makes life better.
- You know, what else makes life better?
- Exactly.
- Hey, baby.
- Hi, Kabir.
This.
- Sometimes
- Oh.
you should occasionally surprise
your stomach with some food.
Kabir, I think Shikha
has something to tell you.
Of course. I know.
That's why I made this
for her. Her favorite.
She doesn't want any.
She's feeling low today.
You better look after her.
Don't worry about that.
I was looking out for her long before you
and I will continue to,
after you as well.
Excuse me?
- Okay.
- She is very hard. Don't mess with her.
I am guessing this team
is going to raid all the bars
in Gurgaon tonight?
- So tonight,
- My
- it's going to be a long night.
- My
Most definitely.
I am guessing you want to come
and stay at mine.
Cheers.
- Here's for you guys to start the night.
- Yes.
- Stay safe, be alive.
- Thank you.
- This is Gurgaon. Get home safe.
- My companion
- We will try.
- My companion
To your promotion.
To you, getting fired.
- Oh, yeah!
- Yeah.
- Cheers.
- Such is life.
- Okay, cheers.
- I find myself telling stories
That begin with you
My eternal partner, all day long
Life is nothing but the moments
I spend with you
Kabir seems quite sorted.
Marry him.
It's so hard to find decent guys
these days in Delhi.
Decent isn't enough.
Listen. Trust me.
A decent guy is an accomplishment.
So, right now, my life's biggest
accomplishment is that
- I have a boyfriend?
- My companion
My eternal partner, all day long
I find myself telling stories
That begin with you
My eternal partner, all day long
Life is nothing but the moments
I spend with you
- My eternal--
- Mak? Should we just do it?
Shakes
My life's biggest tragedy
is that I like men.
No, I'm saying
let's revive Gondogol.
- Revive?
- Yeah.
It's your dad's property, or what?
Technically,
it is my dad's property.
Look, for all the hard work
you put in
who takes all the credit?
Bhaskar?
It's all going to waste.
I know you want to be
your own boss.
I am only trying
to fast-track your dreams.
It's not that easy, Shakes.
Yeah, but we won't know
that until we try.
It's just not practical.
Fine.
You're going to make me work for it.
Okay, pros and cons.
No.
- So, pro
- Okay.
We will be our own bosses.
Sounds only so good.
Con.
We need money to make beer. Right?
You get to make beer
with your best friend.
I know nothing about
the beer industry.
Sis, you are a finance genius.
And money is its own industry.
Now for the mother of all cons.
We don't know how to make beer.
Don't teach a mother how
to make babies.
What do you think I did all
these years in the alco-bev industry?
I know so many people
who can make this beer.
Never mix business and friendship.
Ever, ever ever!
- But we aren't friends.
- No?
We are family.
Business doesn't have
the stability of a job.
You won't have to be
the showpiece at work.
Shakes,
you didn't have to say that.
No, Mak.
Listen.
I can see it.
And I understand.
You're not happy with this job.
I am not either
Well, technically, I don't have a job.
My point is,
we'll have our own business.
I know it will be small,
but at least we'll be happy.
Dude, it's you and me.
And remember, with our skill sets,
we will make the best partners ever!
Shakes,
I can't quit my job for these
tissue paper dreams.
Are my office colleagues dumbshits?
They most definitely are.
But now I'll be the captain
of these dumbshits.
Yeah.
- Listen.
- True.
Don't be dejected.
And that was a master stroke.
The Infra deal wasn't easy,
but you guys did it.
Well done.
All thanks to you, Bhaskar.
Anyway
Before I get
transferred to New York,
I want to thrash out
all the details.
After that, this office
and all of its problems are yours, Rohan.
Honestly.
You truly deserve this corner office.
I knew it,
you'd be a fantastic leader.
Because you are just like me.
Congratulations, Rohan.
- Thank you. Thank you, sir.
- Brilliant.
Office.
Good morning.
I am late for work.
Babe, you forgot?
Oh, shit, I am fired.
Will you work in my restaurant?
Should I speak to them?
My tissues.
My tissues. My tissues.
- Where are my tissues?
- What issues?
Where are my tissues?
- What are you saying?
- Have you seen my tissues?
Issues or tissues?
Here.
- Where did my tissues go?
- Here, tissue.
Tissue is not the issue.
Find my tissues.
Which tissues?
You won't have
to be an office showpiece.
It was a close one.
But what would you have done
in this role?
I mean, all this strategy stuff
is too boring, man.
You should be the face of the company.
After all, the infra deal was cracked
because of your smile.
One second, what?
You think we got this
deal because of my smile?
I was just quoting Bhaskar sir.
Anahita Makujina.
- Bhaskar.
- I've been looking for you.
- I was
- Such a great deal.
You nailed it.
- Yeah.
- The foreigners were also impressed.
Wasn't easy, but I am
so glad it worked out in the end.
No need to be so woke about it.
Even he meant it as a compliment.
What do you want?
Corner office or garden view?
You choose where you want to shine.
Boss, there are several advantages
to being this beautiful.
If I ever had a million-dollar smile
like yours,
perhaps I could have cracked
these big deals with clients, too.
Right?
Anahita, have you lost your mind?
Who quits over such a small thing?
Who are you negotiating with?
PWC, Bain?
What's their offer?
- I'll double it!
- Anahita.
How will we handle
the infra deal without you?
Our client relationship of
so many months will go for a toss.
Exactly, Anahita.
How am I supposed
to handle this all alone?
I don't know, Rohan.
Why don't you try smiling a little?
My companion
My companion
- Shakes. Let's make some beer.
- My companion
Mak, are you serious?
Yeah.
You are not going to regret this.
See you soon.
A bed of roses
It's our lucky day
It's also heartache
We both are lost in the valleys
We are far away from the city
Lost in our absurd obsession
Last lifetime
Sister and sister's best friend.
Welcome to my graphic design haven.
Vibe Shibe.
Please treat the place like
a one-night stand.
Not a relationship.
Okay. So, come quickly. Come quickly.
This is the common space.
This is the place for lunch.
Sometimes these employees
do some work too.
You can use this space.
What's up with you?
Hey.
This is not a park, sister.
What are you doing?
Put this ugly plant,
- somewhere else. Okay?
- Shut up, Firoo.
My heart was stolen
But it's not the fault of the robber
Five crores.
That's how much we need
to start our business.
- Five crores.
- Yeah.
You really mean like five crores?
Yes, five crore rupees.
Can you kindly explain, please?
Why do you need so much money?
You are just making beer.
Should have asked for something else.
First things first, naming the beer.
Which means branding.
Luckily for us. We have our own brand.
Gondogol.
We have its recipe.
But to make it, we need
-the brewmaster
- Meaning a chef who makes beer.
He will crack the recipe,
and we'll crack the market.
That's it. You have become
the number one party drink.
Not so soon.
Before becoming the number
one party drink,
the beer has to be approved
by the government party.
Madam, please.
Which means a brewing license
and trademark registration.
And once we have the paperwork in place,
we need a brewery.
You know, to brew the beer.
And since we don't have our own brewery
our only option is contract brewing.
Which means renting out someone's brewery,
and making our beer there.
Wait a second. Wait a second.
Let's rewind a bit.
Sorry, we went too far.
Before all of this, we need seed capital.
It means a lot of money.
And coming to your point,
since we don't have five crores,
our best option is venture capitalists.
It means, investors.
And once the product is ready,
that's when the real game begins.
Sales. Promotion. Marketing. Launch.
In a nutshell,
we are creating not only beer,
but an entire business.
Now, did you understand,
English medium?
I didn't need a lengthy explanation,
but thanks for enlightening me.
I just wanted to know when you
and your beer party are leaving my office.
Never.
Yeah, it's looking like never.
Only some fool will lend them five crores?
Did you speak to that brewmaster?
What's her name?
Helena. Heena.
Hanna.
Hanna Kroos?
Yes.
I already did.
Okay? And?
She's way out of our league.
If we can offer her a solid deal,
we'll be all set.
Rate on ten.
- Let's get started.
- Alright. Let's begin.
That's a solid eight.
Really?
That hint of cardamom.
It really hits the spot!
You must try it.
It's cardamom and bergamot.
Berga-what?
Bergamot.
Meaning Italian lemon.
Hanna, you learned Hindi? Wow!
Now, if you can just get a hold
of the local flavors,
then we'll just be three very strong
women making India's best beer, I promise.
Exciting, but is it viable?
I mean, the Indian market
is full of cheap beer.
And craft beer is elite.
Niche.
Expensive.
No, you are right.
But the consumption of craft beer
is growing by almost 25 percent in India.
There is potential.
Look, guys. You guys are really smart.
But this is not the first time
I am hearing this pitch.
Hanna, actually,
I am not offering you a job.
I am offering you a chance
for a revolution.
People in India mostly drink tea.
In a city like Banaras,
known for its tradition,
people are willing to pay 400 rupees
and are ready to stand in
a long line for a cup of coffee.
We never thought there would be
a coffee revolution in our country.
If it can happen with coffee,
why not craft beer?
I am just saying we need
to have the right vision.
To give people what they really want.
Do you have an investor?
- We'll find one!
- We'll find one!
No sweat.
We're anyway searching, so
Process is on.
Look, guys.
Without an investor,
you're wasting my time.
Look, Hanna, we know it's been tough
moving from London with
all the fancy equipment
- and bergersons
- The word is bergamot.
I have a better word for you.
Equity.
And I will offer this only once.
Rate that on ten.
This is going to be so much fun.
Looking forward, Hanna.
Bye.
We will definitely get an investor now.
We will, right?
Beer.
Just the mention of it makes
you feel like it's a holiday.
Be it from Mumbai to Miami,
or Delhi to Denmark
everyone's first drink in life
is mostly beer.
Because beer is not just alcohol.
Beer is an emotion.
You guys have passion, I give you that.
Tell me. How did you get this idea?
In a tiny garage
of a small housing society in Bengal,
where a brewmaster--
Actually, an artist,
my dad
made the first craft beer in India.
Sounds filmy.
Good idea. The Dad story
With your investment,
we can make this aspiration accessible.
But is it scalable?
Of course, it's scalable.
Premium craft beers will have at least
ten to twelve percent
of the market share by 2025.
Well, ladies, there are some
huge players already in this business.
Sir, we are small,
that's why we can experiment.
Why craft beer?
Why NCR?
What is your ten-year projection?
Why not Goa or Karnataka?
Launching this in NCR
will give us national visibility.
Do you have any idea
how unsafe NCR streets
are for ladies at night?
Do you have a sample?
I would like to taste it.
Sir, it's being made.
It's in the process.
See, I am like your dad.
I would advise you
not to get into this business.
Does your family know
you want to sell liquor?
Look, God has created every person
with a different purpose.
After all,
a woman only has to run the house.
Do the elders of your family
know about this?
Sorry, girls.
But the problem is
It's too risky.
- So, I am out.
- I am out.
- But I am out.
- But I am out.
I am in.
I am sold on this idea, man.
And working with three gorgeous women
is just an added bonus.
Right?
Your pitch was great.
Very emotional. Heart-touching.
But unless you have the trademark,
how will anybody give you the deal?
No decent investor
will take us seriously
until we have the trademark in place.
And Gondogol's trademark is with Walia.
Bloody Walia, man.
All roads lead to Walia.
When you think of Silver Tusk Spirits,
it's not just a beer, is it?
I mean the words that come
to my mind are
refreshing, fashionable, cool.
The man of the hour,
the HQ Businessman of the Year
CEO
And Chairman of Silver Tusk Spirits,
Mr. Vikram Walia.
Who's that handsome guy?
Just kidding. Kidding.
I started from zero.
Zero.
I locked myself in a garage.
Just me
A few broken pieces of equipment
and dozens of dreams.
So, as the humble owner of India's
favorite beer brand,
ladies and gentlemen,
I want to share something with you.
My life's
principle.
Understanding beer
is much like
understanding the meaning of life.
Understanding beer is much like
understanding the meaning of life.
If you don't enjoy it at the right time,
then what will happen?
It will go flat.
Before it does,
you should enjoy it.
Understood?
How could you do this
without asking me?
It's just business, my friend.
I thought we were partners.
Walia! Walia!
Shubh Navami, child.
What do you mean it's his trademark?
Wasn't Gondogol your idea?
He has taken it.
In exchange for the loan,
he's keeping my patent and trademark.
Can't we stop him?
There has to be some paperwork.
I trusted him, Radha.
You trusted him?
I'm juggling between two jobs
to run this house,
so that you can pursue your passion
and you did all of this just on trust!
Let it go, Radha.
We'll see a different dream.
No, no, no.
After coming all the way here
and gate-crashing the event,
you can't be scared now, bro.
Let's write him an email.
He
might just
We don't have time to speculate.
He's in his room changing
for the party tonight.
Let's go get him.
What do you mean by "Let's go get him"?
Like, what should we do?
Something radical.
Room service.
Coming.
She's crazy like a fool.
Mr. Walia.
Yeah.
Very sorry we have to meet you this way.
- What's going on?
- But we had no choice. Very sorry.
- Security. Juggy.
- No, no, no.
- Juggy, I want security.
- No, no, no.
- We just want two minutes.
- Hey
- Sir, two minutes.
- I know kung fu.
So do I. Please sit down.
- Sit down.
- Just listen.
- Sit down.
- Here?
Sunjoy Roy Chowdhury.
Sunjoy Roy Chowdhury.
Sunjoy Roy Chowdhury.
Your friend in college.
He was the brewmaster,
and you were the distributor.
- Gondo Gondogol.
- Gondogol.
We just want its trademark.
Please.
We want to revive that brand.
Shanti?
Shikha.
Shikha.
You are right.
But this is not the way to do business.
You are such a big man.
One trademark won't
make any difference to you.
You didn't even use it.
Please, give it, Uncle.
Uncle!
Uncle who?
You auntie!
Mr. Walia, okay?
Mr. Walia, yeah?
Hey, I'll tell you what.
Tell you what
You're reminding me of Sunjoy.
He was a sweet chap.
His ideas were nice.
But didn't have the
qualities of an entrepreneur,
just like you right now.
Look, don't mind.
But
this business isn't suited
for good girls like you.
Mr. Walia, I am Anahita Makujina.
We are politely requesting
you for the trademark--
It's not for sale.
- But please--
- It's
- Please--
- not
- Just--
- for sale!
Forget him, Mak.
You can keep the trademark.
But how will you stop me from making beer?
Get ready.
Things are about to get messy.
Get out.
Look out!
She's here!
She is a badass gal
She's here!
She is a badass gal
The badass gal is a fireball
Look out!
