You never took control
of anything in your life.
Nor will you ever be able to do it.
Why did you leave your job?
Why did you leave your job? Oh, yes.
Because you were a showpiece
in the office.
For how long
will this clash of titans continue?
It's not just about us.
Shikha's ambition was bigger
than our business.
Talk to her once.
She is alone. She really needs you.
Shikha doesn't need anybody.
Did you see
what she did to poor Dylan?
I am sending him back
to Kolkata today itself.
If it's the last thing I do
as CFO of Jugaaro.
Are you 100 percent sure you want this?
I have never been so sure
of anything in my life.
Fine. I guess.
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
Yes?
Anahita madam has sent me.
To take you to the airport.
Shall I carry your luggage?
Yes. Take the bag. Come.
Sir, aren't you David Jones?
No.
No. It is really you.
I just said I am not David Jones.
Sorry, sir.
- I must be mistaken.
- It's okay.
Take the bag.
- Sir, I am waiting downstairs.
- Okay.
Hey, mister.
Your time is up.
Shikha ma'am.
- What is it?
- Tax forms.
Last date today.
Give it to Anahita.
Where is Anahita ma'am?
Leave it. I will send it.
Fine, ma'am.
Don't pester me.
I said it will be done.
Bobby. Bobby.
Are you avoiding me?
What?
These are tax forms.
Give it to Anahita.
Don't you think you should do that?
Mak.
Can we please end this fight?
I am sorry. I made a mistake.
But this is you and me.
We are grown-up women.
We can't be fighting
about such small shit.
I was wrong.
I will handle Laila's matter.
This business needs you.
You still don't get it, do you?
I didn't leave my career
and my job for this business.
I left it for my friend, for you.
But it's enough.
I am done.
I don't want to be your sidekick.
Now I want to be the main character
of my life.
For once.
I said that in a fit of rage.
You know me.
We have always been equals.
I look up to you, Mak.
Really, Shikha?
Really?
Really?
Yeah. I didn't think so.
Be happy. I am done.
Are you both still fighting?
She is leaving the company.
Is it this easy for her to drop
our friendship of 20 years?
She says she can't trust me anymore.
Tell me the truth, Shikha.
Who are you missing
the most right now?
Your friend or your business partner?
I just want my friend back.
Did you go to apologize to her as a friend
or a business partner?
A partner.
Life is all about choices, dear.
You will have to choose.
Sunjoy also had to choose.
This all feels like déjà vu.
Dad and Walia.
Mak and I.
Am I the monster?
Have I become like Walia?
It's not the same thing, dear.
Anahita and you are childhood friends.
Sunjoy and Walia
were just business partners.
Whatever happened between
them was purely business.
Your dad was an artist.
He wasn't a businessman.
Think about it, Shikha.
Why do you want to do business?
I just wanted to fulfill Dad's dream.
Then this isn't your dream.
It's merely your stubbornness.
You don't have to carry
his baggage, dear.
You don't.
Yes, Firoo.
No. No. I am just going
to go fetch Dylan
and take him to the airport.
His driver is waiting for him.
He is not coming downstairs.
He must have forgotten, as usual.
Anyway, I am just waiting for an auto.
Let me go!
Dylan.
Where are you, Dylan?
Dylan.
Are you here?
Get in the car.
- My bag. Let it go.
- Hey
- Get in.
- What is this mess?
You
- Scoundrel.
- Enough, madam.
Your time's up.
Let me go! Leave me!
It's a big mess
Even straight is crooked here
This world is one big maze
- Where are we?
- I'll tell you.
Where are we going? Say something.
Mister, wait
Mak.
What are you doing here, Mak?
Thank God, Dylan. You are fine.
Hold on. Hold on.
What are all of us doing here?
Sir.
I have called for all of you.
Laila?
Laila.
Laila!
The three of you look
great together.
I have some good news to give you.
You wanted to get rid of me,
didn't you?
Fine. I'll make it happen.
You can repay me the 4.5 crores
and live your life.
What?
Again
Laila, we borrowed
only two crores from you.
- This is absolutely unfair
- It's unfair.
Laila, what are you doing here?
I have come to your wedding, bastard!
What do you think I am doing here?
Sorry.
I am under a lot of pressure.
The ED has arrested me.
They received a secret tip.
They have arrested me for tax evasion.
The tax officials
can freeze Tokas Pehlwan's money,
that I have circulated in the market.
That's why I am recovering the money
from everybody in the market.
What if someone is unable
to arrange for it?
No
I am just asking for a friend.
Then Tokas Pehlwan will incur a loss.
And I will have to go to prison.
Tokas will let you go to prison?
What do you think?
Where are we?
What is this?
No. I mean, you are Tokas's
special friend.
No. Say it.
Look into my eyes and say it.
I am not hearing it for the first time.
I am used to it now.
But you see, David
Unfortunately, women learn the difference
between value and worth in no time.
I am sorry.
Repay my money.
That settles the matter.
You have two days.
Laila, it's not possible
in such a short span of time.
So make it possible, darling.
Don't show me attitude.
Chintu is there.
He will keep motivating you.
Won't you, Chintu?
Yes, madam.
Here.
Enjoy. It's nice.
Working with Laila was a big mistake.
My mistake.
I just want to fix it anyhow.
Dylan, your
This
You had my diary
Us.
So many happy memories.
Dylan.
I am very, very sorry.
I was very rude to you the other day.
I had no right.
You have always helped us.
And I used you for my business.
I have hurt you a lot.
I just wanted you to know that
I am very sorry.
Yes. I was a little hurt.
Actually, a lot more than a little.
I was so upset only once before
in my life.
When
I lost my family.
It was all my mistake.
My drinking.
I cannot ever forget that day.
That was the worst day of my life.
Dylan, you're drunk.
Don't drive.
Don't worry, Mama!
I am in control.
Yesterday, I felt as if I had lost
my family all over again.
But don't think that you guys
were using me.
You guys thought
that you had called me here
for your covert motives. But
the truth is that
I also had an ulterior motive.
I wanted to get out
of my meaningless life.
Both of you gave me a chance
and a purpose.
So
You are also our family.
I promise you.
I will fix this.
I just want you to forgive me for this.
Forgive you? For? For what?
Got you.
- My My
- Mak.
- I am
- My
- Sorry.
- Eternal partner
- I know.
- All day long
I find myself telling stories
Telling stories
Sir, please do something
to disperse the loan faster.
Sir, it's very urgent. Otherwise,
I really wouldn't have asked you.
Both of you are strange.
You want a loan for business?
Three days.
It won't be possible, dear.
There is a non-compete clause.
It's valid for two years.
An entrepreneur is only as good as
the decisions they make.
It takes months for due diligence.
No. No chance.
Not possible, dear.
Walia won't spare me.
Check the term sheet.
It's a suicide note.
Normally, it takes three weeks.
But I will get it done
in two weeks for you.
I can only give you 50 lakhs.
Had it been a few lakhs,
I would have managed.
In return for future sales.
Sorry, dear.
- I won't be
- Able to invest.
Goodnight.
You know the bank protocol.
Protocols. Protocols. Protocols.
Where do these protocols vanish when
the billionaires flee with their billions?
Any other option?
There is another loan shark like Tokas.
We can take a loan from him
and discuss interest
No. I was just thinking out loud.
No need to take stress.
It was just an idea.
We are screwed.
We are the hottest
alcoholic beverage startup.
How did we end up here?
There must be someone
who will take a chance on us.
We will have to do it soon.
Laila is not going to wait.
It's Laila madam's personal reminder.
There is no time.
Mister, we are trying.
Hey, mister. Hello. Hi. Time is not up.
We still have time.
You, please, just chill.
Madam, time and youth pass swiftly.
You need to use it prudently.
Mister, leave from here.
- You
- Right now.
- Hey.
- Dylan!
Hey! Hey!
How dare you touch me, mister!
Are you underestimating me?
I will bury you right here.
Did you understand, madam?
There is no time left.
I am okay, guys.
Do you have cough drops?
There is one person
who will be willing to invest.
You are not serious, are you?
Sit. Relax. Let's just all try
to think straight for a minute.
Okay?
Okay.
Yeah.
This is the straightest
I have thought in my entire life.
Think once more, Shikha.
I have thought about it.
If I want to save the company,
I will have to offer him a minority stake.
Explain to her.
Everything will be over.
It's not worth it.
Not everything.
Nope.
It doesn't work for me.
What do you mean
by it doesn't work for you?
Our valuation is fair.
Four times the turnover.
Kindly take a look
at our next year's projection.
It's a no-brainer, Walia.
You had given us an investment offer.
I am not interested
in a minority stake now.
I want everything.
Lock, stock, and every
freaking beer barrel.
I want everything.
Or nothing at all.
Walia, that is not on the table.
Then this discussion is pointless.
Leave him, Shakes.
It's not worth it. I told you.
He is wasting our time.
- Think about it.
- Shakes.
It's not worth it.
Are you seriously thinking about it?
Hypothetically speaking,
if we are willing to sell the company,
what's your offer?
That's better.
I have already sent the term sheet.
Check it.
What is it?
You've got to be joking. Right?
That's less than a quarter
of our company's worth.
That's my offer.
Take it.
Or leave it.
This is a waste of our freaking time.
This is a waste of time, Shikha.
He is taking advantage of us.
I have time to waste.
But do you have it?
This is a world of business, girls.
It's all a game of timing.
What do you mean it's his patent?
Can't we stop him?
In exchange for the loan,
he's keeping my patent and trademark.
Let it go, Radha.
We'll see a different dream.
Dad.
Shikha, my dear.
He had given us the offer
in front of you. Remember?
At the table.
And now, on the phone call,
he just completely flipped.
There is a limit to colonial capitalism.
How can he do that?
We will have to sell it.
Shakes, you are in a state of shock.
Okay?
That number is just nonsense.
It won't even cover our cost of capital.
He will take away everything.
Our brand. Our IP. Our recipe. Everything.
We will not freaking let that happen.
Mak, we have run out of options.
Like Walia said
- it's not our time.
- Shikha, hold on.
Don't worry. I will speak with Laila.
I am sure she will give us an extension.
It's too late, Dylan.
Nothing is possible now.
No, Shakes, no.
We have worked way too hard on this.
We cannot just let it go.
Let it go, Mak.
We'll see a different dream.
I am calling Walia and telling him
that we are accepting his offer.
Hold on. Hold on, Shikha.
How much time do we have?
Maybe 24 hours.
Okay. I have to make a call.
Don't do anything till I come back.
Make sure, Anahita.
Do you know?
That night,
I overheard your and Dad's argument.
The night Gondogol shut down.
Shikha, I am so sorry.
Why are you sorry about it?
I was just so angry.
It was so hard to see Dad so weak,
so powerless.
But now I have understood that
it wasn't his weakness.
It was his strength.
Absolutely.
It was his strength.
Dear, life is just an act of letting go.
It isn't so easy to give your passion,
your legacy to somebody else.
Was it that pain that just killed him?
No.
No. Your dad was happy.
He was really happy, dear,
till his very end.
Do you remember how he
always used to say
"B for beer is fine for me.
Not business."
Shikha. My child.
When will you realize
that Sunjoy's legacy was not Gondogol,
it's you.
And now, you will also have
to decide what your legacy is.
But Dad did the right thing, right?
By letting it go.
That's what I am doing too.
I don't know why
I'm doing the right thing,
but it just feels so wrong.
You know, Shikha.
We feel that parents have all the answers,
but I really don't know.
Shikha,
I am also figuring out life as I go.
Mom, what are you doing?
- What? I
- My story
But what a ride though!
What a ride, man!
I am only going to say it once.
So hear me loud and clear.
I am really going to miss you guys.
You live with me, fool.
Can you, for once,
let me have my moment, sister?
Where is Dylan?
I do not know.
He said there is some surprise.
I can't handle any more surprises, please.
It's all a game of timing.
Walia's luck is good,
and our timing is bad.
Everything will be fine.
Take it.
Don't tell me how to eat. Keep quiet.
Where is Dylan?
His phone is switched off.
He must have forgotten.
Shall we go?
Let's wait for some time.
He must be coming.
Shall we go, madam?
Walia sir is waiting.
David Jones.
Why? Aren't we enough?
Can we please get done with this?
Okay.
Now you are talking sense.
Smart choice.
In fact, the only choice.
You are absolutely ready
for the takeover.
What takeover?
What preparation?
This is the world of business.
And all roads come to Walia.
Please don't forget. You came to us.
I did.
I came as a well-wisher
to congratulate my friend's daughter.
But you guys
made professional rivalry very personal.
Since both of you
wanted a villain, so be it.
Okay.
A friendly villain's advice.
There isn't a "good or bad" in business.
But there is a "right and wrong."
Like it's "wrong" to mix business
with friendship.
You will regret it.
It is "wrong" to partner
with a criminal.
You will go to prison.
How do you know
that Laila is in prison?
That means you sent the ED after Laila.
Here.
Sign it.
Shikha.
Don't.
Do it.
Good girls.
Hey. What is this?
This is our deal.
- Not anymore.
- Hey.
- What will you do?
- Don't you guys understand?
I sent Laila to prison.
Tokas also couldn't save her.
Do you think you will be able
to fight with me?
- Did you hear everything?
- Hello. Hello.
- Hey.
- Yes.
Hey, moron! Who are you talking to?
Give me the phone.
Give me the phone.
- Give it. Who are you talking to?
- Hey!
Your father.
What the hell! Who is it?
What drama is going on here?
Juggy.
Mr. Walia.
I heard that you are taking
a lot of interest in my business.
So I thought, let's have
a face-to-face meeting.
Who are you?
Premnath Kakinath Tokas.
Alias Tokas Pehlwan.
It's all the game of timing.
Walia's luck is good,
and our timing is bad.
The ED has arrested me.
They received a secret tip.
Laila, it's not possible
in such a short span of time.
I have time to waste.
But do you have it?
Mak, we have run out of options.
Like Walia said
It's all a game of timing.
Can you trust me one last time?
Thank you, sir, for meeting with us.
We know who framed Laila.
Just give us one chance.
Please.
Toodles.
Enjoy.
Look, whatever loss you have suffered
Loss is common in business.
But you have snatched Laila's smile.
You will have to pay the price for that.
Do you understand?
Look out!
She's here!
She is a badass gal
She's here!
She is a badass gal
Dylan.
- Damn!
- The badass gal is a fireball
Dylan.
Dylan, what the hell!
Wow!
You enjoy doing this, don't you?
Are you okay?
Where were you?
We called you so many times.
I forgot where I had kept my phone.
And I forgot to mention one more thing.
Don't sell the company.
- You don't worry.
- I have handled Laila.
Handled her? Meaning?
I mean,
I gave Laila the money you owed her.
Dylan.
Dylan, why? How?
I sold the Thomas House.
This clingy man was chasing me
for 20 years.
"Sir, sell it. Sell it."
Finally, I got rid of him.
That's why I am buying
him expensive liquor.
Nitin Baid.
Nice to meet you two.
Again.
I am still really confused.
I had to negotiate in David Jones' style.
DELHI POLICE
After all,
I learned from the very best. Didn't I?
We will buy back the Thomas House.
Why, Dylan?
Why did you sell your house?
Thomas House was your home.
That's what I also used to think.
"My house. My house." You know.
But after meeting you people,
I understood that it was just a house.
Both of you are my home.
But you should have at least informed
us before doing all that.
If I had told you,
you wouldn't have let me sell it.
- Dylan.
- Dylan.
You are just
the best.
40 percent. 40 percent.
20 percent. Full and final.
No. Actually, I don't understand.
When did I become a partner?
When you saved the company
from getting sold, Dylan.
Come on, guys. I didn't save it.
The company was saved
because both of you
used your brains at the right time.
- It has nothing to do with me.
- We might be the brains.
But you are the company's heart, Dylan.
Welcome to Jugaaro, partner.
- Welcome.
- Thank you.
- Okay.
- Okay. Come on.
Okay. Since I am a partner now,
my first decision is to have some music.
- And do "Phugadi."
- Play "Phugadi."
Listen.
Enough of hide-and-seek.
Shall we do it openly?
What?
How did I
Become yours?
Secretly loving you
Loving you
And talking to you
Once we are together
Together
We can live together
Where will the saga lead us?
Where did it start and where did it end?
Where will the saga lead us?
Neither you nor I know
Where will the saga lead us?
Where did it start and where did it end?
Where will the saga lead us?
Neither you nor I know
Where will the sage lead us?
Where did it start and where did it end?
Where will the sage lead us?
Neither you nor I know
Kabir.
I am sending this voice note only
to say sorry to you.
You always say that we have to prioritize
what's important in our lives.
You were right.
I was so stupid.
I have understood what my priority is.
It's you.
It's us.
I didn't know you were leaving.
I don't know why I never showed
that I care about you.
It's so stupid.
What was the need
to hold myself back like that?
If I knew you were leaving,
I would have come to the airport,
wearing a lehenga.
I am coming to Singapore.
I miss you so much.
I miss you so much.
And I have not eaten kosha mangsho
for a long time.
- You will cook it for me, won't you?
- Where will the saga
- I miss you. I am very sorry.
- Neither you
- I am very, very sorry.
- Nor I know
Let's make our beer.
We made our beer.
Now I want to do something else.
What will I do without you?
You will be fine, Shakes.
You are there. Bobby is there.
Dylan is there. Radha is there.
And I am there
until you find my replacement.
Think about it once again.
Shakes, don't worry about my shares.
I won't sell them to anyone
without your consent.
But we make such good partners.
But we are better friends.
I choose us.
Not the business.
I choose us too.
My eternal partner, all day long
I find myself telling stories
That begin with you
Juggy, my brother.
You didn't lose weight even
after Tokas's bashing.
Since you have come,
drink some good-quality beer.
I will get it for you.
Tokas's matter has been settled.
Mr. Walia insisted that
I deliver this personally to you.
Registered post is slow, you know.
What is this?
Walia is suing us for IP theft.
He claims that we stole my dad's recipe
and made our own beer.
That's just bullshit.
We changed the recipe.
I am the one who made it.
It's a nuisance lawsuit.
It has been filed in Jabalpur.
So that we waste our time and money.
See this. News flash.
Only for you.
All of you will be pleased to know that
I am going to make
my age-old dream come true.
I am relaunching
India's first-ever craft beer.
Gondogol.
Gondogol.
Here we go again.
