Fizzy! Fizzy! What was the need to ask for a pitch?

You have put us in a position of compromise.

-Compromise? -Yes.

-Compromise? -Yes.

You made us look desperate.

You said that I should handle Motibagh on my own.

-But you still feel the need to interfere. -It's simple.

Our partners should share our values with us.

-This company's name is CouchPotato-- -WorkPotato.

-WorkPotato. -That changes everything.

What quality of work do you think they'll offer us then?

-Dude, what are you doing? -Modelling.

-Modelling? You haven't a clue. -Exactly.

I haven't done any modelling yet. I probably wouldn't do it.

Just as Motibagh is not your thing. So don't do it.

I had already done the deal.

Our lawyers have been through their contracts 10 times already. 10 times!

I want them to pitch for me just once. Once.

-Pitch to you? -Pitch to me, yeah.

Fine. Keep interfering. I'll call them tomorrow.

-Okay. -You'll be there.

-Sure. -On time!

What time?

I'll tell you. Good night!

This Maharaja will be a handful.

International cover boy.

He's dated Lily, Taylor, Deepika--

Ma'am, he is a Swiftie. This is a very good indication.

He's not a green flag. He's a green forest.

- Come on. - I don't care.

We arrived at this palace to close this deal,

but we didn't even know who the real Maharaja was.

It's embarrassing, Kunal. He thought we were amateurs, okay?

And that's why he asked for a pitch.

Soph, that's not what they're thinking, though, is it?

We made a little mistake. That's all it is.

Why are you getting so worked up?

What?

The Maharaja is unimportant right now. Do what you do best.

Use the pitch to focus on.

-Guys-- -Niki, no.

Fine. Niki, show me the designs again.

Keertana, let's go set up my office in my room.

-Yes, ma'am. -Kunal, Digvijay has to confirm a time

for our meeting tomorrow.

On it.

This Maharaja will now know who really rules the world.

♪ My baby, baby, don't you cry Come to Mama ♪

♪ Cause Daddy's gonna get you Diamonds and drama ♪

♪ Oh baby, baby We are the tycoons ♪

♪ Who rules the world Everyone dances to my tunes ♪

♪ Old money, blue blood Rolling out the red rug ♪

♪ Cause we coming at the scene Cause I got the genes ♪

♪ Coming from a long line Of kings and queens ♪

♪ Royal, sheen, royal Taking whatever we please, royal ♪

♪ Who rules the world ♪

♪ Who rules the world ♪

Good evening. Why do you need me?

-Your Highness. -Good evening, Master.

You might need to look at this.

Wow! Great handwriting, Pankaj.

Thanks for the compliment, Master. But these are bills.

-What am I to do? -Sign them.

- Me? - Yes.

Guys, can't we do this a little later? Or you can do it, please?

I have to get up early in the morning and my friends are coming to the airport.

And I can't make the ladies wait.

And what about this lady waiting over here?

I've waited for you to do it forever, Fizzy.

To come home and take care of my responsibilities.

Why didn't Baba sort the bills out with that Maurice along with all the money?

Speaking of which, any update?

Does it look like he's with us?

- Give it here. - Of course.

Second page, sir. Just here.

-The electricity bill? -Yes, the amount--

-The electricity bill is 30 lakhs? How? -I suppose we have lights on every day.

I mean, this is ridiculous. Look at it. Are we using single malt to bathe with?

No, it's just water. This is a bill of 10 lakhs for water.

Are all the peacocks of Morpur out there being cleaned up?

Stop the fountains running!

Gifts? For who?

Anyone that visits here is given a gift to take home.

- What are we giving, though?! - Well, Pashmina shawls,

Banarasi scarves,

big bottles of single malt.

Gifts to take home.

Girdhari Sa, it's better if our guests leave with only memories from now on.

Please.

And are we exporting all this saffron and almonds, Girdhari?

Every guest in the palace has saffron-almond milk. You know…

Drink it, drink it. No rush.

From tomorrow onwards, serve our guests only water, please.

Master, these are just… the everyday bills.

-Who is buying all these diamonds? -Uh…

What's a woman supposed to do?

Morpur's queen deserves it, no?

There are many traditions and sometimes I go shopping.

Keeping up appearances.

Does this family spend as much as it can?

And paintings from all these museums, why are they here?

Not fair that everyone's just looking at my hobbies.

What about your vintage cars?

And the horses? Massive ones.

Listen, you leave my horses alone.

You better get rid of the cars then. Petrol costs a lot.

And how about your entourage?

You look like you're out asking everyone to vote for you.

But they're all here to serve Motibagh more than you seem to be.

Well, I apologise, Your Highness. But you'll have to lower your staff.

Miscellaneous? What is this, Jinnie?

Mumma buys more diamonds than I do.

I just invest in people who are like diamonds.

-Excuse me? -You should find mutual funds

to invest in, Jinnie.

Your boyfriends' returns are beneath you.

Maa, why on earth do you need eight masseuses?

-I mean, you only have four limbs. -I'm a widow, not a corpse.

Girdhari, come on. Employ fewer staff from now on, please.

Kitchen staff especially, there's no need. What's the big deal about cooking anyway?

But, Your Majesty, they've worked here for a long time.

That's enough now, please. Good night. And I need a car for tomorrow.

The cars are gone, Your Highness.

-A good Maharaja always leads by example. -And how will I get to the airport?

Careful!

- Oh, my God! - What the fuck!

You're an actual effing prince!

Actual effing prince?

- I mean… - Oh, my--

It's just ceremonial. That's all.

You never said that you had like a fucking carriage with horses and guards.

We use carriages all the time. It's…

They're more reliable than cars, to be honest, so…

Wow!

It's so beautiful.

Thank you.

Oh, wow!

Wait.

Next time, at least send two of these, Girdhari.

-Your Majesty… -We put the luggage in there with us.

Baby, what is this?

-This is… -Water.

-This is blessed water. -Blessed water?

- Please help yourselves. - All right. Come on.

Yeah.

Soph.

-Pitch meeting is postponed again. -Huh?

Pitch meeting's postponed, okay? Apparently, the Maharaja is busy.

My car. Seriously? They couldn't find a better time for this.

Keep going.

-Is Pankaj here? -Pankaj sir?

Good morning, ma'am.

Ms. Shekhar.

Seems like you are always riding a horse.

A tradition. I'm sure you'll understand.

You asked for a pitch, and we're ready. Then why are we waiting?

-I'm busy today. -I can see.

You're very busy.

Look, Aviraaj, we have a lot of money to offer.

A Mumbai start-up is probably not going to cut it.

My dad's entitlement shop is doing just fine.

Sir, sell the Rolls-Royce too. I'll give you a good deal.

- Sir… - Come with me, please.

What happened? I'll give you a cut.

Look, whatever happened between us was very unfortunate.

But, Aviraaj, I'm very good at what I do.

This Mumbai start-up, I've made a unicorn of it.

Just take the money. Motibagh clearly needs it.

Ms. Shekhar, if you'll excuse me,

I have some actual lovely ladies waiting for me. So, I'll see you later.

Hey, shall we go in?

- Yeah. - Come on, then!

This is the royal road that's going inside the palace.

What is that?

This is the late Maharaja Yuvanath's chambers.

There's nothing to see there.

Come along, I'll show you the nicer parts of the palace.

Oh, Rambha! My paintings.

My paintings, my jewelry,

what remains of me without all of these things? Huh?

What about your children? Hmm?

Some changes are being made in the palace.

You both have served the royal family well.

You will get all the help you need to find a new opportunity.

Good luck.

Good morning, ma'am.

Namaste, Girdhari ji.

Namaste, Sophia.

They… They'd been working here a while?

Over 40 years.

And me as well.

I haven't even been here 40 hours and yet I feel bad.

Your people and you have become a part of this palace.

Girdhari ji, you and I together can change this situation.

For that, all I need is to know the Morpur family better.

If you could help me out a little, please.

Ms. Shekhar!

It's tradition, Majesty.

- Ms. Shekhar! - Hi!

What a lovely surprise.

-Sophia, please. -Sophia.

-Kunal. Yes. -You already know him.

I call dibs on that one.

- They are definitely fucking. - What?

-It's great that we're all here. -That's my Head of Design, Niki.

That's my EA, Keertana.

-Hi. -Hi, Diggy sir. So big…

Fan. I meant fan.

-Don't mind her. -I hope you're joining us for dinner.

-Yeah, of course. -Sure.

- I'll be back in a second. - Okay.

Who's the one in the purple dress?

- Cheers! - Divyaranjini.

- He's her twin brother. Diggy sir. - Hi.

-Thank you for having me. -So wonderful to see you.

I'm so glad you made it. Guys, Sameera Kashyap.

-Hi. -She is the head of Raghanis.

-Hi. -Oh, my God. I know her.

-What a pleasant surprise! -Hi, Sophia. How are you?

-I'm good. How are you? -Good to see you.

-And I know you too. How're you, Kunal? -Hi Sameera. I'm good.

This is my younger brother.

-Pleasure. -Nice to meet you.

-Stunning property. Absolutely beautiful. -Stunning indeed!

-Come. I'll show you around. -See you around.

-How was your flight? -Oh, it was good.

The bar's right there. I insist you have a drink.

I will be with you in just a second.

-Yes, of course. -Thank you so much.

-Kate, Sameera. Sameera, Kate. -Hey! Nice to meet you.

What is she doing here?

I have no idea what.

-Act normal. -I am acting normal, Kunal.

Ma'am, you may not remember her, we met her at the business awards.

She was your competitor, ma'am.

Her outfit's the same colour as yours, ma'am. How has she done that?

-I know, Keertana! -Sorry, ma'am.

So, Morpur, what has attracted you here?

Umm… this.

Raghanis are always on the lookout for beautiful heritage properties.

And Aviraaj personally invited me here, so…

there's no way I could've said no.

-It was a no-brainer. -True.

I mean, Raghanis are hospitality industry's royalty after all.

They're always welcome.

Two CEOs here?

The net worth of both of them together

is more than enough to buy the whole of Morpur.

That's good. Thank you.

Maharani ji, your brilliant art collection is world-renowned.

So, a little something from us to you.

-Wow! -Wow!

Raja Ravi Varma was my mum's favourite artist.

So it just felt right.

Really sweet of you. Thank you so much.

- You're most welcome. - Congrats, Paddy.

- So happy! I'm so happy! - That's so sweet.

Incredible. What a lovely gift. Thank you, Ms. Shekhar.

Marvellous.

Fizzy,

what is this?

Portion control?

Are we all dieting?

It's… first course, Maji.

There will be more.

I hope so.

Hi. I'm Divyaranjini. They call me Jinnie with love, though.

Hi, I'm Niki.

And everyone that loves me calls me Niki.

And what is it you do, Jinnie?

Darling, we're Morpur royalty,

which means that's enough.

We just are.

I am.

Aviraaj, I saw your cover story feature. It's pretty cool.

Thank you. Appreciate it.

So, how did you two meet?

Umm… Last month, was it? Sri Lanka. Yeah.

-During the business awards. -Business awards?

Oh, please, don't get Avi started on Sri Lanka.

He had a terrible time, didn't you?

-Really? You were in Sri Lanka? -What?

-Horse guy? -Well, Soph was there too last month.

Yeah? Yeah.

For Work Potato's success, she received the Entrepreneur of the Year award.

- Oh really? That's amazing. - Why didn't you tell me?

-Congratulations to the two of you. -Thank you.

Well, it's all her.

It's all her.

Stop it.

Two years ago, they gave that to me.

-Congratulations, Sophia. -Thank you, Sameera.

As you were both in Sri Lanka, surely you guys like bumped into each other?

You know, I was thinking, how exceptional this is.

This is crazy! I mean, we have two reigning CEOs with us.

-We should have a competition. -A what?

How about a pitch-off?

-Sorry? -Uh, so… what?

A pitch-off.

I'm game. Let's do it tomorrow?

-I don't think you understand, Digvijay. -I'm sorry.

No, I don't think you understand Digvijay, This was so embarrassing for me.

You said ours was a done deal.

We are a very experienced company, Digvijay.

We came here to close the deal and it's turned into a pitch.

And now there's another company.

Just ignore all that, my brother's an idiot. He talks nonsense.

How am I meant to ignore your brother? We're in Morpur and he's the Maharaja!

And so…

Look, Digvijay, with all due respect,

if you don't find a solution soon, I'll have to look for other options.

I can't keep my board hanging anymore.

- I'm on it. - Okay.

Just shut up and follow me.

- Okay, go. - Alright, yeah!

-Don't make him mad. -Calm down both of you, for God's sake!

Come and witness the state we're in.

Yuck!

You're both living in your own world. No responsibility. No business sense.

Yuck!

Oh, God, Diggy!

Where have you brought us, man? It smells really bad in here.

That smells like poop.

Yes. Correct.

Because it's a literal shithole.

I'm sorry?

As you can see, bats have been living here for years.

And thanks to them, we are receiving an annual income here.

By selling their droppings to an organic fertilizer company,

who come to pick up what's here.

Yeah, funny. Poop.

Shit.

Bat shit.

Oh, just laugh, go on. But it's the truth, isn't it? About Motibagh, yeah.

But ever since the walls have crumbled,

our beloved bats have also decided to leave.

-You both find this funny, do you? -Sorry.

You're both undervaluing the poo. No bats, no poo.

That's what starts the process. No poo, no fertilizer, no income!

Basically, without this, we'll be in deep financial--

Deep shit?

So good.

- Just crazy, guys. - Sorry.

-Okay, Diggy, stop. -Sorry.

Calm down. Jinnie, stop it.

-Yeah, I'll stop it. -Go on.

Apart from this, only our name is left.

If you want to save our status here,

we have to lock in a deal with Sophia now.

-And stop this Sameera nonsense. -Okay.

I mean, Diggy has a point.

- Oh, yeah, does he? - He does. Yeah.

An upstart entrepreneur can save us, huh? You believe that?

from this shithole?

Fizzy also has a point.

- You agree with him? Makes sense? - Dude.

-So we die here? In a corner? Lying down. -Calm down.

-Calm down. Relax. -I am calm.

Guys, I have an idea!

Now that both of them are here,

Let's just hear what both of them have to say,

and then we can just decide.

I mean, I have been saying that.

Yeah, but I said it just now, right?

This is the uninterrupted backside of the palace.

-But there's no guards. -You've been clocking that?

I have been. They've been following us everywhere.

Why would you ever wanna leave?

New York's got that Kate energy.

-And frankly, it just has better coffee. -It does have better coffee.

-It's just the coffee. -It's just the coffee. Come here.

Why did the lights turn off?

It's just a family ritual.

-Okay. -Yeah, we call it Pratha.

- Where are the candles? - I get that.

What the…

Your Majesty.

I'm sorry to disturb you.

But Her Majesty begs to see you.

What?

-Who's Her Majesty? -Umm…

That's my mom.

-Oh! -I'm gonna…

- Umm… Should I come? - No!

That's fine. Not just yet.

Okay.

This is amazing.

Oh.

There's no electricity anywhere except here?

-Aviraaj… -Oh, new weed babies.

I know. Aren't they lovely?

-Aviraaj? -Hmm?

I'm aware that you have started seeing that woman.

What are you talking about, Maa? What, which woman?

That unmarried lady and you cannot share the same room together.

Kate.

-Who says that she's unmarried? -Huh?

I'm not a kid, you know, Maa.

You are still Morpur's Maharaja, you know.

Unless you're planning for this girlfriend of yours

to become your Maharani.

Oh, a French Maharani. Bonjour.

Ça va? Je m'appelle Rambha.

Joie de vivre. C'est la vie. Bon appétit. Croissant.

Pas français. No croissant.

She's American.

-Aha! -Doesn't matter.

Stars and Stripes forever.

Maa, you can relax. She's not my girlfriend.

-So what is she? -I mean…

It's a situationship.

-Huh? -What on earth is that?

-What is situationship? -A casual, undefined relationship.

It means all things are possible here.

Without drama, however.

Ah! There's no way that's true. There's always going to be drama.

Oh, Paddy, you must see that you have a great deal to learn.

Hmm. And teach her privately, please. My situationship is waiting for me.

"Situationship." Yeah!

Huh?

-Undefined, casual relationship? -Causal relationship.

It's just a pitch, Sophia.

You're a strong girl.

You're a strong girl, Sophia.

If this project gets green-lit, then by the first quarter--

I'm really sorry, Kunal.

I am very thankful that you're a part of my life.

Every time I'm frustrated with work, I remove it on you and I just feel bad.

It's okay, as long as we're together.

-Professionally, I mean. -Of course.

-What did you think? -Exactly that.

-You thought something else? -Not at all.

Until now, people have learned about you from books or they've seen your pictures.

By staying with you at the Royal B&B,

our customers will be able to have an authentic experience

of your history, art and culture.

These are great.

Thank you.

Basically, your plan is to make a royal spectacle out of us.

Oh, not at all.

In fact, we want you to become the face of Indian royalty globally.

Raghanis.

Global leaders of luxury hospitality over the last 90 years.

Simply put, the best of the best.

Seven countries, 32 hotels, 21 award-winning restaurants.

Ten Michelin-star chefs.

But our credibility is built on something stronger.

Like Morpur, our brand is associated with values that we all share.

History,

tradition, and legacy.

And I assure you that only a 90-year-old company

can earn that reputation.

Fair point.

Our plan for visitors who come here is to arrive as guests,

and to leave here as your friends.

Some of our guests will learn how to cook your traditional recipes

from your head chef in your kitchen.

Some will even be able to celebrate festivals like Holi, Diwali with you.

And some while learning how to horse ride,

might even become friends with the famous round-eared Malani horses of Morpur.

These numbers, these projections… these are all fantastic.

But this will only be possible

if you're prepared to move out and live elsewhere.

What?

Sorry, Sameera, I think we're a bit confused.

Yeah, I can see that.

I apologize if I wasn't clear enough. Listen, let's be honest.

Motibagh needs renovating completely.

And to do that properly,

I'm sorry, but the property would need to be empty.

Surely there's another way.

Umm… I can imagine the hesitation for some of you.

But let me assure you that your palace is in really safe hands.

And after all, the palace will become a hotel in the future, right?

So eventually, you will have to move out.

Fair point.

The Royal B&B.

This will be a very authentic royal experience.

So it's important to us that all of you continue living here.

Without the royal family, the Royal B&B is impossible.

So, no panic.

♪ Who rules the world ♪

This couldn't have happened without your support, Zubin.

Of course, I'll keep you posted.

Bye.

Soph, you're so full of praise for Zubin.

I know a load of it's fake, but I'd like some too.

Kunal, the problem is I just can't thank you enough.

For example, what a brilliant presentation.

It exuded charm.

Well, the charm I'll take. Presentation was Keertana's.

-Well done, Keertana. -Thank you, ma'am.

Okay, can you two please stop flirting with each other?

It's really weird for me.

We aren't flirting. What are we doing, Kunal?

We are flirting.

Why did we ever break up?

Because we'd rather schedule a meeting than a date with each other.

Okay, that's a great time for everyone to have a drink.

Right.

Ma'am, Ma'am, talking about drinks,

Aviraaj sir's farewell party is happening. Kate invited us.

Should we go?

Guys, they are our new business partners, yeah?

We should go and make friends with everybody.

- Networking, Sir. Networking. - Right.

-Everybody? -Yes, Soph. Everybody.

-Everybody? -Guys, it's a big deal we've cracked here.

Let it just be us today. Hmm?

-It's boring, Soph. Tell him! -We should go.

We welcome all the participants to Gastronautics.

Today, the best chefs in India…

Hey, Diggy.

Oh? Um? Yeah?

I know your secret, bro.

S… Secret?

Yeah, I'm talking about Baba's single malts all being hidden here.

Uh-huh. Yeah…

Yeah.

But I'm gonna take them for Fizzy's party.

-Party? -Yeah.

To what party? Man, Fizzy loves noisy parties all the time.

I think he…

A party to drown out the inner noise, I would say.

But he's going to leave tomorrow, right? So…

Shouldn't you be overjoyed about that?

Diggy, might as well party.

Fizzy, I know you won't believe it, but it was good to see you, dude.

You won't believe it, but you were right.

- Am I ever as wrong as you? - Always.

- Let's go! - That's a lot of eye contact.

-Jinnie, we love you! -Jinnie, we love you!

-Tap out! I need a champagne. -Yeah, bring the champagne. Bring it.

- Excuse me. - We love you.

- Bring the whole bar! - It used to be my favourite…

What a great party, Jinnie.

Let's drink!

Niki.

She's our client. Don't complicate it.

-It complicates it, does it? -Hmm.

You've told him then, have you?

Cheers!

About what, though?

What "about what, though"?

-There's nothing to say here. -Really?

Really.

The Maharaja will leave tomorrow and then everything will be okay.

Oh, I've seen that look before.

Just go.

- Hey, guys. - Hi.

- Come on. - Me?

You. Come.

Hi.

-Hi. -How's your night?

Good.

Come dance.

-No. -Come on, it's my last night.

No!

No way.

You've not heard this song?

This was my parents' favourite song.

All right, ladies and gentlemen,

this song is dedicated to our favourite Maharaja,

HH Fizzy.

Your mound of Venus is so strong.

Are you fond of painting?

At college, it was one of my minors.

You seem like an artist for sure.

It says you're a dancer, too.

- I am? - Yeah.

I think the other day, both of us were a little too hasty in judging each other.

Forgive my error, Maharaja ji.

Forgive my error, Madam CEO.

-A question for you. -Hmm?

That song that was on earlier,

you said it was… your parents' favourite song.

What happened to them?

Now, may I ask you something?

Shoot.

Why are you going back to New York?

I know this house is a little small,

but your fan following here is quite huge.

You know, the fan following is huge everywhere.

Ah, really?

I see what you mean.

But I see no real reason for me to stay here.

Unless you can give me one.

I can.

Your people here.

Well, you are their favourite Maharaja.

I mean, can you blame them?

But you know what? I get it.

I love New York.

And I would say, you've become very used to it.

The air there,

the people there,

and Morpur is not New York, is it?

But luckily for you,

Digvijay loves Morpur and his responsibilities here.

So you can easily run away to New York.

So, it's a win-win, right?

Okay. Is that what you think of me?

Hmm?

So, Motibagh is a responsibility and I'm running away?

Huh?

You knew who I was earlier, didn't you?

-You knew it. -Sorry?

-This was all an act. -An act?

-An act for what? -You tell me.

Aviraaj, I don't even know what is it that you do here, Your Highness.

What exactly will I get from you? Huh?

Anyway, you are running away to New York.

Oh, hey, there you are!

Babe, I'm so drunk. How are we going to get past airport security?

-Ma'am, what are you doing? Let's go! -Kiki!

Hey, how's the Lord?

What's up with you, Lord? Huh?

Shots?

Speech. You need a speech. Come on, speech.

- Speech! - Speech!

What a fucking night.

What a fucking night.

It's finally happening.

Congrats, partner.

Congrats, partner.

Speech!

Speech!

-Speech! -Speech!

My dear brother, Aviraaj,

Handsome, house-trained,

is going back to New York.

I'm very sad, but I'm very happy,

he gets to return to his life in New York.

Aren't you happy?

And now, a proper farewell speech, Fizzy.

Speech!

I don't know when you will come back, so say goodbye lovingly, Fizzy.

I won't be saying goodbye lovingly, Jinnie…

because I am not going back to New York now.

-What? -What?

The responsibility of Morpur,

from now on, will be up to your favourite Maharaja.
