Original subtitles

Shyam sir..

Your handwriting is beautiful.

You'll score well just because of your handwriting.

I won't score well if I have good handwriting.

I will if I write correctly.

By the way, I give exam on the computer.

You're very intelligent, sir.

(Snaps finger) You'll qualify easily.

Just qualifying isn't enough.

I should score good marks.

Only then..

I'll get admission and scholarship in the college I want.

Won't you go to US if you don't get admission?

How can I?

Seriously?

I told all my friends on purpose..

That you're going to US.

What happens now?

That's exactly why..

My focus must be completely on my preparation.

True, sir.

You must focus.

So..

Don't bring up unnecessary matters to me.

Your dedication is amazing.

I give you my word, sir.

I won't burden you with anything.

I promise!

Thank you!

Hey, Balaraju bro..

Sit here.

What brings you here?

All well back home?

Of course, it's going great.

Hey.. lower your voice. Sit here.

All is well at home.

I recently had a son, right?

I've to get his birth certificate done.

The previous arrangement was good.

Everything was handled by Panchayat office.

Now, it should be done on a computer, apparently.

I was wondering if you could help.

You've got a computer, right?

Yes, we have a computer, but..

We don't do it here.

Srinu has setup a shop in town.

He takes up these kind of tasks there.

You go there and give him my name.

Oh.. okay!

What are these details?

Do they belong to your son?

Yes.

What did you name him?

Is it Ailaiah?

Is it Ailaiah?

Isn't it good enough?

It's good but..

Sounds a bit old-fashioned.

Old-fashioned?

World and it's trends keep changing, right?

Here, our Shyam sir is also leaving to US.

If your son also goes there after growing up..

This name could be hard to pronounce.

Oh.. in that case..

Why don't you suggest a nice name?

Good name...

You know Virat Kohli, right?

Take out Kohli from it and name him Virat.

As per astrology..

His name should start with A..

With A...

Shyam sir..

Suggest a good name starting with alphabet A.

It must be tendry.

It's not tendry..

It's called TRENDY!

Same thing, sir.

Please, sir.

If you suggest a good name..

Starting with A..

Name him Akira.

Akar?

I can hardly pronounce it.

Shyam sir..

What does Akira mean?

It means..

I can't recall now but..

Pavan Kalyan's son's name is Akira.

Really?

Pavan Kalyan's son's name?

Let's go ahead then, sir.

We'll finalize it.

Thank you, Secretary sir!

You suggested a nice name.

If I tell my wife, Padma..

That it's Pawan Kalyan's son's name..

She will be extremely happy.

I'll take leave, sir.

Bye!

Pawan Kalyan's son's name.

-Hello! -Shyam sir..

You suggested a very good name, sir.

Look at Balaraju..

He is delighted.

Is this what I told you?

Hmm..

There's no tea powder in office.

I took some from Shyam sir's kitchen.

No, he won't mind.

Our Shyam sir is a nice person.

Sarpanch sir!

You made it?

You make nice tea.

Shyam sir!

Thanks!

Shyam sir, there's no tea powder in office.

I took some from your kitchen.

By the way, Sarpanch sir!

I heard that the paddy field by your well is for sale.

You heard right. We're still negotiating.

But you said that..

It's of sentimental value for you, right?

Are you still planning to sell?

True!

It's sentimental.

When our Anu was a kid..

About five years old..

I bought it so that it'll come handy for her wedding.

The demand of dowry is about forty lakhs.

Including the large and small expenses..

It would come to ten to fifteen lakhs.

Meaning, Fifty five lakhs in total.

If they're demanding forty lakhs..

How much is the groom earning?

It's one lakh.

That's all?

I make almost same money, don't I?

Don't be stupid.

You make one lakh annually.

The groom makes one lakh monthly.

After all the deductions..

He makes eighty thousand in hand.

Damn these salaries!

Shyam sir! How much dowry will you demand?

I won't ask for any dowry.

He earns only twenty thousand a month.

Who will be willing to give him dowry?

May be they'll gift him a bike, that's all.

After clearing this exam, I'll get admission in US.

Once I get a job after finishing my studies..

Then, I'll start making twenty dollars..

Instead of twenty thousand rupees.

And I would still refuse to take dowry.

Yeah, right.

I, too, watched in TV.

Worse case..

The conversion rate of each dollar is..

Eighty Indian rupees.

What's the matter, sir?

What are you thinking about so seriously?

Listen..

He is a good guy..

Belongs to a good family..

Has a good job..

Inspite of all this..

If he is refusing to take dowry..

What does that mean, madam?

May be he has some kind of defect.

No.. no.. he is all good.

How do you know?

Right!

I get it now.

You're talking about the Secretary, right?

What about the Mamidikonda alliance?

They're demanding too much dowry.

We've got the paddy field..

For the purpose of our daughter's dowry, right?

Why are you so worried about it then?

He belongs to our caste..

Good at heart..

Well-educated..

He has a job and..

He's refusing to take dowry.

Also..

He and our Anu will make a good pair.

The groom's salary from Mamidikonda

Is one lakh rupees.

Our Secretary sir's salary is..

Twenty thousand.

Who will make our daughter happy..

Is for you to decide now.

Listen..

Let me tell you something.

His salary is just twenty thousand now.

Whatever exam he is preparing for right now..

If he qualifies for that exam..

He will fly to America.

Each penny of America is equivalent to..

Eighty pennies in India.

Do you've any idea how much he's gonna make?

On top of it..

Our Anu will also get to go to America.

Did any girl in our family get to go there?

Our girl will be the first to go to US.

Think about it.

Many people dream about it.

Even I..

Dreamt about studying well..

I, too, am trying very hard..

To do a signature by myself.

Is it happening, though?

Similarly..

Everyone who prepares for an exam won't qualify.

Only a few will qualify.

You first find out if your Secretary sir..

Is one among those who qualify.

One more thing..

To achieve one's goals..

Luck should favor..

And dedication is important, too.

Shyam sir!

Hmm...

What did you type, Naresh?

You spelled everything wrong.

You typed bull instead of full..

Hand instead of sand..

It was a typo, sir.

Okay!

Done.

Do you wanna go home?

It would be nice if I can leave early, sir.

It makes my wife happy.

Go ahead.

Shyam sir, you're such a nice person.

Thank you, sir.

-See you tomorrow! -Okay.

Hmm.. I'm coming home early today.

Let's go and watch a movie.

Okay?

Hmm..

Hey you, Assistant!

Is your Secretary available in the office?

Is the Secretary in the office?

Yes, he is. Why though?

He has put Panchayat tasks aside..

And changing names instead. That's why!

How dare he changes kids' names?

Paddu..

Please! Don't go.

Listen to me, please!

We can discuss and decide.

Are you the Sam sir?

It's not Sam, it's Shyam.

Pronounce my name correctly, first.

Since we don't pronounce your name properly..

Are you going about giving random names to other's kids?

Giving a name is not..

Same as signing on a paper.

Why are you yelling like that?

He's the Secretary of this Panchayat office.

Really? Don't I know?

We're okay with you giving us roads and lights..

But who gave you the right to..

Change names that we gave to our kids?

What's wrong with the name Akira?

It's Pawan Kalyan's son's name.. Akira!

Just because you named your son same as Pawan Kalyan's son..

It doesn't make you Pawan Kalyan, okay?

Madam, one minute!

He was the one who asked to suggest a new name.

So I did. That's it.

Why are you dragging me into this..

As if I changed it because I didn't like it?

I don't care.

You suggested the name.

Now, he wants to name our son the same.

He is already crazy about movies.

You convince my husband..

And send him home.

You please don't worry about all this, Secretary sir!

She always does this.

No matter what, I'll name my son Akira.

Yes!

There you go again.

Ailaiah is final.

-Akira.. -Ailaiah..

-Only Akira.-Hello.. hello..

Take this argument to your home.

This is Panchayat office. Not here.

Listen..

If I don't see Ailaiah in the birth certificate..

I dare you!

Look at him..

Started a fight between us and enjoying his tea.

We'll name him Akira, sir. You don't worry.

Paddu..

What happened, sir?

I saw Balaraju leaving.

Get out!

Get lost!

In a village..

There happened a fire accident.

A temple and a hospital..

Were burning down.

In that case..

Where would the ambulance go first to put off the fire?

Yes, Sarpanch sir!

Secretary sir!

I sent you a tough question over the message.

I, also, gave you sixty seconds time to answer that.

I saw the blue ticks indicating that you saw my message.

And the sixty seconds time is up.

But I didn't receive your answer.

Sir, I'm in the middle of something.

That's okay.

I'll give you another sixty seconds.

It's simple.

Is it the hospital, the temple or the police station?

Among these three.

Where will the ambulance go first to put off the fire?

Why is an ambulance putting off fires these days?

You get into useless matters just to pass time.

Secretary sir!

Your sixty seconds are up.

Give me the answer.

Same thing. Why will an ambulance put off fire?

No.. no..

You overheard our conversation over the call, right?

Sir, please!

I'm preparing for the exam. Don't disturb me.

Please don't mind.

Secretary sir!

If you fail to answer such a simple question..

How are you going to manage in the America exam?

These forwarded messages aren't asked in the GMAT exam, sir.

They're way tougher.

I can't waste time on these silly questions.

Bye!

What's the matter, Krishna Rao?

An interested buyer is coming to see the farm tomorrow morning..

You'll be home, right?

I might change my mind about selling the fields, Krishna Rao.

If that changes in future, I'll let you know.

Is it? Sure, Sarpanch sir.

Okay.

[Loud knocking on the door]

I'm coming..

Why are you here in this odd hour?

I don't have anything to do.

I'm unable to sleep.

I just wanted to check..

If you're focusing on your studies properly.

That's it.

I'm preparing well.

Why are you worried about my studies, by the way?

Why are you surprised, Mr. Secretary?

You're talking as if I never supported you..

And never let you study.

Take your seat.

If our boy..

Does well in the exam..

And scores well..

Isn't it a proud moment for us?

Continue with your studies.

Did you have your dinner?

-Yes, I did. -Okay, carry on!

Are these two books enough?

No, there are a lot more.

I decided to study these two for today.

What kind of questions do they ask usually?

There are certain things called verbal and quant.

All these weren't part of our studies.

No quantum, beentum.. nothing!

There's a new kind of education emerging everyday.

Anyways, please continue.

Looks like you missed this one.

No, I didn't forget that.

I left it out.

It was a tough one.

So, I decided to do it later.

Secretary sir!

Please don't mind me saying..

If we step back when tough times are in front of us..

We move away from our goal, too.

Everytime we want to move forward..

Tough times are right there.

And they won't let us move ahead.

That's exactly when..

We should stand firmly..

Face it and move forward.

I didn't leave it because I was unable to..

I just wanted to do it later.

If you leave it in spite of being able to..

It's a blunder.

You say you can do it..

And that you're able..

Right?

To find out if you'll qualify or not..

Let's do a small..

What's it called...

Ummm...

Yes, let's do a trial by fire.

-Hmm! -I'll be right here.

You said you can, so do it.

You've three minutes to finish.

Meaning a hundred and eighty seconds.

-Okay. -Let's see.

Sir, the answer is thirty six.

Option D.

Answers are in Page no. 126, check yourself.

You did it in two-and-half minutes.

Right answer.

[Phone ringing]

Hello!

There's a fight at Balaraju's house?

Is it?

A fight at Balaraju's house?

Why though?

No idea. Let's go and see.

Alright. I'm coming.

Should we go to the thaanda now?

Obviously!

What is this, Secretary sir?

How could you advise something like this?

Because of your advice..

Their marriage might end.

Madam, how can you blame me?

He asked for it, so I suggested.

That's all.

That's what I mean..

Before you give any advice..

You must think about the pros and cons.

See what's happening now..

They both had a fight..

And didn't even cook anything.

Please say something..

I'm famished.

See? That's the situation.

What should we do now?

I've an idea.

What's that?

-Let's vote! -I knew it..

That you would come up with this idea.

Please decide something.

I'm very hungry.

I ate nothing since morning.

I won't light the stove until there's no solution.

See what you've done.

We could do this, actually..

We can opt that the baby gets to choose his name.

Then, there's no need to fight.

How is it possible, Secretary sir?

How can a new born baby..

Select his name?

He won't be able to speak until he's three.

How can he be nameless until then?

I'm not saying that the baby should speak to do that.

Let's show him two fingers.

One finger represents.. the name we..

Um.. I mean, the name you like..

The other one represents the name madam likes..

Whatever the baby picks, is the winner.

In that case, bigger finger goes with the name I picked.

Let's do it.

Finally!

Did you see that, madam?

Secretary put an end to such a big fight..

With such a simple solution.

-Hmm.. -Will you agree now, that he is smart?

Is he going to write about fights between wife and husband..

In the exams he's gonna take..

To do well and qualify?

It's not just about that fight, madam..

I went and gave him a test, actually.

I gave him a tough question..

And asked him to do it in three minutes..

He did it in just five seconds.

He is a clever boy.

I'm telling you..

He'll definitely do well in the exams.

Let's assume he did..

So what?

Actually, I was thinking..

Let's discuss first and then talk to him later.

See.. you donno what you're talking about.

Why are you in a rush?

I mean, Anu will get to go to America, right?

Let's do this..

Why don't we ask Anu?

What does Anu know about it?

You chose one guy and I chose one.

Assuming that one of us will feel bad..

If she marries a guy of the other's choice..

She might refuse to marry in the first place.

No, I've a solution though.

Yes!

Hey, Naresh!

Why is the Secretary sir late?

May be the bus is delayed, sir.

Why do you ask so many times?

You look more worried than he is.

No.. no. Not at all.

Carry on with your work.

Secretary sir, did you do well?

You're going to America, right?

[Knock on the door]

-Secretary sir! -Shyam sir!

Secretary sir!

Shyam sir!

Naresh..

Why did he shut the door?

May be he didn't do well in the exam.

I'm leaving.

Where are you going, sir?

-I've to call the alliance from Mamidikonda.

I've got to take care of few things. See you!

Poor Shyam sir.

For the sake of this exam..

He got solar lights, candles..

And studied very hard.

But..

Hey..

No matter how hard someone works..

Destiny should be in our favor, too!
