Original subtitles

Hurry.

Get inside.

Wow, Chander!

I was expecting something else.

That's the problem.

What were you expecting, anyway?

Something boring.

A house with zero personality.

Excuse me?

I'm not boring at all, as you can see.

I'm a bit less colorful than you, but…

that's about it.

Anyway, I was thinking…

If I don't find another PG,

should I just move in here?

What's wrong?

- Seriously? - Yeah, is there a problem?

No, there's…

There's no problem, but I was just thinking that

we just met a few days ago.

Relax. I was just kidding.

Kidding?

You know, your face has

that kind of energy.

What kind of energy?

Like you're…

a virgin guy,

bringing a girl home for the first time.

Another assumption.

You know, I've always wanted

someone to come over to my place at 2:00 a.m.

But it ended up being you.

Dried apricot, dried kiwi…

What about dried raisins?

- Hey! - Hey!

I'm just checking whether my Preet's blog has gone viral yet.

Not every blog goes viral.

Well, yours should. You're such a good writer.

Have you heard of the travel vlogger Sagarika Chhetri?

She wants to come and interview us.

She also wants to showcase our cafe.

- Should I say yes to her? - What's all this, man?

I know, I know, but it could really benefit the cafe.

So, please.

Well, this cafe is yours, and so is Chander Sharma.

Your wish is my command.

Cute.

Preet.

Thank you.

I know I don't say it very often, but…

C, if you're going to say nice things about me, do it with some style.

Alright then!

No, but I mean it.

You are my reason for being, Preeti.

Musafir Cafe,

this little life we've built…

Everything.

None of this would've been possible without you.

So…

So, I'll…

close up the kitchen.

And then?

And then we'll head home and finish our dance.

- Dance? - Yup.

Okay.

You know,

the things you couldn't express are written all over your book choices.

What did you gather, Madam Lawyer?

Why you ran away from software engineering.

Turns out you're a dreamer.

Something's stirring inside you, right?

As if you're in search of something.

- Right? - Spread the sheets.

You can take the bed.

I'll set up mine outside.

Will you be able to sleep there?

If I sleep here, I don't think I'll be able to.

A swing!

Do you drink?

Once a month or so,

a small drink makes me feel so good.

Same. Same.

This bottle belongs to my friend.

I don't drink much.

So why today?

To impress me?

You're already impressed, or else you wouldn't be here.

At this hour of the night, at the house of a rejected marriage proposal.

That's the problem with life.

People like you show up a little late.

And people like you don't stay long.

Right?

Chander?

Just checking you didn't get scared and run away.

I'm terrified, but where would I go?

This is my house.

If you fell, a fracture was guaranteed.

How could I have fallen? You were there.

If I hadn't shown up, what would have happened to your travelers?

How would everyone get Queen Preeti Kaushik's expert guidance?

What did I train you for?

Let it go.

Okay then.

- See you in the evening. Bye. Take care. - Your group is ready.

I know.

Bye.

C, wait.

I'll see you.

Ishan.

Thank you.

- Hello. - Hi.

Don't fangirls bother you?

Not at all.

In today's social media age,

if someone reads an entire book with love,

I don't see it as a bother but as motivation.

Anyway, today's question.

- Ready? - Always.

The most memorable moment from your favorite solo adventure.

Something that left a deep impression on you.

Turtuk.

India's last village. In Ladakh.

- Have you been there? - Take me with you next time.

- Why not? - No, I…

I meant it.

You know, I've known you for three months,

but there's one thing I don't get.

What now?

I don't know, but whenever we meet and talk, I keep wondering

what this girl has been doing in the same place for three years!

There's something you don't want to let go of.

I've also found something.

Rahil, you don't need

grand plans in life, only simple ones.

If plans become too grand, there's no space left for life.

So, I truly live in the moment.

I spoke to my publisher.

What?!

Man, I shouldn't have told you!

Listen, writing my blog is only my hobby.

I'm not a serious writer like you.

I'm officially trapped now.

You've been trapped for the last three months, Preeti.

You just don't want to admit it.

Do people in your age group really flirt this way?

Age group? Wait…

Only the flirting style changes with age.

The intent remains the same.

But you only read a few pages.

That was more than enough.

Your travelogues will be very unique, Preeti.

I wonder how many girls want to travel alone,

and all they need

is a little bit of Preeti Kaushik in their lives to inspire them.

You know, travelers don't just…

change their location.

They also travel within themselves.

You're only paused, not tied down.

Write.

For yourself.

Thanks for the tea. Bye.

Walking down new paths is always a little scary.

But perhaps that's exactly what tells you a new chapter is beginning.

You tried to make coffee?

Correction, my lord.

Your kitchen feels less like a kitchen and more like a chemistry lab.

You should have asked for permission.

My coffee machines have a very weak emotional system.

Your machines' or yours?

- Chai. - Change.

Your chai.

Thank you.

This tea is ridiculously good!

Thank you.

I'd say I'm pretty lucky.

A place to live, and quite a grand one too.

And now this heavenly tea.

Wow! Chander!

If your next flat doesn't have a lift, I'm not coming, bhaiya.

Good morning.

She's a friend.

No, not a friend. She's a friend's sister.

Remember Sonu, who came over last week? She's his sister.

So, she'll stay with us for a few days.

She's a guest.

No.

This is Sudha.

- Did he make tea? - Yes.

He really makes great tea, doesn't he?

Yes, I was just praising it.

I'm glad you came.

Sometimes, I feel like even these walls must be bored.

Of him and all his books!

Didi?

What did I say?

I'm saying you enjoyed the tea, right?

You should stay a few more days then.

Bhaiya, I brought the groceries.

It's worth 300 rupees.

- Wait, I'll pay. - I got it.

We'll settle it later.

Alright, I'll come later.

Aren't you going to Indore today, bhaiya?

Yes.

I'll see you again, right?

- Yes. - Yes.

Didi!

Don't worry, bhaiya.

I didn't see anything, and I didn't hear anything.

- Aunty Tyagi won't find out either. - Thank you.

Bhaiya…

Your didi is amazing!

You're pretty amazing too.

Yes, sir. Yes, I'm fully prepared for the closing.

Yes, sir. I'll see you in court in an hour.

Should I drop you off at court?

No, it's okay.

I have a hearing at 11 o'clock, so…

I'll leave in half an hour after my final prep.

Okay.

Hey, listen.

Is it okay if I stay another night?

Just until I decide what my next move is.

Gargi's already called six times anyway, so I'll figure something out.

Take your time.

It'll take me two days to get back. So…

feel at home.

Okay, bye.

Listen.

Thank you.

I didn't say that out of formality.

I meant it from the heart.

If I don't leave now…

it'll be too late.

- Bye. - Bye.

Perhaps my learned friend didn't consider

that if my client only wanted money,

why would she stay with a man

who subjected her to daily physical and mental torture for seven years?

Section 13, sub-section one,

sub-clause IA of the Hindu Marriage Act

clearly defines physical and mental cruelty as grounds for divorce.

Your Honor, my client doesn't just want money.

She demands the right to live as a human being.

That's all, Your Honor.

Thank you so much, Sudha ji.

No, ma'am, it's my job.

- Bye. - Bye.

Well done, Sudha.

- Thank you, sir. - Congratulations.

Thank you.

There's a very big firm in Mumbai,

and they need a lawyer like you.

So, I recommended your name.

Think about it. I'll share the details with you.

But I think you're ready for it.

Thank you, sir.

Yes, Mom, it might be a good proposal, but not right now.

Mom, "not right now" doesn't mean never.

I just need a little more time right now, that's it.

I will, I definitely will.

Yes, okay. Take care of yourself.

I'm hanging up. Bye.

- What's her name, Chander? - Whose, sir?

The one whose messages make you smile every ten minutes.

No, sir, it's nothing like that.

THE MUMBAI OFFER IS CONFIRMED. JUST NEED TO DECIDE ON THE CALL TOMORROW

GIVE ME YOUR TEA RECIPE FOR TOMORROW MORNING. YOU'RE SPOILING ME.

When you get bored with logistics,

you should set up your own cafe.

Sorry.

I'm pretty late today.

What are you reading?

Rafael Thakur.

Yuck! What a terrible author.

Speaking of terrible authors…

Rahil seems interesting.

Firstly, he's not terrible at all.

Secondly, he's just a friend.

Yeah, when did I say he was anything else?

One second.

I've never seen you notice all this before.

I notice everything, madam.

I just never have to act on it.

Because people come to Musafir Cafe,

but before they leave, they end up becoming

permanent members of Preeti Kaushik's fan club.

And you?

What's your role in this fan club?

Me?

I'm the founder. Resident Fan.

So, Mr. Resident Fan, I have a small request.

Tell me.

Next time you feel even a little jealous,

please just tell me!

You have no idea what your jealousy does to my heart.

What? Jealous?

Look, I don't need to be jealous.

- Oh, please! - I have no reason to be jealous.

Because what we have

is my reality.

For people like your Rahil,

it's just a distant dream.

I want to show you something.

Now?

- You have such a bad sense of timing! - Okay!

So, a reading room, a performance room,

a meditation room,

and four studio apartments on the first floor.

That's it.

This is beautiful, but you know I…

Isn't this extension plan a bit much?

The cafe and guesthouse were your dream, C.

And the artist residency is mine.

Yeah, of course, I know that. But…

I was just thinking, isn't this a huge commitment?

Think it through. I just want you to be sure.

What makes you think I'm not?

Of course, I am.

Yeah. Fine.

Who hides whiskey?

Is your mom coming for a surprise inspection?

Well, when there's a senior criminal lawyer at home,

you have to hide it.

Turning a divorce lawyer into a criminal lawyer

is convenient for this conversation.

Did you eat?

Yeah. Didi made kebabs and roti.

With a lot of love.

You know, she even bought me flowers.

Nice.

By the way,

without you, the house is so quiet.

What's happening to me?

Why does this intoxication keep growing?

Why does my heart long to soar?

You are the reason why

Once again

My feet have begun to dance

And if the ground slips away beneath us

Let's spread our wings and fly

Oh, every day

Find your way into my arms

Whatever the world may say

Let's keep moving as one, every day

Somehow, with you, my love

I've become a wanderer

Come, let's take flight once again

Come on

Oh, every day

Find your way into my arms

Whatever the world may say

Let's keep moving as one, every day

Let's soar once more

Find your way into my arms

Whatever the world may say

Let's keep moving as one, every day

Every day

Weren't you supposed to return the day after tomorrow?

I had to check something important.

What?

Without you, my love…

That you didn't run away.

My heart refused to be still

Whatever the world may say

Let's keep moving as one, every day

Oh, every day

Let the morning find me with you

You take one step And I'll take one beside you, every day
