All language subtitles for Karwaan (2018)_track3_[eng]

Careful, mister!

Will you take us to God
before we get to the temple?

Bus travels are no less tedious
than a pilgrimage.

Are you a writer?

Is this your first time to Gangotri?

No.

I hear it's beautiful.

It's the source of the river Ganges.

No. Actually...

it begins from Gaumukh.

Nineteen kilometers ahead of Gangotri.

Really?

I had no idea.

I'll surely visit and then
go see my daughter.

My daughter stays in Kerala.

I have a granddaughter too.

She's very smart.

Her name is Tanya.

Your family?

Family?

I have a son. He's in Bangalore.

Really?

I hear Bangalore's nice.

Is he married?

Hey, bro.

How are you?

I'm fine. How're things with you?

All good.

Shall we get a beer?

Where have you been?

The office keeps me busy, so...

When's your next show?

We have the venue...

and footfalls have increased.

When you first exhibited,
we were just starting out.

Let me know...

if you have new photographs,
I'll set up a date for you.

Photography?

Start playing the traditional drums, too.

Offer a package deal for weddings.

Avinash?

Just give me a date.

I've given up photography.

But sir, if you've downloaded
a pirated version of our software,

it can't be covered under warranty.

Pirated or not...
it's still your software.

But, how can we guarantee
pirated software?

I don't care.

Your software, your responsibility...
now give me a solution!

I'm sorry, sir. We can't do anything.

Next time, buy the original.

Hey, mister.

I can sue you.

Unbelievable!

You've committed a crime
and you'll sue us?

My uncle's a senior lawyer.

-Wait and see what I can do.
-Yeah, we'll see.

Is this our customer-relations policy?

-Sir, he wasn't a customer.
-Company guidelines... number 14.

He who isn't already a customer,
is a potential one.

Sir, he's...

It's protocol to speak
to a customer politely.

Now I understand why we get
so many complaints.

You aren't interested in the job at all.

-Sir, it's not that...
-Really?

Why didn't yesterday's report
have the cover sheet?

Sir, the cover sheet is pointless.
It's a waste of paper.

And you're a waste of space!

Don't forget that you're here
because of my dad.

He held you in high regard.

I don't know why.

But if you want to continue working here,
then pull up your socks, dammit.

Sir, there's a call from the
service provider.

Buddy, we're an IT company
and our internet's always down.

What's the problem? Is this a joke?

I've told you a hundred times
to get this problem fixed.

Okay? Problem... fixed! Get it?

What is this?

Every month we have the same complaint.
We are an IT company...

Our WiFi is shit!

I'm Amey, by the way.

Hi... Avinash.

Why didn't you give it back to him?

He can't multitask.
He can either listen or understand.

Are you happy with this job?

I've made my peace. Are you happy here?

-Actually... I've just joined.
-I've got my answer. Coffee?

So...

-Goodnight.
-Thank you.

-Hello?
-Hello. Sir, I'm calling from Aaja Travel.

Can I speak to Mr. Avinash?

Speaking.

How is Mr. Prakash Rajpurohit
related to you?

He's my father.

Sir, your father is dead.

What?

He booked a tour with our company.

That bus met with an accident.
Extremely sorry for your loss, sir.

Mr. Avinash?

Yeah?

Your father had listed you
as an emergency contact.

We've sent the body to you
at our expense.

It should reach your local airport
by tomorrow.

Collect it from there.

The cargo bill number
will be sent to you via SMS.

Can I confirm the number?

Is it, 9845373547?

Yes, but...

Thank you for your time.

Hello?

Hello, sir.
This is your friend, Ranjan.

What's your dream destination?

I just got a call from someone
from your office.

She mentioned a bus accident...

That's why I recommend flying.

I'll offer you reasonable packages
to the Far East.

Awesome places, sir.
So... shall I book it?

Listen to me.

Let me speak to the lady
I had spoken to earlier.

Sir, this is the company's call center.

There are thousands of employees here.

What was the lady's name?

Name...

I'm sorry I don't know.

A bus to Gangotri has met
with an accident...

Sir, I handle bookings.

I'll transfer your call
to customer service.

Please hold.

Have you no ambition?

Arts students just talk
about changing the world.

Live a pauper's life
off their parents' money.

And they consider it a revolution.

Bloody frauds!

Shastri uncle has offered you a job.

People die to work in the IT sector.

Just accept it.

They buried us alive, to destroy us.

Little did they know that we are seeds.

Our burial is our redemption.

And love,
don't be in such a hurry to bear fruit.

You haven't come of age.

You'll be taken to a bigger space...

and you can spread your wings there.

Alright?

Shaukat...

Shaukat.

Buddy, what a surprise!

All okay?

My father's no more.

(Prayer) We belong to the Almighty
and to him we shall return.

But... how?

Accident.

He was going for a pilgrimage and...

He went to visit the Almighty...
and He kept him forever!

Buddy, it'll be okay.

Don't cry. You're a brave child.

May you find the strength.

I'm... I'm fine.

We're both orphans now.

But remember one thing, Avinash.

I'll never let you feel
your father's absence.

For now, I don't need a dad.

I need your van.

His body will be
at the airport tomorrow.

I want to borrow your van.

What's to ask?

I've never even met my dad.

Your dad gone is like my dad's gone.

And why just the van, I'll come, too.

I've never even met him.

Sir, please hurry up.

I've been waiting for a while.

I'm working, too. Just a minute.

Doesn't seem like it.

Sorry... sorry.

Bye.

Name?

Avinash Rajpurohit.

Reference number?

-SAPB... 3212.
-SAPB...

Hey...

get coffin number two.

Rascals spend
all their time on their phones.

Identity card.

Why?

We need photo identification.

What if you're a thief
and sell off a kidney?

Here's my driving license.

Must say, you've lost a lot of weight.

Are you following a diet?

Can I please take the coffin?

What should we do?

I'm not keen on
a prayer meeting or ceremonies.

No one knows him here.

True.

There's an empty plot
behind the service station.

It's a perfect spot to bury him.

What rubbish?

Why not?

I'll vouch for it.

He'll chill there.

We can even keep an eye on him.

We cremate the dead.

What the...

You guys torch the body.

Alright. Wood it is, then.

Should we burn him there?

There's some diesel, too.

I'm not particularly close to him.

But, the last rites...
should be done right.

Fine.

I wanted to make an inquiry.

Where's the closest electric crematorium?

Can't we see the body burn?

No, sir.

So, how does one feel the loss?

It's quite a lame system.

What the...

Now I get why you wanted
to torch the body.

What?

I didn't know this side of you?

-What do you mean?
-You'll be cursed by the dead.

How much for a kidney?

I have no clue what you're saying.

Really? You don't? Come.

Is this your dad?

Sir, shall we proceed?

You've given me the wrong body.

-It's your fault!
-No... yours!

You should've checked before leaving.

Before you leave a store,
don't you check your cart?

The coffin was sealed.
The paperwork was right.

You guys messed up
such an important delivery!

Mess up?

We haven't messed up anything.

And listen... our cargo company
is the best.

Your goods have reached you.
Now, leave.

What do you mean he's busy?
It's urgent.

Now, who the hell is this?

-Yes? What's the problem?
-Where's my sister's stuff?

How the hell should I know?
And who are you?

I'm Latha Nambiar's brother.

Now, who the hell is that?

My sister. What a question...

Look, my sister died in a bus accident.

Sir, I have your sister...

I mean... her body.

But the travel agency said that
they couldn't find her body.

Just some personal effects.

Oh. I have an entire body...

-What nonsense is this?
-Exactly.

Please calm down, both of you.

Enough!

Both of you... sit!

And give me the reference code.

Damn the reference code.

FLPM7818.
I know it by heart.

That's it!

Both of you will remain calm.

[Alone, this journey I tread, you
joined along to take this caravan ahead]

-Where's this gate?
-I don't know.

Let's ask him.

Excuse me?

We seem to have taken a wrong turn.

Where's the departure gate?

Why don't you guys bathe?

Sorry? I'm afraid I don't understand.

Cannabis has made you brain dead.
How will you understand?

Cannabis? He's selling us stuff.

Yes... cannabis.
Always ready, aren't you?

Junkies.

If the whole world heads to Goa
in search of peace,

who'll do real work?

Chill.

Why is he getting agitated?

How will the world function?

I see a cop. Wait there. I'll be back.

Just see. He ran away. Chicken!

No.

We have nothing matching that name.

No... no. Look, they're
my sister'spersonal effects.

Please check properly.

I just checked in front of you.

This consignment had only two bodies.
There was nothing else.

You guys are unbelievable.

First, you told me to go
to Kochi to collect a parcel.

I went there... they said,
"Pick the parcel from Bangalore."

Is this a joke?

Calm down, sir.

You're getting breathless.

Let's not burden the family
with two deaths.

What nonsense is this!

I'm going to report this.

Sir, I was just concerned.

I'm going to report this!

Do you see? He doesn't understand.

I checked in front of you.

Sir, you mentioned that
you've received only two bodies.

If consignment had onIy two bodies,
and I have someone else's body...

that means the other person
has my father's body.

Where was that body dispatched?

-Kochi.
-Kochi?

Here's the number.

-Fine?
-Thank you.

Why do you dress so scantily?

What will you do
with the remaining fabric?

Are you saving it
for poor kids in Africa?

Africa? No, Europe...

Shaukat, come on.

Just a minute. Let the lady respond.

I'm waiting.

Dad's body may be in Kochi.

Please excuse me...

There's a corpse at stake.

How did he reach Kochi?

There was a mix up.

Why don't you check
if he's even dead?

Hope he is not playing a dirty joke?

The cops didn't understand
what I was saying either.

Don't worry about it.
This guy is nice... Shaukat.

He gave me the directions.

We have to go that way.

Shall we take a photo with him?

Come, come... photo.

Fantastic.

Perfect.

Thank you.

Live large!

Bye.

Hello? Ms. Tahira Moidenkutty?

Speaking.

This is Avinash from Bangalore.

-I think my father's coffin is...
-With me.

Thank God you called.

I didn't know what to do.

I have received a wrong coffin, too.

My mother's.

So, how do we do this?

I run a hotel in Fort Kochi.

Right now, I'm stuck here. But...

Can your husband
or a relative come to Bangalore?

I wish I could.
But you see, I'm a single mother.

Besides my mother and daughter...

now... even mom's gone...

She's crying.

Say, "I love you."
She's vulnerable. She's yours.

Alright. I... please calm down.

I'll meet you half way.

Where should we meet?

-Coimbatore?
-Coimbatore?

Coimbatore isn't half way.
She's playing you.

Never trust a crying woman
or the milkman.

Okay. I'll work out a plan
and get back to you.

-Okay, thank you.
-Take care.

So, Avinash...

What are your plans for the long weekend?

I'm going to Coimbatore.

Coimbatore? Nice.

To pick up my father's dead body.

-Hi.
-Hi.

Going somewhere?

I'm going to Coimbatore
to drop off a...

package.

-For a client.
-I see.

I've secured the corpse down tightly.

We can go as fast as we want.
The coffin won't budge.

-It's not what it sounds like.
-No...

Goodnight.

I can explain...

This building complex is nice.

Good you decided to move.

Ever since you moved out,
we face so many problems...

Water shortage...

It's a long list!

Uncle... uncle.

Get away!

Mr. Rehmat, Shaukat has vamoosed.

I think he's leaving the city.

Tell me, what I should do?

I want to hold an exhibition.

Is this your age to experiment?

And with something
you aren't sure can pay the bills.

But I know that I can be
a good photographer.

So, was software engineering
to while away time?

You were on the merit list.

Dad, I love photography.

Alright. Do as you please.

If you've decided anyway,
why this discussion?

Go on, then!

Invite everyone.

Make a spectacle of yourself.

And of me too.

-Hello?
-Avinash...

Tahira, what happened?

My daughter... Tanya...
was going to reach here today.

But, she's missing.
Her mobile's switched off, too.

Okay.

I even called the college.

But, everyone's away
for the long weekend.

No one answers
the office phone at night.

I don't know what to do.

When did you speak to her last?

Last night.

I told her about mom.

She was very upset.

She was very close to mom.

And, now...

Oh God!

Tahira, crying will achieve nothing.

Tell me, where's her college?

What the...

Ooty. SFS College.

How about this...

-I'll go to Ooty.
-What the...?

-It's on our way.
-Ooty's not on our way.

I'll go to her college and find out.

It's the absolute opposite direction.

Don't flirt on a funeral trip.

-Could you do that?
-Sure.

Don't cry.

I've reached Mysore already.

Ooty is three hours away.

It could take four hours, too.
Depends on the driver.

I'll call you from there.

Thank you, Avinash.

I'll message you Tanya's details.

Take care, Tahira.

Take care?

Have you taken responsibility
of the entire world?

Are you the Mandela of South India?

We're already ferrying
an unknown aunt's body in our van.

Now, you'll go to a college
and pick up an unknown girl?

Dude, she was crying.
What could I do?

Think about it, Shaukat.
We'll earn blessings.

My van runs on diesel,
not blessings.

She'll have to pay up.

Mister, one coffee.

As per records, Tanya
hasn't left the campus.

Every student has to sign out
when they leave.

By the way, Tanya didn't even mention
that she wants to go home.

There she is.

-Tanya?
-Tanya.

No. Not this one.

Tanya Moiden something.

-Moidenkutty.
-Yes?

Sir.

Excuse me.

Your mom's waiting for you at home.

You were to leave yesterday?

What the hell are you saying?

Okay. Come with me.

Why should I go anywhere with you?

Who are you?

Listen, mister... I'm not getting
a good vibe from you.

I'm calling the security...

-Security!
-Chill... chill.

You're very strange.

There's been a death at home
and you're behaving like this?

Excuse me?

Death?

Don't you know?

What?

Your... grandmother
met with an accident.

Your mom called you the day before?

You're Tahira's daughter, right?

Yes.

Oh, no.

How could I forget?

You forgot?

Mom did call.

-But I had had too much to drink.
-You were drunk?

My phone died.

I kept it to charge...

But, who are you?

My dad was in the same accident
as your grandmother.

Oh. I'm sorry.

The travel agency sent the body.

But, not to me.

To your mom.

And I got your grandmother.

I'm going to meet your mom
for an exchange.

-To Coimbatore.
-You mean...

Grandma's body is here with you?

Yes.

The body's decomposing rapidly.

We might need some dry ice.

I'm sorry. I should've...

We'll buy it along the way.

Sounds good.

I'll get my bag.

This girl can't ride with us.

Why not?

Buddy, her legs are fully bare.

What?

I can't allow such
exposure in my van.

Please, don't do this.

No, bro.
Rules are rules.

Tell her to cover up.

Talk to her, bro. It's very important.

This is my van. Not a strip club.

Tanya...

-It might get cold en route.
-So?

Why don't you...
wear something longer?

I can't believe this.

Creep.

Don't misunderstand.

Tanya...

Let's go, driver.

Bloody hell...

Excuse me?

What the hell did you just say?

Miss, if you cuss again in English,

I'll stuff you in the box
with your grandma.

Listen...

-I can't do this.
-What happened?

Get rid of her.

-Bro... Shaukat.
-I'm not taking her along.Make her go.

You insisted we leave at night.
I agreed, didn't I?

It's your turn now.
Let her ride in your van.

Please. For me.

-For you?
-Yes.

For you, I'd even eat my vegetables.

Come.

Listen, miss.

I'm not a driver.
I own this van.

You're a guest in here.

-That's why, I forgive you.
-Whatever.

Come on.

Yes, Tahira.

Tanya's with me.
Nothing to worry about.

Thank you so much, Avinash.
But, where was she?

She was... very upset about
losing her grandmother.

She had locked herself
in her room.

Everyone has their way
of dealing with grief.

-Why don't you speak to her?
-Avinash...

I was so stressed,
I haven't left yet.

I can leave in an hour.

But you'll have to wait a little.

It will take me around
four hours to reach...

We'll come to you.
Take care of the hotel.

Buddy, you take care of yourself.

Are you sure?

Yeah. No problem.

Are you kidding?
It's such a long drive.

I can drive.

I'd rather die!

Why don't you speak to Tanya...

-Hi, mom.
-Hi, Tanya.

Are you okay?

I'm okay.
Are you okay?

What's gotten into you?

It's my van. Let me have a say.

The van might give up!

You wanted us to go on a drive...
spend time together...

This drive's gotten slightly longer.

-That's good, isn't it?
-Slightly?

It feels like I've been driving
since my teens.

So, what's this Avinash fellow like?

He's okay.

He seems to be a sweet guy.

How will the cow get down from there?

I'm speaking in Hindi, madam.

What's this box?

Latha Nambiar...

It's a Kottayam address.

Oh... this is here!

What is it?

That... Nambiar's sister.

Nambiar's sister?
Fit in such a small box?

Is this guy for real?

-Blabbering in English again?
-What?

What do you mean?

The box still has space. Careful.

Let me measure... how tall are you?

-Hello.
-I don't want a new mobile plan. Hang up!

-He hung up.
-Let me call him.

I don't want a new mobile plan!

Hello... I've kidnapped your wife.

And she's bawling away.

Now, listen carefully.

Hello.

Sir, I had collected a coffin
from you yesterday.

I found a box in it.

In the name of Latha Nambiar.

Did her brother come back to collect it?

-No...
-What should I do with it?

Do what you think best, sir.

But, where's my wife? Please tell me.

Wife?

Throw it away.

It's an unidentified parcel.
Could be a bomb... you'd know.

Is my wife alright? Is she eating?

She has a blood pressure issue.
If she doesn't eat, she'll faint.

-What a weirdo!
-What happened?

-He keeps talking about his wife.
-Ignore him.

There's no more place in the van.

What do we do with this?

Let's open it.

If there's anything of value,
we'll split it.

What? No.

This doesn't belong to us.
We should return it to its addressee.

Shall we go to the post office?

Long weekend.
It won't open for another three days.

Anyway, this address isn't far from Kochi.
On our way maybe...

What? Not again!

Enough of this South India tour.

Let's get about the job
at hand and leave.

Shaukat, she's right.

It has sentimental value.

She's right...
but that doesn't mean I like it.

I've to claim a fortune
from your mother for fuel.

I'm keeping an account.

He's got a good heart.

Thanks for handling

You're dealing with
this very bravely.

I should be practical like you, right?

If you were close to your grandmother,
the tears make sense.

My dad and I weren't... so...

I'm going to get something
to drink. Need anything?

Just keep an eye.

Cash.

Cash.

Cash.

Gas...

Stop! Thief!

If you don't get your hands dirty...

how can you truly taste life?

Hello.

Nambiar?

Nambiar.

Is anyone home?

Nambiar.

Yes... Correct.

Nambiar.

Can we speak to someone?

-Nambiar.
-Allow me.

Sir, greetings.

Who came first?
The chicken or the egg?

Nambiar.

-He doesn't understand Hindi.
-Genius!

You're from Kerala.

Don't you know Malayalam?

We aren't originally from here.

You're useless.

You're from Bangalore.
Do you know Kannadiga?

Kannadigas are people of Karnataka.

The language is Kannada.
I know that.

This argument is pointless.

I know a little Pashto.
Should I give it a shot?

-Sir...
-Mom speaks Malayalam!

Hello.

(Speaks in Malayalam)

He's gone.

With the phone...

Don't be silly.

You came to deliver the box,
now you've lost your phone.

Hello.

Okay.

What?

But...

Okay, fine.

Buddy, what just happened?

Tahira said that he needed it...
to buy new shoes for his child.

-And you gave it?
-Yes.

Did you get any information?

Yes. There's a place ahead, Kumarakom.

They've gone for a ceremony.

-A party?
-Yes.

Free food? Bring it on.

Let's go.

"He has a good heart."

Funny!

What grace!

It's a wedding ceremony.

What's this?

My wedding look.

-I'm not going in like this.
-It's not your wedding.

Why would you go
dressed like this?

Thanks.

Shaukat.

Shaukat.

So beautiful!

Where are the bride and groom?

Wonderful.

How's it my fault?

Everything was ready for the wedding

until your dad decided there won't be one.

Please try and understand, Rajat...

The bride and groom...

I think I've been damn understanding.
This is just impossible.

Forget it. It's my fault, okay?

My aunt died and screwed things up, right?

Did I say that?

Just... just give me a break.

-My wedding just got canceled.
-Mine, too.

And rescheduled... not canceled.

Look, I don't want to fight.

Do me a favor.

Tell your friends there's
going to be a prayer meet instead.

They need to cut the noise
and show some respect.

Lakshmi, please understand.

They've come from Europe
to attend a wedding in Kerala.

To party in 'Incredible India'.

And I hate to say this,

but your aunt's death
makes no difference to them.

And the bar's been open...
half of them are sloshed.

How do I control them?

I understand, Rajat.

And honestly, it doesn't really
matter to me either.

But we have to manage
the situation for now, don't we?

-Please do something.
-Alright. I'm sorry.

I'll talk to them.

Excuse me?

What is it?

Is Latha Nambiar a relative of yours?

Sir, we met at the Bangalore airport...

-Hey.
-Hi.

We've come to deliver your
fiance's aunt's personal effects.

Oh, really?

Thank God. My father-in-law was
quite hyper about it.

I'm sure.

Oh, that's a relief.

If you're up for a drink,
the bar's open.

-Okay.
-Okay.

Go ahead...I'll join you.
Be there in a minute.

Maestro, listen...

Do you have to play all day?

All day long.

I remember my first time
in India.

What a wonderful summer!

It was beautiful back then.

Not quite so anymore.

More?

You've taken away everything.

What more do you want?

-Sorry?
-What's the point of apologizing now?

You divided the country.

Took all our jewels.

-You're still living off them.
-What?

You duffers invented cricket,
but we still beat you at it.

-Did he say duffer?
-Did he say cricket?

Yeah...cricket.
Let's play a game right now.

I have my bat.

We can play there.

Hit that wall for two runs.

That pipe for four.
Into the lake... and you're out.

I'll whack the ball so hard
that you'll forget how to bowl.

Get up. You scared?

I respect the occasion,
or you'd be buried right here.

-What?
-Sir, please...

No, buddy.

I feel sick thinking about it.

Do you get it?

Don't fight. They're guests.

Take them away from here.

Oh God!

What in the name of God?

Oh God!

What is she doing?

Oh, she's drinking alcohol.

Good Lord!

Forgiveness, O Lord!

Shaukat.

-Buddy, we should get out of here.
-What?

This place is the secret lair
of the devil.

What's the matter, Shaukat?

Avinash, you are too naive.

Look what's happening there. Look.

What the...?

Exactly. What the...!

Let them be.

Maestro!

Seriously?

You're drinking? Again?

Yeah.

Hi. I'm Avinash.

And we're going to meet
your mother.

Will you remember that?

Of course.

You want a drink?

I'm fine.

You don't drink?

Not too much.

Not before sunset.

Avinash...

It's cool to break
the rules sometimes.

Come, have a shot with me?

Maybe you've forgotten that
we're not here to party.

Our situation is a bit
more grave.

You said that you weren't
close to your dad.

Why so serious suddenly?

True. What's your excuse?

Grandma would've approved of me drinking.

-Really?
-Yes.

She hated tears and all that shebang.

Shall we? Come on, Avinash.

Stop being a party-pooper.
There's no office tomorrow!

Come on, buddy. It's my wedding day.

Yeah, but we don't know you.

Was my wedding day...

It's okay.

-Easy.
-Bro.

Come on. Let's have some shots.

Shots for all of us. Bring it on.

You guys drink.

No... no. You have to. For me.

Come on... cheers... to weddings.

To weddings!

One more... one more.

Just two's fine.

To funerals.

To funerals.

God, I needed this.

It's doom's day!

The world has turned topsy-turvy.

That's my friend.

He'd set out for his father's funeral.
Wine has now seduced him.

God save us.

Is there no other way to be happy?
So much intoxication!

They are all slaves to revelry.

I'm tired of playing
the shehnai at weddings.

Sir, then come with me.

I won't let you suffer any longer.

Come.

-Now?
-Let's go.

Look away.

What's up?

I have a headache.

Shaukat's sermon got
something to do with it?

No.

He's another extreme.

But, life isn't all fun and games...

We must be true to our responsibilities.

Are you calling me irresponsible?

Maybe.

-What the hell?
-How can you argue?

You didn't even remember
your grandmother's death.

You think I'm not affected by it?

No. Because you were
just drinking... again.

You've moved on swiftly.

Can you please just stop judging me?

Don't teach me how to live, oldie.

This pointless rebellion.

What's your problem?

Why such angst?

No love from the family?

Let me guess...
your dad left you.

Or... some stupid boyfriend...

My dad had cancer...
when I was eight.

He died soon after.

But mom loves me like crazy.

I am who I am because of my choices.

How's your trip, Shaukat?

Mr. Rehmat's asking if you
feel like returning his money.

Yes, I have to return it.

Immediately, in fact.

When exactly?

You've missed the deadline.

And you left the city...
for a picnic.

The person who was to give me
the money went offline.

Now when he comes online...
I don't have money here.

Bro, you're picnicking
without any dough?

No picnic! We're out for a funeral.
The van's the pallbearer.

How I wish for such a funeral.

Here's what we'll do...
we'll take your van.

Bro!

Hey, stop! Avinash, stop him.

Get out of the way.

Stop!

Maestro... greetings!

Oh God!

The Almighty has spared you.

To be honest...

the way you tumbled...

I thought we'd never
hear you play again.

Thank the Lord for this bonus life.

Congratulations.

Dear Lord!

What rubbish you speak!

(Speaks in Malayalam)

Hello. Yes, Tahira.

Okay.

Thank God.

Take care.

She says that he's saying...

that the van was spotted
20-30 miles from here.

We'll know by morning.

What do we do now?

There's a hotel nearby.

I'll find out the details.
You get Shaukat.

Careful, nurse.

Do you know what it means to be a nurse?

You've downloaded
a butcher’s app instead.

Delete it.

She can't understand what you're saying.

At least she gets the emotion.

Aziz Hussain?

Shaukat, let's go...
we've to wait till morning.

We're staying the night in a hotel nearby.

Hotel? No way.

I'm still sore.

I need to stay the night here.

Okay.

Nurse... please!

I can't sleep.

Can I chill here for a while?

You've got full network?

Yes, why?

The uploads are too slow.

What are you uploading?

Just some pictures I took on the drive.

Can I see?

Sure.

Nice.

But you could frame them better.

How?

Like here, what's your subject?

That girl.

But you have unnecessary
elements in your frame.

If you had zoomed in
just a little bit...

focus is on the girl.

That's an easy fix.

-On Instagram?
-Yes.

Right.

What's your issue with Instagram now?

Such apps are killing photography.

Click, swipe in a filter
and everyone's like...

"Wow!"

So, that's a good thing, isn't it?

Everyone can become photographers.

Everyone thinks
they can become photographers.

This isn't photography.

This is just... lazy.

In that case, Snapchat
will give you a heart attack.

That's even crazier!

You're very old school.

I'd learnt that photography
is all about capturing a moment.

Not about creating a moment
out of anything.

Editing it later, putting a filter...

Sure, the picture looks good.

But, the science behind
taking the photograph,

the joy... that's lost.

A string of four-five sentences?

Who knew you could talk so much?

But, you said that
you learnt all of this.

I was interning with
a senior photographer for a while.

-You wanted to be a photographer?
-Yeah.

-Didn't work out.
-Why not?

Long story.

I have time.

What a couplet, sir.

Beautiful.

Beautiful.

Another one, please.

Absolutely.

If I may...

Real beauty seeks no compliments.

Real beauty seeks no approval.

One appreciative glance is aplenty.

Fantastic.

What a couplet!

But then why didn't you fight with him?

You could've put your foot down...

Things were different back then.

Being a rebel was not cool in my circles.

And to pursue real photography...
it's not cheap.

A middle class man's bank balance.

And a middle class boy's ethics.

Together, they don't...

Wait.

-Don't move.
-What is it?

Just... stay.

Is it a lizard?

Listen, I hate lizards.

Give me your phone.

Hold still.

The light is great.

Okay, Now. Take a drag.

Wow!

You're damn good.

That's capturing a moment.

Now, don't mess with it on Instagram.

I can't upload it on Instagram anyway.

Mom will know that I smoke.

Ah.

And please, don't mention it
or offer me a cigarette in front of her.

Don't worry. Your secret's safe with me.

And yours, with me.

What secret?

That you sometimes smile.

And such a rare occasion
calls for a selfie.

Uh... I need to get a toothbrush.

What?

I forgot to pack a toothbrush.

There's a 24-hour chemist here.

Oh, nice. I need some stuff, too.

Come.

Please go on.

Go on.

If I may...

These sensual eyes make
a sweet promise...

Is this a couplet?

No, a song.

From a film.

-A very good song.
-I don't watch films.

Please recite a couplet, if you can.

Here goes...

listen carefully.

Some emotions are so consuming.

Some emotions are so pristine.

That they can't be snared
in the web of words.

What sort of couplet is this?

All that the heart wants to say
may not form a couplet.

Some words just flow from the depths.

What's this?

-Sorry?
-What is this?

Pregnancy test.

Yes, I can see that. But... why?

To test for pregnancy?

I do know, but... is this for you?

I'm an adult. It's cool...

I'm not so sure it's "cool".

What are you... 18?

You know at what age the average girl
loses her virginity these days?

-Just take a wild guess.
-No, thanks.

There are no lines
left to be crossed anymore.

This is normal. And it's healthy
to be open about it.

And who gave you this advice?

Believe it or not, my grandma.

She was way cooler than you'll ever be.

Or just crazy like you.

-What's your problem?
-Nothing.

The way you live
will only attract problems.

Oh, wow. You're saying this?

-After all the choices you've made.
-What do you mean?

I don't want to live my life
repressed, like you.

Repressed?
Just 'cause I'm not loose like you?

Loose?

If you'd be more open-minded,
you'd be happy.

You wouldn't have so many problems.

You're a typical Indian man
in this respect.

If a girl tries to be friendly,
doesn't mean she's easy.

You're awkward because
of your raging hormones...

Excuse me.

The girl with me... have you seen her?

The girl who came with me,
did you see her anywhere?

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

I really shouldn't have...

and I wasn't going to...

I rarely share personal stuff with people.

And I did with you.

That's why I was awkward.

Not because of...

hormones.

I know.

I was angry and I snapped.

Sorry.

So we're cool?

Cool.

Avinash... Purohit?

Rajpurohit.
Is this about Shaukat?

Shit. What did he do now?

Who's Shaukat?
No, this is actually about you.

You graduated from BCET, right?

Yes... you, too?

But I don't remember...

No. I wanted to be a doctor
so I went to medical college.

Of course. Sorry.

You're actually my wife's batch mate.

In fact, her friend.

At least, I hope so.

You're in all her college pictures.

Your wife?

Rumana Salim.

-Rumi!
-Exactly!

You'll hung out together, right?

-Yeah.
-I've met the rest of them.

You don't come to the reunions...

He has a problem with crowds.

He can't handle
more than three-four people.

How's Rumi?

-Come home and ask her yourself.
-Home?

-No... our friend's here...
-And he's absolutely fine.

Anyway, he won't get discharged
till tomorrow morning, right?

But, we're expecting
a call from the police.

Boon of a mobile!
You can be reached anywhere.

Let's go.

Rumana makes me
mind-blowing breakfast.

And breakfast before sunrise
is the best...

I'm ready.

I'm a little hungry, too.
The canteen here's a bit dodgy.

Yes, best avoided.

Cool. Done then, let's go.

Come guys.

Rumana?

In the kitchen.

Please come out for a minute.

I've got a surprise for you.

Raghu, if you've got
some sick puppy again...

Avi...

Rumi.

-Hi.
-Hi.

Hi, I'm Tanya.

Hi... Rumana.

You guys... I mean...
what are you doing here?

We can catch up over breakfast too.

I'm starving.

-I'm... getting it.
-Yes, come.

By the way...
tell me something.

You guys are... friends since college.

Yeah.

Actually, we weren't at first.

Avi seemed to be the serious,
creative type.

He still gives that vibe.

A friend in our group said that
Avi is actually very cool.

So... we decided to give the poor soul
a chance to join us.

He turned out to be a lot of fun.

You'll weren't too many, right?

No... because he has a problem
with crowds.

Nice...

Okay, guys.

I'm going to take a quick nap.

I've to go back to the hospital
in an hour.

We should leave, too...

At least let the food settle.

And if you don't try Rumana's coffee,

then you’ll regret it forever.

♪ Miss, don't you blush ♪

Has she dozed off?

She talks so much.

Must have tired herself out.

Let's sit out.

It's a beautiful place.

We love it here.

Coffee okay?

It's great actually.

Raghu was right.

Rumi...

On graduation day...

the way I left...

We don't have to talk about it, Avi.

No... I want to.

I know I did you wrong.

It was such a long time ago.

Honestly, the joy of seeing you here
overshadows all sadness.

I'm so sorry.

Apology accepted.

Thank you.

And... how's life? Work?

Your dad?

Dad's... no more.

I'm so sorry.

When... did it happen?

A few days ago.

In fact, we're going to Kochi
to collect his body.

Are you okay?

Dad and I hadn't spoken
for many years.

So, how does it matter
if he's around or not?

Let go of this hate now.

It's not hate.

At least, not anymore.

That maybe a bit because of her.

She seems like a lovely girl.

Isn't she a bit young for you?

I mean... whatever makes
the two of you happy...

Rumi, she's not my girlfriend.

Dad's body went to her mom by mistake.

And we were taking her grandmother's body.

And all this happened...

Huh?

It's quite messed up. Let's not go there.

Fine... maybe not a girlfriend.
But a companion?

Stop it, Rumi.

Seriously, how did she help?

It's strange.

I'm interacting with
a young person after very long.

It's very tough.

And sometimes, when I talk to her,
I react exactly like dad.

Angry, unreasonable, old-fashioned.

It's a never-ending cycle.

It's often said...

"By the time a son realizes
that his father was right...

he has a son who tells him
that he's wrong."

Must be from the police station.

Do you speak Malayalam?

A little.

Hello.

I will keep your daughter very happy.

She'll live the good life.

I'll take her shopping.

Take her to the movies.

I'll even give you dowry.

Sure?

Greetings.

Greetings.

Sir...

May I have a word with you?

With me?

The doctor has said
to take these medicines.

Okay.

Shaukat, allow me to introduce you...

This is my wife... Tasneem Bano.

Wife?

Yes, my third wife.

Praise the Lord!

Yes... medicine?

You were saying something.

Where are you going?

Hello?

You're looking fresh.

Didn't know you were a morning person.

Shut up.

See you...

Has she dozed off again?

-Take care of yourself.
-You, too.

-So?
-So...

You're bad with goodbyes, right?

Let me help you?

-Bye, Avi.
-Bye, Rumi.

Take care of yourself.

You, too.

Good morning.

-A good morning indeed.
-Why?

Well... I was nervous to come out here.

Why?

I thought there was
a one percent chance I'd come out

and not find you.

That can happen only after I die.

You're a doctor's wife.

I won't let you die so easily.

Is he okay?

Yes.

Did they find the car?

So, now?

I think he's on a journey
of self discovery.

Wow.

He has a perfect name for you.

-Rumi.
-Come on...

Give it.

-Let's go.
-Where ?

We need to make a pit stop.

Just a second. Shaukat, Let it be.

Tahira's waiting for us.

Half an hour more
won't kill anyone.

I mean, no one else will die.

We were to go to Kochi.

You said,"Let's go to Ooty, instead."
I detoured.

Madam said, "Go to Kottayam."

I detoured, again.

Now, if I say we have to make
one more stop,

we've just got to!

Hello, Mr. Rehmat.

It's me... Shaukat.

I didn't have the money,
so your boys took my van.

The money's been arranged.

Where do I drop it?

And where will I find these boys?

Message me the address.

Yes, I'm coming.

Mr. Rehmat's dogs!

This world is an unjust place.

You push around a helpless one like me.

Are you happy vandalizing my van?

Give me my bat.

Wag your tails before him.

Lick his shoes.

He'll reward you with scraps.

He's spewing lines from an action flick!

I'll take you to court!

You'll pay for this!

Start the car.

Why? Don't you wanna fight?

Not today.

Then why did you get us here,
you fool?

Misguided anger.
I was sore about my heartbreak.

What happened with
the shehnai player's daughter?

Who?

What did I miss?

I'll tell you on the drive.
Start the car. Let's get out.

Shit.

Shaukat, apologize.

-Sorry?
-Listen to me.

Apologize. Take one slap max...

and we get out of here.

Do they look like
a women's activist group?

They won't stop at one slap.

What other choice do we have?

You had to go act all macho!

Back up the car.

Brothers, fighting has never
achieved anything.

Start backing up...

For example,
take the situation in Kashmir...

Shaukat, now tell me...

what are you involved in?

A long time ago my father
borrowed a large sum

from the wrong kind of people.

-I'm paying that price.
-What?

Father?

But, you said that you'd never
met your father.

He was a drunk.

He used to beat my mother and me.

If I'd resist, he'd shut me up
saying that it was his right.

People abuse their relationships...
they don't care to nurture them.

My mother thought it her duty
to take the beating.

One day, I gave it back to my father.

Instead of thanking me,
mother threw me out of the house.

She was used to the insults.

She couldn't live without them.

I never met the father hidden
behind that drunk guy.

So, I tell people I've never met him.

My mother...

Sorry, Shaukat.

What a vile guy.

He's troubling me even after his death.

The father department
is tragic for all of us, isn't it?

And what's the angle with
the shehnai man's daughter?

Couldn't form an angle.

Could have... if she were his daughter.

-Turned out to be his wife.
-Wif--

-The third one.
-Wife?

The third.

If he wasn't so old,
I'd chop him and donate his organs.

-Hi, mom.
-Tanya!

-Hi.
-Hi.

-We finally meet.
-We finally meet, yes.

My friend, Shaukat.

-Hello!
-Absolute pleasure to see you, Shaukat.

Here's a lovely woman!

So sorry... I've troubled you a lot.

No. You haven't troubled us.

She has.

I'll tell you at length.

Sure.

Where's mom?

Ma's on Nano.

-Excuse me?
-Nano, the car.

She didn't fit inside.

Need some help?

That's okay.

The right one's yours.

So far, I was with
the wrong one.

You must be in a hurry to return...

but, I've organized
a prayer meeting for mom.

It's an informal affair.

-If you...
-We'll stay.

Nice.

If you don't mind, could you say
a prayer for my dad, too?

Sure.

I don't know how this works.

Avinash!

Some of your dad's things.

Thank you.

Hello.

There's both, good and bad news.

Which one first?

Bad news.

I'm not pregnant.

And... the good news?

That I'm not pregnant.

The best news is that
you've smartened up.

Some of my goodness
has rubbed off on you.

Please! Not at all.

Of your countless sermons,

I've only learned that
there's a difference...

between rebellion and recklessness.

That's very deep.

Very Sufi-type!

I think you mean Rumi-type.

Good evening, everyone.

Thank you for coming.

It means a lot to me.

The shortest and most beautiful word
in this world is... mom.

Some are engineers... doctors,
others poets... painters.

But, for her child, a mother
has to be all of these.

Then one day, the child grows up.

And becomes clever and worldly wise.

Leaves the nest and takes flight.

This too, the mother accepts.

Then she spends
the rest of her life worrying.

My mother was just like that.

Like every mother in the world...

just... perfect.

Hello, Brij. How are you?

Hope you're in the best of health.

Heard that your son Rahul,
is running the company now.

Good to hear.

How's Avinash?

I haven't spoken to him in days.

To be honest... we don't talk.

He's upset with me.

He thinks that I've ruined his life.

He wanted to pursue photography
and I forbade him.

I too, wanted to learn the piano
and pursue a career in music.

But, I had seen so many hardships...
that I gave up.

I have been thinking,
I'll come and meet him...

to tell him that he could work
a few years and retire early.

Then he could pursue photography.

But, I'm unable to.

I'm scared of his hatred.

Till I muster up the courage,
please take care of him.

He's all I have.

And I hope that when the time comes,

my daughter says such words for me, too.

In the same accident,

a friend also lost his father.

We'll say a prayer for both...

The second most complicated
and beautiful word is... dad.

I spent years trying to figure him out.

And he spent years judging me.

But, neither of us understood each other.

We had a strange relationship.

We never expressed our love.

But time is the greatest teacher.

And now, when I do understand...

we've run out of time.

Fact is...

I don't know if my father was a good man.

But I know now that he wasn't bad.

And these days,
even "not bad" is pretty great.

For you.

What's this?

It's called a camera.

It's used to click photos.

Click good ones and email them to me.

I'll teach you how to color correct them.

Oh?

-Thank you.
-Where's Shaukat?

Someone called me?

-Yes.
-Did you ask for me?

-This is for you.
-Why? What's this?

You'll need music
for your return journey.

And with these, this grumpy guy
won't get disturbed.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

Girl, you're quite alright!

Thanks, buddy.

If you ever need anything,
give me a shout.

I'm very resourceful.

I'll get your work done in a jiffy.

Why are you traveling at night?

Leave in the morning.

We're already quite late...

Please. We'll have dinner together.

It'll be nice.

I make excellent lamb.

On!

Shaukat!

That's terrible!

You should... come with me.

Come...

Avinash... Tasneem.

Hello.

The Maestro's missus...
has come to file a complaint.

A complaint?

The old man isn't as noble as he appears.

She says that he hits her.

So?

So... she's coming with us.

Wait...

-What?
-She's eloping with me.

Shaukat, we won't do anything illegal.

We roamed all of South India
with a dead body.

And it's illegal to help
a girl in trouble?

Shaukat...

The most celebrated love stories
have met with resistance.

But everyone doesn't need to die
in the name of love.

A soulless body is better
than an empty heart.

I don't know what that means.

That means... start the car.

Stop!

Don't go, sweetheart.

Stop!

Avinash, stop.

Stop... for a minute.

Aren't you happy?

You don't understand my situation.

You don't understand my passion.

-Look...
-I'm looking...

I'm scared.

This is a sin.

To bear torture is a greater sin
than to commit it.

Shaukat...

This world is ruthless.
What will people say?

People are ruthless.
The world bears the brunt!

Don't repeat my mom's mistakes.

What? I'll explain later.

Right now, say the words
and free yourself.

-Please listen to me.
-Tell me.

I want a divorce.

Goodnight.

I couldn't care less about
your goddamn reasons, Avinash.

I clearly said that I wanted
all the reports on Monday morning.

-With a cover sheet.
-Yes!

Because that's protocol.

So where the hell are they?

I've given you a lot of chances
because of dad.

But, this is just impossible.

Decide if you want
to keep this job.

I don't...

-I'm sorry?
-I don't want this job.

I quit.

Don't walk away!

Come back here... Avinash!

Also you're a terrible boss, Rahul.

You should take a page
from your father's book.

Hey! Don't you dare tell me
how to run my own company.

And the network speed
that you keep complaining about...

is because you surf porn sites
during office hours.

Dude, you're the head of an IT company.

You should know
those sites are full of malware.

How dare you?
You know what... you're fired.

Yeah... you understand that?
You're fired!

Just a second, Rahul. Hold that.

It's a lovely frame.

Check it on my Instagram feed.

Are you out of your mind?

Listen, you son of a...

you can beg, fall at my feet,
you're not getting this job back.

Yeah...

I'll make sure this is the end
of your IT career!

What? Back to your seats!

Bro.

How?

Wow... how did you...?

It's very easy.

You should try it.

What are you looking at?

Get back to work.
