Original subtitles

What happened?

-It was a cardiac arrest. -Oh my God!

Wake Jayram and Mohini up. Ask them to get ready.

And Sriram? Please find out where he is.

Daddy's calling.

Seven missed calls!

I'm so screwed!

Hello, Dad.

Sorry, my phone was on silent mode. I didn't hear.

I have some bad news.

What?

That's why we've been trying to call you.

We are all going to her house now.

I suggest you meet us there.

Immediately!

You know my friend Rajat? The fat one?

He was in an accident on Ring Road and broke his hip.

I need to rush to the hospital.

Please don't say you won't be coming.

Dad...

I swear on you, I'll come...

for the funeral.

Black sheep!

You're the black sheep of the family!

Do I look "black" to you?

I'll come for the memorial service. I Guarantee.

If you swear on me...

I'll have my memorial service, soon.

And I guarantee you'll miss that as well!

Dad, why overreact?

There are other people besides you in this world.

Don't you need to fulfill your duty towards them?

What can I do for the country?

The grandson of a Gandhian freedom fighter says this!

Your grandfather was my inspiration.

Jayram considers me his idol.

For Chinnu, Jayram is a hero!

Is there anyone for whom you are a hero?

I sent you to America to study and not to become some alien!

You don't look a part of this family anymore.

No, son. This time I won't support you.

Dad is right.

You've become extremely self-centered.

Your aunt called from Chennai eight times.

All she wanted was to know whether you liked her sweater.

You didn't use the sweater...

but the least you could do is say "Thank you."

Where is that sweater?

Where is the sweater?

Muttu considers me a hero!

To hope for anything from this boy is like...

There's only one way we can deal with Sriram.

Every small deed done for the country matters.

Very fair boy, right?

There was a mix-up at the hospital.

Just show my mom this sitar and you'll win her over.

She has two!

Your smile...

Can I be honest?

I have no interest in getting married.

I was going to reject you... but--

Do it!

Our family is exactly like yours...

I'm in love with someone else.

But I can't say no to this proposal. So, please--

They're calling you outside.

Come on!

Dear.

Such a small world, right son?

In the 1946 freedom struggle, your grandfather...

and Mr. Natarajan's father were both in Hyderabad Jail.

-Congratulations! -That's great news!

They make such a beautiful pair.

If I would have refused

Dad would've thrown me out of the company.

And anyways, why should I care about Vasudha's problem?

Right, Sandy?

Plus, she's beautiful, Tamilian, from a good family.

Mom and Dad already love her.

A catch like her will make everything fall in place.

Right?

All they have is payasam.

Lentil fritters, semolina fritters and curry.

Everything's vegetarian?

Why are you doing this?

Forget all that.

Everything's vegetarian!

Don't tell the family but I'm a strict chicketarian.

Sriram, I'm very serious about him.

Then why tell me? Tell your parents.

They will never accept Kamal.

Kamal Hassan? The actor?

Kamal doesn't have his own place nor a stable job.

He's an environmentalist. Like--

You mean a social servant?

Vasudha, you're really lucky!

I promise you, you've been saved!

These people are really dangerous.

They're crazy.

I used to date one such girl.

It was quite serious but--

Don't tell me you thought

you'll find a guy who hasn't had a girlfriend.

How many girlfriends did you have?

Many.

But this one was special.

Less of Environment. She was more of a mentalist!

The government has said you can't defecate here...

because there are no toilets here.

So, I said, "Who needs a toilet?"

Since we're fasting, what will we possibly excrete?

Whatever it is, get rid of Corruption!

We're done with Corruption!

Get rid of Corruption! We're done with Corruption!

Get rid of Corruption! We're done with Corruption!

Get rid of Corruption! We're done with Corruption!

You must be hungry.

Eat this quietly. No one will know.

If a 70-year-old man can fast, then why can't I?

Once this bill is passed

all these corrupt idiots will be taken to task!

I should have been a politician.

The kind of money they earn!

Did you vote? No, right?

If you did, you could've brought about a change.

Who do I vote for?

They're all corrupt!

Blame someone else.

Now tell me, what's different

between you and a corrupt politician?

Kids from all over the country come here.

What treatment?

They are all AIDS patients.

No... Nothing...

And anyways, AIDS isn't transmitted by touch.

You know? You remind me of Shabana Azmi.

Since I was young I have always dreamt of having such a car.

And finally, Dad has agreed.

Buying a car with your Dad's money is no big deal.

Buy one on your own. That's an achievement.

I can't believe you're fighting with me because

I don't want to go to some "Tomatina" Festival.

Yes. Because you've forgotten to enjoy life.

These festivals only look good in movies.

You know, in our country--

Country! Dia, you're not the Prime Minister.

You never miss an opportunity to bark your slogans.

I know one as well, "Live and let live!"

If I start talking on your lifestyle...

you'll be in tears.

I know.

Which is why I wonder if I've made a mistake.

You're just saying all this to scare me off.

And anyway, she wasn't wrong.

Maybe not, but she was real.

Son, save some for next time!

The Kashi Yatra ceremony.

On the day of the wedding, the groom suddenly pretends...

Then the bride's relatives beg...

and ask the groom, "Please marry our daughter."

Can we meet tomorrow?

Alone?

You are such a brat!

And why are we meeting?

Listen, please don't tell me you're going to start with the Kamal story again.

I don't want it.

I know him.

He was the waiter at my house the other day.

-No. -It's him.

I don't remember.

Let's talk about something else.

Let's talk about Dia.

You two were so different. How did you meet?

We met like a guy falling from the 18th floor meets the concrete.

I'd just returned from America after studying architecture...

Do you come in?

Oh man! We're stuck here for the last 20 minutes!

We'll miss all the wedding festivities.

Relax. Stop worrying. Just forget the wedding.

It's my brother's wedding! Stop this nonsense!

Why are you smothering me?

Dia. Her name's Dia. She's a family friend.

She's a little crazy.

She's so weird, which is why she's still single.

Her parents are so worried.

She's older than you.

But she's hot!

What are you doing here?

Playing football!

Look at this, man!

Listen, can I borrow your jacket?

I'll clear the traffic in five minutes.

Come out!

I'll return both.

Take off your clothes.

How many months does it look like? Twelve?

I'll fix it before we get there.

What an amazing girl!

You're the husband. I'm the wife.

I'll clear this jam in five minutes.

-Has the minister left? -Not yet.

Oh no, no! Take your time.

Madam!

Why did you step out?

My water bag burst. How much longer do we have to wait?

Do something!

Do something!

Say "All is well."

It kicked! That was a strong kick!

Looks like it's about to happen right here!

Do something!

Look. We need to go to the hostel right now!

Please just wait for five minutes. Hold! Just hold!

Record this injustice on a mobile phone!

Oh man! No!

-Note his name down! Note it! -No. No.

Let them go, Sir, we'll be in trouble.

Do one thing ma'am, you go ahead, please.

But our car is right at the back.

-Bring it ahead. -What?

Hey! Move the barricade!

-Go help him! -Yeah, correct.

Hey! What are you doing there? Come on!

-Come on, hurry! -Open it up.

-Are you crazy? -Hurry!

The minister's convoy will be here any minute!

Is he pregnant as well?

Where is your car?

I can't see it, sir.

God will thank you.

If I have a boy, I will name him after you...

Hey! Even if it's a girl I'll name her Lahiri!

Hey! What are you doing? Put up the barricade!

I'll lose my job, man!

Sir, come in.

-The minister is on his way. -What?

Sir just hold for two minutes.

-What's her name? -What?

No, nothing.

Oh, honey!

The baby's coming.

That's why we're going to the hospital!

It's coming right now!

What?

Hey! Ma'am!

Hey! What's happening? Stop the traffic!

Dia, that was incredible, man!

It's not about the pranks or fun.

So many people were stuck.

They should consider the public as well, right?

What?

Sounds like Sridevi.

What's happening, Dia?

Nothing much. I just joined the Rotary Club.

That's the reason I'm late.

Oh, where's my daughter? Where's Dia?

There she is...

The Englishmen call it booty We Punjabi's call it tooh

The Englishmen call it booty We Punjabi's call it tooh

Shake that tooh

These twerking toohs Light up every celebration

These fair, naughty and round toohs

The Punjabi toohs, the drunk toohs, Come on everybody move that tooh

Come on bring out the drums

These twerking toohs take my breath away

These twerking toohs are wreaking havoc

The boys are crazy for my twerking tooh

Raids are being conducted for that tooh

I've had enough of these drunk toohs

I love this tooh decked up in a pink skirt

I'm wearing a skirt that's short I'm guzzling tequila shots

Even the month of January feels hot

Alright, I'm drunk It's time we do a sexy step

These twerking toohs take my breath away

These twerking toohs are wreaking havoc

The boys are crazy for my twerking tooh

The talent of a modern woman is limitless But so is her attitude

They know how to make an entrance

In your heart as well as your lives

I've had enough of your whining

Move out of way and let me dance

Come on bring out the drums

These twerking toohs take my breath away

These twerking toohs are wreaking havoc

The boys are crazy for my twerking tooh

I said, I'm sorry, man. Come on.

You know that Joshna is my friend? Right?

Your girlfriend?

But how will she even know?

You think I won't tell her?

She'll throw me out!

Come on. You're so much older than me.

Act mature, man!

-Mom. -Don't cry, my child...

-Come on move! -Yeah! Yeah! I'm leaving.

What were you thinking?

And by the way...

I still think she was right.

Listen, she was leading me on, ever since we met.

What happened next?

You know they say that lightning doesn't strike the same place twice.

They're wrong.

Six months later.

India and Bangladesh were playing a cricket match.

And Sachin Tendulkar was about to score his 100th century...

and my dad took me to some stupid mall opening.

This has been my ambition for the last two years.

I'm so very happy!

If the Municipal Commissioner is pleased today...

Come on, Sriram.

One day, even you can build a mall like this.

Please, let me in.

I have some work in there.

If I could enter...

Please come. Put the garland.

Oh, honey!

I completely forgot you stay in Bangalore.

I didn't realize she'll make such a scene.

We were all immature.

I hope you understand you were wrong as well.

But I'm being a bigger person here and I'm apologizing.

Greetings everyone!

Mr. Venkat and his team have worked very hard.

Bangalore city's development has always been a challenge for me.

What's going on?

The land in Ramnagar allotted

for a sports ground by the government

has been seized by your son-in-law

to open a giant shopping mall!

What's she saying?

Now the kids need a place to play, right?

After all, Bangalore city's development...

has always been a challenge for you.

Please, forgive me.

Why are you getting upset? What do you have to say?

Will you make grounds for the kids

or will they have to play in malls?

What's your opinion on corrupt ministers in this country?

Should they be put behind bars?

What's the future of this country?

Please respond, sir!

Now let's see what he does. This mall will be--

But, why?

Because I'm certain...

Sachin Tendulkar will score his 100th century today.

Oh, honey!

When will I see you next?

Will you behave yourself?

Lunch, tomorrow?

We came to this very restaurant.

There!

So, you came to Bangalore for an NGO job?

I can't work in a bank-like place.

I've heard of weekend charity. I have friends who do it.

But full-time agony on this salary?

It's better than being a loafer.

You know my dad hates you.

You and your Social Sisterhood

have turned his shopping mall into a sports stadium!

I don't wish to hurt anyone.

I just aim to correct what's wrong.

What will you eat?

Listen, you aren't a vegetarian, I hope.

Why? Because I'm the NGO-type?

I'm a vegetarian.

You know, right?

Chickens don't provide oxygen, shade...

Nor do they protect the ozone layer in anyway.

So, you should save the trees and eat chicken!

You know you lack something up there, right?

Crab. Hey, one sec.

They are alive!

Yeah, so?

How can you kill someone?

It's a crab. What's one supposed to do with a crab?

Should I adopt them?

It's good we didn't go to the zoo.

Or who knows what I would have ended up adopting!

You get away with it because you're pretty!

If it was someone else...

All talk and no action.

You're not as bad as you portray yourself to be.

I'm certain he's the black sheep!

You are the grandson of a Gandhian, and you befriend the wrong people!

Look!

Who keeps such pets?

She's not wrong. She's a charity worker.

Her landlady doesn't allow pets. That's why--

Holy Lord!

What should I do?

He brings home lizards and reptiles.

Is this a house or a zoo?

He may bring dead meat someday!

I've started hating this rascal. He's just too much.

This is so wrong.

-Rascal! He brings reptiles home. -Please shut up.

Why should I keep quiet? I've always kept mum in this house.

Have I ever spoken in this house?

Don't speak nonsense!

It's better I don't talk.

You have a lot of problems with your father, right?

No, no.

He has the problems.

I have always been second.

Jairam is always first.

There is no father in the world...

who doesn't have these minor issues with his son.

Not at all, man. I'm too cool, man.

Anyway, forget it. What's tomorrow's plan?

Tomorrow, let me take you out.

I guarantee you haven't seen this side of Bangalore.

I hope you haven't seen it.

Hey, cutie! Let's get a room.

Hey, hero! Are you coming?

I've never been here before.

If anyone spots me here, my dad will kill me.

Punishment without any pleasure.

Don't worry. I'll make sure your reputation isn't ruined.

And my entire team is here. Come!

I was about to be pimped.

Where's everyone else?

They've all ditched us. Somebody's Mom didn't allow.

One has his brother's birthday

and some have a mosquito allergy.

They're all fools!

Brilliant! The Social Sisterhood is a dedicated bunch!

Why does he have a camera?

We're making a documentary on the life of sex workers.

You're not making those films, right?

What now?

Whether they come or not, we're here.

We'll make this documentary happen.

Are you crazy?

What are you doing in the red-light area?

Archana's mother has told me everything.

We're making a documentary, Mom!

Stop being so dramatic.

It's our fault, Dia that we've been so lenient.

Why are you doing all this?

Which boy will marry you?

There are many boys who are willing to marry me.

If none of the other girls were going, why did you go?

Now listen to me...

promise me you will leave right now. Immediately!

I've said it... now!

-You heard me, right? Dia. -That's my mom.

Hello, ma'am. Is there a problem?

Who is this?

Please don't worry, we are here with your daughter.

That's right! These kids have complete police protection.

Please note my number, you can call me anytime.

Oh yes. Of Course. One minute.

I'm just looking for a pen.

Yes, tell me.

I find it laughing out loud At every silly thing you do

I find it sighing At every single step you take

I used to think my heart was sensible

I wonder what's wrong?

I wonder all night If my heart's crazy?

Why has this happened? Why has my heart gone crazy?

I wonder all night If my heart's crazy?

Why has this happened? Why has my heart gone crazy?

Her laughter lights up a dark room

She just takes my breath away

Listen to me my heart

Stop running after her blindly You never know where she might take you

I wonder all night If my heart's crazy?

Why has this happened? Why has my heart gone crazy?

I wonder all night If my heart's crazy?

Why has this happened? Why has my heart gone crazy?

I know you better than you know yourself

You're the sunshine in my life

My heart doesn't listen to me anymore

All it thinks about is our future together

I wonder

I wonder all night If my heart's crazy?

Why has this happened? Why has my heart gone crazy?

I wonder all night If my heart's crazy?

Why has this happened? Why has my heart gone crazy?

This used to be an ashram earlier.

Only a couple of builders know about this place.

So, the negotiation is very strong.

We can easily build an orphanage here.

Your Dad is refusing to buy you an Audi.

How is that my fault? Why are you mad at me and my poor orphanage?

There are bigger problems in life.

Brooding like this doesn't help.

There are bigger problems in life.

Brooding like this doesn't help.

They want to get me married!

There's so much I've to do in life.

And if I refuse, there's emotional drama.

"Great-grandma is on her death bed. She's serious!"

"Dad is so tensed!"

I can't believe all this isn't disturbing you.

It's not.

That's because I know we don't have a future together.

Take my advice.

Get married.

One minute.

Not that I'm dying to get married to you...

but what do you mean by, "We don't have a future together"?

We're so different.

You're a Punjabi from Delhi. I'm Tamilian from Bangalore.

You want to open an orphanage and I...

I hate kids.

So why have we been together

for the past year and a half?

Come on, man...

I'm just kidding. Why are you taking it so seriously?

I'm not kidding.

Pick me up at 06:00 p.m.

The flight is at 08:00 p.m.

Whenever I try to say something nice

My words ruin it

I told you...

you aren't as emotionless...

as you portray yourself to be.

I'm orphaned, Mother!

How will I live without you?

There's that guy.

Mr. Dhillon's son, Naresh.

The one wearing white.

Then there's that one...

in white.

Colonel Suri's grandson.

But the one I like...

is there, sitting in off-white.

Aunt Sharmila's son.

She's right.

They're all in white.

When they're wearing colors it'll be easier.

I don't want to get married.

If I had told my mother the same thing...

you wouldn't be here today.

Thank you. May she rest in peace.

Why don't you want to marry?

Listen...

who's he?

I've been a salesman for thirty years.

So, for me... selling is everything.

Why should I give you my daughter?

What qualities do you have that the other boys don't?

I have many qualities that others my age don't possess.

I'm lazy.

I'm aimless and completely useless.

Is he joking?

No sir. Of course not!

I'm so eccentric that living with me is hell!

But whatever you say, you daughter is way ahead.

I've known her just for a year.

You've handled her since childhood.

Every seven days she voices eight issues with ten demonstrations.

She could be arrested or worse.

Will she return home safely?

She ignores the suffering of her loved ones.

Yeah, but she did have police protection--

That was me!

I warned her a hundred times, "Don't go there!"

But you know how adamant she is.

Thankfully, I was present there. Things could have easily gone wrong.

Let's break it down.

Your daughter is a living, breathing Tension Machine.

Whoever she's with, his life is in danger.

And you've been a salesman for thirty years.

You're aware how difficult it is to unload defective goods.

So, you tell me...

why should I take your daughter?

I agree!

You're marvelous!

See?

I convinced them!

What? Have you seen your face?

-Listen! Stop -I will kill you.

Do I look like a defective piece?

I can't find a single issue with your love story.

She's exactly like Kamal.

But I haven't changed my decision.

So, now what?

You want me to give you away at your wedding?

Why are you telling me all this. Tell your parents.

I want to Sriram...

but I can't.

I guess you won't understand.

You should talk to them.

They want to get us married as soon as possible.

Come on, do it.

Oh Lord, I know not who I am

A Punjabi dish in a South Indian restaurant?

Oh Lord, I know not who I am

Nor am I a believer of religion

Nor do I believe in salvation

Is this guy a part of your dowry?

Oh Lord, I know not who I am

Oh Lord, I know not who I am

Who are you?

Stalker? Hit man? Tax man?

Wherever I go, I find you.

Anyway...

Whoever you are, you sing well.

aka Kamal.

What did you think? You'd come here and achieve something?

Just because you think Kamal is a Sikh, you feel--

It doesn't matter what I feel.

Your parents will feel a real jolt.

They call me a racist.

They are the real racists.

Which is why Vasudha is quietly...

agreeing to this marriage, otherwise--

Otherwise what? It wouldn't change anything.

You were just singing today.

Had you married her, you would have been a mess.

What do you mean?

Where will you live after the wedding?

-Chandigarh. -Bangalore.

Vasu, baby, my family is in Chandigarh.

But I have my job here.

Who will I teach Carnatic music in Chandigarh?

Teach something else--

What will you name your children?

Surjeet Natarajan or Vyankatesh Singh?

They'll where the sacred thread or bracelet?

Where will the ceremony take place?

Hindu Temple or Sikh temple?

Idli tastes best with sambhar...

-not with Masala. -Enough!

-Vasudha and I are in-- -In love?

So much that you'll leave your family and city...

and live here are a misfit?

Forget Sikh festivals and celebrate Pongal?

Forget wheat and have rice?

Dance to South Indian tunes instead of the Punjabi beat?

Even if you do...

the cultural difference is enormous.

Before you love someone else, learn to love yourself...

That's what matters in the long run.

Come! Come!

What do I do with this?

Keep it.

Maybe you'll learn to love someone other than you.

Sandy, why are you so restless?

It's not your wedding.

Kamal sent me this.

Dear Vasu...

Chandigarh or Bangalore, I want to be with you.

Surjeet or Savitri, whatever the name be...

they will be our kids.

They can wear the sacred bracelet or thread.

They can worship whoever they want.

As for me...

for the rest of my life

I will dance to your family's tunes,

be an outsider and be happy.

Looks like Kammu's message triggered Sandy as well.

Is this the same crab?

You still have it?

Yes.

Yes?

What really happened between you and Dia?

Well, I've told you the entire story.

How did it end?

What happened finally...

when you realized that enough is enough?

I've to show you something.

What?

Not like this.

Stupid.

Yes, dear.

All-wheel drive. It means, smoke mud--

This is the best day of my life.

And what did you do in return?

What enormous favor did you do that he bought you the car?

I just got him a land deal. That's it.

Which land did you sell?

Which land did you sell, Sriram?

You were never going to get that ashram.

I looked into it. Many builders were after it.

You had no chance.

I had a chance!

Before you sold that land through your company.

Open your orphanage somewhere else.

Yes, I sold it.

The highest bidder got the land!

No, Sriram.

Why am I doing all this?

For us!

So that you, your parents--

You did it for that.

You can point out my mistake

and you're ever ready to point out world's mistakes.

But do you notice your own flaws?

What have I done?

With the safety net of your wealthy family...

you cry about the poor.

You crib about the undernourished, sitting in an Italian restaurant.

Wiping the tears off the oppressed for ten minutes...

doesn't make you a hero.

If you empathize so much, why don't you go stay with them?

Can you?

No, right?

Commentating is an easy job, Dia.

Playing the match is the real deal!

Debates, demonstrations, protests that's all you can do.

Then, what's the difference between you and me?

Maybe you get a high by putting down others around you...

so that you can feel better about yourself.

No one is a hundred percent correct, Dia.

Everyone has flaws, but you just can't accept that.

You, your lifestyle, your fake social work...

Why can't you just be normal? Why?

For God's sake, stop weeping, and don't ever lecture me again.

I will never say a word to you again.

She went back to Delhi.

Sandy, what do you think?

Does Vasudha also think it's my fault?

If I wouldn't have bought the monastery, someone else would have.

Girls, I tell you.

I wish they were all like you.

What happened?

Sriram is a little late.

He's upset since last night.

His pet died.

Yes.

-Sriram is here! -He's here.

Sriram is here!

You shouldn't have sold the ashram.

And you should've stopped Dia.

You say you've forgotten her.

You not only remember the time you spent with her...

but the exact dates as well.

Your face lights up when you talk about her.

Remember our first date?

It was the exact same restaurant you took her.

I'm a complete rebound case.

You've only ever loved one person...

And you said this yourself.

Really?

Then why do you seem more upset than me about this wedding?

Because of Sandy.

Last night--

The last link between you and Dia.

And last night, you lost him.

And you lost Dia forever.

If Kamal and I had even half the moments of your love story...

I wouldn't be here today.

If you have any sense

and if you can keep your ego aside for just a minute...

Then leave this wedding and run for it.

Think again, Sriram.

Think again.

If you still want to marry me...

I'm sitting right here.

Come on, Sriram. Time for the Kashi Yatra.

Don't leave the wedding and go to Kashi.

Marry my daughter.

If you leave, where will she go?

If you get married, your life will be ruined.

Run!

My girl will worship you...

feed you and love you like no other.

-Go! -Go!

Fly, my son!

Run away, son!

Sriram, if you're my son, run! Run!

Run!

-Go! -Run!

He's going for Kashi Yatra!

Take a walk! You need to lose weight.

Hey! I was here first! What an idiot!

-Sorry, man! -Fool!

Is Dia here?

Dia isn't here, son.

Look...

I know...

you must be upset. And it's my fault...

But until I win her back--

Hey, hello!

She really isn't here. She's in Gujarat.

What?

For an NGO trip?

No, no. Less of the "N" and more of the "G-O."

Nowadays she comes here for a vacation, to her own home.

I had told you.

Don't be so lenient with her that we lose all control.

But what is she doing there?

I don't know, son.

For the last eleven months she's moved to a village.

What's it called...

Village?

On the border of Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat.

Don't worry, she'll be back.

Don't worry.

I'll bring her back.

How do you get to Jhumli?

Don't worry, son.

It's an easy route...

Let's have the thepla.

How does one get to Jhumli from Gondhva?

I hope I won't have to take another train!

No, no. Not a train.

How does one get from Sharavari Taal to Jhumli?

I hope there isn't another bus.

No, no. Not a bus.

The journey ends here. You'll have to walk.

Walk? Are you crazy?

Sir, this vehicle won't go ahead.

The road is naano.

So, we'll go in the Nano car?

Sir, not Nano.

Naano road.

In Gujarati, "naano" means small...

and "moto" means big.

There's another road.

Around the hillside.

Fifty-five kilometers long. It'll take four hours.

Ok. See you!

Let's go!

No. No.

Hey, bro!

Don't be afraid. Grip it like this and cross it.

It's very dangerous!

Moto dangerous.

It's simple!

I'll show you.

No, no! You'll slip and fall.

Hey Mowgli!

This isn't a circus!

Come on. Give me your hand. Don't worry.

Come on.

Give me your hand.

Hold it. Come on. Come, come.

Be careful.

Come. Come.

Carefully. Carefully.

Carefully. Carefully.

Hey! Watch out!

Watch it!

Careful. Slowly.

Come on.

Oh brother, my brother

Why do you fear?

The earth is ours And so is the water

Now I understand why...

Dia is stuck on this side of the bridge.

Who the hell can cross this?

I love your glasses!

Forget it.

Tell me.

You mean Fair Lady?

Come. Come.

-Come. -Fair Lady?

Come.

And this. This is Uncle Mohan's house.

He's the head of the village.

What are you doing? Are you blind?

Aunt Laali?

Should I pick Laali up on my back and cross the bridge?

And who'll pick you up then?

The Almighty?

I'll go to the opposite end and pull the rope.

So that the bridge falls apart?

Do you expect me to get a helicopter then?

No, Fair Lady!

I can't go ahead!

Should we take the other road?

Uncle, the other road is around the hillside!

It'll take five hours.

Mohanbhai, let's turn around.

Laali trying to cross the bridge in this state...

can spell trouble.

How will we reach the hospital?

I will deliver Laali's child.

You?

Who delivered Chanda?

Relax. Come on. Come on, guys. Let's hurry.

But Chanda was a goat.

We know. Now let's go.

Come on! Pull!

Dear me!

Budhna, you loser!

Next time, you try giving birth to the child!

It's a girl.

And thank God she resembles the mother...

You hear, Budhna?

You're a father. Again!

Deal with your addiction!

Or I'll beat you up!

First, she was crazy. Now she has completely lost it.

She's delivering babies in the middle of nowhere!

I'm happy here.

Really happy.

This is the world's most beautiful place.

You have a Grey strand...

Yeah, I've noticed.

Let's go back home.

You'd see me and... you'd do this.

I'm done with that chapter of my life.

So, you won't return?

No.

And spend your life here...

-in this village? -Yes.

In this dirt and poverty?

Yes.

What are you trying to do?

Your Bangalore social work was better.

You haven't changed.

You must be exhausted.

Stay over tonight in the hut nearby...

take some photos and leave tomorrow.

Dia, I'm not a tourist.

Anyway, there isn't anything here worth seeing.

Except for dirt and poverty.

And who's Sriram?

Show us some moves, girl.

Come on, move it!

You... You just delivered a child...

A girl.

Do you need more gravy?

No, thank you.

What's going on here?

Do you get any chicken here?

Chicken?

For chicken you'll have to travel a lot!

You won't get it here.

Dia was right.

There's a serious problem in Jhumli.

No chicken in the village!

Oh, honey!

Why don't they leave me alone? What's their problem?

They're trying to tell you to return home.

Really?

I thought they're telling me to get married.

Here, look at this...

I've been pranking these idiots since morning.

If you make fun of them, I'll slap you!

Hello, Mohanbhai, right?

But if you wish, you can call me Sridevi...

just like the Fair Lady does.

By "Lady" they mean sister.

Sister?

Just the Fair One.

The fairest of the village.

I don't know Gujarati.

Please stop this drama.

We have some important business to attend to.

Mohanbhai, where are you going?

Sridevi brother, Madam and I are going to visit Lateshbhai,

the Regional Collector.

What does he collect? Stamps?

He collects taxes for no benefit. And curses from all the villagers.

Now if you're done with your investigation

please leave and stop irritating me!

No, Dia. I won't leave.

I proclaim it, and the heavens above

I've fallen for you Like an innocent dove

Oh, I'm in love! I'm in love! I'm in--

...love!

Hey, Salman Khan!

What's the problem? Come?

We'll have to cross this very bridge to go back home.

One minute, one minute, Mother India.

This is my son.

Last Sunday was his 18th birthday.

I asked him, "What do you want?"

What did you say?

Here you go.

Dad, can I drive it?

No.

-about the bridge-- -Sir...

is that your father?

That's my father.

Forever in his own world.

Gandhian.

Hero for the world. But a zero at home.

He was a part of the party for thirty-five years, but what did he do for his son?

Nothing!

The property, farmhouse the buffaloes, I've earned it all!

He gave me nothing.

All he has, is a family property in Narora.

But he won't let go of it either!

Neither does he sell it, nor does he give it to me.

Lateshbhai, you've been ignoring us for six months.

Yesterday a pregnant woman was stuck--

Is the delivery complete?

Yes. But it should've happened at a hospital.

I'm not talking to you.

I'm asking him.

Sir, if you'll just give us the balance payment--

Yes.

Stand here.

Bloody beggars asking for money! Throw him out!

It's not about the money.

There's something that's way more important than money.

Respect!

I had given you people a chance.

Give me ten acres of land from Jhumli and make your bridge.

Lateshbhai it's about the principle.

Being the regional collector,

it's your duty to have the bridge constructed.

If you refuse to make the bridge

I will be forced to approach MP Kirtibhai.

Dad, may I drive it?

No!

If the bridge is constructed

all Jhumli's problems will be solved.

A three-crore rupee bridge, just for a village of 270 people?

There's no chance!

I don't know about three crores

but this bridge will be done in three months.

Dad, may I drive it?

No!

Who's this?

Are you an engineer?

Sir, I'm an architect. Which is why I know.

Dad, may I drive it?

Drive it up your backside!

Okay. Okay, Mother India.

You've got your contractor so that he can make his commission.

No. I understand all these tricks! You son of a--

Sriram, one minute.

Dad, may I drive it?

Yeah, drive it!

Dad!

You son of a donkey!

What have you done? You've wrecked my new car!

You fool! Idiot!

You can shove your bridge up a donkey's behind!

Now suffer in Jhumli without one.

I will never construct that bridge!

You're exactly like your stupid mother!

Just wait and watch. I'll get the bridge constructed!

Uncle!

You've raised such an idiot!

You're a Gandhian.

Just give him the property.

And in return, tell him to construct our bridge.

I'll build the bridge.

The distance between you and me.

I'll cover it by constructing the...

Just get it approved by MP Kirtibhai...

I'll handle the rest.

Did you like my...

Go play.

One minute. One minute.

is going to use his rusted architecture degree,

work hard, stay in this village

and construct a bridge for me?

Not for you, Fair One.

I'm doing this for these poor, helpless villagers.

Stop this "Miss India" speech.

What's the real deal?

Their problems won't be solved until this bridge is constructed.

Until their problems are solved, you won't leave.

And until I leave, your problem won't be solved.

Ok. Done.

What's done?

The day the bridge is made, I'll return with you to Bangalore.

Really? You're sure?

-You aren't fooling me, right? -Fair Lady!

What's Rattan saying?

Sridevibhai will be constructing the bridge for us?

Then we'll be able to take the big bus to the big school?

It won't be easy.

Never mind constructing a bridge...

you won't even last ten days here.

Start counting Fair One.

I'll manage.

Because this is the world's most beautiful place.

And I love the smell of cow dung.

Come on, my boy! Uncle's got you dhokla

We know you don't like it But that's all you'll get

Come on, my boy! Uncle's got you dhokla

We know you don't like it But that's all you'll get

What the hell is wrong? Where have I ended up?

What the hell is wrong? Where have I ended up?

Juliet made her moves Before Romeo could lift a finger

What the hell is wrong? Where have I ended up?

My ship has sunk

I'm ruined

My Fair One, There's something seriously wrong

With your love

My ship has sunk

I'm ruined

My Fair One, There's something seriously wrong

With your love

Come on, my boy! Uncle's got you dhokla

We know you don't like it But that's all you'll get

Come on, my boy! Uncle's got you dhokla

We know you don't like it But that's all you'll get

I hand her the strings to my heart She whips me with it

When I fall to her feet She kicks me instead

No matter what you do You'll always find me here

I'll live in a small hut And trouble you every day

I'm drowning in the sea of love

I used to think I'm a swimmer But now I realize I'm a deep-sea diver

My ship has sunk

I'm ruined

My Fair One, There's something seriously wrong

With your love

Come on, my boy! Uncle's got you dhokla

We know you don't like it But that's all you'll get

Come on, my boy! Uncle's got you dhokla

We know you don't like it But that's all you'll get

Come on, my boy! Uncle's got you dhokla

We know you don't like it But that's all you'll get

Come on, my boy! Uncle's got you dhokla

We know you don't like it But that's all you'll get

Come on, my boy! Uncle's got you dhokla

We know you don't like it But that's all you'll get

Who do you think you are?

My father gave his life for that bridge.

You think you can construct it with your tomfoolery?

You'll fall flat on your face, mate.

And you won't have anyone to pick you up.

The day I find a barbecue grill...

you'll go missing!

What do I say about Mahato?

His father, Dhanji, he did a lot for this village.

But see his luck.

This bridge was the reason he lost his life.

He suffered a heart attack...

and we couldn't even take him to the hospital?

Just watch me...

I'll get this bridge constructed.

This Mahato is a twit.

He doesn't respect his elders.

Now, you're the Head here.

Sure.

Mohanbhai... did you drop something?

Then... why are you always slouching?

Yes, well done.

These ninety feet seem like nine thousand.

Where's the screw? Where's the screw?

No, no. Forget it. Let's get going.

Lateshbhai said Kirtibhai is so strict...

he doesn't entertain anyone.

There's an entire line waiting here.

What now, Madam?

What do you mean, "What now?" Let's get in line!

Spiritual Ceremony?

No. It's his mother's death anniversary.

HOMAGE

-This is a prayer meeting. -RASILABEN KOTHARI

For Kirtibhai's mother.

Lunch is being served. You think they'll have chicken?

Yes. Why not? Why don't you ask them?

Come, Mohanbhai.

Damn it!

Madam, Lateshbhai.

Crazy as ever.

Greetings, Kirtibhai.

I'm Dia Sharma.

From Jhumli.

I know this isn't the right time...

but it's really important.

Uncle! Just give him the property.

And spare all our lives.

Just look at those security guards.

They'll beat us to pulp.

Twenty-seven people have lost their life due to the bridge.

Here's the report. Kindly review it, please.

We'll formally discuss it later.

We're dead!

Taari Maane!

How did these people enter?

I get just one day of the year to remember my deceased mother.

And you want me to serve these idiots on that day?

What are you waiting for? Throw them out!

-Throw them out. -Get out!

Please leave.

I'll set you straight! Get out! Taari Maane!

And you get out, Mother India! Get lost!

Not Mother India! I'm Grandmother India.

And I promise you'll go crying back to her.

Now I'll go straight to the Chief Minister.

Go to the Prime Minister for all I care. Get lost!

Get out of here! Taari Maane!

Not me, Taari Maane!

What's "Taari Maane"?

It means "Your mother's..." in Gujarati.

-Not mine! Your mother's... -Your mother!

Your mother's...

What?

Your mother...

Your mother Rasilaben deserves a great honor.

Which is why we specifically brought this proposal to you today.

We want to name the Jhumli bridge...

after your mother, Rasilaben Bridge.

We just came to seek your blessing.

My...

My mother... a bridge in her name?

I'm touched.

Kirtibhai, you don't know this guy. He's a scoundrel.

You numbskull!

How dare you come between me and my mother?

A bridge in my mother's name...

will be constructed in Jhumli.

The foundation stone shall be laid tomorrow.

Hail, Lord Sri Ram!

-Hail, Lord Sri Ram! -Hail, Lord Sri Ram!

No, no. They deserve some credit as well.

Every saint says

Sadhu says

The one with pure heart and courage

Always triumphs!

Once the bridge is constructed

the children will be able to attend school.

It'll be easy.

You'll really be sorry...

the day I exact revenge for that slap.

And this slap won't hurt your body.

It'll break your soul.

Kirtibhai, you heard that?

The path calls you Don't make it wait any longer

You, come along

You're the king of this land

Know this for sure

Go and meet hardships head on

Do you think I'm a fool?

Making this bridge for you lazy people?

Stop taking my things.

Sriram, I'm not coming back with you.

Liar! Scammer!

That was a joke.

What do you think?

Jhumli is the only village with problems?

As soon as the issues here are resolved

I'll move to another village.

Fine.

Then I'll follow you there as well.

I ran away from my wedding for you.

I'm not going away until... you come running back to me.

Why don't you get it?

I get it.

But I also know that you aren't as emotionless...

as you're portray yourself to be.

What do I do with this?

Break open you head?

Then you'll lose one brick of the bridge.

This is the first brick of the bridge's foundation.

Tomorrow you'll get your return gift as well.

You won't see the white hair, anymore.

I love the old Dia.

Now seem like forty-five.

The lights turn on The night ends

When our eyes meet

The heat mellows The sun cools down

When our eyes meet

My eyes are deceiving me I'm constantly dreaming about you

I've started feeling your heartbeats In my heart

The eyes!

These beautiful dark eyes These playful eyes

Now look at the world With a different gaze

The eyes!

These beautiful dark eyes These playful eyes

Now look at the world With a different gaze

Is this really happening? I've always wished for this

Has he changed? Has my world changed?

My eyes are deceiving me I'm constantly dreaming about you

Slowly the heartbeats have started pacing

The eyes!

The eyes!

These beautiful dark eyes These playful eyes

Now look at the world With a different gaze

The eyes!

The eyes!

Mom, stop crying! Mom!

Dad is very serious this time.

He's cut off all ties with you.

He's removed your name from the company as well.

Then tell him, I don't want anything from him!

You'll cut off blood ties for a North Indian girl?

Your Punjabi influence has affected poor Vasudha as well.

She's married to a Punjabi! A sardar... with a turban!

Come quick!

Move back!

-What's going on here? -What's happening?

From now on, the bridge work is shut!

-What do you mean? -You heard me!

What happened?

Kirtibhai is caught in a huge petrol scam...

and sent to jail.

He's been expelled from the party as well.

Which is why you can't make a bridge in his mother's name anymore.

-Who are they? -Hey!

-Do you understand? -Who are they?

This unexpected rainfall is so pleasant to see.

You don't have the same problem like "Lagaan", right?

No, sir. Why?

Then why are you so excited?

We won't plead to get this bridge constructed, anymore.

No Kirtibhai. No Lateshbhai. And no third idiot.

We'll make it ourselves.

Here's the architect. And here's the labor.

This tea isn't spiked, is it?

See how one shower of rain has brought them all together.

This is how we'll all construct the bridge together.

Dia we need to construct a bridge! Not cover it with blue plastic.

Are you with me, or not?

Forget me. No one's going to support you on this.

Fine. Stay out.

But beware...

before Lateshbhai gets here...

the entire Jhumli will be working on that bridge!

Looks like all the villagers have drowned in the rain.

Auntie, why did you come?

How will you work at this age?

No dear. We haven't come to work.

We have just come to tell you...

that no one will work on the bridge.

Yes.

Madam, it's the holy month of Death.

We can't start any new venture. It's bad luck.

Yes. If we enrage our forefathers, the bridge will collapse!

Yes, and next year we'll celebrate your month of death.

Madam, if we start after this month...

By then, Lateshbhai will hatch a new plot to stop us.

Fine.

Go worship your forefathers.

Whatever needs to be done...

I'll do myself.

Idiots! If you don't care, what am I doing?

Go to hell, all of you!

Lateshbhai, not ten, take twenty acres!

These guys won't utter a word!

There's no better way to honor my father.

Come.

Dude bro!

How long will it take to complete the bridge?

You're in a hurry!

What will you study to become?

Doctor or hero?

I don't know.

Come on, get back to work.

Hey, Sridevibhai.

Tell us what to do.

They won't leave me.

Sir. I'm done with a hundred.

You're done?

-Is there electricity? -Yes sir.

-Is the fan new? -Yes sir.

Then why isn't it working? Do another hundred.

Stop this nonsense.

Not you! Stop their nonsense.

Send them a notice.

Using government equipment and machinery is forbidden.

Do one thing.

Just seize all the material.

...do something.

Do something, Sridevibhai.

You twit! Do it correctly.

What if we name the bridge after your father?

After this old lunatic?

Who doesn't give his own son his property?

Are you out of your mind?

Uncle, just give it to him...

and tell him to construct the bridge in return.

Just twenty acres of land.

Ten that I wanted earlier for my farm...

and ten as the price of that slap.

Is this land of any use to you?

No. It's a wasteland.

Then sign it.

Look, there's no other way.

But, Madam--

We'll have to do it secretly.

Nothing works in this country without give-n-take.

We understand all this. Dia and her principles won't get it.

Very good!

Consider your bridge is ready.

Sir, just one request.

Until the bridge isn't constructed, you don't step into Jhumli.

The thing is, once the bridge is made, Dia will leave with me.

Then you're happy and the villagers are happy as well.

How did you convince Lateshbhai?

I looked deep into his eyes and said...

...recover the cost of the bridge from me!

At least you bowed down to someone.

Yeah. But he has really hairy legs.

I'm sure, in your love, he'll get those shaved as well.

Hey, Sridevi!

Looks like I'll have to start packing.

Hey, guy!

How have you managed to unlock our destiny

Hey, girl!

Because of you, All my desires have been fulfilled

I've turned upside down

I've turned backwards

-And I've lost my heart yet again -And I've lost my heart yet again

This rowdy girl teases me As she chews on her chewing gum

I’m rowdy guy as well, I'll stick on to her like a magnet

She is very dangerous She gets people to dance to her tunes

She always cons innocent people

This rowdy girl teases me As she chews on her chewing gum

I was always like this You couldn't recognize my potential

Have some shame You were a total loser before you met me

Yes, he's a bit useless But it's your problem now

Whatever he may be The guy is mine

I became naughty And I sobered up

When this sign flashed

This rowdy girl teases me As she chews on her chewing gum

I’m rowdy guy as well, I'll stick on to her like a magnet

She is very dangerous She gets people to dance to her tunes

She always cons innocent people

This rowdy girl teases me As she chews on her chewing gum

Your intentions seem fishy

Your walk and talk confuses me

She used to be a snooty one

Look at her dancing openly

Yes, he's a little stupid But, he's yours

The guy is a jobless But he's nice nonetheless

Yes, now I get it

But I'm confused

How has this happened?

This rowdy girl teases me As she chews on her chewing gum

I’m rowdy guy as well, I'll stick on to her like a magnet

She is very dangerous She gets people to dance to her tunes

She always cons innocent people

This rowdy girl teases me As she chews on her chewing gum

This rowdy girl teases me As she chews on her chewing gum

This rowdy girl teases me As she chews on her chewing gum

This rowdy girl teases me As she chews on her chewing gum

This rowdy girl teases me As she chews on her chewing gum

Madam, what's the point of arguing with me?

Why don't you talk to your "hero"?

Lateshbhai, you said you'll come here only after the bridge is constructed.

Yeah. But my factory plans were ready. So, why not?

Damn it! Let him have it, man!

Whether he makes a farm or factory...

or the Taj Mahal, our bridge is getting constructed, right?

That is why I didn't want to give him the land.

They will contaminate the water around here.

The entire Jhumli will be ruined and displaced. Finished!

Lateshbhai, you won't set up a plant here.

The deal is done!

Look at this.

Lateshbhai you've conned me!

Stop this nonsense and get out of here.

Why are you so enraged Mr. Hero?

When did you start caring about the village?

You're getting what you want.

You said it yourself that once the bridge is complete

I'll take my heroine across it and leave.

Didn't you say it?

And remember what I had promised?

The slap that will break your soul?

In six months, I will set this chemical plant up

and ruin your stupid Jhumli.

That's Lateshbhai Dhaneshbhai Shah's

promise to you.

Hail Lord Sri Ram!

Come on! Run along!

Dia, stop it, man!

He is intentionally doing this!

He's such a rascal.

You've repeated the same mistake.

Again!

Dia, whatever I'm doing, I'm not doing it for myself...

Again?

I'll do something.

I'll find a way--

Now, you can't do anything.

If you want to help, pack your bags.

Now solving this mess is my responsibility.

Not yours.

I'm not leaving this village.

Then I'm leaving.

After doing so much, this is what I get?

Dude bro!

Dude bro!

I didn't say it that day...

but when I grow up, I want to be like you.

Have some, dear. You must have it.

Dad, it's Sriram.

-Dad, I-- -Need money?

Bored of the village?

Want to return home?

Just wanted to say...

you were right.

And wrong as well.

There is someone in this world who idolizes me.

And I will not abandon him.

What happened?

The black sheep...

isn't black anymore.

Hello, Madam.

I haven't ever spoken up before.

But he had told me slouching isn't the way.

Which is why for the first time, I wish to voice my opinion.

If he was wrong, so was I.

And he wasn't wrong.

After all, he was the one constructing the bridge.

Fair Lady, they're here.

Come on. Hurry up! I don't have all day.

Come, come all of you.

I took care of one idiot, now I'll have to deal with the remaining idiots.

-Lateshbhai, this factory-- -Enough!

Your "hero" had come to me this morning.

I felt like giving beating the crap out of him!

Whatever you want, say it quick.

There.

My ego is kneeling before you.

Do whatever you wish to me but...

But please leave the village alone. Right?

I now get what my father has been trying to tell me.

All I want is...

for you to understand...

what your father doesn't tell you.

You've lost it.

Even I have sworn on my father...

I won't leave that village.

Now tell me. What are you going to do about it?

I'll stop you.

Stop me?

How?

I don't know. But I'll find a way.

Whatever it takes.

I won't let that village get ruined.

Are you done?

Done?

Now leave.

Someone get him out of here. Get out!

Hey! What are you doing? Let me go!

Leave that village alone. Or I'll kill him.

You want to kill him?

Dad do something!

Kill him!

If my father was never there for me, why should I be there for my son?

-Kill him. Go ahead. -Dad, what are you saying?

Let me go!

Kill him! Go ahead.

Enough. Enough. Stop.

Stop. You'll kill him.

Why are you here?

I don't like all this.

Throw him out of here. Respectfully!

You're a persistent fellow.

What happened to you?

Property papers.

Sell it.

But ensure their bridge gets constructed.

Else, I will no longer be your father,

and you'll no longer be my son.

Uncle!

Why so late?

He will never change, son.

I was just waiting to see...

when you would change.

Dad, this is a "hero".

Now, that's what I mean by a slap on the soul.

How could I live at home?

My father and son, both consider him a hero.

Hey! Take that down!

Keep your land and your bridge.

But where is he?

Where else?

He must be slogging his behind at your bridge!

Hold on, Mother India!

He told me to show you one more thing.

I don't know why he told me to do this.

But how does it look, Mayankbhai?

I ran away from my wedding for you.

I'm not going away until... you come running back to me.

Oh, Fair One!

You can take the new one!

I mean, the bridge!

Oh, honey!

Dude bro won't talk to you.

What? You're crying?

I think all city girls should run off to a village.

The country will be saved.

Now what?

Should I pack your bags as well?

Who said I'm coming home with you?

I said I'll come the day this bridge is made.

This is still incomplete.

Will you come with me?

Your bridge is complete!

Lateshbhai, may God bless you!

Thank you very much!

Put those sticks down.

WELCOME TO JHUMLI

-Be careful! -I'm faster!

Let's go?

Sure.

When's the train leaving?

Mom will make some pongal by the time we get back.

Tell me something,

can we stay back in a nearby village?

There's no electricity there.

-You want me to become an electrician now? -Yeah. What's the big deal?

Okay, just for a week.

-Okay. Five days. -Five days?

Mom's dinner?

Liar!

Scammer!

Oh, honey!

Dad will throw me out again!
