[theme music playing]
[theme music concludes]
[family laughing]
[Cheeku] Babi, when we used to go to shopping,
he would look at the embroidery instead of the clothes.
He still does it.
[Cheeku] Actually, he thought he could impress girls with that.
-Look at her. -[all laugh]
This is too much. [chuckles]
-[Dabbu] Aha! Samosas. -[upbeat instrumental music playing]
Wow. Looks good.
Arrey, if you do all this,
then I won't let you both get married.
Arrey, his hands work too. He can serve himself.
If you start serving him now,
then he will boss you around forever. [chuckles]
-Arrey yaar. Cheeku? -[Cheeku] Yes?
-I will help myself. -Where is Maji?
She'll be here soon.
You know, two hours after sunrise
and two hours before sunset, even if someone dies,
Maji won't stop her Maataji's prayers.
[all laugh]
Don't say that.
Move away from the samosas.
Put it down. Give it. Leave the samosa.
Uh…
-[sighs] Give it to me. -That's for you.
You made them, Veda?
[retches]
Did you put sugar in it?
Not sugar, Dadi. I've put sweet potato.
-Hmm. -It's healthy. You can eat them.
If I can't even eat them, how will they be good for my health?
Do you hate potatoes, huh?
We don't hate them, Dadi, really.
Anyone who eats potatoes ends up becoming one.
[all laugh]
They are made for each other.
Arrey, even as a kid, he used to take the potatoes out of his parathas
and just eat them plain.
By the way, why this new generation is so obsessed with fitness,
-I just don't understand. -Ma.
Not only anti-potato.
I guess these two have a lot in common.
Yeah, I mean, three months of talking and walking together is paying off.
[laughs]
[Cheeku] Babiji, we can never know what the universe has planned
for all of us.
It's crazy how Dabbu and I saw each other after 12 years,
and then he convinced me to come to your place for some chai,
and before we could even finish our chai,
Arjun came home.
Who knew that, instead of vegetables, I would bring an in-law?
Here I was matching their horoscopes
and they were both busy finding out every little thing about each other.
Sufi songs, Chinese food,
traveling the world, going on treks,
becoming CEOs. [chuckles] All the same things.
-Mama, stop it, please. -Arrey, why stop it?
What's wrong with talking
-about things with the family? -[Dabbu] Mm!
You know, I really think that you two are so lucky, that…
you are so compatible together.
[Rina] You better say yes soon, bhaisaab.
If our boy grabs your dear daughter and runs off with her in a Rajdhani,
then please don't complain to us.
Arrey, I think we should let them run away.
We will save some money.
[all laugh]
Excuse me, Baba?
-Uh, sorry. -Have you had sex?
[music fades]
[clock ticking]
Have you done it?
-Tell me. -Hmm?
Mom!
What is this nonsense?
The reason you were born is because of this nonsense.
-You all are nonsensical. -Dadi…
Veda, we are talking about marriage here, so I asked.
Before you even buy a small car, you test drive it, right?
[music resumes]
Yeah.
So no test drive before marriage?
[Dadi] This is marriage, beta.
This is what will drive your entire life.
Sorry.
Maji, I think you're not feeling well. Come.
[Rina] No, no, let her speak.
-Do you think our son can't do it? -Yes.
-Cheeku, yaar, what is this? -I'm… I'm…
-Dadi, we are getting married. -That's why I said all this.
[music concludes]
And you all should also wonder about my granddaughter.
Forget about us.
They both should wonder if they are compatible or not
-inside the bedroom. -[chuckles]
It's really good.
It's really good that they both like Chinese food, very good.
But for how long will noodles keep them together?
After working hard to reach the position of CEO,
what will make them want each other at home?
To listen to Sufi music?
Or to plan their trekking trip?
[clicks tongue]
No.
Even if their horoscopes don't match perfectly,
if the sex is satisfying,
then they both will never, ever leave each other.
[grunts]
[Dadi chanting]
[chants]
[tense music playing]
[train rumbling]
[insects chirping]
[Veda] Dadi…
[Dadi] Hmm. Come, come.
[grunts]
-[Veda] Sorry, did I wake you up? -No, no, I was just lying down. Come here.
You are so funny, Dadi.
-[chuckles] -No, no.
I wasn't joking.
Dadi! Like a nuclear attack happened.
You know, one blast rocked two homes.
Forget about Mom and Dad, poor Dabbu Uncle and Rina Auntie…
You should have seen their faces!
Yes, poor them…
Here.
That's the problem with the world.
-All think poorly. -[Veda] Hmm.
How is Arjun?
He's fine. He's cool.
He just couldn't stop… [chuckles] …laughing about it.
Not reaction, Veda. I'm asking about action.
[upbeat music playing]
-[Veda laughs] -How's he?
-I'll… I'll find out and let you know. -Hurry.
Hurry? What's the hurry, Dadi?
So…
you're not in a hurry?
[sighs] This means you both are not made for each other.
Everything is not about sex, okay?
And I am--
I'm not that inexperienced. I know. I… I have had boyfriends.
[breathes deeply]
But…
marriage is something else only.
What I'm actually saying to you, that you should marry the person
with whom the sex is good.
Rather what I want to say is the person you finally marry…
make sure…
the sex is amazing with him.
[laughs] Fine. Understood!
Understood. But…
why didn't I see this side of you before?
Dadi, you are so passionate, you are so sexy.
You're such a rock star, Dadi.
If your dadu hadn't died at such a young age, you know,
this door would still be locked from the inside at night.
Wow!
I mean, he was that good?
Not just that he was good, we were good.
[laughs]
Open this. Open the small drawer.
It's the last packet.
Dadi, this…
Even if the chances are low, why take one?
I always kept some here.
Or else, who knows,
maybe you would have grown up with your little uncle.
Hey, let it be, leave it.
It's expired already, like your grandfather.
Tell me one thing. Come.
[Dadi grunts]
-You had an arranged marriage, right? -Yes.
So how did you know that you both would be compatible?
It was an arranged marriage for the people who were arranging it,
-no? -[Veda] Hm.
We went near the river…
[soft romantic music playing]
[Dadi] …the sugarcane fields,
a bogie in the railway yard,
and so many other places to check our compatibility.
It's so easy… [grunts]
…for you guys these days, right? Huh?
-You can do it. -[chuckling] D-- Dadi, come on!
-[Dadi] You can do it. -Dadi, I'm going.
[chuckling] You are so sexy!
["Khelo Khellum" playing]

[female singer vocalizing]
-[song ends abruptly] -[insects chirping]
[Suchi] I'm getting worried now. We don't have much time.
[Cheeku] The date is set, it will be all right.
[Dadi] Where did you go, huh?
Arrey, thank God!
That even after everything you said, Dabbu and my friendship is still alive.
Twenty-eighth of next month is good date for the wedding.
Everything needs to be good before the wedding.
Arrey. Mom, have you lost it? You try to reason with her.
Hey.
Let me tell you, this wedding won't happen
-till Veda and Arjun-- -Hey, Bhagavan!
[tense music playing]
What do you want?
Before every relationship, she should test every guy?
Chee!
What chee? Huh?
What chee?
I don't want to make the same mistake again.
Because of your habit of saying "chee-chee" to these things,
today, Suchi's life has become like this.
What is wrong with my life now?
[scoffs] It's over.
It died right after your marriage.
But I'm happy, Maji.
[scoffs]
One who has not felt happiness for years, how would she know what happiness means?
When was the last time you two slept together?
-Ma! -[shushes]
Don't shout.
Just giving birth to a child
does not prove that you have a good sex life.
I'm not saying that there is a problem with you or her.
The problem is your relationship.
You have just turned 52 and she is 48.
Before starting new relationships,
fire up the old ones.
I should have told you both about all this
when her parents first came to us with the proposal.
[somber music playing]
It's already 1:00 at night and Veda isn't home yet. [sobs]
[Dabbu] Arjun hasn't come home yet either.
That was a farewell party, so maybe Veda also went along with him.
Or maybe they went to clear your maji's doubt.
[laughs] What say?
Yaar, that is your son,
and she is my daughter.
You shouldn't joke about these things, Dabbu.
Sorry, sorry, sorry, just-- just-- sorry, sorry, sorry.
[rings]
[female voice vocalizing]
-[Dadi] How was it, girl? -What?
[grunts] I left God and came here for you.
How was it?
[female voice vocalizing]
[Veda] Dadi… Nice.
"Nice" are those biscuits with sugar on top.
No, no, no, no, no, we are-- we are-- we are-- We're good. We're good.
We're good.
Did Mount Fuji happen?
What?
It was your dadu's code word.
He used to ask me every time.
You know our bodies, they are like volcanoes like Mount Fuji.
We are fully satisfied only when it erupts.
-[laughing] -[soft music playing]
Mount Fuji.
Dadi.
I really didn't know you were so wild inside. My God.
I mean, why do you hide this and we only see you praying all the time?
Praying keeps the mind clear, you know?
Did it erupt?
-It… It did. -For both?
Hmm.
Dadi, you're just so embarrassing yaar. This is very embarrassing, Dadi.
Embarrassing is better than depressing.
Okay.
Uh…
Dadi, it was the first time, you know, and you know guys, they erupt first.
Maybe I'm just too hot for them, you know?
-Too hot. -Is Arjun not hot enough?
No, he's… he's… he's so hot. I mean, he's so gorgeous.
Maybe I was tensed.
Performance pressure, na?
And thanks to you, you were in my head, sitting on the bed.
God!
You know what, Dadi? Um…
I'm happy. I'm good.
It's unnecessary for Mount Fuji to erupt every time.
It's not you. I'm worried for Arjun.
He is sensitive.
He is not like most other men who just turn around and sleep,
even if their partners are left unsatisfied.
He will think it's his fault.
How will he know that I wasn't satisfied?
He thinks I… erupted.
[female voice vocalizing]
[clears throat] Then…
Then your marriage will definitely be very sad.

[in English] Come.
What do I say?
Um, that you're here to have tea. Come!
[chanting indistinctly]
Dadi.
Where are you going?
[Veda] Uh, Dadi, I didn't want to disturb you.
It is not possible to disturb the one who is already very disturbed.
Uh…
Dadi…
[resumes chanting indistinctly]
[chuckles]
We…
Dadi, we are fi-- fine.
Dadi, we are fully on.
[continues chanting]
We, uh… Dadi, we both…
Everything is great.
[continues chanting]
Dadi…
Dadi, we are in love.
[continues chanting]
Dadi, if you--
Dadi, if you don't wanna listen to us, then we'll just go.
We…
[chants indistinctly]
We left a 23,000-rupee suite room to come and talk to you.
Why are you wasting our time, Dadi?
-[chuckles] That… that… -[soft music playing]
That's all I wanted to hear.
Waste of time. Eh?
Now that you feel that this is a waste of time
means you were enjoying doing something so much
that you want to waste all your precious time doing it.
-Hmm? -[both chuckle]
I pray to God that you both always feel this passion.
Look at him. He's blushing so much.
If you would have heard what all Dadi said to me,
you would have lost it completely!
He's blushing like a squishy tomato.
I just wanna…
Dadi, she fights a lot.
I don't think this relationship will last more than a year.
Oh! Ouch!
Which hotel were you at?
-Do you have a boyfriend? -Shh, not so loud.
Or else he will come at night to haunt me.
[clears throat]
If the bond is strong, you'll be able to handle each other for years.
Don't ever let this bond get weak. Don't let it get boring, hmm?
Uh, what do they call people who take drugs?
-Junkie? -Oh, no, no, no.
Junkie.
-They're called something else. -Addict?
-Yes, yes. -Addict.
You two should be absolutely addicted to each other.
They'll pull you.
A lot of things will pull you away.
But if the sex between you is great,
then you won't be able to stay away. The chances are very low.
Even if you grow apart, those memories,
you know, will definitely bring you back to each other.
Sex is important for love.
-Hmm? -[female singer vocalizing]
Where are you going for the honeymoon?
Dadi, do we even need a honeymoon?
I do. For you.
Look. [clears throat]
The wedding night's Fuji.
[upbeat music playing]
-Don't laugh, listen carefully. -Hmm.
The wedding night's Fuji is more special than any other Fuji
which may have erupted before or after marriage.
Until that Fuji happens,
the two of you are not going to step outside this room.
-[laughs] Hey. Wha-- -[music concludes]
What did you say? Outside this room?
Dadi, this Mount Fuji, what is that?
[both laugh]
["Khelo Khellum" playing]
[all cheering, applauding]
Made for each other.
[Dadi] Now that your job as parents is over,
you go on a honeymoon too.
Make each other… Hmm.

Hi, Sammy.
[Sameera, over phone] Isheeta, you won't believe what Rohan has done.
What happened?
[Sameera] He's gone and applied for that loan.
We talked about it for weeks.
We had decided together that this is not a good time.
And then this morning,
he casually informs me that he has applied for it.
I mean, what's the point then? Should I just ignore it?
It's not a small amount, yeah?
And I don't understand why do we have to have the latest model of the damn car.
It's so unnecessary.
Ish, I'm so angry, I can't tell you.
[Isheeta] Yeah, I can understand.
[Sameera] It's totally going to fuck up my finances.
We just bought the house,
and he knows that I have to take care of Mom's treatment.
-And now, another EMI. -[car horn honking]
[Sameera] Why are you sounding so low? Everything okay?
[Isheeta] Sameera, I have migraine.
[Sameera] Oh, no. Again?
Ish, please go to the acupuncture lady. Just trust me.
-Yeah, I guess so. -[Sameera] Yeah.
Listen, I've reached home, huh.
[Sameera] Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. You go rest, okay?
-I'll call you later. -Yeah. Okay. Bye.

Didi is…
[Sameera] What? What? I can't hear you.
-She's having sex inside. -[upbeat music playing]
[Sameera] Didi? Which Didi?
-Seema Didi. -[Sameera gasps] What?
-Yeah. -[Sameera] Inside, meaning in your house?
On my bed.
[Sameera] What the fuck?
Why are you shouting?
[Sameera] What the fuck, Ish? That is disgusting. That's sick!
I know. I just froze and I ran out.
[Sameera] You ran out? Are they still in there or what?
Yeah.
[Sameera] And where are you?
On the landing.
[Sameera] Babe, are you mad?
That's your house. Your maid is in your bed.
You go back inside right now and fire her!
Listen, Sammy, I can't.
I just can't deal with this right now. I'm like… You know, my head.
My head is… killing me.
[Sameera] Listen, you go inside. Otherwise, I'm coming there.
And I mean it! Fuck! Seema!
And with whom? You think she's having an affair or…?
-I don't know. -[door rattles]

I got done late from work yesterday.
But you got home late the day before too. The tap is like a fountain now.

Accha, the watchman said

You left the window open.
[clicks tongue] No.
I shut all the windows before leaving yesterday.
The bathroom window was open.
Right?

There were so many mosquitos.
The food was also not nice. Same thing every day.

-Increase the pixel size of this. -[cell phone ringing, vibrating]

There's something with me, you know?
Past couple of months, I've been getting
these pounding headaches in the afternoon.

So, my friend's mother told me about this amazing acupuncture guy,
uh, who fixed her in just two sessions.
It's very difficult to get an appointment, you know, from him,
so I have to go again today.

Listen to me. Wait!
-[Kamal] No, I heard a sound. -Wait, wait. She can't come at this time.
What are you say… [gasps]
What's happening here in my house?
What are you up to?
What do you mean?
What's happening here?
-Huh? -You…
-So, you were hiding here and watching us? -Shut up!
Why shut up, huh?
Don't you have any shame?
You are hiding and watching us from here?
Look how her pants are open! Chee!
-You're such a dirty woman. Chee! -[Isheeta] What?
-Please, Seema. Please, calm down. -[Isheeta] What bullshit is this?
First you do disgusting things on my bed with him,
and then you accuse me of being wrong?
Eh? What do you mean disgusting?
Whatever I'm doing, I'm doing it with my husband.
Not like you, looking at others and enjoying it.
-God, you are such a dirty woman. -I'm dirty?
What are you saying? Have you gone mad?
I'm dirty? Huh?
You are the one lying naked on my bed and messing around.
-And I'm dirty? -[Kamal] Sor-- Sor-- Sorry, madam.
-Uh, please-- -You wanna sleep with your man, right?
Then go and do it in your house.
-I trusted you with my house keys. -[Kamal] Please let it go, madam.
-And you used it to-- -What exactly did I use your keys for?
Did I steal anything from your house?
-[Isheeta] One minute-- -You gave me the keys for work.
Because you can't wake up and open the bloody door!
-[Isheeta] Keep your voice down. -[Seema] Why should I?
Can you tell her to keep her voice down?
You gave me the keys so I could look after your house!
[Isheeta] Stop shouting!
Do you even know where your things are kept?
I'm the one who washes your underwear.
Seema, what the hell are you saying? Please.
What do you mean by that? It's her house so she can say whatever she wants?
You are not bloody working here for free, okay?
I pay you a salary for it!
And you…
did you ask for my permission before you came up?
Did you ask me?
You tell me, how do I know who all she brings to my house, huh?
-I don't know. -What did you just say?
-Hey! Stop it! -Have you gone mad, huh?
-Or else I'll call the police, okay? -You wanna call the police? Call them.
-So-- Sorry, madam. Please. -Why you say sorry to her?
Did you hear what she said?
That I'm sleeping around with people and you are saying,
"Sorry, sorry, sorry" to her?
-Huh? -Just calm down!
She was watching us from there. She was watching both of us
-from that mirror. -What?
I will look at you?
-So who are you looking at? -I will look at you?
Even thinking about it is disgusting!
Disgusting for me.
Huh. Really, Didi?
Now I disgust you? I disgust you?
Food, clothes, dishes, I do everything and now you are disgusted by me?
You did not feel disgusted
when I cleaned your house like it was my own.
You did not feel disgusted then.
Can you do a single thing without my help?
You can't even get yourself a man.
Even to cool yourself, you bloody need me horny!
-Seema! -Get out!
-[Kamal] Seema, stop this nonsense! -Get out of my house.
Take whatever I owe you and just leave.
-Get out. -[Seema] Kamal, wait.
Give me that.
Take your keys back.
I don't want this job.
I don't need your money.
I'll find work at ten other places! Ha!
No one in this building will hire you.
I will tell everyone in the society
how you were naked on my bed and were fucking around!
Okay, so tell them.
You think I'll keep quiet?
I have seen everything with my own eyes.
How you sneak into the house like a mouse every day and hide behind the tree
to watch us and touch yourself every fucking day!
And you think people are gonna believe you?
You?
Fuck off!
[door slams]
Akkash, take this.
Bring back the change, yeah?
I am leaving now.
Arrey, don't you have to go to work today?
I will.
[doorbell rings]
Didi, today again, you're late for work?
-Sorry, Didi, there was no water at home. -[Isheeta] Okay, okay.
Just come inside and wash the dishes, I'm getting very late for work.
And please don't forget to clean the fans on Sunday.
Accha, Didi.
Seema was working with you for a very long time, right?
Why did she leave?
-[sighs] -[doorbell rings]
-Watchman said you wanted a maid? -[man] Yes.
Only for the dishes and cooking.
And also, I'm a vegan.
So don't use milk and curd.
-And not too much masala. -Okay.
Can you come at 9:00 tomorrow?
Sure. I will.
[man] Thank you.
What?
[Sameera] You didn't fire Seema that day?
-Actually, I was, uh-- -[Sameera] Babe!
You know, I've been hearing all sorts of crazy things.
Meaning?
[Sameera] So your seventh-floor neighbor was in my Bandra Mom's group, you know?
-She's been saying, like, crazy-- -What's she been saying?
[Sameera] She's been saying that you've been making your maid
-do stuff and watching and all. -[Isheeta] What?
[Sameera] Yeah. And then, apparently, she was asking for money also.
But then you guys have had some big fight
-and everybody in the building heard. -What did you say?
[Sameera] Babe, I didn't even know want to say.
Because I haven't even spoken to you.
You've just ghosted me, and I think--
I mean, did you even fire her?
Sammy, are you nuts?
I fired her and I didn't call you because I've been busy at work.
[Sameera] You know, Ish, there's been something on my mind.
And I really wanna ask you.
-So I'm just gonna go ahead and ask you. -Yeah.
[Sameera] You know when you and I used to live together
and Rohan used to come over?
You, by any chance, didn't watch Rohan and me--
No.
-And how can you even ask me this, Sammy? -[Sameera] Sorry, sorry.
Listen, I have to go now. I'll talk to you later, okay? Bye.
[elevator chimes]
-[automated voice] Please close the door. -She's the same one.
The same one with the bai scandal.
[man] This is her?

-Use the heart filter, no? -[Saayli] Wait.
Now see how cute you are looking?
-Okay. -Saayli? What's going on here, huh?
-Arrey! -What's going on here?
Take your hand off her!
Hands off. You're touching her, huh?
How dare you touch her?
Shall I go to your mother and tell her, huh?
Useless kid! And you, what were you--
-Arrey, please listen. -[Seema] What were you doing?
Hiding the phone, huh? Give me.
-Give me the phone. -We were discussing the paper…
Open it. What were you looking at? Tell me.
What did you close when I came here, huh?
-I'll show you now, huh? -I'm sorry.
-[Seema] What did you close? -We were discussing the paper.
[Seema] What do you think of yourself?
I'm your mother, I know what you're doing.
-[Saayli] I am sorry. -[Seema] Don't act smart, okay?
[sobbing]
[Seema] Nothing happened. Just go to sleep.
[Kamal] Why did you have to hit her?
So did you expect me to praise her?
No.
But you could have just yelled at her.
When you were that age, we ran away and got married.
So do you want her to marry that idiot?
You think that boy is right for her?
Is that what I said?
Then?
And you know everything, right? Huh?
What all is right, what is wrong.
Hmm?
Let it be. I don't want to talk to you.
Yeah.
I can see that.
Since the last few days.
You don't even look at me anymore, huh?
Tell me.
Am I really that dirty, huh?
-What have I done? Tell me, huh? -Leave me.
Did I steal something?
Or have I slept with someone else, huh?
You really think…
you didn't do anything wrong?
And whatever she did,
was that right? She didn't do anything wrong?
Arrey, those people have money.
It was bloody our fault.
We shouldn't have gone there.
We went once, we went twice.
-But every day? -There was nothing wrong.
She knew everything about us.
She had no problem. She really knew everything.
That means she knew everything.
You knew everything.
What about me?
I didn't need to know anything?
She was there every day, but why?
You were enjoying it, na?
Hmm?
She came every day, was watching us.
And you liked it, right?
Hmm?
Tell me now.
You were enjoying it too.
Hmm?
Say something.
Go on.
What are you doing? The girls will see.
So?
Are you feeling shy?
[Seema moans]
[bike bell ringing]
[Isheeta] Didi, how much is this broccoli for?
Fifty rupees for 100 grams.
Give me half a kilo, please.
Broccoli is 400 rupees a kilo.
Give me half a kilo of bhindi and give me the fresh ones. These are not good.
Brinjal.
Give me this too.
-How are you doing? -Saayli's exam, how--
[both chuckle]
Are they over?
Exams are next month.
-But she doesn't study. -What?
She spends whole day on the phone with the boys tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki.
That's all she does.
This is the age for it, you know?
So… but, yeah.
How much is it?
[woman] Hundred rupees.
Did you find a new maid?
No.
Did you find a new job?
Yeah, I got two.
Oh.
Actually, you know, I thought about calling you a number of times.
I even tried to talk to you, you know?
Actually, I should've told you earlier only that I, um, used to…
watch you…
and your husband.
I knew it long ago.
Why didn't you ever tell me about it?
Because I used to enjoy it too, you know?
[woman] Here you go, tai.
It will be 200.
Okay.
[car horn blaring]
Okay, then.
-[Isheeta] Bye. -[soft chuckles]
Shall I…
come from tomorrow?
Hmm.

What's wrong now?
Senior has called for an emergency AGM.
What? How is this possible?
I'm the CEO. How can they just--
Well, they are doing it.
ED is up our ass, Vijay.
I kept telling you not to make a deal with the Malaysians, to keep away.
But you wouldn't listen, would you?
Bro, everything I've done till now, I did it for the company, okay?
Not for myself.
Clearly, Senior doesn't think so.
And after today's board meeting, maybe the board won't either.
Just get your ass back here.

I'll call you back later.
It's been so long. How much longer will you take?

Soon, soon, buddy. Okay, give the phone to Mama now.

What is this about an emergency AGM?
I don't know. Even I got a call an hour ago.
And you're going?
I am a member of the board, Vijay.
I have to go.
Why don't you just remind your father
that the company's successful only because of me?
It was nothing before that.
How dare he fucking doubt my intentions?
I don't know that. Why don't you ask him yourself?

You're getting a lot of calls.
Nisha, I will have to go back now.

-[in English] Bye. -Bye.
[Vijay] Excuse me?
Shanti, you're still alive?
It's me, Vijay.
Sorry. I think you must be confused.
Balls, confused. I'd recognize you anywhere.
You should leave right now.
You're making a mistake.
Mistake?
So what's your name then? Tell me.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
It's okay.
[tense music playing]
What happened?
Why are you behaving like this?
[man] What's going on here?
-Is this man bothering you? -Me? Why--
-Did I speak to you? -No.
No, right?
Good. So shut up.
Tell me, Shanti, is he bothering you?
-Yes. -Yes?
No, no. Yes, because I remembered something.
That kind of yes. Not yes that I'm bothering her.
Not that yes. They're both different yeses.
It's okay, Inder. I know this guy.
-He isn't bothering me. -See?
Sure?
-Hey, she told you, right? -Didn't I ask you to shut up?
Who are you? What's your name?
Uh, Vijay. Vijay Chauhan.
Vijay Chauhan?
Yes. My full name.
What are you doing in my town?
[scoffs] In your town?
My car broke down.
[sighs]
I'll leave now. See you in the evening.
And you, please get your car fixed quickly.
And get the hell out of here.
I don't wanna see you in the evening.
Oh, hello. You can't just talk to me like this.
It's for your own good.
Leave this place.
Look at how he's talking to me.
He's right. You should leave this place right now.
Okay. I will go.
But could first you explain to me where did you disappear ten years ago?
-[door slams] -Do you know I looked for you everywhere?
I was going crazy.
Suddenly, you just vanished.
It's been ten years now, Vijay.
And for those ten years, I had no idea where my wife was.
How she was. Dead or alive?
And you're here!
Listen.
You owe me an explanation.
Sorry.
Old habits.
I need to change my clothes.
Will you wait?
Yes.
-Do you have coffee? -Yes.
The kettle is there and coffee is up there.
And milk?
Since when do you take milk in your coffee?
Just checking whether you remember or not.
[soft instrumental music plays]
[Shanti] Vijay, can you shut the tap, please?
There's no water in here.
Don't you think this place is so much like our old place in Malad?
Only one tap at a time.
[tense music playing]
[water running in shower]
What the fuck?
[music intensifies]
-It's for you. -I don't drink coffee.
I know. It's tea with milk.
[soft instrumental music playing]
So tell me.
You really should leave. Otherwise, you'll get late.
I have a meeting, but it can wait.
Vijay Chauhan late for a meeting?
You were never late for anything.
Well, there is always a first time.
Now tell me.
[ominous music playing]
Uh, well, I don't remember it completely.
I was on my way back from the nursing home when a man came up to me
and he was looking for the nursing home.
In the car, his pregnant wife was in labor
and she was screaming in pain.
So I went to help her and then…
Then?
I don't remember what happened after that.
I only remember waking up here in Paraisol.
So why didn't you come back home then?
You didn't even bother to call me once.
I was scared.
Why?
I was scared that someone is trying to kill me.
Someone wants to kill you?
Why would anybody want to kill you?
I don't know, but I was really scared that day.
And I thought that I would give you a call,
but I didn't have the guts.
Listen, nobody wants to kill you.
How could you even think like that?
Nursing home?
You just said you were coming back from the nursing home.
Why did you go there in the first place?
Were you pregnant?
I'm sorry.
I wanted to give you a surprise.
We were gonna have a baby?
I lost our baby.
It's all my fault.
Why did I ever go to that car?
-It's okay. -I should have told you.
-It's okay. -[Shanti] It would have all been…
[soft instrumental music playing]
No, no, no. We can't do this.
This is wrong.
What's wrong? You're my wife, for God's sake.
So you didn't get married again?
To whom?
Anita.
Anita?
Anu?
[scoffs] Our Anu?
Wow. So you got married to Anu?
[Vijay] Everything happened so fast.
After I lost you, I was a mess.
And she was there for me.
Kids?
Two. Boys. Eight and five.
So sweet.
I still remember when you and Anu had joined that company together.
What was that term?
Graduate management trainees.
The first time that Anu had come home…
I thought she was the prettiest girl in the world.
Is it…
jealousy?
At first, I was,
but I was sure that you were only mine
and I had a marriage certificate to prove it too.
You're right.
I have always been only yours.
Nice tea.
And I still am.
Well, I can see you've changed a lot.
What happened to Anu's fiancé?
The one who was gonna take over the company after their wedding?
Uh… no idea.
I only met him a couple of times.
One of those times we met him together. Remember?
Then who's running the company now?
Oh, hello.
He's standing right in front of you.
I'm so proud of you.
You've been wanting this since you were in college.
And now look, you got it.
But it wouldn't have been possible without you.
You've made so many sacrifices.
-Took care of the house so that I could-- -No.
Taking care of the house was my choice.
It made me happy.
Whatever I am today, it's because of you.
Thank you.
Mmm, Vijay!
You just haven't changed at all.
Jump at the first chance you get.
How does Anu keep up with you?
Very happily.
[Shanti] You should leave now.
You're getting really late.
Yeah, I am getting late.
Listen, you are coming back with me.
Why? No.
Why not?
Do you know how happy Anu will be when she sees you?
[tense music playing]
She won't be.
Why?
You still haven't realized it, Vijay?
It was Anu.
What was Anu?
She was the one who hired those people.
The couple.
The one I met outside the nursing home.
The one that had tried to kill me.
What the hell are you saying?
Are you out of your mind?
Anu has loved you for a long time.
No. No, Shanti.
The three of us were the best of friends, man.
The three fucking musketeers.
Anu always wanted you for herself.
She always tried to keep you distracted from me.
And the day that she found out I was pregnant, she tried to--
Wh-- wha-- One minute.
How did Anu find out that you were pregnant, huh?
She never said anything to me about it.
What would she have said anyway?
Do you remember that evening when we had that party at home
and we were singing "Jab Koi Baat Bigad Jaye" together?
No, but go on.
I had taken the test that evening,
and by mistake, I left the test kit in the washroom.
I didn't want anyone to know about it, so I went right back to get it.
And I saw that Anu was leaving the washroom.
-[Vijay] So? -[Shanti] So, Vijay,
I had kept the test kit facing upwards,
and when I went back it was facing downwards,
which means that Anu saw it and kept it back the wrong way by mistake.
Yeah. So, even if she did see…
Fuck.
Actually, after you were gone,
Anu didn't even let me out of her sight for a second.
I thought she was genuinely concerned, but…
It costs a lot of money to do something like this.
And Anu had a lot of money.
-We need to do something about this. -No, we don't.
Sorry?
You're happy, right, Vijay?
With Anu and your lovely kids?
Yes.
Then that's it.
Just go back to your home, back to your family.
You still have time.
-So please go away from here. -And just forget about this?
Everything that you've just told me?
You'll have to try.
Or else your life will become hell.
Listen to what I'm saying.
Please go away from here.
I know it was a long time ago,
but do you remember what that couple looked like?
Yes.
Seriously, even now?
Like it was yesterday.
Super.
If we can find them, then we can find out what happened.
We will find the truth.
[scoffs] And what will you do with the truth?
And what if Anu really was behind all this?
Then she will have to be punished.
And then?
Then maybe…
we can be together again.
I missed you so much.
No, no, we can't.
Will you please leave from here?
-You have a wife now. -Because of whom, I lost you.
[Shanti] We can't do this.
Please go away.
Listen, I'm with Inder now.
[dramatic music playing]
You were always like this or what?
Will you focus first?
[music continues]
[both gasp]
[both panting]
[grunts]
[grunting]
Vijay, careful. Be careful.
[Vijay groans]
[groans]
[soft instrumental music playing]
-Vijay, did you just-- -Sorry. I couldn't help myself.
Last time that you couldn't help yourself,
you remember I got pregnant?
And then I ended up here.
Don't worry, you won't get pregnant.
How do you know that?
I just know it.
And if you want to be sure, then try your Red Blue again.
You'll find out yourself.
Same old Vijay.
-"I know everything." -[chuckles]
Correct.
Red Blue?
How do you know that?
What Red Blue?
[Shanti] The test kit.
The one that Anu saw,
it's called Red Blue.
It's not available anywhere in India.
My friend from Canada bought it for me.
I hadn't told anyone about it.
Then how do you know?
You only must have told me.
No, I did not tell you.
Did Anu tell you?
No, Anu didn't tell me.
That means it was you.
That was you--
-[muffled] Vijay! Vijay! -[ominous music playing]
[Shanti] Vijay! Mm! Vijay!
I paid those fuckers so much money!
Even then, they didn't do their job properly!
And on top of that, you remember their faces too.
Thank you for not coming back and staying the fuck away.
'Cause whatever I am today is because of you.
You did sacrifice a lot for me. Just do this one.
One more thing. Please.

This is a king's palace,
not your whorehouse that can be made into a hotel.
I said it once, I won't repeat myself.
Go.
[tense music playing]
-Go! -[whimpers]
[thunder rumbles]
[in Hindi] Bitch.
[groans]
[ominous music playing]
[in English] Arrey, Bitari?
Panaam, Mehersa.
Oh, you are not Bitari.
Are you new here?
Yes, I am, Mehersa.
Go get a towel for me.
-Towel? -Mm-hmm.
One, two, and that's my piece to the finish.
Yeah.
-Baba? -[Mehersa] Huh?
I want to go England for further studies.
Why? What's wrong here?
College is better there.
And now, we have got the tender as well.
So, Ma and I can go there for a few years.
Panaam, Mehersa.
Rani Saheba has sent some tea for you.
Listen…
What's your name?
Jee, Rekha.
Wrap it up.
[water splashes]
No black clothes, black shoes, black shirt, avoid wearing anything black.
You know what? Right now, your stars are waiting to attack you.
Need to avert them.
This is usually done at a place in Ujjain.
But can get it done for 1,100 rupees.
Don't worry.
[Yuvraj] And?
First thing every morning, feed roti to a dog,
vegetables to a crow, and sugar to five ants.
-Can I feed black ants? -[Pandit] Absolutely not.
In case of going to England,
red and black are the difference between heaven and earth.
What I don't get is what will you do in England?
They don't see the sun for three months.
I wonder who they offer water to then.
[chants]
I will get rich one day.
How rich do you want to be, man? Huh?
More than your father? Huh?
Bhanu says his blood is white, that's why he's like this.
It's not your father's fault.
Rahu.
Rahu is setting foot in his chart.
This can be fixed in Banaras,
but we can get it done here itself.
Less than 2,100.
Your Shukra is angry too.
As long as you live in this haveli, no England for you.
So how do I calm down Shukra?
[Pandit] Havan needs to be done.
But for now, smoke this.
Hey!
[Chanda] Rekha?
[Rekha] I'm coming, Rani Sa.
I'll finish washing the clothes.
[Chanda] Okay. Just come here after that.
[water splashing]
[dramatic music playing]
[crow cawing]
Can you iron this kurta? I have a meeting.
Who is this new girl?
The old one was doing fine. Why did you fire her?
I didn't fire her. She ran away.
What? We were paying her, right?
What was the problem?
We were paying her only to work in the kitchen.
Not in the bedroom.
[gasps]
Mind how you talk to me, okay?
Or else I'll send you back where you came from.
-And again. -[gasps]
Stop filling Yuvraj's head with this England crap.
He is a raja's son.
And a raja doesn't work for anyone.
How beautiful are these sarees, Rani Sa?
They must look lovely on you, Rani Sa.
Then take one.
Oh, no, no, Rani Sa, they won't look good on a girl like me.
Okay, then don't take.
Shall I take this one, Rani Sa? This color looks good on me.
Wear it.
[Rekha] Rani Sa.
[laughs]
[upbeat instrumental music playing]
[music fades]
[Mehersa, in Hindi] Sons of bitches.
[in English] Leave me! Asshole!
You dare talk back to me, madarchod?
Your mother used to be a cow dung collector, madarchod!
[in Hindi] You swine.
[grumbling indistinctly]
[in English] Are you asleep?
[light switch flicks]
It's not working again.
Fuck!
Nothing ever works in this house.
Bloody hell!
[in Hindi] Fucking… [grunts]
[door opens]
[humming]
Mehersa?
[in English] He's alive.
[in Hindi] Master?
Mehersa?
[in English] Drunkard.
[door shuts]
[Chanda] Rekha!
Yeah, Rani Sa. Coming!
[dramatic music playing]
[Mehersa groaning]
Hey, choree, you are very good at massage.
Hmm? Where did you learn from?
I didn't learn it, hukum.
When I was a kid, you know, I used to massage my father's legs.
I see.
You were bright from your childhood. Hmm?
[Rekha] When I was kid, everyone used to say,
"This girl will make the whole village proud."
A little higher.
May I ask something, hukum?
Is this palace more than a hundred years old?
-Such beautiful flowers drawn on the wall. -A little more.
Oh. I never imagined in my life that one day I'll get a chance
-to live in a palace this big. -A little more.
May I ask something, hukum?
Are Rani Sa and young Mehersa going abroad?
If they leave from here, the palace will feel so empty,
but I hear it's very beautiful abroad, huh?
-They even have got-- -Go.
Get lost now.
Hukum, but-- I'm sorry, hukum.
I'm a fool. I don't think before speaking.
I'm sorry.
Stop gossiping now.
And pay attention here.
Don't you want to live here?
Huh?
Do you drink?
[ominous music playing]
Hmm? [laughs]
Take it. Take it.
Take it.
Look here and drink in front of me.
-[coughs] -[laughs]
What did you do? [chuckles]
That will spoil your saree, huh?
[chuckles] It's not a problem, I'll wash it.
Will you do something?
Take it off.
-[chuckles] -Take it off, take it off. Take it off.
Come on.
Very good.
-[Yuvraj] Baba? -[music ends abruptly]
Someone has come to meet you.
These fuckers won't leave me alone.
[birds chirping]
I will study very hard.
We will go to England.
We can't stay here.
Just wanted to say that.
[soft instrumental music playing]
All of them are bastards.
I paid such a heavy bribe and it's all gone.
[in Hindi] All a waste, rascals!
Chanda, that bitch.
[in English] And my son too wants to leave me and go.
The pandit had told me that I will die alone. [laughs]
Run away, bastards.
All of you can fuck off! [laughs]
[door opens]
[Rekha giggling]
[Rekha moaning]
[moaning continues]
[dramatic music playing]
[triumphant music playing]
[music intensifies]
[brothel keeper] It's actually good that you left this place.
Just yesterday, I found out that one of our girls has got the disease.
I don't know which horrible fucker gave this to her.
Her life is over. So young.
[Chanda] What is her name?
[brothel keeper] Rekha.
[Rekha moaning]
[Mehersa grunting]
[music stops abruptly]
[Rekha moaning]
[dramatic music playing]
[Rekha moaning]
[theme music playing]
