Hello.

CD..

Yes, tell me. - Shivalkar here.

It's time for the meeting.

How long will you take to come here?

Sorry, I won't be able to make it..

..for senior citizen committee meeting today.

Why?

I've to attend a housewarming ceremony.

It's my youngest daughter-in-law's brother's housewarming ceremony.

I must go. They've given personal invitation..

..and insisted on my presence.

But will you.. - Besides..

At this age, no one values our presence.

So, those few who really do..

..we should respect their emotions.

But how can you?

Okay, bye. I am in a hurry.

Hey, how do I look today?

I asked you something.

You won't like me speaking the truth.

And speaking a lie is against my principle.

Come on, hurry up.

What?!

Hurry up. Dad is ready.

Why is he coming?

What do you mean?

I don't like to repeat things, okay?

Why do you live in the past?

He was against our marriage, right?

He didn't even attend our marriage.

You started again.

You're too complicated.

Have you ever given an honest opinion to me?

Yes, I have. That's why you married me.

What does that mean?

I mean, when I came to see you for the first time..

..I honestly gave my consent.

That's why you married me.

Right?

That was your big favour on me.

I think that was the first and the last honest opinion.

Otherwise you will always complicate things.

Okay, I agree.

Still, we are happily married since the past 20 years. Right?

Yes.

And this flower that has blossomed in our garden?

This flower.... It has turned into a cabbage now.

Look at his hair.

He didn't even talk to me for many days after our marriage.

Only for a month.

Then he forgot everything.

Now, he's behaving normally, right?

Listen, it happens at this age.

He is aged, not me.

Once again I repeat.

I don't want father to attend any function at my maternal house.

I've already spoken with brother-in-law and sister-in-law.

I hope this make up looks good. - Yes, of course.

I was not ready to apply but..

It shouldn't look gaudy. But..

What's this?

Where are you off to?

What question is this?

We've to go to the housewarming ceremony, right?

Yes, but the fabrication guy will be coming today.

To repair the window of your room.

I had called him up.

And he said he can come only today.

So I told him to come right away.

Because you were at home.

Is grandpa not coming with us?

No, my dear.

Our car is very small.

Five people can hardly fit in it.

I am telling him to buy a bigger car but..

I understood.

You've mastered in diverting any topic on me.

And then you start taunting.

Forget about the taunting.

But it's difficult to divert a topic than to divert a car.

Meaning? - I mean..

No, nothing.

Before he starts his logic and confuses all of us..

..let's just leave.

Come on. Let's go. - Yes.

Come. - Yes.

Let's go. Put on your shoes.

There they come. - Welcome.

How are you?!

Congratulations! - Thank you.

Constructing such a huge house in Pune..

..is a big achievement in itself. - Absolutely.

Yes, because her father..

..immediately transferred his old house in his son's name.

Really? - Yes.

And he immediately redeveloped that old house..

..to construct this bungalow.

That's more important.

Good decision. - Thank you.

He has spent a lot after this house. - That's right.

And my dad also gave away his provident fund money..

..to brother.

All of it? - Yes, of course.

I mean, you.. - That's good.

In short, without elders' backing..

..young members of the family can never grow in life.

Yes. - That's true.

You must consider this.

Yes, sir. Tell me.

What do I say? You were supposed to come..

..and repair the window today.

This is Chandrakant Deshpande.

Sir, I had already informed your daughter-in-law..

..that I won't be able to come today.

Is that so?

Yes.

But she said you are going to come today.

I think there's some confusion, sir.

I had told her very clearly that I won't be coming today.

Hello!

Hello! Hello!

Hello! Hello!

Hello! Hello!

Hello!

O God!

So tired..

The program was successful.

Isn't it? - Yes.

I will tell brother. - Sure.

Come.

Radha

Yes.

Before going to the housewarming ceremony..

..you said the fabricator is coming..

..to repair my room's window.

Yes.

Did he not come?

No, he didn't.

Because he wasn't supposed to come.

I called him up and he said..

..that he is not coming today.

And he had clearly told you about it.

Is it?

Maybe, due to so much of running around..

..I couldn't remember if he's coming today or some other day.

Quite possible.

But when somebody repeatedly insisted to attend the function..

It's okay, dad. It's okay.

People do insist us to attend their functions.

That doesn't mean we would actually attend all the functions.

You're too much.

Come on, let's change now.

And, dad.

Even if you had come, there was no place in the car.

Shravani has also grown up now.

What?

Last week all of us had gone to Thevur on pilgrimage.

All of us had gone together. I was also there in the car.

Have the children grown so much in just one week..

..that grandpa has no place in the car now?

When did you come, Sunny?

Half an hour ago.

Let's go.

You've to go to the office tomorrow morning.

Yes.

We can't afford to neglect our routine.

Let's go.

I..

I will lock the door.

That's true.

No one can compromise in their routine.

Today's routine was incomplete without this insult.

Now, it's completed.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Welcome.

Good morning. - Good morning.

Instead of doing up and down, why don't you use the lift?

But no.

Once if your leg slips or gets stuck..

..you will break your bones.

Have you seen Hyderabad's museum?

Wow! Today Deshpande talked about Hyderabad.

That's true.

Otherwise, he'd daily talk about..

..his father's transfer to Allahabad as a teacher..

..and his first prize in painting in that school.

Hello!

Are you exercising?

Yes, tell me.

Is there anything urgent?

No, nothing as such.

But it's definitely interesting.

Gargi, listen.

I will go home and get fresh. Then I will call you up. Okay.

You may call me up.

But I may not have time to receive your call.

What do you mean?

That's why I called you up.

I've got a new assignment. - Okay.

It's not confirmed.

But today we've a meeting at 11 am.

If everything finalizes in this meeting..

..then I will be busy for the next one month or so.

That's good! It seems exciting.

Oh baby!

I had told you.

What's going on here?

Hey.. - Hey..

Hey..

What's going on in this public place?

What do you mean?

Are we doing anything wrong?

Look at him. - He's arguing.

Is there any ban on holding hands?

But look at the way you're holding her hand.

Exactly. - Aren't you ashamed?

Hey. - Of doing such obscene in the public park.

This shows their culture.

No shame at all. - Yes.

Hello, your days of youth are over long back.

Now that you can't do anything..

..do you expect others to abstain?

First of all, you just leave this place.

And go home.

Take your medicines and sleep tight.

Patriarchs

Hey, mind your language.

They live on bonus years.

And teaching us the manners. - They won't reform.

What's this? - Hey.

I was a teacher.

I've reformed many insolents.

Hey, go home.

Okay, fine. Instead of listening to half the story..

Gargi, wait a minute. I will call you later.

There's some fuss over here in the garden.

Bye, I will call you later. Bye.

Okay, bye.

Don't act smart. I won't consider your age.

I will straightaway raise my hand. - Hey.. Hey..

What do you think you are? - Leave me. Leave me I say.

Leave me.

Why do you fight with me for these old men?

You know what the problem is?

The one standing in front of you is my grandpa.

My real grandpa.

Whatever you said to him till now, I pardon you for that.

But if you utter a word against him anymore..

..I will beat you blue, such that you won't be recognised.

Understood?

And let me clear one more thing. I'm a lawyer.

You will be sent behind bars for a decade or more.

You won't get any private or government job.

Moreover you will lose your girlfriend.

Understood? Now, get lost.

Grandpa. You please sit.

You all can go. I will wait for some time.

Okay. - I will come with him.

Okay. - Okay.

Sawant, let's go. - Let's go.

He came on time.

Otherwise, we were in trouble.

What's the matter, grandpa?

Are you not feeling well?

Shall I bring my bike?

Shall I call a rickshaw?

The best is to call an ambulance. And take you to the hospital directly..

It's nothing like that.

Nothing serious.

It's nothing like that.

But that boy's statements are echoing in my mind.

I just can't forget it.

Don't pay attention to him, grandpa.

He was unmannerly.

What did he say you know?

These patriarchs are living bonus life.

Please don't think over it much.

However he was.

A loafer, insolent or stupid.

He may be anything.

He wasn't wrong at all. It was absolutely correct.

Let me tell you one simple thing.

Recently...

I had gone to a clinic..

..to enquire about some medical centre.

It was a private clinic.

Hello. - Hello.

I wanted some information about senior citizen medical help centre.

Time is over now.

No, it's not.

Lunch time is from 1.30 PM as it is shown here.

And there's still 10 minutes to go.

Not all work is done as per the schedule.

Timings are just printed as a part of the rule.

Our duty time is from 10 AM.

But we start working from 9:30 AM.

So, now please let me take my lunch.

It's wrong. Yesterday also I had come here.

And waited till 11:30 AM.

But no one was at the counter.

I see. You mean I am speaking a lie.

No, I didn't mean that.

Please come after an hour.

Let me enjoy my lunch for now.

Wonder why he needs so much information..

..about the medical help and schemes.

Exactly. - He has lived enough.

He just came to enquire for passing time.

Come, let's eat.

Yes.

This is how it is.

Which clinic was it?

I'd have given them a fitting reply.

I remember I had read a sentence somewhere.

That being aged..

..mocks humans very cruelly.

Grandpa.

Please, don't speak like this.

Okay.

I am alright. You go.

You go to your gym.

Are you sure I should go?

Hope you're fine. - Yeah, I am alright.

Okay. - I am alright.

And you didn't like it so you shouted at them.

Yes.

Dad, why should you interfere in other's lives?

What if the matter had gone out of control?

And what if you were harmed?

Ultimately who would have been troubled?

Your family, that is us.

Now, stop teaching everyone everywhere.

Many years have passed since your retirement.

Who will take the classes of interfering in lives after the retirement?

Brother. - Yes.

Are you busy?

No, I'm just playing with the laptop.

Just take your leg aside.

Can't you reply properly?

Can't you ask properly?

Can't you see I am doing something important?

Keep that aside.

Listen to me first.

Ok, tell me

I think grandpa is ill-treated in this house.

What do you mean?

It's not that big.

But he has been troubled with small things.

I fail to understand what you say. Please be clear.

Day before yesterday, my uncle had..

..called for housewarming ceremony. Right?

He was ready to go but nobody took him along.

And several times he told mom to bring honey for him.

But she hasn't brought it as yet.

Day before yesterday when I went out with grandpa..

Hey.

Why did you hit me?

Don't you think you're suddenly talking like an aunt?

Have you grown up?

Even I notice these things.

But we are still very young in these matters so we can't object.

Exactly.

You know how our family members are.

So, will this continue forever?

Even I'm thinking about this since the past few days.

We will plan something.

You don't worry. I am there.

Yes. - Now, go.

But do something concrete. - Sure, I will.

Before marriage.

During the marriage.

And even, after the marriage.

We always used to take pledges..

..to be with each other forever.

One day you suddenly left everything and..

How does the other person live for the rest of his life?

Happiness and sorrows.

I equally experienced both in my life.

But now..

I am getting scared of loneliness.

Anyway, you are not unaware of the things around.

Now, I am tired, Varsha.

I've only one prayer now.

Like He united us on this earth..

..He should make sure we unite in heaven also.

I am waiting for his call now. So that I can meet you.

I can't tolerate.

No, they just made us stand with the board.

They didn't do anything else.

Yes, it was just pastime. That's it.

Thank you.

Sir, you gave the bill for just one cup of coffee.

In fact, we had ordered two cups of it.

How can I charge you?

I will take the bill for only one cup of coffee.

Hey.. - Just a minute.

Madam, can you please click my photo with her?

Okay.

Take a video, please.

Video? - Yes.

But why?

Gargi has done wonders.

She used to come to our canteen daily.

Give an order.

Speak very little and leave.

Gargi is great. Great, Gargi. You're great.

I feel proud that I know Gargi.

Great, Gargi.

Gargi is great.

Hello, madam.

Give me. I will park your bike. - It's okay.

No, please. I will park it.

Give it to me. - I will do it.

Madam, you're doing such a big job.

Let us contribute a little.

Please give it, madam.

Thank you.

Hello. Have you seen the videos?

Yes, I saw the videos. But I didn't understand anything.

That canteen man and that man in the parking lot.

What's the matter actually?

I had told you about marathon meetings. Right?

It's successful now.

What is it about?

Amit sir.. - Who's this Amit sir?

Are you mad?

You asked me who's Amit sir.

Yes.

Amit sir.. I mean Amitabh Bachchan.

What about him?

I will have to tell you in detail.

Listen.

Amit sir studied in a school in Allahabad.

Yes.

One of his teachers from class fourth to seventh..

..known as Sharma sir is completing..

..100 years in the near future.

Amit sir has come forward for the celebration of his teacher's birthday..

..and he has announced a program.

Which will be attended by all his batch mates.

Okay.

I've got the responsibility to cover this entire function.

Okay. That's great.

And you know what? Please excuse me. Hi, dad.

At least keep your mobile away while eating.

Hey..

I am not eating. - It's not for you.

You know what?

Today, my sir and I had a meeting with Amit sir.

Wow! Is it? - Yes.

And you know what?

I've not updated my social media status on any platform.

But all those who got to know about this..

..their entire viewpoint has changed towards me.

That man in the parking and all the others.

Naturally, Amitabh is a celebrity.

Okay, bye for now.

I'm very tired. And I have lots of pending things.

Okay. - Bye.

Okay, bye.

Mom. - Yes.

I'm urgently going to Mumbai. - Mumbai?!

But.. - I will tell you about it once I return.

But have some milk. - No. I will take it on the way. Bye.

Listen. - I am in a hurry.

I will tell you after I return.

Bye.

Sunny. - Tell grandpa I'll be back soon.

Bye.

Hello, Gargi.

I'm on the way. Yes, coming.

Sorry. I'm extremely sorry. - Where were you?

I've sent you so many messages.

There's huge traffic. I am sorry.

Why didn't you order anything?

I was waiting for you, actually. So..

Excuse me.

Two cups of Latte.

Sorry. I am in a hurry. - It's okay.

So let's directly come to the point. - Yes.

What? Who are you gossiping about?

Who is on the target today?

Yes, that's true.

Oh my God! My best friend.

Shravni, bring some chips.

Yes, sure. - All of you, take these fritters.

Take it. - Yes. Take it, all of you.

Hi, Shravni, how are you? - Hello. I am good.

Shravni, please take care of the tea.

Yes.

By the way..

Haven't you all noticed any changes in the house?

Curtains?

Curtains are changed.

Oh my God! What an observation!

Jewelers eyes.

Absolutely. Did you like it?

Very nice. - Unique.

You know what?

Much better than before. - Yeah. I know.

The wall colours and curtains were not matching.

That's why I changed it.

But it's good. - You did the right thing.

Please, enjoy the fritters.

Take a selfie.

Radha! - Yes.

Where are my paintings?

I've removed them.

What do you mean?

They were a mismatch with the wall paint and curtains.

So, I've removed it.

Radha.

Those paintings were on these walls..

..before you got married in this family.

I know the history about those paintings, dad.

History may not be there.

But there were emotions attached with the paintings.

And I am still attached to it.

On our 35th wedding anniversary..

..your mother-in-law had selected..

..few paintings of her choice from my creations and..

..decorated these walls with it.

Dad, I haven't thrown away those paintings.

They are in your room.

Serve tea to all.

Actually, we should throw away all the old things.

Take your tea. You, too.

And you.. Oh yes, you will need coffee.

Shravni.

Yes.

Sit here. On the swing. Sit down.

Your humming was really sweet.

You've got a sweet voice.

You're also a good poet.

Sing.. sing something.

Come on.

Sing.

"May we always stand by each other."

"May we always stand by each other."

"Like a heart lending a moral support to the other heart."

"Like a heart lending a moral support to the other heart."

"May we always stand by each other."

"Sunrays emerging out of the fog appears.."

"Sunrays emerging out of the fog appears.."

"..like the sky embracing the earth."

"Seasons should instill such fragrance in the flowers."

"Like a heart lending a moral support to the other heart.."

"Like a heart lending a moral support.."

"Colours must blend in each other in a way.."

"Colours must blend in each other in a way.."

"That only the kinship prevails over the self-conceit."

"Like the footsteps that are fond of shadows.."

"Like the footsteps that are fond of shadows.."

"Like a heart lending a moral support to the other heart."

"Like a heart lending a moral support to the other heart."

"Like a heart lending a moral support.."

"May we always stand by each other."

Check who's at the door.

You fill the form.

And tell me where I should sign.

Chandrakant Deshpande. - Yes.

Courier for him.

Grandpa, your courier.

Courier for me?

You don't expect any courier in your name?

It's not that. - So?

We are from the generation that depended on..

..post, parcel and register services.

Courier was never on our list. That's why.

What's it?

But this is in your name, grandpa.

The address is also correct.

Who has sent it?

What's it?

Grandpa has received a courier. - I see.

What's this?! - From Amitabh Bachchan!

Huh?! - Yes.

What?!

Dad received a courier from Amitabh Bachchan?

Yes.

Quite strange!

Who's this Amitabh Bachchan now?

Wait a minute, aunt.

Grandpa, shall I open it?

Read it out.

I am also equally excited now. Please read.

Yes.

Dear Mr. Chandu.

Hello from Amitabh Bachchan.

Hello from Amitabh Bachchan to dad?!

That's what is written here.

I hope you remember we studied together..

..in Allahabad Boys High School.

Sharma sir was one of our teachers.

This year, Sharma sir will be completing 100 years.

I've thought of honouring him on this occasion..

..by all the past students of our batch.

I'm announcing a program in this regard.

I will write to you again once the date and time is finalized.

Don't forget to send me your e-mail ID.

I hope you and our other batch mates..

..will once again come together..

..in our school at Allahabad.

And refresh old memories.

Thank you.

Your friend Amitabh Bachchan.

Oh my God!

Dad!

You never told us that Amitabh Bachchan was your classmate.

Exactly.

How could I have told you?

I've also come to know about this now.

Do you remember anything of that time?

I don't remember at all.

I can understand it's difficult to remember.

You're nearly 65 now.

He's 75 years old.

Yes.

He didn't go to school soon after birth.

We don't even remember our school time friends.

How will he recollect any? - Yes, that's right.

How will dad remember anything now?

I agree, but he has clearly mentioned in the letter.

Allahabad, Sharma sir. And school and all that.

It must be true. - Aunt, the letter is genuine.

What are you saying?

This is too much.

Grandpa.

I don't remember anything.

Nothing at all.

Dad, you may not recollect all of it.

But little..

Try to go back in your memory. You might recollect something.

Go back in memory?

Dad, can you recollect Sharma sir at least?

Yes.

I can't recollect anything.

He's too much. - He doesn't even remember Sharma sir.

Hello!

Gargi, the courier boy had come.

Oh, good!

He came little late.

I was so tense, you know.

But now I am relaxed.

Yes.

By the way, Gargi.

Thanks a lot.

No need.

I know you've a busy schedule.

You have workload. Moreover, this favour..

Still, you're doing all this.

Come on, Gargi.

You must do this much for a friend, isn't it?

Any problem at home?

Did anybody get a hint? - No.

Listen, Gargi.

Hello.

I will call you later. Bye. - What happened?

Bye. - Hello!

You silly girl.

Should you overhear somebody's conversation?

Who was on call?

It was a call from Amitabh's office.

To check if we've received the courier or not.

Should I not update them?

I see. - Yes.

But why should you talk to them secretly at this place?

I think even in Amitabh's office there's Gargi.

It's not that. Listen to me carefully.

Listen.. - Just a minute.

First of all, I am not small anymore.

Just one sting from me.

And you will be exposed.

Listen, I was going to tell you this.

But I was wondering how you will take it and react..

I understand everything. Okay?

Now tell me the truth.

Otherwise, I will call everybody.

Wait, I will call them.. Mom. - Hey.

Are you mad?

I will tell you everything.

I don't know how much you will understand from this.

But listen.

I understood your grandpa's problem.

But how can I help you in this?

Last night we talked over the phone.

And what did you say?

That you were just introduced with Amitabh Bachchan.

And people's behaviour with you changed entirely.

Your prestige increased all of a sudden. Correct?

Absolutely.

I want to use the same gimmick.

Now, listen to me carefully.

Last night what did you tell me on phone?

That it's Sharma sir's 100th birthday.

And Amit sir has invited all the past students.

I mean his classmates.

Coincidence is like this.

My grandpa has also studied from Allahabad.

And he's of the same age group.

Just a minute. - Yes.

Please come to the point.

All I want is that..

..Amit Sir should send an invitation..

..of this program to my grandpa. That's it.

Have you lost it?

Of course, a duplicate invitation.

But I want the matter of the letter to be like this.

That Amitabh Bachchan and Chandrakant Deshpande..

..were classmates from class 4 to class 7.

Just imagine.

They both were classmates.

If this news spread in our area..

..everybody in our area will become crazy.

People's viewpoint about my grandpa will change.

Are you mad?

Why did you come to Mumbai for such a small thing?

Thank you.

You could have done this being in Pune itself.

It's not that.

When you're lying about something, it must be be flawless.

Me doing this on my own.

And a professional doing it for me.

There will be a huge difference. - I agree.

Things will be done professionally.

Yes.

So, listen. The design, CorelDraw.

Photoshop. And most importantly, Amit sir's sign.

Are you mad?

Forget about the signature.

What if this lead to a problem?

Listen, Sanya.

From experience point of view, this job is very important for me.

Come on, baby. Don't worry.

That letter will reach my home.

There will be chaos in the house.

At the same time, grandpa's health.

Who will accompany him to Allahabad.

These questions will rise on the floor.

Immediately, I will write a letter on a dummy address.

Thank you for the invitation.

And sorry but I am unable to attend the function. Topic is closed.

Now, what's your opinion?

Yes.

If the topic closes on this point..

..then it's good. - Yes.

Understood? Is it clear now?

Now continue with your studies or else you will fail.

Shut up. Don't teach me.

Yuck. Why don't you shave?

Why do you touch it? Idiot.

Dad.

Dad. - Yes.

It's nothing.

We are ready for breakfast.

Waiting for you.

Beaten rice dish is cooked.

It won't taste good if it turns cold.

Are you coming?

Yes.

I'm still surprised.

You don't worry.

Grandpa is here. - Sit here.

Come. Sit, grandpa.

I don't want to have breakfast. Only tea.

Grandpa.

Last night I kept thinking about that letter.

A letter from Amitabh Bachchan..

..to Chandrakant Deshpande.

And that too..

..an invitation with insistence to be present at the function.

Yes. And do you think..

..we slept tight..

..after we received that letter?

Our condition was no different than yours.

We had lost our sleep.

Only the letter was reflecting in our mind.

Exactly.

This is what I want to say.

You all are so excited.

But how can you say that the letter is genuine?

Come on, it's signed by Amitabh.

Have you seen his sign before?

Grandpa can't even remember if he was his classmate.

How will he recognize his handwriting?

You mean..

..you doubt that the letter is not genuine.

That it's not signed by Amitabh.

No, I don't want to say that directly.

I just want to say..

..that we happen to read the news in recent times about senior citizens getting cheated.

We even get Whats app messages regarding the same.

If we receive one more letter..

..with a matter..

..asking to send Rs.25000 airfare to Allahabad.

What will you do?

So what do we do according to you?

Should we go to Amitabh's house..

..and ask for his notebooks..

..of class 4 to verify his handwriting?

Don't worry, grandpa. I am there.

Internet can be a great help.

I will do extensive surfing on the internet.

And get to the root of this matter.

Okay? Don't worry.

See you, bye.

Brother, what's this new drama now?

What drama?

Don't ask me.

You had sent the letter. Right?

Yes. - And now you're questioning its authenticity.

Of course, we should. Speak softly first of all.

Shravni, that's why I call you stupid.

Shut up.

But why do you do all this?

Our family should be fully convinced that it's true.

Are you getting it?

Listen. - You're right.

Your mom or mine.

Both are free the whole day.

Someday they will use their brains..

For that matter, even our fathers.

They will doubt in some or the other way.

Right. - So, before they doubt..

..we should raise a doubt and solve it later.

So there's no tension.

Most important.

Our plan is fake, right? - Yes.

So we must take good care.

Right.

Are you getting it? - Yes.

Okay? Done?

Thanks.

I didn't know..

..you've got brains. - What do you think?

After all, you're my brother.

Okay, go. Stupid.

Sunny. - Yes.

Breakfast is served. - Coming.

Only one. - Okay.

Enough.

Grandpa.

I surfed the entire night and found one poem.

I had to surf a lot for this. See this.

This is Harivanshrai Bachchan's poem..

..written in Amitabh's handwriting.

The letter that we've received yesterday.

We just need to compare..

..this handwriting with that of the letter.

We will consult an expert for this.

I agree I am not painting from the past many years.

But I am still a painter.

I know.

I mean I can still compare the curves of the handwriting.

I can check the handwritings.

Sorry. This is your subject.

I am sorry.

Will you do me a favour, Shravni?

Will you please bring..

..my eyeglass?

Yes.

Bring it fast.

Dad, sandwich.

Did you bring it?

Yes. - Okay.

Hmm.

From the first appearance..

..it seems these handwritings are of the same person.

Really? Yes.

Yes. - Yes.

Let me see. - Let me see.

Take this.

Are the handwritings same?

Yes.

Just a minute. Let me start.

Watch TV.

Hello, Shani. How are you?

Say hello to your family members.

And my salutations to Mr. Chandrakant Deshpande.

Why double salutations to Mr. Chandrakant?

Because, he's a great personality.

He was Amitabh Bachchan's classmate.

It's nothing less than a big achievement.

These are the answers to your questions.

This is Allahabad station you can see behind me.

And this is the street called P.D. Tandon lane.

It takes you to Amitabh Bachchan's school.

Come, I will show you.

Here, we've reached.

Yes.

Amitabh Bachchan..

..and Mr. Chandrakant studied together in this school.

Boys high school and college.

Now, let's go inside the school. Come.

This is the tamarind tree.

Amitabh and Mr. Chandrakant studied together below this tree.

Now we've reached inside his classroom.

You can see it's very wide.

Oh my God!

So this is the school register. It has Mr. Amitabh Bachchan's name.

I've spent five hours in a day..

..and done the best job of my life.

Do call me up again if the need arises.

Your friend Sanjay Shukla.

Did you see this?

Did you see this? - But..

What was this? - Exactly.

He had a doubt.

If this had actually happened in Allahabad.

So she had called her friends over there to verify.

Are you convinced now?

P.D. Tandon lane. Boys High school. Isn't there everything?

Are you convinced now?

I was convinced.

I was just verifying it.

Senior citizens..

..are being cheated these days.. - Shut up.

He is like this.

If he has a doubt about something he will not give up until he finds the truth.

Why don't you stop thinking?

Stupid.

Yes, hit him once again on my behalf.

One from my end.

Hello, Sanjya. - Yes.

Your role of an Allahabad's local guide was awesome.

Nobody can say that you're Maharashtrian.

I'm in the theater since the past 20 years.

Can't I do this role?

Correct.

Okay, listen.

When will your next play be?

Where? In Pune?

On 20th.

Reserve two tickets for me.

Why two?

I will be coming with a friend.

Is she the same girl?

Yes, of course.

Okay, see you. Bye.

Okay, bye.

Bye. - Yes.

Do you see all this?

In such a short time..

..I can see major changes in the house.

Just a few days ago I had told you..

..that I am a simple man.

I've lived a simple life.

I mean, on happy occasions I become happy.

And on sad occasions, I become sad.

But in my life of 75 years..

..the situation that I've come across now.

How do I face it?

I'm unable to understand that.

In some corner of my mind..

..I feel..

..that this should be true.

This should happen.

And I must meet Amitabh Bachchan once.

This is just my feeling, okay?

I still have uncertainty..

..in my mind.

And that's true.

So?

What do I do?

You tell me.

Yes, Sanya.

Gargi, listen.

Our plan is gradually turning successful.

But grandpa is not 100% convinced.

But you said..

..just send a letter and things will be alright.

Yes, I know but things haven't gone as per my imagination.

Anyway, what do you want me to do next?

Listen.

I've mailed you what I want.

Send me that mail immediately in Amitabh Bachchan's handwriting.

Yes, I will do that. But today I've some workload, so..

Never mind.

Your work is important.

So finish your work and then do my job.

Yes, I will send you the reply as quickly as possible.

Okay? - Yes.

Yes, bye. - Bye.

I've solved your problem in no time.

Meaning?

I've sent a direct mail to Amitabh Bachchan.

What?

You've sent a mail to Amitabh Bachchan?

Yes, directly.

And in clear words I've written to him..

..that you've sent a letter to my grandpa.

But he doesn't recollect if you'll were classmates.

So now you take care of the matter.

How can you send him such a mail?

What else do you expect me to do, grandpa?

You're not getting out of the situation.

So I've approached him directly. That's it.

And let me tell you this finally, grandpa.

If you get a reply of this mail..

..it means he was your classmate.

And if you didn't get a reply..

..then you can understand.

Okay? Done?

Thank you.

Sir, the detailing is over.

Air tickets. Allahabad's hotel booking.

And crew's entry passes are ready.

Good job.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you.

Madam.

Your prints.

Yes, come.

Take this.

Dad! Uncle! - Yes.

I want to show you something shocking.

Mom. - Show me. - Yes.

Aunt. - Yes.

Come fast.

And you bring grandpa. Go, fast.

Sanya.

Come, Radha. - Wait for a minute, dad. - What's it?

Show us before they come.

Wait, uncle.

Have some patience. I will tell you.

What's it? - Come sit, mom.

What's the matter? - Come fast, aunt.

He has a habit of creating suspense.

Please sit, grandpa.

Now listen.

I've received the reply..

..of my mail to Amitabh Bacchhan.

What are you saying? - Yes.

Let me read it for you all. - Please.

Respectable Sunny. That's me. - Continue.

Like Chandrakant, few of our classmates..

..are also unable to recollect anything.

It's very natural that you tend to forget things at this age.

Let me tell you one thing.

I'm sure Chandrkant would remember it.

We were quite naughty during the class.

What?

Sharma sir always shouted on us and he used to say..

Keep quiet, ABCD.

ABCD means Amitabh Bachchan.

And Chandrakant Deshpande.

Oh.. - Yes.

Attached herewith is a group photo of our school life.

I'm sure he will recollect everything after watching it.

Thank you. your friend Amitabh Bachchan.

Did he send a photo? - Show us.

Open it. - Turn this way.

Oh.. - Wait. Let me show it to grandpa.

Turn this side.

You look so handsome.

Show me. - Let me see.

Show me. - Bring it here.

Show me.

See this.

Amitabh Bachchan and grandpa. - Wow!

Oh yes. It's true. - Isn't the photograph too old?

Dad.

It's a childhood photograph. It has to be old.

This.. Is this Amitabh Bachchan? - Yes.

Yes, there's no doubt about it. Look at his sparkling eyes.

Clearly visible even at such a young age. Quite strange.

But in childhood..

..Amitabh Bachchan was quite short, isn't it?

One can get tall later. - Dad.

Watch their friendship.

Yes, it's like Jay and Veeru's friendship.

Dad, this is really wonderful.

He was handsome, but even dad looked..

..like an emperor even without moustache.

Yes.

It's NCC means..

This is a scout photo.

Look at it.

No, is he Sharma sir? - Yes.

Yes, that's right.

Presentation is a must.

You're ready with it, right?

Yes. - So give it.

What are you checking?

No, I was just setting this photo on my screensaver.

I see.

Having Amitabh's photo as your screensaver..

..is nothing new.

He has millions of fans.

But tell me. How many are fortunate..

..to have such a photo?

Let me see. - Here it is.

Show me as well.

Show us also.

Wait a minute.

Okay. - I will put it little away so that everybody can see.

Yes, that's right.

What's this?

Can you see those two in a circle?

One of them is my father.

And the other boy is Amitabh Bachchan.

I see. That's good.

Amitabh has sent this photo.

From his school time.

But which one is Amitabh? On the right or on the left?

Amitabh is lefty, right?

Yes.

So he must be on the left.

Yes, tell me.

Mom.

I've recently posted on our family group.

All the photos.

Did you see everybody's reaction?

Yes, of course. I've seen everybody's reactions.

Thumbs up. Smileys Bouquet.

Clap.

Yes, that's my father-in-law's achievement.

Mom, Amitabh Bachchan.

It's not a small thing.

Even if they have a photo with..

..a struggling actor they proudly post in the group.

Tell them to see this photo.

You're so fortunate.

To marry in such a nice family.

Dad, fennel seeds.

Yes.

So, is your window repaired now?

Yes.

I had spoken with the fabricator guy.

He was refusing to come.

But I insisted that he comes.

We've a senior citizen at home.

What if due to wind flow you catch cough and cold?

Who will be responsible?

Then he quickly came.

Is it alright now? Smooth?

Otherwise I will call him again.

No, no need. It's smooth now.

I don't want smoother than this.

Otherwise, it will slide with my breathing.

This is fine.

Dad, you're too funny.

Okay, tell me if you need anything.

Dad.

Goodnight.

I forgot to take sugar pills.

Do you want money to buy now? - No need.

Daughter-in-law had kept it ready on the table.

But I forgot. Now she will shout at me.

Hey. - Yes.

Did you get the news?

Which news?

Amitabh Bachchan and CD.

They are close friends.

I got to know that they were classmates.

That's okay.

But my daughter-in-law and CD's daughter-in-law are of the same class.

Huh?

I mean they are members of savings scheme group.

Okay. - And she told me.

But listen.

Amitabh Bachchan and CD...

...are close friends. And we are getting the news from outside.

But why didn't CD himself tell us?

Exactly. - Even I agree with you.

Let him come.

We will question him. - Yes.

Keep everything ready. - Yes, it is.

Sir is here.

Sir.. Sir..

Sir, I wanted to talk.

With me?

Yes, sir. I won't take much of your time.

Regarding what?

Sir, our Bachchan.

Bachchan?

Amitabh Bachchan, sir.

What will I say about him?

You can say anything, sir.

Are you ready? - Yes.

Is it on?

Madam, your hair. - Yes.

Sir is also ready.

Hello, friends.

You can see that we are with Mr. Deshpande.

Amitabh Bachchan's close friend Deshpande.

Sai Baba local channel is lucky..

..to be the first to get his interview.

So from him, we will find out..

..how old their friendship is.

How did they become friends?

And how are they keeping in touch now?

So, Mr. Deshpande. My first question..

..to you is.

How old is your friendship?

Our friendship? - Yes.

How old is my friendship with Amitabh Bachchan?

Yes.

I am sorry.

But is there any compulsion to give this interview?

Yes, sir. - Sorry, but I can't give it.

Thank you. - Sir, you can't do this.

Thank you. - Sir, it is prestigious, when we ask for interview.

Thank you. - Come on.

You can see.

Amitabh Bachchan's closest friend is not ready to talk to the camera.

Never mind. This is Mrinal with cameraman Rajesh.

Do you have any different sections for senior citizens?

Yes, we are running many schemes for senior citizens. - Dad is here.

Hello. - Hello.

Ma'am.

Hello, sir.

Sir, we have come from Good Health hospital.

Yes, I understood.

Please sit.

Please.

No, thank you, sir. - Thank you.

Tell me. - I came with a proposal, sir.

What proposal?

We run various schemes..

..for senior citizens.

I understood.

So our management wanted..

..you to be the brand ambassador.

Wow! Brand ambassador!

Yes. - Isn't it good, sister-in-law?

What will you pay?

We will talk about this. - Just..

Just a minute.

I should be the brand ambassador of a hospital?

Are you pulling my leg? How's this possible?

That's your humbleness, sir.

Give me some time to think over this.

Yes, you can take your time, sir.

Anyway, you've reached a high position.

Okay, tell me one thing.

If suppose..

..I accept your offer.

What will be my job?

Nothing much.

We run various programs in our hospital. - Okay.

You need to be present during the programs.

Okay. - And in Amitabh style..

..you will have to give a small photo session.

Photo session.

Okay, you can leave for now.

I will let you know my decision later.

Okay. - Fine.

Okay. We will wait for your reply. - Sure.

Did you have tea?

Yes, we did. - Okay.

See you. - Yes.

We will let you know, ma'am. - Sure.

Doing a photo session is no big deal.

Joshi, you can eat some sweets.

Madam, sweets. You too.

Thanks. - What's the news?

You know Amitabh Bachchan.

He's my father's classmate.

Is it? - And for his program in Allahabad..

..he has specially invited my father.

Amitabh Bachchan himself has sent the invitation.

Wow! That's great!

What's it now?

Come on, you ask me?

We, the senior citizen group..

..will be celebrating your..

..75th birthday.

Will you please listen to me?

No, you had said.

That we will celebrate senior citizen's birthdays..

..on the last Sunday of his birth month.

Yes.

We've followed your method.

So now you must abide by the same rule.

We will celebrate your birthday in our group and that's final. - Yes.

Stop.

Come.. - Yes.

Madam, please sit.

Uncle Sawant and uncle Shivalkar.

Without consulting us..

..how could you decide to celebrate father's birthday?

What do you mean? - Why should we consult you?

Just a minute.

Didn't you recognise her yet? - No.

She's the chairperson of women's committee.

Okay, so?

Hello! - And a member of our savings group.

Most importantly she is waiting..

..since the past one hour, before you all came. - Yes.

Earlier Dad.. you were reading the newspaper.

So we didn't disturb you. - Yes.

Such respect? - Yes.

Dad, she wants you to give a speech in the women's committee meeting.

Global definition of Deshpande and Bachchan's friendship.

Oh my God! - Yes.

And dad, our savings group women..

..want to honour you. - Yes.

The reason is such. I mean.. Amitabh Bachchan.

No, no.. We don't know all this.

Deshpande will come in our group. - Yes.

But he will first come in our meeting.

Just not possible. - How can that be?

How is that possible?

Can I give some input?

Listen. - What?

In my opinion, You all shouldn't excite so much and announce something big.

But, dad..

But.. - Let me finish.

Getting honoured in Senior Citizen groups is okay.

Only on my friend's insistence.

Because I had set that rule for all.

But don't extend things beyond a certain level.

This is my humble request to all of you.

But listen to us. - Please.

Hey, but.. - Please.

But.. - Please.

Okay, now listen.

I will show you how the set should be..

..on CD's birthday. - Okay.

Take this. See. - Show me.

Let me see. - Yes.

Wow! It's very nice.

21.

20. - Okay.

This way. - I know.

I am the tailor, okay?

Of course you are. - Do it slowly.

46.. 46.

Okay.

You see, we must take proper measurements.

That's my business. For any ordinary person..

..simple or XL or XXL measurement is okay.

But if the person is a celebrity.

Moreover, if it's his birthday.

Then I've to take many efforts.

I've to work hard. Okay, leave it.

Tell me one thing.

What type of fabric do you want?

You tell me, what type of fabric do you want?

Cotton. Tericotton. Terywool. Polyester.

Silk, handloom. It's in fashion now.

Branded.. branded one, with good quality.

Okay, branded. - No.

Use quality silk. Pure silk or raw silk.

Pure silk or.. - Pure silk is good.

Pure silk is good, right grandpa?

Never think like this.

That I am a senior citizen.

And will this suit me? It's nothing like that.

Don't forget whose friend you are.

Oh my God!

So you also got the news.

Yes, of course. - This is shocking.

Most importantly.

I've a request.

Go ahead.

It's okay if you don't pay me.

No problem. But..

Introduce me with Amitabh Bachchan. Right?

Correct.

Is it proper? - Yes.

This painting is really beautiful, isn't it?

It has added to the glory of the house.

After all, it is mother-in-law's choice.

She had chosen these paintings from dad's collections.

But, sister-in-law.

Whether it is dad or his paintings.

Mother-in-law's choice..

Oh.

Hey, it's surprising.

These paintings are back in their place?

I mean it was a mismatch with the curtains and walls.

Yes. - I mean..

We realized that these paintings are adding to the glory of this house.

That's why..

Let's change the paintings of that side. - Yes.

Let's go inside now. - Yes.

I've seen many colours in life.

For the first time in life I've seen the..

..colour that changes so quickly and rapidly.

Yes, Sanya. What's it?

Nothing.

Just called to say that everything is going on perfectly over here.

Good! Finally, I'm free now.

What do you mean?

Half of my working hours were spent doing your job.

What are you saying?

Yes, of course.

I'm taking salary from this office and working for you.

Amitabh sir's signature.

Makes the fonts of his handwriting.

Edit his photos. Everything was done for you.

Come on, Gargi. Boyfriend..

Can't you do this much for a friend?

Yes, everything for a friend. Okay.

I will genuinely get busy now.

Because, Amitabh sir's entire program's planning..

..travelling, booking and everything is on me now.

Okay. - So I will be very busy now.

I can understand that.

I hope you wouldn't forget me in all this.

Shut up.

Okay, bye.

Take care. - Yes, bye.

May I come in, sir? - Yes.

Sir, I wanted to speak to you.

Do you need permission?

It's not regarding the work.

I wanted to file a complaint.

Complaint? - Yes, sir.

About Gargi.

Gargi? - Yes.

She's an intelligent girl.

She is handling all the projects of Amitabh sir.

Yes, that's okay. But the problem is..

..that she's using our stationary and laptops..

..sitting in our office and..

..doing somebody else's personal work.

Oh I see.

We've made a simple invitation card of your birthday.

Devki Pundit's performance? - Yes.

Chief guest. Amitabh Bachchan.

Amitabh Bachcchan?

Are you in your senses?

Why will Amitabh Bachchan come to this program?

Why won't he?

If he can invite you for the program..

..that he has organized..

..why can't he attend your program? - Yes.

It's okay..

..about us.

But he is Amitabh Bachchan.

Let him refuse your invitation.

Yes.

Why should we decide on his behalf?

You please listen to me.

Hey, Sunny, come here.

What is it? - My friends..

..have invited a new trouble now.

Come on.

What? Chief guest Amitabh Bachchan?

Yes.

Do one thing.

Take a photo of this card.

And e-mail it to Amitabh Bachchan.

Yes.

No, I won't do that.

Sorry. - Yes, he's right.

Why do you involve him in..

..our senior citizen program?

Alright. I have a suggestion.

You just scan this invitation card. - Okay.

And e-mail it to Amitabh from our ID.

It will be senior citizen group's responsibility.

Is it okay now? - Yes.

I knew it.

You've gone so deep in this..

..that on your call I can understand..

..it is regarding Amitabh sir. So, tell me.

No, I've sent you an invitation card.

Have you checked it?

Yes, I received it.

Your senior citizens are so daring.

Yes, what do I say and how?

They've insisted I send a mail to Amitabh Bachchan.

Okay, I've received your mail. What do you want me to do next?

Nothing, just write in Amitabh's handwriting.

Thank you for the invitation.

My best wishes to Mr. Chandrakant.

And sorry for not being able to attend the program due to some personal reasons.

Okay, I will do that. I will do it now.

Please.

Yes, bye. - Bye.

Madam, sir has called you.

Coming, just five minutes.

No, he has called you urgently.

Yes, coming. - Okay.

Gargi, what have I heard?

That you're doing some outside work from this office?

No, sir. It's not outside work.

May I come in, sir? - Yes.

It was my personal work.

It's of the family. That's why.

Sir, this is the latest printout.

And these are the earlier ones.

Sir.

Oh my God!

Gargi, I am really surprised.

What's this?

Sir, please.. - Which are these papers?

No, sir. Please listen to me.

You're not doing any outside work from the office..

..but it is regarding Amitabh sir.

What's this? What do I understand from this?

Sir, and such our office project is leaked outside, which means..

You?!

Bring her laptop to me.

What do I understand from these papers, Gargi?

Is this your work ethics?

May I come in? - Yes.

Sir.

Yogesh, wait outside. I will call you later.

Okay.

Sir, please listen to me. It's nothing like that.

Doing Amitabh Bachchan's project.

Now, you will know how it feels to snatch away my project.

Hello.

Sanya, listen. There's a problem.

What happened?

Boss got to know everything and he has seized my laptop.

It has all the materials regarding Amitabh Bachchan..

..and his handwriting font.

So now?

I don't know.

Listen.

I can't send you Amitabh's refusal letter now.

Bye.

God!

Yes.

Coming.

I will see, dad. You please, sit.

Hey.

Congratulations!

What happened?

But what has happened?

Hey.

- Please, be seated. - Just a minute.

Please, be seated.

What's it?

No idea. They barged in all of a sudden.

What has happened?

Congratulating me for what? What is going on?

Don't ask.

You're the winner. You won the game.

Yes.

What has happened? Which game? Please, specify.

See this.

We've received Amitabh's mail.

- Yes. - Look at this printout.

- Read it out. - If the program is on 27th..

..then I will definitely attend it.

See this. Read it.

Oh really? Is it true?

Uncle Sawant.

I hope you're not pulling our legs.

Like it happened in Peshwa rule..

..he might have refused..

..and you misunderstood it as his consent.

Sunny, let me see.

We really took efforts for this.

These clients..

Sorry, sir.

She is disconnecting the call.

Sorry, sir.

She is disconnecting the call.

Keep trying.

I am so sorry, sir.

I am extremely sorry, sir.

I forgot to silence it.

Give me two minutes, sir.

Sorry. Sorry.

Sunny, when I'm disconnecting your call, you should not try again.

But listen.

Sunny, I told you my laptop is with sir.

But, I..

As soon as I get my laptop I will reply.

I don't know how..

..but we've already received Amitabh's reply and he has accepted the invitation.

What?!

Exactly, and you said you haven't sent it yet.

But I mean it. I haven't sent any mail.

Then how did we receive that e-mail?

I've no idea.

Okay, I will see what has to be done.

I will call you later, bye.

Hello!

Hello!

She has disconnected it.

I don't understand what is going on.

What do you mean?

These things are not in our plan, how could it happen?

I didn't get you.

Gargi said she hasn't sent any letter.

And even if she had, she'd have expressed refusal.

I don't understand what is going on.

What is going on?

What is this?

Will you please explain?

It's nothing, grandpa. It's just like that.

Will I..

Let's go inside.

Will you please let me know now?

Grandpa, my friend named Gargi..

..works with a channel.

She got an opportunity..

..to shoot Amitabh Bachchan's event.

She was also introduced with Amitabh Bachchan in that regard.

I thought of an idea..

..that with her help..

..if we prove that you and Amitabh are friends.

It will earn you some respect.

I did all this for you, dad.

I mean, we could notice your loneliness.

And we planned to end your troubles..

..in this house.

And that letter..

..the video of Allahabad.

Everything was fake.

Nothing is true. Even Sanju is also a fake.

Now, this letter of acceptance which we received.

I don't know who is playing with us now.

That's okay.

Whatever you just told me..

..has already happened.

Okay. Done.

Thank you. It has happened.

Amitabh is going to come.

It was a game for you.

But who landed in trouble now?

Me. How do I face the family members?

And the outsiders?

What about my friends from the senior citizen group?

Grandpa, you please don't attend that program of senior citizen group.

Please, express your inability to attend that program.

Why? Why shouldn't I go?

Tell me. Why shouldn't I go?

As per your plan, they've made complete arrangements.

In fact, I am going to go there.

With a smiling face.

I will attend that program.

And I will let them carry out the entire program.

Then I will go on the stage..

..and apologize to them with folded hands.

And will tell that it was a lie.

- And then I will slap myself. - Don't do that, grandpa, please.

I will tell them that it wasn't like this.

All this was a lie.

Amitabh Bachchan will not be coming here.

Because we don't know each other.

No.

I won't take your name.

I will take the entire blame.

At the most what will happen?

People will abuse me and curse me.

They will call me a liar.

That will be a gift to me on my 75th birthday.

But I will attend the program. That's final.

I will go with a smile.

"Forget all the troubles."

"Forget all the troubles."

"Forget that prank."

"With a smile, celebrate."

Why are you giving me calls?

And what are you doing here?

I've come till here but..

..I can't dare enter inside.

How can you do that?

Grandpa was very angry at home.

He said he will attend the program and reveal the truth to all.

People will hit me. I will accept that.

If they won't hit me, I will hit myself and all that.

I hope he won't do that actually.

I wish he wouldn't.

We tried to earn him some respect. But things have gone reverse.

Its become a headache now.

So what will you do now?

I've no idea.

No matter what, you must go inside.

- No. - You can't do that.

If we won't be there, the problem can worsen. Come inside.

- Please, come. - No.

Friends.

It's a very lucky day of my life.

It's a happy day.

I won't say it's only a happy day.

Its worth penned down in golden words.

Centuries pass.

And there rises a day.

When you get an opportunity to compare programme..

..for grand birthday celebration of a great personality.

I'm fortunate to get that opportunity today.

So I am not just lucky..

..but fortunate.

75 years ago..

..a miracle happened in this universe.

Our closest friend and most loved..

..whom we call CD aka Chandrakant Deshpande..

..was born on this day.

- Shivalkar. - Yes.

- Shivalkar. - Yes.

Will you please stop and give me a chance?

What?

I said, can I get a chance to say something?

Will you please stop and give me a chance to speak?

What do you mean?

Come, please come. You're a star today.

It's your day.

Come and say something.

Let us listen to you..

..in your unique style of giving speeches..

..in pure Marathi.

Welcome.

Friends.

All of us are getting aged with time.

So experiences keep on adding in life.

That's why..

..I hope we all understand.

That there's always two sides of a coin.

Similarly, even today's event..

..of welcoming Amitabh Bachchan.

Even this event can have..

..another side, right?

I am going to talk to you regarding that other side.

Friends.

In his marvelous speech..

..my friend..

..Shivalkar..

..praised me a lot out of..

.. respect, love and care..

All that praising..

..reflects your love..

..faith..

..and friendship.

But whatever I am going to tell you now..

..after that..

..your love..

..faith..

..and respect for me..

..might turn..

..into extreme hatred.

I'm sure about that.

That's why.

I must share this with you all.

Because, friends.

Whatever little life I've now.

I don't want to..

..live it..

..with a burden of lies.

I won't take your time.

Just in three sentences..

Only in three sentences..

..I will end my speech.

And end this drama.

Sentence one.

Amitabh Bachchan was never my classmate.

Sentence two.

Amitabh Bachchan and I do not know each other.

We've never seen each other.

And sentence three.

Amitabh Bachchan will not come to attend this event today.

Will not come.. will not come..

Now behind all this..

..whose fault is it? Who's responsible?

Don't trouble yourself..

..in finding out all this.

But I feel that..

when we take a particular step,

..of course with a good intention,

..but for its successful execution,

..we happen..

..to choose a wrong path..

..then everything..

..just collapses.

So..

Once again I repeat.

Amitabh Bachchan.

This gentleman..

..was never my classmate. We never knew each other.

And even today we do not know.

Today, Amitabh Bachchan will not be coming to this program.

He will not be coming. will not be coming. will not be coming

If possible, forgive me.

Thank you.

Chandu!

Chandu! I've come.

Hello, ladies and gentlemen!

This is Amitabh Bachchan.

Today I've come here..

..to meet my closest friend Chandrakant Deshpande.

Because it's his 75th birthday today.

Chandrakant and I were batch mates.

We were in the same school for three years.

So, Chandu, happy birthday and congratulations.

Round of applause for him.

Chandu, I want to tell you.

Because it's your birthday..

..it's not compulsory that I will speak only good about you.

I'm your very good friend.

So, I can even speak about your flaws.

So, ladies and gentlemen.

After his wife's death..

..he stopped painting.

He's such a good painter.

He is so talented.

But he stopped painting.

Why?

Because his wife is no more, he stopped painting.

No. This is wrong.

Let me tell you one thing. Listen to me carefully.

Remember if our talent..

..is not with us in our old age..

..we will not be able to find the beauty of life.

All I want to say..

..is that preserve and nourish your talent.

In your old age, only your talent..

..will bring you happiness in life.

Thank you for your invitation to this program.

I'm thankful to all of you.

Bye.

Bye, Chandu.

See you.

Sir, my family.

Okay. Let's go.

Excuse me, sir.

Okay, Chandrakant.

Happy birthday.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

May I come in, sir?

Yes, come in, Gargi.

Sir, I wanted to talk about something important with you.

- Go ahead. - Sir.

Sir, I accept my mistake.

I did outside job from the office.

But the biggest question in my mind..

..is that even after I had stopped working..

..how the acceptance letter signed by..

..Amitabh Bachchan reached Pune?

Most importantly..

..how did he reach the programme.

Why do you ask me, Gargi?

Sir, my laptop was in your custody.

And Amitabh Sir's signature font was in that laptop.

Only you've the password to my laptop.

What do you mean?

Sir, you're on a very big post.

You're senior to me.

But.. You're not an expert in speaking lies.

I am sorry.

Yes. Yes, you're right, Gargi.

Sit down.

Please be seated.

I had sent that letter.

That day I was shouting at you but actually I was not.

I was extracting information from you.

About Chandrakant Deshpande sir.

My drawing teacher.

Was Chandrakant Deshpande your teacher?

Yes.

He was my drawing teacher.

In childhood, I've stayed in his house a number of times.

I've had lunch with his family.

Actually, my drawing improved because of him.

I became a GD art commercial.

I reached this position today.

In between, I had forgotten all this but..

Thanks to you, Gargi.

Because of you..

..I recollected my past days. I recollected my teacher.

After you left..

..I kept thinking what I can do.

Coincidently..

..Amitabh sir was in Pune for a shooting.

- Hello, sir. - Hello.

Sir, I had a request to make.

My drawing teacher.

I've learnt drawing from him in my childhood.

Sir, his 75th birthday is coming close.

And his friends have organized a program to celebrate his birthday.

I am also Chandrakant Deshpande's student, sir.

Whatever I am today..

..is because of him.

I will share the rest of the details with you later, sir.

We are in Pune.

And I have a request to you.

I'd be obliged if you can attend..

..that function at least for five minutes.

It's a request.

Okay, sir. Bye.

Bye.

And look at his greatness.

Somebody whom he has never seen in life.

He agreed to come and meet him..

..no matter it was only for five minutes..

But only on my request..

..he agreed to come to that program.

He's great.

But you too are great, sir.

Thank you.

I will take your leave.

Hmm..

Just a minute, Gargi.

Sir doesn't know this.

So do not tell him.

Don't tell anyone about this in the outside world.

My sir's dreams were never big.

He has got this big dream now.

Let him live in that dream.

Anyway, I could never give anything to sir.

I'll be satisfied that in this pretext, I've given him something.

Okay, sir.

- Hello, Sanya. - Tell me.

- Suspense is over. - What do you mean?

Check who's at the door, Shravni?

How many times should I fill up these forms?

The forms are increased. Turn over.

You've a courier.

Please, sign here.

Grandpa, a courier for you.

Once again?

- Yes. - Let me check.

Once again you've got a courier. And the address is correct.

- What's it? - Shall I open it?

Yes, please.

- What's the matter? - One more courier for grandpa.

Once again?

- What's this now? - What happened?

It's Rekha's letter to grandpa.

She said she studied with grandpa in college.

She has organized a get-together of college friends..

..and grandpa is also invited.

- Strange! - Who's this Rekha now?

It's property tax bill and he says..

..it's Rekha's invitation to grandpa for a get-together.

Give him a tight slap.

Hit him once again on my behalf.

Never speak lies.

It affects one's intelligence.

What do you mean?

I can't explain.

I will show you in a style that you understand.

Hey, Sunny. Never speak lies.

If you speak lies, it affects your brain, understood?
