It's good man, the interview went well. I think, it will work out.

Okay, brother. The company sucks but the market is a wreck.

Take what you get.

Deal with it for a bit and then you can switch.

Yes, that's the plan. Let's see now.

Okay, disconnect now. Lunch is here.

Are you having lunch now? Man, it's time for tea!

Wow, you're living the corporate standard time life. Enjoy.

Okay, bye.

Bye, bye.

Yes, tell me.

-Hello? Dad? -Yes.

I will be a little bit late.

I am coming via the super corridor. The weather is great.

You're giving me an update as if I'm your boss!

Come when you want.

I thought I should tell you. Okay, fine. I will be there.

Listen, bring hot pretzels on your way back.

-Ratan! -Yes?

Two plates of sweet porridge too.

Can you bring two plates of sweet porridge for Mr. Mathur?

Okay.

I get why the business is floundering.

All that interests the both of you is food.

Listen, I will tell Mr. Mathur you said so.

Come on! I am kidding! What's wrong with you?

As if I was going to tell him!

Great! Both of you love eating and we love feeding people!

It seems, the third branch of Goyal Mishthaan Bhandar was meant

to be inaugurated in this shop. Am I right, uncle?

Yes, why not?

Oh, oh, oh, oh!

What's up, Javed Bhai? The pretzels are here.

That's all very well, Mr. Mathur.

But your asking rate is high. I mean considering my budget...

Mr. Goyall! From GMB.

He is quite keen to buy the shop.

To buy it?

You won't get a shop at this low rate, elsewhere.

Just see what a posh area Geeta Bhavan is!

It was a posh area, Mr. Mathur!

The posh folks in Indore prefer going

to Vijaynagar and Ring Road these days.

Only if we could get some more time

we would have gotten better rates for this shop.

What can we do, there is no time.

The business is in the doldrums too.

Dad, do you remember Javed Bhai's cycle?

You used to send me early in the morning to Indore Junction.

To stand in the Tatkal tickets line.

Yes! You used to be half asleep.

You used to take the cycle and run to the ticket counter.

As soon as you got the Tatkal tickets

I got a trip to Tafreeh garden for every ten tickets.

You got me to do all the chores by playing games.

Where does the game come into it?

I mean you said it.

After ten Tatkal tickets, you got a ticket to Tafreeh garden.

I used to wait for it to get to ten.

As soon as ten were completed

I used to give you a ticket to Tafreeh Garden.

Okay, then.

So what now, dad?

Is it all over?

You don't need to turn and look back.

Just look ahead.

And focus on your work.

Get it?

Don't get involved in all this.

[indistinct chatter]

I told you, I have made the payments.

We have checked the system a couple of times, sir.

There is no error.

In the last 45 days, no EMI has been paid.

Listen. I am telling you, please check again properly. Okay?

Sir, your total outstanding payment this month is Rs. 1.25 lakhs.

If you don't pay it, we will have to take legal action.

What are you saying? What legal action?

I am busy right now, I can't speak to you.

How did such a stressed creature land up in the temple?

What's going on, son?

You listen to me, first.

That day, who did you go off with after bunking the class?

Look at me!

What? You blackmailed my friends and got all the details, anyway.

Why all the drama then, brother?

Is this how you'll speak to me? That I am being dramatic?

Sukku, tell me something?

Do you remember 8th grade? When you had your first crush?

Who did you tell about him?

You told me.

Mom and dad were suspicious.

They asked me but I didn't say a word.

So, why are you hiding things now? What has changed?

Nothing has changed!

Brother, there is nothing to be said so what can I say?

He is just a friend.

-Is he a friend? -Yes.

Okay, let him stay a friend.

Shekhar, go and pray to the Goddess as well.

Or you will get another call.

Pray for a job. Till when are you going

to sit at home, idle and unemployed?

Hey!

Such nonsense you talk! Go on.

Is that how you speak to your brother?

RIDDHIMA: MADHURAM AT 1 P.M

Man, you!

Did you really think I left Indore because of you?

Seriously?

Ridhima, everyone used to come up to me and say exactly that.

So I believed it.

No.

I was upset, but not to that extent.

Dad got transferred.

We had to leave suddenly.

I made other friends there and got busy.

A 9th-grade girl’s emotions have a short shelf life.

Don't feel quite so bad. It's okay.

It wasn't such a big deal.

What?

No, no, nothing.

I was just thinking, perhaps

the shelf life of my emotions was probably longer.

That's why I am still...

Why didn't you contact me, then?

I tried.

I sent an apology on Torkut as well.

I didn't get any reply so...

Because by then people had moved onto FB.

Okay, fair enough.

Can we get out of here?

Can we go to Nafees? I really want to devour a biryani.

It will take two minutes.

Did you tell your family about eating non-veg?

What do I have to tell the family? I mean...

I would have to mention it, if I stayed at home.

Let's go. By the way, what's up with you nowadays?

Did you lose your job or something?

Shall we go?

WHEN WILL YOU GIVE MY MONEY BROTHER?

YOU WEREN'T AT THE SHOP TODAY?

BROTHER I NEED MONEY.

Table for two, please.

Sorry, sir. But you and your wife will have to wait up to 10 minutes.

-We-- -It's okay.

Okay. We can wait.

It's not his fault.

In our city, after a certain age,

a boy and girl are assumed to be a couple.

Seriously?

Nothing?

What?

You aren't going to ask my anything?

Now don't tell me, you haven't heard anything yet.

Yeah, of course I heard about it.

But what should I ask?

I don't understand, anyway.

When Darshan told me about it

all I wanted to know was, are you okay or not.

That's it.

And divorce is not a big deal.

I am sure, people already must have asked you a lot of questions, so...

I don't want to ask anything.

You're maybe the first person who hasn't made me feel like a victim.

But there is nothing that makes you the victim, in all this.

And...

What can I say? I am sitting here, unemployed.

I am unemployed, you're the victim. B and B, baby.

Yuck!

I am sorry!

Umesh and I didn't even get to know each other well.

After some weeks I realized that he is very different from me.

If we hadn't been married

I would never even have been his friend.

You know?

Was he that bad?

He wasn't bad, he was just wrong, for me.

By the way,

can I tell you something funny?

You came here from Bangalore and I am going to Bangalore, now.

When are you leaving?

I got a job at TechnoSity.

So I am just serving out my two month notice period, that's all.

That's great! Congratulations!

Wow! You're really moved!

Oh, yeah. I am moved. I bit into a chili.

-Two minutes. -Yeah.

You were saying, Bangalore?

What? TechnoSity? That's perfect.

I just wanted to get out of this city and this mindset.

I got an opportunity and I didn't let it go.

Simple.

You did the best thing ever, trust me.

I am also just waiting it out.

Once I get a good job, I will jet out to Bangalore again.

It's really chill in Bangalore, you know? It's really chill.

We are going to have a lot of fun.

So you mean, this helpless woman won't be alone in an unknown city?

There has to be a 'knight in armor' for the 'damsel in distress'.

Some things happen in childhood

and you think, they will never change.

For example?

For example...

Having fun with school friends and enjoying.

Shah Rukh's youth, Sachin's form!

One's waistline, hairline, lots of things.

But they change.

Ma'am, two betel leaves for you.

Thank you.

What I mean to say is, that...

Growing up is what? Basically, making peace with that.

But change can also be a good thing, right?

Yes. Yeah.

What I mean to say is that when things change, then...

it does hurt a little.

For example

Ever since I have become aware, I saw dad's business grow.

Now it's shutting down.

Why? Because people change, right?

People stopped going to the travel agency.

Everything gets done online, Flymio, BMT.

And Ridhima, you know the sad part is that because of all this

my best memory of childhood

will now stay confined to being a memory.

So yeah...

That's right, but it's wrong to blame them, too.

They provide value to the people.

That's why people go to them.

Your dad also started this business

to add value to people's lives, right?

It was successful for 29 years.

And I am sure, he would be happy to know

that his son's best memory

is related to his work.

That actually means a lot.

Let's go.

Give me a cigarette.

-Which one do you want? -Give me any brand, man!

Kamal Bro!

Kamal Bro!

Kamal Bro!

Kamal Bro!

Goodnight.

Eat well.

What is it, dad?

What are you doing out in the cold?

This plant has turned yellow. I am curing it a bit.

With chanting...

I cure them with that. They listen to music and feel good and heal.

Now, as in?

Now, what?

What?

Don't we take meds as soon as we fall sick?

I will cure them in my own way and they will be fine by tomorrow.

-Okay. -I am trying.

Okay, listen.

Tell me,

did you get any offers?

No, I didn't get any offers.

But I did get an idea.

Please come and sit. I will tell you about it.

Won't you feel cold, out in the open?

That's it... no. It's a steaming hot idea

and it's going to be a lot of fun.

So...

Tell me,

Which shop's betel leaf do you like the most of all?

I don't eat betel leaf.

What are you saying?

I have given it up.

Oh yes.

You've come after a very long time too.

My son, it's been quite some time since I gave it up. Yes.

Really?

Okay, fine. When you did eat betel leaf, where did you eat from?

You know our guy, from old Palasia.

On the side. Sunder Lal.

-Sunder Lal. Yes. -He makes the amazing betel leaf.

Just tell him, what all needs to be added.

He will cook up an amazing combination.

That's it! This is it.

Why did you like that betel leaf so much?

Because Sunder Lal

he customized the betel leaf as per your taste.

Right?

Now we have to do the same thing with our agency.

What do the folks at Flymio and BMT do?

They make a fixed travel itinerary of one type and make bookings.

Dad, we have a greater on-ground network then they do.

We can offer each customer local experiences based on personality.

They don't get all these experiences on that website.

Do you understand?

You don't understand.

It's okay, never mind.

Let's do one thing. Just assume

that it's uncle Baweja.

Let's talk about uncle Baweja.

We have to plan a tour for uncle Baweja.

He wants to travel to Panchmarhi, Pench.

So what can we do for him?

That Baweja...

What is it?

Baweja, oh man...

He won't go beyond the corner wine shop! A tour?

He is a dumbo.

That's okay, that's his taste, right?

-Right? -Yes.

So we will play with that.

So what do we do?

We will tell the locals there

to take him for a country liquor tasting.

Right? That's one offer.

Uncle Baweja was just saying that he went for some trek

and he really enjoyed it. So send him on some outlandish trek!

What did we do?

We take his tastes

into consideration and customize his travel itinerary to fit it.

Dad, customisation.

That is the game. That is what we will play.

Sunny.

Listen to me. Don't get into these worthless things.

Don't waste your time.

It's best to forget the time that has gone past us.

Dad, we haven't run out of time. We still have loads of time.

Do you know,

A-1 Paradise Travels is still famous in half of Indore?

And you don't have to do anything. Give me a chance, too.

I will go to the agency, I will figure it out.

-There are a few companies-- -Listen to me.

You want to help me, right?

So then just do one thing.

Focus on searching for a job. That's it!

Dad, I will do that too! I have to do it, I will do it too.

But we can do all this, dad.

-It's possible. It can be done. -No.

Listen, I have a plan.

-Don't stress out. -No.

There are a couple of companies

-which are-- -No.

I am hungry, I want to eat food. You have to eat too.

Come inside.

Close the netted door or the mosquitoes will attack.

Come along.

Good afternoon, sir.

This is Shekhar Dwivedi calling from A-1 Paradise Travels.

I need to ask about your travel requirements for two minutes.

No, sir. I am not selling a credit card.

No, sir. I have a lot in common with you!

I am not boasting, sir

but you will not feel you've met me once you do.

You will feel like you've met yourself.

No, like a mirror, right?

No, sir, I am not selling a credit card.

Hello?

Get lost!

♪ The list of tensions is long Life doesn't make sense ♪

♪ Stitch it all you want, but it will still fall apart ♪

We have given the advance.

Listen, you call them. I will call the rest.

Mr. Bhandari, since you said it,

it will be done. Vaishno Devi is confirmed.

As always you will get to worship the Goddess.

Yes. Just take care of what I said.

Give us a fine five star review.

Yes.

Praise the Lord, Mr. Gupta.

I just wanted to ask you to do something.

Do you know Paradise Travels at Geeta Bhawan,

it's a family business.

No, just a small favor from you, a review about it online.

Yes, a five star review.

Check and tell me how does it look?

No, there is no need to worry, ma'am!

We are good for our word, ma'am.

We will be there before time and be there to do all the chores.

Yes, okay. Ma'am, okay.

Goodbye.

I said goodbye.

Man!

What?

Tell me, now!

Will you speak?

Should I say it?

Yes, of course...

So there's that guy, Roshan Ahmed from BookMeraTravel?

Friday at 9:30 a.m., the meeting is on.

Yes! Okay, so it's done. I'm leaving.

Or Priyanka will screw me because of your BMT.

Wait! There is more to do! What the heck, you're running away!

You'll know when you get married.

Mom, do you have something for goodluck? Curd and sugar?

I don't have curd. Are you going somewhere?

Yes. Actually, finally...

There is an interview and it's a great company.

So, I thought I would give it at Maneesh's place.

He can tell when you're lying, in a flash.

Trying to be smart.

Here, take this.

-This should do it too. -Okay.

Here.

Enough.

So listen, as long as you are here,

keep a check on the agency and teach your brother a bit too.

That's it, don't get involved any more than that.

Okay.

So, Sanju Superfast! Where are you rushing to?

I came to meet Kamal Bro.

Wait a bit.

Kamal Bro hasn't come today. Didn't you call before coming?

Don't talk nonsense. I saw his bike parked outside.

That's amazing, brother. Your mind works faster than a computer!

The bike has been parked outside since two days.

Kamal Bro hasn't come today.

Amit, I won't go without meeting him. Move.

Hey, just wait.

You know about Kamal Bro. He will meet you, if he has to.

The thing is, Kamal Bro is a bit busy these days.

Why are you wrecking havoc?

So, sir, through this, our goal will be to offer every customer

a very, intimate, very personalized experience.

And we will manage all these tailor-made local experiences

for your customers on your website.

Which means, network, experience, management is ours, your platform.

Sir, honestly, I am really excited about this.

I just wanted to know what do you think?

I have to admit, it's quite a unique proposition.

-And the presentation is strong too. -Thank you, sir.

But the fact is that tourism in MP is on the rise.

We are already market leaders.

34 employees of our Indore office meet their quarterly sales targets.

So frankly speaking if it's not broken, then why fix it?

Okay.

But sir, even though you are market leaders,

don't you think you can make your market position stronger?

You know, by providing value added services for your customers?

Listen buddy, you can convince me.

But convincing our state/national level managers

would be a long process.

By the way, your pitching skills are pretty good.

Want to join our sales team?

-Hello? -Hi, Shekhar.

-Hi! -Sorry for getting back so late.

-Can we talk? -Yes, yes, sure.

So, Shekhar, I said last time that we really liked your profile.

And we'll offer you a position of Senior Manager at BillPaewala.

If you accept the offer, joining is immediate.

Okay. That's great, thank you.

Can I call you back, please?

Yes, please. Actually, this requirement is a bit immediate.

So you will have to get back to me in the next 24 hours.

Otherwise, I will have to consider the other candidates.

Okay, let me call you back please.

Alright.

I knew it. You would get it someday.

You are so very talented!

It's not that great a company.

But it's okay. The market is down and options are few so I thought...

If the company is not good, you will make it better, right?

You are so hard working.

Congratulations!

When are you joining?

From next week.

I see!

Are you joining next week? That's so great.

That's good.

-Hmm. -Sorry.

Sorry, for what?

Are you crazy?

I am happy you got hired!

-No-- -Come here. Come on.

I am really happy. Everyone is happy.

Dad, the agency pitch...

The BMT guys didn't accept it.

That's okay. What is the big deal?

What is the issue?

Listen, the shop was to be sold and will still get sold.

You have made it light up while it is on its last legs.

Wait and see, we will bid farewell to A-1 Paradise splendidly.

-Right? -Yes.

Right.

I have to call my wife.

She said something about getting cabbage or cauliflower.

I didn't quite get it. Let me call her.

Call her, but you can take both. How does that matter?

Yes, tell me. What is it?

-What? -No, nothing really.

Why are you so worried?

It's nothing.

Listen, don't worry about the shop, son.

Didn't you go all out for making the effort or not?

What is it they say? Those who try, cannot be defeated.

So this is not a defeat.

I just have a request to make of you.

Now don't worry about this shop.

Focus on the job you've got.

Don't think about all this.

Do you understand?

Focus!

That's amazing! These guys have improved so much!

Honestly, they've improved a lot!

Okay, great. This investment by Maneesh has paid off too.

I have heard he supports locals so everyone doesn't run away.

Hey!

Why are you saying that to me? You are leaving too!

I don't have any other option.

But you've done so well with the agency.

And now when you can actually do something, you're leaving.

And that too for a below average job!

You know you deserve better, right?

What is it?

Are you drunk?

Why do you care?

-What is it? -What?

What?

What is going on?

Nothing.

Mind your business.

Where do you always vanish off to?

I mean, you were missing even before

but it's a bit too much, of late.

Listen, just go back to where you came from.

Don't pretend to be this ideal boy with me.

I beg you, just go.

That's what you came to do.

Go to mom and dad and complain.

At least mix water in your drink.

Okay. Goodnight.

You must memorize it within one minute, okay?

Why are you looking at my face? Memorize it at once.

Are you going to take this long?

Ma'am!

Ma'am, you gave Kanha five out of ten for the last question.

Actually, his answer is wrong. In fact, my answer is wrong too.

But you gave me zero marks. That's cheating, ma'am.

I cheated? Did I?

Kanha, show him your answer sheet.

Look at it, carefully.

Kanha's answer may be wrong, but he tried, right?

He has written down every single step.

And writing the steps gets you marks too. Don't you know?

Those who try do get points for it.

Does that make sense to you? Give it back to him.

Hold your ears.

Now tell me.

Who will eat buttered fritters made by me?

Akash, ma'am.

Ma'am, I can eat them.

Shut up!

Balloons! Heart shaped balloons!

Heart shaped balloons!

Heart shaped balloons!

What's this, brother? All alone even in a place like this?

-Here, take a heart shaped balloon. -I don't want it.

Who knows? You might find someone to give it to.

-What are you saying? -Someone who'll give you her heart!

Take it. It is selling fast in the market.

No! Don't give me that. The other one without a heart shape...

Here you are.

-How much? -Rs. 20.

Here you are.

Balloons! Heart shaped balloons!

Ma'am!

Oh man!

This is worse than the heart shaped ones. Wait...

Listen, mister!

-Excuse me! Hey-- -Shekhar?

Hi, Ridhima.

Why did you call me here?

I...

I don't know, man! I am so sorry.

We'd been coming since childhood so there was an image in my mind.

Anyway, now that this place is a Lover's point so...

I am so embarrassed! I am so sorry.

Stupid.

Shall we go?

So?

How does it feel?

Turning down a job you bagged?

I don't know.

Well

my instincts tell me this is correct.

But, I fear that my decision may prove to be wrong.

That's all.

Shekhar, three months ago my company was sending me to Hyderabad.

For a project, as a lead.

I could have shifted out there.

I had a chance to get out of here.

Why didn't you leave?

Actually, I found out later of a more deserving candidate than me.

Suparna.

And she didn't get this job since she was married

and I am divorced.

No husband, no kids. No baggage in my case.

You know, I've heard a lot after I got divorced.

She is such a debauched girl! She could not have kids.

She could not keep her husband happy.

She must be having an affair.

I listened to all of that and I ignored it.

When I found out that Suparna didn't

get this job due to her marital status.

I felt, I can't benefit from the same system.

It was a difficult decision, but...

it was right for me.

Actually, I don't know, just...

It's so shocking that all this is still happening so commonly!

You know it's funny how most guys react to

workplace sexism as if they don't know it happens.

I didn't mean to say that, I mean...

And they get defensive at once when one points it out.

No, I am just trying to...

You...

Heck.

So, this is it.

Bangalore in two weeks.

Yeah, that's great.

But you won't come.

Why won't I come?

Of course, I will come.

Once I get a good job then...

Then?

Then...

Then?

It's a hectic life, getting tired is forbidden.

That's it.

What else?

You will get tired.

What did you say?

Nothing.

Helpless woman, are you flirting with me?

Since 9th grade, Mr. Dwivedi.

Hey, that's Suruchi, isn't it?

She has grown so big.
