"Only to pay for my studies" "The buck stops just in time when it's my turn" "The money was there forJai before he could ask" "Jagadish, I never discriminated between you and Jai" "I still haven't been able to repay what I borrowed forJai's education" "Wouldn't make a difference to borrow another 200,000 for my education" "It will make a difference!" "But I'm not refusing you" "I'm only asking for time." "In a day or two... once Jai has signed his service bond, all our problems are solved" "No" "I've worked out another way to solve all our problems" "Sell this house" "Sell the house and all our problems are automatically taken care of" "Yours, Om's and mine." " I didn't send you to America... to lose your values." "Talk of selling the house?" "Ma has spent a lifetime here" "The souls of my father, my grandfather rest here" "I respect your feelings." "But that's your way of thinking, not mine" "Why is America on the ascent?" "People over there don't think like you" "What's this America-America about?" "A short stay changes your attitude?" "With time, everything must change" "Dispositions, demeanours and dwellings" "What are you saying, Jai?" "Quiet!" "Why?" "Before This place was built... our ancestors must've lived elsewhere." "Given our disposition... would our house ever been built?" " Please, don't fight" "I don't want 200,000." "I'll take the course later" "No Jagadish, the mistake was mine!" "For him, this is a house." "Not home" "I sent him away to boarding school to give him a good education" "I sent him to America, to make a man out of him." "He never stayed at home" "He can't comprehend what a home means" "You're being sentimental for no reason" "But maybe you are against progress." "After you've given me an education... you want me to sign an 8-year bond!" "Aren't you impeding my growth?" "For 200,000 aren't you impeding Jagadish's career?" "How does it matter if we sell this?" "In your place, I would've sold it" "This house was Daddy's dream." "Om has made sacrifices to preserve it" "Jagadish, am I impeding your progress?" "Am I against Jai making progress?" "This is the India, where son fulfills his father's dream!" "He forgets" "When he lights his father's pyre the son takes the vow of... fulfilling his father's obligations and that is what I'm trying to do" "I know, you do not concur with me." "But can I tell you something?" "I do not concur with your philosophy" "I have great respect for you, my brother" "I hate carelessness." "No, if you can't handle it... why didn't you tell me?" "No I can't discuss this now." "I'll call later" "What would you like?" "Tea, coffee...?" "Ms Tanya, you wanted to buy my house." "Of course, I remember" "I have still preserved this cheque" "How many more zeros will you add?" "Sorry" "I must sell my house, else my family will break up" "Are you still interested in buying my house?" "Had you not sold it already I'd love to buy it out" "Had I not sold it...?" "I don't understand" "Mr Batra, your house is no longer your property" "You've sold it already" "To whom...?" "To my fiance" "If you're interested, you can see the papers" "Take a look..." "your signatures, aren't they?" "Yes... these are receipts I wrote out when I borrowed money from Shekhar" "Yes." "But you mortgaged your house when you took the loan, didn't you?" "How did these papers reach you?" "Shekhar is my fiance." "And your house is my wedding gift" "Don't tell me you want to make a singer out of Tanya" "She can't sing." "All she knows is how to make money" "Shekhar, you deceived me...?" "What deception...?" "I never imagined!" "For the money you were grabbing my house" "As long as I was giving, I was a god?" "And now I'm a cheating scoundrel?" "As long as you're a do-yooder, everything's hunky dory... as long as I deny myself, as long as I give away millions... without a word!" "Am I to apologise because I'm rich, moneyed?" "Mr Om is saying nothing of the sort." "Why are you getting upset?" "I'm upset because I considered him my friend" "He's more than a brother to me" "And he says I have deceived him?" "Well all right, I have deceived you" "Why don't you return my money?" "Why not prove that love is stronger than money?" "The three of you, Om, Jai and Jagadish" "Come on, get together!" "Pay me back" "Else, vacate your house in 48 hours." "I'm going to get a court order" "And don't come to work from tomorrow onwards" "They will vacate the house." "You told me, they're men of word" "Papa, Uncle Jai is leaving" "Brother..." "Yes Jai...?" "I want to talk to you." "You are returning?" "Yes, I'm leaving" "If I don't leave, there will be a big problem" "Do you have your green card?" "I have it" "But I might lose my job." "You got my go-ahead" "Besides, what can you achieve living in this country?" "Go away" "At every step lies deceit, friends will stab you in the back" "Oh, my room is downstairs" "Leave, as soon as you can." "You have my consent" "I'll send money." " That won't be needed" "No, I will send money" "Anil Khanna." "I'm the principal in the college Jagadish goes to" "I know." "We would like To see his room" "The principal." "He wants to see Jagadish" "What is the matter...?" " I don't know" "Sir... you...?" "We must check your computer" "What is your password?" "Why sir...?" "He wants to know your password" "Saraswati." "What...?" "Saraswati." "Our mother's name" "Our suspicion is true." "The papers were stolen by Jagadish's computer" "Atul..." "Did Jagadish use this computer to give you the question papers?" "Why did you have to do this?" "Someone tell me what he has done." " I'll tell you Mrs Batra" "Jagadish used his computer... just like a burglar who enters homes and steals" "But this is thievery of the educated, done for easy money" "Mrs Batra, I might report him to the police." "But I haven't the heart" "But he will never gain admission into any university." "That's his punishment" "He will never find employment in any computer company" "His future..." "I'm very sorry." "But Why did he steal?" "Whatever the reason might've been only Jagadish can tell" "You have betrayed my faith in you!" "Not you, all of us bear the punishment" "How much money did you make out of selling papers?" "Even you think I'd do such a thing?" "I was just helping a friend" "At least you'd understand that, I learnt it only from you" "Learnt from me?" "What?" "Thieving?" "What am I?" "A thief?" "Helping friends!" "Is this how you help friends?" "By robbing?" "You haven't a degree, you have no future." "You're ruined" "You are a thief!" "I am a thief's brother." "And that's the truth" "You will achieve nothing in life" "Jai was my weakness, you were my strength" "But today, you make me weak." "You have left me crippled" "Jagadish, my son..." "Mamma, where have Uncle Jai and Uncle Jagadish gone away?" "They have gone out for a while, they're going to be back" "Don't lie to the child" "Om... my son, this house is rooted on rock-solid foundation" "Jai and Jagadish will be back." "Surely" "Only if we have this house." "What does that mean?" "As of now, this house belongs to Shekhar Malhotra" "What...?" " I borrowed forJai's education" "Then I couldn't repay." "Now he has claimed this house" "Joys you have always shared" "Will you keep your sorrows to yourself?" "Why...?" "Because he is Om and he wishes to become a god among men" "High time that you thought about yourself, my son" "When must we leave this house?" "Tomorrow morning" "Rita, they're married." "Let them take their decisions in life" "Like her decision about getting married" "Mamma, I'm happy I married Jai." " Great!" "I'm elated" "Your mother will never change" "Work with their research teams?" "Give up my claim to my design?" "Then don't." "But what will you do?" "Think it over once again Jai" "Are you making a mistake?" "Grave mistake" "Will you go back to India and prove that Om was right and we were wrong?" "I'm not going back to India" "I came to this city because this is a midway place." "Not fast like Mumbai" "Nor slow, like our Satna." "As of now, I'm working in Pizza Hut" "But someday, I'll build myself a fast food chain" "So I got to find myself a job soon." "Yes, I talked up a computer firm" "They order pizzas from us."

"One thing for Sure" "If we're thieves, you're a thief too" "Grandma, why have we left our home?" "Why have we come here?" "It was too large a house for so few of us" "Grandma, I don't like it here" "If you and Arnav would like to live with your Daddy for a while... now that he has school holidays...?" "Are you trying to send me away?" "Like you sent Jai and Jagadish away?" "I've no qualms about living with you." "I value your sense of integrity" "Om, I can put up with everything but I can't bear to see you sad" "Papa, I'm ready" "Papa, where are we going?" "To see Uncle Ramprasad" "Uncle Ramprasad..." " Ramprasad, it's me" "Stay back." " Why don't you understand?" "He knows me" "The Minister for Culture has invited me to sing at his son's wedding" "Well, what brings you here?"
