"five!" "five!" "Greetings, sire." " May you be happy" "Please take a look at my grandson's horoscope and predict his future" "Certainly" "Let me see your forehead" "The lines on his forehead make it so obvious... that the fury of Jupiter, the Sun, Mars and Saturn will rule his life" "They will dominate his life totally!" "Should he be provoked by someone... this boy will certainly not spare him" "What should we name him?" "Sameer." "A gust of cool breeze." " Sameer...?" "By nature, he's hot-headed." "The name will keep him calm" "Come to me, come..." "Guess what?" "Don't ever make the mistake of getting him married" "There you are!" "He has kicked me!" "As he grows up, he'll use his fists and kicks more than his mouth!" "I'm not sparing you!" "I'm not sparing you!" "never!" "Sameer!" "Let him go!" "leave him alone!" "C'mon, Sameer!" "Come with me!" "Sameer, why did you raise your hand at the Principal?" "When I lose my temper... it feels as if a hundred guitars are playing in my brains!" "Now tell me something." "Why did you hit Chintu?" "I was angry because he abused you!" "Sameer, my mother says, anger is love's worst enemy" "One who can't control his temper, can't control anything in his lifetime" "Now stop being angry and smile." "Smile!" "So you won't smile...?" "I'll set your mood right in a moment" "The insolent!" " Go topless" "Those with iron pajamas..." " have an ape for an Uncle!" "Whose aunts are cats..." " have dogs for friends!" "When it comes to the pickle..." " They hug, buddy!" "Sameer gets into a fight with someone or the other every day... and today, he raised his hands on me!" "The Principal!" "So much of anger is not good, Ma'am." "It's Arun who always calms him down" "He was born with the temper." "How will I explain...?" "ever since his parents have died, his temper is getting worse and worse I understand, ma'am." "And that is why I'm not throwing him out of the school" "But I'm really worried. lf this is how Sameer Malhotra's childhood is... how is his adolescence going to be?" "So these three fractures and the 36 stitches... is it all your doing?" " Yes, sir. I'Ve thrashed them" "But you must ask them why I hit them" "There's this girl Sameer wants to marry... and these guys were treating her like a ball in the basket!" "In 1998, you beat up a professor in the college?" "He didn't have any time to teach the boys" "But he used to call the girls home all alone and gave them tuitions" "He had evil on his mind." "So I gave it to him!" "What wrong did I do?" "In the year 2000, you rescued a man who was drowning... and gave him a beating?" " l was the one who saved him too!" "There was a board which said in bold letters, Swimming is forbidden" "Why did he go there?" "I gave it to him... what wrong did I do?" "Look, we have received eight complaints.." "..against you in the last five years" "You might get more lf l receive another complaint, you're going straight to jail!" "Roma...?" "You'Ve got married?" "Don't be angry today." "Please don't hit someone I'll..." " No, wait here" "There's no saying when he might hit someone" "You think I'll hit you?" "Why?" "How can I hit you?" "I..." "And I thought you..." "Did you think I'd marry you?" " Yes" "have you ever told me that you love me?" " No" "And look at him." "He's so sweet, so gentle... he loves me so much." "And you..." "Now listen to me." "No girl can ever fall in love with you" "She can only be afraid of you." " Why?" "You have such a temper, even I'm afraid of you" "Remember how you thrashed those boys at the basketball court, Sameer?" "But they had made a mistake." "They had to be punished" "every human being makes a mistake." "What if I had made a mistake?" "You'd have hit me too, isn't it?" "Isn't it true?" "Let's go" "Sameer, are you really going away?" " Yes, grandma I'Ve got the job of a lifeguard in Goa. lt's a nice job" "Besides, I get into a lot of fights here, grandma lf l go to a new place and meet new people, I might not get into fights" "My son, think again before you go" "The reason behind the fights is your temper" "Your temper will go with you wherever you go" "Yes, brother. lf you leave, I'll be worried about you all the time" "You're the one I'll worry about." "I'Ve got to get you educated and married I'Ve got to have an operation conducted on grandma's eyes... and send her to grandpa in heaven at the earliest I'm not going away in a hurry." "He'll have to wait!" "But before you leave, you'll have to promise me... that you won't get into fights and brawls with anyone ls that clear, my son?" "Grandma, I swear it on your head I'll never lose my temper again" "One, two... is that your luggage, mister?" "Also this bag?" "Four...?" "Four bags?" "Yes" "Which is THE bag?" "I mean, the bag in which you're carrying the cash and Valuables...?" "Terrible times, you see." "You could easily be robbed" "Robberies are commonplace in trains nowadays" "Difficult to tell the bonafide passenger from the thief!" "Go to sleep. I'll stay awake." " l'm not sleepy" "Mister, this period between 3 and 5 in the morning... is meant to be spent in slumber." "however strong a man is... he does drift into it at least once I want to see when you go to sleep." " l told you, I'm not sleepy" "All right." "Actually, I loVe my forty winks I'm going to sleep" "Yes, grandma, I'Ve reached safely." "Okay..." "Thank you, mister." " What for?" "For looking after my luggage I'll explain. I haVe a weakness." "I can't stay awake in the night" "And I can't sleep in the train, for fear of losing my luggage... and that is why, I pulled off the fast one" "So that I could go to sleep and you'd look after my luggage." "Nice idea, eh?" "Know what ?" "You're a great guy I think I must travel with you on my way back too" "Here's my card." "Phone me on this number, I'll find you at the station" "Help me, grandma!" "Praise the Lord..." "Lord, protect my grandson wherever he is" "Lord, help Sameer find his love" "Lord!" "You...?" " Yes. I'm Raj." "He's Paul" "Our misfortune, we're brothers." "Twins I'm an astrologer who predicts people's future from their birthcharts... and he ruins their future!" "What does your brother do?" " He belongs to the Eagle gang..." "Very dangerous people." "never cross their path" "never." " You appear to be a stranger in town" "Whom are you Visiting?" " Mr Duggal" "Mr Duggal!" " Yes, he has a Vacant room" "Not just a room, his brains are empty too" "He used to be a police inspector in Goa... and has blood clotted in his head ever since.." "..a thief struck him with a stick" "wherever the clot stands, that part becomes useless" "He plays deaf, dumb and blind" "Let's see what he's playing today" "He's playing blind today I don't believe this!" " You will, Very soon" "That's Mr Duggal!" "But he's looking at me." " No, you're looking at him" "Let me show you." "Wait" "Rascals!" "You hit me because I'm blind today?" "When I start seeing again, none of you will be seen around here again!" "Do you believe it now?" "Wait a moment I'm glad you're here." "I haVen't had any tea" "give me half a litre of milk ls the milk over, Bansi?" "I'm not Bansi. I'm Sameer ." "I'm sorry, I thought you were the milkman" "When did the headlights go off?" "How does that concern you?" "You're not a doctor, are you?" "give me the milk." " But I'm not a milkman... I'm Raj, the astrologer!" " The astrologer!" "Such a big mouth!" " lt's not my mouth. lt's a bag" "And here is your mouth!" " Let me be, please!" "What brings you here...?" " l'm the one who came here I'Ve landed a job at the beach resort." "Mr Sharma has had a word with you" "For the room, isn't it?" "Come, I'll take you to your room I'll show you to your room" "Go upstairs from here." "Your room is right ahead." "Go on" "There's no room there!" " No?" "But I saw it last night." "Did it disappear overnight?" "Hello." " You're showing him the wrong place" "The room is over there!" " Where?" "Here!" "Come with me." " You're throwing me out...?" "We're actually going in!" "I'll check out the room later." "Let's talk about the rent first I can pay you 2500 at the most." " l'll collect at least 5000 rupees!" "It's okay if you agree." "Or you may leave..." "Hey!" "It's me!" " Why do you keep butting in?" "give him half the room for 2500." "Find another tenant for the other half ls Bansi staying with you too?" " But I'm not Bansi!" "Don't be angry." "give me half a litre of milk" "But I'm not the milkman!" "I'm Raj... the astrologer!" "So what are you doing here?" "Go and look up people's horoscopes" "Show Sameer the room." "Come, Sameer... lt's me!" "Where's Sameer?" " Here I am, sir" "C'mon" "For my grandma's eyesight" "For my sister's education" "For my sister's marriage" "Lord, it's Your responsibility to have an operation.." "..conducted on grandma's eyes" "My sister's education and her marriage is also Your responsibility" "Fill up the coffers at the earliest, please" "And okay, it's my responsibility to make offerings to You at the temple" "O beautiful one..." "Come to me" "Has Mr Duggal asked you to come and go through the balcony, brother?" "No." " Not your mistake, though" "whoever stays in that house, does take a fall in his lifetime lt's because of the sight ahead." " You're right" "And I wish you keep doing this to me every day I feel so nice today!" "You...?" "Already here to pick me up?" "I told you to call up and come" "No, I can't go with you so early." "Okay, do something" "Look around Goa for a couple of days, then we'll leave together" "Who is he?" " Our new manager" "He'll kill me!" "You sent for me, sir?" "Are you Suraj?" " No" "Suraj Prakash."

"Sleep is man's worst weakness" "And the time between 3 and 5 is the most Vulnerable one lf l see your shoulders droop at that time, you are off the roster I get it" "Mr Sameer" "When did you get this motorbike?" " My company gave it to me today" "No, you got it yesterday." " Today" "You're talking about the motorbike, I'm talking about your eyes" "You clapped your eyes on Rani yesterday, right?" "Rani?" "Who?" "I'm watching the kids play" "Really?" "I'm a gifted astrologer I'Ve seen your horoscope." "Let me introduce you to Rani" "Else, you will keep falling off your window I'm a priest of love." "Because of us priests, two hearts meet... a family is made, new babies are born.." "... there's no greater joy than this" "Her father, the colonel, is a strict man, I hear" "He's retired." "He may be pulled up any time" "He won't find a better son-in-law." " never" "He's going to embrace you in the first meeting itself" "Bye ls Ms Rani cross with you?" " No" "Then why is she going that way?" "Yes, priest?" " Please come here" "She's coming" "Once you guys shake hands.." "..it won't take much time for your hearts to meet" "Come..."

"..but he won't spend more than 25 bucks" "Anyway... this is my childhood friend Sameer" "Not that we met in childhood..." "the two of us met as adults" "She's Rani" "Sameer is a lifeguard, and Rani is a fashion designer" "Won't you shake hands?" "Can't you take care of your kid?" "What happened?" " A flat tyre?" "No, someone got smacked" "Who?" " Daddy!" "What an introduction!" "Who slapped him?" "It sounded like an explosion" "Are you all right, Papa?" " Don't ask me, dear lt feels as if someone hammered a hot nail into my ear" "You shouldn't have hit him so hard." "This boy is naughty" "Thank God the colonel applied the brakes in time and saved him" "Are you in your senses?" "How dare you hit my Papa?" "I didn't know he was your father." "And that kid..." "What kid?" "Her mother is here, there are so many people around... but they didn't utter a word!" "You wanted to be a hero, eh?" "Stop fighting and take him to a doctor, quick" "Conductor?" "I need a doctor, dammit!" " That's where we're going" "He's gone deaf!" "What have you done?" "You were to ask Rani's hand from him and you just handed it out to him" "Who is Rani, sir?" "You?" "Are you working day and night?" "No sir. I just came to request you" "Please be kind enough and turn my bad nights into good nights, sir" "What for?" " Because after office hours... when I go home and shut the doors and windows to catch a wink... the kids around assemble outside my house and scream together..." "The matinee show begins now" "And my wife takes it out on the kids saying, No shows of late" "Sir, my honour is at stake" "All right." "give me some time to think" "Really?" "How much time?" " Say, a month or two" "What?" " When will my duty hours change?" "Three months after that" "Who is this Rani, sir?"

"Let me go" "Don't harass me" "Sweetheart, so much... of attitude is bad" "Youth is short" "The rest of life is no good" "My love, enjoy... every moment" "What you have, is in the present" "Tomorrow never comes I think you are crazy" "You and I don't sail in the same boat I can't just... stop following you" "Youth is short" "The rest of life is no good" "Once... once it's gone... youth never returns" "Thank God you're here." "I was really worried" "What for?" "Aren't we friends now?" "Yeah, but your father hasn't forgiven me yet" "When things go wrong in the beginning, it all falls in place in the end I don't get it." "Please explain I mean, I'Ve brought Papa around and he has called you over for dinner" "Really?" "Look, he's an army officer who is Very punctual" "You will be there at nine sharp I'll be there at eight." " No way." "Neither early, nor late" "You look Very happy." "Tommy's sister says, see you at home... as if you're going home to become Tommy's brother-in-law" "But to impress Tommy's father, don't forget to buy champagne for him" "And, you must uncork it at one go!" "is it Sameer?" " Yes, sir" "Come on in." " Actually sir, I'Ve come to apologise I committed a mistake the other day." "Please forgive me I'Ve forgiven you, that is why you are standing before me" "lovely dog" "He's Tommy, not a dog" "He's like my son." "Remember" "Sit" "I'm from Patiala, Punjab." " Really?" "My uncle was in the army" "Once I took his gun and ran to the fields, for some shooting practice" "Enraged, he snatched the gun... and said, lt's an official gun I was so peeved that I joined the army... and I got my own gun" "A few years later, war for independence broke out in Goa" "They posted me here in Goa" "After the war, I settled here with my family" "Luckily, I loVe Goa" "Luckily, I loVe Goa too" "What do they call a chicken in Punjab?" " Kukdi" "And a girl?" " Kudi" "Those medals... did you win them, sir?" "My wife wasn't in the army, so obviously they belong to me" "Actually sir, your personality unsettles me" "That's why I'm talking like a fool" "never mind" "And that Chinese pot near the medals... looks like an antique piece, does it contain Chinese tea?" "It contains my late mother's ashes" "It gives me a feeling that I always have her blessings with me" "You dearly loved your mother." " l still love her" "We tried really hard to save her" "But what God wills..." " Let it be, Papa" "Let's eat" "Why did you have to bring that, son?" "It's my first time here." " Let me uncork it" "No, sir." "Let me have the pleasure" "And to you, beautiful lady" "What have you done?" "What have you done?" "Shut up!" "It all happened because of you" "Because of me, really?" " You asked me to uncork it at one go I asked you to open the bottle, not to break the pot of ashes" "Good that the pot broke." "At least it has set his mother's soul free" "I think the colonel is insane" "Oh no... he's a Very intelligent man lntelligent, my foot!" "Mother's ashes ought to be immersed in the Ganges" "No one keeps it at home." "never in a pot, at that!" "It's okay, we'll talk later." " Let me clear this now" "Please try to see it from my point of View" "Why don't you try to see it from my point of View?" "have you seen the colonel?" "He looks as if he grew old twenty years back" "Look at his wife... as if she has just stepped into youth" "Tell me, from what angle does Rani look like the colonel's daughter?" "Yeah, Tommy does appear to be his son I can't explain that." "You should be asking the person concerned" "Who?" " Rani" "The colonel would never reveal the secret to Rani" "The other day I spared you because it was only a mistake" "But today, you intentionally..." "You hit my Papa on his face... still I forgave you." "But today you'Ve hurt me in the heart" "Can you explain?" " Rani..." "Did you intend to say that my father didn't sire me?" "No!" " That my mother is wanton?" "No!" "It was tough convincing myself that you are a nice person" "And you, priest!" "I'm really surprised" "How could you consider such a lowly man a friend?" "Let alone respect someone, he hardly knows what respect means" "See?" "She is hurt because of you!" " Because of me, really?" "I was only kidding." "When you knew Rani was standing behind me... why didn't you tell me?" " l was telling you... see from my point of View!" " Your language is too tough for me" "For all the mistakes you commit, you pass the buck on to me!" "God!" "Ball?" "What happened?" " A flat tyre?" "No, someone got thrashed" "Who?" " Papa!" "Granny!" "I'm ill-fated, it's writ." "Reading my horoscope won't turn things around" "Just checking what's worse is in store." " What...?" "Your past was your golden period." " Golden period, really?" "Yes." "Your future is worse." " Worse than what I'm going through?" "Jupiter's place is right up here." "Yours is down in hell" "The Moon's place is in the 7th house." "Yours is homeless" "moreover, Saturn is about to enter" "You said, Saturn left me last week." " And it did" "Usually, once it leaves, Saturn never returns for another seven years" "Not in your case." "Saturn is about to re-enter in a few seconds time" "Right, anything is possible with me." " Saturn is on its way" "And it will wreck me." " This Saturn is going to... change your life and destiny." "It will come like a tempest" "What say, dude?" "He's going to steal the princess away" "As per my calculations, it will stay with you in your room... and knock at Rani's door" "Hello uncle" "Hello, I say." "Remember me?" "I'm your distant relative." "Sunny" "For miles away, uncle has no relatives." "Go away" "Uncle, your servant is ill-mannered." "Ask him not to mess with me" "Why is he so quiet?" " Not that he is glad to remain quiet" "He's ailing." " Shut up" "Uncle, I'm Sunny." "Mr Khurana's son" "Who..." "Khur... ana?" "Who Khurana?" " Back in Gurudaspur... this road in front of your house..." " There's one.." "..in front of every house it turns around the corner." " They all turn." "No road is straight" "And where does it go?" "Straight to his friend's house" "Friend?" "Who?" " Mr Khosla" "He just said Khurana!" " How smart!" "You caught me I was only testing you." "Know what?" "When I asked your address... everyone said there's only one decent and honest boy in Goa." "You" "Boy...?" "What a fraud!" "Tell me honestly, why are you here?" " Well, I... want to hire a room" "No, he says." "Go away" "No way, get lost, he says." "Look, he's pissed off" "Now tell me." " Stay here" "Well, now that you are dumb, you won't pick up a fight" "So let's go to my relative's place." " relative, aunt?" "Then who am I?" "Who are you?" " Sunny" "Not Sunny, he's Shani (Saturn)." " Shut up, dude" "Uncle, for my sake don't tell aunt where l come from" "Well, uncle himself doesn't know where he comes from" "Aunt, I'm a tenant here." "Here's 10,000 bucks" "Take another 9,999... take care I'm a bit tired." "Show me to my room, please" "Let me see you off at the next street." " Ass!" ".." "..Hold this." "Bring it upstairs" "Oldie's got a nice room." " Yes" "But we are sharing it" "What are you staring at me for?" " Why share?" "We'll be exchanging beds" "We'll also sleep in the same bed, as brothers..." "Don't touch me. I don't like it" "Like the rent, we share the room too." "This side is yours, that's mine" "All right, give me a hug." " No!" "I don't hug men." " Really?" "How Vain" "whatever." " Okay listen... why don't you take your God there?" " God doesn't belong to one person" "God belongs to everyone." "And listen, we'Ve shared the room... not the walls." "God's not moving." " And where do I stick my posters?" "wherever you wish." "God's not moving I got an idea." "Stick them up in the bathroom" "Why do you get so angry?" " Am I angry?" "Now!" "even while you are talking." " Yeah, where am I angry?" "Look, the room's got hot." "Need to open the window" "Don't open the window!" "Why?" " She comes there I need to check her out then." "Since I pay half the rent... I'll open half the window" "You're on my half, let me embrace you!" " Don't piss me off!" "I tried my best to keep him off" "What a sight!" "Mr Sameer deliberately kept the door shut to keep me off" "But smelling a scent from a distance is my forte" "What a dish!" " Don't you say that!" "Does she mean anything to you?" " No." "But decent folks stay here" "By the way she is a nice and decent girl" "And she's a colonel's daughter." "He will shoot you if he hears you" "For a beauty like her, I'd take a bullet on my chest" "On my chest idiotic!" "Don't you jump!" " Why not?" "You are in bad times, as it is" "For all your good intentions, you might fall on top of the colonel" "He's going in." " No." "As per my calculations..." "Tommy will have a go at him" "He's gone inside." " Not to worry." "My calculations say... the colonel will kick him out in a minute" "What's your name?" " Tommy" "Nice name." "My respects, uncle" "Who are you?" "What do you want?" " l just wanted to meet you, uncle I'm new here. I'm told that you are the only.." "..decent and honest boy around" "Boy?" " What else?" "Look at you" "You can put any young man to shame." "Besides... hang on." "What's that in your ears?" "And what's around your neck, bro?" "Don't ask me." "My blood boils when I think of it" "Screwed my calculations!" "What are you doing?" " Worry not. I haVe fixed many bones" "And it's only a sprain." "Look straight... here goes" "What say?" "How do you feel?" "Be honest." " Feels nice" "Where are you staying?" " At your neighbour Mr Duggal's place" "The one who broke my neck also stays there" "Don't be angry. I'm his roommate." "I know he's ill-mannered... and he'll surely change, but this is not how one should treat an elder" "A ball hit me, by mistake" "Darling, what's happening?" "When did you employ a masseur?" "From today." " Oh no, he's not a masseur, darling" "Sunny is a nice boy" "He's Mr Duggal's tenant." " l see" "Tell you something, massage is not actually done indoors" "A garden, or an open terrace would be just amazing" "We have a terrace garden." " Don't tell me." "Really?" "Where?" "Upstairs." " Can I check it out?" "Sure" "Did he swallow something?" "He's dancing ... advancing towards the girl" "Damn... your loVe-story began here and ended in the colonel's ears" "He began it by shaking hands, and it's going to end in honeymoon" "Sir, do something." "Please do something to me" "What do I do to you?" " l want a baby" "give me a baby, please!" " What...?" "What are you doing here?" " You!" "What are you doing here?" "You know her?" " She is my wife" "Don't you have children?" " Yes, two in fact" "Boys, both." "And you know what these boys are like I want a daughter." " So why me?" "Ask him" "Listen... please" "What?" " He promised to give me a daughter" "After duty hours, he used to get me sweets and flowers... and shut the doors and windows" "But ever since you put him on the night shift... the doors and windows only shut to allow him get a good day's sleep lt's a mistake but a mistake is a mistake" "You must also have committed a mistake, by mistake, no?" "Yes, you are right" "And I can understand your problem." "I'll definitely help you" "Hang on" "From tomorrow, you will buy her sweets and flowers every day" "What the...?" "Get up" "Was I wrong?" "500 for grandma, 500 for my sister's studies... 500 for her marriage, and 500..." "For my roommate" "What a sight!" "It's worth paying a hundred thousand in rent" "What are you upto?" " Watching the colonel" "Really?" " Wanna check?" "That's his daughter" "Do they look alike?" "No way!" "And what are you drinking?" "Water." " Really?" "I swear by you." " l see." "Go on" "Let me smell it... is this water?" "Fenny is Goa's speciality. lt's nothing but cashewnut juice I see. I'll juice you!" "I'm going to tell Mr Duggal that you are boozing here" "Listen..." "Don't touch me." " l won't booze anymore, promise" "All right." " One last swig" "What's that?" " Oh, those?" "Your God's on my wall, so I glued my goddesses to your wall" "So why get angry?" " l'm not angry" "You are peeved." " l'm not" "Relax... easy" "You feel like abusing me." " Not at all I know, you want to tell me something." " No" "You want to hit me." "Go on, hit me." " No" "C'mon, hit me." " Oh no" "Why don't you go to your half?" " Okay." "Peace" "Peace" "What was that?" "Earthquake?" "Mr Duggal, where did you pick that roommate from?" "He boozes, and... watches Rani through his binoculars, You must go and inform the colonel" "Oh, why would you inform the colonel?" "The ass has stuffed you with money" "Rather I'll go and inform him" "Mr Duggal..." "looks like he's deaf today" "He's deaf" "Young man, my neck feels better now" "Hello aunt." " Do something to my ear" "Let me fix your neck first." "Fixing the ear is no big deal lt will be all right." "Where's Rani?" "See, Rama?" "Though they share the same room, they are poles apart" "That swine injures me, and the other... the decent one, comes home everyday to give me a massage" "Hush, Tommy" "Sameer is not around, then who is Tommy barking at?" "Dogs have a Very sharp memory, uncle" "Tommy must be barking at Sameer's thoughts" "Where's Rani?" "Bloody dog!" "Guess what?" "You look so happy." "What gives?" " This year, the All India..." "Fashion Designers' competition is going to be held in Goa" "The designs I had sent have been approved" "And I'm participating this year!" "Papa, I got to pay the entry fees within two days." "Only 20,000 Rupees" "Let her have it. I'll return every cent after marriage 20,000?" "No dear, I can't afford that much" "Please Papa, for my sake. lt's Very important for my career" "Golden opportunities don't knock twice." "give her the money" "Where's the money, son?" "I'm a retired colonel" "We manage with my pension." "Where do I get 20,000 from?" "Selfish father" "You upset her" "Expenses have already risen this month. 1 2,000 for the hearing aid 3000 for my neck-collar." "Where do I get 20,000 from?" "Why won't you give her?"

"Let it go" "What's that?" "Dearest Rani, I know you want to become a famous fashion designer I'm sending you money... to help you cross the first hurdle in the path of your progress" "Not a favour, just consider it as a gift from a friend" "And, if you win the show... you will be happy, but my happiness will be greater than yours I expect nothing in return for this small help."

"You are blind now, I'll talk to you in the morning" "Makes no difference. I'Ve been blind since morning" "Don't mind the poor fellow." "Here, grab your bottle" "Here you are." " See?" "That's a tenant" "And you never treated me even to a cup of tea" "He's helping me live it up, you know." " Where is he taking you?" "Oh, I forgot!" "We got to meet Bijli!" "Let's go" "Come on."

"Entertainment tax is a government policy." "everybody knows that lf you don't pay by evening, you cannot do the show tomorrow" "Why can't she?" "She is my Rani" "Don't weep... please don't" "You will do the show I promise you, you will do the show" "Sis, I just heard that the government says... it's illegal to get a girl married before she turns 21" "Which means you have three more years to go, sis" "And your sister-in-law has only three days" "Why don't you concentrate on your studies for the next three years?" "Shall I break the pot?" "Thank you, dear sister" "Still short of 5000!" "I'm seriously stressed now" "You got to help me now, God" "That was for my sister's studies!"

"everything you'Ve done is good I'Ve heard it all Sameer." "That which you tried to say... and also that which you didn't say." "You did so much for me... and didn't even let me know?" "You shall pine at heart, my love... by God, you too shall fall in love" "At heart, I shall desire you too" "by God, I hope I fall in love too" "You're charming... you're my love, you're my romance I'm bowled over... yes, I acknowledge that I know, your love is full of mischief" "But I can't help it, my heart just won't agree" "How I wish I rule your heart" "By God, may you fall in love too" "They call me beautiful, they call me the proud one... and you'Ve gone crazy; you have no control over your heart I'm no less crazy. I'm not conceding defeat I'm here to steal your heart, and steal it, I will" "How I wish I begin to trust you" "By God, I hope I fall in love too" "May you begin to pine at heart" "By God, may you fall in love too" "God!"

"Sunny, don't be shy, have some more." "Eat to your fill" "The milk reminds me of home" "This is your home too." " Absolutely" "We can't ever forget what you have done for our Rani" "And you didn't even let me know." " Ma always says... your left hand must not know what your right hand does" "Hear that?" "Such lofty ideals!" " Pickles!" "I don't know where they are" "Not pickles, ideals, darling." " ideals, I see" "They are poles apart." "One is an angel while the other is a demon" "The more distance l keep from him, the closer he gets to deal a blow" "With a football, when I'm at home." "With a bottle, when I'm outside" "When I'm walking on the footpath.." "..he calls me in the middle of the road... and rams his motorbike into me" "Be careful." "Say it again, Sameer" "Colonel, I'm sorry, I'Ve been a bloody fool" "Accept these flowers and please forgive me" "Okay, I forgive you" "Where does the Colonel get his Voice?" " God knows" "Where did he transpire from?" "Wake up!" "We are here" "Who is this sleepy character?" " A security guard" "He tried to mess with me, I put him on a three-months' night shift" "No wonder he brings his wife to make an appeal to you" "Uncle!" "How are you, dear niece?" " You'Ve pulled down!" "Can't tell you what I'Ve been through" "Rani's uncle?" "This man could'Ve been your Cupid... but you'Ve already plunged him into the darkness" "Brother-in-law, you are wrapped all over in bandages?" "What happened?" "Sunny, he is my wife's brother" "Swine!" "Where have you been all this while?" "Brother, I'm cross with you." "We live in the same city, yet... you haVen't been here for months." " What city, sister?" "I don't even get to see my wife." " What does that mean?" "This new manager, the swine, has put me on night shift since two months" "He sleeps during the daytime, and stays up like an owl during the nights" "He's suffering from constipation and acidity" "Look at the dark circles below his eyes" "That's fine, but who's that scoundrel?" "That's fine, but who are you?" " Uncle, he is Sunny." "Our neighbour I see." "Glad to meet you." " We'll meet later" "You were talking about some manager..." " Don't even mention the swine" "What has he done?" " He's made life miserable for me" "What's his name?" " Bloody Saturn!" "Shut up" "Sameer" "Uncle, our Sameer." "Your neighbour." "My roommate Sameer" "What...?" "Sameer stays in the neighbourhood?" "Which beggar in the neighbourhood?" " Not a beggar, it's Sameer" "One who wrecked you!" "Now he's after him" "That swine is after my whole family" "Time's not favourable, Sameer" "Forget the flowers, forget the colonel, placate the uncle" "Uncle..." "The tables have turned." "Now watch the fun" "Uncle, aunt..." "I'Ve got some presents for you" "Skirt and blouse for you" "Bush shirt for you, uncle" "Sweets for the kids" "Also some fruits for the two of you I hope you don't expect these things to bear fruit?" "Oh no, of course not" "Uncle, if by any chance I haVe uttered something wrong... please forgive me. I'Ve realised that I'Ve been unfair to you" "You are off the night shift." " What...?" "Then how about tonight...?" " Sure" "Son-in-law..." " Son-in-law...?" "Son-in-law, indeed." "The other day when I asked you about Rani... had you answered me, you'd have been married by now" "And I would be your uncle" "Uncle, a mistake is committed by mistake" "You must also have committed a mistake, by mistake, no?" "Aunt, am I wrong?" " You are absolutely right, son-in-law" "Greetings." " Greetings." "Come in" "Colonel sahib..." " You!" "Don't you dare step inside!" "Stay where you are" "Colonel sahib, consider it my bad luck or my karma... for all my good intentions, things invariably go wrong... and I end up hurting you." " 5000 people live around here" "Of all, why do you always choose to hurt me?" "Colonel sahib, the new year is about to set in, in a few hours time" "With the passing year, let bygones be bygones, please l beg your forgiveness" "D'you take me for a coward?" "Remember, I'm a soldier I kept forgiving you because I considered you a kid" "Not anymore" "Get this loud and clear" "Henceforth, for 50 metres around me... if I see you, or see you throwing anything... the last time I fired my gun was against the Portuguese... this time it's going to be you" "Yes, colonel sahib" "Happy happy new... handcuffs" "is this a new way to wish a new year?" " l'll tell you" "Where's Charles?" "Charles?" "Or Sameer?" " Sameer?" "is he a new kid in the Charles gang?" "have women joined Charles' gang too?" "There's no aunty here!" "Oh, this one?" "What's the problem in his pants?" " Today he's become a police officer" "Become, eh?" "Tell me something... you're an honest officer's wife, how do you know such criminals?" "I'm not a criminal, ask you neighbour if you wish" "Who neighbour?" "The retired soldier?" "Now I get it." "After retirement he's been sheltering criminals" "Let me go." "Rani is waiting for me." " Waiting for what?" "To murder someone?" "To loot a bank?" "Or to print fake stamp papers?" " What the hell...?" "Boy, you are going to rot here until the police Van arrives" "Then you'll go to jail." "Come on, don't stare at him" "The ass who smashed his head is on the loose, and I'm trapped here" "Am I wearing a convict's clothes?" "Am I going to meet Rani in 2010?" "Ladies and gentleman... and friends, let me show you another magical act" "Look, this is magic" "forgive me, Mr Magician, but pulling out a bouquet from a cloth... a pigeon from a turban and a rabbit from a box is quite simple I'll believe you if you can cast a spell on me" "He's challenging me" "All right, boy, it's no big deal." "Lie down on the bench" "Sure." "That's no big magic" "No, but it's going to be" "Friends, now my magic wand is going to suspend this boy in thin air" "If a stick can make someone float in the air... no one would care to buy air tickets." "They would be waiting for the stick I'm an astrologer, you see." " Before you stands a magician, fool" "C'mon, lie down!" " At your service" "Windbag!" "Here I go" "Abracadabra!" "Let the boy float in air" "Don't mess with a magician!" "Or, you will stay suspended in air" "Magician, I believe you now I fear, I might go right up there I pray, put me down" "All right" "How he lifted him up, we didn't even get to know" "This girl wouldn't believe me" "Rani, your arm on my shoulder is one pretty sight" "Let me make it simple for you, Sameer" "Stay 50 metres away from Papa and 500 metres away from me." "You dig?" "I'll show you guys a wonder now" "You... please come here" "Me...?" " Don't go!" "He'll put you in a box... and hack you to pieces..." "One boy." "Any one, please" "Mr Magician, there's a boy!" "Strong, rough, tough and reliable" "Seize your chance before Sunny arrives." "Go!" "Come this side, please." " No, I'm fine here" "Please come here lf he is in, I'm off." "Find someone else" "Hang on, lady" "Rather I'd leave I get it" "The two of you are cross with each other." "All right... I'll turn the enmity into friendship." " Can you do that?" "Of course, and I'll turn your hatred into love" "Hang on." "Your name?" " Rani" "And you are...?" " Sameer" "So, Sameer and Rani... the two of you are man and wife from now on" "And tonight, is your first New Year night" "Tell everyone how much you love each other" "What are you staring at?" " Admiring you" "Had you not traipsed into my life, I'd have been a nobody I'd have been an anklet sans the chime" "I'd have been a soleless shoe" "A heartless body lf not for you, Rani..." " Not Rani... call me Mrs Sameer Malhotra" "To be honest, I fell in love with you at first sight I haVe endured so much to possess you" "Don't torment me anymore." "Come..." "Well..." "I can wait no longer either" "Your beloved seeks your heart" "Come to me, my love" "Profess your love" "give in to me, my love" "I'm pining, so are you I'm waiting for you" "Profess your love" "give in to me, my love" "Your charms... like the tempest, my love" "Your looks... my identity, my love" "Gaze into my eyes" "Make me belong to you" "Profess your love" "give in to me, my love" "You have done me a favour" "You are in my dreams... you are all I desire" "Let's make a legend of love" "Come my love, make me go crazy in your love" "Profess your love" "give in to me, my love" "Your beloved seeks your heart" "Come to me, my love" "Profess your love... give in to me, my love" "Come to me, my love" "give in to me, Sweetheart" "The Prince has fallen in love with the Princess..." "Sameer, I'Ve been thinking." " What?" "You can play the guitar, paint, sing... you're quite a multi-talented man." " Guess why?" "That's because I'm me." "Not you!" "having a ball, aren't you?" " You have a great talent too" "What?" " You tell lies to fool people!" "Listen, make a portrait for me too" "Don't mind, but I paint only beautiful people!" "Know what?" " What, what?" "I'm in a great mood today." "Say what you want to" "You aren't as innocent as you appear to be" "Why?" "How you brought Rani around in just two hours last night" "Weren't you jealous!" "As close as you get to her, I want to get closer to her too" "Aren't you jealous?" "Aren't you?" "What's your problem?" "My problem is that I want to score with my friend's girlfriends... it makes me Very happy!" "When I get married, I want you to paint me and my wife together" "You know, with her at my side." "And I lying down in her lap" "She in black-and-white, I in colour..." "Sure, I will" "Whom are you marrying?" "Bijli?" "No, it's Rani" "Aren't you jealous?" "Aren't you?" "See?" "Your temper hurts you yourself, doesn't it?" "If it wasn't for the oath, I'd have squeezed him out like the tube!" "Where's Sameer?" " The brush!" "Get to be the master's disciple!" "Quick!" "Life's a dream..." "Who...?" "Rani, you...?" "You can even paint!" " Well, I..." "My painting...?" "How sweet!" "Tears and desires, that's how it is" "You're quite a revelation, Sunny." " No revelation" "Painting, singing, the guitar..." "No wonder they call you multi-talented" "Sameer's multi-talented too" "You ought to have seen him at the party last night" "The way he sang and danced... I'Ve been teaching him classical dancing and he's into rock?" "Anyway, fresh orange juice for the two of you." "Where's he?" "He's in the latrine right now" "He'll take some time." "You can wait." " No thank you" "give him some and you have some too." "Happy New Year" "Was Rani here?" " Yes, she was" "You'll now ask me if even my father has even done any painting" "And I'll say, my Papa's a Very big businessman in Indore" "You'll say, Liar, dog..." " That you really are" "Your dream of making Rani fall in love with you will remain a pipe dream lt won't be a pipe dream." "Because I know what your weakness is" "Really?" "What is it?" "You can never tell Rani that you love her" "So listen!" "I swear it on my grandma!" "I will profess my love to Rani in the presence of the whole world today!" "And I swear it on my father in Indore too I'm the one who'll bring Rani to this house, as a bride" "If my love is true, I'll be the one who'll marry Rani" "And if I'm determined enough, I'll lead her here by the hand" "For me." "You are Rani's brother" "No brother. I'm her lover" "Rani, you think this loVer-boy is an accomplished singer and painter I'll expose him to you today" "C'mon, sweetheart, let's go" "This juice Rani brought for you I'll have it" "Hold it!" "Who did she bring it for?" " For you" "So I'll drink it!" "Share it with me!" "I can't share anything of Rani's!" "May you find it bitter!" "I find everything of Rani's to be sweet" "At least let out a burp!" "I'll paint a picture and also sing a song... and expose Sunny." "Okay?" "What new ailment is this?" "One Duggal is difficult to tolerate" "Three, five...?" "More than I can endure!" "Where do you think you're going?" "Stop there!" "Lie down here, Rani. I'll put them to bed and return" "C'mon!" "Eagle!" "I'm going to make you a seagull!" "Senior!" "Swat this fly!" "You'Ve made a mistake by messing with the Eagle Gang!" "One Sunny I can't tolerate." "And six of them walk up to me!" "I'm going to thrash all six of them!" "C'mon!" "Tommy!" "Come here!" "Come!" "You always bark at me, don't you?" "So bark now... bark!" "The next time you bark, you're going to disappear." "You get that...?" "Take care of your kids and your dogs!" "I'll spare you this time." "Next time, you're gone" "Tommy, my son, don't keep going outside" "There are bad people in the locality" "have I ever raised my Voice with you?" "have I?" "And how Sameer was yelling at you yesterday!" "The insolent chap!" "Go and play in the house, son." "And don't go out... my good son!" "Tommy!" "Tommy..." "Tommy, where have you gone?" "You ought to have considered what would happen to me without you!" "Darling, we too are sad that Tommy's gone missing" "But how long will you keep starving, thinking about him?" "Let's eat, Papa. I'm hungry too" "No, my child. I don't feel like it" "Colonel... I'Ve looked everywhere in Goa, but there's no trace of Tommy I don't know where he has gone." "Could someone have kidnapped him?" "But who could be Tommy's enemy?" "Mr Duggal!" "That's it" "No... he hasn't been around since yesterday" "Sameer...?" " Why Sameer?" "No, can't be Sameer." "But he could do a thing like this too." "Remember his public threat?" "That he'd make the dog disappear!" "If the dog barks, I'll kill him, I'll finish him!" "No way, he was drunk." " Really...?" "But who then...?" "He's the culprit!" "Who is it?" "That scoundrel has broken me in every part of my body!" "I don't know what revenge he is extracting from me... by having Tommy separated from me!" "Sameer!" "Where are you hiding, you thief?" "This is a warning!" "If you don't return Tommy to me in 24 hours... I'll have you sent to jail!" "I still hold sway among the cops." "I'm not sparing you!" "What does that mean?" " He has influence" "give him the dog!" "May the worms get you!" "What new fuss is this...?" "have your father treated" "Why'd I haVe my brother-in-law kidnapped anyway?" "Why...?" "Where am I going to look for this dog now?" "You have a Variety of dogs" " Hush!" "Don't call them dogs." "They take offense I'Ve brought them up like my own children" "That's Rustom, that's Sohrab." "Eats less, snarls all the time" "That's Cyrus." "Faithful." "But eats and enjoys a good life" "And that is..." "This is the dog I want." "Do you have it?" "I do have it!" "That's my boy, Tin Tin!" "Say hello!" "Quite a good boy." "But once he loses his temper... he's going to bite." "And remember... don't ever give him a cold bath" "But this one doesn't have a black spot." " Don't worry!" "Here's the solution!" "Mr Colonel..." "look who's here" "Tommy!" "My son...!" "Where had you gone away to?" "Where did you find him, Sameer?" " The poor chap... was sitting by a lamp-post, shivering." "He used to always bark at me" "But this time, he said, Papa..." "and went for my feet" "He appeared to be telling me, Please take me to my Papa" "Papa...?" " You" "Oh yes!" "He's like my son, of course!" "Papa, it's because of Sameer that we have Tommy back today" "You must forgive him at least now." " Sure, I forgive him!" "Rama, lay the table" "What's happening here?" "Look at this, Sunny!" "Tommy's back today because of Sameer" "Look me in the eye, my brother!" "Where did you find the dog...?" "Where did you find it?" "I went mad looking for it!" "For Rani's sake, look into my eyes!" "Where did you find the dog?" "Tell me!" "Sunny, I don't know what's gotten into my Tommy" "He's been behaving like a stranger ever since he has returned" "He seems to have changed." " He has stayed with the stray dogs I know a cure!" "Squeeze him in a bucket of cold water!" "Squeeze him ?" " l mean, give him a cold bath" "Oh, I see." "All right" "Please sit down." " Won't you give Tommy a bath?" "No!" "I'll first give Tommy a bath." "I'll have breakfast later" "The breakfast will get cold, papa." " l'll be back soon, my child" "Let's take a bath, Tommy boy!" " Where's Sameer?" "Sunny, please call Sameer, will you?" " Not me, he sleeps till late" "He'll hit me for no reason." "You go and call him instead" "All right, I'll call him" "We shall overcome..." "Who is it?" "Are you asleep, Sameer?" "Wake up!" "Sunny, don't change your Voice and bother me!" "Let me sleep!" "Rani...?" "One second." "I'll be out there" "Who are you...?" "Who on earth are you?" " Bijli" "But who...?" " lt's Rani" "One moment, Rani. I'm coming!" "What are you doing here?" "What?" " What are you doing here?"

I'm leaving this world behind" "You'Ve only seen Rani and me getting together" "Won't you stay for the wedding?" "Guess who played the biggest role in bringing Rani and me together?" "He kept making mistakes and she kept getting closer to me" "Oh yes, that's a solid idea you gave me!" "Of publicly proposing to Rani!" "Incidentally, India and Pakistan are playing a cricket match today I'Ve invited her father." "Rani will be there too I'm thinking of saying it to her in public!" "Rani, will you marry me?" "You're lucky... because I'Ve stopped dreaming about Rani" "Enjoy yourself" "Fights, brawls, show of temper... and proposing to girls are things real men do" "I'd rather you play the guitar, Sameer" "Today's match is going to be a terrific affair... because, for the first time, we have the Indian and Pakistani teams... playing a friendly match in this stadium in Goa today" "Paa-ji's here!" "Get out of the way!" "Where do you think you're going?" "Get out!" "Who's that in the stadium?" "He's grabbed the mike from Pa-ji I'll..." "Rani!" "Where are you?" "He's come here, looking for Rani!" "Who's Rani?" "What's he shouting Rani for?" "Who's she?" "It has to do with the heart." "Keep it up, brave lad!" "Go for her!" "Looks like it has to do with love" "Rani..." "listen to me..." "Where're you hiding, sis-in-law?" "The boss is so upset!" "He'll find her." "He sure will." " Sis-in-law!" "Rani... where are you?" "You mess with my mike?" "You fight with me?" "Rani!" "All I'll say is that you mustn't marry Sunny!" "He's not worthy of you!" "It's a question of your life!" "Hold it, hold it... he has something to say." "Looks like it has to do with love" "Here you are" "Rani, I'm not the sort of guy you think I am" "Yes, I made the mistake of keeping my temper under control" "Else, I'd have beaten Sunny black and blue and throw him out of Goa" "But Sunny's done a wonderful thing today" "He has stopped me from going away" "There's something I want to say to you, Rani" "Rani... I loVe you" "I haVe loved you ever since I first set eyes on you" "Since the day the Colonel started hating me" "Colonel... I'Ve made a lot of mistakes." "Please forgive me" "Rani, if you're not in love with me... it's cool. I'll go away" "But I haVe a feeling that you do" "That you do love me" "And thus, I publicly..." "He's Very upset!" "I'm not asking for too much. I only want you to marry me... so that we can have a family." "We can have kids... who take after you in looks; eyes, nose, lips, cheeks et al l only want them to have my surname... because my dad had the surname Malhotra" "All I want to say to you is..." "Ask her, Will you marry me?" " l'll marry you, if she doesn't!" "Rani... will you marry me?" "Louder!" "Will you marry me?" "Can't hear you!" "Rani!" "Will you marry me?" "Will you marry me...?" "Say yes, sister-in-law." " Please say yes!" "Rani, I think he's the right boy for you" "He at least won't hit me after he's married to you" "Say yes, girl!" "Go on!" "That's a spirited boy." "He's in love with you!" "He's saying as much in public." "So say yes!" "Let the birds fly!" "Say yes, sister-in-law!" "Go on, my child." "Go!" "Our kids will take after you in eyes and smile" "And I like the surname Malhotra" "Could I haVe the mike, please?" "As my mother used to say... anger is love's worst enemy" "One who can't control his temper, can't control anything in his lifetime" "Sameer, my mother says, anger is love's worst enemy" "One who can't control his temper, can't control anything in his lifetime" "Not your mother!" "That's what my friend Arun's mother used to say!" "You remember what your friend used to say" "But you'Ve forgotten your friend?" "You can't be Arun!" "You're a scoundrel!" "Arun was a gem of a guy!" "Guess whose house I went to first, on my return from America... after 19 years?" "Yours!" "Sameer's not here." "Who are you?" " lt's me!" "Sameer's childhood friend." "Arun!" "Good God!" "Where's my buddy, grandma?" " He's away in Goa ls he still as hot-tempered, or has he calmed down?" "His temper has got worse with age, my son" "Grandma then told me about your problem... how you had had a heart-break, how you had gone away to Goa... met Rani there and fallen in love with her... and how, for her sake, you had suppressed your anger" "Okay then. I'll go and phone Sameer" "No, grandma." "You won't say a word to him I'm going to treat him not as his friend, but as his adversary" "That's how I landed in Goa... to stay with your house, in your room, with you!" "I now know why you did this all the time, buddy boy!" "C'mon!" "The insolent!" " Go topless" "Those with iron pajamas..." " have an ape for an Uncle!" "Whose aunts are cats..." " have dogs for friends!" "When it comes to the pickle..." " They hug, buddy!" "The insolent!" " Go topless" "Those with iron pajamas!" " have an ape for an Uncle!" "Whose aunts are cats..." " have dogs for friends!" "When it comes to the pickle..." " They hug, buddy!" "What happened?" "What's up now?" "All over again!" "What wrong have I done now?" " You're ill-fated, son I'm jinxed!" "But nothing can go wrong now" "The poor chap's been suffering all this while" "For your sake, he has remained a bachelor" "You shall now become his bride... marry him" "marry him" "It seemed as if this chap was my tormentor" "But he's the one who has shown me the right path" "however, you are the one who shall become my bride" "You must become his sister-in-law... you must marry me"
