(Rap song)
Hi.
Morning.
Radhika?
Yeah?
What?
What song is Binny listening to?
It's a rap. Why?
I know that.
Notice the words?
Every line has that...
Yes, the F word.
Why are you being so scandalized?
All rap songs are like this.
What do you mean?
Like this?
We also listen to songs.
Our songs don't have this.
Thats the mother F word.
What can I do Vinay?
Don't they have good rap songs?
Hindi rap songs are so clean.
They don't have the Fs and MFs.
Talk to her.
Why should I talk to her?
Why can't you talk to her?
You are the one who spoiled her.
(Rap song)
Morning mom, morning dad.
Morning.
Binny...
What kind of songs do you play?
What do you mean?
I mean every line has... that...
What?
He's talking about the F word.
Come on dad...
Seriously?
I respect all your Indian middle-class values...
But this is literally overreacting.
No.
You should learn to chill...
Sometimes.
I'm getting very late.
I'll see you all.
Peace.
What are you doing?
What?
Whats wrong with this?
This means up your bum.
Do it properly at least.
Its the same.
Got these sexy glares today bro.
I'm gonna pap myself.
I should post this or what?
You are looking super funny.
Like worse.
Listen. Using all these down-market desi slangs doesn't make you cool.
Imported peasant.
Hey Bhavesh Parikh...
Your bloody ass came from India five years ago. Ok?
Whatever mate, I'm half British now.
You are not half anything, you are a full wannabe.
What?
Obviously bro.
You're an Indian.
Living in UK...
and faking American accent.
Wow.
Buying Gucci doesn't mean you buy class.
Screw class.
It's for Instagram.
Buying expensive things is not some occasion for an instagram post.
You cringey bug.
That's the culture, man.
Why are you hating on me?
Hell with this culture.
- Are you done? - Yeah.
Shall we move?
I'm the one getting late.
I have rehearsals, not you.
Give me the keys.

(Rap song)
Good morning, guys.
Good morning.
Hey loves.
So... I am throwing a small get together.
For my Lola...
And the venue is obviously my house.
And the entire cast is invited.
So will you come?
Wow. That's amazing.
Of course. Of course.
Thanks Tia, but you know how much work I have...
With the play and prelims.
Oh come on Tarantino!
Learn to let off some steam once in a while
Dhruv, you're coming, right?
You didn't come to last one and you know how bad Lola felt.
I will be there 100%.
Okay, great.
See you all.
Toodles.
See you guys there?
Yeah mate, for sure. Why not?
Alright.
Can we make this quick please?
I have an audition to get to.
Sure.
Alright.
Let's go.
Come on guys, hurry up.
Guys, let's take it from Act 1.
Oh my God.
Four missed calls?
♪ Hey, guards. Tell Kanhaiya. ♪
♪ Hey, guards. ♪
Vinay...
Noticed my missed call?
Yes, I had back to back classes.
Is everything okay?
Yes. Everything is fine.
Hello?
Too much of noise...
Are you outside?
Yes, heading for pension union work.
They stopped payments of few members.
I am going there to fix it.
Let someone else be the union president.
Why do you take this trouble?
No really, my son.
I enjoy it.
I get to interact with people.
I called to inform you...
Our London tickets got booked, the first Wednesday next month.
You could have told me... I would have sent the tickets.
I get a big fat pension my son.
How do I spend it?
Too much for an old couple.
Ok, alright.
I'm off to class, talk to you later.
Oh, okay...
- Bye for now - Bless you.
- Hello - Bless you
Who is that clerk?
The counter 3.
One with the beard?
Let me check... Please wait here.
Hello...
Why aren't you transferring pension to the widow?
Who are you?
I am S N Singh...
Pension union's president.
Sir, the lady hasn't furnished a required certificate.
What certificate?
Certificate that she hasn't remarried.
Only then she would receive her late husband's pension.
Are you out of your mind?
Asking for no-remarriage certificate from a 75 year old widow?
Calm down.
Spit tobacco before talking.
Spit it.
Sir, this is the rule.
You would teach me rules?
What happened sir?
He is refusing to work.
Asking for a certificate...
From a 75 year old widow...
To prove she hasn't remarried.
Tell me... what is this?
He is new at work. I apologise.
Train him if he is new.
Consider the work done.
Please come, have some tea.
Alright... You get this done.
Over.
Alright.
Hey, Dhruv.
Hey.
How are you man?
I am alright.
- Nice blazer... - Killer
How much?
It was a gift.
Oh...
- Tarantino - Hey
You listen to Nirvana?
Yeah, I do. I love them.
- Same - Same
Nirvana is the best.
I listen to all their songs.
Smells like teen spirit.
No, no, Gucci.
It's a song.
Oh my God, where were you?
I have been waiting here for so long.
You know I don't know anyone here.
Oh my God.
Binny, I swear I didn't even recognise you.
You look so...
Different.
Big fan of this whole grungy look.
I mean, forget fashion. Right?
Alright, Dhruv. Let's go.
I'll see you guys inside.
Sure, I'll find you. Bye.
- Bye - Bye
Don't spoil my look.
Hi.
Hey, hi.
- Coffee? - Yeah
Okay, listen.
Everything okay with Papa?
What happened?
He kept calling in the middle of session.
Vinay, all is okay? Right?
Yes, all is well.
He called to inform...
They are coming next month, the first Wednesday.
Coming Wednesday?
Yes.
What happened to you?
Such a long sigh?
What can I do?
Their visit lasts two months...
And they do adjust in Binny's room.
But Vinay, poor Binny...
She also adjusts. Right?
She has A-level exams this year.
We need to be fair to her.
She needs her space.
Papa should understand this.
He's been a professor all his life.
That's not the case.
Papa understands,
But this is hard to explain...
Concept of personal space is alien to him.
We lived in a small house.
Just a living room and a bedroom.
Papa took his tuitions while I was also studying there.
We also had a constant stream of guests.
But I never complained...
That I need my own space?
So I can't explain to him that Binny needs her own space.
Otherwise Papa would say, London has turned me into a snob.
Okay forget it.
Explain it to your daughter.
Where is she?
She's gone for a birthday party.
Again?
Look nice. Smile!
Too ugly for me anyway, bro.
Oh... That Sanaya chick is damn hot.
Too hot.
She is glued to him.
What happened?
Nothing.
It's your birthday!
We have come all the way to attend a cat's birthday party.
Cat? Are you mad? She is Princess Lola.
She has like 1 million followers... Look.
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday Princess Lola...
What happened Mom?
Binny... Where are you?
It's 1 am.
Mom... I'm at the party.
You're still at this party?
Come home now. Leave.
Can you just chill? I'll be home in an hour.
I'm not a kid anymore.
I hope you're not drinking and stuff.
No, I'm not.
Binny.
Hello...
Hello?
Yeah Mom.
Binny, is someone dropping you home?
Yes Mom, otherwise I will take a cab. Ok?
Now chill out and stop calling me. I'm at the party. Bye.
One Jager.
Vinay.
Look at this.
Our dear darling daughter is drinking.
Talk to her.
I can't... We had fought over this already.
She would accuse me of stalking her on social media.
Vinay, I don't understand her.
She has time to party...
But has no time for college applications and projects.
She won't get some top college just because I am a career counselor.
And please explain to her...
Unlike her rich friends, we can't send her to any college without scholarship
Alright I'll talk to her
Please...
Hey!
What?
Ice tea for you.
Going out somewhere?
Football practice...
And then to the park to chill.
You guys chill a lot...
Hope you don't turn into ice-cube.
Very funny.
What are you looking for?
My other shoe.
You needed my help with your project?
Later, Dad...
You research it, and I will write.
What's this my dear?
Please... I have my prelims, my rehearsals, I have my finals.
So you should plan yourself.
Dad, please, not a lecture right now.
- Hello Mom. - Bless you.
Counting the days to meet you.
Give the phone to Binny,
Here she is... Talk to her.
Hello Granny
Road lives...
- Hello my princess... - Ponytail.
- My angel... - Ponytail.
With age, you are forgetting your Granny.
Granny, it's not like that...
How are you doing?
By god's grace, I am very well.
See for yourself when I reach London.
What goodies do you want me to bring for you?
I am making your Papa's favourite sweets.
That's okay Granny. I will share his.
Please talk to Dad.
Yes Mom, are you taking medicines on time?
Yes, I am taking everything.
Now I will disconnect...
Otherwise your Papa will blame me...
For blowing his pension on phone bill.
Okay Mom.
Okay.
What the hell Dad?
What?
You know all my exams are coming.
My finals are coming.
My A-levels are coming.
And now for two months, my room is going for a toss?
Do you not understand that?
I understand that.
But don't think this way...
Grandparents coming here will hamper your studies?
And them not coming will make you a top scholar?
What shit are you talking?
It's not shit.
Let me tell you what I mean.
You won't have done earth shattering studies anyway.
That doesn't mean I shouldn't get my space during exams.
No... You are so scared of Grandpa, you would never speak up.
I am not scared of him.
I respect him unreservedly.
What unreservedly?
The kind of respect that your generation doesn't know of.
Listen, your grandparents are coming and they will stay for two months.
This is final.
If you have any problem with studies...
I will put a table chair for you in the living room...
Sit there and study.
Just don't give me these excuses.
Okay?
Fine...
What?
Do whatever you want.
Because you gonna do it anyway.
Fuck...
What?
What did you say?
Toss a coin... You think too much.
The temple looks fine?
Guru is missing.
Here you go...
Thanks.
- Cheers - Cheers
Did we forget something?
Nope.
- Cheers - Cheers
Papa?
Vinay!
Yes Papa?
What do they charge for extra luggage at the airport?
Every airline has different charges...
Some allow 23 kg, some 24.
You know your mother very well.
Your friend at the airline might help.
It is 3 am, Papa.
Oh my god...
I completely forgot the time difference.
Go back to sleep. Sleep.
You don't remember anything.
Arriving in 10 minutes.
Oh no.
Radhika, we are home.
- Coming... - Come.
Sindoor...
Yeah.
Where is Sindoor?
Forget it.
Okay.
Welcome, Papa.
Come.
- Hello Mom. - Hey.
I will get the suitcase.
Bless you... Always be happy.
How was the flight?
It was too long.
Bless you.
Please have a seat.
Come...
Give me.
I will keep it.
Can I get you some tea?
Yes dear.
Make it strong.
Papa, please rest.
You must be tired.
No dear, I am okay.
Why are you standing? Sit down.
No, I am okay.
♪ Hey, guards. Tell Kanhaiya. ♪
Who is calling?
My friend... Already missing me.
We just entered and you called.
(Rap song)
Bro, man.
You were so drunk that you left with the stash.
Okay?
Everyone at the party was asking.
Ria asked... Rachel asked...
Lydia asked... Dhruv asked.
Chuck Dhruv, man.
Why?
Why are you so concerned about him?
Firstly, I am not concerned about him. I am concerned about you.
Not required.
Okay.
He had his girlfriend with him.
What girlfriend?
Why was he searching for me?
Dhruv?
Dhruv doesn't have a girlfriend.
Sanaya... They were kissing that night.
I literally saw them.
Everyone literally saw them, it wasn't some private event.
They kissed in front of everybody.
They are having a thing, everyone knows.
A thing?
Yeah.
- Vinay... - What?
Take these sweets. Your favorite.
Oh no...
She won't find out... Eat it quickly.
Vinay?
Yes?
Who is this gentleman on Binny's wall?
Papa, he is Dr. Dre
Is he a doctor?
Vinay, I need you. One second.
One second. Come.
I don't like this about Binny.
Hmm.
Grandparents have arrived and she is coming home late today.
Hmm...
What hmm?
Call her.
Hmm.
You sit in your Mom's lap and eat all the sweets.
Give me that.
Stupid.
Yes.
Pass lentils.
Hello Grandpa.
Here is my princess.
Bless you. Have a long life.
Hello Granny.
Wishing you all the happiness.
She has grown taller in an year.
Yes.
She isn't like us in height.
Thank God.
So, finals this year?
- Yes. - Good.
So, my dear...
Avoid extracurricular activities...
Put focus on your studies.
Yes.
Why don't you sit and eat with us?
I will eat in the room.
No, everyone should eat together.
No.
Give proper time to everything.
Yes.
Come.
- Binny, lentils. - Pass her the bowl.
Binny...
Yes?
There is a big photo of a doctor in your room.
What kind of doctor is he?
Dr. Dre
Oh...
He is not a doctor.
He is a rapper.
Wrapper?
What do you mean?
I mean, he sings rap songs.
Umm...
It's like poetry...
But over a beat.
A mix of poetry and singing...
- Something like that. - Okay.
Why don't you sing and show it?
Yes, sing.
Some good song.
♪ I heard you got a new man. ♪
♪ I see you taking a pic. ♪
♪ Then you posted up thinking ♪ ♪ that it is making me sick. ♪
♪ I see you calling. ♪
♪ I will be making it quick ♪
♪ If you call him and answer that shit. ♪
♪ Like, I don't fuck with... ♪
Swallowed. I am fine.
Done?
I mean, yeah.
This is how you sing a rap song.
She sings very well.
This sounds more like...
The way our math teacher taught us the tables.
2 twos are 4... 2 threes are 6.
2 fours are 8... 2 fives are 10.
Yo!
You have to say Yo in between.
- Wow, Dad. - 2 twos are 4 is fine.
Hillarious.
Shut up you guys.
You don't understand anything.
Our baby sang so well.
Like a singing angel.
Well done.
You sing so you know better.
Granny, do you sing?
No, no.
Please sing something.
No, I don't sing.
Just a bit.
Please sing, she is requesting you.
Okay. I will sing as much as I remember.
♪ Some of ours, ♪
♪ Together with you, ♪
♪ Some of yours, ♪
♪ Together with me, ♪
♪ All of these moments... ♪
♪ All of these moments, ♪
♪ Would remain in memories forever. ♪
That's it. That's all I can sing.
- That was great. - Granny, you smashed it.
Come in Grandpa.
You are a rascal.
You really scared me.
You seem to be having a lot of fun.
Why did you put the F word in rap?
Hello, who made me sing the rap.
Yes my dear. Sing a rap song for us.
My bad.
But honestly, the F word was a slip.
I swear.
Yes.
See, Granny brought it for me.
What?
Wow... Nice, beautiful.
Nice?
Dad, are you crazy? This is ridiculous.
I am never going to wear it.
Okay.
No need to be so sentimental.
I gave Granny a big smile and thanked her.
Thank you, my child.
Whatever.
I like Grandpa and Granny.
They are really nice.
But don't expect me to sit and chill with them now.
That's a bit much.
Do I ever push?
No you don't, but...
You get the vibe.
Okay, can I study here?
Yes, of course.
They are here for two months. Right?
No! Longer this time.
What?
No.
You can't do this.
Okay. I was kidding.
Carry on studying.
Dad, its not funny.
Happy studying.
Binny?
Binny!
Yes, Grandpa?
Taking so long... Get out.
Granny, what are you doing?
Here...
Applying oil, what else.
Granny, please. I will do it later.
The rat went and hid.
And the cat cried.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Grandpa?
Looking for something?
Yes, my magazine. Trying to find it.
No, I saw it there.
It was here.
Yes, here it is.
Bless you.
Hey Binny.
All your jeans are torn.
You don't really care.
I stitched them all.
Wear them only at home.
Don't step outside in them.
Take it.
Granny has ruined all my ripped jeans...
Like literally stitched them up.
I cannot take this anymore.
Come here and sort this out or I'm leaving.
Binny, please.
I'm in a restaurant, getting ready for a party.
Hello?
Wait, hold on.
Wait, I can't hear you.
Stop irritating me... So much morning, morning.
Like it's really annoying.
- What time are you picking me? - Oh dear.
Why aren't you wearing any pants?
What is this?
I really want to go.
Binny, move.
- Pick me up, please. Mom, hang on.
Move, move, move.
I want to leave this house right now.
Pick me up, now!
Take it.
What are you so busy with?
Who are you texting? Nothing.
Nothing. Dhruv has called me home tomorrow.
Bug off.
For the play.
Dhruv? Dhruv Singh?
Show, show me.
What's there to see? Stop it.
That's what I was wondering.
Why are you so interested in who is Dhruv kissing?
Who's he having a thing with?
What about the stuff you talk of...
I hate these snooty people. I hate this Gucci culture.
He's also from the same bunch.
He isn't exactly a commoner.
He's might be from the same bunch, but...
He's different.
Different how?
He's got some substance to him.
There's something about him, unlike the rest.
Nah...
You like him because he has those eyes.
He's so good looking.
He is the Mr. Popular.
Oooh...
So?
What so?
I'm a girl at the end of the day.
Are you sure?
What do you mean?
I mean, it doesn't appear so.
Really? Let me show you.
- See this. - Ouch.
Don't touch my Gucci cap.
Gucci cap, my foot.
- Why are you so violent, man? - I will stab it on your Gucci cap.
Hey, Tarantino.
Come in.
Yeah. A little extra, I know.
No, not at all.
Please.
Hey!!
The Son of Man?
I like the concept of the... visible and... the hidden.
Or rather, hidden visible.
Nice.
It's crazy, I don't get how...
All profound things revolve around apples.
- Always. - Hmm.
What if it is Newton's apple?
Hello, I didn't know you speak Hindi.
A little bit.
A little bit?
Should we rehearse scenes then?
I think so.
Where do you wanna start?
Hello!
Get up.
I'm feeling suffocated.
Get up.
Feeling breathless?
Got it.
Vinay.
Hey, Vinay.
Vinay.
Something happened.
Yes Papa?
What happened, Papa?
All okay?
Binny is not here.
What?
Umm...
Papa, she is at a friend's birthday.
She told us before leaving.
Yes.
I am so sleepy, I forgot.
Yes.
You guys allowed her, so no point talking to you.
I will talk to her.
Your mother was breathless again.
Ohh.
I gave her medicines.
Have put on the neutralizer.
Call the doctor tomorrow.
Get her checked up.
Sure.
Take care of your daughter.
What to say...
Did you know she was out?
No. She sneaked out Vinay.
I'm sure of it.
- Call her. - You check on Mom.
Hey!
What's up, big guy?
How are you? All right?
Yeah man.
Looking glamorous.
Thank you, man.
Bro, Sanaya didn't come?
Yeah. I think she is busy tonight.
Witches will be witches, bro.
What can we do?
He came, he came.
Yeah, I saw him.
Couldn't you tell me he's coming?
What do you mean?
On my birthday, I'm giving you a gift.
Yet the drama?
Even if I had told you, it won't have made any difference.
You would still be dressed the way you are.
Shut up.
What do you mean?
I'm telling you.
This is your golden opportunity.
Straight up go and kiss him.
Bro, it's my birthday.
He won't object.
Go ahead.
Go, say hi at least.
He is standing all alone.
Alright, I am going.
Hey.
Oh! Hi!
Hi.
You alright?
All good?
Umm, yeah.
Yeah.
It's okay, you don't have to talk about it.
It's nothing like that.
Sanaya is interning for my Mum and...
It's just making things messy.
I can imagine.
Well...
Someone once told me...
You should learn to let off some steam once in a while.
Oh really?
Really!
Okay now, don't be a bore.
You're at a party mister. Come on.
Yeah!
Come on. Come on.
♪ Lose control.♪
Binny! Binny!
Come on. Come on.
♪ Lose control.♪
♪ Losing control. Losing control.♪
Stay here, I'll get help.
I mean his chauffeur.
Yeah.
Hello.
Binny, where are you?
I'm coming... Relax.
Bye.
Binny, don't...
She disconnected.
She sneaked out and yet she's only sounding irritated.
Hello, Mom.
I forgot my house keys.
Can you please open the door?
Relax, relax.
Quiet.
Are you out of your mind?
Dad informed me that you're gone.
What will he think?
That the girl stays out all night.
Let him think whatever he wants.
- What? - What?
Look Dad, tell me one thing.
Are you upset because I came home late...
Or because Grandpa found out?
Sneaking out is bad enough.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
Fine?
You guys need to understand that I'm a bloody grown up now.
I knew it, when they are here...
Getting a late night permission from you two is impossible.
So, I sneaked out. Big deal.
Big deal?
You're coming home at 3 am...
And you're trying to justify this?
You could have just told us, Binni.
We could have worked something out.
Every time I ask you Mom, can I go out? I'm going out?
Yes.
Obviously.
Obviously not.
And then you start freaking out.
Asking thousand questions.
Who? Where?
For what? Time?
Girls? Boys?
And now, because of Grandpa, this fake image building exercise.
Shut up, Binny...
Stop judging us by your value system.
Unlike you, he didn't grow up watching Modern Family.
He grew up watching Ramayana.
Rama lived in a forest for years just to keep his father's word.
Seriously?
Vinay!!
Yes.
Is Binny back?
Yes, she's here. She's changing.
She'll sleep with us. You guys go to sleep.
She'll sleep later...
First send her out. I want to talk to her.
You stay...
I'm staying... You go.
Umm...
Vinay!
Yes, I'm sending her. She's coming.
Where were you?
To my friend's birthday.
What birthday party runs so late in the night?
You're a girl.
What if something unforeseen happens?
How would we show our face to people?
Papa, I will talk to her.
You've already talked.
Is there anything left to talk?
Your daughter fools you and stays out all night...
And you guys are sleeping in peace?
What clothes do you wear outside?
You look like a nutcase.
No partying from tomorrow.
This year is your final one, right?
Now on, sit with me to study as soon as you are back from school.
Carry on.
Yes.
Take a breath, auntie.
Ain't I still breathing?
Lungs are compromised.
And...
Blood oxygen level is on the lower side.
It's 92%.
Same medicines?
I'll send the prescription from clinic.
How long would they be here?
They're planning to leave next week.
Ohh!
Stay back for couple of weeks, I suggest.
Why are you cutting it?
I don't feel like eating.
If you don't eat, you'll only get weaker.
Hello Grandpa.
Hi Granny.
How is my princess?
I'm okay.
Take care of yourself.
Yes my dear.
Stay happy.
Study well. Okay?
- Go. - Okay.
Don't worry.
You take good rest.
Yes.
Listen...
Yes?
Do you remember?
You have to sit with me this evening...
With the English text book.
Grandpa, my sociology project is due.
I have to research for it.
If we can wait for 2-3 days?
We will be leaving in 2-3 days.
Okay...
Work on the project.
She will study. Why are you harassing her?
I'm not harassing. I am telling her the right thing.
Can I speak to Mum?
No.
Can I speak to you?
All right, guys.
Can I please have your attention?
Alright.
I am happy to announce...
That we have made it to the finals of inter-school theatre competition.
All right, all right.
Calm down, calm down.
I mean, we still have a lot of work to do.
Binny, you have done a great job.
I mean, Dhruv and Sanaya...
The rest of the cast amazing!
So, let's take a break...
Ease off for a few days...
And then let's get back to prepping, yeah?
All right, guys.
Can I get your attention really quickly?
I'll try and make this painless and short.
I think we should acknowledge the true reason behind this success.
Our director.
However, however...
This was a team effort.
And I do think the team deserves a party too.
Yeah, dude.
Yeah?
All right, so this weekend, my place, let's go hard.
Let's go hard...
You guys in?
Yes!!!
Yeah.
Especially you, Tarantino.
Man is literally throwing you a party.
Are you blind?
Not for me, for everyone.
I know that you're very cool.
You don't have to prove it all the time.
And what am I saying?
I'm just saying life doesn't offer opportunities often.
What proof? What opportunity?
Sometimes I genuinely don't understand what shit you speak.
Bro, look... Him and Sanaya are done.
- Finished they're... - What?
They are over!
Nonsense.
What do you mean?
Look, you only said there's tension between Sanaya and Dhruv.
After that, he came to my party without Sanaya.
And then he drank like a sailor.
Right?
And now also they were fighting, you saw?
Yeah.
As soon as he made that announcement, and said that thing about you...
Sanaya just walked out only.
So, what do you want me to do?
Bro, firstly, I want you to stop dressing like a careless brat.
It's so...
Ohh... What? People are watching.
So think and talk.
What did I say? What did I say?
How can you comment on my outfit? I think I look cool.
You're very cool, man.
I'm just saying go to a salon.
Do a little hair, little make-up, if not a whole makeover.
Yuck...
That's just cliche.
Like, what do you think if a girl goes to salon?
She does makeover and suddenly she is considered hot?
I'll just come out looking like a different person?
I'm not asking you to look hot. I know it's not possible.
I'm asking you to look sexy.
What's the difference?
Bro, being hot is a constant state of being.
Sexy, you can look for one night. Right?
Excuse me?
Look, all I'm trying to say is...
That Dhruv for some weird reason...
Likes your personality...
You have this intellectual connection
That makes him notice you, which is great!
But... it's not enough.
Are you understanding?
He can't just notice you. He's got to desire you.
Have you lost the plot in life?
No, I see the plot very clearly.
And you listen to me, you have two options.
First, you can confront your feelings...
Go to Dhruv, take your chances...
Put in some efforts, for one night.
And see what happens?
If not, your second option is...
Keep trying to play cool...
Play dodge-ball with your feelings for the rest of your life...
And end up alone with seven cats.
Idiot.
Papa, the ticket is here.
What time is it?
It's 16:30...
Our flight is tomorrow, 4:30 in the evening.
That's good.
Papa, I was wondering...
Postpone it for few days...
It's a matter of 15 days.
Dr. Gosh says you have come all the way, it's better to get a check-up.
Even after 15 days, the doctor will say the same thing...
Take a nebulizer,
Exercise your lungs...
Take medicines...
The doctor knows nothing beyond this.
Granny is a full-on badass.
- Huh? - What?
Like, you are cool.
Fabulous.
She is fabulous since the beginning.
Absolutely.
Stop it now.
Listen to me...
Yes?
Vinay is aging.
Working hard is okay...
Feed him well on time.
Let's go. Look at the time.
Bless you.
Have a long life.
Always be happy.
Yes.
Top your class, show it to your Papa and Grandpa.
Bless you.
Have a long life.
Come on.
Get in. Don't cry.
Papa, explain to her.
Let's go.

- Hey! - Hi.
Binny?
Binny!
What?
What the heck do you think of yourself, huh?
Are you some great love guru?
Yes, I like Dhruv.
But I was never dying without him.
I was okay and you knew I was okay.
You put this idea in my head.
You put him in my head. I was absolutely fine.
You really messed this up dude.
I never want to see your face in my whole life.
You're dead to me.
Thank you for this. For all of this. Thanks for ruining it...
One thing that was normal in my life.
Just thank you so very much.
We're done here.
I am sorry.
You're dead to me.
Sounds amazing, professor.
Offer us some tea, professor.
Have a seat, check the newspaper.
Hello madam?
These people won't leave without your tea.
With ginger.
Oh Sharda!
Sharda...?
Sharda.
See you upstairs.
Papa's missed call.
Hello Papa...
Saw your missed calls? Everything alright?
Things aren't alright.
What happened?
How do I explain?
Your mother nearly died.
Oh my god.
Her oxygen level had gone down to 80.
She looked all blue.
It was difficult, but we managed an oxygen cylinder
The doctor has advised to take her to the city.
She needs to be admitted to a good hospital.
He's said she needs intensive care for few days.
I am clueless what to do. Where to take her?
Papa, what's there to decide?
You get mother here to London, I will arrange for the tickets.
But my son...
The flight takes 8-9 hours.
What if something goes wrong while traveling?
Papa, don't worry about that
We'll arrange a sick bed in flight
I will get everything done.
I'll send the tickets for tomorrow.
Okay.
Okay, I'll make the preparations here.
Alright Papa, take care.
Bless you.
Vinay called up.
Okay.
He has called us to London.
That's good.
Binny! Open up.
What happened Mom?
Why are you sitting in the dark?
What happened?
You haven't eaten anything. Have you been sleeping?
Are you okay?
I'm okay.
Did you get your prelims schedule?
Because all other schools have got their schedule
I'll give it to when I get it. Why would I hide it from you?
Huh?
Just leave me alone. I'll talk to you later.
Excuse me?
You've been sitting here for two hours. What is this?
You don't tell us what's going on.
What do you want to hear Mom?
Binny?
Binny, have you been crying?
Mom, What is it? Stop touching me. Leave me...
Don't touch me right now.
Binny?
What happened?
Why are you shouting?
Dad just take her away
She's like irritating me man.
Okay, it's okay.
Papa just called.
Mom's health worsened. She's not well.
She is needing oxygen.
Is she stable?
Yes, at the moment. But...
She needs to be admitted in intensive care.
So what did you think?
I told Papa I'm sending tickets.
He will bring Mom to London.
The care will be good here.
The facilities are good here.
She'll feel more relaxed here.
Excuse me?
What do you mean?
You mean they are coming back?
Binny, Granny is not well.
Why don't you understand?
The doctor must have asked to admit her in intensive care...
Not to bring her to London.
What do you mean?
What I mean is Granny has the same old lungs issue. Right?
When she is here, she takes same old anti-biotics and nebulizer...
And she gets fine as if nothing happened.
What she needs is a good hospital And intensive care.
So why can't it be done in Patna?
State capital, big goddamn town
Why do they need to come here for everything?
Because...
I am here.
Aunt is in Patna.
It's not the same
Why is it not the same?
Because Papa can't stay with his daughter, to get Mom treated.
Are you kidding me right now?
What does that even mean?
Aunt is his daughter!
What is his patriarchal bullshit?
Binny, try to understand.
No Mom, why should I always adjust? Why me?
What do I ask from you two?
An 18 year old girl who can't even have own room with an attached bathroom
Like other girls am I asking for Balenciaga and Gucci brands?
Why do you flip so much on me?
You're just screwing up my life...
Shut up!
God damn...
Shut up!
What life of yours is being screwed?
I know it very well.
Your grandparents are coming here.
That's final.
Then fine. I'm leaving from here...
- To hell with you. - Yes. Just go.
Go, Please go... Please go.
Binny, wait.
Don't... Let her go.
Binny, wait...
This generation and their pressure tactics.
Let her go...
Let me call the police.
Oh, my God!
Binny!
Binny.
Why are you so stubborn? You never listen to anyone.
You know what? We have to be fair to Binny also, Vinay.
Do you even realise?
In formative years, we uprooted her...
From Pune, we put her straight into London's posh school.
She's a teenager, goddammit.
How did she adjust in last 5 years? Have you ever thought about it?
Has she ever made any demands like her rich friends?
Or asked for anything beyond our means?
She uses our clothes to design her own.
She needs just one thing from us...
Her own space...
Its not so hard for you to understand.
What wrong did she say?
Why can't Mom be treated in Patna?
Vehicles, guest houses, good doctors, good hospitals.
Everything is available there.
Everything can be managed.
If you take leave and go to Patna, what's the harm in it, Vinay?
It's not going to make you any lesser of a son.
But it's going to make you a more thoughtful husband and a better father.
Honestly I don't know today...
If we failed her as parents or she failed us as a daughter.
I don't care Vinay. She is our only child.
I don't want to lose her.
Vinay's rest is up to you.
Take some.
Take it.
That's better.
Take some rest.
Hello Papa.
Bless you.
How is mother doing?
She's stable.
So... What date are the flight tickets?
Yeah.
I spoke to Dr. Ghosh.
Discussed things in detail.
Okay?
What did Dr. Ghosh say?
He said it's not a problem to bring her.
There's no problem.
But he was saying...
That good treatment nearby works better for the old age.
The 8-10 hour long flight might pose a problem.
It's better if...
You were telling me about airlines doing it.
That they arrange it all for the patients.
That's true. They do that.
Oxygen cylinder is mostly available in it.
Hmm...
Okay.
Papa. The thing is...
Time, inconvenience...
Money... They are factors.
Yes, that's true.
But don't worry about the expenses.
I withdrew a 500 thousand rupees fixed deposit.
No, that's not what I meant.
There is no problem regarding money.
I was saying this...
She would get good treatment at Patna.
So...
Coming all the way here... It would be a problem.
Also it's an avoidable expense. You get what I'm saying?
Are you getting me?
Yes, you're right.
So, what next?
Where do we take her? In Patna?
Yes.
I made all the arrangements in Patna.
I have talked to everybody.
Also...
Stay is arranged in a guest house.
I will take a leave and come for sure.
Alright.
Okay son, talk to you later.
Take care.
Bless you.
I told Papa, Dr. Ghosh has suggested it.
Coming to London is not needed, treatment can happen in Patna.
Did you talk to Dr. Ghosh?
No...
I lied.
Yes, Mr. Gupta?
Yes, please book the 10:50 India flight.
Okay.
- Hello - How is mother?
She's improved a lot.
Dr. Sinha had come to see her.
Said she won't need ICU after couple of days...
She will be discharged in a week.
Sir, keep the file ready.
Bless you.
- Was the flight comfortable? - Yes.
Go, meet her.
Mom...
Mom, brother is here.
Mom.
Take it easy.
When did you come?
Just now.
Why did you take the trouble my son?
Came all the way.
Not a problem Mom.
Listen.
They talked to the doctor.
He said they will shift you to the ward in couple of days.
Get well soon.
I am outside.
Okay brother.
My dear.
He came from so far.
Make him eat something.
Alright.
Yes.
Hey, Binny.
What's up?
Where did you go last night?
People told me you came but didn't even say hi or anything.
My bad.
I had another party to attend.
Wow, how rude.
What other party?
Hello? director?
Can we just get on with the rehearsals?
Because that's what we're here for.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Okay guys, let's go.
Brother! Hello?
Mom got a heart attack.
They put her on ventilator.
- Hurry up. - When? Now?
Yes.
- Excuse me - Yes?
Why is mother on ventilator?
Sir, it's a cardiac arrest.
What?
The heart is revived but there's no brain activity.
We will keep her on ventilator for 24 hours.
How can you do this?
Let me explain.
There were complications.
When lungs are compromised there is more pressure on heart.
Over a period of time it gets very weak.
It can give up at some point.
especially in old age.
Come.
Come on.
Decision of not taking her to London...
Was it right?
Dr. Ghosh has treated her, he knows better..
♪ On this winter morning I thought it was going swell.♪
Mom, what are you doing here?
♪ And the sun was shining upon my wishing well.♪
Why are you in my room?
♪ But then the rain came down and the leaves fell.♪
Binny. Granny didn't make it.
What?
♪ And the summer evening I thought they were doing well.♪
♪ And the guests they came and the ladies looked so swell.♪
Mom?
If Granny had come to London...
She would have made it.
We don't know.
Tie the rope.
Pack up and get out of here.
It's been a long time.
Bring it around this way.
Tie it there.
Here, set the trap over there.
Tightly.
I'm sorry.
Brother.
We will sleep in the living room.
You sleep with Dad.
They can sleep in the other room.
Okay.
Can I sleep in Granpa's room?
I've talked to him.
The priest will be there.
Alright.
Brother...
Should I book three rooms?
You would be here?
Yes.
I will be here till immersion.
Radhika and Binny will leave for London tomorrow.
I was thinking...
After Binny's exams are over,
We will keep Papa with us in London.
Yes, of course.
These guys can visit this place once in a while.
But why?
Huh?
I mean, he can come with us now also.
It's your finals, my dear.
Think about it once
Mom, trust me. I will manage.
I just think he is really low right now,
And he really needs us.
Are you sure?
Hundred percent.
See what Granny got me...
Wow, nice, beautiful.
Dad, are you crazy? This is ridiculous.
I'm never going to wear it.
Listen...
You'll be with Binny, take care of her.
Hello.
I will help you.
Give me.
What happened, Papa?
First time in London...
Without her.
Beautiful weather, isn't it?
Bro, I'm sorry.
You only say I'm such an idiot...
Why would you? Like...
I swear, I just wanted what was the best for you.
I'm genuinely sorry.
Would you pass it only after I say sorry?
I saw your post, by the way.
It was so cute.
How old was she?
So many regrets I have.
Should never take moments for granted.
You know, the worst part is...
What?
I'm fully responsible for her death.
You?
Why would you feel responsible?
Dude, are you fine?
Say.
It's a very long story, some other time.
Bro, come on.
Second act today. Let's start with Sanaya's monologue, okay?
Sanaya, get into position.
Binny, I need to talk to you.
Not right now.
Sanaya?
Please get into position.
Guys?
Where is Sanaya?
Sanaya's not coming.
What do you mean by not coming?
I mean, she left the play.
She left the play.
We are one month away from the play finals...
And you're telling me she left the play?
She got some role in a Bollywood web series.
And it was absolutely not important to inform me or the school.
She told me to...
She told you.
Of course she told you. Who else would she tell?
Her cute puppy little follow-me-around boyfriend?
Look, I told her
Told her what Dhruv?
Oh babe, I'm so happy for your success.
I'm going to sit and plan another party to celebrate you.
Don't worry, we'll all be invited guys.
So will I, right?
We'll all come and celebrate her success, okay?
Because now... Chuck the play.
Binny.
What?
I tried.
I am sorry.
Yeah, me too.
No rehearsals today. Everyone do whatever the hell you want.
Hey.
Babe, it's fine. We will find someone else.
Everything will be sorted.
Hope so.
Here.
Grandpa.
The weather outside is good.
Let's take a walk?
No.
I am not in that mood.
I'll turn on the news for you?
Okay, take rest.
Bless you.
What's up?
I'm just thinking about Grandpa.
You know, yesterday even I got sentimental...
And I too called my grandparents.
Yeah?
Yeah man, but our whole conversation was just like...
How's my boy... Doing good.
How are your studies?
I'm doing it.
I mean bro...
See they are sweet people.
But even if I go chill with them...
What the hell am I supposed to talk to them about?
Exactly.
That's the problem, no?
Yes.
I don't understand how to open up Grandpa.
He's completely off... Mentally and emotionally.
And I really want to do something about it.
Tomorrow is his birthday.
Perfect. Let's do something.
But Dad...
Dad what?
Dad said don't bother him...
Don't annoy him, let him be.
Grandpa doesn't believe in birthdays.
What? What do you mean, doesn't believe in birthdays?
Birthday is not some religion, it's a fact.
Grandpa.
Happy birthday.
Thank you dear.
This is for you.
What was the need for it?
Open it and see for yourself.
Fits?
You don't wear ready-made shirts.
So your size wasn't there on your shirts.
So I had to measure it by hand.
I hope it fits you.
Come on, get dressed.
And then we'll cut the cake.
We'll go out roaming. Then we'll go to some nice place for lunch.
No my dear.
Birthdays are stuff for children.
It doesn't suit us old people.
Grandpa, no excuses.
It's your birthday and we are going. It's final.
No, no.
Check it better.
Yes, I saw it.
Now come on, get ready.
Let's go...
I said I won't go.
Why are you arguing?
What happened?
Nothing happened, carry on.
I got him a cake and a gift.
I told you...
Why don't you listen to me? I asked you not to do this.
You always say no to everything.
Grandpa will like this, do it. Grandpa will feel bad, don't do it.
What wrong did I do today?
Just look at him, Dad he's grieving.
He's upset, he's depressed
He's not okay, do you not see that?
I just wanted him to be happy
It's his birthday. Is that wrong?
Just go from here. Go.
Sorry Papa, she is immature.
Tell me...
What do we do?
Where do we go?
Tell me.

Thank you.
What have you ordered?
Grandpa, this is sauteed vegetables with mashed potato.
Boiled potato it is.
How much is it?
12 pounds.
1200 rupees?
This is daylight robbery.
Try it, it's very nice
Try it Grandpa, you'll like it.
What? This is so bland.
If you wish I can make it tasty in a minute.
Go ahead.
Binny's Granny's recipe.
Sure.
Hello sir.
I want some salt
Some mustard oil.
Mustard oil.
And little green chilly
- Chilli? - Chilly.
Mustard oil and green chillies please.
Thank you.
I said the same thing.
I have to record this for my Insta.
Alright guys, it's your boy B.P.
We are out here in this fancy restaurant... You know how I roll.
Today I have a private chef.
And he is going to whip up some cool vintage dish from Bihar.
It's called... Umm...
Aloo ka chokha.
As you whites say... Aloooo kaaa choka.
Anyways...
Let me give you guys a sneak peek into this.
Let me first make it.
Grandpa, it's live.
Be it live or dead...
You can eat it only when it's done.
We love our chef's sense of humour.
Now eat and tell me.
Let her eat too.
It's lit.
It's good.
Bro.
Our food is also here.
Thank you Grandpa, it's amazingly good.

Whatever the idiot is smoking...
Tell him to quit it.
Otherwise his lungs would turn black.
Okay
Grandpa, now you need to set your user-name.
Professor SN?
Yes, Professor SN.
Account created.
Okay?
Now I'll follow you
Then you'll follow me back.
Okay.
Grandpa, you have 20 follow requests!
Show me.
Sanjay Singh 3302.
Yes, he was with us in English.
So follow him back, he has requested you.
How?
Here.
So the touchstone fellow gets angry.
He shouts, get out of my way you idiot.
What happened?
No, the way you told it...
I was actually imagining...
Touchstone calling him an idiot.
Focus on studies.
Sorry Grandpa.
Show me your glasses.
Why does it have G written on it?
Because you are Gujarati?
Your tea.
Thank you.
Etiquette classes?
Oh my dear.
Why though?
We love you the way you are.
It's not for you, it's for me.
Now that I'm staying here...
So it's better to learn the ways of this world.
- Really? - Yes.
Don't tell your Mom Papa about this.
We'll surprise them someday.
Done.
High five on that.
Never stir it and create whirlpool in the cup...
What we need to be doing...
Is just stir it...
With a 12 o'clock, 6 o'clock motion...
Back and forth. Back and forth.
One should not blow on the tea...
Or you should not bend down.
You should just take the cup in front of your face
Keep the cup upright.

How about it?
It's very good. You will like it.
Hey, Binny.
Hey!
Oh, hi.
Need a hand with that?
No, I'm good, thank you.
Hey, about the play
I had this really cool suggestion.
You can post it on the group.
Okay...
Okay, see you. Peace.
Sure.
Bye bro.
Someone you know?
Not really.
Sitting outside my dear?
In such a cold?
Just like that.
So late in the night?
Come, sit.
Yes.
There is a saying, only two kinds stay up in the nights...
First are the owls...
The other is...
What you call them... Lovestruck ones.
You don't seem to be any of the two.
I am not.
Why?
I don't know.
I think... Love... Affection...
These are just overrated concepts.
Physical attraction between two people...
People call it Love.
Don't you think so?
No.
I do not.
This body is just a means...
Not the end...
To find love.
That's why all legendary love stories...
Their ending is tragic.
Some have happy endings too.
You mean, their love is not love?
Those lovers who get married?
What ending would be more tragic than marriage?
Grandpa, you're just too cool, man.
But seriously...
Tell me.
Why all legendary love stories are tragic?
Like, what's the concept behind it?
Writers...
They see Love as a divine concept.
Tragic endings are their way to make us realize...
That love is between two souls.
There is no need for physical body.
There is no need for a union.
Love transcends all physical boundaries.
So you mean...
Love... It's not about bondage...
But it's about freedom?
This feeling of bondage that we see...
That's our weakness.
That's true.
Which is where we fail in love.
How does one succeed in love?
By not expecting anything in return.
You know the name of Lord Krishna's wife?
Radha.
No my dear.
His wife's name was Rukmani.
And yet...
The love of Radha and Krishna is considered to be eternal.
I literally did not know that.
Did you understand?
Hmm.
Come on. You will catch a cold.
Hey Dhruv.
Hey.
Coffee?
Yeah?
- Yeah! - Sure.
Hey, so I wanted to apologise.
For what?
This entire play thing...
Not at all.
In fact, I am sorry.
I reacted a bit much.
A bit?
Teeny tiny bit... Yeah.
No, but...
It's ok to go over the top for things you care about.
It's pretty cool that you care about this play so much.
How's Sanaya?
I wouldn't actually know.
Yeah, she broke up with me
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to intrude.
No, no, no... Don't be.
I'm pretty sure she only started dating me to intern with Mom.
That's so mean...
That's such a mean thing to say.
So I watched Inception, finally...
Proud of you. What did you think?
Thank you
I had no idea what was going on throughout the whole film.
So they're done?
Yup.
So where does that put you guys?
Are you all a couple?
Are you all a thing?
Are you all in the talking stage?
Like, what's the stitch, bro?
There's no stitch.
Then?
Just chilling.
We're not labeling anything
Some boyfriend. Relationship. Not all that crap.
Just chilling...
Going with the flow.
That's mature, man.
Something you'll never be.
You been smoking some good stuff.
Bro, I'm shocked.
Hey, bro? You're mad or what?
Stop smoking.
Just because you're high on Dhruv doesn't mean...
Bro, please, It's Versace man.
Your lungs would turn black.
- Wow. - Is this Professor?
- What's up, Professor? - How are you?
You are looking very smart.
Why?
Wasn't I smart earlier?
Wow.
Here...
See, my granddaughter.
Hello Uncle.

Nice.
Wow.
Bro, this play...
You finished it?
Yeah, bro, The Indian Summer. It's so emotional...
Yeah?
What else do you think?
How did you write this?
You're not so emotional.
You wrote on your periods or something bro?
- What did you just say? - Don't... Versace man.
All right, guys.
So, as you are aware...
Binny has proposed a new play...
For the finals, which she just wrote.
I submitted that to the committee.
And...
They loved it!
Okay, okay...
We have got a month to prepare.
Alright? So good luck.
Alright?
Thank you.
Thank you... Thanks guys.
Where's Benny?
Don't know. Call her.
Not needed.
She told me, she will go to play Fifa after the school...
To her Gujarati friend's place.
Ohh... Actually her sociology assignment's deadline is close.
Yeah.
She finished it two days in advance.
Guys, guys, guys...
I have an announcement to make.
You're literally not going to believe it.
So... For the finals of inter-school theatre competition...
Our school selected a new play
Okay.

Yours truly, Bindiya Singh
Wow!
Now that's Wonderful.
Yes, congrats!
- Thanks guys... But, who gets this credit? - Well done, baby.
- Who? - Who?
Guess.
To Grandpa.
To me?
What did I do?
You inspired me
What do you mean?
You'll know after you see it.
Okay... Then I'll have to see it.
Hello? What do you mean?
You have to see it irrespective.
Beware. No excuses. You have to see it.
Where else would I go? I will definitely come to it.
- Now have your food. - Yes.
Wow. This tastes really good.
What spices did you put in it?
My secret ingredient is love.
Very good.
Pass me the spoon for sweets.
This?
We do not have dessert spoon?
Guys...
Grandpa has joined etiquette classes.
And now he's fully trying to show off In front of you all.
From tea to cake, I have learned to have everything properly.
In foreign style.
I graduated from the class yesterday.
Papa, you are so...
Great?
Correct!
English.
And this is Hindi.
One word. Correct?
Your grandfather seems like an interesting person.
Very interesting.
I can understand your inspiration much better now.
Grandpa, your fresh lime soda.
What is this?
Fresh lime soda.
- Lemon juice in water. Right? - Yes Lemon juice.
- With Soda. - Enjoy, sir.
I taught Grandpa Charades.
Let's play Charades.
I am down.
Me and Grandpa one team.
You and Dhruv one team.
Let's do it. Who's going first?
Grandpa.
Alright, come Grandpa.
Yes.
I'll guess it.
Come on Grandpa, you got this.
Hindi movie.
Udaas?
- Nice. - Khamosh?
Behosh?
Brilliant acting. Honestly.
Too good.
You didn't even tell how many words?
At least tell me that.
Committed!
Guys?
Wait what?
Grandpa... Grandpa?
- Bro, call someone. - Grandpa?
Can someone call the ambulance right now.
Dr. Ghosh?
Hello Uncle.
I was at ER supervision.
That's how I found out.
Better.
Low BP. Nothing to worry.
He'll be fine.
Come.
Uncle, your blood sugar is quite low.
Pay attention to your diet.
I'm prescribing the medicines.
Be regular.
Thank you.
Uncle. Don't be so formal.
You scared the kids though.
So Uncle, how's Aunty?
Actually...
Granny passed away.
Oh!!
Sorry... When did this happen?
Huh?
A month and a half back.
Back then...
When Vinay talked to you about bringing her to London...
You suggested that's not necessary...
That it's better to get treatment in Patna.
Really?
But... Vinay didn't talk to me about this.
I was in the US for family holidays.
Must be some miscommunication...
Here is the prescription, get it from the pharmacy.
I'll get the medicines.
Dr. Sukhi will give you the rest of medicines.
Be careful. Take care of yourself.
Hello. Grandpa left.
What do you mean, Grandpa left?
Don't know. He didn't say anything.
He just got up and he left... I don't know.
Shit!
What happened?
Let's leave, we have to get home right now.
Let's go.
Yes, Binny?
Hello Mom... Why isn't Dad answering the phone?
Where is he? Where are you?
I just got out of a meeting and I'm just leaving. What happened?
Big problem. Just come home right now and get him also.
Papa?
Papa, what are you doing?
Where are you going?
Papa?
Papa, please say something.
Why are you silent... Tell me.
Papa...
Listen to me please... What you're thinking is wrong.
Papa... Please talk.
Please, listen to me.
Lets talk once... I won't let you leave like this.
Please. Grandpa please...
It's wasn't Dad's fault. It was mine.
Please...
Yes... Dad lied.
Because I didn't want you guys to come here.
I wasn't in a stable frame of mind when he said you were coming back.
And then I reacted in a way I absolutely shouldn't have.
I left the house because I was immature...
I thought Granny takes antibiotics, nebulizer here and becomes all fine.
I thought Dad was overreacting about Granny's illness.
I accept that I was wrong...
And trust me, I regret it every single day.
If Dad is at any fault...
It was keeping no healthy space in relationship with you.
If you want to punish him, punish him for this fault...
He harbored fear for you in the name of respect...
He ignored all the problems we faced because of your trips.
We all had to present ourselves in a way that you don't judge us.
Look at this.
Grandpa, this is what I am.
This is what I am...
This hangs outside my door.
Whenever you come. We take it off.
The bookshelf in the hall is not a bookshelf, it is a bar.
It otherwise has scotch bottles.
Please... Don't leave.
Just listen to me...
I've made a very big mistake. If you don't want to stay back, I completely understand.
This bond that you and I have gotten in the past few days...
I've never felt this in my whole life.
You never lived with us, I didn't know the warmth of having a grandfather around
The stories you tell me. The moments we shared. I've never felt this before.
You used to come for 2 months...
I used to get irritated because I had no room.
I had to change my habits, I had to change everything.
And then you used to leave and my life would just become normal.
What we share now is different. You know that.
You know that.
I'm really sorry... I really love you.
Just don't leave us.
I beg you... Just don't go.
I'll do whatever you say, I'm really sorry.
My mistake. I'm going to regret this for the rest of my life.
I promise you... I just don't want you to go from here.
I'm really sorry...
No, no.
It's fine.
It's fine, baby.
What's the age?
75.
Why don't you tell me the name?
Kalavati Devi.
Yes, Kalavati.
'I'm really sorry... I really love you.'
'Just don't leave us.'
'I'm really sorry... I really love you.'
'Just don't leave us.'
I've made a mistake. It's my fault.
I didn't know the warmth of having a grandfather around.
I didn't want you to guys to come here.
What we have shared is just different and you know that Grandpa.
And trust me I regret it every single day.
Whatever you say I'm really sorry... It's my mistake...
I'm going to accept that I was wrong...
Because I didn't want you to come here.
Just don't leave us.
Guys...
Spotlight will center on her.
We'll slowly fade out.
We hear her sobbing and then curtain drops.
Clear?
Clear.
- Binny? - Hmm?
Do you want to end with her crying?
Yeah.
Bro, I'm sorry, I don't understand this ending.
What's there to understand?
I want an open ending.
Simple.
Binny? Are you sure?
Look, I know this story is personal to you but...
Let's take some artistic liberty.
Yeah... Give a cute ending, like a Karan Johar film.
It's all about loving your grandparents.
Why guys?
Life doesn't have happy endings.
So why do we want happy endings in stories?
I want it to be real.
I want people to feel the pain of the loss.
There's no sugar-coating.
Okay?
Dhruv, on your mark.
I don't want to waste time with this.
Winning someone over and then losing them again...
It's worse than losing a loved one...
Often...
When you think you've found all the answers...
Life changes the question itself.
But I haven't lost hope...
One day I will definitely find the answer to this as well.
I firmly believe that someday...
My Grandpa, my best friend...
...will come back.
Hello everyone.
First of all.
Thank you for this honour.
A legendary filmmaker once said.
Most personal is most creative.
So if you found our play creative...
Sensitive...
Then it's because it is personal.
Very personal.
My grandfather and I.
We never tried to change each other.
We just spent time together, as friends...
And felt the change within ourselves.
Spending time with him made me realise that...
With time fashion and technology changes...
Lifestyle changes...
But life doesn't change.
Took me a long time to figure this one.
I hope you guys figure it sooner.
One thing I would like to tell all of you here...
Spend time with your grandparents.
Sit with them.
Talk to them.
Laugh with them.
And I promise you they will really really surprise you.
Because obviously, Google doesn't have every answer.
Thank you.
Foolish girl...
Stop feeling responsible for your Granny's death...
Understood?
Or else you will get a slap from me.
Hello Uncle. After checking Aunty's reports and line of treatment in detail...
I can say with complete belief that her death was because of heart failure.
Not because of the lack of treatment. It could have happened anywhere.
Guys... Grandpa has emailed me.
What?
I don't know...
Read it.
Should I call him?
Yes, go ahead!
How?
Grandpa.
Yes, the play was great.
Did you see the play?
Yes... It was great.
But a happy ending would have been better.
What do you mean?
Stop fooling around. Grandpa, where are you?
My dear. You shouldn't just look ahead.
Sometimes, you should also look back.
No way... Oh my god.
Hello, Oh my god.
Grandpa, I can't believe... How?
And I got here...
- Papa? - Look who is here.
Bless you.
What?
You guys never hugged each other?
Vinay.
This is... definitely a selfie moment.
Let me wipe my tears.
Grandpa has learned it all.
Each generation...
They think of themselves smarter than the earlier one...
And wiser than the next...
This leads to misunderstandings...
And misunderstandings lead to distance...
And the increasing distance can turn into tragedy.
I understood this quite late...
We oldies don't often understand things easily.
I taught my son all his life...
I never thought, at 68 years of age...
I would be learning from my 18 year old grand daughter.
She taught me about the gap between two generations...
More the communication gap...
The generation gap would be wider.
So I changed myself...
No, not for the children...
But for my own self.
We have the experience and they have the energy.
When I tasted life through their ways...
I found lot of fun in life...
I understood it all...
Life can have an expiry date...
But enjoying life has no expiry date.
Well, I wish my wife...
She was here to share this life with me.
I felt that life is like a Facebook.
Certain dreams... You like.
Certain complaints...
You unfriend.
Certain relationships...
You unblock.
And then...
Send a request to life...
A friend request.
I sent it too...
And life accepted my friend request.
So thank you, this younger generation...
For letting us peep into your life.
As they say in their own language...
Dude, you rock!
Sick, dad.
Sick means unwell.
Cheers, dad.
