I like this proposal...

...because I really liked you.

But do you...

I mean they never asked...

What happened?

What are you doing? - Nothing.

Normal. Normal.

Mrs. Dixit.

Meenaxi's marriage has been fixed.

It's been fixed.

I liked your parents.

Very simple they are.

- 75,000!

Please tell me.

Do you like me?

You are really nice, but...

...l...

Look, you can clearly

say whatever you want to.

No, he's the only child.

We just met 10 minutes ago so, I...

Take a chance... parents...

I can understand. I can understand.

Look, I...

Meenaxi, congrats!

Madhav. Madhav, I am Nana.

Your brother-in-law.

Your engagement's been fixed.

We've even booked the hall.

We've discussed everything

with your parents.

- Come on, Nana.

Can't you wait for two months?

The marriage is two months later.

We've a request, son.

It's not right to enter

their room without knocking.

East or west, Madhav is the best!

No, it's nothing.

I am leaving.

- Okay, fine.

Oh no.

...5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10...

...11, 12, 13, 14... 15!

Engagement.

Oh no!

Get up, it's eight thirty.

You will never make it

in anything in your life on time.

Surya.

Surya, the cooking gas is over.

Get up, go to the agency to book it.

Surya.

I am fed up with you.

Surya, look at me.

Surya, look at me,

I am talking to you.

Look at you, you are never home.

No sense of responsibility, nothing.

How much do you expect

from me at this age?

Suriya, this is not what your

father wanted our home to be like.

He has worked hard for you, for me...

...so that all of us can

live happily in this city.

I have to work now.

Why don't you leave that...

...painting class and decide

something about your future.

Every week, same thing to talk.

Water.

No point in talking

to people like you.

Now please leave some money for me.

Did you forget something?

You always forget things.

Hello, aunt.

Look, aunt.

I've such beautiful saris.

Mepakshi,

Pochampalli, Benaras, Kanjivaram.

Take a look. Such pretty saris.

And at half the rate. Half the rate.

Is this the time to buy saris?

I don't want your saris.

Get lost.

Aunt. Aunt. Aunt.

You've a sad story, dear.

The things women have

to do to run their home.

So, did your father

never try to find you...

...after leaving you at the orphanage?

May God bless him...

...wherever he is.

And you?

Your family, grandchildren.

I don't have any

family or grandchildren.

All I have is a son.

I wonder when he'll get married?

Wait here, I'll be right back.

Child.

Where were you?

Here. Have some coffee

before you leave.

You will like it.

Dear. Are you married?

No.

What type of daughter-in-law

are you looking for?

Who would be foolish enough

to give us their daughter?

We aren't what we were before.

I wonder when and how

my son will get married.

I wonder if making paintings

lands him a job or not?

What are you saying, aunt?

These painters... look

just like Guru Dutt in college.

Cigarette in one hand, cruel world.

Torn clothes.

Broken hearts.

And once they pass out,

they turn into Aamir Khan.

Surya will surely become Aamir Khan.

How do you know his name?

Where did you see his paintings?

Do you have water

supply 24 hours a day?

How many children do you have?

How many rooms do you have?

Who cooks in your house?

Do you want dowry?

What type of daughter-in-law

are you looking for?

Modern daughter,

who goes out and works...

...or the ones that sit at home,

like in television serials.

Do you stay here or do

you keep visiting Tamil Nadu?

Maa, open the door. Quick.

He's back.

Must have forgotten something.

Move.

Maa, I'm getting late.

What?

Why are you waving?

Get lost.

Oh my! I was waiting for you.

I know.

By the way, what films do you like?

Meaning?

I like what everyone else does.

And you?

- Well...

I'm a bit old-fashioned

when it comes to films.

Why?

- Don't know.

But violent, revenge stories,

I don't like these things.

Do you know who my

favourite actors are?

Farooq Shaikh and Deepti Naval.

Have you seen their films?

No.

Who's Deepti Naval?

Deepti Naval!

Deepti Naval...

You must watch her films.

I will show you.

I mean...

...we'll watch their films together.

Such amazing chemistry between them.

Oh, my God! Out of this world.

And... that's my idea

of an ideal romance.

Then I'll have to watch those movies.

What did they do in the films?

- Nothing.

Nothing?

I mean... they were ordinary people.

Just like our neighbours.

No makeup or glossy designer clothes.

They didn't wear designer clothes.

- Never.

What were they doing in films?

And... and there wasn't much

singing and dancing in their films.

No songs and dance?

They had songs.

And... they conveyed

their expression...

...this way.

Through their eyes.

And Deepti Naval.

Deepti Naval! Oh, my God!

Since I saw you... I realised.

Since I saw you... I realised.

Life's blazing sun,

and you're the cool shade.

The heart...

- Expressed a desire again.

The heart expressed a desire again.

Once again I explained my heart.

Once again I explained my heart.

Life's blazing sun,

and you're the cool shade.

Since I saw you... I realised.

Meenaxi

Are you always this quiet?

No, it's not that.

I'm the only one

talking since evening.

Fine. I'll leave.

Madhav.

Thank you.

What for?

You're the first boy

to ask what I wanted.

What I felt.

I...

- So?

I... actually...

No.

It's nothing.

And thank you for singing that song.

Without you, I will die...

Stop the serial, and start cartoons.

Tell me! Tell me!

Mother-in-law.

Nandini's going to

rise from the dead today.

Meenaxi

Meenaxi

What is it, mother?

What did you two do?

Where did you go?

What did you two eat?

I swallowed two dozens

of sleeping pill.

And a bottle of Dettol.

And if I still don't die...

...l'm going to jump in front

of the moving train tomorrow.

Or else set myself,

you, this house, neighbours on fire.

Or I'll turn into a witch

and cast a spell on everyone.

What's happening with my life?

Oh, God! She's so dramatic.

God.

Meenakshi,

you're going to get engaged soon.

And then marriage.

I need time to think.

- Fine, think.

Until then I'll boil the milk.

Mom, I need time to

think about the engagement.

You can think about it

even after your engagement.

What's the point in

thinking about it now?

Right now,

quit yourjob and get a facial.

Tomorrow we're visiting

Madhav's place.

To see your home.

Which isn't yours yet,

but soon it'll be.

The darling of this house.

Have you put on Pogo channel?

My...

Bring it...

With the breeze...

With the breeze...

- 26.

Let me come inside.

Actually, we're building a

double bed for Madhav and Meenaxi

Madhav used to sleep alone

on a single bed until now.

And now...

Say your dialogue...

Where is Madhav?

Shall I prepare tea and 'pohe'?

Madhav.

Our Madhav is like that.

Once he takes some job in his hand,

he will surely complete it.

He is here.

Oh! You all have come?

Father. Why didn't you tell me?
