- I loved it

"Your biscuits were nice

too, sister-in-law"

"They were from my shop.

- This is for you, Radha"

Aunt! What a pleasant surprise!

"Do come again, okay?

- Very well. Good bye"

Aunt!

"Tell me what you'll have.

Tea, coffee?"

I don't want anything

Do these people come

even to your house?

They hadn't seen me in a

long time and came over...

to ask about my well-being.

But tell me how you have been!

"I'm all right.

- Hello, sister-in-law"

How many eggs?

- 6. Keep them in the refrigerator

"Be careful, don't break the eggs.

- Very well, sister-in-law"

"What's happening here, Priya?

Vegetable sellers and egg sellers!"

Are these the only people left

in your life?

"Hello, Lady. Your clothes.

- You got my sari, Ganpat?"

Of course.

- All right. Keep it here

I'll take it in later.

- Very well. Good bye

Good bye

Priya! You even know

your laundryman's name?

"Yes, aunt"

What kind of a life

are you leading?

What have you come to?

And I had such dreams for you

"There's nothing of the sort, aunt.

I'm very happy here"

I'm starting my work

all over again and...

"Raj is landing a new contract too.

- What new contract, Priya"

"I've been hearing that for ages!

Anyway, I've made up my mind"

I've brought you

two tickets to Greece

Go and have a holiday

"But how can I accept it, aunt?

I'm already married"

Why can't you accept it?

I'm like your mother

And a mother can give her daughter

anything and any amount she wants to

You get that? It's her right

"The large-hearted one

will leave with the bride..."

"Raj doesn't like my song and...

- No, Nandu. Go ahead and sing"

Can I? Even in the night?

- You may sing all night

So I'm going to sing

for Raj tonight!

"Raj, you sing so well too.

Join me in the nights"

"I'm all alone.

- Some other time, Nandu"

"Tonight, I have a programme

for romance"

Really?

You provide the background music

and I'll get on with the romance

Is this Mr Raj Mathur's house?

"Yes, but he's not in right now"

What's the hurry? It's wonderful

that Raj Mathur is not at home

Let me shut the door...

- You?

I'm your immediate neighbour.

The building opposite yours...

"third floor, third window.

- Oh yes, I've seen you"

And I saw you watching

Know what? I've been waiting

for this opportunity for many days

Frankly speaking... so was I

"What do you mean by "so was l"?

What?"

I'll explain

What are you doing?

- Taking advantage

What advantage?

- He hasn't any time from his trucks

Lay off! Doesn't he have

to work and make money?

Let him make money. You come inside.

- With a stranger...

"What's all this, Priya?

You're kidding, aren't you?"

Mr Neighbour!

I've never seen you

in this light before

"I'm very happy today, Raj.

- Always be happy"

But not with the neighbour

I've got to give you 2 bits

of good news

Give me the second one first

"Remember, I sent my designs

to an Australian company?"

They've approved

And listen to the second

good news

Tickets for Greece. Look

Tickets for Greece?

You've won a jackpot?

Aunt Anna gifted it to us

Aunt Anna?

"Since we haven't been on a honeymoon,

she asked us to visit Greece, Raj"

What happened?

- Well... one second

What happened?

- One second

"Nothing.

- What happened, Raj? Tell me"

"Priya, if you don't mind,

let me tell you something"

"We'll surely go to Greece,

but with our own money, okay?"

"But this is our money too.

- No, it isn't our money"

It's Aunt Anna's money.

- But aunt's like our mother too

"No, Priya. For you, she is.

Not for me"

Why're you making a prestige

issue out of this?

"C'mon, Priya! It hasn't to do

with prestige, honestly"

So what is it?

- What is it?

I'll tell you what it is

I've always got the feeling

that your folks...

are not very happy with our marriage.

That's how I feel

They probably think that if you

had got married to Sameer...

he could have given you everything

that I haven't been able to

And that's right too. There's

no question of prestige at all

"Raj, I think you haven't been able

to understand me at all"

Did I ever say anything

in this regard to you?

No.

- Did I ever complain?

So why must you misunderstand?

- Don't raise your voice!

You're the one who doesn't

get it right

You are the one they want

to send away on a holiday

You are the one they pity

You are the one they want to

see happy... not me or us

They've got to tolerate me because

I am unfortunately their son-in-law!

I don't know why you

take things to such limits!

You think of things

that make no sense!

Makes no sense?

For you it must be senseless

"For me, it's a truth

I feel every day..."

"May we end this discussion here?

- Yes, please!"

Are you going to sleep?

"Trouble with Priya again?

- No, no trouble with Priya"

"No, you do have trouble with her.

- Okay, okay"

"Last night, I had another

argument with Priya. Happy?"

Happy my foot!

Now listen to me

"When we buy a new truck, we have

a few problems initially, don't we?"

What are you talking about?

- Hear me out first!

"A new truck also stalls

when it heats up, doesn't it?"

"All right, it does.

- So what do we do?"

Don't we shut it down

and start it again?

So there's not much difference

between a truck and marriage

They ask for a bit of adjustment

which you've got to make...

and carry the story further. Right?

- How does one take it further?

Silly arguments! Are marriages

and trucks like each other?

Isn't it her fault too?

- Now get one thing clearly

"Between man and wife, never try to

find out who's right and who's wrong"

Just say sorry and finish

the matter there and then

That's what I always do.

- I'm prepared to say sorry too

"I don't like fighting,

I don't want to fight"

"But the same rule applies

to her also, doesn't it?"

"Now look, now don't split hair.

I know the problems with you"

What's my problem? What?

- Want me start counting?

"I know, Manubhai. There are

problems with me too"

That's exactly why I am asking

you to take my advise

"What am I to do, Manubhai?

- Go to Priya today..."

like the perfect husband.

The ideal husband

Ideal?

- Like me

Is it funny?

"Priya, I got this gourd,

ladyfinger, carrot..."

and other stuff from the vendor.

And this one too

I'll put all this in

the refrigerator

That is where it is kept

I bought it all

from the wholesale shop

The vendor there took me for a fool

"I asked him for the price of carrots

and he says "30 rupees for a kilo"

"I asked him to give it at 20 rupees,

or I was leaving"

He gave it to me at once

How much would you buy it for?

- 10 rupees a kilo

But this is fresh... and red

"If there are any chores to

be done, just tell me"

I'll wash these utensils.

I'm in the mood today

I forgot to tell you about the office.

Manubhai came calling today

He had a cup of tea

and went his way

Mohammadbhai also came calling.

He had a cup of tea and...

he went his way too

And then came Vivek.

He asked me for two trucks
