Just give me 5 minutes, guys.

Wait, are you Roshan?

Just have a seat over there?

Okay.

- Alright.

- Thanks.

- How did they know?

- God only knows.

And, I know.

Because I Tweeted.

The free food trial in Kerala...

I uploaded those pictures as well.

- Really.

- And, geo-tagged the bus as well.

- So that people can follow our route.

- Wow...

You know, along with your school fee...

...I should pay your

consultation fee as well.

Thank you.

Try... your first Rottza.

Boss, I'll start taking the orders.

Sorry, guys. We're closing.

How can you close an open bus?

Only dressed decently.

- Rowdies.

Raghu Dixit.

The musician who sings in a 'lungi'.

Roshan Kalra,

Nazrul, we must have

something lying around.

Cook something up.

Truly appreciate it man.

But before that,

can we get a selfie with you?

- Sure.

- Aah, good plan.

- That was quite a punch, sir.

- No-no...

Sir, we don't want a smile...

...give me that crazy

look from the video.

Like when you punched him.

I...

- Go ahead.

- Thank you.

Sure.

It's not his cooking,

it's his temper that's famous!

Roshan sir,

Wow! The reviews and

comments are fantastic.

- All thanks to you.

- Congratulations, boss.

- So, where to now?

- What do you mean?

The plan was to park in Delhi, right?

We're not like this tree...

...that, we'll have to

stand where our roots are.

The roots of a tree are in the ground...

...and a mans, in his head.

- Can you please tell mom too?

- Oh s

I completely forgot.

Call her.

I can't explain like you.

Don't be silly,

I won't be able explain at all.

- Hello.

- Somebody's having a lot of fun.

- You bet.

- But Ary's school starts next week.

Don't worry, he'll be with you soon.

Fully trained by his dad.

- That's what scares me.

- "Forget your worries and have fun."

"Get into the groove and have fun."

"Have fun without a care."

"Have fun..."

"Steal the night away and have fun."

"Give it all you got and have fun."

"Have fun without a care."

"Have fun... and sing along."

Alex?

Alex?

Alex?

"No need to look all over the world..."

"...the keys are in your pocket,

and will open all the locks."

"If you listen to me, then soon..."

"...you will find your shore."

"And, even if you don't...

let go of your worries""

"... and sing along with me."

"Forget your worries and have fun."

"Get into the groove and have fun."

"Have fun without a care."

"Have fun..."

"Steal the night away and have fun."

"Give it all you got and have fun."

"Have fun without a care."

"Have fun... and sing along."

- Just like the food at the toddy shop!

- Oh, shut up.

- Congratulations, Roshan returns.

- Thank you.

- All thanks to your advice.

- Who is that?

- Is that Armaan?

- Hang on, say hello.

- Say... Hi.

- Hello.

- Hi.

- Hi.

Papa's friend.

I am very lucky to have friends

like her who give good advice.

She's only giving advice,

but I am working with you here.

- Oh, come on man.

- Vinny. Galli is no good.

Climb out and join us at the Raasta.

No-no, if I come down there...

...even my sense of humour

will become like his.

Like you.

That Manori has you

tied up with dollars.

Break free, this is life.

- Get out.

- Yeah-yeah...

Hang on.

So, Rosh, how is it going?

So far so good.

Next Delhi.

And you know, me and Delhi, so...

Haven't you been checking your mails?

Not recently, why?

Greg sent an offer for you...

They are looking for a

Chef de Cuisine for the Shanzi.

Really?

You haven't replied

and they are waiting.

But, I haven't even reached Delhi yet.

I am sure there will

be many more offers, Roshan.

- I'll tell him that you may not...

- No-no!

Let me go through his email first.

Okay.

God to go. Take care.

"Have fun..."

"Have fun..."

"Have fun..."

"Have fun..."

What? Keema Rottza.

Hurry up, guys. Keema Rottza.

- Paneer Rottza.

- How many Keema Rottza?

- Four.

- Okay.

Move, move...

Shut down this bus.

- What happened, mister?

- Shut it down.

Why? What's the problem?

Do you have any permission for this...

...or, are you treating

this like your own property.

How could I dare to park my bus in your

area without permission, Chaudhary sir?

Are you mimicking me?

I am Delhi boy.

Then someone talks to me like this...

...the accent comes out automatically,

Chaudhary sir.

Here's the permission.

- All India permit, huh?

- Yes...

Fine, move your bus.

- What?

- Move your bus.

Look, this is a residential area.

People keep complaining all the time,

because they get disturbed.

And, if we don't take action...

...they think we've taken bribe.

But, you haven't taken anything.

- Exactly.

- Come to the side.

- Here you go, Chaudhary sir.

- You're a smart man.

Fine, continue doing your business.

I'll see you.

Well... come on, Alex.

- All okay.

- Yeah, its fine. They are like that.

Papa, why did you bribe him?

You were right and he was wrong.

That's not strictly true, Ary.

It's almost impossible

to be 100 percent right.

And, he could've created

problems for us, you know.

But that's wrong.

We'll have to do it again next time.

And, he'll expect the

same from others as well.

- That's the system here.

- Because we let it be.

He's right,

you shouldn't have paid him.

He would've created a scene.

Good words don't feed them,

they eat money.

So just because that's the way it is,

we've to do the same thing?

Okay look, Ary.

If you ask me is bribing right,

then no. I mean, in theory no.

Sometimes things are not

as easy as it looks, you know.

Aren't you supposed

to be my role model?

Yes.

But there are so many

amazing people around you.

Like your mom.

You can ask her tomorrow.

- Tomorrow?
