Synopsis: 37-year old Mumbai-based Amar Kaul lives a middle-classed lifestyle with his deaf and widowed mother, and is employed as an Accounts Manager with Suraj Pharmaceuticals. His boss, Dasgupta, who is always snacking, abuses him, and often makes him not only work late but also asks him to finish work at home. After going through a medical check-up for an upset stomach, he is told that he has third stage cancer and has only a few months to live. He then sets about to prepare a 10-item 'to do' list which include buying a car; visiting his friend, Dr. Rajiv Jhukla, in Russia; taking guitar lessons; confessing his true feelings to Neha Banot; as well a plan for getting back at Dasgupta. He does not know the shock and trauma that await him when he sets about to complete this final task - and the impact this news will have on his mother.

...that he can't even talk to

his brother for two minutes?

Selfish person.

Go to hell all of you.

Has the connection got cut off?

What has happened to our T. V?

This is too much now.

This Amar... he doesn't

even charge the battery.

And all the...

Action.

I... I... have mother.

I know that she is constable

Kallu's mother.

Chintu's mother. Pappu's mother.

But mother is after all a mother.

You are strange.

Suresh sir, just a second. Sorry.

Give sir the script.

- Yes.

Yes, tell me.

Mama is fine, isn't she?

Okay!

Thank you.

It's very hot.

And there is a lot of traffic too.

How is your shooting going?

- Fine.

Mama watches your serials a lot.

Where is mama?

She has gone to the temple.

Vivek, why don't you

keep mama with you?

Keep her with me!

Why? Is mama feeling to

affectionate towards me?

She is your mama too.

And she feels like staying

with you too.

Look, mother is growing old...

...and we have some responsibilities.

Just a minute, brother.

It is your responsibility too.

Which responsibility

did you fulfill?

Who broke the relations?

Me or you?

Just forget what happened?

Vivek, it happens.

It happens in a family.

It happens in every home.

Brother, your family doesn't

throw you out of the house...

...for one mistake.

And what was the mistake?

I didn't do anything wrong.

I married the girl I loved.

And Dorice and I are very happy.

I agree, whatever happened

was very wrong.

And I am happy to know that you

are very happy with Dorice.

But, what about mama?

Listen to me.

I want mama to stay with

you for a few days.

Brother, but I don't want it.

Why don't you?

Why don't you want it?

Isn't it your responsibility?

Aren't you her son?

That's strange.

What has mama done for me?

And you tell me.

You are my elder brother...

...why didn't you take

a stand for me?

Why didn't you support me?

Mama didn't like Dorice.

So, why didn't you say

anything on my behalf?

Mama and you threw me

out of the house.

That's it.

What else could I do?

Throw mama out.

She is stubborn and

you are stubborn too.

And I have to suffer.

Like I have to suffer

the consequences.

Don't I want to achieve great feats?

The big director.

Brother, is this why

you called me here?

I have left my work to come here!

And you will always be a loser.

Till today you could never

do anything for yourself...

...and you can never do

anything either.

You want money, don't you?

Tell me if you want

some money for mama.

I will send a nurse,

I will send some money!

Just tell me.

You just wasted my time

by calling me here.

Listen.

I don't want your money.

I don't want your favour either.

I am telling you this, because...

...after me, mama will

become very lonely.

I won't live much longer

to be with mama.

And she can't live

alone in this flat.

Do you understand what I am saying?

If you don't, then think about

it and try to understand it.

I won't live much longer

to take care of mama.

But no one in our family history...

Did you take a second opinion?

It has happened, Vivek.

But are you sure, only two months?

Let it be, two months. 21/2 months.

What difference does it make?

The point is I don't have much time.

And, irrespective of whatever

happens to me...

...what will we do with mama?

You know, only you can handle

her insanity other than me.

Mama is...

Does she still struggle

with the T. V remote?

Everyday.

She can never recognise any button...

...except for that of the shirt.

Whether it is the remote button,

the phone button...

...or the lift button.

You remember, when she took us...

...to papa's office

for the first time.

Maalamaal Towers, 19th floor.

- Yes!

And, as soon as she

entered the lift...

...she pressed four buttons

consecutively.

The lift stopped working.

And after that, she pressed

the fire alarm too.

That was the most embarrassing

day of papa's career.

And the fire brigade arrived

in 10 minutes...

...and you were crying

away like a girl.

But, I was just

seven years old brother.

But I remember, you held

my hand and said...

...don't worry, I am there.

I will not let anything

happen to you.

How old were you?

Is your mathematics weak?

I was 11 years old.

- 11!

No, I won't let you die.

I won't let you die, brother.

You won't die brother.

I won't let you die, brother.

Mama, what is he doing?

Lie down quietly.

Who says you have stomach cancer.

That fake doctor and

you know nothing.

Baba, please carry on.

He is a very learned sage.

Nirmala, your aunt.

He has cured her.

Mama, aunt Nirmala had gastritis

and not stomach cancer.

And, what do you have?

Keep quiet.

She was so scared

before coming here.

And now, she plays tennis.

Mama...

Stop it now, mama.

All this is of no use.

Nothing is wrong with

you, understood.

We have already faced...

...the biggest bad luck of

our life 20 years ago.

When your father passed away.

Bad fate doesn't follow all along.

Understood that.

And that too, because some

fake doctor has said it.

Listen to what your mama is saying.

Nothing has happened to you?

Come on, change your clothes.

Come with me.

Where?

There is a witch doctor in Vashi.

Who conducts by-pass surgery

with his fingers.

Fingers...

I told you, nothing

is wrong with you.

Look, take a look at him.

Can anyone say that anything

is wrong with him.

Mama, I...

- Amar!

Get up, son.

Listen. We will use the lift.

There is no time to waste.

Look at your hand.

Is it Raksha Bandhan (festival)?

Yes sir.

I have made bonds with

many witch doctors.

Look, this red one...

Swami Vibhuti Prasad.

This, the Nagadewale

Baba (sage), Aatish.

This is the witch doctor

Trimbakeshwar Maharaj (sage)...

No, he had given this ring.

Ganteshwar Maharaj.

I don't know, sir.

One life, so many baba's!

But, since when did you

become so superstitious?

Not me, sir, my mother.

And she is not this superstitious...

...she just recently became one.

- Why?

Any problem in life?

Yes sir, life is my problem.

That's why, I came to learn

guitar from you at this age.

In Muqaddar Ka Sikander,

he went with a smile.

I want to go playing.

Mother!

My mother!

Dear mother... mama.

Mother!

My mother!

Dear mother... mama.

Fate will change.

The bonds of sorrow will break.

Even Gods yearn for you.

You are full of blessings.

My mother! My mother!

Dear mother... mama.

Mother!

My mother!

Dear mother... mama.

We will be fortunate again.

Life will be filled

with joys again.

With you, I am not afraid.

You are full of blessings.

My mother! My mother!

Dear mother... mama.

Mother!

My mother!

Dear mother... mama.

Very nice.

How did you like it, mama?

- What?

My song, my first performance.

I didn't hear it.

This useless, Vivek.

He forgot to bring the battery.

Vivek.

- Brother, why are you telling me?

I asked you to get the battery.

I will have to do everything.

Mama, give that to me.

Here.

Put on.

I am the most innocent.

I am your dear son.
