De Dana Dan Page #12

Synopsis: Singapore-based Nitin Bankar's education was paid for by his employer, Kuljeet Kaur, and he, after the passing of his father, works as an unpaid maid-chauffeur for her until such time he pays off whatever she had spent. He is in love with gorgeous Anjali Kakkad but her father refuses to give his consent for this alliance. Desperate to get out of this situation, Nitin attempts suicide, albeit in vain, and then cooks up a scheme to abduct Kuljeet's pet, Mulchand, demand a hefty ransom, and then marry Anjali. He seeks assistance from his equally deadbeat-courier deliveryman, Ram Mishra, who wants to wed tall and pretty Manpreet Oberoi, and both book a room in Pan Pacific Hotel. However, Murphy's Law and a host of assorted characters get involved - resulting in hilarious and uncontrollable chaos.

Come on, get in.

Where did you get this junk box?

From a friend of mine.

Are you mad?

You'remaking our life public.

You're telling everyone, all your friends

that we're the kidnappers.

I stole it from him.

Well done, I wish everyone

has friends like you.

Get in. Lets call that old hag,

let's look for a phone.

I've a phone, wait.

How did you get a phone?

I stole it from my friend,

from the cupboard,

Hello.

Kidnapper, kidnapper.

Hello.

Come at Broad 42 with

the money, at 10 o'clock.

And yes, if you try to

inform the police...

Go there with the money...

...and, keep your mobile phone

switched on.

But it's your responsibility.

I should get my money back.

Or else, you'll be in trouble.

Don't worry, keep your

mobile switched on...

...so, that we can know

where you are.

House keeping.

- Yes,

Can you give me a fresh towel?

Grandma...

What?

Come in.

Is kinsman in?

No, he isn't here.

He's gone out.

When he returns, tell him that...

...the entire money is in this bag.

Hello. - Darling, it's me speaking.

We've got the money.

Keep the money safe.

And, we'll flee tomorrow morning.

No, no we don't have that much time.

We should run away before

my husband returns.

Open the door.

Yes.

Excuse me.

Who are you?

Move.

What do you want?

Boss. What the...

Could it be Kaala?

Dad, that Kakkad and his goons...

...are searching every room

looking for us.

If we don't deal with him now...

...he'll surely break my marriage.

Why don't you tell him...

...that we'll return him

his money by tomorrow.

He's more interested in

breaking this marriage.

Otherwise, why would he

bring his daughter along?

Take the money from

my new father-in-law...

...and, give it to my old father-in-law.

Mr. Oberoi has said that he'll

deliver the money to my room.

But, I can't go in to my room.

That scoundrel, is waiting

outside the room.

I know, there only one way.

His daughter is sensible,

tell her to talk to her father...

...to take the money and leave

before the marriage. Get it.

I'll go talk to her.

Which room is she in?

Which room is she in?

Today, Heerapurwala will be blown

to smithereens.

The bomb will do what I couldn't.

Mannu, go straight to your room.

The flight leaves tomorrow

at 10 o'clock. - 10:05.

Yes, 10:
05.

And, bring your luggage along.

And you, stay in the room.

As soon as we get the money...

You say it first.

Okay, you tell her.

Listen, we'll call you as

soon as we get the money.

And then, you come to the

airport with Manya.

We'll keep the ticket ready,

and wait for you two. Get it?

Okay.

Come on, come on.

Hurry up, someone might see us.

What are you doing?

Will you sit on my lap!

Hello. Is anybody there?

Who's it? Keep the food

on the table and leave.

I'm Nonny.

I wanted to talk to you urgently.

Come later, I'm bathing.

Look, you said that

you're pregnant...

...that's why I didn't marry you.

I'm ready to return all your money,

please leave from here.

Don't get my wedding cancelled,

please.

You cheat, come out.

I didn't know that you're

such a cheap and lowly person.

If this is the case before marriage...

...then, after the marriage

you might leave my daughter at home...

...and flirt with others.

Father-in-law...

First, you make the girl pregnant...

...and, then try to quieten her

by paying her money.

And, that too a woman like her.

What happened, son?

- Listen to your son's escapades.

There's a girl in that room,

first he got her pregnant.

And, now he's give her money

to get this matter over with.

With the grace of God,

I caught him red handed.

This is wrong, this is all wrong.

I'll tell you what the truth is.

What will you tell me?

I've seen everything with

my own eyes.

You're right, she's pregnant...

...that's why they can't get married.

You know all about it.

What can we do?

We can offer her some money...

...make a deal with her...

- Scoundrel, aren't you ashamed.

Scoundrel, your son is engaged

with such a woman.

What happened?

What happened?

Whatever happened here

is not worth saying.

Please be silent sir.

This is a hotel, and not a market.

Don't get so hot tempered until...

you don't know the entire situation.

She isn't as bad asyou think she is.

She's... she belongs to

a good family just like you.

Daddy, I don't know

who that girl is.

Son, this trick won't work.

The truth is out.

Mr. Oberoi, lets forget it.

I'll get the matter over with,

by giving her some money.

And, what are you women doing here?

Go to your rooms.

This is between men,

you all go to your room...

No one is going anywhere.

They should know the truth as well.

Daddy, I really mean it...

...there's no need to give

her any money. - Quiet.

It's my money. I'm paying her,

what's your problem?

Be quiet.

You father and son can

stop this charade.

I know you two know

her very well.

Don't say such vile things.

I've seen you knocking

on her door.

What did you tell me?

It's my grandma, she's punjabi.

From the Khatri...

Khatri family.

Is this your grandma

from the Khatri family?

I've been telling you,

he's a rascal and a liar.

And, all of you kept backbiting at me.

Be quiet, you Casanova.

Just because you couldn't

lay hands on my wife...

...so, now you're after me.

Enough, everyone be quiet.

Or else, I won't spare anyone.

I don't have 10-12 children,

she's my only child.

So, is that my fault?

No. It's all my fault.
