De Dana Dan Page #2
If he asks for me, tell him
I've gone to China.
What will I tell him if he asks me
why you have gone there?
To eat snakes.
- What if he doesn't believe me?
Then tell him, that the snake was poisonous
and, I died after consuming the snake.
Are you Chadda?
- Yes, I'm Chadda.
Let's go to the police station.
- But, why?
Many of your cheques have bounced...
...I've been searching all overfor you,
for the past 1 month.
And, you ask why.
- Oh... that's not me.
That's my daddy, Harbansh Chadda.
Where is he?
- He's gone to China.
But your receptionistjust
told me that he's inside.
She must be referring to me.
You see, I'm Chadda and
my daddy is also Chadda.
When is that fraud returning?
- He never informs.
Whenever I come here, he's always
in some different part of the world.
I've just four months
left to retire.
And, I want to apprehend
that fraudster before that.
In all my years of police service...
...I haven't come across
a conman like him.
Inform me as soon as he returns.
Otherwise, I'll be compelled
to seal his office,
his property... and all his bank accounts.
Get that? - Yes.
Let go.
Mulchand. Mulchand. Let go.
Let go, you dog.
Let go. Let go.
Let go.
Here.
Nitin.
- Yes, madam.
You dare mock me.
It was such an expensive pant,
and you tore it.
I'm going to deduct eight months salary.
I want to say something.
- Say it.
If this continues.
Then I'll never be able to repay the loan that,
my father borrowed from you.
Every time...
Every time I try to do something good
that dog ruins everything.
You dare call him dog.
He's my son.
He's your master.
Behave respecftully with him.
Call him, Mr. Mulchand.
Mr. Mulchand.
Go and apologise to him.
What will you say?
Sorry, Mr. Mulchand.
- Yes. Now go and get my car ready.
I'm getting late for office,
because of you.
Here we go.
Be quick, you donkey.
What's this audacity?
First you tore my clothes.
And, now you tore your
own clothes as well.
Madam, my suit was always torn.
There are holes everywhere.
The buttons are dangling.
I've been using this suit with the help
of safety-pins for so many years.
Come on, Madam.
Buy me a new suit.
Didn't your father wear
this suit for many years?
But he never complained.
Diwali is approaching.
I'm flat broke.
I'm your driver
please buy me a suit.
I've thought of something for Diwali.
You will like it.
Now, don't blabber
and delay me further.
Drive faster.
Good morning, madam.
Hello, madam.
- Good morning, madam
Good morning, ma'am.
Madam, this is the collection
from our Millennium Mall.
Have you counted them?
- Yes, madam.
Here's the account.
This is the collection
from our petrol pump.
And, this is the collection
from our restaurant.
Give me the accounts, and
deposit this money in the bank.
Okay, madam.
Madam, should we give everyone
Diwali bonus this month?
Diwali is an Indian festival,
this is Singapore.
No bonus.
Look at the price before
placing the order. Got it?
One...
- Yes, dad.
Yeah.
What's wrong, daddy?
- That officer has come here too.
But he doesn't know you,
what's the problem?
But, that other foolalong
with him, knows me.
He filed a case against
me for bounced cheques.
I know, when that moustached
man arrives tell him.
That I had to leave for an
urgent meeting. Get it?
And, you see the girl and
say yes, no matter how she is.
I'll meet you back at the office.
Look forward, look ahead.
Come, dear come.
Come.
Come, Mr. Chadda.
We were waiting for you.
Actually, daddy is slightly busy...
...so, I've brought his wife along.
Hi, I'm pammi.
- Glad to meet you.
This is my daughter, Anjali.
Nonny.
- Hi!
If you two want to talk in private
you'll can sit alone.
There's nothing to talk about.
- But, I want to talk.
Don't feel shy.
It's a good thing to know each
other before getting married.
Go, go dear.
At the corner?
You're so young.
You don't look like Nonny's mother at all.
I'm not Nonny's mother.
I'm Chadda's second wife.
Look, I love someone else.
And, I'm pregnant with his child.
- What?
My daddy asked me
not to tell you this.
But, if you're ready to
accept someone else's child
Then, I'm ready too.
Look, if you don't marry her we won't
get the rest of the dowry.
And, if we don't get the dowry
how will we repay the debts.
But...
- I need to repay so many...
Nine arrest warrants have been
issued against me.
But, Daddy she says
that she's pregnant.
So what?
It's a scheme.
Just like, get a comb free
on a pack of soap.
It's such an interesting offer.
You'll marry the girl,
and get the child free.
to someone else...
Be quiet, and eat your food.
You will get married at any cost.
Eat your food.
- Daddy.
This is my daughter,
Manpreet Singh Oberoi.
And this is my brother-in-law...
Mr. Paramjeet Singh Lamba,
Indian Ambassador.
And, this is Mrs. Lamba.
I've heard a lot about you, sir.
I'm very pleased to meet you.
- Thank you.
In India, Diwali is celebrated
by playing cards.
It's the same here too.
Do you see that?
They're one of the richest
families in Singapore.
Mr. Brijmohan Oberoi.
He has enough money to
last four generations.
Really?
- But, he has only one daughter.
But the planet Mars is
affecting her horoscope.
He requires a boy that
has a similar horoscope...
Only then can she get married.
Otherwise, everything is useless.
Bet. Bet.
- Yes, on 44. Yes.
- Yes.
Harbansh Chadda.
- Brijmohan Oberoi.
Oberoi?
- Yes,
Are you punjabi?
- Yes.
You're punjabi, I'm a punjabi.
Come on, give me a hug.
We're originally from India.
- Really.
And settled down here with
a good business, - Very good.
But, there's something that's
irritating me. - What?
We get to meet only
at such occasions.
Otherwise, the entire day
we're busy making money.
What's the use of this money?
- You're absolutely right.
My son, Nonny.
- Nonny Chadda. - Okay. Hi.
He's from Harvard.
And, he's a top class graduate.
- Okay.
But it's useless.
- Why?
He isn't getting married.
- What are you saying?
God has made such a
peculiar horoscope of his.
Look. The girl and the boy should
have the same horoscope.
And, she should have mars
in her horoscope.
Now, where will I find such a girl?
Please continue, playing Mr. Oberoi.
Daddy.
Excuse me, I'll be right back.
- Yes.
Daddy, what's wrong with
my horoscope?
There's nothing good about it.
Since you were born,
I've been seen bad times.
