Dear Zindagi Page #5

---

not to work on my film...

I'm looking for mature

people to work with

What did I just say?

Get out right? Get out!

Bye, see you Jackie

I'm not mature enough to

handle your big fat project...

but mature enough to sleep with you?

Amazing! What a revelation

Kaira I came here to...

I don't want to do this, get out

What are you doing Kaira?

Just get out!

Koko, are you sure about this?

I know with all these

personal issues...

working with Raghu will be tough...

but this was your big break

Okay Jack

Sometimes we choose

a tough path just because...

we believe that to

achieve important things...

we have to choose the tough option

But sometimes you need

to choose the easier option...

because at that time that

is the best option for you

Right?

Especially when you are

not ready to face that tough path

Damn! Wish I had said

it right when he was here

You want some tea?

Tonight I'm going to sleep so well,

so well...

Very well!

I was at this construction site...

with all these construction workers...

all short and strange people

Suddenly, I lose my balance...

and I go falling down...

this big fall...

and land in muck

I think it was a gutter

All these workers are just staring,

but no one is helping...

I look up...

and I see my camera dangling...

and then suddenly out of nowhere...

this group of newly married women...

in saris, pal/us & bindis

all land up there...

and they start pointing

at me, laughing at me

Bam! I woke up

It was 4 am...

I went straight to the bathroom

and stood under the shower

Why shower?

I don't know

I felt dirty, I felt

like I needed to clean up

So this Raghuvendra,

he is tall and handsome?

That's your conclusion of my dream?

Just asking

You know what I felt...

I felt I am ugly, trashy, cheap, dirty

That's funny

What's funny?

I mean...

all this from a girl who is

the opposite of ugly, trashy or dirty

That's funny... not "ha-ha" funny

Okay'!

Oops!

What's With this?

It only creaks when you really like

someone, but can't do anything about it

Yes, Raghuvendra is tall and handsome

So you like tall people,

not short and strange

Maybe...Sid was also tall

So there's a Sid too?

Yes so?

So I mean you're a young

and beautiful woman...

you will have admirers

What do you mean?

What do you mean by admirers?

I mean you're a young

and beautiful woman...

you will have admirers

Admirers?

- Yes

You're trying to say

that there are lots of men!

That's what you're trying to say

No, what do you want me to say?

Why would I say that? No

That's what you are saying

You actually mean that I'm a fast girl, a cheap girl...

- No come on!

Fast dirty cheap...

...why use these words?

Isn't that what the world thinks?

If a girl has more than

one relationship then that's it!

Kaira...

have you ever bought a chair?

What?

A chair, kursi

have you ever bought one?

Yes

And did you just go into a

shop and buy the first chair you saw?

No

Exactly my point

We look at so many different

chairs until we find the right one

Some chairs may be comfortable

but look like sh*t...

others look nice but

are hard on the butt...

So the process starts,

chair after chair...

how many chairs we

check out before we find...

that one chair!

It doesn't creak with me

If we look for so many

options just to buy a chair...

then shouldn't we look at options...

when choosing a life partner?

So...dirty cheap fast...no

Smart clear fine...actually superfine!

Wait wait wait

So the women in my

dream who believe that...

marriage is the only

acceptable relationship...

I felt dirty because of them

See? You figured it out yourself...

you don't need anyone's help

But the dangling camera?

What does that mean?

Just like my future,

it's hanging in the air

Maybe you should sit on my chair...

and I should sit here from today

It's so cool

I wish the whole world could

hear about your chair theory

Why is it important for

the whole world to hear this?

No I just...

if they understand this chair theory

they will stop judging others...

and what a beautiful world it will be

No Kaira...

when you understand yourself well...

then what others think

of you doesn't matter

If you don't take charge

of your own life somebody else will

I pity those who don't shop for chairs

Kaira, will you go

back to your chair please?

Looked like you wanted

to take my chair home with you

And speaking of home,

I have homework for you

Homework?

Yes I'm very strict

with my homework assignments

Okay'!

I want you to chat

with your mom and dad

10 minutes with each please

Please, what will I say to them?

Time's up, see you next week

What! We have 20 seconds more

Hey you saw that?

What happened?

20 seconds happened

I don't like this buzzer

Homework Kaira

Hey, those are really

nice looking glasses...

Thanks

You're going to see Jug?

Yup, I have an appointment

Really?

You have problems too?

YUP:

I am going to get my cycle repaired

Repairs cycles too?

Hi dad

Hi darling, when will you come home?

I'll come

You will be home before

Kiddo arrives right?

There's enough time for that,

of course I'll be there

Your mom is in high spirits...

full planning for the party

Obviously, her prince is arriving

Those restaurant guys

loved your film...

They said it was very well shot

Oh the hotel video

Close up of Prawn Balchao?

Anyway I'll call later

Okay'!

Bye

4 minutes!

Yes Koko, you called?

Yes, why didn't you pick up

- I was cleaning Kiddo's room...

I didn't have my phone

Okay but I'm busy now,

can't talk bye

Okay'!

Shift that!

'Talk to mom and dad

for 10 minutes'...is he mad!

Beach?

Are we having the session out here?

Why not? Problem?

No, but is it allowed?

Whose permission do I need?

I don't know,

but aren't there some rules?

Like privacy,

closed door, couch and all that?

There are rules

But one should know which

ones to break and which ones to not

Now people will know I am crazy

Who are these people

who keep following you?

Despite the mess, Goa is

the most beautiful place in India

I wish I could agree

Why? You don't like Goa?

I was born here

This is where my parents live,

how can I like it?

Did your homework?

Only half...

I managed to talk

to dad for 5 minutes...

okay 4 minutes,

but that's a record in itself

And your mom?

I tried, but she was busy

So you've only done a quarter

What did you chat with your dad?

About Kiddo, my brother...

he's studying at

the London University...

he's coming home soon, so

my parents are hosting a big party...

for his homecoming

When I got here nobody

even said 'welcome'

So you don't like Kiddo?

No no I love Kiddo, I really do

He's the only one

who can make me smile...

just by being there

When he was little,

I would read him his favorite comic...

you know Tinkle, have you read it?

Yes

Hunter Shambhu,

Kaafia the Crow & Supandi'...

So Supandi! was Kiddo's favourite...

So I would rep/ace Supandis

with Kiddo's name...
