arms, my father. "

"But now it's time

to leave your home. "

"I'm leaving your home, my father. "

"I will miss the beautiful

moments we shared together. "

"I will never ever forget you. "

"It is difficult to tear tear oneself away. "

Funny. Babban still

hasn't come with the car.

He's a Nawab and Nawabs

always move at their own pace.

I don't understand why you've

pampered a driver so much!

Delhi has no dearth of servants.

Yes,there is no dearth

of servants in this city.

But there's a paucity of loyalists.

Anyway Babban is a servant of

the house. Part of the family.

You are right. Hear that Bobby?

Your brother talks so well.

Live long, son. Daughter-in-law..

Babban and his family have

been our servants for generations.

Thank God, he's finally here.

Brother!

God bless you!

The new bride! Hello.

Congratulations.

What English!

- His abuses too sounds like pearls!

- Shut up!

- Sorry.

- You talk alot.

Made us wait for so long in this heat.

I have to stop at the corner.

- Yes mother?- Bring the

bride in this dressed up car.

We'll go in the BMW.

Come along.

Where are you lost? Come along.

Brother...

Sister-in-law...

In relation we're

brother's step siblings.

But brother loves us

more than real siblings.

- Isn't it?

- I don't just love you...

I worship you.

Mother's command is

akin to God's word.

How obedient my son is!

Son, now that your bride is home..

She will rule the house.

No, mother. You've run this

house and you will continue.

Come on, bride.

Now you may enter.

Come along sister-in-law.

Show sister-in-law her place..

I mean her room.

It's going to rain. You'll

get wet if you stand here.

Rain or storm, nothing scares me.

You said nothing scares you.

The sound of lightning

sometimes frightens me.

What else frightens you?

Tell me. Go ahead.

I said, nothing scares me.

I'm a girl of today.

And I'm of the old era.

Now tell me, how will the

19th century meet the 21st?

Take your hand away.

Take your hand away.

There's no need to forge relations!

I don't want thereto be

any relation between us!

Is this how the girls of the 21st

century act on their nuptial nights?

This is not mere talk. Look...

I won't tolerate any coercion!

How did you assume I'd

force you into anything?

Just one thing.

You're being so mean to me.

At least tell me

what my fault is.

Do you know I..

I didn't want to get married!

I see. Then what did you want to do?

I'd do anything else but

not let my dreams be crushed.

I won't let your dreams be crushed.

Look at me.

If not as spouses,we can

at least live like friends.

And the first rule of

friendship is equal rights.

I won't do anything in this

house which you don't approve.

Neither should you do

anything that will hurt me.

Gradually you will know

me and I'll understand you.

In this manner,your 21st

century ideas won't be hurt.

And my emotions of the

19th century will be intact.

Right, isn't it?.

As regards tonight or

the coming nights...

I could have slept elsewhere.

But that would hurt my family.

You will have to trust me.

I'll sleep close by.

You too can sleep here.

"Hail Lord of the universe. "

"You wipe away the difficulties

of your devotees in a flash. "

Who is singing?

It's the master. The morning

begins with his prayers.

"Erase evil in mankind.

Eliminate sin from the world. "

"Proliferate devotion,

propagate sanctity.

"Serve the good. "

Why are you standing out? Come in.

No, I'm fine right here.

This is the house of God.

One doesn't stand out.

Come in and bow your head.

Come in, Anjali.

Do you believe in Him?

Don't you?.

- No.

- You don't trust God?

No. Human beings are just puppets.

He has the strings.

He can play with us anytime.

And we keep dancing.

No, He is our parent.

And parents don't play

games with their children.

Even if the children are ungrateful.

God doesn't turn away

from His children.

It would be better if you

wouldn't give me false assurances.

Listen...

You get angry very fast.

Shall I say something?

Do as I say when you get very angry.

Shut your eyes,take a deep breath...

Say OM,thrice.

Take the Lord's name.

The anger will evaporate.

And why aren't you wearing vermilion?

Why aren't you ready as yet?

He must be on his way.

Whether he comes or goes..

I'm not his slave.

Brother,we are his slaves.

Don't forget he still owns 75% shares.

And we have a measly 25%

A quarter share.

Father has been terribly unjust to us.

- Again you're criticizing...

- Bob, why aren't you ready?

We must know everything about

the property discussions.

That's fine, dear sis.

But is it essential to lick

Ram's shoes all the time?

He is a smart man who

bends with the wind.

And can bend the enemy

when the wind changes.

When will our time come?

Patience, my darling.

Daughter-in-law.

- Darling bride..

- Yes..?

Come here.

Lovely...

I love the wet tresses

of a newly wedded bride.

Her state in the morning

tells of the night she spent.

- Pardon..?

- What a pretty sari!

And the edging is so lovely!

One must appreciate the

taste of your parents.

You've brought so many

saris and ornaments.

Why don't you let

me keep the ornaments?

You can ask me for them when

you need them. I'll give them.

But why should I give you my jewelry?

I know how to look after my things.

You're a bride of the new generation.

By the way I run

this house by my rules.

No, I make my own rules.

Nobody else.

She even has a tongue.

What?What did you say?

What did you call me?

I said...

what can I say, my dear?

- What can I say?- What?

- I'm just a mother!

And the accusation

that I'm a step mother!

I wish I'd died before being

spoken to in that loud voice!

What happened mother?

I'm the guard of this house.

I asked your bride to give me

her jewelry for safe keeping.

In case of some accident

can't trust the servants.

I had just given this advice

that she lost her temper.

My own children never

spoke to me so loudly!

Was I speaking loudly or

were both of you abusing me?

Why are you acting?

Enough. Apologize to mother.

- You don't know anything and..

- I asked you to apologize to her.

I had warned you I won't

tolerate any kind of coercion!

Mother has only asked for the

ornaments. Give them to her.

Never! Why should I give her?

My parents gave them to me!

It's not an issue of jewelry!

It's of ordering me for no reason!

I'm saying the same thing. It's

not jewelry but respecting elders.

I'll get you many more ornaments.

Mother has given an order.

It should be obeyed.

Give them to her.

I won't do any such thing!

Right now you're very angry.

When you calm down..

I am confident that you will

do what is true and right.

I have full faith on you.

Look... I won't do any such thing!

What are you doing?

Where are you going?

I'm going home!

But this is your home.

- This is not my home!

- What are you saying?

You got taken in by them.

They want you to split.

- What?
