Shut up!

You want to give me

relationship advice?

Your wife was...

- Rahul! Rahul!

ls this how you talk to a guest?

Excuse yourself and go outside,

- l'm not going anywhere dad.

Go outside and get

yourself some fresh air.

l'm not going anywhere dad.

Okay .. fine! We'll

discuss this tomorrow.

When do we discuss anything dad?

You talk and l listen.

That's not a discussion.

Rahul, is this how you

talk to your elders?

Which elders are you

talking about mom? You?

Who's been trying to look

thirty-five for the past ten years...

...or dad who's

constantly trying to remind me...

...that all l am is a failure.

Rahul, that's not fair.

That's not fair. Come on ..

Since the day you were born...

...you've been given

everything you asked for.

l asked for?

Dad, you've given me everything

that you wanted to give me...

...so that l would

become just like you.

But l'm not you and l don't

even want to be like you. l ..

l'll take care of him..

- Stop it. Stop it ..

l'll take care of him.

Are you crazy? lnstead of

trying to take care of me...

...why don't you

take care of your wife?

She can't get her hands off me!

- Dayna?

l did not.

Rahul behave...

How much more

appropriately should l behave?

Wear ajacket, adjust

your bow, spike your hair...

...join the family business,

use chopsticks ...

l'm tired!

lt's my life. And whether

l eat with chopsticks...

...a fork or my damn hands,

it's my decision.

So just let me breathe.

What's wrong with using chopsticks?

Enjoy your dinner everyone.

What's wrong with you?

Stupid!

l'm sorry

Please Rahul, don't embarrass me.

No. Really, l am.

l'm so stupid, l

always cross the line.

l'm really sorry that

l hurt your feelings.

Ayyy ... cutie pie.

Hi granny.

Let's step outside.

Rahul, you're the one with whom

l can discuss my

screwed up relationships.

l would never want to

screw up our relationship.

As of now, l don't

want to be with anyone.

Not even if it's as

wonderful a person as you.

Another backhanded compliment.

No! l love you sooooo much Rahul.

Really.

But just as a friend.

That's where the problem lies.

l feel the love, you

feel the friendship.

The only problem is that you've

gone a step ahead of where l am.

All l have to do is pull you back.

Ri! lt's not that easy.

We can try, can't we?

You look so cute when you cry,

it's tough to say no.

l'm really sorry l hurt you Rahul.

l really am.

First you sit so close to me and

then you wonder why l get mislead.

Do you want a hug?

So your mom didn't send you to

Vidal Sassoon to change

your electric shock haircut?

As of now, l'm the

one who's shocked them.

What do you mean?

l told them.

No!!!

Everything.

About my job, our wedding

and every habit of their's...

...that annoys the hell out of me.

So now?

Now what?

l'm going to wear a

tie of my own choice.

What fun.

l'm going to swallow my

food as and when l want.

No baby! Chew your food,

thirty two times.

There are those times in your

life when you feel you can fly.

You feel there's something in the

universe that's made just for you.

And that night was made just for me.

The morning after, turned out to

be even more beautiful than...

...l ever imagined it to be.

Aaaaaaaah...

ln retrospect, l do feel that

maybe l said too much that night.

But l do hope, some day

Mom and Dad understand me.

The next morning, we were

in Vegas for the annulment

And for better or worse...

...Riana and me are no longer

husband and wife but just friends.

And since then she has been trying...

...to hook me up with

some girl or another.

She doesn't spare a chance...

And it's really embarassing.

But l don't want to date anyone

else because l really love her.

l don't seem to understand

what she finds lacking in me.

Now l even have ajob...

lt may not be in the top 10 but

l get time off for my photography

and obviously my

favourite model... you know.

Well, sometimes l hope

the future's better.

But then l realise that the

present's not too bad either.

Life isn't perfect, but l

am happy. l'm really happy

For the first time, l'm

living life on my own terms.

As for Riana and me, we often

cross the chapel where we got married

And l believe that...

...someday l will convince her

to get back in there and marry me.
