Love Punjab Page #4

I know you are asking about Manveer.

Students, I have this exciting

project to announce today.

The family heritage project.

I always look forward

to this every year.

It gives us a chance to

talk about where we come from.

So, I will give you an example.

My father's from Canada, but my

mother actually comes from Scotland

Canada is a multicultural country.

And we have a lot of different people

come from a lot of different places.

So, I'd like for you to

include facts and photographs

Getting facts off the

internet is very easy.

Manveer,

your project is going to suck.

There is nothing

good about your country.

Thank you.

You are right, brother.

You are absolutely right.

Just kidding, brother.

Here you go.

Sister-in-law has made it.

This is my wife's favorite food.

- Only a little.

- Take it.

- That's enough.

- Try it.

Try it.

Eat it.

- What was this?

- This?

Cockroaches with onions.

- Sorry. Sorry.

- He must have got an onion.

It would have tasted delicious

if it were a cockroach.

- You too eat some.

- No, I don't eat it.

I don't touch such things.

I am into greens and bread.

I too am into greens and bread.

Greens and bread reminds me of Punjab.

Punjab reflects in everything you say.

You can remove someone from Punjab..

But you can never remove

Punjab from a person.

You are being so poetic.

Amazing

It will be quite a pair

when two poets will get together'.

Listen.

Manveer?

What happened to him?

Oh, history of Punjab.

Let's read it together.

- Punjab has a great history and..

- Kids said that Canada isn't my country.

I want to go to Punjab.

You got influenced by kids?

So many intelligent people

told me and yet I didn't believe them.

It is such a beautiful country.

We won't leave it just

because people ask us to.

This is the problem.

Those kids insulted me.

They said that my country is bad.

Okay. Insult.

You know son,

insult is just like cold.

The more you think about

it the more you feel it.

I want to go to Punjab That's it.

Fine, we will go in the morning.

Go to sleep now.

Now should I go to Punjab or

the counselor's office in the morning?

Or should I go get the

tissue as we ran out of them.

Oh. I need to also

fix a flush urgently.

Hey Tuti, you are not up as yet?

Who will switch off the alarm?

Why should I switch it off?

I don't want to go to school.

What?

I don't want to go to school.

Oh!

That's more like it!

Today I realized that you

are my son and I am your father.

You know I didn't

complete my education

I will take you to

school by your ears.

I don't want to go there.

- You will go there for sure.

- No, I don't want to go there.

Okay, bye.

Study well.

Your mother will come to pick you up.

Okay? Bye-bye.

Hi.

- Oh hi, how are you?

- I am very well.

I am sorry, I can't find Manveer.

Do you know where he is?

He didn't come to school today.

He.. he didn't come?

No. No. I haven't seen him.

Thank you.

No problem

- Everything okay?

- Yeah.

Manveer!

Manveer! What are you doing over here?

What are you doing over here?

You know how scared I was?

- You didn't go to school?

- No.

- Does your father know you are here?

- No.

Let's go.

He couldn't take care

of his child for 15 days

"Don't mix up love

with a fake friendship."

"lf you don't wish to give

a hug then don't even shake hands."

Beautiful.

Very beautiful.

- It's very deep too.

- Not so much. Now your turn

I had brought a book

from the bus stand in India

There was a good one in it.

"I cannot tell my father,

mother, you cannot keep it hidden."

No, this wasn't in the book.

It was something else

I thought so.

"I cannot tell my father,

mother, you cannot keep it hidden."

"They say I am just a kid,

pampered by my parents."

"I wish to get married, mother.."

I won't be able to say it.

You go ahead with yours.

No. It's okay. Go ahead.

- No, you recite good ones. Go ahead.

- No.

- You.

- No, you recite one

- You.

- No, you recite one

You..

- No, you recite one

- You recite one.

Sorry, sorry.

I think I am interrupting

No, brother. No. Have a seat.

Brother;

your kitchen is in a bad state.

A house without a woman and

a woman without a house are useless.

Am I right?

If there is a bulb switch on at home..

...and there is no one to

switch it off, then it is not far.

Didn't I say wrong?

I think you two are feeling shy.

It's okay.

You carry on I will look away.

No brother, sit.

Why are you making

him feeling uncomfortable?

Just kidding, sister.

Tell me, did you recite that one..

"Don't look at me with

such passionate eyes."

"Otherwise, I am sure to die."

You are..

Who are you?

Didn't they teach you

to knock before entering?

- Are you new here?

- My wife.

You didn't tell me about her.

Sister, put your feet down.

Hello. Hi.

Do you know where Manveer was?

Yes he had gone to school. I dropped

him off to school in the morning.

- Why?

- You don't need to pretend

I thought you are just

not concerned about me.

But I didn't know that you aren't

concerned about your child either

But I dropped him to school..

In your life, everything is

about you. Your life, your happiness

You don't deserve a relationship,

Parghat.

Enjoy your company.

She is my friend's sister.

They are my friends.

I have come to talk

to you for the final time.

I know that you like Jessica

Then what is the problem

is getting married with her?

Without sugar.

I love her.

But I don't want her

family life to be disturbed.

Anyway, she considers

me as her friend.

If I talk about the wedding,

then it won't look good.

I have no problem.

I am ready to marry Zora

"I feel scared at night."

"My eyes seek light."

"I will be happy."

"I will be happy."

"Just look at me with a smile"

"Keep this apple of

your eyes in your heart."

"Keep this apple of

your eyes in your heart."

Okay, I'll do it.

Just get out of my whole life.

Manveer!

"Mom, I am used to

sleeping in your arms"

"Papa, I am used to

sitting on your knees"

"Mom, I am used to

sleeping in your arms"

"Papa, I am used to

sitting on your knees"

"I haven't seen God."

"I haven't seen God."

"You should side me."

Be brave, son.

India is a really good country.

And your parents

they are really nice

Right?

I think your child is

suffering from depression.

He thinks this isn't

his country anymore.

And after your divorce, his

father too will be separated from him.

Hence, he thinks he can no

longer look into his friends' eyes.

It happens.

Kids are sensitive

Hence, both of you will

need to take good care of him

Fine.

If you two cannot be

together then can you do this?

Take him to India and show him

that his country is a beautiful one.

He is a good boy.

You are right, doctor.

But do we show its beauty?

We can show beauty only

if it is beautiful, right?

Don't you see the news?

Or don't you have a Facebook account?

Look, you will have do it.

I can try.

Let it be. He is in depression
