Not to our taste.

One minute.

Did you find out

anything about this girl?

No managers have heard of her.

Let me find out more.

Nikki, hey Nikki. Get up, son!

Hey, what is this?

You keep sleeping everywhere.

Shankranna, what's wrong with him?

Sorry, I am late.

Don't worry about

getting your son married.

I have the horoscopes of all the

single-but-ready to mingle girls.

Who is the boy?

Here he is.

Oh, dark complexion...

...not suitable for

the girls in this file.

They prefer only "white" boys.

Education?

SSLC...

...not yet passed

These two files are also ruled out.

These girls require

boys with degrees.

Salary?

Three thousand...

Per day?

Monthly

Oh, is that so?

This one is also out then.

Minimum ten thousand.

Dowry?

Don't want any...we

don't take dowry.

Sorry, none of these girls

will get married without dowry.

Sir, are there any girls

without any conditions?

This file I prepared yesterday.

Some reject cases...

See if you like any.

Isn't she good looking?

Yes, yes,

get her married to your husband.

This girl is beautiful no?

Is she also looking for a husband?

If her photo is here, obviously, she

is looking for a husband. Not a house!

Show me who that is.

She is beautiful, Shankranna!

Tell me about this girl.

Her name is Shwetha...

Born under an auspicious star...

...at 5:
55 in the morning...

...no ill-omens follow her...

She works in a pizza parlour.

Her father owns a bakery...

Thus, by god's grace,

there is no hunger in her future...

Her horoscope is on the computer...

...give me the boy's.

I'll match them...

...we'll get them married.

What do you say?

Clean the place up quickly.

People will start coming in.

Take this.

Put the yellow one there.

Sir, is Shwetha here?

Are you with Shwetha?

Sort of...

Why are you late?

Oh, did you know I was coming?

Is Shwetha here?

OK, come. I will show you.

Sir, how do I look in this getup?

Please look at me.

Sir, is this Shwetha's office?

Get him ready quickly.

Sir...Shwetha?

Yes, she will come.

Get ready quickly!

Sir, please listen to me.

Come, hero sir... Come!

How's this?

I have arranged all

this specially for you.

This item song is

going to be a big hit!

What? An item song?

Yes. The song is nice...

...and the item is very very nice!

I don't do item songs!

What is this boss?

You can't say things like this.

Let's pack up! I won't do this.

Haven't I already said

I won't do item numbers?

Hey, Nikki, look there.

What?

Just look there.

Someone's beating

on the drum of my heart

Words are singing

in the corners of my mind

I feel like I am whistling

with my fingers in my mouth

My legs move clumsily

Still I am dancing

Jamma jamma jammma...

Someone's beating

on the drum of my heart

A ladder to climb the sky

A boat to sail around the earth

Soil to sow my dreams

I wish she could come

to me just like these dreams

I will sell my old cycle

Be in debt forever

If she favours me

I'll place a cut-out

of her in my tent

What can I say?

What shall I do?

If I meet Rajnikanth on the street?

I got my act right after seeing her

Beauty drives boys crazy

Is this right?

I climbed hills and dales

And swam across the ocean

I conquered forts

and faced the spears

I have to conquer the

villains and win her heart

It's difficult, God it's difficult

If the male ego is wounded

You can't patch

it like an old slipper

Her kajal costs as

much as my house rent

This is a problematic situation

This feels like a closed cauldron.

Excuse me...

your costume is very nice.

The children really enjoyed it.

It was really really nice.

Can I take a picture with you?

Come.

Please...

Thank you!

I want a photo as well.

Yeah, yeah, sure!

One minute!

Give it to me.

OK,

Thank you. bye!

The girl is beautiful...

This is my daughter.

She lost her mother

during childhood.

I raised her alone.

When she was younger,

she accompanied me to the bakery.

Now she doesn't like to.

She works for an MNC...

...eight thousand per month...

She cooks very well.

Her coffee is ambrosia!

Although she has no mother,

you have raised her well...

She's very sweet.

I have raised her with loving care.

She grew up dancing on my head.

Be careful that she doesn't slip...

What's your problem

if my father-in-law is bald?

Can the girl and

guy talk in private?

Yes, of course they can.

We are also very modern.

Yes, they can talk.

The coffee was very good...

Is it? Thank you.

My neighbour made it.

My father lies...

I don't know how to cook.

But I do!

So what do you do?

Shine a path to people

lost in the dark...

...and put them in the right place.

Meaning?

In the theater...

Oh a torch shiner?

Correct...

Shankranna runs a talkies.

What does Shankranna have?

Talkies!

Talkies?

Very funny...

So you get to watch movies for free?

Yes, four times a day,

I watch the same movie for free.

I love movies!

You can make a lot of money...

Nice cars, nice clothes...

You can go to foreign locations...

Must be really nice.

But I only shine the torch...

Torch shiner?

You speak very well...

You were pretending to be

an innocent lamb all this while...

Now tell me, arranged

marriage or "loved" marriage?

Don't tease me.

It is I who came to see the girl...

...and you dyed your hair!

Be quiet!

Your boy is very smart.

Shankranna,

Let's find an auspicious

time and get them married.

If the girl comes home,

my boy will put on weight.

It's that broker's call.

Are you sure you

are ready to commit?

Shall I fix the girl?

Enough fooling around.

Talk to him...

Hello... hello...

Loan him some money

if you have to...

...and get him a house.

How long can he live

with those loafers?

How did she agree to marry you?

She's like milk...

and you are like gutter water...

Yes, I am ditch water

and you are the shining moon.

Just eat quietly...

Shankranna,

when can we fix the wedding for?

The girl doesn't want to marry.

- Let it go...

- Why is that so?

Why are you getting so upset?

I'll find you a girl

that looks like a heroine.

Nikki.

Why are you going away?

Wait a minute...

That girl is not pretty...

She's just fair...

Hello.

Hello sir, I am Shwetha...

Which Shwetha?

I danced with you in that song...

Tell me which song?

Sir, last week...

Which one is that?

That one which goes "Somebody

is beating the drum of my heart."

Oh that one!

You sing well I say.

Please don't joke with me.

OK, tell me why you called.

Sir, I wanted to meet you once...

Where are you? I'll pick you up.

Thank you, thank you so much!

OK, I'll see you in the evening...

Shwetha...

Somebody's come

looking for you...

Oh God, why did he come here?

OK, you come here...

Hello, how are you?

How come you are here?

I just wanted to talk to you.

Tell me...

I wanted to know why you

told the broker you won't marry me.

Please, come sit down.

Or the manager will get upset.

I knew it.

You spoke to me so

well that day too...

Please order...
