But the life let anyone settle?

I had imagined that ..

But I was wrong.

Sometimes, life brings you to a crossroad ..

Passe .. where it Difficult to decide who's your daughter ..

And .. who's .. mother.

Once again you're late today. - Sorry.

Hold this! Quick! Take out juice for Charu.

I do so wish but if you mind ..

Finance minister of the country?

Good point! - "Munni defame accepted for your sake, darling."

Charu, stop singing. - "Munni accepted defame .."

Come and take your breakfast. - ".. For your sake, darling."

".. For your sake, darling."

If my Munni will sing so bad, naturally she'd defame.

But Pope says, I'm a born singer.

Right, papa? - Absolutely, darling.

Is it? So, tell me what's 'sargam' (melody)?

Rishi Kapoor's film.

Fantastic!

He's giving you the title of singer born?

Worry not, my child. Mamma is jealous.

Madam!

Madam! today evening I want to leave early.

Hold this. For now, I've had to leave in a hurry.

C'mon, let's go.

Wow!

How do you manage this, Madhu?

It's easy, sir. - No! You're a genius.

You'll definitely progress in life.

For now, I'd go to my seat.

For sure.

Yes - Here's our lunch. C'mon, guys.

Have pizza. - Okay, I'll call you later.

Let's eat! - Madam Joshi!

Madam Joshi! Someone wants to see you. - Take your piece.

I'm fine, sis (sister).

We've ordered pizza. Will you eat?

I wanted to speak something in private.

Shall we go out times? - Come!

Sis, there's the good news.

Why? One son was not enough?

Not that good news, sis.

There'll be people of her age over there.

Moreover, she'll get bored with us.

You're not taking away Mai

Medical is too costly in U.S..

And her amnesia.

Twice, I've taken her to Dr. Mehta.

I've the options. What do we do now?

Like your Munna?

And where will accommodate Mai herself?

We've only 2 bedrooms.

And I will not leave my room. - Just shut up.
