Shaalu?

Mom's calling. We'll talk later.

Hold on...

What is it?

Please call me by my name.

Only if you memorize two poems...

then I'll decide.

I have to go now.

Hello?

Bye.

A poem by Dushyant Kumar.

You move like the misty morning train.

I tremble like a bridge in the rain.

In the deep jungle of your gaze.

I lose my way, no trail to blaze.

Who is it?

May I speak with Ramdhari Agarwal?

Speaking. Who is this?

I... I...

What do you want? Hello?

I'm calling from Kashi

Co-operative bank.

We have a new scheme

l don't need anything, thank you!

I'll come straight to the point.

Will you sleep with me?

Tell me

I won't tell anyone.

You had sex with him too, right?

Why are you worried about your wife?

This is good quality stuff.

It's too expensive - It is not!

Let me give you a discount.

Think it over

and come back later, okay?

I quit my job.

Pathak...

your daughter hasn't visited

for ages.

Good morning.

Get out of here.

What?

Should I drown myself with shame?

Go away.

Madam just quit her job!

What were you thinking?

Nothing.

"Nothing", "l don't know",

that's all you know!

Was I ever hard on you?

I've always been liberal...

raised you like a boy.

What did I do to deserve

such a scandal?

I haven't created any scandal.

Then what is this?

All this scampering for loose

change! What is this?

On the ghat, in the streets...

I'm constantly afraid someone

will ask about you! What is this?

That's your fear.

Hence, I've decided

not to live here anymore.

The smaller the city, the

narrower the world-view.

After all this, you're still living

in this house with dignity...

- And my world-view is narrow?

- Wow!

How considerate of you, Father!

Should I start paying rent as well?

Look at me.

What do you want from me?

Why are you taking revenge?

Revenge for what?

For Mother!

You don't even remember

what she looked like.

You were just 6 years old.

Are 6 year-olds blind?

I took her to the hospital, didn't l?

For 2 days, she begged you

to take her, but you didn't.

Your students mattered more.

You did nothing!

I thought it was just fever.

I messed up.

But I never neglected you, did l?

I left my job at the university,

for your sake!

I ended up selling books

on the ghat, for your sake!

You think I killed your mother?

So do you think I killed that boy?

Answer me?

He killed himself!

You're crazy.

You're getting confused

I'm not getting confused

I will defend my honor

I won't go to prison.

You have decided

everything for yourself!

I'm the fool who arranges the money

I'll arrange the ransom too.

Next you'll say you don't even

need a father.

Do what you feel like.

I tremble like a bridge in the rain.

In the deep jungle of your gaze.

I lose my way, no trail to blaze.

I never thought about it.

I like them all.

How can you like all the seasons?

I like the monsoons!

You recorded her voice?

Brilliant!

First, I recorded it on my phone...

then I cued songs

based on her words.

Well done! The student

has become the master!

That's a smart gift, bro!

Dude, she's from an upper-caste.

Don't get too emotional about her.

Does she know

you're from a lower caste?

Let her know about it,

then do as you please.

Not everyone is progressive.

OK, I'll tell her later.

Come on!

There's lot of time for that.

When he gets a job,

none of this will matter.

- Give him your motorbike keys.

- Why?

He has one more surprise for her.

Give the keys!

He'll pay you for the fuel.

First word.

Plant?

Lamp?

Bowl!

DeePak!

It's a ower, not Deepak.

DeePak!

Where to?

Wherever you want.

Get on.

Your bag?

Sorry!

- Shall I sit?

- Yes, sure.

You know what we

boys call your bus?

What?

Chick-Wagon!

What is this?

- Is it an eraser?
