It didn't work out.

You made her cry, too?

No! It's not like that.

Buddy, what do you do to

the girls?

I told you, it's not like that.

I know, I'm just kidding.

Okay. Better.

I bet, you didn't like anyone

besides Sunchi.

I think, you are too loyal

to your emotions, right?

I don't know. I didn't

find anyone else.

I bet you didn't look.

Can you find all this,

if you look for it?

They say, you could find

God, if you looked.

Love, passion and romance...

...is something that happens

all of a sudden.

It just happens.

You don't look at all emotional!

Do the ones who are emotional

carry a placard that announces it?

What's Arnav like?

Sorry, sorry!

You were talking to your mom.

So...

I heard you.

I have very good hearing.

Shall we go?

Can we leave?

Listen to me!

Why are you running away?

- I am getting late.

I mean, about Arnav.

- I don't want to talk about that.

This isn't fair.

I told you, everything. And you

won't talk about yourself.

We broke up.

Oh. I am sorry.

Why are you sorry?

You're supposed to say that.

What happened?

Did you have a fight?

Let's about something else.

Please?

Listen, say sorry to him.

You can patch up with him.

- Thanks, but it's okay.

Hey, tell him you're here

to meet a boy. He'll get scared.

Sorry. Boys get insecure

because of all this.

Should I talk to him?

I'm good at hook ups.

Will you keep quiet?

I am just trying to help you!

Did I ask you for help?

Did I?

Why are you just...

You lose your temper over

any little thing. Are you insane?

Yes, I am insane.

Happy now?

That's good. Both of them are

saved the trouble.

Who do you mean? - The boy

in Mumbai and the one here.

Who are you going to marry now?

Will you keep quiet?

You joke about everything!

Hey! Hey you!

You've been mocking me

since morning. Did I say aword?

Now that I have mocked you,

you want me to be quiet!

This is okay, between friends.

Not always.

There is a time, a place

and a mood for a joke.

You can't crack

jokes about every little thing.

Think, before you open your mouth

to chatter.

Someone may feel hurt.

If a person doesn't want to talk

about something, just understand.

Try to understand what kind of

problem he is facing.

How would I know what's the problem?

How well do we know each other?

You crack a joke and it's fun.

If I do that, it bothers you.

Please keep this Mumbai style

practicality to yourself, okay?

Just be quiet.

- You keep quiet, okay?

What a major piece of attitude!

Who do you think you are?

You can go and dominate

over your precious Arnav.

We don't listen to anyone here.

What are you glaring at?

I feel like going to their

house and telling their parents...

...that they should lots

of charity...

...since their sons have been spared

the trouble of being married to you.

You've been cramping my style

since the morning!

Just tone down your attitude

a bit, okay?

What? What do you know

about me?

I would know, if you told me!

Why should I tell you?

Don't tell me!

I don't care!

She's just chattering all the time.

Let's go, now.

Oh, no!

She's crying!

Goli, do something.

What will you do, now?

Do something!

Do something...

Listen! Look here.

Turn towards me.

Turn towards me!

Why are you crying?

You're crying?

I was just joking!

I'm a funny guy!

Okay, wipe your tissue with

your tears.

I mean, wipe your tears

with your tissue.

Please stop crying.

Listen, I won't talk to you,

if you don't stop crying.

Please stop crying!

My parents don't take me seriously!

Why are you doing that?

That's the problem with boys.

- What is it?

You blurt out the first

thing that comes to your mind.

Then, you'll say, I was joking!

Nothing is ever right.

All of you are the same.

You have hot tempers,

you have fragile egos!

You don't believe the other

person is worth anything.

But, things will get sorted out

if we talk.

Sorry, there are some things

to which I can't react.

Can I say something?

Share it.

Arnav and I were in love.

We had minor fights, during

a three year relationship.

At first we used to say

sorry to each other.

Then, after some time, I said sorry

more often than him.

Then, I was the only one

who said sorry.

Whether it was my fault or not.

One day, we argued about some movie.

It got out of hand.

He got upset and, he took a rickshaw

and he left.

I was not expecting this.

I waited for him to come back.

But, he didn't come back.

I don't know why...

...I wasn't able to say sorry to him.

I guess, he didn't know how to get

angry or cajole someone.

Perhaps, he was waiting

to go away from me.

When he found a chance, he ran

away.

Listen to me.

Don't worry.

I am alright.

Yes. But, listen to me.

I don't need your sympathy.

No, I am...

Anyway, boys are like that.

- Like what?

Offer your shoulder,

if the girl is in tears.

Give her some sympathy.

I don't want that.

- I...

I can manage myself.

Seriously.

Shall we go?

We're getting late.

Goli, if you don't mind,

can I use your phone again.

Actually, I need to make a call

if you don't mind.

Yes, go ahead.

Go ahead and do it,

I'll be right back.

Where are you going?

So, did you speak?

He's so busy...

I know what you were

going to say!

What?

What was I going to say?

Yes, alright, I know!

It happens. Sometimes.

- Of course.

Do you remember the last

time you were serious?

I was a bit serious in the seventh

grade, when lfailed in math.

Even then, you were just a bit

serious?

Shame on you! Didn't your

dad thrash you?

My mom used to thrash me.

Dad still protects me.

But, how could you fail?

I couldn't help it. The boy

sitting in front of me, didn't study.

Can I say something?

You look very good when you

smile.

Listen to me!

Tell me something.

Why didn't things work

out with Sunchi?

I mean, that's if you want

to tell me.

My family wasn't ready.

Everything changes, you know.

The culture, the lifestyle,

everything. - So what?

So, I explained it to them.

I convinced them.

They did agree, for my sake.

- Then what?

Then, Sunchi created a problem.

- What?

She began to say, she won't live

with my parents. - Then what?

I said no. That's not done.

- Why?

Why?

- That's normal, these days.

And it is right, too?

- How is it right?

Separate out, before you have

fights after the wedding.

That preserves

the honor of both families.

Technically, it's just

one separate house.

Your own space.

The relationships don't change.

Did you and Arnav

fight about this, too?

No. We were very clear

about those issues.

Then what happened?

I guess, we weren't clear about

other things.

It's very easy for you to

say all that.

No, it's really very difficult.

But, this is life.

It's better to separate in time,

so you don't regret it later.

Perhaps, that's why most marriages

work out, these days.

If someone tells you how

a suspense film ends, first...

...would you ever watch the entire

film?

No, that would be so boring!
