Srinivas' labour team is

causing trouble, sir.

Then take Bala. See to it

that the work doesn't stop.

Srinivas' team would prove good

for us in the long run.

Long run! Times are not about

long runs, Anshuman.

A given day's work should be

completed the same very day.

l knew Rajeev would say that.

Rajeev, first, let me and Madhu

have a word with Srinivas.

Go ahead. Talk. But work shouldn't

stop and l trust you for that.

Sir, the workers have

found a stone..

..while digging at the site.

A part of the stone resembles

a Ganesha idol, sir.

What?!

- Yes, yes, Rajeev. - So?

The workers wish to build a

small shrine at that place.

What's wrong with you, Shyam?

How do you get such matters to me!

Tell the workers that whoever

wishes to can take the stone home.

And l won't change my

foundation plans for..

..such stupid superstitions.

Do you understand?

Oh yes.. l forgot to ask you!

lt was your wedding anniversary

yesterday, right?

Yes.

- Belated wishes, pal!

So, what did the two

of you do yesterday?

Well.. we were repenting the

fact that we got married!

Leave him or his ears will tear!

Rajeev.

- Yes.

lt'd take me six more months to

repay the loan l've taken from you.

Anshuman, l've already told

you, it isn't a loan.

Forget it, don't feel embarrassed.

What's this?

Yes, Vinay, tell me!

Guess what!

- Don't tell me.

We bagged the Delhi

lT park contract?

Yes.

- That's good news!

Thank you so much.

l'll call you later.

Shyam?!

- Yes sir!

We've got the Delhi contract!

- Congratulations, sir!

Anshuman, l'll leave.

Right! Thank you.

Hey, give me the keys. Sit.

Hello?

Hello, madam, madam,

l am Shyam speaking.

On the site..

Aarti!

- Hi! - Guess what?

What happened?

- Guess what.. - What?

We've bagged the contract

for Delhi's lT park.

Really?

- Yes.

Rajeev.

- Yes. - l'm so happy.

Everything's going great, isn't it?

- Yes.

Lets hold a prayer service

next week in our house.

As you wish. But don't

make me sit through it.

But Rajeev, if God's blessings bring

in happiness and good fortune..

..then why not?

Correct! l slog, l make the effort..

..and every time, the credit

goes to.. your God!

Great, isn't it?

Rajeev!

Listen.

The Ganesh idol at the site..

- Oh great!

So the news has reached you too!

Rajeev, if all the workers wish

for a small shrine there..

..then get one built.

Aarti..

- Do you know?

l've seen something similar

at Ganpatipule.

People believe in the

powers of that idol.

They venerate it.

Do l interfere when you pray

or hold rituals at home?

No, isn't it?

Then please do not involve

your God in my work.

l'm happy without Him.

But Rajeev l was just..

l think.. Cut it out.

Better that way.

Listen, can l have a

cup of tea? Get it.

Smile now. You look.

l'll just get it.

Laxmi, go get the kids.

Yes madam.

''Small joys..

..fly like butterflies.''

''Along the walls..''

Hey Rohan!

- Bye!

You soiled your uniform again

today? - What do l do?

lt was raining, the playground

was full of slush.

You soil your uniform everyday!

lt's me who has to do the washing!

Not you! The washing machine!

Sister, how do people sit in

the plane if it's so small!

Dumbo! lt isn't small, it looks so.

lf it's not small then

why does it look so?

lts far off that's why.

You mean if it comes closer,

it would get bigger?

Double dumbo! lt won't

get bigger, it is big!

lf it's big then why

does it look small?

''Small joys..

..fly like butterflies..''

- Hi Mani!

C'mon, bravo!

So what did you do in school today?

l drew Spiderman in

the drawing test!

Spiderman?!

A Sardar Spiderman, Papa!

- Sardar Spiderman?!

Yes! With turban and a beard!

Papa!

- Yes.

l'm enacting the role of Helen

of Troy in a play at school.

Wow!

- Mary ma'am has selected me!

That's good! That's good!

Who's Helen?

- What, grandma!

You do not even know

about Helen of Troy?!

Raksha, there are a lot of things..

..that your grandma knows

and you don't, okay!

Don't make fun. Right?

Papa, let's go out today..

- Yes, of course.

First you bathe, change

your clothes..

..and finish your homework.

And then we'll go. C'mon.

Let's go!

- Be careful!

Raksha, careful!

Rajeev.

- Yes, mom.

Switch on the TV.. let's

see what's being aired..

..on Aastha channel.

The base of spiritual

preaching is that..

..one must accept

everyone as his own.

Lord hanuman is the God of powers.

ln the olden days, there

used to be a..

..Lord Hanuman temple

outside every fort.

When Lord Hanuman went in

search of Mother Sita..

..no demon was able to stop him.

Sister Laxmi venerates Lord

Hanuman everyday too.

What will she do with his powers?

You will always remain naughty!

When Lord Hanuman was your age,

he was naughty too.

Very vile!

Vile?

Papa, grandma was telling

us about demons.

Grandma, are the demons

afraid of the Gods?

What are you telling them, mom?

Just that.. how would one

realize the power of God..

..unless there are demons.

C'mon! Go to sleep! C'mon!

C'mon! C'mon!

Good night, grandma.

You too go to sleep.

O' Lord Ram.

O' Lord Ram.

Rohan! Raksha! Do not run!

You'll fall down!

Yes, l've allotted the work

to Anshuman and Madhu.

l think they'll handle it.

Rajeev, l find Anshuman and

Madhu a little weird.

Why?

- Especially Madhu.

Her mannerisms.. l find her insane!

Yes! - No, pal. lnitially

l used to think the same.

But she's quite smart.

And you cannot judge people..

..according to their mannerisms

or behaviour.

No, friend. Yes.. she looks a

little insane and childish..

..but as far as the work's

concerned, she's good.

She's good but she's completely mad!

l trust them for their work

and l trust them completely.

Whatever!

Raksha!

- Raksha.. - What happened?

Raksha!

- Raksha!

Get up!

What happened? Did you get hurt?

No, papa, just a little..

Why don't you listen

to what mamma says!

Papa she beat me first.

Go inside! Else you'll get

a beating from me too.

Mamma..

Rajeev, at least think

before yelling at them.

You.. are hurt? You are alright?

lt's my mistake. l incited Rohan.

l'm sorry.

Rajeev loves his daughter

a lot, doesn't he?

Are you alright? Come.

Oh, when did you people come?

- Just now.

Come, sit. You are okay,

right? Come.. come..

Hello, yes, yes, tell me.

Rajeev, we had a word with Srinivas.

He has agreed.

Okay, but keep him under control.

There's no need to worry.

This time, we have him

fully under control.

And Rajeev, you should worry

when there's a problem.

Not when there is no problem at all.

Okay.

Raksha, did you read the

books that l had sent?

No! Those books are meant for kids.

You have grown up but you still

sit in your dad's lap.

My wish! What have you

got to do with it?

Raksha, is this the way

to talk to elders?

Papa, l don't like her.

- Raksha!

How sweet.

Go inside..

Go.

Sorry Madhu, she's just a kid.

She's a kid.

By the way, l've organized

a party tomorrow night.

On the occasion of getting
