One minute.

Am I thief? If I'd to steal, l

would've stolen diamonds, laptop...

...that keeps lying over

there, will I steal the toilet cleaner?

Is that all?

I've not had a good

motion since morning...

...and on top of that

dealing with this lady.

Happy?

huh?

Happy?

You should be happy...

...at least there won't be

any thief in this house.

She was the main cause of his BF.

You keep quiet.

Why are you worried? She'll come

back after two days saying sorry.

No no no, that's not the point.

This is the 5th maid we

have changed in 2 months.

We live in a society dad.

We need to maintain good

relations with at least some people...

What relationship Piku?

Should we take that cleaning

lady out for dinner?

Don't talk nonsense Dad..

What is your problem Piku?

Budhan is here to help you.

When your mother got me here,

she said I'll do a respectable job.

Fine then you start going

to my office from tomorrow...

Hey Piku..

What?

Relax!

And where are you going again?

Serve him the dinner on time...

l won't eat at home.

Piku...

Piku...

Yeah Aniket.

I'll be there at 9 o clock.

I am not in touch with any one...

...but do you remember Rhea?

She had that funny hairstyle.

Well, anyway she got married.

Yeah, its surprising..

Anyway, what's happening with you?

Usual, that Gurgaon project.

98.8.

Check this.

As if my checking

will make it high...

Shut up...

How much was it in the morning'?

98.4..

At 12pm it was 98.6..

After that?

- 98.8..

See it's increasing...

Fever?

98.8..that's normal.

Ok..I'll call him.

Everything ok?

Yeah..sorry, just one sec.

Yeah, yeah go ahead.

Dad ate Bryonia twice, he said

potty was hard along with 'mucus'.

No no later he said it looked

like mango pulp, yes and 98.8 fever.

Ok thank you...

Should we order dinner?

No actually,

I'm not so hungry now..

Why?

No..just why don't

you..why don't you go ahead?

I'll just drop Piku

and come back home..

...yeah... ok bye... bye bye.

He hasn't seen any

of Satyajit Ray's films.

And he doesn't vote!

I was somehow tolerating him..

You were right...

He's such a jerk!

Did dad call you up?

Yes.

Hun...

Why did you react like this?

Like what?

I said Dad called, so you said "hun".

Right...l asked if Dad called you

and you said "Yes" so I said "hum"?

So what's wrong?

- Who reacts like that, What is "huh"?

Dad called me...so

you should say "ok".

What is "Hun"?

I know but you said you

said "yes", so I said "hun".

No you didn't say, you said "hun".

Come on Piku...

...I just said "hun"

so what's wrong in it?

Piku mentioned yellow, pulp.

Right but then later.

It was greenish..not black,

but greenish...yellowish green.

Why don't you both

sit with a shade card?

What percent of green? How

much percent of yellow?

Sh*t is sh*t..

Mind your business!

- But Grand Pa.

My heart says.

One day you'll have a great motion...

just the way you desire...lots...

Yeah...then I will die.

Happy... satisfied...

Why is it a must to talk about

death right early in the morning?

Why can't he talk

about something positive?

What is so negative about death?

I am changing the medication dear...

...you can alternate with this one.

And remember one thing, where

there is a will..there is a way...

...and the way is of outside only...

Pappu you need to

leave for Motibaug...

Make sure you get there on time...

- Sure sir...

God knows when the

winters will come...

This summer has been harsh...

I haven't caused it...

Did I say it's because of you?

Then why are you telling me.

That's because you're

sitting here so I am talking...

...imagine that I am not

here and keep quiet...

It's useless talking to you...

So don't talk... go home

and don't come here from tomorrow...

Why should I not come?

Because I am trying to work.

Oh really...even after been thrown out

of your job you still have such an ego?

Why is it really important

for you to keep reminding me of that?

But that's the truth...

Himachal taxi stand, yes.

No no I understand Rosy...

...but your Piku madam said she didn't want

any taxi from us so I didn't send anyone.

Fine I'll send...

Hey who's turn is it to drop

that madam from Chitranjan Park?

Why are you guys silent?

She's a regular client...you'll

have to tolerate her...

...and just because she insists on

driving fast doesn't mean you do that...

...don't you have your own mind?

See no one wants to go...

so why're you forcing them?

One minute...don't you

talk like Union leaders here.

Nannu...go take the car...

...and I am aware what you

and your daughter are up to...

Ritu is your sister.

Whatever it is...just watch out...

Excuse me!

- Yeah...you both

Aunt, how are you?

Fine...

- Aah here she is..

Hey Bhaskor da..how are you?

Did you pass Motion?

Hello ma'am.

- Hello.

These sweet pills won't help

you much...start allopathy...

Illiterate.

Hi...

Happy birthday sister.

So tell me what's the latest?

Nothing..usual..

How was your vacation?

Shimla was fantastic..you

must go once..

And enjoy yourself.

Mutton smelling good.

Anyways, where is uncle?

Why such a swollen face?

What happened?

Well she isn't married yet..

that's why all this...

..nothing serious I guess..

or am I missing something Piku?

I mean I am not saying I want

to take a long holiday...

...but may be just for a day or two

I can go somewhere..

Piku's right...

...every normal person

needs a break...

...for relaxation.

Oh nonsense...people aren't

relaxed in their own homes...

...with their own families but

they don't mind spending...

...on a train or a plane ticket

just to get to some far away hotel...

...and using some else's

used beddings... to feel relaxed...

...and these travel companies are

to blamed for it...it's all in the mind...

l am telling you..find

a nice boy..and..

Isn't your sex life active?

Your parter Syed?

It's a need.

Right, it's a need...

...but that's not a permanent solution...

why don't you both get married?

Aunt I don't Know... I'm

not even sure about him.

Again that useless topic..

You don't know marriage

is a bad word in our house?

People with low IQ only get married...

You mean I am low IQ?

My sister was low IQ?

In this whole world everyone

who is married is low IQ? - Hi hi...

Hope you are good?

Your Telegraph last 30 days.

Aah!

Lovely!

Nothing like Kolkata news..

Don't change the topic dada.

Don't waste your time.

- Again?

To be together in

good times and bad...

...is it low IQ'?

There's no salt in this?

I couldn't find salt...

..to take care of

BP...best to avoid...

But we don't have BP!

So stop hiding like this.

Again your changing the topic?

Was my sister low IQ?

Not just constipation,

dad has problems with women too...

No...not women but their

mentality is what I can't stand...

...your sister too..all her

life she just wanted to please me..

...that was her only

purpose..no aim for herself.

...I wanted her to
