Once there was a village. A

king lived there with his queen.

They gave birth to a lovely

princess, one day.

The king and queen were very happy.

But, the village didn't

appreciate that.

Everyone was angry

with the princess.

The king's mom told the queen...

...we wanted a prince!

But, you've given birth to a girl.

You're jinxed!

Do one thing. Abandon her somewhere.

Or else go away with her,

forever.

We will get the king a

new queen.

But, the king wanted

his princess.

He loved the queen

and the princess.

That's why, he took them both

and left the village.

They never returned to the village.

And as I grew up...

...l began to realise, that

I was the princess of the story.

Dad left the village just for me.

Rupali, it's true.

The village didn't prosper

after all of you left.

Everything was ruined.

Later, there were no

girls being born.

That's why, this princess isn't

going to leave.

I will stay here.

I want to change the end of

dad's story.

That's if you stand by me.

Rupali, we will change

things together.

I have to get something else.

- What?

The Sarpanch robbed my brother's

land.

I want to get that back.

How?

Just call everyone, now.

Tell them, lam willing

to get married.

Susheel! Are you having

stomach cramps?

I'm going for the bridegroom

selection. Get out of my way.

Hurry up. I need to have

something darned.

Darn what?

I stitch clothes.

- What do you think this is?

"Who is she standing

in the orchard?"

"Sir, I'm standing guard."

Hey, you...His name

is really difficult to remember.

What is it?

What are you doing?

Growing a moustache?

You can't grow

them like that.

You need this, for that.

What?

Why don't you catch my drift?

Oh, no!

He's hitting a grown up boy!

I keep telling you...

...why won't you get married?

- What's his problem?

Oh! - Have you seen how

jaundiced he looks?

Why did he come here?

- Now, don't say that.

I'm here, you can't match up.

When will she arrive?

- Where is...

Bajya?

- Hey! - We are all faulty.

Bajya!

- You're faulty, too! - Bajya!

Bajya!

Bajya!

- Be quiet! Don't talk so much.

Uncle is here. Surya...

- What are you saying?

When will the girl arrive?

- God!

But, she has to choose first...

- Hey!

Don't hit me!

- Back off!

What is with you?

- Hey, listen!

You know what...

- Be quiet, all of you!

Yes. - Sit.

Is this the Masod marketplace?

They are all losers.

Calm down!

Sit down.

- Take this.

Vice chief, move your backside!

Stop it.

- He's all cheek!

Rupali will come here, soon.

But, what did I say?

But... - But...

...don't make any noise.

- Okay.

Rupali!

Rupali!

She's coming this way!

Oh, my!

Move it!

Hey!

God! Are they all here to get married?

I would say this is a less number.

Suresh is here.

Glad to see you.

- Two down!

Let them breathe!

- What happened?

What is going on?

What is it?

- Pick him up!

Did you see Sunny Leone's

new video? - Where?

Get up!

- Where is it?

What happened to him?

- He had an epileptic fit.

Why?

- Wen...

...he's not used to seeing

such a beautiful girl. He lost it.

One moment.

All of you are here, willing to

marry like fools.

But...

- But. - But.

She has some conditions.

- Yes. - Yes.

Tell them.

My first condition...

...the boy has to be self reliant.

That's a lot who have gone

with the first condition.

My second condition.

The boy has to be over 21 years old.

We've lost so many

with the second!

My last and final condition.

The boy has to be educated.

They're all gone.

- There are a few.

Where are my slippers?

What? - Go on in.

You've lost your chance.

What on earth?

No wonder!

Get back in there!

Why did you come back?

Dad pushed me back in.

- He's useless, anyway.

See?

Hey, guzzler.

You're not 21, yet.

- This is tough.

You're not educated,

either.

Did you pass the tenth grade?

I gave the exam four times

and still didn't pass.

I am the most educated

amongst all of us.

Alright, fine.

Submit your educational

certificates and age proof.

Ma'am, I have my certificate

here.

Right now?

- Not now. After 2 days.

Come and give this to uncle.

- Uncle?

Who should we give it to?

- To me. - To you? - To you.

Are you going to stay, now?

- Yes.

Get going.

Fools!

And it's another game!

Uncle!

- What?

The farming is nice.

Stay for lunch.

- No. - I...

No. - Why?

- Please, stay.

What is it?

Tell me.

What's for lunch?

- We're having mutton.

Forget it, then.

- No!

I thought, Suraj would stay

with the rest. - Got it? - Okay.

Right.

- Wm do.

How can he stay?

- You have to come then.

why?

- He's different.

And of course...

That's okay.

No big deal.

Come on, let's have lunch.

How are you doing?

Go and freshen up. - What did

you cook? Eggplant?

Hurry it up!

- Almost done. Here you are.

Vice chief! You've passed 10th

grade! This calls for sweets.

When?

- See? Just now.

No one will guess, right?

Even those who made the

original won't know.

I don't know what you

are saying.

There are all zeroes here.

It says, pass down below.

It does say pass here.

One certificate for

the two of you?

There's another behind

the first one.

Oh!

' Yes!

That's okay.

So tell me, how much did

you score in social science?

Social? We didn't have that subject.

- Yes.

I can see that, by looking

at you. - Yes.

Do you remember the name of

your school? - Yes.

St. Tams.

- What? Ten Tams?

St. Ams!

Sant Tambdebaba School.

- Yes.

Can we go in?

- Yes.

You can't go in just like that!

Uncle! My certificates!

Hey, wait up!

I have certificates, too!

So what? I'll go in.

- No, I'll go in.

I will go in! - No, I will!

One moment.

I will decide, who goes in.

Wow! So, can I leave?

Bajya, dad is here!

Your certificate?

What's the time, friends?

My watch has stopped

working. It's too old.

I guess, I'll get a nice new watch

at the wedding.

No!

Bharat Rao, you can go in.

Didn't we give you stuff?

- We did!

He gave a Redo.

So, he goes first and all of

you will follow one by one.

Do you get it?

Redo! It sets the tone, right here.

Loser!

Excuse me! - What?

Why are you sitting on the floor?

Sit on the bed. That'll do. - Okay.

What is your name, again?

I am the vice chief of council

of Bharat Rao Zende.

Call me anything you want.

Dear.

Sir.

Bharat Rae.

Dada... no, not that.

Bharat Rae?

What kind of wife do

you want?

There's no doubt about that.

Someone just like you.

Just like you. Let's take

a selfie.

Sure, we'll do that, later.

Sit and let's talk, first. - Okay.

So? What do you think of your wife?

"She laughs and it is moonlight.

She blushes and she is alluring."

"She is captivating, when I see her.

The queen of my heart."

"Simple and yet

devastating, is what I want."

"Simple and yet

devastating, is what I want."

"Her body is flaming hot,

which makes me tremble."

"In every par-t of me, love

has overwhelmed me."

"This solitude is killing me.

Come closer."

"Every direction will whimper,
