wets himself again with petrol.

Mr. Pathak, if you wish

to set yourself on fire..

..please do so outside,

in the garden.

Why are you burning our

house with you? - Quiet.

Yes, exactly.

You heard that? You heard that?

After ruining my family he

is talking about his house.

Daddy, why don't you

dive and snatch it?

Shut up. You have done that.

- Awrong thing.

Awrong thing. Yes.

- Stay away. Stay away. Stay away.

I'll set myself on fire.

Brother..

- Stay away. Stay away. Stay away.

Brother, Khushi is notjust your

daughter but his friend as well.

Yes.

- Yes.

I'm sure she must have seen

something special in Raju.

I'm sure the day you see them happy,

you will forgive them.

That day will never come in my life.

And there are hardly

any days left in my life.

Perhaps not even one.

Yes. He is right.

He is right, right?

Then keep this aside.

I'll commit suicide.

- You..

I'll commit suicide.

- Who are you threatening?

I'll help you.

Does anyone have a lighter?

No, I don't have it.

This lighter.. - You started smoking?

- You started smoking?

Shame on you.

- Brother, I didn't..

Don't change the topic.

What were you saying?

I'll help you deep fry.

What are you doing?

Prem?

- What is this?

What are you doing?

What are you doing, Prem?

Prem? Prem? - Will Mr. Pathak's

death affect anyone of you?

No.

- No. - Will the world end?

What.. What.. What..

I will burn him down. Okay.

I won't spare you. I won't spare you.

- Prem. Prem.

You'll ruin everything.

- Prem.

Something has to be

done about this boy.

Hello, Guru. Hello.

- Come. Come, Ram.

Have a seat. Have a seat.

Look, Ram..

- Yes?

Prem has done a good

deed by uniting two lovers.

Guru, he ended brother and

Mr. Pathak's age old friendship.

Yes. - Prem that's the talks of

his marriage even before it starts.

What is it called?

- Ends. - He ends it.

Last month Guru sent a

dog to your place, right?

Yes. She is very nice.

- Yes.

She keeps everyone happy.

- Yes.

He sent two maids for

household chores. Naina and Sunaina.

They are very nice girls.

But cannot get Prem married to them.

- Right. Right.

Similarly, Guru has

found a bride for Prem.

Ram, listen to me. You know

the Malhotras from America..

Yes.

- Their daughter is perfect for Prem.

Yes. She is a Bandit Queen.

A Bandit Queen?

- A Bandit Queen?

Phoolan.

- Only her behavior.

She is very good at heart.

Her name is Pooja.

- Wonderful!

She is the only girl

who can change Prem.

Guru, then why are

you doing that in this?

Why are you delaying this?

- Why the delay?

She is coming to Bangkok

tomorrow for her friend's wedding.

It will be great if Prem likes her.

Whether Prem likes her or not..

..only Pooja will come

to our house as that.

What? - A bride.

- A bride. A bride. - Yes.

Hello. - Karan, I've been trying all

six numbers of yours since so long.

Tell me what happened

to the wedding.

I ran away from the wedding.

But my passport is with them.

What? It'll take at least

But what will

I do in the meanwhile?

They will find me.

I'll call you later.

- Hello! Hello!

Hi, Pooja. Do you need a ride?

No, thank you. Prem and his

uncle are coming to fetch me.

Prem, Pooja is coming

at Terminal 3..

..why are we standing

at Terminal 7?

That's the game plan.

- Why are you throwing it?

How will Pooja recognize us?

That's what I want.

She shouldn't recognize us.

Why

What are you doing?

What is this..

This.. is a proof for my father

that we went to the airport..

..but Pooja Malhotra

didn't come here.

So we came here..

- Uncle, tell me one thing.

Neither you nor

I have ever seen her.

Nor has anyone

in the family has seen her.

Guru has sent an imported

Pooja Malhotra from America..

..so that she marries me

and changes me? - Correct.

Uncle, I need a very impish,

roguish and talented wife.

Impish, roguish and talented?

But nowadays it's so

difficult to find..

..an impish, roguish

and talented wife.

All of them are married.

I am there.

But what will tell our Guru?

Let the Guru's mother go to hell.

Does he have a sister?

- Yes.

Then we shall send both of them.

- Okay.

Both mother and

sister will go to hell.

Prem.

Who called me Prem so hatefully?

What did you think? I will

wait for you at Terminal 3?

And you will click

a photograph here..

,,and fool father?

- Pooja.

How did you recognize us?

Not you, him.

Daddy had given his description

when I was leaving America.

I scanned the entire airport.

He was the only rogue

with an innocent face.

Wow. Wow. Wow.

What an image you have, Prem.

I'm proud of you.

Why are you in a wedding dress?

What did you think? I'll come

from America in a two-piece bikini?

It would've been better.

- Just shut up.

Come on!

Let's go.

Excuse me.

Don't take advantage of

the situation.

And don't you dare touch me.

Let's go.

Wow. Impish, roguish and talented.

I should have asked for

something else, uncle.

What better could

have you asked for?

Think about it.

Ayoung and old imp at home.

And they will bet on

who is more impish.

Your aunt and

she will get along well.

Truly. I'll bet on your girl.

They are here.

Pooja is here. Pooja is here.

Brother, is she Pooja?

Or has he brought some

other girl from her wedding?

You all must be surprised, right?

Seeing me dressed as a bride.

You see, a girl looks her

best in a wedding dress.

So, I told myself,

''Pooja, don't take a chance.''

''If you want to impress everyone..''

''..then go dressed as a bride.

- Very impressed.''

Impish.

Okay, tell me, how

did you like our Prem?

Yes. How did you like you?

I liked all of you a lot.

Very talented.

And if all of you support me then..

..we will change him

for good as well.

Talented also.

- Okay. Then all of us are with you.

Come in. Come in. Come in.

- Come in, dear.

She will change him for good.

She didn't bring any bags with her.

What was the need to

bring any luggage?

I'm not staying in a hotel.

I'm staying with my in-laws.

There is anything lacking in here?

Yes, only that like

you was lacking. That..

What?

- What do you call a son's that?

Daughter-in-law. - We were

only lacking a daughter-in-law..

..and now your presence

has changed that as well.

Your father has become that.

- Mad?

Should I tell your father?

You are saying such things

about my elder brother? Yes?

Tell us, when are you

going for the wedding?

I just ran from a wedding.

You ran away from it?

But you were going to Phuket

for your friend's wedding, right?

Yes, I was going to.

What do you mean, ''I was going to?''

If you didn't go there then

how did you ran away from it?

By ran away I mean I got rid

of it with great difficulty.

Why would I unnecessarily

waste my time in Phuket?

That's right. Why

waste time in Phuket?

If I would attend my

friend's wedding..

..then how would I make

arrangements for my wedding?

And I have to fulfil the

responsibility Guru has given me.

She will marry you.
