Ru-Ba-Ru

Synopsis: Bangkok-based Tara Mishra and Nikhil Singh meet at a wedding ceremony and fall instantly in love with love with each. They move in together and continue to live a fairly blissful lifestyle until Tara is invited to India to attend a wedding. Nikhil not only refuses to accompany her but also refuses to introduce his widowed mother, Meera, who is now living with another male, Dilip, to her. Tara, a talented singer/dancer, feels neglected as he is always focused on his business, is not prepared to make any long-time commitment, and forgets important events. An encounter with a taxi-driver compels Nikhil to change his mind, but things do no work out, Tara leaves him and shortly thereafter passes away in an accident. A devastated and guilt-ridding Nikhil returns home, cradling her photo and falls asleep. He wakes up the next morning with Tara alive and well next to him. Was he hallucinating the events from the previous day or was he being warned by fate to change his ways?

Good morning Bangkok!

Greetings!

Brilliant morning to all

of you who are up right now!

Today's forecast, scattered

thunderstorms by the afternoon.

Here's where I leave

you with one morning...

...and have a beautiful day.

I wake up feeling so fine.

Take a look around,

this world of mine.

I have got, good time.

Good feeling! Memories.

That keeps me breathing.

It's just the day today to

take a walk along the riverside.

Think about my life.

Reminisce for a while.

See the little girl,

watching me with open eyes.

She knows that I am in love,

happy to be alive.

It's a beautiful... day.

You take my breath away!

You take my breath away!

It's a beautiful... day.

Miss you, now you are going.

You will be here,

my whole morning.

Traffic, if you are

headed out for the weekend.

Make sure you head out

early on that expressway.

Today's love forecast

for the 21 st of September.

Attached, you are

having a hard time.

It appears that someone, a

partner or a collaborator...

...has done something that

has caused you a heartache.

Missed me?

You only went for jogging...

...and not to your parent's house.

- Really!

You are coming along

with me to my parents place.

No!

Why are you troubling me

so early in the morning?

I have been troubling

you for so many days...

...that's why you

agreed to go to India.

You talk a lot, isn't it?

I like your fragrance a lot.

Eternity! By Calvin Kline!

Eternity! By Calvin Kline!

You smell, silly.

By Calvin Kline!

The way you are going...

...I am surprised that

you even know my name.

Riah, can you please...

Nikhil!

I am sorry!

Time to go!

- No!

Getting late!

Ms. Riah!

As you...

Immersed in my heart.

Nikhil!

- Yes!

Did you talk to the travel

agent about the tickets?

Nix! You are coming, aren't you?

You know I can't promise!

But you promised me that this

time you will come along with me.

There is a marriage.

And you don't get a

better opportunity than this...

...to meet everyone, Nikhil.

Can we talk about

this later, please?

I have got a lot on my mind.

Will you have breakfast?

No, just make some coffee for me.

Jesus!

Can't you be careful, man?

God!

Show me!

How much do you love me?

- Just a bit.

How much?

This much!

That's all.

I would have loved you more...

...if you wouldn't

have been such a nag.

But you don't get time

from your work, isn't it?

You love your phone more than me.

I don't just work for myself.

Don't I want to get married?

Really! And, how

can we get married...

...until we don't meet my parents?

Again you've started.

What?

But your mom-dad live right here.

Step-dad.

Whatever! But they live here.

Why don't you ever

introduce me to them?

You have me! What

will you do with them?

I have you, but you have work.

Okay! I have got a very

important presentation today.

And I don't want you pestering me.

- Okay!

If I can just get

this client, I swear...

And if you don't, then again

you will start running around.

Great, Tara! Great!

I am so sorry!

- Give it to me.

Please! I will do it, please.

Go and get ready!

Please, I will get more delayed!

Please, go and get a shower.

Tara!

Tara!

Yes! What happened?

Why aren't my dad's

cufflinks in the box?

In the box... - You know they

are very important for me.

Okay, I will put them back.

I haven't seen them.

The point is that, they

aren't in the box now. - Fine.

And I need them!

- It must be here!

Where can it go?

Let me find them. - No, no, no!

You haven't even changed.

Just two minutes, Nikhil!

- I have a presentation.

Please understand, I am

going to get late! - Okay!

Fine, I am getting ready!

- Please.

Okay, okay I am going.

Absolutely!

No, no, no don't

discuss the pricing at all.

I am coming there.

No, no, no I am okay with it.

Okay!

Hold on! Hold on!

Hey Anthony! Greetings.

Nervous! Are you kidding me?

Terrified is more like it.

Sure! Not a problem.

Sure.

Absolutely! Not a problem, Anthony.

Well, I will see you soon.

And... it will be great.

Please do come this evening, okay.

It will be great

pleasure to have you.

Okay! Bye.

Hello, yes!

Jai, call up Anthony.

And keep him in the loop.

I dwell in the

rays of the sunlight!

I live in the crazy storm.

I float on the breeze!

Yeah Jai!

Don't worry man!

I say to the drops of rain.

Of course.

I feel that this client

and my fate are connected.

We are going to rock!

See you there.

Bye.

Since when did you

start believing in fate?

I don't believe it!

It's just something to say.

It's inspirational, you know.

Just a second, take some flowers.

Oh man, I am getting late...

- It will just take 2 minutes.

Please baby. Thank you,

thank you, just a minute.

Thank you!

- 20 bucks!

20 bucks!

- Yes.

Bye!

- Bye!

Who are they for?

- For you.

Jacket!

- I am sorry! I am so sorry!

What has happened to you today?

- Sorry!

I am sorry!

Thanks!

You never bring some for me.

So I thought I should

take the initiative...

...since it's a special day today.

What's so special about it?

Nothing.

Tell me!

- Nothing Nikhil, forget it.

What do you mean forget it?

I hate this forget it business.

Either you don't say it.

- Okay.

And if I ask, then you

just say forget it. - Okay!

I am sorry, just forget it.

Fine, forget it then!

- Yeah!

Thanks, anyway!

They are lovely.

What's the use of

giving flowers, you know?

They wither away in a day.

If it would have been a pot...

- Really.

And then you have to water

the pot, what about that?

It's all about a

matter of commitment.

I am not committed!

I don't know, we

will see in the evening.

Let's see whether you

bring anything for me...
