Salaam Namaste Page #4
Sory.
My boss Debonair. He can't say Ambar.
l guess...l'll be going.
Boss, everything's in the van.
l'll see you at the restaurant.
Architect.
Doctor.
Nikhil Arora.
Hambar.
Sh*t !
Crap !
And she's completely
ruined my reputation.
You're right. - But what a girl !
She's pretty, smar, funny.
You're right. - But she keeps
calling me Nikhil Arora.
She hates me.
You're right. - But she can
really play volleyball, man.
But he's never on time
and he's vey rude.
That's true. - But he's a
damn good cook.
The food at the wedding
was superb ! - That's true.
So, should l call her or not ?
- Call her.
What if she insults me again ?
- You weren't any better.
You threatened to sue her.
- But you told me to say that.
And l'm telling you to call her.
How can l call him ?
He'll never talk to me.
You insulted him first,
you should call him first.
But she stared it.
She should call first.
But he threatened to sue me.
He should call first.
lt doesn't really matter who calls first.
You're calling him ?
Busy. He'll call me if he wants to.
What happened?
Well...?
Busy. Forget it, she'll call
if she wants to.
He was here at seven o'clock
sharp for the interview.
The leopard changes his spots !
Hambar versus Nick.
Aren't you going to give me the rest ?
These are for Debonair.
Hambar versus Nick !
Are you a chef or an architect ?
Well, an architect by qualification.
But a chef by choice.
Then why did you become an architect ?
- To make my Dad happy.
And why did you become a chef ?
- To make myself happy.
All right .
So if you meet a beautiful girl
and she asks you what you do.
what will you say ?
lf the girl is well-educated,
like a lawyer or a doctor..
..then l'll say l'm an architect.
But if she's creative,
like a writer or an RJ..
..then l'm a chef.
- Oh, so your truth is changeable.
Well, truth is like a recipe.
Some things you hide and some you reveal..
So what's the one vital truth that
you've hidden so far and from whom ?
My wife doesn't know that we're married.
Sory, just kidding.
Hambar ! What is this ?
Attack ! Charge !
lf you became an architect to please
your Dad and a chef to please yourself..
..what will you do to please your mother ?
Mary a nice lndian girl ?
Well, l don't believe in marriage.
But if Mom was alive then, yes,
perhaps l'd even do that for her sake.
Oh l'm so sory - That's Okay .
Were you vey close to her ?
Vey. l was only foureen.
So young .
What is this !
What is your favourite dish ?
l'd have to say, lndian meatballs.
Will you tell us the recipe ?
This is your punishment for being late.
Sure, you're going to need
onions, ginger, coriander, capsicum..
Slowly, slowly ! Give our listeners
time to write this down.
Okay sory .
Mint, green chillies, sunflower oil.
l love you .
l love you .
Are you crazy ? .
No .
Then what are you saying ?
- That l love you .
You're nuts.
Why ? Because l love you ?
You don't love me.
Excuse me, how do you know that ?
love me or not, that's your choice.
Don't tell me that l'm not in love with you.
Mr Nikhil Arora..
The name is Nick .
Nick, Nick you are sick ! .
You're doing this just to irritate
me because l insulted you on air.
No, you were right in doing that.
l was late. l'm just..
All right, l'm putting an end to this .
lnterview over.
Okay people, time to listen to some music
Salaam Namaste 101 .5 FM.
Lovely, mindblowing ! Amazing !
Ambar.. Amby listen to me.
Go away.
But what have l done ?
Why are you so angy ?
How long have you known me ?
For five days.
Five days ?
Well, l'm counting two days
on the phone as well.
Listen, you don't even know me.
l do.
Really ?
What do you know about me ?
- Well..
You're an RJ,
you're studying to be a surgeon.
You're vey beautiful,
you dance vey well..
..you're superb at playing volleyball,
you hate latecomers.. and l love you.
You.. you can't be in love with me.
- Why ? What's wrong with you ?
With me ? Nothing's wrong with me, the
problem's with you. Get your head checked.
You think a two-day acquaintance is love !
- What else can you call this ?
Ever since l've met you,
l haven't been able to think of anything else.
And don't tell me that
you don't feel a connection.
Yesterday, there was something between us.
Yes there is.
But it can't be love.
Why ? Amby listen..
Excuse me. Yes ? - Hello .
What ? Oh crap .
l'm on my way.
l'm coming .
You told me to get married right ?
lt's all your fault.
You were the one who told me to
go around dropping handkerchiefs.
This is what happens..
when you make rash decisions.
Fall in love in one day..
Five days. - Get married in two.
lt's not a joke.
You don't know each other,
you don't know anything about each other..
and you decide to spend
the rest of your lives together ?
Really stupid. - Yes, he is.
But who's talking about marriage ?
lf we need to know each other,
let's do that.
lf we need to understand each other,
let's spend time together.
And all this because
l play good volleyball ?
is love, and maybe not.
Unless we give this feeling
a chance how will we find out ?
lt won't work Nick
- l know, it just won't work, Nick.
Why ?
Because he's a pig.
By the time you wake up,
l'm at the radio station.
You're working at the restaurant
from afternoon till night..
l'm in college, then l'm studying.
How do we meet ? Where's the time Nick ?
So..
so let's live together.
What ?
Yes ! Think..
you live in the hostel all alone,
and l live all alone.
Let's live together.
What's he saying ?
l'm just saying that Amby and
l should live together, you know.
That way we..
- You're talking about yourselves !
Cathy, wait.
Nick, no.
l'm not going to live with you.
Why ? You just said that we don't
have the time to meet each other.
This way we'll get the chance to
spend some time together, live together.
Nick, we've just met three days ago.
How can l live with you ?
So should we let go of our feelings
because our work timings don't match ?
Look Amby, l don't know what
we have between us. But l want to know..
because if this is love,
then l don't want to lose it.
No Nick.
Hey, wait a minute..
you're not thinking.. listen..
We'll live in separate rooms.
l don't mean living together like..
you're not thinking that, are you ?
l don't mean that.
Just what do you mean Nick ?
- l'll tell you.
We'll live in the same house, we'll eat
breakfast together, watch TV together
And we'll share the chores.
Then you'll find out..
what l'm actually like,
how l live at home, when l wake up..
ln the afternoon.
Vey funny, but listen..
l'll find out what you're like, what you
like doing, what your problems are..
which shows you like watching,
which games you like playing.
Do you like scrabble ?
