I don't have the time

to close my eyes and carry on.

Focus on your work, monkey.

Your voice will also be finished

You should marry me!

Why?

Because your parents don't love you

Means?

What is your name?

Don't you know?

'Geeta'...

Oh 'Geeta'!

If your parents loved you...

...they wouldn't have named you 'Geeta'

What's the problem with 'Geeta'?

If you love somebody...

...you're ready to face

every challenge for them

It's a challenge

to find a good name...

...but your parents took the easy way out

'Geeta' is the most common name

The first name that

comes to mind is 'Geeta'...

...thousands of women are named 'Geeta'

Perhaps you were even born

at a nursing home called 'Geeta'

Such lazy parents...

To not think of a unique

name for their only daughter...

...and just name her 'Geeta' !

I will call you Ta

Marry me 'Ta"...

and say 'Ta Ta' to your lazy parents

Cut it!

Absolutely Fantastic!

Mindblowing !

You were just superb!

Absolutely fabulous

You took the whole

scene to a different level

Thank you!

Thank you !

Why are you saying thank you?

He's praising the dialogue delivery,

not your face.

Bye, sir.

- Greetings, sir.

Such a big star...

He never says a word when I do make-up

Trusts me completely...

Very good man...he drops

his servant in his own car

But that old servant

ls completely crazy

Keeps muttering to himself

Turn the AC off...

Relax. Relax.

What is this?

An injection.

No doctor... please !

No injection!

Okay.. okay..

No... no injection !

It's over. It's over.

No.. no.. no..

No need to clean up today.

Today is the first

time he has spoken to me.

I'm okay.

I will go home,

bathe and come to the shoot

So much love for your voice

I'm hungry---

What are you doing?

Shamitabh sir

Yes, sir

I have an idea...

Once you're okay...

I want to be the first director

to record a song in your voice.

One song in your voice.

It will be sensational sir

Will do it sir...

Sir...thank you so much sir

Don't be so tense

After listening to the song...

...people may throw shoes at you
