'And thus begins another Great

Indian Wedding Spectacle.'

'In other words... A Delhi Wedding.'

'Honestly speaking...'

'...I was never in favor

of such a grand-wedding.'

'I always wanted to elope and get married.'

'First, I would've fought with my family.'

'Imagine, night-time, on

a bike, the highway...'

'Just the two of us, and a bag.'

'The bag filled with few clothes...'

'...and a promise of everlasting love.'

'Papa would've abused my

husband over the phone.'

'Mom would've slipped into

depression... and...'

'Well, a lot could've

happened, if I had eloped.'

'But, before any of this

could come true...'

'...Mudit came into my life.'

'Frankly speaking, until 2 weeks ago...'

'...everyone was so concerned

about my marriage...'

as if India's GDP depended on it.'

'As soon as I said 'yes'...

'...I became the 'Raymond Man' overnight.'

'For the first time, someone

asked for my opinion...'

'...in Pammi aunty's land dispute case.'

'A glass was automatically reserved

for me in the car's trunk.'

'Suddenly, my opinion

mattered in everything...'

'...ranging from politics to

my nephew's mushroom haircut!'

'Seriously dude, I am Mudit...

not Mahesh Bhatt.'

'And then, everything suddenly changed

when I met Sughandha 2 weeks ago.'

'You call that a meeting?'

'You wouldn't even come up and talk to me.'

'Oh great, you knew that I was...

- Interested in me.'

'The entire Nehru Place knew that.'

But, why doesn't he say something?

- Is he mute?

Out of cash! Out of cash!

- Oh, God! - We're out of cash.

Please leave.

Listen, I am going to the

ATM at the back, okay.

Sugandha! Sugandha!

'Oh really?'

'So, what was your first impression of me?'

'Nothing...'

'One shouldn't form

opinions about Delhi guys.'

'Or you end up with too many expectations.'

'And, you were so weird.'

You took so long to come

up and talk to me.'

You could've approached me instead.'

'No way... the girl never

makes the first move.

It's always the boy!'

'Now, you're making up your own rules.

- That's the rule.'

'I don't agree.'

Stop it you two.

What have we been doing

for the last one month?

Counting fountain lights,

Eating kilos of groundnuts!

And now... this bear dance.

Come one... come all.

She's looking this way. - Who, the bear?

Don't lose focus, my friend.

She is looking at the bear.

Don't just stand there and stare.

Go talk to her.

Look, man, sister-in-law

is our birth-right.

Go on... don't just stand there.

- Fine, I am going.

Bro, I beg you..

I said I am going! - Go now!

Please, go.

Do it.

Go Simran... go!

He's coming.

He's coming this way. - Wait. He's coming.

He'll talk... he'll talk this time...

Go on.

Get him off.

Shoo... shoo...

Get him off.

He'll bite me... He'll bite me...

Someone get him off!

Get him off. - Don't get too close.

Hold on... Hold on... Let it go.

Get him off me.

Do something, will you?

What can I do, mister?

Shoo...

Give me that cloth...

Hit him!

Get him off!

Get him off! Get him off!

Get him off!

That thing will kill him.

So, you were approaching the girl...

when a bear jumped on you? - Yeah!

You're insane.

All this effort to talk to a girl.

You should've sent her a

proposal online instead.

You want me to send her a proposal online?

Why? Don't you watch TV?

Those who get jumped by a

bear, send proposals online.

You know what, create a

nice profile for yourself.

And, don't worry if she says yes.

We'll take it from there.

And remember, try not to

make spelling mistakes.

"Say it out loud..."

"That your son is a coward."

"And, I will spare 'his life."

"Earlier, I was always worried

about my daughter's security."

"You know how vulnerable

young girls can be."

"But then, I learned about

this safety device."

"One device stays with me..."

Go... Mom!

"...and the other one is always

in my daughter's purse."

"That's how I keep a tab on my daughter."

"And now I can sleep peacefully."

"And, even my sugar

levels have normalized."

Wow Vimla, you were amazing.

I am really proud of you.

You're looking fantastic.

Brother, what do you think?

She looks weak.

Isn't that right?

She's looking fat. - I know.

Sugu's in a really good mood.

I think we should talk to her...

about the online proposal we

received last night. - Yeah...

Speak softly, otherwise,

brother will overhear you.

Brother... - Yeah...

You're discussing Sugu's

wedding, and I don't know.

What? - No, it's not what you think.

Let's discuss this later.

Your wedding? - What's going on?

Why later?

Are we trying to jinx your happiness?

Stop yelling at me, brother.

I haven't spoken to Sugu about this either.

Let's make one thing clear.

Who's the eldest in the family, me or her?

You see, brother.

You're the eldest in your family,

and I am the eldest in mine.

Doesn't matter how old you get...

but, I am always going

to be older to you.

Were you even going to invite

me to your daughter's wedding?

Which daughter?

What wedding?

Brother...

My wedding's been fixed...

and I don't know about it.

- Can't you stay quiet?

You like getting yourself humiliated.

If they don't want to invite

you to the wedding...

then, that's their decision. - What?

You know what, Vimla.

Let us know whenever you fix

a date for the wedding.

We'll come over if we're not busy.

Hold on a second...

You guys even fixed a date for my

wedding, and I don't know anything.

Can you please stop ranting about

'Humiliation', sister-in-law

We paid for your popcorn.

And, I was just telling him...

that, we'll ask brother to

perform the rituals at her wedding.

What rituals? - That's true.

Will someone tell me who sent the proposal?

It was an online proposal, dear.

- Online?

And you...

Did you tell us when Neelam

flunked her college?

No!

That's enough! - Why drag her in all this?

One second.

So, is this revenge?

We would've definitely told you.

But, you forgot all about us

as soon as you left Haridwar.

How can you forget your childhood days...

when you used to pee on my shoulder?

I'll do it again if you behave

like that same elder brother.

I am that same elder brother.

I certainly am...

Else, I would've demanded to share...

the expenses of our

father's death anniversary.

But I am being generous with you.

Will someone show me who sent the proposal?

He's a really nice boy. - Boy?

What is that?

Girls school... girls college...

girl-friends.

Even for my swimming classes,

you enrolled me in the girl's batch.

Now what do I do with a guy?

Show her. - Just a second...

Here you go, dear.

I thought... - Take a look...

Not again... - Wait, I'll show you too.

Stop behaving like a kid.

Ginny, it's him. - Oh, my...

It's the same bear guy!

How dare he?!

All he had to do was ask for my number...

But, he sends a proposal online?

This isn't right.

Can only hot girls have a love-story?

Don't normal girls have any feelings?

Look at his package first. - I

don't even want to see his face.

I've been cheated.
