and keep picking off other's boxes

Because of you I won't get to eat today

Came running all the way...

and you, Aman...

What was the rush?

Finished everything

But Sir...when did you say?

Huh?

I didn't say?

I came to the class... and I...didn't I?

No

Okay...

I'll come tomorrow... okay?

Stanley... Don't feel bad

Hey Stanley! Where're you going?

Home...

Hot, steamy food!

Mummy has cooked

Call us also

I will. Now can I go?

Go

Full meal! I'm always happy!

Stanley? Hot, steamy food today too?

Yes... I'm going

Wow!

Stanley? Hot, steamy food today too?

Why are you lying?

Abhishek saw you

outside school yesterday

You don't go home but just

wander around outside

What's the problem?

Tell us what's the problem

Dad took a flight to Delhi

Got a ticket for mom as well

So mom left

There's no one to cook... so...

Okay, lets do one thing

Until your mom returns

we'll share our lunch with you

But... what about Grumpy?

What about him?

That's if manages to find us!

Where are the scoundrels?

Excuse me. Where's

the Principal's office?

Its lunch-time now... Ramakant?

Good afternoon sir

Are they upstairs?

No sir

May I come in Father?

Yes?

Rajendranath lutshi,

the new history teacher

Of course, of course. Please come in

There's a class right after lunch

So do you want to begin today...

...or you could begin

tomorrow, if you wish

I'll begin today

Right, in that case,

please have lunch with me

Actually... I have my lunch box

Ah! All the best then

All the best Mr. Lutshi

What's this? Mutton?

No, no!

Yam and beans...

That's yam and beans?

I can't believe it

Why don't you try some?

Here...

Okay if you insist

Verma... he's just joined

At least spare his box

I always get by, this way or that

Mrs. Iyer, what have you got?

Rice pancakes

Can I have some to taste?

Its over

Aman Mehra and party...

Where were you'll yesterday?

Sir, we were under

the primary staircase

Huh?

Under the primary staircase

Why under the primary staircase?

Sir, Parshu told us not

to eat in the classroom

It messes it up

That's why we went there

Fair enough

Parshu was right

It messes up the classroom

not to eat here

Primary staircase is fine

Huh!

I'll have to make a trip

Huh!

Good afternoon sir

Now who are you?

I am Suchit

I am Tushaar

Good afternoon sir

But... Where's my Aman Mehra?

Said they'd be under the staircase

No one's come here, sir

Good afternoon sir

Mr. Verma, please have...

Sauted Kerala bananas!

Sauted Kerala bananas?

With onions and tomatoes...

Shall I?

Please

So, Aman Mehra and your party

Where were you at lunch?

Sir... Sir...

Huh?

Under the staircase 2-3 boys

were already sitting

So we went to the ground

As they said it was their place

Ground?

Hey! Aman Mehra

Huh?

Spine Gourd!

From our Maharashtra

It's tiny and green

and spikes all over

Tastes like bitter gourd, though.

Please have some

Have some

Searched every inch of the ground

But Aman Mehra and party

was nowhere to be found

Where were all of you?

Abhishek!

You always have an answer

Why is your mouth not opening now?

Sir... we were at the Amphitheatre

as it was very hot on the ground

We were at the Amphitheatre

Yeah... it was hot...

It was hot on the ground

Amphitheatre, cool-cool, eh?

Good idea!

But where's Verma?

Dont know

Must be trying to find us

Look, look... There he is!

Look at him! Running

like a hungry lunatic!

Aman Mehra!

He's gone mad!

Carrot dessert

Please have

Good afternoon sir

What're you staring at?

What're you staring at, huh?

You little rat!

Gnawing rat!

Gnawing and gnawing

Made a joke out of me!

Sir, sir... ground!

Sir, am phi theatre!

Sir, staircase!

Never felt so small ever in my life

You little rat!

Stand up!

Stand up!

Lunch box!

No Lunch box... No school!

Stanley, I am talking to you! Look up!

Look up!

No Lunch box... No school!

Cursed cur!

Get out! Get out of here!

Enough insult...

Way too much!

Don't want your food!

Good morning sir!

Thank you sir!

Abhishek shut the lunch boxes...

Not hungry today

Who's this little fellow?

My son, Jahaan

Oh! This is Jahaan!

He's really grown!

Of course!

Yeah!

You brought him to

school today... how come?

What to do, sir?

All these extra classes are no good!

Where will I keep him?

Well, there's something important

The Theosophy Society has

sent a circular to the school.

They are hosting this concert called

'A wonderland called India'...

that's the theme!

Very good!

Okay, now, this is for children

from different schools to participate

It's an inter-school concert

Now, I think we can certainly

send some promising boys

from our school to participate

Hmm?

What do you say?

Yes, of course

What do you say?

But who will take them for rehearsal?

Parents or teachers?

An elf. An elf sits on a twig

He was not very not very big

Not thin it's gone!

Elf, elf! Take care of yourself!

He's coming behind you

To seize you and bend you

and stifle your song!

This is unfair!

The best boy isn't here today!

What they'll do?

God knows who'll they

send for the concert?

Aman, give me your mobile phone...

Why?

Remember, Stanley had called his mom

during the football match

I saved that number

The phone is saying this

number does not exist

Must be something

Hey do you know where Stanley stays?

Must be somewhere in Chakala...

Where?

- I don't know

Stanley hasn't come?

No sir

Hey Abhishek! I saw

your friend, Stanley...

Where?

Stanley!!!

You know yesterday the

teachers

were testing the concert

I missed it?

Then what! All because of Grumpy!

Here! I tore this from

the notice board for you

What is it?

The concert rehearsals are in Juhu

The address is give here

You better go to Juhu

Fold it and keep it with you safely

Go... don't miss it!

Hello! Who are you?

Which school you're from?

I'm from Holy Family High School...

What is all this?

Concert!

Is it your concert?

Look at this teeny-weeny boy

Scale the milestone

Look at this teeny-weeny boy

Scale the milestone

Will just will at heart to do

Only that and he's in stride...

Look! Teeny-weeny boy has taken flight

Look! Teeny-weeny boy has taken flight

Look at this teeny-weeny boy

What's his problem?

Stanley ate from my

Lunch box and not sir's!

Why is Grumpy after Stanley only?

This is not fair teacher

We informed the proxy

teacher that Stanley wasn't there

Who would go in his place?

This is just not done!

Wedding cake?

Satiated?

After throwing Stanley

out of the classroom?

You don't have the right to

take a child out of the class

And what for?

For not getting a lunch box to class?

Does the principal even

know about this?

No

He's just a child

Have some shame Mr. Verma

Wow! Awesome!

Hi there!

What's your name?

Stanley

Stanley, which school are you from?

Holy Family High School

Holy Family...

We'd sent a form to your school...

Why did they not send you?

Because I didn't have a dabba...

Dabba? What Dabba?
