Don?

Yes.

Bon apptit

He

o..

Name... name what?

Antoniya...

- Antoniya

Feeding the hungry was a

good move. But drinks too?

I don't know

Why? What do you plan to do?

I also don't know.

What is this place?

Where are we?

Shall I tell you?

At once upon a time...

A story begins

Will the story be good?

Always the same

Boy meets girl,

starts hitting on her

Like it's his duty

Tries to impress her

Makes some excuse...

touch, feel, hug, kiss

lam a boy, I'll play my role

I'll plot, create situations

To hell with Corsica!

Figure out how to touch you,

get physical

Oh no! Then I'll have to play

Miss Touch-me-not

Keep a safe distance from you

Then I'll have to behave

No.

Hold myself back

No, no

Hold back? In Corsica?

What to do?

Shame is a woman's wealth

I won't...

What?

...be a rascal

Move.

Don't hold back. I'll be good

You'll see

I give you my word

Understand?

"As long as I breath, honey"

My passport arrives in 7 days

I'm here for a week

I'll soon have cash

I'll be broke by then

No introductions

We could be anyone,

I don't know

No talking?

No talking the truth

Let's promise

We lie about our lives

Speak nothing but lies

And after Corsica,

we'll disappear. Magic!

Never meet again

A twist in the story.

A story like no other

So whatever happens,

happens here

And what happens in Corsica...

Stays in Corsica!

Strolling down the open road

Showing off big-time

Hail rained down on me

No umbrella to my rescue

Can't decide

Shall I run or get drenched?

And then I thought,

dry up what's soaked

Be it female or male

Attention

She played a new ruse

And tricked me again

Trapped me for no reason

Curse you, O life

She played a new ruse

And tricked me again

Trapped me for no reason

Curse you, O life

You know...

You're the one

I played tag with

You're Laila, Shirin, Sohni, Juliet

Don't seek me in the forest

I am on WhatsApp

This is not your era or my era

Not female or male

Take the bait

She played a new ruse

And tricked me again

Trapped me for no reason

Curse you, O life

You're the one who...

...tugged at my dhoti

Where do you seek me?

I'm not in Kaaba or Kashi

I am on Twitter

Listen, O beloved

My heart betrayed me

When I set eyes on you

I lost all senses

My weeping heart whispered

My eyes now speak for me

I see a new dream every day

My restless heart cries out

Don't hide behind that veil

A devoted lover...

...can only talk of love

The heart may lament

So...

Baby, I have news

The gold will be hidden

behind the lighthouse

And handed over to Don

Gorgeous Mona Darling

is handling the transfer

I'm sure you know the name

Where's Teja?

Still at his dentist's

On behalf of Interpol,

I'll arrest the lot

Unarmed

The time is right, baby

If you trust me, then follow me

I wonder what secrets

are hidden in the case

It's so heavy

A little burden scares you?

I'm from Interpol.

It's my duty to tell you

Your beautiful valley is visible

So now what?

Meaning?

Why did you call me here?

For sex, no?

What utter nonsense!

I'm an Interpol officer

Don't Interpol officers have a pole?

Disgusting!

Hear this

Extras cost extra.

No whining later

Extra for

And I don-t

How wonderful!

Welcome to Corsica.

Say it

What is it? Why so sad?

You're usually so cheerful

Obviously, I know

I see!

A tunnel in myjail?

Drop it

Not here

Home is ok

Packed like sardines

Do your own thing

- I'm all yours

- Hand is God

- Sister by day, wife by night

- Wife by night?

- This bikini will slip off

- All B Grade

Yes!

I see you..

Excuse me... hi... Me parle-vous no French...

Can you help me p

ease...?

Yeah.

And how you say;

Are you free this evening?

Yes, correct.

Come here!

Hurry UP!

Come on.

Buy me a drink?

- Come on.

And how do you say

"Will you take me out this evening".

Excuse me.

Welcome to India, Sambar-vada,

Medu-vada, Pav-vada

Very, very nice. Namaste

What must I do?

Beg on the streets?

Beg for alms?

You shou

d've thought about

that before betting

Look. Can you see an expensive

restaurant nearby?

God, if only

You had made me a girl...

...

would've sold my honour

to feed this glutton

What do I do?

Are you listening, God?

You're too cool, God

Come on.

What's the plan?

- Don't know

Once we make a commitment

Don't be disheartened, Princess

Why just ting?

Fun has just begun, baby.

There's more we can do

For example

And even...

...this is allowed

Why not? Why not?

No crossing the line

So can I do this?

And this too

The line is drawing close

But we won't cross it

Sure?

I gave you my word

I gave you my heart. And all

you gave me was your word

This heart will mean nothing

in the next world, Zohra Bai

Alas!

Rules and regulations are

so different there

What do we do?

Shall we run away?

Run! Run!

Why does this always happen?

Good times pass so quickly

What if Sohni just never

returns home?

Can she stay?

A day early?

There were a few phone-calls

from the ministry in New Delhi.

You can tell me when

you want to fly out.

There is a flight tomorrow.

What time's the flight?
