Did somebody scream fire?
Why would someone scream fire, Rish?
I don't know, Shef.
Perhaps someone wants to be rescued by these strong and capable hands.
Rescue? Really, Rish?
Really, Shef!
After all these strong and capable hands have
always been by my side.
They make me... A Better Man!
Of course! Now you can handle the house, the kids, the merger ...
all by yourself, right?
So you are really the better man
and you've made that pretty clear...
There is clarity on only one thing, Shef
What's that?
That I love you.
I'm really sorry.
I shouldn't have said all that that day.
I also shouldn't have said what I said.
-But, Rish... -Shhhh...
You just do what makes you happy.
We are in this together Shef, forever.
Fire! Fire!
I'll put it out, baby, I'll put it out.
Idiot! Fire!
Fire! Fire! Shef, fire!
Why are you telling me? I only told you about it!
Yeah, so why are you trying to take credit for it?
Do something, do something!
Yoyo! Jia! Dia! Fire!
Zoru, fire! Fire! Fire!
Fire!
Jia, how much milk?
You know I'm glucose intolerant, baba.
So no milk please, just black with two sugars.
Sure.
Morning, girls.
-Good morning. -Morning.
Breakfast?
Shall I make eggs Sheffedict?
Mom, I'll make the breakfast.
You go please make up with dad.
Don't worry, Dia.
It's a small, silly fight. We're fine.
We've been seeing the live telecast of your silly fights for years.
And this...was not that.
And you know this too.
My friend Adi always says that extending fights increases stress.
And then fine lines and then crease lines.
-So you age faster. -What?
Yes. That's why I explained to Rocky that no matter who is at fault
he shouldn't delay in apologising to me.
And he agreed?
Uh yeah, my age before his ego, mom.
Otherwise he can search for another girlfriend
who obviously can't be as fantastic as I am.
You know Rish should be a little more like Rocky.
I was born in the wrong generation, man!
Mom, focus.
Okay.
I think I know what you need to do.
What?
It's a bit empty.
It's different but I like it.
This is the minimalist look, Shef.
Now there is more space in this room for your feelings
your thoughts and emotions.
Anyway, Dia and Jia are both right.
I'm glad you're here because stress does age you faster.
That means I will only have to do something, as usual.
You and Rishabh need to start a healthy dialogue.
Don't be afraid to make the first move, Shefali.
I've made this mistake once in college, 'the first move.'
I'm still paying for it. No more.
Let's analyse Rishabh's behaviour from Rishabh's perspective.
You said the previous year was very tough on him...
What did you mean by that?
Well unfortunately Rish's dad passed away last year.
And he was very stressed.
The entire business's responsibility came on him.
And anyway, in the matter of finances and expenses he is...
What's the word?
Thrifty?
That he is. But
Paranoid! He's become paranoid.
And that's why he's become obsessed with his upcoming merger.
A parent's passing can trigger such an emotion.
-I remember... -Yes, yes, but Doc
it's been like a year now. Everybody has moved on
including mom.
Rishabh's mom?
So what was that?
Shefali, this room is our rectangle of trust.
Fine.
Mom has a boyfriend.
And Rishabh doesn't know about it?
Like he doesn't know that you have started solo sessions.
Well I am happy for her.
Having a companion at this age is very important.
I'm sorry. I'm not here to talk about my mother-in-law.
Can we please focus on me?
Of course. But be patient with him, Shefali.
Sometimes it's very difficult.
In those moments take deep breaths.
I'm sure Rishabh must also be thinking about
how to solve this problem.
No, no, ma no.
Rishu, Rishu son, please hear me out.
I don't want to listen to anything, mom.
After all, for how long can you live alone?
-But, son... -No buts.
Guys, I have an announcement to make.
From today onwards, grandma will be living with all of us.
-What? -Yay!
Ma, just think dad also must be so happy.
Shef, what happened?
Why are you breathing like that? All okay?
Not okay. What are you doing?
I'm trying, Shef, I'm trying.
Grandma will feel good if she lives with us.
The kids will also be managed and finally the both of us
will be able to focus on our work. Everyone is happy.
How insensitive are you! What is she? A nanny?
Not a nanny. She's a grandma.
And if grandma lives with her grandchildren
then she will be so happy that her loneliness will go away.
But how is she alone?
What do you mean?
I mean... she has her prayer meetings, her friends, yoga
Plants! Plants, I have my plants.
-She has plants. -Which need water
and sun...sunlight everyday.
Who will give it, Rishu?
Besides where will grandma sleep? There's no place.
In Yoyo's room.
What?
Hey, Yoyo, it's only a matter of a few months.
After that... at least
Dia will go to college.
Very funny, dad. I'm not sharing my room
with this environmental devotee.
AC won't be on.
If the AC won't be on, I'll sweat and my make up will get spoilt.
You sleep with your make up on at night?
It's called beauty sleep for a reason, mom.
My followers love my bedtime look.
Listen, I already have one tubelight in my room.
I don't need another one.
Very good, Dia di. We all must save electricity.
Somebody save me.
Okay okay, relax everybody.
Yoyo will sleep with us like he used to when he was younger.
Oh, in between us. How wonderful!
Rishu, Rishu, everyone is getting troubled. I'll go back.
Grandma, you can have my room.
I'll sleep on the couch.
See! Learn from him.
Shef, now you're not angry, right?
Everything has been solved.
I'm not angry, Rish, I'm just a little disappointed.
We could have sorted this matter with a healthy dialogue also but no
you took the decision by yourself.
I don't know why I expect so much out of you!
[Door opens]
Shef... Shefali
How did you recognise me?
I recognised you 18 years ago.
But why are you roaming in your own house like a thief?
You haven't let this house belong to me!
Came here with all your baggage!
It's not like I wanted to come. Rishu forced me.
You should have given him two slaps and told him to be quiet
like you used to do in his childhood!
I really wanted to do that, dear.
But then I thought that if I accept what he says
Perhaps, at the right time, he may also accept Roshan as
Roshan....what?
Accept him.
He isn't able to accept that his wife can also have her own dreams
how is he going to accept Roshan uncle?
High hopes, mom.
Oh I see! So this is the problem between the both of you.
I see, I see, I see.
That means Rishu has brought me here to look after the house
and not to lessen my loneliness.
Yes. Your life is now officially Baghbaan.
Enjoy your long-distance relationship... Sonu.
Deep breathing is of no use, Doc.
Can you even believe what Rish did!
I understand. But tell me one thing, with Mummyji there
hasn't your burden lessened even a little bit?
I mean it has a little.
The kids don't survive only on pizzas and burgers now.
But there's something wrong.
Is it a mother's job only to make her children's life easier
at the expense of her own dreams?
Wow!
What happened?
I had never thought that I would think
about my mother-in-law with such thoughtfulness
sensitivity and understanding.
Perks of growing up and being a parent yourself I guess.
Maybe.
Growing up reminds me
it was your birthday three days ago, wasn't it?
How did it go?
You don't want to know.
Dad, how many blueberries will you add?
17 for 'Happy Birthday Shef'
and 17 for the exclamation mark.
Here, Rishu, take the offering.
And listen I read your horoscope
today's day is extremely inauspicious for you.
Mom, how can today's day be inauspicious?
-Today is Shef's birth... -Good morning.
-Hi! -Hello hello!
Happy happy birthday!
-Happy birthday. -Thank you.
Here. Be happy, always be happy.
Thank you.
Where's my hug?
-Happy birthday. -Thank you.
-Where is Jia? -She's sleeping.
At this time?
-She running a temperature. -And headache too.
-How much is her temperature? -99.
[Phone ringing]
Hey, one sec. Hello.
Yes.
Yes, of course. I'll be there.
-Yes! Yes! Yes! -What what?
The call was from Bandra Daily and they want to do a
special feature on Shef the Chef's channel.
You know what that means?
-More followers. -Wow mom, that's great!
Okay guys, listen. Great idea, okay!
Let the interview finish, and then after that's we'll all go to Eastern Platters for dinner
because the missus likes hummus.
Yes, the missus does like hummus.
-But, Rish. -Yeah.
Won't you wish me?
Oh yeah, I'm so sorry. Shef, have the best interview ever.
-I meant, my birthday. -Hey...
One second, Shef.
One second, I'll be back, baby.
Listen. Will it be okay if I skipped the dinner?
More than okay. But why?
You guys bond. I think I'll make my own plans.
Please do. I'll be most happy.
Yeah, I know that you'll be most happy.
Guys, the auditors of Haruto Hiruto, Gupta and Sons
who were supposed to come for dinner the day after tomorrow, aren't coming now.
Oh, Rish, I hope everything is okay.
Your deal hasn't gotten cancelled, has it?
I knew that today is going to be extremely inauspicious for you.
No deal is getting cancelled, man. Please.
Basically they are going to Nagpur the day after tomorrow
to audit another ball bearing company.
So now they aren't coming the day after tomorrow for dinner
Shef, they're coming today.
What? Rish?
So what happened with your interview?
I had to postpone it, Doc.
Good!
I mean...in such a situation, one of you
has to show maturity by adjusting.
Well done, Shefali.
You really are making good progress.
But, Doc, when will Rish progress?
My lead is just too much.
All in good time Shefali, all in good time.
Set them out right.
What are you doing?
I am washing the asparagus along with my desires.
Okay, Shef baby, I'm really sorry but I forgot to tell you that
Mr. Gupta is like super allergic to asparagus.
His secretary had called.
What's this?
A list, Rish.
If the things mentioned in the list don't reach home within an hour
then your dream of feeding Gupta and Sons an amazing
Japanese dinner prepared by Shef the Chef
will become like my dreams...unfulfilled.
Don't worry. I've got this, all right?
Mom, I'll be back.
-Dad? -Yes, Diu.
You had promised that you'll show genuine effort towards mom.
Diu, I am doing it. I am trying.
I got up early in the morning, made pancakes
decorated them with 34 blueberries, even planned a dinner.
Now what can I do if Gupta and Sons came in between?
But dad, is the auditors' dinner more important than mom's birthday?
Of course, Diu!
Diu, this merger is everything for our family, okay?
If it's successful then we can celebrate mom's birthday everyday.
Man, Gucci's winter, summer, fall
monsoon... whatever collections are there, I'll buy them all and give them to Shef.
Do you know how happy she'll be?
Do you know how beautiful she'll look?
55 minutes, Rish.
I got to go. I got to go, I love you. I love you all. Bye!
Shit!
This day is only inauspicious.
-Hi, uncle! -Uncle?
Who did you call uncle?
You. I mean I can't call you dad, can I?
What brings you here?
Jiakins is unwell so I just thought I'll come and
spend some time with her and cheer her up.
-How sweet. -Yes.
-Do you have a car? -Yes.
You know what will really cheer Jia up?
I'm hoping it's me but
since she has fever so she gets a little moody so...
I'm open to suggestions, whatever you say.
Son, I have a long list of suggestions.
Right now you come with me. Come with me, come with me.
-The car... -Where is the car? Here?
I had parked it there.
Hurry, hurry. Shef's food has to be ready by 7 o' clock.
Shef's food? And Jia's mood?
What happened to Jia's mood?
Oh yes, yes! Don't worry
Jia's mood will become all right with Shef's food.
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up! Come on.
Okay, so what we can do is, we'll split the list, right?
There is only one list.
Now there are two.
Wow! Well done! Welcome to the family, welcome to the family.
Hurry up. Okay, bye.
I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry uncle.
No worries, son, no worries, no worries.
Oh, thank you. Uncle, huh?
In any case, uncles are like fathers only.
What's there to apologise to a father about?
I call almost every elderly man uncle.
Now all elderly men can't be my father, can they?
Uncle
[Phone ringing]
It's upside down.
Thank you.
I'll answer it later.
Okay, hi. The list is almost done.
-Hi!
By the way, tell me along with Japanese food
there should be some Saké also, right?
Yes, get some Saké
Listen, take the Indian one...it'll be cheaper, okay?
-Go, go, go quickly, do it quickly! -Okay, bye.
The boy has refined taste.
Yeah. So does my Jia.
It's really lovely actually when the people you love are with refined partners.
Yeah, well said.
Anyway sir, here is your Shilajit.
Oh, thank you. Thank you very much.
These days, this is what helps to keep... rhythm in life.
Right.
See you.
Who parks like this, Rocky?
I had parked it properly.
I wonder who parked it like this.
I knew it. I knew you were too good to be true.
Don't say that.
[Phone ringing]
-Hi, Shef. -Hi, Jia.
-Where are you? -Where are you?
-Supermarket. -Supermarket.
The clock is ticking, Rish.
What are you doing there?
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.
What? Rocky, put the phone on speaker right now.
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Dad, Rocky was coming to meet me but you took him away
-for your work. -Nice.
I mean it was all right till you ruined mom's birthday plans
but how can you be so insensitive to me
when I am running temperature of 99, dad?
And how could you still not have wished me, Rish?
Okay okay, guys, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Jia.
-I'm sorry, Rocky. -It's okay.
I'm so sorry, Shef. Baby, here goes...
-Happy birthday to you -One minute
happy birthday to you
happy birthday, dear Shef.
Happy birthday to you.
Okay, guys, now can we focus on the dinner please?
-Hello! -15 minutes, Rish.
And 14 for you, Rocky.
The phone got cut.
-Need some help? -Yes.
Come on.
Hey, who will bring your car? Stay, stay.
Come, come uncle.
Please...
Oh, thank you.
You have a nice place.
Thank you so much.
-Let me get that. -Hey, no no, it's okay, it's okay.
-You're a godsend, you know. -Oh, not at all. Come on.
Had I not been there you would have taken a taxi.
I wouldn't get it. It's one of those days.
-Hi! -Oh, hi!
-You must be Shef? -Yes.
Happy birthday.
Thank you. How did you know?
Whose ring tone is that?
It's mine.
Then why don't you answer?
I told him the same in the car but he cut her call.
What if it was an emergency?
Since I was driving the car, I thought...
You know it's so strange, uncle
my papa would tell his Sonu the same thing
but of course she wouldn't listen.
Uncle, this is my mom.
How do you do?
Hi!
It's such a pleasure.
Ditto.
Rish, it's my birthday you haven't got chocolates or flowers...
Now help me with the bags. Come, come, come, follow me.
There is something known as surprise also.
No, we're good.
What brings you here? Where did you meet Rishu?
I saw him in the supermarket.
I recognised him from the photographs kept in your house.
Aadhe Ma truly blesses those who are in true love.
I guess.
-Now leave, please. -Okay.
Or else the thing will get leaked.
Tea?
No, I'll...I'll take your leave.
Even I'll make a move, Rishu.
-Where? -For the prayer meeting.
Or else God will be angry.
Okay, mom, but please return on time.
There's a dinner today.
-I'll show you out. -Yeah.
Thank you, thank you uncle.
Thanks, thanks.
Take your bag.
[Door opens]
Oh!
Wow!
Oh wow! They're so pretty.
Yeah! [Door closes]
I got flowers.
Happy birthday, Shef. May your year be filled with love
laughter and wonderful surprises. Love Rishabh.
You got me flowers.
Thank you for the flowers.
Happy birthday.
Wow, Shef!
You look beautiful!
I know.
[Doorbell rings]
Open the door.
Yes.
[Door opens]
Hello. How are you, sir?
This is Mr. Bharat Gupta. This is my wife.
Hi. Shefali.
-Akhil. His son. -Hi!
-Hi!
-Shefali. -Oh hi!
I'm sorry I didn't get your name.
Rishabh. Rishabh Jain.
-Our financial consultant -Rishabh.
-Rishabh Jain?
-Hi, Shef. -Hi!
May I say green is still your colour?
Thank you.
Do you guys know each other?
Of course. We were together in college.
Yes.
Got the flowers?
I did. Thank you so much.
So you didn't send the flowers?
No.
And now even Shefali knows this.
And now she is even angrier with me.
[Phone ringing]
One sec, Doc.
Hello. Yes, Dia.
I'm at Dr. Gulfam's.
Hurry up and talk. You know he charges by the hour.
Yeah.
Okay, okay, I'll call you later about this. Okay bye.
Dia knows that you've started the sessions again, without Shef?
Doc, it was her idea only
but apart from her, no one else knows, so please...
Don't worry, Rishabh.
This room is our rectangle of trust.
Right.
Anyway, you were telling me about the dinner. What happened then?
Actually Doc, it's not just about the flowers.
Rishabh Jain turns out to be Shefali's ex-boyfriend.
-Oh! -Yeah! Exactly. Oh!
If this merger is going to be successful, then Rishabh Jain
should love me. But unfortunately, he loved my wife.
And quite frankly, Doc, I think he still does.
Really?
