Yeah. Tell me.
So, the candles are lit.
Hmm.
The smell of jasmine has spread everywhere.
And I am really tired. So, I am in a hot tub.
Are you in a spa or something?
No, Mickey. I am at home.
All alone.
Uh, one minute.
Tanu, we don't even have a bucket big enough for you to sit in it
let alone a bathtub. So, how will it work?
Just imagine, Mickey.
Okay. So, we are doing that. Imagine. Right.
Go on with the story.
Story?
Are you expecting a story, Mickey?
I mean get ahead with the situation. Don't break the flow.
So, I am in the hot tub.
-And the water is so nice. -Tanu, one minute. I am getting a call.
-Don't pick it up. -It's mom.
Mikesh, I don't want to imagine anyone's parents right now. What are you doing?
Okay.
So, I am in the hot tub.
-And... -One minute.
Yes, mom. We are doing a roleplay.
Are you fine?
I am absolutely fine. I will call you later. Okay. Bye.
Yeah. Please continue.
Hello?
-Tanu? -Mikesh.
How could you... And why did you tell mom what we are doing?
Mom won't understand what roleplay means.
Do you know your parents never did a roleplay?
My parents? Tanu, no one drags the matter at my place. They talk directly.
-Oh, how nice. So, it's like that, huh? -No.
-I won't get insulted anymore. -Hey.
Mickey, it's our anniversary.
So, I thought I'll do something special but now, you forget it.
Listen to me at least. You get too carried away.
Let's try one more time, please.
One last time.
Hmm. This is nice.
Why were you in the bathtub when we have this?
I am a champion in the dice game.
Huh. I scored more than you.
Um, rub chocolate on your partner's chest and lick it.
Oh.
But we don't have chocolate right now.
-Can I use kulfi instead? -I love kulfi.
But my chest is hairy. The kulfi will become falooda.
-Okay, fine. Then do that to me... -No, you will catch a cold.
Then your nose will start running.
Let me take the kulfi out and keep it in a vessel.
It will melt completely and then we can use it to play.
Till then we can keep rolling the dice.
We will note down the activities we get.
Then we can do all of them at once.
But, Mickey, it will be so weird.
We are writing down the activities but aren't doing anything.
Tanu.
I have a better idea.
Yes.
Tanu, I won phenomenally.
I never won such a close game before.
Just like no one can score 100 out of 100 in Hindi,
I never score one in Ludo.
That was amazing.
I had a lot of fun.
Oh, man.
Amazing.
What a night.
-Mickey. -Hmm.
So, that board game.
Do you want to do what was written there?
No. Let's not do all that right now.
Dude, the high of winning,
we won't be able to beat that.
I am feeling good.
But I am not feeling good, Mickey.
Tanu, that's because you lost.
That's why you are feeling good.
We will play again tomorrow.
Let's hope that you win.
Then you will feel good.
Happy anniversary.
Same to you.
Good morning, Suresh.
Good morning, madam.
Cappuccino for you.
-And Muufin. -Muffin?
Happy anniversary, Tanya madam.
-Mikesh? -Have it.
-I will have it. -Please have it.
I will have it.
Madam, please pick it up.
Please.
There is a hint in this chit
about Mikesh's next gift for you. Please have a look.
Please read it. How will you know otherwise?
It has a hint as well.
Please read it or...
Hey. There is a hint there as well. What is this?
You found everything on your own.
I don't need any hints to know where Mikesh will hide the gifts.
So, shall I leave?
Thank you, Suresh.
Guys, also, there is news. Shraddha is going to Germany.
You did it, Shraddha! Congratulations!
Hey, wait a minute.
Please buy a cake for the kids.
It's my anniversary today.
I know, sir. You have been saying it for the past three days.
I hope you have packed okra in the tiffin.
Yes, sir. You have been saying that as well for the past three days.
-Mikesh. -Hey, once again?
It's not in our hands after getting married.
No. It's good news.
Today is an auspicious day. It's my anniversary.
-Really? Congratulations, sir. -Have sweets.
-Yes. Thank you. -Thank you.
Sudarshan, hold your horses.
You have got out of control. Restrain yourself.
-Let's go. -Mikesh.
-Yes. -Did you not book it today?
Did I not book it?
Then how did you come?
Well, that's okay. You can pay cash today.
Okay. I will pay in cash.
One second.
I will see to that. I will call you back.
What's up, gorgeous? Hello?
Have a look at the WearHive presentation.
We are presenting that together post-lunch.
And yeah. I hate you.
-Tanya, can we talk? -Nope.
Tanya, at least listen to me.
Babe, I have such a sentimental reason for not telling you.
You will feel bad about it.
Really?
Please tell me.
Please tell me what's the reason that you are suddenly going to Germany
and I am getting to know about it from the office group.
It's not sudden.
Arjun and I have been discussing this for the past two years.
So...
Shraddha, why are you telling me now?
You could have gone to Germany and posted me a letter.
Tanya, we thought we will first have a child
and then move there.
But nothing happened.
There was a delay as well.
Out of nowhere, they offered me the role in Germany.
I couldn't say no.
Don't give me that look.
What look?
As if you never thought about going abroad. Right?
No. I like it here.
You know, if an international company had seen your hard work,
they would have made you the VP.
Yeah. Okay.
But Mikesh and I are happy here.
Arjun and I don't see a future here.
And think about it. Your parents and mine also migrated, right?
From a small town to a big city.
The only difference is that they couldn't think past a big city in India.
You and I are global citizens.
We can fly.
And why am I telling you this?
Mikesh stayed abroad.
Don't you all discuss such things?
Think about it, babe!
And don't make me feel guilty about it.
You should feel guilty about not going.
Before I forget this, happy anniversary, baby.
Yeah. Even if you do forget, Mikesh will remind you.
He is so cute.
He puts so much effort to make you feel special.
When Mikesh does all this,
I feel the pressure of how I should reciprocate instead of feeling special.
Well, come on, Ms. Germany.
-Some Indians are waiting for you in the conference room. -Let's go.
In the meantime, I...
Sorry. I have to take this.
Hey, Tanu, what are you doing?
Mickey, I am in a meeting.
I am downstairs. Come down quickly.
What part of I am in a meeting you don't understand, Mickey?
Just tell them Mikesh is here. It's a surprise.
Come! I am waiting.
Oh God. I will take an hour.
An hour?
What will I do here for an hour?
Listen. I have some work. Please do that for me.
I'm not benefiting enough from being friends
with my father-in-law as much as him.
Sir, I will charge extra for this.
Take your glasses off. We could have fallen out of the window.
He needs extra money.
He got married twice but he can't carry the gas cylinder.
Mikesh, what was the need for this?
We were going to go out for eating anyway.
By the way, happy anniversary.
This might burst. Just wait for two minutes.
Hello? Yes?
Maroon? No. It's not mine.
It's parked in the no-parking zone? Get it towed.
Hey, father, what is this...
-Hello, mom? -Miku, happy anniversary.
Yes. Thank you!
Where are you? I have been calling you since morning but you weren't answering.
Miku, I was sleeping. You called me six times.
You live alone. I get worried.
Your dad left you behind to keep an eye on me, right?
Where is Tanu?
I am going to meet her.
Make me talk to her later. Okay? Enjoy.
Okay.
I have been enjoying since morning.
Sir, it took three hours to get the gas cylinder delivered.
-Only five more hours are left. -Yes. I know.
Take me to the office now.
How did you like my surprises?
Mickey, I am the only one wearing formal here.
Women look so hot wearing formal.
Just come to my office and you will see everyone...
Sorry. Waiter.
Go for it.
-Kairos. -What?
-Kairos. -Kairos.
Don't worry. It's a tradition here.
You can break the plates after you finish eating.
It's a Greek tradition.
-Oh. -Have some sips of this water.
What rubbish.
Just kidding.
Kairos.
Okay. Cheers.
Kairos, everyone.
Go for it.
Hey, that's Pranav.
Kairos!
Can he afford to break plates at such an expensive restaurant?
Pranav? Oh, your roommate from college?
Why can't he afford it?
One has to work and work hard after college to be able to afford anything.
He said that he will have a startup after college and took 80K from me.
So, he took money from you and never returned it?
Of course not.
Whenever I asked for the money back, he told me
how I felt rich while giving him the money
is what really counts and he vanished.
Are both of you still holding grudges?
Tanu, do I look like the person who can hold a grudge against anyone?
But this guy just ghosted me.
-Cheers. -Cheers.
I stalked him so much on social media so that I could block him.
But I couldn't find him.
Then I dropped him a message saying that I am blocking him.
Even the message didn't get delivered.
Mickey, he blocked you.
Could be.
Imagine.
We used to share a bunk bed and a bathroom.
He also used my trimmer.
It has been so many years after that.
Okay. Well, he must be doing good now. And that's why he is here.
He must be doing good it seems.
He must be partying by borrowing money from someone.
You are right, bro. I borrowed money.
And I am partying with that money.
But this time, I didn't fool a friend.
I played big this time.
VC.
Our gaming startup turned out to be great, bro.
Good for you.
-Hi. Tanya. -Pranav.
Are you partying with the investment money?
No, bro. The startup is generating good revenue for the past three years.
Actually, we are opening the first branch overseas in Canada.
-So, we are celebrating that. -Oh, nice.
-Yeah. -You should have celebrated in Canada then.
So, Pranav, how many branches are there in India?
There is only one branch in India now.
And the second one is directly in Canada.
Boss, you should become national first before becoming multi-national.
Why are you still so angry, bro?
So, why an overseas branch?
Actually, the thing is that
I was losing the best of my techies to foreign lands.
Not foreign companies but foreign lands.
Once people have significant growth in India,
the next obvious option is to go abroad.
And maybe that's not wrong either.
So, this Canada branch is that option for my employees
to not leave my company. That's that.
-Nice. -Brother.
You should spread knowledge among your guys over there.
It's our anniversary today. Why are you showcasing your charm here?
-Mickey. -Oh, I am so sorry.
-Happy anniversary, guys. -Yeah.
-Thank you. -Happy anniversary.
Anyway, my crew is also here. I shall take your leave.
But we should plan a gathering soon.
We should meet. Okay? See you.
See you.
There is no crew and all. He is bluffing.
-So, what's up? -Come on.
Mickey, there is a crew.
Waiter, get the soup.
-Cheers. -Cheers.
-Kairos. -Kairos.
The food here is not all that great.
I think they are breaking plates out of anger.
Mickey.
Shraddha is moving to Germany.
I know. I was there in the group chat.
I even congratulated her.
Hmm. I saw that.
Then?
You will be alone in the office now.
You don't even have any friends.
Don't you think even we should consider it?
About?
About moving abroad.
-Kairos. -Kairos.
They broke the wrong thing this time.
I don't think that's the tradition.
Tanu, we look so hot, right?
Mickey, Pranav is a nice guy.
What?
You have horrible taste in men, Tanu.
-Mickey. -Hmm.
I was serious then.
What are you talking about?
Even boys won't take him seriously in college let alone girls.
I am not talking about that.
About us moving abroad.
I don't think we can live our dream life here, Mickey.
But I am living my dream life here.
I mean everything is fine.
Why do people study here and go abroad to earn money?
You did the same thing.
But I earned money there and came back, right?
Mickey, I am serious.
But I am having a lot of fun here. I mean just look at us.
The number of surprises I am giving you, even the hottest women don't get that.
Tanu, you become very ungrateful sometimes.
Surprises?
For me?
Wake up at 7 am from Monday to Friday.
Get ready, have breakfast and run to work.
The same cab gets booked at least thrice a week.
And then I come across the same beggar every day in the same car
at the same traffic because of the same signal.
And he keeps change these days because if I tell him that I don't have change,
he will give it to me and take money from me.
And then I go to the office and waste my entire day with mediocre people. Why?
Because all the smart people are settled abroad.
And eat the same food after coming back home.
Mickey, even the days are decided when we will have
ginger tea and regular tea respectively.
Over the weekend, if we watch your favourite, action movie, on Saturday,
then we will order my favourite, Mughlai cuisine.
And if we watch my favourite, comedy movie, on Sunday,
then we will order your favourite, Chinese cuisine.
Our life is so predictable that I knew you will wear a black tuxedo today
and take me out on a surprise dinner.
Surprised?
Tanu, you sometimes attack me with AK-47s.
Okay.
Let's do this.
Let's roll a dice before ordering food the next time.
You want to use the dice, right?
You have been carrying it around at home since yesterday.
That's fair now.
-Done. -Mister, stop the car.
Why are you getting him involved in this?
Stop the car!
Hey, where are you going?
Tan...
Tanu.
Hey, listen to me.
Mickey, don't follow me.
And exit my office group right now.
-Where are you going in an auto? -Let's go.
I paid a lot of money for this car.
Sir.
One and a half hours are still remaining.
Let me pour water.
That's right.
To the East.
To the West.
Are you done?
-Yes. -Shall we drink now?
You were dipping your fingers inside before drinking.
Come on. Cheers.
Everyone does the same thing.
Those we love the most love make us naked.
Yes. That's true.
I used to pull my dad's lungi as a kid.
-Just stripping someone off their clothes doesn't make you naked. -Really?
Someone says such things to you publicly that
you feel naked even while wearing a suit.
Oh my God.
Did Tanya leave again?
She didn't leave. She came to our place with a beer.
-How many beers were there? -Bloody six.
Can Tanya drink so many beers?
What happened actually?
Tanu wants to settle abroad to progress.
And you don't want to go abroad?
All of you are here. My job is here.
My home is here. Why would I go abroad?
Go wherever you all want.
But why did she come to my place?
You are her dad. So, she will come to your place, right?
She won't obviously go to his place.
Yes. Because all that a 60-year-old man is is a bloody dad.
As if I can't have a plan at all.
Pass me the alcohol.
-Dad, is everything all right? -Shit is all right.
Here you go, uncle.
What happened? Did you fight with aunt again?
Why do you think that I fought with my wife?
Do I look like a man who fights with his wife every day?
Hey, listen, Mr. Puroshottam.
I am a very very understanding husband.
No. Once you called me Amrish Puri.
But actually, I am Alok Nath coming straight out of the mid path.
I am a very very understanding person.
If you take me to a psychiatrist, he'll tell you that I am too understanding.
Yes. In fact, too understanding.
Dad, why are you taking this poor guy's class in English?
Hey, he will understand, Mikesh.
What has happened?
I can't have anything with Ila.
-What can't you have, uncle? -Hey.
Uncle can still manage to do it?
-What did you say? -Hey.
-What did you say? -Hey, uncle.
What did you say?
They will throw me out of the society.
-What are you doing? -Uncle.
-Let's go upstairs. -Let's go.
Hide it under your shirt.
What can I do in Mikesh and your disagreement?
Call it a fight, not a disagreement.
And secondly, take my side.
But I don't know the whole story. Mikesh could be right.
-Are you on his side or mine? -Your side.
Then just be a good mom, aunt, and bitch about Mikesh with me.
-Do you know what dad and Mikesh must be doing now? -What?
They must be bitching about me nicely.
He must be pointing out my flaws.
Why?
Because I am also married now. Even we have things going on.
See, the fact of the matter is I love him.
And the reasons for which I love him, he still has them.
Then it's all right. And that which is not, it will be in time.
But, Tanu, you have to think about it.
Why you fell in love with Mikesh in the first place.
If that reason is still alive,
then you will take all the fights as disagreements.
You have become boring.
Dad has made you boring like himself.
-Nice. Very nice. -But I am drinking.
I am cool.
Uncle, I can understand.
I can understand how small a man feels without sex.
I would have done it with you every day had I been a girl.
-Hey. -What is he saying?
Mikesh.
-Look. -What are you saying?
You know what I think, Mikesh?
Tanya is bored.
Either it's her job or Mumbai. Or in general, with you.
-Me? -Yeah. You.
Uncle, that's not possible.
Mikesh can make anyone laugh anywhere with his jokes.
-Mikesh, please tell him a joke. -No.
Tanya is bored.
She is trying to do something with her boredom and you are refusing her.
That is what angers her with you.
Mikesh.
Those times are gone when men used to command.
And women used to cover their veils and run inside immediately.
Do you know how men resolve conflict these days?
By using the most important
weapon of conflict resolution.
What?
Agreement. Just say yes.
Conflict resolution is like war.
The enemy is waiting for your bombs, guns and ammunition.
What could be the most surprising thing for them?
-What? -Surrender.
The enemy will be on their back foot.
They won't understand what's going on and what's happening.
What's more surprising than your bombs, guns and ammunition
is your agreement.
Because that is what the modern man is today.
Someone who agrees with the woman.
And you became macho and refused her.
But a macho is a fucker today.
Don't be a fucker.
Be a man.
Be a man and never say no.
Mikesh, be a man and never say no.
Don't be a fucker.
Be a man and never say no.
Yes.
A man can never say no.
I even refused her after playing ludo in the night.
Sorry.
I bumped into you by mistake.
Stand straight.
Mickey has gone out.
He gave me this list.
He said all the activities that are written on it,
I have to use a proxy for him. Please have a look.
Where has Mickey gone?
He has gone quite far.
I mean he will take a very long time to return.
He won't be able to make it tonight.
Look, the third one can be done in the lift.
Shut up.
Tell me. Your place or my lift?
-Come. -You put an end to my performance so soon.
Tanu, we won't go to the bedroom.
Everything is going to be wild.
The AC in the bedroom makes me sleep.
Mikesh, I have to clean the space afterwards.
Yes. We will do that later.
Yes. So...
Shouldn't I be on the table?
Don't be a sexist, Tanu.
Where is it written that the girl can only sit on the table?
Mickey, this table is very expensive. Please.
Okay. You should sit on it practically because of the angle.
-Let me take off the jacket. -I should be the one to take it off.
Tanu, you are doing everything on your own.
Now, just rip it apart. Tear it.
Can you stop talking?
Mickey, we will try to settle abroad, right?
A real man never says no, Tanu.
What?
My answer is yes.
Yes.
What kind of books are you reading these days?
Tanu.
Let me take off the belt.
-How do they take it off? I don't know. -Mikesh.
There is someone at the door. Come.
They will keep outside and leave.
Mom?
-Miku. -Sudarshan?
Tanya madam, I requested her to let me carry her bag.
But she didn't listen to me.
She didn't take me to be the guard without the uniform.
I thought I'd give you two a surprise.
But are you playing fancy dress on your anniversary?
You are wearing his uniform?
Huh?
-Let me get your bags. -Yes.
