Karan, open the door.
Karan!
Open the damn door!
Did the bell ring?
Do you lose your hearing when it's convenient for you?
Who is it this early in the morning?
Stop raising your finger so much. Are you an umpire?
-Uncle? -Yes!
Karan!
-How are you uncle? -I am good, how are you?
-Take my blessings! -Sorry, sorry, sorry.
Hey, were you taking a dump?
-No. -Just kidding!
Why did you take so long to open the door?
Who is it?
Nithya?
Get my luggage. Idiot.
It's me, child.
It's me.
Nithya my child.
Forgive me, I don't recognize you.
If you can't recognize me then
what is the point of me staying here? I am leaving.
No, no...
that's not what I...
I am just kidding, child.
Myself...
Mangaldas.
And your dear husband...
his father and I are childhood friends.
We used to play together when we were young.
You could say that we are pretty much like family.
-Namaste. -Bless you, child.
-How are you? -I am good.
And... What brings you here all of a sudden?
Yes, it is quite sudden.
The thing is... wait a minute.
I have a childhood friend who lives in Kerala.
And he has been inviting me to visit for a long time.
This time, when I had the opportunity, I did visit him...
and on my way back the train broke down in Bangalore.
So, didn't the Railway make other arrangements for you?
They did... There was another train leaving in a little while.
But... I missed it.
How?
I was occupied with helping a poor man.
Wow uncle!
Karan, you should learn from him.
I already taught him!
I taught you, didn't I?
But, the thing is...
Nobody has ever been able to beat me while playing cards.
Not even him.
Cards?
Yes, cards.
See, when I was standing on the platform waiting for the train.
I saw a few people playing cards on the side.
And I couldn't help but notice,
that one man kept losing over and over again.
My heart was touched.
And so, I started a partnership with him.
And in ten rounds I covered all of his losses and gave him the money.
-Wow. -Exactly!
And your train?
The train? I think...
We were in the middle of third or fourth round...
that was when it left.
It left.
And that was when I remembered Karan.
His father told me that he lives here and bought a new house.
And that is it! That is how I came here all of a sudden.
That was a good idea! I am very happy you're here.
Of course you are happy, I knew you would be.
-Are you okay? -Yes, I am fine.
My child... Nithya... are you not happy?
No... I mean, yes... I am happy too.
You are happy, right? That's great!
So, what places did you visit?
I went to Kumar Kumbh. It's a great place.
And then... water on the back?
-Water... on the back? -Nalanda.
The place where people go boating!
-Backwaters. -I know.
And after that...
I just explored the greenery.
Oh... so you must have gone to Munnar or Allepey?
I went to an even better place.
I told you, didn't I?
My friend owns an opium field.
So I put down a bed in the middle of the field
and kept trying to get the stars to come down.
You kept trying to what? I don't understand...
And then the next day
I went shopping... but I couldn't understand anything.
See, I was never good at that subject.
My wife is the one who is good at that.
Uncle, you're here but Shani aunty isn't? Where is she?
Shani (Saturn) aunty and Mangal (Mars) uncle...
Your aunt...
is dead.
What?
When?
You didn't even tell me!
I am so sorry.
I was just kidding!
She won't die so soon.
She will die only after I do.
And now you and I can have fun like we used to.
Exactly like we used to! You're right!
I have been living with your aunt for 30 years now.
I have forgotten what the bachelor life looks like.
There is a problem uncle.
The extra room is not good enough to live in.
There is no bed. The bathroom doesn't have a shower.
The windows don't have curtains and there is no AC either.
There is no AC or curtains?
I see.
The room is empty.
That's just great...
It's great! This is great Nithya!
Everyone wants this these days. The open plan that everyone loves.
Even if you do have curtains you should get rid of them.
-Can't you hear the bell? Open it. -Yes, sorry, sorry.
How are you?
Karan, who is this?
This is Mr. and Mrs. Sharma, our neigbours.
And this F1 car that is racing around is their grandson, Vidyasagar.
Well, you should not open the door for your neighbours.
Once they enter your house they never leave.
Just kidding!
-But are you a kid? -Looks like it.
Oh right...
You shouldn't keep guests waiting at the door.
-Invite them inside. -Yes.
No, I just wanted to inform you
that I am going to my sister's place with Vidyasagar for a few weeks.
So I was wondering if you could keep an eye on him?
You're very worried about me!
By the way, Karan... What is this gentleman's name?
This is my uncle. Mangal uncle.
It looks like he is from Mars!
-How did you know? -The way you speak gave it away!
How long will you be staying here?
I was planning on staying for a day.
Just a day?
But now I will stay for two weeks.
That's good, the kids will have some company.
-I will be entertained too. -Let's go now.
Hey! Vidya!
-Oh boy! Time to leave. -Okay, okay, okay.
-Vidya! -Your neigbours were scared.
Karan, this massager is great.
Did you get this as your dowry?
This too?
Oh right... Laxmi!
-Laxmi, my child. -Yes uncle?
Listen... get me some popcorn.
Eating popcorn while watching a movie is a lot of fun.
Popcorn?
We ran out of popcorn.
It's fine child. Why don't you make some french fries instead?
-Do you eat french fries, uncle? -Yes, of course.
No.
I don't eat french fries.
Listen, go down and buy some popcorn.
-Understand? Go ahead. -Yes.
Go ahead, child.
-What happened? -I have no clue!
What is this Mr. Sharma?
Why do you keep calling me uncle?
Just because I am watching an old film with you
that doesn't mean you can call me uncle.
-Aren't you his uncle? -I am a young man.
What does that mean? Are you his uncle or not?
-I am his uncle... -Then why would you say that?
-I don't know about you. -What did I do wrong?
-You are old man. -Is calling you uncle a crime?
-You are old man. -What is my age? Tell me?
-I am young man. -I am leaving.
-I thought you were free. -I was free!
-I was free! Now I am not! -Okay then.
Uncle wait. Uncle please!
He is our neighbour, why are you behaving like this?
I did behave this way...
on purpose.
That guy is such a bore.
I don't want to.
Who snores like this?
Like someone trying to start a faulty tractor.
This?
This sounds like a lullaby to me.
When I was a child, until I heard uncle snoring...
I couldn't fall asleep.
I have an idea.
Use this.
I can easily fall asleep to this sound.
Goodnight.
Dharma?
When was the last time you lost consciousness?
What?
Three aces.
Oh man, uncle.
You won again?
-Did you call me here to lose? -No.
I was planning a robbery in the neigbouring flat.
Which is why I needed you to come here from the main gate.
What are you saying?
Just kidding.
Oh God uncle...
Oh Nithya! This guard is from my neighbouring village.
Can you make some tea for him?
Thank you so much for this interview sir.
It really means a lot.
I know I have been hounding you and you are really busy, but...
I will just quickly tell you about my work.
Sir... I can't see...
Sir, I can't...
-Uncle! -Good, your meeting is over.
Now hurry up and make me a cup of tea.
-Uncle I... -I don't make tea. I make coffee.
I know. Just kidding.
Laxmi! Hurry up and make me a cup of tea.
I have a strong craving for it.
You know, I wanted to say something.
Ever since I came here...
everything has been great.
Except for the food.
No...
I mean, the food is good too.
But the Okra is not that crunchy.
The dal has too much oil.
And let's not even talk about the roti...
Laxmi might have added some extra salt today,
but she makes really good food uncle.
Oh, tell me something.
Nithya, can't you make any food?
She does. She makes amazing food.
She makes a great pasta.
Well, that means that
you probably make amazing khichdi too.
I have an idea.
Why don't you make the food tomorrow onwards.
Wow! That's beautiful.
You make really good paintings Nithya.
Thank you.
Sorry...
But it's fine!
You can make an even better painting.
This was a horrible painting.
Just kidding.
Kidding...
Namaste, I am Gautam Malhotra's daughter-in-law, Nithya.
I needed to talk to you about something important.
This is great!
It's here!
Nithya, my child.
Open the door, it's probably the sugarcane juice.
Karan ordered it for me.
Can you hear me?
Hey!
What? Shani?
You?
-Aunty! -Bless you, child.
Thank God,
at least you still remember my name.
And you Karan, you're teaming up with your uncle
and causing trouble for my daughter-in-law.
I didn't do anything aunty...
I didn't trouble her at all.
Quiet. Both of you keep your mouth shut.
What is this brazen behaviour?
You don't care about the women in your own home.
What... What are you saying... Listen to me...
Keep your mouth shut.
First of all, you decided to live at your nephew's house
without even asking him.
That's ridiculous.
He is my nephew!
I don't need permission to come live here.
Yes, but don't forget that along with your nephew
this house belongs to his wife too.
-Listen to me... -No, I don't want to.
What did you say to me? Tell me that.
-What? -What did you say?
That you were going out with your friends for five days
because you haven't gone anywhere after the wedding.
Those five days have turned into twelve!
Do you ever plan on coming back home?
No, no... the thing is...
Karan!
He insisted... He made me swear I would stay.
Staying was my only option!
I see!
That was your only option?
Wow! That's amazing.
They are both newlyweds.
How will there be any romance with you here?
-Do you remember our wedding? -What?
After the wedding,
you didn't even let me step out of our room for an entire month!
Hey, why are you bringing this up in front of the kids?
Kids? They are not the kids.
You are!
Do you think you can become young
with cucumber on your eyes and a face mask!
Okay, that's enough.
I am booking a train ticket for both of you today.
Why?
-There is no need for that. -Why?
Both of you teamed up to trouble my daughter-in-law.
So, I have decided something.
Now that I am here, I will stay for one week.
-What? -Yes.
Yes, and I even told Laxmi to take a holiday.
-But why? -Oh no,
so you still don't get it?
Now both of us will sit like queens
while you serve us as our servants.
And listen,
I am not kidding.
