Khumar - First Season

Look, son, Rufi,

I had told you on the day of the engagement that

we are respectable people who follow traditions and customs.

I have brought along my relatives,

and it is not easy to face the relatives.

You have to be really careful of these things...

... in the matters of weddings and marriages.

That is why for the ease of both families

I had written something and given you to you.

You must remember.

Brother,

it had some requirements to marry off the daughter with respect,

and nothing else.

It were some things of needs

and it would have come of use to her.

It would have been used by your sister. God have mercy,

we have nothing. We have a lot from God.

We don’t lack wealth, we don’t lack things,

and it also gives you an idea

that the people you are going to form a relation with

they are not lowlifes,

they have an idea about living in new relations,

keeping families together and its importance.

Yes, aunty, you are absolutely right.

But thing is that

everyone has their own standards of respect in this society.

Hareem is a really good girl,

she is educated, she is sensible.

She will make your home heaven.

Hey, great. You said something great.

But I think you are thinking

that like boys usually get tied at the...

... last moment because of their respect,

maybe our hands are tied like that.

Don’t say that sister Durdana,

our hands are tied in front of you.

Look,

this is a matter of both your and our respect.

Look, right now,

we should first get the wedding done...

... with good will and understanding. Please.

Everyone is waiting.

Mr. Taufiq, no issue,

let them wait. No big deal.

Look,

you found the same excuses that the girl’s family thinks of.

You must have heard the idiom,

your respect is in your own hand.

You didn’t consider us worthy,

you gave us no importance.

You got us embarrassed in front of our relatives at the last moment.

You should have told us that you had ill fate in your heart,

that you are not even capable of fulfilling our just demands.

Huh?

And remember one thing,

that is,

the wedding still hasn’t taken place.

Come Dilara.

Come, have a seat.

You forgot the way to our humble abode.

Kehkasha what are you saying?

Now this home belongs to our daughter,

we will come with our feet on our head, in fact,

we will come again and again.

Hey, sister in law, this is your own home.

The children are really happy.

We talk to them daily.

Wherever Huma and Rayyan go,

they make a video call

and we feel that

we are enjoying with them.

Exactly.

Greetings.

Greetings.

How are you daughter Laiba?

I am absolutely fine.

May they love always last like this.

You know,

you people are lucky

that they call you.

We just got a call from Humna,

just to tell us that

they are so busy

that they cannot even message us or call us.

Our Humna is the only child

and she is really attached with us.

That’s why she knows how much we miss her.

We are all alone here.

That is why she calls.

The same thing happens in every home.

All the children are the same.

Rayyan too is really attached to me.

He is the eldest child of the home.

He doesn’t stop calling me mummy, mummy, mummy.

Right, Laiba?

And when Humna went to college,

I wanted to stay with her.

I would go on the smallest of excuse

even if it was just for four days.

I don’t see your Faiz.

He has gone to a friend’s home for a wedding.

He is like that,

he lives up to relations and also friendships.

Nasir, what is all this?

What is aunty saying?

I had told you earlier,

that mama has old mentality.

For her customs and traditions

are no less than religion and the world.

Changing her thinking is not that easy.

I have tried,

you too also try, if she listens to you.

What can I do?

Nasir, right now my sister is sitting on the stage

dressed as a bride, waiting.

And you are telling me you cannot do anything.

You go talk to mama. Okay?

Whatever decision she makes, I will accept it.

Hey, things on one side,

you people didn’t give us this much respect,

me and my daughter,

I have one son, she has just one brother,

you should have given us some small jewelry,

some dress,

you should have given us some gifts.

Is this the respect we have in your eyes?

And my grown up son,

my earning son,

we have also understood what respect you have for him.

Wow, just wow.

Aunty, I humbly request,

leave these matters,

let’s not discuss them.

Whatever Rufi could do for his sister, he did.

Hey, what did he do? He did nothing.

Four metal utensil,

four dresses for the girl,

and big boxes,

God knows what was in it.

Is that the dowry? That was it?

Sister Durdana,

actually the thing is that

we tried hard to our daughter Hareem understand a lot.

She doesn’t want all this,

she didn’t listen to me.

Hey, she didn’t listen to you at all.

The one who doesn’t listen to her parents,

how will she listen to us?

What respect would she give us?

By the way tell me,

what does your daughter have so much pride for?

What does she think of herself?

Aunty, please.

All the guests are waiting,

what are we talking about?

Come on, lets continue the customs.

Leave these things,

why are we getting stuck in this?

Hey my son, you care so much about your friend,

then my son,

you do something.

Hey you are wealthy,

you are rich,

you give these children something as their wedding gift or a prize.

I don’t understand.

Hey, come here.

Come to me, I will explain to you.

Come here. Come to me, I will tell you.

What is the big deal in this?

Come on.

Look, you are Rufi’s friend, right?

Friends are like brothers,

so you should support him at this time.

Thank God, you are wealthy,

you don’t lack anything,

why don’t you do one thing,

that you write a cheque for three million in Nasir’s name?

Look, our and yours respect will be saved in front of the relatives,

that the girl didn’t come empty handed,

she brought something. Huh?

It is something ordinary for you.

Three million has no worth in front of your wealth.

Am I right?

Hello mummy.

Mummy,

hear me out carefully, don’t take it lightly.

Please. I am requesting you.

What is the matter, Faiz?

Be quick.

Mummy,

Rufi’s sister’s wedding has stopped.

The boy’s family has put a demand for three million.

If they don’t get this money right now,

then they will go back.

Three million? Right now?

Are you in your senses, Faiz?

Mama, I am in my complete senses.

Mama, a modest family,

a respectable family,

right now is going through a tough time,
