'My mom takes a resolution on my birthday every year.'

'Teaching me music, dance, acting etc.'

'But I took a decision on my 23rd birthday.'

'I decided to die.'

'I would've seen the God of Death'

'if I had died as planned.'

'But since I was alive, '

I have seen many girls that go shopping

once their wedding date is fixed.

But you are the first one that tried to commit suicide.

Didn't I give you everything you wanted?

Hello! - Maha! I'm at the counter.

Should I pay the bill by cheque or by cash?

Pay with card.

He spoilt you rotten with his pampering.

Had you listened to me, you would've become

Sania Mirza or Saina Nehwal.

Hello!

How much discount do you want me to ask?

10 % or 20 %?

15 %.

I think you would have had more sense

if I had sent you to a hostel when you were a little girl.

Yes?

Should I take the bill on your name or on Anu's name?

I'm coming. Wait.

Sure.

He will definitely make us pay a higher amount on phone bill

than the hospital bill.

Hi! - Weren't you downstairs?

No.

Daddy! You are a smart man.

I had no choice because she started lecturing you

as soon as you opened your eyes.

Why is my puppy looking so weak?

Oh dear! Your cheeks have gone flat.

What happened, dear?

The puppy is hungry for ice-cream.

Let's order it. Hmm.

Hello! How are you? - Hello! Good morning, doctor.

Morning. Morning. Morning.

Is everything okay, doctor? - She is alright. But one thing.

You should buy knives from a different shop.

They are not very sharp.

It is horrible if a doctor has a sense of humor. Right, dear?

My jail is in Jubilee Hills.

Sorry, my house.

Anu!

Wear this when Shekhar comes to see you.

Wear that when you go to dinner.

I chose the matching jewelry and kept it in the locker.

8524. Please remember the number.

8524.

Don't sit there with a dull face when he comes home.

Be a little stylish and hot.

Got it?

Mom...

Hmm?

I. - You?

With you...

Just say it. Don't drag it like your father.

I will come to Chennai with you.

Hmm.

Shekhar is very rich, he is well-educated.

He doesn't have sisters, uncles or aunts.

And to top it all, he lives in Hyderabad.

Do you realize how hard it is to find a guy like him?

I have this urgent conference that I should attend

or I would've been here to make sure everything is fine.

If you and your dad ruin this proposal,

I will kill you.

Maha! Are you still packing?

I'm baby-sitting, not packing. Go.

Anu!

How many times should I tell you?

Bye, aunt Latha. Nice journey.

Thank you. - Welcome.

Morning, sir. - Have a seat.

'Coffee' or 'Tea'? - 'Coffee'.

No, it causes acidity. You may go.

Sir, my case... - Thank you. Bye.

Yes.

You don't want to meet Shekhar. Is that it?

Hmm.

Gopal!

No. Nothing important. Sir called me. That's it.

Stupid fellow. - Sir?

Is madam still packing?

I can't see her suitcase yet.

It means she is still packing, sir.

He is a really intelligent man.

Is that a new phone? - Yes, sir.

Madam bought it for me the other day.

It is an I-phone.

You kept her photo here too?

Keep a God's photo. It will be more pleasant.

Daddy. - Yes, dear.

Madam is my Goddess as far as I'm concerned.

Huh?

You mean I'm a God.

Oh no! Can we worship a tiger just because

Goddess Durga mounts on it?

At least you think that I'm a tiger.

You are a tiger without any power, sir.

Gopal! - Yes, madam.

Who are you calling, daddy?

You are not helping me. You are waste. - Hey, wait.

Hello!

Hello! Who is it?

Is this Shekhar's grandfather Banerjee?

There's no need for so much. Just half will do.

What?

No need to ask for Shekhar's grandfather Banerjee.

Just asking if I'm Banerjee is enough.

Mr. Banerjee! Are you coming to see Mr. Ramalingam's girl?

Which Ramalingam?

Darn! - Daddy! Please, please, please.

I mean are you coming to see Mrs Mahalaxmi's daughter?

Yes. - Hmm.

You are excited to hear her name

as if the wedding is already done. But she is going to Chennai.

Giving me half the details is not enough.

Tell me the whole story.

Please. - Oh!

You kept all your work aside to come down from America.

Can't she postpone her one day trip to Chennai?

Who are you? - I'm Rama.

When you win a lottery, you will see how much you won.

You wouldn't care who sold you the lottery ticket.

My Goddess' gift.

They won't come to see you.

Your mom won't be here for ten days. Rule Hyderabad.

Hmm? What?

No matter where I go in this city,

I'm known as Mahalaxmi's daughter, daddy.

Hmm!

I want to run away to a place where I can't hear her name.

Hmm.

There is one place where you can't hear your mom's name.

Your aunt Kameshwari and uncle Krishnamurthy.

Aunt? - Yes.

I never saw her before.

It's been many years since she visited us last time.

Why?

Why? She doesn't get along with your mom.

Do they live here?

No.

They live in a small village called Kalavapudi

next to Vijayawada.

Village? - Hmm!

I don't know them.

Kameshwari asks about you whenever she calls, dear.

Do you speak to them? - Daddy!

Yes? - Do you smoke cigars?

I do a lot of things without your mom's knowledge.

Do I have a second mom?

Not yet. But I can try if you want.

Daddy!

You are such a smart man. Why don't you disagree with mom?

I keep my arguments limited to court.

At home, your mom always wins.

If I'm winning any argument by chance,

your mom gets into a fit and faints by default.

That's how I started keeping my mouth shut.

I thought others will call me a sage if I remain silent.

But they started calling me a husband.

Husband!

Husband! - Yes, I'm coming. Huh?

Don't smoke.

I will send you to Kalavapudi today itself if you say okay.

You can stay there for these ten days.

All alone?

Take Mangamma with you. - How?

How? She will get a call that her family member is sick.

Oh God! - Mangamma!

My grandmother.

Go, see her. But please don't shout like that.

What about me?

Gopal sends a report about me to mom every day

as if he is James Bond.

We have a scheme for that.

Daddy! - Don't call me daddy!

I won't tolerate it

if you disobey your mother and do what you want.

You will be given your coffee, breakfast and meals

in your room for ten days. - Yes.

Madam left us orders that we should break your two legs

if you come downstairs.

Not two legs, sir. Just one leg is enough.

Except for you and your mom, all common people like us

stick to the ground floor, my dear.

He will never dare to climb the stairs

and come to your private chambers.

Yeah! - Yes! Let's party!

Daddy!

Why are you both shouting?

Maha! - Because I'm not here,

I won't drink

regularly - I will call you.

Do you have anything else to say?
