Beti No. 1

Hail Mother Goddess Kali, Durga, I bow to you in all humility!

In the last ten years, my wife conceived three times..

..each time she gave birth to a daughter.

She is pregnant for the fourth time..

..please give her a son this time.

Or else, I'll be ruined.

Please give me a son this time, Goddess.

Please give me a son. Hail Mother Durga!

Come along, Mummy. Come along, Daddy.

Come in mummy. Mummy, I told Shobha quite clearly that mummy..

..was coming to see her grandson.

Has the delivery taken place?

No, the delivery has not happened but..

..whenever it happens it will be a son!

Prior to the delivery..

..how can you say that it will be a son for sure?

Son or daughter, what difference does it make?

Live royally like your mummy does.

Do you know what people said when your mummy was born?

They said a son is born!

Shall we? -Sure.

Come Sit here, Mummy. We will know in a moment.

Mr. Ram Bhatnagar? -Yes, that's me.

Your wife has delivered.

It's a son, right? -No, it's a girl.

Mummy, mummy! Please wait. Doctor..

..you're probably mistaken, please check again.

I'm not mistaken. If you any doubt.

Nurse, show him the child. You check for yourself.

What is it? -Girl!

Mummy, mummy! Daddy, daddy!

Mummy is here! Come in, mother.

Greetings mother! -Greetings!

Whose letter is it? -Brother Laxman's.

Laxman!

Good morning, mummy! Good morning!

I got your audience early *morning, I'll have a good day now.

Okay! You didn't leave for the shop yet?

I'm going right away. Going! -Listen. -What happened?

Did you go to your wife's house to meet her?

Why are you laughing?

Is it April 1st today that you April Fool me!

She has given birth to two daughters.

And she went to her parents' house without your permission.

What do you think? After all this, I go to her..

Your wife is 8 months pregnant. She has sent this letter.

Is this Usha's letter?

No, this is a reply to the letter you wrote.

Why did you write to her?

Mummy, I'm sorry.

This means you only wrote to her, you didn't go there.

No, I didn't go there.

Really? So your wife got pregnant via post?

Daddy, why whip a fallen horse?

..divorce her!

Mummy, listen to me! Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!

We were practicing for the Pepsi youth festival.

Will you spend your entire life in dance and song?

Don't you want to get married and settle down?

I will settle down eventually..

..but I must win today's competition.

Today you've to go to somebody's house..

..before you go to the competition. -Whose house?

Grandfather will tell you.

What is it, Grandfather? Where do I have to go?

You see, according to my astrology..

..the girl you meet after 4 p.m. Today..

..will be your wife and come to this house.

Grandfather..

..why do you want to try out your astrology with me?

I don't do anything, child. My astrology makes me do it.

Have a look at this girl's picture.

What is this you have done, son?

What is befitting at this point?

You fool, your mother is only asking..

..you to marry, not to consume poison!

I would gladly consume poison if I had to..

..at least I would die a quick death.

Daddy, if I get married, and like my brothers..

..wives if she gives birth to..

..daughters, mummy would actually fry..

..my wife in the frying pan like some fish!

Son, just like every disease has its medicine.

This one has none. -It does!

How?

Marry a girl who already has a son!

Look here, how does it matter whether the son..

..is born before marriage or after?

You will live in peace, isn't it?

Bharat!

If I decline, will you spill the beans?

You're smart.

What's to be done?

You've to take a book from the National Library..

..and take it to room 303 of the Savoy hotel.

How do I know which book it is?

As soon as you enter the library, it is the..

..fourth book on the right hand side rack.

What's in the book?

No concern of yours, you know.

How much will I get?

50,000.

..he sees it through till the end!

Famous detective Mulayamchand's new feat!
