Really? - What?
Does it mean you have resigned?
Aai! Taking a sabbatical doesn't mean leaving the job.
It means taking leave. - Holiday?
Something like that.
For three or four days? - Three or four months.
What?!
Months?!
Why do you need such a long leave?
To think. - About what?
What to do next... - What is left now?
You're married. You have a career... a job... your own house...
Your hair might start greying now!
Aai!
You've achieved everything. Everuthing is just fine.
Are you listening to me?
I want to start my clothing brand.
What's this new fad?
It's not new. It's quite old.
I'm fed up. - Of what?
Everything.
Hey... Rama... listen... Stop. Stop. Stop.
Is everything alright?
Aai, it's been years!
No matter what I say, you think of only one thing!
Everything is fine between us. - Shh! Alright! Alright.
Actually I want to do this for myself.
Leave it. You won't understand.
Right! Since you turned thirteen, I stopped understanding.
That's why I'm asking you directly.
What exactly are you seeking?
Something new.
Out... out.. out.. out...
Oh no!
This is the fourth catch he has dropped!
He shouldn't be allowed inside the stadium!
This new generation isn't a patch on the old generation.
Back in the day we would practice with cricket balls made of tar.
They used to be terribly hard.
Tar? - Yes.
A ball made of tar?
No, Baba, it couldn't be a ball made of tar.
Maybe naphthalene balls. The ones that we keep in the clothes closets.
Those white ones? - Yes.
Surely not. Otherwise the entire stadium would smell.
True that!
One thing's for sure.
These guys won't manage an opening partnership like Sachin and Sehwag.
Forget Sachin and Sehwag.
Do you dare to do it ike Gavaskar? Without helmet?
Could they face even one ball like that?
How bravely Gavaskar would face the West Indian bowlers!
Without a helmet! Incredible!
Actually, it's become more difficult now.
There is intense competition.
That's... No!
That's your competition?
Nikhil!
This is Nikhil.
Hi!
Long, long, long, long time!
Yes! I think it's been 7 or 8 years.
Yes. - We last met after your 12th grade exams.
Aditya, my husband.
Hi. - Nice to meet you.
Pleasure meeting you. This is Sakshi, my partner.
- Hi. Pleasure meeting you.
Hi. - Hi.
And this is Vasudha aunty. We spoke with her on the phone.
Of course. This is for you.
Wow! She's brought frangipani flowers for me!
Nikhil is my...
Uh... Aai, what do you call your grand uncle's daughter's son?
How about brother?
Nikhil's mother and I are distant cousins.
But back then no relationships were considered distant.
Even distant cousins were thought of as our near and dear ones.
Aunty, I'm starving!
Of course! Let's have lunch right away.
I've made dal because you asked for it.
Really? My mother has praised your dal so much!
Rama didi, this is for you.
Oh! - Please take it.
Thank you.
I hope you're not thinking that I should braid these flowers in your hair.
I don't really mind.
But if, while braiding these flowers in your hair...
...if the hairpin pierces your skull and makes a hole...
...and your brain falls out, what will we do?
Give it to me. May I try?
No. - I won't use the hair pin.
No.
What's this now?
Are you guys Kohli fans or Gill fans?
Actually, we're not into sports at all.
What?!
Not even cricket?! - No.
Hockey? Football? Basketball?
Table tennis? Lawn tennis?
Kabaddi?
Chess?
Monopoly?
Snakes and Ladders?
Marbles! - No.
Don't laugh! We were keen marble players as kids.
Nikhil is actually into video games.
Come on now. Please begin.
Eat to your heart's content.
The dal is delicious!
Mindblowing!
Hey! Move away a little!
I can't eat comfortably.
You've kept both elbows on the table!
It's too cramped.
Aditya! I don't sit like that!
You're such a big bore!
Have you found a house? - Yes. Finally!
We shifted everything yesterday. - Oh.
Did you have a hard time finding a place?
On finding out that we're a live-in couple...
...people would back out from an almost finalised deal.
Really. We looked at twenty-two houses!
I counted.
And it's not as if we have kept our parents in the dark.
We had told them that we would pose as their parents if needed.
Rama didi, what do you do>
I'm going to start my clothing brand.
When did this happen?
Why are you looking at him?
Score.... Baba wants to know the score.
You want the score, right? - Yes!
Right. He wants the score.
I can't hear clearly. I'll be right back.
Sure.
Rama didi is interesting. Running her own business and all!
Brave, I must say. All the best!
The shot's gone right out of the stadium. - True.
Did you know?
Uh...yes. She told me a little while ago.
I too remember that she had told me.
When did I tell you?
You didn't?
Did I read your mind?
Actually I don't remember what we had decided.
Do I know about it or not?
But Rama didi, this is super cool!
What type of brand do you have?
Actually I've only just applied for a sabbatical.
Currently I'm working on market research and designs.
I'm only going to make samples right now.
Amazing! Freelance is the best!
There is nothing better than working for yourself.
Oh! So now only... - Only what?
Er... nothing.
Why are you saying 'nothing'?
He wants to say that after you leave your job...
...Aditya will have to take care of everything.
Er... No... I don't want to say any such thing.
I have savings.
Don't you dare touch the Mutual Find investments.
Aai!
I don't get the logic behind...
...not touching your savings till your last breath.
Savings are there to use in times of need, right?
And I need them right now.
I don't understand the new generation at all!
Why do they constantly want to try new things?
It's alright to practice as a hobby over the weekend.
You already help your friends in designing their clothes.
Eventually you can start charging for that.
Shanaya! She had designed all of Shanaya's wedding dresses!
I had told her then itself. 'You must charge her'.
Aai!
Otherwise our work isn't considered important.
Aai, please decide.
Should I do it as a hobby or profession?
Do it as you please. But don't leave your job.
Aai, taking a sabbatical doesn't mean leaving your job.
Thank God you said something!
I feel lilke saying a lot more.
I've been meaning to ask for a while.
Sakshi, what do you do?
She's a graphic designer. - Yeah.
I was doing it because I liked it.
But Nikhil pushed me to do it professionally.
Come on! You're really good at it.
You're speaking out of love.
I really have a lot to learn.
Sorry. Just a minute.
See, you're a workaholic.
I like it.
Oh God!
Ooh! Aah!
Oh my God!
The utensils can't speak. I'm giving voice to their feelings.
You can understand their feelings, not mine.
That's easy.
You have no desire to go to office tomorrow.
So you're taking it out on the utensils instead of me.
I'm fed up of everything.
What is wrong?
Oh... OK...
You don't want to work at all, is it?
I'm here. I'll do it.
Move a little. More. A little more. That's it.
You can rest your head. Just give me a little space.
Now the work will be done smoothly.
You'll get shiny utensils!
What did you feel about Sakshi and Nikhil?
What a fantastic couple! Both are so sweet.
Hmm.
You know what I felt?
They're so...
And we're so...
We're so what?
We're super!
I was just speaking of you. - Hi.
I've called to invite you to our house-warming party.
Sakshi insisted I invite you formally. We want you and Aditya to come.
It's on the 12th.
The 12th... It's a Thursday, right? - Please. No!
It's the middle of the week. The next day is wasted.
We'll be there.
Yes, Aditya is here. I'll tell him.
Yes. Thank Sakshi on our behalf.
Bye.
Man!
Don't be such an oldie! Why are you talking like Baba?
It's the middle of the week. No!
Madam, your leave hasn't been approved yet.
Don't behave as if you're on leave.
You look so good while drying utensils.
You have a great bond with the utensils.
I know I have a great bond with the utensils.
But I'm worried that you have divorced your sense of humour.
Ah!
Rama! - I'm in the bedroom.
Listen, I know today is Thursday...
We have to go to Nikhil and Sakshi's...
What's the matter?
Stunning!
Come on! I'll quickly freshen up.
I'm sure you've planned my outfit.
I'll freshen up, change, and let's leave immediately.
Welcome! Welcome! - Thank you.
Come in. Sakshi!
Rama didi and Aditya are here.
Hi! I'm so glad you could make it.
Hi! - This is for both of you.
Rama didi! You didn't have to!
You're starting a new life. We ought to give you something.
You spoke exactly like my mother.
So sweet! Thank you! Please come in.
Please make yourselves comfortable. I'll get the drinks.
Judging by everybody's clothes, I feel we're quite overdressed.
Really. You'll love them. He's super talented, super chill.
Hey! Neha... Tara... meet Rama didi, Nikhil's sister.
Hi. - Hi.
She is going to start her clothing brand soon.
Well... actually... nothing is finalised yet.
Rama didi, don't be shy! You must tell everybody.
Right? - Right. Totally.
I just thought you guys could give her a few business tips.
Sure. - I mean... yeah...
Coming!
So, sorry. You guys carry on. I'll be back. Nikhil!
Hi! - Hi.
I don't have a plan yet. It's all in my head right now.
At least you are thinking about it. That's the first step.
What do you guys do? - I have a packaging business.
And Tara makes lovely artistic things.
Well, my products get sold thanks to her packaging.
We always compliment each other.
Is your business new too? - No.
It's been what... 5 years now!
Oh yeah! We started it right after college.
We had done the planning in the final year of college.
Didi, do visit our studio sometime.
Yeah... - Studio?
We have rented a bungalow.
My set-up is downstairs and Neha's is upstairs.
Yu want to see? Wait.
Look.
Didi, you have a clothing business, right?
There's no brand yet.
And, don't call me didi. Call me Rama.
OK.
It's all, still, at the concept level.
I'm still doing a job.
But I'm certain that I want to do this.
Some ideas and thoughts are going on at the back of the mind.
Nice. That's good.
It actually helps when you have thought it through.
Right. But the ideas and thoughts shouldn't remain in your mind.
Like my mother says, 'Let it be sown, not buried.'
Yeah. - Yeah.
Catch you later. - Yeah, yeah, sure.
Lovely meeting you. - Yeah. Same. Same. Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Wow!
Aditya! - Yes?
Aditya, Sakshi's friend Neha has 2 Lakh...
That's a new cushion!
That one is new too.
Get up. Change your clothes.
Wait for 2 minutes. Just 2 minutes please.
My back is already acting up.
What difference will 2 minutes make?
Dear! You have no idea!
In 2 minutes... - Shut up!
Don't delay it by cracking poor jokes.
You know I don't like lolling on the sofa in outside clothes.
I'm actually fed up with your constant sleepiness.
You were even dozing off in the party!
Hey! I was terribly tired!
And there was dim lighting.
And the songs were like lullabies.
I slept so soundly, you know!
Do you even hear what you say? Do you?
We had gone to a party after so long! The two of us. Together.
And you slept!
One speaks to people in parties... Makes new acquaintainces...
But the moment you found a spot, you settled and dozed off!
I'm sure Nikhil and Sakshi think we're boring and old.
It's been years since we hosted a party.
Do you even remember when our group of friends came here last?
And, listen up...
I like to sit next to you during lunch and dinner.
I like to show my love.
And you're bothered by my poking elbows?
They're only elbows. Not horns!
Remember how we used to be?
Nothing remains now!
There's nothing from your side.
You hardly ever listen to me nowadays.
You know I don't like lolling in the sofa. Yet you are lying there on purpose!
The 2 minutes that I had asked you for, were for this.
I thought, on returning home, you'll say, 'Let's have coffee.'
I thought I'll make coffee before you ask for it.
So, I put the mocha pot on.
And I waited here. As I was. Without changing my clothes.
For 2 minutes.
Alright. Now continue what you were saying.
You should've stopped me.
Had I interrupted your volcanic anger, I would've suffered more blasts!
At least you got it out of your system.
Is this close enough?
No, no. A little more.
I want to express my love while drinking coffee.
Is this close enough?
Aditya!
Aditya!!!
Hey! Rama! Such sounds are alright in the bedroom, not in the living room!
My leave has been approved!
Just the way I wanted. For four months.
Amazing!
Listen, if Nikhil and Sakshi are still there, shall we go back?
For the Karaoke night? - No!
I'm feeling so charged up right now!
I'm going to fly. Wait and watch.
Listen, Rama...
I don't want to rain on your parade...
But...
I'm sure you're serious about your clothing brand...
Still, why don't you take a proper vacation for a few days?
Don't do any work at all.
Take a proper break.
Just watch what I do now.
Hey hey hey! Stop!
I want to share my formal business plan with you.
Right now? - Register the brand name.
Buy the domain. I've emailed the site to you. Get it done right away.
This is too much stuff.
I thought you would tidy up quickly.
I really feel secure when I'm doing something with fabrics.
Yes! - Yes! Kala's first exhibition!
These are empty clouds. All thunder and no rain.
You're happy, right?
I think this collection isn't working.
I think you are running away. - What?
I'm going to hire an assistant. - Hmm?
Rashmi Jadhav, right? - Right.
I'm terribly interested in fashion.
Like too much interest. A lot!
It's looking so elegant! - Truly.
- Gauri, Swapnil.
What a perfect family! Isn't it?
Are we wrong to push you to have a baby?
I often think, how has our marriage sustained for ten years?
Your inane chatter, and the patience I have developed to listen to it.
Amazing!
