What's all this?
What a sweet baby!
Did you make it?
The way Goddess Parvati made one?
Wake up first!
Right. I'm not awake. I'm dreaming.
Pinch me.
Be quiet! Come outside.
I want to introduce you to somebody.
To Lord Shankar?
Hello!!
Meet my husband Aditya. Gauri. Swapnil.
Hello. - Hi.
Hi. - Hi.
And this is their cutie, Revan.
Ravan?
Not Ravan! Revan.
Revan. Oh.
GOT? Raven? Crow?
Not Revan. It's Revan with a hard N.
It means 'Son of River Narmada - Revan'.
Wow! What a great name! Beautiful!
Yes, yes, I'll introduce too.
This is Tagya.
He's very naughty.
What a perfect family!
Right?
I'll get excellent tea for you.
No, no. It's fine.
You're still setting up your house.
Your kitchen isn't functional yet. Otherwise I'd have made it here.
Don't worry. I'll get tea.
And I'm not saying this to impress you.
I make tea at home every morning.
And he makes it very well. Both tea and coffee.
Jokes too.
Go now!
I follow my wife's orders very well too.
I'll be back.
The tea is fantastic, isn't it?
Are you both from Pune?
Yes. I mean, I am, he isn't. - I'm from Mumbai.
Mumbai? - Yes. Dadar, to be specific.
Then moving from Mumbai to Pune...
Yes, it was very tough. For him.
But we'd decided to settle in Pune after we had a baby.
Yes.
Which area in Pune did you live in?
Proper Shaniwar Peth.
Me too! - Really?
Ahilyadevi School? - Ahilyadevi?
Which batch? - 2002
I'm from the 2004 batch. - Wow! Fantastic!
In the beginning we used to live in the Suyog Mangal Karyalaya lane.
School was a minute away.
I used to live near Daskshinmukhi Maruti.
Amazing! - Great!
I'm sure we've crossed paths as kids.
We might have played together on the ground during recess.
I know! - Perhaps you had the same doctor too.
Maybe they took injections together in childhood.
Aditya! They're not used to your humour.
Soon they will.
Don't you want to ask Swapnil anything?
Is this Lando Norris' frame?
Oh Man! F1?
Oh yes! F1! Big fan!
Always! Since Hamilton.
Me too!
Bang on! - Bang on!
That's it? That's all?
What do you mean? This is more than enough!
We have found a lifelong connection!
Alright. I'll make a move. You guys carry on.
She is free. But I have work. I must start getting ready.
You don't have a job? - I do.
I'm in Sales.
I'm on leave today. I have to take Baba to the doctor for some tests.
Oh. OK.
See you. You enjoy.
What's this now?
Aditya! - Yes. Coming.
Wow! Pohe - Upama combo? Fantastic!
I didn't have to rush anywhere today. So, I made both.
Not just today. You don't have to rush anywhere for the next four months.
Chill!
I have made a plan for 'Kala'.
'Kala'? - The name of my brand.
Is it not good? - Not at all! It's fabulous!
You already named your brand?
Not just the name, I have an entire plan.
I want you to listen to it. - I've listened to it so many times.
You have a secret folder? Hmm?
And a secret diary of sketches?
And numerous folders of fabrics in your secret folder?
All that is about sampling.
I want to share my proper business plan with you.
Now?
Actually, I have to...
I mean... Sure... tell me...
Sit here. I'll show you.
I'll imagine it. No need to move.
Go on, tell me. I'm listening.
I've located some fabric vendors.
I'm going to source fabric from them.
Then I'll give my own designs to the tailor.
I'll get them stitched as per my specifications.
Initially I'll get my friends to...
What are you doing? What are you watching?
I've put the map on.
The red patch on the route to office is rapidly increasing.
With every word you're saying, ten cars are added to the traffic.
Please don't look at me like that!
And your timing to discuss this, is a little off.
When I return tonight, let's discuss this in detail. OK?
Or I'll call you from the car. Alright?
Aditya, leave.
Go. - Rama...
Just leave.
And there are four months...
Don't harp on four months constantly.
Four months will fly by.
Sorry, sorry! When I return tonight, let's discuss at leisure.
First eat that up, and leave.
Look, tell me till I finish this. I'll listen.
Either eat or listen. I want your complete attention.
I am paying... - Just eat!
Tonight, then.
Rama, 'Kala' is a fabulous name!
Fa-bu-lous!
Hi Rama didi! Do come in. - Hi!
Sorry, I hope you didn't have to go someplace.
I just popped over... - No! Come in!
Why the formality? What will you have? Tea? Coffee?
Coffee. - Sure. I'll get it.
Will you please shut the door?
Here you go. - Thank you.
Tell me.
I want to discuss about my brand.
Let's cheer to that!
Cheers! Just this morning I was telling Nikhil.
It's so cool!
Rama didi is taking a sabbatical and doing something dramatic.
Dramatic? - Have you decided on a name?
Yes. 'Kala'.
Best! Have you created a logo?
Not yet. - Let's do it now.
We'll get unique options with AI.
Keep talking. I'll check it out.
Rama didi, keep talking. I can work while listening.
I feel like doing something of the mix-and-match type.
I love experimenting with fabrics.
For example, a combination of Tussar and Brocade.
Or a combination of linen and Sanganeri printed cotton.
Are you listening?
Sakshi... - Yes, I'm listening.
I feel like making ethnic dresses of these combinations.
Or maybe Indo-Western styles.
But I want to do something of the mix-and-match variety.
Nice. But I'll suggest, don't commit to just one thing.
People should a variety of options in your boutique.
Let there be sarees, dresses, dress materials...
Even some jewellery.
When they have many options...
Even if they don't like something, they'll buy something else.
And... done...
Look at the logos.
Check them.
If you like any, let's get it printed on your envelopes, letterheads, and bags.
Did you get the Shop Act license? - No... Just today I...
Check that. I'll check the Shop Act license.
- Hi, Manoj uncle...
- You do Shop Act and licensing work, right?
Will you tell me what documents are required?
OK.
Yes...
Done. Best. Alright. Thank you.
Yes, works. Bye.
Rama didi, I've sent you the list on WhatsApp. Have a look.
See, first things first.
You'll make the creatives and designs.
But you must look at the business side too.
So, register your name, get the domain.
I've emailed the site. Get an email ID immediately.
Get a bank account.
And yes, strictly keep the personal and professional finances separate.
Do not mix them at all. OK?
I have sent you the numbers of some CAs.
I've also sent you some shopping websites.
They launch local brands.
Take a look at them too.
Will you have a protein bar? - Huh?
Protein bar.
When my brain goes into overdrive, I feel terribly hungry.
Then I eat a protein bar instead of unhealthy food.
Should I get one for you?
Even I feel like eating one now.
Best. I'll get it. Hang on.
Aditya! Everything is going too fast. I can't handle this!
I know, right? This year too went too fast! Incredible!
What're you saying? I'm saying something else altogether!
At least clarify the context! How would I know what you're talking about?
I thought you would get it.
Automatically? - Not automatically!
Had I not sent you a message that I'm visiting Sakshi?
To speak about the brand.
Haven't you seen my message? - I have seen it.
Just from the message, I can't know what you discussed.
The minutes of this meeting haven't reached me telepathically.
Then it's a bit much to expect me to react to it!
Quiet! Just listen to me.
I thought I'll come to Sakshi's place, we'll have coffee...
...discuss work related stuff a bit.
I'll tell her the name of my brand. But...
She's already made the brand logo! Now she's making the creatives!
Are they not good?
No, they're good. But... - So?
What do you mean by 'So'?
She's just sent me the list of documents required for licensing!
She's sent contact details of CAs!
She's speaking about the bank account, Shop Act, and...
All this while you were feeling it's getting late.
You were desperate for the sabbatical to be approved.
Now that things are quickly falling into place, you're feeling rushed.
What exactly do you want?
Aditya, this is too.. - Shall we leave?
Uh... Where to?
Let's meet the experts. Come.
So, Rama didi, do you like anything?
Actually, I like everything.
Everything is very nice.
Carry on. Take your time. The three of us are outside.
Crazy! I can't remember a thing from that party after 11:30!
For me, it's blank after 10! - No!
I was so done with it!
Are you free next Saturday?
If both of you are free, I'll manage.
I want to share a lot. I really need to yak!
My place. Next Saturday.
We'll open a nice bottle of wine and have a girls' night.
Yes. Done. - Yeah? Yeah?
Sorry Rama didi, you have to listen to our boring planning.
Leave it. Tell me. How can we help you?
What you have created here is wonderful!
You will do it too.
Exactly. She'd like to know how you created this business.
Because you guys really are the best!
Rama didi, may I ask you something?
Why did you want a clothing business specifically?
There are already so many brands in the market.
Sorry! Now didi is going to tell a story.
Listen to it.
So... OK...
So, honestly, this thought came to me...
...when I felt that there's nothing new happening in my life.
The same old job... The same old people...
The same space... The same mundane routine...
It was getting too overwhelming.
Initially I thought I should take a vacation.
Then I thought of going on a lovely solo trip.
The I thought that these are temporary solutions.
I want something new...
Something that will challenge me...
Something that will generate passion in me again.
At such a time we turn to our friends, right?
You know, fabrics are my best friends.
When I have some work related stress...
...I make sketches for an hour to relieve the tension.
Then I feel so energised!
It might sound too poetic, but...
Modal, Tussar, Cotton... Ajrakh, Dabu, Bagru...
All these feel like names of my friends.
I really feel secure when I'm doing something with fabrics.
Like... my happy place...
Or... my second home.
So...
Even if there are many new clothing brands entering the market...
This is what I want to do.
Rama didi...
You're amazing!
I swear, I could be your follower for life!
Let's do whatever you say. Really.
You're so clear.
You don't need our help!
Tell us where your studio is. We'll directly come to see your collection.
I don't have a studio yet.
I operate from home.
I've decided that I won't get into these things for now.
Please don't do this.
Rule of thumb. Always have a different workspace.
OK. - I'm speaking from experience.
Nothing gets dome from home.
Every day you should feel that you're going to office.
Your mind should switch to work mode. It really helps.
Wow! There's no difference between rent and EMI any longer!
The rent is so high!
Your generatipn has lived in their own homes since childhood.
How would you understand the rental market?
What's your budget? I'll speak with the broker.
Maximum Rs. 20000
In 20000 you won't even get the garden of a bungalow!
People sitting on the sofa watching TV have no right to an opinion.
But why do you need to rent a bungalow?
Look for a simple apartment.
Aai, it's difficult to run a business in a housing society.
Getting permissions is a hassle.
First ask. Then form an opinion.
There are 3 offices in the building across us.
What would the rent for a 1 BHK be?
You'll get a 1 BHK in 20000.
In this area? - No, no. Not in this area.
1 BHK apartments may not even be available.
He's saying you'll get one on the outskirts. Is that fine?
No! The market will be far away.
Half my time will be spent at the tailor's or at the market.
Basically you want a centrally located place.
Yes.
Rama, an old apartment in a nice lane in the centre should be fine, right?
A small tea-stall close by.
A misal shop around the corner.
A tiny balcony that opens out to a lovely tree.
You'll hear the sound of sparrows even if it's in the heart of the city.
Right? - Correct.
You can't get something like that. Don't harbour stupid fantasies.
Just shut up.
And sparrows don't make sounds. They chirp!
You know what I think?
You want to try out a new hobby. Why do you need a separate space?
These are empty clouds. All thunder and no rain.
Aai, you won't get it.
Even Sakshi's 2 friends insisted that I should have a separate workplace.
Is that so? How old are they?
How does that matter?
No. Do tell how old they are.
Get it? You're at a different stage of life.
There are responsibilities. You have some important decisions to take.
Starting a family...
Is it not enough that I am starting my own business?
Is having a child the only thing that will be considered as my achievement?
Why do you pay attention to her?
Listen Rama... - You don't say a word!
And don't ask me to be calm.
Sakshi, who I only just met is helping me...
...and the one who should be...
I have a brilliant idea! It's amazing!
What a wonderful idea!
The happiness that I'd feel back in the day...
...when I could turn a case ' in my favour in the courts...
...is the happiness I'm feeling right now. Wow!
M'Lord, please could you come out?
What is it? - Please could you come out?
What? - I have thought of a great place.
What did you say before?
In a nice lane in the centre...
As if in a nice lane in the centre.
Small. But lovely.
Close to a tea-stall, a misal shop...
And a place where you get Irani Bun-Maska!
A tiny balcony that opens out to a lovely tree.
What was the last thing? - Sparrows chirping.
A place where you'll hear sparrows chirping...
...despite being in the heart of the city.
Baba, now tell me which space it is.
Has the broker suggested a place right now?
He's speaking about the upstairs room here!
Right? - Absolutely right, M'Lord!
The Goddess of Justice herself has delivered the verdict!
How did you read my mind?
This is truly the reason why this marriage has been successful!
Hmm. - Are you really OK with this?
Why wouldn't I be OK? But will this space be enough for you?
Oh God! The milk has boiled over!
Amazing timing! A golden coincidence!
Hello!
Hi. - Hello.
Sorry... I wasn't...
No, it's alright.
Have you had dinner?
No, we were about to order food.
Great! Then don't place the order. - Huh?
Come, have dinner at our place. It's our house-warming party today.
No, you guys go ahead. - No! Please do come.
Actually we wanted to invite you.
But we hadn't exchanged numbers. So, we didn't know how invite you.
Look, he'll sleep now. He's very sleepy.
Then let's chat over dinner. Right? - Yes. Please come.
OK. We'll keep our stuff and come. - Come soon. We're waiting.
Yes, coming.
He's asleep. Finally we'll have an hour of peace.
Why didn't you start? Please help yourselves. I'm very hungry.
Yes, yes, yes! - Actually, may I ask something?
I've been meaning to ask for a while now.
What about your other guests?
Other guests? What do you mean?
Well... it's a house-warming party... So, where are the other guests?
Oh,no, no. We didn't have a big plan.
We were going to celebrate by ourselves. Now we'll do it with you.
We wanted the first dinner in this house to be home-cooked.
So, we cooked.
All our friends are in IT. So, meeting on a weekday is difficult.
But we wanted to celebrate.
So, here we are.
Celebrating with you guys.
Thank you! - Yes.
Thank you.
Come on. Let's start. - Yes.
Yes, you'll get a treat too.
I'll be back.
You guys begin.
Put that phone aside.
Madam, you're no longer a corporate slave, but I still am.
I'm sending tomorrow's meeting's reminders to everybody.
Swapnil and Gauri are so amazing!
They're so secure!
Just the two of them were partying!
Just them!
No doubt they're perfect.
By the way, the four of them were going to party.
Don't forget Revan and Tagya!
Put that phone away! - Stop... Oh God!!
You are so fond of doing things right under my nose, aren't you?
You smashed my nose!
You're always turning up your nose at things. It has become weak now!
Due to this new business, your enthusiasm is increasing by the minute!
Pathetic!
Not at all!
Pathetic! Pathetic! Pathetic! - Stop! No! Don't!
