[TV reporter] Will malpractices and corruption
take down Ms. Priyamvada Thakur's reign?
We need a young leader who has a clean image.
- Hi, beggar! - [Ricky] Hi!
- Help The Homeless? - Yes.
I've spotted some homeless people and I'd like to help them.
[Screaming]
[Tanya] I think I'm being kidnapped.
No!
My name is Priyamvada Thakur.
And you, Tanya, are my only granddaughter.
Okay.
You will become the next Prime Minister of the country.
[Chuckles]
Did you smoke Ricky's doobie?
#PMOIndia.
[TV reporter] The Swatantrata Party representative from Sumerpur is...
Ms. Tanya Thakur.
Yes!
[Title Montage]
[TV reporter] This is my show! This is my country!
Jai Hind! I'm very, very angry!
Because Tanya Thakur, a 25-year-old girl
has come to India for the first time and wants to be the PM here.
Tanya Thakur, let's look at your profiles.
You are an Indian citizen based in London.
What is in your profile that qualifies you to be the next PM?
Tell me, right now.
Well, both my profiles are good.
But I think I prefer the right.
- [Priyamvada giggling] - Ms. Tanya Thakur, answer us.
You have no experience in politics.
Yet you feel that you can win the by-elections of the country.
By-elections?
More like, Hi-elections.
This is my first time. I'm like an election virgin.
Your cuteness won't affect me, at least.
Tell me, if you win the elections through your grandma's seat,
what will be the first step that you will take?
When the media asks you what your first step will be when you are the PM,
what will you say?
[Tanya] This one.
[Exhales]
Because the nail paint on the other leg is chipped.
No.
You will say that you will bring black money back.
Say it.
I will bring black money back and eradicate corruption.
Our politicians have been promising
and trying to bring it back, for 70 years.
You tell me, how will you bring black money back?
- In an aeroplane! Duh! - What?
Ma'am, if this girl becomes the PM for six months,
people will say that if the good days are such
then the old bad days were fine for them.
This is not a joke, Tanya Thakur.
This is my show! This is not a joke.
Does he have a memory problem?
[Softly] Why does he repeat the same thing every time?
[Man] I dare you to say that again.
I double, triple dare you to say that again, Tanya Thakur.
What are you? Like five?
Are we done here? Shall we have a morning selfie?
[Cat meows]
[Clicks]
[Woman VO] This is smooth!
[Woman] I have heard that you'll be fighting elections from Sumerpur.
Are you prepared?
[Tanya] Like, totally!
I have even practiced my hand wave.
See.
[Laughing]
Fantastic!
You know, even if you lose the elections
your job as a fashion blogger will always be yours.
Oh! You guys are so sweet!
I'm going to miss you guys!
All the best, Tanya. Keep uploading photos on Insta and keep in touch.
Okay, Bn. Muah!
- Bn? - Bye now.
Bye now!
Okay, bye.
[Ricky] Boss, how long to reach Sumerpur?
Sir, it will take four hours.
Four hours? Oh, God!
But, you guys
[Ricky] Okay!
Driver, music.
[Music playing]
Yes!
[Ashok] Ma'am, it's crucial for Tanya to win the by-elections.
Because if she doesn't get elected
she won't be able to fulfill the criteria of being a Prime Minister.
[Priyamvada] Don't worry, Ashok.
Even if we have a statue fighting elections from Sumerpur
that will also win.
[Rooster Crows]
As you all know, this is Ms. Aruna.
She is a member of Ms. Priyamvada's party
and has been with our village for 10 years.
And today, she has come here especially
from Delhi to introduce Ms. Tanya.
Thank you, Chieftain.
Ms. Aruna, but why Ms. Tanya? Why not someone like you?
Perhaps, because I don't have the name 'Thakur' with me.
Anyway, you all may openly speak to Ms. Tanya about your problems.
All your problems will be Tanya's responsibility.
- [Car honking] - [Aruna] Ms. Tanya has arrived.
- Tanya Thakur! - May she live long!
[Applauding]
Whoa!
What...
[Ricky] Oh, my God!
Ricks! Ricks, check out her jewellery.
[Screams]
- This is beautiful. - Thank you.
- Got it! - Did you get it?
Cool.
[Girls giggling]
[Meera] Selfie cool!
[Tanya and Meera giggling]
Meera...
He is the Chieftain of this village. Greet him.
- Chieftain? - Yes.
You mean, he got knighted?
[Tanya and Meera laughing hysterically]
So...
Chieftain.
You know, they call me the queen.
And I could knight you tonight.
[Laughing]
She's kidding. She's kidding!
She was kidding.
It's a joke.
- Behave yourself, Tanya. - Okay. Okay, now.
Okay.
Okay. Hold my phone.
[Woman VO] All right!
- Tanya Thakur! - May she live long!
[Vomits]
[Camera shutter clicks]
[Song playing]
[Knocking at the door]
"The dumbest PM candidate... ever!"
Argh!
What the F! You know, this is why I don't read newspapers.
Only Cosmo!
Then you must start reading it, Tanya.
What if you become the Prime Minister tomorrow?
Look at this.
Move this. Hear this.
"Tanya Thakur's heart is in the right place."
[Meera clapping and laughing]
Someone likes you. You're not that bad.
[All giggling]
Can't you two be quiet for some time?
Tanya needs to work on her speech.
Take this.
Begin.
Okay.
"Brothers and ladies..."
- It's sisters. - Sisters.
'I never stayed in India.'
- 'But peep inside me.' - [Aruna] Yes.
Peep inside me?
Meaning what? Like look at my b***s?
[Ricky] What?
This is not the way to win elections, Ms. Aruna.
This is a political language which will...
Oh, my God! Political language?
After your thorough training, even I've learnt it, Ms. Aruna.
Now, I use that even for all my Facebook friends.
[Yawning]
[Applauding]
[Tanya] Is it over?
Brothers and sisters...
[Applauding]
Today, I have brought a huge a*s in front of you.
[All laughing]
I never stayed in India. But peep inside me.
You will find an Indian in me.
[All laughing]
[Tanya crying]
Nobody loves me! Everybody hates me here.
Dear, politics is not meant for people like us.
It's for goons like your grandma.
Look, manage a few more days.
Then you should return to London with the first flight you get.
Till that time, think of it as a holiday.
A holiday? This place suckity sucks, Mom!
I wonder why it's called Sumerpur. It should have been Summer-pur.
It's so hot here! It's like being in a sauna, but all the time.
[Cell phone ringing]
Natasha's calling. Oh, I'll call you back. Bn.
[Sniffs]
- Hello. - [Natasha] Tanya!
The picture that you uploaded on your Instagram account of
a tribal woman with jewellery...
Yeah!
We are getting a lot of inquiries for that.
And I'm thinking,
why don't we do a fashion show to exhibit the jewellery?
[Dings]
Fashion show?
Yeah.
Of course!
Great! Do you have any place in mind?
Where else but Sumerpur?
Uh, you mean, the village Sumerpur?
Uh-hmm.
You'll love it, Natasha. It's a gorgeous place.
Very exotic, very sunny.
- Perfect for a tan! - Fantastic.
I will send buyers
and you start the arrangements for the fashion show.
Done!
[Chuckles]
[Song playing]
Fashion show?
You mean, where girls wear short clothes and do a catwalk?
Sort of.
Kind of.
So, you mean, even foreigners will participate in this show?
No, Mr. Chieftain. The models will be from here.
The women of the village.
Women of this village will wear short clothes before everyone?
Are you out of your mind?
No, Mr. Chieftain. The women won't wear any clothes.
What?
I mean, they will wear their own clothes.
Along with their best jewellery.
People from foreign countries will come, buy the jewellery
you all will make money and all your problems will be solved.
- Money? - Yes.
So, gentlemen, what do you think?
Do you agree to Ms. Tanya?
- If you agree, we will agree too. - Yes, that's right.
- Yes. - Fine.
[Song continues]
Tanya, you have gone there to fight elections.
Not for a fashion show.
Please, for God's sake, go out and promote yourself.
Grandma, everybody hates me here.
Why should I go out and get tanned unnecessarily?
- [Priyamvada] What? - Let's go.
Okay. Got to go. Ramp's ready.
Oh, God!
If Tanya loses, we lose the power.
[Song playing]
[Applauding]
And that's for you.
That's for you.
Well done.
Thank you!
Ms. Aruna, why is everyone being so sentimental?
Politicians, so far, have only made promises.
You're the first one who gave them jobs.
And paid them fully.
Perhaps, politicians didn't have your common sense.
You know what is more important than common sense sometimes, Aruna?
What?
Fashion sense.
[Both giggling]
- Shall we? - Sure.
Ricks!
Have you seen Meera? I can't find her anywhere.
Tanzie, I think, I had seen her on that side.
- Meera! - [Ricky] Meera!
- Meera! - [Ricky] Where is she?
Oh!
[Tanya] I see her.
Come here.
Someone got lucky.
I did not see that one coming.
Oh! Wow!
You have to tell me all about it in the car.
[Engine starts]
[Song playing]
[TV reporter] According to the exit poll,
Tanya Thakur will lose from Sumerpur.
It is said that her modern-style behaviour
is unacceptable by people.
In a few hours, we will return with the results of the votes.
[Woman] All business class passengers and passengers
travelling with infants or young children
to come forward to the boarding...
Tanzie, London's flight is delayed by an hour.
Let us wait till we hear the results at least.
Please no!
The black nail paint for elections is so ew!
That's sad.
- But you know, guys? - [Ricky] Hmm?
At least we're returning with so many memories.
[Chuckling]
[Cell phones beeps]
Is your phone buzzing a lot?
Why are people tagging me on Twitter?
You're trending all over India.
[Footsteps approaching]
Rick, what's going on?
Tanya, you actually won the elections.
[TV reporter] And India has finally taken a historic decision.
A 25-year-old girl Ms. Tanya Thakur
has become the Prime Minister of the country.
Holy f**k!
[Applauding]
Oh, my God!
Ma'am, you're Tanya Thakur, right?
Our new PM?
Uh...
Yeah! This is my airport look.
[Clicks]
A historic decision.
Tanya Thakur, who is only 25 years old...
India has chosen the next Prime Minister.
And it's 25 year old Tanya Thakur.
- Tanya Thakur. - Tanya Thakur.
[Theme music playing] a Thakur.
