My son, if you could sit for some time...
...Sohail will be here in no time.
Not a problem, aunty . I will meet him at the shop.
I just wanted to meet you so I thought I would come around.
I am glad you did.
I will leave, then.
Greetings, sister. - Greetings.
I am Nusrat. We spoke on the phone.
Yes, Mrs. Nusrat! Please come in.
Greetings.
Do come in.
Come in, dear. Good girl.
Come this way. Come, dear.
Aunty, I shall take my leave.
I can't come personally for Sobiya's wedding.
But do invite me if Sohail is getting married.
Do you think we won't call you if Sohail is getting married?
You must come. - Of course.
Now, travel safe and have a good journey.
What time is the flight? - It's at 3 A.M .
I have lots of time, yet.
I have packed. I just thought of meeting friends.
That's good, but the formality with the gifts...
...it's not needed.
Don't embarrass me by mentioning the gifts.
I am your son like Sohail, right?
You certainly are.
Travel safe and God be with you.
Do send word when you reach.
Okay? - Goodbye.
Goodbye. - Goodbye.
Come on in, sister.
Come in, this way. Come, dear. This way.
I have been calling Yasmin constantly.
She promised but doesn't come.
I told her to visit you.
Didn't she come? - Please speak to her.
Let me call her.
Sobiya.
Salma, make the call.
On your cell. - Yes, dear. You do it.
I can't get through.
Try again after five or ten minutes.
She is very busy and you have to keep calling till you get to her.
Tell me, the boy we met at the door...
...who is he?
He is my son's very old friend.
He lives in the US.
What does he do there?
He works in a very big company. He is a computer engineer.
They are good people and very wealthy.
They have a house in Defence.
He is a very good boy.
He is married?
No, he is not married yet but I think his parents are...
...looking for girls for him.
He is not engaged, yet.
Why don't you speak to them for me?
Speak to his parents for my Shabana and Shazia.
Shabana must be approximately his age.
She is almost like an expat with her complexion.
That is possible. Let me speak to them.
Yes, let's talk. This may work out right here.
Don't worry.
Daughters belong to everyone.
Whoever gets him, it would be good. He's a good boy.
Yes, since these marriage brokers...
...take the payment...
...and never get anything done.
I agree, you are right.
I am so grateful...
...that my elder daughter married in time.
The younger one is also married, right?
Yes, she is in London.
The entire family is out there.
What does the boy do? - He drives a cab.
He really earns a lot.
They are good people.
I think I have seen you somewhere.
Perhaps in the college.
I baked these. Please try them.
No. - You try them.
Take them. She keeps baking something or the other.
She ruins my family budget that way.
My gums are swollen...
...with sweets, but I will eat if you insist.
Here, dip them into the tea. Go on.
Nausheen.
Why are you in a bad mood?
Not at all.
I felt it was.
You are wrong.
I live with four women in one house.
I read a woman's mind like nobody else.
You are in a bad mood. - No, I am not.
I am a bit upset.
Oh! I see.
The boy's family came to meet you the other day, right?
They must have rejected you.
It's okay. Don't feel bad about it.
My sisters have had that experience many times.
Don't feel upset. Cheer up.
They didn't reject me.
They like me.
Sister, it's your turn to visit my place now.
You must come over and bring your daughter too.
I will come and bring her along too.
And I requested you to do something...
...please do it.
Don't worry.
I will call Yasmin in the morning to remind her.
No! Don't get Yasmin involved.
I meant the other request.
About your son's friend. Do that.
Don't worry. That will be done too.
Here's Sohail. He's home.
Hello. - Greetings.
I have to say your son set up the UPS...
...and since that day...
...it hasn't broken down even once.
Wonderful! My son is talented.
The customer who gets anything done by him won't go elsewhere.
That's so great!
Okay, sister, I'll leave now.
I will wait for you to call.
Of course. - Okay, goodbye.
Sohail, escort them out of the lane.
It's almost evening, son.
Give me that.
Go on.
Oh, no! - This way.
I can't even tell these kids to do anything. Keep that inside.
My son, I am so happy to meet you and your sister.
Yes, aunt. - That friend of yours who'd come, Nofil...
...your mother said, he's single.
I told her that...
...she should talk to his mother for my elder daughter's alliance.
She said, I should talk to you...
...so you could speak to his mother for this alliance.
So could you just cast around and find out.
Shabana is your sister, anyway.
I will do it, aunt. - Isn't she your sister?
Yes, she is your sister.
I don't know if he will talk or not.
Mom, I will not go with you anywhere, henceforth.
Why? What is wrong with you?
You don't care for your image or the image of anyone else.
You just go and get started anywhere you go.
What did I do?
I had to go and find out about the marriage broker. You know it.
When you'd spoken to the boy' mother...
...why did you tell the UPS guy...
...to speak to his friend's parents for your daughter?
What did I do wrong, if I said it?
It's such a good alliance.
These days we have to ask for an alliance.
Which alliance is she speaking of?
I am sure it will work out this time.
Where is mom?
What should I do about you? - Why?
What did I do now? - Why did you talk about Nofil?
I didn't speak about him. She spoke about him.
He was leaving and they saw him.
She said, speak to his parents for my daughter. That's it.
Wonderful! She said and you agreed and you...
Why did you tell her about me?
So what is the big deal?
If you can't talk to his parents...
...speak to him.
He has to marry someone, right?
He has to marry some girl.
So what if we suggest a nice girl?
Anyway, it's true.
Her younger daughter...
...seemed lovely to me.
The elder girls must be nice too, I am sure.
For God's sake, mom, don't be a lady who makes alliances.
Who will Nofil marry or not...
...is his business. We won't interfere.
Do you know his parents?
I am speaking to you. Do you know his parents?
They would never marry Someone from this locality!
I never thought of that.
But, he's a good boy.
That's why I said it.
Now since you say so we won't discuss it, okay?
Mom, you don't get it. You won't get it. What do I do?
What is wrong with him?
Why is he so irritable?
He was never like this.
Something has happened to him since a month and a half.
Mom, did you notice something?
That lady who came with her daughter?
I told you a girl called, right?
She said, she wants to talk to Sohail.
She may have wanted a UPS. - I think, it's her.
Mom, pay attention. Why did Sohail get angry?
Because you said the younger daughter is lovely.
Sohail must have thought, they might get her married to Nofil.
So what if they do?
I think, that lady came to see our house.
She brought her younger daughter along.
The strange thing is both of them didn't look at each other.
I hate it when you talk so vaguely!
Speak to me clearly. - There is something going on.
Don't tell Sohail I was talking about that.
I didn't say anything.
I have seen this in dramas, it happens for real.
Those dramas and those cooking shows of yours!
I swear to you I will sell that TV.
These are excuses girls make.
This is what they say to put you under pressure.
They say, we have received a proposal.
Or they say, the boy's family likes me.
Since you're saying that, tell me...
...why is Nausheen telling you about this now?
Why are you telling us this?
Well, it's nothing. I just mentioned it casually.
Is she hoping for something from you?
She has been since so long.
The way she helps him extra with all the work...
...is for a reason. - She is right.
Did you promise her something?
No, mom. Why would I promise her anything?
Besides, I will have an arranged marriage.
I won't marry for love.
Thank God for that.
My son is still in my control!
There is no match between Nausheen and Salauddin.
There is no match.
She looks older than me by a year!
Of course she does. - And what kind of family is this?
We have only one brother.
Won't we think even once while getting him married?
I don't plan to marry her anyway.
She is not even my ideal.
Wait and see. She will come and tell you soon...
...that they said no to the boy.
Since he is flawed in this way and that.
Is it? - Yes.
She is right. I think...
...girls and their mothers these days...
...chase after...
...salaried and well bred young men...
...like my boy here.
They are like hungry fish...
...that go after the sweet, floating shrimp...
...and devour it.
You are so right. - Isn't that so? - Yes.
High five!
As if!
'I never imagined the prince of my dreams...
...would be so close to my house.'
'So handsome! So pleasant.'
'He had such a nice way of speaking.'
'Just like my ideal.'
'So does that mean...
...he comes to the locality?'
'But he ignored me even though he saw me.'
'What do I have anyway?'
'Yes, if it had been Natalia instead of me...
...my fake love story may have come true.'
'Whatever she wears...
...looks so good on her.'
'The one who marries her...
...would be really lucky.'
'She is the ideal girl.'
'Beautiful, upper class.'
'The kind of girl who lives in dreams and imagination.'
'And here I am scrolling through her photos.'
'She probably doesn't know there is a boy...
...named Sohail who loves her so much.'
'If it were...
...Nofil who sent her a friend request? Then what?'
Greetings. Here you are.
Wonderful!
Is she the girl you want an alliance for?
No, she is younger.
She is still in college.
I see. These days, parents find girls alliances...
...while they are studying.
And Salma is certainly grown up.
Yes, but we want the two elder girls to get married first.
She is still studying.
Okay, fine. As you wish. It's my job to show you proposals.
I will keep doing so.
Is there a proposal?
Yes, of course. Why not? There are many proposals.
I have a lot of them.
What kind of proposals do you want?
I have 4 major proposals.
There are 2 captains, there are four army officers.
And there are proposals for 10 lecturers, too.
The teachers and lecturers won't do.
Why not? Don't both your daughters teach?
Yes, they do.
But a man's profession must be different.
Okay, fine. Let me show you proposals for an officer.
Yes. One daughter needs a very well educated officer.
For the other someone from the US...
...or from the UK.
Someone from abroad.
I see. What do the girls look like?
Shabana is so lovely and delicate!
She is fair skinned and has fine eyes and bone structure.
She is so tall!
Amazing.
They aren't too old.
The elder one is at the most...
...26 or 27.
And the younger one is 24 or 25.
Okay, that is very good.
These days the boy's family wants something like this.
The girl should be highly educated and very young.
My elder daughter got an MA degree at a very young age.
Let me call her.
Shabana!
Mom is calling you.
Let me go and present myself like a showpiece.
Then I will come back and cook bitter gourd with mince.
I keep telling you not to...
...come out when someone comes for an alliance.
You still came out brazenly with the tea.
I had no idea I would be blamed for that too.
Shazia told me to get the tea.
It doesn't matter who told you. It was wrong.
I told you once, you won't come out. That's it!
Whether Shazia tells you or Shabana.
Two of them can't get married and if you get noticed...
...you are useless and foolish!
'What is sense supposed to be, anyway?'
'The world seems to have it, but not me.'
I never have time to eat lunch on time.
It's always either 3 or 4 pm.
Thank God. We managed it together.
The okra with mutton was really good.
You wanted to eat it for so long.
I figured I would get you some.
Right. By the way...
...you know what I will miss most when you leave?
What will you miss? - Your packed lunch.
But I am not going anywhere.
But the boy's family came to choose you, right?
Obviously you will get engaged and then married.
You can't work after getting married.
You're totally senseless.
I won't quit working.
It's my decision.
I was certain you would not come this time.
I want to clear all your misconceptions about me.
This is something rather problematic you've told me.
This and that. - What do we do now?
What can the Ad-hoc folks do?
We will protest before all.
We will go on a hunger strike.
Everything else is fine.
But, how will you go on a hunger strike?
I didn't call you here to mock me.
I called you so we can find a solution.
Listen, I can't figure a way out.
Apart from the fact that you quit working. - Quit working? - Yes.
I get paid 40,000 and you want me to quit?
So what if it is Ad-hoc?
Will aunt allow you to go on a protest?
She will have to permit it.
Whether I keep my job or not...
...the association will boycott me.
I can try finding work for you elsewhere if you say so.
Do it. If you can find me a better package anywhere, please do so.
I am sick of giving out applications.
The government doesn't confirm, my bad luck.
Now, listen. You must take me...
...for the procession. We will have to sit for about 6 to 8 hours.
Salauddin won't take me.
Forget about 6 to 8 hours.
I will sit with you for life, if you say so.
Okay, listen to me. - Yes.
You need to organise food.
Won't you go on a hunger strike?
Yes, so what if it's a hunger strike?
It's not as if one has to starve.
In our family girls...
...don't go for processions, protests and hunger strikes.
What do girls in your family do apart from...
...getting married, Tanzeel ur Rehman Siddiqui?
Forget the girls, what do the boys in your family do?
Apart from selling mangoes, oranges and bananas?
Selling fruit is not a bad thing.
Don't make me angry now.
You brought cold samosas, too.
Let me make some tea.
Natalia has invited you for her brother's wedding.
What? She invited me personally?
Obviously, she said so.
I am not saying it on my own.
I will certainly come.
When is it? - On the 18th.
The events will last a week.
The events will last a week?
What will they do for a week?
You can see for yourself when you come there.
I can't come every day.
Mom won't allow me.
I will go for an entire week.
Uncle said it specially.
The arrangement is going to be a long one.
I wish I could stay.
So tell me one thing. - Yes?
Is Natalia in love with anyone?
You always ask me that.
Is Natalia in love?
Even if she is in love why would she tell me?
You tell her. You made your own profile.
Any result, any proposal, any meeting? Did it happen?
I take contracts for providing generators at weddings and events.
The events will last for a week.
I am running out of generators.
I thought, you could help me out.
I have 2 generators. - Okay.
Okay, we can do this. Where is the event?
In Defence. They arranged for...
...the wedding at their home.
It's on the 18th.
I wanted you to go recce it for me, before that.
We can sit and decide the percentage.
Yes. That's good.
I would like to get some money.
Work is too slow. I don't know what to do.
No, the money will come in. - Here you are.
You know he doesn't have cold drinks.
You bring it every time! Are you insane?
He knows that I don't drink it.
He is naughty and pranks me.
Let me get you some tea. - No.
No, I don't drink it.
I will tell you about the percentage, then. - Okay.
Okay? I will contact you. - Okay.
Okay, bye. - Okay.
What do I do with this?
Do what you always do.
What will you do?
What?
He's the one!
How could I find him so easily?
What happened to this?
Mom. My computer is on the fritz.
Get it repaired.
Thank God it's on the fritz. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
The computer was the only thing I had.
Mom. Listen to me.
Mom! Please get my computer repaired.
Okay, I will tell Salauddin when he comes home at night.
Should I stay put till it is night?
Salma, learn to be patient.
Your father and brother are out.
Who do I get hold of?
Mom! That UPS guy, Sohail...
...he has a computer shop too. Ask him to repair it.
Of course, I had to talk to his mother about that boy too.
Let me get the phone. Speak about the...
...alliance and get my computer repaired.
Oh God! Give me some good news.
"Folk song."
Son, since you're back eat your food.
No, I got all your things which...
...someone must be waiting for. I am leaving with the stuff, okay?
It's always like this.
Sobiya! Come and take care of this stuff. Put it into the fridge.
Hello? - Hello.
This is Nusrat speaking.
Greetings, sister! How are you?
I am fine. You tell me, how are you?
I am fine by the grace of God.
Did Yasmin come to meet you?
She did come over.
But she didn't bring any proposals. She just ate patties and left.
What? She said, she would bring over proposals for you.
Did you find out about that boy?
Which boy? - Your son's friend.
Yes, I did tell Sohail.
He is speaking to the family so let's see.
I will let you know when they respond.
Tell Sohail to keep after him.
I will do that. Don't worry. - What are you doing?
Oh and there's another thing.
Our computer is not working.
Could you ask Sohail to come and see it?
I can tell him, since he is at home.
I will ask him to drop by your place, so don't worry.
Allow me to take my leave now.
I am fixing up dinner.
Of course. Do visit me.
Come over and have tea and pattice.
I will certainly come and I will bring pattice for you.
Okay? God bless you.
Okay. Goodbye.
What did she say?
She said, they are speaking to the boy's family. It's ongoing.
Mom, about the computer, not the alliance. What did she say?
She will send him at once.
Sohail! - Yes?
Please stop by at Salauddin's place. - Why?
His mom called. Their computer is not working.
What can I do about that, mom?
What do you mean? That's what you do!
Just go over. In fact, visit them right now.
This is bad! We are neighbours.
I will go over. I bet the computer is outdated...
...and they wanted me to buy it. Now they want me to repair it.
I will go.
Hello, I am Sohail.
There is a computer in your house. - Yes. Do come in.
I don't know what is wrong.
Only I use it.
It hanged suddenly.
I think, Windows has been wiped out.
It will have to be reinstalled.
Do it, then.
How can I do it at once? This...
...will have to be taken to the shop. - Then, take it.
Okay. I will take it then.
Will it get repaired?
Yes, it will. Amen.
Let me check a few things. Greetings, aunt.
Greetings.
Did you give him some juice?
No aunt, not needed. I came for the computer. I will tell Salauddin.
There is no way I will let you go without drinking something.
Bring it!
Aunt, I am already late, please let me go.
How can I let you go just like that?
Bring it. - I won't drink the juice, aunt.
Have tea, then.
I will bring it.
Mom, you are so naive.
You sent him to their place.
So what? Their computer is on the fritz.
All excuses.
Don't drive me crazy by saying these things.
I am sure.
They have targeted Sohail.
We aren't getting him married.
Why should we worry? It doesn't matter.
It is my job to warn you.
Your wish. Keep sending your son there. What do I care?
I have to thank you, son.
No, it's not a big deal.
Sallu said so, so I can't say no.
We are neighbours, too.
Yes, of course.
Neighbours have a big claim on each other.
Yes. - When will this get repaired?
It will be done by today evening.
Then, you have to handle this matter.
Okay, aunt.
Repair it by the evening. - Okay.
When will you know?
Aunt, let me go. I will do it by evening.
By evening? So that's fine.
Can't it be done before?
The Windows is corrupted.
It takes 2 hours to install and there is no electricity.
I promise it will be done by evening.
Listen, you give us your phone number.
Why do you want it? Sallu has my number, take it from him.
No, please give it anyway.
Yes, give it. Give it!
0336...
...334803.
Aunt, I am getting late, so please let me go.
Tell me, when you go to meet Nofil in the evening...
...will you speak to him or to his family?
What about? - About the alliance.
Mom!
Aunt, I am speaking to you about the computer!
He is talking about the computer.
I was talking about an alliance. - What is she talking about?
Your mom told us...
...you will go and speak to Nofil.
And he will speak to his family...
...and then they will tell us.
Did you tell them?
