Hello!
Actually..
Maya sent these for you.
Take it
Oh! Thank you.
You were coming from downstairs. No one saw them in your hands, right?
No one actually saw, but still I was wondering.
How do they even let you eat all this?
It’s the only thing I actually enjoy eating.
Yes
Maya was also saying the same thing
At first, I said no. How would I even manage to take it?
But I still brought it.
It’s a good thing
she didn’t listen to you.
Will you try?
No way! I think I am good
Anyways, why did you call me?
Maya is so sweet for sending you fries
she should’ve sent poison instead!
Why?
What do you mean by why?
You literally forced me to come home.
Mom’s still asleep, she’s not even up yet.
She probably won’t wake up before evening anyway.
What shall I do at home now, tell me
Actually..
Wali, actually there is something
Please dear
Don't discuss it with Wali
Tell me something..
Why are you after Maya?
You have other class mates too
First thing, she is not annoying
and..
Secondly..
I think, I am quite attracted to her
Its all I can say
Maybe tone down your charm a little
there’s a chance she might not even ask about you.
Not everyone is like you
She loves my company and I think..
She is quite attracted as well
At least ask her once if she’s even attracted to you,
there might be someone else in her life.
I am Wali
But of course, you wouldn’t understand...
Because understanding perfection is a bit difficult so..
Anyway, this is just not something you're capable of handling.
Yes
What do you mean?
I mean, I have asked her
And, there isn't any such thing
Good for you!
Thank you!
Do you want to eat chips?
No
Do you have any work?
No
Then go away from here
Get lost!
Did something happen?
What do you mean?
So happy these days? Usually, it’s not like this.
And two or three days straight like this? Never happens.
Because I’m able to breathe, after so many days
What do you mean by that?
I am free!
At least until Waleed is gone.
Otherwise, something or the other was always going on.
Yes, I totally agree
I’m glad this whole marriage thing has stalled for a few days.
Same!
Okay, let me study now
Oh, Mishi, we’re out of water. Please get some again.
I am very busy
right now
Not busy, but you are slacker
Lazy woman!
She doesn't even let me sleep
It’s been a whole month,
but this small job just doesn’t get done by him
Did it come off again?
Yes,
your father can’t even bring the right screw to fix it.
Give it to me, I’ll do it.
Leave it for now and tell me, how did you come home?
I came by van. Why?
You're early, that's why I'm asking.
I didn't have class. Why are you asking?
Give it to me
I am giving it, wait a minute..
Listen to me first
Look, now please pay a little attention, okay?
You’ve started going to university.
Please take care of the little things,
like coming and going safely
Okay
Somehow its done
Do fix that one as well, as its falling out
Okay, move aside. Let me do it
Close this
These laddus made with panjeri
your dad used to love them so much when he was little,
I can’t even explain.
They’re usually eaten in winter
and are really good for health.
Eat them quickly... Granny..
What are you making?
Nothing! Just like that
Carrot pudding!
Will I get some?
I know you really want to have it, right?
Well, Granny, you make such good carrot pudding.
How could I resist?
Yes
Its not for you. Not for you!
This is for
my small Anya
She doesn’t eat stuff like this there, right?
See..
Here you go, dear. Eat this quickly, I still have to offer my prayers.
Come on, hurry up!
These laddus made with panjeri,
your dad used to love them so much, it was beyond limits.
Granny,
you’re so mad at this bread maker like it’s grandpa’s second wife.
Honestly, I wouldn’t be this upset even with that
Because you’d probably kill her!
Stop your non-sense!
Eat, come on
Hey, one minute! What are you doing?
It has animal-based fat in it, so it’s not good for her.
Nothing happens. What do you all think? This is what made you all grow big!
Nothing happens, my child, eat up, it’s really tasty.
I made it especially for you.
I added khoya, nuts, everything.
This isn’t like those foreign sweets made with fake ghee.
This one is made with authentic desi ghee.
You know, brother Jameel went to his fields,
so I got it from him there.
Eat it, my child
Don't eat it
You will get a good beating from me
I know
Look at him.. He wants it!
What do you think? I haven't made it for you?
What do you think? Don't eat, it has taste of death!
I won't give you At once!
What?
Naughty!
I have made some for you as well,
just wait
You cannot wait at all!
You are also my grand son
What do you think?
I’m going to make sweets and not share them with you?
Come on, have some
Very good, come on
Hey!
Naughty! He took her away
Hey Amal!
I've been calling you since so long, where are you?
Maya’s called me three times already. Come on, hurry!
Grandpa
We have to change these bowls
They are quite old now
Yes yes
Hey Grandpa!
Good morning! Good to see you? How are you? Fine?
Absolutely fine!
Actually, we go to pick up her friend.
Obvioulsy..
Since we’ll be late otherwise, we have to leave an hour early.
So, we’re just going there. She’s a really nice girl,
I’ll introduce her to you sometime.
You are also a very nice guy, right?
See,
you didn’t even want to study medicine before,
and now you’re going to pick up a student from there an hour early.
That’s how you should help out,
being useful to people.
Absolutely! Come on, I will do it
Let me bring my bag! Give it to me
Okay
I am going outside, waiting for you
Come quickly, OK?
Bye!
I am leaving, grandpa Okay
You are so rude!
Yes I am
What?
I am upset with you
So, what should I do?
Infact, I am upset because of you
What did I do?
You were the one who went up to grandpa and started talking about Maya,
so what was I supposed to do?
At least you could’ve stood up for me and said,
“She’s my friend,” and that would’ve ended it.
You had said it
At least, you could have supported me
Do you need any support?
You are so annoying
Thank you!
It was a mistake to ask for help from her.
She probably wants me to get rejected by Maya.
Maya's rejection?
Yes, so?
Are you talking to me now?
First of all tell me,
rejection on what?
About exams
Obviously! I'll ask her out,
that's why I am saying
Wali..
Be quiet now..
We are going to pick up Maya now, so don't say anything inappropriate in front of her
Understand?
Okay?
Sameer, Sameer..
What is it?
You are Anya's cousin, right?
No, why?
Actually Maam is calling you
Did something happen?
Just come
I am not that Sameer, talk with respect
So, who are you?
You just tell me, whatever happened with her.
I'll inform the other Sameer
Oh no! Actually, Anya has fainted.
Where should I find him now?
Maam will scold me
Yes, she will
She will scold me too
Arrgh!
Hi!
Hello!
How are you?
Fine
Is your class over?
Yes, today was the lab session, and it just finished.
Okay
And Wali?
Wali went downstairs. I think the guard called him,
He was probably saying something about the car, so he went to check.
OK
Shall I ask you something, Maya?
Yes, ask me
What is your engagement's scene?
What do you mean?
Its the same, as I had told you
I’m under family pressure for an engagement right now,
but once I graduate
I’ll break it off.
And until then, will everything goes like this?
Yes
Did you tell Wali anything about this?
When there’s nothing to tell, what can I say?
Why?
No.. Nothing special
He is giving you a little more attention,
so I was just concerned
Concerned?
For what?
Actually..
Wali's personality is quite unpredictable
He had a girlfriend in the US
Some foreigner girlfriend
they broke up
and..
He got over it very quickly also
I just don’t want you to get hurt because of his immaturity.
Don't worry, Amal
Nothing as such will happen. Besides,
Wali and I are just friends
Don't over think it, OK?
If you had told me earlier, I would’ve stopped mom.
Dad, I didn’t know.
You know granny keeps giving her something or other sometimes,
what can I do?
Mom is also doing experiments on Anya like that.
That’s not right.
I even took the laddus away.
But maybe before I came,
that poor girl had taken a bite or two,
and that’s why this happened.
Aunty will get upset now.
We'll see
Excuse me!
Yes sir
Can I take her?
Yes
Thank you!
Wali, you have miss the cut
I did it intentionally
Why?
I am kidnapping you, my choice!
Very funny! Where are we going?
To the hell!
We are going to the mall
Why?
Actually, I want to buy a gift for Maya. That’s why.
Are you really serious?
Do you think, I will joke about it?
Wali..
Listen!
I think you should not do this to yourself
You are wasting your time
Means?
I mean..
I don't know the meaning..
Don't do this!
Hey! What happen to her?
Nothing..
Nothing happened, she got unwell at the school
She fainted
She fainted? What happened?
She must have eaten something inappropriate, what else?
Granny, she ate the laddu
I had told you that she cannot eat such things
What happened to her?
JB
Dear..
Annu..
Jb.. Actually.. What happened to her?
She got unwell at the school
She ate some laddu
Maybe,
some laddus were made with ghee and fresh milk
those didn’t suit her.
She must’ve had just a morsel,
how could that possibly make her sick?
Granny, when someone has allergies,
even a single bite can be harmful for them.
Where is Mahnoor?
She has gone somewhere out
The school called sister, but her number was off,
so they called me instead.
Sameer and she go to the same school
Okay, its fine
She has made quite a lot of friends
Get up, dear... She doesn’t even care about her children.
Come, lets go to your room
Come on
Let me make some ORS
Yes yes,
thank you! Come
Come on
What was the need to say that her condition got worse because of my laddu?
They were made of pure ghee
Our kids ate them too,
they never got sick or had any allergies.
Why did you even need to give her the laddu?
They’ve come from abroad…
Laddu, laddu.. Have you seen her condition?
She’s so weak.
How will she ever get healthy if she doesn’t eat proper food?
Her stomach got upset, She fainted and even started vomiting.
Granny didn't know
Be careful
Go now
Hello!
Yes hello!
Where were you?
Yes?
Shopping!
I went to the salon for sometime
Why?
Can’t I go out somewhere now?
Hey, I didn’t say anything like that.
You're always ready to fight, no matter what.
OK listen..
Our Annu is not
feeling well
What happened?
Nothing! I’m sure she must have eaten something inappropriate at school,
and she just started throwing up.
Jahangir, why didn't you call me? You should have told me immediately
How I would have told you?
I’ve called you like two and a half thousand times on your phone!
Check it
The battery is dead
Yes
Then what did the doctor say?
Nothing! The doctor didn’t really say anything,
just wrote down one or two things. Anyway, I’ve already given her
the medicine and all… Where is she right now?
She is much better now, but..
She’s asleep, don’t..
Wake her up and start an interrogation.
I won’t do that, but where is she?
She is downstairs, in Amal's room
What did she eat? She never eats carelessly,
she’s always so careful about what she eats.
She knows about herself
I have no idea
But please, just leave it now
Yes yes
Let her relax
You’re not feeling sleepy?
Are you fine?
Do you need something?
Sure?
Tell me
What happened?
Amal, just think
If I wasn't born
My family would have been so much better.
Why do you think that way?
Mom and Dad fought
because of me.
Wali stuck in problems
Granny tried to help me,
but that also became problematic.
Granny and mom
they both will fights,
its all because of me. I am the problem!
If..
I wasn’t part of this family picture…
It would have been so perfect!
Maybe the situation would have become even more problematic.
You never know
Look..
I understand Anya that right
now you are too stressed
Very much!
But for just a minute...
Try to look at it from a different perspective
See how much everyone cares about you,
how much they love you,
and how much they worry about you.
Yes, their way might be a little different,
but it’s still love
But I am still the problem!
Anya
You are not the problem
You are just different that's it!
Why am I different? Amal,
look at you. You are perfect
And I am not!
I wish..
I wish,
I wasn't like this
Perfect?
Nobody is perfect
Nobody in this world is perfect
Perfection is just an idea
an unrealistic one
Do you know, Anya
When...
When a person is locked in a box,
they try to live up to others’ expectations more than their own.
They don’t really have any other option.
That’s why sometimes they just can’t do anything.
But look at you!
Look at you
You can do everything
You’ve got so much guts that
you can go out with your friends to hang out.
Now look, you felt sick,
you knew you’d have an allergic reaction, but..
Still, you tried a new food item.
After that, you started vomiting.
You hid that from aunty. You went to school,
I think you’re really brave!
You are really brave!
Do you know, Anya
You don't run after perfection
You find your own way
Which is beautiful
Do you understand now?
There’s no use in trying to be like me,
there’s no need for that.
You’re perfectly fine just the way you are
OK?
Amal
What happen?
Come with me
But where?
Come, lets go
Come on
Lets go..
What happened?
Come here
Take this
What's this? Come here
Someone will see from there.
I just brought this
from the cart for you.
What work do you have?
Does it always have to be that I need something from you?
Will you please call Maya and ask her
Please call her over here.
Why?
There’s no electricity at her house right now,
so studying was a bit difficult for her.
So I thought if she studies here, it’d be easier. Plus, we have a test coming up.
Since when you've been thinking about someone like this?
And you want to call Maya here?
See, Maya is a very nice girl?
Wow! Am I a bad guy?
Now what you are or aren’t, I don’t know.
But the situation for girls here is very complicated.
And you…
You could put her in trouble
I am trying to help her,
like a genuine help
So it’s good that she’ll study here. Her phone is about to die too,
so I was thinking she should come here and study.
And what's with you?
Why do you always think about the boys’ scenario?
Because I am practical!
I am not emotional like you
Try to use your brain sometimes!
You should try to use your heart.. Sshh..
Hello!
Hello, Amal!
Yes Maya, tell me
If you don’t mind, can I talk to you about something?
There’s no electricity at my house, and they’re saying it’s going to be gone for a long time.
So, can I come over to your place to prepare for the test?
Yes, sure
Come over
Is she coming?
She is coming
Thank you!
Mom
Yes
Look, the electricity still hasn’t come back.
Should I go to Amal’s house to study?
Dear, it’s not the first time the power’s gone.
Just manage for another hour or so. It’ll come back soon. Just study at home.
Mom, I have a test tomorrow so please
Listen to me
Her house is so far away
The hassle and expense of going back and forth, what about that?
It’s fine, just study at home.
I’m telling you, it won’t be a problem.
Amal said she’s already in my area and can pick me up
Dear, you get only one day off
try staying home.
Your dad will be home by evening.
I really don’t understand what you all keep doing.
Just sit and study at home. Besides...
It’s not really appropriate to go and hang out at someone else’s house like that.
Mom, nothing happens
Amal is my friend
What’s the harm if I go to her house and study for just an hour or two?
No one really thinks that much
And you tell me
What is there in this house that would even make me want to sit here?
You will see, Dad will come home and get upset over something.
Then the whole drama will start.
May I please go? I’ll be back by the evening… Please, please!
Okay go
Thank you!
Listen!
Try to come early
Okay
Hey!
You seem quite happy today
I’m not feeling happy; I’m going to study.
Really!
So, you actually enjoy studying
Its nothing like that
Actually.. The problem is, if I study, there’s an issue,
and if I don’t, there’s still an issue
No no
Come here
Yes
We are so happy
That you have become serious
Please don’t mess up my hair.
Well done!
Thank you!
Here you go
Thank you, Amal
If I hadn’t come here, I probably would have failed tomorrow.
No problem!
Wali was quite worried
about your test
I shouldn’t have told him, right?
But what could I do?
The power went out, so my phone died,
and then I had to tell him.
Hmm..
Hello!
How are you?
I am fine, how are you?
Great!
Will you study?
No, I will eat the cake
Wali
Do you know?
Wali has started studying.
He studies for every test and every exam.
I think that’s really good.
Thank you!
With you?
I mean..
You both must be doing group studies, right?
Wali, have you done this chapter?
Have you listened to Wali’s new song?
In fact, not a new one but old.. 'You are mine'
What, haven’t you listened to it?
Hey, he had written it for his girlfriend.
What was her name?
Umm.. Yes!
Grace.. Her name was Grace
He was in love with her
The poor guy was really heartbroken when those two broke up.
Must have been hard for you
Yes
It really was
You know, when I came here,
things were a bit difficult.
Obviously, I had left everything behind and came here.
But I’m glad I got your support here,
because I wouldn’t have gotten it there.
So, I do get it here. I’m glad!
Did you sing that song, ‘You Are Mine’?
I don’t know which girl you wrote it for now?
He will sing it
Or maybe he already did, but I just don’t remember.
Actually, neither of us is getting any time. Medical is just driving us crazy.
Yes, the studies have made everyone go crazy.
Come on
Start studying
Which chapter it was?
Wait, let me tell you
Move this
Amal..
Yes?
Oh sorry..
Since you wrote the song with so much heart,
it turned out great. That’s why I was humming it.
Who is this girl?
She is Amal's friend
She didn’t have electricity at her place,
so she came here to study.
Why is Wali being so frank with her?
She is Wali's class fellow
Mahnoor, how is Anya feeling now?
She is better, thank God!
Its a good thing
By the way,
Sameer ate all the leftover laddus himself
I hope he wouldn’t get sick.
Which laddu?
The ones mom had made
with desi ghee and panjeri,
and I think they even had desi milk in them.
Since all the kids were eating,
Anya also picked one up and ate it.
Mom
Yes
I want to talk to you
Yes, tell me
Look, when it comes to my kids’ well--
being, please let me handle it.
I know better what they need.
I’ve told you before that Anya has severe allergies and follows a specific diet.
Hmm.. That's why
That young girl’s health is very fragile.
Okay don't argue with me.
When it’s a matter of her life,
I have to say something, Mom.
It’s a life-threatening issue.
And..
You..
Please don’t give her anything without telling me first.
Dear, I don’t need anyone’s permission for this.
Jahangir, come to my room upstairs.
Look, they are my children too
I will use my experience
in raising them
and I will keep using it
whether you like it or not. I’m just letting you know.
Have you called Jahangir here just to complain about me?
Not exactly a complaint, I mean...
What happened?
When it comes to blaming me, you’re always so quick.
But when it’s about covering up for someone else,
you do it so smoothly and quietly,
as if I won’t notice.
Okay fine,
but this is not the right way to talk.
For God sake!
It’s life-threatening, and you know that.
She has serious allergies. She could have died.
She could have been seriously ill!
For God’s sake, if not for me,
then at least take a stand for her. Say something.
Okay fine
We’ve raised kids too
Oh mom..
Just ignore
Nothing happens
Its fine
Sorry
I'll go, see
Hmm..
What was that, Amal?
Which one?
Stop playing around
I am playing around?
Weren’t you going to ask Maya out?
And you still haven’t told her about your ex--
girlfriend, have you?
What do you think, Wali?
Is she an American girl that you think you can just break up with her and she’ll move on?
Your joke could ruin her career,
her life.
Who are you to decide whether I’m serious about her or not?
Then tell me something.
Why don’t you both tell each other the truth? Stop it!
You saw her reaction when I talked to her about my ex--
girlfriend.
She’s not a close-minded girl like you.
And listen to me, whatever we decide now...
Its none of your business!
Stay out of it
Honestly Wali
I was trying to look out for you too
But you are thankless!
It’s the business of you two, right?
Fine!
Don't involve me
Because whenever Maya needs to be called home, my name comes up.
When there’s drama about picking her up or dropping her off, my name comes up too.
And when I give my opinion,
then you tell me it’s none of my business!
Because I expected some sort of decency from you
About what?
Is this adventure of yours, making a girlfriend and leaving her again and again?
Be quiet! Just be quiet for now
Stop the car
Park on the side, stop the car. No one’s stopping any car, got it?
Weird!
I’ll stop the car, you’ll get out and stand there, you’ll get upset,
and I’ll come to make up with you. Nothing like that will happen.
If you’re so eager, here.. I’ve opened the car. Go ahead, get out.
Go out!
She will ask me to stop the car!
Raani
After finishing the cleaning, come this way.
The dishes need to be washed very carefully.
Yesterday, they were still greasy.
You know how granny is
Mom, your green tea
I don't want
Why?
My choice!
Mom, then your digestion?
Leave it!
I know everything!
Whatever you have been doing behind my back
and now there’s no need to act
so innocent to front of me
Mom, what are you saying?
What did I do behind your back?
Didn’t you tell Mahnoor about the laddu thing?
It’s only been about eight days since the sister--
in-law friendship started,
and you’re already starting fights in the house.
Oh no mom, its nothing like that.. Hey, leave it!
You think I’m a fool.
My eyes aren’t closed; I see everything.
What is this!
Aunty
Do you need something, dear?
Yes, actually I was..
Looking for my bottle, it must be outside..
Let me go and find it
Did something happen? Are you okay?
Yes dear..
I just get a little emotional sometimes,
Its nothing.
You do get emotional, but..
Something must have happened. There must be some reason behind it.
Let me know if I can be of any help. Tell me.
No
I am fine
Thank you!
By the way, you know what I believe?
A hug fixes a lot of things
Come here
Thank you. You do so much for all of us.
Ever since we arrived, you've been under so much pressure,
but you never let us feel it. Thank you for that.
My dear..
Its your own house
Hmm..
By the way, I’m in favor of this bread maker.
If you say so, should I talk to granny?
No..
There shouldn’t be any more discussion about this topic.
The fact that you thought about it means a lot.
Thank you! That’s more than enough.
Okay
When I come back, I’ll make coffee for you myself.
OK?
Will you make the coffee?
If granny finds out, there’ll be trouble.
She won't say anything, I am her favorite
She won't say anything to me, I'll handle it
Don't worry!
Take care
And have a smile on your face, okay?
Make the coffee at your own risk
Okay, see you!
