-
You brought that proposal for Fari right?
-
Yes.
-
So I was thinking if you could...
-
bring a similar proposal for my Joya.
-
Look..
-
Haseena might only have thanked you for it, but I won't do that.
-
I'll pay you for it.
-
What happened?
-
What is your problem?!
-
What do you see written on my face?
-
What animosity do you have with me or my father?
-
First you had him get his hopes up and now you're doing this to me.
-
What is it that you want?
-
Do you want to kill me?
-
I asked you what happened?
-
Nothing at all.
-
So do you have any proposal in your mind?
-
Yes.
-
For Fari it was a coincidence. Actually where I gave tuition,
-
they opened up the subject and I mentioned Fari.
-
I am not a professional marriage broker.
-
Get me one, even if you aren't.
-
Its a better income than giving tuition.
-
Tell me if there is any proposal.
-
Because I don't expect anything from Haseena. All she brings in is crap.
-
And if you don't have any proposals, I'll talk to a marriage bureau then.
-
In fact I do, not one but a few. Since you mentioned,
-
I thought about them.
A few?
-
Yes. I'll talk to them tomorrow and let you know. Alright?
-
Will you have some oranges? They're good.
No thank you. You have them.
-
I'll let you know.
-
And yes..
-
Do tell me before you call them over.
-
At least one day before.
-
Don't call over crowds without informing.
No. I'll tell you.
-
And listen to me. Where are you going?
-
Invite them over in the evening.
-
I don't want to leave work in the day.
-
Alright.
And..
-
I don't want men trooping in and out.
-
We don't have a man in the house to tackle them.
-
I'll make sure to bring in the ladies only.
-
And do tell them,
-
that they won't find much refreshments here.
-
People come, eat and leave.
-
We'll only serve tea and biscuits.
-
You can serve them plain water and cardamoms and it won't be an issue.
-
Now, we're not so cheap too.
-
We can arrange more than plain water.
-
So..
-
just invite them over in a few days only.
-
I'll bring them over.
-
So leave now. Why are you standing here? I have to shut the door.
-
You have him finding a proposal for me mom?
-
Didn't I tell you last night that I wouldn't be taking your tantrums anymore?
-
You're not some extraordinary girl who wouldn't get married.
-
But this is extraordinary incident. The one who's hunting for a proposal for me, actually is..
-
is unmarried himself.
-
He is a bachelor mom, unmarried.
-
So what happened?
-
Doctors don't operate on themselves.
-
Move over. First you drank your own tea..
-
dipping biscuits in it and now you're after me.
-
Move.
-
Mom. You're not doing right.
Yes you aren't.
-
Quiet now!
-
Whatever I'm doing is for your good.
-
I had always thought.
-
I'd get you married once you get 20.
-
I wouldn't let you get 21 years old in this house. Do you understand?
-
Like I would blast like a canyon once I'm 21 years old.
-
All my tea is soaked up by these rusks.
-
Please get me another cup, my dear.
-
Grandma all you're worried about is your tea, not me. Nobody cares for me in this house.
-
Nobody cares for me..
Here she cries whenever you ask her to do something.
-
You've destroyed the entire episode for me.
-
Oh God..
-
No. He's a but busy in his work.
-
Listen to me..
-
Didn't you have a brother you were looking for a proposal for?
-
Yes, the same, who has had his engagements broken thrice.
-
Yes. I have a proposal for him.
-
Should I talk? Its a good proposal.
-
Really?
-
They said no? No..
-
Tell them its a sin to be hopeless.
-
Good things come to those who wait. Tell him its a sin to lose hope.
-
And this proposal is so good. Trust me.
-
Alright.
-
Alright, its his wish after all.
-
I had only good intentions.
-
Thank you anyways. Bye.
-
Ashraf?
-
How are you?
-
Didn't you have a cousin..
-
May God bless you Hatim brother.
-
Where have you had me stuck for three thousand rupees?
-
Oh God.. She is such a dumb student.
-
See miss..
-
Yes?
I was thinking..
-
you should check your copies yourself.
-
Otherwise you wouldn't know which of your student is good or bad.
-
Who is good and who is bad..
-
Simple people like me don't really get to know this.
-
I don't know how to recognize people?
-
I have always been deceived in life.
-
So another deceit won't really matter.
-
Please send my student. I'll teach her and leave.
-
I came home tired from my office.
-
Oh, you're coming from your office. I'll get you tea.
No thank you..
-
I'll have tea at home.
-
Who will make tea for you at home?
-
I'll get it for you.
-
Joya..
-
Joya, come fast.
-
Your teacher has been waiting for you. Its disrespect.
-
Then don't make him wait. Show him respect and send him back.
-
I don't want to study.
-
Have you lost your mind?
-
He has taken advance from your mother. If you take an off everyday,
-
it'll waste her money.
-
So do one thing, ask him to find a proposal for me, too.
-
Tell him to make do for the tuition money with that. In fact,
-
whoever is free in the neighborhood, ask them to do this.
-
She has lost her mind already.
-
Her mother lost her mind when she was 25.
-
I'm waiting. Come fast.
-
Yes of course, they're very respectable people. I will not get any cheap proposals for you.
-
I'm your friend. Not your enemy.
-
Yes, you're right. But Hamza is one amazing friend.
-
I actually wouldn't like that my friend is not married and I go on and tie the knot.
-
And as it is,
-
Your mom and your sisters really want to see you married.
-
Who cares for me..
-
I'll call you back. Alright.
-
What is it uncle?
-
You came too soon. Are you not really teaching well?
-
I didn't even teach her today.
-
What?
-
Then what did you do..
-
Why did you come after 1.5 hours then?
-
I was just..
-
I had tea, had a good chat. Let go of the weight off my heart.
-
Didn't you find someone else to have a good chat with?
-
She's so young, uncle.
-
Young?
-
The kid is ill. She didn't even step out of her room.
-
What?
-
She is not feeling well?
-
She is not feeling well.
-
I know that she isn't well.
-
All these are excuses to not study.
-
She is rather dumb and lazy.
-
You should be ashamed of yourself for saying this. She is a young child.
-
You shouldn't say anything like this to anyone. Shame on you, uncle.
-
He's getting angry as if the child is his.
-
Make me some tea.
-
Why isn't she picking up the phone?
-
I think she is really ill.
-
Shireen.. Where did these stones come from?
-
Run away. You'll get me killed along with yourself.
-
Is she on the rooftop?
-
Hello aunty.
-
Oh.. you made me forget the count.
-
What is it? Tell me.
-
Its okay, you carry on.
-
Tell me.
-
Actually, you said I should tell you before inviting someone over.
-
They'll come tonight with a proposal.
-
Tonight?
Yes.
-
And this you're telling me now. You could have told me a day before at least.
-
But they would have seen a number of other proposals in the meanwhile.
-
Alright. Fine.
-
Bring them over, I'll make arrangements.
-
But Joya's mood is not good either.
Alright..
-
Listen..
-
Yes?
-
Since you're going there, please see, if you can find Sanata near the snooker table.
-
He has become so lazy, he doesn't want to work. I have to send these eggs home.
-
Mom has eaten my brain, calling again and again.
-
Alright.
-
But aunty, what if I don't find Sanata?
-
Go your way if you don't find Sanata!
-
When did I ask you that you had to find Sanata no matter where you had to dig?
-
No.. I actually meant,
-
I'll take these eggs along. If I find Sanata, I'll give him these eggs otherwise I can drop them at your home. No big deal.
-
Alright fine. Take them along.
Okay.
-
And be careful not to break any egg.
-
Alright.
-
And yes, these are a dozen eggs, I have counted them myself. Don't steal any.
-
Now take them.
-
Go.
-
Your mom asked me to drop these eggs at home.
-
So I came here.
-
Of course. When you can find a proposal for me, whats the difficult in giving eggs for you.
-
She asked me to drop these at home.
-
I am only bringing a proposal, it will not be a done deal.
-
What do you mean?
-
I mean..
-
Winning your heart will not do anything. I know it for sure.
-
I have to win your mother's trust. And I think I have almost done it.
-
She sent me home to give you these eggs.
-
Just be happy about this only! You don't know my mom.
-
She'll keep sending you here to deliver the groceries and get me married to the proposal you brought!
-
And yes, she will also ask you to do all the important things that day too.
-
Because you won her heart.
-
Then what should I do, Joya?
-
I went to talk to her about our relationship and marriage that day.
-
And she asked me to find a proposal.
-
You should have told her what was in your heart then.
-
You could have told her about our relationship.
-
Right.
-
Right now, you said that you know your mother too well.
-
The hell you know her! She would have hit me and thrown me out.
-
Didn't you tell me, she is against love marriages.
-
How could I tell her?
-
Then, what will happen now, Hamza?
-
She will say yes to any proposal that comes.
-
She is eager to get me married.
How would she?
-
I'll only bring the most stupid of proposals.
-
Then she'll realize that she has the best proposal right next to her.
-
And she has been looking around everywhere.
-
Are you telling the truth Hamza?
-
Yes.
-
But what if..
-
Oh God..
-
Grandma..
-
Is anybody there?
-
Oh.. Oh...
-
Dad..
What?
-
This boy hasn't gone to work today. His bike is still parked downstairs.
-
But even you haven't gone to work today.
-
Dad, I have a reason.
-
Has your mourning period not ended yet?
-
Dad, according to my horoscope,
-
it could be dangerous for me to leave home today.
-
But this boy, I tell you..
-
He has lost it. He has become useless. Either he'll be playing snooker in the street,
-
or he'll be playing cards, most probably poker.
-
And where will he get the money to play poker?
-
You take all his earnings like his wife would.
-
Dad, I do it because,
-
boys shouldn't have money. They become spoilt.
-
Haven't you seen the movies? They get into drugs and gamble.
-
And according to his horoscope, he can bring me serious harm.
-
Oh, Hatim..
-
If only I had had your horoscope drawn before you were born.
-
I would have known, how much you'll aggravate me.
-
Dad.. why are you after me? Get up. Pull yourself together and look outside.
-
Where is he drowing our family's name?
Oh you shameless person.
-
Have some shame.
-
I spent the night burning with fever and you want me to go outside?
-
You have no shame.
-
Dad, what is wrong with you?
-
He is your grandson and you don't even care for him?
-
As if you care for him.
-
Take the bike and get some petrol and then go,
-
look for him.
-
Go find him now.
Dad, but I cannot go outside today.
-
Should I get you some tea?
-
Poison me with the tea.
-
I didn't do anything grandma.
-
Eggs..
I didn't do anything. I swear I didn't.
-
I didn't do anything. I'm not lying. Ask him please.
-
I didn't do anything..
The boy is right.
-
What?
-
Grandma?
-
He is right.
-
Once she is done looking for stupid proposals,
-
then she'll find him the best in the end.
-
He is the one she'll like.
-
Thank you grandma.
-
Like a figure among ciphers.
-
Grandma..
-
will you not scold me?
-
I am no longer young enough to scold or inquire after you.
-
My heart is satisfied that,
-
you have yourself found a perfect match rather than what your mother would have found for you.
-
I am now with you people.
-
Thank you grandma..
-
You're here.
-
Your father is ready to burst open on you like a pressure cooker.
-
I am not coming. I'm leaving.
-
And let dad simmer for a while more.
-
Where are you going, by the way?
-
Where else will I go? The same tuition.
-
I have taken over a useless favor.
-
If he goes there, Joya's mom and aunt would tell I went there.
-
Uncle..
-
How many times have I asked you not to call from behind me?
-
I was just saying that,
-
Actually, I was saying that the girl won't study today. She isn't well.
-
How do you she isn't well?
-
Her grandmother told me.
-
We should always pay regards to our elders. You have taught me this.
-
She was worried so I asked and she told me that the girl was unwell.
-
Wow.. even your dad is worried. Go ask after him as well.
-
This is how you pay respect too.
-
Go if you want to. Check for yourself. I only wanted to save you a trip.
-
Also, the girl's aunt has brought a heap of notebooks from the school.
-
Go on, even she was missing you.
-
Should I go or not?
-
I cannot check copies anymore.
-
Grandma, please keep a lighter hand.
-
Let me tighten it.
-
Whenever I tighten your braid,
-
you look like Changez Khan.
-
Even when you were a kid, I use to tighten your braids and your eyes would look like Halako (Killer) Khan.
-
Not at all. I have such pretty eyes.
-
Listen to me. Have you forgotten already?
-
The family that is coming over with a proposal, do you want to send them back or you want to like your eyes?
-
Alright. Tighten it please.
-
Grandma..
Yes..
-
Didn't you feel angry at me, at all?
-
I mean, aren't you upset at all?
-
Actually..
-
about Hamza and I..
-
See..
-
I am not old fashioned and illiterate like your mom.
-
And as it is, what did you people do?
-
You people just like each other.
-
Whats wrong about it?
-
Yes, if that boy had been street smart or cheap..
-
I would have given him a good beating.
-
And I would have tighten your screws forever too.
-
But that boy is a good boy.
-
Thank you grandma.
-
But grandma, would my mom agree?
-
I don't know.
-
Your mother is one of those who only understand after they're hurt.
-
And let her get hurt after meeting all those stupid suitors.
-
And then you'll see.
-
I will then move her attention to that boy that she'll only want him as her son in law.
-
Really?
-
Stop in front of the fruit seller.
-
Where are you going aunty? We're already late.
-
But dear, should I go empty ended with a proposal?
-
Please hurry up.
-
Give me a dozen bananas and one kg apples.
-
But Hamza, how is the girl?
-
She's alive.
I mean how does she look?
-
She's alive, have a complete set of hands and is fit and healthy. That should be enough for you.
-
Move over.
-
Aunty, you've gotten a whole dozen bananas. Why being so openhearted. I mean..
-
My mom likes to spend..
Yes, I can see that.
-
Aunty, I had to tell you one important thing.
-
Tell them your demands very openly today.
-
You don't have to hesitate at all.
-
Whatever demands you have, tell them openly today.
-
Tell them if you want a house, car, plot. They're a strong party.
-
No dear. I only want my daughter in law and nothing else.
-
Now come fast.
You're right. What is this?
-
Your mother was world famous for taking dowry.
-
What is this only daughter in law?
-
Your other sister in laws brought trucks full of dowries.
-
Oh, both my sister in laws gave a very tough time to my mom and took away their dowries with them.
-
Along with my brothers. Now, my mom, doesn't want any dowry from the girl.
-
She doesn't want anything. Yes..
-
Really..
-
Now come on.
-
I had thought Joya's mother would get angry if they mentioned dowry.
-
Hamza..
I'm coming.
-
They have lowered my sugar levels.
-
Now what is this? I already had doubts..
-
You will definitely make a fool of yourself. Your fake promises of bringing a stupid proposal is gone down the drain.
-
If my mom finds out that they don't want any dowry, my mom will get me married on the spot.
-
I don't want to hear anything.
-
Oh Mr. Rafiq, the times have changed. People have become so shameless now.
-
No concern for the elders.
-
Your right Hidayat. People have now forgotten the manners to drink tea.
-
They drink tea without anybody else noticing them.
-
In our times, when someone drank tea..
-
they would make a lot of noise.
-
You're right..
-
It seems they have come to visit the store owner's house.
-
But if they are her guests, why is the new tenants' boy bringing them over.
-
Shireen.. Shireen.. The suitor's family is here.
-
They're here so soon. Open the door. I'll just come.
-
Go on. Bring them in.
-
Hello.
Hello.
-
Please come in.
-
Hamza.. it seems,
-
she isn't happy to see us. It appears as if she'll cry right away.
-
No. Maybe she's worried about her daughter's marriage.
-
I'll just go call her.
-
Alright.
-
Oh, I knew it already.
-
I told you not to send me outside.
-
I told you not to let my inauspicious shadow fall on anyone.
-
Hello aunty. Please come.
-
This is the boy's mother.
So, where is the boy?
-
Here's the boy. He fell down.
-
Fell down?
I swear, I didn't spill the water on purpose.
-
When I had told you, you'd not get married to him,
-
then why did you have to hurry up yourself.
-
I'm alive. I'll send them back.
-
At least he would have gone back on his own feet. In a good condition.
-
I swear grandma, I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't even know.
-
I didn't know he would fall down.
Please stop it now.
-
I know everything. Your mind has also started playing tricks on others like your mom.
-
Poor guy, he might have broken a bone or a joint. I'll go and see.
-
Come on dear, be strong.
-
Hamza come help him.
Get up man.
-
Dear, what is your education?
-
What?
-
Do you have a fixed job?
My son is hurt,
-
And you're worrying about his education and his job.
-
Hamza, dear, pick him up.
Come on boy, get up.
-
Tell me now.
-
How much do you earn?
-
Actually..
This woman has lost her mind.
-
Hamza..
Its a close save.
-
At least he didn't break a bone.
-
Come on now bring him inside.
Wait a minute mom.
-
Do you have your own house or do you live on rent?
-
This woman has lost it. The way she has a stone for a heart, her daughter would have one too.
-
We don't want to sit here. Come son.
-
We don't want to get you married here.
But aunty..
-
My dear son, please stand up. I'll take you to the hospital.
-
Come on now. Come.
-
What did you do?
-
What did I do?
-
I am giving them my daughter, I'm bound to question them.
-
Yes. You're right but..
-
You could have let them come in.
-
I only asked a few questions. I had to ask whether he had his own house and whether he earned or not.
-
This way.. Oh you shut up first.
-
Quiet!
-
Earnings don't even have that goodness in them like before.
-
Earlier I used to bring four kgs worth of fruits for my kids. Now this inflation doesn't even let me think of it.
-
These are all signs of the Day of Judgement.
-
Straying away from religion.
-
And people have become so shameless.
-
This is the reason for evil to prevail.
-
See here..
-
Their guest comes on two legs but leaves on six.
-
This again is the sign of the dooms day.
-
I don't understand why these gents are coming in to this house with all ladies.
-
And these gents as tenants.
-
And that man on scooter who comes to give tuition.
-
Why did this boy on motorcycle came here.
-
God forgive us.
-
All these are the signs of the day of judgment. All of them.
-
May God forgive us all.
-
Anwar's mom is touching her ears.
-
She is saying we don't want to get our son married there.
-
Because they kept asking my son stupid questions while he had fallen down.
-
It was so much fun.
-
Yes, that is fine but..
-
how long would we keep calling people and making them fall down.
-
Now you don't have to do anything at all.
-
Leave everything else on grandma. She has a lot of experience in spoiling things.
-
You don't worry at all.
-
What?
-
Please watch out.
-
I hope she doesn't spoil whats ours.
-
Okay. Bye.
-
So here you are.
-
What is it that you're doing?
-
Whats wrong dad? You're mistaken.
I'm mistaken?
-
Hidayat saw you getting in and coming out himself.
-
This Hidayat uncle is nothing less than a CCTV camera.
-
Actually..
-
They had a few guests coming over who didn't know the way. They asked me so I took them. Couldn't say no.
-
And then did you forgot your own house that you went to drop them too?
-
Actually, their guest fell down.
-
He slipped and fell so I took him.
-
Isn't it your responsibility to help those who fall down.
-
You take them to their destination, taking offs from your office.
-
You'll be fired and then nobody will give you their daughter. Its already a bad time.
-
Nobody gives their daughter to a jobless person.
-
What are you thinking?
-
Nothing at all.
-
I told you to wear yellow today.
-
You never listen to what my preacher tells you.
-
Dad, I don't have that color in my wardrobe recommended by your preacher.
-
You could have told me and I would have asked him to give you a different color.
-
We like your daughter.
-
Its just that she is a little weak. Slim and petite.
-
but its okay.
-
Once she's married, we'll feed her good.
-
Our hotel is famous for its food.
-
Oh God. That boy should go to hell. Why has he sent over a chef's proposal to us?
-
Mom, they have a big hotel.
Shut up, Shireen.
-
Will we give our daughter to chefs. Its not possible while I'm alive.
-
You're insulting us.
See Miss.
-
I have not talked to people lower in status than myself.
-
And I've never taken their favor.
Mom!
-
Let them go. As if they belong to a royal family.
-
They'll make our daughter cook a lot of food.
-
Come on leave. Will you keep eating?
-
Please listen.. Please..
-
Yes. Of course. We'll definitely come. I'll take your number from Hamza.
Ask anyone.
-
Where do the factory owners live, they'll tell you.
-
Which factory do you have?
-
We have a ceramics and sanitary factory.
-
What?
-
Oh God.. Call that neighbor's boy!
-
Who has he sent over!
-
They make washrooms.
Mom!
-
They have a rich business.
This business can go to hell.
-
They make taps and showers for the bathroom.
-
As it is, I was thinking why did it started smelling once they came.
-
Oh God!
-
Where is Hamza!
-
Call him now.. What sort of proposals is he bringing over?
-
This boy is a doctor.
-
Good. Mom?
-
The boy is a doctor.
-
Is he a cardiologist or a orthopedic surgeon?
-
I have both problems.
-
That is great. Our family will have a doctor to help me.
-
My brother is a gynecologist.
-
What is that? I haven't heard about that.
-
I don't know English.
-
She means, he deals with women patients.
-
So yes, I'm a woman too.
-
But tell me, why does your brother not treat men?
-
She is old fashioned that's why.
-
Oh God. Forgive me..
-
Will we give our daughter to a man who is a midwife?
-
Her brother is a doctor.
-
That is amazing! But what he does is what a midwife does! A midwife!
-
Mom!
And listen to me,
-
He treats women, its a sin...
My brother is a doctor.
-
Oh God. Please leave.
Please wait.
-
Why are you stopping them?
-
He checks women with gynae problems..
Mom, enough!
-
He would be shameless. Its good that they left.
-
Why are you pointing out silly things in all proposals.
-
You insult people coming over. You say silly things. People will not come here anymore.
-
Why have we been so unlucky?
-
And its overshadowing Joya as well.
-
Agree or not, mom is habitual of keeping her daughters with herself.
-
First, she kept us together with her and now its Joya's turn.
God forbit.
-
I will not let mom come and see the guests next time.
-
I'll see how.
-
How can you do anything without my approval.
-
How will you marry Joya to just anyone, without my approval?
-
I will take a sword and stand guard at the door. I will not let anyone in.
-
What do you want mom?
-
At least we have a few proposals coming in.
-
And that boy Hamza is to be thanked for that. Otherwise nobody even looked our way after they learned of our divorces.
-
Now, you'll hold a sword to them.
-
And that boy is taking money for each proposal he brings.
-
But he earns it.
-
I think he will not bring any more proposals.
-
Why won't he? I'll see him!
-
He has taken money from us and he has promised too.
-
He will bring us a proposal.
-
I know how to get our money from him.
-
You just wait and watch.
-
Do you want this?
-
Will you have it Shireen?
No. I don't want this mom.
-
As you wish.
