-
Can you help me put this henna?
-
Please? How will I look going to watch a movie with this white head?
-
How would I look?
-
Mom, the cinema is dark. Nobody would notice if your hair is black or white.
-
Your mustache too won't be visible then. Why are you threading them?
-
Mom, it was so good when Fari was around.
-
Her salon was right next door. Now we have to do everything ourselves.
-
Grandma, see how is everyone coming along.
-
Yes, that is great, even I wanted everybody, to go together.
-
This is a great thing that Hamza planned today.
-
Please put this henna on my head.
-
Come on take it. There is very little time. What time will the film start?
-
Shireen, will all of us fit in your car?
-
Yes why not.
-
That is why I've bought a station wagon, it can fit 6 7 people easily.
-
Which film is it? And who is the hero?
-
I hope it isn't that one with a puffy face. I hate him.
-
Joya what should I wear?
-
Now listen, after dinner, I'll treat everyone to dessert.
-
Now that's the thing.
I'm going to get ready.
-
Come on, come on everybody.
Here's my car.
-
Move it. You've made a crowd here.
-
Let me break this egg.
-
Mom, why did you have to wear this flared bottoms?
-
What will you do with this egg grandma? Do you want to make an omelet?
-
This will save us from the evil eye.
Mom..
-
Mom you've destroyed my new car. You've made it all dirty.
This isn't dirty.
-
I've even bought this sandal, especially for you.
-
I'll tie it right in the front, it'll save this from the evil eye.
No.
-
This sandal will not be tied to my car.
-
No. Not on my car. Throw it away.
-
This is good. At least this sandal left the house.
-
I got this sandal stitched yesterday only.
-
Why are you wearing this turban? Will you watch or shoot a film?
-
Shireen make mom sit, she'll get tired standing.
Yes. I am making her sit.
-
Come here mom.
-
Come here. Sit in the front.
This is a very nice car.
-
You have pain in your knees, you can sit here easily.
Knee pain?
-
Am I not old? Aren't these my legs?
-
Dad, you've been a body builder, it shouldn't make a difference to you.
-
Come I'll make you sit.
-
Come here. Come..
-
Come on sit.
-
Now there is space for one person only.
-
Joya, come sit in my lap, as it is you weigh nothing.
-
Aunt, its alright. Joya can sit at the back with me.
-
Oh.. But who will drive the car? You will.
-
Why will I drive? I'll sit at the back with Joya.. I mean,
-
You bought this car for yourself. You'll drive it. Not me.
-
No dear. It doesn't look good.
-
Your my son in law how can your mother in law drive? Come on.
-
It doesn't matter, you can drive.
Take these keys.
-
Come Joya.
Come on drive. I would have driven it if it had been a scooter.
-
Come on everybody.
Where's the door dad?
-
Here it is.
-
Oh yes..
-
Sing the Lord's praise. Don't hurt anyone.
-
The one who owns the universe,
-
say all praise belongs to him.
-
Who asked you to bring the entire procession along?
-
Who asked me?
Why did you tell everyone?
-
I didn't invite anyone. Everybody just got ready themselves.
-
I had dreamt about so many things.
-
Everybody just destroyed the plan together.
-
It would have been better had we not gone.
-
Everybody else could have gone. At least we would have found some peace at home.
-
I'll see them. How long can they stay like a bell on our necks!
-
We will have to do something!
-
What will you do? You've spent the amount you saved for the honeymoon as well!
-
Now even if you arrange the money, I'm not going. All of them will come with us!
-
Why would they? Its not the end of the world!
-
We'll have to plan and move ahead Joya.
-
We will not tell them.
-
We will not tell them we're going together.
-
Yes.
-
Lets pick a place. You make an excuse at home. I'll come from the office.
-
That is good.
-
Why didn't you come with us last night?
-
I don't watch movies. Neither do I dine out.
-
But why is that?
-
I don't do anything that I wanted to do with Dua.
-
Dua (prayer)?
-
Who prays before watching a movie?
-
Dua..
-
My dead wife..
-
All my dreams with her, are incomplete.
-
I couldn't spend a single moment of happiness with her.
-
That is why, all happiness is prohibited for me.
-
You should have prohibited yourself the happiness. Why impose it on others?
-
Why are you snatching away the happiness others get from you?
-
Even my dreams are unfulfilled.
-
So what should I do? Should I take revenge from my old mom or Joya?
-
I give them their fair share of love.
-
Even if I couldn't find my own.
-
Brother Hamza, did you do my work?
-
Sukhi, my own job is in danger these days.
-
I get insulted everyday.
-
Don't you worry. I've talked to a few acquaintances for you.
-
I'll tell you then.
-
Thank you brother.
-
Its embarrassing to sit and eat without a job.
-
Don't worry. Okay.
-
I'll tell you.
Thank you Hamza.
-
It seems they no longer have any shame left.
-
This had to happen. Now they'll spoil the boys from the neighborhood.
-
I will have to do something.
-
Make it sweeter.
-
Its very spicy.
-
Oh God, let me leave the house all alone.
-
I don't want anyone along.
-
Thank God they're sleeping otherwise they would have said I didn't tell them before I left.
-
If he asks me, I'll tell him I did come to meet him but he was sleeping.
-
So you finally found time to say hello to your grandma.
-
Hello grandma.
-
I can sacrifice my life for you. May you live long.
-
Seems like you've finally followed what your grandma tells you.
-
You look lovely. Stay like this all the time.
-
Yes. I..
-
I'll leave grandma, I'm getting late. Bye.
-
Where are you going? Where?
-
I'm going to see Fari.
-
For shopping?
-
Its good.
-
Keep lightening your husband's wallet.
-
Don't even have the tiniest of remorse about it.
-
When a man gets tired of spending on his wife,
-
when he's half dead spending, he shivers if it comes to thinking about other women.
-
Should I come with you too? I want to buy some fabric.
-
No grandma, we're not going to the market.
-
Then you're going to see Fari? I'll come with you.
-
I'll see how she has settled down.
-
Or if she has destroyed everything.
-
We're going to see the doctor, grandma. She isn't feeling well.
-
I'll take you along when we're going to the market some day.
-
You'll only get tired if you come along to the doctor. You should get some rest.
-
I'll just come back soon. Bye.
Listen to me, Joya? Where are you going?
-
Listen to me, why are you going to the doctor?
-
Oh..
-
She's my child.
-
Why is she going to the doctor all alone? She looked alright.
-
Oh God..
-
I swear, grandma couldn't really control herself from tagging along.
-
Grandpa was sleeping. Dad and uncle weren't home and so wasn't mom.
-
Had she been home, I couldn't have left.
-
Thank God, we got some solitude.
-
What excuse did you make?
-
I said what I thought of first. Its easy to make an excuse to grandma.
-
Had mom been there, she would have asked me tons of questions.
-
Tell me,
-
what should we do again?
-
Will you see the sunset with me on the beach?
-
No.
-
When I'm with you, I don't want to see anything,
-
that is setting.
-
Oh God.
-
Where are all these four men?
-
Why is my child going to the doctors all alone when they're around!
-
Did I get her married for this?
-
If he cannot do this, what sort of a husband is he?
-
What is all this racket about old woman?
-
What happened mom?
-
Ask me what hasn't happened yet!
-
Our innocent child, who, we keep on the bed, if she has a headache,
-
has gone to the doctor all alone.
-
Doctor? Who is sick?
-
My Joya!
-
My child.
-
Couldn't your son get some medicine for his wife?
-
Couldn't he take her to a doctor?
-
Didn't you teach him the responsibilities of a husband?
-
Joya is sick? Hatim?!
-
Luqman!
-
He didn't even know Joya is sick.
-
Oh. Why did we give our daughter, our beautiful daughter to these inconsiderate men!
-
Had her husband been considerate, he would have cared for her.
-
He would have gone crazy, had she even sneezed.
Mom..
-
What is this chaos about? I could hear you till my shop.
-
Shireen, our Joya..
What happened to Joya?
-
Don't ask, its all bad news.
-
Its a tragedy!
Tell me fast mom. My heart is drowning.
-
What will she tell! Ask me.
-
Mom has lost it. All her experience has gone down the drain.
-
She has given birth to two daughters and raised a granddaughter and yet she doesn't understand.
-
What? You tell me, miss intelligent. Why are you making me guess riddles?
-
A girl goes to the doctor after she's married.
-
But not along with her mother, aunt or grandma but with her friend.
-
Now tell me whats the reason of this?
-
This means her husband doesn't care about her an ounce.
-
Oh mom. Its her first time and Joya is rather shy by nature.
-
Husband is husband and she must have been shy going along her mother or aunt.
-
Thats why she went with Fari.
-
It could be a good news and you've created chaos.
-
Shireen, at least you understand.
-
Its a blessing from God. I think our Joya is pregnant. Oh God..
-
May you get sweets. My child..
-
Something will happen to me now.
-
Dad, have some patience.
-
The patience can go to hell. Its time you take me to the hospital.
-
I was telling everyone, she didn't look fine to me.
-
She looked pale and has dark circles and she is never hungry.
-
Now you'll be served.
-
Dad what should I do? Hamza isn't answering his phone.
-
Let Hamza come.
-
I'll skewer his skin.
-
Its his duty to look after his wife's health. Not mine.
-
This old man is always trying to feed her something.
-
But no.
-
Dad, you cannot do much for her health all of a sudden.
-
All her life, her miser of a mother brought her up on egg plants.
-
Haven't you seen her weight? Its close to a kitten's.
-
Where is Luqman?
-
I've sent Luqman to Haseena's house. She has gone with Fari,
-
she'll know where they went.
-
Bring doctor Siddiqui here, this instant.
-
Tell her to bring her tools.
-
Why her tools? Joya is sick dad, she isn't a machine that needs tools.
-
You crazy.. She'll come here and catch up with Joya right here.
-
Its check up dad, not catch up.
-
You find my mistakes. I'm worried about her health.
-
I want to see my daughter in law alive.
-
Dad, I'm not strangling her. You're making me pay for someone else's faults.
-
What sort of children they are?
What..
-
Doctor with me..
-
Yes. Didn't they go with you, sister?
-
Listen to me..
-
Have some shame before you refer to me as a sister.
-
You must be a new widower when I was born. And the next thing,
-
I just came home and I was going to meet Joya.
-
You're saying she was with me..
-
And yes, don't ever call me sister again.
-
But she was telling me,
-
where could she be..
-
First corn, then fruit chart and now ice cream..
-
Did you come here to meet me or eat? You can't eat anything at home.
-
So when do I find all this at home?
-
Grandpa feeds me eggs, milk, butter, meat,
-
he gives me all the boring food.
-
I am so fed up Hamza. You know what happened yesterday.
-
I was about to get ice cream from the street,
-
he said no because I could get a sore throat.
-
Even I'm scared you'll fall ill. God knows what you're eating.
-
What time is it?
-
I didn't bring my phone so that nobody could bother me.
-
Even my phone is off and my watch isn't working either, Joya.
-
Come on, we should go now.
-
Listen, can I clean my hands on your shirt?
-
Of course, but first let me clean my shoes from your clothes..
-
No.. No..
Listen up.. Joya..
-
Musarrat, I'll be a grandma..
-
Not grandma, great grandma..
May you eat sweets.
-
First time in your life, you gave us a good news from that sad face of yours.
-
Hope everything is alright.
-
First of all.. she went alone.
-
Secondly, she lied about where she was going.
-
Thirdly, she didn't even take her phone along.
-
Fourthly,
-
she looked so happy for the first time after her marriage.
-
I think..
-
How many times did I tell him..
-
How many times did I tell him not to marry a girl who was in love with someone else.
-
But no..
-
I did tell Joya to not hurry.
-
but this girl..
-
Now a new life will have to go through this test.
-
God forbid if the baby has to face the same destiny as my Joya.
-
She can forget everything.
-
She can forget everything except her first love.
-
Oh God.. God..
-
My nephew..
-
has the pain of disloyalty and loneliness written in his fate.
-
Just like,
-
my fate.. Oh God..
-
Why did you do this Hamza?
-
Why isn't she back yet? I'm scared.
-
Me too.
-
Mom, why did you let her go alone?
-
She was in such a hurry. She didn't even take her phone.
-
And who did she take along.
-
That stupid Fari.
-
Oh God.
-
Mom, I am scared of Fari.
-
See, she got married before Joya,
-
but Joya conceived before her.
-
I am scared that she might envy Joya and her child..
Shut up!
-
Didn't you start talking inauspicious like you do!
-
It must be Hamza. Tell him,
-
to go find my child.. Oh, Joya..
-
Joya.. you're home.
-
Come here my child. Give me a hug.
-
Oh my child.. Where were you since so long?
-
Give her a hug. There's no restriction here.
-
All restrictions are for us.
-
May you live long. May God,
-
bless you and keep you safe from the evil eye.
-
What's wrong grandma? Is everything alright?
-
You came back so late.
-
Its not good to go somewhere all alone in this condition, best to take someone sensible along.
-
Hamza..
-
Yes dad, I'll just come.
-
I'll just come too.
-
Listen you don't have to tell anything to Hamza's father or grandfather yet.
-
Daughters don't look good sharing such news.
-
Shame is something to value. I'll tell him myself.
-
Alright grandma. Should I go?
Yes. I'll tell them. Go.
-
Be careful on the steps. Look out.
-
Thank God.
-
Now at least tell me.
-
What happened grandpa?
Tell me which hospital did you take Joya to?
-
Hospital?
Why don't you tell me what it is? What dangerous disease does she have?
-
Don't scare me. You're killing me.
-
What could it be grandpa. You both are scaring me.
-
Both of us have our breathes stuck and you're talking.
-
Hamza, there is something because Joya went to the hospital alone.
-
There must be something that she called you and you switched off your phone.
-
There is something..
Joya is here. Joya..
-
Joya, where are your reports? Your X ray..
What reports?
-
How much fee did the doctor charge?
You're worried about the fee!
-
You miser man..
Dad I'm asking for the fee to guess the severity of her disease.
-
God knows who that pathetic was who suggested your mother to name you Hatim.
-
Hatim..
Couldn't you make another excuse? Why did you have to say hospital?
-
What could I say?
-
Had I said shopping, grandma would have tagged along or else aunt, if I said I was going to watch a movie.
-
What will we do about them?
-
Even your sneeze makes grandpa sleepless.
-
How should I tell him you're all right?
-
Didn't I tell you not to eat all that ice cream?
-
Joya your cough will make grandpa think you have tuberculosis and he'll hang me.
-
Coming grandpa.
-
Shireen..
-
Shireen.. Shireen,,
-
Are you sleeping?
-
Shireen..
-
Grandma.. grandma..
-
What is this nonsense mom?
-
What do you mean?
-
You're becoming a grandma.. you'll be called one.
-
Come on get up. Give me a suggestion.
-
Get up.
-
My suggestion was ignored by my own child.
-
Why do you want a suggestion from me?
-
Listen I've asked Joya to not give this good news to her in laws.
-
We'll tell them according to our tradition.
-
I'll get the red wool out of the box tomorrow.
-
Then I'll tell Musarrat to embroider the good news on it, since she'll free all day.
-
And I'll go tell her in laws myself. And you, please get me some sweets.
-
Why are you doing all this mom?
-
Joya and Hamza will have the doctor's report.
-
They'll give him that report.
-
Listen, until I'm alive. This news will not be told in a simple way.
-
God bless your grandma. The news of your birth,
-
was given to everyone like this. And don't you remember Joya's time?
-
This is how I gave the news to everyone. To your in laws, your friends,
-
So what did it get me?
-
What did Joya, Musarrat or I got to see in this world, even after all those celebrations?
-
A destroyed mother,
-
and a broken family.
-
Put your tongue out.
How can she do that?
-
She doesn't have a tongue doctor. She's very quiet.
-
Where are your reports?
-
What reports?
The deadly doctor that the two of you went to..
-
he must have given you reports.
-
No grandpa, I didn't get a check up.
-
What were you doing if you didn't get a check up for 4 hours?
-
Actually..
Hamza tell her to tell everything to the doctor and not hide anything.
-
She'll be fine.
Grandpa she is telling you there was no checkup no reports.
-
She's fine. Absolutely fine.
Yes grandpa. I went with Fari.
-
Cough.. Doctor she has a bad cough. Check her lungs.
-
Doctor, check her lungs.. get an X ray.
-
Doctor its a bad cough. Get her medicines or x ray.
Have patience. I'm checking her.
-
Nothing should happen to my Joya.
Please its okay.
-
I'm checking her. Don't worry.
-
(Singing in the background)
-
Are you fine Hamza?
-
I'm a dead duck now. Peace has been evading me for a long time Shukoor.
-
I really like it when people call me Shukoor instead of Bubly Shukoor.
-
Hamza, did something turn about Sukhi's job?
-
My life is going to be ruined.
-
I'm sitting here in the middle of the night, hungry, instead of my room.
-
And you're thinking about social work?
-
You'll get good if you do good.
-
You'll get prayers from Sukhi and all your problems will vanish.
-
Yes.
-
Alright. I'll try this as well.
-
I've heard you people get your prayers answered very fast.
-
I swear Hamza, don't leave me like this at home.
-
What? Have you taken grandpa seriously?
-
Why are you acting you're sick?
-
I cannot take an off. My job is in danger already.
-
And my life is in danger.
-
I've never had an injection and grandpa has gotten me a drip.
-
I got a cough eating all that ice cream yesterday, but who gets a drip for this? Please take it off.
-
Who told you to give doctor as an excuse. Now suffer.
-
It just slipped out of my tongue. Now will he get me operated?
-
What is it about going to the doctor or the hospital that is so big?
-
I did tell grandma and aunt too.
-
Nobody reacted this way. They were normal.
-
Don't call your aunt or grandma normal in front of me.
-
If I say something it would be disrespect.
-
They have a unique reaction for everything.
-
They were kissing you as if you had come back from a war and not from a doctor.
-
Now I'm just wondering, mom didn't say anything at all.
-
In fact she didn't come outside.
-
I'll talk to her, she'll make grandpa understand.
-
Please come with me.
I'm not coming anywhere.
-
I'm going to work. Please handle it yourself.
-
Hamza.. at least get this drip off.
-
What problem is this..
-
Please grandma I'm already late. You don't know my boss.
-
Why should I know strange men?
-
But grandma I do know that strange man.
-
It won't be good for me to be late another day.
-
He insulted me so much in front of the whole office.
-
I'll eat when I'm back. Bye, I love you.
-
I will not this food go waste.
-
How dare he treat my son in law like this!
-
May God curse him.
-
May he be cursed.
-
He has scared my child.
-
Aunt.. is mom home or left for her store?
-
She is still at home. Didn't you guess since I'm speaking so softly.
-
When she's around, nobody can cry freely. But wait..
-
What is this? How did you hurt yourself?
-
No aunt, I didn't get hurt. The bandage is because of the IV grandpa made me get.
-
He called the doctor.
-
Doctor?
-
Needles? Oh God..
-
Mom.. mom, this is the limit..
Mom.,
-
Are you upset with me?
-
No. Why would I be upset?
-
Because I went away without informing you.
-
No.
-
Now you're grown up and married.
-
I have no control over you now.
-
And I should have known this before advising you.
Don't say that mom.
-
You will never have no control over me. You're my mother.
-
I am a mother that is why I advised you because of my bitter experience. To save you from the pain.
-
But I forgot, today, children, rather than learn from their elder's mistakes,
-
want to repeat those mistakes themselves.
-
What are you saying mom? What mistake?
-
Maybe you're hurt about me calling it a mistake.
-
Whats done is done.
-
You're my child. A piece of my heart.
-
And if you're happy, I'm happy for you.
-
What are you saying? Be clear.
-
Has everyone lost it? Who gets someone needles in this condition?
-
They should have at least asked someone sensible before getting her injections.
-
Hatim, what is all this chaos. Make the old woman shut up.
-
I will not spare anyone if something happens to the child.
-
What will happen to the child?
-
He went to the office, hale and hearty.
-
I am talking about the child to come.
Come?
-
How will he come? He just left. He'll come in the evening.
-
I am talking about Hamza and Joya's child to come.
-
Who gives these medicines and injections to a girl expecting?
-
Why are you experimenting with my daughter?
-
Joya and Hamza's child.
Come on..
-
Oh God.. You people are so crude and you've made me do the same too.
-
I would have brought you this news in a classic manner.
-
All my plans got drowned because you made me tell you in such a crude way!
-
My Hamza.. he's going to be a father..
-
Old man..
-
What are you saying? Who told you this?
-
Didn't you say so?
I?
-
When did I tell you this?
-
You didn't tell me but you told Musarrat and mom.
-
I said nothing to anyone and why would I when there is nothing like that.
-
Amazing. Grandma made a mountain out of nothing at all.
-
Oh God! Your grandma is going to make a grand announcement in your in laws. Stop her!
-
Oh God! Grandma!!!!
-
I will not let Joya climb the stairs now.
-
All of you are stupid. God knows what you'll do to the child.
-
How could we have known..
Of course.
-
You're just a child yourself.
-
How could you know why the girl went to the hospital?
-
Grandma, you're the one who misunderstood.
-
You're the limit. Come with me, I'll tell you.
Joya.. my child.
Grandma, you're the one who misunderstood.
-
You're the limit. Come with me, I'll tell you.
Joya.. my child.
-
You should have told us.
-
I would have brought Dr. Samia rather than Dr. Siddiqui.
-
Oh. I don't need a doctor.
Nobody knows anything amongst all of you.
-
We need to call a midwife!
Grandpa..
-
Be careful dear, what are you doing? The baby will be scared.
-
Nothing is wrong with me.
-
Not what you're thinking, not what aunt and grandma are thinking.
-
I did go to the doctor but I told grandma I was going with Fari.
-
This means Fari wasn't well and she wanted to see the doctor.
Oh.. Fari!
-
Come on.
-
I was thinking about it. I know everything through my dreams or my scholar.
-
You made a mountain out of nothing.
-
Dear.. we're all children and she is the intelligent one.
-
Who are you people?
-
Joya.. Oh Joya..
-
Happiness changed its path before it came to us.
-
Please aunt. Don't bother me. I'm already upset.
-
Don't take it to your heart. I know its upsetting but,
-
But be patient. You have all your life. You just got married.
Oh aunt.,
-
I am upset because of something else.
-
Actually, I talked loudly with grandma in front of everyone because I was angry.
-
I misbehaved with her.
-
I am now embarrassed. I'll go apologize to grandma.
-
But she isn't home. She just left.
-
Oh God. Did she go to see Fari. Now you'll see,
-
she'll bring a new issue from there.
She didn't tell anything.
-
But she did say she'll serve him good and how dared he..
-
She was saying something like that..
Aunt, please think about it..
-
Oh God..
