(Dev) Welcome to Good Morning Woods Villa family.
By the way, we are the family.
You are employees of the family business.
-Thank you, child. -Why didn't anyone clean up here?
-I'm going. -(Kalki) No one listens to me here.
Chandan has come after seven years.
And now, we both have grown up.
(Dev) Be it a city or village, everyone gets screwed.
(Grandpa) Himalaya, aren't you ashamed of partying at this age?
If you save this hotel today...
(Grandpa) I'll give a medal to that person
who saves the hotel from ruins.
-Kalki. -Thanks, Grandpa.
-See you next-- -(power outage)
(eerie whoosh)
-(Kalki grunting) -(tennis bat hitting ball)
(in-game voice) You lose.
(Kalki) Oh, man...
Serbian girls play tennis well even on a computer.
Negi, bring me juice.
Bisht, bring my towel.
And, Sushma, stop staring at me.
(stuttering) Madam, can we talk?
Sushma, do you come to work just to talk?
Madam, I'm a receptionist.
Talking is my job.
(sighs) Okay, fine.
Tell me while the game loads.
-Madam, today's the 2nd... -Yes, so?
Isn't your birthday on the 5th?
No, my birthday is on the 15th.
I haven't received my salary. I wanted to ask about it.
(stuttering) Yes, so...
It's only the 2nd today.
-You'll get it. -No, I'm talking about last month's.
Okay. I'll do something.
Why are you standing here?
Madam, you were going to give CCTV access on my mobile.
I'm considering working from home this weekend.
-You are the head of security. -I'm proud of it!
How will you guard the hotel while sitting at home?
Via the CCTV.
What's your issue?
We need another person in the kitchen.
The workload has increased.
Okay, fine.
Email me about all the problems you're facing.
I have important work right now.
Madam...
Come on, Sharapova.
This time I won't lose at zero.
All that was just a week-long show.
Then back to square one.
If this continues,
we'll neither get our salary nor peaceful sleep.
Something needs to be done about the game.
(captivating instrumental music)
(Himalaya) Wow, what a place!
(Kripaal) Even I've come so high up for the first time.
Come on, open our bar quickly.
Oh, man, give it to me.
-(folk song playing on phone) -Keep listening to songs also.
-(beer can pops and fizzes) -Awesome!
Cheers!
Will you drink alone today too?
For the kind of songs that you are playing...
they sound like bhajans from the temple.
Villagers were right about it.
I keep protecting you for no reason.
Defending you all the time.
-Cheers to that. -(Kripaal scoffs)
(song fades out)
-(Chutki) Sister, I have started... -(Hima) Yes?
-...to load the boxes in the truck. -That's great!
Tell Panth that we have to leave in two minutes.
-Okay? -Hima!
-What is it? Why are you shouting? -Hima!
-See you. -Okay.
The hotel is out of firewood.
So, go and get it from the jungle. I have a lot of work today.
Umesh, make the deliveries quickly
or else the flavonoids in the kaphal will expired.
-"Flavonoids"? -Do you know what kaphal is?
Sounds like a tribal fruit to me.
(sighs) Here you go.
I gave you some last week, remember?
Eat them every day.
You'll not feel breathless when climbing the mountains.
Sister, there's a big problem.
Bigger than him?
Can you please come and check?
What's wrong now?
Look, I know that there's slightly more work involved,
but as soon as the work is done, you all can leave.
Madam, I have to go home at 4:00 p.m.
My son is expecting his 10th class result.
And also, it's his 22nd birthday today.
Yes.
It's a four-day job, dear. How do we finish it in two days?
You must consider their age also.
If madam is asking for it, we will have to at least try.
How do we try?
You try if you want.
I am newlywed.
I cannot go home tired.
I have other chores at home, too.
Look, I understand
we do not have enough time to complete this order.
But we got early orders due to the season and I accepted.
But, madam, we are refusing.
Please try at least.
-Hima, a word? -(indistinct chatter)
-Hmm. -(man 1) Not possible.
(man 2) You are right...
I understand your problem.
And I also have a solution for that.
We have learnt this in MBA.
-Really? What? -Hmm
We will have to show them the carrot.
This is from their farm only.
That's not the point.
Watch and learn.
Okay, Ms. Sharapova, I'll show you now.
Where is my game?
Where is my game?!
(Kalki groans angrily) Sushma, Negi, Bisht!
Where is everybody? Where is my game?
It's in our cupboard.
-(cackles like a villain) -What?
-What are you doing? -I stole her game.
-Come. -(Kalki) Where's everyone? Now!
Bisht!
Dagdiya, you remember?
We saw our first snowfall here.
Correct!
The village boys made snowballs and hit you with it.
Your nose was bleeding.
-Those were the days. -Your memory is getting too sharp.
Stop living in the past, start living in the present.
And stop flirting with me.
(folk song playing on radio)
(distant roar)
Kripaal, I told you I'm not interested.
(suspenseful music)
What?
Did you hear that sound?
What sound?
(leopard roars)
BEWARE
(suspenseful music continues)
(leopard roars)
-(suspenseful music intensifies) -(leopard growls)
We asked you to support us, but you didn't.
Come on, hear me out first.
Don't act like our leader. I'm warning you.
(laughing)
Hello, friends. My name is Dev.
I'm Hima's friend.
We are starting a new tradition from today.
Custom.
Thank you. We are starting a new custom from today,
which only happens in big companies.
Employee of the Day.
-Huh? -(all) What is he saying?
-(hesitantly) Worker. -Worker?
The worker of the day.
Whichever employee works the hardest
will get double his salary that day.
-Meaning? -Wage.
I know what's a wage.
He'll get double his wage that day.
And his photo will be displayed here.
-What say, Hima? -Of course!
Like yesterday, Panth packed the most number of boxes. Right?
So, Panth, bring your photo here.
I don't have a photo, but I have a sketch.
Please make do with this.
-It's good, right? -It's very good. Who is this?
It's me.
I have admitted my daughter to an art school,
using all my savings.
-You have done a great job. -Thank you.
I think you must get some extra bonus.
In fact, you keep all of this.
Very good. Chutki put this up here.
-Clap, everyone. -(Hima) Congratulations, Mr. Panth.
Very nice sketch. So realistic.
(folk song playing on phone)
Hello, madam.
Anything wrong?
I heard someone screaming in the morning, that's why.
Somebody stole my game.
Oh...
I went to file a complaint at the police station,
but they scolded me instead...
(sniffs) ...for playing video games at this age.
(stuttering) Exactly, madam. Why would you involve the police?
Tell me.
Madam, everything happens for the better.
You are right.
I will not sulk anymore.
In fact, I'll spend all my time with my staff.
Really? Sure.
This is great, madam.
This morning, I was asking you
-about the salary-- -Why is it kept like this?
(bangs phone)
(phone rings)
-Good morning. -(man) Your service is pathetic!
I gave ₹50 to the receptionist
to get me stuff from the chemist.
It's been so long, but she hasn't returned.
What if I have a child tomorrow? Will you pay for his school fees?
I'm really sorry, sir.
Let me get back to you.
Sorry.
I went out to chill for ten minutes
and you got a girl almost pregnant?
Madam...
I'll only have to micromanage.
Badoni! Badoni!
Where the fuck are you?!
I need an answer right now!
Badoni!
What the hell is this, Badoni?
You've left used earbuds here?
Madam, I only used one end, the other end is still fresh.
Disgusting.
Negi! Negi!
Where is Negi?
(screaming)
This is the third rat I've seen in three minutes.
Not the third rat, madam.
You must've seen the same rat thrice.
Hey, Jerry, don't bother madam.
You named... Disgusting!
Bisht! Bisht!
Why is the CCTV camera pointed at you?
I actually wanted to see how I look on the TV.
My wife tells me that I look like Pankaj Tripathi.
Have you come here to work? Or to model?
And what's with these pants?
-Did you like it? I-- -Shut up!
I gave you so much respect and you...
Ungrateful fellow!
What kind of respect is this?
(suspenseful music)
(leopard roars)
(Himalaya exhales)
You're responsible for this.
The leopard followed us here because of your bad songs.
Shh... what are you doing?
Speak softly, or else it will come here
and eat you up.
Why will it eat me? Why not you?
You tell me? If you get to choose between fresh warm bread
and stale bread, what will you eat?
It is a leopard, not a hungry farmer
to choose between breads.
-It will devour both of us. -Shh...
And stop making up stories. You are a local.
How'd you get out of here in childhood?
Somebody said this to me today,
"Don't live in the past but in the present."
"And don't flirt."
You... I'll make your future after getting out of here.
Get the phone; call someone.
(folk song playing)
(leopard roars)
We are done for!
We are doomed now.
Save us!
Help! Save us!
Why are you shouting?
It's cold and windy. It'll inflate your lungs
and burst them open.
(in a hushed voice) Save us!
Help!
This is okay.
-Wait and watch. -What?
-They'll be much more efficient. -Okay.
Because I applied the same method in my factory.
-I see. -The profits were so good that
the income tax department raided us.
Thanks, Dev. (chuckles)
Don't thank me. I didn't have much to do anyway.
What do you mean? Who will manage the hotel?
I'm here for the hotel only.
I'm here to get raw material from the vendor.
Give me the firewood.
-You're still-- -Sister!
-Yes? -There is trouble. Come with me.
Why can't you ever bring good news?
Please come and see it for yourself.
(Badoni) This Kalki is gonna kill me with all the work.
I'm washing 30 bedsheets daily.
There aren't even that many rooms in this hotel.
I'm telling you, guys,
Kalki is taking revenge for something.
Yes!
She stood with me at the reception for eight hours yesterday.
And she taught me eight different ways of saying sorry and thank you.
Now I'm unable to understand
when to say thank you and when to say sorry.
On one hand, she's not paying our salaries.
To top it off, she even took the ₹50 that a guest tipped.
-Oh, really? -I've had enough.
I suggest that we all go on strike together.
No, buddy. Not a hunger strike.
Drinking on an empty stomach causes ulcers.
I can't go on a hunger strike either.
There's paneer for lunch at my home today.
Nice. Send four pieces over to my place.
But that would be all of it!
She was better off playing video games.
Yes, let's return the video game.
She'll again get busy playing games.
Yes.
(lively music)
(gadgets clatter)
(man 1) What are you? Huh?
Employee of the Day? Huh?
(laughing)
Now you do our work as well.
(man 1) What happened? Are you tired already?
Mr. Panth!
I have also made a picture.
Look at this.
(everyone laughing)
Wow, what a long tongue you have!
Use it to lick well.
(everyone continues laughing)
Look what your carrot did!
When carrots don't work, Hima, use a stick.
Are you going to hit them with a stick now?
No.
Just watch and learn.
-Mr. Panth. -Enough!
Your conduct with Mr. Panth is deemed illegal.
Therefore, the management has decided...
I mean, Hima has decided
that we are going to take strict action.
And if all these boxes aren't loaded by evening,
you all will be fired.
Everyone will be fired.
How...
Well, Hima madam, please say something.
Let's go, brothers. We have a lot of boxes to pack.
Yeah, that's the right attitude. Come on.
Give me the boxes over here.
Well done, Mr. Panth.
It's good that madam is busy with her video game.
Now, I can work in peace.
And I will take complete rest from work.
And we will also get a bonus. (claps)
What's going on, guys?
I had called a team meeting at 3:00 and...
-It's already 3:00. -But, madam, how come you are here?
We thought you would be playing your video game.
-Yes. -Video game?
Yes, it was on the table.
I mean, I saw it. All of us saw it. You saw it, right?
(in chorus) Yes, we saw it.
I think the thief got bored of playing the video game.
What are you saying?
The video game was stolen.
Madam... come with me; I'll show you.
-Yes, of course. -Come with me.
Yes, come. Of course.
(eerie music)
-It was right here. -Yes, it was right here.
Okay, guys, enough of this prank.
Let's forget about this game. This game has been stolen.
Madam, it's really been stolen this time, I swear.
What do you mean by "really been stolen"?
He means to say...
Wow, what an impressive robbery.
-This is what he is trying to say. -Yes.
Negi... look at me, Negi.
Negi. Negi!
Tell me the truth. What's the matter?
Madam, the thing is...
You all are such good-for-nothings.
You're lazy even when stealing.
-We are thank you, madam. -"Sorry".
-Welcome, madam. -Shut up!
It's the first time that the guests have been checked
on both arrival and departure in a hotel.
What is this, Bisht?
Our hotel's ratings are in the negative.
How can you guys be so stupid?
From tomorrow, all of you are working overtime.
Each one of you.
But, madam, will we get paid for overtime?
Of course, you will.
You'll certainly get it.
And with that bonus, I'll buy my video game.
Understood? Get back to work.
They've unpacked even the boxes that were already packed.
Sorry, Hima.
That's all they taught me in my MBA.
Either tempt them with a bonus.
Or threaten to fire them.
Dev, your MBA theories won't work here.
These are villagers.
We've lied to them twice.
Let's try telling them the truth once.
-(man 1) I don't want to do it. -(man 2) She's our girl.
-(man 2) Let's do it. -(man 1) No, I don't want to.
Stick to what you said.
-Okay? -They're coming.
I know that you all are upset.
But there are some things
that I want to genuinely share with all of you.
Go ahead.
In my childhood,
I used to feel very alone.
But there was one thing that was always with me.
And that was my dream.
A dream to own a business.
So that I'm not dependent on anyone.
I even went to study in Dehradun.
One day, I saw a truck with kaphal arrive there.
That day, I understood
that villages have more resources and talent than cities.
I came back, gathered the courage, and worked hard.
Only then could I establish this organic farm.
I'm aware that there's very little time.
And we're short of manpower too.
But I also know that
the day this work is completed,
all of you will get a bonus that day.
I request you all once again to think it through.
If you can come and work,
then please do.
Otherwise, don't worry about it.
(Hima crying)
(soft music)
Your hands will get dirty.
The sanitiser will be upset.
No problem. What's the worst that can happen?
I'll catch an infection. My hands will be amputated.
I'll bear with it.
Madam, we'll work together and grow together.
And a bonus for everyone on my behalf.
Forget it, sir.
We owe this much to madam.
Just take me to Mumbai once to meet Mithun.
I'm a big fan of his.
-I want to meet Govinda. -Yes, sure.
They are very good friends of mine.
-Thank you. -They visit my house often.
(Hima chuckles)
(stone clanks)
What games are you playing?
-You think this is a game? -What else?
I'm trying to start a fire
because we will have to spend the night here.
Otherwise, we will die of cold before the leopard hunts us down.
We're certainly going to die.
You know...
I always had a dream
that when I die, I'll die next to a good friend.
Thank you.
Now that dream will remain unfulfilled.
I'm just kidding.
You know what, Kripaal?
I remember our childhood very well.
But it was a very bad time of my life.
All the kids used to snatch all my expensive things.
They used to tie my hair in a ponytail
and tease me by pulling it and mocking me.
That's why...
I eventually stopped visiting the village during vacations.
Whenever I visited, I used to take back a lot of trauma.
But...
But you were the only friend, Kripaal,
who never mistreated me.
Thank you, friend.
Dagdiya...
You wouldn't have ever found out, but...
even I want to share something.
I used to provoke those boys.
And the ponytail idea...
was mine.
I...
These are our final moments.
So, I don't want to die with this burden.
And that is why...
Forgive me.
Please forgive me.
You've committed many sins, Kripaal.
(chuckling emotionally)
Not more than you.
(laughing)
Come on, rub them hard.
(indistinct conversation)
-(Dev) Yes, pass it. -It's written in this register...
Done? Last?
I'll look into this, You let it be.
(loud thud)
Mr. Panth.
Here are your logs.
-Thank you. -Hmm.
(grunts)
Your speech was very good today.
You spoke a lot about dreams.
Had you talked more about dreams, Panth would have dreamt of you.
(Hima laughs)
By the way, do you want to eat Maggi?
-I'm hungry for sure. -Isn't it?
There is an amazing point...
-Really? -It has an amazing view.
Let's!
(Hima) We can see the Milky Way from there.
A little bit to the left.
Left, this side.
No, a bit... To the right... a little...
Enough with the marching orders. Stop talking in English!
Tell me in Hindi, left or right?
Just when I get a break from Kalki, here comes Sushma!
All right, okay.
A little…
-left. -Oh, man!
I'm not doing it anymore.
-Brother, please... -Hurry up or madam will scold us.
We aren't getting food anyway. Might as well swallow some abuse.
(bell cart rolls in)
(footsteps approaching)
Here's your bonus.
What is this now?
An air fryer for you.
A new washing machine for Badoni.
And a hand massager for Bisht.
Okay. Madam, for me?
Uh... I'll teach you English personally.
Sorry, madam.
"Thank..." It's fine.
All right. Everyone worked very hard today.
Call it a day. You all really deserve a break.
(clears throat) Sorry, madam.
Your video game was stolen because of us.
It's okay.
I was anyways not going to play that video game again.
Because... you can only lose so many times.
(everyone chuckling)
How generous of you!
Well then, madam...
Will you play a game with us?
(leopard roars)
(shivering) Oh, man!
-Kripaal... -Yes?
My leg is hurting a lot because of the cold.
Please do me a favour.
-What? -If I die today,
then at my funeral...
only serve an 18-year-old blended single malt scotch.
My soul will never rest in peace if you serve cheap alcohol.
And if you have any doubt,
then ask my wife.
She has been planning my funeral for years.
What if I die?
So what?
We will hire another manager.
There's no shortage of labour in the village.
(loud gunshot)
(both) Bandits?
(Dev) Dad!
(Hima) Uncle Kripaal!
Dad!
Dev!
-(Hima) Uncle Kripaal! -Hima?
Over here!
-I knew that you'd come to save me. -Hima...
You'll never leave me to die with this rascal.
-Hey... -Dev, my son!
(scoffs) What a bastard!
-Dad, I have... -Dev!
-Easy. -Easy.
-(laughing) -Dad!
-Dev, my son. - Uncle!
-Thank God you came. -Are you okay?
Narrow miss!
I thought we were going to die in this jungle tonight.
-Come on, Dad. -But how did you track me?
So, we found a mobile, which played filthy songs.
And there were a few beer cans also. We did two plus two.
We also saw a signboard near Maggi point.
"Beware of leopard."
So we got them along.
See? My songs saved us.
Oh, please!
My beer cans saved us. You must listen carefully.
-Okay, enough, Dad. Shall we? -Yes, let's go.
-(Dev) Dad, please come. -(Hima) Let's go.
-Thank you, officer. -Thank God.
-(indistinct chatter) -Oh, God!
(birds chirping)
What is this?
Ma'am, this is called Pithu.
You hit the stone and run.
Nice.
Cheap bowling?
Something like that.
Let's go.
Come on.
(Hima's VO) Friendship is the only relationship,
where there are no rules.
(soulful music)
All that is there is unity.
Sometimes, it's found easily.
And sometimes, with great difficulty.
Sometimes, it's found at the right time.
And sometimes, at the worst time.
(soulful music continues)
(romantic song playing)
Now, this depends on you
how you make that friendship blossom.
-(romantic song continues) -(running footsteps)
(man) Ghost!
(door slams)
(Kalki gasping)
(Kalki and Sushma scream)
What happened? Why is everyone screaming so much?
(gasps) Ghost!
Thank God, it's a ghost. I thought it was a lizard.
Hey... what happened?
Ghost.
Who is it?
Hey! You...
Just...
(tense music)
What if Chammach Chaalisi...
(tense music intensifies)
(music fades out)
(man) We have found a new ghost in a hotel here.
(man 1) We've to do black magic.
-Then we're closing this hotel. -What?
If you're scared, tell Grandpa and quit this challenge.
Have you seen Dev anywhere?
All his girlfriends come to me.
I'm not his girlfriend.
That's what they all say.
Here's your mineral water, with maximum minerals.
You can't figure out the hills by living in a hill-view room.
Dev is a master in cookie-jarring.
She wants to distract me from the competition.
(Negi) How did this sandwich get grilled?
The grill machine has disappeared.
Where is everything disappearing to?
(Kalki and Sushma scream)
By the way, you must know why am I calling.
Grandpa, we are really sorry.
