Hey, give that to me.
- It seemed... - His story was far better.
It seemed like the sky was splitting.
- Give it to him, bro. - Hey, man. What are you doing?
And some particles started to come out.
- Give it to him. - Give it to me.
- Okay. You tell us. - Give it to him.
[Boy 1] 'I dare you to scare me.'
- You are going to get scared. - [Boy 1] We'll see.
[screaming]
Sunny?
[Title Montage]
Use more warm water, it'll be relaxing.
Your face looks extra radiant today.
Obviously, my star is returning home today.
I'm feeling like a real star mom.
Wow!
I'm sorry.
Stop it.
Sorry, madam. I had some free time, so...
[Kaamna] 'Your time may be free'...
...but this salon's electricity and hair products are not free.
So, obviously, I will have to deduct...
...the cost of this hair colour from your salary.
Madam, we used the leftover colour...
- ...that we'd have thrown, anyway. - Yes.
Kavita, I had asked you to do the inventory.
[Kaamna] 'Did you do it?'
Well, I... I will get to it right away.
- Madam. - Yes.
My mom is unwell.
I have to take her to the doctor.
So, may I take the rest of the day off?
May I?
Excuse me.
Sunny!
Hey! Oh! You missed me so much?
Whom are you looking for, Mom?
Why aren't the paps here?
Paps?
Those media guys who photograph...
...stars at the airport.
Well, Deepali ji, hope the shoot was smooth?
Well, it was a tough schedule, but I have to say...
...that Sunny has been absolutely amazing.
Everybody is impressed with his work...
...and his professional attitude.
Even Mr. Vikram said...
...that he is the best child artist he's ever worked with.
Really?
Dad, let's go.
Just a moment. At least say bye to Deepali ma'am.
Bye.
Bye, Sunny.
- I'm sorry. - No problem.
- Mom, let's go. - Yes.
Yes.
Deepali, I'll head now. I'll call you later.
Sure.
[Neelima] 'Yes, Janaki, I have reached.'
We will catch up in the evening. Bye.
Why are you quiet? How was your shoot?
It was good, Dad.
Good? It was amazing.
You know, they gave me a private car to go around.
Did you go there to chill or to take care of Sunny?
I didn't have to worry about Sunny with Mr. Vikram there.
[Neelima] 'Food, hotel... everything was taken care of.'
Mr. Vikram is the best producer in the industry.
Really? How many producers do you know?
Anyway, school starts from tomorrow and you have exams coming up.
There is a lot of backlog. I have spoken to Dhruv.
He will give you all the notes tomorrow.
It's not like he has to work an ordinary 9-5 job.
[Neelima] 'He will learn dance, martial arts'...
...he will go to the gym and build a good physique.
All things that'll help him in the future.
Yeah, just like they helped your daughter.
Could have... had she not fallen in love.
Well, her unfulfilled dreams...
...will be fulfilled by her son. Right?
We are here.
- Surprise! - Surprise!
And the award for best actor goes to my son, Sunny Vashisht.
[cheering]
Come.
[Seema] 'My hero!'
I missed you so much.
- Hi, Mom. - Hi.
Hey, I need a hug too.
Hi, di.
I missed you so much.
I have kept our room very clean, don't mess it up.
Okay.
- The hero is here. - [Sunny] 'What's up?'
You look amazing, bro.
You are going to be so popular at school.
All the girls in the class will throw themselves at you.
- Priya? Brother-in-law? - We will go later...
- How are you? - Fine.
- How are you, Bunny? - Fine, Uncle.
You did not tell me that you were coming to Mumbai.
Seema wanted to keep it a secret. Even from you.
I wouldn't dare to not follow her instructions.
[Boy 2] 'Sunny, let's take a selfie.'
- Smile. - Come on, click the picture.
Brother, I never thought that someone from our family...
...would work in Bollywood movies.
Yes, but don't praise him too much...
...or he'll stop focussing on studies.
Don't worry, Brother.
Take this. I will give you more. Raghav.
He is still a kid.
- Just a moment, I'll be back. - Yes.
Go and click some pictures with your brother.
Give me 2000 rupees.
- Auntie, cold drink. - Here you go.
Thank you.
- Thank you. - Okay.
Have you won the lottery?
I won it 15 years ago when Sunny was born.
Seema, you could've asked me before doing all this.
I knew you'd say no.
As always. That is why I didn't bother.
Seema, you are aware of everything.
You know we've been in a tight spot for the past few months.
I'm aware.
But now that Sunny's film is completed...
...we will get the remaining payment.
We can use that to easily cover up petty expenses like these.
Seema, we are not in the condition to splurge.
You don't seem to comprehend our situation.
I haven't paid the electricity bill for the past two months.
The landlord has increased the rent.
Instead of thinking about it, you...
Stop it, man. I'm fed up of listening to this.
There have been very few happy days in my life.
Please don't spoil this day.
Sunny! Come here!
Here you go.
Mom, I'll be back in some time.
Okay, you must be tired. Freshen up and come back soon.
Mom, now that we've cut the cake, I'll also leave.
I need to go to Anisha's party.
Okay.
Bye.
Do you need a ride?
[Sunny] 'One second.'
[Vikram] 'Hey, champ! Time to do our lines!'
Sunny! Hey...
We threw this party for you, and you are sitting here alone.
Come on, let's go downstairs and show off a little.
I'm tired, Mom.
What happened?
You look more upset than tired.
Did something happen at the shoot?
Is the trailer out?
- Hey... - What...
- What happened? - What happened, son?
I'm sorry, Dad. I'm sorry, Mom.
[Sunny] 'One second.'
[Vikram] 'Hey, champ!'
[Vikram] 'Time to do our lines!'
'Not bad, looking good today. Shall we?'
[Sunny] 'Sir, I don't like this.'
[Vikram] 'You will eventually start to like it.'
[Vikram] 'Don't worry.'
[Sunny] 'But I don't want to.'
[Vikram] 'Come on, Sunny. Yeah.'
What is all this?
What is this, Sunny?
[Vikram] 'That's my boy.'
'Look, I told you. Having fun now, aren't we?'
[Vikram] 'I'll see you on set.'
What is this?
I'm sorry, Mom.
- Really? - Why would I lie?
I've uploaded all the photos from Sri Lanka.
You can follow me and see them...
- Mom, come with me! - What happened?
Come.
Hey, what happened?
Just come with me!
Let go of me! Raghav!
What are you doing...
Will you tell me what is wrong?
You dragged me up those stairs unnecessarily.
What was the purpose of you going to Sri Lanka?
[Neelima] 'What?'
Did you go on a vacation?
All my life...
...you've been taunting me for failing at my responsibilities...
...and when it was your turn, you zoomed off in a private car.
Seema, what is he saying?
What have I done?
Actually, you have not done anything.
All of this has happened because of your daughter.
You are the cause for all of this.
All your expectations, unfulfilled dreams...
...that you wanted to fulfil through Sunny, but you know what?
You will never be able to dream after today.
Because after today, sleep will evade you forever.
[Seema sobbing]
[screaming]
[Priya] 'Brother'...
...why did you leave the party?
Seema is also strangely quiet. Even Sunny went to bed early.
Is everything okay?
Everything is fine.
Do you know...
...why you'd always get in trouble with our parents...
...when we were younger?
[Priya] 'Because you've always been a bad liar.'
- Is it about Meghna? - No.
That's a problem that you'll have to deal with, all your life.
There is no way around it.
But today is a happy day.
Yes.
Don't spoil your mood because of those things.
I'm fine. Don't worry.
[Raghav] 'Good night.'
[Priya] 'Take this hot poori.'
That's enough, Mom.
Have it, or you will be hungry on the way.
- How much will you feed him? - Here's one for you.
- No. I don't want it. - [Priya] 'Have it.'
You didn't have to go through all this trouble.
I would have made something.
Come on, don't treat me like a guest.
Good morning.
- Good morning, Shreyu. - Good morning, di.
- My honeybun. - Come.
Have some hot poori aloo.
Aunt, one poori has 101 calories.
So?
Out of them, 67 are only fat. So, no thanks.
[Priya] 'Kids these days'...
- Mom. - Yes?
Sorry, I couldn't call you back last night.
Actually, my phone died.
I didn't call you.
Right.
Never mind, I was safe.
I was at Anisha's house. I came back home by 4:00 AM.
Shreyu, at least have some tea...
[clears throat]
Priya, let's go. We'll get late for the bus.
Yeah.
I'll call Raghav.
Come on, finish your food.
Come on, son, we are getting late for the bus.
Hold this bag.
I'll call you once I reach Pune.
I've made aloo poori. Don't forget to eat it.
Take care.
Come on, let's go.
Where are you going?
School.
Exams are coming up, and there is a lot of backlog.
Dad, about the video...
Please don't tell anyone. Not even Shreya di.
Come, sit for a moment.
Listen to me carefully.
You are not the one at fault here.
I might not have done anything significant for you till date.
But I will make sure that man is punished for his actions.
And that's a promise.
You must be excited to go to school today, right?
No. Why?
To show off, why else!
What's up with you?
Nothing.
I thought you'll come back even more annoying.
[Shreya] 'But you seem a little off?'
I'm just tired, di.
Tired? How?
I mean, you should be so excited, Sunny.
You got such a big break at such a young age...
...and that too, with just one audition. Okay, tell me something.
Which was the most challenging scene for you?
Was it the one where you find out that your Superdad...
...won't be able to save you?
- Yes. - How many takes did you take?
I don't remember. Maybe two.
You nailed such a difficult scene in just two takes...
...and you're saying it so sulkily.
Come on, cheer up, go to school and show off.
Such golden opportunities come by very rarely.
- Okay, I'll freshen up. - Okay.
Hey, Sunny, I can't be late! Sunny!
- What are you doing? - What do you think?
Sunny, there is no need to go to school today.
Yes, but I want to go.
Okay, just give me some time, I...
Don't you have to go to the parlour today?
No, I have taken the day off.
It's okay. I'll go.
None of my classmates' parents come to drop them anyway.
- [Sunny] 'Bye, Dad.' - Bye, son. Take this.
Maybe, if he goes to school, he will...
Forget it?
What else did he say?
He said nobody other than us should find out about this.
[Raghav] 'Not even Shreya.'
Where are you going?
Finally guilty?
[Shreya] 'Well, better late than never.'
I'm going to audition for a web series.
Don't you have to go to college?
Yes, but I have to go to the audition, right?
There's no need. Concentrate on your studies.
Change your clothes and go to college.
Hold on.
If you show any more concern, I might just cry, Mom.
Shreya.
I know you doubt whether I'll pass my exams...
...or crack any auditions.
But you know what? Don't worry. I'll crack both. Okay? Bye.
Shreya. Shreya!
Freshen up and go to the parlour.
[Raghav] 'You'll keep thinking about it over and over again'...
...if you sit at home idly.
I can't go to the parlour.
I quit my job yesterday.
Good morning, students.
For today's assembly, I want to invite...
...someone very special on the stage...
...who's married his dreams with his hard work...
...'to set an example for all of you.'
Shaurya Vashisht, please come on stage.
Shaurya! Shaurya, where are you?
Sir, he is here.
Dude, go.
So, Sunny, tell us, and I'm sure everybody here wants to know.
How does it feel to be working in Bollywood?
Fine.
And how does it feel to be working with my favourite, Vikram Bajaj?
[Principal] 'I mean, in this nepotistic industry'...
...'he is an outsider.'
He came from nowhere and reached the top.
He is very kind, nice...
...humble, and caring.
I'm sure... I'm sure he is.
In your photos in newspapers and on social media...
...you guys look like real father and son.
[Principal] 'Real father and son.'
[Vikram] 'I told you, having fun now, aren't we?'
[Principal] 'We are very proud of you, Shaurya.'
[Vikram] 'Aren't we?'
[Principal] 'Students, let's hear a huge round of applause'...
...'for our very own superstar.'
[Vikram] 'Having fun now, aren't we?'
Stop here, on the left.
Here you go.
[laughing]
Hello, sir.
- Good morning, sir. - Good morning.
Excuse me.
Sunny!
Mom!
Hi, Auntie.
Bro, I'll meet you tomorrow. Bye.
I told you, nobody's parents come to school.
You said not to drop you off...
...but you didn't say anything about picking you up.
Come on.
Come.
Excuse me. Are you Sunny's mother?
- Yes. - Hi, I'm Anita.
Congrats on Sunny's first film.
[Woman 1] 'Such a big deal, isn't it?'
She is my daughter, Kushi. She is also fond of acting.
We were thinking that if she starts doing some ads, web shows...
...or a big film like Sunny...
...then it will probably be easier going ahead.
By the way, how did Sunny get this film?
Does anyone in your family work in Bollywood?
No, the casting agent saw Sunny at the mall...
...and just contacted us.
- Mall? Seriously? - Auto.
We are always at the mall, but no one notices us.
Well, can you share that agent's contact number?
It's getting late. We'll catch up some other time.
Auto.
Focus on your academics first, everything else can come later.
Come, Sunny.
You could have smiled a bit. Come on.
[cell phone vibrating]
- Manish, just have a look. - Yes.
- Hello. - Hello.
Irfan Akhtar?
[Irfan] 'Yes, speaking.'
I want to...
[Raghav] 'Actually, I have a story.'
And I wanted to talk to you about it...
Hello, Irfan Akhtar?
Yes, go ahead. What is the story about?
It's about an actor.
Bollywood actor?
Yes.
What's your name?
Raghu... Raghav.
[Raghav] 'Raghav Vashisht.'
Raghav Vashisht!
Which actor are you talking about? Is he famous?
Yeah, very famous.
And he has done something heinous.
What is his name?
Sir, his name is...
[knock on door]
Who is it? I'm busy!
[Fatima] 'Sir, your son is here.'
Sir, I'll call you later.
Hello. Hello?
Come.
Hi, Dad.
