Dhruv, baby what's your plan for today?
What plan, Nidhi?
Okay...
For the first time I'm missing the Mumbai traffic.
I'd be driving slowly to work at this hour.
Okay, Dhruv, get up.
- It's 8 am... - 8!
I worked there for 8 years, Nidhi.
And they just fired me.
- Okay. - Unbelievable!
- Baby, things happen and... - Nidhi,
do you think I should take this bottle of wine to Vedant?
We'll get drunk and I'll get my job back.
Okay, just give me the bottle.
Just give me the... No!
Come.
Hey!
Look here.
What the hell are you doing to our children on a Sunday morning, Vikrant?
You are so weird!
This is viral not weird.
I've already opened their social media page. Check out Twin Tales.
Look at this.
- Great! - They better start early.
Sunita, please get them changed.
Mom, dad is a liar.
Bowling Alley is open. See!
We need to deactivate high speed internet right away.
Anything I say to her, she runs and checks.
It was so much easier for our parents.
They could lie to us anytime they wanted.
Yeah but why don't you want to take her?
I'm feeling very tired.
It's Sunday and we have potluck tonight.
Why can't we all just relax and chill
- as a family. - Okay.
Plus, it's also happy shower Sunday.
That is true.
I don't understand. What is this?
Sources of inspiration, Pammi.
Look at them every day and you'll also want to be like them.
Did you trash my painting?
No, I put them aside.
Look,
I don't want this. I just don't! Take it all off.
Okay, don't get so overwhelmed.
Let's just keep Naomi's picture. She's become my favourite.
Pammi, you're my favourite. She's my second favourite.
Dhruv!
Nidhs, if I squint really hard, I can see my office building.
Dhruv, tonight's the potluck. Will you please gather yourself?
Cancel it, Nidhs.
I can't face dad. I feel like such a loser.
Have this, you'll feel better.
I didn't make it.
Nice?
What day is it?
The security patch was to release today.
Don't keep it...
I need to check if my security patch is working.
Dhruv, what are you doing? They'll handle it.
Nidhs, it's my life's work.
What the hell!
They've revoked my security clearance. How can they do this?
How can you do this?
From depression you were supposed to go to acceptance. Hold this.
Why are you going back to anger?
I have not forgotten my password.
A grief cycle can repeat several times before one fully accepts it.
Repeat several times!
I can't do this.
Hello, Vikrant.
What happened?
Yes.
Okay.
- What happened? - It's Dhruv.
He's not doing too well with this whole getting fired bit.
I need to go there.
Yes.
You should go.
You know what?
I'll take Ziu bowling.
Aunts Nidhi and Prerna can join us too!
- Okay. - Wow!
Girls' day out!
- Okay, that's not a bad idea actually. - I'll get ready.
- Quickly, okay? - Have fun.
- Bye. - Mom's just coming.
Well, I'll call Alim.
-We can have like a boys hang out scene. -Okay then.
Hey, but what about our happy shower Sunday?
Redeemable at your nearest bathroom tonight.
Admit one, wow!
- Have fun. - Bye.
Bye.
Right.
Let's go, Ziu.
Mangla, where are my pink slippers?
In the dustbin. You're welcome.
If anything happens to my fur babies, you're dead, Govind.
For the last time, don't you dare touch my stuff.
Pammi, come look at this video.
Start wearing heels and get used to them.
You'd be able to walk, run and sleep in heels. Just see how they...
Let me guess.
Is this also part of the pageant training?
Absolutely.
Mangla!
- Yes? - Take this.
- And get me 'aloo paratha'. - Oh god!
I got it.
Change is never easy.
When I became the CEO,
the board of directors warned me,
'you're fired' pranks have to stop now.
It felt strange for a few days then I got used to it. You will too.
Govind, for the last time, I have just joined the pageant.
So stop making a big deal of it already.
- But at least... - Ma'am, 'parathas' for you.
- Thank you. - Just look at it.
- Mangla... - Go easy.
You're done.
- Stay off my stuff. - Okay.
Oh okay.
Suburban Chapas pamper pack was a rather great idea.
I did not expect
myself to be enjoying this so much.
Pleasantly surprised.
Oh I'm really glad.
Anyway it's the least I can do since
you're going to hang out with my brothers.
I really like your brothers. I think they're very cool.
But can't just we hang together?
We're anyway going to Dhruv's tonight for the famous
Shastri family's esteemed potluck.
I'm sorry but
I'll make it up to you tonight.
We could do something after the potluck?
Could we slowly
Aalim!
Steadily, intimately read your book?
C'mon Aalim!
If a boyfriend wants to read his girlfriend's book, how is that annoying?
Please change the topic.
Show me the colours please.
- Thank you. - Okay.
Let's just enjoy this moment. You show it to me whenever you're ready.
Thanks.
You should go for couple therapy.
Excuse me?
Couple's massage therapy.
- Aunt... - Zia,
draw power and precision fluid movement.
That's all you need to bowl.
- Okay? - Remember,
you want to bowl, be the ball.
Oh be the ball!
- Be the ball? - Watch and learn.
Yes.
Ziu, maybe be another ball.
Move.
Are you ready? Give me a high five for luck.
Thank you.
Okay.
Yes.
Not bad.
Look at it. Two pinned.
Whoa!
Oh god!
How did she do this?
I believe she was using raw power and
- Precision fluid movement. - Yes!
Mom was the ball!
Yes, I was.
Maybe you should let the kid bowl, ladies.
Zia can't bowl, dad.
Excuse me?
Zia, who's that?
Daksh Mathur and his father.
No one talks to my daughter like that.
It's on.
Like Donkey Kong.
C'mon Ziu.
You've got this, c'mon.
Cheers.
Man this is so relaxing!
Finally a day without kids, endless work calls.
Always being wrong.
Right, sir.
Gentlemen, we shall now indulge the age old tradition
of drinking in the afternoon.
- Yeah. - Thank you, sir.
Go on.
Kick off!
It's okay, sweetheart.
- Yes! - Very good, Daksh.
Decided?
- About? - To move in or not to move in?
Nidhi, you know everything.
I do but he doesn't. Tell him.
I don't know how he'll react
to me feeling that we're rushing into things
and like I'm comparing this to my last relationship.
He agreed to not moving in then why risk it?
Here we go.
Mom wants you to focus
and get as many as you can, okay?
C'mon, Ziu.
It's okay, two is not bad.
Can I bowl in her stead?
Unfortunately that won't help.
Ready?
Gutter.
Five!
Yeah.
Dhruv, man! Wow, it smells great.
Bro, if you're not interested, we can watch something else.
You guys can watch.
You know, Aalim!
I was in a very long relationship before Akanksha.
Deepika?
And then she dumped me.
She dumped you?
And you got a mohock, right?
Yes, I got a mohock. I did what everybody does.
I'd cry to old film songs.
Basically, I thought I'd never find love.
And then you met Akanksha.
Yeah but I never found love.
- Really? - Dhruv,
what I'm getting at is that years later I met Deepika
and all I kept thinking was thank god we didn't get married.
Not that she's a bad person or anything.
Because we would've been miserable together.
Believe me, in 6 months you'll be ecstatic
thank god they fired me and now I'm so happy.
Old things have to move out to make way for new things.
But I'm sad today.
Please cook.
Find happiness is serving us.
We'll be happy.
- We're winning. - Yes.
Mom, whatever happens I still love you.
And I love you more.
But I will love you more if we win.
How will we win?
Calm down.
If you get two strikes in the last turn, you can get another chance.
- We might have a shot. - Okay.
- I think I'm just going to... - Please put the strike...
Mom, we can do it.
Yes, we can.
We're going to try, okay?
Babe, we got this.
No, Rupali. Govind just took the joke too seriously. You know Govind.
Pammi, look.
48 likes in 2 hours. My highest.
- Rupali, I'll just call you back. - Look, Pammi.
Look.
People are calling you inspiration for the middle aged!
- Oh my god! - Yes.
Wait till this picture goes viral then you'll be the top influencer.
I'll be your manager and we'll be a power couple.
Enough, Govind! Please delete this photo and stop getting involved.
I was to tell the kids over the potluck tonight.
What if they had found out like this with this awful photo?
What are you saying? You don't want me as your manager?
This is not about you, Govind?
I'm participating in Mrs Meadows!
You take up new activities every week.
Do I just get involved in it?
I never told you not to.
I told you so you can support me
not to embarrass me before 250 followers like this.
Pammi!
Sorry.
Don't be angry.
I was trying to cheer you up.
But anyway, I'll delete it.
I'll just press this and...
Can I wait for 50 likes? Just 50
Just 2 more.
Pammi!
Just 2!
I've never hit so many likes!
C'mon, Akanksha.
- We're going to win. - Yeah.
Akanksha!
- Yeah! - Ziu,
you take the shot.
I can't do this. I won't make us win.
That's the point.
The aim of coming bowling today was not to win.
Okay?
It was to have fun with my Ziu.
Go, Ziu.
C'mon, you can do it.
That's it. Concentrate.
Yes.
- It's okay, my sweetheart. - It's okay, Ziu. It's fine.
You tried. We'll do better next time.
I should've taken that shot.
Give me a hi-five.
We had so much fun. It was your first day bowling.
Yeah!
So Dhruv, what's your week looking like?
Actually, I have some interviews lined up.
But somehow I'm not very excited.
What?
I'm trying to think of something
relevant story from my life which I can
tell you and you can resonate but I can't think of anything.
Nothing's coming to mind.
You know what, bro? Save the story for Prerna.
Give me your honest opinion.
I think you're just over thinking it.
I mean put yourself out there. See what's on offer.
If you get the job, you can decide if you want to take it.
If you don't get it, who knows!
Maybe you'll discover something new about yourself.
You know what? I think you're right.
I worked in one firm for 8 years. I don't even know what's outside.
Maybe I'm going to try.
Dhruv!
Dhruv, the TV's not working.
What did you do?
Are you crazy? I'm sitting here quietly.
You never do that.
Please mend the TV.
Everything can't be my fault.
I can't get a break, dude. Not one day I can get a break.
- Ziu, wait. - Sunita, put the kids to bed.
I'll also come there.
Akanksha, all this bowling must've made you very sweaty.
We should take a shower.
Good idea.
I'll go now?
I smell something yummy.
Must be the barbecue sauce I used.
I'm talking about you, dummy!
Did you tell dad?
- Dhruv. - I'm scared.
Just tell him. It'll be fine.
My beloved children.
- Oh my god! - How are you doing?
- Nothing much, uncle. - What do you mean?
Next week you'll complete one year of dating.
It's your first anniversary.
- We must do something. - Oh my god
you're so right. It has been a year.
Wow, dad, you remember. Well done.
All of us...
No, ignore him. It's you and me.
I'll plan something.
- It's on me. - What do you mean?
Don't I invite you for my anniversary?
- Dad, that's different. - How's it different?
- Do you want to do this right now? - Yes...
I like the kebabs the most.
- Did you make them? - Yes.
- It's very nice. - Very nice.
The kebabs are superb.
What did you make?
- I made... - Excuses.
Wow, mom. Mrs Meadows Mumbai, sounds amazing.
Really? A beauty pageant?
Mom, are you serious? That's so regressive.
- I mean, Maya Angelou once said... - You keep quiet.
- Beauty pageants are the best. - Correct.
Mom, be serious from the first day of competition.
- Don't befriend anyone. - Relax.
Every competition is not war.
So, mom, what are all the rounds?
Talent round.
I think you should totally do bowling.
And I'll teach you.
I'm very good at it.
No!
Aunt Nidhi is very bad at it.
She lost today.
- Got you! - Nidhi!
Mom, I think you should sing.
Oh my god, guys! Are you serious?
Pammi, I think you should juggle.
You juggle your moods all day anyway.
Okay, one second. Mom, you're having a mid-life crisis.
You don't say the same thing when Govind does things.
What do I do?
No, I'm just saying it's okay if you're having a midlife crisis.
If you want to explore yourself
do something deeper not like a superficial beauty pageant.
Okay.
Mom, what Prerna means to say is
we never saw you do something like this.
It's slightly uncharacteristic of you.
- Correct. - We're all with you.
I'll just go and get some dessert.
- Prerna! - What?
Dude, what the hell?
What? I was just being honest.
Prerna, man!
- What? - Bit too mean you know.
Think before you speak.
Can you be a little more sensitive?
I think she felt bad.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
Cotton candies, my favourite.
That's butter scotch for Dhruv.
Mom,
don't listen to everybody, okay?
Do what makes you happy.
You know maybe she's right.
Guess I'm
Done? Demotivated already?
Mom, everyone in this family has opinions.
You're doing something for yourself so do it.
You sure?
- It won't look silly, right? - Silly?
Right now your competition is like shivering.
They're like cancel everything and send her the trophy home.
- Okay, I'll do it. - Do it.
C'mon!
Are you all right?
Yes, dad.
I know about your job.
Pramilla told me.
That's okay.
I'll say something if I may.
Losing your job
was the best thing that has happened to you.
Come home next week.
This calls for a one-on-one.
We'll talk.
No big deal.
Each of us was looking for something.
From self-worth
to identity.
But for a change, I was okay.
I have found what I was looking for.
Mom!
Coming, baby.
Yeah, baby?
- I wanna pee. - Just coming, dear.
I can't get a break man!
