You should forgive Mansi, son.
She is too immature to understand what to say when.
And she had no right to say those things.
She has every right, mom.
Where there's love, people feel free to say what's on their mind.
And I love every member of this family.
You have a heart of gold!
I wish everyone could see it.
Come on, sir.
You made your mom cry.
No. He's always the reason behind my smile.
By the way, Jhende. I hardly see you these days.
You keep following Arya around.
You never spare the time to come home and talk to me.
Ma'am, I...
Excuse me... - Jhende.
Don't answer the call.
Stay right here.
Wait.
Put your hand out.
This thread has been consecrated.
It will protect you from every harm.
That's so unfair.
You gave your blessing to your son.
What about his loyal servant?
How is this fair?
Can a mother ever be unfair?
Come here.
Put your hand out.
You deserve double the blessings.
You have taken on the responsibility of protecting Arya
like Lord Hanuman protected Lord Rama.
Hang on. Gopi!
This is for you, Jhende.
Even I have got something for you.
This is for you. - What is this?
See for yourself. Please sit.
'Rajnandini Saris'
Rajnandini Saris!
Yes, mom. This is one of our brands.
Do you know?
When I got married and came to live here,
your dad wove a sari
with his own hands and gave one to me.
Tell me something.
What gave you the idea to give me a handwoven sari as a gift?
This is not my idea.
I got this idea from a noble and sweet family I met.
They wanted to give this sari
as a gift to Mrs Vardhan.
They gave it to me
and I am just handing it over to you.
Thank that family from me.
My Rajnandini...
Forget shopping, this is not even enough to warm me up for shopping!
Mansi! - Excuse me.
I'm not Mansi to you.
Address me as Mansi ma'am.
I'm sorry, ma'am.
I filled out the amount Arya sir
authorised me to fill in this cheque.
If you need a larger amount than this,
you will have to personally request Arya sir.
Do you even know who I am and where I belong?
Girls in my family are taught how to pass orders.
We don't know how to make requests.
We're taught how to show attitude, not respect.
This house and this property belong to us.
Go and tell your boss, the great Aryavardhan,
that this is an order from Mansi. I need a bigger cheque than this.
I'm sorry. I can't do that.
Right. Not just you,
nobody can do it.
You know what? When one has the misfortune to marry a man
who is good-for-nothing,
they can't go around passing orders.
When couples get married, they say it's a match made in heaven.
But I'm sure our match was surely made in hell.
Meera, what are you doing here?
Yes, sir. I came here to give ma'am a cheque.
Good. - What's good about it?
Did you look at the amount on the cheque, Harsh?
I give more as a tip at my mom's place.
Harsh! Do something!
That's what I'm doing.
I just got a great business idea.
'Great! We need to brace ourselves for another loss-making deal.'
What do you mean?
Look at this. I had this amazing idea. We can sell cow urine.
We can rule this industry by selling it.
Even the priest was saying the same thing.
Anything that is touched by cow urine turns to gold!
Harsh, unfortunately, whatever you touch
turns to dust!
Every businessman makes a profit and loss statement.
But you only make a loss statement.
Have you already forgotten about the parliament house scam?
And now, you want to sell cow urine!
Darling, I'm not really cut out for real estate. That's why.
You know what, Harsh? You are not cut out for any field.
It seems the screws have come loose in your brain!
Only a miracle can fix you.
You're right!
And do you know what has miraculous powers?
Cow urine.
That's the only thing that can change my fate. Cow urine!
Right. - Harsh!
Forget all that and do something about the cheque amount.
Talk to Arya... - Arya must have filled in the right amount.
Ma'am, if you want a cheque with a higher amount,
you will have to directly talk to Arya sir.
We are making huge profits in the new recharge scheme.
It was my son's business idea.
It was bound to be a success.
'Oh, God! It's getting a bit too much now, mother.'
'As soon as Arya sets foot in the house,'
'mother begins to sing his praises.'
'Glory to Arya!'
Mom.
Arya, I have a new business idea.
Again!
It hasn't been long since your last failed business idea.
Take a breather, son. Let your mind rest for a bit.
When it comes to me, why does everyone doubt my calibre?
I can come up with good ideas too.
Harsh is right, mom.
We shouldn't demoralise him.
Tell me, Harsh. What's the business idea?
Gaupee Gold!
Sir! My name is Gopi!
Are you saying that I'm as good as gold?
Gopi, come on. I didn't name this business idea after you.
It's Gaupee.
'Gau' means cow and pee means urine.
And gold means gold. I was saying Gaupee Gold.
Cow urine gold!
That's what the priest said, didn't he?
He said cow urine is like the philosopher's stone!
It turns everything that touches it into gold.
That's what we'll do!
I'm surprised no one has had this idea before.
We can sprinkle cow urine on the Eiffel Tower.
And it will turn into gold!
How do you like the idea, Arya?
Listen, son.
Don't do anything without asking Arya first.
Arya.
I just took a breath.
I'll breathe out only if you permit me to do so.
Mansi, what are you saying?
I'm just telling the truth, mother.
Nothing happens in this house unless Arya gives his permission.
Mansi! You're sounding like a child right now!
Really, mother?
If I'm sounding like a child, you're sounding like a devotee!
Arya, why don't you have your idol put up in our house?
We will pray in front of it all day long.
In fact, I already have a name for the religion
we will have in your name.
Aryavardhanism!
This world might work according to God's will.
But our family works only according to your will.
The cheque clears only if you give the go-ahead.
You decide how much amount to give to whom. Right?
It's not fair, mom. - Mansi!
Mansi is right, mom.
This house, this business, the money...
It belongs to all of you.
I think we should let Harsh do what he wants.
And Mansi should get the amount she wants.
Thank you, God... No. Thank you, my lord.
I didn't think you'd answer my prayer so quickly!
Thank you so much!
Mansi, what is so wrong about explaining to Arya
where we spend the money he gives us?
He is doing all this for our sake.
Really, mother? Is this all for our sake?
Wasn't that a bit too much?
I mean... People put filters on the pictures they post online.
But Arya seems to have put a filter on his image.
All of this is an act, mother. Just an act.
The reality is far different from it.
Mansi, that's enough.
Arya, please...
Arya...
My son came home after so long.
You didn't even let him finish two morsels in peace.
Are you happy now?
When someone troubles such a good person
the consequences are bound to be bad.
I'm sure Arya sir lives in a big mansion.
I'm sure they are not able to hear the phone ringing.
Let me try one more time.
Let me see if Arya is okay or not.
'Anu's mom'
Anu's mom...
Hello, sir! This is Anu's mom speaking.
I'm sorry for disturbing you so late at night, sir.
I just called to ask you if you got a chance
to talk to Anu about getting married or not.
Sir, you know how worried I am about getting Anu married.
But she is not ready to listen to me.
But she holds you in very high regard.
That's why I am insisting that you should talk to her about marriage.
Sir, please hold on.
Listen. I'm not Arya. I'm Arya's mom.
Hey, you! What's your problem? This is not a circus.
Go away!
Sir, I just called to say that please talk
to Anu about marriage as soon as possible.
I'll hang up now. Anu's dad is calling.
Listen...
Was that woman talking about getting a girl called Anu
married to Arya?
If that is the case,
then happiness will come knocking once again in Arya's life!
But who is Anu?
I have to find out.
No!
Anu, what happened? - What's wrong?
What happened, Anu? Is everything okay?
What happened? - What's wrong, Anu?
Are you okay?
Pushpa, can you get a glass of water for Anu? - Yes.
Anu, it's alright. We're right here. There's no need to be scared.
Pushpa. - Yes.
Today is 'ashthami'.
It seems Anu had the same nightmare again.
'The day of 'asthami' will be a hard day for her.'
'She will have the same nightmare every time on that night.'
'She will be terrified. But you shouldn't get scared.'
'Apply this on her forehead. Everything will be fine.'
Wait right here.
Anu, listen.
I've applied the 'kumkum' consecrated by the Goddess.
You don't need to be scared.
You won't have that nightmare again.
Please don't cry, my dear.
Don't cry, sweetheart.
Anu... - Anu, you should sleep on the bed.
Come on. Let's go there. - Come on. Get up.
Careful.
Don't worry, sweetheart. We're here with you.
Mom. Dad. I'm unable to sleep. I'm feeling anxious.
Do you remember what we used to do when
Anu was little and she couldn't sleep?
"Let me ward off the evil eye."
"Let me give you my blessings."
"Let me bring cartfuls of joy for you!"
"May you have sweet dreams."
"May they help you slip into a sweet slumber."
"Let me fulfil every wish of yours."
"I will ask the stars and the moon"
"to watch over you all night as you sleep."
Pushpa, I thought 'ashthami' was an auspicious day
when the Goddess blessed everyone.
Then why does our daughter get this punishment every 'ashthami'?
The Goddess doesn't do anything without reason.
I'm sure there is a reason why this happens.
But I can't bear to see my daughter in distress.
To hell with fear.
Our daughter doesn't need to be scared of anything.
Her parents are here to protect her from every harm.
'You wanted to talk to me. - Yes.'
'I want to ask you something.'
'Will you tell me the truth?'
'Have I ever hidden anything from you? - No.'
'That's why I'm asking you.'
'Who is Anu?'
'How do you know about Anu?'
'Instead of answering my question with another question,'
'give me an answer.'
'Who is Anu?'
'She works at our office.'
'Aryavardhan sir appointed her a few days ago.'
'Did Arya appoint her himself?'
'That means, she's special. Right?'
'No, ma'am. She is not special.'
'She is a new recruit. So, Arya sir talks to her sometimes.'
'He just motivates her. That's it.'
'If Arya thinks so much about her, I'm sure she is special.'
'It's not what you think, ma'am.'
'You don't need to tell me what to think.'
'I can finally understand what's happening.'
'I'll ask the rest of the questions to Arya.'
Pushpa, I don't know the reason why this is happening.
But I can't bear to see Anu in pain.
Every time I see her in this condition,
I'm reminded of her childhood.
She used to wake up sweating in the middle of the night.
We used to sit next to her for hours,
but her anxiety and distress didn't wane.
Years passed, and Anu grew up.
But this anxiety never left her.
What is the reason? What is the mystery?
When will the curse of the 'ashthami' night
be lifted from Anu's life?
Oh, Goddess!
Please take away Anu's pain! Give that pain to me instead!
Gopal.
You claim to be very strong.
But when it comes to Anu, you become helpless.
Pushpa, no matter how strong a man is,
he could never see his daughter in pain.
Pushpa.
Let us take her to the doctor once again.
Of course! If one has a stomachache, one should see the doctor.
What are you talking about?
Gopal! Look around before you talk about such things.
Someone could be eavesdropping!
Anu is a girl.
If anyone finds out that there is something wrong with her,
she will never get married.
Pushpa, why does everything have to be connected to Anu's marriage?
I am not the only one who thinks like that.
This is how every mother thinks.
Then, let me tell you what a father thinks.
I can accept anything, but I will never accept someone
who makes my daughter feel as if she is inadequate.
I will never let my daughter marry into a family
where they weigh her qualities against her flaws.
I will get her married into a family
where she is accepted wholeheartedly,
with her qualities as well as flaws.
If she falls short somewhere, everyone should stand by her.
I don't want a family that abandons her.
Alright, fine. Find a family like that for her.
Let's go to sleep now.
It's quite late already.
Pushpa, will everything be alright? - Yes. I'm sure.
Let's go.
Did your mom talk to you about Anu?
No.
Why are you asking me that?
Yesterday, she called me.
She was asking me a few questions about Anu.
Come on, Jhende!
Why did you tell mom about this?
Should I have lied to her?
That's not... - Look. I just answered your mom's questions.
You can explain the rest to her.
Jhende... - Listen. A word of advice.
You better put your seat belt on and wear a helmet.
Keep your protective shield handy.
You know it is impossible to dodge your mom's questions.
Look. I'm getting a call.
Hello.
'Before mom has and misconceptions about Anu and me,'
'I need to talk to Anu.'
'I have to convince her to get married to Vipin.'
