This is Pimmi's brother from Muscat.

Rahul, come here!

Its okay, it's okay.

Hello, young man. How are you?

Have you got the blue box?

So, excited?

Soon to be in family way!

So, you like India?

Yeah.

Better than Houston, no?

Good, good, good.

India needs young men like you.

Yes, computer engineers

are India's biggest export.

Am I a coolie or what?

Bhai-sahab,

what would you like to drink?

Scotch, please on the "rockiolis. "

"Rockiolis" means ice?

Two lumps, exactly.

Exactly.

I'll have the same, thanks.

Uh "rockioli. "

Rahul, two whiskies here.

Two cubes of ice exactly.

Oh, my goodness. Look at you!

How lovely you look.

Rockioli, rockioli.

Mrs. Rai over there.

Hi. Congratulations.

Hi.

Hi.

Hi. How are you?

Fine.

I must have another drink.

Rahul, idiot, come here.

Come here and hold

the camera. Listen.

Look at them.

How handsome Hemant is.

Come on, put it on.

Camera on!

On the ring!

Thank you.

Just in time!

This is Varun?

He's almost a young man.

How did you manage? I sent Rahul

to airport, told me flight was late.

No, it was not late. Nobody was there

at the airport, so we took a cab.

- You had to take a cab?

- Its okay.

Rahul, you idiot, I sent you

to the airport to receive them.

You come back and tell me

the flight was late?

He's been working day and night.

He doesn't know India.

But he's number one

most stupid duffer.

I'm sorry to say,

but I don't like this!

Bhai-sahab, this is Mr. Tej Puri,

married to my sister Vijaya.

After my older brother

Surinder bhai-sahab passed away...

Tej bhai has been

the hero of the family.

He has really looked after us.

Come and meet Hemant.

Yes. Excuse me.

Excuse me.

You know how difficult it was

to get tickets at this time of the year?

Difficult or not, we would have brought

you here first-class if we had to.

We couldn't have had the shadi

without you, my darling sister.

Nothing would have stopped us.

Ria!

Is that you? Come here.

Come here, come here.

God bless. Very good.

- Paaji, would you like a cigar?

- I quit.

Tej bhai-sahab, I wanted

to talk to you about Ria's plans.

Ria, come here a minute, please.

- Ria wants to study in America.

- Is that so?

We're hoping you could give us

some advice.

What do you want to do?

I'm applying

for creative writing programs.

- She wants to be a writer.

- Very good.

Have you thought of the budget?

Where will the money will come from?

My teacher's salary?

Why can't she be like Aditi and do

the right thing at the right time?

Absolutely! Just one book.

Who knows? It might happen.

You must go to the States.

You know saada Umang

is also there.

- You must give us his phone number.
