and ships in Bombay.

Wadia. Wadia.

The highway man came riding...

...riding up to the old Inn-door.

The highway man came

riding up to the old Inn-door.

Ammi... I'm hungry.

Let's go. I'm hungry.

Ammi said master

Wadia was a good man.

Good people did good deeds.

Master Wadia taught

me a lot of things.

About books. And about life too.

Rizvan. Rizvan, don't come here.

There's too much water.

Go home! Go home!

Mr. Wadia. What are you doing?

Come out!

Your pupil is amazing!

What's going on? Why

are you guys screaming?

Rizvan, what are you doing?

I asked you to go home.

Too good.

You are pumping water out.

That's amazing. Genius. Genius.

He is my pupil. My pupil.

You think he can repair all this?

You know, Mr. Wadia?

My Rizu did nothing short of

a miracle near his house.

The water had filled till here.

- Mother!

One minute!

The water was till here.

Rizu fixed some motor type of thing.

One minute!

Put the motor in the water,

and the water was gone!

I saw it with my own eyes.

Really?

- Yes.

Zakir.

You won a cup, didn't you?

I'm really happy about that.

And Rizu?

Even he is happy for you.

You should be happy too.

He is your brother, isn't he?

Good boy. Wipe your tears.

Come on.

You are my good son, aren't you?

You are my good son, aren't you?

You are my good son, aren't you?

You are my good son, aren't you?

Zakir was fortunate.

He could cry.

Zakir, Rizu says it's

going to be very cold there.

You have taken everything,

right? Don't forget anything.

I will miss you, my son.

Only if you find time from

bhai (brother) will you miss me!

As soon as he completed 18 years,

Zakir left for America.

He got a scholarship

at Michigan University.

I felt very bad when he left.

But I never told him.

And in just a few days,

I got accustomed to his absence.

Ammi. Hasina teaches

at the university.

She can't leave mid-term and come.

It's her first Eid (festival)

In the family after the wedding.

We haven't even seen her yet.

Come here, please.

Ammi.

Don't worry.

Your immigration will

be done in a few days.

Then you will live with us.

I won't go anywhere without Rizvan.

I know that.

I'm sponsoring bhai as well.

Okay, Ammi. I have to hang

up now. I'll call later.

Yeah?

Oh, Lord.

- Oh, lord.

Ammi, you should sleep now.

Sleeping calms the mind and

provides rest to the body.

Shut up!

Nothing is wrong with me.

Just missing Zakir, that's all.

His laughter.

His anger.

The sound of his gargling.

At 7 am. At 2pm. 9pm.

Enough peace?

Please, Rizu. Two minutes?

Only two minutes.

Only two minutes?

1001, 1002.

But Mandira, the effect

of those two minutes...

...lasted only for six months,
