When Pooja gets pregnant, both Ishwar and Sumitra decide to make Aditya realize his responsibilities, as he will have to take care of his wife and child. Both take drastic measures and even chuck Aditya out the house along with Pooja. The farce becomes so bad that Aditya begins to hate his father and they do not speak to each other for a long time.

the producers sign you?

Well.. because l'm good-looking...

l'm rich and...

- You're lucky!

Yes, l'm lucky.

- Wait and see, Sumi

This boy will feature in our

ad for the toys

As you know, as a postman earlier,

l used to give people their letters

And this boy will

get tons of fan-mail!

After all l'm a star, Mom!

Look at the lines on my palm!

They reach out to the very end!

- Don't trust the lines so much, Aditya

They seem to imply one thing,

and give you quite another

Pretty serious, isn't she?

Mother lndia!

Excuse me...

What a pretty sari.

- Thanks

But it's ordinary compared to yours!

That trademark flower-band in

your hair looks very pretty

lt's lshwar's gift, literally.

He personally brings one for me everyday

ls that all? A measly flowerband?

l give my Ashalata a bouquet everyday!

Really? Does your wife go around

with a bouquet in her hair everyday?

The two of them are at it again.

Shall we...?

Wasn't me, it was Natu who took off

He says, ''That's nothing''

at everything anyone says...

So Mr Naidu...?

What are you gentlemen discussing?

My son Venkat! He wants to ignore

my hotel business and turn a Pop singer

l spent half a million rupees!

''You're pregnant,

l'm a beggar at heart...''

To record that cursed song,

he had six sessions!

That's happening in every family.

- But that's very good, Mr Naidu

You ought to be happy with your son,

his cassettes are selling quickly

Two cassettes! Only 2 cassettes!

l bought a cassette

which got spoilt

So l was the one who bought

the second cassette, too!

He's forgotten all about

his education and learning!

That's really sad, really sad.

But we're very lucky in this respect

Our son Adi wants to become

a film actor

But he's completing his education.

He stands first in the college every year

That's nothing! Ashalata's niece

came first in college every day!

Hear that...? Every day!

- Every day!

For the 8 'o clock classes,

she got to the college at 6 !

That's very nice, Natu-bhai!

You know something...?

My son stands first in studies and also

first in drama-competitions every year

He's really a very good actor!

- That's nothing

Ashalata's nephew is

the greatest actor

He played a mailbox in

one of his school plays

He gave such a superb performance...

people thrust their letters

in his mouth even today!

Your son is nothing!

- What was that...?

My daughter is like Einstein in brains

and Aishwarya in beauty! One of a kind!

Your son's a big zero. He's dumb!

- He's had too much to drink, lady...

take care of him, else...

- l'll take care of him

What's wrong with him, Sumi?

He gets started at just any place!

He took off at Agarwal's
