De Dana Dan

Synopsis: Singapore-based Nitin Bankar's education was paid for by his employer, Kuljeet Kaur, and he, after the passing of his father, works as an unpaid maid-chauffeur for her until such time he pays off whatever she had spent. He is in love with gorgeous Anjali Kakkad but her father refuses to give his consent for this alliance. Desperate to get out of this situation, Nitin attempts suicide, albeit in vain, and then cooks up a scheme to abduct Kuljeet's pet, Mulchand, demand a hefty ransom, and then marry Anjali. He seeks assistance from his equally deadbeat-courier deliveryman, Ram Mishra, who wants to wed tall and pretty Manpreet Oberoi, and both book a room in Pan Pacific Hotel. However, Murphy's Law and a host of assorted characters get involved - resulting in hilarious and uncontrollable chaos.

That's my father.

Mr. Bankar.'

He looks like a pilot,

but is a servant cum driver in reality.'

He would work with Kuljeet Kaur... '

She is a billionaire.'

My father passed away

two years ago.'

But I was fortunate to

inherit my father's job.

A ready made job.'

Not because of madam's favour... '

loan towards my education from her.'

Ever since then I've been

slogging for her.

To repay the loan.'

I begin my day by making tea.

Not for myself, but for madam.'

Good morning, madam.

I do all the household chores.'

selling off his mother and sister's

jewellery to work in Chinese films.'

Leave her.

I didn't raise her for you to carry her around.

If I see you two again,

I'll break your bones.

Come on.

Uncle, don't forget your promise.

You and my father would go

around selling fish like this.

You promised my father

that we'll never separate.

So? - So? Just because you won

a lottery, you forgot everything.

Yes, I forgot.

If I keep my promise

and let her marry you...

around begging just like him.

Don't forget,

Uncle every dog has his day.

And you, come with me.

Come on. Let me know.

- Anjali.

Daddy.

If you step out of the house,

I'll break your legs.

What happened?

- Quiet. - Mummy.

If she steps out of the house,

then I'll break your leg too.

A mother should look

after her child.

I'll get her marriage fixed today itself.

my China account.

Five million.

Yes.

And... I need to invest 4 million

Okay.

I've brought the amount

you had asked for, - Good.

But I'll charge you 12% interest.

Yes. - And, here are the papers.

I want it for a month.

As soon as my funds arrive from China
