De Dana Dan Page #6

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.

married nor did Lord Shiva lie.

But, why are you telling me this story?

Because, in our story I'm Lord Ganesh

and, you're Lord Shiva.

And, this can't continue all our lives.

My marriage has been fixed.

Mannu, you know what my condition is.

I've reached this far

with debts worth millions.

If I don't repay the debts...

...then, my mother and sister

will be thrown on the streets.

And, I'm working hard...

...and, not wasting away my time.

Try to understand

my condition as well.

My marriage is on the 20th.

Father has fixed everything.

But still, if you call me before

the last nuptial round...

...I'll come back to you.

I can't promise you

anything more, Ram.

Come out, come out.

What happened?

I heard that your son is

marrying someone else.

Good that you heard about it.

I was worried thinking

about how to tell you this.

What do you think I am?

You take dowry from me...

...and get your son married

to someone else.

You gave me that money...

...because your daughter is pregnant.

And, you want us to bear that burden.

If you say anything

against my daughter...

...I'll rip your tongue out.

Look at that.

Your daughter can do

all the wrong things...

...but, we can't even speak about it.

My son will get married

wherever I ask him to.

Then listen to me, I don't want

your foolish son. - Fine.

My daughter will find someone better.

- Okay.

Just return me my money, that's all.

- Are you mad?

Am I carrying your money

in my pocket?

I'll return you your money,

only when I get it from them.

Until I don't get my money...

...I'll see how your son gets married.

Yes, do as you please.

And listen...

- What?

I'll get my daughter married

one minute before...

...your son gets married.

Fine, note it down, note it down.

My son will get married on the

You get your daughter married at 12:29.

Write it down, don't forget.

There's no need to write it down.

- I'll show you.

The daughter's intelligent

and her father's an idiot.

Madam, it's the eve of Diwali,

at least get me a new suit.

Look at this.

I've kept my pants up with a string.

Please.

I don't have a problem...

...whether my driver drives

with the strings or without it.

On this Diwali eve,

will you do me a favour? - What?

Fire me from this job.

- Go away...

But first, repay the loan...

...that your father took from

me for your studies.

I have the papers

with his signatures.

If you try to run, I'll make you

not in the Singapore jail.

And, do you know what happens

in Singapore jail?

Do you know?

Do you know?

They flog you.

Do you want to go?

- No.

You say all the problems will be over.

I ask, when?

When there'll be wrinkles on my face.
