a list of the Top 5 schools.

Don't these people

have better stuff to do?

They are always coming

out with new lists.

Top 5 Restaurants,

Top 5 Holiday Resorts.

Raj,

let's concentrate on the school.

Okay.

Raj, this is Prakriti School!

No mugging up here.

You know, they teach everything

through music and dance.

Look.

62, 63, 64, 65...

What has the world come to?

Hello...

Back in the day, teachers

would give us a whacking.

That's what you'd expect

if you study in a government school.

I don't understand

these techniques, Mitho.

Imagine,

learning math through music.

You neither remember

the song nor numbers.

Do you know better

than 'ONLOOK' Magazine?

This school is in the second position

amongst the top 5 schools in the city.

Second position.

Suraj Valley High School.

Is this a school or a five-star hotel?

Why don't we take admission,

as well?

Well, even schools these days are

nothing short of a five-star hotel.

I see.

AC classrooms. Continental canteens.

And their swimming pools are-

Temperature controlled.

Increase or decrease,

as and when you want.

Can't the parents take a dip, too?

Great!

Our child's future

is still dicey and

you want to take a dip, instead.

Well, parents will have more fun.

Can you spell - 'swimming pool'?

If I do,

will they let me take a dip?

Fine.

Tell me, what is it?

- Swimming?

- Yeah.

- SWIMMING.

- Yes, what is it?

- First, comes 'S'

- Yes, what next.

You can spell the rest yourself.

- Look...

- It's not that hard.

This is Crossroad School.

It's in the fourth position.

They have a tie up with Eton.

Where's Eton? Somewhere near Noida?

Never think beyond Delhi.

It's like a grave sin.

- Eton is in England.

- England?

How can our little

girl go to England?

- Raj.

- She isn't going to England!

Mita, I beg you.

Do what you like

but, I am not parting ways

with my child.

Who's sending her, anywhere?

- Sounds more like exile.

- Raj.

What do you want her to be,

Queen Victoria?

Raj, listen to me.

Listen to what?!

How did England come in all this?

Raj, that's the number one school -

Delhi Grammar School.

Doesn't look like number one, to me.

The biggest industrial tycoons and

politicians of this country

graduated out of this school, Raj.

Are they going to put

up Pia's photo here, as well?

Sure, why not?

But, there's one problem.

They give admission forms

to those who live close by.

Within three kilometers.

Then, why come here?

Our home in Chandni Chowk is

nowhere within these three kilometers.

- But,

we can be within three kilometers.

What?

All you've got to do,

is get a house in Vasant Vihar.

This school might

be a hundred years old

but our home wasn't
