Param, I gave you this

number only for emergencies.

This is an emergency.

Remember that boy, Dhoni?

I spoke to you about

sponsoring his cricket kit.

Yes, you keep calling

up regularly for him

and I keep saying no.

What's his name? Dhoni.

Yes, that's him.

You know,

he scored 213 runs in 150 balls.

And in a single day.

His game is getting

better day by day.

I just wanted to

give you this good news.

Okay, are you done?

Can I hang up now?

- Yes.

I'll call you again tomorrow

for the sponsorship.

And I'm coming

to Jalandhar at the month's end.

Goodbye.

- Don't come!

Hello, Param.

Lord.

How much?

'And now for sports news.'

'India was eliminated from

the 1999 World Cup competition.'

'While playing against

New Zealand in Trent Bridge'

'India won the toss'

'and elected to bat first.'

'Ajay Jadeja made

the highest score'

'of 76 runs on behalf of India.'

'India made 251 runs in 50 overs.'

'The New Zealand team..'

Come on, Mahi, it's quite late.

Chotu, I don't think this one's

going to last for too long.

Why do you hit so hard?

Use it gently.

I hit gently.

It's you who thinks I hit hard.

Girish, close the shop.

May I ride it?

- Here.

Chotu,

the MRF bat which Sachin uses..

How much does that cost?

MRF only makes tires.

Sachin has been paid to

put the MRF sticker on his bat.

People pay good players

to put their stickers on their bats.

That's great.

And Dad, everyone says

that Mahi plays really well.

And if he keeps playing like this

someday he will make it really big.

When do his exams begin?

- Day after tomorrow.

And you know, his Under-19

trials are coming up too.

Just a second.

How are your studies coming along?

- Just fine.

My exams start day after tomorrow.

Will you pass?

That's what I want

to talk to you about.

The Office Leagues

begin day after tomorrow.

Trials begin at 11 a.m. everyday.

But will you appear

for your exams?

The exam starts at 8 a.m.

If I finish my paper by 10:30

and catch the 10:45 passenger train

I'll make it to the ground on time.

Yes.

Will you finish your 3 hour

paper in 2.5 hours?

It's difficult,

but I'll get through.

That must be Chittu with the notes.

I'll be right back.

What?

Listen, listen! - Water.

- Don't worry so much.

Drink some water.

- I'll drink the water

but how will he finish his 3 hour

paper in 2.5 hours?

Like I said,

let him do what he's doing.

Leave him be.

You worry too much.

"The roads run faster

than your feet can."

"What you want from life

is way beyond the ordinary."

"The roads run faster

than your feet can."

"What you want from life

is way beyond the ordinary."

"Why think too much?

Where do you want to go?"
