That's nothing.

l was an unborn comedian

The moment l was born...

- The comic bandwagon took off...?!

People were rolling with laughter!

''Look what's born !''

Get rid of him

Please! Please leave!

This is a very personal meeting

l know, your son with

Pratap's daughter

Like a crow flying away

with a precious pearl

He's calling Richa a crow, Sumi!

- Actually, he's calling Aditya a crow

Correct! This girl's so educated

and your son's a drop-out from school!

l'm going to thrash him, Sumi!

- Please... take him away from here

Pratap, l suggest you come with me!

He's not turning up

Will you keep quiet? My Adi is

a stickler for punctuality! Okay?

Oh yes, a great stickler!

He's always just five hours late!

The drop-out monkey!

My Adi's done his MBA.

With a first class!

That's nothing! My father was a

TC (ticket collector) on the Rajdhani!

l'm not talking about trains!

l'm talking about his degree!

He has two degrees!

And my uncle was running up

a fever of 105 degrees!

C'mon... come!

What's this guy...? Let's go

before he returns

Natu will come back,

but where's Aditya...?

We were supposed to meet at 8

and it's already 9 !

l'll phone him

Go on, Adi.

Get married to Richa

She's very nice.

She can even brew tea!

You will be happy with her.

- But l love you, Pooja

So why didn't you tell your father?

- My father...

You know what could happen

if l told my father

Yes, l do. Which is why

l'm asking you to go away

Even the phone's ringing now!

Adi...? Papa here

Yes, yes...

What...? Oh, l see, l see...

He's helping some poor man out

and got held up

Actually, we're here at the club...

Thakur...

- You can take your own time...

Your phone, Thakur...

your phone's ringing

Well... a wrong number.

The instrument isn't working

They're all bloody crooks.

- Really?

Relax, Thakur. He must be

caught up with a problem

l'm sorry, Pratap

The humiliation l had to face

because of him...

Yes, he even switched off his phone.

- What...?

His phone...?

- Yes! He switched it off.

There's a limit to irresponsibility.

- l tell you !

There's a limit to carelessness!

- Let him come. l'll take him to task...

Yes. Let him come

l'll take him to task in a way...

- Will you take him to task or ask?

''Where've you been, Adi?

What happened, my son?''

l will take him to task, Sumi!

Let him at least come home!

lf l don't break his legs,

l won't call myself lshwar again !

Dad...

- Adi...?

My son ! What happened, son?

Where were you?

Why the long face...?

Tell Daddy what's up, c'mon

Laxman, will you a fetch

a book of names?

We got to change the master's name.

- But l was about to scold him, Sumi...
