Man: Harish, listen...

-Jiga, take out the cigarettes. Jigar: - Yes
One last smoke together.

[Car engine hum, screeching to halt]
[Car door opening]
Man: Jigar!
[Laughs]
I have had a little to drink...
Raheel.
What I say...
We should do this every day. This is so much fun.
Look at how drunk Percy is!
Hey, Raheel.
Make me another peg
-Hm. -Hey!
Um...
Bro, it's all finished.
The bottle is finished and so is the game. Everything is over now.
Yeah. It's over.
Everything is over.
Since college is done with,
it's all finished
-Hmm. -[Chuckles]
-Dude, this Percy is psycho. -Hm.
-His tape is always stuck at the college. -So what?
He is not the only one done with college.
Bro...
Did you see his CAT score?
The CAT gobbled up the rat!
[Laughing]
Gobbled up!
[Laughing]
Jigar, that is how KAT is.
Look.
Did Ranbir get his hands on Kat? No.
No.
No one in Bollywood did,
when Salman himself couldn't bell KAT.
How was Mr. Balloon going to?
[Laughs]
[All laughing loudly]
Mehul, stop cracking such pathetic jokes.
-Hey, Percy. -He's had it.
It isn't your fault, dear.
Didn't I warn you?
Not to fall for this CAT business?
3 Lac appear for CAT. How many?
Three hundred thousand.
And you don't stand a chance against such odds, yeah?
[Chuckling]
There is no scope for us in India.
Life is out there, boss.
Yes, boss.
You are the man.
What had you said you would go to America?
Then why are you languishing here
Damn NRI.
Non Required Indian. [Laughing]
Non Required Indian!!
Mr. Balloon has burst! [Laughing]
Hey, this is going to turn into a fight!
You can't go to America on your College ID.
Hmm.
You need a visa. Visa.
And I have begun my preparations.
Harish.
Did you submit your file?
Yes, I did.
And my interview is tomorrow.
Boss, this guy is going places!
Don't forget us once you start living the good life over there
All of that sounds good but...
what are you going to do over there?
Swell the crowd
[Laughs]
Shut up!
[Laughs]
Motel...
-I will open a motel. -What?
Motel King Harish!
Jigar.
Please check his wallet
[Laughing]
Yeah, hold on
Wow, my dear.
[Laughing]
-Uh.... Give me your wallet. -Give him the wallet.
Here it is.
Uh, uh.
Check his license.
Yeah.
Uh. Read out your name printed here.
-What's wrong with the name? -Wait, I will read out.

[Mobile ringing]
Hey, turn the volume down. [Mobile ringing]
Yes tell me, brother.
You haven't called in a long time.
Wow! How wonderful!
You recognized me by my voice alone?
Hey, Mr. Motel king.
You may have forgotten me, but I haven't.
After all, you are the only one I have in the US.
[Laughing]
But soon I will have two.
Um-hm.
I just dropped Harish at the station.
His visa interview is tomorrow
and all the tomorrows thereafter, will be in America!
Oh, wow! That's great. But I'm returning to India.
You've been saying that for years.
You'll believe me when I actually come and meet you
Come then. We will meet up.
Sure. See you then
-Alright -Bye. Bye-bye.
Huh, whatever.
Bachu!
Hey, Ishwar, what's this.
Are you going to ride a mare for your wedding?
Consider it like that.
But this time not on a bridegrooms horse, it is a ship.
But what about the money and documents?
No documents are required although, just it will cost us more money.
But I've made my arrangements.
Now you too arrange for the money quickly
-Ishwar. -Yeah?
I haven't been able to arrange for any money yet.
That just won't do, we wont get such an opportunity again.
If you have the money America isn't far.
[Laughs] Come on. Come.
-Jyotsna. -Umm?
Once I get these two more orders,
I will have the money to go to the US.
-Oh, wow. -Uh...
[Phone ringing]
Hello?
'Bachu, this is Ishwar here.'
'Can you hear me?'
Yes, Ishwar. Where have you been?
I've been trying to get in touch
Ishwar: 'It was so sudden that, I couldn't inform you.'
Yeah, but where are you?
'Hm… I am in America!'
What?
You went without telling me? Without taking me along?
As soon as we reached here, Sharda passed away
'Bachu, I miss our country I miss you a lot.'
'Hello, do you hear me?'
'Hello...'
Huh.
He was a deceiver and so selfish.
Damn! [Glass shattering]
What happened?
[Sound of waves lapping]
[Traffic noise]
Female voice: 'Token number 13740.'
Man: Please leave now, your visa is rejected. Go now.
We're not going for a holiday there.
My husband needs medical treatment.
-My son lives there -I don't know anything. Please leave.
-At least let us go once... -You may try again. Go now.
This is what happens once a son goes to the US.
He wouldn't even bother about his ailing parents.
Huh.
She should have been given a visa,
What do you think? -Uh...
You are right
-I plan to take my entire family along with me. -Hmm.
Female voice: 'Token number 31, Harish B. Patel?'
Yes?
-'Token number 31, Harish B. Patel?' -Yes.
Sir...
For Visa?
Yeah.
Ah...
Can I see your file please, young man? - Yes, sir.
Um...
Young man, can you...

Harish Bachubhai.
Um...
[Clearing throat]
Harish Bachubhai..
What?
Harish Bachubhai Patel.
Oh.
Mr. Patel, here in your application it says your...
middle name is only Bachu and not Bachubhai.
Uh, sir... Sir in Indian culture, we not call that to pappa.

It is Bachubhai! Respect!
-Oh! That's lovely! -Yes sir.
Um... um...

Oh, sorry! Let me start again.
Um.. Mr. Patel in U.S.A,
-Um... Patel are very famous. -Yes. Yes.
Very famous for

[Chuckles]
What are you intentions in going to U.S.A?
No tension, sir. Happy.
Oh. Now! What is your purpose?
No, um... uh, what is your reason for going to U.S.A?
Oh, reason? Sir, sir...
I.. uh, want to study there.
Also help my Patel brothers in motel business.
Slowly slowly, I also one day will open my own Motel.
Well...
as they say, Honesty is the best policy.
Uh, forget it. Um... Now tell me something on...
-Has anyone from your family... -Yes sir.

Greetings.
[Women crying]
What will we do now? [Crying]
[Crying continues]
What did he do?
What about Harish's motel?
Man: -'No!' -Uh?
'No Harish, don't do this.'
Hey, somebody stop him!
Someone stop him.
[Sound of slap]
What nonsense is this?
Are you weak? good-for-nothing?
Please calm down.
he is a young man. He may do something rash,
-Calm down. Let me handle this. -How are you going to handle this?
A moment ago you were screaming "Stop! Stop him." You go now.
-But listen to what I'm saying... -Nothing doing, you go out.
Jyotsana will serve you some tea, go.
Do whatever you want. Deal with it on your own.
No one has died yet. Your father is still alive
Go out, and get others also going.
Idiot
Come on, it's nothing. All of you please leave.
Yeah...
Bye everyone
Don't worry, Harish.
We will work out something.
Hello... Mukeshbhai?
Bachu here, Bachu Patel
Hello, Ishwar here
How are you?
Hey, Ishwarbhai?
How are you?
I was good, but now I feel even better.
I'm back in India.
Oh, when did you come?
'I came this morning.'
Where are you staying? Come over.
I checked in at a hotel a while ago.
Why the hotel? This is your home too.
Sister-in-law.
You do know, don't you?
I do consider it home but...
Bachu doesn't think of me as family.
Once I meet him
and everything is sorted out, I will move in.
It sounds good. Do come soon.
We will wait for you.
Okay, we have much to talk, we will come soon
-Bye. -Bye, yeah.
[Laughs]
We will go soon, dear.
-Dad. -Hm?
I wish Mom was here.
Yes, dear.
So do I.
Anyways...
time for me to leave. Hmm?
We look for a beautiful house for you in the Walled city, okay?
And be sure to come with me the next time I go
That's the place to be in, you know.
I know what you talking about, dad.
It's not Walled City it's Pol.
Oh!
So you already started exploring the place.
[Laughs] Good!
Yeah I am very excited.
Look, Bachubhai
A lot of times your visa gets rejected on flimsy grounds
Uh... You can be refused a visa even if all your documents are in order.
So, Harish need not be disheartened.
I think... you should approach a good visa agent
Yes, you're right...
Uh... But if you could help...
Uh...
If there is some other way...
Bachubhai, there are many ways.
But it is best you stay away from those paths.
But, Mukeshbhai...
These...
These are copies of Harish's documents
May be your contacts in Mumbai could help.
Sure, I will try my best
But...
I can't guarantee anything;
I've given up this kind of work long time back.
No problem
No matter what, I want to send him to America
What's your name?
Harish.
What's your name?
Harish Bachubhai..
What's your name?
Harish Bachubhai Patel.
No! No! No...
Wake up, you goof
Hello? Yeah.
Alpeshbhai.
Please give me the address.
America.
In America you...
Man, I don't take installments.
You have the entire amount.
I don't send you to America in installments, do I?
Hey, Gus, what are you doing? Do it again.
Yeah. Hello.
My work is always up to date.
You can come and see all the games people play just to get to America
People are so anxious to get there.
Yeah. Ok, okay.
Yes. tell me, who amongst you want to go to America?
Yeah, I want to send my son Harish.
Oh, Harish. Hm.
Tell me, what are you good at?
Dancing, singing, acting?
-Tell him. -I can do all that and more.
Alright my super hero.
Allright.
Come tomorrow, show me your talent then. Ok?
Yeah, Rajubhai? Hello?
Dad, let's go.
It has been my dream since childhood
to live and study there.
-Dad, shall we go? -Wait. Let's watch the entire act
[Stuttering] I will... you...
you...
Cancel.
-Oh, yeah, this is the intimation... -Get lost.
-Hello, Sir. -Hi
-How are you? -I am fine
So you want to go to the U.S.
Hmm.
It's not that easy to go to America.
You will have to make some compromises
Oh, fool!
Take it away.
-How are you, sir? -Come. Come, Mr. Jignesh.
-Hello. -Hello, Bhavna?
I have got a good news for you.
The reports are positive
Jignesh, you will soon be a father.
[Smiles]
-Congratulations. -Thank you.
Where is Bachu stuck, that he couldn't come?
He is not stuck anywhere.
He believes if he comes here with us,
then it won't work out.
That's what happened with brother too.
How far have you progressed with your America thing?
What can I say, Baba?
I am reduced to singing and dancing these days.
Hmm.
-The lines? -Hmm.
-Do you see? -Get that hair out of the way.
[Birds chirping]
You will prosper there.
Any ideas for hospitality business?
Want to open Motel there. I want to become a motel king.
[Laughs] Start preparing then.
Prepare what?
Plan...
A Business plan.
Business plan.
Hm.
New York. Detroit. Chicago. L.A.
Tell me, which city you want a girl from?
New York.
Here's the New York's Album. Choose from.
Uh, wow.
This one looks fine.
Son, Harish, take a look. Do you like this girl?
Mummy, is that even a girl?
Then tell me son, what type of girl you want?
-I have enough stock. -Is it?
Hold this.
I want a girl like her.
Do you know any?
-Hey, please listen... -Let it be. You son is...
Where do you find such jokers from?
I've a brilliant idea.
Listen carefully.
People from U.S. means...
Those who have gone from here still eat Khakhra and Thepla.
-Don't they? -Yeah.
Ok. Bhabhi, you make the bestKhakhras, so you will make them.
And Mom, you make the best Theplas. So you will make them.
We will make them here and export to the US.
Like MC Donalds, and Subway, we will also have our own chain.
For variety we will also haveThepla Burger and Salad Khakhras.
Later mornings, afternoons, nights, waking up, sleeping, sitting...
people will get addicted to them.
From Hollywood to White-house...
they will only demand for, Patel's Khakhras and Theplas.
After all, what can beat the taste of Moms cooking?
Wow.
And yours too.
Any question?
Yes.
One question
Son.
How much more of my money are you going to blow up?
Speak the truth, okay?
Think about making money without investing a single rupee.
Instead of wasting what I have earned
Rubbish ideas. Go change your clothes
Jyotsana, we will be late today.
We have to attend a community meeting in the evening
Friends,
now I will invite such a person
trying to introduce whom is like holding up a torch against the sun.
Someone who has supported numerous causes for us Gujaratis.
Please welcome, The Motel King,
our very own, Ishwar Patel.
[Clapping]
Good evening.
Good evening my friends and my brothers.
I am really glad to be back to my motherland.
One can live anywhere in the world, but...
in the end one has to come back home.
And now I want to bring
everything back here to my homeland.
[Claps]
Besides, Gujarat has now stamped its presence globally.
Even MNC's abroad are scrambling to invest here.
When I go back there
I will convince more of our brave Gujaratis.
That it is time to return to our roots, Payback to our motherland.
[Claps]
Selfish, he is.
Thank you.
And hail Gujarat!
-Dad, check this out. -Let's go.
Thank you. Thank you.
[Loud applause]
Now you see...
Our Ishwar
started out from Mehsana and look how far he has gone.
Makes me believe good things are in store for Gujarat.
Yeah, just keep dreaming.
Prayduman, this is how people at the top talk...
In tongues designed to sway simple people like you.
Bachu, You can't get over the fact that he went abroad
and you couldn't.
It is all about destiny. Yeah?
And it's your ill-fate, that you couldn't make it.
Huh.
-Hey Ishwar! -Did you see?
She is so beautiful.
Idiot.
Because of you people I have to listen to so many things.
How long are you going to stand gawking like the Statue of Liberty?
Let's go
Dad wait, Ishwar uncle is heading this way.
Shut up and come along...
I've had enough of this 'Ishwar Uncle' business
Ishwar you have become a big shot! Wow.
Listen...
What?
Ah-uh... Would you like some tea?
Didn't I just had some?
Uh...hmm..
Is she... their daughter?
That is what I said.
Uh, yeah... you did say.
I wanted to ask you...
Um-uh...ah...
She is a grown up now, must be of our Harish's age?
No, she is still tiny, like your brain.
Go see who is at the door.
Oh, Ishwarbhai, you!
-Hello Bhabhi... How are you? Fine? -Perfectly fine.
She is my... - You baby.
How old are you child?
Now... ah... uh.. Bhabhi.
She is not a baby anymore, she is a young lady now. [Laughs]
But, she is still the same for me.
[Laughing]
Can we come in?
Yes, yes, please come. Please come.
-Come on, dear. -Hey, do you listen...
Wow, Bhabhi, wow. It was great.
After so many years really
I have had home-cooked food in its truest sense...
I am truly happy to see all of you together.
I missed all of this in the U.S...
Bachu,
what you've got here, you won't find there.
Ishwar Uncle... How are you?
Oh, Harish.
You've grown up so much!
Isn't he a dashing young man now?
Dad,
sit over there.
Harish, I've heard you are going to the U.S.
Yes Uncle, I want to open a Motel there.
Oh!
Bachu...
are you still chasing after the idea of a Motel?
Oh, come on. [Laughs]
Harish, come to America to holiday
Yes Uncle! As soon as you call me.
Harish, Aayushi is like a friend.
You two develop your friendship. Uh...
Aayushi,
Harish's room is really fine.
Totally American...
-Oh, really? -Yeah.
-I'd like to see your room. -Yes, yes, come
Aayushi, that is wrong grammar.
[Everyone laughing] Dad!
-Yes yes, come. -Come on. Go ahead.

Hello!
Harish! - Sorry.
Do... Do you like my room?
Yeah it's interesting, Your are a sportsman.
Yes.
So many trophies and posters.
Nice..
Hey, why don't you sit?
Oh, thanks.
Sit.
I used to play earlier, but now I am out of practice.
Now I am practicing to go to the U.S.
Oh, so you're going to U.S. for studies? - Yes
That's great.
-Will you take me around won't you? -Yeah, Sure.
Great.
Uh... ah...
What's your plan?
Um... I don't know.
But I can say, I find India very exciting.
-Is it? -And there is so much I wanna explore.
-Would you take me... -Any help?
Yeah sure.
May be my Gujarati will also improve along the way.
-Yeah, you need to. -So where would you take me?
With me... to America...
What?
I mean, give your number, I'll call you.
Yeah.
Um... Shall I save it?

Dad, she was just heading out.
-Weren't you? -Yeah.
No Bhabhi, it is time to go now.
-Come on, what's the hurry? -Oh...
Look at her... Look at her...
That smile on her face has been missing ever since she came to India.
[Laughs]
You should've made plans to stay over.
I will come some other time.
Don't take the call. its my missed call.
Save it.
-[Laughs] Come on, dear. -Bye.
-Okay bye. -Come again, dear.
I liked her.
What do you think?
Huh?
I mean, uh...
What do you think about Ishwarbhai's idea of taking house in India?
Yeah. I got it now.
Harish, get me some water.
Hey, Harish, go get some water.
Dude... [Laughing]
Hey, you'll be the one left behind filling up water.
And, Nareshbhai spouts a great dialogue! [Laughing]
They are big shots.
They've come to Gujarat to make some investments.
Boss...
I always used to say, it is Gujarat's turn now.
If they don't hold the Olympics here within the next 5 years...
-I'll change my name -Cut the chatter.
Tell us, what is our Bhabhi like?
Come on, tell us.
Did she give you a smile? Yeah?
Yes.
Wow! Then she is hooked!
[Laughing]

You're in hurry to get married, right?
I don't understand...
So now, should I talk to you in the language of love?
Look, these people are of big promises.
Don't fall into their trap, concentrate on your work
Besides, how can you judge what their true intentions are?
Continue with your preparations and stop meeting Aayushi.
But dad, there is nothing going on between us as you think.
If there is nothing, then why argue? Just do what I say
Go meet the guy Raheel was telling you about, he'll help you.
If you don't push ahead in life, you will be left behind.
Now go get some Idli.
Jut Idli... anything else?
Yes some juice as well/
-Juice... yes. -And leave this for me.
It's been half an hour. You think he'll show up?
[Mobile ringing] Hello. Yeah.
Ya, I'm here.
Yeah, I'll be there, my game in on. Yeah.
He is here. He'll be here.
Playing that... thing
Can't he come immediately if he is already here?
Why are you in a hurry?
Are you going to meet Aayushi?
How am I to meet her?
What the world has come to.
Dad sends me to meet a guy instead of a girl.
- Hey, I'll just be back. - Okay.
[Laughing]
-Hey buddy. -Yes.
Kaivan?
No.
Then?
Kevin... It's Kevin
-Not Kevin. -Oh! Kevin.
So, you want to go to the U.S.?
No.
-So? -Actually he wants to go.
-Harish. -Oh please.
-I mean... Pleased to meet you. -Same.
Ok, so how long have you been trying to get to the states?
Ever since he was born, you know? -Uh-hmm.
He has been in training to go to the U.S. since childhood.
-Is it? -I had applied for a student visa.
Then I'm sure you got rejected, right?
I don't know why they rejected me...
Dude.
You know the dude.
I mean, seriously no one will select you.
All you need is proper guidance and company
which you don't have it seems.
Let me be frank with you, okay?
There is a saying in your Hindi...
As is the country so is the look...
If you want to go to the U.S., you must look like a U.S. aspirant
-Aspirant. -Yeah.
No, but I think he is too late... no?
Dude...
there is saying in our English too.
Better late than never.
You just need passion to go, and I don't think he's passionate about it.
What are you saying? He's packed with passion.
-You tell him. -What does passion mean?
Passion means... dedication!
Dedication? I have a lot of dedication.
I have everything needed to go to the U.S.,
Don't. Don't, don't, don't/
Don't ever lie to yourself.
Every morning you look at your face in the mirror.
And say, "Yes, I will go to the U.S."
That will make you passionate, which you are not.
Give other tips too.
There is a saying in your Gujarati too...
If someone offers you a finger, don't grab his entire arm.
-Yes right. -Anyways...
I gotta go. My game is on.
Here is my number. And you guys keep in touch, okay.
Yes.
And you, Harish.
Be passionate and confident, right?
See ya, man.
-Passion... -He had a very weird hairstyle...
Doesn't it sound so if you say 'Passion' in English.
In Gujarati, Passion and Anger and all sound the same... Passion.
You must have found his hairstyle interesting, no?
Let's get the same.
-Hmm. -Shell we?
Passion...
-Hey, Hari. -Yes?
-Sorry, man. -Why?
-I introduced you to a wrong guy. -Not at all.
-First time you've done something right. -Are you mad?
He was some "wanna be"
asking you to stand in front of a mirror and say,
"Yes I'll go to the U.S.". Don't fall for it.
What is your problem with him anyway? - Don't believe that guy's words...
You've to be insane to say, "Yes, I'll go to the U.S." every morning...
What a whacked out guy with a weird hairstyle!
Buddy, your problem is that, you can't be like him...
-You just talk big... -Bro, don't fall for it.
Forget it, man. Who'll explain you!
Hey, Harish. Listen to me... Hey, Harish!
Radio Jocky: 'Friends, the song you just listened, was from the movie Sholay.'
'Starring the great Amitabh Bachchan.'
'Today, I'm going to talk about Amitabh Bachchan.'
'Friends, this great actor is so great
because he is very passionate about his work.
'Despite the fact that his 7 to 8 films flopped,
today at what heights he is
it is just because of his passion.'
'A hunger for acting in him
and his unshakable confidence in his work,
has made him the emperor of Bollywood.'

-I like you passion. -Thank you, sir.
And I'll do my best for you. - Yes, sir.
'Look, these people are of big promises.'
'Besides, how can you judge what their true intentions are?'
'Continue with your preparations and stop meeting Aayushi.'
Just like in the movies,
the father playing the spoilsport.
But you don't worry.
Now Chainani sir will get me to the U.S.
And then, Harish and Aayushi...
will continue in the U.S.
'Look at yourself in the mirror every morning.'
'And say, "Yes, I will go to the U.S."
Yes, I will go to the U.S.
Do with passion, Hariya. Passion.
Yes, I will go to the U.S.
Yes, I will go... to the U.S.
[Clapping]
Wow! Wow!
My son... that's great.
[Whoosh]
This plot is good. Huge. But it must cost a lot to maintain
Dad, hurry. He's stickler to time.
-Uh? Yeah. -Let's go
[Ball falling in hole]
Oh ah... aah.
-Sir, do you recognize me? -No, uh...
-Sir, Patel Harish. Keven... -Kevinbhai has referred him to us
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Sir, meet my father. Patel Bachubhai Hargovandas
-Oh, hello. -Dad.
Just a minute.
How are you?
Sorry, Chainanibhai. I am bothering you here.
But my son is adamant about going to the U.S.
That is because, He is obstinate, like you are.
[Laughs] Would you like to play a round of Golf?
No, sir. I don't know if it's game of cricket or marbles, I don't understand.
[Laughing] Come let's talk in the club house.
-Club house? -Yeah. It's a beautiful club house. Come.
What is a club house?
[Slurping]
Papa.
[Slurping] Papa...
This tea tastes funny...
Since how long have you been planning to send him to the U.S.?
-From the beginning, sir. -Yeah, but since when?
Take it, since eight-nine years.
Yeah, then you should have planned it 10 years earlier.
What kind of paper you’d made! Totally incomplete.
With this file, he won't get admission anywhere, forget U.S. college.
Sir, why don't you suggest something?
I mean, is there a back door?
I mean, anything illegal?
Bachubhai, my name is Chainani.
Chainani doesn't do anything illegal. Do you understand?
I don't do it.
I send people out of India, not pigeons.
What do you want? How can you talk like that?
There are many agents in Ahmadabad. Go to them. Not to me.
-Don't come to me ever again. -Please, sir. Please.
Dad, made a mistake. Please sit. sir. You had promised me,
Sorry, sorry, sorry. Forgive us, sir.
I thought all agents are the same.
Now I promise.
-I'll do what you say, for sure. -Yeah.
Look, Bachubhai, you seem to be a decent man and your son too.
That's why I'm still here. Otherwise I'd have gone away.
Uh... What do you do by the way?
Sir...
I have struggled a lot.
I have only one goal in my life...
America.
My friend went away to America. My best friend.
I too had dream to go to America.
But I couldn't go.
So I passed on my dream to go to America.
Hm.
That is what I've been working towards, all my life
You've sacrificed a lot...
I a lot.
Wow, wow, Bachubhai.
I am emotionally drained after listening to the story of your life
Really drained out. You've struggled so much.
-One has to do it, sir. -And you still are doing it.
But you don't worry
He is no more your son, Harish is my son now.
[Laughs] Now I will look after him. -Yeah. Sir...
as you have adopted him there is nothing to worry.
Sam. I will personally train him for US Visa. Okay?
Schedule his training. -It's very difficult, sir.
-Hm? -You've no time at all.
This time you have nine foreign visits scheduled.
So what? Cancel few of them.
His foreign visit is important too. [Laughs]
Okay, I'll leave now.
Alright, I have to go. Where is your car?
Sir, our car is there.
It's nearby, but driver must have gone away somewhere...
-You leave now. Ok? -Yeah.
-Bye sir. Thank you. -Bye dear.
-Thank you, sir. -Thank you.
[Car door closing, driving away]
-Bye-bye, sir. -See you, sir.
You're a fool.
This guy won't accept a job from a scooter owner.
Now, go bring the scooter.
Sir, daddy.
Come on, move.

-You want to play? -Hm.
Yes? Do you want to bat or bowl?
Will you be batting?
-Yes. -Then I will bowl you out.
You will throw "Googly" at me? Naughty girl.
Done.
Go play Hari. -Out?
Your turn.
I'm out of practice, man.
-Here, Mehul... -No, bro.
Come on, I wanna see you playing.
Go play. Play.
What's the score?
Chances of win is dim.
-I think I should help. -Yeah.
Give it to me.
I will help them win.
Come on, Harish!
All the best.
Yeah.
-Hari you were all over the park today. -Smash.
Aayushi has become your fan. [Laughing]
I know. I mean, he plays amazing!
Thanks.
Friend: But Aayushi,
We keep telling him
that his obsession with going to the U.S. Isn't right...
Even Aayushi thinks the same...
Try to understand.
Friend 2: And Mr. Amazing here is fielding for a Visa these days.
Yeah.
But they are right. Why are you so crazy about going to the U.S.?
-This ground here... -Hey!
This ground here has ten matches going on.
Everyone wants to be a the Sachin Tendulkar.
But where is the space to be anything?
And so, in frustration
they take their lunch boxes and leave for work every day...
If I try anything here,
I will be one more, in a crowd of thousands
And if I try in US, I can be one in a thousand.
I don't get this, Harish.
On one hand you act so sensible
and then, suddenly, you start acting immature
Aayushi, at least you should understand me.
Going to the U.S. is not only my dream, it's is my dad's dream too.
You are aware of it.
Harish.
Have you ever thought what your dream is?
Have you ever thought what you want to do?
Have you thought it?
You should go and deliver lecture in a college
Come.
Let's go, Aayushi.
What happened? You felt bad?
Forget all that.
But you being from there, you speak this way about them?
Wherever I am from, but that doesn't change where I come from.
It only feels good for few days here.
You're only a tourist here, madam.
[Scooter engine revving]
Sit.
Man: Whose vehicle is this?
Hey, bro, is this yours vehicle?
No
Damn it.
-Look at the camera. -Hm.
Smile please.
Hmm.
Harish.
Why don't we get another agent?
Chainani is expensive, and the paper work is so much.
-Man, you don't... Photographer: Hold on.
Can't you wait for two minutes?
If you wanna see if this man is right or not, then look at me.
Don't I look changed?
Look at the camera
Yeah.
-Smile please -Here's your smile
[Camera flash and click] Thank you.
What's your problem?
What?
I mean, why do you doubt Chainani at this stage?
Hey, is it the problem of money
or my going to US is your problem?
You've indeed changed.
Man, give it quickly.
-Let's go. -Why are you sulking?
He has a problem with everything? Even with Chainani.
Come on, man. Don't worry.
When he meets Chainani, he will realize what a great man Chainani is.
This fool and will spend his entire life in the same ditch.
Jigga, bring the car Is this any way to park it?
You're stuck.
Hey, bro. Hey, bro...
[Knocking on window]
You said this is not your car.
Yes, it isn't mine. It is his.
From where do such people come to Ahmadabad? Huh!
-May I come in sir? -Come in.
Yes, sir. Come in, dad. Come.
Oh, Bachubhai, come. Come sit.
-Please sit. -Dad, take a sit
-Thank you. -How's business?
[Laughs]
All good, with your grace.
Uh...
Why are you... sitting here?
You... go outside and fill the visa forms.
Yes sir.
-You've the photo, don't you? -Yes, yes.
Give it to that sir, they will guide you.
-Yes, sir. -Go. Go.
Where are you going Bachubhai? You sit.
[Laughs]
If he doesn’t fill the form on his own USA visa form
how will he go to the USA alone?
[Laughs} Uh...
He must be... Jigneshbhai? -Yes.
Yeah, I see... Harish...
he always talks about you.
Praises you a lot.
Yes, tell me Bachubhai.
I don't understand this University business.
Uh... [Laughs]
Come on, Jigneshbahi.
Why do you fear, when Chainani is here?
Of course, it's matter to worry.
This university's fees is very high.
-Can't we apply to some other university? -What do you...
Uh...uh... uh.
Good question.
See I will explain to you the entire scenario.
Actually, Jigneshbhai the matter is
normally two types of people go to U.S.from India.
The first kind is experts in every field, extremely capable.
Toppers in everything. Class, university, first everywhere.
As soon as they reach there, they get the admission.
They end up becoming Doctors and Engineers.
And the second kind is those who are...
Dumbo.
I mean zero in the head.
And they too have to go to USA.
They want to go too. And they do go. [Laughs]
It's not that they don't go. They do.
But what happens when they go there.
They don't get admission anywhere.
And then...
They work like mules, like dogs.
Same type of people who came from Dungarpur.
Same type of people.
But. But, but...
apart from them, there is a third category too...
People like you and me.
Average.
Now... our Harish also falls in to the same category.
Have you seen his GRE mark sheet?
How average it is?
Now with his average academics
which university will give him admission? [Laughs]
-Actually, we... -But I want,
that he gets admission in such a university
where he not only should gets admission and work too.
That's why I have make the necessary arrangements.
Look, Mr. Bachubhai and Dineshbhai.
I have a principle.
That whoever...
whoever goes from India to U.S.A. through Chainani
he should land in USA.
And upon landing he should proudly say, Yes...
"Yes!" [Bangs the table]
"I'm through Chainani
and my time starts now" [Thump]
So you mean, he'll be able to open his Motel?
That's what I'm saying.
I will get him admission in such a university
where he can work without restrictions.
No all that's fine but...
Can we get some more information about this university?
Why not? Uh, why not.
Uh, Sam, give me the brochure.
Yeah thanks. Yeah.
Here, take it.
This... this is Sun Valley University.
And this is such a university, where while still studying,
you are permitted to work for more than 20 hours here.
That means, dad...
he can study as well as work there.
That's it. Then fix the deal.
[Laughs] Sure.
But, but, but...
we will have to immediately transfer the money there.
Because, uh...
if the last date of admission is there, it will be a problem.
Please give us some time for it.
Uh... eh...
Jigneshbhai, this...
No, no. Money will be arranged.
Ah... I will send you the money by tomorrow. Yeah.
[Laughs] Yup. Good.
Though you have promised the money
but where will you mange it from?
Now I will have to arrange for it, no?
Idiot!
-Yes, Atul? -Yes, sir.
Bachu here.
Yes, tell me.
Man, we have to arrange for a fifty grand urgently?
'Fifty.. It will be bit difficult.'
Please see, if you can arrange it.'
-Alright. -Okay.
-Let me know. Thank you. -Yeah, sure.
[Inaudible phone conversation]
[Car door shutting]
Why, man...
Why were you so animated over the phone?
You were saying you have to do the setting for the money.
Now you won't have to do it.
I have managed it.
[Car engine revving]
Something wrong?
Nothing.
There is something wrong.
Leave it, dad.
What's the matter, tell me?
Few people are just too adamant.
I hate them.
Okay, so you are talking about...
Harish. Yeah?
Yeah, dad.
He is... absolutely crazy.
Doesn’t understand at all.
Uh, uh...
He's taken to his father.
You know how hard I tried explaining to him.
But he is just not ready to listen.
At least you got a chance to explain.
I didn't even have that opportunity.
Anyway.
Don't worry.
I hope I can do something.
Okay?
♪ This youth is so crazy ♪
♪ Come, my queen. open up, my queen ♪
♪ Where are you flying off to ♪
Harish, shut the kitchen door,
And come quickly.
-Bro. -Yes?
I just spoke with Chainanibhai, The money has been transferred.
-Is that so? -You are awesome, bro!
Yeah.
Bro, Sorry about what happened in the morning.
Forget it now.
-Put the video on, hurry. -Which one should I put on?

-Then Chinese, it is! -Yeah, Chinese.
Come, come.

I've come with a friend of mine.
I think I know everyone here. Whom have you come with?
Um, Harish.
I don't know him.
But...
I'm sure you are here for Kevin.
-Ya, he is a friend of his. Yeah. - You're not having a drink?
I don't normally have a drink.
I don't know if I should be saying this.
Kevin... Kevin is a 'Jugadu'.
-True 'Jugadu' guy. -Jugadu?
Um...
Um.
You know, guys who like to fix up, fix up things for people.
I mean, stealing pen-pencils in the school.
Or leaking exam papers in college.
That was all fine,
but I wonder who he has suckered into sponsoring his U.S.A. dream.
Poor guy.
So... yeah.
I pity situation, U.S.A guy.
[Laughs]
Uh-hm. Duffer.
-What else to call him? -Yeah.
Well, Its life... happens.
This happens.

Can I tell you something?
Yes.
Kevin...
Uh... You don't meet him.
Why?
What do you mean?
I don't know... like...
I don't feel the right vibe from him, you know.
What does it mean, Aayushi?
Just don't meet him.
But why?
He is not the right guy.
Why are you saying this?
He has helped me a lot in my US preparation.
Why do you keep talking about going to the U.S. all the time?
What's there after all?
Everything is here.
Look...
Your mom is here.
Your dad is here.
Your brother Jignesh is here.
His wife is here.
They will have a baby now.
I think you've had too much to drink.
I'm here.
And I want you to be here also.
[Laughs]
Don't go to the U.S.
You will not go to U.S. You won't go to U.S.
[Laughs]
I love you.
You won't believe me?
Wait.
I'll prove.
'These people are of big promises.'
'Besides, how can you judge what their true intentions are?'
'Continue with your preparations...
'You won't go to U.S.'
...and stop meeting Aayushi'
Yes, I will return your money. I'm not going to run away with it
So what if it's few days late, it will be paid ultimately.
What?
Look, bro. don't you dare threaten me!
If you threaten me, I won't return the money, I warn you.
Otherwise...
What?
No, no, that isn't what I meant...
Um.. No, don't do that!... I will give you your money today.
I'll pay up this evening, ok?
Oh, no. You... Please, sir, sir...
Sis...
How long will you and Bhavna do all the housework alone?
Have you found any suitable bride for Harish or not?
-We considered a lot of girls for him. -Yeah?
From New York... Nairobi and Dallas. [Laughs]
But he didn't like anyone of them.
Tell me if you have any girl from America in mind?
Yes there is one. You know her well.
-Oh, what are you saying? -Really?
Get to the point, Ishwar.
[Laughs]
Bachu, to tell you the truth I had come to India
to settle down.
Oh, the Motel King wants to settle down here!
Say something which can be understood.
Hey, Bachu. You keep calling me the Motel King all the time
but what I have lost going there, you have no idea.
But, yes. How much dollars you earned there,
I have good idea of it.
Huh.. let it be now.
That is what I'm saying. Just come to the point.
Yeah... the point is...
Aayushi and Harish like each other.
-Yeah... -Hm?
And you know that.
Yes
When you first came down to India,
then, for few moments I felt,
that you have come to meet me at last.
But the moment I saw you and your daughter, in social function...
Thereafter, every incident...
The way...
you entered my house with Aayushi,
the way she gradually started hanging out with my son Harish,
she kept making you reason for coming here stronger to me.
I was aware,
that sooner or later you would bring up this topic.
Yes, why not?
If my daughter,
instead of marrying in some other family,
if she marries in to my friend's family, so what's wrong in it?
Why don't you say, before your daughter ruins some other family,
-why shouldn't it be my house. -What?
After all, she is your daughter.
And friend...
When, before informing,
you left for the U.S. alone, that very day our friendship ended.
I understand your game.
And today the proposal you have come up with,
even if you beg to me, Ishwar,
I shall not give my Harish to you.
I understand all your game plan.
Oh, but...
You ruined my dreams going with you to U.S...
and now you are up to ruining my son's dream too.
-I won't let this happen again. -Hey...
Now the day is not far when he will get his visa.
Why are you doing this?
Why don't you talk calmly?
You don't know anything.
If anyone who had come with a genuine proposal for marriage,
he would have left, hearing these words by now.
I know his intentions very well.
Hey, but Ishwarbhai... uh...
Wow! This is delicious, sis. You have magic your hand. Great.
Sir... Sir, try this 'Khaman'.
-Yeah. -Thank you, Sir...
Bro...
Bachubhai, the thing is...
-You have settled his career. -Sir, it's you.
You have completely settled him career wise. -Hm.
But now also think how to settle him in personal life.
Sir, Kevin once told me...
He said,"No personal life in professional journey."
Now, I have only one goal...
America.
-But, that's the way it should be. -Good, good, good.
-So true. -Thank you, sir.
But, Where is Kevin? Party didn't come?
Yes, sir. I called him many times.
He's not picking up. No response.
Uh... as I have come alone here, do you mind it?
Uh, no, no! These guys are just...
Uh... please have some 'Dhokla. [Laughs]
-Sir... -Oh, no. Thank you.
Please have some.
Now, see...
What I want is...
Once he goes for the visa,
before that we should have a mock rehearsal
so that we know what they're going to ask in interview.
Like, what they say... net practice.
What's the need of it?
You see, what I want is,
whenever he goes for the visa interview,
and when he returns, he should only come to pick up his bag,
to go the airport straight away. Whoosh.
[Laughing]
That means more expenses?
No. We don't have more money to spend.
You want to go to war too
and don't want to wield weapon too, how will it do?
On, no, no, sir. Go ahead with whatever you see fit.
-Yes. -Money is not an issue at all.
-Fine. -The way you say, it is.
[Chair creaking]
Oh!
So you are the 'Topa' that rejected me. Yeah?
Gentleman...
'Topa.'
Oh.
Topa means gentleman in Gujarati.
If you are finished swinging, can we get down to business?
Oh, totally. I was waiting for you.
Yeah, right, right.
Now, Mr. Patel. What are your hobbies?
My hobbies... is to ride my bike,
watch Television,
And do internet. Facebook I love.
Oh! That's wonderful...
And, what is the... the issue here?
No, I am Bachubhai's issue.
Who's this?
My father.
You are your father's issue?
Yes
Oh, and you don't have an issue?
Sir, your research is weak.
You did not read the file...
I have written
Marital Status: 'Single'.
Ohh! I mean, are you impossible or just trying to make a fool of me?
Sir, there is a saying in English,
Nothing is impossible...
You should know.
English?
I gotta come all the way to India to learn English, from a Gujarati.
You should know, yes.
You mean Yes., or you mean, No?
Yes
Uh, this is the issue.
Your shaking your head is the issue here.
Ok.
Yes
Can we get back to business?
Ok, in your...
Yes.
I am smart, sir.
Out, Patel, out!
Get out of here! Go!
Ok.
-God! I don't know how to speak to you! -Yeah, Topa.
I mean, I mean this problem...
-You're calling me Topa. Uh, Topa. -Yeah.
Huh!
I had been to the doctor today.
Yeah?
Alone.
Doctor was saying...
your husband is not to be seen nowadays.
Hmm.
For a child, as a mother is responsible,
the father is also as much responsible.
Yes.
And yes, completions have increased.
he has asked to take bit more care.
All right.
What's "all right"?
Is it all right that complications have increased?
But what can I do in it?
Why are you talking like this?
Any problem?
Problem? I am the problem, right?
Don't you know?
If there is a problem in this house, who is responsible? Jignesh.
What's wrong?
Come on, I had a chance to prove that I too can do something.
But everything has gone down the drain.
Oh, but what has happened as such?
I took a risk when I arranged for the money for Harish's admission.
I thought I would be able to repay them on time, but...
But, now they are continuously calling me up,
threatening me to pay up the money in two days or else...
[Gasps]
Forget all this.
What I say,
we say we should flee somewhere. Leave this house and go.
If our baby lives here,
he will also become a moron like me.
I say, I'm only worried about our family now... Let's go away.
Why are you talking about family?
Only three people don't make a family.
Money can be arranged from anywhere.
But this house and people here, is our family
Look, I swear you by our baby, that you do any such thing.
I'm not going anywhere.
Mr. Patel a good knowledge of American culture
is important if you want to get a visa, you understand?
Right. - I heard you are cricket player.
-You like cricket? -Yes, yes.
- Okay. Now... -A lot.
In U.S.A the big game is baseball.
Baseball. - Yeah baseball, you got it.
Now in baseball we got how many innings?
-Two innings cricket... -Yeah, that's in your cricket.
In baseball there is nine innings.
-Sir, yes... - Can you just switch it off. Thank you.
-How many innings? Nine Innings. -Nine. - Right
-Nine innings. -And there no sixe.
There are home run. What you hit?
-Home run. -Home run.
Can you just keep that quiet.
Sir, sorry.
Yeah, that's all right now.
Now in home run you run around the bases.
Oh like Garba dance? [Mobile ringing]
And would you just keep that on silent, please?
Not mine, it is yours.
Oh! It's mine.
-Um, it is mine. [Mobile ringing] -Yes, sir.
Yeah, um... no problem.
Hunky-dory, hunky-dory. That's fine. Right on.
Chao. Eh.
Sir you were saying about home run. -Uh... No. No infarct...
In fact, we've got to make a home run now.
Okay we gotta to go because you know... -Sir...
It's a home run, we got to uh... run around the bases.
-Come on, come on... -It's half an hour to go.
No no, you are quick today. You're so good. You got to meet my friend.
In you go, in you go. First you, first you.
-Yeah, yeah. -Sir...
Sir but... thank you sir.
-Good bye! Good bye! [Mobile ringing] -Oh, man!
Hello?
Hey, Raheel, man.
Once I cut the phone once it means I'm busy, man.
What?
Female news anchor: 'Today's dawn in India,
has brought with it a gloomy darkness for the Indians living in America.'
'It has been reported that from the unauthorized American universities,
one, Sun valley University,
312 Indian students have been arrested.'
'This case, from illegal immigration,
to illegal work permit and many visas case will come to light.'
The Indian students have been radio tagged.'
'A student, Kevin Trivedi, a young man from Ahmadabad has also been detained.'
'Deportation of these students is being considered.'
Oh, Bachubhai, come.
Oh, you too have a seat. Um...
Man, congratulations!
Son, if Chainani extends his hand in life,
one grabs it.
Sir, what university have you got me into? It is a fraud!
So what?
Think about how lucky you are.
What if you had gone there and got stuck then?
What do you mean by "got stuck?
Are you in your senses?
[Laughs] Bachubhai.
Bachubhai...
You see, whatever has happened with you,
it has happened due to Kevin.
-Due to Kevin? -Yeah.
Kevin went to U.S. on the sponsorship papers you had submitted.
What?
Yes.
But it's different matter that he got caught there, it's his bad luck.
But think, how lucky your son is.
He is still here. Didn't get caught. [Laughs]
You mean, someone goes taking our sponsorship paper,
and we should just keep watching? Hoo!
I will file a police complaint.
Yes, go ahead. Call the cops.
-I too will ask them to inquire with you. -What?
Where did your elder son,
got the money from, to pay me.
Sir, you called me son, and you're doing this now?
Just because I called you my son you are still standing here.
Otherwise I'd have kicked you out.
And you hadn't come to me on your own.
You'd came through Kevin,
because he was my client.
So you also do the same what Kevin did.
Uh... see I will explain...
'Forget the fact that your documents are gone, all right?'
Now you get hold of such a person,
on whose documents you can go to USA.'
'And many such desperate people are going around, get anyone of them.'
'All right? You catch someone,
trap someone, and I shall send you.'
'And I will send you to U.S. for free.'
'This is Daulatram Chainani's word.'
This means the two of them together defrauded us.
Ah...
Kevin used your shoulder to fire his gun and went to USA.
You get someone else.
Fire you gun from his shoulder and go to USA.
I will give you free service, man.
No! We don't want to get into all that.
-You just return our money, that's all. -Yeah.
I will return. I'll return the money.
But where will you get the papers from?
You need papers too, don't you?
Want to go to USA or not? [Laughs]
Come see me after 3-4 days. Hm? Uh...
Sam, when is my next meeting?
-Sir, at five o'clock -Give me my jacket.
Come after 4-5 days, meet me...
Hm. And we will talk then. Ok?
[Clears throat] Hm.
-I will kill you! -Hey, hey...
Why are you weakening your case?
Don't you want to go to U.S.?
Don't mess with the sir.
Make your father see reason.
Bachubhai.
If I file a criminal case against your son...
then forget about going U.S,
he won't even be able to return home from the jail.
-Get aside. -Dad, let him go.
Uh...
You should take things calmly in this matter.
Think twice before taking any step.
He is our elder son.
Elder?
Even a little child knows not to bite off more than it can chew.
And you call him elder?
More than Chainani, this 'elder son' has committed this fraud.
He has drowned us.
What was the need to do all this?
Whom did you want to show off?
I too can ask you the same question.
What was the need for you to do all this with us?
Who did you have to show off?
What are you talking? Are you completely insane?
Idiot!
Yes, I am. I am an idiot.
That is what you've called me since childhood... "Idiot"
Hey...
A 30 year old man,
who has a wife and who is about to become a father,
what did you call him "Idiot".
A man who takes risks and brings the money,
not for himself,
in order to fulfil your dream of going to the U.S,
what do you call him? "An idiot".
Since childhood I had a wish that at least once you tell me...
"Son, you aren't an idiot."
But today, you said it again...
"Idiot".
Dad, every individual has a self-respect in him.
And if you keep on nagging him, it breaks down.
And what that person is called, do you know?
Yes, I am. I am an idiot!
But do you know what you are?
Dad, why didn’t you ever ask me,
"Son, what do you want to do?"
Or, "Harish you want to become?"
Brother...
And you don't count mummy at all.
A person who foists his incomplete dreams on others,
he is called selfish... selfish.
Just producing children doesn't make one a father.
If you are a father, behave like one.

No need to go to the U.S..
Do you live your life for me?
Harish, you too decide,
what do you want to do next.
I don't want to hear these words from you too.
So... do what you wish.
Go wherever you wish.
Live with whoever you wish to.
Thinking of going to US...
not needed.
[Phone ringing]
[Phone being lifted]
[Phone ring, beep]
Yeah?
'Hello, Bachubhai, how are you? Mukesh here.'
Just going on, bro... tell me.
So what happened about Harish's going to America.?
Nothing.
We've dropped the idea
'You mean, migrating to US is cancelled?'
Yes, don't want to go to US.
We will settle here.
So why you called?
'Remember, you had given me a file...
'So I found a passport which is a match for Harish.'
'But now that you don't want to go to US then...
-No, no, Mukeshbhi... -...I've other candidate ready.'
-So let it be. -...you didn't get my joke.
[Speaking indistinct over phone]
[Click of phone]
Come on now, hurry up!
But, what happened?
Doctor: Jigneshbhai.
The complications have increased now.
We will need to operate on Bhavna immediately.
Do this. Consult your family and sign these papers.
I don't have any family.
I am my own family.
[Flip of paper]
Thank you.
Nothing more can be done in this case now.
I had advised you to go to a reputable person.
-What will happen now? -Now it's that.
There is only way out now.
Harish, you still want to go to US?
If you keep thinking, you'll miss the flight.
Yes, Mukeshbhai, he will go.
But think once again, it's a fake passport.
No problem at all.
Alright then.
So start packing.
Will you be able to arrange money at such a short notice?
Don't worry about it, Mukeshbhai.
Actually, you've saved my honor.
Uncle?
How is your wife?
Jignesh.
Is everything alright?
Yes. [Mobile ringing]
Just a minute.
[Mobile ringing]
Yeah.
'Jigneshbhai, this is Atul.'
Are you aware how much money sir has raised?
'He has mortgaged all our properties.'
He has instructed me not to tell you.
'Why don't you stop him?'
Let him do whatever he wants.
I don't have anything to do with him anymore.
Harish...
-Where is your dad? -Getting ready.
Before he comes out, Call up Jignesh...
Quickly.
Call him.
[Mobile ringing]
Yes?
'Hello, Jignesh.'
Harish is going to the U.S. tonight.
We've no idea when he will return.
'Son, he is your brother.'
'At least meet him once.'
Hello!
Who will bring the other bag?
[Thud]
Um...
Uncle, you go ahead. We will bring Harish with us.
Hm... Uh, uh.. go ahead.
-But don't go roaming about. -Yeah.
And put these two bags in my car.
-Yes uncle, -We will meet you there.
-Hm. -Let's go.
-Come on, guy. Hop in. - Hey, wait!
You drive for the last time in India.
Later you may not...
And don't forget to pick up fatso on the way.
Oh yes, the fatso must be stuffing himself somewhere.
[Car doors closing]
What's the matter Jignesh? What's it?
Hm?
Harish is going to the U.S... Illegally.
Never to return.
Then what are you waiting for?
He is your brother, stop him.
[Deep sigh]
[Car speeding]
Come bro.
-In four of us is one leaving for good. -Yeah.
Now there will be no more of roadside tea and midnight cigarettes.
[Laughs] Oh, man...
[Sound of speeding car]
Harish, listen...
-There is depression in America. -Yeah.
But do call as every ten of fifteen days
Or give us a miss call, we will call you back.
[All laugh]
Hey, Jigar take out the cigarettes. - Yes.
One last smoke together.
-You are right. -Got it, bro?
[Song playing on radio]
-Give it to me. -What?
Hey, Hari. You smoke?
Does your father know?
Of course.
They blow smoke on each other's faces at times... no Harish?
[Laughing]
Come on, what difference it makes whether he knows or not.
Yeah.
Besides our bro is now a free dog.
What say Harish?
[Making barking sound]
[Laughing loudly] -Hey!
Hey get in. Get inside.
[Laughing]
-Finally you made it, brother. -Yeah.
[Loud music playing]
Listen, your favourite track
[Loud music]
[Screeching of Tyre, bang]
[Scream]
[Loud music continues]
-Hey... Uncle, you are wasting your time.
I am not going leave Bhavna in this condition and go anywhere.
[Sighs]
Harish, Run from here
Run...
[Shouting]
Hey, what happened to you?
-I was in an accident. - Let's go to the hospital first.
What going to Doctor?
This is his flight to Mumbai, he going to America.
Now you move. Hurry.
Move.
Dad: 'Pradyuman.'
'Now also get me honoured in the society'
My son has gone to...
America.
Oh, I see. Can't you believe it.
Then, here talk to your society's 'Global Gujarati'.
What do you say, Ishwar?
[Snatches... beep]
[Sound of phone dropping]
This is insanity, Bachu! Insanity!
Is it?
It isn't insanity when you went, but it is when my son does?
-Enough! -Now, I will...
Now, you listen to me!
What do you think?
I became a Motel King immediately upon landing in America?
It wasn't like that, Bachu.
I only know what my plight when I reached there.
Hey, the dream we nurture about the America,
nothing of the sort happens there.
After going there, I've changed bed sheets.
I have washed beer glasses and bottles in bars.
The dream we weave,
it is far different from the reality.
And... after my wife, Sharda's death...
with what difficulty I have brought up Aayushi...
it's only known to me.
But what's it to you...
you only see Motel".
Today...
this Motel King of your has everything.
But there is nothing in the end.
I have lost a lot much, Bachu.
Most importantly, I have lost a best friend like you.
What do you think?
Why didn't I return back to India all this while?
Because I was an illegal immigrant, that's why.
It took years for me
to become legal immigrant.
And during this period I lost my parents
and I couldn't even come to perform their last rites.
All I could do was, give Aayushi what happiness I could.
To establish relationships
and to maintain it, tales a life time.
But it doesn't take a moment to break it.
Hey, we happened to be blessed.
Both us, you and me, have our children with us.
Think it over, think.
And ask yourself
what you have lost to gain what.
What insane dream you were nurturing.
But this obstinacy of yours
you have made Harish an illegal immigrant.
All his life he won't be able to return.
And you've already lost Jignesh, haven't you?
You've lost him, right?
Now the two of you can spend your entire lives in loneliness here!
-Calm down, papa. -Huh!
Aunty, where is Jigneshbhai?
Oh... what happened?
Why're you asking about Jignesh?
Aunty...
We were waylaid by three or four ruffians, who started beating us.
And they have admitted Jigar in some hospital.
And... They mentioned something about Jigneshbhai owing them money...
Yes.
Do you see, Bachu?
Because of your blind obsession, everyone is facing problems.
It's all over now.
No.
Everything is not over yet.
[Female announcer on public address]
Female announcer: 'Passengers please pay attention.]
'Flight number 803 going to Manchester...'
Son,
will you tel me, what am I supposed to fill here?
Aunty.
You may not recognize me, but I had seen you in Mumbai's visa office.
I am very happy that you finally got the visa.
Yes.
Give me passport for a minute.
Finally God granted us our wish.
Aunty, uh... where is uncle?
Like I said...
Finally God granted us our wish.
My son, though he forgot to fulfil his duty...
But I'm his mother, aren't I?
So, I am going to remind him.
