after so many years. But don't be alarmed.
I faced a lot of difficulty trying to figure out...
how to compose this letter.
For years I've been waiting to communicate to you.
I am glad that I have finally gathered this strength to write to you.
I've been waiting for this moment for so long.
How are you Ruth? I am your father.
Goodness!
It feels so strange to even mention this but I know you don't want to see me.
It hurts a lot to think that
I am so far away from you and for so long.
During all these years that I've spent without you
I've been tricking myself to believe that one day...
Believing that one day I'll have the opportunity
to meet and talk to my little girl.
We must eat homemade food only. Look here.
Come on, eat it.
-Excuse me? -Yes.
-Where do I pick up my passport? -Next table.
Thanks.
Excuse me.
Is this where I pick up my passport?
Wait in the line.
Ok. Thanks.
-Photos? -Yes, I have them.
-You speak Hindi? -Yes, a little bit.
-Marathi? -No.
Speak English, Original Passport?
-Where do I go sir? -Next counter. Next!
-So, you want to renew your VISA? -Yes, sir.
Why?
I really like India.
You also speak Hindi?
Yes.
You know you can't work on a tourist visa, right?
I know, sir.
You know it.
You like India?
Absolutely.
And, how about Indians?
Hey England girl. Come.
Where all will you travel?
Only to Pune, sir.
You tell us when you leave the city.
Sure.
But why you come so late to renew VISA?
Sorry sir, I forgot about it.
-Don't forget next time. -I won't.
So, where else have you visited in the past year?
Just Pondicherry.
Pondicherry.
There is that place there no... for foreigners?
Auroville.
What did you do there?
Massage training.
Massage.
Yeah. Like Swedish... Thai... massage.
And now back to Pondicherry?
No sir.
Take this to your local police station.
Get the signatures and bring it back here.
Thank you very much sir.
Kalbadevi.
You're a Scorpio, no?
I've read up about Cancerians. Not happening at all between us.
Linda Goodman also says the same thing.
The Sun signs woman... Love signs...
Ruth... Swedish for the gentleman.
I am telling you... there's no chance between us.
Please take off your clothes and lie down. Here is the towel.
I ran you through F.L.A.M.E.S, you know...
If you put a double O in your name...
it turns out to be E. E for enemies.
And when you put a U, then it's S of all things.
Dream on.
F. It's not fuck, its friendship. Idiot!
Your name is Ruth?
Yes.
I am Lynn.
Hi Lynn.
Turn around please.
You want a handshake?
-What? -Handshake... Handjob.
Well?
Thousand rupees.
Yeah.
Can I make a small donation to the Police Force?
I mean... towards deceased Officers' widows?
Umm... or anything else...
We could help each other out...?
"Tangled in its ugly deeds, this world!"
"Without wisdom, How will you cross over?"
"Tangled in its ugly deeds, this world!"
"Without wisdom, How will you cross over?"
"You found a stone, Made an idol to worship"
"If that god had power, Wouldn't it destroy you?"
"You get coconuts to worship your god"
"Two little pieces you Give as an offering"
"The coconut you swallow whole!"
"Tangled in its ugly deeds, this world!"
"Without wisdom How will you cross over?"
"Tangled in its ugly deeds, this world!"
If you ask too many questions around here...
people get suspicious.
These people are very insecure about how the world perceives them.
They've gone as far as registering their Lord's name.
People have even started...
selling Jeanswear in their Lord's name.
Let me quietly find out what I can do. Ok?
Let's keep in touch.
Whenever I find out something, I'll mail you.
-Ok? -Ok.
"You pray for a son, Pledge a lamb in return"
"Your father alive, Left you hungry, uncared for"
"After his death, you feed others"
"Hear me, says Kabir"
"Hear me, says Kabir, Seek and you shall find"
"In this world tangled in delusion, The self cannot be seen"
-Sir. -Come on Monday.
"In this world tangled in delusion, The self cannot be seen"
"The self cannot be seen"
"What I was afraid of has happened?"
"Go, you searching wind, go away"
-You're Maya? -Yeah.
I am Diwakar.
You helped her, thank you.
She's a nice girl.
Your turn, sing with an 'N'...
Enough. You'll break them.
Your muscles are getting along too.
How did it go in Pune?
Nothing much.
They've gone as far as registering their Lord's name.
Turn.
It will take time.
It took me 8 months in Pondicherry... to know that Arjun Patel was in Goa.
Then what happened?
Then it took me another 5 months to...
find out he'd left Goa for this Pune Ashram.
I have no clue how much time it will take here.
It was a good decision to come work here.
Little more.
And you can dance with the trees.
And you can help a communion.
Even with the rocks, the mountains and the stars.
Accept this.
There is no enlightenment.
Let me define it.
Enlightenment...
Surprise!
Fuck.
I told you...
Check out the clarity.
Yeah.
Who is the old man?
Can you see the difference or not?
You wait for a month and I'll install a Home Theatre here.
And blu ray too.
Your home will become a private Cinemax. Red Lounge.
What?
-Thanks. -Thanks?
Is this how you thank me?
Come here, sit with me.
You smell good. What is it?
Nothing.
You have worn something.
Nothing, really.
I'll have to make sure.
Today... I am not going to spare you today.
Did you notice my tie? Jim Morrisson...
Wore it especially for you.
What's that?
Condom.
What's with you?
You know I can't do it.
How will you know you can't do it unless you try it.
Trust me baby... we will take it slow.
No.
Do you trust me or not?
No...
Don't worry, nothing's going to go wrong.
-No. No... -Baby, just relax.
Leave me... get off me.
-Baby... -Leave me. I said no.
What the fuck is your problem?
What do you want me to do?
And then you complain that you don't see me enough.
Sex all the time!
I mean... why... why does it always have to be about sex?
Always?
It should be about it for once.
-No! -No.
Baby I am so frustrated. What the fuck you want me to do?
-You want me to go fuck somebody else? -No.
What is it that you want?
You just want me to sit and stare at your face all day...
What do I do?
Prashant.
-What is it? -Take off your pants and lie down.
And?
You don't have to stay frustrated.
You're going to give me your massage.
Like your clients?
Please.
Give me some time.
I feel like it too...
But... my mind is preoccupied with my father...
Slowly, we will do...
Can you not talk?
Yeah, yes... baby...
Phone...
Just be quiet.
Yeah... tell me...
What?
But it's Chittiapa's stash.
What if we get caught?
No... do whatever stupid shit you guys want to
I'll just wait in the car.
Yeah... I'll be there.
Baby, I've got to go.
"I staggered"
"My feet got stuck on the road"
"I got tired"
"It was a stressful day"
Minging.
-Minging. -Mingin'.
-Minging.
Minging.
Mingin'.
-Mingin'. -Mingin'.
Mingin'.
Bloomin'.
Wanker.
-Progress. -Progress.
-Specky. -Specky.
Idiot!
"The water was gushing"
Eh, where are you going?
Isn't Bandra that way?
No, no Madam... we'll... uh... we'll take the right ahead.
Don't make a cunt out of me because I am a foreigner.
What was that? Say that again.
Don't make a cunt out of me because I am a foreigner.
Ok madam, now say this... Mother...
Mother...
Fuck. Motherfuck...
Let's move.
Hello Madam.
How are you?
Have you got your VISA?
No.
No VISA yet?
You know Madam, I was wondering
a week's holiday will do me good
Goa, Manali, Pondicherry.
Only I wish the flights were cheaper.
How much is the ticket?
Ten thousand?
Oh... wow... You've kept it ready for me.
How about a ticket to New York?
You might as well settle there.
Nice Madam. Thank you.
New York.
Shot glasses and all... those... I had six of those...
So I was like cool man he's into me and all.
And we're close to kissing and then you know what he says?
He says, you know, you are very beautiful
and every time I meet amazing women, it takes time for me to tell them...
And I am like yeah yeah, yeah, like whaa whaa whaa...
He says, and he says, I am gay.
Can you imagine it?
Then I discovered he was bisexual.
And then I was like yeah, bitch, like what the fuck... after all that.
Hey Ruth, phone's been ringing for you non-stop since morning.
-Really? -Yes, they have been asking for you.
They want to know if Ruth Madam's free.
I want to take an hour off this afternoon.
No way! You say an hour and it becomes three.
I have to meet that Embassy guy.
Did you find anything out?
No. They must know something but they're not giving me any information.
I can't believe you don't have a photograph.
A single photograph of your own father.
My mother hates him.
Ruth, here comes your Wrangler boy.
Please come.
You have a nice smile.
Thanks.
I like your teeth.
Thanks.
It's sort of like Bugs Bunny meets Julia Roberts.
I like bugs bunny.
So, where do you stay?
I really don't see what that's got to do with anything.
Oh...
Look love, you want me to find your dad, don't you?
Yes I do.
Well, I can get your address from your papers...
Of course you can.
Look, I am sorry...
I just get a bit paranoid, you know...
being a young white girl in Bombay.
I get asked a lot of dodgy questions.
Excuse me.
How's your mom?
Fine.
Where is she?
-She lives in Brighton. -Oh... Brighton?
Nice. Very nice.
Any siblings?
No.
My sister died years ago.
Oh... I am sorry.
It's all right.
Years ago?
How old was she?
15... She killed herself.
That's when my dad left.
I don't think he could deal with her death, he loved her so much.
And mom just went quiet on me after that
she refused to talk about him.
I don't think she ever forgave him for leaving her.
She tore off all his memories.
Have a look at this.
That's Emily, mom, me...
That's my dad's hand.
That's a Rolex.
What?
The watch. It's a Rolex.
My God... What...
It must be costing 30 lakhs...
My God! It's a Rolex.
Hey, your dad's an Indian.
Yeah.
But he had a British passport which is why I called you.
He's bound to be listed in your records somewhere.
You know, there are lots of guys with British passports...
Lots...
A lot of them are affiliated to the Ashram.
But love, there isn't any Arjun Patel amongst them.
Hi Lynn.
Hi.
Have you seen it in a car?
What? Wheelie in a car?
Like this, from the side?
Two of the wheels hanging...
Check out the salute... Awesome stuff!
Who the hell are you lot?
What are you doing in my house?
Come sit down.
Sit down.
Sit, sit, sit...
Fucker, which road in Bangalore is this?
-Indranagar. Koramangala -Indranagar. The Ring road.
Is this Jaggesh?
Yeah yeah, it is. Is this Jaggesh?
No man, it's not Jaggesh. It's somebody who looks like him.
Who are you?
Ah... Chittiappa Siddanna Gowda.
Take it dear... Coffee, coffee...
Take, take.
Very nice coffee.
People in Bombay have no clue about making coffee.
Sorry, I turn off the TV... Sorry, sorry.
That's the AC remote...
I know.
I'll turn on the A/C.
It's hot, no?
-Back there. -Where?
You want the A/C set to Bangalore weather.
That's for the DVD player.
I know dear. I know. DVD player.
I get up to off the TV, I off the TV. Please on it.
Good.
Up there, elder bro.
I know, I know.
This is the one.
It's not turning off only. Hmm... puzzle.
Like Upendra's picture.
Ok.
Not offing... not offing.
Beats the shit out of us.
A labyrinth.
Ah...
Off!
You girlfriend?
Yes.
Where is boyfriend?
-He is not here. -I know. I know he is not here.
I checked already. Not here.
-Where he is? -I don't know.
You know. But you are not telling.
I know you know. But you are not telling.
-She's a dude. -Smart chicklet.
What do you want?
My money.
Go find Prashant. This is my house.
I know this is your house.
I know. I know everything.
-I don't have any money. -That also I know.
We already taken your money.
-How much is it? -57,000.
-In English please. -57,000.
That is my money.
-Sit down... sit down, sit down. -I want it back.
-That is my money I want it back. -Sit down.
Give it to me. I want that money.
It is my money. That is my hard earned money.
It's not that drug peddler's...
You want?
Hey...
Sit down.
Give it to us.
Look, look...
Hey, hey. Look, look.
Very hard money... I know.
Hey. Very hard.
1000 rupees Shake hand. I know.
What do you want?
I want you to say your name... Please.
Please say your name.
-Ruth. -What?
Ruth.
Cunt.
Cunt!
Nice.
I am dumb-fuckery.
Dumb-fuckery Gowda.
So, cunt...
We have already taken...
-57,000. -English, please.
57,000.
Your boyfriend giving to me...
One eighty minus fifty seven...
1 lakh 23 thousand.
Means, 123 shake hands.
I am kind, no? So you pay in kind.
When you come?
When do you want me to come?
If you come today, it's too early...
If you come tomorrow, it's too late.
You pick the time.
Sorry, I can't take your call right now.
Please leave your message after the beep. Thank you.
Prashant, it's Ruth. Call me back.
You've seen 'Sadma' right?
That's our story.
Look, I am Sridevi and you are Kamal Hasan.
I must've been mad to have gone for dinner with you the other day...
But now the tables have turned...
you're the one who's running behind the train...
you've basically missed the train that I am on...
Excuse me. Miss Sridevi...
When will Ruth be here?
She must be on her way.
Yes, so...
You don't get it, do you?
Sorry, sorry, sorry... So terribly sorry to have kept you waiting.
Wow! I wish I could speak English the way you do.
"So sorry to have kept you waiting."
You know what I would say?
Sorry for delay.
-But really I am sorry for delay. -No problem...
I know the traffic with this metro...
skylab, skywalk, skytrain coming up.
Firstly, people in Bombay have no clue about driving
they honk the hell out of us...
in this madness they also seem to forget how to drive.
The whole city turns into a huge driving school.
Yes.
-And there's so much digging too. -Don't get me started about the digging.
God works in mysterious ways and so does the Municipality.
Digging here, digging there.
Where they haven't dug up today, they certainly will tomorrow.
God knows what Temple of Doom they're excavating!
You know what I think?
I sometimes think this must be some big
Government conspiracy...
to fool us into believing that they are toiling for the people.
So that everybody thinks... what progress!
India shining.
Have you ever passed by the Lucky signal?
It's turned into the Bermuda Triangle.
What?
Lucky signal.
The Bermuda Triangle, haven't you heard of it?
There was a book on it.
In my days there was a film made on it too.
Yeah.
-You know what used to happen there? -What?
Everything, huge ships...
airplanes, people, everything used to disappear.
Nobody ever found out how.
Total chaos. Radio transitions were lost...
nobody could reach there.
Transmissions.
What?
Radio transmissions.
Yeah... the same thing.
You are right.
Turn over.
Your Hindi is getting better by the day.
Yeah. Now even the vegetable vendors quote the true price.
True price? It's the vegetable vendors...
asks for the right price.
Right price.
Thank you.
I see you haven't been doing the exercises I taught you.
I live on the fourth floor of a building that has no elevator.
It's quite an exercise climbing up.
Tires me out.
Diwakar... You need to take good care of your legs.
I am banking on you for it.
Ok.
I feel rejuvenated.
You are too good, my dear.
What'll I do without you?
I'll die for sure.
You're full of drama... a drama queen.
Now get going.
Thank you dear. Bless you.
-Hello. -Hello... Girlfriend.
What dear? You did not come only?
Listen, going and coming back would take an hour...
that means one client.
Can you come here instead?
Negotiations... is it?
Hey, you son of a gun.
Not there. Over there.
All right dear... You're calling. I'll come.
Lynn.
Do you ever smoke weed?
No.
You know, sometimes I get these weird trips...
like right now... I feel like I have shrunk.
You know... Like Alice in Wonderland.
Except, it's not me that's getting smaller.
It's the world that's getting larger and larger.
I just can't find the one person I am looking for.
I know.
I just can't find him.
I don't mean to be rude, but can we not talk?
I am in a hurry today.
I am sorry. Forgive me. I am so stoned.
What the fuck!
Baby...
Is that you Ruth? There's nobody else, no?
What the fuck have you done?
I am a jackass.
I am such a jerk.
What is this Prashant?
Where the hell were you?
How many times have I been calling you...
I'll do the cleaning. Let me do it.
You chill, I'll do it.
God! Really, what's your problem?
Are you retarded?
I mean really, what do you want? What!
What do you want from me?
I am talking to you damn it!
I know.
You know shit! Why are you laughing?
What's so funny Prashant? Tell me.
Nothing matters to you, nothing at all.
Where the fuck were you last night?
Who was that clown, what's his name... dumb-fuckery?
Baby... baby... I am sorry.
I am sorry. I fucked up. They're looking for me.
I know.
Your dumb-fuckery broke into the house...
slapped me, grabbed my money...
and he forced me to have sex with him.
You did it?
Not that sex.
How much money did he take?
Fuck off!
What's all this?
I don't want to say sorry again.
Help me... I want to go clean.
I want to quit everything.
You're mad.
Help me please.
I was waiting in the car.
I'd told them I would only drive the car and not get involved.
After a while an old man showed up and said...
come on. You're wanted.
We'd heard that Chitiappa had gone to Karnataka.
But it turned out the bugger was right there.
Sankalp was dead.
He's the one who brought us here.
What did he tell you guys?
He said there would be nobody there...
He said there would be nobody there.
That we would score a lot of Hash.
Is that the cookie he gave you?
And you losers jumped along?
Take your shirt and pants off.
I don't know what Tanni said to him in Kannada.
But Chitiappa took him in his gang.
Jayanagar.
How long have you been here?
Four years. Been four years, bro
Small-time jobs, bro.
What do you mean small-time jobs? Like pussification?
Writing too.
Son of a gun.
Writer.
-What? -Writer.
A writer?
Oh. What the fuck have you written?
Fuck that. Sing a Dr. Rajkumar song.
Move. Come on, move.
-Come on, move. -Please let me go, bro.
Hey, stop. Look here.
What's my stash worth?
2 lakhs.
The stash you came to steal is worth 2 lakhs.
Meaning, you'll pay me the 2 lakhs.
What's my stash worth?
2 lakhs.
How much does that make you owe me?
2 Lakhs.
When will you pay me?
Where will I get the money from?
I recovered eight grams from your pocket...
which is worth...
-20 thousand. -20 thousand.
So the rest...
180.
When will I have it?
If I don't give him his 1 Lakh 80 thousand he'll kill me.
What do I do? Where will I get that much money from?
Your friends fucked you over.
I made a mistake ok. I am sorry.
I was drunk and coked-out.
And they were my friends.
They were cokeheads.
Baby...
What baby, baby, baby... What can I do about it?
I can't go home.
So?
Let me stay here.
That way you can be with me every day.
In the meanwhile I'll arrange for the money.
Please.
-I want a ticket to Pune. -For when?
The day after.
What is your name?
Ruth.
R... U...
-T... H... -G... H?
-T... H... -T... H...
You want a happy ending?
Happy?
-I don't understand. -Do you want a handshake?
A handjob? This...
I don't understand.
Forget it.
Hello...
Yes I know, I got your missed calls.
How did you get this number anyway?
Do I look like Kareena Kapoor?
Was his name Peter by any chance?
Ok, tell me what's the color of my eyes?
No I am fine... I am just travelling.
I needed to get out... To see things.
No mom. It's not the same everywhere.
Listen to me... yeah?
You came to India when you were my age, right?
So... Right. So why can't you understand that I needed to...
Because Mom you would never have let me go.
You don't let me go clubbing for fuck's sake.
Don't lie to me.
I won Best Memory prize in school in Maggie Quiz Contest.
I never forget anything. Don't try to fool me.
Well you don't need to worry. I am fine.
I saved up... From that summer job.
You can't fool me. I know guys like you.
I was wondering when you were going to mention him.
Yes I know he's not dead.
No. Not yet. But I will.
How? How can you start on your Jesus crap
when you've lied to me all these years?
No, no. You don't stand a chance.
No... No, I am not listening to this.
Go after some lousy girl.
You don't know.
You can find many girls like that.
Fuck you!
Even better, become a Gigolo.
You'll make a lot of money.
Actually, forget it. Nobody would want your services anyway.
Are you nuts?
Tell that useless boyfriend of yours to pay up.
He doesn't have that kind of money.
He should take responsibility, no? It's his screw-up.
Doesn't make much of a difference.
It's an extra hand-job a day.
I know his type. He won't take more than 2 minutes.
When's he coming?
Eleven o' clock.
Do you know how Chitiyapa's father died?
No.
As a kid, Chitiyapa...
he used to live with his father.
The old man was an alcoholic.
Then one fine day, Chitiyapa was hungry.
So, his father went out to fetch some food.
And...
where did he end up? The local bar.
As soon as he entered the bar,
a cylinder blast blew the shit out of him.
Nothing remained.
Chitiyapa kept waiting for 3 long days, he didn't have a clue.
Apparently, the stupid fuck observes a fast
in the old man's memory on every New Moon.
Please hold...
Ruth...
Sir, Tea?
Like this only... You do...
Are you shy?
You do. Go on.
What is this?
-Lubricant. -What?
Lubricant... It's soft... Comfortable...
Soft... Ok... Do.
No look, huh. You only do.
Where should I look?
The wall...
Do.
Hey stop.
What happened dear?
Sorry.
What happened?
My father also used to say...
stand here and look at the wall.
He wouldn't let me move.
I was made to stare at the wall the whole day.
You no cry, huh... You do properly.
Nicely you do.
I used to stay with my father.
He was a drunk. Drinking through the day.
We ran out of milk one day.
So, he went out to fetch some.
And on the way he started drinking.
He was driving and drinking.
He was drinking and driving. When...
He crashed into a Gas cylinder truck which exploded and killed him.
I just kept waiting for him.
At times, I feel like I am still expecting him to come back.
What happened?
Why did you stop me?
What happened?
No, no. I am not into bearded men.
They look like goons.
These guys go around carrying guns only to throw their weight around.
Hmm... Imagine, the beard coming in the way every time one's eating...
Disgusting shit! Your boss came.
Are we leaving bro?
-Bro, what happened? -Call for the lift.
It must be stuck upstairs. I'll check on it, bro.
You go girl, go, go, please go...
Sir, are you ok?
Sir, some water...
Hey... Where's it, fucker?
Sir, can I get you something?
Sir, come again.
You're a mean one Ruth.
Downstairs.
Hey, hey, hey... What're you doing?
Sorry... Sorry ma'am.
It's my house.
I didn't know.
Listen! Use the loo inside.
Thank you.
Please come... Right ahead... On your left.
Hello.
Who was that?
Who knows. He wanted to pee.
-What, you don't even know him? -No.
And you let him in?
He was aiming for the door.
You should've kicked him on his balls.
-And what're you doing? -I also want to take a leak.
-Don't laugh! -Sorry.
Open...
Hang on... let him finish.
Baby, please unlock it... Not like I am going to join him.
I don't know what you'll do.
Baby please...
That's not the key.
Baby, where the fuck's the key?
He's on his way out.
Baby please, tell me where the key is.
-Baby please, I can't find it! -Thank you madam.
-Don't do it in front of the house again. -I can't control now.
Let me put the bags inside.
Wait a minute... I'll get a bucket...
Here... Here... Pee into this.
Fuck off!
Pronunciation.
What happened?
My stomach's gone for a toss.
Try getting some sleep.
I need something... Anything.
No.
Even Cough syrup will do.
Do you want some food?
No. Where's the key?
Will you have some Chinese?
Pork ribs...
-Give me the keys. -Egg fried noodles...
-Street dog with black bean sauce. -Fuck!
No?
Sushi-teriyaki-sashimi.
What the fuck are you doing?
Does it hurt a lot?
Where is the key!
I'll heat up some soup for you.
I don't want to eat anything.
Where is the key?
-Have some of this. -I don't want it!
You haven't eaten a morsel since yesterday.
I don't want it.
Show me how terrible I am and how kind you are.
What?
I'll clean up my own shit. Who the fuck are you, huh?
Mother Teresa?
I only want to help you.
You don't understand what I am going through. I could die.
Yeah, and whose fault is that?
Yeah, yeah, you behave as though you're immaculate.
To you I am trash... I stink.
For you, and your emotionless, perfectly controlled, rotten life.
You know nothing about my life, so shut your mouth.
Exactly, I know nothing about your feelings.
You're a bastard.
Oh yeah?
And you know everything right?
You're God's proudest creation.
"Look at me, I know it all...
I am so helpless, but really I am a good girl...
and I endure so much suffering... poor me."
"Look at my suffering... take a close look at it."
"I gift wrap it with ribbons and safeguard it under my pillow. "
"I suffer so much."
"In spite of that, I have no qualms about bringing relief
to frustrated pricks by jerking them off day-in, day-out."
You were the one who took me there.
Because I know that's what you're good at, and that's what you trip on.
-Fuck you! -Fuck you, fuck me... Fuck me.
You would be doing me a huge favor.
Tell me, what am I to you?
Nothing.
Nothing but a distraction.
Distraction?
Fuck!
So enlighten me my Virgin Mary, is there...
anything more in your sad life apart from a distraction such as I?
-Yes... There is. You want to know? -Please tell me.
What am I doing here? Why do you think I am out here?
Throwing away my dignity every day catering to...
to some wrinkled, repressed pricks, in some shithole in Bombay?
-I have no clue. -Because I need somebody.
I've always been bloody mother earth...
I've always bent over backwards for people like you.
Look at my life.
My mother wants me to be a Saint, you just want to fuck...
and the rest of the world just want their Happy Endings.
I want someone in my life, who cares...
and has no expectations you understand?
I need someone to love me unconditionally.
This letter is all I have going for me right now.
Somebody cares about me, somebody misses me...
somebody loves me and I have to find him.
I have to find him because
I can't take it anymore.
I need someone to hold me, and hug me...
Don't cry.
..and love me.
I have to find him.
I want to find him.
I don't remember much, I was too little. But...
I always felt like Dad loved my step-sister Emily more than me.
He'd spend hours with her.
I wished her dead.
When I was five she actually killed herself.
She got pregnant but didn't tell anyone.
She used...
She used to put my hand on her stomach and just cry.
I feel so afraid.
Hi Ruth.
Hi.
This is Divya... Divya, Ruth.
Shall we?
Tell her.
Ok.
Sorry. I feel like I am disturbing you.
But I am looking for someone.
His name's Arjun Patel... He's a Photographer...
and he's my Dad.
Ben.
His name is Benjamin Patel.
No. My Dad's name is Arjun Patel.
It used to be.
He took the name Benjamin Patel after he came back from England.
But then he'd written me a letter, and it was signed Arjun Patel.
That's because you knew him as Arjun Patel.
You knew him?
Yes.
I knew him...
I knew him as Ojas.
-Ojas? -Ojas?
All of us take an Ashram name while we're here.
His was Ojas.
Benjamin Patel... Ojas...
-Why so many names? -Why're you looking for him?
Because he's my dad.
So?
So I want to know him... See him... Meet him...
-What's he like? -He was really weird, I swear.
His pass here in the Ashram got cancelled.
He hasn't been back ever since.
What do you mean his pass got cancelled?
By cancelled I mean darling, that he was asked to leave.
Why?
I don't know. Nobody knows...
But you knew him well enough.
I was in fact with him when he wrote you that letter.
And?
And what?
Before he left, he just mentioned one thing...
that he is buying an apartment in Versova in Mumbai. That's all I know.
No, listen to me... listen to me.
I clearly remember you saying there was no Arjun Patel... right?
But you also said there were two photographers...
one was called Youssuf Patel and one was called Benjamin Patel.
No, you did. You did. I can go home and check.
The chat line is there.
I mean it's got to be there somewhere, I will email it to you.
No you did. I swear we were chatting the other day Benjamin Patel, yes.
Yes. Look, please find out. All right.
Ok. Bye.
Look madam, the records we maintain are that of criminals.
You know, people who've committed a crime.
Has this Benjamin Patel of yours ever committed a crime?
No.
You could do one thing... Where does he stay... Versova?
You could try the Versova Post office.
Excuse me.
I am looking for a man in Versova.
Meaning?
I mean I have his name, I need the address.
You have to talk to the postmaster.
-Where? -Over there.
Hello.
Namaste.
Can I have a minute with you?
Thank you.
I am Ruth Edscer. From England.
I am looking for a man in Versova. I've got his name.
Your Hindi is pretty good.
Can you please help me?
No.
We don't hand out addresses of people.
And we are very busy with the festivals, elections coming up too.
-It's too much. -Yes... I..
You see it's like this... I am too busy, I can't.
You see, it's not England.
Yes. Yes I would like to make a donation towards your festival...
or elections.
Please call me when you get any information.
This is my number.
It'll take time...
His address can only be known if there's any post in his name.
Sure. Can I have your number please?
Yes. Yes, yes...
Take my mobile number only... 982...
Hello Madam.
Hello... once again.
We hear you're working a lot these days.
Let alone a valid Work Permit, you don't even have a VISA.
How can this go on madam?
Is any of your vacation plan coming up?
Nothing I can think of.
My body's been behaving strangely today. Aching pain.
When shall I pay a visit? Aspa spa.
Fuck! Fuck!
Baby... where have you been? Left me stranded, tied up to a post.
I am famished. Where's the key?
Fucking hell! What's going on?
Hello sir.
You can take your clothes off and lie down.
Don't worry, he's used to it.
I'll just wash my hands and be right back.
What the hell's all this?
What could I do, sir? I've been tied up the last two days.
I had to do it on my clothes.
Baby... What's he doing here?
I am stepping out for a while.
Baby, I am just stepping out.
Ok.
Madam!
Baby, ba... Baby Madam!
Baby... I'll come back in a couple of days.
Hello.
Yeah. What're you doing? I am waiting.
Hey, you know these guys are really excited.
I'll tell you... They're like... out to have a good time.
And eager to meet you.
So his name's Benjamin Patel?
Yeah. But he goes by other names too.
Well, shouldn't be too difficult to find him.
These guys... They have their big diamond trade out of Brussels.
Big Investors.
You make them happy, they make me happy.
Who knows, they might even gift you a big stone or something.
How long do you think it'll be to find him?
Depends on how soon they sign the check.
Come on. Let's go.
Hey guys. Meet my friend Ruth.
Ruth, my friends. Sit.
Hey Ruth, tell them how old you are.
I am twenty.
Twenty! Ooh... that's really young, man!
Shall we? We'll move the party someplace interesting.
-Let's go. -Come Ruth.
Hi.
Prashant.
Hi. Come on.
Are you off somewhere?
Yes.
I have to talk to you.
-Not now. -It's important.
-Any problem? -No.
Yes, yes there is.
Let go, Prashant.
Listen, she does not want to talk to you. Let her go man.
-Let me go. -She is my girlfriend.
Who are you?
-Come on Peter, let's go. -Come on let's go.
Sorry love, see you later.
Peter wait.
I am sorry baby, you shouldn't have hit me.
Fuck off.
I don't like gold.
I don't dig it at all. Never really complements me.
I am allergic, no?
Leaves rashes on me.
Golden clothes are ok though... embroidery, border... But...
Can you not shut up?
Constantly blabbering on the phone.
Will you please shut up?
Let me get back to you later.
Aren't you ashamed?
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
For a mere thousand rupees?
I am talking to you. Listen...
I am talking to you.
-Leave her alone. -What?
Leave her alone.
-It's none of your business. -It is my business.
Anybody I care about is my business.
Stop screaming around here.
Don't create a scene. Ruth's not talking to you now.
It happens under your supervision.
That means you're in it too.
You're the one who's tutored her into this.
Look, what people do... And why is it that they do... What's it to you...
Don't give me this Psychology crap.
She never did it with you, right?
But our clients have their preferences. They aren't like you.
Don't justify her.
Do you want your massage or not?
-No, I don't. -Then get out.
You're wasting my time.
Don't give me the eye. I'll fucking poke them out.
Hello...
Yes... Yes, tell me.
Hang on a minute.
Yes... Yes...
Ok.
Got it.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
Ok.
"Tangled in its ugly deeds, this world!"
"Without wisdom, How will you cross over?"
"Tangled in its ugly deeds, this world!"
"Without wisdom, How will you cross over?"
"You found a stone, Made an idol to worship"
"If that god had power, Wouldn't it destroy you?"
"You get coconuts to worship your god"
"Two little pieces you give As an offering"
"The coconut you swallow whole!"
"Tangled in its ugly deeds, this world!"
"Without wisdom, How will you cross over?"
"Tangled in its ugly deeds, this world!"
"Without wisdom, How will you cross over?"
Hello...
-Yes? -Is Mr. Benjamin home?
No, he's not home. He's out for some work.
He had asked me to come.
In that case he must be on his way.
Do come in.
-What would you like -Water, Tea, Coffee?
-Tea. -Tea... Ok.
Aren't there any pictures of Mr. Ben here?
He's into clicking others' pictures, no?
Hello girlfriend... Happy Diwali...
-I need a Gun. What... What... Say again...
Ruth, where were you the whole day?
I've been trying to reach you.
Prashant's been here thrice already.
He kept repeating like a kid, "I am sorry, I am sorry". What's going on?
Can I stay over here tonight?
You can sleep at my place.
No. Here.
Ruth, are you ok?
Can I sleep over here?
Yeah.
Hi.
Lynn...
Yes?
Why do you come here?
Don't you have a girlfriend?
Why... Why do you ask?
Can't handle relationships?
I mean...
No, not that...
You're my most loyal customer.
Without fail...
you come here every day.
Why?
I love you.
Oh... Fuck...
Why did you do it? You knew, you knew all this time.
-What? -Get up.
Get up. Get up!
Get up. Sit down. I want to talk to you.
Why did you write me that letter?
Why did you say you miss me.
Why did you say sorry. Sorry for what?
I love you.
That is not an answer.
I love you.
That's not good enough.
Answer the fucking question.
-I love you. -What do you want.
Is this what you want?
Is this what you call love?
I really love you.
I waited for you for so many years.
I missed you. I missed you.
Shut up, shut up...
Answer my questions.
Is that why Emily killed herself?
Emily...
Is that why Emily killed herself?
What do you know about Emily?
I loved Emily.
You got her pregnant.
I loved her.
I used to watch her playing in the garden outside.
I used to talk for hours with her.
Your mother...
Your mother fell for me because of my doting on Emily...
You fucked a 15 year old, don't you see what's wrong with that?
I loved Emily.
Don't you know how sick that is?
You married my mother...
No, listen to me.
Stupid girl, I told her to go for an abortion...
but your mother refused to take her to a doctor.
Now tell me whose fault was it?
Your mother wanted to marry me because--
You fucked a 15 year old. That's the fucking problem.
Because I loved her.
Don't you see what's wrong with marrying my mother
and fucking her child?
I married your mother because I wanted to be with Emily.
I loved Emily. I wanted to be with her.
You sick pervert. You're so sick.
Do you hear yourself? You're so sick.
You deserve to die. You have to die.
Ruth, talk to me Ruth. Ruth are you ok?
I should kill you.
Open the door!
Ruth, talk to me Ruth.
I'd gotten over Emily.
I came to meet you here.
Why did you come here?
You wrote me a letter.
Why didn't your mother tell you everything. It's all her fault.
And, and then you. It was you who suggested the hand, hand job.
You could've said no. N-O. You could've said no. You could've said no.
But I love you. I really loved you.
Get out. Get out, get out.
Please get out of my life. Get out please, get out.
Can I sit here for five minutes, with you?
I wanted to forget Emily...
but it was you who brought her memory back for me.
Please, don't go. Please.
Please stay for two minutes.
Ruth... just don't go.
We can start again, Ruth.
Ruth... say something...
Ruth...
Ruth, what's going on?
Ruth, please come out. Ruth, please come out.
Ruth.
Ruth, please come out.
Ruth, open the door.
He is gone. You're safe now. Please come out.
What happened?
Ruth, just come out dear.
Ruth!
What is it?
Baby!
Baby, what's wrong? It's me. Open up.
Baby, I am sorry. I didn't mean to hit you the other day.
I was only trying to protect you. Those guys were taking you for a ride.
Open up!
What's wrong?
Say something. What happened?
That man was her father.
Where'd you get that?
