Even the sounds seem to be yawning

Hey man! What will happen of you??
01:04:42:10
Debbie
Nothing will ever happen of you Siddharth Mehra! You will definitely fail in this exam! You didn’t attend a single lecture through the entire year! People like you should face nothing but this!
01:04:55:05

01:05:28:01
Rishi
Shut up Laxmi! Stop giving lectures in dreams at least!
Sid, my situation is exactly like yours buddy! Couldn’t study the entire night!
I was with Neha dude!
She was studying and I was just watching her! All night long!
Anyways! Don’t worry! If we fail, we’ll be together! Since Nursery, I’ve been studying with you! Let it be for another year! Don’t worry buddy!
01:05:35:05
Professor
Everyone pens down!

01:06:46:17
Laxmi
Shut up Sid! We have to go right? After tomorrow, we may not get to meet these people ever again! This is it! College is over buddy!
01:06:52:15
Rishi
Didn’t get to know how these five years of college passed by! Life’s going to change! There’s so much to be done!
01:07:00:05
Laxmi
True buddy! Loads to do! Firstly these exams are over… now finally I can start – my diet!
01:07:07:15
Laxmi
Starting tomorrow! Promise! From tomorrow!
01:07:20:15
Sid
Why do you need to go for a diet? I’m there to marry you!
01:07:23:05
Laxmi
Oh please! No Sid!
01:07:26:05
Sid
Okay! Shall we go?
01:07:27:12
Laxmi
Yes!
01:07:28:02
Sid
Come! Come Rishi!
01:07:29:10
Sid
What’s this?
01:07:35:15
Rishi
Sid, give it back! Sid!
01:07:37:10
Sid
What’s this?
01:07:43:10
Laxmi
He has bought it… for Neha! I think he has got her name engraved on it!
01:07:45:05
Rishi
Sid, give it back!
01:07:50:05
Sid
Rishi you got to be kidding me!
01:07:52:05
Rishi
Sid I love her!
01:07:54:01
Sid
Dude you are pathetic!
01:07:55:15
Rishi
Sid, don’t be an idiot buddy!
01:07:56:20
Sid
Rish, you want to give an engagement ring to Neha?
Keep this ring back in your bag, without any fuss! Are you mad? Why are so serious?
01:07:59:17
Laxmi
You know Sid! One has got to be a little serious after college! Even you have to!
01:08:07:10
Sid
Right! That’s why I’ve made a very serious plan!
01:08:12:15
Laxmi & Rishi
What?
01:08:15:20
Sid
Let’s go and get drunk!
01:08:16:15
Laxmi & Rishi
Pch! Sid! Again!
Sid, please get serious buddy!
01:08:17:15
Sid
Buddy but I don’t want to be serious right now! I mean, we just finished our exams today! Who cares what’s in store for us? As long as we can have some…fun! Tonight!
Come on! Move!
01:08:20:00
Laxmi
Come!
01:08:37:15
Song (Male voice)
What do I do?
My heart is singing slowly…
What do I do?
Life is getting intoxicated slowly…
What do I do?
I’m getting lost slowly…
What do I do?
I’m getting affected by it…
What do I do?
Dormant wishes are getting active now…
What do I do?
Lost ways have life in them!
What do I do?
New dreams are right in front of me!
What do I do?
I’m getting affected by it…
These days, these nights
And these conversations…
Are all lost…
Hope these moments don’t pass
And I stay the way I am!
What do I do?
My heart is singing slowly…
What do I do?
Life is getting intoxicated slowly…
What do I do?
I’m getting lost slowly…
What do I do?
I’m getting affected by it…
01:08:38:02
Sid’s mother Mrs Mehra
That’s Rishi right?
01:12:27:15
Sid
Mom! At least knock the door!
01:12:29:10
Mrs Mehra
You are my son! Why should I knock?
01:12:32:10
Sid
What do you need Mom?
01:12:36:00
Mrs Mehra
I had come to meet you… it’s been long since I saw you!
01:12:39:00
Sid
Mom, please don’t talk in English… you can’t!
01:12:43:15
Mrs Mehra
How was the exam Siddie?
01:12:51:10
Sid
It was okay!
01:12:53:15
Mrs Mehra
How proud I feel! You have become a graduate now!
Learn to get organized now Siddie! What a mess!
Why do you keep ordering this pizza when such nice food is being cooked at home?
And Siddie! Stop playing video game all the time!
You have so many t-shirts! Now throw these away! Such short clothes don’t look good!
You are a man now! Not a boy anymore! Be matured!
Wear shirts! You will look really handsome!
01:12:54:20
Sid
Mom I always look handsome! Why are you bothering me?
Don’t touch my stuff! How many times do I say this to you?
01:13:40:00
Sid
Mom! Mom! Take! Fold this! Don’t feel bad on all this!
01:13:56:05
Mrs Mehra
Will you have dinner with us? I’m cooking! You will eat, right?
01:14:05:20
Sid
Yes Mom!
01:14:10:20
Sid
What a car man!
01:14:14:20
Sid’s father Mr Mehra
Sid, join office!
01:14:26:15
Sid
Whoa! From where did this office come in?
01:14:31:20
Mr Mehra
Your college is over now, right?
You don’t even have lectures to bunk?!
01:14:34:20
Sid
No!
01:14:40:10
Mr Mehra
So you are joining office!
01:14:41:00
Sid
But Dad! What will I do there?
01:14:45:05
Mr Mehra
Work! What else?
01:14:48:10
Sid
But Dad! Office!?
I mean our company manufactures bathroom furnishings! Flower showers, for Heaven’s sake! It’s… it’s just not my thing!
01:14:53:05
Mr Mehra
Just not your thing?!
Bathroom Fitting and Furnishing Association has given those showerheads a number one rank! Our showers have found their way from Birla to the common vegetable vendors. Do you know what it means? This means our company has raised the standards of the Indian bathing culture!
01:15:06:05
Sid
No!
01:15:24:03
Mr Mehra
No?
01:15:24:15
Sid
No!
01:15:25:07
Mr Mehra
No?
01:15:25:15
Sid
No way Dad! No way! I’m not coming to office!
01:15:26:03
Mr Mehra
Okay then Sid! By the way I was thinking that this car would really adorn our garage!
01:15:30:15
Sid
You aren’t serious!
Are you?
01:15:37:03
Mr Mehra
If you come to office regularly for six months, the car will be yours!
01:15:42:01
Sid
Six!! Six months!! That’s too much Dad! Fifteen days!
01:15:45:15
Mr Mehra
You think I’m mad? Ninety days!
01:15:50:03
Sid
Okay Dad! Twenty days!
01:15:54:04
Mr Mehra
Minimum sixty days!
01:15:55:10
Sid
Not a day beyond thirty!
01:15:57:04
Mr Mehra
Thirty days?
Okay done! Be at office from tomorrow!
01:15:59:17
Sid
Tomorrow?
Okay!
By the way Dad! What kind of deal is this?! A posh car against a month at office!
01:16:04:01
Mr Mehra
What deal can be bigger than a son coming to office?
01:16:18:04

01:17:01:04
Girl 1
I have decided! I’m not going to be a journalist! Can’t handle this tabloid culture!
01:17:06:14
Neha
Rishi! This party is so tacky! I want to go home!
01:17:12:10

Lemon tart?

Neha
I want to go home Rishi! I want to return! I’m going home!
01:17:22:01
Rishi
But Baby! We could have had lemon tart first and then……
01:17:25:04
Neha

01:18:01:20
Sid
Why?
01:18:08:00
Aisha
Because… because my photos don’t come out well!
01:18:09:10
Sid
I think you’ll look good!
01:18:15:01
Aisha
Some other time, okay?!
01:18:09:03
Sid
You are not from our college, right?
01:18:26:05
Aisha
No!
01:18:28:09
Sid
Thought as much!
You look a little elder than rest of us!
01:18:29:15
Aisha
Thanks! I hope just a little elder!
01:18:32:15
Sid
What are you doing in this party?
01:18:38:01
Aisha
Ah! I came with the girls of the hostel! You know Debbie? She is the organizer of the party!
01:18:40:20
Sid
Wait a minute! You are with Debbie?
01:18:47:15
Aisha
Yes!?
01:18:50:20
Sid
If she spots you with me, then……
01:18:52:05
Aisha
Okay! What’s wrong with you?
01:18:59:20
Sid
Don’t know buddy what’s the problem with this Debbie! Mad! Psycho!
Anyways you are lucky! My company is definitely better than hers!
01:19:01:10
Aisha
Is it?
01:19:08:10
Sid
Yes seriously!
01:19:09:15
Aisha
Okay! Let’s find out!
01:19:11:05
Aisha
So what do you do?
01:19:13:01
Sid
Me? I spend my Dad’s money!
01:19:14:20
Aisha
Nice!
And what will you do after college?
01:19:19:15
Sid
After college too I will spend my Dad’s money!
Sit!
So guys!
Ah! And you? What do you do?
01:19:24:01
Aisha
Aaah! I’m new to Bombay! I’ve come to earn my own money!
01:19:35:00
Sid
Oh! So you are not from Bombay?
01:19:39:05
Aisha
No!
01:19:41:10
Sid
How does it feel to be here?
01:19:43:05
Aisha
Well, as of now I haven’t seen anything… just today I arrived to the hostel directly from the railway station! And from there, I reached here!
01:19:45:00
Sid
Wait a minute! You have arrived today?
01:19:51:15
Aisha
Yes!
01:19:55:10
Sid
You’ve left behind the entire city to attend this boring farewell party of ours?
I mean why?
01:19:56:12
Aisha
It was quite late today! And where would I have gone in such wee hours?
01:20:02:01
Sid
Listen! In Bombay, it’s never late!
And you know! The city is altogether different by night-time!
I mean… less of traffic… less of humidity! Really, you should have been out now!
01:20:06:20
Aisha
So let’s go for a walk!
01:20:24:10
Sid
Walk?
01:20:27:15
Aisha
Yes!
01:20:28:10
Sid
When?
01:20:29:15
Aisha
Right now!
01:20:30:05
Sid
Okay!
01:20:33:03
Aisha
Okay!
01:20:35:00
Sid
Okay, let’s go…
Come…
01:20:35:20
Aisha
Just a second… I don’t want to give you any wrong idea!
01:20:39:00
Sid
Yes but the idea is yours!
01:20:44:20
Aisha
I know but I don’t even know you and I…
01:20:47:05
Sid
Even I don’t know you for that matter!
01:20:50:15
Aisha
Yes, but listen… it’s not that I-want-to-sleep-with-you-kind of thing!
01:20:51:10
Sid
Whoa!! When did I say I want to sleep with you?
01:20:56:20
Aisha
Sshh!
01:20:59:00
Sid
I didn’t even think about it!
01:21:00:20
Aisha
What nonsense! Of course you would have thought about it! You meet a girl in the party and within five minutes’ time, you go out for a walk with her… you would have thought!
01:21:02:20
Sid
Okay! May be I did think! But if this is a problem, I won’t think! It’s all good, buddy!
01:21:10:10
Aisha
Okay, so let’s go for the walk!
01:21:19:20
Sid
Come!
01:21:21:15
Sid
Hey one second! What’s your name? I’m Siddharth!
01:21:25:00
Aisha
I’m Aisha! Hi!
01:21:29:07
Aisha
Mmm… no one!
01:21:35:15
Sid
Really? You don’t have any friends?
01:21:37:20
Aisha
No!
01:21:41:00
Sid
Family?
01:21:42:00
Aisha
No!
01:21:43:02
Sid
You must be having a job!
01:21:44:01
Aisha
Not yet!
01:21:45:03
Sid
Have you run away from home?
01:21:47:15
Aisha
Hahaha!
01:21:48:20
Sid
Really Aisha! Why have you come to Bombay?
01:21:51:10
Aisha
To meet you!
01:21:53:20
Sid
Come on… seriously… please say!
01:21:55:10
Aisha
Seriously… to be independent!
I’m from Calcutta, Siddharth! All these years I’ve stayed there! I wanted to give a new direction to my life, so I came here to Bombay!
You know, to try something new!
01:21:57:24
Sid
Like a holiday?!
01:22:15:00
Aisha
No Siddharth! Not like a holiday!
Like… like life!
Have you ever felt like you could own a home, cook yourself, earn for yourself, and spend it too?
Everything… self-made! Independence, you know what I mean?
01:22:17:00
Sid
No!
01:22:38:10
Aisha
Hahaha! Forget it!
01:22:39:07
Sid
What will you do here?
01:22:42:05
Aisha
Work! What else?
You know this magazine?
01:22:43:20
Aisha
Mumbai Beat, of course! They’ve great photographs!
01:22:51:05
Sid
And great articles too! I’m visiting their office tomorrow… for an interview!
01:22:53:20
Aisha
Oh yes of course! That’s why that diary at the party!?
You are a writer Aisha?
01:23:00:00
Sid
Well, not professionally! But some day surely I will be one! I hope!
01:23:06:10
Aisha
So Siddharth, now you tell me something about Bombay!
01:23:14:20
Sid
Well! I’ll reply to whatever you ask!
01:23:18:15
Aisha
Okay! If there is one place in Bombay that you have to take me to, tonight, what would that be?
01:23:21:00
Music (female voice)
Hey ya hey ya
01:23:30:15
Aisha
The sea has always been very special to Bombay, right? I guess I can see why! In this city, where everything is subject to change, it is this sea that is always so very constant! It is always here… it’s beautiful!
01:23:37:15
Sid
Actually Aisha, you should see it in the monsoons! Man! Bombay monsoons are to die for! You know people complain about the traffic, about the floods… but I just love the monsoons!
Whenever it rains, the sea looks amazing then!
I can watch it for hours! It’s really awesome!
01:23:57:19
Aisha
Wow! I’m going to remember that!
01:24:23:05
Sid
Hey Aisha, can I ask you something?
01:24:30:15
Aisha
Is there anything left still? Go ahead!
01:24:32:10
Sid
You are all by yourself in Bombay! Aren’t you scared?
01:24:36:00
Aisha
Are you kidding Siddharth? You don’t know how scary it is! I’ve never stayed alone like this… but you know what? All will be well!
Coming to Bombay was my dream, Siddharth! And now that I am here, I can’t afford to be scared! You know there’s so much to do here that there’s no scope of fear!
01:24:40:15
Sid
I think… I think you are really tough Aisha! Really! I mean, I could never do all that you are doing!
So I guess, Cheers to your dream!
01:25:07:20
Aisha
Cheers!
01:25:22:10
Sid
My Dad has created an entire empire of manufacturing bathroom fitting. It’s quite an impressive story! But flower showers!!! I mean, isn’t that ridiculous?
01:25:30:05
Aisha
Well this is me! Single Women’s Hostel!
01:25:40:20
Sid
So when should I call you?
01:25:46:17
Aisha
Actually I haven’t yet bought a phone here! Siddharth, I don’t want to keep saying this but really I don’t want to give you any wrong idea!
01:25:49:12
Sid
Hey man! I get it! Even I have just one idea – that we be friends!
01:25:58:00
Aisha
Friendship is great! You know, give me your email ID.
01:26:05:05
Sid

01:26:09:15

01:28:18:10
Sid
Of course Dad! That’s why I’m here!
01:28:19:05
Mr Mehra
Okay then Sid! This is your last pizza in my cabin! In fact, post-today, you will never enter my office without my permission!
This is not our home, it’s my office! Rules rule here, is that clear?
01:28:21:20
Sid
Wake up
01:28:36:15
Mr Mehra
Your work station will be out here… along with the other staff members!
Because you are completely unaware about the Mehra Furnishing Company, you will have to read the company literature!
The background of the company, its locations, the turnover, plants… you know… everything!
Okay?
Good!
And… by next Tuesday, you will tell me know which department you will join!
Things might seem dull at the start of it, but if you concentrate, they will become interesting!
01:28:37:10
Song (Chorus)
Wake up
01:29:07:00
Mr Mehra
One more thing Sid! Here in office, you are not my spoilt brat! You are a trainee who has got a wonderful opportunity to understand the functioning of a huge company! You are very lucky!
01:29:08:05
Sid (voice-over)
Hello… my first Bombay friend! How are you? I was thinking about you today…
01:29:47:05
Aisha (voice-over)
I was thinking about you today so here I am…! Anyhow, the news is that I had been to the magazine office today… for my first interview! Sid, it was amazing! You know it’s all about the personality of few spaces! You make friends at the first meet! Have you ever felt so?
I had an appointment with the creative director of the magazine! It went off quite well actually! Amit is also the head photographer of the magazine! You had mentioned that you quite like the photos of this magazine?! If I get this job, you can come down to the office some day! My final interview is after few days. Keeping my fingers crossed!
This is it for now!
Aisha!
01:29:52:00
Sid (voice-over)
Hello! New girl in the city! Good to know that your day was interesting because mine was absolutely boring man! I mean… Dad’s office is not an office… it’s a jail! I am surrounded by people who reach office at a fixed time… leave office at a fixed time… to me, they seem to be wearing the same kind of clothes… I wonder they don’t get bored buddy!
You know you’re so lucky that you aren’t stuck up in a 100-pages booklet like me!
Later…
Sid
01:30:41:10
Aisha (voice-over)
Dear Sid,
I’m sorry to know you are not enjoying your job! But I feel with the passage of time, all will be well! Just keep at it!
Take me for an example! Remember the day when I had arrived in Bombay? I was so very scared! For quite a few days, I couldn’t even take a walk by myself!
And now? I’ve been all over the city Sid! Everywhere! I just leave the hostel in the morning and start walking… without deciding my destination, my plan of action… just aimlessly walking… and the funny thing is I’m not at all scared now Sid!
In fact, it seems to me these days that I’m totally independent! And then last night………
Aaaaaaaa Mamma… aaaa Mamma… aaa aaa…
Now I just can’t stay here!!! It’s time to look for a small flat for myself!
This is it for now!
Aisha!
01:31:12:15
Sid
Mom! Mom! Do you have in contact a good housing broker?
01:32:23:06
Sid (voice-over)
Nine-nine-two-zero-triple eight-triple zero… This is the number of Mr Prem Dubey! Mom says there are good housing options in the suburbs! And second… buy yourself a phone Ms Banerjee… so that I can invite you to rocking parties!!!
Okay! Bye!
01:32:29:05
Laxmi
Hey! Wake up!
01:32:53:10
Mr Mehra
Sid! Today’s Tuesday! Our meeting is scheduled in half an hour! See you in my cabin! Get up!
01:33:05:10
Aisha (voice-over)
Thank you so much for Mr Dubey’s number, Sid! You’re a savior! I’m going to see the flats today. Wish me luck!
01:33:29:10
Mr Mehra
Make sure that everything is delivered by tomorrow! Okay?
01:33:57:05
Employee 1
Yes Sir!
01:33:59:15
Mr Mehra
You can go now!
Come, Sid!
01:34:00:15
Employee 2
Sir, he’s left!
01:34:05:05
Aisha
Umm… Mrs D’Monte?
01:34:21:10
Mrs D’Monte
Yes?
01:34:23:10
Aisha
Actually I wanted to see the flat! Mr Dubey had told you……?
01:34:24:14
Mrs D’Monte
Oh God! Why do you bother me? Dubey didn’t tell you that the keys are with Sonia? 4th floor! Stupid idiot Dubey!
Go take the keys from Sonia!
God knows where these people come from!!
01:34:27:05
Sid
Hi!
01:34:39:22
Aisha
Hi! Sid? Sid! Oh my God! What are you doing here?
01:34:41:03
Sid
I? I have been stalking you!
01:34:47:00
Aisha
Oh shut up!
You are kidding, right?
01:34:50:20
Sid
Yes man!
I called up Dubey… got to know you are here! So came on to help you!
01:34:55:05
Aisha
Oh how sweet!
01:35:00:00
Sid
So, that Dubey has sent you in such a filthy place?!
01:35:02:10
Aisha
Yes!
01:35:06:05
Sid
Idiot! What kind of building is this Aisha? No lift… no watchman!!! And this… this ought to be in a museum now!
Aisha? Aisha!!
01:35:08:00
Aisha
Shit! Mrs D’Monte didn’t tell me which flat is Sonia’s!
God! Four floors again? I can’t get on!
Why don’t you go?
01:35:28:10
Sanju
Four-zero-one… Sonia Gill stays in four-zero-one!
You have to see the flat, right? Wait a minute!
01:35:44:10
Sonia
Hey Sanju! It’s you!
01:36:07:00
Sanju
Hi! They’ve come to see the flat!
01:36:10:00
Sonia
Aww! …come to see the flat!!!
01:36:12:20
Mrs Bapat
Sanju!!!
01:36:16:15
Sanju
Okay okay bye!

Sonia
MARATHI REPLY
01:36:22:10
Sonia
So you have come to see the flat?
01:36:30:03
Aisha
Actually, it’s me!
01:36:37:15
Sonia
Oh!
01:36:40:20
Aisha
Hi! I’m Aisha!
01:36:41:15
Sonia
Oh! Sonia!
A warning in advance! The flat is extremely dirty! Nobody’s been here since the last year! And Mrs D’Monte can’t climb up to here… so, no maintenance!
Anyway, take a look!
01:36:43:00
Aisha
Thanks!
01:36:58:15
Sid
Aisha! It’s not a house, it is just ruins! Come, let’s go from here! This place is a down!
01:37:24:00
Aisha
Sid, you’ll think I’m crazy!
01:37:30:10
Sid
Why?
01:37:33:00
Aisha
Because I have liked this flat!
01:37:34:00
Sid
What? That’s impossible!
01:37:36:02
Aisha
This is where I’m going to stay!
01:37:37:10
Sid
But Aisha! This flat is so dirty!
01:37:42:20
Aisha
So we’ll clean it up!
01:37:45:10
Sid
You know, my Chhotu’s room is far better than this… I swear!
01:37:47:15
Aisha
Good for Chhotu! I’m taking this flat!
01:37:50:20
Sid
Aisha, this is only the first flat! We can always look at other options!
01:37:53:20
Aisha
Of course we can but we won’t… because I have decided!
01:37:55:15
Sid
You know what? You are right! You are crazy!
Hey! Where are you going now?
01:38:01:00
Aisha
To take a look of the terrace of my building!
01:38:08:05
Sid
My building? Aisha, wait!
01:38:10:10
Aisha
What?
01:38:13:00
Sid
Are you really sure you want to stay here? I mean, if it’s a financial problem, I can help you know! I will ask Dad!
01:38:14:15
Aisha
Aww Sid! That’s really sweet! But no thanks, okay?
01:38:22:15
Sid
Aisha!
Gosh! You are so stubborn, you know! Listen, I don’t think this area is safe! Seriously! Look, I will do an exhaustive research and send you e-mails…
Aisha, please listen to me! I’m a Bombayite and you are from Calcutta!
Whoa!
01:38:29:15
Aisha
What a city!
You want to help me, right? Then help me in making this house a home!
Yes?
Thanks!!!
01:39:02:10

Mrs Juneja
Happy happy anniversary to you Sarita!
01:42:55:22
Mrs Mehra
Thank you so much!
01:42:58:10
Mrs Juneja
You look so gorgeous!
01:43:01:06
Mrs Mehra
It’s my wedding saree…
01:43:03:00
Mrs Juneja
Ohh!!
01:43:04:10
Sid
Sorry! I’m late!
01:43:05:04
Mrs Juneja
Hello Sid! Oh! Look at you! How handsome! Sarita, let him be a hero!
Bye!
01:43:06:01
Mrs Mehra
You are the most handsome my son! Even I feel that you could become a hero! Anyways, you don’t do anything!
01:43:17:12
Sid
Mom! Stop it now!
01:43:27:15
Mr Lathia
Congratulations on the wedding anniversary Madam Mehra!
01:43:30:00
Mrs Mehra
Thank you!
01:43:32:00
Mr Lathia
This is my Mrs… and my daughter Tanya!
Ram, Tanya returned from abroad just six months ago… she was in Farsun University, studying a degree in design… she is brilliant… I offered her to join our company, but she is still thinking! I tell you, this generation wants to be independent! Ami I right, Siddharth?
Siddharth!
01:43:32:20
Sid
Yes?
01:44:01:10
Mr Lathia
So, what are your future plans?
01:44:02:07
Sid
Excuse me!
01:44:08:20
Sid
Hello! Aisha, what’s up? When did you buy a phone?
01:44:10:20
Mr Lathia
Busy man! So, Mehra, your son is grown up now! When is he taking over your business?
01:44:16:00
Mr Mehra
Don’t know… he also is still thinking!
01:44:26:05
Aisha
Hi!
01:44:34:20
Sid
Hey! By the way, thank you so much Aisha! You save me from every boring party!
Hey and by the way, the flat is really looking awesome! You were right!
01:44:35:10
Sid
So, Aisha… quarter-to-twelve at midnight… you and I… at your apartment… alone… what’s the matter?
01:44:49:00
Aisha
You know Sid! It may seem awkward to you but I didn’t want to stay alone tonight!
You see, tomorrow, precisely in ten minutes, it’s my birthday! And I have never been alone on my birthday!
01:45:00:15
Sid
Hey, why didn’t you tell me before? We could’ve gone out and partied!
01:45:18:05
Aisha
Why? Even this is partying! You, me and two cups of tea!
01:45:21:20
Sid
Yes but something’s amiss!
01:45:29:00
Aisha
Why?
01:45:32:10
Sid
Ten minutes remaining, right?
01:45:34:00
Aisha
Yes!
01:45:35:00
Sid
Okay done!
01:45:36:00
Aisha
Sid, it’s so stupid! What are you up to?
01:45:46:02
Sid
Aisha, don’t turn now okay?
01:45:49:00
Aisha
Listen! Don’t dirty my kitchen, okay?
01:45:53:10
Sid
No no… it’s all clear!
Just give me ten seconds!
01:45:55:17
Sid
Aisha!
01:46:07:10
Sid
Happy birthday Aisha!
01:46:16:00
Aisha
Thank you Sid!
01:46:55:10
Sid
Why?
01:46:58:00
Aisha
You’ve done so much for me here! Do let me know if I could do anything for you!
01:46:59:20
Sid
Anything?
01:47:06:00
Aisha
You know… anything! You are a good friend Sid!
01:47:08:02
Sid
Aisha, can I ask you something?
01:47:17:17
Aisha
Go ahead!
01:47:20:00
Sid
You and I… we are friends now… which is great! Just think if we could be something else as well!
You know, a little more than friends!
So why do you think this didn’t happen?
01:47:22:10
Aisha
Sid! Because it didn’t happen! Friendship is okay Sid! And I didn’t think that I could fall in love with someone like you! That’s why!
01:47:39:20
Sid
Why? I mean I’m kind of perfect!
No seriously Aisha… Where do I lack?
01:47:52:05
Aisha
It’s not that you are imperfect! Sid, I don’t want to talk about this! You’ll feel bad!
01:48:02:10
Sid
Hey why should I feel bad? I don’t love you… it’s okay, we can talk about this!
01:48:09:10
Aisha
Okay! I think you are still a kid Sid! Somewhat immature! You know? Childish! Just that you are not the one I’m looking for…
01:48:15:05
Sid
Okay! This is going to be fun! So who are you looking for, Aisha?
01:48:31:13
Aisha
I guess someone who is independent, for starters! Someone with a definite career, a goal in life… whose ideas match mine… in short, a man, not a boy!
01:48:37:15
Sid
Basically, my exact opposite!
01:48:55:05
Aisha
Basically! Your profile is not for me Sid!
01:48:56:20
Sid
Even I was thinking I might be too young for you… some serious type will suit you best… someone of your age!
01:49:08:01
Aisha
I knew you felt bad!
By the way, what do you think my age is?
01:49:15:01
Sid
Thirty!
01:49:19:05
Aisha
Seriously?
01:49:20:15
Sid
Yes!
01:49:22:05
Aisha
Look I’m twenty-seven and if you pull my legs any more now, I’ll throw you down this tank!
01:49:22:20
Sid
Relax now… I was kidding! Come now… make a birthday wish!
01:49:25:20
Aisha
What birthday wish!!! Just hope to get the job!
01:49:32:00
Office receptionist - 2
You’re next!
01:49:39:15
Aisha
Ahem!
01:50:20:00
Kabir
Vidhi Naik?
01:50:29:10
Aisha
Aisha Banerjee!
01:50:30:05
Kabir
Aisha Banerjee! Aisha Banerjee! Okay!
You are through with the first round of interview! Why a gap of two weeks for the second round?
01:50:31:20
Aisha
Sir, I guess you were busy! That’s why!
01:50:40:00
Kabir
O that’s great! I was busy!
But you know, since you have applied for the post of my assistant, you might as well know that I always do keep busy!
You know my last assistant Ednar was brilliant… absolutely brilliant! And absolutely brilliantly got pregnant! My bad luck, I suppose! And good luck for you!
So, Aisha Banerjee! Your application letter is quite interesting but your CV is a little weak! You’ve worked just for two months in Calcutta State Library!
01:50:42:20
Aisha
But I was an editor as well, for two years… for my college newspaper!
01:51:14:10
Kabir
But Ms Banerjee, I’m talking about the real practical experience… serious work… the kind that we do here…
I’m a workaholic Ms Banerjee! Working with me is not going to be an easy job! I’m not sure you can do it!
01:51:17:10
Aisha
Of course, I can! I’ve come all the way from Calcutta to become a writer! I can learn a lot from you!
01:51:27:00
Kabir
Writer?
If you want to be a writer, why did you apply for this post? This is a post for my assistant… just clerical work… there won’t be ay creativity in cleaning my desk… and anyways, our magazine is about Bombay and you don’t belong to the city!
01:51:32:22
Aisha
But even you were from Bangalore when you joined this magazine! And in a span of ten years, you are its editor!
I know everything about you…
Actually, I have thought over and over again when applying for this job! In fact, I had imagined this interview thousand times… except the facts that I would get so nervous and you would happen to be so handsome!
You know, I will clean this desk very creatively! Anyways, it badly needs a cleaning! So……
01:51:48:00
Aisha
Sid, Sid… I’ve got it!!! Mumbai Beat magazine’s new Editor’s Assistant is Aisha Banerjee! Finally, I got the job!
01:52:28:20
Sid
Aisha, that’s great! Super! Super!
Well, I’ll call you in some time… I’m a little tied up…
Okay! Bye then!
01:52:36:05
Laxmi
What buddy? Spell ‘stressed’ backwards and you get ‘desserts’, right? And I’m stressed! And where were you guys? You’re never on time!
01:52:57:20
Neha
Baby, Baby, Baby, I’ve passed… I’ve passed… I’ve passed… I’m so excited!!! I got forty-plus in every subject, where I had expected thirty-five! I’m so happy I passed!
01:53:04:07
Laxmi
Neha… That’s like third class buddy!!
01:53:12:00
Neha
I passed, that’s all! Okay now. Go, go! Hurry up guys!
01:53:14:10
Laxmi
Excuse me guys!
01:53:19:10
Sid
Excuse me!
01:53:21:14
Laxmi
Guys, as per plan, one-by-one, okay?
01:53:28:05
Rishi
Yes! You go first.
01:53:31:00
Laxmi
Sure?
01:53:31:20
Rishi
Here… here…
01:53:36:15
Rishi
Genius Laxmi!! You are amongst the class toppers!
01:53:46:07
Laxmi
I don’t know buddy! Got pulled down by Economics…
01:53:49:00
Rishi
Where is mine?
01:53:54:15
Laxmi
There… there…
01:53:59:10
Rishi
Hope I clear this exam… I’ll walk up to the Siddhivinayak temple for nine Tuesdays…
01:54:00:12
Sid
Hey Rishi! You got cleared buddy! You passed!
01:54:05:22
Rishi
I passed Sid?
01:54:13:00
Laxmi
Congrats Rishi!
01:54:14:05
Rishi
I passed!
01:54:15:20
Laxmi
Sid, let’s check for your number!
01:54:18:05
Sid
Here it is!
01:54:21:07
Rishi
You must’ve checked on the wrong number! Let’s check again! Sid, take out the hall ticket! Sid! Sid!
01:54:37:10
Neha
Rishi, where’ve you been? Baby, you passed, you passed, you passed! I was looking for you! Aren’t you proud of yourself?
01:54:57:09
Rishi
I know Baby, but……
Sid, Sid, Sid… Sid… Sid… don’t worry dude! All will be well!
Sid, listen! This does happen sometimes!
Dude, it’s a matter of just one year! Next year, you will pass… it’s not a big deal buddy!
01:55:01:10
Sid
Damn you Rishi! It’s very easy for you to say that’s it’s not a big deal… because you have passed… at least don’t give me a lecture now!
01:55:27:20
Rishi
Okay Sid, but relax buddy!
01:55:36:00
Sid
You’re asking me to relax? We did everything together… and now that you have passed… I am… I’m all by myself…
01:55:38:09
Rishi
Sid, but it’s not my fault buddy!
01:55:49:20
Sid
Of course, it is! It’s your fault! I don’t know how but yes!
Even you know you shouldn’t have passed… who knows if I hadn’t wasted my time with you, even I would have passed!
01:55:53:05
Rishi
So you Sid!
01:56:03:00
Sid
Yes, right! So you too, Rishi!
01:56:04:10
Laxmi
Guys please! Stop fighting! Look, we can send papers for revaluation!
01:56:06:05
Sid
Laxmi, please leave me alone!
01:56:08:10
Mrs Mehra
Siddie, I’m cooking tonight! You’ll be at home, right?
What happened, Siddie? You are upset? Need money?
What happened?
01:56:24:22
Sid
Mom, my results are out!
01:56:44:10
Mrs Mehra
Sid, you didn’t pass?
How could you let it happen, Siddharth? This is all because of your friends! You kept hanging out with them and this is the result! You were a topper in school… what happened to you in college?
We are giving you all that you need, right? Where are we lacking? Why this?
Say something Siddharth! Tell me what was my mistake that you failed like this?
01:56:37:05
Sid
Shut up Mom! Stop giving me these lectures! I know what has happened and you don’t need to remind me over and over again! I will pass the next time… why are you creating so much of drama? Anyways, how does it matter to you whether I pass or fail? You personally have never been to school and……
01:57:32:!0
Mr Mehra
Say sorry Sid… I said, apologize Siddharth!
01:57:56:10
Sid
Dad please… you don’t interfere in this!
01:58:01:15
Mr Mehra
I shouldn’t interfere? And keep ignoring your ill-manners and rude ways? How dare you speak to your mother like that? For the past twenty years, she has spent all her life running after you! She hadn’t been to school, and hence hoped you could study well! So that you get all that I didn’t get, she didn’t…
01:58:08:00
Sid
Dad, your lecture!
01:58:28:10
Mr Mehra
Sid, don’t you dare walk out… you will stop there and listen to what I say… at your age, my father was dead… I was married and had the responsibility of the entire family… we stayed in a small colony of Jogeshwari… I have toiled day and night so that I could give you all this… your lifestyle, your arrogance…
01:58:32:15
Sid
So what am I supposed to do? Should I fall on your feet and be thankful?
01:58:57:05
Mr Mehra
You are damn right! You can do that at least!
01:58:59:11
Sid
Thank you so much Dad! I’ve said! Now can I leave?
01:59:03:05
Mr Mehra
I’m not done as yet! You can’t escape out of every situation! This attitude of yours is the reason behind your failure! You couldn’t stay in office for more than a week! You ran away stealthily!
01:59:05:22
Sid
O God! Not again! Your office… your company! Can’t you see I don’t care about your stupid company?
01:59:16:10
Mr Mehra
What do you care about, Siddharth? What do you care about? You don’t care for yourself, your family members, your future! I feel angered to see you waste your life! Can’t you see for yourself that this day you have failed in your exam, some time you might as well fail in your life?
01:59:22:15
Sid
I can’t see… I don’t want to… you think I don’t care?
01:59:37:10
Mr Mehra
You will start caring the day I stop funding you!
01:59:42:15
Sid
So go ahead! I don’t need your bloody money!
01:59:46:15
Mr Mehra
Okay Siddharth, let me clarify one thing! This is not your home, it’s mine… and to be able to stay here, you have to go by my rules… okay?
01:59:50:05
Sid
In that case, I don’t want to stay here! I’m leaving!
02:00:08:00
Song (male voice)
There’s nobody to call my own
That small dream is turned to ashes
Why has the day again set?
Why is the moment so lonely?
Move from here…
02:00:42:00
Aisha
Sid! What are you doing here?
02:01:25:10
Sid
Can I stay here?
02:01:31:05
Aisha
What? Sid! Come inside…
What happened, Sid?
02:01:33:00
Sid
Thank you Aisha!
02:02:56:10
Aisha
Good night Sid!
02:02:59:15
Sid
Chhotu! Chhotu! Chhotu, draw the curtains boy!
Chhotu, boy!
02:03:15:05
Amit
When Kabir gets those…
02:04:31:20
Aisha
I’m so sorry!
02:04:33:10
Amit
Where was I? Yes, whenever Kabir gets the articles by the writers……
02:04:36:22
Sid
Aisha, where have you been? Why didn’t you take my call? Were you so busy? Tried and tried and tried…
02:04:44:19
Sid
You know I got so bored today! Why don’t you get an AC for your flat? It’s so hot in here!!
02:05:02:05
Sid
Aisha, you are not even listening?!
02:05:11:10
Aisha
Sid, I’ve been working all day long! I’m tired now!
02:05:13:10
Sid
Okay! Okay! Come! Let’s go for dinner… will talk there! Come!
02:05:18:10
Aisha
No Sid! I don’t want to go anywhere! I’ve had some stuff at office… I’ll just clean this up and go off to sleep…
02:05:21:22
Sid
You had your dinner?
02:05:28:12
Aisha
Yes!
02:05:29:15
Sid
Without me?
02:05:31:10
Aisha
Yes! So? Are you my husband? Cook something for yourself and eat… I’m going to sleep…
02:05:33:00
Aisha
You can’t cook, right?
Nothing at all? What did you have for lunch?
02:05:42:00
Aisha
Shits! You’ve been hungry all day long? Why didn’t you order something from outside?
02:05:53:05
Sid
Oh I just didn’t feel like…
02:05:57:10
Aisha
You’re hungry, right?
02:06:01:15
Sid
Yes!
02:06:04:15
Aisha
You’re so silly Sid! Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I’ll cook something for you right away!
02:06:06:02
Song (female voice)
Strange a tale this is…
Where it began… and where ended…
Neither could he understand………
02:06:18:20
Kabir
Aisha! My coffee!
02:06:38:00
Aisha
Yes! Just a second!
02:06:39:10
Aisha
Kabir, one second! Kabir, I’ve written an article! Need your feedback! If you have time……
02:06:44:05
Kabir
Aisha! Can I please get my coffee?
02:06:49:00
Waiter
Excuse me Sir!
02:07:08:00
Debbie
Oho! Don’t worry! My treat… Wait, wait… I will pay!
02:07:14:05
Waiter
Sir, your card is not being accepted!
02:07:24:07
Sid
Are you sure?
02:07:29:08
Waiter
Yes Sir!
Will you pay cash?
02:07:30:10
Sid
Yes!
02:07:36:20
Sid
The thing is……
02:07:44:10
Debbie
That’s okay! I will pay.
02:07:44:15
Sid
Hey Debbie! That’s really sweet buddy! Thank you so much! I will repay you!
02:07:47:20
Debbie
Siddharth, it’s okay! Keep this ‘thank you’ thing with yourself! By the way, it doesn’t suit you much!
Anyway, I was giving a treat to my friends. I got a job today!
02:07:52:20
Sid
Not exactly friends! Are we?
02:08:05:10
Debbie
No, not exactly!
I’m sorry that you failed! Just wanted to say this!
02:08:09:20
Sid
Hey Debbie! Why do you hate me so much?
02:08:20:10
Debbie
You know, three years back, I had come to Bombay to join college! My percentage was high but I got late in applying… that year I wasn’t admitted here! You know why? Because you were allotted my seat! With your Dad’s recommendation, you were given the last seat of this batch!
Just think of it Siddharth! I’m much more hard-working than you, more sincere, more deserving… but life is easier for you!
Bye Sid!
02:08:28:00
Laxmi
But Sid! You have to return home some time, right?
02:09:32:00
Sid
He has cancelled my credit card Laxmi! No way! I’m not going back at all!
02:09:34:10
Laxmi
But Sid, why don’t you understand? He must have been really angry!
02:09:38:10
Sid
Laxmi you don’t understand what I am going through! You are among the college toppers… you don’t know what is it like to fail? So just leave me alone!
02:09:41:05
Laxmi
Oh shut up Sid! I don’t understand, eh, I don’t understand? Just, just look at me! I’ve got a jumbo-sized body! Have you ever thought how I feel? Every morning I go for a diet and by the end of the day, I fail!!
Sid, you are not the only one surrounded by problems, alright? So just stop being such a jerk!
02:09:49:12
Laxmi
Change your expression! You’re looking crazy!
02:10:17:00
Sid
Okay! Fine! I know I’m being a jerk! But nothing’s alright!
02:10:24:10
Laxmi
I know! That’s why I’ve got you this… College application form!
And some of your stuff!
I knew you would not return home, but there’s no harm in trying, right?
02:10:31:05
Sid
Hey Laxmi! I’m sorry I didn’t know you have such problems with your weight!
02:10:56:10
Laxmi
It’s okay Sid!
02:11:05:05
Sid
You know it, you are not a jumbo! May be a buffalo!
02:11:08:10
Laxmi
What??
Mammaa!
02:11:19:20
Song (male voice)
You are annoyed… but will pacify in a moment!
You are a kid at heart!
O life! You are just like me!
Matured by looks, but raw!
Let’s get swinging…
Why are you sitting?
Come, hold my finger…
Wherever I go,
Just join me!
Wherever you go,
I’ll join you!
02:12:08:15
Sid
Hey Sonia!
02:13:09:20
Sonia
Yes Sid?
02:13:12:15
Sid
Do you know how to cook eggs?
02:13:14:15
Kabir
Follow up…
02:13:26:10
Aisha
Yes! Is that all?
02:13:28:17
Kabir
Please remove this stuff from here!
02:13:30:05
Kabir
Aisha! Leave!
02:13:36:19
Song (male voice)
Wherever I go,
Just join me!
Wherever you go,
I’ll join you!
02:13:39:10
Sid
Hi!
02:14:03:05
Aisha
Hi!
02:14:03:15
Sid
You’re not going to believe this!
Why are so late today Aisha? I was waiting for you since so long!
I cooked egg for you! Sonia taught me… you were right! She is so cool!
02:14:04:15
Aisha
Shut up Sid!
Just look at this place! You’ve learnt to cook egg?! Wow! Congratulations! And who will clean those dishes? Your help? You forgot there’s no Chhotu out here!
This is my home Sid… and you’ve turned it into a store room!
02:14:19:08
Sid
I cooked for you!
02:14:40:00
Song (chorus)
Wake up… wake up… wake up… wake up…
Wake up… wake up… wake up… wake up…
Wake up… wake up… wake up… wake up…
02:16:42:12
Aisha
Sid, I think you should go back home! Your Dad has such a successful company and you’ve given up everything just to cook eggs at this flat of mine? What are you doing Sid?
02:17:33:15
Sid
You know, when you look at me, you visualize my ‘successful Dad’… but I’m not like him Aisha!
I went to office for a week but that place… just wasn’t me!
But when I think of it, without my Dad, I’m just nobody! I mean, what is my individual identity? I don’t know… that’s why last night I decided that I want to do a job!
It’s true that I don’t know anything! Don’t know who’ll hire me… but now I want to work, that’s it!
Aisha, don’t throw me out of the house like this! Give me one more chance, please! Please!
02:17:47:10
Aisha
Okay Sid!
02:18:56:00
Sid
Aisha, where were you last night?
02:19:09:01
Aisha
At Sonia’s…
02:19:12:10
Sid
What?
Meaning, right in front?
02:19:14:15
Aisha
Sid, I’ve got an idea… for your job!
02:19:23:10
Amit
Have you done some course in photography?
02:19:33:05
Sid
No!
02:19:36:20
Amit
Any work experience in photography?
02:19:37:15
Sid
No Sir!
02:19:41:00
Amit
Do you have any work experience?
02:19:42:00
Aisha
Amit, Sid is into photography since many years. Even if you keep him as an intern, he’ll learn loads from you!
I really think this is something he’ll be good at!
02:19:46:05
Amit
Okay Siddharth! We’ll try you out for few days! You can work as an intern here!
02:19:58:00
Sid
Thanks so much!
02:20:06:10
Amit
Be here tomorrow morning… at ten a.m.!
02:20:07:10
Sid
But…it’s Sunday tomorrow?! I mean, okay… it’s good…
02:20:11:06
Sid
I would be working at Mumbai Beat!
Or doodling neat!
Hey that rhymed!!
02:20:18:11
Aisha
Hahaha!
02:20:23:00
Sid
What heat!
02:20:24:19
Aisha
We are staying together… will now be working together… should we get married as well?
02:20:26:00
Sid
Yes yes come on…
02:20:30:05
Aisha
Hahaha!
02:20:31:04
Sid
Come!
02:20:32:08
Aisha
Idiot! You go home!
02:20:32:23
Sid
Bye!
02:20:35:15
Aisha
Bye!
02:20:36:16
Aisha
Hey? Sid!!!
02:20:39:04
Sid
We’ll catch up at home Darling!
02:20:43:22
Sid
That’s it… stop here…
02:20:52:08
Sid
Hey boss! Why are we here? I had told you to……
Sorry boss! My mistake! Please take a turn… we’ll go to Chapel Road!
02:21:01:11
Sid
One second… one second… please, wait here for some time… I’ll be back soon!
02:21:13:00
Amit
Good morning! Welcome to Mumbai Beat!
02:22:02:17
Employees
Thank you so much!
02:22:04:00
Amit
The theme for our next issue is – ‘markets of Mumbai’! Now, I’m sure you guys know all these markets! Well, most of them! And, the way we work is – on every three articles, two interns will assist, except for the cover story. So let’s give you all some work!
02:22:08:00
Tanya
You are Ram Mehra’s son, right?
Remember, we met at your parents’ anniversary party?
02:22:25:05
Sid
Oh yes… Hi!
02:22:33:03
Sid
So, obviously you didn’t join your Dad’s company?!
02:22:41:00
Amit
Tanya Lathia – design intern…
02:22:45:10
Tanya
That’s me!
02:22:47:20
Amit
And Siddharth Mehra – you both will assist me in the photo spread of the cover story! Alright?
And you are?
02:22:48:22
Rashi
Rashi
02:22:55:00
Amit
Rashi! You are also a design intern, right? What do you want to design?
02:22:55:23
Aisha
Sid? Coming!
Yes?
02:23:02:00
Mrs Mehra
Aisha?
02:23:08:08
Aisha
Yes!
02:23:09:14
Mrs Mehra
I’m Siddharth’s mother!
02:23:10:18
Aisha
Oh! Hello! Hello Aunty!
02:23:14:08
Mrs Mehra
Can I come inside?
02:23:18:05
Aisha
Yes of course! Please come in!
02:23:19:20
Aisha
Actually Sid is away!
02:23:39:20
Mrs Mehra
I know! Actually I had asked Chhotu to let me know when he leaves.
Wanted to see where Siddharth stays…
Now that Siddharth too stays here, I’ve got some cash!
02:23:42:10
Aisha
No Aunty, please! I can’t take cash! Thank you!
02:24:00:00
Mrs Mehra
I’ve brought some mangoes as well. They are Siddharth’s favorite! Please keep them at least!
02:24:07:01
Aisha
Okay!
02:24:14:02
Mrs Mehra
Chhotu…keep them there!
Just don’t tell him that I got these… he might feel bad!
Okay Aisha! I’ll take your leave!
02:24:15:15
Aisha
Okay Aunty!
Aunty! I just wanted to say… I mean, hope you won’t mind… actually, there’s nothing as such between Sid and me… you know, we are just friends…
02:24:28:20
Song (male voice)
These days life’s been telling me,
Just listen to me and you can tread on the path of your dreams!
Embrace all the smells and all the light!
Now, wherever you go…
All days and nights will be anew!
Wishes are youthful,
Feelings are all new!
There are new paths for you…
So why should you be dependent now?
The earth is new; the sky is new – for you…
Create your new story in the airs!
The earth is new; the sky is new – for you…
Create your new story in the airs!
When life knocked,
All the windows of the heart opened up… opened up…
All the silences
Stuck on the lips melted away… melted away…
So many moments have put me in deep thought!
So many little things have touched me deep within!
Many likings have lit up in the heart!
Moments of relief speak up to me…
Fill up all identities and all smiles in your sight now!
The earth is new; the sky is new – for you…
Create your new story in the airs!
The earth is new; the sky is new – for you…
Create your new story in the airs!
02:25:20:15
Aisha
Thank God it’s an off tomorrow! I really need a break! Let’s go out for dinner tonight!
02:28:57:00
Sid
I can’t come tonight! I have already my plans!
02:29:02:15
Aisha
Really? What plans?
02:29:06:11
Sid
You know Tanya? I’m going out with her!
02:29:08:15
Aisha
Tanya – design intern… she’s pretty, eh!
02:29:12:00
Sid
Yes, she’s pretty! And she’s fun too! Going clubbing! Why don’t you join us… it’ll be fun!
02:29:17:22
Aisha
No no no no… you go! I don’t want to go clubbing!
02:29:24:18
Sid
Aisha, but you’ll get bored at home! Okay, even I’ll cancel…
02:29:30:00
Aisha
No, don’t be silly! You go! Don’t worry about me! I have loads to do! Really!!!
02:29:33:17
Aisha
Up for a drink? Don’t have anything to do… so!!!
02:29:43:10
Sonia
I’m always up for a drink darling! Come in!
02:29:47:03
Saira

Sid
Back in action!
02:30:04:14
Vikram
You’ve just totally disappeared!
02:30:05:13
Sid
No! I’ve started working!
02:30:06:11
Laxmi
Sid! What are you doing here?
02:30:07:02
Saira
Hey! He seems to know everybody here!
Anyway, everyone – Rishi… Rishi!

Hi Sid!
You want another drink?
02:30:23:02

02:30:26:01
Sonia
What rubbish are you watching?
02:30:35:20
Aisha
Hey!
02:30:37:04
Sonia
Come, let’s gossip! How’s your sex life?
02:30:38:03
Aisha
What?
02:30:42:08
Sonia
Why are you being such a virgin with me?
O yes, what about your boss? What’s up between you? You still find him sexy? Come on… say!
02:30:43:15

He is sexy! And seems quite a my-type!
02:30:53:10

02:30:59:09
Sonia

Sonia
You know him, right? Do something with him at least!
02:31:06:05
Aisha
Please Sonia! We are friends! Anyways, he is a kid!
02:31:09:10
Sonia

02:31:13:20
Aisha
Sid? And sexy?
02:31:21:20
Sonia

Why do you ask? Like you care! He’s gone!
02:31:55:09
Sid
Of course! At Neha’s!
02:32:00:10
Laxmi
No Sid! Why will he be there?
Let it go!
02:32:02:09
Sid
What?
02:32:07:02
Laxmi
Nothing!
02:32:07:22
Sid
No say it!
02:32:08:23
Laxmi
Neha and Rishi have had a break-up!
Don’t know why it happened and when… and that stupid Rishi isn’t even mentioning it!
Poor thing! He is very upset! You know Rishi!
02:32:11:09
Sid
Hey Rish! Why didn’t you call?
Rishi! What happened with Neha?
What happened buddy?
02:32:35:22
Sid
You got to be kidding me! She rejected?
02:33:02:15
Rishi
Called me a nut buddy! Dumped me also!!
02:33:08:00
Rishi
I’m bloody idiot!
02:33:25:12
Sid
You’re a bloody idiot!
02:33:26:14
Rishi
You had warned me!
02:33:28:10
Sid
I had warned you!
02:33:30:00
Rishi
Then you should have been there, to remind me!
02:33:31:15
Sid
Yes man! I should have been there!
Sorry buddy!
02:33:41:10

Morning Sid!
02:34:21:15
Sid
Aisha, why are we sitting with the doors ajar?
02:34:29:15
Aisha
Cross-ventilation Sid! There’s no electricity at home! And it’s terribly hot!
02:34:34:00
Sid
Just few more days of this heat! And then the monsoons! You just don’t know how much you’re going to enjoy!
02:34:40:05

Sid
Welcome Sir!
02:36:13:00
Mrs Bapat
Hey wait! Take one photo of both of us, Siddharth!
02:36:16:11
Sid
Sure!
02:36:17:20
Mrs Bapat
Yes!
02:36:20:00
Mrs Bapat
Put up a smile!
What happened?
Why do you bother me so much? Such nice photos are being clicked! Right? Why do you do this, son? Why?
Why do you bother me?
02:36:26:01
Sid
Hi Mom! I thought Dad would have been away for his evening walk… I’ll leave before he returns! And I’m not returning Mom, so we’ll not talk about it! Okay?
Just wanted to meet you!
02:37:19:10
Sid
I miss you Mom!
02:37:56:10
Mrs Mehra
Siddie! You are looking so handsome in a shirt!
02:38:01:15
Sid
Mom!
I always look handsome!
02:38:07:05
Mrs Mehra
So do you!
02:38:16:00
Mrs Mehra
Siddie… this is when you were four years old… it was your first day of school!
02:38:26:15
Si d
School Mom! Not iskool! School!
02:38:32:19
Mrs Mehra
Yes that’s what… iskool!
02:38:36:00
Sid
Don’t know when you’ll stop speaking in English!
02:38:38:15
Mrs Mehra
Why should I stop? If I speak in English like your friends do, who knows even we may become friends!!!
02:38:41:20
Mrs Mehra
Look at this photo, Siddie! You were so chubby!
02:38:55:15
Sid
Mom! You look stunning here! Such awesome photos these are! Who took them?
02:39:11:00
Mrs Mehra
Your father did… who else?
02:39:18:05
Sid
Really? When did he free himself from work?
02:39:21:08
Mrs Mehra
Always – for taking your photographs! Just as he returned from work, you both used to get started! He clicked, and you posed!
I felt you would become an actor! Really Siddie! Your father has captured your entire childhood in this album!
02:39:24:02
Sid
Mom, I’ll leave!
02:39:54:00
Mrs Mehra
By the way, Siddie! You get to eat well, right?
02:40:04:05
Sid
Yes mom, we are fine… managing!!! And if you keep sending mangoes, it’s kind of obvious!
02:40:09:05
Sid
Amit, I wish this issue carries a photograph by me! I know I’m just an intern! I want to give some real contribution!
02:40:44:10
Kabir
‘New girl in the City’! Nice title!
02:41:01:10
Aisha
Did you read my articles? Did you read all?
02:41:07:20
Kabir
Aisha, I have decided that you will write a column in the current issue! If accepted well, we’ll make it a regular column!
02:41:10:10
Aisha
Ahh! Thank you!
02:41:18:00
Kabir
Your writing is quite fresh!
02:41:18:22

02:41:27:00
Aisha
Yes!
02:41:30:01
Kabir
I’m going for Jazz by the Bay this evening… with some friends… it’s a live performance…it’s going to be a nice evening! Will you accompany me?
02:41:32:22
Aisha
Yes sure!
02:41:42:20
Kabir
Superb! Incredible! Can anything be better than this Aisha?
You had never heard Jazz before, right?
02:42:11:00
Aisha
No… not really!
02:42:24:10
Kabir
By the way, what kind of music do you like?
02:42:26:05
Aisha
I…don’t know… old Hindi film songs… at least one can sing them easily…
02:42:29:15
Kabir
You like film music because it is easy?
02:42:41:11
Aisha
Yes!
02:42:45:09
Kabir
Interesting!
02:42:48:00
Aisha
What? What?
02:42:49:19
Kabir
You know Aisha, there’s a maturity in your writing! But there’s still a child within you! Anyways, if you be in my company like this, you’ll get to know about real music!
02:42:56:11
Tanya
Aisha! Hi!
02:43:23:10
Aisha
Tanya! Hi!
02:43:26:00
Aisha
You? Here?
02:43:28:00
Tanya
Yes, I had come to give few books to Sid! For his new assignment… he’s so excited!
02:43:29:20
Aisha
What new assignment?
02:43:34:15
Tanya
You don’t know? Oh! Amit has asked him to click few photographs for the next issue! So cool right?
02:43:35:20
Aisha
Yes… cool!
02:43:42:00
Tanya
Anyhow, I got to run now! Bye!
02:43:43:17
Aisha
Bye!
02:43:45:09
Tanya
Oh by the way, your place is really cute!
02:43:48:00
Aisha
Thanks!
02:43:52:21
Sid
Hey!
02:44:08:11
Aisha
Hi!
02:44:09:00
Aisha
I’m hungry! Let’s make something! You’ll have?
02:44:15:20
Sid
I’m done! Had made some pasta… a portion is kept for you in the fridge!
02:44:20:10
Aisha
O God! Sid I hope you have cleaned up the kitchen! Whenever you cook, you mess up the kitchen so much that………
You know, in fact I’m not that hungry! Let me change first! It’s really hot here!
I haven’t even laundered for a while! Don’t know what I’m going to wear!
02:44:26:00
Sid
Aish! I’ve laundered for you… along with mine… they are kept in the cupboard!
02:44:50:22
Aisha
Sid, you should have asked me before washing my clothes! I never wash this white kurta! I wear it for sleep! It loses its sheen on washing! I, I , I like it being dirty!
02:45:03:03
Sid
Aisha, what’s wrong with you? I have washed all your clothes… instead of thanking me, you are screaming on me?!
02:45:12:20
Aisha
Because I want to wash my clothes on my own… cook on my own… seems like my home is not mine anymore… I don’t like you doing my work… or call office girls at my place without asking me…
02:45:18:00
Sid
You have gone mad! Seems like the heat is driving you crazy!
02:45:32:23
Aisha
Yes, I’m getting crazy! Look at the humidity!
02:45:36:00
Sid
Hey what do I do about it? Do I bring rains?
02:45:38:17
Aisha
Why not? When you’re becoming so efficient in everything, why not try this one too?
02:45:41:02
Sid
Take it… your rains!
02:45:44:09
Aisha
I can’t believe this… take that!
02:45:49:22
Sid
Aisha, my i-pod! Aisha you are spoiling my i-pod!
02:45:51:08
Aisha
O shit! Sorry sorry sorry!
02:45:54:07
Sid
Hahaha!
02:45:55:20
Aisha
Sid! Stop it! Idiot!
02:45:56:12
Sid
Hey Aish… are you okay? I’m sorry I was kidding!
02:46:15:00
Aisha
It’s okay!
02:46:22:06
Sid
I’m sorry Aish!
02:46:24:15
Sid
You are okay right?
02:46:50:00
Aisha
Yes!
02:46:51:15
Sid
Okay then!!
02:46:53:02
Aisha
That’s enough now Sid! Don’t behave like kids!
02:46:55:11
Aisha
Sid… if you keep helping me like this, I’ll get used to it!
02:47:39:08
Sid
So?
02:47:42:00
Aisha
So it’s not right! What if some day you are not here?
02:47:44:10
Sid
Where will I go Aisha?
02:47:49:15
Sid
Come, the food’s getting cool… come on!
02:47:54:10
Song (female voice)
O heart! You are crazy!
You alone know what you think!
You alone what you think, crazy!
Why do you show me dreams – asleep or awake?
Drop-by-drop these dreams flow down
With my eyes closed…
How do I move ahead when I can’t see the unfamiliar roads?
Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…
Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…
Softly plays the Iktara… softly plays the iktara…
Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…
Completely lost in it, I’m listening to the tale…
Who knows what the entire story is?
I am getting attached to someone,
Not knowing whether this season of love is temporary or permanent!
Who knows? Who knows?
Drop-by-drop these dreams flow down
With my eyes closed…
How do I move ahead when I can’t see the unfamiliar roads?
Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…
Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…
Softly plays the Iktara… softly plays the iktara…
Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…
02:47:57:15
Sid
What’s up?
02:50:33:15
Aisha
Sid, what will happen to my article?
02:50:36:05
Sid
It will be good, what else?
02:50:41:05
Aisha
How do you know?
02:50:44:00
Sid
I know! That’s it!
02:50:47:01

Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…

02:50:50:14
Kabir
Nice! Just proof-read it once more and submit it tomorrow morning!
02:51:25:17
Aisha
Okay! Kabir, shall I leave?
02:51:28:20
Kabir
One second Aisha! Few Jazz musicians from Amsterdam are performing live in Bombay! I’ve got two tickets and you’re accompanying me!
02:51:31:10
Aisha
No Kabir! I can’t come! You know, I had thought I would begin loving Jazz with your influence! But actually, I don’t like Jazz! I’m sorry but it’s just not me!
So tomorrow morning office?
02:51:47:00

The evening seems to be lonely!
02:52:17:15
Amit
Sid boy! I have selected a photograph of yours for the magazine!
02:52:24:10
Sid
Thanks!
02:52:30:10
Amit
Thank me later! Get drunk for now! Okay? Have fun! You’re doing well!

The silences didn’t come thus!
The beauties smile!
Lonely moments are puzzles now!
They tease………!
02:52:47:16
Sid
Brothers & sisters, I am Siddharth Mehra from Mumbai Beat!
02:53:03:00
Laxmi
Ooo hooo!
02:53:06:17
Sid
On the drums Laxmi! And my friend Rishi!
02:53:09:05
Rishi
Thank you! Thank you!
02:53:13:05
Sid
And this is our most favorite song…
02:53:15:00
Laxmi
Yes!
02:53:15:08
Sid
Hit it!
02:53:17:15
Rishi
Dude! Not me, not me, not me…
02:53:18:00
Laxmi
Go Sid!
02:53:22:00
Sid
First addiction, first intoxication…
02:53:24:13
Tanya
This Sid is such a mad!
02:53:29:15
Rishi
He was madder earlier! You just can’t imagine what we’d been up to!
02:53:31:22
Sid
What do I do to myself now, O restless heart!
02:53:36:00
Tanya
And now?
02:53:42:00
Rishi
Now? Where does he have time now?
02:53:43:14
Rishi
New job, new friends, you know!
02:53:50:00
Sid
You tell me…
02:53:56:00
Aisha
First addiction, first intoxication…
02:54:00:18
Tanya
You don’t feel bad?
02:54:08:00
Rishi
Are you kidding? Obviously, I do feel bad!
But it’s okay! Our Sid is towards betterment! Sid’s life has totally changed!
02:54:13:00
Sid
O restless heart, you tell me!
02:54:25:00
Aisha
Sid! You are so very drunk! Come! Sleep off!
02:54:41:18
Aisha
Sid? You are okay?
02:54:55:21
Sid
I know we are not talking! And you are still upset with me! I used to think that someday you would ring me and call me back home! But you didn’t do so! So I had thought till the time you don’t call me, I wouldn’t meet you!
But today… I’ve got a job Dad! A post of an Assistant Photographer in a magazine!
And I want to do this job Dad!
For the past one month, I had been taking photographs… working… and I’m very happy!
I know I never discussed photography with you… and we have a family business as well! But I don’t know why I feel I will understand me… you will understand me because I have imbibed photography from you only!
I had forgotten that photography has been your hobby too!
Innumerable photographs you took… then did you stop?
02:57:12:15
Mr Mehra
You had grown up, son! You didn’t have time for my photographs!
And for me, photography meant clicking you!
02:58:50:15
Sid
It’s my first pay-cheque Dad! For you!
02:59:20:05
Mr Mehra
Promise me, whatever you do now, you’ll do it whole-heartedly!
02:59:34:22
Sid
I’m sorry Dad!
02:59:45:10
Mr Mehra
I love you!
02:59:49:15
Aisha
What happened, Sid? Why did you call me so early?
03:00:33:20
Sid
Thank God you are here Aisha! You won’t believe what happened today!
03:00:41:20
Aisha
What?
03:00:46:23
Sid
I went to meet Dad today! And everything’s in place now! He wants me to come back home!
I’m going home Aisha! Finally, back to my home!
03:00:48:10
Sid
Aish! Say something!
03:01:04:16
Aisha
That’s… that’s great, Sid! That’s really great!
So when are you leaving?
03:01:09:09
Sid
Now! Dad would be coming in anytime!
03:01:19:15
Aisha
You’ll leave so soon?
03:01:25:00
Sid
Yes Aisha! This storeroom will convert back into your home!
03:01:28:10
Sid
Aisha, you let me put up with you for so many days! Thank you so much for everything! This is for you!
03:01:41:20
Aisha
I don’t need this!
03:01:59:00
Sid
Aisha! I know it’s a small gift… but it’s for you!
03:02:03:00
Aisha
I don’t need this stupid gift of yours, okay?
03:02:07:10
Sid
Aisha, why are you getting so upset?
03:02:11:01
Aisha
You are so right! Don’t know why I’m getting upset! After all, I knew this is destined to happen! You were angry at your parents, so you stayed here! Now that all’s well, you are returning!
03:02:13:10
Sid
So what? I’m going back to my home! I can’t stay here forever, right?
03:02:22:05
Aisha
Why can’t you stay here, Sid?
03:02:26:10
Sid
Aisha, I’m not getting it…!
03:02:29:00
Aisha
How will you get it Sid? You don’t get anything! You took such a big decision and didn’t even talk to me? Didn’t think for once how would I feel? Took a decision in a minute like a kid and now you are leaving? I should have known that you were a kid, and will always be one!
03:02:30:00
Sid
Damn you Aisha! Why do you do it always? Whatever I do is all wrong for you!
Yes Aisha! I’m a kid and will always be one!
God, I’m tired now! Tired of being referred to as a kid, again and again! Tired of proving myself all the time!
Ever since I’ve come here, I’ve been trying so that you change your views about me!
But all in vain! Whatever I do, you take me for a kid! Because you can’t see for yourself! I’m just so sick of you Aisha… I’m just so sick of you!
03:02:46:20
Aisha
Aish!
03:03:39:05
Sid
You are right, Sid! I’m the one who can’t see anything! You go home! All the best!

Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…
Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…
Softly plays the Iktara… softly plays the iktara…
Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…
Joyless music plays the iktara…
The free spirit-birdie of my soul
Has left its abode of my heart
Has left its abode of my heart, and left it broken…
The abode is broken and constrained by the bird!
Just as I close my eyes
Tears flow down drop-by-drop… (2)
Why do they torture me and sing along the slow rain songs?
03:04:11:00
Aisha
Hello Mom?! It’s me, Aisha! I’m fine… I’m fine… I was missing you all terribly! Where’s Dad?
03:06:06:06
Song (male voice)
The past night is stale now, and kept by my side…
The fresh new mornings have returned
On seeing my closed doors!
The ovens have cooled down!
The walls have turned damp!
The wails of my heart echo into them!
They echo… the wails of my heart!
Just as I close my eyes
Tears flow down drop-by-drop… (2)
Why do they torture me and sing along the slow rain songs?
Joyless music plays the iktara… Joyless music plays the iktara…
Joyless music plays the iktara… Joyless music plays the iktara…

Brother… brother… get up brother… wake up!
Brother! Hope you are fine! Aren’t you happy that you returned home?
03:07:38:00
Sid
I’m alright Chhotu…
Leave now… don’t bother me!
03:08:05:00
Chhotu
Okay your breakfast is ready! Take your breakfast and…… this magazine came for you early in the morning!
03:08:10:20
Song (male voice)
Feelings have melted in the pearls of raindrops…
A moment of the time has reached out to the heart!
Didn’t realize when it had breezed past the heart…
And now when I look back at it, I have a liking for that moment!
Normally I can’t express my feelings
I’m sending the message through the winds!
Or may be, I could ride the winds and reach you…
If only I could the find the correct words
To express my love for you…
Wake up…
Life is coming your way!

Aisha (voice-over)
New Girl in the City – by Aisha Banerjee!
Like thousands of others, when I stepped into Mumbai, I had brought along few dreams apart from my other stuff! The largest of those dreams was to become a writer! When I was asked to write this column, my dream came true! But despite several efforts, I couldn’t write it! Whatever I wrote, seemed to be incomplete somewhere! What could be that one thing about this city to write on, that had not been talked about?
So, just the night before submission, I tore my article and started writing afresh!
Just in two months’ time, I developed a strange kind of bonding with this city! It has become my own! What’s the reason behind this? My exciting new job? My cozy little flat or my independence? What is it that the city has given me?
Actually the answer to it was right in front me, since long! But I couldn’t identify it!
As soon as I had arrived in Mumbai, I met someone! A guy! A friend! A roommate! A companion! Whatever you say!
Exactly an opposite of mine! He had no ambition or goal in his life! But he definitely knew how to enjoy life!
To think, I wonder the pleasure of converting my house into a home wouldn’t be this much if he were not there by me to help!
I wonder that night would have been lonelier if he had not come down to share tea, and my loneliness!
When I came to Mumbai, my goals were very clear! But now I know, the joy of achieving these goals is only felt when you are able to share it with someone!
Now I know that the strange love I have for this city is actually for this friend! He has become my very own! Mine, much more than this city!
Mumbai, as much ravishing as rough it is! While striving towards our goals, we tend to overlook several things! So, at least for some time, look away from your busy life and look for that special feeling… the one that makes your city, your life all the more beautiful for you… who knows, you might land up getting a partner, like I did!
03:10:50:00
Song (Chorus)
Life is coming your way…

Some Iktara is playing… some iktara is playing…

03:13:42:00
Sid
Why did you have to write such a big article? Couldn’t you tell me at home? You know Aish, I’m an idiot!
Aish! I love you too! I love you!
03:13:56:19
Aisha
I love you Sid!

Song (male voice)
Listen, I have something to say
You know what’s the time
The night is asleep
And the day is awake
The entire surroundings are rubbing their eyes
Even the sounds seem to be yawning
Wake up Sid
Time says…
Wake up Sid
Let’s go somewhere…
Wake up Sid
All directions are calling you…
Listen if you can… listen… listen… listen
Wake up
Listen… listen…
Listen to what everybody has to say…
But choose the option of your choice…
What you need to do is your call only!
Just decide what should be your goal…
Because you are the traveler,
And you alone are the accompaniment of this journey!
Wake up Sid
Time says…
Wake up Sid
Let’s go somewhere…
Wake up Sid
All directions are calling you…
Listen if you can… listen… listen… listen
Wake up
Listen… listen…
The present day may not be same as the past
Don’t stay asleep and unaware in the present day
Why are you so inactive?
Say something, listen to something,
Do something or the other and be active!
Cry, or laugh,
And fill your life with the colors of emotions!
Wake up Sid
Time says…
Wake up Sid
Let’s go somewhere…
Wake up Sid
All directions are calling you…
Listen if you can… listen… listen… listen
Wake up
Listen… listen… (2)
Wake up!
