2017*
There are a total of 810 crore people living on this planet.
India's population alone is 140 crores.
And in Chennai, it's one crore.
If the population keeps rising, what will happen to this planet?
In the past 20 years,
159 fertility centers have sprung up in Chennai.
Instead of banning babies, people have started growing babies in test tubes.
Ridiculous, right?
I, too, had the same opinion.
I am Shriya.
Today is September 3rd, 2017.
Like everyone else, I, too, got the baby fever.
That's right!
When you are born a girl, there will come a time.
You'll fall in love, get married, and wish to be a mother.
You'll want to have kids.
But…
You're newly married, yet you have so many problems.
But you've come at the right time.
If you delay any further, there will be more complications.
I would recommend IVF.
It's a small procedure.
Come back and consult me after a month.
We can test and see if you're pregnant or not.
Today, along with me, 48 women in Chennai are undergoing IVF treatment.
I have only one thought on my mind.
I must get pregnant today.
Is it the right or wrong decision?
When you do something unknowingly, it's a mistake.
When you do it intentionally, that's foolishness.
But this is IVF treatment.
We are talking about babies.
It's not like you can have a baby and lose it at a carnival.
When will the doctor arrive?
No matter how many times you ask me,
the doctor will arrive when she has to.
You're so impatient even before the procedure.
I wonder how you will wait patiently for nine months to have a baby.
You have already made a decision.
Don't overthink unnecessarily.
Hey, Shriya!
All okay?
Yeah!
Breathe!
Okay. They'll administer anesthesia to you.
You will sleep for a while.
Any questions before that?
I'm right here. Don't worry.
Nothing to worry.
Count one to ten.
One…
Two…
Will it be a boy or a girl?
Three, four…
What should I name the child?
Five…
Six…
Who is the father of my child?
Doctor!
Who is the father of my child?!
Doctor!
Don't do it!
Stop!
Who is… the father of my child?
NO TIME FOR LOVE
Dad, please lower the volume.
Look at this wall.
The mason did not do his job properly.
He cheated us!
Dad, please don't start again. It's fine!
Fine, my foot!
I know what you're going to say.
"I did suggest you buy an apartment.”
Why is that wrong?
Do you know why the thieves have disappeared in our city?
They've all got into the real estate business.
You know what an expensive affair it is, to buy an apartment in Chennai?
I know Dad, I'm an architect in Chennai.
- Don't teach me about my work. - Yeah, right!
Why did you let Karan buy you a sari?
Do we have to get married like this?
Shriya…
Registering our marriage is just a formality.
I'm asking only because we have to process our US visa.
We are already engaged.
In two months…
we'll be married for real.
How does it matter?
I cannot make your parents understand the situation.
Especially if your mother comes to know…
about the registered marriage before the wedding,
she'll make my life hell!
What if his parents think you're exploiting him before the wedding?
Amma, please. This is 2017.
We have decided to split the wedding expenses.
Okay!
And I did not ask him to buy me a sari.
It's Karan…
who said he would gift me one as I don't have any.
That's the problem!
Get used to wearing a sari like a woman.
I will, my dear mother!
I don't like the fact that both of you are going out before marriage.
I've been going out with him for four years,
hence we are getting married.
You're speaking as if it's an arranged marriage.
I know it's a love marriage.
But both the families are involved now.
Why don't you be careful until the wedding?
Ma!
What?
Do you really think I'm still a virgin?
Listen to what your daughter is saying.
Shameless woman!
You're married to this house!
Spare some time for this family.
Damaged floor.
Plumbing problems.
Your daughter's…
Virginity lost.
Atrocious!
What is this, dear?
We must have babies as soon as we get married.
I'm not getting any younger.
And I also have PCOD.
It's terrifying to see fertility clinics at every corner.
I'm ready now!
Let's begin “Project Baby” right now.
I don't understand why people are determined to procreate.
The world is turning uninhabitable and poisonous.
Climate change is real.
But I don't think anyone is concerned about it.
I am Siddharth!
I'm a Structural Engineer.
Constructing buildings is my job.
And building renewable and green-energy structures is my ambition.
This… is the future!
This is your children's future.
What cost are we looking at here?
Let's think about it.
We'll discuss this and get back to you, RK.
- Thank you, RK. - Thank you.
They were this close to signing. But now they're bolting.
Sir! Sustainable building is a new thing.
Currently, what looks like energy saving…
will turn into a cost-saving investment in the future.
It'll take some time to make the clients understand.
We need to be patient.
Siddharth, you should've at least used a better font.
These kinds of characters are the ones who make us dislike the jobs we love.
I may face immense pressure at work…
but I have two people who cool me down.
They're my stress busters.
This is Gowda.
And this is Sethu.
Three of a kind. Queen.
- There he goes again. - Get out!
But today, these two stress busters are stressed.
Sethu is fond of children.
He's eager to become a father.
But he's gay!
And Gowda is against gay parenting.
You're to blame for it.
Are you happy now?
I never said anything wrong.
Do not overreact.
Sid, you tell me.
- Hey, Gowda… - What is it?
Why are you telling him not to have a child?
Hey, you need a mother to raise a child.
I will be a mother, too.
You accept me being gay.
But you people won't accept gay parenting.
Shut up, your damaged mouth!
Preach your Western ideas elsewhere.
This is India. My country.
Gowda has a point.
But the reason he's quoting is wrong.
Why?
I have no qualms with gay parenting.
Your idea of bringing another child into this world…
That's my problem.
Hey, why bring more babies?
As it is, we are a burden to this planet.
You want to keep adding to the population.
Correct! Put some sense into his head.
Your parents must've thought about it, before having you guys.
I have made up my mind.
Do not irritate me!
- Gowda! - Tell me.
- Are you coming with me or not? - What do I say?
If Siddharth is up for it, I'll come too.
- What's with the gesture? - Where are you guys going?
I can come too if you need me.
Here comes Mr. Senior in his shorts.
He still thinks he's a dude.
Dad, you're too old for that.
Old for what?
Uncle, what's your opinion on gay parenting?
Gay parenting…
I don't see any difference.
It's settled. If he's coming, I'll go too.
Sethu, let me know where you want to go.
I'll come with you.
Uncle, I want to go to the sperm bank and freeze my sperm.
Uncle, why did your face freeze?
Our challenging times can lead to unexpected outcomes.
But we wouldn't know at that time.
If I had landed this project, my life would've turned out differently.
As it did not happen…
a miracle happened in my life.
Sethu, where are you?
Hey…
Hey, do I look like a pet to you?
The nurse has seen everything from upstairs.
It's empty.
There's no hope for mankind.
We cannot save ourselves.
Why is he picking rubbish from the streets?
- Listen… - Give me a tea.
Friends either go to Bangkok or go on a pilgrimage together.
But you, you've brought me to a sperm bank.
Damn it! I'm ashamed to call you all my friends.
Hey, Gowda, after ten years…
if you wish to have a child. What would you do then?
Why don't you suggest that as well?
What if you turn impotent because of your drinking and smoking?
I come from a strong lineage.
- Idiot! - In the future… You just don't know!
What if your boys don't swim?
Fine, what's the situation inside?
Inside? There are hot chicks!
You can pick anyone you like.
Desperate bugger!
We should water our own plants.
Censor?
Stop annoying me!
Gowda, what I'm trying to say is…
It'll be helpful if you wish to have children in the future.
I came to support you,
but you're annoying me with all this baby talk.
If my wife hears you, then she'd want to have children.
Please hear me out!
At least come for moral support.
Moral support?! Take your hands off me.
He wants to make pancakes on a cold stone.
Sid, please!
I'll pay for both of you.
Okay, losers!
I'm having a bad day.
At least let him be happy.
Gowda, since childhood, we have done everything together.
- Yes! - Why should we spare this experience?
I'm also going to freeze my sperm.
Thanks, bro!
- Is this a promise to make on the street? - Come on! Yes!
- Dear Lord, please help me. - Pay for the tea.
- Hey, I don't have-- - Hey!
- This guy is too much. - Hey! Hey!
Hey, Siddharth, I don't have money.
Hey, Tea-man! I'm an emergency doctor.
- I'll send money with a nurse. - Hey, pay up!
- Escape!
"Freeze.
Beyond fear lies freedom!"
Next month the weather will be hot.
Shall we go to Goa and have "Feni"?
This is not a bar. Silence!
- Do you think this nurse is married? - I'm done.
This one? Probably married to a dimwit.
- Mr. Sethuraman! - She's calling you.
- Wait! - All the best!
Sister?
My friends also want to freeze their sperm.
I expected a hot chick, but she's a glum chick.
It's only possible with an appointment.
Ma'am, please!
Please don't spoil their dreams of becoming a father.
There's no harm in destroying their dream.
Ma'am! Please!
Okay!
Make it quick!
- Before the next customer. - It's a spice container.
- Well, some assistance would help. - What?
He was-- He didn't mean it like that.
What he meant to say was…
- Why is she looking at us weird? - I hate my job!
She's atrocious!
There's a TV inside every room.
After you are finished…
Hello! Return the USB drive.
I hope it won't buffer.
Hey! Your grouchy face is a turn-off!
Customer satisfaction is important.
What's the room number?
All the rooms are open. Pick anyone, now get lost!
Pick anyone?
What if someone is already busy inside?
- Bring your containers! - Take your time.
- No hurry! - Wait! Hello!
You must fill out these forms.
The thought of you men becoming fathers…
The future is scary!
God bless us all!
- Hey, it looks like a Thai massage center. - Hey, open up!
That's enough!
- Hey! - Hello--
All the rooms are full!
This place looks like paradise.
Sethu, it's my first time. Feeling nervous and tense.
Dude, it's not your wedding night.
- Get lost! - Hey!
Bro!
How do I do this on demand?
You're an expert!
Get to it!
I gave a fake name and address. I hope it won't be an issue.
Get to it, damn it!
What?
The movie was a bit boring.
Am I the director?
She's very strong!
What's taking him so long?
He's a good man. He helped me insert the USB.
Oh!
Even he is back. But Sid is still at it.
Is the movie running long?
He will come.
Here, he comes.
Were you waiting for the end-credit scene?
Thank you, sister.
Your name is James Padmanaban?
Yes!
You can call it short and sweet as P. James!
Sister, I have a doubt.
I feel proud that this tiny cup holds an entire generation.
How many children do you think might be there in this?
If we use the entire cup…
we can form an entire country like India.
There are 1.2 billion children in this cup.
Did you hear that?
We'll send them all as extras for the film Bahubali.
First, we need to check if they're working.
Hello, Sister, they'll work!
Why do you have a doubt?
It's men like you with overconfidence and lame jokes,
who never make the cut, Mr. P. James.
- Have a good day. - Go and get him.
- Let's go! - I've been observing her for two hours.
She's been grouchy!
Thank you, sister.
Hey!
That's company property.
Give it back.
Hello!
Hey, come back!
Hey, it's a girls' fashion show?
You're confused about everything.
All the girls look like clothes on a hanger.
- Hey! - Hey!
Next is you. You too latch on.
- Hi! - Hi!
- Don't touch! Go back!
Hey…
Okay, guess what?
Guess who's going to Paris next month.
- No way! - Yes-way, baby!
Awesome!
- I'm going to Paris. - I don't care!
Hello--
She looks familiar.
Sid, what happened?
Our engagement is next week.
Are you wondering how it'll be possible?
It's not that.
When I come to meet you in Paris…
I'm thinking about how I can chat with French girls.
- Hey! - Nice dress!
Just kidding!
- I'm proud of you. - Thank you!
Guess what we did today.
- Hey, you promised not to tell anyone. - Tell me!
- Shut up! - There's no harm in telling her.
You don't get it. Please don't tell her.
- Hey! - Come on, tell me!
It's nothing. Don't bother.
Hey, don't tell her.
- Tell her. - We froze our sperm.
- Get lost! - Yeah!
You too?
I swear! Sid as well.
- No one heard it. - Oh, my God!
- Stop grinning, idiot! - "I don't want to have kids."
"This world is an evil place."
"I don't want to contribute," you said.
I stand by my point.
I went to give this loser company.
- Get lost! - It's okay, dude.
Nirupama will thank you later.
- As if… - It's not something to say out loud.
Okay, Sid. I need to talk to you in private.
I'll see you guys.
Stop smiling!
What do we do now?
Why don't you wear a dress and walk on the ramp?
I don't know what to do with him.
What is this, Sid?
I'm not able to figure you out.
I don't know what I am going to do after marrying you.
Niru, you got a great break at work.
You wished to do modeling in Europe.
Now that wish has come true.
Just focus on that.
Why bring up kids and marriage?
What is your point?
In two weeks, we have our engagement.
After that, are you not planning to get married?
Niru…
Marriage is a recipe for disaster.
It just sucks the love out of people.
And makes them toxic.
I agreed to the engagement just for you.
You go to Paris now.
- After that… - Just for me?
Then what do you want, Sid?
I don't know!
I don't know.
But I know I wanna quit my job.
Then quit the job.
Meanwhile, I'll manage finances.
No! It won't work out, Niru.
Oh! You're wondering how to live on your girlfriend's money?
Hey, Niru, come on. No!
If only your brains are as big as your egos.
- Every man is like this-- - Just stop!
Why do you women bring up a feminist angle into everything?
Okay, sorry.
Niru, look at me.
Babe!
Look at me!
Please don't say that I'm beautiful when I'm angry.
Tell me, what do you want?
And I'll do it.
After I return from Paris…
I want a cute…
church wedding.
Okay?
Okay.
After you return from Paris, we'll get married.
Anyway, it's just a formality.
What do you mean?
You say okay, with so many conditions applied.
Whenever I speak of marriage…
you take cover like I detonated a bomb.
A wedding is a happy event, Sid.
Fine! Your friends asked you…
you went and froze your sperm with them.
In the future, if I wanted to have children?
Will you say okay?
I have already told you that I don't want children.
Then why did you freeze your sperm?
That was nothing!
Instead of doing it with you, I did it in a cup.
Oh, it just takes a cup, to replace me?
Oh, Nirupama!
Why are you complicating such a small matter?
You don't want to have children--
But you froze your sperm.
Are you complicating matters, or is it me?
Can we just…
talk about it later?
Yes!
I have to go as well.
Whatever it is…
You should not have fought with Nirupama.
That, too, before the engagement.
Uncle, did you conceive Sid at a bad time?
You see…
Tell me.
It was on the night of Diwali.
Clad in a red sari…
wearing jasmine on her manes…
- I was-- - Appa!
Give me a break.
Hey, we conceived you on that night.
Who conducts an engagement at a farmhouse?
You could've held it in a hotel.
If you ask me, a funeral home would have been more apt.
Oh, no, please!
Can we avoid my boss? And this stupid Naveen.
Hey, how could we?
It will look bad.
It won't!
- Because I'm quitting! - What?
Hey! Finally!
I found an investor, Pa!
He agreed to a joint venture.
Fifty-fifty partnership. Ten crores project.
Can we take a loan on our house?
Yeah!
Did you discus it with Nirupama?
Why should I discuss taking a loan on our house with her?
You have to, my son!
She's going to be your wife.
No matter what…
discuss with her from now on and make decisions.
Also, after marriage…
don't see these differences.
That'll break your relationship.
For the final time!
It is just an engagement!
- Hey, dude, don't get worked up. - Be calm!
Here, bite into this leg piece.
Hello, Mrs. Karan.
What are your plans for dinner tonight?
I'm not changing my last name for you, you bloody Y chromosome.
Okay, fine!
Where shall we go for dinner?
I have big news.
Dinner…
I doubt it, Karan.
What is the big news?
Before our second wedding ceremony, the visa will be approved.
We can leave immediately.
Congrats!
Congrats to us, Shriya! Let's celebrate!
In two days, I will be done with my presentation.
After that, we will celebrate.
You know what, Shriya…
I love you!
I know!
- I'll call you back. - Okay.
Bye!
The miniature looks great.
You think?
Are you sure about moving to America?
Is there any way I can stop you from leaving this firm?
I reckon you'll complete the project before you leave.
I will finish it before I leave.
You've worked for five days straight without sleep.
Why don't you take a day off today?
I'm yet to revise the budget.
You're a bride-to-be. You need to relax.
Take rest! Because rest is a…
Weapon!
You got it!
Did you shower? You look beautiful today.
- Hey, Sethu, click a picture of us. - You always make fun of me.
Come on!
The Vodafone number you've called is currently--
Hey, Siddharth, please relax.
Maybe their car broke down.
Then why is she not answering the phone?
Can't she even send a text to inform me?
The engagement ceremony is yet to start.
But everyone is already high on spirits.
Okay, don't worry.
I'll call her parents and check.
Relax.
Mr. Groom-to-be, butterflies in the stomach?
She has not yet arrived.
- Who? - Niru!
She's not answering my calls.
Then keep calling.
Instead of calling, he's doing bottoms-up.
Dude, be calm!
Yeah.
Thank you.
Hey, didn't I tell you I quit smoking?
I thought you quit smoking.
- Baby, I swear, I quit. - Don't lie to me!
You swore on me!
Aren't you still alive?
I'll handle you later!
- She can drink in front of me. - Bro…
- But I can't smoke it seems. - She will be here soon.
You know how women are.
She would've lost track of time with make-up and dressing.
She'll come, right?
Don't make me swear!
- Welcome, madam. - Kanniappan, how are you?
I'm good, madam.
Is your daughter attending school?
- Yes, she is! - I hope you did not send her to work.
No, madam. Since you paid the school fee, she's been attending school.
Good!
- Is Karan home? - Yes, madam.
He does not know I'm coming home.
I'm going to surprise him.
Please mind the door. Doors closing.
Going up.
Shri!
Oh, God!
Shri!
Shri! Shri! Shri!
Stop, Shri!
Shri!
It's not what it looks like.
How?
Why?
She wanted a job and came to me for help.
We opened a wine bottle to celebrate our wedding.
I got drunk!
Shit!
Hey!
Shri…
Hey, let me have it too.
Uncle, where's Nirupama?
Is everything okay?
We tried reasoning with Nirupama.
But she's stubborn!
We told her.
That she can't do something like this at the last minute.
Uncle, is Nirupama okay?
She's not coming!
Hi, Sid!
I thought you would have a change of heart after the wedding…
and will agree to have kids.
But I realized it the other day.
We both want different things.
Sometimes, love alone is not enough.
I'm sorry.
Shriya, open the door.
Shriya!
Shriya, what are you doing inside?
Open the door.
Both mother and daughter have locked themselves in their rooms.
It has become a huge issue.
She's saying she broke off the engagement.
And has called off the wedding. What do I make of it?
She's not telling us the reason.
Do you people know?
How would I know, brother-in-law?
I smell cigarettes.
Does Shriya smoke?
Hey, does she smoke?
- Tell me. - How would I know?
Shriya!
Please don't come inside my room.
Her mother's rambling on about warning her that love marriage wouldn't work.
She's threatening to commit suicide.
She's been threatening for a while.
She won't die so soon.
You take care of your wife.
We will handle this.
Oh, no, I'll take care of my daughter. You take care of my wife.
You married her. So you put up with her!
Get going!
- Kanmani… - He's gone.
- Did you get wine? - Wine?
Hey, wait! I'm coming too!
Oh, no!
Hey, Ashwini, are you her supplier?
Hey, what's this nonsense?
Do you want?
When did you start smoking?
I started today.
In films, men resort to smoking when they go through love failure.
So, I tried smoking too.
But I realize it's not working.
That's because you're doing it all wrong!
- How would you know? - You see…
Of course, how would I know?
That's not the issue right now.
There are other men out there.
He's a loser!
I was in a relationship for four years with him.
How could he do this to me?
That Radhika… that bloody bitch!
Hey! Hey! Hey, Shriya!
Let it go!
Thank goodness we knew his true traits well before the marriage.
What if this had happened after marriage?
Think about it!
Hey, what is it?
What is it?
It's nothing, Auntie.
I don't buy it. There's more to it.
You both are hiding something from me.
I pleaded in vain
It's only two weeks since your marriage.
- And you broke my heart too - And you're filing for divorce already.
This sadistic pleasure you get Picking from my wounded heart
Has made me hysterical
You, psycho lover
I don't need your psychotic love
Self-love is enough for me
Your season is over
Your toxic love is a thing of the past!
It's a breakup!
Breakup!
It's a breakup!
Breakup!
Let's breakup!
Breakup!
Yeah! Let's breakup!
I still have a future
And you are not worthy to be in it
Why this unnecessary build-up?
- I have nothing to say to you anymore - Hey, Sid!
Would you order me a drink?
You were my life
And you crushed it, heartlessly
My life is a celebration now
Always on a winning streak
You will be a perpetual loser
While I go live like a bachelor
I don't want you
I don't need you
The palace of love That we built together…
Remember I mentioned this land to you.
We can sign the deal whenever you're ready.
We can complete the project in eight months.
Thank you, Rohit, for trusting me.
It's going to be path-breaking.
- Siddharth! - Using this soil--
Siddharth!
I can't do this.
Please don't take me wrong. Your ideas are brilliant.
But Dad thinks your investments are too high, and returns are low.
He disapproves. Sorry!
Self-love is enough for me…
Don't worry, Shriya.
We can choose to annul the marriage with mutual consent.
If we go through with the annulment, this marriage will not be valid.
I'm on my way, RK.
You spoiled her rotten.
You should've taught her our traditions while raising her.
Rituals and religious teachings are for this purpose only.
To save us from troubles of this kind.
Modern-day, educated women have become arrogant.
It's best to find a good boy and get her married quickly.
What are you going to name her?
Abithapushpam Aathira Santhanam Ramakrishnan.
Do you like it?
Poor child!
She won't have space to write her name on the passport and in school.
Why don't you name her Aathira Santhanam?
It's my father-in-law's mother's name.
Elders never pay heed to our wishes.
Charu, please come over here.
I am coming!
Here, hold her.
You have brought shame to our family.
Listen, Uncle Narayanan's son…
He likes you and has agreed to marry you.
He is settled in London.
He's aware of your relationship and the called-off engagement.
He does not care about it.
I have invited them home tomorrow.
Get married to that boy…
make a beautiful baby like this…
and reclaim our family's honor.
Why do we need a man?
To get married!
Why do we get married?
To make babies.
Correct?
Why do we need a man?
To make babies.
You get my point?
What if I get pregnant directly?
Shriya!
No, no, no, no, no, no!
No!
Shriya!
No!
Shri, I messed up!
I have no excuses!
- Please hear me out-- - Shut up!
It happened unknowingly.
Unknowingly means?
Did you both accidentally trip and fall into the bed?
Look…
I'm not here to forgive you and take you back.
I need a favor.
And you're going to do it.
Shriya.
Do you smoke or drink, Karan?
- I-- - Yes!
- Is the sperm test done? - Yes, it's done, Doctor.
Sperm test?
And… How's your sex life?
- Of course-- - Every night before going to bed…
I pray to Lord Kama.
- But… - Shriya!
Erectile dysfunction, Doctor.
Shriya!
You're recently married, yet there are too many problems.
You have a cyst in your ovaries.
If you delay further, it'll get more complicated.
Shriya, you made this decision at the right time.
Shri…
It's a painless procedure.
And, meanwhile…
I want you to go through this pamphlet.
When are you planning to undergo the procedure?
As soon as possible…
- Do we have reports from all the tests? - Yes, Doctor.
Shriya…
I know that you can never forgive me.
I…
I never meant it to end like this.
I'll sign wherever you want me to.
And…
I am truly sorry.
Is everything okay, Shriya?
Yes!
Doctor, whose sperm will you be using?
Is it possible to know their profile?
No, Shriya! The donor will remain anonymous.
What are you thinking about?
Any second thoughts?
Doctor, I have no second thoughts about the procedure.
But I'm wondering who'd be the father of my child.
Hello, sir! Am I speaking to P. James?
We are calling from Seed Fertility Center.
Sir, you came to our clinic on April 15th to freeze your sperm.
Am I right, sir?
Sorry, sir! We misplaced your specimen.
Could you please come back and repeat the process?
It's free of cost, sir.
- Excuse me. - Yes, Ma'am.
- I want a pregnancy kit. - How many?
- Ten! - Ten?
Baby chiki chiki cha Have been gifted a new life
Shall I chiki chiki cha Sing a lullaby without anyone knowing
Baby chiki chiki cha Have been gifted a new life
Shall I chiki chiki cha Sing a lullaby without anyone knowing
Everything's turning
Into positives
A new rhythm forms
In the heart… Hey, hey
What do you want? Just kick and ask for it
Baby, let's go Oh, your mom is so cool
Waiting for the day
With you holding my hand We can go a long way
You and I are enough from now
Baby chiki chiki cha Have been gifted a new life
Shall I chiki chiki cha Sing a lullaby without anyone knowing
Stay inside and circle inside Tickling me
Do whatever and stay comfortable
Hey, the countdown has started
When are you coming?
Just can't wait to hold you in my arms
My body and mind undergo changes
I feel you are my soulmate
Whatever I do henceforth Would be for you, Oh…
I'm pregnant!
God help me!
It's my sins from previous birth.
I warned you enough. You never listened.
You spoke like a know-it-all.
Now you're pregnant out of wedlock.
We don't have another choice now.
You will have to marry Karan!
It's not what you think, Ma.
Then?
It's not Karan's child.
What are you saying?
Who else is the father?
I don't know.
Have you gone mad?
I don't get it. What is she trying to say?
Shriya!
I got pregnant through a sperm donor.
Kanmani!
Shriya!
What have you done, Shriya?
I want to have a child, Pa.
These days, you don't need a man to have a child.
What have you done, dear?
Kanmani!
Kanmani, open the door!
Kanmani!
Ka--
- What is it? - Only one of us can live
in this house from now on!
Despite my pains
If I am laughing That is for you
I break all my barriers
Only for you
I am no longer alone
I live for you
Oh, I am a Mumma
Oh, oh, I'm your Mumma
We don't know the birthplace of Paranthaman.
A few say he was born in Sathankulam.
A few say he was born in Bihar.
Across India, he has murdered 24 and raped 36 people.
But no one is aware of his whereabouts.
The investigation revealed a shocking fact about him.
He used to donate his sperm to sperm banks.
Psychologists state two reasons for his behavior.
The first reason is money.
Another reason… Majority of the serial killers…
are self-centered and narcissistic.
To extend their lineage, they use this method other than rape.
You are four months pregnant.
And now you want to know who's the father.
I did tell you not to pry about who the donor is.
Why?
Don't I have the right to know if my child's father is a serial killer or not?
Even if he's a serial killer…
There is no evidence to suggest that
the son of a serial killer will become one.
A person who sells his sperm for a mere 5,000 rupees…
I wonder how he is.
He must be poor!
Being poor is not a crime.
I don't know if you're aware of it.
But be careful!
When you meet him, don't disclose that you are pregnant with his child.
Not a chance!
Don't worry! I'm not stupid!
I can handle him.
Once I'm done attending the Builder's Summit…
I will head straight to see who this P. James is.
- Okay? Bye! - Bye!
And our emphasis has always been on hybrid buildings.
Hybrids are a mix of prefab and traditional concrete.
It's also very very cost-efficient.
Or you can go completely green.
Can you elaborate on it?
What my colleague was trying to say is--
I know what I'm trying to say.
It's okay, guys. Thank you.
- Thanks! - Sir!
Siddharth, you're a structural engineer.
Marketing, pitching, and convincing is my job.
I am the architect here.
You can't just poke your nose and push your opinions everywhere you like.
Very unprofessional!
Annoying!
Siddharth!
Siddharth, I'll have to report this to RK.
Siddharth, come back!
Our firm, Skyline Architects,
is committed to providing you with comfort and quality
with absolutely no compromises.
Our low-cost housing project
is not only about building affordable homes for our customers.
But we also create different models and let them have their pick.
So this creates a sense of ownership even before we start building.
How affordable are your units really?
Ours will be a self-sustaining project.
If public structures start embracing this new tech…
This Naveen is irritating me.
Give me an idea to shut him up!
Do you mean that sucker?
Push a flower pot from the terrace when he's standing right under it.
What if he misses the mark?
We'll hire Arumugam, the paid assassin to kill him.
What do you say?
Get me the beer. Come on, get it.
I saw a girl earlier today.
What else is new?
Not again!
- Please hear me out! - Go ahead!
She made an impressive presentation.
It was passionate and ambitious!
I was floored!
The address has brought me to a bar.
You gave me the wrong address.
Is it? Perhaps the donor registered a fake address.
That means the name P. James is fake, too?
I took it out from the records.
What do I do now?
It's better you return.
No! I'm going inside the bar.
- Why? - I'm hungry!
I wish I had her confidence.
- Why is it not opening? - Damn!
Is it jammed?
Open, damn it!
He's pouring his heart out, and you're indifferent to his feelings.
I drink alcohol to get high and relax.
- But with you lot, I don't even get high. - Hey, that girl is here!
Hey!
He's gone!
He's got his target for tonight.
After he broke up with Anupama--
It's not Anupama, it's Nirupama.
I don't care. The names represent girls, right?
Since the breakup, he's just been hitting on all kinds of women.
I'll handle him later.
Hi!
Hello!
I'm sorry…
Have we met before?
You look so familiar.
We've never met. But I was at the Expo today.
Oh!
And your presentation was brilliant.
Thanks!
I'm Siddharth.
Shriya.
Ma'am, your juice.
Have you come alone?
Actually…
I came to surprise a friend.
But the surprise is on me. He stood me up!
Oh!
Why don't you join us?
Oh!
Actually, I have a flight to catch.
- Where to? - Chennai.
Chennai!
Nice to meet you, Shriya.
Nice meeting you.
- Tension! - Hey!
- Why? - No smoking!
Smoking is injurious to your health.
Hey, don't tell the customers. Tell the manufacturers.
Give it back!
I said, give it back!
Hey!
Did you cancel your flight for me?
- Delayed! - Oh!
I don't know you well enough to cancel the flight.
Even if it were the case…
I don't think I'll cancel my flight for you.
I deserve it!
Drink?
- Please… - Actually, I'm hungry.
What's good to order?
Here…
You know what,
the food is better at my place than here.
Is this the pick-up line they use in Bengaluru?
He is not hitting on you.
He's telling the truth.
- Hi, I'm Sethu. And this is Gowda. - Hi.
- Hi! - Namaskar!
Actually, Sid's father is a fantastic cook.
- He has nothing else to do. - You should try his Hilsa.
It's incredible.
Hilsa?
Fish, Bengaluru style.
Oh!
You must be wondering how to trust three strangers.
Hey!
I'm married.
That's my concern!
Damn!
Even my wife does not trust me to go out with me in the night.
Of course, why would you?!
Are you all Tamil?
I am Tamil.
Half Tamil, half Kannada.
- Half Coorgi, half Malayali. - He's always off!
All settled in Bengaluru.
Wow!
Complete South Indian spread.
- Total! - No, no, no!
Complete cocktail mix.
Pan-India drinking!
- Drinking? - We get sloshed and barf!
I was hoping you would come And you came
I said I might come And I came
I just knew it That you would come again
Don't forget me, I said I promised I'll be back
My sweetheart I came for you
If you'll have me I'll surrender to you
I am drunk in your sweetness Are you real or surreal
I am being enchanted
My heart is slipping away
What is enchanting me?
My heart is slipping away
Intoxicating days are back
This warm embrace is elapsing
Intoxicating days are back
This warm embrace is elapsing
I am being enchanted
My heart is slipping away
What is enchanting me?
My heart is slipping away
I long for you every day My sleepless pale eyes are like days
And the dark circles around my eyes Are like nights
I saved my eternal love To never run out of it
You are deeply engraved In my heart
The iris in your eyes Is so full of life
It brought me to life
Am I trapped in the quantum of time?
Hey, it's a straight!
- Yes! - Give me Five!
Siddhu, you have competition now.
Not just in poker!
You should've seen her at the Expo.
She was a marketing pro!
Is it?
Hey! You know what you should do.
One sec!
You should use structural insulated panels.
It'll bring down your cost further.
Are you an architect as well?
I'm a structural engineer.
Really?
- Can I make copies? - Be my guest.
Where did you implement these ideas?
Can I see?
Buddy…
Let's eat.
Uncle, where's Auntie?
She's no more, dear.
I'm so sorry, Uncle.
I shouldn't have assumed.
- It's okay. - It was a long time ago.
It's been twenty-five years.
After that, it's just me and Sid.
Was it difficult being a single parent?
Yes… and no!
Parenting is difficult as it is.
We have these doubts about whether we're raising them right.
Not a day goes by thinking about your child's safety.
Remarrying was not an option.
Siddharth was a stubborn child.
So we're alright.
Still, when he returns home late…
I am worried.
As a parent,
you can never stop worrying.
Uncle, you don't have to worry about him.
Instead, worry about us being his friend.
We put up with a lot.
Hey!
Eat!
Uncle, did you cook?
- Do you like it? - This is the best fish I've ever eaten.
Thank you.
My father built this house for my mother.
That's why we never altered anything.
He loved her so much.
It's a miracle to find that kind of love.
Don't you think?
I'd like to ask you a personal question.
Yes, I'm single.
Shut up!
Do you miss your mother?
Honestly, I don't miss her.
My father raised me with so much love and care.
I'd like to ask you a personal question.
Are you single?
Yes.
You?
Now I am.
She stood me up on the day of our engagement.
Sorry!
It's fine.
My fiance cheated on me before the wedding…
with my best friend.
Wow!
Why did your girl stand you up on your engagement?
Nirupama wanted to have children.
But I didn't want children.
I don't get it.
Should all marriages end in reproduction?
I don't know! Is it a rule or something?
Why is it that important?
I mean…
Shriya?
Hey?
I asked you something.
I… I have to go.
Can you call a cab?
There's a lot of time. I can drop you.
Yeah.
Thanks!
Please don't be a boy.
- Come on, Shriya. Push, Shriya. - You can do it.
- Push! - Push, Shriya.
- Baby is coming. Push, Shriya. - Push!
I can see the head.
Push, Shriya. You can do it, Shriya.
Yes!
It's a boy!
Congratulations!
As you all know…
Vishwamithra is planning to build 120 condos
across Chennai, Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Kolkata.
Twelve firms have been shortlisted.
The design that we submitted…
Of course…
put together by Shriya.
We just now received the news…
that we have been selected.
What?
Congratulations, sir.
- So you've done it! - Thank you.
- Not yet. - Congrats!
Congrats, Sir.
We are still in the race with the other 11 firms.
- Congrats! - Thank you.
I know the competition will be tough.
If you get us this project…
I will make you the partner of this company.
The project is ours, partner.
My dad is the CEO of READYCOM corporation.
He studied Msc. Computer Science.
He spends time with me…
Parthiv loves Dia.
- Parthiv loves Dia. - Shut up, Ajmal.
- Silence! - Parthiv…
Did your father really die in a war with Pakistan?
Yes!
Then he must have told you many war stories.
He's dead, you idiot!
How could he possibly tell me stories?
Thank you.
Who kicked this ball at me?
It was me.
Did he get the ball?
Is it?
- Oh, no! - Hey, what's happening?
Hey, Mister!
Why did you kick it?
Football is meant to be kicked.
You have to buy me a new football.
You apologize to me. I'll buy it for you.
Hey, it was just an apology.
Why didn't you say it?
Why should I apologize?
I did not kick the ball.
Parthiv.
Hey!
Parthiv!
Wait and watch what I'm going to do to you.
- Give it to me! - Amma!
Amma, you have no idea how long it took for me to reach this level.
I called you ten times!
You didn't bother to respond.
When you called me once…
and I did not respond, why didn't you leave?
You've become too smug.
Don't you claim proudly,
that I'm just like you?
I don't know what I'm going to do with you.
Fine, did you finish your homework?
Yes!
- Milk? - Yes, Ma!
Why do you play such violent games?
Self-defense, Ma!
You have an answer for everything?!
Then stop asking me questions.
Hello, Shriya.
- Hello? - Yeah, Dad, I can hear you. Tell me.
What's my grandson up to?
Can I speak to him?
Parthiv, Grandpa wants to talk to you.
Tell him I'll call him later.
Appa, he'll talk to you later.
Okay, fine.
So, how are you?
Appa, I know that you're least bothered about me.
You only called to speak to your grandson.
Yeah, right.
It's me who's caught between you and your mother's ego.
Parthiv, your time is up.
Appa, I'll speak to you later.
- Okay, bye. - Okay, bye!
Lately, I'm clueless about how to manage Parthiv.
I don't know where he learned to talk like this.
I know!
I was never like this.
Then probably, he takes after his father.
But we'll never know.
- Hi, Shriya. - Hi, Vivek.
How are you?
I'm fine.
Coffee powder…
Sure!
"Coffee powder" has arrived.
He's diligently been trying for the past two years.
Approximately, he would've borrowed 20 kilos of coffee powder.
Why don't you give him a chance?
Auntie!
I too wish to hold hands, have a pleasant conversation,
and walk into the sunset.
But I've lost trust in love.
Please give me something to eat. I'm hungry.
I'm not asking you to get married to him.
Go out for coffee.
And get to know him better.
You go and give it.
And also, you go out for coffee with him.
If I were younger, I would've gone.
Hey!
- Grandpa, can you buy me a football? - Why?
If I don't buy a new ball for Adithya…
He said, "He'll kick me around as a football."
Why should you buy him a football?
Because a moron kicked the ball out of the compound on purpose.
If I don't buy him a new football…
they won't take me on their team.
Who was it?
One, two, three, four…
Noel, take the ball!
Aren't you playing?
Oh! They kicked you out of the team.
Or are you afraid?
Shriya!
Siddharth!
What are you doing over here?
- I… - Ma, scold him!
It was this fellow who kicked the ball out of the compound.
Hey, didn't I tell you to speak with respect?
Is he your son?
- Yeah, Parthiv. - Oh!
- Hi, Parthiv! - "Hi, Parthiv!"
Get lost, you fool.
- Hey! - Get lost, you fool.
I'm so sorry.
Parthiv is a bit short-tempered.
He has the right to be angry.
I did kick the football out of the compound.
He mentioned that…
A--
Go ahead. It's okay.
He said, "A moron kicked the football out of the compound."
He brought me here to yell at you.
So tell me, what are you doing here?
I'm here regarding a project.
But only for three to four months.
Oh!
So, ladies and gentlemen…
We're looking at about 120 plush condos of international standards.
The best environment friendly…
yet aesthetic designs have been selected.
Sorry!
Sorry, I'm late!
Google Maps made me go in circles.
By the time I located the address…
Please join us, Mr. Siddharth.
All the buildings will be green-certified!
The materials used will be considered as one of the criteria.
Whichever firm lands this project…
We expect to work with them on a long-term basis.
Congratulations once again…
on being selected for the shortlist.
We will be kick-starting our first project in Bengaluru.
Followed by Chennai and then Kolkata.
What is it?
You've graduated to wine!
You remember!
I was pregnant when I came to Bengaluru.
Oh!
So, you're my competitor now!
I don't think so.
Anyway, I'm going to land this project.
Overconfidence is injurious to health, bro.
You are going to witness it!
I hope our friendship won't be ruined because of this.
Oh!
I've just learned that we are friends.
In eight years, we've met only twice.
Sometimes…
that's all it takes to know your friends.
Excuse me!
Yeah, RK!
How did the Vishwamithra's meeting go?
That went well.
I have inquired about all the firms in the race.
Skyline Architect in Chennai is our toughest competitor.
Which architect did you say?
Skyline Architect!
That was my boss.
He promised to make me a partner if I got this project.
We do not tolerate this kind of behavior.
Mrs… I mean Ms. Shriya.
Sir…
The other boy must have instigated Parthiv.
Parthiv is a gentle kid.
He has never got into a fight with anyone.
Ms. Shriya, no parent will accept that their kid is at fault.
Something is bothering Parthiv.
At school, this is the best we can do.
Beyond that, as parents, you're responsible.
Parthiv!
What happened?
Okay.
I won't scold you.
I promise!
Tell me, what happened.
Everyone is asking about my father.
My dad was killed while fighting terrorists.
He was a soldier.
Yes! You can ask your question, Kunal.
What was your father's rank?
Kunal, how would I know what rank he scored in school?
Teacher, he's lying.
His father is not a soldier.
Kunal sit down!
- Parthiv! - Parthiv!
How dare you hit me!
- Parthiv! - Parthiv!
You!
- Parthiv! - Parthiv!
Hey! What's happening here?
- Hey, get off him. - Kunal?
- He's the one who started it. - Parthiv, let it go!
Everyone is making fun of me, saying that I'm a test-tube baby.
What is a test-tube baby?
Tell me, Ma!
Why don't I have a father like everyone else?
Test-tube baby means…
You're more special than others.
For example, you know superheroes.
Do you know where they came from?
From the test-tube.
Superheroes have superpowers.
But I don't have any powers.
Of course, you have!
It will come when the time is right.
You go to sleep now.
You have to go to school in the morning.
He's as stubborn as you.
You never listened to anyone and did what you liked.
But your decision…
You never expected it would come back as a three-foot package, and question you.
And to add to the complication…
My neighbor, competitor, and someone I was attracted to when I was pregnant…
I don't know how I am going to avoid him.
What complication?
Why should you avoid him?
I don't want him to get any romantic ideas.
Him? Or you?
I have no interest.
I'm done with men.
It's evident from how you're sneaking and snooping around him.
That you're not interested.
Hey!
What are you doing?
Get down! Get down!
Happy?
Parthiv!
Auntie, where's Parthiv?
He was playing downstairs.
No… He's not in the play area.
Where did he go?
What happened, Shriya?
I looked for him everywhere.
He's nowhere to be found.
I wonder where he went.
I'm terrified.
Oh, God!
Why don't you call your parents?
Did Parthiv come here?
No!
Is there a problem?
I looked for him everywhere.
He's nowhere to be found.
Are you sure?
Did you inform the cops?
I am going to do that now.
One minute!
Since when is he missing?
Only after 6:00 p.m., we realized he was missing.
Hello! Inspector, this is Siddharth speaking.
Yes, we met the other day.
Yeah!
Yes, yes!
There's a problem.
You claim that your son went missing roughly around 6:00 p.m.
- Yes. - What about his father?
I'm a single parent.
You mean divorced?
Yes, sir. No contact.
How do you suggest we organize a search party?
Well, I'll send the force to cover a five-kilometer radius.
Someone may have noticed if it's kidnapping.
Kidnap?
Madam, don't be afraid. We will find your son.
Sir, the CCTV footage shows
- he left the premises around 10:00 a.m. - Shriya.
- Inform the control room. - Hey…
- I'll speak to the AC. - Just breathe!
Okay, sir.
Madam, your ex-husband…
That is the father of your child.
Is there a chance he's taken him away without informing you?
Shriya, you wait in the house.
We will somehow find Parthiv.
Sir, one minute.
Parthiv!
Amma!
It's hurting.
Where?
Your tight hug is hurting me.
Where did you go?
I've told you not to go anywhere without informing me.
He was at the railway station.
Railway station?
Why?
I overheard you and Aunt Ashwini talk,
that my father is in Bengaluru.
He was waiting for the Bengaluru train.
The train came just then.
And we arrived at the station in time before he could board.
If not…
I'm sorry, Parthiv!
Parthiv!
You should listen to your mother.
If you go anywhere without informing us, you'll hear from me!
You should be home by 6:00 p.m.
I will call your mother every day and check.
Understood?
Did you understand or not?!
Thanks!
It's Real Madrid football.
It's your favorite team, right?
What happened?
Adithya refused to take him in his team.
He says Parthiv doesn't know how to play.
And he lies too much.
Why do you want to play with them?
Only if he plays with them and practices,
he will get a chance to be selected for his school football team.
Oh, so you want to be selected for the school team?
Do you know what is a first touch?
Do you want to learn?
Move on, move on
Okay! Let's kick it
I got a couple goals And it's gonna take a minute
I'm steady with the growth And it's nothing to diminish
I got another start So you gotta lemme finish
Hey, game on ready flame on
A beast has awakened in me
Hey, if you lose Just move on
Failures are not wasted It's wind beneath your wings
Whistles will give you high

It's now come down to only the six of you.
Next week, you're all expected to come to Bengaluru for a site visit.
And present your plans.
You'll have dreams That'll not let you sleep
Kalam's words Will echo within you
Keep running Until you reach your victory
The world will celebrate you
Keep playing, mate
Become a Pro, mate…
One year supply of coffee powder. Enjoy!
Determination has made you a Superhero
Okay! Let's kick it
I got a couple goals And it's gonna take a minute
I'm steady with the growth And it's nothing to diminish
I got another start So you gotta lemme finish
You don't know my goals You don't know how I score
Cause I eat up the field And I heat up some more
And I'll soon be on fire You can't run with the torch
So you better catch up Or you about to get scorched
You better get it…
He's posing as if he's a big-shot football player.
- Pass the ball! - Move on, move on
Move on, move on
Okay! Let's kick it
I got a couple goals And it's gonna take a minute
I'm steady with the growth And it's nothing to diminish
I got another start So you gotta lemme finish
I am a superhero!
Hey!
Hi!
Actually…
I'm not married or divorced.
I never got married.
Eight years ago…
through a sperm donor, I underwent IVF treatment to get pregnant.
Wow!
In this community, people assumed I was married and divorced.
A few are always confused about me.
But no one knows the truth.
I felt like sharing it with you.
That's awesome!
That's bold!
But not everyone understands it.
My mother hasn't spoken to me for eight years.
Neither did she visit me.
We can't satisfy everyone.
The important thing is that you followed your heart.
He started asking too many questions about his father.
But after you arrived, he stopped asking.
Parthiv still can't understand these things.
So he spins stories, that his father died in the line of duty.
That is one kind of coping mechanism.
He'll get over it.
Do you know who is the father?
I attempted to find out.
That's when I met you at the Bengaluru club.
- Oh, is it? - Yeah!
But thanks for everything.
Auntie, I'm leaving. I'm getting late for my flight.
Auntie!
You leave for Bengaluru. I'll manage.
No, it's okay. I have informed my Boss.
Moreover, Parthiv is there. How can you look after him?
What happened?
Viral fever!
It's not the end of the world.
Siddharth, please ask her to go to Bengaluru.
It's not a big deal if I didn't go.
You, please sleep and take a rest.
Didn't you mention…
that you're afraid of Siddharth as he's your main competitor.
No matter how much I overdose her, she is not sleeping.
Siddharth, do something and take her to Bengaluru.
I'm going to drive to Bengaluru.
You can come with me.
- Parthiv! - Do you need anything else?
Maybe later.
We'll take him along.
Lavender days
In the still of time
I blossomed
In a heartbeat You captivated me
This magnetic attraction Is creating sparks inside me
Drizzles of dopamine Pierces my heart
In the depths of my heart I struggle for endless nights
This conflict inside me Is burning into an overwhelming love
In the depths of my heart I struggle for endless nights
This conflict inside me Is burning into an overwhelming love
The casting shadows of darkness Enjoys my blushing face
Look out the window The moon travels with us
This is a mystical journey
I am speechless and spellbound My mind is in turmoil
I am like honey, golden And becoming
I am light-headed Shattering to pieces
I am voiceless Yet screaming
Talk to me And end this silence, my love
If this is love, is it a lie
If this is not, is it true?
Love is the genesis of this riddle
Lavender days
Would you utter sweet nothings
Would you add chords to my life?
Free me and put me at ease
Grandpa is an amazing football player, Parthiv.
- Hey, cheers! - State-level player.
- Is it true? - Yes, it's true!
Siddharth is coaching me to get selected for my school team.
Hey, speak with respect.
You're addressing him casually as if he's of your age.
Shriya!
More than looking at the age difference, considering one as a friend is important.
Parthiv, do you know something?
Siddharth could've been a successful football player.
However, due to a leg injury, he couldn't play.
So football is in your blood.
I don't know a thing about sports.
But Parthiv is crazy about football.
Who is it?
Check who's at the door.
What is the surprise?
Come in, I'll show you.
I, too, have a surprise for you.
If you hear me now, I want you to know
Hi, Siddharth!
Hi!
- Oh, no! - Hi!
When did she arrive?
Hi!
Not important. Be quiet!
Hi, Shriya! What a surprise!
When did you arrive?
It's been two days.
Uncle, the weather in Bengaluru is getting hotter by the day.
Shriya, this is Nirupama.
My…
friend!
That's Shriya and Parthiv.
Hi.
Hi, Shriya!
Uncle!
Your Hilsa is still too good!
- Tastes the same! - Thank you.
Yeah!
You know Sid from before?
Briefly!
If you hear me now
How are you, Niru?
I thought you settled down in Mumbai.
I wasn't expecting you.
I moved back to Bengaluru.
Actually, I shouldn't have come unannounced.
I was speaking to Gowda in the morning.
- And he invited me. - She ratted me out!
So that we could surprise you.
Sorry!
I should have informed you.
Hey, it's alright.
It was a pleasant surprise.
Is it?
Into the silent air
One last moment of…
- Why would you? - I am sorry!
Niru called and said she misses you.
You both are single.
I thought if I got you two to meet, something would spark.
But here, there are sparks all over.
When did she come?
You see, she came with me…
And if you hear me now…
"This is my…
friend, Nirupama!"
How else do you expect me to introduce you?
Ex-lover!
Ex-girlfriend.
You could've said, "Ex-would have been wife".
I was just joking!
Gowda said you're still commitment-phobic and single.
Is she?
We are neighbors in Chennai.
We came to Bengaluru for a site visit.
So we decided to travel together.
And if you hear me now…
I, too, have some work in Chennai.
Can I tag along?
I want you to know
I gave everything I could
- Real Madrid! - Look!
Thank you, Grandpa.
My son, you come here during the holidays.
I will teach you football.
Make sure you eat well.
- Okay? - Okay, Grandpa.
Only then you'll have the strength to play football.
Niru said she has some work in Chennai.
She's also coming with us.
Your car. Your girlfriend.
You don't have to explain anything to me.
- She's not my… - No, it's okay.
- The gift I'm going to give you… - …girlfriend.
Is a surprise.
- Hey, thank you. - Call me once you reach Chennai.
Okay, Pa, sure. Bye.
- Bye, Grandpa. - Bye.
Which hotel have you booked?
I've not booked yet.
I thought I could stay with you.
- If you hear me now - Is that okay?
Okay.
I want you to know
I gave everything I could
Before letting go
And if you hear me now
I want you to know
I gave everything I could
Before letting go
I'm whispering your name
Into the silent air
Parthiv's luggage got mixed up.
Before I'm no longer there
And if you hear me now
I want you to know
I gave…
- Everything I could - You can stay in this room.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to…
Actually,
after seeing you old memories came rushing back.
I thought of you all these years.
There are many reasons why I stood you up at the engagement.
And I don't regret it!
We would have separated even if we had married.
I understood when Gowda told me.
That you never married, and have been thinking about me.
Sid, I always loved you!
I want us to try one more time.
Okay!
Fine, you don't say anything.
I'm not expecting you to…
forget everything and take me back.
But for now…
let's just be.
- Yes! - Sid!
Sid! Where is he?
He's taking a shower.
- Sid! - Yeah!
I got selected for the school football team.
Wow, really?
Wait a minute.
Hi!
Move on, move on
- I'm going to tell Mom now. - Okay.
Tomorrow is my birthday party. Don't forget.
Of course, would I forget?
Okay! Let's kick it
I got a couple goals And it's gonna take a minute
I'm steady with the growth And it's nothing to diminish
Congrats!
It's now come down to only the three of you.
Submit your revised costing and specifications in 48 hours.
Based on that…
we will decide who will get this project.
Why are you treating me like an enemy?
It's just a project.
No, no, I'm just tense.
Why? Is this so important to you?
I've given my everything and worked for it.
Are you coming to Parthiv's birthday party?
He mentioned that you're coming.
Of course.
Bring your girlfriend too.
She's not my girlfriend.
Then?
Ex-girlfriend!
Oh!
The runaway bride!
Parthiv! Curve… curve the ball.
Like this!
Come on, try!
Come on, Parthiv.
You can!
Just focus! Don't give up!
Parthiv, come!
Let's go.
Bye, Sid!
Thanks! You're the reason he got selected for the school team.
Hey, no one can play football without talent.
It's all him!
Sid?
Shall we go out tonight?
Today is Parthiv's birthday.
They have invited us.
I'm leaving tomorrow.
Since we arrived, you never spent time with me.
Can't we just wish him and leave?
Sorry, I promised him.
You like Shriya, right?
First, when I had a doubt, I thought you didn't fancy her.
You don't like commitment.
You don't like children.
Then how is it that you like Shriya, a single mother with a kid?
But I've never seen you like this.
The way you look at her.
The way you are with that kid.
You've been this way for many years.
So you may not realize…
that you're in love…
with Shriya!
Only I know…
how you are when you're in love.
Bye, Sid!
- Hello. - Hello, Sid!
We bagged the Vishwamithra project.
What are you saying?
Vishwamithra's Senior VP is my friend.
I got the quotes from our competitor.
I have emailed it to you.
Do a final check, modify it, and send it to them.
And congrats! We got the deal!
As I promised, I'll make you my partner.
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, dear Parthiv
Who is the birthday boy?
Hi, Sid!
Happy Birthday!
Hey, Shriya!
Did you notice Parthiv?
I'm so surprised!
I think it's best, that you marry Sid.
He's the right one for you.
You're acting as if he proposed to me.
He has a girlfriend.
You mean that skinny girl?
Auntie!
Listen, you're unaware…
of the way he looks at you,
the way he speaks to you. That he likes you.
Where's your ex?
She left for Bengaluru.
Oh!
Yeah.
I'd like to use the restroom.
It's going to be a challenge to remove this costume.
You can use my room.
Thanks!
Siddharth!
What are you doing?
Sorry…
I… I didn't mean to.
Is this why you came?
Hey, Shriya!
I'm doing you a favor.
- I'm going to get this project! - Oh…
I…
You think so much of yourself?
Is this why you used Parthiv?
Hey, you are--
Can you please get out?
Please get out of my room!
Congrats, partner!
I just spoke to Shankar.
It looks like the Bengaluru fellow withdrew the proposal at the last minute.
On top of it…
I don't know if he went crazy or what…
he insisted that we should get the project.
Our competitor has recommended us.
How weird?
Auntie, where's Parthiv?
He was playing downstairs.
Didn't you notice?
- Anna, did you see Parthiv? - I did not!
Please check the play area.
Shyam, did you see Parthiv?
I don't know, auntie. I did not see him.
He said there's football practice at school.
Isn't tomorrow the final match?
Yes, Auntie. But I did not see him at school either.
I was cooking. His mother just…
How did you manage to lose your son twice?
Amma!
Shriya!
I'm sorry, dear!
I'm sorry!
Please forgive me.
It's all my fault!
Your son will be found.
- Who are you? - Child's grandma.
Shriya!
Please find my grandson.
Jalaja called your mother and yelled at her.
She got off the high horse only when she knew Parthiv went missing.
She couldn't bear it so she left right away.
Please be strong.
Parthiv will be found.
Nothing will happen to him. Be strong.
- Hello? - This is not the first time.
He went missing before similarly.
What?
Parthiv is in Bengaluru.
Bengaluru?
He's at Siddharth's house.
Siddharth? Who is that?
Let's discuss it after the match.
Love you, Ma!
Thank you.
Sorry!
Thank you.
Thank you!
Thanks to you, I finally quit my job.
Oh, shit!
I'm… I'm so sorry!
You don't understand.
I've been contemplating for eight years to quit my job.
After meeting you, I got the courage.
After meeting me?
You make single parenting look so easy.
Through a sperm donor, you had Parthiv just like that.
To quit my job and start a business of my own…
I've been thinking about it for the past eight years.
So, what have you planned?
I'm going to take a risk.
I'm ready to face anything. I'm going to start my own firm.
When Parthiv arrived at my house, I was leaving for Chennai.
To meet you.
And to meet Parthiv.
I can't be without you both.
I wanted to start my firm, and then come meet you and say it with pride…
that you're my inspiration!
You're my everything!
I love you!
The truth is…
You and Parthiv made me realize what I've been missing in my life.
I will take care of Parthiv like my own son.
No, Parthiv is my son!
I…
I can't be without you and Parthiv anymore.
- Congratulations to you both. - Uncle, please don't scare the child.
Thank you, Uncle. Thank you.
- I'm going over there. Carry on. - Okay, Pa!
Your daughter looks just like you.
Buddy, you did it!
You both took me to the sperm bank and humiliated me.
- Come on, dude. - Don't laugh!
- Do you know what happened? - What?
The sperm bank misplaced our specimens.
I returned to freeze my sperm one more time.
How did they misplace it?
That nurse is capable of it.
You tortured that nurse, remember?
Did you return the USB drive?
How would I know where it is?
Look at the mighty James Padmanaban!
- Who shortened it to P. James. - Shortened it.
- He tortured us with P. James. - Shorten further, remove James.
Now say your name?!
What's so funny?
Shriya, do you know where these buggers took me--
- What is it? - Nothing. He forgot.
- Here you go. - Take it.
Wow!
Are you looking for a partner?
Life partner or business partner?
I can do both!
Do you want to get married?
No!
Sid, go and fetch the ball.
Hey!
Sometimes, unexpected miracles happen in life.
Challenging times can lead to surprisingly good outcomes.
