Arun? - Yeah?
Arun means 'The Sun' right? -Yeah.
And what does Rheya mean?
'A stream of flowing water'!
Hmm.. Interesting!
It is said that life exists in duality.
Like two sides of a coin..
If one is heads, the other is tails.
By the time we decide if it is heads or tails that we want..
...life has other plans.
It's the third dimension between the two,..
...called as 'The Reality'.
No matter how badly reality is **** up, there is a strange silence to it.
*POPULAR SCENE FROM POKIRI*
There you go! Have it!
Bro, you want to see Pandugadu, right? - Yep!
"The one whose blow leaves you numb while your mind's blocked, is Pandugadu!"
This.. is Arun!
He has watched this scene countless number of times...
...wantingly, and even out of compulsion.
And every time he did, his admiration for...
...Mahesh Babu's character only increased but..
...never did he pity the antagonist.
Although he always clapped hard for the lines, he never...
...understood what having his mind blocked, actually meant.
Just like that, in his own movie, if he's the antagonist,..
...his life is the protagonist.
And all his life does is teach him unknown secrets of life...
...by creating circumstances one could never imagine.
For example, if you donâ€™t like Pakodi..
You donâ€™t have a choice!
"No one gets away from life, without having Pakodi, at least once!"
"Who knows who's gonna meet whom?"
"And whose story is first to begin?"
"The hearts that are co-related!"
"The fate that cannot be known!"
"The ties that wonâ€™t leave you.."
"The wonder of not attaining the desired one."
"So many twists and turns in this story.."
"Come, hear my song.."
"Hey Rama Rama, listen Oâ€™ Vema.."
"This delicious mix up is an intoxicating one"
"This confused blend, is a tasty find!"
"And this life resembles it - a hot Pakodi"
Not bad! You still have some time left!
"Does this screen in the dark suffice?"
"Imagine this, my dear audience.."
"Respond to this question of mine!"
"This is like a rainbow prism. Decide what colour..."
Happy Birthday!
"...you shall perceive it with."
"Hey Rama Rama, listen Oâ€™ Vema.."
"This delicious mix up is an intoxicating one"
"This confused blend, is a tasty find!"
"And this life resembles it - a hot Pakodi"
Happy Birthday Arun Thanks ra
You coming to office right?
I'm under stress, want to spend some time alone.
Stressed about Rheya right? I get it!
I'm cutting the call! Bye!
Run for it! - It's a four!
Uncle? Pass me the ball, please?
Who the hell's your uncle?! Call me bro, and I shall pass it!
Bro, ball please.
Bye.. Uncle! - You..!
KC, What is it?
The meeting is about to start, where are you?
I came out to have an ice cream. And if you can put the phone down I can have it.
The Manager is screwing me about your absence,like we are a couple.
I will manage the Manager,But if you donâ€™t hang up before the ice melts,
I will have to murder you with whatâ€™s left ! Bye!
Catch it!
GIVE ME THE BALL! - Nope!
Sorry bro! I'm extremely sorry!
Not that I did it on purpose, right?
Can I have the ball, please?
Fine. Buy me an ice cream and you can have it back.
But I have no money..! -Then you wonâ€™t get the ball back..!
Argh!
If we had money, wouldn't we buy a ball for ourselves?
Why would we be begging you?!
You have a point!
Fine! Let me give you a chance!
I shall bowl and if you hit it for a six, you can have it back.
Aye Siddhu! The very first ball should go for a six!
Bro, the match is happening here, in India..
...and you are bowling in Pakistan.
Been long since I bowled, right?
Watch out for the next one.
You will surely get out!
Howzzaat! - Bangladesh!
Howzzaat! - It's in China!
Thereâ€™s no point rubbing the ball. Just bowl!
Bro, donâ€™t trouble yourself!
Decide the country beforehand and I shall go and stand there by myself!
India!
Bro, I'll ask you one thing. Will you tell us the truth?
Ask away!
You donâ€™t have any girlfriends, do you?
Of course I do. Why do you ask?
Take that! I told you.
If I can have one, won't he have one too?!
You see, we had a bet among us. That you wouldnâ€™t have any!
Why? Do I look like someone who can't have one?!
Couldn't your girlfriend be with you on your birthday?
Had I called her, she would've. But I didnâ€™t.
Why is that?
Because I'm afraid?!
Who is scared of one's own girlfriend?!
Usually, I'm not. But today I'm a bit wary.
And why is that? - That's because..
I'm planning to ask her something, and I'm afraid that she might say no.
Why? What are you planning to ask her?
To marry me! - Ohhh! (In unison)
So what if she says no? Can't you happily marry someone else?
Well.. I guess so!
But I donâ€™t like arranged marriages.
Fine. Fall in love again and get married.
All over again? I have zero patience left!
Did you have a lot of girlfriends?
I did! Keerthi, Anu, Sanjana..
And now.. Rheya.
Did all of them ditch you? - Yep!
But why?
Keerthi!
Arun!
Come!
Come on!
Come on boy!
Keerthi!
I will marry Keerthi.
If Keerthi's not around, who will take care of me?
Daddy will find someone else.
What if she gets married too?
That was how much I liked Keerthi.
No matter who came after her to take care of me..
I would create a ruckus and send them away!
I don't get it. Who was Keerthi?
When parents are busy, isn't there a caretaker for their kids?
She was my nanny!
But in my house, itâ€™s my mother who looks after me.
You're a lucky chap!
Brother, what happened next?
As a kid I never liked girls.
However, I was always surrounded by them.
Tejashri, stand up!
What is the Sun made up of?
Arun, stand up and answer!
Ma'am, Sun is made up of hot gases.
Good!
Show me your drawing!
Yuck! - Show me yours!
Eww!
Good Morning Students!
Whoever didn't bring their books, please stand up!
Next time, you'll be in the Principal's office!
That was her..
Sanjana!
Wow....!
That was my first ever kiss in my life!
Damn it bro! You're lucky!
I don't know why she kissed me!
But it was a million times sweeter than the chocolates I had!
So only, I kissed her, whenever I got a chance!
"Hey! I am right behind you, O' Moonlight"
"When my lips touched yours!"
"Something has changed in me!"
"What caused this transformation? I just can't comprehend!"
"Give me a kiss, just like the last time!"
"Hey! Donâ€™t brush me aside, and go away!"
"I am coming running towards you, in this way!"
"This game is fun, oh girl!"
"Wherever you go.. Wherever you go!"
"This joy is pulling me in your direction"
Oye! Who's there?
Woah! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun!
So? Where did the problem arise?
That was the very problem!
Stop it Arun!
We've to go the lab!
Rani ma'am must be taking attendance by now!
I've been waiting for a year to hear an 'I love you!
I don't think you're ever gonna say, you love me!
Fine! I love you!
But I don't! Bye!
Why? Is my breakup story that funny to you?!
Stories of girls slapping boys are a bit funny to me!
But you're far better! Here he is!
He got slapped without even kissing! - Is that so?
That's okay. It's all an experience!
So.. Tell me who did you find next?
Whatâ€™s there to tell?
With Sanjana, it was first timerâ€™s luck.
After that, those I fell for didnâ€™t like me...
...and those who did, I never liked back!
So, you never got slapped again?
Why not?
In college..
It was Anu!
"O' doll, that paints a vibrant mix of colors!"
"You stole my heart at first glance!"
"O' doll, who provokes me with her eyes, and laughs!"
"You have aroused a sweet pain in me!"
"This unfathomable charm in your magic.."
"...is a new experience that I like!"
"Up on my dreams you have left,..."
"..a mischievous signature,with love!"
"A transforming world.."
"Forming for a celebration of happiness!"
"This elusive time.."
"..Secretively, in loneliness turning into an embrace"
"So many love letters waiting to be conversed in our own language"
"In one glance, we've shared a hundred years"
"Memories run afresh in my heart, when you're in front of my eyes.!"
"Yesterdayâ€™s feelings seem fresh, says my very breath, lovingly"
It seems like a beautiful love story. Why did you break up this time?
Those who donâ€™t experience hardships in life, face it in love.
What happened bro?
Sorry, Arun!
If I have to clear up my fatherâ€™s debts to his friend,..
...this is the only option left for me.
I believe we both are strong!
We should move on!
After that day, along with Anu,..
I also lost the trust I had in love.
Damn it!
Don't worry! If he has a girlfriend now,..
...it means that he's fallen in love again.
Not really!
In Keerthiâ€™s case, I was bound by her affection, but lacked age.
With Sanjana, I had the longing, but lacked patience.
With Anu I had love but no luck!
And in Rheyaâ€™s case, there is a relationship but with no tag to it.
As in? - Umm.. As in!
Although there is no formality of having to meet everyday..
...we still look forward to seeing each other.
There is this limitless freedom to express anything and everything.
...without the condition of commitment.
What else do you need? This sounds great!
Itâ€™s fine long as it lasts but the problem arises...
...when you want every day to last in this way.
As in?
I am too attached to Rheya now,..
...and I wish to marry her!
But like I said, there is no condition of commitment in our relationship.
Damn! Isn't that true? *IN UNISON*
But there is no rule against commitment either, right?!
Damn! Isn't that true too? *IN UNISON*
Bye!

Stop Aman!
Stop it!
Thank you stranger!
That's a nice place!
Do you want to sit here?
No, it's okay! I'll just sit here!
Have I seen you somewhere?
Yep!
On the stairs..?!
You thanked me.. stranger?
Oh!
Oh ya!
Siddhu and I meet at his place only. The guy lives alone!
We call it our coochie coo apartment!
Hi, Siddhu!
Arun meet Rheya! Rheya meet Arun!
Hi!
How do you know Siddhu?
Well, he's my colleague at work!
Ah! Small world! - Yep! Small world.
What small world?
Nothing!
Let's go!
So, Rheya, have you decided about the abortion?
Yeah, Doctor!
Okay, pills would be better than DNC, since it's your first pregnancy!
Let me examine and see you!
Hello, Arun?
Tell me, Rashu? - Rheya and I are in the hospital!
Okay? - Can you please get here urgently?
I'll be there in fifteen minutes!
Okay!
Rheya, did you understand?
Take these pills and follow up next week, okay?
Dr.Bhagya will explain about the rest!
Hi!
Come in!
I'll be back in a second.
I've set up the bed inside!
You can take some rest. I'm getting a bit late!
I have to rush to office!
If there's anything, give me a call!
Okay. Thank you! Bye.
Take rest okay? - Yeah!
I don't want to thank you!
Because we're no more strangers!
- Rheya!
"This is how the journey began.."
Hey, Arun! I can't anymore..
What's your problem?! - Our life's a waste!
Not our lives, just yours.
Your life is a waste of time!.
You watch me, before this month ends.. - Before this month ends?
I'll also get myself a girlfriend!
You can do that later; for now, go get some cigarettes.
Not for cigarettes! I'm going home!
Arun?
Where's KC?
He left for his home, just now!
Ah!
Tarantino fan, eh?
Yep!
This one is like my mind; and that one is state of my mind.
Arun..
These two posters, I can understand.
But why this one in the Center?
Just like that I guess..!
May be.. She's like my girl?!
Thanks!
Why?
'Cause I'm taking your girl home!
What? No way! - Yes way!
Okay! Fine! As you wish!
Thank you!
What the **** are you guys doing?
What?!
You're taking away the poster?!
Arun.. I'm telling you!
She's gonna rob everything in your house. Very soon!
Shut up Rashu! Arun, don't listen to her!
I'm a nice girl!
Okay, let's go then!
See you, dude! - See ya!
Bye!
Bye! See you!
Hello!
That's your mind!
That's your state of mind!
And this is you!
See! Now it makes more sense!
"This dream like twist.."
"Has it finally met its story?"
"This moment.."
"..like a kick start."
"..has it propelled us?"
"As the rope of distance gets shorter.."
"Silence begins to croon."
'Driven by such playfulness, Time has been forgotten.."
"With friendship climbing up the ladder, roars in laughter!"
"Our feet proceeds in this direction.."
"...of the place where beautiful mischief is woven."
"The nature is a witness to this moment!'
"The fresh breath of life makes this signature."
"In this voyage,."
"..which direction did we head to?"
"Clearly, we don't remember!"
Someone's so busy that their phone's switched off, right?
"In our meanderings, where did the feet land?"
"Clearly, we don't remember!"
My dad left us for another women
Arun?
Where are your parents?
They're no more!
I'm sorry!
"Those of you lucky enough to still have your lives, take them with you!"
"However..."
"...leave the limbs you've lost."
"Except you, Sofie!"
"You stay right where you are."
"Silly Caucasian girl likes to play with samurai swords."
"Attack me.."
"...with everything you have."
"That really.."
"..was a Hattori Hanzo sword."
Hi Rheya! - Hi!
You know what?
I got a job! - Congratulations!
Thank you!
Listen? I need to talk.
About what? - About what happened?!
Last night!
Take it easy!
Let's meet! - Okay!
When? - Now!
Okay! Come to Aroma.
Rheya! - Arun!
Rheya!
Look Arun!
What happened that day was great..
...and I thank you for that!
I feel a lot better.
But I haven't thought anything beyond that!
This relationship commitment crap is not for me!
Thank God! Can't agree more with you!
I'm so relieved!
This is exactly what I wanted to say!
So..?
No Commitments! No Bullshit! - Let's keep it simple!
Do you want some Pakodi? - Nah! I have a Samosa.
Dude! My marriage has been fixed.
You also get married. We can settle down together.
What next? Let's go the loo together, let's shower together! let's have..
..our wedding night together, have babies together and wipe their asses together!
Is that enough? Or do you want more?
Go on! Tell me!
Let's discuss it once and for all! Plan it all with your wife!
What's with all this settling down bullshit?!
What are we? Trees to stay rooted?!
Here I'm planning to be free, without any expectations...
...or any of that shit, and live the way I have it with Rheya now,..
... and here you are, planning to ruin me with your..
... 'marry and settle down' bullshit theory!
Can you please...? Shut the... up?!
Sir, the bar's closing. Any last orders?
I'm terribly dehydrated, can I get some fruit juice?
Shucks! Look at yourself!
Why not ask for milk?
Well.. it'll help me detox, right?
What else are your kidneys and liver for?
Get us two beers!
Hey! You're crazy drunk already, you should stop!
I take back my suggestions.
Marriage is the right thing for you!
You're a wastrel! Go get married!
Hello? - Hello, Arun?
Are you busy?
Not at all. I'm free now!
Can you please pick me up from my place?
Yeah, sure! I'll be there in ten minutes!
I'll see you! - Bye!
Was that Rheya? - Yep!
And what about me?! - You are on your own!
You Mothe#$%^@*&!
Hello? - Hello Arun. Don't come!
But why?
This cute guy from office is pestering me for some drinks!
I'm going out with him now! Okay, bye!
Hi KC, where are you?
Tell me!
Do you think I'm that friend who dumps his bestie for a girl?!
Yes!
*CRIES OF VICTORY!*
Chilled beer and Cricket!
Killer combination!
Whoever devised the plan of sending one's wife to her parentsâ€™ home...
...deserves to be garlanded and worshipped.
He is the true Lord!
Dear KC? - Hmm?
How is your married life?
Are you happy?
Yeah. I'm happy..
Are you?
Donâ€™t you make me doubt it now..!
So, you're not happy then?
I don't know!
What do you mean?
This is how curiosity can ruin things!
This is a clear sign that your time is here!
Get married before your curiosity makes way for doubts!
Else by the time you gather your balls to marry Rheya,..
...they won't be functioning! You'll be out!
True that!
Repeat the order! I'll have one more!
She's already had four large shots!
She's chugging them like water!
And she's asking for more! - Really?
What's up Rashmi? - Rheya?!
Come to 'The Colony!' - When? Now?
RIGHT NOW! - No way!
Are you already drunk at this hour?
Your last drink before I jump! - JUMP?!
Have you gone mad or what?
I'm serious!
Okay. I'll be there! - Anything else, ma'am?
It's a damn good song man!
Is there no freedom to even sing in this country?!
What? I can't smoke?
Rheya!
What are you moaning about?
Will you tell me or I am leaving right now!
I.. I am!
Pregnant?
That would have been much better!
What do you mean?
I asked Siddhu that we'll get married!
That **** says that he doesn't want to!
Maybe he needs a little more time.
Nope!
Apparently, he never wants to get married at all!
How sensible!
If itâ€™s marriage that you want, then go find someone...
...who's looking for a marriage, in the market!
Don't force someone who doesn't want to get married!
What crap!
Then what's the point of being in love?
Maybe Siddhu does love you, he just doesn't want to get married!
Why can't you respect that?
I am not as broad minded as you are!
**** that broad minded shit!
I know you fear losing him, and want to lock him down in a marriage!
Huh?
Shut up Rashu!
If ever you get into my situation, you'll know what it feels like!
Woah! Slow down!
Forget what it feels like, I haven't thought of anything close!
Okay! Not you!
What if Arun..?
If ever such a situation arises, Arun will be the first one to bail out.
We like each other, because we donâ€™t have these complications!
But what if..? - What if the sky falls?
What if the world ends? All these are all senseless doubts!
Order me some drinks first!
Or else, you wanted to jump, right? Go jump!
Do whatever you want! But don't bug the hell out of me!
But, I really really want to get married!
Tell me, ****! What do I do?
It's very simple!
Think selfish!
Be happy! That is all!
Now don't ask me how to be happy!
Marry and live with a stranger,..
Or be with Siddhu but remain unmarried!
You figure it out.
I should be happy, right?
You know what?
**** Siddhu!
**** guys!
Let's get married!
Sir, we're getting married!
Congratulations 'ma'ams!'
Dude, an intelligent person learns from others' mistakes!
Listen to me! Say no to marriage!
Hear me out! Sell the ring and take off...
...to the Himalayas until you gain clarity!
Otherwise, I'm telling you, you're doomed!
Fine! Let it go!
So what plans for today? Let's party?
No! I have other plans!
Whatâ€™s the big plan?
To propose Rheya with the ring, right?!
Look! A disaster may be postponed but never a party.
Go and get your wife's permission first; then ask for a party!
If there's no party, I'll curse you with rejection!
Rheya!
Shhh! Play the song!
*POPULAR SONG FROM GHARSHANA*
What?
Oh my God Arun! This is amazing!
I don't see any wine here!
How do you forget that mister?
Let me light that!
So..?
Do you hear that?
What?
Listen!
'Something.. Happens in me!"
Why are you singing this song now?
I don't know, Arun!
I really heard it! Like a background score.
Rheya! What are you saying?
How is the ring?
It's okay. It doesn't suit you!
Hello? It's for you!
For me?
Why suddenly?
Rheya..
Please marry me!
Hello, Shah Rukh Khan!
Enough with your overacting! Get up!
What a knee jerker?!
You know what? Maybe you shouldn't have had that joint!
Will you get up or not?
Listen..
I like you, you know that!
Then what's the issue?
I don't know, I didn't expect this!
What happened to you all of a sudden?
We agreed we won't have any commitments, right?
Rheya!
I just wanted to pour my heart out to you.
I did. That's all!
If you're not up to it, you can tell me that! It's okay!
How can you say it so simply?
You're talking about marriage, Arun!
You're asking as if you were asking me out for a movie.
You know what? I don't know want to say.
I don't know what to think either!
Okay, calm down! - What do you mean?
Do you know, your one question has given rise to so many doubts in my mind?
Questions I've been avoiding for a long time!
Rheya, just because we smoked up, you're thinking too much!
You think I'm thinking too much?
For instance..
What will happen to Amma if we get married?
What will happen?
We'll all live together. - I don't want that!
What do you mean I don't want that?
Arun.. before I get married..
If at all I'm going to..
I want my Mom to settle down with a nice man!
Settle down?!
As in?
As in, I want her to settle down with a nice man!
You want to get her married?
Yeah, why not?
Arun..
Amma divorced dad because he was having an affair with someone!
She was very depressed after that!
For now, I am everything to her.
If I'm here with you now, I know how much she'll be missing meâ€¦
See..
This kind of dependency is frankly a little too much for me!
If only she had a life of her own, a man in her lifeâ€¦
I would be free.
Free to travel, free to marry and all that!
But I can't do that having her on my mind. Always!
You know what I'm saying?
So..?
Until your Mom gets married, neither will you?!
Forget it! You won't understand.
And I don't expect you to, either!
If you had your parents, you would know..
I have my father!
What?
You have a father?
You said your parents were no more!
Yeah!
I'm sorry!
Amma passed away. But Dad's alive!
But he's not worth talking about!
What do you mean?
My Mom passed away a few years ago!
I guess that's what gave him the shock of his life!
At least that's what I thought so when he fell sick!
Shit! Then?
My career had just begun!
I didn't want to sit at home!
I appointed him a nurse since he was sick.
Okay..
Then one day, I had forgotten something at home.
And..
I had to go back!
I just wanted to check if he was fine!
I opened the bedroom door..
Unable to fathom what I saw inside,..
I closed the door and ran away!
Why?
What do you mean why? Can't you guess?
He was making out with the nurse?!
Yeah!
He was making out with the nurse!
Hmmm! So?
Shut up, Rheya! What do you mean by so?
I couldn't take that, you know?
I always thought my parents were the most loving people in the world!
I just left a letter on how I felt!
He tried to call me once!
I didn't pick his call.
I left the house for good!
He's no more there for me!
Shit man! How ironic?!
You know what?
I feel..
Even if things work out, a commitment as huge as marriage, isn't right for us!
Where is all of this coming from?
What else?!
Tell me if this is not hypocrisy, what is?
You can have a girlfriend for yourself..
You can **** around and enjoy your life to the fullest!
But you want your father to sit around chanting â€˜Krishnaâ€™ â€˜Ramaâ€™..
...and watch you build your family for the rest of his life, right?
What else does one need at that age?
Arun!
Tell me this..
How do you know what it is like being his age?
Are you of his age now?
It's easy to ask logical questions.
You'll know the reality only when it hits you hard.
To ensure that reality doesn't 'hit me hard,'..
My mother has never hidden anything from me.
And even if she sleeps with someone, I don't have to find unlike you did!
You know what, Arun? I think we're rushing here!
There is no guarantee that a person who judged his own father...
...unfairly, would not do the same with my mother.
I have to leave now!
Let me drop you!
No! I booked an Ola!
Why do we need this complication right now?
Think about it!
But don't think too much also!
Look at how much hair you're losing!
I'll see you later. Bye!
Arun, seeing you in this situation I'm not...
...sure whether I should pity or laugh at you.
You left home 'cause you found your father with a nurse, and..
...she wonâ€™t leave her home until her mother gets married again!
I was looking at marriage differently, and this is something else altogether!
Donâ€™t you think, life is telling you something?
Stay single and happy! After all, what do you..
...even gain from a marriage other than a paunch?
Who gave these beautiful flowers to this beauty? Huh?
Who will give me anything?
I bought them for myself.
I doubt that.
You would doubt me?
Look here!
What is it?
Ask anyone in five km radius as to who's the most..
...beautiful woman around, and they'll all name you.
What's new about it? It's obvious!
Look at that confidence!
Amma, Arun proposed to me â€“ with a ring!
Wow!
This is some news!
Did you say yes to him?
You must be kidding!
I have no clue where he suddenly got the idea from!
Just yesterday I told Rashmi that Arun's not the marriage type!
On the same day, he decides to get a ring!
So.. What did you tell him?
As I didn't see it coming, I didnâ€™t tell him anything clearly.
Poor chap! What did you tell him?
He's not the poor one, you are!
What? Me?
What did you tell him? You chimp!
Told him, that I'll first get my Mom married and then give us a thought.
Sorry, Mom!
Gosh!
I'm sorry!
Am I not apologizing?
Rheya!
I'm in love with someone!
And we're thinking of getting married!
What?
****
Oops!
Sorry!
Arun?!
How are you Arun?
Work? Life?
Fine dad!
And you?
Going all right.
Actually, I'm good!
Dad, I'm sorry!
Some tea?
Arun, have your tea!
How's it?
It's really good!
Very nice, Dad!
I shouldn't have judged you!
Arun..
If I was in your position, maybe I would have done the same thing!
I don't want to sound ignorant or innocent!
On that day, I exactly knew what I was doing!
I didn't think of the repercussions then, because I didn't have you in my mind then!
But dad, you need not explain!
I don't.
But you still need to know this, Arun!
After your mother passed away..
I didnâ€™t know how to handle this situation.
I didn't know how to handle myself!
After you left, I found the time to think about everything.
And I think, I needed that time!
That is why I did not stop you that day.
And I think..
That was the right time to let you fly!
I was very angry!
I built a wall!
I couldnâ€™t share my sorrow with anyone else.
I used to struggle a lot inside! All by myself!
It took me seven years to find someone!
With whom I could share this!
Girlfriend?
Yep!
She was the one who broke the wall!
She's the reason that I'm here!
I'm very happy for you!
Dad, I want to introduce her to you!
I want to marry her!
It's the right time for you.
Dad, I've got to go now!
Stay back, Arun!
It's been a long time!
Let's at least go for lunch?
We'll do it the next time!
I need to go now!
I always knew you would come back!
"Today, the path takes a new direction!"
"While the silence sings.."
"Emptiness has laughed."
"O' Time,.."
"O' Happiness!"
"The root has met its branch!"
"In this moment I float within myself!"
"This ease is magic!"
"All these days something that was lacking..."
"Has been fulfilled today."
Rheya baby!
What's up beauty? Are you feeling low?
Why are you so high?
All because of you!
Because of me?
Remember your advice from the other day?
To keep it simple and be happy?
Just do what makes you happy. To choose Siddhu or Marriage!
Yeah! So what did you figure out?
You know me right? Guess it!
What else? You would've chosen Siddhu!
Nope! Marriage!
You're kidding me, right?
Nope!
I am getting married to Karthik. He's the son of dadâ€™s friend.
Then Siddhu?
I broke up with him!
What? - Yeah!
Rashu, you're sure about this right?
Of course. Yes, I'm sure!
But, you were happy with Siddhu.
You were happy, right?
I was. But he didn't want to marry me!
What's the point?
You mean to say..
That marriage is so important for you, Rashmi?
Of course, yes!
Thereâ€™s security in marriage.
Good or bad! There'll be stability in your life.
What if you're not happy with this person?
What's the guarantee that I'll be happy with Siddhu all my life?
If you canâ€™t be happy with someone you were happy with for four years,
Who else will you be happy with?
So, what do you think?
Is my decision wrong?
I don't know.
Maybe I haven't made enough mistakes to judge you right or wrong!
As in?
There's so much that we don't know about ourselves...
When we ourselves donâ€™t know how to handle it..
And when we're in such a phase, what can we advice anyone?
Rheya!
Dinner's ready
I'm hungry!
Shall we eat?
Are you angry with Mommy? - Nope!
I know you're angry.
Itâ€™s not anger.
What is it then?
Confusions!
Full of confusions!
I don't know where to start or how to start.
I don't know what's happening or what I'm supposed to do!
Fine.
Tell me one thing.
Are your confused for yourself or for me?
To be honest.
They're about me, but only because of you.
Rheya!
Can you please be a little clear?
Please?
Amma, I don't know what to say!
Arun is expecting me to say yes to marriage!
Do you love him? - Of course I do.
Or maybe I don't.
Rheya?!
Amma!
You divorced dad for a reason.
Well.. it took me sometime to come to terms with that!
To accept that and not question it anymore.
I'm glad you want to talk about something you've been avoiding.
I'm really confused, Amma!
You both fell in love.
Got married.
Then you got divorced!
Then what is love even?
What is marriage?
Why divorce then?
I donâ€™t know what love or marriage is anymore.
Meanwhile, Arun armed with his ring in his...
...pocket, takes every chance to propose marriage.
And frankly, I've never thought of marriage.
Fine!
And I thought if I shared this with you,..
...you would help me handle this better.
Instead, you tell me that you are in love and want to marry.
Again?!
My dear, am sorry!
Again?
Sorry not for falling in love or wanting to marry!
Sorry for the wrong timing.
I always thought that todayâ€™s generation had better clarity than ours...
But I see now that where love and marriage are concerned,..
...these issues affect all generations the same way.
And moreover..
When parentsâ€™ relationship itself is complicated,
...it becomes harder.
You have a good reason to be confused!
Rheya!
I'll try to explain it in simple terms, I hope you understand it!
When we like someone immensely,..
..we think we love that person.
Do you agree? - Yeah!
And if that person we love, loves you back, that is love.
And if you continue to love that person, that is marriage.
That's why..
A marriage might happen without love.
Without love in between a couple, a marriage won't last!
That is when it leads to divorce!
If Arun has asked you to marry him, he means to say..
..let's continue loving each other. That is all.
If you understand what it means, you know what to do!
Have you ordered any food?
Yeah! Your head!
Ma'am placed an order, sir!
Okay fine! Get me some chilled beer please!
Okay, sure! - One more, please!
Why are you upset?
What did I do?
Why shouldn't I be upset?
And why should it necessarily be about you?
As if I should be upset only because you!
What happened?
Nothing!
Okay..
I met my father!
If only this can get you of your 'mood'!
Rheya!
Don't you want to know anything about this?
Oh yeah! Who's he sleeping with this time?
Sorry!
I was confused and upset about myself! I'm sorry!
Arun..
Do you know me?
I guess I do!
I donâ€™t know myself well enough, what the **** do you know about me?
Rheya!
Are you going to beat around the bush or get to the point?
My Mom is in love with another man, and they're planning to get married!
What?
Wow!
Okay..
That must have pleased you.
That's what you wanted, right? Didn't you?
Yes!
I don't know!
I don't know. I'm freaking confused!
I have to pee!
Me too!
Enjoy your food!
Thankyou! You are welcome!
Do you have the ring?
Do you? - I do!
Right here? Now? - YEAH!
Show me?
Give me!
Here? You mean now?
Yeah! Right now!
Give it!
Get up! At the drop of a hat, you turn into Shah Rukh Khan!
It's enough if you hand it over normally!
I don't want it. Keep it.
I will ask for it if I want it.
Rheya!
Leave my hand, I have to go! - No. I won't!
Rheya, enough is enough. Leave my hand, I have to go!
No. Who will pay the bill?
What now?
Do I have to accept the silly ring in order to marry you?
Even the ring doesn't look good!
Why should I even marry you?
Until yesterday you were this cool dude!
"Marriage and I?"
You were going on with your, "No way! No bullshit" lines!
And now, suddenly, you're ready for marriage?
Not once have you professed me your love with an 'I love you'..
And one fine day, there's a ring, 'marry me' and all that?
Come on, Rheya!
Haven't I told you that I love you?
How many times have I told you that?
I'm not asking you for the â€˜love you babyâ€™ you utter during the climax of our ***.
Proper.. Formal proposal!
Tell me when have you done it?
Fine!
Okay. I never expected it!
But that's why I saw that our relationship was all the more special!
The words were necessarily not important.
And suddenly, one night, you come up with this proposal and ruin everything!
And frankly, I'm not impressed!
Not impressed at all!
Not with your proposal and not with the way you proposed!
Why should I try to impress you when I am already proposing?
And how should I do it? You donâ€™t like it if I am romantic about it.
You call that romantic?! Nu-uh!
That wasn't romantic but it's called 'being filmy'!
I don't want filmy! I don't want romantic!
How then? Should I perform gymnastics?!
I don't care!
Do anything, but do it honestly!
Tell me!
In your view, what is marriage?
What is love?
And more than anything else, what is life?
And why do you want me all your life?
Go on! Tell me!
Why should I sleep with you all my life?
I don't know!
I donâ€™t know any of that.
Rheya, donâ€™t ask me what life is.
One who has understood it might have written a book or made a film on it.
I'll read that book with you.
I'll watch that film with you.
Because to me that is all life is!
I donâ€™t know what love is!
If you Google it, you might find plenty of definitions.
You pick the one you like the most.
I will go with it. Because I love you!
And in no way do I know what marriage is!
Some say get married! Others ask me not to!
Some call it a commitment, others call it a responsibility.
Some call it kheer, others call it beer.
But all I know is just one thing!
With you even if life is bitter it will seem chilled.
Even if it is only a nibble, it tastes sweet!
Even if it's dark, I find courage!
I don't know if there's a tomorrow but today feels just right with you!
I believe that!
Whether you have the same faith or not, please marry me.
Because without you there may be a life..
But there won't be any high in it!
"Like a running river, is my heart!"
"Dreams transformed into waves, delighted in this way"
"Illuminated raindrops fell this way.."
"The longing being thus quenched, bloomed in this way"
"Like the melody of the speaking wind."
"Like the happy mischief of the waves."
"The run asked the feet in this way"
"By each becoming half should carry on forever"
"This moment here.."
"Is a living dream"
"These feet move"
"Like rushing waves!"
"The story told melodiously by the voice of youth"
"The time and playfulness that is shared forever"
"The heart searches for such moments in this way!"
"Love and voyage are the same"
"Whichever direction your footsteps take.."
"Will now encounter love!"
"Becoming one in my loneliness"
"Happiness is mine every minute "
"This time like this"
"Is a living dream"
"These feet move"
"Like rushing waves"
Rheya? - Hmm?
Where is your Arun? I'm hungry!
Even I'm feeling damn hungry ma. Let me just call him?
Hello? - Where are you man?
I'm on my way. Almost there!
Okay, please come soon! I'm really hungry!
Okay. I'll be there. - Okay, bye!
Mom, he'll take another five minutes. Shall we order?
No, I think we'll wait!
Mom, I'll just go to the wash room and come!
Mom, presenting Arun!
Arun meet Amma!
This special rose is for you! - How sweet!
And this is for you!
Oh! What's all this? Trying to butter me huh?!
Think what you want to!
Okay. I'm damn hungry. Can we order food?
So.. One Achari tikka and one French fries. And?
One medium Margherita pizza!
A medium Margherita pizza would be too small for the three of you.
Can I make it a large one? - Yeah, sure!
But please get the starters ASAP.
We're damn hungry!
So.. Arun!
You better know what you're getting into!
She is a difficult girl!
A devil that she is!
I know Aunty! - He knows it really well!
"The person you're trying to reach, isn't answering your call!'
Girls! Meet my dad!
Ram Verma!
Dad?! Say Hi!
Hi!
What?
Is Arun your son, Ram?
You guys know each other?
Ya. Somewhat..
So your boyfriend Ram is...?
Wait a minute!
I don't get it!
Arun!
That's okay, Uncle. Let me make your job easy!
Rheya! - Shhh!
Mr.Arun. Listen carefully!
I don't think I want to repeat this again!
Your dad Mr.Ram Verma..
Is my Mom Veena's boyfriend, Ram!
What the ****!
So.. Four Tequilas, four Vodkas and four Scotch?!
Large please!
Certainly!
Now that sir has joined, would you like to go for a family pizza?
*POPULAR SCENE FROM POKIRI*
"The one whose blow leaves you numb while your mind's blocked, is Pandugadu!"
Ley Arun! When are you getting married?
****
Dude, you know what?
If someone has to make a movie on your story..
The title should be..
'Ek Choti Si Incest Story' A small insane story!
Mom!
Not to create a rift! But..
Do you know your boyfriend made out with a nurse after Arun's Mom passed away?
Haan! I know
With the same concern..
Do you know Arun had *** at sixteen with a neighbour aunty?
What?!
Just asking!
So what if he had *** at sixteen?
It's not a BIG crime, is it?
Really?
And what Ram did was a crime?
Right?
Amma!
You divorced dad because he was having a **** affair with someone!
We got divorced..
Because there was no love left between us!
And his affair started, long after we realised that!
Rheya!
Your father started an affair outside and managed to keep our marriage going
When I couldn't live in that marriage anymore, Ram came into my life!
Divorce.. was just a logical end!
Arun.. you had *** with an aunty?
No!
Who told you that?
Shut up, Arun! With an aunty?
Yuck! I'm breaking up with you right here!
Rheya! Please! Listen? Stop!
I'm listening!
Are there any more unpalatable truths I donâ€™t know about?!
What?
Is there more?
Forget it!
Rheya! Just one more!
Tell me!
My name is 'P' Arun Verma!
My dad's name is 'P' Ram Verma!
So?
P stands for Pakodi?!
What?
I could have lived with anything in this damn world, Arun!
But not with Pakodi!!!
You don't have to change your last name, Rheya!
Driver?!
Pakodi has a good history!
I can explain!
Anyway, couldnâ€™t your family come up with a better surname?!
Pakodi was all they found?!
And you are no less unreasonable. You are taking out..
...out your frustration with name on Pakodi.
If someone is chenakkayala Naga Babu, will he never eat groundnuts?
Does Deepika (To sleep), not sleep at all?
Just 'cause one's named Jayaprakash Gali (Air), does it mean they don't breathe?
I know, when one is hungry you eat what...
...are given â€“ be it chicken or Pakodi.
I have learnt this already!
I don't think Rheya has a choice too!
I don't want them to sacrifice and all that shit!
I don't think they are!
Let's go watch some movie!
Shut up! Let's make love!
Okay!
Hello Rashu? - Where are you guys?
We'll be there in ten minutes!
Okay. They'll be here in five!
Who's Arun and Rheya?
They're calling you in!
Let's go inside!
Shall we go?
What? Are you tensed?
Yeah!
Why?
I don't know, Arun. Something doesn't feel right!
I'm sorry, Arun!
So you don't want this?
Arun?
Please say something!
Is it because of our parents?
No! I'm cool with that!
Then what is it?
It's simple, Rheya!
If you donâ€™t want it, I donâ€™t either.
Arun, I'm scared!
Scared of what?
Scared of marriage! - But why?
Because I don't really get what it's about!
Why do we have to come here and sign?!
Whose permission are we seeking?
And what difference will it make from how we...
...were yesterday, to how we'll be tomorrow!
Nothing! - Then why?
Rheya!
This is just a formality!
An announcement we're making to everyone that we're together. That is all!
Arun I'd rather have the both of us..
And no one else, sit in our balcony and announce...
...to each other what and how, we're going to be!
You make a list of what you expect from me!
I'll also make one!
Let's talk, fight, shout, cry, laugh over this...
...list not just one day, but whenever we want to!
Let's rewrite it whenever we want to!
Let's not just get married one day by signing...
...some document and take each other for granted!
Let's get married whenever we want to!
In our own way!
Let's live like that with freedom!
Not compulsion!
With love!
Not illusion!
As long as we can honestly!
And at the end..
Whenever it is.. Let's call that marriage!
All the time we spend together, let's call that marriage!
And at the end..
End of love, End of companionship, End of..
..boredom, End of life, End of whatever..
At the end.. Let's announce to everyone that the life we lived together!
That.. we called marriage!
Makes sense!
So this.. is my story.
I understand Rheya's feelings!
I respect and connect with them!
But practically when we are living in a society, I clearly...
...understand why a typical marriage is conducted for!
I don't know if Rheya will ever get that point at all!
I don't have to educate or force her too either!
There maybe a time in the course of her life..
Where she'll get the practical reason behind signing in the registered office!
I guess I'll wait for her Pakodi moment!
Or rather, I should say..
Our Pakodi moment!
