Did you eat last night? Yes, why? Don’t lie because there was no food left and the kitchen was also locked, so tell me honestly did you eat or you didn’t? No why? What do you mean by why? Hun. You said it yourself you will steal and eat, you did say it, right? You think my faith is so weak I will steal for just a night’s meal. You said you have a habit Yes, I did, a habit is a habit but not of stealing but going to sleep hungry. And I have good practice of it. So that means you slept hungry because of me last night? Yes, so? But why? What why? Dude, food, blanket and all this? Why are you doing this? What is the reason? Because a poor understands a poor. Isn’t that reason enough? Okay it means you are feeling pity for me? Oh hello? There is no need to be ashamed in front of me. If it was you in my place, you would have done the same. Me too? Yes, why not? Now you tell me if I have to come to your house due to something ever, will you leave me hungry and shivering in the cold between so many people? No, right? Really? So, are you certain about it? In helplessness, certainty is the only weapon, that every helpless person should have. Get it? Now there is no need to put so much strain on your little brain, I will bring you breakfast when it is ready. And what do you need from me in return? Pictures. Pictures? Yes, though they will tell you which guest is special but still, you have to take my pictures the most. Please. Okay, it means I will have to repay for these favours? Exactly. Repay what? Hey, didn’t you tell her? She was telling me whose pictures to take and whose I shouldn’t. Sitara? Hey, Nimi, yes, we need to tell them. You do know how these photographers are, they click pictures of unimportant people and then they put them in the albums and charge money for it, that is why I was telling him. Okay, Mom is looking for you everywhere. Go, go, go, go. Don’t mind what she says, she is a little psycho. Hunh? A little? Yes, a little. Actually, she doesn’t know your status so she just says anything. He left. Hey Mom, why do you worry? I have ironed your clothes. Mom? Mom? What happened? look at this. They were lying at the bottom-most. Oh ho, All the clothes are messed up. Kiran, will you iron it? You do know I burn them so… I will ask Nimi to do it. You are useless. Sister-in-law, will Ehtisham go to the henna as well? Sister-in-law, Musarrat didn’t say anything like that. Yeah, so take him, everyone goes nowadays. Yes, you are right but it doesn’t seem nice to be going without informing them. So what’s the big deal? Inform them now, he is their to-be son-in-law, we can take him. They won’t refuse. Yes, that would be fine. I will go with the flower jewellery over there in a bit so I will inform them. Yes. Sister-in-law, I will also come, I will get to see the bride this way. Aunt? Aunt? Hey, what’s so bad that has happened? -Why are you screaming? -Look at this, look, all my bangles have broken. Hey how did they break? Hey, how did they break? What do I know? Someone must have sat on my bag and broke all my bangles. I also told you to keep the bangles safely first. Now that they are broken, they are broken, wear the ones that are left. Hey. What do you mean by wear what are left? My nieces won’t wear any such things, in fact, I am telling you all should look better than the girl’s side of the family at the wedding. Exactly, no one attends a wedding without bangles now, there is not a single bangle left in it. Okay, why do you worry? I will ask Salman to take you guys to the market, buy new bangles, okay? Thank you. I will also bring my shawl, I need to get laces for it. Yes, yes, okay, do whatever you all want to do but first of all go iron your clothes before leaving, there is no guarantee there will be light. The situation of the light is beyond my understanding. Did you guys iron your clothes? What? You got to be kidding me, dude. Are you serious? Potato and meat and you ate it at night? Wow. Yeah dude. By the way, how do you feel eating potatoes and meat on the Hyderabad tour? It felt nice. Wait a minute, what did I just hear? Did you like it? Not feeling bad is also a good feeling, Junaid. What is this philosophy by the way? This is not a philosophy bro, it’s true. Your truth isn’t potato and meat Salar, in fact, you are habitual of luxuries. Listen, bro, do you even know what luxuries mean to me? I can very well imagine what luxuries are for you. A big palatial house, loads of cash, and big cars of course. No, no, no, that’s what it means to you but luxury for me means freedom. Freedom from what dude? Freedom from boundaries, social and emotional pressure and all that stuff. And you are getting this freedom in a small house in Hyderabad? Hey, I don’t have restrictions like my home here. Salar, had it been someone else in your place, they would have considered these restrictions to be their good fortune. No, brother, this is not called being fortunate. Ok So then who is fortunate? Being fortunate doesn’t mean a person should have a very big house, expensive clothes and cars, fortunate is the one who is happy in his small house in the clothes that he wears by his choice, there shouldn’t be anyone to restrict him. Hello? Where did you go? Nowhere, I am here. Anyway, leave that, tell me when will you come back? I won’t. Hey, when will you come back from Canada? I said I won’t come. If you are saying that because of the marriage then forget everything. I can’t forget anything. Anyway, I will hang up now, Salman will be here I think he has some work. Salar, please get out of this Salman’s trap first, you know how mean he is, he will destroy you one day. You know it’s so strange, it feels like you are speaking Mom’s language. Because she is not wrong about him, he is very greedy and he is only and only using you. Yes, I know everything, I am not dumb. But still. Okay, listen, he is here, I will hang up now, okay bye. Okay, bye. Yes, brother, what is the scene? About what? About what you are wearing tonight? I don’t know I will wear anything, why? Uh, do you remember you are poor, right? Yeah, right. Okay listen to me, we are here now so my family cannot trace me now. So? So then tell everyone the truth. What truth? That I am not some photographer. Yes, yes, yes I was thinking the same. Anyway, can I get your blue shirt just for a day? For a day? You keep it, dude. What do you think I will wear your used clothes? Hun Uh exactly, anyway we are going to the market, do you need anything? No, I am here, I need some peace of mind, okay? It’s all yours. Go. Bye, I will be back in a while. Where? Dad has called me. Umm, what are you made up of? Why? What happened? Even after hearing so much about your relatives, you are going running to Dad just on one call? Why? About my relatives? Did he say anything? Don’t pretend! You heard everything. I don’t know I heard and already forgot it, I don’t remember what he said. Why do you do this, Junaid? Because he is your Dad. So does he have a right to insult you? Saba, he didn’t insult me, he just shared his point of view. And his point of view about you doesn’t make any difference to you? Hmm? Saba, does it make a difference to you that my relatives are poor? Not at all. Thought so. Saba, if you can fight your Dad for my far relatives, can’t I, for you, ignore the little things that your Dad says? Thank you. I will leave now. Bye. Bye. Hey Sitara, listen? Where are you going with the iron? I am going to iron my clothes, why? Okay then iron my clothes and Mom’s as well. Yeah, but I have to go to the market as well. Yeah, so, brother Salman will take us to the market, old people are going separately, that’s why quickly iron them, come on. But there are so many clothes… There are what? I will wear it at the henna function, will I get the time when I come back? Especially when you won’t get the iron, hmm? That is why, quickly do it, please. Hmm You have brought clothes of the entire family. Umm, family reminded me of, I left brother Salman’s clothes, and if you don’t iron his clothes, who will take us to the market? Use your brain. Sitara, wait, where are you going? What is it? Thank God, you are going to iron the clothes. Look, these are my clothes and these are Mom’s, iron them as well. You know I will burn them if I do it. And Mom has especially said that Sitara will iron the clothes. Take them. No, no, I have to go to the market, I already don’t have time. Hey? So we all will go together, there is only one car. Come on. Quickly iron the clothes, and hold them, quickly. And this... So many? And get free and come soon, okay? They will fall. Pick that one too. These are Mom’s clothes, she will tell you then. If she finds out. Okay. Quickly get free and come. So many clothes? Let me do them quickly, I also have to go to the market then. You talk about my behavior and look at this, his phone is on and… Anyway… Dad, give him some time, he will be fine. That is what you always say and nothing happens. Okay, look, when he comes back this time, give him some space. What do you think he will come soon? Look, Dad, when the project is completed… I don’t want to listen, I am not prepared to listen to the stories regarding his love for animals. I understand. Nimi, I ironed your clothes, go pick them up from there. Aunt, Aunt, your clothes have been ironed too. Aunt, open the door, I have ironed your clothes, take them, please. Aunt? Kiran? Kiran? Nimi, open the door, your clothes have been ironed. Why aren’t you opening the door, Nimi? Nimi? No one’s there. Hunh? What? There is no one at home. If there is no one at home then where are they? Everyone has gone to the market. Market? Are you mad? Aunt? Oh hello, Who are you calling mad? Kiran? Nimi? Hey, I told you there is no one at home, everyone has gone to the market, but you don’t understand. So then where did Aunts go? They also… Listen to me, everyone means everyone. Can’t you stay quiet for two minutes? Psycho! You are a psycho yourself! Stupid, idiot! What? What? What? What did you call me? I called you a psycho. You have been calling out names in the whole house for so long, I told you there is no one at home, everyone has gone to the market. How can they just go leaving me behind? I wanted to go to the market as well, I had to buy bangles, I even told them. So why didn’t you go along? I was ironing clothes inside the room, what did I know that no one would be at home when I would come out? Aww, so now you are sure that there is no one at home, come on, good girl, make a cup of coffee for me. How is that possible? Everyone left me. Really, so sad. No one would remember, right? They won’t remember? Hey, Sitara Jahan is not a personality that can be forgotten. Personality? Yeah, so? Do one thing, look at me. Look at me and tell me will you ever be able to forget me after looking at me once? See, see, I told you that no one can even see me for very long. Do you know, my Dad used to say, Sitara Jahan your face shines like sun, no one can look at me for very long, exactly like you weren’t able to look at me right now. Really? Yes. Seriously? Yeah. Do you know, no one can even stare at me for long when angry. Hmm, they just fool you out of love, right? No one fools me, everyone loves me a lot, they can die for me. Hmm, right, I can see that, two dead bodies are also lying there. Dead bodies? Where? Exactly, of the ones who can die for you. Stay within your limits, do you understand? There is no need to talk much, I have my family, my own people in front of me, they love me a lot and they are all my blood. Who left you alone and went to the market, right? They might have left me by mistake, otherwise, do you know, Aunt dies for me, she has convinced me and brought me here from Karachi. Okay, listen to me, Look, Sitara Jahan, you can speak the truth in front of me. What truth? Okay, forget all this, tell me where is coffee? Coffee would be in the kitchen, where else would it be? Come, I’ll show you. Where do they keep coffee in your house, by the way? I totally forgot how would you have coffee in your house. Yeah, right, what will coffee do in my house, yeah? Yes, madam? Safia, make fresh juice for sister. I don’t want juice. You go make it. Okay. Have it, your mind will be at ease. After living together for 25 years, now Zehra Mirza seems perfect to him. Imagine? 25 years. He is saying in front of his son-in-law that I don’t know how to handle anything. Hmm, he shouldn’t have said it in front of the son-in-law. Mom, he shouldn’t have said it at all. That’s right as well. Now the damage is done, he should have said it before, what is the point of saying it now? What do you mean? That I am wrong? Your decision to marry was wrong, my child. I told you so many times, but you just looked at his wealth. He used to love me. No, he didn’t use to love you, he just liked you. Now his choice has changed, what’s my fault in it? This is your fault, my child, you think his choice has changed, though you have changed. I? Despite living with him for 25 years you didn’t understand that you were just his selection, not his love, maybe at that time, he liked the fact that you agreed with him, otherwise, an average-looking, middle-class girl, who was also his personal secretary, marrying her… Though he wasn’t any short on rich and good-looking girls at that time. He was a father of a daughter. He was also the owner of 6 factories. And his wife wasn’t alive as well. He must have thought how you worked hard to get his status, you will also help him turn those 6 factories into 12 but you weren’t even able to prove yourself as a good mother. You are saying all this to me because I married against your choice? Even Saba married against Dad’s choice but she is successful, right? Because she takes care of her husband and supports him. I am successful as well. Your husband is upset with you, and your son is a rebel, that’s a very good example of success. If you cannot learn from anyone else, learn it from your stepdaughter. She is the daughter of a multi-billionaire, but for the sake of her husband’s happiness, she locked her MBA degree and broke the key. She likes staying according to her husband's status. So when did I pursue my career? So you should have, instead of turning your son against his father, you should have done what your husband accepted you for. You should have done something on your own, had you made your identity, your husband wouldn’t be taunting you today, he would be proud of your companionship instead. Have it. I don’t want to have it. So then leave, why are you eating my head? Look, he can come if he wants but it doesn’t look nice if the groom attends his own henna. Hey, this is why this marriage is happening because the boy used to visit this house. I mean to say this marriage is Ehtisham’s own choice. Hey what’s wrong with it? Everything works these days, the bride and groom do a combined henna and by the way, we are relatives, there is nothing wrong, let Ehtisham come, and we will celebrate their happiness together. Yeah, exactly. Okay, Aunt, it’s not a problem we will do as you say. Thank you, my child. Hey, every guy marries by his own choice nowadays, they don’t trust their mother’s choice anymore. You are absolutely right, I suggest you keep Qasim in control, he might also mark his territory in another city like Ehtisham. I have already told Qasim that you have to live so you chose the girl yourself, yeah? Why should we forcefully impose our choice on him? What does your son do? He does a job, actually he didn’t get leaves otherwise he would have come with us, but he was saying he would get here for the wedding day, now you know the boys, if you force them much, they get so triggered. Sister-in-law would understand if she had a boy. Actually, sister-in-law just has one daughter, which is why she is unable to understand a son’s temperament. Okay, even if on the wedding day, he would at least reach here. Yes. There is just less salt in the kebabs. You have put less sugar, right? Yes, it is less. Yeah, okay. Take this. What is this? Beat it. Me? No, shall I get a servant hired for you? There must be some, it’s a rich people’s wedding, they should have hired 4 to 5. What? Servants, what else? You don’t have a penny in your pocket and listen to mister’s dream of hiring servants, yeah? You are… here, beat this too. Hold it. Tell me something, have you always been like this? How? You were upset because of the market a while ago and now look at you, your mood has completely changed. Yes, I can’t grieve over such a petty thing. Look, why did you cry if it was a petty thing? Tell me this. Looks like you don’t know anything about human psychology. I don’t know what? Hun Why did you stop? Beat it. Yes, yes, I am. Look, when an incident happens with a person, it feels like an accident at that time but after some time, that accident starts feeling like an incident and that incident becomes a story and we laugh and tell that story then. No, no, no, I don’t agree. What difference does it make whether you agree or not? I don’t agree. You weren’t even agreeing to the fact that I am your companion in pain and I can be of any use to you. Look, it makes sense till sympathy, but how can you be of any use to me? Look, I am just giving you a hint, all the payments in my house are done after asking me, whether it is the milkman’s bill or the newspaper guy or the water guy or the grocery man, everything gets done on my orders, everyone reminds me and I remind Uncle. Hey, how is this related to me? You are a very dumb man. I have to tell everything openly to you. Look, by the way, these are the personal matters of my family and I am not the girl who would share her family secrets with anyone, but I am telling you because you don’t understand. Look, I know all this will happen after the wedding, brother Ehtisham and Salman will come to you to ask for the wedding album and they will clearly refuse to pay, so who will help you at such a time? Me. I will go and talk to Uncle and Uncle will put pressure on them and get your payment done. Okay, so this is the thing. Yes, what else? You take my number, if you face any problem, just let me know, I will get all your problems solved, okay? And what do I have to do for this? I told you, you just have to take my pictures, What about the rest of the relatives? Will they help you get money? Greetings. Come, come, Aunt. Oh my God. Hey Sitara, didn’t you go to the market? No one took me. Who is inside? What happened? Who is it? Oh okay, you were inside too? What were you doing inside with the cameraman? What do you mean what was I doing? I was making coffee. And ask him what he was doing. He has a cup in his hands too. Yeah. So he was beating his coffee. Hey, you were making him beat the coffee? It is the limit, Sitara. Aunt, my hands started hurting after ironing so many clothes, now would I make the coffee for this photographer as well? Okay, now go, get ready, good boy, leave this, I will do it. What? I will have to go as well. Yes. You will come with us for the henna event, you need to click the pictures, that is why we have brought you from there. Yes. Oh, they are talking in signs in front of the elders. What are you saying, Aunt? I am telling you the truth, don’t you see how they were giving expressions to each other? Aunt? I told you she is my niece, don’t say that. She is just a little bubbly Yeah. Think before speaking. Okay, I won’t, what do I have to do with it, right? Okay, come sit. Get me tea. I have a headache. Sitara? Yes? Make tea, my child. Why do you say such things that Najma will respond with such things? Najma didn’t respond to me, she taunted me. So why do you give anyone a chance to taunt you? So what should I do? What should one do if they can’t even open their mouth? It’s a general thing that you don’t have a son so you are not aware of the nature of boys. What’s there to drag anyone in the center? General things? This is a general thing in front of you, Shaukat? She taunted me for not having a boy, and for you, it’s a small thing? It’s a taunt when it's about being childless. I have a daughter. It’s not a big deal for me to have or not have a boy. Listen to me carefully, stop showing these tantrums otherwise… Otherwise, what? Otherwise, I will hold your hand, seat you in a bus, and send you back. That’s what you have done, that’s what you have done to me all my life. I will still do the same so it’s better to go get ready and don’t you dare, I don’t want to see a frown on your forehead. If you cannot learn from anyone else, learn it from your stepdaughter. She is the daughter of a multi-billionaire, but for the sake of her husband’s happiness, she locked her MBA degree and broke the key. She likes staying according to her husband’s status. Instead of turning your son against his father, you should have done what your husband accepted you for. You should have done something on your own, had you made your identity, your husband wouldn’t be taunting you today, he would be proud of your companionship instead. What are you doing here? What are you looking at? No, I was just looking at Salar and Saba’s pictures. Do you remember Saba took the first position in MBA? Like that was some big achievement? It would have been nice had she done it in home economics. At least what she is doing would be of some use to her. Anyway, you get me a cup of coffee I am sitting there. Oh, they are talking in signs in front of the elders. Aunt? She is my niece, don’t say that. She is just a little bubbly Yeah. Think before speaking. People are right, we feel for our blood. If it was Aunt Najma instead of Aunt Shahida, she would have left me alone and gotten on the other side. Are you worried? Worried? Why? About what your relatives said today. I said everyone loves me a lot, they can die for me. No I think you didn’t hear it, that woman… You didn’t hear how Aunt answered Aunt. For a minute I thought your coffee would cost me a lot. Hmm, but your aunt forgave you the coffee because of me. Are you serious? Yes! what else? She loves me a lot otherwise she doesn’t feel pity on the poor people, do you get it? Now do one thing, go, get your camera, and take some solo pictures of me here. There must be a lot of crowd there, I won’t be able to get the pictures done there. Sitara, you are here and Nimi has been looking for you for so long. Listen, you quickly go get the camera and take my pictures. Tell Nimi I am coming in a bit. Go. No, I stopped from getting ready and came to look for you. Come with me, come. Nimi doesn’t leave my life ever, she never lets me do anything in peace, where is she? Where is Nimi? Yes, what is it? Where were you, yeah? tell me the work? What do you want, Nimi? You and Kiran will hold the henna trays because I am the groom’s sister so I will walk in front with him. Okay? What will happen if you will hold a try as well? Everyone is going together. Yes, exactly, everyone is going together so why do you have a problem with holding henna tray? Yeah? So you agree everyone is going along, right? Everyone goes along, so why did you go to the market alone? Oh! So that’s the thing, you needed bangles and you got them, why didn’t you wear them? Hmm It’s up to me, I don’t wear things given by someone. As you wish. But when I come wearing my set, don’t get jealous and turn into ashes, okay? Oh ho! Enough, guys! Let’s call the photographer, we have gotten ready so nicely, we should at least take pictures. I will wear the jewelry and come, don’t you guys take a picture without me. I will be right back. I didn’t wear the jewelry as well. Sitara, hold the photographer when he comes. Don’t let him go, okay? I am coming. Nimi, wait! We have suffered so much loss, now for a local project I cannot avoid a foreign delegation, right? So would you leave everything on Zehra Mirza? What can we do? Time is also a great factor in this. You have invested millions to establish your good will and Zehra Mirza will take full advantage of it. What should I do? Should I suffer the loss of millions for the sake of my goodwill? I wish Salar was here right now. Why don’t you ask Junaid to attend it? No, not Junaid, Junaid has a lot of work of his own and I don’t want to disturb him in this plus, he has Saba with him and I don’t want Saba to know any details of any of our projects. Hmm, it means the whole game is in the hands of Zehra Mirza now? What can be done? You are exactly like my son to me, whatever happened, I apologize to you for it. Actually they don’t know you, I will just tell them. It’s okay, Aunt but… Trust me, she is an orphan, we don’t want to hurt her but… Oh sure, bring her along with you… I already told you to miss out Sitara but you… One, one second but Sitara is your relative, right? No, no, you haven’t met our relatives yet, our relatives are very good. Really? So who is this Sitara then? She is one too, Salar but you are coming along so see it for yourself, our paternal side of the family are very nice and sophisticated people. Right, Mom? Right. Come on, tell me, how will you introduce me today? What do you mean how will I introduce you? I mean you have already humiliated me or do you plan to insult me more? No, no, son, Sitara’s … No, no, not Sitara, Aunt, but what has been said regarding Sitara, that. Oh, Aunt? No, my child, Aunt won’t say anything I take guarantee of it. No, Aunt, that’s not needed now. Why? Because if anyone says anything to me now, I won’t stay quiet, hmm?
