Breaking news.
A new scandal in Tanie Brar's life.
Sumer is back.
I am sure you must be wondering,
that the girl will quit her job and run away
But no. That was the old Tanie.
Who gave up, way to easily.
This is the new Tanie.
She isn't afraid but makes others afraid of her
Hey congratulations.
- Congratulations. - Thank you.
Hey congrats, Tanie.
- Tanie Congrats. - Thank you.
- Hey congratulations. - Thanks.
They know my name?
It is a strange feeling.
Not because of Sumer.
We broke up two years ago.
So, all water under the bridge now.
I know, many say that exes can't work together.
I don't know about him.
But I let bygones be bygones.
God, just look at him.
I am sure he must be here from 6 in the morning, to put on an act.
who is he trying to impress?
Lavanya will come after an hour.
Trying so hard.
You know it's really sad.
But what to do? Old habits.
When he was with me,
he was trying hard to get into someone else's pants.
I am not going to let it affect me.
- Hello. - Ricin.
What?
It's a poison. Doesn't doesn't leave a trace in the victim's body.
- Should I arrange for it? - For whom?
For Tanie, Sumo.
Poison acts as an antidote on itself.
Stop your nonsense.
and stop putting up an act of a woke angry young man
and you of a chemistry professor
Remember you passed 10th grade science with so much difficulty.
I know, forget that okay tell me, how will you deal with Tanie?
It's my first day at work.
Let me focus. I don't have time for your nonsense.
The winter of London has freezed your brains.
Have you forgotten what she did to you?
I want to forget.
But you keep calling me repeatedly and not letting me forget.
You don't value good friends.
if you have so many problems with me, just block me.
Sure, no no go ahead, block me, disconnect my call.
Pull me out of here kiddo, Sumo has blocked me.
Excuse me.
Pakistan?
- India. - Oh okay.
Can you take care of my dog?
I have to get a takeaway from the cafÃ©
- Does it bite? - I don't know.
is this your dog or did you steal it?
Adopted him today, so I don't know if it bites or not..
Keep an eye, I'll be back in 10 minutes.
Tie him. I'll guard.
Oh, so cute.
Thanks.
So, I have done a basic pass to the story
Before the writer writes further
we should discuss a few things
sure, go ahead.
Seriously. Writer. As if he doesn't know my name.
So, I feel our protagonist, Tara.
has a lot of conflicts in her life. Which is, okay.
But the writer must ensure that, closure isn't very soon.
We should wait till the second half of the series and.
- Tanie. - Excuse me.
My name is Tanie, not writer.
Tanie, yes ya.
You are making notes, right?
- So. - Why shouldn't Tara get a closure?
She can get.
But I think what you did is very casual, flippant, yeah,
- So, the point is. - Well, I think you are wrong.
Because some people like to deal with their problems, head on.
Not the majority.
real life is not prespcriptive
that everything can be cured by a pill.
Some people need to swallow the bitter pill.
Like the characters of our story.
I think.
You mean to say, you can treat people however you like, and just say sorry.
After all it's your fault. You couldn't swallow the bitter pill.
Why shouldn't I give closure?
Well, it really depends whether they really want a closure.
Some people escape from problems.
Well, I don't think my characters are such.
Okay. Okay.
I think it's enough for the day.
Manali, Gautam. Could you give us a minute please?
Thank you.
Sumer. Why don't you take a seat?
- What? - I insist.
You would be fools to think
we haven't done back ground checks on both of you.
Tanie. You have written the story.
But the copyright is with me,
and there were other writers, along with you on probation.
So, I can easily replace you.
And Mr. Film Festival
There isn't any dearth of young talent.
I chose you. I can change my mind.
Now, I will say this only once.
Do not drag your personal bullshit into my office.
This project is very important for me,
and it can be made with or without you.
Okay.
Good.
And Tanie. Sumer's feedback is correct.
You and I both know that. So, get cracking.
Tanie. Tanie.
Are you stalking me?
Alisha said that, you would be..that you were here.
This is for you.
Is it a love letter?
that I can't write.
Sumer sir, has sent a list.
Please Tanie, it'll be helpful for you.
Just don't shoot the messenger.
What is it?
Sumer sir has made a list of films.
some classics for you to watch.
It will help you in writing.
I'm sure you must've seen at least half of the films from the list
Watched at least one?
Will it be available online?
Seems difficult.
there's a DVD store 15 minutes away from here
you will get all the movies there.
Sure?
could you save your number and send me the address, please?
Thank you, Gautam.
Gautam.
Sumer knows I don't watch movies.
Has he given the list deliberately?
Yes, I have reached.
yeah. Not the second right. The second left.
Ya. Bye. I'll see you.
- Hi. - Hi.
uff, the cutie is here..
Sumer did at least something right.
It's nice to see another customer here.
Or I feel like I'm the only ghost wandering around these aisles
With a white saree.
There is actually a really nice TV set up if you want to watch a film.
Actually, we are in 2022.
people watch films online these days
Maybe you should try it.
fair. But you're here too?
What happened? Did your boyfriend change the ZEE5 password?
Ouch.
I am a writer.
My knowledgeable director has given me long list of films to watch.
When I might have watched only 20 films in my life.
So, this entire area is an alien territory to me.
- Do you mind if I see? - Please.
Thank you.
Wow.
Must say I already like your director and his choices.
All are classics. Can I help you to find?
Could you? That will be wonderful.
Thank you.
I am Tanie.
Karan.
Let me tell you, it's your lucky day.
Because I know every nook and corner of this store by heart.
But I don't work here.
He is cute and nerdy too.
Swipe right.
Take this.
Hello.
Oh, you have reached. I am coming.
Yes, I am coming.
I am coming. Bye.
I think only 2 DVDs are left.
I am really sorry Tanie. I actually have to go.
But don't worry, the last two DVDs are in that corner.
I am sorry I have a commitment.
It was nice seeing you, take care.
It was nice seeing you.
- See you. - Bye.
I thought we would drink coffee, maybe watch these movies.
Maybe dinner.
Getting a little too extra, no?
Alisha.
so you would jog to his house?
Sorry Tans, I didn't tell because I wanted to keep it on the low
You have caught a big fish.
Hope you are not mad at me.
Mad? Are you mad? I am impressed.
Don't spread it, okay.
Karan.
So, I know you both want to keep this on a down low.
but its too exciting to be kept under wraps
So, I would need your help.
Hold this.
watch all these films and just give me a summary of these
Bitch, are you blackmailing us now?
Blackmail? Never.
Consider it as secret keeper's fee.
Give it to me.
Don't worry. I have watched them all. Just smile.
Come.
Uncle Bitu.
- Are you running away from mom? - Yes.
- You too? - Yes.
Bittu
But why you?
Keeps going on about Sumer.
I don't want to talk.
And you?
Bumped into Sangeeta.
So, all stylish.
Are you alright?
Listen, Tanie. Life is too long.
We can meet anyone, anywhere.
Not for Sumer but for you, vent out the anger.
Spit it out.
Forget Happy and Sumer.
You have got another chance, focus on your work.
that's what I'm trying Bittu Uncle
My job is to write and his is to shoot.
but who is going to explain this to her?
Anyways. Are you ready?
Hey. I was born ready.
Bits. Go.
- Buddy Sumo. - Titu.
How are you? Good morning. Good morning, buddy.
if it was good morning, you could've sent me a whatsapp forward
- Why are you here? - I was going to what's app.
But you have blocked me.
Excuse me.
Bring my bag...
Get my bag.
Just look, It's sunny already?!
the weather in London is weird.
sometime rainy sometime sunny.
- I just don't get it. - you don't even know
that if someone has blocked you on whatsapp
then they don't travel from Bombay to London for it
Fair point. Absolutely, fair point.
I would like to say words to you, Sumo
Say.
Bloody scoundrel. I am here for you.
Tanie, your key to disaster.
To save you from her.
Wonder which lies she will say now.
I don't care. I am fine.
No, you are not fine. You are great bro.
Tell me, what haven't you done in the past one year.
When the world was making Dalgona Coffee.
You made a film.
that too when your personal life was.
Sumo it's just that I don't want you
to suffer again because of Tanie.
Tanie is just a writer.
She will write and I'll shoot.
- That's all. - Say this while looking into my eyes.
I don't have anyone in my life.
Except you and me, buddy.
This is what you always do.
Sir, would you like to place an order?
Do you have Pinniya?
Pinniya?
What do you have?
Sir, menu.
Bitu. Is that you?
Sangeeta.
What a pleasant surprise.
What are you doing here?
I own this cafÃ©.
- Your cafÃ©? - Oh nice.
But what brings you to London?
I came to meet Happy and Tanie.
Felt like having Pinni.
Wandered around and saw the restaurant, maybe I would get it.
But I don't think it is available here.
- I'll leave. - Hey wait.
Nick. Get me one almond butter ganache cake. Quick.
- Okay. - Excuse me.
one glass of water..
Are you okay?
Yeah, we're meeting after ages so.
You look the same.
Same to same.
Nonsense. I am getting old.
And so are you.
But look at you. Same style as ever.
Ya, not bad. Yes.
- Water. - Thank you.
Sorry to hear about your husband's death.
Thank you. but that was years ago..
Do you work in the restaurant all day?
or have some friends?
What do you mean?
No, I mean. Such a huge restaurant.
Run it alone?
My son is busy with his life
I don't have a husband, so.
I do run it by myself.
But I love it.
That's good.
try it!
By the way, please let me know
if Pinni is available in London.
This is my number.
You're definitely going to get those Pinniyans
Till then. This is my favorite.
When we grow older like 25/26.
We will still remain the same.
Drinking together. Laughing together.
Won't we?
Lavanya. Yash.
Yash.
Actually, I am surprised you agreed to take my interview
Rajiv knows how to convince everybody
including me.
- Let's begin. - Yes.
You're heading the web divison
So, the content will be experimental, wild and personal.
Some blast from the past.
People have long forgotten, but you just aren't able to.
The whole of London remembers your wild child days
The only person who doesn't remember is probably your dad.
I am so sorry.
No, no. It's fine.
I enjoy a good Alzheimer's joke.
Very sensitive, Yash.
I'll surely give your regards to dad.
Yes.
People are saying, as the head of Meraki's web division,
your management style is quite off beat.
Yes, we encourage originality and going against the norm.
And as you love, Breaking news.
I want to tell you that we are launching our first project.
That's great and also according to sources.
You have a deadline of two years from Meraki.
If the project flops, you lose your board room seat.
Not only this. Maybe your inheritance too.
Care to comment.
Well. I wonder who your source is?
No comment.
who sends such long emails this early in the morning.
Is he an owl? Doesn't he sleep.
He must be scheduling emails at night.
So, everybody gets it fresh and early in the morning.
And he is super-efficient.
Smart.
You're quite sharp yourself.
You walk so fast.
Slow down, we aren't running a marathon.
I don't want to be seen with you.
Why are you wearing such colorful shades?
then you will complain that London looks blue..
Remove.
Bro the entire hip crowd of South Hall wears it. It's in fashion.
- F**k. - What happened Sumo?
Last night I sent new draft to Tanie.
She hasn't reverted the email yet.
Just fire her. Please fire her.
Shut up.
She used to write so well, straight from the heart.
Wonder what went wrong.
Her words are lifeless.
She is doing it deliberately.
Sumo, I think she wants to sabotage the project.
You know what?
I think Sumer is trying to sabotage me.
- He wants me fired. - You and me both.
He doesn't even drink coffee.
Who survives without coffee?
He is such a wannabe.
I am irritated with him too.
I showed him 50,000 auditions. He didn't like a single one.
One more audition.
Can't find a single good actress in London.
Really.
The morning sun rays,
- I forgot it all.. - She looks good.
'I had forgotten everything'.
But when I met you.. I felt like.. Maybe it's not too late, afterall.
She's acting well. She's saying her lines quickly too.
What more do you want?
I have forgotten what is to be like in the moment.
The warm mornings, the smell of the rain.
I had forgotten everything.
But when I met you.. I felt like..
Maybe it's not too late, afterall.
Not so long.
Sorry. What was the line?
Oh sis. Listen to me.
It's a dialogue. not a morning assembly speech.
And you are Tara.
Forget everything else.
Follow my lead.
Slowly while looking down and eyes lowered
you have to say two lines.
And then,
with love, warmth and a twinkle in your eyes.
Look up and say the last line.
Because you really love this guy.
- Got it. - Alisha.
- Oh hi. - Hi.
Give me a moment.
I wasn't expecting you guys.
You are fired.
What?
You're fired.
Lavanya I am so sorry. I was going to send the auditions by evening.
But because of him.
He didn't like anyone. Then I thought this girl is coming this afternoon.
Hear me out.
You are fired because I am offering you the lead.
me?
The lead, in the show.
I am offering it to you.
This is a joke.
Do I ever make jokes?
- Never at all. - No.
I don't make jokes.
Congratulations.
Thanks.
Actually, don't thank me, thank Sumer.
He should me a clip
where you were performing and showing the other actor.
It was quite impressive.
Welcome aboard, Alisha.
Thanks man.
Shall we?
Congratulations.
Sorry.
Sir, have you read this book?
everyone in office is finding it hilarious. It's by our writer.
Who gave you?
Don't know. It was delivered to everyone
You don't want me here. Say it.
Stop playing these dirty tricks.
What nonsense Tanie?
Nonsense! My second book. My biggest failure in life.
And you are distributing it to the entire office.
Do you really think so?
I don't need your second book to humiliate you.
They way you are writing on a show, it is clearly evident.
the story was approved before you came.
If you don't believe in it, it's on you, not the writer.
feels that the opposite person is wrong
- That's what you think. - Oh, really Sumer.
You think I can see through your bullshit?
Putting on this act of being sincere and dedicated
Like the first benchers in school.
Ma'am, I think the writers should watch these movies.
The writer should look at the protagonist in this manner.
You won't be a genius by sabotaging me.
Oh, do you really think I am that jobless?
I don't have time for scheming.
Trying using this aggression in your writings.
You will write better at least.
I am so sorry, I am not good as your screen writer Myra.
- you don't have to. - Why?
- Don't do this Tanie. - Why?
- You are crossing the line. - Really?
I haven't even begun.
or else you and your dirty views and your digusting behaviour
digusting behaviour
Dirty views and digusting behaviour is a Brar family speciality
You are all insensible and don't know when to say what and..
- Sumer don't talk about my family. - I don't want to.
Don't fucking point fingers at me. Okay.
Why don't you ask your mom?
Who isn't aware of what wrong deeds are?
Coming to scold me!
