Where are the kids?
They are probably inside.
Sanju will soar in the sky along with my kite today
and he will look down at his biggest fan from the troposphere.
Yes, but a kite can only be flown if it stops raining.
And if it stops raining, then our rainy day will be cancelled.
So it's better if it keeps raining.
I bought this kite three days ago.
It rained on all three days.
By the way, I do have a superstitious remedy to stop the rain.
Tell me, tell me.
Keep in mind that it is a very old mantra.
They say that if a naked child
stands on the terrace with the stone from a grinding stone set upright
and says "Badarphat, Badarphat, Badarphat", three times
then it will stop raining.
Wow sis.
Try fooling someone else.
Ask whoever you like.
Fine.
Hey, you monkey, I taught you such a good remedy for the rain.
What will you give me for Raksha Bandhan this time?
What do you want sis?
Just tell me. I am very generous.
You can't manage it.
Just like every other time, you will give me the money Papa gives you.
Just tell me what you want,
I will ask Papa to get that.
I want a pet.
A sweet and cute...
dog.
Come drink your tea Amma, it's getting cold.
Yes, I am coming.
-Show me that. -Here, take a look.
Look at these muscles too.
Yes, you will get muscles in about 40 - 50 years.
Here. It's really nice.
Listen Papa,
I want to give sis a special gift this Raksha Bandhan.
See Ritika,
your brother loves you so much.
Tell me, what do you want?
I want a pet. A puppy.
Really?
Do you want this?
Both brother and sister will get one each.
Mummy, just get me a pet this time.
Then I won't ask you for anything on my birthday.
We all know that your birthday just went by.
Look, having a dog at home is a huge responsibility.
-And if we get a dog home... -Then I will leave this home.
I am telling you,
you have to choose, if you want a dog in this house or if you want me.
No amma, we already have two dogs. Why would we get a third?
Papa! You are leaving this discussion halfway through.
No child, I am leaving you guys.
Can you move a bit...
Good.
-Where is the umbrella? -Where it always is.
And listen, should I bring one kg or one and a half kgs?
Bring as much as you can eat and still fit through the door.
750 grams will be enough.
Amma, should I fetch some more tea?
-So grandma... -No.
If you ask me to support you guys getting a dog then I refuse.
No grandma, I wanted to ask you
that if someone went to the terrace and said "Badarphat" three times
along with setting the grinding stone upright,
will that make the rain stop falling?
It should make it stop.
Badarphat...
-Rishi. -Badarphat...
What is he doing?
Rishi, have you been possessed? What are you doing?
I am using the Badarphat mantra to make it stop raining.
Have you gone crazy? Come in or you might fall ill.
Stop making me angry. Can't you let me live in peace?
You wait!
So Rishi, did the rain stop falling?
Grandma, you decided to help sis, didn't you?
I will deal with you later.
Sis, if I don't get you back,
then I will change my name.
Really? What will you change it to?
BP Awasthi? Badarphat Awasthi!
It's a good name, right grandma?
That's enough. No need to taunt him.
This time, I refuse to let sis tie a rakhi on me.
Sis is back.
Was that a firecracker?
Rishi! I am going to kill you!
What is that?
Why are you wearing Ubtan?
I will slap Rishi today and none of you can stop me.
Rishi, what is all this?
He set off a firecracker next to manure.
Just think, I could have been burnt!
Sis, it was just a transformation
of potential energy to kinetic energy. That's it.
What is that?
Grandma, it's science.
-I am going to hit you with my slippers. -Hey, stop it.
-You shouldn't have done that Rishi. -This is not science!
You even ruined her new dress.
You know clothes don't dry quickly during the monsoon right?
You care more about the clothes?
What is...
Apologise to her. Apologise.
So you are all okay with her sending me to the terrace naked?
Don't I have any respect in this house?
You and respect?
Hey, respect man.
Now that you have both pranked each other once you are even.
It's over.
Always fighting...
You should watch your back.
You threw manure at me, right?
I will make you taste this manure!
Papa, where is sis?
Mummy, I don't see sis anywhere.
Hurry up and brush your teeth.
She said she would make me taste manure.
But did she actually go out to buy manure?
Where were you, sis?
Ritika, breakfast?
Where are you going, sis?
She is plotting something Rishi.
What are you hiding in your pocket?
Exactly what you don't need to know.
Why are you following me?
What are you planning?
Look, mummy made it clear.
We are now even.
Really?
You threw manure at me, right?
Just watch,
you will be tasting poop soon enough.
Baking soda?
What are you hiding sis?
Why do you care? Get lost!
If you don't tell me
then I will yell and bring everyone in the house out here.
Come in. Let's go.
Sis, where did you find him?
When I went out in the morning,
I saw him walking around alone in the rain.
So I put him in a basket and brought him home.
But listen to me Rishi,
we can't tell anyone about him right now.
And that is why we will keep him hidden here in the shed.
This is the first time my sister has ever done something good.
Why are you standing with your mouth open?
Sis, you are the best.
That's true.
Now listen.
No more pranking each other. Truce?
Truce.
Mister, please take a look. Our dog is missing.
He is a tiny golden Labrador.
He responds to the name Goldie.
If you see him anywhere, please call this number, okay?
Mister?
Is there a reward for giving you news on this missing dog?
Yes, the reward is 500 rupees.
Did you find him?
No I haven't, but if I do see him, I will inform you.
What is the score?
Score?
The score of this pranking match.
-Oh. -Wasn't the score one-all last time?
Do you want them to fight?
No.
I mean...
At least they are using their brains for something.
We will see what the score is on Raksha Bandhan.
What happened? Why did you stop eating and stand up?
Sit.
Eat.
What?
Everyone is here, what are you doing?
What am I doing?
What are you talking about?
Shut up and eat.
Rishi,
I know that whenever I make Aloo parwal you feel unwell.
What are you doing child?
Why are you wiping your hands on that?
Eat your food.
Her food is not over but she wants to clean her hands?
What is wrong with them today?
And him too.
Sis...
Quick, pick him up.
If grandma wakes up, she will create a scene.
What are you both doing?
Why are you fighting like dogs?
Go out and play.
I think he is hungry.
That is why he keeps licking everything.
There must be Aloo parwal left over.
Should I get some from the fridge?
Did you eat that? Why do you think he will?
Go in and get some bread.
Aloo parwal...
What is wrong you cutie?
Are you hungry? Will you eat? Oh, are you hungry?
-Rishi! -What happened? What happened?
Here, hold him. Take him outside.
-Oh God... -What happened?
What happened? Why did you scream?
What happened?
What is this? Why are you bleeding?
-Did you get hurt? -How did this happen?
Rishi bit me with his teeth.
What? Rishi?
Have you lost your mind?
What is all this noise?
Score 2 - 1.
What kind of a prank is this Rishi?
Do you think you're a dog?
You sunk your teeth in!
Why are you standing there like a mute? Tell us why?
-It was a mistake... -You shut up.
What mistake?
Fighting so late in the night...
Both of you will now be sleeping away from each other.
You will be sleeping in the hall
and you sleep in the room with grandma.
Come my child.
They are creating a scene at night...
Come.
-Let's go. -Come, we will bandage this up.
No mummy, I will do that you should go to bed.
You're bleeding!
-No, no, it's very minor. -Are you sure you will do it?
Yes papa, you guys go to bed. This is a minor injury.
Go ahead.
We should get his teeth checked. He has teeth like a dog.
Does it hurt?
No, it tickles.
I feel like laughing.
"Does it hurt?" he says...
Now you will have to take 14 injections.
We can't even go to the family doctor.
He might call mom and dad and inform them.
Do you want some water?
No, I am not thirsty.
Are you not thirsty? Or are you afraid of water?
Sis, you might get rabies because of this dog bite.
You always speak nonsense!
Oh? And what about what you said?
Rishi bit me.
Everyone in our house thinks I am a dog.
What else could I do?
If I told the truth, we would both be in trouble.
Sis?
How long can we keep him hidden?
We have to tell them at some point.
We will see how they are feeling in a couple days and tell them.
Yes, or we could hold mom, dad's and grandma's feet.
Please let Manglu stay.
Manglu?
When did you name him Manglu?
Where did you hide Manglu?
In the shed. In the box.
Oh, good job.
Now you go to sleep
and I will sleep too.
Are you sure you're not thirsty?
Just go.
Ooh Manglu...
Are you cleaning it with your eyes?
Clean it up.
Why should I do it? You clean it.
-Just do it Rishi... -Hey!
I can't find one of my sandals. Has anyone seen it?
What is that? Why is there a kerchief on the ground? Pick it up.
Go in and fetch a dirty cloth.
What is this? Who did this?
Who chewed my new sandals?
Probably a rat.
Where is that smell coming from?
Papa, Rishi farted.
You are crossing a line.
Oh God!
What is that on the floor?
Rishi!
Rishi! What...
What did you do?
Tell them Rishi.
No need to feel embarrassed.
Tell them, it happens sometimes.
Did you do this?
I don't know Papa.
I had a very weird dream last night.
I woke up...
and headed for the bathroom...
and I thought that I had reached the bathroom.
And then this happened.
It's fine!
It happens sometimes.
It's okay, Rishi.
How can it just happen? Is he a small child?
Rishi, you have grown up now.
You think you can do it anywhere?
And then you sat on it?
Now clean it up! Immediately!
And clean yourself up.
I will tell them sis.
I will clean it! I will take care of it.
Come with me Rishi.
We need to clean your pants too. They're dirty.
And there are no rats in my house.
How can you be so sure?
Do you think a rat will wait for permission,
"May I come in ma'am?"
Son...
I have been having difficulty breathing since yesterday.
Can we go to the doctor today?
Yes, I will take you in the evening after returning from office.
Tomorrow is Raksha Bandhan, so the clinic might be closed tomorrow.
Sis, you crossed a line today.
What could I do? Everyone was sitting there.
So, you decided to make me sit in a dog's poop?
I was the one who cleaned it, right?
If it was that simple, then why didn't you sit on it yourself?
Because I want to win the game.
The score is now 3 - 1.
Are athletes smarter than science students?
Why didn't I get the idea of making her sit on the poop?
Careful. Careful...
Neerja.
What did the doctor say?
He said that her asthma has gotten a little worse.
Here, her medicines.
That doctor is crazy. He is wrong about everything.
He said the reason the asthma has gotten worse
is because there are dog or cat hair in your home.
I told him, there are no
cats, dogs, horses or elephants in my house.
Okay fine. Come and rest. I will make you some medicine.
We are the reason grandma fell ill.
It looks like we have to inform them at home.
If we tell them, we will get in a lot of trouble.
And if we don't tell them...
then grandma might get sicker.
Should we make a doghouse for him in the storeroom?
Remember what grandma said?
We have to choose if we want a dog in the house or her.
But... where will he go?
He doesn't have anyone to care for him.
What will happen to Manglu, sis?
Manglu is not more important than grandma, Rishi.
We need to tell you something.
Today is Raksha Bandhan.
Go take a bath and tie a rakhi, then we can talk.
-They want to talk so early. -No mummy, listen to us first.
It's fine Neerja. Let them talk.
What?
We are the reason grandma's asthma got worse.
My child, the doctor said your grandma is allergic to animal hair.
Just because we called you dogs a few times,
have you started to think it is true?
Sis, go get him.
Who?
What?
What is that?
It's a dog, grandma.
We can all see that! But what is he doing here?
Neerja.
This is Goldie.
Goldie?
Show me.
Have you guys started kidnapping dogs?
Who brought him home?
-I did. -I did.
Now it feels like his hair is going directly in my mouth.
Amma, cover your mouth with your saree.
How many days has he been here?
Two days.
Two days?
I am going to turn your cheeks red today...
No Neerja, wait.
Today is Raksha Bandhan. Don't hit them today.
Wait till tomorrow.
Where is the pamphlet? I should call that man, right?
It is near the fridge.
-Papa, please... listen to me. -No, he is looking for the dog.
Mummy, he was getting wet standing in the rain all alone.
Just think about what could have happened if I hadn't saved him.
Mummy look at how cute he is.
-Please... -Okay. Okay, I understand.
He is. He is cute but...
that doesn't mean you take a dog from someone else to keep it here.
Mummy, grandma, sorry.
It's fine, Neerja.
A dog is God Bhairava's mount.
So can we keep him?
Thank you kids.
You took such good care of my Goldie.
Uncle, is Goldie vaccinated?
Yes. Why?
You're safe. Otherwise you would have needed 14 injections.
So, he was the one who actually bit your hand?
He was also the one who pooped on the floor.
Oh!
Uncle, today is Raksha Bandhan.
So can I tie Manglu...
I mean, can I tie a rakhi on Goldie?
Yes, why not.
Child, you are the one who protected him.
You can definitely do it.
Well, I would like to thank you one more time.
Bye, my younger brother.
Here you go.
Great.
Now that you have tied a rakhi to the dog
you can tie it on your brother.
Grandma, he is not a dog. He is my brother.
Brother? Then who is he?
He is a big dog. That was a small dog.
Come on now, tie him a rakhi.
Wait a minute. Let me put a scarf on him first.
-Go ahead. -Sis, make sure the tika is small.
Yes, it will be small.
You look like you just came back from a pilgrimage.
Come on now, sit down and let her tie the rakhi.
Come on, give us a smile.
Now feed him the sweet.
The sweet...
-I want the rasgulla first. -Papa that was for Rishi...
It's an egg?
An egg?
Ritika you fed him an egg during a holy month?
Get that away from me! Why are you giving it to me?
I planned it for Rishi.
Sis, the score is now 3 - 2.
And it will be 3-all very soon.
We will see!
