I've brought you up with you
Laiya Laiya Ma Tere Naal Dholna
Ik Dil Si Reha Mere Kholna
Me Malti Gayi Gaya
I have thought of a cheap idea for publicity.
What is that?
Welcome, welcome to Patti Tiara.
Gift from Patti.
Discount for couples.
On the basis of my degree, I can get a better job than a supervisor.
Then why don't you look for one?
You have a lot of relations too.
Go and do something for God's sake.
Have you told Michelle about this?
No.
Why?
I don't think she is ready.
Ready?
Her divorce is so late.
Yes.
Yes, this is Jamshed Ahmad speaking.
Yes.
I am talking to the American Consulate.
Your passport is here, come and collect it.
Want to eat something?
No, I have an appointment.
Should I pack you something?
Nope.
Still angry?
Emara, I am just in a hurry.
I am sorry baby.
When I am nervous, I talk too much.
I am sorry.
You know, I really wonder if you would be this sorry
if the letter hadn't come from your immigration officer.
No, no.
What are you talking about?
Emara, I have been married to you for six years.
I know when you are lying to me.
No, it's not this time.
Really, sorry.
Listen, enough with the apologies
and the making breakfast for everyone.
You don't need to do that.
I swear, I mean it.
You know, I don't care if you mean it or not.
And listen, your lawyer called.
You need to pay him another twenty two hundred dollars.
What?
Two months back I gave fifteen hundred?
You know, it's not my problem.
But if you don't pay him, he's not going to come to the hearing.
How much is it?
Yes, I am making you a bill too.
How did you like your cut, Nusrat Khan?
You have made me young.
If Mr. Khan sees this, he will get angry.
Excuse me.
I don't think you have cut his hair.
So when should I cut it?
I have only trimmed the edges.
Then why are you looking so satisfied?
Because one thing has been fixed in his mind.
That he will look beautiful only if he comes to the salon twice a month.
Otherwise not.
I love her state of mind.
Oh God, America is becoming Pakistan.
Why?
Don't you know?
The story of butler Mr. Sharma.
He had brought his son from Pakistan after getting married.
He didn't get along with his in-laws.
He threw a tantrum on him.
And said that there was a gas leakage in the kitchen.
When he regained consciousness, he told the police.
Then the police arrested his in-laws.
Oh my God.
So sad.
Domestic violence has become so common here too.
I know.
Twenty dollars.
Thank you.
Salma, this is for you.
Thank you so much, Ms. Khan.
Okay, bye.
Bye.
Such a sad story.
By the way, I will go and clean the floor.
Come on, come on.
Hello.
Look, I have been preparing breakfast for you for a long time.
The paratha must have been cold by now.
Anyway, you eat it.
If it has become cold, I will quickly make it fresh and bring it.
Aunty, I have to reach somewhere.
I will leave.
Yes, yes, you go.
Why are you in such a hurry?
You have breakfast.
I will make tea and bring it.
I will go out and have it.
No, I will go out and have it.
I have made breakfast for you.
Come on, sit.
I will get tea for you.
Sit.
Hey, the milk is over.
Maybe Munna drank it last night.
Aunty, is everything fine?
Hey, I will get it.
I will get it from the store right now.
Hey, I will go out and have tea.
Why are you worrying?
Why will you go out and drink while I am here?
Sit, my prince.
I have made it for you.
Okay, I will get the milk.
No, no, I will get it.
You sit.
I will get it right now.
Take the money.
You got up.
Hey.
Grandma.
Yes.
What happened to aunty?
Why?
Breakfast, tea.
What is wrong with her?
She has applied for a visa or something else.
Oh.
Let me ask her.
How long has it been?
Six months.
Did you tell aunty?
What would I have told aunty?
Your aunt told me before I did.
What did she say?
What can she say?
What did she say?
She said that it is good.
And?
Uncle Ran?
She didn't talk to me.
She still has to talk to me.
Don't tell her anything right now, grandma.
Once I get the ticket, we will tell her together.
When are you getting the ticket?
I don't know.
I will go to the travel agent tomorrow.
Then we will know.
Hmm.
What happened, grandma?
Nothing, son.
Nothing.
What happened?
You look sad.
I am scared of this America.
What happened, grandma?
Why are you scared?
Do you know what I will do?
I will go there.
I will get a job.
And as soon as the nationality is formed, I will call you to me.
Hmm.
Fourteen years ago, Imran also said the same thing.
Come on.
Will you have it?
No, I have already had breakfast. You have it.
So madam, what did you think?
Hmm?
About what?
About the wedding.
Not again.
Why not?
Your business is going so well.
Life is absolutely set.
Only one thing is missing.
The wedding.
Yes, yes.
Its been fourteen years since your divorce.
Its a lot of time.
Fifteen.
Fifteen?
Oh God.
In fifteen years, life changes.
I know.
Look, Michelle,
you need to move on in life, right?
For how long will you keep punishing yourself because of one bad experience?
And madam, who told you that being alone is a punishment?
Hmm?
I might be loving it.
You might be loving it,
but you don't even think of a companion.
Congratulations.
You have become a sixty year old aunt.
Hmm.
Okay, seriously.
If nothing else is right, then there should be a change in life.
Yes, right.
Look,
for the time being, I have not thought about it at all.
And you are saying as if there is a line of people waiting to choose me.
Why not?
There might be a lot of people.
Who?
What do you think of Rizwan?
Rizwan is my best friend.
Potential husband.
Okay.
I am not joking.
In fact, I think that best friends make the best husbands.
Yes, but it is not necessary for him to marry the best friend.
Rizwan has to stay in Rizwan's place.
When I will need a husband, I will find one myself.
Now order quickly,
I have to get back to the restaurant also.
Where are you?
I have been calling you since so long.
Actually,
I had to complete an assignment.
What will you do after studying so much when you have to get married and have a child?
You are very worried about my marriage.
I am not worried.
I am just saying what happens.
So you want this to happen.
What are you talking about?
I have to tell you something.
That you have got your visa.
How did you know?
The whole neighborhood knows.
In fact, your mother in law had sent me sweets.
Sweets?
Your mother in law?
Great.
How does the sky change color?
Then?
Then what?
You got your visa, didn't you?
I had told you.
Aren't you happy?
Are you happy?
Of course.
Okay.
You finally got what you wanted.
Yes.
You know,
someone is absolutely right.
When you want something with all your heart,
then you get it.
This doesn't happen with everyone.
No, this is what happens.
Anyways,
when are you leaving?
Huh?
I have found out about the ticket.
I will leave as soon as I find out.
Hmm.
I don't even want to stay here for a second.
Where are you going?
Back.
What happened?
We are talking.
I have gotten used to all these things.
And I have some habits.
The sooner I change, the better.
Asma.
By the way, tell me,
how are your and your wife's relations these days?
Okay.
Fine, good.
Are you sure?
Last time when I talked to her,
she didn't seem happy.
So Mr. Bhatti,
Mr. Lawyer,
I gave you $1500 two months back, right?
Yes.
Absolutely.
That means your balance of $200 is remaining?
Yes.
And I
promise,
I will give you soon.
How soon?
Just a little bit.
If I get the time, I will get the time.
Mr. Bhatti, I am a lawyer.
Not an IMF.
Earlier, the Pakistani people
were under debt.
I don't want to argue with them.
I also have a family.
I have some expenses.
I also have to pay bills.
My car runs on petrol, not CNG.
You can see,
your hearing date is two weeks away.
Arrange the rest of the money.
Yes.
Okay.
And tell me,
how are your relations with your wife these days?
Fine.
Fine. Good.
Are you sure?
Last time when I talked to her,
she didn't seem happy.
No,
it is possible that
you know,
the pressure increases,
and a good day has passed.
Just take care of one thing,
that on the day of the hearing date,
she is in a good mood.
Something can go wrong.
Yes,
I will try.
Fine.
One lakh and thirty five thousand rupees?
Yes, brother.
Brother,
we have to go to America.
We don't have to go to the moon.
So brother,
America is no less than the moon.
But this is too much.
Believe me,
I am giving you the lowest ticket,
and I am not even taking my commission.
I asked you a few months ago,
and you said one lakh rupees.
It has been so long,
and now the ticket is expensive.
Do something.
You are saying as if this travel agency is mine,
and I am taking money from you deliberately.
I didn't mean that.
Actually, I had one lakh rupees,
you can take thirty five thousand from somewhere.
All of a sudden,
thirty five thousand rupees,
where did you get it from?
Brother,
thirty five thousand rupees,
will it work?
Don't joke.
You are the one who is joking.
Looking at my condition,
do you think I have thirty five thousand rupees?
I haven't even got a job yet.
You should have asked your father.
If I had three or four thousand rupees,
I would have asked for it.
But thirty five thousand rupees?
You should ask uncle Asim.
He is with me,
he will give you the money.
And what all will he ask for?
That you should go to America.
Whoever he will ask,
he has asked for the guarantee of return.
I will send you from there.
I will believe it.
Not the one who will give it.
Why don't you ask your uncle Imran?
No, uncle Imran sends so much money for the house.
I cannot ask him for money.
I don't want him to know
that I am going to America asking for money.
It would have happened.
You have to go there and take a favor from him.
I don't want him to send me money for this work.
On top of that, I had asked uncle Imran
that I will go to America myself.
You just help me there.
Here children,
have tea.
Thank you grandma.
Hey, you didn't even eat today.
Grandma, I am not hungry.
I will eat later.
What happened to him?
He went to find out about the ticket today.
That is why he is in a bad mood.
Why?
One hundred and thirty five thousand rupees ticket is being made.
He had deposited one hundred thousand.
I am worried about thirty five thousand.
Is the work done?
Yes.
I have colored the client.
I just have to wait now.
Okay.
What is your plan today?
I don't have any appointment.
So I am thinking I will go a little early
and get groceries.
Didn't you go to get groceries yesterday?
I did, but now I need more.
Is he coming back?
Yes.
Hello madam.
Hello Mr. Bhatti.
Where are you?
I am busy with work these days.
Really?
We thought you might have forgotten about us.
No, no,
how can this be?
I didn't find a client for this side.
I told the five or six women here.
Yes, yes, yes,
there are a lot of clients,
but you are not seen.
So sweet of you.
I will see some clients,
but you do visit them.
Yes, yes,
you go and continue,
I will visit them.
Okay.
Bye.
Are you fine?
Yes, I am fine.
Okay then,
bye.
Bye.
Mr. Bhatti,
where are you going?
To the city.
Okay,
can you drop me at Lexington?
Yes, why not?
We will not charge too much.
What?
Nothing.
Come on.
The weather was really nice today.
Yes, yes.
By the way,
you must meet a lot of different types of people in the cab, right?
Yes.
What is the matter?
Why are you so quiet?
What?
Is everything okay?
Yes, yes,
everything is okay.
I don't think so.
Why?
A person like you,
and you are so quiet.
No,
it is nothing like that.
Just like that,
just a little.
Mr. Bhatti,
are you hiding something?
No,
what do I have to hide from you?
Nothing.
Okay,
one block ahead,
stop the car.
No,
it is nothing like that.
Okay,
I will tell you.
I want to buy groceries,
that is why I am telling you.
Oh,
okay,
thank you.
You are welcome.
By the way,
if you have time,
I can listen to the reason while buying groceries,
if you want to tell me.
Son,
should we have some water?
Keep it,
it is good for your health.
Have it.
Yes.
What happened?
Nothing.
Are you worried because of the ticket?
Yes,
your grandmother told me.
Thank God she told you,
otherwise you wouldn't have told me.
What did I tell you?
That I was stuck because of the visa,
and now I am stuck because of the ticket.
My luck is bad.
And that damn ticket had to be expensive right now.
Son,
it has become more expensive.
Leave it,
all these issues are for the poor.
Once you get a chance, then…
Don't start now.
Grandmother,
why are you closing the door?
Be quiet.
If your mother sees this,
then she will get a new punishment.
Here,
keep this.
It is thirty five thousand.
Thirty five thousand?
Yes.
Where did you get thirty five thousand?
Leave it,
keep it.
Grandmother,
tell me the truth,
is it stolen?
I don't want to be in jail for free.
Be quiet.
Are you thinking of a joke?
Then where did you get it from?
Did you sell any jewelry?
I didn't have any jewelry that I had to sell.
Keep it.
Then where did you get this money from?
Leave it.
Grandmother,
I swear on you,
the money that Imran used to send,
I used to keep some of it,
to save it from your uncle,
for Umre.
And I thought,
that Imran will take me,
but
the one who couldn't come to see his mother,
when will he be able to take me to God's home?
Grandmother,
I can't keep this money.
Get lost.
Be quiet.
I have told you,
that you should go there and remember,
and take me to Umre.
My child,
I have no one else but you.
Thank you.
Your ears must be hurt,
but I can't hear you.
No,
it's just that,
there are small issues in the house,
so my mind gets a little confused.
In this house or Pakistan?
I don't know.
You are talking a lot today.
Huh?
Yes.
Huh?
No, no.
No.
Where?
In this house.
No,
in this house.
Pakistan is a big country,
I have been there for decades,
but
I have never been there.
I have been there for many years,
and I have never been there.
I know.
Really?
Do you have a family there?
Huh?
Yes.
I have a family.
My elder brother Iqbaad,
my nephew Jamshed,
and my mother is very nice.
Really?
Yes.
Then you should go,
or your mother is missing you a lot?
Yes,
I miss her a lot too,
but that's it.
You can't go.
It's an immigration issue.
But you said that you have been here
for the past 14 years.
When I came here,
I had a visa,
I had,
then the 9-11
came here,
9-11,
so
after that,
the government here
was very strict.
So now,
I just can't go.
On top of that,
I just had a fight with Cathy.
My immigration lawyer,
he sent me a big cat.
Cathy?
Cathy is my wife.
Oh.
My wife is an American.
Really?
Yes.
She is absolutely American.
She takes good care of me.
She knows that I work day and night for her.
I just have a little bit of a temper.
Yes,
she is your wife.
Yes.
Pick it up.
Yes, yes.
No, not this.
Your phone is ringing.
It must be from home.
Leave it.
Then it's more important.
Listen.
Maybe Cathy is in a mood
to apologize to you.
What do you mean to apologize to her?
It must be her mother's phone.
She must be saying
that she caught something
while coming from the market.
Who is your mother?
My mother and Isabelle.
Cathy's children are my first husband.
But I take good care of them
just like my children.
I love them.
Yes.
Then pick up the phone.
So that your mother doesn't get upset with you.
Yes, yes.
Hello.
Yes.
Which sauce?
Jalapeno?
No, no.
Okay.
Okay, okay.
I get it.
Bye.
That's what happened.
I wanted to order a sauce.
Okay, you can take it from here.
It will be easier for you.
I will leave.
Where are you going?
I will drop you.
I will drop you myself.
No, no.
It's upstairs.
Then let's eat something from there.
No.
Subway, train.
Oh, yes.
Okay.
As you wish.
I will leave.
Okay.
In the sauce.
By the way,
thank you.
Thank you?
Because
you
don't talk much,
but you hear me all.
No problem.
Right?
Yes.
Who is it?
Is your packing done?
Almost.
And when is the flight?
At ten in the morning.
At ten?
Yes, I brought this for Salman.
He has so many toys.
Look, toys are never less for children.
But he is going to be eleven years old.
So?
Considering my age, he is still a kid.
Besides, this is the age to play with toys.
Later, it's just going to be computers and gadgets, desk, office.
I don't understand
if you want to keep the child inside him alive
or the child inside you.
He likes beards, so I thought I'd take him.
Then give birth to your own children and spoil them.
I'll do it when I have them.
Okay brother, tell me something.
What?
Did you talk to Michelle?
About what?
About marrying her.
I mean,
you'll have to adopt children too.
Did you talk to her?
Didn't I tell you that
I want to give her some time right now.
I want to give her a lot of time.
But she knows that you are interested in her.
You like her.
What is there to tell her?
I'm sure she knows.
And what if she doesn't know?
I'll tell her when the time comes.
Besides me, who else would marry that weird personality woman?
That's horrible.
At least get her a hint.
Okay, I'll give her.
Okay, I have to go.
So, good night.
Good night.
Tell her quickly.
Yes, yes.
My nephew coming from Pakistan,
after a few days,
can I put him here?
Put him here?
Really? Are you crazy?
So, are we going to the zoo?
No, no point.
No one is interested.
But I really want to.
Man,
wait,
my mom.
Mom.
Yes.
Hello, mom.
Hello.
Son, congratulations.
For what, mom?
Jamshed's visa has been granted.
He is coming to America.
What?
Yes.
Yes, yes.
He is very happy.
Oh, that's fine.
But I had told you,
there is no situation for him to come here.
Let him not start.
For God's sake, mom,
try to understand the situation.
Is it so easy to live here?
When you went,
everyone was saying the same thing.
But you have spent 14-15 years.
How do I explain to you?
Tell me,
how long has he been given a visa?
Six months.
Okay, fine.
So,
when the visa ends after six months,
what will he do?
Till then,
he will find a job there
and those people will get him a visa.
Oh,
he is like a big politician.
His job will be ready for him here.
If he is not a politician,
then he is not such an illiterate.
He has done his graduation.
And then you are also there.
Give me one taxi from your taxi.
Yes, and your house is there.
Okay, fine.
Then what is the problem?
What do I say?
Tell Jamshed to call me.
Okay,
now don't talk to him.
He is bringing a lot of hope.
This is what scares me.
What?
Nothing.
Okay,
I will tell Jamshed.
He will call you.
Anyway,
I have sent some clothes for Kathy and the kids.
Okay.
What was the need for this?
Why wasn't there a need?
If I have not met her till date,
then isn't she my daughter in law?
Okay, fine.
Bye.
Here, tell me.
She will kill me.
I want to ask you something.
Yes.
Did you really tell your family that your company is here?
I didn't know that Jamshed would come here for a job.
And I didn't say that the entire company is mine.
I did say that yes,
there is a lot of money in it.
This is the same thing.
The problem is not about the job right now.
The problem is about Jamshed.
Where should I keep him?
What should I do with the house?
Don't you tell your family the truth?
I don't have the courage.
I don't have the courage to talk to my mother.
Everyone thinks that
I am happy in America.
I have my own house and business.
I am very busy.
That's why I can't come to Pakistan.
How can I tell anyone that
even after so many years,
I am neither from there nor from here?
Forget it.
Or else think about Jamshed's attack.
That's why I am asking you.
Give me an advice.
What should I do?
I don't understand anything.
Did you try to talk to Kaithi?
Don't you know Kaithi?
Do you think she will understand
and she will agree to it?
I tried to talk to her.
What did you try to do?
It's like hitting a drum in front of a band.
She won't understand these things.
She doesn't know what our country
and our problems are.
What responsibilities we have on our elders.
She doesn't understand.
Her thinking is different.
The advice I had to talk to you
was to give a good person an advice.
Let's think about it.
Do you understand what I am saying?
Yes.
I have something for you.
What?
I have a hundred scarves.
I like this one.
It's beautiful.
It looks pretty on you.
Thanks.
Your lawyer.
He called.
I said you would have the money for him
by the time you come to the next hearing.
Thanks.
Better start saving up money for that.
Yes.
Are you still angry?
No, I am just busy.
You should have come to the zoo.
It was fun.
I had an appointment.
Listen, I need a favor.
A big favor.
What?
My nephew coming from Pakistan.
After a few days.
Can I put him here?
Really?
Are you crazy?
Just for a few days.
Paddy, I am not having a stranger
live in this house with my kids and me.
He is no stranger.
My sister, my only dead sister, only son.
I guarantee no cheating.
I don't care.
I am not having a desi man stay in this house.
That's it, final.
Please, Gaiti.
No way, Paddy.
You go, you are getting late.
If I come to this house again after six months,
then you must be waiting for me.
But why will you come back?
My dear, have you kept all the warm clothes?
I have, Rani.
They are very expensive there.
Don't worry, I got them for you.
Okay.
Check again if anything is left.
No, Rani.
Jamshed, is the packing done?
Yes, it's done.
Okay.
That's it.
Yes, it's done.
It's not done.
I'm putting it in the car.
Look, it's two o'clock.
We are getting late.
Get out.
What is there in this?
Listen, go outside.
Why?
Mist call after mist call.
For what?
Mist call.
What is the need to worry about everything?
Even you would have come to meet me.
I could have come downstairs and see you off, but I couldn't give this to you.
What is this?
Friendship band?
You are not a child to wear a friendship band.
I gave it to you so that whenever you see it,
you remember that I gave it to you.
You think that I will forget you as soon as I go there, right?
I will miss call you every day.
But I will stand alone on the terrace.
Okay.
You go, you are getting late.
If I come back this week after six months, then you must be waiting for me.
But why will you come back?
What do you mean?
I have to come to pick up grandma.
And maybe you too.
What?
Maybe I should also come to pick you up.
What if I don't find a girl?
You will see.
You will find a girl.
Take care.
You too.
You will find a girl.
What do you think? Is your uncle old?
Hey, he is not old.
You look so young.
You have started to smile.
By the way, brother, how many months have you applied for a visa?
Six.
Okay, six months of a city life.
Then there will be silence.
Long live.
I saw you on the 32nd street.
There was a girl with you.
Who was she?
She is my daughter.
You are a tourist visa.
And you cannot work here as a tourist visa.
If you get caught, then the neighbors will throw you out.
Open.
Will you marry me?
Laiya, Laiya, I want to dance with you.
My heart is beating fast.
I want to dance with you.
Laiya, Laiya.
