Amritsar

Raavi wakes up in the morning and goes to other room. A 7 year old boy is sleeping and snoring.

Raavi : Yeh kabhi nahi sudhrega..

Raavi : Shivin...Utho..School jaana hain..Shivin

Shivin doesn't budge.

Raavi : Shivinnnnnnnnnnnnn(shouts loudly)

Shivin wakes up with a jolt. He rubs his eyes.

Shivin : What's the matter mom? Why can't you let me sleep?

Raavi : Angrez ke bache..kitni baar kaha hain..mere saath hindi mein baat kiya kar..Jab dekho tab english mein baat karta rehta hain..English mujhe bhi aati hain par iska matlab yeh nahi ki mein pure time english mein baat kiya karun..English medium mein daalke hi galti kar di..Yeh aaj kal ke bache na..

While Raavi is speaking, Shivin mimicks her dialogues silently. Raavi notices this and glares at him.

Shivin : What? Why are you staring like that? This is your daily lecture. Now I am bored of listening it..

Raavi : Bored? Mein boring hoon?

Shivin goes to bathroom and start brushing his teeth.

Raavi asks him again. Shivin slightly nods.

Raavi : Mein boring? Nahi toh..Mein boring nahi hoon..

Raavi looks at herself in the mirror. She is wearing a simple tunic top with jeans. Hair tied with a clip. No makeup. A watch worn on left hand.

Shivin : Now stop staring yourself. I was just joking. I always get late to school because of you. Now let me get ready.

Raavi watched him with wide open mouth..

Raavi : Ulta chor kotval ko daatein..Theek hain..Kal se uthaungi hi nahi.

Raavi stomps out in anger. Shivin laughs seeing her. Shivin gets ready and come out to see breakfast already ready.

Shivin : Woww..Aloo paranthe..Yummy

Raavi : Baatein angrezi par khaana desi...Mujhe tera kuch samaj nahi aata..

Shivin : Understanding me is not only difficult but also impossible.

Raavi : Nautanki..Baith..Khaale..

Shivin giggles and enjoys the food whole heartedly. Raavi adores him and widely smiles.

On the other hand, somewhere in the centre of Amritsar infront of mansion a truck stops. Shiva comes out.

Shiva : Dhyaan se..Sab samaan dhyaan se laana...Kuch bhi tootna nahi chahiye..

All the movers and packers unload the things and move it into the house. Meanwhile three car comes and stop at the mansion. Whole Pandya family come out. A 7 year old girl run to Shiva and hug him tightly..

Shiva laughs...

Shiva : Tara...meri bachi..

Tara : Chachu..Aap hamare saath kyun nahi aayein? Mein kya bore huyi hoon pure journey mein..
