"One damn thing"
"is that to me, it is a never ending suffering."

'As I'm Suffering from Love'
Dad. - What's it, dear?
What's a marriage?
Uh? - Marriage..
Why do you ask? - I want to know, Dad.
Go to sleep.
Dad, I'm not sleepy and I want to know.
Then go and watch some cartoon on TV.
No, Dad, I want to know.
Tell me, Dad..
Well..
When a boy and a girl like each other
and decide to be with each other forever
they get married.
So, can't two people stay together if they are not married?
They can stay together.
Then why do they get married?
It is like an official promise.
What?
Like marriage gives them a reason to not get separated
and locks them into a relationship wherein they can't separate.
It stops them from leaving each other.
They lock birds in a cage.
Is it similar to that? - Drat.. No..
It's just like an official promise.
So that they don't leave each other.
But when they have decided to be together for a lifetime
why would they leave?
Sweetie, it's getting late. Please go and sleep.
Tell me! - What?
Why do they get married?
Okay. Do you remember?
You and Riya
had promised to be best friends for life, it's like that.
What! I hate Riya.
When my teacher moved her to a different class
she made a new best friend.
I'm never going to talk to her.
Sometimes, even that happens. - What will happen?
Uh.. Nothing.
What will happen?
Nothing, dear.
Okay, Smriti, it's getting late now.
Please go to bed, come on.
I want to know. What will happen?
Sometimes, do the boy and the girl stop talking to each other?
Yes.
Do they get separated later on? - That's right.
Then what about the marriage?
You won't be able to understand that, dear.
They have to get divorced.
What's a divorce?
Uh.. That is..
Tell me!
Ok! Why did you and Riya promise?
You both could have remained best friends just like that, right?
That was my mistake.
Here on, I will never make a promise with anyone.
Okay, then don't do it.
Then why do people continue to get married?
Because they're neurotic insecure idiots
who need something to validate everything
in their empty meaningless lives, to boost their ego
saying that there's someone to care for them and love them
when the other person is in exactly for the same reason as they are.
Did you get it now?
Please go to bed now, Smriti.
Dad.
Have you and mom too cancelled your marriage, Dad?
I'm Balakumar.
I'm a divorcee.
After 10 years of marriage, nothing worked out.
But I guess it's all for the best.
It was a healthy divorce.
It wasn't a messy one with fights, we just shook hands and parted ways.
My ex-wife has remarried.
She met someone recently.
I'm really happy for her.
I'm really very happy for her!
'Really?' - Why not?
Huh.. Of course.
What I mean is past is past.
I'm really happy for her. I'm happy.
'Why didn't you get remarried?'
Oh, no..
How could you ask me such a question?
I suffered the first time around, won't that do?
Am I a fool to do it again?
The fact is I'm not able to find anyone.
And I have a daughter.
My ex-wife and I share custody of her.
She'll be at her mother's place half a week.
And she will spend the rest of the days with me.
'Oh! What's your profession?'
I'm a reviewer. - 'Uh?'
I write online movie reviews for a website.
It's on Twitter as well.
Uh. I'm Writer Balku.
I'm 38 years old now.
Here on, in my life
I don't think anything new is going to happen.
I don't have any major ambitions.
My daughter is my life.
Every week, when she comes and spends those three days with me..
I just wait for it.
If she wasn't there, I don't know what
I would have done after the divorce.
I love her so much.
'Do you have a jolly time being with your dad?'
Hmm.
'Do you like staying with your mom or your dad?'
Stop kidding. She obviously likes both of us.
'Is that so, dear?'
But the food is better at my mom's place.
'Oh.'
My mom cooks really well. - 'What about your dad?'
At my dad's place
it's either Maggi or 'Chapatis.'
'How do they taste?' - They will taste mediocre.
Every time I get here I'll keep thinking
when I would get to eat food cooked by my mom again.
She talks really well. I love her so much.
Hello, Roomie! - Hello!
Yes!
Actually, she's moving in.
Henceforth, she'll be staying with me.
It must be around five months, isn't it?
Hmm. - Yes.
It has been five months since this started.
'What?' - This..
This bond between us. Whatever we have.
What is it?
'Are you both dating or in a relationship?'
Does everything have to be labelled?
We love each other, that's it.
'Oh, how's it going?'
It's going really well.
'Then why just move in? Why don't you both get married?'
'Oh, no, sorry, did I bring up an awkward topic?'
Drat.. Nothing like that. It's just that
neither of us believe in marriage.
'What? Why so?'
Why do you get shell-shocked for that?
Once we are in love the very next thing people ask us is
'When are you both planning to get married?'
That's
so wrong.
Marriage is something that will decide
how two people get to spend the rest of their lives.
It's like having to decide the next 50-60 years of your life right now.
That's something we don't believe in.
Moreover, freedom should be the foundation of love.
That's why this relationship..
Or whatever you want to name it is so healthy.
'Okay, but where's this leading to?'
'You both are in love, it's bound to end in marriage.'
Did you see that?
Even you said that love will end once a couple gets married.
'Hey, I didn't mean it that way.'
It's not necessary for love to end in marriage.
Similarly
one can't say that both will truly love each other after marriage
no one can guarantee this. Both are completely different.
When you decide that you're unhappy being single
and want to be happy, you decide to get married.
But love..
It is about two happy people who share their happiness
in spite of them being alone.
Marriage is an arrangement.
But Love.. Love is a state of being.
'Nice.'
'Hey, wait.. What do both of your parents feel about this?'
His parents and mine will definitely not like this.
We're doing this without their knowledge.
Hmm.. But
we have to let them know about this soon.
'Why so?'
At my place, they're aggressively looking for a suitable groom for me.
Daily, they keep sending pictures of guys referred by others.
When I was a little girl
if some guy would call up to the landline in my home
and if I receive the call and speak
my parents would ask me a million questions as to who it was.
'Why did he call you up?' And so on.
They were really strict about that.
But now, they are saying, 'Look at him, he's handsome.'
'Look at that guy. Speak with him over the phone.'
They go to the extent of sharing their numbers.
It's extremely silly.
I didn't like any of those guys, but they don't listen to me.
This guy looks handsome. Get married to him.
I'll kill you.
Sorry.
'What about your parents?'
Are you asking me as to how my family would react?
Have you seen the film 'Mad Max'?
'Yes, I have seen it.'
Yes! Just like that
my entire family will arrive from Madurai.
In the film 'Mad Max'
you'd have seen them hang someone called Blood Bag on the bonnet.
Do you remember? - 'I do.'
My condition will be similar to that.
What? - Sorry, dear.
'I thought it would be better if your husband would have been here, too.'
No. I prefer to do this alone.
You can ask him separately.
'Are you fine to do this separately?'
Uh? - 'Alone?'
Yes.. I'm okay.
'So, how long have you both been married?'
It has been a month. - 'Just a month?'
It has been one long month.
'So, how's it? How's your married life?'
You should ask that question to her.
Are you asking me about that? You better ask him.
'This is why I thought of doing this together...' - Eh?
Things he shouldn't have ideally done, he has done it all by himself.
And you want us to do this together, is it?
No need. It's better we do it separately.
'What exactly did you even do?'
I did absolutely nothing.
We did quite a lot.
How can you attend your bachelor party in Bangkok
and return without doing anything? Tell me.
'You are free to do so, but what about him?'
Whom are you referring to?
Me?
I didn't do anything..
That's right.. He didn't do anything.
Buddy, it's not a joke. It's a serious matter.
Don't laugh like this. Sir, I didn't do anything.
I didn't.. - Even I said the same and he's convinced as well.
Buddy, how can you laugh?
If you laugh, he'll misunderstand me, right?
Look here. You said as such, so, he'll harbour a doubt now.
What sort of doubt? - Did you see that?
He entertains a doubt now.
You'll have to tell him now.
'No, if you don't wish to say it, then don't.'
Listen to it.
It happened in Patpong.
Her name was Nee Vaa Sui!
'Nee Vaa Sui, uh?' - That's right, she's a bar dancer.
'What happened?'
Santhosh who's here went up to that girl
and asked, 'What is your name?'
And that girl said her name which translates to 'Come' in Tamil.
He said, 'She's calling me' and he followed her.
Listen to this.
Would enquire about what happened
on a trip taken by bachelors?
If that's the case, no husband can escape.
Aren't girls aware of this?
I sent him on a bachelors' trip to party.
Not to sleep with Nee Vaa Sui.
'How did you react when you found out about this?'
Ah, now, you've asked the right question.
Ask her what she did.
'Actually, when did you get to know about this?'
I got to know about this on the wedding night.
Just imagine my situation.
How shocking it would have been for a newly-wed bride?
I was furious.
'In that case, I'm guessing'
'you both didn't consummate your marriage.'
She did happen to do it..
But not with me.
What? That was my revenge.
If men go on a bachelors' trip and do all sort of nonsense
would they expect women to be understanding?
I wanted him to feel the same way as I did.
She's a psycho, pal.
'Don't get me wrong, who's that guy?'
When I ask, she doesn't say his name.
But I don't give a fuck about who it is and all.
I'm not even curious to know about that.
Okay, maybe I'm slightly curious.
'What do you do?' - I'm an HR Professional
in a corporate company.
I'm working for a corporate company, but
that's not my life's calling.
Uh.. I'm an aspiring actor.
'Aspiring.'
I've done a couple of brand endorsements and
I've also essayed a character role in a film.
But I'm very choosy.
I don't do any random stuff and all, you know.
I like to get into the skin of the character and
it's like that.
He was seen dancing like a lunatic
in the background in two flip-flop commercials.
And in a film, he was seen drinking tea in the background
while the hero was talking in the scene.
He took 10 takes to act in that scene.
In spite of all these goof-ups
he behaves as if he's similar to Leonardo DiCaprio who won an Oscar.
'How does it go everyday at night?'
Hey! What's this? Uh?
What's this?
Does it match the decor of this house?
Hey, this is cinema, damn it. Art.
You won't get it.
It's a vintage camera. - Hello..
Who are you? Who do you think you are?
Are you a cameraman? Or a photographer?
You've whiling away time in the name of acting. Eh?
You're getting emotional over this freebie gift.
It's my good luck charm.
Only after this was placed here
I got a chance to essay a role in that film. - Hey!
Didn't they edit that scene out of the film?
Hey, shut the fuck up, okay. My house, my rules, okay?
Balls!
'How do you get by everyday?'
With a lot of alcohol.
Get lost!
Hey! How dare you shove me? Eh?
You know what I'm capable of, right? Eh?
I will gouge your eyes out. Got it?
What are you looking at?
I'll whack you.. - Hey, come on, do it. Let me see. - Hey!
Hey.. - Will you hit me? Do you have the guts to whack me?
Touch me. - You want me to touch you, right?
Here it is, I did.
I've touched you now, what will you do?
Are you scared..
Hey, she got scared. You better fear me..
Hey, come.. - Damn you.
Oh, no! Hey!
Damn, you kicked me. Oh, no! - Scoundrel..
Fool! - Okay..
'You better fear me.'
'In spite of all this, if you both are together'
'it means that you both are ready to forgive each other'
'and give your marriage a second chance. Am I right?'
That's not the case.
Here on, my life's goal is to destroy his life.
I'll be with her, torture her physically, mentally and financially.
He should regret all his life for what he did to me.
I will never ask for a divorce.
But I'll inflict torture on her to such an extent
that she won't be able to take it, she will come to me
and she will plead me to divorce her..
I'll behave like a noble woman in front of the others..
I'll make her seem to be a villain to the others.
I'll snatch his wealth and ruin his peace of mind.
I'll make her cry and send her away.
Then I'll enjoy the rest of my life as per my wish.
I'm just getting started.. - I'm just getting started.
'They're psychos.'
So, our wedding is going to be celebrated for four days.
A pre-party henna ceremony and a music ceremony.
Wedding will take place and then the reception.
Engagement will go on for two days.
One will be the pre-engagement ritual.
Then the engagement post which there will be an after-party
for our friends.
'So, what's happening today?'
This party is to announce all the events to our friends.
You can call it a pre-pre-engagement party.
'What does RT stand for? Is it 'Retweet'?'
No! That's actually our initials, Raghav & Tanvi.
It's a co-incidence that it's like RT and retweet.
So, I guess we're going to be a trending couple after all.
Also, we're going to hashtag our marriage updates
and make it trend on Facebook and Twitter.
And on our WhatsApp marriage group.
'Oh! You have a WhatsApp group dedicated to your marriage, is it?'
Yes, we created it today.
So, we've added all those people whom we are acquainted with to it.
Photos, selfies and updates
pertaining to our wedding will be there.
Tanu, dear. - Yes.
Why is that Sunitha and Shekar are not in the group?
I added them, why don't you check again?
'Are your friends okay with that?' - Well, they don't have a choice.
May be they exited the group.
Nonsense, it has been 10 minutes since I created it.
Look here. Arjun also left the group.
Well, our friends are very happy for us. - Yes.
See you. - Yes!
All these sort of things happen in a party, right?
That's right.. - Hey, one second. - Okay.
Hey, hi, are you having fun? Can I get you something?
'Oh, thanks. That's okay.'
'Why don't you introduce your friends?'
I was just going to do that. They have been coming in just now.
And she, who has been my best friend
since my schooldays is going to be here.
Hey, Tanvi. - Hey, hi!
Hi, dear. - Hello.
How are you? - This is Divya, my best friend since my schooldays.
Hi, Badri.. - Hi. - How are you? - I'm fine. How are you? - I'm fine.
Thank you so much for coming.
No problem. - This is Badri, her boyfriend.
And both of you just feel comfortable, okay?
Tell me if you need anything.. - Yes.. Sure.
Sure.. - And, Divya
we have so much catching up to do. - I know, right?
Even I've a lot of things to discuss with you.
So, I'll just go and receive all the other guests..
All right. - ...and then sit down, okay? - Yes.
Hey! Hi! - Divya.
Where's the food? - Come.
And you won't believe what Vineeth did that day.
I'll see you. - Oh! Just one second. - Okay.
Hey, Raghav. - Hey.. Buddy! Hi.
Sir, please come.
He is Mr. Balakumar.
I mentioned that I run a movie website called
'Everything Kollywood'. He's the Chief Film Reviewer in that.
Oh, nice.. - Where's your dad?
Here. - Oh!
Oh! - Hello.
How are you.. - Hi.
Mr. Balakumar.
Balakumar, this party involves alcohol.
And you have brought your kid to it.
I know. But today is my turn to look after her.
I did check with her mother, but she has already made some plans. - Oh.
But you don't worry. I'll take care of her.
She won't be a disturbance to you.
No.. I don't consider her a disturbance.
What I'm trying to say is.. - Okay, let's do the announcement now.
But my cousin isn't here yet. - He's always late, Raghav.
Leave him be. In sometime, everyone will get drunk.
Let's do it now.
Come.. - Okay.. See you.
'As we're suffering from love.. - As we're suffering from love..'
'We would like to grant us leave.. - We would like to grant us leave..'
'...from our bachelor lives. - From our bachelor lives.'
'And get us admitted.. - And get us admitted..'
'...in the hospital called marriage. - In the hospital called marriage.'
'And never be cured.. - And never be cured..'
'...of this illness. - Of this illness.'
'Ever till we both die.. - Ever till we both die.'
Yes.. - Cheers. - Cheers!
Let's get the party started.. - Woohoo! - Woohoo!
Hey! Shit!
Oh, shit. - Oh, my God!
Damn, you. Fuck..
Fuck! Fucking bitch, what did you do to my car?
Get up.
Oh, my God!
That's my cousin Santhosh and his wife Meera.
Oh! Is that so.. - Hey.. Careful.
What's this? What happened?
I guess the party is getting started.
"We caught a glimpse of them and we fell for them."
"We fell head over heels in love and had a jolly time."
"We are ignoring the warning signs"
"and proceeding."
"It turned out to be a pretence. - Yes!"
"The terms of endearment whispered was all a pack of lies."
"The love we had for each other"
"doesn't exist now."
"They went to Ooty on honeymoon."
"She inflicted torture on him."
"Ding.. Dong.. Ding. Love is an awesome feeling."
"One damn thing is that to me, it is a never ending suffering."
"Ding.. Dong.. Ding."
"Love is an awesome feeling."
"One damn thing"
"is that to me, it is a never ending suffering."
