Tehri
1
"What spell did you cast on me,
o magician."
Everyday they leave their underwear in the machine.
All grown up,
but they haven't learnt to wash their underwear.
"What spell did you cast on me,
o magician."
"What spell did you cast on me, o magician."
- Moreover they reuse it without washing.
"My crazy heart keeps calling beloved's name."
- And I always end up washing it. - Mom.
No one listens to me. - Mom.
Mom.
Mom.
Mom.
Mom.
What is it?
Why are you screaming?
With all that racket that
washing machine is making..
..what else do you expect me to do?
Of course, its like music to my ears.
And I can't control myself around it.
Come and join me.
Then you'll learn to
wash your own underwear.
I always wash my own underwear.
That one belongs to your beloved son.
Earlier he would just leave it
on the bathroom floor
and now, he dumps it
in the washing machine.
Progressive man.
I'm going to give him an earful
when he comes back.
He's been missing since afternoon.
And, why on earth were you screaming?
It's 3 o'clock and I am starving.
And also getting late for coaching.
- The food's ready.
- Serve it then.
I see
You seethese clothes are tired
of dancing to the washing machine's tune.
And I need to take them upstairs
so they can get some fresh air.
I'll be right back.
Until then you can feast
on the shame that's stopping
you from taking your own food.
Go ahead, and feast on it, Mr. Engineer.
You've been sitting at
home for almost a year now.
And now it only shows up every Sunday.
Go ahead. Feast on it.
I am not sitting idle at home.
I am preparing for the SSC exam.
Do you even know what it means?
Staff Selection Commission.
Once I get selected,
I will give it back with interest.
No need to seek retribution.
The least you can do is fix this place.
It will be as good
as exacting revenge on me.
Hold this.
No one wants to talk straight.
Do you?
Fine, I am going.
Look at this.
She's made yellow
rice again with potatoes.
It's called 'Tehri'.
No, it's called a disappointment.
Stop calling names,
because that's exactly why..
..you don't get any nutrition.
- Just eat what I've made.
- Do I have a choice?
If you want choices,
then go stay at a hotel.
Oh, God Mom.
'After watching this
mother-son argument'
'if you're imagining that this is
some kind of dark cinema'
'where the mother kills her
son in the end, then fine'
'you can imagine whatever you like.'
'You seepeople of this country
judge everything too soon.'
'Because you'll find examples of such
arguments in every home in this country.'
'There is no beginning,
middle, or end to these anecdotes.'
'They start abruptly..'
..and also end in the same manner.'
'And get stored in the
cache of your memories.'
'In the piggy bank of memories.'
'Yes, that's me.'
'Comfortably sitting
in an ordinary home of India'
'Piggy Bank.'
'Because this ordinary looking home..'
'..is a plethora of such anecdotes.'
'Pay attention, anecdotes.'
'And not a story.'
'Because, if this was a story..'
'..then the murder would've
already occurred.'
"Sometimes high, sometimes low"
"Sometimes twisted.."
"..and sometimes straight."
"A little twisted,
and a little restrained.."
"but I held on to it."
"A little wet, and a little dry."
"Sometimes low and sometimes high."
"Sometimes melt in
the mouth like cardamom"
"otherwise as hard as ginger."
"Life was a piggybank of memories."
"Life was a piggybank of memories."
Bhaiya. What are you up to?
I texted you on whatsapp.
Keep it down there.
I thought its one
of your older messages
which I then would have
to forward to 11 people.
And I don't have the time.
There are some people who
have all the time in the world
and forward messages.
Even I don't have time.
My husband has been keeping me busy.
We're renovating our home.
Rebuilding the entire first floor.
He's borrowed money from the Committee.
I seeso it was you who borrowed
money from the Committee this time.
No. This is another one.
He's been investing in a number of them.
People cannot be trusted these days.
Like the incident in Alley no. 04.
The cable guy fled with everyone's money.
- Really?
- Yes.
I even sent its video on whatsApp.
The people gave him a sound thrashing.
Really, dear, I couldn't even watch.
- But, how did you get injured?
- This is nothing.
If you ever renovate your home..
..then you can keep your
stuff over at our place.
No. We never store trash on our terrace.
We sell it off.
But some people like to hog all the junk.
We don't either.
But I guess there's still
time before you renovate your home.
Not at all.
Even we are thinking
about renovating our home.
My husband's been investing too.
Yeahand soon
your children will get jobs.
- Did Annu clear his SSC?
- No, he's still trying.
He's been working really hard.
I am sure he'll clear it this year.
He's not too smart in his studies.
I met him when I went
to link my Aadhar card (ID).
He was smoking a cigarette.
I was wondering whether
I should tell you or not.
Not at all,
I am sure you saw someone else.
Annu doesn't indulge in such bad habits.
Yes, it must be someone else.
But he looked like Annu.
You'll have to renovate your home
before his wedding.
No. We'll do it much earlier.
And he's just 22.
These days boys don't get
married before they turn 30.
Yeah
And he'll turn 30 by
the time he finds a job.
Annu.
Annu.
- I think someone's at the door.
- Yeah.
Annu.
He must be busy studying.
I'll go take a look.
Annu.
Annu.
He must be studying.
Good for nothing, and
not to mention he's
a complete embarrassment.
Don't you hear the doorbell?
- I am eating.
- Eating
What happened?
Aman. What happened?
Did someone hit you?
Huh?
Annu, come out.
Come out.
Someone hit Aman.
What happened?
Why aren't you saying something?
What happened?
What happened, Aman?
Tell me. What happened?
Tell us.
Mom is asking.
Who hit you?
What happened?
I was playing in the park
when Ravi from Lane no. 4 arrived
and wanted to bowl.
But when I refused he hit me.
Ravi, who?
The cable guy's son who ran
away with the Committee's money?
That bloody Ravi
- Calm down.
- Where is my phone?
Where is my phone?
Calm down. Calm down.
You won't' get into a fight.
- You won't hit him?
- Where are your friends?
They are still getting thrashed
and I came home with my bat.
You did the right thing, son.
I'll go talk to his mother right now.
What go and talk?
You're not going to talk to anyone?
I will talk to him now.
Lucky.
Where are you?
Buying bananas?
My brother's been beaten up.
Yes, Lucky. It was Ravi.
The cable guy's son who ran
away with the Committee's money?
Stop trying to justify him.
Get to the ground with your boys,
understand.
Go get a chain.
No.
No.
We're going to show
them once and for all today.
Those boys are in for trouble today.
Gather around all your
boys and get to the ground.
He hit my brother. That bloody
- Now hang up.
- Come on.
Hit him with this bat.
No, no, no, no.
Where do you think you're going?
Come on.
Come.
You won't go anywhere, Annu.
Wait.
Aman. Annu.
'The women in this country have
an infallible weapon at their disposal'
'right from the time
they become mothers.'
'For most of the mothers,
this weapon is their temper'
'and they use it to
keep things under control.'
'But some things are
beyond its influence.'
'And that's when she
resorts to her other weapon.'
'Papa, of course.'
It was entirely his fault.
All he asked was to let him bowl
but he tried to be a wise guy.
You could've ruined our friendship..
..not to say severed our
cable connection for good.
Who was it?
That Ravi from Lane no. 4.
The cable guy's son, who
Yes, The cable guy's son
who fled with everyone's money.
And I have a video about him.
Do you want to see it?
Do you?
What am I trying to
explain to you?
If someone hits his younger brother,
it's natural for his blood to boil.
Yes.
They didn't get in a fight,
go get me some tea.
It must be boiling now, like you.
I wish I had daughters instead.
At least they could've
lent me a hand in the kitchen.
Girls of his age only know how
to make instant noodles and Musically.
What's that?
Show him.
I am talking about you.
"Your love has made me"
Why do you see videos of guys?
By the way, who brought this pineapple?
I told Lucky to get
something to hit the guy.
Since he was at the market,
he brought this pineapple.
So
Can we have pineapple with tea?
What's wrong?
- What's wrong?
- Nothing is wrong.
What do you want me to say?
Nothing is wrong.
Nothing at all.
- Annu, say sorry to your mom.
- But
No, no, don't tell him to apologize.
Tell him to embarrass
me some more in the locality.
- How did I embarrass you?
- What else do you do?
I study hard,
I exercise and go to coaching classes.
- Did you go today?
- I
Because he got in trouble today.
Wonderful, son.
How do you hope to find a job like this?
And married too?
I'll cover up what I missed
and I am not getting
married before I turn 30.
Let me make that clear.
Son, when I turned 30
even your class 3
teacher used to hit on me.
She looked just like
Anuradha Porwal, I swear.
Yeahbecause you look like Anil Kapoor,
don't you?
I am sure she even wrote you
a love letter with her blood.
Show me.
Where are you hiding it?
In which closet?
Show me.
Show me.
Shut up!
If this continues,
Annu, you will never get a job.
And never get married
and even this home will
continue to be the way it is.
And you can stay right here.
In this home.
Just like this.
No.
The home needs urgent renovation.
Hmmm The home needs urgent renovation.
You're right,
the home needs urgent renovation.
We'll have a staircase up there,
and below it, we'll build a bathroom.
No, we'll have separate bathrooms.
You're right, father.
If ones bathing and the other wants to
use the loo, then that will be a problem.
Yes.
And you visit the bathroom
atleast five times a day.
Wait. I'll tell you.
The staircase won't go straight,
we'll make it spiral.
First the bathroom,
then the loo, and the kitchen.
I see, so you want to build
the kitchen next to the loo.
We'll install tiles here first,
then wooden cabinets on this side.
And a big fridge on this side.
I am thinking let's first
break the house down and
No. My father built this house.
- He personally built every brick
- Father.
Grandpa even built the roof,
but unfinished.
You broke it down and made a new one.
And your father only built
this house but never lived here.
Don't get emotional.
Mom, we'll build an English bathroom.
No. Indian toilets are better.
Haven't you seen Film 'Piku'?
Amitabh Bachchan's constipation
problems were cleared.
- Where did he go?
- Indian toilet.
Yeah
But it will be very
problematic when you get old.
Imagine the plight of your knees.
That's right, Annu.
Fine. We'll build an Indian loo below,
and an English one above.
- Right.
- That reminds me.
We'll build a room instead of the hall.
The room will open towards the kitchen.
And we'll have open space over here.
What say?
Mr. Rathi.
Mishra speaking. From Lane no. 7.
From the electricity department.
What is the rate of bricks these days?
And cement?
That's too expensive.
Back in the days,
bricks would cost only a rupee.
No. We're renovating our home
Mr. Rathi, I'll call you up later.
Let's talk at your shop, okay.
Goodnight. Hang up.
Aren't you going too fast?
Call up the carpenter as well.
We'll have to find a good carpenter
What is this garbage
you've piled up here?
Get rid of it.
Give it to the junk seller.
That's not ours,
it belongs to Bittoo's mother.
She gave me a hard day today.
That's all she can do actually.
Don't say that.
She is our mother's best friend.
Yesand my best friend was
saying that she saw you smoking.
- What?
- You were smoking?
No, no, no
No, mom. No, father, that's not true.
Don't believe her.
Do you know what happened
with her at Shani market?
What?
You don't know.
No.
She went to brother
Bille's shop to buy a suit.
Now, brother Bille being brother Bille.
He refused to give it in 150 rupees.
She stood there at
his shop for over an hour.
Kept saying to his customers don't
buy from him, his products are overpriced.
don't buy from him,
his products are overpriced.
Then he called up his wife.
She came down immediately.
That Punjabi lady, who eats non-veg
She taught her a lesson, she cleaned
her clock, in the middle of the road.
Every other person who
came along took a chance too.
Even her video is
circulated in the village.
And now she's covered in bandages.
Listen
Stay away from that creepy woman.
Don't try to teach me.
What do we do now?
What else? Ignore her.
What about the house?
Ohhthat.
Let's make a budget first.
So that's for the iron rods.
Yes, father.
Now for the bricks, 20.
Don't forget the sand and stones.
Yeah
- What about gravel?
- I already added that with grit.
Andlabour.
Yes, Labour.
That comes to
That's about it.
What's the total?
Father, lets put it on hold.
or let's get it build.
Yes, but we'll have to borrow money.
Meaning we'll need a loan.
And you haven't saved up any money either.
Listen, let's not be hasty.
It's not like homes are built every day.
We'll do it once he finds a job.
And we'll do a good job when we do.
Well, it's getting really late.
I've to finish making dinner as well.
- Listen.
Yes.
How about some chocolate Ice-cream?
After dinner.
Annu, go get some ice-cream after dinner.
Okay. Let me take some rest now.
Let's go.
Your demands are never-ending.
Father teach me to woo girls.
Staircases from here
'One can often see
in the homes of India'
'when the mother gets
restless over some issue.'
'Be it the elder son's job,
younger one's wet pants..'
'..or their own home.'
'Her restlessness never
demands a solution.'
'And even if she does,
all she wants is an assurance.'
'Just assurance.'
'And these assurances
turn into anecdotes.'
'and gets deposited in the
bank of memories.'
Annu, go get some curd from the diary.
And he still owes me 5 rupees for
the milk I bought from him in the morning.
Don't forget that.
Are you making a salad?
Don't forget to use cucumbers.
With salt.
Where are you going?
I am going to take a
bath because it's too hot.
If I see your underwear
in the washing machine again
then I will tear it apart.
You and your underwear.
Understand.
Now get lost.
What's so funny?
Go and get milk.
I mean curd.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
What?
What are you making with the curd?
Oh, God. Mom. Not that again.
What?
Yellow rice with potatoes?
It's called Tehri.
It's called a disappointment.
"What spell did you cast on me,
o magician."
Everyday they leave their underwear in the machine.
All grown up,
but they haven't learnt to wash their underwear.
"What spell did you cast on me,
o magician."
"What spell did you cast on me, o magician."
- Moreover they reuse it without washing.

I'm going to give him an earful

And now it only shows up every Sunday.
Go ahead. Feast on it.

I am preparing for the SSC exam.
Do you even know what it means?
Staff Selection Commission.
Once I get selected,
I will give it back with interest.
No need to seek retribution.
The least you can do is fix this place.
It will be as good
as exacting revenge on me.
Hold this.
No one wants to talk straight.
Do you?
Fine, I am going.
Look at this.
She's made yellow
rice again with potatoes.
It's called 'Tehri'.
No, it's called a disappointment.
Stop calling names,
because that's exactly why..
..you don't get any nutrition.
- Just eat what I've made.
- Do I have a choice?
If you want choices,
then go stay at a hotel.
Oh, God Mom.

What do you want me to say?
Nothing is wrong.
Nothing at all.

I study hard,
I exercise and go to coaching classes.
- Did you go today?
- I
Because he got in trouble today.
Wonderful, son.
How do you hope to find a job like this?
And married too?
I'll cover up what I missed
and I am not getting
married before I turn 30.
Let me make that clear.
Son, when I turned 30
even your class 3
teacher used to hit on me.
She looked just like
Anuradha Porwal, I swear.
Yeahbecause you look like Anil Kapoor,
don't you?
I am sure she even wrote you
a love letter with her blood.
Show me.
Where are you hiding it?
In which closet?
Show me.
Show me.
Shut up!
If this continues,
Annu, you will never get a job.
And never get married
and even this home will
continue to be the way it is.
And you can stay right here.
In this home.
Just like this.
No.
The home needs urgent renovation.
Hmmm The home needs urgent renovation.
You're right,
the home needs urgent renovation.
We'll have a staircase up there,
and below it, we'll build a bathroom.
No, we'll have separate bathrooms.
You're right, father.
If ones bathing and the other wants to
use the loo, then that will be a problem.
Yes.
And you visit the bathroom
atleast five times a day.
Wait. I'll tell you.
The staircase won't go straight,
we'll make it spiral.
First the bathroom,
then the loo, and the kitchen.
I see, so you want to build
the kitchen next to the loo.
We'll install tiles here first,
then wooden cabinets on this side.
And a big fridge on this side.
I am thinking let's first
break the house down and
No. My father built this house.
- He personally built every brick
- Father.
Grandpa even built the roof,
but unfinished.
You broke it down and made a new one.
And your father only built
this house but never lived here.
Don't get emotional.
Mom, we'll build an English bathroom.
No. Indian toilets are better.
Haven't you seen Film 'Piku'?
Amitabh Bachchan's constipation
problems were cleared.
- Where did he go?
- Indian toilet.
Yeah
But it will be very
problematic when you get old.
Imagine the plight of your knees.
That's right, Annu.
Fine. We'll build an Indian loo below,
and an English one above.
- Right.
- That reminds me.
We'll build a room instead of the hall.
The room will open towards the kitchen.
And we'll have open space over here.
What say?
Mr. Rathi.
Mishra speaking. From Lane no. 7.
From the electricity department.
What is the rate of bricks these days?
And cement?
That's too expensive.
Back in the days,
bricks would cost only a rupee.
No. We're renovating our home
Mr. Rathi, I'll call you up later.
Let's talk at your shop, okay.
Goodnight. Hang up.
Aren't you going too fast?
Call up the carpenter as well.
We'll have to find a good carpenter
What is this garbage
you've piled up here?
Get rid of it.
Give it to the junk seller.
That's not ours,
it belongs to Bittoo's mother.
She gave me a hard day today.
That's all she can do actually.
Don't say that.
She is our mother's best friend.
Yesand my best friend was
saying that she saw you smoking.
- What?
- You were smoking?
No, no, no
No, mom. No, father, that's not true.
Don't believe her.
Do you know what happened
with her at Shani market?
What?
You don't know.
No.
She went to brother
Bille's shop to buy a suit.
Now, brother Bille being brother Bille.
He refused to give it in 150 rupees.
She stood there at
his shop for over an hour.
Kept saying to his customers don't
buy from him, his products are overpriced.
don't buy from him,
his products are overpriced.
Then he called up his wife.
She came down immediately.
That Punjabi lady, who eats non-veg
She taught her a lesson, she cleaned
her clock, in the middle of the road.
Every other person who
came along took a chance too.
Even her video is
circulated in the village.
And now she's covered in bandages.
Listen
Stay away from that creepy woman.
Don't try to teach me.
What do we do now?
What else? Ignore her.
What about the house?
Ohhthat.
Let's make a budget first.
So that's for the iron rods.
Yes, father.
Now for the bricks, 20.
Don't forget the sand and stones.
Yeah
- What about gravel?
- I already added that with grit.
Andlabour.
Yes, Labour.
That comes to
That's about it.
What's the total?
Father, lets put it on hold.
or let's get it build.
Yes, but we'll have to borrow money.
Meaning we'll need a loan.
And you haven't saved up any money either.
Listen, let's not be hasty.
It's not like homes are built every day.
We'll do it once he finds a job.
And we'll do a good job when we do.
Well, it's getting really late.
I've to finish making dinner as well.
- Listen.
Yes.
How about some chocolate Ice-cream?
After dinner.
Annu, go get some ice-cream after dinner.
Okay. Let me take some rest now.
Let's go.
Your demands are never-ending.
Father teach me to woo girls.
Staircases from here
'One can often see
in the homes of India'
'when the mother gets
restless over some issue.'
'Be it the elder son's job,
younger one's wet pants..'
'..or their own home.'
'Her restlessness never
demands a solution.'
'And even if she does,
all she wants is an assurance.'
'Just assurance.'
'And these assurances
turn into anecdotes.'
'and gets deposited in the
bank of memories.'
Annu, go get some curd from the diary.
And he still owes me 5 rupees for
the milk I bought from him in the morning.
Don't forget that.
Are you making a salad?
Don't forget to use cucumbers.
With salt.
Where are you going?
I am going to take a
bath because it's too hot.
If I see your underwear
in the washing machine again
then I will tear it apart.
You and your underwear.
Understand.
Now get lost.
What's so funny?
Go and get milk.
I mean curd.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
What?
What are you making with the curd?
Oh, God. Mom. Not that again.
What?
Yellow rice with potatoes?
It's called Tehri.
It's called a disappointment.
