Wakaalat from Home (2020–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - Reconciliation - full transcript

For how long do we have to wait?
What do you think happened?

Radhika, how can I guess these things?

So, you can guess when each country
is going to end their lockdown…

…but you can’t guess what has
happened to your own lawyer’s husband?

But nobody is betting on that.

In order to place a bet, you need
two parties - a buyer and a seller.

You need to understand the basics.

Hello hello! Sorry, sorry!
Today’s session is delayed.

The police have come to Rajni’s house,
so she’s caught up with them.

Nothing to worry about, though.

Oh, thank god! Mr. Lobo,
what do you think happened?



I think, luckily, her husband died on his own.

How?

What do you mean, how?
The way regular people die.

Life can be strange.

For instance, I was with
my uncle who was having dinner.

And before we knew it,
he was suddenly on fire.

So, like I said, life can be strange.
You have to live in the moment.

Enjoy yourself!

What do you mean he was suddenly on fire?
Is he a man or some sort of incense?

Mr. Tripathi?

He just left? Ridiculous.

Tripathi is right.

Nonsense! People aren’t flammable.

Not that! He’s right about living
in the moment. Enjoy yourself!



Oh, that. Right. I’ve also been
thinking about that since morning.

We have to live in the moment.
We have to enjoy ourselves.

Today, I’m feeling so liberated.
Look, Shreshtha untied me.

I don’t even know what to
do with my freedom.

First, I thought, I should use the loo.

Then, I thought, perhaps I should
change my underwear first.

I really want to enjoy the basic
pleasures of life, you know?

The basic pleasures of life are smelling
flowers, or staring at the sea.

Changing your underwear is just basic hygiene.

Sujin, don’t you the know the difference
between hygiene and pleasure?

Listen, if you’d been tied to a chair,
and forced to massage a Nepales man…

…hygiene and pleasure
would be the same for you.

Do you think this is fun for me?
To live like this, and look like this?

I’ve gone a whole month
without putting any foundation.

I haven’t even had my eye brows done.

Look at me.

Still, you look cute.

Yes, I know. It’s just my natural glow.

How long will I depend on
natural beauty in this pandemic?

By the way, where did you get those clothes
from? Didn’t Shilpi take all your clothes?

She took them to the laundry.
So sweet. Anyway, Sujin…

I was thinking… you’re right.

Maybe we should stop fighting,
and give this another shot.

Yesterday, when I was doing naked yoga,
with Shilpi, I thought about exactly what…

…Mr. Tripathi was just saying. Even though
he has said it a whole 24 hours later.

We have to live in the

moment and enjoy ourselves.

Yes. I agree. I’ve always said
that we should stop fighting.

In fact, I was telling Shreshtha
this morning, this is no way to live.

I’m peeling garlic in Chembur.

I don’t want to live like this.
I want to be free.

I want to come back home to you.
I really miss you, you know.

I miss those little things that we used
to do. The way you’d do make up…

…for me, to enhance my cheek
bones. Those things were so nice.

Not to say there’s anything missing here.
This place feels just like home.

Shreshtha is a really nice guy.
He really takes care of his servants.

A few days ago, one of his servants died,
and he paid for the entire funeral.

What? He died from COVID?

No, he was overworked.

Ah, okay.

Sujin, promise me, that if we try and start
over, I need a new husband.

What do you mean?

I mean, you should change completely.

I don’t want you to become like Rajni’s husband.

Where I work all the time,

you just

Keep demanding sex, and then one day, you die.

That example was too specific don’t you think?

Just promise me that you will change.

Okay, I promise, I will change.

I just don’t get women. First they
complain that you’ve changed so much.

Then they ask you to change completely.

Radhika? Did you just say that you
were doing NAKED yoga with Shilpi?

Was it completely nude?

Radhika!

Hello! Hello! Listen, Gigolo, I’m just here to tell
you that the session has been pushed to tonight.

The police are still at Rajni’s home.

They’re still at her home meaning?

Yeah. Hey, Kalpesh! Kalpesh!

I’d told you the BMC are coming here for
testing, and you fed them chilli chicken…

thinking it was a tasting? You imbecile!

Tripathi… tonight?

Sorry about starting today’s session late.

It’s okay, Rajni. You’ve been through a lot.
What exactly happened?

Food poisoning. He wasn’t calling
me into the room for sex.

He had an upset stomach. I gave him his
medicines, and put him to sleep.

But he was having trouble breathing.

That’s why Shilpi was teaching me
how to administer mouth-to-mouth.

See, air is important.

Is he fine now?

Last night, I made him
sleep in the guest room.

And when I knocked on the
door this morning, he was gone.

May his soul rest in peace.

No, he isn’t dead. He’s missing.

I called the police myself.
Now they’re looking for him.

I wonder where he is, in this bad state.

The police are looking
for the police? Interesting.

Thank god! This is so much better.
I thought you had killed him. Murder!

Right, guys?

Right.

He is missing. Just like
all my other husbands.

What do you mean your other husbands?

So Radhika, you were saying?

I just thought you’d hit him,
and now he was dead.

Like that one time I hit Sujin, when I
was reporting live on my laptop…

…about the Maharashtra floods and he
just walked behind me, completely naked.

Mocha, you promised you
won’t tell this to anyone.

I told you, I thought I was wearing shorts.

Rajni, where do you think your
husband may have gone?

Do you think he could have been fighting
with someone? I don’t mean you.

And then the other person may have
stabbed him. I don’t mean you.

And then chopped him
into little pieces. I don’t mean-

Mr. Tripathi! Please!

It hasn’t even been 24 hours
since my husband went missing.

How can you be so insensitive?

Sorry, sorry.

Yeah, yeah.

Mr. Lobo, please say nice
things about a missing person.

Rajni, tell us. How did you
guys meet? Was it romantic?

It was 2005, and someone had stolen my phone.
So I went to the police station to file a report.

And the policeman there refused to write a
report unless I agreed to have dinner with him

At first, I was very angry.
But then, seven months passed by.

One thing led to another,
and we were married.

Dominating, eh? Sweet.

Any other qualities, such as, a sense of humour?

No. Actually, he hated comedians.

Have you heard of Kunal Kamra?
My husband broke his hip.

Mocha…

You say it.

Mr. Tripathi and Ms. Rajni, we
have an announcement to make.

Sujin and I have mutually
decided to withdraw our case.

What?!

Yes, we want to give our
marriage a second chance.

Sujin?

Yeah… uh… Radhika has promised
me that she’ll let me live in my house…

…and I can even sit in
the study and place bets.

And I have also promised that I will
let him know every time Shilpi is over.

Especially when he thinks him and I are alone.

Yeah, yeah. See, marriage
is all about transparency.

What is this madness? You can’t
do this! What happens to the flat?

We’ll live in it, together.
Like we used to before.

No, this is not possible.
You’d said you’d give her the flat.

When did that happen?
Nobody ever said anything like that.

Look, we saw what happened to Rajni’s
husband and we - Dhanka! Say something.

We just decided that enough is enough.
We don’t want to fight anymore.

I don’t want to die like Rajni’s husband.

He isn’t dead! He’s just missing!
How many times must I tell you this?

And I promised him that I won’t bathe
nude in milk with Shilpi on the night…

…of the Harvest Full Moon Festival.

Yeah… what?

This cannot be.
This is not fair!

What if when Muhammad Ali was fighting
Joe Frazier, in that infamous boxing match…

…and Frazier said he didn’t want to fight
anymore, and he just wanted to be friends.

That just doesn’t make any sense!

That would never have happened because
many people had bet on that match.

Nobody has bet on this divorce.

I have.

Don’t piss me off. Shreshtha has untied my legs.
Should I come and show you what’s what?

You can’t break the lockdown.

Also, we get a say in your divorce.

Mr. Tripathi, how do you get a say? Say, say?

We’ve been meeting on all these days for these
sessions. We’ve been screaming and fighting.

It’s like a marriage.

I think what Mr. Tripathi is trying to say is that -

You keep shut! Shut up!

You are always trying to protect these kids.

I just want to keep the peace of this house.

Radhika… Radhika… take a
good look at this gigolo’s face.

Hey gigolo, show her your face.
Turn and show her your whole face.

No, no, no. This is my best profile.

Did you see that? He is two faced.
He won’t even show you his whole face.

But Papa, this is wrong. You can criticize him
all you want. But don’t say anything about his face.

I love that face. I have seen both sides of that face.

I’ve applied make up to that face
for 12 years, with my own hands.

And to me, both sides are the same.

Yeah! Thank you, baby.

Here, look at this.

Did you see it?
Are you happy now?

With me, what you see is what you get.
That’s what I told the casting director…

…who asked me if I could do the
scene nude. I said, “yes, why not?”

Not only am I beautiful on the outside,
but also on the inside. See!

Gigolo - close your shop.

Radhika, think about this clearly.

After 18 years of being married,
what are you even getting?

And empty bank account,
and 20 lakhs stolen?

Sujin, you didn’t even bother to consult me.
Just made your own decision?

I’m so sorry, mom… uh… I mean, Rajni.
This is something that just happened.

Dhanka, call me. I’m signing off.

Yeah, fuck this shit.
Even I’m leaving.

Hey! No!

Shit! Shit!

I’ve only received 25% of my payment.

I hope this case isn’t closed.

Mr. Tripathi…

Uh, thank you.

Thank you? For what?

I know that you have a crush on me.

What?

It’s okay. It’s normal.
It happens to all men.

You saw how my husband was
troubling me, and you sent me Chinese food.

I understand everything. Thank you.

No! Not all all. What do you understand?
What you’re understanding is not true.

You are wrong! Completely wrong!

Don’t worry. It’ll be our little secret.

What secret? There is no secret!

Look, you’re just going to
have to try and get over me, okay?

Get over you? I haven’t even
begun thinking about you.

Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye.

No! Listen to me!

Hello? Hello, madam?

I sent you the food as a bribe, so
that your client sells the flat in Bandra.

There’s nothing remotely romantic intended.

I have no interest in any other human being.

Madam! Madam!
I’m not in the mood for love!
