:11:00
We'd like to introduce ourselves, if we may.
:11:02
I'm Balraj.
:11:04
- This is my sister Kiran.
- Hi.
:11:06
- And my good friend William Darcy.
- Hello.
:11:08
Very nice to meet you all.
Er, I'm Chaman Bakshi.
:11:11
May I introduce my family to you?
:11:13
This is my wife, Mrs Manurma Rama Bakshi,
:11:16
and, er, these are my daughters:
Jaya, Lalita, that's Lakhi and that's Maya.
:11:20
Four daughters in one family!
God has blessed you four times over.
:11:23
Such a pleasure
to make your fine acquaintance.
:11:27
BALRAJ: Would you do me the honour?
:11:29
Papa?
:11:31
Of course, of course. Please, please.
:11:34
Darcy, why don't you ask
one of Jaya's lovely sisters to dance as well?
:11:38
No.
:11:40
Um, I'm sorry. I can't. I must get back and work.
:11:42
I have a conference call.
:11:44
But it's easier than you think.
:11:46
- I can show you.
- No, I really can't.
:11:48
Maybe another time.
:11:55
Rich American.
:11:57
What does he think -
we are not good enough for him?
:12:05
(Low conversation)
:12:07
You should have seen Mrs Lamba's face.
:12:10
Balraj didn't dance with any other girl all night.
:12:14
I knew he wouldn't be able to resist
my pretty Jaya's charms.
:12:17
Mama.
:12:18
Or yours, I'm sure.
:12:20
Just imagine - if Jaya went to live in UK,
we could visit her any time.
:12:25
I would hate to have my daughters so far away.
:12:27
But we have so many.
One or two can go abroad.
:12:30
They'll earn more. God knows they need to,
:12:32
because we can't afford to give them
all decent dowries.
:12:35
Perhaps we should have drowned some
at the time of their birth.
:12:38
We wouldn't have had these problems
if we had gone to US.
:12:41
Did I tell you about this fellow
who went to America and made it rich?
:12:44
My brother did all the paperwork to sponsor us
but you didn't want to leave.
:12:47
This fellow went to America
and bought a huge American house
:12:50
and built three swimming pools.
:12:52
Now he owns three Subway franchises
in New Jersey.
:12:54
And what do we have?
:12:56
An old house, an old farm, and new bills.
