Saved by a hair's breadth

Wait, there's no hair!

Cut!

Madam, I can't see any emotions.

You're looking very paavam.

You need to be a little bold, okay?

-Let's take one more shot.

-What do you mean by "bold"?

Sexy!

Saved by a hair's breadth

Wait, there's no hair.

Somebody save me, please!

No, ma'am, this is Mithila's van.

Your van is up ahead.

-Let's go there?

-Okay.

My name is spelt wrong here.

Sorry, ma'am, we'll get it changed.

-Change it to double "E."

-Yes, no problem.

Okay. Please ask the director

to come speak to me.

-Okay, sure. Thank you.

-Thank you.

-Ms. Neena, hi! How are you?

-Hi, Sonam, I'm fine.

I am so excited I'm directing you!

This is the coolest thing I've ever done!

Yeah, but I'm very nervous

looking at these clothes and all.

Okay, so I didn't exactly understand

what the video is about.

See, in Mad Memsaabs,

we take these women's issues

and make comedy sketches of them.

I read your Instagram post,

and I was like,

"We have to make something

about women and age, you know?"

I know, yeah. I heard the song,

"Hey, Who Are You Calling Aunty?"

Right? It's cool, right?

Cool, catchy,

and I think I can relate to it.

Exactly! I mean, women are so hot

at any age, right?

-And you are the face of those women!

-Now you're embarrassing me.

No, no, nothing like that.

You are perfect.

I'm so excited.

I'll see you on the floor, right?

-Yeah, thank you. Okay.

-Okay!

And action!

A fairylike glow

Limitless love

Cut, cut, cut!

Madam, I am telling you "sex appeal,"

and you're coming with full hair on legs!

But what will I wax if there's no hair?

No, no, no!

Never show hair in advertising!

Please, madam.

You have to remove and come.

-Madam, should I shave it for you?

-No, thank you. I'll do it.

Go.

Wonder where these people come from.

Five and six.

And five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four. Come back again.

-Wow, Neena.

-Hi!

-Hi, you look stunning.

-Thank you.

-I'm Dara, the DP.

-Okay.

Yeah. I'm only doing this

because I found out you were in it.

-So sweet.

-I'm such a fan.

-Thank you.

-I mean, "Choli ke Peeche" made me a man.

Oh, my God, thank you so much.

Hey, spot boy, get a chair.

No need. I was getting bored in

the vanity van so I thought I'd come here

-and watch.

-Yeah, sure. Suzy!

-Yes, sir?

-Are we planning on sh**ting today or not?

Where's Ms. Mithila?

Sir, her costume took ages to arrive,

and then a comb got stuck in her hair.

Now her blood pressure is low,

so she's ordered a salad

from Kitchen Garden.

So as soon as it comes, we'll start, sir?

-No problem.

-Sorry.

-I'll rehearse a bit till then.

-Yeah, sure.

Sonam, let's do one rehearsal

with Ms. Neena.

-Okay, let's.

-Let's go, okay.

So the last one is step, then hit

-Hello!

-Hello, ma'am. Please come.

-What do you want me to do?

-Please, come. It's very simple.

First, hands straight ahead.

Perfect. You're going right,

left, right, and left.

Right, left, open, back.

-Yes!

-Perfect, ma'am.

Superb, superb!

-How was it?

-Fabulous!

-Come on, let's go. And

-Let's go. I don't have all day.

Guys, Mithila's here. Come.

Hi!

Cool.

-I'll show you the steps?

-Sure.

Okay, guys, let's go.

Five, six, seven, eight.

And cross, out, forward, back.

Right, left, open, back.

Perfect, guys.

-Wanna see it one more time?

-Yes.

Okay, guys, let's go one more time.

And five, six, seven, eight.

Cross, open, forward, back.

Right, left, open, back.

Perfect, ma'am.

I'm not getting it.

-It's very easy.

-And quite tacky, according to me.

What is this, Sonam?

-I mean, I'm doing you a favor anyway?

-Yes

By the way,

what else have you choreographed?

Ma'am, I've done a lot of videos.

Sonam, shall we do Ms. Neena's solo first?

And then we can do Mithila's right after.

-Okay

-Sure.

-Let's go, okay.

-Okay.

-Ms. Neena, are you okay with that?

-Yeah, sure.

-Okay. Let's go for a take.

-Yes.

Perfect. We'll do one solo with Ms. Neena.

And let's go.

And roll sound, roll camera.

Great. And music!

Hey, who are you calling aunty?

Five, six, seven. Go!

Perfect. That was very good.

Cut, cut, cut. Superb, superb!

Let's do one more, okay?

Just a minor mess-up. One more.

Okay, one more. Back to one.

-You want to chill in the van, Mithila?

-No.

Actually, I'll give this a shot.

Really? Guys, guys, Mithila's also coming.

And we're doing one more take.

There are so many wax strips here.

Why are you shaving?

They're dummies, man.

Welcome to the world of advertising.

Cool design, though.

It's an old print, I just put it on it.

You slapped them with an old design

and they paid you for it also?

You've become Pritam da.

Look, I'm already quite irritated.

Don't make it worse, okay?

Why're you irritated?

I mean, look around me, man!

This embarrassing product

and this tacky crew.

The things I have to do for money.

And that Vinay.

Can't find a buyer for the house,

and Manav has used me.

And this hair. Always a problem.

Are you listening to yourself?

Poor little Masaba.

She didn't have money,

but selling an old design

for lakhs of rupees solved that.

You couldn't find a house, but your boss

gave you a fantastic apartment.

You feeling lonely?

Your ex gave you sex also!

What was it about your hair?

Yeah, that does look like sh*t.

What's your problem, Gia?

Wait, are we talking about my problems?

Or are we still speaking about yours?

What do you mean?

I mean, ever since

this separation has happened,

on every channel

it's just been the Masaba show.

And I understand

it's a very tough time for you.

But the rest of us

also have problems in our lives, okay?

Okay.

You know how many months I've been

working my a*s off to relaunch this bar?

You think it's easy, all this?

Contractors, permissions, licenses,

BMC, decor, food, menu, entertainment.

Everything is on my shoulders

and I've never done any of this before.

But not once have you asked me,

"Gia, are you okay?

Do you need any help? Is everything fine?"

Not once, yeah?

I asked you for one thing,

to help me with my opening night invite.

Did you even look at it?

Of course not, 'cause you only know

how to take help,

but you never f*cking give it.

-Look, I've been really hectic, okay?

-You think my day wasn't hectic?

You called, you said,

"I'm feeling uncomfortable."

I left everything to come here.

You should have told me if it's a problem.

I would have managed something.

Yeah, so you manage now.

You have a lot of problems,

you deal with them yourself.

-I'll deal with my own problems myself.

-Gia

My family's been running

this business for years

despite the fact

that we are running in losses.

This is my last shot

at keeping my family legacy alive,

and I want to make my dad proud.

But what are any of these problems

in front of yours, right?

-Have a great day.

-Gia, come on.

-Morning, ma'am, here you go.

-Morning, thanks.

Seriously, Gia

Are you still sulking?

I've called so many times.

At least reply with an emoji.

Yes, madam.

-You called?

-Aren't you coming to work?

Did we plan to meet today?

Sorry, I'm still in bed.

I can see that.

All by yourself?

Who are you talking to

so early in the morning?

Sorry, man.

It's a work call, AB.

Jogi is Jo-g*y?

Look, I think I called you

at the wrong time.

Chill, ma'am. I called you.

What did you want to talk about?

Dhairya's coming, so I just thought

you should be around.

Give me five minutes, I'm nearby.

I'm coming, okay?

Okay.

I thought there was something between us,

but he's got something else brewing.

Ma'am, Dhairya sir has come.

Dhairya, you don't have to come

for inspection every day, okay?

We're working on the new collection.

I've taken your advice

and gotten a new collaborator.

That's wonderful.

Can I see it?

No, I mean it's in the middle

of the collection now.

It disrupts my creative flow.

Your creative flow?

Okay. Whenever it's ready,

you let me know.

Sure. Anything else?

No.

We were just passing by and we thought

maybe we'd come and say hi.

Really, D?

Well, there is

I wanna ask you for a favor.

Okay. What favor?

It's just that Pax is bored following me

around for business meetings

and she seems to have taken

a real interest in

all of this.

You mean my work?

Of course. So, what I was thinking

is she can or if maybe--

What D is trying to say

is I wanna work here!

Be an intern or something? Anything.

Madam, I'm here.

Let's go smoke a joint

before your boss arrives.

Dhairya, meet Jogi.

-Hi, bro. You're already here. Jogi.

-Dhairya.

So, Jogi is our new collaborator

and a very, very talented artist.

We're working

on some solid ideas together.

Ideas? What ideas?

Ideas for the collection, Jogi.

What, that umbrella print?

It's a terrible idea. Nobody will wear it.

What other ideas?

We haven't had a good idea yet.

At least someone's speaking

the truth here.

I always speak the truth, bro.

I like you, Jogi.

Give me your number.

From now on,

I'll just coordinate with you.

-9974--

-Hello, one second!

The name written outside

is still mine, okay?

So you'll talk to me.

And you are late. So please get to work.

And, you,

can you please stop babysitting me?

Work is progressing well.

You don't need to come here

or call every day.

You had one job, D. Wait!

Listen, he's not my real dad, okay?

Please don't judge me based on him.

I really, really want this internship.

Yeah, you can come here whenever you want,

don't worry.

But just please don't bring him along.

I look at him and I want to scream.

Yeah, he made my mom scream, too.

What?

They were always yelling at each other.

Yeah, I can relate to that.

-Yeah, Mom?

-Listen.

I've sent you a link to the music video.

Watch it and tell me what you think.

Okay, I'm checking it. One second.

Want to see Mom's new video?

-Yeah.

-Sure.

Oh, my God, that's your mom?

She's so cool. I love it.

-Amazing.

-It's awesome!

-It's nice.

-She's awesome!

-So good!

-It's so going to be viral!

Okay, I have to call her.

Yes, tell me.

Mom, that was so f*cking cool!

I'm going to put it

on Instagram right now.

I don't look stupid, right?

You're a rockstar!

Who's that?

That's Pax, my new intern.

Okay, listen, Mom,

we have to celebrate this.

I'm calling everybody home, okay?

No, no, no.

It's very embarrassing. No screening!

Embarrassing? It'll be fab!

-Don't argue with me, it's done.

-Okay, fine.

Bye.

She's excited.

Oh, man, I'm so nervous.

-Guys, guys, guys. Let's see.

-Let's start.

Masaba, don't play it, don't play it!

-Let's see this.

-Madam, let's play it.

Okay, come on, let's go.

-Are we ready?

-Yes!

-Okay.

-Superb.

Play.

-Oh, my God!

-Yes.

The secret to my beauty

We want to see it, Masaba, please.

Would you like to know?

-No, no, one sec.

-No, no!

-Masaba, we want to see it!

-Let it be.

A fairylike glow

Limitless love

-Well done, Masaba!

-It's great!

No, guys, stop it!

Hello?

I shared your video with the family group.

Everyone loved it!

-Masaba!

-Yeah.

Gia didn't come? Where is she?

She's a little busy

with the bar these days.

It's open?

No, but I think

she's busy with the opening night.

-It'll be a good one, right?

-Yeah!

-The video's trending on spot number one.

-No way!

Is there a party going on?

Masaba called a few friends over

to watch the video.

They're all just excited.

It feels so good, really.

-Okay, enjoy!

-Okay, bye!

Thank you, my child.

You made my small video

into such a big thing. Thank you.

Of course, Mom!

You have to celebrate this.

-Okay, listen, I have to go see Gia.

-Okay, go. Bye, bye.

Sorry, the husband called.

-I had to attend it. It was necessary.

-Yeah.

Hi!

It's 2:00 a.m. I was sleeping.

What are you doing here?

How can you be sleeping, Gia?

There's so much work to do for the bar!

There's the alcohol,

you've to plan the menu, decor

What's the entertainment going to be?

And opening night is coming, Gia.

Have you figured what you're gonna do

for the hashtags, Instagram, guest list

Have you decided anything?

Come on, let's get to work.

There's much to do.

So much to do! Come on.

Let's get down to it. Come on.

What?

If there's one person

who could single-handedly run a bar,

and make sure everyone

has a night worth remembering,

it's my bestie Gia.

Join me as I celebrate

this crazy, wonderful woman

on the opening night

of a crazy, wonderful new bar.

It's going to be lit.

-Are you guys having fun?

-Yes!

The next one is my favorite. Let's go.

I love this song!

-Hi, Micky!

-Look who it is!

-This is my date, Andy.

-Hi.

Isn't he just

Okay, guys, please,

if you're posting any photos today,

you know the hashtag?

"GiaTuAbTohAaja."

I'll do my best.

Hey! Thank y'all for coming! Have fun!

What's up? What's happening?

I just want to say thank you

and I love you.

-I love you.

-Firstly, for these "influencer" types,

and I can't believe you managed

to book the band, dude!

I had to!

Love you. Look at dad. He's glowing!

-So happy.

-Hi!

I should be angry with you

more often.

You've become such a good friend.

-Stop taunting me and call for shots.

-Shots!

-Okay, let's get wasted.

-Let's drink to this.

-Vodka shots?

-Okay.

-To growing up.

-Cheers.

Okay. Don't look behind right now, but

Okay.

This is my date, Andy.

-Vinay? He brought a date, too?

-Hi, sweetheart.

Oh, God!

Gehna!

Who invited my ex-husband to this?

Ma'am, I invited everyone

from the guest list

that you gave me from your last event.

f*ck.

-Okay, I have to say hi to him.

-You got this! Chin up.

-Your ex is also here.

-I know, I invited him. Come.

Of course.

-I'm gonna drag her away for a bit.

-Bring her back soon!

Hi, Vinay!

Hey.

-This is--

-Hi, I'm Masaba.

-Of course, I love your clothes.

-Thank you.

I'm Naina, nice to meet you.

-Thank you for having us here.

-Of course.

-So what do you do, Naina?

-I'm a vet.

That's lovely.

Can you tell me where the restroom is?

-Sure, it's right there.

-Okay, I'll be back.

Sweet!

Where did you find a vet?

I was a little lonely,

so I got a goldfish, and

Who has a goldfish, Vinay?

You're so weird.

What's it to you?

You got saved by a hair's breadth, right?

Oh, God, you saw the ad.

Of course I saw the ad! I saw it 50 times.

In fact, Masaba,

I think that is your best work yet.

Seriously. Show me your hand?

Show me, one second

Soft skin

-Such soft skin, Masaba--

-Vinay, stop it.

-Shall we get a drink and go see the band?

-Yeah, sure.

-Okay. We'll see you. Bye.

-See you.

I'm exhausted.

You know, I have to say

I'm very impressed

that you left Cyrus to come here.

We already had a quickie

in the bathroom over there.

But I wouldn't give up

this opportunity, right?

Our sleepovers stopped

completely after your wedding.

A lot of things stopped

after the wedding, right?

But I'm happy you're here.

You know, sometimes I get

very lonely in this house.

You? Lonely?

Why? You are single, you are hot,

you are celebrity.

You just have to sneeze

and the boys will line up.

Where is this line?

I'm tired of sneezing.

Okay, I'm sure

after the divorce announcement,

your DMs must be flooded.

Let's see them. Open your DMs. Let's see.

Open them.

Ninety-nine plus requests! Let's see.

Are you mad? Look at these boys.

Are you mad? I can't go out with them.

Your standards are too high. Just see.

Imagine sleeping with

"Navin, lover for life."

"Hello, babezzzzz."

"Hawr u?"

Then see these guys.

What about this one here?

He is looking decent. Shubham.

"Howz u? Want to go to Africa?

Let's get lost in the woods, babe."

Why does everyone think I'm from Africa?

It's your hair.

Find one decent person?

-"Wanna d8?"

-D8?

"Wanna d8? Hi!"

You know what? Give your phone.

-So sweet, he's so direct.

-Gia

Don't you dare message

anyone from my phone, okay?

I would never.

-What are you doing?

-Sent a message. He's coming over!

Are you mad?

Gia, give my phone back. I'll k*ll you!

Gia! Give my phone, man. Stop it!

Get ready for some sexy time

God

Yeah!

So, how you doing? How you doing?

Cool. I was just looking at the menu--

You don't need any menu!

I know exactly what you want!

Give me your hands!

Just give me your hands!

Trust me! Trust me!

You want the You want the

Pizza!

-Pizza?

-Yes, pizza.

Yes? Okay. Great, we'll get some pizza.

So, what do you do?

Yes do.

No, I mean, like, what do you do?

I'm doing this, like,

electro-funk set on Friday.

So you DJ as well, huh?

-Yeah! You should definitely come.

-I'd love to.

We do the sex now, yes?

-I'm sorry?

-Sex Yes?

I think it's very important for you

to learn to receive love

No!

and also give love.

-Yes?

-No!

-Yes.

-No!

-So, Pax, do you have a boyfriend?

-No.

Good. It's really bad.

It's called "Continental Breakfast."

You haven't seen it?

He's taking a bite of a banana

without peeling it.

Who does that? It's hilarious!

Hold on. Let me show you this one.

No, no, hold up. Wait, one second.

Breathe, Masaba, breathe.

This one here

So, if you look closely,

right, that guy is singing a r*cist song.

So, what did I miss?

This is my manager, Arjun.

-Hi.

-Hi!

Are you guys in the middle

of something or

No, no. He comes to every meeting with me.

-Okay.

-So how's it going, man. You all right?

It's going good.

The last boy I went on a date with

brought his manager along.

What?

That's better. Mine brought his mom along.

-What?

-Oh, God.

Guys, at least they showed up.

-Mine never came.

-You got stood up?

I'd love for you

to photograph me sometime.

You know

who I'd really like to photograph?

-Who?

-Your mom.

-She's hot.

-That she is.

I mean

Man!

I mean, those legs

and it's actually really interesting.

There are two kinds of razor blades

and not many know that.

There's sputtered and there's unsputtered.

And the sputtered ones have

a chromium lining on the side

and they're more premium.

We now manufacture high quality razors

that the international market demands.

And that really is a determining factor.

And in some countries

-It's really interesting

-Wait, what? Is that Dhairya?

Most people can't tell

the difference through their naked eye.

Is he on a date?

that really determines 1,27,

which is the ideal sort of middle ground,

which makes it both malleable but

also sturdy enough to get a good shave.

Now, the international markets

have responded well.

We export

to a bunch of countries, 52 to be exact.

We manufacture double-edged razor blades.

So we actually manufacture in Hyderabad.

Have you ever used

a double-edged razor blade?

Yeah, of course you haven't,

but most people have.

There are other players

in the market, like Supermax

We manufacture these sputtered

razor blades and export

f*ck! f*ck! f*ck!

-Brother, has all the stock come in?

-Yes, ma'am.

Okay, make something fresh for me, please.

Sure, ma'am.

Yo! What's up?

f*ck you, Gia!

I'm not going on any more dates.

I'd rather go to a funeral.

Was the sex good at least?

What sex? Have sex with him?

I just left him at the restaurant.

Okay, never mind that.

Guess who was at the restaurant

over there?

Who?

Mr. Investor

and babysitter extraordinaire.

Dhairya Rana.

"Please forgive me, Mr. Rana."

Actually, Mr. Rana was looking

quite hot tonight.

Are you serious?

-I'll send the picture?

-Please send.

I mean, you think he's hot or what?

I don't know Could be me, I don't know.

See and tell me, okay?

"Do you think he has Big d*ck Energy?"
