Not Synced
Mamma!
-
Not Synced
Who's there?
-
Not Synced
Is that Solomon?
Yes!
-
Not Synced
You've grown up. Last time I saw you, you were this big (showing pinky finger). It's been 6-7 years hasn't it?
-
Not Synced
How's it been since you've come to Mysore?
It's not bad.
-
Not Synced
How's your younger sister?
She's good.
What's her name again?
Shiny.
-
Not Synced
Shiny.
Ah yes, Shiny.
-
Not Synced
What is she upto?
-
Not Synced
She's in 9th standard.
Wow how time flies!
-
Not Synced
Do you remember the time we went fishing and Shiny was crying to come with us?
-
Not Synced
Then your mom came and scolded her. I remember it like yesterday?
-
Not Synced
Where's the madam of the house?
-
Not Synced
She's asleep. She may not have known you came.
-
Not Synced
No, she's lying awake angry. She always wakes up with the first blare of the horn.
-
Not Synced
Mom! It's me!
-
Not Synced
See. I told you.She's just angry.
-
Not Synced
If I drive here late at night, she's told me that she won't open the door. That's her condition.
-
Not Synced
Then I'll sleep here in the truck! I won't come inside until you (mom) come out .
-
Not Synced
Solomon! You can sleep in my room.
-
Not Synced
Don't sleep in the lorry!
-
Not Synced
I'm joking. I'm just messing with Mom.
-
Not Synced
She'll come out. You'll see.
-
Not Synced
So why are you in this kind of vehicle?
-
Not Synced
Rita Aunty said that a long time ago, when you were driving this around she convinced you to stop.
-
Not Synced
Wow so she told you everything?
-
Not Synced
Not just that. She's told me your life story from birth to till yesterday.
-
Not Synced
Rita Aunty only has one subject to talk about. Don't you know?It's you.
-
Not Synced
Ha (Yes)
-
Not Synced
I've been here for two months now, and there hasn't been a day that
-
Not Synced
Rita Aunty hasn't talked about you.
-
Not Synced
Anthony, you must've really gotten bored!
-
Not Synced
Nah. Nothing like that.
-
Not Synced
To tell the truth, I haven't been truck driving for 4-5 years.
-
Not Synced
And it was never a full time job like Mom thought it was
-
Not Synced
I started doing so because I liked to drive.
-
Not Synced
And from that experience, I gained a lot of friends.
-
Not Synced
And sometimes, I get these kind of vehicles in my hands for a 1-2 day gap.
-
Not Synced
He (referring to the truck) is in repair. He won't stay filled!
-
Not Synced
The whole way he's urinating his cargo!
-
Not Synced
So he's not running for a while.
-
Not Synced
I just brought it along to scare Mom.
-
Not Synced
If she saw that I'm back to driving this, she'll throw a fit!
-
Not Synced
Mmmmmhmmm! (MOM) Yes. Yes.
-
Not Synced
I'm standing right here.
-
Not Synced
Haha. Oh! So you've heard everything!
-
Not Synced
I've heard everything!
-
Not Synced
So my plans gone awry!
-
Not Synced
I don't know about that.
-
Not Synced
I can't tell when you're lying or when you're telling the truth!
-
Not Synced
Oh Mom! I only tell the truth,
-
Not Synced
I've only told the truth, and will always tell the truth!
-
Not Synced
You promised upon my head that
-
Not Synced
during the midnight hours you won't drive this
-
Not Synced
or any other vehicle!
-
Not Synced
But mom, when I left Bangalore, it was only dusk
-
Not Synced
Even now it's not really midnight. . .
-
Not Synced
Oh, of course not . . .
-
Not Synced
It's only 2:30 in the morning
-
Not Synced
Come along and go to sleep.
-
Not Synced
Oh no! Go to sleep?
-
Not Synced
It's not time to sleep.
-
Not Synced
Then you don't have to sleep. The rest of us will sleep.
-
Not Synced
How can I sleep?
-
Not Synced
I am hungry like no other!
-
Not Synced
I need some food.
-
Not Synced
And that too not something from the fridge.
-
Not Synced
It needs to be something hot that you make!
-
Not Synced
Here. That's enough.
-
Not Synced
Oh! This is nothing
-
Not Synced
What kind of eating is this?!?! And that too
-
Not Synced
in this unreasonable hour!
-
Not Synced
You've eaten 6 or 7 now!
-
Not Synced
You must be thinking it's that many because you're sleepy.
-
Not Synced
Adding this one, it's only been 3.
-
Not Synced
Right Anthony?
-
Not Synced
Yes
-
Not Synced
You've only gotten here, and already
-
Not Synced
you're making him (Anthony) your new disciple!
-
Not Synced
Anthony, if you're sleepy, go to bed.
-
Not Synced
No, I'm no longer sleepy.
-
Not Synced
See. Now, his sleep is also gone.
-
Not Synced
In the morning, this boy has class!
-
Not Synced
Oh no, Anthony isn't sleeping tonight
-
Not Synced
We're seeing each other since 7 years.
-
Not Synced
Right?
-
Not Synced
Yes
-
Not Synced
Here, eat one.
-
Not Synced
Some really good chili chicken. Its' the best combination
-
Not Synced
with hot chapathi.
-
Not Synced
So where's Mary?
-
Not Synced
Mmmm . . . Now don't you try to wake her up as well.
-
Not Synced
Oh!
-
Not Synced
Mary is asleep?
-
Not Synced
Yes
-
Not Synced
Queen Mary went to sleep this early?
-
Not Synced
Mary!
-
Not Synced
Queen Mary!
-
Not Synced
Shush! You won't even let the neighbors sleep!
-
Not Synced
Ohh
-
Not Synced
So the two of you are in this together.
-
Not Synced
Hi Mary!
-
Not Synced
Was there any reason to wake her up this early in the morning?
-
Not Synced
How are you Mary?
-
Not Synced
Fine.
-
Not Synced
I heard all the ruckus.
-
Not Synced
Then why on earth were you still sleeping?
-
Not Synced
You have to wake up and come greet
-
Not Synced
this VIP guest that comes ever so often!
-
Not Synced
That's why I'm here!
-
Not Synced
Rita Aunty, please move over, I can do that.
-
Not Synced
No. No! Mom will make all that. I want to only eat food made by her hands!
-
Not Synced
Or else I'll leave just like I came!
-
Not Synced
See! See! He trying to prevent me from sleeping.
-
Not Synced
Now you know it's not because he needs the food.
-
Not Synced
He won't come but once a year to eat Mom's homemade cooking
-
Not Synced
but is then adamant about eating food made by Mom's hands!
-
Not Synced
Isn't that how it should be when I'm here?
-
Not Synced
That's one of the reasons why I come here!
-
Not Synced
So who is this one for?
-
Not Synced
For me. The next one is for Antony, and the
-
Not Synced
after is for me, then for Antony, then for me, and again and again,
-
Not Synced
and by the time both of our stomachs are full
-
Not Synced
it will be morning!
-
Not Synced
After coming to Mysore, have you learned to speak the
-
Not Synced
language here? This "gulu gulu" sounding language?
-
Not Synced
It's alright. It's now fine.
-
Not Synced
At first it was very difficult.
-
Not Synced
So it's been 2 months since you've come here right?
-
Not Synced
Yes almost.
-
Not Synced
This is the first I've been inside here.
-
Not Synced
It's only opened when I come.
-
Not Synced
The key is with me.
-
Not Synced
It's full of dust!
-
Not Synced
So did you leave Bangalore and head straight for here?
-
Not Synced
Yes.
-
Not Synced
Really? In one stretch?
-
Not Synced
Of course. Now on the way I did stop and eat 10 dosas.
-
Not Synced
Really, and all this was after that?
-
Not Synced
Oh yeah, just for fun. To make mom happy. That's all.
-
Not Synced
For her happiness?
-
Not Synced
If I had told her that I ate some food from the streets,
-
Not Synced
she would have thrown a hissy fit!
-
Not Synced
And she wouldn't have let me sleep!
-
Not Synced
Rita Aunty is always sad.
-
Not Synced
About you Solomon.
-
Not Synced
Hmmm?
-
Not Synced
You leave her here alone and go off, and she's always
-
Not Synced
sad about that.
-
Not Synced
But I'm not going off somewhere. I'm happily working and
-
Not Synced
living there.
-
Not Synced
Oh! What kind of job is it?
-
Not Synced
You could be living here and going
-
Not Synced
there once or twice a month to supervise.
-
Not Synced
that's what Rita Aunty is says.
-
Not Synced
Isn't that what your father used to do?
-
Not Synced
So she's told you everything!
-
Not Synced
Kid, it doesn't work that way.
-
Not Synced
I've planted grapes on 56 acres right now. Do you know?
-
Not Synced
56 acres of vineyards. In addition to that there's also peppers, mulberries, passion and such.
-
Not Synced
If there's not someone to watch it thoroughly,
-
Not Synced
then there's no reason.
-
Not Synced
If that's the case, it's better not to farm!
-
Not Synced
My Dad's time was a whole different era.
-
Not Synced
Today the workers have changed.
-
Not Synced
Even if it's not as big as in Kerala,
-
Not Synced
there are still unions, and the wage boards are strong.
-
Not Synced
Then ask mom, if the vineyards look like the way
-
Not Synced
it looked when Dad was taking care of it.
-
Not Synced
Is it better now?
-
Not Synced
Of course! You need to come and see!
-
Not Synced
I have never seen vineyards before.
-
Not Synced
It's a very romantic concept.
-
Not Synced
But to cultivate -- it would be
-
Not Synced
easier to raise children!
-
Not Synced
What is it?
-
Not Synced
Are you going to stay up?
-
Not Synced
Are you not sleeping?
-
Not Synced
No.
-
Not Synced
Antony must be sleepy.
-
Not Synced
Oh no, he's not. Are you sleepy Mom?
-
Not Synced
If not, you should come and sit here
-
Not Synced
and join us.
-
Not Synced
Let's all not sleep tonight!
