3Idiots - 2 Flashcards
add
Time up.
add
Time up, sir.
add
No one got the answer?
add
Now rewind your life by a minute.
add
When I asked this question, were you excited? Curious?
add
Thrilled that you’d learn something new?
add
Anyone? … Sir?
add
No. You all got into a frantic race.
add
What’s the use of such methods, even if you come first
add
Will your knowledge increase? No, just the pressure.
add
This is a college, not a pressure cooker.
add
Even a circus lion learns to sit on a chair in fear of the whip.
add
But you call such a lion ‘well trained’, not ‘well educated’
add
Hello!
add
This is not a philosophy class. Just explain those two words
add
Sir, these words don’t exist.
add
These are my friends’ names. Farhan and Raju
add
Quiet!
add
Nonsense! Is this how you’ll teach Engineering?
add
Sir, I wasn’t teaching you Engineering.
add
You’re an expert at that.
add
I was teaching you… how to teach.
add
And I’m sure one day you’ll learn.
add
because unlike you, I never abandon my weak students.
add
Bye, sir.
add
Quiet!
add
Quiet, I said.
add
I regret to inform you that your son…
add
Farhan… Raju…
add
has fallen into bad company.
add
Without urgent corrective steps, his future will be ruined.
add
Virus’s letters dropped on our homes like atom bombs.
add
Hiroshima and Nagasaki plunged into gloom.
add
Our parents invited us - for a dressing down.
add
Come in.
add
See that?
add
We could afford just one air-conditioner.
add
We put it in Farhan’s room, so he could study in comfort.
add
I didn’t buy a car. I manage with a scooter.
add
We put all our money into Farhan’s education.
add
We sacrificed our comforts for Farhan’s future. Understand?
add
You took these pictures, Farhan?
add
He had that useless obsession for a while.
add
Went around taking pictures of animals.
add
Wanted to be a wildlife photographer.
add
Son, what was your score that year?
add
91%
add
Hear that? Straight drop from 94% to 91%.
add
You find it funny?
add
No sir, sorry. I’m just amazed at the photos
add
Why make him an engineer… Why not a wildlife photographer?
add
Enough!
add
I humbly request you - Don’t ruin my son’s future.
add
Food’s on the table, boys. C’mon.
add
If you ever visit again, do eat with us.
add
Dad denied us a meal…
add
So, to fill our bellies with food…
add
and ears with more reprimands, we reached Raju’s house.
add
Raju’s house was straight out of a 50’s black and white film.
add
A small, dingy room…
add
a paralyzed father…
add
a coughing mother…
add
and an unwed sister
add
A sofa sprouting springs…
add
a 24 hour water supply - from the leaking roof.
add
Mother was a retired school teacher and a tireless complainer.
add
Father was once a postmaster.
add
Paralysis shut down his body partly…
add
his salary completely. And the sister…
add
Kammo’s turned 28. They demand a car in dowry.
add
If you don’t study and earn, how will she marry?
add
Some okra?
add
Okra is now 12/- per kilo, cauliflower is 10/-
add
It’s daylight robbery!
add
What will we eat if we get warnings from your college?
add
Mom!
add
Cottage cheese?
add
Cottage cheese should be sold at the jewelers, in velvet pouches
add
- Cottage cheese? - No, no, it’s ok.
add
Mom, please.
add
Alright, I’ll shut up
add
Earn for the family, slave like a maid.
add
and then take the vow of silence.
add
If not with my son, with whom do I share my woes - his friends?
add
Hey Raju.
add
We were in a huge dilemma.
add
Do we comfort our friend or console his mom?
add
Screw it, we thought, let’s focus on the cottage cheese.
add
Even his eczema cream costs 55/- now
add
Another roti?
add
No, thank you. We’re through.
add
Okra for 12/- - Cauliflower for 10/-
add
At least you were offered a meal
add
Unlike your sadistic dad… ‘Hitler’ Qureshi!
add
And your mom is Mother Teresa… Feeding us ‘eczema roti’!
add
- Don’t poke fun at my mom! - Enough, you guys.
add
I’m famished. Let’s eat out.
add
It’s month end. Who’ll pay? His Mother Teresa?
add
To eat out, you don’t need money. Just a uniform. Look…
add
- C’mon. - Come.
add
Good evening, good evening.
add
Oh, Uncle.
add
NAME?
add
If we’re caught, we’re dead.
add
- What’s for starters? - Get double portions.
add
Leave this here and start some peppy music.
add
Pia, what the hell?
add
Why’re you wearing this ancient piece of junk?
add
What’ll people say - My fiancee…
add
a doctor in the making, wearing a cheap, 200/- watch!
add
Please take it off. Thank you.
add
Hi handsome.
add
Hey Aunty. You’re looking good.
add
- Don’t miss my set, darling. - Rubies?
add
- From Mandalay - Mandalay… Wow!
add
- Hey, let’s go meet David. - Of course.
add
Excuse me.
add
Yes?
add
Flowers.
add
NAME?
add
So you don’t break it on my head
add
Why would I do that?
add
For the free advice I’ll now impart
add
What?
add
Don’t marry that ass
add
Excuse me?
add
He’s not a human, he’s a price tag.
add
He’ll turn your life into a nightmare of brands and prices.
add
He’ll ruin your life. Your future will be finished.
add
Want a demonstration?
add
Shall I find out the price of his shoes?
add
I won’t ask. He’ll announce it himself.
add
What the hell… Mint sauce on my $300 shoes!
add
Run for your life! It’s free advice. Take it or leave it.
add
Genuine Italian leather - hand-stitched!
add
Dad, are they your guests?
add
My students. What’re they doing here?
add
Hold on, Dad.
add
These beans smell great.
add
NAME?
add
NAME?
add
That was an eye-opener. Thank you so much.
add
It was my moral responsibility.
add
Can I ask you for little more help?
add
Dad won’t let me break off this engagement.
add
You explain so well. Can you give him a demo too?
add
Certainly. Raju, the mint sauce
add
You’re really sweet
add
NAME?
add
Aal izz well
add
Run for your life! It’s free advice. Take it or leave it
add
What’re you doing here?
add
We’ll hand these gifts to the couple.
add
I’ll do that for you. It’s my sister’s wedding.
add
Sister?
add
Sir, what’s the sum total of your daughters?
add
Empty. No gift cheques.
add
Forgot the cheques, Raju … Farhan?
add
We didn’t invite you, you must be from the groom’s side.
add
No sir, we’re here as the emissaries of science.
add
How? Can you explain?
add
Dad, he explains superbly. I’m sure he’ll give us a demo.
add
Won’t you?
add
Well, Delhi has plenty of power cuts that…
add
disrupt wedding celebrations.
add
So I thought of making an inverter that…
add
draws power from guests’ cars.
add
I see.
add
Wow!
add
So where’s the inverter?
add
Sir, the design is ready.
add
Where’s the design, Farhan?
add
NAME?
add
Raju, design?
add
Never mind the design. I’ll make the inverter and show you.
add
You can only invent stories, not an inverter.
add
I’ll make one, I promise.
add
And I’ll name it after you. After all, it was invented…
add
at your daughter’s wedding. So it’ll be an honor…
add
Farhan, Raju. I’ll see you in my office tomorrow.
add
Sir, what was the cost per plate? We’ll reimburse you…
add
… in installments.
add
- We’ll never crash a wedding again. - Not even my own.
add
In fact, I won’t even marry. Nor will he.
add
Uh… right. No marriage.
add
Your parents shouldn’t have married either.
add
The world would have to feed two less idiots.
add
Sit!
add
Pay attention.
add
This is Ranchoddas’s father’s monthly income.
add
Couple of zeroes less, and it’s still a sizeable income.
add
But erase another zero, and I would worry a little.
add
Isn’t that your fathers income, Farhan?
add
Yes, sir.
add
Now take away another zero…
add
and that’s your family income, Raju Rastogi.
add
Big reason to worry.
add
Take my advice and shift into Chatur Ramalingam’s room.
add
Exams are here. Stay with Rancho and you’re sure to fail.
add
NAME?
