DEV (romantic, dramatic)
Ira... yeh umbrella tumhare liye.
RAHUL
Turant de de. Hero banne ka mood hai uska.
IRA
Tum log hamesha itna loud pyar karte ho kya?
DEV
No, I mean... true love mein selflessness hoti hai.
RAHUL
Haan. Aur true love mein shirt bhi dry hoti hai.
IRA
Dev, sach batao. Tumne umbrella mujhe isliye diya kyunki tum caring ho?
DEV
Obviously.
IRA
Okay. Court shuru.
IRA
Dev. Last month tumne bola tha late isliye hue kyunki office mein meeting thi.
RAHUL
Bro, tu “on my way” bolke abhi tak flyover ke neeche hi hai.
IRA
Umbrella test ka point umbrella nahi tha.
IRA
Dekhna tha ki tum dono mein se kaun pehle sach bolega.
IRA
Truth is... tum dono jhooth bolte ho.
IRA
Tum dono at least itne predictable ho ki rakhne layak ho.
IRA
Main drive karungi.
IRA
Haan. Tum dono chup raho.
