***Lag Gayi*** (Hindi: लग गई, *Lag Gayī*[?]; English: Fucked Over) is the first episode of *Dhindhora*.

## Summary

Babloo and his family lead an ordinary life, one day by a stroke of luck, he wins a lottery.

## Plot

Bhuvan and his family lives in the suburbs of Delhi. On a fine day, both Bhuvan and Babloo are running late for their college and offices respectively. Annoyed by the fact that Janaki always cooks the "emergency *poha*" as breakfast, Bhuvan leaves. Babloo follows soon after. Both of them spot the same rickshaw, and agree to share the fare in exchange for each going their own destination. The auto-rickshaw driver, an aspiring rapper, sings an extremely profane rap to them, and he is asked to stop.

When their routes separate, Bhuvan and Babloo throw the driver down to a dilemma, and the driver hires a different auto midway, and leaves them both alone. Bhuvan is late to his college, and rushes to a band audition. He is informed that the audition has ended, but he is given a chance by the members. When Bhuvan tries to play, he realises that his guitar lacks a battery, which is used up by Babloo on his office clock. The peon informs him that their boss is promoting the employees.

Bhuvan goes back to his class where Babli Sir ridicules him for being late, and upon receiving a call from Sameer and Bancho, it is revealed that Sameer's grandmother has supposedly passed away, so Babli dismisses Bhuvan. Bhuvan, Sameer and Bancho agree to meet at a *gol-gappa* stall. Meanwhile, Babloo is called to the manager's office, and is offered a promotion. However, Babloo reads a sarcastic letter handed to him by Sameer for the day he is promoted, to the Boss. Babloo cannot understand English so he happily reads the letter, and thus unimpressed by the degradation towards him, the Boss reduces his salary. Hola is seen standing beside the door of the manager's office.

Upset, Babloo reaches a bus stop, and is bothered by a lottery ticket-seller to buy a ticket. Babloo buys one, and apparently wins it. Janaki at home, is shown an advertisement for a magical ring which can supposedly cure every kind of disease and attracts wealth. Janaki calls the show host home, and is soon informed by Babloo that they have won a lottery. Janaki gives off ₹1500 to the Baba and sends him out as she dreams of all the things she can do with the lottery money.

### Hindi

रात गई तो बात नई

शुरू कहाँ से हम करे?

धूप में भी छाँव लगे

भीड़ में भी तू ही दिखे

ये अनकही-सी दोस्ती

दिल की डोर से सिल रही

मुस्कुराए तू वहाँ

हँसी मेरे चेहरे पे खिल रही

रफ़्ता रफ़्ता मैं तेरी ओर यूँ चलूँ

रफ़्ता रफ़्ता मैं एक कदम यूँ रखूँ

तेरी ओर

इन आँखों में है ख़्वाब तेरा

और दिल में है सुकूँ नया

ज़ुबाँ पे है नाम तेरा

जो मन में है तूने कहा

रफ़्ता रफ़्ता मैं तेरी ओर यूँ चलूँ

रफ़्ता रफ़्ता मैं एक कदम यूँ रखूँ

तेरी ओर

As the night passes

Where even do we start a new conversation?

I feel sheltered even under sunshine

I spot only you amongst a crowd

This undiscovered friendship

Is tied together by the strings of heart

Where when you smile

My face also blooms a smile

Slowly, I walk towards

Slowly, I take another step

Towards you

These eyes carry your dreams

The heart is in fresh peace

My lips carry your name

My mind is full of what you've said

Slowly, I walk towards

Slowly, I take another step

Towards you

Papa Maakichu (Dhindora)

*For character in* Vines*, see Papa Maakichu.*

## Papa Maakichu

**Lakhan Chhatriwala** (Hindi: लखन छत्रीवाला, *Lakhan Chatrīvālā*[?]), better known as **Papa Maakichu** (Hindi: पापा माँकीचू, *Pāpā Mā̃kīcū*[?]), is a character who appeared as a crime organiser and loan shark in *Dhindora*.

## Description

Lakhan is a gangster, and runs his criminal organisation from a tin-shed building. He has long beard and a purple sunglass covering his entire face, as well as a cowboy hat. He wields either a shotgun or the Latika. He acts as a loan shark for Titu, offering him money and torturing him for not paying the debt back.

His sentences are followed by the Hindi profanity "माँ की चू" ("Your mom's pussy"), which is where he gets half his name from.

## Background

Lakhan and Titu grew up together, presumably as friends, as Janaki mentions they are "not siblings." They used to borrow money from Janaki to buy toys like the spinning top.

In *Dhindora*, Lakhan captures Titu for trying to escape him, and lends him some money on remembering their childhood relation, to help pay Babloo's hospital bills. Later, he captures Titu again for failing to pay the debt in *Toota Ek Taara*. In *Samay Ka Pahiya*, him and his gang celebrate on Titu returning the money.

## Gallery

## Trivia

* The wall of the tin-shed building has a graffiti that says "Keep calm and Wallah Habibi," implying he has connection to racketeering operations in the Middle East. Though, he has mentioned a villa located in Kuwait.
	+ This is also characterised by the middle-eastern base of his theme song, *Papa MKC Theme (Dhindora Bonus Audio)*.
	+ The operations also presumably run in UAE as mentioned in the *Vines* episode *Baap ho toh aisa*. Though, the two episodes are set in separate universes.
* Papa Maakichu knows both Titu and Janaki from childhood, unlike in the Vines universe where neither Titu nor Janaki have interacted with him or acknowledged him.
* Unlike Vines, This version of Papa Maakichu has not interacted with his son Bancho on-screen.
Baadal

**Baadal** (Hindi: बादल; *Bādal*[?], lit. *cloud*), is a minor character who appears in *Vines*. He is a salesman who occasionally stops by Bhuvan's house to sell his products.

## Description

He is depicted as a door-to-door salesman, who sells whatever products he has in stock. He has very poor skills in English, as he was not able to go to an English school due to his family being poor. As such, whenever he talks he always states the subject of the sentence and then translates it, connecting with the word "the" (For example, he introduces himself as "Baadal the sky"). Because of this, Bhuvan refers to him as "subtitles" as he is always subtitling his words.

## Appearances

* *The Salesman*
* *The Salesman- Part 2*
Janaki

*For the character in Dhindora, see Janaki (Dhindora).*

**Janaki** (Hindi: जानकी, *Jānakī*[?]; alternatively spelled **Jaanki**) is a character who appears in Vines and is Bhuvan's mother, Babloo's wife and Titu's sister.

## Description

Janaki is an outgoing and humble person, and does not shy away from sharing familial matters with everyone. She watches crime shows and telemarketing while doing housework.

Her face is covered with a scarf to make up for the fact that she is portrayed by Bhuvan. She wails in her signature style in a monotonous sound. When presented with money, it is realised that she has no control over her spending.

## Trivia

* According to Bhuvan Bam, Janaki is the hardest character to play due to her voice pitch being significantly higher than Bhuvan's natural voice, straining his throat whenever he is portraying her. Thus, he films all scenes featuring Janaki at the very end.
* Janaki's hands are not visible (as Bhuvan uses one hand to hold the camera and the other to cover the face), hence the exaggerated head movements.
English ka keeda

***English ka keeda*** (Hindi: इंग्लिश का कीड़ा, *Iṅgliś kā kīṛā*[?]; English: The English Bug) is the 21st episode of the *Vines* series. It features Babloo, Janaki and Bhuvan.

## Plot

Bhuvan is home from outside, and his father instructs him in basic English that it is now mandatory to speak English inside the house from now on. Bhuvan accepts and says "Yeah, I don't mind either" which is not recognised as English by Babloo, and he gives the instructions again, leading Bhuvan to resort to basic English to communicate with his parents. His mother can only say the word 'okay'.

Babloo picks up a call from Mrs. Verma and speaks to her in English, and mentions the word 'pussy' instead of 'cat' as a reference to the episode *Such a Pussy*, and his misleading use of English leads to Mrs. Verma hanging up the phone. Bhuvan asks what is for dinner, and Babloo, unable to name the vegetables, tells Bhuvan it is a surprise and sends him off. Babloo then calls Mr. Verma in Hindi to ask what a bottle gourd (कद्दू) is called in English.
BB Ki Vines

**BB Ki Vines** is the YouTube channel created by Bhuvan Bam where a majority of Bam's content is uploaded, including the *Vines*, and the *Dhindora* series. Standing at over 2.6 crore subscribers as of 2023, it is the tenth most subscribed individual YouTube channel in India.

## Etymology

The term "BB Ki Vines" translates to "BB's Vines" in English where "BB" is an abbreviation from **B**huvan **B**am and "Vines" refers to the discontinued American short-video hosting site Vine.

## Content

The channel remains as Bhuvan's main content hub after shifting to YouTube from Facebook. It hosts more than 180 videos as of September 2023. It is managed by his production house, which has its own channel located at BB Ki Vines Productions where official announcement videos are uploaded. However, despite the term "Vines" in the name, Bam never actually uploaded any of his videos on Vine, instead choosing the name simply because of its popularity during the time of the channel's inception.

***Vardaan*** (Hindi: वरदान, *Vardān*[?]; English: Blessing) is the second episode of *Taaza Khabar*.

## Summary

Only Vasya's friend Peter believes in him, and they set out to exploit his newfound power and try to sell a vintage vase. Will their first mission make them the kings of the city?

## Plot

A short recollection of Vasya and Madhu's first encounter is shown, where the fall in love with each other. Next, at the hospital full of wounded people from the collapse of the Sodawala bridge, Vasant warns the doctor of a power outage later that day, but the doctor ignores him. At the Shazia Restaurant & Bakery, Vasant and Madhu meet, and Vasant tells Madhu about the blessing he had received. Madhu does not believe him, and passes it off as an effect of him being drunk or high.

After a news flash he receives of Shetty defecting political parties, the news realises, and Vasant is shocked again. At night, he meets Peter and tells him about the blessing, and Peter believes him. In a news flash, they receive the news that at the Royal Antiques, a vase contains hidden gold and that the buyer bought it for ₹50,000 and sold it for ₹9,00,000. They plan to buy the vase, and the next day, Vasant asks Mehboob for the money but Mehboob refuses. Peter later arrives with ₹50,000, informing Vasant that he lied to Mehboob about the death of his father.

At the Goyal Antiques (Vasant had misread it as "Royal" due to his cracked phone screen), they ask for the vase, but the price turns out to be ₹2,00,000. While returning it, Peter drops the vase causing it to break, and the two have to flee the scene. A white tourist finds the vase and buys the damaged item for ₹50,000, presumably later selling it after finding embedded gold. In an alley in another news flash, Manish Bhosle, a local businessman and Madhu's friend, is said to have won ₹1 crore at the *1 Crore Jeeto* (*Win 1 Crore*) quiz show.

Vasant asks Madhu for Manish's phone number, and on calling that number, Manish's wife picks up. Vasant offers the answer to the next question in exchange for ₹30 lakh. Bhosle's wife hands Manish a paper with the letter 'T' signalling the next answer. Bhosle is presented with the question of the capital of Kiribati. However, there are two options with T: Tarawa and Tebua. Shazia exclaims that Tebua is the correct answer, and Vasant and Peter are left in suspense.

**Kersi Billimoria** (Hindi: कर्सी बिलिमोड़िया, *Karsī Bilimoṛiyā*[?]) is a character who appeared as a wealthy retiree and Alpana's household employer in *Taaza Khabar*.

## Description

Billimoria is a short and chubby man who wears a neck brace. He is bald and has some hair around his scalp.

He is very fond of his deceased wife, and is furious at anyone who disrespects her. He is also very arrogant and decisive, and does not hold any value of what others say.

## Background

Kersi and Kaneez lived in Mumbai as a married couple, and it is not known where he used to work. They hired Alpana Gawde as their household assistant. After Kaneez's passing, he renamed his bungalow in Mumbai after her late wife, and decided to have it turn into a dog shelter after his passing. He adopted/bought a German Shepherd dog and named it Kaneez as well.

He is later seen at Shazia Restaurant & Bakery buying bread, and pays less for the bread because he supposedly found stale bread the last time he bought.

In *Kismat*, Vasant tries to buy Billimoria's bungalow, but Billimoria throws them out reiterating that he wants his bungalow be turned into a dog shelter after his death. However, Kaneez is soon lost in the Khar area, and Vasant finds it, only to demand the bungalow in exchange for Kaneez. Billimoria reluctantly agrees, and is given Vasant's Mercedes Benz S-class for free. Billimoria finds the trunk of the car full of cash, and stares at the Vasant in disbelief.

## Trivia

सो मत, सो मत, जाग ज़रा

हो रहा है सवेरा

सो मत, सो मत, जाग ज़रा

मुर्गे ने मारी बाँग तो

किस्मत कटली इन हाथों के

पल आधे आग़ोश में

क्यूँ ख़ुद को ही ख़ुद रोके?

Get up तू हो जा

हसल तू कर

आलस पे मिट्टी पा

सो मत, सो मत, जाग ज़रा

हो रहा है सवेरा

चिल्लड़ में ना जी ज़िन्दगी कटेगी रो-रोके

चख ले थोड़ा घी कि कभी-कभी खाए ना धोखे

चिल्लड़ में ना जी ज़िन्दगी कटेगी रो-रोके

चख ले थोड़ा घी कि कभी-कभी खाए ना धोखे

सो मत, सो मत, जाग ज़रा

हो रहा है सवेरा

सो मत, सो मत, जाग ज़रा

Get up तू हो जा

**Mangloo** (Hindi: मंगलू, *Maṅglū*[?]), better known as **Detective Mangloo** (Hindi: जासूस मंगलू, *Jāsūs Maṅglū*[?]), is a character who appears in *Vines*. He is a detective and has so far made only two appearances.

## Description

Mangloo has dense black beard and curly hair, and wears black oval-lensspectacles. He offers random, often useless and obvious, pieces of information for ₹20 each, along with the line "₹20 दोगे तो एक राज़ की बात बताऊँगा।" ("₹20 dogey toh ek raaz ki baat bataaunga"/"Give me ₹20 and I'll let you in on a secret.")

His informative dialogues may also be followed by the line "किसी ने सुना तो नहीं?" ("Kisi ne suna toh nahi?"/"Hope nobody heard what I said.") He is known to make indirect hints towards clues.

## Cases

### Bancho's girlfriend

Bancho hired Mangloo to keep an eye on his new girlfriend. Bhuvan dislikes Mangloo due to him winding and passing simple facts as "secrets" and charging ₹20 to reveal it.

Mangloo provided second-to-second updates of Bancho's girlfriend who is at a party with her friends. After cutting the cake, she got into an auto with her friend Mayank, and as they reached her house, they were about to kiss. Mangloo said that his informant was the auto-driver. The subject, who he revealed to be "Sunaina," then allegedly rejected, and said that she was in a relationship with "Chetan."

Bancho revealed that the name of his girlfriend was Anamika, not Sunaina, and when showed a photo of the subject, confirmed his words. Mangloo panicked and asked his men to not shoot the subject, implying that Mangloo had planned to assassinate Bancho's girlfriend. Unfortunately, it was already too late and the receiver had hung up.

Vasant Gawde

**Vasant "Vasya" Gawde** (Hindi: वसंत गावड़े, *Vasant Gāvṛe* / वस्य, *Vasya*[?]) is a sanitation worker at a public toilet in Mumbai and the protagonist in *Taaza Khabar*.

## Description

He is a tall, skinny man with a scar on his left cheek. He is often dressed in street clothes during the early episodes of *Taaza Khabar* but starts wearing expensive clothes in later episodes after he gains a lot of wealth using his *vardān*.

## Story

Vasant Gawde lives with his family in the Byculla slums of Mumbai, Maharashtra, and is a sanitation worker at a public toilet. He is also in love with a prostitute named Madhubala, who is also loved by a corrupt minister named Arun Shetty. One night, he encounters an old woman who had fallen unconscious in her stall. He cleans her up and leads her out, leading to the old woman blessing her with the ability to read news from the future. Vasant uses his ability to inform a *1 Crore Jeeto* participant of the next correct answer for ₹1 crore, in exchange for ₹30 lakh.

However, the clue is of no use when two similar answers are shown as options. Due to this, Vasant does not earn any amount of money. Later, he along with a restaurant owner named Mehboob Sayyid, his daughter Shazia Sayyid, Vasant's friend Peter, and Madhu, start betting on cricket matches with the help of an agent in contact with Mehboob and Shazia, and win it big when they win the bet with Vasant's ability. Vasant pays back his debt to Shetty, and frees Madhu from the brothel.

With the acquired money, Vasant continues betting, eventually coming under the sight of Shetty, who believes that he is a match-fixer. Vasant brings out his mother from the chawl to the luxurious hotel the group is staying in, but his father stays back. Madhu turns her side-business of stitching *sarees* into a full-time occupation, and employs other prostitutes from her former workplace. Vasant soon buys Bilimoria, a rich retiree's house. Gradually with the influx of money, power and recognition, Vasant turns ignorant and becomes a megalomaniac. He falls in love with another rich businesswoman named Suhani.

On new year's eve, Vasant has a party at his newly-acquired residence with all his business associates and close contacts. At the party, Shetty arrives with Vasant's father Ashok as his footman. Enraged, at the count of zero on 1 January of the new year, Vasant kisses Suhani, leading to Madhu being devastated and returning to her brothel, followed by Shetty. Vasant later returns to his chawl home and sees his father sleeping in his room, and on his phone receives the news from future, of him being killed due to untold circumstances.

## Trivia

* While preparing for the role, Bhuvan Bam's goal was to make sure as much as possible that Vasant does not remind the viewers of any of his previous characters from BB Ki Vines.
* Bhuvan also considers Vasant to be his 22nd character in his roster.

## Lyrics

### Hindi

(बुरा है ज़माना, बुरा है ज़माना)

(बुरा है ज़माना, बुरा है ज़माना)

सफ़र, कैसा है ये सफ़र

मंज़िलों की ना है कोई ख़बर

सफ़र, कैसा है ये सफ़र

मंज़िलों की ना है कोई ख़बर

रास्तों से मेरी गहरी यारी हो गई

जो फ़र्ज़ से भरा था बस्ता वो भी ख़ाली हो गया

बुरा है ज़माना, तू चल डगर, ना कर अगर-मगर

कैसा है ये सफ़र

मंज़िलों की ना है कोई ख़बर

सफ़र, कैसा है ये सफ़र

मंज़िलों की ना है कोई ख़बर

सफ़र

पैरों को बाँधे बेड़ियाँ

बताए सौ कहानियाँ

तू रोशनी, तू रंग है

तू उड़ रही पतंग है

बना है तू, ढा दे गज़ब

आज़माना है अब इस ज़माने का हर पैंतरा

गुज़र, ऐसी राह से गुज़र

जी उठे हर घड़ी हर पहर

सफ़र, कैसा है ये सफ़र

मंज़िलों की ना है कोई ख़बर

## Summary

The couple called for a movie night. Lingering between genres and end up watching a horror movie. Things take a spooky turn when just like the movie, their life becomes frightful too. They witness an eerie presence at home, having only 7 minutes until they face their fear. Ultimately, we reach a humorous end when the couple realises that this ghost is someone they were already expecting.

## Plot

Karan and Nithya sit down on their bed for a movie night. Nithya wants to watch a romance-comedy, but Karan wants to watch action. Eventually, they settle on horror. When Nithya objects, Karan taunts her by calling her a coward. He turns on the movie *Rakshas Ki Hawas*, and plays a light prank on Nithya by shining a torch up his face. Nithya goes to the bathroom, and when she does not return after some time, Karan goes to check and finds an empty bathroom, only to be jumpscared by Nithya shining a torch up her face as well.

When they return, the power goes out, and Karan assumes to be another prank by Nithya, to which Nithya refuses. A storm also rolls in. Karan receives a call where the person on the other end says the he "will be there in 7 minutes," which was the exact quote the killer in the film had said to the victim before arriving to kill her. Both Karan and Nithya are visibly scared. Nithya then says she has to use the bathroom, and as Karan stands outside the door, he hears someone calling his name.

Nithya comes out of the bathroom to spot someone spying on them from outside their balcony, but as soon as Karan turns towards the balcony, the figure disappears. Karan forms a circle using *diyas* to keep away ghosts. The doorbell rings, and a man wearing a mask with a skull jaw design on it. They open the door expecting a murderer, but it turns out to be the delivery boy who has come to deliver the food that Karan had ordered. He reveals that he was the one who called Karan, yelled his name from below, and tried to find his apartment by looking balcony, and slipped when Karan looked back.

Karan and Nithya later watch a romance comedy while having their dinner.

Kristality arts

## Sumario

Kristality Arts são o termo usado para a capacidade de usar o Kristality para a alterar a matéria ou a consciência utilizando a energia presente no Kristality para manifestar seus efeitos anomalos.

As Arts podem se manifestar de diversas formas, principalmente, mas não se limitando, a projéteis destrutivos de alta potencia, controle de substâncias ou até cicatrização acelerada de feridas, depende muito da fisiologia, genética e do treinamento, podendo adquirir diversos tipos de Arts dependendo dos fatores citados anteriormente. Um exemplo, Draconimes e outros Dragões possuem uma afinidade maior com Arts focadas em controlar chamas ou causar efeitos destrutivos poderosos.

Como os Kristality são a base para se utilizar as Arts, alguns preferem optar por utilizar armas com Kristality infundido, fazendo com que os usuários possam usar as Arts mesmo que não sejam tão proficientes, as armas podem variar enormemente em forma e tamanho e particularmente em função: Alguns podem servir para amplificar as Arts do usuário, redirecionar, estabilizar ou aumentar as Arts inatas do usuário, outras só permitem que o usuário consiga usar um tipo espécifico de Arts (por exemplo, armas de fogo e arcos).

Os infectados com a Kristopatia são capazes de utilizar o Kristality em seus corpos para usar ou amplificar o poder de suas Arts, mesmo que isso aumente significantemente o progresso da Kristopatia, sendo quase uma benção e uma maldição ao mesmo tempo.

Anjos da Morte

## Sumário

Os anjos da morte são os ajudantes do Deus da morte Mors, sendo responsáveis por levar a alma dos mortos para o Juiz do Fim quando seu criador não faz essa tarefa. Tendo uma ligação primordial com a morte e sendo representações menores da morte, os anjos da morte são seres extremamente poderosos e provavelmente são os uma das raças angelicais mais poderosas.

## Poderes/Habilidades

* *Fisiologia mortifera:* Os anjos da morte são representações menores da própria morte, sendo assim, são imunes aos efeitos de morte convencional, não podendo morrer de causas naturais, porem, uma das coisas que mais afeta os anjos da morte são poderes infernais, pois são poderes derivados da região mais mortífera que existe, tão mortífera que uma mera representação da morte menor jamais aguentaria.

* *Asas negras:* Os anjos da morte possuem asas negras que os possibilitam voar em uma velocidade tão alta alta que são capazes de viajar por dimensões.

* *Umbracinese:* Os anjos da morte são capazes de controlar a escuridão de forma excepcional, podendo criar armas feitas de pura escuridão e podendo se mover pelas sombras a vontade.

* *Proficiência Mortífera:* Já é de se esperar que os anjos da morte tenham uma ligação com os rituais de elemento morte, sendo assim, os anjos da morte possuem naturalmente, conhecimento sobre todos os rituais de elemento Morte, tanto aqueles que já são conhecidos como aqueles que se perderam com o tempo.

***Elon Mouse*** is the third episode of *Rafta Rafta*.

## Summary

Nithya is mad at Karan over a sandwich and get into a fight, but the couple realise they have another unexpected guest- a mouse. They try every trick to remove the mouse but fail to do so. They accept their defeat only to realise that they cannot hear a mouse any more. Suddenly, Mr Sharma comes asking for mouse trap as the rodent is creating havoc at home. Karan and Nithya laugh their lungs out.

## Plot

Karan is asleep on the couch, so Nithya opens the door leaving her sub sandwich ready, when the security guard asks them to enter their details on a form. She returns to find her sub untidily half-eaten, and initially blames it on Karan, but soon realises that there is a mouse in their apartment. Karan climbs up their couch while Nithya climbs up the bed in their bedroom. After much hesitation, Karan goes out to bring some mousetraps and glue pads.

They rig the traps with Gouda cheese which Nithya's friend had brought from Amsterdam, but the mouse escapes every single trap, successfully escaping with the cheese. Nithya initially refuses to use the glue pads because of the inhumane way mice die from glue pads, but when she finds her favourite scarf gnawed, she asks Karan to use them. They spot the mouse but it corners them into their bedroom.

Nithya has an idea, to use their Amazon Echo Dot speaker to play mouse mating sounds to attract the mouse, while Karan holds a serving lid on a fishing rod above the speaker. The mouse arrives and starts mating with the speaker, and Karan drops the lid and drags it outside, only to realise that the mouse has escaped. Defeated, both of them come back inside, when Mr. Sharma comes in with his underwear gnawed away by the mouse which has now entered their apartment. After he leaves, Karan and Nithya laugh out loud.
