(Manik and Cabir reach the open area where there are fewer people and sit on a bench to talk.)

Cabir- Hum yahan kyu aaye hain Bhai? Function andar hone wala hai.

[Cabir- Why have we come here, bro? The function is going to take place inside.]

Manik- Tujh se baat karni thi isiliye tujhe yahan laya hoon Cabir.

[Manik- I wanted to speak to you. That's why I have brought you here, Cabir.]

Cabir- Kis baare mein baat karni hai Bhai? Koyi problem hai?

[Cabir- What do you need to talk about, bro? Is there some problem?]

Manik- Koyi problem nahi hai Cabir. Bas humari family ke baare mein baat karni hai.

[Manik- There's no problem, Cabir. I just wanted to talk about our family.]

(Cabir gets silent on this point, and Manik looks on.)

Manik- I know you are hurt, Cabir. Because of whatever happened and also about the people who did it.

Cabir- You are just overthinking about it, bro. I am fine.

Manik- You knew everything, Cabir. You knew how much I loved painting.

Cabir- Mera reaction kabhi iss baat ke liye acha nahi hoga Bhai. Aur mujhe ye nahi pata tha ki Dad ne kisi ladki ko paise diye the to defame you. Agar ye bhi pata hota naa ek second ke liye bhi unki shakal nahi dekhta main.

[Cabir- My reaction will never be good for this, bro. And I didn't know that dad had paid that girl. If I had known this, I wouldn't have even looked at his face for a second.]

(Manik takes a sigh and covers his face with his hands.)

Manik- Aur isiliye tujhe nahi bataya tha maine ye sab. Agar tujhe sab pata chalta to tu gussa karta. Jaise ab kar raha hai. Aur vo gussa jaake un logon pe nikaalta. Aur main nahi chahta tha ki vo tujhe bhi hurt kare. Yaa Mukti ko hurt kare.

[Manik- And that's why I didn't tell you all this. If you had known everything, you would have been angry. Just like you are right now. And then you would have taken out that anger on them. And I didn't want them to hurt you in any way. Or even hurt Mukti too.]

Cabir- Mujhe koyi farak nahi padta Bhai. Par sharam aa rahi hai mujhe unhe Mom Dad kehne mein. Unn ki presence bardaasht nahi ho rahi hai mujh se ab.

[Cabir- I don't care about all this, Bro. But I feel ashamed to call them my parents now. I cannot tolerate their presence now.]
