THE FIRST DATE | Short Film | Romance | SIT

Hello? Hi! I think the doorbell isn't working. I've been ringing it for so long. You've reached? Yes. Before time? Five minutes ago. If you say, I'll send you back in five minutes. No, no, just give me like a minute, I'll be there. Okay, okay. Hi, I'm so sorry. Please come in, please come in. Hi, it's okay. Actually, the music was so loud that I couldn't hear the doorbell. It's okay. You look absolutely... I look... Listen, please complete the sentence because I don't know what to anticipate. No, no, I really meant to say that you're really looking fantastic. You're looking really good. Okay, thank you. I was going to compliment you, but I thought if I compliment you on the first date, you might just be judging me. It's okay. I mean, everyone likes to hear compliments. So, thank you. This is for you. Oh, thank you so much. Well, by the way, a chef's taste is very good. So, if he's complimenting you, that means you deserve it. Thank you, but... I can judge you for your taste. What? Sorry, but this cap is a little too much. I'm so sorry. It's okay. Anyways, please make yourself comfortable. Sure, thank you. What are you doing here? You said two minutes, but it's been three minutes. Look, you can't come here. Please. Sorry, I didn't know you were so possessive about your kitchen. Consider this like a backstage area. You're the audience, the chief guest for the night. If the audience sees the backstage area, then the illusion of performance goes away. If you've seen it, then do it. Did you play in college? Yes, a lot. And I was quite good at it. But... You know, this is my calling. This is my passion. This is what I love doing. I used to play too, but I was terrible at it. Listen, if you need any help, please let me know. Yes, actually... Singh has some wine glasses. Please rinse them and bring them. I was just trying to be nice. You really gave me a job. Consider it like an opportunity for you to be nicer. Thanks. Here. Okay, I'll take it. Mehendi... Was it Yushi's wedding? Yes. Mine. Let's go. This is so yum. Are you serious? Did you make all this? I'll finish it all. Yes, please. But remember, the main course and dessert are still left. Don't worry. I'll finish all that too. Then we'll be a perfect couple. I mean, I like cooking. You like eating. Couple and all. Post-date. Aren't you jumping the gun? No, actually... I was just... Trying to be positive. Relax, relax. I was just taking your case. By the way, you've got a beautiful house. Thank you. So, Ms. Megha, the interior designer. Residential or commercial spaces? Mainly residential. That's why I was so impressed with your house. It's nicely done. I have no say in this. It's a rented flat. I came to see the house. I saw the kitchen and I got sold. That's when I bought it on rent. But why rented? It's rented now. I'll buy my own when the time comes. For now, I'm investing to reach that goal. So, what kind of investment do you do? Mutual funds. Mutual funds? You know, everyone says that mutual funds are good, but... I still don't understand what's good for me. I mean, it's too complicated. No, actually, it's not. I do it through ET Money. ET Money... ET Money is an app. All this used to seem complicated to me too. But after using it, it's quite simple. How? This app gives you a report card of every fund. With this report card, you get all the information about that fund. What you need to know is whether that fund is right for you or not. Okay. So, what information does this report card give? Basically, the report card tells you three things. First, how consistently the fund has delivered returns. Second, when the market fell in the past, how well the fund saved investment and minimized loss. And third, ET Money Rank. You know, this ET Money Rank tells you where this fund stands in your category. This is because I did not invest just by looking at the returns. And really, really thank God for that. Smart. So, how long have you been investing in mutual funds? Almost... 5 years. Then you must have made a good portfolio, right? Oh! So, you want to know how financially stable the guy is? Now who's jumping? Listen, it's nothing like that. I was just being curious. It's alright, it's alright. I was just thanking you. Thanks. Main course? So, when are you opening your own restaurant? Very soon. In fact, I'm already looking out for a place. Why don't you design my restaurant? First a date, and now a job. Quite a lucky day for me. Excuse me. Yes, mom. I'll call you back in half an hour. Yeah, yeah, all fine, all fine. Okay, bye. Sorry. It's alright. Mom was worried? Yeah, I mean, she must be wondering what kind of a guy I'm with. And what kind of a guy do you want? Actually, I mean, expectations. First a job, and now this interview. This feels like a job interview. So, what are your expectations from the company? Look, I think the first date should be like a job interview. After this, you get to know if the other person should be there or not. So, we're going to interview each other? How will you know if you don't ask questions? Everything, you know, can't be asked or said. I think some things are to be felt and experienced. But there's no doubt in asking questions. I mean, everything is pretty clear after that. And what if I answer the wrong question? You know, I can lie. I can pretend to be somebody else. You're right. You've become a lot smarter than I thought. See, I didn't tell you that I'm smart, but you still found out. Like, I found out that you listen to the other person and try to understand them. Maybe... I've experienced failed past relationships. I think you've had a lot of experiences. Two. And I told mom about the last one. That I can't do it, you find someone else. Nice. So that if something goes wrong for the third time, you blame mom, right? Exactly. You know, I also told mom. I mean, of course, not to blame. Because if I didn't find anyone till 26th or 27th, she should take the charge. So you didn't find anyone? I did. Compatibility issues. Was it love? I guess so. I hope so. I can smell something burning. Oh, no, no, no. You're getting me all wrong. I'm not the jealous type. I mean, I'm very capacious. No, listen. I can literally smell something burning. Oh, shit! Cake! Cake! Oh, shit! Did you turn it off? This was Nikhil's special cake. I know, it's okay. Actually, I forgot to set the timer. Yeah, but it's okay. No, but this is like the first time this has happened. This has never happened before. But you know, without dessert, the whole meal is incomplete. You know, the meal is complete when there's dessert. Yeah, Nikhil, Nikhil, Nikhil. Relax, relax, relax. Listen, when life burns your cake... You taught me a very important lesson of life today. When life burns your cake, you eat dessert. Well, I'm glad that I added some value to your life. And I'll take your leave now. But... This interview isn't over yet. It's the first round, right? We'll meet again for the second round. So... Next Saturday? Okay. I'll see you. Okay, bye. Thank you. Bye. Yes? Yes. How was your day? Great. Tea? Yeah, if you're making it, why not? Dude, this is way weirder than I thought. Sorry? No, not you. The whole situation. I mean, we met formally once or twice, then we got married. And now, this... I know. Wedding night. I mean, you know... Arranged marriage is okay. But we don't even know each other well. And it... All of this is just weird. I know, I know. There's a process for every relationship. Exactly. But, what if we can go through that process? What do you mean? I mean... I mean, imagine if we hadn't met like this. I mean, if my family hadn't let us meet. And if we had met outside, by chance. And we would have liked each other. What would we have done? So, of course, we would have gone on the first date. And then see what to do next. That's what we do, right? Let's go on the first date. Let's start from the beginning. Are you serious? Yes. Look, friend. We will live this relationship. It's life, we will live it. If we stay together, there will be attachment. Care will also increase. Then the responsibilities of life will increase. And this relationship will seem like a burden. Why don't we unburden it with love? Why don't we give each other a chance to fall in love? Before we take the next step. I like it. But till then. Till then. There is a sofa, there is a floor. I will sleep here. No, I mean. I know the bed is a little small. We will manage. And listen, don't worry. I will not bounce on you. Are you sure? You sleep on the sofa. You know, marriage is not the destination. It is the beginning of a new journey. And if there is love in this journey. Then the journey can be more exciting. This short film was made in partnership with ETMONEY. Investing in mutual funds can be very confusing.
