01x08 - Episode 8

[bunniefuu]

[lively music]

[in English] That's Faisal.

-That's Jagriti.
-Faisal. Nice to meet you.

My first impression when I saw Faisal was
the guy with long hair.

This attitude, you know,
like, uh, just like a cool boy…

[in Hindi] The moment Faisal made an entry

things got spiced up a little.

[laughs]

What do I say about myself?

One thing is that
I like learning just like…

-Just for information, yeah.
-Just like to know.

To be like a better version of yourself,

-more informed, et cetera. Yeah.
-I love that.

I was, of course, very surprised
and also a little, you know…

[in Hindi] …should I just be her friend
or I should try to have a connection?

[in English] Because, of course,
it's about building connections.

I like girls with hoops.
I don't know, it's a thing.

-I love hoops.
-It's… it's cool.

[in Hindi] I don't think any of the guys
here know that these are called hoops.

[in English] Of course, they are called…
And there is a saying,

I don't know if you know. I shouldn't
say it. But you know the saying.

-You're smiling. Yeah.
-Yeah, got it.

[laughs]

He is flirty.
I would say, 100 percent flirty.

-[Dhruv] Interview.
-[Jagriti] Yes, okay, interview time.

Hmm.

[in Hindi] Do you think
more emotionally, or logically?

[in English] Emotions feel amazing
as a decision to have been made.

[in Hindi]
However, in reality, the result of it…

[in English] It's a little upsetting.

Honestly, if I were Dhruv,
I might be a little insecure

because I think he has got what it takes,
like, for girls to like him.

[in Hindi]
It's hardly been long since I'm here.

I hope I get a little more time
to spend with Ananya.

[Faisal] I just felt that it's important
that I and Ananya understand each other

as individuals,

so that in the future,
if something happens,

if we feel a spark,
we can form a strong connection.

[in English]
What do you think love is for you?

No, it's a big question.
Just generally asking.

[snickers]

My understanding of love is…

on a really hot day, like you wear shades
and everything becomes like, cool.

-Mm-hmm.
-It's like that.

The world is a really, really mean place,
you know.

If you actually look at it.
Like, look at the papers,

but you know, somewhere in this entire

like mean, evil world,
where things are happening, I feel like

that little bit of magic
is the only thing that there is.

Because as adults, we know,
there's nothing like magic.

But the only thing closest to it is love
where you feel like

you get butterflies sometimes
when you see the person,

like, you know, when you sat as a kid
on the ride, you feel that now.

Uh, sometimes you just want to look at
someone and stare at them a little longer

and, um… Yeah, it's a different thing.

Like, you know, you won't usually find
yourself doing these things but…

and then suddenly
the world looks different,

-that's how I feel about it, yeah.
-That's good.

-I like this answer.
-Yeah.

I really do.

I'm genuinely open to exploring
a connection with Faisal.

We both have a vibe going on
and we can just

start off by getting to know each other
as people.

[theme music]

Faisal's entry has shaken things up
in Ananya's life.

But the other three singles
are also about to experience

some turbulence of their own.

So far, the two worlds of real life
and online have been coexisting.

Or at least they've been trying to.

But for the IRL experiment
to move forward,

these two worlds will have to collide.

[Rannvijay in Hindi]
Meet Cute sent a notification

to the singles to pack their gear.

Because all four of them are going
on separate romantic weekend trips.

But they have no clue
that their romantic weekend trips

is not for two people, but three.

Our singles and both
of their connections together.

Singles will get a chance to compare
their chemistry with both connections.

And both connections will also be able to
see the bonding of singles with the other.

[in English] This is also the best chance
for the connections to claim

their single in front of their rival.

[in Hindi] This is why threesome
weekend trips are so important. Right?

[in English]
That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

[birds chirping]

[upbeat music]

[in Hindi] When I reached the connection
house in the morning to pick up my date,

both of the girls were coming out
and I was like, okay…

[in English] It's a trio date.

[in Hindi] I share a good bond with Sahib

and speaking of Sakshi,
we had a chat about starting fresh.

[in English] So I was still excited
to know more things about her

and how this will go.

I had mixed feelings
because I had Jagriti also with me.

-[Rohan] Hi!
-Hi!

[Shimona] I was a little awkward
when I had to hug him.

-Good. Yeah.
-Good? Good to see you again.

[in Hindi] I could not decide
if I can show my actual feelings

in… in that scenario.

-[in English] How do we sit?
-[Ananya] I have no idea.

[Dhruv] I will just sit in the back.
Then you guys sit in the front.

Let me go in the back.
It's all good, don't worry.

[in Hindi] When I came to know that
Faisal was also joining us on the trip,

it felt like he was being the third wheel.

[in English] On a scale of 1 to 10,
how awkward are you?

-Yes. Tell us.
-I'm not awkward.

-Just asking.
-You guys are friends, right?

-We're all friends here.
-[mutters]

[in Hindi] I have never done this
in my life and I probably never will.

How will Vidushi and I survive
in the same house if things go awkward?

[in English] Talk about something
in common that we all have.

-We have one thing in common.
-[Shimona chuckles]

What?

I don't know.
[laughs]

-You've met a whole bunch of dudes?
-Yeah.

-Thirty two to be exact.
-No, no, sixteen. Eight and Eight.

-You've been counting?
-Yeah.

-[laughter]
-Eight and eight, it's okay.

Obviously, you're going to see

how many you are going to fight
till the end, you know, last man standing.

-It's like a royal rumble, basically.
-It is, it is.

So, she has a thing. She just laughs.

-Like, literally, like I'm…
-Yeah.

I'm telling her something serious
about like, you know,

some people close to me
and she is just laughing.

So, that's her thing,
so like, it's just her thing.

[in Hindi] On our way, they were talking
about times when I wasn't here…

[in English] …so I could not contribute
to a lot of these conversations.

[in Hindi] So I was just listening
and trying to understand

what kind of bond
and connection they both share.

[Ananya in English]
Did Pratham find a connection?

[Ananya laughs]

Uh, so, the thing is that, that car ride…
I want to pay money to watch.

-Yeah. We all want to watch.
-[all chuckle]

[in Hindi]
Honestly, we had a rough start.

[in English] Yeah. Yeah.

[in Hindi] So, I got to know
that Pratham has told Sahib

that we both were holding hands
throughout our movie night.

Which was shocking for me
because I do not remember that at all.

Also, did you tell him
that I was holding your hand?

Yes, first we held hands,
hugged, and were sitting together…

-Holding hands?
-No, not all the time, but we talked…

-Yes! We hugged, shook hands. That's it.
-We were talking… Yes.

-Yes. That's what I told him.
-[in English] He thought…

Everybody thought
that we were sitting like this.

No, why would I say that?

[in Hindi] We had just decided yesterday
and we promised

we were not going to talk
about things that have happened.

But she started all over again.
I mean, why?

I just said that, at a certain point,

-we clarified everything…
-Yeah.

…and we were really happy
and then we hugged each other.

-And then we… we…
-[in Hindi] Never mind.

I'm really mad at you for this.
We've clarified this thrice.

Maybe she hadn't forgotten the past,
or rather, did not want to.

[in English] So it was really confusing
for me at this time.

Sakshi and Pratham yet again
got into their discussion about

what happened between them
and their entire past situation.

And I was just like,
"What am I doing here?"

[upbeat music]

I feel Vidushi, Sifat, and Chiragg…

[in Hindi]
…must be having a blast in their car.

[in English] Oh, I'm sure.

Chiragg is very comfortable
with both of them.

He is a happy guy.

He is comfortable with both of them,
but I don't know if he is comfortable

-with both of them together.
-Yeah.

[in Hindi] Can I say sex or you would
like to suggest any other Hindi word?

What is sex called in Hindi?

-Uh, Sambhog.
-What?

I… I, yuck…

-No way.
-For me, Sambhog…

[laughter]

-You can also call it bodily relationship.
-For me, bodily relationship…

-No! Sif, just call it sex.
-Okay.

For me, bodily relationship
is very important.

Okay, who are you talking for? Yourself?

-It feels really good.
-[in English] Oh, my God!

-[in Hindi] It is very important.
-[in English] Oh, my God! No, no…

[in Hindi]
Write an essay on bodily relationship.

[Vidushi] There were a few moments
where if Sifat weren't there,

Chiragg and I would have been playing
our eye contact game, but…

[in English] Chiragg could not be
what he wanted to be with me.

[Sahib] The one thing that I was curious,
instead of knowing what is happening…

I wanted to know where everyone has gone.
The location…

[lively music]

[Vidushi in Hindi] We were heading
to Jim Corbett. So on the way,

we stopped by for some Tandoori Chai

spiced with our desires

and the bad things that we've done.

[in Hindi] Has any of you guys done it
on the rooftop?

Open, in the stars, like,
yeah, whatever… On the rooftop?

I'd done it on a trek.

-Wow!
-Even I tried it on a trek.

TANDOORI
CLAY MUG TEA

Wow, guys! I've never even been on a trip.

Hats off! For me, really…

There were some moments where

Chiragg and Sifat were discussing topics
that they bonded over.

It did lead me to think that

even they're capable of sharing
a certain type of bond.

[Chiragg] Finish your tea now.
Isn't it nice?

Let's change the topic. I have nothing
to say and it's making me feel strange.

I guess I have not done things which…

[in English]
…maybe these people have been doing.

[in Hindi]
And, um, it made me realize that

I've missed out on quite a lot in life.

I don't want to miss out.

Taj Mahal is a symbol of love.

-[laughter]
-It's…

So we got to know that we are going
to Agra to see the Taj Mahal.

-When did you last visit Taj Mahal?
-Your last visit…

I think it was back in school.

I was in ninth grade then.
We'd sit together on the train at night

-and I'd tell everyone horror stories.
-You tell stories, too?

You never told me even a joke.

[laughter]

We chatted away as we drove down
windy lanes and reached a palace.

But when we reached there,
literally, like, we were all blown away.

[in English] Dude, it's beautiful!

[dramatic music]

And damn that fort…
It looked so damn beautiful.

[Dhruv in Hindi] After we entered, maybe
we just saw 10 percent of the palace,

and even that seemed unbelievable.

[upbeat music]

[in Hindi] As soon as I stepped into
the pool I was least interested about, uh…

everybody else over there.
I just wanted to swim.

I was having a good time there.

And after I finished the laps
and stopped at a place,

I saw these two love birds
huddled up in a corner.

[suspenseful music]

I was actually waiting for Faisal
to take off his shirt

so that I could see his physique
and I was happy to see that.

He had an average body.

Got to know we were going
to Jaipur. I was very happy…

because company matters
and I also love the culture and heritage,

and I've always been inspired
by Rajasthan.

[dramatic music]

[Jagriti in English] It was gorgeous,

like, for a minute,
I'd forgotten about Rohan and Shimona.

I was just, like, looking
at how pretty everything was.

It looks so authentic
and it looked like it has a story.

[engines revving]

♪ This is my time,
this is my time, coming ♪

So we went for dune bashing.

[upbeat music]

I think dune bashing is a lot more
like my experience on this show

because there are so many ups and downs.

-Oh, my God!
-Oh, my!

The driver was turning in any direction.
The show was turning in any direction.

-[Shimona] Do you want to stand up?
-[Jagriti] Yeah, yeah, yeah…

-[Shimona] Do you want to?
-[Jagriti] No… Oh, my god.

[Rohan] Just like the car getting stuck
in some places,

I also got stuck in some places.

I mean, I didn't know what to expect.

[Shimona] I was enjoying it
but I was a little scared.

He kept his hand and he was holding me.

Oh, oh, are you serious?
Are you sure about that?

[laughing, whooping]

[in Hindi] At any point, did you feel
awkward in the car? Tell me honestly.

[in English] Man, for a second, you know.

I can't… like, if you actually see some
third person's perspective, it's unreal.

How genuinely you have a thing with her,
I have a thing with her.

She probably has a little bit
with both of us.

-Yeah.
-I don't know.

The bond we've created,
the bond that I have with her…

she means the world to me, man.
I'm being straight with you.

[Dhruv] We met two days ago but, like,
I can see you're a genuine guy.

But for me, like, this bond…

this thing we've created
is so much bigger than everything else.

-You know what I'm saying?
-Yeah.

If you feel like, you can genuinely
form a connection, then go ahead.

[in Hindi] If you need some alone time
with her, take it. I have no problems.

[in Hindi] I felt that he is saying it
just for the sake of saying it.

Because how can someone say that,
"I like this girl a lot,"

and also "I'll let you go for her,"
in the same sentence.

Since you are new in the picture,

I don't want to be an as*h*le
and f*ck with your head.

[in English] I want you to be you and,
like, that's what it is from my side, man.

I just didn't want him to look stupid.

You know, I wanted him to know
the connection is already there

which is not, like…

[in Hindi] I was telling him the truth.
It's nothing wrong.

[ambient music]

-[Rohan in English] What are you thinking?
-[Jagriti] What?

[Rohan] About the ring…
The connection ring.

I can't, like, control the outcome.

-Right? So I'm not thinking about it.
-Yeah…

[Rohan] But it has to happen.

-[Shimona] Yeah.
-I don't know.

Maybe some people don't give the ring
to anybody.

Would you be one of them?

Rohan does have a fear of rejection

because of what Ananya and Dhruv
went through.

That's why he was… he kept on questioning,
you know, about the connection ring.

So about the ring…

Oh, God! You're obsessed with the ring!

I was just thinking about it. I need to…

think, should I give it to somebody,
or should I not give it to anybody?

That's your decision.

[light music]

[in Hindi] If we both fall

-whom would you save?
-Right.

-My reflexes are very fast.
-You'd catch us both in each arm?

-Half and half.
-I'll manage that. Don't worry.

[in English]
But I still wouldn't suggest falling.

-Come on, guys.
-I'll try my best.

[in Hindi] At any point in time,
if you need privacy,

let me know, I'll go aside for a while.

-What does that mean? Privacy?
-It's okay. I've never been to a trip.

But now, I'm going with my man's mistress.
[laughs]

Why do you keep referring
to me as "mistress"?

For fun, dear. Just for fun.

[Vidushi] When we reached the resort,

it was close to dusk
and it was getting darker.

Now I was nervous wondering
what we'd do next.

Whether there will be rumble
in the jungle or peace,

we were about to find out.

[dramatic music]

[Shimona in English] I chose to give
Jagriti and Rohan alone time

because I thought she needed that.

[Jagriti in Hindi] I feel Rohan
is giving me mixed signals

because I feel he is so confused.

[in English] He says that he has
a connection with me but I just…

I don't feel it.

Last time, when we met
for the dancing date, you said that, um…

"No, I was in a bad mood," this and that,
and, like, "Of course, we connected,"

and all those things,
but there was a point…

and then I was all happy. Then I was like,
"Okay, yeah. Okay, I trust him."

Maybe, he means something,
maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, but then,

I remembered something else
that you said that day

which was, um, that, uh…

"Okay, now that you said this we can work
on building a very good friendship."

When you and I talk, it's like,
it's smooth.

I can talk to you about anything
and you'd understand,

and you will talk to me about anything
and you can understand.

There's a conversation going.

-It's not like…
-But that doesn't mean…

Right after the speed date,
I felt that and I told…

I think I conveyed that to you.

[dramatic music]

On one hand, you say that
you want things to be organic.

[Rohan] Mm-hmm.

On one hand, you say that
there needs to be chase.

-Yeah.
-So what are you talking about?

I think you're confusing
both of these two things.

You know, I don't understand everything,
but what I understood after talking to you

and speaking to you was that…
that you're… that you understand me.

I just don't want you to think too much.
And take it easy.

Just relax.

There was this moment where I saw them
and I was like,

"Okay, uh, when will this get over?"

[jazz music]

[Sakshi] This is so beautiful!

[in Hindi] We are in Agra,
the land of Taj Mahal.

[in English] And the whole setup
was so pretty and it was so romantic.

So do you believe in love?

-Yeah, of course.
-Of course.

I have felt it. So I know it's there.

I think people stopped doing it nowadays.

[dramatic music]

They have so many options…

[in Hindi] …that if there are
any issues, they don't try to fix it.

[in English] They'll be like,
"f*ck it, I want to go."

That's actually true, what you're saying.

[Sahib] Let me know
when you are ready for a tough question.

-What tough question?
-[Sahib] It's about all of us here.

[in Hindi] What do you think about us?

[laughter]

[in English] Is that…

[in Hindi] It was so good in Hindi.
Thank God that he didn't ask in English.

I have a very good impression about you.

[in English] I meant both of us.

You know, when the time comes…

-Okay.
-Okay.

[Sakshi in Hindi]
Some questions shouldn't be asked.

It will only do more harm than good.

[in English]
Felt like a scene picked from a book

and was recreated in real life.

♪ You and me were meant to be ♪

♪ We're livin' a real-life dream ♪

♪ We will always be together ♪

[Chiragg] I didn't know I had a date
with the two prettiest girls in the show.

[in Hindi] When both the girls entered,
they were looking smashing, beautiful.

I couldn't decide whom to look at.

-Both of you are looking amazing.
-[in English] You look nice!

We look good together
and, um, I think black really suits him.

Cheers.

We had a small eye contact.
I think his eyes did the work for me.

♪ You'll always be forever
Yeah, you and me ♪

[Rohan] What do you feel?

-I mean, I connect with you.
-Mm-hmm. And?

I am that person who, like, does this.

Does what?

As in if I'm looking for one person,
I'll be just, like, into that person.

So you mean to say you are sure about me?

Yeah, I guess so.

I think I was wrong when I said that
I want to rush into anything.

Again, I was wrong when I say
I don't want to rush into anything.

[chuckles]

-It's just that…
-You want to rush into things?

I don't want to rush into things,
but I want to rush into some things.

-Okay, like what?
-I don't know.

I know what you're…
I know you know what I'm saying.

-I guess so.
-I really want to explore

and see where this goes.

[solemn music]

[Jagriti] I still did not get
any clarity from Rohan.

I felt so many things went wrong.
I was very triggered.

I felt unheard and, uh,
I felt really alone in that moment.

-You guys came here with a thought that…
-Yeah.

-[Sifat] What?
-You'd connect with somebody.

Certain expectations.

How far do you think you guys reached
that journey of connecting with somebody?

Initially, like, I was just like, okay…
Chiragg, um…

"Yeah, he is okay." Like…

-"He's okay?"
-[Vidushi chuckles]

-I got a very good vibe and, um…
-Yeah.

[in Hindi] Usually, in the first


[in English] Each time I met you, um,
there was something new we discovered.

[in Hindi] You were growing on me.
I thought we wouldn't happen…

[in English] …but I'm really like…
I think I am getting into it and…

[dramatic music]

[Chiragg] Okay.

I think I had very different expectations
but still, it was nice.

[in Hindi] Um, we connected quite fast,
and even after the first date…

[in English] I knew that I liked it.
Like, I enjoyed it, so…

When I came for this experiment,

the only instruction I had
was come with an open heart.

And I did. The more I meet people,
the more focused I get

that this is what I want in life,
this is what I do not want in life.

Filtration… Choosing…

So I'm surprised by the speed
of the process…

[in Hindi]
…that the filtration happened so fast

and I had to go by choice so early
and I had not expected that.

I was surprised with my emotions,
I hadn't expected that I'd feel this way

so early on, or that someone would ask me…

[makes knocking sound]

[in English] "What's behind those walls?"

[in Hindi] I've always been very guarded,
so it's hard for me to open up to others.

[in English] But it has changed.
That has been the most surprising.

The biggest takeaway.

[in Hindi] That be it friendship
or romance it's not so hard to open up.

[in English]
This is such a nice setup, that I…

I would have actually
really, really preferred, like, a…

-A one-on-one. Yeah, same.
-[Vidushi] A one-on-one.

[in Hindi] I was fine with the three of us
drinking together.

But I hadn't expected we'd sit
and talk like this together.

[dramatic music]

[in Hindi] That's it?
She's feeling cold. Don't put more.

-[Sifat] One drink…
-[Chiragg] My jacket?

Chiragg has lots of jackets.

♪ Woke in morning air ♪

♪ I left my heart ♪

♪ It's lyin' there ♪

[Faisal in English]
Man! You're so beautiful tonight!

-Like, extra, extra…
-[Dhruv] Wow!

[dramatic music]

[Ananya] I just went
and greeted both of them, "Hi,"

and I just looked behind me…

and damn!

That was the most beautiful thing
I've ever seen in my life.

I felt like a princess.

[glasses clinking]

Here we are on a beautiful,
beautiful date, amazing location,

with a gorgeous girl, and it's three of us
when it should be two.

Where are your heads at? Both of you…

I mean, my head is…
You know where it's at.

I mean, I've been here since day one,
so obviously, you know where it's at,

and, uh, I feel like I've been
misunderstood, like, a few times.

-[Ananya] Mm-hmm.
-[Dhruv] First, the ring situation.

And then, the Shivam situation.
I felt that.

-Yeah.
-That's all.

Your turn.
[laughs]

-[giggles]
-I can't have this conversation

without, you know, it sounding
a little bit of a sob story.

I have so much to say and, um…

I don't have the right words.
I feel like, you know, all my life,

I've kind of not been very lucky in love,

and… not that I'm saying
that I'm looking for it now.

Not like I'm saying that
I'm putting the pressure on you.

But I just feel like…
you know, for someone like you…

I was talking to Dhruv and I'm like…
Dhruv, like, "She's not my usual girl."

Like, she's… she's different.

[Dhruv] To be honest, I was not liking it
because Faisal started getting emotional.

I was getting a little agitated,
because where is that coming from?

You can't emotionally guilt someone
into making them want you back.

I'm glad you're happy, you know.

Um, when I heard that she wasn't happy,

um, like, some part of me was like…
"Yeah, man. I need to go fix that."

Like, genuinely, I'm like,
when I was told that she was upset…

I'm glad that you actually mentioned that.

-Better late than never. I came in there.
-Yeah.

And, um, I did my best for, like…

I know you like Kaju-Katli,
I got it for you. And, um…

I have like a few hours in like…
the few hundreds if you count.

But, like, I'll treat you like a princess
in that time that I have.

And then it doesn't matter
whether you pick me or don't.

It doesn't matter. I'll do it regardless.

He was too late to the party
'cause she's already like…

You're gonna make her
feel like a princess?

[Dhruv] I'm already making
her feel like a queen.

And I think, Dhruv,
you should take your time with her.

I'm gonna take a walk and I'll come back
and hopefully, you return the favor. Yeah?

[Faisal] You go ahead.
You all talk, yeah? For a bit?

-[Dhruv] What's going on right now?
-I don't know.

Huh?

-What the f*ck is going on right now?
-I have no idea.

Like, I'm not trying to be the…
Like, you know I'm not that kind of guy.

But, like, what he's doing is f*cked up.
Like, this is not who he is, man.

This sh*t is really pissing me off.

-What do you mean?
-Like, the way he's sitting here

saying like… like he's coming up in tears.

He's a different person right now.

I'm sorry, I'm sh1tting on him.

-I haven't done that for any other guy.
-Mm-hmm.

I don't appreciate what he's doing
and I'm only telling you, I'm not…

You do what you got to do,

but like… just be careful
'cause what he's doing is not cool.

I don't want…
I don't want you sitting here

thinking that I'm trying
to influence your decision.

[Dhruv in Hindi]
I'm not going to let anyone try and fool

Ananya sitting right in front of me.

[in English] That's my girl.
I'm very protective about her.

[in Hindi] Trust me,
I will not let that sh*t slide at all.

[Dhruv in English] I haven't said
anything. I've been here for a month.

You've been going on dates with guys.

But now, there's a new guy, like it's…

-It kills me, man.
-It bothers you?

[Dhruv] It definitely bothers me.

If you have so many issues, I think
you should have just given me that ring

and none of this would happen.

I told you, like, you know,
I'm starting to like you,

but I've fallen for you
and I have and I'm totally okay.

Like I'm…
I'm telling you now, like I said, like,

even if we don't end up
being together, I have no regrets.

-Hello.
-Because I have told you how I feel

and I have never done this.

[Dhruv] So you do your thing.

-Hey, guys. Yeah.
-Are you okay?

[suspenseful music]

It's so pretty here. We could barely
get enough of this place

-and now we have so much to talk about.
-I know.

And so much to say.
All of us and yet, not enough words to.

Okay, go on. I'm listening.

[chuckles]

-What about me, like, made you like me?
-I like your presence.

I like being around you.
I like the way you look at me.

[Faisal] I like these small things.

I have a question.
You don't have to answer, um, who.

-Um…
-[laughter]

-What is this… Ask, ask.
-Like, yeah…

Are you, um, romantically inclined
towards someone?

[suspenseful music]

-Yes.
-Okay.

[snickers]

Are you romantically inclined
towards someone?

-[in Hindi] Maybe.
-You're being diplomatic now.

-No. Maybe. I'm not sure.
-Maybe? Okay.

Being romantic means
I have completely given in, so, like…

-Gave in so early?
-[in English] Romantically inclined

-doesn't mean you're giving in.
-Okay, sure. Yes. Okay?

Fine, girl? And guy… Whatever!

-Whatever.
-[laughter]

Glad you had a great time.
I'm glad I got to meet you like this.

-Coming through. Sorry, sorry, sorry.
-No, please come.

-Are you okay?
-Yeah, I'm straight.

[in Hindi] When Faisal is around me,
it's a little different.

But whenever Ananya is around,
I saw a little change.

So somewhere I felt it's not genuine.
He cannot fool anyone here.

-How long have you guys been talking for?
-Quite long back.

[in English] Not right now. Since, like,
uh… since the beginning of the show.

My first conversation with her
was 10 minutes.

-[Dhruv] And second one?
-Five.

That's 15. And what about…
Then you had a video call, right?

-[Faisal] Yeah, there was a video call.
-Another 15.

-Fifteen in total.
-So thirty minutes

and then, now you're here.

Right? You know, you got like…
You teared up and got emotional.

Do you actually feel that attached to her?

[suspenseful music]

-Be honest.
-I told you.

I click with this girl,
I connect with her.

[Faisal] She's just different.
She's just not my usual.

In these words, I can't get
my eyes off her when I'm with her.

-[in Hindi] Did I or did I not say it?
-Okay, fair enough.

-I just want to know. It's all good.
-That's it. That's it, man. Fair.

Like, none of that. Like, honestly…
like, I was just curious man.

-I need a drink.
-Yeah, I need f*cking six.

Whatever this night, like… I'm not
gonna lie, it's been a little weird, man.

I'm being honest.
Like, it's been f*cking extremely weird.

[Dhruv] It's definitely not the way
I thought it would go.

-You okay?
-He was too drunk

to understand what I was saying, so…

I ended up feeling out of place
completely.

This is for both of you.

[guitar strumming]

[light guitar music playing]

[clinking]

[laughter]

[guitar strumming stops]

[soft ethereal music]

[Sakshi in Hindi]
The Taj Mahal looks very different

and more beautiful early morning.

[in English] The ambiance of that place
is so natural and divine

that you just get… get engraved in that.

Just seeing the Taj Mahal
and trying to wonder how

they could create something
so magnificent back in the day,

we were all, like, awestruck at that time.

[in Hindi] There was a moment when
I got emotional looking at the Taj Mahal.

[in English] Time for a safari.

[jungle music]

[hooting]

[squawks]

[in Hindi] I was with two tigresses
anyway, so I wanted to see a tiger too.

[laughs]

Again, Chiragg was in the middle,
half mine and half Sifat's.

The whole time Chiragg was like…

"I want to see a tiger!
Will I ever get to see one?"

Distracted! But my plan was

to spot tigers and all other animals,
but only with Chiragg.

[in English] Oh, it's looking at us!
Bro, what's up, bro?

-[Chiragg in Hindi] Right there!
-[Vidushi] Oh! There's one more…

[light music]

It felt awkward because Sifat
was holding his hand

and rubbing it to warm him up
and I didn't want to look.

[Vidushi] I was not even going to object.

Even Chiragg and I had shared
such moments.

That's when I realized
that Sifat was getting awkward.

But I didn't want to let go
of that moment as it was unfolding.

That's when even I felt that we were
taking turns to be the third wheel.

We were taking turns to be with Chiragg.

[light music]

♪ I'd be obliged ♪

[Sahib in English] First question
that came from Sakshi again,

was to Pratham, that,
"So, who are you exploring?"

And this time I knew that
that wasn't a good idea.

[in Hindi] I just asked you
what you were exploring

-and what you have explored!
-No, no, no.

He answered,
"I'm here just to have fun." Fun?

-I'm having fun, right? Fun is important.
-Yes, we are.

Still, he's asking my clarity.

When I heard the word "explore,"
I definitely went out to the first date

where I remembered I told her
about exploring, because I didn't know

that she was the only girl I'm here for.

I'll tell you this, Sakshi.
You told me to forget the past.

-[in Hindi] Never mind. I'm over it.
-[Pratham] Okay.

To form a connection

-Go a little deep…
-I want to dig in deep.

-No, not that.
-I mean the conversation.

We also need to talk a little.

When she brought that up again,
in Mehtab Baug, I lost my cool.

I wanted to smash my own skull open.

Two things are happening at once here.
It's hardly been 5 or 10 minutes.

-You said, "I don't connect with you."
-Yeah, well… I don't… No.

At the same time, you said
you are keeping your mind open.

No, but you're not understanding.
I said, I don't… See, I don't love you.

[in Hindi] This is not about love.
This is about connection.

What does the connection ring mean?
That we connect with somebody.

[in English] I don't know
what's the meaning of the ring, but…

[in Hindi] So we connect. But you
just told me, "I don't connect with you."

[in English] Yes, I don't connect with you
to that deeper level for sure.

Then you were saying you were open
for this. So I don't understand…

-So I don't understand…
-I know what that means.

-What it means is, maybe he doesn't…
-Please make her understand.

He's not connected yet,

-but he's open to connect.
-Yes! That's what I meant!

-Maybe.
-Hundred percent.

Please, thank you so much!

[in Hindi] I expect my partner

to take a stand for me
and show his feelings, it's like…

We should have each other's backs.

-You sound confused, Pratham.
-Sakshi, you're the confused one here.

-I just asked a simple question!
-I don't give a f*ck about the experiment.

[in English] I don't give a f*ck
what's happening. I just care that

I came here to find a connection.
But it's not something that I can force.

-[in Hindi] I can't impose myself on you.
-Exactly my question.

-I told you no.
-You couldn't feel it?

Yes, exactly! That was my question!
Yes! Yes, Pratham!

-So I told you just now.
-[in English] Yes! Very good!

Everyone on the show knows
I don't connect with you that way…

-[Sakshi] Yeah!
-Yeah!

[Pratham in Hindi] You are not able
to enjoy even at such a beautiful place.

Two guys are here for you.
Yet, you cannot enjoy.

What's the point of such a life?

I'm asking you a simple question!
Why are you here?

-You needn't scream for it.
-You are shouting.

You told me you don't have any feelings.

[in English] So I'm asking. Why are you
getting irritated because of that?

[Sahib] This was definitely
in the history of Taj Mahal,

the most unromantic date
that can happen there.

Get me out of here, God!

[dramatic music]

[in Hindi] I wanted to know exactly
where I was right now.

[Faisal] What is my position
in this situation, between them both?

[in English]
But then I also wanted to know

what my dynamic with her directly is
without Dhruv in the picture.

So I've always worn my heart
on my sleeve and said,

"Listen, you look beautiful today,"
or this or that.

Not once have you ever said how you feel.

So I just want to know, like,
what about me, as a person, do you like?

[Ananya] The first point you came, uh,
and told me was, like…

At first, I would like to get
to know you as a person.

So even for me,
I'd love to get to know a person first.

-then jump into other things.
-Yeah. 100 percent.

So when you told me that,
it was like a breath of fresh air for me

'cause, you know, a person is actually
genuinely trying to get to know me

like, who I am and, you know,
what I come from.

If I was here from day one,
spending time with you,

-things have been drastically different.
-Yeah, it'd be different.

It would be. Got a little emotional
last night 'cause I'm like…

I was being torn apart by,
like, sitting over there,

not knowing my place.

Should I, like, you know,
go ahead on my best foot

and, like, try to make a connection
with this girl?

Or like, you know, just be like…

Yeah, like let them do whatever
and I'll just sit here.

Because, you know, Ananya like…

You want me to try?
I will and the result doesn't matter.

I'm in a place where I don't know
whether I should try or not.

If you feel I'm worth it,

I don't think this question
should even be popping to you.

And if these questions
are actually popping to you,

I don't think I'm worth it.

According to you, not to me.

[solemn music]

-Are you friends with Dhruv?
-I am. We are friends first…

-Are you just friends with Dhruv?
-I wouldn't say just friends.

But you haven't once expressed
to me that you want me to try.

Why would I… 'cause it's up to you.

Why would I say,
"People! Hey, try for me"?

-[in Hindi] I made a huge mistake.
-Same here.

-I wish I'd never spoken to you.
-I wish we never met.

[in English] It is ticking time b*mb.
Because he is waiting for her

to sort of cut him out,
and she is waiting for him to say

that, "I'm having a connection
with some other girl."

So they both weren't
directly telling each other,

that "Dude, we don't want this."

[in Hindi] We ruined the mood
at such a beautiful place.

[in English]
It's a spoiled date for this guy.

[in Hindi] This guy might have thought
he would enjoy the day.

-But we're quarelling here.
-We're not here to enjoy!

Why else were we here then?
To build a connection and enjoy.

How do we connect without having fun?

[in English] Actually, f*ck this.
Bro, you just have fun, man.

I can't have this conversation because,
anyway, I don't want to be a part of it.

[Pratham] So just leave it.

All the best, Sahib.

Whatever he's saying, is that right?

No. No, I don't think so at all.
Not at all.

-I have a problem with you, Sahib.
-[gasps]

[both snickering]

[in Hindi]
Tell me something. Why do you try

to keep it balanced with everyone?

[in English] When you know something
is not right, why don't you say it?

That's my perception that it's not right.

But it can be right or wrong.

But this is high time that you have to

-take my stand also.
-I am.

[dramatic music]

[in Hindi] Sahib was behaving
a little different throughout this trip.

He was not feeling the need
to make a connection with me,

or that he needs to make some effort.

Earlier, the way Sahib took efforts
and did things

was entirely missing this time.

[in English]
So my genuine thing about this is

that if there is someone
who constantly needs love and attention,

it's wrong for the other person
to constantly give it.

Because you're spoiling them
in the long run.

So yeah, I would make her feel
special and loved,

but I won't spoil them to the extent
that they become dependent on me.

I am in a fix, Okay?

I have never felt like this…
Like what I'm feeling for two guys.

-Why does everyone talk to Vidushi?
-Why does Vidushi talk to everyone?

-Why does everyone talk to Vidushi?
-Vidushi meddles in everything.

-Why don't you get it?
-Why only her?

It's not like she's the most beautiful
among them all.

[Rannvijay] So far, you've had the power.

In your final choice,

when you've made the choice
is when the power actually shifts.
