Director You.
Hrundi V. Bakshi Me?
Director Yes, you. Get off of my set, and out of my picture. Off, off! You're washed up, you're finished! I'll see to it that you never make another movie again!
Hrundi V. Bakshi Does that include television, sir?
Director You ready? Action!
Director [Hrundi sneaks up behind a man and tries to stab him with a knife, he wears a very large wrist watch] [jumps to his feet]
Cut, damn it! Cut! [very patiently] Mr. Bakshi.
Hrundi V. Bakshi Yes, sir.
Director Has it occurred to you...that the period of our picture is 1878?
Hrundi V. Bakshi Yes, indeed, sir. I am well aware...that that is the period of the film.
Director Mr. Bakshi, are you also aware...that in 1878 they weren't wearing underwater watches?
Hrundi V. Bakshi Yes, sir. I know that. They had not even been invented.
Director You got the time?
Hrundi V. Bakshi [looks at his watch]
Yes, it's... [freezes] oh, my God.

Waiter
[A waiter carries a plate of hors d'oeuvres, oblivious that Hrundi's shoe is on top of it]
Would you care for some hors-d'oeuvres sir?
Hrundi V. Bakshi I am on a diet, but to hell with it! [Takes his shoe]
C. S. Divot Just who do you think you are?
Hrundi V. Bakshi In India, we don't think who we are. We know who we are.
Hrundi V. Bakshi Oh, look... you keep it.
But you may need it.
Hrundi V. Bakshi No, I'd like you to keep it.
All right. If you think that you should want it or need it sometimes...
Hrundi V. Bakshi Well, if I need it... I could always come, perhaps, and pick it up.
That would be very nice.
Hrundi V. Bakshi When would you be available for me to pick up my hat?
Well... [laughs shyly] maybe next week.
Hrundi V. Bakshi I'll come and get it then.
OK.

Goodbye.
Hrundi V. Bakshi Bye bye.
