- I can keep doing this. - Hmm!
But shall we do something else next time?
Like what? A date?
No!
No, I didn't say a date. Just talking,
like two regular people talking about regular stuff.
Hmm.
Why? You want to go on a date?
No. Not at all.
Talking sounds good. So when? Today?
Hmm.
- And no Maharaja talk. No CEO talk. - Not at all. Just two regular
people saying regular things, right?
Stop it, Aviraaj. Stop it!
Listen, I'm just saying there's more to explore in the palace. Yeah, so what...
Aah... So I'll show you the carpet samples tomorrow.
Yeah. Sounds good.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Okay.
Girdhari Ji? Yes?
Aah, the queen would like to see you.
Right now?
Yes.
- Okay. - 03 DAYS TO MAIN LAUNCH
Welcome back, Kunal Sir.
Sorry for being late.
I'm afraid Royal B&B's launch will have to be postponed.
- What? Why? - What?
Maharani Ji, our launch is in three days.
And the preparations are all ready.
You are aware, it is Akshaya Tritiya. Such an auspicious time must be respected,
Your Highness.
And that is why after three days, Aviraaj's coronation must be held.
And Maharani Ji, what about our launch? Our invites have already been sent.
We are ready to go.
We are ready and I don't think you understand
how big a problem this is for us, Maharani Ji. We really need your help.
You may not understand, Sophia,
that a Maharaja's coronation will happen only once in a lifetime.
And so would our launch.
Yes, but I assure you there's a lot more preparation involved.
More than forty royal families will travel to be here.
They're coming from all over India
But alas! With things as they are,
Fizzy's coronation will be less than usual but we can do it and it'll have to do.
Maharani Ji, what if we do our launch and Aviraaj's
coronation on the same day?
Huh! Huh, okay.
No, no, no, no, no. I think it's a great idea!
Yeah.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
Right?
And you know what? Royal B&B will foot half of the bill, too.
Invite whoever you want to invite. Make it grand.
This date is also auspicious for starting a new business.
It's great!
So, what ideas have you had for the launch?
Uh, Morpur will shine like a light. Top 50 hospitality influencers and we'll also
- invite all the top reporters to attend. - That's right.
If we offer these influencers front row seats,
every one in India will be talking about Aviraaj. This is going to be big.
We will make it big. Just trust us.
Hmm!
Uh!
Okay.
- Great! - Great!
And, Sophia?
Yes?
Aviraaj has to be told.
Sorry?
THE ROYALS
Kunal!
Hi.
I know I shouldn't have taken such a big decision without consulting you,
but at that moment it felt right and... you know how I am and... I'm really sorry.
Soph, your decision was absolutely right. It's a great idea.
- Really? - Yeah.
And Zubin?
Just leave him to me, will you? But the launch is up to you.
Kunal, we haven't spoken in a while. I really miss us. Let's do dinner?
Yeah. I've been thinking the same.
After the launch?
Yeah. Sure.
Thank you.
I'll see you.
Kunal, funders are really excited. They really want to meet you.
So, dress sharp.
I can't make it.
You mean, you didn't tell her. Kunal, why don't you just simply tell her? She'll
respect you more for it. Just because you've feelings for Sophia, that does not...
I don't have feelings for Sophia.
Yeah, right! And I am the Queen of England,
aren't I? Seriously?
We mustn't meet again. One mistake can be forgiven...
Two though. Two mistakes.
And moments of loved shouldn't be labeled as mistakes.
Two mistakes then must be forgiven. But no more.
You should know, day by day my queen,
you're getting even more ravishing by the second.
Don't flatter me. Aviraaj's heart wouldn't take it.
And who will look after my heart? It's already firmly in your grasp.
Alright. It seems, you are happy to crush my heart.
So I won't say any more.
Know this, my burning desire will not go away.
Are we here for a meeting or a date?
Well, your dress is definitely on a date.
Aviraaj, I need to speak to you about something.
Yeah, I know. Two regular people talking about regular stuff, right. I'll
start with school. So, I used to be a back-bencher but, I was totally...
Aviraaj, actually it's about work, you... You think we could stop the music?
Your coronation is in three days.
- I'm not joking. - Okay!
No, really. I 'm serious. The queen called me today for exactly that...
Whoa! Absolutely the fuck not!
Look! I know this makes you really uncomfortable Aviraaj. And I promise you
that only our launch was supposed to happen that day. But, the queen insisted
- that- - Sophia, just don't get caught in my
mother's trap. Please! Okay? You just put
your focus on your launch and just please forget about this coronation thing.
But, Aviraaj, think about it. This could be... this could be so great for us. You are
already the Maharaj. Honestly, it's just a formality.
This is not just a formality. This formality literally changes your life. I
need more time, Sophia. I'm not ready.
Okay. Okay. If you're not ready, I'll... I'll find a solution. Okay?
So, where were we? School. Sadly, I was a topper in school.
One second. How did you agree with me so easily?
You were insisting, then it must be something important.
And honestly, Aviraaj, I don't want to push you.
Look, clearly this coronation happening on launch day is important to you, right?
So just wait then.
I can't push the launch date, Aviraaj.
I had decided this months ago and honestly,
I don't even want to do it.
Why not? What is so special about three days later?
So, I don't want you to get weird about this.
Aviraaj, it is my parents' death anniversary
in three days.
It took me years to gather the courage to do something new this day.
It's probably really silly, but I want to do it.
That's why, I can't change the date.
Look, I... I told you, don't get weird about it because if you get weird, then
- I'll get weird... - It's three days later, huh?
Yeah.
Okay. Let's do it.
- No. - Yeah.
- No. - The whole thing. Let's
do it. Coronation and all.
Aviraaj, you are not up for it and I just don't want you to do anything that
- you don't feel like. - It's fine. I want to do it.
You're right. It's... it's just a formality.
Okay.
- Sorry, I ruined our date. - Ha!
- What did you ruin? - What did I ruin?
You said date.
Date, huh?
We've been paired for the next round of Gastronautics. That's the only reason I'm
- letting you practice, Dilip. - SILVER MOON BAKERY, JAIPUR
That's enough. What are you doing?
What's the matter?
- Are you here to wrestle? - No.
There's no need to hit it. Move. Scoop! Just fold it nicely,
and massage it like this.
- Let me try it. I'll have a go. - All yours.
- Foldly nicely. Massage. - Hmm.
Fold nicely.
- Everything alright? - I just have to get to Morpur.
You live in Morpur? Do you?
- Ah-uh. - Where?
Moti... Bagh. Moti Bagh.
The palace?
Yup.
You kept that quiet. You work at the palace?
No big deal. I do the washing up. That's all.
Could you take me there one day?
Even my mother is not allowed there.
Okay, then you are not allowed here. Move!
- What happened? - Just move!
What's wrong?
Just move!
Okay. It's difficult but I'll try to, though.
I'm not promising anything. I'll ask.
Massage.
- Massage. - Yeah.
In 1817, artisans from Lucknow made this sarpech.
It's not just a piece of jewellery but also a symbol of Morpur's history.
The diamonds and lotus carvings on it are a symbol of our Maharaja's strength
and dignity.
A gift from the Farsi Sultanate, this emerald is the symbol of the heavens.
The peacock on the sarpech represents the arrival of the new Maharaja who will
never abandon Morpur and its people.
Maharaj Aviraaj Singh,
the son of our former Maharaja Yuvanath Singh is being given this sarpech to
signify the beginning of his weight...
Be careful, Your Highness!
Sorry! Sorry.
Maa, can we do the rest tomorrow, please?
Is everything okay with you two?
Yeah.
Excuse me.
Pankaj?
Yes, the jacket suits you.
This jacket is a straight jack.
Your Majesty, during the ritual tomorrow, you will be given this sword and
- casket to carry as well. - As well as this. The
Maharaja will be bathed 108 times.
If you like, you can use this sword on me right away.
Go ahead.
- Your Majesty, what are you saying? - Your Majesty.
Yes? What is the matter, Rafiq Uncle?
He is not eating and has been vomiting as well.
When did this happen?
This morning, Your Majesty.
And you are telling me now!
It came as a surprise, Your Majesty.
Make sure we get the best treatment possible for Khan.
Okay.
I don't care how much money we have to spend. Doesn't matter.
Yes, Your Majesty.
You'll be fine, Khan.
A HISTORIC MOMENT FOR MORPUR, THE CORONATION FOR KING
AVIRAAJ WILL BEGIN SOON
The chants of "Hail the Maharaja" will resound throughout the city of Morpur,
here in Rajasthan. The Late Maharaja Yuvanath
Singh's elder son, Prince Aviraaj Singh will
have the privilege today of wearing the beautiful and historic crown of Morpur.
Sweetheart, are you okay?
I'm okay.
Sending best wishes, sweetheart.
Today is a very important
day in your life.
All the best, Sophia.
Yeah.
Fizzy, with being a Maharaja, comes loneliness.
But that shouldn't mean you push your family away, Baba.
- MORPUR - It is a centuries-old tradition of Morpur
that all the royal families and residents of the province gather here for the
coronation of the Maharaja. Royal B&B has made the ceremony more grand by
inviting social media influencers and select reporters to
attend this historic event.
Royal B&B was a dream, that me and my co-founder,
Kunal Mehta saw together. Today, all of you hospitality influencers
are going to witness a spectacle. A 'once in a lifetime' event.
The coronation of the Maharaja of Morpur.
- Wow! - Great!
And along with that, you will also see our dream come true.
From today, Royal B&B is all yours.
And now, we are open for bookings.
I honestly,
would love to bore you with all our business
details but Kunal is worried that you all might run away.
Until then, enjoy Morpur and it's beauty. Enjoy this special experience. And
- please, gram the hell out of us. - Yeah! Whoo!
Thank you so much.
Let's go, let's go. Lots of stories. Lots of boomerangs.
Please tag us in the photos.
Oh my God! Sophia has outdone herself.
So beautiful!
Diggy, let's go find Fizzy.
Do whatever you like, paddy.
But always remember queens private life should remain private, keep that in mind.
Are you well, Maharaja Dhondi? Hello there.
Namaste. How are you doing? I am great. I'm so pleased to meet you.
Nice to hear that. Excuse me.
What's the matter, Maharaj? Your eye seems to be twitching.
No. Well...
Namsate, Your Highness.
Perhaps, just expressing my heart's feelings.
You seem to need reminding. A Maharani should not be winked at.
Please keep that in mind.
Please, can you forgive my ignorance? But I would say,
when I previously made mistakes, my Paddy was far more forgiving.
Show your respect.
Respect? You're going to teach me respect, are you?
Should I be reminding you Maharani, this palace will soon be mine.
Remember that, my Queen.
Have you completely lost your mind? This is the Maharaja of Morpur's palace.
Who is soon to be my daughter's husband, remember?
I think you've misunderstood something.
Oh, I see! So you must know about us by now then.
Or maybe I should inform him.
Threatening me, are you?
I would never be so bold. It's just business that we're doing here.
Maharani Ji. I am so sorry to interrupt, but do you know where Aviraaj is?
I've given him the medication. It should take effect in an hour or two.
But...
But what?
But if Khan shows no improvement, then maybe we should put him to sleep.
You can leave now.
But, Your Majesty, your...
Did you not hear me?
Your Majesty.
Rafiq, listen, no one will touch Khan.
Of course, Your Majesty.
Aviraaj, I know a really good vet. We'll call him. Everything will be fine. Okay?
I told you, didn't I? That everything changes. That a coronation is not just a
formality. I said it. And you didn't listen.
That's not fair, Aviraaj. I just made a request. This was completely your
- decision. This is not okay. - He died.
Aviraaj, Khan is alive.
Listen to me.
I am listening. I am listening to you, Aviraaj.
- You're not listening. Listen. - Listen.
Can you hear me out for a second. Huh?
Okay. Okay, calm down. I'm listening to you.
He died. And I couldn't do anything. He left without saying goodbye to me.
Aviraaj. Aviraaj. He is with you, Aviraaj. He is in you. You are him.
How is he in me?
He is dead.
And when he was alive, I ran away. So what's the point now?
You have understood it, Aviraaj. You've finally understood everything.
You are standing here. You didn't run away.
You didn't run away, right? You did not do what's easy like
I didn't do what's easy! On this day,
I am doing the biggest launch of my life, Aviraaj. It's tough for me to do this on
this day! And I am only doing it for them! For my Mum and my Dad like
you are doing it for him.
You are only doing this for yourself. Not for them.
Do you really think, I am doing this for myself?
You know what's funny? I was doing all this for you.
Fizzy! Have you run away again? Fizzy!
Hello?
Together we will lock this traitor away. Wait there.
Even the traitors of Morpur are shown sympathy when I'm in-charge. Sympathy?
Fizzy! Fizzy! Fizzy, what's wrong?
Oh.
Is that better, Fizzy, huh? Something you ate?
What happened? Huh?
Okay. Okay, okay! Relax. Relax.
Relax.
I can't do it.
What?
Baba died, Diggy!
This crown swallowed him up!
Fizzy.
The crown is worn on the outside, Fizzy. His pain was on the inside.
I don't want it. I can't do it. Stop them!
- Okay. Get up. - Get up!
I can't do it.
- Get up! - I can't do it, Diggy. I can't.
What the fuck, dude?
That felt really good. Okay. Now that you're awake.
Come on.
Come on. Come on.
I can't do it. I can't do it.
You will be able to and you will do it because you have to do it.
Oh!
Fizzy, you were born for this. You are the eldest son of the house.
Everybody loves you. And that is clear.
There's thousands come from all over. Morpur has gathered here.
And they are here for the Maharaja. That's you. So believe me when I say it,
you got this.
Geniunely. Okay?
And I am here, right? Don't stress.
And I know without a shadow of a doubt. Baba would have been proud of you today.
Okay?
Okay. Go wash your face. You look like shit.
Hello?
How do I know what name is written on his badge?
- Ma'am, please. Ma'am, ma'am... Please. - How many people called Dilip work here?
We you-
There is Dilip. Dilip, just tell this man you know me.
Your Highness.
- Your Highness. Do you know this lady? - Yes.
You... You... You didn't message me?
LIsten Dilip or whatever your name is. Don't ever call me again or else I will
tell everyone at Gastronautics that you are one big a fraud.
Wait. Wait, one minute. You are getting this wrong. Come inside.
I'm not getting disqualified because of you. Maharaj. Maharaja.
Let me... Let me drop you in the car. Please come inside.
I'll go on my own.
- Your Highness! - I am not the Maharaja, you know.
Your Royal Highness!.
What?
All this belongs to Maharaja Aviraaj.
I'm aware of that.
Sophia, hi.
Nandini. Hi. Thank you so much. I hope Keertana is taking care of you.
- Congratulations. - Oh, don't worry about it.
- Okay. I'm glad. - Okay. Listen.
- Yeah? - Can you give me an exclusive
interview after the ceremony?
Sorry, Nandini. Not today. Kunal and I are very busy.
But I promise you. Tomorrow.
Okay, you leave that to me. I'll talk to them.
What happened? Did I say something wrong?
Not wrong. But untrue.
What?
I mean, Kunal can't give an interview with you because he is leaving your company?
Umm... Okay. I'm getting a call. I'll talk to you later. Okay?
You're alive?
So why aren't you answering my calls today?
Sorry to disappoint. Ayesha, we should... we should talk.
I agree. But you're becoming the Maharaja. Everyone's waiting. Come, let's go.
Hang on. Hang on.
Ayesha, uh, Sophia and I hooked up.
It's fine. Let's go.
Whoa-whoa! One second. Does it not matter to you one bit?
You guys hooked up. Big deal. Affairs have no real future.
But we do. Therefore, we need to move on. Come on.
Why did you come that night, to the ball?
You are okay though, aren't you? Adulthood bothering you.
Need help. Do you?
Don't worry about me, Ayesha. Please, will you just answer my question.
Why did you come?
If I'm to become a Maharani, I would rather that I became
one to a certain Maharaja. One who will be happy living in New York.
Leaving me to run Dhondi Hospitality. Let's be honest.
Moti Bagh's nowhere in your plans.
So, I don't see a problem?
There's one problem.
We don't have a future, Ayesha.
And you and Sophia have? Have you? Does she know that you like to run away?
From Morpur? From people? From yourself?
- Or is she as screwed up as you? - You don't know Sophia. And don't even
bother trying to understand her because she is nothing like you.
We both know she can never possibly be like
me. She is just a commoner, Maharaja.
Please leave, Ayesha. Pankaj!
Yes, Your Majesty.
Please escort the Lady to her car.
Thank you, Pankaj. I can go on my own.
Welcome, Your Highness.
I see! So this is Morpur's hospitality.
The Maharaj has sent a message, princess Ayesha will be leaving
with you right now.
Then in that case, mother and son have become
as wayward as each other.
Excuse me.
You are talking about the Maharaja of Morpur. I'd be careful if I ever you.
Another word out of place, and you will find yourself
thrown out of here.
Think carefully though, Queen.
Making an enemy of me could be expensive.
It just means that I will settle for something cheaper.
Money is not something I have at the moment.
Shall we?
Kunal, are you joining Sameera's company?
- Just give us a minute. - Oh my God, Kunal! When
were you going to tell me?
Sophia, I was going to tell you. Trust me.
When were you planning on telling me, Kunal? I found out from Nandini.
Sophia, this is not the place or the time. I'll talk to you.
Then when? Were you waiting for a launch or were you waiting for a press
conference? What is it that she's offering you?
Sell out bonus? She is doubling your stocks? Or a private jet? What is it?
She values me.
Oh! And I don't value you, right? Fuck you, Kunal. Fuck you.
Zubin also wants me to stay, you know.
Zubin what?
It's important you know, I have turned him down.
But Zubin also wants me to be the CEO.
The heir to the throne of Morpur, the son of late Maharaja Yuvanath Singh,
His Royal Highness Aviraaj Singh,
on the auspicious occassion of his grand coronation,
witnessed by his subjects has now arrived to claim his rightful throne.
Hi, Sophia. How is the launch going?
Zubin, you offered Kunal the position of CEO?
The board decided this, Sophia. I can't do anything alone.
Bullshit, Zubin. You have been trying to get
rid of me from the very beginning.
Why would I remove you from your own company? Unless you failed at running it.
How have I failed in running the company, Zubin? Everything is going well. Come and
see. What is the fucking problem?
What exactly is your definition of 'well', Sophia? Your deliverables,
your timelines keep changing. Your client relationship is complicated.
Your team is unhappy with you. Sophia, I have said it before.
A founder is not necessarily the best CEO.
Well, the CEO of your choice is leaving. What exactly are you going to do?
We'll get someone else.
Zubin, we had a deal. I told you, if I fail, I will put in my resignation myself.
Then why are you doing this?
Failure would not be looking ahead. Safeguarding our investment is a priority.
Zubin, this is my company and I'm going to fight tooth and nail to make sure that
the votes win towards me. You wait and watch.
Sophia, listen, the board wants you to resign. We have the majority. 6-3.
MORPUR
FIZZY
Your Majesty? Your Majesty! Namaste, Your Majesty. Sir, Ms.
Shekhar is nowhere to be seen. But, Khan seems much better now.
Perhaps you'd like to see him.
Dear Fizzy, today Morpur is yours.
I wanted you to receive this letter on the day you became Maharaja.
I tried my best to teach you the many lessons
concerning the dignity of a Maharaja. I often spoke about the loneliness
that can come with being one. In writing this letter I
hope to make you aware, that it's up to you now to find your true
love. Without love, we are all weak. Even a Maharaja is weak.
I spent my life listening to others and forgot to listen to my own heart.
I lived a lie. Until one day,
life introduced me to my strength. My true love.
All that time Fizzy, I had been wrong.
A Maharaja can feel desire, can banish loneliness.
Finally,
I want to tell you the name of your
Baba's love. And that name is Maurice.
