Usmaan takes pity on Kittu and tries to offer him something to eat for free, but Kittu won't take it without earning it. He offers to help out in Usmaan's shop in exchange for room and board.

Kittu starts off his job by dropping a coffee cup on the floor. Usmaan asks him to stop doing anything and just observe the different tasks so that he may learn them without breaking anything else.

Nighttime, and Kittu's looking up at Mallika's house with a dopey depressed look on his face. Usmaan comes out and they talk a little about how Usmaan used to be a very successful businessman in the city. He calls his current business the U-Turn because that's what his life took to bring him to where he is now. He puts a positive spin on it for Kittu, hinting that while life might seem rough now, who knows when it will change direction?

The next day, there's a phone call at the U-Turn for a pizza delivery. No one seems interested until Usmaan mentions it's going to Mallika's house. Everyone starts falling all over themselves to take the order, but Usmaan calls Kittu over for his Big Chance. Everyone starts arguing until Usmaan says he'll take it himself since they can't calm down.

Everyone gets all dejected until Usmaan reveals it was all a joke, and that everyone wants Kittu to go up and have his Big Chance.

Kittu gets up to the house and is standing awestruck in the entryway. One of the servants comes over to take the pizza, and GASP! Mallika walks by on the second floor balcony without even looking over at them. Kittu nearly has a heart attack and runs down the hill to the U-Turn where everyone is waiting anxiously to hear what happened.

Well, it's been a while so we'd better do a song here. "Pucho Na Yaar" reminded me a bit of the song in Grease where the two people are telling their friends about their summers (I don't know the names of songs in American musicals, just the Indian ones). What we saw as a simple 3 second walk-on by Mallika suddenly becomes a tale of her swooping down from the balcony to profess her ardent, aching love for Kittu. I must have missed that part. Oh, and during this song we get another one of those Astonishing Subtitles:

This goes on for a while, with Kittu spinning a tale that grows more complicated and elaborate. Eventually the guys figure out he's making most of it up, and beat him with vegetables (?).

The guys then ask Kittu what he would really do if he ever found himself alone with Mallika. To further prove his "I'm not a psychotic stalker" claim, he says that he would talk to her about his heart and his feelings. The guys seem to react unfavorably to this, and we hear the movie's title a lot while they tell him to go for the gusto.

We jump to a very surreal scene with Mallika (now with really short hair) dancing around in a multicolored forest in a puffy white dress while guys in various colored jumpsuits drop down from the trees and wiggle around. I swear, I'm not making this up.

We eventually pull back to see they are shooting a movie, and it's break time. A journalist for an entertainment magazine comes over and starts asking Mallika lots of questions about her career and the movie she's working on. Seems like a pretty standard interview, but Mallika doesn't know the answers to a lot of his questions. We learn here that her uncle manages most of the business aspects of her career, including which projects she does and what her salary is. The reporter gets frustrated, since she's the second actress he's talked to today, and all the other one said was, "Ask my mom." He starts going off on how these family members are getting too involved in the process, when Uncle Meany err, Toluram comes in and shoos the journalist off.
