शैडोइंग अभ्यास: Controlling Girlfriend GETS DUMPED | Dhar Mann - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

So when you meet my dad on Saturday, I want you to wear the red shirt I got you with the khakis.

Like this.

So you want me to look like I work at Target?

He's not gonna think that.

Trust me.

In Indian culture, red means royal.

He's gonna love it.

Um, okay, but why can't I just wear what I usually wear?

My dad's a senior partner at a law firm.

You need to make a good impression on him.

You can't just show up looking like.. this.

Also, why are you wearing this beanie?

I told you I didn't like it.

Okay, why do I have to try so hard to impress your dad?

Because Indian dads are super strict.

And if he doesn't like you, he's not going to let me be with you.

Which is also why we need to talk about you getting a job.

A job?

But I told you I'm trying to start it right now.

Yo, what's up bro?

Yo, what's up?

Dude, what's up?

Yo, what's good?

Did you get your ticket to the Lakers-Bowls game tomorrow?

Arthur and I got ours.

What?

You're going to the basketball game tomorrow?

You didn't tell me this.

Yeah, look, I know.

I'm sorry, babe.

I was just about to let you know.

But Friday nights are our nights together.

So is every other night.

Look, I hardly even get to see my friends anymore.

Well, that's what happens when you're in a relationship, John.

Um, do y'all mind giving us a second?

Look, babe, I'm really sorry, okay?

It's just, sometimes I feel like I can't talk to you about these things

because you get really mad or you guilt trip me.

That's not true.

Okay, well, would you mind if I hung out with Arthur and Jerry tomorrow?

So you don't want to hang out with me?

See?

Guilt tripping.

That's not a guilt trip.

You know what?

Fine, just go.

I'll just be by myself on a Friday night.

Don't worry about me.

Raji, stop.

Stop.

Raji, where are you going?

I should probably check on her.

Yeah, I'll let you know about the game though.

You don't always need to do what she says, you know?

Yeah, you shouldn't have to change yourself to make someone else happy.

I know.

Thanks guys.

I'm just gonna figure this out and I'll hit you guys up later.

Yeah.

Later.

Can you please just stop being upset?

I just don't know why you'd want to hang out with your friends over me.

Look babe, it's not like I'm choosing them over you, alright?

I just like to see them once in a while too, you know?

Hi!

What can I get for you guys?

I'll take a sweet green juice, please.

Great. And you?

Can I get the Impossible Burger and fries?

What?

I thought we were on a 14-day juice cleanse together.

I know, but I'm so hungry that I've been feeling lightheaded.

I want an actual meal.

Well, that's how it goes.

I can just come back when you figure it out.

No, he'll take a green juice as well.

All right, two sweet greens.

Bring him right out.

I said I wanted the burger.

All right, look, I'm way bigger than you, and I can't just get by on juice alone.

Well, that's how it goes.

We had an agreement.

You said you'd stick to it.

You forced me into that agreement.

All right?

I didn't want to do this whole juicing thing anyway.

And it's not like I'm even overweight.

Yeah, not now.

But I don't want an obese husband a year from now when we get married.

Well, did you just say you want to get married in a year?

Yeah.

After you meet my dad, he's not just going to be okay with me dating a guy.

We are so young.

I don't even...

Yo, what's up?

Hello, what's up, dude?

Yo, man, so what's up with Tamar?

Are you going?

100

Uh, give me one second.

101

Babe, can I please go?

102

Seriously, John?

103

Even after I told you how it made me feel, you still want to go?

104

Okay, I'm really sorry, okay?

105

But I'm gonna be spending time with you tonight, and Saturday night, and Sunday night.

106

That's what people who want to be with each other do.

107

Hello, you there?

108

Uh...

109

Yeah, yeah, um...

110

Can we talk about the game later?

111

Seriously?

112

Come on, why can't you just tell us right now?

113

Are you really gonna be on the phone the entire time we're at lunch?

114

I'll call you guys back.

115

No, no, no, hey, wait, wait, wait!

116

I don't like your friends.

117

What are you talking about?

118

They've been my best friends since...

119

elementary school.

120

Well, you know, you're the average of the five people you spend the most time with just so you know.

121

I don't even get to spend time with five different people.

122

The only person I ever spend time with is you!

123

You say that like it's a bad thing.

124

Okay, I did not mean it that way.

125

I...

126

Maybe we're just both hungry.

127

Drink your juice.

128

Hey babe, guess where I went today?

129

Can you give me one second please?

130

You care more about your game than me?

131

No, it's not that.

132

I'm just about to beat this level.

133

Just give me one minute.

134

Hey!

135

Why would you do that?

136

I haven't seen you since school got out and then you're gonna ignore me when I walk in.

137

Besides, you shouldn't be playing video games anyway.

138

Why not?

139

It's a Friday and you wouldn't even let me hang out with my friends

140

and now I can't even play video games too?

141

Video games won't help you get ahead, John.

142

But you know what will?

143

What?

144

This job application I picked up for you today.

145

Job application?

146

I stopped by at a local law firm.

147

They said they're hiring interns.

148

The pay isn't that great, but it'll help you get your foot in the door.

149

I even went ahead and filled it out for you already.

150

Why would you do that?

151

I told you I wanted to start my own business.

152

Do you know what percentage of businesses fail?

153

Over 50% in the first two years alone, and then over 90% within 10 years.

154

It's not a reliable source of income.

155

That doesn't mean I'm gonna fail.

156

Look, John, I don't want my dad to think that you're not gonna be able to support us when we have kids.

157

Kids?

158

Yeah, he's very traditional.

159

I really think you should apply for this job.

160

It's gonna impress him and...

161

Hey honey, Arthur and Jerry are here.

162

Uh, yeah, okay.

163

You invited them over?

164

No, they were supposed to be at the game.

165

I have no idea why they're here.

166

Wait.

167

Yo, weren't you guys supposed to be at the game?

168

Yeah man, but we couldn't go without you man.

169

We go to every game with each other.

170

That's why we bought you a ticket.

171

Oh yeah.

172

And we are not taking no for an answer, my friend.

173

No way.

174

Seriously?

175

Mm-hmm.

176

Oh, man.

177

Go get some gear on so we can roll out.

178

Oh, dude, I wish it was that easy.

179

Raji's here.

180

Come on, man.

181

I'm sorry.

182

I'm going to stop letting her tell you what to do.

183

Yeah, man, you've got to live your life.

184

You should just tell her that.

185

Tell me what?

186

Go on.

187

you were saying?

188

That's what I thought.

189

Babe, guess what?

190

They got me tickets to go to the game.

191

So, do you think maybe- Absolutely not.

192

We already talked about this.

193

See, this is why your friends are a bad influence.

194

They don't respect your decisions.

195

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

196

Bad influence?

197

We're just trying to hang out with our best friend.

198

No, you're peer pressuring him into doing something he doesn't want to do.

199

Right, John?

200

I, uh...

201

So you don't wanna hang with us?

202

No, it's not like that.

203

Guys, come on, you know...

204

Okay then.

205

So what's it gonna be?

206

Your friends or your girlfriend?

207

I don't want to have to choose.

208

Well, you have to, so make a decision.

209

I can't go, sorry guys.

210

Wow, man.

211

You've changed.

212

You're not the John we used to know.

213

Have fun hanging out with your girlfriend. Are you happy now?

214

You just ruined my friendships with my best friends.

215

Wow.

216

When we're married with kids, you won't have time for them anyway.

217

Come on.

218

Let's go over your outfit for tomorrow.

219

I love the kids.

220

Don't even think about eating those Doritos!

221

How did she know?

222

Do I really have to wear this tie?

223

Yeah, so stop asking.

224

Let's go over what you're gonna say one more time.

225

I don't wanna do it again.

226

I'll be fine.

227

It's really important that you don't...

228

Dad!

229

I missed you so much.

230

I missed you too, how are you?

231

I'm good.

232

This is John, the guy I've been telling you about.

233

Hello, Samir.

234

It's...

235

You mean Mr. Gupta.

236

Yes, I do.

237

I'm so sorry, Mr. Gupta.

238

It's nice meeting you, sir.

239

It's okay.

240

Samir's fine.

241

No need for formalities with me.

242

Okay.

243

Sit down.

244

Relax.

245

Hey, great.

246

Hello, my name's Alex.

247

I'll be your server today.

248

How you doing?

249

Here's your menus.

250

Can I get you something to start a drink today?

251

So actually only my dad's eating, we're juicing.

252

We are?

253

Mm-hmm.

254

Okay.

255

We'll get two green juices.

256

Sure.

257

We're on a strict diet, but you should eat whatever you want.

258

You've got a lot of discipline.

259

Thanks.

260

More so than I can say.

261

You know what, I'll do the impossible burger, please, with fries and a Sprite.

262

That's what I usually order.

263

You haven't had it a few times, it's really good.

264

I'll be right back with your drinks.

265

Thank you.

266

Are you sure you don't want to order some real food?

267

Yeah, you sure.

268

Okay.

269

So, John, tell me about yourself.

270

Working or?

271

No, I actually, my goal is to start my own business.

272

What he means to say is he just applied for a job at a law firm.

273

Really?

274

So you want to be a lawyer one day?

275

Uh, yeah.

276

You know, I've been a lawyer my entire life.

277

And I'll be honest with you, it's a lot of stress.

278

You're young.

279

Now's the time to take risks.

280

I mean, why not look into starting your own business?

281

That's exactly what I want to do.

282

I want to be an entrepreneur.

283

Yeah, but John and I already talked about it, and he knows how important it is for him to have a stable job.

284

That way when we get married...

285

Married?

286

You guys are already talking about marriage?

287

I mean, it's a little fast, don't you think?

288

Yes!

289

Wait, I thought you wouldn't let me date Raji unless...

290

Well, we're not gonna get married like tomorrow.

291

We're gonna take our time.

292

But this year, for sure.

293

I mean, how else will we have kids?

294

Kids?

295

You're already talking about kids too?

296

What's the rush?

297

There is no rush, Mr. Gupta, I assure you.

298

Uh, Rashi said that that's what you wanted us to do.

299

Me?

300

Absolutely not.

301

Enjoy your life.

302

Travel, experience new things.

303

Now's the time to do that.

304

Yeah.

305

Wait, so I'm confused.

306

You told me that you're...

307

My dad is a lot more traditional than he's coming off.

308

Traditional.

309

Me.

310

That's a good one, Raji.

311

Wow, so this entire time when you said

312

that your dad wanted me to have a job and that he wanted us to get married and have kids, that was you?

313

So, was this time really that big of a deal?

314

You know, I was wondering why you wore that.

315

I mean, honestly, the only reason I'm dressed this way is because I had court today.

316

Otherwise, I'd probably be in a T-shirt and beanie.

317

Here's your drinks.

318

Thank you.

319

Sprite and your juice.

320

Actually, can you cancel my green juice?

321

But we agreed to do this diet together.

322

Yeah, but that was for you.

323

And now I want to start doing things that make me happy.

324

I want to focus on myself and...

325

I shouldn't have to change who I am just to make you happy.

326

I'm sorry, but you're a really cool guy, but I can't do this anymore.

327

I gotta go.

328

Are you sure?

329

Yes, I am.

330

Just need to process things.

331

Do you mind?

332

No, please don't go.

333

Raji, I'm serious.

334

I need to go.

335

Why are you doing this?

336

Raji, let him go.

337

You have to respect his wishes.

338

Thank you.

339

It was really nice meeting you.

340

Hey, hey, hey.

341

Come on.

342

It's all right.

343

It's all right.

344

It's okay.

345

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, you got this, you got this, you got this, yes!

346

Let's go!

347

You can play.

348

Oh.

349

John?

350

Hey.

351

What are you doing here, man?

352

What are you wearing?

353

Oh, uh...

354

Is it cool if I come in?

355

Yeah, of course, man.

356

Thanks.

357

Surprised Raji let you come here.

358

Well, uh, let's just say that Raji isn't gonna be telling me what to do anymore.

359

Uh, do you guys mind if I...

360

Yeah, sure.

361

Mmm.

362

I forgot what real food tasted like.

363

So you wanna tell us what's going on?

364

Um, yeah, yeah.

365

I'm sorry, guys.

366

I was honestly a really bad friend.

367

I let Rashi control me way too much.

368

And honestly, I finally...

369

Hi.

370

Is John here?

371

Uh-huh.

372

Do you mind coming out for a sec?

373

No, I think I'm good right here.

374

I'm gonna learn.

375

I came here to apologize.

376

I'm sorry for how controlling I've been.

377

Just controlling? And the guilt trips.

378

And lying to you about my dad.

379

I'm so sorry for everything.

380

I realize now You shouldn't have to change who you are to make me happy.

381

Will you please forgive me?

382

I don't think I could do that right now.

383

I promise.

384

No more telling you what to wear, what to eat, where to work.

385

Or to not hang out with my friends.

386

Yeah.

387

None of that.

388

I just want you to be happy.

389

Is there any chance we can try this again?

390

Also, I bought three box seats to the Laker game next week.

391

You can take Arthur and Jerry with you.

392

Really?

393

Are you for real?

394

You guys were eavesdropping?

395

Duh.

396

Come on, box seats?

397

You can't turn those down, man.

398

Hurry up and forgive her.

399

Uh, yeah.

400

Uh...

401

I forgive you.

402

Yes!

403

Thank you.

404

And I'll tell you what, keep hanging out with your boys for as long as you possibly want,

405

and just call me when you're done.

406

I'm sorry I like the new Raji.

407

Wait, how did you know where I was?

408

I may have enabled share my location from your phone a few months ago.

409

Seriously?

410

Raji.

411

Okay, but look.

412

I turned it off.

413

See?

414

Bye.

415

We just got box seats to the LAK!

416

Oh my god!

417

Oh my god!

418

Oh my god!

419

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

420

Come on, Shanks!

421

Box seats, baby!

422

Welcome to Behind the Scenes.

423

You touch my daughter, it's over.

424

Hello, Samir.

425

Boys need to do what she says, you know.

426

Be yourself, and they have to accept you for who you are.

427

You're gonna go hang out with them again?

428

You're really gonna go hang out with your friends again?

429

You got myself on a Friday night.

430

Don't worry about me.

431

Thank you.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
