Quotes 

• Todd Dempsy : Why are you all dressed up?

  Manmeet : I'm dressed up for Diwali, man.

  Todd Dempsy : Oh, yeah right.

  Manmeet : You don't know what Diwali is, do you? Todd, come on. It's the biggest holiday in India, man.

  Todd Dempsy : I know what it is. I just think it's become a little commercialized, you know? It shouldn't be about buying stuff. It should be about celebrating the birth of the Baby Diwali.

  [Manmeet glares at Todd] 

  Todd Dempsy : There is no Baby Diwali, is there?

  [Manmeet shakes his head] 

  Todd Dempsy : Uh... laughing cow? Crouching tiger? Flying monkey.

  Manmeet : Okay, there does happen to be a flying monkey, but I feel like that guess came from a bad place.

• Todd Dempsy : Can somebody tell me what Diwali is really all about?

  Asha : It's about the triumph of good over evil.

  Madhuri : And the beginning of the new year.

  Manmeet : And it marks the end of the harvest.

  Gupta : And it commemorates Lord Rama's glorious return after fourteen years of exile and his defeat of the Demon King, Ravana.

  Todd Dempsy : Wow! So it's like a combination of Christmas, New Year's, Fourth of July and "Star Wars".

• [Todd has just told his workers that they can't have Diwali off] 

  Todd Dempsy : Can't we just be happy that the Demon King is dead?

  Gupta : Even the Demon King gives his workers the holidays off.

  Todd Dempsy : What?

  Gupta : Oh, nothing. Just saying that you are worse than the Demon King.

• Todd Dempsy : Are you letting your workers leave early today for Diwali?

  Charlie Davies : You have to, man. This is huge for them. I love this time of year. Booze, fireworks, no laws against how you like to party. It's like spring break before MTV got a hold of it. Check out this little game-changer.

  [Charlie draws a handgun and fires randomly into the air] 

  Charlie Davies : Happy Diwali, everybody!

  Todd Dempsy : Are you crazy?

  Charlie Davies : Relax, I'm pretty sure they're blanks.

  Todd Dempsy : Pretty sure?

  Charlie Davies : Well, the box is in Russian.
