But I now got my answer...

Every year Bapuji goes to the Rome to attend the Roman festivals in honor of Ops. Ops is his idol. He loves Ops so he goes to the festival every year. Kya kare. He is worried that everyone in his house will worry about his obsession with Ops so he doesn't want anyone to know where he goes on August 10.
