All language subtitles for Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan (2025)

You know what's the most exciting thing
about train travel?

The suspense.

Oh, yes. Wondering, who will I find
sitting on the seat across from me today?

A snoring old man, a screeching infant,

or some annoying chap
talking loudly on his phone?

With such an air of expectation,

I was once on a train from
Delhi to Mussoorie.

Little did I know that my co-passenger

would change my life forever.

How do I travel alone now, Priya?

I can't believe
you could be this irresponsible!

Saba relax,
your Mussoorie stay is totally sorted.

I don't care that everything's sorted
in Mussoorie. You know--

You know very well
how important this is for me, man.

Hello? Okay, Priya,
And when did you even leave?

I mean, didn't we get on together?

I had to get off before the train
departed.

Fine, forget it.

You... You take the next train
and you meet me directly there.

Saba, don't worry. I've made a note
and kept it on the tray next to you.

You left a note?

Y-You left a note?
How am I supposed to read it

when I can't take this off
for two weeks now, Priya!

Hello! Priya? Priya, hello?

-Hello?
-Could you talk softly, please?

-Are you mad!?
-Oh shit!

Oh, oh shit.

I'm so sorry.

-What?
-Not you, man!

I'm so sorry!

Priya? Priya!

There's an unknown guy
in the compartment as well.

Do you even understand
how badly I'm stuck here?

What if he's like a...

I don't know, a creep?

Priya?

Hello?

Hello? Hello?

Priya? Oh shit...

Excuse me?

Can you just redial this last number,
please?

Do it yourself.

What if I'm a creep?

Listen, I'm extremely sorry about that.

I really didn't mean it.

But I need your help.

This blindfold, I can't take it off.

So, can you please just dial it, please?

Hey, Kiri, please redial the last number.

No network available.

You don't get network here.

We'll reach Hapur shortly,
you'll get network there.

Thanks for helping.

So, why are you roaming around
like Gandhari?

I'm... I'm an actor.

Oh, really?

-Yeah.
-Wow!

You must be really famous, then.

Not yet, but yeah... very soon.

I'm actually a theatre actor.

I've just been shortlisted
for my first film,

where I play the role
of a visually impaired girl. So...

In 20 days I have an audition
with the director, and

I just want to be 100 percent prepared.

That's why I'm going to Mussoorie.

So I can just be away from everyone and...

learn how to be blind.

Okay, good luck.

I hope your prep gets you towards success.

Thank you.

Can I help you with something?

Uh, no I can help myself.

Oh shit!

Oh shit! Ow... I'm so sorry.

Here, hold this.

I hope nothing got wet?

-My guitar case got wet.
-Shit, man!

I'm extremely sorry.
I'll call the cleaner right away.

Oh, no! Just sit quietly, please!

We'll be at Hapur soon,
I'll call the cleaner myself.

We're at the station, you can make
your call. I'll get the cleaner.

You shouldn't have spoken to me like that.

I said sorry. I obviously
didn't do it on purpose, did I?

When the lights go out for even a moment,
people panic.

So just imagine, how difficult would it
be if life were forever dark for you?

Give me something.
Spare some change.

Where's your attention,
your Bablu tea seller's here.

Strong creamy tea,
infused with saffron and cardamom.

Here, brother.

-Friend?
-Yes, brother?

-A cup of tea, please.
-Yes, brother.

Here, brother.

Thank you.

I was sipping my tea all alone,
so I thought I'd get you a cup too.

I don't accept food or drink
from strangers on a train.

Me, a stranger?

But I know everything about you.

-Really?
-Yeah.

Just what do you know?

I know that...

you're an actor, immersed in your prep,
off to Mussoorie.

You're really focused.

But you have one failing.

What?

You don't understand people.

This girl who left you alone and adrift...

you call a friend.

And the guy who got off at the station,

and bought you some excellent ginger tea,
you call a stranger.

She's not my friend, she's my manager.

Her stupid boyfriend lives in Frankfurt.

He was pressuring her to get engaged,

-or he'd break up.
-Really?

And by the time I sat down,

she just got off the train and now

she's going to Frankfurt to win him back.

God, I've always hated that guy.

By the way,

in your situation,
it would be apt to say "Love is blind".

Come on, it's funny. Man, you can laugh!

And here, drink this. You'll feel good.

Yeah.

-Careful.
-Thank you.

By the way, I'm known as Jahaan.

I'm Saba Shergill.

-Wow, nice name.
-Thanks.

Which of your parents is an artiste?

My dad.

He's actually a known
writer-director on the theatre circuit...

But how did you know?

'Saba' is an Urdu word that means
cool breeze.

No normal Punjabi family would give you
such a name.

You know the meaning of 'Saba'?

Of course I do.

I write songs.

And I listen to songs by artists from all
over the world.

So I'm a frequent diver in the
ocean of words.

It's so much fun.

Then you'd definitely understand my
crazy behavior.

You can relate, artist to artist, right?

What is madness, madam?

Merely a catch-all concept.

Whatever people don't understand,
that's madness.

For example...

Everyone eats ice cream in summer.

But how do you explain to people the sheer

delight of having ice cream in the
cold of winter?

Bless you.

Can I ask you something?

Uh, yeah.

How do you plan on staying alone in
this condition?

No idea. But... I can't back out now.

And if Dad finds out that Priya left,
and I'm all alone,

He'll order me to come back.

Fine, I guess...

Have it your way.

What's it like outside, Jahaan?

Ahh...

Outside?

Uh...

There's a fine mist...

Behind which hides a cascade of mountains.

The earth is still wet...

So the rain must have only just stopped.

And the sun's rays are straining
themselves through the clouds

to get to us.

Somewhere on this day,
a child will see his first rainbow.

You know... I've never seen a rainbow.

I've only found them in movies and books.

And today, when I've got the chance,
I can't open my eyes.

Who told you you need eyes to see?

Come here, near the window.

Now try and sense things.

It feels like something's flashing by

really close to the train.

Well done.

Now use the sound to see.

Are we on some kind of a... bridge?

Right answer!
You have won five crore rupees!

Yes! I did it! High five!

This has got to be the first
time someone's

so happy over losing their sight!

It's the first reward for my dedication.

It means I'm on the right track.

Seems like coming all this way has served
you well after all.

So, you never mentioned...
why are you going to Mussoorie?

My friend owns a villa in Mussoorie.

I'd stayed there four years ago,
and in that time,

I even managed to write a few songs.

But ever since, I've had a dry spell of
sorts, so...

I wondered if it was something
about that place.

So I decided I'll go there
again for two weeks,

and focus entirely on songwriting.

Who knows, fortune may favor me again.

You sound like quite a serious musician.

Sure, all that's missing is a blindfold
over my eyes!

Yeah...

Thanks!

What's wrong?

I don't know where I'm supposed to go,
or with whom.

What if my obsession lands me in trouble?

If Christopher Columbus thought like you,

he would never have discovered America.

Trust yourself, and wait a while.

That's just it, I can't wait.

There's nothing to do,
and I can't even enjoy the view.

You have a point.

Very well.

I helped you out, didn't I?

Yes.

Now you help me out a bit.

-As in?
-As in,

I've been trying to write
this song for a long time.

It's good, but it still feels somewhat
incomplete.

Give it a listen.
Maybe you'd have a few suggestions.

Okay!

Travelers on parallel paths,
Like two banks of a river

With you here beside me,
My heart blooms like a hundred springs

Travelers on parallel paths,
Like two banks of a river

With you here beside me,
My heart blooms like a hundred springs

With you here, I can finally believe

No matter our sorrows or regrets,

We'll make it through this journey somehow

We'll make it through

We'll make it through this journey somehow

Everything you say is sugar and spice
Your voice cools me

and soothes my soul, it soothes my soul

The way I'd only felt in dreams
Or heard in fairy tales

I've found that desire,
I've found that longing

Sharing life's joys with you
Be they many or few

If we just stay together,
We'll make it through this journey somehow

We'll make it through

We'll make it through this journey somehow

We'll make it through

We'll make it through

We'll make it through this journey somehow

We'll make it through this

journey somehow

We'll make it through

This journey

We'll make it through

This journey somehow

Greetings, brother!

Greetings, Shaukilal.

Careful.

I hope you didn't have any
trouble getting here.

Not at all.

You've grown so thin.

The number you are trying to call is
currently not reachable...

I see you've brought a blind
madam with you too.

-Is this Lady Justice your girlfriend?
-Shh!

The number you are trying to call is
currently not reachable...

Did you manage to speak to her?

You know what? This is a challenge!

What?

Yeah, man!

When I win the best actress award
for this role,

that's exactly what I'll say when
I'm on the stage...

How I remained so stunning and brave
through such tough times.

Well... All the best.

When your film releases,
I'll make sure to go watch.

Let's go, Shaukilal.

Wait! You'd leave a friend alone
in such tough times?

I wouldn't want to be the reason you have
a shorter speech.

Why... Jahaan, my friend...

This is your moment, right, to be part of
that amazing speech?

Thank you so much for your generous offer,
but I'm better off just writing songs.

Look, I'm all alone here,
and I don't know anybody.

You're going to Mussoorie, and so am I.

All I'm asking is that you help
me check in,

wherever you might be staying.
That's all!

After that,
I promise I'll handle everything.

Uh...

Please... What's there to think about?

You'll receive a blind person's blessings!

But Jahaan's blind too--

What?

No, what he means to say is...

The whole world's blind after all!

Only they see who truly seek to know.

On the back of which truck
did you read that?

The same one you'll be hitching a ride
from right back to Delhi.

Bye.

Wait, I was just kidding!

Give me your hand. Uh, my bags, please.

-Man, you're clingy.
-Who the hell did Jahaan just pick up?

Come, come, let's go.

You see, in the beginning
the fruit is unripe.

But the unripe fruit gradually ripens...

And when the fruit is ripe

then suddenly birds appear on the branches

and loudly proclaim for the world to hear,

"The berries are ripe!"

"The berries are ripe!"

Oh, come on! How can birds talk?

Why, madam, our native birds
can say a lot of things.

They say, "The berries are ripe!"

"We want to taste them!"

Jahaan!

What they mean is, "The berries are ripe,
but we haven't tasted them yet."

Jahaan please, don't tell me
you believe this nonsense too.

If a lie is more appealing than the truth,
what's the harm in believing it?

God, can't you just talk like
normal people?

So, uh... How much farther?

Just a while longer. What's the matter?

Such a beautiful drive, enjoy it.

You probably never ate almonds as a kid.
You forgot I can't see.

You need those almonds more.

Didn't I say, you don't need eyes
to see.

Come closer.

Breathe in deep the sweet smell
of the grass.

Feel the cold nip in the air.

Touch its moisture.

Listen to the flow of the river,
and imagine its current.

And ask...

What?

When do we reach the next Maggi point?

Brother, Maggi.

Wonderful!

Here, some Masala Maggi
for our new divinely-sighted one.

New what?

It's the politically correct word
for blind people... 'Divinely-sighted'.

Can I ask something?

Ask, go on.

How do you know so much about blindness?

Uh, I had a relative who was blind.

By the way...

Shall I tell you the biggest problem
with being blind?

-Hmm.
-Come closer.

You never know if there's someone nearby.

So sometimes it gets very difficult to,
you know, uh...

Fart.

I'm serious!

Brother! Here's your favorite...

Freezing cold ice cream
in freezing cold weather!

That too in a double cone!

Thank you, Shaukilal.

How can you have that
in such cold weather, man!

You have one too, it'll fix your cough
and cold. Here, take this.

-Oh no, I can't...
-Just take it, seriously!

Eat it.

Here, it's right in front of you.

Okay?

Cheers!

Cheers!

Sorry ma'am, we don't have a single
room for the next four days.

What to do now?

Brother, why don't you two stay together?

Sure. We'll even serve you
complimentary meals.

Of course,
if ma'am doesn't have a problem.

I have a problem! Why don't you ask me?

I won't share my room with anyone,
got it? Pipe down.

Can you please just check again,
just one last time, please?

I have checked twice, ma'am.

Not just here, for the next four days you
won't find a room anywhere in Mussoorie.

This is peak season, ma'am,
so it's all full up.

Jahaan, I'll sleep in your living room.

It's... just four days.

-Please, please...
-Saba, Saba, just hear me out, please.

I've already helped you a lot,
I'm just not comfortable with this.

And I've come here to write songs,
and not be distracted.

Please, I hope you understand.

Okay...

I'll leave, with nowhere to go.

Listen, brother.

We having a saying: "Cash lying on the
road, or a woman in a mood...

always pick it up.

Oh dear, madam, you fell!

Easy now, easy, here...

Easy now, give me your hand.

If you blindfold yourself,
what else do you think will happen?

-Sure you'll have a room in four days?
-Yes, sir.

-Fine, book it.
-Yes, sir.

Brother, in my childhood, it used to snow
all the way down to Dehradun.

Hmm?

Nowadays, even Mussoorie sees less
snowfall. You see?

And all of this is because of
global warning.

-Yes.
-Not 'warning', it's 'warming'.

What? It's warning.

-Warming.
-Oh?

Okay brother, I've got everything
you asked for...

Eggs, potatoes, onions, tomatoes.

If you need anything else,
just tell me--

Oh, brother, what's this?
There was no need!

Just keep it, Shaukilal.

Really, brother...

Oh, and I've also hung up the
lime and chili good-luck charm...

Didn't I say not to!

I told you, it's all superstition.
Go, take it off.

Why lime and chilies?

People here hold a silly belief that
this place is haunted.

Brother, it's not silly. It's true.

But... what's the story?

Madam, where do I even begin?
Such a story...

It's a blood-curdling tale.

This whole area was built up
by the British.

The wife of one Englishman had an affair

with a local Indian doctor.

That Englishman...

landed up right here.

He caught the doctor...

with his wife.

He hacked them both to pieces...

And buried them in this very spot,
where you're standing now.

It's said that ever since, that
English wife...

her spirit...

haunts this spot wearing a white sari--

If she's an English ghost,
why does she wear a sari?

I'm telling you, it's nonsense.

Oh brother, why look for logic in magic?

Besides, this is black magic.

I'll take your leave now. Ciao.

Bye.

Pay no mind to his stories.

Okay.

Come, I'll give you a tour of the cottage.

So here, to your left is the fridge.

Next to that we have...

A microwave...

And this?

Two kitchen shelves with all sorts
of stuff.

Shaukilal will give you the details
in the morning.

A little further ahead,

you find the kitchen counter.

And if you walk
three feet ahead from here,

you'll find a four-gas stove.

Okay.

Okay. Uh... Thanks!

I'll go freshen up, then I'll make dinner.

-Okay?
-Okay.

Okay.

Shit... I'm okay, I'm okay!

All the best, Jahaan.

The Englishman came...
hacked them to pieces...

buried them right here...

Ever since then... the English wife...

The Englishwoman's ghost haunts
this spot in a white sari...

Jahaan...

Why are you screaming?

If you creep into my room in the dead of
night, obviously I'll scream!

Why did you scream?

You started screaming,
so I got scared too!

You have such a scary scream!

Just because I'm a musician,
do you want me to scream in key?

Besides, what are you doing in my room
at this hour?

I couldn't sleep.

I'm so terrified
after your driver's story.

So?

So...

Can I sleep in this room, please?

Are you looking for an excuse to
get close to me?

Oh, please. I'm a girl, we don't need
excuses. If we want it, we get it.

I have no interest in sleeping next to
you. It's self-preservation, that's all.

Okay.

But no snoring.

And I'll keep a pillow
between us, don't cross it.

Yes, yes. Same for you also.

Okay. Good night.

Good night.

Shit, shit, shit!

Papa calling.

Yes, Papa? I just woke up.

So, how's the prep going?

Very good, Papa.

It's difficult, but I'll work it out.

Hmm.

But this is the last time,
okay?

If this screen test doesn't work out,

you'd better come back to theatre.

Papa, why are you always so negative?

Why can't you just support your daughter?

This is support, my child!

You're such a good artist,
everyone on the Delhi circuit knows you.

But you want to leave it all
for Bollywood.

They don't give a crap about talent.
Only stardom sells.

Papa, stardom may sell.

But talent shines.

And I will beat stardom with my talent.

Listen, dear.

It's still not too late.

Bhushan's son, Abhinav,

is an NSD grad. He does good work.
He's planning to stage a new play.

If you like, I could recommend you to him.

Papa, at least let me give this a try.

All right, then.

Give it your 100%.

The rest is up to destiny.

-Bye.
-Bye, then.

Saba!

Saba!

Saba!

Saba...

Saba, where are you!

Jahaan? I'm here.

Saba... Saba, open all the doors and
windows, please!

What? But why?

Saba, just do it, I say!

Open all the doors and windows at once!

Jahaan, what's wrong? Shall I get
you some water? Why are you panting?

Don't do anything, please.
Just get out of here!

A major accident was just averted.
Do you even have a clue?

Wh.. What happened, Jahaan?

We could have just died, Saba!

The gas was leaking all this time
and you didn't notice?

I was walking down with lit incense,
thank goodness the spark went out first.

I'm sorry Jahaan, I'm really sorry.
I won't do anything without you, I--

Saba, Saba. Just listen to me.

You staying here
alone with me is simply not safe.

Please just go. Please leave.

But Jahaan... You saved us, right?
You're so brave. So it's sorted, right?

Why don't you understand, man!

I'm not safe for you!
What if the gas had caught fire?

Today, we were just plain lucky, Saba.
Plain lucky. Do you get that?

What's the point of all this luck
if I go back and fail the screen test?

For god's sake,
you'll land some other role then!

That's easy to say...

But first-timers never get offered
such roles.

This could change my life.

For the first time
they don't need a star, but an actor.

What sort of actor? Huh?

What you call acting is raising disaster.
Sometimes you'll cut your finger,

sometimes you're all set to burn
the house down.

No wonder your manager left you
there and ran away.

She didn't run away, she had to leave!

And I'm not trying to burn the house down,
I have a cold so I didn't notice.

She has a cold!

I'm really sorry, Jahaan,
that I'm not perfect like you.

But I'm trying, aren't I?

You're an artist,
you of all people should understand.

I understand, I understand very well.

Now you understand me clearly.

Pack your stuff, and get out of here.

Why are you panicking so much, man?

Oh, because...

Because I lied to you!

I'm not capable of looking after you.

Because unlike you,
in real life I can't see--

The berries are ripe!

We want to taste them!

The berries are ripe!

We want to taste them!

All that was missing was you.

What's wrong with brother?

He's mad at something.

Mad means crazy, right?

Mad also means angry.

How? How can one word have two meanings?

If your birds can talk,
anything's possible.

You weren't ready to believe, right?

So I brought one with me.

The berries are ripe!

Now it's on my head.

More than brother Jahaan,
madam, it's you who looks mad!

What do I do? Being stuck in here has
turned us into hotheads!

Is that all? Then come with me!

The cure for all ills, is the fresh
cool breeze.

You two have some tea.

My wife is getting quite cantankerous,

I'll just give her a quick call.

I was seven years old, and going to the
movies with my parents...

When suddenly, a truck came
right in front of our car.

Papa swerved hard to avoid it,

and the car skidded and crashed
into the divider.

I was seated at the back,
so the people managed to pull me out.

But before they could do anything else...

The car burst into flames.

Right before my eyes, my parents...

Ever since, I'm terrified of fire, Saba.

That's why, when the gas leaked today,
I panicked.

And I know...

I shouldn't have talked to you that way.
I'm really very sorry.

So who did you grow up with?

With my grandparents.

They tried really hard...

but I wouldn't open up to anyone.

Perhaps a seven-year-old's silence
felt too loud.

Then one day,
my grandmother gifted me a guitar.

Since then, the guitar became
my best friend.

The tears dried up and became words,

people called it poetry
and began to listen.

Wait a minute.

Are you telling me you can't cry?

No.

But, I mean, how can that be?

At some point you must feel like it's all
too much and you're going to burst, right?

Let me guess...

you've never shared this accident story
with a friend, right?

I don't have many friends.

You're not a psycho, are you?

If I stay with you another few days
I'm sure I'll end up as one.

Actually, it's not like that.

I'm a little different.

And anyway, what good will sharing do?
Nobody can fix it, you know.

It's not about fixing, Jahaan.

You go around carrying

this pile of rocks, it's too heavy.

And people share so that they don't have
to carry that burden alone.

You know what...

-Get up.
-Why, what's wrong?

Just, just get up.

Yell, loudly!

What?

Yell!

-Yell what?
-Just... Yell, man!

I don't understand, Saba.

Just scream.

Okay, okay.

Do you have toothache?

Scream from within.

Saba, there must be people around,
what will they think...

What's that to me? I can't see.

Let's go, come on.

How'd that feel?

It felt good.

Can I try again, please?

Let's do it together.

-Okay?
-Okay.

Let's go!

Three... Two... One!

Hello?

Sir, actually a guest checked out early,

so... if you want,
we can book a room for ma'am.

Uh...

No need.

She'll stay with me.

Sure, sir. Thank you.

Thank you.

Saba!

These swirling winds

Blow their blessings at us

Listen, what do they say

What could this be?

The valleys laugh too

As they wish us well

That's the sort of effect

you have on me

I'm in love for the first time

My eyes light up at the sight of you

You're all that I can see

Every raindrop reflects the color of you

shining like never before

That's how it feels at the sight of you

The light that glimmers through the leaves

as it watches over our path

In truth, it secretly

is gazing just at you

The music of the songbirds

are all a chorus sung to you

The rivers and cascades

Grow joyous when you come to see them

All those pining souls who seek your abode

Are pilgrims just like me

who worship you as their Almighty

Like the melting sun on icy peaks

Like a pristine untouched landscape

There's no greater sight than you

I'm in love for the first time

It's like clouds take the shape of you

You're all that I can see

O love

O love, my love, my love

O my love

My frozen dreams begin to thaw

Beneath your gaze love begins to grow

Every journey, every path feels like
the scenic route

As you light up my darkness

Life seems to spring with hope again

When you're along, everything is beautiful

I'm in love for the first time

My eyes light up at the sight of you

You're all that I can see

Every raindrop reflects the color of you

Shining like never before

that's how it feels at the sight of you

O love, my love, my love

O my love

You're all that I can see

Jahaan, my dear! How's it going?

"I'm in love for the first time,

my eyes light up..." Awesome, man!

What a line, and how well you sing!

Whoever this girl is,
all this inspiration you're getting...

Just lap it up like starving beggar,
and you'll be unstoppable.

I guarantee you!

I don't know, man.

Anything that's built on a lie
is the first to fall.

You know,
I think I should tell her everything.

Come on. You're there to write songs,
aren't you?

So write songs.

If you act too righteous,
she'll run away. Get it?

-Fine.
-Okay, bye.

You take care.

Bye.

-Jahaan!
-Saba?

-Jahaan!
-Saba?

Come here, hurry!

-Saba!
-Jahaan!

What's wrong?

Something swooped across my face
and flew upstairs!

Ah!

It must be the same bird that Shaukilal
brought over the other day.

You mean, it was staying with us
all this time?

I mean it's harmless.

Harmless how, Jahaan?
It just bumped into me!

Come on, maybe it just couldn't
find the way out.

Jahaan... Please go check
upstairs and chase it out, please!

You're unbelievable.

You weren't scared of staying
with a strange guy,

But you're terrified of a tiny bird?

You don't flap. It does!

I'm really scared of birds, Jahaan.
Please!

Who gets scared of birds?

I was just off to a nice shower...

Chase it off, then you can shower. Okay?

Yes, ma'am. Just give me two minutes.

Okay.

Bird!

Not funny, Jahaan!

Oh, shit! Oh, shit!

Yuck!

Saba! Saba, I'm really sorry,
I don't know how that got loose.

I...

Could just...

Open my eyes if I want.

No! No, Saba, you can't do that!

The towel is in my possession.

Saba... Saba, you really can't do this...

You can't break your prep
for a stupid joke!

Why not? Weren't you just telling me
to leave earlier?

Earlier was different, but now I'm okay.
I'm good! I'm very good!

-And commando.
-Saba!

What sort of talk is that?

You're from a decent family,
you can't do this!

-Say sorry.
-Huh?

Say sorry, or I'll open my eyes.

Okay! Sorry.

I'm sorry, okay?

I'm sorry... Sorry...

Stay up there!

Or I'll open my eyes.

Now, praise me.

Ten genuine things.

-Saba, this is--
-Blackmail. I know.

You know what...

Open your eyes. I don't care.

Fine. I'll open them.

Go ahead.

Jahaan, I'll count to three
and really open them.

Open them now. Now. I don't care.

Jahaan, I'm very serious right now.

And I... am very naked right now.
So I really don't care.

Okay. Fine.

Three... Two...

Hi, Papa! Just...

I... I'll call you in some time, okay?

Okay... Yeah. Bye. Bye, bye.

Jahaan?

Hmm?

What's the matter?

Saba...

You can't see clearly right now.

The blindfold is over my eyes, Jahaan.

Not my brain.

I know.

I know. But...

Maybe when you can see,
you may not like it.

Why?

Because you don't even know
what I look like.

But I know what you feel like.

Aren't you... attracted to me?

How can you even ask, Saba? We just--

Kissed!

We're both adults, Jahaan.
We can sit down and talk.

Saba, try and understand
what I'm saying, please.

-Just try and understand.
-Fine.

-I recognize rejection. It's fine.
-Come on, Saba...

-That's not what I meant...
-I said it's fine... I said it's...

Just leave me...
Just leave me alone. Okay?

Saba?

Saba!

Saba?

Can I come in, please?

Why?

You pushed me away in the morning.

To be honest,
Shaukilal's story has got me scared too.

Okay, listen to me.

Open the door, we'll sit down and talk.

No, Jahaan.

I can't do this anymore.

To be this dependent on someone else...

Having to hold your hand
to get from place to place...

I can't do it any more.

Saba... But...

Just, please...

Let me speak.

I understand how much trouble
I've caused you...

with my stupid blindness.

You know, I'm fed up myself. I'm...

I'm fed up of being blind.

This eye mask suffocates me now.

I can't wear this again.

I feel trapped by this darkness.

But it's just one more day, Saba.

Hmm?

No...

Not another second.

Anyway, I'm...

I'm almost ready for my screen test.

But you've already come this far.

Just a little longer, that's all.

No, Jahaan.

I don't want more darkness in my life.

But what suddenly happened?

Did I do something wrong?

I don't know.

When I came here, I...

I thought blindness meant only darkness.

Now I've understood...

people start to give you undue sympathy...

think of you as less of a person...

Start taking decisions for you,
it's very frustrating.

You know, even if they mean well.

Yeah.

The blind don't need pity...

they need dignity.

They need love.

I can't wait any longer.

Shall I open the door?

Jahaan?

Open it.

If looking at me would make you happy,

then open the door right now.

-You sound angry.
-No...

No, I'm not angry at all.

In fact...

For the first time in my life I've met a
girl who's different from the others.

Driven by her weird obsession,
she took my hand.

The only fear now is,
when she lets go of her obsession...

she might let go of my hand too.

No, Jahaan.

Without the blindfold
we're both equal, right?

No.

Shall I open the door?

Jahaan?

Yeah.

Open the door, I can't wait.

I've come this far.
A little longer can't hurt.

Now we're both equal.

Surely there must be a place

Where we will meet again

I'll look at you to my heart's content

And see myself in your eyes again

Every moment I spent with you

Came to me like God himself

Saba.

You haven't slept yet?

I couldn't share this night
with the morning.

It's a beautiful song, Jahaan.

Thanks.

Is it for me?

For this moment.

The way people take photographs...

and relive moments by looking at them,
that's how this song works for me.

I love you.

I love you more.

I can't wait to see you.

By the way,

-tomorrow is Valentine's Day.
-Mm-hmm.

And the hotel has organized
a ballroom dance. We're going, okay?

Oh, no way!

But I've already entered our names.
You don't have an option now.

-Saba!
-Come on.

Imagine...

What a poetic ending
we'll have tomorrow night.

When I take off my blindfold
in the ballroom at midnight...

Full Cinderella vibes!

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!

Today on Valentine's Day, we're going
to test how well you know

your partner when you can't see them.

Because today we'll dance blindfolded.

So let's see, how well do your partner?

Just a little while longer.

I hope you're wearing blue.

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

Excuse me!

Jahaan, where are you?

-Jahaan?
-Sorry, who?

Sorry.

Jahaan?

Jahaan, stop kidding.
It's okay, you can come out now.

I know, I know you're joking,
but I'm waiting here!

Jahaan, please pick up...
Please pick up, please...

Jahaan, I'm getting angry!

Surely there must be a place

Where we will meet again

I'll look at you to my heart's content

And see myself in your eyes again

Saba, I'm really sorry.

By the time you hear this message,
I'll be gone.

I know you're really strong. But I'm not.

And you probably have
the courage to hear the truth...

But I didn't have the courage to say it.

This is goodbye, but just for now

This life...

I'll be yours in the next life

And every one that follows after

This is goodbye,

This is goodbye,

This is goodbye,

This is goodbye, this is goodbye

But just for now, this life...

After Jahaan left that night,
I looked for him everywhere.

But he was nowhere to be found.

Jahaan began to feel like a dream,
that broke the moment I opened my eyes.

I couldn't overcome the shock,

and failed the screen test.

Then Dad got me cast in Abhinav's play.

And after so many years, finally,

I found my Prince Charming.

It was good. Very good.

The landing could be better...

And, I think, the confidence.

The rest, you're good.

It's not good, I know.

Everyone can see.
You don't have to sugarcoat things.

Excuse me?

Are you doubting
your director's judgement?

Just wait.

I'm going to complain to your boyfriend.

Hey...

I heard you were arguing
with your director?

Just be careful, man.

He's a real jerk.

If he goes too far, let me know.

I'll give him one tight slap!

I'm just scared.

You know...

What if I mess up on stage again
like I did in Brussels?

Hmm. I'm scared too.

What if you get a standing
ovation like you did in Budapest?

What then? Mm-hmm.

Chill out.

Come.

Surely there must be a place

Where we will meet again

I'll look at you to my heart's content

And see myself in your eyes again

Every moment I spent with you

Came to me like God himself,
although for now

I must be parted from you

This is goodbye

But just for now, this life

I'll be yours in the next life

And every one that follows after

This is goodbye

But just for now, this life

I'll be yours

In the next life, and every one
that follows after

And a huge round of applause
for an amazing performance.

Saba? What's the matter?

Everything okay?

Yes, I...

I thought I saw somebody I know.

Who?

It was someone else. Um...

Where are the others?

Come, they're all here.

Thank you.

Excuse me, can I get three beers?

Thanks.

Where in Delhi are you from?

You can't see an Indian girl
without flirting?

Well, technically, I can't.

I'm blind.

I'm so sorry.

-South Delhi.
-Why say sorry?

Can't blind people be creeps?

What? Oh God! Fine.

Is your life so terrible
you need so many drinks?

They're not all for me.
I'm on an outing with my crew.

I'm producing a play.

Oh, a producer?

Yeah.

An artistic businesswoman,
a deadly combination

Come on!

Do you feed yourself with such talk
or do you actually have a job?

Well, I'm doing a fellowship
from the Royal College of Music...

-that just concluded today.
-Congratulations!

-Thank you.
-Tanya!

Coming!

Okay. I'll take your leave now.

If you have the time,
please come and watch the show.

I mean, come and hear it.

Okay.

-It was really nice meeting you.
-Yeah, same here.

By the way, myself Tanya!

And myself Kabir.

I'll remember your name.

So will I.

Cheers! Thanks.

Surely there must be a place

Where we will meet again

Will you tell me now, or
after we reach the hotel?

I... I saw him.

Yes, you mentioned something back there.
Who?

Jahaan.

Jahaan?

I mean, I...

I heard him at the club, but

by the time I got there he was gone.

Maybe, like us,
some work brought him here.

Honestly, sometimes I feel bad for him.

He doesn't know what he lost.

I know you're...

probably right, but...

Sometimes I really ask why he ghosted me.

It makes me doubt myself
at an existential level.

It's destiny, Saba.

There he ghosted you, and here I met you.

It's not easy.

It takes courage to move on,
and for that I'm proud of you.

I really am.

Where were you?

My hair grew gray watching the clock.

I was performing at Coppola's Bar.

Now that the fellowship is over,
so is the scholarship.

So a side hustle is necessary, right?

Side hustles are fine,
but when will you address the real issue?

We will not discuss the issue, Noor.
Please.

Oh! So you plan to spend your life
running away.

Not at all.

There's a few more local gigs lined up,

I'll do those until a permanent
solution turns up.

I just don't want to go back to India.

Do you feel like
that's going to fix things?

Things only need fixing if they're broken.

Some things are best cast off.

If you've cast it off,
why do you fear turning back to look?

Because I've come this far
with great difficulty, Noor.

I left my country, changed my identity.

Went from Jahaan to Kabir.

But I fear if we end up crossing paths,

what would I say?

Just tell her...

It's not necessary that
every fellow traveller you meet on a train

will get off at the same station.

One person's journey might begin
where another's ends.

Yeah.

What is this guy doing?

Are you sure he won't mess up in
the final show?

That's exactly what I'm afraid of.

Where am I supposed to find
a new musician at the last minute?

Let me try.

Why don't we just roll with it?

-Okay.
-From the top. Okay?

And a one, two...

By the way...

What?

When are you planning to do it?

After the final performance.

Oh my god! I'll go crazy with happiness.

I'm so happy for you!

If you do yoga regularly everyday,
you'll recover faster.

Fine. Ask your trainer to come
from tomorrow.

Okay, Uncle. I'll call you tomorrow
and get an update.

Okay, son. I'll start yoga tomorrow.

-Okay.
-Tell Saba I'll call her in the evening.

-All right, take care. Bye.
-Bye.

He never listens.

What?

I mean, I like how you put in effort.

You call my Dad everyday,

remember my friends' birthdays,

you even flatter my annoying
aunt from Bareilly.

Huh?

Who chats up distant relatives, man?

Hmm?

Thanks, I guess?

-If you're always so perfect,
-Hmm.

then how will we have fun?

-Hmm?
-Tell me about it.

-I need drama...
-Okay...

Conflict!

I love it!

-Okay my Miss Conflict.
-Hmm?

Let me do one thing.

I'll have a big
sizzling

Affair!

Yes!

Right?

-That's what I'm talking about!
-What's wrong with you, man?

-Okay...
-Hmm?

You know the secret ingredient
of a strong relationship?

Trust?

Jealousy.

-I see...
-Be jealous of my male friends!

Say, "Saba, I don't like the way you do
certain things." Hmm?

-Saba...
-Hmm?

I really don't like your...

White Sauce Pasta, man!

I'm gonna slap you, okay?

Abhinav, stop. Come here right now!

Abhinav?

-This is Kabir.
-Hi.

-Hi Kabir. Abhinav.
-Hi, hi.

I've heard a lot about you.

Same here, same here.
So good to meet you.

I hope Tanya has shared the
music sheets with you?

Yeah, they're with me.

Tanya told me all about the play,
I'm really excited.

As am I. Very excited.
Please, welcome. Come, come.

All right, get up. Back to formation.

Come on, let's go.

-Uh, Kabir?
-Yes?

-Ready?
-Yeah.

-Shall we start?
-Yeah, sure.

Come on, let's try.

On my count.

Three...

Two...

One...

Sound!

What's wrong?

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

10-minute break, please.

I'm okay.

Uh, Kabir? Come up,
I'll introduce you to everyone.

Hi, guys! Hi.

-Hi, Hi.
-Kabir. Sharon.

Hi. Kabir.

-This is Ram.
-Hi.

And this is the female lead of our
play and the love of my life... Saba.

Hi... Nice to meet you.

This way.

Jahaan!

Kabir?

Yes?

Where did you learn
that melody you were playing?

-Why?
-It seemed familiar.

Oh!

I actually heard it on the internet.

Do you know Jahaan?

-Jahaan?
-Jahaan!

Who wrote that song,
whose voice sounds just like yours...

Come on, aren't you Jahaan?

Me?

No.

Lies.

I just met you five minutes ago,
why would I lie to you?

I'm... Saba!

We met on the train,
don't you remember? Mussoorie...

Saba, I'm sure you're confused.

Jahaan, please...
Why are you pretending...

Saba, my name is Kabir.

I've worked very hard to earn that name.

I'm sorry, but wherever your Jahaan is,
he's not here.

Take care.

Hi.

Thank you, thank you.

Thank you.

-Hi, Aunty!
-Hi!

-I'm Abhinav. Nice to meet you.
-Same here.

Kabir mentioned you.
Are you from Lucknow?

Absolutely.

My grandparents were from Lucknow too.

Wonderful.
Nice to meet someone from back home.

I'd love to talk to you about it.

Come over in the evening,
I'll serve up biryani.

Oh no, no.
Why take the trouble, forget it.

I'll only be troubled
if you don't come over.

Bring the rest of your friends too. Okay?

You all must be tired of the foreign food.

Yes, we are, quite a bit.

All right, take care. I'll see you.

Bye, bye.

-See you, Kabir.
-See you.

You plan to just stand there, or help too?

Why did you have to invite them?
You could've at least asked.

It's not like the name 'Saba' was written
on her forehead.

You should have mentioned it then.

If only you would let me talk!

You just spot desis
and fire up your kitchen.

-Shut up.
-Kabir? Noor Aunty?

-Hello!
-Hi!

-We're here... How are you?
-Come, come!

Perfectly fine.

You have such a lovely place.
Just like you.

Hi.

-Hi.
-Kabir! How are you?

Good, good.

-Hey, Kabir!
-Hi!

-Hi.
-Hello, hello...

-This is for you.
-Oh, thank you so much.

You've arranged such a feast!

Come, let me help you out.

Sure.

-This looks nice.
-It does, right?

-Yeah!
-Come.

-This looks nice!
-Oh, wow!

Hi.

Hi!

Please come.

Please.

-So good! Let's start.
-Yes!

-Kabir.
-Yeah?

How long have you been here?

Uh... About three years.

Where were you three years ago?

Uh, Delhi.

So you must travel to India frequently?

Hardly.

I never had the chance.

Why?

Uh...

-Because, uh...
-I never let him leave!

Every time he wants to go home,
I make my biryani.

He stays back.

And that is true.

Now I, too, will have to apply for
citizenship.

How do I go back now?
This is so good!

-Bye, Kabir.
-Bye.

-See you.
-Bye.

-Bye!
-Bye!

What's the matter?

She fully suspects that I'm Jahaan.

She spent the whole evening
staring at you.

Everybody noticed.

I think Abhinav did, too.

If you're doing this play,
then you should tell her the truth.

What good will that do?

I can't undo what happened
all those years ago.

Leaving her and going away was your wish.

And meeting her again
after all these years is God's wish.

You're the one who wounded her.

You need to be the one to heal her too.

Meeting you

Feels like liberation once again

I was once before

Now I'm orphaned once again

Could years of yearning be finally met

I begin to wonder

To live a lie, and be with you again

I begin to wonder

What do I do? what do I do?

What do I do?

Get back on the road

Or come back home

What do I do?

Saba!

Did you learn how to cook,
or do you still cut your fingers?

You're such a good actor.

In Mussoorie it felt like you're just
overacting with a blindfold

You sound very different. Mature.

It felt good to meet you
after so many years.

Abhinav said you got
a standing ovation in Budapest.

Really cool, man.

Congratulations on that.

And I'm so happy for you, that--

Through sand

I dragged them, but

My hands still retain your imprint

For years

I have lived in night

You arrived like the light

I know it's probably wrong

But, oh

Whenever I've been in another's arms

It was you my heart would think of

To cross a line, you and me

and disappear

What do I do?

What do I do?

What do I do?

Get back on the road

Or come back home

What do I do?

Good morning, love.

Saba, are you crying?

What's wrong?

Did anybody say something to you?

Hmm?

Then what happened?

Is it something I did?

Saba? Why are you crying?

Why are you crying like that?

It's all right.

Hey, alright now.

I need to tell you something, Abhinav.

Hmm.

Tell me.

Kabir is Jahaan.

I...

I suspected it from day one,
but yesterday he admitted it.

Then?

What did you tell him?

Nothing, I said nothing, I just...

I just...

I just... I just slapped him and then I...

and then I left.

You slapped him...

Good.

Do one thing.

I think you should talk to him.

See...

I know what he did was absolutely wrong.

And I promise you he knows,

or he wouldn't let himself be slapped
and quietly walk away.

And I hate him right now.

I despise that guy.

But from all my conversations with him...

I think he's... he's a decent guy.

I'm not...

I'm not sure, Abhinav...

I don't know.

Saba, then, I can't have you go through
the trauma all over again, man.

Then I'll have to fire him.

Yes, but... wouldn't you feel awkward?

Our...

our relationship is not so fragile
that I'd let some blind-

Specially abled.

Specially abled.

Sorry.

Avoidance won't solve the problem.
You have to face it.

If slapping him had given you closure,

you wouldn't be crying
in the morning like this.

All morning.

Saba?

Hmm.

Thank you.

For?

Um... For telling me the truth.

You could have kept it hidden
if you wanted.

It's... good to finally see you.

From how I imagined you, though...

You're quite different.

I hope the good kind of different.

Don't push it.

You're okay.

Good thing you didn't meet me any earlier.

Yes... Now that I've met you,

only Shaukilal remains.

I've never met such a cartoon in my life.

Shushh

Shush.

When do you get free?

I wanted to talk to you.

Uh... What about?

Uh, nothing, just... Catch up.

Oh.

Fine. I'll let you know.

I'll get going, then.

How will you get home?

Uh...

Noor Aunty usually picks me up.

But I guess she must be
stuck somewhere due to the weather.

You?

I'll book a cab.

-Cab?
-Yeah.

I don't think
you'll find one in this weather.

But...

Have you ever ridden a cycle
in the snow?

No, man. I'm not sure,
it's been ages since I rode a cycle.

I rode one a long time ago, too.

If you're up for it, I'll push the pedals,
you'll just have to steer.

Try it.

This time you can be my eyes.

Okay, uh... Okay.

Man!

I don't know about you,
but I'm really enjoying this.

Every time I'm with you, there's bound to
be some experiment or the other.

That's why they call it
living on the edge!

Don't tell me you're not having fun.

You know what? I am having fun.

But pedal slowly now,
there's people ahead.

So blow the horn, madam!

Jahaan, please, people can see us.

What's it to me, I can't see!

Move aside!

Move everybody!

I really had fun. Thanks for the lift.

Oh, you're welcome.

So how do you like this city?

Honestly, we haven't explored much.

I mean, we're always busy with rehearsals.

Then you're missing out on a lot.

This is a very romantic city.

You should make plans with Abhinav
someday and go out.

Yes...

We decided we'll go after the play.

When did you learn such patience?

You couldn't sit still for a minute.

You went off to view the sunset
with a blindfold, remember?

Oh, whatever! How?

You really are crazy!
Do you know?

-Hi, Kabir.
-Oh, hi!

Hi!

I'll be off, then.

-I'll see you guys.
-Yeah.

Come.

And?

And...

I tried, but... It got awkward.

Figures.

The deeper the wound,
the more bitter the medicine.

I wish I could help you.

But look, Saba,

I can stand by your side
but not in your stead.

You have to do this yourself.

-Hmm?
-Yeah.

Good job, guys! Well done!

See you guys. Bye.

-Hi.
-Hi.

Uh, remember I said I need to talk to you?

Sure, go ahead.

Not here. Are you free this evening?

Yeah.

Okay. Let's meet at seven.

-Cool. See you then.
-Cool.

-Hi, Kabir.
-Oh, hi!

-You're here.
-Yes.

And you can call me Jahaan.

Depends.

On how the conversation ends.

Okay.

No, thanks. It's too cold.

Shall we go?

Yes. Let's go.

Let's sit here.

What would you like to drink?

-Just a glass of red wine.
-Okay.

Hi. Can I have a red wine
and vodka, please?

Sure, sir.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Here.

Thank you.

Cheers!

I'll look at you to my heart's content

And see myself in your eyes

Go ahead, ask your question.

How long have you been specially abled?

I don't like that word.

You can say I'm blind.

If you go up to a beggar
and call him 'specially rich'

I'm sure he wouldn't like it.

And like you said,

the blind don't want pity,
they want dignity. Right?

Sorry. My bad.

Since when can you not see?

Remember that accident with my parents?

Yes.

That's when I lost my sight.

Then why did you lie to me
that you could see?

Correction.

I merely concealed the truth from you...

That I can't see.

And there's a... difference.

Oh!

But why?

I mean, there was no particular reason.

But, for the first time in my life,
someone was speaking to me as an equal,

Hmm.

So I also just kept lying.

Sorry...

Sorry...

Kept what?

I'm sorry, I just kept lying!

Jahaan, what's happened to the music?

What happened?

It's fine. Isn't it?

Jahaan, something doesn't feel right.

What was in that drink?

Didn't you say you wanted red wine?

What?

Excuse me!

Saba?

Excuse me? Excuse me?

What did you mix in the drink?

Why do you want to know?

Just enjoy your trip!

Abhinav?

Now ask Jahaan, why did he leave you?

Abh--

Jahaan?

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

Saba, you're so beautiful!

Jahaan, our drinks were spiked.
We should get out of here!

No, let's dance!

The hotel has arranged
a ballroom dance tonight.

And at midnight you'll be able to see me.

Finally!

How do I look in blue?

Amazing.

Don't leave me and go this time.

Jahaan?

Jahaan!

Saba?

Saba?

Saba!

Saba, wake up! What?

Where are you?

-I hate you!
-Why?

Because I had something serious
to talk about, and now I'm laughing!

It's not your laugh
but your slap that scares me, sir!

Oh, how I missed you, Saba!

Why did you ever leave, Jahaan!

Was I not good enough?

No, no! It was I who was lacking, not you!

So then leaving should have been
my decision, right? Not yours!

I cried day and night thinking over this.

That maybe I was ugly, or
I couldn't speak well, or, I don't know,

I was just an object?

That you used and threw away?

I mean, you left me broken, Jahaan!

I went everywhere wearing a mask.

So that people wouldn't see my true self
or they'd leave too.

Then seeing me would not have made
you happy, Saba.

That was your fear... Not my decision!

But wasn't my fear correct?

You couldn't stand being sightless
for two weeks,

how would you have lived with it
all your life?

Maybe I would've felt a little bad...

But then I'd accept my fate
and adjust, Jahaan.

Exactly!

I don't want to be someone's
adjustment, Saba...

I want to be someone's choice!

You shouldn't have left, Jahaan.

And once you were gone,
you should never have come back.

Okay.

Jahaan?

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

I didn't want to come back either.

It took all my strength to turn away
from the memories of you.

But turning away was your decision
in the first place!

I got scared, Saba!

My blindness had closed countless doors in
my life already.

I didn't have the strength to
let my heart get broken again.

So I packed all my remaining self-respect
into a bag that night and I left.

I loved you, Jahaan, so much!

And it wouldn't have mattered to me
that you can't see.

That's very easy to say, Saba...

But someday love's blindfold
would fall from your eyes,

your brain would switch off
and you'd vanish too.

And you've moved on, you've got Abhinav

to wipe your tears away.

What about me?

I've suppressed my own sorrows
for twenty years.

Even today, my first choice is to lie
and say I'm okay.

But there's no one to ask.

I would have asked.
But you turned out a quitter!

-I had my reasons, Saba!
-Well, you had better reasons to stay!

-I wanted to!
-Then you should have!

I'm standing before you now.

But you could leave again.

Back then I didn't know if
you'd accept me.

So how are you sure this time?

Because I know that
you still love me, Saba.

I hate you. Why did you leave me?
For what? Why?

Why...

Saba?

What? Sorry for what?

I'm sorry, I didn't know
what I was doing,

-I'm really sorry.
-What happened?

We went out, and we were drinking, and...

and then... we kissed.

Soon as we sobered down, she left.

Why don't you tell her? That you love her?

She's happy with Abhinav.

Let Saba decide that.
You just tell her the truth.

What do I say?

That you went from Jahaan to Kabir because
you believed you were unworthy of her.

And now you want to go back to
being Jahaan, for her.

-Can I ask you something?
-Go ahead.

How does she look?

Very beautiful.

Slim, elegant, and charmingly innocent.

Then tell me,
why would she love a blind man?

Who can't even praise her beauty?
Who will she dress up for?

For herself!

And anyway,
what's your praise meant to do for her?

She'd feel good.

It would make her heart beat faster.

Her heart shouldn't beat faster by
looking at herself...

But by looking at you.

Tanya calling.

Hi, Tanya.

Abhinav...

Please come, everyone's waiting.

I thought hard about it.

Within me...

This question would always come up,
why do I continue living my life with you?

But...

I don't know how,
each time I convinced myself that...

I still love you a lot.

Look, I don't know.

Who was at fault that night.

Just tell me this much...

Did you, for even a single moment, feel

that you still love him?

No!

Abhinav, I love only you.

Then why am I not able to believe that?

Why does that have such a hollow
ring to it?

Hey, look who's here...

Kabir!

-Hi.
-Hi!

Welcome.

-Thank you.
-Let me just help you. This way.

Okay.

Hi, hi guys.

Hi, hi.

Hi, Kabir.

Hi, Abhinav.

Thank you so much.

Okay.

I'm good.

I love you.

So...

What will you drink?

Actually, nothing. Thanks.

Hmm, don't be afraid.

We won't spike your drink.

Uh, so, Kabir. What's next?
What are your plans after this play?

There's this British label
that produces Indian music.

I've sent them some of my songs.
So let's see.

What name do you compose songs under?

Kabir or Jahaan?

Meaning?

-You don't know?
-What?

He's that guy.

Who?

Who ghosted Saba
and ran away from Mussoorie.

What?

Why are you stressing over it?

Abhinav, please, stop.

It was just a fling, right?

We're all adults here.

We've all done some immature crap.

I mean, not like you guys
were in love or anything.

Right, Kabir?

Saba, let's dance.

There's even a piano.

And we have Kabir here.

Hmm?

Come.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Kabir.

Play something...

Play something magical.

Hmm?

Saba?

Come.

Abhinav, please.

Come, come.

Saba?

Jahaan?

What are you doing here?

I just came to say, I'm leaving for good.

But why?

That's a question
I never have an answer to, Saba.

Why did I leave that night?

Why did your play come to this city?

Why did we meet again, and

why am I back
at the same crossroads in life?

No clue.

I'm leaving this city for good, Saba.
I can't live here anymore.

Now its every bylane
will remind me of you.

And I left without telling last time,
so...

I always wondered,

had I told you, would you have stopped me?

That's why, this time,

I won't carry that burden alone.

Leaving is my decision...

Stopping me, or not, must be yours.

You're too late, Jahaan.

I don't have the strength left in me
to do this to Abhinav.

And I don't have the strength, Saba,
to see you with someone else.

That's why I must leave.

Look after yourself.

Please.

Saba, I love you very much.

I want to laugh with you,

cry with you, grow old with you.

No matter what...

Nothing can lessen my love for you.

You know, I must have imagined this moment
a thousand times.

In front of the whole world,

to proclaim my love for you.

Then I realized, you're my whole world.

So why wait?

Hmm?

Look after yourself.

Aunty! Aunty, where's Jahaan?

-He's gone.
-Where?

He has a train in 10 minutes, to UK.

Aunty, I've got to meet him.
I've got to stop him!

Stop him for what?

To tell him he's not my adjustment.

I want to make him my choice.

Honestly, I came here to get
a yes from you.

Because I was so sure you'd say yes.

But for some reason
I now think it's better if you say no.

I never thought this little ring
would feel like a trap to you.

Saba, I'd be miserable without you.

But you know what would make me
more miserable?

That you should be with me
and remain unhappy.

That's unacceptable to me.

Therefore...

Go be with Jahaan.

That's your destiny.

Go.

Hurry! Station, please!

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

Jahaan!

Surely there must be a place

Where we will meet again

I'll look at you to my heart's content

Saba!

And see myself in your eyes again

Jahaan!

Saba!

All my logic said that
I should be with Abhinav...

Then?

Then...

That old tug of war
between heart and mind.

The mind said to choose
what the world says.

The heart said to choose
where my world lives.

In Mussoorie,

my mind held this image of you.

But this image had no face, it had a soul.

Now, whether this soul should dwell
within someone

who cannot see, or someone

who's exceedingly beautiful,

it makes no difference to me.

Because I've loved that soul.

Literally, blind love.

You told me I couldn't bear
20 days of darkness.

But then I thought about it,

and I realized...

Those 20 days were probably
the brightest days of my life.

And Jahaan, if that's darkness...

Then I want to spend my whole life
in darkness.

Jahaan Bakshi...

Will you spend...

the rest of your life

eating ice cream in the cold with me?

Answer quickly, I'm freezing!

Yes!

Are you crying?

I guess?

Didn't I tell you, that this passenger
would change my life?

Saba was the first person who saw me, not
through her eyes but through her mind.

Maybe that's why she could remain blind to
what the world wanted her to see.

People say, love is blind.

I think they're right.

By the fault in our eyes

By the fault in our eyes

You and I were led this way

By the fault in our eyes

Crazy in love with you

How lonely had I become

Without you, Without you

I was alive, and yet

I could not breathe life�s breath

Without you, hmm, without you

Destiny guided us

The path to paradise

We�ll write the story of our desire

By the fault in our eyes

By the fault in our eyes

A story of love and pain

By the fault in our eyes

By the fault in our eyes

By the fault in our eyes
