Original subtitles

Standard four-by-four groove. - Sure... entry chord, D major?

Rob doesn't know a thing about keyboards. He begins every song in D major

Adi, have you written any lyrics?

Yeah

You know, there are so many things in life we hardly think of...

simple things

Goes like this

Why is the sky blue?

Why is water so wet?

Why is the earth round?

And so on and so forth. - Nice, very nice

Rob, let's start it with a good riff. - Cool

Then I'll introduce texture ... seriously electronic

How's that, KD?

Why not

Joe starts with the riff, then keyboards...

I'll kick in with the drums and then Aditya, you can take over

KD... please! No one takes over in this band

That's right, brothers

That's why we're called Magik

Yeah you said it, Joe

Let's try this

One... two... three... four

Why is the sky blue?

Why is water wet?

Why is the earth round?

What makes silk soft?

What makes flre hot?

Why doesn't two and two make flve?

Why are trees vanishing?

Why do we have three seasons?

Why don't we have two moons?

Why is there war?

Why flows the red?

And borders everywhere?

Ever wondered...

have you?

Ever wondered...

what's this all about?

Ever wondered...?

If you haven't, then do it now

Why do all rivers flow?

What's light, d'you know?

What makes snow fall?

Why do friends keep falling out?

Why do stars fall?

Why is there lightning in clouds?

Ever wondered...

have you?

Ever wondered...

what's this all about?

Ever wondered...?

If you haven't, then do it now

Silence can't be heard

And the wind can't be seen

Ever wondered...

have you ever?

Why skies are blue?

Why is water wet?

Why is the earth round?

What makes silk soft?

What makes flre hot?

Why don't two and two make flve?

Why are trees vanishing?

Why are there only three seasons?

Why aren't there two moons?

Why is there war?

Why flows the red?

Why are borders everywhere?

Ever wondered...

have you?

Ever wondered...

what's this all about?

Ever wondered...?

If you haven't, then do it now

Thanks, no ice

Cheers, buddy

Listen to this one

Ason tells his father,

"Papa, Mummy thinks you're an angel"

The father asks, "Really, Mummy said that?"

The son says, "She said, you've sprouted wings"

Come on, Andy. It's time for bed. You'll be late for school tomorrow

Hey champ, come on, wake up

Time to go to bed

Come on

Good job, Rob

Thanks

The flute you used in this song ... it's fantastic!

Really?

Absolutely original and damn good work

It'll drive people crazy. They'll go mad!

Thanks. I'm glad you like it

Anyway, can I go now, Anu-ji?

God bless you

Devika asked if we're going to join them in Alibaug for the weekend

I won't be able to make it. You should go

She has invited both of us. Please, come on Adi

It's been over a year since we went on holiday

I might go to Hong Kong in August

Come along

If you wish

Bye. - Bye

Good morning, sir

I can't believe you're here

I called you. - Listen, I'll call you, I will

Oh please, you never return my calls. - I will call you

It's for the book. I've a deadline. - I'll call you... bye

Come

Show me...

Who was that? - Met him in Goa at Singhi's party

He's totally wild

Followed me all the way to Bombay

In single-minded pursuit?

He's writing a book ... his travels in India

Who knows, he might write a chapter on me

That's creative types for you

Anyway, Aditya and you are coming to Alibaug, aren't you?

No... Aditya can't come

God! Is he married to you or his job?

Hey, did I say something wrong?

Are you okay?

I mean... you're neither interested in what I say, nor in what I design?

Are they so awful?

Sometimes when I see you... I feel jealous

You're living the life you want

An interior designer... independent

With writers chasing you all the way from Goa

Come on. You're saying this?

You are happily married, making a home

Remember, it was you who told me, "I'm happily married"

Yes, happily married and...

perhaps a mother soon

You're pregnant?

Congratulations! - Thanks

Aditya must be jumping with joy...

No... I haven't told him yet

I thought, before I shock him with it, I'd better confirm with a gynaec

What shock? Don't you two want a baby?

No, that's not it...

It's just that... only Aditya knows what he does or doesn't want

When I think of it, it's like living with a stranger who loves me,

who cares for me; but I'll never know what's in his heart and soul

You'll only find stock market quotes

I don't know Devika, maybe I'm just nervous about this baby

Anyway, I'll have to tell him, sooner or later...

maybe on his birthday. - Next week, isn't it?

I want to buy him a gift. Please help me

Of course

Hey champ! How was school? - Fine

Have you had lunch? - I've been waiting for you

You remember your promise ... the new tune

But I'll teach it to you, only when you play the earlier tune without mistakes

Done. - That's my boy

Come on, before Mummy goes...

Deliver the goods to Kadam's right now

And come back with the money, even if you have to wait all day

But get the money today. Got it? Now go

Leave the goods here. Come and take your money tomorrow

Madam, I need the money now

Why do you hassle me everyday? Didn't I tell you? Come tomorrow at eleven

Eleven o'clock? - Yes

For sure? - Yes

Andy, how was school today?

Like it is everyday

Funny. Sit down for lunch

Dear Lord, thank You for Your love and kindness today

You give us strength and nutrition as we sit in Your presence at this table

Bless our food, bless all those gathered here

And bless the ones in need. In the name of Jesus, Amen

The fisherwomen were here again. They really hound me

How much they complain!

What do I do? There's less fish, the rates are lower,

the wholesale rate is down. What profit?

Same old fish again...

everyday the same, same food

Sorry Nana, I can't do any better

Doing the accounts all day, listening to the fisherwomen...

Where's the time to cook?

I mean, just smell my hands, Joe

This goddamn fish smell never goes!

Did Lionel call you back about that show?

No

Why don't you call him?

I'll call him

Joe please, we need the money. There're endless bills to pay

But no one watches Lionel Uncle's shows. He doesn't even know how to tune a guitar

Just eat your food

Joe, it's a big wedding

Playing the guitar there won't demean you in any way

We Mascarenhas' have never done anything so cheap

Wonderful

Why haven't you sent the necklace set?

You were responsible for the delivery

Girish Bhai has called four times today. What do I say to him?

Kedar...?

Sorry, dad

Sorry? Do you think, saying sorry makes it okay?

You'll deliver it personally this evening. Understood?

Go

Devika, this is perfect

Oh that's lovely, I think he's going to like that

Give me Girish Bhai's package

I think it's the best of all these. - I agree

Excuse me

Can you inscribe "Aditya" on the back? And 22nd July

Excuse me...

Aditya, 22nd July?

Why? Can't it be done?

It's not that...

Actually, I had a friend, Aditya. His birthday is also on 22nd July

This Aditya...?

He's my husband

His full name?

Aditya Shroff

Oh my God!

Aditya Shroff... is he fair...

and lean? Has long hair

Short sighted but won't wear specs...

and writes wonderful poetry?

Poetry? You're definitely talking of some other Aditya

I'm sorry, I think I got carried away

It'll be ready by day after... right?

Thanks

Okay

Same name, same birthday...?

Too much of a coincidence. - You're right

Excuse me

What's your name?

I'll tell my husband

Killer Drummer. If he's the same Aditya, he'll know

Jignesh Bhai,

have you ever been unhappy about your investments with us?

It's a done deal, boss

We manage most of the foreign investments in the market

We're picking up huge stakes in the infrastructure sector

Yes... India is booming, sir

Sleep without a care. Your wealth is in safe hands

Sure

My best to your wife. God be with you

Mr Bajaj would like to meet you on the fourteenth floor

I'll be right there

Come in

Yes, sir...

Aditya... - Yes, sir?

How do you like this office?

It's... very nice, sir

It's yours

The management has decided to promote you

Thank you, sir

Oh no... don't thank me

It's all your hard work

So, congratulations. - Thank you, very much

I'll see you later

Oh and one more thing...

Enjoy the view

Why don't we celebrate your promotion and birthday together?

Let's throw a party on the 22nd

No, don't bother throwing a party

I'll just take my colleagues out to lunch tomorrow

Whenever you make any plans, it's with your colleagues

Is your social life incomplete without them?

Sakshi... that's life

By the way, a strange thing happened today

Do you know any Killer Drummer?

Aditya, are you listening?

Do you know a guy called Killer Drummer?

No

Killer Drummer... strange name, isn't it?

Where did you meet him?

At a jewellery store

Devika needed to buy something and we were talking about you

...and he said he knew an Aditya Shroff who wrote poetry

Interesting

And as we spoke, I discovered that the other Aditya Shroff's birthday...

is also on 22nd July

Strange, isn't it?

Very strange

Sleep now

Good night

Good night

Sinbad the Sailor sailed away one day...

looking for his... na na na na... way

One minute...

It's not working, guys

Not quite right?

Shall we try something new, Rob?

Okay

Okay, take it from the top

KD, you start and I'll join you on the fourth bar

Ready... - Ready?

Shit

Sorry

Joe broke the glass

Debbie boxed his ears

We all laughed at how you got stuck

And just like that, Joe left the band

Packed my business cards? - Yeah

Namdeo

Namdeo

Where were you?

Get another bag

Adi, you go on

I'll send your suitcase to the office

Okay, thanks

Okay, get another bag from the loft

Wait... I'll come too

God knows what junk is up there

Take this box out, give it away

Wait... these too

What's that package up there? Bring it down

Put it here

Open it

Okay, I'll check it

I left some papers on the side table. Please put them away, they're important

Adi... - Yeah?

Have a safe flight

Bye

So, I was right!

Where is Aditya these days? What's he doing now?

You should have brought him along. - He's away in Delhi

I'm planning a surprise party at home for him on May 22nd

If you and the rest of your band can come, it'll be great

Areunion party? Wow! Of course!

We should've had a reunion a long time ago

But I had no idea that Aditya was in Bombay

And it's been ages since I've spoken to Rob and Joe

Anyway, did Aditya say anything about us?

No, I was hoping you'd tell me more

I found these. - Oh my God!

Oh God... that's Aditya?

It's impossible to recognise him

And this is you?

You're looking so wild

Everything's changed, my hairstyle most definitely

Wow

That's Joe. Our lead guitarist

Aditya always said, Joe's fingers made magic

Joe said the same about Aditya's voice

That's why our band was called Magik

Magic?

You know, when Aditya arrived in Bombay, he lived with Joe for three months

Rob, our backbone

He did all the programming and the bass sections

Sheer genius

Aditya, the poet

I'm sure you know this poet

I'll tell you how crazy he was

Suddenly, one day he says, "Let's go to Goa"

No packing, nothing. Just go

And we just set off

Aditya's dream, was that Magik would have a tour bus and we'd just head off

There'd be no turning back

And all of us believed it would turn out exactly like that

In our twenties, we think the world will dance to our tune

Sorry, I'm boring you with all this talk

No. You've told me so much. Thanks

I'll talk to Rob and Joe. I can't guarantee they'll come

But I'll definitely come. - Please try and bring them

I'll try my best

What was it 24123489 or 59?

It takes you so long to pick up the phone?

KD...? - Yes, Mr D-major

Holy shit! Is that really you?

Yes

Where are you? - When can you meet me?

Just tell me where. - Jazz by the bay. Nine thirty

Done. - Great, see you there

KD, turn down the volume

Are you mad?

Hello... hi

Really... okay

Okay... thanks a lot. Bye

Guys!

That was my friend from Channel V. I styled some of his shows

He called with some special news

You're really lucky

Shut up, KD

There's going to be a contest

The winning band gets to cut an album and make a music video

Let's go for it, guys

We'll need new equipment

Good cymbals for KD. Anew mike for you, Adi

You need a new distortion pedal

And for me, another tea

Uncle Khursheed, one more tea

In all, we'll need about fifty five thousand

The band's savings are twenty thousand

Maybe I can wangle five thousand from dad

That makes twenty five thousand. Which leaves...

Thirty thousand. Einstein!

I have some cash...

about three or four thousand... - Really?

I can give you that

I've got about the same

Adi, can't you ask your Dad?

No chance, man

He won't give it. I know

Punishing me for not doing an MBA

Dads...

There's a way out. Raghav Yedekar

Sounds like a goon...

He organizes shows. Musicfrom old films

Totally different from our music

The audience is different too

Old film music?

We'll need a sitar, harmonium, ten tablas! Guitars and keyboards won't do

Really Rob, I can't do it either

Hang on, Joe

Who says we can't play old songs on guitars and drums?

We'll choose our songs and do them in our style

With the Magik touch

Like breath is needed...

Like breath is needed for life

Yes, a sweetheart is needed,

for love

Like a flame is needed,

Like a flame is needed,

for light

Yes, a sweetheart is needed,

for love

This day comes, in the season of youth

When eyes meet eyes, even water catches flre

I'm going to take you high, my baby

Fly with me

Fly high

Marry me, Susie! - Someday

You're amazing!

So, Aditya doesn't know about the party?

That's what a surprise is all about

Let's see how he takes the surprise

I'm in. - Good

So what other news...?

Saw an ad on TV some time ago, the musicsounded like yours

Well...

You're really lucky, Rob

Still making musicafter all these years

Don't know how to do anything else, KD

And you? Still drumming?

I don't remember the last time I touched drumsticks

But now you can afford the world's best drum kit

Yes, I can

And I don't even have to go to a Dandiya-dance - Dandiya?

Yeah! We bought equipment out of our performance at the Dandiya!

How can I tell you...

what my heart says

You'd think, maybe I'm insane

How can I tell you what my heart says

You'd think, maybe I'm insane

I want to get to the top of the TVtower

Scream out loud and say...

Rock On! It's the sign of the times

Rock On! Every moment beckons

Rock On! What are you waiting for

Rock On! You only live once

My heart tells me...

to scream out loud

Everyone...

should open their windows

Then I'll sing them my spirited songs

Let them join in and raise the cry

Come on, baby!

Come on Joe, come on

Just live your life...

the way you always wanted to

All I've got to say is...

make every single one of your dreams come true!

Welcome to Channel V's Launchpad

From Bangalore, this is Chakravyuh

The world's full of snakes

They bite everyone

Sitting upon their coils

Hood outstretched

Snakes hiss

Toxic

Blacks, blues, yellows

Eyes of stone...

and sharp fangs

The world is a jungle of snakes

There's a hood in every face

Sitting upon their coils,

hood outstretched,

hissing, waiting to strike

Toxic!

Blacks, blues, yellows

Eyes of stone...

and sharp fangs

All right! Let's hear it for Chakravyuh

Now, our next band, from right here in Bombay

Fans say, there's magicin their music

Bombay, are you ready for them?

That's more like it

Let's welcome on stage, Magik

Hello, everyone

Hello, everyone!

Are you having a good time?

I said, are you having a good time?

All right!

I need your help for the next song

Will you sing with me?

Will you join me?

All right then, everyone

Let me see more hands up in the air

Put your hands together

Everybody, sing with me

Come on

Louder

Way to go

Now... sing when I raise my hand

One of my laundry bills... An unflnished novel...

Agirl's phone number... A useful piece of paper...

In my deck, a king of hearts...

And one of my silver rings...

When I look at what I lost this last week

Somedays I laughed at myself and somedays I cried

One of my laundry bills

An unflnished novel

Agirl's phone number

A useful piece of paper

In my deck, a king of hearts

And one of my silver rings

When I look at what I lost this last week

Somedays I laughed at myself

Somedays I cried

I got a gift, a watch...

that I loved so much

Apacket of Mary Jane

My old denim jacket

Two passes for a cricket match

My brand new sunglasses

When I look at what I lost this last week

Somedays I laughed at myself and somedays I cried

How...

do I forget?

On day seven,

someone introduced you to me at a party

What...

was in the moment...

when I saw you for the flrst time

When we flrst met...

I felt what love was

I lost my senses...

and my heart too

Somedays I laughed at myself and somedays I cried

That was everything I lost this last week

Put your hands together

One of my laundry bills

An unflnished novel

Agirl's phone number

A useful piece of paper

One of my laundry bills

An unflnished novel

Agirl's phone number

A useful piece of paper

When I met you flrst

I felt...

what love was

I lost my senses and my heart too

Somedays I laughed at myself and somedays I cried

Now's the time to find out who the winner of the contest is

The winners get an album contract. And at least one music video

I'm all nerves

Can you tell...

which lucky band's name is in this envelope?

Magik

They're screaming for us!

All right, it's time to find out

And the winner is...

Magik

All right!

Watch it, buddy

Oops

Did I hurt you?

Oops! Did I hurt you?

Joe... Joe...

get off him

Joe! What are you doing?

Calm down

Just back off. Stop it

Picture this...

Someone insults Aditya and Joe breaks out in a rash

And now...

How things change, man

Where's Joe these days?

Ran into him some months ago, at Purple Haze Studio

He has so much talent, but business sense... zero

Joe... when will he learn it's important to market oneself?

Let's go meet him

It'll be great if you invite him to Aditya's party

No, don't try to use me to do this

Come on Rob, you always knew how to handle them

I mean, that was why we tolerated you in the band

Hello

Anybody in?

Oh my God... KD? - Wow... Joe!

Good to see you man

How are you?

Good

Rob...

Come, sit

How're you doing?

All okay?

Getting along

I teach guitar to kids in the neighbourhood

And once in a while, I perform live at a club

It's all good, man

Good?

You're still performing on stage! That's fantastic, Joe

It's nothing like those concerts

Here, people hang around, party, talk, drink

What I'm playing makes no difference to them

I know exactly what you mean

I played in a club once

I got so angry, felt like hurling my keyboard at the crowd

You should have

That way your keyboard would've been of some use

KD...

Did you know Aditya is also here in Bombay

Really...?

No... how would I know?

His wife came to my store

And...

She has invited us home

For Aditya's birthday party

22nd...?

Look who's here

Debbie... oh wow!

Good to see you

Who's this? - Andrew

Hi, Uncle Rob

Hi, Andrew! I'm KD

Magik's drummer?

How old is he?

He'll turn eight this year

Unbelievable!

Debbie, I'll hand it to you!

You don't look like the mother of an eight year old

Thank you

But in that outfit, you look like a typical businessman

Even Rob looks different in his close crop, doesn't he?

Long hair is no longer in fashion

You're saying this?

Someone who'd brush his hair before brushing his teeth!

Why don't you just admit it, you're losing your hair

Show me how you'd flick the sticks in the air and catch them

Hey, who told you?

Who else?

At bedtime, Andy listens to only one story. Magik's

Debbie, we're planning a reunion. Next week. At Aditya's

Why don't you join us and bring Andrew along

Reunion?

So the two of you are here with a message from Aditya, the star?

It's not like that, Debbie

Please, KD

All these years you weren't even in touch. Why now?

Sorry about that, guys

Debbie is really stressed out because of work

She doesn't mean it, you know that

It's okay

Hey Andrew...

next time, I'll show you the magicof drumsticks

Promise

I'll call you guys

Say bye, Andy

Bye

Good to see you, Joe. - Same here, man

It'll be good if you guys come

Think about it. Okay?

Yeah, man

I couldn't believe these guys, Joe

They come around after years, that too with an invite from Aditya

If it was so important, couldn't he have phoned himself?

It's a surprise party, Debbie. His wife is organizing it

Oh... how sweet! Joe, please...

Keep away from them

Being with them was always bad for you

Last time, you got hurt

God knows what they want now!

Nobody hurt me

I was the one who quit

You're defending them now?

So they call and you go, tail wagging?

Is that right?

No, Debbie

I'll wear a collar and stay right by you

What?

What did you say?

Nothing

You think that I...?

Fine! Sorry

Do whatever you want

Go to hell

Listen, you better tell the musiccompany that I'm styling Magik's video

Or you'll end up wearing these shorts and a T-shirt

What's wrong with my shorts?

Showing my legs only adds to the sex appeal of the video

This is it, Joe

This is our big break

Our lottery ticket to the future

Now we have to get the right numbers

Love you, baby

When you're around...

I feel like...

I've found every joy

When you're gone...

it feels like...

every joy has faded

You're the one...

my life needs

Damn Joe!

You're a poet and we didn't even know it

It's a great tune

He's right, Joe

We need another song for the album and I think we've found it

Yes, Adi?

I want to dedicate it to Debbie

Yeah... yeah

It'll be your wedding anthem

When it's played in church, all will rise

Good one, Joe. - Thanks, Rob

Tell me seriously, what do you think of the song?

It's fantastic, Joe

Fantastic

Really?

And when you sing it in your style, it'll be even better

I just know it, man

Thanks, brother

Adi...

when we meet the musiccompany guys,

make sure you tell them about Debbie styling our music video

You could tell them yourself

Yeah, but she's my girlfriend and...

it'll be a little odd

You'll tell them, won't you?

Of course, I will

You're the best, buddy

It's going to rock!

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday, dear Aditya,

happy birthday to you

Happy birthday, Aditya

Here's your gift

Thanks

Surprised? - Yes... very

There's another surprise for you

Hello

Surprise!

Happy birthday, Aditya

Good to see you. - Happy birthday, Aditya

We're not ghosts

Why don't you guys get some drinks?

I'll join you

Just... take care of them

Thanks for coming. I'm glad you came

Aditya is happy too, of course

He's forever busy with work

I hope you're fine?

Yes, we're good

Your drink...? - I'm fine, thank you

Okay... just excuse me

Oh hi! How are you?

Great. How are you? - Well, thank you

I hope you're enjoying yourself. - Thank you very much. Lovely

I hope you're enjoying yourself. - Of course

If you don't mind, could I take him away for a minute?

No!

Absolutely... of course, you can. - I'll be right back

Your friends are getting bored

What do I do? We have other guests as well

What?

All right, I'm going

Hi

When did you pick up this habit?

Well...

Cigarettes are rotten for your voice

What does my voice have to do with investment banking?

Remember losing your voice before a show once, in college...

and Debbie forcing you to drink that re-mixed herbal tonic

I'll never forget your face

Whatever it was, it was effective

She also gave you some medicine to improve memory, didn't she?

Didn't help, did it?

What do you mean?

I still remember, she was the one

Hi... - Hello

Is everything okay?

Yes

Joe didn't come? - Must be on his way...

Why don't you call him and check where he is?

Oh! That's mom! I'll just be back

Obviously, Sakshi doesn't know much about Magik

Never felt the need to tell her

Really, man...

sometimes, it feels as if it all happened in another lifetime...

and sometimes as if, just yesterday

Why don't we get together again at our old rehearsal pad?

Sounds like a great idea

Tomorrow's Sunday. Let's do it

But first, we'll meet at Army Cafe

What do you say, Aditya?

Come off it

Come on, Aditya

One o'clock?

You guys are crazy

Come on. Rob, you, me... even Joe wll turn up

The four of us, together again

Making music, man

Why do we need four?

Even two or three can jam together

But it won't be Magik

I wish your friend Joe had come

How did you like meeting your friends?

Sakshi, you shouldn't have invited them

Why?

Why did you tell me that you didn't know them?

Because I don't know them anymore

We have drifted apart

You saw it too... how uncomfortable they were

They were our guests

And guests feel as comfortable as we make them

I felt you were the uncomfortable one

Why are you getting involved in these things?

Just let it be

Look...

Isn't that you?

I thought that if you met your friends again, you'd feel good

Maybe, it would bring back this smile

Why are you spying?

Spying?

I want to see you happy

By going through my things?

Stop it! What's come over you?

Look at yourself! What you were, what you've become?

In ten years, people change

I'm not the Aditya you see in these pictures

You're right... the man in these pictures is happy

I'm happy even today

What is wrong with you?

If you're happy, then why don't I feel it?

Why does it feel like you're living a mechanical life?

Now you have a problem with my life?

Not I. You have a problem with your life

That's why you keep me at a distance

Let me in, Aditya

Why do you feel so bad about me seeing these pictures?

I think you're over-reacting

These pictures mean nothing

Then why have you kept them so carefully?

You could have thrown them away or burnt them

Is that it?

Destroy them. Makes no difference to me

I cut these ties a long time ago

Maybe you lost a lot when you cut these ties?

Have you thought of that? - What have I lost?

Only you know that

If something's disturbing you...

Damn it, Sakshi! Think what you want

Ten years ago, I chose this life

Yes, I made some compromises... but who doesn't?

Am I one of the compromises in your life?

Is our marriage also a compromise?

That's not what I meant... - That's exactly what it is, Aditya

Don't you see, you're angry with yourself

And your anger is hurting our relationship

I want to be a part of your life

But how is it possible when you're living only half a life!

I see

And to make my life complete, you invited them here?

I made a mistake

I thought you'd be happy to meet your friends

And then I was going to tell you that you're going to be a father

What?

Yes Aditya. But what a pity...

Now I don't even know, if hearing this makes you happy or not

Sakshi...

Sakshi...?

"I'm going to Mum's house. "

"I need time to think. "

Hello, Nana

I knew I'd find you here

Why didn't you come yesterday?

You know why

No Joe, I don't know

Look, whatever happened ten years ago affected all our lives

The difference is, KD and I accepted it

But you couldn't

And guess what, nor has Aditya

Success, failure... these things come and go

We got together to fulfill our dream, our passion to create music

But you forgot that

Being successful was most important for you

Isn't success important?

Don't you see that your success lay in Magik's success?

Lmagine, where we'd all be today if all that hadn't happened

What do you want from me?

What can I do now?

We're meeting today. One o'clock, at Uncle Khursheed's cafe

Life doesn't give everyone a second chance

One o'clock. See you there

Clean up table number two. - All right

Uncle Khursheed...

Recognise me?

No

One tea, please

Dilip, one tea

Thank you

Did Adi have to be late today of all days?

There

Sorry I'm late, guys

Come on... only two minutes left

Breathe, man

Don't forget to tell them about Debbie

Don't forget man, it's really important

I won't forget, Joe

Please! Don't make me more nervous. Come on

Okay

So how do you feel?

We're confident. Just show us the way to the recording studio

We won't let you down

Look kids... just recording the music doesn't make it a hit

Musicmust cater to publictaste

But... you liked our music, didn't you?

It's good...

But could be better... much, much, much better

Apopular number

I'll get it from you, of course

October to January is the wedding season, right?

Let's take a hit wedding song...

and do a rock remix

But...

a wedding remix in a rock album...?

Why... is it against the law to do that?

Everything goes

The main thing is, the album should be a hit

We'll take the slow song out... it won't work

You know, the one which goes, "If you're there, I'm here or not here... "

It's the only soft, romantic ballad that gives our album some depth

Nowadays this doesn't sell, kid

Tempo... give me tempo

Today's youth want songs with tempo, bubbly stuff

If you agree with what I'm saying...

here's the contract

You see boys...

in life, one needs to make some compromises

Seven out of eight songs are of your choice

And one...

that I want

Besides, there's no dearth of talent in the market

Well done. Congratulations

Another thing. We have a friend, Debbie. She does costumes and styling

We were hoping, you could use her for our music video

Relax! Now you're the responsibility of this company

Forget all these people

At least meet her once

You get to work in the recording studio and let us do our work

I feel terrible about Joe's song being rejected

It's not just about my song

We're a band

It's our debut album

To push a stupid remix into it... I think we're making a very big compromise

In that case, we shouldn't have signed

But now that we have, there's really no point in talking about it

He's right, Joe

If we hadn't done it, someone else would have

Sure

I'm so sorry about your song, Joe. - No. I'm sorry, Debbie

They won't let you do the styling

They say, they already have someone

But they haven't even seen her work!

Come on, guys

Seven out of eight songs selected. It's not that bad

Unfortunately, we need them now

Once this album is a hit, we'll be free to do whatever we want

You're about to record your first album. What more do we want?

Yeah, I guess so

Cut... cut

Joe

Sweetheart, it leaves me cold

Do something, darling

Darling?

So why don't you tell me what to play. I'll do as you say

Go on

Joe... just do your thing ... just play your solo

Yeah, sure

Mr Sukhani...

have you worked on a lot of albums?

Boss, I tell you...

the Subhash Ghai film Karz, starring Rishi Kapoor...

Track in... track in

Cut

All of you, out

Now, Aditya's close ups

Your shot's done? But you just went in...

Oh...

Aditya's close ups again

God, this is really boring

We look like clowns in these clothes. Why couldn't they let you style us?

And this director... keeps asking me to jump

If I keep jumping, when will I play the keyboards?

Aditya, take a break. - Okay

Thanks

What's the matter?

You'd see what the matter is Aditya...

if you'd only take off your rockstar shades

What?

What... maybe you didn't notice? The director's focusing only on you

The three of us are in the background, like sidekicks

Joe, relax

That too in these costumes. Do we look like a rock band?

Do you think I'm happy in these clothes?

Drop it, Joe

Aditya is our lead singer he has to be the focus

Please, Rob!

Whatever's happening here, isn't right

No one takes over in Magik! Remember? Your words

One chance at getting famous and you forget all your principles

Relax guys, relax. Please relax

Let's talk in the make-up room. Come on, please

I don't believe this

You think I knew this would happen when we signed the contract?

But I'm a professional, Joe. Maybe you should try to be one

Don't give me that professional shit, Aditya

You've sold out

That director was treating us so badly. Did you stop him even once?

Hello... what's going on here?

This studio doesn't come for free

We need a short break. We've got something to discuss

Discussions later, darling. The shoot is held up

Come on guys. - Please go away

I said, please go away

Darling

Keep this attitude of yours at home

You signed a contract, you'll do as I say

Got it? Come on, darling

Joe! Have you gone mad?

Joe! What the hell is wrong with you?

Blood! It's blood!

Get lost! I don't want to know!

Damn your album!

Magik is finished! Pack up!

I'll make sure you're finished!

I am Sukhani!

To hell with your contract...

I quit

Joe

Wow, man

After all these years...

nothing's changed here. - It's been a long time

Joe?

You're here after ages!

All okay? - Fine, Uncle Khursheed. How are you?

I'm great, perfect

Atea, please. - Sure

What a sharp memory. So long, and he still hasn't forgotten

It's the guitar. You carry it everywhere

So it stays in the mind

Maybe

Are they coming?

Bloody hell, man

Hello, guys

Your jeep is still alive? - Of course. Together, in life and death!

Oh god, please

Was that too much?

When did you get here? - Ten minutes ago

Where's Adi? Should I call him?

No, KD

He'll come if he wants to

I don't really understand what happened

Everything was perfect and then suddenly, it just all went wrong?

Perhaps you never noticed that something was troubling her?

Notice what?

What does she have to complain about me?

For four years, we've shared everything ... what more can I do?

Lots

Please don't mind, Aditya...

You may have been sharing a home

But you aren't sharing your lives

Sakshi still feels that you're a stranger about whom she knows nothing

And her feelings got stronger when she discovered those photographs

Damn those photos and damn that band

It's been ten years

When will it stop chasing me?

When you stop running

I guess we should go

Did you really think he'd come?

Shall we try something?

Sure

Shall we begin?

One of my laundry bills...

An unflnished novel...

Agirl's phone number... A useful piece of paper...

In my deck,

a king of hearts

And one of my silver rings... When I... this last...

No

The right pitch is two notes higher

Is that so?

Why don't you show us?

One of my laundry bills...

An unflnished novel...

Agirl's phone number... A useful piece of paper...

In my deck, a king of hearts...

And one of my silver rings...

When I look at what I lost this last week

Somedays I laughed at myself and somedays I cried

Happy birthday, Adi

Thanks, Joe

Sorry, I couldn't make it to your party last night

Better late than never

Let's not get too sentimental

Let's make some musicnow?

But not here. Look at the state of this place

It's boiling in here

Why?

Too used to airconditioning now?

You've lost your hair, what difference will it make to you?

Guys...

let's go to my place

Are you sure?

Yeah

Anyone coming to help? I'm not twenty five any more

Okay, Uncle

We are not at home. Please leave a message

Sakshi, hi... Aditya... again

You were right, I am upset with life

But if you're going to ignore me like this, my relationship with life will only get worse

You were right. I've been living only half a life

But if you leave like this, even that half-a-life will be no more

Yes you're right, I keep you at a distance

But today the distance is so wide that...

I'm talking to your answering machine and not to you

I never thought this would happen

Please come home, Sakshi

I love you... miss you

Good afternoon, sir

How are you, Bahadur? - Fine, sir

Put it down here

Namdeo, get the extension board as well

Adi... here?

Yes

Really?

I mean, everything looks so perfect here

Adi, are you allowed?

KD... this is my home

Come on, give me a hand

Go

Welcome back, Mrs Shroff

Thank you for coming to Magik Re-united's first concert

On lead guitar, we have Joe. Nowadays, he attends very few parties

On keyboard, we have Rob and KD on... vase

Down there... - Okay

Our conversations... I wish, they go on forever

Our sweet meetings... I hope, they go on forever

Remember?

Of course, but we never finished composing it. Let's try?

One moment... Rob

Rob...?

Yes? - Hi

Remember Sindbad the Sailor? - Yes

Scale?

G

In conversations,

we'll flnd new words of love

Then, with those words...

we'll write a song

A song...

that fllls hearts... all hearts...

with love

Let our words...

become songs

And let the words...

melt into tunes

Like hello, like hi, Rob!

I didn't know you had so much hidden talent

Thank you, Anu ji

There's a hotshot producer here. Meet him today

Sorry, not today. Some other time

I have to leave, it's urgent

Are you sure? - Yes

To turn sorrow into joy,

sing that song of love

And anyone who hears our song will say...

Sing again

Our conversations...

I wish, they go on forever

Our sweet meetings

I hope, they go on forever

For all our days and nights... forever

In conversations,

we'll flnd new words of love

Then, with those words...

we'll write a song

A song...

that fllls hearts...

all hearts...

with love

Let our words...

become songs

And let words...

in our conversations...

melt into tunes

Here. That settles your account

Where are you going? You have to pick up Andrew from school

Will you pick him up today, please?

What's happening? You've been staying out all day

I was...

going to the studio... I might land some work

Studio?

Purple Haze, in Bandra. Rob has fixed some meetings

Oh... oh really?

You keep saying that I ought to look for work

So, in the past few weeks I've been doing the rounds of studios

Okay... fine

Okay... bye

I'm on, Rob

Hi guys... - Hey, Joe

Hi Joe! Look, channel V's talent hunt is up next month, on the 24th

Winners get an album contract

What do you say? Should we enter?

One minute

Jamming indoors is one thing, performing on stage is quite another

After all these years, can we perform on stage?

Why not?

What's time got to do with rock and roll?

KD, I know you so well. You'll do all this, just to impress girls

Sakshi, if it impresses your friend Devika...

I have no problem

I'll see to it your message reaches her

Seriously guys, are we taking part in this contest?

I don't know, man

But I do

Yes, Joe

This is my last chance

And I don't want to throw it away

Just think, it's not as if we have to prove anything to the world

If we do this, it's only for ourselves...

to finish the journey we began ten years ago

For Magik?

For Magik

Wow! When is the contest? Can I come?

I haven't told Mummy about it yet

Why?

I want to give her a surprise...

So keep it...

zipped

I love you champ, you're a rockstar

Goodnight, champ

Goodnight, Nana

Goodnight, Joe

Debbie... - One second

I've something to tell you...

Okay, great. Joe's here too. I'll talk to him and call you back

Thanks a lot... really. Bye

That was Sandra. Remember her?

Her husband Pete is a chef on the Blue Line Cruise

His ship is on a six month voyage, round-the-world

They need musicians. The money is very good

Pete has already spoken for you. Just contact them

So you've planned to exile me?

Stop joking! Where will you find a better offer?

Just imagine, you get to travel the world

The company provides bed and board. All you have to do is play the guitar

And make money

When is it sailing?

On the 24th of next month, I think

24th...?

Yes, I think so. But before that you have to do an audition

Audition?

Joe, come on. They don't know how well you play the guitar

I'm telling you, when they hear you, they'll love it

Yeah... - You'll get the job really easily

Adi... come, let's eat. - Yeah... guys, let's eat

We still have our magictouch

Steaming hot

That song sounds definitely better. - But it can become...

"Much, much, much better"

Which reminds me... are we going to Channel Vtomorrow?

What time? - Four thirty

But don't worry. This time, we just fill up some forms

Rob, you okay?

Aslight headache. It's okay

Should I get you something?

No thanks. I took pills in the morning

Pills... what are your plans after the rehearsal?

Sir, Magik is here to meet you

Yeah, send them in

Magik, huh?

I heard you guys broke up?

Guess, I was wrong

Yes, you were

Actually, we were on a break

But now, we're back

Please sit down

Getting to see you up on stage will be pretty cool

And just look at your luck

This time, there's no competition

Especially since Chakravyuh has stopped performing

You're the lucky one

You lost then and this time, you wouldn't stand a chance

Well, you can't win everything in life

Anyway, the channel is hosting a party tomorrow night for the contestants

If you guys are free, why don't you come?

I'm getting tired of being a culture bandit

and oh... it's funny and sick recalling all the ways

How's the baby doing, Sakshi?

I would paint my face

Yesterday, we went for the sonography

It's beautiful. - Yes, it's a great feeling

KD, where's Rob?

He should be here anytime

Hi, everyone

Hi, Devika

Hello...

Looking good, KD

Thanks

And you always look great, Devika

Thanks

Aditya, can I borrow her for a second please?

Of course

Come

I'll see you later...?

What...? - What's wrong with you, dude?

Very romantic. - Of course, man

Get some water. Fast. - Water, please

Aditya

Aditya

Adi... Adi...

"Tanya, after what happened today, it's best that I leave. "

"When I'll meet you again, I can't say. "

Oh my god!

Tanya!

Hey Tanya...

Look at you!

What are you doing here?

The last time we met... was... - Ages

Hi, Joe

Good to see you

How's Debbie?

She's fine

You look great. - Thank you

Hey, glad you guys could make it

So you met my wife?

Of course, you know each other

I'm sure, you've a lot to catch up

You're okay?

Got to get myself a drink. Excuse me

I don't believe this

Remember, he and Joe scrapped...

KD, shut up. - Oh, of course

We were so immature

Back then, even I thought Ajay was a little weird

But after we became friends, I got to know he's a nice guy

And I'm happy to be with him

Cheers

I need a drink, man. KD... drink?

Yeah

You need something? - No, thank you

We'll see you soon. - Yeah

Looking great. - Thanks, KD

Hey Tanya

Hi

Tanya, I'm sorry, for leaving the way I did

I found your note

I knew then, you weren't coming back

Really?

Then, you knew more about me than I did

Yes

Let bygones be bygones

But at least, you've got a second chance, to perform with Magik

Life's rarely this generous with everyone

That's true

You know, I had put all that musicbehind me

But because of my wife Sakshi, it's happening all over again

Adi...

That's her... Sakshi

Hi

Tanya, a very old friend of mine

I wanted to thank you

Me?

If I hadn't seen your photographs, I'd have never known Aditya had a band

First, I was afraid I was petrifled

Kept thinking, I could never live without you by my side

Save the guests I am coming

But I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong

I grew strong I learnt how to carry on

And so you're back

From outer space

I just walked in to flnd you here with that sad look upon your face

I should've changed my stupid lock I should've made you leave your key

If I'd known for just one second you'd be back to bother me

Go on now, go...

walk out the door

Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye

You think I'd crumble, you think I'd lay down and die

Oh no, not I, I will survive

As long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive

I've got all my life to live I've got all my love to give

And I'll survive, I will survive

Hey, hey

KD... I don't know these songs

You have to sing

KD... I only know Hindi songs

So...?

Come on

Strange story it has been

Where it began Where will it all end

What destinies await us

Neither he knows, nor I

Strange story it has been,

Where it began Where will it all end

What destinies await us

Neither he knows, nor I

Why does smoke...

obscure the lamplight?

In my dreams...

I have woken up from my dream

Talk to him... - But Rob isn't taking my call

He must be busy. - But he would answer...

Let's go to his place

No way, KD

Adi, talk to him. - KD...

It's on our way back, let's go there

No... no way

I'll drop you to the car

I'll see you outside

Yes, but please come back. - Yeah

See you, girls

Rob...!

Hey KD...

Rob...

Rob, KD can't live without you

Hey Rob

Holy shit! Rob!

Guys... Adi...

Hang in there

You'll be fine, hang in there

Adi, take the next right

Shit!

So what if it's a No Entry? He's passing out

Rob, look at me, man... Rob

Just hang on... hang on... we're reaching the hospital

You'll be fine, you're going to make it

You see this?

I'm sorry,

but your friend has a grade Four brain tumour

Have you told Rob... that he has brain tumour?

He knows

What?

He tells me he's had some chemotherapy sessions

And he's taking medication too

Why didn't he tell us?

What good would it do?

You'd re-unite Magik thinking, poor Rob's dying

I didn't want that

If we are to get together again, it has to be because...

we believe in Magik's music and we believe in each other

But you don't believe we're your friends

Isn't that right?

It's not that, KD. This tumour has become a part of my brain

I'm beyond curing. That's a fact

Two days, two months, two years...

How much longer will I live...? I'm sick of thinking about that

Rob... listen to me

Dr Shetty is the country's best neurosurgeon

I'll talk to him

We'll shift you to his personal clinic

You'll be all right. - What the hell are you saying, Aditya?

Our show is on the 24th ... day after tomorrow

Have you gone mad?

Forget the show!

No, Aditya

This show is very important for me, perhaps my last chance

Don't you get it?

Where the hell were you?

You know how worried I've been? What's wrong with you?

After you left, the cruise guys called. Your visa is done

The ship is leaving tomorrow and you're going to be on it

What's the matter, Joe?

Debbie... Rob

And all these days, you were lying to me?

This Magik and all this...

Can't you see there's no future in it?

Whenever it comes to this band, why does your brain switch off, Joe?

I don't care

You're going on that cruise and that's final

Debbie, please

I've got another chance to do what I've always wanted to...

I don't know how to do anything else

And now Rob... - Stop it Joe

Agreed, what happened to Rob is terrible

But don't you see that your wife has been dying a slow death for ten years?

And Andy...

have you ever considered his future?

In life, you've got to make compromises

I wanted to become a fashion designer

Now look at me

I'm working your goddamned family fish-business

And what of Magik? You want to be a rock star at your age?

Use your head, Joe

Have you learnt nothing in ten years? You're ready to trust the same man again

These are the dresses you asked for

We really didn't have it in your palette, so I got you this

I want to see the red one

Would you like to try it on? - Sure

Ms Debbie is here to meet sir

Ask her to sit down. I'm coming

Hi Debbie

Welcome

Such a pleasure to meet you

You know, I've met your son Andrew

Congratulations

Oh... it's showing

Yes, there's a glow on your face

Is Aditya in? - Please sit in the study

I'll call him

Debbie...? Hi

I've been asking Joe about you for ages

Sit

Will you have a drink?

How've you been?

Not okay

But... you seem to be doing fine, like always

I'm sorry...?

Some people have all the luck, they get whatever they want

Like you

You were a hero in college, the creative rebel

And now, a successful businessman

Fantastichouse

Pretty wife

And soon, a father

Everything a man can ask for...

I can't tell if you're complimenting me or not

I'm just speaking the truth

Or you can take it this way...

I'm pointing out what sets you apart from Joe

Joe... Joe isn't lucky like you, Aditya

He's fought against life at every step

And such was his luck...

most often, he failed

Please, stop showing him these new dreams

Because when these dreams shatter, the shards will wound my life... Andrew's life

What are you trying to say?

If Joe goes for the show tomorrow, he'll lose a very good job

Just let him go, Aditya. Please

He still has fever, 102 degrees

I'm fine doctor

The fever will vanish the moment I get out of here

Rob, please be serious

They don't become doctors overnight

Listen to him. You need to rest

What if something happens on the stage?

Guys, if you think so negatively, I'll definitely collapse

Imagine...

tomorrow, we'll be on stage, there'll be lights, a huge audience

There'll be music,

in its every beat and every note, there will be life

Life

I want to live one night to the fullest before I die

Don't give up on me!

Okay, relax now

You should save your energy for tomorrow

I'm sorry, guys

But if I have to go, then why not with a bang

Right?

You're right

My eyes speak of bright stars,

colourful places

and open meadows

My thoughts speak of dancing shores,

where I stand alone, waiting for you

My dreams feel just like heaven

I'm just a traveller passing through

My eyes speak of bright stars,

colourful places

and open meadows

My thoughts speak of dancing shores,

where I stand alone, waiting for you

My dreams feel just like heaven,

I'm just a traveller passing through

Thank you very much, sister. See you doctor... bye

You're welcome

Don't let this moment pass us by...

as we talk

Tonight's the night!

Where's Sakshi? - She's watching the concert with Devika

Checking out the competition? - Yeah

Where'sJoe?

I'm...

fully unzipped

Saying hear I am

take a look at it

I'm getting tired of being a culture bandit

and oh...

it's funny and sick,

recalling all the ways...

I would paint my face

Saying, please come take me oh I'm worthy please

I believe,

I'll receive love

but 'til then I'm my own biggest fan

You guys are on in five minutes

Where the hell is Joe, man?

KD... - Yes?

I don't think Joe'll turn up

What do you mean?

Debbie came to see me last night

She said...

Joe's got a job on some ship and he's leaving

I was still hopeful that he'd turn up

Even after a decade, Magik is still stuck in the same rut

I'm so sorry, Rob

You know what...

We always get caught in this big ego clash...

between you and Joe

You the only ones with personal problems? What about us?

Forget it

That's the problem, I can't let go!

Aditya and Joe may be able to

We can't go on stage without Joe

Why not? If it's vital for Joe to be on that ship, it's vital for me to be on stage

And no one can stop me!

Even if I have to play the drums for twenty minutes on my own, I'll still go!

And you guys decide if you're with me

Wow, that was fantastic! Are you guys having fun?

We have to reach the airport in fifteen minutes

For the flrst time in ten years, here is Magik

Magik?

Andy, turn around

It's been ten years since Magik performed

But the wait isn't over yet

This song is his and this is for him, the one who couldn't be here today

With you beside me,

my heart sings a song

Without you,

my music is gone

If I have you with me,

I have everything

If you're gone,

there's not a thing

To have you with me,

is to live a wonderful dream

When you're around,

it feels like...

I've found every joy

When you're gone,

happiness doesn't satisfy me

It's my life that's asking,

for you

Papa, go!

When you're with me,

I can flnd my way

When you're gone,

there is no path

When you're here,

there is everything

Without you,

who's left?

If you're with me,

every moment is bliss

When you're with me,

I feel even the breeze has the colour of love

When you're gone,

life is without spirit

When I found you,

I found life

Ladies and gentlemen... please welcome, on lead guitar,

my friend, my brother, Joseph Mascarenhas

Sinbad the sailor, sailed away one day

listen up my friends

Looking for a new world

in his own way

He sailed into uncharted seas

He was at the mercy of the waves

He was warned not to go to sea

listen up my friends

Warned that it wasn't such a good dream to see

listen up my friends

He was rapt in his own dreams

And he listened only to his heart

For the only thing he owned, was a dream of his own,

that dream of Sinbad the sailor

For the only thing he owned, was a dream of his own,

that dream of Sinbad the sailor

A typhoon struck his boat once

listen up my friends

But he kept his zeal afloat

listen up my friends

He was such a devotee

A dream-walker, that's what he was

For the only thing he owned, was a dream of his own,

that dream of Sinbad the sailor

For the only thing he owned, was a dream of his own,

that dream of Sinbad the sailor

Thirsting for a dream

He kept right on his path

The oceans were deep and the waves tall,

listen up my friends

Where the largest ships sit uneasy,

listen up my friends

But he reached the shore one day

He flnally reached his destiny

For the only thing he owned, was a dream of his own,

that dream of Sinbad the sailor

With you beside me,

my heart sings a song

Without you,

my music is gone

If I have you with me,

I have everything

If you're gone,

there's not a thing

To have you with me,

is to live

a wonderful dream

When you're around, it feels like I've found every joy

When you're gone, happiness doesn't satisfy me

It's my life that's asking...

for you

When someone has a dream in his eyes, happiness is a joy in chasing that dream

Just for once make a wish from life, then you see

When someone has a song on his lips,

even a loss seems like a dream

The song in your heart...

sing it out, just for once...

then you see
