London. The greatest city
in the world.

For22 years, l've lived here

Every morning l take a walk
down this street

Every morning, the street asks me
my name...

Chaudhary Baldev Singh? Who are you?
Where are you from? Why are you here?

Do l have a reply? After half
a lifetime spent here...

this land still remains alien
to me; and l to it

No one here knows me. None except
these doves. Because they're like me

Neither do they belong to a country.
Just drop down where you find food

Have your fill, then fly on

When shall l fly? l don't know.
Of necessity, my wings are clipped

l'm shackled to my bread.
But someday l'll surely go...

to my land. To my Punjab

''When the koels sing in spring,
it's time again for memories''

''lt's time again for swinging
underthe boughs''

''Come home o'wanderer,
your heart beckons''

''The mute soil doesn't
read your letters''

''Come, kiss your soil, bring back
the earth to life''

''Yes, you have your dreams;
but we are yours too, your kin''

''You are so forgetful,
but we miss you so...''

''Come home o'wanderer,
your land beckons''

Glory to The Goddess

Yes Lajjo, l'm here safe and sound.
. Good

Why is my little one giggling away?
. Mom! Every day for20 years...

Dad has been walking down
the very same street...

to his very same destination.
Yet every day, you call him up...

just to ask him, ''Have you reached?''
. You won't understand

Just assume it's a habit.
. Habit left unchanged...

tends to become necessity.like.
. Philosophy, again? You're twelve

Talk like a 12.year old!
Why all this big talk?

There's no childhood, no adulthood.

One is as grown.up as one feels

All right! l lose! Now go to school,
chew yourteacher's brains, okay?

Why d'you forget
the almonds everyday?

What to do?
Just assume it's habit

Will you get out?

''This is the first time
it's happening in 18 years''

''Some stranger l have never seen,
comes to my mind''

That's my diary!
. So what...?

Only l can read it.
. That was so funny

Let me read some more.
. No way! This is a private diary.

Why hide anything from me?
When a girl is grown up...

her mother becomes her friend.
Show that to me

You won't tell anyone, will you?
. Never

All right. l'll read. You listen.
. very well

''This is the first time
it's happening in 18 years''

''Some stranger l have never seen,
comes to my mind...''

''shadow.like before my eyes''

''Someone raps on my heart''

''Deep eyes want me to give myself up''

''When l look at my hands,
there l see a face etched''

''A silken breath brushes my cheeks''

''My hair still smells
of the odour on his hands''

''Yes, it's happening for
the first time in 18 years''

''l've never seen this stranger
who comes to my mind''

Simi, you've begun
writing Quite well,...

and the boy seems lively.
Who's he?

Ma, l've yet to set my eyes on him

So there's no one? l was wondering.
One doesn't find such boys nowadays

And you dream of someone
you haven't even seen! quite mad

No Ma. This is no dream

l may not have met him, seen him.

But he's there. Out there, somewhere

''The one who comes in my dreams...''

''the one who teases me...''

''just ask him to face me, once''

''What's he like? Who is he?
Who knows where is the one...''

''my lips will say yes to?''

''ls he someone l know?
ls he a stranger?''

''ls he for real,
or just a legend?''

''He stares at me,
from far, far away''

''Tell him not to rob me
of my sleep''

''The one who comes in my dreams...''

''the one who teases me...''

''just ask him to face me, once''

''Some kind of spell is overcoming me''

''Oh what do l do?
My heart yearns so''

''My heart tells me it's mad for you.
Then why do you keep hiding from me?''

''He makes me blossom,
it's all his fault''

''Tell him, l'm asking forthe Moon''

''The one who comes in my dreams...''

''the one who teases me...''

''just ask him to face me, once''

raj! This partying all night!
Party all night and you don't sleep

And how do you get up in the morning?
Late for graduation! Hurry!

ls it a holiday...?

What raj...?
Late for your graduation?

What to do? Last night...

What's wrong with him?
Has he had one too many beers?

l hear someone has failed.
The Dean has decided...

to announce his name in public

You've made Dharamveer Malhotra stand
an inch and a half taller in his shoes!

l don't think you heard it right.
. l knew, someday you'd make me proud!

And not only me, the whole dynasty is
proud of you! Look, they smile at you

My great grandfather Diwan Brijnath
neverwent to school

His son, my grandfather
Diwan Dwarkanath failed...

his fourth standard examinations.
My father, your grandfather...

Diwan Pushkarnath, failed
his eighth standard examinations

And l, your father,
failed to matriculate

Not having an education, failing,
are family traditions. l'm happy...

that you have kept tradition alive,
and indeed you're two steps ahead

We failed back home in lndia.
You came to London and failed!

Are you really happy?
. Glad

Education is all useless.
Filling your head with books...

won't fill your pockets

Look at me. runaway peasant.boy from
Bhatinda.turned millionaire in London

So, whatever happens is forthe good.
Join my offices from tomorrow

Offices? From tomorrow?
. Today, if you wish

l can't attend office now.
. Why not?

Pops, you're a man of experience

You know what amount of hard work
it takes to fail. And l'm tired, Pops

l want a little rest, you know,
like a long European holiday

Long European holiday? How long?
. Month or month and a half

Will you hold this for me?
And turn around

Moron! Did l bring you up
to see this day?

No, don't drop that

Are you all right, Pops?

Pops, you're right. l ought
to take care of your business

You've become so old.
. You tell your fatherthat?

Pops, l've decided against Europe.
l'm joining the offices from tomorrow

ln this house, only your father
decides. You're going to Europe

No. l've had enough of a good time.
My years of youth are over for me

Never say your youth is over.

All my life l've slogged to give
you whatever l couldn't do

When youth came and went,
l never got to know

But l wasn't sad, because l knew
that my son will have my years

lf you think you've had enough
of a good time...

if you think the years of youth
are over for you, well no problem

Just go and live my years for me

Ajit's letter?

Lajjo! Look, what's here
Letter! From my friend

From Ajit

Just smell it, lady!

The fragrance of Punjab!

The flavour of mustard curry
on leavened maiZe bread

Those long tailed shirts,
the short knickers

''My dear friend Baldev,
We're fine here''

''We hope to God that you, yourwife
and the children are well too''

''You will be pleased to hearthat
my son has graduated in arts''

''He has joined my business.
By God's grace, it's time now...

for us to let our childhood
friendship mature into a relationship

Let's make good the promise we made
to each other20 years ago. l hope...

you will come here at the soonest
for Simran's wedding to kuljit

She's shy! See Lajjo?

That's our etiQuette, our culture

My daughter is still so shamefaced.
l'm not a failure

ln the heart of London,
l've kept lndia alive!

Still staring? Lajjo, your daughter's
wedding! Celebrate it with sweets

Chutki! l'm so happy today

Can l say one thing?
. Say fourthings

lt'd be betterto ask Simran once.
. What are you saying?

Ever since she was a baby, she has
known that she is engaged to kuljit

That she knows. But 20 years...
. Don't you worry!

Simran is going to be so happy,...

you'll pray that she never
gets the evil eye!

l'll write to Ajit right away.
God! At last, comes the day

Simran, what are you doing?

l had forgotten, Ma. l haven't
even the right to dream

No my child, of course
you may dream

But don't expect them
to come true

And who know, kuljit might be
the man of your dreams

l don't care.
l've bought yourtickets.

You're coming to Europe with me
. l can't

Babuji won't let me go to college
alone. Will he let me go away...

touring Europe for a month?

l have lots of work here.
. You've known me for years

Can't you make up an excuse?

An excuse, l can find. But l don't
feel like lying to Babuji

You must come. Dolly and Payal
are coming too

Let me talk to Ma tonight

Europe?
. Yes

With friends?
. Yes

For a month?
. Yes

Chutki, call the doctor. Tell him
that our Simran has gone stark mad

Will you at least take a look?
. Check out your brains first

You talk of travelling by Eurail?
lf he hears, he'll bring the roof down

A lone girl mustn't travel like this.
. Mom, l'm not going to be alone

My friends are going to be with me.
. No good arguing with me

l'm not going to object. But you
will need his permission

Ask him when he's home

God, please keep Babuji
in a nice mood

lt's just beer. lt's overthere.
. l told you. The store is shut

Get out

Got the beer?
. Didn't find any

Can't even do such a simple job?
. That was an angry man

l'll get it.
. You won't

Can l have an Aspirin?
. The store is shut

My head is about to crack up!
lt's sinusitis

lf l can't find an Aspirin,
l'll faint.

All the other stores are shut

Please let me have one Aspirin. One
Hindustani ought to help another

Glory to The Goddess.
. Here you are

l'm feeling bad about forcing you to
open your store for a small medicine

l'd like to buy some otherthings
from you

l'll pick up some beer.
Not for myself.

My friends out there, they drink

Put it down.
. Why sir?

Are you trying to con me? You aren't
getting anything. Put it down

You're getting worked up
over nothing. This is for your profit

Will you put it down?
. Not that umbrella

Here you are. A pound eXTra?
No two. keep it, okay?

Shameless!

You call yourself a Hindustani?
You give lndia a bad name

You're a liar and insolent!
Get out of here

l'm off. l'll keep this

rev up!

Babuji

What is the matter? You're late.
. Bloody shameless scoundrel

They call themselves Hindustani! Blot
on lndia! Ought to drown themselves

rascals! No shame, no decency.
How to respect their elders...

they don't even know.
. Have you had a fight?

Scum! He came for beer. l told him
the store is shut. He took it perforce

He even broke the statue of
The Goddess! Bloody half.caste!

l say Lajjo, thank God that
you and your daughters...

haven't been marred
by this Britishness!

Else, you would've been nowhere!

Damn these scoundrels!

Set sail in stormy waters, and
you're in danger of sinking

You were so little when we brought
you here. And now...

They said that a grown.up daughter
is a burden on a man

But a daughter like you, makes
a father's chest swell with pride!

You're my good girl

Will you give something if l ask you?
. Whatever you wish

l want to take a look at Europe

Eurail is offering a month's tour.
All my friends are going

Please don't be cross. l have
never disobeyed you, Babuji

l'll be going away to a land
l have never seen

The man l'm going to marry
is a complete stranger. But...

l have no complaints. You must've
considered it in my best interests

But l won't get a chance
like this ever again.

l don't even know whether
l'll ever come back,...

whether l will have
these friends later on

Besides, it's only for a month. ln
a month, l will have lived a lifetime

Forthe sake of my happiness, won't
you let me have a month of my life?

Please Babuji, give me one month

Go. Live it up

My baby

Where's Simran?

Where might she be?
. Has she slipped in the loo?

l told you to wake up raj
Did you?

No

Open sesame

Do you have the keys to this?

Anybody home?

No one at home

Haven't l seen you somewhere?

At robbie's party, no?

l don't go to parties.
. Great! Nor do l, ever

Your eyes...

What's wrong with my eyes?

reminds me of someone.
. Of whom?

My grandmother. Like you, her eyes
too had hues of yellows and blues

keep reading. l only wanted to find
out how you read upside.down

This is the limit!

Simran, you're here?

l heard you've missed the train.
. No, l took it

l was afraid...
. By the way, what's your name?

Sheena

Here l am. Shall we...?
. Take it easy

Pump it up
. lt's pumped. Look

lt's nothing.
. raj, where have you been?

As usual. Caught up with a girl

Girl...?
. l help her onto the train

And she falls for me.
. What...?

He bored me. He had me all alone,
and he began flirting

Same old hat....
haven't l seen you before?

She sidled up to me.
. What?

l was scared! Only so much space,
and there she was with me

Then?
. Then what? She was lost in my eyes

He was after my eyes. Wouldn't
shut up. Boys these days...

These girls! l just managed
to come out unscathed

What's that?
. lnvitation to a party

l told you. lt'll be a bore.
. You prophesied a train crash

And then we'd all be charred alive
after supper in a dinner.hall fire

Look, boys.
. Where...?

He's the one

Where have we landed?
Was this your idea?

us? Orthe waiters?
. For me.

rocky shut yourtrap

Why did you have to call him?

You know Sheena, haven't
l seen you before?

Me? really? Where?
. At robbie's party?

You might've.
l go to so many parties

You know Sheena...
. What?

Your eyes remind me of someone.
. My eyes? really? Whom?

My grandmother

ls she singing or crying?
And l can play better piano

You know how to play the piano?

l was born on a piano. Been playing
the piano ever since l was a baby

You know, l've magic in my fingers.
No soonerthan l touch the piano...

it starts playing

lsn't that voice familiar?

Was this necessary?

Doesn't the magic in your fingers
make pianos start playing?

''Stop, my wild lover''

''l've got to ask you something''

''What are you, girl or magic?''

''What are you, fragrance or poison?''

''Come, let me touch you''

''Wait, my wild love''

''l've got to ask you something''

''Look at me, smiling, unknowing''

''l'm waiting for you,
holding my heart''

''She looks subdued''

''But she has lots to say''

''lf you say yes,
l have something to say''

''Wait, my wild love''

''l've got to ask you something''

''What are you, girl or magic?''

''What are you, fragrance or poison?''

''You aren't the only
pretty woman around''

''Why are you the only one
who's cross?''

''The one l've fallen for,
is someone else''

''lf she says yes,
l'll take her in my arms''

''Wait, my wild love''

''l've got to ask you something''

''What are you, girl or magic?''

''What are you, fragrance or poison?''

''Come, let me touch you''

About last night, l'm ashamed

l misbehaved with you

l wanted to tell you something else

What...?
. This

run

First come, first served

Hurry! The train is about to leave.
. Where did l keep my money?

One minute, l don't know how to count
this currency... lots of small change

Can you tell me one,
two's, eighths...?

Stop

Train's gone?

The train is gone!

Don't cry, Senorita

But you just stopped crying

lt's raining! Don't cry, please!
l'm with you, l'm here! Look

Okay, l'm gone... gone!
Here's your bell

The neXT train is very late.
To catch up with the train...

at zurich tomorrow morning, we can
eithertake a bus or hire a car

What would be your pleasure?
Bus or car? Where's she?

Ever since you met me,
you've been harassing me

What are you saying?
. All along the trip...

you've been chewing my brains.
. l...?

Something's always the problem
with you. Today, l've missed...

the train, thanks to you.
. To me...?

l wish to make it to zurich on time.
So you go yourway, l'll go mine

Strange! We're fellow.travellers,
on the same destination, same train

Why split up? Besides, a man like me
ought to stay with a girl like you

Wrong! A girl like me doesn't need
a guy like you. Stop pursuing me

l'll sew it up. l have a thread and
needle. l'll buy you a new dress

What have you got yourself into?

l told you not to pursue me!
Who do you think you are?

What do you think of yourself?
l wasn't pursuing you

And l don't fancy touching you. Thank
your stars l came in the nick of time

Else, you would've been in jail.
l help her, and she says this

Hey, take her away

What did you say?

l got carried away

Never mind Senorita, never mind. ln
big places, such small things happen

What's about this Senorita?
. My first girl friend was from Spain

Why did you dump her?
. She hated lndians

You like lndians, don't you?
. When do we reach zurich?

What's in zurich?
This is the real Europe

So beautiful, so pretty. Sometimes,
l fear, it might become dirty

Here forthe first time?
. Yes

Will you drive faster?
. What's the hurry Senorita?

Train leaves zurich at 11:30 tomorrow.
We have a whole night and half a day

We'll be there on time.
. Still, if we could...

What had to happen, has happened.
Now you're with me

Nothing can go wrong

Europe is best done on foot

Just the four of us.
Chutki is way ahead of her years

And Ma's more a friend than a mother.
So l never felt the need for a friend

You can't live the rest of your life
with friends. Sometime orthe other...

you will need someone who will
walk by you all your life

Can't walk anymore. l'm tired.
. Do l pick you up in my arms?

l can't afford a hotel. Let's try
that house. We might find lodgings

Come. Arrangements forthe night
is done

Which is your room?

Situation is somewhat like this.
There's only one room

And we spend the night in the same
room? You presume somewhat like that?

How compelling!
. Not Quite so compelling

l'm not staying here one minute.
. You take the bed. l'll take the sofa

No problems.
. No way. l'm leaving

l'm not joking. l'm going away.
. And l'll have the bed all to myself?

So nice... so romantic!

And these curtains... so nice!

And the view!

No horses?

lt's so warm in here

There! You have a fire going

Granted. You have a great sense
of choice

You couldn't find a better place
to spend the night, right?

We were getting a nice room

But you'd rather spend the night
with me in the stables. Not in the room

Eat
. l'm not hungry

All right. Don't eat.
How am l bothered?

Eat it

l told you. l'm not hungry.

Come on now. Eat

What did you say?

l got carried away

Never mind. ln big places,
such small things happen

You were right, Senorita.
The spirit of adventure in this barn...

you could never enjoy in that room.
. But how do we get to zurich?

No, not zurich. Tomorrow evening, we
entrain at Berne. Tomorrow morning...

we take the first bus at eight.
l've found out everything

Now, nothing can go wrong

What's that?
. Life

Aren't you ashamed to drink
in the presence of a lady?

Betterthan dying before the lady!
lf you wish to live on...

you too should have a bit, Senorita.
. Don't you dare come near me

All right, don't

l'll see you tomorrow morning if
you're still alive.

until then, goodnight

''May l have a jig?
. Oh no!''

''May l try a pirouette?
. Oh no!''

''How about a kiss?
. Goodness! No!''

''Let me fly with the wind''

''God! Help me''

''The chill in the breeZe
sets my body afire''

''l feel like...''

''making love to you''

''This never happened before''

''l've taken my first step''

''Let me fly with the wind''

''God! Help me''

''May l have a jig?
. Oh no!''

''May l try a pirouette?''
. Oh no!''

''Give me a kiss?
. Goodness! No!''

''Where do you think you're going,
my darling, my love...?''

''You're a pretty girl.
l'm a handsome young man''

''Come into my embrace''

''Let me hold you in my eyes''

''Oh, l'm drunk''

''God! Help me''

''May l have a jig?
. Oh no!''

''May l try a pirouette?''
. Oh no!''

''Give me a kiss?
. Goodness! No!''

''Oh, l'm ecstatic''

''God! Help me''

up in the mornings,
you look even prettier

How did l get here?

With me. Last night

l don't think you've ever
had a drink before

And you had one too many

Have this

What happened last night?

What happened last night,
was bound to happen

But l didn't imagine
it'd happen this way

Tell me the truth, raj!
What happened last night?

How do l answer
this Question, Simran?

Look, look into my eyes.
Aren't my eyes telling the truth?

No! This could never have happened

This could never have happened.
. That's exactly what happened, Simran

Who can stop what is to happen?

You're lying!
You're lying, aren't you?

No Simran.
. Please tell me you're lying

Granted! l'm lying,
my eyes are lying.

But are these love.bites lying?

Speak

Tell me Simran! Are these yours?
Or someone else's?

Don't cry! l was just joking

Those aren't real! Look!
l used your lipstick

You only had one too many,
and you were dripping wet

l had no options. l had to bring
you here. l swear, l'm just joking

You were all alone on the bed. l slept
out there. l'm just joking! l swear

Don't cry, don't

l know what you think of me.
You think l'm a wastrel

l'm not scum, Simran.
l'm Hindustani

And l know what honour means
forthe Hindustani woman

Not even in my dreams can l imagine
doing that to you. Trust me, Simran

l'm saying the truth. Last night,
nothing happened. Just a joke

Please, never joke about that.
You don't know what l would've done

Please, no jokes like that

l promise neverto crack
a joke like that

Get changed. Fast.
We got to catch the bus

May l have my shirt back?

Fifteen minutes before the bus
leaves. You want to eat something?

No, l'm not hungry

Come on, let's take a look inside.
. Churches aren't worth a look

l'm not going

Go on. Take a look

What?
. Hurry up. We'll miss the bus

Shall we?
. Why not leave aftertea?

What did you ask for?
. You aren't supposed to speak of it

Then you must be sure about
being given what you've asked for

Whatever one seeks with a pure heart,
one is surely given

Go on. l'll be back in a minute.
. What happened?

Go on. l'll join you

l'm raj

l'm sorry, l don't know how to pray.
But l want nothing for myself

But that girl Simran, she's nice.
very good at heart

Give herwhatever she asked for

Where have you been?

ln the church?

Half a teaspoon of sugar, one spoon
of milk, bit of cream. Your coffee

You want a postcard to send home?
. Postcard? For home?

lf that postcard reaches home,
my Pop will give me up for dead

When were you last serious?
. Till now, never

lf ever, it'll happen only once.
. When?

When l'm in love

A boy like you was never in love?
. l've had many affairs

But l was never in love, Senorita.
Never found one

What kind of girl are
you looking for?

Want me to tell you?

The moment l look at her...

all my heart's desires, all my
dreams will come alive

Has never happened. But now l hear
a voice, behind the clouds, calling

She's a stranger, a face l've never
seen before. When will the clouds part?

Has it never happened with you?
. No

No stranger ever invaded your dreams?

No place for strangers in my dreams

l am engaged to marry

Engaged to marry?
. Yes

Where's the fiance? ln London?
. No, in lndia

Looks...?

Don't know. Never seen him

You've never seen the man
you're going to marry?

Not necessary. My father has
seen him. His friend's son

You'll spend your life with someone
you've never met?

A complete stranger?

That's how it happens with us.
. And you're happy with this decision?

The train is here

Lovely photographs. Send me a set of
copies. And yourwedding photos too

Won't you be there at my wedding?
. Who's going to travel so far?

Sheena, you must!
.Just joking. Of course, l'll come

l got to take a look at your groom.
Who knows what idiot she's marrying?

You dropped this

What happened? Why are you
staring like that?

l have something to tell you Simran

Go on

l'm in love with you

Just look at your face

You thought l was saying the truth?

Strange Simran!
You've known me for so long,...

and you still can't make me out?
remember? l've never been serious

All this love etc. is beyond me.
Still haven't been able to make out...

how some men spend a lifetime with one
girl! lt's a world full of pretty women

Someone has beautiful eyes, someone has
good lips, someone has nice hair...

You boys are all the same.
. But you're one up on all of us

You're about to spend a lifetime
with someone you haven't even seen

That must be true love

Forget it. Think for a moment,
what if you're in love with someone?

l mean, imagine you're in love with
someone you've met on this trip...

why someone? Say you're in love
with me, and l'm in love with you too

Then what will you do? Will you
go back to marry that stranger?

Or, will you have the courage
to have an affairwith me?

What will you do?

l don't want to miss the train again.
. l want to miss it again and again

What...?
. Nothing

lf she's in love with me,
she's going to turn around

Turn

Turn

Back in London. How a month
passed by, l didn't even notice

raj, you haven't given me your address.
l'll send you my wedding invitation

You'll come, won't you?

No, l won't come

''What's come over...''

''my heart?''

''Have l lost it?''

''What's come over my heart?''

''Where have l lost it?''

''You're in love, my love''

''Try refusing a million times,
but you're in love''

''You're in love, my love''

''Try refusing a million times,
but you're in love''

''Darling, this is love''

''You're in love, my love''

''Try refusing a million times,
but you're in love''

''Darling, this is love''

''You didn't care to turn around,...''

''but l was still waiting''

''By the time l wanted
to stop you,...''

''you were too far away''

''What happened?
. l don't even know''

''Why is my heart...
. ln love...?''

''You're in love, my love''

''Try refusing a million times,
but you're in love''

''You're in love, my love''

''Try refusing a million times,
but you're in love''

''Darling, this is love''

''Oh time! Stop, tarry,...''

''go backwards''

''l've left myself behind...''

''at the crossroads of life''

''Where am l...?
. Where are you?''

''What is this...?
. Magic''

''You're in love, my love''

''Try refusing a million times,
''You're in love, my love''

''Try refusing a million times,
but you're in love''

''Darling, this is love''

''What's come over...''

''my heart?''

''My heart was with me always''

''Have l lost it?''

''l've lost it''

Ma, you rememberthe dream
l wrote about in my diary?

That face l imagined
holding in my hands?

The one, l wanted to face

l've found him

What...?

What are you saying, Simi?
. Yes Ma. When l was leaving...

l was clear about what
l was getting out of life

For a month, l wanted to be as happy
as l could. Then l'd come back...

and go away to my country to spend
a lifetime with a stranger

l had come to a compromise with my
destiny, Ma. But little did l know...

this was in store for me.
Like a storm he came...

and he swept me off
like a fallen leaf

Love's like this, like that,
l had read, l had heard

But l never understood. When, forthe
first time, he offered me his hand...

l still didn't understand.
l was with him for so long...

still l didn't understand anything.
But today, when we were parting...

forthe first time l felt
that afterthis moment...

l'm not going to see him ever again.
l kept looking back. He was going away

l wanted to stop him, l wanted to say
something, l wanted to hear something

But he didn't stop. l understood.
This is what love is like

And to him, l've given all my dreams.
l don't even know whether he loves me

All l know is that for me, he's life.
l can never be anyone else's, Ma

You're up? Simi and l
have been talking

She's back after so long.
l even lost track of time

l told you, not to betray my trust

l took a promise from you.
And you've deceived me?

No Babuji...
. Listen, first ask her

l don't want to listen to anything!

Pack. Tomorrow morning,
we leave for lndia

For good

Let her cry

She has writ it on her own destiny

She will have to learn for herself
how to get over it. Let her cry

What's her name?
. Simran

What girl, Pops?

The one whose face you see
in the moon.

l'm not one of them...

who will go craZy about a girl.
. Yes, l forgot!

Some have good lips, some have
beautiful eyes...

Lives where?
. Who, Pops?

This... Simran

Don't know
. How is she?

very lovable

Then what's the problem?

Problem is, she's about to marry.
. How about stopping the wedding?

ln yourtimes, it was different.
Times have changed

Love is still called ''love''. That has
never changed, norwill it ever change

She's going to be someone else's.
. The bride goes to the man...

who brings her home. l didn't sire
you to play that fiddle. We aren't...

those who stare at the moon. You
reach out to the moon,...

you bring her home. Go

And come home only
with your bride. Get it?

Gone. The daughter is
getting married.

They've sold out and moved to Punjab

l'm coming, Simran

l'm coming

''When the girls go to the riverbank,
you'll heartheir anklets chime''

''When the ripe mustard sways
in the farms...''

''you'll know a year
has come to pass''

''Come today, come with a smile,
bring me a song, l've been waiting...''

''forthe whistle
of the chugging train''

''Come home o'wanderer,
your mate beckons''

''Come home o'wanderer''

''Your land beckons''

Bless me, Ma.ji

No Ma.ji

Son, 20 years l've held back
these tears

Today, they won't stop, son.
Not today

Simran, my child

My baby doll

How have you been?
. l haven't changed a bit!

You're the bride's aunt now!
Time to find a good groom for yourself

Lajjo, l've been ready all these years!
But in this village...

there isn't one who's a match for me.
So what do l do? For me, l think...

it'll have to be a foreigner!
. You haven't changed a bit

Not a bit!

You did keep us waiting.
Anyway, better late than never

Wife, will you excuse us a moment?
. Get lost

Come on. Baldev, who's this?
Go on...

You don't know?
My daughter Preeti

kuljit's sister.
. May you live long

Wonderful, isn't it? ln 20 years,
the whole generation has come of age

She's beautiful.
. Father's daughter, right?

Get lost

Where's kuljit?
. Yes, where's kuljit?

Bhaiyya (Brother) is out for a hunt.
He should be back soon

My respects.
. May you live long, son

My respects.
. May you live long, son

That's a strong lad from Punjab.
. Whose son is he anyway?

Get lost

Come, breakfast is ready.
. Yes hurry. l'm famished

Come on kids

For you, for you and for you

You must take me out
tomorrow morning.

Sure Didi (Sister)

kids, Grannie wants
everyone downstairs

You know Simi, when l was a kid,
my fatherwould tell me...

there's no difference between
man and woman. All have eQual rights

All my childhood, l lived believing
it's true. But as l grew up...

l realised what a lie that is

l wasn't given an education,
because it was more important...

that my brothers be educated.
That was my first sacrifice

Then, at every step, sometimes
as daughter, sometimes as sister...

sometimes as wife... l went on
sacrificing my own happiness

But once you were born...

when l held you in my hands
forthe first time...

l made a promise, neverto let happen
to my daughter, what happened to me

No more sacrifices at every step
as daughter, as sister, as wife

So what if she's a girl?
She'd live her life as she wishes

She'd have her share of happiness.
But l was wrong, Simran

l had even forgotten that a woman
hasn't even the right to make promises

She is born to be sacrificed for
their men. Fortheirwomen...

men will never make sacrifices,
norwill they ever make sacrifices

Therefore l, your mother, come to
take from you, your own happiness

Forget him, my child. Forget. Because
your fatherwon't care for yourtears

Forthe happiness of everyone,....

l beg of you. Forget him, my child

You're right, Ma

So naive of me. l don't even know
whether he loves me

And after all, Babuji is my father.
He has always cared for my happiness

Forthe sake of his happiness,
can l not make this little sacrifice?

Go Ma, go and tell Babuji that
l'm ready forthe wedding

He won't have any problems
from my end

Your girl is beautiful

Not the girl. kuljit is plain lucky

And my name is rajeshwari.
Miss rajeshwari Singh

lf the little one is like this,
what will the older one be like?

l'll tell you, afterthe wedding

Listen

The day aftertomorrow is the
engagement

The wedding is on the 25th

Sweets

l'm worried about something

l don't know why l see this
sadness in Simran's eyes.

Even her smile is hesitant.
ls everything all right?

lt's nothing, Ma

lt's a new place, it's a change.
ln a few days, she'll adjust

Don't worry for nothing

Here you are, kheer

Simran hasn't forgotten him yet?
. She has agreed to get married

By and by she will forget everything.
. lf she remembers, she'll regret it

''l saw you, l realised...''

''what madness love is''

''When l saw you, l realised...''

''what madness love is''

''From here, where to?''

''Just let me die in your arms''

''My eyes...
dream of you''

''My heart holds memories of you''

''Nothing's mine.
lt's all yours''

''My life, my breath is yours''

''When l weep for you, yourtears...''

''my sorrows begin to smile''

''l saw you, l realised...''

''what madness love is''

''From here, where to?''

''Just let me die in your arms''

''l don't feel like anything''

''What do l say, what do l do?''

''ln front of me...
just keep sitting''

''Just let me look at you''

''You called out to me,
and look, here l am''

''What greaterthan
the promise to love?''

''l saw you, l realised...''

''what madness love is''

''l saw you, l realised...''

''what madness love is''

''From here, where to?''

''Just let me die in your arms''

Take me away from here, raj.
Take me away from here!

What...?
. You don't know...

what's going on in there!
Day aftertomorrow is the engagement

The wedding is after a fortnight.
All arrangements are in place

Babuji gave his word to his friend.
And he lives by his word

He can do anything, but he can't
go back on his word

We have to run from here. We must!
. No Simran. l'm not eloping

l haven't come here to steal you.
l might have been born in England

But l am Hindustani. l've come here
to take you as my bride.

l'll take you only when
your Babuji gives me your hand

You don't know my Babuji!

We have to get away from here, raj.
Please raj, take me away from here

Do you love me?
. More than anyone else

Do you trust me?
. More than l trust myself

Then listen carefully to what
l'm going to say. From now on...

we're strangers. l don't know you
and you don't know me. Go back

Let things happen as they're happening.
Leave the rest to me

What l'm upto is daunting. But l have
complete faith in our love.

But alone...l cannot tread upon
this path.

You will have to be my strength

You must co.operate. Tell me,
will you stand by me?

remember one more thing.
l'm here only for your sake.

Till l have you for lifetime's
sakes, l am not leaving

Listen, what's the name
of the one you're marrying?

kuljit Singh

Help!
Anybody here?

Somebody, help me!

Where's everyone? Help!

Anybody around?

Had raj not arrived in the nick
of time, l would've been the prey

raj, l'm sold out!

. What are you saying?
. Where are you from?

l've never seen you before
. l'm from London

Our guest from London!

What have you come here for?
. To achieve something

To achieve what? Do tell us

Land... land.
. Land...?

Yes, if l could find a good stretch
of land, l want to set up a factory

Factory, making what?
. Beer

Tell me something, kuljit.
Will 8.10 million pounds...

be enough to set up a factory?

What happened?
.8.10 million pounds?

Too less? l can get more.
. No! That's a lot. Enough

God is great! He makes us meet.
We'll get along fine together

You want to set up a factory?
As good as done

Done, my man

By the way raj...

where are you staying?
. You see, l don't know anyone around

So l'm putting up at
the Circuit House.

Strange! Now you know me

l have a palatial house! And you'll
stay at the circuit house? No way!

Binda, go and get his luggage from
the circuit house. Drop it home

What are you doing, kuljit?
. Not a word

You've saved my life, saved kuljit!
Can't l do as much for you?

l know, you're from London.
Here in Punjab, we're lions

You're going to enjoy yourselves.
. Well, if you're forcing me...

as you wish.
. That's like it!

What about babes?

We'll have a blast!

You haven't gone yet?

Go on Binda, hurry up.
Get a Black Label for raj

l'm going to have a scotch with raj

Show me a cigarette, man. Strange!
The lightertoo

You have done us a great favour
in saving kuljit's life

No, it was my duty.
. May you live long, son

Preeti, give raj some sweets

Enough

10 million pounds! Why didn't
you tell me before?

l was about to...
. raj! My son!

The sweets.
. l have some

Let me feed you. That's like it!
You want to set up a factory, no?

We'll set it up for you.
. What was l telling you?

Get dressed fast. We're going
to Baldev's for lunch

Who's Baldev?
. He's my friend, man!

His daughter is marrying my kuljit

What am l going to do overthere?
. That's true. What will he do there?

But if you insist, l'll come along.
. That's like it!

Baldev is a bit British.
He'll mind it if we're late

Let's make it on time.
. That's like it!

You get dressed fast. We're always
getting late because of you

kuljit, l have something to tell you.
. Don't worry about the factory

l have...

l'll take all of it

Compliments

My compliments

Listen...
. l...?

How did the shopkeeper get here?

l've seen you somewhere before.
. Not me. l never step out of the house

ln London...?
. But l haven't been beyond Ludhiana

Have you met my friend raj?
He has just arrived from London

What are you saying?
. Balli, the doctor...

raj is the one who saved
kuljit's life yesterday

You know who this is? The oldest
of my friends. My kinsman to.be

What are you staring at?
Touch his feet

My respects

Hurry! The doctor has been
asking for you for ages

This doctor is a wonderful fellow.
Come on, man

Old foggie has Quite a memory.
. What happened?

Nothing. This is great! Lovely house!
. l told you

This is raj. My friend.
He has come from London

This is Simran

Namaste, Simran.ji

Were it not for him yesterday,
you and l wouldn't be here together

What a thing to say...

very glad to meet you, Ms rajeshwari

What is this?
. A little gift. For a little bride

Mr raj, folks l like
can call me Chutki

And folks who like me,
call me raj. Only raj

Namaste, Simran.ji.
. Namaste

Come on now

This is raj, my British friend

The one l told you about.
. My respects

May you live long, son.
. Coming

Have some.
. Thanks Ma.ji (Mother)

Let me do the rest for you.
. No, you belong to the groomspeople

You're our guest.
. How strange of you

A moment ago you called me your son.
The neXT moment, you disown me?

Allow me

Just try this lassi. l made it with
my own hands! Here you are, Aunt

Here you are Parjai.ji (Aunt).
This is for you, Aunt

That's a lovely dress

Excuse me...

After you

Why are you taking all this trouble?
We kids can manage. Allow me

That's what l've been saying all
along. But no one will listen to me

l've been given all the work.
. That's my point

Hey... who are you?
. l...? l'm raj

raj, who...?
. Your son.in.law to.be

kuljit is your son.in.law to.be, no?
l'm his friend

Darling boy! Put the glasses there.
. Sure

Such a darling!

Today l see the best sign!
Forthe first time...

l'm seeing Simran laughing
with such mirth!

Give that to me.
. l won't

True, Ma.ji. Simran looks
very cheerful

Sweet? Salted?

Nothing's happening for raj here!
Get ready to leave

Son of an Englishman! Get up!
Hurry! We're going hunting

Look at him
Aren't you coming? Get up.

l'm sick. l have high fever

Caught such a chill last night,
l slept in my shoes, you know

You're wearing only one shoe.
. That's the leg that caught the chill

Sorry friend, l just can't
go hunting with you

You British are so feeble.
l'll send medicines for you

Make sure you're fine
by this evening.

We're having fowl for dinner.
Don't worry, you'll be fine.

Hey kuljit...

Come on raj, get started

What's this?
. keep moving

What's all this raj?
. Wonderful thing happened today

Met a minister on my way. Turns out
to be my Daddy's childhood friend

He gave me all this. Let me take care
of that. Don't tire yourself

l'm a lone fellow you know. What use
this sugar, rice and wheat for me?

So l thought l'd bring it over.
There's a wedding in the offing here

Could be useful, no?
. Maybe so, son

But we're the bridespeople.
Can't take anything from you

Not again. Once and for all,
decide what you take me for

Either you don't call me a son,
or you treat me like a son

How do you treat sons?
. You don't argue with sons

All right. l won't argue.
. That's like it

Now listen to the real thing, Ma.ji.
My mother used to say...

one who helps out with a wedding,
gets a pretty bride

All this, for a pretty bride?
. What else? Only lucky ones...

find good brides nowadays.
. What kind of a bride d'you want?

Say, someone like you

Don't say that.
Give me your blessings.

Granted. You'll get a bride you want

All right, l'm off.
. Will you please open this?

lt's going to open

Aunt, don't keep looking,
don't even think. Just take it

Stuff like this is hard to find
even in Delhi or Bombay

Just wear it and step out,
and you'll make the girls stare

Don't even ask me about the boys
. lt's nice

Not special

You show me that one.
. Okay. Here you are

Superb stuff. Just take a look at
the borders. On you, resplendent

Such bad ones! lf you have
something special, show me

l have to wear it forthe wedding.
. Here you are

This is forweddings. lf you aren't
pleased, l'm no connoisseur

Pure gold thread.
On you, looks exotic!

Don't talk rot! lt's not that good

Not that bad either.
l'll keep it

Pack it. And put a good price

You've worn me out

raj, let's have a song from you.
. l can't sing

Coy like a girl? Sing.
. Oh no Grannie...

Sing... please

l'm in love, why am l afraid?

l've loved,
l haven't stolen anything

Why should l weep secretly?

l'll live for love,
l'll die for love

What else have l to do?
. l'm in love, why am l afraid?

You've got your aim all wrong

Forget it, you can't even sing

The loverwill carry his bride away

The bridespeople will be left gaping

The loverwill carry his bride away

What are you doing?
Everyone's out there! Let go!

On one condition.
. What?

Give me a kiss Senorita.
. Are you craZy?

One kiss
. Ma might see!

Let her see

Chutki might see!
. Let her see

Aunt might come by.
. Let her come

This Babuji is going to
get me killed!

What are you wondering Baldev?
There's no countermove

First time in 20 years,
l have you checkmated

Good move, indeed.
This once l'm checkmated

That's check. And mate.
. Wonderful!

Yes Babuji, l'm wonderful

How did he checkmate?

No, l'll put it back.
. No, let me take a look

What happened?

You know what's about
to happen tomorrow?

What?

Tomorrow, l'm going
to be engaged to kuljit

Tomorrow, kuljit will put
a ring on this finger

You know why the engagement ring
is worn on this finger?

Because the artery from this finger
leads straight to the heart

l can't wear anyone else's ring
but yours, raj

lf you want me to walk up in front
of everyone with a ring...

and put it on you, l'll do it.
No problem

All this is a great joke for you,
isn't it? What l'm going through...

you can never imagine
. Look at me

Look

l feel everything Simran, the way
you're pining, your pain, yourtears

But why don't you understand?
This is just the beginning

These people haven't even gotten
to know me properly

l need more time, Simran.
And l need your support

l want you to smile. And listen,
no son of a gun can take you...

away from me, using just a ring.

You're mine, only mine

Chutki might wake up. Go away

Listen

Didi...

Can l say something?
. Go on

l don't like this kuljit one bit.
Don't marry him

lt's very late. Go to sleep

Didi, l like the one
who was on the roof

What did you say?

Didi, isn't raj the one
you met in Europe?

Yes

l like him a lot! You marry him.
. Don't you worry

He's the one l'm marrying

Yes Grannie?
. Pistachios forthe sherbet

Done

raj, where are the flowers?
. You put them beside the staircase

Oh l forgot! Were it not for you,
everything would be topsy.turvy

That's what l'm saying.
The loverwill take his bride away

raj, weren't you with the
groomspeople? Have you switched...

overto the bridespeople?
. Someday l'll have a bride too, no?

Just putting in some practice. Get it?
. Never mind. Get lost

Son of a gun

kuljit is so lucky!
. really

Now give her yours

Simran, offer your hand

Simran, put your hand out

Come on

What's this?

Last night, while taking off
my bangles, l hurt my finger

Never mind. The other hand

''These girls are poison pills''

''These boys are rogues''

''Poison pills.
. rogues''

''Make sure you're painted
with henna''

''Make sure the bride's palanQuin

''To take you away, o'beauty,

''Make sure you come with your face

''lt's a matter of hearts.

''For a signal

''The maidens will go into hiding

''To take you away, o'beauty,

''l'm a young boy;

''lf our hearts are swayed,

''You should've held your heart.
This beauty is magic''

''lf the magic is working,
what's my crime?''

''keep up for me,

''Make sure you're painted with henna;

''Make sure you come with your face
hidden behind the bridegroom's sehra''

Babuji, yesterday you were wonderful!
What a dance! Bested all the others

No Babuji, just a speck of dirt.
Now it's clean

Too few doves, don't you think?
The whites ones...

look... one, two, three

No, maybe same like yesterday

l've decided. Today l'm talking
it overwith raj

ls it something to be ashamed of?
. raj is here

Back? So early?

raj! My precious son! Come here.
We were just talking of you

l've something important to tell you.
. Sure, go on

This ought to be discussed by elders.
But since you're so close to us...

l thought, why not talk to you?
. Tell me

l wish this friendship
to become a relationship

Why not, why not?
. For my daughter, Preeti...

l seek your hand

raj! Betterthink up something fast!
Else, they have you trussed!

raj, have you any objections?
. What...? Oh no. How could l?

My son!
. But l can't take...

such a big decision all by myself.
So you will have to talk to Pops

Pops...?
. Father

See? What a good boy!
. l never do anything...

against my father's wishes.
. No problem. Give me his number

l'll talk to him overtelephone

He's away in America on business.
. Great! Gone to America!

Let ask him to come over.
. No problem

My country, my soil, my raj!
Here l come, son

Step out of the country,
and you'll find everything...

but the matthri yourwife serves up.
. Compliments, lady

Neitherthe language, northe culture.
For one who loves the Ganga...

what's a Thames? So l told raj
to return only with his bride

That's like it!
. Such conviction

What do you do in London?
. Back in London...

London...?
. Forget London. All l know is...

Go East, go West,
Punjab is the best!

Son!

Don't you worry.
l've got it all tied up

You don't even introduce me
to your Daddy

What a wonder! Just this morning,
we were talking about him...

and l find him in the marketplace,
armed with a photo, asking about you

Whatever anyone says, this marriage
was made in Heaven! right, lady?

right.
. right...?

You're strange! You don't need
my permission for a good deed

What do you mean no? Have l ever
refused you anything

How about sweets?
Your son.in.law is waiting

right away!
. Go on!

The wedding must be done right away!
A good deed can't wait

l was thinking of kuljit and raj
getting married at the same time

What was that?

lt's final!
. raj, are you happy?

Give me a sweet! quick!
My son is happy!

Now you're marrying Preeti.
Her brother is kuljit...

the one who's about to marry Simran.
And you love Simran. Not Preeti

What was Preeti doing in London?
. Not Preeti. ln London, it was Simran

Yes, Simran... who's this Simran?
. Pops! Just give up thinking! Please

Can anything be done without
giving it a thought?

l'm here. Everything will be alright.
. By now, it's done already!

Wedding must be done right away!
Good deed can't wait! Why did you come?

lt was a mistake! Won't happen again.
l'll tell them that l forgot...

about your mother's death
anniversary.

Matter laid to rest for a month

May l come in?
. Sure, come right in

You're going to live very long.
raj and l were just talking of you

Sit

You sit too. Milk for me?
Thank you!

Tomorrow's karwa Chauth.
. What's karwa Chauth?

l'd like to keep fast for
raj's well.being. May l...?

Sure, no problem!
. karwa Chauth, Pops...?

karwa Chauth...? No! Never!

Why...?
. We consider it a bad omen...

for a girl to observe the ritual
for her husband before her marriage

Besides my child, we can't discuss
the liaison for a month

lt was during this month
that raj's mother passed away

We have to fix another date forthe
wedding. Let's talk to your father

Ajit...

raj, you know what day
it is tomorrow?

What's it now?
. My first karwa Chauth

l want you to give me water and
food after my fast

Hands off.
. What?

l told you. Hands off

Simran, if you don't love me, just
tell me straight. l'll go away

Then you can marry kuljit. lt's going
to save me this everyday melodrama

ls it something l said?
. But you never say anything, no?

l want you to give me water and
feed me the first morsel...

of food after my fast

Are you out of your mind? You expect
me to make a grand entry saying...

''Hi Simran! l'm your husband.to.be!
Here, take a drink of water''

l don't care!
l'll even die of hunger!

But the first drink of water,
and the first morsel of food,...

you will feed me! Get it?

Just like her father

So why should l be
the butt of the joke?

You're uniQue, Mr Malhotra.
Your dress doesn't indicate...

your affinity to Hindustan.
. The dress has fooled even you?

l keep Hindustan in my heart.
. Wonderful!

Wonderful...?

Ajit was saying you're here
to set up a factory?

The factory is just an excuse.
lf you ask me the truth...

l'm here to choose a bride for raj

Then men are all out
in the outhouse

They say, they don't want
to disturb us on Ladies' Day

Are you keeping a fast too?
. Yes

May you live long, my child.
My kuljit is lucky to get...

a bride like you. Come

Ma.ji, this is my Pops. Father

Your son has cast a spell
over everyone here

That's my son

l'll join you

Pops, this is...
. l know

She can only be Simran

May you live long

No one even watches his step.
Hold this. The flowers...!

''Let it rain flowers!''

''My beloved is here''

kammo, where are the flowers?
Hurry up

l'm raj's father. From London.
. From London...?

Actually from Bhatinda. But l've
been in London for many years. You?

l'm Simran's Aunt.
. You can't be!

What...?
. You could be her sister

Listen... aren't you keeping fast?
. No. l'm still a maiden

Nothing could've been better.
. What...?

One of your flowers.
. Maybe it's for you. keep it

When is the moon going to rise?
l'm starving

l hope it kills you.
Did l ask you to fast?

Eat this on the sly.
No one's looking

Don't

The moon is up.
. Where?

There

''On this night of prayer
forthe wedded woman...''

''l look at the moon,
l pray with folded hands''

''Then l break my fast''

''Give me the water, take your slave
for your Queen''

''Tonight, give me what l desire''

''Come home o'wanderer,
your beloved beckons''

What happened?
. Water

Simi, my child
. Drink water

What happened? What happened to her?
. She swooned

Get up. Come, my child

What happened?
. lt's all right. She just swooned

lt's nothing. Come on, let's eat

She's so fragile, no?

Why are you anxious?
Are you fasting too?

No...
. Then come along

lt isn't easy for him to get away.
Everyone's asking for raj all the time

He won't be able to come, Didi.
Please, eat something

l won't! l'd rather die starving.
. very well, kill yourself

l'm sorry, l'm late. But what to do?
They weren't about to leave me

lt was tough getting away.
Here, eat

Eat it

l said l'm sorry. Now eat.
Else, you'll swoon for real

Chutki, tell him there's no need
for him to worry for me

l was about to faint of hunger.
And there he was, filling his stomach

Anyway, it's my first karwa Chauth.
Why should he get so worked up?

Whether l live or die,
is he bothered?

You don't know this. But raj hasn't
eaten anything all day either

He wanted to break fast with you.
And he told me not to tell you

Sorry raj, but l couldn't
keep shut any longer

Come here

Talking to me?
. Come here

l got carried away.
. No matter, Senorita

ln big places,
such small things happen

My turn Senorita. Feed me

l told you, not to betray my trust.
Simran hasn't forgotten him yet?

lf she remembers,
she'll regret it

What happened to me won't
happen to my daughter

No more sacrifices at every step
as daughter, as sister, as wife

She'll live life as she wishes.
She'll have her share of happiness

Come in

keep this

Ma, this...?
. Not a word! l know everything

l've seen everything. raj is the one
you met in Europe. l know

l also know, the two of you
love each other dearly

l was wrong Simran! My daughter
won't sacrifice her happiness

She isn't going to sacrifice
her love

l know raj, you'll make my daughter
very happy. You have my blessings

Take my daughter away.
Leave

No one here cares for your love.
Take her away from here

l'll take care of everything.
. No Ma.ji

l don't want to hear anything! No!
Please go away from here!

l beg of you, son!
. l will Ma.ji. l'll take her away

Come... sit here

keep this

Ma.ji, l was a little boy
when my mother passed away

But whatever l am today,
is because of her

To this day l haven't forgotten
something she said. She'd say...

''Son, at every turn in life, you'll
find two roads. One right, one wrong''

''The wrong route will be easy, it
will draw you. But the right path...''

''will be hard, with lots of haZards,
a lot many troubles''

''On the wrong road, initially, you
might find success, happiness''

''But in the end, you will lose.
upon the right path, initially...''

''you may trip at every step, you may
face haZards, difficulties.''

But...in the end,
you will always win''

Now you tell me, Ma.ji. Am l
on the right, or in the wrong?

Yourway is absolutely right, son.
But you don't know my husband

And Ma.ji, your husband
doesn't know me

lf l wanted to elope with Simran,
l could've done it already

But l want to be given Simran.
l don't want to steal her

l don't want to take her away
on the sly. l want to do it openly

lf l have come, l'll surely
carry my bride away

But only when Babuji gives me
her hand, of his own volition

Now Simran isn't your problem.
She's my headache

As for you, you have given
your daughter away

Just a matter of time now
before the bride is carried away

ls this crying illness
in the genes?

How strange uncle.ji! Tell me.
. The girl... what's her name...?

Yes Simran. l don't approve
of the match

Why uncle.ji?
. Girl's fine. But no match for you

You're a strong young Jatt d'Punjab!
And this girl is frail, subdued

ls this any match? Match for you
is a girl like a sparkler!

Just come with me to London.
The girls l'll introduce you to...

will drive you craZy!

What's the problem, uncle.ji?
Afterthe wedding, Simran stays here

And we're going to be in London,
meeting your sparklers!

Pull out all the stops!
. You son of a gun

As a little boy, l'd ride out to
the fields on my father's shoulders

Ever since, l struck up a friendship
with these doves. l find it...

so peaceful out here.

l love spending time with the doves

Tell me Babuji, are the doves here
different from the doves in London?

Difference there is. The doves here
know me, they recognise me

They belong to my land.
Even the doves out there are alien

Could it be that you perceive it
differently? Maybe a dove out there...

took to wings from here, from your
land... one who knows you...

one who recognises you.
Maybe you don't recognise him?

What happened?

What are you doing?
. My Ma used to say...

the soil of our land is very
powerful. lt's going to be fine

But this is outrageous!
Who might've done this?

Babuji, look

Let's go.
. Babuji...

Are you still angry about
my beer act?

l was childish.
Won't you forgive me?

l forgot that long ago

l was wrong about you.
You're right

l didn't recognise.
Come, let's go

Ma.ji, what is the matter?
You asked for me?

Son, whateverthe doctor might say,

l know my time's up

Speak of nice things, Ma.ji.
What a thing to say?

Not to be anxious. l'm of the age
when one leaves

l've had a wonderful life.

Son, l have nothing to
complain about

But now that l see Simran...

after years a desire
wells up in my heart.

l want to see Simran married

Before she marries, l wish l don't...
. How can you talk of such things?

Listen son

The bride's palanQuin has just got
to cross over from one house to another

Now that everyone is here, what
difference would it make if...

the wedding is pre.poned to tomorrow?
. Absolutely correct!

The wedding happens tomorrow.
Yes Baldev? right tomorrow

Yes Ma.ji. Tomorrow

We will have to take Simran away
on the sly

Nothing else is going to work.
Don't worry. l have it all worked out

We're taking the morning train out.
l'll wait for you at the station

Somehow orthe other,
just get there with Simran

Whatever happens neXT, we'll see

Are you listening?

l know this isn't yourway. You don't
want to take Simran away like this

But son, it's too late now.
lf you love her...

if you want to spend a lifetime with
her, you must elope. understand?

Please raj, take me away from here!
You don't know my Babuji!

We have to run from here. We must!
. l've come to take you as my bride.

l'll take you only when
your Babuji gives me your hand

What is to happen tomorrow,
l don't know

What l'm going to do tomorrow,
l don't know

But you must trust me

Whatever l do tomorrow,
is going to be for both of us

Do you love me?

Do you trust me?

Then it's just a matter of time
before the bride is carried away, no?

''Oh heart's love''

''Oh my love''

''l give you...''

''to God to keep''

''So strange are the ways
of the world''

''The heart is craZed,
yet so helpless''

''What's left to be heard?
What's left to be said?''

''Just let it lie between us''

''The hide.n.seek is over.
l'm getting married''

''How l wish it doesn't kill you''

Simi, come down, Quick! Time for
the ritual body.painting with henna

''Oh my love''

''Oh my Moon''

''You are my life...''

''my beloved''

l wanted to tell you

You were right.
l failed to recognise

You enter my house,
and before my family...

you play with my honour?

You have deceived me! You have
taken advantage of ourtrust!

You made a joke out of
our cordiality?

How dare you have an affair
with Simran?

Did you imagine you'd marry Simran?
You aren't even worthy of yourself

How can you be worthy of Simran?

l was right about you.
Liars, wastrels like you never improve

They only become worse

No Babuji! No!

Didn't l tell you to take me away?
No one cares for our love!

Didn't l say, let's elope?
. No Simran, don't

You can only run from strangers

From the ones we call our own
Our elders are our parents

All our lives, they've brought us up.
They gave us so much love

About our lives, they can
decide betterthan we can

We have no right to make them sad
forthe sake of our happiness

Babuji is right.
l am a liar, a cheat

Even if l lied for your sake,
a lie is always a lie

Babuji is right.
l'm not worthy of you

And so what if l can see nothing
beyond you?

And so what if l can remember
no one but you?

Babuji is right. l'm a wastrel.

How did l think of marrying you?

So what if this wastrel
loves you like a madman?

Love isn't everything, is it?

Babuji is right, Simran

Babuji is right

Here you are Babuji.
Take your daughter

l didn't come here
to break anyone's heart

l just wanted to win hearts

Maybe l fall short of expectations

Maybe that's why
l couldn't win you over

lf you think kuljit will make
Simran happier...

then you're right.

What's best for Simran,
you know best

Forgive me

Forgive me Preeti

l know l have hurt you

Where's Simran, raj?
raj, where is Simran?

She will come, Pops.
She'll come

Babuji will bring her. Personally

He will have to

l wish to hear no more.
Go away from here

Your son has deceived all of us.
He has shown us where he belongs

l won't let my daughter marry a liar!
. Enough!

l am proud of my son.
Don't incite me to passion

kuljit and raj are fighting
at the station

We must go there!
One might kill the other!

Come on

Come with me Simran

Stop

Let me go, Babuji!
Please let me go

raj means all my life!
Without him, l can't live

Let me go to my raj

Please let me go to my raj

Go Simran

No one can love you more than him

Go my child. Go to your raj

Go on Simran.
Live your life

Go my child, go

ln big places,
such small things happen

The loverwill carry his bride away
