[Narrator] 'These rivers, this land and this sky'
'have stood witness to the ever changing'
'history of the human race.'
'People evolve with time.'
'Many new countries are formed in the course of history.'
'The only thing that has not changed is true love.'
'And 'Kisna' is one such story of pure love.'
"Why did you ruin my sleep?"
"Oh Kisna."
"Why did you ruin my sleep?"
"Oh Kisna."
"Oh Kisna."
"Why did you ruin my sleep?"
Whenever the one-billion strong India celebrates republic day,
there's something special about it.
This year, the government and
the media are focussed on a special guest.
Lady Katherine Williams.
But ironically, she refuses to talk to both government and the press.
In fact, she's even avoiding ordinary photographers!
Lady Katherine, a former minister of the British Parliament,
is today the state guest of India
Because of her interest in rural development and education.
For this, she has brought with her
a charity fund of 500 million pounds.
All the chief ministers around the country have invited her.
But she has refused to see them,
until she meets the prime minister or the president.
Several ministers and Delhi's elite have gathered to welcome her.
While everyone praised her with
lengthy speeches, she just said one word!
What? - Greetings!
Well said.
It remains to be seen who gets her charity fund. - Thanks!
Or if they get it at all! - It's cute!
You are welcome!
Significantly,
she has refused the ministry's invitation to tour India.
Excuse me madam. May I have a sound byte please?
Sorry, we have press meetings later. - Please madam.
Sorry. No interviews now.
Madam, this way. Please come!
[Thunder rumbling]
Hail the Motherland!
Lady Katherine, this is Mr. Prasad from the Ministry of Tourism.
My name is Rajiv Prasad.
The minister has sent me.
I understand!
But why?
My. Rodrigues, please explain to her.
Our government's is in an awkward situation.
I'll try. But if madam doesn't wish to tour,
you can't force her.
It's essential for madam to get to know our country.
Please tell them what I told you.
She wants to know if you want to show her the real India.
What do you mean? We've already invited her for a tour of India.
Yes!
Please explain!
If you want to show her real India, there's only one place. Devprayag!
Devprayag?
[Coughs]
Devprayag, a holy place in Uttaranchal.
Where two rivers, Bhagirath and Alaknanda merge
to form the holiest river Ganges,
above Hrishikesh and Haridwar.
So, what do you think?
[Applause]
This is from all of us.
Greetings. - Greetings.
Make sure you are always alert.
Oh! You got here too!
Excuse me madam! Just one question?
Why have you selected this most neglected place to visit?
Because this is the most neglected place.
But then this, for me is India!
[Applause]
Kisna!
[Folk music]
That was wonderful! Here! May I? - Thank you.
Good night and thank you again.
How rude is that?!
Either she doesn't know India or doesn't want to know India.
It's all a charade!
I know.
I know India very well.
More than you, the real India.
It's not a charade.
India has a thousand stories to tell.
But I've just one story to share.
Now even I can't hold myself back.
Hello! Manish?
Do you see that bungalow?
Now a hotel I guess.
It was my home.
My birthplace.
Lady Katherine says,
I was born...
Do you see that bungalow there? It was my home.
In 1930,
I was born here.
In India.
Before 1947,
during British rule, my father and grandfather grew up in India.
My father was the deputy commissioner of Pauri Garhwal.
But the villagers hated him.
The land's fertile and self-sufficient.
The fires of revolution for independence
may rage across the rest of the country,
but this place is like an isolated island.
Mister has arrived! Mister is here!
Mister is here.
Good morning. - Good morning.
Well done!
Good morning madam.
Katherine! Where you going?
Change your clothes first, please.
Hey there!
Kathy baby, my sweetheart. This is for you.
Thank you. Where's Kisna?
Kisna! He is where he is supposed to be.
There he is. - Thank you.
Kisna!
Kisna!
What do you want? - Kisna, I have brought you a gift.
Gift!
What have you brought for me?
[Frog croaks]
[Gasps]
[Laughs]
Go away. I don't like such jokes.
Let me work.
I have brought you your real present.
Now what is it?
Thank you.
You look like an officer.
Then salute the officer.
Salutations, sir.
Do you think I am a stupid?
This is a girl's hat and not a boy's.
[Laughs]
"Sing in a tune..."
"Sing a song that touches my heart."
My grandpa's calling you for the prayer ceremony!
I can't come. I'm at work!
Lakshmi, come with us!
"Let it be a charming melody."
Katherine, now it is your turn.
"Sing in a tune..."
"Sing a song that touches my heart."
Father. Father...
What is the matter, dear?
You know Kisna, - Yes?
When Katherine comes, he sends me away.
Really?
No, dear. He is my student. He can't do such a thing.
But he does it.
And Katherine also braids her hair just like I do mine.
She copies me a lot.
[Laughs]
My dear, you like Kisna so much!
You should focus on dance and music.
And have faith in friendship.
Then you will see how he comes to you.
Kisna doesn't care for me.
Don't worry. I will take care of it.
Close your eyes.
Move to the South.
Now open your eyes.
See who it is.
Can you see Kisna?
What do you say?
[Laughs]
This is your English lesson book.
Learn it by Monday.
Thank you, ma'am. I've completed this homework too.
Oh! That's good!
May I enter the piano room to look at the piano?
Of course! Why not?
Thank you. - Come with me!
Certainly not!
I don't want any useless Indian in that room!
Peter!
No damn riff-raff! - Peter!
Not in front of children!
Don't indulge them! Not in my house!
Do you understand my dear?
Every religion teaches the path of love and peace.
That's what our holy book says.
What if someone doesn't follow this path?
Then it's our duty to fight with him.
Fight? Even if he's your own master?
Be it your master or brother, the fight for justice is righteousness.
Got that Kisna?
Shankar, don't just read half of the holy book.
Did you get me?
Look mom.
My sister Shanta's moulding her children into scholars.
Whereas to fight the British we need warriors!
We have you Bhairav, leader of warriors!
Shankar's following your footsteps!
Yes, my Shankar's not a slave of the British like you and Kisna.
There you go! Why do you always fight over the same issue?
Beckett's routed the canal water to the wretched Prince Raghuraj!
I'll skin him alive one day!
Even if he's your master!
Who can cure your desire for bloodshed?!
Beckett banned all your illegal trade.
So you're claiming to be a leader of the poor! A revolutionary!
I know what's on your mind very well!
From here to there and then here.
And here is Pauri Garhwal's canal.
It belongs to my father King Pratap Singh.
Mr Beckett, we helped your government make so much money.
We even helped your army get woods from these forests.
And here you are.
You are not helping us protect the canal.
Bhairo's thugs are stealing my water.
And you...
No one would dare to disobey my orders.
Be sure, Prince Raghuraj.
My police are looking after those thugs.
That's just the reassurance I wanted.
Listen to the melody and follow me, just like you did outside.
Okay.
[Piano playing]
[Flute playing]
Wonderful!
Great! Kisna!
[Vase smashed] - [Gasps]
I've come to the conclusion that Katharine must go!
Mrs. Jones! Get Katharine's things ready!
She is to leave for Delhi!
Today and now!
Peter... - I don't want any arguments!
Mother didn't have the courage to go against father's decision.
I was packed off to England the same day.
But my childhood was attached to scents of this village.
In England, my Aunt Margaret put me in a public school.
But I never forgot Devprayag, Kisna and his flute.
Time went by.
In 1947, the British government started talking of independence,
with Gandhi and Nehru.
During those days,
on my mother's insistence,
my father called me back to India for vacations.
On reaching India, my happiness knew no bounds!
Nothing had changed, neither the villages nor the mountains.
Nor the rivers or the people!
It felt like childhood days again!
Hi, Peter!
So beautiful!
Thank you Prince Raghuraj!
We are a family now. All this...
Katherine.
Katherine.
Katherine.
Where are you going?
Shriram!
[Horse neighing]
Shriram!
Shriram!
Oh Shriram!
My sweetheart! - Recognize me?
How can I ever forget you?
This flower reminded me of you!
How sweet! - My child!
How is Kisna?
He has grown up too!
What does he do?
He finished studying, works with his brother and teaches children.
Did Kisna miss me?
Yes, but...
What happened? Tell me.
Since you'd left, everything has changed.
The people, the government, the politics. Love has disappeared.
There is hatred all around.
Especially against your father.
Peace is returning to all of India, except here.
What about Kisna?
Even flowers get affected in a sandstorm.
And what about Lakshmi?
She is still fond of Kisna.
"Shiva exists within me. Bramha exists within me."
"Vishnu exists within me. Krishna exists within me."
"Why would I visit a temple?"
"This land and this sky, this mountain and this ocean,"
"I find my God there."
"Why would I visit a temple?"
"Shiva exists within me. Bramha exists within me."
"Vishnu exists within me. Krishna exists within me."
"Why would I visit a temple?"
[Music]
"This land and this sky, this mountain and this ocean,"
"I find my God there."
"Why would I visit a temple?"
"I am the Infinite Reality."
"I am the Infinite Reality."
"I am the Infinite Reality."
"I am the Infinite Reality."
Beckett's daughter, Katherine is back!
I've heard she's beautiful. - Want to marry her?
Crazy? Who'd want to marry a white girl?
[Laughs]
Where are you going?
I'll be right back brother!
Kisna!
Recognize me?
Yes! You're Ms. Katherine Beckett!
Daughter of our master Mr. Peter Beckett!
Ms. Beckett!
I know Kisna. My father has been unfair.
Your father told me everything.
He told me everything. Not good, isn't it?
Kisna, does this politics mean
an end to our friendship?
[Flute playing]
Beautiful!
Guess, whose flute is this?
It's mine.
When your father
sent me away from India, far from you
away from all the friends.
This...
How did you learn this tune? Sir used to play it.
As you learned my mother's piano notes.
Do you know I have even written a song on that tune.
Really? - Yes.
You speak fluent Hindi! - Absolutely.
Beautiful! - Very beautiful!
[Laughs]
Remember this?
Jaggery. You used to eat it like a baby.
You still eat it like a baby! Give me this flute!
It's mine! - Now it belongs to me!
Fine, keep it!
Do you remember? That's Devprayag there!
Kisna, what's the song you've written?
Want to hear it? - Certainly!
"We're here, this moment together."
"Don't know what tomorrow holds."
[Music]
"We may, may not come together."
"We may, may not see forever."
"Nothing survives forever but love."
"A love that will always echo on this land and the sky above."
"We're here, this moment together."
"Don't know what tomorrow holds."
"We may, may not come together."
"We may, may not see forever."
"Nothing survives forever but love."
"A love that will always echo on this land and the sky above."
[Music]
[Crying]
I understand, dear.
I know what you are going through.
It has only been a day since she returned.
And he has gone out with her the whole day.
He went to Devprayag with her.
Like they are soul mates.
Dear, you are mistaken.
Fine, I will figure something out.
Will you marry Kisna?
Will you? - Yes.
Poor child!
Mother, is it true that my marriage...
Is fixed to Lakshmi, son.
And we are all very happy.
Can I say something?
I am not yet ready to marry.
I have to do a lot of things for the school.
Kisna, why don't you just
go to Shankar and tell him
to break the promise made to Dadaguru.
No, son.
Dadaguru has given a gift as well.
You can't let them down.
The day after tomorrow will be your engagement.
And you will be married in the next month.
Kisna, come on. Let's go in the ring.
Hurry up. Uncle would be waiting for us.
This is a lovely horse!
My dear, I've bought this horse for you!
We'll go horse riding every evening!
Why for me?
Because I love you!
But you're like my uncle!
Like an uncle. Not really one.
I'm crazy about you!
Just say yes once. I'll marry you! - Please don't touch me!
Katherine, I love you!
I love you not!
[Whistles]
Horse neighing]
Bad luck uncle!
Katherine, good news.
Yes? - Come on!
Sriram, please.
Little miss, tomorrow morning is Kisna's engagement ceremony.
What? - He is getting engaged to Lakshmi.
To Lakshmi?
Yes, little miss! It's true! The decision was recently taken.
Last night, Mr. Shastri came to us
with the proposal for this marriage.
We agreed.
We couldn't have asked for anything better.
isn't it my dear?
Congratulations Shriram. - Thank you very much.
Sir!
Sir, may I have the honour of inviting you,
to the engagement ceremonial function tomorrow?
Of course, we'll come.
My father may be Deputy Commissioner.
But we're your family Shriram.
Apart from that, it's my best friend's engagement!
We'll definitely be there!
[Music]
"Put henna on the fair one's hands."
"Make her body fragrant with sandalwood paste."
"Adorn a jewel on the moon like forehead."
"Give her a bracelet studded with diamonds and pearls."
"Put henna on the fair one's hands."
"Make her body fragrant with sandalwood paste."
[Music]
"It has come."
"That day has come."
"The day that I had dreamt about."
"every night, my love."
"My love, oh my sweetheart."
"oh my sweetheart."
"Taking fragrance from flowers, colour from flower buds."
"The beloved's bride decked up leisurely."
"Her lips look a lovely red."
"My girl's looking exquisite."
"Like the sun's rays filtering through clouds."
"The moment your bridegroom looks at you."
"He'll fall in love with you."
"The most awaited day is here."
"The day when your charming bride enters our home."
"Our home, beloved."
[Music]
"My beloved had come home."
"I couldn't control myself."
"I went crazy."
"The body was swaying, the heart was crying."
"The body and heart are as if on fire."
"Every part of the body is melting gradually."
"I am being overcome by colour, gradually."
"My lips are burning, what kind of thirst is this?"
"It has been aroused."
"The eyes have become foggy and there's fire in the heart."
"There's fire."
"In my breaths, what kind of storm is this?"
"There is restlessness and a rising desire."
"It has come, that day has come."
"I've been counting days to this day."
"Oh my beloved."
"Oh my beloved."
"Oh my beloved."
[Music]
"The handsome groom of the beautiful bride."
"Diamonds, pearls, emeralds look cheap compared to you."
"Become Lord Krishna and take away everyone's sorrows."
"May you be blessed with abundant wealth."
"The handsome groom of the beautiful bride."
"Diamonds, pearls, emeralds look cheap compared to you."
"Oh Kisna!"
"Oh my Kisna!"
[Music]
"Oh my Kisna!"
"Oh my Kisna!"
"Oh my beloved."
[Music]
[Laughs]
I've never seen anything like that!
I think you embarrassed everyone!
You danced and shouted out so loud!
My mother was annoyed by my behaviour.
I told her that Kisna is my best friend.
She said he was a friend. Nothing more.
He's Lakshmi's fiancé now.
This friendship won't be appreciated by anyone.
Not even Lakshmi.
She said that we were different people.
The whole country hates the British and they always will.
Until we leave.
Turn it! Great! Hold it properly!
Look up, into my eyes. That's it!
Turn it! Save yourself! Great! Turn it this way! Yes!
Shall we continue tomorrow? - Don't flee!
Shall I fight with Gaurang?
What can I do? I can't move the sword.
Teach this flute player! He wants to be a warrior! - Okay.
Come on! Omkara!
Earlier, a couple of people used to die after drinking that water.
Today, five people have died!
When will the day dawn when a Bhagat Singh is born?
One who can teach these British a lesson!
I might not be a renowned patriot,
but I am Shankar Singh.
Death for Commissioner Beckett!
Death for Commissioner Beckett!
Death for Commissioner Beckett!
Death for Commissioner Beckett!
Death for Commissioner Beckett!
These are 5 dead bodies.
Three men, a child and an old lady.
All died after drinking water from that dirty lake
that was given to us as alms!
What can I do?
Nothing!
Now, we'll take care of everything!
Mr. Beckett! From today,
people who die because of the water and plague will be cremated here,
in front of your office!
Phunkara!
Stop this.
Stop this nonsense!
Guards!
Guards! Stop these wild dogs!
Fire! - [Gunshot]
Reload, aim and shoot.
Oh God!
Father!
Down with... - Commissioner Beckett!
Down with... - Commissioner Beckett!
Down with... - Commissioner Beckett!
Bhairo Singh you poisoned those five people,
and then turned the villagers against Beckett!
What do you want to gain from this?
I want 100 acres of land.
Revolution is not my aim.
It is business for me.
Make Beckett understand that.
He wants to arrest you.
And he has gathered enough evidence against you.
'This is the external service of B.B.C.'
'4th of June, 1947.'
'There was a radio announcement on the morning of 4th June 1947.'
'Lord Mountbatten announced'
'the final decision of the British Government.'
'That on the August 15, India will be freed.'
'And every British officer has to handover the charge'
'to the Indians and return to England.'
'There's been a meeting in Delhi.'
'During this period, the discussion to create Pakistan had also begun.'
'To consider the issues arising from the decision.'
'Apart from Lord Mountbatten and Mr Gandhi, Sardar Patel,'
'Mr Jinnah and Mr Nehru also took part in the discussions.'
Partition!
'Mahatma Gandhi request to all...'
The price India has to pay.
[Sanskrit chants]
[Screams]
[Screams]
[Screams]
[Glass smashed]
Who's there? - Hey, stop! Stop!
You came quietly!
Did anyone see you?
[Gasps]
Come on!
Mrs. Jones! Mother! - Security! Where are you?
Jennifer! Where are you?!
'Katherine!'
[Gunshot]
Hail divine Mother!
Peter!
[Screams]
[Gasps]
No!
Katherine!
Katherine!
[Music]
[Bell rings]
[Katherine crying]
Katherine! - [Gasps]
Katherine!
[Crying]
They... they...
I couldn't
Katherine, please! - My father, my mother.
Any news about Kisna?
I searched the entire village but couldn't find Kisna.
Phunkara is still unconscious.
'He is younger...'
'Do one thing,'
'go and find him.'
'Catch...'
'What will'
'happen if...'
Don't cry.
Everything will be fine.
[Crying]
Kisna.
You have the answer to the question in your eyes.
You've read the holy book since childhood.
To protect an innocent girl is not only reverence to God,
but also the foremost duty of a man!
My brother? - So what?
Be it your brother or mine, the act is unjust!
Right?
A fight against injustice is righteousness!
This girl deserves justice!
You have my blessings!
Take this girl to a British Cantonment or Delhi.
It's my order!
Mother, where are you? - Coming!
"Aham Brahmasmi!"
"Aham Brahmasmi!"
"Aham Brahmasmi!"
"Aham Brahmasmi!"
"Aham Brahmasmi!"
"Aham Brahmasmi!"
"Aham Brahmasmi!"
"Aham Brahmasmi!"
Lakshmi! I saw them flee together.
He got engaged to you under family pressure.
He eloped with her!
[Distant Screeching]
Mother, he didn't even ask you before he chose this perilous path!
I don't know what's right or wrong!
But I know that only one of your sons will survive!
No, son!
Choose to pray for whoever you want to!
Shankar!
That girl's life means our death!
Nandu, sing your song!
"Sing a song that touches my heart."
"Let's decide whose songs are better."
"I'll sing such songs that you'll have to agree."
"That my songs are better than any song can be."
"Sing, you sing a tune that touches my heart."
[Music]
Kisna, the men hunting for you came here and left for Haridwar.
I knew you'd be here any moment.
I think we should stay with you for a few days and then move ahead.
With me? - No way!
My orthodox in-laws, my wife won't welcome you!
They'll throw me out of their house!
Listen, Nandu. - Yes!
I have a plan
that will let us stay at your place without anyone knowing.
What's that?
Mother, the last time, Shriram had come as Ramlal.
Now, he's coming as Kisna.
Here he comes!
Look!
Guests are like God!
She's so beautiful, fair, blue eyes!
Just like an Englishwoman!
She is British!
Really?! - See?
My respects to you. - God bless you!
Touch her feet!
[Groans] - Oh mother, did you get hurt?
I'm so sorry!
She's newly married. She doesn't know how to touch feet!
Please forgive her, she'll learn. - She will.
She'll learn. He says so, right?
She will. It's a love marriage.
She's the daughter of a British officer and he's an Indian officer.
As soon as they got the chance, they got married!
Her father disowned her and returned to England!
But she's adapting to Indian ways!
Isn't this what you told me? - Yes!
Her name is Gangotri!
How long will they stay here?
Two days.
Yes! - Rukmini!
Yes.
Come, get father's blessings. You, too, child.
Father, they... - My respects to you.
Bless you!
Touch his feet! - Give the trunk to me!
Bless you with a happy married life!
He is Sitaram.
Take this! May God bless you with a son!
Bless you.
They seem tired, show them your room.
I'm giving them everything. Clothes, linen, jewellery, my room!
We're used to sleeping on the terrace! Right?
Gangotri! Kisna! I thought you were fast asleep!
Mother sent some milk for you.
Milk! - Why?
Why milk?
Haven't you explained our customs to her?
You tell her, sister-in-law.
Okay!
Gangotri, newlyweds have milk.
So that...
What?
So that they produce a healthy child!
With a glass of milk?
Yes, it works!
Kisna! Explain to her!
You!
Where are you?
I want to talk with you.
That's so absurd!
It's not absurd, these are our customs.
Don't bother!
Let's have milk! - What?!
We'll have it together!
Good night! Just go to sleep!
Don't mull over all this.
But I want to have it! - Why?
Because I feel like, not to produce a child!
[Chanting mantras]
You tell her! - You tell her!
The superintendent can't trace Katherine.
But Jennifer has been found.
[Laughs]
I want Katherine, not Jennifer!
She's my dream girl! Find her in 24 hours!
Understand? - As you command.
Get out now!
But you've promised to make me your princess!
Come, I'll fulfil your dream.
Find Katherine or you won't remain alive!
[Gunshot]
[Chanting mantras]
Kisna, what's that?
That?
It's a Hindu family
that's here to immerse a relatives ashes in the river.
Why?
His soul will attain salvation this way.
Or?
Or in his next life,
he can fulfil a desire that he couldn't in this life.
Wow!
Do you have a wish?
[Laughs]
I told you he's been under that white girl's spell since childhood!
He eloped with her making his own family his enemies!
Shall I say one thing to you? - What?
Your love has a flaw. - What flaw?
I'll tell you. Your love has no faith!
True love implies faith, patience and sacrifice. Not jealousy!
Yes! I'm jealous and will remain so!
Jealousy is a part of love. You always take Kisna's side!
Sometimes I feel you aren't my grandpa!
Always harping about what's wrong with me!
That's why when worshipping the Ganges, these flowers... Brother!
[Chanting mantras]
What happened? - Someone might cast an evil eye on you!
I swear, Kisna hasn't come here.
If he had, I would've told him what he's doing is wrong!
All right, look out for him!
Let him know, he has offended his brother, uncle and family!
He rebelled!
The rascal!
He has put all our lives in danger!
That too for a white girl!
What he did wasn't right!
Inform uncle Shambhu if he comes, we'll get to know.
Let's go! - Okay.
Pray to God that I don't ever confront my brother!
I can fight with anyone except my brother!
I understand. Don't worry. Stay another day.
Let them move ahead!
Anyway today is River Ganges' festival.
There's also a performance by our dance group.
My dear poet, did you write a song for our show?
The tune you were humming just now? - Yes.
I've written a song to that tune.
Just as I thought!
Wait, Rukmini!
I got the song.
What song did you write, Kisna?
About Lord Krishna and Radha.
Who are they?
Radha and Lord Krishna!
In India, all lovers are seen as Lord Krishna and Radha.
Do we get to join this celebration?
No!
It's not safe anywhere, except in Shivpuri.
I'll show you the celebration from here. Okay? - Okay.
"He is versatile, good looking."
"He is naughty, lives by the Yamuna river."

"She's sleepless in love"
"She's unaware of the world."
"They say she's head over heels in love."
"Forgetting every pain, she meets Kisna."
"She just chants his name all the time."
"Lives every moment of her life for Kisna."
"That's Radha for you." - "That's Radha for you."
"That's Radha for you."

[Chanting mantras]
Bhairav's men have left Haridwar and reached Faizabad.
"That's Kisna for you."
We should go to Haridwar and take the 7 o'clock train to Delhi.
You take the bus.
Katherine and I will reach by horsecart.
Just as I thought!
[Screams]
[Laughs]
Scared? - Yes.
Are you alright now? - Yes.
You're leaving today?
Here is a gown and shawl for you!
Thank you!
What did you like most in Hrishikesh?
The Ganges! - The Ganges.
Kisna! - Kisna!
And you!
Why me?
Your love. Your sacrifice. - What sacrifice?
You gave me your bedroom, clothes, everything that was yours.
No big deal!
It is a big deal!
We don't do so much.
That too for a stranger!
Well, that's India for you!
That's why I love India so much and I'm sad I'm leaving.
I know why you're leaving. - How do you know?
My husband Nandu can't lie and I knew
that Kisna and you aren't married.
Kisna's ensuring that you reach home safely.
I stayed quiet because they're on the right path.
Right?
But you lived with us like an Indian. That is what I liked.
But now I feel sad.
I feels like my own sister is leaving me.
Rukmini!
You're so good.
I promise I'll never forget you.
It's time to leave, not to cry.
"I go restless without you."
"I go restless without you."
"Oh prince of Brijwasi..."
"I go restless without you."
"Oh prince of Brijwasi..."
"I go restless without you."
"I go restless without you."
"Oh prince of Brijwasi..."
"I go restless without you."
Sir, we've reached the station.
"Oh prince of Brijwasi..."
You stay right here. I'll get the tickets.
Alright.
Can I get two tickets for Delhi? - Yes.
Excuse me.
Yes?
Miss Katherine?
Yes.
Your mother is waiting for you. - My mother?
Yes.
Where is she? - She's here. In the car.
Katherine!
Mother!
Mother!
I've been so worried.
Here's your ticket.
Thank God!
Let's go.
Stop the car. - No.
He saved me. He's taking me to Delhi.
Stop it, Katherine. For goodness' sake!
Prince Raghuraj is the only man I trust now.
Kisna!
Katherine!
Stop the car! I can't leave him!
Katherine! - Let me go.
Katherine! What's wrong with you?
Katherine!
Raghuraj, stop the car! - No!
Katherine!
Kisna!
What have you done, Shanta?
If you'd told me earlier, I would've found a way out.
A huge war will begin between the brothers.
Your ruthless brother Bhairav has sworn to get them killed.
Even Lakshmi has left in search of Kisna, with Vasu.
She's crazy! Absolutely crazy!
[Music]
"Tell me something."
"Tell me something."
"I discover something new about you every time."
"Either you blush or you strut proudly."
"Why are you so different all the time?"
"Why are you so crazy?"
"Whenever I meet you my heart misses a beat."
"At times you stop me. At times you stare at me from a distance."
"Why do you ask me why my stole is slipping?"
"So tell me."
"Why are you so crazy?"
"When you look for me..."
"The strands of hair fly across your face."
"When you look for me..."
"The strands of hair fly across your face."
"Why do the eyes meet and look away?"
"These eyes are restless. They keep fluttering."
"Whoever looks into these eyes will lose his peace."
"Think about why my heart is flowing with love."
"Please tell me why you are so silly!"
"My heart swells with love."
"Please come back, my love."
Is it true that Kisna and Katherine stayed at your place?
Of course. After all, Kisna is Nandu's childhood friend.
But he... - I'll tell you.
They enjoyed their stay.
We gave them a separate room.
They lived like a married couple.
Married couple? - Yes.
Just like Radha and Lord Krishna.
Katherine looked like Radha.
Do you know, she even bathed in the Ganges?
Where have they gone now?
They left for...
No, I won't tell you.
My husband has forbidden me from telling anyone.
I told you all this only because you're Kisna's master's daughter.
Or I would not have told you anything.
You might not know
but I am Kisna's future wife. - What?
I have chalked out the route to Delhi.
But she found her mother. What's there to worry?
Yes, but Prince Raghuraj is also with them.
With him around, Katherine is in even greater danger.
On the right side,
there's a guesthouse of a prince from Tikampur.
It could belong to Raghuraj.
Tikampur. - Yes.
You stay here. I'll get back to you if needed.
This is disgusting!
This is a *** of faith!
This is betrayal!
Is speaking the truth betrayal?
All I'm saying is I want to marry Katherine.
I want to protect her from all troubles.
Shame! Shame on you!
She's your friend's daughter.
Relationships do change.
Don't you trust me? - Not at all.
No. I don't trust any Indian.
But I'm half British.
My mother was British. My father married twice.
You're neither British nor Indian. You're a wretched man.
You two are very angry right now, but...
Who's there?
My respects to Your Highness.
Kisna!
I'm Kisna.
How did you get here?
I'm their servant's son.
My mother sent me to protect them.
I like your intentions and thoughts.
Welcome, loyal son of servant.
Thank you, lord. May I sit here?
Sit on my head! - I can't commit such a blunder.
A chair will do. Shall I sit?
Thank you. I'm very hungry!
Eat as much as you want.
How do you intend taking my fiancé away from me?
My mother says that rich, corrupt people have many things...
Money, power, people's support, servants, everything.
But to fight the corrupt, rich people, the poor need only one asset.
What's that?
Determination.
So you're determined to fight me. Right?
Yes.
Here?
Absolutely!
Now? - Yes!
How?
Like this. - Raja! [Screams]
Let's go, ma'am! Come on, run! - Raja!
Let's go.
[Dogs barking]
Raja! - What happened, Your Highness?
Catch them, you idiot!
Kisna.
Should I call a doctor? - Shut up!
Fire the gun!
Fire it, my friend!
Looks like your aim has gone bad.
[Laughs]
Get out from here!
You have the fate of a loser!
You're pointing a gun on the saving grace of your destiny?!
That, too, half naked!
Who did this to you?
Who are you?
Me?!
Have you heard of the cuckoo of India,
the famous courtesan of Lucknow, Naima Begum?
She's the prince's... - Queen of dreams!
I'm her favourite aide.
My name's Jumman Masum Kishti.
Here's a letter for the prince from Naima Begum.
What letter?
Idiot! I'll explain!
Naima Begum is performing at the palace of Nawab Shaukat tonight.
A celebration to woo the beauty, Naima Begum.
Let's see where the lightning strikes.
Here's the letter! Ask him if he can come or not.
The prince isn't keeping well.
Just mention Naima Begum and he'll feel better in no time.
And you are?
Visit any lane of Lucknow and mention my name, Jumman.
They'll kiss your hand.
Is that so? - But wear your pants.
A few rogues still hang around.
Here's the letter for the prince.
Okay, I'll deliver this message. - Straight to him.
It's up to him if he wants to come. - Come, Ali.
"With a message of love in my heart..."
"I carry the baggage of death."
Uncle, Kisna has gone towards Faizabad.
I'll skin him too.
On our way to Delhi, uncle Jumman.
Don't sweet talk me. Get down!
I saw you getting into my vehicle.
I was certain that you were escaping from the prince.
I thought I'd sort it out later. Get down!
You did the right thing.
These are two homeless women and I'm unarmed.
Now only you can save their lives!
Me?
From Delhi to Lucknow, you're famous for your good deeds.
I've always been a rascal. Where did you hear this?
He's charming you. - Yes, I know.
One has to charm even Gods in times of crisis, right?
Charming! Okay, charm me. Tell me your tale.
If your tale is genuine, I'll help you.
Or I'll drop you on the way. I have to go to Faizabad.
Got it!
Your story has truth and pain as well.
Child. - Yes.
Please tell them to do exactly as I say. - Yes.
First, I'll take them to the servant quarters near the palace.
The quarters near the Nawab's palace.
Then whatever Allah wishes. Explain to them.
We understood, Jumman.
You didn't tell me that they speak Hindi too. - [Chuckles]
I hope I didn't blabber. Thank God I didn't swear.
Madam, I also speak English. A little.
There's a celebration tonight at the Nawab's palace.
I can give you shelter but there are two problems.
The Nawab hates the British.
That rogue Raghuraj maybe there too.
Only one person can save us. Naima Begum.
No worries!
I'll take you safely to Delhi tomorrow morning.
Make sure that the guestroom is properly embellished.
Jumman, where have you been? I've been looking for you.
I'm looking for myself.
This is Saira, elder wife of Nawab Akhtar of Azamgadh.
This is their daughter Azima and their son-in-law Aslam.
Guests of Naima Begum are welcome.
Make sure that they're taken care of.
Surely. - Coming, Salma!
Excuse me. - No problem.
Please introduce us to Naima Begum.
Wait, I have to check her disposition first.
Meanwhile, relax.
Is this a safe place?
I hope so.
Naima Begum. [Clears throat]
Jumman, why is your voice so rough today?
Well...
I'm aware of every nuance of your voice.
Very true.
You want to give them shelter under my name? Right?
Yes.
You have nothing to hide.
Instead you should be proud of it.
Actually, they're in deep trouble.
Ali told me the entire story. I'd like to meet them.
As you wish!
There were a few guests here. - I don't know.
Welcome.
Sir.
It's indeed a star studded night. - The star has arrived.
Naima Begum has been asking for you.
Here I am. Just for her.
Your eye?
Only one is injured.
Even if both were injured I would've come for Naima.
You are?
She's my new wife Husna.
Greetings! - Greetings!
You're fortunate. - Please come in.
Where have they gone?
They're sitting in the women's section!
He?
He has been seated too. At a special place.
Oh no!
They've been seated in separate sections.
So?
The problem is that Prince Raghuraj is here too.
Only the envious make a celebration brighter.
Naima Begum.
You take care of the lovers.
I'll look after the envious.
Leave now.
"Why do you hide"
"behind veils?"
"Neither do you hide yourself completely..."
"Nor do you come to the fore."
"Listen to us."
"Veils won't be lifted."
"You won't see the glow of love."
"Listen to us."
"Listen to us."
"The veil won't be lifted."
"You won't see the glow of love."
"Listen to us. The veil won't be lifted."
"You won't see the glow of love."
"You're on the other side of the veil,"
"yet the glow reaches your patrons. You can't stop it."
[Music]
"Listen to us. The veil won't be lifted."
"You won't see the glow of love."
"Listen to us."
"Listen to us."
"You won't see the glow of love."
"You won't see the glow of love."
[Music]
"What kind of a tale is this?"
"What kind of a tale is this?"
"Neither did you say a thing nor did I."
"Where does this lead?"
"What kind of a tale is this?"
[Music]
"Your will is overwhelming."
"Thank you."
"What is this overwhelming desire of yours?"
"We'll chant your name."
[Music]
"What do I say? You're so extraordinary."
"What do I say? You're so extraordinary."
"The further you go away from me, the closer I feel you are."
"the closer I feel you are."
"The closer I feel you are."
"Even if I'm not destined to be with you..."
"Even if I'm not destined to be with you..."
"I think of you as the purpose of my life."
"I think of you as the purpose of my life."
"Listen to us. The veil won't be lifted."
"You won't see the glow of love."
"You're the love of my life."
"You're the love of my life."
"Show me your face once, lift the veil once."
"Let me hide you in this heart and in my breath."
"Let me capture your image forever,"
"for the loneliness that I have brought with me."
"for the loneliness that I have brought with me."
"When I am lonely, when these chains"
"become heavy, these images will be with me."
"I'll look at them and live, I'll consume every poison."
"Wherever you go, wherever you stay..."
"The beats of my heart will echo there."
"The beats of my heart will echo there."
"The beats of my heart will echo there."
"The beats of my heart will echo there."
"The beats of my heart will echo there."
"You're on that side of the veil."
"But your glow will come filtering,"
"through to the lovers, it won't stop."
[Music]
Your Highness!
Win the heart of a woman with love, not with a gun.
It's a personal issue, stay out of it.
What if I don't?
Interesting!
My admirer now wants my life?
Kill me, but save yourself first.
Just turn and see.
Kisna!
Alas! This weapon.
Thank you, Kisna!
He's under my custody and you're free.
I'll pray for your safety.
Thank you, Naima Begum. - Welcome.
Please leave, Kisna. Jumman's waiting outside.
Thank you, Begum.
Your Highness.
Don't look at life through one eye.
Mother, it's beautiful! - It's yours.
No one will stop Naima Begum's carriage.
You'll reach safely. - Thank you, Kisna.
Here's some food and water for the journey.
Let's leave.
Jumman, thank you.
Thank you!
Thank you! - Enough!
Madam!
India is a poor country.
But we Indians have a big heart.
We survive because of love and relationships.
It doesn't matter if we go hungry.
For us, love is life.
Hey, why are you crying?
"I'll miss you my childhood friend."
"Or else the world will laugh at me."
"Or else the world will laugh at me."
"We're here at this moment..."
Come on.
Push it with all your strength!
Come on.
Pull harder! Kisna! - C'mon!
Come on.
Come on!
C'mon! - [Horses' Hooves]
Jumman, - help!
Katherine! - Katherine!
[Horse neighing]
[Gunshot]
Kisna! Mother!
Katherine!
Don't worry, Kisna will take care of her.
Kisna! Mother! - Katherine!
Kisna!
Kisna!
Mother!
Get off me!
Katherine!
Stop, Katherine!
Kisna! Stop!
[Gunshot]
Kisna!
Kisna!
Kisna!
Katherine, don't stop!
Go ahead! Katherine, don't stop!
Katherine!
[Horse neighing]
Make sure you find them.
Make sure you find them.
[Groans]
We'll search for your mother in the morning.
Don't worry. Do you think I'll die?
No.
Don't speak, just sleep.
They're hiding somewhere in these jungles.
[Wind gusting]
"Come, let me feel you with my arms again."
"Softly you whisper, you are my life."
"My best friend!"
"A moment is all I'm searching for."
"Just a moment of love with you."
"A moment so special, so beautiful."
"In a moment my wish comes true."
"Save me from the future, take me back in time."
"Words, they have no meaning without you in my life."
"Let me walk on the rainbow in times of sweet surprise."
"To the moment when I was a little girl that had you in my life."
"Time has no answers or words left unsaid."
"For words that have no meaning, there's no road ahead."
[Music]
"A moment is all I'm searching for."
"Just a moment of love with you."
"A moment special and beautiful."
"In a moment, my wish comes true."
"I'm looking for a reason to smile once again."
"Through every changing season, the pain I can't explain."
"I see the magic all around, shining down at me."
"With you my life could be so right, if only it could be."
"Maybe this world is a mystery to me."
"Maybe this world is a mystery to me,"
"wish you could be here for eternity."
"A moment is all I'm searching for."
"Just a moment of love with you."
"A moment special and beautiful."
"In a moment my wish comes true."
[Music]
"A moment is all I'm searching for."
"Just a moment of love with you."
"A moment special and beautiful."
"In a moment my wish comes true."
[Music]
"My wish comes true!"
[Music]
"We're here this moment."
"Who knows where we might be tomorrow."
"Whether we meet or not, whether we are there or not."
"It will always live on..."
"The tale of our love."
"The skies and the earth will narrate it."
[Music]
[Horse neighing]
[Thunder rumbling]
Lakshmi!
I've seen people dying.
I'm experiencing my own death for the first time.
Please don't misunderstand this.
Do you think I'm blind?
I was deaf and dumb to dedicate my entire life to you.
But what did you give me?
Betrayal!
This isn't betrayal, but my duty.
Leaving your wife and going far away
and holding a white girl in your arms is your duty?!
That's enough, Lakshmi! Not another word!
You're my wife-to-be!
I expect you to stand by me through every ordeal.
I have to ensure that Katherine reaches Delhi safely.
I'm willing to fight every battle.
It's my duty and my mother's command.
How dare your mother do this without asking me?
She pushed you on a perilous path without asking me.
I'll turn a widow tomorrow, not she.
Saving one girl and making another a widow! Is that fair?
I ask you and your mother.
You've lost your mind in blind fury.
Yes!
Assume whatever you want.
But right now, I'm going to stand by Katherine.
Stand by her! Die for each other!
We have nothing between us now.
I don't belong to you nor do you belong to me.
Lakshmi!
But I leave both of you with a curse in my heart.
You'll never see good times.
Lakshmi! Listen to me!
Lakshmi's right.
Please go back to Lakshmi.
It's my choice.
Don't try to explain to me what's right or wrong.
Both of you are right. I'm wrong.
My decision is to stand by you, come what may.
It's my decision to live or die.
Katherine!
Katherine!
Katherine!
At least listen to me.
Katherine, where are you?!
Listen to me.
Help!
A bloodstained sword in Kisna's hands, tables have turned.
You know why.
I hope you know that she is our enemy's daughter.
But she isn't an enemy.
She is British. - She is a girl.
For her sake, will you sever relations
with your uncle and your cousins?
That will be a sin.
Hand her over to us.
That will be a greater sin.
You think that you're Arjuna of Mahabharata to fight your brothers?
No, I'm just Kisna.
The son of Shanta and Shriram, Shankar's brother and your nephew.
Will you fight us?
No, but I will protect Katherine.
Omkara, skin them alive!
You white girl! - Kisna!
Kisna! - Kisna!
I'm going to skin this white girl alive. - No!
Uncle!
Kisna!
No!
He would've...
I had no other...
Option.
Well done, Kisna!
Now you've become Krishna in the true sense.
You killed your uncle.
Now it's my turn.
Come, kill me with the same sword!
Kill me!
No, brother!
I'm very small in front of you.
I beg of you. Please don't put me through this ordeal.
You have to go through this.
Your brother!
Or that white girl!
No, brother! - Look!
Now I'm going to kill her.
And you will kill me.
No one will interfere. - No, brother.
Stay right there.
Look how one kills
his elder brother.
No, brother! - Move!
For mother's sake! Please!
Leave me! - No, brother!
I won't let you commit this sin.
No, brother! - I'll kill her! Move!
If you want, you may kill me.
No, brother! - Move!
That's enough!
Don't compel me!
Don't do that!
Our mother ordered me to protect this girl you intend to kill.
Mother has also commanded me to fight for justice.
Even if it's with my own brother.
Look,
death might be my culmination.
But not you.
It's very important that you live.
For mother's sake.
It's imperative.
If she loses both her sons,
it'll be injustice to her.
Think about it.
Let me go! I beg of you, brother!
For the sake of our mother or else it'll be disastrous.
Kisna, don't fight for me.
India is my birthplace and I'd rather die here.
Shankar, kill me.
If you want to kill me, kill me.
Rather than see you kill your brother.
Let me die.
Kisna, let me die.
Heard that?
Now,
even if I have to slit your throat,
I won't hesitate.
I swear by mom.
Our mother!
Do you love Katherine?
Tell me.
Do you love her?
Now I do!
I love Katherine!
Katherine belongs to me.
I'm taking her away
from everyone.
[Gunshot]
I want Kisna... Dead.
[Temple bell rings]
"The colours get dull"
"The hearts change."
"The nights fall asleep."
"The roads get lost."
"Love doesn't lose."
"Love doesn't sleep."
"Love doesn't set."
"It doesn't change."
"We're together in this moment."
"Who knows what tomorrow holds for us?"
"We may or may not always remain together."
"Whether we live or die..."
"But our love story will live on forever."
"And this sky and this land will stand witness to it."
[Gunshot]
I ordered him...
I'd ordered him to fight this battle
and to protect that helpless girl.
I'm disappointed with you.
Jealousy has made you crazy.
Yes! I'm crazy!
Actually, Kisna and that British girl were...
Shut up!
I have the right to say what I want about him. He's my fiancé.
You have no right to say a word against my Kisna.
Lakshmi.
Excuse me. Will we find a hospital on our way to Delhi?
Ghaziabad is a mile away from here. You'll find one there.
But it's replete with bloodshed.
Why? - Hindus and Muslims are fighting, thanks to the Partition.
I suggest that you return. - I second him.
You better return from here.
This is the external service of the BBC.
In Ghaziabad, curfew has been imposed in the Paharganj area.
It will be relaxed between 4 pm and 6 pm
for the public to purchase essential supplies.
Mahatma Gandhi has appealed to all the Hindus and Muslims...
Who's coming here? - Stop the vehicle or we'll fire!
Are you a Hindu or a Muslim?
Where are you taking her?
Kisna.
My name is Kisna.
I have to drop my master's daughter to Delhi.
Are you out of your mind?
Can't you see there's a curfew? - Do you want to die?
Go back!
999! That means one short of a thousand.
I'm sure I've seen a car with the same numbers before.
999! This jeep belongs to Prince Raghuraj.
[Engine Stalling]
What's your name? - Kisna.
Hit him!
Kisna!
Kisna!
Katherine!
Set it on fire and run! The Hindus are here!
Kisna!
Help!
Kisna! Help!
Help!
Kisna!
Kisna!
I love you.
[Crying]
Stop! Riots are on and you're travelling!
Who's in this car? Come out!
Us!
Oh King! You! Salutations, sir!
The King!
Your Majesty, what brings you here?
There are riots all across the city.
God, what's happening? Why is it happening?
I want you to return.
I saw your jeep just a while back. The one with the number 999.
Yes, one short of a thousand.
That jeep belongs to Roger.
A boy and a British girl were travelling in it.
A boy? What was his name? - Kisna.
Kisna.
Where did they go?
They drove towards Paharganj.
Look, I want you to go and find that British girl for me.
Katherine, you stay right here.
Who are you? What's your name?
Are you a Hindu or Muslim?
Strip down!
What are you looking at?
Speak up!
Are you a Hindu or a Muslim? - Stop! Stop!
Don't do this please!
He...
He's my husband.
He's Christian. My husband!
John Thomas.
How do we believe you? - Look!
Look here!
Tell me, is he a Hindu or a Muslim?
He's my husband. My husband!
Why are you all fighting? This is your country!
You can take care of it.
Please let us go!
Then go! Why did you come here to die? Let's go!
[Crying]
I won't let any harm come your way. - [Police siren wails]
Pull over.
That's the girl we're looking for.
Please, we need help.
But we need to take you only. - Please...
Take her away.
But he's with me! We're together!
Katherine! - You can't do this! Kisna!
Please listen to me, Inspector.
Kisna! No!
Kisna! - Katherine!
Kisna!
"We are here this moment." - Kisna!
Katherine! - Kisna!
Hail Mother India!
"The tale of our love will always be there."
"It will always be retold"
"by this earth and the sky."
Katherine!
Please treat her like a lady. - Yes!
She's my fiancée.
Come, Katherine!
Prince Raghuraj, you are a bastard.
Listen!
I belong to Kisna!
Only to Kisna!
Katherine!
[Gunshot]
Katherine!
You slap me!
How dare you slap me! - Leave me!
Watch what I do to you.
Katherine!
You love Kisna.
First I will love you.
Come on, now.
Katherine!
Don't you dare go away from me.
Katherine!
Katherine!
Kisna!
Kisna!
Kisna!
Kisna!
Katherine!
Katherine!
Come.

[Sobbing]
Miss, I think you need some help.
Are you Kisna? - Yes.
Yes. We're from the British India office.
We're very proud of your victory.
Please sign on this paper. - Paper?!
Katherine and Jennifer Beckett believe your life's in danger.
Jennifer!
She's reached safely with someone called Jumman.
Thank God!
On their request,
you have permission to go to England.
You have to sign these papers
and leave for England as a family member tonight.
Who did all this?
Ms. Katherine Beckett.
May I meet Katherine?
Kisna!
I got the message to travel to England with you.
Thank you, Katherine.
This means that we'll stay with each other forever.
Right? - Yes.
Katherine, I...
We fell in love with each other during this journey.
That is a fact.
We're soulmates and will remain that way forever.
But...
But the truth is that my fiancée Lakshmi is waiting for me.
I have to return to her.
I'm committed to her.
I don't understand.
To get you here was my duty.
Now I have to fulfil my commitment.
I have to go back to Lakshmi and accept her companionship.
This is our culture.
Sometimes,
love reaches greater heights by letting go.
We attain greatness in love, in separation too.
Love doesn't only mean being together.
Parting is love too.
Katherine.
Don't cry.
Sometimes in life,
we assume a pause to be a full stop.
But it isn't the end.
A full stop is only the end of life.
Our love hasn't ended, it's begun with this parting.
Take care of yourself.
I have to stay in my new free country.
You have to go back to your country.
Let's part with pride.
Do you know?
You look beautiful when you smile.
Smile once!
Goodbye, Katherine!
Goodbye!
That was my Kisna!
Our Kisna too.
Yes, yours too.
I'm Kisna's younger son, Karan Singh.
Kisna is no more.
He passed away five years ago.
He fulfilled all his responsibilities, and passed away.
And Lakshmi?
Lakshmi is still with us.
We're two brothers and one sister.
Would you like to meet her?
Mother, Karan has already met her.
She is the one.
Do you recognize me, Lakshmi?
Katherine, Kisna...
[Crying]
Lakshmi, I know.
Your son told me.
I'm so happy to see you.
Perhaps I'm still alive because I had to meet you.
In 1947, after Kisna left you in Delhi,
he came back to marry me.
He fulfilled all my dreams.
He made me experience marital bliss.
He kept me happy.
But I got a husband, not his love.
He loved you, Katherine.
I got to know he loved you immensely
when he expressed his last wish before his death.
That his ashes be immersed only at Shivpuri.
Nowhere else.
The place where the two of you
took a sacred dip.
Your souls had felt a divine unity for the first time.
He told me about it one day.
Yes, Katherine,
we fulfilled his last wish.
We immersed his ashes there.
He merged in the Ganges
of your love forever.
Look, this is the gift you had given.
Kisna used to sit all alone
and play the same tune.
He would sit by the river of Devprayag,
and even hum something.
At that time, I used to feel jealous.
But today, I'm proud of him.
The love of a soul is far higher than anything else.
That's what he used to say.
Having loved and lost, and still loving till the end of time...
It's the greatest love. It's true love.
That was our Kisna!
He loved you so much and I misunderstood.
[Crying]
Today, Lady Katherine Williams declared that
she'll start a school and college
in the name of the great Kisna.
This famous lady also made us realise that
India's heart lies in its villages.
After hearing their story, our faith multiplied.
We believe, Lord Krishna descends somewhere or the other
in the form of Kisna,
makes us realise the true worth of India, and returns.
But we too found out a secret about Lady Katherine.
She still loves Kisna the way he used to love her.
Lady Katherine has expressed her desire in her will,
after her death, her ashes should be brought to India...
And be immersed in the Ganges at Shivpuri.
Just like Kisna.
Did you love him so much, granny?
Yes, darling.
Yes!
Our love hasn't ended. It's begun with this parting.
"We are here this moment. We don't know where we'll be in the next."
"We might or might not meet, we might or might not be there."
"The tale of our love will always be there."
"It will always be retold by this earth and the sky."
"My wish comes true!"
