0:31Mili has left today... l know she'll never return.
0:37To play pranks and spread happiness and joy is what she liked most.
0:43''This is a big building, in which, God knows how many people reside.''
0:47But Mili's voice and laughter will always echo in their ears.
0:53''lt seems like yesterday, that children were playing...''
0:56''awaiting Mili, so that on her return...''
0:59she goes to the terrace to resume her singing-practice.
1:09Mili is here!
1:15Let's start our rehearsals! - Not me! Go find someone else!
1:26Shall we start the rehearsal?
1:27Do what pleases you! But please don't bother me.
1:33What's wrong with her?
1:37''Come on... - What happened, my dear?''
1:40What is to happen? - Why aren't you laughing?
1:41When l went to the college this morning...
1:43l forgot to paste a smile on my lips!
1:54l wonder what's happened to her. l've never seen Mili like this.
2:13What's wrong...? What's up?
2:17What's happened?
2:25Hey! Why are you crying?
2:32What's up with Mili? - l don't know. She doesn't speak.
2:35''Go and fetch someone from the building, Aarti.''
2:40At least open the door... why are you crying?
2:42Say something at least!
2:46''What! - Yes, they've called you there.''
2:48Is ''Mili crying''?!''
2:52What's up ? - Take a look. l can't figure out.
2:57Something is fishy. Someone must surely have cast a spell.
3:01Come with me!
3:05''Hey, Mili... what happened?''
3:07Oh no! l fear the worst!
3:11The same thing happened to a relative of mine 4 years ago.
3:14Her husband is a very big official at the Tatas.
3:16''When l went to their place once, they...''
3:18Brother! l don't know what's happened to Mili. She's crying!
3:28Move aside... Iet me see.
3:30''Mili...my dear, what's wrong? Why are you crying?''
3:37Why aren't you answering me? - She's even locked the door.
3:41''Open the door, dear. Won't you open it?''
3:44Will you keep crying and cause me trouble?
3:55''What's wrong, dear? Aren't you keeping well?''
3:58Speak up! Why are you crying?
4:08Hey! You're laughing!
4:13What prank is this? - What happened?
4:17''How l fooled both of you! - Fooled us, eh?''
4:22''l was working out an experiment, Babuji.''
4:25''l found that nobody bothered about you, so long as you're fine!''
4:29And when you do become that little bit crooked...
4:31''like aunty said, my dear, what's wrong?''
4:37''She said, ''don't give me so much of trouble, my child'' !''
4:46What's wrong, brother?''
4:47l know how to pretend, too!''
5:25l asked the flowers...
5:30''l asked the flowers to laugh, and they giggled in mirth''
5:36''Life is to be laughed and enioyed, they said''
5:43''l asked the flowers to laugh, and they guffawed in mirth''
6:30''The Sun laughed and spread its rays''
6:45With the rays...
6:50the earth was bathed in gold
6:54''l asked for happy dreams and l got many''
7:03''Life is meant to be lived in happiness, they said''
7:42Brother! It's you ?!
7:46How come? - Didn't you receive my telegram?
7:48''No! In fact, l've written a 6-page letter to you only today!''
7:50My efforts have been wasted. - Not at all.
7:53Give me the letter. l'll go back and read it.
7:56''l've got to talk to you, Mili... who is he?''
8:01''My brother. - He's won the Vir Chakra, right?''
8:05You guys in the military really enjoy yourselves!
8:07A relative of mine is also in the army. On the Assam borders...
8:10''Are you going somewhere, aunty? - Oh yes!''
8:12''To see ''Bobby'' for the 8th time! l'll meet my husband there!''
8:15''You're late, in that case... - Oh yes! l must be moving!''
8:22''You had a narrow escape, brother. - How is that?''
8:26''Else, you'd have to listen to the tales of the mosquitoes...''
8:29that her relative faces on the borders in Assam.
8:31''There are mosquitoes in Colaba, too, where another of her relatives stays.''
8:35''And about the flat, there's a lot of blah blah!''
8:38Goodness! You've really saved me. Let's go.
8:45Have you arrived then?
8:46l was told your train was late by an hour when l called the station.
8:49''When l got there, l found that the train had already left!''
8:52You knew about his arrival? Why didn't you tell me then?
8:55Because you'd have forgotten college and gone to the station!
9:08''Who was that? - Mili's brother, who's in the army.''
9:12He's very handsome, isn't he?''
9:14They're all very handsome for you!
9:29''Step aside, brother... Iet's give her a surprise.''
9:32You please keep quiet. - l'll say nothing.
9:36What's up? Hasn't Raniit arrived? - l'll say nothing!
9:42Even she knew about him! Only l wasn't told!
9:48Bless you, son.''
9:53''Please sit down, while l go and get some tea.''
9:55''Come on, Mili... Ranjit's here only for a day.''
9:59ls that how it is?
10:00''Want to bet, Raniit?...Mili will remain quiet for 3.30 minutes.''
10:04''You have a bet, father. - Is it on, then?''
10:06Mili can't remain quiet for more than 2.30 minutes...
10:10For how long did she keep quiet the last time?
10:14lt's a bet then. If she remains silent for 30 seconds...
10:19you win a hundred rupees!
10:22''Now that she's quiet, Iet's talk business.''
10:26''What new of your transfer? - There are hopes, father.''
10:28''ln that case, this flat will be too small.''
10:31But l have a friend who has a vacant flat at Colaba.
10:36lt has two bedrooms.
10:39Do you want to say something? What ?
10:44Oh! Webs of the spider!
10:48''lsn't the terrace-flat vacant, too?''
10:50There you are! She broke the record of 20 seconds in only 10 !
10:55''Now that you've lost, Iet me have the 100 rupees.''
10:58l've won the bet and you want the money!
11:00And who did you win it because of? Out with it now!
11:04Stop tickling me! l'll give it to you.
11:12l'm hosting a dinner this evening. Please do come.
11:16l surely will. But what are you celebrating?
11:18My brother has won the Vir Chakra and has arrived today.
11:21l'll have to come in that case. But that's no big achievement...
11:25My son has won the award, too.''
11:28The winner must be somebody's son. - That's true.
11:33That was a very sensible thing Mili said. You'll have to admit.
11:39You get on with your chat and l'll go invite people over.
11:46Mili seems to be fine.
11:48''She seems to be fine, but her treatment is not getting over.''
11:53That will now always continue.
11:55Can't we do something to cure her forever?
11:59There's research going on. A cure can be found at anytime.
12:04''May God make it happen. - Don't worry, Father.''
12:32Come in, Ranjeet.''
12:36The door's open.
12:49You haven't changed at all.
12:51You even ring the bell in the same old manner.
12:54One should always change a little with the times.
12:57Or the times take offense.
13:00Will you remain standing? Come along.
13:03''You've changed a lot with the times, Aruna.''
13:06Oh sure... l've changed a lot.
13:09''At times, it even becomes difficult to recognise myself.''
13:13How many days will you stay?
13:14''For another day, tomorrow. l'll return the day-after.''
13:19Why are you always in a hurry to return?
13:22What will l achieve by staying back?
13:27''Before l forget, tell Mili that the terrace-flat has been sold.''
13:33And yes, l remember!''
13:34Why didn't you reply to my congratulatory message to you?
13:40l did write letters...
13:42but l didn't know how to begin and end the letters.
13:47''Should l still begin it with ''My dear Aruna...''
13:51''and sign off with yours, Ranjeet ?''
13:55When l got the Vir Chakra...
13:57l felt like writing a Ietter to the President...
14:00to tell him that l had joined the army to die.
14:03But then am l being considered to be among the living-beings?
14:06''Anyway, let's forget all that. Tell me about yourself. How are you?''
14:11l'm fine. - And how's Mr Ramesh?
14:15Fine...he's very fine...
14:18he has married a billionaire's daughter.
14:22What's there to be surprised about?
14:26''What did l possess, after all? Only a body.''
14:27''That girl possessed a body too, besides a bank-balance of crores.''
14:34Why? Why should you be sorry?
14:37l've really gotten over him.
14:42Can't life be begun again?
14:46l'm no longer the same Runa.
14:49Do you know why?
14:52Ramesh was very proud that he could attract girls with his flamboyance.
14:57''l thought, why should only men be entitled to do the trapping?''
15:02''Can't women do it, too? l also started playing with men.''
15:06But l found that its very easy to lure men with your charms.
15:10So easy that l got disgusted with it very soon.
15:15And l realised one day that l had become hollow from within.
15:22My soul is dead, Ranjeet.''
15:31There's a problem. - What's wrong?
15:33''Mili said she had invited 8 people, but there are 12 outside.''
15:35''That's no surprise. When Mili says 8, she actually means 16.''
15:39l've made provision for 16. - Have you? Great!
15:42That smells great. Can l have some?
15:49Where's your famous brother? - Brother!
15:53This is my brother and this is Mr Kulkarni.
15:55Please come. Sit down.
16:03That's eight, nine, ten...''
16:07''....15, 16, 17 ... - What are you counting?''
16:09''You said there were 8 guests, but there are 17 !''
16:11l didn't invite five of them. They invited themselves!
16:14But you invited 12, didn't you?''
16:17''We'll have to cook accordingly, won't we?''
16:22Greetings! Welcome! Please take a seat.
16:33''There are 19, with more to come! l'll send someone to a hotel!''
16:37''We will have to now. - Not necessary, aunty.''
16:39Put a lot of chillies in that vegetable you're preparing...
16:42''What are you saying! - Yes, Babuji...''
16:45''People will eat less, when it's very pungent.''
16:48Go look after the guests. - l'll send someone to a restaurant.
16:57You're not accessible over the phone these days. What's up?
17:00You're a public figure now. l'll have to meet you as one of them!
17:05You've arrived, have you Sanjay?''
17:08l must speak to you. Please come in. And you too.
17:11Your patient has landed me in the soup!
17:14Why? She seems to be fine.
17:17She said there'd be about 10 guests. And you can see for yourself!
17:21Will you go to Gazebo's then and get food for 10-15 people?
17:25''Come on, Saniay. - Where are you going?''
17:27They're all here to meet you. You stay back. l'll go.
17:35''Sit down, sister-in-law. - Where's Mili's brother?''
17:38''Come here, will you Captain? Tell us something about your exploits, too.''
17:44Now listen; l'll call Manisha here...
17:47and you hurry up and sit next to Ranjeet.
17:49Why? - Do as you are told!
17:55''Listen to me, will you? - What is it?''
18:01What was l saying...? There! l've forgotten!
18:04l don't know what's happening to me nowadays.
18:06My younger sister-in-law has the same problem.
18:09Whenever there's something important...
18:11never mind! Go and sit now.
18:13''Well, Mili... l came at your invitation!''
18:18''lt's good of you to have come, Mr Sharma...''
18:19there's no fun in a party without you.
18:21Haven't you brought your family? - They've gone to see a film!
18:24l see! Find him a seat. - Please come.
18:37There's a Dr. Saniay Chaudhary...
18:40''Having his food packed, did you say? For how many people?''
18:42That won't do. Send food for atleast 30.
18:45l'll let you know if l need more.
18:51Why the long face?
18:53lt's iust that wherever l went... - So what?
18:56Your brother has returned after so many days...
18:58won't it be nice to have so many people over for dinner?
19:43Who are you? - Who am l ?!
19:47What are you chuckling for? Who are you? Where are you from?
19:50Has anybody ever been able to provide an answer of who he is?
19:55Who are you looking for? - Mandakini !
19:59''She's not Mandakini. Anyway, which Mandakini are you looking for?''
20:03ls it Mandakini Aiyar who's celebrating her birthday?
20:08She's down. - Down!
20:14Never mind... wait!
20:16What is the effort of going to the second floor for Mandakini Aiyar...?
20:20l can even go down below the earth!
20:23Come on...go downstairs.
20:27Just a minute!
21:18''Hey, Mrs Sharma! Where are you off to?''
21:21What's wrong? Why are you breathless?
21:22And why not? All this weight and that flight of stairs!
21:26And that damn elevator had to stall right now!
21:28lt always ditches you at the best of times!
21:31This happened at a wedding of my relative of mine in Delhi.
21:34You know my brother-in-law? He's a big officer with the Tatas.
21:37And the bungalows of the Tatas... they're just fabulous...
21:39l know all that! But what was it that brought you here?
21:42Come to my flat at 2 p.m. There's an urgent meeting.
21:46Don't forget. Will you? At 2 p.m. then!
21:58What's the matter? - It's something serious!
22:00Please be at my flat at 2 p.m.
22:03Has Mili's brother left?
22:05lt would've been good to have an army-man around!
22:09But what's up? - l'll explain at 2 !
22:12Don't forget then! My flat at 2 p.m. !
22:15What could all this mean?
22:17Does this necessarily have to mean something?
22:19She probably wants to discuss an actress' wedding!
22:22Am l crazy to call a meeting as and when l feel like it!
22:27Truck-loads of luggage has been arriving. Has anybody noticed?
22:30lt belongs to the person who has bought the terrace-flat.
22:33''When somebody buys a flat, his Iuggage will also arrive, right?''
22:36But are you aware who has bought the flat?
22:39lt's Mr Shankar Dayal's son! - And who's Shankar Dayal?
22:42Have you already forgotten ?
22:44lt's the Shankar Dayal whose wife...hey!
22:47And what are you kids doing here? Go away...Go on!
22:57lt's the Shankar Dayal whose wife was caught with his secretary...
23:02''And Shankar Dayal killed both, his wife and her lover...''
23:05and hanged himself! - Oh! l remember now.
23:07His son has bought the flat now!
23:10So what? How is the son responsible for something his parents did?
23:14How can you say that? The boy is always drunk...
23:17''The biggest problem is that he's young, good-looking and wealthy!''
23:22How can that be a problem?
23:24''lsn't it a problem if someone is young, good-looking and wealthy?''
23:30l have no problems!
23:31But iust think of those several young girls who stay in the building!
23:56Here...have your milk.
24:01Have your medicines every 15 minutes. Don't forget... Understand?
24:16Now wait a minute!
24:18''Mili is not keeping well... Aarti, take the children out to play.''
24:21Why is Mili ill so often?
24:25She'll be fine in a couple of days. Go on and play now...
24:40Hey! Where do you think you're going?
24:42Why ? - This is where we always play!
24:43Get out of our way! - Wow! Will you use force?
24:46lt's our flat and we will not allow you. Get out now.
24:49How does one do that?
24:51Just turn around and walk! - Wait! l'll go and call Mili.
24:55ls she a gun that will blow me apart?
24:57What will you lose if the children play there for a while?
25:00What will you lose if they don't play there for a while?!
25:03Can you tell us why you're objecting?
25:05Certainly! We have bought this flat to live in it.
25:09Not to convert it into a playground!
25:10What's wrong? - The old man's not allowing us up!
25:15You shouldn't be speaking like that!
25:18''Well, sir... Why aren't you allowing them?''
25:20That's my choice. Now all of you get the hell out of here!
25:23Who are you to stop us! Call the boss!
25:26Great! Why should l call the boss for every little thing?
25:29''When we paid for the flat, we weren't told we would be raided like this!''
25:34''Let's go. They seem to have diamonds on their terrace, which might break.''
25:37Come along, children...''
25:48Your aunt said you're not well... and what are you doing here?
25:51That man upstairs is really nasty! - What did he do?
25:54Strange man! He's not letting the children play there!
25:56He says the flat's meant to live in.
25:58And not to convert it into a playground!
26:00He's right. The flat belongs to him and so does the terrace.
26:03What if he doesn't allow you to play there!
26:06Mr Chopra never used to obiect! - This is a newcomer...
26:10''once he gets to know everyone, he'll give you the permission too.''
26:12Go on now...all of you. Go away.
26:15And my little girl will come with me. Come along...
26:27''ls that Saniay? Yes, l had called a couple of times.''
26:31Mili's health has...okay...do come tomorrow morning...bye.
27:05''You're still awake, are you? - And so are you.''
27:09''Yes, l was waiting for sleep in my room....''
27:11''But since l still wasn't sleepy, l thought l'd do the waiting here.''
27:14''l get it. You were thinking about me, weren't you?''
27:16Yes. - And why do you?
27:18Should l really tell you?
27:20And who'll have this medicine? - l forgot!
27:23''Forgot, indeed! That's why l've got to think. Go on and have it now.''
27:29When you have children of your own...
27:31you will know why parents worry for them.
27:36Father...l think my batteries will have to be charged again.
27:40''Okay, dear... l'll telephone Sanjay.''
27:45''Give me my transistor, will you? What a nice song they're playing!''
27:50ls that the radio then? - Yes.
27:52lt doesn't belong to your father that it will play for so long!
27:55lt must be somebody singing.
27:57''You will sleep now, won't you? Go on, then.''
28:37''Not for a moment, wherever l am, does my heart forget the loneliness''
28:53''And yet very often, sorrow creeps up stealthily to touch me''
29:09Don't, O sorrow...''
29:15...play games with me
29:19''There seems to be so much of a void and emptiness in life...''
30:10Never did l sleep anywhere...
30:15...and l lost it somewhere...
30:21...all my happiness...
30:26''...like the letter to someone one forgets to mail''
31:35This is Mili !
31:45Have a loud-speaker fixed to your telephone!
31:50l'm feeling very bored!
32:07l'll attend college from tomorrow! Yes!
33:57You play the flute very well.
34:04''lt was you singing last night, weren't you? You sing very well!''
34:07And who are you? - l'm Mili (found).
34:10Mili ? - Yes.
34:14And where were you found (Mili) ? - Not that Mili !
34:17My name is Mili! l was very fond of hiding as a kid.
34:21''Everybody used to go around asking whether they had ''found'' !''
34:25''The one who searched and the one who found me out, both said so!''
34:29''Found if lost; and ''found'' if found!''
34:31''All that led to people calling me ''Mili'' !''
34:39''And where has he gone to die! - Not dead, he's gone downstairs.''
34:41Stop blabbering! - Hey!
34:44You're losing patience in the very first meeting.
34:46l don't like it.
34:48Go away from here.
34:52l could understand Hindi, too.''
34:56''What will you do, if l don't leave?''
34:58Weren't you the one who was shouting for the kids?
35:03l've bought this flat for my peace and calm!
35:05Not for your noisy scenes! - But the children...
35:08Where the hell were you? Haven't l told you never to let the door open?
35:11''Perhaps, it wasn't shut properly. - Why was that?''
35:14''lf you can't even shut the door properly, then find work elsewhere!''
35:23What's all this? You again? - Don't shout...l'm leaving.
35:27You and your boss need a Iesson in good behaviour.
35:41l want to speak to the secretary.
35:46Okay...okay...
35:48This is Shekhar here. l live in the terrace-flat.
35:49Ask her to telephone me when she comes in.
36:03There was a call from Mr Shekhar of the terrace-flat.
36:05He wants to talk to you.
36:08Let me have the maintenance-file. - Very well.
36:20''The moment l tell you, you must sing in very loud voices. Okay?''
36:45Stop making noise!
36:48Why did you stop? Did l ask you to stop?
36:50Now start again. Come on...
36:54''Shut up! Go away now, will you?''
36:57''Ask him, Guddi, if he's bought the passage alongwith the flat too?''
37:02Don't act smart with me! You don't know who l am!
37:05''l'm not interested in knowing you, too. Okay children, start...''
37:09Why?! Why should we shut up?
37:13Must l tell you? - Go ahead.
37:15Don't fight with him!
37:17He's a very dangerous man. He must have a gun with him.
37:20My mother told me that his father had shot his mother!
37:35Why did you have to say that? Are you a regular gossip ?!
37:39Okay, go away now... Move!''
37:49And what are you doing here!? Go and get me a drink.
37:52Prepare to vacate the flat in a couple of days.
38:35ls your boss in? - Strange laws you have around here!
38:38''lf you must ring the bell, go and find another door!''
38:41You're an insolent old man! It was your boss who called me!
38:44The boss called you? A girl ?!
38:47Yes.
38:54l'm Runa Singh. - What am l expected to do?
38:58l wanted to meet you. - But l don't want to meet you.
39:02And there's someone at last who didn't want to meet me.
39:06''Others in fact, cook up excuses to meet girls.''
39:09''l thought, perhaps you too... Anyway...''
39:13l'm the secretary of this Housing Society.
39:15Why had you telephoned? - It wasn't to meet you.
39:19''l'm known for my insolence, Mr Shekhar.''
39:23Now tell me what made you call me.
39:25''lf l knew this is how the secretary dressed, l wouldn't ever have called.''
39:29lt's a nice dress, isn't it?''
39:31''l've designed it myself...and have called it ''provocation''.''
39:36''How is the name? - Indecent, vulgar and cheap!''
39:39You look more like the heroine of a C-grade film!
39:43But you don't seem to have an identity at all. Okay...what is it?
39:47The children in this building make a lot of noise. They drive me crazy!
39:50You're the first one to complain about their conduct.
39:54You have a right to complain.
39:55''lf it isn't children who make a noise, will elderly people do then?''
39:58l hate this din and clamour. Do you understand?
40:01Should we put a lock on the children's mouths then?
40:03''You ought to know that, as also those children!''
40:06Okay.
40:07l'll have some cotton sent. Have your ears closed!
40:20We'll have to leave this flat too.
40:22This is the fourth flat in a single year.
40:24Let's stay on for another three or four months...
40:28Where are you off to? - To meet the Engineer.
40:30lt's impossible without a bungalow.
40:32But a bungalow's already under construction!
40:35The Engineer is no magician to produce a bungalow in 2 days!
40:46Please forgive me, Uncle.''
40:49''Please don't mind, she's only a kid. l apologise on her behalf.''
40:52l made a mistake, Uncle.''
40:55''lf you don't forgive us, Mili will never speak with us.''
40:59Please forgive them. They'll never again go upstairs to harass you.
41:03''All of us will even give you a kiss, uncle.''
41:10''We'll kiss you, even if you haven't shaved!''
41:26Okay... l forgive you.
41:29Say ''thank you'' to uncle!''
41:32Let's go downstairs now... slowly and carefully!
41:39And now listen to me!
41:42''lf l let you play on the terrace, you won't make noise, will you?''
41:45No! We won't!
42:10When l asked the flowers...
42:15''When l asked the flowers to laugh, they went into peels of laughter''
42:21''What else is life for, but to laugh and make merry!''
43:17''The evening blushes... like a newly married bride''
43:31''Up there in the blue skies... with red and crimson colours...''
43:41''When l asked the colours to spread, they spread over to the world''
44:28''When l ran into the weather one day...''
44:38''...l asked it to stop and play with me''
44:43''lt said it would, but it disappeared!''
44:52''When l asked my dear-ones to join me, they set out with me too''
45:22Come on now...let's go down. Silence!
45:30Will you come up with me? To meet Mr Shekhar?
45:33To meet Mr Shekhar! No thank you!
45:36At least listen to me!
45:38Raghu was taking some documents of the society to him.
45:41''l took them away from him, saying l'd pass them on.''
45:43''Come with me, will you? l've seen him from a distance today.''
45:47There won't be a better opportunity of getting to know him.
45:50Come on now, will you?''
45:51''Okay, if you don't wish to come, shall l go all alone?''
45:54''No, you will not go alone. - What's there to be scared of?''
45:58How's he to look at ? - He's so handsome and sweet...!
46:03when you see him... - Do you like him so much?
46:07He's a bachelor, isn't he?''
46:09''Okay, let's go...but before we Ieave, let's pray to Lord Krishna.''
46:29What will you have? Whiskey or gin?
46:33''l'm thinking, Gopi... of having tea today.''
46:36What?
46:40''What did you say? - Yes, l'm in the mood for tea today.''
46:44''Excellent! Maintain the mood! Maintain the mood, my son!''
47:00Who is it? - Is your boss in?
47:03What is this regarding? - l want some signatures.
47:04Please come in.
47:07Greetings. - Greetings.
47:09This is my sister-in-law; she wanted to meet you.
47:12''l badly wanted to meet you, but there was no way at all.''
47:16l feel very uneasy if there is a newcomer l haven't met.
47:20The brother-in-law of my sister-in-law in Delhi is a...
47:22''Sit down...won't you sit? - Thank you, but we must leave.''
47:27You've done the house up beautifully...
47:29Sheila was saying...this is Sheila; my sister-in-law.
47:34She's studying for a diploma in Business Administration.
47:37That's a good thing she's doing.
47:39She says she wants to get her doctorate in the U.S.
47:41''Her brother also agreed, but l refused.''
47:44l refused to let an unmarried girl go all alone to a foreign land.
47:47l asked them to get her married first and send her wherever they wished!
47:50That's a good idea.
47:52But good boys are hard to come by. - Yes.
47:56Have you seen rice that we get in the rations? Not worth eating.
47:59''Grooms are the same, too. They're just not worth looking at.''
48:04No wonder then that your arrival in the building has caused a flutter.
48:06''Come on, sister-in-law... what have you started now?''
48:09Listen to her! Have l said something wrong?
48:12''My other sister-in-law is like this, too.''
48:14She measures the 'length' of every spoken word!
48:17Weren't there some signatures you wanted...?
48:19Yes...These are the documents of the society.
48:23Get me a pen, Gopi...''
48:26Take this.
48:33''You haven't thanked me, have you?''
48:37lt was a gift from my sister-in-law on my 16th birthday last month.
48:40''lt's imported! - It's my firm belief, Mr Shekhar...''
48:43that you must gift someone with a foreign commodity if you must!
48:46Everybody here is iealous of her.
48:48Listen; there's a Mrs Chadha here... please be careful of her.
48:53There was some people who came to see her daughter Anila recently.
48:56They took my Sheila's embroidery-work and showed it to him.
48:59''They said Anila had made it, and she can't even sew a button!''
49:03l at once said Mr Shekhar wouldn't even employ Anila in the bathroom!
49:07The old woman was livid!
49:09She said she'd be doing you a favour if there was ever an alliance.
49:12''Else, which decent person would give him his daughter!''
49:15''l was hurt at what she said, just as you are.''
49:17''And l asked, what did our Mr Shekhar lack?!''
49:20And do you know what she said?
49:22She said everybody knows about Shekhar's mother!
49:25And l said how can you hold the son responsible for the parents!
49:29Sheila has a lot of sympathy for you.
49:31For someone who has such a stigma attached to his mother's name...
49:35that person... - You may go now!
49:37What ?! - l said go away!
49:42Shut the door, Gopi!...''
49:44and get the son of the late Shankar Dayal a whiskey.
50:16l don't need anyone!
50:22Get out of here!
50:25''What's up, Mister? - Don't you want my master to live!?''
50:29What harm has he done to anybody? - But what's the matter?
50:31A couple of women iust came and spoke nasty things of the late boss.
50:35They spoke all sorts of rubbish!
50:37l've known the master since he played in my laps...
50:39''l taught him to walk, talk and laugh.''
50:43lt was this gossip that drove the Iate boss and his wife to death.
50:47They're now after my master! - But what is all this about?
50:56Let's go inside.
51:00Sir !
51:04''Please hurry, sir! There's trouble!''
51:18''Look what's he done to himself, sir!''
51:21''Do you have a first-aid kit? - No, sir.''
51:23''Okay, l'll get it. Mili...''
51:25hold his hand tightly to stop the blood from flowing. Go on.
51:36Do you have ice at home? - Yes.
51:40Only ice ?!
51:43Bring it with some whiskey for her! - Please don't speak.
51:48You... Who are you?
51:53l'm nobody.
51:56You have to be somebody.
52:01Atleast ask me as to who l am.
52:05Apart from being Mr. Shankar Dayal's son...l'm nobody.
52:12And who is Mr Shankar Dayal?
52:18lt's the same chap who shot his wife dead!
52:23l... l'm an object of terror.
52:29''Besides, apart from being the son of my parents...''
52:34....l'm a ghost, too.''
52:45''You... Who are you, after all?''
52:50Haven't l said l'm nobody.
52:53l'm very pleased to meet in you that case.
52:57l'm a nobody too.
53:00Let's shake hands on that.
53:03''But how will you shake hands, when you refuse to leave mine?''
53:09Leave my hand. - l won't.
53:12Leave my hand...let go...
53:15let go... Leave my hand!
53:18Leave it... - No!
53:20Sit still!
53:21You're no Prince! You can't do as you please and not be reprimanded!
53:30''Gopi... - What is it, Young Master?''
53:34l've been scolded after many days...
53:39l liked it.
53:43l really enioyed it.
54:19You're running a temperature. - That's alright.
54:30How's your Master? - He's got a fever right now.
54:37''His mind is cool, his body's hot! Your boss is a strange man!''
54:44yes, dear?''
54:45''lf all your stuff is broken, shall l send you some from my house?''
54:49We've got a lot of old crockery!
54:52''Anyway, l was only ioking. l hope the temperature is not very high.''
54:55Oh no... it's not very high.
54:59Even temperature must be scared of him. How could it be high!
55:02''Have you given him some medicine? - Yes, l have.''
55:06My father is fond of practicing Homeopathy.
55:08He believes that administering Hypericum will completely cure him.
55:11''l'll get it for you. - It's okay, why take the trouble?''
55:16Great! You can't hire people to be concerned about you.
55:20''When l fall sick, l have the whole building hovering about me.''
55:23''What's the fun in falling sick, if nobody asks after you?''
55:27Let me get the medicine for you.
55:30Where are you going? She'll be coming. Meet her.
55:33l don't need anybody's sympathy.
55:35She's not asking a price for her sympathy. They're very kind folks.
55:39''They came at once, when l called them last night.''
55:43They're all very nice in the beginning. They get friendly.
55:46''And when they're friends, they want to know about my mother.''
55:57''Don't open the door. - Open, l will.''
55:59You can drive her away with your English!
56:10You don't have to glare at me.
56:12''When you're sick, your neighbours are bound to call on you.''
56:15My illness seems to have become a farce!
56:17They must impose an Entertainment Tax on my illness!
56:20And l've come to pay that tax. Have this; four pills at a time.
56:24You will make me have it? - Yes.
56:26''And l thought, you'd come here to have bottles broken.''
56:30Were you listening then?
56:32The whole building was listening. - But l was only joking.
56:36''Please forgive me, if it has hurt you.''
56:40l want to apologise for whatever happened last night.
56:46Will ''l'm sorry'' be enough?''
56:48No... You'll have to have this medicine.
56:52Open your mouth now... Go on.
57:03You have a beautiful hand.
57:05Really? Do you know palmistry too?
57:07''Tell me what the lines on my palm say, then.''
57:13This is the line of heart... you have a large-heart.
57:18And as clean as the mirror... you can't see anyone in sorrow.
57:24And think everyone is as clean as you are.
57:28But not every man is worthy of mingling with.
57:33''ls that written here, too? It must have the man's name too then.''
57:37''lt is Mr Shankar Dayal's son, Shekhar.''
57:44l'm really a very bad man, Mili.''
57:48You're ill; and anybody ill can only be good.
57:51Go ahead.
57:54This is the life-line... which runs right till here.
57:59You have a long life. - What else?
58:04You make friends very quickly. - Is that good or bad?
58:09l don't know. Friendship is never good or bad...
58:14it's friends who are good and bad.
58:17Okay then... show me your hand now.
58:25This is the line of the heart... you have a small heart!
58:31You never share your sorrow and difficulties with anyone.
58:34Sorrows ?
58:37''Even the Government cannot nationalise sorrow, Mili!''
58:42And look at these... these broken lines...
58:46Do you know what they are? - What are they?
58:48They're the result of breaking glasses in a drunken state!
58:55You laugh like a kid!
59:01But your voice cracks up when you're angry!
59:03He's only Shankar Dayal's son... not a gun that will open fire!
59:07What a racket he created after drinking that night!
59:11''l think everybody does that, once he has had too many.''
59:13''Drink if you must, but in your house, and create as much...''
59:16of a racket as you please. But why be after someone's honour?
59:18What did he do? - Do !
59:20Ask my sister-in-law about that. Tell them.
59:23''Yes, that night when the elevator was not working...''
59:27l took the staircase to come upstairs.
59:29And l found that the devil had blocked the path when he saw me!
59:35His eyes were red... and he was pissed-drunk...
59:38l was petrified as to what l should do.
59:41And then... he started slowly approaching me.
59:46And l... l said a prayer to the Goddess...
59:50''l pray everyday, you see... Perhaps this is why l escaped.''
59:53Did you hear that? They're sending children now!
59:56Rehearsals are being held! A drama will be staged!
59:59This building will be known for the honours that are plundered!
60:03Goodness! l will not let my children up there anymore.
60:06Nor will l send my children now.
60:21Gopi... - Yes ?
60:25Why are there so few children today?
60:28l wouldn't know, sir.''
60:31''Open the door... - Very well, sir.''
60:50Why are all you quiet today? Won't there be a rehearsal?
60:55Your Mili isn't here too.
60:57''Mili will go to see a film today, Uncle.''
61:00The other children also haven't come. How will there be a rehearsal then?
61:03Oh! Never mind.
61:05Let me tell you a story then. Come here.
61:09Come on... Quick.
61:13''We have guests, Gopi... go and get lots of chocolates.''
61:21''ls that a gun? - No, l see stars with this.''
61:25Why have you come in to harrass him? Go out!
61:28l've called them in here. - Don't encourage them like this...
61:31''else, they'll make life difficult for you.''
61:34''Actually, life has now become difficult without them.''
61:37lt's their fun and gaiety... and their laughter that...
61:43''Hey! That's a telescope! My father had one, too.''
61:48''Will you show me stars, too? - Sure, why not?''
61:51''Okay then, children... Get going.''
61:52No way! Uncle's telling us a story.
61:57l will also listen to the story! Please start.
62:00''You were going to the movies, weren't you?''
62:02l forgot! Bye...
62:04Go home quietly after you hear the story!
62:06''Come on, children... be seated.''
62:12''Once upon a time, there used to be a demon...''
62:17''tall as l am, with eyes so big...''
62:20and hands that stretched like this!
62:24Aunty! Aren't you still ready?
62:27l won't be going. Movies give me a headache.
62:30Excuses again! l won't listen to you. Dress up quickly. Please!
62:35Father!
62:41''Welcome! - Hey! You're fine, aren't you?''
62:45Why? - What are you doing at home?
62:47Have you forgotten? - And what is that?
62:49What's today? - What is it?
62:52Aren't we going to the movies?
62:55Oh yes! That's why l'm home early!
62:58Go and get ready then.
63:10''There's a call from Poona, father... take it on the extension.''
63:19''What is it, Rama? An accident?!''
63:23How did it happen? Is it serious? l see...
63:27''Don't worry, l'll leave right now with Sharda.''
63:37What happened, brother?''
63:39There was a call from Poona. Your brother-in-law has had an accident.
63:43Oh God! - There's no one to look after...
63:46.... Rama there. l've told her we're coming.
63:48We didn't even attend their daughter's wedding.
63:50lt won't be proper not to go at such at time. Go and get ready.
63:59lt's good to meet you. l'm going to Poona with Sharda for a few days.
64:02Mili is all alone. Look after her.
64:04''Don't you worry. l'll stay with her, till your return.''
64:07Stop worrying about me and be on your way.
64:09Ring me up the moment you reach there. Come on...
64:35l'm here! - Hey! When did you come?
64:38Just now. - Why so quietly?
64:41There's great fun in coming silently.
64:42''l still give my father a scare, by stealthily walking up to him!''
64:46Did you ask for his permission to come here?
64:48Why should l? - You must. Go and ask him.
64:51Right now? - Yes.
64:55lt'll cost a lot of money now. - Money ? Why is that?
64:58''My father has gone to Poona to with aunty, you see...''
65:02l'll have to go to Poona to seek his permission!
65:10ln that case...it is not proper for you to be here now.
65:14Why?
65:16Do you think l've taken advantage of their absence to come here?!
65:20l don't wish to see those stars anymore!
65:26Your voice sounds terrible when you're angry.
65:32And what is that... You've got tears in your eyes too?
65:34Come and sit here now.
65:36''l had come to see the stars, but you spoilt my mood.''
65:39Never mind...sit down now.
65:44That's a nice way of showing your displeasure!
65:49That's not alcohol... it's only beer.
65:54You speak as if beer were holy water itself!
65:57What's so funny? You're always drinking!
66:01''You don't even know your neighbours, and befriend those distant stars.''
66:05Just see how l bring those distant stars so close to me.
66:08Which one should l show you...? - Let me tell you.
66:13That big one there.
66:15That ? That's no star... it's a planet.
66:19Which planet is that? - It's Jupiter.
66:23''Do you know, as we have the Moon for our satellite...''
66:26....Jupiter has 1 1 Moons.
66:28Eleven !
66:31''Strange ways of God...with nobody to see them, there are 11 moons...''
66:35and we have only one!
66:37''This is a small telescope, you can see only 4 moons through this.''
67:08Do you know where these stars go away by the day?
67:12Where do they go? They remain there...
67:14only they are not visible because of the Sunlight.
67:18That's a scientific explanation. - So ?
67:21Don't you think these stars are naughty children...
67:24''like that cluster there, where they all are gossipping away!''
67:28''And that sulking-star there, far away, is glaring at all of them.''
67:33''But when it's morning, and when the Headmaster Sun appears...''
67:37''they all disappear, with the grounds absolutely clear.''
67:41You're right.
67:44A scientific explanation limits imagination.
67:47You're making fun of me now.
67:49''l'm speaking the truth, Mili. You're like the Sun....''
67:54''which drives away my worries, with your presence.''
67:59And l can see myself very clearly in the light you emit.
68:07These are not stars...
68:09They're lost people.
68:12''When l was a little girl, l used to ask my father where my mother was.''
68:19And my father used to reply that my mother had become a star.
68:22l've started liking stars from then.
68:27''Your mother must be amongst those stars, too.''
68:30Let's look for her.
68:32Who knows? My mother and your mother must be great friends by now.
68:42Do you want to meet my mother?
68:45''So far, l've not let anyone else meet her.''
68:48But l will surely introduce her to you. Come with me...come along.
69:02See this.
69:05ls this your mother?
69:07So beautiful...and so pure.
69:11Tell me now; Can this Goddess-like mother of mine ever...
69:15Never! They talk nonsense!
69:19''But people have been hurling abuse after abuse at her, to...''
69:26Forget it. - How can l forget it?
69:30My soul is bent with the weight of these accusations.
69:36l must have been around 6 or 7 years of age when...
69:41''one day, l returned from school to find...''
69:46the house swarming with policemen...
69:50and my mother lying in a pool of blood.
69:53My father sat before her with his head hanging.
69:57Gopi at once took me in his arms.
70:01ln whose care l have been since that day.
70:06l never heard of father after that.
70:11l learnt later that he had shot his secretary dead.
70:15For which he was hanged.
70:19lt's from that day that this episode has been haunting me like a ghost.
70:27Our lawyer gave me this envelope on my 18th birthday.
70:34lt contained this snap... and this letter that mother wrote.
70:40Read it. - You read it.
70:47This is something l read everyday.
70:51''Shekhar, my son, you will have grown up when you receive this letter''
70:58''You might even have forgotten me''
71:01''Or you might even remember me with a lot of contempt''
71:06''But my son, you've grown-up now and understand life for what it is''
71:12''l offered no defense to your father, nor am l offering excuses to you''
71:18''All l am saying to my 18-year old son is that...''
71:21''believe me if you can, l am innocent''
71:25''A woman can't prove her innocence even if she wants to, my son''
71:31''Goddess Sita had to be consumed by earth, even after a trial by fire''
71:37Bless you
71:40Your mother
71:52My mother's name was Sita, too.''
73:43''What's wrong, Mili? Was it a nightmare?''
73:48Go back to sleep now.
73:52You have a very high temperature. l'll call Doctor Sanjay.
73:56No... Don't leave me alone.
74:15l must say something to you, son.''
74:17Why does Mili have the temperature even after the blood-transfusion?
74:21''You know this is no ordinary disease, uncle...''
74:24l'll let you know as soon as l get the report.
74:26Do keep visiting us... It reminds us of Ranjeet.
74:30Very well then.
74:40Listen...
74:43lt looks like Mili is ill. - Why ?
74:47The doctor was here iust now.
74:49Maybe this is why she hasn't come here for a few days now.
74:54Give her a bouquet on my behalf.
74:57l'll go and get the flowers... but you take them to her.
75:00''Do as you told, understand? Go now.''
75:03Bring the bouquet to me first. - Okay.
75:24l told you to take rest and not indulge in all those pranks.
75:28''There's only one difference between you and auntie, father.''
75:32Auntie gives me iuices to drink and you always lecture me.
75:34That's enough!
75:36See who it is.
75:38''You think l'm faking my anger, eh? l'm really very angry!''
75:43You can't even be angry a little and pretend you're very angry!
75:46What was that... - Very angry...!
75:53''Greetings, madam. - Greetings.''
75:54l'm told Mili is ill... - Yes.
75:57The Master has sent these flowers for her.
76:01Madam, can l see Mili too?''
76:04Ofcourse. Give her the flowers yourself. Come in.
76:11How much is it?
76:13Not much. Should be fine by tomorrow.
76:16Come in...
76:19''Greetings, sir. - Greetings.''
76:22''The master has sent the flowers. He was to come personally, but...''
76:24But why didn't he? Was he scared of the rumour that l bite in illness?
76:29''No, my dear. You know he's not the sort to mix around.''
76:33''He sent the flowers with me today, saying he'd meet her some other day.''
76:37''Sharda, get me some tea, while l call Dr Sanjay.''
76:42Here you are, dear.''
76:53Will you give me that writing-pad and that pen lying on the table?
77:02There you are.
77:06Do the children come to play? - They do.
77:08But there's no fun in playing without you.
77:16Give this letter to the master and tell him l like flowers very much.
77:21Very well, dear.''
77:33Get well soon - Cruel Demon
77:39''When was l bad to get nice now?''
77:42''Get well soon, or l'll fall sick''
77:45''How can l ever recover, if you fall sick?''
77:49''You're very nice. Only the stars are down to naughtiness''
77:53''They must surely be out, but they're not visible''
77:57''Or maybe, l don't want to see them''
77:59''One must never hurt the stars''
78:03''Till l don't recover, try hard and find me a new star''
78:11Why should l look for a star for you?
78:14''Every man has to find a star for himself''
78:17''l've even found one for myself - l see. How is it?''
78:23lt's a very iovial friend
78:25''l don't even know how l've lived without this star so far''
78:29''And where have l really lived? l've just started living''
78:33''l'll have to get well soon to see that star now''
78:37And what will you call the star?
79:09''How are you, dear? - The fever is just not abating.''
79:12l'm better than l was.
79:14l'm tired of lying down here. Please take me to the drawing-room.
79:22Throw away all those stale flowers. - No!
79:25Let them remain as they are.
79:27Go outside and relax. l'll clean the room in the meantime.
79:31Come along.
79:34''Don't throw away the flowers, aunt. - Okay.''
79:50Sit down.
79:57Feeling cold...? l'll get you a shawl.
80:22''There's a bad news, uncle... - Is that Sanjay?''
80:25Mili needs another blood-transfusion tomorrow.
80:28But isn't it only 4 or 5 days since she was given a transfusion.
80:32What is the necessity of giving her another transfusion now?
80:35Will we have to give it every 4th or 5th day!
80:37Why is that so?
80:40Which means...it's time now!
80:49''l lived in hope till now, but it might now break.''
80:56''l agree you had warned me, but l was hopeful that...''
81:01''yes...what else can you do, but try?''
81:36Everything's gone topsy-turvy since you've taken ill...
81:40l couldn't even find the shawl.
81:42l'm feeling very cold here; please take me to the room.
81:46''Yes, it's good for you to lie down. Come with me.''
83:53''ls it you, dear? - Don't move me away, father.''
83:55What happened? How did you get up and come here?
83:58Why are you crying?
84:01ls it trouble again? Should l telephone Sanjay?
84:05Then what are you crying for?
84:09''l was thinking as l lay down, that no one has a father like mine...''
84:16''and l felt like crying. Why does this happen, father?''
84:22lt happens, my child.''
84:24When l think that no one in the world has a daughter like you are...
84:29l feel like crying too.
84:31Come along... - No...let me sleep here with you.
84:36l haven't slept for many days now. l don't know why...
84:44Okay...sleep here with me.
85:15What's up? - Here's a chocolate for you.
85:21Cure our Mili soon, uncle.''
85:25All of you pray for her. She'll surely get well.
85:28Nobody lets us even meet Mili.
85:31''Will you take us with you tomorrow, doctor?''
85:33lf you really want Mili to get well soon...
85:37then don't meet her.
85:39She'll want to play when she sees you and get worse...
85:43l'm right. Am l not? - Yes. We will not meet her now.
86:03''Gopi... - Yes, sir?''
86:11''Give the bouquet to me. - Very well, sir.''
86:26Please come, son.''
86:30How's Mili now? - ...She's okay...
86:36l got some flowers for her. - l can see that.
86:41She likes flowers very much. - Yes.
86:46Can l see her?
86:49She's resting right now... - It's okay. l'll come later.
87:05''Where would you keep me, if l were to become a bouquet myself?''
87:22Mili's father is here.
87:30Greetings! - Greetings.
87:32''Gopi told me you were star-gazing. - Yes, that's my hobby.''
87:36How's Mili ? - Which telescope do you have?
87:38Come and take a look. Come on.
87:48How did you cultivate this hobby ?
87:51''l'm all alone, you see. Which is why...''
87:55Have you ever thought... how every star is alone...
87:59how different their paths are... with different destinations...
88:05they're all alone.
88:08They're all alone.
88:11''And they've got to choose their on their own, too.''
88:17''All this is good, in a way. If they come too close...''
88:22''Mili comes here quite often, doesn't she?''
88:26Yes, she does.''
88:38You don't seem to like it.
88:41''Yes, it's not good for you to be involved with Mili.''
88:44Why?
88:46''Every ''why'' can't be answered. - Don't evade my question.''
88:49l'm her father; isn't it enough for me to forbid you both from meeting?
88:53Why don't you say that you want to sacrifice me for my parents' scandal?
88:57What are you saying! Do you think l'm so cheap?
89:00''l'm no enemy, Shekhar. - They all come to taunt me.''
89:03''Since you're educated, maybe you'll employ a different way.''
89:07''lt's not that, Shekhar... l don't want to answer your question.''
89:11''Please leave this place, in that case.''
89:12''l'll drive Mili out too, if she comes here.''
89:14Don't be so inconsiderate.
89:18l understand that the sorrow you have experienced is enough for life.
89:24l also know that you will not comply unless you know the whole truth.
89:31Will you be able to bear it? - Try me out.
89:35''l wouldn't have found a better suitor for Mili, if looked among the stars.''
89:42''You're like the sandalwood tree, my son...''
89:45which is not necessarily meant for funeral-pyres.
89:47Even if it is a funeral is for Mili.
89:55Yes. She has very few days left.
89:58The doctors have given up hope.
90:02l went ahead and said it... but you seem to be hit badly.
90:08l'm her father, my son...''
90:11my relation with her cannot be curtailed or increased...
90:14But you have your life ahead of you.
90:16''The more you get involved, the more hurt you will be.''
90:52What are you reading? - Nothing.
90:57How are you feeling now? - Okay.
91:01Do you want to see what l was reading?
91:03Let it be. - Take a look.
91:07lt's more fun to know something without taking a look at it.
91:11They're all very senior in this house. l can't show it to anyone.
91:15You read it... Please.
91:41''So, the author of these letters is a ''Cruel Demon'', is he?''
91:45Whatever people have to say... but Mr Shekhar...
91:49look at how he's won over the children in a few days.
91:54l can see that.
91:57''Please take care of him. He's very Ionely. You will, won't you?''
92:03l will; but what's wrong with him?
92:06Nothing... he's very sad.
92:11He's one in thousands.
92:15''You will go to him, won't you? - l will. But what's the hurry?''
92:20You must go to him today.
92:22Ask him why he sends flowers everyday; why doesn't he come himself?
92:27''lt is when l count the stars at night...''
92:36''...and listen to echoes of your footfalls...''
92:45''...every star appears to me to be a reflection of you''
92:55''Oh, l've begun remembing you, with my heart singing too''
93:05''The breeze brings a scent, and sandalwood now is fragrant''
94:06''As and when my eyes dream about you...''
94:16''...the weathers appear to be made-up with henna too''
94:25''...and you look like a bride''
94:34''My heart tells me this, every moment...''
95:16''All right, then... l'm leaving.''
95:26Uncle... What's wrong?
95:30What's happened?
96:00Why must you have so many things if you must change residence so often?
96:03One suitcase should be enough to shift from one house to another.
96:08May l come in? - Please come.
96:16''l've got to speak to him in privacy, could you please...?''
96:21Oh sure. l've also got a lot to do.
96:26Please sit down.
96:36''l have bad news, Mr Shekhar. - Is it about Mili ?''
96:44l know it.
96:49l...
96:54l'm going away from here. - Going away?
96:59Yes.
97:02''How can l stay in a building where, one flight of steps below me...''
97:07''the one who taught me to live, may die at any time.''
97:14You're absolutely right.
97:16''Why must you hang around, now that you've learnt to live?''
97:23''But you haven't really Iearnt to live, Mr Shekhar.''
97:26''Those who have learnt to live, never desert the dying.''
97:30l can't see her die, Ms Runa.''
97:32Your inability to see her does not change anything.
97:36''Mili said, you're one in a thousand.''
97:41''But l thought you were not one in a thousand, but one in millions.''
97:46''But you have turned out to be a very ordinary man, Mr Shekhar.''
97:51''Please go ahead... Mili can die without you, too.''
98:31''l'm sorry, l tried hard to heed your advice, but...''
98:34''l knew it, my son. - l want to meet Mili.''
98:39Come along.
98:43Please send for these medicines.
98:45''Mili, my dear... Iook who's here!''
98:48''Saniay, this is Mr Shekhar who stays in the flat above ours.''
98:52''Our Mili is a very good actress, doctor.''
98:55She's bedridden because she wants all the attention.
98:57''lgnore her for sometime, and she'll jump about in a couple of days!''
99:00Exactly! Which is why l haven't even given her an injection today.
99:03No one will bother about you now!
99:06You're right. She talks such a lot of rubbish that she falls sick.
99:09''Neither will there be rubbish, nor anyone in attendance. Let's go.''
99:13You've only iust come; please sit for a while.
99:15l'm no enemy to sit here! l'll take a look everyday and go away.
99:20Let's go. - Yes...
99:25What's wrong with Mili, doctor?''
99:28Father! Father!
99:32''What's wrong, dear? - Come closer, father...''
99:35....sit here...
99:37''And you, you will come tomorrow, won't you?''
99:40Yes, l will.''
99:45What's wrong with you? Is it the problem again?
99:48Then why did you shout?
99:52Tell me what's wrong.
99:54You'll have to make me a promise. - Promise? What promise?
100:00What is it, dear?''
100:03Don't tell Mr Shekhar anything. - What shouldn't l tell him?
100:09What he was asking you iust now.
100:17Father...
100:19''Everything that Saniay said to you over the telephone, the other day...''
100:27l heard it all.
100:36Father...
100:38l've managed to pull Mr Shekhar together with great difficulty.
100:43lf he gets to know the truth... he won't be able to bear it.
100:52This is a very dangerous disease.
100:54Who's been affected? - There's a girl...
100:57''she's the daughter of Mr Khanna, my neighbour.''
100:59Mr. Khanna?
101:02ls it Dr. Saniay Chaudhary's case? - Yes.
101:05l've seen the reports. Dr. Chaudhary had consulted me.
101:11This case is...
101:16ls there cause for hope?
101:18''Doctors never speak of hopelessness, Shekhar.''
101:22''Because as long as man is alive, he's not dead. Right?''
101:25''Take Cancer for instance...there's no cure, but we still try, don't we?''
101:30Who can ever say? A drug might be discovered...
101:34....a miracle could occur.
101:37l wouldn't know that.
101:39''All l'd want is for her to outlive me, too.''
101:43That's in God's hands now.
101:46''My Guru, Dr. Schiller lives in Switzerland...''
101:49''his wife was down with the same disease, too.''
101:52She could not survive. But Dr Schiller has made the cure...
101:56''for this disease, the goal of his life.''
101:57Can you give me his address? - Sure. Why not?
102:00But there is still no news of a breakthrough even from there.
102:04All you can do is to keep that kid happy...
102:10till as long as possible.
102:18''There is something l must tell you, uncle.''
102:23Please sit down.
102:28Ranieet ought to be here now.
102:33''l understand, son. - l'll write to him today itself.''
102:39Why should you write to him about all this...?
102:41that Mili is now... No. l'll write to him.
102:46l have to prepare myself for this tragedy too.
102:49''lf l write it myself, then perhaps... perhaps l'll believe it all too.''
102:55''There's no need to send him a telegram, is there?''
102:58No. There's no need for a telegram.
103:01Greetings... - Please come.
103:04l'll make a move then.
103:05Please don't forget to write to Ranjeet.
103:11Sit down.
103:20l don't know how all this happened...
103:23Mili will leave all of us behind and...
103:26l want to marry Mili.
103:30l know everything.
103:33l know that she might perhaps not live for more than 10 or 20 days.
103:36''But till she is alive, why shouldn't we all keep her happy?''
103:41She had once asked me...
103:44why aren't all dreams of a man fulfilled?
103:47She had put that question to me; not to you.
103:50l want to fulfill at least one dream of hers.
103:55But, my son...''
103:58Write to Ranieet about the wedding too.
104:01l'll go and discuss this with Mili.
104:17ls she asleep?
104:22Welcome. - How are you today?
104:25Much better than l was yesterday. - Auntie...
104:28l badly want a cup of tea.
104:31Can l have it? - Why not? l'll go and get it.
104:35''Only tea will not do; l'm very hungry, too.''
104:39What will you eat? - Anything in a large quantity.
104:45You don't ever drink tea.
104:47''l couldn't ask her to leave, could l?''
104:50What's up? l've never seen you so happy before.
104:53''How could you, when l was never so happy before?''
104:57You too will be shocked to hear. - Really ?
105:00What is it?
105:01''The thing is, Mili, l am...''
105:06l'm going to get married.
105:09Surprised, aren't you?''
105:11''Everything happened so fast, that l just couldn't tell you.''
105:16lt was fixed today. The wedding is on the day after tomorrow.
105:20''Actually, l was very bored living all alone.''
105:24And so l thought of settling down.
105:29What's this! l thought you'd be happy to hear about my wedding!
105:33''And l really am very happy. Very happy, indeed.''
105:38What can be better news for me than that of your settling down?
105:44Who is she? - There is someone.
105:48How is she?
105:50''l can't say that, but she is certainly unique.''
105:54Show her to me once.
105:57''lf l had the strength to walk, l'd have gone and taken a look.''
106:03Show me a photograph of hers atleast.
106:10Look at that.
106:17You're a real nut, aren't you?''
106:19How could you even think l'd marry someone other than you?
106:23l fall in love with you; and marry someone else! Great!
106:26What do you take me to be?
106:30This simply cannot be! l cannot marry you.
106:34Why not?
106:43There is no hope for my life.
106:49Who are doctors to decide about your life?
106:54l'd been to a palmist to show my hand yesterday.
106:58And do you know what he said?
107:00''He said, your wife will live for a week more than 80, but not less!''
107:05He also said that because the position of planets is unfavourable...
107:09''....she, meaning you, is unwell.''
107:11But you'll recover from the next day of the marriage.
107:14lt is because of this that even your father has consented.
107:17Has father agreed? - And how wouldn't he?
107:20''You know how stubborn l am. Else, l'd have eloped with you.''
107:24''Once l decide to tie the knot with you, it has to be you then!''
107:28You can't believe me. Isn't it?
107:30''lf you can't believe the palmist, at least believe me then.''
107:34When l say that you will recover...
107:37then you will have to recover to honour my word.
107:42''Else...how will l be able to live, Mili?''
107:49l want to live, too.''
107:50Why not! And how not!
107:53We'll go to Switzerland after our marriage.
107:57The clouds on the alps are mysterious and blue...
108:02and the stars twinkle so close to you...
108:05that you feel you can stretch and touch them.
108:09l have long hands, as it is!''
109:32Father... - Did you get my letter?
109:37Yes. But...to get her married in this state...?
109:46That's a long story...
109:48''l'll explain it in peace, if l ever find peace that is.''
109:52You go ahead and meet her.
109:55Listen...
109:58''she knows of her condition, but she will hide it from you.''
110:03Laugh and ioke with her... as if you know nothing.
110:10Very well, father.''
110:14lt is difficult not to cry at such times.
110:18lt is even more difficult to pretend. l know that.
110:20Go now... go ahead and meet her.
110:27Go ahead, son.''
110:43''Brother! - How are you, Mili?''
110:46l'm alright.
110:51lt was wonde_ul! l got a letter from daddy...
110:54to rush home. Mili's getting married!
110:57l was amazed that my little sister could have grown so much!
111:10And how are you, brother?''
111:12l ? l'mabsolutelyfine.
111:14How won't l be fine now?
111:18There are purchases to be made; there's so much to do!
111:22My little sister's wedding is no laughing matter!
111:59Go look after her, dear.''
112:20''Please stop crying, auntie... don't cry.''
112:25How's that possible?
112:27''Mili was only 6 months old, when my sister-in-law passed away...''
112:35ls this why l had brought her up...
112:38that she dies after marriage?
112:41What are you saying, aunt?''
112:43Mili is going to Switzerland for further treatment.
112:47She'll return absolutely fine.
112:49Don't try to console me... l can't believe all this.
112:58Return soon, my dear.''
113:01''Go inside, daddy... Go in to Aunty.''
113:06''So long, dear... Look down from the plane...''
113:10l'll wave out to you.
113:18You may leave now... bless you.
113:59Brother...
114:01''Will you have some tea? - Yes, get me some.''
114:06When does the plane take-off? - At 7.3O
114:10But it is already 7.3O
