English
3:10Sunder, don't forget to greet the lawyer
3:14Come here, Nathu
3:18Hello, Sunder
3:23You're so late
3:25- I'm hungry! Come on, Gopal - Let's go, Sunder
4:56Sunder has hit Gopal very badly. He's bleeding
5:01See? They've quarrelled again
5:04- Will you say it again? - Yes
5:07What happened, Gopal?
5:10Did Sunder hit you?
5:12No, father. I tripped on a stone and started bleeding
5:17Radha said Sunder had hit you
5:19She's lying
5:20He did! He beat Gopal!
5:22Shut up. When did he hit me?
5:24Father, she's lying
5:26Bravo, son. I like your attitude
5:29You're bleeding but you still won't say a word against your friend
5:44Radha. I've made the house bigger. There's room for Gopal too
5:48- Now you'll live in it - No, I won't
5:51- Why? - Because I just don't like your house
5:56If you were anyone else, I'd teach you a lesson
5:57Let go
6:02Teach who a lesson? Remember I fought in the First World War
6:06Come, Captain, he's just a child
6:08Nathu, control this stupid boy. He's getting too naughty
6:12Don't you behave like children either
6:14Go and play, children. You too
6:17Play only with Gopal. Stick with one's kind
6:22He may have a car, but I have an airplane
6:25I'll take her in my airplane and show her the world:
6:28London, Rome, Paris
6:31Everyone will be gawping. I'll take her away
7:46Just come down and I'll show you!
10:25Sunder! What are you doing?
10:28I meant to throw the hook into the water, but I missed
10:31Give me back my clothes
10:32I can't. They're tangled up, just like our destiny
10:38Say my name again. It sounds so nice coming from your lips
10:42Stop it! Give me back my clothes
10:44I will, but first answer my question
10:47- I answered it a hundred times - But it was always no
10:50Say yes just once. Or you won't get your clothes
10:54Nonsense!
10:56Imagine for a moment that I'm not Sunder...
10:59...but Gopal who would say to you:
11:32<i>Like the Ganges river, like the Jumna river...</i>
11:37<i>Tell me, Radha, will we ever be united?</i>
11:56No, never!
12:16<i>So many years have passed...</i>
12:21<i>...in trying to convince you</i>
12:25<i>You'll never find anyone as patient as me</i>
12:34<i>Will my heavy heart ever find ease?</i>
12:39<i>Tell me, Radha, will we ever be united?</i>
12:49Go away!
13:09<i>I have suffered so much for your sake</i>
13:13<i>Like the parched earth craves for rain</i>
13:18<i>Radha, Radha</i>
13:20<i>My every breath utters your name</i>
13:26<i>Stones melt but will your heart ever soften to me?</i>
13:50Go away! Must you pester me?
13:52Fine! We will be united!
14:56Radha, listen!
14:59Gopal's returning from London the day after tomorrow
16:23Aunty!
16:25She's in the prayer room
16:30Gopal!
16:34- Bad news? - Brilliant news!
16:38He has topped the university exams
16:42Absolute truth. I raised Gopal and educated him
16:46You don't believe me?
16:47Read the article. I'll tell everyone
16:49- Let's celebrate before you go - I'll celebrate with Gopal
16:53Look at this
17:42Where's Sunder? Did he know I'm coming?
17:45Of course he does. He was spreading the news all over town
17:48- So why didn't he come? - He'll be at the party
17:51Party?
17:53To celebrate your return
18:27Well, my lawyer? How are you?
18:30Why weren't you at the airport?
18:32I came there by cycle...
18:34...but you had already driven away
18:37I cried out "Gopal," but you couldn't hear me
18:44You look great. What's this garland?
18:46Garland? I had brought it for you
18:49But you had left, so I wore it
18:51You and me, is the same thing
18:53You were the one studying law, and I became the lawyer
18:57Now I found you
18:59Here, my friend
19:05- You were away so long - Come
19:09Let's sit
19:12I hear you left the Air Force and joined a flying club
19:15Yes! I teach people how to fly
19:18But I cannot find anyone who would like to touch the sky
19:28What can I say, Sakina?
19:30I felt so happy when Gopal complimented me
19:33Don't you think you should talk to Gopal?
19:39You don't think he...
19:41No
19:42Playing house when you're children is one thing...
19:46...getting married and running a house is another thing
19:52Tonight I'll tell him everything and see what he thinks
20:02Congratulations, Gopal, you're one of us lawyers now
20:05Thank you...Won't you join the judge?
20:13Captain, why are you hiding in the corner?
20:15I'm watching the fun The flow of the party
20:19By all means, but may I fill up your empty glass while you're at it?
20:24- How about a drink for me too? - Sakina!
20:30What can I get you?
20:32First ask me what I have for you
20:35- What is it? - Over there
20:44I came for the fun
20:46But she has something to tell you and hear
20:49- To say what? - Ask her
20:53Oh dear, I forgot. Let me get you a drink
20:57- Don't trouble yourself - Let me
21:01We're not short of servants here
21:04Please let her. She must learn how things are done here
21:08After all, she has to come here as a bride one day
21:13You're dazzling tonight. Who'll be struck by your lightning?
21:17How are you, Radha?
21:26What was Sakina saying?
21:28She was right... what did she say?
21:31That you wanted to talk to me
21:34- Congratulations, Gopal - Thank you
21:37You're looking lovely
21:40And Sunder? He isn't here yet. What a strange man
21:47- Did you talk to him? - How? There's such a crowd
21:51Can't move here
21:53- I don't see your friend Sunder - We expect him any minute now
22:07There he is!
22:09You're always late. Must you be late today?
22:14I can't keep anything from you. You know I only got one suit
22:18I had to have the trousers mended
22:21I wanted to look smart. Radha is coming today
22:25Is she here? Where?
22:29Seriously, Radha, you must speak to Gopal tonight
22:33How can I with that idiot hovering over him?
22:39Gopal, stay with me
22:41What if my heart stops beating or my pulse halts?
22:44Say hello. I'll be right back
22:47- Shall I? - Go!
22:54Look, his lordship's coming here
22:57Leave Sunder to me, you go trap Gopal
23:00I say, Mr Sunder...
23:02"Mister?" Call me Sir: I'm wearing a suit
23:05Sir Sunder, we hardly meet these days
23:08That's the problem: we hardly meet these days
23:14Talk to Sakina, I'll be right back
23:17See?
23:19So talk to me
23:22- What about? - Let's talk about Radha
23:26About Radha? Carry on
23:29I hear you're madly in love with her
23:31Has the news hit the marketplace?
23:33If you don't mind, may I say something?
23:35With pleasure
23:36Why don't you ask Radha what she wants?
23:39What you have in mind may not be what she wants
23:44That's why I'm here
23:46Today I'll tell her my heart's desire and ask hers too
23:50Don't you worry. Want a drink? I'll be right back
23:54See, there's such a difference between Gopal and Sunder
23:58A worthy son of a worthy father
24:00Today a lawyer, tomorrow a magistrate, then a judge
24:04And the other one's always been a wastrel
24:06He's even come here today with an accordion hanging off his neck
24:10Whatever you may say, Sunder is a gem at heart
24:14And that's why I have only one dear friend in the whole world - Sunder
24:19You're so biased sometimes
24:22All you see is his accordion
24:24You don't see how he is the life of a party
24:28He charms everyone
24:32What is it?
24:35Have you seen Sunder?
24:37It's you I need to speak to
24:39I've tried to say it many times but couldn't
24:44The judge is asking for you, son. Come along
24:47I'll be right back
25:01Ask your friend... he's not eating
25:05Sunder, aren't you eating?
25:07- No, I can't swallow - Why not?
25:12What I have to say to her is stuck in my throat.
25:14I must spit it out first
25:16How will you say it? By playing your instrument?
25:19Yes, Captain. By playing and singing
25:21Wonderful! Music is the wine of life
25:24That's why, Judge sahib:
25:26"Every heart that loves will have a song to sing"
25:29What a line
25:31- Then complete the couplet - Go on
25:37"Every heart that loves will have a song to sing..."
25:43"You can recognize a crazed-lover even in a crowd"
26:03<i>Every heart that loves will have a song to sing</i>
26:12<i>You can recognize a crazed-lover even in a crowd</i>
26:36<i>First you stole my heart, now you turn your eyes away</i>
26:46<i>But I shall remain constant even if love is one-sided</i>
26:55<i>This is the way of love</i>
27:00<i>Even though you don't know it</i>
27:06<i>The moth will always follow the flame</i>
27:11<i>You can recognize a crazed-lover even in a crowd</i>
27:27<i>Every heart that loves will have a song to sing</i>
27:31<i>You can recognize a crazed-lover even in a crowd</i>
27:53<i>Those forgotten memories of my happy childhood</i>
28:02<i>They return each night to rob the sleep from my eyes</i>
28:11<i>What I wanted to tell you...</i>
28:15<i>...I could not say. Though many seasons came and went</i>
28:22<i>Who knows when I'll be able to overcome my shyness</i>
28:27<i>You can recognize a crazed-lover even in a crowd</i>
28:42<i>Every heart that loves will have a song to sing</i>
28:47<i>You can recognize a crazed-lover even in a crowd</i>
29:17<i>Now everyone has had their say</i>
29:22<i>Only I have remained silent</i>
29:26<i>One who takes on himself the pain of others</i>
29:31<i>How can he talk of his own feelings?</i>
29:35<i>This unspoken story...</i>
29:40<i>...will linger on after I'm gone</i>
29:46<i>Befriending everyone, this stranger will depart</i>
29:51<i>You can recognize a crazed-lover even in a crowd</i>
30:16Won't you dance, Sakina?
30:17Me dance? No way... but you should
30:55What are you looking at?
30:58Nothing
31:01Tell me
31:03You don't know how long I've waited for you
31:08Really?
32:12"I'm writing this letter as an answer to that very question
32:16"The answer is that I don't know what the answer is"
32:19Have you no shame? Reading other people's letters?
32:23So, now I'm the "other?" And he's all important?
32:27Give me the letter, I'll deliver it
32:31Can't I deliver it myself?
32:32Then why is it still here?
32:35I'll give it to him when I see him
32:36Shall I ask him to come here?
32:40Sure. I'm not scared
32:43I'll call him
32:45Captain, I'll take these papers with me. I'll send them the notice
32:50Please come upstairs
32:54Let me accompany you upstairs
33:03Where are you going?
33:04- Sakina called - Not Sakina, Radha did
33:08I don't know about that. I am going upstairs
33:10Sure. After all you fought in the First World War
33:16Okay, let's go
33:18- Did you call me? - No, not me, Radha did
33:23What is it?
33:27Nothing at all
33:35- For no reason - Now tell him
33:37- Why are you lying? - Ok, I'll tell the lawyer
33:42The thing is Radha...
33:51It must be a joke between you two.
33:54I was made into a fool
33:59What's this nonsense? You didn't give him the letter
34:04What's the hurry? I'll give it to him
34:08He's still downstairs
34:09No, he is leaving
34:11Give it to me
34:13Come with me
34:26Oh no!
34:28- What do we do now? - Delivered the letter?
34:44Get it, Hurry!
34:49Father? Coming!
34:51- Hurry! - But the letter?
34:53Later. If we don't go, father will come here and the secret will be out
35:09A letter!
35:14Damn, it's in Hindi
35:18Panditji was right. Knowing how to read Hindi is essential
35:22I wish I'd learnt to read Hindi
35:49- I've got it, Gopal! - Got what?
35:53A priceless treasure. In short: this letter
35:57The decision of my fate...
35:59- Gopal, I am at your mercy - What are you doing?
36:02I've come to you to have my fate read out
36:05Read it and tell me if I'm in hell or on the Everest
36:08I mean, on Everest or in hell
36:11Tell me what it says
36:16"Sweetheart"
36:18Sweetheart?
36:28- Say it again - Sweetheart!
36:30"Take the wine glass from me, I'm already drunk"
36:34What's the joke, Sunder?
36:35It's not a joke, Gopal. You won't understand. Read on!
36:40"Sweetheart, I've always read the question in your eyes. Was I right?"
36:45You were right, my love, absolutely right. Read on!
36:50"I'm writing in answer to that very question"
36:52Answer it, quickly!
36:54"The answer is that I don't what the answer is
36:58"When you're away, I think of all the things I'll say to you
37:02"But when I see you, I can't speak
37:04"This is not new. It's always been like that
37:08"This may be what the poets write about
37:11"This may be the thing called Love
37:14"Yours, Radha"
37:22My Radha
37:26Hold me, Gopal. I'm going to fall
37:32Stop this act, Sunder
37:33This isn't an act, Gopal. This is love
37:38"Love is not simple. Think of it thus:
37:41"It's a river of fire in which you must drown
37:45Enough drowning lovers
37:47They exist only in Urdu poetry
37:51How would you know?
37:52Have you ever been in love?
37:54Yes, I have
37:57With whom?
38:00Radha
38:07Is there only one Radha in the world?
38:11Is there another?
38:15There was one Radha who was Lord Krishna's beloved
38:18The name-sake of all Radhas
38:21Oh, that Radha
38:33For a moment, you almost took my life
38:36Look...
38:39My hands and feet have gone cold
38:41As if the blood froze in my veins
38:46Gopal, I am madly in love with Radha
38:51I can't live without her
38:55But I'm telling you the truth:
38:57If you loved my Radha, I would move out of your way
39:01My heart might be shattered...
39:03...but I'd sacrifice my love for your friendship
39:31Where have you gone?
39:34I am right here with you, just thinking about something...
39:38You think too much, do too little
39:42Tell me what to do
39:44I'll make the plans and you'll go along, no questions asked
39:47Right, no questions asked
39:48First thing, we're going boating tomorrow
39:50And it's Sunday
39:52- But I have work, Sunder - Can't you give up work for me?
39:55Give up work? I'll give up my life for you
39:58Then come with me, I'll take your life
40:01Come with me
40:03- Where to? - Just come
40:06- Pick up the phone - Done!
40:09Now dial: 3...5...6...
40:15.....2
40:16That's Radha's number
40:18Tell her you've arranged a boat outing for tomorrow
40:22- Captain sahib, this is Gopal - Say you'll pick her up at 3
40:26- How are you? - Who cares...
40:28Very well, thank you
40:29I wanted to say that tomorrow, Sunday, we're going boating
40:35Yes, very good. We'll come... Radha too
40:42That was Gopal. He's invited us to go boating tomorrow
40:45- Invited us? - He's invited Radha too
40:49He's invited Radha too, or only Radha?
40:53I don't know... I'm going
40:56Sure! Suddenly you feel young again?
40:59Let the one who is really invited go.
41:01It's a start, let it take its course
41:05If Radha can get a boy like Gopal, what more can she ask for?
41:09- How should I know? - How should you indeed!
41:12All you know is you were a captain in 1916
41:23- You're having a big party - No, a small party
41:27For two
41:35Radha will sit here
41:39And Gopal here
41:42And me here
41:53One with intoxicating eyes
41:56The other whose arms hold you as you fall
41:59On one side, a friend, the other side, a sweetheart
42:23Is this the time you show up? I spent a lifetime waiting for you
42:26Sunder here? Did you invite him too?
42:29He's the one who's invited us both
42:32- And the phone call? - I called on his instructions
42:36Have you turned into ice? Are you coming or shall I?
42:47How are you, Radha?
42:52- I hear you got a new boat - I just lowered into the water
42:55You'll be amazed
42:56- It's really nice - Come and see
42:58- Gopal, take a look - I'll be right back
43:00- I'm coming too - Where are you going?
43:03Let me show you my boat
43:09Who are you looking at? Gopal?
43:12No harm in it. You can't find a friend like Gopal anywhere
43:17I feel pain, and his eyes fill with tears
43:20I'm happy, and his heart overflows, like yesterday
43:23- What happened yesterday? - I read your letter
43:26- You read it too? - Well, no, Gopal did
43:28We have no secrets from each other. We tell each other everything
43:33It's good, right?
43:35Where's your boat?
43:43Here it is
43:46- How do you like it? - This? So tiny?
43:50How many will it seat?
43:52Two!
43:54You and me
43:56They say two's couple,
43:59three's a crowd and four's a gang of thieves
44:02Who's the couple?
44:05There's only one couple in the world: you and me. Right?
44:15How do you like my amazing boat?
44:17So come aboard
44:19You think she'll go in your ragged boat?
44:22You think she'd sit in your tub? Nobody would!
44:25She who sails with me sits in my heart
44:30I don't ply a water lorry like you, begging for passengers
44:33- Move your lorry out of the way - Lorry? She's a beauty!
44:37I've seen your beauty and your beauties
44:40It's a paper boat and paper flowers
44:43A cheap piece of tin and you're showing off? Get rid of this wreck!
44:50See, Radha? He's sailing a water lorry and dares beg for passengers!
44:55Good riddance!
45:05So you were saying...
45:10Can you tell how deep the lake is?
45:13Must be about 30 feet
45:16- Is there anything deeper than that? - Of course, the sea
45:21Deeper than the sea?
45:24I don't know
45:26Your eyes, Radha. Your eyes. Let me drown in them
45:33That's what I don't like. You turn everything into a joke
45:37Sometimes I like your humour
45:40Sunder, you're good at heart and I like you too...
45:45But there are limits and sometimes you cross the line
45:49Today I want to know what my limits are
45:52Tell me my limit
45:54I don't know
45:55- Tell me, what is my limit? - I don't know!
45:58- Tell me what is my limit? - I don't know!
47:46<i>O my love</i>
48:12<i>O my love, the purpose of my life is found in your heart</i>
48:28<i>There's no place on this earth where you are not manifest</i>
49:06<i>What could make you angry? What could make you sad?</i>
49:13<i>What consumes your every thought?</i>
49:16<i>We will be united one day</i>
49:59<i>One day I shall hold you in my arms</i>
50:06<i>The world will be left with eyes wide open</i>
50:09<i>As I take you away with me</i>
51:25Radha?
51:27This is Gopal
51:30<i>- Is the Captain there? - No</i>
51:33And your mother?
51:35She isn't here either
51:36<i>- Couldn't I help? - I must talk to them</i>
51:39Tell them I'll come over tonight. It's very important
51:44I need to talk to them
51:45Talk?
51:48About you
51:50About me?
51:59Sakina, you know who that was? Gopal
52:03He's coming to talk to father about something very important
52:07About me...What can he have to say about me?
52:12Tell me, Sakina
52:17He'll say: "I don't like Radha, she's stupid and ugly!
52:21"Marry her off to Sunder!"
52:26Don't say such a thing. Not even as a joke!
52:42Serve the drinks, then go upstairs
52:44It's not proper for the girl to be present
52:47Why, mother?
52:48I told you: there are certain things a man cannot discuss openly
52:55Do come in
53:00- How are you? - Well, thank you. And you?
53:05Fine, thanks
53:09- How are you? - Well, thank you
53:11- And you mother, is she well? - She's fine
53:31How are you?
53:33Fine, thank you. And how are you?
53:38Fine, thank you
54:03- You, here? - Your humble servant
54:09Madness! You think it's clever leaping over walls?
54:13This is just a wall, Radha
54:14For you, I'd jump across rivers of fire, oceans of death
54:18What kind of a joke is this? Please, Sunder, go away!
54:22Why?
54:23You don't know. They're having a serious talk downstairs... about me
54:28I do know, very well
54:29- Gopal's here! - Who else do I have in the world?
54:33Why don't you get it? Go away now, please!
54:37Now that we're joined for life, where can I go?
54:41You look lovely
54:43I'm telling you again, Captain
54:46You won't find another boy like Sunder
54:49Forget it, Mr Lawyer. Would I let Radha marry that useless man?
54:53He isn't educated or rich
54:56He barely ears 150 rupees a month. Can my Radha live on that?
55:01What if I'm asked what the "gentleman" does...
55:04...what shall I say? That he left a good job with the Air Force...
55:08...to swan about in the Flying Club rickety planes? No way!
55:13Men become responsible after marriage, sir
55:16Sunder will too
55:17He's a diamond at heart
55:19Maybe so, sir, but I'm not the jeweller who's willing to buy it
55:23I feel bad having to turn you down
55:26I know you're his friend and have come here on his behalf
55:32But I can't help it
55:34Son, do you mind if I say something?
55:38If you like, we can let Radha marry you
55:45Marry me?
55:50Think about it
55:53I can't even consider it
55:55Are we so unworthy?
55:57No, I didn't mean that at all
56:00There must be a reason
56:04Is there a flaw in Radha?
56:05How can you say that?
56:08Only a lucky man can marry a girl like Radha
56:11So what's your objection?
56:13Objection?
56:20There's no objection, sir
56:23Just like you, Captain,
56:25I can't help it
56:28Let me pass, Sunder
56:30How can I? My fate is about to be sealed today
56:33Then here's my answer: I don't like you!
56:36Have you seen your face in the mirror?
56:41I'm seeing it now
56:45In your eyes. It's not so bad
56:49As if!
56:50Being a clown isn't enough. You have to be someone in life
56:54- One has to be what? - Let go
56:56One has to be what?
56:58I'll be whatever you want, just tell me what
57:01I don't know
57:14Don't tell Radha that Gopal came to talk about Sunder
57:18Tell us he came to sound us out and we said we'd think it over
57:24If one says yes right away, the matter loses its gravity
57:28I think Gopal will come back in a few days and say:
57:32"I agree to marry Radha"
57:46I tried my best, Sunder, I left no stone unturned...
57:50Don't say any more, Gopal
57:52- Believe me, I did my best... - Why do you keep saying that?
57:55- So that you don't think that... - Are you mad?
57:59Don't I know you'd put your life on the line for me?
58:05I need to become someone, Gopal
58:08Radha also said that it wasn't enough to be a clown
58:12A man has to be something
58:17So I will become something
58:22Why the sad face? Smile, friend
58:27Keep smiling, Gopal
58:31You have such a great smile
58:34There's only one person whose smile can match yours - and that's Radha
58:39When she smiles, the moon and sun seem to shine together
58:47Anyway...
58:58Where are you taking me, Gopal? Tell me
59:00I'll tell you on the way
59:02But what is it?
59:05Where are we going? I don't understand
59:09You'll soon find out
59:32You know where you're going and what you have to do
59:36You have been briefed
59:38I have to say one more thing
59:40Don't forget that you serve in the Indian Air Force...
59:43...and the Air Force has faith in your courage and patriotism
60:15You're here?
60:19What is this? The uniform...
60:23These planes... What's all this?
60:27You once said being a clown wasn't enough...
60:31...that one should be something, do something
60:35This is Air Force uniform and I fly these Air Force planes
60:39And today this plane will fly me away
60:41Where?
60:43A soldier can't reveal his destination
60:51One minute, Gopal
60:56I'm going, Gopal. I don't know when I'll be back
61:00Before I go, I must say something
61:03Tell me, Sunder
61:05You're everything to me in the world: father, mother, brother, friend
61:11After I'm gone,
61:13let no man come between me and Radha
61:16Promise me
61:18Give me your word
61:22I promise
61:26If I die, that's another matter
61:28Die?
61:32What are you saying?
61:34I won't die, Radha
61:39I will be back. I'll certainly come back
61:42To you. For you
62:03Come back to me? For me?
62:43Listen!
62:48Sunder, I must tell you
62:54Don't get the wrong idea
62:57I don't love you, Sunder
63:00I don't love you
63:02Take care of yourself, Sunder
63:35<i>I won't die, Radha</i>
63:36<i>I won't die</i>
63:38<i>I'll certainly come back</i>
63:41<i>To you. For you</i>
64:08<i>Gopal, I can fight all the dangers in the world</i>
64:11<i>I'm fighting them but I can't fight the darkness in my mind</i>
64:16<i>When I don't get Radha's letters, the darkness grows so dense...</i>
64:19<i>...it blots out all the lights in the world</i>
64:22<i>Go to Radha today and tell her to write</i>
64:26<i>To write me a letter before I go mad</i>
64:30<i>Yours, Sunder</i>
64:35<i>Go to Radha today and tell her to write</i>
64:40<i>To write me a letter before I go mad</i>
64:45Remember how we used to play at building houses...
64:49You, me and Sunder
64:52You used to say: "Radha will stay in my house"
64:57And Sunder used to say: "Radha will stay in my house"
65:01He still says the same thing, Radha
65:04Still?
65:05That's what I've come to ask you
65:07Why haven't you answered his letters?
65:11- I just haven't - Why not?
65:16Playing house as children is one thing
65:19It's quite another as husband and wife
65:23Sunder is only a childhood friend to me, nothing more
66:03If you had a woman's heart, you'd understand my predicament
66:08What predicament?
66:10- I love someone else - Who?
66:14- You - Are you mad?
66:16- You're driving me to it - It's a sin even to listen to you
66:19Then I shall pay your sins when I die
66:23But tell me just this once: have you never loved me?
66:28You're lying! You just kept silent out of your friendship with Sunder
66:32It's for his sake that I keep silent today, or else I'd say something
66:36Then for his sake, tell me what's in your heart today
66:40What's in my heart is Sunder, fighting death out there
66:44He's immersed in fire and smoke all day...
66:48...and there's only one picture before his eyes:
66:52Radha yearning for him
66:54There were so many rocks he could crashed into.
66:57Why did he choose you?
67:00There were no less rocks for me either. Why did I choose you?
67:49What is it?
67:51I've got a letter, in Hindi. From Radha. Will you read it?
67:57"Dear Sunder
67:59"...look after yourself and as you said:
68:02"Come back to me, for me
68:05"I'll wait for that moment. Your Radha"
68:13My Radha
68:17You're very lucky, Sunder
68:20To have a beloved like Radha and a friend like Gopal
68:40"Your Radha"
68:46Panditji was right. Reading Hindi is very important
68:56<i>A friend is no longer a friend</i>
69:02<i>A beloved is no longer a beloved</i>
69:07<i>O life, I can no longer trust in you</i>
69:16How wonderful!
69:23Why don't you ever sing something else, Kishan?
69:25Always the same sad song
69:28People do laugh and smile sometimes
69:31You can smile, Sunder. You sweetheart didn't break your heart
69:36Your friend did not stab you in the back
69:38Or you'd say the same
69:40"A friend is no longer a friend. A beloved is no longer a beloved
69:44"O life, I can no longer trust in you"
69:58We could do nothing. Our forces are still surrounded by the enemy
70:02Without weapons or rations
70:05- Supplies cannot reach them - Why not, sir?
70:08The planes cannot get through, the mouth of the valley is narrow
70:12And each foot is covered by non-stop enemy anti-aircraft guns fire
70:18With your permission, sir, I'd like to try
70:21You're a bomber pilot, this is a Dakota job
70:23No job is too inferior at war. Grant me permission, sir
70:27You know what that means? Sure death
70:30Death for me, life for my fellow soldiers
70:33Please give me the chance
70:36I promised someone to be somebody, do something
70:39Please let me do it
70:41Please, sir, let me go
75:42I even asked him: "You know what that means? Sure death"
75:48He answered: "Death for me, life for my fellow-soldiers"
75:53And it came true
75:56What a man...
75:59"It is with great sorrow that I must inform you...
76:02"...that Flight Lieutenant Sunder Khanna...
76:05"...was killed in action, fighting the enemy"
77:01This medal for bravery is presented to Flight Lieutenant Sunder Khanna
77:08The late Flight Lieutenant...
77:10...Sunder Khanna risked his life to fulfil his mission...
77:14...and was killed while carrying supplies to the battlefield
77:17When trouble struck...
77:20...he ordered his crew to bail out to safety...
77:23...while he, at risk to his own life, went on to throw the supplies
77:26Flt Lt. Sunder Khanna followed our Air Force tradition...
77:31...of bravery, courage...
77:33...self sacrifice and duty...
77:35...and his deed will be written in golden words...
77:38...in the history of the Indian Air Force
77:40For his heroism...
77:41...and service to his country and its citizens...
77:44...he's awarded the Param Vir Chakra
77:49Flt. Lt. Sunder Khanna's closest friend
79:13<i>I won't die, Radha. I'll certainly come back</i>
79:17<i>To you... for you</i>
79:45His words are still ringing in my ears
79:48"I'll be back, Radha. I'll certainly come back"
79:52"To you... for you"
79:56What a man he was
79:59So full of love
80:02He'd give his life for a friend
80:05And the world for his beloved
80:10He entrusted me with something before he left
80:13His beloved for his friend
80:19You knew, Radha
80:22I told him: "Sunder, don't get the wrong idea
80:27"I don't love you..."
80:36It's you I loved, Gopal
80:39Gopal, I love you
80:45Swear to me on your friend that you don't love me
80:50Tell me, Gopal. You do, don't you?
80:53Don't you? Tell me
83:55<i>Shall I call you "gracious one?"</i>
84:01<i>Shall I call you "my beautiful one?"</i>
84:06<i>Shall I call you "heart-stealer"?</i>
84:12<i>I am confused</i>
84:15<i>What shall I write to you?</i>
84:28- Let go of my sari - Let go of my letter
84:31- First return my letter - Why?
84:34You shouldn't read others love letters
84:36You shouldn't write them then
84:43<i>When you read my love letter...</i>
84:48<i>...don't be angry with me</i>
84:51<i>You are my life</i>
84:55<i>You are my devotion</i>
85:34<i>I used to compare you to the moon</i>
85:38<i>But her face is blemished</i>
85:49<i>I used to compare you to the sun</i>
85:53<i>But it is consumed by fire</i>
85:57<i>All I can say is: I am in love with you</i>
86:39<i>You are my sacred Ganges</i>
86:42<i>You are my sacred Jamuna</i>
86:54<i>You are so dear to my heart</i>
86:58<i>I think of you as my very own</i>
87:01<i>And if I die, my soul will wander restlessly...</i>
87:05<i>...in wait for you, wait for you</i>
88:25<i>You are my life</i>
88:29<i>You are my devotion</i>
88:55Gopal, my son
88:59- Come with me. - What is it?
89:03- Pay your respects to your father - What is it?
89:06Go on
89:08What is it?
89:09Greet your father, my magistrate
89:12- Magistrate? - You've become a magistrate
89:19May you live long! Pay your respects to your father
89:23You see, today your wish has been fulfilled
89:27Take a vow, son, that you'll always see that justice is done
89:33I swear that I'll always see that justice is done
89:36And do your first act of justice for me
89:38- What, mother? - Bring me a daughter-in-law, son
89:44Have I ever disobeyed you? Do as you like
89:47Then I'll go to the girl's parents today with an offer
89:50But who is the girl?
89:52As if you didn't know
89:54How should I? I practice law, I don't collect girls' names
89:59Who? Radha?
90:02All right
90:03What? Don't you like her?
90:08It's got nothing to do with liking
90:10What's the difference if the noose around your neck is silk or twine?
90:15All right, I know everything
90:23"When you read my love letter, you mustn't be angry with me
90:29"You are my life, you are my devotion"
93:14What are you looking at, Radha?
93:18My magistrate
93:22I may be magistrate to others...
93:26But to you... I am forever your captive
93:31My captive?
93:36My mother's coming to see yours
93:41Your mother's coming here? Why?
93:44She'll come and say:
93:47"There is a queen in your house...
93:50"...and a slave in mine"
93:53And then?
93:55Then your mother will take this slave
93:58And your mother will take a slave home too, isn't that so?
94:25Gopal! Come quick
94:35I've been waiting for hours. Where were you?
94:38What is it, mother?
94:39- I had news that made me dance - What is it?
94:42You'll dance with joy too
94:45Look! Sunder's alive!
94:47He's alive!
94:50Praise the Lord! What more can I want now?
94:53You're a magistrate, soon your wife will live in this house
94:57All that was missing was Sunder and God has given him back
95:00I'm going to the temple to give thanks
95:36I didn't know, Sunder, I had no idea
95:42A calamity was about to happen
95:48I almost snatched what was yours by right, friend
95:51I was about to betray your trust
95:55How could I have ever looked you in the eye again?
96:01How could a friend trust another friend again?
96:06How could one take a vow of friendship again?
96:10Thank God you're alive, Sunder. You're alive!
96:15You're alive
96:25Gopal, have you heard? Sunder's alive!
96:29He's alive, Gopal
96:30I'm so happy today
96:33I can't find words to express myself
96:37Gopal, Sunder's alive
96:41How could you be a groom without Sunder at your side?
96:44The wedding would have felt incomplete
96:47How could I marry without Sunder?
96:49Let's go quickly and meet his train
96:53Don't sit now, let's go
96:56- I'm not going - Why?
97:01What will Sunder say if he sees me at the station without you?
97:05That's just what worries me
97:08What will he say if he does see us together?
97:13He would say: "Congratulations, Gopal"
97:18"Be happy with Radha"
97:21And what will I say?
97:26You'll say: "Meet Radha
97:29"My Radha"
97:33He should be the first to hear our wedding news
97:39He should be the last to hear it
97:44Not sure if he should ever hear it
97:51Who knows what dreams he still has, what hopes
97:56What dreams? What hopes?
98:00Dreams and hopes of you
98:07My mother probably won't talk to your mother now
98:12No
98:14Why won't she? I'm asking you, why not?
98:19What will Sunder think if she does?
98:21Have you considered what I would think? Or my parents?
98:26Sunder is my friend, Radha, my closest friend
98:35Am I to be sacrificed on of your friendship's altar?
98:38My love! My life
98:44The first sacrifice I'm making is my own heart's happiness
98:49I ask for your sacrifice second
98:52I won't make this sacrifice, do you hear?
98:55I won't!
98:58Go! Go away!
99:08Oh God
100:05Aunty?
100:24May you live long!
100:29We got your wire today
100:31Isn't Gopal at home? Where is he?
100:47Well, my magistrate, how are you?
100:50How are you, Sunder?
100:51See for yourself: here I am, alive, in one piece
100:54I told you, I'm not an easy man to break
100:58You're right, Sunder. You came back at the right time
101:03After what we'd heard...
101:04...yet here you are
101:06Namaste, Sunder sahib
101:08Stand straight
101:09What are you doing?
101:11- Warding off the evil eye - Off me?
101:13Ward the evil eye off Gopal. He's vulnerable, I'm tough
101:18Even if I had died, I'd have come back to see Gopal
101:22May your enemies perish! Come, put it in the fire
101:27Hear that?
101:34You're reading the paper?
101:37A man is back from the dead. No news could be bigger
101:40That dead man is right here
101:45Leave it
101:48You haven't changed, Sunder
101:50A whirlwind in human shape
101:58But you have changed
102:00What do you mean?
102:01I can see you're not the same Gopal
102:04You don't look too happy to see me back
102:07I thought you'd be dancing with joy, shouting from the rooftops
102:11The things you say. How can I not be happy to see your back?
102:15The age for dancing with joy and shouting from the rooftops is over
102:21Cigarette?
102:24How's Radha?
102:28She's well, very well
102:33Gopal, even now when I say Radha's name or hear it...
102:38...the hair on my hand stands on edge
102:42And my heart calls out
102:44"She begins to sing, I play the tune
102:47"Call out to the life that has passed"
102:54Let's go to Radha's house
102:57I hope the wall has come down now that I've become somebody
103:01Why not? The poor thing has been waiting ages for you
103:05- Go to her - On my own?
103:07- I've so much work - Work?
103:10Fool, your most important work isn't done
103:12What work?
103:13Love, you idiot, love
103:15What did you achieve in these two years?
103:18Couldn't even find your own Radha?
103:22Damn it, Gopal
103:25Let's go
103:34Yes, sir, your no-good Sunder
103:42- Janaki, who's here - Who is it?
103:46Sit down, magistrate
103:48Sunder, my son
103:52Radha, see who's here
103:56Oh, Sunder, how I cried for you
103:59We had such strange news of you
104:28How are you, Sunder?
104:35I promised I'd come back
104:38See? Here I am. Alive and in one piece
104:44Why are you all standing? Sit down, Gopal
104:48You too... let me get your drinks
104:50I'll be right back
104:55I want to see...
104:58...to touch the thing that would not let me die
105:02- We heard... - You heard right
105:06Death was certain
105:08My plane burst into flames, no idea where I crashed
105:14For two years I was neither alive nor dead
105:17Dead?
105:19Yes, I had a head injury that caused a loss of memory
105:26I couldn't remember who I was
105:29I went from one doctor, one hospital to another
105:32And what was the first word I uttered when my memory came back?
105:35- What? - Your name, Radha, your name
105:39Only your name kept me alive
105:42They say a drowning man clings to a straw. I clung to your name
105:47In the dark clutches of death, I clung your name, to your memory
105:54You know what saved me?
105:59Your letter
106:00- My letter? - But I never...
106:03Have you forgotten? You asked me to post it
106:23I read that letter again and again
106:25I usually keep my wallet in my right pocket
106:28And your letter was in my right pocket
106:32Right here, next to my heart
106:34Just think that death bounced off your letter
106:38Believe me, Radha, I've crossed rivers of death to come to you
106:43It wasn't Radha's letter that saved you
106:49It was her prayers and her unwavering love...
106:53...that stood as a wall between you and death
107:05You're crying?
107:07Just hearing about it?
107:12What's there to cry about? I'm here with you, alive and well
107:18Here you are, next to me. Don't cry, Radha, please
107:25Don't cry, Radha
107:31Death is behind me, life is ahead of us...
107:35...to live together, to laugh together
107:39Now, smile. Smile
107:44Gopal, why don't you tell her?
107:59See, Gopal, she couldn't even hear it
108:04I'm bowled over by one thing, friend
108:07I lived for her smiles...
108:10Now her tears overwhelm me
108:15If hearing my story made her cry so much...
108:17...I wonder how much she cried, waiting for me
108:21How much Radha loves me
108:25Yes, she loves you very much
108:30What? Still standing? Sit down and eat
108:34I must get back to work, I'll be back
108:37We'll be back every day, aunty, right, Gopal?
108:47Did you see Sunder? How he's changed
108:51- The uniform suits him - Why not? He's an officer, like me
108:56I've been thinking... Gopal's mother hasn't said a word
109:00Could they have something else in mind?
109:03Before we consider anything, we should consult Gopal's mother
109:07Of course we will
109:15What is it, son?
109:17Get me married without delay
109:21I'll go to Radha's mother today
109:23No, not Radha's mother
109:27I'll marry the ugliest girl in the world, I'll learn to live with her
109:32Don't mention Radha's name again
109:37But what turned you off Radha in one day?
109:40My heart rejects her
109:42I liked Radha till yesterday, but not any more
109:45But, Gopal, I've already given my word!
109:48I asked for her hand on your behalf. For you
109:53So now refuse on my behalf
109:55Say that Gopal's changed his mind
109:59Don't beat around the bush
110:07There's no need to say any more. I heard you
110:11Don't listen to him, he doesn't know what he's saying or why...
110:16This is the boy's mother talking
110:19You are the girl's father
110:21Consider this:
110:23If your daughter enters this house against my will...
110:27...will she be happy?
110:29Forgive my impertinence but it's the truth
110:33I will not marry Radha
110:35Not at any cost
110:44Good thing I didn't stay longer to hear any more
110:48Tried to save some dignity
110:49What choice did you have? Stay and begged?
110:54I'll meet Gopal once more and ask him plainly
110:57Not Gopal, go and see Sunder
110:59Gopal is a magistrate but Sunder is an officer
111:02He dotes on Radha, always has
111:06Remember? He once asked for her hand, and we refused
111:11He lacks nothing. He's good-looking, young
111:16She must marry where she's respected
111:25What is this?
111:26Invitation to my wedding
111:30I should envy your fortune
111:33I too have a letter for you
111:36What is it?
111:37Your posting order
111:39Where?
111:40Air Force advisor, London
111:44Wedding in India, honeymoon in Europe
111:59Hurry up, everyone's waiting
112:10What is it, Radha?
112:14Nothing
112:16Your joke has become a reality. I am getting married - to Sunder
112:50Wait! The knot's come undone
112:56What are you staring at, Gopal? Tie it with your own hands...
113:01...so tight it'll never come apart again
114:27Sunder, I am reborn again today
114:36I'm entering a new world
114:40I have left my home, my life, my world far behind me
114:47I want to forget the past now that we are together
114:52I want only one image in my eyes...
114:56...in my heart...
114:58...of you, Sunder
115:01What is this?
115:03Worshipping me while I'm still alive?
115:07- Promise me - What's this?
115:08Never let us be apart
115:10- Get up, your place isn't there - No, promise me
115:12But what's all this? Get up, Radha
115:17Get up
115:23Your place is here
115:26In my eyes... in my heart
115:30Promise me, I'll always be yours.
115:34Let no one come between us
115:38No one ever will. No one
115:45He looks so good, doesn't he?
115:48See how lifeless our photos looked without this one?
115:54Two things uphold my life
115:57Gopal's friendship and your love. I couldn't live without either
116:06What's this?
116:09Sad on a day like today?
116:12No, I'm...I'm smiling
116:18You look so lovely when you smile
116:22It's like a million stars have tied tiny bells on their feet
116:31The moon and the moonlight are playing a melody of love
116:38Then...
116:42Do you love me a lot?
116:45A whole lot
116:48Do you really love me so much?
118:44- What are you looking at? - You
118:49Remember I used to say, I'd show Radha the whole world
118:56Everyone will be gawping. I'll take her away
120:14- Where did the coin fall? - Over there
120:19What did you ask for?
120:22My wish was...
120:23...happiness for you and peace for me
120:28- Now you make a wish - Me?
120:31What can I ask for?
120:35I asked God for you and got everything
120:38I don't need to raise my hands in prayer now
122:04- Are you happy? - A whole lot
122:07- And you? - Me?
123:41<i>"Gopal, I'm writing from Venice</i>
123:43<i>"Need I tell you how happy I am in Europe with Radha at my side</i>
123:47<i>"It feels like paradise</i>
123:49<i>"But something's missing and that's you, my friend</i>
123:54<i>"By the time you read this, I'll be at the top of the Eiffel Tower</i>
123:59<i>"I wish you'd join us</i>
124:00<i>"Can't you do this much for a friend? Come!</i>
124:03<i>"If not Paris, then Switzerland"</i>
127:03Give me some money. I'm getting my hair done
127:06What for?
127:11What is a "bouffant?"
127:14Oh, that?
127:16You mean that nest women have on their heads? Yuck!
127:19Yuck? It costs 80 new francs
127:2280?
127:24Radha, hair buns really suit Indian women
127:28Make a hair bun
127:29And put some flowers around it
127:32- No, I want a bouffant - Sit down, I'll do it
127:35A tall nest to impress all of Paris
127:37Say the word, and I'll add a few birds in it
127:39I'm happy to be your hairdresser for 80 francs, Mrs Sunder
127:46No way
128:56We almost died
129:00This window-shopping almost killed us
129:02To go shopping, one must stay alive
130:56Sit down and listen
130:59Did you see the price of that horrid purse?
131:03780 new francs!
131:06Did you see the price of that stupid bagpipe? 575, new francs!
131:09So? We'll skip dinner
131:11Great, we've already skipped lunch.
131:14If we skip dinner, what'll we live on?
131:16The air made by that stupid bagpipe?
131:18You don't understand, Radha. We're tourists
131:22Can't buy both things
131:25- Then we buy the purse - No way! The bagpipe
131:28There are two beautiful things in the world: a woman and bagpipes
131:32Both make music
131:34Too much poetry... right, we buy neither!
131:37So now you're cross
131:40Since the world began, men have always had to make sacrifices
131:44I too am a man
131:46Here... go and buy your purse
131:49Go on, then!
132:50If their photos look like this, wonder what's the real thing
132:52Hurry up or we'll miss the showtime
132:58You've got it wrong
133:01We are not going. I am. Just me!
133:05- No way. We are going! - No, just me
133:12So this is what you want to see alone?
133:15It's not a place for decent women
133:18But it's ok for decent men?
133:21Sure, it's different for men
133:24Different for men?
133:25The world moves on but men stay stuck, old-fashioned and outdated
133:31That's right, outdated
133:33And remember, if I can't go somewhere, neither can you
133:38And what if I do?
133:40In your dreams...
133:55That's marriage for you
134:04Ever since marriage was invented, women think it's a jail
134:09Men are the prisoners and they the jailers
134:13But, madam jailer, prisoners are known to escape sometimes
134:39Catch! There's your bagpipe!
134:51What's this?
134:53The show's started. Sit down, front seat
135:25Horrible. It shames me to see this
135:28I see, but you feel no shame watching it there
135:31It's different. Those women aren't housewives
135:34It's their job: to entertain men
135:39And isn't it a housewife's job to entertain her husband?
135:46Those who don't lose their men
135:49What are you saying? Disgusting!
135:51"Disgusting" yourself and your ancient ideas
135:54Ancient? Who says my ideas are ancient?
135:56I do, your wife
136:00Your ideas are ancient, and you're an old man
136:04Me, an old man?
136:06Yes, old!
136:08<i>O Lord, what shall I do? I'm saddled with an old man</i>
136:44<i>When everyone went to the garden, my old man tagged along</i>
136:52<i>They all brought back flowers, my old man brought back a cabbage</i>
137:00<i>My reputation was shot, I'm saddled with an old man</i>
137:37<i>I'm as pretty as a doll, I can walk like a peahen</i>
137:45<i>His hair is going white...</i>
137:49<i>...like a granddad</i>
137:55<i>How's this going to end? I'm saddled with an old man</i>
138:30<i>My old man brought me to the land of fairies</i>
138:38<i>When I lifted my veil, he got enraged</i>
138:46<i>Everything's gone wrong</i>
138:48<i>I'm saddled with an old man</i>
140:45Sit down
140:59I'm freezing
141:10I'm dying
141:12I am turning into ice
141:15Drink this, you'll turn into a flame
141:19Drink up
141:43Look
141:50Shall we go there?
144:06Careful!
144:08It's very cold
144:11What shall we do?
145:07What is it?
145:08I don't know
145:10The church bell rang and my pulse stopped
145:15Stopped?
145:18- It should be racing today - Why?
145:22It's your birthday, isn't it?
145:28Happy birthday
145:30Tell me, what should I give you?
145:33You've given me everything, and I've taken it. Your love
145:39I'll give you something to make everything pale in comparison
145:46The world is nothing
145:48Truly, Radha, when you see it you'll agree
146:07Get ready quickly. I'll get the phone
146:11What's the joke? But why?
146:16All right, by the waterfall?
148:10Close your eyes
149:16Here's your gift! Terrific, right?
149:22- Did we keep you waiting? - No
149:28Well, Radha? How do you like my present?
149:33Gopal, your coming here has brought warmth to these mountains
149:38Happy birthday, Radha
149:40Say thank you, Radha
149:42He's come here from Bombay via London, just for you
149:47I'm sorry, I came empty-handed on Radha's birthday
149:52Your hands may be empty but your heart isn't
149:56My friend, I'm a trader in hearts. I buy and sell them
150:01You two talk, I'll go and arrange lunch. Meet you there
150:12How are you, Radha?
150:16How do I look? Don't I look happy?
150:21- Maybe you can't see my joy - What are you saying?
150:29Why have you come?
150:31Why?
150:33Don't ask me, ask Sunder
150:36So many letters, phone calls, cables, with just one theme
150:41"Gopal, come today, come now!"
150:43For your sake, for his own. I couldn't refuse
150:49You never could refuse, right?
150:52Didn't you know that one look could reveal the whole story?
150:56Destroy everything?
150:59Those who make sacrifices don't come to gloat
151:09Whatever you may think, I'm here for Sunder's sake
151:14You've come for his sake, now leave for mine...
151:17...and don't come back into my life again
151:23A married woman's life is like this rainbow that can sway in a storm
151:30It cannot be seen in flowing water
151:33It's there and yet not there
151:56Not there, sit here
152:01In front of me
152:02I haven't seen you both together for ages
152:07Say something
152:10- How are you, Radha? - Fine, thank you
152:14- How are you? - Fine, thank you
152:17Done? Thank you, I am fine
152:20Have you nothing else to talk about?
152:24- Does your father write to you? - Yes, he does
152:29- Is your mother back from Haridwar? - She'll come back
152:31Enough of your talk!
152:33Now I'll talk
152:34Which cities did you visit in Europe? What did you see?
152:38Nothing
152:42My friend, I will show you Europe
152:45We will travel together
152:47We'll stay in the same hotel. Visit the sights together
152:52Well, Radha? Didn't I say? Two things uphold my life
152:59You
153:01And him
153:04I can't live without either
153:06I am so glad you've come. The world is a happy place now
153:11Let me order food
153:29Gopal will sit here
153:33Radha will sit next to Gopal. And me? Here
153:38In front of Gopal and Radha, like old times
154:10Lost in thought?
154:12Come and see what I've arranged
154:16We're together again, on your birthday, and in Europe!
154:20So here's the plan: first to the casino for cocktails and dance
154:24Gopal must see the Swiss casino
154:27We'll dine here in the evening
154:33- A good plan? - Very good
154:35- Will Gopal like it? - Why shouldn't he?
154:38But look, he's not here yet. I'll call him
155:04Amazing! They say he's checked out
155:52<i>I'm a married woman</i>
155:54<i>Those who make sacrifices don't come to gloat</i>
157:14I couldn't bring much. This is all
157:17There was no need to bring anything. How was Europe?
157:20Wonderful, the time just flew by
157:23Are you happy?
157:27Yes, I'm very happy, Sakina
157:32But...one day Gopal turned up
157:38In Europe?
157:41Sunder invited him to come for my birthday
157:46So what? Your affair with Gopal ended ages ago
157:51- No, Sakina... I'm scared - Scared of what?
157:56Sunder can't live without me...
157:59...but he can't live without Gopal either
158:02Even if Gopal avoids us, Sunder will drag him back
158:06And if Gopal comes into my house, I don't know if my house will survive
158:12You don't know Sunder
158:21You'll see, Gopal. Radha will be overjoyed to see you
158:30You're so late today
158:35I kept looking at the door, then at the clock
158:39Time dragged
158:51It took ages to persuade him to come
158:54I got married and lost a friend
158:56- Have you lost me? - Sure, I have
158:59Look at him, Radha. He meets us in Europe and runs away
159:03We come back here, he runs away here too
159:07Hard work bringing him here
159:09- Nice house, Sunder - It's your first visit, isn't it?
159:14He just wouldn't come
159:17I had to swear on our childhood, our friendship...
159:19He melted only when I said your name
159:22Forget it
159:24Sit down, you two. I'm going to change
159:30Sit down
159:46I didn't choose to come
159:49I was brought here
159:52Believe me, I didn't want to
159:55But Sunder... How can I explain it to Sunder?
159:59What pretext can I use?
160:10<i>We both drank a drop and left the drink house</i>
160:15<i>We were swaying</i>
160:21<i>The glass bottle bent down to the goblet...</i>
160:25<i>...and said a few words</i>
160:33- Some soda and some glasses - Right away
160:40Now I must say something to you
160:43Yes?
160:45All my wishes have come true, except one
160:49- What? - To see you married
160:54Look at me, can a man ask for more?
160:58A nice house, a wife like Radha, a friend like you
161:02Life is fulfilled
161:07Not everyone is as lucky as you, and have all their wishes come true
161:12Why not?
161:14Anything is possible if you try
161:15You may even find a wife like Radha. I'll find her for you
161:20I'll never forget the favour you did me, Gopal
161:25- What favour? - You got me married
161:29You made me Radha's husband
161:31Forget it. Let's talk of something else
161:35That reminds me
161:37I had a friend at the front
161:39A Hindi poet who joined the Air Force
161:42He used to read me Radha's letters
161:45You know I couldn't read Hindi
161:47What I know I learned from him
161:50Seeing you and Radha, his story comes back to me
161:54What story?
161:58He too loved a girl. But she wasn't like Radha
162:03He also had a friend... he wasn't a friend like you
162:07So when he read Radha's letters...
162:09...tears would fill his eyes, he would sigh and say:
162:14"Sunder, you're very lucky
162:18"You have a friend like Gopal
162:20"A sweetheart like Radha"
162:23He'd say that and then hum
162:25Always the same song, a heartbreaking song
162:29What song?
162:33When I think of that song, my hair stands on end
162:37Do you want to hear it?
162:39I'll sing it for you
163:08<i>A friend is no longer a friend</i>
163:14<i>A beloved is no longer a beloved</i>
163:20<i>O life, I can no longer trust in you</i>
164:12<i>I left in your care the treasure of my love</i>
164:20<i>You were that friend, none other</i>
164:28<i>You were my fellow-traveller on the path of life</i>
164:36<i>You were that friend</i>
164:40<i>None other</i>
164:44<i>All secrets are unravelled</i>
164:48<i>A confidant is no longer a confidant</i>
164:52<i>O life, I can no longer trust in you</i>
165:21<i>She embraced me lovingly</i>
165:26<i>Speaking in a tearful voice</i>
165:29<i>Who else was that but you? None other</i>
165:37<i>On the day that I departed, pearl-like tears filled her eyes</i>
165:45<i>Who else was that but you?</i>
165:49<i>None other</i>
165:53<i>The night of intoxication is over</i>
165:57<i>Its effects no longer linger</i>
166:01<i>O life, I can no longer trust in you</i>
166:50What's wrong, Sunder?
166:55Nothing
166:59The song reminds me of the singer
167:02That dying man loved her so much
167:05Who?
167:07The woman who ruined his life by marrying his friend
167:13I'm not amazed at the girl, Radha
167:15I'm amazed at the friend, Gopal
167:18How could he go to his friend's fiancée and say "I love you"?
167:22"I love you"
167:27He should have died...
167:30...the way that poet died...
167:33...with the girl's name on his lips, her memory in his heart
167:44The poet managed to express his feelings in his song
167:49But, friend...
167:51There are some who suffer as much but remain silent
167:58They can say nothing. I had better go
168:17I told you once before, I'll say it again today
168:22Don't come to my house...
168:25...even if Sunder calls you
168:29I beg you
168:55<i>Don't come to my house...</i>
168:57<i>...even if Sunder calls you</i>
168:59<i>I beg you</i>
169:52You'll never change. Always late
169:56Have you ever thought of those who wait for you?
170:04What is it?
170:06You didn't even notice my lovely sari
170:09- It's beautiful - Without looking?
170:13I'll look and say: it's nice, very nice, first-class
170:16Don't sit down, Sunder. We're already late
170:19- So what if we're a little late? - It'll be terrible
170:22Wg Cdr Mehra is throwing a party for our wedding anniversary
170:26Come on, get ready
170:31He's invited a lot of people
170:33I'm in no mood for a party
170:39What's this? You're sitting down?
170:45What happened to you today?
170:47Don't ask, Radha
170:49What's happened today has never happened before
170:52Gopal saw me and turned his back away
170:57I called out to him
170:59He heard me but pretended not to hear
171:02I followed him home and was told he wasn't in
171:08- I am stunned - Can I ask you something?
171:12Why do you keep going to Gopal?
171:14If he avoids us, why should we chase him?
171:16- He's my friend, Radha! - Is he?
171:19You are his friend
171:20From now on, I won't go to his house or invite him to ours
171:25There are other houses we can go to, other people we can meet
171:31Get up! Change your clothes
171:35And change your mood too
171:54What is this? My eye's twitching
172:09How does this necklace look?
172:15It's nice. But what's this? Nothing is matching
172:19Why?
172:21You look like a queen, not the wife of a soldier like me
172:26What shall I wear, then?
172:28Why don't you wear that set of...
172:31Here's the key. I'll wear whatever you choose
172:34- Why are you cross? - You never like what I wear
172:37Not at all, they're lovely, first-class
172:40Go and get it
173:31"When you read my love letter...
173:36"...don't be angry
173:40"You are my life
173:43"You are my devotion
173:58"You are my sacred Ganges
174:01"You are my scared Jumna
174:06"You are so precious to me
174:09"I think of you as my very own
174:13"And if I die, my soul will wander restlessly...
174:30No! Don't read it
174:33You mustn't read it
174:38Who wrote this letter?
174:41Who wrote it?
174:44No one. I don't know who wrote it
174:47I never read it properly
174:52I'll get the phone. It must be them. Please get ready quickly
174:56They've call three times. I'll say we're on our way
175:03Yes, it's me
175:09He's just arrived
175:11We're leaving
175:14We'll be there in 15 minutes
175:16Yes, we're coming
175:45I said we'd be there in 15 minutes
175:47But we must leave now
175:52Mrs Mehra is so odd. Her parties are like a military parade
175:56Sit here! Don't stand there, sit! Why are you sitting? Stand up
176:02Eat this, eat that
176:05She loves feeding people
176:07She should be put in charge of the Mess
176:20What's this? Still not ready?
176:24Think of all those people waiting for us. Let me
176:43You look good
176:48Shall we go?
177:09I forgot my handkerchief
177:45Picking up your handkerchief?
177:51Why did you need an excuse?
177:56I was just wondering...
178:00..why did you have to tear it up?
178:03What should I have done?
178:05Kept it safe all my life?
178:10Why did you keep it till now?
178:13To show it to you
178:19To show it to me?
178:23Then why tear it up?
178:25Why did you tear it up?
178:28I got scared
178:29- Of whom? - Of you
178:33Why?
178:35You might have misunderstood
178:37- Who wrote it? - I told you, I don't know!
178:40Tell me the truth. Who wrote it?
178:42I told you the truth, I don't know!
178:46- When did you get it? - You weren't here
178:48Before the wedding... you were at the front
178:51Why didn't you show it to him then?
178:54- To whom? - Gopal
178:57What could Gopal do?
179:00What I'm going to do now
179:06No, Sunder, don't!
179:18Until I find out who wrote this letter... l will burn
179:24The day I find out who he is...
179:28...I'll fire straight into his heart
179:45This toast is not to Squadron Leader Sunder...
179:49...whose bravery has been the pride of his squadron...
179:53...the Indian Air Force...
179:55...and the whole nation
179:57It is to a person whose name didn't get printed in the papers
180:02Who did not get a medal for bravery
180:04It is to Sunder's beloved, now his wife: Radha
180:13At the time when everyone thought Sunder was dead...
180:18...it was only Radha's heart which refused to believe it
180:27Radha, what snatched Sunder from the clutches of death...
180:31...was your pure love and unwavering faith
180:35We are proud of women like you
180:51Don't drink any more
180:54You should drink too, Radha
180:57This toast was to your love
180:59To your faith
181:03Wasn't it?
181:06What are you doing?
181:08What? Today is our wedding anniversary
181:11This was the day we got married
181:16We became one
181:19And today, for the first time, we've understood each other
181:23Recognised each other
181:28Let's drink to our new acquaintance, new understanding
181:50Radha will sing for us
181:54I don't know how to sing
181:56Don't know or forgotten?
182:00Come on, Radha, sing
182:06You tell them, Sunder. Help me out. I can't sing now
182:13Why?
182:17She won't only sing for you, she'll dance too
182:29It's the right day and the right time
182:33If you don't sing today, when will you sing?
182:48Very well. If I don't sing today, when will I sing?
182:52Today I'll do whatever you want
182:56For you... for your sake
183:29<i>Oh my love</i>
183:34<i>We are two bodies, but one life</i>
183:38<i>We are two desires of one heart</i>
184:21<i>My very own love, we are now one</i>
184:25<i>United like the rivers Ganges and Jumna</i>
184:30<i>The truth is what we live</i>
184:34<i>The past is just a passing dream</i>
184:43<i>This earth is the abode of humankind</i>
184:48<i>We are just human too</i>
186:54If only I could find out who wrote it
187:07Who has written this letter?
187:14If only I could tell you who wrote it.
187:19If only...
187:43I knew it, Radha. I told you this letter would cause trouble one day
187:48But you wouldn't listen to me
187:50He keeps asking the same question
187:52Who's written it? Who's written it?
187:56I just don't know what to say
187:58You should have said it was Gopal
188:00It's not easy to say that, Gopal
188:02He brought out his loaded revolver
188:06It's not me he wants to shoot but the man who wrote the letter
188:12Then let the gun empty its bullets
188:16I'll go to Sunder and tell him everything
188:19"I wrote the letter but Radha is yours, yours alone"
188:25How long can three lives be tormented?
189:01You, here?
189:03I've come to say something
189:09Go on
189:13Are you very fond of me?
189:19Do I have to tell you how fond?
189:25How fond?
189:29So much that if you asked for my life...
189:32...I'd say what a paltry thing you were asking
189:35If you kill me, I'll write a suicide note before I die...
189:39....saying I killed myself
189:41Do you want more?
189:49I could never repay you for what you did for me
189:54Anyone else would have married Radha himself
189:58- Stop this nonsense - Let me speak today
190:03What you did for me no friend could do for another
190:09Radha's parents wanted you to marry her
190:12And I was believed to be dead
190:16But you kept your promise
190:21You promised that no man would come between me and Radha
190:29If you hadn't kept your promise, I would have died. Died
190:48Remember?
190:51I used to say that one should always cry on a friend's shoulder
190:55And a friend should lend a shoulder on the last journey
191:07Now you see how much I love you?
191:12Let's forget all this
191:18What did you come to say?
191:25Nothing
191:40I couldn't even tell Gopal
192:21Come here
192:31Say it once
192:33"You are my everything, you are my life"
192:37Say it
192:40You are my everything, you are my life
192:46<i>She embraced me lovingly</i>
192:50<i>Speaking in a tearful voice</i>
192:59<i>None other</i>
193:03<i>On the day that I departed, pearl-like tears filled her eyes</i>
193:11<i>Who else was that but you?</i>
193:20<i>The night of intoxication is over</i>
193:24<i>Its effects no longer linger</i>
193:28<i>O life, I can no longer trust in you</i>
193:37Why curse life? Why not tell Radha you don't trust her?
193:46You want to say there's no place for me here
193:49Isn't that what you think? So say it
193:52Say, "Radha, there's no place for you here any more"
193:57If you want, kill me. Throw me out of the house
194:02But for God's sake, stop this song!
194:11I can't take its poisoned arrows
194:14I can't take it
194:30You don't like this song?
194:37I won't sing it, then
196:12I'm going
196:14Where?
196:17I don't know
196:24Are you leaving your house?
196:26Are you leaving me?
196:33Don't go, Radha
196:39Don't leave your home, Radha
196:49Don't leave your home
196:53You know, all my happiness, my life, my love is in this house
196:59It is all in your love
197:01I can't live without you...
197:04...but I can't live with you
197:08I can't bear to see you so unhappy, Sunder
197:14I married you to bring you joy, not sorrow
197:20And when you...
197:22You haven't given me sorrow
197:26I've given it to myself
197:28But why?
197:31Do I need to tell you?
197:34Then how can I help relieve your pain?
197:38What can I do to make you trust me?
197:41I swear that since we got married...
197:44...not even a shadow of another entered my mind
197:49Look at me. Look into my eyes
197:54What do you see?
197:59I see only love in your eyes. Love and truth
198:09But when I touch you...
198:14...I feel that someone else touched your body before me
198:20Then I start to burn with jealousy
198:24I burn in its flames
198:26I'm haunted by the demons of suspicion
198:29Their shadows chase me, tear me to pieces
198:32Sometimes you seem like a shadow too
198:34And I start suspecting you. And then I cannot control myself
198:39All the foundations of my life begin to crumble
198:43I don't know what to do
198:45I can't be angry with you. Yet I can't blame anyone else
198:49Tell me, what can I do? What can I do?
199:05I feel like putting this gun to my head and blowing my brains out
199:30The bullet was fired
199:33I only managed to cling to Sunder and the gun swerved
199:37What am I to do now, Gopal?
199:40I can't live without Sunder, I can't live with him
199:43The letter's like a dagger in his hand, he plays with it night and day
199:47Sometimes he stabs his own heart, sometimes mine
199:51One can bear one's own suffering
199:54But I can't bear to see him suffer
199:58That's why I want to...
200:02Have you gone mad?
200:14I just came to tell you to look after your friend
200:19He has only two things in his life: my love and your friendship
200:24My love's overcast by doubt
200:27But he can still live for your friendship
200:31Look after him
200:50Radha's gone, Gopal
200:55Radha is gone? Why don't you say she ran away?
201:00Yes, Sunder! Radha's run away!
201:04And she's run away from you! Here she is
201:13You, here?
201:17I'll tell you
201:19Radha ran away from your cruelty
201:23My cruelty?
201:25How would you know who wronged whom?
201:30Ask her what hell she left me in and came here
201:34You don't know how I've been hurt
201:38I can't conceal the hurt any more
201:43How could I tell you that my trust's been shattered?
201:46She's done it. Radha, my wife!
201:50- It's a lie! A lie! - A lie?
201:53Is it a lie?
201:55Then ask her, Gopal
201:57Who is the man whose shadow is cast over our lives?
202:01The man whose life Radha values more than hers or mine
202:06Who is he?
202:08Ask her who he is
202:09Don't ask her, ask me!
202:12I know whose life Radha cherishes more than any other life
202:17And I know whose shadow is cast on your life
202:19No, Gopal!
202:22You know, Gopal?
202:25I know the man who wrote that letter
202:29Who?
202:30I wrote it, Sunder, I did! Now hear why I wrote it
202:37I was in love with Radha
203:15It's a lie...it's a lie
203:20It's a lie! A lie!
203:25Radha, say it's a lie
203:34Gopal, just once, lie to me and tell me it's a lie
203:38It's a lie, my friend!
203:40The tragedy is that it's not a lie
203:44I didn't have the courage to speak the truth
203:48Now you don't have the courage to hear it
203:52The truth is that I loved Radha very deeply
203:56Just as deeply as you did
204:01The difference was that you said it and I didn't
204:05For years that love smouldered in my heart...
204:09...but never found expression in words
204:12Because you loved Radha. You, Sunder!
204:16And you were my friend
204:18I kept silent because of our friendship
204:21When the news of your death broke out, so did my love
204:26Radha and I were going to get married
204:29Then we got the news that you were alive
204:32So I stepped back, Sunder
204:34I sacrificed love for friendship
204:36And Radha became yours, yours alone
204:39The day Radha entered your house, she was as pure as the River Ganges
204:44And today she left your house just as pure
204:47Now take your gun and shoot me
204:58Wonderful, Gopal
205:02Another sacrifice
205:05Standing on your lofty tower, throwing alms to the beggar
205:10But I'm not a beggar. I'm your friend
205:15I was your friend. But you didn't understand
205:20If you had, none of this would have happened
205:23If you had told me how you felt...
205:27If you had let the fire out of your heart...
205:30...these three lives would not have been consumed by its flames
205:41What you have done for me, you should've let me do, friend
205:51If you had said the word, I'd have stepped out of your way
205:59Gopal, what have you done?
206:06Anyway...but we can turn back the time
206:12What was ruined before can happen now
206:16No, it can't happen. It can't. I tell you and I tell you
206:20You who loved me and you who married me
206:25Who gave you the right to dictate my life once again?
206:30What do you both think I am?
206:34It's true that I loved you
206:37But I'm not the first girl in the world to have loved
206:43Love is a compulsion. It happens
206:47Marriage is a duty that one must nurture, and I've nurtured it
206:53Love may suffer, weep, smoulder...
206:57...but duty is a rock, not wax
207:00And I'm not wax either, Sunder
207:02Not a market commodity that goes from one master to another
207:06Wonderful
207:08First, one friend offers me as a sacrifice
207:11Then the other does
207:16No, Radha. No more sacrificing
207:20The one who should go is going
207:24Before you go, tell me where I should go
207:27What do I do with my bridal mark?
207:29If I remove it, who can ever make me a wife again?
207:33And these bangles... who shall I ask to make me wear them again?
207:38Tell me!
207:39Look at me
207:41I am the one you took home as a bride
207:46Remember the marriage vows which you made before God
207:54Should the man who took those vows...
207:58...burn in flames all his life?
208:03No, Radha. Taking marriage vows together isn't love
208:09Nor is the union of two bodies
208:12A true union, Radha...
208:14...is when two hearts meet
208:17When two souls meet and become God
208:21Our union is not a true union
208:25A true union was between you and Gopal
208:43What have you done, Gopal?
208:49Sunder... nothing
208:52It's nothing
208:55One of us three had to go
208:58The one who has to go is going
209:19You used to say one should always cry on a friend's shoulder
209:25And a friend should lend a shoulder on the last journey
209:31My friend, you left the city
209:37I'm leaving the world
209:42On leaving, you asked me to promise you one thing
209:48Now, I'm asking you to promise me something
210:06Take Radha back to her paradise
210:13True union is between the sacred rivers Ganges and Jumna
210:19And so the river Saraswati had to vanish
210:55<i>You are my sacred Ganges, You are my sacred Jumna</i>
211:10<i>You are so precious to me</i>
211:13<i>I think of you as my very own</i>
211:17<i>And if I die, my soul...</i>
211:21<i>...will wander restlessly, waiting for you</i>
211:26<i>Waiting for you</i>
211:49<i>May you never be angry with me</i>
