"You must have very little time for me, isn't it?" "You expect me to say what I have to as quickly as I can... so you can show me your back and go back to your love-filled life" "What right did you have to simply walk out of my life... without as much as meeting me or giving me an explanation?" "Now don't tell me you don't have words to explain what you did was right" "Even if the world says what you did was right... even if you claim what you did was right... was it necessary for you to severe relations with me... to preserve the ones you had?" "Whatever anyone has to say, at heart I'll always believe... that you are unfaithful" "Yes." "I am unfaithful" "You are right, I am unfaithful" "But do you know whom I have been most unfaithful to?" "To my own self" "What disloyalty have I shown to you, compared to the one I showed myself?" "In a life full of illusions, loneliness and hollowness..." "I have been faithful to everyone else..." "I gave happiness to everyone... as for my own happiness..." "I had it snatched away" "Things aren't as you imagine them to be" "You can't cast stones at me" "I'm like the crumbling wall that is itself looking for support" "How am I going to lead my life?" "I have done a great wrong to you." "Please forgive me" "forgive me..."

"I've been your lover over the ages"" "You guys keep poking fun at someone or the other" "Anjali... where have you been?" "I've been looking for you" "I kept trying your cell-phone all morning" "I wanted you to receive me at the airport" "But you weren't taking any calls." "Had you switched off your cell?" "Well, yes..." "Look who's here to meet you" "You're meeting them for the first time" "I myself ran into them after 3 years" "This is my closest friend, Dil." "(Dil:" "Heart)..." "Dil Arora" "Hi, sis-in-law." "I'm Dil..." "Dil Arora... here in the city of Delhi, where the large-hearted dwell" "But I'm not going to call you bhabhi (sister-in-law)" "And that's Dil's wife." "Pallavi" "Pallavi's such a serious and boring name!" "A few of my male friends call me Pallu anyway" "Pallavi and Dil often keep visiting Delhi from Jamshedpur" "Jamshedpur!" "It's going to make her think we're farmers." "Right, babs?" "Dil Arora's name figures in forbes' list of the thousand richest Indians" "But 999 Indians are still richer than I am" "That includes your husband Aditya sahni so what am I doing in your lap, darling?" "I ought to be in Aditya's lap" "Bad girl!" "I'm going to bite you!" "This friend of mine from Jamshedpur is getting worse by the day!" "I'm feeling so shy..." " Really?" "Who could've named her Anjali then?" "She ought to have been called Bharti (Indian)" "Anjali, don't take their humour seriously" "Believe me, their jokes are the life of every party" "Enough of keeping yourself and your wife lonely, Adi..." "Else, Dil Arora will always remain a notch under Aditya sahni" "How did you outdo me and bag the Hanten and Toubro contract?" "C'mon now... tell me the secret." " It's no secret, Dil" "Hard work always bears fruit" "No wonder you are my friend, philosopher and guide, Adi for a friend, I could lay down my life" "If I give away my heart to someone, I give it away for good!" "Discuss those boring things, while I freshen up" "Anjali, where's the wash room?" "Oh yes, go and come back hot!" "Why do women always keep going to the wash-room?" "Can you tell me why?" " Pallavi just told you!" "She's gone to freshen up." " Freshen up more...?" "How much more?" "We're already trapped." "How much more are they going to trap us?" "What happened?" "By the time I got home yesterday..." "Aditya had already arrived" "What are we going to do now?" "Simple." "Leave everything and come to me" "Think before you talk..." " I've thought it over" "I don't want you to face any more tension come here." "We'll get together and find a solution" "I can't come right now." "I'm calling from the nursery" "I'll drop the kids home and try and find an excuse" "I will contact you" "I'll be waiting for you sure." "I'll be there" "You...?" " Yes" "As usual, right behind you" "Whom did you say, "I'll be there" to?" "Jappi." " Jappi...?" "Surprised to see me here?" "Have you noticed?" "I'm a changed man" "The one who had left for Germany was another man... the one who has returned, is someone else" "Keeping that in mind, a father and a husband... has come to give his wife and daughters a surprise" "And sweetheart, the surprises don't end here" "I've got a huge surprise for you." "Guess what?" "What?" " Papa..." "Gauri and Pooja!" "Shocked to see Papa here?" "I've shocked your Mummy too!" "Papa's now going to deliver the big surprise!" "I've told my secretary that we're going away for 2 and a half months" "On vacation!" "There's going to be a lot of traffic today, because it's the Republic Day" "That's why I'm taking a train" "I'll meet you at the shahdra station." "Nobody will recognise us there" "You...?" "Yes, me." "Always right behind you" "People say the husband and wife start resembling each other after a few years" "But that they even start thinking alike..." "I had no idea" "I'm in this metro-rail of Delhi, so are you..." "Actually..." " Yes, I know, I know" "We've all been listening to the great strides India is taking... and the metro-rail is something we've all been talking about" "You decided to check it out, right?" "So did I!" ""We're its blossoms..."" ""and this is our rosegarden"" ""India - the best in the world"" "I say!" "What the hell are you doing here...?" "What are you the two of you doing here on the sly?" "Celebrating Independence." "What else?" " Like us...?" "I told the wife, let me give you a ride on the metro-rail!" "You too...?" " Great stuff from the Indian government!" "We're no longer lagging behind any nation in the world" "What say, babs...?" "We're going places!" "When I sat in the metro in London..." "I thought we couldn't dream of having it in India" "But here in Delhi, what a surprise...!" "Forget about the train, they've made such a beautiful station too" "Oh yes!" "You've hit the nail on the head." "Beautiful station too" "The train is like the husband;" "the station is like the wife" "Hey!" "What am I seeing...?" "What on earth am I seeing?" ""I see the gentleman hiding..."" ""I see signs of the devastation that is about to be unleashed on my heart!"" "Hey, Adi... sir!" "I've kept hearing and hearing your songs over and over again!" "I can't believe it!" "Here you are at the shahdra station... right in front of my eyes!" "When did you come to India?" "You have a show here, right?" " Yes" "I'm your biggest fan!" "Dil Arora!" "I hope I'm not dreaming." "Can I touch you, sir...?" "Hey!" "Here in flesh and blood!" " What happened?" "This is Aditya sahni, my best friend and a big shot of Delhi" "Take it easy, Dil." "Take it easy." " Can't stop my voice, buddy!" "Raja, let me introduce you to the rest of them" "This is my lovely sister-in-law." "Anjali sahni." "His wife" "And this is my wife." "Sexy sexy... so loving!" "How about having lunch with us?" "Let's go, if you're free?" "Maybe another day." "Not right now" "But it's nice meeting you folks so you're making excuses, I see!" "Never mind, never mind..." "I'll catch hold of you another day!" "No problem!" "What are you doing at shahdra station?" " I'm waiting for someone" "I'm expecting someone..." " Who?" "C'mon!" "Why're you bothering him?" "Let's go..." "Oh no..." " c'mon!" "C'mon!" "What a singer!" "What a fantastic singer... sorry, my friend is a bit of a nut." "But it was nice meeting you" "This is unbelievable, Adi!" "Let me sing a song for you..." ""the train hurtles ahead..." "reminding me of my love"" "What are you thinking about?" "Why're you upset?" "I'll tell you a way out." "Say you can't go on the world tour because the kids' studies will suffer" "Yes... that would be the correct thing to do" "But how long are we going to continue like this?" "Until you take a decision" "I'm telling you even now;" "leave everything and come to me" "No... we must wait for sometime" "I have no right to ruin other people's lives in a moment... so as to make my own future" "I'll go to the office right now and get Aditya to agree to stay back" "And please leave." "It's not right for us to stay here for very long someone might see us" "I can't believe we could meet so soon!" "Don't you recognise me...?" "But I don't mind!" "You must be meeting so many people!" "Hello!" "Pallavi Arora..." "the metro station?" "My husband kicked up such a fuss!" "Any girl would be excited to see you... she'd go mad, crazy..." "but what are you doing here?" "Well, simply..." " simply?" "I'm around "simply" too" "I'm so sorry, you're in a hurry and I'm stopping you" "see you again, okay?" " Okay" "You will be in Delhi for sometime, won't you?" "See you again then?" ""Life... is just happenstance"" "Hey!" "What are you doing here?" "Obviously, sipping coffee." "Right?" "I believe the coffee here is excellent" "But why're you all alone?" "Why're you getting so uncomfortable, Anjali?" "What happened?" "How much coffee do you drink, Anjali?" "From two cups, that is?" "Excuse me, Anjali." "I must leave." " Sure... go on." "By all means" "I won't reveal your secret to anyone" "What?" "That you drink coffee from two cups!" "What are you doing here in the office, Anjali?" "Come and sit down" "Looks like it's a day of surprises." "Dil came first and now you... and you're the one he was talking about... well, what'll you have?" "What's this formality between man and wife...?" ""What'll you have!" The speciality of this office is coffee" "Yummy!" "I'm sure Babs is going to love the coffee" "Take his advise, Anjali" "When he first says something to me, I never believe it" "But in time I discover, whatever he says always turns out to be true" "I've been telling Aditya for the last one hour... and he just won't understand!" "He says it's impossible... and I said, "Why's it impossible?" "Let's ask babs herself..."" "and before we start looking for you, you walk right in through the door!" "Now tell me, is there anyone else you're seeing apart from Aditya?" "I know!" "I know you're seeing no one!" "You must either be shopping or sipping coffee." "Lonely, all alone!" "And now that Dil is here all the way from Jamshedpur... and is still lonely and all alone, what good is that?" "How can you leave before you get to know me or understand me?" "Please don't go, babs..." " I don't understand" "The world tour, babs!" "Aditya told me you folks are leaving on a world tour" "The farce hasn't even begun and you're already quitting...?" "He's beating around the bush to tell us to postpone our world tour... so as to attend his party." " You must listen to Dil... and attend Dil's party..." "Please!" "Please!" "Please, babs!" "Babs!" "Say yes!" "Please!" "Since he's being so insistent, let's stay back till the party" "But I've put all my work on hold to make time for the vacation" "It's going to be difficult later." " That's for you to manage" "The children's studies are also going to suffer... we can always go later" "Right." "You're the boss." "We'll do as you say" "Now tell me how I'm looking?" " Oh lovely" "Oh my God!" "That's the Pop star!" "Raja...?" "Indian Raja?" " Yes" "When did you come to Delhi?" "And what brings you here?" "Come, let me introduce you to the others." "C'mon..." "Dil, why didn't you tell us he was coming to the party?" "Yes, why not?" " What's all the secrecy for?" "I didn't want you girls to get all hot!" "You've come to my party despite the short notice" "It was actually my wife's brainwave." "She said "Darling Dil..."" ""our party's going to be attended by millionaires and billionaires..."" ""we have all types of businessmen, but we don't have an artist..."" "that's you... and here you are!" "And I promise you, I'm not going to disappoint you" "I'll introduce to such people, show you such beautiful faces... your senses are bound to be numbed." "Am I right?" "Anjali, isn't he the musician we met at the metro station the other day?" "Meet Lala, that's his wife Lali, suresh Bajaj, wife Maninder..." "What's just nice, buddy?" "It's wonderful, man!" "Wonderful!" "I told Raja no one must know he's coming to the party!" "Isn't it amazing...?" " Indeed." "It is amazing" "It was at the metro station first, then the restaurant... and now at our party" "some people always seem to be crossing each other's paths" "Aditya, where's your wife?" " Where's Anjali?" "She's with my wife." "By the way, who are you girls with nowadays?" "What sort of a question is that?" "I mean, where are your husbands?" "Not in Bangkok, I hope...?" "Having a hot, hot massage!" "They must be visiting India sometimes?" " What sort of a sick joke is that?" "I told you, this is one party we mustn't go to!" "Why're you teasing them, Dil?" " Stop scolding me, feller... they're a bunch of shameless women" "They'll be here at the next party for sure" "I wasn't teasing them really." "I was breathing life into my party!" "There'll be some scandals, a few hearts will be broken... only then will it be fun!" "Why're you getting so tense, Anjali?" "There's a thin line dividing "P" and "M"" ""Piya" (beloved), Miyan (husband)." "Miyan and Piya..." "The husband and the lover." " What are you trying to say?" "That which you're trying to hide sipping coffee from two cups, you can sure fool your husband... but do you take me for an imbecile too?" "I could create a scene!" "Scared, are you...?" "All right, I won't talk about it" "I won't tell anyone" "But there is someone who knows everything" "Who?" "It isn't your husband..." "it's mine" ""says the pigeon..." " What?"" ""There's something fishy"" ""It flies, carrying word to everyone"" ""Love is an amazing test..."" ""some pass it, some fail"" ""Husband, lover..."" ""I'm so confused, darling"" ""society's all about confusions of relationships, darling"" ""Mind the end of your sari..." "it's about to slip"" ""And I'm crazy..." "it'll send my heart pounding"" ""The end of my sari, I must mind." "It could surely slip..."" ""the crazy hearts would surely skip a beat"" ""Take a look, my love, where's your mind wandering?"" ""Watch your step;" "there are pitfalls all the way"" ""Every face is masked..."" ""Every face is masked..."" ""they all have their clandestine affairs"" ""says the pigeon..."" ""there's something fishy"" ""It flies, spreading the word"" ""They look at something and aim for something else..."" ""why do these lovers take the world for madcaps?"" ""Time will tell, my bird..." " Really?"" ""Who's the madcap and who's going to regret it all"" ""One's gain, another's loss"" ""The killer gaze has felled many"" ""Oh these deadly nights..." "they set my passions on fire"" ""let's seal our lips." "It's a secret after all"" ""It's a cruel world." "They fear disgrace..."" ""how they suppress their feelings to put up with people!"" ""Says the pigeon..."" ""there's something fishy"" ""It flies, spreading the word"" ""Love is an amazing test..."" ""some pass it, some fail"" "You guys are the limit!" "Don't cry" "And be afraid of no one" "Neither have you committed a sin, nor have I" "Don't take Dil and Pallavi's ribbing so seriously" "If they've got to know what's brewing between us, it's okay" "But what if they tell Aditya...?" " What will happen?" "That will be good for us." " Not at all" "I'm not prepared yet to tell Aditya about it" "You were never prepared." "You always chose the least difficult path" "I'll have to take all the decisions now" "Look at me" "My show's being staged in two days" "And that's the night I plan to leave India" "But not alone." "I want to leave with you" "Make sure you're ready" "It means, God is the Eternal Truth." "Be honest in whatever you do" "That is the path to inner peace" "Now repeat after me..." "Anjali, how are you, my child?" " When did you come...?" "You didn't even inform us you'd be coming" "Mom and Papa decided to give us a pleasant surprise" "They're visiting the Golden Temple in Amritsar... and will be staying over in Delhi for a day" "The Golden Temple?" "Your Papa had sworn a thanksgiving... that when everything had settled down in the family... he'd pay a visit to the Golden Temple to pay obeisances to Guru Nanak" "And thanks to Nanak, not only is everything okay... it's just wonderful!" "Madam, the children still haven't had their milk" "May I give it to them?" "Pooja, Gauri..." "go and drink your milk" "No, Mama." "We want to be with grandma and grandpa children, listen to Mama and go and finish your milk" "I'll give you both a chocolate later" "Praise the Lord!" "God has indeed been very kind to us" "The crisis we were laden with has at last been resolved" "Anjali, you've looked after this house so well" "What we asked you for was no petty thing, my child" "But you did us all such a huge favour, without any regret whatsoever" "Aditya was telling us how well you have... taken care of him, the children and the whole house" "You have indeed done commendably well with the values we imparted to you" "Parents rarely see how far their children can go... but some children defy all boundaries and go far beyond them... and set an example, far outdoing the expectations of their parents... bringing them so much of glory." "As you have set an example now" "I will pray to God that this family of yours, your house... may forever be happy" "May no evil eye ever effect you, may you never face any hardship" "That's your air-ticket and your companion's too." "Both confirmed" "At what time will the show begin?" " 15 minutes to go for your entry" "I've only got to wear my costume" "Let me get ready then." " Okay." "You've got your tickets" "After your show is over tonight you will go away" "And I wonder where I'll look for you." " That's hardly how it is" "Actually there's no point in staying on once my work is over" "And my work will be over tonight." " Except for one" "Which one...?" " Shake hands" "What...?" " Shake hands, I say..." "I wonder why I always get positive vibes whenever I shake hands with you" "Now please congratulate me." " What for?" "It isn't just another beautiful night of your performance... it's also the wedding anniversary for Anjali and me" "It's three years since we got married" "There's an age gap between Anjali and me" "Actually, it wasn't even a properly arranged marriage" "You must've heard how Anjali got married to me, as a commitment... and made a supreme sacrifice for my family" "As days are going by, I'm beginning to... feel more and more love for her" "Yes, I've heard." "She made a very big sacrifice sorry, I just got talking about my wife..." "I had actually come backstage to wish you all the best" "Let me see you to the door..." " No, no, please!" "Your fans are going to mob you out there" "I'll find my way" "You, Anjali...?" "Aditya was here moments ago." "He didn't see you, did he?" "He was saying a lot of strange things to me" "He didn't seem to be saying what he had on his mind" "He hasn't got to know, has he?" "Even if he's got to know, we care a damn!" "Big deal!" "Look, even if it comes out in the open... tell him straightaway that you're going to spend your life with Raja" "I've even got two tickets to Montreal... we'll go back to our world." "We'll forget about everything" "Including our values?" "What do you mean?" "I'm talking about the values I have imbibed from my parents" "When I reached home the other day, I met Mama and Papa there" "They were going to the Golden Temple... to pray for a happy married life for me" "seeing me at home was a dream come true for them" "I was Anjali, and yet they looked at me as if I were Aarti" "But I'm not Aarti..." "I'm Anjali" "And I couldn't look them in the eye" "Those who cannot look their parents in the eye... are surely doing something wrong" "so I won't be able to do it, Raja." "I'm not going" "Wonderful!" "Whenever my life is about to settle down... you are reminded of your duties towards the world" "Raja is heart-broken." "His house is blown asunder... he stands isolated" "Because you always kept him out of your life" "Aarti only had to die... for you to go about making people's lives" "couldn't you spot me anywhere?" "Once earlier, you had walked out of my life" "And now, you're walking out again" "Do not ruin me anymore" "Whatever you say, I'm not changing the path I have chosen" "And Raja has decided his path too" "I'm taking you away" "Either you come of your own volition, or I'll have to create a scene" "Don't force me, please" "It would be better if we end this here and now" "Even creating a scene will end it once and for all" "I'm leaving" "In that case, I too will ruin your happy family before I leave" "I leave that to you, Raja" "Whether you call me loyal for the decision I've taken... or even unfaithful" ""Do not view the thorns with such contempt..."" ""they're useful too"" ""Have not love for roses alone"" ""The one I've lost my heart to..."" ""is an unfaithful woman, she is faithless"" ""My love for you is indeed a curse..."" ""for you are unfaithful, you are faithless"" ""A glass wrecked..."" ""causes a shrill noise"" ""The cries of a broken heart..."" ""no one listens to"" ""I'm crazy, mad, obsessed..."" ""in her memories, I live." "In my love for her, I die"" ""The state of my heart, she will never realise..."" ""a million times I reason with her, but she's still not going to listen"" ""How wicked are her charms..."" ""she's treacherous, a betrayer"" ""The one I've lost my heart to..."" ""is an unfaithful woman, she is faithless"" ""May she never sleep..."" ""may she awake all nights"" ""for someone's love..."" ""may she pine forever"" ""she has tormented me, I will torment her too"" ""In this gathering today, I'm going to disgrace her"" ""There's a fire on my breath, a restlessness in my heart..."" ""she sits with her head bowed, in another man's arms"" ""The one whose charms I'm drunk on..."" ""is a betrayer, a faithless one"" ""The one I've lost my heart to..."" ""is an unfaithful woman, she is faithless"" ""Oh, what a curse love has been..."" ""you are disloyal, you are unfaithful"" "What...?" "Raja... what the hell are you doing?" "!" "Stop it, I say!" "You don't know what they were upto!" "They were..." "I know everything" "I've known everything right from the beginning" "I'm the one who told them" "If you have any questions, you can ask me" "You couldn't forget your first love, even after our marriage" "You were justified too." "You just weren't mature enough" "But I should've been wiser, and yet I made a mistake" "And by the time I could realise it, things had totally changed" "It was too late by the time I saw the writing on the wall" "You had already walked out of my life" "I then started thinking how I could bring you back" "Had I even reasoned with you then... maybe you wouldn't have been able to understand" "I wondered how I could bring you back to my house, to my family... and it was there that my friends came to my help" "They're not enemies;" "they, in fact, have shared my secret sister-in-law, I won't call you "babs" today for whatever mistakes we might have made... please forgive us" "We had no other way of saving your family" "Anjali, there is no need for you to feel ashamed" "You have done no wrong." "Nor have I ever considered you guilty" "If I have done whatever I did it was only to make you aware... as to the path you wanted to choose for yourself" "Even when you married me... you might perhaps have taken a wrong step, in a fit of emotions" "But today, you can think only about yourself" "You can think with a calm mind and decide for yourself" "You need not worry about me." "As for the children... they'll start understanding too" "I will stand by you in any decision you take" "What are you thinking about?" "What is there to think about anymore?" "We were either wrong to have met secretly, or we were right" "Must we think about all that at this stage?" "Now that everybody has got to know the truth..." "I have no hesitation in saying that I love you very dearly" "And I've loved you since the days they weren't even part of your life" "It's just our misfortune that your sister is no longer with us" "she wanted us both to get married too... but our destiny let us down" "And now that destiny has given us another chance... must you still keep thinking?" "Do you want to know what I'm thinking about" "I think, a wife can be unfaithful... a girl, a lover, can also be unfaithful" "But a mother can never be unfaithful" "A mother can never be unfaithful with her children so how can I abandon these children whose mother has already left them?" "How may I snatch their mother from them all over again...?" "And the truth is that they were never Aarti's children... they were always Anjali's children." "My children" "Mama..." "Where had you gone away, Mama?" " Where, Mama?" "Nowhere, my children..." "I'd never leave my children and go anywhere" "I will never leave you and go away." "Never ever... okay?" "Papa, why's Mama crying?" " Why's she in tears?" "It's because she loves you very much" "Raja... are you going away?" "Yes." "Going away from here would be the path for me" "The path Anjali had chosen earlier, was the right one" "And the path she has chosen today, is the right one too" "Raja... we gave you a lot of trouble, didn't we?" "Please forgive us, my friend." "We aren't so bad after all" "You are the best friends one can hope to have" "With friends like you, destiny would never let anyone down" ""Difficult is the path of love..."" ""it's only after you're trudged far and wide that you find your goal"" ""Heed your heart, keep loving..."" ""lead your life as your heart asks you to"" ""I know, Love is God..."" ""it's different from everything else"" ""The one I've lost my heart to..."" ""is different from everyone else"" "Where are the children?" "They've already checked in with Pallavi They were quite a handful" "And that gives us husband and wife some moments of privacy" "We have also decided that when we return this time, we'll be a threesome" "I've told Pallavi to learn how to handle kids, bring them up" "Enough of fun and teasing, I say." "Let's start a family now!" "Right?" "Raja, why're you staring at me like that?" "Forgive me, I say!" "In any case, I'm like a fly in your presence... a swat and it'll be good-bye!" "Adieu!" "We must leave now, Raja" "It's famous at the Delhi airport anyway... that Aditya sahni always turns up at the last call" "I want to check-in on time today and give everyone a shock shall we, Dil...?" " Sure" "Everyone falls in love." "So did I" "You folks must've fallen in love, too" "It's said that man can never forget his first love" "We must quietly accept whatever God decides for us" "Because God knows best... and He's not our enemy, He's our friend" "He will surely find you someone who will love you beyond all limits she will come, she surely will." "For you, for me..."
