"You are so insincere!" "Sorry Nandini..." "I said I am sorry" "No you're not." "You're only saying sorry because you feel you should say that isn't that the reason why people say sorry, please, thank you" "No Navin, people say sorry because they are feeling sorry" "Well, now I am really sorry" "What is that supposed to mean?" "Come on Nandini, I am not dressed that badly am I?" "You're okay Navin I mean look at me and look at you I am wearing a dress, my hair is done. I am wearing nice shoes..." "Look at your shoes..."

"Why did you force him to dance?" "Ijust want everyone to have a good time" "Good time!" "Does it look like he is having a good time?" "You're such a loser" "Shit!" "All well?" "Don't I look like the happiest human being alive?" "Cigarette please... all well?" "Doesn't he look like the happiest human being alive?" "Tanuja bashed you up?" "Ijust don't understand girls?" "I tease Sudeep, he doesn't mind, but Tanuja gets mad" "Even I get mad." "Okay?" "Football!" "I'll give you one hard kick!" "Tanuja is upset with you... because you're not taking the relationship to the next level lt's not a videogame!" "Next level!"

"As long as I am taking it off" "That's right -but black - black with lace" "Navin!" "Everybody is looking" "So what?" "She is going to be my wife." "You're so shameless I'll find out what she bought..." "But how will I know what you bought?" "Okay - l'll ask Yash" "Fatso, why don't you buy some underwear?" "I don't wear any" "Freedom of movement, eh?" "Listen everybody!" " He's got nothing underneath- he is a commando" "Yash... careful" " Tanuja" "Sorry - l didn't say anything..."

"Takes three hours from Bombay." "Buddy once I shift here, it's bye bye-bye Bombay" "Navin..." "Where will you stay after marriage?" "At home, with dad... he'll be alone" "Maybe we'll move out after a while..." "Nandini may not get along with him" "Shut up!"

"It's not right, Yash..." "Then what is right?" "That I marry Tanuja and keep loving Nandini..." "is that right?" "Orthat Nandini should live unhappily ever after?" "is that right?" "Sock him Sudeep!" "I guess you are right" "What kind of a friend are you?" "Come, lets go-they'll sort it out" "Here... here they come" "Don't say a word" "Where were you all for so long?"

I know his body is not there..." "Who is that other fellow?" "..." "Sudeep" "Evict him from his body and allot it to Navin, okay?" "What do you mean?" "Allot his body to me!" "See, your friend Sudeep..." "he was the one supposed to die" "So we will bring him here, and you can go there... into his body" "No way man. I am not Sudeep!" "Of course you are not Sudeep You will only be dwelling in his body" "Yes, but who will they see, when they look at me?" "Sudeep!" "But you'll know that you are Navin not Sudeep" "Big help!" "Listen, I don't want somebody else's body I want my own god damn body, okay?" "But your body is not there" "So make a new one lf one loses a passport, you get a duplicate" "But your body is not lost, its expired... burnt!" "And sir, there is no precedent for such a case" "Yes, duplication is a crime over here" "Then do something else" "Do what?" "We are not God" "Then call him." "Where the hell is he?" "Sorry!" "No idea." "Everybody says there is God" "But where is he?" "Nobody knows that" "Sir please try and understand I'm here and my best friend is seducing my Nandini" "How do you know that?" "..." "How does he know that?" "How can he know that?" "There must be some link - otherwise how would he know?" "He must have some link" " Sir it's not important" "He was always in love with her... I always knew that - l'm just trying to help you" "You can go back, but only in Sudeep's body, that's all ls there no other option, sir?" "Of course there is an option." "You can stay here... forever" "I need to go back - l know, you need to go back..." "You can go back, but only as Sudeep" "You think over it my boy... and decide" "Navin, listen to me... don't say no" "Nobody ever gets a chance to go back from here but you are getting it - shut up man!" "Have you seen Sudeep?" "Yes..." "He is fat, so?" "That is not such a bad thing He is fat, but cute..." "How much time has passed since I last saw her?" "Two weeks" "Vijay, I have to see Nandini." "Please... take me down" "Are you crazy?" "I can't take you every time..." "just because you feel like it" "Bastard!" "It is all your fault" "So?" "But I can't take you there again." "You almost spilt the beans I haven't yet, but I will... if you don't take me to her." "Right now!" "Mind... mind your hands.

"After all, he was my son." "May I..." "Can I...?" "I'm going to set everything right I'll stop eating and start exercising I hearthis from you every few months" "Relax, nothing is going to change" "Sorry I didn't mean to discourage you but just be happy the way you are" "But how can I?" "This body is so bloody fat ls this any age to have sugar?" "You have sugar?" "No..." "Yes..." "I mean... lf l continue this way, the doctor says I will have sugar" "That's not good at all I know but I don't have sugar, or anything else I'm fit and fine" "So are you dropping the gym idea?" "No way, sweetheart." "Things are going to change -for good" "Mmm..." "Are you sure?" "Hundred percent" "You were never fond of pasta... ln fact you were nevertoo fond of Italian lt was Navin's favourite" "Come to think of it, we never had Italian." "We always had Thai" "Because that was your favourite" "Navin loved coffee and pasta, and old Hollywood films" "More than anything else, he loved you" "Cheer up, life is not overyet" "Unfortunately not" "Don't say that" " Navin wouldn't have liked it" "Can we talk of something else?" "You were very upset last night... lf you don't want to talk..." "No, everything's fine" "No it isn't..." "Yash was behaving so strangely" "What did he say to you?" "Nothing..." "He was just being mad I know what he must have told you" "And for having said that, he is mad" "he was making sense" "Sense?" "How can you just get up one day and start saying..." "Sudeep, there's nothing to be shocked about. lt's okay" "Okay?" "It's okay?" "That means you too..." "No silly, he's my friend, just like you are" "And I'm so fond of you, can't be in love with you you are my buddy but I" "Not in a thousand years you know what I mean?" "Hello" "What do you think you're doing?" "You are not Naveen." "You are Sudeep" "You're fine the way you are-Shut up" "What is your problem?" "I'm sorry" "Mom, I'm thinking of writing a story. lt's a little strange." "There's a boy- he's madly in love with a girl" "He dies... but he was not supposed to..." "Who's the murderer?" " lt's a love story." "You won't understand" "Fine, so don't tell me" "The boy dies" "When he reaches heaven..." "He finds out that there's been a mistake" "Someone else was supposed to die" "What are you saying?" "its pretty simple" "They send this boy back to earth, but in the body of the man who was supposed to die" "So it's the same boy; but now..." "he's the other man" "So how will the girl know that, this man is actually THAT boy?" "I can't understand a thing" "The boy is not the boy anymore." "And the man is not the man" "That's what I'm asking Sudeep, who is who?" "Look, the boy came back after death" "How is that possible?" "Mom, what about reincarnation?" "How is that possible?" "That is just the priests trying to fool you." "There is just one life" "Just imagine for a minute -this is a" "This is A's body and this is A's soul" "And this is B's body and this is B's..." "You ate him?" "!" "You killed him!" "How could you do that?" "Oh my god, I'm so sorry Sudeep!" "Nandini, we should go on a long drive some time" "That's a very good idea." "We'll all go -you, me, Tanuja. lt'll be fun" "Yes." "That's not a bad idea." "It's been so long since we went to Goa" "We just went there, last holidays" "You hadn't come with us... I didn't come with you?" "No, you had gone with your motherto Nagpur..." "Ah, right. I really missed it." "But you had fun..." "That's because you were not there" "Do you remember, you almost drowned" "You told me!" "I nevertold you" "Navin must've told me then." "The two of them went to the beach." "It was high tide." "Suddenly one big wave hit Nandini and she disappeared underthe water" "And it felt like the longest moment of my life I thought - l don't know what I'd live for... again" "Then she surfaced and I felt that I could breathe again" "Navin told me" "Really?" "he nevertold me" "Well, he told me" "Then he must have also told you..." "How he got drunk and made a pass at those girls" "Liar, it was you!" "You asked him to chat up the Brazilian girl -for you" "That was the one thing I hated about Navin" "He couldn't hold his drinks" "But he promised he'd give it up- after marriage... and he would have" "You can't give up smoking and drinking" "He would have done anything." "for you Nandini" "What is the point?" "It doesn't matter anymore" "Yes -what's gone is gone" "What is gone is not gone!" "It must go somewhere I'm sure wherever Navin is, he can hear, see and feel..." "Jjust like us" "And I'm sure he's watching you Nandini and he's saying, "don't be sad"" "I love you baby... and I'm with you" "Sudeep please stop this" "Can't you shut up?" "Why did he have to go away, Yash?" "Why?" "Why must you talk of Navin all the time?" "Navin is my friend" "Not is" "Was!" "And he was my friend too." "But" "Was!" "Nandini is Navin's girl" "She WAS Navin's girl!" "He's dead now What do you want herto do kill herself?" "Or keep chanting away Navin's name - like you?" "Think of Tanuja at least." "Why are you cheating on her?" "I will tell her" "When?" "When the time is right." "When the time is right." "You leave that to me" "Navin would never do this to you" "Can you please stop the bike Sudeep?" "Stop it!" "How do you know that?" "Did Navin tell you?" "Yash!" "I'd never do this to you!" "Vijay..." "Vijay can you hear me?" "You'd said, its fine to be fat... but it's not" "You said, I had to fulfill Sudeep's dreams." "But what about my dreams?" "for you there is no time" " But time is running out for me..." "Go to sleep - do you know What time it is?" "Yes, mom" "You gave me a new life- but Nandini doesn't want anyone but Navin" "And I am Sudeep to her, not Navin" "Vijay, come here and help me" "Please - help me..." "Hi Tanuja, I thought you were in Delhi" "Am I supposed to be in Delhi?" "Oryou?" "No, that got cancelled last minute, actually..." "Do you think I'm dumb, Yash?" "No baby, seriously." "It was cancelled." "Some mix-up about AM PM..." "What are you talking about?" "What's going on?" " Nothing's going on baby" "Don't touch me, you bastard" "And you?" "You think you can do whatever you want -with whomeveryou want?" "I thought you were a friend Nandini" "Thank you Sudeep" "Yash, what's going on?" "Sudeep!" "What did you tell her?"

"Yes, I'm fine" "Just give me five minutes please, Amar... alone I'll be outside" "Hi Amar..." "listen, is Tanuja free?" "Yes, she's free." "Go in..." "Here's something to cheeryou up" "Didn't I tell you that I should not be disturbed for 5 minutes?" "Can't you stop people from barging into my room?" "Can't I depend on anyone?" "But I was just getting the... sorry" "All men are dogs" "All men?" "You got a doubt?" "No you're right." "All men are dogs" "Pathetic" "But some of us are well-trained dogs" "Really?" "I like your sense of humour." "And you know what?" " Shhhh!" "." "Just leave Amar." "Go home" "So, what's up?" "Cooking?" "Well, I do sometimes" "Are you okay?" "I thought I would get over Tanu." "But now I know how you feel without Navin... sort of... I went to see her" "Yes..." "I tried calling her... I'm sorry Yash" "Shit." "You know, I really screwed up" "Give her some time" "No I mean, this... I burnt the chicken" "I can fix it if you like" "No, I've to fix it myself" "So are you staying for dinner?" "Only if you fix it I will fix it" "Tanuja pick up the phone" "She's not answering the phone." "She's locked herself inside" "Yash and Nandini are in the next flat" "Tanuja what are you doing?" "Tanu baby please don't do this" "Tanuja, listen." "Answer me" "She's been on the ledge forthe last half an hour" "She's locked the door" "Listen, look at me sweety" "Just open the door I'm really sorry" "Tanu, Sudeep's here too" "Tanuja."
