Akele Hum Akele Tum Page #2

But, this is your first recording.

And I wanted to be there with you.

I'm not recording for a film. Its

just a jingle for an advertisement.

When am I going to meet the right

people? When will I start working?

It's just a matter of a few more

months. What makes you so upright?

Hello, Farida. Come in.

- What are you doing?

Nothing much. Just cooking.

Like a cup of tea? - Why not?

- Is the tea brewed? - Yes.

I haven't seen you

around in 4 or 5 days.

Have you been keeping well?

- Absolutely.

What's the matter? You seem tense.

- Not at all. I'm perfectly fine.

How are your music

rehearsals going on?

I hardly find time outside household

chores. How am I to rehearse?

What of the career in music? Can you

immerse yourself so in the chores?

You must carve out some

time everyday for rehearsing.

Look at me... I must fetch Sonu

from school after I finish cooking.

I'll go and fetch Sonu... Yes.

I will. It doesn't really matter.

Thanks.

Hi, Kiran.

Will you please draw a bath for me?

Make it fast.

I've to attend a party.

- What party? - Oh, there's

something I'd like you to know.

- I've dumped the job.

- Why?

I had enough of Mehra's abuses.

Besides, I want to move upwards.

What's more, I met Gulbadan Kumar today.

- Gulbadan Kumar?

Yes. He owns Prince Records. Its

really tough to get to meet him.

I walked into his office and sang

a few songs. He liked my voice.

He invited me to the party this

evening. Looks like I've made it.

Just press these clothes for me, will you?

- I'm coming with you!

What'll you do there? You'd get bored.

- No. I won't get bored.

What about Sonu?

- Farida can put him to sleep.

All right. You can come along.

Get dressed in some good clothes.

Now. Take the clothes.

Press them quickly.

Congratulations, Mr. Gulbadan Kumar.

Ever since your company was formed

music sales have grown manifold.

It's the grace of The Divine Mother.

A double gold disc for the music

directors. Someday I'll get mine too.

I've recorded my voice

on a cassette... Rohit!

I've recorded one of

my songs in a cassette.

- Will you please give it

to Gulbadan Kumar? - All right.

Hows the good lady? I greet you

in the name of The Divine Mother.

Hello. - I'm Rohit Kumar. -

Of course, Mr. Rohit Kumar.

- Greetings! - Grand

party. - It's modest really.

- Have you listened to my cassette?

- Yes I did. - Did you like it?

- Very nice.

- Thank you, Sir. Thank you, Sir.

Glory be to The Divine Mother!

Congratulations, Mr. Gulbadan!

You're raking in gold discs.

Let's pose for a photograph.

You're the biggest of them all.

- Not at all. - Isn't it, now?

It's the two of you, Messrs Amar &

Kaushik who are the most well known.

That's the magic of our music.

We've defined 6 super hit films.

Our critics are now silenced.

- Indeed. Indeed, Mr. Gulbadan.

You must listen to the music

we've scored for our next film.

We recorded a song yesterday. Beautiful!

Which film is the song meant for?

Well... he's an upcoming

artiste. He's also a singer.

- Mr. Rahul Kumar.

- I'm Rohit Kumar, Sir.

Oh yes... Mr. Rohit Kumar.

- Do you sing?

- Yes, Sir.

I see. For whom have

you sung till now?

Nothing special yet. - Yes. Go

on. - I want to sing for you.

Of course.

- Thank you.

- Don't forget to give my cassette.

- Oh yes. But, stop it now, will you?

Yes... what is it?

- I'm not only a singer.

I've written a few songs too.

And what are you?

- A composer.

In a country like ours, just

about anyone can turn a composer.

Call me up on Monday. If your

voice is worth it, you're made.

I'll come over on Monday

after giving you a call.

What more could you want? Glory be

to The Divine Mother. - Mr. Gulbadan

Yes, Sir.

Why aren't you giving

him my cassette?

I can't give the cassette now.

- Why?

It was so difficult getting an

audition for myself. - So what?

How can I ask them to

audition my wife too?

They'll think I'm trying to force

my family down their throats.

Please cheers for amar kaushik.

So, d'you feel that I'm

imposing myself upon you?

I never said that.

That's what you meant! - I'm tired

and I don't want to get into a fight.

D'you mean to say that I

want to get into a fight?

Sonu is sleeping.

I'd only asked you to

hand over my cassette.

Was it so difficult?

I haven't heard what you've recorded.

I don't even know what's in it.

I don't know if it's worth a hearing.

And, it was tough getting an audition.

Must I lose a chance by

trying to push your cassette?

An hour ago, you loved my voice.

Now, it isn't worth auditioning!

I don't mean that.

One must practice regularly to be

able to sing properly. - Practice.

Just another excuse! And I think

I understand you perfectly, Rohit.

You've been pursuing your career.

And all I get are flimsy excuses.

Please don't scream.

Why don't you say it plainly?

That I don't have the aesthetics.

That I should stop dreaming about

becoming a professional singer.

That's not what's

going to be, Rohit.

I won't give up! And you for one,

cannot break my resolve! Get that?

I don't know why Rohit is doing

this. He mustn't do this to you.

It's wrong on his part. - We've

finished our homework, Mother.

May we go to play?

- Make sure you return soon.

- All right.

You have the right to a career.

Why don't you discuss it with Rohit?

What are you doing here? I've

been looking for you so long.

I had to discuss some things

with Farida. - What?

Besides Sonu is getting on my

nerves. Who is to take care of him?

I have to go to a rehearsal. Where

are my clothes? How about some food?

I'm coming over.

- And, where's the file of my songs?

I've been looking for it all

day. I just can't find it.

I'd brought it down with

me for my practice session.

Why don't you just sit over here

for the rest of the day practicing!

I said I'm coming.

- Don't bother.

You can practice singing

for the rest of the day.

I'll feed myself at a restaurant.

I'll look after the household too.

- Have I ever refused to do all that?

What've you done? - Sorry, Mother.

- You've got my washing all dirty.

I've been at the laundry for 2 hours.

And I've asked you not to play here.

How many times have I

asked you not to play?!

What's up, Kiran? Why did you

beat him? What has he done?

He won't listen to me. And now,

he's got the laundry all dirty.

I'm sick and tired of chorus all

day. I've gone out of my mind.

Kiran...

Kiran.

We tread upon the same path, Kiran.

What could be better for both of us?

I am sorry sonu... sorry.

Ilove you.

Kiran...

Kiran.

Open up, quickly.

Come on, hurry up.

Make sure to remember the day today.

We'll celebrate this day every year.

This is the day

I've awaited forever.

The day on which

my career commences!

Today was the day! Amar-Kaushik were

left speechless after I auditioned.

I'm singing the first song

for Pawan Chopra's new film.

I'm leaving, Rohit.

And they said that if this song

passes the muster while recording...
