Always, Always : Kabhi Kabhie Page #7

What are you thinking about?

Vijay, have I been a good wife?

If you want it, I'll give you

a certificate.

You are the ideal woman

and the ideal wife.

First, you will have to flatter me.

I'm no poet! I can't write odes

in your praise.

I'm just a lowly mason in the trade

of putting together brick and mortar.

At least you might try.

- Trying I am, sweetheart.

Here stands the wall between us.

I won't listen till you've done

your bit to flatter me.

Till then we're walls apart.

Is that a challenge?

Whatever you think.

I'm man enough. And in my times,

I've breached many a wall.

When in love, fear not!

Lady, you're great.

I worship you!

Now you're on track.

You're nice. Very nice.

You're beautiful. Very beautiful!

Your eyes...

My eyes...?

Your eyes resemble...

- Resemble what?

The lantern burning

in a poor man's hut.

Vicky hasn't been writing.

God knows, how he is.

He's my son. He must

be enjoying himself.

"The colours of the blossoms

The sheen of your skin"

"Those eyes like a fairy's

The effect is stunning"

"You're always needling me

I'll get engaged to someone else"

"How can someone else

As long as I am around"

"Never! Let the daggers be drawn"

"Unless you say yes,

I'll use force"

"In the end these lovers of mine

Will always kill themselves"

"Stop playing hard to get"

"I'll grab you by the hair

And I'll drag you home"

"Let the daggers be drawn"

"You have a way with words"

"And I'm ready for the consequences"

"Stop flirting with the other girls"

"I won't leave you

Even if God tries to stop me"

"If you are so eager

I'll make you happy"

"I'm coming with you

Let the daggers be drawn"

"When you like someone,

you might fall in love"

"No use reasoning with your heart

Fight the heart and you'll never win"

"Right, my love"

"When hearts come together

you will fall in love"

"The coming together of hearts

is a matter of destiny"

"This is the place to fall in love"

"For lovers, the world

is a young place to be"

"Believe it or not

Cupid can strike anyone"

"Every heart craves for love"

"Love is life"

"Get close to someone"

"Give him your heart

Give him your soul"

"Give someone a place in your heart"

How?

"Be my guest"

"Find a place in someone's heart"

"Youth comes only once"

"The season of love comes only once"

"Don't miss this season"

Why?

"The seasons of love

Mustn't be missed"

"It doesn't blossom everyday"

What?

"Even if it means getting a bad name

Do it"

"That's the way with lovers"

"Let others heap insults on you

Every insult is your reward"

"Tell someone you love her"

"Hear, someone says

She's in love with you"

Your coming has brightened up

our lives!

Without you this house

looked so empty.

I have no one, Papa!

No one!

I'm suffering for

what I have done.

I'm coming back, Mummy!

I have no one!

I just wanted to meet you.

I've met you.

Are you sorry you came here?

No. I was in dark. After I came here,

I've come to know everything.

And back in Delhi,

my parents are all alone.

They have no one else but me.

I've some duty towards them.

You're right.

I wanted to ask you something.

Yes?

What do you think of Vicky?

What?

Do you like him?

I...?

Yes. I wanted to know your opinion

before taking a decision.

He's nice... what can I say...?

He lives in Delhi. I can come and

go often. And we'll can meet too.

Maybe I'll get to know

the Doctor and Shobha better.

I think Sweety and Vicky

make a good pair.

I have to discuss this

with my husband.

You lost.

How is Vicky?

He's a fine boy.

But... I don't get you.

I think Sweety has taken

a liking for him.

He likes her too.

Why not pair them off?

Have you asked Sweety?

If you don't believe me,

you can ask her.

I'll ask her right away.

What are you drawing?

That's my sketch!

Papa! Give it back to me!

That's my guest house.

But who's this boy?

Look, I won't talk to you!

I'll tell you, who he is.

He's Vicky.

I like him too.

Are you in love with Sweety?

What do you think?

I think you're pretending.

You're cheating her.

Do you know what they

are thinking about you?

They're talking in terms of

getting you and Sweety married.

You'll surely come for the wedding?

It's a matter of her life.

Who is responsible for all this?

Go on, Pinky. Say it.

It's all your fault.

You think, I traveled 1100 miles

to work in a stone quarry?

Did I come here for Sweety?

Did I leave home for this?

And your coming here... now whom

has it made any happier?

Are you any happier?

Am I happier?

Are your parents happier?

Or is your newfound mother

any happier for it?

Go on. Bask in your newfound mother's

love as long as you can!

But only till Mr Amit doesn't know

about all this.

Then all this sweet talk will turn

sour and love will turn to hatred.

And you're the root cause

of all this, Pinky.

Take it out on me

if you think it's my fault.

Why are you destroying

an innocent girl's life?

You can't destroy someone's home.

They gave you shelter,

they have trusted you.

Is this the way you repay them?

Your lies will kill that girl!

What you call a lie

could be true.

If you have guts, go and tell them

that you want to marry Sweety.

I have only one weakness in my life.

And you know that.

Please don't take advantage

of my weakness.

Don't ridicule me, Pinky.

You are my weakness.

I didn't come here

to destroy this family.

I didn't come here

to ruin their lives.

I wanted to go back with you

as soon as you would.

Anyway I'll make you a promise.

After today, I won't give you

a chance to complain.

Do you know Vicky?

- Yes.

How long have you known him?

- I know him from Delhi.

Why has he come here?

- For my sake.

Why?

- We are engaged.

He was against my coming here.

I fought with him and came here.

I fought with everyone...

with Mummy... with Papa.

For your sake! For my sake!

And after I came here...

You have been through so much.

Whose fault was it?

And who suffers...?

I will not make you suffer anymore.

I promise.

I have to make good those 20 years.

Yesterday it was Sweety.

Today it's Pinky!

Till yesterday you were

planning Sweety's wedding.

And today Pinky means

everything for you.

Sweety is as much my daughter

as she is yours.

Don't misunderstand me.

Try to understand me if you can.

I feel like laughing at you!

You are a man after all.

You can't change.

And you, the woman.

You can't overcome your weaknesses

your duplicity, your subterfuge.

I was making a mistake.

And I was so unaware.

I'm sure you're quite aware that

what you're doing...

will hurt an innocent child.

You know she loves Vicky.

And you also know that Sweety

isn't only my weakness.

After my poetry, she is

everything in life for me.

She is my poetry.

If anyone tries to hurt her,

I'll make her life miserable...

be it even my wife.

I feel so proud of you.

But you enrage me!

I wish I could kill myself!

A mother has to bear much.

But how much? For how long?

There must be an end to it.
