And people with whom you socialize

like master pasha...

...they are useless.

Even they couldn't achieve anything.

They are just losers.

Losers? Losers mean what?

Anwar, look. You should not feel bad.

But i only wish you well. And...

...anwar, we should move from here.

These constables are mad.

Let them come. We won't go.

- What!

I want to talk to you.

- Don't act childishly.

Hey! Hey! Lovers! Get up! Get up!

I will talk to them.

What are you both doing here alone?

And why have you held her hands?

Forgive us. We will leave right now.

Where are you going?

Where are you going?

And what is in your pocket?

What is in your pocket?

Condom.

Look, mind your language.

I see! So you will teach me manners!

You will teach me manners!

Come on! Hold your ears! Hold

your ears and do sit ups.

And you... Aren't you a muslim lady?

Why didn't you wear 'burkha'?

You are roaming around like a heroine.

You won't find customers.

Anwar!

You dare to raise your hands

on a police officer!

Anwar!

You dare to raise your hands

on a police officer!

No, anwar!

Call somebody from the

police station! Go!

He is mad! He is mad!

Anwar, please leave him!

Anwar! Anwar, give me your hand!

Give me your hand!

No!

Anwar!

Let's go.

I hate this country.

Love.

Master pasha, you are here.

Since when i was searching for you.

Come, anwar.

What has happened to you?

Lts nothing. The lane which

i visited as a leper...

...i went there as a blind man.

So people bashed me up.

I wanted to talk to you urgently.

I have fallen in love.

Love.

Yes. We will talk about

the rest at home.

You quickly turn around the cycle.

We can't say anything

about the public.

They thrashed me black and blue.

Let's go quickly.

When i thought.

My eyes brimmed with tears.

When i thought.

Dipti... it took you

1 year to find me.

You say that... i am the only

one in the entire india...

...who can build such a temple set.

Anwar... She searched for

me for an entire year.

You have told me this 99 times

in the past one-hour.

Say it once more and you will

complete the century.

You don't understand.

Are you sure that she too...

...there is so much love

in her eyes, anwar.

The way she looks at me... Smiles...

...i am sure... That she loves me.

You don't tell her about this injury.

Clean this place. She

is about to come.

Where have you removed your slippers?

You don't understand at all.

Clean this. Remove this from here.

Remove this slipper from here.

What are you doing?

You don't understand.

Remove the liquor bottles from here.

You see, girls prefer things

kept neatly and tidily.

Otherwise what happens is that...

...yes. How are you? Greetings.

Dipti.

You... Please sit. Come.

He is anwar, my friend.

- Okay.

Hi.

He is doing his hindi honours.

And he is researching

on temples. Dipti-ji.

Anwar.

- Yes.

And he is doing research on temples.

- Yes.

Very interesting.

What happened to you?

- He fell down.

He fell on the street.

You know the plight of lucknow

streets, don't you?

What are you doing?

Are you badly hurt?

- No. Its nothing.

I have got a copy of the play

i told you about. - Okay.

There are 3 characters.

3 characters.

But only one actor will play

all the 3 characters.

This is what i have thought

about the play. - Okay.

But the main part about

the play is its set.

And i am sure that only

you can make the set.

I have got some papers...

and some pencil too.

'Dipti... There is so much

love in your eyes.'

'I feel that you should

go on saying something...

...and i should go on

listening to you.'

By the way there are other

things about the play too.

'I should go on looking at you.'

But maybe it's enough for today.

I will leave now, sir.

No, no.

You... You... At least have tea.

- I will make tea.

Go and get the tea from

the confectioner shop.

I will get it but...

...no, sir. Not today... - Bring snacks

from the confectioner shop.

No, sir. I will have it the

next time i come. - Listen...

...everybody is waiting for

me for the rehearsals.

I will get it but...

...i can't wait today.

Take care. I will leave now. Goodbye.

She didn't even have tea.

Anwar... How do we look together?

Good. But i think you both should

spend some time together.

To know each other better.

Maybe she just likes your work.

But i love her.

And that is sufficient for me.

To love somebody... is

a great thing, anwar.

Do you know... Countless people in

the world die without loving.

One moment spent in love...

is much more than...

...a life spanning across

thousands of years.

You think that i am making a...

...mockery of myself

by falling in love.

Then i would like to remain

a fool forever.

Foolish... And mad.

Mad and foolish.

I don't know why.

One moment didn't pass

the whole night.

One moment didn't pass...

...brother! Brother! Your hindu...

udit has come.

Feeling nice?

Yes. Dear, on my knees.

He is not outside.

I saw him outside.

I thought he is coming to meet

you. So i informed you.

Are you sure he was udit, suraiyya?

Yes, brother. He was udit.

If it was his ghost, then

it is a different matter.

Suraiyya.

- Yes, mother.

I am feeling a bit worried.

Mother, you don't worry. You

will get well by this week.

The medicine that mehru's uncle

has send from kakori...

...that is really good, mother.

What are you doing? Are you mad?

- Its nothing.

What if mother wakes up?

Actually i was searching

for something.

I am sorry. I am fine.

Where are you nowadays?

I am making arrangement for us.

Paperwork and the rest.

And these american embassy

people are fools.

If they had a fight with

their wife at night...

...then the next day

the visa is rejected.

I got my visa. And i am out of here.

4 people were in front of me.

Just seeing them, they

rejected their visa.

They were khans.

Tell me one thing, anwar.

Why do you guys want to look

different from the rest?

Darwin has said that separating...

...from your species is the

beginning of an end.

Darwin was not a muslim.

And that too in an independent

country like ours.

If he had been, he would

have understood.

As to why a 15 years old boy

is taught to make a bomb.

And why he is taught to

start hating the world...

...before the world

starts hating him.

After september 11, muslims

all over the world...

...are been considered as terrorists.

By the way, i can go

on and on and on.

Had you come to my house

day before yesterday?

Day before yesterday? No.

4-3. Last time's score. Come.

How long will you lose from me?

At least win once before

i leave for america.

Yes. Look.

- Good shot.

Look, i know that you are very busy.

So i won't take much time.

I want to say something.

But many times you want

to say something...

...but in haste you don't say

what you want to say...

...and you end up saying all

that you didn't want to say.

I love you.

I am not a beggar!

I am an artist!

At times i am blind,

at times crippled...
