l can foresee nothing but ruination.

No, you mustn't say that, sister.

Her wounds are deep and fresh now.

But Time is the greatest healer.

And a companion like Ramesh...

will heal all her wounds.

Ramesh will love her so much...

that he'll give her new reasons

to live and new desires in her life.

You will see Sarla, after the wedding

their life will be full of joy.

Joy, certainly.

And why not after a friend

has stabbed a friend?

Ramesh!

No Ramesh, don't

get me wrong, brother.

l'm not getting you wrong, Gopal.

Mamdu has told me what l never knew.

And from your words l know

what friendship means to you.

You might build a Palace of Joy

on your friend's grave, not l.

No Ramesh! l ask you just one thing.

lsn't sacrifice

a principle of friendship?

Can't someone sacrifice for a friend?

- Sure Gopal, he can.

But why must you sacrifice? Why not l?

- ln fact l'm asking you to sacrifice

Gopal...?

- Yes Ramesh. l loved a girl.

For the sake of her happiness

l beg of you.

lf you can sacrifice for a friend,

then marry her.

And fill her life with all the joy

that l cannot offer her.

So you want me to commit

two murders, Gopal?

You're still a layman as far as

friendship is concerned.

ln fact you still haven't

understood love.

How could you think after the

accident Usha will stop loving you?

Don't ask me. l know it very well.

What she said in Gulmarg

still rings in my ears. She said...

ls a handicapped life worth living?

l'd rather kill myself.

No Gopal, it's wrong, absolutely.

She still loves you...

Don't argue, Ramesh.

Why don't you understand?

A chasm has developed between us

l've lost a leg, Ramesh.

l'm not worthy of her anymore.

Believe me Ramesh, memories of love

can keep me alive.

But for God's sake don't ask me

to live at the mercy of someone.

Which memories of love can keep

you alive? The love that you spurned?

You remember just a few words?

But don't you remember...

that a girl didn't even bother to ask

your name, nor your address...

yet she submitted her

very being to you?

D'you also forget what you told me?

That, the body loses life,

but the soul and love never dies.

How come today the body

means everything to you?

A small part of it is severed, and

did you see love falling apart?

l ask you, had this accident occurred

after we married...

would you still have

deserted me like this?

Now you consider love and physical

beauty go hand-in-hand, don't you?

Then let me prove today,

whether the body lives or dies...

love always stays alive.

See for yourself.

Ramesh, don't worry about me.

Stop Usha, she might try something.

Go Ramesh.

You too, Sarla.

Ma, Usha ran away.

l've lost a leg, Ramesh.

l'm not worthy of her anymore.

What were you upto, Usha?

What did you intend to do?

Nothing. l was trying to become

worthy of you.

So that there won't be any difference

between us... nor any distance.

Forgive me, Usha.

Don't forgive him, Usha.

He has inflicted deep wounds

on love and friendship.

Don't ever forgive him.

Ramesh, don't get me wrong.

l wanted all of you to be happy.

- He's honest, Ramesh.

Not for himself, this man endured

the misery for the sake of all of us.

Oh, what have you done, Gopal?

Silly, why didn't you tell me before?

Forgive me, Ma. l couldn't pick up

courage enough to tell you.

l understand. You thought

Ma wouldn't bear it, no?

Silly, can such a brave son's mother

be so weak?

Look at Usha.

The poor thing endured so much just

because of your misconception.

Usha my child, come to me.

Come, let me see

the two of you together.

Bless you, dear.

May God preserve the couple.

By Allah...

may not two lovers ever part.

Sir, l'm Mamdu, the expert in love.

Didn't l get the two of you together?

Annoyed, where will you go?

Wherever you go...

you will find me there

Where will you go now?

Did you say something?

- No.

Really?
