One is a nice dog

and the other is an evil one

They're always at

loggerheads with each other

The one we feed more

is the one who will win

"So kick the bad dog

in you, my friend!"

And feed the nice dog

Do you get what I'm saying?

"Keep scolding me like this.

I like it very much, Sidharth"

And don't ever talk

about giving up again

I'll never let you give up

"I don't know why, but I feel

very scared when I look at you"

"Kabir... Iook,

I'll have to go"

Try to understand my problem

Rohit is expected tomorrow

"Sonia, there is only

one solution to this problem"

Divorce Rohit.

- Divorce?

"I cannot divorce him, Kabir"

You don't know that man.

He is very dangerous

Dangerous? So what can he do?

Kill?

"Yes.

He will kill me, and you too"

The man is so cheap...

...that he made me sign

papers before our marriage...

"...that if I divorce him..."

...he will not give me a

penny from his property

"That means, after marriage, you

will become penniless like me"

"I don't like such pranks, Kabir"

"If I don't have any money,

will you still love me?"

Will it make any difference?

- Difference? Difference

I want that you

have so much money...

...that I continue to

enjoy life like this

"Truly speaking,

...it won't make any difference"

Just a minute.

I have a surprise for you

"Not only beautiful, but when

your life is in trouble..."

"...wear it,

it will protect you"

"It's magic, it's a spell,

I'm bewitched"

Where can I go leaving you now

The way your eyes look at me

Where do I hide myself now

This moment is ours

Let us live this moment

"Like smolders,

let us live a burning life"

Don't disappear in a blink

Let me touch you and believe it

"Who knows when I'll

get these moments again"

It's magic...

"Is that you, my love?"

"Sonia, you are great."

How did you know I was

going to come a day earlier?

By keeping my favorite

champagne in the fridge...

"...to celebrate my return,

you have won me over!"

I am very fortunate

to get a wife like you.

"Who is not only beautiful,

but also loves me very much."

Let's go in.

There is someone.

There is someone

here apart from us.

There is someone here.

Got scared?

"I was just joking.

Sorry, love."

Anoushka has come. I have

brought my niece along with me.

"Because of her alcoholism,

her mother is in hospital again."

Pray that she quits drinking.

"You'll die if you

drink so much, Kabir."

"Who is afraid of death, Sheeba?"

I am afraid of life.

One has to live it.

Someone has broken your heart.

I have tormented you a lot.

Only when I myself

am suffering...

...is when I realized

how I've made you suffer

"One Vodka,

one crate Sandpiper"

Two crates Zingaroo.

- Give me half a bottle of rum

Five bottles Signature whiskey.

And don't forget to put red wine

And one champagne.

Don't forget champagne.

"You can keep doing that,

just give me half a bottle of rum"

"Please wait for two minutes, sir.

There is a party in Khanna House today"

This is their order.

If the delivery is delayed...

the entire order will get canceled

for your half bottle of rum

Let me tell you.

One who invests

So a party is going on there?

"You are having

a ball, aren't you?"

Liquor is flowing freely.

And you must be sitting

very close to Rohit Khanna.

Right?

And here I am all alone... Ionely.

And craving for you

"Don't play that

trick with me, Sonia!"

Love! Iove!

"Call for me?

- No, a blank call"

I was telling them...

I'll not gain a penny

from this party.

What is this?

The festival of lights?

Anoushka has kept all the

lights in the house on.

This kid is a real bother.

"She forgets to switch off

the geyser, close the tap..."

She is listening to music

in the bedroom upstairs.

"I'll put her to sleep, or she

will insist on sleeping with us."

"Okay darling, I'll switch

off the lights and come."

Come soon.

Kabir!

What are you doing here?

"Let me go, Kabir. Leave me, please!

Let me go!"

"No, I won't let you go.

I won't let you go to that man."

"Stay with me tonight,

and every night thereafter."

"Sonia, let's go from here."

We'll elope and get married.

- Have you gone crazy?

What are you saying?

That cannot happen.

"Kabir, that man is waiting

for me. Try to understand"

What do you want me to understand?

That he is waiting for you in bed?

And that even you are

desperate to warm his bed?

"You have gone mad!

I will have to go to him, Kabir"

"Love, she wants you to

find her walkman right now"

Or narrate stories

to her all night

So better think.

- Let's go.

Kabir's case is going on

day and night.

Hey Kabir!

- Get up!

Patel pleads me to

do something for him.

He must still be sleeping. He mustn't

have sobered from yesterday's binge yet

Is he sleeping?

I don't think he is inside

I think he is inside with some girl.

Is there a girl with you?

"Kabir, are you sleeping?

Is there a girl inside?"

Come out.

There is no one inside. And

we cannot break open the door.

We are the police. We'll have to file

a case against ourselves. Forget it

Ignore it.

- No...

"Who... rascal, why don't you speak?

Why don't you speak now, you rascal?"

You have troubled us all

night with your blank calls

You don't know me yet.

I am a very bad man.

I understand everything!

I am not stupid

"If I come across you, I'll skin

you alive. Why don't you speak?"

You've been troubling

us with blank calls

Even having a beautiful

wife is a problem

Give me that towel

'I came across her'

"'And what I feared, happened"'

"Mr. Lal, you?!"

"Sorry, I forgot your first name"

He is a renowned

lawyer of the city

He is interested in

selling our property

"Pleased to meet you, Mr. Lal."

But I won't sell my property.

It's beautiful.

That's true.

Your property is beautiful

Have you come here to dine?

"Yes, when I have money in

my pocket, I come for a drink"

"Have you come alone,

or do you have company?"

No.

It's just me and my Ioneliness

This will be fun

"Come have a drink with me,

and bring along your Ioneliness"

"No sir, I don't want

to snatch your privacy."

Not at all

Haven't you heard that when a marriage

becomes a few years old...

"...it doesn't need two,

but three people to keep it."

"Right, love?"

I have a complaint

"This is the only complaint

I have against my heart"

What it cannot get

Why does it crave for it

This is the only complaint...

"Your tresses, your eyes"

"O, your beauty!"

And glowing with fragrance...

...is your fair body

I am aware...

"...that you

belong to someone else"

This is the only complaint...

"Without you..."

...I fear life

"I am dying a

little everyday..."

...is what I feel

That is why I...

...hate my life

This is the only complaint...

It's me.

Don't pretend this

is a blank call

Or I'll come right

into your bedroom!

And do everything with you

that hasn't happened until now

You understand?

- I'm listening

I know where

you are right now.

You are sleeping in the
