Break Ke Baad Page #6

- Gulati.

Didnt tell you cos I

knew youd freak out!

Dont friends fit

into your plans anymore?

Not fair!

You used to make

time for me earlier.

Not fair!

Yes, Ive packed the pickles.

Hang up and save your money.

Youre arrivingjust a

day before my graduation.

Abhay and Cyrus have a meeting.

Nadia has to manage the Shack.

Nobody loves me.

Why couldnt you come earlier?

I need to discuss

an important thing.

What happened?

Well talk face to face.

Its kind of big.

Your big is usually a big bomb.

You know I dont like surprises.

But..

- Aaliya Khan.

Just a second.

Gotta run, ma. Bye.

Nervous?

- Not at all.

Good, cos you can nail it.

Thats what Im nervous about.

And now weve reached the

end of another academic year

Congratulations, class of 2009.

You are all now graduates.

Thats it Ayesha. No more courses.

Im fed up of studying.

Thank God!

So whats your big surprise?

Youve kept me in

suspense since yesterday.

Yes, I..

Gulati!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Have you told her yet?

Im shitting bricks!

Dont worry, youll be fine.

You know how she is.. -Yes.

Dont give her less

credit than she deserves.

Hey..

Ill be right

here waiting for you!

Chill! Its just an offer..

..its not like

youve signed a contract.

Al..!

- So thats your big surprise.

Congratulations, aunty.

Congratulations to you too.

Im happier about this

than your graduation.

I knew it. This

break-up wouldnt last long.

But how did this happen?

And please dont

take an eternity again..

..get married soon.

Marriage? Where did that come from?

Even Abhays managed to move on.

Aaliya.

Abhay, tell her that

were just friends.

Were just friends.

Gelato, are you..?

Were just friends.

So what was your news?

What was the surprise?

Mother, I..

Promises, commitments, feelings..

..these things mean nothing to you.

Dont pretend to ask after

youve signed the contract.

I dont mind your having dreams..

..but I mind that our feelings are

nothing but hurdles in your path.

People dont love you

because youre special Aaliya.

Youre special because a few people

in this world love you immensely.

Sometimes, despite the way you are.

And today you proved

how foolish they are!

I didnt want this.

I just..

- You cant expect everything..

.. and not expect to get hurt.

Im sorry.

I didnt want to hurt you.

When we broke up, I refused

to accept it as a possibility.

I didnt believe you.

That was my fault.

You did move on.

Youre lucky you can.

Goodbye!

- Gulati?

Im off.

Rain.. It will wash it all away.

Lit up, youll see it,

a whole new way.

Slowly, yesterday will ebb away..

Slowly, making way for a new day.

Like a roof of sunlight..

Like a slip-sliding road..

This is but a

gentle detour on my way.

Like a roof of sunlight..

Like a slip-sliding road..

This is but a

gentle detour on my way.

If you believe, sun is shining,

love is lighting your way.

Im sorry. And

thanks for everything.

Drops of realisation

trickle down on me..

Im haunted by a

thirst from before..

But I see new clouds dancing above..

..kissing my forehead,

with drops of love.

Letting go.. it is time, I know.

Seasons have changed in a burst.

I take a small step,

perhaps my first.

Like a roof of sunlight..

Like a slip-sliding road..

This is but a

gentle detour on my way.

This is but a

gentle detour on my way.

I didnt choose my dream, ma..

..it chose me.

But I will not lose you for it.

I will walk towards but

only with you beside me..

And if you arent

ready to stand by my side..

..then Ill wait.

But I wont do this without you.

I wont leave you alone like dad.

I am so sorry, Aaliya.

Your dream wasnt wrong, dear.

Your means were callous.

How much dough do you need

for the kitchen expansion?

Wow, did we make a profit?

- Buzz off.

Nice.

Now Cyrus will go on a holiday..

.. after which you

will expand the kitchen.

No one will touch this money.

Were going to

open a new restaurant.

The Investors loved

our restaurant plan.

The paperwork will be done tomorrow.

Are you serious? We got funding?

Does that mean I can now..

- No, Cy.

I hate you guys.

Absolutely.

It was my idea to open an

Indian restaurant. - Hi, Cy.

Here is my partner. Gelato Gulati.

Congratulations, man!

Houseful on the first

day itself. - Thanks, man.

No free drinks.

Abhay.

Nice place.

Abhay, had I known

youre so talented..

..Id have thrown you out years ago.

Im sorry, Papa.

I didnt tell you earlier

cos even I didnt know..

Abhay, my dream wasnt that

youll learn to manage my theatre..

..but that youll

learn to manage your life.

My dreams come true.

Youre finally on your feet..

..earning as well.

So you and Aaliya..

No, Papa.

We wont discuss that.

That topic is closed, please.

Fine, lets talk

about something else.

Why.. dont you get married?

Shes cute.

And shell turn eighteen soon.

Happiness hung from

a branch so elusive..

..but I leaped and

caught its fragrance.

So fragile, but we

inevitably slipped..

..but I will heal, I

will rewrite my script!

I can see the shore,

I see the light..

..new stars wink at me from the sky!

The flights day after tomorrow.

Next Monday flight to Gold Coast.

By the time I realized

that my parents are right..

..my own daughter was standing in

front of me telling me I was wrong!

I was trying to protect you from

making the mistakes I had made.

But I forgot.. youre not like me.

Youre much stronger.

Still have a knack for dialogues!

Whyd you quit acting?

Go back, Aaliya.

Follow your heart.

Like a roof of sunlight..

Like a slip-sliding road..

This is but a

gentle detour on my way.

Like a roof of sunlight..

Like a slip-sliding road..

This is but a

This is but a

This is but a

This is but a

Come on, Aunt Pammi.

You know Im not

interested in marriage.

So why should I meet any more girls?

Cos thats the only way!

Just meet them, then say no!

Oh, please..

Is this seat taken?

Are you meeting a girl?

A beautiful babe.

Can I go now?

- Dont ever call me that.

She sounds like a vixen too.

Bye aunty!

I cant believe the

restaurants completed a year.

Happy anniversary.

- Yes, whatever.

Everything began in

this shack. Thanks..

I owe you guys everything, or Id

still be rotting at the taxi stand..

..and Cyrus would be

rotting in a beer can.

Were even!

No one owes sh*t!

A toast..!

To Cyrus..!

Who achieved nothing

in life, till today!

This restaurant is my first..

- And sole!

And soul milestone.

Well done, Cyrus.

Cheers!

Whats a soul?

What you can only hope for.

Surprise!

- Surprise!

Shes shooting a film here.

Aunty Ayesha agreed.

Why dredge up whats over..

- Just a minute.

Have you been on a single
