"The two of you ought to sit together,

isn't it? Husband and wife?"

"For a week now, we've been

having a fight"

This is terrible!

You have a cellphone?

"Papa, you know how bad the

weather in Athens is"

The flight is delayed

by eight hours

"Please make everybody

see reason, Papa"

"That boy has been playing for so long,

but no one is giving him any money"

Know why?

- Why?

"There's nothing in his music,

his tune, his talent..."

So you know a lot about music?

- Don't you remember Mahabaleshwar?

"To the land of love,

let's go?"

You know how well I sing. I'll wake

you up with a song every morning...

and put you to sleep with a lullaby.

I'll be your walking-talking radio

What an ugly dog! How horrifying!

Exactly. Such a cutely ugly dog

"Oh yes, sweetly ugly"

You like it?

- Yes

You want it?

- Yes

May I get it for you?

You have amazing aim.

Maybe the cans are at the wrong place?

"No, I was only practicing.

Just watch now"

Go ahead and laugh

"While you aim, I'll have an ice-cream.

- I'll do it right now"

"You can't do it, Raj.

- Of course, I can"

"Raj, you can't do it!"

"Raj, you can't do it"

I know I can't do it.

But what can I do?

Is that true?

- Lies

So how did you get this?

- That uncle gave it away to me

Just like that?

- Not just like that

He gave it away when he saw

how much I love you

But I regret...

- What happened?

A stranger in an alien land

understands my feelings

"But the one who ought to,

does not"

"Priya, I have decided.

- What?"

"After our marriage, one meal

I will cook on my own"

I'll take care of the kids too

I know a bit of homeopathy too.

You'll never have coughs and colds

"Your minor ailments,

I'll drive away in a jiffy"

"I am mechanic anyway, right?"

"That woman's wish will

be fulfilled, Raj!"

"Funny. Toss a coin in the lake,

get a naked kid to fetch it..."

"and your wish will be fulfilled.

- People here believe that, Raj"

Do you believe it?

- Yes. Do you have a coin?

"I have a coin of the commission.

Don't lose it, okay?"

"Look over there, idiot"

Found it!

Why did you jump into the water?

- To get the coin

I know. But who asked you to?

"Your face did.

- I'm not joking, Raj"

"Neither am I. The expression on

your face said, "Raj, take a jump"

And Raj took the jump!

"Nice photograph, isn't it?"

What did you ask for

at the wishing well?

Nothing.

- Oh come on. Tell me

I asked to reach home on time

That?

- Yes

Know what I'd have asked for?

- I know

"This is a new one...

- I know, Raj..."

Listen to it once...

- I don't want to

Listen Priya...

You didn't realise...

the crazy lover that I am...

"I had brought to you

my heart as a gift"

To the story of my heart...

"please listen,

lend me your ear..."

"choose me as your

companion"

You're silent...

and I wonder...

"how I will tell you

the secret"

I could die for you...

I speak the truth...

"ask for my life,

if you will"

"Please listen,

lend me your ear..."

"choose me as your

companion"

I'm lonely...

you're lonely too

"lmagine how would things be,

if we got together?"

"Every goal, had we crazy lovers..."

to take the caravan of our love...

"please listen,

lend me your ear..."

"choose me as your

companion"

You didn't realise...

the crazy lover that I am...

"I had brought to you

my heart as a gift"

To the story of my heart...

"please listen,

lend me your ear..."

"choose me as your

companion"

"Not to worry, Priya.

I've made all enquiries"

Even if the flight is delayed

for another 12 hours...

there are several more places

we still haven't seen

"Look, I've even got the map.

The nightspots..."

It's very necessary for me

to get home

They must all be waiting for me

Papa had asked me to reach there

a day or two in advance

It's all my fault.

I have delayed everything

"Don't cry, please"

"You've got to get to Athens, right?"

I'll take you to Athens

Just don't cry

Not yet. Let me take you home first

What time have you got to be there?

- At eleven

I'll take you there by 7:30. C'mon.

- Are you going to drive all night?

Won't you be tired?

- Very much

"But once I've taken you there,

I'll get all the rest"

Let's go

We're home?

- Yes

When?

Fourteen minutes ago

Why didn't you wake me up?

I thought of waking you.

But then I thought...

"if I woke you, you'd awaken..."

"and had you awoken,

you'd go away"

And if you had gone away...

how would I look at you

from so close?

"Raj, we have spent very little time

together. But it was beautiful"

So don't say such things

when you're going away

I'll get your luggage out

Are you keeping my jacket?

- No

I have a few things in this.

Look

Our boarding passes from Mumbai.

I'll keep yours

And the amusement park tickets.

I'll keep one

The restaurant bills.

I'll keep these too

"This coin, you keep"

I got it from the lake for you

All this?

When I miss you...

I'll have these things

And now for this photo

You keep it.

- No

We ought to be fair

You keep this part

Priya didi (didi: Sister)

"Didi, come!"

"Time to go away, isn't it?"

"But I had to go away, Raj"

True

"Make a wish, Priya.

- What?"

Just like that

"May you always be happy

in life, Priya"

"May you never have to say,

If only in life..."

like the hero of my story said

May you have everything

your heart desires

"Remember, Priya. There will be

a man in the world somewhere..."

who will be very happy...

because you are happy

"That's it, that's all"

Don't ask me to come in

I won't be able to refuse you

Nor will I be able

to go in

"C'mon, Priya didi... c'mon!"

Very fine. Congratulations

on your daughter's engagement

"Thank you.

- Where's she, by the way?"

Where is she?

- She'll be here any moment

She's not ready yet?

- She's a girl

It takes time for them

to get ready

"I know I don't

stand a chance, Priya"

"But I don't want to say

If only all my life"

"I tried to make you see reason, Raj...

- I see reason, Priya. I see it"

But my heart won't

"A stranger in an alien land

understands my feelings..."

"but the one who must understand,

won't understand"

"Priya, I have decided.

- What?"

"After our marriage,

I'll cook one meal for us"

I'll look after the kids too

"Remember, there will be someone

happy somewhere in the world..."

because you are happy

"Papa, I have something

to tell you"

"What is happening, grandma?"

Why have you to think so much?

"You're not going to

do as she says, will you?"

Priya's marrying Sameer

and Sameer alone

"Auntie, Priya won't be

happy with the marriage"

And I understand that pretty well.

- But Sameer...

"No, I don't want our marriage

to be based on a compromise"

"Sameer, I came here

for the engagement"

But how was I to know that

all this would happen on the way?

"I understand, Priya.

- You understand nothing, Sameer"

And why are you quiet?

You are the bride's father

Say something

"My child, are you sure he's a nice

boy and that he'll keep you happy?"
