Dil Ka Kya Kasoor Page #8

I think you failed to

recognize her. She is Shalu.

And Seema too!

She is the one...

...who took you to the

zenith of success!

She is the one who

bestowed fame on you.

She weaved her pain into words

to make your music come alive.

And in return, she never

asked for anything.

Or maybe we were incapable

of giving her anything.

You play strange games!

A player whose game

never ceases to exist!

Who plays his move

so heartlessly...

...that people sing your praises not

only when alive but after death too!

Whatever you gave me,

I bore it quietly.

You snatched my parents from me

but I bore that too silently!

I always prayed to you thinking, I

didn't know the right way to pray.

And I was elated when I achieved

all this name and fame.

I was unaware that it's foundation

was an a innocent girls corpse.

A girl with whom I had no

link, yet I was successful.

Every halting breath of hers

has a link with my success!

...and her death,

with my prestige...

...and her every pain has

a link with my happiness...

And her every tears

with my wealth!

What is my fault for

which she is paying...

...and I am bearing it?

Stop playing this game!

Because henceforth no one

will light a lamp here.

There will never be

brightness here.

Due to your obsessional love

you are like a caged bird...

...knowing that this

cage is not your home.

lnspite of being hers,

you never belonged to her!

She's done a lot for you

because she loved you!

She arranged for sponsors

and arranged shows.

She publicized about you in

news papers and magazine.

And on the basis of her

money she made you a star.

She created circumstances wherein

people started recognizing you.

Your success was her sole aim.

And one day, accompanied by

her brother she came to you.

Not to ask favours in

exchange of her sacrifices.

But to remain a slave to you.

But, ill luck followed her.

Her dreams were shattered

but not her courage.

She is doing all this

thinking of you as her husband.

She would never

come in front of you.

But today due to Mr. Verma,

you know her.

And that recognition

has devastated her, Arun.

Today Shalu has sent

me to tell you...

...not to misunderstand her.

And that she doesn't

intend to ruin your marriage.

Neither does she want anything

from you. She only knows to give.

During college too she loved you

and even now she loves you.

Because you are her God,

her life and her love!

Arun, she only knows to give,

she has never learnt to ask.

During college too Shalu loved

you and she loves you even now.

Because you are her life,

her love and her God!

- I can't do this. - Why

don't you understand, Arun?

You are not trying

to understand.

How can I sing under such

circumstances, Shashi?

It is better if you keep your personal

and professional lives apart.

How can I do something

which is not possible?

lam an artist and my voice

reflects my feelings.

And I can't lie

to my reflection!

When a heart breaks, the

pain in shattering, Shashi.

I can mask my face, but

how can I hide my tears?

An artist is capable of anything.

You are a public figure.

People want to see you in

the image they have of you.

People come to hear your

song, not your tale of woe.

This is selfishness and you

want me to become selfish?

- And forget her sacrifices.

- I never said that.

lam only trying to make

you understand...

...that first, as you have

a duty towards Shalu...

...you have a duty

towards your fans too!

Your popularity is

due to your fans.

They will be my fans till

Ms. Seema's songs are with me.

Don't put her on a pedestal.

What have you done for her?

Answer me! If you have an

ounce of respect for her...

...then don't shatter her

dreams. - What dream?

The dream of your success

which she had dreamt.

Prominent figures from here and

abroad will be present for this show.

And it was Seema's dream that you

be the most famous among them.

How can I do it, Shashi?

It is beyond my comprehension.

Don't spoil your chances by

canceling the show.

Don't ruin her dreams.

Look, I can understand

your problem.

But don't forget that

wherever you may be...

...Seema will always be close

to your voice and success.

Thanks!

Friends, I know your love

surpasses these words.

My voice is in debt of your

love. I'm grateful to you!

You have made me a star...

...but I have also considered

you as my friend.

Because I always thought

of myself as one of you all.

But last night,

I saw my true self.

And heard someone's sigh's

amidst the sound of the claps.

And for the first time,

I felt someone's tears.

I forget that at the

height of the fame...

...we may shine

like the stars...

...but we are not

responsible for its brightness.

The brightness is due to the

sun, whom we never remember.

My songs always wanted

to applaud its writer.

But I forget that in the

absence of those songs...

...I wouldn't be here and perhaps,

even you all wouldn't be here!

Friends, I have a

request to make...

That tonight we must thank

that great personality...

...whom we never remembered

and always neglected.

Friends, I have one

more request to make.

Tonight you will sing with me

and if my voice quivers...

...you will encourage me.

Do me one more favour.

- Switch off the lights, Meena.

- Why, are you afraid to face me?

I will make it dim.

So that at least your

shadow is visible.

I've seen you

after many days.

Besides, when a husband

tries to avoid his wife...

...the wife realizes that

her marriage is in jeopardy.

The husband may prefer

to be in the dark...

...yet the wife is able to

perceive his every move.

Whom are you running from, Arun?

From me or yourself?

...or from your past or from the

promise you gave my dying father...

...or from the fire, in front

of which you married me...

...in order to repay your

principaFs debt on you.

You repaid your debt

but now what about me?

Strengthen your weak hands

with the love of Shalu, Arun.

Snatch away these fake

symbols of marriage from me!

Enough, Meena!

Don't utter a word more.

Why, aren't you able

to bear the truth?

It's you who won't be able

to bear the truth, Meena.

The side you are viewing

is not the truth.

Shalu is just a

chapter from my past.

Don't lie. I have heard your

love story with my own ears.

- That is not my love story.

- Doesn't Shalu love you?

She does love me but

I don't love her.

- Liar! - I swear

on you that...

- Lies! - I swear on

my child that...

Don't lie to such

an extent, Arun.

Don't swear falsely on the

child who is yet unborn.

- How can I make you believe me?

- By swearing on your Ms. Seema.

I swear on her that I never

had a never loved Shalu.

But I worship her and my day

begins and ends with her name.

Because Shalu and Seema are

two face of the same person.

- What? - Yes. The one whom

we worshiped as God...

...is not God

but a weak girl.

We mistook the alms of a

helpless woman as gratitude!
