What's her name?

What girl, Pops?

The one whose face you see

in the moon.

l'm not one of them...

who will go craZy about a girl.

. Yes, l forgot!

Some have good lips, some have

beautiful eyes...

Lives where?

. Who, Pops?

This... Simran

Don't know

. How is she?

very lovable

Then what's the problem?

Problem is, she's about to marry.

. How about stopping the wedding?

ln yourtimes, it was different.

Times have changed

Love is still called ''love''. That has

never changed, norwill it ever change

She's going to be someone else's.

. The bride goes to the man...

who brings her home. l didn't sire

you to play that fiddle. We aren't...

those who stare at the moon. You

reach out to the moon,...

you bring her home. Go

And come home only

with your bride. Get it?

Gone. The daughter is

getting married.

They've sold out and moved to Punjab

l'm coming, Simran

l'm coming

''When the girls go to the riverbank,

you'll heartheir anklets chime''

''When the ripe mustard sways

in the farms...''

''you'll know a year

has come to pass''

''Come today, come with a smile,

bring me a song, l've been waiting...''

''forthe whistle

of the chugging train''

''Come home o'wanderer,

your mate beckons''

''Come home o'wanderer''

''Your land beckons''

Bless me, Ma.ji

No Ma.ji

Son, 20 years l've held back

these tears

Today, they won't stop, son.

Not today

Simran, my child

My baby doll

How have you been?

. l haven't changed a bit!

You're the bride's aunt now!

Time to find a good groom for yourself

Lajjo, l've been ready all these years!

But in this village...

there isn't one who's a match for me.

So what do l do? For me, l think...

it'll have to be a foreigner!

. You haven't changed a bit

Not a bit!

You did keep us waiting.

Anyway, better late than never

Wife, will you excuse us a moment?

. Get lost

Come on. Baldev, who's this?

Go on...

You don't know?

My daughter Preeti

kuljit's sister.

. May you live long

Wonderful, isn't it? ln 20 years,

the whole generation has come of age

She's beautiful.

. Father's daughter, right?

Get lost

Where's kuljit?

. Yes, where's kuljit?

Bhaiyya (Brother) is out for a hunt.

He should be back soon

My respects.

. May you live long, son

My respects.

. May you live long, son

That's a strong lad from Punjab.

. Whose son is he anyway?

Get lost

Come, breakfast is ready.

. Yes hurry. l'm famished

Come on kids

For you, for you and for you

You must take me out

tomorrow morning.

Sure Didi (Sister)

kids, Grannie wants

everyone downstairs

You know Simi, when l was a kid,

my fatherwould tell me...

there's no difference between

man and woman. All have eQual rights

All my childhood, l lived believing

it's true. But as l grew up...

l realised what a lie that is

l wasn't given an education,

because it was more important...

that my brothers be educated.

That was my first sacrifice

Then, at every step, sometimes

as daughter, sometimes as sister...

sometimes as wife... l went on

sacrificing my own happiness

But once you were born...

when l held you in my hands

forthe first time...

l made a promise, neverto let happen

to my daughter, what happened to me

No more sacrifices at every step

as daughter, as sister, as wife

So what if she's a girl?

She'd live her life as she wishes

She'd have her share of happiness.

But l was wrong, Simran

l had even forgotten that a woman

hasn't even the right to make promises

She is born to be sacrificed for

their men. Fortheirwomen...

men will never make sacrifices,

norwill they ever make sacrifices

Therefore l, your mother, come to

take from you, your own happiness

Forget him, my child. Forget. Because

your fatherwon't care for yourtears

Forthe happiness of everyone,....

l beg of you. Forget him, my child

You're right, Ma

So naive of me. l don't even know

whether he loves me

And after all, Babuji is my father.

He has always cared for my happiness

Forthe sake of his happiness,

can l not make this little sacrifice?

Go Ma, go and tell Babuji that

l'm ready forthe wedding

He won't have any problems

from my end

Your girl is beautiful

Not the girl. kuljit is plain lucky

And my name is rajeshwari.

Miss rajeshwari Singh

lf the little one is like this,

what will the older one be like?

l'll tell you, afterthe wedding

Listen

The day aftertomorrow is the

engagement

The wedding is on the 25th

Sweets

l'm worried about something

l don't know why l see this

sadness in Simran's eyes.

Even her smile is hesitant.

ls everything all right?

lt's nothing, Ma

lt's a new place, it's a change.

ln a few days, she'll adjust

Don't worry for nothing

Here you are, kheer

Simran hasn't forgotten him yet?

. She has agreed to get married

By and by she will forget everything.

. lf she remembers, she'll regret it

''l saw you, l realised...''

''what madness love is''

''When l saw you, l realised...''

''what madness love is''

''From here, where to?''

''Just let me die in your arms''

''My eyes...

dream of you''

''My heart holds memories of you''

''Nothing's mine.

lt's all yours''

''My life, my breath is yours''

''When l weep for you, yourtears...''

''my sorrows begin to smile''

''l saw you, l realised...''

''what madness love is''

''From here, where to?''

''Just let me die in your arms''

''l don't feel like anything''

''What do l say, what do l do?''

''ln front of me...

just keep sitting''

''Just let me look at you''

''You called out to me,

and look, here l am''

''What greaterthan

the promise to love?''

''l saw you, l realised...''

''what madness love is''

''l saw you, l realised...''

''what madness love is''

''From here, where to?''

''Just let me die in your arms''

Take me away from here, raj.

Take me away from here!

What...?

. You don't know...

what's going on in there!

Day aftertomorrow is the engagement

The wedding is after a fortnight.

All arrangements are in place

Babuji gave his word to his friend.

And he lives by his word

He can do anything, but he can't

go back on his word

We have to run from here. We must!

. No Simran. l'm not eloping

l haven't come here to steal you.

l might have been born in England

But l am Hindustani. l've come here

to take you as my bride.

l'll take you only when

your Babuji gives me your hand

You don't know my Babuji!

We have to get away from here, raj.

Please raj, take me away from here

Do you love me?

. More than anyone else

Do you trust me?

. More than l trust myself

Then listen carefully to what

l'm going to say. From now on...

we're strangers. l don't know you

and you don't know me. Go back

Let things happen as they're happening.

Leave the rest to me

What l'm upto is daunting. But l have

complete faith in our love.

But alone...l cannot tread upon

this path.

You will have to be my strength

You must co.operate. Tell me,

will you stand by me?

remember one more thing.

l'm here only for your sake.

Till l have you for lifetime's
