Nobody listened to me.

Careful siddhu.

- Even i told him to be careful.

You talk.

Did you see... stupid phones.

Met with an accident?

- Hang the phone.

I want to talk to you.

My father asked me to talk to you.

I heard that you met with an accident.

Did you have medicine?

Sister gave me.

Juice.

- Servant gave me.

Food.

- Mother fed me.

I feel sleepy. Bye.

Picked up the phone

on the first ring!

Didn't you go to bed?

Tell me, what is it.

I'm going out for an ice cream.

Come siddhu.

Ice cream at this hour?

Going alone?

That's why i called you.

I won't come. You also don't go.

How did you father allow you to go out now?

I gave him 4 pegs of your brand liquor.

He won't get up till dawn.

- You also go to bed.

You don't want me to trust everyone.

And you wouldn't come either.

How is this possible?

I'm telling you not to go out

at this hour. Listen to me.

So, you won't come, ah? I'm going.

Go.

One butter scotch.

You said you won't come.

Want to eat?

One more.

- Okay.

Give me a small one.

I have only rs. 10.

Take it sir.

You don't want ice cream?

Give me the bigger one.

- Rs. 25.

Get it from her.

Ganesh, i'll pay you tomorrow.

- Ganesh...?

Is he also your friend?

I told you not to go

why did you come out?

You said you won't come.

Why did you come then?

I will slap you...

poor girl... - ganesh, please...

how could you go when i am talking to you?

Why did you call me?

Unnecessary tension.

Why should you get tensed?

If something happens to you...

what will happen?

Don't you know?

Listen to what i say.

Okay. I won't come out for

ice creams at night.

Smile once, please.

Go.

No. Ice cream at midnight?

I said you can come out.

Come out but do call me.

I will take you out.

- Really?

Even at 1 am?

We have come to your house. Go.

Tell me.

How will you go all alone?

Shall i accompany you?

I drea.m.

I dreamt sometime ago...

i fell in love with you somewhere...

you're my imagination...

you're my dream girl...

my heart said you're mine...

i drea.m.

When someone asks me

the sweetest thing in my life...

the first thing that would strike

my mind is your name...

when someone asks me

the happiest thing in my life...

it would be the path you go...

when someone asks me about

the sky's missing blue color...

i would tell them that

it is in your eyes...

i drea.m.

I'll curse myself if i fail to express

my feelings to you...

i'll praise myself if you say

what i want to say...

i'll be myself if you are with me...

else i will go mad...

it's you people who should be blamed.

You proved him in the name gang's honour.

Now look what he says.

- Are we the reason for him to fall in love?

His father fixed his engagement.

Do you know the problems that may

arise if they come to know about this?

So what?

Do you know his problems?

We know him.

We have been with him since childhood.

He doesn't know what kind

of a girl he wants.

But now he says he knows.

Why don't you listen to him?

I'm warning you about the

problems he might have to face.

What problems?

- Stop it.

What are you talking?

We are worried about your life.

- Bhanu, my... life will be very fine.

I'm a good boy.

If hasini is with me,

i will be happy all my life.

I love her.

Does hasini know this?

I will tell her tomorrow.

Tell me.

I ask you something.

Will you answer me straight?

I thought you called me here

to say something.

But if it is about asking me...

go ahead.

What's there between us?

I'm talking to you.

What's there between us?

Nothing.

I'm very serious.

What's there between us?

That's what i'm asking you.

I will tell you later.

When?

- After 5 years.

Minimum 4 and half year.

I don't have that much time.

Tell me now.

Okay. I will tell you.

Don't you have secrets?

Don't you have anything personal?

Just listen to me.

- No. I won't.

Listen to me, i say.

No siddhu.

Now you'll say something.

And if i tell that to others,

you will shout at me.

Please listen to me, hasini.

No. I won't.

Listen i say.

If you don't, i will tell it to everyone.

Hello, you are very beautiful!

I love you.

He has told everyone. Idiot.

Okay, come & tell me.

I drea.m.

Come.

Who is she?

Did you tell her?

Did she agree?

- She's my fiance.

I never tried to hide it from you.

If i really did, i would've never

told you even now.

The engagement was against my wish.

But still, the engagement stands.

But that is my problem.

I will handle it.

You don't know how important

you are to my life.

Only after meeting you,

i'm happy for the first time in my life.

And i want it all my life.

If you really trust me, think over it.

I will wait for you.

Have you bought the ticket?

It's your stop to get down.

There you are.

What should i make for dinner?

She looks very upset.

I will prepare something.

I'm coming.

Is it the telephone department?

For telugu, press 2.

- I will crush your neck.

I don't want to be like this.

I don't like to keep brooding

over it for hours.

You said that i do what i like.

You are not interested in

that marriage, are you?

Then, don't marry.

Do what you like.

I trust you.

Bye.

- Stop hasini.

What do you mean?

I didn't get you.

Try to be clear.

How could you go away just like that?

What do you mean?

I don't want this shade.

Give me another one.

What is the new hair dye in the market?

She will charge you too.

- No way.

What's happening here?

Is this house or a beauty parlour?

Clean it.

Tell him to come to office

from tomorrow.

Why are you like this? Say something.

I love that girl.

You love that girl!

Do you remember you're already engaged?

Your marriage is fixed with a girl,

and you've promised to marry her too.

Do you remember that?

We elders decided it.

Now, you say that...

You could've told me then.

We did ask you, didn't we?

You could've told us that you didn't like her.

Tell me.

I didn't have reasons to

tell you on that day.

Do you have reasons now?

What is the reason?

You like this girl, right?

I have 100s of reasons to say

that i don't like her.

Shall i tell you all that?

I've 100s of reasons to say that

i don't like her. Shall i tell you all that?
