Dor
I've been waiting
with my arms outstretched
Lo! My prayers are answered
I've got my wish
This prayer of yours
shall not be answered
Every thing happens in its own pace
and place. And right now,
I have to fix this house,
else, there'll be a disaster
Get down.
- What are you doing?
Please
Marry me
Why?
- You will belong to me
I belong to you.
- For ever, I mean
Scared that I may stray?
Yes.
- And you feel that social practice...
is stronger than my will?
Zeenat, my strong lady love,
you can consider it...
my weakness, or apprehensiveness.
In fact, I'm tired of this hide-n-seek
I know that I was scared
of the world, not you
But I've had enough.
Marry me
Now? Right here?
Right time, right place
Hear ye all
The emperor is coming
After he's gone,
you will also go with us to the temple
It's beautiful.
- I will, uncle
on your journey
Where's my yoghurt shake?
Do I ever get it without asking?
I'll get it
Don't spoil her!
Henpecked husband
I'll miss you a lot
Only a matter of few months
Come back soon.
- Before I get over the memories?
These are unforgettable memories
I, Amir Khan, wish to marry you,
Zeenat Fatima
In mehr, I give you these earrings...
and my heart
I, Zeenat Fatima, approve of you
In mehr, I accept your earrings,
your heart,
your life and soul
My life, my soul
Don't weep. Don't make my journey
more difficult
I'm in pain, it's my choice
Do you know what I prayed for?
May this sun never set,
may this day never end
True. How do you know?
I can read your mind
Really?
What am I thinking of now?
Not here
Make our village proud
Bring glory to our country.
- I will, father
My respects.
- Bless you
Take care of yourself.
- And do write
Sure
And the money you will send,
don't send it by post
And eat well.
- I will
It contains food. Careful
Would you leave without
accepting our farewell, son?
You leave me with no choice
You should've at least asked us
before marrying, Amir
In getting your approval,
I lost two years, mother
Come here
Salaam Aleikom
Father, mother... this is Zeenat
Your daughter-in-law
You can accept this fact,
you can even hate it
As you know, she'll accept
any of your choices
We know
Then let's hear your decision.
- What's this hurry about?
Father, it's simple. Yes, or no
That's it. You'll hear of me
only when I return
Only Zeenat will get my letters
and phonecalls
Don't be so unsympathetic, son.
- Mother, have you ever realised...
how harsh you've been with me?
Take care of yourself
Write as soon as you reach
My last tears. I won't shed a tear
until you return
I used to wonder
why God created you
But now I just thank Him
everytime I breathe
O my poet, do write those words again
in your letters
lmagine me in it
Will you take care of me?
Welcome
Got the Sim card?
Hello?
Hello?
Turn this way,
or, you'll lose the network
Hello?
- All right
Hello?
- Hello, my love
How are you?
- First-class. And you?
I'm fine
I hope you are eating well?
- Will you ask me every month?
I just want to hear your voice
The voice of my freedom.
- What then happens of me?
I'm stuck between the earth and
the sun. You must feel the same
But please, go on speaking
Time up
Take my name
Yes
My name!
- Meera
Thanks. I'll call you next month
Take care of yourself
You still had ten seconds...
to say a few more things
Do drop in. Else, my business
will be ruined
How many months more?
About four months
Letter
In few months, we'll get possession
of the mansion of our ancestors
Our honour will also be restored
I had let it out
with a heavy heart
A man's honour is seriously attached
to his family and house
And the happiness that is
around us today, is thanks to you
What have I done?
It's your son who is earning
My son!
In the last 5 years
we couldn't repay...
what he has repaid
in just six months
True. But, it's thanks to
the Goddess of Wealth
Before marriage, your darling son
was a wastrel
Waleikom.
- Assalam
Mother,
why don't you employ someone?
I have told you several times
Old bones need some help
I can't believe how we made a mistake
in recognising you
Never mind, father. Even I thought
the two of you were quite touchy,
miserly, obstinate and high-handed
Why don't you keep some money?
You know that you
also have a right to it
Yes. But I'm not in need
Goodbye. God be with you.
- God be with you too
That will be mine and Shankar's room
Whose room will that one be?
- Raj
And that one will be
my mother-in-law's
And this one?
- For you
"My beautiful..."
"sweetheart,"
"come to me"
"Welcome..."
"to my land"
Your name is not here.
I'm surprised too
Brother hasn't ever been careless
I'll pay you next month.
Do you trust me?
I do trust...
- Then?
Just one minute
All right
Here
Hello?
I'm Meera here
It's mine
Amir?
Who's speaking?
Yes
It's okay, tell me
Okay
Amir has been arrested
on charges of murder
He's been given the capital punishment
Holy Priest, show us a way out
Trust Allah.
You must visit a mosque...
and make an offering
Are you Amir Khan's father?
- Yes
I'm Natarajan, I come from the
Ministry of External Affairs, Delhi
Even we have no clue
All we know is that Amir and
his roommate Shankar had a brawl
Shankar fell from the balcony.
Perhaps Amir pushed him
They lived on the tenth floor.
- Amir had told me about Shankar
They got along very well.
- Correct
Their neighbours too confirm that.
- Then this is certainly an accident
I too feel the same. I somehow managed
to have a word with Amir last week
He too said the same.
- We can have him released, can't we?
Please tell the police,
he is innocent...
Not that easy. There's no witness
We just have Amir's statement
Amir is a trucker, and...
- His life is not worth a deal, right?
Ma'am, such news is normally
given by the local police
But, I have personally come here,
on leave
Thank you for
the trouble you've taken
Can I talk to Amir?
We don't even know
where he is being held
The punishment will be carried out
in two months
In two months?
Look, I don't intend
to enliven your hopes
But perhaps, there is a way
As per Saudi law. If the widow
forgives her husband's killer...
if Shankar's wife signs
Amir's mercy petition...
Amir can be saved
Thank God. We'll send
these documents at once
The problem is, we have no idea
where she lives
Shankar was from Rajasthan, but
the address in his passport is fake
This practice is quite common. We are
investigating, but it'll take time
Our government is discussing it
with the Saudi government
Will take time?
I don't understand this
You are well-versed with the law.
Rajasthan is a huge state.
Our men are trying...
