Synopsis: Choices - to choose between right or wrong is simple, but what defines one's life is the decision between the greater of two goods or the lesser of two evils. This is the advice that Zooni Ali Beg (Kajol) receives from her father just as she is about to venture out into the world of her own for the very first time. Little does she know that these very words will shape her life. Zooni, a blind Kashmiri girl, meets Rehan Qadri (Aamir Khan), a local Delhi tour guide and an incorrigible flirt. Her friends warn her against this good-for-nothing roadside Romeo, but she chooses to ignore them. It is now her time to discover life and love. Is this really the right choice? Rehan is fascinated by Zooni and wants her to see life as it should be seen, in its many colours. He promises her that the time spent with him will be the most precious in all her life. Zooni sees Delhi, life and love like she never has before, because of Rehan. What Zooni doesn't know is that Rehan has another side of his li

There is no limit to

human desire, no dearth.

After 2 yards of burial cloth,

we still want 2 yards of earth. "

Superb!

Superb! Outstanding!

I'll look pain square in the eye,

face every test laid out for me.

For the sake of your friendship..

.. dear friend,

I'll even love my enemy. "

Oh yeah, I love your style!

The emperor Shah Jahan once

walked these lanes of the Red Fort.

And so did Mumtaz, his very,

very beautiful wife.

Careful!

I can manage myself.

But how will I manage myself,

around you.

Ms. Bobo. Excuse me.

Shall we?

Bobo, tell me,

what does he look like?

Killer, girl, a real killer.

"Marvelous. "

He's simply obnoxious!

He looks ok, so I thought

he must be a nice guy..

.. but he called me a

stupid girl.. so..

And forget all his sweet talk..

.. the way he looks at women,

its shameful!

And he told me he doesn't believe

in God, can you imagine that?

Look even the crows

are cawing. It's a sign.

Stay away from that Rehan guide.

How can you stay away

from me and go?

How can your heart forget me so?

That fragrance on your breath is me.

How ever will you stop,

not breathe?"

Great! Fabulous!

Come on, let's go.

- Come.

"Marvelous. "

"If the moon was to recommend me. "

"This is what he'd say to you. "

"I want to drop

the veil of decency. "

"I want to cross

the line with you. "

"I insist on destroying myself. "

"On destroying myself in you. "

"If the moon was to recommend me. "

"This is what he'd say to you. "

"I want to drop

the veil of decency. "

"I want to cross

the line with you. "

"Your charms are

like a gentle breeze. "

"Let them touch me as you pass. "

"Your every moe a graceful branch. "

"Please moe into my heart. "

"Come into my arms,

any excuse will do. "

"For I must,

I must destroy myself in you. "

"If the moon was to recommend me. "

"This is what he'd say to you. "

"I want to drop

the veil of decency. "

"I want to cross

the line with you. "

"Marvelous. "

"If I tell you my true intentions. "

"I'm sure they'll make you blush. "

"If I make you hear my heartbeats. "

"I'm sure they'll

leave you flushed. "

"But I cannot hide

my feelings true. "

"For I must, I must

destroy myself in you. "

"If the moon was to recommend me. "

"This is what he'd say to you. "

"I want to drop

the veil of decency. "

"I want to cross

the line with you. "

"I insist on destroying myself. "

"On destroying myself in you. "

Stand straight. Looking at

you I'm getting a backache.

And you Mr. Cartoon Network..

.. we have to leave for the

rehearsal at exactly 9 AM tomorrow.

So then leave.

It's me. Rehan.

I know. Only you can be so impudent.

I want to be even more impudent.

I want you to run away with me.

I want to show you Delhi.

Without your bodyguards..

.. don't say no,

not without thinking atleast

You'll anyway be

thinking about me so..

God forbid, the crows are cawing.

I'll wait for you after the

rehearsal tomorrow. With these crows.

"Marvelous. "

You have had more girls in your life

than there is mileage on my bus.

Why do you want this blind girl?

What can I do Balwante,

everyone wants the moon.

There's just one headlight in

the sky, that shows us the way.

Now you want that too?

They say in loe you

always loose sleep.

I wish someone would love me,

I bloody sleep and sleep and sleep. "

Let's go.

Zooni! You must be tired,

go to sleep.

I feel awake after so many years.

I can't sleep now.

I can't sleep now.

I want to be even more impudent,

I want you to run away with me.

Why aren't you concentrating?

Can I use your phone?

Pick up, mama!

This is one decision you'll

hae to take on your own Zooni.

Oh Lord, how silly of me.

Of course there's no point in your

going sightseeing when you can't see.

No maam.

- Whats the point..

.. when you cant see the sights.

Okay. You can go back to the

hostel after the rehearsal.

Fine! At least you'll be

away from that Rehan guide.

Brother, tell me something.

You stand here all day.

Don't you wish you were

inside on the President's chair?

Why should I think that?

In the police department

we regularly get promoted.

But once you're President, there's

no scope of promotion at all!

You're a very jolly man!

All thanks to my grandfather.

Grandfather? - My grandfather

worked for the British.

All day long he

would hear them say..

.. 'Jolly Good' this and

'Jolly Good' that.

When I was born he

was losing his memory.

All he remembered was 'Jolly Good'.

So that's what he

named me. Jolly Good.

Yes, yes have a laugh at me.

Even the officers

that pass by here say..

.. "Jolly Good..

Singh" laugh and move on.

I think that's great.

Thanks to you,

the country is run in good spirits!

Thats Jolly Good Singh.

Rehan..

I felt God himself had blessed me.

When all she did was to address me.

Jolly Good

Rickshaw!

Hello.

Look, I sent Rana with

Balwaan and the bus.

No, I'm not coming today.

So what if I didn't tell you earlier.

I'm telling you now.

Let's go.

- You left work without permission?

So?

My father says that if a person

can't be loyal to their work..

.. they can't be trusted

for anything.

Very good.

I've left work for you and you're

giving me a speech on loyalty?

My mother says there is

nothing bigger than loyalty.

If you're done with your mother

and father's sermons can we go?

Why am I saying all this to you?

Why are you saying all this to me?

So that I go back to work?

Yes.

Think about it, if I go

today I won't come back tomorrow.

I'll go back to the guest house,

you'll go back to work.

Tomorrow you'll take the day

off and then we'll go, ok?

Not okay.

You've heard what your

parents have said. Now hear me.

If I go today I will

not come back tomorrow.

You'll come. Let's go.

I don't live the life of

the selfless..

.. nor do I grab another's wine.

If she has love let

her come and declare it..

.. to ask her,

to follow her, I decline. "

God be with you.

"Marvelous. "

Greetings Ms. Zooni.

Greetings Mr. Jolly

I am wishing you and

you are wishing me.

Jolly good. Jolly good.

You know what happened yesterday?

Yesterday I said good

morning to 20 people..

.. and they all said good

evening to me instead.

How can so many people be wrong?

It was my watch that was wrong.

It stopped in the morning..

.. so I said 'good

morning' to people all day long!

I can't see Rehan today.

I can't see him either.

I think he's like me.

Completely clean at heart..

.. and completely muddled

in the head.

I couldn't quench my thirst with

water so I set off for the bar.

I gave up

complaining to God about you..

.. for He is most

smitten by you, by far. "

Jolly good. Jolly good.

"Marvelous. "

I'm with you now.

So, how are you going to

show Delhi to a blind girl?

Can you see me?

No.

What's my voice like?

Like the thunder before the storm.

What do I smell like?

Like the earth after

the first rain.

What do I feel like?

Like a prince in
