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.

And just like this

you will see Delhi.

Watch out! This is the

Gateway of Blood.

The emperor

Aurangzeb had his brother..

.. Dara Shikoh beheaded,

and hung his head up here. - there.

Exactly where you are standing.

And the British

goernment killed two sons and..

Rehan! -.. a grandson of Bahadur

Shah Zafar, right there, behind you.

Rehan!

Please. That's enough.

Let's leave from here.

This is the bloody history of Delhi.

The Mughals, the British, a lot

of bloodshed had happened here

That's why, till today, tears

of blood flow from these walls.

Scared? What did you think?

I wouldn't get back

at you for yesterday?

And what did you think,

I'd get scared so easily?

When I have never seen any colors

how can the color of blood scare me?

Now you're scared.

"O Lord. "

I'm going. I'm going to Delhi,

to get her back.

It's been 4 days. That's enough

to understand life. - Zulfi.

What'll be happening to

her without us? Just think?

She's brought up on home food,

she must be starving.

The Delhi crowds, who

will look out for her?

I'm not there.

"Marvelous. "

I can't take her agony

any more, I'm going.

Are you going for her

sake or for your own?

Lets go.

You were right, Rehan.

You did show me Delhi.

"Those people fall in love.. "

Here is your rolled bread.

They say, the feelings

one gets for the country..

.. in front of the

Eternal Soldier Flame..

.. one gets for love in

front of the Taj Mahal.

Feelings, love,

that's all just talk.

When it comes down to basics

then needs are eerything.

Needs of the stomach,

needs of the body

So you believe needs

are everything..

.. and feelings are nothing?

- Yes.

So all this time

you're spending with me..

.. is this also to fulfil some need?

You shouldn't tease a man

like me. My needs are great.

Even one chicken is not enough.

Even one girl is not enough.

So, Mr. Rehan, how

are things with you?

And how are you Zeenat?

Forgotten how I am?

Come and meet me, I'll remind you.

It's my fault actually.

He's been busy with me.

That's what makes

Rehan guide so special.

So, when do you plan on

being busy with me again?

I can't explain the ways

of this market to you,

He who is sold, can't

ever be a buyer anew. "

You'll never improve. Ever.

Good evening.

You seem to know her very well.

That's me.

I told you I only believe in needs..

.. not in feelings or love.

And I only believe in love.

Meeting that guide on the sly.

Forget Helen, I can't

beliee you lied to me!

This is just why I lied to you.

You're less of a

friend and more of a Hitler.

Hitler? I was just protecting you.

Not me. You were

protecting my blindness.

Zooni, how do I explain it to you?

He just isn't right for you.

Perhaps, but when I'm with him..

.. I feel happy, feel alie.

And this feeling is special.

Very special.

But I don't like

that Guide. Not one bit.

And I don't care what you say.

I'll never let you

go with him. Never.

Turn off your light.

Good night, Fatty.

Hello, dear. good luck.

- Thank you, Mr. Jolly.

Jolly Singh! Could you please allow

my good luck to come in? Please?

Don't insist. This tough

Sikh has a soft heart.

I'm sorry but rules are rules

and rules are never Jolly Good.

It's ok. I know you're

only doing your duty.

But still,

I will be singing for him.

Thats Jolly Good.

Thats Jolly bad, I say.

Check her properly.

People say that after so

many years of Independence..

.. our Republic Day

has lost all meaning.

That it's just another holiday.

But it's not just a holiday for me.

This day marks the

birth of my country.

They say that the state

of our country is like..

.. that of our old monuments.

What's beautiful

was only in the past.

I am blind so I don't see

the faults in my country..

.. but why can't those who see,

see the beauty here?

What Emperor Shah Jahan had

said of my home state of Kashmir..

.. we believe that's

true for all of India.

If there is a heaven on earth..

.. it is here, it is here,

it is here.

"The earth here

changes color at every step. "

"The language here has

all the colors best. "

"The earth here

changes color at every step. "

"The language here has

all the colors best. "

"The climes wear green

on their head. "

"The sky lays a blue

sheet over it's bed. "

"Golden river, Green ocean,

Every part so dressed. "

"My colorful, colorful country,

my country full of color. "

"Motherland, I bow to you. "

"The sun with its

rose-tinted neck plays around. "

"The yellow scarf of

flowers covers the shy ground. "

"Color in the veil,

color on the mound..

.. bright, bright color all around. "

"My colorful, colorful country,

my country full of color. "

"Bright red faces all around,

smiling and glowing in fervour. "

"Colorful laughter,

colorful happiness..

.. relationships full of color. "

"Color in promises, color in

memories, color, color, more color. "

"My colorful, colorful country,

my country full of color. "

"The color of love here runs so deep,

once its on it's there for keeps. "

"The color of true love so still

simply glistens does not spill. "

"Color in charm, color in manner,

all colors full of flavor. "

"My colorful, colorful country,

my country full of color. "

"The earth here

changes color at every step. "

"The language here has

all the colors best. "

"The climes wear

green on their head. "

"The sky lays a blue

sheet over it's bed. "

"Golden river, Green ocean,

Every part so dressed. "

"My colorful, colorful country,

my country full of color. "

Go Zooni, he's

waiting outside for you.

Thanks, Ruby.

- Hes so sweet.

He said I am the

cutest of all the girls.

After you of course, Zooni. Go.

Stop. You're not going anywhere.

Fatty.

Certainly not like this.

With your hair all over the place.

You haven't even worn

your stole properly.

I can't let you go like this.

You're really..

Ok, Ok, that's enough of that.

Go now.

So sweet, Fatty.

- Bobo.

Let's go.

The fire is in the sun, but it's

the earth that does the burning.

The eyes fall in love..

.. but it's the heart

that does the suffering. "

You're looking exceptionally

beautiful this evening.

Really?

You're looking exactly

the same to me.

You have brought me here? You?

I thought you don't believe in God.

Will you just keep quiet for a bit?

Shut your eyes now.

Rehan, my eyes are always shut.

Rest your eyelids

They say this blessed

water does miracles.

I hope that's true.

No one has ever asked

for such a blessing for me.

I'm not asking for you,

I'm asking for myself.

Perhaps if your eyes are open

you'll keep your mouth shut!

It's so loud!

This is the real Delhi.

The quiet museums, Red Fort,

that's not the real Delhi.

This is the sound of Delhi.

the essence of Delhi

I wish I was deaf as well..

Just a minute. Wait here.

Hello.

- Rehan..

Yes, it's me.

Rehan.

Yes, yes, I got it alright.

Rehan, you're watching me,

aren't you?

Rehan..

Zooni!

What's this madness?
