Noor, my dear, what a talented artist

you are turning out to be!

Noor, what the hell is wrong with you!

You are completely out of your...

Firdaus!

Excuse me...

No, sir... don't.

Please, sir, stand back.

If you ask for milk,

we will give you pudding!

But if you ask for Kashmir,

we will give you a thrashing!

If you ask for milk,

we will give you pudding!

But if you ask for Kashmir,

we will give you a thrashing!

Such a bright chap... gone!

You can't get drunk

and create a ruckus

at this kind of a

high profile event!

Take him away!

Lock him up for the night.

A thrashing will bring him

to his senses.

You should have kept him in check.

Was it necessary to

bring it down to this?

Whatever happened in the past,

I have no interest in digging into it.

But your future is

mine and mine alone.

Isn't it?

Isn't it?

Nizami!

You got bail.

Take him with you too.

He's been sitting here

for two vvhole days.

Mad family!

Let's go home, Jun-jiju.

I did what I had to.

Here, drink this.

Cool down.

I've ruined everything.

I had lost my mind.

I only thought about myself

and this great love of mine!

Forgive me, Jun-jiju!

Don't cry.

Everything will work out.

This was my mother's

prized possession.

I've cared for it like a baby.

You need to forget about

what happened in Delhi, Firdaus.

That story is now over.

Now you are going to become

someone e

se's possession.

What will I do being

someone e

se's possession?

Hang around their neck my entire life?

Don't be crazy, Firdaus.

You don't know what you are saying.

I know, I should do what is right.

I know... I know it all.

I have been hearing all of this

since I was a child.

But my heart feels otherwise.

Something is not right.

Tell me mother...

what should I do?

Don't worry my doll.

I was your age once.

I had also got swept up

in all these emotions.

What did I get in return?

Do you want to live my life, Firdaus?

It's not necessary that

what happened with you

will happen to me.

Yes, of course...

It's not necessary at all.

Anyway what wrong

has ever happened with you?

You are a fortunate one.

Hovv else would an orphan ever

become the pride of this palace?

ls it necessary to remind me

again and again, mother?

Yes, it is, Firdaus.

I had thought that God had sent

you to me for a special purpose.

I protected you from everyone.

You were special.

You are still special, my doll.

You've not been made to

waste away in love.

This palace now needs a man,

a name, a title.

And now you are going to bring

back that lost splendor.

We can't be out on the streets again.

Neither you, nor I.

Please get dressed soon.

Bilal will be here any moment.

Congratulations!

Be blessed!

Praise the Lord,

stay happy you both.

Aunt Nargis, drop the spoons

and dig into it with your hands!

You won't become fat.

Rascal!

Kaleem, please feed

him some meatballs.

So many years have gone by

you still haven't been

able to forget her.

Dear, the heart moves

in mysterious ways.

He who hasn't felt that yearning,

has not lived at all.

It's truly a blessing to be in love!

As time passes,

it only gets stronger.

Pure, beautiful, soulful.

I may be cursed like that.

That the heart yearns for

what once was.

Those sweet fragrant days of my past.

London's my last chance.

Will you come along?

I don't have the strength

to do this alone.

Arif?

Should I do push ups for you?

Give me 5O right now.

Let me show you the gallery

and the space for your exhibition.

And here is the outdoor space

for your exhibition.

I hope it's inspiring enough!

So 3O meters... we can't go wrong

With that. Alright?

Just measure it

and come back and tell me.

Sure.

Congratulations...

we made it to the London Time Out.

This is centre stage!

London, isn't it?

There is something very interesting

about the way he thinks.

The way he articulates his expression.

What could be macabre for one

could be freedom for someone else.

Noor, my child...

you disappeared again!

Now I have to meet you in

this foreign city.

When Jagirdar told me,

I couldn't keep myself from coming.

Firdaus sent these flowers

for your big day.

Oh my God!

You were always a good artisan

but now you have truly

bloomed into an artist!

There is depth in your work now.

Good show, Noor!

Somebody smashed your heart big time!

You have poured out everything,

you must be all empty now.

You must be feeling naked.

Noor. .. over here!

Begum!

Begum...

Firdaus didn't come?

Firdaus! Firdaus!

I came...

doesn't that mean anything?

Go inside, Noor.

This is the biggest day of your life.

Forget everything else.

Begum!

Noor Nizami. .. Artist.

Don't vvorry.

Jagirdar has sent me.

Come, I'll drop you home.

No. I want to be alone.

We are all alone.

Come. Have a drink with me.

Come on, sir.

Will treat you to

London's best Kashmiri tea.

Come.

Noor Nizami.

That runt of a boy who used to

ride a boat on the Dal Lake.

Look at him today.

The rising star of the art world!

Have we met before?

I swear to God.

I will tear you apart.

Ivluazzam!

Nowadays, I am known by the

name of Mirza Baig.

What do you want from me?

Jagirdar? - Yes.

I had sent Jagirdar to you.

Your arts scholarship is

standing in front of you.

IIC Delhi...

The Gallery of Modern Art

The exhibition at the Aman

The Freedom Series

All your show-stoppers!

I picked up all of them.

I doubled your price overnight.

Lies!

After what happened in Delhi,

I had great difficulty convincing

the London organizers.

Vvhy?

I had two sons your age.

My jihad ate them up.

Neither did I get freedom, nor death.

I came here under a different name.

Worked night and day.

And built all this from scratch.

But away from my country

I couldn't forget that boy

who risked it all

to bring me a warm coat.

The thought of that coat

kept me vvarm many a night.

Today when everyone in the gallery

were singing your praises

I had tears in my eyes!

Noor, my boy. We did it!

We? This is all about you.

Did anyone ever ask me what I wanted?

Don't be upset, Noor!

At least not today.

Today?

Today you've reduced me to nothing!

Today, I don't even know who I am.

Am I even worth anything?

Why did you do all this?

Who told you to do all this?

You can't just play God as you please.

Screw your charity!

I don't want it... don't want it!

No matter hovv hard you run

your past does not forget you.

It follows you like your shadow.

You are now going to be

part of this legacy.

Your new life starts from today.

God bless you!

For better or for worse

I will always be that boy from the Dal.

Little Noora!

To be deserving of Firdaus

you have to become someone.

Presenting... man of the hour

Noor Nizami!

My whole life was a lie... a conspiracy.

Why did you lie to me?

Why did you say that if

I want to win over Firdaus

I need to become someone?

Why did you make me feel

that you are making me

worthy of her?

You thought whatever you had to.
