on our desires...?

In what fires burns the dew?

Akash...

Akash...

Will you forget me

like this someday?

He's dead

The doctors say she's out of danger,

Daya!

Daya! Don't hit him!

Let him go! Leave him alone!

Let go... it's not his mistake!

He hasn't made any mistake!

Daya, let him go!

Let go of my hand! Leave

me alone, Daya!

Let me go, Daya! Please

let me go, Daya,

Let me go, Daya!

Daya, leave my hand!

Leave my hand, I say!

Akash...

Talk to me! Why aren't

you talking to me?

What right did you have to hit him?

Jealous? Jealous to see me

with another man today...?

Where were you when I

gave up everything...,

and wanted to settle down with you?

You locked me up in that house

and went away then!

And when I want to open the

window for some fresh air...,

you find that bad? Why

must I wait for you?

What have you given me except

fear and terror, Daya?

I thought Bittu's death

would change you,

But you can never change,

Daya! Never!

You were a gangster and you

are still a gangster!

I can't spend a lifetime

with a gangster!

I can't spend the rest of

my life with a gang...,

which is the stained with

the blood innocents!

What are you going to get out

of killing Akash, Daya?

Talk to me! I'm the one

you must talk to!

You want to know whether I

love him? Yes, I love him!

He's the only one who can

fulfill all my dreams!

He's the one who took care

of me after you went away!

He's the one who brought

a smile to my lips!

He's the one I truly love! Only

he can fulfill my dreams!

If...,

you really...,

are in love with Akash...,

I will not stop you,

I've given you a lot of sorrow,

But if you have ever loved me...,

even a wee bit...,

give me one chance, please,

I'm a changed man,

Today, this moment... I'm willing

to give up everything,

But if you leave me...,

I'm going to die,

I won't be able to live, Simran,

I... I won't be able

to live, Simran!

I won't be able to live

anymore! I won't!

Usman...?

Daya, go away!

Listen to me, Daya! Go away!

Go away, Daya! Listen to me!

Run, Daya!

Get him. Quick!

C'mon! Move it!

Sh*t! ,

Moist memories, moist nights,

moist eyes...

what makes my eyes moist?

Dreams in my eyes...

make me laugh one moment,

make me cry the other...

what vacuum is this...?

Nobody knows...

what life I lead...

my story, incomplete

what life I lead...

my story, incomplete

Sleepy, awake...

your eyes, teary...

for my sake

My Maker, angry. Everything,

lost...

heartbroken, without you...

how shall I accept life?

Nobody knows...

what life I lead...

my story, incomplete

what life I lead...

my story, incomplete

Moist memories, moist nights,

moist eyes...

what makes my eyes moist?

Nobody knows...

what life I lead...

my story, incomplete

Nobody knows, nobody

has a clue...

of the incomplete

story my life is

Nobody knows...

what life I lead...

my story, unfinished

My story... incomplete

Simran...,

it's said one must begin

where one strayed off...

if you wish to tread the right

path all over again,

I too wish to go back to India.

To my village. With you,

You know where my village is?

It's near Kashmir,

When it snowed in winter, all

roads used to be blocked,

My mother was employed

to clear the snow,

Two rupees,

To earn two rupees,

she used to pray...,

that it may snow again, so

she could have employment,

There was so much of peace

in those two rupees,

After several years today,

I could sleep in peace...

after earning an honest living,

And it's all thanks to you,

If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't

even have known...

what sleep for the honest means,

I wish to live like this

all my life, Simran,

With you,

But before starting again

on the path of honesty...

I'll have one last bad thing to do,

I'll have to get hold of fake

passports for you and me,

I'm going to Seoul,

One last time. After that...,

you can say the bad man

in me is dead for good,

Hello... hello?

Simran...?

Akash...

Thank God, Simran! I looked so

much for you... where are you?

I want to meet you just once, Simran

I promise, I'll never try

to meet you ever again

Simran, please don't do this to me

Ties aren't snapped like this,

Simran... - Akash, I'm pregnant

O Merciful Lord...

everybody would lay down

his life for You

O Savior...

my life's for You

My life, I could give

away for my love...

I'd wipe myself out for my love

I'd finish my identity for my love

O Merciful Lord...

everybody would lay down

his life for You

O Savior...

my life's for You

I thought I hated you

I used to dream that you'd

walk before me...

and that I'd shoot you

And now that you stand in

front of me, I hate myself

What goddamned business are we into?

We got to shoot our

kids ourselves...

and then carry their biers

on our own shoulders

Allah!

Looks like that's the punishment

I will get for my misdeeds

What has happened is in the past

I will never stand in your way again

I'm taking Simran and returning

to India for good

Please let me go

How I wish I could...

but it can't be helped, my son

If I don't kill you and set an

example, people will call me impotent

Every boy in my gang

will turn a Romeo...

and will rebel for the sake

of some whore or the other

I have to pull a full-stop

to it, right?

Don't worry, son

I'll kill you and set a good example

After you're dead, I'll

keep your whore alive...

I'll hold on her display on

the terrace, stark naked...

so that people can see...

what consequences befall those that

come between father and son

You get that, son? My boys will

toy with her body every day...

so that she can realise what...

I've given up...

Without You, there isn't a moment

Without You, there is no tomorrow

If it wasn't for You, man

would be stone-hearted

He would know no feeling

For my love, my sweetheart...

I'd die, finish myself

I swear, I'd wipe out my identity

O Merciful Lord...

everybody would lay

down his life for You

O Savior...

my life's for You

Simran, I don't want

to lose this baby

I want to marry you, Simran

I want to take you and my baby home

That's what you too want, isn't

it? Isn't that what you want?

I'll give you so much of love,

you'll never crave love again

All I'm afraid of is...

will Daya be able to forget you?

Not even an ordinary man can

accept defeat in love...

...and Daya's a gangster

I don't want a gangster's shadow

to be cast on our child

The family and surroundings

I'm taking you to...

is a place where only

decent folks live

My parents haven't even

sworn at anyone

If they get to know that

you and a gangster were...

Simran, you will have to shut

the doors on the past forever

You'll have to help me

If you want us and our

child to be happy...

you'll have to turn Daya over

to the police, Simran

Hear me out...

- No, Akash...

I'm asking you to save him,

not to trap him

Out in the open, he might fall

a victim to the bullets

Behind the bars, he has a fair

chance of getting justice
