You and I have a bond

from yore

That iS Why you make

my heart Soar

Know it or not

Admit it or not

It's our group's special song.

Really? Is that why you've been

croaking from Cuffe Parade?

What lies! We started at Churchgate.

That's where bums like you all sing.

Know it or not

- Jiggy, my piggy!

- Yes, Shaleen, my...darleen?

- When's your flight taking off?

- Meaning?

- When are you telling Mala?

- What?

Come to me, I am your love

She agreed to a date

after I swore it was just friendship.

The 'L' word will get me

a kick in the butt.

Jignesh, you're a stud!

You've brought an air hostess

to the airport on a date?

Why don't we go inside?

It's air-conditioned.

- Entry is forbidden.

- Forbidden? Why?

A bomb threat, I think.

So we have to roast here?

"Come along, Mala.

We're a really fun group."

"It'll be so much fun!"

Tell me, Jiggy, why am I at the airport

on my day off?

Our special friends are coming...

- So bring them flowers! Sweets!

- We did.

Why bring me?

I don't even know them and I'm here

receiving them like an idiot.

When people meet after ages,

every meeting has a story.

I know...stories!

I hate stories.

- Especially ones which end at airports.

- Why?

It's so easy!

Sneaking in and stopping a plane!

Try it! You'll be gunned down

like a terrorist.

Not very romantic, are you?

Miserable couples everywhere.

Before marriage, fights and suspicion.

And after marriage, "We're bored."

Nope! Not when you find

the right person.

Ah! "Made-for-each-other" crap.

Happens in Mills and Boons,

not in real life.

It happens! Really!

Oh. Please tell me.

I'm dying to know. Pretty please?

For that you'll have to hear a story,

and you don't like stories.

What kind? A love story?

With a hero, heroine, villains?

Villains...not too many.

But there are fights,

songs, misunderstandings?

- Oh, full on!

- And a climax at the airport?

Give it a go!

The flight's delayed anyway.

I better not get bored, OK?

- Shoot!

- So, Mala, there's a boy and a girl...

This story begins...

...with a dream.

A man brandishing a sword,

like in a costume drama,

and riding a horse.

- Is this your dream?

- No.

- Then how do you know it?

- Jai often has such dreams.

- And Jai is...?

- The guy who's dreaming. Now listen!

I'll be right there.

- But your exams?

- It's Aditi.

She needs me.

I'm sorry. We tried our best.

But we couldn't save her.

I'd like to say a few words.

Radha is no longer with us.

I still remember

the first time we met her.

Shining black eyes,

such an innocent face

on such a prankster.

She was with us a while.

She touched our lives.

Aditi...we'll never forget Radha.

Come.

Let's pray that Radha finds

happiness wherever she goes.

That she remembers us...

...and learns to catch mice.

Radha was a cat?

- A memorial service for a cat?

- Oh, she had the last rites, too.

- Are you all nuts?

- Not us. Aditi.

She found Radha in college

and loved her like her own daughter.

Everything was extreme for Aditi.

Love, hatred, attachment...

Nothing was measured.

But how could you take this seriously?

Actually, we found it silly, too.

But not Jai.

All Jai cared about...

...was Aditi's grief.

He just wanted to make her smile.

Sometimes, Aditi,

you meet someone along the way

And it breaks your heart,

when they go away

Eyes demand tears,

it's hard to disobey

And believe

everything's gonna be OK!

Sometimes you feel

so down and blue

Every day is like a bitter brew

It's hard to smile,

feel happy or gay

And believe

everything's gonna be OK!

Think of how much we love you

When you cry, we cry with you

I Can't hold a note,

but I sing for you

Aditi, sometimes

the world is a dark place

But the blackest night cracks

with the dawn's rays

Sometimes you find a friend

along the way

Feels unreal, like a dream,

when they go away

Go on, Aditi, laugh a bit

Just a bit?

How about a smile? Go on...

...give us a little smile

Your happiness

spreads joy all around

The sun emerges

and warms the ground

Can you hear

what the wind has to say?

"Aditi, friends, though parted,

meet again

"Know it or not,

flowers blossom again"

Sometimes, Aditi,

you meet someone along the way

And it breaks your heart,

when they go away

Go on, Aditi, laugh a bit

Just a bit?

How about a smile? Go on...

Go on, Aditi, laugh a bit

Just a bit?

How about a smile? Go on...

- You had a crush on Aditi?

- Smitten! And Bombs had a thing for Jai.

But Jai and Aditi were just

in their own world.

You say the glass is half empty

I say it's half full

I say it's a lot

You say it's a little bit

If I say it's day

You say it isn't night

Aren't they the same?

Just said differently

But at the end of the day

It's only you who understands me

Whether you know it or not

Whether you show it or not

I'm here!

It's Aunty Pammi.

Yes, Pammi?

Again?

No! That's useless.

Enough police complaints.

Write to the Commissioner if you wish.

I'm going to the newspapers.

He's not going to change

until he's suspended.

- Your old friend Inspector Waghmare?

- Who else?

Brutally thrashed a teenager in lock-up.

I mean, that man...

His own baton should be...

Breath control.

Inhale deeply, exhale slowly.

- You want breakfast?

- Your turn?

Yours. But I'm in the mood.

- I had that dream again.

- What dream?

The same one.

Some guy with a sword, riding a horse...

You forgot the pepper.

I've felt this before.

I think it's dad.

Your dad? My husband?

Riding a horse? With a sword?

- How could you even think this?

- I just...

You know how much he hated violence.

Forget fighting, he couldn't bear

to see anyone else fight.

And so he died.

He went to stop a quarrel and...

...and never returned.

It's just a dream.

I can't do much about that.

The tragedy, Jai, is that

you can even dream it.

And so Jai Singh Rathore, aka Rats,

was the most non-violent person

in the world.

Gandhiji would weep with joy

if he knew Jai.

And get spasms of acidity

if he knew Aditi.

You're a coward!

Your mom! Your dad!

Your whole family are cowards,

craphead!

Jai, move! I'll fix him!

I'll show you who's the coward,

you dog!

Vivek, are you mad,

calling her a coward?

- Not her, shithead! You!

- Me?

Then, what's the problem, Meow?

Vivek, carry on.

Better bell your cat

or you'll find her under my car.

That's where your mother found you!

Jerk!

Jai, if she doesn't shut up,

I'm gonna thrash your ass!

You think Jai's scared of you?

- Go on, Jai, break his face!

- Who, me?

Let me go, Nilesh,

or I'll break your glasses!

Aditi, what are you doing?

He will kill Jai.

I didn't want to fight.

But you leave me no choice.

I won't leave a thing, sonny.

Just your remains.

Let's do it. Lesson time!

Really? You...

- What?

- Your dad's the college trustee.

- So?

- I'll be expelled if I beat you up.

I'll do the beating up, buddy.

And you'll get away scot-free!

Dude, you don't know my father.

I'll get screwed more than you.
