Jahan Ara Page #8

- Dear Jahan.

- Yes, father?

Now happily bide me goodbye.

Your mother is calling me.

Your mother is calling me.

Physician!

Physician!

Physician!

Mumtaz, please come.

l need your support.

Father, nobody listens to me.

Nobody called the physician.

Aurangzeb's cruel soldiers

don't open the door.

God will never forgive him.

Oh God!

l forgive Aurangzeb.

l forgive...

Father!

Father!

Sister, l can't express the shock

which l felt ...

after hearing about father's death.

May God give you courage.

Come with me to Delhi and spend

the rest of your life ...

with the same splendor how

you did in father's times.

You enjoy the splendor.

l won't come.

Once again l request you

to live this confinement.

l've made arrangements for

you to stay in a special palace.

l took this prison to be

a holy place ...

where l dedicated seven years

of my life to father.

This prison is a place

of worship for me.

l will never go from here.

No one can avert destiny.

Have courage.

l won't get it so easily.

l have seen my helpless father

shedding tears and suffering ...

in this prison.

Answer me, Aurangzeb.

How much time of your life can you

spend helplessly in this prison...

like father did?

l want an answer.

How much time of your life

can you spend here?

The child who treats his parents

like you did,...

never gets peace in life.

Even God does not forgive him.

l have no answer, except silence.

Now you forgive me instead of father.

lgnoring your misconduct,

father forgave you ...

before breathing his last.

But l will never forgive you.

You won't be able to reign with

peace even for a day ...

on this snatched throne.

There will be no throne

in this world,....

then there will be no king,

and no Emperor.

Nobody will be like you.

- Your Majesty?

- Sister refused to come with me.

Call Karunavati from Jaipur

as soon as possible.

Now only she can take sister

from her.

Princess!

What are you looking in the dark?

Yes, Karuna.

l miss Agra a lot.

lt is your affection

that brought me here.

Or else l would never come

to Delhi from Agra.

lf you are bored in Delhi,...

then let's go to Agra for few days.

Karuna, do you want me

to bow before Aurangzeb?

That l should seek his permission

to go to Agra?

Karuna, l will die,...

But l will never ask

for Aurangzeb's mercy.

You tell me. lt's been a long

time since l came to Delhi.

But Aurangzeb never came

to greet me.

He may be an Emperor to the world.

But he is my brother.

l am his elder sister.

lf l can be angry, l can also

embrace him with love.

But Princess, he come daily.

What?

Aurangzeb comes daily?

Yes.

He salutes the threshold,

inquires about your well being.

And goes away.

Then why didn't he come to me?

He doesn't want to hurt you by

coming here against your wish.

Karuna, tomorrow when he comes,

bring him to me.

Say that l've called for him.

l'll embrace him and forgive him.

Very good.

Now come and take rest.

Come.

Karuna, now you go.

l'll go to bed.

Bless you.

''To wipe of the tears in your eyes''

''Not so fortunate l am''

''To wipe of the tears in your eyes''

''Not so fortunate l am''

''To engross myself in your sorrow...''

- What is the matter?

- You know whose voice this is?

- No.

- lt's Mirza's.

- Mirza?

- Yes, Karuna.

He is more unfortunate than me.

His voice can reach me,

but he can't hear mine.

As long as l was with father,...

he used to sing the same

outside the fortress day and night.

And now he has come here too.

He does not know what l go through

when l hear his voice.

Go, Karuna. Request him on my behalf

to not come here again.

l feel restless.

Go, Karuna.

Karuna, thank God that l met you.

l see a ray of hope.

Please take me to the princess.

Mr.Mirza, l've come to end

your hope.

Please don't come here.

The princess feels very restless

when she hears your voice.

Even l am suffering like the fish

which is throw out on the shore.

Karuna, for God's sake, please

help me meet princess just once.

l want to say something to her.

Now you can't meet her.

Please go away for God's sake.

How can l?

l was searching for you

since a long time.

That when l meet you,

l will remind you your promise.

A sister's promise which she had

made to her unfortunate brother.

Promise?

For God's sake, please don't

remind me of my promise.

l beg of you.

A Rajput's daughter

shouldn't plead like that.

Tell me clearly that the norms

of Rajputs have changed.

And those who laid their life for

a promise, don't value it anymore.

Good bye.

Wait.

The Rajputs value their promise.

l'll help you meet the princess

right now.

But you promise me

that you will never come here again.

Never. l swear on the princess.

You wait here, l'll be right back.

Karun , did you explain to him?

He will never come again, right?

Yes, He has sworn upon you

that he will never come hereafter.

May God gave him courage.

But princess, l am in a dilemma

right now.

What's the matter, Karuna?

Tell me.

Perhaps l might be able to help you.

l had given a promise to Mr.Mirza

several days ago.

And he reminded me of it today.

Karuna, you are a Rajput's daughter.

lt is your duty to keep the promise.

Fulfill it.

But my promise can't be fulfilled

without your help.

Then tell me. l will sacrifice

my life to fulfill your promise.

You will have to meet Mr.Mirza once.

Karuna, please take your words back.

l had promised my mother.

Even l have promised Mr.Mirza.

l have sworn upon the Holy Quran

to never meet again.

But even my promise is like

swearing upon the Holy Gita.

Karuna, take my life from me,

but not my integrity.

lf l couldn't fulfill my promise,

l have only one option.

To kill myself.

Princess, l swear on

the Holy Gita...

l will sacrifice my promise

for your integrity...

by giving up my life.

- Fulfill your promise.

- Pardon?

l order you.

Fulfill your promise.

Oh Lord, l could protect the honor

of a sister's promise.

So l did.

Now the honor of my word is

in your hands.

Oh Lord, please help me.

Oh Lord, help me.

Princess!

Oh Lord, You are the protector

of honor.

Please have mercy on me.

Princess!

O Lord, please have mercy on me.

Don't make me a spectacle.

Princess.

O Lord, l've sworn on the Holy book.

Now its honor is in your hands.

O Lord, help me.

Please help me, O Lord.

Please help me, O Lord.

Princess.

Please accept my salutation.

l am so fortunate.

Time has changed,

the world has changed.

But those who treasure memories

haven't changed.

Princess, remember that night...

when l entered the Emperor's

daughter's chamber ...

in search of my Jahan Ara.

You know what you had said?

You had said...

''Mr.Mirza, l worshiped you.

l made an image of you.''

''And you shattered it.''

Princess, for God's sake,

please take this accusation back.

l did shatter that image.

Open your eyes and see.

Like you, even l've achieved life

by drowning in the ocean of love.

God is a witness.
