'Ya.Ya.'

- Lets leave?

- Yes

- Bye - See you

Let's go Ma'am

- Ya

(thunder rumbles)

Look how my heart enfolds

All the love it holds

Look how the sky pours

All my love at once

My darling

My dearest

What is it

your eyes recite?

Can there be rains

Without dark clouds here!

Can there be wounds

Time wouldn't heal!

My darling

My dearest

What is it

your eyes conceal?

The scent of your love

Will fill me up, I hoped

Those times have gone by now

My eternal love

Fills me up like fire

Wont this distance

change its course?

The river of our love

Has dried up now

Only a mirage remains

Our dreams have slipped through

Like water in a toddler's hand

Sorrow has taken over!

A lute doesn't sing a song

That didn't escape its strings

Will it be ever be heard, my love?

Like a fresh sprout

Scorched by the summer

My love agonises here

This merciless life

Decided our destination

Here we are

Enduring the pain

There was no end

I still don't comprehend

The story of this love!

Oh my darling

Oh my dearest

What is it

your eyes recite!

The first time

I saw your face...

is still clear in my memory

I was so scared

The way you were

looking at me!

I know

You covered your knees

when I saw you

Threw a dupatta over yourself

You were wearing

a rose colour shirt and...

...a brown colour skirt

It hasn't left my eyes still

Wow!

How well you remember!

Do you like me so much?

Beyond words

Until now

I never thought...

...this would happen

But, this life

is so strange

It realises some dreams

And ruins some realities

Sorry!

Listen, how are you

so young still?

Very funny!

I am being serious

Look at me

Old and grayed!

But you?

Thanks

My daughters friends

say this too

Hey, I was just joking

You took that seriously

Dont you feel that

you missed me?

I feel that a lot

That we will

meet again like this...

...never occurred to me

Swarna trusts me so much

I should make sure that

she isn't disheartened, even mildly

Because...

...I am her universe

Just me

Even now...

...she would know

that I am meeting you

But she didn't say a word!

Your life...

...will not be affected

even a bit by me

Don't ever fear that

I know

What is this, Karikaala!

I am not your Zareena

I have changed

Completely

To be that person

in your memories...

...is all I want

I...I...feel

a bit weird

Like, Swarna...

...is right...

next to you

Lets go Karikaala

Please...

...dont call me that

Ok!

I will leave now

My darling

My Dearest

What is it...

...your eyes recite?

Havent you slept yet?

Sleeping with my eyes open

Cant you see?

Hey!

I just went to have

a chat with her

Did you?

My eyes were filled with you

I couldnt even look at her

Oh! What flattery!

Look! I am going

to my native place

Why?

You think only

you had lovers?

I was in Grade 8

at a Govt. school

Walked all the way

Drum player Perumal

Was behind me like a madman

I liked him as well

But you

brought me here

Listen, book a ticket

I will go

have a chat with him

Just like you

Rules should be the same, right?

Hey!! Swarna...

Swarna...!

She is not the Zareena

I had known

She seems like another person

She feels that

I have changed too

Really?

Why would I lie?

Then say that you love me

Hey!

You wont say, is it?

Hey... No...No

I love you my dear

I love you my darling

I feel like crying

But I wont

Why should I?

NoNo

You shouldnt cry my darling

I love you

So...

...were you really

in love with Perumal?

Its raining. Wow!

-Good rains right?

- Ya right!

Bawa!

Same message is being forwarded

for the 9th year now

Idiots. I am receiving

for the 6th time

Really?

We are going to do what

no one else could in Dharavi?

How you made fun always!

Watch what we do now!

- Is it?

- 'On my way Madam'

My dear Nephew!

Is Dharavi getting a golden makeover?

'Come to coconut tree chawl'

Arise movement

will lead from now on!'

'Nobody can criticize us anymore'

Ya, ya!

'Bring that hero

of your Asura clan too'

- 'OK?'

- Ya!

Dharavi:
Now

Lets see how this is going to change'

'First. Houses'

'225 to 350 square feet houses'

'Not for everyone

For those the Govt. qualifies...'

'...In batches'

'Then, Schools...'

'...Hospitals, Pubs, Golf Course'

'Your children will get

free education in these schools'

'Rich kids

will have a separate school'

'Hospital will be the same'

'You can avail free treatment

ONLY during weekends'

- Noticed the golf ground? - Superb

'Where do we get money for this?'

'Lets sell the buildings

along the main road'

What do you think?

That's not our sector

- 'We don't need freebies'

- 'This side'

- 'Now you think!'

'Isn't this a silent revolution

for quality!'

- Thank you so much

- Thank you!

So kind of you!

Thank you

- Thank you so much, Sir

- Thank you so much

Wow!

Its so overwhelming

Saw how our new Dharavi

will look?

Huh?

Our Architect sir...

...and our Builder

deserve a round of applause

Dharavi WILL have a new name!

Dharavi will be

truly liberated now

Yay! My friends will visit me now

Superb!

Sir, why do we need a golf course?

Cricket, football and kabadi

are our games, right

Hey! Quit blabbering

Lenin!

Whats wrong in what he said?

Why do we need a golf course?

Hey! Its ok. Its ok

Everything has to become

high- class

'Otherwise, how will your friends

respect you?'

- 'Huh?'

- 'Exactly!'

Your happiness...

...is our priority

Zareena Maam is here

to do exactly this

This is a victory

for all of us!

Ey!

Applaud for Hari Daadas victory!

What are you looking at?

Idiots! Go on

Carry on! Louder

You will never understand!

What are you all talking about?

Because Vishnu

cant do anything directly...

...you have come

in the name of change is it?

He appreciates you

and you praise him

You think we are mad!

Uncle, you have started

your nonsense, is it?

Hey! Why are you threatening him?

Isnt that the truth!

Dont you know

who Manu Builder is?

Shiva, why are you

saying this?

Good things are happening in Dharavi

Be happy

You want these people

to live in this muck?

Who came to us

when we were living in muck?

Now...

...because we have made it liveable

They come drooling!

We have Bandra Kurla complex

on one side

And 5 railway stations around

'Commuting from Dharavi

to anywhere in Mumbai is easy'

That's the reason

MLA sir, wait!

Dont misinterpret this

This is not our motive

'Who is this half-wit?'

Stadiums and golf grounds

it seems

It takes 74 acres

to build a golf ground

Let's say you build it in 50 acres!

Why should we give all that land

and end up in 225 sq.ft houses?

Are we idiots to exchange

a goldmine for chaff?

Ey! Bharathi

Attached toilets in a house

is enough, is it?

Ya! You will raise buildings here

Wont Kaalas reputation be dented?

- Hey!

- Ey!

How will he survive then?

He needs a share, Madam

Give him that

He will be quiet

Come lets go

-'Silence!'

Nonsense!

Stop it

Stop it, I said

So many Govts.
