the middle of the day...

I was blissfully ignorant...

Of this love that flows forth unbridled...

True is this feeling... true is this love...

All else is just an illusion...

My heart slowly hums the

melodious notes of love...

Do you know when we reached here...?

I am yours and you, mine...

I'm wonderstruck at this moment...

When moonlight has emerged

in the middle of the day...

It seems awake yet it's dreaming...

My lovelorn heart...

We were crazy... We were strange...

We were different...

Very different... Incomplete on our

own but so complete together...

We were not walking on the ground...

There, we had slipped long ago...

We were flying in the sky...

Talking to the clouds...

We didn't have a care in the world...

We had made our own world...

Our world... Maya and Dev's world...

The world of our dreams...

But then dreams always leave

when you wake up to reality...

Come on, drink your milk fast...

I don't want to drink it... - Drink it!

Here... - It's ok...

It's ok, Dev... Thank you...

I don't know what to do, Sam...

I was going to ask you for

advice and I come to know...

...that it's the same situation

in your house too...God!

Every house seems to have the same story...

Will you stop this TV soap commentary?

Sam... be serious for once...

What's the point of being serious... Look...

Your son is mule headed...

He is not going to do anything...

Maya isn't at fault so she

isn't going to do anything...

So what do we do, Kamlu?

I know... You do have a point...

Whatever needs to be done has to

be done by Rhea and Rishi...

But they are both being so stubborn...

Who will convince them?

What if they convince each other?

And why will they do that?

They hardly know each other...

Precisely... two strangers...

same situation...

Then, friendship and problem solved...

remember?

But how will they meet each other?

Dad... What are we doing here?

I haven't bought you a present in a long time...

So I thought I'd do that today...

Dude, it's a toy store...

-Yeah... So?

It's for kids...

But to me you will always be a kid...

Mom... Should I take this for Arjun?

Yes... take it... It's very nice... It's fantastic...

You have very good taste...

It's a fabulous dog...take it...

Dad... What did you have for breakfast?

I don't know...

I don't remember her name...

Ok... I'll take this...

God! What an awful red dog... Just leave it...

Kamaljit... What a surprise!

Oh Samarjit... So nice to see you here...

Of all the places in New York

we had to meet here...

Coincidence... coincidence...

Just a coincidence...

How are you?

By the way what are you doing here?

We had come here to buy a

soft toy for my grandson...

...which he can cuddle upto in the night...

Even I was looking for something like that...

And I saw you...

Neither am I soft nor am I a toy...

So please stay away...

Much as I am enjoying this conversation...

can we please move on?

Of course... of course... of course...

There are so many beautiful

things here... red... blue... green...

Come on darling... help me get this one...

Don't you think that was weird behavior?

You think he was hitting on my mother-in-law?

Oh no... you don't need to worry about that...

...he pretty much hits on anything that moves...

Ok I'm getting late... I have to go...

Where are you heading?

-Work... 55th and 5th...

Oh great... I'll walk you... - Sure... -Alright...

Sam... I think it worked...

So... what did you say your name was?

Charlotte... - Charlotte... You are gorgeous!

Why are people so happy in New York?

Because they are not married... That's why...

Right... They are single...

No tension in life... No problem...

No stress...

They go home... shower... freshen themselves...

Watch TV... then they go out and get lucky...

We... we go home and get unlucky...

True... We go home to a sourface...

That likes nothing... That likes no one...

Not even us... I mean look at us...

You are super sexy... I'm a super stud...

But have they ever complimented us?

- Never!

All the time whine... whine... whine...

Blah... blah... blah... blah...

On and on and on...

-And on and on and on...

My God, how they trouble us...

How they sadden us...

Mock us... - Hurt us...

Why did we marry?

I know... Our brains were not working...

You know what? We should be single...

Yeah... Single...

Singles rock!

Single's the way to be... - I wanna be single...

I wanna be single too!

Single... - Single...

Single... - Single...

Single... - Single...

And you know what? -What?

We... -Yes?

...are lying... -What?

I really love her...

I really love him, too!

I love you, Maya...

You have called me five times since morning...

What's the problem?

The problem is that my work is that kind...

I never have the time to express my feelings...

And I keep expressing my feelings all the time...

So what's stopping you today?

Nothing's stopping you either...

Do you like diamonds, Maya?

Diamonds?

Large, beautiful... expensive diamonds...

Yeah of course...

Good... tell your husband to buy them foryou...

Dev...

I have bought you flowers...

Call Dev... Call him now...

Ok... I'll call him if you speak to Maya...

Why should I speak any longer?

I'm meeting you in five minutes...

Then speak to me forfour and a half minutes...

Voicemail!

Maya... I'm sulking and you aren't

even trying to make up...

Come on... Show me you care...

...say or do something which

shows that you are mine...

Only mine... Maya... Miss you!

Hey, Dev... Look we have to talk...

It's gone too far...

I don't want to fight anymore...

If you want the same then show me a sign...

Just a sign... Come on let's make this work...

I love you...

See you later...

Bye...

Dev... You? Here?

ljust got out of the station...

And these flowers?

Foryou...

That's sweet!

I'll see you later at home...

Yeah... Bye...

Flowers have their own language...

...they say so much silently... Right?

I asked for just one sign...

And got so many...

Missed you... -Yeah!

Where's Arjun?

Oh... he must have gone to

his violin class... Right?

He's quit the violin...

Quit violin? Why?

He thinks his violin is the

reason for ourfights...

What an idiot I have given birth to?

Sorry, Papa...

Shut up! There's no reason to say sorry...

There's no reason to quit violin...

...and there is absolutely

no reason to play football...

And that is the coach's order... Ok? Say ok...

Ok...

No more football...

Anyone can play the football...

Even I can... really...

But only cool dudes play the violin...

Right? And you are the coolest... ok?

You can play violin as much

as you want from today...

Play it day and night... Wheneveryou want...

I won't say anything... You know why?

Why?

I'll show you... because now I have this...

Go on play the violin... I don't hear nothing...
