Kal Ho Naa Ho

New York... one of the biggest cities

in the world

Business capital of the world.

Every breath of the city...every

heartbeat is filled with speed

People are always in a hurry here...

in a hurry to leave home...in a hurry

to reach the office...

always in a hurry to be a

step or two ahead of life

There is no place for anyone

who can't cope here

Miles away from lndia, this city

is infested with lndians

In fact they say every fourth face

in Newk is an lndian

One more thing...

Oh... by the way that's me!.

This city taught me

to be independent...

it taught me to fulfill

my responsibilities...

taught me to face life...

...but it couldn't teach me to love...

where was the time?

Whenever I watched the

city from far...

I felt Papa was closer

Whenever I missed him,

I came here

I am Naina Catherine Kapur

and this is my story

I understand Mr.Shah,

but try and understand my problem

I must have the loan extension, please.

I know the restaurant

is centrally situated.

But there's competition

around, Mr. Shah...

My mother, Jennifer.

After Papa passed away...

the entire responsibility

of the family fell on her

But she never allowed us to ever

feel the burden of her sorrows

Thank you...I.

- I'm home.

Where were you?

Central Park

Central Park? Why?

To meet someone.

- Who?

To meet my boyfriend...

Bill...bills...bills

Private & confidential.

That's mine.

What is this?

It's Sweetu's mail again

When will the mailman understand

that we are Kapur with a ' U'...

and they are Kapoor with an 'O'?

He always...

Were you crying?

No... you were crying...

No mom.

My mother and l...

We lied to each other everyday

Kunwari kudi

Kunwari kudi marriage bureau,

what's this?

Why don't you ask your grandmother?

It must some new plan

to find you a groom

But I don't want to get married...

Why doesn't Dadi leave me alone?

Why doesn't she just leave?

Mom! Where's she?

It's going to be eight...

Hi Guys, 10 seconds to go.

8 seconds to go.

4,3,2,1....bang.

My grandmother Lajjo...

She had three dreams

One that Newk

becomes a part of Punjab

Two, that I marry a Sardar

and three... that my mother dies

Saraswatiji, Lata, Asha and Usha have

served you with their music for years

But from today Kammo,

Vimmo and l, Lajjo...

Hello! will serve you.

So without delay further we are

going to present you a song

The words are ' Pritam come hither...'

The song is specially requested by

our neighbour, Chaddaji from Queens...

That's very kind of you

Kammo... Vimmo...

Go Lajjo...

Go Lajjo...

Pritam, come hither...

Pritam, come hither...

My sad heart calls out to you...

Pritam, come hither...

Come hither... Come hither...

Dadi!....Stop it.

Oh God! Interrupted our prayers?

Insulted the goddess?

Don't you have any shame?

Don't you have any shame?

Singing 'Come hither'

'Come hither' to Chaddaji?

Who's singing it to Chaddaji?

We are singing ' Pritam, come hither'

What is his first name?

- Pritam....

And what is this?

What? - This.

Wow! Pictures from Kunwari Kudi!

All three of them are so goodlooking

Three? They look

like the same guy

No, no my child...

they are different

Now what is that Kunwari kudi ad?

Hey girl, Hey Girl, hey Girl...

choose your groom and be free

Choose one, two or three

Dadi, I am not interested in marrying

anyone... one two or three

If you don't marry, my child,

how will you have children?

I can have my children.

There's no need to marry

My brother Shiv, a handicap.

He couldn't play basketball

like the other boys...

but he could be quite irritating

like the other boys

Shiv, put off the T.V.

Whenever I see,

it's always basketball!

Just because I can't play

doesn't mean I can't see...

Don't get cute with me.

All right. Hurry up.

Gia, help your brother.

Didi, did you see my new dolls?

- Gia!

This is Mama, this is you...

this is bhaiyya, this is me and...

Oh, so you are awake...!

Looking so good...

Iike Hari Putter...

Harry Potter, dadi...

Ya ya... whatever... Hari, Harry...

Good morning, dadi.

- Ya Ya...

What's your schedule today?

Dadi's love for Shiv was only

matched by her hatred for Gia

Gia was adopted and probably that's why

Dadi did not consider her, our own

And Gia... She always kept the

Dadi doll away from her perfect family

Distance was not just

between the two in the family...

Guru Nanak and Jesus had

their own battle in the house

It's so cold! Is the heater on?

You are always on, aren't you?

What?- Nothing!

Will it?- Shut up.

Bet? - Don't irritate me.

Chicken is just 1 dollar.

What's for breakfast?

- Fruit and cereal

What? - Cereal...

Has it started? The serial

Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki...?

Not the TV serial...

the cereal we eat

So what's new?

That we eat everyday

Poor daughter-in-law... she doesn't

know how to make lndian food

Our dear daughter-in-law, Jenny

Do you know, Naina?

I saw a lovely dream last night

In the dream, I was eating

hot aloo parathas...

with lots of white butter

Oh... how I missed Chandigarh!

If you miss Chandigarh so much

then you must go away there

What do you think Naina?

I'm going nowhere. If I leave,

what will happen to these children?

I'm very concerned about them

And I'm concerned only about them

Yes of course... why would

you be concerned about me?

Who am I to you?

If only my son was alive today...

Only if he was alive...

Stop it. Just stop it.

Here's your dollar. You won.

As usual, are you happy now?

And both of you...just forget it.

My morning began

this same way everyday

Mama and Dadi's fight,

followed by my angry walkout...

and then listening to my stupid

neighbour, Sweetu's stupid chatter

Oh Hi!- One minute.

Okay, make that 2 glaced doughnuts,

2 blue berry muffins.

2 chocolate frappechinos.

And what will you have?

Sweetu. Full name, Jasprit Kapoor...

Kapoor with two '0's.

my neighbour....

& unfortunately best friend.

She has two problems.

The weight that she never loses...

and the fact that she

never feels sad about it

Tell, Na...

- One double expresso please.

Here's your letter.

It came again to our house

Your name had to be J. Kapoor...

Oh wow Naina! Blind date application.

- What application?

It's a very cool service...

it's very popular in Newk

Just fill in a form describing

the guy of your choice...

write something about yourself...

they match the details and bingo,

you get the guy...!

Wow! And what have you written

about yourself?

See Naina, I have written

what's the truth... what is... is

What did you write?

That from far,

I look like Aishwarya Rai...

And up close,

like Aishwarya Rai's house

Oh my god!

- Just look at me....

Oh my god! Just look at him

Look at me. I'm out of control.

- He's so cute.

Sweetu, look at me...

- I see you everyday...

He's so cute...

- Shut up...shut up.

Boys, boys boys...

That's all you are interested in

What will happen?

You will get the boy you want...

you will get married, you will

have his children and then...
