what would become of us after him

But Rohit... Rohit is not weak...

he loves you a lot

How easy it is for you

to say Papa was weak!

And Rohit... taking someone

else's help to attain your love...

isn't that a sign of weakness?

Tell me Mama...

To attain his love

he sought help...

what's wrong with that?

Look, I still maintain Rohit

is not a weak man

He knows you love someone else

and yet he is willing to accept you

That's strength, my child.

That's love.

If you reject his love today,

it will be a girl's decision...

and tomorrow when you repent it,

it will be a woman's regret!

Hello.

Hi Rohit.- Hi Naina.

Where are you?

In the office

Wanted to speak to you

Actually it's kind of private.

Private & confidential...J. Kapur?...

Oh My God! It's Frankie's letter

Didi... Guess what?

- Now what's happened?

Congratulation! Fantastic!

Thanks, Aman... But how did you know?

I haven't even opened it

What did you not open?

- Don't even open it...

Aman will run away.

- No, I won't

Just see... It's Frankie's letter!

- Yes... yes

What happened?

- Naina wants to meet Rohit

Finally and they're going for

the first meeting.

And Frankie's sent a letter

- Yes that's fantastic news.

I'm going to get her ready myself!

I've got the perfect white dress.

And do you know what?

- Yes... Frankie has sent a letter!

And now we'll go...& eat something.

But how did that happen?

I'm just a sexy genious.

Oh that you are!

Give to me...It's Frankie's letter...

Letter is mine give it to me.

- One minute.

Let's see what the cool dude says

It's... not Frankie's letter!

Alright everybody, she's coming...

- Come on...

Oh She's looking so pretty!

Just pull this up a bit...

Lord protect you from evil eye!

Now enough... May I leave?

I like her hair open

Your hair...- What?

Iooks better open

Go

All this...?- Please.

I know you don't have

love to give me today

But I'm sure someday you

will have... I'm sure

And I will wait for that day...

because I know that day

will come... for sure

But for today, please

have faith in my love

Because I know it's enough

for both of us, Naina...

I wanted to give these flowers

to you earlier too... I couldn't

Please don't refuse them today...

or else they will wilt!

Naina... Naina... Naina...

Marry me!

Hello...Yeah...Yeah...

She said 'yes'!

Everybody...I need a hug

come on everybody.

The next step was to convince

Karsanbhai and Sarlaben...

which wasn't very difficult.

After all...

It's just geography!

Come... Come... Julieben!

Jennifer!- Jennifer who?

It's alright.

Why don't you have something?

- Yes... Sure

Listen... just pass me the Cock!

Coke, Dad. Please...

- Yes, yes. Coke

So everything is fixed!

Engagement and our wedding

anniversary will be on the same day

And two days later will be

the wedding... is it alright?

As you say!

As you wish.

And the funny thing, Jamnaben is...

You know. It's Jennifer

- Yes... Jenniferben...

there's this famous decorator

from Paris...

who is coming and at the same time

he will decorate my hole!

No...I have a very big hole! Isn't it?

Very big.- Hall

Now look Patelji... I leave all

the details of the wedding upto you

I am just happy that we got

such a good boy

I just miss my son!

- Very sad.

Rohit told us...

What happened?- Heart attack!

Oh, heart attack.

Just waiting for Naina

and Shiv to settle down...

then I can peacefully

leave for Chandigarh!

And what about Gia?

She is not ours!- Dadi.

No, no, Gia is as much ours

as Naina is

And my husband didn't die

of a heart attack...

he commited suicide

Why did you have to

tell them the truth?

You cannot base new

relationships on a lie

You couldn't handle

old relationships

How will you know

how to handle new ones?

Relationships are not handled.

They are maintained

But what would you know about them?

Now listen my dear daughter-in-law...

I will only be your daughter-in-law

the day Gia is your grand daughter

Gia was not my grand daughter

and she will never be!

Blood is blood after all!

That's it! I don't want to hear anymore!

Why? When you are so fond

of saying the truth...

Iearn to listen to it too.

Gai is not my grand daughter

She is not a part of this family

She is just a burden...

a burden which you thrust

on this family by adopting her

A burden which took away

all the happiness in the family...

took away peace...took away my son...

I hate her... I hate her...

I hate that nasty little...

NO!

We are still paying

for my son's mistakes

The first mistake he made

was marrying you

The second was adopting that girl

He made a third one too

You? Who the hell are you to

interfere in our family matters?

No one... Just a voice that should

have reached you a long time ago

A truth that you should

have realized long ago

Please Jenny, please let me

Since you are harping on the truth,

I would like to tell you a truth too

About your son's

illicit relationship...

which he hid from all of you

But he couldn't hide its result

Do you know the name of the result?

Aman please.- Jenny, it's alright.

The result was Gia...

Gia!

who could not be accepted

by her own mother...

but was accepted by

your daughter-in-law, Jenny...

was brought into this house

by your daughter-in-law, Jenny...

Jenny... who could have seen the face

of the other woman in Gia's face...

who could have seen her husband's

mistakes in that face...

But what she chose

to see were those incomplete eyes...

and she chose to complete those

eyes by filling them with love...

your daughter-in-law Jenny

Your son would have understood

her hurt and her anger...

but he couldn't understand

her acceptance

Jenny's strength reminded him

every minute of his own weakness...

and it was this feeling that

took his life... Not Jenny

Dear Jennifer

I know in these last six years

I have only enquired about Gia...

never about you

But today, in this last letter

I want to thank you..

Thank You Jennifer. Thank You

Women are built to forgive the

mistakes that their husbands make...

but very few women have the courage

to accept the mistake...

and shower love to such a degree

that it doesn't remain a mistake

You accepted Gia when l, her mother,

couldn't accept her

And for this I will always

remain indebted to you

They say that when

a man makes a mistake...

he also possesses the ability

to pay the price for it

But Jennifer, all these years you have

paid a price for a mistake...

that was not yours

in the first place

And all that because of me

If you can, please forgive me

I'm sorry Jennifer.

I'm really sorry

I caused you a lot of pain!

I'm sorry.

He was a good man!

It was just a mistake!

Just a mistake!

Yes, my child... Yes...

He was a good man!

He was a good man, Mother...

He was a good man Naina!

Just a mistake!

And finally Gia's perfect family

was complete... complete

All the distances were bridged...

and we started praying together...
