''These moments, these memories,

l'll cherish for years to come''

''Should these seasons go away,

l'll complain''

''l'll remember these moments

for years to come''

''lf these seasons go away,

l'll complain''

Don't they suffer the heat, Daija?

Stop the car.

-Why Daija?

What are you doing?

Come. You also get down.

Get down.

But it's a desert!

- Bow to this land.

Bow? What for?

Because you're here

for the first time.

This is the threshhold

of your house.

Won't just folding my hands do?

The ground must be very hot.

Okay, okay, don't look like that.

l said, bow to it.

Sit down, sit down. There is no escape

from this.

You used to pine for this desert

out there?

This is not just a desert.

Just look around, it's full

of your family's legends

Legends don't have to bear the heat.

Else, they'd get a sun-stroke too!

Keep quiet.

Just see, they are sitting as though

this desert is air-conditioned!

What stuff are these

people made of?

They are made out of

the local soil.

They're as seasoned as

the tree above them.

Papa migrated before

l was born, else...

When this sun seasons you too

in a couple of days,...

and when it narrates to you the

unlimited legends of your ancestors...

you too will be happy.

After signing the papers,...

l'll catch the first flight

to London.

As you command.

Don't use that tone with me, please.

l feel as though you're scolding me!

l am scolding you!

Okay, l'll do my work,

bow to the land...

seek your permission,

then go away. Happy?

Forget all that for now.

Your talk has moved the

mansion itself to hug you!

Greetings - Greetings - Greetings

- Greetings - Come, Let's go.

His Lordship has

certainly grown up!

This is the caretaker

of this place. Mr. Tiwari.

What's all this farce?

- Tradition, son.

Your father went abroad, but your

parents' portraits hang here.

Parents don't have feet,

you see...

Can l remove this garland now?

Our neighbour, Mr. Thakur is here. -Okay.

Who is he?

He's not just a neighbour, but

a very good friend of your father.

When the world had deserted him,

this man stood firmly by him.

Don't just greet him casually,

but bow to him,...

and address him respectfully, come.

When kids grow, their place is not

at one's feet. lt's in one's heart.

l've come here after 18 years today.

Just to embrace you, son.

l don't commit a faux pas, did l?

No. You just reminded him

of your father.

And the proud local men and women

don't let their tears be seen.

Come, l'll show you your room.

Y:

''O dear clouds...''

''O dear clouds''

''Your heart is definitely yearning,

the way you're showering...''

''whom have you fallen

in love with?''

''O dear cloud...''

''My state is

somewhat like yours''

''Your state is

somewhat like theirs''

''Drench me in rains, O clouds''

''for someone has

uttered my name''

''O dear clouds...''

''O dear clouds''

''Tell us his name...

- No''

''Where does he live?''

''ls he a prince...?

Tell us''

''Spring has set in;

flowers blossom''

''Spring has set in;

flowers blossom''

''My friends say things that

make me blush; lower my gaze...''

''O dear clouds''

''Why am l longing?

Why is it raining?''

''Whom am l missing?''

''Why am l yearning...?''

What are you thinking of, son?

Of you.

Of me? l'm a thing of the past now.

Think of the days to come.

Don't avoid the issue.

You brought me to my home.

But surely you have a home too.

You haven't talked about it

till today.

Yes. And that's strange, isn't it?

l had totally forgotten.

You have reminded me that l too

had a home once.

but so much time has gone by...

that l didn't even think of it.

lt's only your voice

that echoes in my ears.

May you live long, son.

''These moments, these memories,

l'll cherish for years to come''

''And if these seasons change,

l'll beg for them''

''These moments, these memories,

l'll cherish for years to come''

''And if these seasons change,

l'll beg for them''

Y:

''From these glimpses

of my dreams...''

''from the bondage l share

with my memories...''

''how will l ever

set my heart free?''

''And if these seasons change,

l'll plead for them''

''These moments...''

What's the matter with you?

Nothing.

Do you remember that small boy

who used to tell me everything?

There's nothing to tell.

Then why are you sitting

in the dark like this?

l just thought somebody

would put the light on...

And suppose l hadn't, would you

have gone on sitting? Anyway...

you have to go to a dinner

at Mr. Thakur, remember?

l'm not in the mood.

lt's you who is invited,

not your mood.

You'll have to go. Come on.

Come my son, may you live long.

l can't tell you how happy l am

to see you here.

What happened?

Son is it burning too much?

lt's nothing serious.

You're great! lf l was in your shoes,

l'd have screamed this place down.

What's the fun in burning

without making a noise?

You know my name?

See what he's asking?

Whether you know us or not,

everybody out here knows you.

You're his Lordship from London.

And who am l?

l'm Pallavi.

- What are you...

And this uncle of yours,

l'm his only daughter.

Now don't say you're happy to meet me,

for it's all said and done.

You really made me wait.

Now he'll say,

he had a telephone call.

Sorry, but l got a call.

Just as l was through with that,

l got another call.

Just as l finished,

l got a call from the S.P.

l'm fed up with this telephone.

l think l'll have my line cut.

l'm really fed up with all this.

l'm thinking of having it disconnected.

He's a first class liar!

He's always like this.

And the funniest part is, everyone

knows he has no telephone!

''These moments,

l will remember for years''

''And when the seasons change,

l will complain''

''These moments,

l will cherish for years''

''lf the seasons change,

l will beg for them''

''Do not tease me, Lord Krishna''

''l'm only a milkmaid...

l'm not Radha''

''Do not tease me, Lord Krishna''

''l'm a milkmaid...

l'm not your beloved, Radha''

''Why have you held my hand?''

''l implore you, O Krishna''

''Why have you held my hand?''

''l implore you, O Krishna''

''You are naughty, O Krishna''

''l'm only a milkmaid...

l'm not your beloved Radha''

''Do not tease me, O Krishna''

''lt's Radha you always tease''

''She's the one you love''

''Why have you doused

those colours on me?''

''For l am only a milkmaid...

l'm not your Radha''

''Do not tease me, O Krishna''

''l'm only a milkmaid...

l'm not your Radha''

''Do not tease me, O Krishna''

Greetings.

- Bless you, son.

Please have this.

ls this the way to

accept a blessing?

Come on, bow to me first.

l know my name, Papa.

Come on, bow to me.

- How can he do that?

Why? Has he hurt his spine?

And l'm elder to him too.

And what are you gawking at?

Come on, bow to me.

Enough, my child.

Okay, cup your hand please.

The right one.

Better you open your mouth!

What are you looking at him for?

Forgot your mouth at home? Open it.

You couldn't have had your breakfast?
