Abhimanyu Bubla Roy.

I love you.

- Say it without the "Bubla."

- Yeah, right.

Tiny little drops of love.

Like a sweet drink.

Slowly love grows and grows.

Softly a habit grows and grows.

When We are face to face.

What can I do?

I just can't believe it.

From dawn to dusk...

I seek you.

I cannot stop myself.

This love is intoxicating.

Our love is intoxicating.

Now you see.,

what I do to you.

- I've got an idea.

- No.

- Let's make a tape.

- No.

Listen! Let's make a mixed tape.

The best of our lives. Our story

told through film songs.

The soundtrack of our lives.

Like our favourite songs?

Not necessarily. But they must

be linked to our lives.

There are so many beautiful songs.

Sad songs, rubbish songs.

Our songs.

- Like our dirty secret?

- Exactly.

- Just tape them back to back.

- Ten for me. ten for you.

Side B should have

5 mins blank at the end.

We keep a space for the last song.

I love the idea! Let's do this.

I'll eat you up.

I melt a little.

I slip a little.

I stumble a little...

and fall into your arms.

I slide a little.

I slip a little.

Sometimes I change my mind

for no reason.

Distance between us from now.

I feel spring become

one with my breath.

We meet on every path.

We exchange glances.

This love is intoxicating.

Our love is intoxicating.

- Get out of here.

- Abhi!

This intoxication may give me

a hangover.

Our love is intoxicating.

You are a devil!

You'll go to hell.

So you like this fellow?

Does he live With you?

He wishes.

What would you say

to Ma if she were alive?

To your mother?

"Sorry." I guess.

I am sorry I couldn't

make her happy.

I am sorry I was drunk that night.

The car, I didn't even see it turn.

If there was one thing I could

change in life...

it would be to make her happy.

My child...

I'm sorry.

Hey Banker!

Why are you crying?

The valiant hero finally persuaded

the heroine's cruel father.

And they all lived happily ever after.

But nobody said there's so much

more beyond 'happily ever after.'

Listen sometime,

your heart says things.

Come spread your wings.

Life is whispering in your ears.

Come spread your wings.

Open your arms wide.

With your arms wide open...

Slowly now. teach yourself

how to love.

Breathe freely, breathe deeply.

Slowly now, teach yourself

how to smile.

Sometimes float with the clouds...

in the open sky.

What are you scared of?

Listen sometime,

your heart says things.

Listen sometime,

your heart says things.

Can't you hear the sky

is calling you.

All the things you want to forget

that cause pain.

Let them fly away too.

Listen sometime.

your heart says things.

Come spread your wings.

Open your arms wide.

With your arms wide open...

Slowly now, teach yourself

how to love.

Sorry, I got late. Come let's go.

Om Shanti Om. Two tickets

10.30 show.

Not in the mood.

Drink up. Your mood will change.

Come.

Here.

Come on!

what's wrong?

Do I need your permission

to go to the loo?

What's come over you?

Can I go first?

It's an emergency.

This is an emergency too!

Are you nuts?

We can't keep Om and Shanti waiting.

We're getting late.

Not everything is a joke, Abhi.

Ok. Tell me what's happened?

Don't you know?

Oh God! Not again.

Try and forget about

your album, please.

Abhi, you don't get it.

Just go. Abhi, stop it!

There's more to life than music.

Listen to me.

Excuse me.

I'm sorry.

Bindu, I love you.

The rest doesn't matter.

I love you, to, Abhi.

I see a whole lifetime

ahead of me.

Nothing excites me.

I myself don't know what I want.

That's scary.

- What are you doing?

- Ok. Time out.

Now tell me.

Where do you see yourself

in five years?

Fine. I'll go first.

Married. Devdas.

2 bed flat in Matunga.
