My name is Karan... Karan Choudhry.

Samir... Samir Sharma.

Hey guys ! Gurukul ?

This was their first meeting. Even they

did not know then that this...

little acquaintance at the station,

would lead to a lifetime of friendship.

Quite a big room.

First come first served, guys!

This bed is mine.

Oh God! Is this a bed or a rock...?

Can't do anything about it, can we ?

Now that we are in Gurukul,

We have to study.

Even if the bed feels like a rock,

We have to sleep.

Hey guys! That was a cool poem,

wasn't it?

No one is listening. No reaction.

lf you guys snore at night,

just let me know...

so I can hustle up

some cotton for my ears.

That's because I really cherish my

eight hours of sleep,...

dreaming of pretty girls!

So let me know, thanks ....

What's that ? Who's voice is that ?

Who is that ?

That is the principal of Gurukul.

The one and only, Mr. Narayan Shankar.

Tradition, Honor and Discipline.

These are the three pillars

of Gurukul,...

the values with which

we shape your future.

Those who have been here...

have set very high standards for you.

Today, all of them are successful men

in their own respective fields

some are great writers, great

businessmen and some great politicians.

But all of them have one thing

in common. All their lives...

they have followed the principles

taught to them, by this Gurukul.

Today you have the opportunity

to be a part of this great lineage.

You have been selected from all over

the country, and brought here...

because we believe that you have

what it takes to be great men.

But success does not come so easily.

Behind every great success

lies a great sacrifice.

By entering this institution today,...

you have shut yourself

from the outside world.

We expect that you will work

with full concentration,...

and follow the rules and regulations of

this institution with strict discipline.

lf any one is found

guilty of misconduct,...

he will be expelled immediately.

And remember one thing.

Once you are expelled from here the

doors of all other...

educational institutions would also

be shut for you, forever.

So if there is anyone here who is

not willing to make this sacrifice,...

then he is free to walk out

of that gate right now.

But if you have decided

to stay here,...

then that gate and the world outside

does not exist for you anymore.

Now I want all of you to close

your eyes, bow your heads...

and think of every word

I have said to you,...

and make your own decision.

Vicky! That's my photograph!

-I can see that, my friend,...

but who is this lady in red with you?

-Nobody, give it back to me.

Stop it, Vicky...

what are you doing?

Oh God! its you.

You scared us.

Come here quickly.

I've got something to show you.

Who is this?

This? Romeo and Juliet,

Heer Ranjha,...

Samir and ...Samir and ...?

Sanjana! And it's nothing

like what you think.

She's just a good friend of mine...

actually, she was a friend.

She was a friend?

Sanju was my childhood friend.

We were best friends.

We were neighbors and

literally grew up together.

We had this photograph taken at

a funfair. It was her birthday,...

and the next day, she was

supposed to leave. Forever.

Her father had been transferred and

that was the last time that I saw her.

That was six years ago.

I was just fourteen years old

But do you know where she is now?

I heard a few months ago that she

could be in this very town.

That's great! Which means that

you know where she lives?

No, I don't.

And I don't want to find out.

Why not?

Because it's been a long time and I do

not know if she will recognize me...

or whether she would

like to meet me or not.

So, we'll meet if we are destined to.

Otherwise we won't.

Hey Samir! You really love this girl.

Oh no, nothing of the sort.

she's just an old friend.

Shut up! Just an old friend!

Tell me something. How many other

old friends' photographs...

have you been carrying with you

for the last six years?

That's the bell for your love!

Come on, it's time to sleep.

Old friend, my foot!

I wish I had that photograph

in my pocket. By now,...

I'd have been in her house, relishing

the savories she'd make for me.

And look at you! ''We'll meet if we're

destined to; otherwise, we won't''

Know what, Karan! There's a girls'

hostel behind our college?

So what do I do?

-Oh no. You don't do anything.

You just think.

And I'll do it.

Oh sh*t! I'm late.

Why do we have to begin so early?

Where is my sleeve...?

Who's that...?

Stop there!

Stop it! You thief.

Ishika! Miss Monica is coming!

Hurry up!

Ishika! . Ishk....

We're through at last! Let's return...

Im terribly hungry.

We've still got to buy mineral water.

-It was there in the shop back there

You guys take the stuff to the jeep.

I'll go and get it.

You're always thinking about food.

You know nothing else, do you.

How much is this for?

-''dedh'' rupees

How can it be ''Dedh''?

The real price is

''dhai'' rupees.

No madam, it's for ''dedh'' rupees.

I know everything. The price is

''dhai'' rupees ...

and I will pay you accordingly . not

a penny more, not a penny less.

Please try to understand what I say...

-I will listen to nothing!

Do you want to give it or don't you?

Tell me clearly.

But ma'am... it costs ''dedh'' rupees,

Not ''dhai'' rupees!

Only last week my friend bought

the same thing from your shop...

at ''dhai'' rupees.

-Maybe,...

but the price now is ''dedh'' rupees.

-But Ill pay ''dhai'' Rupees.

Quickly pack it for me.

-Somebody, please make her see reason

''We'll meet, if we are destined to.''

Are you giving it or not?

-How can I charge...

''dhai'' rupees when it costs

''dedh'' rupees?

I don't know! Ill pay ''dhai''...

here's the money, if you want it.

By the way, ''dedh'' is lesser than

''dhai'' Rupees.

Is it really...?

-That's just what I was...

trying to explain.

-How much is ''Dedh'' rupees?

Well... one and a half rupees.

Ok, so give it to me for

one and a half rupees.

As you wish.

Your bangles and change.

Show me these bangles, please.

For you?

-Yes

What?

- No, for a friend of mine...

that red one,...

yes, the green one...

Samir.....Samir Sharma !

-Sanju....

What are you doing here?

-Me ... I am a student at Gurukul.

Not bad, Mr. Sharma.

-Cool huh !

Which means you've been here

for so long,...

and did not even bother to call me!

-I didn't have your telephone number.

Stop making excuses!

The truth is that you

didn't even think of me,...

so it did not bother you whether

I was in this town or not.

What is my phone number !

Excuse me ma'am.

-This is mine. Thank you.

What is it?

Nothing... just the list

of things I had to buy.

Have you found everything?

-Yes... Ive found everything.

So come with me!

Im going to set you straight!

Who do you think you are...? Just

because you're a student at Gurukul...

you think you can act tough!

We're going home straight away.

Papa will be so happy to see you.

-Sanju, I cannot come now,...

Aditya Chopra

Aditya Chopra (born 21 May 1971) is an Indian filmmaker. His work as a director includes Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), Mohabbatein (2000), Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008) and Befikre (2016).He is also the current Chairman of India's multi-national film, media and entertainment conglomerate Yash Raj Films (YRF). Chopra has written and produced a number of critically acclaimed and commercially successful films under the banner such as Veer-Zaara (2004), Fanaa (2006), Band Baaja Baaraat (2010), Jab Tak Hai Jaan (2012), the Dhoom series (2004, 2006 & 2013), Sultan (2016) and the Tiger series (2012 & 2017). He has broken away from typecast through production of off-beat films such as Kabul Express (2006), Chak De! India (2007), Rocket Singh (2009), Dum Laga Ke Haisha (2015) and Hichki! (2018), that do not necessarily fit into the realm of "Masala films". Chopra is also the first to move towards a true film studio model through independent projects helmed by producers, writers and directors under his banner. Major production and post-production work of the company is now carried out of YRF Studios (co-founded by his ex-wife Payal Khanna), where Chopra serves as Chief Executive. As of March 2018, he has produced eight films that have accumulated worldwide gross earnings of more than ₹200 crore, which is the most for an Indian film producer. In December 2009, Chopra rejected an extremely aggressive acquisition bid by Walt Disney, valued upwards of ₹2500 crore, to remain and continue purely as an independent entity exclusively funded by domestic enterprises. Apart from emerging as an equitable brand, his company has earned the status of a movie movie mogul, through distribution networks spread across the globe. With a majority of his work being part of the highest grossing films of all time, the company is estimated to be net worth ₹6350 crore (FY17/18) by multiple NSE and BSE analysts, thereby making it the biggest and most successful film production company in the history of Cinema. The Government of India honoured him with the National Film Award for his contribution to the arts, on three separate years (1995, 2005 and 2007) through the Directorate of Film Festivals. In June 2018, he was awarded membership into The Academy by the Producers Guild of America. Widely regarded as one of the most influential and powerful executives in Indian entertainment, Chopra has however rejected the publicity and fame that came with being Yash Chopra's son and the Chief Executive of Yash Raj Films. He has remained extremely media-shy and a passive individual, battling constant reports of an alleged dysthymic disorder throughout his three-decade career, resulting in very few public photos of him being in existence. more…
