Ive got to return to Gurukul.

-Then promise you'll come on Sunday.

A true promise?

-True promise.

Khan Baba, when is the train from

Aligarh scheduled to arrive?

The train should be here any moment.

Whom have you come to receive?

The professor of my college.

-I see...

the train should be here any moment.

Khan Baba, who's that girl?

That's Kiran.

She comes here quite often.

Kiran!

Hey! Gurukul. Are you from Gurukul?

...No, No, its OK.

Shall we leave?

-Yes sir...

Ok guys, this is it! I have decided!

The first thing tomorrow morning...

Im going to cross that gate,

enter that girls' hostel,...

and wherever that girl is,

I am going to find her,...

and look deep into her eyes

and tell her . You're beautiful.

I am going to do it!

Now you guys tell me

what you'll have decided.

What say, Samir? Is she going to be

just a friend all your life.

For years, I have been

just a friend of hers.

But now it's time to move ahead.

Hey Karan! What have you thought ?

I am going to think of her as the most

beautiful dream Ive ever had,...

and forget about her.

-What? Don't be such a sissy!

You guys must've have forgotten,

but I still remember every word ...

Narayan Shankar uttered: ''if you

break the rules of Gurukul...''

''you will be expelled immediately.''

Oh c'mon, Karan!

Don't be so scared!

People usually go overboard

during a speech...

that doesn't mean that one has to

take it so seriously.

Narayan Shankar means

every word he says.

He has done it earlier,

and he can do it again.

What has he done earlier?

its a famous story.

There used to be this student here

a few years ago,

He was brilliant. Everyone thought

he would do something in life.

But he made the mistake of breaking

a rule of Gurukul . he fell in love.

Narayan Shankar expelled him without

even seeing him or meeting him.

And, as everyone knows,...

once you're expelled from here,

you cannot get admission elsewhere.

Today, no one knows where he is

or what has happened to him.

As for the girl he loved,

she committed suicide.

She was Narayan Shankar's

one and only child!

Everyone thought that this incident

would soften Narayan Shankar.

Instead, it only made him harder.

So Im neither a sissy nor a coward...

but I am not strong enough to

fight Mr. Narayan Shankar.

I am not that strong.

I guess she is destined to be

just a friend of mine.

You will have to wait

a little, Ishk...

till someone comes and

saves us from Narayan Shankar.

What do you want?

You can't get inside.

Go away... Go!

I can't do this on my own.

Where have you been?

I was at the market to

get all the stuff,...

and you are having

problems with the bulb.

Mr. Seera, I had asked you for

some paperwork. Is it ready?

Yes, sir, it's ready.

-Please leave it on my table.,

What's happening here?

Good morning sir!

My name is Raj Aryan.

I have an appointment with you, sir.

-Don't you know...

that there are students here who are

trying to concentrate on their work?

Don't you understand that you mustn't

make noise in a place like this?

Im sorry sir. its just that the

little girl saw the violin in my hand..

and insisted on hearing it.

I just couldn't break her heart.

It is more important

not to break rules here.

Follow me.

So you teach music.

-Yes sir.

And you want to be given the opportunity

to teach music in this university.

Yes sir.

Being fully aware of the

traditions of the Gurukul?

Yes.

Knowing for a fact that no form of

music has ever been taught here,...

nor probably will it ever be?

-Yes sir

I read here that you have already been

offered jobs in 3 other universities..

and yet you have come here all

the way to seek a job . Why?

I was told that you would not

allow me to teach music here.

They said that it was impossible.

It seemed like a challenge to me

and I like challenges.

And what makes you think that you

can make me change my mind.

From what I have

heard about you, sir...

I think even you

like challenges. Right sir?

How can your music help my students?

Students remain buried in their

books the whole day, sir.

Music will rejuvenate them and make

their learning process less stressful.

Besides, they will end up learning

music, which is a joy in itself.

Music is a wonderful thing sir!

its...

What happens if you do not find enough

students, who want to learn music?

That's no problem, sir.

Ill pack this small bag, and leave.

Ill be gone.

I like your self-confidence Mr. Aryan.

-Thank you sir.

I will give you one opportunity.

If you do find enough students wishing

to learn music in their spare time,...

you've got yourself a job.

Otherwise, you will leave.

Yes, set it here....

thank you.

That's quite a classroom you've

made for yourself, Mr. Aryan.

Im sorry sir! I just thought,

that at the end of the day...

the students would feel much

better being outside. That's all.

You already have ten more students

registered since yesterday.

That's quite an achievement in one day.

-Thank you sir! As I said...

music is such a wonderful thing....sir

You have the job, Mr. Aryan.

This is the contract.

Please read it carefully and sign it.

Mr. Aryan, you're about to

become a part of Gurukul.

I would like to explain something.

-Please do.

For the last 25 years,...

I have run this place with tradition,

honor, and discipline.

Nothing has changed since then.

Which is why Gurkul has retained

its pristine glory.

Yesterday, you changed

the order of a few chairs.

Tomorrow, you might want

to change something else.

I do not like change of

any kind, Mr. Aryan.

I just don't like changes.

I understand sir.

Good. Welcome to Gurukul Mr. Aryan .

Love... the greatest inspiration

for music.

Love and music are very

closely connected to each other.

Both originate from the heart...

and the destinies of both depend on

whether the heart expresses it or not.

lf you love somebody...

just go and tell her.

Don't worry about whether

she accepts or refuses.

Similarly, if you feel like playing

the instrument in front of you,...

just pick it up and play it;

do not worry about being good or bad,

Just listen to your heart

and do what it says.

Now carefully look at that gate.

its the gate you look at every day.

its the gate you guys

can never cross.

Look at that gate again and imagine.

That the girl you truly love,

is standing behind that gate...

waiting for you...

calling out to you!

Yes, yes! She's calling out to you!

She's asking you to come and

break down that gate,...

so that it never closes again.

She's not going to wait forever!

Listen to your heart.!

Go on! Get up and break

open that gate!

C'mon! Just listen to your heart

Get up! And get going!

Go on...!

There is so much of hatred

in this world.

Even then, the hearts are full of love.

Go forth and tell this universe,...

Nothing can stop these love stories.

''I stop in mid-walk''

''Left to myself I am lost''

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…
