"Gompa... you mean, monastery?"

When are you leaving?

Soon after you leave

I've fallen in love with you

My heart goes out to you

Across streets and lanes...

my heart seeks you

"Across streets and lanes,

my heart seeks you"

My eyes pine without you

My heart's fallen for you

"Come to me, my love"

My heart...

seeks you

It looks for a trace of you

I've fallen in love with you

What I return to you...

always belonged to you

What have I to lose?

Of my own...

I have nothing

Every thing belongs to you

"Without you,

my heart..."

is like the terrified deer...

is like the hysteric breeze

I've fallen in love with you

My heart goes out to you

What's that?

A gift for you

A hawk?

There's a story behind the hawk.

Would you like to hear it?

"On a stormy night like this one,

there was blowing a strong breeze"

To save its loved ones

from the breeze...

this hawk took off to fly

from one mountain to another

One of its loved ones

fell off on the way

And she didn't even get to know

That hawk went and fell

among a flock of hens

And it started growing up

among the chickens...

and started thinking it

was a chicken too

Whenever it looked up

at the skies...

it felt a desire to touch them

But it thought it couldn't fly;

that it was itself a chicken

It gave up thinking about

the skies...

and started pecking around

on the ground

"One day, there came there a beggar"

He could easily see that there

was a hawk among the chickens...

that had forgotten its identity

He tried to reason with

the hawk

To forsake the ground

and fly in the skies

But the eagle wouldn't agree

The beggar then picked it up.

The eagle struggled and cried

But the beggar wouldn't listen

He took the bird to the peak of

a mountain and flung it down

The eagle began to fall...

"gradually, it spread its wings..."

and it could fly

This is you

Your place is there in the skies

You must find your place

Go to your room immediately!

"Go away, I say!"

What's happening here?

"What were you doing in his room,

so late in the night?"

"I have done nothing wrong, father.

- Nothing wrong?"

You've only been doing wrong! First

you thrust this stranger on us

"He brought with himself a gun,

bullets and everything for terror"

There will be gunfire in this sacred

place now. There will be bloodshed!

And you hold such a man's hand in the

night and mutter sweet nothings?

Talking to someone is not a sin.

I have not committed any sin

"But you will,

if you haven't yet!"

I can see it clearly in your eyes!

You are going wayward!

"Love, marriage, worldly pleasures

are not for you!"

You've got to join the monastery

in search of the Eternal Truth!

I know that.

- No! You don't know anything!

You're straying from your path!

I'm so ashamed!

"Sir, I have something

to say to you"

What will you tell me?

I'm the one who will tell you

I've never seen anyone

as selfish as you

You have taken advantage

of our favours

"Sir, we haven't done

what you imagine"

Do you take me for a fool?

You think I was born yesterday?

I know Kaaya inside-out

"When she coughs, I get to know

that she's going to fall ill"

Can you look me in the eye

and honestly say...

that you don't love her?

"Yes, I love her"

I never had this feeling

for anyone earlier

I want to give her

everything I possess

And what is that?

Let me also hear

I know the world you

people live in

"Consumed by greed and avarice,

man deceives another man..."

is a fiend all his life

and eventually dies

You perhaps forget. I was once

part of that world

I used to be a very big officer.

I kicked that lifestyle to come here!

Kaaya was a little child

when her mother died

Her death had left me shattered

The sorrow I went through after

being separated from my beloved...

"I didn't want Kaaya to go through

and thus, I brought her here"

"Shiven, every love story

has a tragic ending"

And I don't want sorrow and grief

to even cast a shadow on Kaaya

But sir...

- What? What?

You say you're in love with her?

You are a police officer.

You came here wounded

"Suppose you're shot dead tomorrow,

what happens of Kaaya?"

Have you ever considered that?

Have you?

"No, why must you think of that?

All you want is a moment of joy"

Even if Kaaya has to weep

all her life!

Must we stop smiling for

fear of crying then?

Must we stop forging relations?

Because death is inevitable...

must we stop living too?

However much you love

your dear ones...

you can't shield them from

their moments of hardship

"Neither you, nor I.

No matter how much we try"

Kaaya will have to bear

her share of the grief

"We can't do anything about it.

- We can, too!"

Should we kill our desires

in their very roots...

we can escape grief and sorrow

The desire to escape grief and sorrow

is also a desire

The only difference is that you

consider your desire to be great...

and look down upon my desire

of settling down as selfishness

Let Kaaya decide now...

which one among us

is more selfish

"You, or me?"

"Kaaya, your father has done

a huge favour to me"

He has made me face the truth.

That I do really love you

I want you to go with me...

but your father has

other plans for you

You have to decide now

as to what you want

I'll wait for your decision

She can come to the monastery anytime

she wishes too. What's the hurry?

We have made a very big mistake

by allowing that man to stay here

It has now become very important

for Kaaya to join the monastery

Does she love him?

- I don't know

All I know is that it would be best

if she took the initiation now

Certainly. But the walls of

the monastery weren't built...

for people to hide

from grief and sorrow

Neither is this a prison

Let Kaaya decide when she

wants to join us

Why will she? I will!

"When a child is ill, the parents

decide on giving her the bitter pill"

Will one stranger come and change

the course of her life...?

I will not let that happen

"Zakir, which era do you belong to?"

"In the 21st century, you're talking

about being a good friend?"

"Now speak up.

Where's Shiven, tell us"

Also tell us what conspiracies

you have hatched against us

Speak up!

Speak

Will you be a good friend

or save your life?

Turn around a bit... that's okay!

Look at that tall Lama! Come!

"Dance with me, c'mon"

"What's up, feller?

You look terrific"

And what a body! Solid build!

And look at his hair

A filmi hero all the way!

Like to work in the movies?

Want to play hero?

"Give me a snap, with your phone

number, height and other details"

Hurry up

What happened? No photographs?

No problem

I'll take a picture immediately.

So give me a smile...

I'll shove the camera up yours

if you take a picture

Sister-in-law...?

This is Shiven

"Give the phone to Zakir, please"

"Can you hear me, sister-in-law?

Give the phone to Zakir, please"

Sister-in-law?

What happened?

Is everything all right?

Zakir is dead.

He was killed. Murdered

I'll take it
