What has possessed you now?

- Please don't scold him, Dolly.

- He will tell us,

if we ask him nicely.

Aren't we doing all this

for their happiness?

He's anything but happy.

Anu, please let him speak.

Kanan, don't be scared.

- Tell us what the problem is.

- Let me tell you.

He actually got married to me.

And then you got

the tree cut down.

What do we do now?

- It's...it's...

It's just too early.

What? What is too early?

I just finished my studies.

Getting married at this age?

So when do you want

to get married?

What is it that you want to do

that can't be done after marriage?

I... I just...l just need to find myself.

- Well done!

He's got his first world

issues to Amritsar.

Where exactly are you

searching for yourself?

What does he mean?

You are right here.

Should I help?

See...this is you.

And here is Anu.

- I've spent all my life here.

I didn't need to go

anywhere to find myself.

He doesn't know what he is saying.

You guys just don't get it!

So explain!

My dear, after marriage,

you can search...

You're not getting it!

He is right.

We don't understand anything.

- You both have been joined

at the hip since you were kids.

Both of you love each other.

I love him, but he doesn't.

Don't you love her?

Told you so many times, I do!

But you don't want to get married.

I want to, I want to marry you.

Well, then the problem is solved.

Come on, hug each other.

- Great, things are back on track now.

- Enough of this!

- Let's go.

- Well, problem sorted!

Let's go.

- Make yourself a drink.

- Come on, let's go.

- Let's go, mother.

Let's get a glass.

- Let's go.

- Today I want to drink.

I gave you a chance to call it off.

What more do you want? Tell me.

But you are too scared to, aren't you?

- Philanderer...

- Womaniser...

Alcoholic...

It's all true.

I'm all this and more.

I was all this and more.

Before I met Shashi.

How dare you enter my house!

I will kill you!

Don't you dare look at my sister!

You are right.

I am not worthy of her.

But I can try.

And I will be.

I am going to Amritsar.

To record the songs written by Shashi.

You don't know, do you?

She is a poet.

Nobody knows this.

- Everybody in Punjab reads her poems.

But they don't know

that she is the poet.

I will make sure she gets her due.

On Baisakhi day...

I'll ask you for

her hand in marriage.

Please take care

of Shashi till I return.

After that, I'll take

better care of her...

...than you ever could.

"My heart has got tangled with yours,

that every thread in it was pulled back."

"My heart has got tangled with yours,

that every thread in it was pulled back."

"Like in a saint's tomb,

shawl has been draped."

"Everyday it wove as it flew."

"Writing a ballad of love,

have I again."

"Sahiba (Juliet),

go where Mirza (Romeo) goes."

"Sahiba (Juliet),

go where Mirza (Romeo) goes."

- Every girl dreams of this day.

I'm sure Anu has too.

Don't ruin it for her.

I'm trying to do what

everybody wants me to.

I'm trying to make everybody happy.

If you aren't happy,

how can you make others happy?

You are a man, so act like one.

I am about to spend the

rest of my life with her.

Of course, I'm scared.

Are you scared of making a decision?

If you don't, you'll only regret it.

If you go ahead and get married...

...in spite of her being there,

you'll be lonely, always.

"There were blank letters.."

"..l cried and sent you

with the seals of love."

"There was a paperboat of my heart.."

"..the canal of tears made it drown."

"This out of tone music of the heart,

it makes some case, listen to it."

"You are my mirror,

and you don't recognize me."

"You don't consider me what I am,

no, don't be a stranger now."

"There is a cry of pain in the heart,

like some musical notes."

"You are there in my heart,

like some noiseless (peaceful) ragas.."

"..like some threads of saffron,

you were dissolved in such a way."

"I was lost..."

"What a hazy grey color

is there on my heart..."

"My heart has got tangled with yours,

that every thread in it was pulled back."

"Like in a saint's tomb,

shawl has been draped."

"Everyday it wove as it flew."

"Writing a ballad of love,

have I again."

"Sahiba (Juliet),

go where Mirza (Romeo) goes."

"Sahiba (Juliet).."

"O Sahiba,

there is injury of separation."

"O Sahiba,

the heart has become a rebel."

"The obstinacy has gone beyond the limit,

and the tongue chants."

"Without you.."

"Without you, even my breathe pierces me

like glass."

"Without you,

and the life seems like ash."

"Without you, even my breathe pierces me

like glass."

"Without you,

and the life seems like ash."

Go and see who is there.

Namaste.

- Namaste.

There's a letter for the doctor

and some money too.

Namaste.

- Namaste.

300 rupees.

Who has sent it?

Roop Lal Phillauri.

- That's a lot of money, doctor.

My tip?

Baisakhi is around the corner.

I was wrong.

You had asked him to do this,

hadn't you?

You would've remained

in the shadows...

...and he could've become famous

and made a lot of money.

But he didn't do that.

He is worthy of you.

He values and respects you.

How can I refuse to let my

sister marry such a man?

He will be here on Baisakhi day.

Your groom.

This brother of yours will

give you away in style.

Oh brother...

My child.

Anu...

- Anu...?

Anu...

- Anu...?

Anu'!

Anu'!

Why does everybody

keep fainting in this house?

What did you do?

I was only trying to help.

I can see that.

Anu...

Anu...

Anu...

Anu...? Baby?

It's okay, it's alright,

chill. Relax...

It's okay. chill, chill...

Hey, it's okay.

Anu, calm down. Calm down.

She's harmless.

It's alright. It's alright.

Anu...Anu, it's alright.

Wh...wha...

You are lucky you

can only see the veil.

Think of how scared I have been.

I can see the whole ghost.

Why can't I see her?

Well, I'm married to her, so...

only I can see her.

You didn't want to marry me,

but you went and married a ghost?

I didn't do it purposely.

It just happened.

If we hadn't gone to the tree,

we wouldn't have gotten into this mess.

Marrying you would

get anyone into a mess.

Baby, don't say that.

I'm sorry, I was confused.

I'll fix everything.

Does this ghost have a name?

Shashi.

Shashi?

Come on, relax. She won't hurt you.

Calm down. Come on.

Nothing will happen.

Nothing will happen.

She dresses a little scantily,

but the girl is nice.

She likes you.

She likes you.

Thank you.

There...

Why are you here?

Didn't I tell you, the tree...

I don't know why

I am stuck here.

She doesn't know.

Did you have any

unfinished business?

Something you needed to do?

Maybe.

Congratulations, Kishanchand!

"The auspicious day has come."

"Come my friends the house

has been decorated."

"I have met my love

and congratulate me on my love."

"My lover will come and take me,

the house has been decorated."

What had I stolen from you

that you stole Phillauri from me?

You used to sing his praises
