Raanjhanaa Page #2

Synopsis: The pundit's son Kundan (Dhanush) has fallen for the girl at first sight. That they're both kids makes us dismiss it as a meaningless crush. But a few years later, the boy is still in love with the girl, Zoya (Sonam Kapoor). When she's in school, he follows her around holding her hand and getting slapped in the process. Finally, she relents because of his "consistency". The film shifts cities when Zoya gets into JNU (Jawaharlal Nehru University), and through her, we are introduced to the idealistic and political culture of the place. She discovers a long-lost strength as she confronts and then falls for student leader Akram (Abhay Deol). The film takes a turn when Zoya returns to her hometown after eight long years only to find some things changed, and others surprisingly the same.

I hate liars.

'What could be better than

a wife of sound character?'

'But I was a Banerasi priest.

Dark at that.'

How could I accept defeat?

In U.P.,

girls are cajoled in two ways.

First is dedication.

Follow her around all day.

Write love letters,

and ask her friend to deliver it.

But, every boy in U.P was doing that.

'But I wasn't a handsome hunk.'

'To have passed by doing all this.'

'So I failed.'

Now, the second way.

Scaring the girl.

What are you doing?

If you stop the vehicle you'll not

be able to drive it from tomorrow.

What's the problem?

- You're the problem.

Don't chase me around.

- So whom should I chase?

I don't know. But don't chase me.

Say that you don't love me.

I don't love you.

Just because I am a Hindu.

If you say.

I'll read out the Kalma(holy book).

You are a liar.

Say that you don't love me.

Or I'll slit the wrist.

Mine.

I don't love you.

What are you doing?

I've suffered enough humiliation.

You'll leave for Aligarh

tomorrow itself.

Go to your aunt's place.

And study there.

Just think, sir. The boy is Hindu.

We'll be disgraced in society.

What about your daughter who flirts

around with the entire neighbourhood?

How dare you come here

to complain about me?

Get lost.

- Keep quiet.

Keep quiet.

Is this the age to be doing all this?

And from where did you

learn to misbehave?

You'll be leaving for Aligarh

tomorrow itself.

Kundan, your father-in-law's sending...

...your wife away to Aligarh, forcefully.

Hurry up, or you will miss her.

Find another Ram, he's gone for good.

Your papa and I love you a lot.

But what you've done

will not be tolerated.

Study hard, Zoya.

And remember what we said.

And don't get down at any station.

Zoya!

Zoya!

Are you blind?

Zoya, don't worry. I'll wait for you.

- Stop.

You bet. By the time you return

everything would've changed.

Waiting for you. Always.

'That day I realised that heart

is neither on the left or right.'

'It is in the centre.'

'Because there is where I felt the pain.'

'But I wasn't dead yet.'

'Because this wasn't the

end of the story by any means.'

'I was yet to reach my prime.'

Hail Mahadev!

No, Kundan.

Let papa go.

Kundan! This isn't right.

I'll punish both of you in jail.

I'm ready to go to jail.

Just let me colour you once.

Beware, Murari. I'll kill you.

- Catch him.

Tear his clothes off.

Kundan, the arms of law are very long.

And so are the legs of criminals.

Careful, papa.

Kundan. - Floor him, Kundan.

Kundan, no.

Hail Mahadev!

You're always doing as you want.

Papa was on duty.

You think you're funny. I'll show you.

You are a rascal.

Will you rip off just my father's clothes?

Kundan is not that easy to get, Bindiya.

If you think you can entice me

with your beauty then you are so wrong.

Your competition is returning.

Rascal. Darn you and that witch.

Even after 8 years. you're still

in love with her, isn't it?

Go to hell, Kundan. - Murari.

You are great.

She'll die a torturous death. I swear.

Vultures will feast on her, and you too.

What news you've given me!

"Come. Come back to your love."

"Someone's waiting for you."

"My luck will change.

My luck will change."

"For the better."

"There is chaos and music everywhere."

"You've left to come to me."

"Love is in the air.

Sweetheart, please show up."

"I am madly in love with you."

"You are the only one I have."

"You light up my life."

"You are the only one I have."

"You are my world."

"You are the only one I have."

"You are the only one I have."

"My body is grooving.

My heart's thumping."

"In waiting for you."

"The entire world knows

what's in my heart."

"Only I know what's in your heart."

"Let me feel a little more love."

"Show me a little more love."

"I'm madly in love with you."

"You are the only one I have."

"You are the only one I have."

"I see vibrancy all around.

Everything seems to have come to life."

"I'm so proud of myself.

I have lost control."

"I see vibrancy all around.

Everything seems to have come to life."

"I'm so proud of myself.

I have lost control."

"Come and whisk me away."

"Come and take me away with a smile."

"There is chaos and music everywhere."

"You've left to come to me."

"Love is in the air.

Sweetheart, please show up."

Seems like sir's car has broken down.

To hell with the sir.

Are you going to meet her

in front of him?

Hold the wrench. - Yes.

Lord Shiva is on our side.

Not just Lord Shiva.

Even the spark plug of the sir's car...

...is on our side.

Murari, you are genius.

Run, quickly. I'll handle here.

Is there a problem? - No.

Don't be so unfair.

Let's carry one bag at least.

We talked to him for two hours.

Let him do work worth 200 bucks at least.

Shall I give him the books as well?

- Sure. Go ahead.

What? She just didn't recognise you?

Right. She just passed by.

But Murari, she is really beautiful.

Even Katrina Kaif

pales in comparison to her.

Yes, she is your Katrina Kaif.

And both, she and Katrina

don't recognise you.

How is it going, Kundan?

- Hello, aunty.

But Kundan, we haven't

run out of gas yet?

Aunty, it's the festive season.

- Yes.

You will not get it later.

- That's right.

Come. Keep it here.

Okay, Kundan. Look, the sink pipe

has started leaking again.

Please change it.

Okay. I'll check.

And the servicing of the Fiat

was not up to the mark.

We had to go pick up Zoya this morning.

And it just wouldn't start.

I need to check the spark plug.

- Yes.

So brother...did she recognise you?

Did she recognise you?

It means that this girl

has lost her memory.

Take her to some doctor.

She will refuse to come.

But still, take her to a doctor.

Come on. Get lost. Go.

Okay. All hail Lord Shiva.

How are you?

I am good now.

That is what I was wondering.

What's wrong with Banaras?

Even the delivery guys

are flirting with girls.

I felt that I have seen you somewhere.

How is the wrist?

This one.

Okay. See you. - When?

Soon. Bye.

From a small school to JNU.

How did you get there?

Have you stopped eating

Gol Gappas(snacks)?

This is my friend. Rashmi.

Rashmi, this is...

Myself Shankar. Kundan Shankar.

Are the Gol Gappas good?

- They are excellent.

Zoya, how are we going to go?

- Where?

We have to elope, right?

Why are we going to elope?

Okay. So I'll convert into a Muslim.

Why would you convert into a Muslim?

Then how will we get married?

Whose marriage?

Yours and mine.

Hold on, brother.

Why would I and you get married?

Because we love each other.

- Since when?

Are five done? - There is one left.

So give. And some more for madam.

One minute.

What were you saying?

- Talk decently.

Okay.

Let's make this a little decent.

When did we fall in love?

Give this to me.

What do you mean

when did we fall in love?

We have been in love

since the last 8 years.

In your dreams, Kundan.

There is nothing of that sort.

I was in the 9th grade back then.

Yes. As if I was pursuing law.

I was also in the 10th grade.
