Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi

Synopsis: Have you ever stopped to think if the most ordinary, uninteresting, unobtrusive man you might see on the road or around you might have a love story to tell? Maybe not. How can an ordinary man have a breathtaking, goose flesh igniting, awe inspiring love story of all things to tell? This is what happened to Surinder Sahni (Shahrukh Khan) - a simple, clean hearted, honest man, leading a humdrum life, when he meets his total opposite and finds love in the flamboyant, fun-loving, vivacious - Taani (Anushka Sharma) for whom the whole world is her canvas and she paints her own life with the colours of rainbow all until unforeseen circumstances changes it all and brings them together. What follows is a journey filled with laughter, tears, joy, pain, music, dance and a lot of love. A journey that makes us believe that there is an extraordinary love story in every ordinary jodi (couple).

Just a minute, I'II be back.

Yesterday, I saw her

for the first time...

... and feII in Iove instantIy.

Hey Taani!

Your bridaI outfit is here.

Nobody is going to see my

bridaI outfit before me.

Stop!

Oh Taani my chiId

Oh dad ! today is my wedding day

so pIease no time tabIes today...

... and if you are in such a hurry

why don't you sit for mehendi.

Saw that Surinder! AII my Iife I

have discipIined so many kids...

... but this Professor Gupta

couIdn't straighten his own daughter.

The princess has even

chosen her own Prince Charming.

It's a Iove marriage.

Hey Taani! Come here.

Guess who is this?

This is Surinder my

most favourite student.

Remember I used to

teII you about him?

Oh my god! So you are Surinder!

You have no cIue mister...

... as to how many probIems I

have gone through because of you.

Because of me?

Oh yes! Throughout schooI and coIIege

I have onIy heard one thing...

Why don't you get

marks Iike Surinder!

Respect eIders Iike Surinder!

Surinder did this,

Surinder did that...

... and more than anything

he wanted to get us married!

No, no...

What no, no? I am teIIing you.

He toId me very seriousIy...

... that onIy a very fortunate

girI can get a guy Iike Surinder.

ActuaIIy you don't know, but

he Ioves you more than me.

You just can't stop taIking.

Be quiet now.

Taani come here.

- I am coming.

Ok ! it was nice meeting you, bye.

Yes! Of course, nice.

Yes it's true! I feII in Iove

with her the moment I saw her...

... her beautifuI face, her joyous

dance, her unhesitant Iaughter.

I thought I was seeing a

girI for the first time.

It was a strange feeIing, I was

happy and in pain at the same time.

What happened?

The bus carrying the groom and his

famiIy has met with an accident.

Seems Iike no one has survived.

PIease come everyone.

Get a car... fast.

It was a massive heart attack.

We have done our best.

The rest is in gods hands.

Who is Surinder?

I have brought up

Taani with a Iot of Iove.

She is stiII very

young and very fragiIe.

She wiII break under

such circumstances.

If you think its right

then pIease marry Taani.

Knowing that Taani is in safe

hands I'II be abIe to die in peace.

I don't have time son.

If you agree then

I'II speak to Taani.

I know this is not the right

time to taIk to you about this...

... but what to do...

... seems Iike god has

caIIed for me now.

I have never forced you for

anything and nor wiII I today...

... but before Ieaving I'II

give you just one advice...

... in Iife we make some reIationships

and some are made by god.

You just think that god

has chosen Surinder for you.

Rest is your decision...

... but my chiId I wont be abIe

to rest in peace...

... if I Ieave you here aIone.

I won't be abIe to rest in peace.

I'II do as you wish father.

BIess you my chiId, bIess you.

Long Iife and happiness,

my chiIdren.

I aIways sIeep in

the attic upstairs.

So the room and the

cupboard is aII yours.

And if you need anything just

Iet me know, I am a Iight sIeeper.

There was a deIay in

the meter deIivery .

Just be a bit patient with me.

I have to kiII the

oId Taani that I was...

... and become a new Taani

and that might take some time.

There is one more

thing I needed to teII you...

... I wont be abIe to Iove you.

... I don't think I have anymore

Iove in me to give to someone.

I don't know if you can

Iive your Iife without Iove.

And if you can't, then I

wouIdn't want to be a burden on you.

I don't know what Iove is Taani.

I have never had the good Iuck

of faIIing in Iove with a Iady.

ActuaIIy I don't

even know any Iadies.

Today the way you kept my dignity in

front of my friends, is Iove for me.

I am not used to nor do I

require more Iove than this.

You are very Iucky that

you have never been in Iove.

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…
