What do I do at this moment

What do I do to become calm,

At peace

Let there be more

This noise of breathing

Passion burn brighter

Let there be more

This noise of breathing

Fever rise higher

Let there be more

Let us meet more

And burn more

I meet you for the first time

Each time

It's a statement of my helplessness

Should I snatch you or let you go

Should I ask for you

or turn you away

What do I do at this moment

What do I do to become calm,

At peace

Let there be more

This noise of breathing

Passion burn brighter

Let there be more

This noise of breathing

Fever rise higher

Let there be more

Let us meet more

And burn more

I'm knotted up in desire

Untie me

I'm a knock

You're the closed door

Open up

Restlessness deep in my mind

Come let us live this dream

Let there be more

This noise of breathing

Passion burn brighter

Let there be more

Let us meet more

And burn more

ltjust doesn't stop

Does not tire

This storm

Of breath

Don't even come to know

What burns where

With fear

With body and mind

All trembling

With the scorch of desire

Blazes more

Fire burns and smoke rises

There is smoke everywhere

It's a statement of my helplessness

It's a statement of my helplessness

Ustad Jameel Khan was right.

You are a star.

Son, I'll pay you three

times more than your contract!

Look at that, a miser like

me is willing to give more!

He is a craze in India too.

Every day there's

something new about him.

He's busy. I'll say bye

on the phone.

You've kept my

reputation among these people.

Now do the same in

Barcelona and Paris.

Artiste... creative...

Always in their own world...

that's why he is an artiste.

Just a minute... excuse me.

Let me just check if Jordan is free.

I'll just be back.

Bye...

Bye Jordan. Say bye and let me go.

They are waiting for me.

It will be a problem.

Let it be a problem.

It won't be for you.

You're going away.

After that don't you want

me to be happy in my home?

No.

I don't want you to

be happy in your home.

Don't you have any feelings at all?

Really, what do you feel about me?

I feel that you

should be here with me.

Right now.

That's all I feel.

Then get lost!

You only care about yourself.

It's always about what you want.

Come here.

You are uncouth and rude!

We wouldn't have lasted six months!

Thank God you're going away.

Are you deliberately

fighting with me?

I can't stand you any longer.

You are deliberately

fighting with me!

Then what did you think?

That we would part on a happy note?

So that when we meet again,

you could have fun with me again?

Are you mad?

- I was then!

But not anymore!

Come here... I want

to say bye properly.

Get lost!

Heer, you come here right now!

Go to hell!

Heer, I'm telling you...

Go to hell!

Never again!

So Jordan...

Go to hell!

All of you... stay away from me!

What happened?

I'll get your

boarding pass, come quick.

But make it quick, tiger! Else

I'll have a nervous breakdown.

Jordan?

What the hell? What are you doing?

What have you done?

Have you gone mad?

- Heer...

Stay there... don't move!

Jay... he won't do anything.

Don't shoot!

Don't shoot, don't shoot.

Don't do anything.

Don't touch him! It's okay!

It's fine!

Heer?

What's going on?

There! Your plan's worked.

Now I can never be happy in my home.

I only wanted to say goodbye.

Don't show me your

face as long as I live!

I don't want to see you again!

Really?

Get out!

Get out!

Today the media isn't

here to cover an artiste.

It's here to cover a criminal.

There are cases of assault and

intrusion against Jordan in Prague.

Platinum Music has also sued him.

In this world

Of yours

At every step

Man is wrong

Whatever I think is right and do

You say that it's wrong

If I am wrong, then who is right?

All I have to say about

this is 'No comments'.

How can you call the

press and say 'no comments'?

Sir, isn't it a fact that you

are releasing Jordan's next album?

An album of the songs he

recorded for you in Europe?

No comments.

The album hits the stores

and the artiste is in prison.

That is my vision.

The little boy who grew up in

this courtyard is now behind bars.

Negative, negative...

The media loves everything negative.

This is the very house that Jordan

was kicked out of two years ago.

To live by my wishes

should I submit a petition to you?

That means you have more right on me

Than I do on myself

My right

Keep it here

My right

Keep it here

My right

Keep it here

Hey

In these queues

And these debts

Why do you strangle

my habit of living?

I am uncouth

I'm from those parts

Where there is no modesty, no shame

Heart says that rituals

are the fine of living

World is enemy

Everything is anti

Set them on fire

My heart tells me

Live by your heart or die

My right

Keep it here

You know...

Many years ago there

was a jungle over here.

A dense and fearsome jungle.

Then one day, a city

came up in its place.

Neat and tidy houses, wide roads.

Everything became planned

and proper.

But the day the

jungle was torn down...

a flock of birds...

flew away forever.

It never came back.

I'm looking for those birds.

Has anyone seen them?

No!

Anyone seen them?

Eco-friendly

Protector of nature

I too am nature

With tradition, with society

Why

You cut me up into pieces?

Why do you scatter me like this?

Why teach lessons of truth

When you can't handle the truth

When someone speaks the truth

You inflict rules

and regulations on him

Your fear

Your love

Your praise

Keep to yourself

My right

Keep it here

It seems like Jordan can't

handle his new found success.

This crowd here in Lucknow

can't believe that...

...he didn't show up for his concert.

When its quite clear that...

he was seen coming out of the

Lucknow airport this morning.

Has he lost it?

You want me to lock him up again?

Dhingra sir...

- Khatana...

you better get him back

to his senses.

Because I really feel like

chopping him into tiny pieces.

Don't sir me!

I'm losing my money, bloody idiot!

I instructed all of you

to watch his every move.

Sir, he left of his own will.

All that I

Wish to say

Is ruined by

My words

My words

"What did we take from the world?"

"What did the world give us?"

"Why should we care for the world?"

"Did the world care for us?"

Even this day has come!

When I have to drag

you out of a brothel.

You will be finished

even before you start!

Mark my words.

Your reputation is

going from bad to worse.

And you won't even realise

when people start hating you.

What's happened to you, JJ?

What are you becoming?

What's your problem?

Look at yourself!

Do you want people

to run away from you?

You're listening to me, right?

What I'm saying is very important.

No, you can't! Get lost!

You can't talk like that!

Who do you think you are?

Anyone who meets you...

gets put off by you!

Your popularity is going down...

do you know that?

All I want to know is that...
