Saajan Page #4

Synopsis: Aman (Sanjay Dutt) is a poor, handicapped orphan who is befriended by wealthy Akash Verma (Salman Khan) during his childhood. Akash's parents adopt him and give him their family name, and Akash and Aman grow up as brothers. While Akash is a womanizer, Aman takes to writing poems under the pen name Sagar. The poems get published, and Aman becomes very popular. One of his fans is a young woman by the name of Pooja Saxena (Madhuri Dixit), who corresponds with Sagar. Akash meets Pooja and falls head over heels in love with her. When Aman comes to know this, he asks Akash to pose as Sagar, which he does, and Pooja and Akash fall in love with each other. A heartbroken Aman looks on, as he knows that although women may like his poetry, they will never come out openly and love him when they see his handicap. At the end, Akash discovers that Aman is actually Sagar and loves Pooja, so he decides to sacrifice his love for Aman.

for Sagar's photograph.

Your wait is over.

Sagar has come in person.

Pooja here.

How did you think of me

so early in the morning?

- To remind you of this evening.

- Anything special?

That's why l called. There's a grand

show at Nehru Stadium this evening.

l'm also taking part in it.

- Then l will definitely come.

- Don't be late. l'll be waiting.

l didn't know you dance so well.

Forget it. l'm very happy today.

The show went off better than...

Veera....?

l'm a poet and you're my poetry.

That day you escaped my clutches.

But who will rescue you today?

- Come on. - Let go!

- Get lost!

Don't beat him!

Police! Run!

Catch them all!

Don't let anyone escape!

What were you doing here?

You know how helpless you are.

Man protects woman. You can't

Iook after yourself, forget any girl!

Had anything untoward happened,

you wouldn't ever forgive yourself!

Excellent God!

What justice you mete out!

You snatched my parents

as soon as l took birth.

l said nothing.

When l was able to walk,

you gave me these crutches.

l kept mum.

From childhood to youth

l had to cross many dark alleys.

l had to bear loneliness.

l bore everything. Do you know why?

Because l'm accustomed to

drinking this bitter truth!

But when you made me realize this

bitter truth in front of Pooja...

l couldn't tolerate it.

Today l realize it, dear God...

l am truly an incomplete man!

A cripple! Is this my fault?

ls this my crime?

Who made this incomplete man?

Who has made me a joke

in the eyes of the world?

Answer me! Who brought me

to this juncture of life?

You! You are the culprit not me!

You are at fault, not me!

For what crime are you punishing me?

Answer me!

Let's go.

l've found the answer

to every question, my Lord.

Forgive me.

Good your plane didn't get derailed.

Once l was going to America, the

plane was delayed. Both stayed here.

Quiet. Hope you didn't

tell Aman l'm coming.

How could l say when

you told me not to tell him?

You said, so l didn't tell him.

But why the suspense?

Anything that occurs suddenly

has its own pleasure.

Aman and l will meet

each other suddenly.

What happened suddenly, mamma mia!

l think the tire is punctured.

How did this happen suddenly?

Did you call me beautiful?

You look after the tire.

l'll look after them.

What is it?

Do you mind getting up?

Walking like a blind bat!

Tire ready sir.

He's got a flat!

What a girl she was!

You're in love again!

She was terrific from head to toe!

She wounded this friend

of yours with one look!

You! Hardly saw the girl

and already wounded?

ln my shoes you too would be wounded!

How do l describe her?

She's the first ray of the sun!

What happens to the second,

third and fourth rays?

Them? They'll get a complex on

seeing her and hide behind clouds.

- And this?

- Don't ask pal!

She entered my heart through

the windows of the eyes.

ls that a heart or a traflic light?

The eye blinks later but

the signal comes first.

Careful. There might be an accident.

lt had to take place and it has!

Now l wait for the day..

When l will see her.

Later. First let's eat dinner.

You're not interested

in my love story!

- Where is Akash?

- He himself doesn't know that.

l mean he doesn't eat or drink.

No manners to sleep either!

Honestly his condition

is very dangerous.

You're standing here.

And l've searched the whole house!

Why are you looking like a Romeo?

You neither eat nor drink on time

nor do you come to the site.

l don't know what's wrong with me.

l don't like anything.

Only one thing bothers me.

Where do l find her?

Don't you feel sorry for me?

- A little.

- Help me find her.

Help you find her? Are you nuts?

All right. Be ready in the morning.

Get up!

- Have you found her?

- Do you see her night and day?

Harvest your beard and get dressed.

Lalchand was asking about you.

Even Dad called up.

Get on line before a warrant

is issued in your name.

- Do l have to come?

- Yes, you have to!

Pooja is here to meet you.

She's waiting in the hall.

Come down quickly. l'll be downstairs.

- Who is Pooja?

- The owner of Popular Book Store.

Aman sir buys books from her.

A girl?

Aman with a girl? Can't get it.

Aman buying books. Get it?

What you talking? l can't understand

Go to the kitchen and

make me breakfast.

Get it or do l have to explain?

- How did you come by?

- Nothing special.

You didn't turn up after the show.

Mother too was upset.

Even l wondered what the matter was.

l couldn't come as l was busy.

Tell her soon l'll come to see her.

She has sent carrot pudding for you.

Thank her on my behalf.

See you. It's time to open the shop.

l forgot to tell you one thing.

Sagar's new book has arrived.

You'll get it at a discount.

What happened to him?

Get some water!

What happened to him?

Here's some water.

- Found her!

- Found whom?

The one who stole my sleep, my peace!

But where did you see her here?

Don't ask the story of my love!

The one l searched all over town,

was found in my own backyard!

- What's wrong with him?

- But who is she?

The one who's just come home.

She's the girl l was searching for!

The queen of my dreams.

My heart throb!

lf l get her, my life will change.

ls she the same girl?

Did you recognize her?

My eyes don't deceive me.

How can l forget the face

that made me forget myself?

l swear by you l can never forget her!

Perceive the target of the arrow.

Lightning struck there

but my nest was destroyed!

The ship of hope was almost ashore.

Time! Did the storm have to hit now?

You gave new life to my words.

She's the first ray of sunlight.

l can't live without her!

Only you can diminish the distance

between us. l need your help.

There was only one ray

of light in my dark life.

l love her very much.

My foot wouldn't come near you!

Have you ever seen your face?

l became victim to a bet.

Somebody can give you pity

but not love! Cripple!

For the sake of friendship

l will sacrifice my love.

Pooja will only belong to Akash!

You're standing here.

l looked for you all over.

l've made one decision.

To attain Pooja, l'm willing

to do anything, scale any heights.

She is not that type of girl.

l know her quite well.

She loves a poet whom

she has never seen.

Who is that fortunate man?

His name is Sagar.

And he lives in Bombay.

Through letters,

she gave him her heart.

Then what do l do?

What happens to me?

There is one way.

To win her love, you must

pretend to be him.

- What do you mean?

- l mean you must become Sagar.

No, l can't do this!

You just said, you'd do anything.

That doesn't mean l'll become Sagar!

Would it be right to reach the

peak of love through fraudulent means?

Maybe you've forgotten that

Lord Krishna said in the Geeta...

lf a lie helps somebody,

it's better than a 1000 truths.

And then you are smart, handsome,

and belong to a rich family.

lf you come into her life,

her life will change.

God knows what kind of a man Sagar is.
