Saathiya Page #4

Synopsis: Running away from home can't keep a couple together. A signed paper can't keep a couple together. Love can. While for most Love Stories, marriage is the "goal", the fact remains that marriage is just the beginning. Saathiya continues on, from where most love stories end. From the infatuation stage "when a couple thinks they are in love" right through to "when a couple discovers the true meaning of love". Aditya (Vivek Oberoi) and Suhani (Rani Mukerji) met and fell in love. But when they eloped and set up home hoping that just Love will do the trick - well that's just the beginning of their story.

Like Billu, even we'll have our days...

- Who's Billu?

Good old Bill Gates, who else?

You should come quickly to take

your calls, especially at night.

Uncle, your phone.

What are you doing?

What's the matter?

Has it got disconnected?

Then, why don't you talk?

I am not listening.

Who are you looking for?

- Do you know where Suhani is?

Hadn't you both broken up?

Broken up... yet...

Do you know where she is?

I've been looking for her for many days.

- She's gone.

Gone? - She's gone to the US.

US? - No, she has gone on

a Medical camp.

When is she returning?

- In 3 weeks.

Three weeks is too long, isn't it?

What will you do with 2,000 rupees?

I am going out.

Where? Outside Bombay?

Yes... I'll be back soon.

What if your father finds out...?

Please handle him.

Are you going with Suhani?

To find her.

"The sky was barren"

"When I went in search of you,

my dear beloved"

"I walked many miserable miles.

"It's all such a waste"

"It's all a wasteland, so futile..."

"Let me meet my darling...

Let me meet, just once"

"O my dearest one,

I scanned the skies minutely..."

"and plucked the broken stars"

"This starlight till the dawn,

my eyes get no sleep"

"Just to hear your footfall..."

"I have even borne the silence of

the stones and the statues"

"I now find only dejection"

"Look at the fate that is

etched on my brow"

"Whenever I saw footprints,

I've bowed my head there"

"How many times must

I call out to you?"

"Your name is what

I find everywhere"

Why did you take so long to come?

I can't live without you...

not a single day.

Not a moment.

Can you do anything for me?

Should I jump off a moving train?

Marry me.

We'll marry and stay

in our own homes.

We won't tell anyone yet.

Not a soul? - No.

When the time is right,

we'll disclose it.

What happened?

What are you thinking?

I am very scared.

Never mind. Then, get married

in a state of scare.

Don't be silly.

I am really scared.

I'll give you one slap

and it will be alright.

I warned you 10 times.

Think before you say yes.

And every time you told me

to shut up.

I'm in a dilemma.

I've thought about this

very seriously.

If I felt it was wrong I would

never let you do it.

Now come on or you'll miss the bus.

Come on.

How come you're wearing

a sari today?

Isn't she looking pretty?

Of course.

But she suddenly looks like, it's time

for her to get married.

Why don't I get her married, then?

Let's hurry up.

We're sure to miss the bus...

We'll go by an auto.

Where are my princesses going

dressed like this?

We are getting late.

- I am glad I met you...

God bless you.

I'm late today.

Adi... which way are you going?

Why don't you carry on...?

Aren't you very late today?

Yes, we were discussing

the Gazdar case.

Where are you going in

such a hurry?

Close by... to meet a friend.

Get in, I'll drop you.

- No, it's OK.

Get in, you'll waste money on

a taxi otherwise. Sit down.

You haven't informed their

parents, have you?

No, just a few college friends.

Very good. I am tired of marrying

couples in the court.

We're crossing the court,

let's cross it fast.

And Mr. Aditya,

what's cooking nowadays?

Nothing at all, dad.

I am aware of everything

that is happening.

What?

You haven't completed

your law studies,

And you've started a

computer business.

Oh, that! - What oh...?

Where will you get the capital from?

The Bank is ready to give a loan.

- Really?

Only, if you sign the guarantee...

- Of course. It's your right.

We have a debt to repay to you.

Isn't it our duty?

Where is the groom?

This is going to be interesting.

Aditya, what are you doing

in a temple?

So, this is a temple?

- You don't believe in God.

So, what are you doing here?

You must have a reason.

What can I do, aunty? You have to

come here to get married.

Oh shut up! Anyway, God will

do his justice.

Does he do his justice

in English or in Hindi?

"O beloved..."

"Listen, my darling.

Listen my dearest"

"The moon will stealthily enter

through the window, barefoot"

"Listen, my beloved.

Listen my love"

Now, the fun starts.

My wife has gone and all I am left with

is a receipt for our marriage.

Have patience for a few days.

How many days? ...4... 5... 6...?

First, let Dina get married at least.

- Then, ask her to get married.

Why don't we get her married

next week itself?

First, let me finish my internship

and in the meanwhile...

You must establish your business.

- You are being so cold.

Do you know today is

our nuptial night?

Can we meet somewhere?

Right now, I am at

Jeevan uncle's stores...

Asking the rates for food grains.

- You are so unromantic. So unromantic!

What good night?

All alone...

It's a lonely night.

Remove your hand.

People are watching. - So what?

You are my legal wife.

Here's the certificate.

Why are you carrying this around?

- What can I do?

This is the only substitute I have.

Why are you going on and on with wife?

Wife...? Take off your hand.

Is she your wife?

- No, she is my life.

Sit properly.

This is a public bus.

Are you married?

- Yes, since 15 years.

I pity your husband.

Nothing...d

Suhani, there is a call for you.

What is it?

I told you I love you.

- I know.

Then, you should also know that

we both have the same address.

Yet, we are both so far.

Tell me, you love me.

Tell the doctor to check

his patients.

I say, hang up...

Sir, it's an emergency case.

We'll have to keep him

in intensive care.

He sounds a little mad.

She didn't say it? - Run.

Sorry. You had to wait for 2 hours.

To catch a glimpse of you,

I can wait for two lifetimes.

I've got to go. - No.

People are coming to see Dina.

- No.

"Come everyday to me

turn the night into a day"

"On the sly, under the

sheet of the night"

"Where even the moon can't approach"

"Let's go behind a cloud"

"Where every drop pines...

every drop is in turmoil"

"Where time stops still"

"Give us a hug under the

sheet of the night"

"In the warmth of the

winter's sunshine"

"Look at me with lowered eyes..."

"from behind your hand"

"Blow hot and cold. Ever so softly

in the raag Marva"

"Let not the day set.

Nor the night fall"

"Let not the sun set"

"And if it does, let not the

morning break"

"Let the night go on and on..."

"Lying to friends,

in somebody else's name"

"About you and me.

All through the night"

"You're away too long.

It's so difficult..."

"to just sign and be contented"

"When will the separation end?"

"Come every day to me and

turn the night into a day"

"Without you, this wind from the east

seems silly"

"It rushed into my scarf'

"You also come and embrace me

like this wind, some day"

"Come and embrace me,

like this wind..."

"Listen, dear friend"

"If I can't sleep tomorrow,

call me to you"

"Keep my head your lap

and sing me a lullaby"

"Hug me to you under the sheet of the night,

on the sly"

"Where even the moon can't approach.

Behind a cloud"

Dina, unlike me, is not so quiet.

Mani Ratnam

Gopala Ratnam Subramaniam (born 2 June 1956), commonly known by his screen name Mani Ratnam, is an Indian film director, screenwriter, and producer who predominantly works in Tamil cinema. The Government of India honoured him with the Padma Shri, acknowledging his contributions to film in 2002. Despite being born into a film family, Mani Ratnam did not develop any interest towards films when he was young. Upon completion of his post graduation in management, he started his career as a consultant. He entered the film industry through the 1983 Kannada film Pallavi Anu Pallavi. The failure of his subsequent films would mean that he was left with fewer offers. However, his fifth directorial outing, Mouna Ragam (1986), established him as a leading filmmaker in Tamil cinema. He followed that with Nayakan (1987). Mani Ratnam is well known for his "Terrorism trilogy" consisting of Roja (1992), Bombay (1995), and Dil Se.. (1998). Mani Ratnam is married to Tamil actress Suhasini and has a son with her. He has won several film awards, including six National Film Awards, six Filmfare Awards South and three Bollywood Filmfare Awards. more…
