Years later both Raju and Guddi meet each, but now Guddi is called Seema, and Raju is called Chander, their real names, both fall in love with each other, without knowing they are childhood friends.

"Take Guddi, eat grams."

"Why are you eating, one by one?

Eat all together, just like me."

"if I do that, they'll get over.

From where will you bring more? "

Why? Didn't your

father get anything today?

He hasn't come as yet.

When he comes he'll bring

many things. He told me so.

"C'mon, at least

you have someone."

I have neither

father nor mother.

"You must be feeling

very sad, isn't it?"

Why should I feel sad?

You and your father are there.

Both of you are my very own.

"Raju, we'll go

to the fair tomorrow."

I'll take money

from father. - Guddi?

There's father. - Have you

both seen the film? -Yes.

How was it? - Good.

"Look, today I've brought a

lot of food for both of you."

And I brought this

cake too for you.

"Raju, how many papers did you

sell, son? - All of them."

"Did you sell all? Good.

Come, have food. "

"Papa, we want to go to

the fair. We want the money"

"Yes, yes, we'll surely go to

the fair, tomorrow."

"I've earned quite some, today."

"Enjoy the fair, as much as

you want, tomorrow. "

"Let's go, to some

solitary place."

"O friend, let's go,

to some solitary place."

As I am scared we

may get separated..

"Scared that we may separate

in this fair of the world.

O dear friend!

This childhood

is so lovely..

"Innocent as

the blue skies.

This childhood

is so lovely..

"Innocent as

the blue skies.

Let's swing and

touch the clouds..

..Let's swing and

touch the clouds..

We don't want to live in

all this mess of the world.

"Let's go, to some

solitary place."

"O friend, let's go,

to some solitary place."

These balloons fly without

spreading any wings..

..And they look

so very lovely.

These balloons fly without

spreading any wings..

..And they look

so very lovely.

Hold the string tight lest

may slip out of hands.

Hold the string tight lest

may slip out of hands.

In this crowded

fair of life.

"Let's go, to some

solitary place."

"O friend, let's go,

to some solitary place."

Dreams of future

blossom in our eyes..

..And our breaths are fragrant

with the fragrance of flowers.

Dreams of future

blossom in our eyes..

..And our breaths are fragrant

with the fragrance of flowers.

You are my

dream of tomorrow..

..Whom I can call

my very own.

You are my

dream of tomorrow..

..Whom I can call

my very own.

We have to walk together

in this fair of life.

"Let's go, to

some solitary place."

"O friend, let's go,

to some solitary place."

O dear friend!

"Where had you been? I've been

searching for you, for so long."

What is all this

that you brought?

"Thief, thief.

- Catch him, catch him."

"This is the same thief,

who has stolen my purse."

"Bloody pickpocket,

take out my purse."

"What are you talking about, sir?

What purse, which purse. "

"You are lying, you rascal.

I myself saw you pushing."

"Sir, my children were

lost in the fair.."

"..and looking for them, I was

going around, here and there."

"Rascal, you're lying.

I'll smash your teeth."

"Police, police."

"Papa, papa."

"Hey mister, why are you

troubling this respectful man?"

This poor person is a family man.

Does he appear a thief to you?

"My purse, my purse.

- Thief, thief."

"Go, the thief is there."

These diamonds that see

are valued at two million.

And these are the

insurance papers.

I insure all my jewellery.

"The diamonds are first

class, Mr. Haridas."

it's just that the price?

"Mr. Advani, I'm quoting a

very reasonable price."

You show the goods

to your party.

"If they agree to the deal, ok

or else I've another customer."

"Ok, I'll show these

diamonds to my party. "

The boss forgot

his cigarette case.

"Thief, where did he go?"

"Mr. Sardarji, what did you think

while naming your truck, Anarkali?"

I never think. I've just

named it as Anarkali.

"But Sardarji, why do you compare

this truck to Anarkali?"

The legend of Anarkali

is a romantic legend.

"Oh! Brother, there is no

difference between.."

"..a lovers' meeting,

and the frontier mail."

"How is that, Sardarji?"

"Love, does not, differentiate

between castes."

Frontier mail doesn't

differentiate as per caste.

"Just as, everybody boards

the frontier mail."

"So also, you and Lalaji

have boarded on Anarkali."

And I always board it.

"What are you

saying, Sardarji?"

"As the topic has come up,

listen about Anarkali too. "

"Sure, sardarji. "

The sister of Heer was more

beautiful than Anarkali.

Ranjha took Heer.

And king Akbar

took Anarkali.

Yes.

"And in the battle of Panipat,

king Jehangir slapped thrice.."

..and took Anarkali away.

"Ok, Ok. And then?"

"Yes and then, poor

Akbar cried in Agra.. "

"..on the banks of the river

Jamuna, naked and starving."

And he made the Taj Mahal

in Anarkali's memory.

"I've increased my knowledge

a lot, hitchhiking from you."

"As the topic of knowledge has

cropped up, Mr. Maulvi.."

.. then listen to this one.

I am a B. Sc.- B. Sc.?

"Yes, B. Sc. Bishan

Singh Chadda."

Reduce the speed.

"What are you doing, Sardarji?

- Don't worry, God is happy. "

Do you know who I am?

"Enough sardarji, I wish to

alight here. - Ok."

Your Anarkali has stopped

after covering a long distance.

That's why I've

named it Anarkali.

"I apply the brakes at Delhi,

and it stops at Agra."

Two plates of Ientil;

fry it nicely.

"When Khalsa rules, no

one else will remain."

"Greetings, to the

government. - Government?"

"The government, that takes

care of every minute."

"You're always alert, and we're

always concerned with you.."

..and not with Delhi.

"That's why, you are

our government."

Sardarji? - Yes.

Did you give a lift

to anybody recently?

"I didn't give, but my Anarkali

has definitely given a lift."

Why? Is there

any trouble? -Yes.

We are looking out for a thief

who was on a truck like this.

"Oh! Government sir, then I'll

be of great use to you. "

"Amongst the two people,

who were on my truck.. "

..one was very talkative.

"And when he alighted,

he greeted me too."

"And the other person,

he was very strange."

Strange? How strange?

"Strange, very strange. "

"I mean, he alighted from the

vehicle, like a thief.. "

..and ran away

like a thief.

"Government sir,

listen to me."

"Go down the left of the bridge,

which is a minute behind."

And catch that Lalaji

with the muffler.

"If he doesn't turn out to be

thief, punish me instead of him."

Turn the jeep.

Stop or I'll shoot.

"Don't worry Guddi, I'm there,

I'll sell more newspapers."

"I'll sell race books, I'll work

hard, but I'll take care of you?"

"Raju, Raju."

"Raju, take your money, son. I'll

give you more papers tomorrow. "

"Bravo, you have started

working hard, nowadays."

"Try your luck, brothers.

Take Ten for one, Ten for one."

"Come play, Ten for one.

Try your luck."

"You'll get, if you play."

"Queen, open the card.

Go on; take your hand, off."

You dare to play.

Open the card; don't cheat.

"Queen, give me Rs.10.

Get out."

"Don't cheat, or I'll kill you.

Give me Rs.10."
