What are you blabbering?

I asked something

What are you asking?

About my story

Who are you?

Why are you here?

What happens in my story?

You're a thief. Throw him out

Calm down, Baba

What happens next?

- What did you come to steal?

We have no diamonds or

cures or God

Calm down, Baba

He's senile

- What happens next?

You're scared.

You ask me for your story. Coward!

Who do you fear? Who is here?

You tell me what happens next

Tell your story

What's in your heart?

What do you want?

What do I want?

Heer is in your heart but you

seek her in the wilderness

lmposter. Cheat!

Get out!

I said get out

Call the police

He's an imposter, a thief

He's gone.

- Call the police.

The story of this journey

Replete with questions

It starts with you

It ends with you

The story of this journey

The one I sought...

...sought everywhere

was deep within me

The story of this journey.

Replete with answers

A step taken towards you.

Soon we shall meet

Hi

Hello

What happened?

Nothing

You said you were leaving

I didn't. This is my father's house

Papa, can I tell you a story?

Yes, go ahead

Many years ago when India

was Partitioned

There was a man who lived

in Lahore

His name was the Hero

The fire of Partition

spread ferociously

The Hero had to bring

his family to India

He left his riches behind

In one night,

our hero became a zero

Sorry, mistake. He didn't become

a zero, he's the hero

He worked in a wood mill

He worked hard.

Started his own business,

built a beautiful house

Next came his son,

the new hero

Worked hard too,

grew the business

He got a job. Educated

his children well

Added rooms to the old house

And then came his son

Now this is our hero

He tried management,

engineering, office work

Say yes, look down,

happy and sad

One day many miles away,

between the heart and world

Our hero found a companion

Who said:
"Hi"

Our hero said:
"Hello"

The companion asked:

How are you?

Our hero said:
Fine, thank you.

How are you?

The companion asked:

Why are you talking like this?

HQW?

You sound like a machine

Meaning?

Wait. Where are you going?

I cannot stop. If I stop, I will die

Die?

lam running a race

What race do you run?

- I don't know

You don't know,

so why are you running?

Everyone is running.

So that's why I am running

Why is everyone running?

Does no one stop to ask?

What? Why?

"Whats that?"

What's that?

Why?

Our very own "Why?"

You don't know why

You seem to have

dialed the wrong number,

Forget it

What difference which race

As long as you're winning

I'm sure you always win

Come second?

No

Third?

- No

Fourth, fifth, sixth,

seventh, eighth?

Ninth?

You seemed to have

dialed the wrong number.

Train no. 721...

Stop. Forget password.

Insurance is a subject

matter of solicitation.

Please read the offer document

carefully before investing.

You're somewhere in the middle

The middle-man

Yes, I'm mediocre

You're so proud to be mediocre

Can I say something?

I don't think you're ordinary

When I'm with you I feel special

Imagine how special you are

I've never met anyone like you

Don't you think you're special?

Sorw, wrong number.

What? Did no one tell you?

That reminds the hero of something

He says:

"There was someone

who said I was special"

That's right

Who was it?

He was a snake

- A snake?

Yes! He talked rot

You're full of wonder!

A mine of diamonds

Damn imposter

Know his name?

His name was...

Chdhood

My childhood

Childhood? Meaning, brother?

Are you mad?

Childhood was a poisonous snake

Slithering in the garden

Hiding behind bushes

Hood raised, ready to strike

Destroyed him when I grew up

Crushed him underfoot

I put my foot on his damn neck

and pressed hard

Destroyed

Now it's ok. Now no one says

I am special

I can live my life comfortably now

Walk, stop, smile please, mediocre...

Nonsense! A mistake

Choose your race. See if you

come first or not

You'll come first

Guaranteed. Stop!

- I cannot stop

Look at yourself

Know who you are

One day the world will know you.

Open your eyes

I won't open my eyes, I won't stop

I'll keep running the race.

I'll keep running

I'll stay mediocre

Average. Work, stop, smile please.

So our hero ran the race for

the rest of his life

And one day he died

Story over

Why?

- What's "why?"

So how was the story?

Papa?

The end's bad?

Bad ending

It's my story. We'll change the end

This is who I am, papa.

This is who I am.

I am no good at Maths. I'm sorry

The last hero is the best.

My favourite

I'll come first in this race. I know

I know you will, son

Will you keep hugging each other?

Tell us the new end

What happens next?

No one has ever given me

such a big gift

I was so happy

But what will I do with it?

The ring will fulfill

all your heart's desires

You'll see

When souls unite,

how long can bodies stay apart?

Ranjha, wander in forest or mountain.

Befriend the wilderness

You'll find your path.

Your feet will start moving

And one day Ranjha will reach

Heer's abode

Looking forward,

to the second part of your speech.

Thank you.

The discussion on the bipolar behavior

of the metropolitan consumer..

Stay cool, be normal.

They're watching us.

Keep walking

So you got the diamond consignment?

Oh, by the way.

Don 2!

The police from 12 countries

are looking for me...

...and I am at a corporate's,

settling an old score

And you?

Me

-Yes, you

You must be someone

Me?

Mata Hari

Must have heard the name

So should I call you Mata...or Hari?

Don't call me anything,

just listen

Indeed. I have much to hear

How are you? Where were you?

Actually, I was in China, training

What training?

- Chinese torture training

In exchange for the diamond,

I'll teach you

How exciting!

- No need for that

There's need.

I know unique ways of torturing

I have changed, Tara

- You'll change again

No, I was born as Don,

got corrupted later

Let me start at the beginning

The masks you're wearing

are not yours

Step forward,

tell us what lies in your heart

Step forward,

tell us what lies in your heart

The path of your dreams...

...wi

lead you where you must go

Embrace those dreams

Tell us who you really are

Untie those shackles

You're someone else

You without boundary

Sky without limit

Be who you wish to be

You're the waves

You're the grandeur

Ladies and Gentlemen

Present...

The story teller...

Ved Vardhan Sahani.

I am convinced now

What?

You do have Teja's gold

For sure

So...

And then I thought,

dry up what's soaked

Be it female or male

Take the bait

She played a new ruse

And tricked me again

Trapped me for no reason

Curse you, O life

Listen, O beloved

My heart betrayed me

When I set eyes on you

I lost all senses

My weeping heart whispered

My eyes now speak for me

I see a new dream every day

My restless heart cries out

Don't hide behind that veil

A devoted lover...

...can only talk of love

The heart may lament

So...
