Udaan Page #6

What good is your might?

Let the light

in your heart overcome

Break away from the night...

Master the tides...

So that the seas may salute you.

Happy birthday to you.

You're 1 8 years old now.

You've become a man, which

is why l'm giving this to you.

This was my grandfather's watch.

He gave it to my father

who then gave it to me..

..when I turned 18.

See that you continue

the tradition.

Living one gasp at a time...

Your boat is helpless and tired.

Do you think you're the

Only one who has problems?

Are we all sitting on

a lotus flower?

You don't have the Guts to

stand up to your father.

So just sit here with us,

drink, write and cry like a girl.

Though the currents

are against you...

lt's time to make a difference.

We're having a blast in Bombay.

Remember Vikram's papa's restaurant?

Vikram convinced him to

let him run it for a month.

Uncle agreed. So Benoy and l

went to help. And guess what?

Profits doubled in our first month!

Really, it's great. The restaurant

is ours. Uncle retired.

We work and eat goodies all day.

Girls are actually talking to us.

Benoy got laid!

His girlfriend hangs

with us all day..

If you were here you'd be so happy.

Come to Bombay.

Hello.

Rohan?

Rohan, are you there?

Listen, I have to go,

I'll call later.

Wait, talk to Benoy and Vikram..

ROHAN!!!!

He was so drunk

That he couldn't

even stand straight.

The car?

Buy a new one.

Where?

Not him. The car.

When do you leave

for boarding school?

Tomorrow.

Good Luck.

Where are you going?

I'm leaving home.

Why?

Are you unhappy with my marriage?

No. Not at all.

I'm delighted.

Your frustrations will

come out somewhere else.

And Arjun won't need to

go to the hospital again.

Excuse me.

Rohan.

You f***er..

I'm going to Bombay.

What will you do there?

I'll work in Vikram's restaurant.

I'll write.

I'll clean toilets.

But I won't ever come back.

Though our feet be chained,

Dreams will ever float free.

Even tender sprouts break

through the mighty earth.

Hopeful hearts can hold no fear..

When they listen to

their inner voice.

Hi.

Sir's gone to get an autorickshaw.

Let him go.

You're coming with me.

Sir asked me to wait here.

Forget what Sir said.

Do you want to go

to boarding school?

You will come with me

wherever l go.

I'll be back in a moment.

How do you cage the morning rays?

How do you cage someone's thoughts?

Just as soon as birds grow wings,

They soar high up in the sky.

How do you cage the morning rays?

How do you cage someone's thoughts?

Ready?

Just as soon as birds grow wings,

They soar high up in the sky.

Freedom..

Can never be asked for.

Freedom..

Seize it and live forever free.

How do you cage someone's thoughts?

Just as soon as birds grow wings,

They soar high up in the sky.

I'm taking Arjun with me.

If l leave him here he will become

..another version of you.

One of you is enough for this world.

You will never

understand why this happened.

Because it's a word you've

never known or experienced..

Love.

Please don't try to find us.

If you come within

a 1 00 kilometers of us,

The police will know you beat Arjun.

Legally, it's a criminal offence.

Arjun can be a lot

more than just your slave.

He needs a family, not a cage.

He needs a future, which I will make

sure he gets, whatever the cost..

Congratulations on your new wife,

your new daughter, your new life.

Your son, Rohan.

Is life over?

Or is it about to begin?

Is this nightfall?

Or is it a new dawn?

Will the future bring comfort?

Or will bring us to a crossroad?

Who knows what lies ahead..
