Vivah Page #5

I wanted to come

Why did I take so long to

realize this, Poonam?

I even missed seeing.. you've worn

that necklace for me tonight

Do you know Poonam,

since I came to Som Sarovar, I've been

wanting to call you to the terrace

But every time, I held back

I wish I'd known that I had

the right to call you anytime

But what a time to come to know,

when it's time..

to go

Poonam, people spend lifetimes

looking for love

Today, I look in wonderment

at this custom of marriage..

in which, that love has

come to me, as a gift

Suddenly I become so

special to someone,

what I eat, what I wear, suddenly

is more important..

to somebody else than me, myself.

Suddenly you and l..

I have the right..

to this liberty of beholding your

beauty to my heart's content,

of gazing upon you, in endless love

My love..

My love..

my heart calls out in answer..

You have the right

You have the right

You have the right

Darkening, melting, the night

is slowly deepening..

giving in to love's music ;

a romance, slowly blossoming

In the music of my bangles,

what is the lyric, my love?

What message does the language

of my bangles speak?

To keep you awake all night,

I have the right

to steal upon your beauty,

I have the right

My love..

My love..

my heart calls out in answer

You have the right

You have the right

You have the right

Poonam, how do you come to know

these smallest things about me?

How did you find out about my cold?

Whenever you get a cold,

you do this..

How?

Do it again

Tomorrow time will distance us,

but not for a moment, shall

I be able to forget you

Your face, your smile,

in memories of your beautiful face,

your endearing smile..

to suffer in your absence,

I have the right

To yearn to meet you, I have the right

My love..

My love..

my heart calls out in answer..

you have the right

You have the right

You have the right

I have the right

You have the right

Rahul, quickly get inside the car

Got to leave..

Five months on, there'll be no need

to make excuses about water

our wedding's that far away

Until then, I cannot ask you to

keep this mobile phone to talk up,

because you'll consider it improper

All-day-chat on the net is out,

so like nice boys do, I'll write

you a bunch of letters

And yes, I'll dial you up on

your ancestral black phone

Listen,

stay away from anything icy. You

just got over a nasty cold

Not even cold water

Anything else?

Prem, hurry. We'll get late

My love..

My love..

my heart calls out to you..

I have the right

I have the right

I have the right

Good morning, Aunt Maria

Congratulations Prem, you've

been given a promotion,

from factory to office.

- Thank you and look what I've got..

only for you.. from Som Sarovar,

delicious and wholesome grapes

A simple gift, I hope you will accept

accept and.. (ln chaste Hindi)

Not to get stuck, Hindi

is a very kind language,

you're free to use words

from any other language

Accept and please oblige.

- Thank you

That's the way Prem, first in

the office, sharp at 9 am

Engaged to marry, now work, only work

Concentrate, focus

Munim, let's start making preparations

for the wedding right away

Go to Mr Joshi, talk to

the tent-makers. - Sure

We'll put up the bridegroom's party in

Bansilal's hotel, not at Temple-lnn

Birju, this task is yours.

- Done

Look, we should leave nothing undone

And Bitto, compile the list of

invitees on the computer, quickly

The job of painting the house

should be done in time

Not in a marriage-hall.. we're

having the wedding at home

They're coming from Delhi.

- We'll do a good job

Take a look around

Back from college?

I was waiting for you

Of these silver coins,

which looks nice?..

.. I want to give every

guest a memento

I know Sister's choice. This one

Great! It's my choice too

You too make a choice, Rama

Why do you even have to ask

me, give everything away

Maa, why do you always talk like that

? Babuji only wants your opinion

Don't you dare talk back at me

Bitto.. get along with

what you got to do

The kind of wedding you're dreaming

of, do you know what it'll cost?

Yes, I know

Relatives we haven't seen

in years, are being invited

Confectioners, musicians, florists,

being called in from all over,

Iike you've nothing to look

at beyond this wedding

My brother and his wife's

every dream will come true

You remember only their dreams

Do you remember, even your daughter

is waiting to get married?

I've spoken about Chhoti

to so many people

But because she is dark,

I find no suitors

Worse now, if we can't provide for

her dowry, then she's had it

But why would you worry for that?

To pay for Poonam's wedding you

pawned off our Som Sarovar house

Now, sell even this

house if you will!

Who is it?

Bitto?

What happened, my child?

I don't want to marry

Bitto.. what are you saying?

Come and sit here

Sit.. what's the matter?

Uncle..

Uncle..

..you built brick by brick..

the house in Som Sarovar

And you have mortgaged

it for this wedding?

Chhoti is yet to marry! I'll

never be able to forgive myself

Chhoti will have just as fine a

wedding.. I give you my word

For every father, a daughter's

wedding is..

.. a celebration of a

great wish come true

Will you not let my wish come true?

Listen.. a letter from

Harishchandra has arrived

You want to hear it?

One second

He writes,

With great pleasure, I remember

staying with you at Som Sarovar

In Madhupur, we became related. In

Som Sarovar, we struck a friendship

In terms of relationships,

such a quick promotion

All credit goes to your

endearing nature

Having known you, I can

tell with conviction,

that you have already embarked upon

the preparations for the wedding

A thousand responsibilities entail

in a daughter's wedding

Have no worries of any sort,

we are one family

Bitto, when you have such a fine

father-in-law, what's my worry?

Now, one little smile

I have good news for you

In today's mail, perhaps..

there's a letter for you

Bitto, someone far away.. is

waiting for you, weaving dreams

Go on.. fill in the colors

It's four in the morning

and I've no sleep

I reach the office

before anyone else

But it's another matter that

I am not able to do any work

But today, I put in

lots of hard work,..

.. matching color schemes

for each costume..

we'll wear for our wedding ceremonies

the soiree, reception, dinners

I had coffees after

coffee to stay fresh

But the only things that remain

fresh, are memories of you

Poonam, I can't tell the

source of this enthusiasm,

but I'm propelled to

achieve in life,..

.. to prove myself worthy,

for your sake

Coming, coming

Bitto, your phone

Who is it?

Perhaps.. a friend

Birjoo. Hey, Birjoo

Guess what happened, just guess

Half an hour ago, we were in a

meeting, me, my brother, the managers

A Japanese multinational corporation

has offered us a deal,

a new line of business. It'll be a

great thing for our organization

They want us in Tokyo next week,
