"Chuck up every woe"
"Chuck it, I'm with you"
"Try and smile once"
"Let hues of the Spring blossom once again"
"Sing a new song, strike a new melody"
"It’s a new season, it’s a new day"
"Chuck it..."
"chuck every woe"
"Chuck it, I'm with you"
"Unleash new joys, sing a new rhapsody"
"Let loose your moorings ride new waves of ecstasy"
"Get the bounce on your feet let dance the sands at your feet"

"It’s the only life you ever had through twists and turns, good or bad"
"Hug every moment, get life’s feel. Smile, life’s joys you can steal"
What are you doing? My bags...
I don’t run a hotel.
If you're living with me, you’ll socialize with me
If you're seeing only Rhea find someplace else
Out you go. you're not staying with me
These dramatics don’t suit you. Open the door
Spending so much time with a girl doesn’t suit you either
By the way, is it serious?
What an awkward monologue with a door.
On one condition. You’ll introduce me to Rhea
Rhea has invited us to lunch tomorrow
The door was open?
You think I'm a bad dad who’ll lock his son out in the cold?
I'm a bad boy
Excuse me...
Is Karan in?
I am Arjun Kapoor. Good day. - Good day. I'm Nicole
Welcome
Namaste. - Namaste
So you are Karan"s"bau"ji"... - "Bau"ji"...?
Myself Mrs. Parminder Prakash. You can call me Bobby
I’d rather call you Dimple, the actress who played Bobby
Your Bau"ji is very colourful, Karan. - Dad...
Flowers for my Umrao Jaan. - Lovely flowers. Nice boy
I wish I had carried those flowers
Please come in
Do come inside
Nice house. - Thank you
So you’ve taken after your father
Son...
I want to see Rhea married again
You ought to talk to my mother
She organizes weddings
Silly, I didn't mean that
You aren’t talking about me...? - I love my daughter dearly
Would I ever want her to marry someone like you?
Thank God. I was scared
Life is meant to be lived ...to the fullest
I know what loneliness means
At least I had Rhea
After I'm gone, who stays with Rhea?
Everyone of us needs someone...
For company, love, support
But I have a feeling That Rhea will refuse to agree
That’s why she is living here. But whom will she find here?
But son, if we can find a nice boy I think it’ll work out
So you're looking for someone conservative, homely...
Because interesting boys like you Never make nice husbands
What happened uncle?
Nothing, just remembered someone
I met her a few years ago. She’s very beautiful
The only beauty I could never capture In my camera
nor into my life
I should not be asking, but... - Then don’t ask
Come in, I'll tell you
I was just back from London after a course in photography
Then I met Anju
Anju’s world was very different from mine.
She was plain Simple girl. With a strong mind
That’s the quality in her that sets her apart
You may have conquered the world, but...
We married
To make each other happy, initially we made our compromises
Like where-are-you-going, who-is-she? Maybe I was not prepared for marriage
Afterwards questions that had never been raised cropped up
I guess I was not ready for marriage.
With time, there was more work, more quarrels. In a fit of rage...
I took up a six-month assignment in America
She asked not a question, I gave no answers
For six months I waited for a call from her;
maybe she waited for mine
Then six months became a year and years became ages.
On one count I'm grateful to her
She never let Karan feel the distance between us
I don’t know why I'm telling you this
...I never even confided in myself
Neither to me
Wish you had tried at least once...
So neither have you been able to forgive me
I forgave you long ago, Dad.
But I never got over what you did
Maybe you ought to say sorry to someone else
You must think I'm evil
No one’s evil. Evil are the times that befall
you're saying I’ve fallen into evil times
There you are. Come inside. I don’t serve a bad lunch
Sure... - Out there it’s colder than Amritsar
I never could bring up this topic with my dad
If you tell anyone I cried
The one with the dog?
you're incorrigible!
I wonder what her mother’s like. - What...?
Rhea, father and son are incorrigible
Let’s go in.
You aren’t dressed yet? Not going to the airport? Get dressed
Spare me. - Why?
I can’t bid goodbyes
Getting late, I should make a move
Remember, we met at the airport
After that first meeting...
Of course not
That’s why you tried to kiss me
Only tried?
Then I hated you so much all because...
you didn't know how to talk, you had no respect for women...
you were so ill-mannered and irritating
After all these years you remember everything about me?
Did you hit upon a story for your Hum-Tum?
I have something in mind. In the end who knows Hum-Tum may fall in love
You know Karan, I didn't think I would ever admit this to you
We’re going to see each other very soon. Guess why?
Because though life’s a long while
we have very little time
Are we going to be friends now?
Friends? But you always said you’d never make friends with girls
Pretty girls are the exception
And I am not pretty! - When did I say that?
Are you saying I'm pretty?
Rhea is coming after 3 days? - Yes
Whose friend is she, yours or mine? - Mine
And am I your chauffeur or secretary? - Neither
Then why do you want me to pick her up from the airport?
Because I want you to marry her
You want me to marry Rhea...? - Exactly
Come on Mihir, you're perfect for each other
If Rhea is perfect why don’t you marry her?
I can’t marry Rhea. - Why?
I'm the sort a mother would warn her daughter about
I know Rhea. She needs a mature, experienced guy
In three days, Rhea is coming. Pick her up at the airport
If you don’t like her you needn’t see her ever again
When did I say yes? - You didn't say no
I can’t believe it ...I'm doing your bidding
If Rhea realizes that I'm introducing the two of you
After the wedding, can I tell her we’re married?
Not bad! Already contemplating the marriage?
Rhea is putting up with her aunt. She knows the address
Come on, I'm busy. Hang up
Australia fields so well even in video games
Yes... you...?
Karan’s friend. Not chauffeur so...
So you are Mihir. Myself Mrs. Parminder Prakash
How handsome you're just like Karan described you
Karan described...?
No... he didn't. He only said Mihir would receive us in his stead
You couldn’t tell me that before? - Such a long flight. I'm at wits" end
Something cropped up suddenly. Karan is busy... so I had to come
Suddenly? But you said Karan informed my Mummy about you...
The car is parked outside. Shall we...?
Which car do you have?
Just asking, because we’ve got so much luggage
There’s something about India
The country has a smell of it’s own...
Look, kids defecating along the curb
Nice to be here
Son what do you do? - I run a business in computers
I see. How much turnover?
Rhea is also a computer buff- Really?
Not much, except office computing
Karan says you run a store in Paris. - Not store. Boutique of Indian designs
Boutique is a store, no...?
You come into India and you grab a paper! Always reading
Times of India carries Karan’s Hum-Tum
This Karan is... - Yes Karan...
Yes this Karan is...
I just joined the chorus
In Bombay you don’t disconnect phones at night?
you're angry? Okay I'm going home
I'm standing outside your house
I'm famished. Can I find something to eat?
Mamma is right. Your country is your own
Who told you to live in Paris?
If I stayed in India, everyone would’ve begun to insist that I marry again
After Sameer died, I wasn’t interested anymore
You can’t stop loving someone because he’s dead. I'll always love Sameer
But does it mean that you can’t pick up the threads of your life?
True. But to start afresh one needs a good companion
Not someone in an arranged marriage. - What if you might find someone?
I think arranged marriages work
Let’s pretend I'm here to look up an arranged match
Pretences at 2 am!
Hello Rhea I'm Champak Bhumiya
Your aunt’s niece’s daughter" friend speaks highly of you
She says we’re perfect for each other. Made for each other
Not Champak Bhumiya. If a genuine, smart guy...
asks you whether after so many years in Paris...
will you be able to adjust to Bombay life? With me?
Okay what were you asking? - After Paris...
will you be able to adjust in Bombay? - More important than the city...
is adjustment between people. If two people are happy together...
Bombay or Paris, what difference?
After the marriage, will you work? - You don’t want me to work afterwards?
I think every woman should work. Not as a pass time. Serious work. Like you
Now what about kids. - What about kids...?
Not you. Aren’t you supposed to ask me? Whether I love kids?
Yes, do you love kids? - Of course
First I want a daughter. Beautiful, intelligent. Like you
I'll make a fine daddy
If I find someone like me flirting with her, I'll break his legs
You think that will make you a fine daddy? - Look you’ll make a fine mother
What harm if I spoil the kids a little bit?
So I do all the hard work and you have all the fun?
Yes, look at it from my point of view and it’s a wonderful marriage
A puppy is all it’ll take to complete the family portrait
Let’s call him Tommy. - Awful name
Okay Tommy. On one condition. You take Tommy out for walks
I'll only feed him morsels from my plate. "Tommy, take"
Apart from spoiling the kids and Tommy what else will you do?
What else is left to be done? I'll live happily ever after...
with my kids and Tommy ...and of course, you. Sorry
So I come after the kids and Tommy.
With you. - I come after the kids and Tommy?
Mention me after the kids and Tommy
and I'll hack you into small bits...
and I'll feed you to Tommy. - Okay I'm sorry. No more kids-or-Tommy
I'll always love you more than anyone else
See how easy it is to discuss an arranged marriage...?
We almost got married
How are you? - How are you?
You look gorgeous. - I ought to be telling you that
Sit. How about coffee, tea, juice...? - Just coming from our place
And you know Mamma never lets me leave before breakfast
How is she?
But Rhea, these formalities...
Actually Karan’s dad has sent it for you
He’s fine
Rhea, I'm the one who makes your Ma laugh all the time
And you make my Mom upset as soon as you step in
Don’t fall for what she says
I hope they send 150 pieces. I'll pay after I’ve checked the consignment
If I find a one-piece short in the shipment... - God! One piece...
how much poorer will it make you, how much richer will he become?
You women are forever cribbing over one Rupee, one potato, one coriander leaf...
why fight over trivia? - It isn’t about money. It’s principle
But why discuss principles with you?
Yes Mihir, come over, park the car
Mihir is coming? - Yes... I forgot to ask you...
how did you find Mihir? - Okay
But what is Mihir doing here? - I thought we’d have lunch together
Here he is
So how was your shopping?
I wasn’t shopping. It was business
I'm hungry. Where are we going for lunch?
What happened? - Lunch reminds me...
I have to meet Diana. - Who’s this lady?
Just a friend. Met her a week ago. Strictly business
Not your first lunch date with Diana? - Lunch, yes. For the first time
Couple of days ago we went out for dinner
You go ahead and have lunch.
I'll see you afterwards for coffee. Got to run
I know a great joint for grilled fish.
I don’t like grilled fish
Where to? China garden? Delhi Durbar? - I forgot... Mamma has cooked lunch
Will you drop me home?
Next to your place there’s a Dosa Diner
Today’s my birthday
Strange! Karan never told me. - Karan must’ve forgotten
Strange, you never reminded me it’s your birthday
Sorry, I forgot that you forget. - Never mind. Eat cake
Something tells me I'm forgetting something
Enough of your apologies! You forget that you invited me?
I waited for you for ages
Don’t ask me how I know you're Rhea
What sort of birthday...? No champagne?
Mihir you didn't tell me what you do.
- I run a computer company. Micro India
We design computer systems
Really? All the computers in my office were sourced from you?
Wiz Entertainment. - you're Diana Fernandez?
No wonder your voice sounded familiar.
We’ve spoken several times on the phone
You actually spoke to her or you heard
of her conversations over the phone?
After so many conversations now we meet... amazing
How amazing
Karan, what a boring song. - Awful song
To that song, for the first time I danced with a girl
We danced pretty close
Just let them be. - She’s a...
How strange. For the many times that
they talked business, they never met
One chance meeting and they’ve taken to each other
Somewhat too fast. Who’ll say it’s their first meeting?
Sometimes the first look is enough. Sometimes it takes so many meetings
What...? - True
Yes
Your last chance ...no second last chance
I mean Mihir and Diana...
you know... Mihir and Diana, they’re so unlike
I don’t know how they liked each other
They’re so different
It’s widely accepted that
the more varied the match the better it is for the relationship
She makes up for her husband’s flaws;
he makes up for his wife’s shortcomings
Which makes for a perfect marriage. - Rhea, you ought to be writing a book
Principles of Marriage by Rhea
Tonight I'm happy... elated
Guess why?
I just got engaged Mihir and I...
and the person instrumental in getting us together... is...
If Rhea liked Mihir, if Mihir liked Rhea...
then you and I wouldn’t have been here today
Karan tried his best to make Rhea and Mihir fall in love
Then I materialized I guess I got lucky
So... cheers to Rhea once again Oh Mihir, I love you
Please give me a chance to explain
You’ve no right to scorn me
Scorn? I was arranging your marriage.
I went away to Paris to avoid this
You know it... because out there no one would be arranging weddings for me
I don’t get it! Why won’t people leave a girl in peace until she’s married?
Is marriage the sole purpose of life for us?
Without a man in her life a woman’s life is incomplete?
What tangent are you getting at? - And you Karan...?
I never expected you to behave like this
Over something so little... - It’s nothing so little
Not everything in life is a joke
So what now? Do we sit down for a quarrel?
Forget it You don’t get what I'm saying
I thought you and Mihir... - What about Mihir and I...?
How can you think like this? Did you ever ask me what I want?
I only want to see you happy
You think I'll be happy with Mihir? - Will you be happy with a guy like me?
Now why are you quite?
Love is the problem, isn’t it?
Karan was right. A boy and a girl can never be friends
Because love always comes in the way
How long will you hide your feelings from each other?
If you expect Karan to make the first move, forget it
That fool doesn’t even realize he’s in love
No one knows Karan more than I
Every year he forgets my birthday, but
each little word about you, he remembers
If not love what else is it?
Loves you dearly
True love is so hard to come by it happens only once in a lifetime
To have found this joy twice you're lucky
Simple. I'm not a nice guy
Not a nice guy and when it comes to girls...
first class scoundrel. - He’s one of us
You get it?
For the first time in my life I wanted to do good for a girl
Did I do anything wrong? - No
I did. - You did...? - Big mistake I did
Big mistake... I broke her heart
The tears... welled up from her heart.
I made her cry
Made her cry?
When her tears stream down here...
why do I ache in here? Her eyes, her tears
And here it aches?
Is this any justice? - No
Oh yes it’s justice
This is justice
If the burden of both tears and pain
were hers, what justice would it be?
Were her tears and her pain to be mine, justice would be done.
Understood?
Understood. - What can you understand?
She says I don’t understand anything.
If I never understood anything... how come I understand
I'm no match for her
Understand?
Understood. She’s coming for you
She isn’t after me- Behind you
Hide the glasses. No drinking in front of a lady
But I can drink because I'm not a nice guy. Pass my glass
Karan, come home
Rhea, I'm not a nice guy
Not nice
"Let our sighs caress"
"Let subdued heartbeats race"
"This moment craves... a tryst..."
"yours and mine"
"Your eyes let me enchant"
"In your arms take me as I relent"
"This moment craves... a tryst..."
"yours and mine"
"Let our sighs caress"
"Slumber’s caress smears the kohl in your eyes"
"Oh was it a fleeting carnival of dreams...?"
"Let desire consume us body and soul"
"Leave yourself to rock amid abandon and ecstasy"
"This moment craves... a tryst..."
"yours and mine"
"Caress me..."
"like symphony’s strings"
"Darkness hidden in your tresses..."
"let loose, liberate my nights"
"Wait till night’s veil slips away from her bosom"
"Wait for dew to moisten her petals"
"But this moment craves... a tryst..."
"yours and mine"
Calm down
Don’t take God’s name in vain
Where’s Rhea? - She isn’t coming
You had a fight with her?
I left it in the car
You don’t say shit inside a church
We were supposed to come together, no? I waited for you
I got busy over here
"I can’t even face her"
"Idiot, even his tie isn’t matching"
"What must she think of me?"
"Why did we take so long to know each other’s minds?"
"Whatever happened was wrong"
"Why does it feel so perfect?"
"I’ve lost her forever"
"I don’t want to lose him, ever"
"Is this the end of our relationship...?"
"The beginning of a new relationship...?"
"How can I start this conversation? Please, say something Karan"
Whatever happened should never have come to pass
I mean, I should never have done that
We ought to get married
Yes we ought to get married- Why?
Why do you want to marry me Karan?
Don’t get me wrong Rhea - you're getting me wrong
Do you feel that whatever happened was wrong?
Yes Rhea. The mistake was mine
Then we ought not to commit another mistake
We ought not to make another mistake by marrying for the wrong reasons
Don’t get me wrong. - Enough Karan
You need not say anything more
Need not say anything more
From the outset I never liked that Mihir
He was always evading questions How annoying
What makes you laugh? - I'm not laughing Bobby
You’ve been laughing at me forever on the sly. Sarcastically
Where are you going with those Huge bags? Our flight is next week
What happened, my child?
I'm leaving
I don’t know where ...for how long
For four years I kept you away from your country, your relatives
This time I want to go away alone
I want to come to terms with my life, with myself, on my own
Let me be on my own Mamma, please
Rhea my child...
home for me is wherever you are
I'll never even ask you why we’re going or where
But don’t tear yourself away from me
I'm coming with you. Period
Wait, I'm coming
My darling baby
God can’t be everywhere. That’s why He made mothers
Have you finished your breakfast?
What’s the matter? It’s been two days
and you're completely uncommunicative
And there’s no news of Rhea. Have the two of you had a fight?
This boy is too much
you're not listening, you aren’t talking,
you aren’t answering phones, doorbells
Just like your Daddy
Whose son is he after all?
You...?
Can I come in?
What are you doing here? - Coming directly from the airport...
to see you. How have you been? - I'm fine
It shows. How’s Rhea? - What do you want to ask?
I want to know why you're running away from your life. Like I did
What...? - In my personal life...
I took a lot of wrong decisions which I have come to regret
I had the loveliest, the most loving wife in the whole world
But I never could understand her
Finally I realized how much I had been given and what I had lost
Every father wants his son to follow in his footsteps.
I must be... the first father in the whole world who prays everyday...
may my son never become like me
But sometimes when I look at you...
I fear I may have passed on to you my legacy of failures.
I fear... you may lose faith in relationships because of me
But then I look at Rhea and my fears are allayed
I feel she’s the one who can extricate my son from the orbs of my shadows
Rhea called me in Paris yesterday to tell me that she’s leaving forever
She’d say no more but I realized
you’ve proven that you're my son
No one else could ever break a heart so full of love
Dad I'm in love with Rhea. But how can she love a guy like me
It’s what we fail to grasp about women. How can they love morons like us?
17 years ago, I broke someone’s heart; someone I ought to have worshipped
God never gave me a second chance
you're about to make the same mistake.
Know it, He won’t give you a next chance
Karan, where are you going?
After all, I'm your son Dad. In matters of the heart I'm slow on the uptake
But now that I know, I'm not wasting 17 years trying to find her
The second chance God never gives. We ought to seize it ourselves...
like my son is doing
Like our son...?
"For 3 hours we’ve been only 2 inches apart
and we don’t know each other"
"You rifled my bag?"
"Why must you spend on my tickets? - Yes, how are we related?"
"you're organizing the wedding and you don’t know who the bride is?"
"Sameer is no longer part of my life"
"But to start afresh one needs a good companion"
"In the end Hum-Tum might end up falling in love"
"I only want to see you happy. - You think I'll be happy with Mihir?"
"Will you be happy with a guy like me?"
"Mention me after the kids and Tommy
and I'll hack you into small bits... and I'll feed you to Tommy."
"Okay I'm sorry. No more kids-or-Tommy"
"I'll always love you more than anyone else"
"Sometimes the first look is enough.
Sometimes it takes so many meetings"
"Words..."
"my eyes spoke..."
"had you read..."
"you’d never lose me..." "you would’ve found love"
"Wait..."
"if that word... you ever said..."
"in loneliness, we wouldn’t walk"
"Once a moment craved... a tryst..."
"yours and mine"
Only problem with Hum-Tum... without you I'm incomplete
Many relationships fall apart because people can’t express themselves...
they can’t talk their hearts out. If you got something to tell someone...
just go ahead and say it. Don’t wait, it might be too late
Rhea couldn’t understand my love because...
I was the one who couldn’t fathom my love. Now she’s gone...
and I never got a chance to express myself. Out of this book...
I seek no riches, no fame. I only want to tell her...
how much I love her
You believe you’ll meet her again?
She will meet me. I'm sure... because life’s a long while
Rain in January...?
It doesn’t rain in January
It was bound to happen, yes Karan? Because whenever we’ve met...
something always happens
You read the book?
How did you like it?
Reminded me of a friend
Ever told you about this friend of mine?
Never
I met him long years ago
And you kept seeing him...
till he became my best friend
Then he fell in love with you. Why did you walk away?
Because he didn't stop me
I don’t like your friend one bit
Not a word against my friend
Then what do I say?
What you've never said
That I'll love you more than the kids and Tommy?
You better! Else I'll cut you into little bits...
I told you, there’s one story about us. - Is this the end of our story?
No, now’s when our story begins
Where are you going? You didn't hear what he said?
Story isn’t over
Who’s this guy?
Why is his cot so close to my daughter's?
He’s a new-born! - You never know these guys
No sooner than they’re born they start flirting with pretty girls
Saw that...?
He’s using kids" sign language to call my daughter
If he’s like that I wonder what his mother’s like
When did you see his mother? - Just a joke
When did you see his mother?
Look, your baby is cute.
When did you see his mother? - I saw his dad. Doesn’t resemble him
I thought he must resemble his mother
You and I...
