Hi Rohit
Here...? So suddenly...? What are you doing here?
Been thinking, Sanjay. Ever since I came, something or the other...
has been going wrong. - Wrong? I never noticed anything?
Nor did I, until now. But like I said...
I've been thinking. - And...?
After much deliberation, I've arrived at a conclusion
There's someone behind all this.
Someone, who's trying... very systematically, to break us up.
What are you saying?
There is someone who is determined...
not to let me marry Anjali
Really?
Who might it be?
I stopped him, I even tried to reason with him
For friendship's sake, I told him
I posed obstacles for him, I lay a thorn in his path
Like a blossom, I even tried wilting
Today, weds a friend. But I am not happy
Love, culminates into marriage. But...
why aren't you happy, Sanjay?
You are the one who doesn't want this wedding to happen
But why?
But there can be only one reason.
You are in love with Anjali.
We're friends, you can tell me.
Yes, I love Anjali
Now that it's out in the open, what to do?
For you, it's quite simple. Now that you know everything...
I think you should just leave and go back. To America
Really? - Yes
This is my story and Anjali's.
You just walked out of the woodwork
You see? Anjali doesn't love you
Anjali doesn't love me?
Look, in her life you're merely a stand-in for me
In my stead
She went to America on my say-so.
The swing, that was mine too
You understand...? In my story and Anjali's, you're my understudy
Now that I'm here, what need for you?
So pack. Go back. To America
You needn't inform anyone. I'm around, I'll handle everything
Sure, you'll handle everything. But taking your advice...
will be a bit problematic. - Tell me, I'll solve your problem
After all, I'm Sanjay, the magic man. Say, what's your problem?
Problem is, I too love Anjali
I can't walk away from her, certainly not when she's willing to marry me
That's her mistake, Rohit. I'll make her happier than you can
That's what you think, Sanjay.
But there's only one way to decide... Where lies happiness for Anjali.
Where?
You love her and I love her too. Let's both try
You don't ask me to go away, I don't ask you to go away
You can do whatever you wish
If you succeed, then Anjali was never mine
If you fail to succeed, then it's evident...
that Anjali and I share that eternal relationship
Why are you wasting your time? You're a nice guy
What's with Anjali? You'll find scores of girls
No Sanjay. There's only one Anjali
And she can belong to only one of us
Whose? Only time can tell
I got one advantage. I'm marrying her In a week's time
You're running out of time
I got 22 years behind me. You're the one lagging way behind
You lose. - We'll see
I warned you! The planetary alignment for the engagement was inauspicious
The boy isn't to blame. He is influenced by the illusions
We got to know in time. Else...
I'd rather this isn't discussed
Without discussions, how do we arrive at conclusions?
Am I not to be given a chance to defend myself?
What you saw was true, yet not true. I did it, but I wasn't my self
Such was the circumstance, such was the ambience...
I thought, if so many people are trying to make me happy...
I ought to join them lest they take it otherwise
I could've walked out...
and left them heartbroken
But in my folly I've broken the heart of the man who took me for a son
Well what are the facts, Uncle?
Fact is, you saw me disgrace myself
But there's another truth. No one means more to me than Anjali
Far bigger truth, Anjali trusts me, wants to spend a lifetime with me
And yet another truth, Uncle. You took me for a son
But can I ever be your son? If I were, you would've forgiven me
If you will not touch me in pardon, I shall never be able to face myself
Never
You can even face the Sun
After all, I have taken you for a son
What happened? - Don't worry, everything's fine
Uncle has forgiven Rohit - I knew Rohit would bring him around
That's what Rohit is like, isn't he?
Sanju, in all these days, you still haven't told me?
How do you find Rohit?
Tell me. It's one big decision I took for myself. What do you think?
Am I right? Tell me Sanju how do you find Rohit?
Rohit is a nice boy, Anju
Great guy. He'll make you happy
What did you do to bring Papa round?
Fell in love with you
What do you want? - Love
Couldn't find it at the bachelor's party?
I never imagined, you'd admit defeat so soon
You praised me to the skies Honestly, I was surprised
How to explain this? Deep inside this scoundrel of a Sanjay Malhotra...
there lives this nice, noble Sanjay Malhotra too
But it takes Anjali's tears to draw out the nice guy
Like you, he is also a fool being honest, being truthful
But it's only a matter of a few minutes and those few minutes are over
Which leaves this Sanjay Malhotra cunning, conniving
So wipe that smile off your face The war is on
So this is going to be even more fun And guess why?
Tomorrow... my relationship with Anjali will have run the course of 3 months.
I'm going... to take her out. She says, impossible
and I say, you have your magic-man
He will bring you to me - What makes that interesting?
Your Anjali is about to beg of you and how will you refuse her?
That'd be interesting? Besides the wedding is only 6 days away
Only six days.
In six days... the earth spins around six times
Keep spinning your planet let me make a world for myself
My wedding... is six days away
Enough of wordplay Six days...?
Neither the car nor I can get an inch ahead
From here you walk alone
You're nervous, your heart is pounding
Because you don't know what's about to happen
What might he do? And what should you be doing?
Heart misses a beat?
My heart would, too... were I in your place
And what'd you do?
For a moment, imagine being in love with me
For a moment, let me imagine I'm in love with you
And what would you do?
In that moment, I would've tried to live a lifetime
Tell me, what would you do?
I...
would walk up to you, without taking my eyes off yours... like this
I'd keep looking at you... - Then...?
Your eyes would hold mine your hands would be in mine
And your breath upon my breath - And...?
And I'd carry you away with the wind to the rustle of leaves...
and bathe you in a lake of dew and in a moment stilled...
I'd whisper in your ears... - Whisper... what?
Whisper... - What?
It'd be...
*Be it for even a moment give me your love...*
*even if you're false
*Silken waves of breeze*
*Come embrace me*
*Our desires are alive and so are we*
*Don't let this distance be*
*At wind's caress won't the blossom be fragrant?*
*How can I give you my fragrance?*
*The budding blossom is shy*
*Then this shyness is more like punishment*
*Why are you so fervent? It's only a little wait*
*Even a moment's wait is cruelty*
*Our desires are alive and so are we*
*I wanted not to speak out*
*But I couldn't hold my silence* *Yet I haven't had my say*
*Be it whatever you tell me or whatever you won't...*
*but don't look so lost*
*Come what may...*
*just listen to your heart*
*Whatever is heartfelt...*
*just tell me*
*I'm yours, I swear by you*
*Our desires are alive and so are we*
*A silken breeze winds...*
*let's draw closer*
*Our desires are alive and so are we*
*Don't let this distance be*
Help
I just fell off a tree
Hurts
Why is the car going backwards? Anju...?
Rohit! What are you upto? I'm going to get killed
Let me sleep, Ria. No office today
Sanjay, where are you?
Why is everyone staring at me? I'd like to see Sanjay
In bed till ten? Like always! - Ria, you...?
Yes, I
Darling, will you please tell these people how we're related?
Didn't I tell you he'd come running?
Ria! What are you doing here?
I thought I'd surprise you
Didn't I tell you he'd be happy to see me?
This is Ria And Ria, this is...
H.P... V.P... Lucky... A.J. And that's Raj
I've been introduced to them and everyone here knows me
Darling, you're too much! You haven't told them that we...
We...? - Boyfriend - Girlfriend
And you've been having this affair for the last 8 months
So she's that "little sister" of mine?
And she has no one but you? - And you have no one but her?
No...
Here for Anju's wedding... - And left your heart in Bombay?
With his real girlfriend! - So he calls every day to tell her...
Oh I miss you, darling. - Darling...?
I see! So dear nephew, is this your love story... nice to meet you
Try your best cover, but we know - Anyone else knows more than me
Darling
Why are you shying away? She's a beauty
Given a chance... - Would you...?
Smart, good-Iooking
Shall we... H.P...?
The journey must've been tiring. Take rest
May we excuse ourselves? - As soon as Anju arrives...
I will send her directly to you - No, no...
She will be glad to meet Ria - Sure, she'll be glad
I'm here, everything will be fine - Why have you come here?
Raj, will you please take my luggage in?
Yes darling... I mean to say... Ria
Shall we... darling?
Darling, my foot! What rubbish
Go on, laugh some more Shut up, will you?
You've ruined my game! Everything was so perfect
The wedding is only 5 days away! Why did you have to do this Ria?
To help you, stupid! I'm here for your own good
I just saw what good you're upto! Do you realise what you've done?
My bachelor's party cost Rohit far less than what your stupidity has cost me
Darling...! - Have you had your say?
You're in love with Anjali, right? - What rubbish! I'm in love with you
Darling! - Sanjay...
Darling... - Sanjay, I'm serious
When did you discover you're in love with Anjali?
You realised, when you saw someone else walking into Anjali's life
When you saw someone else getting close to Anjali, you realised...
how close you are to her. And just like you...
Anjali has never seen you with another girl
So...? - When Anjali sees me with you...
Anjali should know too, no?
She might reciprocate what you felt when you got news of her wedding
You understand, darling
Oh... darling
Anjali... this is Ria
Sanju, will you step out for a moment? I got to tell you something
Sure, go along I'll join you
Her luggage is in the kids' room
Kapoor? Who's Kapoor? - Mr. Kapoor in Mumbai
Runs a big advertising agency. Last year at one of his parties... I met Ria.
You never even told me?
Did you tell me about Rohit? - I told you about my wedding
I'm not marrying her yet. I'll let you know when it happens
You're going to marry her... this Ria?
Why what's wrong with her? She's smart, she's sexy, beautiful
What do you mean, why? You won't marry her and you won't
I've spoken. Now do what you want - Okay
And by the way, what's she doing here? - She's here for your wedding
You're my friend, you invited me. She's my friend. In turn...
Why did you invite her? - May I not have a guest?
Girlfriend! If I invited Ria, are there any problems?
No, she's fine
You don't even know her - I don't even want to know her
Worse, she's an eyesore.
If you say so... I can accommodate her in my room
Jealous? - Why should I be jealous?
Because after you she's the only other friend I have
Don't you ever compare me with her
*Are you the Moon in full bloom are you a star?*
*Whatever you be, by God you're incomparable*
That's my face pack commercial
Modelling must be fun! - Show us a catwalk
Right away
Nice prop
But won't help - Let's see
H.P. You still haven't given me the pendant
Who can refuse you? Here you are
Papa, Uncle, looks like you forgotten all about a wedding just 3 days away
So what do we do? - Are you asking me?
Didn't Mr. Verma call you?
Papa, the jeweller is on the phone.
Am I supposed to organise my wedding?
No, that's my lot. Excuse me, we got work to do
Shall we...?
Uncle, have you nothing to do? - Oh yes...
You know, such a lot to do about the wedding... excuse me
You're forever organising weddings...? - Yes
And you still haven't found your girl? - I'm sure I'll find someone...
say one of your cousins? Someone who's yet to marry...?
I haven't a sister, but they say I've come of age
They must be right... - Uncle, there's work to be done
May I help you? - No thanks, son
What with the arrival of the new star everyone's after her
Sanjay is very lucky, isn't he? - How come...?
Finding someone like Ria... - Actually I find it strange
I never imagined someone like Sanju... - Would like someone so modern?
For someone who lives in Bombay could Sanjay like anyone else?
You're cosmopolitan too. From America - I'm different
I always wanted someone simple. Like Anjali
But Sanjay's choice... got to be Ria
They look great together, no? - Yes, great
I say, let's give them a wedding the same day as us
He's right! Besides, we are the only relatives Sanju has
My point! So what the point putting off a nice thing?
But you must teach me cheese omelettes
Sanju picks fights in the kitchen
Your kitchen? Or his? - The kitchen is the same
In Bombay, you're lucky to find one kitchen inside one flat
I don't understand... You and Sanju...
Sanju never told you? We live together, in the same apartment
How many bedrooms?
You and Ria, live together? In the same flat?
No, how could she live in my flat? Never... no
Why are you laughing? - Nothing. Ria was just telling me...
how Sanjay broke down a bathroom door to rescue her
And she was clad only in a towel - You said she never lived with you
She didn't. But of late she doesn't have a place to live. So...
How magnanimous of you Sanjay, to have given her shelter
Very soon, she'll make family with you. All the best
The plan was nice. Girl, jealousy... it always works
Maybe the living-together bit was a bit too much?
They'll make sure you're married
The likes of Anjali are best for doctors like me
It's a Ria you need
Coming... aunt
We're finalising a wedding date for you and Ria
Finalising
It's not working Got to think up something else
Sanju, come out.
Tell your Ria to come out
Poor Bunty has been knocking for the past half an hour
And the lady is taking her time dressing to go out
All dressed and raring to go? Where? - Anju, the college re-union
The annual do, the old students get together... never got the card?
I got invited before you. I've been invited regularly these last 3 years
I never went, not even once - So sad
You'll miss it this year too - How come?
How can you go? You're getting married in 3 days
But how can you go? I skipped the last 3 years because you weren't here
We promised each other, we wouldn't go to the re-unions without each other
Oh I forgot, sorry - No problem. Change
Let's go downstairs for a game of carrom
I can't. - Why?
Darling, I'm ready. Let's go
I promised Ria. She wants to see my college. I can't break her heart
Shall we... darling?
If you want come along I'm sure Ria won't mind
My invitation says, I can bring along a guest of my choice
Then, you're coming? - Of course. With a guy of my choice
*There's no one like us*
*We're the life of the party*
*Is there anyone else ...like us?*
*Why lament that you can't find anyone else?*
*Is there no one else? Well, I don't lament that*
*We're young, we're beautiful*
*We have no laments*
*The sights are already driving me crazy*
*Is anyone else around like us?*
I'm the life of the party*
*When you're with me everything is beautiful*
*The road ahead is full of love*
*Come into my heart let my search end*
*Anyone else around like you and I...?*
*You and I have brought to life... this party*
*Anything like you-and-I...?*
What a pair! That's how a friendship ought to be
Wish I too had a friendship like this
Are you talking about Sanjay or Anjali? - I'm talking about you
Sanjay is lucky to have you on his side.
That's what everyone says in Bombay
Only lucky guys get friends I mean girl friends like Ria
Hey what happened? - Ria, will you spare me this act?
Act? How can you call it an act? - You're his friend. Not girlfriend
But you make a great friend. That's why I wish I had a friend like you
Someone who would be willing to help me to get Anjali
Between friends, you got to do what it takes for friendship's sake
From "Maine Pyar Kiya?" - You watched the movie?
Six times. - I could be your friend
Off the record
Can I ask you something off the record?
What makes you so confident that whatever you're doing is right?
See them together?
Sanju, I want that trophy - You've taken three of five
This is my turn. - Sanju, please...
No, score is score
Aren't they made for each other? - Certainly not
Life's no dance competition, Ria
Nice dancing partners... don't necessarily make good life partners
The bigger decisions in life can't be based on trivia
Say, if you never knew Sanjay say, if you were my friend...
suppose I was the one who invited you And now, look at them
Do you still say that Sanjay and Anjali were made for each other?
Whatever you or I think doesn't make a difference
What makes all the difference is what Anjali wants
What Anjali wants
You're a nice guy, Rohit - I know
But sometimes, I'm afraid my ethics might create obstacles
Gayatri...
girls all over the world are getting married
But no mother-of-the-bride was ever as harried as you are
What will people say?
Ajit... - Yes?
Send the sweets to Rohit's house - Yes uncle
Our son-in-law is one-in-a-million It's a time to rejoice. And you...
What's going on?
Sanju, will you make Gayatri see some reason?
She insists that a twitch in her left eye bodes ill
Is Aunt's superstition rubbing off on you
If you ever have a daughter and come the time for her wedding...
you'll know. - What...?
Isn't it sad to know that my daughter will be leaving me in a couple of days?
I got a wonderful idea! Let me marry Anju
And I'll move in to live with you Then Anjali won't have to go away
If that could've happened no one would be happier than I
You'd be happy to give your daughter away to a fool like him?
Your daughter has chosen someone nice like Rohit. Thank God for that
And everything's working out fine
Most parents lose their sleep over a daughter's wedding
And before we knew it this match was finalised
Before we knew it... just think - What's there to worry about?
In front of so many people it takes only one wrong word...
to hurt everyone. And it has happened so many times
And I've heard, seen such instances...
where one misplaced word can destroy relationships that have lasted years
Are we about to forge new relationships at the cost of old ones?
It deserves a thought
You're getting worried for nothing I'm around, and you have my promise
No one will be hurt no one will be sad
I'll make sure everyone is happy I'm your magic man, am I not?
Listen...
About Sanju marrying Anjali...
Gayatri, you know what he's like
He was joking. He wasn't serious - What if he was?
Uncle... - Coming
Sanju is always joking
Sanjay, guess what Rohit told Anjali over the phone? He said...
you should hear it yourself - You taped their conversation?
Of course - You're too much
Should I not have done it? - Of course not
Anjali and Rohit are getting married What right have you...?
I'm not here to attend some Anjali's wedding to one Rohit
I'm here to break up the wedding
You got to tell Anjali that you're in love with her
Sanjay, will you tell Anjali or won't you?
Why not? - I don't know...
Then I'll tell her... - No Ria... please
I don't think you need me here.
Then... I think I'll just leave
Won't you stop me?
I don't know what to say... - You needn't tell me anything
But you won't ever tell the one you ought to be telling, will you?
Sanjay, my best compliments It's your best friend's wedding
See you in Bombay. In the meantime if you achieve anything, invite me
To your wedding
Uncle, this is splendid!
I did nothing. Sanjay did all this
He was up all night. I don't think he has slept
Just like you kept awake all through my wedding to Nilu
Yes, just like that
You like the design?
Eat this, Nilu, Gita... the bride's trousseau is here
Where? - Downstairs
Come on, leave that for later - Okay, come on
You don't want to see the bride's trousseau
I wanted to see you in bridal finery But that isn't to be
Why are you leaving so suddenly? Can't you stay for two days...
I got important work. I'm helpless. If I could stay back, I would
I wanted to stay for your wedding. But anyway... Sanjay is here
Aren't you afraid to leave your boyfriend to a bevy of beauties?
Sanjay isn't my boyfriend. We're friends. Just friends
Then why all this...? - Life plays such jokes with us
And we crack jokes with each other ...only so much to the relationship
In Bombay, Sanjay never fell in love with any girl, nor can he ever
Why...?
Because the girl in his heart isn't in Bombay
Aunt, your cab is here
Not in Bombay? Where else? - How can I say?
You are his best friend. You ought to know what is in his heart
Seek within your heart, you might find the answer
Yes Sanjay, tell me
I'm going
Back
You win
I lose
I don't know why I believed why Anjali and I...
Without even thinking
how one mistake of mine... might break so many hearts
Thanks to you, I stopped myself from making that mistake
Anyone else in your place... but how could you be someone else?
You are Rohit, the perfect one
The one for Anjali
I was Anjali's friend. I'll stay a friend
But I won't be able to stay
I don't have the courage to see Anjali leaving with someone else
Nor am I gentleman enough to let you carry her away
Take care of Anju
The wedding is tomorrow. I won't ask you to stay for the wedding
But today, won't you join in my celebrations?
We just became friends, didn't we?
Yes, we just became friends
And I'll make sure everyone joins the celebration
After all, it's my friend's wedding
*To the rhythm of drums, her anklets chime*
*The bride wears a veil the bridegroom carries flowers*
*And the Spring follows them around the world*
*May all the happiness in the world be theirs*
*Here's a prayer from my heart for my friend's wedding*
*My friend has found love*
*For him, this is sweet victory*
*I'm so happy...*
*I'm so happy, I've filled this party...*
*with songs...*
*for a dear friend's wedding*
*There's no winning, there can be no losing...*
*where there's love*
*If there be a contest, there can be no love*
*Let's embrace...*
*friend...*
*here's a prayer from my heart...*
*for my friend's wedding*
*My childhood friends, my childhood playground...*
*my toys, my swings, I will miss everyone*
*How will I hide my tears?*
*My friend, hear what our playground tells...*
*colour your heart, you life in hues of love...*
*and even the jewellery you wear will smile*
*Remember that, friend*
*My friend's wedding...*
*it's my friend's wedding*
So you're leaving? You lost
It's you who told me to put my heart into the game
Win or lose, what difference?
Sanju are you sure?
Are you doing the right thing? - Yes Uncle, just as sure as you were
Hindustani women are incomprehensible
Try to get close and their decorum and their decency stands in the way
And 12 hours before the wedding, summons are issued
What's this sudden show of affection?
Rohit, we've told each other about everything...
except one thing...
that you perhaps forgot to ask ...and I forgot to tell you
What...?
Whether I ever loved someone before you
Did you? - Yes
From the moment such thoughts about a boy arise in a girl's mind...
there has been such a boy. - Who is he?
Sanju, my friend ...my best friend
But you saw Sanju. How can I even expect him to understand?
He's lost in his own world. I always hoped...
some time or the other, Sanju would come up and tell me
But as time went by, I realised I'm wrong
For Sanju, I'm just a friend. Only friend
So I suppressed my feelings, lest he found out
Then... you came into my life
You made me believe, I can have
a good life with someone else too
But before beginning this life, I wanted you to know...
I'm building this relationship on honesty. Yes, Rohit?
That's just why I called you out
Hello Rohit
Beautiful flowers, just like your daughter
You haven't gone to bed yet? - Lost my sleep
How come you're up so late? - I made a promise to Anju...
that I'd decorate her wedding hall myself.
I'm doing it up in flowers
May it be flowers, flowers for her all the way and no thorns
Your prayer is already bearing fruit
If I ask you a question, will you
give me an honest answer?
Yes, ask me.
I wasn't your first choice for Anjali
No son, it's nothing like that. - I know... I know and it's okay
But there's something even you don't know
I wasn't Anjali's first choice either.
What are you saying, son?
And for you and your daughter the first choice was the same
Sanjay
In all these years, Anjali could never tell Sanju how dearly she loves him?
And there's Sanjay. He loves Anjali so fiercely...
he can't bear to see her marry someone else
And I am the only man in the world who's aware of their feelings.
The only man who can give any twist to this tale
But what am I to do?
What do I do now?
Now I know, Sanjay was right.
This story is his. And Anjali's. I had no place in this story
Sanjay left. Because he didn't want to break anyone's heart
At least he knew what he ought to do
Anjali told me...
because she wanted honesty to be the cornerstone of our relationship
She knows too what she ought to do
Now it's my turn. Even I know what I ought to do
But what I must do, I cannot bring about all by myself
I need a mother to bless my way...
to tell me, "Son, you're right"
"I am with you"
Say, are you with me? - Yes
Hey... Say, how do I feel? - How...?
Like I've fast-forwarded a decade into life
I feel like we're both 35 and here we are sitting at Gateway of India
You haven't found a boy and I haven't found a girl
Really? - Yes
So...? - So let's strike a deal
At thirty-five if we're still here, then we'll get married
On one condition. - What?
You'll still do the cooking
Okay, done
Talking about being 35...
I don't even know...
with Anjali gone, how I'll manage to live beyond the day after...?
You... here...? Tomorrow's your wedding
Why did you leave?
Ria fell sick all of a sudden... - No Ria, no Rohit
No one's an excuse to my question. You and I...
and between us, this one question
Why did you leave? - Because...
because I... - Because what?
Because I can't bear to see you marry someone else
Why can't you bear? - Because I wanted to marry you
Then why didn't you tell me? - I was afraid Anju
If you refused...
It would've broken my heart.
What about all these years... that I held my heart and I pined?
Did you ever think of the girl who was with you all her life...
holding hands, sitting with you on that swing...?
In the whole wide world, why does she have an only friend?
A girl goes through her childhood and her youth with one boy
Would she ever seek the company of someone else... for the rest of her life?
Have you never wondered?
You never thought that all I needed was only my friend?
The only one. You
How can a girl be expected to be the first to express her feelings?
You never wondered? Never...?
I'm... I'm sorry, Anju. - Sorry? Is that all you can muster?
Won't you say what I've wanted to hear all these years?
I love you
*To the rhythm of drums, her anklets chime*
*The bride wears a veil, the bridegroom carries flowers*
*And the Spring follows them around the world*
*May all the happiness in the world be theirs*
*Here's a prayer from my heart for my friend's wedding*
*It's my friend's wedding*
