I've been waiting with my arms outstretched
Lo! My prayers are answered
I've got my wish
This prayer of yours shall not be answered
Every thing happens in its own pace and place. And right now,
I have to fix this house, else, there'll be a disaster
Get down. - What are you doing?
Please
Marry me
Why? - You will belong to me
I belong to you. - For ever, I mean
Scared that I may stray?
Yes. - And you feel that social practice...
is stronger than my will?
Zeenat, my strong lady love, you can consider it...
my weakness, or apprehensiveness. In fact, I'm tired of this hide-n-seek
I know that I was scared of the world, not you
But I've had enough. I'm going to Saudi tomorrow
Marry me
Now? Right here?
Right time, right place
Hear ye all
The emperor is coming
After he's gone, you will also go with us to the temple
It's beautiful. - I will, uncle
May the Goddess protect you on your journey
Where's my yoghurt shake? Do I ever get it without asking?
I'll get it
Don't spoil her! Henpecked husband
I'll miss you a lot
Only a matter of few months
Come back soon. - Before I get over the memories?
These are unforgettable memories
I, Amir Khan, wish to marry you, Zeenat Fatima
In mehr, I give you these earrings...
and my heart
I, Zeenat Fatima, approve of you
In mehr, I accept your earrings, your heart,
your life and soul
My life, my soul
Don't weep. Don't make my journey more difficult
I'm in pain, it's my choice
Do you know what I prayed for?
May this sun never set,
may this day never end
True. How do you know?
I can read your mind
Really?
What am I thinking of now?
Not here
At least write once a month. Make our village proud
Bring glory to our country. - I will, father
My respects. - Bless you
Take care of yourself. - And do write
Sure
And the money you will send, don't send it by post
And eat well. - I will
It contains food. Careful
Would you leave without accepting our farewell, son?
You leave me with no choice
You should've at least asked us before marrying, Amir
In getting your approval, I lost two years, mother
Come here
Salaam Aleikom
Father, mother... this is Zeenat
Your daughter-in-law
You can accept this fact,
you can even hate it
As you know, she'll accept any of your choices
We know
Then let's hear your decision. - What's this hurry about?
Father, it's simple. Yes, or no
That's it. You'll hear of me only when I return
Only Zeenat will get my letters and phonecalls
Don't be so unsympathetic, son. - Mother, have you ever realised...
how harsh you've been with me?
Take care of yourself
Write as soon as you reach
My last tears. I won't shed a tear until you return
I used to wonder why God created you
But now I just thank Him everytime I breathe
O my poet, do write those words again in your letters
lmagine me in it
Will you take care of me?
Welcome
Got the Sim card?
Hello?
Turn this way, or, you'll lose the network
Hello? - All right
Hello? - Hello, my love
How are you? - First-class. And you?
I'm fine
I hope you are eating well? - Will you ask me every month?
I just want to hear your voice
The voice of my freedom. - What then happens of me?
I'm stuck between the earth and the sun. You must feel the same
But please, go on speaking
Time up
Take my name
Is he coming towards you?
Yes
My name! - Meera
Thanks. I'll call you next month
Take care of yourself
You still had ten seconds... to say a few more things
Do drop in. Else, my business will be ruined
How many months more?
About four months
Letter
In few months, we'll get possession of the mansion of our ancestors
Our honour will also be restored
I had let it out with a heavy heart
A man's honour is seriously attached to his family and house
And the happiness that is around us today, is thanks to you
What have I done? It's your son who is earning
My son!
In the last 5 years we couldn't repay...
what he has repaid in just six months
True. But, it's thanks to the Goddess of Wealth
Before marriage, your darling son was a wastrel
Waleikom. - Assalam
Mother,
why don't you employ someone?
I have told you several times
Old bones need some help
I can't believe how we made a mistake in recognising you
Never mind, father. Even I thought the two of you were quite touchy,
miserly, obstinate and high-handed
Why don't you keep some money? - My salary is enough for me
You know that you also have a right to it
Yes. But I'm not in need
Goodbye. God be with you. - God be with you too
That will be mine and Shankar's room
Whose room will that one be? - Raj
And that one will be my mother-in-law's
And this one? - For you
"My beautiful..."
"sweetheart,"
"come to me"
"Welcome..."
"to my land"
Your name is not here. I'm surprised too
Brother hasn't ever been careless
I'll pay you next month. Do you trust me?
I do trust... - Then?
Just one minute
All right
Here
Hello?
I'm Meera here
Can I speak to Shankar Singh?
It's mine
Amir?
Who's speaking?
Yes
It's okay, tell me
Okay
Amir has been arrested on charges of murder
He's been given the capital punishment
I think we must consult Akbar
Holy Priest, show us a way out
Trust Allah. You must visit a mosque...
and make an offering
Are you Amir Khan's father? - Yes
I'm Natarajan, I come from the Ministry of External Affairs, Delhi
Even we have no clue
All we know is that Amir and his roommate Shankar had a brawl
Shankar fell from the balcony. Perhaps Amir pushed him
They lived on the tenth floor. - Amir had told me about Shankar
They got along very well. - Correct
Their neighbours too confirm that. - Then this is certainly an accident
I too feel the same. I somehow managed to have a word with Amir last week
He too said the same. - We can have him released, can't we?
Please tell the police, he is innocent...
Not that easy. There's no witness
We just have Amir's statement
Amir is a trucker, and... - His life is not worth a deal, right?
Ma'am, such news is normally given by the local police
But, I have personally come here, on leave
Thank you for the trouble you've taken
Can I talk to Amir?
We don't even know where he is being held
The punishment will be carried out in two months
In two months?
Look, I don't intend to enliven your hopes
But perhaps, there is a way
As per Saudi law. If the widow forgives her husband's killer...
if Shankar's wife signs Amir's mercy petition...
Amir can be saved
Thank God. We'll send these documents at once
The problem is, we have no idea where she lives
Shankar was from Rajasthan, but the address in his passport is fake
This practice is quite common. We are investigating, but it'll take time
Our government is discussing it with the Saudi government
Will take time? I don't understand this
You are well-versed with the law. Is there really no way out?
Rajasthan is a huge state. Our men are trying...
there's no problem. - She has to be found somehow...
we just need her signature
Where to?
To find that woman. - How?
No idea. I know that she lives in Rajasthan
How will you go there?
No idea
You are so full of confidence...
yet you know so little
All I know is that He will help me
My dear, all the time, we can't leave every thing to Him
That's why I'm going myself. - But where will you look for her?
I got a picture of Amir with Shankar
Rajasthan is a huge city
Will you go knocking doors?
I can't sit twiddling my thumbs
All right
Any other information about her?
And I'm certain you want to leave right now
Right
I wonder what God was thinking when He created you
Amir too used to say that
All the buses must've left by now
Can't you wait till tomorrow?
If I wait even a moment, I'll feel as if I'm driving Amir towards death
I won't return without her signature, Baig saheb
All right
Come on
Greetings, Binder
Salaam Aleikom, Baig saheb. After years! How've you been?
God has been merciful. What about you? - I'm first-class. Who's that?
Zeenat
God! The little one?
I'm grownup now
Binder, I got some work for you
Sure. After a meal
Let's have mutton pilav
Baig saheb, this is madness, you know
She is crazy too
If anyone can pull it off, it's her
"I cannot..."
"lose courage"
"I cannot..."
"give up my desire"
"So what if the journey is tough?"
"So what if the horizon is hazy?"
"So what if I feel lonely?"
"Even if my paths are laden with thorns,"
"I must walk"
"Even if the evening hides the sun,"
"the night must concede to the dawn"
"Autumn will end,"
"Spring will paint the garden"
"A new day will dawn"
I can't go ahead with you, I got to deliver the stuff
Thank you for all your help
Don't worry, dear. Good willing, you will find the girl
I will find her out. - I'm confident
God be with you, dear. Farewell
Bye
We've run out of opium
Gauri, give her some money. - I don't have
We don't have few cents?
Shall I ask next month's rent in advance from Mr Chopra?
No need. No need to beg
My son wouldn't have left your wallet empty
Never
Had we not sent him abroad for a few bucks, we wouldn't have had...
to see this day
I'm an astrologer. - It shows. Go away
If I predict about what you seek, can I sit here then?
I don't have money to offer you
You can share the food
Okay. Tell me
You have set out on a quest. You are looking for something
Every person is looking for something
You are looking for...
a woman
Tell me more
You've travelled very far, tired and weary...
in a huge vehicle, maybe a truck
Thanks
My future?
One minute
You saw me getting off Sardar's truck, didn't you?
Do you always get away with this farce?
Sometimes
Actually, I'm a an actor
What?
Actor. Our clan moves about places in disguise...
Conning people, right? - No. We entertain people
But you can't act for nuts. - What are you saying, ma'am?
There's no actor like me. I can do anything you want, try me out
Folks, aunt has approved of me, Basanti is willing to marry me...
so I'm not dying!
This earth is my mother, sir. And he just abused my mother
Dates and dates, Your Honour!
When my arm does the job,
the victim just dies
Circuit, do you know we have 206 bones...
in our body. Do we ever think of it when we smash them?
Look, it's raining
Without my beloved, my heart is hysteric
Give me a glimpse! Come to me, at least once
Hats off to you. Great actor
Thank you. Bye
To con someone else?
Thank you for the food. God willing, we'll meet again
Good God! My bag!
I'm sorry, I just dozed off. I'll just get...
It happened to me too when Dharamveer's father passed away
A living person is turned into a lifeless, weak puppet
My own son treated me like a stranger
Why were you always so harsh with me, grandma?
I was envious, dear...
of my life that never was amiable
Your and Shankar's love would upset me
Strangely, even women don't care for each other
What can you expect from men then?
Forgive me, my child
For the first time you have touch me, grandma
And for the first time,
I'm missing Shankar so badly
Everyone is missing him, dear
Why is everyone blaming me?
I'm not at fault
I know, dear
I know
It must be difficult for you to see someone else staying in your house
You have no idea...
how close I was. So close
The mansion would've been mine in just few days
But Shankar had to die then
I lost everything that day, Mr Chopra
My son, my mansion,
my honour
I've told you several times to turn the mansion into a hotel
Does anyone sell his honour, his integrity?
I'm just letting the mansion to you for a few days
One day, I shall take this mansion back
God willing, it will be
I'll leave now
Bye
May I help you?
No need
You look new around here. This place can be dangerous for strangers
I'll be careful. Thanks
Now that you are here, we certainly need to play host
Why did you escape from the police station?
Thanks for finding her
I've been looking for her
She escaped from Jolapur police station
But Jolapur police station is 20 kilometres away
Girls are quite fast these days
You are too young to be an inspector
Where do I explain? Here? Or at the police station?
Here
Scoot. Or, I'll haul you and your stooge in for five years
Never seen him before. - Did you see his moustache?
Amir... your husband?
Yes
And you are out looking for him?
Those documents... mercy petition?
Can you read?
Is he in trouble?
What's the charge?
What? - Perhaps I can help, if you tell me
Do I trust a thief who ran away with my belongings?
I'm a thief, but I didn't run away
I returned every penny
I was wrong, forgive me
I just want to help you in your quest
And why'd you do that? - Because I'm jobless right now
Because you are a complete stranger here
Because I know every nook and corner hereabouts. You will need me
How did a thief just turn kind?
One mustn't lose an opportunity to help others
Nice line
Where did you steal the money from? - Are you taunting me?
All right
Now I understand. What else do we have apart from that photo?
Some thing surely?
What madcap would come with just a photo?
I would
One photo...?
With one photograph, we are going to knock every door...
and in twenty years we'll find this guy named... Shankar?
What's this?
When one's tongue is tied,
his emotions betray him
See the picture on the wall?
The place seems familiar. It's not clear though
Come with me
Look, this man has been evading income tax
It's now everyone's responsibility to nab him...
because he's evading the income tax department
And...
please enlarge this photograph
We'll glue it everywhere
One photograph, everywhere? Don't you need copies?
You are the boss
The income tax department will be grateful to you
In fact, the whole country will be grateful to you
And... please...
enlarge this particular point
Here you are
You will be paid for this. Please go to the Income Tax office...
show this card and mention Hybrid Singh. You will be issued a cheque
Please don't refuse. Thank you
I was right. It's Jodhpur
Come on
Trust me. It's Jodhpur, I know
I'll take you there. Come on
Half-hour to the bus-stop, half-hour for the bus to arrive,
half-hour to reach the junction from where we've to take another bus
Now, to find the place where this photo was taken
Meaning?
Listen...
Groundnut is what we'll feed on from now on
Where is she? Where?
Where to?
You make me walk miles, you don't feed me food or water
I feel like jumping off from where you are right now
I'm tired
I was right here
Now what, chief?
What does that mean? - We divide the territory amongst us
What...? Thousands of homes...? - So?
We can't knock all doors. - I'm willing to knock...
all the doors in Rajasthan. Thousands hardly matter
We are not sure if they live here. They might've come here on a vacation
We'll know only after inquiring. - Good God! Wait...
This is idiotic
This may be their house
We need help
Conman
Not about money
He betrayed my trust
But he gathered the courage to return
Yes
They may be Rajputs
Golden nose-ring, the colourful turban,
chain around the neck, their dresses,
I told you. Master-ji used to teach history of Rajasthan. He's retired
Did anyone ask you?
No
I can't figure out more. They could be...
Master-ji...
- What?
I was wondering if they are Agni clan...?
No, no way
Yes
They could be the Agnis
Fifty kilometres from here, across Highway 11...
there's a village called Sarovar. Go there, you might find something
Thank you. Thank you so much
Thank you, master-ji
Stop
Take a pinch of the powder with milk tonight. You'll be fine, trust me
