- Brother, here's some tea. - Thank you.
You're smiling a lot.
Do you like her?
Like? I love her.
I'm in love.
You know, Rida, when I saw her for the first time
I knew that she is the one.
She must be my life partner.
I think it was a similar case with Ramsha.
This is the problem with sisters.
Once I express my feelings, you guys start taunting me.
Please don't ruin my mood by talking about Ramsha.
Ramsha and Nageen are very different from each other.
You're right. Ramsha was quite stylish.
Nageen is a sweet girl.
How can we compare them?
Listen.
I hope you're not thinking that I'm attracted to Nageen's looks.
That's what love means here.
Love at first sight is based on looks.
If you had focused so much on your books and not on these magazines
you wouldn't say that.
Nageen is unique...
She's not fake.
She is not materialistic.
Since you're already in love with her, why don't you propose to her?
How do I do that?
I want to impress her.
I want to win her trust
and try to know if she would like me.
Please think it through this time.
I don't want you to be heart-broken again.
I don't want to see you in pain again.
Our mother has many wishes and dreams for your marriage.
Do you think that she'll agree?
I think that mom would never accept a lower middle-class girl like Nageen.
She's a nice girl, she's beautiful.
But she doesn't fulfil mom's criteria.
Mom wants to get you married to a girl from a rich and influential family.
That's not going to happen.
Rich girls throw tantrums. I can't handle that.
Loving Ramsha was my biggest mistake
I don't want to repeat that.
She hurt me a lot.
I want someone like Nageen. I want her to love me.
She should have a good character.
There should be no one else in her life
except me.
She should love me and only me.
'Are ordinary girls like you worthy of any respect?'
'What's so special about you?'
'Why would I marry you after you slapped me in front of everyone?'
'No one celebrates their own loss.'
'Why did you do this?'
'I didn't do anything to her.'
'She's responsible for whatever happened.'
'Then why don't you look happy?'
'What's wrong with me?'
'Why am I not able to get her off my mind?'
'Why is this happening with me?'
'I have got rid of her from my life.'
'I have started hating her.'
'Then why does she cross my path frequently?'
'Why am I so restless?'
'Why?'
You know, our honeymoon pictures are making a splash.
A fashion magazine's editor has contacted me
he wants our photos to be published on the front page
and he wants to honour us with the best couple of the year award.
Aren't you excited?
Why should I be excited?
Sultan, what's wrong? Why do you not pay heed to my words?
You never answer my questions. You barely respond.
I noticed that you've been upset.
Is everything okay?
Everything is fine. But try not to be a chatter box.
Since when has that become a problem for you?
Why do you ask so many questions! What's your problem?
Sultan, what's wrong with you?
Why are you reacting strangely?
You are always in a bad mood.
I am scared to even converse.
- Is it hard for you to laugh? - I am not a joker
to entertain you.
I am your husband. Don't expect me to dance to your tunes.
You want to know where I went and why. And why I'm upset. Seriously?
Listen, give me some space
else, I'll feel suffocated.
Sultan, I...
'Sultan is married to the minister's daughter.'
'They are wealthy! It was a grand wedding.'
'The pictures are in today's newspaper.'
'The bride and the groom look so happy.'
Why are you standing here?
Nothing.
Why are you crying?
I am not.
There's something in my eye.
No, I saw you weeping.
I said, no!
I am sorry
I should not have asked you. You felt bad.
If that is all, you can leave.
Let me tell you something.
You are the most serious person I have ever come across.
Scolding is all you know to do.
I didn't ask much. I mean
life is too short, try to be happy.
It's easy to ask people
to be happy.
As if happiness is easily found.
You are right.
But, Nageen
life is not meant to be sorrowful.
Everyone faces heartbreak.
Everyone has been hurt...
You may be in tremendous pain
but it doesn't make others' pain any lesser.
Pain is a part of everyone's lives.
I won't ask you the reason for your depression.
I will never ask you.
All I would say is
life is beautiful.
Be positive about it.
And mark my words
happiness will be found easily.
I think, I crossed my limits.
Forgive me
if I have offended you.
I want my birthday celebrations to be lavish this year.
- What say? - Yes.
It's my first birthday post marriage.
You need to make it special for me, right?
Right.
- Shall we book a yacht? - What?
Great! How about my birthday gift?
Look, I don't seek pearls, diamonds or a watch.
I want a sports car.
And how about
booking a world cruise for summers?
Why? Wasn't Europe Tour sufficient?
Why are you planning a world tour?
Have you lost it?
That was our honeymoon.
And world tour is for summers.
You know what? Your life revolves around three things.
Hanging out, exploring and shopping.
So, tell me. What shall I do?
Do you want me to sit at home and cook food for you?
I have already made my point. So stop arguing with me.
Do you think I am a dumb girl?
That I will listen to your taunts and keep quiet?
And tolerate your rude behaviour?
I am used to leading life on my terms.
I can't tolerate objections and taunts.
I feel suffocated in this relationship!
So, why are you still here?
Go live with your parents.
What will happen to their relationship!
Hey, Ujala! Thank God you are here.
Due to public strike, there's no conveyance.
Can you please drop me home?
How can I do that?
My brother will come to pick me up.
I'll tell you what.
Ask boss. He will drop you off.
My brother is here. Bye, I'll leave.
Why are you getting worried?
I can drop you off.
No, thank you. It's too far.
Fine, you can pay me the cost of fuel.
Well, that was a joke. You never laugh.
At least smile. Look, you smiled.
You look so pretty when you smile.
Listen, keep smiling. It suits you.
Come, I will drop you home.
No. Don't worry. I will manage.
Consider me a friend and let me please help you.
Actually, I am your friend.
You don't count me as one. That's an entirely different issue.
But listen, it's getting late. And it's a long journey.
Please come. Come on...
Why are you so reserved? Why don't you talk to people?
What do you want to know about me?
I want to know
how do you stay in this city far from your family
and also why?
You will find it weird.
But I don't have a family.
Mom died when I was a baby. And...
Dad remarried.
He's living a happy life with his family.
He doesn't even care where and how I am.
Yes, but...
There must be someone. A brother, sister or relative?
He has a sister.
My dad left me with her when I was a child.
At the age of 13, I realised
I should learn to be independent.
So, I started working.
Then I came here, to my aunt's place in an unlikely way.
It feels like you have come here
after facing a great struggle.
That's not true.
Well, I am very good at perceiving things.
Sometimes we can fathom people's feelings by their expressions.
Why did you stop here?
Actually, I have some work here.
Just give me five minutes. I will be back in two minutes.
Sorry, it's broken.
Just two minutes.
Sorry, it took long.
This is for you.
What for?
Please keep it. And don't tell me
I am not allowed to give you flowers.
It's not necessary that when a guy gives flowers
to a girl, it means he's proposing to her.
Friends can also offer flowers.
Also, I gifted you this because it is your birthday.
How did you know that it is my birthday?
Good question.
Very good question. How did I know?
Well, actually...
I found your personal file in the office...
So, I read it and I kind of
spied on your personal details. That's how I know.
- W-What! - Yes, but I know
it was a very bad move.
That was extremely bad. Bad boy, Haroon!
I shouldn't have done that. But...
I wanted to know about your family background.
I was so curious. You didn't tell anything.
Why did you want to know about me?
Because I want to be your friend.
Now please don't tell me that a girl and boy can't be friends.
These are old-school thoughts. And I don't believe in them.
No. I am a modern guy.
And I believe in friendship.
I just want to be your friend.
In fact, I will be a great friend.
And I am sure you won't reject my friendship.
- Listen... - No, you listen.
I know that we both faced a similar situation.
You were heart-broken, right?
When God unites
two people who were hurt in love
their friendship turns into a bond and offers solace.
Listen, neither can I accept these flowers
nor your friendship.
Please drop me home soon or else...
Or else, I will go by myself.
I will step out of this car now and go. So please...
Well, that's up to you.
Actually, the problem is there is a strike.
Neither can you hail a rickshaw nor a cab.
Well, you are free to go if you find any conveyance.
Otherwise, this driver is ready, think about it.
Did you decide? Shall we proceed?
Well, I will think that your silence implies consent.
Ms. Nageen, you were talking to Ujala about girls' hostel.
I just want to say that I have a friend
who can help you with this.
So, do you want me to talk to him?
Don't you have any job
apart from eavesdropping on conversations?
- What's your problem? - My problem!
My problem is, I want to drink coffee in a restaurant.
What do you mean?
I mean my favourite restaurant is nearby.
The coffee over there is so famous.
And food is amazing.
What are you doing? I am really getting late.
Please. I want to go home. Just drop me home.
No, it's not late. Trust me.
You won't get any conveyance in the entire city.
And I can't drive on an empty stomach.
If you really want your driver to drop you home
in a situation where you won't get any conveyance
then please let him have some food.
Also, it's nearby. Look, there it is.
First we will take a right and then a left
and then after a while, again a right...
And then we will take a left and finally in the corner
we have the restaurant.
Soon we will be there. Just wait and watch.
Sir, this is your table.
- This one? Okay. - Yes, sir.
Okay, thank you. Please bring two coffees.
- Okay, sir. - We will order food later.
Sure, sir.
This table is reserved.
That means you planned all this before.
Listen, I just wanted to celebrate your birthday.
If it's a crime to celebrate a friend's birthday
then it's fine.
I wanted to celebrate the birthday of a friend who is lonely here.
Hey... "Happy birthday to you."
Thank you. "Happy birthday to you."
"Happy birthday, dear Nageen."
"Happy birthday to you."
You brought me here by lying.
Do you really think I will get impressed
with these cheap tricks and fake sympathy?
You are mistaken.
All men are the same.
Whenever you see a lonely girl, you start showing fake concern.
Coffee!
Keep it.
Thank you.
Please eat it fast. We need to go.
Please have yours.
- I don't like coffee. - But I love coffee.
In fact, I drink at least 6-7 cups of it in a day.
Do you know why? Because I think
coffee and life are exactly the same.
A tasty combination of sweetness and bitterness.
Don't you have any other work to do
apart from sharing these rubbish philosophies?
You remind me of someone.
Ghalib has said...
'Love made me useless.'
'Otherwise, I was useful indeed.'
Please make it fast. We are getting late.
What's the hurry? First you cut the cake.
- Look, I've already told... - First, cut the cake.
First, cut the cake! Please...
What's the motive behind all this?
Well, just now, you told me the motive.
Listen, either my motive is
to show fake sympathy and gain your trust
or, I am flirting with you. Right?
What do you want?
Cake! Please cut it.
- Should I do it to get rid of you? - Yes.
Just a minute...
Looks like you have never cut a cake before
and I bet no one invited you on their anniversary.
First you blow the candle.
Hey...
"Happy birthday to you."
"Happy birthday, dear Nageen."
- "Happy birthday to..." - Eat it. I'm getting late.
- Shall I serve you a piece? - No thanks.
Why? Are you on a diet?
I bet this is something else.
I've never heard of midnight protests.
She's still out.
I told you both
that one day she's going to do something terrible.
She has all the wrong qualities.
But you both ignored me.
You allowed an outsider into our house.
While her own family rejected her
you both are giving her way too much freedom.
Stop talking unnecessarily.
And pray that she returns home safe.
What?
Why should we pray for her
when she's determined to ruin our image in the neighbourhood?
This neighbourhood is for honourable people.
A girl with questionable character doesn't belong here.
The residents will soon blame and harass us.
Our lives will be miserable due to that nasty girl.
Call and ask Nushat where her sister is
and with whom at this hour.
Neither of you will call anyone.
You're simply going to make them worry.
What's with you?
Why do you have to take her side all the time?
She's my niece, not yours.
I know how to deal with her.
I'll deal with her.
I won't tolerate her presence any longer.
So, if you're not going to call, I will.
Let me give her sister an earful right now.
This is ridiculous.
What makes you think
that we've been through similar circumstances?
It's not necessary that those who look depressed
are heart-broken.
By the way, you don't look like
a person who was cheated on.
Just because I always have a smile?
I've heard that people like you
are terrified of the dark.
That's why you always try to stay happy
as well as make others happy.
It's nothing like that.
And you're lecturing me a lot today.
Looks like you know a lot about love.
No, it's nothing like that.
Well... But yes
I do wish that
I was like you.
I would be as happy.
And try to make others happy.
Look, you can still give it a shot. It's not too late.
And I assure you
then you'll realise how beautiful life is.
What's wrong?
I... I don't know.
I don't know why. The car isn't working.
It'll start now.
I... Let me go take a look.
What is it? What...
Well... The car broke down.
- What? - I...
I don't know... This never happens.
I didn't know it'd break down.
Oh, God!
Due to the strike, public transport was banned.
And now your car broke down.
This is so annoying! How long will it take?
I don't know. Let me take a look first.
- Then we might know. - This is all your fault.
You shouldn't have forced me into celebrating my birthday.
You know I'm staying with my relatives.
If there's any sort of issue, they'll point fingers at me.
I'm really sorry.
How is that going to help?
I'm in trouble now for no fault of mine.
I-I'll come along with you and meet your relatives.
I'll tell them we had car trouble and that's why...
For God's sake, don't come and meet them.
With great difficulty, I found a place to live.
I don't want to lose it because of you.
But why should you stay with relatives
who don't trust you?
Forget relatives, no one trusts a girl.
No. No way!
You should go home and pack your bags
and I'll find you a nice girls' hostel...
Keep your suggestions and sympathy to yourself.
Please just get me home safe and sound.
Okay...
- Hello? - Where are you?
Do you realise how worried they all are?
Sister, I was in a meeting with a colleague
and our car broke down, so...
Stop making excuses and go home right now
before dad hears about this.
- Sister, we're trying but... - Who's with you?
A colleague.
Are you crazy?
You'll let an outsider drop you at this hour
at their home? Don't you know about them?
Upon seeing you with that guy at this hour, they will judge you.
I managed to get you into their house with great effort
and if they kick you out, where will you go?
Sister, I...
Tell me, how long will it take to fix it?
Everyone is worried at home.
Look, if you can't fix this...
- Then I'll hail a rickshaw or cab. - No!
Please don't go anywhere. Listen, try to understand.
It's very late.
You won't get any conveyance, I'm not letting you go.
Hello?
Yes, A-Aunt, I'm on the way.
I... I'll be home very soon.
Yes. Okay.
Please hurry up! How much longer?
5 minutes.
Just give me 5 minutes and I'll fix the car.
Please...
Give me 5 minutes.
Please drop me right outside the lane.
No, I can't do that. It's nearby. I'll drop you at the doorstep.
Why don't you understand?
If they see you dropping me
they'll start judging me.
Look, it's 1 a.m., I can't let you go.
Do you realise the kind of scene they'll make
if they see you with me?
I'm dropping you at the doorstep. That's final.
Stop right here.
I am... But what's the matter with you?
Do you think you are a film star, a hero?
Do you realise the trouble I'm in, because of you?
All right, if you wish, you can go by yourself from here.
I won't drive any further.
But, Nageen, I'm here for you. I will help you.
And as long as I'm here, no one will dare to point fingers at you.
Brother Rizwaan...
Brother Rizwaan!
Brother Rizwaan, listen...
What happened? Why are you so worried?
Brother Rizwaan saw us.
I'm afraid of what he might tell my aunt.
I... I can't think of an excuse to tell her.
Look, I can understand your worry.
This is all my fault and I'm really sorry.
But I'll walk in with you.
No need for that. Please leave.
No, please listen.
This is my fault and I'm really sorry.
I'll talk to them and clear all the confusion.
What will you tell them?
They won't bother about what you say, do you get it?
You already got me in trouble. Please don't make this worse.
Please leave and do not follow me.
But, Nageen, hear me out...
What's the problem?
I knew this was about a guy.
And I bet he's the guy she eloped with, on her wedding day.
I...
Where were you?
And who were you with this late at night?
Who's the guy that dropped you home?
He is a colleague.
Due to the strike, I couldn't get a rickshaw.
So he dropped me.
Shut up. Stop making up stories.
I know how working women are.
Your job is just an excuse to roam around the city.
It was a mistake to help you in your dire straits.
Nobody helps anyone nowadays.
You can't stay here for another minute.
Do you get it?
Uncle, please talk to aunt. Where is she going? Please...
Why isn't she listening to me?
I-I'll talk to her, dear. I'll make her understand.
Get out of here.
I... I'll talk to them.
Look, there has been a misunderstanding.
It's not at all like what you've just said.
And the only reason I dropped her home
is because there was a city wide strike
maybe you didn't watch the news.
It was I who insisted on dropping her home.
What gives you the right to interfere in our family matters?
Decent people live here.
Do not interfere in our personal matter.
I'm talking to you with respect, it's you who...
Oh, please!
Just leave.
What do you mean?
What are you going to do here?
Pick up your bag and leave with him.
Aunt, please try to understand...
I don't want to.
Pick up your bag and get lost.
Where will I go at this hour?
Don't kick me out in the middle of the night.
If you want, I shall leave in the morning.
But where will I go now? Please don't do this to me.
How would I know?
Why not ask the one with whom you were out, for so long?
He can take you out on dates
but he can't marry you?
Nageen.
Come with me.
That's right. Go with your friend and enjoy.
I don't want to face trouble
by keeping a girl like you at my home.
Poor people like us only have honour.
But we can't expect that from girls like you.
Go on, get out of here!
- Aunt, what are you saying... - Get out of my house!
Get lost!
Did you not hear me? Go away from here!
Nageen, come with me. Do you hear me? Let's go.
They are not worthy of you.
Come.
