Original subtitles

What about me, my lovely wife? - Stop it! - Yes, my friend.

l still don't understand why you're going to London

Why would the scion of one of the richest families of Shimla...?

He isn't going after the money. - Then...?

Man! Have you seen British babes? - Forget babes

Not money, this is about dotcom

Someday, computer technology will turn into a huge industry

And my ideas can best be put to use out there. Why else would l leave home?

Will you forget us once you're there? - How can you say that Mr Khanna?

Can we ever forget this friendship?

Did you hear that Tina? lf our parents' friendship isn't going to end...

how will our friendship end? - Our friendship will never end Raj!

Tina, you will write to me, won't you? - Yeah... yeah, l'll write...

l'll email you regularly. - But l don't have a computer...

Of course! You don't even have a computer!

But l have... - Excellent!

l'll email you on Pooja's computer

Pooja, you always help me out, you're such a good friend

Come on son, its time for the train to leave...

Dear Tina, London is such a huge city

Such tall buildings and Big Ben is so much bigger than the Shimla clock tower

We live in Hampstead. We're the only lndian family over here

Everyone else is British

The best part about schools here is, you don't have to wear uniforms...

everything's straight out of an Archie comic... London is...

Such a big and beautiful city!

But l miss home. lndia. And you!

l'm waiting to hear from you. Do write. Love, Raj

Raj has really turned into a big bore!

God! Do l have to sit and email him now? No way...

Tina! You promised him you'd write! - Sure...l must have...

You're always making Raj so miserable - So now l should sit and email him?

lf you're so keen, why don't you write?

Dear Raj, London sounds so exciting. Shimla is all the same

l remembered you at lunch today. l ate your favourite ''gobi parathas''

Do you get ''gobi parathas'' in London? Bye for now. Got to do homework

Dear Tina, l'm so happy you replied. Now we'll always be friends

Yes l do get ''gobi parathas'' here

Our ltalian chef makes them under mummy's supervision

But they don't taste like lndia

Guess what... l stood first in class

l didn't know you're as sharp as Pooja in studies

You know, l've been selected for the class cricket team

Someday even l might become a big cricketer

l've a new friend, Ronnie Mendonca. l go to church every Sunday with Ronnie

Something strange happened when l went to church today

Suddenly l started humming a tune. l'm e-mailing you the tune

Your tune is as much of a habit with me as you are. Whenever l'm in church.

l hum your tune. - For me, you're like a habit

Unless l've written to you all about everything...

l can't even go to sleep. - Then start reading

''Love Story'' is a wonderful novel

You know something, l only have a 15-year old photo of you and Pooja

l've asked you so many times, at least send me a photo

Well...considering what you say ... that you know me so well...

l want to see if you even recognise me when we're face to face

Oh come on, who needs a picture! l'll recognise you the instant l see you

Your image is in my heart. - Liar

We'll soon know who the liar is. l have some good news, l'm coming home

l'm coming back to lndia. l'm going to see you once again

After so many years... in a way l'll be seeing you for the first time

You must be so beautiful! l'm sure...

you're still the prettiest... still the most beautiful

That's not me Raj, that's someone else...someone else...

He's coming back! - Who?

Raj! - Who's Raj?

What have you done Pooja? Why did you write all those letters in my name?

Ok so l was stupid! But now you have to help me. He's here just for 2 weeks

Just for 2 weeks you have to pretend you wrote those letters...that's all

lts as simple as that! - l can't do something so stupid!

Tina, after all l've done for you? Ever since we were kids...

l've always done your homework. Because of me, you've passed every year

But you? You can't even do this much for me?

Ok, ok stop trying to get my sympathy like always and just leave it to Tina!

So tell me, what does this Raj look like?

Six foot tall, blue eyes, and... - Enough...let him come

Let's see what this Raj is all about

''The one who comes in my dreams l wonder how she'll be''

''The one who keeps me awake all night l wonder how she'll be''

''Hiding in my heart since long l wonder how she'll be''

''The one who comes in my dreams l wonder how he'll be''

''Hiding in my heart since long l wonder how he'll be''

''l've seen him in such different ways Seems like l know him for days''

''Heavens are deciding the fates of 2 hearts''

''Without even seeing him l'm so restless''

''Oh my God! what will happen to you if you meet him?''

''Taking my dreams away always coming in my way how she'll be?

''ln my eyes he has a place in my heart since days''

''For the first time when l meet the one, the only of my dreams''

''Nervous l am l don't know why seems like hiding the moon in the sky''

''l will not say a word to her, Just keep staring at her face''.

''Oh this restless this eagerness! l wonder how he'll be''

''Hoping she is want l have seen All these years in my dreams''

''l will be meeting her soon ln a day, or two l wonder how she'll be''

''The one who comes in my dreams l wonder how he'll be''

''The one who keeps me awake all night l wonder how she'll be''

''l wonder how he'll be''

That's Raj! Not bad. So how long does the act last?

2 weeks? Leave it to Tina. l'll do as much for you

How're you son?

Our Raj has become so handsome

''Here comes my friend from London! Play it up for my friend!''

''Eat, drink, make merry!'' Now stop it! Let us talk

Come on... - Give me a hug

Dear sister-in-law... - What are you upto?

Just taking a chance

You must be Tina, right ?

l'll recognise you the instant l see you, your image is in my heart

You're even more beautiful than l had imagined you to be

That l am...but you're not too bad yourself Mr America

America? But... l'm from London - London, America.... who cares?

And anyway, once l've said it, l've said it, understand Mr America?

Pooja?

Even you're all grown up too. But l never thought...

Tina would grow up like this! - And what did you think about me?

How do l tell you what l've thought about you?

Those who think, don't do and those who do, don't think...

Kids! What are you doing here? Come on, let's hurry home

l'm celebrating your return with a kirtan at home

Not another prayer session! - Oh yes. One more

Say hail to the Mother Goddess

l had heard that people forget their culture when they go abroad

l may have gone abroad but my heart was right here

Wow, that's culture for you! Mr America's actually winking!

You're amazing... you look beautiful even in a churidaar

l wish l could say the same for you

Well son, won't you join in the prayer?

''l wonder how he'll be''

lt's not that l don't like him... he's quite good looking...

But these good looking guys have their noses up in the air...

they have to be brought down to earth. - No Tina! Raj is not like that!

Really? You seem to be quite into Raj? While writing all those letters...

l hope you haven't fallen in love with him

l'm so stupid! You're not going to fall in love.

You've only time for your books & computer. And you're a good daughter.

You'll marry the person your parents choose for you, right?

And you? What sort of a marriage are you going to have?

Me? l'm definitely going to have a love marriage!

Are you in love with Raj...? - Tina doesn't fall in love with boys

Boys fall in love with Tina... - lf you're talking about love...

then you must've mentioned my name? - You wish!

Tina, you remember when we were kids? We'd bunk school and come skiing here?

And Pooja used to bring our homework! Pooja what have you brought today?

Raj. - Me? How's that?

Hey Mr America... bet? l'll win today just like l used to when we were kids.

Lets see who wins...

l never accept defeat, Raj. - But l really enjoy losing

You enjoy losing in a race? - Who's talking about the race?

What then? - l'm talking about losing my heart

Why are you in such a rush to lose? - l'm in no rush... l've already lost

l don't shake hands with losers

Let me congratulate the winner

This is how you turn defeat into a victory!

Who won? - l lost a long time back... now...

Now...?

Now? Now its in His hands

For the first time l've looked at a guy and felt something...

but this can't be love. Love can't happen like this

l thought when l fell in love l'd be on cloud nine

l thought l'd feel shy to look at him. But this is nothing like that

Still l like him. lt's easy to be friendly with anyone...

but love is something l know nothing about.

This is where You come in

l'm sleepy

Oh, l'm sorry, did l disturb you? - Not at all. Come in

This is the same room isn't it?

This is the same room where Tina used to write to me from?

This is the same room, this is the same computer and this is the same me

Fifteen years!

lt's exactly how l imagined it

You're still working? - l'm applying to some universities.ln London.

London? You're coming to London? And l don't know?

l wanted to surprise you

What will you be studying? - Art

Art? Tina also likes art. Which university are you applying to?

London University. - Hey that's my university!

l know. - Why didn't you ever email me?

lf l did would you reply to me like you replied to Tina?

And what's that supposed to mean? - That's the point. Anyway, forget it

You really like Tina don't you? - You're her friend, l can tell you

You know, without meeting each other, without having seen each other...

We... - We know everything about each other

Not just that

Perhaps we started falling in love. - Without meeting...

Without having seen each other. - This is such a beautiful bond

And what makes it so perfect is that Tina is so beautiful

Yes, that she is!

Pooja, looks like we're going to be good friends

You'll be my first girl-friend! Will you be my friend?

''Would you be that special friend? That special friend till the end''

''whether it's worth being friends with you''

''Let me tell you in a day or two...''

''That way we are friends since days...''

''then why behave in such different ways''

''You never know when you fall in love...''

''That is so true there is no clue''

''Who takes that heart and just goes through''

''So! Would you be that special friend?''

''Whether it's worth being friends with you''

''That special friend till the end. - Let me tell you in a day or two''

''You too are a friend of mine, so help me with your sunshine''

''Go ask your friend the reason why she is so clue less, she is so shy''

''There is no reason why! She is so clue less and so shy''

''All l know that she wants to be... ls a friend, friend till eternity?''

''So! Would you be that special friend? That special friend till the end''

''whether it's worth being friends with you''

''Let me tell you in a day or two...''

Aren't you ashamed of yourself? Walking into a girl's bedroom uninvited

Aren't you ashamed to sleep with the door open with young men in the house?

Never expected a shameless young man

Well, that's me! Anyway, what are you doing today?

Why?

You have to have lunch with Tina and me today

No Raj, not today. l have to go to the library and then...

This is such a romantic place.

There must be a special reason... to bring me to such a romantic place?

Yes there is. What? - l'm hungry!

Tina! Look there!

Raj, why are you looking at young boys? - Didn't you see what he's reading?

''Love Story''... so?

Love stories are so boring aren't they? - You don't remember ''Love Story''?

lf you hang on to your old memories, how will you ever create new ones Raj?

What will you have? - You know what l like

''Gobi parathas''

Raj, l have to go. The youth festival is coming up and like every year...

my dance performance will be the best! Watch me! Everyone's waiting for me

Thanks you saved us today!

''Youth Festival''? Every year? Strange, she never wrote about it

l can't figure out why Tina seems different in person from her letters

Look Raj, you guys are meeting for the first time. Give her some time

You know Tina. She's a bit forgetful

And then again writing to someone and meeting face to face is so different

When l'm not with her, l imagine what it will like when we're together...

but when we are together, everything is very different...

Have you heard that song? You're in that state of mind...

Which song?

''lf you don't meet me l worry...''

''But when you do meet me l feel shy''

''What's wrong with you?''

Hey, ''paratha''! Who ordered?

You're such a little kid!

Dip hot ''parathas'' into cool yogurt. - And then straight into your mouth!

lt's more fun to have someone feed you

When do Tina's rehearsals get over? - By the evening

Did you go for your rehearsals or to a wholesale market?

l got to wear the perfect look. - And all this shopping just for that?

l couldn't make up my mind... - So you bought the entire store!

Pooja-Tina, we're home

Tina... don't you have something to say to me?

What? - Do l have to tell you...?

Not so fast - Fifteen years is not fast...

Hey Pooja do you think fifteen years is fast?

Even fifteen years weren't enough...

Why can't girls ever give a simple answer to a simple question?

That's not how we say good night in London

Hey Mr America, so tell me how do you say good-night in London?

You can't be so far away...

Your eyes can't be open...

Eat. lt's Sunday. You won't put on weight

Back from his jogging. He needs his cereal

Cereal-eater! You're missing ''parathas'' - That's one ''paratha''- paunch

No! That's my wife's love! - Here's some more. With love

There's this really good proposal... - Have you gone mad?

How can l get married a second time when you're still alive?

Oh be quiet! Do you have to joke all day long?

How can there be a proposal for you? lt's for Pooja

Nice people, the Vermas from London. They own 3 restaurants. The boy is nice

What...? - Really

Hear? Proposals for Pooja from London! After all, whose daughter is she?

Pooja wait. - What's it Mamma? l'm in a hurry

l have to meet Raj at 9:30. - Listen... here's a proposal for you

How many times do l have to say it? l'm not ready to get married

Alright.

Hear me out. A proposal from London! - From London?

Yes, they are very close friends. Rohan Verma is their son

Mamma, l'm not interested. Tell him. What was the name...? Tell Rohan Verma

Well, she's turned down the proposal without even seeing the boy!

After all whose daughter? - Eat

Raj, what's going on?

How will this look on Tina?

This will look beautiful on anyone

This is no ordinary pendant. Look

You really know how to break hearts!

Not breaking hearts. l'm reuniting hearts.

One half stays with me and the other with Tina

lsn't it amazing?

l wanted to show you before buying

Give me one more

One more? - For you

For me?

When you find someone special, give him one half

Finding someone special isn't so easy

l thought you wanted to wait a while?

You...? What are you doing here? What if Daddy sees you?

What if Daddy doesn't see me? - You're not as stupid as you look

Hey, Miss Universe, you're not as beautiful as you look

You're much more beautiful than that

Look at this... one half of this heart will be with me

And the other half... with you - Hey Mr America...

anyone can steal in here in the middle of the night and declare their love

l'll believe it when you say it in front of everyone

Then l will make you wear this pendant in front of everyone

Where do you think you're going? What if Daddy sees you?

Anyone can steal in here in the middle of the night through the window

''Today's guys l tell you, such morons! What to do ''

''Some ask me, how are you? Some ask me, how do you do''

''Never! Ever! Has any one said? Oh! My darling l love you''

''Hey! Today's girl, listen you, what l have to say you hear that too''

''l won't say how are you! l won't say how do you do!''

''Right here right now all l'll say is, Oh! My darling l love you''

''Today's guys l tell you, such morons! What to do''

''They want to meet up, hiding from all They want to go out, hiding from all''

''They want to meet up, hiding from all They want to go out, hiding from all''

''Where am l scared of any one? l just want you to be the only one''

''How am l supposed to know that? Hold my hand to prove that''

''Holding your hand you know what l will do''

''Then let's cross the seven seas Together we shall always be''

''Where will you do such a thing!''

''Then let's cross the seven seas Together we shall always be''

''With you l would never go, risking life to do so''

''Only if you drown in love, will you not fear God above''

''lf that's the matter l'll tell you Oh! My darling l love you''

Oh! My darling l love you

''Hey! Today's girls l tell you...''

''Hey! Today's boys l tell you...''

''l won't say how are you''

''l won't say how do you do''

''Right here, right now l'm going to say it...''

''Oh! My darling l love you!''

Like every year, this year too! The winner is Tina Kapoor

Don't move... l'm coming in

Look ahead. Smile

Excellent! Hold that

Tell me once more that you love me. - Once more?

Hey Mr America, that was just a song. Did you really believe it?

Hey Miss Universe... l was declaring my love for you in the song

Say it... you love me

Pooja where are you... come on

Hey come on Pooja

Say it. You love me

lt's late, good night

l'm going to change

Apart from this trophy, my son seems to have won another trophy

Really, and what's that?

Should l say it?

Here's my son's real victory. - Really...?

Yes

My daughter is naive

But we're sensible right? l like Tina! What do you say lady?

l've been longing for a daughter-in-law and Tina is like our own daughter

l can't believe this! Even after becoming such a successful man...

you want Tina as your daughter-in-law?

Hey, save these filmi dialogues for someone else

Money doesn't make a successful man. Can you ever put a value on friendship?

Look this is my promise to you. Tina will marry Raj

Wonderful! Wonderful! We must have a picture

What's happening to me? Nothing ever embarrassed me before

l've never felt anything in my heart for anyone before... but now...

whenever Raj... You know what l'm trying to say

But l don't know. What are you trying to say?

l didn't know you pray to Radha Kishen. l thought l knew everything about you

You've hidden quite a lot from me... - Raj! You shouldn't eavesdrop!

But you were talking about me... - Hey Mr America, what do you think?

l only think about you all the time?

Not all the time... maybe only all day? Only while you're awake?

Why? l could even dream of you when l'm sleeping?

Looks like that's where we'll meet next. - Why?

l have to go back Tina. Tomorrow. - Tomorrow? So soon?

l did write to you that l was coming only for two weeks

Wrote...? Oh your letters! Raj, can't you stay back a few more days?

Not possible, we're launching a website for a British company and then...

Hey what's the matter? - You're the one that's leaving...

and you're asking me what's the matter? - Hey, l'm going away...

but l will return. But l still haven't heard...

what l've been waiting to hear. Won't you say it once before l leave?

Fine... l too won't say it till you return

Now l'll have to return

You got to bring him back. Fast

You're still awake? - You too are still awake

l was saying bye to Tina - Bye...? Oh yes of course...

lts been two weeks and you have to launch that website...

See, you remember everything! Tina doesn't even remember l'm leaving

Maybe she didn't want to remember. - She still hasn't told me she loves me

Have you told her? - Do l need to?

Not something you say. lt's something to be understood.

Then maybe you don't understand... matters of the heart.

How do you do it Pooja?

How do you understand me so well? - What to do? l take you for a friend

l have to live up to it right? - Right...

What's up?

Beautiful song! lsn't it? - One of your favourites right?

This is the problem with these old cassettes

''l've fallen in love''

''Then why is my heart so afraid of love?''

''My heart says the road ahead is difficult''

''And the destination is unknown''

''l've fallen in love''

''l'm in love yet l am so afraid of love?''

l'll miss you pal

You'll have to come to London for your art course interview at some point

So why not come along with me?

How can l go until l hear from them? - lt'll be nice if you're there

l won't feel so far away from Tina. - Oh so that's why you want me there?

No Pooja, just joking... you've become such a good friend in these few days

What if l need my friend? - Close your eyes, think of me...

and l'll be there! - Promise?

l swear

You're lucky that she turned out the way she did...

if she was fat or dark, you'd be in trouble!

Ronnie, you only go by physical appearances?

lsn't that what you're doing? You're not looking at the other one at all

Who... Pooja ? - Pooja? Who's Pooja?

Pooja is our childhood friend - You really had some childhood

Tina on one side and Pooja on the other!

So tell me how was she, this childhood friend?

She knows me so well... she knows what l like to eat...

she loves Hindi songs just like me

Pooja? l thought you were talking about Tina

Papa, even though l really want to, l can't express what's in my heart

Some things are better left unsaid

And what if they're not heard because they're left unsaid?

lf you say them with a true heart, they'll always be heard

That's a big risk... what if Mr America turns out to be Mr Stupid?

You're really opening up your heart! You were so shy in front of the others

Watch me! The next time l'll say it in front of everyone...

''Close your eyes, think of me and l'll be there''

''Gobi parathas''

Ronnie, home-made lunch today? - No. Mummy is away. l'm eating burgers

You..? What are you doing here? - ''Gobi parathas''

And l was just thinking about you! - Didn't l tell you?

When you miss me, just close your eyes and think of me and l'll be there!

So here l am!

''Gobi parathas'' in London! Mind-blowing!

What's with Mummy and Daddy? They don't seem to want to return

Are they planning to settle down in Shimla again?

You know what Papa is like... he keeps postponing their tickets every week

And you? When is your interview? - Tomorrow

And then? - Since l've come all the way...

l'm thinking of staying on for a week l'll go shopping for everyone

Shopping later... you're in my town, l'm going to show you around

No work for a week... l'll show you London City!

What a lovely church this is! - lsn't it? l come here every Sunday

Oh this is the church!

''What will you be studying? - ''Art''

''Art? Tina fancies Art too''

''Love stories are so boring''

''Oh your letters...?''

''Writing to someone and meeting face to face is so different''

''l thought l knew everything about you. You've hidden quite a lot from me.''

''Finding someone special isn't so easy''

''Pooja what have you brought today? - Raj''

''Me...?''

''But you never emailed me''

''You don't understand matters of the heart''

''Maybe, you don't understand matters of the heart''

Tina doesn't even know this tune

Cricket posters in your room

The crucifix on your wall

Every Sunday, you go to church

On your bookshelf, ''Love Story''

''Gobi parathas''

None of these...

Tina knows nothing about these

Tina is not different from her letters

Tina is different from your letters

lt was you!

lt was you...?

You have to answer me! Why did you lie to me? Why this deception?

Why did you play this cruel joke on me? Why did you play with my heart?

Why Pooja? Why?

l'll recognise you the instant l see you... your image is in my heart

lsn't that what you wrote? l was waiting for you Raj

But at the station you didn't even look at me

You just walked past me

You never thought Tina could be Pooja because Tina is so beautiful!

Didn't we decide Raj that we would recognise each other's hearts?

But you fell for Tina's beauty...

You immediately tell for her

Raj the truth is that we always want the one we love to be most exotic

But that's not me Raj, that's not me

Tina doesn't admit it but l know she's in love with you and you know it too

This love is not right! This love was never Tina's to begin with

Tina will have to understand...

that l've always loved the person who wrote me the letters...

and Tina... wasn't the one. She's completely different

lf we turn this lie into the truth, then we'll suffer for it, Pooja...

you, Tina and l. There's only one truth in this lie Pooja...

only one truth...

the truth...

that l love

l've always... loved only you

Only you

No Raj

Nothing else... nothing else, Pooja. We had to come together Pooja

Your coming for the interview, humming that tune in this church...

all this has happened for a reason

He's the one who decided we should be together Pooja

He brought us together

And He will make sure we stay together forever...

together forever

No Raj, it's too late Raj

lt's too late, Raj. Too late

''God knows since when you're in my heart''

''Since l'm there you've been with me''

''l promise...''

''you're the only one in my heart till eternity''

''God knows since when you're in my heart''

''Since l'm there you've been with me''

''l promise...''

''you're the only one in my heart till eternity''

''Life is like a long path''

''Where people just keep walking by''

''Whom are you waiting for then''

''Walk along till the end''

''l've been waiting all this while...''

''since, l've met you in my life''

''God knows since when you're in my heart''

''Since l'm there you've been with me''

''l promise...''

''you're the only one in my heart till eternity''

''For an eternity''

''Love is like a sacrifice''

''Which people always have to bare''

''Let us take this sacrifice''

''To show that we really care''

''l'll do anything for you...''

''to show that l love you too''

''God knows since when you're in my heart''

''Since l'm there you've been with me''

''l promise...''

''you're the only one in my heart till eternity''

Come, let's go back to Shimla and tell everyone the truth

These bangles have been in our family for years...

every daughter-in-law wears them. When Ma sees you wearing them...

she'll understand everything

Now l've given you all my gold and my diamonds

And now... for once...? - Not now. After the wedding

That's the problem with lndian girls! Everything's after-we're-married

lf you're in such a rush, why not find yourself an English girl?

After-we're-married
