Original subtitles

Rob doesn't know anything about keyboards. He begins every song in D major.

Adi, have you written any lyrics?

Yeah.

There are so many things in life that we don't think about...

And those things are...

Why is the sky blue?

Why is the water so wet?

Why is the earth round?

Rob, let's start it with a good riff.

Then I'll introduce the texture.

How's that, KD?

No one takes over in this band.

That's why we're called Magik.

Why is the sky blue?

Why is the water so wet?

Why is the earth round?

What makes silk soft?

What makes fire hot?

Why doesn't two and two make five?

Why are the trees vanishing?

Why do we have three seasons?

Why don't we have two moons?

Why is there war?

Why is blood red?

And why are there borders everywhere?

Did you ever think about this?

Did you?

Did you ever think about this?

What's this all about?

Did you ever think about this?

If you haven't, Then think about it now

Why do all rivers flow?

What's light? Did you know?

What makes snow fall?

Why do friends keep falling out?

Why do stars fall?

Why is there lightning in clouds?

Did you ever think about this?

Did you?

Did you ever think about this?

What's this all about?

Did you ever think about this?

If you haven't, Then think about it now

Silence can't be heard

And the wind can't be seen

Did you ever think about this?

Did you?

Why is the sky blue?

Why is the water so wet?

Why is the earth round?

What makes silk soft?

What makes fire hot?

Why don't two and two make five?

Why are the trees vanishing?

Why are there only three seasons?

Why aren't there two moons?

Why is there war?

Why is blood red?

Why are there borders everywhere?

Did you ever think about this?

Did you?

Did you ever think about this?

What's this all about?

Did you ever think about this?

If you haven't, Then do it now

Did you ever think about this?

Did you?

Did you ever think about this?

What's this all about?

Did you ever think about this?

If you haven't, Then do it now

A son told his father,

"Papa, Mummy thinks you're an angel."

The father asked him, "Really, did Mom say that?"

The son said, "Yes. She said that you've got wings!"

Come on, Andy. It's time for bed. You'll be late for school tomorrow.

Let's go.

You are playing the flute in the song.

It'll drive people crazy. They'll go mad!

Can I go now, Anu?

Devika asked us if we're going to join them in Alibaug for the weekend.

I won't be able to make it. You should go.

She has invited both of us. Come on, Adi.

It's been more than a year since we went on a holiday.

I might go to Hong Kong in August.

Come along...

if you wish.

Good morning, sir.

- Who was that? - I met him in Goa at Singhi's party.

He followed me all the way to Bombay.

With a single-minded pursuit?

Who knows, he might write a chapter on me.

He's creative.

Anyway, Aditya and you are coming to Alibaug, aren't you?

No... Aditya can't come.

God! Is he married to you or his job?

Hey, did I say something wrong?

I mean... you're neither interested in what I say, nor in what I design?

Are they so awful?

Sometimes when I see you...

You're living the life you want.

You are an interior designer and an independent woman.

Writers are chasing you all the way from Goa.

You're saying this?

You are happily married. You live a peaceful life.

Remember, it was you who told me, "I'm happily married."

Yes, I'm happily married and perhaps...

I'll be a mother soon.

Aditya must be jumping with joy.

No... I haven't told him yet.

I thought, before I give him a shock, I'd better confirm with a gynecologist.

What shock? Don't you want a baby?

No, that's not it...

It's just that... only Aditya knows what he wants and what he doesn't want.

Well, it's like living with a stranger who loves me

and who cares for me. But I'll never know what's in his heart and soul.

You'll only find stock market quotes.

I don't know, Devika. Maybe, I'm just nervous about this baby.

Anyway, I'll have to tell him, sooner or later...

- maybe on his birthday. - Next week?

I want to buy him a gift. Please help me.

- Have you had lunch? - I've been waiting for you.

Do you remember your promise about the new tune?

But I'll teach it to you, only when you play the earlier tune without mistakes.

Come on.

Deliver the goods to Kadam's right now.

And come back with the money, even if you have to wait all day.

But get the money today. Got it? Go!

Leave the goods here. Come and take your money tomorrow.

Madam, I need the money now.

Why do you trouble me every day? I told you to come at eleven o'clock.

- Eleven o'clock? - Yes.

- Sure? - Yes.

Andy, how was school today?

Nothing unusual.

Eat your lunch.

The fisherwomen were here again. They piss me off.

What should I do? There's no fish, the rates are low

and the wholesale market is down. There is no profit at all.

It's the same old fish again.

I eat the same food every day.

Sorry Nana, I can't do any better.

I am at the market all day. Then I had to handle the fisherwomen.

I don't have the time to cook.

The fish smell never goes away!

Did Lionel call you for that show?

No.

Why don't you call him?

We need the money. There're endless bills to pay.

But no one watches Lionel Uncle's show. He doesn't even know how to tune a guitar.

If you play the guitar, you won't be demeaned in any way.

We have never done anything so cheap.

Why haven't you sent the necklace?

You were responsible for the delivery.

Girish Bhai has called us four times today. What should I tell him?

Saying sorry doesn't help the situation.

Well... go deliver it yourself this evening. Get it?

Go.

Devika, this is perfect.

Give me Girish Bhai's package.

- Can you inscribe "Aditya" on the back? - Sure.

Why? Can't it be done?

It's not that...

I had a friend called Aditya. His birthday was also on July 22nd.

This Aditya...

He's my husband.

What's his name?

Aditya Shroff.

Is he fair and lean?

He has long hair.

He is dangerously shortsighted but chooses not to wear spectacles

and writes wonderfully.

You're definitely talking of some other Aditya.

I think I got carried away.

It'll be ready by day after.

The same name and the same birthday.

What's your name?

If he's the same Aditya, he'll know.

Have you ever been unhappy about your investments with us?

We manage most of the foreign investments in the market.

Yes.

Sleep peacefully.

Sure, sir.

My best wishes to your wife. Thank you.

The management has decided to give you a promotion.

Why don't we celebrate your promotion and birthday together?

No, don't bother throwing a party.

I'll just take my colleagues out to lunch tomorrow.

Whenever you make any plans, it's with your colleagues.

Is your social life incomplete without them?

Sakshi... that's life.

Something strange thing happened today.

Do you know any Killer Drummer?

Do you know a guy called Killer Drummer?

No.

Killer Drummer... such a strange name.

Where did you meet him?

At a jewelry store.

Devika needed to buy something and we were talking about you.

And he said he knew an Aditya Shroff who wrote poetry.

As we spoke, I discovered that the other Aditya Shroff's birthday...

is also on July 22nd.

Isn't it strange?

Let's go to sleep.

Sinbad the Sailor sailed away one day...

Looking for his way

Give me a minute.

It's not working.

Shall we try something new, Rob?

KD, please start and I'll join you on the fourth bar.

Joe broke the glass

Debbie boxed his ears

We all laughed at how you got stuck

And just like that, Joe left the band

- Packed my business cards? - Yeah.

Where were you?

Get me another bag.

Adi, please go ahead.

I'll send your suitcase to the office.

Okay, get another bag from the loft.

Wait... I'll come along.

There's a lot of mess in there.

Take this box out. Give it away.

Wait... take this along.

What's that package up there? Bring it down.

Keep it here.

Open it.

Okay, I'll check it.

I left some papers on the side table. Please put them away.

Where is Aditya? What's he doing now?

- You should have brought him along. - He's in Delhi.

I'm planning a surprise party at home for him on May 22nd.

If you and the rest of the band comes in...

We should've had a reunion...

but I didn't know that Aditya was in Bombay.

And it's been ages since I've spoken to Rob and Joe.

Anyway, did Aditya say anything about us?

No, I was hoping you'd tell me more.

It's impossible to recognize him.

And this is you?

Everything's changed. Including my hairstyle.

That's Joe. He's our lead guitarist.

Aditya always said that Joe's fingers made magic

and Joe said that about Aditya's voice.

That's why our band was called Magik.

Well... when Aditya arrived in Bombay, he lived with Joe for three months.

That's Rob. He's the backbone of our band.

He did all the programming and the bass sections.

I'm sure you know this poet, don't you?

One fine day he says, "Let's go to Goa!"

Don't pack. Let's go.

We just set off.

It was Aditya's dream that Magik should have a driving tour.

And there should be no turning back.

And all of us believed that it would turn out exactly like that.

In our twenties, we think that the world will dance to our tune.

Sorry, I'm talking so much.

No. You've told me so much.

I'll talk to Rob and Joe. I can't assure you about their presence.

Please try and bring them along.

What took you so long?

Yes, buddy.

- Where are you? - When can you meet me?

Tell me.

KD, turn down the volume.

That was my friend from Channel V. I styled some of his shows.

He called me with some special news.

You're lucky.

There is a contest.

Guys, the winning band gets to cut an album and make a music video.

We'll need a new equipment.

Good cymbals for KD. A new mike for you, Adi.

You need a new distortion pedal.

And I need another tea.

Uncle Khursheed, I need some tea.

We'll need about fifty-five thousand rupees.

The band's savings are twenty thousand rupees.

Maybe I can wangle five thousand from Dad.

So that's twenty-five thousand rupees. So...

Thirty thousand rupees, Einstein!

I have some cash...

I have about three or four thousand rupees.

I can give you that.

I've got the same amount.

Adi, can't you ask your dad?

He won't give me money. I know it.

It's my punishment for not doing an MBA.

I'll call him.

There's a way out. Raghav Yedekar.

Sounds like a goon.

He organizes shows to showcase music from the old films.

It's totally different from our music.

The audience is different too.

Old film music?

We'll need a sitar, harmonium and ten tablas. Guitars and keyboards won't help.

Really Rob, I can't do it either.

Who says we can't play old songs on guitars and drums?

We'll choose our songs and do them in our style.

ORCHESTRA MAGIK AT NAVRATRI UTSAV.

Just like breath is needed...

Just like breath is needed for life

Yes, a sweetheart is needed,

For love

Just like a flame is needed,

Just like a flame is needed,

For light

Yes, a sweetheart is needed,

For love

This is the day, In the season of youth

When the eyes meet, And even water catches fire

This is the day, In the season of youth

So, Aditya doesn't know about the party?

That's called a surprise party.

Let's see how he takes the surprise.

And... what's new?

I saw an ad on TV, some time ago. And the music sounded like yours.

Yes.

You're lucky, Rob.

Are you still making music after all these years?

I don't know how to do anything else, KD.

And you? Still drumming?

No.

I don't remember the last time I touched the drumsticks.

But now you can afford the world's best drum kit.

Yes, I can.

I don't even have to go to a dance class.

Dance class?

Yeah! We bought the equipment from a dance class.

How can I tell you...

What my heart says?

You'd think, maybe I'm insane

How can I tell you What my heart says?

You'd think, maybe I'm insane

I want to get to the top of the tower

Scream out loud and say...

Rock On! It's the sign of the times

Rock On! Every moment beckons

Rock On! What are you waiting for?

Rock On! You only live once

Hey, buddy!

My heart tells me... To scream out loud

Everyone... Should open their minds

Then I'll sing them my spirited songs

Let them join in and raise the cry

Rock On! It's the sign of the times

Rock On! Every moment beckons

Rock On! What are you waiting for?

Rock On! You only live once

Just live your life...

The way you always wanted to

All I've got to say is that...

Make every single dream come true!

The world's full of snakes

They bite everyone

Sitting upon their coils

Hood outstretched

Snakes hiss

Snakes hiss

Toxic

Blacks, blues, yellows

Eyes of stone...

And sharp fangs

The world is a jungle of snakes

There's a hood in every face

Sitting upon their coils

Hood outstretched

Hissing, waiting to strike

Toxic!

Blacks, blues, yellows

Eyes of stone... And sharp fangs

Come on.

Relax.

Now, our next band is from Mumbai.

Fans say that there's magic in their music.

I need your help for the next song.

Will you sing with me?

Everybody, sing with me.

Now... sing when I raise my hand.

One of my laundry bills... An unfinished novel...

A girl's phone number... A useful piece of paper...

There was a king of hearts... In my deck

And one of my silver rings...

When I look at What I lost this week

Some days I laughed at myself And some days I cried

One of my laundry bills

An unfinished novel

A girl's phone number

A useful piece of paper

There was a king of hearts... In my deck

And one of my silver rings

When I look at What I lost this week

Some days I laughed at myself

Some days I cried

I was gifted a watch...

I loved it so much

A packet of Mary Jane

My old denim jacket

Two passes for a cricket match

My brand-new sunglasses

When I look at What I lost this week

Some days I laughed at myself And some days I cried

How can I forget about the seventh day?

Someone introduced me to you at a party

What happened... When I saw you for the first time?

When we first met...

I felt it was true love

I lost my senses...

And my heart too

Some days I laughed at myself And some days I cried

I lost all of this in the week gone by

One of my laundry bills

An unfinished novel

A girl's phone number

A useful piece of paper

One of my laundry bills

An unfinished novel

A girl's phone number

A useful piece of paper

When we first met

I felt...

It was true love

I lost my senses And my heart too

Some days I laughed at myself And some days I cried

Now... let's find out about the winner of the contest.

The winners get an album contract. And... one music video.

I'm all nerves.

Can you tell...

which lucky band's name is in this envelope?

They're screaming for us!

Leave him.

Joe! What are you doing?

Look at this.

Someone insulted Aditya and Joe broke out in a rash.

And now...

Where's Joe these days?

I ran into him some months ago, at Purple Haze Studio.

He has so much talent but no business sense.

Joe... will he learn to market himself someday?

Let's go meet him.

It'll be great if you invite him to Aditya's party.

Don't try to use me.

Come on, Rob. You always knew how to handle them.

That's why we tolerated you in the band.

Anybody in?

How are you?

How are you doing?

All okay?

Yeah.

I teach guitar to kids in the neighborhood.

And occasionally, I perform at the club.

You're still performing on stage!

It's nothing like those concerts.

Here, people hang around, party, talk and drink.

The music doesn't matter to them.

Once upon a time, I played in a club.

I felt like hurling my keyboard at the crowd.

Why didn't you do that?

You could have put the keyboard to some use.

Did you know that even Aditya is here in Bombay?

Really?

No... how would I know?

His wife came to my store

and...

She has invited us home...

for Aditya's birthday party.

On the 22nd...

Look who's here!

- Who's this? - Andrew.

Magik's drummer?

How old is he?

He'll turn eight this year.

Debbie, I'll give it to you!

You don't look like the mother of an eight-year-old.

But you look like a typical businessman in this attire.

Even Rob looks different with this hairstyle, doesn't he?

Long hair is no longer in vogue.

Really? Is that you talking?

You used to comb your hair before brushing your teeth!

Why don't you admit it that you're losing your hair?

Show me how you'd flick the sticks in the air and catch them.

Hey, who told you?

Who else?

Andy listens to just one story before bed. Magik's story.

Debbie, we're planning a reunion next week at Aditya's house.

Why don't you join us and bring Andrew along?

So the two of you are here with a message from Aditya, the star?

It's not like that, Debbie.

Where were you for all these years? Why do you want to meet now?

Debbie is really stressed out because of work.

next time, I'll show you the magic of drumsticks.

Andy, say "bye."

It'll be nice, if you guys come.

They come home after so long with an invite from Aditya.

If it was so important, couldn't he have spoken himself?

It's a surprise party, Debbie. His wife is organizing it.

Keep away from them.

Being with them has caused you a lot of pain.

Last time, you got hurt.

I wonder what they want now!

Nobody hurt me.

I was the one who quit.

So are you defending them now?

Should you go whenever they call you?

No, Debbie.

I'll wear a collar and stay right by you.

You think that I...

Do whatever you want.

Listen, you better tell the music company that I'm styling Magik's video.

Or you'll end up wearing these shorts and a T-shirt.

What's wrong with my shorts?

If I show my legs, it will add to the sex appeal of the video.

This is our big break.

Our lottery ticket to the future.

Now we have to get the right numbers.

When you're around...

I feel like...

I've found every joy

When you're gone...

It feels like...

Every joy has faded

You're the one...

My life needs

It's a great tune.

We need another song for the album and I think we've found it.

What do you think, Adi?

I want to dedicate it to Debbie.

It'll be your wedding anthem.

When it's played in church, all will rise.

Tell me. What do you think of this song?

And when you sing it in your style, it'll be even better.

Adi...

when we meet the music company...

make sure you tell them about Debbie.

You could tell them yourself.

Yeah, but she's my girlfriend and...

it'll be a little odd.

You'll tell them, won't you?

There's another surprise for you.

We're not ghosts.

I'll join you.

I'm glad you came.

Aditya is happy too.

- He's always busy with work. - Really?

Your friends are getting bored.

What should I do? We have other guests as well.

All right, I'm going.

When did you pick up this habit?

Well...

Cigarettes are bad for your voice.

What does my voice have to do with investment banking?

Remember losing your voice before a show in college...

and Debbie forcing you to drink that herbal tonic.

I'll never forget your face.

Whatever it was, it was effective.

She also gave you some medicine to improve my memory, didn't she?

It didn't help me.

What do you mean?

I still remember that it was effective.

- Joe didn't come along? - He must be on his way...

Where is he?

Obviously, Sakshi doesn't know anything about Magik.

I never felt the need to tell her about it.

Sometimes, it feels like all this happened in another life

and sometimes as if it was yesterday.

Why don't we get together again at our old rehearsal pad?

Tomorrow's Sunday. Let's do it.

But first, we'll meet at Cafe Army.

I don't know.

One o'clock?

Rob, you, me... and Joe will turn up.

The four of us will be together again.

Why do we need all four of us?

Even two or three can jam together.

But it won't be Magik.

I wanted to meet your friend Joe.

How did you like meeting your friends?

Sakshi, you shouldn't have invited them.

Why?

Why did you tell me that you didn't know them?

Because I don't know them anymore.

We have drifted apart.

They were so uncomfortable.

They were our guests.

And guests are like God.

I felt that you were uncomfortable.

Why are you getting involved in these things?

Look...

Isn't that you?

I thought that if you met your friends again, you'd feel good.

Maybe, it would bring back this smile.

Why are you spying?

Spying?

I want to see you happy.

Why are you doing this?

Stop it! What's wrong with you?

Look at yourself! Look at what you've become!

People change over the years.

I'm not the Aditya you see in these pictures.

You're right... the man in these pictures is happy.

I'm happy!

If you're happy, then why don't I feel it?

Why does it feel like you're living a mechanical life?

Now you have a problem with my life?

It's not me. You have a problem with your life.

That's why you keep me at a distance.

Why do you feel so bad about me seeing these pictures?

These pictures mean nothing.

Then why have you kept them so carefully?

You could have thrown them away or burnt them.

Destroy them. It does not matter to me.

I cut these ties a long time ago.

Maybe you lost a lot when you cut these ties?

- Did you think of that? - What have I lost?

Only you know that.

If something's disturbing you--

Think what you want.

Ten years ago, I chose this life.

Yes, I made some compromises... but who doesn't?

Am I one of the compromises in your life?

Is our marriage also a compromise?

You're angry with yourself.

And your anger is hurting our relationship.

I want to be a part of your life.

But how is it possible when you're living only half a life!

And to make my life complete, you invited them to the party?

I made a mistake.

I thought you'd be happy to meet your friends.

And then I was going to tell you that you're going to be a father.

Now I don't even know, if hearing this makes you happy or not.

I'm going to Mom's house.

I need time to think.

I knew I'd find you here.

Why didn't you come yesterday?

You know it.

Look, whatever happened ten years ago affected all our lives.

The difference is, KD and I accepted it.

But you couldn't.

Even Aditya hasn't.

These things come and go.

We got together to fulfill our dream and our passion to create music.

But you forgot about it.

Being successful was important to you.

Isn't success important?

Your success was Magik's success.

Just imagine where we'd all be today, if all that hadn't happened.

What do you want from me?

What can I do now?

We're meeting today. One o'clock, at Uncle Khursheed's cafe.

Life doesn't give everyone a second chance.

One o'clock.

- Clean up table number two. - All right.

Uncle Khursheed...

Do you recognize me?

No.

One tea, please.

Dilip, I need some tea.

Did Adi have to be late today of all days?

Well...

Sorry. I'm late, guys.

Come on... we have only two minutes left.

Don't forget to tell them about Debbie.

I won't forget, Joe.

Don't make me nervous. Come on.

So how do you feel?

We're confident. Just show us the way to the recording studio.

Look kids... just recording the music doesn't make it a hit.

Your music must appeal to the masses.

But... you liked our music, didn't you?

It's good...

But could be better... much, much, much better.

A popular number.

I'll get it from you, of course.

October to January is the wedding season, right?

Let's take a hit wedding song...

and do a rock remix.

But...

a wedding remix in a rock album?

Why... is it against the law to do that?

Anything can happen.

The main thing is, the album should be a hit.

We'll take the slow song out... it won't work.

You know, the one which goes like, "If you're there, I'm here or not here..."

It's the only soft, romantic ballad that gives our album some depth.

Nowadays, this doesn't sell, kid.

Tempo... give me tempo.

Today's youth want songs with some tempo.

If you agree with what I'm saying...

here's the contract.

Boys...

one needs to make some compromises in life.

Seven out of eight songs are of your choice.

And one...

that I want...

Besides, there's no dearth of talent in the market.

Another thing. We have a friend, Debbie. She is into costume design and styling.

We thought if you could use her for our music video.

Relax! Now you're the responsibility of this company.

At least meet her once.

You get to work in the recording studio and let us do our work.

I feel terrible about Joe's song being rejected.

It's not just about my song.

It's our debut album.

To push a stupid remix into it... I think we're making a big compromise.

In that case, we shouldn't have signed it.

But now that we have, there's really no point in talking about it.

If we hadn't done it, someone else would have.

They won't let you do the styling.

They say, they already have someone.

But they haven't even seen her work!

Seven out of eight songs are selected. It's not that bad.

Unfortunately, we need them now.

Once this album is a hit, we'll be free to do whatever we want.

You're about to record your first album. What more do we want?

Sweetheart, it leaves me cold.

Do something, darling.

So why don't you tell me what to play. I'll do as you say.

Go on.

Yeah, sure.

have you worked on a lot of albums?

The Subhash Ghai film, Karz... starring Rishi Kapoor...

All of you, get out.

Now, can we have Aditya's close ups?

Your shot's done? But you just went in...

Aditya's close ups again.

We look like clowns in these clothes. Why couldn't they let you style us?

And this director... keeps asking me to jump.

If I keep jumping, when will I play the keyboards?

What's the matter?

You'll see what the matter is Aditya...

if you'd only take off your rockstar shades.

What... maybe you didn't notice that the director's focusing only on you.

The three of us are in the background, like sidekicks.

Do we look like a rock band?

Do you think I'm happy in these clothes?

Drop it, Joe.

Aditya is our lead singer, he has to be the focus.

Whatever's happening here, isn't right.

No one takes over in Magik! Do you remember your words?

You got one chance at getting famous and you forget all your principles.

Let's talk in the room.

Do you think I knew this would happen when we signed the contract?

But I'm a professional, Joe. Maybe you should try to be one.

You've sold out.

That director was treating us so badly. Did you stop him even once?

What's going on here?

This studio doesn't come for free.

We need a short break. We've got something to discuss.

Discussions later, darling. The shoot is held up.

- Let's go. - Please go away.

I said, please go away.

Keep this attitude at home.

You signed a contract, you'll do as I say.

Got it? Come on, darling.

Joe! Have you gone mad?

Blood! It's blood!

Get lost! I don't want to know!

Damn your album!

It's over.

Sir, please wait.

I'll make sure you're finished!

I am Sukhani!

To hell with your contract...

I quit

After all these years...

- nothing's changed here. - It's been a long time.

Joe?

You're here after ages!

- All okay? - Fine, Uncle Khursheed. How are you?

I'm good.

- A tea, please. - Sure.

- Serve him some tea. - What a sharp memory.

You carry it everywhere.

So, it stays in the mind.

Are they coming?

- Your jeep is still alive? - Of course. Together, in life and death!

Was that too much?

- When did you get here? - Ten minutes ago.

Where's Adi? Should I call him?

No, KD.

He'll come if he wants to.

I don't really understand what happened.

Everything was perfect and then suddenly, it just all went wrong.

Perhaps you never noticed that something was troubling her.

What?

What does she have to complain about me?

For four years, we've shared everything. What more can I do?

You can do a lot.

You may have been sharing a home.

But you aren't sharing your lives.

Sakshi still feels that you're a stranger.

And her feelings got stronger when she discovered those photographs.

Damn those photos and damn that band!

It's been ten years.

When will it stop chasing me?

When you stop running...

The prices have increased over the years.

What should I do?

I guess we should go.

Did you really think he'd come?

Okay.

Shall we try something?

Shall we begin?

One of my laundry bills...

An unfinished novel...

A girl's phone number... A useful piece of paper...

There was a king of hearts... In my deck

And one of my silver rings... When I... this last...

The right pitch is two notes higher.

Is that so?

Why don't you show us?

One of my laundry bills...

An unfinished novel...

A girl's phone number... A useful piece of paper...

There was a king of hearts... In my deck

And one of my silver rings...

When I look at What I lost this week

Some days I laughed at myself And some days I cried

Sorry, I couldn't make it to your party last night.

Let's not get too sentimental.

Let's make some music now?

But not here. Look at the state of this place.

Why?

Are you used to air-condition now?

You've lost your hair. What difference will it make to you?

Guys... listen up...

let's go to my place.

Come on.

Will somebody help me? I'm not a twenty-five-year-old any more.

We are not at home. Please leave a message.

You were right, I am upset with life.

But if you're going to ignore me like this...

my relationship with life will only get worse.

You were right. I've been living only half a life.

But if you leave like this, even that half-a-life will be no more.

Yes. You're right, I keep you at a distance.

But today the distance is so wide that...

I'm talking to your answering machine and not to you.

I never thought this would happen.

Come home, Sakshi.

Good afternoon, sir.

- How are you, Bahadur? - I'm fine, sir.

Put it down here.

Namdeo, get the extension cord as well.

Adi... here?

Yes.

I mean, everything looks so perfect here.

Adi, are you allowed?

KD... this is my home.

Come on, give me a hand.

Go.

Thank you for coming to Magik Re-United's first concert.

On the lead guitar, we have Joe. Nowadays, he attends fewer parties.

On the keyboard, we have Rob...

- Keep it down. - Okay.

Our conversations... I wish, they go on forever

Our sweet meetings... I hope, they go on forever

Remember?

Of course, but we never finished composing it. Let's try?

- Do you remember Sindbad the Sailor? - Yes.

Scale?

In conversations

We'll find new words of love

Then, with those words...

We'll write a song

A song...

That fills hearts... all hearts...

With love

Let our words...

Become songs

And let the words...

Melt into tunes

I didn't know you had so much hidden talent.

There's a hotshot producer here. Meet him today.

Sorry, not today. Some other time.

It's urgent.

To turn sorrow into joy

Sing that song of love

And anyone who hears our song will say...

Sing again

Our conversations...

I wish, they go on forever

Our sweet meetings

I hope, they go on forever

For all our days and nights... forever

In conversations

We'll find new words of love

Then, with those words...

We'll write a song

A song...

That fills hearts...

All hearts...

With love

Let our words...

Become songs

And let words...

In our conversations...

Melt into tunes

Here you go. This settles your account.

Where are you going? You have to pick up Andrew from school.

Will you pick him up today, please?

You've been staying out all day.

I was...

going to the studio... I might land some work.

Studio?

Purple Haze in Bandra. Rob has fixed some meetings.

You keep saying that I ought to look for work.

So, in the past few weeks I've been doing the rounds of studios.

Okay... fine.

Look, channel V's talent hunt is up next month, on the 24th.

Winners will get an album contract.

What do you think? Should we enter it?

One minute.

Jamming indoors is one thing, performing on stage is quite another.

After all these years, can we perform on stage?

Why not?

What's time got to do with rock and roll?

KD, I know you so well. You'll do all this, just to impress girls.

Sakshi, if it impresses your friend Devika...

I have no problem.

I'll make sure that your message reaches her.

Are we taking part in this contest?

Yes, Joe.

This is my last chance.

Just think, it's not as if we have to prove anything to the world.

If we do this, it's only for ourselves...

to finish the journey, we began ten years ago.

Wow! When is the contest? Can I come?

I haven't told Mom about it yet.

Why?

I want to give her a surprise...

So, keep it...

zipped.

I've something to tell you...

Joe's here too. I'll talk to him.

Sandra had called me. Do you remember her?

Her husband Pete is a chef on the Blue Line Cruise.

His ship is on a six-month voyage.

They need musicians. The money is very good.

Pete has already spoken about you.

So, you've planned to exile me?

Stop joking! Where will you find a better offer?

Just imagine, you get to travel the world.

The company provides bed and board. All you have to do is play the guitar

and make money.

When is it sailing?

On the 24th of next month, I think.

24th?

Yes, I think so. But before that you have to do an audition.

Joe, come on. They don't know how well you play the guitar.

You are an expert.

- It was good. - Let's try some disco beats.

Rob is trained well by Anu Malik.

Steaming hot.

But it can become...

Well... are we going to Channel V tomorrow?

What time?

But don't worry. This time, we just fill up some forms.

I have a headache.

I took pills in the morning.

Pills... what are your plans after the rehearsal?

I heard that you guys broke up?

We were on a break.

It will be a pleasure to see you on stage.

And just look at your luck.

This time, there's no competition.

Especially since Chakravyuh has stopped performing.

You're the lucky one.

You lost then and this time, you wouldn't stand a chance.

Well, you can't win everything in life.

The channel is hosting a party tomorrow night for the contestants.

Yesterday, we went for the sonography.

KD, where's Rob?

He should be here anytime.

And you always look great, Devika.

You are a 40-year-old virgin.

- You will know when I'm 40. - You're not a virgin.

- Wait. - Hold on.

- Get some water. Fast. - Water, please.

Tanya, after what happened today, it's best that I leave.

I can't say when I'll meet you again.

What are you doing here?

The last time we met... was...

How's Debbie?

Of course, you know each other.

Remember, he and Joe had a fight...

We were so immature.

Back then, even I thought Ajay was a little weird.

But after we became friends, I got to know that he's a nice guy.

I knew that you wouldn't come back.

Then, you knew more about me than I did.

Let bygones be bygones.

But at least, you've got a second chance, to perform with Magik.

Life's not generous with everyone.

You know, I had put all that music behind me.

It's happening all over again.

Tanya is a very old friend of mine.

I wanted to thank you.

Me?

If I hadn't seen your photographs, I'd have never known Aditya had a band.

Save the guests. I'll be right back.

KD... I don't know these songs.

You have to sing.

KD... I only know Hindi songs.

It has been a strange story

The way it began And the way it ended

Destiny awaits us

Neither does he know, nor do I

It has been a strange story

The way it began And the way it ended

Destiny awaits us

Neither does he know, nor do I

Why does smoke... obscure the lamplight?

Why does smoke... obscure the lamplight?

In my dream...

I have woken up from another dream

- Talk to him... - But Rob isn't answering my call.

- He must be busy. - But he would answer...

Let's go to his place.

Adi, talk to him.

It's on our way back, let's go there.

I'll drop you to the car.

Hey, Rob.

Adi, take the next right.

So, what if there's no way?

Just hang on... hang on... we're reaching the hospital.

Can you see this?

but your friend has grade four brain tumor.

Have you told Rob... that he has brain tumor?

He knows it.

He tells me he's had some chemotherapy sessions.

And he's taking medication too.

Why didn't he tell us?

What would it do?

You'd reunite Magik as poor Rob's dying...

I didn't want that.

If we are to get together again, it has to be because...

we believe in Magik's music and we believe in each other.

But you don't believe that we're your friends.

It's not that, KD. This tumor has become a part of my brain.

I'm beyond cure. That's a fact.

Two days, two months, two years...

How much longer will I live? I'm sick of thinking about that.

Dr. Shetty is the country's best neurosurgeon.

I'll talk to him.

We'll shift you to his personal clinic.

Our show is on the 24th... day after tomorrow.

Have you gone mad?

This show is very important for me, perhaps my last chance.

You know how worried I've been?

After you left, the cruise guys called me.

The ship is leaving tomorrow.

What's the matter, Joe?

And all these days, you were lying to me?

For Majik...

Can't you see there's no future in it?

Whenever it comes to this band, why does your brain switch off, Joe?

You're going on that cruise and that's final.

I've got another chance to do what I've always wanted to...

I don't know how to do anything else.

And now Rob...

Agreed, what happened to Rob is terrible.

But don't you see that your wife has been dying a slow death for ten years?

And Andy...

have you ever considered his future?

In life, you've got to make compromises.

I wanted to become a fashion designer.

And what about Magik? Do you want to be a rock star at this age?

Have you learnt nothing in ten years? Are you ready to trust the same man again?

Ma'am, Debbie is here to meet sir.

Ask her to wait. I'm coming.

I've met your son Andrew.

Oh... it's showing.

- Is Aditya in? - Yes, please wait in that room.

I'll call him.

I've been asking Joe about you for ages.

Like always.

Some people have all the luck, they get whatever they want

Like you

You were a hero in college.

And now, a successful businessman.

Fantastic house!

Pretty wife.

And soon, a father.

You are everything a man can ask for...

I can't tell if you're complimenting me or not.

I'm just speaking the truth.

Or you can think that...

I'm pointing out what sets you apart from Joe.

Joe... Joe isn't lucky like you, Aditya.

He's fought against life at every step.

And such was his luck...

most often, he failed.

Please, stop showing him these new dreams.

When these dreams shatter, the shards will wound my life and Andrew's life.

What are you trying to say?

If Joe goes for the show tomorrow, he'll lose a very good job.

He still has a fever. 102 degrees.

The fever will vanish, the moment I get out of here.

Rob, please be serious.

They don't become doctors overnight.

What if something happens on stage?

Guys, if you think negative, I'll collapse.

Imagine...

tomorrow, we'll be on stage, there'll be lights and a huge audience.

There'll be music...

in its every beat and every note, there will be life.

Life.

I want to live one night to the fullest before I die.

You should save your energy for tomorrow.

But if I have to go, then why not with a bang.

My eyes speak of bright stars

Colorful places

And open meadows

My thoughts speak of dancing shores

Where I stand alone, waiting for you

My dreams feel just like heaven

I'm just a traveler passing through

My eyes speak of bright stars

Colorful places

And open meadows

My thoughts speak of dancing shores

Where I stand alone, waiting for you

My dreams feel just like heaven

I'm just a traveler passing through

Don't let this moment pass us by...

As we talk

- Where's Sakshi? - She's watching the concert with Devika

Where's Joe?

I don't think Joe will turn up.

What do you mean?

Debbie came to see me last night.

She said...

Joe's got a job on some ship and he's leaving.

I was still hopeful that he'd turn up.

Even after a decade, Magik is still stuck in the same rut.

We always get caught in this big ego clash...

between you and Joe.

Are you the only one with a personal problem? What about us?

Forget it.

That's the problem, I can't let go!

Aditya and Joe may be able to.

We can't go on stage without Joe.

Why not? If it's vital for Joe to be on that ship...

it's vital for me to be on stage.

And no one can stop me!

Even if I have to play the drums for twenty minutes on my own, I'll still go!

We have to reach the airport in fifteen minutes.

Andy, turn around.

It's been ten years since Magik performed...

but the wait isn't over yet.

This is his song and it's for him. As he couldn't be here today.

With you beside me

My heart sings a song

Without you,

My music is gone

If I have you with me

I have everything

If you're gone

There's not a thing

To have you with me

Is to live a wonderful dream

When you're around

It feels like...

I've found every joy

When you're gone

Happiness doesn't satisfy me

It's my life that's asking

For you

When you're with me

I can find my way

I can find my way

When you're gone

There is no path

When you're here

There is everything

Without you

There is nobody

If you're with me

Every moment is bliss

When you're with me

I feel the air Has the color of love

When you're gone

Life is without spirit

When I found you

I found life

...my friend, my brother, Joseph Mascarenhas.

Sinbad, the sailor, sailed away one day

Listen up, my friends

Looking for a new world

In his own way

He sailed into uncharted seas

He was at the mercy of the waves

He was warned not to go to sea

Listen up, my friends

It wasn't such a good dream

Listen up, my friends

He was dreaming away

And he listened to his heart

The only thing he had was his dream

The dream of Sinbad, the sailor

The only thing he had was his dream

The dream of Sinbad, the sailor

A typhoon struck his boat once

Listen up, my friends

But he kept his zeal afloat

Listen up, my friends

He was such a devotee

A dream-walker, that's what he was

The only thing he had was his dream

The dream of Sinbad, the sailor

The only thing he had was his dream

The dream of Sinbad, the sailor

Thirsting for a dream

He kept right on his path

The oceans were deep And the waves were tall

Listen up, my friends

Where the largest ships sail uneasy

Listen up, my friends

But he reached the shore, one day

He finally reached his destiny

The only thing he had was his dream

The dream of Sinbad, the sailor

The only thing he had was his dream

The dream of Sinbad, the sailor

With you beside me

My heart sings a song

Without you

My music is gone

If I have you with me

I have everything

If you're gone

There's not a thing

To have you with me

Is to live

A wonderful dream

When you're around, It feels like I've found every joy

When you're gone, Happiness doesn't satisfy me

It's my life that's asking...

For you

When someone has a

dream in his eyes

Happiness is a joy

In chasing that dream

Make a wish

And then you will see

When someone has a

song on his lips

Even a loss seems

like a dream

The song in your heart...

Sing it out...

And then you will see
