Ek Hasina Do Diwane

"- Sir, the engineer is on his way. - Where is he?"

- Good day sir. - When will work on the circular tower begin?

Tomorrow we'll start on the base and then the iron rods.

- And concrete? - Two days after that.

So in a week it will be complete.

- Yes sir. - Sit down.

"- Is Amar here? - Yes, he's up there."

There? How does one go up?

Take that ladder.

You? Here at this hour?

- I'm in trouble. - How can trouble be in trouble?

You find it funny while I'm in dire straits.

But what's the matter?

Come here.

I told you about the Major?

I've fallen for his son.

- How is that possible? - Why?

First you fell in love with his daughter. Now his son!

What will people say?

Oh no! He calls his daughter his son.

Don't say it in front of others or they will think the worst!

Stop fooling around and help me.

I love her but she doesn't even look at your star.

I'll do that.

What did I do to get close to her? I told Neeta's mother..

I want to stage the Ramleela and Neeta alone can play Sita.

Her mother is an English lady but crazy about old Indian culture.

And Romeo's wish was granted.

"Yes, but I'm in trouble."

"When she looks into my eyes during rehearsal, I can't join our hearts."

I break out in sweat and forget all my dialogues.

- My heart loses control.. - What can I do?

You told me your mother recited Ramayana and other religious books.

Give me moral support and help me in the rehearsal.

Welcome!

- We'll take your rehearsal. - What do I have to do?

You only have to practice walking to garland Lord Rama.

All of you take position.

What a walk! What a gait!

"This is Marlyn Monroe's walk, not Sita's."

- Forgive me but I'm right. - Who are you?

My friend. His mother read out all the religious books to him.

I've called him to help us. This is Neeta.

My friend lives in the village. He is actually an engineer...

But doesn't know our customs.

"Yes, can't play foreign music on local instruments."

Then you explain to her how to walk.

Tulsidas writes in the Ramayana...

When mother Sita goes to put the garland in Lord Rama's neck..

It was like this.

What does it mean?

Sita was hesitant.

She wanted to see him. Love was hidden in her heart.

Nobody knew of it. She went closer...

"When she saw his glory, she was enthralled."

Try to bring that innocence ad purity into your eyes.

That must have been in her eyes.

Why are you standing like this?

Lord Rama was the epitome of manhood.

Bring that peace and glow to your expression.

That must have been on his face.

Practice that walk at home.

Today we'll rehearse something else.

My lord!

Son of an Aryan! Don't think of removing me from your feet.

Why are you nervous?

What should I say?

Move aside.

Repeat it.

Lord!

Will you only look into her eyes or will you say something?

Don't think of removing me from your feet!

Listen my soul mate.

"If you want the welfare of both of us, obey me and go home."

"My partner, obey my command."

You can look after your in laws and it will be for the best.

I will find no happiness in the world without you.

Like a body without life or a river without water.

So is a woman without her husband.

"Staying with you, seeing your face will give me all the worldyjoys."

"My delicate darling, you are not fit for the forest."

The swan that is bred on pure water..

...can't survive on sea water.

Will a koel living off sweet fruits survive in a bitter gourd forest?

Heaven would be hell for me if you were not with me!

I would give up my life if you are not with me!

Wonderful!

You speak very well.

From tomorrow so will I.

Let's cancel rehearsal today. We'll start in grand style tomorrow.

Pack up boys.

See you later.

Acts loving if he sees me.

Otherwise keeps courting Neeta!

You romance like an old woman despite being so modern?

Isn't our friendship sufficient?

- Why don't you understand? - I don't have the time.

It's time for the rehearsal. Bye. See you.

- Will you come to the party? - Will you?

"If you invite me, I have to."

What are you staring at?

"Tell me, don't you love Neeta?"

Then why do you flirt with others?

"My friend; love, romance, flirting, beloved, girl friend, wife..."

They are all different.

You don't leave one when you find the other.

I don't understand this.

How can man be tied in one relation and go elsewhere?

There should be some difference between man and animal.

You and your old fashioned talk! Learn to change with the times.

I don't want to imitate others and forget myself.

Anyway lets rehearse.

Madam! Garland ready in hand?

Come on then.

What have you done?

Prakash was to be garlanded!

One who resembles Ravana can never be Ram.

Do I look like Ravana?

I will play Sita only if Amar is willing to play Ram.

Will you do the role?

This is a good deed. I will surely do it.

- Then what will Prakash do? - Let him play Hanuman.

The one I trusted let me down!

I thought he was my friend but he turned out to be an enemy!

What nonsense? Am I your enemy?

You wouldn't play Ram if you weren't!

I did not want to act.

- Neeta asked me in front of you. - so what?

- But why did you accept? - Because you can't do it!

And I wouldn't want a man who can't inspire devotion..

To Play Rama!

That's cock and bull! The truth is you want to flirt with Neeta!

Don't measure everyone by your standards! I don't pursue girls!

Never say such a thing again!

You may do this nonsense!

So you won't act in the play?

I would have refused but now I will do it!

The trash you churn out under the guise of religion..

I won't let that come true!

"Do all this in clubs, parties and your homes!"

- You may leave. - But.. - I don't want to hear a thing.

I'll see you!

"See whatever you have to, now!"

Fool!

- Where had you gone? - Nowhere.

"A lady, all smiles, was asking about you."

- I was talking to her. - Who was asking for me?

You ought to know better. She is waiting for you.

I'll go. This is my address. Go home and get the food on the table.

I'll go and get it now.

- What are you doing here? - Going shopping. Came to see you.

- Let's go shopping. - I have a job to do.

I can't leave till the office shuts for the day.

- Can we meet in the evening? - Sure if you wish to.

- Promise? - Promise.

He's coming!

- He's come. - He's come.

Good God!

Mother!

Call your father. Leave you on the streets after birth!

"- Mother! - Mother, again!"

Now talk! I'll break the hands of the man who touches my baby!

"Come here, I'll show you stars!"

Stay away from me! Call your husband!

I don't beat up women. Something wrong might happen.

Showing me eyes!

What can you do besides fight?

The man who will hold me back hasn't taken birth.

- But wife.. - Stop interfering!

- Now speak! - I'm no coward like your husband.

The person who can show me stars as not taken birth!

What are you watching my sons? The enemy has challenged your mom!

It's a matter of your mother's honour. Break all his bones!

Get out!

Forgive me! The fat lady is outside! I'll shut my eyes!

I'll meet my death! I've shut my eyes.

- I'm dead! - Not yet!

But now you'll die!

Excellent!

Stop it! Let the poor man go.

I'll gouge out the eyes of any man who looks at my kids!

"- Get out of my way! - No, please don't!"

Forgive me. I won't be offended even if they hit me with a shoe.

- Good day sir. - Where is the Major?

- Upstairs. - Why don't you say? Standing for ages! - Sorry sir.

You've come here at this hour?

But today was the show of your prehistoric drama.

I didn't go because that villager Amar was playing Ram.

- Why? - Your daughter refused to work with me.

She says I resemble Ravana not Ram.

- She judged you well. - You think I'm a villian?

I think you're a Don Juan.

But you're not fit for Ramleela.

You're a modern man and that is a prehistorical drama!

You should have chosen a Shaw or Shakespeare play.

My daughter would have been great as My Fair Lady!

I thought the same but aunt said Neeta will act only in Ramleela.

"If you walk on the path prescribed by women, you'll always be a failure."

It's my personal experience.

"Welcome back. How was the drama, my dear?"
