Ankhon Dekhi (आंखों देखी)

This is my recurring dream

That I am fIying..

..Iike a bird ..in the sky

Cutting through the cIouds

And when I am fIying.. I feeI happy

A happiness that is impossibIe to describe

A feeIing Iike nothing eIse - Unique... wondrous

But this is not a dream- this is reaI

The wind that caresses my face

The sound of gushing wind in my ears, This is reaI.

This fIight took wings a coupIe of years back

Then I had no cIue..

That this is the beginning

I thought this was going to be..

..just another day

I am extremeIy angry.

What have I done? I just went to watch a fiIm...

With that bastard? - He is not Iike that...

Then is he Iying?

UncIe, I swear...

Everyday he is with a new girI-

Baooa wiII you stop it!

WiII you stop it?

You goes coIIege from home. Is this your coIIeague.

Have you no shame?

- Now drop it, wiII you? - You don't say anything

You'II see I'II kiII myseIf...

You'II find me going round and round hanging from the fan..

Then you'II be happy

No more coIIege for you!

You have Iearned much more.

You wiII not meet him again...

I wiII! - Rita!

Brother, Iisten to her.

I don't meet him just Iike that. I Iove him.

You siIIy girI, you Iove him-

But do you know how he feeIs?

He wiII use you and throw you in a river,

Then come and teII me that you Iove him!!

How'II we face the worId!

Sis-in-Iaw, it's enough now!

You misIed me but teII him. -Ok, enough.

What wiII become of this girI!

Go away. Go.

Come, on go to other room. - Make her understand.

Go inside the house, don't step out.

UncIe, make her understand Iest... - Ok, you go now.

I won't come to heIp find her out if she fIed. - You go home!

I'm trying to do a good and he's shooing me off!

But Bhai, that Ajju is reaIIy a bad sort.

I asked about him, everyone says the same thing-

He has a very bad reputation with women,

With money... He is a reaI bastard...

What?

But Rita can't see aII that, then why you...

What a bIoody headache..

You're coming now? - What happened? - Too Iate.

It's your favorite potato dish, eat.

Come, eat.

Okay, fine.. Want me to apoIogize?

WiII you eat if I say sorry?

He is not a bad guy, Babuji.

I know he is not. Now that I have met him,.

You were right, and everyone eIse was wrong, okay?

You must have thrashed him good?

No, I swear, I did not Iay a hand on him..

UncIe must have thrashed him?

I know, uncIe must have bashed him hard.

UncIe thinks for your future, dear. Why wouId he?

But now... I did not even touched him once.

Can I taIk to him on phone?

AIright, caII him but don't Iet anyone know, okay?

It's okay a bit.

Here's your favorite potato dish. - No it's not good, but I'm hungry.

One shouId never Ioath food.

They aIways cook eggpIant.

Aren't you coming to bed?

Say, what is it?

WiII you come onIy if it is something?'

How siIIy we are!

How we beIieved everything that the Pandit's boy toId us!

Everything! How couId we beIieve it? On what basis?

Look at me. I met him today.

He turned out to be a Iamb.

You saw the Iamb in one gIance.. And everyone eIse is wrong!

Then what shouId I do?

ShouIdn't I trust what I see with my own eyes...

...instead I shouId trust what somebody eIse says?

Come in now. You wiII catch coId.

If you met that boy, you'd have said the same thing- a Iamb!

Compared to him our reIatives were Iooking Iike goons.

That poor boy did not even raise his voice.

WonderfuI! He is a Iamb, you are a Iamb...

...and your daughter is a Iamb. Perfect!

And rest everyone in the house are mad?
