Ekk Deewana Tha (एक दीवाना था)

Of all the girls in the world, why did I fall in love with Jessie?

Presenting, Jessie.

Beautiful..

Classy..

Intelligent.

Class topper..

98.9 percent.

And sexy..

100 percent.

Even in a saree, she can give any fashionably dressed girl a complex.

I'd take her home right now..

Give her the hundred and eleven rupees as per the tradition..

And make her mine.

So what's the problem?

The problem is that she is getting married today.

To someone else..

Not to me.

Sir, where are you going?

Nikhil, the A.D, is my friend.

There's no Nikhil here.

Hey Sachin! Sorry dude.

What is this, Nikhil? No one knows you here!

Forget it, three Khans are shooting here.

I've been waiting for half an hour. I told you about him.

This is me, Sachin.

I'm an engineer. I even work as one, but I can't keep a job.

I can't keep a job, because my heart isn't into it.

My heart is into cinema.

I want to make movies.

I used to watch movies.

Now I want to make them

I didn't even realize when cinema became my life.

Nor did I realize when it became my problem 1.

"A lot of friends"

a lot of dreams..

And hope..

Such was life.

Anay sir, you're late. Anyway good you're here.

Not today. I've got to jog today.

Come on, sir! My arm is hurting.

Such a well-known cameraman and you refuse cricket.

Films and cricket, what more is there to India?!

You always play with my emotions, Sachin Tendulkar.

Sir, most assistant directors are related to actors or producers.

I don't stand a chance.

Whom will you assist?

Sir, Anurag Kashyap?

With him, your life will become dark.

He's a good chap though.

It's your first movie

try something fresh.

Ramesh Sippy.

Rohan Sippy?

His father, Ramesh Sippy.

The Ramesh Sippy!

I'm the cameraman for his movie.

You'll learn a lot.

You'll get to work on a big, colorful movie.

You know, Sholay, Shakti.. getting it?

Right here. Bungalow apartment in Juhu?

Holy mother of God! How come?

My dad's brains.

Redevelopment and all.

Really!

We've been here just a week it's not even our own!

You'll get your own house as well. For now, enjoy Juhu.

Bachchan sir's bungalow to the left, my office to the right.

Drop by whenever you feel like.

Your dad seems quite smart.

I don't get why he doesn't support your film-making.

That's what, sir! What do I do?

We'll figure something out. First, lunch.

Mr. Anay..

We're among those people who..

Live simply and sleep soundly.

Yes, sir.

We don't even watch movies.

The last movie we saw was Sholay.

Sholay? - There's been no real movie made after that..

Yes, true.

What a coincidence!

This is magic, sir.

I've recommended him to Ramesh Sippy, the director of Sholay.

His comeback film.

His future is bright, sir.

What can I say!

Can you put that on stamp paper?

Sir, he's definitely capable.

I don't think so.

Sir, I know him well. He's got potential.

I'm his father.

I also have some idea of his potential.

Of course you do.

But, being a friend

I see a story-teller in him.

Everything seemed so difficult.

Life was a mess.

That's when I saw Jessie.

You can think everything else through, but love..

Just happens.

Just like that.

Takes over your world just like that.

Just one glance, and it pours straight into your heart.

Abracadabra..

Whoosh..

Smile.. calm..

Magic.. music..

And in a flash

in a flash

in a flash.

You are in love.

I live upstairs.

What are you doing, Sachin?

What's going on?

Dad.. I'm writing a romantic scene.

Here, like this, dancing in the middle of the road?

I'm getting the feel right.

What feel, you idiot? Everyone's looking!

Mom, I'm home. What's there to eat?

She's a Malayali Christian.

Jessie.

Madrasi right?

Are all south Indians Madrasis?

She's from Kerala.

Isn't it the same thing? Tell me more.

We're Marathi Konknastha Brahmins. You remember that, right?

So?

Nothing can happen.

You'll get beaten up.

Okay.

What okay?

Have you seen how tall her father is?

I was 100 percent sure that violins would start playing in you heart.

Really? I'm proud of you.

You should be.

Even if you get her to like you, nothing can happen.

Believe me.

And her father's a lawyer.

Same speed, same speed.

Come here, Valentine!

Dude, sisters are crazy.

I mean, they're the little good daughters.

Okay? Never listen to them.

In love, listen to your heart, not your sister.

What does your heart say?

"Jessie, Jessie" right?

So, now all we have to think about is how to approach Jessie..

And how to propose to her.

That's all. Focus.

Focus okay, sir.

I wasn't talking to you, dude.

Anything else?

Another shocker.

This one will bowl you out for sure.

What? - She completed B.Sc., three years back.

And you finished engineering last year.

So?

That's good. What's wrong?

See, this is why you'd fail in Math.

Dude, she's a year older than you.

What are you saying?

She doesn't look a day older than 18.

Yeah, you wish, broth er.

A year older.

And a Christian. Problem 2.

She's a year older than you?

- Yes sir. - You're lucky.

In my town in U.P. there's a saying...

"The older the bride, the more luck she brings."

And I think it applies to Maharashtra too.

U.P. & Maharashtra are the same!

All girls know the tricks of love.

But, if she's a year or two elder..

Then she'll show a little more care in the love.

"Baby" sweetheart. All the mushy stuff.

And such girls, they take care of everything, I mean everything.

What Sir!?

So don't worry.

Not me, sir.

Jessie will worry.

That's the art my friend.

You shouldn't let Jessie worry.

Art of loving.

Who the hell is she?

She's mine.

Hi, I'm Jerry.

Hello problem 3.

- Sachin. - Jessie's brother.

He spells trouble.

Hello.

This is my house.

I know. You're Jessie's dad.

You know Jessie?

Yes. I mean, he's my friend.

Oh. You mean Jerry.

Oh your son's name is Jerry.

Okay, yeah, Jerry.

What do you do?

'An.

Mechanical engineer.
