Gangster

Give me your word, Usman

If I'm caught, you will shoot me at sunrise tomorrow

Step back... move!

One minute... hang on!

Why're you guys pushing and jostling?

Just a few more breaths

You can't let me down today, Life

I will finally have the bliss...

I have craved for, all my life

Just stand by me till the break of dawn today

If you had to desert me...

why didn't you leave me on the day...

I found myself at the crossroads of life?

Get a hold on yourself

You'll fall, Simran. You've had too much to drink

Listen to me. Give me your hand, Simran...

Simran... Simran!

I've landed you in trouble too. Haven't I, Akash?

You were about to end all the trouble today

What do you hold against me?

For the first time I've found a true friend...

and you want to snatch her away from me?

You were the who was drowning, but it...

...was I who was dying. You know that?

Akash, I've never cared for my life

But you've increased its importance by saving it today

For the first time I've begun to feel...

that my life and death make a difference to someone

Oh shut up!

It's two months since we met, right?

Sometimes I think I understand you very well

And there are times when I think I don't know you at all

Why do I get the feeling that you're...

...suppressing something in your heart?

It keeps trying to come out...

and you always drink to keep it bottled up

What are you hiding from me, Simran? What is it?

I don't want to hide from you what's going on in my heart right now

What?

I don't intend to spend an entire lifetime in this hospital

Will you take me home?

All right

Akash, stop right here

What's wrong with you, Simran?

You get off at just about any corner or square every day

It's either this road, or some other one

Let me drop you home atleast today. You're not keeping well

Akash, I'm okay. I'll go on my own

I'm still a stranger to you, right? - Why do you say such things?

That's not true, Akash

I'm always afraid that I'll drop you some place, someday...

and never see you ever again

Stop talking nonsense. Nothing of the sort's going to happen, Akash

Okay, I'll skip the nonsense. But I have two conditions

One, you won't drink again

Two?

You'll come to hear me sing this evening. At the club

I can't guarantee the first. But I'll surely come to the club

May I go now?

Hello...?

Drunk again?

When are you coming home?

You weren't at home last night

Who'd I come home for?

Who is it that's waiting for me? You call just once a week...

you have any idea how I spend the rest of the six days?

Whatever happens, I have to wait for the phone to ring to talk to you...

and I'm not even supposed to phone you!

Every time I talk to you, I wonder...

if I'll ever get to hear your voice again

If something happens to you...

Everybody's got to die, Simran

But I'm not dying without meeting you

I've got some important business to wrap up

I'm taking a ship to Dubai tomorrow morning

Take care

Daya...

You are my night, my dawn...

you are my day

You are my God, my universe...

you are my world

To me, you are Time...

and I'm every moment for you

How on earth can you ever live apart from me?

You are my night, my dawn...

you are my day

You are my God, my universe...

you are my world

To me, you are Time...

and I'm every moment for you

How on earth can you ever live apart from me?

I don't know why, but without even realising it...

It was in a moment of weakness...

that I met Akash at this very restaurant about a month ago

I can't believe I've grown so close to him in such a little time

Your eyes, misty...

your face, the mirror of your heart

You are a beautiful sad story

Your eyes, misty...

your face, the mirror of your heart

You are a beautiful sad story

What causes agony to your heart...

tell me

Why are you so angry with yourself?

Not just my eyes, you are etched on my heart

You are the reason why I live

Not just my eyes, you are etched on my heart

You are the reason why I live

Your laughter...

your charms...

are so different from the others

You are my night, you are my morn...

you are my day

You are my God, my universe...

you are my world

To me, you are Time...

and I'm every moment for you

How on earth can you ever live apart from me?

Thank you, thank you

I didn't think you'd be coming today,

I didn't think I'd be coming either,

Everybody loved your song. - Yes, sure,

How about the one I sang it for?

Akash, you get so utterly corny at times,

Thank you. - What for?

For accepting both my conditions,

Akash, I got to leave. - Where to, Simran?

I get paid for 3 hours and I've sung just one number yet,

You can stay, Akash. I got to leave,

Where are you going? I had plans for this evening,

Some other time, Akash. - Wait, Simran...,

and why're you taking the backdoor? - Akash!

Coming, sir,

Stay here, I'll meet the manager and return,

Akash, this is Mr. Raghavan. - Hello, Mr. Akash,

I've heard so much about you,

Your songs are being discussed even in India,

Meet my wife. - Hello,

Please sit down, I'll join you in a minute... yes?

Can I have a bit of whisky? Please?

Why're you doing all this, Simran?

Why do you love me so much, Akash?

I have a lot of reasons to drink like this,

But you have no reason to fall in love with a girl like me,

I can't even stand on my own two feet...,

how will I ever be able to stand by you through a lifetime?

I'll take care of you,

I know, you don't want to tell anyone your story,

I know, Simran... - What do you know?

You know nothing, Akash,

You know, had Raghavan caught sight of me today...,

my story would've come to an end,

Raghavan? That guy who works at the Indian embassy?

The bastard's an intelligence agent. He's here on a mission,

Mission...? ,

Don't you always ask me, Akash, why I drink so much?

This is why,

I somehow managed to escape Raghavan's bullets,

But this poor child died right there,

I couldn't even talk to him one last time,

Who are you?

Who, except a criminal, could I be...,

to run away from the police bullets?

What... what crime have you committed?

I've committed the crime of falling in love with a gangster,

I've committed the crime of living with him,

Gangster? ,

Daya,

Well? The mere mention of his name makes you break into a sweat?

I've spent 5 whole years with him,

He's someone the entire police in India hates...,

and I've committed the crime of falling in love with him,

I don't care if I'm caught, Akash,

But I know, if I'm caught...,

perhaps he will be caught too,

It's not today, I've always tried to protect Daya,

Even on the day he got straight to my house...,

running away from the police,

There were 300 families in that locality,

But I don't know why destiny pushed him through the doors of my house,

Did you see someone coming here? - No,

There's nobody, sir. - No? Let's go,

You want to die? They must still be out there,

You can spend the night here if you wish,

This chap who was mopping the floor with me that day...,

I later got to know, was a very dreaded gangster,

Whatever he meant to the world...,

what I saw in his eyes that day...,

made me feel that he too was as lonely as I was,

No thank you, no good-bye...,

he didn't say a word to me when he left early next morning,

I could feel his silence for several days,

It was more than a month since he had left...,

but I still couldn't get over him,

And one day, he landed up at my door,

I wasn't in,

He made enquiries with my neighbours and...,

and he straightaway got to my workplace,

He then started coming frequently to my dance-bar,

He always took one particular table with his back to me,
