Post by bunniefuu »

[Title Montage]

[Ronobir] Kusum.

Come on, sweetheart.

[Kusum] You want to k*ll this baby?

Are you

You are a doctor, right?

[Ronobir] It is not a baby yet.

For God's sake,

it is not even the size of a seed.

What do you think?

Life is going to be

the same after a baby?

Huh?

Everything changes

after you have a baby.

Everything will be fine. You

We will get married.

And what about studying medicine?

[Ronobir] How will you do that?

Will you come to college with

a baby in one hand

and book in another?

We will manage it together.

Kusum, my love.

You are not thinking this through.

You wanted to prove

a few people wrong.

The people who think it's a mistake

to give a medical seat to a woman.

They assume that girls get married

and throw their degrees away.

[Ronobir] And what

about your mother?

What about her?

Mom, forget your dreams.

Because now suddenly,

I have new dreams.

Our circumstances

are different, Ronobir.

Nothing is different.

[Ronobir] Kusum, I have dreams.

I have to go to London.

Practice medicine there.

Kusum.

[Ronobir] There is a

place for you in my dreams.

But not for a baby.

We can't have kids.

- Later.

- Later.

You have four years

to complete your studies.

[Ronobir] And I too

have to go to London.

I have to struggle.

I want to get established.

When you become a doctor,

you will come to me.

We will work together in London.

We will have a

secured and bright future.

[Ronobir] A beautiful home.

We will be so happy.

And a beautiful baby

in that beautiful house.

I always wanted a daughter.

Just like you.

[Music playing]

[Ronobir] To say goodbye

to all my stress and worries,

I had to cross this last hurdle.

Thankfully.

I knew a fool who could

do it in a blink of an eye.

Things we do for love.

[Ratan] We have

to be careful in the village.

Half of Arunachal Pradesh

is covered.

Ratan.

[Kusum] Listen.

I want to talk to you.

[Door opens]

[Kusum] Ratan,

we want to tell you something.

You are with him again?

- What's going on?

- Buddy, that's not important here.

Listen.

I just Just know that

It just happened, okay?

It just happened.

What happened?

You had helped Sharmila earlier.

You know.

I need your help.

[Ratan] You fking b*stard.

[Kusum] Leave him. Calm down.

- [Ratan] Talk to him

- Leave him.

- Calm down.

- Leave him. Stop it.

[Ratan] Kusum, you don't know him.

He uses girls from good families.

He has no fking respect.

Stop it, Ratan. Stop it!

You are not my bodyguard.

You are my friend.

Stop it.

We need your help, Ratan.

[Ronobir] Don't leave us

alone in this.

Just fking shut up.

This is not right.

[Kusum] Everything is fine.

One day, we are going

to get married

- and we've planned everything.

- [Ratan] Married?

Very good.

Is he going to marry you?

Yes. Ronobir and I

will go to London together.

We will make a life, Ratan.

[Ratan] What about aunty?

Does she know about

your plan to go to London?

Huh?

[Ronobir] It can't

be done without you.

I can't do this alone. Please.

- Please.

- [Ratan] So what do you want?

That I abort Kusum's child?

What were you thinking, Kusum?

Ratan.

Ratan, please.

Look at me. For once. Please.

Let me know the time and place.

Kusum.

He will surely do it for you.

Let's go.

[Madhu] I don't understand

why do you need

to go for group studies

and stay there at night.

You won't understand, mom.

Mom.

When father left you

and went away

and you were pregnant with me,

what was going on in your mind?

[Madhu] When I saw

you for the first time.

You were tiny.

And I fell in

love with you, my baby.

[Song playing]

[Ronobir] As I said.

I have a very strong

convincing power.

Poor Kusum.

You have to abort the fetus

right away.

Do you understand?

[Song playing]

[Kusum] Ronobir must be on his way.

[Subhodini] Kusum,

we can't wait anymore.

Five to ten minutes more.

Please.

Fine.

It is the last day of college.

[Subhodini] Then

hostel will be closed.

You will need to take

a lot of rest after this.

Please don't take this risk.

You have to go home.

Without Ronobir

I am here.

Shubho is here. We will take care.

- Come.

- Come.

[Ronobir] Kusum,

what are you doing?

Why do you still have hope?

The fairytale which

I narrated to you.

That was a joke, baby.

In real life, Prince Charming run

away from such hopes of girls.

But you.

I thought you were intelligent.

So you know what?

Come out of the world

of hope and dream.

Or they will pull you

into darkness.

And in that darkness

you will realise this

that first love always ends up

breaking your heart.

Ronobir.

Ronobir.

Is it over?

Everything is fine.

[Ratan] You just need to rest now.

Why did he not come?

Did he come?

He has just left, right?

[Subhodini] Kusum.

Go to sleep. You need to take rest.

[Kusum] Ronobir.

He will come.

[Ratan] I will bring him.

Please take rest.

Surgery is just done.

The stitches would be affected.

Right now, I am worried about you.

Honestly, I don't care where

the irresponsible piece of sh*t is.

He did not think it was important.

He was there for Sharmila.

But for his own baby.

For me.

Look, Kusum.

[Subhodini] Kusum.

[Kusum] Take me to Ronobir

right now.

Rono, Bourbon.

[Ronobir] I am already late, dad.

You are leaving so early?

You still have four

hours for the flight.

[Ronobir] There isn't any flight

for London for the next four days.

I don't want to take

a risk in Calcutta's traffic.

But what is the hurry?

Papa, come on.

There is a month left

for the semester to begin.

Tickets have been booked.

I will buy new tickets, Rono.

[Ronobir's father] Darling, come

with your parents

to spend a mini holiday

before leaving for London.

Papa, I

I want to start my life.

I want to look to my future.

I don't even know whether

that house belongs to us or not.

Why should I waste my time

for that?

What are you escaping from, Rono?

I am running towards

something new, papa.

My new life is waiting for me.

Okay, fine.

Will you have a

drink with your papa?

[Sighs]

Of course, papa.

[Ronobir] One last drink

before I leave.

Last drink.

[Ronobir's Father]

Have you ever thought

what you will do

by studying in London?

Doctors are needed

here in our country.

Won't you treat your own people?

Papa, the life there is different.

[Ronobir's Father]

You will learn from here

and be a sl*ve

of the Britishers?

[Ronobir] You know mother

is right about you.

You are stuck in another era.

It's been fifteen years

since we got independence.

Priorities.

Change your priorities.

Rono, my priorities

has always been your mother.

[Ronobir's Father]

We both had accepted

our differences much earlier.

Maybe you don't know.

- But I really love her a lot.

- Oh, good for you.

This habit of making someone

else's life your own mission

Look at me.

I can't do it.

Rono, you are unable to see it now.

[Ronobir's Father] Maybe I wasn't

able to teach you.

But life will teach you

what is important in life.

One heartbreak.

One bad news.

Loss of control once in life

will teach you.

Rono, life will turn upside down.

Life is a struggle.

But life will teach you

where I failed.

[Ronobir] Bless me, papa.

Don't scare me.

[Ronobir's Father] Rono,

I am not scaring you.

I am trying to teach you.

I will wait for the time when we

both have a drink together.

Cheers to that, dad.

[Music playing]

[Song playing]

[Trunk door closes]

- [Car door opens]

- [Ronobir] So Kusum, my darling.

Your knight in shining

armour was absconding.

He did not have the time

to think about you.

I don't know what you felt

at that point of time.

But I am a little curious.

Is it really painful?

Like physical?

Does it make a sound when

the heart breaks?

I still hadn't learnt it yet.

But you,

two deaths happened

for you that day.

One life that was

growing inside you

and the other whom

you had given your heart to.

All was lost for you, Kusum.

I had broken your heart completely.

As soon as I sat in the taxi,

how did I feel?

Remorse?

No. Guilt?

Absolutely not.

- Relief?

- Hurry up.

[Ronobir] Yes.

I can't miss my flight to London.

[Ronobir] Because I had

already started my journey.

There was nobody to stop me.

I was free.

London was waiting for me.

Kusum baby, your foolishness

was your problem.

Hey, you did not even

learn anything from your mother.

I wish, you had learnt.

Then you would not

have been shattered.
