0:34I am fine, how are you?
0:36Thank God.
0:37I was quite busy last week, so I couldnāt meet you.
0:41How is Uncle?
0:42He is better by Godās graceā¦He will be discharged in a day or two.

0:57God willing.
0:59Uncle will also get well soon with Godās will.
1:01Amen!
1:02I shall leave.
1:03Bye!
1:24Was this Doctor Fizzah?
1:26Hmm.
1:29Why did she leave then?
1:33She was busy, she did not come to meet me.
1:38What is this card for?
1:44This is Doctor Fizzahās wedding card.
1:48Her wedding is on the 20thā¦
1:50If youā¦
1:52can stayā¦.you can come with me.
1:58I have to return on the 18th.
2:11Let me check on Uncle Basharat.
2:27Razia!
2:31Where is Father?
2:33Father has gone to the factory.
2:36Tch, tch, tch, tch, Oho!
2:41Because of me ā¦
2:42My old Fatherā¦
2:45has to bear so much trouble at this age.
2:49Father,
2:49Grandfather has become young again.
2:52Here you go Sir,
2:53healthy breakfast for you.
2:57Hey!
2:59Kaneez Fatima, who will cook all these things for me when you will leave?
3:07Uncle,
3:08I have told this recipe to Mother and Surayyaā¦
3:11And it is very easy to cook.
3:13Will they both be able to cook this?
3:15God bless, God bless.
3:18My sonā¦.
3:20has returned home.
3:21Hey Father,
3:23I am not a kid anymore; I have turned into an ill old man.
3:28I am very embarrassed before youā¦
3:32You have to bear so much trouble because of me.
3:36Dear, the truth is thatā¦
3:38As long as the parents are aliveā¦
3:41The kids donāt grow old.
3:43They stay kids.
3:45Kaneez Fatima has taught me something very nice thatā¦
3:50Old people are not only supposed to stay home and fix their grandchildrenās marriagesā¦
3:57And neither are they supposed to criticize in the domestic matters.
4:01They should use ā¦
4:03their energies in something positive.
4:08When I went to the shop and the workshop after so many days todayā¦
4:13I felt very good after talking and explaining things to the workers.
4:18And I am amazedā¦
4:21That our Iqbal has a very good knowledge of this work.
4:27Now you donāt worry...
4:29To share your burdenā¦
4:32Your Father ā¦.
4:34and your Sister will always be by your side.
4:40Oh Father,
4:42may God always keep you safe and may you always be with us...
4:48And may God bless Iqbal ā¦
4:50with all the joys of the world.
5:08Dawood!
5:10Yes Mother.
5:12Does Kaneez Fatima really want to leave?
5:18Yes.
5:20She really wants to go back.
5:22Why donāt you stop her?
5:26Becauseā¦
5:27It was me who once told her to go back.
5:33But why?
5:38Becauseā¦
5:41I think, she will not be able to live here.
5:44No matter how hard she tries to fit into this environmentā¦
5:48She cannot reach the point, where I want to see her.
5:53Andā¦
5:54Iā¦
5:56Donāt want to put myself or her into any kind of troubleā¦
5:59Thatās why, I ā¦
6:01found it right thatā¦
6:04We both part ways.
6:07You have made a very wrong judgement.
6:10She was changing herself.
6:14Just because she started calling you Mother, you thought that she has changed?
6:18You are very innocent.
6:20You are a big fool.
6:22You could not understand her.
6:25Honestly speakingā¦
6:26I used to have a strong feeling of affection when she used to take my name.
6:33Its not only about calling me Motherā¦
6:36I have felt change in her.
6:40She was tryingā¦
6:42She was fighting with her own selfā¦
6:44To change her dressingā¦
6:48For the betterment of her prayers.
6:52And regardless of however she wasā¦
6:55She was way much better than all of usā¦very pious.
7:00She was not a liar or hypocriteā¦
7:03Nor was she deceitful or manipulative.
7:06She was a much better muslim than all of us.
7:14You know whatās the best part?
7:18Your loveā¦
7:20You love was changing her.
7:26Convince herā¦
7:28Stop her.
7:32Donāt let her go, dear.
8:30What if I ask you not to leave?
8:38I stayed back because of Uncle Basharat earlier.
8:43Now, stay back for me.
8:49I want to leave because of you only.
8:53It was you, who asked me to leave.
8:58Andā¦
9:02A girl like Doctor Fizzah suits you well.
9:11There is nothing like that between me and Doctor Fizzah.
9:18I have realized thatā¦
9:21There was nothing like that between you and George.
9:40Itās good that you have realized this.
9:46I also have realized something.
9:50There is nothing left between us.
9:53Donāt say that.
9:57If you would not have loved meā¦
10:00You would not have been wearing a scarf in front of the mirror like this.
10:07This is actually my problemā¦
10:12Why should I change myself for someoneās love?
10:18Is someoneās love so powerfulā¦That I start following his path?
10:26And what if he changes his path in the future?
10:30Then whatās the useā¦.
10:32of being with someone like that..
10:40It was you who used to say Davidā¦
10:44There are other things in my life which I loveā¦
10:50Which attract me.
10:56I might stay back for you todayā¦
11:01Then I can even leave you for them in the future.
11:08Isnāt it so?
11:13This is why I donāt want to put myself in any test.
11:20You were rightā¦
11:24It is better for us to part ways.
11:32Neither will I stay backā¦
11:37Nor will you stop me now.
11:48To end this marriageā¦
11:52This experiment was necessary too.
12:02Once Uncle Basharat gets well andā¦.
12:06the circumstances get betterā¦
12:16You can ā¦
12:19divorce me then.
13:06Yes dear.
13:07Yes Dadā¦
13:09My flight is scheduled at 2 a.m. in the morning, I will leave at 11oāclock at night.
13:14Have you told Dawood?
13:18Yes,
13:20I have talked to everyoneā¦
13:24I have told everyoneā¦.
13:26that I am leaving for good.
13:34Dad!
13:35Ok dear.
13:37Dad, cheer up!
13:40Your daughter is coming to you and you are feeling sad.
13:43Ok listen!
13:45Donāt come to pick me up from the airport, I will come on my own.
13:49Andā¦
13:50I have to pack now, I will talk to you when I reach the airport.
13:55Sure dear,
13:56safe travels.
13:58Bye!
14:22Mr. Dawood Basharat, son of Basharat Aliā¦
14:26Do you accept your marriage to Kaneez Fatima, daughter of Naveed Ali,
14:33against a dowry amount of 50,000?
14:38Yes, I doā¦
14:38Think again, you may refuse if you want toā¦
14:42I have no issues.
14:44I do, I do, I do.
15:19Yes Surayya.
15:21Where are you?
15:23I am at the hospital.
15:24You are great, brother.
15:25Kim sister in law is returning to America.
15:27If you canāt stop her then come to drop her to the airport at least.
15:31if, instead of testing your love, you accept Kim sister in lawās loveā¦
15:35She might stay back.
15:38She will not stay back.
15:40At least give it a try.
15:42You have given up and sitting at the clinic.
15:44You gave up, Dawood brother.
16:01What should I do?
16:25I have called brother.
16:27He is coming.
16:30Zulfi and Iqbal will drop me to the airport.
16:44I am going to miss all of you a lot.
16:52Every moment, I spent in this house was the best moment of my life.
17:08I have learnt a lot from all of you.
17:18All of you are very nice.
17:22Very generousā¦
17:26very welcoming.
17:38I am very lucky that I became a part of this familyā¦
17:47And Motherā¦
17:51I am going to miss your scolding and your food.
18:04I have called you a Mother onceā¦
18:08No matter what happens,
18:11You will always be my mother.
18:21Grandfather ā¦
18:23Uncle Basharatā¦
18:28I have teased both of you a lot.
18:37I am sorry for that.
18:42Uncle Basharat,
18:44you have to take care of yourselfā¦
18:46No spicy food,
18:50Take very good care of your diet.
18:59And Grandfather,
19:02You also have to take care of yourself.
19:08You are the soul of this family.
19:19Surayya,
19:21You take care of all of them, ok!
19:27Let Dawood come.
19:35I am not waiting for him.
20:05Did you talk to Naveed?
20:12I did.
20:18You have made a very tough decision.
20:23I have saved myself from making many difficult decisions.
20:27Anyways,
20:29whether your trip was beneficial or not for you or for Dawood or for anyoneā¦
20:37But you came as an angel for us.
20:44If you would not have had comeā¦
20:46I and Mr. Dilshad would not have been able to get married.
20:54I..
20:56I have a favor to ask from youā¦
20:59Please donāt refuse.
21:01Go ahead.
21:11These are a few dollarsā¦
21:14That Dad had given to Uncle Basharat for me.
21:18I know neither anyone will take it from me in this house nor Dad will take it back from me.
21:25Uncle Basharat needs it right now.
21:28Youā¦
21:30Please, invest this in your business.
21:36Errā¦
21:37Youā¦
21:38You donāt worryā¦we will manage.
21:43I am lending it to you Zulfiā¦
21:45You can return it when the situation gets better.
21:52You need this money right now.
21:55And anyways Zulfi,
21:57the two of us are friends, right?
21:59So, donāt say no.
22:01Yes!
22:58Kaneez Fatima leftā¦
23:00And then I realized,
23:01that when someone leaves,
23:03it makes us closer to that personā¦
23:05From this house,
23:06from this city,
23:07out of this countryā¦
23:10There was hardly any connectionā¦
23:13But the connection ā¦
23:15that I had with Kaneez Fatimaā¦
23:17It never endedā¦
23:19Neither it became weak.
23:22A lot of things changed in this one yearā¦
23:25Only those things changed that Kaneez Fatima had changed.
23:30Daniyal got admission in a university in Germanyā¦
23:35Surayya took admission in M.A.
23:39Father and Aunty Iqbal have become business partners.
23:42Grandfather also visits the workshop at times.
23:45And yesā¦
23:46Uncle Zulfiās poetry book has also been published.
23:49He was very happy.
23:51He says ā¦
23:52that a poet ā¦
23:53writes poetry for his loverā¦
23:55My poetry has been glorified because of my wife.
23:59After marriageā¦.
24:01His poetry has become both; rhythmic and descriptive
24:05Husna and Hamid!
24:07Husna is preparing for CSS.
24:10Uncle has gotten her engaged to someone who isnāt from our family and is out of the caste.
24:15Aunty is saying that he got this courage to take this action from our house.
24:20And I feel ā¦
24:21that it is only because of Kaneez Fatima.
24:25And yes, I forgot to mention about myself.
24:33I accepted Dr. Shujaās request after Kaneez Fatima leftā¦
24:39And I went to the village.
24:41I dedicated one year only for these poor peopleā¦
24:45And now I have come home for a holiday.
24:48So, this packing and passportā¦
24:50I am going to America to meet Kaneez Fatima.
24:56I realized once she leftā¦
24:58That separating from her wasnāt only difficultā¦
25:01But it was deadly for me.
25:03I didnāt know,
25:04that Kaneez Fatimaās love has become such a big test for me.
25:08Every minute,
25:09every moment,
25:11I missed her.
25:13It happenedā¦
25:15I donāt know whyā¦
25:18Automaticallyā¦
25:22I just fell in love with you.
25:28For the first time todayā¦
25:34You are feeling shy while talking to me.
25:38I donāt believe it.
25:43And more importantlyā¦
25:46Even if it is just like thatā¦But at least,
25:50You have fallen in love with me.
26:37Uncle!
26:40Naveed!
26:42You did not call nor you informed.
26:44Your uncle was missing youā¦
26:46I was missing you so I thoughtā¦I should come.
26:48God bless you, stay happy.
26:50How are you doing?
26:50God has been kind; God has been kind.
26:52Basharat!
26:54Razia!
26:55Come here, look who is here.
26:57Yes Fatherā¦
26:58Oh!
26:59Basharat!
26:59Naveed!
27:02Itās good that you came.
27:05Very good.
27:06It had been a long time.
27:07Yes.
27:07You didnāt bring Kaneez Fatima along with you?
27:10Kaneez Fatima!
27:11Yes,
27:12it has been a whole year since she leftā¦
27:14Doesnāt she miss us?
27:17Sister-in-law, I have brought your Daughter in law along.
27:19Huh!
27:19Kaneez Fatima dear!
28:01Greetings!
28:04Greetings! May you live long dear, May you live long.
28:11Evil eye away.
28:55I donāt believe itā¦
28:58That the person I was about to look forā¦
29:01Will come to me as a gift, without making any efforts.
29:09There were suit cases in your room downstairsā¦
29:14Are you going somewhere, Dawood?
29:20Why arenāt you saying anything, Dawood?
29:30Let me enjoy hearing my name.
29:40Yesā¦
29:46I was coming to America to meet you.
29:51I had a flight tonight.
30:01You took a whole year to meet me.
30:04You also took a whole year to come back.
30:10My journey wasnāt that easy.
30:15It wasnāt from one country to anotherā¦
30:19It was from one mindset to anotherā¦
30:22And it was a journey from one culture to another.
30:26I had to take some time.
30:29You could have done all of this here also.
30:38If I would have done it while staying here thenā¦
30:40I wouldnāt have had understood the reason behind doing it.
30:45Whatever I was doing here, Dawoodā¦
30:49I was doing it to please you and ā¦
30:52because I was in love with you.
30:57But to convince a humanā¦.
30:59shouldnāt be a personās goal in lifeā¦.
31:05The actual goal ā¦.
31:07For any human is to please the one who has created him.
31:13This was the biggest..
31:14and the real goal.
31:19If I would have done it while staying here, then I wouldnāt have understood it.
31:24Not only did I go to the university this yearā¦
31:28I have even studied the religion.
31:35My inside,
31:37My heartā¦
31:40I convinced themā¦
31:43And Godās guidanceā¦.
31:45made this journey really easy.
31:55Thank you for coming back.
32:03Thank you Dawoodā¦
32:06For making my journey easy.
32:20Instead of forcefully changing my mindsetā¦
32:24You waited for my mindset to change with patience and love.
32:33You didnāt impose things on meā¦
32:37But you let me explore it with my thought processā¦
32:41So, thank you.
32:57Just a simple thank you?
32:59What else should I say then?
33:10I love you.
33:17Really?
33:19Thank you!
33:23Kaneez Fatima.
33:30Love you too, Dawood.
