0:29How are you Faryal?
0:31Iām fine.
0:33Arent you going to ask me the same?
0:34Youāre in front of me so you must be fine.
0:36Just because I look fine doesnāt mean that I feel the same from inside.
0:42Iām really happy to see you here.
0:44Even the entire staff here praises you a lot.
0:47Had Amanat uncle been alive he would have been really happy.
0:49...In fact, even Iām very happy.
0:51Iām getting late Zohaib.ā
1:12Do you believe in prayer?
1:13Yes, of course.
1:15Prayers can change a personās destiny.
1:19What were you asking for in your prayers?
1:21I was praying for my father.
1:25Whats wrong with him?
1:26Is he well?
1:28Yes, yes, heās perfectly fine.
1:31Its not a must to pray for someone only when theyāre ill you know.
1:36We should always remember our parents in our prayers.
1:42Your father must love you a lotā¦
1:47because youāre his obedient son.
1:49Yes, thatās true I am obedient.
1:55But my father is a very strict man.
1:58From my childhood to dateā¦.
2:01Heās been very strict with me
2:04He would always be telling me off for something or the other.
2:07But now that Iām no longer with him I realize that whatever he did was for my betterment.
2:14Had he not been strict with me I might not have turned out to be a good person.
2:22And besides a fatherās rebuke has love and concern hidden in it.
2:26He wants to show us his love
2:28and save us from the evils of this world.
2:32And no human is ever more important to a father than his own children.
2:37Enough son.
2:39You need to now stop fighting with yourself and others son.
2:44Thereās a blessing thatās hidden in it for you.
2:47Accept this veneration.
2:50Follow the way of the world.
2:53What are you thinking about all of a sudden?
3:00Its nothing.
3:01Alright so tell me something.
3:03What do you think is the best blessing for you from God?
3:10An⦠uhā¦
3:12excellent life.
3:14...A good job.
3:16A nice house.
3:17A nice car.
3:22nice lifestyle.
3:24When one has all this...
3:27Life becomes easier
3:32It would become easier, yesā¦
3:34but what about those people who donāt have all these comforts,
3:38is their life not good?
3:43Their lives are also just as nice.
3:48But I donāt consider coming to terms with ones lot as life.
3:53The best life is one where one strives to accomplish ones dreams.
4:00But humans havenāt been created to fulfill their dreams and desires.
4:04Those that leave their desires behind
4:07and resign and submit themselves to the will of God are nearer to Him my friend.
4:16There is peace, contentment and satisfaction in their lives.
4:21And then their smiles
4:23become the most genuine and most beauteous thing about them.
4:27And besides I feel that
4:30the best gift God has blessed us with is our relationships.
4:34Like our parents, brother and sisters, a husband and wife, childrenā¦
4:35our parents,
4:37brother and sisters,
4:39a husband
4:40and wife,
4:43childrenā¦
4:44ā¦A happy, thriving home is the best blessing.
4:53But these relationships
4:56also make you suffer.
5:02They hurt you.
5:06These relationships donāt hurt us.
5:09There are times
5:11knowingly or unknowingly
5:13when we are the ones who are hurting them.
5:17we have perhaps a tendency to think that we are perhaps rightā¦
5:19Because of our own egos, we have perhaps a tendency to think that we are perhaps rightā¦
5:23...but that is probably our worst mistake.
5:27I mean just think,
5:29what if one of us falls ill
5:33or gets into some kind of troubleā¦
5:36then...who do you think will feel the pain
5:39and worry moreā¦
5:40if itās not our parents then who else?
5:44And a person
5:46whose family is unhappy with him,
5:50in my opinion
5:52that person could be the worldās richest personā¦
5:57but in my eyes that person is the most unsuccessful.
6:03Why donāt you offer your prayers?
6:09I will.
6:11Thatās good.
6:15You said that you will pray.
6:17I will pray for you.
6:22I will pray that God changes your heart
6:25and creates ease for you.
6:40Thank you.
6:45Please send Faryal here.
6:47Papa, Faryal still isnt home.
6:50What�
6:51She isnt back home as yet?
6:53But she left the office before usā¦
6:58Phone her please.
6:59Alright.
7:07Greetings papa.
7:09Greetings my dear.
7:10What kept you?
7:12You left the office before us didnāt you?
7:15I went to a friendās house.
7:17Iām sorry for not informing you.
7:19Its alright dear just let us know when youāre going somewhere otherwise we get worried.
7:24Should I get dinner laid out for you?
7:26No sister-in-law, Iām not hungry.
7:29Iām just going to get some rest.
7:36Uh⦠Papa,
7:39Faryal looks somewhat worried.
7:43Yes, well she and this family have only the one worry.
7:48My foolish son.
7:51No matter how hard I try I cant take away the pain caused by Shahzain from Faryalās heart.
7:57I thought that after all that has happened he would have come to his senses by now.
8:01That he would come back home⦠ask for forgiveness.
8:03He will never come to his senses.
8:05Heās made our lives a misery along with his own.
8:10If truth be told papa, Iām really missing Shahzain.
8:15I know youāre angry with him but what about meā¦
8:19Iāve always loved him like a sisterā¦
8:21...and considered him to be like my child.
8:24But he hasnāt thought to call me even once after leaving.
8:29Iām even longing to hear his voice.
8:31I wonder what state heās in?
8:32He must be very happy which is probably why he isnt missing any of us.
8:39Heās an egoist and very arrogant.
8:41He doesnāt care about anyone but himself.
8:44Nosheen dear,
8:45try and make sure thereās no mention of Shahzain in front of Faryal.
8:51canāt bear to see her in any further pain.
8:54Okay papa.
8:55Iāll make sure of it.
8:56Good.
9:11Your dinner.
9:15Zohaib?
9:18...Your dinner?
9:21Thank you sister-in-law.
9:31Arent you going to eat?
9:37You look upset.
9:41Sister-in-lawā¦
9:43Iām upset because of Faryalās behavior
9:48What do you mean, has she said something to you?
9:51Thatās just the problem.
9:52She isnt telling me anything.
9:54Sheās ignoring me.
9:57I get the feeling that she doesnāt even want to face me.
10:03I know why sheās punishing me.
10:08I did make a huge mistake.
10:12But we were also good friends at one time.
10:15Time and situation changes a person.
10:19Besides what you did with Faryal isnāt something that one would forget that easily.
10:31Faryal?
10:34Whats wrong?
10:37Are you unwell?
10:39Nothing is alright sister-in-law.
10:42Shahzainā¦
10:45Shahzain⦠I donāt know where he is.
10:48Whats wrong with you Faryal?
10:50He must be living quite happily at Minahilās house and here youāre doing this to yourself -
10:53Had that been the case sister-in-law,
10:55I would have come to terms with it thinking it to be what made Shahzain happy.
11:00...But that isnt the case.
11:02Minahil has sold the house and gone off to the United States
11:05and Shahzain is now homeless!
11:08What?!
11:11What are you saying???
11:14Waitā¦
11:16this is why when I was phoning Farhat aunty and Minahil their phones were coming as switched off.
11:23Ifā¦
11:24If Shahzain isnt there then where can he have gone?!
11:27Iāve been searching for him for quite a few days nowā¦
11:31in fact I spoke to him the one time only.
11:35...But heās not even answering my phone calls now.
11:38Have courage Faryal⦠be brave.
11:40Heāll be okay wherever he is.
11:43But he isnt okay sister-in-law.
11:46Shahzain is at the Mosque
11:48I saw him there with my own eyes.
11:53At the Mosque �
11:55You must be mistaken Faryal.
11:56You must have seen someone else.
11:58Iām not mistaken sister-in-law!
12:01Brother Sajid came by the office the other day
12:04and he saw Shahzain on the road in a very sorry condition.
12:07He has nothing and I get the feeling that heās really suffering and in pain.
12:11If heās suffering and in pain then why doesnāt he just come back home!
12:14I just donāt understand whatās happening.
12:17I want Shahzain to come back.
12:20And if he puts the condition of a divorce for his return⦠then Iām willing to agree to that as well.
12:25...But he should just come back home.
12:28Okay look stop saying such things now.
12:30Imagine how hurt papa would be if he were to find out about all this.
12:34You know how he doesnāt keep well as it.
12:36No sister-in-law, please
12:37Donāt tell papa anything.
12:40I donāt want to give him any further pain.
12:44Iām trying to find Shahzain.
12:47...God willing,
12:48my Lord will help me every which way.
12:51And Iām positive that weāll find Shahzain.
13:14You seem rather tired today.
13:17Have some coffee made by me
13:19and youāll lose the tiredness in minutes.
13:25Thank you
13:26but no, I donāt want any.
13:30I donāt know why but looking at you⦠I get the feeling
13:34that youāre grieving over something.
13:38If you donāt mind sharing it
13:41then Iām here if you want to talk about it my friend.
13:47Its nothing.
13:50Its fine if you donāt want to speak about it.
13:55...But you know your face,
13:57thereās some kind of regret there.
14:00...Or else
14:02youāve been unlucky in love.
14:11Do you know how to read faces then?
14:13Oh hey no way buddy,
14:15I was only making my own deductions.
14:22By the way youāre the first person Iāve ever met,
14:27who takes everything as if itās nothing.
14:30Youāve always got a smile on your face.
14:32Thereās a sense of deep calm and peace about you.
14:37We should
14:39always thank God for our blessings no matter what the situation.
14:44And this is something that Iāve learnt to understand and accept with all my heart and soul.
14:48Its because of this that I ā¦
14:50remain at peace
14:52and calm.
14:57But that doesnāt mean
15:00that I donāt have any grief.
15:05One does have regrets.
15:08...Iām sure you must have some as well.
15:11Everyone has them.
15:14What do you regret?
15:17I do have themā¦
15:20several in fact.
15:28I was also unsuccessful in love.
15:36My beloved became someone elseās.
15:51And the other thing is that,
15:52In my upbringing and education
15:55apart from my parents my teacher had a huge contribution
16:02He taught meā¦..
16:05the Quran.
16:07He taught me self-awareness.
16:11But sadly
16:15I couldnāt do anything for him.
16:23Who was this teacher of yours?
16:26Uhā¦
16:27His name was
16:30Amanat Ali.
16:33At some distance from hereā¦
16:35There is a Mosque
16:38He would come there quite often.
16:42I owe himā¦.
16:45a huge debt.
16:49May God give him ā¦.
16:52the highest place in Heaven.
16:56Amen.
17:00Amen.
17:02Anyways,
17:04look at me going on and on like this and taking up your time.
17:08Iāll go and make you a really good cup of coffee.
17:32Whereās Alishba?
17:39Nosheen?
17:40Yes?
17:42Whereās my daughter?
17:44Sheās with papa.
17:48Okay.
17:50Whatās wrong with you?
17:51Nothingās wrong with me.
17:54My dear wife, your face is showing me clearly that somethingās up.
17:59So tell me outright as to whatās troubling you.
18:03Kamran, Iāmā¦
18:05worried about Shahzain.
18:07Leave it.
18:09He must be quite happy with Minahil
18:11so youāre worrying about him quite unnecessarily.
18:16Minahil and aunty have sold their house and moved to America.
18:20What?!
18:22Faryal told me.
18:26Soā¦
18:28So whereās Shahzain?
18:31I donāt knowā¦
18:32even Faryal doesnāt know.
18:34Sheās tried searching for him⦠made several phone calls to him but heās not answering her calls.
18:39Nosheen.. I donāt understand⦠what are you saying?
18:44You should be grateful papa doesnāt know about this otherwise he would have gotten even sicker.
18:49Itās a good thing you havenāt told him.
18:54So, if Minahil sold the house and left, then Shahzain should have come here?
19:00Or he should have phoned me, gotten in touch - at least told me!
19:04Heās an idiot I swear.
19:06You know how stubborn he can be.
19:09He will never ask us for help.
19:11So, what if he had to ask papa for his forgiveness.
19:14...Or if he had to bring Minahil and live here.
19:17Papa had agreed to it as is.
19:19His sense of ego and pride really irritate me.
19:23He simply doesnāt understand.
19:25Kamran this isnāt entirely his fault, we are also at fault.
19:28Nosheen ā¦Forget it,
19:31youāre getting unnecessarily emotional about him.
19:34All of us⦠always bended because of him
19:37papa has always forgiven him his mistakes
19:39but he doesnāt know how to bend and or compromise!
19:42But that doesnāt mean that he should be left in whatever condition heās in!
19:46But heās -
19:47Heās suffering Kamran!
19:50Iām afraid that something might happen to him.
19:53Please find him.
19:55Please!
20:14Itās been so many days, but Minahil still hasnāt phoned me.
20:18She hasnāt even asked whether I was dead or alive.
20:25But just because she isnāt calling me
20:29doesnāt mean that I shouldnāt call and tell her Iām waiting for her.
20:41Shahzain,
20:42this new projectās come in
20:44so could you just have a look through it?
20:46I would like you to present it at tomorrowās meeting.
20:50Shahzain?
20:53Whatās wrong?
20:55Its nothingā¦
20:56I have a bit of a headache that is all.
20:59You look quite unwell from your face.
21:02Umā¦
21:03Why donāt you do one thing, go home.
21:06Its okay⦠its no big deal.
21:08Shahzain,
21:11you have really high fever!
21:13Um⦠Do one thing, Iāll see to your work,
21:16and you go on home.
21:17Iāll see to this.
21:20Thanks.
21:30You take care.
21:44Do you ever speak to Faryal?
21:47I phone her sometimes.
21:49She doesnāt have much time to talk you know.
21:54Did they get to know
21:56about Shahzainās location?
21:59Where could he be
22:01but with his second wife.
22:04Besides I donāt speak to Faryal about Shahzain.
22:08I donāt want to upset my sister.
22:11I get the feeling that this matter has to do with something else.
22:17What are you trying to say?
22:22I met Shahzain a few days back and he was in a rather pathetic condition.
22:27Looking at him I felt that there was something very wrong.
22:31What do you mean⦠what was wrong.
22:33Speak plainly.
22:35What happened to Shahzain?
22:37I even went to meet Shahzain at his office.
22:41...But I didnāt meet him.
22:44And then even Faryal avoided the topic.
22:47You need to find out from Faryal about whatās happening because there is something wrong.
22:53...Or maybe I should
22:55speak to Ibrahim uncle myself?
22:56No, ā¦
22:58Iāll speak to Ibrahim uncle in my own way.
23:01Forget it.
23:04All this is a result of the leniency you and Faryal have showed them
23:08Had you two listened to me from day one, they would have remembered their place.
23:15Neither Shahzain would not have done as he pleased nor gotten into a second marriage.
23:19Whose second marriage are you t alking about, brother Sajid?
23:24It was Shahza -
23:25Itās nothing Zohaib! We were just talking is all.
23:30Why are you hiding it from him?
23:33Heās bound to find out one of these days.
23:45Hello?
23:47Yes, go ahead.
23:52Sister-in-law�
23:53Uhā¦
23:54Iād better see to the curry....It was on the stove it must have burnt.
24:04Shahzainā¦
24:08and a second marriage?
24:15Oh hey, whatās wrong?
24:17Do you intend sleeping the whole day or what?
24:20Get up.
24:21Iāve made a really good cup of tea.
24:23Get up and drink it.
24:25Come on, get up.
24:28Oh hey,
24:30you have a really high fever!
24:34Why didnāt you tell me earlier that you had such high fever???
24:37Come along be good and get upā¦. Weāll go to the hospital.
24:40I donāt want to go anywhere.
24:42I⦠Iāll be fine.
24:43How will you get better like this?
24:46Have you seen your condition?
24:48You have a really high fever!
24:50Donāt take this lightly.
24:51Come on get up and Iāll take you to the hospital.
24:53As I just said, Iām fine.
24:56You wonāt get better like this! Get up and weāll go to the hospital!
24:59No, no, I donāt want to go to the hospital, please.
25:02Okay fine, we wonāt go to the hospital.
25:05Thereās a very nice clinic nearby so weāll go there.
25:09Thereās a good doctor there.
25:10Now come on get up⦠get up.
25:12Good⦠good get up.
25:13Comeā¦Show some courage
25:14Get upā¦Get up
25:15Get upā¦
25:19Come on now⦠careful nowā¦easy
25:31Whatās the matter Zohaib?
25:33Did you want something?
25:35Yes.
25:37I want some answers to certain questions.
25:42What do you mean?
25:44I overheard you
25:47and brother Sajid talking⦠that
25:51Shahzain had gotten married for a second time?
25:56I wanted to tell you
25:58but Faryal told me not to in all strictness.
26:03Sister-in-lawā¦You know how
26:05I always worry about Faryal,
26:09I would always ask you about Faryal even when I called you all from Dubai.
26:13And youā¦
26:14you would always lie to me and say that she was fine and happy.
26:20But if truth be told she is neither fine and nor is she happy!
26:27She didnāt tell me a thing
26:30and nor did you.
26:31What should I have told you Zohaib?
26:34My sister was destined for Shahzainās unfaithfulness and thatās what she got!
26:40And then Shahzain got married a second time around to Minahil after marrying Faryal!
26:45He was very cruel to her.
26:49And whatās sad in all this is
26:51that she never said a thing about it to anyone.
26:55She bore everything all by herself.
26:58In fact, we found about his second marriage after quite some time as well.
27:05What more should I have told you Zohaib?
27:08That Minahil treated my sister even worse than any housemaid.
27:14And that fool bore all of it thinking that maybeā¦
27:19maybe Shahzain might start loving her and maybe start to care about her some day.
27:28A promise to my father,
27:30uncle Ibrahimās honorā¦
27:32to maintain everyoneās respect and relationshipsā¦
27:35Faryal made many sacrifices
27:41Oh God,
27:44so much has happened,
27:47and you didnāt tell me a thing?
27:50Even now had you not overheard our conversationā¦
27:53I would probably not have told you anything
27:57You were very unfair not to tell me sister-in-law.
27:59What else was I supposed to do Zohaib?
28:00I had no choice, I was helpless.
28:03My sister would have gotten angry with me had I told you anything.
28:06Faryal is mad!
28:08Sheās always thoughtful of others!
28:11Sheās willing to sacrifice her happiness for anyone and everyone!
28:15This is life
28:17and not a joke?!
28:19Youāve started working at the office now
28:22so please ask Faryal whatās happened to Shahzain.
28:27She never talks about anything to do with him.
28:34I will definitely ask her.
28:38Itās about
28:40Her life and future now.
29:03Shahzain,
29:05Did you not have your medicine?
29:07How will your pain ease if you donāt have it?
29:12At least have the painkiller.
29:15I just have this small request
29:18Have the medicine.
29:21It will give you ease.
29:23Otherwise, your pain will increase
29:27and then weāll have to take you in an emergency to the hospital.
29:31On oath to your motherā¦
29:34Have the medicine
29:37Please?
29:44Shahzain?
29:49Hmm?
29:52Faryal?
30:12What did you wish to discuss madam?
30:17Uhā¦
30:17Send me the minutes of the meeting.
30:21Alright fine.
30:40What is it, Zohaib?
30:42Do I need to have a reason to speak to you?
30:47What is going on Faryal?
30:50What are you talking about?
30:54You know very well what Iām talking about, Faryal.
30:58Shahzain got married a second time
31:01and he didnāt accept you did he?
31:02Who told you this?
31:04Youāre under some misapprehension.
31:07Why are you lying?
31:09Youāre reacting as if nothing has happened?
31:11Everythingās fine and Iām very happy with Shahzain and he really cares a lot about me.
31:17How many more lies will you tell me?
31:20For Godās sake stop it.
31:23I know the whole truth!
31:25Sister-in-law told me everything.
31:27She told me that Shahzainās made your life a living hell!
31:33Now see here Zohaib,
31:35I donāt know what my sister told you
31:38but I do want to say one thing, this is my personal business!
31:41And you are not to interfere in it.
31:47...And please leave now.
32:07I just donāt get it
32:09what papa was thinking to employ him.
32:16Hello Shahzain?
32:18Uh⦠Is this Miss. Faryal speaking?
32:20Yes.
32:21Whereās Shahzain?
32:22Is everything alright?
32:23Yes, he⦠uh⦠-
32:28Hello?
32:29Hello?
32:30Where are you, Shahzain?
32:31Are you alright?
32:33Yes, Iām fine.
32:34Iām at the hostel right now.
32:36Youāre in a hostel?
32:41Uh⦠Yes⦠uhā¦
32:43Iāllā¦
32:45call you in a bitā¦...I dialed your number by mistake actually.
32:47But Shahzain�
33:01Why did you phone Faryal?
33:03You were getting sicker⦠so much so
33:06that you kept calling out, āFaryal, Faryalā even while sleeping.
33:10And then
33:12I found her number on your mobile
33:15so thought that I should inform her.
33:16Inform her about what!
33:20That Shahzain is dying here in this pathetic room?
33:23Or was it, āCome pick him up from here?ā
33:26Oh hey donāt get angry buddy.
33:28I was only -
33:28I donāt want your empathy!
33:30Let me die if I have to!
33:32By the way Sir, have you noticed somethingā¦
33:37That after having spoken to herā¦
33:39youāre suddenly a lot better
33:44Uhā¦
33:45No, no,
33:46Youāre very sick
33:50so you should rest.
33:51Right?
33:52Why donāt you rest
33:53and Iāll go and make some tea and bring it for you, okay?
34:10Oh hey! Open that gate quickly!
34:12If it wonāt open then break it down!
34:23Your green tea papa.
34:25Oh thank you my dear.
34:27By the way your habit of working in the house hasnāt gone.
34:33Did you wish to speak to me about something?
34:36No, nothing in particular.
34:39Sit down.
34:49Is everything okay at the office?
34:51Yes, its fine.
34:54Is Zohaib doing his job properly?
34:59Iāve never objected to any decision taken by you, papa.
35:02But you have an objection to my employing Zohaib.
35:05these past few days, Iāve been wonderingā¦
35:08that why you still hadnāt complained about it to me
35:13Thatās exactly what I donāt understand.
35:16Why did you take this decision?
35:18My dear, I made a promise to him when I was bringing you from that house.
35:21But I got you married to Shahzain without giving him an opportunity.
35:28I want to forget the past.
35:32Had everything been fine I would never have tried to change things.
35:40But I didnāt employ Zohaib because of this, he was deserving of it.
35:44And besides I have full faith in my daughter.
35:48But I do have a request from you.
35:50Think of Shahzain as your past and move forward in your life.
35:55...Like the way heās moved forward.
35:56Thatās just the problem.
35:58One can move forward
36:02but one canāt go back.
