M and I went to watch Kahaani yesterday.
Sitting beside me were this young couple. Dating, I presumed, from the nature of their conversation. Yes, I shamelessly eavesdropped, I admit. Only a little though, for the movie was too gripping to listen to everything they were saying. Two particular lines amused me to an extent that I simply had to share them here.
Scene in the movie: Vidya Balan checks into the motel/guest house for the first time. When she's alone, she bursts into tears.
Boy (in an incredulous tone): Why is she crying??
Girl (presumably rolling her eyes in the dark): Because she can't find her husband, DUH!!
**
Scene in the movie: Vidya Balan is pregnant, yet sending her husband away for a two-week assignment in a different city.
Girl (in a puppy voice): You'll also leave me like that, re?
Boy (also in puppy voice): No baby, I'll never leave you re!
**
After a while, they abandoned all pretense of watching the movie, devoting their time to declaring their affections and discussing love-hurdles. I could only pick up bits and pieces of these.
Overheard:
Boy: How can she not accept it re? I love you so much, I'll take care of you so well. I'll explain to her re, how much I love you.
Ah, the trials and tribulations of young love! On a side note, Kahaani totally kicks Don's ass.
