Two nights ago while waiting for my third prince come back from doing assignment at the college, it was 11 pm when I acciddently switched on channel 122 on ASTRO and watch this Hindustan movie. I do not catch the title as I seldom bother to watch any movie on this channel. The reason being , one they are not in English, second they are normally ancient movies.

Anyway, just to pass the time, so I thought, I sat through and watched on... Bit by bit, I became intrigue and found myself glued to the TV. The story was as a usual Hindustani movie, was about a poor middle class girl from a small town, falling in love with a rich boy from a big city. But the interesting part was there was no dancing and very minima singing as in any normal Hindustani movie!! Surprise, surprise!! I was not bored then... Besides the usual boy loved girl, girl so shy to confess her love, I was impressed with the Indian cultures the movie trying to potray. In this modern world I sometimes wonder whether arranged marriage still exist, young man still obey the father's wish to wed him off to the girl he never met but it was a beautiful story, anyway....

I fell in love with the last 1/2 hour of the movie, where the girl burnt herself trying to save her cousin while their house caught fire just one day before her wedding day. In the midst of Indian rich culture and tradition of wedding celebrations, one firework got astrayed and landed on the many boxes of wedding clothes. Of course being a normal dramatic movie, in the chaos of the girl being upset because the aunty did not want to bless her, she fell asleep, woke up when the fire was at its peak. She got out, realised her cousin was still in, rushed in, save the cousin and burnt roof fell on her.

I was impressed with what the doctor told her uncle, forget about the wedding.. no man would want her now... but then the boy when heard about the news, rushed to the hospital, insisted on marrying her there and then, himself signed the consent form, brought in the surgeon from the city and operated on her. It was the true love that I saw, on how he took care of her, be at her side while she recuperated at the hospital, the conversations sometimes were so touching that tears flowed down my cheeks. I found myself wondering again if this kind of love still exists....

Anyway, being the normal, Hindustani movie, the ending was happy, months later when the girl was almost well, there was wedding celebration again, the rich Indian cultures shown. The doctor's last statement being, normally he treated a girl who got burnt because of dowry, and man deserted her but here is man insisted to marry a burnt girl, that what true love is about!!! I LOVE IT!!!
