Barfi!
The movie is about to start...
Spread love and joy
But don't spread your
legs too far in front
Switch on your clockwork hearts
and tear glands
and wailing children.
Love in today's world..
is like instant noodles.
when it reaches your stomach,
it's mostly over
Love in today's world
is born through Facebook
Comes of age in backseats of cars
And dies in cold legal courts
Our story is about
a very different Kind of love
A love filled with rainbows and dreams
It's not a selfish kind of love
It's not a messy kind of love
It's a love that will tickle and linger
The movie is about to start...
That I didn't have a single
good photograph of him.
But his answer was
always the same.
I'll send you one before I die.
You can have that framed.
And true to his word...
Barfi fulfilled his last promise.
Since i was a child,
my idea of love was...
to Live together...
and die together.
Just like my grandparents.
I was ten,
And, a day Later,
my grandma also left us.
I yearned for that kind of love.
But Barfi was miles away in Darjeeling
breathing his last.
i wasn't sure if i'd make it in time.
I had learned from Barfi...
that happiness is found in the little things.
Even a bowl of water is enough
for ships to sail in.
And if you truly believe...
even paper birds can take flight.
And for some strange reason, unknowingly...
into his life.
But he never complained...
neither about me...
nor about the difficulties.
Barfi!
ln the name of the law...
l order you to stop!
You fools!
what are you doing down there?
He's on the roof!
Get up here now!
- Barfi!
Move out of the way!
lnspector, there seems to be a mistake.
This isn't a mistake.
And thank you very much, Mrs. sengupta.
l wouldn't have caught him,
if you hadn't filed a complaint.
Where are you taking him?
London!
Just joking, Mrs. sengupta.
we're taking him to Darjeeling.
Let's go.
Ma'am, sir is on the Line.
- Why did the cops come home?
You didn't even bother informing me.
- Hello!
who is Barfi?
- Who the helll is he to you?
- We've never had cops in our house before...
who is Barfi to me?
i had no answer to Ranjeet's question.
- shruti?
After six years of being married to Ranjeet,
why was Barfi stilI important to me?
Please give this to Ranjeet.
That day, I broke all ties
to help Barfi.
i guess, i could take such a
drastic step only because...
I was still as deeply in love with Barfi...
as i was the first time i met him.
That was when my dad
had to relocate to DarjeeLing.
Roll-up the window.
You'll catch a cold.
- who will believe she's
getting married in three months?
what is it?
- Wait, Let me check.
- Hillcart Road...
- Hillcart Road.
ldiot!
I don't want to talk about Barfi.
I've spent half my life running after him.
If it weren't for Barfi...
I'd have retired as
the superintendent of Police.
But now, I sell Homeopathy pills.
Homeopathy!
That rascal Barfi!
Barfi spread love everywhere he went.
But never wanted anything in return.
No wonder he had so many well-wishers.
Barfi and I were childhood friends.
we had a lot of fun.
He was hearing and speech impaired.
But that didn't stop him
from being stubborn.
He had a problem, though.
he thought...
That's why he always
put his close ones through a test.
His father lovingly named him...
Murphy, after the Murphy Radio Baby.
lf anyone asked him his name, he'd say...
Barfi!
Barfi.
You're wasting your time.
I am engaged.
Who sent this?
- Look I've put the clock back
by 15 minutes
- Assume that you and I never met.
- And assume I never proposed to you.
- Assume you have
made a new friend called Barfi.
- And assume this friend is helping you
plan your wedding.
How sweet!
- And now that
you've assumed all of this,
why don't you give in with a smiLe
and wave.
So cute!
l thought you told him you're engaged
so that he wouldn't bother you.
He's very handsome.
I know.
All the girls at the university
had a crush on him.
Love marriage?
What?
One fine day he waIked into the library...
held my hand and asked me...
"will you marry me?"
Then?
Then...
I never hide anything from my mother.
When I told her about Ranjeet...
she only had one question.
"What does his father do?"
After coming to Darjeeling,
I don't Know why...
I was happy to be away from Ranjeet.
Barfi came along Like a gust of wind...
and in a blink, i was swept
away from my ordinary Life...
i didn't realise it.
Barfi showed me how to live.
How to be adventurous.
And the most important lesson
I learned...
is that the biggest risk in life...
is never taking any risk at all.
Excuse me... Inspector Dutta?
You scoundrel!
- Barfi the Great!
You think you can
run from Inspector Dutta?
Inspector...
sir, please wait...
Mrs. sengupta...
from Calcutta!
Didn't take you long to get here!
Go on... beat him up.
lnspector, he can't talk.
Of course!
I know that.
we go back a long way.
I think there's been a mistake.
Don't you try to teach me.
There's been no mistake.
And if you want to help him...
find someone who can
communicate with him!
Because if I file a case against him
