l don't have a soft corner for him.

But I guess you do...

- He'll get trapped, Mrs. Sengupta.

- They are a powerful family.

- Take him away.

But...

everybody deserves a second chance.

- Here... a ticket for Calcutta.

Thank you!

One more ticket, please.

l don't know why but...

l wasn't really concerned

about Jhilmil's disappearance.

In fact, I was happy.

Because, finally Barfi was mine.

But someone who loses their Love...

and goes on with life,

who knew that better than me.

Living with Barfi I realised that...

l finally got my opportunity.

But a littLe too late.

There I was with Barfi...

but Barfi was still devoted to Jhilmil.

- So, you're Barfi.

- You're here looking for Jhilmil.

But why here?

JhiLmil had the number of this place.

So he thought... his last hope...

Why would Jhilmil be here?

It's been so long since--

Jhilmil didn't come here.

Please leave!

Please go away.

Please go!

JhiLmiL is not here.

JhiLmiL is not here!

- Get him... catch him...

Daju...

Jhilmil...

l hope you haven't told anyone.

Please don't.

- What could I do...

I was in a mess.

I thought she'd go missing

for a few hours.

-This was the best way to get money

from my own family!

The debts were killing me.

JhiLmil's grandpa made sure

I only got a measlly amount every month.

- He left the rest of his wealth

in Jhilmil's Trust Fund.

- This was the only way to

get funds out of the Trust.

I made a mistake.

A grave mistake.

- I really care about Jhilmil, Daju.

Will you take Jhilmil

away from here again?

Yes.

Her mother wouldn't want her

to be here.

Do you still need the money?

Jhilmil is...

very happy here.

Daju looked at

Barfi's attempts in silence.

Here was Barfi...

who cared for Jhilmil even

more than he did.

Whether Jhilmil would stay back at Muskaan

or go away with Barfi....

was a decision

he left to Jhilmil.

- Barfi...

- Barfi!

That was the love

I always yearned for.

Just like my grandparents.

True love.

To live together and die together...

in each other's arms.

So no ones left behind in tears.

They left...

together.

Leaving me all alone.

lt could have been me

instead of Jhilmil.

But it was Jhilmil who got Barfi.

Because she didn't

plan to fall in love.

She didn't think

about the consequences.

She didn't think

how life would turn out.

She just loved him unconditionally.

And it all turned out well

in the end.
