Let’s get
to it shall we?

| Durga and Rohit |
Rana had mobilized
men and laid an ambush for Rohit. He falls into their trap and they beat him
almost to death. When he had fought with all his might to no avail, he
succumbed to the brutality. Rana and his colleahues lift him into his car and
rolls it down a cliff into the river. They want to make it look like he
drowned.
As the car rolls, Rohit knows he is dying but has no strength left to
jump out of the car; instead, he uses the last bit of energy in him to hold on
to Rana as the car speeds past him. The death grip was unbreakable as he takes
Rana along with him to the land of the dead.
As the
bandage came off, Durga was told the devastating news of Rohit’s death. She
demands to see his body but it had been washed off by floods.
The days
after were hell for Durga and even the doctor. With Rohit’s death, there is
nowhere for Durga to go and so the doctor volunteers to house her. Time and
time again, she attempts suicide but is always rescued by the doctor.
The doctor
sees that her depression increases with her presence in the town and decides to
relocate her. Perhaps, going away would help her get over Rohit, her ‘Babu’.
He moves
with her to Switzerland but that doesn’t cure her depression. The fact that she
could see even multiplied her grief because the one person for whom she
earnestly wished her sight restored was no more.
She spends
each day indoor brooding. Nothing amused or excited her and she always wished
to be alone. Dr. Prasad tries all he can to make her let go of Rohit’s memory
but all efforts proved futile. So when he gets the invitation to attend a party
organized for multi-millionaire, Raj, he believes luck may very well shine on
his efforts. He knows a lot of people would be there and believes Durga may be
forced to mingle.
Durga goes
for the party but stands in one corner staring into the swimming pool. Raj, the
celebrant is holed in his room. He is not a people person and is not excited to
be in the party. He is mourning a lost friend. When the time comes for the
celebrant to come out, he does so reluctantly refusing to bask in the arrogance
that is associated with the mighty and wealthy. He greets people and makes for
a quiet corner to continue his brooding.
His eyes
fall on sad Durga and her beauty and serenity calls to him. He heeds the call
and goes to meet her but Durga is in no mood for small talk. She ignores him
but Dr Prasad shows up at the right time to initiate discussions with an
introduction.
Afterwards,
something in Raj wakes up and he is no longer moody. He visits Dr Prasads home
always hoping to know Durga better; but she is shut off in her own sad and depressed
world.
He keeps
at it for months and one day, Durga lets go of her annoyance. She yells at him when
they are at his house asking to be left alone. She asked to taken home. Raj,
who had been told of Durga’s lost love equally loses his cool. He lets her know
she is not the only person in mourning. He takes her by the hand leading her
into a room in his mansion. He shows her photos of his childhood friend who he
lost to death. he tells her that they are best friends but he died in his prime.
Durga is
startled as she stares at the stranger’s pictures. She is surprised at how
emotional Raj suddenly is and is sorry she yelled at him. Unknown to Durga, the
picture she is staring at is the face of her Rohit. She is blissfully unaware
of this because she never saw his face for once.
After that
encounter, she begins to Raj in but painfully. Soon, Raj who is heads over
heels in love with her proposes to her. She tells the doctor who encourages her
to say yes. He tells her to purge her memory of Rohit since he is dead and move
on. She reluctantly agrees and engagement plans get underway fast.
The day
for the engagement comes and everyone is happy. While Raj waits for the time to
dance with his bride, he gets a phone call. He is needed urgently at the
hospital.
He excuses
himself and rushes to the hospital. There, he is told that someone wanted to
see him. He moves into the ward and stands in shock at the face before him. Right
there in his presence stands Rohit with a bandage wrapped around his head and
his beard overgrown. Raj cannot believe it and runs into his arms. His friend
has come back to life.
He takes
his friend with him and in thecar tells him he is engaged and that the ceremony
is still in progress. He is so excited as he tells Rohit one thing after
another that he has missed since his disappearance. Rohit on the other hand
tells him how he was resued by a man and has since been on admission and in
coma.
They talk
on until they get to the engagement party. Raj tells Rohit to come and see the
woman that has made him the happiest man in the world. Rohit loves his friend and
wants the best for him, so he takes a step into the filled hall. He stretches to
catch a glimpse of Raj’s woman but since she is dancing, it is pretty hard. But
the moment she turns and his eyes dwell on his face, balls of tears well up in
his eyes.
His best friend is getting married to the love of his life…
