01:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:18 A kind of a dream song, but it is in real time.
01:21 Because I am imagining that Shah Rukh is following me
01:24 around the place.
01:25 And he's on the bus with me.
01:26 And he's on the road with me, whatever.
01:28 I am playing a character who is a girl who
01:31 works in a cancer ward, who's basically a social worker.
01:34 And she is a girl who's basically very tough,
01:38 who's very practical, but very giving in terms of she
01:42 wants to make life bearable for people who are probably
01:45 on their last--
01:47 they're on their last rows of life.
01:49 And she's somebody who wants to put a smile on everybody's face.
01:51 And she meets Shah Rukh on the road one day
01:53 when he's trying to jump over a painting of the god
01:56 in the road.
01:57 He's trying to--
01:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:59 And she tells him, she says, you're going to save god.
02:02 And your god will just kill you.
02:03 So she's an extremely practical girl.
02:05 And there's a very cute scene where they meet.
02:08 And it's a very strange kind of meeting.
02:12 And she likes the guy.
02:13 He makes her smile.
02:14 So she comes home, and she's thinking about him.
02:16 And she imagines that he's--
02:17 she's sitting on the bus, going home.
02:18 And she imagines that he's there.
02:19 And she imagines that he's walking on the road with her.
02:22 So it's kind of an imagination in real time.

03:29 [NON-ENGLISH SINGING]
03:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:01 See, I mean, I don't know.
04:02 I feel that, yeah, I think we have Shah Rukh to thank
04:07 or blame for that.
04:09 Somewhere he did change the trend in terms of "Bazigar."
04:12 And he played a character.
04:14 He was not afraid to do that.
04:15 He played a character, and it paid off for him.
04:17 He was not saying, I'm being hero, I'm being a villain,
04:19 I'm playing whatever, whatever.
04:21 He played a character, and it paid off for him.
04:22 And I think, yeah, well, you have more films
04:24 like that being made today.
04:26 And I mean, I think it is more real, because I mean,
04:30 eventually we all know that if there are so many angles
04:33 to a love story, I mean, it's not very practical to think
04:37 that somebody will always back off.
04:38 I mean, why do things have to be hunky-dory and pretty, pretty
04:41 all the time?
04:42 And this is different, because I guess here,
04:44 nobody's backing off.
04:45 Everybody's saying that, yeah, OK, what the hell,
04:47 I'm going to go for it, and I'm going to fight for it.
04:49 That's what makes "Chahat" interesting, I guess.

05:36 [MUSIC - "CHAHAT"]
05:39 [NON-ENGLISH SINGING]
06:07 [INAUDIBLE]
06:10 Yeah, well, "Violet," in a sense, it gets violent,
06:24 because it is primarily about Shah Rukh and Anupam,
06:28 who have a very interesting father-son relationship
06:30 in the film.
06:31 And they come to Bombay, because Anupam is--
06:34 we discover that he's suffering from cancer.
06:36 And because he's got to pay for the treatment,
06:38 Shah Rukh goes and works-- he's a singer, too.
06:40 He goes and works in this hotel, which
06:41 is run by Nasir and Rami.
06:43 Rami is a character who gets totally obsessed with him.
06:45 She's had a very traumatic relationship before,
06:47 and she has a series of relationships
06:49 that get very intense and get totally suicidal.
06:52 And she is totally obsessed with Shah Rukh.
06:54 And somewhere, he has to play up to her,
06:56 because he has to pay for his father's treatment.
06:58 And his relationship with me, in the meantime,
07:00 kind of enters a stormy patch because of that.
07:03 And he kind of sells himself to her,
07:05 because he's got to raise the money.
07:07 And I understand that, and I walk away from his life.
07:10 But then he realizes that, no, he can't do that,
07:12 because he is in love with me.
07:13 And it's very violent in the sense that it is--
07:16 Rami wants him at all costs.
07:18 And Nasir is playing a brother who would do whatever,
07:21 but he's going to keep his sister happy.
07:22 So it kind of gets-- it is violent, but in a real way.
07:26 It's not just action for the sake of action.
07:29 So it deals with human wants, which is just very obvious.
07:33 I mean, she wants him, and, you know.
07:37 [MUSIC PLAYING]
07:40 [NON-ENGLISH SINGING]
07:58 [NON-ENGLISH SINGING]
08:26 "Chahat" comprises of lots of interesting relationships
08:29 and very interesting characters.
08:30 Like, Anupam and Shahrukh's relationship
08:32 is a father-son relationship, very interesting relationship.
08:35 Even my relationship with Shahrukh is, again,
08:37 a boy meets girl, you know, whatever.
08:39 But it's treated very differently.
08:41 Ramiya and Shahrukh's relationship,
08:42 Ramiya and my relationship, Nasir and Ramiya's relationship.
08:45 So it's normal, conventional relationships
08:47 treated very differently.
08:49 And I guess that's what makes it different.
08:51 So I guess people should just watch it.
