On a trip back home, he meets his old friend, Alok Nath (forget his name). Kishorilal (Amrish Puri) is an NRI whose heart belongs to his homeland, India (or so he says). Kusum Ganga: Ask yourself! The kind of love you give to people, that's the kind of love I want! You've all mistaken me for some innocent little painting that you've framed in gold, and now you want me to hang on these walls in silence and become a part of this false decor! This isn't the dream Ganga came to this foreign land with, is it Arjun?īriefly, the story goes like this. Kusum Ganga: No one loves me! Amd I don't want this kind of love!Īrjun Saagar: Then what kind of love do you want, huh? What kind of love are you asking for? Kusum Ganga: A smalll matter? This is a small matter? A small matter? THIS is what you call small! Look, I don't want wan't to live is some palace made of gold! I want the love of a human, a human!Īrjun Saagar: Everyone loves you, don't they? Kusum Ganga: THIS is what Rajeev is like!Īrjun Saagar: Now, Ganaga, you'll have to learn to adjust to these small matters. Kusum Ganga: Yes, you! Aren't you the one who told me Rajeev is like this, Rajeev is like that. Kusum Ganga: Everything that happened was wrong, everything! And you're the one responsible! It is just the beginning as Arjun falls in love with his would-have-been bhabhi while playing Cupid and leads to a love triangle. Don't conclude that it is the end of the Bollywood fairy tale. So, the heartbroken Kusum returns to India. Arjun is portrayed as an Indian at heart and the hero of the film! All is hunky-dory till the true Bharatiya Nari finds out that her future husband is not a teetotaler. The reverse does not fit into this movie.
