Dil Jaanta Hai

PART 2: MEMORIES

*Krish ends the call and looks towards Ram*

Krish: I am Priya's emergency contact. She was in an accident. She just went in for surgery. She is in Goa. (looks at Naina)

Naina: I'll bring Keshav and a few clothes. You go get the car and book the flight.

Ram: I already booked three flight tickets, just tell me your name, Naina?

Krish: Dixit.

Ram: Adi has booked the tickets. My driver will drive us to the airport, I will wait for you in the car downstairs.

Krish: Yeah. Okay.

Naina: He really loves her...

Krish: He does.

*In the car*

Ram: Tarun paani hai?

Krish: *offers Ram a water bottle* Filtered hai

Ram: *nods* Thanks

Ram (thinking): Kal tak mein Priya se nafrat karne ki koshish kar raha tha aur aaj, kuch ghanto mein meri puri zindagi badal gayi. Priya aur mera baby, Priya ko yeh sab akele karna pada... I can't even imagine how difficult it would've been for her. And now she is in the hospital. I just hope she gets well soon.

*After a couple hours they reach the hospital*

Ram: Priya Kap- Sood. Priya Sood.

Receptionist: Room 301

Doctor: Hi... you must be priya's family

Krish: Yes, I am Krish, her emergency contact.

Ram: How is she?

Doctor: The accident wasn't major b-

Nurse: Doctor, room 301 ki patient ho hosh aa gaya hai

Doctor: Pls wait here, i'll do a check up and come back.

*The doctor checks Priya and goes back to the hallway*

Doctor: Mr Krish... aap sab ab un se mil sakte hain, lekin make sure to not pressure her too much... unhe sir pe gehri chhot aai hai... waise regular tests are normal so nothing to worry about right now...

*Ram moves ahead to enter the room...The three of them enter, Ram sees Priya after 5 years... she is just laying on the bed, but for him its the best sight in the world. He stands there frozen, just staring at her.*

Nurse: Ma'am, aapki family aai hai...

*The nurse makes Priya sit up and adjusts the pillow behind her back. Priya stares at the three of them*

Krish: Hey

Priya: *stares at Ram*

Ram: H-H-Hi...

Priya: *looks at Krish and Naina*

Krish: Humme Ram mall mein mila aur hum ne usse sab bata diya...Sab nahi but...

Priya: Ek minute... Ram kaun? Aur aap sab log? Kaun ho aap? *looks around at the three of them*

Krish: Huh?

Priya: Who are you people? Aur mere room mein? Aur doctor kaha hai nurse... mera ultrasound le lena aaj pls... Last month bhi nahi liya... Baby theek hona chahiye... I can't lose it... Yeh mere pass unki aakhri nishaani hai... M... *holds her head* M...

(flashback: Priya calling Ram, Mr kapoor but its muffled and blurry so inaudible and not clearly visible)

Priya: Mujhe kuch yaad kyun nahi aa raha...

Ram: P-priya tum theek ho?

*Ram is trying to stop his tears because Priya, Ram ki Priya, can't even remember his name... But his concern for Priya takes over his tears*

Priya: Priya?? Priya kaun?? *while holding her head*

*The doctor enters...*

Doctor: Hi Nurse kya hua?

*Krish tells the doctor what just happened*

Doctor: Aap sab bahar jaaiye please...

*Ram doesn't move from his spot... Krish has to pull him out...*

*In the hallway- Ram sits on the floor, his knees up to his chest and his head in between his hands... he is breaking down... All priya remembers is that she is pregnant and she can't even remember her own name... After a while the doctor comes out and tells the diagnosis*

Doctor: I believe the physical stress has lead to Dissociative Amnesia... Matlab yaadash wapas aane mein kitne bhi time lag sakta hai, yashayad kabhi bhi aa aae, lekin abhi we shouldn't lose hope. Hume koshish karni chahiye uki yaadash waapas laane ke liye lekin unpe force nahi karna chahiye. Mr Krish pls unhe apni family se milayi ya familiar jagah le ke

Jaaiye... bas dhyan rakhna that you are patient, iska koi timeline nahi hota... memory kabhi bhi aa sakti hai, suddenly ya slowly.

Krish: Ji doctor...

*Ram gets up from the floor, let me talk to her...Ram enters the room.*

Ram: Hi

Priya: Hi... Doctor said I have had a memory loss so if I used to know you before then I am so sorry...

Ram: Don't worry about me, tumhe apne baare mein koi questions puchne hai?

Priya: I know that mera naam Priya hai aur i dont think is se zyada mujhe apne baare mein sun na hai... lekin aap please mujhe apne baare mein bataye

Ram: I am Ram Kapoor.

*Priya looks at Ram quizzically hoping she remembers something*

Priya: Sorry Ram kuch yaad nahi aaya... How did I know you? I mean sabse pehle aap aae matlab aap meri life mein koi important honge... oh sorry can i call u Ram?

Ram: Ab bhi smart ho tum... Aur tum pehle mujhe mr Kapoor bulati thi, Ram nahi. Tumhare Mr kapoor par copyright that samajh lo (smiles)

Priya: Ohh, Mr Kapoor... Got it. Toh yeh bataai ye aap mujhe kaise jaante hai?

Ram: tum mere saath kahi chalogi?

Priya: Pehle bataaiye kaha

Ram: Bahar, baarish ho rahi hai, chatt par chalogi?

Priya: Haa

Ram: Haa??

Priya: I love Baarish

Ram: I hate baarish

Priya: Toh fir chatt pe jaane ki baat kyun ki?

Ram: Aise hi... test kar raha tha...

Priya: Kya?

Ram: Ki kahi tum memory loss ka natak toh nahi kar rahi... Meri Priya ko baarish se nafrat thi, par 5 saalo mein kuch bhi badal sakta hai...

Priya: Meri Priya? 5 Saal?

Ram: Chatt par chalo, sab batauga
