00:00Sir, everyone's heartbeats get faster when you speak.
00:02You're making me a romantic hero.
00:05It's getting faster.
00:11It's starting to melt.
00:16Shumaila.
00:18Sir, I've made a picture of you on my hand.
00:23Where? Show me.
00:26I don't look like any other hero. I look like one, right?
00:28Sir, she even wrote your name.
00:30I'm telling you seriously, my mom used to apply henna to me when it was hot in Delhi.
00:36So, they used to say that if you apply henna, it won't be too hot.
00:41So, my mom used to make it round.
00:44Sonia, you're married.
00:46Hello. Thank you, sir.
00:48Congratulations, Sonia.
00:50You should have waited for me. I would have done it.
00:53But, God bless you. When did you get married?
00:5625th November.
00:58Are you happy?
00:59Yes.
01:00What's your husband's name?
01:01Ratan.
01:02Is Ratan good?
01:02Yes, he's very good. He even sent a message for you.
01:06He also wanted to talk to you. But, let me tell you his message.
01:10First of all, he wanted to greet you.
01:13And he wanted to thank you for coming forward and setting an example for acid attack survivors.
01:21If you hadn't been there, I don't know how many survivors would have been treated.
01:24And he prays to God for your health and success.
01:28And he wants to meet you soon.
01:31Please, when we meet next time, please congratulate Ratan on my behalf.
01:36Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.
01:38Tell him that you're such a good girl. You're so lucky.

03:02That's the start.
03:03Sir, after this, you'll have a line of names.
03:07I'll get some work later.

03:18No, sir. Actually, I have an operation on Tuesday.
03:22So, I'm at Max Hospital.
03:24Can you hear in your ears? Are you better?
03:27Look at me. I'm talking to the earphones.
03:31I'm asking such silly questions.
03:33You're absolutely fine. I'm feeling good.
03:35I'm absolutely fine, sir.
03:37There's no problem. I'm so happy, sir.
03:40Thank you so much.
03:41Stay like this. Stay healthy. Stay happy.
03:44Take good care of yourself.
03:45I'm very happy that your ear pain is over.
03:48Yes, it's over. Thank you, sir.
03:50I'm so happy. I'm so, so happy.
03:51Genuinely, I'm very happy that you're fine.
03:54How are you, sir? Namaskar.
03:56I'm fine. I'm very fine. I'm very happy.
03:59Your ear pain is gone.
04:02I'm listening to you all.
04:04I can't tell you how much time I've spent in the hospital listening to your songs.
04:10Which song do you like?
04:12The song, Kal Ho Na Ho Ka.
04:16I'll sing a song for you.
04:17You start and I'll join you.
04:191, 2, 3. Start.
04:22Every moment has changed.
04:26The form of life has changed.
04:29Sometimes there's a shadow.
04:33Sometimes there's a form of life.
04:37Every moment here.
04:40Live your life to the fullest.
04:43Whatever it is,
04:47whether it's tomorrow or not.
04:50How are you?
04:51I'm absolutely fine. Are you feeling better?
04:54I'm feeling a lot better.
04:56I want to say something.
04:57Yes, tell me.
04:58The last time there was an earthquake in West Bengal,
05:02there were a lot of problems.
05:04The house, the shop, everything was completely destroyed.
05:07So, with the help of the Mir Foundation,
05:10my team,
05:12I also contacted a couple of girls.
05:15They all helped me a lot.
05:17They all thanked me.
05:22I just want to say that
05:25you should call us and meet us.
05:28Because you get a lot of energy from this.
05:31You get a lot of positivity.
05:33Ever since I've met the Mir Foundation,
05:35I've gotten a lot of energy.
05:38I'm so happy to meet you.
05:42I'm so happy to meet you too, Vanisha.
05:46Hello, sir. How are you?
05:48Hi, Arun. How are you?
05:50I'm fine, sir.
05:51All well with you?
05:52What's going on?
05:53What were you doing during the pandemic?
05:55Nothing, sir.
05:56I was doing my service.
05:58You just gave an offer to Sonia,
06:00who's already married.
06:02You didn't give an offer to the bachelor.
06:04What's the need for an offer
06:06to a bachelor?
06:08No, sir. I'm not a bachelor for you.
06:10One day, you'll give me an offer.
06:12I'm done, Aruna. Tell me the date.
06:14I'll be back from the pandemic.
06:16Where do you live?
06:18Just sing a line.
06:20Kis ka hai tumko intazaar?
06:22I'm waiting for you, Aruna.
06:24Kis ka hai tumko intazaar?
06:26I'm waiting for you, Aruna.
06:28Love you, Aruna. God bless you.
06:30Be healthy and happy.
06:33Hi, sir.
06:35Hi, sir.
06:37When is the surgery?
06:39I didn't get the date,
06:41but I was moving forward.
06:43When I met you for the first time,
06:45I couldn't stop looking at you.
06:47I couldn't even talk to you.
06:49Can I talk to you now?
06:51When is the surgery?
06:53Sir, I've taken tomorrow's date.
06:55Tomorrow?
06:57Yes.
06:59I pray that everything goes well.
07:01Thank you, sir.
07:03You'll be fine without any pain.
07:05Talk to me now.
07:07We'll talk again the day after tomorrow.
07:09So, all the best.
07:11Please look after yourself.
07:13Don't postpone it. Get well soon.
07:15Hi, Aruna. How are you?
07:17I'm good, sir. How are you?
07:19When was your surgery?
07:21It was last November.
07:23In 2019.
07:25Are you feeling better?
07:27Yes, sir.
07:29My chin and neck were attached.
07:31Yes.
07:33So, it's feeling better now?
07:35Yes, sir.
07:37Okay.
07:39I couldn't even look at you.
07:41I'm fine now.
07:43Did the physiotherapist tell you
07:45to do physiotherapy?
07:47He didn't tell me anything.
07:49You take it easy on today.
07:51Along with surgeries like Mir Foundation,
07:53we also have upskill development training
07:55and employment training.
07:58We're trying to connect
08:00with other companies
08:02so that survivors
08:04can get employment opportunities.
08:06We've been working together
08:08even during the pandemic.
08:10Mir Foundation has never
08:12left us alone.
08:14I'd like to thank you
08:16and Geetika again
08:18for this.
08:20I'd like to thank you, Shaheen
08:22and Geetika,
08:24both of you and the rest of your team.
08:26You all work so hard.
08:28I can't thank you enough.
08:30If it wasn't for you,
08:32we wouldn't have made it.
08:34So, please do the skill development.
08:36I'd like to tell all of you
08:38to take care of yourselves.
08:40No matter what happens,
08:42don't worry.
08:44Sometimes, we wonder
08:46why this happened to us.
08:48What happened to you
08:50might not have
08:52affected the world.
08:55But the happiest thing
08:57is that you all
08:59are so brave
09:01and your smiles
09:03are so pure.
09:05I'm so happy
09:07that you all
09:09with such grit
09:11and determination
09:13are fighting this through.
09:15I can only pray
09:17that we can be together
09:19and make each other happy.
09:21So, we'll do that.
09:23I really enjoyed talking to you
09:25and listening to your songs.
09:27But what I like the most is
09:29when you hug me.
09:31You give me so much love
09:33and peace of mind.
09:35Thank you very much.
09:37All of you, I love you very much.
09:39Thank you so much.
09:41Thank you, Shaheen
09:43for hosting this.
09:45Geetika, once again, God bless you
09:47and all of you.
09:49May you all be happy
09:51God bless you all.
09:53Thank you so much.
