00:00You like reading, don't you?
00:02Yes.
00:03What do you read?
00:04Emma, Jane Eyre, Eleanor and Park.
00:08Do you read?
00:09Yes, I do.
00:10What do you read?
00:12I read newspapers, magazines, twitter, facebook, shop bills.
00:18I saw you for the first time.
00:22I fell in love.
00:24What a coincidence!
00:26Their birth charts are the same.
00:28And their names are the same too.
00:29Mahi.
00:30My heart knows...
00:32Mahi, you have to hit a six on the front foot.
00:34Shut up!
00:35I'm a kid.
00:36My heart is in your lap.
00:39I want to look into your eyes.
00:42Why didn't you tell me?
00:43You like cricket.
00:44For me, cricket is life.
00:48But life is cricket.
01:00If you're tired, do some work.
01:02I need it in the shop.
01:03Why don't you have a picture of yourself?
01:06I see the sixes in life.
01:14Give me a year.
01:16I'll be selected.
01:17Don't snatch my dream.
01:19This dream?
01:22It's broken.
01:27Did you play cricket in school?
01:29No, I played in the neighborhood.
01:31You don't hit, you break.
01:35I'm going to make you a cricketer.
01:36I'm a doctor.
01:37Cricket...
01:38Mahi, I'll help you.
01:40I love you.
01:43Forget it.
01:44Do you know why you became a doctor?
01:46Because your father wanted it.
01:47What do you want to be, Mahi?
01:50Listen to your heart.
01:51You're made for cricket.
01:54Why are you taking this chance?
01:58I trust your talent.
02:00It's all for me.
02:02And who's mine?
02:11My hand is on my head.
02:12I'm getting bread and butter.
02:13The day my hand moves,
02:14where will you go?
02:15What will you do?
02:16The day I play for India,
02:18you'll put a picture of me on the beach.
02:23Did you ever want to make me a cricketer?
02:28You were using me like a ladder.
02:30I had a chance to tell everyone that I'm something.
02:32That I've done something in life.
02:34I'm not made for cricket.
02:41If cricket is the thing, Mahi,
02:44that makes you the happiest,
02:46then you're made for cricket.
