When You Wish Upon A Star
When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you
Buaji asks Payal how much the ingredients cost today and Payal answers nearly 3000 rupees. Buaji is upset because the money today did not even cover the expenses. There were few customers and if we continue like this then we are done for. Buaji yells at Kushi that this is all due to her; she wished to open a store and prepare sweets. Aunt continues that kushi promised 100 customers would come guaranteed and all she did was give away jalebi free to children. Kushi retorts with Buaji a customer came and you scared him away! Payal said it would have been better if they returned to Lucknow. Kushi answers her with her heart. "Didi we cannot give up so easily. So what if nothing much happened today, tomorrow is another day. A new day, a new morning, we will make lots of jalebi and you'll see we will have more customers!"
If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do
ASR says to Lavanya to relax and Lavanya answers, "come on ASR so much has happened and you are telling me to relax. You don't even care that I am sitting here crying." She walks over to the vanity and sits down, she looks in the mirror and is upset how she looks. Her makeup is ruined and she is fixing her clothes. Pretty shallow, right? She says to ASR she knows he is with her and all will be well. Both of them can handle the situation. Right, she questions? He looks away and then slowly he looks up and shakes his head boyishly, not very convincing if you ask me. He leaves.
Mami is crying she feels quite rejected that Nani did not like her food. Her husband scolds her for becoming an accomplice and says stop interfering. Nani tells Manorama that the food really wasn't that bad she just said that to pull out the truth. She continues with that when she gives Lavanya something to do no one in the family will help her. She is to do the task by herself. Understand? She thought she had made that clear to everyone. She leaves.
Kushi says to Payal and Buaji that all the calculations will destroy their minds. She takes the books and puts them in the closet where she finds a radio. She turns it on and they all wind up singing and dancing. She has lightened the mood of the situation. Buaji asks Kushi how long will she make her dance. Then she tells her that what Kushi said was true, tomorrow is a new day! They dance in celebration and Kushi thanks DM!
Its night, Kushi is sitting in the backyard on a bench looking up at the night sky. She sees a shooting star and screams for her sister in excitement! Buaji runs out what's broke? A shooting star! Nobody broke anything. '
Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Their secret longing
ASR and Anjali are sitting poolside and they see a shooting star. He says, "relax Di it's just a shooting star. You don't have to be so excited." "Just shut up," she says. "Come make a wish." She covers his eyes.
Payal and Kushi have their eyes close making a wish.
ASR eyes are still covered by Di but that doesn't matter for he still sees Kushi. She is yelling at him, "You don't want to see my face right? Then be happy because I will go away from you forever. I will go to Lucknow forever!" He gets annoyed he takes Di's hand off his face. "Di, you are not giving me a choice nor do I need to ask for something from someone. I do not believe in such a thing. If a star falls from the sky what can it give me?" He doesn't believe in wishing upon a star! He leaves but his sister has other plans for him. She makes a wish for him; wishing him much happiness and a woman who will come into his life and ease his pained heart forever.
Kushi finishes making her wish. Payal asks her what she wished and she answers nothing special. She then tells her she wished that they all can be together always and have a sweet life as sweet as jalebi! Buaji replies that that is always on her mind sweet jalebi! Kushi asks Payal her wish and she answers it was for their parents happiness and well being always. Always confident Kushi says our wishes will definitely be fulfilled and tomorrow we need a good prosperous day (or we will fall like that star).
Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true….sung by Jiminy Cricket
Anjali and Shyam are in their room. Shyam is dreaming about Kushi and her trying to tell him something before she left for Lucknow. He is upset he didn't listen to her. Anjali sees he is up. She asks why he isn't sleeping and he says he just can't. She wants to get him something to help him but he tells her there is nothing SHE can do to help him. (Only Kushi…keep wishing Shyam). She says, wow, she use to be able to help him in an instant. She rests her head on his shoulder.
Nani is carrying Laxmi and tells her she is worried about the same thing as long as Ms. Kashyup is in this house she won't be able to rest peacefully. Nani hears a door open and Lavanya is sneaking out of her room wearing only her nightie! La hears something and then thanks God it is no one. She is on the move heading towards her man's room! Nani is hidden but knows exactly where she is going. Oh how I wish she gets caught!
Shyam tells Anjali he thinks he has to go to Lucknow and she says you just got home and now you are leaving again. He tells her he will be back in time for their anniversary in a few days. He continues with now his worries are gone and he can sleep.
ASR gets up, he can't sleep. He walks over to the sliding doors entering the pool area where the drapes are blowing from the wind. The wind blows the heavy fabric into him and this reminds him of Kushi's dupatta, not heavy like the fabric of the drapes but light and airy, which always seems to find him caressingly. I am sure that at this moment he wishes he could stop thinking about this woman. Suddenly two arms come up from behind and embrace him. She leans her head on his back; it's Lavanya. Nani has followed and from a distance sees this. ASR asks La what she is doing and why is she not sleeping. He is rather standoffish. I love this scene; it only proves to me that he respects his Nani, home and traditions and that he really does not want Lavanya because any hot blooded man would jump on the opportunity of a woman throwing herself at him. Go, ASR, go! Just love him. Lavanya says she wouldn't sleep well unless she came to say "good night" to him and anyway he is awake. She leans in for a kiss and he just stops her. She tells him don't worry; no one saw her coming here. She leans in again. ASR what are you doing? Nothing! Haha. You're tickling me! He shows her his hands and he says he hasn't even touched her. Maybe not your hands but your feet and how soft they are. He asks her what she is saying he then turns on the light to see Laxmi licking her feet. Lavanya jumps up shooing Laxmi and getting a little hysterical which he frustrating says for her to stop overreacting. "The goat is more dangerous than a ghost and she is Nani's spy." What nonsense he says and that Laxmi probably came here by accident. He is so trusting! He calls for Laxmi to be removed by Jai Prakash and Nani comes in….uh, oh.
I bet you wished you weren't caught in this situation!
