Preeta fell on the floor with a thud,Karan ran and pulled her in his arms and patted her cheeks,

Karan(tearfully) - Preeta...Preeta utho... babydoll utho na...tum mere saath aisa nahi kar skti...utho Preeta....(cries)

Preeta opens her eyes a bit,

Preeta(slowly) - Karan....

Karan - ha...ha babydoll uthi raho... aankhein mat band krna bas!hum abhi hospital chal rahe hai!tum aankhein mat band karna....

He picked her up in his arms,

Karan - Kabir car nikaal jldi!

They ran outside and sat in the car,Tabir sat in front while Karan sat at back holding Preeta,

Preeta - please Karan!

Karan - pagal mat bano Preeta!mai kahi nahi jaaunga!

Meanwhile they reached hospital,Karan picked her and Tabir and he rushed inside the hospital,

Karan(shouting) - doctor....doctor....

Two ward boys came with stretcher,he laid Preeta on that and they started taking her to the OT....

Preeta - meri...aah...meri baat suniye Karan...please jaaiye...mujhe kuch nahi hoga...aapka pehla concert hai...please jaaiye...mere liye Karan....

Karan - have you gone mad?tumhe iss haalat ne chorkar kahi nahi jaa raha mai!

Preeta - aap....aapko meri Kasam hai Karan...jaaiye...mere...mere liye...please...(loses her consciousness)

Doctors take her inside the OT...while Karan and Tabir stand outside,

Karan was standing numb there,Kabir came towards him and kept his hand on his shoulder,Karan hugged him,

Karan(sobbing) - mai...mai mar jaaunga Kabir...mai mar jaaunga...mere jeene ki wajah hai wo...agar usse kuch hogya...to...mai....

Kabir - kuch nahi hoga Karan..kuch nahi hoga...

They break the hug,

Kabir - uski Kasam puri nahi karega?

Karan looked at him,

Karan - tu pagal hai kya?wo to emotional hokar kuch bhi bol rahi thi...par mai usse iss haalat me chorkar kahi nahi jaane wala!

Kabir - Jaa Karan...uske liye gaa...uske liye...

Karan - par....

Kabir - koi par nahi Karan...jaa aur gaa...apni awaaz uss khuda tak pohocha....wo khuda hi tere pyaar ko bachayega!jaa Karan!

Karan looked at him and then at Preeta through the OT door....he remembered her smiling face and left from there with tears.

He drives to the concert area and entered inside,

(Concert Organizer - Co)

Co. - Karan sir kaha the aap?itni der hogyi hai already!jldi chaliye!

Karan looked at him and nodded!He took his guitar and left to the stage!

As he entered everyone started hooting and cheering for him,

He closed his eyes and saw Preeta's smiling face,

Preeta - to bhul jaaiye uss ateet ko!hum naya suru kr skte hai na sab!aap ek baar kosish to kijiye!I guarantee it ki sab acha hoga!sab kuch!

A lone tear escaped his eye,he remembered her words,

Preeta - mere liye Karan!please!aap kehte ho na ki meri khushi ke liye aap kuch bhi kr skte ho!to Please!

Karan(whispers to himself) - for you babydoll!just for you!(with tears)

He sets the mike and takes a deep breath,he turned and saw Preeta signing him good luck,he turned towards the crowd and closed his eyes,

Karan - Uska hoon, usmein hoon
Us-se hoon usi ka rehne de

Her smile,her laugh,her blush,her sight came in front of his eyes,

Karan - Main to pyaasa hoon hai dariya wo
Zariya wo jeene ka mere

Her calling him by his name for the first time flashes his mind,

Karan - Mujhe ghar de, gali de, shehar de
Usi ke naam ke

Screen shows Preeta being treated in the hospital,

Karan - Kadam yeh chalein ya rukein
Ab usi ke vaste

He remembered their marriage,them taking vows,he making her wear mangalsutra and filling Vermillion in her head,

Karan - Dil mujhe de agar dard de uska par
Uski ho wo hansi goonje jo mere ghar

Screen shows Preeta breathing heavily,her heartbeat getting low,while Karan's heart was aching feeling something,

Karan - Aye Khuda, aye Khuda jab bana uska hi bana

Tears were flowing from his eyes constantly,while she was breathing heavily,

Karan - Aye Khuda, aye Khuda jab bana uska hi bana

The concert ended crowd cheering for him,

He exited from there and immediately rushed to the hospital,

He entered and saw Tabir sitting outside OT,

Karan - Pree...Preeta kaisi hai? doctors ne kya kaha?

Kabir - doctors usse treat kar rahe hai Karan!tu himmat rakh!

Karan - par itni der kyu?

Kabir - uski situation critical hai Karan!

Karan closed his eyes and tears made their way down his cheeks,he sat on the chair with a thud,

Mere hisse ki khushi ko, hansi ko
Tu chaahe aadha kar

He stood and saw her being treated through the window,she was surrounded by channels and was lying lifelessly,

Chahe lele tu meri zindagi
Par yeh mujhse vaada kar

He kept his hand on the window and caressed it,

Karan(whispered with tears) - dekho babydoll maine tumhara promise pura kiya!ab uth jaao please....please babydoll!mai mar jaaunga tumhare bina!

Uske ashkon pe, ghamon pe, dukhon pe
Har uske zakhm par

Karan - tumse Saansein judi hai meri!mat jaao mujhe chorkar!nahi jee skta tumhare bina!nahi jee skta!

Haq mera hi rahe har jagah har ghadi
Haan umra bhar

He saw her breathing heavily,his heart ached seeing her condition,

Karan(mind) - please usse bachalo!please!usne mujhe andhero se roshni me laaya hai!mai usse unn andhero me nahi jaane de skta!please bachaalo usse!

Ab faqat ho yehi wo rahe mujhmein hi
Wo juda kehne ko bichde na par kabhi

Karan(mind) - Kasam khaata hu babydoll agar aaj tumhe kuch hogya na...to khatam kardunga khudko!agar tum nahi to mai bhi nahi!

Aye Khuda, aye Khuda jab bana uska hi bana

Karan(mind) - hamari Saansein judi hai!hum jude hai!Preeta ke bagair uska Karan kuch nahi!zinda bhi nahi!

Aye Khuda, aye Khuda jab bana uska hi bana

Doctors came out,he rushed to them,

Karan - doctor...doctor kaisi hai Preeta....wo thik to haina...usse kuch hua to nahi na!aap bolte kyu nahi...

Kabir - unhe bolne to de Karan!

Doc. - Your wife is a fighter Mr Luthra!wo bilkul thik hai!bas ab aap unka proper care kariye!she will recover soon!

Karan closed his eyes and sighed in relief.

Karan - mai usse mil skta hu?

Doc. - ya sure!(left)

Karan ran into the OT and saw her lying with her eyes closed,he went near her and caressed her hair,she opened her eyes slowly,

Preeta - Karan apka concert?(weakly)

Karan broke into tears and hugged her tightly,

Karan - pura kiya maine apna promise babydoll!aaj gaaya mai!sirf tumhare liye!par tum bahot buri ho tumne kaha tha tum whi hogi mujhe sunne mujhe dekhne par tum nahi aayi!
