Saawariya

I saw this movie a while back around graduation time with Liz. My grandmother calls it the movie about the idiot (Ranbir Kapoor’s character) and the vagabond (Salman Khan’s character). I thought it was interesting. Based on Fyodor Dostoevsky’s “White Nights.”

A young man strikes up a friendship with a girl who is waiting for the one she loves. His adoptive mother tells him the following:

“If that girl is meant for you, then nothing on Earth can keep her from you. And if she isn’t meant for you, then nothing on Earth can bring her to you. The decision isn’t in your hands; it’s in God’s. Now we have to see how God decides to place His cross. This way or that way.” Lilipop
