Sholay: you should watch it

[eruthros]

I found a new fandom when I was watching yuletide stuff. Well, I found a lot of new fandoms, but this one is important and I must share it with you.

Below, you will find a song from the movie Sholay. The song features Jai and Veeru, two thieves who love each other and run around stealing things for fun. The song is just -- so perfect, it cheers me up when I am sad. I can watch it over and over and over.

The lyrics are unfortunately not included in the dvd I was looking at, which didn't subtitle many of the songs; these are from bollywoodlyrics.com.

Veeru:
We will not break this friendship
I may break my strength, but I will not leave your side

Jai:
We will not break this friendship
I may break my strength, but I will not leave your side

Oh, my victory is your victory, your loss is my loss
Listen, oh my friend

Veeru:
Your pain is my pain, my life is your life
That is how our love is

Jai:
I will even risk my life, for you I will

Veeru:
I will even risk my life, for you I will

Both:
Become enemies with everyone

Veeru:
We will not break this friendship

Jai:
I may break my strength

Both:
But I will not leave your side

[scene with girl]

Veeru:
People see two of us, but
Look, we are not two

Jai:
Oh, that we be separated or angry, oh God I pray
That this may not happen

Veeru:
We will eat and drink together

Jai:
We will die and live together

Veeru:
We will eat and drink together
We will die and eat together

Both:
For our entire lives
We will not break this friendship
I may break my strength, but I will not leave your side



Jai and Veeru love each other! They ride through the countryside together! They are best friends forever! THEY ARE NOT TWO! I love them so much.

I may have *cough* clipped the whole scene to high-quality avi because it makes me so happy, so if you'd also like to have something to cheer you up when you're down, drop me a line at eruthros at livejournal dot com.

PS: the movie has a sad ending. If you're bad at sad endings, and thinking of watching the movie, let me know and I'll spoil you.

PPS: the only thing that made me sad about putting Sholay in the vid was that The Motorcycle Diaries isn't a yuletide fandom, because Sholay and the Motorcycle Diaries would have looked so pretty together.
