“Hearts are never separated by borders. Come, let’s create a vision much broader.”
In response to Gupta’s apology for waiting “69 long years” to reach out, Khan says, “You do not need to be sorry for sins not yours.”
Just like Gupta explored the commonalities between two girls separated by a border, Khan points out more similarities between the two in hopes of creating a ‘broader’ picture — one of a shared sense of humanity, despite the ongoing political animosity.
“And yes, I’m a girl — a human just like you, whose heart dances when her mother kisses her goodnight… whose favourite movie is the one with a happy ending, who is scared of hatred still pending.”
