00:06This all actually started with a boy called Ravi.
00:10He wasn't like my usual crowd.
00:12He was, um, streetwise.
00:14I was a bit snobbish.
00:15He drove a car without insurance, and that to me was like, whoa.
00:21You know, I, um, called him my gangster friend.
00:30I can have you floating on cloud nine.
00:31No aviator, my intentions is much greater.
00:35Thanks for that.
00:38See you next week.
01:03I didn't know what to do at first.
01:05I mean, I didn't normally accept requests from boys who I didn't know.
01:09Jab, jab, cross.
01:11Okay, Ravi.
01:12Jab, jab, oh.
01:13Sorry, sorry, sorry, man.
01:15Sorry, wait, I'll be fine.
01:16Ravi, what are you doing?
01:20Alright, Dad.
01:20Yes, man.
01:22You're gone.
01:23Yep.
01:24Oh, gee.
01:26Yeah, I got it.
01:28What's up?
01:32Nothing.
01:33Taking your time.
01:34No, it's taking his time.
01:36Okay.
01:36Yeah.
01:37Yeah?
01:37Let's see the pushes.
01:38Let's go.
01:39That's it.
01:40You got that in you?
01:41Oh, yeah?
01:41Of course, mate.
01:42Let's go.
01:42Yes.
01:46And yeah, like Ravi,
01:49Gagan became another secret I didn't tell my family about.
02:00Gagan was already making a name for himself with his Sikh TV channel.
02:04He seemed respectful, progressive.
02:08I like that.
02:13You know what the truth is?
02:16I mean, we are different when we return to the faith.
02:19If we see others smoking weed or drinking or eating burgers, we want to do it.
02:30If we see other people dating, we want to do it.
02:35And we might start looking at women in the wrong way.
02:41You know, the lust comes in because you're in that environment.
02:47You've put yourself there.
02:50And that's why I say when you look in the mirror, have the courage to stand out.
02:56It will remind you what you chose for yourself at your highest level of consciousness.
03:04Vahe Guruji ka kalsa, Vahe Guruji ki fater.
03:20No, thank you so much.
03:23You're popular.
03:26Is it all right?
03:28I kind of hate everyone looking at me, but still feel compelled to do it.
03:35No, you're a natural.
03:39It's, uh, it's good to meet you in real life.
03:48You know my mate, don't you?
03:51Yeah, we, um, we do karate together.
03:54Sounds fun.
03:56Maybe I'll, uh, come along.
03:58You should.
04:01Gagan and Ravi, they couldn't have been more different.
04:04Really, my son was clever, ambitious.
04:07But Ravi, who's weak, easily led.
04:12Gagan was so kind to him.
04:14So kind.
04:15He, he loved him like, like a brother.
04:19And they were very close.
04:23Until she came along.
04:25He, he!
04:27He, he!
04:29He!
04:29He, he!
04:31He!
04:40Good!
04:41Ready.
04:41Coach.
04:49Good! Good
04:52!ANTE!
04:53Good!
04:56Yeah! Good!
04:58Hit push!
04:59Good!
05:00Good! Good!
05:01Good!
05:03Yeah!
05:05Yeah!
05:27Left?
05:27No, no.
05:29I can take her.
05:33Yeah.
06:10Hey!
06:14Hey!
06:15Hey!
06:16Hey!
06:43Hey!
06:45Hey!
06:45Hey!
06:48Hey!
06:48So he doesn't do boyfriend-girlfriend.
06:50He's not looking for a girlfriend.
06:53He wants a wife.
07:20Hey, you fancy having a drink with your old man?
07:22I'm okay, thank you, Dad.
07:24Come on, have one.
07:25It's just one, I mean it's a bit much, but just a small drink.
07:29I appreciate the gesture, but I said no, okay.
07:33And I don't think you should be doing it either.
07:37What happened to you, Gogi? You used to be fun, you did.
07:40Oh, leave him alone.
07:41Kids are different these days, they want different things.
07:43The question is, what is it that they want?
07:45What do you want?
07:47No, stop.
07:49Who's that?
07:50Some curry.
07:51No, he's not.
07:52He's not a girlfriend, he doesn't have a girlfriend.
07:54No, no, no.
07:55Guys, just Ravi, okay.
07:57Anyway, I've got to go.
08:00Say hi to Ravina.
08:02Don't be late, okay?
08:03Ravina, I love you.
08:07Bye, Gogi.
08:08Bye.
08:09He's so handsome.
08:13I only met Guggan's mum once.
08:16You seemed really keen for me to meet her.
08:19It didn't go too well.
08:24Saskia Gandhi.
08:26I'm Mandil, a friend of Guggan's.
08:29Is he in?
08:29I've got his jacket.
08:30I thought I'd drop it off.
08:32Oh, how did she get his jacket?
08:34If he's not in, I can just wait for him.
08:36Oh, no, no, no, it's fine.
08:37I can give it to him.
08:38Well, that's okay.
08:38I'm sure he won't be long.
08:47He's never mentioned her before.
08:49No.
08:51Do you think he likes her?
08:53Sure.
09:03Have you eaten?
09:04No.
09:04No?
09:04Yes.
09:12I didn't like her.
09:14The minute I saw her, I didn't like her.
09:17I just knew.
09:17You can just tell, can't you?
09:19With some of these girls, you can just tell.
09:22And I knew, from the minute I saw her,
09:26I just didn't trust her.
09:29Yes,
09:30Oh baby, I started following her shoulders song with no own,
09:33it's all for me.
09:37Where all the people shall find her?
09:41Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
09:49Even that person is so true.
09:51I took a year,
09:51the people shall find her in the middle,
09:53the people shall find her in the middle,
09:53He's never white.
09:53Yeah, yeah.
09:55All those girls,
09:56that was just one,
09:57I love you.
10:01People are going to die.
10:07People are going to die.
10:15Mandeo.
10:16Mandeo.
10:17Why are you saying I am?
10:19Mandeo, mom.
10:21Listen.
10:23Please.
10:29I love you.
10:32When he told me he loved me I didn't know what to say.
10:40The truth is I really only saw him as a friend.
10:45There's never anything more than that for me.
10:59Yeah.
11:00I had a great time.
11:03Maybe see you next week.
11:16Mandeo really liked you, mom.
11:18She was up until 2am talking about me, was she?
11:22It wasn't that late.
11:23Yes, it was.
11:25I waited up for you.
11:27She's a good girl, mom.
11:31Come on, Baba.
11:33Do you think that you're the only one she's doing this with?
11:36Going out all hours of the night.
11:38She most definitely is not a good girl.
11:44Who?
11:52She's my...
11:54best friend.
11:55Oh, come on.
11:58Girls and boys cannot be friends.
12:00I've told you this before.
12:02Anyway, I...
12:03I just couldn't accept her in her house.
12:07She's not the right girl for you.
12:10Hm?
12:18Yeah, yeah, so I used to wash his hair when he's in the bath.
12:22Yes, so he's 21.
12:24You know, he used to say to me,
12:27Mom, do you not think that you shouldn't be doing this
12:30because other mums don't do this anymore?
12:32And I said, I don't care.
12:36You'll always be my child.
12:44Watch a minute.
12:45And what's my whole, yo?
12:46Watch a minute.
12:47It's very sick of me.
12:49Oh, my shit.
12:51It brings me society.
13:05It's fantastic.
13:05Look at that!
13:18Everything okay?
13:21What about that?
13:28Gagan's father was murdered in India.
13:32By a close friend, it was shocking.
13:41He was never the same after that.
14:27You okay?
14:28I...
14:31I wish I could have told him how much I loved him.
14:35I needed him.
14:37I feel so...
14:42alone.
14:44You're not alone.
14:45I'm here.
14:49Do you mind if we stay on the phone for a bit?
14:53Yeah.
14:55Of course.
14:56Of course.
14:59Gagan started to rely on me more and more after his dad died.
15:04You know, he was always texting, calling really late into the night.
15:10I saw him as a friend, but he started to become more needy and possessive.
15:23I valued his friendship, and I really, I worried about him, but at times it, at times it felt like
15:37emotional blackmail.
15:50More than once he turned up to bright and out of the blue.
15:54That day I was alone in the house.
15:56I didn't think I was in danger.
15:59That's when it happened.
16:01Oh, uh, hi, I wasn't, I wasn't expecting you.
16:10Just wanted to wish you luck.
16:12It's embarrassing enough as I have to retake.
16:15It was the first time for everyone, even Little Miss Perfect.
16:21They're beautiful.
16:23Thing is, uh, sounds lame.
16:27I know one of my car lights is busted.
16:30Bit of a drag to drive all the way back now on the motorway.
16:34Oh, uh, it's just that I'm, I'm by myself here.
16:39I promised I won't get in your way, or bother you.
16:44Um...
16:45It's not a problem, is it?
16:48No.
16:49No, come in.
17:01I can't see up chatting, you know that, right?
17:07You can, uh, hang out in here.
17:09I'll be upstairs.
17:10Can't you just stay for a bit?
17:14Please?
17:17Please?
17:19You know I can't go again.
17:22Uh,
17:24I'll be upstairs, okay?
17:26I need to study for my exam tomorrow.
17:50I need to study for my exam tomorrow.
17:53What?
17:55You know what?
17:56You know what?
18:00I need to concentrate.
18:03The sofa's doing my back in.
18:09I'm fine.
18:11You can have it.
18:13What?
18:14My bed.
18:18Where are you going?
18:21Down to this.
18:23You sleep.
18:24Or have I still met?
18:55What now?
18:59I can't take your bed for God's sake.
19:03You're the one taking an exam tomorrow.
19:07Go back up there, okay?
19:08I'm shattered.
19:10I know.
19:22I can't do it.
19:23I can't do it.
19:39I can do it.
19:44I can't do it.
19:45Right now.
20:16Right now.
20:45Right now.
21:15Right now.
21:18Right now.
21:20Right now.

25:22Right now.
25:23Right now.
25:24Right now.
25:25Right now.
25:26Right now.
25:41Right now.
25:44Right now.
25:45You know when you've been caught Guggan did this, you know, I was very upset because
25:52you're only hearing one side of the story.
25:56For six months, she didn't say anything publicly, nothing.
26:02And I knew she'd say whatever she has to say to make her story stronger.
26:06Guggan did this, Guggan did that.
26:07But for six months you don't say anything publicly and your brother is a police officer.
26:14Why wouldn't you go to your brother and say,
26:16you see this guy on TV who's pretending to be really pure?
26:20This is what he did to me.
26:22She only said what she said when it was useful to her.
26:26Because the fact is, they were very close.
26:30They spent a lot of time with each other,
26:32evenings, phone calls throughout the night.
26:36You know she let him stay at her house.
26:40Why?
26:48Why?
27:13Why?
27:18Why?
27:19Why?
27:20Why?
27:20of any boys ever.
27:23She wasn't interested in sex.
27:26Following the incident, she just seemed angry.
27:32She always had a very carefree attitude,
27:35and this had gone, and she just seemed burdened
27:39and just quite withdrawn with all this load
27:42that she just couldn't shift.
27:50Look, don't pick up. What's the problem?
27:54He'll give up eventually.
27:58That's too many times. He can't be calling me that many times.
28:01Mundil said that he was a lovely guy,
28:03but she was being hassled by him.
28:06He told her that he loved her.
28:08He proposed marriage to her.
28:13He was depressed.
28:15She didn't want to cut off contact
28:16because she was scared that he might harm himself.
28:22Look at how many times he's texted me.
28:23You should block him.
28:25I can't.
28:25Yeah, I can't.
28:29I don't know, that's not right.
28:31His phone calls caused her stress
28:33and would create flashbacks.
28:38He, well, after August,
28:40he threatened to commit suicides
28:42unless she agreed to meet him.
28:52I help you, I help you.
29:02And I'll kill her.
29:07I love you.
29:09I love you.
29:17I love you.

32:53we need to make him realize how important it is for a bandar to respect a woman
32:56hmm
32:57okay when you choose what gogan has chosen

34:52yes
34:52can you hear me
35:04you know
35:06you know
35:10તે મેરે કને પાદે ઓ ડંડીયા ઓ બુલેશા અસાયારી મનાણ તે પામે લોગે ઓણે પંડીયા
35:43મ૫લે તરાિંં ઔએાદઇઉા ટેલે ઓણા
35:46like that. Where there is greed, there is death. Where there is forgiveness, there is
35:58God himself. We cannot embrace Vaheguru's forgiveness if we cling to past wounds. Forgiveness
36:08releases us from the burden of hate. Forgiveness is not a reward. It is given, gifted, whether
36:22someone has deserved it or not. Forgiveness isn't a sign of weakness. To forgive takes
36:36courage. Let me be you for a minute. I've never told anyone this before, but, um, there
36:45was this weird thing that happened. You know, Gogs kept getting these messages from some girl
36:50who loved his videos, and, uh, his responses were kind of lame. We just get, like, just
37:02frozen. I was such a good-looking guy, man. Like, he got so awkward about women he liked
37:08in that way. I just... I just really wanted to help him.
37:16Okay, Rita. Hey.
37:56What the fuck, Jazz? What?
37:58That was too much.
37:59That was too much.
37:59Bro, you want to meet in real life, right? This internet chat's not real.
38:04I'm not looking today, okay?
38:10Gogs. He got so mad at me after that, and, um, and then later, you know, after everything
38:19that happened, uh, I realised that maybe that girl wasn't real. I have a feeling it was Robbie.
38:29He was pretending to be that girl. He was trying to trick Gog and he was, he was deliberately
38:34trying to get Gog and in trouble.
38:54Hi, this is Gog and sorry I can't take your call right now.
38:57Now please leave a message after the tone. Waheguruji Gakalba, Waheguruji Hibate.
39:03Gunkan, bro, how long are you going to keep this up for? Call me back now!
39:34I'll catch you guys up in a bit.
39:45What is that?
39:47You definitely haven't heard from him.
39:52You sure? I'd hate to think what would happen if-
39:55No, nothing. Romance. My texts, my food.
40:00You know, I would've told you if I had. I'd tell you everything.
40:09It's just...
40:15There's something you should know.
40:18What?
40:20You're not. You're not. You're not gonna like it.
40:23Tell me.
40:29Sonny's heard rumours that Gog has been inappropriate.
40:36With all the girls.
40:41Like it was with you.
40:48Of course my son wasn't harassing and bothering lots of girls.
40:52Where were these other girls? Tell me, where were they?
40:54Not one girl came forward. Not one.
40:56There was no me too, me too, me too.
40:58Before or after.
41:00And the police, they checked out the story.
41:03Nothing.
41:04They made it all up.
41:06She made it all up.
41:07It's a bunch of lies.
41:08That's, what it is...
41:10It's a bunch of lies.
42:23Yeah.
42:27Are you sure, yeah?
42:37Yeah, sure.
