Tere Liye

Prem, Raj, Priya, and Deepak were inseparable friends, bound by years of laughter and memories. However, beneath their friendship, unspoken feelings lingered. Raj was deeply in love with Priya and hoped to confess his feelings, believing she felt the same. One evening, Raj finally gathered the courage to tell Priya how he felt. She listened quietly, her eyes full of emotion, and then gently said, "Raj, I care for you deeply, but my heart belongs to someone else." Raj was heartbroken but asked, "Who is it?" Priya hesitated before admitting, "It's Deepak." Deepak, who had no idea of Priya's feelings, was stunned when Raj revealed the truth to him. Prem, ever the peacemaker, stepped in to remind them that love was never meant to break bonds but to strengthen them. In the end, Tere Liye became a story not just about romantic love but about the love that keeps friendships alive through honesty, understanding, and acceptance.

The Fall of Italy

The setting is the islands off the Dalmatian coast of Yugoslavia, during WW II. The islands are controlled by occupying Italian forces, and a resistence movement of Communists is dedicated to sabotaging and ending the occupation. When a wealthy young man joins the resistence, he falls in love with a woman who turns out to be a spy for the Italians. As a result of his liaison and her activity, they are both executed by a Communist comrade - a previous friend. The comrade is dedicated to the hard-line policies of the resistence, until he himself falls in love with the daughter of a bourgeois landowner on the island - a landowner who has collaborated with the Italians. Neither the Italian occupying army (one officer is shown in an attempted rape scene) nor the resistence fighters are stereotyped forces for good or evil, but all are equally subject to the dehumanizing effects of war.

At first, nobody wants to co-operate with him, but he finally finds that the island is being allegedly haunted by the ghost of Josip Broz Tito, Communist leader of former Yugoslavia. For Luka, the mayor, this is the opportunity to turn entire island into Tito-themed amusement park. Tito's WW2 veterans, on the other hand, don't believe in ghosts; for them, the apparition is actually Tito himself, who had returned in order to lead them into a new revolution which would restore Communism.
