Now that you’ve checked out I’m dog gone crazy from “Action replayy”, time to check out “Don’t worry about me” from Imran Khan [@1mrankhan], Deepika Padukone [@deepikapadukone] starer “Break Ke Baad”.


Break Ke Baad - Imran Khan, Deepika Padukone

To begin with, this song deals with situation after a break-up. But surprisingly and refreshingly, there’s no sadness in it. No rona-dhona, no drama. Yea, the guy is hurt that it is over but he’s looking forward to the future. Unconventional way of dealing with such a situation in a Bollywood song. Like it. Vishal Dadlani rocks this one.




Lyrics of the song follows -

Don't worry about me, I'll be fine.
I'll make my bed and take my pills on time.
And when I see somebody on the street
I'll make sure I say Hello, I'll say Hello.

Don't worry about me, I'll be good.
And I'll do all the things you say that I should.
And when I see somebody on the street
I'll make sure that I smile.
(though I can't stand them)

They'll never know;
They'll never see;
They'll never get through to me,
get through to me, get through to me.
They'll never know;
They'll never see;
They'll never get through to me,
get through to me, get through to me.


Don't worry about me, I'll be OK.
I'll be the quiet one when there's nothing to say.
Just sitting by himself in the corner
singing this song, thinking of you.

Don't worry about me, I'll be alright.
It's just that (I) haven't slept for 64 nights.
Coz sleep won't come without your arms wrapped around my soul.

They'll never know;
They'll never see;
They'll never get through to me,
get through to me, get through to me.
They'll never know;
They'll never see;
They'll never get through to me,
get through to me, get through to me.


It's not that I got something to hide.
It's just that, just that I got nothing inside.
It feels like, feels like bulb in my ceiling went out,
And I'm stuck in dark without you.

Look, I know I said that I won't even cry.
But, but you're gone so I don't see why
I shouldn't be spending every single day curled up on my floor.
That's my soul.

Yeah I know there'll be times when we'll meet.
Get a cup of tea or maybe pass on the streets.
And every time you look into my eyes,
you'll see I'm living this life.
(just faking it)

They'll never know;
They'll never see;
They'll never get through to me,
get through to me, get through to me.
They'll never know;
They'll never see;
Coz you're the only one, the only one,
the only one who ever knew me.


Lovely, ain't it. Gives you strength to survive the heart-break. :-)

Hi Suhana,

Well, like the guy in the song, I'm trying to be strong and cope with the heartbreak right now. Trying to put up a brave face so that "they'll never get through to me".

I like this song more than the Hindi version of the same - "Mai Zinunga".. Which one do u like more?
Awesome lyrics. Thanks for sharing.
Its beautiful. I love both Deepika and Irfan here.
