In the vast Sahara of Nad, a caravan of gypsies has encamped. The head of the gypsy tribe a kind of old man, is giving his blessings to two young hearts, whose hearts are throbbing with a rapture immortal love. He narrates them the tale of true love that blossomed in those very sands hundreds of years ago. Laila and Qais belonged to two different tribes that lived peacefully near an oasis. There father’s were the chiefs of the two tribes. Their beloved children studied in the same school. It was here that the tender hearts of Laila and Qais felt some thing for each other. Laila’s father Amir Sarwar, came to know of this amour and he wanted to nip the blossom in the bud. But meeting each other was irresistble for the young ones, and defying all stalling, they met each other in stealth. Thus, thier love matured with the passage of time. It was not very long when everybody around came to know of their love. Amir Sarwar became furious, and his followers belaboured Qais mercilessly. Amir, Qais father, wanted to factional war, but better sense prevailed with Amir Sarwar, and he decided to move from the place. Laila came to know of the decision, but the tribe had already decamped. She implored with tears and wailings to her companion to carry a message to Qais, but it was of no avail. When Qais came to know that he had been forcibly parted fom his beloved, he followed Amir Sarwars caravan. In the tity of Taif, Laila fell seriously ill, Qais could not find his way to Laila. He changed himself into a beggar and reached Laila under pretext of begging alms. The very sight of Qais restored Laila to health. Qais, whou could not be away from Laila for a moment hovered around her house. People decried ” the beggar” and called him a mad man “Majnu”. Incidentally, the prince of Iraq had come to Taif in those days, and when his eyes feel on Laila, he immediately decided to marry her. He offered priceless jewels, money and comforts which tempted Amir Sarwar and he accepted the offer. What followed is a heart-rending tale which is beyond all words-the intensity and impact of which you can see on the screen alone.
