Dil Bechara will always be remembered for celebrating the legacy of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput. The tragic romance is treasured for its dialogues. While many dialogues made us cry our hearts out, some also made us laugh. Sushant Singh Rajput as Emmanuel Rajkumar Jr. waxed philosophical about life and death in the film. “Janam kab lena hai aur marna kab hai… hum decide nahi kar sakte, par kaise jeena hai… woh hum decide kar sakte.” Remember it?
Also starring Sanjana Sanghi in her first lead role, Dil Bechara was released posthumously after the sudden demise of Sushant Singh Rajput in 2020. Casting director Mukesh Chhabra made his directorial debut with the 2020 film.
We have compiled a list of some of the dialogues from Dil Bechara that will remind you of Sushant Singh Rajput.
10 dialogues from Sushant Singh Rajput’s last film Dil Bechara
1. We cannot decide when to be born and when to die… but we can decide how to live
Sushant Singh Rajput said this powerful line in the voiceover. After Sushant’s demise, the audience felt even more connected to it. Wasn’t he right?
2. You don’t seem safe, you seem like a serial killer type.
This dialogue is from the first meeting of Manny and Kizie when he asks her to drop him on his bike.
3. I’m a serial killer, you’re a serial kisser…what a pair!
The dialogue comes when Kizie calls SSR’s character a “serial killer” while flirting with him.
4. You are important to my heart. It beats faster whenever you come close.
Kizie, who is battling thyroid cancer and carries an oxygen cylinder with her, utters this line to Manny after she falls in love with him.
5. Today’s artists are like this, they start work and never finish it.
This scene is from the scene where after listening to singer Abhimanyu’s song, Manny asks Kizie the answer to ‘Main Tumhara…’. Manny says this when Kizie tells him that the singer has left the song incomplete.
6. You don’t have to be popular to become a hero. They exist in real life too.
In the doctor’s session, Kizie said that you don’t need to be popular to become a hero, there are heroes in real life too. This came after Manny said that he wants to be like Rajinikanth.
7. Suddenly one day Manny entered my life while dancing. I have never met a more irritating boy than him. And I don’t even want to meet him. He kept on joking about everything, kept on laughing and taught me how to live. And slowly he became the reason for my living. Just like he entered, he exited one day and left me alone again.
It is an emotional scene where Kizie gives her farewell speech to Manny and they both break down in tears.
8. There was a king, there was a queen, both died and the story ended. Every grandmother tells this story. But this story is incomplete. And the king and queen complete it.

While battling with illnesses, Manny and his friend Jagdish Pandey make a Bhojpuri film named ‘Rajnikanth Aavat Hai, Sapne Jagavat Hai’.
Earlier this year, Mukesh Chhabra teased netizens with a tweet that read, “Dil Bechara 2.” Later, Chhabra clarified that he was initially planning to make a second part; however, the director soon realised that he would not be able to touch the film.
In an interview with News18 Showsha, the filmmaker clarified, “I tweeted about it because I was actually planning to make Dil Bechara 2.” Chhabra called Dil Bechara a “special film” because there were a lot of emotions attached to it given the fact that it was Sushant Singh Rajput’s last film.
