Plot
Dil Ne Jise Apna Kahaa begins with Rishabh (Salman Khan) and Pari (Preity Zinta) who are deeply in love. He is a wealthy young man, working in an advertising agency and she is a hardworking, dedicated doctor. They marry and soon Pari is pregnant. Pari has a dream to create a hospital for children known as Parilok (fairyland). Tragically, she is involved in an accident and dies in hospital. Pari's last wish was to donate her heart to her patient Dhani (Bhumika Chawla). Rishabh is devastated and opposes the plan to donate the heart; he goes ahead with Pari's last request: the creation of Parilok.
Dhani is cured, much to the joy of her family and her grandmother (Helen). Rishabh has gone into depression but soon comes across Pari's project to build Parilok. He begins to develop the project with the aided by his brother in law RT and his peers. Soon enough Rishabh and Dhani come across each other now that she works in his agency, and she feels an instant attraction to him. Rishabh becomes disgruntled and ignores her advances as he is still very much in love with Pari. By the time the early concepts for the Parilok hospital come in, Rishabh snaps at Dhani after she disapproves of the designs of the hospital. RT tries to get through with Rishabh’s miserableness and questions why he snapped at Dhani. RT explaims Rishabh’s bitterness to Dhani and tells her that Pari had donated her heart to her. Rishabh does not know that Pari's heart was given to Dhani but soon he realizes that. Rishabh feels that he’s always responsible for someone’s death. Pari’s especially. His sister tells him that god must have given him the chance to love Pari again through Dhani. She gives him two choices: either to accept Dhani through Pari’s heart, or let her die. Rishabh agrees to accept this fate. While she is in the hospital, with doctors struggling to restart her broken heart, he falls in love with her. He tells her that he loves her, and if she loves him, she will pull through. She does, and the two get together.
