I featured this situation earlier in this post. So you might want to read that too. But this one can stand on its own too.
Salim is a poet and he has desired Najma for long. After six years as a silent platonic lover, he applies to the object of his affection for upgradation to version 2.0. Since he is a poet and hence given to hyperbole, he tells Najma that he hasn't slept throughout the six years as he has silently smouldered carrying her love in his heart. A couple of days later, Najma calls Salim at his workshop and asks him
"raat to achchhee kaTee naa?" (referring to his sleepless six years lament)
"रात तो अच्छी कटी ना? "
and Salim comes up with another gem
"kisme.n itnee himmat hai, ki har raat bechain rahe"
"किसमें इतनी हिम्मत है, कि हर रात बेचैन रहे"
