Hand Pattern in Indian Video

I recently saw in Indian music video where the singer had an unusual
pattern on her hands. My Hindi is extremely limited and the only
word I understood was the word for "life", but from what I could
tell, the singer represented fate. She had the lines of her palms
hennaed, so they looked alot like maps for palm-readers. Very
interesting look, and very different from traditional patterns.

Aside from the henna, I found the video itself interesting. If I
understood it correctly, it depicted two versions of the life of a
young woman. One was where she caught a boat and one was where she
missed it. Both versions of the subsequent events were shown - one
timeline in black & white, the other in color. Eventually both time-
lines ended up at the same place and the two versions of her self
merged together. Fate rules. Wish I could understand the words!
