All language subtitles for Pratidwandi Aka The Adversary (Satyajit Ray, 1972) Dvdrip - Cd2 Allzine Esp Srt-eng

It is all your imagination. When...

...it comes to actually doing it
you will not be able to do anything.

You feel that way? - There
are two types of human beings.

Thinkers who only think.

Then there are the
doers who can only do.

I'm the second type. I'm not
into thinking and all that.

I'll do what has to be done.

You will only think about
that which you'll not do.

Siddartha!

At the moment I'm thinking where
to eat. That too from your money.

Leave that to me, brother.

Hey, what are you doing?

The growth of my moustache is uneven.

I'm doing a little makeup to hide that.

Both of you are having fun.

Only these few months, brother.

Then we will cease to be students.

You think that he won't come?
- No chance at all.

He has fallen deeply in love.

Otherwise why go to his cousin
sister's house seven days a week?

Is he proceeding as per your house?

His cousin has two friends.

Siben has an eye on one of them.

Must be Gayatri. That girl has nothing in her.

She has nothing.

Do you serve monkey's brain here?
- No we don't serve monkey brains here.

You get that in Hong Kong.

If you try something strange and
unique, the bill will be high.

Will mixed fried rice be okay with you?
- Yes, order that.

Then half a plate mixed fried rice.

Do you have egg foo yoong?

Yes we serve egg foo yoong.
- Good.

But first whisky and soda.
- There are two kind of whisky.

Do you have Aristocrat?
- Yes. - OK. That will do.

Oh! You're a teetotaler, aren't you?
Or have you just started?

Not yet but I think I'll start today.

Don't think a lot, otherwise
everything will get spoiled.

Where did you learn to drink alcohol?

What is there to learn?
It is hereditary.

Does your father drink?
- Of course.

Not the medical dosage but a full dose.

Why do you think that all
doctors are like Morarji Desai?

Not so. But your father.

This is a silly stupid notion
of all of you.

Inside every human being there
are ten contradictory characters.

That's true, otherwise how
can you be good at studies too?

That's fate.

Listen, if you have to fire the gun then...

...go ahead and have it. Cheers!

Are you in a hurry to get back home?
- Why?

Then I shall take you someplace.

Where?
- You'll see when you get there.

It is not what you're thinking.

Looking at you one can sense
that you're thinking something.

What is it? About a job?
- Hell! No.

Can one think about a job always?

Do we get birds in New Market?
- Birds?

You mean chickens.
- No, chicken you can get in any market.

What bird?
- I don't remember the name.

But I can recognise its call
if I hear it.

Can you recognise the call in this chorus?

Listen, what bird are you looking for?

What?
- What bird are you looking for?

Tell him. - I don't know the
name but I recognise the call.

Talking bird?
- No, not a talking bird.

Not a talking bird but it sings very well.

Whistle the tune for him.

What's the matter?
- This is the place.

Come.

Do we have to go upstairs? - Yes, of
course there is nothing downstairs.

Adina! Let's drop it.
- Why?

I feel uncomfortable about the whole thing.

Why are you behaving childishly?

I give you my word you'll not regret it.

Now come along.

Can I come in?
- No, you can't.

Come.

You can call her my friend and...

...also call her my teacher.

A very private tutor, aren't you?

Sit down. Why are you standing?

Sit down. Make yourself at home.

Today was hard work.

An 80 year old man. Refuses to die.

If you do the nursing then why
would anybody want to die?

What do you say?

I'll have some water.

Can't you get it yourself?

Get it dear. I've walked a lot.

Will you also have some?

Did you see her hair? Priceless.

I've never seen your friend before.

He has just come from Patna.

Why is he so quiet?

He is terrified at seeing
the condition of Calcutta.

That's why I told him to come along.

You have to give me five minutes.
I need to take a shower.

It's so hot.

If it becomes five and half
then it will be a problem.

You're smoking all alone.
Give me one too.

She wants a cigarette.
I'm totally out.

Won't you light
the cigarette for me?

Manners. Manners.

Thank you.

I'll be back soon.

My friend is losing patience.

I think he doesn't like me at all.

Nonsense.

His hunger is reflecting on his face.

Well brother, she is all yours.

You told me this is not like that.

Whatever you're thinking this is
not... - Whatever I'm thinking is right.

Nobody comes here to think.

Disgusting!

You had some alcohol. Did
you feel bad after that?

This is also like that.
Initially it may be sour.

Then after that...
- Listen, come here.

What happened?
- Come here for a moment.

I'm not able to detach the hook.

I'll be back.

Ready, steady, go.

You play now.
- You wait.

Hey, Siddartha!

Hey, Siddartha!

Hey, Siddartha!

Hey Mister.

This side.

Will you come and listen to me?

What's the matter?

Can you repair a fuse?
- Fuse?

All the lights in the house have gone off.

There is nobody at home.
I'm feeling very scared.

I can give it a try.
- Please come in.

My papa is not here and
the servant has also gone out.

Where is the main?
- There, please come with me.

I don't have a torch or candle at home.

I mean... There, the middle one.

I brought the fuse wire. I
thought that I'll try it myself.

Then I felt nervous.

Give me the wire.

Hold the match light for me.

My hands and feet went cold in fear.

That's when I got
desperate and called to you.

Oh, sorry!

Thank god!
- My hands.

You want to wash your hands, come.

When I went to light the stove...

Sit down.

Was this necessary?
- Why not?

Do you recognize me?

At first I didn't.

We met in your cousin's place.

Oh yes, Aruna. Now I remember.

We study together. I'm Keya
Mukherjee. - Siddartha Choudhury.

I've seen you pass along
this road a lot of times.

You put on a serious face
gazing at the road while walking.

How long have you been in this area?

Around one and half years.
We were in Delhi before.

Papa got transferred here.

It was a very odd way that I called you.

My mind was confused and afraid.

Today the servant
chose to go to the cinema.

Now I'll take leave.

Don't misunderstand me, please.

Not at all. Why do you unnecessarily...

Come some other day.

Since you pass by here
just drop in any day.

Okay. - If you come tomorrow
evening then I'll serve you tea.

and something to go along with that also.
- Let me see. If I can, I'll come.

Okay, I'll take leave.

Is that Monu? Have you come home?

Interview.

When will all this end? They have
brought disrepute to my daughter.

This must be what
enemies have done to us.

It is better I die than live like this.

Really, I don't like this at all.

I went to your boss's house today.

I went to your boss's house today.

I heard.
- Don't you believe it?

Hey Topu, don't you believe it?

Yes.

I told him that she'll not work any
more since she's feeling the strain.

I told him that every day
it is 8 to 9 when she returns...

...and she is not the
type who can express herself.

It is too much for her. Some
day she might have a breakdown...

...hence it is better that she leaves now.

He also agreed to that. He said if
that's the decision then he has...

...nothing to say about it. He said,
she's smart, hardworking.

He praised you a lot.

Don't you believe me?
- No.

Even if it is true, still I'm
not going to leave the job.

No one can force me to do that.

I will tell that to him myself tomorrow.

If he behaves badly with you,
still you'll not leave the job?

We'll see about that when he does.

His wife came and said so many
things. - She will. She is a mental case.

What about mother? - What about her?

Is it that her daughter
is earning disrepute?

Is that nothing to you?
Nothing at all?

Brother, how would it be
if I get into modeling?

Modeling?

This modeling and you'll do it?

This is a good profession.
They pay you well.

These days quite a lot
of people are doing it.

Suppose they ask you to
wear some atrocious outfit?

Atrocious? What do you mean? - I
mean as good as not wearing anything.

What's wrong in that?
My figure is so bad?

Brother. Come to the terrace.

Terrace?
- Come.

What's the matter? - Put on
the light. - Light? - Put in on.

I'm learning dancing.
- When?

In the evening, after work.

You've changed.

Everyone changes.
You've also changed.

Are you going somewhere?
- I want to.

Where?
- Out of town.

Out of town, means?
- Out of town. - Out of town?

Out of town.

There's a problem getting
a proper reply from you.

Can you give me ten rupees?

I seem to have lost my purse.
- Why ask me for money?

Ask the one who is earning.

She doesn't give. A miser.
I asked her a few times before too.

Can I know where you're going?

I told you. To the village.

Why are you asking?

Do you have any interest in this?
- I may have.

After all, you're my brother.

It would have been helpful
had I got the money.

If I had the money then I
would've repaired my watch.

Care for a cigarette?

I don't smoke.

Have you decided that
you'll not take the exams?

Suddenly?
- I was thinking about your future.

You don't have to think about my future.

Are you into the revolution?

Whatever, I will not announce it to you.

Do you know?

You may be killed by a police bullet.

What do you think?

Brother, come here and see.
- What is it? - Come and see.

In your childhood you...

...used to see chickens being killed.

What is proved by that? Chicken
meat has always been my favorite.

What next?
- I don't know.

Then?

In the olden days do you
know how the public was?

When the widows were burnt alive...

... so many people watched the fun.

In the times of the French revolution
when the aristocrats were caught and...

...beheaded in the guillotine
many people stood and watched.

They placed the head below and...

...then released the thing
from the top. That's all.

You!

Hey, are you unwell?

No. I'm well

Why are you saying you're well?

What time is it?

Why do you ask?

What time will it be?

It will be ten. The
radio stopped just now.

How can your head be all right?

You walk a lot in the
sun and then get sick.

How are you? - Today I'm well. -
What do you mean by 'today I'm well'?

Yesterday I had a sudden fever.

What? - Yes, that's why I
couldn't come yesterday.

Oh, I had invited
you yesterday, didn't I?

My friend suddenly landed yesterday
I went to see a movie with her.

Lucky that you didn't come.

What movie? - Useless. Elvis
Presley. He is her favorite.

Will you have some tea?

Did the fuse burst again?
- What?

Did the fuse burst again?
- No.

How funny it was that day!
- Yes, more like fiction.

It's of course as you said.

There is something wrong with you.
- No. You can tell me if you are sick.

I know medicine too.
- What? Are you a doctor?

I was almost one and
then I didn't. - Meaning?

I studied for two years
and then dropped out. - Why?

My father died and then...

My father has come it seems.

Papa, my friend
Siddartha Choudhury. Papa. Aunt.

Do you have some
medicine for a headache?

Let me see. - I don't
need anything, dear. - Why?

All the way you were complaining
of a headache and now you say this.

It's a like headache.
- It won't do you any harm.

Sit down.

Do you study with Kuku?
- No.

Whose procession was
it today? Which party?

Do you know?
- I don't know?

We were stranded in
one place for an hour.

We just couldn't move.
- Where was it?

Where was it? Tell me.

Kyd street.
- No, not Kyd street.

Then why do you ask me? You know
I don't have any road sense.

I had it somewhere and
it took me time to find it.

Such a big tablet. I can't swallow it.

It will not go down my throat at all.

What tablet, let me see.
- Saridon.

Have this.

The mechanism of swallowing
or dignitation as we call it...

...is a complicated but a
very interesting process.

Well, it really starts with the
action of... - Have you swallowed it?

What are you doing? Studying?
- No.

Have you finished your studies?
- Yes.

Are you employed?
- No, But I will be soon.

Why are the young men in
this condition these days?

Where are they off to?
What do they want?

Frustration starts at
a young age for them.

There is an age for frustration.
Once they work hard in life...

...and when they don't get the desired
results then frustration starts.

You're all still students.
It is madness.

Why is this happening?

Where is all this unrest leading to?

Papa, I'm going out.
- Where? - Just like that.

Will you take the car?
- No, I'll go by the bus. Come.

Papa talks a lot.

At that age all of us might
talk like that. You don't know.

I hope not. I feel bad about it.

What is the meaning in seeing
the darker side of everything?

I like this a lot. In the car
you feel very closed off.

Have you used it?

How wonderful it is.
- Have you seen that?

No, I told you that
I've seen nothing.

Then I'll take you there.
- How?

One of my friends works there.
I'll tell him.

I brought you here and see
how much you've got to spend.

I'm not so poor.

Let me get a job and I'll
give you a better treat.

Is it a job in Calcutta?

One is in Calcutta and the
interview is on Tuesday.

The other one is almost ready. I
can take it but I don't want to.

Let us see how many
years we are in Calcutta.

Is your father's job a transferable one?

Yes, Income Tax.

The one you addressed as aunty is she
your real aunty? - My mother's sister.

She has nothing in
common with my mother.

She doesn't appear like her sister at all.

Your mother is not alive?

No, she died when I was 7 years old.

It would've been great
if you'd become a doctor.

Will you study medicine?
- Me? Oh no!

You have to cut and
dissect dead bodies.

That has to be done, of course.
- Tell me why?

You can know a lot. Like bones,
flesh, nerves, arteries.

From any dead body?

Because all of them are basically
the same unless it is abnormal.

The gentleman sitting there...

...the one with the black suit.

Are he and I basically the same?

You are more or less the same but
there is a little difference...

...in the fact that you're
a woman and he is a man.

That woman, who is sitting
with her back to us. She?

More or less the same but she
has something more than you.

Fat!

Even if it is the same there
is a lot of difference.

They can't be the same.

That can never be. The difference
in condition...

...and then there is education,
temperament...

...then there is appearance too.

How much difference there
is in the eyes themselves.

You see some eyes and you feel
that he is a good person.

Of course, but it does mean
that he is good since you...

...feel that he seems
to be a good man.

There could be a mistake.

It is better that there
is no mistake.

Tomorrow is the interview.
- I know.

You will surely get this job.
- I hope so.

If you don't get it, will
you go outside Calcutta?

I don't feel like it but...

If you go away then I will
also not stay here.

Where will you go?
- Delhi.

I will stay there to do my studies.

I'll stay in a friend's place.

And your father?
- He will stay here.

He is getting married to the aunt.

Let's go.

At times I think that
I should accept her

Earlier I called her aunty. Now
I'll have to call her mama.

But my grief for my mother
comes and stops me.

It is fortunate the fuse went off that day.

Will you write letters? - You
write to me first. - Naturally.

If you write then I'll surely reply.

Will you stop meeting me?
I may have to stay away...

...for a long time. - Now I think
I'll keep meeting you. But...

Mama, I'm leaving.
- Wait a moment, son.

Why do you do these things?
You know it's no use.

Brother.
- There is nothing wrong in it. Son.

You will surely get the job.
Just like I got one.

Do well and see to it that
you don't lose your temper.

Siddartha Choudhury.

Can I ask you something, brother?
- Tell me.

Has the selection already been
made internally?

What can I say about it?

No I mean that... You tell
us what you know.

What's your number?
- 71 - Three times is 213.

It will be three hours from now
when your chance will come.

In the beginning it will be for
5 minutes. Then it will keep...

...decreasing to 1 or 1.5
minutes. That's how it is.

Brother, the vacancy is for
four and see how many people...

...they have called for the interview.

Chanchal Mukherjee.

His job is here for sure.
- How tall is he?

Say around 6 feet.

I'm five feet six and he
is taller than me by 6 inches.

Why do you worry? They might
prefer only shorter ones.

What's the time?
- It's ten past ten.

Brother, listen. - Did you call me?
- Yes, what questions did they ask?

It's the same. - If you tell us
then it might be useful to us.

A little of history, a little
of geography and some politics.

What were the questions?
- Where is Bonn?

What did you say?
- The capital of Germany.

Don't make so much noise. The
sir has said that if there...

...is so much noise then the
interview shall be stopped.

His master's voice.
- Yes, something like that.

It's alright but very strange.

Biphul Chatterjee.

They should've made some
arrangement for sitting...

...since there are so many people.
- That's true. Out of...

...the two fans one is not working.
- Like this if we...

...have to work for hour after
hour then we will be finished.

Mihir Chakravorty.

What happened?
- What happened?

Give him some fresh air.

Get some water.
- Where is a glass?

What happened? Has someone fainted?

Yes, a person just now
fell down unconscious.

Move. Let him lie down.

Take him to that side.

When I saw that person I
felt that he was sick.

Shall I go and meet the bosses?
- What?

They have called so many
people for an interview...

...and they have the responsibility
to make some...

...seating arrangements for all of us.

You can go and meet the bosses
but I don't think...

...that it will be of any use.
- We are not doing anything illegal.

We are only asking for a few chairs.

Will anyone come with me?
- Should I? Okay come.

Will you all come?
- Come, let's go.

Where are you going without
permission? - It's an emergency.

What's the matter? - If you could
provide some chairs...

...outside. There is no place
to sit outside and half the...

...people who have come are
standing from morning.

If there is no place to sit
can't everyone adjust and sit?

It is not possible to provide
75 chairs at the same time.

The fact is that it is very hot
today and one of the two...

...fans is also not working at all.
One person just fainted.

If he fainted then he shouldn't
have applied with such a...

...weak constitution.

In this job he will have to
work much harder than this.

Working hard on the job is
different but if in an interview...

...you don't even get
a chair to sit in, then...

What is your name? What
is your position?

I didn't come to talk about me.
- Then go outside and wait.

If there is no place to sit then
stand and wait. You come...

...in only when your
name is called.

The more problems you create
the more the delay. Go now.

Why do you let all these
useless people come in?

Sir, I told them not to.
They came in by force.

Came in by force. Go outside
and stand guard.

Do you want to sit? - You sit down
or else you might also faint.

Soumitra Bannerjee.

In many animals, as in all
vertebrae's, the general form...

...of the body is maintained
by means of the skeleton.

The skeleton consists of a series
of bones supplemented...

...in certain regions by
pieces of cartilage.

A striking characteristic
of bone is its hardness.

The skeleton persists after death
for a variable length of...

...time after the rest of the
body has disintegrated.

Listen. The interviews will be
suspended for lunch for half...

...an hour and after half an hour...

...your names will be called once again.

Where are you going?

What do you think? - What's
the matter? - Are we animals?

What's the matter? - Are we
servants or something like that?

You get out.
- What right do you have...

...to behave like this with us.
- Chatterjee!

I want an answer.

Get out.

Nonsense, what's this?

Get out of here.

I will, but before that...

Today I had to leave behind a lot of
people whom I've known for a long time.

But the most surprising thing is
that I remember you the most today.

I've know you only for such a short time.

The place Balurghat is more or
less the way I imagined it.

For the time being I'm in a hotel.

But when I say hotel it is not what
you normally would understand.

Till I get a house I'll be staying here.

When I shift to the house I will
send the address to you.

I don't think that I'll be able
to stay here in comfort...

...but this discomfort is nothing
compared to your discomfort.

But whatever discomfort I have will
vanish when I get your letter.

Today I'm very tired and
will not write much.

I'll tell you about an incident
and end the letter.

Can I get some tea?
- Yes.
