All language subtitles for Maharani S04 E01_track3_[eng]

Power...
Unrestrained power.

Did I kill my own people for this?

Dara.

My brother,

Who immersed himself in love

and art.

Would he ever understand

That it takes a heart of stone
to sit on this throne?

I am accused of cruelty

and unrelenting.

But has anyone

ever

tried to understand me?

Has anyone experienced the loneliness

that comes with this throne?

This royal throne...

Don't get fooled by its grandeur.

The one who takes on the crown

is already dead within.

I did what was right

to save the sultanate

and our reign.

Dara had naive dreams.

He would have destroyed the empire.

Art and love

don't run empires,

swords do.

It takes effort.

Dara is no more

but I'm not alive either.

This throne, this sultanate

is a trap

and I

am a prisoner

of my sultanate,

of my throne.

We joined Mr Joshi's alliance
government 4 years ago

because we had faith in

Mr Joshi's competence.

We believed in him.

But now

he does as he pleases.

Mr Joshi has turned into a dictator.

Hence,
the national executive committee

of Bengal People's Front

has decided to withdraw its support

given to the central government.

Hereafter, in the assembly,

all our 13 MPs

will preside over the opposite benches.

Sir...

Thank you very much. Thank you.

Thank you...

Look. Look.

- Why didn't we see this coming?
- Sorry, sir.

I really underestimated them.

Som?

Sir, we were watching him closely

but Manik Da was so secretive that...

What do we have on Manik Da?

Nothing we can use.

What do you mean nothing?

40 years in my political
career has taught me

one thing.

Whoever holds the file, holds the power.

Manik Da is really smart.

Everything from his party,
business

to family is clean.

Clean?

He's a politician who contests
for elections.

He runs a party.

How can he be clean?

We dug up everything we could

but found nothing
that we can use right now.

Sir,

there is a lead and it's genuine.

Manik Da's father-in-law.
Kaushik Sen

He sold a floor of his house
in Chitranjan Park.

The deal was officially registered
for a miniscule sum

and the rest of the amount

was accepted in cash.

This is a black money case then!

Sir, Mr Sen is 88 years old.

He has kidney issues
and undergoes dialysis twice a month.

If something happens to him,

it will backfire on us...

That's not your problem.

Manik Da should've thought better

before withdrawing his support.

I will not allow people walking over me
without repercussions.

Arrest the father-in-law,

By evening.

Okay.

Who's our best chance, Murad?

Only one person, sir.

Rani Bharti.

The Chief Minister of West Bengal

Manik Sen withdrew his support,

Prime Minister Sudhakar Srinivas Joshi

began rallying non-aligned parties

in a bid to save his government.

Political analysts believe
that he must not only gather support,

but also devise a balanced formula
to win over

the regional parties.

Bihar is doing so well.

The planning commission
is expecting a growth rate of

over 5% this year.

Thank you, Muradji.

We are doing our best.

But Truth be told, to help Bihar

progress like Karnataka,
Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu,

we need help from the centre'
which we never got.

Well,

there are grievances on both sides.

Let me get to the point.

If Mr Joshi and Raniji join hands,

a double engine government

can do wonders for Bihar.

What do you propose, Muradji?

Special status for Bihar

and 2 cabinet berths at the centre,
including railways,

and one governor
from your party's quota.

Mr Joshi hasn't made such
a lucrative offer

to any alliance partner to this day.

Well, if he wants to
save his government then,

he has no option but
to give a lucrative offer, Murad ji

All right.

We'll discuss with Raniji
and revert tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Call her in Patna right away
and seal the deal.

- We'll do a conference with PM...
- Madam is not in Patna.

Where is she?

Mumbai for Person of the Year Award.

Excellence Group had signed an MOU
with the Bihar government

to set up a special economic zone
in Saharsa.

Am I right?

For which, Bihar government
allotted 400 acres of land

along with subsidies on water
and electricity.

You were given clearance
from all departments

within two months.

It's been two years since the MOU was
signed, Mr Dutta.

All your company has done
so far is put up a board!

Is this your excellence?

I understand Bihar
governments's concerns

but you should consider
my constraints too.

Setting up a new industry

is no easy feat.

Due to rise in import duty,

our equipment comes
at a higher cost.

Technical feasibilities,

loan, recovery model...

There are many such issues.

Are you aware of the rate of dollar?

It is Rs 53.10

A pound is worth 88

and Euro

is 68.

Oil is priced at 109 dollar per barrel.

The Surge in import duty

has only been applied
on medical equipments.

You got a bank loan for
our project two years ago.

Hope you're not planning
to flee to London.

- Roshni.
- Yes, ma'am.

I'm terminating your contract.

You're making a mistake.

A huge blunder.

No industrialist wants
to come to Bihar.

If Excellence Group leaves Bihar,

your state's economy will collapse.

What do you think?

People in Bihar are still primitives?

Don't be mistaken.

This is the new Bihar

and Rani Bharti is its guardian.

We only welcome friends

not thieves.

The recipient of this award

requires no introduction.

Yes, a simple home maker

suddenly becomes the CM of Bihar.

She gets her husband arrested

and later gets jailed for allegedly
murdering her husband.

After a three year long sentence

she makes a grand come back

and becomes the chief minister
of Bihar again.

Friends, some people
call her illiterate,

some call her a murderer
while some

call her the future prime
minister of India.

So, ladies and gentlemen,

please welcome,
the person of the year winner

Mrs Rani Bharti.

I would like to know

in your decade long career,

what is your greatest achievement?

Khoincha Bank.

Khoincha Bank is
a co-operative bank

for the poor women of Bihar.

You know,

when I started this bank,

everyone laughed at me.

They said Rani Bharti is a fool.

She will leave the women broke!

But I knew

if you give women money

they won't gamble it away,

or splurge it on booze.

The results are out for all to see.

Today 3.3 million women from Bihar

have accounts in Khoincha Bank.

Raniji,

even PM Joshi is looking
for your "Khoincha".

Now that his National Vikas Front's
government is in danger.

We've heard he has made some
lucrative offers too.

Will you be giving your
support as 'Khoincha' to his party?

Truth be told, Delhi should be

Giving Bihar "support"

with a Special State Status.

Despite repeated requests,

Mr Joshi didn't pay heed.

Now that he's in need,

he's willing to accept all
our demands.

He's being nice
because he's desperate.

All promises will be forgotten
once he's out of trouble.

At that point, we'll be sidelined!

Today, from this stage,

I hereby declare,
no matter what happens,

my party won't support the Joshi
government.

Hello, Mr Prime Minister,

your proposal is rejected.

Murad's best option has failed.

Mr Som, what do you suggest?

We do have an option, sir.

But it's an unpleasant one.

I know that.

I'll do whatever it takes
to save our government.

Naveen Kumar is the
Satan of politics.

April 2009, Saharsa.

We have no ties with Naveen Kumar,
a murderer.

Gopalganj, September 2011.

Criminalization of politics
is a huge concern,

PM Joshi.

Naveen Kumar can't be pardoned.

Most importantly,

this article in Today's India.

Bheema Bharti's murderer Naveen Kumar
deserves no sympathy from anyone.

Courtesy, our dear prime minister.

This is what Joshi sir has done.

That's what he said about me.

And yet people continued
to support me

and 7 of my candidates won
the assembly elections.

You see, in Bihar,

my supporters believe I am innocent.

They are eagerly waiting
for my release.

I'm rotting in jail for 9 years.

I've written more than
40 letters to the PM.

Tarkeshwar, a leader from my party
is a member of the assembly,

yet the PM has no time to meet him.

Now that he's in dire need,

he sent the home ministry

to meet a murderer in jail!

Your grievance is justified,
Naveen Kumar.

A political matter was given
a criminal angle.

If I were in your place,
I'd feel the same.

Let's forget the past

and think of the future.

How can we make amends?

As for the future, Mr Som,

I will surely vote in Mr Joshi's favour

- but on one condition.
- Just say the word.

Cabinet berth, governorship?

None of that.

Tell Mr Joshi

if he wants to save his government,

he must topple
Rani Bharti's government.

Mr Naveen,

we're not living in those times

when a single gunshot would lead to
implementing section 356.

I know that.

Take the first step towards
toppling her government

to convince me

that Mr Joshi isn't taking me
for a ride

like many others.

I don't understand.

Come closer.

Maheshwari Commission,

the perfect bird-trap.

Toddy!

Come here.

Come closer.

Your grandpa makes great toddy.

Instead of helping him,

you're making bad local cigarettes!!

You got basic education

so you dare to forget tradition!

- Get him to work for the party.
- Yes, sir.

People are watching.

Come with me.

Don't worry.

Continue making toddy.

We'll get it registered under
small scale business.

Registry means paper work.

Okay?

Hi Kiddo!

What are you wearing?

Meaning?

This is the track suit you sent.

Let me zip it up.

Looks great on me.

That was meant for Roshni didi, brother!

I sent a phone for you.

You send weird gifts from abroad!

There's no gender distinction.

If you roam the streets of
Patna wearing that,

your macho image will go for a toss.

Hey, Surya!

You're the youngest here,
not the wisest.

As for my image,

even if I walk naked on the streets,

people will still bow down to me.

Understood?

I hope you're studying sincerely.

Mom has pinned her hopes on you.

You're her favourite after all.

Why do you always taunt me
about being her favourite son?

Because I have taken after dad!

Kiddo, I better go now.
Mr Mishra is here after a long time.

- Is there a meeting?
- No.

He looks miffed though.

All right, kiddo.
I'll sign off.

Take care and stay warm.

Bye.

What's that you're wearing?

It's a tracksuit.

Surya sent it from abroad.

Look.

Sometimes I feel

you should've studied
abroad instead of Surya.

Then switch our places.

I'm ready to go there

but your favourite
Surya won't come here.

So, I am all you got.

Anyway, what brings you here today?

Nothing much.
I was passing by

so I thought of getting
you some pastries.

Oh wow.
How nice of you!

But Bihar's Chanakya
can't be here only for pastries!

Tell me the actual reason.

Jai,

I've told you many times.

Stay out of government matters.

Understood?

What kind of matters?

Tell me clearly.

Bheema Path.

You're insisting Rishi Agarwal
should get the contract

that too without
any tender or application.

That road is named after my father,
Mishra uncle.

If you float a tender,

bogus companies will apply.

Things like paper work,

budgeting and proposals will follow.

By the time you'll start the work
officially,

I would have finished the job.

People only care about the results,

not the methods.

If people stop following rules,

the system will collapse.

- If Raniji learns of this...
- I'll speak to her.

I'll speak to mom.

You got me pastries.

Hope I can eat these
without official permission!

Have some.

No, thanks. I have diabetes.

Delicious.

You were amazing in Mumbai, Roshni.

BBC, CNN and all international
media have covered us.

It was trending on Twitter,
that too organic!

Thank you, Kaveri aunty.

All praises only for Roshni.
What about me?

You always get praises, madam.

It's Roshni's turn today.

I agree.

Madam, I think

you were too quick to reject
PM Joshi's proposal.

You should've discussed it
with the party.

Joshi's government is doing
a shoddy job for 4 years.

Joining hands with him would
hurt us in the elections.

Forming an alliance wasn't
a compulsion, madam.

We could've offered an
issue-based support from outside.

Madam, if Bihar were given

special status,

it would be a great achievement for us.

Investments worth billions
would follow.

We could create millions of jobs.

It's the era of collation, mom.

We'll have to be a little flexible too.

or we'll get left out.

Roshni,

have you heard Aesop's fable

about an old tiger?

A tiger turns old and feeble.

He couldn't hunt for himself.

But he had a brass bangle.

He'd sit with it

daily by the riverbank.

He'd lie to every animal passing by

that it's a gold bangle
and would be of no use to him

as he'd die soon.

Poor animals would believe him.

When they'd try to get the bangle,

the tiger would pounce and kill them.

Joshi is using the same trick with us.

Kaveri, Joshi destroyed every
regional party

he has joined hands with.

He was planning to break
Manik Da's party in Kolkata.

That's why he withdrew his support.

I'm telling you, Joshi doesn't
have any good intentions.

I agree with my mother.

Mom is perfectly right.

Do you even know what this
discourse is about, Jai?

Discourse!

When I speak to you it feels like
I am talking to a dictionary

You're Hindi has gotten better

but it sounds like a government file.

Regardless, be it any topic
or any discourse,

my mother's decisions
are always right.

Greetings.

Ratanji, I'll come to receive
you at the airport.

No, Bihar needs business.

See you.

Mr Mishra, after my visit to Mumbai,

the phones are ringing off the hook!

Everyone wants to invest in Bihar.

The government should offer

assistance in every way possible.

Please look into it.

Did Jai mention Bheema Path?

The road is being built
in his father's honour.

He has promised to do a good job.

This isn't only about
Bheema Path, Madam.

Jai meddles with every department

and pressurises them
to give contracts

to Rishi Agwarwal's company,
Akshanta group.

To make Bihar investor-friendly,

we have to ensure

decisions aren't taken by one person

but by following government protocols.

I hold the strings of every kite
that flies in the skies of Bihar

but I'm not blinded by power.

The day I feel things
are getting out of hand,

I will show no mercy.

Mom!

What happened, dear?

Roshni, what happened?

Maheshwari Commission's report
clearly shows

chief minister Rani Bharti
was behind the

murder of Governor Govardhan Das
10 years ago.

The commission has examined 423 people.

Govardhan Das' postmortem report,

confessions of some women
from Rani's gang

and Rani's confession made
in presence of

Naveen Kumar, Musafir Baitha
and Prem Kumar in jail shows

Rani Bharti was the mastermind
behind the governor's death.

What steps will the central
government take?

Will Rani Bharti go to jail again?

Look.
Taking into consideration the report,

the central government
has ordered CBI

to file a case against
Rani Bharti immediately.

The law will do its job.

Sir!

Pandey ji, please get up.

At least let me take your full blessings.

That's enough now, get up.

Don't fall at my feet again.

Why?

When I see your head at my feet.

I feel like shooting you in the head.

Thank your stars

that mom gave you a chance to atone.

Or you too would've gotten
a heart attack like others.

Anyway, why did you want to meet
this late at night?

Naveen has joined hands with Joshi.

He will save Joshi's government.

In return, Joshi will topple our...

I mean Rani's government.

And reopening of Maheshwari Commission

was Naveen's idea.

- your source?
- Me!

Somshekhar had come to meet
Naveen unofficially.

Tarkeshwar was present too.

I was there too, hiding.

Listening in on them.

The ministers from
the ministries of culture

can actually influence the policies of

you know trade and..

Will you excuse me for
a minute please?

I'll be with you shortly.

- Kaveri!
- I'm warning you.

Don't mess with Rani Bharti.

Oh, I thought

you're messing with her.

We may have a difference of opinion.

But my party line is my line.

Sure.

We only have the report for now.

Whether the centre takes action

depends on Rani.

Jail doesn't scare Rani Bharti

nor does she spare the
ones who put her there.

If jail doesn't scare her then

she wouldn't come to meet
the PM in Delhi.

Impossible.

What?

You didn't know?

- When?
- Now.

10:30

PM house.

Greetings, Mr Prime Minister.

Welcome, Raniji.

You're a busy man.

Not busy

just lonely.

I am the loneliest man in this country.

You're not lonely, sir.

You have major agencies
working for you

like CBI, CED

and commissions too.
When you get bored,

you trouble others.

If I hadn't troubled you,
you wouldn't have payed me a visit.

- What do you want, sir?
- Same as you.

Development of Bihar.

Me in Delhi, you in Patna.

We will bring transformation to Bihar.

"Transformation!"

CM Bheem Singh Bharti

had approached you for
this transformation.

to demand special status for Bihar.

You were the finance
minister back then.

You took off your shoes
and asked Bheem Singh Bharti

to polish them until

they'd shine like a mirror.

Even I approached you many
times and wrote letters

and requested you.

At the planning commission's meet,
we said our state is poor

and we seek help from the centre.

That's when you said

'Raniji, don't be a messiah!'

You're still stuck in the past.

Politicians should have poor memory.

That's one thing I couldn't learn, sir.

Neither could I be forgetful

nor thick-skinned.

Prime minister, I'm not here

because I'm scared
of the commission's report.

I'm here

to tell you that your deal
with Naveen Kumar

will never succeed.

I am happy in Patna.

I pose no threat to you.

But if you join hands
with my worst enemy

and trouble me,

I'll snatch your throne
from under you.

Rani!

Eat this.

You're acting too smart these days.

Coincidentally,
this pigeon is also named Rani.

She obeys me.

When she doesn't,

I make her starve.

Then she comes begging.

What happened, mom?

How did the meeting go?

Say something.

Roshni, I want that pigeon.

I will feed it next year

in this very house.
