'A DDR Release'

There is one god.
His name is truth.

He is the Creator.

He fears none, He is without hate.

He never dies. He is beyond
the cycle of births and death.

He is self-illuminated.

He is realized by the
kindness of the True Guru.

He was True in the beginning.

He was True when the ages
commenced and has ever been True.

He is also True now.

"Seek His refuge and find the shore."

"You won't be taking anything along."

"You won't be taking anything along."

"You will be leaving everything
behind in this world."

"I am in awe of him."

"My lord is unique and incomparable."

"I am in awe of him."

Bani!

Bani..

Where are you going with this bag'?

No one can leave this house with
even soil without your permission.

So what can I take with me?

From where did you
learn to say such things?

Keeping quiet didn't
help me either, mother.

Give me your blessings.

You will get my blessings.

But first,
tell me, where are you going?

I got transferred.

Jainti Majri.

It's close to Chandigarh.

You didn't tell me.

Since a long time,
no one has asked me anything either.

And then..

You don't ask, you just tell.

Bye.

a pauper flourish."

Where's the school?

Straight ahead. - Thank you.

Is he the new teacher?

Now one more person to deliver
letters to in our village.

I found it! I found it!

Snake's scooter was found!

If you are joining under
me you should know that no means no.

I don't take leaves.

And I don't let anyone
go without a leave.

Amazing. Very good, sir.

Kids, go back to your class.
- Okay, sir.

I too am just like you.

I am even happy to
be in school on a Sunday.

I will be coming to school on Sundays.

You see if you can make arrangements.

Let's forget about this.

I have arranged for your
stay at Subedar's house.

Including the electricity charges
around 2500.. - Bhullar sir..

How many states are
there in India now?

You are acting funny now, Neetu madam.

You have the Google Auntie with you.
Ask her.

Madam, there are 29 states
and 7 union territories.

Get going now. - Okay.

It was not right for
you to be the Google Uncle.

Sir, when will you be taking
your share of the stock today?

Before the midday meal or after it?

What stocks?

Go and do your job.

Go and cook.

Hello, new sir. - Hello, madam.

Go on. Bye.

Sir, please tell me,
which class will I be teaching today?

Don't bother, sir.
It's your first day. No classes today.

You will be teaching
the whole year around.

You should go and rest.

Get out of the gate,
go left and ask for Subedar's house.

But before that.

One selfie is a must for the Facebook.

Status: Feeling delightful
with new colleague.

Smile please.

Rs. 50.70, Nathu Bhanoo.

Rs. 5, Charna flower-man.

Rs. 16, Karmi..

Yes, sir. What do you want'?

Just your sweet smile
and half a minute of your time.

Sure, of course.

You are a sweet talker.

Do you work in the sugar mill?

Almighty has a sugar
mill planted on my tongue.

How are you, buddy?

Make sure you come
back on time and alive!

"The winds.."

Shambhu Nath, where's Subedar's house?

You want to go to
Subedar's house? - Yes.

I'll tell you.

Master, take a right from here.
On the left, second house is his.

Okay-

Shambhu Nath.. - Yes'?

How do you know that I am a teacher?

The first one also
stayed at Subedar's house.

He too chiseled me.

He still owes me Rs. 27.

It's not a big amount.
It's just a fact.

Add that amount to my account.

He is very generous.

Binder, the teacher is here.

Supply water to him.

Just one glass.

I hate wasting water.
- Okay.

I hope you didn't have
any trouble finding my house.

No. Your own village is like a GPS.

Everyone gives the
right directions. - Yes.

Thank you.

She is my daughter, Binder.

I have a grandson.

His name is Mithu.

He keeps me busy.

He studies in your school.
- Okay.

Climb up the stairs.
This is your upper-porch.

Okay. Thank you, Subedar.

Binder, make tea for him.

"Guru Nanak's words
give you happiness."

"Guru Nanak's words
give you happiness."

"Guru Nanak's words
give you happiness."

Hello.

Good morning, Gurmukh.

Good morning, Bani.
Good morning.

Here's the offerings.

Give it to me.

Cover your head, Gurmukh.

Oh. Sorry.

Bani, I am Gurmukh only for namesake.

You are the one who is one
with him in action as well as words.

Oh my-

You have given me such respect.

I don't need to eat anything today.

Your love has sated me.

You now need to eat for two.

I don't want you both mother
and son to lack nutrition.

You too said mother and son..

You too want me to have a son.

You are a fool.

It was just a slip of tongue.

I want our child
to be a girl or a boy.

I don't want you to give
birth to a chick or a calf.

You scared me.

I thought you too
like mother want a son..

She says it every day.

"I want a grandson."

She just says it.
Don't think too much into it.

You know how old hags are.

Actually, my elder brother
also has three daughters.

Hence, she wants to have
a grandson in the family.

Okay-

So, what if she gets
another granddaughter?

Her granddaughter
will be beautiful Jyoti.

If we have a daughter,
we will name her Jyoti.

She too like you will
turn darkness into light.

No.

Yes.

No.
- Master.

What happened? Did you doze off'?

No.

A memory came back to haunt me.

Could you speak louder?
I don't like low sound discipline.

What I said was you did a
great thing by breaking tea for me.

It is troublesome for you.
- No. It's okay.

Once you start meaning tea..

...l'll stand at your door every
day with an empty glass in my hand.

I am not shy.

By the way,
what is your caste and lineage?

I am a Sikh by caste.

I am a Singh by lineage.

"Chant the name, say almighty lord."

"Chant the name, say almighty lord."

"He knows everyone."

"Some are princes
and some are pauper."

'Oh Lord,
please ignore my faults and defects.'

'Help me live in humanity
but with high values.'

'Give me the strength to
support the weak and the helpless.'

'Oh Lord Almighty.'

"Chant the name, say almighty lord."

I cannot see a single
person in the village.

Does a curfew take
place in the evenings here?

Where is everyone?

Here are the important
people of this country.

Hanger, where are you hanging'?

You guys also seem to
be fed up of your families..

...because I see all
of you here every day.

Go for your schemes, Hanger.

Hello, Master.

Hello.
- I am Lottery.

Personal postman of this village.

And what is your real name?

Why?

I got the duty of counting people
who go to relieve themselves at dawn.

And to meet those who
get drunk in the evening.

Duty'? One duty comes out of another.

One duty says, you should complete me.

The other says,
I will die without you.

The third duty sends
a different friend request.

Hanger. - Yes'?

I think he came here drunk.

It's okay. We will get
him a little more drunk here.

What should I get for you'?

I neither drink nor
do I offer drinks to anyone.

Then why did you come here?
To light candles?

I actually went to the Gurudwara.

I couldn't find anyone there.

You must be wondering what happened.

I didn't bite anyone.

Not you, Snake.

Actually, I cannot kill time
without meeting and talking to people.

So I kept walking.
I saw many people here so I came here.

Villagers go to the
Gurudwara only occasionally.

Some watch TV and others
like Lottery come here.

Cheers.

Then give me a cup of tea. - Tea'?

We neither drink
it nor do we serve it.

There is no tea here.
- It's not here.

Yesterday someone stole my scooter.

And look,
today someone stole my cycle.

I got robbed.

Go home, Snake.
I'll find it for you.

But it will cost you Rs. 100.

Okay. Find it for me, okay'?
- Okay. I'll find it.

Let me take my slippers or
someone will steal them as well.

Yes, take them with you or
someone might steal them. - Well done.

First, you got his things stolen.

And then you charge
him high fees to find it.

Nice. Very nice.

Okay then bye. - Bye.

Bye.

Lottery, what did he say'?

He says that the 100
rupees fee is not adequate.

You should increase the rate.

Okay. Thank you.

Okay. Thank you.

Enough.

Enough.

He)'-

He)'-

Naughty-

Naughty-

Sir! The vegetable market is on fire.

What happened?
A lot of things got damaged?

Not that fire, the inflation.

Spare me, madam.

What's this noise all about?

Where is your teacher?

Sit down.

Here he is.

How are you, Gurmukh?

You are sitting on the ground'?
Is everything alright?

Bhullar, God said,
the more closer to ground the better.

So, I sometimes listen to Him.

Offer Sir, papa has brought
cheap bottle from Chandigarh.

You can collect it.

Shut up.

I'll go and collect
flour from the mill.

In the meanwhile
you can play with them.

I'll be back in a jiffy.

Okay. - Okay? Take care.

Hey, what did you mean by Offer Sir'?

Sir, he always grabs good offers.

Never give nicknames to your teachers.

Okay? - Sir,
they don't have proper names either.

He is Petrol.

He is Troublesome.
And he is Fuse.

Madam, if something is wrong
we as teachers should correct it.

If these kids don't
know each others name.

How will they know about
Bhai Jaita-ji, Bhai Taru-ji.

Bhai Matidas, Bhai Satidas,
Bhai Kanhaiya-ji, Banda Bahadur..

Hari Singh Nalua, Maharaja
Ranjeet Singh, Diwan Todar Mal..

And Pir Buddhu Shah.

So ma'am, you need to learn to teach.

True learning induces in the mind,
service to mankind.

What?
What was that?

Kids, these were the
words said by Guru Nanak.

Gurbani guides us to the right path.

And if you pray from your heart,
your wishes come true.

Really? You get what you wish for'?

If you ask from the bottom
of your heart, you'll get it.

Sir, if I pray that we are
not taught mathematics, will it work'?

Why pray for mathematics
not being taught?

Why not pray for his help
in understanding mathematics?

This is the problem.

We don't know what to ask for.

Kid, why are you so quiet?

You didn't play properly either.

You don't talk much with anyone.

What is your name?

Sir, her name is Fuse.
What will she say'?

You seem to be over powered.
You never shut up.

That's why we call him Petrol.

What is your name?

Jyoti.

'Her granddaughter
will be beautiful Jyoti.'

'If we have a daughter,
we will name her Jyoti.'

It's a beautiful name, dear.

Jyoti means light.

Brightness.

You will make the darkness go away,
my child.

Sir, from when can I start praying?

What do you want to pray for'?

It's a secret.

A devotee is not bounded by time.

Son, if we wait for a
special time to pray or study..

...then it will never happen.

Tomorrows work do today,
today's work now.

If the moment is lost,
the work be done how.

Basmati Rice, black pepper..

Baithi.
- Yes'?

Measure these and give them to him.
- Okay.

Well done, sir.

This is the first time someone
has given a list in Gurmukhi.

Even those who flunked the
fifth grade give the list in English.

Stop taunting.

You are making fun of me?

Flunked the fifth grade!

Now even people like you
have started making fun of date.

A wrong number.

I wasn't talking about you, Sohi sir.

It's just a fact.

What sir?
Did I ask for pounds from you'?

Do you know whom you
should address as sir?

God makes them in special quota.

Let me talk to him, Shambhu.

You are right, gentleman.

What is right? And who is a gentleman?

Bank employees keep coming
home and ruin our reputation.

He had taken a loan
for his daughter's marriage.

His neighbor said he
will give his daughter a car.

Now if the neighbor
gives a helicopter..

...will you give your
daughter an airplane?

Don't get angry, it's a fact.

Do one thing. Also tell him
that my son's marriage was called off.

If you are still not satisfied,
then beat a drum and say it.

Or go to the Gurudwara
and make an announcement.

Okay?

Yes?

Hello? Speak.

I am pull Bodiram's hair.

After I come home,
I'll pull your hair.

Are you waiting to see
my face to break your fast'?

You don't let me go out of the house.

Oh Goddess, such a big wrong number?

Don't get angry, it's a fact.

What's the case with him'?

It's a bad case.

I already told you about the loan.

His son was engaged to..

...Shamsher Singh Brar's daughter
from the neighboring village.

Earlier he too had
same land as he does.

Later, he dialed the right number.

He sold drugs and earned black money.

He then called off the engagement.

Well, you can assume that Mr.
Sohi has always dialed wrong numbers.

Here.

Nanak, the whole world is sad.

How much do I owe you'? - Rs. 235.

You can pay me later.
I'll note it down.

No. You have written on that board,
"Cash today, Credit tomorrow."

No one follows what's
written these days'?

One should follow
what's written.. - Here.

Be it in Bhagavad-Gita or Granth Sahib.
- Yes.

One should follow it.

You owe me Rs. 15 now.

It's okay.
You note it down in your books.

It's okay.
- How about a selfie?

I'll upload it on Facebook.

After Snake found his cycle..
with Hanger, excited feeling.

I uploaded it on Facebook.
- I got my cycle back.

Praise to Hanger and Lottery.

What's in that bag'?

Fish for wife.

Fish for sister-in-law.

Fish for sister-in-law.

Very good. Very nice. - Give me a hug.

My very good friend. Snake. - Snake.

Have a seat.

Give him a glass.

"There are just two
things a Jet needs."

Jat wants to hang himself.

Jat wants to peace.

Jat wants a decent death.

Now it's either the bank or me. - Yes.

They want to take away my tractor.

I challenge them to touch it. - Yes.

I will make the ministers
in Delhi quiver in fear.

Hanger, get me a cup of tea.
- I'm getting it.

Tea'? Over here?

Sohi, I had given them the things
needed for making tea in the morning.

Sohi.. Go ahead.

Go ahead and add insult to my injury.

God has given me a bad fate.

How can God have time
to write everyone's fate?

Our work and our decisions decide
the tragedy and laughter in our life.

Tea. Here. - Thank you.

Cheers. - It's okay.

No problem.

Lottery. .

You are wasting your
government salary.

No one write letters these days.

Instead,
there are more letters nowadays.

Electricity bill,
water bill, phone bills.

Insurance letters, bank letters.

Down with the bank!

Burn all the bank letters!

Stop it, uncle.

We are discussing
something personal her.

Come here, Master.

Another letter comes.

It's addressed to God.

There is no sender's address.

To God?

Really? What do you
do with that letter?

What can I do'? I stack them on a side.

You never read the letter
to find out what's written in it?

I am a very honest person.

I don't do wrong things.

Someone has done it again.

Someone stole my fish.

Look, someone steals from me everyday.

We will find it. - You Scoundrels.

I will not spare you. - Sit down.

I am listening about your
honesty from quite some time.

You and Hanger should
stop cheating Snake.

Bye.

What do you mean? Explain..

I don't understand.
- What did the teacher say'?

Tell him.

He says increase the fees
you charge Snake to find his things.

Otherwise, Snake won't mend his ways.

Really?
- Yes.

I think he stole it. - Yes.

Yes.

Okay-

Master!

You ate my wife's fish!

Who is causing this Windstorm?

Sir, that was Shamsher Brar.
The drug dealer.

I'll read it, father.

Dheela, what's the
use of reading it anyway?

You don't want to do any work.

All of them are lazy.

Son..

I have been waiting
for you since last night.

Where were you'?

I am Shamsher Brar.

I am not a toddler.

And it is not important
for me to tell you everything.

Pinkie.

Pinkie.

Dad, my name is Pinku.

I am your father.
I can call you anything.

You didn't go to college today.

My friend had kept a party last night.

I had gone there.

When I returned,
grandpa started with his questions..

"Where did you go'? Who were you with?
When did you return?"

"Where is your father?"

This is how all old men are.

What's your program for the day'?

I have to go to college.

College won't be paying you.

Get ready.
We need to make a delivery today.

Okay-

Where's Mannat?

She has gone to college, dad.

Mannat? Are you awake?

Because of you, I don't
sleep even when I am supposed to.

Oh. What a dialogue!

What is this?
You bring me here every other day.

You idiot, in a romantic movies..

...some locations are repeated.
You don't know about it.

Don't be a hero.

The day my father
or Pinku learns that..

...l bunk college and meet you here..

...they will end our movie here itself.

Have you come here to talk heart
to heart or to give me a heart attack?

I am your father's
personal son-in-law, okay'?

You aren't. You were.

Our engagement was called off.

If you really wish to get married..

Then be something.

You want me to become an airplane?

I am talking to a few companies.

Soon my CD will be released.

Then everyone will
talk about Assi Sohi.

I will have shows every day.
You just wait and watch.

Then you will have a lot of money.

Yes. Then I will pay
back my fathers loans.

Then you can even convince
my father for our marriage.

Yes. - We will send our
children to a school in Kasuli.

Yes. Confirmed.

Okay, you are smiling.
You are making fun of me?

This is not how it is done.

Teach me to copy then.

I give up. Stop it.

Don't blabbering.

When I pass through your house,
you don't get out of your house.

Don't pass through my house.

You can see me as much
as you want here itself.

Okay, so now do one thing.

Don't close your eyes.

I'll keep looking
at you for two hours.

"L have always had a royal style."

"I have always decorated
my turban well."

"I have always had a royal style."

"I have always decorated
my turban well."

"You too have always
been crazy about me."

"Beautiful,
this is what your eyes tell me."

"You too have always
been crazy about me."

"Beautiful,
this is what your eyes tell me."

"There are many more boys after me."

"There are many more boys after me."

"They don't get tired."

"It was your turban that
stole my heart away, handsome."

"It was your turban that
stole my heart away, handsome."

"It was your turban that
stole my heart away, handsome."

"I have fulfilled
all my other desires."

"Now I have just one dream."

"I want you sitting in my courtyard."

"And telling me how your day went."

"I wish to get married soon."

"Get ready to sit in the palanquin."

"You too have always
been crazy about me."

"Beautiful,
this is what your eyes tell me."

"You too have always
been crazy about me."

"Beautiful,
this is what your eyes tell me."

"I feel scared,
oh handsome turbaned man."

"I feel scared."

"I feel scared,
oh handsome turbaned man."

"I think twice before I say anything."

"You should read it in my eyes."

"I won't be saying it in words."

"You should read it in my eyes."

"I won't be saying it in words."

"You should read it in my eyes."

"I won't be saying it in words."

Sohi, you shouldn't dial
the wrong number with the officials.

They won't be breaking it apart.

They will just park it in the bank.

Don't get angry. It's a fact.

How can they take my tractor.
These bankers. - Keep quiet.

Stop blabbering.

Sohi's son is here.
Assi. - Thank God he is here.

Come here. - His son is here.

Now he is say something sensible.

What the hell, Scoundrels!

You keep showing up at
the door like a stray dog.

We have only taken
a loan from the bank.

The bank hasn't bought us.

Get this straight, Sandhu.

I'll break the bones of the one
who tries to take the tractor away.

Mind your language, son.

Your name is Agyapal.
And you keep barking orders.

Come on, Mr. Gupta, start the tractor.

Subedar, talk to them.

Brother,
you should hear us out as well.

Give them a week's time.

His son is still a child.

I will break his bones.

Assi!
- What makes you think I am a child'?

Subedar! My son is brave.

Who are you saying is a child'?
What do you think of yourself'?

Look, we are government officials.

We just follow orders.

We don't like taking
away anyone's thing either.

Thing! It's not a chocolate!

It's my tractor!

I will die, but I won't
let you take my tractor with you.

Why die, son'? Hit him.

Sohi, this isn't
about any enmity or ego.

You will have to pay the government
its money back. - Yes.

But Master.
- Wait.

I request you, either let us
villagers talk or both of you talk.

Look, we can only make a request.

We cannot stop you
from doing your duty.

Master, these are official letters.
There no use of stamping them.

I request you, if possible,
then for us villagers' sake. - Yes.

You are right.

But they don't have any
manners to talk to anyone. - Okay.

If they are not talking
in a proper tone..

Then at least you can
do something good for them.

Farida, do good for the bad.

Do not fill your mind with anger.

Our body shall not
suffer from any disease..

...and you shall obtain everything.

Okay. We will do as you say.

But let me tell you,
we are giving them just one week.

If they don't pay the installments
we will take the tractor.

Let's go, Mr. Sandhu.

Thank you very much.
- Do one thing.

Don't come after a week.
Come after four months. - Sohi..

My stand shall remain the same.
- Sohi..

No matter what your stand is,
the tractor will stand in the bank.

Get angry if you want to.
It's a fact. - Bodi...!

Don't make me hit you.

Binder sister.. - Yes, brother'?

You make amazing tea.

So'?

I am just telling you.

You make amazing tea.

I will make you some tea.

But you should reduce
your intake of tea.

You should drink warm water instead.

I will make you some tea.

But you should reduce
your intake of tea.

You should drink warm water instead.

Stop ordering her around.

She never takes rest.

Bani, I have asked you
not to wash any clothes.

You are carrying my grandson.

My grandson.
Come on, dear. Take some rest.

I have already decided
my grandson's name.'

Kultar. He will make his family proud.

I have made a pledge
at the fakir's place.

And I have also offered
food at the Saint's place.

Any child is a God's blessing.

A child is after all a child.

To hell with that.

You are the one who is
going to give birth, right?

I gave birth to two strong men.

I didn't even think about girls.

I thought about boys
and gave birth to boys.

Why are you standing up there?

Your father died
waiting for a grandson.

But I won't die until
I play with my grandson.

Tell her..

Speak up, Gurmukh.

Gurmukh..

Gurmukh..

A penny for your thoughts.

Should I bring the tea
upstairs or are you coming down?

I am coming down.

You should eat dinner with us today.

Binder has made greens. - Okay.

And at time do we get together?

I won't be able to ever forget Bani.

What? What did you say'?

I said, I'll eat it.

Oh Lord Almighty.

To Lord Almighty.

Who writes them?

Who is my enemy'?

Lottery,
this letter is not meant for you.

No.

It is wrong to read anyone's letter.

Father. - Yes'?

Tell me, what should I do'?
- Go to sleep.

What? - Go to sleep.

Okay-

okay-

Good night.

To Lord Almighty.
I wonder who writes these letters.

Lottery, go to sleep or
I will come down and thrash you.

I am sleeping.

Did Gurmukh work in the
transport department earlier?

Why'? What happened?

Look, he sometimes becomes
a train and a bus sometimes.

What is he, Neetu madam?

Bhullar sir, I think he is mental.

Sir.. we are using
more grains nowadays.

From the time this new sir has come,
more students are attending school.

You should take less stock home now.
- Well done. Train, go ahead.

Can't you keep your voice down?

Take less stock home!

Madam, I'm going to the crossroads.

I'll be right back.

Until them,
you keep giving signals to the train.

Take less stock!

Bye. Now he will
be back only for lunch.

Enough. Enough.
Stop. Stop. Stop.

Kids, I know tomorrow
is a Sunday. Okay.

It's a holiday.

But all of you have to
spare a few hours for the garden.

Will all of you come?

We won't be coming, sir.

Why?

This is a fair tomorrow, sir. - So'?

The whole village attends it, sir.

The whole village attends it?

Yes.

Then why shouldn't you go'?
All of you should also go.

Thank you, sir.

Sir, I will come to school.

Why, son'?
Don't you want to go to the fair?

Who will he go with?

His mother stays quiet.

His father left them.

My father didn't leave us. He didn't.

My mother says that my
father will come for sure.

My father will come for sure.

You too will see, sir.
He will come for sure.

You all can leave, kids.

O Nanak, God blesses
the unworthy with virtue.

And bestows virtue on the virtuous.

O Nanak, God blesses
the unworthy with virtue.

And bestows virtue on the virtuous.

Bani.. - Yes'?

Don't you get tired of
reciting Gurbani the whole day'?

Gurmukh, how can anyone
get tired of doing something.

...which gives one peace and happiness?

You just wait and watch..

The day you get the
known from Gurbani..

...you too will get answers
to a lot of your questions.

Really? - Yes.

No.

The questions will be answered
when I will get a grandson.

Both of you will go to the
city today itself and do the test.

I have spoken to the doctor.

You will have to take the test.

You will get it
aborted if it's a girl.

Mother.. - No.

Don't talk. Just listen and follow.

Did you two understand?

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Master!

Master!
- Yes! Yes..

What's wrong? Is everything all right?

Yes. Everything is all right.

Come here. Come.

Have a seat.

I apologize, Subedar sahib.

I got lost in my thoughts.

I couldn't hear you.

Master, many incidents,
many sorrows are such that.

...they take away the
control you have on yourself.

My daughter Binder..

She used to talk nonstop.

I used to address her as Radio.

Now look at her.

The circumstances hit
the mute button in such a way..

...that my daughter has
turned into a clay doll.

Sukhi, Binder's husband..

He was very happy
when he went to Iraq.

He used to call every third day.

Those were some happy days.

He spent many years
saying that he is coming.

But he never came back.

It has been 10 months since
we got a call or a letter from him.

Some say that he went to America.

Some say that the terrorists have..

We don't know.

We don't understand.

Subedar sahib..

...one feels scared one
thinks about bad things.

I am a soldier.

I didn't feel scared while
fighting the war of 1971..

...wherein I could have easily died.

But.

I cannot tolerate to see
my daughter suffer like this.

Binder stays quiet in front of me.

But I know..

She is not as quiet as she seems.

I am her father.

I know everything.

I know how she hides her tears.

Sukhi..

If Sukhi is dead then
I will think it's God will..

But I cannot see her sad like this.

She loves Sukhi.

Subedar Sahib..

It doesn't suit you
to behalf like this.

O Nanak, don't be anxious;
the Lord will take care of you.

He created the creatures in water,
and He gives them their nourishment.

This small..

I was this small when my
father found me in the dustbin.

Someone threw me in the bin.

I don't know who my parents are.

All I know is that father had gone
to deliver letters and he found me.

His father was an unmarried man.

God gave him a child,
it was like winning a lottery.

Free ticket to salvation.

Hence, he named him Lottery.
- Lottery.

Now tell me how can be
more unfortunate than the one..

...who doesn't know what is
his religion, caste and lineage.

Lottery. . - Yes'?

You have the best religion of all.

Which? - Humanity.

What? - Because that's the
real religion of Guru Nanak's Sikh.

Recognize all of mankind
as a single caste of humanity.

Lottery. . - Yes'?

Why do you cry over the fact
that someone threw you in a dustbin?

Why don't you instead thank God..

...because someone took
your out from a dustbin?

Let me meet God then I shall
ask him what his religion is.

Those bankers are after
my life for no good reason at all.

How can you say that
there is no reason, Mr. Sohi?

Who asked you to go beyond your
capacity at your daughter's wedding?

Why did you take such a huge loan?

There are two kinds of
people who suffer in life.

Ones are those who think
but don't do anything.

And the ones who think
after they do something.

"What have I done!"

Master, don't make me go after you.

You wouldn't be lecturing like this
if you too were burdened by loans.

Sohi, first of all,
I wouldn't have taken a loan.

If I had taken a loan then
I wouldn't worry about the tractor..

Not a tractor.

For a Jet tractor
is like a son to him.

Forgive me.

But God has blessed
you with only one son.

And his name is Assi.

You should concentrate on
helping him find the right direction.

Before calling the water dirty“

...you should first look
how dirty your hands are.

You should seek medicine
for your wounds..

You shouldn't seek sympathy from
people by showing them your wounds.

The one who has given you
the mouth will also feed you.

Sitting in a bar and getting drunk..

...and quetching over your
sorrows is not a manly thing to do.

Please forgive me if I
have said anything out of turn.

I won't forgive anyone.

Someone once again messed up.

Someone stole my scooter
along with my shawl..

Who stole it? - It was
parked over here and covered it..

So that no one steals it.
- Who stole it?

Get lost. I'll go.. - In my presence.

Who stole it in your
brother's presence'?

I will find it for you.

Your brother. Your true brother.

Really? - But it
will cost you Rs. 200.

I'll give you. Long live Hanger.
- No, no, no.

Don't say long live Hanger.

Say, shame-shame Hanger. - Why'?

Because Hanger and
Lottery fool you every day.

They first hide your things
and then they charge you to find it.

Your scooter is parked back there.

Okay?

Now more long live
Hanger and Lottery..

Shame on you!
- Sorry. Sorry.

"You can embroider flowers
on my shawl if you please."

He sounds like Sukhi.

Mummy! Mummy! Mummy!
- Yes, son'?

Gurmukh sir is going to the fair.

Can I go with him'?

Say something.

I live for your happiness.

You can go.
- Really?

Then get my long
shirt and pants ready.

I'm going for a bath.

Come on.
- Sir, you are cheating me into jogging.

Hey, the fair is just two
kilometers away from our village.

We have already
covered half kilometer.

Are you tired already?

The issue isn't about getting tired.

It ruins my gait.

And this dust is doing
my makeup for free.

You should understand.
Try to understand.

You can surely talk.

Sir, my father is not coming back.

If I cannot talk then
I will be all alone.

No, son. Your father will come back.

You are talking to God, aren't you'?

Sir, God is still making me pray.

By the way, what does your father do'?

My father has a
permanent job with God.

Okay-

This means your father is yes.

Not yes, death. He died.

Sir, that is a bad word.

I don't use such words.

By the way,
did you go to fairs with your father?

I used to go to fairs with my father.

I used to sit on my father's
shoulder and watch the fair.

The fair used to look so
big from my father's shoulder.

I used to enjoy the rides,
eat fritters and ice creams..

I used to ask him
to buy this and that.

You know my father..

What happened, Mithu?
Why did you stop?

Don't you want to go to the fair?

Sir, I don't want to go to the fair.

Why?

Now I will see the fair
while sitting on the shoulders.

Come here, then.

Come on.
Come sit on my shoulders.

Not yours, sir. My father's..

Mithu says that with
confidence and not diffidence.

Mithu! Mithu! Mithu!

Mithu!

'Lord, I have a father.'

'I have one, don't I?'

'Then please send him back to me.'

'My mother cries when alone.'

'Make her smile like
other mothers do.'

Otherwise,
Mithu will stop talking to you.

Assi, I saw a dream last night.

I was helping you set your turban.

Oh my God. What happened after that?

Then you looked into
my eyes and tied your turban.

Then it must have been
difficult to set the layers.

I mean I must be wondering..

...whether I should set myself
in your eyes or set my turban.

Then you said that you
have to go for the show..

And asked the people
to take your autographs later.

So that means I will
become a star for sure.

Then a lot of people will meet me.

To click my photos.
To books shows with me.

And our village will
be known as Assi's village.

You just wait and watch.

Stop daydreaming.

No company has called you back.

One had.

They said that I sing well..

...they will release my
CD if I pay them Rs. 20 Lakhs.

So'?

So then, I started lashing out on him.

Lashing out won't get
our vehicle on the track.

We are on the track.

Fortuner, Mercedes, BMW..

Brother, when you go for delivery,
you consume half of it.

I cannot open my eyes
without these drugs.

"Listen to me very carefully
about the situation."

"All the staff and students
are going overseas."

"Left behind are the farmers
who are close to their land."

Stop the car.

"Now the Singhs have.."

Pinku? Here'?

Have some shame.
She is elder than you.

Sabi..

Teach him a lesson.

And I'll take care of my sister.

Let's go.

Brother.. please.

Dad, please listen to me.
- Don't utter a word.

Because any word that comes out of
your mouth can turn me into a monster.

My daughter cannot
walk the paths of Heer.

Because if you do then I'll have
you and him buried in these paths.

One more thing. I won't repeat myself.

No more college.
You've studied enough.

Now you will graduate
only in one thing. Marriage.

Asst .

She is still alive. She didn't die.

I am her father.

No. You are an enemy.

To us and to yourself as well.

Your illicit business and
tormenting ways will make you repent.

We have no respect
left in this village.

Only brave people
like me can do such work.

Your village's useless
people can only talk.

And what respect
are you talking about?

You couldn't even invite
the village chief at my wedding.

When you will die, the C.M.
will come, father.

When your shadow and
your ego go beyond your size..

Then you should know that
the fall of night is here.

Dear. .

It's difficult to measure
the depth of a well and love.

It's not easy to be in love either.

It's very difficult.

Look, you too have
dents because of love.

He has decorated you well.

People are scared even to look at me.

No one can dare touch me.

I would beat them black and blue.

He says.. - Look son,
he is a druggie and her brother.

He has beaten you up heartlessly.

Be gratefully that those
lunatics left you alive.

Listen..

You know that your
engagement was called off.

You know that you two
won't be getting married..

Then why do you and
Mannat still see each other?

Mannat and I didn't
even know each other.

Our fathers fixed our marriage
because of their friendship.

When we started falling in love,
they called it off.

This is a limit.

It is difficult to say no to a stranger
that you meet while traveling.

And here we love each other.
How can we call it off'?

So you are really in love.

This is love,
not some song the DJ is playing.

On which you can dance for
a while and then forget about it.

So you have full intentions
of being with Mannat.

I consider her to be my god.

Fine.

Then god will do it.

As its said..

When He is merciful,
then your desires will be fulfilled.

When He is merciful,
you will never grieve.

When He is merciful,
you will know no pain.

When He is merciful,
you will enjoy the Lord's Love.

Just stick to the truth.

See you around.

We should do everything
from our heart.

We should do it with hope.

We should do it with determination.

We should do it with our heart.

Because God is much
closer than imaginable.

Once a person sat with a clay toy.

He started requesting
it to turn it into gold.

He got fed up in the evening.

He got tired.

He got sad and said,
if not gold, turn it into copper.

God was closer.

Quickly that toy turned into copper.

Then he started regretting
and wondering what have I done!

He thought, if I would
have kept saying turn into god..

It would have turned into gold by now.

So where did he go wrong?

When his intentions went weak.

Right?

So kids.. - One shouldn't
let their determination go weak.

Very good.

Now we will take the class outside.

Okay? - Okay, sir.

Let's go.

Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

How are you, Master?
- Great. How are you'?

Are you planning to become
a preacher after retirement?

Please let this remain a school.

I'll be right back.

There is a committee meeting.
Please keep an eye on my class.

They make a lot of noise.

I'll be right back.

'Your letters won't go waste, dear.'

Lottery.. Lottery is your pet name.

What is your given name?
- My given name?

Lottery OWE'-!

Really?
What is Oyye?

Oyye is my lineage.

Hanger.. - Yes'?

Why are you pacing like that?

Won't you offer tea to me today?

I will, Master.
The box of sugar has gone missing.

I'll find it for you.
But it will cost you Rs. 100.

Wait, Snake. I'll pay you Rs. 100.

Wonderful.

Your past comes back to bite you.

Now you are agitated.

You are feeling bad
when it happened to you'?

Look, it hurts when you are hit.

Snake. - Yes'?

Give him the box back.

Here's your box.

Today make two cups of tea.
Okay?

What do you mean?

It means Master has
taught us a lesson.

Don't worry. Our turn shall also come.

Lottery. . - Yes'?

Yes'?
- Your turn is coming soon.

How so?

The one who used to write
letters to Lord Almighty..

I found that person..

No, I didn't find that person.

No, I mean I have found that person.

Why should I find that person?

No Lottery, I am telling you that.

...I have found the person
who writes letters to Lord Almighty.

Who?

A student from my class.

Jyoti.

She writes letters to Lord Almighty.

Her mother passed away.

She stays in this village
with her maternal grandparents.

She is waiting for a reply for
her letters since the past two years.

She is a fool.

How will she get
a reply for the letter..

...which doesn't reach the recipient?

She will get a reply
from Lord Almighty.

Where is Lord Almighty?

Lord Almighty?

Look over there.

That's Bachchan.

Lord Almighty dwells in him.

Lord Almighty dwells in me.

Lord Almighty dwells in Jyoti.

Lord Almighty dwells in you as well.

Now I don't know whom Lord
Almighty will ask to write the letter.

This belongs to you.

Now you can either
drink it or spill it.

Bye.

Master. .

I don't know what Master
told you in your ears.

But a person who usually
speaks openly whispers something..

...in someone's ears then
it has to be something important.

"He ploughs the fields
early in the morning.."

"You have a beautiful
sight in front of you."

Yes, sweetheart.

A little far, a little together.

Why this silence'?

Kill me with your sweet words.

Asst .

Forget me.

Okay-

Should I forget you right away
or after I keep my harmonium away?

Keep smiling like this.

I am getting engaged tomorrow.

Please forgive me if you can.

Hello?

Hello!

Hello!

Hello?

Oh Goddess,
I have done no harm to anyone.

Then why did you do this to me?

I was working hard
to nurture my children.

May you get ruined you robber!

"There is darkness all around."

How can you take my tractor away!

"There is no moon in sight."

Back off!

Damn you all!

They are taking my child away.

"There is no happiness in sight."

"I have heard that
you are ever so forgiving."

"Forgive me."

"The person who seeks
your refuge never loses."

"The sorrows of life
are overburdening."

"I have lost all battles."

"The sorrows of life
are overburdening."

"I have lost all battles."

"Oh Lord.."

"Have mercy."

"Oh Lord.."

"Have mercy."

"There are so many
obstacles in my path."

"There are so many
gasps in my breath."

"There are so many
obstacles in my path."

"There are so many
gasps in my breath."

"I cannot find any shore in sight."

"I cannot find any shore in sight."

"Oh Lord.."

"Have mercy."

"Oh Lord.."

"Have mercy."

How much? - Rs. 60.

Give me a fifty and a tenner.

Master?

If you want to get your motorcycle
serviced then let me know.

Someone will pick up the bike,
service it and bring it back.

If something goes
wrong you can catch me.

It's a fact.

Lala.. - Yes'?

If you have forgotten any
job then you can add that as well.

You have listed almost everything.

Can't help it. I am in need.

Let me know if I can
do anything else also.

Now I cannot go back to the old shop.

Now I need to open a big
general store for Resham Mittal.

It's a fact.

Why won't you open for me?

Oh my mistake. Oh my wrong number.

Your name is Resham Mittal.

Petrol is your pet name.

If only I wish,
I hadn't named you petrol.

It's a fact.

Bodi.. - Yes'?

Two kilos of cauliflower.
- Okay.

And one kilo potatoes.

Okay, okay.

Mr. Sohi.. What's Bodi?

You are from the same village.
You should respect each other.

Call him Shambhu Nath, call him Lala.
Call him sir.

Stop it, Master.

My fate had already made fun of me.

On top of that,
you have started lecturing me.

Fate is just a four-letter word.

And weak fools like you
turn into an overbearing mountain.

Look at Shambhu Nath.. he has
started afresh challenging his fate.

Robbers stole everything
from his shop.

He didn't consume poison
or cursed his fate.

You are young. Do something
meaningful with your life.

Why do you behave like an idler?

Here you go.

Sow happiness, young man.

And smiles will grow.

There are many who blame the fate

And there are those whose
cut across stones to survive.

Tomatoes.

Hello, Master. - Hello.

Bodi..

Yes'?
- How much for the tomatoes?

Six. - How will you give them'?

I'll sell by weight.
- Okay. Hurry up.

Not Bodi, Kannu auntie.
Call him Shambhu Nath.

Bye, uncle Shambhu. - Bye.

See you around. - Bless you.

Kannu auntie?

He used to address me as Kamli (fool).

When did he change?

He dialed the right number.

I recently became his uncle Shambhu.

Master! Master!

You should leave
this place immediately.

What happened?

Today the liquor
seller himself is drunk.

You have stopped the
ones who used to drink.

Snake isn't drinking and Lottery
is also not touching any alcohol.

Hanger..
- Don't come forward. (30 back.

You give lectures, you start
preaching and I am losing my clients.

It's okay. There are many
alcohol lovers still left in Punjab.

Lottery, have a seat. Let's have tea.

I have stopped selling tea.
Go away.

Lottery, why don't you have a drink?

Whom do you have other than alcohol?

Lottery.. where is Sohi?

I haven't seen him since many days.

I think we will soon hear the news..

Of his suicide.

If there is no harvest,
there is no future.

There is a lot of loan.
You should die.

Great.

This is pride.

Show the product you are hiding.

Things which you need to
hide are either a theft or a sin.

You have neither stolen
anything nor committed a sin.

Life and death are
in the hands of God.

But human beings are
trying to become God.

They have taken death
into their own hands.

I have not come here
to stop you from dying.

I thought I should spend some time
with a person who is going to die.

What is your name?

Dilar Singh Sohi.

You are doing a brave thing.

It is a very brave thing to do.

I don't understand,
what made Guru Gobind Singh..

...sacrifice his family,
his kingship, his four children..

...and yet with pride say:

For saving these sons,
I have got my own four sons martyred.

So what if four are dead,
when thousands more are alive.

It's a pity to see his heir..

...who lost his tractor
and suffered a loss..

...and carry a bottle
of poison in his hand.

It's okay. It's your will.

Let me know if you have any last wish.

If you have any message
for your wife or Agyapal?

He will take a loan tomorrow
and perform your last rites.

Bye. See you around.

Oh.. how will we meet again?

A dead person doesn't come back.

And there is no next life.

I wish there was a next life.

I would have been born as a brave man.

My weakness made me lonely.

I sought darkness for myself.

Look, it is a business for me.

If I don't perform the abortion,
someone else will.

Think about it.

She is in the fifth month.

Abortion is risky for her life.

Nothing will happen to her.
You do your job.

You look like a gentleman.

Mother.. - Shut up.

You have said what you had to say.

We have said what we wanted to say.

Brother, you will have to
come with me and fill a few forms.

Go.

Go on.

Mother, think over it.

Go.

Doctor. .

I had warned you.

Poison has spread all
across her body. - What?

She has very little time left.

Bani..

Please forgive me.

Don't say that.

I couldn't give you a son.

I don't want a son.

Look Bani..

You are my son, you are my family.

You are my life. You are my world.

I want you, Bani.
I don't want anything else.

Get up. Let's go home.

Yes, Bani?

You used to say..

That if we had a daughter.

We.. would name her Jyoti.

Bani.. you are fine.

Nothing is wrong with you. Okay?

Bani!

Bani!

Bani, I promise you.

I will never cry again.

Okay?

Let me cry to my heart's
content today, Bani.

Where is your father, son'?

Where can he go'?
I think he is still asleep.

Have you lost your mind'?
You say he is not awake?

He wakes up at the crack of dawn.

I don't know where he is.
I haven't seen him.

Really?

Assi, I hope he hasn't
done anything to himself.

We will be ruined.

Father!

Father!

Assi's father!

Father!

Father!

Father! Father!

Father!

"Father!" What happened?

He always wants his father.

Why are you staring at me?

You are staring as
if you have seen a ghost.

I was just stretching a little.

I have gone stiff.

Ask your mother to warm
some milk with cardamom.

Ask her to add some yellow liquid too.

Yellow liquid? - Honey.

Mother, add some honey
in the milk for your honey.

Warm some for him too.

From today I and my son will
work in the fields like workers.

Workers? - Farmers.

My son will channel the water.

He will cut the crops. - Yes.

He can practice singing there.

And he will also get some exercise.

Hats off to your scheme.

Now we won't touch alcohol and drugs.

Let's go. - Let's go.

Great.

May God give long
life to these bankers.

If they wouldn't have
taken the tractor away..

...then my husband won't
have chosen the right path.

I have seen him laughing
after a long time.

Thank you, God.

Thank you.

Sir..

My dear children..

What happened, sir?

I cannot do it, sir. I am feeling shy.

No, don't feel shy.
Sit down. Today you are the sir.

I am a student. I am being punished.

I am standing outside.

My dear children.

You get knowledge from books.

But there is some knowledge
that you don't get from books..

You get it from your day-to-day life.

By respecting your parents.

By keeping good company..

By doing good deeds.

Come, instead of asking for bungalows,
money and cars..

Let's ask God for a blessing
of doing good deeds.

O Lord, grant me the boon..

...that I may never deviate
from doing a good deed.

That I shall not fear
when I go into combat.

And with determination,
I will be victorious.

And with determination..
- I will be victorious.

And with determination..
- I will be victorious.

Thank you, Gurmukh. For guiding me.

From day,
no going out during school time.

Only teaching.

And I shall begin from now itself.

Come on Neetu madam,
let's go to our classes. - Great.

A huge round of applause
for your sir, kids. - Thank you.

Let's go, madam.

Welcome. Welcome, Lottery.

Most welcome.

You are late.

I wanted to show
how good these kids are.

Come.

You have come to see which
one of them is Jyoti, right?

No, Master. I know who Jyoti is.

Actually, today is her birthday.

Really?

But how did you know?

I read the letter.

You read the letter but didn't reply.

This is a limit of shamelessness,
Lottery.

You could have given
her a letter as a gift.

I won't be able to write it.

Fine.

As you wish, my postman brother.

Sir! Sir! Please listen to me.

Hold on. Don't say anything.

Wait. First listen to me.

Here's 100 rupees.

Today is Jyoti's birthday.
- Really?

Go and get sweets worth Rs.
100 from the confectioner.

Okay-

'To my dearest Lord Almighty.'

'I am sure you must
have recognized me.'

'I am Jyoti who writes
letters to you.'

'Give my regards to my mother.'

Happy Birthday to you.

'Lord Almighty, today sir celebrated
my birthday in a grand style.'

Happy Birthday dear Jyoti.

Happy Birthday to you.

Happy Birthday, Jyoti.

'Sir gave me a very
beautiful gift as well.'

'But I didn't receive
your letter today as well.'

'After you have called
my mother to be with you..'

'..you haven't replied
to any of my letters.'

'Now if you don't reply
to me then I shall die.'

'I know that I can meet
my mother after I die.'

'Please tell me how
my mother is doing.'

'Bye, Lord Almighty.'

'I'll wait for your letter.'

'My dear Jyoti.'

'Accept lots of love.'

'I am your Lord Almighty..'

'The world kept your Almighty busy.'

'Hence, I couldn't reply to you.'

'Now I shall reply to all
your letters, old as well as new.'

'Jyoti, your mother is very happy.'

'Oh yes,
we too celebrated your birthday.'

'We had cut a cake.'

'Angels attended it, they danced.'

'And everyone together sang,
happy birthday to you.'

'Happy birthday dear Jyoti.'

'Your mother was very happy, dear.'

'But all of us and your
mother are upset with you.'

'You shouldn't stay sad, Jyoti.'

'Your mother becomes sad
when she sees that you are sad.'

'Then she starts feeling restless.'

'You should smile, when you
smile your mother also smiles.'

'Your mother watches everything
that you do down there.'

'Don't worry about your mother.'

'Lots of love from your mother.'

'Yours' Lord Almighty.'

Love you, Lord Almighty.

Love you, Mummy.

Oh Lord, with your grace,
I have opened a new general store.

With its first income I
shall install fans in the school.

Just help me succeed.

Oh Lord Almighty.

Lord Almighty

Lord Almighty,
I don't even know how to pray.

I was upset with
you for so many years.

I have come here to
thank you and to apologize.

letters as Lord Almighty.

But I feel so happy to see her happy.

Bye.

Lord Almighty..

By the time, we reach school
the function will be over.

You are anyway coming
back in the evening.

Sir, you forgot what you taught us?

I don't want to lose
my determination.

...and make all my prayers
go down the drain.

And then it's you who said..

...one shouldn't go against
your character on the character day.

Mummy, smile please.

Love you.

Soldier..
- Yes'?

Give me the cap.

Who is he?

First give me the cap.

Who is she'?

Don't you know? She is a mother.

Mother'?

God sent you'?

I had written Him a
letter to send a mother.

Thank you, God.

Listen everyone.

Jyoti's mother is here.

Well done, Lottery. You are amazing.

You are the one who is amazing.

You gave a lottery to this Lottery.

But.

Why did a decent man
like you became a prisoner'?

I too am someone's culprit, Lottery.

Let's go, kids.
Let's play the next game.

Come on, everyone. Come here.
Come on, come on.

Quiet. Quiet. Quiet.

So from now on, say no.

Okay kids,
now for the thought of the day.

Okay? - Okay, sir.

God's children.. - So many of them.

To make excuses...
- Is to feel scared and accept defeat.

What is difficult?
- To make it simple.

What is simple?
- To make it difficult.

Baba Nanak has said in Gurbani..

He was True when the ages
commenced and has ever been True.

He was True when the ages

Mummy..

Mummy?

Mithu, your daddy
won't be coming back.

He will never come back.

No, Mummy. He will come back.

He will come back for sure.

Don't lose hope.

Don't lose hope, my dear.

Be smart.

I tried being smart
by sending Sukhi away.

But what did I gain?

What happened, Subedar Sahib?

We had gone to DC's office.

The lists that came from Iraq..

Sukhi's name is not in there.

Hey, that's good news.

You shouldn't lose hope.

Master. .

Today, I met a boy who was with Sukhi.

He came back yesterday.

He was in a bad state.

He said he met Sukhi six months ago.

He wasn't in a good condition.

That boy said that..

It's no use having unnecessary hope.

I won't talk to God.

Don't say that.

You shouldn't say such things.

God will set everything right.

Papa, you will have to come back.

God, you will have
to send my father back.

Mithu.. Mithu!

With whose support should I live?

I don't feel like living anymore.

Come in, Lala.

Coming.

Hello, sir.

Lala, he is the sir now.

I am just an old man now.

I think he's in a bad mood.

Hello, sir.

Come, Lala. Where have you been'?
It's past noon already.

Your son dialed the wrong number.

He came an hour late.

After that,
he wasn't ready to leave my store.

Order me, I have to go
back to my business as well.

Okay. . - Yes'?

The musical ceremony on
the 13th will take place here.

Very well.

I've given the arrangements
for the wedding to someone else.

You won't be able to handle it.

To make it spicy all you
need to do is add chilies. - What?

Don't get angry. It's just a fact.
- Okay.

Mannat, I cannot see you
with anyone else other than Assi.

Come, I will give you some money.

Money? Give me Rs. 1 lakh or so?

Okay. We are like family.
Give me Rs. 50,000.

Come with me. - Let's go.

Come in.

Pinku!

Pinku!

Pinku!

Pinku!

What happened to him'? - Pinku!

Shall I go and get water? - Yes.

Pinku!

Pinku!

What happened to him'?
- Son?

Pinku!
- Don't worry, son. I am here.

"It's seems like no one cares."

"Oh my heart, let's go away."

"Our love isn't valued here."

Assi.. what's wrong?
Why are you singing sad songs today?

Assi, look over there.

Our inspiration is walking towards us.

Lala.. - Yes'?

How are you'? - Fine.

Where are you coming from'?

From here. - From a wedding?

I had some work in
the neighboring village.

I got the pressure
relieve myself on the way.

I thought I should do that as well.

I think you made a big deal.

Sohi, you are asking
questions like a reporter.

If you want to ask the
questions then go ahead.

Shamsher's son Pinku
had fainted today.

This isn't the first
time this happened.

He has been to the
hospital a number of times.

Shamsher's son is a known drug addict.

Shall I share another
news with you'?

Don't say that I didn't
share it with you.

Shamsher has fixed
his daughter's wedding.

He has booked me as
the cook for the function..

...that is taking place on thirteenth.

His daughter is getting
married on the fourteenth.

Move your cart.

I think your can is stuck in a ditch.

Don't get angry. It's just a fact.

What's this for'?

Today is 14th February,
Valentine's day.

A day meant for lovers.

Really?

I swear on this lover's day.

I'll bring a wedding procession to
your house on the next 14th February.

"Oh my beloved, you shouldn't
leave someone like this."

"Oh my precious, you shouldn't
cheat someone like this."

"When someone lays
his heart at your feet."

"When someone loves
you more than life."

"When someone lays
his heart at your feet."

"When someone loves
you more than life."

"You shouldn't push him away."

"You should fear God."

"Oh my life, you shouldn't do this."

"Oh my life, you shouldn't do this."

"Oh my life, you shouldn't do this."

"When someone is eagerly
waiting for you."

"When someone has
big dreams in his eyes."

"You shouldn't Whopper them."

"You shouldn't lie to them."

"Oh my life, you shouldn't do this."

"Oh my life, you shouldn't do this."

"Oh my life, you shouldn't do this."

"I have tolerated all
kind of pain for you."

"My eyes are wet,
you can come and see."

"What is my fault
if we got separated?"

"Fate has ruined me."

"When someone dwells
in your heart to survive."

"When someone is scared
of being separated from you."

"Being separated from you."

"When someone dwells
in your heart to survive."

"When someone is scared
of being separated from you."

"When someone lives
only to see you smile."

"You shouldn't fight with him."

"Oh my life, you shouldn't do this."

"Oh my life, you shouldn't do this."

"Oh my life, you shouldn't do this."

They took the tractor
just a few days ago.

I hope they don't take my bike away.

Oh my.. people from
Speed Records at my place?

Amazing.

Hello. - Hello.

Mr. Dinesh. - Hello.

Hello - Hello.

You had come to Jalandhar
to meet us. - Yes.

Now we have come to meet you.

Your song is a hit, brother.

You will become a star.

Thank you, God.

You are destined to get cars
bungalows and wealth, my brother.

The world is waiting for you.

Here are the keys to the car.
As a gift. - Okay.

But you will have to
sign three years' contract.

Tell me where I need to sign, but..

What?

But there is one thing
more important than cars..

Tell us what you want, sir.

I will tell you.

First, let me give my first autograph
to the Speed Records. - Okay.

Wonderful.

Master! You brought a car!
- Congratulations, Gurmukh.

Auntie, today I have
come to congratulate you.

I don't understand.

Then let me explain.

Please welcome Mr.
Dilar Singh Sohi's two sons.

There you go.

Congratulations to
Assi's mother and father.

What do you mean?

It means this car belongs to you.

And this tractor
already belonged to you.

What happened, auntie?

Assi, it's time to offer
sweets and auntie wants medicines.

That's why we don't hit jackpots.

I'll go and take
the tractor for a spin.

"Sometimes like this..
Sometimes like that."

"Give me a hug, father.
Extend your hands."

"Come on, give me a hug."

People are not honest
while selling milk.

How do you expect me to
be honest while selling drugs?

We don't force anyone's
child into taking drugs.

No one will become a martyr
by dying because of drug overdose.

Listen, Pinku will be there
in half an hour with the delivery.

He just has to deliver them to you.

After that, it is your responsibility.

Take care of these things.

Pinku! Pinku!

Pinku! Pinku!

Dad! - What happened?

Dad, you said that you will save me.

My child.. - I don't want to die, Dad.

I don't want to die.

Dad.. Save me, Dad. Please.

N..

Save me, Dad.

L.. - Pinku! Pinku!

My child.

Father!

Pinku...!

Pinku, my child!

Son..

Son..

Pinku! Pinku!

Pinku!

'Your illicit business and
tormenting ways will make you repent.'

'We have no respect
left in this village.'

'Only brave people
like me can do such work.'

'Your village's useless
people can only talk.'

'And what respect
are you talking about?'

'You couldn't even invite
the village chief at my wedding.'

'When you will die, the C.M.
will come, father.'

Shera, brace yourself.

We cannot go against His wishes.

I killed him, Dilar.

I killed my son, Dilar.

I used to sell drugs to others.

Those very drugs killed my son.

My brother.. - Drugs killed my son.

I killed my son.
- We cannot go against His will.

No.

Gurmukh..

No.

Yes.

Bani..

I am your culprit.

I killed both of you.

You and my daughter.

I don't want to live
alone anymore, Bani.

I want to be with the two of you.

You are great.

You are ending God's gift
of life without fully utilizing it.

L.. - Gurmukh..

I have not gone anywhere.

I am alive in you.

Don't kill me by killing yourself.

What happened with me,
it was God's will.. - Bani.

Everyone is subject to His Command.

No one is beyond His Command.

Gurmukh, learn to live
and teach others how to live.

Let go of your silence.

Don't hang on to my shadows.

Instead,
you should recognize Bani's soul.

You should seek refuge
in the soulful Gurbani.

You will, won't you'?

Yes.

Yes. Yes.

She..

She is my daughter.

Your papa-

My child.

Follow Baba Nanak's Bani..

"Oh Omnipotent Fakir, you are great."

"Only you know what's in your mind."

"You make some pick glasses
and make some pick pearls."

"Oh Omnipotent Fakir, you are great."

"Only you know what's in your mind."

"Oh Omnipotent Fakir, you are great."

"Only you know what's in your mind."

"This person dances in your worship."

"He is your follower down here."

"You protect everyone."

"This person is made of raw glass."

Shamsher, you won't might like it,
I want to say something.

Dilar, I won't stop you.
You can do as you please.

"Oh Omnipotent Fakir, you are great."

"Only you know what's in your mind."

"He makes some follow someone.."

God, make the barren land flourish.

Amazing.

Yes.

Agyapal Singh is getting
married on 14th February.

He's invites you for
festivities from today itself.

Well done, my boy.

"How the stars change their position,
oh Lord!"

"Oh Omnipotent Fakir, you are great."

"Only you know what's in your mind."

"Oh Omnipotent Fakir, you are great."

"Only you know what's in your mind."

Snake, can you eat all those sweets?

You are talking about sweets?

Let him loose and he will
put his head directly inside the wok.

Right. - No, no, no.

Right. Do it. I will click your photo.

Hello, if you click the photo you
will have to upload it on Facebook.

Okay. - For sure.

We will. - For sure?

Tell me then, what will be the status?

Master will decide that today.

Tell us, Master.

Yes, tell us. - Yes, tell us.

Tell us, Master.

If you put your face inside
the wok and eat the sweets.. - Yes.

Then there can be only one status.

What?

Dogs eating sweets.

You too, Master?

Hold on, let's ask Master.

Master? - Yes.

We can drink some alcohol
during the wedding can't we?

Why are you questioning
me since morning'?

I told you, once you leave it,
you leave it forever.

We won't drink.

I can ask about dancing.

We can dance, can't we?
- Ask politely.

Have you not attended a
wedding where there is no dancing'?

Behave yourself and
attend the wedding.

I just saw at you for no reason,
Lottery.

When will you dance
if not at a wedding?

Let's dance!
- Let's go and dance.

"Never try to divide
and rule in your village."

"Never try to divide and
rule in your village, brother."

"Never try to divide
and rule in your village."

"Never let your friends down."

Hey, what's this noise?

Don't you know that loud
music disturbs the discipline?

Idiots.

Listen to the songs
that they are playing.

It's an auspicious occasion.
Play that son.

"Oh DJ, play my song."

"Hey DJ play my favorite song"

"Hey DJ play my favorite song"

"Play my song"

"Hey DJ play my favorite song"

"We are about to apply the kohl.."

Brother-in-law, tell me, how
much will you give to apply the Kohl?

Yes, yes, yes.

Yes, yes'? What yes'?

Tell me, how much will you give me?

Around Rs. 125,000.

Rs. 125,000?

Do you want to kill your sister-in-law
with such kind of a joke?

What did I say'?

Didn't you say that
you'd give her Rs. 125000?

I was booking a wedding show.

Hey Mr. Minister,
first finish your wedding. - Yes.

Snake?

Why are sitting here.

This isn't your borrow.
This is my son.

Sit properly.

It's okay. I will extract his poison.

Hey bed of snake, behave. - Mother!

Mother! - Yes'?

How much do I pay my sisters-in-law
for cutting the ribbon?

Your father gave your
aunties only Rs. 100.

My father flunked in the fifth grade.

I am close to graduation
and a famous singer.

Then you can give Rs. 151, son.

I am to give them money to cut
the ribbon and not the toll charges.

Give them whatever you want.
- Okay. Get inside.

You should have come on your buffalo.

Subedar Sahib,
if I had seen your tank.

...I would have come on a calf instead.

Amazing.

I have heard your buffalo
growl a number of times.

This is the first time
I have heard you talk.

My name is Ronak Singh.

She is my granddaughter. Jyoti.

Her silence had silenced me as well.
- Oh. okay.

So Jyoti is your granddaughter.

Yes, she is mine.

Cancer killed her mother, my daughter.

Her father's family left her
to me when she was just an infant.

Now it is my duty to look after her.

No more a single, brother.

I am getting Lottery
engaged to my sister-in-law.

It will cost you Rs. 51000.

But I am your brother.

One can only feed
free tea to a brother.

You cannot forgo
a brother-in-law's fees.

I agree. - Look over there.
They are cracking jokes over there.

Mr. Sohi!

Let's take the wedding
procession on time.

Otherwise, all the dry fruits
for the guests will get over.

You are standing here and blabbering.

It is your brother's wedding.
Do you knees hurt'? Go and dance.

Okay, then play the music
which is loved by everyone. Khamcila.

It's Chamkila.

Mithu!

Mithu!

Where did he go'?

Shamsher,
now both the house belongs to her.

You can come over whenever you want.

Okay then, let's take Lord's
name and get going from here.

Not like this, Master.

Here. Take a handful of them.

No, Mr. Sohi, this is your right.

No, no, no.

The one who taught what life..

...means comes before
the one who gave him life.

Go ahead. - As you wish.

You saw I didn't let
my determination go weak.

Baba Nanak's words
and prayers are great, sir.

Sukhi, my child.

My son..

My child, my son, where were you'?

Where were you'?

Master?

Master, I've come back
from a place where even death..

...must be surprised how I escaped.

I had lost all hope.

But your prayers won.

You are the True Master,
Your Praise is so beautiful.

One who sings it, is carried across.

Nanak speaks the stories
of the creator Lord..

...whatever He is to do, He does.

Are you happy now, sister?

Yes, brother.

You are great, Oh Lord.

We had come here to
take a daughter-in-law.

But Lord Almighty also
sent our son-in-law back.

Now let me see who doesn't dance!

Dance!

Yes, mother.
Hello. I seek your blessings.

You forgot me, Gurmukh.

When will you come back'?

I cannot forget, mother.

I still haven't forgotten
the ones who left me forever.

Please forgive your mother, son.

Even mothers forgive their children.

Are you so upset with me, son'?

Mother, I have to join a new school.

I'll get back to you after I join it.
I'll pay you a visit.

Your nieces miss you, son.

They are here. I brought them back.

Really?

Okay, mother.

Then start making stuff breads.

I'll first come and meet you.

I have a prayer to make.

Don't leave anything to fate.

Pray for everyone's happiness.

Give happiness to those who are sad.

Save water and nourish
plants like they are your own.

Seek refuge in Gurbani
to know the meaning of life.

Never speak ill with a daughter.

Do your deed and share with everyone.

Yours' truly, Gurmukh Singh.

Assi, let's click a
selfie with Master's prayer.

Okay. - We will upload it on Facebook.

Okay. - What will be the status?

We all will be writing
"Miss you, master!"

Come on. Come. Sit down.

Smile!

These aren't just images.

They are residents of Punjab.

Some have endured the 1947 mayhem.

And some have endured 1984.

Today, they endure suicides.

They endure politics.

Those who were once joyful,
playful, carefree..

Now endure sorrow.

Isolated streets, scared hearts.

Someone stop this catastrophe.

There might come a time you
might yearn for a son or a daughter..

Oh people of Punjab.

"A broken glass can be mended."

"Sorrows can also fade away."

"But you have to keep the hope alive."

"Lord Almighty can read your heart."
