Original subtitles

Did you extend an invitation to Brahmins?

Being a Brahmin, I never fail to extend any invitation...

...religiously, dear master!

Hence, so far as eating habits are concerned...

Why did you wake me up, brother?

Get beaten of from you. So long, my sister's sweet voice...

...I don't hear I don't derive any satisfaction. Come dear!

- Hurry up! - First, you get me my horse...

I will get you today only.

Meanwhile you become horse and allow me to have a ride. - Oay.

Oh my God! Hey dear! I'll be your horse, come here.

Hey Munim! A donkey can't be a horse.

- So, you're correct! - Hey donkey!

Now you go and freshen yourself.

Meanwhile, the breakfast will be ready.

I wish to see her always in a jovial mood.

I've seen many men who care more about their children.

But, there is only one who cares more about his sister.

Don't exaggerate! I do nothing unusual.

I love my sister very much.

Obviously, Sir!

Yes, little master! Just now I'll give you breakfast.

Let me bake the flat cake.

Don't do it. Else, my master will beat me.

- Give me way, else! - Okay!

What happened, my dear?

- You have burnt your fingers? - No, Master!

Master! While cooking the flat cake her fingers got burnt.

Why did you allow her to cook...

And you made her to cook.

Who would have been held responsible?

Useless fellow! I warn you again.

Come dear! Hey Ganpat, Hariya!

Are you fine, dear?

Oh no, father! I am alright.

You are a nice girl.

The girl, whose mother is no more, has to struggle more.

- Is it not? - To do our job I never falter.

- Good. Now get ready quickly. - I'm already ready.

Father, I am getting late for school.

- Here I come. - This is mine and it's your's tiffin.

- What about that tiffin? - It is for my brother Kalu.

Why are you carrying a tiffin for him today?

Otherwise, what will he eat at school?

Had he been regular in school, no one would have grumbled.

Let him go to hell.

All know about his dishonesty.

Since morning he is missing along with the cattle.

He is fit for cattle grazing.

I'd have been happy without him.

Then, whom would I have called as my brother?

He is problematic. For me, you're my daughter...

- Father! - Make move.

The atmosphere is pleasant, today.

But, he is worried about the school.

Hey master! Show your tricks now.

I see! You mean the tricks need to be shown.

May I show the tricks?

Don't know why you are sitting here doing nothing?

- Today is holiday. - What? - Today is a holiday for all.

Teacher's cow has delivered a calf. Hence he won't come.

The teacher has no cow at all.

Go home, now.

I am a gentleman otherwise I'd have taught a lesson to the teacher.

Tell how many 'Mashas' are in 10 grams.

Twelve 'Mashas'

How many 'Mashas' does one 'Rattis' contain?

Thus, eight Rattis make one Masha...

16 'Chataks' makes one 'Sher'.

40 'Shers' make one 'Man'.

Tell, what was I teaching?

40 Shers make one 'Man'.

Where is your attention?

Bhondu lala owes 15 annas and 3 pies.

Mangat Singh owes 20 six times.

- I see! - Govinda Mahajan!

What happened dear? Why are you weeping?

Did anyone scold you?

- I won't go to school. - Don't go, dear!

- My teacher thrashed me. - Is it so?

Call that teacher here, at once.

He beat my sister. Go quickly.

I didn't beat her, Sir.

She was not attentive in class.

Lajoo never goes to school for studying.

I send her to school to while away the time.

Understood? Despite being an ordinary teacher, how did you dare to beat her?

Hey master! I beat for her welfare.

What is your status?

The school is run by me, on my charity.

Else, it won't run... You all will starve to death.

The mistake was mine, master. I seek your pardon.

Better seek the pardon from Lajoo.

- Lajoo? - Yes, indeed! Go ahead.

- Lajoo won't attend school today. - I know it, master.

Over such trivial matter, why are you discontinuing her education?

Why should I educate her? Education is not important.

- Correct! - Shut up! You don't know the importance of education.

Our times were different. The time has changed entirely.

Without education, no one can stand on one's feet.

He is right.

Let the time change 110 times.

But, an importance of wealth...

...will remain even in future.

You're absolutely right.

You revealed the truth, Chaudharisahab.

But, alas!

We know that to conquer...

...the world, the wealth, the wine and the woman are capable.

This is all for Lajoo.

What is the use of education then?

True! See how destiny plays its role.

He is right.

Hey Munimji! Do you agree with him?

An education makes a man perfect.

Reconsider your decision, Chaudhariji.

I agree you're a rich fellow.

It is difficult to find a good groom for an illiterate girl.

For you, it may be difficult Gangaram...

Hence, you go for education.

For my Lajoo, I'll find out a handsome groom by spending money.

My sister's hand will be given in marriage to an affluent man.

You're absolutely right.

We're getting late for school. Here I go.

15+ 2 = 17...

...making the total at rupees seventeen and odd.

Okay! Get his thumb impression appended.

Come on.

Hey you! Get back.

- What are you doing? - Move along.

That job is meant for the servants, my dear.

Get along, Move away!

Move away! My goodness!

The calf is very much adamant.

Hey Lajoo! You're unfit for such a job.

- Move away! - Hey! Move!

You never allow me to do any job, brother.

Can't you while away the time? You got angry...

- I'll be back soon, brother. - Where are you going?

- To meet my friend. - will you not tie 'Rakhi' to me?

Mak e preparations of 'Puja' I'll be back soon.

Potatoes! Groundnuts!

Listen, Jeevan! There is a limit to everything.

Else, I'll drive you out of the village, complaining to my brother.

Observe some limits. Coughing is not a crime.

- Am I right, Munimji? - You naughty!

Sometimes, even coughing leads to crime.

But, since my childhood I've been coughing.

I don't understand... After my father's demise...

...Lajoo's brother forgot my alliance with Lajoo.

An expert is required to evaluate the diamond.

The time changes on and often.

Earlier, you're known for your nobility.

Nowadays, gambling has become your pastime.

- Hey you! - I've seen many ups and down.

Chaudhari is jealous of you as you are wealthy.

Even, I am called as Jeevan.

Then, bring Lajoo as your life partner.

On festivals, atleast do not be after studies.

What do you mean?

Education is chasing me.

Hey you! will you not join me in 'Rakhi Mela'?

I'll certainly accompany you.

- Hey Basanti! - Here I come, Bapu.

- Have you come, Lajoo? - Greetings!

God bless you! Take, this is your letter.

Give it to your brother.

May I read it for you?

Even my brother needs a reader.

Read loudly!

First, hold your breathe.

It is addressed to Chaudhari Shambhunathji.

As per your instructions I've searched a groom for Lajoo...

...who is really handsome.

Discussions are going on... Don't giv e consent to other alliance.

Yours loving Thakur.

will you give me the sweets?

First, you give the sweets...

...as you're getting married soon.

How are the looks of your would-be husband?

I know nothing about him.

I devour the books, one after another.

Had my Bapu been wealthy...

...I'd have learnt more.

- Like a mad man. - Hey Kalu, brother.

You've disturbed my sleep.

- The sun has risen up. - The sun has gone wrong.

Have I to get up at midnight if sun rises, then?

I'll leave as I've to tie 'Rakhi' to my brother.

- Surely! - Okay!

You too get prepared. I'll tie 'Rakhi' to you.

I won't celebrate this festival.

The sisters get a good chance to collect money from the brothers.

Hey you! Are you still here?

When will you go to the mark et?

Today is the 'Rakhi' festival.

After bath, I'll ask my sister to tie the 'Rakhi'...

...and I'll give her money. Give me money.

Take this, you useless!

I finished my bath.

Tie 'Rakhi' to me now.

Take one rupee for tying the Rakhi.

Here, I take back the rupee as a loan.

Don't worry. I'll return it next year's Rakhi festival...

...if Bapu gives me one.

Why! Are you going to meet Gauri today?

I've told you several times not to harass me.

Today, I'll enjoy a lot.

Your sister has brought colourful 'Rakhi'

'Let her tie it on your wrist, O my brother'

'I won't ask for a gold or silver chain in return'

' I'll ask for a bit of love my brother'

' A lot of love'

'Sister has brought Rakhi with full of love'

'May I bring the stars from the sky'

'Or shalll bring the garland of Moon light'

'Bring a lot of joy'

'Your love makes your sister extremely happy'

'When your sister isn't with you'

'When she is sad, away, in a distant place'

'She will be eager to meet you'

'Don't know when we get separated'

'Let me tie the Rakhi now

Wood turns to coal and coal turns to ash by burning.

Similar is my condition.

I'm coming in.

Why did you come here at this time? Leave. My father might come.

I'm not a fool.

Your father is selli ng oil in his shop right now.

Tell me why didn't you come to fair today?

What's the matter? Why are you crying?

You will be shocked to hear.

A boy is coming to see me with his father on 16th.

My father has fixed my marriage.

Who is he to fix your marriage?

- What can you do? - Watch for 16th to see what I can do.

What does he think of himself. He has seen my face not my strength.

He sells oil and ghee. I'm a postman's son.

I'll send him up without even packed up.

- Gouri... - Shut up. - My father. - Father!!

Father has come! Hide me. Else he will be killed by me.

Come here. No, this way.

Who was here? Whom were you talking to?

No one, father. I'm cooking potatoes.

Cooking potatoes or fooling your father?

Choudhari, don't misunderstand me for saying this.

I smell of Kalu not potatoes.

Get ready.

Who is it? You! Quick. Don't let him run away.

You can not escape. I'll see who will save you.

You! Where did he disappear?

Choudhari, I'm going.

Stop it.

- What's the matter? - This wedding won't take place.

We are being cheated. Girl's handicap is not told.

Hold your tongue. Our daughter has no handicap.

My daughter is educated. Cultured.

Crippled too. I can not disgrace...

...family by making her my daughter-in-law.

Don't say so. What is the harm if she has a slight limp.

My house isn't an orphanage to keep crippled. Let's go.

A father's honour is at your feet.

If not me, atleast show concern for an innocent's lif e.

Henna applied on her hands is still fresh.

I cannot burden my son for lif e for your daughter's sake.

If she isn't married just for the sake of little handicap...

...no father will pray for a daughter.

Your tears won't change my decision. Let's go, brothers.

Gangaram's daughter is like daughter of the village.

Don't ruin the name of the village.

If you want, I can gift you one or 2 thousands to save your reputation.

I'm not so cheap to be bought for 1 or 2 thousands.

3000, 5000? 7000? 10,000? I can give what you demand.

I can not refuse if you insist so much.

But, I refuse.

- Daughter! - Stop the bargaining.

I don't want to go a house where...

...daughters and daughters-in-law are bargained like cattle.

Have you gone mad! What are you saying!

I said what I must say.

You may leave now.

You get angry if salary is delayed for a day or two.

Why are you slow in your job? They must be coming.

Did you get it right?

Kallu, I can not do it. Take back your money.

You donkey, you put me down at the last moment! You better come. -Okay.

- Pandit Teluram. - Welcome Pandit Kalicharanji.

How did you recognize me!

Why not? I've received your lett er.

- My son himself is here. - Greet your father.

- Greetings. - Come in.

Come in.

- Have something. - Why not?

They look delicious!

- Isn't the girl at home? - She is here.

Daughter, Gouri, bring tea.

Hope you had a comfortable journey in the train.

We came walking. ...I mean from the station.

Greet father, dear.

You are her father.

Your daughter is gone on you.

- But your son isn't gone on you. - He is gone on his father.

- Mr. Teluram... - Come in. - Here is a letter for you.

Where are you going? Let me introduce you to my...

...daughter's would be father-in-law.

He is Mr. Kalicharan, astrologer from Rajpur.

Mr. Kalicharan of Rajpur!

That is in the past. I'm only an astrologer, Mr. Gangaram.

- How do you know my name? - I'm an astrologer you see.

- You are great. - Don't make me a sinner by touching my feet.

My son has given me lot of pain. - I know.

Read my pal m and tell me is there any happiness?

I've to do it. But I can say this much that...

...he is lucky to have you as father.

Do something about it. You can say a demon is born to a Godlike man.

Demon. One shouldn't talk bad behind ones back.

I can say it on his face.

Mr. Teluram, show me your hand.

- Strange! - What is the matter!

It is against our interest but I can not lie.

I'm an astrologer after all.

Lines on your palms read that both of your...

...children are going to marry.

- What are you saying! - Leave alone marriage...

...we won't let him enter our house.

Don't brag. Those destined to come will come by god's grace.

You may begin preparations for your son's marriage.

Leave alone God, even I can not prevent this wedding.

- I'll take leave of you. - Bye.

Mr. Gangaram, please read the letter before leaving.

Respects to Mr. Teluram.

I hope you must have received my earlier letter.

I had to stay back due to some urgent work.

So, instead of 16th...

...I'll come on 18th with my son, to meet you.

From your well wisher, Kalicharan.

Kalicharan! Then who are you?

- Who are you? - I'm Munim.

Kalu! I'm already angry.

You rogue... rascal...

Not having children is better than having one like you.

You can hit me more but listen carefully.

The hands that are hitting me will dress me up as groom.

Kalu, save me. You worry about your wedding attire!

- Is it over? - Yes.

You can only talk. Shakarbai is waiting there.

You could have written a letter or send someone to her.

It's a matter of day or two.

I'll go to town myself if she doesn't come in a day or two.

I've some personal work with her.

It will be possibly done.

But in the next birth.

- Greetings, Mr. Choudhary. - Greetings. Be seated.

You were talking about you and you arrived.

- Have you fixed it? - You can say it's fixed.

I never leave things incomplete.

You go and see the boy, complete formalities and fixed the wedding.

We have to talk of what all to give in marriage.

First thing boys mother did is, talk of it.

I told her that she has to buy another mansion to keep dowry.

You are right. All this belongs to Laju.

I'll keep what's needed for my sustenance, give the rest to Laju.

Keep something for me too.

I'll go with you. I'll get ready while you eat something.

The girl looks beautiful in the photograph.

She is much more beautiful than her photograph.

That's okay but we have to see her family background and her qualities.

No need. She will change the atmosphere at home in 2 days.

You just relax and order her around.

You can see their status.

We have turned down many proposals for they not being of equal status.

We have people ready to pay 50,000 dowry in cash.

It can be less but status should be equal.

Why to compromise on dowry? He has lots, isn't it Chowdhary.

No need to mention. All I've is Laju's.

I'm ready even to give 1,00,000 dowry.

Have you heard it? This is status!

What will happen now, Choudhary?

What else? I've to teach a lesson to Shambhu.

My name is Jeevan.

Crying? You should be happy. You are going to your home.

Brother...

O my child... take your brother's advice.

Be a good daughter-in-law.

Consider your in-laws are your parents.

...and your husband is your God.

- Bless you long married lif e my child. - Brother...

Brother... don't cry.

- Greetings. - Be seated, dear.

Congratulations to you both.

- A doll! - Yes. You must get a baby in a year to play with it.

Today is a day to celebrate.

Our friend Deepak is tied in holy matrimony.

You can see his face beaming with joy.

You will be happy to know, on this occasion...

...wedding of one more friend of ours has taken place.

I'll show you how it is performed.

Not take you to his home but, on this stage.

'Here comes the bride from Marwar all dressed up'

'My lover is from Lucknow.'

'My lover is handsome'

'My name is Abdul Latif.

'What's your name?

'The world is intoxicating'

'My name is Chabili'

- 'Excellent' - 'Spare me'

'The Jewel on my head is expensive'

- 'What is this? ' - 'Dress from Bikaner'

'My jewel on the head is expensive'

'I'm wearing a dress from Bikaner'

'Excellent. Shall I ask you something'

'What did you bring from parents home'

'A whole lot of tantrums'

- 'What else have you brought? ' - 'Mesmerising eyes'

'What are your feelings for me'

'A lot of desires'

'I'll make you hear in the garden. 'What'? - Chirping of birds'.

'The garden belongs to a neighbour. She might come'

'When we sing duet she might come'

'When she finds us together... '

'... she will feel envious'

'You throw tantrums'

'You keep me away saying it isn't the right time'

'What can I do when I'm feeling shy?'

'The bride is from the North'

'The groom is from Gujarat and is handsome'

'I'm a boy from Gujarat'

'I'm here to stay'

'Train from Marwar has come. I'm so overjoyed'

'I'll die of separation'

'You have driven me crazy by keeping me away'

'I'll say what ever I want'

I beg of you. Don't trouble me.

Of course we do. Someone is waiting for you inside.

- Shut up. - You blush like a girl. - Sister-in-law is laughing at you.

The world is trying to reach to the moon for ages.

But couldn't till now. I've done it without any efforts.

Laju, say something.

- Are you observing silence? - What!

Not observing silence but observing fast.

I'll never forget your innocent face and your innocent answer.

Break the fast. Eat.

- You eat too. - If you feed me.

What's this?

- Mother's pampering has spoiled him.

He is like my brother. He is our old loyal accountant's son.

Orphaned at a very young age.

Mother raised him like her son. He is very naughty.

Don't misunderstand him. He is only trying to bring us closer.

- What about you? - Me?

You have got rid of me but can not separate me from my other wife.

Other wife!

Why to hide from you? I'm already married once before.

She is deaf and dumb.

But keeps me awake all night.

When I wake up in the morning I find her head on my chest.

- Come I'll introduce you to her. - I... - No need to be afraid. Come.

This is your competition, my library.

- That means... - I'm fond of reading since childhood.

What a shocking joke! I got scared.

No need to be scared. I trust we will be together for life.

I love them and...

You too...

Do something.

Today is the first night of our union.

It would be so nice if you, in your sweet voice...

...recite poet Bihari's poetry which...

...because of it's beauty and romance...

...captivates the listeners.

- But... - Why feel shy?

Book is there, pick it up.

Sing the verses so that the entire world rejoice your voice.

Book is in the front. Go.

What did you do? You picked up Shakespeare!

- The thing is... - What is the matter?

- I didn't understand what you said. - What do you mean?

I...

...my brother didn't educate me.

That means you are illiterate!

Totally illiterate?

So I was banging my head against a rock!

- Listen. - Leave me.

My dreamnight turned out to be dark.

Stop whistling.

I'm feeling hungry and thought...

...that I'll divert my attention by whistling.

Breakfast will be special since sister-in-law is making it.

-Daughter-in-law, be quick. - Deepak is getting late to college.

It's time for my school too.

- Go and see if breakfast is ready. - Okay brother.

Is the breakfast ready?

So this is breakfast. I'll serve it to brother.

Breakfast she made is great.

Look. It is India map. This is omelette.

- It smells good. - O god. What's this!

We are unfortunate to get a daughter-in-law like her.

You can say good natured.

Why did you bring it? Go throw it at her face.

It's not her mistake.

She is like Goddess, isn't it? She brings wealth.

Not prepare breakfast.

Where are you going? I'll make breakfast for you.

There are many hotels which serve breakfast.

Is this breakfast! This is what you learnt at home?

Don't dare step into the kitchen.

I wonder what is going to happen to our son.

What else? We have to think about it.

We can not see our son's life ruined.

- Let go off me. - I agree. I'm not worthy of you.

Atleast, let me serve you as a maid.

I don't need any service nor a maid like you.

'Relationship is maintained'...

'... when I'm being obedient even when he is unfair'.

'But when it doesn't work... '

'Let him say what do I do'

'Even the pain is precious to me'

'when it is given by him'

'This pain is my life now'

'how can I get rid of it? '

'I couldn't win his heart'

'I'm like an end less night'

'It's written in my fate that'...

'... I burn like a candle'

'No one wants me'

'No one wants to look at me'

'I' m depressed'

'there is no sprig season in my life'

will you write a letter for me?

Write a letter? Brother writes such fat books.

Sister-in-law can not write even a letter.

Excuse me. I've no time to waste.

May I write the letter if you say so?

- You are so nice! - Whom to writ e?

To my brother.

Write, 'my dear brother...

...many many greetings.

I wanted to send a letter for days but I couldn't.

The reason is, since the time I came into this house...

Reply to this letter early. Written by your dear sister.

Don't say written by you, but got it written.

You are disgracing our family by getting it written by a servant?

Aren't you ashamed? You mannerless!

She is. How could you write it?

Aren't you ashamed to get it written by a servant?

You must have complained about me. You must have abused me.

Must have put me down. I understand you and your brother.

- Give it to me. -What?! Let me see how much you wrote against me.

- No. - I' m not afraid of it. You can write any number of letters.

I only want to know what you have written in it.

- No. - Give it to me. - No. - Let it go.

My dear brother, many many greetings.

I wanted to send a letter for long but couldn't.

Reason is, I've no time since the time I came here.

Mother-in-law pampers me a lot.

She is very loving towards me.

Don't ask me about my husband.

He takes such good care of me that he even forgets his work.

Truly, brother, they have made me forget even my parents house.

He is so nice that I don't think I'm worthy of him.

His love for me made this house heaven for me.

Forgive me. I made a big mistake.

It is not your fault or of your brother's.

Without thinking he got his illiterate sister married to you.

It's my fault I've robbed all your happiness. - Don't say so.

Your letter has opened my eyes.

With your praise for me, you proved you are a goddess.

No. I don't consider myself worthy of you.

No. You are worthy of praise by gods.

It's not your fault.

Your brother's pampering and riches didn't let you study.

Knowledge is a precious possession for a man.

But you have humanity which is invaluable.

- Forgive me. Say it once. - No.

Don't make me a sinner by saying such words.

- I should seek your forgiveness. - No. I committed the sin.

I caused pain to your delicate heart.

I'll compensate it. I'll teach you personally.

I'll make you a worthy person that...

...people feel proud of you one day.

Smile once...

...which will brighten up your Deepak's life.

Just once for your Deepak.

Music is in the air all around.

Have you written it?

Yes, teacher.

Which language is it in?

You are literate. Read for yourself.

- Why do I read? - Your answers are great.

Where is your mind while studying?

Where is your mind?

With you.

I cannot even get angry because of your innocence.

You have shown your capability in learning.

What about poetry? Did you by heart it or forgot?

Your eyes found me...

...worthy of your love

O my heart beat, stop

Since I've found my destination

I accept...

...your decision

My eyes are...

...saying thank you

...for including, me in your life

I'm your destination

You are my destination

I can even fight the storm...

...when you are my anchor

Someone tell the storm that I found my anchor

My heart is...

...overshadowed by your shadow

All around me I hear...

...the music

I've achieved...

...all the happiness in the world.

Teacher, haven't you heard anything?

- How do you like it? - Your lips that sang this song...

You are too much.

If you pay the amount of attention your pay to me...

...you can pass the High School next year.

- 10th exam? - Yes.

But I plan to do MA next year.

You mean Master of Arts?

No. Don't you understand the meaning of MA?

What does M and A together make?

I'm going to become a father!

Tomorrow is auspicious day and festival of Rakhi.

You can tie Rakhi to your brother.

This news will make him very happy.

- I'll tie Rakhi later. - Why?

Kishor isn't feeling well who will take care of him if we go away?

- We will go to village during your vacation. - Vacation!

- Both of us! - Yes. - By then 3 of us can go.

- Who is the 3rd person? - Our son obviously. - You are too much.

- Did I get any call yest erday? - I don't know. - Daughter-in-law?

Yes. He was talking of some buying and selling. I didn't get it.

Have you heard her? Her simple mistake caused me loss of 15000.

Why did I had to accept her alll iance at all.

Past is past. Give up your anger.

Deepak has finally started talking to her.

Shut up. It all because of you.

This wouldn't have happened had not you made me greedy.

Take care. I'll be back by tomorrow.

Elders say one must not ask where one is going while leaving.

will you t ell me yourself?

Going to meet Laju. Rakhi festival is over.

She didn't come nor sent any letter.

Laju is illiterate. She can not write letters to you.

It would have been different had she been married here.

I would have brought her myself to you on Rakhi Day.

Rascal, I'll break your jaw if you open your month.

Daughter-in-law, I'm going to temple.

Give him medicine if he wakes up.

You are awake! How do you feel now?

- Why did you wake me up? - It's time for medicine.

- I won't drink it. It's bitter. - How will you recover if you don't.

I'll bring it.

- Is it the medicine? - Yes. But I said I won't drink it.

You bett er drink else I'll call Ramu to hold you up.

Drink the medicine.

- Father-in-law... - Don't dare call me father-in-law.

How can you give poison to a kid?

- Poison! - Yes, poison. I never thought you will stoop so low.

You want to kill him just because he teased you once.

I say get out of here.

I'll throw you out today. Get out. - Father...

- There is no place for you in this house. - Please forgive me.

I would hand you over to police if you weren't my daughter-in-law.

Don't do that.

I gave it to him unknowingly. You know I'm illiterate.

Even if I believe you, you don't deserve to stay in this house.

Your ignorance could be dangerous. Get out of my sight.

Go to your illiterate brother.

I can take your abuses.

Because I'm her brother.

Your behaviour with your daughter-in-law doesn't befit you.

I don't consider her my daughter or daughter-in-law.

You brought her as your daughter-in-law. - Brother.

- This is what your affection meant? - It was an inauspicious day for us.

We are still repenting for it.

- Thakur Saab... - I thought you are a respectable man.

I didn't realiz e you cheated me though your offer of money.

Control your tongue you are crossing the limits.

I'd have retaliated with bullets if you weren't elder to me.

- What else can be expected of a man from a rogue family.

Who are you to interfere? What right do you have to interfere?

Go away. Don't ever come here again.

- I'm very happy here. - I can see that.

I'm sorry. It is my, mistake not yours or Laju's that...

...I left my doted sister with heartless people like you.

Stop th is nonsense. Get out of here.

Laju, see what I've brought for you.

What's the matter. Tell me.

- What's the matter? - What do I tell you.

Father made a big mistake. I wonder what happened to him.

Wait. I'll bring your brother here.

Send her to him instead.

- Father. - Haven't you heard? - I've heard.

I'm ready to accept her with all her short comings.

I don't understand why are you after her?

It was your mistake earlier, and now too.

- Deepak! - Poor girl is innocent.

Her only fault is she is illiterate. You accused her unnecessarily.

By insulting her and her brother, you disgraced our entire family.

You mannerless, listen carefully.

I won't tolerate you bring that uncultured here.

I'll throw you out. You won't get a dime from my property.

People consider their children as their true wealth.

I regret that you consider wealth as your child ren.

Keep it. Congrats to you and your wealth.

What's going on? Get away from me.

It is not their fault but mine, a humble servant of yours...

...whose ambition you have killed.

You have done everything to spoil my reputation.

Tell me what do I do with you?

I'll avenge my humiliation.

Don't be foolish. Come to senses.

If you can not make your family proud, atleast don't disgrace it.

Go away from here.

Murder... murder... What are you waiting for?

He is dead. Phone up police.

Murder... Murder... Catch him... - Catch him.

Deepak, what have you done my son.

Get out.

You ruined us and are still here to watch the fun?

You, witch, aren't you satisfied by my young son's death?

Aren't you satisfied with his death?

She is a witch. She swallowed my young son.

Get out of my sight.

Go away. There is no place for you in this house.

Get lost.

'Look someone's house is ruined.'

Someone's life is ruined

Luck is gone against her

And she is full of sorrow

Gone with the wind is...

My world of my happiness

Fate has given me tears

I suppressed my smile

Path is deserted without my companion

Where do I go? I'm helpless

The path is difficult and the destination is far away

My life is so dark that...

...the sun and the moon together...

...cannot bring light into it

Seasons change

But our old days will never come back

Tears are rolling down here and...

...the sky is crying too

After ruining me...

it's being indifferent.

The rain might stop but...

...my tears won't stop

- Who are you? Whom are you looki ng for? - Why is the door locked?

Government has locked it up.

Shambhunath ran away after killing Devdhar.

- Murder! - Yes. Police is searching for him.

Who is it?

- You...? - I'm the postman here.

- And... - He passed away.

His family... sister, Kalu.?

God knows where they've gone.

Whom do you want to see?

There are no lights?

No lights because the light of the family is no more.

- What do you mean? - Deepak died in a car accident.

So his family left this city.

- And their daughter-in-law? - Tragedy has befallen her.

Her in laws branded her a jinx and threw the pregnant girl out

once the husband was cremated.

But who are you?

I'm a friend of Raja's brother.

You might know that poor man is charged with murder.

- Yes. - If he finds out...

He will kill himself.

If the unfortunate man finds out, he'll take his own life.

If the unfortunate man finds out, he'll take his own life.

- Excuse me... - What's the matter?

I'm from a poor family. Can I get a job here?

Do you know cooking?

I'll learn in a few days.

Come after I've found a servant to teach you.

Can you read and write? Can you teach my kids?

You can't cook, stitch or read and write.

- But we'll keep you for dishes - I kept one just this morning.

Can you cook?

Come back when I've kept a servant to teach you.

Can you read and write? Can you teach my kids?

You can neither cook nor sew or read and write.

Are you alone?

Have you no shame?

Have you no sisters? Get lost!

Or I'll hand you to the police!

Sister, where do you want to go?

- What can I say? - Then come with me.

- I... - Don't worry. I'm a family man

Where will you go at this hour?

Come...

Why did you stop? Come on.

Let go!

Help!!

Help!

Who is it? What happened?

I say... listen!

- What's the matter? - Get some water.

It's a girl!

Lajjo has delivered a baby!

- Get your brother. - In a flash!

- Customer? - We' re not so lucky.

Yes, every shop is filled with customers.

Only our shop is vacant.

3 day old dry curd weeps.

- Customer... - Cold buttermilk!

Two glasses of sweet buttermilk

Right away.

You're lucky there's just one pot of fresh curd.

Here... drink up.

Goes straight to the head?

- The other way round! - It's sour!

Is this buttermilk or vinegar?

- Return our money! - What money?

We work here. We can take not return money.

- Where's the owner? - Having buttermilk across.

- Cheats! - We're in a rush or else...!

Come on. We got stuck with thieves!

Cold sweet butt ermilk!

- Did you hear, it's a girl! - What nonsense!

Impossible. We've only been married for 3 months!

- Must be a boy. - You have no brains!

- Lajjo delivered a girl. - Oh. How nice.

- Come home. - Yes.

Neither brother nor husband survived.

I feel like consuming poison.

Tell me who should I live for?

For this little angel. The memory of your husband.

Be brave.

Take courage from me. I faced such tragedies.

Lost my father...

Finally my education paid off.

Found a job and... there comes my husband.

It's a girl!

Congratulations. What a sweet baby!

Forget the past. Now consider this your home.

And bring up this child. It will give peace to his soul

I'll be at peace when I embrace my niece.

You've come here for the first time. What will you have?

Or fresh cool buttermilk?

Don't laugh. This isn't your Pop's in hospitable home!

It's our home.

What's wrong?

The master hit me.

You must have done something. What did you do?

I forgot the numbers.

Then he was right. Go back to school.

- I won't go! - Why not? Go back!

Why did you beat Kiran?

I wish my brother had hit me like this.

I'd have been spared sorrows of life.

You said if I pray to God and to Dad, he'll return.

I always pay my respects Then why doesn't he return?

He will return. Positively.

God lives far away. It takes time to return.

Dad will get tired. May I go there instead?

Don't ever say that.

Don't...

What's the matter? What are you thinking?

I am thinking why the people I love leave me?

Who?

Your uncle...

And one day you'll leave me.

No. How can I leave you?

When you grow up and get married

Then you'll go to your husband's house.

I won't tal k to you!

Why are you blushing?

Someday soon we have to get you married.

I said I won't talk to you.

No mother wants her child to ever go away.

But it has to be done.

If you talk like this, I won't take you to my college program.

Such a difficult punishment!

I've waited years to see this day of joy.

But if you say, I won't go.

- Mother! - My princess!

Wish such functions would take place daily.

Seeing you after years.

- Please be seated. - Thank you.

Yes father?

Why have you come here? Why didn't you go to office?

You know I spent a part of my life in this college.

Wasted, not spent.

Go.

Respected guests and dear students...

You'll be glad to know today's function is being...

...presided over by the benevolent Mahendra Pratap.

I request Thakur Sir...

...to come to the stage and honour the gathering.

Now Sir will give away the degrees to the pupils.

Miss Renu Kapila.

And miss Kiran.

You'll be glad to know Kiran stood first in the college.

Bravo.

I thank the Principal and the college committee...

for honouring me with presiding over this function.

Evidently the successful students...

are stepping into a new life.

I bless them with success in every test of life.

At this moment, I can't forget Miss Kiran...

While she and her able professors are to be commended...

I would also like to appreciate her parents.

They created love for learning in their child.

The mother must be applauded more than the father.

Because a mother wields more inf uence on the children.

The lady would be very pragmatic and competent.

Who gave birth to this child.

It is such ladies who...

...bring honour to the nation and family.

I thank all present...

Good bye.

You praised my mother so I'd like you to meet her.

Sure. I'd like to meet her.

Mother...

She m ust have run home to share the good news.

Some other ti me. Tell me what are your future plans?

Joining MA?

- I will but privately. - Why not in college?

My mother educated me with great difficulty.

She slogged a lot. Now I want to work and serve her.

Bravo. Noble thought.

I'll personally find you a good job.

Here's my card. See me in my office in 2 days.

Thank you so much.

Don't even mention it.

- Yes father? - You're still here?

I was going to the bank thought I'd pick you up.

- Come on. - I need to encash a cheque first.

- Congratulations. - Than ks.

Someday give me a chance to thank you.

I've been wandering on this road for months.

Talk to me on the occasion of your grand success.

Mind your tongue. I don't ever want you to speak to me.

I know how to get my way.

I'll show that lawyer too.

I confess to the crime of not attending your college program

And appeals for forgiveness.

I had an important case in court

Then go and come back only after judgement.

But how can I leave the High Court?

I had a fu n ny d ream.

I am standing with accused and you've sued me for theft.

- What theft? - That's what I'd like t o know.

What have I stolen?

My beloved stole my heart

My beloved stole my heart

I am crazy about him

Dear nightingale... '

You haven't set eyes on my love

You'd fall for him if you did

Don't scold me

Hear him play the flut e

If he appears before me, I'll hide him in my eyes

I'll hold his hand and throne him in my heart

I wish he were always with me

Like a village belle with her pot

I have excellent news for you.

- Found me a job? - Yes, in this company.

- Rs. 300 per month. - 300!!

- Mother will be exhilarated. - Don't come for the letter.

- I'll send it across. - You're an angel!

I'll remain indebted for life.

If you must, be indebted to your capability.

You remind me of my son.

Like you, he was one in a million regarding education.

What happened to him?

It is said, you pay for your sins in your next birth.

But I got punished in this birth

A little error on my part destroyed my family.

Had he been alive, I'd have grand kids your age.

Consider me your grandchild.

Be happy.

May I take leave?

I say, good morning.

She looks in rage but at least looks at me.

I'm happy knowing I am in her sight.

You're back. It's best that you take your path.

This is my path and my destination right here.

I warn you to behave or...

- will you ask him to sue? - I must complain to Thakur!

That's what I was waiting for.

You'll say something so will I maybe things will work out.

Let go!

Gentlemen don't leave a girl's hand once they hold it.

Who are you? Let go!

Gentlemen don't leave a man's neck once they grab it.

Go home my dear. He's going to the hospital.

Let go! Don't you know who I am?

I know patriots like you well.

- Get warmed u p. - Ready.

Where are you running away?

Have something first. Cool buttermilk!

Beat a poor man gently.

Come forward sir.

What can we do for you?

- Sweet or salty? - He can't digest salt.

- Salt is fine. - Shall we begin?

Hope you won't give us another chance to serve you.

Doesn't matter. Now I'll adopt another approach.

You're in a good mood. What happened?

It will burn you up! I got a 300 buck job!

Lucky. Got a job as soon as you cleared BA

And I haven't yet got the girl.

- Talk to her mother. - Why don't you do it?

- I feel shy. - Am I shameless?

Not shameless but a lawyer.

Let go... just a thought... ask your servant to talk to mother.

Don't ever call him a servant.

I respect him like a father.

- Who is he? - I never asked him.

He's a very sad man.

Years ago, he tried to drown himself in the sea.

My father rescued him. Since then he's with us.

He loves me like a son.

- He has dreams for me. - You mustn't delay them.

Then let's go to him.

- What's the matter? - He's my old man.

- Good day. - May I say something?

The matter... you tell him.

- You tell him. - I know without your saying it

I like the pair of Suraj and Kiran.

Kiran says you must talk to her mother.

- He says it not me. - That's fine...

But you know I don't go anywhere

Tell your mother yourself.

Won't she hammer me if I tell her?

If that be so, won't she beat me up?

You are elder. Mother is younger to you.

Can a younger sister beat up her elder brother?

That is true.

- will you go? - Yes. I'll have to go.

Soft and fresh sweetmeats.

- Get warmed up. - Ready.

What? Work fast.

So many sweets?

You've got a Rs.300 job We should make 300 at least.

They are delicious.

Depends on your desire.

Your father made sweets for your marriage.

People broke their teeth but not the sweetmeat!

Say something.

What can he say? His mouth is stuffed.

I asked you to use your hands not your mouth!

Spit out the sweetmeat!

Don't do that. I'm so happy for Kiran...

I could distribute sweets to the entire city!

Then let me get start ed.

You'll kill her.

What have you given her?

Difficulties and adversities.

Time has healed the poor girl's wounds.

Do you want to refresh them?

Don't forget, you are charged with murder.

Murder!

You can give them nothing but problems.

If you want the welfare of your sister and niece...

Go away...

Suraj, my son this was the only secret of my life.

That I hid from all.

It hurts me to leave you.

But I can't help it.

Are you Kiran?

- Yes. - The Thakur sent me

He's asked you to come for the appointment letter.

Mother isn't home. Tell him I'll come tomorrow.

He's going out of town for a long period.

It concerns your job. Don't put it off.

It won't even take long.

Mother! Stop the car, it's my mother.

Stop!

Mother!!

Hurry up! I said hurry!

Stop!!

Brother, for God's sake save my daughter!

Somebody has abducted her in that car!

Come with me.

- Open the door. - I'm here to shut it.

The matter seems critical. We must inform the police.

My daughter... open the door!

Open the door!

There the door is open.

- You!! - Yes, it's me.

You never invited me.

But I made you my guest.

I never imagined you'd stoop so low!

Stay back. Let me go!

Don't worry. I'v e made every arrangement.

Nobody can get here.

Let me go! You depraved rascal!

Let me go!

Run out of abuses?

This is not a high that diminishes with abuse.

I beg you, please hav e mercy

I am showi ng mercy by holding your hand.

Help!!

What is the point in yelling?

Not even God can save you.

Mother!

Who...?

Who let you in? Who are you?

If you find out who I am you'll die of shame!

Wish you'd drowned before attacking the family honour!

What are you sayi ng? Who the heck are you?

Blinded? Don't you recognise your sister-in-law?

- Sister-in-law? - Yes.

Your sister-in-law Lajjo.

Who loved you like a mother.

Kiran is that brother's daughter whom you loved!

- Forgot all relations? - Relations?

Does living with one for 4 days make a relation?

I was an orphan and I am one.

But if you wish, now we can have a relation.

Thank God you're a woman.

And Kishor doesn't beat up women.

- Come on! - No...

- Leave my daughter! - I'll have to deal with you!

- Leave her! - Quiet!

There's little distance between you r life and death.

Now whose life is at risk?

Give it to me.

This isn't your cup of tea.

You are destined to die at my hands.

You might recall once you almost died at my hands accidentally.

If you don't come to your senses, I'll have to shoot you!

Where will you get the heart to shoot me?

You haven't seen the heart of a mother.

A mother can risk her life for her child.

Shut up and return my pistol!

Don't step forward! I warn you...

Don't step forward!

Nobody move!

If it's a sin to save the honour of an innocent girl from a thug

I admit to my guilt.

I committed the crime.

I accept the court's decision.

The accused is trying to tone down his crime.

His record proves that he's a habitual criminal.

He once served a 7 year sentence for murder.

If you wish, we can arrange a lawyer for you.

I am his defendant.

I seek permission to fight his case.

- Granted. - I can guarantee...

The accused is a good man.

Under no circumstances can he kill an innocent.

You'll be sorry to hear he has owned his crime.

I wish to throw light on the circumstances leading to murder.

We can't ignore that a hood's intentions forced him to shoot.

Suppose Shambhu hadn't reached in time to do his duty...

Which court or law could return honour to the unfortunate girl?

Honour is more precious than human life

Under such circumstances any man's blood would boil.

The accused is related to the girl.

Blood relation?

Kiran is his niece.

The accused Shambhunath is Lajwanti's brother!

Brother...

What is this I see?

This is his sister who has been in the hospital since then.

Sir, leave my brother.

He is innocent!

I killed him!

I swear, my brother is lying to save me!

That is wrong! Love for a separated brother has crazed her

If you love me, swear to say you committed the murder!

No, this is a lie.

It's a lie!

I plead that emotions not be allowed to waste court time

The case is clear.

Announce the sentence and provide justice.

The decision will be hailed after the jury's decision

In this incredible case of murder...

...the emotional outbursts of a brother and sister...

and wanting to save each other held back the court.

God's justice is unimpeachable.

Our laws are based on testi mony and evidence.

In the light of these...

The court feels the accused Shambhunath did kill Kishor.

But it has also been proven...

The accused didn't take this step on purpose.

He did this to save his young niece's honour from Kishor.

Thus under Section 304 of the Indian Penal Code...

the court sentences Shambhunath to 5 years rigorous imprisonment

What have you done?

What have you done?

Did we meet after years of separation only for this day?

It would have been better not to have met.

Don't cry.

Do you know today is Rakhi?

Sisters tie a rakhi on their brothers' wrists.

They pray for them.

How unfortunate am I...

...who gets her brother handcuffed.

- What.? - It's right.

A useless brother like me doesn't deserve your rakhi.

- It is right. - Talk outside the court.

Come on.

Don't cry.

The injustice I meted to you...

I won't mind if they sentence me to death.

Don't say that!

If I had adorned you with gems of knowledge rather than gold...

Your life wouldn't have been ruined

My immaturity is to blame.

Forget it.

What had to happen, did take place

I only pray to God...

the tragedy that befell me...

...should not hurt anyone.

We're being delayed. Let us go.

I want to say this before leaving...

If I have any property left build a school in the village.

Yes, brother.

Live long, my child.

Someday this sister might not be near you

She might be sad somewhere abroad

Lonely sister...

Wanting t o meet you

A brother might be separated from his sister?

My brother, let me tie a rakhi on your wrist

Is everything fine now?

Build a temple also.

The school is a tem le. Man can't see God without education.

It's time for school to break. Ring the bell.

- Get warmed up. - Right.

I don't u nderstand. Why are you seated? Go home.
