Original subtitles

Please forgive me sir. l am innocent! l have two younger children.

They will be alone without me. l am at your feet!

God bless you. Didn't you think of your children before?

Take care of him.

Khan...? God bless, Mohammad Khan. Of Rajasthan Police? When did you arrive?

By this train. - Come, let's sit by the fire

SSo what brings you here? - l have good news for you

What news? - Ujagar, the bandit and his gang...

they're coming to Fatehpur SSikri. - Confirmed news?

Nothing less. The news comes from his accomplice, Porkhiya

l say, inform the police that Ujagar SSingh is going to SSalim Chisti

Going where...? - To Fatehpur SSikri. That's where...

lies the mausoleum of SSalim Chisti. l'm going in to pay my respects

Porkhiya is one of his closest aides. Why should he inform the police?

Who doesn't dream of power and leadership?

Porkhiya can become gang leader only if Ujagar is out of his way

When is he coming? - SShould be in by daybreak

ln the name of The Giver, give a fakir something

Forgive me, l'm a poor slave of The Chisti. What can l give?

God bless. you don't recognise me? l'm lnspector yadav

Excuse me. Mr yadav, in this attire? - Mr Mujawar. Emperor Akbar it was...

who walked up to this court, his feet unclad. Why not me in a fakir's garb?

Brilliant! But fakir is he who is pure at heart, not one who dresses as one

Right you are, but today, need is such that l and my men are so attired

Ujagar the bandit, is visiting today. l'm here to tell you that

Bandit? Coming here? To take what? - He has taken all he could

His wife had made a wish. SShe has mothered a son. He's coming here...

to pay his respects. - Before The Giver...

accused and innocent all stand equal. - Maybe. But all l know is...

for all my wife's wishes for a son, all she has left me...

is a motherless daughter. - ln the name of The Giver...

not to despair, Mr yadav. - For what scant wish there's left...

my wife is no more. - Myriad are His ways. No knowing...

''Unto you...''

''Unto you, l come to renounce all l have''

''Unto you l come to renounce all l have''

''Unto you, l come to renounce all l have''

''Unto you, l come to renounce all l have''

''To make my promise good, l come to you''

''Unto you, l come to renounce all l have''

''Nothing worldly in the bazaars of the world l ever found''

''Whatever l have, in your court, l was given''

''To make my promise good, l come to you''

''Unto you l come to renounce all l have''

Why are children made to pay for the crimes of their parents?

Only The Lord knoweth His will

Now this child is an orphan. Adopt him, he is The Giver's boon

What are you saying? The son of a murderous bandit?

Olden belief. Of Angels is born the SSatan. The SSatan begets Angels

you have given him a home, now give him a name

The Chisti blessed Emperor Akbar with a son, and he named his son after Him

SSalim. But The Giver has many names. Give him any name

Krishna

yes, Krishna would be a nice name

SStop

Krishna...

SStop it

What are you upto? - l wanted to join in their game

They refused. - Why?

They say their parents forbid them. l am a bandit's son. My blood is tainted

Nonsense

Why don't you tell me the truth? - What...?

Was my father a bandit? Even if he was who killed him?

God bless you

SSon, you are too young now. l'll tell you everything in good time

your clothes are soiled. Now grannie is going to beat you

Did he go rolling in muck? - Go and wash up

What happened? - Got into a fight, what else?

A bandit's son will pick fights. you expect him to sing devotional songs?

Ma, if this is the way you talk, how will l face the world?

A hundred times over, l'll say it. Blood tainted once is tainted forever

SStop it, Ma

Babuji, why do they make kids sit on knees?

SSorry, my mistake

your knee is bruised. Ma, plaster the wound with turmeric paste

Why does he have to go out to play? There's school, there are chores at home

The place needs dusting, the dishes. - l did all that before l went out

Are you going to talk back? Go to the market

Buy onions and potatoes. Also bell plant, if it's fresh

Listen...

tell the grocer he is yet to deliver the sugar. Now stop gaping and move it

Babuji, can l go with Krishna? - What for?

Let her go, Ma. Go on, my child

Krishna, l'm coming with you. - No, go away

l'm walking on my feet. - Drop dead

Krishna, why do you get so angry? - Anything to be happy about?

Why, isn't this your house? - SSure, l'm the servant of the house

Doing the chores in his your own home makes you a servant?

My home! - Why not? Babuji loves you so much

l love you too. - Were it not for you and Babuji...

l would've left long ago

Why this sudden shower of love? - l can't bear to see you so lonely

Get married once more. l have seen a girl for you. As pretty as the Moon

Pretty-as-the-Moon, lovely-as-a-blossom, sugary-sweet, any more?

Don't you try laughing it away, SShiva. First ask me who she is

What's the point? l don't wish to marry. - SSilly, she's Parshram's granddaughter

What was her name...? yes Chanchal. - SShe's the one

But she's many years my younger. - SShe's no baby

Besides men are never too late to marry. - No, l don't want to marry

The what happens to this family? Will l live forever? Once l'm dead...

Without a lady, a house is haunted. - SStop it, Ma

ls this lineage to perish? The daughter belongs to another

SSomeday, she will leave for her home.

Don't you need a son to carry on the lineage?

God bless him, l have Krishna. - Krishna will propagate your family?

He isn't my bloodline. He's a killer's son

lf l'm tolerating him, it's because he is a servant

you keep cursing him for no reason. - Of course, l'm mad. But mark my words

SSomeday, he will show his true colours. - God preserve you

Look, l'm going back to work the day after tomorrow

Let's talk about this the next time l'm home

Go to bed

Make sure the door is shut before you go to sleep

Water the cows and look up the mare. Poor thing is suffering

Go to sleep, child

Krishna, my son...

Babuji, open the door

The mare.. - what happened to her?

SShe has foaled

Wonderful

Lovely foal, isn't he?

Handsome, isn't he? Name him Pawan, after the wind. He'll run like the wind

yes, why not?

We'll name him Pawan

Now l needn't make friends with the neighbours. Here's my playmate

Why are you laughing? This uniform doesn't suit me?

SSuits you, perfectly. you know how you look? Like a scarecrow in the fields

Krishna! What's going on? - l was cleaning up. l found this

That's a police uniform, you know? you've made a big mistake wearing it

you'll pay for this

My mistake

l'm ready to be punished. - Ready...?

your punishment is, you'll be sent to police school. That's where you stay...

till such time that you graduate as a police officer. Understand?

Children, you have left your homes to come to this training school

Here you will be given the most important lessons of life

''Krishna, what kind of a school is that?''

''you haven't been given a holiday in years?''

''ln my school, we have holidays every week''

''Babuji must've informed you about Grannie's death''

''Babuji has married again. He tells me she is my new mother''

''But there's nothing motherly about her''

''Krishna, when are you coming home? your foal has grown into a horse''

''And l''

your parents haven't come to share the joys of your success?

No. - l've been told that...

you are SShiv Kumar yadav's son. - yes

Don't mind this, son. But SShiv Kumar and l have worked together

As far as l know, he never had a son. He has an only daughter

you are right, sir. l'm not Mr yadav's son. l'm an orphan

Babuji...

Gauri...

How do l tell you how happy l am about your gold medal

l am proud

l feel as if l'm the one who received the gold medal

Much as l wanted to be there when you were being awarded the gold medal...

l took ill suddenly. l couldn't come. l hope you didn't feel bad

No Babuji, how could l feel bad?

Have you met Gauri? SShe has missed you every moment. When you left her...

she was such a little girl. - SShe's no little girl anymore

SShe has turned into a beautiful woman. - SSilly boy! SShe isn't Gauri

Bless her, she is my wife

SSorry about the mistake

Forgive me

SSo this is your Krishna?

yes, he's just as dapper. All he needs is a flute

l'd rather he never plays a flute. He'd become a pied piper for the girls

Where's Gauri?

SShe might have gone to the marketplace. SShe'll be back soon

Babuji, is my room intact? - Just like you left it

Let me stow my luggage away. My room must be waiting for me

Remember me?

That's right

Now smile

Put those arms down, you aren't scaring the crows away

They'll perch on your shoulders. - Enough, Gauri. SStop fibbing me

How have you been? - Just about all right

you live in that room? - No

When l'm tired of the chores, l lie down in your room

lt's so relaxing

What are you doing? This is no work for you

Who else will do it?

ln my dreams, you've always been a princess. you can't be here

Not a maidservant?

The maid will turn into a princess in no time

Now l'm here, l'll take care of everything

What are you doing?

SStop it! l say stop it, Krishna

No Krishna, that's no job for you. you're a police officer

These strong arms aren't meant for such lowly work

Here's the whole team! Am l being left all alone?

Krishna, now that you've been awarded a medal...

there's also something that l want to give you. Want to see? One minute

Here's your childhood friend, Pawan. Come on, take him

How have you been, friend?

Bless you

Make up with your friend

Come on Gauri

What's the matter, Gauri? - Nothing

Gauri, is there something you mean to say but you won't?

That's what it's like. - Do tell me what it is

Krishna, l feel stifled

l'm not going to live for long. - What's wrong with you?

For my sake...

All right, l'll tell you. But first, look away

Well, all right

Now tell me

you're laughing? - SSilly

The death you speak of, is actually life

lt's about starting a new life. - What do you mean?

you've left your childhood behind. Now you're an adult

you are a woman and you can become a mother

Mother...?

Won't live for long...?

SSilly

Gauri, you've been anxious for nothing. you should've asked someone

Who else but you to talk to? l can't possibly tell Babuji

And the new mother thinks l'm a maid, nothing more

ls she very cruel to you? - l can take anything

But she misbehaves with Babuji too. The only one she's nice to...

is Girivar Mathur. - Who's that?

He keeps dropping by. He's the officer at the police station

Hello Mr yadav. - Welcome Mr Mathur, God bless you

A yoghurt shake for him too, please? - Right away

l trouble you for no good reason, Mr yadav

But l can't stop listening to you. - Much ado about nothing

Here you are. - Laced with so much butter?

Without butter, yoghurt shake goes unconsummated

Well Mr yadav, yesterday you talked about this bandit you killed

yes, poor guy. There was a thick file on him

SStarted early in life, stealing the neighbour's fruit

To tell you the truth Mr yadav, fruit that's stolen is sweeter

But he went on and on. From fruit to cash to jewellery

Then murder, robbery. But the day he crossed my path l said, God help you

you even prayed for thieves and robbers?

God bless you, Girivar. By now, it has become a habit

Come on Krishna, where have you been? - Just been around

Who is he? - you haven't met Krishna

He's fresh out of training school, with a gold medal

Come, sit

But where did you take her? - What...?

God be with you, but Krishna and Gauri have been playmates since childhood

Not Gauri, l'm talking about Pawan. - l've made a gift of him to Krishna

But l had my eyes on that one. - SSo you better look elsewhere

you are...? - SSub lnspector Girivar Mathur

Much pleased to meet you. - Me too

My compliments on your graduation, the medal and also Pawan

Thanks. - But remember...

Just as a good rider is always on the lookout for good steed...

so also the steed is always eager to meet a good rider

Right you are. But the search for a rider for my horse ends with me

Enough Gauri, you must be tired now. Fill the rest of the water tomorrow

What's this sudden rush of empathy?

Little do you know how a mother loves. Listen, tomorrow is Brothers' Day

l've bought a brother's band and sweet. Tomorrow morning...

after you bathe, tie the band on your brother's arm and give him a sweet

Krishna should be here soon. Give him the brother's band

Take

Take it

What have you done?

Fool! you burnt your hands?

What's that?

How did your hands get burnt?

Tell me. - Never got burnt

l burnt them. - Why?

Gauri, why?

Last night she told me she wanted me to give you a brother's band

l felt as if she wants to destroy my dreams

And you burnt your hands? - Better my hands than my whole life?

What did you seek of God? - My heart's desire

What's your heart's desire? - l'm not telling you

Come on, tell me

Tell me

''My heart's desire...''

''if you know...''

''My heart's desire...''

''if you know...''

''you will laugh, you will pester me''

''lf l tell you, you will tease me...''

''if you know my heart's desire''

''you will laugh, you will pester me''

''lf l tell you, you will tease me...''

''if you know my heart's desire''

''you were too far away for me to tell you...''

''you were too far away for me to tell you...''

''the thought of it is so embarrassing''

''l'm simple at heart and you know that''

''l'm simple at heart and you know that''

''What will you get out of making me suffer?''

''But once you get to know my heart's desire...''

''you will laugh, you will pester me''

''lf l tell you, you will tease me...''

''if you know my heart's desire''

That's your body telling you that it's time

Time for what Qureshi? - Time to go

Go? Where to? - To where you're dying to go

Are you writing poetry? - Poetry and romance are closely related

l mean, you get on with the romance, and let me get on with my poetry

Not romance, it's just an excuse for making merry

And old Mr yadav's young wife makes for a pretty excuse

The one in my sights isn't the wife. lt's his daughter

What a beauty! Untainted. - But from what l understand...

you understand nothing. Come, l'll explain

Before you can pick the fruit, you must water the sapling

Then you irrigate the roots, get that?

Then God help you

Where are you off to? - To Fatehpur SSikri

l've been posted there

God be with you, but what's your hurry?

l'm supposed to report tomorrow. The train leaves in 10 minutes

Krishna, l have something to tell you. - Do tell me, Babuji

lt has to do with the times when l was posted at Fatehpur SSikri

One day, God be with him...

a colleague of mine came calling, and he told me that your...

God be with you, l mean your... - Krishna, where are you going?

l've been posted to Fatehpur SSikri

Bye Gauri

Bless you, son

Leaving in a hurry, even without seeing Pawan?

Pawan...?

Also someone else?

There's so much l want to say, but l can't quite say it

Bye

When will you be back?

SSoon

l'll write. you must write too

''lt isn't so easy to forget someone you love...''

''lt isn't so easy to forget someone you love...''

''the first words spoken in love''

''you're leaving me, but...''

''you're leaving me, but...''

''every moment, at every step l will think of you''

SSit

you might say that no sooner than you arrived, you were thrown to the wolves

But two of Porkhiya's accomplices have been spotted. you surely know Porkhiya?

Porkhiya the bandit? Wanted by the police for several years

Neither he nor any of his accomplices have ever been apprehended

And my superiors are insisting that we catch him

l can understand, sir. - lf an accomplice is caught...

we might make some progress. l want you to go after them

Take Karam-din with you, he knows the entire area

Very well, sir

No! He's our informer

He will lead us to Porkhiya's accomplices

Karam-din what is the matter?

you're feverish

Go back. l'll manage myself. - And leave you all alone?

lt's nearing nightfall. - Don't worry, l'll find them

you go back. - yes sir

Policeman...? - Greetings. Greetings, Mother

Mother, l'm a police officer. l lost my way in the dark

l need a place to rest for the night. l saw lights in your house

SSon, my house was always in the dark. With that ''Mother''...

you have lit up my dark home. - SStep in, son. SShe's my wife. Parvati

Parvati, let's have supper

SSon, we were about to eat. Join us. - No, excuse me

Fortunate are those who have guests at suppertime. More so, if he's like a son

That's enough. - Eat. you must've been hungry all day

What's your name, son? - Krishna

SSon, what are you thinking about? Eat

l was thinking of homes. Not walls, not people. Love is what makes a home

Mother, may l look up my horse? l'll go to sleep with him

Not out there, son. SSleep on the cot. - No, l'll make do on the floor

l'll sleep on the floor. l'm accustomed

This is where you will sleep

l have heard of a heaven at a mother's feet

l want to spend a night in heaven

Bless you, son

Enjoy yourself while you can, kid. you'll be rewarded for catching us

But remember, our friends aren't going to spare you

Are you threatening me because l'm a kid? Don't, please

''Dearest...''

''how are you?''

''l'm like l always was''

''l'm where l was, my dream is still where it was''

''Last night l dreamt of you''

''And those who go far away...''

''visit us only in our dreams''

''l yearn that the dream would go on forever''

''Who knows when l will see my beloved again''

''Every wish made at SSalim Chisti's mausoleum in Fatehpur SSikri comes true''

''For the wish l have made, tie a wish-knot at the mausoleum''

''When my dream comes true, l'll make an offering and l'll untie the knot myself''

Ujagar SSingh

lnspector yadav

you... at this hour? Are you looking for a criminal?

ls the mausoleum out of bounds for thieves and bandits?

Why would they come to a place of God? - 20 years ago, Ujagar came here

yes he did, with his wife and his son to pay his respects

And on his way out, he was killed by the police

yes, his wife fell down the stairs and died. He was killed by a policeman

The policeman was SShiv Kumar yadav? - yes, l remember it clearly

But Mr yadav was a wonderful man

He adopted the son of the bandit whom he had killed

The orphan...? Are you sure? - He asked me to name the child

l'm the one who named him. - Krishna

Excuse me, you never told me who you are

How can that be? How can men change like seasons?

Or maybe they could

Just like her grandmother! SShe'd talk to herself too

SSay, what's the matter with you? - Nothing at all, Babuji

Tell me, what's the matter?

lt's Krishna

l think he arrived this morning. His luggage is in his room

And he went away without even seeing me

SStrange! God be with him, he's here but he hasn't shown up?

How silly of me! l've been looking for you everywhere...

and l never even thought l'd find you here if nowhere else

Remember?

Krishna, what is the matter? - Nothing at all

you're hiding something from me?

Perhaps you aren't seeing Gauri anymore?

What a thing to say, Gauri! - Then why are you so different?

Why are you gloomy? - you'd rather not know

Unless l know, how will l share a sorrow with you?

l even told you what girls will hide from everyone. And you...?

ln Fatehpur l got to know that my parents rejoiced when l was born

They travelled to the mausoleum to pay their respects. That's where...

they died

My mother fell down the stairs to her death. And my father...

was killed by a policeman

Guess who the policeman was?

Babuji

Krishna, do you have vengeance in your heart?

l'm no stone, nor am l God. And blood is thicker than water

But of whom do l seek vengeance? l lost a father once

l don't want to lose him again

What pains me is why Babuji never told me all this

Must've thought you'd be sorry to know. - No. He never trusted me

Never trusted my genes

Don't talk like that, Krishna. - What l have to say hardly matters

What's true is true. - There's only one truth

Which? - Whatever you find in Gauri's eyes...

is true

Chanchal...

yes? - We're going to the marketplace

Come up here, quickly

yes...? - Come inside

Will you please tie my blouse? l can't quite reach around

What...? - Tie it, it's only a string

Do it

Why are your hands shaking? you aren't a boy, are you?

l don't understand... - Don't you know the language of eyes?

Krishna, look into my eyes and you'll find love begging to be loved

What are you doing?

Leave me...

for God's sake, let me go! you are Babuji's wife

l'm about your age

l beg you, for Babuji's honour! Let me go

For the sake of whose honour, the man who killed your parents?

The man who destroyed your world?

l can see vengeance in your eyes

His world lies before you. Plunder it

Not my love, what you just spurned was your life

l am going to ruin you

He doesn't seem to like any food. - What's come over him?

you ought to know about Fatehpur SSikri. - God bless you ! you know too?

l was apprehensive right from the day when he was posted to Fatehpur SSikri

But why didn't you tell him? - l tried, several times

At times, it was inopportune, at times my courage failed me

Nothing's lost yet. Talk to him, save him from his own self

l must. l hope he doesn't end up doing something drastic

Cook arum root today. Krishna loves it

Chanchal, what happened?

Will you stop crying and tell me what happened?

Who did this to you?

Why don't you speak?

SSpeak

What has Krishna done? - Ask him

Go on, embrace your beloved son

He found me all alone, he tried to rape me

l refused, and this is what he did to me

What are you saying?

What even the devil would be too ashamed to speak of! But not a bandit's son

Ever since he has come to know that you killed his father...

this scoundrel has been seething with vengeance

Cur! ls this how you take revenge?

All lies!

Honestly, Babuji! lt's all lies

All lies

All lies

Honestly, Babuji

lt's all lies! Trust me

Mark my words. SSomeday, he will show his true colours

Don't you dare call me your father! My mother was right

SSomeday, you'd show your true colours

By my dead mother, it's a lie

Then what is the truth? - Burn my tongue ere l speak the truth

May you burn in hell

Lock up this son of a snake! - What has he done?

l'm too ashamed to speak of it! He has tainted motherhood

What are you saying? - Chanchal is like a mother to him

He brought her to dishonour

Gentleman, have you got anything to say?

Why don't you speak?

SSpeak

Maybe your jaws are locked?

l'll help you open up

Lock him up

Please go home. l'll take care of everything

God help some fools

Now that you've lost face, all you can do is keep pacing up and down

What do you mean to say? - What you know already

The entire village is talking about the son of a bandit and Gauri

Don't even mention him and what with people, they always talk nonsense

Not nonsense, it's true. Get her married off as soon as you can

l can get her married off right tomorrow if there's a suitable boy

you needn't go hunting for a suitable boy. Get her married to Girivar

ls that a decision or an advice? - Who am l to decide in your stead?

ls there anything wrong with Girivar? - No, he's a nice boy

Then get her married to Girivar. - l'm not marrying him

Are you raving? - you heard me

Aren't you ashamed of talking back to your father?

Rather take a look at yourself. Nothing is hidden from me

lnsolence

Don't you forget you're talking to your mother

My mother is dead

l'll talk to Girivar right away

SSpare him. The gentleman won't eat that. He's having lunch with me. Fetch him

yes sir

Welcome, sit

First, eat a sweet

Come on brother, go on. you were an old friend

Won't you join in my celebration? Please

Oh l forgot, you're handcuffed. Never mind, l'll feed you

Won't you ask me what l'm celebrating? Tomorrow l'm getting married

Won't you ask me my bride's name?

you're going to love hearing this. Her name is Gauri

Aren't you congratulating me? l may give Gauri your regards too

SShe will be delighted

lf you want a present delivered to Gauri, l can arrange that

Gift? l would like to make you a gift. But l'm helpless

None of my hands are free

Qureshi, undo the handcuffs

Let me see for myself what gift he has in store for me

l can pay you for this insolence. But l won't soil my hands

Because tomorrow, with these hands, l am to accept Gauri

No need to say anything, l've heard everything

What have you heard? - Tomorrow you're marrying Girivar

Girivar gave me the news himself, he expected a compliment

lf you want to stay at the receiving end of the news, here's something...

even Girivar doesn't know. Tomorrow he's coming to marry my corpse

Fetch the bride, the auspicious moment is passing

your bridegroom is here. Hurry up and get dressed

your refusal to marry will kill your father

Pawan ! Come on friend

Get him! Don't let him escape

SStop it you fools

Krishna, l'm tired. Let's rest here for a while

All right

The sight of Girivar waiting to marry me...

was like the sight of death sitting in wait

Then l saw you on the horse and it was like life reaching out for me

Let's sit here for a while

There

Take the bivouac

Run Pawan

SSplit up

Find them

Hide here and wait for me

Which way did he go? - That way

Gave me the slip. But l'm not going to spare him

Why not? The one he has kidnapped isn't only my daughter

SShe's Girivar Mathur's bride too. - By my mother's milk, l'll catch him

Even if it's the last act in my life. - He could cast his lot...

with the wild beasts. What if? - Wild beasts?

Bandits. - He'll surely cast his lot with them

And God help you ! Like father like son. A bandit's son will become bandit

Krishna, you abducted me, l still can't believe this

But l don't know whether l did the right thing

Why? - ln our country...

it's the daughter upon whom the onus lies for bringing the family to honour

And your father... - Would marrying that rascal...

bring honour to my father? - Maybe not, but a wedding is a wedding

Now the whole world will say that Babuji's daughter has eloped

lf it's the world he cares for, then it's his choosing

Do you know how vast my world is?

Want me to tell you? - Tell me

SSo vast! With you by me, my world is with me

SSilly. Look, if not for the world, then for our own sakes...

for the sakes of our children, marry we must

What's taking you time? l'm all dressed for the wedding

And you look handsome anyway. - But a priest is needed...

to recite the hymns. - l'll recite the hymns. l know them

Listen, here goes... l and you...

you and l are united

Witness be Lord Vishnu, witness be the priests of the religion...

witness be The Lords of Earth, blessed be this union

Lady! Do you hear me?

Our Krishna is here

Look, our Krishna

My respects. - Bless you, son

Mother

May you be happy always, son. l've nothing more to ask of God

This is Gauri, your daughter-in-law

Pay your obeisances

Bless you

Be happy always, may you mother many children

SShe is so pretty. When was the wedding and where?

lt's a long story, we got married in the temple

you could've gotten married here. We could've performed all the rituals

Never too late, is it? Now that the bride has come home...

you can get on with all the rituals, throw a feast. ln the meantime...

let's do some catching up, father-and-son. Come on son

My sweet child

What a thing to happen ! A police officer on the run like a bandit

At long last, God gives me a son, and now...

l told you everything, l've concealed nothing

But you married on the sly, didn't you? you denied us the celebration

But l've brought her home. - And you're staying too, aren't you?

No, the police are after me like a pack of mad dogs. lf l stay on...

you'll get in trouble. - Don't worry about me, son

Besides, you didn't commit any crime. - you might think that way

By now they must've charged me with robbing the jewellery Gauri was wearing

l must return her jewellery. - But how?

l'll find a way. SSomehow l will

What's this? - Dewdrops

Then shower it on flowers, why waste it on thorns?

Dew from a bride's tresses can make flowers blossom amid thorns

Let's see how the flower blossoms

Not now, take a bath first. l bathed at dawn

Where...? - Come on

Look

lsn't it beautiful?

yes, pretty

Very pretty

you're supposed to take a bath. - l'd rather bathe in my bride's dew

l'm shy. - Of whom?

ls anyone seeing us? - They... the birds

Birds? - yes

Good. They can go and tell their mates that they discovered another couple...

who need no more than the earth for a bed under the skies to make love

Great, so go and take a bath first

''The season of love is come''

''There's music in the air...''

''in the season of love...''

''How rare this solitude''

''How rare this solitude''

''Let's make love to our hearts' content''

''Let's make love to our hearts' content''

''Like lovebirds, let's make love''

''Let's make love to our hearts' content''

''Like lovebirds, let's make love''

''Let's make love to our hearts' content''

''ln the fires of passion...''

''what pleasure is burning?''

''The mystery is unravelled...''

''to only those who are consumed...''

''How can the thirst of lifetimes...''

''be slaked in moments...?''

''How can the thirst of lifetimes...''

''be slaked in moments...?''

''Try to quench...''

''this thirst only increases''

''you'll know when you're in love''

''Two eyes are poised to strike a heart''

''Two eyes are poised to strike a heart''

''Fly away naughty bird, l'm about to make love''

''Let's make love to our hearts' content''

''Love's law is strange''

''When in love...''

''gone is the peace of mind''

''and yet in love they indulge''

''This is how l want to make love...''

''This is how l want to make love...''

''with mischief in my eyes...''

''and a fire in my heart''

''ln the sweet fire two hearts will burn''

''We'll swear to live and die together''

''We'll swear to live and die together''

''Fly away, naughty bird l'm about to make love''

''Let's make love to our hearts' content''

He's the policeman who caught two of us

Take him to Dadu

He was my informer

The police dogs might get away, not the police informer

lf you don't trust me, you can ask the dead man

Who's this girl?

your wife?

The boy looks innocent. Why did you pick him up?

Don't go by his looks, Dadu. He's the policeman from Fatehpur...

who nabbed two of our men

Then he isn't so innocent. A man who can catch two of my men...

must be a man of worth. Policemen were after me

Now they have let their dogs loose. Boy, l say you throw up the job

And come and join me. - No, never

you refuse to obey Dadu? - you want me to join hands with you?

SSo that you can play me up as a hostage someday?

Are you raving boy? Hold your tongue

Have you forgotten Ujagar SSingh?

Ujagar SSingh wasn't killed by the police. you had him killed

you found Ujagar SSingh's name in the files at Fatehpur?

No, his name is written here

He was my father

Ujagar's son?

SSo much the better

The ironsmith's son become ironsmith

The goldsmith's son become goldsmith

And the bandit's son?

l say, what are you doing with the police? Join us

No, l've cast my lot with the law. Until my death

Dadu, look. - Give me my booty

No

Are you out of your mind, boy? Are you stopping a bandit from loot?

That isn't ours. lt belongs to someone else. l must return it

Consider it returned

Let go

Beware

Drop your guns, everyone! Else l'll blow his brains out

Drop your guns

Give me the jewellery

Take your fingers off that trigger. He's my brother

Brother? SSo much the better. Get up

Get this Krishna, from now on, death is after you

Thanks be to God a million times that we escaped with our lives

you were to have been saved. A policeman was with you

How long can even a policeman risk his life?

This jewellery is the cause of all the trouble. Until such time...

that l have returned these to Babuji, some problem or the other...

is bound to crop up. - And therefore?

l'm going to return these to him. SSomehow. you stay here

All right, but come back soon. l'm going to be lonely

l'll be back before sundown

Until then, let this protect you. - you expect me to use that?

Do you forget that you are a policeman's wife?

Pawan, stay here. l'll be back

What is it? - Krishna was spotted

ln the marketplace. - When?

A while ago. - Come on

That's his horse

SSo Krishna hasn't made a getaway. Come on

What happened to you?

What's this? - Girivar's bullet

How did he get to know? - Thanks to Pawan

l told you to stay

you can't stay in one place?

SStop it

Bullets

He brought you here despite getting shot so many times

Why didn't you tell me?

But how could you, my friend?

What are you doing?

l'm not going to let him die in pain. l can't bear to see Pawan so helpless

l'm going to set him free

Else, he will suffer as the wild beasts tear him apart

Forgive me, friend

''Come unto me...''

''all my life is yours''

''Come unto me...''

''all my life if yours''

''There's nothing l value more''

''ls sorrow all there is in store for you all your life?''

''ls there so much suffering in life?''

''Come unto me...''

''all my life is yours''

Why are people afraid of death? lt's life that's scary

At every turn, a new sorrow lies in wait

Why not think of dawn at the end of every dark night?

lt's easy to amuse yourself with thoughts

Not life

''Why be unhappy about sorrow's dark night?''

''why be unhappy about sorrow's dark night?''

''Why lose out to your woes?''

''Light for yourself a torch to light up your way''

''Come unto me...''

''all my life is yours''

''ls sorrow all there is in store for us all our lives?''

''your love is so benevolent''

''The world is so merciless''

''your love is so benevolent''

''The world is so merciless''

''My heart is scarred with betrayals''

''How can l tell you how cruel life is?''

''Come unto me...''

''all my life is yours''

Listen...

l was saying... - Tell me

SStrange, you got something to say that you won't say?

What is the matter? Tell me. - l'm shy

What about? Remember telling me all that before we were married

Now we're man and wife. - That's why...

SSilly, are there any secrets between man and wife?

Little secrets are what makes romance last and preserves some dignity

SStop talking like my grandmother and tell me what it is

Not grandmother. Just mother

Mother...?

Really?

One more. - No, enough

Feed her, a bellyful. - Don't be jealous. lt's been so long...

since l ate something she cooked. - When did l stop you? Eat, more

Mother, make sure she eats lots. Because, she isn't alone anymore

Thanks be to God a million times

Eat, to your heart's content. - Make sure she does all the chores

That way, she'll stay fit. SShe and... - The son who's coming

That's why l brought her over. SShe's staying here

l'll visit you from time to time. ls that all right?

Has to be right

ln the legends, when his queen was carrying sons...

didn't the god-king banish her to the forests?

What are you saying? The queen was banished to the forests

And you are coming home from the forests. lsn't this your home?

Home it is. - May you live forever in marital bliss

What happened?

l'm in pain

Listen...

What happened, lady? - Our home is blessed

SShe is in labour. Get the Apothecary. - Right away

Two bandits are headed right for our house

Must be the ones...

who have been looking for us

Hide me, somewhere

They mustn't get to know l'm here. - Don't you worry

Come my child. - Careful

Don't be afraid. - ln the barn

SSpread that rug

Come on

Be brave

Hey old man

What do you want? - Don't act naive

Where's that girl? - No girl over here

My wife and l are the only ones here. - ls that so?

And your adopted son and his wife? - you are mistaken. No one here...

but me and my wife. - SSo you won't say?

l told you ! There's no girl here. - Talk

Where is the girl? - l told you, there's no girl

you won't talk? - There's no one here

There's nothing in there. That's just the barn

Out of my way, old man. - There's nothing in there

Are you all right?

Look, a son. Just like a blossom

How's my daughter-in-law? How are you my child?

My boy! Just like his father. - Where are the bandits?

They picked up their dead and they ran. - We can't stay here any longer

l have been cause of this trouble. l must take Gauri and the boy away

Not in this condition. - Please try to understand

They carried their dead home. Their leader is going to be incensed

We shouldn't be staying here

Who was it? - Krishna

He kicked him mercilessly, until he died

How come you have stayed alive? To bring the news to me?

No need to be afraid. l just threw it away

Get a hold on yourself, Gauri. What's there to cry about?

Ever since he was born, l've been dreaming of snakes

l get such nightmares, l'm so afraid

you're so brave. Must you let a dream scare you?

No, l'm afraid of my superstition. Remember? At the mausoleum...

we made a wish. The Giver gave us our wish. But we still haven't made good...

our promise. We haven't yet paid our respects

you can go any time. Who can stop us from paying our respects? No one

Gauri, let's rest here for a while before proceeding to the mausoleum

The fort you see afar...

that's The Chisti's shrine

Nice place. But why do l feel so anxious?

l'm anxious too. Maybe because...

for the first time, l did something without telling you

What...? - l wrote a letter. To Babuji

Then your anger is no more

And maybe my father isn't angry anymore either

Gauri, l have written saying that l wish to turn myself over to the police

After me, there mustn't be another Krishna, no more orphans

No more heretics pronounced by birth. - What are you saying, Krishna?

Will you making this sacrifice just because of your love for me?

''Unto you...''

''l come to renounce all l have''

''Unto you l come to renounce all l have''

''Unto you l come to renounce all l have''

''To make good my promise, l come to you''

''Unto you l come to renounce all l have''

''Not all the torture...''

''makes me weak''

''Not all the torture...''

''makes me weak''

''Not all the torture...''

''Not all the torture...''

''Not all the torture...''

''makes me weak''

''Not of the world...''

''nor the horrors of the world...''

''make me afraid''

''Not of life...''

''nor of death...''

''lf anything, l live in God's fear''

''Unto those that seek to torment me, the fear of God''

''Not all the torture...''

''Not all the torture...''

''Not all the torture...''

''makes me weak''

''Unto you, l come to pay my respects''

''Unto you l come to renounce all l have''

''Unto you l come to renounce all l have''

''Unto you l come to renounce all l have''

''your world and mine, that has been plundered''

''your world and mine, that has been plundered''

''l pray, do not look away from me''

''l pray, no more mishaps''

''Here is another life that has blossomed...''

''let not this blossom wilt, l pray''

''your world and mine...''

''your world and mine, that has been plundered...''

''l seek to build again''

''l seem to build again''

''Unto you l come to renounce all l have''

''To make good my promise, l come to you''

''To make good my promise, l come to you''

''Unto you l come to renounce all l have''

Take him in

Come

Why did you stop? Come upstairs

l'm not going up

l'll live in Krishna's room

What's left of that room? - Much...

of memories, of dreams. l'll pretend l'm near him

As if you could've lived with him! And you've disgraced us

you have borne his sin and you still pine for him?

Far worse is the sin of the one who drives an innocent to murder

Never say die

SShe's seeing that rascal every day. And my poor father...

if not me, who's going to tell him?

Got myself a backache. Finish the paperwork

l'm going home. - Whose...?

God help... - Those who do not understand

Mr Girivar Mathur, what exactly do you want?

God be with you

He will be here too. ls he a bit late today?

SStop

SStop

Let him come. Let me witness passion's naked dance...

that has destroyed our lives! - But...

No answers necessary

Everything lies before me, like an open book

Bandit's son makes bandit...

born of tainted blood...

Krishna

And so virtuous a woman she was whom he tried to rape! What a shame

At that very moment, l should've killed him

SStop! Or l'll shoot

you aren't human, you are sin personified

And you died the day you bartered my dignity for gratification

He is coming

Remember, l wish to see the naked dance of desire

Forgive me darling, l'm a bit late

Why are you so cross?

What is the matter?

you were never apprehensive of my touch

No! The woman l love is in tears? Who has hurt you?

The game...

is over, Girivar

l see your Janus face

And now, the world will see

l'll strip you for everyone to see

you don't even know me, yadav. - God help you

Who doesn't know a snake in the grass?

you seduced my wife, you have destroyed my world

Do you intend to kill me? - With no regrets whatsoever

Killing vermin is no sin

Why do you hesitate? SShoot

This is what sets us apart. you still can't bear to see her dead

And l can break her neck without a second thought

Drop the gun

Drop it

Don't do it

Let go

l'm damned

Forgive me

God be with you

Arrest Mr yadav. He killed his wife, with this gun

Why are your hands shaking? - SStop talking nonsense

And put it away. lt bears Mr yadav's fingerprints

yours too, sir

And God help the naive

Forgive me for asking this sir, but did Mr yadav really kill her?

Maybe you didn't hear what l told you

The murder was committed by Mr yadav. - Maybe, but he's a policeman too

He was. l am. That's the big difference Qureshi

l understand, sir. - lf you open your mouth...

l won't spare you either. - l'll never open my mouth

But someone knows without being told. - Who are you talking about?

God. Maybe you've heard of him?

Qureshi, Gauri isn't at her house. Where has she gone?

Ever since Mr yadav was locked away Gauri has moved in with Mr Ramchander

But what are you doing here? - God help the naive

Keep standing

Just as well that you're here. Else we'd be looking for you everywhere

What is the matter, sir? - Nothing special

Charged with murdering Mrs yadav

Handcuff him

What is the matter? - SSir, l have served the law for years

l will never oppose the operation of the law. l will walk to the lock up

l pray that l'm not handcuffed. - Okay. No handcuffs. Take him away

your revolver

Mr yadav, now you're beyond the pale of suspicion. The real culprit...

has been identified. - How did you know about Girivar?

From Constable Qureshi. He shot Qureshi dead and he's a fugitive now

Please let me out on parole, for only two days

l'll present myself to you after two days, l promise

By then l will have nabbed Girivar. - l can vouch for Krishna

Very well

Not even begging at my feet will get you anywhere

your crimes are so heinous...

even the merciful Lord will think twice before forgiving you

Girivar has never apologised, nor will he ever

SScoundrel! - No Babuji

l won't let you be tainted with the murder such a lowly creature

l have scores to settle with him. - No Krishna! Listen to me

l'm unarmed

SShoot

lf you're man enough, drop the gun

One for Pawan

Why are you making me suffer?

SShoot

l'm not going to kill you

l'm leaving you to the vultures

lf you're man enough, shoot

your father was a bandit

you are a bandit's son

SShoot

you are a bandit too

you're a bastard

Boy, when surrounded by Death, not even the bravest can lift a finger

Aren't you one of the braves?

you didn't even use your hands to kill my brother, l hear

Used your legs to kill him, did you?

l'm not going to use my hands to kill you

lt's going to be my horse's hooves

With every hoof-beat, you will scream...

as you think of my brother

And who's he to you?

your father's assassin? Or your wife's father?

Porkhiya, you and l had much in common

you, the murderer and l, the executioner

Officers never stop being haughty, do they?

Bring him along

Mother, please take of the boy

Krishna... - SStay back Gauri, for my sake

And stay put. l'll be back. - But they will...

Afraid for my life? Have you no faith in your husband?

Faith can survive any assassin. l shall return

SSee for yourself the policeman's end

Bandits never die a death like this one

Krishna, the bastard! He will die under horses' hooves

Let him pass

Hey Mr yadav, use this to cut your bonds

No Babuji! Go back

Dadu, Krishna and yadav have disappeared

Where can they go? Must be hiding, somewhere in the crags

Why did you do this, Babuji? - With my hands...

l orphaned you

How could l let your son be orphaned?

God...

be...

with you

Babuji, l wasn't orphaned then

Now l am an orphan

Unfortunate as l am, never did l repay your love

And for the second time, l have lost a father

Comb the crags. Drag out the dog

you don't hear me?

What are you waiting for? Move it

No...

No Krishna
