Cut the upper... Stop.

Come on out.

Out.

Yes...

Jai Shriram!

Stay back! Stay back.

Yes Saab?

Don’t come closer.

Corona is everywhere.

We’ve the permission, sir.

We’re going to Surat.

What do you do?

We’re sanyasis.

We serve our religion.

What else could we do?

Arey… Sadhu baba…

This disease is so dangerous.

Corona. You know, right?

People are dying.

We need to stay alive to be able to save our religion.

Show me.

How are you going to serve our religion in Surat?

It is the most important rite of our religion, Sahab.

Mother passed away.

I can’t even perform her funeral rites because of this pandemic.

At least…

I want to see her one last time.

Fine…

Your name?

Kalpavruksh Giri.

Lower the mask.

Kalpavruksh Giri.

Kalpa-vruksh. Your name?

Sushil Giri.

Okay.

You may go.

Be careful.

Jai Shri Ram.

Jai Shri Ram.

Thank you...

Let them go.

Be careful.

Take care Sadhu Baba...

Control room 3014

It's an emergency.

Control room 3014... It's an emergency.

Where is everybody?

Hello...Police control room, Palghar.

PI Hemant More here.

Were you sleeping?

There's been a riot in Gadchinchli village near Palghar check naka.

I need the force right now. -Okay... Copy...

What are you doing?

Were you sleeping?

A riot has broken out in Palghar.

Leave.

Hello.

Police control room Palghar calling.

Yes, control room.

A riot has broken out in your Gadchinchli village.

Two sanyasis have been attacked.

It's an emergency.

I'll be right there.

Hey...

Turn around.

Palghar check post.

The crowd is out of control, Sir.

We need more forces.

Oh God!

Yes... Right away!

Sadhus...?

Let's go...

Don't break the law...

Don't force us to open fire.

You wouldn't dare...

We've already killed the other one. Now it's his turn.

It's a gang of kidnappers.

Do they look like they abduct children?

Just look at their clothes.

Stop it please...

Why are you doing this?

"May everyone be happy..."

"May everyone be rid of all diseases."

May Prabhu Ramchandra grant you wisdom.

When did Saheb wake up?

Lock the gate.

What happened, Saheb?

No problem, I'm fine.

Okay, sir.

Eknath...?

In my Thane district...

In Palghar...

Two innocent sadhus were killed.

They were bludgeoned to death.

And my Shiv Sainik...

For the past ten days...

Is in deep slumber.

No Saheb, it was a misunderstanding.

Don't give me an official statement.

Not to me.

Not just me... Everyone thinks that way...

Who is everyone?

Tell me.

Those with whom you have formed your government?

Liberals?

Or leftists?

For ages they have had an aversion to the saffron.

What about you staunch Shiv Sainiks?

Saheb, you're right but...

The villagers mistook them for a gang of kidnappers. -Gang?

Two sadhus make a gang?

What if there had been a group of 5 or 6 sadhus?

You would've called the military? -No Saheb...

I think...

They were wearing saffron clothes.

That is why...

That is why they were killed.

This saffron is the pride of our party.

This saffron is the discipline of the Sanatan Hindu religion.

This saffron was the dream of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.

By killing those innocent sadhus...

For a mere ministership...

You peddled this saffron!

What is it?

What happened?

Are you alright?

Nothing...

The death of 2 sadhus in saffron robes makes no difference our new friends.

But it matters to Shiv Sena

We must appoint an SIT.

We don't need to ask anyone else...

This is a matter of Hindutva. Kidnappers...!

Mistaken for kidnappers?

What's going on? They were Sadhus.

Shinde Saheb is inside.

Something is up.

Why will our allies look into it?

Palghar sadhus...? Hindutva is not on their agenda.

They are right in their position.

When are we going to take the right stand?

Dada...

Just imagine if Balasaheb were here today...

He would have been in Palghar right now.

He would have asked for justice for every drop of blood that was spilled.

What were they doing there so late at night?

Their mother passed away. They were on their way to Surat.

What happened?

Impossible!

We have to consult our new allies for everything...

Did our 'New Saheb' canvas for us?

I just don't understand.

Babar Saheb...

You see what's going on?

Ministers have zero say here... -Bharat Sheth, sit.

Shinde Saheb...

What is going on?

Those sadhus who died in Palghar will they get justice or not?

Shahaji Bapu what is our religion?

I'll tell you.

Alliance religion!

Which we have been forced to accept.

Whether two sadhus die in Palghar or the entire Hindu religion is annihilated.

'Alliance religion' will have the final word.

No...

The rampant conversion of tribals in villages.

Should be made illegal.

That's when such incidents will stop.

One hundred and seventy.

One hundred and seventy people were arrested.

Our people...

Bludgeoned the two sadhus in saffron clothes to death!

Our people.

Our people.

Only their names and surnames are like ours.

They have changed their Gods long ago.

Bharat Sheth...

What if a father of the church...

or a maulvi had been killed?

The lads in Mumbra would've raised hell with their mourning.

Would our 'Alliance religion' been just as calm?

Alliance religion...

Does it apply only to Shiv Sena or...?

Are the other two parties a part of this category?

Someone needs to explain this to our Saheb.

You see...

Our Saheb is too naïve.

Mama, what are you saying? -He is naïve, isn't he?

Compared to him the other politicians are old hands.

Old hands?

How many such old hands...

Did Balasaheb have kneeling in front of him?

Had Balasaheb's chest been slit open...

There would've been Ram Mandir in it!

Isn't it, Bharat Sheth?

We're here, cursing those who are building the Ram Mandir!

The sadhus died in Palghar.

What did this 'Alliance religion' do? -Thorve!

Not just in Palghar.

Shiv Sena's birthplace...

In Dighe Saheb's Palghar!

Dada...

Not only two sadhus in saffron were killed in Palghar....

Shiv Sena was murdered there!

Absolutely right!

Shinde Saheb, tell me the truth.

Had Dighe Saheb been here today...

And...

Sadhus wearing saffron would have been killed....

Then? -Then?

Dada...

Naresh ji tell them...

What can I say?

The saffron was so respected in Anand Ashram.

What would Dighe Saheb have done?

He would have killed them all.

Killed them all!

Alakh Niranjan!

Saheb…

Do your duty...

Nitin doctor…

Two cups of tea for them.

No thanks, Saheb.

No tea for us.

Obviously, they don’t want tea.

It’s time for their drink.

Don't I know what you hide in those bags?

Uddhavrao…

Yes, Saheb?

Get two envelopes for them.

Yes, Saheb.

Saheb…

They are dummies.

They’ll take the alms from us...

And go straight to the liquor shop.

Check their bags... I'm sure you'll find bottles in there.

Just say yes, I'll check them for you.

I swear Saheb, they will go straight to...

Move your hand.

Move your hand.

Malvankar, how is it always you at the end of the stick?

Gotya...

Yes Saheb? Give me the envelopes.

Saheb...

The respect I just showed...

Wasn't to them.

The saffron robes that they are wearing.

It was for that.

Who told you?

Who told you...

They'll buy liquor with this money?

I've seen it so many times in Hindi films.

These filmy people have tainted our saffron colour.

Sadhus in saffron are thieves and robbers.

Bearded Fakirs... Khuda Key Bandey!

The father in the church is a messenger of God!

And our mantriks...

Are possessed by spirits?

If we don't respect our religion...

Others won't spare any time in humiliating it.

Saheb...

Saheb there's big trouble.

What is it, Naresh?

Why are you raging?

Saheb!

There's something brewing in Atmaram's building.

Yes Saheb.

Atmaram's building?

Have you started constructing buildings like Ravi Phatak?

No Saheb...

I'm just a watchman there.

Saheb...

That Father...

He is making people take some kind of oaths on the fourth floor.

They are placing their hands on some kind of sacred books.

Stop!

Stop!

Saheb...

There's no point in killing this Father.

He is working for this religion.

He has even travelled across the oceans for it.

There's actually a lot to learn from him.

Father...

Go...

Suppose...

If I came to London...

In my saffron robes...

And hollered "Become Hindu... Become Hindu..."

Out on your streets.

You white folks...

They would not spare me.

They will kill me.

But I'm letting you go.

This is what my Hindu religion has taught me.

Sanatan Hindu Religion!

What do I do with you?

What is so wrong?

You choose to listen to this priest?

You're relinquishing such an ancient religion?

We are fortunate.

Fortunate to have been born as Hindus.

Do you know why?

Because we never had to holler all over the world like them.

To spread our religion.

We never threatened to kill anyone...

Never forced anyone to convert to our religion.

We were always happy in our land.

We're happy.

We'll always be happy.

These unsatisfied souls found their way here.

Not looking for spices...

They wanted to trade in humans like us.

I'm sorry Father but it is a fact.

Devram...

Just by...

Placing your hand on the book, you will never absorb the wisdom within.

It needs to run in your blood.

Geeta...

Runs in our blood.

You're Sambhaji, aren't you?

Yes, Saheb.

You are converting your religion?

You are converting your religion?

He was skinned alive.

Eyes gorged out, body butchered...

That's what Aurangya did to my Shambhu Raje!

He chose death...

Over relinquishing his religion.

You may change your religion today.

They will go back to where they came from.

And here...

We'll kill each other in the name of religion.

Today you might change your religion.

Soon a day will come...

Down the years one of your descendants will ask himself

Who am I?

That day they will declare it to the world.

I am Hindu!

I'm Hindu!

I'm Hindu!

What mistake did my Shiv Sainiks commit?

Tell me?

I'm Hindu.

That's all Anand said, didn't he?

What is wrong in it?

What is Hindutva?

Tell me, what is Hindutva?

In the sword of a Maratha...

In a brahmin's lock of hair....

In a gardener's vegetables. In a potter's clay.

In the shepherd's staff...

And in the iron fist of a Matang... Therein lies Hindutva!

The strength of the tight embrace of all the clans and castes...

Therein lies Hindutva!

But now...

It is time to demonstrate our strength.

Time for all Hindus to come together.

Tomorrow, my brave tiger of Thane...

Is going to Ayodhya with thousands of Shiv Sainiks.

To offer karseva...

My advice to them is to return only after demolishing the structure.

What?

If my Shiv Sainiks achieve this...

Everyone in Maharashtra

Should take out processions to honour them!

Jai Shri Ram!

We swear in the name of Ram...

We will build the Mandir right there!

Dighe Saheb...

Ayodhya is a thousand kilometres away.

But you went there all the way to achieve this feat!

How about what is happening right under your nose here?

Don't talk in riddles. It creates more confusion.

Just come to the point.

Babri in Ayodhya is done.

Who will liberate the Haji Malang in Thane?

Not Haji Malang. Call it Shree Malang!

Gokhale! Best keep your Pune sarcasm at bay.

These problems are not solved by just asking, "When...?"

We'll begin today.

Tomorrow everyone will follow suit.

And then it will be set in stone.

Anand Dighe has one rule.

That which you can do tomorrow; do it today.

That which you can do today; do it right away.

Jai Shri Malang!

No Shelar, this is not a normal movement.

I know Anand Dighe just too well.

Given what happened in Ayodhya...

We can't take this lightly.

If we make a mistake this time.

Not just a suspension...

They'll hang us!

Look, it is red.

I believed mine would be saffron.

A Shiv Sainik's blood has to be saffron.

Only saffron!

Saheb...!

Jai Shri Malang!

Change the headline.

Change tomorrow's headline.

Ashwini madam, change tomorrow's headline. -Why?

Write...

'First ever NSA arrest in Maharashtra, Anand Dighe!'

Put a photo of him bleeding. On the front page.

Bleeding?

Yes, he has got 11 stitches!

Eleven stitches...!

And...

Write under it...

There's at least one gutsy man left in Maharashtra to fight for Hindutva.

Write...

How can the National Security Act meant for terrorists

be applicable to Anand Dighe?

Nandu calm down...

Calm down?

After reading this?

Saheb has been kept in Nashik jail.

They think...

We cannot reach him.

Even if we make a human chain...

It will stretch from Thane to Nashik.

Could we ever forget about him just because he has been kept away?

They bashed Saheb's skull.

They have done their job.

It's time for us to do ours.

Saheb has been kept in Nashik jail.

But here in Thane...

We won't let the government be at peace.

As long as Dighe Saheb is in jail...

We’ll go on a fast unto death.

Hari Bhau...

Look at Kamlesh.

He needs to be put on saline already.

They are too young to fast like this.

Even if Kamlesh starves to death.

This fast will go on till Saheb is released.

Warn Haribhau Pashte.

I won’t let him get away with it so easily.

He provokes the boys for no reason.

Forget about Haribhau.

Speak to Lotan Master, at least.

The Master is the one behind this.

He and Haribhau are instigating everyone.

I know all about them.

We need to think outside of the box.

Tell me…

How is your rapport with Pawar Saheb?

Our Pawar?

Of course.

What about him now?

If Pawar Saheb decides,

This case can turn around.

I asked you to think out of the box.

You're breaking the box itself. -Saheb, he is a senior leader.

He can have you released in a day.

Yes, he can.

And tomorrow he'll say,

"Join our party."

What am I supposed to do then? -Why don't you?

What?

I'd rather die.

Hegde...

I'd rather die than join your party.

I'm a loyal Shiv Sainik

Hegde...

Are you sure Pawar Saheb hasn't sent you?

Tell me straight up.

Our Advocate Dhonde can argue my case.

Hey... Dhonde...

Kamlesh is on saline.

Now you decide.

He went to Haji Malang.

To start a brawl.

You're a Muslim, why are you torturing yourself?

Not Haji Malang.

Call it Shree Malang.

Whichever cause Dighe Saheb fights for...

It becomes my cause.

Religion has nothing to do with it.

Even if I die for Saheb...

Bury me in a saffron shroud.

I'm a Shiv Sena Muslim.

What do I do with these boys?

I didn't want to be tied down by family.

So, I didn't marry.

I wanted to devote my life to Shiv Sena.

But these Shiv Sainiks

Love me more than my own children ever would have.

Yes, but law doesn't run on love.

Kamlesh...

He is critical.

Hegde Saheb

Please...

Plead in court...

Please do plead to the court.

Just

Release me for just one hour.

Just one hour.

I'll go...

My boys...

Take a good look at them.

I'll convince them.

And I'll come back right away.

I...

Then they can keep me here for the rest of my life.

Just one hour, Hegde.

Saheb...

But...

You don't need to go out of here for that.

If I don't...

He'll die. My Kamlesh.

He'll die.

Trupti Madam...

Take this.

Write him a letter.

When he sees your handwriting.

He'll understand your 'Jai Maharashtra'.

Kamlya...

Look at this...

Dighe Saheb has sent you this letter.

He has written it himself.

I recognize Saheb's handwriting.

Give it to me.

Here...

It is his handwriting.

So, listen up.

This is Kamlesh.

Kamlesh Chavan.

This is the letter.

Written by Dighe Saheb himself.

He would have actually laid down his life for Dighe Saheb.

He's a staunch party worker.

Show me... -Be careful.

Saheb's letter.

Even the leaders were worthy of giving our lives for.

Leaders who nurtured their followers.

Look at the leaders we are following.

His face is never without a frown.

Shinde...!

What's with you?

Sawant, why have you come here?

Shirsat...

Get out of here.

When was I ever in; to throw me out!

That's our fate...

What brings Sahebrao Patkar here?

Who is Sahebrao Patkar?

He's a dashing officer.

Known to wield an iron fist.

Keeps to himself; doing his job without favour or bias.

Do such officers actually exist?

Yes, we have them, Bapu.

Namaste.

Jai Hind, Sir!

Namaste Bapu.

I was singing your praises.

Thank you Saheb

What brings you here; with sweets?

Did your son pass his exams?

No.

I passed my Xth standard in 1988. I've brought sweets today.

Now?

I hope these sweets are not from that time.

Or else we will 'pass' away!

No Saheb...

I didn't know for so many years.

I just found out this morning; hence these sweets.

Specially for you.

I...

Our practice tests for Xth standard...

Apparently, Dighe Saheb started them?

Not 'apparently', officer.

He did indeed start them.

You see...

Boys like us who came from small villages,

Are hounded by nightmares of Math & English.

I'm sure Bapu knows.

Yes

Math was like a ghoul

That latched itself onto our bodies.

It was absolutely necessary to squash this mythical fear of mathematics.

That's why Dighe Saheb started the practice tests.

In 1985.

There was a different reason behind it.

Isn't it Kamlesh?

Another reason...?

Look at the coincidence.

Prabhakar

Kale Saheb...

Yes Saheb?

Is Prakash Gupte here? -Yes.

Call him. -Yes.

Gupte!

Gupte!

Coming!

Yes, Saheb!

Go meet Korde Teacher in Saraswati School.

Yes, Saheb.

She is not giving these students their hall tickets.

I'll talk to her... -And...

Wear your 'shield' on your back.

She is quite strict.

That is why I am sending you.

Yes, Saheb.

The students have to appear for their Xth standard exam.

Leave them be.

You...

Go...

Go on now...

Vilas...

Take this.

Whistle

Good morning, Saheb!

Give me that file...

Good morning, Saheb!

Whistle

Good morning, Saheb!

Anand...

Anand... -What? What is it?

Just wish him good morning.

Or he won't stop whistling like a parrot

Am I his girlfriend?

He comes here whistling like Romeo.

Good morning, Saheb!

I'm getting late for school. Just say it now.

You say it every day.

Why won't you today?

This madness needs to stop at some point.

Yes, of course.

I'll box your ears.

And I'll box yours.

Saheb... -What now?

Say it today.

Hey! Good Morning!

Hey! Good Morning!

You startled them.

Such a simple thing.

Why did you waste my time?

Oh, come on, Saheb!

And teach Atmaram some manners.

You got him into that school.

Me?

Me? -Saheb, you alone do it.

Admissions like these.

Whistle

Why is that whistling parrot here so early?

I don't know Saheb. Please calm down.

Saheb he has his Xth standard Math exam today.

Wish him good morning.

Xth Standard exam? -Yes.

I won't say it at all.

Saheb just humour him. He lives in my ward.

I don't care if you lose this election. But I won't say it.

Please don't do that, Saheb.

He'll lose one year.

He'll lose one year?

Doesn't matter.

I won't say it. -Aai, I won't go.

I won't budge till Saheb wishes me good morning.

Is he going to wish you?

That's our daily ritual.

Don't do this. Go for your exam.

You shut up.

Do you see how arrogant he is!

He's so cocky, Eknath

I won't say it.

Good morning, Saheb!

Good morning, Saheb!

You will lose one year, you fool...

I still won't say it.

If he fails, he will come and sit here every day.

He'll wish you good morning even at midnight.

Saheb, good morning!

Good... Morning!

Go now.

Don't ever come back.

Did you see that?

Hey Tukaram, goodbye.

I'm Atmaram...

Saheb I'm going to slap him one day.

So am I.

Saheb?

What is it?

Nothing.

Saheb?

What's wrong?

That boy...

'Good morning'?

He hasn't come yet? To chew my brains.

When he's here; you're upset with him.

Now that he isn't; you're still upset?

I thought you would be happy to be rid of his nuisance.

You too are a nuisance.

I've been tolerating you for so many years.

I am used to him now.

And his 'Good morning, Saheb'.

Nandu...

Go out there...

Whistle loudly a couple of times.

That will be music to Saheb's ears.

Good morning, Saheb

Nandu...

Jai Shiv Shambhu!

Saheb...

Saheb...

Saheb, our 'Good Morning' is no more.

Gotya...

What happened?

Saheb our 'Good Morning' committed suicide.

He founds yesterday's Math paper very difficult.

So, he hanged himself to death this morning.

Anand...

Say something

None of it is your fault.

If not me, whose fault is it, Vasanta?

All of us politicians

Talk of big things all the time.

I defeated this mayor.

And made that MLA win the election.

I pulled down this government. And that government is in power because of me.

We think we have it all!

But I couldn't understand what was going on in the mind of a fourteen-year-old boy.

And we think we have the world at our feet.

This was not even due to poor exam results.

This boy was scared because he found the Math paper very difficult.

The paper was tough, so he...?

So, he committed suicide? -Vasanta!

This isn't suicide.

This is murder.

You did it.

I did it.

All of us politicians have collectively committed this murder.

The young...

students feel that...

Their whole life hinges on passing exams.

The fear of failing

is worse than death?

Why can't we rid them of this fear forever?

That won't help Saheb.

What do you mean?

Hundreds of students have killed themselves so far.

It has happened today.

It will happen again

And again and again.

Gupte!

We know the illness.

Tell me the cure.

Saheb, I think that there could be a solution.

Wait...

Saheb wants to know the solution.

Saheb...

It is in fact simple.

Saheb...

When we have a cold-water bath.

What do we do to get used to the cold?

We take a tumbler of the cold water.

We pour some of it on our feet.

Then on the ankles.

We don't pour it over our head.

We don't directly pour it over our head.

We start with the feet.

It's cold.

To further brace ourselves to the cold...

We try it on the calves.

Then thighs...

And then we are brave enough to...

Splash it on the chest and shoulders.

When our body gets used to the

Cold water...

What do we do?

The bucket...

We lift the bucketful of cold water

And empty it on our head.

Done.

We're no longer wary of the cold water.

And we're done bathing.

Saheb...

Exams are no different.

This education system...

Startles the students with full-fledged exams.

The students panic.

We'll make them get used to it.

Saheb...

Children must get used to exams.

That's all he wants to say.

Sorry Saheb.

Great, Kallore!

Anand Kaka!

The world revolves around zero...

Zero is the miracle worker...

Starts from one goes right up to zero....

Don't be scared of this numbers' game.

We'll study it thoroughly, work on it properly and find the solution.

Let's chase away this Math- monster!

Let's practice...

You're ready to soar...

Come my friend, we can easily tackle this chanllenge.

Let's practice...

You're ready to soar...

Let us practice and conquer Mathematics!

A/B sin theta... B/C cos theta...

That's the fun of Trigonometry.

The radius of the circle is always half of its diameter...

22/7 = pi

Take the squares of the two sides of a triangle

To find the hypotenuse....

The Pythagoras Theorem is so simple!

Just subtract fear and negativity from your life.

Just subtract fear and negativity from your life.

Add all your efforts and you'll find all the missing answers....

Divide your fears...

Multiply your practice...

To find the right solution!

This year we shall conquer Mathematics!

Let's chase away this Math- monster!

Let's practice...

You're ready to soar...

Come my friend, we can easily tackle this challenge.

Let's practice...

You're ready to soar...

Good morning Saheb...

Good morning Saheb...

Saheb...

Had it not been for those practice tests...

Hundreds of students had already committed suicide.

I would have been one of them.

Today... I'm an IPS officer...

Standing here in front of you.

All thanks to those practice tests.

Saheb...

Your student who cleared the IPS

Salutes you!

Jai Hind Saheb.

Thank you.

Thank you Saheb.

This is getting ridiculous now.

Is he out of his mind?

We’re supposed to support the alliance no matter what!

While others can walk all over it?

Gogavle…

You …

Seem to be ready for war?

Our swords are rusty

And rotting in the sheath, Babar Saheb.

What are we supposed to fight with?

Who is it now?

Who else?

Him…

That smart fellow in Delhi.

Now what?

Why do they take Savarkar so lightly??

He has made a foolish statement all over again.

About Savarkar.

Look.

He has insulted Maharashtra.

The clip has gone viral.

What on earth!

He has put his foot in his mouth more than a couple of times already.

People who love Savarkar have voted for us.

Saheb, if we keep quiet now…

Our party is in for a miserable loss in the election.

But we won’t do anything.

Isn't it Shinde Saheb?

Isn’t it?

We are wearing bangles…

Bangles

We won't utter a word.

I am ashamed of myself.

Balasaheb should have been here.

Had Balasaheb been here…

He would have regretted every word that came out of his mouth.

Had Dighe Saheb been here…

He would have barged into his house

And made him regret his words.

That horrid Iyer spoke some rubbish at Andaman.

We chased him out of Maharashtra, remember?

Balasaheb had said…

"If I ever see you again…"

"I’ll thrash with you with my boots."

Sattar Saheb…

That was Balasaheb’s order.

Now it is….

He...

Bharat Sheth.

Sheth? Nonsense.

Bapu…

At that time all of us were tigers.

We've just pulled on the skin of a tiger.

Underneath we’re scaredy cats.

Saheb we’ve been stripped of all respect and you’re…

You’re laughing?

No...

I'm not laughing at that Mahesh...

I remembered something…

There had been a commissioner in Thane.

He resented Savarkar.

He was posted here during our Ganpati festival…

Bhumre Mama, he took Dighe Saheb very lightly.

He was this well-built guy…

Savarkar hater...

But we showed him the wrath of Thane.

Stop it…

Mhaske...

Yes Saheb?

What is going on?

It’s a 'live decoration'.

Showcasing Swatantrya Veer Savarkar.

What is written here?

What is the meaning of this line?

Forget about the meaning. Just tell us what the problem is.

You don’t have the permission to do this.

Permission?

Mr. Tyagi…

Do you have the permission for this?

Please show.

I don't have the permission today, sir. -Then you better get it.

I will get it tomorrow.

Tyagi…

Enough of your English.

Leave.

Come back when Dighe Saheb is here.

How dare you call him ‘Tyagi’?

Call him Saheb

There is only one Saheb in Thane.

Dighe Saheb.

Enough now. Get going.

I’ll get the permission.

Stop all this now.

Stop this nonsense right now... -Tyagi Saheb…

You’re the one putting up a show.

Dighe Saheb will take care of you.

I don’t know any Dighe Saheb

Shut up.

If you don’t pull this down by tomorrow,

I’ll be back with a full police force.

I’ll raze it to the ground.

I’ll put all of you behind bars.

Along with your Dighe Saheb.

Get it?

Saheb… He has a short fuse.

Don't engage with him. Let’s go.

Hegde Saheb…

He’ll be great as Barry in our play.

He isn’t Barry. He’s a strawberry.

Savarkar Saheb…

You’re still in exile under their rule.

But one day we will rule.

We’ll put an end to your exile.

Go on.

Saheb is here…

Check it properly so that we can give our remarks.

Please sit.

Sit down.

Hegde?

Your court is open till midnight today?

Saheb…

In case of

Such an emergency it has to stay open till late.

Emergency?

Ask them

Saheb...

Sit down.

What is it?

Strawberry was here.

Tyagi?

Yes.

He has given orders to pull this all down.

“Stop this farce.”

He said we don’t have the permission in place.

He got down to blows.

Saheb, he slapped me.

What else did he say?

He is coming back tomorrow.

He has threatened to arrest us if we don’t pull this down.

Including you.

I mean…

That’s what he said to me. I only heard it.

Are you mad? -But he said.

We must tell Saheb.

As a non-Hindu, even if I am crowned King of the Gods; 'll renounce it...

I choose to die a Hindu!

He didn’t like this?

Yes… he was furious.

Take it off.

Saheb?!

He didn’t like it.

Take it down.

Saheb… but…

I’m telling you pull it down.

I don’t want any mess during Ganpati.

Saheb…

Do as I say.

Let’s begin the ‘aarti’.

Tawde?

Did they take it off?

Their decorations?

Everything that was written?

Did they?

Saheb, this isn’t the right time.

We should…

In ten days, after the ‘visarjan’ we can have it taken down…

No, Tawde.

Your Ganpati…

Dandiya…

Folks in Delhi don’t care about any of it.

They're allergic to that Savarkar’s name.

Understood?

‘That’ Savarkar?

Such disrespect?

Wow Saheb!

I don’t know about Delhi…

Seems to me you’re more allergic to Savarkar.

What nonsense, Tawde?

Go and demolish that decoration.

Go!

You're right, sir.

The news has just come in.

They have begun to take off the decorations depicting Savarkar.

I'm going there.

Go!

Look at that Tawde.

This is the terror of the Central Government.

Where’s your Dighe Sahab now?

Has he fled Thane?

He is scared of me.

Got it?

Go now.

Get some tea for us.

Nonsense.

These people don’t know the power of the central government.

What's the big deal about Savarkar?

These Maharashtrians have nothing better to do?

Look at Dighe...

He's scared.

Dighe Saheb is afraid?

You monkeys… be careful.

Just take it down, don’t break it.

Idiots.

Why are you getting mad, Sanjay More?

Tea?

I had warned your Mr. Dighe.

Tyagi is here on central posting. Don’t rub him the wrong way.

Now face this humiliation.

Just do your job.

What’s with the jibes?

Jibe?

You didn't like it?

Wait for tomorrow’s headline.

Love for Savarkar abandoned due to Tyagi’s terror.

Everyone from Anand Ashram is here?

That must be the tempo to take away the decorations.

Only the Ganpati idol will be left behind.

This is an embarrassment for Thane.

Sir!

As long as I am posted in Thane…

Forget about the decorations of Savarkar.

No one can even utter his name here.

Sir.

Jai hind sir.

Saheb…

He…

I know Tawde.

Got get me some tea.

Just tea? I’ll put a whole sack of sugar at our feet.

Tawde…

Why are you so excited?

The decoration is gone?

All of it.

They have put up a bigger one!

Dighe Saheb was invited you to see it.

Come…

Everyone, let’s go.

Dighe!

Officer.

Get the entire police force.

Right now.

I’m Vinayak Damodar Savarkar.

The sun in the Queen’s empire

Will soon set over the horizon of our Hindu country.

Mr. Barry...

Clear this crowd. Get out now!

Get back...

What’s going on here?

Take it off!

Tyagi!

The decoration was too small yesterday.

The font too tiny.

You wear glasses.

I thought.

You couldn’t read it.

So, I have made it bigger.

Read it.

And leave.

Mr. Dighe.

The orders are from above.

There’s a problem with the decoration.

Is there a problem with the decoration or your vision?

This question…

Ask the people at the centre.

Then what the hell are you doing here?

You must be a patriot to understand the greatness of Savarkar.

Not the dog of a particular family.

The walls of Andaman and

Iron chains couldn’t break him down.

A couple of wolves in the centre can’t even put a scratch on him.

Are you done?

Now get out of the way.

We’ll demolish it.

Go on.

Destroy it.

But then what happens in Thane during Ganeshotsav…

You will be responsible for that.

You don’t worry about it.

Tawde…

Yes sir?

Destroy everything.

How can we do that?

Tawde!

Take it down.

They won’t.

They know…

Who Savarkar is!

Get lost.

You'll pay for this.

I'll make you.

Tyagi!

Beware of the tiger in the jungle.

And me in Maharashtra.

Don’t you dare cross our path!

He who will stand up for the Hindus...

Only he will rule this country our ours!

I spoke to all the workers. They're from our ward.

Jai Maharashtra Saheb.

Jai Maharashtra! -Dighe Saheb!

Namaste, I'm Sharad Ponkshe.

I'm a Marathi actor. -Namaste.

You're the one who plays Nathuram? -Yes.

I've heard about your play.

Forgive me Saheb but a play is to be watched… Not heard.

We’ll see.

When can you show me?

How can I show you?

The play has been shut down by the ruling party.

Theatre is an art form.

What has a political party got to do with it?

Pawar Saheb…

Backed the play 'Ghashiram Kotwal' for years.

Pawar Saheb stood firmly behind ‘Ghashiram’.

There’s no one with ‘Nathuram’.

Look at that.

Huh?

You have my backing now.

Anand Dighe is with you.

Their performance of ‘Nathuram…’ must happen here…

Right here in ‘Gadkari…’

Mr. Mayor get ready.

We’re already ready.

Let’s see…

Who can stop you now.

Victory to Mahatma Gandhi!

[Crowd protesting]

Obviously Hegde...

Your people don't get it... It is only a play.

Such a protest for a play!

Saheb...

When did the ruling party get into protesting like us?

Protests are our forte...

No... we're laughing now...

Don't you think this could escalate beyond control?

How does it matter even if it does?

The crowd has barged in.

So what?

They are party workers; they are doing their job.

We are about to start the performance... What if they do something drastic?

Ponkshe this isn't about "What if something happens..."

It has already begun!

Hey!

Stop it!

He is a party worker.

Just like you.

No matter which party.

Learn to respect all party workers.

He is working for his party.

Let him go.

Get away from him...

Be human...

Make friends...

Politics aside.

Him...

Advocate Hegde, from the Congress Party.

He is my friend.

Vasant Davkhare

Vasanta...

He is my friend.

Him...

Sharad Ponkshe

He is not the actual Nathuram.

He's an actor.

He performs.

He must continue to act in his play.

Why are you acting like monsters?

Put that down.

Yes...

Come on... Get up.

Ponkshe...

Saheb?

Put up such a solid performance...

All of them must fall in love with you.

Namaste.

I do not know any of you.

Tatyarao Savarkar...

The warm radiance of the sun.

The speed of the wind...

Endurance which even rocks would envy...

And wisdom so profound...

Even Brihaspti would want to be a disciple.

All of these qualities in human form...

Tatyarao Savarkar!

Shinde Saheb!

When did you...?

Wow!

Joshi...

Namaste. -You don't have to get up Sharad ji...

You should've woken me up.

You seemed to be fast asleep.

I didn't want to disturb you.

How are you now?

Fine.

You see...

Twenty years ago...

Nathuram

Was saved by Dighe Saheb.

And I who used to play that role...

You've saved me today.

The doctors saved you.

I am just a medium.

You are being modest.

Maharashtra needs staunch Hindus like you.

As does Shiv Sena.

Don't be offended, Saheb.

I'll be frank.

Under the influence of some new friends...

Some leaders are dragging Shiv Sena

Far away from Hindutva.

Saheb...

Prabhakar has sent a message.

IB officers have arrived.

They are calling you. It's urgent.

IB?

Gadchiroli...

It's a naxal area...

Never mind.

Sharad ji...

The day Shiv Sena distances itself from Hindutva...

That day staunch Shiv Sainiks like you and I...

Will bring Hindutva back to Shiv Sena.

Tathastu!

Sir, it is confirmed.

As guardian minister in Gadchiroli...

the development projects that you have taken up...

It is being frowned upon.

All of us must take a collective... -Come to the point.

Saheb the naxalites have threatened to kill you.

You must apply for Z-plus security.

Sure.

Saheb we are in power.

Z-plus security won't be an issue.

It'll be done.

Okay fine.

Saheb according to me...

Tell him...

It's important.

Saheb we must also...

Saheb this is important.

Don't ignore.

We have to deal with this.

Saheb this is about your safety.

What I am going downstairs for...

Is about the safety of a thousand lives.

It has hardly been a few months since Corona has ended.

Have you already forgotten the importance of hygeine?

Do you remember?

A son couldn't come to light his own father's pyre.

And parents were nowhere to be find if a son died.

Those who lived proudly went up in flames unclaimed.

All of mankind was begging for oxygen.

Even millionaires couldn't lay their hands on Remdesivir.

If the common man gets riled up thanks to this filth of yours...

He'll pull out your tongues and hand them to you.

Sorry...

Come on.

You are...

You deserve to be locked up indoors. Forever.

Disgusting.

The palanquin of the body and soul quietly sets forth...

As time races swiftly, shrouded in a veil of dusk.

A chilling pain freezes deep within the heart....

Who will stand firm and reprimand the divine?

Breaking all the traditions... the Reaper stands at the door...

Under this sky laden with obstacles... my 'Anand' struggles to survive...

My 'Anand' struggles to survive...

There is no need for a CT scan.

I can guarantee you the count is above 21.

Take him inside.

Next.

Hurry up.

Doctor, his CT scan is done.

Sir!

Sir!

Sir a patient in general ward is panicking.

He is flailing... screaming...

The old man in bed #1?

Yes.

He is fine.

The loneliness is getting to him.

Go see him.

Show him some support.

People are dying from the fear of being alone more than the virus itself.

In the past five days 5 doctors and 3 nurses have tested positive.

Four of my sanitation workers have died.

I'll go to him if he gets worse.

Are you waiting for him to be critical? -Kale Saheb...

All of you are doing a great job.

Now it is time to do better than good.

Careful... We're still waiting for the oxygen tanker.

Forgive me doctor.

This illness has given you doctors an opportunity to be hailed as God!

Don't lose it.

Prabhakar...

Get the PPE kit.

Doctor will give the medicines.

We'll comfort them .

The world stands still...

Time torments and stirs a fear within.

A haunting emptiness lingers within...

Counting breaths like a beads on a string...

Fate is a mountain of sorrow that knows no bounds...

Kith and kin are so distant... making this a lonely battle...

No one knows anything... As treacherous Time slips away...

Under this sky laden with obstacles... My 'Anand' struggles to survive...

My 'Anand' struggles to survive...

Sir...

The oxygen cylinder tanker is not here yet.

What?

It was supposed to be here this morning.

Yes.

Then they said it will come in the afternoon.

Then they said evening.

Now they say tomorrow evening.

We only have enough oxygen to last till 5 in the morning.

Everyone will die.

Don't worry.

We'll do something.

Don't be scared.

I am here for you.

Yes, doctor?

Jai Maharashtra.

How come you are calling so late? -Saheb...

We have enough oxygen to last

only till 5 in the morning.

What?

And...

400 patients need oxygen.

I knew only you can help us at this hour.

There's something else...

In this pandemic

Not just the doctors.

All the politicians have the chance to be God.

Don't miss it.

Doctor...

Tell every single patient.

Dighe Saheb's Shiv Sainik

Is getting oxygen for them.

Tonight...

We must forget we are in power.

Shinde Madam, what is the oxygen situation in Thane?

It is better since the the GR.

How did the oxygen tanker leave the company in Taloja?

The owner says the order was from before the GR.

From before the GR?

He cares more about his business than the lives of people.

I will get to the bottom of these orders. Call them.

35 years ago, during Diwali...

Do you remember how Dighe Saheb blew up an order, Pratap?

To hell with your order...

It is Diwali and the Marathi households don't have sugar.

It is available only in the black market.

The wealthy are buying it.

At 10 times the price.

Should the poor make sweets with salt instead of sugar?

Hey

What should I do if the transport services are on strike?

Don't complain to me about your empty godowns.

I know why these are empty

And where the full godowns are.

Hang up.

What are you still doing here?

I thought you must be in Bhiwandi by now.

Wait... Stop them!

By hook or by crook.

Do what you must.

All Marathi homes must enjoy a sweet Diwali.

Who is it?

What is the matter?

You are Dighe Saheb's men aren't you?

Here.

The owner's men are inside.

Be careful.

They are dangerous.

More than us?

Don't let them get away.

I'll take care of it.

You take these.

Tell Saheb...

Saheb is here...

Saheb is here.

Jai Maharashtra Saheb.

This Diwali will be sweet in Marathi homes. -Enough.

Saheb is here.

Naresh... -Yes Saheb?

How many trucks?

2

And sacks?

600

Sure?

600... Check it properly.

Have you kept anyone alive to count or not?

Him. He is the main guy.

So?

How much for 600 sacks of sugar?

600... 4...

Do you even know how to count?

Just take them

We're Shiv Sainiks. Not robbers.

Prakash... -Yes, Saheb.

600 sacks of sugar.

And the fare for 2 trucks.

Saheb this is way more than that.

For me?

Why?

You too should celebrate Diwali with your family.

Let's go.

The other truck driver ran away. Who will drive it?

Eknath

Me?

I drive a rickshaw. Not a truck.

What's the difference?

Just put it in gear.

Saheb what about the consequences?

A Shiv Sainik doesn't worry about the consequences.

If it is for the better of the common man... Take the risky route.

Pratap... -Yes Saheb

It was about the rights of the common man.

This time it is about his life and death.

We'll not only take the risky route. we will blow it up.

The oxygen tanker must come to Thane.

Never mind if the media roasts us in the morning.

But we must get the tanker. -Yes Saheb.

I want a video call with my daughter.

What if I am dying tomorrow?

To save 400 lives. I don't care if I have to take 4 lives here.

I am not young enough nor I do I want to get into a fist fight.

If you want to. I can forget how old I am.

I am sure.

Dighe Saheb's Shiv Sainik...

Will bring the oxyegen.

My 'Anand' will survive...

He who saved hundreds of lives during the pandemic...

What is the cost of the life of Guardian Minister Eknath Shinde?

His own party has refused his request for Z-plus security.

Here Shinde Saheb's life is in danger...

In spite of us being in power...

Our own leaders are denying him security.

Our culture preaches about lending a helping hand to an enemy in need.

Here things are quite contrary to that teaching.

What is going on in the Alliance?

Did you hear what they are saying?

We are in power.

The Chief Minister is ours.

The Home Minister for state is ours.

But the Home Minister is theirs.

This was bound to happen.

I bet he thinks...

I'm the Chief Minister, Ruler of the world!

Saheb...

I had a question. -What?

What?

How should I tell you...?

Although I am under threat from the Naxalites,

IB had informed you about it yet you refused my Z plus security?

Right? -Me?

I rejected it? -Yes, you.

I tried so hard for it.

Our spokesperson called me.

He said... -Let Shinde die.

Saheb... -That's exactly how it is.

With Shinde out of the way... they can easily squash the rest of the Shiv Sena.

They have put Balasaheb's Shiv Sena up for sale.

Remember that.

Be it Naxalites or terrorists.

Your Y... Z Security, I don't care... -Saheb...

I am Dighe Saheb's boy.

I won't die so easily.

They don't care about our lives.

Why should we care about them?

To hell with them...

Whoever wants power that badly can have it.

We'll let go of it. -Let go of what?

Shiv Sena?

Us?

This is what they want, Bharat Sheth.

Who was out on the streets? Working, fighting... All for shiv Sena?

All of us.

I won't let it fall into the hands of some Tom Dick or Harry...

Look at this.

Look at this coincidence.

The Shiv Sena tiger looks like sheep.

Bloody communists.

Shinde Saheb...

Shiv Sena doesn't need the support of the Alliance.

The Alliance needs Shiv Sena.

That is true. -But Shambhu Raje...

Yes Saheb?

Get ready for Rajya Sabha.

Yes, Saheb

BJP is nominating 3 candidates.

3?

And us?

2

2?

What the...

So, either one of the candidates is going to lose.

This year it's not going to be as easy as it looks.

The 2nd votes are also going to be very important.

This Alliance appears smooth.

It's broke down from within.

Shinde Saheb...

With a group leader like you who can dare vote out a Shiv Sena candidate.

Who is our candidate?

We have nominated 2 Sanjays this time.

Where is our third Sanjay? Sanjay Shirsat?

Gosavi...

It has been 4 hours.

People think I am some mad man.

Let me in...

Shirsat Saheb...

Your name is not on the list.

I have taken today's appointment.

I'm here. Don't worry.

Look... Darvekar is here.

Darvekar Saheb, Namaste.

Darvekar

Just a minute.

Darvekar

Let's go...

Darvekar Saheb...

Namaste. -Shirsat Saheb.

Sorry.

Never mind. Just publish his book.

He is a renowned writer from Marathwada.

Saheb has gone out.

Why don't you bring him tomorrow? We'll do something about it.

I was made to stand here like a dog for 4 hours for this?

Darvekar Saheb...

We have formed an Alliance with them.

Learn these customs from Pawar Saheb.

How to treat party workers.

Even if he is a grass root level worker. he calls them by their name.

Here?

I doubt whether he knows the names of even the MLAs!

No... That's not...

Saheb... You can't treat people like this.

Saheb...

CM sir has called you urgently.

Tell him Shirsat Saheb is here.

Why Shirsat Saheb?

You go in.

You won by a margin of lakhs of votes. -Not us.

This your time to be in the sun.

Go.

Shirsat Saheb, calm down.

I'll take care of this.

Give me some time.

Darvekar Saheb.

Tell Saheb...

This tiger of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar doesn't have any more time.

Balasaheb, look your Shiv Sainiks are orphans without you.

Bhujbal left...

As did Rane and Raj Saheb...

I wonder who is next.

From a party worker who has toiled for the party for 35 years.

Jai Maharashtra Saheb.

Namaste Saheb.

Namaste. -Remember me?

How can I forget the 'Vetal' who asks questions?

And I can't forget the Vikram who doesn’t answer them.

What a coincidence, Saheb!

I was thinking of chess right now.

And here you are.

Who am I in your chess?

An ordinary pawn?

Prabhakar...

Your Saheb

an ordinary pawn?

Boys who grew up in Dighe Saheb's courtyard...

Can never be ordinary.

This ordinary pawn...

Placed on a chess board...

Reaches the final square.

That's when

It doesn't stay ordinary.

It becomes king.

I am an ordinary party worker, Mr. Journalist.

I don't understand your web of words.

You do... But you don't want to.

Saheb, do you remember?

I asked you a question 20 years ago.

Saheb we are...

I'll ask the same question, twenty years later.

Which one?

About Dighe Saheb's death.

I'm surprised.

A question mark has appeared on Vikram's face?

Are you thinking of the day of Dighe Saheb's 10th day funeral rites?

What did you say?

When?

What did you say to the offering?

I don't understand.

You do.

But you don't want to.

Everyone said something or the other.

But the crow didn’t touch it.

What did you say?

That so many crows touched it?

Eknath!

Sudhir?

All those who have been arrested for setting fire to Singhania Hospital...

They are under 'third-degree' by the police.

Let's go.

Eknath...

Not just me...

Everyone in Maharashtra wants to know the answer to that question.

How exactly did Dighe Saheb die?

You must answer.

What would Dighe Saheb have done had he been here?

Got the party workers out of there.

Someone has to take care of his unfinished business.

Saheb please don't beat them...

Stop it.

Everybody quiet!

Are they terrorists?

This is third degree torture!

Shinde!

Even terrorists don't set things on fire like this.

Our father died in that hospital. No, he was killed.

Was it the hospital's fault?

What if the other patients had died? -Did they?

It was the Shiv Sainiks who helped everyone out to safety.

We were grieving.

The boys were emotional.

I beg of you.

Tawde Saheb!

It hasn't even been 10 days since Dighe Saheb passed away.

You've forgotten him already?

Shinde...

Try to understand.

This matter has escalated.

You'll have to go to court and get bail.

13 of them...

How many of you have government jobs?

They will lose their jobs if charges are filed against them.

Please I beg of you. Entire -Maharashtra has read about the 176.

You won't have to change the numbers.

Let them go. And arrest 13 of us.

That requires money.

Money. Do you have it? -Money?

Dighe Saheb would have handled this properly.

Waghmare!

You are sounding louder today?

Nonsense!

Shinde... -Let it be.

He is purring because Dighe Saheb is no more.

He would have never opened his trap in front of Saheb.

Atmaram...

You'll be going in.

You can be a support to the boys. Your brother is in there isn't he?

I will bring you 13 boys tomorrow. Let 13 of them go.

Don't forget...

I'm giving you Dighe Saheb's Nagar Sevak.

Keep that in mind.

I will.

The court doesn't care about it.

We'll have to pay up there as well? -Dighe Saheb never had any money...

But he managed it when the need arose.

We will get the money.

Here you go.

Shrikant...

Get back to your studies now

I love doing this more than studying.

You fool.

Focus on your education.

You must become something respectable, like a doctor...

No way...

I want to become a Shiv Sainik like Papa!

What?

Shiv Sainik.

I'm almost broke here looking after his Shiv Sainiks...

You want to go the same route. I will go to the hills once and for all.

You don't know anything.

Papa has a lot of money.

Yeah right! -Lata...

Yes?

Do you have some money?

Just get back to your studies now.

Papa!

Don't look at me. Go study.

Bhai, please do something about the water supply.

There has been no water for two days.

The one who opens the tap is stuck behind bars.

I need money to get him out of there.

Lata?

I do have a small kitty.

Then give it to me.

They are all our boys. I need to put up their bail.

We have collected some money but we're still short.

I'm saving every penny. Go squander it on the party workers.

Dighe Saheb would have done the same.

And those who made money using Saheb's name. Where are they now?

How does it matter?

Dighe Saheb is right here.

That's my fate!

I'm stuck with this.

Please do something about the water.

Tell your friend to give me the money.

She will.

What will she do with all that money from the kitty?

This happens to me every time.

Here.

Give me all of it...

This was for Shrikant's fees for next month.

Don't worry.

It's a matter of time.

There will come a day...

You won't believe your luck.

Dighe Saheb is with us.

This is Dinkar.

He works in the health department of the Municipal Corporation.

If the case were to be filed against him.

His life was over.

Don't touch my feet. That honour belonged only to Dighe Saheb.

Atmaram...

Don't worry, I'll manage.

Tell him to watch out.

He is happy to go in.

Uddhavrao...

Eknath

Not only has a beard like Dighe Saheb.

He even has a heart like him.

Our Eknath

Will never abandon Dighe Saheb's Shiv Sena.

Nandu... Where's Mo. Da?

In there.

Mumbai... Come inside.

Yes...

Careful or else you fall flat on your face.

More?

What is it?

There is a man here.

What about him?

He’s enquiring about Saheb’s property.

He has come from Mumbai.

Of course, this party was his family.

But…

His accounts,

Or plots of land…

Other property…

Property?

Saheb’s property?

Vilas…

Saheb has some 10 or 12 plots in Thane.

Only I know about them.

Exactly!

Saheb’s plots?

He worked hard for them.

We knew about this.

That’s obvious.

Where are the plots?

Right here.

Prakash Paranjape.

Myself…

Our Eknath…

Ramesh Vaity…

Vilas Joshi…

Uddhavrao…

More…

Gotya…

Hemant Pawar.

Ravi Phatak.

Get a good look at all of them.

They are all highly valued plots.

However, we don’t have any documents of these plots.

Since a businessman called Anand Dighe;

Invested all his life in these…. Individuals.

Not in money.

Get it?

Saheb…

You could’ve chosen a better day.

It is the tenth day of Saheb’s passing.

How do you like…

These plots?

Figure out if you can sell them.

Such fertile plots of land…

You won’t find anything like these in the political marketplace.

Eknath…

You’re listening, aren’t you?

Was Anand wrong?

Was he?

Anand…

What did you earn…?

The 'Shiv Sena Shakha' is my home.

My Shiv Sainiks who stand by me day and night are my brethren.

Citizens in need are my kin.

And the solution to their problems…

Is my wealth.

You’ve proven to be Dighe Saheb’s most invaluable plot, Eknath Rao

From the corporator of Thane Municipal Corporation

To Urban Development Minister, Maharashtra...

Wow! -That's not a big deal...

It's just a post.

I still want to be known as Dighe Saheb's true Shiv Sainik.

Not a plot.

Every person in Thane was a fertile plateau.

Fertile plateau!

Our farmer was a man...

Who would toil on this farm with his blood and sweat.

Eknath Rao, sometimes, I think…

Along with the idols of deities; the puja room in your house...

There must be Dighe Saheb’s photo as well.

Of course.

Of course there is.

Probably that is the reason, Eknath Rao,

You said something the other day…

And the crow touched the funeral offering.

You’re still stuck on that.

For the past twenty years.

In fact for the past twenty years,

The laws that the BJP government has been trying to pass.

Those Section 370 and Teen Talaq...

These laws are certain to be passed

During the tenure of this Modi government.

Superb.

Chaughule…

Switch off that TV.

Why?

The joy that this news has brought to your faces,

It will destroy our alliance.

Saheb is here... -Namaste.

I’m sitting in your place.

Please… it’s okay.

While this ambitious decision of the Modi government…

Is being welcomed all over the country…

Maharashtra seems to be in mourning.

The stand of the other two parties in the alliance can be understood.

However, what about the Hindutvavaadi Shiv sena?

The Mantralaya is abuzz with whispers.

Now…

Do you think the voters will forgive us?

But our spokesperson says,

Our voters have grown.

How come?

Now we have two allies with us.

Allies?

Them?

They are our allies?

That’s an enemy disguised as a friend.

I fail to understand what we've achieved by stabbing the coalition in the back.

Breaking out of the coalition and going into the alliance is like...

Kill your own brother…

And invite your neighbour to live like a joint family.

So true!

Not joint... It's a giant family!

By abolishing the custom of Teen Talaq…

Without involving any political agenda in it...

People all over the country are relieved that

The Muslim women have been freed from an unjust custom.

Modi Saheb...

By abolishing this Teen Talaq

Has literally saved the Muslim women

A very unjust custom.

You know about the Raksha Bandhan in Anand Ashram, don’t you?

Oh yes…

I’ll tell you.

Women from all over Maharashtra would come to Anand Ashram.

Hindus, Muslims, Christians…

All of them used to think, this bearded fellow is my brother.

His hands used to be full of ‘rakhis'.

One of them was…

Nagma…

Take off the burqa.

And then tie the rakhi.

Or else get lost.

Is she wearing a burqa?

Is she?

Take it off!

Take off the burqa.

Every year you take it off when you tie the rakhi.

What’s wrong this year?

That’s what I want to know.

What’s wrong this year?

Take it off, he’s our brother.

Last night, my drunk husband…

Beat me to a pulp.

If I try to stop him

He says he will…

Declare ‘Talaq… Talaq…’

Saheb!

Women from all over Maharashtra

Are here to tie their rakhis.

What about their Rakhi Pournima?

This year’s Rakhi Pournima will be at Nagma’s doorstep.

Let’s go!

Each one of you who has ever tied a rakhi on my hand...

Every sister of mine.

Her grief...

Is my grief.

Her grief is my grief.

You think you can just blurt "Talaq...Talaq" and leave her?

You'll leave her?

You'll abandon her?

Remember...

No matter which community...

No matter which religion...

If the lady of his house is miserable...

He has set himself up for destruction.

Now you may.

How he thrashed that fellow!

This year the rakhis are up to his elbow.

Next year they will be up to his shoulders.

Anyone who tortures his sister...

Will meet the same fate.

Your wife too has tied him a rakhi.

Don't forget.

Yours too!

Don't forget.

I don't even step out of the house without her permission.

I don't even enter the house without her permission.

Tell me...

We've come so far to Thane just for him...

Where is Shinde Saheb?

He is at a Satya-Narayan Puja in Thane.

So late? At 12.30 in the night?

12.30 or 1 o'clock is nothing

Saheb used to go for 'darshan' even at 4 in the morning!

We used to be with him.

Namaste Patil Saheb.

Dighe Saheb would never miss the pooja at Patil's house.

He is brash but honest.

Namaste Patil Saheb.

Sorry I am late.

You're too late.

Too late.

It would be all right if you hadn't made it tonight.

Patil Saheb!

Mind your tongue.

Sudhir, let him speak.

Thanks to him we are ministers today.

Go on Patil

Should I?

You've lost the right to attend our religious festivities

On the day you broke the coalition to join the alliance.

You know...

We had voted for...

for the coalition.

No matter what...

We won't go with the Congress Party.

I would much rather shut shop.

Those were Balasaheb's words.

You are their loyal Shiv Sainiks.

Have you forgotten everything?

I'll tell you why you must have forgotten.

Listen to this.

"Aai sat down!"

"Aai laughed!"

Some woman who insulted our Mahalaxmi in such words...

I hear she is going to be the spokesperson of your Shiv Sena?

She didn't stop at insulting our Goddess!

Even Prabhu Shri Ramchandra!

When he was in exile...

During that time...

'Rambhau...!'

"What were you doing when you were alone in the forest?"

That's what this woman asked.

Marutiraya went flying off...

He went alone. Why didn't he bring Sita Mai back with him?

You have peddled your Hindutva.

As if that wasn't enough...

So...

That woman...

Hindu Hrudaysamrat Balasaheb Thackarey

Called him a fossil!

Fossil!

Let's go. -Are you fleeing already?

If you still have even an iota of self-respect of a true Shiv Sainik....

Kick your ministerships.

It is always better to correct your mistakes.

I'm a mere Shiv Sainik, Patil Saheb.

We don't have any say in making coalitions and alliances.

It's all in the hands of the leaders in Mumbai.

That's not right Shinde Saheb.

Shiv Sena is the only party in the whole country...

Whose decisions are not taken by leaders sitting in their homes...

They are made by the party workers who are out on the streets.

We've learnt that from Dighe Saheb.

A stay-at-home leader is a nobody.

He who works alongside his party men is the real leader.

Patil Saheb

I'll come to you SatyaNarayan Pooja again.

With my head held high.

I'll be waiting for that day.

Eagerly...

In the Rajya Sabha elections held a month ago...

A Shiv Sena MP of the Rajya Sabha lost by a margin of half a vote.

You're too late.

It would be all right if you hadn't made it tonight.

Shiv Sena is likely to take some harsh decisions.

What is the election process going to be like?

Who will suffer the most?

Called him a fossil!

Fossil!

Will veteran Shiv Sainiks be sidelined to be led by rookies?

Maharashtra is abuzz with such whispered rumours...

In the Rajya Sabha or the State Legislative Council...

When a candidate loses by the margin of a mere half a vote...

You tell me...

Saheb...

You're yet to check this file.

And sign some papers as well...

To hell with your file... -Saheb!

Am I here just to sign their files?

Useless power...

Saheb, don't pay attention to the media.

Forget about the media even the public is raising questions now.

One of them insulted us yesterday...

A Hindutvavadi voter!

Thanks to whom we are sitting cozy on our seats.

While we're shaking hands with age old rivals of Shiv Sena.

How many cases are you involved in? Fighting for our party?

About 25

Dalvi?

32

And 6 months in jail.

Shantaram More?

20

Balaji?

12 cases.

Bharat Sheth how many cases against you?

I don't remember anymore.

How about you Shirsat?

I've been in and out.

All these cases... All the fights...

Whom did you fight against?

Who has filed these cases against us?

Who shot at the karsevaks in Ayodhya?

Those who insult the sacred saffron...

Saffron Terrorism!

Who coined this term?

Who made Balasaheb stand in the accused box in Lucknow court?

Here we are proud of our Alliance with them!

So many Shiv Sainiks have been killed fighting such people.

They were killed in their offices...

Our workers...

They barged into houses and killed Shiv Sainiks.

Did they seek permission of their parents before getting into this Alliance?

Come on... Shiv Sainiks... Let's go...

We must vote for the Legislative Council.

We must go to 'the cabin'.

There's going to be a rehearsal of the voting process.

What?

That's not all.

They have brought in some rookies to keep an eye on us.

What's going on? -We have to follow their lead!

How ridiculous!

Voting rehearsal?

Rehearsal? Shinde Saheb... Tell us right now what do you want us to do?

The man is faltering. Not the Party.

Not for anything, we'll vote for humanity!

For Balasaheb's Shiv Sena.

Call everyone... Dada Bhuse, Babar Saheb...

We'll vote.

Call Uday as well.

We thought we're veterans.

But these fledgelings are going to train us!

Kaka...

Cast your vote here...

Tanaji Kaka...

You'll be caned if you make a mistake.

Mr. Health Minister... Let's go before your health fails...

While leaving, Babar Saheb was asking me...

"Are you sure we're going to vote?"

Excuse me gentlemen.

Who is Mr. Eknath Shinde?

Who is Mr. Eknath Shinde?

Excuse me, Who is Mr. Eknath Shinde?

Me!

You don't need to come inside...

Go, they're calling you.

Dad'da Bhuse...

'Dada' Bhuse... Just go.

Shinde Saheb, listen to me....

One of our candidates was defeated in the Rajya Sabha.

We're taking some precautions... -These precautions?

Who the hell takes such precautions?

Rajya Sabha party leader is made to sit outside

And event managers are in there?

Tell those kids who don't even know my name...

Who is Eknath Sambhaji Shinde!

Who is Eknath Shinde?!

She is a nobody. Saheb please, come sit...

Out!

All those whose names are on the list please have a seat.

Please come inside.

Rest of the procedure will be explained inside.

First five please sit. Bhumre Mama come inside.

Go.

Go...!

Please go...

Do this for humanity.

Who is...

Eknath Shinde?!

Saheb...

Who is Eknath Shinde?

This is Eknath Shinde.

He took a thrashing for you.

While destroying the dance bars.

A die-hard party worker is rare to find these days.

He must be honoured.

Who are all these bearded fellows?

Who are they?

Does everyone in Thane sport beards like these now?

They are the future of Shiv Sena in Thane, Saheb.

Our Rajya Sabha party leader is sitting outside.

And that filth is sitting inside.

Eknath...

You're my darling.

Who is he?

He's a Shiv Sainik.

He lives in Kisan Nagar.

Eknath Shinde.

He slogs for the party all day.

At night he drives the rickshaw to earn a living.

What about this?

Exactly...

No power; no money. Shiv Sena will do no good to them.

Yes, it will.

Working for the party; to make money off it...

I'm not some mediocre party worker.

I am Dighe Saheb's Shiv Sainik.

As if he's going to be the Chief Minister one day.

Who is Eknath Shinde?

Officer?

What are you doing here?

Do you have 'an assignment' in Mumbai?

Not exactly.

But your life is in danger.

Take care.

Saheb it's from my trusted source.

Officer...

Twenty years ago, in our Thane, a bearded Baba was blindsided.

But he has alerted the other bearded man.

Let them know.

Somnath...

Let's go.

Not just the usual ones.

'Others' have also been tipped off.

Thanks for your co-operation, Officer.

This isn't the first time.

Many... many... many others...

Have ordered hits on me in the past.

Those who have ordered it this time... Just tell them.

I've come out unscathed... Every time.

Don't be scared... I'm here with you.

Who are these men?

Hold them. Lata hold them tight.

Shrikant, get down.

Roll up the windows.

Shrikant don't be scared.

Shrikant!

Do not get out of the car.

Aai!

No Eknath!

I won't let them get away, Saheb.

They have dragged my family into this.

Eknath! -What if they had been hurt?

Families of those who fight for the society are bound to go through this.

Calm down.

You destroyed the dance bars for a better Maharashtra.

But the dance bar owners suffered losses.

Every time you take any decision for the sake of a better Maharashtra.

It will end up in someone suffering personal loss.

And hits will be ordered on you.

Shouldn't we reply to it?

Like this? In rage?

The angrier you get...

The more mistakes you will make.

A reply given with a calm mind.

Can destroy the other person's peace of mind.

No matter how many hits are ordered on you.

Stay calm

and keep moving ahead.

Keeping moving on Eknath.

Don't stop.

Don't ever stop...

Maharashtra will stand with you. Keep moving on.

Only he who he who can digest grief...

Can spread joy to the world…

And...

Be there for the needy.

Be the one people look up to.

Eknath...

Saheb!

Why did you go, Saheb?

You wanted me to be there for the needy.

You said it to me...

Right here.

You've left me an orphan.

Balasaheb also is no more.

Along with us...

Hindutva became an orphan.

Your and...

Balasaheb's Shiv Sena made us bleed saffron.

Today someone is changing the colour of our Shiv Sena.

They are blabbering like fools.

Aurangzeb was a good man?

In Govandi...

A park named after Tipu Sultan?

No to Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar... Why is this happening?

We are made to take oaths with salt in our palms.

Your staunch followers.

Saheb...

Save the party, Saheb.

Our party...

Save it!

Saheb!

Twenty years after my death...

If I have to come back to save the party...

Then why the hell are you still alive?

Alive?

We're alive?

Shiv Sainiks are lifeless corpses impaled by the Alliance.

We are not alive, Saheb.

56 bodies are seen roaming in the corridors of the Mantralaya.

Hailing the alliance.

You think we're alive?

All this...

You're responsible for this, Saheb.

Me?

Yes you!

You are!

Saheb...

Fifty years old.

Is that the age to die?

Did you think I was immortal?

How long should a father

Carry the burden of the plow?

Sons must toil on their own land.

Where are the fields?

You two farmers made such divisions that we were left with just barren land.

How are we supposed to the grow the Hindutva of both your dreams in this desert?

Power changed hands in our party in front of your eyes

A capable successor like Raj Saheb was slighted.

Why didn't you raise your voice?

Why didn't you recognise the successor

that the Shiv Sainik's wanted as their leader?

When we had a storm like Raj Saheb...

Why is the party in the hands of some gentle breeze?

What's in your mind?

You...

What do you want to do?

Tell me Eknath.

Tell me.

I want to get justice for you.

Like Raj Saheb... -He chose his own path.

He formed his own party.

I will also... -Hey!

No!

Our party...

Don't abandon the party and move ahead in life.

And if you want to go...

Carry Hindutva in one arm

And Shiv Sena in the other. And then take strides.

Remember this 'mantra'.

In future, even if I stand between you and Hindutva

Push me aside and embrace Hindutva!

People come...

And go...

But Eknath...

Principles stay forever.

'Dharma protects the protector!'

The ideology of Hindutva...

We have

Learnt it from countless battles.

Go!

Go Eknath...

Before the Ram Mandir is built in Ayodhya...

Rebuild the dilapidated temple of Hindutva in our Maharashtra!

Go Eknath.

'Where there is righteousness; there will be victory.'

Saheb...

I give you my word.

I will not abandon our Shiv Sena.

The story of Saheb's Hindutva doesn't end here...

Hey! Stop!

Where are you going?

Stop!

You're making me chase you...

The 'Vetaal' who asks questions! What are you doing here so late?

Generally...

'Vetaal' roams around at this time.

What is this 'Vikram' doing here at this hour?

This Vikram who had lost his way for two and a half years...

Is finally headed in the right direction.

Is it?

Then answer the question that I asked twenty years ago!

What did you promise at the tenth day rites of Dighe Saheb?

You've waited for twenty years...

What's another twenty days?

Jai Maharashtra. Jai Maharashtra to whom? Shiv Sena?

I have bid adieu to those who deserved it.

Mr. Journalist!

Look closely...

Hindutva and Shiv Sena

Both are with me.

Jai Maharashtra!
