"Whose child is weeping?" "Who dumped the child in this filth?" "I wonder who left him here." "An child born out of illicit sex would end up in such places." "Let's go away." "Remember to administer medicines regularly to the child and mother." "Constable!" "The madam is calling you." "Go and pay this money." " You sent for me?" " A child was born to me last night." "Congratulations." " If a decent man like you... puts the sacred Ganges water in his mouth this child is sure to grow up into a good man." "I cannot expect a holy man to walk into my house." "He wouldn't come?" "Would he?" " Open your mouth!" "Come on!" " You're a nice kid, aren't you?" "Drink it!" "Grow up to be a good human being." "Will he grow up on the strength of your affection or is there a father to care for him?" "Those who visit these brothels have fathers of their own." "But one who takes birth here doesn't have a father." "Such a child is considered as sinful." "A child in your arms!" " I found him in the gutters." "I don't even know where he came from." "Will you leave the infant in some orphanage?" "Now that I've touched him, where is he an orphan now?" "Put some Ganges water in his mouth too!" "I wonder if an infant who has seen filth right from his birth will be able to get to taste the sacred Ganges water?" "It's easy to embrace a stranger, but very difficuilt to make him one's own." "Did you ever consider if your wife would accept him?" "Not at all!" "I can never accept this filth!" "You'd better go and dump him in the same place where you picked him." "How can I dump him just like that?" "One doesn't kick away a living being even if it's only an animal's child." "You'll have to leave me forever." "I wonder whose child it is." "Take care of him, if you like." "You'd better control yourself.." "You shouldn't lift weights." "I'll fnd it tough to care for the weight that you've brought home today." "Look!" "Listen to me!" "Even if you don't consider him as a human being you should at least care for him for the cause of humanity.." "He'll eat some food out of whatever we can afford." "How'll you fend for your own child?" "I'm pregnant now." "If a boy is to be born to us this child will try to snatch the rights of our son." "If a girl is born to us, this child will force her into prostitution." "I promise you..." "I promise you." "Families cannot function on the strength of promises." "I assure you that I won't deprive you of your rights neither will I let our own child be harmed in any manner." "Nobody brings up one's own child along with a snake's child!" "My decision is fnal.." "You're leaving me in the presence of the entire neighbourhood." "You'd better consider it as a separation for ever." "Even if I were to die, you need not come and light my funeral pyre." "Listen to what I've to say." "If you get news of my death, you need not come to see my dead body." "So now you expect this filth in your hands as a replacement." "If this is your last wish, I'll defnitely fulfill it." "I'll defnitely fulfill it." "Friends!" "We'll not let this bastard live here." "If he lives here, it would influence our children adversely." " Come over!" " Leave me!" " Come over, I say!" " Leave me!" "Take this 5 rupees!" "You went to fetch a taxi for this, didn't you?" "What right do you have to instigate people and break families?" " Lay off!" "Will you?" " Don't you shoo me away!" "If I go away, you'll fnd it difficuilt to pay for your booze." "You'd married me to provide for me." "But you're dependent on me now." "If I keep quiet, it doesn't mean that I don't know your source of earnings." "Why're you all staring?" "." "You couldn't become a father yourself.." "But you want to deprive somebody of their support." "The Almighty who has provided the mouth will provide for food too." "It's time for your bath now." "You're my nice kid!" "You're a good kid!" "My son will go to school today." "Do you know the meaning of Ajay?" "Ajay means one who is invincible." "Constable!" "My son didn't get admission on the strength of my name alone." "Would you agree to name yourself." "as my child's father?" "What'll you do by educating him?" "He'll receive education here." "But how'll teach him etiquette and cuilture?" "I stopped soliciting the moment he was born." "I've vacated all the brothels." "What've you named your son?" "Every conceivable song is rendered in your locality.." "Your son's name means hymns." "That's something which is missing in your locality.." "I'm looking at the beginning of my golden future." "Soul can neither be cut by weapons, nor can it be burnt by fre." "Neither can water wet the soul, nor can air dry it." "Ajay learnt about etiquette at home, but at school, both were condemned." "My parents told me that both of them are street urchins." "They experienced hatred and rejection." "They prayed for acceprance and love." "But they continued to bear with insuilts." "You're scoundrels!" "Ajay took to the path where nobody asked him his father's name." "Ajay took to playing cards." "Soon both the kids became aduilts." "There's still ffteen minutes for the exam duration to end." "You could've revised." " I've already revised my studies." " Give it to me." " How can you do that?" " How was your fnal. paper?" " As usual." "Since we're going steady, I've suffered in my studies." " Love is as tough as any exam." " You've passed the exams of love." "Tell me, once you complete the course will you start... a business, or would you settle for a job?" "I'll decide about it once I get the exam resuilts." "But I'm sure of making you my wife." "You'd better make her your wife frst." "If her business begins to flourish, you wouldn't have to work for a living." "I know how to silence people like you." "But it's against my principle to bash up idiots like you." "I'm excusing you once again." "Don't speak to these dogs." "Or they'll bark back at you." "Let them bark!" "Hey!" "Besides barking, we bite too!" "Hit him hard!" "O Lord!" "The crooks uttered the wrong things at the wrong place." "You scoundrel!" "Get out!" "You've been bailed." "You vindicated and released those who were wounded but arrested the one who fought for justice." "The law is ridiculous, really!" "These people were the ones who instigated trouble." "By holding him guilty for such a serious offence my son would be labelled as a criminal.." "His life would be ruined." " Do you want him to be released?" " So that he'd commit murders later." "We'll fght for our sons, and ensure that he is punished." "How long would I be punished for it?" "Anywhere between fve to seven years." "It's a case under section 307." "They're rich people." "Moreover, money influences court decisions." " Hey you!" "How much is 307 minus 5?" " 302." "But why're you asking me about it?" "I'm calculating." "The fve of you'll be beaten for fve times and the fve of you will die thereafter." "I can be punished only once for my crime." "Even a tree dries up if it's accused of committing murders." "Tell me the truth!" "Didn't your deeds deserve to be condemned?" "Murder?" "Father!" "Murder in a police station?" "He'll be punished." "I'm helpless." " If you could pardon my son..." " You don't have to speak like this." "Let me explain the case to you." "We were at fauilt." "It was us who tried to molest her." "We don't want to fght the case." "We withdraw our complaint." "Let's go, and save our lives." "You're a son of a retired policeman." "That's why I ask you..." "Why do you take law into your own hands?" "What's your name?" "Your name is Neelkanth." "But you haven't eaten the poison that's running in my veins." "What kind of a poison?" "How many members does your family comprise of?" "." " My parents and myself.." " Then you won't understand." "It would suffice to inform you that I'm not the policeman's son." "Can we prevent these people from cursing us if we bash them up?" "I'm mistaken." "The nexr time I'll kill them instead of beating them." "So that you may spend the rest of your life behind bars and I would continue to visit you all my life." "Neither did I call you here." "Nor will I call you in the jail." "They are educated and cuiltured people." "Go and mingle with them." "You need not meddle in my affairs." "I'll ask you where're your medals." "You'll say that they are lost." "But the truth is that you've sold them to bail me out." "They've already withdrawn the case." "But you won't be able to recover your medals now." "You've ruined everything." "What do you want to prove?" "I don't want to prove anything." "I did what I deemed ft." " You too didn't prevent him." " Why should I've stopped him?" "If needed, I would've given my ornaments too." "Is material wealth greater than your own son?" "Don't you call me a son." "Everybody knows that neither do I've any relations nor do I consider anybody my relative." "Does our relationship hold no value?" "It could be." "Perhaps that's why you sacrifced your medals for me." "You should've let me rot behind bars." "By going to jail, one doesn't lose one's life." "One who is born will die some day." "Somebody is calling you." " I've heard." "I'm not a deaf.." " Why don't you see who it is?" "The shirt is so dirty." "Don't you ever take a bath?" "One doesn't bath too often." " Ikka has summoned you." " What can I do?" " He's called you." " There's unrest in my house." "Let me settle my matter." "I'll come if I fnd time." " Listen to me..." " I mean to say..." "Your son has burdened me with a favour." "I never asked for it." "Why're you hassling mother?" "I treated it as my duty." "You treat it as a favour." "I've just done my duty." "Stop quarelling now." "Who were those people?" " They were Ikka's men." "I'm the cause of so many births and deaths in this locality.." "Minister, I distribute bribes on the frst day of every month." "Why do you address me as a minister?" "I've been dismissed from the ruling party as well as the opposition." "Now even your own folks don't consider me as an alien." "You're not treated as an alien by the ruling party or the opposition." "That's why you're acting as a conduit between me and them." "One money-bag is for the ruling party, and the other is for the opposition." "Nobody will voice any protests, and nothing will become a hurdle for us." "Everybody in the government is bound to demand money." "This money-bag is meant for you, so that law doesn't arrest us and protect us instead." "The police protects those who pay for it." "Sir!" "Let's go." "Greetings, everybody." "What're you staring at?" "Touch his feet." "Be young, always." "May you have many husbands." "May you thrive always." "What did you say?" " Take the bride upstairs." "What about you?" " You shouldn't disobey your husband." "Come on!" "Go upstairs." "Move aside." "I've delivered you your decoration." "But what about the ornaments that she is wearing." "They'll be delivered to your house tomorrow." "I'll be leaving now." "I'll be marrying again day after tomorrow." " You may go." " All right." "Let's go." "Take this. 500 for you." "Come to pose as the witness." "Peanuts are not enough." "I want the entire lot." "Is it?" "One needs to use the grey cells for that." "Ajay is on his way." "Distribute the cards." "You're very desirous of meeting me?" "Welcome!" "Would you like to play cards?" "I don't gamble." "You need not ask me for refreshments." "Come straight to the point." "I hear that you bash up people with ease." "So what?" "My doors are always open for brave and courageous people." "I pay whatever the price." " I'm not fond of slavery." "Are you short of people?" "I'm not short of anything." "You might be the king of your kingdom." "I'm content as I am." "So what if I'm a poor man." "If the king doesn't need anything, even a poor man doesn't beg around." "Do you know the outcome of not fulfilling my desire?" "Death!" "A butcher's desire alone doesn't kill a cow." "I know that death is lurking all around me." "I'm leaving." " I hear that you... are well-versed with playing cards!" "Chausa is your henchman." "That's why he has given you three kings." "The minister has been given an ace, a two, and a three." "The policeman has been given three jacks." "And the fourth one has been given three sixes." "Chausa himself. has taken a fve, a two, and an eight." "Let's see whether he made the right guesses about the cards!" "Wow!" "He's a useful card player." "Shall I kill him?" "I've already killed 99 people." "By killing him, I can complete a 100." "He's dynamite." "Don't take him too lightly." "He doesn't bother about anyone." "When such a person becomes loyal to you, he can face an entire army." "Constable!" "I've just refused a confirmed job with Ikka." "I was sure to get a job as a bodyguard, at least." "Before any trouble comes our way, you'd better sign on this paper." " A new job again?" " Shanta has arranged a job for you." "If you serve the people, you would be a happy man." "You've proved that love can cripple a person." "You took to playing cards when one is supposed to educate oneself.." "I kept quiet." "I know that bashing up doesn't change a criminal.." "So you were just a kid." "But remember that you've sweared upon me that even if you gamble you'll gamble with me, not with outsiders." "We're able to afford meals by whatever you get through your pension." "Whoever wins, gets to eat the meals." "Loser goes to sleep without eating." "You're sure to retire to bed without eating today." "Here's my stake." "And here's my stake." "This is my move." "I prefer a show." "Show me superior cards." "Or you'll have to sleep hungry tonight." "I concede defeat today." "Scoundrel!" "He lost deliberately today too." "Serve the food." "Ajay has arrived after losing the game." "You were delayed today." "Did you happen to visit Ikka?" "I can visit death if I were asked to." "People like Ikka aren't worth a dime." "Never go to Ikka." "They're very ssarp people." "When they sight a suitable person, they force the person into their trade." "How can he force me?" "I'll break his nose." "Moreover, I'm going to get employed now." " O Lord!" " You keep quiet." "I'll pray to the Lord so that you stick to your job." "You'd better speak to a poor God." "The rich Gods have been cornered by influential and rich people." "I've prayed to the Lord." "A flower has dropped into the plate too." "I'm sure that you'll receive such a job that will bring joy." "So the dispute now is between the job and the God!" "Both of may quarrel." "I'm leaving to attend the duty." "It's your frst day at job." "You'll have to stay amidst dead bodies for 8 hours daily." "I hope you wouldn't be scared." "It's the relatives who're scared of dead bodies." "They consign the dead bodies to flames within minutes." "As far as I'm concerned, I'm not related to the dead bodies." "That's brave of you." "Sir, please give me the document." "I'll let this dead body be taken away." "Excuse me!" "You're new at the job." "The post-mortem of these dead bodies has been completed." "Let these bodies be taken away only after they pay us the taxes." "I'm referring to the bribes." "Do you understand?" "Go with him and check if the relatives of these dead bodies have arrived." "Please help me." "Help me get the body of my son." "My son was run down by a car." "He died within three minutes." "His dead body is rotting since the past three days." "How can I arrange so much money to pay them?" "Please help me secure his dead body." "I beg of you!" "Give all the dead bodies to their relatives." " Did you get the money?" " Yes." "He seems to be experienced." "We'll appoint him permanently." "You may take away all the dead bodies." "What're you doing?" "." "Why did you close the door?" "How much for one dead body?"

"Now if you don't indulge in bribery, it's considered undesirable." "Every profession has become sleazy." "The burden of education..." "The burden of texr books." "At least you managed an assignment of lifting weights." "I'm tired." "Please calculate the amount." " How many pages do your books contain?" " I never counted." "But why do you ask?" "You don't even know the number of pages contained in your book." "Look at me." "I've studied only one book." "It contains only 52 pages." " Can't you hear these shrieks?" " I don't care a damn." " But I can hear them?" " That's because you're educated." "Education has no connection with such matters." "You've received the affection of your mother." "So you should not be too worried." "I feel like shooting down these scoundrels." "Go ahead." "Who's preventing you?" "I remember my mother and stop myself. from doing it." "Her efforts in raising me will go down the drain." "So you should maintain at least one relationship properly." "If God starts accounting for the relationships that are up for sale it would mark the end of relationships." "Greetings, sir." "I've brought this beauty." "Look at her once." "She's my own niece." "Just when she grew up into a young girl, my sister passed away." "I gave her sheilter." "But she'll serve you." "Take her away." "She'll bear all your atrocities patiently." "She's deaf.." " Leave me." " Come on, girl." "We'll keep you in a golden prison." " My gift, sir." " You're amazing, really." "Pick up the amount and get lost!" "Sir, an unrelated girl is worth 5000." "A blood relative should fetch at least 50,000." "I shower unlimited money on the brave ones." "But cowards who demand money are killed by me." "Dump him somewhere." "But be careful, he's a corpse, after all." "Run!" "It's the police!" "Hey!" "Don't move."

"Neither will anyone follow me." "I don't need an army to deal with these crooks." "You're right." "One needs guts, and not an army, to deal with crooks." "I don't need to borrow guts from people like you to fght my battles." "People like you cannot estimate the power of this uniform." "Every person can estimate the power of this uniform." "Every decent human being fears this uniform." "Even if you visit anybody's place as his guest dressed in uniform... ..the entire neighbourhood looks upon the person as a criminal.." "You release our men from your end." "We'll send your parents from our end." "Son!" "No!" "Don't shoot him!" "The entire police department will thirst for our blood!" "Crush him to death."

"He has stumbled into the present age." "The inspector has mentioned only about himself. in his report." "But a crook had mentioned about one more man before he died." "He was none other than Ajay." "By killing them, Ajay hasn't made enemies with us." "In fact, he has come closer to us." "The vacancies created now can be filed up by Ajay's entry." "I'll keep him in my cage." "This dead body has been placed here so that all of you realise that.." "...there are several ways to come to this place." "But one who tries to escape has to go up in the heavens." "Move away!"

"Even if I sell all I have and enter the society. afresh your mother's past will be questioned." "I want to go back to the society." "from where I came into this filth." "That will be possible only when you scale the heights where you get your mother, and neither does society. enquire about her past." "Mother, I'll take you of this filth." "But how is it related to my marriage?" "Truly speaking, it has to do with your marriage." "How'll your wife respect you if a stranger'll make passes at her?" " How many people will you confront?" " Whom are you referring to?" "You need not interfere today." "It's our family affair." "One family affair has made me an alien?" "Our homes might be different." "But we've a common father." "Why don't you explain to him?" "He wants to get married!" "The entire world is entering into matrimony." "What if he marries too?" "I knew that both of you have similar views." "I expected you to take his side." "All right, I'll take your side." "May God never let your son get married in his lifetime." "Are you siding me, or are you cursing me?"

"If it were a daughter, I would give it to her in marriage." "I agree that by selling my mother's sacred necklace, I would be mistaken." "You're very clever, father." "I'm performing the ceremony." "But you'll derive the benefits." "But the truth is that instead of keeping my brother hungry... ..I would not have hesitated to dispose off my own sacred necklace." "Take this sacred necklace."

"We're the bridegrooms." "Where is your daughter?" "Here's your sacred necklace." "Eat the food." "I'm still strong enough to confront you!" "Why've you come?" "Why've you come?" "You robbed me of my husband the moment you were born." "Are you trying to oblige us by returning me my sacred necklace?" "Leave my father!" "What'll you call me?" "Will you address me as Sandhya's mother?" "Only my husband has the right to address me likewise." "How about her?" "Will you call her the daughter of Parvati?" "Leave my father!"

"I wonder what Ajay will do there." "Neither does he eat, drink or meet anyone." " He refuses to meet me too." " You won't understand it, son." "I fear that Ajay might take to violence and bloodshed." " What's the use of it all now?" " I don't know about its uses." "But if Ajay doesn't return, your dream'll never be fulfilled." "You'll not enter the society where I've made the houses." "You'll remain trapped in this filth." "But never ever leave Ajay's company."

"You leave for a foreign country." "I've made all the arangements." "Why?" "Are there no killings abroad?" "If you utter any further nonsense, I'll commit suicide." "Take this." "Go away quickly." "No, you cannot go anywhere." "I won't shoot you in public." "I'll kill you." "But I won't let any harm come to Ajay." "Please make way." "Henceforth, neither of us know each other."
