"One... two..." "I have had enough of washing and cleaning for these festivals" "Yes!" "I want to help you, but..." "I can't even lift my hand." "You can't even lift your hand?" "No I can't." "Curse his rotten hands, how could he hurt you like this?" "Where did he hit me?" "If he had, would I have let him be?" "I would have chopped off his hands with this machete" "That's exactly what you should do." "He came home drunk like a fish." "He didn't have his wits about him." "Even I got angry..." "So when I went to scold him he pushed me away." "See... how I bruised myself when I fell against the grinding stone." "And when he saw me fall, he snapped out of his buzz." "Saying?" "Forgive me Kali, I will never do this again!" "' he swore on me." "Oh... to hell with his promises." "How many times has he already done it?" "All the man in Kiragoor are the same." "They keep swearing on their children." " You said it." "And you actually believed him." "Yes, you are quite right!" "How do we break their habit though?" "Hey, how else?" "We should also start drinking." "Only then these shameless men will change." "He)!" "' you stupid girl." "Beware if you do that!" "Just like this, a woman in my birth village..." "To stop her husband's smoking, she started to smoke herself." "Do you know what happened after that?" "What?" " Its been 2 years since he quit smoking." "But now she needs 2 packs a day." "What if the same happens to you?" "Look here," "If we women start to drink... what will become of our children and homes?" "Don't you dare do such a thing, just get back to work." "Curse that wretched Shankarappa!" "Why did he open that arrack shop?" "Bear with it for a little longer." "Soon we will make our plight known to someone important, and they will show us a way out." "We will wait for such a day." "Our mother, Goddess Kiragooravva is there." "Won't our troubles become known to her soon?" "Which village are you headed to?" "Just to Kiragoor son." "What happened?" "Our daughter has sprained her lower back." "Oh, is that so!" "I am Shankarappa," "I'm a village welfare correspondent." "All the surrounding villages are under my control." "I am sort of a mobile government here." "Anyway, which caste do you belong to?" "We are Lingayais." "Lingayais is it?" "The man who removes the sprain is of a lower caste." "He is a 'Kulavadi' and she is a girl, will you let him touch her?" "Look here son." "Since this happened to our child, we have visited every doctor and prayed at every temple." "Some blessed people told us to go to Kiragoor, so trusting in god we are headed there." "That wasn't what I was trying to say..." "Look son, if he rid my child of this pain..." "Whoever he is, whichever caste he is of." "I will place my head at his feet." "I was just reiterating the general perception, why are you getting mad for that?" "It's getting windy, get going son." "We will take your leave then?" "Okay take it." "This is what I get for trying to be helpful." "Sir, check and see if its okay." "Hey!" " Yes..." "You always make one or the other mistake." "What wrong did I do now?" "See there." "You have removed two more hairs on the left moustache." "Oh its just hair right!" "It'll grow back." "Whatever it be, you can't do it as good as the city folk." "Is it so." "If I get it done by them... the face glows, it glows you know?" "Do you know it, learn it you fool!" "No matter how well I do it, you'll say the same thing." "It seems to be getting windy yet again." "If it blows as hard as it did the other day..." "All the roof tiles will be blown away." "I have worn out my tongue, telling them to fixing the roof tiles." "They keep yapping about doing it then or now." "Even I am fed up telling them the same." "What else are they good for other than yapping?" "When will they ever wise up?" "Hey"- hey girl!" "How much further is Kiragooru?" "You'll reach there before you finish another couple of your poems." "Keep going straight ahead." "Hey slowly...!" "Look girls, people from surrounding villages are coming to Kiragooru a lot more." "Its all to see our Karia." "Nagavva, bring it here quickly." "Take it, he put rolled a two." "To hell with you, why couldn't you shake it nicely before you rolled it." "Hey, I did shake it." "If that is all that came, what can I do?" "Oh a cart has come... a cart has come." "Hey stop and come to the side." "Stop it, stop it." "Come here you scoundrel!" "Greetings all." "Which village are you from?" "Near Ravandra." "Who is the one with a sprain?" "Its our daughter." "Run and get Karia, tell him they have come by cart." "Okay I'll get him." "Tie the ox to the side." "Who is the one with a sprain?" "Hey stop your vehicle and stand aside!" "See how all the chicken flew away!" "Will you eat something?" "Take it..." "Swallow it." "For what reason has our king come this far?" "Black, black, Karianna they have come by cart come quickly." "Oh so you came to see Karia?" "He is there, go." "Go and get him." "Black, black, Karianna they have come by cart come quickly." "What is the hurry, tell them I'll come in the evening." "Oh no, they have come by cart." "Then say that." "Come leis go." "Kiranna, make me a Chinnidaan" " I will make it, first you go." "Oh, this wretched wind!" "What is its problem?" "Hold your pail..." "Why the hell she laughing like a fool?" "Oh God, it's becoming difficult to manage my sari also." "Oh can't you even catch a hold of it." "They will pluck the eyes out." "How well had you draped the sari?" "It went flying away with the millet." "Damn this wretched wind!" "Look how she is laughing." "Look at the plight!" "The wind went in and out and all over you and made you bare!" "Why did you let it in anyways?" "See now what the wind did to you!" "You bloody!" "Why are laughing like that?" "You also have what I have." "Hey, ifl had what you do would I laugh?" "What the hell you, let me hear you say it once again!" "You bloody, what did you say?" "Say it again!" "It means the same every time I say it!" "I said, ifl had what you do would I laugh?" "Don't just bark at me!" "Give it to me!" "Will you ever talk about me again?" "You bloody, did you just you throw millet on my face?" "What the hell then?"

"You jumped on me like a cat, you!" "Oh this bloody thing!" "You ripped off my cloth!" "Hey let go off my husband's shirt!" "Let go!" "Oh no, you ripped my husband's shirt!" "Look what I will do to you now!" "I'll rip all your's and your husband's clothes off." "You mounted me like a mad dog, you bitch!" "Both of you stop!" "Or at least get your asses off the millet." " I won't let here go!" "What, will I let you live?" "Sister, please let her go!" "What you, you dare to sit on me?" "On top of Kali!" "I'll rip your limbs off and hand it to you!" "Hey go and get Daanamma." "Let go of my Sari you bitch!" "Oh wow!" "Look at them man." "My heart is racing bro." "Stop the cycle, leis look at..." "Daanamma sister!" "Look here, Kaali and Rudri are fighting and stripping each other." "You pleases come and stop them!" "Okay, let go." "Yes go!" "Its like when a jobless man sit around spanking arse." "That is what they are doing." "Who the hell is that?" "What are you staring at, like a kid looking at candy?" "Don't you have sisters or mothers at home?" "No its just our cycle chain..." " Damn you...!" "Cover your asses and get lost." "Look how she is shouting!" "What were we staring at her?" " Shut up and come." "If I ever see you here again, I'll spank you buttocks red!" "Move aside... these crazy women...!" "Hey, let go of her!" "Let go!" "Let go I say!" " What, let go of her?" "Let go." "Hey Kali!" "Let go of me sister, I'll teach her some manners!"

"Nagi, get me some water." "What is your problem?" " Raging like mad bulls!" "Daanamma!" "Take it, drink some water you shameless girl." "Listen, what is inside our sari must remain hidden." "Can we show and talk about it in public?" "Look at this, she keeps trying to disrobe me!" "Crazy bitch!" "What then?" "She says mine is different from her's." "Come you, let me see how it is so!" "Yes, you come if you dare!" " Hey, go!" "Go over there!" "You're a crazy bitch, you entire family is bonkers!" "Look at how you sari is, go and drape it properly!" "Go Now!" "Hey you, you escaped because Daanamma came here." "Otherwise I would have read you your last rites." "Brother please be gentle." "The pain is killing me!" "Its almost done, Just bear with me a bit longer." "I gave way!" "Mother, our goddess Kirgooravva has removed your daughter's pain." "Is her sprain completely gone?" "Can she walk now?" "Yes mother, most definitely!" "Please hold this." "Once Karia touches her, not only can she walk," "She can skip all the way back to your village." "Thank god you can stand up straight." "Oh no!" "How can I, please no!" "Our goddess Kiragooravva has blessed their family so that they can help people..." "It'll will be a mistake if he takes money for that." "Then, don't we need to give anything?" "Oh no, nothing!" " Okay then!" ""In a lake of milk, let your procession go on"" ""The mother of Kiragoor, safe guard these children"" ""The mother of Kiragoor, safe guard these children"" "Don't show your prowess where it's necessary!"

""Who are you?" "Where did you come from, which village?"" "Hey Kala, drink in small portion will you!" "Shut you pie hole!" "To drink in small portions like you, do I have kids or children...!" "Kala brother, will everyone have kids as soon as they get married?" "You must be patient." "Shut it!" "Four years..." "Its been four years!" "All of these guys got me married to that barren cow." "KaalaPPa Yes!" "H let me say something." "Don't we all considered this Byrappa's son Raj as our own?" " Yes, yes!" "Do the same and don't worry!" "Look Kaalappa... aren't my kids are like your kids?" "Weren't they born and grown in front of your own eyes?" "Have they ever considered you a stranger?" "Till you have your own, consider them as your kids." "What do you guys $33!" "?" "We should see everything with a pure heart, Kaalappa!" "Okay then, I will agree!" "All your kids are mine as well!" "But... don't I deserve a child of my own?" "Kama, don'!" "you worry." "We will find some medicine to cure your problem." "Who will you get medicine for?" "What will you get medicine for?" "!" "I will wait for a few more days, that's it!" "Then, I will get married a second time!" "A second marriage?" "!" "He)!" "' keep quite!" "If only your wife hears of this...!" "Damn, you killed my buzz!" "If they women hear you say this, they will grate you brains out like they grate coconuts" "Then what the this did I get married for?" "To satisfy my sexual desires huh?"

"A drunkard putting a child to sleep." "What is the news?" "You were all that was missing!" "Come sit" " Why do you say so?" "You come only to collect the money by closing time." "You said you'll bring a market place to your village, and that you will give a request to the government." "What have you accomplished, huh?" "You are a big cheat!" "Yes, yes you are right. he is a cheat." "Hey, stop talking nonsense and shut up!" "Okay..." "Who am I?" "Who am I, Who do you think I am?" "Bar owner, Shankarappa." "Hey, not that you fool!" "What is my job?" "That is it!" "You and that sorcerer get us drunk and take our money!" "You are the money-grubbing village welfare correspondent." "I'll kick you head of you son of a..." "The government hasn't appointed me to grub money." "It is to serve you all!" "The government has asked me to bear the responsibility of a dozen villages." "Without me, there is no connection to the government and these villages." "I'm the link between the government and these villages." "Hey you Kaalappa, why do you keep shouting 'Weekly Market' over and over again?" "We can't even count the number of villages in this state." "All of them have applied for a market place." "The government has promised to sanction it." "You must wait patiently." "Instead, you all drink and talk whatever rubbish you want." "Hey..." "How many crates did you order today?" " Brother?" "Three!" "Patience, patience, patience!" "Everywhere its the same thing." "Hey what the hell!" "She comes in the night like a ghost to scare me." "She won't even let me sleep peacefully!" "She strokes my face, bloody hell!" "Look Nagi, it no use doing it over and over again!" "Haven't your parents thought you anything?" "How many times do we need to sow?" "If the land is fertile, once is more than enough!" "If it is not, then every time it'll be the same!" "Do I like hurting you?" "What can I do if you are barren!" "What else can you call an infertile cow other than infertile." "Now, don't you want to see a child playing around this house?" "Is it wrong if I wish for that?" "That's why I said it, do something and convince your parents!" "First go and talk to your friends." "This it, this is not Kaale Gowdas fault, its all on me." "Convince them that there is nothing wrong in getting married a second time for having kids." "You will also feel better and a child will finally grace this house." "Sweetheart, how much longer can I only see you once a week in the market?" "Do as I told you." "Gowda, let me see you catch me." "Take you walking stick and come behind me." "If you run like this I'll grow old by the time I catch you." "You are my sweetheart, stop!" "My sweet butternut, please stop!" "How much ever you butter me up, its final!" "You like the city, right?" "That's why I say..." "be brave." "Leis elope!" "Now, if we run away to Mysore or Bengaluru..." "No one will be able to find us, you know?" "There I'll set up a flowers shop for you and find work somewhere." "After a couple of years, once we have had kids, we will visit our village once every year." "Please be generous, I can't live without you sweetheart." "Why do you keep talking this nonsense?" "You always keep asking to elope." " Bhagya...!" "What mistake did I say now?" "How many time to tell you that I'm not the kind to elope?" "If do that, my mother will jump into some well or tank." "You keep pestering me, but when she can't live with you." "Why is she still tormenting you?" "What is her problem in accepting you getting married again?" "What are you searching for?" "Its nothing." "I'll try to convince her somehow." "Somehow convince her before the next marriage season." "Otherwise my mother will get me married to someone else." "Don't say that, my heart will burst!" "Let me go." "I won't listen to anything." " Listen to me first." "Sit down." "How can I bear such harsh words?" "I was lucky that I got you, or else I would have drunk some poison and died!" "Oh, don't say that now!" "Can I say something?" " Yes..." "I liked you a lot the first time I saw you in the market." "You are the only one who in the market wearing black suit." "Only then I came to know that you are married, and your wife is not well." "What is it?" "What can I do?" "I was a naive young man." "They forced me to marry that beast of a woman." "You keep touching me." "Hey, what is this?" "It feel soothing, my heart feel so happy!" "When you touch it, it goes ring-ring." "Naagi..." "Hey Naagi!" "Why are you sitting there like that?" "Her head is haunted, with the thought of not having had a child." "Talk some sense into her." "How many years has it been since you got married?" "Just 4 years, isn't it!" "My sister-in-law hadn't conceived even after 8 years." "Now she has had 2 beautiful children." "You both tell me." "If she keeps such a dull look, which man will want to come near her?" "Tell her that again." "Her husband, that Kaalegowda is also always the same way." "Even my husband was acting like this." "I taught him a lesson just few days ago." "What did you do sister?" "Do you know what happened?" "What happened sister?" "Hey Subba!" "In the early days you used to butter me up for sex every now and then...!" "Now what happened?" "That is how it is when it's new." "If we do it daily it feels laborious." "It is only when we do it once in a while, it gives us pleasure." "It's getting late just go to sleep." "So, you feel loving me is laborious." "Then leave it." "I'll call someone, 'Please somebody come..." "My Lord Subbayya, feels it laborious to love me..." "Will the gods be pleased if I work my lord?" "Somebody come and do this work please!" "'" "What did you say?" "Then what happened?" "What did Subbayya do?" "What did Subbayya do?" "He said you are might even do what you say and fell at my feet." "Then he said I'll do it whenever you ask Daani." "Daanamma sister, then what happened that night?" "Ah, as if I need to explain everything to you, you know better." "Shut up and come out of the water." " How much longer will you bathe?" "Look how beautiful our Nagi looks when she smiles." " Nagamma..." "That is it!" "Men are like children." "They cry if the want something and if they don't." "We should make plans to go through it all." "Do you understand?" "What Subbayya, don't we have families to feed?" "You are still talking about these ancient wages!" "What are you saying Karia, you are demanding wages as you please?" "Okay then!" "We will just take whatever you please and work for you for the rest of our miserable lives." "Will you be happy then?" "What Karia, you are you such big-big words?" "You will please keep you mouth shut!" "Subbayya, the 3 of us have to share what you give us." "Please talk straight will you." "Don't saying anything else..." " Hey!" "If you talks keep escalating, will the work get done?" "Look, I'll give a fair judgment." "Just agree upon it." "Okay then, tell us what it is?" "Now you have to fell the tree and chop it into pieces." "For that you take 1 and a half-quintal of Ragi." "Hey, we are asking for three quintals." " How is this fair?" "Why are you acting like this Karia, let him finish!" "Hey don't be hasty, listen to me first." "One and a half quinial of ragi and 20 additional." "On top of that we will pay for 2 days at the arrack shop, what Subbha?" "Okay." "Okay than, what else can we do?" "Who else will do this other than us?" "We will start chopping from tomorrow." "Tell him that." "Yes, yes!" "Hey let it go, just get to work." "You keep doing this." "Hey why do you say that?" "TO hell With this!" "How did this tree fall down?" "Its must roots must have been shaken out in that crazy wind that blew the other day." "Couldn't it have stood for another day?" "Its for the best." "Now we don't have dig out the roots." "If those Gowdas learn of it, they'll a part cut of our wages." "Hey shut up, why will they do that?" "Why will we not?" "I came and checked it out in the morning itself." "Since you no longer have to fell the tree, leis go back to my offer of 1 quintal, don't argue about it." "Hey Subbayya..." " Maaranna, don't say anything." "If you agree, then start working." "We came just close before losing out, Maaranna." "Hey..." "Karia!" "What can anyone do if this is our fate?" "Get down, we have to start working." "What kind of man are you, offering just 1 quintal." "Hey Karia, hold it loosely." "Hey, how can a let loose the saw is stuck." "Is the saw stuck." " What else?" "Push, push it hard and set it free." "It won't budge." "Hold on." "Now pull it out, pull it!" "Maaranna, look at this." "My saw... it broke of Maaranna!" "Is this tree possessed?" "My saw broke of in my hands." "Look at them, they have broken up my saw." "Oh to hell with you, you good for nothing bloody fool." "Instead of breaking useful tools why don't just get lost." "What, did we break it deliberately." "It broke, why are you shouting?" "It wouldn't if you knew how to use it properly." "Yes, look at him standing there!" "Shut you mouth dear!" "Look at how much ego you have!" "Hey Karia!" "What are you saying, mind you tongue!" "Has he ever seen us show our ego, you wretched man!" "They broke my saw and now they are calling us names." "Come you bloody Karia, if you don't bring back my saw the way it was I'll scratch your face off!" "You worthless bugger, came here to chop a tree..." " Get going you..." "Bloody bugger, bring back my saw the way it was." "Why do you waste your breath with these fools?" "That was a saw I brought as dowry." "He has broken it and he is calling me names." " Get, go, go on." "I'll take care of him, you come home you bugger." "Hey Maaranna..." "they are quite the women." "The ego is bubbling out of their veins." "All because of this Daanamma's influence." "It has become a village of rowdy women." "This government's torture is become unbearable Shankrappa." "They are asking me to show them a organic farm, what will I show them?" "This field-day is becoming a big pain in the neck." "I had even made arrangements with Siddha to show his land." "First he had agreed, but then he absolutely refuse to me putting a board in his land." "You had said there is a land belonging to someone named Maara, right?" "Yes but it is very small, they are asking for an acre of land." "Okay, but tell me who has land next to his." "That land, it belongs to Kaale Gowda." "Hey Shankarappa... till the officials visit, plant a board in Maara's land." "When they do come, tell then its all one organic farmland." "Then just throw that board away." "Wow, that is the best idea." "I'll do it." "Don't tell Maara anything about this." "Oh no, I won't!" "Once its over I'll just get them a couple of drinks on the house." "Oh no, this filthy rotten thing." "Someone has planted a board in my field." "Which son of a gun put it here?" "Who was it, if I get my hands on you I'll break all your limbs." "Curse your wretched family. damn you!" "Did you only find my fields?" "Hey, hey Maara." "Its mine..." "Its mine, why did you... damn...!" "Hey why is Maaranna shouting like that?" "Come leis take a look." "Its my board, why are you stomping on it?" "So this is your doing?" "What have I done to you?" "Why did you put it on my land?" "Why?" "What is your problem with this board being there?" "In a weeks time I'll get you 100 rupees subsidy." "Listen to me Shankarappa!" "Don't try to entice me with your words!" "Today you put a board here, tomorrow if the bank or government come and seize my land..." "Then what will I eat or earn." "Just get the hell out." "Hey, give that here." " Take it!" "Adjust a little bit, protect my dignity." "Should I give my life to protect your dignity?" "I have seen your kind before!" "Its not like that Maara, listen..." "I will never let you plant this board here, that's final!" "Hey listen, higher officials are coming." "Just adjust a bit." "That is you plan, higher officials will come and seize this small land given to my father by Kaalappa's father." "I'm putting this here to benefit all of you." "These are government policies." "You should become beneficiaries of those schemes." "Hey, when he is refusing why are you compelling him?" "Keep quite, don't interfere." "You are new to our village, but have take complete control of everyone here." "We men are talking here." "Hey Maara, what are you doing here instead of chopping the tree?" "Go, we'll take care of this." "But that board..." "I told you go right?" "Go!" "Okay, I'll go." "Now talk to them." "Hey what is that you were saying?" "Say it again!" " Hey wait!" "Hey you, first you remove those dirty glasses and then talk." "Why?" "I have been observing, we can never know where you are staring at us when you talk." "Hey!" "What is this, you spew whatever nonsense you feel like!" "These are glasses Modi doctor gave me after an eye operation." "What operation was that?" "Your stare is still not good." "Hey, what are you saying?" "I am a welfare correspondent for 10 villages." "Day and night I always think of your welfare and you are talking ill of me!" "Then what is this?" " Its organic farming board." "Government project." "All I want is to fix it here, but you are acting like this." "Just cause its a government board, can you fix it anywhere?" "Kaalamma, Durgamma, please get back!" " Please..." "Ah!" "Sister..." "what this man fell just by our touch." "Let him fall, that is all he knows." "Come let's go." "Hey, come on Durgi." "How long will you look at him in that dead frog pose!" "What are you staring at?" "Go and get some butter." "Hey are you done?" "Wait, its not coming out!" "Hey look, its a butterfly!" "Hey its a police jeep, run every one!" "Hey wait for me!" "Run, run." "Hey you guys run faster!" "Come on run!" "Hey uncle, its a police jeep." "Its a police jeep!" "Its a jeep, a jeep is coming!"

"Daani come here." "You dog faced fool, when did you come and hide here." "Damn you, is this how a man behaves?" "How can you hide like this in the grainery?" "Lower your voice a bit!" " Why the hell should I lower my voice?" "To hell with you, first come out of there!" "Have I done something wrong, to close the doors?" "Shut up, I'll go out and see what they'll do." "Sir, not a single man is out here." "Had we gone to steal their property?" "Daanamma!" "Daani!" "I will see what the hell will happen." "Are you sure this is the village?" "Yes sir, this is it." "You fellows don't make a proper study." "Go and enquire with her." "Hello." "Is there nobody at home to talk to?" "Who the hell do you want?" "Its no like that, as today is the field day." "Please come here and talk to our sir." "Why the hell should I come and talk?" "and who the hell is your sir?" "My sir is inside." "Shut up and get lost!" "Look, its an official matter."

"This is my last warning, can't you understand." "Go!" "What are you looking at?" "Get going already!" "Oh god, start the jeep I say!" "Yes get back in you vehicle, go!" "Hey get the jeep going brother!" "All of this villagers are uncivilised people." "And illiterates!" "If you step here again, I'll break you legs." "Bloody Buggers!" "Talk to our sir he says, flighty buggers!" "This is the first time in my career!" "She... was showing me that... what is that?" "What do you call that thing?" "Wet flour stick." " Wet flour stick she is showing me!" "Bloody cheats!" "They weren't even wearing police uniforms." "Hey Subba!" "Come outside, the jeep is gone!" "Go and bring father back." "I'm talking to you, the jeep is gone come out." "Wait, I'll take care of you." "I keep shouting, you are acting deaf?" "Hey get the hell out!" "Just listen." " What is it?" "Once you went outside, I got really scared and I wet myself." "Oh my Subbayya!" "My Lord" "Why are you so afraid of a wrong you haven't done?" "I'll get you a fresh pair of shorts, please go and find your father." "Okay." " My sweet lord Subbayya!" "This is highly irregular behavior I say!" "But insulted us at the hands of a woman." "I'll complaint against him!" "Showing wet flour stick." "Sir, that fellow is coming sir." "Hey stop, stop the jeep." " Stop the jeep man!" "Our department person is coming, stop the vehicle." "Stop the vehicle." " Go and question him." "Go fat, go!" "Hey you weren't there at the village, where the hell did you go?" "Put him in his proper place, bloody idiot!" "Throw your garland in the garbage!" "Don't deny it sir, please accept sir." "This one time please!" "This is our tradition, please!" "What do you think of me?" "You said they would welcome me with garland..." "But do you know what happened?" "But sir I was waiting for you near the gate, and you are coming from the rear entrance." "Some... ungrateful women, she was bad-mouthing me." "Using all kinds of foul language." "Who does she think I am?" "What was she showing me?" " Sir, Wet flour stick!" "Wet flour stick, she is showing me a wet flour stick!" "No sir, I have made special arrangements for you..." "What special...?" "I will report this." "You will be thrown out of service." "I'll get you dismissed and make you sit at home." "Oh no, sir I beg of you sir, please!" "Its not my fault sir, we had selected a Dalit's land for the organic farming project." "But the Gowdas in the village didn't let us do anything." "Not only that, because I tried to help... see." "See here how they beat me up, see." "Look at my legs." "I'm really sorry, please don't abandon me." "Don't dismiss me please sir!" "Atrocity and assault, section 324." "Read with 3 clause 1" " Atrocity and assault case." "Get up, I say, get up." " Stand up." "You file a criminal case against that lady." "Also file a case on that Gowdas." "And also that wet flour stick that was in that lady's hand." "Did you understand?" " Come let's leave." "Start the jeep brother." "Please visit again." "I will never forget this." "In my career I have never seen..." " Wet flour stick sir!" "Get lost." "Take this garland back." "Go and file the complaint first." "I have never seen such a thing..." "hey what is that" " Wet flour stick sir!" "Hey forget that thing." "How many officers like you I have seen." "Hey go to hell." "Hey why are you so scared, I'm here right?" "Sit down uncle and first calm down." "I'm a bloody fool." "In my hurry I have got my wife's skirt instead of my shirt." "Hey shut your monkey business." "its already noon." "We don't know what happened in the village." "Hey, someone go and take a look." "Oh yeah why not, so that they can take us to bang up." "Oh, I am telling these coward buggers." "Kaalappa..." " Yes." "You are the only one who goes to market." "Have you done some petty cheating there that the jeep has come." "I'll kick you head off, if you put this on me!" "Take back your words." "I'm a businessman, I'll never commit such mistakes." "Okay!" "Dad...!" "Hey come leis run." "Maaranna!" "He is calling my name, who is it?" "Hey... it's our Subba." "The police jeep is gone, come back now." "Hey Subba, didn't you run away with us you bugger?" "Ah, look and him prancing here now!" "Hey, I didn't run away." "Daani didn't let me." "She scared and sent the jeep away!" "Is it so?" " Really?" "Really!" "She said you must leave right now and they left." "Are they really gone?" "See the power of my daughter-in-law!" "Hey keep quite sir, first enquire how a police jeep came to our village." "That is what I been trying to tell you, that was the Tasildar's jeep." "Without waiting to think you all ran helter-skelter." "What can I do, is that my fault?" "Hey Shankarappa, if you had done something bad?" "We would have boiled your head in hot water." "Hey he just petty welfare servant, where does he have that much guts." "Shut up and go!" "Why are you tensed for just this Shankarappa?" "How many village I have been to and experienced all the cultures!" "Just to control 18 villages I have left my family and roam..." "But these are cheap buggers sir." "That Karia, he used to wag his tail pet dog now he is barking at me." "He says he will break open my head!" "That is why Shankarappa..." "I say demons must exist." "If demons exist, people and society will be in their limits." "If there are no demons people will nail the gods to the walls." "Look, you pit this caste against that one and that one against this one." "Then you will see the fun." "Do you think its okay to do caste politics in the village?" "Oh, why do you ask that Shankara...?" "You haven't learned the sensitivity of duty." "If Lord Krishna in the Bhagwadgeeta... the one who plans and executes everything... had advised Arjuna not to fight and take part in the war, instead go home and sleep... would it have been as good?" "No." "If that had indeed happened..." "Mahabharata wouldn't have happened, and this country wouldn't have existed!" "Fighting is sustenance for demons." "What is it?" " Food, sustenance." "You do what the Tasildar told you." "Give a complaint to the police, they too are like us." "They know well that demons need to exist, so that they can survive." "You go with a single agenda and call upon Narayana!" "Sir, should I really call upon him?" "When I am with you, why do you worry?" "Just call him!" "It doesn't have any strength at all." "Will anyone say this a compliant, you should write it with more of an punch." "As soon as he sees it, you inspector should say 'Go and drag their asses her immediately' write it again." "Now that the ink has fallen, see how the words will flow." "Yeah, leis see." "We are scared stiff of police stations, go Narayana we won't come." "Oh no, our sir said if it was something serious I would order you to round them up." "Its nothing important, so just go and ask them politely." "He just wants to take a statement from you." "That may be Narayana, but we haven't taken loans from anyone." "Why are you calling us for no reason?" "How do I make you understand?" "It's respectable to go when he calls you." "I'll tell you one thing..." "You are making mountains out of molehills." "Why this discussion, if you don't trust me then I'll shut up and leave..." "Yes, that is what they are saying..." "Why are you tormenting them?" "They won't come, get lost!" "To come as soon as you call, are our men those...?" "Hey, why are you nagging him?" "What do you know about our Narayana." "If we go with him, will he let any harm come to us." "What Narayana?" "What golden word you spoke Byrappa!" "Inspector will be here today and somewhere else tomorrow." "It is we who will see each other everyday, right?" "Why go that far?" "If in the station any one of you... feel even a pinch or a scratch, you can call me a bastard from now on." "See..." "Hey, what are you saying Narayana?" "What more assurance can I give you Daanamma?" "Okay...!" "You must bring them back safe and sound, or else you'll have to answer to me." "Daanamma, you are new to this village." "This Narayana has never abandoned those who trust him, what?" "Till they get ready to leave, kindly make me a cup of coffee." "Trust me, I'm there!" "Come quickly." "Sir." " Yes!" "I have rounded up those Kiragoor rascals, sir!" "Kick them into the cell!" "All their worthless stupid assess." "Go on." "Hey gel 90TH?" "!" "Oh he come here wearing a suit, strip all of you morons." "Hello." "Really...?" "Hey Narayana, come!" "Yes sir, I'm coming." "Which case?" "I don't know, that Narayana ahs brought them." "Is it worth something?" "I don't think its something big." "Must be some petty case." "How much longer do you want to stand like this?" "Go on sit, come." "This was all that was left, now we seen this as well." "Hey, are all your noses blocked shut?" "Its stinking... damned urine pit!" "Were you expecting a palace?" "That it won't stink, huh?" "You have to do everything here itself." "Who might you be?" "No, I was wondering why you were here?" "Me...?" "You are asking why I have come here, are you?" "There was a man Range Gowda, in Doddekoppla village!" "Do any of you know him?" "He was eyeing my wife." "Bloody hell, I took a big stone and dropped it on his head!" "They won't even let us eat in peace." "The skull cracked open." "I collected it with these very two hands!" "And came straight to the station." "Byra brother..." "Byra brother!" " Please don't." "Murder..." "Homicide!" "I'm in here for homicide!" "And you are asking why I'm in here?" "Why are you shouting?" "Have we tortured you yet?" "When we heard what he has did, we got terrified." "What has he done?" "Murder..." "he has committed a murder, sir!" "What... murder?" "!" "Is that what you told them?" "He went to Rangegowda's house to steal." "Hey let it go no sir." "But the women of that house caught him and handed him to us." "Is this a face of a murderer?" "Sit silently, don't pester us!" "Where the hell did he bring them from?" "You bluffed so much, how come?" "Brother, it is because." "Who respects thieves?" "But when you say murderer, what respect?" "Now, in my house, the streets, why even in the station and courts nobody respects me." "But when I say I'm a murderer, what respect?" "A thief never gets the respect that is given to a murderer!" "Now look at yourself." "Once you came to know I'm a thief... how easily you talking down to me." "But if I was a murderer, would you dare to face me when you talked to me?" "Oh, forget about me." "What are you in for?" "We don't even know that!" "Is it so?" "Then its fixed." "Its definitely fixed!" "What does that mean?" "When they don't catch any cases, they bring in someone like you and fix them as cattle thieves." "That is called fixing!" "Oh Uncle, we've become cattle thieves!" "How will we ever go back home?" "Uncle, how can I ever show my face in the market again?" "Take the buggers and shove them in!" "Okay sir." "Sir, we have dealt them a proper beating!" "Very good, go and get some rest." "What should we do with them sir?" "What is there to do, lock them up." "Let them rot in that urine pit!" "But there is no more room there!" "Why is that?" "We locked up four men in the morning sir!" "There was one thief in there, who the hell are these four?" "You told us to lock them up sir!" "Okay do one thing, drag those four men out here." " Okay sir." "Who are you 9113/5?" "What is your case?" "Filthy buggers, what is your case?" "We swear, we don't know anything sir!" "Damn you buggers, not even knowing your case you are standing here." "What do you guy do?" " We are all farmers sir." "Farmers?" "But none of you look like farmers!" "Give me you hands, show it to me!" " Here take this one sir!" "How smooth your hands are, you bloody buggers!" "Your hands don't look like those who work in fields." "They look like thieves who steal and pickpockets in markets!" "Narayana you please tell sir who we are." "What is that...?" " Sir, I had told you that day..." "Kiragoor, complaint!" "Yes sir." " I remember." "Now I remember!" "You worthless buggers!" "Instead of keeping to yourself why the hell do you go about troubling those Dalits, why?" "Look, if you ever go troubling those Dalit Kulavadi again..." "I will break you limbs, file an atrocity case on all of you and lock you up for life!" "Hey, have you given them the treatment?" "No sir." "You haven't, then give it here." "Once you come here you have to take treatment and get going." "Sir, there was no mistake on my part..." "Hey you keep quite!" "What did you say?" "Mistake..." "Mistake, hold you hands out!" "Hey come here." "Come here I say!" "Give them treatment till they can't take it anymore." "I'll go and rest." "Sige Gowda..." "Kaalappa!" "You have even forgotten your clothes." "Take it please." "When our sir told me everything I couldn't believe it." "The Daliis of your village have given a compliant against you and betrayed your trust." "I have explained to my sir that they are not those kind of people and got you released." "Be careful, don't interact with them anymore." "Narayana sir is calling for you" " I'm coming." "Okay then leave, don't look back." "Get to you village safely." "Kaala..." "keep calm." "Don't cry, keep calm." "If you cry even I fell like crying, stop it." "How can I not cry?" "We shouldn't leave it like this, uncle!" "Let's call a Panchayat meeting." "Let's enquire who gave the complaint against us and why?" "Stop it already, I have had enough of all of this nonsense." "What if during the Panchayat enquiry, someone on our side gets hyper and hits someone on their side." "Who will be blamed for that?" "We will have to rot all our live in that urine pit!" "Then what else do we do, I can't bear the insult that has happened to us." "Whom can we share our sufferings with?" "Mother..." "Kiragooravva!" "Karia, Maara and..." "Siddha." " Yes, yes Siddha!" "They have given the complaint against you." "You don't talk properly with them," "Don't provide them with enough drinking water," "You don't touch them and constantly insult them as lower caste that is what they have said in their complaint." "We?" "Are not touching them?" "Yes my DOV" "Hey, we wake up drunk together in the bar everyday!" "Shankarappa you tell him." "It is not about drinking together day and night." "They are infuriated that you are nor paying them proper wages." "Oh what?" " ls this true...?" " Really!" "Many a times they have discussed this when you are not there at the bar." "I have heard it myself." "But if I had come and told you this earlier would you have believed me." "Hey, now there is no use talking about it Shankarappa." " Exactly!" "This is like a disease..." "An unwanted disease." "This is not the time to think how it came to be." "You must think about how to cure it." "You must guide us as to what we should do." "If you all agree and write off 30 sq. feet of each of your lands..." "I make their tongue rot and fall off!" "I'll make their limbs useless and paralayse them permanently." "No please Swami, let that never ever happen." "Karia, Maar and Siddha... have grown up with my sons since they where this big." "Let them never get harmed." "It will curse my kids and grand kids." "Then, what am I supposed to do now?" "We will get you two quintals of rice and ragi each, just make it so that the demons that have possessed them, never come our way again, that is enough!" "It can done." " Sissy little men!" "Look, on the name of my lord the Ugra-Byrava..." "Solemnly swear to never repeat a word that we have spoken in here." "Out there to any other soul." " Yes, yes do it." "It is for the best." "Hey, you can't even tell you wife and kids." "If you do your entire family will be cursed!" "In the name of Lord Byrappa, we will never tell anyone." "Maaranna pull it with a bit more force." "But it's struck." " There goes Kaalappa saw." "Oh damn this tree to hell." "What are we to do now?" "What kind of tree is this?" " I have no idea!" "Come leis have a smoke, Siddha... chop it up quickly" "Oh Kaalappa, he said he would take you for a few minutes but its seems Narayana kept you all night." "Oh see our plight. ls this a demon tree?" "We might loose our love trying to free this second saw that got struck." "Demon tree or not...!" "We will take out our saw shut up and get lost!" "What Gowda sir, what do you mean 'get lost'?" "It means get the hell out of here!" "Yes, we've had enough of your gratefulness." "Come uncle, boys leis go!" "Look at these buggers acting if they know nothing at all." "But what happened?" "Kaalappa..." "Hey Kaalappa!" "What do they mean by 'our gratefulness' Maaranna?" "Hey, don't you know about them?" "They are always hasty bugger." "That too that Kaalappa is crazy a bugger." "We spent three days chopping this wood, now who will pay us the wages?" "Who else will they find in this village to cut this tree?" "Come leis finish the work." "We are half way there." "Come on!" "They have said get lost, look Maaranna, I going." "If they want to, let them come and call us!" "Come Siddha." "Let them come and chop their own tree." " Hey, listen to me...!" "Karia..." "Karia!" "Hey, why are you like this?" "What are they little kids?" "They'll come back soon!" "Ah, speak of the devil, they are here!" "Gowda sir, where did you go to all night?" "Your women folk got fed up waiting for you." "Now we are here right?" "Shut up and get going." "I've had enough of your pestering, asking me where I had gone!" "Oh, what has happened to this Gowda?" "What the..." "They have walked all that way, so they must be worn out." "You both get going, I'll see what it is." "Go on." "I'll meet you later, go on." "Oh okay. take out the butter though." "Bye." "Lord knows what happened to this Subbayya!" "Hey, aren't they like our family, why did you tell them to leave?" "Stop thinking of them as family, now shut up and go inside." "Hey what are you possessed or something?" "You please keep your mouth shut dear." "It is not us who are possessed, its them." "All these days have we ever talked back to anything you have said?" "Look my child, don't come poking this one time." "Only we know how we managed to escape with our life in our hands." "Stop asking question and get the water boiling." "What are you looking at, go!" "Hey, why are you fretting over such a small matter?" "Is there no one else who knows how to chop wood." "Have you heard of sawmill owner Krishne Gowda?" "Who is that?" " Who?" " Hey I hear his name in the market, go on." "He uses an elephant in the mill to move logs." "Really an elephant?" "Hey Byra, I told you about the Krishne Gowda's elephant in the market." "Oh yeah." "The other thing is." "He uses a unique man to do the work that the elephant can't." "My God, a man can do what the elephant can't?" "I'll call that bugger to this Kiragoor." "Which bloody worthless buggers chopped this tree?" "Oh, it was men from our village itself." "Why, what happened?" "What has happened you ask?" "!" "Oh my dear, do you know how much it has suffered?" "Can a tree suffer?" "What, are you asking can trees suffer?" "Why, don't trees have a soul?" "Does a tree have a soul?" "If a tree doesn't have a soul, how can it talk to me?" "What, can trees also talk?" "Go to the side and mind your business!" "If it cannot talk, how will it teach me to chop without hurting it?" "Teach to chop without hurting it, a tree?" "A tree...?" "!" "See, they don't know anything about trees Razzak." "Forget that brother, look here." "Mothers grace!" "They've tried to chop without supporting the wood." "They have kept something there, but he is saying otherwise?" "Damn you!" "Oh Razzak, that is what my darling keeps telling me." "Yes, these sons of the devil have half killed it!" "Hey, what do you think chopping a tree is kids play?" "You can just take a saw or axe and start chopping willy-nilly!" "Okay now, what do you need to build a house?" "Wood!" "What is a plough made of?" "Wood!" "What do we need to make a cart?" "Wood!" "Forget all that, what are boats  ships made of?" "Wood!" "Man became a man only after he learnt to chop wood!" "Otherwise he would have remained like a donkey, dog or pig say's our father." "You have to learn a lot about trees." "I'll teach you, we'll start from today itself." "The elephant couldn't do it..." "Daani?" "This is like drawing a map to No-man's land!" "Huh, he looks like he will be blown away in our village's wind." "Will he be able to chop wood?" "Hey, what are you starting at?" "Come and help me." "She was the only thing missing!" "Get it down." "Eat, these hot ragi balls!" "Instead of working they are wasting the time telling stories." "Its like they say, an unrestrained monkey can burn down the city." "Madam doesn't seem to have the information about my brother." "Once she sees our work, she will herself reward us with two more bags of ragi." "Razzak...!" " Brother?" "Enough talking, let's start working." "Pull it... pull it hard." "Slowly, don't hurt it." "Pull, it's coming out!" "Hey don't hurt her pull it slowly." "Oh my, the saw we couldn't budge for a week, they removed it in one go!" "Oh this is nothing." "Look at him, like Shankarappa said he is truly extraordinary!" "Hey what is extraordinary about this." "Once our Krishne Gowda's elephant..." " Yeah tell them." "It couldn't push a tree trunk over!" "That is when, our Sonsappa threw it onto the lorry in a snap!" "You know what Krishne Gowda said after that?" "What?" "Sonsappa, you're alone equal to 10 elephants he said." "And he gave rewards of 5 bags ragi, wheat..." " Hey Razzak!" "Don't tell them all that." "The have seen our work now, right!" "Why, won't you also give tow bags rewards as well?" "Hey they are good people brother." "How will they not give?" " Hey Razzak!" "After removing the saw, I'm reminded of another tree." "Do you know which one?" "You know... that big one..." "Oh yeah that huge tree." "Do you know the story behind that tree?" "Oh, you are extraordinary in both chopping wood and story telling." "SonsaPPa, if you keep on narrating we can listen to not one but 10 of your stories." "Go on..." "Razzak you tell this one." " It was a huge tree near the forest." "As an elephant couldn't go there we went alone... it was humongous!" "Sonsappa and me at one go..." "You bloody fools, if they have brought a third person to do the job, go and ask them what wrong you have done and rectify it." "I have never seen such a thing ever before." "All these day they were like our brothers, but I don't know what happened to them now!" "Okay mother." "We will ask them face-to-face." "Hey Karia, we can't just leave like this." "Yes Maaranna, you are right." "Let us ask them what their issue is." "Hey where are all of you going, come here and say cheers." "What?" "Chairs?" "Yes, Christ has said that the wine you drink is my blood." "So if we say cheers before we drink our wishes will get fulfilled." "Really, whatever we wish will come true?" "Kaalappa, just say cheers before you drink, then you will come and tell me that it works." "Okay, I'll try it." " But Sons, this is not wine though!" "Christ says, whatever we drink is wine." "Say cheers..." "let me." "Oh like this!" "Now you!" "Come here." " Chairs!" "Oh, you finished it in one go." "That is how you should drink this." "Then, what do you think of my brother Sonsappa?" "Brother...?" " No not that!" "Brother, put on a song." " Okay." "Hey give that radio here." "Oh Sonsappa, enough let go now." "Okay bye, see you tomorrow." "See you brother, bye!" "Hey slowly Razzak, or else I will fall." "Why are you all so quiet suddenly?" "Did anyone die?" "Hey, get your drink and get lost." "What is your concern with whoever dies?" "You used to be so lively, why are you acting like sour arses today." "What Kaalappa, are you all possessed or what?" "Who the hell is possessed, what the hell are you saying?" "Hey Kama no!" "Keep quite." "Let him talk Byrappa, why are you stopping him?" "What is there to talk to you about?" "You have brought and outsider to chop our tree, is that honorable?" "We want nothing to do with you!" "Why do you say that, what wrong have we done to you?" "Hey Kaala, keep calm." "Keep calm Kaala!" "Hey come on let's go." "Leis get out of here!" "Hey Subba come, leis not be around them anymore!" "Kaalappa...?" "What the hell happened to him?" "Shankarappa, what has happened to these Gowdas?" "Why did the leave crying like that?" "How will we know what is in their hearts?" "Yes, exactly?" "There are ways to know, what is there in their hearts." "Oh don't hide it any more, tell us what it is." "Those Gowdas had come." "They came and told me... to do some black magic to paralize these lower caste bugger's limbs." "But, I said if you do that you families will be ruined and kicked them out." "They came to do such a thing to us?" "Then what should we do sir?" "Take an axe or sword and chop off the limbs of one of those Gowdas." "Then everyone will fall in line." "No sir!" "We can never do such a thing." "No one in our lineage has done such a thing!" "Oh then, those Gowdas will find someone else to do the curse I refused to." "Let them do that, then the curse will ruin the family." " Useless buggers." "We want nothing to do with them anymore." "Bless us Swami." " We'll take our leave." "I never thought they were such heinous men." "This is what they give us for considering them our own." "We won't mingle with them if it means the end of all of us." "These buggers used to prance around cause they were friends with the Gowdas." "They used to drink together in the bar, their wives used to always be together." "This bloody Maara wouldn't let me put up board on his land!" "Now let them suffer, damn buggers!" "Look Shankarappa," "I have just let one demons out of the bottle." "Let us see what it is capable of!" "Hey"" "Hey Subbha!" "Hey Subbha, get up!" "What is you problem at this hour?" "What is it?" "Say what is it?" "Am I nothing to you?" "Do you really have to ask?" "You are my everything!" "Then why won't you tell me what happened in the station?" "Look Daani, don't ask me this one thing!" "Just go to sleep." "How many times I have told her not to but she keeps asking me about it," "Oh my god!" "Did you just kick me in the arse?" "If you keep pestering like this, I will have to kick you arse!" "Daani..." " What is it?" "It's hurting where you kicked me." "Oh, what is it killing you?" "Shut up and go to sleep!" "What did you expect it feel good when I kick you?" "!" "Sonsappa, I wanted to ask you something..." " Go ahead." "In Christianity, can we remarry if we don't have kids?" "You can, but you don't need to." "Kaalappa, it depends on the wife's family capabilities." "What do you mean?" "What I mean is..." "I'll tell you my own story." "My sister didn't have kids after 3 years of her marriage, her husband wanted to remarry." "You sit Kaalappa I'll tell you..." "When I heard of this I was really upset!" "There is this big papal tree in our village." "I went to that tree, and asked what should I do?" "Tell me what should I do?" "And I hugged that tree and cried like a baby." "Then, the tree told me... what I should do!" "Kaalappa, I put me saw on my shoulder..." "I went to him and told him." "If you do get remarried, I chop of you head!" "And he never spoke of marriage again." "Kaalappa..." "let me know if your sister has such a problem," "I'll get my saw and chop their heads." "The fact I asked you about the issue that was my mistake!" "Come let's go get some breakfast." ""Every morning I have to remember so many people"" "Damn this bugger!" "He took 20 days to chop this." "But thank god it's finally done." "But this is such a huge tree." " Sonsappa what's next?" "Ifl had the right tools I alone would have chopped this tree by now." "Hey Sonsappa, think of us as your tools." "Razzak is also here, just tell us what to do and we'll do it!" "Razzak..." "You remember we had gone to a village named Mudgere." "The same thing happened there too, right?" " Yes brother." "There, a sir used to show us pictures of birds..." "Can you remember his name?" " Oh that was such a big name..." "Yes, Chand sir!" " Hey, that's not it!" "It is not Chand sir, its Poornachandra Tejaswi." " Yes, yes!" " Kaale Gowda sir." "You know what he said about me?" "Hey Sons..." "You're the only man who talks to trees." "I will write a story about you..." "So do you know what I told him?" " Oh for god's sake don't start again!" "There is a lot of time to listen to your stories." "Also my grandfather's tree... has fallen on the pathway, you have to fell it as well." "So quickly finish this work!" "Okay, you wouldn't understand it even if I told you." " Go on!" "Get chopping, I'll be back soon." " Hey where are you off to?" "I'm getting late for the market." "Screw the market, we have to push this up." "Come, come and lend a hand." "PUSH AND FLIP IT!"

"Okay move back, and let some space." "Kaale Gowda sir, come let's get those bamboos." "Razzak, go get those stumps." "Lift it, lift it... just a little more." "Come go on, lift it a bit more."

"What happened?" " Did Byrappa's back also break?" "Oh god!" "Hey Subba!" "Hey what ever you doing when I told you to place the stump?" "Oh no!" "The tree trunk is rolling away!" "Oh no my tree, stop my tree!" "Hey, the trunk is rolling down." "Move aside. give way!" "Eeravva!" "Eeravva!" "Keep calm mother, you're safe now." "My water can has been crushed flat, what would have happened if it were me?" "Keep calm, nothing has happened, has it?" " Daanamma, you saved my life!" "I was shouting that much, can't you hear you old woman?" "Damn you!" " Damn you sons of bitches!" "Damn you homes wreckers!" "Damn you to hell, you donkey faced buggers!" "I've seen what you have been doing, have you come to take our live." "Do you think a life is your play toy?" "Hey get lost, don't stand in front of me!" "Bloody worthless bugger!" "Hey run Sonsappa... but my tree?" "Oh mom, nothing happened to you right?" " Are you okay Eeravva?" "Its those useless bugger," "Damn them, have they come to chop wood or ruin my home?" "Hey Kaalappa please stop..." "Come let's find our tree." "Shut up and get lost!" "Such a big mistake has happened to my brothers and these guy is worried about a tree trunk!" "You are the one who talks to trees right?" "Go ask it where it went!" "Shut your pie hole and get lost!" "Is this the guy who used to say Sonsappa so polite?" "Okay come let us only find the tree." "Oh near those women!" "Allah show mercy upon us!" "No brother, why should we bother." "Come let's go." "But my tree?" " Com brother, we need no part of that tree!" "Oh, such a big log came rolling as if it was aim to get your mother!" "If Daanamma wasn't there, today we would doing the last rites for mother-in-law." "Ah, how many time will you repeat this, won't you let me sleep in peace?" "Even we would have done the same if we were in her place!" "I'm just sharing the pain of what I saw... just lie down  listen." "Hey, do you want me to go drink the urine of Gowdas because Daanamma saved my mom?" "Shut up and to go sleep." "Look at him acting like a raging bull!" "I was just talking about how you mom was saved!" "Why do you rage for that?" "Damn sleep alone here like a ghost!" "Take it, there is 20 rupees here!" "Sh', and where is our rag?" "!" "?" "Because of the great work you did, we don't even know where our trunk rolled off to!" "Two of our men's back gave give out, now will our women let us take ragi out for you?" "Gowda sir!" " What?" "For whatever reason, this time the tree did not listen to me." "My lord the father up in the heavens, never give such problems again." "Allah, show us mercy!" " Amen!" "Gowda sir, take your money." "Razzak come let go." "Allah Hafiz, we are going from you village." "Leis go Sonsappa, I've had enough of this tree!" "I knew it the very moment the tree left without telling me." "There is something very wrong in this village Razzak!" "Otherwise, would the tree just up and go like that?" "Oh god!" "This is the last time." "We should never show our heads in this village again." "Daani, just a bit more." "My veins are falling off giving you a massage over and over again." "I feel like you're getting addicted to these massages." "Its not like that dear." " What is not like that?" "If you just lay quietly for a few days the bones will snap back in place." "Wait, if someone else gets more oil to massage," "I'll scratch their face off with a cactus." "Oh my god!" "Look here, its been 3 weeks now." "Everything is happening in the bed itself." "Go now, go and get that Karia!" "Don't get involved in this issue." ""Om!" "I'll crawl here till the day I die." "But I want nothing to do with those buggers." "You don't butt you nose into everything you..." "Yes, I butt my nose everywhere." "All these days, the women took care of the fields, the kids and homes." "Now they are struck with cleaning up after you as well." "That is what you wanted as well!" "Cover yourself and snuggle happily." "To hell with you lazy buggers!" "Do whatever the hell!" "I had enough of trying to right you men." "What else do I have to see with these eyes...!" "Oh, what is it Vasachari you rarely come her anymore?" "Yes, Kaala had called for me." "For what?" "To change replace the teeth of the plough." "Seems like Vasachari is here, wait I'll be back." "Yes he is inside." "Kaala, hey Kaala!" "Vasachari, come." "How many days its been since I called for you..." "And you have come now?" "Hey, I some urgent work." "How are you brothers now?" "Hey Kaala, where did you go to?" "See for yourself." "There is no oil that I haven't used to massage their backs." "Hey these oil massage and home remedies are out dated." "Now its all about 'Doctors'." "We have to go and get cured by Doctors." "Keep quite Aachari, why do you say such horrible things!" "If you rest for four days, the pain will go on its own." "In our youth we have seen such things many a times." "Did we act like this?" " Hey, don't talk about your youth Uncle." "These days the pain doesn't just disappear like it used to in those days." "Yes sir, please don't make this bigger than it needs to be." "Kaalappa, take them to a doctor in the town." "But which doctor do we show them to?" "Hey, a guy in our village had the same pain." "There is a Doctor Appanna in Priyapatna town." "They took him there and gave him current, it immediately cured him." "What... giving current cured him?" "Giving current cured him instantly?" "Yes, that's what I said!" "They took him lying down." "But he came back walking on his feet, after he took some current!" "Vasachari, you're right." " Yes I am!" "It will be a mistake wait any more." "Let's get the cart ready." "Hey Byra!" " What?" "That doctor has miracle hands it seems." "I'll drive when going there, on the way back you guys drive." "I will come sleeping like a king." "Pull it up form the bottom once..." "your breath I mean." "I cannot sir." "If I breathe that deeply, it feels like my hips will drain the life out of me." "Which bloody fool brought you to this hospital?" "Its me sir." "It was me, why do you ask?" "If you would have delayed a bit longer, he would have died." "Sir, why do you say such ungodly words?" "Just because there is this Dr. Appanna..." "You bring me patients in the worst possible condition!" "What am I to do now?" "Look sister, test him for... jaundice, BP, blood sugar, and everything else you can think of." "Yes doctor." "Sir, they have is a sprained back from trying to lift a tree..." "Are you the doctor or am I?" "You sir." "Then let me to do my work." "Don't come wagging you tail in between!" "Only when we check them completely, will we know the defects." "You village folk know only to doubt, and die doubting." "Sister, do his urine test, stool test, blood test, all tests and get me the reports." "Okay doctor." " If need be we will cut them up!" "What are those tests he just said?" "Stool, Urine and blood tests." "Now come and pay an advance." "See this, the right vertebra has twisted and fallen on top of the left vertebra." "What does that mean Sir?" "It means the right vertebra has fallen on the left vertebra." "Right bravo..." "left bravo..." "No not bravo." "Bra, Vertebral" "Yes, that same bra... shouldn't it sit one on top of the other?" "Why are you laughing?" "It is a miracle if they are still alive after one has fallen on the other," "It must be a direct act of God!" "Oh no, Sir... now how to rectify it?" "Don't worry." "Appanna is here." "I'll take care." "Nurse," " Yes doctor." " Admit their patients and give them 4 times ultra violet heat and 3 times current shock treatment daily." "Did you get it?" " Yes doctor." "Don't worry." "Once this Appanna puts his hands to it, he will clear everything." "Just see the miracle of current." "First to chop the tree... they brought in some outsiders." "Now they have gone to the town to get treated for a sprain." "If they had asked you to come and set it wouldn't you have gone?" "Hell, keep quite." "Those city buggers will empty their riches." "Then they will learn their lesson." "Who know what lessons they will learn!" "Please take you medicine." "Hey Kama..." "How do you feel about this hospital?" "What would I feel?" "Isn't it like the cell, the urine pit in the police station?" "Very true." "There the inspector beats you with a cane." "Here the doctor drains our blood with a needle." "The thing is, they have to take us there forcefully, but we willingly come here." "Hold this." "You both share your pains and sorrows." "Where are you off to?" " I'll back soon." "Kama..." "Hey Kama!" "Curse this Appanna Doctor!" "Hey what happened here?" "This doctor was extorting money... to treat a corpse for three days." "That is why we are burning down the hospital!" "Burning it down?" "Hey Byra, Subbha!" "Carefully, carefully now." "Sister, where are my boys?" " Who the hell know, go to the side!" "I don't know where the doctor or patients are and he wants me to find his boys!" "Byra, Subbha... where are you?" " Call out to me you buggers!" "You idiot, ride slowly!" "We used to be able to somehow sit up every now and then." "But you took us to get current and now laid us out for good." "What, what is your problem?" "What did I do?" "What is my mistake in this?" "I took you for your own good your buggers!" "What can I do if your right bra came and sat on the left?" "Your fate is to blame!" "What is that 'Bravo' Kaala brother?" "Oh that cheat Doctor, showed me a photo and told me everything." "But you won't understand even it." "Yes, like you said... if our fate has shifted from left to right and right to left, what can you do?" "Then shut the hell up!" " Go on drive." "Subbha doesn't it feel like that Kiragooravva is standing on our backs?" "If no one got cured in the hospital either... maybe its just better to call Karia!" "What is going to happen if we sit pondering old issues?" "If you can't then say so, I'll go and bring Karia myself." "Kaalappa, how long it has been since I saw you!" "How are you?" "Kaalappa-J" "Maara!" "Kaalappa." "Are you just arriving now, come in." "Come and sit down." "How much longer do we stay like this?" "Do you feel satisfied if we suffer on?" "Look, you are here." "Come to the point." "Don't beat around the bush." "I won't, come and set Byra and Subbha's sprained backs." "What Kaalappa, how long has it been since they sprained their backs?" "Everyone has had a turn at pulling on them." "You even went to the city hospital as well." "Who knows what internal injuries might have happened?" "Now if he comes and does something you'll put all the blame on him if anything goes wrong." "Hey Maara!" " What?" "You are not like what you were before!" "Who, are we not like what we were before?" "Sit and think and you'll realise whose heart is pure." "We'll think about that later, first come." "What, do you think it's that easy to snap out old sprains?" "What do you mean?" "We have to lock both hands together and tightly hold it around the neck." "The you must place the head on top of the elbows and lay him on the ground and step on his spine with our feet." "What is he saying?" "Why must you step on him with your feet?" "What do you mean why?" "The back will be firm and the nerves pop the spine back into place." "That is why you must step on it." "We have never seen you pop the sprain with your feet before." "Why can't you use your hands?" "Yeah why not!" "If you know how to, go and try it out with your hands." "If it pops, I'm very happy!" "I'll send everyone to you to pop their sprains." "Go." "Okay then." "May you be blessed," "Oh my, he just left." "With the knowledge you have, is what you did right?" "You do it for everyone, what would you lose if you did it for our brothers?" "What, do think is this right even to you?" "When that Kaala left with a worn look on his face... did you feel the least bit bad?" "I never knew the son I bore was this inhuman!" "You would not bear me if you knew it?" "Mind you business." "What demon has possessed you, I don't know?" "Look at him sitting like a stone." "Couldn't you advice him." "And he is the eldest, damn you!" "Hey you donkey... if you only knew of the fire in our hearts." "Leave it Maaranna." "Just keeps yapping on like a..." "If you ever butt your nose here again, I'll chop your head off!" "Did he really say that, that bugger!" "Yes he did!" "I felt like kicking his head off." "He kept insisting that he must step on you with his feet." "With his feet he wants to step on me?" "!" "Worthless bugger!" "Okay brother... is snapping out a sprain that difficult?" "Let me have at it." "There is one there!" "Come on girls, it's getting late leis finish our work inside." "Give me this hand." "Hold it here." "Hold it, I am telling you it will be alright." "Give me that hand and hold it there." "You must hold it tight." "Be gentle." " Yes I will." "Now I'll press on the spine." "Hey keep calm, don't shout." "I should hear the snap." "Did it snap?" "Did it snap?" "Did it snap now?" "I can't take it anymore." "It just won't snap back in." "I must try something different." "Did you hear the snap?" " There is no bloody snap just leave it." "Why won't it snap?" "That bugger was right, we must lay you down and step on it with the feet." "Give me you hands, hold it on your neck." "Once I step on it, it must snap." "Give me you hands, come now..." "Did it snap?" " No it didn't, no!" "Damn this sprain, how will it not snap!" "Let me try it with my right leg." "Hold on, a bit more!" "Hey it snapped, it snapped!" " Did it really snap?" "Did it pop out?" "It snapped!" "Didn't I tell you it would?" "See the sprain is gone." "I cannot stand up." "Neither can I." "My back gave out!" "I am not able to stand up straight." "I think I sprained it." "My back is killing me!" "Then was that snap your back popping out?" "Do it slowly." "You are my biggest pain..." "Get down." "Get up and go inside." "Uncle..." "Uncle..." "What is it?" "Uncle should I help you up?" "Hey shut up go inside." "Go uncle!" "Aunty..." "Aunty!" "See... even simple-minded kids... are now making fun of me." "Leave it be." "Why did you call for me?" "Yes, I did call for you." "I do business in the market... can I keep sitting here like this?" "It's been 2 weeks and I haven't gone to the market." "Now I can't trust that Kulawadi Karia." "I can't even go to the hospital." "Oh, why are you blabbering on?" "Ijust a man in pain... if I blabber a bit... would it kill you to listen for a while?" "Don't get mad, go on tell me." "Tell me... does it hurt?" "Don't touch it." " Now what do you want me to do?" "You know our Ragi Channabasappa... a Pandit is visiting him." "Do something and bring him here." "Let us see if he can rectify this mistake." "That is it..." "I'll get him." "Don't worry about it." "I'll take my leave." "Be careful." "Oh sorry..." " Oh, don't touch it!" "'Suffer you buggers'" "What are you starting at his face for?" "He is the panndit whose come to cure the sprain." "Yes." "Hey you worthless women, how long will you take?" "Show them in." "Who is it?" " It is the pandit, he is here." "Come." " Come sir." "He is the patient, Kaale Gowda." "Greetings, Ragi Chennabasappa has told me a lot about you." "That is why I came." "Please sit." "What happened?" "Sprain." "Give me your hand, let me see." "You're blessed." "The bone is perfectly alright." "There is just a small tear in the muscle though." "Oh, then what are we to do now?" "Oh don't worry!" "You just see, I'll make it vanish in just 4 days." "Kaalappa, get well soon at the hands of the pandit." "Our bar is feeling lost without you." "Shall I leave now?" " Okay, I'll come you go now." "Okay, don't worry." "I'll cure him, you may leave now." "Gowda sir, I need an assistant to prepare the medicine." "What do you need?" "To grind the medicine... even children will do, like your kids or whoever!" "Where do I have that privilege?" "I didn't understand." "There she is that barren cow..." "She will help you." "Oh she is my wife, Nagamma." "What else does she have to do?" "She'll help you." "Oh Naagu amma, now we are introduced." "Okay, she will do." "Where are you from?" "We pandits don't have a home to go to." "Do you know where these roots are from?" "They were brought from the Himalayas." "Where is the glass?" " Nagu amma, I need one more glass." "Do you prepare medicine wherever you go?" "Gowda sir." "We don't go and prepare medicine in whomever's house." "Ragi Chennabasappa has spoken very highly of you, that is why I have come to your house to prepare these medicines." "Otherwise, I would never..." "Donkey... can't you do this one small thing properly!" "Pick the glass." "It's okay Gowda sir, be patient." "You are scolding Nagu amma this harshly for such a small thing." "Oh my god!" "Look Gowda sir, while drinking the medicine... you shouldn't be angry." "If you drink this medicine you'll sleep tight and your pain will vanish by morning." "Nagu amma give this to Gowda sir." "It's for your own good." "Slowly, be careful!" "After long time he has come outside." "Thanks to pandit's medicine, I feel better now." "I can sleep peacefully now uncle." "Pandit." " Yes." "There are 2 more men who are bedridden due to sprains." "You have to grind some medicine for them as well." "Definitely, we will do it." "First let me help our Kaale Gowda able to go to the market, then you are next in line." "When a muscle tears... we do what is called a 'Round Stone Therapy'" "If we do that everything will come together." "But you must put your trust in me, that's all." "If you do, I will make the pain vanish!" "Right-right!" "Give way, my vehicle is coming!" "Pandit...?" "Nagi...?" "Hey, where the hell did you go to?" "She ran away with all the jewels in the house." "Really?" "She put my name to shame and has run away!" "Oh poor fellow, see how he is crying!" "What the hell do I do now uncle?" "!" "Still, our Nagavva is no the kind to run." "That home wrecker Pandit is to be blamed." "No, he came to cure the sprain but must have put some spell or something on her... and she ran away with him." "She gave all of us a bad name." "That she did." " Now, we can't walk around proudly." "She shamed me in front of the entire village, that..." "Shameless..." "Uncle... uncle!" "I have brought you lunch." " Have you now, get it here." "Aunty ran away, right?" "Oh she is a shameless..." "let her go." "Doesn't you mom make any sweets?" "There-there, don't get upset." "Aunty will soon come back, and make sweets for you." "You have grown this much but haven't learned anything." "Go, go and get some water." "No one will come back after they elope." "Do you think this is a small mistake?" "She will come back he says..." "Take it." " Kaala, we found Nagamma!" "We have brought her here, come outside!" "Aunty is here, aunty is here!" "Aunty...!" "No way can she enter the house!" "I'm a man not a eunuch to let her in like that!" "First call for the Panchayat and let them decide." "Hey, don't say that!" "She made a mistake un-knowingly, let her in!" "You come dear..." " Aunty, you keep quite!" "What do you know?" "Don't try to preach to me." "Let the heads decide if the mistake was her's or mine, then we'll see." "Don't my son, if we go to panchayat we only will lose our respect." "Don't be stubborn, take her in." "Look, don't interfere in my personal matter." "Just shut up and go!" "Mom, how many times to tell you not to butt you nose in everything." "Go, shut up and go I say!" "Oh, I don't know what has possessed this village and the men in it." "Look Kaala, I can't see a Panchayat with my eyes." "Do whatever you want to, I'm going!" "You won't prosper, none of you will." "If you make women shed tears, how will you ever prosper?" "No, how can we just let her in without a proper inquiry?" "Do a panchayat inquiry or whatever, till then Nagi will stay with us." "Come..." "What I'm asking is, today you are asking for a divorce... then why were you crying day and night that my wife ran away?" "I cried thinking that pitying me they would get me remarried." "How was I to know they would bring back her itself?" "What the hell, are you a human being...?" "I write SOOsq. feet of land in you name." "Please somehow get me a divorce." "I could... but, what to do about Nagamma though?" "Even her parents have disowned her." "What am I that heartless?" "I'll give her my outhouse to stay in." "And provide provisions as long as she is alive." "That can be done." "You might be right Shankara..." "I can do anything I want." "But how will I get them a divorce?" "Will the people agree?" "What is there for the people not agree to this?" "Which honest man would say it's a right?" "But still, it is a sensitive issue." "What is sensitive in this?" "Nagamma's husband Kaale Gowda is the one who is insisting that the panchayat gets him a divorce." "Did he say that?" "Does that mean he doesn't want her?" "He say's he wants nothing to do with her." "She is also infertile." " Oh say that then!" "Barren cow, what can he do with someone like her?" "Isn't that true?" "If the husband himself has said this, how can we let this opportunity go Shankara?" "But sir!" "These Kiragoor women are not ordinary in any aspect." "They are extraordinary women, no man has been able to tame them." "But now they are in our clutches." "If you take a cane and spank Nagamma 4 times really hard, then the rest will feel that pain." "Hey, why just 4?" "I'll trash her 8 times and get her to divorce him." "You came to see me despite of your back pain," "I'm so happy" "Hey, how could I not come?" "Hey, come fast." " Yes, I'm coming." "What do you have?" "ldly, vada, masala dose, lemon rice, pulav..." "Don't you have any sweets?" " We have Kesaribath." "Don't you have Mysorepak or jilebi?" " We don't have those." "Okay." "Get it two plates each." "Four plates Kesaribath!" "Lets celebrate with some thing sweet." "I'll come to you village's panchayat tomorrow." "Hey, Day after that you will be coming home." "What is the issue in coming to the panchayat?" "Brother... brother!" "What is your problem when I'm praying you...!" "Shut you hole and wait." "Hey Krishna..." "Tomorrow is like a festival for us!" "I know sir." "People will come from the surrounding villages." "Once the panchayat is over, everyone will come here and have a couple of pints" "Don't fill only spirit, add some water to it." "I was waiting till you finished your prayers." " What is it with you?" "You are the one who asked me to come." "Tomorrow there is a panchayat in Kiragoor, come." "What is it for?" "Hey, one of these Kiragoor women had eloped, that is it." "Oh no, Kiragoor women!" "Then I'm not coming!" "Hey it will be like watching a burlesque show, come and bring another 4 men with you." "Okay then." "Krishna" put some in his mouth for free." "Give me the without the water." "Did you see me mix it?" "Look, I don't know about you men but we want Nagamma." "I can't tolerate to see her get hurt." "What can we do for that, will Kaalappa listen to us?" "Can I ask you something?" " What is it?" "If that Kaale Gowda leaves our Nagamma, shall I bring her to our house?" "Are you stupid or crazy?" "Shut up and keep quite." "She says whatever the hell!" "Look, there will be lots of people in the panchayat tomorrow, if you open your mouth there I'll stomp you into the ground!" "Look there she comes, the one who ran away." "The one who is walking behind is the one who eloped, Nagamma." "And the one in the front is the rowdy Daanamma." "What extraordinary looking she is!" "Yes she is indeed extraordinary." "How come she didn't see any one of us?" "Jai Ugra Bhyrava!" "I can see everything, everything that you have done." "Hey Nagamma... come here Nagamma." "Come stand in front of these people, accept your sins." "Come!" "Shankarappa go and drag that Nagamma here." "I will, beat all the demons that have inhabited her body." "Bring that bitch here!" "Can't you come when Swami calls?" "You know to run away but don't know how to act in the panchayat?" "How many times do I have to call you?" "Don't you have any respect for me?" "What did you see in that pundit that you ran away with him?" "Tell me why did you run away with him?" "Which demon is possessing you?" "Which demon, which lady demon is it?" "It seems like all the gods have entered Swami's body." "Can't you see it in his eyes?" "Lord Ugra Bhyraveshwara!" "Make this woman confess her sins and save this village from shame." "Save us, save us all!" "Which horrible demon has possessed you?" "HEY!" " Speak the tru...!" "You want a woman to tell you why she might elope with a man?" "Then why are you shaking that stick here?" "Go and ask your wife." "She will tell you." "When her husband is alive she ran away with a boyfriend..." "HEY... useless bugger!" " She brought shame to the entire village." "Speak the entire truth." "You said her husband right?" "Because she hasn't had a child yet, asking her to allow him to remarry can he, this man, abuse her every day and night?" "Look at him sitting here, damn you!" "What else can I do with her if I am too have kids of my own?" "How can you live with an infertile woman?" "If drinks all day at you bar and sleeps all night, how the hell will they have kids?" "Kids of his own?" "Will you have kids if you only come near your wife once in a blue moon?" "Oh, are you a woman, you shameless!" "Shit, you useless bugger!" "If you were indeed born to you father, go ask him how he gave birth to you?" "Shut the hell up, you god man!" "Shut your pie hole for now!" "She talked back to the god man...!" "He hasn't let that girl near him for the past 2 years." "How will she have kids?" "You ask for kids, will the drop from the sky?" "Damn you bugger, what kind of human are you?" "Hey god-man, this sister is not the one possessed." "This cunning cheat of an man is the one who is possessed!" "Look at him sitting like he knows nothing." "Damn him!" "What is happening here Karia?" "You are the one who is impotent but you abused her!" "You will never prosper!" "If you ever come to the market again," "I throw chilly powder in your eyes and break you limbs." "Bloody butternut crap!" "Beat that bugger and teach him an lesson!" "At least then her life will be better." "Make sure he never comes to the market ever again." "Bhagya..." "Bhagya, wait please!" "Hey you bloody bitch!" "First I must get rid of your demons." "Or else you will corrupt all the women in this village." "You are just sitting and watching all of this!" "I'll show your end today, let go!" "That is my holy cane." "It is a god!" "You will burn if you touch it." "Let it go!" "Is it, let me see this holy cane your god burn me!" "I'll break you heads open!" "Oh my god!" "What the hell?" "What happened to you?" " Shut up you home wrecker!" "First we must break your back, you are the reason all of this happened!" "If you had cured the Gowdas that day itself, we wouldn't have to see all this today!" "Shut up please!" "These Gowdas had gone to Swami asked him to put a curse on us, and you want me to cured them?" "What, what did you say?" "You are the buggers!" "You gave a police complaint on us and accuse us of putting curses on you!" "Tell them Swami, you tell the Shankarappa!" "Let that go now." "Let's focus on the present issue." "Leis teach these rowdy women a lesson!" "You keep quiet Swami!" "What is it...?" "We were the ones who refused when Swami said he would put a curse on you!" "What did you say?"
