"Great!" "What a man!" "He is not a man, he is a whirlwind" "Come fast, very, very fast" "Mr. Raja, who is this boy?" "He is our most faithful dog" "If I measure the faithfulness of all my dogs, he will win" "Well done!" "Well done, Shankar, you are great" "Of course." "He has a lion's heart" "Who put it in his chest?" "Who made him a man of steel?" "Bloody fool!" "It's Raja Saheb!" "Raja Saheb, Raja Saheb, disaster has struck!" "The men have stopped working in the coal mines" "Why?" "Is there a fire in the mines?" "The fire is in your brother's mind" "He is beating up one of the men very badly" "Please don't beat my father" "Please let him go." "He will die." "Please don't beat my father" "Halt!" "What is this, Birjwa?" "Brother, she was going by..." "I fancied her, so I grabbed her hand That's all." "Oh, Raja Saheb, why are you being so harsh with your brother?" "He has always been like this, right from childhood." "You shut up!" "Listen carefully, Birjwa, the daughters of these men are like our own" "I am the King and these are my subjects" "There's a God above but I am their God on earth" "Go away, Bloody fool!" "Great!" "I have witnessed the justice of the Court of Jehangir" "Slapped by his own brother" "When Birjwa was slapped, it was my heart that bled" "Yeah, if you think I lie  then may the village mad dog bite er, er, anyone!" "I am doing plain talking" "Hail the great Raja Saheb!" "Ladies and gentlemen, I am Mr. Tol Mol" "I talk in riddles, but lay bare deep secrets" "What the hell are you talking about?" "I am recounting the history of this village" "For ages men have been bying women here" "See that old man?" "See where he is going" "He is giving medicine to all the old men to turn them young" "What a rascal!" "What's that he is saying?" "Father, he is telling us your real name" "You are a fool, and I am the son of a fool" "Why the hell are you wasting your life fooling around whit that puppet?" "Look how I am pursuing our ancestral trade" "You are cheating the rich people" "Please try to make my husband more virile" "Increase his virility?" "It means that the pill you gave him last time had no effect" "Yes, that is true" "But this time I will give you such a medicine that" "Father, why are you ruining their lives?" "No, no." "I am re-kindling his fire" "What you are trying to do is to set alight wood that is damp" "You'll get nothing but smoke" "Why?" "Because, Father, you are trying to play a guitar that has no strings" "Are his strings broken?" "The whole instrument is broken, Father" "And this model will not work Am I right, sister?" "Yes, you are right I have been taken for a ride" "Hey, have you had any refreshments, or are you just talking away?" "I will see to his eating, you look after his drinking" "Shankar" "Give me the tray" "Friends, the Court is ready but where is the King?" "Master, what is this?" "You were the cause of my beating my own brother" "I will now give you the same thrashing" "But, Master, your brother teases our daughters..." "Shut up, son of a bitch" "Your children become our slaves the moment they are conceived" "We can do what we like with them" "Your wives and daughters  we can use them any way we like" "They are our property" "We will raise our voice against this, yes we will" "Throw him to the dogs" "What are you doing here?" "What did you see?" "You didn't see anything!" "Tell me, what did you see?" "What, what did you see?" "What did you see, eh?" "Birjwa." "What is it?" "He has seen something, but won't say" "Hey, does coal ever talk?" "Does the mountain talk?" "You need a voice to be able to talk" "Where will this dink get a voice from, he is dumb" "I know that, but he has seen something" "You may ask him!" "Shankar" "Birjwa, I may be illiterate but I have been reading this mute from his childhood" "I can tell, he has not seen anything" "Go, Shankar, go!" "Good party, wonderful party, wonderful party" "You have had to much to drink" "I have drunk a lot of wine but now I must drink from the fountain of your youth" "You always say this when you're drunk" "Bindiya darling, the Creator made you so beautiful" "Why then do you cover your beautiful body?" "Throw away your clothes" "I will appreciate your beauty" "One would think this was the first time you were seeing it" "That's it!" "The miracle of God" "Oh, damn you, Guard" "I am right in the middle of the road and you are shooting bullets at me" "Raja Saheb has given us orders to shoot" "Raja Saheb cannto live without the pellets that I give him, but your bullets, were they to hit me by any chance then you've had it Even if you escape Raja," "Birjwa will definitely kill you." "What are you doing?" "What are you doing?" "Raja Saheb, Raja Saheb, Raja Saheb," "Why are you shouting?" "You have no enemies, then why all these guards and bullets and dogs?" "Listen, grass and enmity can grow anywhere and at any time" "After all I am the King so I must have some target" "The Deputy Inspector is on the line" "Yes, Inspector, what is it?" "You are coming, aren't you?" "I will certainly be there for your daughter's wedding" "Don't worry" "Wunnerful, my friend, wunnerfool!" "It's wonderful, not wunnerfool" "Yeah, that's what I said, didn't I!" "What is the matter, Raja Saheb?" "You seem to have lost out to her today?" "It is all your fault" "You gave me such medicine that I failed once again last night" "Once again I was humiliated" "It is not the fault of the medicine" "Whose fault is it then?" "It is the fault of the model" "At this age where can I find a better model?" "Just open your eyes and look around" "God has made many beautiful models" "Listen, Gauri, I was...!" "Hey, Gauri, what have you people done!" "Eaten sweets, that's what" "Those were laced with cannabis!" "There will be a heap of trouble" "Is that so?" "What a disaster!" "You will not be able to look straight" "That is what is happening" "You will become intoxicated" "We have become intoxicated!" "Stop!" "Water!" "Look what is happening!" "Milk is flowing from the tap!" "Whoa!" "Stop the Jeep!" "Hey, what are you waving your hands for?" "Blow the horn" "Hey, you there, you girl" "Not "you there", but Gauri, that is my name" "Gauri, the beloved of the moon" "Gauri, Gauri, the beloved of the moon!" "Hey you, move aside" "Why, what for?" "Because you are sitting in the middle of the road, that's why" "We are not sitting on the road, the road has spread itself under us" "This girl looks mad to me" "What did you say?" "You called Gauri mad?" "You called me mad?" "Just say that once again, say it, I dare you" "You curved moustached man" "Moustached!" "What are you staring at me for, with your wide open eyes you, Old Man?" "Old Man?" "He is not an old man, he is Rajaji" "Dadaji (grandfather)?" "Friends, come and greet our grandfather" "Namaste, dadaji, namaste!" "Gauri, hey, Gauri!" "You have made my life unbearable" "You are forever in trouble" "Come, come on home, come along" "Let me go, let go, please" "Ahh, what a sight for sore eyes!" "What a piece!" "You have also become naughty with these children" "Hey, not what a piece, she`s a big piece" "She's more like a buffalow" "What?" "Her waist is the size of a barrel" "Dolt." "I am not talking about the big woman," "I am talking about the little one" "Beautiful, beautiful!" "Why are you laughing?" "You have grown up but still as playful as a child" "When will you get some sense in your head?" "When I have not lost it, the question of getting it back doesn't arise" "Your parents died without leaving a penny... and saddled us with an orphan daughter" "And your brother too just dumped you on my head  while he enjoys himself in Dubai" "Listen, Auntie." "Don't say one word against him" "It's the money he sends every month which runs this house" "Or we would have all starved" "Enough, now go get dressed, we have to attend a wedding" "Raja Saheb!" "Welcome, Raja Saheb" "I didn't think you would remember non entities like us" "You came as an Inspector to this area, but retired as the Deputy Inspector General of Police" "How can I forget such a big man?" "I was...!" "What a piece!" "Beautiful!" "Wonderful!" "O Raja Saheb." "Times have changed but you haven't!" "Greetings, D.I.G. Saheb" "To you too" "Felicitations on the marriage of your daughter" "Many thanks, Mr. Jamuna for gracing this occasion" "Now that your daughter is married do give some attention to my niece's marriage too" "Your girl is matchless, shouldn't have any problem with her marriage" "Congratulations!" "This means Raja Saheb has taken over the responsibility of this marriage" "Raja Saheb?" "!" "After all, he is the Raja." "He is, he is" "Raja Saheb, many, many thanks, very many thanks" "Greetings, Raja Saheb" "Gauri, come pay your respects to the Raja Saheb" "He has taken over the responsibility for your marriage" "Bow to him, bow to him" "Raja Saheb, the girl has turned away, it means things will work out!" "Gauri?" "Gauri" "Gauri called me." "I'm coming" "Wait, Gauri, wait, I am coming." "Gauri" "Raja Saheb" "Gauri" "What is going on?" "Going on?" "It is you who were going, I caught you" "Get up" "Take my hand." "Oh, my back is giving away" "Your pulse is throbbing like a water pump!" "This is all due to Gauri" "At the thought of her not just the pulse but everything starts throbbing" "Everything?" "That lass has bewitched me" "Wherever I look, it is her I see" "Raja Saheb, just don't see her at the window or you are sure to lose your limbs" "Don't force this marriage on me, Auntie" "I will not marry someone I have not seen or known" "Friends, can I marry without seeing the boy?" "No, no, never" "See!" "Quiet, you devils." "Go away, scram" "We are like your parents We only have your welfare at heart" "And, after all, he is a very big man" "But..." "He is very rich" "It will be a life of luxury" "You will live like a queen, you wretched girl!" "Damn!" "Queen or empress" "I will not agree until I have seen the boy's face" "God, what a fix!" "Raja Saheb's face isn't worth looking at!" "Gopal!" "Bring over the horse if it is ready" "What are you staring at?" "Are you not dumb?" "He who thinks me dumb is a bloody fool" "But when did you start talking?" "About 15 to 20 years ago" "You mean all these years you" "Learned your secrets by pretending to be dumb" "You thought a mute would not be able to reveal your secrets!" "I will tell Raja Saheb all the things you have said about him" "No brother, please, I beg you please forgive me" "Otherwise I will lose my life along with my job" "Whatever happens, tell him I must" "No brother, please, no Forgive me, this once" "Hey you lily-livered pigeon, you crazy mare," "Shankar was only moving his lips, it was me who was doing the talking" "Is that so?" "Stop sweating all over" "Check this out" "He was only moving his lips" "We were just doing what we used to practice in childhood" "You mean you two conspired to make a fool of me?" "These days everyone is trying to make a fool of the other" "Like it just happened to you" "What is it?" "Shall I punch you!" "Raja Saheb, Raja Saheb!" "What?" "Good news, good news!" "Auntie has agreed to the marriage" "Really?" "And so has Uncle" "And Gauri?" "She has not" "She has not?" "Why?" "What am I lacking?" "The mirror never lies." "Look!" "Oh, Raja Saheb, I have a remedy for every ill" "Why are you dejected?" "Take a look at this" "But eating this potion won't help me" "Not eating, for applying on your head!" "Black hair will definitely make a difference to your appearance" "Maybe I can dye my hair, but what can I do about this wrinkled face?" "How will I change this?" "Got it!" "I will send a photograph instead!" "What is all this?" "We have agreed to your marriage" "Without asking me?" "Daughter, great good fortune has come our way" "Oh, what a jewel of a man he is!" "Auntie, I have told you this earlier, and I repeat" "I will not marry anyone without first seeing the boy" "Look at his photograph" "If you don't like him all these gifts will be returned" "Show me" "Here." "Look, look at this photograph" "He looks like a film hero." "How handsome he is, isn't he?" "Yes, what a nice looking brother-in-law!" "Hey!" "She didn't even see the photo" "Gauri, where is the photograph?" "Gauri, where is it?" "Brother-in-law looks like a hero" "He is good looking, eh!" "Why are you staring at me?" "You can talk?" "Yes, I can also see you" "You are only a photograph, and photographs don't see or talk" "If you wish, I can also touch you" "Oh, really?" "Let's see you touch me then" "I will dance at the Raja's Wedding!" "Father!" "Raja is getting married, but you are rejoicing!" "Hey, why are you ruining my mood?" "I am telling the truth" "Are you sure you are telling the truth?" "OK, so tell me why I am dying my hair" "To match it with your black heart!" "Wrong" "Its because I am thinking about marriage" "So, you're thinking about marriage?" "I am also going crazy thinking about it" "Right, isn't it?" "I will have to get married" "Go ahead, its high time" "Oh, consider it done already!" "Done, but with whom?" "With the one who comes to this house every day" "The one who comes to cook every day?" "Yes, the same one" "The one who does all our housework" "Are you marrying me off to Rasili?" "Yes." "What?" "Rasili is going to be my wife, and your step mother" "No, she is going to be my wife and your daughter-in-law" "No, she is mine" "She is mine She is mine" "She is mine" "Rasili!" "Both..." "Both have called together?" "Yes" "Oh, my God!" "Rasili, Rasili, you tell us whom do you love?" "Is it the son or the son's father?" "Don't be shy, Rasili Its time to open up" "Yes, Rasili, be as brazen as you want to" "Tell us, whom do you love?" "Please speak out Well?" "I love both!" "Please stand up for the ceremony" "The bride goes first" "Father, what is this?" "What?" "Raja Saheb is changing the whole marriage system" "Why?" "Like a bridegroom he was going around his courtyard on a horse" "And now, he is also doing the marriage ceremony himself!" "He's turned everything topsy-turvy" "Shut up!" "He is the Raja Saheb Whatever he does is right" "My foot!" "Priest, continue with your chants, this is the last round" "I will take care of her But...!" "Keep reciting your chants" "The rounds are completed" "Now bless them" "You!" "I...!" "How did I come here?" "I am your husband" "I have completed the marriage ceremony" "No, no, that was no marriage ceremony" "I do not believe that ceremony" "This marriage is not acceptable to me" "You have cheated me, cheated me" "Listen sweetheart, cheating or not," "I have won the game" "Today I will fulfill my heart's desire" "I have married you." "Marriage!" "If you come near me, I will scream" "All brides scream on wedding nights" "Go ahead and scream" "You can never have me" "Help!" "Will you kill me?" "I will kill myself!" "Gauri will never be yours, never" "I will never accept you as my husband" "I would rather be dead than accept you" "Your life is my property now" "No, never" "I have control over your life and death" "Everything is in my hands." "Understand?" "If I wish I can rape you right now" "But I will not do that" "Because I want to play the game of husband and wife with you" "Never!" "That is why I have married you" "But now I have decided that" "When I take you, it will be with your consent" "I will wait for that day to dawn" "I will wait" "No!" "Never!" "You smile and put salt on my wounds" "I see, and am surprised" "You've got yourself a flower more beautiful than me" "But its fragrance... you could not smell it's fragrance!" "Bindiya" "I have heard that women understand one another" "Do something with this girl" "So that she falls madly in love with me" "Raja Saheb" "Don't argue." "I will give you a fortune" "It's your job to bring that girl to tomorrow's function, dressed as a bride" "This bullet could have gone through you, but..." "My brother is besotted with you" "Brother loves you, and I love Brother" "Love has thwarted death" "Bloody Fool, I have lost to your resolve" "At the party, I put Bindiya in your place" "Just to save the honour of this house" "And you tried to destroy my good name by running away" "I will now show you my true colours" "I have been very patient" "You will now witness my hatred" "When you are made to starve, you will learn to obey Raja's wishes" "Shankar, are you thinking what I am?" "It looks like the girl is being mistreated" "I had heard that saying about "Something being fishy"" "But this looks like the whole blasted fish market!" "All are rogues, the buyers and the sellers" "That is why I feel like digging up the facts" "You talking about my father?" "Chewing tobacco?" "Who..." "Me?" "You are chewing tobacco?" "Spitting it out?" "If you chew then you are bound to spit" "Are you throwing up?" "Vomit..." "I get it!" "You are talking about getting my father to spit out the secret" "Here, down another one" "Down another, down another, you say, and make me drink... like they water a camel before taking it into the desert" "Am I a camel?" "Am I?" "Look, my dear... you called me and I have come" "You asked me for a drink, and I gave it to you" "You told me to feed you, I fed you" "But why have you not quenched my thirst so far?" "Come my lass, I'll quench your thirst" "1, 2, 3, 4, 5...!" "Hey, where did this fifth hand come from?" "!" "Silly, but there are only four hands, not five" "Count, count, count 1, 2, 3, 4" "Eh." "There are only four hands..." "Why did I see five?" "You are drunk, that's why" "Okay." "I am drunk, that's why" "What happened, my love?" "Who just gave a fake pill to your love?" "The fifth hand is there Is definitely exists!" "Five hands?" "Look, two mine and two yours" "See, that's the fifth hand, the one on your shoulder" "But this is your hand" "My hand?" "It's you who has held me all along" "How can it be my hand?" "1, 2, 3, 4" "Caught it!" "Caught the fifth hand!" "This is not the fifth hand, it is the hand of the Law" "He who loses courage, falls into the hands of the Law" "But why is the law after me?" "You could've done some hanky-panky" "The whole village is talking about it" "You gave Raja Saheb such a pill that... all night he remained like a rusted gun" "No trigger pulled, no shots fired, no consummation of his marriage even" "You have grossly cheated Raja Saheb" "I have cheated him?" "It is he who has cheated Gauri" "What cheating are you talking about?" "Hey speak up!" "Where's your voice?" "How can I raise my voice, even the winds can carry tales" "If Raja Saheb gets the wind of the tale I've been telling you then he will...!" "Go on!" "Whisper into my ear!" "Even the wind will not hear anything" "Go on, tell me, tell me" "Shankar, that innocent girl is suffering" "Just wait and see, their big manion will crumble into dust" "Because God has said, that the tears of innocents give birth to flames" "How disgusting, that my father is a part of this dirty game" "And that poor girl...!" "Shankar, see what she is doing!" "You!" "You helped Raja Saheb to bring me to this state" "You have pushed me into the flames of this hell!" "For a handful of coin from your master, you have ruined my entire life!" "What a game of deception you have played with the life of a girl!" "Such a great fraud!" "If you were not marrying me, why did you send your photograph?" "Why did you send this photograph?" "When I saw this photograph" "I started dreaming of a life with you" "I accepted you as my honoured husband" "Made you a part of my life" "But you..." "You have ruined my life" "The photograph that was given to me was a fraud and my marriage ceremony too was a fraud" "You are the root cause of all this" "Tell me, why did you do it?" "Why did you, why did you?" "Why did you do this to me?" "Why are you treating me so?" "When I wish to die, you don't let me" "What is my fault, tell me!" "Can you tell me what is my fault?" "Whom are you asking for an answer?" "Whom are you asking?" "He cannot answer any of your questions" "Perhaps you do not know that this poor man is dumb" "Dumb, he is dumb" "In any case, whether they have a voice or not the poor are always losers in the world of the rich" "Since childhood this poor guy has been brought up on a diet of" "Raja Saheb's ill treatment" "But he is not involved in his cruelties" "Shankar is completely innocent of whatever has happened or is happening" "I'm..." "Raja Saheb, you have again had too much" "Yes, yes, I have drunk" "My friend has a party for my wedding" "But me, I am alone!" "No wife!" "I will break her." "I will crush her pride" "My wife, she will... at my foot!" "Bloody Fool, Bloody Fool" "No, I will not be humiliated today" "I will stay awake and keep you awake too" "Look, I've just washed my face with cold water" "I am sitting with my eyes wide open" "Take off your clothes, quickly" "Raja Saheb, I am ready" "Raja Saheb" "Shankar." "It is the thirsty man who goes to the spring" "But today the spring is asking you to quench its thirst!" "Quench my thirst, Shankar" "Quench my thirst" "Shankar" "I will, I will" "You!" "You, the thirsty spring" "And I am the whirlpool of youth" "Come, drown in my depths" "Quench it, quench it" "Quench your thirst" "No, stop it!" "Nobody can help you now" "Stop!" "Shankar!" "Shankar, help!" "No!" "Shankar!" "Help me!" "Shankar!" "Want to beat me?" "Go on" "Hit me, will you?" "Hit me?" "You laid hands on Birjwa" "This is your place, under my shoe" "Worthless slave" "No, Birjwa, leave him" "You interfered in my matters" "No Birjwa, no!" "How dare you!" "Don't hit him" "Birjwa" "Bloody bastard!" "Hey, Birjwa, what's happened?" "Why are you beating Shankar?" "Ask him" "How he enjoys himself with Bindiya when you fall asleep" "I've caught them red-handed today" "No, no, don't hit him" "It was me who went to him" "I am at fault, don't beat him" "Wretch, you cheated me" "You went to my servant?" "I will teach you a lesson you will not forget all your life" "Chanda Bai, this fake jewel of my mansion is fit to be sold every night" "She doesn't belong to my mansion anymore but to your Salon" "Bloody Fool!" "Forgive me, Shankar." "I misunderstood you." "Daughter, a woman's husband is her god;" "it is her prime duty to serve him" "All her life is for her husband" "Hold his image in your mind and say" "Say it with me: "My husband is my god"" "See his image in your heart" "Only his image" "Repeat after me: "My husband is my god"" ""It is my duty to obey him."" "Sai it, dear: "My husband is my god."" "Say it, daughter." "Say it." "Ashok brother is here, brother Ashok is here!" "Hey, you all are very naughty" "What is in common?" "Brother Ashok has come" "Brother Ashok has come" "Ashok!" "Look, Ashok has come!" "Here, take this" "Have you come then?" "But why didn't you write?" "Bless you, son, bless you" "We have been missing you so much" "We are seeing you after so long!" "What did you bring for uns from Dubai?" "Where is Gauri?" "Sister Gauri has gone" "Daughters don't stay in their parental homes forever" "Why?" "Didn't you get the wedding card?" "What?" "Wedding?" "You people have married off my sister?" "Without consulting me?" "Where?" "To whom?" "Son, she is living like a queen in the mansion" "I just cannot tell you how" "Very fortunate she is, my son and he is a real king, not in name only" "Raja!" "Here's a telegram from your brother" "He is coming to meet you" "If you become emotional and talk about our family matter then, in front of you your brother will be" "Where is Raja Saheb?" "Here I am, brother-in-law" "You?" "!" "Yes, I am her life partner" "Yes, brother" "He is your brother-in-law" "Brother!" "Why are you crying?" "Why didn't you come to my wedding?" "Gauri!" "I wish you were there to send me off" "I only found out on coming here that you had got married" "Brother, if only you had come just as suddenly at my wedding then I would have had no cause for regret" "Gauri, aren't you happy?" "But I am happy, brother" "No brother." "I am happy." "Very happy." "I doubt any other woman has so much happiness as I do" "I had never dreamt that I could be so happy" "See all this, brother" "This grand mansion and my position here" "Gauri, I had some doubts before coming here but seeing how happy you are has relieved me" "Now I can go back with a light heart" "Raja Saheb," "I will remain forever grateful to you" "You have crowned our poverty with your wealth" "I will take your leave now" "Oh, wait a while Have a rest, some refreshment" "You have just arrived" "Many thanks, but it is against our culture to take food or drink from a younger sister's home" "Yes, there you are right" "Very well" "How can I go against your customs?" "You may go" "Farewell" "Please stop the carriage for a minute" "What's the matter?" "What are you saying?" "I don't follow you" "Your sister's marriage is a fraud" "Take her away from here" "No" "Seeing you this way has made me mad!" "The demon inside me is unleashed!" "I will not spare you today" "Gauri!" "Your life has been destroyed" "But you remained silent" "Please go away from here, brother" "You don't know how dangerous these people are" "You have heaped injustice on my innocent sister" "In the name of marriage you have perpetrated a fraud on my sister" "My sister will not spend another minute in this hell" "Come on, sister" "Brother!" "You think you can take my wife away?" "This mansion is a cage and death is hovering at all its doors" "You have entered the jaws of death" "Brother!" "Brother!" "Brother" "Brother" "Let my brother go" "Shankar" "Shankar" "No!" "Brother!" "Brother, Brother!" "Shankar, I couldn't take my sister away from here" "You take my sister away from here" "I leave Gauri in your care, Shankar" "Brother!" "Shankar" "How dare you, you dog!" "Shankar" "Guards, after him, don't let him get away" "No, Birjwa, I want him alive" "Go" "Brother, our enemy will die on their own" "No, Birjwa, you don't know Shankar" "Until I see his dead body, I will not believe he is dead" "I need him, dead or alive." "Bloody Fool!" "Did you find out anything about Shankar?" "We have dragged the whole river, couldn't find anything" "You couldn't have tried hard enough" "I will try now" "Look, I tried, I have killed" "Now I will find Gauri and Shankar" "I will get you a hundred such girls Forget her" "No, he has run away with my wife" "My heart is broken" "It is cracked;" "I will fill up the crack with their bodies" "I will search every corner of the jungle" "I will not rest until I have found him" "D.I.G., have you heard?" "about Shankars unfaithfulness" "That's why I've brought these commandos" "They will hunt him out of the jungle like hungry wolves" "Hey, Birjwa!" "These dogs were loyal to Shankar, they would have warned him" "Good brains!" "Bloody Fool!" "Guards, you search for them in the jungle along with Birjwa" "I will search the skies for him with the D.I.G's help" "Pilot, turn the helicopter, turn around" "Where are you taking me so deep into the jungle, Birjwa?" "Am I a tiger, a bear, a fox, a monkey or what?" "Eh?" "What am I?" "And if we run into a wild buffalo, we've had it" "Sir!" "What, have we run into a buffalo?" "Look at these footprints" "Sir!" "Look at this earring" "Hand me the walkie-talkie" "Brother" "Yes, Birjwa" "Your guess was right, brother" "What?" "Yes, they are both alive" "Is it?" "We have found Gauri's earring and the footprints of both" "Which way are the footprints headed?" "What is it, brother?" "They are hiding in the hill near the stream" "Surround them" "Okay, brother" "Across the stream, back!" "Good God!" "Have you found them?" "No, brother, and it's getting dark" "Afternoon has changed into evening" "Where have the two vanished?" "Where the hell has this dark night entered into our search!" "Bloody Fool" "Raja Saheb, please have your dinner soon the food is running out" "I will not eat" "Raja Saheb, please." "Have some" "No" "Strange!" "Men live and die by food" "But Raja Saheb gets irritated at the mention of food" "Who knows, whether tomorrow again food is cooked in the jungle or not" "Today we are eating food, tomorrow some animal may be eating us" "Hey Commando" "Go quick and get me some water ... plain water!" "Doesn't matter, I will get it myself" "Let's stay close together, this is a dense jungle" "The man in front will not even come to know if the last man gets taken" "Where did he go?" "Where are you?" "Hey, they are hanging" "Stop playing the fool, pal Come on down, down" "They are not coming" "Birjwa!" "Birjwa!" "These two have also gone" "That makes three in all" "This search for Shankar is costing us dearly!" "He is around somewhere" "Find him!" "Find him!" "Birjwa, hey Birjwa!" "Forget Shankar" "The fuel tank has burst, hasn't it?" "What happened?" "Place has turned into a graveyard" "One by one all have gone" "That dumb fellow will rest only after he turns us all into blind and deaf cripples" "That bastard is trying out our tricks on us" "Trying them?" "He is beating us at our own game" "Medicine Man, you tell the bitter truth" "Yes" "It is in our own interest that we return" "You mean, accept defeat at the hands of our own servant?" "Even the hunter takes precautions when the lion turns man-eater" "What rubbish are you talking?" "If you don't heed that rubbish we'll all soon become village history!" "The villagers will tell their children stories of Shankar's bravery" "And they will see him as the saviour and us as a bunch of scoundrels" "But, Raja Saheb, you do understand, eh?" "Yes, we will go back" "Shankar" "No" "Shankar" "Shankar" "Shankar" "No" "Shankar" "Shankar" "No" "No" "No" "Don't beat my Shankar." "Don't beat him!" "Shankar" "What did you say?" "Your Shankar?" "Then who am I, you wretched woman?" "Bloody Fool" "Tol-Mol, has anyone ever been able to control the tempest of love?" "Never, never" "Look, like Shankar, I will also run away with Rasili" "Run away, run away, run away" "If Raja and his army could not stop Shankar, what can my father do?" "Look, look there comes my father" "Look at my father coming here with such a long face" "Father, why are you looking so glum?" "Father, you are looking very worried" "Come on, tell me" "Son, you were right that day" "When a girl is forcibly married to an old man, the outcome is bad because it is against nature" "Hasn't Shankar proved this by running off with Gauri" "How I wish this were true..." "That they had not fallen into the Raja's hands!" "Father, what are you saying?" "Yes, they were caught" "Both were killed" "Killed?" "I have just heard this at the Manor" "The Raja killed them both" "No" "Say, what a beauty you have brought!" "Chanda Bai, I had loved this beauty very dearly but some bastard has enjoyed her, and I don't fancy second hand goods" "Who was the dog who defied you, My Lord?" "That Bloody, Shankar, my slave" "I finished him by cutting off his head" "But why did you spare this one, My Lord?" "I could have done the same with her had I wanted to but death would have set her free" "I want her to die by inches" "I want her to beg to be killed" "I want her to be ravished by filthiest, ugliest and lowliest of all" "I want that they should pick her bones clean" "Father!" "Father!" "Come soon" "No son, don't get up" "Your wound is fresh" "If you get up, the stitches in your throat will come apart" "Keep lying down" "Son, your limbs are broken" "When I brought you here, you were barely alive" "Son, you are a mute, aren't you?" "Most of the nerves in your throat were severed" "Curing you, I discovered a nerve that had been depressed" "Because of this you lost your speech" "I have freed that nerve" "It is possible you will be able to speak now" "You are not a born mute" "You must have had an accident" "What happened, son?" "Father!" "Father, I have brought the food" "Hariya, O Hariya!" "Your son Shankar has come to fetch you" "Coming!" "Kadamji, Kadamji" "Look what I have found in the coal, it is shining." "Look!" "What?" "Diamonds!" "Diamonds!" "Glory be!" "Diamonds in a coal mine?" "I have become a big man, a very big man" "Wife, look, I found these diamonds in the coal mine" "Diamonds!" "When the master returns from town" "I will show him the place and these diamonds" "He will give me a big reward" "We will not be poor anymore" "Really?" "We will give our Shankar good education and make him a big man" "No!" "Mother!" "Father!" "Mother!" "I will tell everyone that you killed my parents" "You are a murderer" "Let me go!" "What happened then, son?" "Inspector Saheb, who is the vile animal who killed Hariya and his wife?" "Speak up, who committed this crime?" "But I am the Manager, I look after the welfare of these men" "Who could have placed a burning coal inside this innocent child's throat and made him dumb?" "He'll never be able to talk in his life" "But he is not blind" "He will recognize the criminal" "I will not spare him" "Shankar, tell us, who out of these is your parents' killer" "Go, take a look" "Did these two kill your parents?" "Officer, arrest these two" "We better get going!" "Did you finish the killers?" "Yes, I did" "They were dangerous wanted men" "They fired on us and were killed in an encounter" "Well done, Inspector" "Did you see, Shankar, the law has avenged your parents' murder" "From now onwards, I will look after you" "I am your guardian from today" "Gauri!" "Ahh... gorgeous!" "What a beauty!" "Chanda Bai, you have been hiding a real jewel all this time" "My Lord, everything here is yours just for the asking" "Chanda Bai, I'm willing to pay your price" "I would gladly give my all for a chance to touch her" "Watch it!" "Don't anyone try to touch her!" "What did you say?" "Yes, when I came here there was no one to save me" "But I am here to save her" "She is the true love of someone;" "for whom I hold her in trust and I am in his debt" "If anyone tries to touch her, it will be over my dead body" "Come on, Gauri" "Gauri, you have no idea what kind of animals' hands you have fallen into" "Raja has ruined both our lives" "And he has killed your Shankar" "No, no." "I just heard him call me" "No, Bindiya." "I have heard his voice" "He is alive" "He is alive" "Mutes don't have voices to call out" "I know, truth is bitter But in life you have to face reality" "No." "I will never believe it, never." "My Shankar cannot be dead" "God is not so cruel" "He is alive" "He is alive" "He is alive" "Raja!" "So, these are the foreign partners of our diamond business" "They are first and foremost my childhood friends" "Welcome, welcome" "Cheers!" "All old friends have met today" "All should enjoy Gopal brand chewing tobacco" "Raja Saheb, let us have a glimpse of the diamonds" "Yes, in a moment" "Here you are" "Is that all?" "Only these diamonds?" "I will bring them out gradually, or the law will get wise to us" "Like we did the last time" "Like we did during Hariya's death" "Raja Saheb, how clever you are!" "After killing Hariya, with the help of police you had us both declared dead and sent us abroad and started the diamond business yourself" "As for the law, you two are absolutely safe" "What do you mean?" "Because dead men are not arrested, and you are 100% dead!" "Forgive me, Raja Saheb" "But it appears that like your hair, your life has become gray too" "Raja Saheb, things are so dull and drab today" "Don't worry, I will find such a wonderful remedy to all this that your heart will start singing" "Raja Saheb, the songbird will not grace your party today" "Why?" "Because Gauri cannot come here" "Gauri?" "But why?" "Because that witch Bindiya is protecting her" "What?" "Did you hear that, Birjwa?" "Where did Bindiya find the courage to do this?" "Bindiya threatens to scratch out the eyes of anyone who dares to look at Gauri" "Is Gauri alive, Raja Saheb?" "She is dead as far as we are concerned" "But I have spared her life so that she can die a horrible death" "No" "No, don't be so cruel to Bindiya!" "Don't, don't inflict this torture" "For God's sake, let her go" "Let her go" "I say, stop it" "No, don't do it!" "No" "No" "No" "You just stay where you are!" "Why are you acting as her shield, silly?" "She is a shattered vessel" "Shattered and scattered" "Don't try to protect her ravished youth" "Save a thought for your own beauty" "No" "No" "Hey, look." "Here is a young bud from the Vale of Kashmir" "Look, look, have your fill" "There is no charge for looking" "Hey, how come this blemish in our rose?" "What great beauty!" "What hair!" "Gauri!" "What is this I hear?" "Did you speak?" "Dumb?" "Has come back alive and with a tongue as well" "But what is the use?" "You have cheated death to confront it once again" "What do you know about death's designs, Birjwa?" "Are you trying to scare me who has befriended Death?" "Not trying to scare you, but to show you the shadow of death" "Which is over your body like a shroud" "Take a look!" "You may take a hundred backward steps but you cannot back out of Death's grasp today" "Help" "Shut up" "Let me go" "Hand over this girl to me, I have purchased her" "But I have just sold every breath of yours to Death" "What!" "Who are you?" "Try to recall" "For a few diamonds you and your men killed my mother and father Hariya" "What!" "Shankar?" "Yes, Shankar." "The seed of enmity that you sowed 20 years ago stands before you today a full grown thorny tree" "Thorny Tree!" "I will destroy that tree" "No, you will not die so quickly" "First tell me the name of the 3rd man who put the burning coal in my mouth" "Shankar" "Tell me, who is that third man, tell me" "Speak" "That third man was Raja Saheb" "No, Shankar, no." "Don't kill me" "No, Shankar, no" "Shankar, no" "And that is how I got back my voice" "Why are you staring at me?" "I feel like listening to you forever" "Will you only listen?" "Won't you tell me anything about yourself?" "Now that I have found you, all my wounds are healed" "I have forgotten everything" "Come, Shankar, let us go far away from here" "To a world where there'd be just the two of us" "Leave behind those, who snatched my own self from me?" "They torched my childhood" "Tortured my love" "Who's there?" "Who is it?" "What do I see?" "Get up, son." "Get up, son." "Oh, father, go to sleep" "There's a ghost dancing at the window, and you ask me to sleep?" "Where is it?" "There, there, look there, there" "Where?" "Where is the ghost?" "Are you trying to frighten your child?" "Your horrendous snores will drive any ghost away" "What is it ... sh... doing?" "Father, father, I think it is Shankar's ghost" "You run out of the window, I'll exit through the door" "But he is standing in the window" "Come, we will both run out of the door" "It's a ghost, a phantom, a spirit" "Forgive us, oh Spirit!" "I beg pardon for my mistakes, Mr. Ghost" "I am not a ghost" "Father, he is talking" "But Shankar was dumb" "This is a ghost, move away" "Look, Junior." "Look at me." "Touch me" "Don't touch." "You'll become ashes." "Father, this is Shankar" "Father, this is our Shankar" "Shankar, you are alive." "Shankar!" "Shankar, you are alive!" "How did this happen, Shankar?" "The Raja had killed you" "I have so many accounts to balance, that even death refused to take me" "Shankar, my heart too is heavy with the load of sin" "I will join you and relieve myself of that load" "I am with you, Shankar" "Well done, Father" "Today for the first time I feel like hugging you" "Who is he, who stabbed me in my back?" "Pushed my brother into the furnace in broad daylight?" "You are the retired D.I.G. but you could not find out who it was" "What can I do, Raja Saheb" "No one claims to know anything" "You talk as if he was an alien!" "A plague descended from the skies!" "Raja Saheb, who is this?" "Ranbir!" "There is an arrow protruding from this throat" "Take it out, looks like a message from the enemy" "I am the one you seek" "I am responsible for Birjwa's death and it is me who has sent you this body" "But what a shame it is, that you cannot take any legal action because in the eyes of the law, this man died 20 years ago" "Wonder whose voice this is?" "It's the voice of your death and this voice will not let you live now" "Every minute, every moment it will remind you and your companions of their approaching death" "because I am that glowing ember of revenge" "The flames of which have engulfed your lives" "And in these flames you will all turn into ashes one by one" "After Ranbir it will be Dilawar, then the D.I.G.,... and then Raja" "He has not mentioned me, Raja Saheb" "When you are all gone, what will I do all by myself, Raja Saheb?" "Who... who can this enemy be?" "Hello" "Dilawar, your life is in danger" "Danger, what danger,Raja Saheb?" "There is a burning ember behind you" "Ember?" "What ember?" "That which burns which turns things to ashes" "Oh, Raja Saheb, I don't understand" "Ranbir is stretched out in front of me" "Lying in front of you?" "He is dead" "Dead!" "Who killed him?" "The ember!" "Yes, come fast to the Manor, Bloody Fool" "Help!" "You!" "He will take my life" "Who will take your life?" "Ember Ember!" "Yes, the same who reduced your friend Ranbir to ashes" "What?" "Come on, come on, quick" "Not right, go left" "But the Raja's Manor is this side" "That is where he is coming from" "Go left, left" "Stop." "Stop." "Stop here" "Where have you brought me?" "This is the coal mine" "Did I say I would take you to a diamond mine?" "But why have you brought me here?" "Someone wants a private meeting with you" "Meet me?" "Who?" "Shankar!" "Shankar?" "Shankar who?" "Hariya's son, in whose mouth you had placed a burning ember" "Shankar" "What!" "Where are the keys?" "Hand me the keys!" "Let go of me, let go" "I say, let me go" "Let me go!" "Who is hanging?" "Father, who is this hanging?" "Not hanging, son, he is swinging" "He is enjoying himself" "Dilawar!" "Dilawar!" "The very man" "This is Dilawar, who killed Hariya 20 years ago, and this D.I.G. pretended to shoot him and this managed to cover up for him" "Guards, find out who is this speaking" "Brothers, the real culprit behind the murders of Hariya and his wife is Raja Saheb" "He is talking nonsense" "To get hold of the diamonds found in the coal mine this bastard snuffed out two lives" "He is talking nonsense, brothers, all lies!" "He is a wolf in a man's skin" "An animal who spills the blood of poor workers" "Who the hell are you?" "Why don't you show yourself?" "Shankar!" "I am an eye witness of your crime" "My parents were killed on your orders and when I was going to appear as a witness to that crime ... you put a burning ember in my mouth and took away my voice" "When my eyes recognized the killers you and the D.I.G. hatched a plan about their false death and fooled me and everyone else here" "For 20 years, a voiceless orphan a helpless slave served you like a faithful dog" "I worshipped the devil, taking you to be God" "But time has removed the scales from my eyes" "You have wronged me" "Wonderful!" "Wonderful!" "Brothers, the biggest wrongdoer is he himself" "Being my servant, he eloped with my wife and has concocted this story to avoid punishment" "It is not he, but the Raja who is concocting a story" "I was never his wife" "His marriage to me was a fraud" "Speak up!" "Yes, yes it is true that out of greed for money we got Gauri's consent by showing her Shankar's photograph" "Speak up, Raja." "Is this true or not?" "What can he tell you" "I will tell you" "He not only deceived Gauri but is responsible for all the rapes and killings in the village" "He has been caught today" "Medicine man!" "Sorry, mate, father has shifted loyalties" "Listen, you Raja" "So far Father has been feeding you pills now he will feed you embers" "Thrash the bastard" "Beat him!" "Beat him!" "Beat him!" "Bloody Fool!" "Shankar!" "Bloody Fool" "No Shankar" "No Shankar, no" "The oil will catch fire" "There is coal all around" "It will catch fire" "I have brought you up, boy" "For making me a slave" "I gave you life" "To save yourself from death" "Look, one is cremated only after death" "You cannot burn me alive" "You started this tale by putting a burning ember in my mouth" "Today this burning ember will end that story by lighting your own pyre" "No, Shankar" "No, I beg of you" "No, no!"
