Middle class man, family's sole supporter, what will happen if he loses his job?
Please look at him
How can this poor man's only sister get married?
Who'll marry her, Mrs. Srivastava?
Consider it as a social work for the women's society and do it. Please
Alright
No, no. I can't do it. I don't have the courage.
I'm getting nervous right now
Mrs. Srivastava
You must've heard 'Father of the nation'. Have you heard 'Mother of the nation'? No!
Why? Let me tell you.
It's easy to be a father, Mrs. Srivastava and equally difficult a mother.
Its an honour to be someone's mother, and today we've come to give you that honour.
I wish I had got this honour
I wish I could be his mother
Please agree Mrs. Srivastava. I'll give you the courage
Please come...Sit...Sit
You told me that your only daughter married and went to Canada?
-yes -and the house seems empty without her?
-yes -her memories sadden you and you've no peace?
How old is your daughter?
-around 22 -23 years old -Ratna is also 24-25 years old
-Ratna? -Yes. His sister. The only sister
She'll get a mother, you'll get a daughter and your emptiness will be over
You'll only have to tolerate him
Don't get taken by his face, he's quite intelligent
He's a chartered accountant, very mannered
Son..touch your mother's feet
Long live. Long live my daughter May you get my years
-My desire to see you brought me here -Brother and I'll never forget your favour, aunty
By the way, is everything clear to you?
What's there to understand? Your father and mother passed away. No, no.
Mother is still alive. I'm the mother and I haven't passed away yet.
-And we are 3 people at home -Not three aunty, four
-Four? -Yes! four
O! yes, yes, four. There's also one who isn't there
Laxman Prasad! See, I haven't forgotten.
-Aunty, don't be nervous at all -No, no. Why would I be nervous?
I'm not nervous at all. Yes!
[RamPrasad] Please come in sir [gasps] they're here
Come in
Please come in, Sir
Why are you removing them? Let the shoes be on
-What a holy atmosphere! -Please sit, Sir
Ratna! O Ratna
-Let's go, aunty -Hey! not aunty, mother,mother. Let's go
Wait! O! Good Lord
-Yes. Let's go now -first fix your veil
-Yes, veil, veil. Let's go -Slippers
Oh! thankyou, thankyou. Let's go
-I can't see your brother Laxman Prasad -He's hardly at home to be seen
He is....He is....
Maybe he has gone to your place sir to teach music
Greetings
I'm so fortunate that the dust of your feet fell on this house
-don't say that, don't say that. The fortune is mine. Please sit -Please sit
-This is my little sister Ratna -live long daughter. Sit
-She's doing her M.A. in Hindi -M.A. in Hindi!
Why not, why not. After all you're the daughter of a great father
-The mother should also get a little credit
Yes, why not? why not? The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world
-Go daughter Ratna, get brother a cold drink [ok]-sister, why the need for the trouble?
-what's the trouble in this?
Guest is God and an offering has to be made to God
as the home's holy atmosphere, likewise pure language, pure thoughts
Yes! How's your holy?. I mean how's your health now?
Health..The way it's with health. As long as I'm breathing, I'm breathing.
What are you saying. May God give you a long life
What will I do with a long life?
I've just one daughter and by God's grace, her wedding is arranged
And I've only one son whom you've given employment
-Only one son!
Sir... the thing is, mother doesn't count Laxman in anything
O! yes, yes. His being there is as good as not being there
His father used to say "Birth alone doesn't make you a son"
"Only after fulfilling his duties does a son become a son in reality"
What high ideals!
Here. Please sweeten your mouth a little
-Coconut sweets! My mother used to make them -This is also made by mother, sir
But why did you tell me to sweeten my mouth a little? I'm going to eat all of it.
Now, whenever I am free, I'll come here
Why?
I meant why not, why not
-It is your home -I have to come in greed of these sweets
No, no sir. Why trouble yourself for this?
Mother will make them and I'll deliver them at the office
Yes, yes, I'll make lots of them. Enough for 4-5 months
- Why Ratna? -Yes, mother -Thank you. Thank you
sister, please rid me of a dilema
Apart from the moustache, there is no difference between Ram and Laxman
How did you distinguish when they were kids? Must have been very difficult.
O! yes, yes. It used to be very difficult
So, how did you distinguish between them?
-By their moustache -Yes...huh?
Yes sir. Mother used to blunder a lot when we were kids
If he had a cold, she'd wipe my nose
And if I had a tummy ache, she'd give him the medicine
Then one day, with a pencil, father made me a moustache
Since then sir. I've been with this moustache since the age of 5
So, take care of your moustache, my son take care of your moustache
-Ok sister. I don't feel like leaving -But have to leave
-yes, have to go. Greetings -Greetings
-Uncle, these sweets -Yes! sweets, sweets
-I'll see him off till the car -Yes, yes
Lets go
O! Ratna. Put on the fan daughter.Fan! Full speed, fan. O! God.
Fabulous performance aunty
So?
Many, many thanks, Mrs. Srivastava You were amazing in mother's role
And like a mother, you saved from trouble
Take care of this Ram Prasad
Now, Ram Prasad will die and Lucky Sharma will come alive
to teach music to Mr. Bhavani's daughter
Ok, Mrs. Srivastava
Should I make tea for you, aunty?
Ratna, daughter come near me
See, it's alright to call me aunty in public. But can't you call me mother when alone?
Yes, mother
May I say something if you accept
Don't come in my dreams
I walk in my sleep when I see you. Believe me
May I say something if you accept
Don't come in my dreams
I walk in my sleep when I see you. Believe me
It happended yesterday too You went past me
You were a bit disheveled, a bit sad
I ran to cheer you up in my dream
I feel down from the sofa
May I say something if you accept
Don't come in my dreams
I walk in my sleep when I see you. Believe me
Day before yesterday, You had called me
I had hid my face in your hands
I had kissed your hand in my sleep, but
But the kiss was on the bed
May I say something if you accept
Don't come in my dreams
Ratna?
-Mother! -Yes
-Remembered your daughter after so many days! -I had gone to bangalore
-Take this -What's it?
-A Cat -Huh? -Atleast take a look
-Goodness! It must be very expensive -So what?
No, no. I can't accept such an expensive Saree
Alright. If it was your real mother, you wouldn't have thought of the price
You didn't let me finish. Only a saree won't do. I'll also take ear rings
-just like the ones you've worn -Oh! then have these ones
No, no. Why should I take second hand? I'll take new ones
Ok. Lets go to a jeweller tomorrow and you make the choice. Ok?
-what's this? you're looking at your watch already? -I've to go someplace, daughter
Please sit for a while
No dear. I've very important work
Understood. If I were a real daughter, you wouldn't have left as soon as you came
If you say like that, I won't go at all
-where do you have to go? -Can't you see how dressed I am?
There's a very important party
These days we don't have parties. We have fashion parades in the name of parties
We have fancy dress shows.
Where have you come to? The fashion parade or the fancy dress show?
Yes,yes. If you don't make fun of the national dress, how can you be called Broad Minded?
R.C. ....you should backoff. Bhavani has given a face smashing reply
-then let me fix it
-Kamala, what's the matter? -nothing
-We've met after many days. Didn't Sulakha come? -No, she's gone to bangalore -Ok,ok
-yes, it's always like that. How's mother? -She's fine
-Hello Mr. Raman. How are you? -Fine. Thank you
-What about Sushma's beauty contest -Actually, my wife had objections in this matter
That's very backward thinking. Don't worry. I'll convince her. Excuse me. I'll be back
-Sushila, how are you? -I'm fine
-when did u get this made? -Today itself
Yes! I was also thinking of getting a similar one made
-Ok. I'll see you again -ok
[Humming softly]
-Excuse me -Yes
-I think we've met before somewhere -No, I don't think so
Your name?
-I'm called Bhavani Shankar -I'm called Kamala
Kamala Srivastava. Mrs. Kamala Srivastava
Amazing. Not only your face but I feel I've heard your voice before
I'm sure we've met before
- I see, I see. You've met Mrs. Sharma from Khar? -Yes
Yes! Its alright. That's why you have the confusion
-But sister is a widow -Is she your sister? -Yes
Sister is a widow but still people keep getting confused
We are twins
Looks like in your family there is a tradition of twins
You're right. Our granny were also twins. Ganga Rani and Yamuna Rani
And these nephews! Ram Prasad and Laxman Prasad
O! Sheila. Excuse me.
-Let's go to Khar Yes sir
[Bell Rings]
You? Please come in
-Brother isn't at home -And your mother?
-She is taking a bath -Bathing?
Ok. Since I've come. I'll meet her and go
Of course! Please sit
Excuse me. Any important work?
-Yes. Consider it important -You can tell me
I can ask her. Because she take a long time to bathe
No Problem. I'm also in no hurry
[Topsy Turvy brother all is topsy turvy]
[Every straight way has a curved path]
[Topsy Turvy brother all is topsy turvy]
[Topsy Turvy, Topsy Turvy, Topsy Turvy [Topsy Turvy all is topsy turvy]
-Ratna, where has Ram Prasad gone? -Brother? I don't know
Why don't you know? He has gone to the temple
-Temple? -Yes, today is tuesday. Every tuesday he goes to the temple
He is full of traditions. You know all these silly superstitions
I see! I see! Going to the temple, worshipping. All these are bad upbringing!
-And wearing indecent clothes, not working -See, I don't want to argue with you
There is no point in discussing these things. Because there is a big gap between you and me
Generation gap after all. You look at the past with your back towards the future
In fact the sun is rising behind you
You people from olden times can't understand our thoughts
[Laxman!]
[Whom are you talking with?]
Mother! You've come mother.
-I mean you've come back from your bath? -Oh! you!
You talk to him mother. I'll be back
-Greetings brother -Greetings sister. Come, come. Sit.
You be seated too
-How are you now? -Your mercies
-I was passing by. Thought to pay a visit -What are you saying?
We hardly get to see you
Thing is. Yes! Your sister Mrs. Srivastava I met her at a party
Oh! Kamala. How is she?
She's good. She's good
I haven't met her for a long time
Before marriage, we couldn't live without each other
We're twins after all
And then there's my Ram and Laxman Apart from looks they have nothing in common
Hey mom! I'm going. There's a jazz program. Asha Putli is coming. I'll be late returning. Goodnight Mom. Bye Ratna. Toodle do sir
Go daughter. Bring sweets for brother
I'm very worried for this boy, brother
But God has also give you a son like Ram Prasad
So principled...so truthful... so hardworking....so well behaved
not enough words to praise
But these days Ram Prasad looks a bit worried
why worried?
Brother, he respects you a lot almost worships you
He's afraid that he'll make a small mistake and he'll become less in your eyes; then what will happen?
Sister, Ram Prasad becoming less in my eyes? It can't happen
No. He was saying that "one day Sir had a wrong impression of me"
"He was going to fire me"
Sister, I'm ashamed for that incident. But he's still afraid of being fired?
And I'm thinking of making him the General Manager
[Mother]
Mother. Sir, you!
long live my son
-What's this? Why the reverence?
Sir, whenever I bow to the goddess, I bow to my mother too
Because mother is greater than God
-And you're like a father, so I bow to you -Sit, sit, sit. Sit beside me
Long live son
Seeing your devotion, my eyes are wet
Sir please give this blessing that between us there'll never be a wall the width of a hair
what are you saying son?
Sister, you make him understand
Sister, you take rest and allow me
-Yes mother. You rest -Ratna, hurry up!
No, no sister. Let it be today I'm in a bit of hurry. Greetings sister.
-Let's go son -Please come sir
Listen. Remember one thing.
As long as I'm alive no one can even bend your hair
Let's go
We had thought that today brother is finished
-But how did you come suddenly? -Yes, mother hears the cries
See this
-But how did you come into the house? -Yes! from the back
Through the window of the kitchen
-You came through that? -Yes, only I know how I came through
My waist got stuck. Half in half out
I knew that Mr. Bhavani Shankar was already here. I..[ouch]
-what happened? -I got sprained jumping through the window
Wait. Let me put iodex on it
Mother, today I came to know something. You must've been very naughty as a kid.
Yes
In my father's house, the kitchen was on the second floor
There was a tree behind it
Climbing that tree I used to enter the kitchen to steal pickles
Today, I really had the thrill of childhood
-what happened? -mother knew that your boss was here
She jumped through the kitchen window and sprained her leg
For us you've to take so much trouble, Mrs Srivastava -Brother!
-From today, say 'Mother' instead of 'Mrs Srivastava' -Yes, you are right
You must have been our mother in some previous life
I feel the same too
But tell me, I know how you changed your clothes
But how did you get the vermillion mark on your head from the temple so quickly?
Mother, this vermillion is not from the temple
-this is the vermillion of the lips. -Vermillion of the lips?
Yes. See this
Hey! Here eat this.
-what? -'Dahi Bada'
No. I don't feel like eating
What? You don't feel like eating 'Dahi Bada'?
No
If a girl refuses to eat 'Dahi Bada', it has two meanings
Either she is slowly becoming a boy
-My head! -No no. I didn't see those signs either
Then, the other thing is true
What's the other thing?
Surely, you've caught the disease of love
Who is he?
-There is no one -See, you shouldn't lie
One day I also didn't feel like eating 'dahi bada' the next day I knew that I was in love with Bantu
Yes. What's his name?
Lucky. I mean Laxman Prasad
Isn't he the one who comes to teach you music?
Hey Urmi. How is it like to be in love?
I don't understand Pushpa. As long as Lucky is with me, life seems so enjoyable
But when he leaves, it feels like there is nothing left in life
So the matter has gone this far
Has he started coming in your dreams?
Sometimes
-what does he say when he comes? -He comes and teaches me music
Brother, let me say what I've come to say. Don't interrupt in between
That's your bad habit. You don't let me say anything
Whatever you have to say, say in half a minute
half a minute is alright. I need less than half a minute
I'm telling! I'm telling. Don't confuse me by staring at me.
I came to say that these days Urmilla's signs aren't good
What do you have to say? Say it clearly and frankly
She mumbles at night. Yesterday, I don't know what she was mumbling taking Laxman's name
-Taking Laxman's name? -nothing wrong with the boy.
But it's our Urmi who is a bit too drawn towards him
I say brother. Find a nice boy and do a quick engagement and marriage
But sir. What did Laxman do?
No. No. I can't put any blame on Laxman
But this is the thing Ram Prasad
That Urmila, my daughter can't distinguish between gold and brass
She doesn't know what's good for her and what's not good for her
-But she should know this, right? -Naturally sir.
In the pursuit of dancing, singing and parties, Urmila has neglected her studies
Starting today, after office hours, if you can tution her a little, I'll be very grateful to you
What is this you are saying, sir?
But Sir.......
Laxman Prasad. What about him?
Tell him not to come to my house today onwards
Why won't he come daddy?
It's hard to find such a good music teacher not only in Bombay but the whole world.
Its just hard, right? But its impossible to get a teacher like Ram Prasad. Impossible
-But daddy -No buts!
Enough music lessons. Exams are near. Do a bit of studying too!
Ram Prasad has agreed after a lot of hesitation
I want you to see him and learn what a good man is like
Both twin brothers. But there is a difference of heaven and earth between them
Where is Laxman Prasad and where is Ram Prasad!
I'm here sir
Come, come son Ram Prasad Come here. Come here
We were just talking about you
What's this? These clothes? This moustche?
You also got fooled
This isn't Laxman. His twin brother, Ram.
And this is my sister, Kalindi
-Greetings -live long. live long
And this is Urmila
Greetings
Son, today onwards, you take all her responsibility
-What? -I mean..the responsitility of studies
But sir. Where will the studies take place?
Here. In this room
No sir. What I meant was
In such a big room, studies can't be done properly
We get distracted easily
For studies you need a small room. Separate. Very quiet
He's right daddy. I'll fix the room upstairs and we can start studying tomorrow
-Why not today? -You know Pushpa? Its her birthday today
Ok sir. We'll start from tomorrow
By the way, tomorrow is a good day. Auspicious Wednesday
-Ok daddy, I'm leaving. Goodbye -Goodbye
-Ok Sir. I'll also go -How can this be?
You've come to this house for the first time How can you leave without eating and drinking?
-Sit -Yes, sit
-Here. Eat this. I'll get some more for brother -Eat the sweets. Eat.
-Greetings -Greetings. Say
-Is Mr. Lucky home? -Mr. Lucky doesn't live here
I mean Mr. Laxman
O! you're looking for little brother
-Are you Ms. Urmila? -How did you know?
Please come inside
Little brother talks about you so much that I know you by heart
What does he say about me?
One day he said, "Ratna, my Urmila isn't a girl she's the imagination of a poet"
-My Urmila? -Yes. You must've read Ramayana
What else will Laxman call Urmila if not 'my'?
-Please call him -He isn't home
- When will he be back? -Can't say. He's the master of his will
-Then give me a paper. I'll leave a letter for him -Ok
You write the letter. I'll make some tea for you
Today I'm in a hurry. I'll drink it some other day
-See. Please give this letter to him only -Its for him so I'll give it to him only
-Can I get an envelope? -No need of an envelope. Please fold it and I'll give it to him by hand
-I won't read it -No, no. It's not like that
-The letter was a bit personal so.. -All understood. Don't worry at all
I'll give it to him alone
Let's go
-Ratna...Ratna -What is it brother?
Why did Urmila come?
-To meet brother Laxman -What was she saying?
-She has left a letter for him -Give it to me
Why should I give it to you? Letter is for brother Laxman
-Don't joke. -I'm not joking big brother. I promised that I'll give the letter only to younger brother
-Here is your younger brother -Ok. Now I can give you
-I'm dead -What happened?
-She's asked to meet tomorrow at quater to 7 -So what? Meet her
What meet her! I'll get to her house at 5:30 and start teaching her
Studies will finish at 6:30. She'll reach that place easily in her car.
But how can I change from Ram Prasad to Laxman Prasad and reach there in 15 minutes?
Meet her!
There's only one way
Says Kabir. Be of one name. Neither Hindu neither Turkish
So is it illogical to deduce from this that he doesn't take anyone's side?
Saint Kabir, by comparing the religion and works of both...
Why do you keep looking at the watch? Please concentrate on the studies
-It's 6:30 now -Everyday it's 6:30 at this time
-It's one hour. I won't study anymore -But half of the paragraph is still remaining
To study Kabir, one lifetime is less but I'll try to finish by 7:30
-So, saint Kabir.... -Listen. I can't study more than an hour
I get tired
-But this paragraph... -We'll finish tomorrow. Goodbye
-Studies over? -Yes -Have some tiffin
-Today I'm in a hurry... -You're coming straight from work. You have to eat. Brother's command.
What's the hurry?
-I'm very hungry -Ok, ok. Eat, eat. I'll get some more
-So you're here. -Go,go. I'm late. Chandan cinema
Brother in law. Brother in law What are you doing here?
-Your wife is waiting for you there -Wife? -Yes. See there. She's waiting there
Hey! what are you doing. I'm in a hurry. Open the door. I say, open the door
What happened brother? What happened?
See, I was going in. A guy called me brother in law and I stopped
He went inside and closed the door. Is this the way?
-His need was greater than yours -Meaning what?
Meaning, his need was more pressing than yours
What are you saying? Helen has started dancing and singing. I still couldn't hold it.
You are saying that his need was more than mine?
-Thank you brother in law -'Saala' [swear word]
-What did you say? -Brother, he called me brother in law so isn't he my 'Saala' [also mean's wife's brother]
-Correct -Mr. Saala, may I ask something?
You did that thing, changed clothes and shaved your moustache so quickly?
This is called 'Jet Age' ..Ta ta
Come. Come. O Urmi. Mr. Lucky is here
You!
-Why are you so late? -Its my magic that I came so early
Huh! Came early! Come
Sit
Why did you call me here?
We have to meet somewhere. I can't live without meeting you
And if we've to meet like this daily, it'll be difficult for me to live
Yes, yes. I know your eyes are big. See. I'm a straightforward man
Why should we meet in hiding? If we have to meet like this then........
-Forget me -Are you history that I should read and forget?
I'm not but I'll become history. You dad doesn't like me at all
So what?
He must have thought it over and fired me
And he must have made brother your teacher after thinking it over
-If not one brother, then the other -what?
Yes. Its ab. simple
If you start looking at brother, you'll start seeing me in him
Don't you have shame? Canvassing for your brother!
What shame is there in it? One who is Ram is Laxman and one who is Laxman is Ram
Rubbish! That moustached stupid Ram! He can't equal in seven lives.
-There is no question of equality -Here is your tea
Thanks a lot
Listen. We can't talk here. Let's meet at Juhu beach tomorrow. Ok?
Those who meet don't meet. In reality, only those meet who don't meet.
Because what is, isn't there and what isn't there, is there
This isn't merely a play of words And even if its a play, it is the vision
and within this meeting or not meeting, being or not being, lies the ocean of illusion
[Once, this moment fell from time somewhere]
[There I found this tale. The moment is nowhere.]
[By making you laugh a little. By making you cry a little.]
[This moment is also about to go.]
[The soon to come moment is about to go]
[If you can, live your life in this]
[moment that is about to go.]
[The soon to come moment is about to go]
-But why is he coming to meet me again today? -I don't know
Yesterday, in the office he suddenly said "I'll come to meet your mother"
"I've very important work"
I don't like this anymore. What will he think about us the day he finds out?
What do you think? I like all this drama? But what can I do?
-Take courage and tell him everything one day -Yes! He'll hold me by the ear me and fire me
Looks like he's arrived
But mother we have to do something.
-Please come -Greetings - Greetings -You please sit -you please sit
-How is your health now? -Your mercies
Today I've come to discuss some important matters
Yes, yes. Why not?
The matter is...sister
Sir..if you wish..we...outside -No no. Actually I've come to talk about you
I have come to pray to you. Please give my daughter a place at your feet
I've brought her proposal for Ram Prasad
What are you saying? You're so wealthy and this is a small house
Big or small is of a person's heart, sister
What if your house is small? The heart is so big!
I fold my hands. Please don't disappoint me
-But... -No buts sister. You have to say 'Yes'
[Ratna daughter! What's happening?]
Bhavani! What are you doing here?
What are you doing here?
I have asked the question first. You answer.
-This is the house of my Son-in-law to be -Really!
-So you've fixed Urmilla's marriage? With Laxman? -yes
-NO No Noooo -What happened?
-Not with Laxman. With Ram Prasad -Oh!
-Answer me. Why are you here? -Me?
-You know Kamala. Kamala -Kamala??
I mean Bimla. Kamala, Bimla. They both tie me 'Rakhees'
-She's my sister by name -I see
Now I'm stuck. I don't know if I'm on the grooms side or the bride's side
-No issues. You're both. You eat the sweets on both sides
Ok brother. Tell me. When is the auspicious date? We shouldn't delay in this work
Yes. I'll go now and get an auspicious date
Don't get up sister. Son, you stay here. -Greetings -Greetings
Kedar will see me off. Let's go Kedar Greetings. Greetings
-Let's go Kedar -Come. Come
-A new problem has started -Once the marriage is done, all problems will be over
-You don't understand mother -Why?
The problem is, the father likes Ram and the daughter likes Lucky
Daughter doesn't want to see Ram's face and seeing Laxman's face, father's blood pressure rises
-I'm stuck in the middle -So, what will you do now?
There is only one way
For the sake of Ram, Laxman will have to go into exile
Urmila, forget your Laxman
Your Laxman is leaving town forever and ever
[you marry brother. He'll keep you very very happy]
[more than I could]
Amazing! How did you hear this?
But you've heard the truth
The boy is pure gold
I had thought that God stopped making such boys
I went straight to his house and fixed matters with his mother
Yes
Why not? Your daughter is like mine
Ok. Let's meet again. Goodnight
But I won't do this marriage, daddy
What did you say?
It's going to be my marriage, daddy. And you didn't try to know my likes or dislikes
I didn't think it was necessary
-You don't know if your likes are right or not -I have grown up now, daddy
-Even more grown up than me? -But I hate your Ram Prasad, daddy. I hate him
Why don't you try to understand, daddy. Maybe I like someone else
Oh! You think you are in love with someone?
Maybe with Laxman?
Your marriage won't be with one whom you love
Your marriage will be with one whom I love. Meaning Ram Prasad
-Is there a compulsion? -Yes!
You have forgotten the manners, prestige, nobility and origins of your house
Without shame, seeing eye to eye, you talk about your marriage to your father?
My love has spoilt you so much
Your marriage will be with Ram Prasad. Go! Go! Go from here
I'm going. But I still hate Ram Prasad
[Bell Rings]
Who's it?
Urmi!
You!
So late at night!
I've come to ask you
-How could you write that letter? -What else could I do Urmi when your father likes brother?
What if father likes someone!!
You tell me. Whom do you like?
Do I have to tell whom I like?
Say
But Urmi, the depth with which I like you....
-Brother also likes you equally -But I hate him! I hate him!
I hate him very much
-Speak softly! Brother will hear -Let him hear. I don't fear anyone
I have left home for good
-Urmi!- -Yes. I'm going to Pushpa's house
Tomorrow morning you'll come there, take me to a temple and marry me
-Against your father's wishes? -yes!
-I'll lose my job Urmi -What?
-I mean my brother's... -May your brother and his job go to hell
If you don't come tomorrow. Then I...
Then I'll commit suicide. Understood? And the blame will be on you. Remember
-Let's go -Urmi! Listen! Hear me out. Listen!
[Bell Rings]
You! Greetings
-Is Ram Prasad there? -Yes. Please come in. I'll call him
No. I'm alright here daughter. Please call him quickly -Ok. Brother
-Who is it Ratna? -Bhavani uncle is here, big brother
-Moustache? -I'll put it on right now
-He'll be a minute. You come inside.. -What is your other brother doing?
He..he isn't in
Those were my thoughts too. When did he leave home?
He left in the morning
Did you see him leave?
-Was he home at night? -yes. He was in at night
When did you last see him?
Around 10 to 10:30. what's the matter uncle?
-Nothing daughter. Go. Send Ram Prasad quickly -Ok
He looks very serious. He didn't come inside too.
He's cross examining about Laxman like a lawyer
Looks like, very soon a new Ramayan will be written
By Laxman's hands, Ram will be slain
What's this sir? You are standing here? Please come inside
You come outside. I want to talk to you in private
Yes. Sir?
-Your brother Laxman isn't at home? -No sir but what happened?
-With his help my daughter has run away from home -No No Sir
Yes Ram Prasad. I'm going to inform the police
Please don't do that sir. All secrets will be out.
What secrets will be out?
-If the police start asking questions, I'll be left nowhere. I'll get trapped sir. -How will you get trapped?
What I mean is, if Laxman becomes infamours, how will I marry off my sister?
And sir, I can say with certainity that Laxman had no part in your daughter running away from home
How can you be so certain?
After all, what's the difference between us? We are twin brothers
If your brother is innocent then why are you worried?
-I'm going to inform the police -No no Sir. Please!
Please Sir. Give me 3 hours and I'll bring Miss Urmila to your house
How? You know where she is?
No no sir. But I know Laxman's hangouts. And if Laxman knows anything, then..
Ok. Ok. But after 3 hours, I'll inform the police
You?
-Urmi has called me -Oh! Please come in
Please come
Please come. Go on upstairs
Urmi!
-What were you eating? -Poison. Not your business
-Urmi! -Don't call me Urmi
- OK. I won't call you. But listen to me -What do you want to say?
See. Nothing can be done in anger. You need to think with a cool head, Urmi.
-How dare you touch? -Urmi!
-Again Urmi? -Listen
-Don't come forward -Atleast listen
-But why are you venting your father's anger on me -Just get out from here -Listen!
Did I refuse to marry?
-what? -That's what I've come to say
-Oh! so, you came to tell me that? -yes!
You skunk! Ever seen your face in the mirror? Just get out from here
-I don't want to talk to you. Get out of here -But Urmi
-You scoundrel, you scoundrel, you rascal, you you -You..you..what are you doing?
-you..you..You get out from here..get out.. -Listen to me..what's happened to you..
-So, you hate me? -yes
-You don't want to see my face? -yes!
Ok. I'll go away forever. But once. For the last time, look at me. Please
-Ok, I'm leaving -Lucky?
-No, I'm not lucky. I'm stupid. -You are stupid
But you are mine
Bhavani, what is this foolishness? I'm your friend. Trust in me
Urmilla also means something to me
Your honour is my honour
If increasing your blood pressure will solve this, then do it with glee
If I don't increase my blood pressure, should I beat the drum with this thought that
your favourite, ruffina, loafer, moustache-less nephew has run away with my innocent daughter?
Then shout a lot!... Scream a lot! There is Laxman's gain in it
-Laxman's gain? -Yes -How's that?
Brother, if your blood pressure rises, you'll have cerebral haemorrhage
And if you have cerebral haemorrhage, you will die
And when you die, Your wealth will go to Urmilla. To Laxman..Shout!....Shout!
-Then I won't shout -Bhavani, I know Laxman very well
-He is naughty but he isn't a vagabond or hooligan -yes, he is!
You're shouting again?
He is. He is a vagabond, hooligan, ruffian, loafer
-Kedar. I want to speak to Urmilla in private -Ok Ok. Ram let's go
Do just like I told you
Go
Let's go
I'm very sorry daddy.
Please forgive me
You spoke the truth daddy
A man without moustache can't be noble
Laxman. Laxman turned out to be a no. 1 laofer
What's the use of repenting now?
What all programs I had made. I found a boy like Ram for you and you spoilt everything
Nothing has gone wrong daddy
Mr. Ram has..Mr. Ram has forgiven me
And he also said that he...
he still...still...
still what?
he still....
doesn't have any objections in marrying me
-this!..Ram Prasad said this? -Yes
Blessed Ram Prasad
Father used to say that "we shouldn't dwell on small mistakes"
"A human should strive to look into the soul of a human"
"Because the most important thing is Cleaness of Heart"
Yes! Brother used to speak the truth
Look at today's people. Busy with cleaning moustache and beard. No attention towards cleaning the heart
Yes. I also can't understand why these days people keep shaving their moustache
Kalindi!
What is it brother?
Bring Ram Prasad some bread
-No Sir.It's a lot -No. Its not a lot yet. A lot will happen now son.
Eat. Eat. Eat your fill
-Today is the last day to eat -What?
I mean, before marriage you're eating for the last time today
Why are you standing here listening? Bring food. Eat son. Eat. I'll be right back
-Shall I bring 'potato paratha'? -no no
Why no? Your uncle also used to say no but in the end she used to eat 4 persons food
Hello. Police?
Oh! no no. This is too much
How is this too much? This much paratha was enough just to warm up your uncle's teeth
He always says "Kalindi, you talk too much and eat too little"
But son, I couldn't fulfill one of his wishes
-But I'll fulfill it after your marriage -what's that aunty?
He loved to eat 'Radish Mughlai Paratha'. One day, with great effort, I read a book and made some for him
But after eating the first Paratha, he passed away at the dining table itself
Son, after your marriage, I'll make the same 'Radish paratha' for you. Ok?
No aunty. Don't feed me 'Radish paratha', feed me 'Potato paratha' only
Why only 'Potato paratha' son?
I'll feed you Calcutta's 'Royal Bhog'
Delhi's 'Golden Halwa'!
'Peda' from Madras!
-From Benaras..Benaras -Kalakan! -I'll feed you Kalakan
But sir, so many sweets?
Son, if you don't eat, how will you get strength?
And if you don't have strength, how will you bear the police beatings, son?
-Police beating? -Yes, police beating
You cheat! you fraud!
Sir...you...you please forgive me sir.
Forgive?
Not forgive. I will clean you. Police must be on their way
Sir, I....
No! Beware! Beware! I'll shoot you if you try to escape
-Hey Kalindi. Guard the door. Don't let him escape -ok
No sir. I....
I won't escape. You informed the police. You did very well.
-I deserve to go to jail -Yes!
I have done many sins. Let me repent for my sins, sir.
Let me touch your feet
Beware! No feet business! No feet business
Aunty? Atleast you let me touch your feet.
He escaped..he escaped...catch him...catch him
Move away from my front!
Who?
-You! -Shhhhhh
-Your moustache? -It went into your daddy's hands
Spirit gum was less. Bugger came off infront of him. I got caught
What about our marriage now?
Urmi
[Urmi ! Urmi !] -Don't open the door. Don't open the door
[Urmi open the door. Urmi !] No no. I am changing my clothes daddy
-I'm changing my clothes daddy -No no. Say it loudly
I'm changing my clothes daddy
Ok keep the door closed. A big criminal is in the house today.
Today he won't escape my hands
-Kalindi. You see this side. I'll see upstairs -Ok brother
-Go! -I'm going. I'm going
-What will happen now? -Now I'll have to go to jail
There is a way
If we get out from here and get married then daddy won't... his son-in-law
But how will we get out of here?
Over there, the demon is standing with a pistol
-Demon, who? -Your daddy
-You called my daddy!!... -No no. Over there, the angel is waiting to welcome me with a pistol
Now tell me how we get out of here
How to get out of here...
-Tarzan -Meaning what?
-You have a rope, right? -No
-Give me 2/4 bedcovers, shawls,whatever, quickly! -Understood
-Listen, I'll go out and start the car. You meet me there. -Ok
-Listen. You won't fall, right? -No. Go!!
Listen
Nothing
KALINDI #$% !! What are you doing here?
-Brother, I thought.. -Thought! You started thinking too!

Hey! Put your leg down
-Put your leg down! -Who's it?
Inspector sir, you've come?
-I'm not an inspector -not an inspector?
Then you must be a thief, petty thief, hooligan or vagabond
NO!
What! This is a police station. So, there will be the police or thief, petty thief, hooligan and vagabond
-Will there be a great soul here? -No!
-I'm a businessman -businessman?
Then I'm also a businessman
Glad to meet you
No! You're a businessman and so am I. Looks like we both have the same business.
Where is your liquor shop?
Hey! Why keep throwing bombs? My drunkenness will be over
Will you keep quiet or not?
Ah! Its good..understood...understood..
Understood brother
Its the first time you've been caught so you are nervous
Brother, there is no need to worry
I have the medicine for it. I'll give it to you
Look that way. Look that way. Look that way
Brother. Its from the first batch. Take two gulps
You'll have a lot of fun. All nervousness will go away
Drink, drink. Drink and see.
What have you done?
You insulted alcohol! And its your livelihood. Unfaithful!
-Shut up! -Hey, be silent. Big officer is coming
-What is this? -Greetings, big officer. Greetings
Why have you become thin sir?
You will never straighten up
Sir. What's my fault sir?
The Municipality said, Jaundice is on the rise, drink water after boiling
That's why people stopped drinking water and my business flourished
There are some people, sir, who neither drink liquor nor water
They drink something else. Let it go sir. [sniggers]
What a joke sir! [sniggers]
-Constable -Yes sir -Put him in the lockup
Wait a minute. Sir he's my friend. He got caught for the first time
Please give him less punishment. Greetings sir.
Take him away. Take him away
Ok brother. Tata, tata, bye bye
Why has he been brought here?
Rash driving sir. Hit a police jeep. A revolver was also found on him
Revolver?
I have license
Show it
It's at home
What did you find in the car?
Nothing sir
It means he was running away after dumping the goods
What were you smuggling? Whose goods were those?
What do you mean "whose goods were those"? Do I look like a smuggler, moustache-less!
-Do you start drinking from morning? -I don't drink alcohol
That drunkard spilt it on me
But officer, officer. You car was parked to the wrong side. It was not my fault
It is obvious that you don't know me
This one speaks english
Now I know you. Welcome home. Welcome home
Famous bandit, dacoit, murderer, smuggler, cheat, Mr. Pascal DeCosta
-Pascal? -yes
-If I'm Pascal, you are Rascal -Shut Up!
You're tricking us with your false moustache?
-Constable -Yes Sir -Remove his moustache
Beware! Beware!
-What happened? What happened? -Sir, his moustache is real
-moustache is real? -you attacked my moustache!
I won't let go off you
I'll go to the High Court I'll go to the Supreme Court
I'll raise it in the Parliament, you bloody buffon!
Hey Mr. Pascal. Don't forget that I'm a police officer
-You are a police officer? -Yes
You're not a police officer, you're a foolish officer
F.O.O.L.I.S. H. Foolish meaning Idiot
-Shut Up! -Come On!
Mr. Bhavani Shankar ! you here?
-Mr. Bhavani Shanka? -Yes sir, He is a very big industrialist
-Are you sure? -Of course, sir.
Oh God!
Please pardon me. It's not my fault.
Have a look at this photo. It looks like your twin brother
Officer, you can beat me, imprison me, hang me But don't say the word 'twin' infront of me
Ok sir. I won't say
Do you want to drink something cold?
Do you want to go home?
-Sharma, take him home -Yes sir. Please come
Thank you
You are welcome sir
-Constable, bring me my moustache -what?
-Oh brother! Bring me something cold. Cold!
Ok Sir
-You've come back brother? Congratulations -Congratulations for what?
-Urmilla got married -Very good
WHAT? With whom?
with Laxman
This marriage can never happen
But the marriage is done brother they've already circled the fire
I'll make them go anti-circles, anti-circles
A Hindu marriage can't be broken so easily, brother
Mrs. Srivastava. You?
You can call me Mrs Srivastava and Mrs Sharma too
I didn't understand
I'll explain
First tell me Bhavani Why are you so angry on Laxman?
Only because he doesn't have a moustache? -Only !!
For one who chopped his moustache,how long would it have taken him to chop his brother's neck?
-Huh? -Yes
Yes, Laxman has killed his brother Ram Do you understand murder?
He came here wearing a moustache so that in the guise of Ram I..
-Listen to me -No! I won't listen to any of you now
You are correct! You're speaking the truth. Don't listen to anyone. Just listen to me
Lo! one more moustache-less has arrived. Who are you brother?
-I'm Prasad's friend -Which Prasad?
-you can say Ram Prasad or Laxman Prasad -Beware!
Don't take the name of Laxman Prasad in front of me
Sir..Sir..Sir.. Please think
If for some reason you have to shave your moustache
Will you change from Bhavani Shankar to Poppat Lal?
You won't become, right? Just look towards the world
Jawaharlal Nehru, Mao Tse Tung, President Kennedy. Did they have moustaches?
No. Were they great men? Yes!
And look at the other side
A small Hitler with a small toothbrush like moustache. And how big was the destruction of his mind?
Bhavani. Is nobility a bird which makes its nest in a moustache?
Meaning what?
Meaning you saw Ram watching hockey
Then to save his job, he had to lie to you
He had to play the act of a twin brother. Even Kamala had to.
And you didn't even find out
Oh No!
Come son. Come. Come
Bhavani. Give them blessings.
Hey! Go. go.
Please forgive me sir
Hey! not sir. He's your father-in-law. Say father. Father!
Please forgive me....Father
Daddy
Brother
Uncle
Brother
Bhavani
Please
Alright! Alright!
Ready?
Smile
