Hail Sai!
Consecrating the divine Sri Sai with the milk of holy Kamadhenu...
Consecrating the sweetness of sweet of divine Sri Sai with honey...
Consecrating divine Sri Sai with the cool sandalwood...
Consecrating divine Sri Sai with the holy water of river Ganges...
Consecrating the luminescent Sri Sai with the sacred ash...
Hail Sri Sai...dedicate the victory to your holy feet...
This is lndia, holy land... land of Karma.
Lord Rama, Lord Krishna and Lord Buddha incarnated here.
lt produced seer like Veerabrahmendra Swamy who foresaw future.
With the blessings of chaste women,
without following the Karma of sins,
conducting good deeds only,
many a great Sages like Adi Shankaracharya,
were born in this holy as representatives of God.
Sri Guru Raghavendra Swamy, Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa,
Sri Ramana Maharishi, such great ascetics appeared here,
they were accepted and shown devotion like God.
Sainath is one of those great men.
Sai presides from the hearts of millions of people all over the world.
To tell the truth, there's no place in Telugu land without a Sai temple.
Where did he come from? Who were his parents?
Who this great soul is?
Whose incarnation he is?
A wonder happened one day on this universe...
Goddess Parvathi asked husband, who the most chaste woman is?
Said Umapathy that Anasuya, wife of Sage Athri, adopted son of Lord Brahma...
Hearing this, consorts of Trinity got angry...
To test Anasuya, they sent their husbands to her...
Anasuya offered payers to the three divine guests...
Astonished to hear to serve them nude...
Turning Trinity into infants, she came nude...
The chaste woman breast fed the Gods and became their mother...
Lakshmi, Saraswathi, Parvathi were shocked seeing their husbands as infants...
They begged her to forgive them and return their husbands...
Anasuya returned Trinity to their consorts and became their mother-in-law...
The power of Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva were divested to Sage Athri...
Creator, protector and destroyers of this world...
Brahma, Vishnu and Parameshwara merged into one body...
Cow, symbolizing charity and peace behind him...
Four dogs around him symbolizing the four Vedas...
There are the five powers that became Sri Datta...
Shone bright like the light of dharma...
Bow with devotion to Lord Shiva...
Looks like a young boy is meditating under the neem tree.
Let's meet him. - Come.
Who is he? New to the place?
Don't know, never saw him before.
Why are his eyes closed? - Shall we ask him?
Hey you! Who are you? Why don't you answer us?
Hey you! Why don't you answer us?
Answer us...you... - Boys, go away!
Ganga Bai, l see brightness in the boy!
Yes, the boy looks like a young Yogi!
lt seems a boy is meditating under the neem tree, aunt.
Yes, l too heard about him. lt seems he's bright and divine!
Who could that boy's mother be?
lf he had parents, why would he sit under a tree like an orphan?
But his face is divine! - Yes, true!
Guru!
Why are you shivering in fear? Did you see snake?
Guru... - Snake bit you!
When? - Just now!
Really? - We saw it with our eyes.
Then, see where the snake has gone! - Come.
lt died! Oh my God!
Guru! What's this? Generally man dies if a snake bites him.
How come snake died after biting you?
lt wriggled and died miserably!
Who am l? - You're village head!
1854!
Who is ruling our country? - Englishmen!
What's their language? - English!
We must speak English and be barbaric like them.
lf anyone crosses swords with us,
they must die like that snake!
Oh! You're more poisonous than a deadly snake!
Not just poisonous but l've matter too!
Madam must tell about that.
What are these names?
Names of our children l wish we had!
You always cared about interest and money, never cared about me.
lt seems a boy is meditating under the neem tree.
lt seems he's very cute, bright and divine.
Let's adopt him as our son.
Why him? lf we keep a dog...
lt'll guard home. - lf we have a rooster...
lt'll wake us early morning!
lf it fails to? - We can cook and eat it.
Please listen to me.
Entire village is talking great about that boy.
People must talk great about Bhatia only!
l'll drive him away from here. Come!
lf you're hungry, please eat this chapatti, dear.
This tastes good!
Are neem leaves tasty? lt's bitter, right?
ls it? Eat and tell me.
lt's sweet like sugar! - Really?
Let me also taste it.
Yes, it's sweet like sugarcane juice. - lsn't it?
What are you saying? How can neem taste sweet?
Just because we're listening, are you narrating cock and bulls story?
Not by listening, taste to know it, please give me also a leaf.
For us too!
lt's bitter! - As you feel so it tastes!
Who are you?
Where have you come from?
Where did that lightning come from?
Where is your native place?
Which place does that thunder belong to?
Are you questioning me?
Okay, l'm asking as the village head. What's your father's name?
l don't know.
Okay, who is your mother? - l don't know.
He doesn't his own name, who his parents are or where his place is,
were you born to wind? That's why are you eating leaves like a goat?
You look like a mad boy!
lf one who eats leaves is mad, then l'm mad!
Did you hear it? He has accepted he's mad.
Look, l'm sparing you because you're a boy,
enough these mad people around!
No place for the new!
Leave this place by tomorrow morning, if not...
l'll show who l am tomorrow!
Why not now?
l'm not in a mood to beat. - Go... - Go!
Did you see the boy? Did you like him? - He's dead!
No hubby...
By morning he must leave this place! - How dare he question me!
l'm not lucky to have children anymore!
What a surprize!
lsn't this strange, Ganga Bai? - Yes!
The tree is here, fallen leaves are here.
But the boy is here to eat it. - No!
What happened to him? He ran away!
He ran away fearing me!
Don't talk like that, Bhatia!
Though entire village is wet with rain water,
not a drop around this neem tree, see!
ls this logic?
Rain fell there and it didn't here.
lt rained in Khopargaon but not here!
There's water in the sky there but no water in the sky above this tree.
How can it rain here?
Bhatia, the boy is truly divine! Trust me!
That boy is a thief,
he has learnt tricks to cheat and loot our village.
When l questioned him? He ran away!
Go...go...go.. - Go home...go home...
What has happened to the poor boy?
Don't know where has he gone?
God is one!
There's one sun!
There's one moon!
There's one God!
lt's you who worshipped Rama as God...
lt's you who venerated Jesus as God...
lt's you who chanted Allah...
Let anyone call Him by any name...
Let them offer prayers as they wish...
The one who created and taking care of this nature is...
There's one God... there's one and only God...
Raising the saffron flag and chanting the sacred monosyllable...
You said it is Hindu religion...
Raising green flag with crescent moon and star...
You said it is lslam religion...
Wetting the holy cross with the blood of Jesus...
You said it is Christianity religion...
Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism...
Let it be any heart or any call...
The one who created and taking care of this nature is...
There's one God... there's one and only God...
Wind never shows any class difference between king and poor...
lt is God's grace...
Whether is palace of gold or a poor hut...
Rain showers same on without any difference...
lt is God's mercy...
God resides in the temples of hearts of humane people...
Come out from the illusion of caste and religion...
Everything is His image...
Every life is His incarnation...
l don't see anyone here!
Here!
Who is it?
Why are you looking shocked, Chand Bhai?
How do you know my name?
l know that's why l called you, right?
Then, tell me whom l'm searching now?
For you missing horse Bijili!
Allah! You're right!
l never lie!
What is your name?
Nobody has called me by any name till now.
You said so many things, can you tell me where my horse is?
There, near the pond.
l was standing there till now and shouting...
What did you do? - l shouted and came.
lt'll not come if you shout. Call with love it'll come.
Whatever work you do, do it with dedication and softly.
Can l call it?
Here it comes!
Allah willed it!
Thank you very much!
Your horse has come back,
will you smoke from your favourite tobacco pipe?
l need fire to light it, right?
lf you ask, God will give anything.
You're not an ordinary man! You're God!
God is one!
Are you from the nearby village?
No! l've to go further up!
There's a marriage in my village, if you wish, you can join me.
l'll come but one condition!
lf l stop anywhere, you mustn't ask me why?- Okay.
My carts are there! Come!
Come Sai!
Sai?
Baba!
Where were you all these days, Baba?
Baba?
Sai..? Baba...?
Sai Baba!
When asked your name, you said you didn't know!
How would l know that's my name?
l'll answer if you call me as Sai or Baba!
Move...move.
l'll call you as Fakir, will you answer me?
lf you think l'm a Fair, then l'm!
You left this place, why did you come back?
Why did you come back?
This wind called me, this land invited me! l'm here!
Looks like your madness has grown! - ls he mad?
l missed my horse and was searching for it everywhere,
he's the great man who told me it is near the pond.
Told you great thing! Shut up man!
Any horse would go to the pond for water, would it go to the rocks?
Keep quiet, Bhatia! l know who he is!
When he first came to Shiridi, l saw a wonder happen!
What? ls there a cellar under the neem tree?
Did the boy enter it?
Lie but don't tell white lie! White lie!
lf you don't believe, it's your fate!
Okay, let's dig under the tree.
lf there's no cellar as you say, l'll bury you in the ditch.
Let's see whether l get buried or your ignorance!
Why? Let's bury Bhatia if there's a cellar!
Let's bury him!
Have you got sense at least now, Bhatia?
You said about burying Ganga Bai if there's no cellar here.
As decided Bhatia must be buried here.
Yes, bury Bhatia!
Sir, run away if not they'll bury in the ditch you made!
lf they bury you there...
No need to light a lamp for you. Already there are 5 lamps!
You fed us with your hands. - We don't want to cover you with mud!
Cellar...lamps...mud! They'll bury me!
Where's he? - Where's he?
Please close this cellar!
This is the place of my Guru! - Okay, Sai! Close it!
Hail Sai...
l seek refuge in you, Sainath...
Listening to the story of Sainath cleanses all the sins...
Divine feet of Sai is holy river Bhagirathi...
Chanting Sai's name is holy hymn...
Baba, you look like my brother.
Bhaicha, our relationship isn't of this birth.
We've siblings for many births!
Seeking alms from people...
A mendicant who carries sins of people...
Lighting the lamps with water...
He illuminated people with wisdom...
Coming!
Keeping the hand in fire...
A soul mate who saved the life of a child...
Serving the diseased with devotion and blessing them...
He cured the disease and became a God...
Giving new lease of life to a mother who gives life to us...
Grinding the stone...
Keeping disease at bay...
A noble spirit who saved poor from the danger...
Where are you Sai?
Where are you?
l'm unable to walk, please come to me...
l don't get peace till l see you...
Are you always in meditation? Don't you think of your hunger?
Don't from which birth relationship is...
Don't know how long we've been indebted to each other...
Tell me Sai...
Tiger...tiger...
Every image is the mirror image of itself...
A sage who emancipates deadly beasts too...
When cyclones hit... People run for cover...
Ordering it to stop to save people like holy Mount Goverdhan...
l don't think the smoke isn't from your cigar.
lt looks like someone's house is burnt!
This isn't smoke but my jealousy!
Has any new money lender come here offering low interest?
Not interest, people are hailing Baba, who roams with a stick.
l'm also carrying a stick, but why don't people hail me?
What should we do to make people hail us?
That's all?
People are praising Baba when he just walks past!
lf you buy a good horse... - Riding on it.- lf you go past!
When people of the village see it...
Hail Bhatia!
Then, we've to buy a good horse!
Did you call me, Baba?
l'm hungry, can you get me chapattis please?
Are you hungry, Baba?
l'll go home and make chapattis for you.
Baba, l've brought chapattis for you. Take this.
l made those chapattis for you, Baba.
Why did you give it to the dog?
What did l tell you, Lakshmi Bai? - You said you were hungry.
l can talk so l asked you.
lt can't talk so didn't ask you.
lf it's hunger is satiated, my hunger too is satiated.
Look at the eyes of the dog! How gratefully it is looking at you!
ln God's creations animals too were given the same hunger a humans,
but the knowledge he gave to humans was denied to animals.
You enlightened me from my ignorance, Baba!
Not just your ignorance but this fire will enlighten all the ignorant.
Who is he? Where did he come from?
The beggar who came here...
One who begs to live, how can he liberate you?
He's a cheat, trickster, sorcerer...
No, he's just a man!
l'll prove it...
l'll open the eyes of people...
Kashiram sent this with great love.
Let's call it as Shamakarmi.
Take care of it from now. - Okay Baba.
Come, Shamakarmi.
l'm Nanavali!
l know.
You know but still sitting? Get up!
Who do you think he is, Nanavali?
l'm here to know it.
Are you in sense to say that? - How dare!
No need to be brave to seek truth!
One needs to be brave to tell the truth.- Are you mad?
You'll lose eyes!
He wants to ask something, please let him ask.
Are you God?
Who said so?
When l came here, some called me Sai Baba,
some called me a Fakir,
people who got treated by me called me a doctor,
now you say God!
God is one!
lf God is one, why do we've different names as Rama and Krishna?
What is this?
Water!
ln Telugu it is 'Neellu'.
ln Tamil it is 'Thanneeru'.
ln Kannada it is 'Neeru'.
ln Hindi it is 'Paani'.
ln Malayalam it is 'Vellam'.
ln English it is 'Water'.
Though it called by different names, it is the same thing, right?
God too like that only!
Trying to escape with an intelligent answer.
Answer my questions directly,
what is faster than wind? - Mind!
What is faster than mind? - Thought!
What's the animal with knowledge? - Man!
What man shouldn't have? - Ego!
What they should have? - Affection!
Reason for sorrows? - Desire.
What man should keep? - Promise!
When would man be peaceful? - After death!
Can't you believe it? Doesn't it look like true?
As time passes people think what follows them is age,
but what chases man is age, selfishness, jealousy, avarice, desire.
They don't leave man till he dies!
That's why l said man is peaceful only after death
Great soul! You've told the truth about life and death!
Did you ask these questions thinking Baba wouldn't know it?
Nanavali didn't ask because l don't know.
lsn't it, Nanavali? - Yes, Baba.
You're the supreme of all Yogis!
Though all of them believe you, few still don't believe you!
l've come this far to open their eyes.
Asked you so many questions.
Bye!
l'll not get down. - Get down.
Teacher Shyama says you're not attending school regularly.
Get down! You must go to the school.
lf you ask me to go to school, l'll jump down!
Don't threaten me! You must go to school, that's it!
l'll jump! - Get down!
l'll jump!
Please listen to me. - Then, l'll jump!
Baba, you were in the mosque, right? How did you come here?
l don't need vehicles for my travel!
You saved my son, Baba. You're God to me, Baba.
No, you're my mother who satiated my hunger.
You came in search of me and offered food.
You fed me fondly, my mother!
l've to repay your gratitude, right?
Our bond is of 72 births old!
Will you go to school and study as your mother says?
Say l'll study!
Allah will do you good!
l can see only animals here, where are the people?
Who are you guys?
Are you here to buy or beg?
What's here to beg? - Why not?
Droppings of horses, pigs and chicken
Keep it with you and sell the animals!
Your faces don't appear like buyers! - How do they look then?
Like people who would take happily even a camel's urine if given free!
No need anything free, we want a good horse!
Why do you want a horse, why not buy an elephant?
Why not buy a camel? Why not buy a donkey?
We're here, right? - You're right.
lf our boss rides on horse, he'll look majestic!
Camel would be much more majestic!
Who would ride the horse among you? - That's him!
Why doesn't he talk to me? - Move!
lf you tell the rate, he'll talk to you.
l want to know a thing before that. - What is it?
Will you tie the horse outside or inside the house?
Will you feed grass to it or eat you too?
What bothers you where we keep after buying it!
You're wrong! Horse is my son! - l mean like son!
Camel is mother... - like mother...
Elephant is my father...like father... - You're right!
How much would he pay for the horse? - 10 coins!
You'll get camel droppings! - 20 coins!
You'll get goat's phlegm! - 30 coins!
You'll get a basket of chicken droppings!
You said so many things, can l say one thing?
What's wrong with you if you can talk?
That one!
When you ride this horse! - Added beauty to the horse!
But there's no one here to see it. - Other than us!
Allah is God!
Guru! - Look there!
Woman is taking bath! - They may beat us!
Look there!
Not Baba, let's prove he's a fake Baba!
Let's go to mosque, give him receipt and send him out of Shiridi.
What a brain!
Can't say if he has or not unless we remove the cap.
Shut up! Come...come...
You'll be fine, mother.
Hey fakir!
Hey fakir! l'm calling you.
How dare you call Baba as fakir! You'll go blind!
l'll call him many more names! He has charmed you all!
l'll prove he's a fake!
What will you prove? We'll throw you out!
lf you understand his cheating, you'll throw him out yourselves.
Am l cheating them?
Other than this cloth and a begging bowl, l don't have anything.
Saying you've nothing, made everyone believe you're God!
lf you really create magic, why are you begging food then?
You can create it yourself, right?
You can bring it from thin air, right?
You can create vegetables too, right?
Why to beg? Why to beg?
l'm begging to accept their sins.
Did you hear? All of you are sinners!
lt seems he's taking your sins!
You didn't get what l said, Bhatia!
Every man would commit sins wittingly or unwittingly,
While pounding paddy, while sweeping homes, while cooking,
unwittingly he kills many micro-organisms,
and commits sins!
l'll accept it as alms.
Give the fruits of good deed of feeding the poor to them.
ls feeding the poor such a great deed?
Yes, eating the food you have is nature!
Plucking the food of others to eat is against nature.
Giving the food you have to others is culture!
Have you understood now why Baba begs?
Know how great deed is feeding the poor!
Learn to share your food with others!
Let's come to the point!
Our boss has committed grave sins!
Why don't you beg from him?
He has done so many sins that can't be washed away by my begging.
Such a big man is riding such a small horse!
l think he's not feeding it properly!
His sins can be washed only with punishment not with begging.
Baba is jealous that you're riding on a horse!
Boss, they're ignorant.
lf you enter the village riding this horse,
people would salute you!
Come...come...
How to get Baba to our way?
Why do we hear your words like barks?
Boss...dog!
Horse is running away! Catch it!
How can we? lt ran away!
Why did you say how? - lt barked and jumped on you!
Shut up! Come.
Stones thrown at him have turned into flowers! Let's go!
You...
Hit Baba with this stone! lt'll wound him severely!
Come Tatya!
l made a mistake, please forgive me, Baba.
Tell me...tell me... - Please don't beat sir.
Where did you steal these jewels from?
Please don't beat me, sir. - Tell me...tell me l say!
Where did you steal these jewels from?
l'm telling you the truth!
Shiridi Sai Baba gave it to me!
Shiridi Sai or fake Baba! Tell me the truth!
Revenue Officer! He's not telling the truth!
Let's call that fake Baba, we'll know the truth!
Don't say like that, thousands pray Baba with love!
lt's not good to call here a great man like him.
Let's go to him.
Okay, let's settle it there!
Greetings Baba!
My daughter struggling with labour pain,
you sent sacred ash with your blessings to save mother and child.
l know you're God like man!
But still l'm here to inquire about a theft case.
What's the connection between the theft and Baba?
He's a thief, he claims that fakir gave it to him.
Did he say like that?
He did that's why l'm here to inquire.
lf he says l gave him, it means l gave him, right?
Your clothes are worthless,
if you're sold nobody would buy you for 25 paise too,
where did you get so much ofjewellary?
Hey police! Mind your words!
We'll not keep quiet if you accuse Baba. - What can you do?
As you watch, shall l beat this fake Baba to get the truth?
lf you dare touch out Baba, rivers of blood would flow here. Be careful!
You won't go back! - Let's see!
l'll inquire! You calm down.
Your name?
For the sake of record! Can't avoid it! Tell me!
l'm called as Sai Baba!
Your father?
Sai Baba!
What? How can you and your father have the same name?
ls there any law forbidding it?
Your Guru? - Venkusa!
Your caste? - Godliness!
Your religion? - Religion of Kabir.
Your age?
Few lakhs of years!
You're talking to ajudge, you mustn't tell lies!
l never tell lies!
Did you see? l wanted to settle in court,
but you came here saying he's a great man!
He claims Baba gave him, Baba says he never tells lies!
Where did you get these jewels from?
Did God send it?
l gave him. - l gave him!
Baba! Please forgive me! l stole the jewels!
But people are taking the crime on their heads for your sake.
l stole it from rich people coming here for treatment of their beloveds.
Sir, l committed the crime. Punish me!
There's no better punishment than repentance.
l'm releasing you as innocent.
Baba, please forgive me.
Sir, you did your duty!
But this police officer went over the board!
He insulted our God!
He'll pay for it.
Fall at his feet seeking forgiveness.
Baba, l know only to take thieves to jail!
But you know to convert thieves into devotees!
l was harsh without knowing your greatness.
l can't get rid of this sin with my life!
To wash this sin, l need to take a holy bath in Ganges.
To take a dip in Ganges and Yamuna!
No need to go to Prayag to take a holy dip!
lf you make a wish, it'll come here!
Hail supreme soul Sri Sainath!
Holy rivers Ganges and Yamuna flowed from your divine feet...
lt is love and grace flowing on us...
Any holy place or holy pond to us is you Sai...
Any life or thought is you...
You're omnipresent, Sai...
This world is your Dwarakamai...
l don't bow to anyone else other than Lord Rama. Please leave me.
Please listen to me, make a visit to Baba!
You'll know it! Come.
Shiridi Baba is different from fake Babas.
l'm telling you, come.
You're God among humans...
You appear like Lord Rama of Kosala...
You've spread the message of utmost devotion...
You appear like Lord Hanuman...
You've showered your divine mercy on us...
You appear like Lord Shiva...
You're the oneness of 3 crores of Gods...
You're omnipresent and omnipotent...
All are cows herded by you, Krishna...
Be my companion to show the path, Krishna...
All are your devotees, Krishna...
You're never ending love, Krishna...
Supreme lord of world... Saviour of the universe...
You're omnipresent Krishna...
You're omnipotent Krishna...
Why did you stop? Come, Sundari Bai!
How do you know my name?
Not just your name,
l know why you are here leaving Pandaripur.
You've charmed many with your talk. Can't charm me!
The place where Supreme soul Krishna lives is Dwaraka,
why did you name this mosque after it?
Why do you call it as Dwarakamai?
Why do you think l did?
Question can't be an answer to question. - Then, listen.
Dwaraka means place which has doors on all four sides.
Caste, religion, sub caste, race,
without bothering about all this,
it means anyone can enter this place.
Whether it is mosque or a temple or a church,
it is built with mud and stones, right?
People who see it as mosque, it is a mosque,
for those who see it as temple, it is temple!
What's the doll in your hands?
Radha and Krishna!
For ordinary people it is just mud dolls.
You see it with heart, so you see Radha and Krishna.
lf you see with faith, you can see temple in this mosque,
and see Krishna in whom you've faith!
Please forgive me, Baba.
From this moment Shiridi is my Pandaripur!
You pray Radha and Krishna, so l'll call you as Radhakrishna Mai! Okay?
l'm blessed!
Why did you come back?
You gave a lousy horse, it humiliated me.
lt didn't come on its own, you ate its share of grass,
it ran away getting angry on you!
l don't care about, return the horse to me.
lf it comes, take it.
lf it comes... - You get on it.
lt throws you down. - You break your back.
lsn't this the reason that has not made madam a mother?
Why do we need it?
What shall we do then?
Why don't you take the camel?
Why should we take the camel?
When others go in single bullock cart,
if you go camel, it's like living one pillar fort!
Just say yes. - Say yes Guru!
You can talk, right? Why are you hesitating?
He said yes! Give the camel to him!
Are you leaving me alone here, O mother camel?
lf you face any difficulty there...
Earlier it was horse and took time to come back.
This is camel, it may come back immediately.
l beg you, let's go.
Who are you people? What brings you here?
They're from Shiridi! All are devotees of Sai Baba!
Baba is an incarnation of God! - He's God to us!
l heard some fakir gives sacred ash!
Devotees coming to Shiridi for festival in 15 years have reached 75000.
Baba has decided this year to celebrate Ramanavami and Urs together.
They're here for your permission.
There's acute water problem everywhere.
With the grace of Baba, when he put flowers into dried wells,
those wells filled with water!
Even salt water wells turned into sweet drinking water.
Not only that, every year in the festival of 'Chavidi',
we take in a procession his sandals and celebrate grandly!
Hail Sainath!
lf you grant them permission, they'll celebrate Ramanavami and Urs!
l'm granting you permission.
Do you want security?
Baba's grace is our security! Bye sir!
Mother...mother...
Why are you so happy?
Baba has given me the responsibility of Ramanavami celebrations.
He said, nephew, take charge of the celebrations!- ls it?
Don't be happy for it, do it with utmost devotion!
With Baba here in Shiridi, many are getting work and food.
lt has become a holy pilgrim place!
As a little boy, l made fun of Baba ignorantly!
lf Baba asks l'm ready to give my life also, mother.
That's enough!
He promises to look after like his own life.
You're ready to sacrifice your life for him.
Only he can understand the relationship between you both.
He said that our relationship is 72 births old!
Hindus and Muslims have fallen into a trance!
They've forgotten religion! Fell into the charm of Baba!
He's insulting Hindus and Muslims by celebrating Navami and Urs together.
That's why l've called you from neighbouring villages.
lf we leave it like this,
Shankar Shastri would become Shankar Khan,
Bismillah Khan would become Bismillah Shastri!
A new religion will take birth!
Beard is beard! - Tuft is tuft!
How can both be same?
l swear on my sacred mark, we'll not let this happen.
We'll not let them celebrate Ramanavami!
We'll not allow celebrating Urs with Ramanavami!
We'll not let it happen!
Hail Lord Rama... beauty is in chanting thy name...
Ramanavami tells the essence of Rama's story...
Entire village is celebrating...
Sky too is dancing in joy...
Kausalya was blessed with son Rama in the palace of Dasaratha...
Dasarathi established world peace on a mission with Sage Vishwamithra...
Epitome of goodness turned stone into woman with the dust of his feet...
Rama married Seetha breaking the legendary bow of Lord Shiva...
You're Lord Shiva prayed by Rama to us, Sai...
Rama Sai...
Journey to Dandakaranya tells the value given to father's words...
Rama's journey took a turn with the magic Deer...
Rama crossed the sea by building a bridge with the help of monkeys...
Rama became king after wiping out demon Ravana in a battle...
You're Rama...you're Krishna... you're Ranga to us Sai...
You're an abode of all Gods...
You're Saint Guru Sai of Shiridi...
Let's decide it once for all today, come!
Stop it!
They've stop singing long back. - Shut up!
Who is conducting Ramanavami celebrations here?- We!
Are you a Hindu? - Yes.
Will you dance in celebration with Urs?
Aren't you ashamed of being a Hindu?
Not shame, we feel proud of celebrating it with Urs!
What celebrating together? Do you know this?
Hindus write from left to right, Muslims write from right to left!
You're right!
Hindus sport moustache and Muslims shave it!
You're right!- Hindus shave beard and Muslims sport it.
You're right!
Hindus and Muslims have different customs.
Why to discuss with them? Beat them!
Stop!
Hindus and Muslims are living peaceful in Shiridi as brothers!
Are you trying to create differences coming from outside?
First decide who you are! Are you a Hindu or Muslim?
l'm a Hindu to Hindus and a Muslim to Muslims!
No need to talk to them, just say yes,
we'll throw them out of this place.
You came here to do something, they're angry but you're silent.
Beat them!
Stop!
Bhatia! Are Hindus and Muslims different?
He's Abdullah, a Muslim!
He's Hindu! Both are wounded!
Find which blood belongs to Hindu and which blood belongs to Muslim?
Air we breathe and water we drink has no religion!
Earth into which we go after death too has no religion.
Death is beyond religion, why do you want it to live?
My wish is that Shiridi must become a role model to world not just to lndia.
There must be only one holy pilgrim place to all religions.
My dream is that Shiridi becomes that place.
lf you think l'm bringing bad name, l'm ready to leave Shiridi!
Don't do injustice to your devotees, Baba!
We don't want Shiridi without you!
No, please let me go!
What happened to you? Give him way!- Shut up!
Baba, please forgive us listening to this devil's words!
You opened our eyes by teaching man is important than religion.
God is one! Your doctrine is true!
May every village be blessed with communal harmony like in Shiridi.
Baba, we'll live together like brothers hereafter!
Sai Baba! - Hail Sai Baba!
Sir, get on the camel, that dog may chase you again.
Get on!
My plan went awry and they joined his ranks!
Don't say how!
Ride it faster!
You're safe ion the camel, we're on ground!
Why do the flowers smell bad?
Not from flowers, it's emanating from boss.
What's this slush? - Not slush but dung!
What happened to him?
Hindus and Muslims were served food as part of Ramanavami celebrations,
A big ditch was dug for public convenience.
Boss came on a camel and fell into it.
lt took an hour to take him out.
l told him not to trouble Baba, that's why he got punished.- lndeed!
Madam, though you're sporting flowers, please sleep in the next room.
ls it morning sickness madam? - l think it's twins!- l'll beat you, boys!
Hail Sai Baba!
Not a soul other than us three must know about this plan.
Guru, camel is hearing you!
lt has long neck but small head! What can it do anyway? Listen carefully!
At midnight as Shiridi is sleeping,
let's send Baba into permanent resting place!
Get men from outside, cut Baba into pieces!
What would've happened?
This Baba...
What we saw just now? ls it true or dream?
ls it imagination or hallucination?
We don't need knives any more. - Keep it with you.
lf we're seen with weapons, people may think we'd killed Baba.
What shall we do now?
Well! Shall we throw into it? - Okay!
Come...over!
Come!
Have you come? Did you cut Baba into pieces?
Why don't you answer me?
Give me the good news of killing Baba. l'm tensed!
Baba is cut into pieces! - Great!
Good riddance of misfortune! l'm unchallenged!
Sir, it is true that Baba is dead! But we didn't kill him!
Not you? - No!
When we went Baba was found cut into pieces.- ls it?
Who would've done it? Let it be anyone!
We wanted to get rid of him and got rid of him!
We must be celebrating, why are you feeling sad?
We're worried about you sir.
You're the only enemy Baba has in Shiridi!
lf people inquire who would've done it,
you'd be their first suspect!
l'm sure entire village would come with weapons!
l'm sure they'll haul us! - l'm sure police would come.
l'm sure you'd be hanged! - l'm sure madam would become a widow.
Stop it boys!
Throw the weapons somewhere if you don't people to suspect me.
No more knives!
We got scared and threw into well! - Donkeys!
What should we do now?
Did anyone see you going to Baba's mosque?
Nanavali saw us!
Come!
Sai is everywhere... - He's coming!
What are you doing at this hour?
We're answering calls of nature. lt has no time!
Why are they with you?
Ghosts roam at night, right?
We're taking demons to keep them off.
No, we'll control it for tonight. Come boys!
We got the mad man!
He himself doesn't know what he does!
Fools! Make people believe that he killed Baba.
l'll give whatever you ask!
They've hacked Baba! - They've killed Baba!
They've hacked Baba!
What have you done, Nanavali! - Don't feel sad. Let's take him to task.
Okay...okay... - l'm telling you to calm down.
How am to see you hacked to pieces? - l can't see it!
Please blindfold me! - How can you see then?
l'll touch with hands and see! Roll it!
l can't see! - Please open your eyes and see!
l'm Nanavali asking you to see!
How did he get down without a ladder? - Steps are there for him in air!
Hail Sai Baba!
Are you worried that your wish hasn't come true?
At least now open your eyes!
Fools! You said Baba was hacked into pieces!
Fool! Baba is great Sage amongst sages!
Great Yogi amongst Yogis!
Great Guru of Gurus!
Great saint amongst saints!
Baba knows 'Khandayoga' which very few in this world know.
He can dismantle parts of the body! Rejoin it again!
That happened last night!
l'm confused! What's this dismantling and rejoining?
lf we're hungry, we can eat food to satiate it.
lf we're sick, we can take medicine to get well.
Enmity in one's heart can be wiped with love!
Didn't you get me?
Come, let's go before anything happens.
No use anymore. We must see the end of Baba.
Stop saying how or else the dog will bite you! Let's go!
Not this side, go that side.
l'm tired shedding crocodile tears there.
l'm terribly hungry, make hot chapattis for me.
Chapattis? Hot chapattis? Look there!
Why is the house shabby like a shandy?
You brought horses and camels where children should be playing!
l told you camel is hearing us. - You brushed it aside.
We advised against hurting Baba. lt has taken revenge.
Let's buy a big elephant this time.
Either it'll keep its trunk or bow to madam.
l'll kill you, fools!
All the money is lost to feed horse and camel.
lf you buy an elephant, to feed it your boss may sell me also.
Were you using this brick as pillow all these days, Baba?
Had you asked us, we would've brought silk cotton pillow, right?
What's that blood mark on the brick?
This is not a brick, it's my life!
lt is drenched with the blood of my Guru Venkusa!
Blood of your Guru? How?
l and few others were disciples of my Guru!
Feeling l was more dedicated and intelligent than others,
he took personal interest to impart knowledge to me.
He used to take special care day and night!
Taught me the essence of holy Upanishads, secrets of Vedas,
and kernel of holy scripts,
Unable to bear this, a disciple tried to hit me with brick.
Son!
Guru!
Son, don't feel sad for me.
This is not an ordinary brick. lt is drenched with my blood.
From now, this is your life!
lf this brick is broken, it means you're no more!
Take it!
May God bless you long life!
lf this brick is broken, it means l'm no more!
Please forgive me, Baba.
lt happened while arranging your bed. What if anything had happened to you!
lt was not your mistake.
God sends signals like this.
What is the signal for, Baba?
lf anything happens to you, can we bear it, Baba?
Not just we, millions of your devotees' hearts would stop.
Don't worry, nothing has happened yet, right?
Hereafter keep an eye on the brick while cleaning the bed.
You said this is your life, you're our life!
We'll take care of it more than our lives!
God is one! He'll take care of everything!
Move...move... - Go fast!
Stop...stop...
l feel your face is familiar!
Your name is some Bhutia or Ghutia, right?
lt's long time my mother camel and son horse are dead.
but these donkeys are still with you!
What's this new vehicle?
Lost faith in animals.
So, trusting us, he bought this vehicle.
They're drowning you! - Did we?
You've lost mind not cough.
lt's your boss who has lost his mind.
You're paying him for pulling the rickshaw,
you're paying them for riding on it.
Do you know what l would've done? - What would you've done?
l would've fired him and made these two fools to pull it,
l would've saved his salary! - Can't l do that?
Hey you're fired! You pull the rickshaw!
Now it is fine, pull it boys! - Pull the rickshaw!
Call Mhalsapathi and others immediately.
Why did you call us urgently, Baba?
What happened, Baba?
l got a call from God!
Are you testing us, Baba?
How can God call you, Baba? You're a God, right?
l'm just God's representative!
l'll come back in 3 days!
Will you come back in 3 days?
Did it ever happen in history?
Baba, don't say anything to leave our hearts ceased.
Yesterday you talked about some signal,
now you say you'll meet God and come back in 3 days.
How is it possible?
Though my soul goes, my earthly body stays here only!
Look after my body safely.
Baba, we can't understand what you're saying!
Time is running out, listen carefully.
For 3 days my heart will cease, my pulse would stop.
l'll not breathe!
lf God doesn't permit me to come back.
Please don't say like that, Baba. We're orphans without you.
Your path is our way! We'll also give up life for you!
We will!
You're wrong! Don't talk like that.
God send every life with a decided lifespan!
lf l don't come back,
dig a grave there and bury my body!
Put saffron flag for Hindus and green flag for Muslims on my grave.
You're travelling outside,
many incidents are happening in our place.- What is it?
Good news for you. - What?
Baba is dead and gone. - Dead?
Then, distribute sweets to everyone.
But it seems he'll come back.
How can the dead come back, you fool!
lt seems Baba himself has told that he'd come back in 3 days.
People are waiting with the corpse.
Then, we must inform this to the Collector.
Don't know what you tell him or how,
but people are singing devotional songs keeping the body.
Sai means mother...
Baba means father...
Without Sai Baba...
We've become orphans without mother and father...
We've become wingless birds...
With the hope that you'd come back...
With the hope that you'd come back alive...
We're like stars eagerly waiting for moon...
We've become drops of tears...
Who would teach us... Who would share our sorrows...
Who would show divine ploys... Who would play marbles with us...
Who would sing with us... Who would correct our mistakes...
Who would gently point us out... Who would share love later...
Sai,...
you give us life, have you gone lifeless yourself?
We'll not rest till you come back...
Sacred ash you gave us, we'll apply it to you...
Wake up Sai...
We'll wake you up with the stick you carry...
Wake up Baba...
Till now you begged and took our pain...
Today we're begging to give back your life as alms...
We can't wait till it is given...
We'll not keep quiet till you come back...
We'll not have a drop of water too...
Check if Sai Baba is dead or alive.
No...no...Baba promised to come back in 72 hours.
That time hasn't elapsed yet.
Baba isn't back in 71 hours and 45 minutes.
Can he come back alive in 15 minutes?
Dig a grave! Let's bury him!
Won't you honour our faith, Collector?
Won't you care about our beliefs?
Body will decay if you delay.
Plague is rampant everywhere.
No, if Baba says, it'll happen.
He's no ordinary man, he's a great soul! He'll definitely come.
We've faith, he'll definitely come.
Collector, if you listen to them, nobody would survive here.
Everyone would die with plague. Get the grave ready, fast!
Hail Great Guru Sainath!
A dead man coming back to life after 3 days in this world...
First time!
Understood it?
lt isn't anyone's mistake.
Time will clear doubts. lt'll give answers.
You may go now.
We'll take leave Baba.
lt's good if you do one thing. Go and fall at Baba's feet!
Massage his legs, if not you'll be buried in the grave.
l'll show you after getting into the vehicle.- Come.
How could Baba come back alive?
Don't say how? Dog will come after us!
lt has come! - Pull faster!
We're not connected to this.
Go...go...
Why are you beating us if dog chases you?
We can't... - lt caught us!
Guru!- My leg!...
Lift him!
Have you broken your leg?
Dog! - Lift me up!
Please bear it. - Fan me!
Take porridge.
Oh no, l hate to have porridge.
Then, think about Baba. You'll get well soon.
lf you talk about Baba, l'll throw this porridge on you!
That's why you got hurt.
Please send some milk for us. We'll have it.
l'll kill you. You apply!
You fan! - You have it.
Where are you? Where are you, Sai?
Show up before me for the last glimpse...
Let my soul merge with you...
This is enough for this life...
Let me breathe my last in your lap...
Mother!
My mother died as l watched, how am l to live, Baba?
Life and death, born again, die again,
this is life! Understood it?
He's feeling orphaned, it's your responsibility to wipe his tears.
You've to feed him. - As you say Baba.
l'll take care of him like my son.
My damn fate l'm working with you.
White dog!
White fox! - White pig!
White pig! ls yours a life?
Big moustache and majestic walk!
l'll beat you with slippers.
l've brought homemade sweetmeats for you, sir.
ls it to see or eat? - To eat seeing.
What is this like a ball?
This is like a cycle wheel.
This is like a round table.
This is not a ball but 'Poornamu'! Earth!
This is not cycle wheel but 'Garey' Lord Vishnu's discuss.
This is 'Bobbattu' not round table.
Begging faith!
Sir, it is mad faith!
With that mad faith people are worshipping a beggar as God.
Slaves who should be saluting us!
lt seems they're going after a fakir and visiting a mosque.
He's not an ordinary man, sir.
People are seeing Rama and Krishna in him for the past 20 odd years.
People are worshipping him!
How dare you talk to me in English!
People believe he's God!
l didn't speak in English, why did you slap me now?
Slapped for speaking Telugu which l can't understand
Aren't you hurt? - l'm Baba's devotee.
Baba accepts the hurt of his devotees.
When someone beat the horse Baba loves so dearly!
Mad faith!
Only an Englishman is great in the world!
We found the train, you're riding in it.
We found the airplane, you're flying in it.
We found telephone, you're talking nonsense for hours.
lndians intelligence is zero compared to Englishmen.
lf you're smart, can you tell me how could this jaggery get into this?
lt's a miracle!
You couldn't answer this and yet claim to be intelligent and we're foolish.
That's why some people think of you like this.
What do they think?
lf Baba decides, you'd go back as you had come.
Loose tongues like me think so. - What do you think?
That your flag would get ripped! You can't even use it as loin...
Loose tongues like me think so.
Then, l must keep an eye on Baba!
Hail Sai! You're Krishna and you're Rama...
Guests are coming.
Please come.
He's a freedom fighter fighting for lndia's independence.- l know.
'Freedom is my birth right' with that caption,
a man who is awakening lndia's conscience Balagangadhar Tilak.
Would l achieve in my aim, Baba?
Would our country get freedom?
lt will but not now!
ln near future a great man is about to come,
his name is Gandhi,
our country will get freedom because of him.
Our national flag will fly on Red Fort!
What my foot?
lt seems Baba has told Tilak that lndia will get freedom.
Freedom is my birth right...
Why do we need freedom, sir?
lt seems some freedom fighter visited Baba.
lt seems he talked about freedom.
lt seems that fakir too predicted lndia freedom.
That fakir is an extremist in the garb of a beggar.
l'll take his photo in black and white.
l'll prove if your Baba is black or white.
Come!
Baba, you appeared in my dream and permitting me to build a temple,
l consider it as my great fortune!
ln future lakhs of devotees would visit this temple.
They'll offer prayers and sing devotional songs every day!
This temple must be completed before Vijayadasami.
Vijayadasami? Very auspicious day!
Everyone's path is decided on the day of Dasami.
Please come, sir.
He's Baba!
Sir, let's take his permission. He's a living God!
Permission to us?
l mean we're the rulers!
Sir, but he's Lord of Lords.
Only Jesus is the God of this world!
Why are these heads coming in between?
To tell your head is filled with mud.
May be they're here to tell not to take photo without his permission.
We'll take. - Go ahead!
Take and develop it. - Then see it!
What would l get? - May be it'll give a shock.
lt's done!
Why are you shouting?
l'm feeling giddy seeing the photo you'd taken.
Don't know how you'd feel!
Don't go on say my foot, that's why, Baba's holy feet are in your hands.
People shake hands in your country, we prostrate at feet,
so stop saying my foot and fall at Baba's feet!
There's some magic in this.
Not magic sir, we've an episode about Vamana in our epics,
one foot on sky, one foot on earth,
a foot on your head!
History about God's feet is not ordinary in this country.
Even great saints are liberated by the lotus feet of Vishnu....
Untouched by bonds and ties... shining as the universe...
Holiest of all feet is Vishnu's feet...
Holy feet of the supreme lord...
Vamana's holy feet scaled the earth, sky and heaven...
Lord Shiva holy feet gave birth to ever flowing Ganges...
Holy feet of Lord Rama created a society of love and brotherhood...
These holy feet are the lights of all directions...
Holy feet are the epitome of mercy...
Seek refuge in holy feet of Vishnu...
Seek refuse in holy feet of Rama...
Seek refuge in holy feet of Krishna...
Seek refuse in holy feet of Sri Sai...
Holy feet that protect the good from demon...
Holy feet that little Krishna danced on the hood of giant snake Kalindi...
Holy feet that took on Kamsa and others to protect Yadavas...
Holy feet of the Trinity...
The corner stone feet of all Gods...
Baba, please forgive us. - Allah will forgive you!
He's Lord Wales, British Empire representative.
He took your photo without your permission,
all he got was the full size of your feet,
May be these feet would become beacon of future!
Those feet mean people who follow right path have good future.
l warned him not take photo without Baba's permission.
At least now take his permission and take his photo.
Are you worried that Baba is speaking in English?
l must take Baba's photo and send it to high command.
You fool!
What happened? ls it feet again? - No Lord!
Baba's full size image is looking bright!
l committed sins saying my foot!
l want to touch your holy feet once!
You're Rama, you're Krishna, you're Allah, and you're Jesus!
Get up!
For giving me the permission to photograph you,
please ask me anything if l can do for you.
Make copies of this photo and distribute it to everyone in Shiridi.
When you're with us, do we need your photo, Baba?
Where ever l may be, you'd see me.
l too must see you, right?
No need to come to Shiridi to have a glimpse of me.
ln which ever home has my photo, l'm there only! Okay!
Hail Sainath!
How long do l've to go through this? - Please bear it sir.
Please listen to me and bow before Baba's photo.
Your leg pain will ease.
l'm unable to get up, how can l walk to you?
Have faith in Baba! Pray devotedly!
lf you're sincere in your prayers, Baba will shower his mercy!
Baba, please forgive all my mistakes!
Bhatia, give me two rupees.
l'll give everything to temple, why just Rs.2, Baba?
l asked your ego and your ignorance!
ls that why you see Rs.2 from everyone?
lf you're not dedicated, l'll take devotion and prayers.
From another person, l'll take jealous and hatred.
From few people l'll take desire and anger.
Baba, consider us also as a rupee... - Take our egos!
Remove ego form hearts and live as humans.- Okay Baba.
Temple is very good. - lt's also your grace, Baba.
ldol of Krishna too is getting ready.
Make a beautiful pedestal there to install the idol.- Okay Baba.
No need for Shiva but Krishna loves decorations.
What?
lf you permit me, l'll all over the country to spread your message.
As you please! Start now!
What is it, Baba?
l felt like seeing you once again!
What's this? What happened? What happened to you?
For God's sake please don't tell this to Baba.
lf he knows, he may not bear it. Baba won't bear it.
Tatya told you not to tell me a thing, right?
Don't worry. Nothing will happen to Tatya.
lt's not just bond between us, he's my responsibility too.
His mother, my sister Bhaija Bai.
Where ever l may be, she used to come with food to feed me.
l must repay her gratitude, right?
l'll save his life with mine.
lt is broken!
Please forgive me, Baba! l didn't do it wantonly.
lt's not your mistake.
One has become two!
Body and soul are different, right?
Baba, don't say like that. Abdullah broke it by mistake.
lt isn't Abdullah's work but God's!
As fire is burning here is true, so is body getting cremated.
There are nine ways of devotion in this world.
You're devoted to me in all the ways.
As remembrance of it, please keep these 9 coins.
When you're not there anymore, why do l need these coins?
No...
l'm cured of my disease! l'm cured!
Don't do this sacrifice, Baba!
You're trying to give your life to save mine.
l'm one among crore but you're God who graces a crore people.
Don't sacrifice your life for me and go away from us.
Don't go away!
l told you ours is bond of many births!
The bond has snapped!
Please don't test us again.
Would that God take away this God?
Can't avoid it.
When God calls,
one must reach his lap!
Please don't say like that, Baba.
l'm Nanavali saying we'll not let you go away.
lf necessary, l'll stop the moving time!
l'll stand against God and save your life.
l'm leaving the body but not this incarnation.
After l depart,
Shiridi must become a holy place granting boons to its devotees.
Like rivers flowing to join the sea,
people of all religions must join as one in Shiridi.
God is one!
l want to see Das!
Send him message.
lf they say wind is standing still, should l've to believe it?
lf they say earth is melting down, should l've to believe it?
lf they say sky's lifespan is over, should l've to believe it?
lf they God will die, should l've to believe it?
That will not happen... l'll not let it happen...
Coming...l'm coming Baba...
l'm coming to stop the approaching death...
l'm coming to sacrifice my life to save yours...
How are we to live without seeing you or without you?
How are we to bear this harsh truth?
Who would share our pain and sorrows?
You're my devotees...
l'm a slave of your devotion...
l'm the sun, moon and stars...
l'll always be seen by you...
l'll always keep an eye on you...
l'm your Baba, l'll carry your burden...
From my grave... l'll answer from my grave...
lf you seek help, l'll come to you...
lf you call, l'll answer you...
... l'll answer you...
You said your devotees won't lack in anything.
But we don't have light. We don't have shade!
Our lives have no meaning at all!
How are we to fill the void of your absence, Baba?
With a clear peaceful mind...
With unwavering devotion...
Think of me...
l'll preside in your hearts...
Chant my name...
l'll vanish your sorrows...
Join the prayers of my Arathi...
l'll stall dangers in your life...
Apply my sacred ash...
l'll take your pain...
Light lamps for me...
l'll light up your lives...
Read my life story...
l'll make your life blessed one...
This is not death bed... For refuge seekers it is bed of mercy...
This is not a grave but holy temple that will ease your difficulties...
Treasure house of my divine grace...
Shiridi which grants boons of peace and happiness...
