Behind the veil I wear is a a woman of great qualities
My love, the darkness of the night is lifting
My love has not appeared in every limb of mine
My stubborn sweetheart has not come yet
I feel the pain of my longing for you, beloved
What happened? - I sprained my foot
Is that so?
What's the matter? - She's sprained her foot
Are there any solo shots of madam?
Not solo. They are all combined shots
We'll have to pack up - You're right
Okay pack up
Usha, your car has not come yet?
Come I'll drop you home. Let's go
Sushma, how come you're still at home? - Yes
Why did you come so late?
Who came to drop you off?
Didn't you see from the terrace?
I saw that's why I'm asking you
You've any other affair other than the one with that film director?
How many times should I ask you not to mention that topic?
Why do you keep digging the wound... - Spare me the film dialogues
That time I brought you home I won't do it again
Then why didn't you let me die?
Why did you bring me back? - It was my mistake
You needed my income, isn't that why?
Is it true that you've a separate bank account?
And you've signed a new contract too without asking me?
What then? Should I've given you all the money to gamble?
Don't I have to think about others? A little about myself?
Who asked you to bring the tea? Come on get going
You always insist that it's you who provides for the household, right?
I helped you to become an actress I made your career
After your father's death, you and your family would have starved
I provided for them. I put the food on their table
Oh yeah? Even now is it you who feeds us? Talk about it!
Sushma, take off that record now
Why should she? Who are you to stop her?
Looks like you're again thinking of an excuse to leave home
Let's see. Go if you want You'll come snivelling back
Father, what's it with mother... - Shut up
This is her usual drama
Go to your room
Mom, are you really leaving?
Sushma -Why are you calling her?
She is coming with me
Sushma is my daughter -Oh really?
Then take her if you want Make her like yourself
That'll be real nice
She'll rot in other people's home all her life
Using Sushma's name to torment me - Is my old ruse, eh?
Usha?
Usha
Usha? Usha?
No! Leave it off
I'm cooking it for Masterji, nor for ourselves
Did you hear that?
In this way ragas like Basant and Purnayagnashri should be handled
They have to be sung a little differently
This is raga Ritu Yagnashri A little high pitch
These things can be explained only in Neelambri
They may sound same to plain ears
Master Khan, please begin your lunch
Madam Shanta, the food is really delicious. Truly matchless
The refinements of your singing are reflected in her cooking
Great, very nice indeed
Usha, where are you off to? Have your lunch first
That's enough -Now you say that, What will you do in old age?
Why will I get old? - You don't know,
these melodies actually keep us from going crazy in old age
Usha, in your end days, this talent will be of some use
Usha, come here -Yes, dad
Come here
You've shied away from your music lesson, huh?
Yes -Why?
Usha? Usha?
Go... your mother is calling you
In mornings it's the music lesson and then the whole day she is out
She doesn't help me a bit in the house work
If you keep singing, you'll end up like your grandma
Nobody will even marry you
Learn some house work and a decent man may marry you
Go and get some rice from the Keshav's place. C'mon hurry
Keshav Uncle? Keshav Uncle
Gottcha, you thieving brat
Mother has asked for some rice
Tell me first, will you marry me?
I won't, I won't - So you won't, eh?
Say you will, say you will - Okay, I will
Would you swear to it?
I will, first let go of my hand - That I won't
So tell me, how's your mother doing?
You did come home yesterday, and were whispering to her, right?
You're getting to be cheeky Oh dear!
I won't ever speak to you again
Hey! You've fallen down! Didn't I tell you
Come on get up, c'mon get up It's nothing
Now keep quiet will ya? - Why should I be quiet?
I'll give you a slap
I'll tell dad that you've beaten me
Take this quarter, buy yourself some sweets
Keep quiet. Listen, walk slowly and don't show that you're hurt
Or I'll take back the money
Come on, keep quiet
What's the matter with him?
He is lying drunk since morning
Soon we won't have anything to eat
Why do you worry. I am here, ain't I?
Don't touch me like this
Hey Usha, know what? I was just telling your mother,
that you sing so well everyday, but never sang to me, huh?
I won't
When we marry, I'll make you sing everyday
I won't marry with you either
No manners when you address your elders. Why don't you sing?
My foot -What did you say?
Hey, Veni, she is only a child, let her be
What are you doing? Have you lost your senses?
Don't you interrupt - Listen to me, Veni
You won't sing, eh! - What's going on?
I say, what's happening? Come my child
Tell me what is it
Papa, mama beat me - Is it? Why?
Because I didn't sing for him
You raised your hand on this child...
only because she didn't sing for him!
Is my daughter his servant or a slave, speak up
Must she sing and dance for his pleasure?
I won't spare you... - Please control yourself
I will teach her a lesson today
Sir, all this doesn't befit you
Get away. You're forgetting your place
She's my wife
You wretched woman!
Where did you go? - To see granny
Why? - To check if or not she had died
Have you lost your tongue!
You know, that owl is constantly making noises -Quiet. Sleep
Come, come, come
Usha
Usha, come
Usha, come pay your last respects to your father
They need girls for cinema, what's wrong in trying?
You won't understand, Keshav
You don't know how people look down on our family
Amongst our caste I was the first lucky one to get married
And that too to a Brahmin husband
To have to listen to the same taunts! I'd rather die
But, Veni...
Usha is yet just a child
Even if she gets work in a theatre, she can quit after 2-3 years,
but till then, the family will have some support
Besides she is not old enough to marry
She can only marry after a few years, but in the meantime...
Granny why don't you talk sense into her?
Shanta, we got mouths to feed, don't we?
Mother, I've always quarreled with you
I've never wished my daughter to be a stage girl
All right, do as you wish
Make her a cinema-girl
What doesn't one have to do for livelihood!
Where can we meet the producer? - Which producer?
You know, Mr. Harilal - Oh yeah, he would be there
No man, no. A laugh as weak as that won't even scare a mouse
Laugh in such a way that it gives goose pimples to the audience
Come on, let's hear you do it again
Come on in, c'mon
Till now, nobody has insulted me and lived!
You'll burn to ashes No one dare insult me
Yes, good good. Keep it up like that only. Okay
Madam, are you ready for the shot
You need not worry about me - Okay
Is the shot ready? - Yes, sir
Lower the crane down a bit
Is the shot ready for take? - Yes, sir -Okay
Camera
42/5 Take 2 Shoot one
Action
Princess, you don't recongize that strength of a demon?
You don't know what my anger could do?
From my fire-place no princess has escaped alive
I'll burn your beauty to ashes
Fire!
Will you still defy me? Won't you still yield to my desire?
Insult! I protect my chastity and you call that an insult?
One who dares insult all women talk of insult!
Don't you be under the veil of false impression
My father will seek you out from the ends of the earth
He will punish you so hard that you will remember for life
Listen carefully, how she speaks her lines with conviction
One can achieve this perfection only after a lot of practice
Who is talking in the studio?
In these circumstances how can one act?
Who allows such useless persons in the studio?
Have them thrown out -Cut
Oh damn, why have you all come in? C'mon, get going. Out with you
God knows where such people come from!
Mr. Producer wants to meet you - Who, sir
The Producer -C'mon, let's go Hurry
Oh, Rajnibala, please come Have a seat
Should we start - Begin, my child
I travelled for three hundred miles to get you here
Now she's gone and ruined it all
What do I stand to gain? I just wished for the benefit of you all
You should have sung a little better
Before the drummer can give a beaat, she starts off
She thinks herself to be a great artiste. Stupid girl
Now, after this I ain't going to try for you no further
Granny has taken such efforts to teach you classical music
Today you've disappointed her too
Now let's go back to our rotten village
...and continue singing devotional songs in the temple
Now let her be, Keshav Don't pester anymore
Baby, why're you sulking? You've been selected
Hey at least pay her your respects
Come on, driver
We've reached, madam
Huh! Turn back
Is Mr. Rajan in? - He should be on his way from the club
Why pierce me with a sword beloved, when just your looks will be enough
I'll be at your feet in no time
Cut
You look like a joker. He's making a fool of you
He looks crazy like a romeo - Isn't it!
Brother!
Scene 54, Shot 3 Take 5 Action
The world moves at my command, but at my one order it will move at yours
A sign from me and the world will spin for you
Accept my love, Usha, I will... - Hey, not "Usha"
What's wrong? - Cut, Cut
You ought to have been saying Jahanara instead of "Usha"
Love has made Ghalib useless, or even Mr. Rajan was terrific
I don't seem to like anything, my sweetheart
Since I have laid my eyes on you
Without you, I don't like being in the house
You've totally changed me Your one look has changed me
Hey, it's you!
Yes, I came by the 2 o'clock train
Won't you introduce me to Rajan?
Pleased to meet you Mr... - Dalvi
Dalvi -Keshav Dalvi
She is Basundi -Oh yeah
Could you two excuse us for a little while -Sure
As it is I was about to leave Okay see you
How is granny? - So what I heard is true
What's true? - About your affair with Rajan
It's a lie -There has been news and even the photos in newspaper
That's only a promotional photo of the film
Despite being my fiance weren't you ashamed to do all this?
Fiance! - Why, have you forgotten your promise of marriage?
Why don't you speak up? - But...
What "But"?
Or else am I mad to run around you guys?
Over there your granny's days are almost numbered
I have been looking after your parents like anything
And you... you've been enjoying yourself here!
What's wrong with granny?
Tell me right now if you want to break your promise
And then it's over between us You all my starve for all I care
Grandma? Mom
Hey, Usha! What a surprise!
Just hold on, wait
How weak you have become!
Here
I'm better. They had given up all hope
Keshav has taken good care of me He is a fine person
You have come! - Mother, how are you?
Would you come here
Did Keshav come to meet you there? - Yes, Why?
It's you! - Yes. Why didn't you wait for me at the station?
I thought you had been delayed somewhere
I felt you may have been held up - I indeed was. For your sake
Why? - Your photographs appear everywhere
I just go on collecting them
Oh, why this photograph? - Then see this one
No, even this isn't nice
Usha? - Coming, granny
No, it isn't nice
Yeah, listen to this. After long has an actress appeared on the screen,
...who has... the sweetness of whose voice,
...and her character seem to complement each other
So much for the stories doing rounds in newspapers
You know, granny, it's so crowded where the film is playing
Really? - The mob is falling over itself just to see you
And you know when you sing, the audience is just in raptures
Which song? - You know, That one...
Come, coming along to the theatre with me?
Shall we? - Let's go
I mean, but you've just arrived and... - And so what?
You have returned
I don't approve your hanging around with Keshav
Why?
He's much older than you He hasn't got a steady job either
And besides he is of a different caste
In all the times he helped us, you said nothing
Leela, Leela, listen to me Promise first that you won't go
What are you saying? Dad has even sent the fees
I'm just going to Delhi not abroad anywhere
Then take me along - not now, Leela
Let me look for a job first Then I'd bring many things
But before that I would be... - What? What's it, Leela
How should I say it?
If we don't marry soon, I won't be able to show my face
Don't cry, I'll try to return soon
Mohan? Where's Mohan? Call him, it's time for the train
I'm leaving. Please do wait for me
Oh! Mohan, Mohan?
Sister, if there's a girl who is not married
And if she... - And if what?
And if she's preg... I'm disgraced Strangle me if you wish
Leela, please don't Tell me it's not true
Please forgive me, elder sister
Oh dear sis, what have you done?
Why live to face a day like this? Does Mohan know?
I will call him just now - he left today
He has left?! I hope he won't let you down, will he?
No sis, he isn't like that - You just can't trust men
Many a men have cheated thus I mean, just look at Mr. Shekhar
I used to worship him and he...
Why did you go with him? Didn't I forbid you
Why don't you speak up?
Now that you've started earning, you think you're something, eh?
You can do as you wish, huh? - Yes
Is this my fate? Firstly you father drinking made me miserable
And now I've to see you turn into a whore? - Mother!
I just don't want to listen to you I ain't a child, am I?
I see, now you won't even listen to me!
You will at least listen to God, won't you. Come with me, come
Come and promise in front of God
Take an oath before God otherwise it won't be good
Don't interfere today
It's your pampering that has made her so
Take an oath that hereafter you'll never meet Keshav
I take an oath
Usha, you shouldn't argue with your mother
She has undergone a lot of hardships
As it is, people point their fingers at our family
Hey, what is it? What's the matter, Usha
Let's go in, Usha. Come
Now tell me, what is it
Why does she bother me so? - Who
Mother -What happened?
Mom thinks that whatever I do is wrong
Don't do this, don't do that. Don't meet him, don't talk to him
You shouldn't be saying like this - Am I a child, tell me
It's okay, all will be well
Trust me, it's okay Look, listen to me
lt'll be all okay
You said you would marry me
We will get married
I won't work no more
I'll leave this film business forever
But Mrs. Shanta...
Ready? Should we do the take now? - Yeah, Okay
Shall I start the song from the same cue?
Full lights
Take it a little closer
C'mon move. Make way
Have you seen Ms. Usha's dance?
Please wait, hold on. Please stop
I would like to give some good news
Here is the man who will be my husband
Mr. Hariram, not him. That...
Welcome, welcome, Mr. Dalvi - It's Dadvi
Yeah, whatever. Please come here
Friends, I'd like to announce a good news
Very soon now, our heroine will assume the duties of a housewife
And perhaps start giving Mr. Dalvi a tough time at home
"Without you, I've no desire for my home, beloved
"After I've laid my eyes on you, my sweetheart"
Ms. Usha, what're you doing? Cut, cut
You've forgotten your pose, despite rehearsing so often
But you know... - It was such a simple pose
Watch me do it
Please stop the music
I'll show you the pose
This is how it has to be done, followed? - All right
Okay, okay, let's start
I was transformed when I first saw you
My beloved, when you saw me the first time
Usha, what are people gossiping about?
Is it true that you won't be acting in films anymore?
Yes -But what's the problem, that you...
...that you have no intention of continuing acting?
Is it the films in general or you object to acting with Rajan?
Both
Aren't you ashamed to say this?
What's wrong in coming out with the truth?
You won't marry Keshav while I'm alive
Then the baby in my womb will have no father
The boat of my life has just the support of your love
Does he accept? - Yes
Is he prepared to marry you? - Yes, granny
You took an oath before God - No, You forced me
You will never have God's blessings - Shanta, Please
Don't curse your children so
Usha dear, c'mon touch your mother's feet
We'll have our own lovely house one day,
in which the whole family can live in peace
Usha? - Yes
That producer says you refused to work for him in the next film
Yes. When the baby is born, work at home will increase
Yeah, true... but,
My business is not settled and we have mother and granny as dependants
The producer says that he'll try to complete the film very soon
But... - Don't you worry at all
I've promised him that we'll do the film,
...but Rajan won't be in the film at any cost
Have you two quarreled again?
Why does this have to happen with you?
Had I known the answer to this "WHY",
...I wouldn't have had to leave home forever
Forever?! - Okay look, have your dinner first
In the meantime John will prepare your room
By staying here overnight his doubts will be confirmed
How can any man leave a woman like you?
I fail to grasp this point
Because your senses have gone to graze
Usha, if you've decided to leave home, why not divorce him?
I will wait for you
You'll regret it later - I'll take that risk
You're the only one who has always given me something, taken nothing
Should I lose you too? No
Shall I accompany you to your room?
Good evening, madam
Please come
This is your sitting room Please come
Here. This is your bedroom
Thank you
No, Satyavan. I will not let you go
Even if God of death himself were to descend,
I'll beg and plead with him to let you come back to me
Satyavan, rise. Your time is over
God, please don't be so cruel No, you can't be
If you can't do me any good,
...you cannot snatch away my right to burn with my husband
No, oh God. Do not let me go on with my life. It'll be a disgrace
Oh God, please have mercy Have mercy
This is your fate, Savitri It's beyond my powers
Satyavan, rise. Come along with me
No, oh God. I won't let you take away Satyavan
No, no. Satyavan?
MERA MUNNA (MY CHILD)
BADNASIB (UNFORTUNATE)
HAMLA (ATTACK)
Take me to Ms. Champa
Hey Ms. Champa The business man has come
Sir, meet Ms. Champa - Hey, Ms. Champa
She beats
You two-piece whore, playing innocent? I'll pull out your eyes
You may pierce my eyes and pull out my tongue,
...break my bones if you wish, but I won't give up my honour
Honour ain't going to feed you, nor pay your rent
KHAND AAN (FAMILY)
Goddess Sita proved her chastity by giving the fire-test
But how can I, would you tell me Have I any such resource
What fire-test should I give?
Me Lord, how can I prove my innocence?
If you cannot provide for any fire-test like Goddess Sita,
...then I request I be given a bowl of poison like devoted Mira
Only then true justice be granted to a loyal and faithful wife
Is that okay? - Cut
Well done. This scene comes out really good
Yes, ma'am. It was superb
It has all the under acting of Bengali Cinema
Okay then, I should be leaving - What time would You be coming?
Where? - To the party
Mr. Harilal, I won't be able to attend the party
I've promised an evening out to my daughter Sushma
But Mr. Dalvi had agreed It was decided...
We are announcing a new film to the press
I see you haven't yet dressed
You have no consideration of time
Ms. Shanta, take Sushma in and... No, I won't
I'll go with mother
Don't misbehave. Mother has got to be at the party
You sit with grandma -Okay, c'mon be quiet
Hurry up. Get dressed -Okay dear, I won't go
Didn't you hear me? - You may go I'll stay with her
Press has to be announced of the new film that you're doing with Rajan
With Rajan?!
So Mr. Producer, how's your studio?
The days of the Studios are over Now it's the time for stars
How Hollywood is running its cinemas and distribution
They turn out films as fast as their cars
Please help yourself Have some drinks
Please excuse me Our Heroine has come
Welcome, welcome Good evening, Mr. Harilal
Come on, take a picture
So, tell me Mr. Dalvi It's Dadvi
Oh damn! Your husband really gives me a hard time
Meet Mrs. Agassi, Mr. Agassi, Mr. Sharma
Where is... your film's hero?
Um... he should be here somewhere in one of his styles
Usha, congratulations - Why to me? It ought be to him
His business down and he raises my price with each film
Hey Mr. Rajan, why're you standing at such a distance? Please join us
Rajan is now such a big star But he hasn't changed a bit
Know something, Usha?
In this new film, you two'll come out as a perfect romantic pair
How do you do? - How are you?
May I have this dance?
If you don't mind -Well...
Have you vowed not to open your mouth?
You haven't married?
No
But... is there any reason behind this?
You
Ladies and Gentlemen, dinner is served
Please take your feast
Please come
Mr. Dalvi, sometimes at least leave your wife alone
Please come, Ms. Usha
When I haven't done anything, what should I tell you?
Why can't you look me in the face and say that?
Look here
You wish to beat me? Then do so Beat me
Why don't you?
I signed Rajan with you but your affairs can't be forgotten
Swear -I won't
Will you take an oath? - I won't
Mother, mother - Sushma, go inside
Shantabai, take her inside
Come inside with me
Will you take an oath? - Let me go, leave me
All right I will
I take an oath...
...that I'll do exactly as I please
You! At this hour of the night?
You know he didn't even inform me of my granny's death
I was shooting then He needed money badly
I couldn't even see her for the last time
Usha, there must have been some problem
And what when he wanted to seduce my mother too?
Usha, what are you doing - the beginning
Usha, don't be silly. Leave it off Leave it
Come along, I'll leave you home
I've come to your house. You were full of love for me at the party
What, have you sobered off now?
You merely want to take it out on Mr. Dehlvi
And you surely want an excuse to escape
You tremble at the thought of responsibility
I am leaving
Hi, I just called to ask whether or not you've been able to sleep
If not, drink chocolate milk You'll be able to sleep
Oh, Rajan!
Today the stars have cast their light
Like the edge of the skies lit by a glance from your eyes
My love, why don't you take me, ravish me?
I'll make you pay
The penalty doubled, I'll make you pay
Cut. Beautiful, madam. Beautiful!
Come on, prepare for the next shot Hold your hands, and form a chain
Lift the camera off the crane, and place it here
Mr. Dalvi phoned that you must return home
Rajan, there has to be a difference between a home and a prison-home
Then what's your objection to staying at my place?
You wouldn't understand. Neither would I be able to explain
You've decided to spend your life then at that crap hotel, have you?
Rajan, tell me one thing...
...one should feel suffocated at own home, right?
The wife ought to be respected, ain't she?
It may sound weird,
...but I wish to be a housewife in true sense of the word
Primeminister Nehru clarified India's position, about Kashmir
Here's the full story
Good evening, madam. A gentleman has been waiting for you at the lobby
Tell him, I haven't returned from the shooting
Why're you staring in my face Go tell him
Madam, that gentleman has left this note for you
Usha, there are so much that I wish to explain to you, but...
May I please come inside and listen to this song?
Yeah sure, of course
But it's just me and Mr. Kale I hope if don't object to that...
You are Ms. Urvashi, right? I admire your work
Please come. Vinayak, have you met her?
She's Ms. Urvashi -Hello
She'd like to hear the record which is playing
Yeah sure. Please have a seat
Would you take tea?
My friend Suthar, I didn't quite like your suggestion
I don't like going in export Price of Manganese is dropping
Never mind -Prices are down anyway, I'll let the mine on loss
Then you'd rather become a saint
As it is you don't go home much
Would you like to have any cold drink?
Have something at least
How about we play Pankaj Mullick?
Is it? Okay
May I hear that song again? It's sung by my grandmother
You'll have to wait a little
My friend wishes to hear Pankaj Mullick
What is there to hear in Pankaj Mullick?
We're not discussing the fine points of music here
I'll play what my friend desires to listen
Forget it, man. Such a great actress has come to our room
We ought to be gracious to our guest
Well? Would you please play it now?
A guest has no right to impose his or her decision on the host
Even though she may be a great actress then
Had I not been an actress, perhaps you wouldn't have talked this way
It seems as if some people enjoy looking down on actresses
Some people maybe, but not me
There are such things as principles
You look exhausted
Usha, you got my letter I hope?
Please return home
You said I'd come back crawling
One may say anything in anger
Sunil had come
He was urging me for you to act in his film
He seemed to be in a very bad state He's lost all his splendour
I refused him outright
You're tired now Have some rest and...
Happy Holi, happy holi
That's enough, you shouldn't be playing holi with old people
Mr. Harilal, come. We'll put colour on him as well
Don't ever do that. He'll get angry
Why? - He doesn't like anyone to put colour on him
His daughter had died on this very day
I very well know that you don't like playing with colors
I know how well to play Holi. I'll show you how they do it back home
You like to play Holi, don't you? I'll teach you
No please, not in water Don't throw me in water
No, something has to be done about you -Not in water
Should I let you in on a secret? - Yeah Please
It's true, my daughter died 5 years ago, but not on Holi day
I just let it spread as rumour to keep people at bay
You used your daughter's death as an excuse?
What else? In this country nobody uses brains, just their heart
They can't accept anything unless it's emotional
It's a nice day. No shooting Let's go out somewhere
It is our habit to neglect the reality around us
We'll keep repeating things about our past
As if that weren't enough, we take refuge in faith and re-birth
Don't you believe in all this?
It's all created to avoid reality
The fact remains that we're born and we die for no reason at all
Like mere worms
There's no substantial difference between us and the worms
Then you don't see meaning in anything at all, is it?
Exactly. That's why we got to make our lives meaningful
And for that sometimes we see people even sacrificing their lives
We really had a close call on the road. God saved us
Even I don't prefer dying in an accident
When I die it'd be by suicide
But it won't be when I'm feeling low and depressed
I'll choose a time for suicide when I'm in peace
What's the matter? - A thorn, perhaps
I feel scared -Of what?
My daughter... - Not of that
You're frightened of destroying your own image that you've created
That of the great actress Madam Urvashi
You hate to see it shattered
The people who adore and admire you are like a mirror to you
And you're a reflection trapped in that. Happy too
You're afraid that...
some new experience might not ruin your entrapment
Do you wish to escape the new experiences,
...and spend your life in shadows?
Is that so?
The rainy days are here, my beloved Please come now
My unsettled mind upsets me, please come and meet me, my beloved
The rains arouse my longing for you do come, my beloved
I keep remembering you, O'beloved, come
Cut, that's okay
Stop the water
Reflectors up
Nice. That was good
Why are you so afraid of water?
If your costume gets wet, it'll give a better effect
For the next shot you'll be on that rock. A trolley will come from there
At that time Mohan'll come out from the tree and hold your right hand...
Okay ready. Give the cue
Okay Mohan. Mohan'll come from there and you...
Trolley
Hey there, stop the water What were you doing?
What is it? Aren't you feeling all right?
Usha, what happened. Can't you go on with the shooting?
I'll take her to the doctor - Don't fuss, I'm okay
Sunil, I'll be right back, alright?
Oh, so you've already started!
Mother?
You seem very happy today!
I heard you weren't feeling too well on the set
What a way to ask - But What Is it?
Mom, tell me too, please - Keep quiet
Prime Minister Nehru has encuraged country's industrial development
Here's the full bulletin
Marshall Joseph Stalin died yesterday
Your second child won't be raised in this house
What do you mean?
I ain't running an orphanage here to raise a bastard
But... but you very well know that this child is yours
Oh yeah?! - How can you...
Tomorrow itself I'll admit you to a nursing home
This IS your child I want this baby anyhow
Sushma is now grown up She understands things
Later if I were to say, this child ain't mine,
...what would she think of you? Have you thought about that? Answer me
Would you be able to live with it?
You are...
Usha, you know I am not too happy to do all this. I had to
I was helpless. Usha, you... - to hell with Usha
He forced it on me
I requested and pleaded, not to do it, not to do
"Don't do this to me, I've a baby in my womb"
Mr. And Mrs. Verma, please sign here
Keys? - Here, sir
Do you love me?
Why don't you answer me?
You know that I don't use silly words like "Love"
But, Usha, the depths at which you've penetrated my heart,
...at which you've captured my senses and thinking,
For that emotion... the word "Love" can be used
Should you wish, shall we look up for other words in dictionary?
Life being so short, why waste time on such useless things
When here I am, dying to embrace you into my arms
Why are you weaving a web of lies
In answer to your topsy-turvy questions
You had once spoken to me on the topic of "Suicide"
Have you the courage to stick by it?
Try it if you wish
At the hospital...
I thought of committing suicide as the way to freedom
I wish to die. Would you help me?
Do you wish to die with me? - Yes
Usha!
"One can only choose his death"
"Tell me, when, where and how do you prefer"
Now, here... - I mean, how?
I've brought along sleeping pills with me
Hmm... All right But what about your wife?
One's life does not cancel out with other's life
One has to bear with one's own solitude
Usha? Usha, why're you wearing a long face?
Look, what we're about to do, ought to be done with joy
Do you know the best form of death?
"By making love"
or "Just After Making Love"
Ready? It's your turn now Why couldn't we've done it together?
Because we're not the "Laila Majnu" category of lovers
You've viewed life only through rose-tinted glasses
But death... Usha, death is a rather personal matter
It must be faced alone
Or else it becomes meaningless like several other deaths
Did you feel scared?
But you overcame your fear, is a big thing
Okay Usha, goodbye
Would we meet after death?
Even at death-bed you need to lean on nursery fables?
This last farewell... this is the reality
After that is nothing
Goodbye
My forty tablets are in the right - hand drawer of the table
Return them to the chemist if you wish
With them are those pills too, the ones which you didn't take
With lots of love - Sunil
Who is it?
It's you!
I came to apologise - What? Oh, yeah
won't you please come in But this time, I'm alone
Please have a seat
If you play tricks with me,
I'll turn you int my ring
And while I bathe, the ring will touch my body
I'll tie you forever into the knot of my saree
I wish to foster the tradition of love
The punishment of love is,
...pleasure or pain
Without spices how good can any delicacy taste?
There's my son, Usha -Your son?
You never mentioned that
Driver, would you please pull over
I didn't ask you or should we say you didn't care to ask?
I want you to know that I'm a married man
My wife... is alive
She was paralysed immediately after child-birth
...and she has been bed-ridden since years
There's still time You may consider this over
If you wish to go back, the driver will drop you off
Now, right at this moment
Mother, this is Usha She'll stay here from now on
Please show her around the house
Vinayak is good in business and is punctual about his paper-work
But just lazy in writing to his mother
It's not just money that brings joy to homes,
...but with good family. Come
Vinayak travels a lot This is my daughter-in-law
Mother, a lady has come here with father
Vinayak's room is upstairs Please come
This is my room. Come
I hope you don't have a child of your own, is it?
A young man does feel the necessity of a woman,
...but it'd have been a problem if you'd had your own child
Have a seat
Does it mean, she'll always stay here?
You drink your milk and be off to bed
First tell me a story - You drink your milk
I won't if you don't tell me a story - Listen...
Tell me, from where can I bring a new story everyday?
Alright, I'll tell you a story but first you finish your milk
Story first -First milk
Story first - Story later, first milk
Story first - Alright. Have your milk
I said first tell me a story
Usha
I'll tell you the story tomorrow, now go to sleep
Come on, have your milk and sleep
I couldn't have thought of it, but mother ordered these sarees for you
In a few days, some other things will come from the town
And this... Open it
Put them on
You look pretty
Would you require anything else?
My back is broken and hurts badly
Constantly being on bed, my back is filled with sores
All there is for me to look at is this room and its roof
Even then death doesn't come to me
You have your son -True,
...that's why I don't have the strength to commit suicide
What are these for? - Wouldn't you aspire to be the lady of this house?
And your wife?
Even her welfare now is your responsibility. Isn't it so?
Where were you for so many days? Did you elope with someone
I got married -Is it?
How is he? - It's a big fish
Not this, I'm talking about your spouse
I like him
It seems, now because of you, my tired bones my get some rest
How many fingers? - Ten
No, it's eleven - No, they're ten
Look closely. Count
10, 9, 8, 7, 6 and five on the other hand, makes eleven!
Okay now let me tell you something - Alright, go ahead
An electric train was going from North to South
And the wind was blowing from East to West -Okay
Now tell me which way the smoke will go then -Towards the west
Hey, an electric train doesn't emit no smoke
Hey, let it play -This is a song from file "Agnipareeksha"
Don't you desire to act again?
Dinu?
Why didn't you turn up for lunch - I won't eat
Why -There's a fair at the next village
So what? - All my friends are going
Then who is stopping you? - I won't go with Damu
Why so? - He doesn't allow me to ride the swings
I see. Then with whom do you wish to go?
I don't know -Oh really! Don't you know?
No. Auntie, would you please come lt'll be such fun
"Fun we'd have". You really know how to beat around the bush
Why all this fuss. Of course, I'll go with you
Damu? - Yes, madam
Please have the car out
The car! But, madam... - I want to take Dinu to the fair
Madam, but the car... - I'll inform Mr. Kale, you take out the car
Madam, without his permission, the car cannot leave the compound
What? It looks like your days are numbered
Just watch. I'll speak to Mr. Kale and see that you're dismissed
Sir, madam wanted to go to the fair and I refused
Look -Yes?
This servant Damu has really become audacious
What happened? - I told him to take the car out,
...because I wanted to take Dinu to the fair
He outright refused -So?
What "So"?
I mean, scold him - Damu has been here For years
He knows the rules and customs of this house
The rules?!
You mean, the rules and customs of this house won't allow me to go out?
Am I a slave or a wax doll that you are afraid I'd melt out in the sun?
You're being told to do just what...
...other respectable ladies of this household have been following
My grandmother never stepped out of this house, neither did my mother
...except for the occasions of marriage and the like
My wife too never went out, even when she could walk
This is the tradition of our family
Your family. But I'm not from this family
Nobody forced you to enter this family, am I right?
But from the day you entered this house, you became one of us
I didn't realize that... - Well, now You do
You'd have to abide by the rules and traditions of this house
You simply can't expect to have the freedom you enjoyed in Bombay
Does all your lecture imply that you're afraid I'd leave you?
Listen carefully...
...within these walls you'll have all the respect of a housewife
Whatever you say can be agreed to
But keep one thing in mind No woman of this household has...
...ever ventured out, nor ever will Only after death is this possible
Would that be all?
Pakistan is now under Military rule
General Ayub has taken over by overthrowing Sikandar Mirza
General Ayub has become chief Martial Law Administrator
He is now in complete charge of the Armed Forces
Gangu, did you post that letter I gave you?
Yes, madam - Did You put the stamps
Of course -You posted on that same day?
Yeah
Don't live on false hope, Usha
Look at me. Who can change the course of fate
Will I never be able to leave?
First of all, would the person you've called, come here?
If I were you, I'd make compromise with this imprisonment
Even if you were to leave, what would change?
You'll be in a different bed with a different man
You'd have to cook in a different kitchen
The face of a man may change, but not the man himself
And how much longer still you'll drift about?
Auntie, someone has come for you
Usha, your letter arrived late
Usha...
Usha... your mom has passed away
By the grace of God my business is doing well
Everything is going well. Usha...
Usha, can't we two start all over again?
What do you feel?
Perhaps not
You may not have wished to return home so...
I've booked you a room in a hotel
Would I be able to meet Sushma, can't I?
Is this something to be asked?
Good morning, madam
It's our granny's record
Hey, Sushma! - Mother!
My my, look at how you've grown!
Tell me how have you been? - Pregnant
What're you talking about? - It's over 2 months now
Sushma, what have you done?
Sushma, a woman's character is her main virtue
Mom, you're still lost in your film dialogues. I've married
Relieved? - Oh, dear!
Where is he? - At work
He insisted that I bring you home
We both wish for you to live with us
Mother?
Did mother miss me?
Do come to meet me sometime. Okay?
I'd myself have to face my solitude
Hello, Usha -Hello
It's Rajan here -Rajan?!
How did you know that I was back in Bombay?
Forget all that Tell me when can you meet me?
I've a lot to talk to you about
Some personal and some related to films
Hello? Usha, are you listening?
There's still a demand for you amongst producers
Hello, hello? Usha, what's the matter?
Hello, hello? Why aren't you speaking?
Hello? Usha? Are you all right, Usha?
Usha, Usha? Hello, hello, hello?
