Natya Mayuri Miss Sailaja’s dance performance mesmerizing audience with her dance moves
The most exciting performance in the city given by Miss Sailaja
Oh, great
See, how great is the response coming over to my place and how great are the reviews and applauds in all the papers
If your mom had come and seen, she’d have said, “My dear Kishore, you’re great my boy”
He’d have said not to have any objection to give you in marriage to me
Then I’d have said, yes and ok madam
I don’t need this yes or Ok, I’m sorry - Oh no, what’s this so suddenly?
What’s this, am I a scar to the dance? Mine are just silly jumps and a headache for Nataraja?
I don’t want to stay here anymore.
Sailu, please - Get my ticket for me
Hear me - No
I’ll tear apart the guy who wrote like this. I’ll kill him, if he doesn’t beg your feet
Who wrote this? - Some Balu it seems
No Mom, we both are coming home for lunch - Come in
Come
What’s this? What’re this writings?
Ok - Were you conscious while writing?
Oh, is this the man? - Yes
Idiot, you write at your will as you have a pen and paper?
Who do you think is Mr. Kishore Babu? He’s the son of our Auditor Sir
You write so crazily not knowing who is it? Don’t you have sense?
What qualification do you have to write about classical dance, you idiot?
Are you any Bharata Muni?
Silently fall on Sailaja madam’s feet ask her to forgive you
Otherwise I’ll break your legs, be careful
Where? - Bathroom
What? - Bathroom
Why do you sit here, idiot? Go and apologize to her
How did you dance for this stanza yesterday?
You!
Balu!
Come on, dance
What dear, you don’t know?
“Five elements being the ornaments on face”
“The six seasons being the character”
“Five elements being the ornaments on face”
“The six seasons being the character”
Is this a classical dance? - Why, is it not?
Which tradition? - Idiot!
Do you even know how many traditions are there?
This is called as Bharata Natyam
“Five elements being the ornaments on face”
“The six seasons being the character”
“Five elements being the ornaments on face”
“The six seasons being the character”
This is Bharata Natyam
“Five elements being the ornaments on face”
“The six seasons being the character”
“Five elements being the ornaments on face”
“The six seasons being the character”
This is Kathak
“Five elements being the ornaments on face”
“The six seasons being the character”
“Five elements being the ornaments on face”
“The six seasons being the character”
Kathakali - Yes
How you think is how you see
How you see is how your mind is
How your mind is, the same is your feeling
How you feel is how your art is
Sight, mind and thought should be concentrated on your art
Only then you get perfection in that art
Your sight was on the audience and mind was on their claps
Concentration is on the titles to receive
Natya Mayuri!
What did you say?
Bastard! - No!
Salute Sir
“Your looks being the eight directions”
“Your words being the nine emotions”
“Lord blessing those in penance”
Damn! None can better you, idiot.
Feeling that you’d get better having some work, got you this job begging people
You know the result of your idiotic deed?
No need, you need nothing
Cough, come on cough idiot! You cough so continuously and can be gone some day
This bad time will be over
What exactly is our relation? Are you my brother? Who are you?
We met somehow and thought live together
I can’t face the blows now because of you. Even my patience is dead
We have no relation from now onwards. Yes!
“If ending in death or burnt in the pier”
“Sweet relation will never end”
“The tune of affection won’t go away from the heart”
Only one person can write such a great poetry in this world
You, it’s you dude
Ok, come let’s go home
What did you just say?
There isn’t any relation between us?
We cut just for once.
Hey, when you light my pier after I die, it’s then. - Balu
Only then! Whatever I do till then - Hey
You’ve to bear it. - Balu
Hey, I’m feeling hungry. Take me home.
I learnt Bharatha Natyam, Kuchipudi and Kathakali. Now…
No Telugu?
Bharaha Natyam
Kuchipudi
And learnt even Kathakali
Now
Want to learn Kathak
I don’t have
Name, Balu
Hey, what’s that silent language?
She understood and didn’t you understand?
I said wish to learn Kathak also. I said no money and will repay by serving the master
She said Ok
Ok, move now
Ok! There are also Manipuri, Bhojpri, Odissy, Assam etc., Learn even those
Life will be over with that
Come home fast
Balakrishna! Balakrishna!
No idea what this evil script is, I don’t understand. Baby Sumathi! - Yes
Read this to me
Please don’t ask for rent. If you ask, I’ll have to commit suicide
What, staying in my house and not paying me the rent, do they say me to commit suicide?
When they are asking me to commit suicide, does that feel a joke to you?
No dad, they’re saying to commit suicide if asked for rent
Oh, why don’t you read like that? They are threatening even like this now
Look, inform me if those step in here and I’ll teach them a lesson
Hello - Yes
Are you waiting for me? - Yes, to see if you commit suicide
What to do? No jobs
If we think of vacating the house, we aren’t getting a better house than this
Even if we get, those owners may not have kind heart like you
Baby Sumathi - What daddy?
Did those idiots come? - Not yet
Ok, inform me once they come - Ok
They commit suicide it seems, suicide
Who are idiots? - Who else, you both. Where is he?
He joined Kathak - His mom came
She waited till now for him and just left to the station
Whatever you stare and see, you can just see the tracks and poles, but he won’t come.
No idea whether he knew that I came or not
What if he knows? He should have free time, right?
He might be dancing beside some canal or in an old temple
It’s natural
No, he won’t come
You get in. Train is moving, you get in
Hey, you should work and earn make her feel comfortable.
Why do you still give her the trouble? Rascal!
Balu! Son is here - Mom
Don’t get down
You can’t run and get in. I can neither get you in
How’s your life? - Fine
Who bought these? - Me
Why’s this so? - It’s good
Don’t get down
No problem uncle, there is still time
You wrote not to be feeling well, how are you now mom?
I’m fine son. Uncle arranged for medicines. How are you son?
Are you eating in time?
You should take good care of him, son
None needs to take care. It goes as written
There, siren is on. Get in - Get in mom
Take good care of mom - Ok, write letters
Balu, take this 25 rupees - Why mom?
No problem, buy something son - No mom
Ok, come and sit - You sit mom
You stop, man
Hey, aren’t you ashamed to take her hard earned money?
Mom, keep this money - Son, buy something
No problem, I’ll send money in few days
Buy a good sari - Son
Uncle! Keep writing letters - Balu
Take good care of mom - Ok
Mom, don’t forget - Ok
Move, say what’s that job and I’ll do it
Sir, Mr. Balakrishna came to see you - Ask him to come
Please come - Come on, dude
Hello Sir, this is Balu I said about
He’s the dance director for 70% of the films now, Mr. Chittaranjan
Hello Sir
My friend knows Kuchipudi, Bharatha Natyam, Kathak…
Geetha - Sir
Call the director and enquire which song is first
What did you say?
My friend knows Bharatha Natyam, Kuchipudi… - Michael
Come on, come on
Is the stuff good? - Yes Sir, good material
I’m here for four days, get two more bottles. Go
What did you say?
My friend knows Bharatha Natyam, Kuchipudi…
What did they say Geetha?
It seems they’d first shoot the duet song
Ok! Listen to that once and compose it roughly. I’ll see later
What did you say?
My friend knows Bharatha Natyam, Kuchipudi…
My friend knows Kuchipudi, Bharatha Natyam, Kathakali Sir
He’s even learning Kathak
Working under you, it’ll help him financially and he also will gain experience
Geetha, this boy - Balakrishna, Sir
It seems he is a dancer, let’s see
Play the song once and listen. Learn how to compose
Learn
Michael! Michael!
See you, dude. Take good care of my friend
Shall we listen?
See you Sir - Ok
“Muvva Gopala of thousands of Gopikas is our cute Krishna”
Hello - Please come, director Sir
Material isn’t good - All locations are fixed
It’s now in your hands. Those steps and movements
Don’t worry director Sir, song will be a blast
I sat on that for the whole night. I didn’t touch even food
Then, we shall see it once. We shall divide the shots
Oh! Why later, let’s see right away
Ok, you remember what I composed?
We remember Sir
I’ll say if something goes wrong
“Muvva Gopala of thousands of Gopikas is our cute Krishna”
“Muvva Gopala is our cute Krishna”
“He played flute to make the eyes of beauties glow”
“He looted the butter from the heart”
Huh, bad! Damn
Balu! Balu, what are these jumps?
What’s this? What are you doing?
As it is a good song and literature…
So, will we make any artistic movie? You ruin such a great song?
No Sir, he’s doing his own talent and doing as he likes
Even our director Sir is worried about the same
When there are top hero and heroines in our film, without great steps, what’s this?
I already said it. What I composed is different and what they’re doing is different
If we have those learning classical dance, it goes like this
They’d ruin our prestige completely
Ours is a prestigious film and there isn’t even one club dance
At least this one song…
No, don’t be tensed. I composed keeping that in mind.
How did I compose?
You remember or shall I do and show?
As Hero and Heroine’s characters are pure…
Why do we need roles and the characters? This is a box office film
Top stars and duets! Ooty and Kodaikanal! Steps, steps man!
Yes, we need steps
What was that background, we need steps
Heroine solo without hero two loops
Why do we need these loops and loopholes Sir, for top stars? - Not loopholes
Why does he say loopholes, Sir? - Balu
That first intro, heroine will be behind hero
Hero behind the hero, he takes the girl behind tree like this
He comes over her
Tilt up camera!
What happens down, we’ll show it upwards
What’s down, you look upwards
We shake the tree - Wow! Note that, note it
After that… After that
“Muvva Gopala of thousands of Gopikas is our cute Krishna”
“He played flute to make the eyes of beauties glow”
“He looted the butter from the heart”
“Muvva Gopala of thousands of Gopikas is our cute Krishna”
“This little boy eating mud is the boy seeing you”
“He has no parents with him but has a lady by his side”
“He is the handsome man playing flute to taking into a trance”
“He robbed all the saris and got the body rid from troubles”
“He’s born as a replica of all Potanna’s poetry”
“Muvva Gopala is our cute Krishna”
“Muvva Gopala of thousands of Gopikas is our cute Krishna”
“He’s got thousands of names”
“He romanced and went to set a compromise”
“He recited meaningful Githa and changed many fates”
“He remained forever as a great man”
“He rised like a flood through Varadaiah’s songs”
“Muvva Gopala is our cute Krishna”
“Muvva Gopala of thousands of Gopikas is our cute Krishna”
“He played flute to make the eyes of beauties glow”
“He looted the butter from the heart”
“He played flute to make the eyes of beauties glow”
“He looted the butter from the heart”
“Muvva Gopala of thousands of Gopikas is our cute Krishna”
Wow, it’s a hit when danced like this
What’s in this, see on the screens!
There’ll be flowers showered, money showered
Whole industry should know how to take the dance songs
Cheers - Cheers
“Hail to Lord Ganesha”
“Hail and prayers to Goddess Saraswathi”
Balu
Hey Balu
Balu
Are you gone mad?
There should be a limit even to madness
What do all think when you do so like gone mad on the roads?
When I showed dancing great as it was a good song and good literature, he said no for that and ruined it
Don’t they know about good, bad and well being?
They spend Lakhs and have actors paid Lakhs, it’s them to see what they need
What for you in between?
I performed and showed it, right? - Silence
Getting angry when did idiotic jumps and filthy movements
They said it’s good and praised fantastic and said cheers!
Damn!
Don’t these big named celebrities feel ashamed to be doing these marching and filthy movements?
Shut up and do as they say obediently till you gain a name
No, I won’t see his face again. That idiot is floating in Whiskey round the clock
Hey, when asked for a job why you took me to him - Silence
You be silent. Great master, Guru!
Drunkard, drunkard!
Stop!
Did we reach home?
Come - No!
What’s wrong again, dude?
Is it Krishnashtami, today? - Yes, why?
See, how sacredly has sister in law drawn Krishna’s feet for little Krishna to walk in
See dude
And in the way for the Krishna to walk in…
Didn’t he come?
He came. As today is festival, saying he can’t come in like this, he sat right there
Poor guy, didn’t eat anything
Why did you come sister in law?
Here
I didn’t drink much - I haven’t asked
Take
Mummy, mummy!
Come dear - See this - Good morning aunty
Kishore, show that
Are you fine, son - Fine aunty
Read this
What’s this like a kid, Sailu?
Feel me as a kid for a minute, read mummy
Natya Mayuri Miss Sailaja
Are you clapping for yourself?
Why don’t you talk at all?
Can you give me some water, aunty?
Wait, I’ll talk
You too should’ve come to Hyderabad with us, aunty
What a public and what applause! What Sailu?
What are these titles and felicitations so fast?
Mummy, mummy - She didn’t still learn properly
Thank you
Yes, you’d say so for no evil sight to fall. All papers praised a lot saying she’s an expert
What Sailu?
Why do you ask me every time like we are saying lies?
Aunty, did I ever say lies? - No
See the papers if needed and you’ll know it
Are any still remaining? - Yes
Mummy, it seems Kishore’s dad wants to speak something with you
What’s it regarding?
Who knows, maybe something to be spoken by the elders
We’re kids and do they say it to us?
Not even knowing that five elements means earth, water, air, fire and sky…
In the stanza narrating five elements, did you enact like ghosts and devils?
How did that paper come into this? - Have you done so?
He was some fool mom, only he wrote like that
Kishore called and scolded that rascal strongly
Balu
That fellow, Balakrishna Bhagavathar
This is Kathak, this is bharatha natyam and this is Kathakali
Boasted high like just he knows everything
Mad idiot tried to perform and show
What is the name you said? - Balakrishna
Balakrishna
Did he perform all dances and show?
Yes, he’d have learnt in childhood
He should be steady to show, right? He was shaking badly, drunkard. Damn!
Why are you asking so seriously mummy? As he wrote so?
Is he still there?
Poor fellow was still alive when we saw
But if what we heard about him is true, he’d have been dead by now
Even his looks were so
Hey, rascals!
You remove my friend from job, rascals?
Call the Manager. Call the Manager
Two mistakes! He has done two mistakes
Number one, great poet and genius Raghu, my friend, my father and my God
Does he give proof reader job to such a great poet?
That is number one mistake
Number two
Number two, does he remove him from even that job?
Call him where is he? I want to talk to him
Excuse me
Hello, hello! Balu, operator! I want the proprietor
Raghu’s friend! Two mistakes, he’s done
Balu, Balu what’s this? Listen to me, what’s this nuisance here?
Move, you move out. You move out, man
Listen to me, move out. You move out
Oh no, leave me. Leave
Two mistakes, two mistakes you have done
What are they?
One, great poet and my friend Raghu! Proof reader?
Not just the five organs but a sage would make them go still
Human sculpts the world like a stone into Ahalya
Written by my friend, Raghu. He’s a great poet, great poet
Proof reader - Balu
Hey Balu, what’s this?
Rascal, you
Hey, what’s this?
This fellow did two mistakes - Ok, come on
Wait dude, wait - Come on, dude
Wait
For the first mistake fall on Raghu’s feet - Hey
Rascal! You should make Raghu as the editor
They’ll make, come on
I’m talking for you
Hey, two mistakes - Ok, move
Let him do - When said to make you editor
He’ll do, come on - Wait
Hey… - Balu
Balu! What happened, dude?
Is it paining? Where?
Balu - Nothing
Is it paining lot - Wait
Come on, dude - Wait
Come, let’s go to the Doctor - He did two mistakes
Ok, come on - Two mistakes
Excuse me, what’s he to you? - Why Sir?
Is he an alcoholic? - Anything serious?
His liver is completely damaged. It’s tough to live if he can’t quit drinking
I’m just coming over there, sister
Please warn him
Balakrishna, madam - Yes
I see. Recently made a mess writing a review in our paper, Balu - Yes
I see. No idea where he stays, madam
Not that - No, not now
I came for him from so far, I should meet him somehow
We should be surprised that he’s still alive. He’s a drunkard
In that trance, he may fall under some bus or lorry - Please
You should somehow enquire about him and let me know his address
I’m staying in this hotel - Room number?
209 - 209
Oh no!
Hey Chakri - No!
What’s wrong?
What’s wrong, dude? - What are those screams?
It makes kids fear
These are the Jatis - Jatis or my foot?
What’s that with elders, rascal? My foot!
Do you really know photography?
I’ve been working in photo studio from Four years and what’s that idiotic question?
Go, stand and I will click
Where, here?
This place is fine, right? - Ok
Ready, steady!
Did you click? - First class
Chakri dear, these are dance photos. That’s why I give a posture. You…
Give, give that fast. I’m very hungry. Come on give
Posture isn’t what you eat. It’s a pose like this
Oh, pose? You can’t say even that, my foot
Where did you stick to me, dude?
Ready, ready - Wait
Pose
Steady
Pose
Steady
Pose
Steady
Pose
Good, this pose is good
This isn’t a pose idiot, a mosquito
Pose
Ok, ok! Come outside and I’ll click like you jumped over the coconut tree
It’s good here
Here? - Yes
Yes, right there
Jump - Say when to jump
One, two and three
Jump - I jumped, dude
Then, why was it not seen?
Rascal - No
You said studio for so many years and experience, what’s that?
Sit in that chair
Hey, you said to be working in photo studio from four years. Is this the work?
Why, isn’t this work?
Please sit in that Chair
You’ve ruined me Chakri
And my photos
You gave the slip to Proprietor Sir and he’ll get them
Why’s that hurry?
What to sweep now when customers are coming? Go
Here are your photos, Sir
We printed few as samples. But unfortunately nothing came correctly
Daddy - Coming dear
If you need a drink, you get it for free
What is this, idiot? - You
This - Tirupati
This is camera mistake
Oh no, proprietor would kick if he sees
How did Tirupati come here again?
How did it come, huh!
This isn’t good
What’s this? - Your leg
Just the legs, did you click at least one photo good?
Yes, it’s behind
This one
Excuse me
Hello Madam, be seated - Yes
Hello madam - Hello
I did few test prints as you said, they came beautiful. Excellent
Thanks - Hello Sir, excuse me
Give me my bill
Excuse me madam, you’ve clicked his photos right? - Yes
You look to be a good dancer
Daddy - Coming dear
You… - My name is Madhavi
I was there when you and that boy were doing feats with the camera
Photography is my hobby
You like dance? - How do you know?
No, an article “Dance forms and temple structures” came in Illustrated Weekly recently
It said texts and photographs by Madhavi, it was you right?
Yes, I wish to start the second series too - Oh, very good
If you help me - Sure
But you too should do me a small favor - What?
Here, I got these photos clicked to show my mom but this guy did like this
My mom came here for Dr. Satyamurthy’s son’s marriage
If you can give one photo from these, I’ll take and - I see
We too have come for the same marriage - Drinks!
Look, all from this - No, you give to this fellow
Do I print them, my foot! It’s the proprietor. You and your foolish doubts
Please say madam
Ask your proprietor to urgently print all from this - Ok
These are photos. What are these?
What’s this? A junk
Please have it
Mom, mom! - Yes
I said Madhavi madam right? It’s her
Hello madam - Hello
Oh no, clothes will get dirty
Balu, get that stool son
No problem
My Krishna! - No Mr. Balakrishna
Thank you
Will you have coffee - Oh no please
Crazy idiot! He’s crazy about dance from childhood
No idea! I don’t even get those names properly
Manipuri, Odissy and something else and he want to learn even those dances
Then, he’d make a form named Bharatiya Nrityam mixing all the forms it seems
Crazy fellow! If his dad was alive, he’d have arranged to learn them all by now
He too likes music and dance very much. My income is very little
He’s somehow learning by requesting and pleading one and all
You’d have seen.
I’m smaller in age and why do you give so much respect?
No problem dear, you are a rich girl.
Just in the photos, he looks so bright. No idea how my son looks while dancing in real
Maybe as my sight disturbs if I see in real, that God may take me away before watching it
Come on, nothing would happen so. We are all here to take care
Here - Mr. Balu
Oh no - It’s hot
You should give a great performance as per our wish
He’d give, but when? His whole life is enough to learn all across the nation
And our life will be done like this in marriages and functions
After that… Give, give one
After that, when reborn he’d dance and we will see
Enough of what’s cut. Go and go and grind the dal
Why are you still in that work? Come on cut those vegetables
What are you doing here? Some great lady is dancing there, it seems
Go learn the techniques
Papad color isn’t good, let that fry further
You go dear, go fast
Yes, you’re doing the plates and I’m watching
Go on… You carry on
Photos are good, son. See you dear - Fine
Balu, come here - Yes
Will you ask for one photo and take? I’ll take it with me - Yes
Hey, no! - She doesn’t misunderstand
No need, she’d think us cheap
See you dear
Many thanks. Where are you staying? - That…
Mom - Yes
I’m here and I’ll do that. Get up
Move mom
Here
“Hey kid! One adorned with rich garments and protector of the virtuous!”
“One adorned with rich garments and protector of the virtuous!”
“Hey rejoice of Goddess Lakshmi and wielder of arrows!”
“Bestower of auspiciousness, treasure of companion and cloud like hued!”
“Why don’t I get your mercy?”
“This isn’t the time to make fun”
“Come hey Lord of the Lords”
“Come hey great man!”
“Come on hey lotus eyed Lord”
“Hey son of Raghu dynasty, Lord surrounded by those whose hearts are filled with nectar!”
“Lord surrounded by those whose hearts are filled with nectar!”
“Lord as majestic as the ocean, destroyer of demons and son of Dasaratha!”
“Lord conversing with the wise all around the world!”
“Why don’t I get your mercy?”
“This isn’t the time to make fun”
“Why don’t I get your mercy?”
My boy!
You danced so well dear
May the evil sight be gone from your son!
Baby, let’s leave after lunch if you pack the bags and be ready - Ok
I’ll go to the hall and inform Mr. Murthy by then - Ok Daddy
Hello Sir - Hello
Miss Madhavi - My daughter
Hello Sir - Daddy
Hello
I said Mr. Balakrishna, a great artist and a gifted dancer.
He’s the one - Hello Sir
If known before, we would’ve arranged his performance yesterday at the marriage
No, I haven’t yet reached that stage Sir. I’m just learning
I see - You are too modest
Please come
See you Sir - See you
Daddy - What dear?
If Saroja is willing, bring her. We shall take with us.
Let them not talk bad saying we didn’t ask - Ok
Go on
This is a big headache with these relatives. They never care about others problems
Be seated
Ramu!
New place
Why trouble for you? - No problem
These relatives keep waiting for a very minute chance to point out
Will there be same problem even with friends?
Why, you think I’d feel the same about you?
Why not think?
You aren’t a relative or a friend. A friendly relative above the both, ok?
Then do one thing, stop calling me as Balakrishna and call me Bandhuhit Bandhopadhyay
It’s good, you can add even Pandit after you become a great dancer in future
Oh no! Oh God, that would become much lengthier
Pandit Bandhuhit Bandhopadhyaya
Let it be. If it feels tougher, we can take the prefixes and call as Pan Ban Ban
It sounds sweet, right?
Coffee - Yes
It’d take 10 to 15 years to become Pan Ban Ban, but a small request by then as Ba Kri
What’s that Mr. Balakrishna?
Mom and team are leaving this evening by train
If you can give one from yesterday’s photos, I wish to give them
Say the truth, you felt it or she said to ask
Mom said to ask
Later she said, it isn’t good and no
I dared and am asking
So, you understood your mom after so long. Is it?
Yes, I’m learning now to understand the opposite’s heart
So, you’re developing faster
So, it won’t take much time from Ba Kri to Pan Ban Ban
Oh no! Have you become Na Kri again?
I’ll get the photos
All for you, for your mom
When a person gets so close with the slightest friendship…
It’s enough if you don’t forget us after you get popular in future
Thus, to be on safe side I have a small request - What?
To get a photo clicked with you
With me? - Yes
To say greatly in future that I too know this world famous Balu Sir
Pan Ban Ban - Pan Ban Ban
And who’d click?
This has a self timer - Oh
It isn’t there in this poor thing
Set it, I’ll learn
Do you know how to focus - Yes, focus…
This is focus - Oh this
Do it
Sorry
You do it - Yes
Yes, come… Oh no!
Sorry
See, this is timer. No, don’t press right away.
I’ll go and stand there. You press and come - Ok
Ok, understood? - After this focus - Yes
Give some space beside you, even for me
Yes, ready
This one, right? - Yes, that
Shall I press - Yes
I pressed - Come before it leaves
Why’s this leaving? - Come before it leaves
What? - Come before it leaves
What? - I said to come
Smile
Don’t do anything to my father - Oh no
I can’t see anything - Daddy
Oh no, I’m gone blind - I can’t see you so, daddy
No, I can’t see anything - Hello Mr. Raghu, save my dad
Hey Balu, leave that poor man. He can’t withstand
What is your dirty concern? This is my house and my rent
When I came to ask, you do so to me?
Balu, leave him. Balu! - Hey!
Please don’t go
Hey Balu, at least stop now idiot
Does Mr. Balu stay upstairs? - Yes madam
You are… - My name is Madhavi
Oh, is it you
Dear Balakrishna
I won’t move
Hey Balu, Miss Madhavi is coming
So what, I won’t move from here. - Oh no, my leg
Please come
Hey, my leg - This is one leg dance
Hey, my leg - He’s my uncle.
Poor man wishes a lot to learn dance from Balu
Hey, oh no!
Salutes after learning it all
This is the first lesson. Here, make him practice - Yes uncle
You’ll become a great dancer
Madam, this isn’t a dance or my foot. These are
This isn’t dance but jumps. Wait for just one month and you’ll completely get it
Will it completely come? - Yes
Without any balance - Yes
How’d it come in a month? You can’t get even hundredth part
She said the real truth - Oh no
Oh no, I’ll die if it continues so
My uncle says to risk even life for the art
Poor man
Should you take so much strain? When you asked for address, I thought you’d send by post
We stay in the same place and thought why to post
So, you too - Yes
This…
If it doesn’t come even in your camera, it must be a curse
Hello
Thank you
Balu! - Dancer!
I’ve never seen a person who adores dance so much, uncle
He forgets everything while dancing, so devoted, so religious
You should see his dance once
Why dear, you wrote so clearly and it’s like I saw
Good tempo knowledge, good thought process, very good foot work and it must be fine
Thus, we should make him perform at all India dance festival
They said it’s in Delhi this time, right uncle?
Yes dear, a good occasion and a very good opportunity. It’ll be fine
Selection committee chairman is Dr. Divakar, second son of our Patwardhan
He worked as mu assistant in GMH. He’s a good art lover, very good gentleman and fine person
Then, definitely include Balu’s program uncle - Ok dear
Then it’ll be good, very good - Very fine also
I’ll get juice for you, dad
Who’s that boy?
No idea, I think she met him at the recent marriage
I see great change in Madhavi compared to the previous days
She looks very happy and energetic. It’s a good change and very good improvement
That’s why I never objected when she clicked photos, wrote articles as a hobby
But this boy and this friendship…
Enough if Madhavi can forget her past at least this way
It’s good, very good. It’s fine for her
They say All India music and dance festivals take place every year, are they so great?
Yes, it’s very special.
Artistes from all over… Wait…
Ambassadors from different nations and special dignitaries and at times even Prime Minister comes
To perform before so many great people and co-artistes, it should be in fate
It’s tough for people like us, even to think of it
Have you ever been at least to see that festival?
Thank you
No way! Once, I somehow tried hard and got one invitation from master
But exactly when I had to go, I had no money and…
Luck should be there
I have few invitations for this time’s festival. You can go
Do you have invitations?
Here!
All India dance… this is the one
Inaugural dance by Yamini Krishnamurthy! My God!
Odyssey dance by Sonal Mansingh! Oh!
Is she so great? - Then what?
Mohini Attam by Geetha Nair, wow!
Kathak dance by Gopi… Gopi Krishna!
All are great dancers this time
Classical dances item by Balakri…
He too is a very great dancer
What is this like a small kid?
I… Thank you!
Oh!

Congratulations Mr. Balu, you danced great
Please wait, please
Ok!
How?
Mr. Balu! Mr. Balu, careful
Here, give!
Hey, wait!
Oh no!
Please
Leave my hands, man
Oh no!
Ladies are coming
What happened?
Please go
Hey, what’s this?
Respect!
Sorry
Balakrishna!
Congratulations Sir
Oh! - Madhavi madam
Madhavi madam - Yes Raghu
Madhavi madam - Just a minute
Tomorrow is the journey and she’s packing bags inside
Madhavi madam - Oh, did Mr. Balu’s mom come?
She isn’t in a condition to come. She’s very sick
What do you mean? - Yes
Oh! So sorry
Poor fellow bought new dress for her mom
He wished her to wear that silk sari and sit in front of him and when he is dancing before the public…
So sad!
I think it’s better we cancel this trip
No! Will such a great chance come again if missed?
Even his mom wanted him to reach heights and that he should be recognized
We should somehow convince him and take
Lungi! - Going to Delhi - Bye
What dude, did you pack? - Come on
Where’s mom? Is she down?
Come on Madhavi madam, I think he packed and I’ll be ready in 10 minutes
Let’s start then
Mom! Mom!
What dude, didn’t mom come? - She didn’t come
Why?
Why means, she agreed a marriage many days back it seems
She said can’t make it and asked us to go. Start now
She’s going for a marriage and let’s go to a function
How hard did you try and get me this chance?
Even if my mom couldn’t say to Ganapathi uncle in fear, shouldn’t this idiot say?
Shouldn’t he say and bring her?
It may be true but her situation - Nothing
If I had gone, she’d have come flying with me and this fellow
Hey, come with Madhavi madam with the luggage
I’ll go and get mom directly
Balu! Listen to me, no need for you to go
I need it, no program without mom - She won’t come and she can’t
Why? - She’s sick
Mom!
Mom! Mom!
I’m Balu
Uncle! - What’s this son?
I said right uncle, his program is there in Delhi. It’s that invitation
Mom, All India Dance festival, New Delhi!
I even bought a silk sari for you mom
Mom, while you are sitting in front and watching
This is me, me!
Bala... Balakrishna!

Come on, click
Go further back
Where more into the river?
If so close, just a leg or hand comes and they may think you lame
Go a bit back
By the time you click the photo, I may flow away in the water
Ok, click
Silence, don’t talk. You won’t come good if you talk
What photos standing in the sea? Oh no, we should take at some Polavaram
You should have a brain there.
If you take photo at sea like this, you could say to have clicked in Bombay or Goa
You can smile later, first click the photo
Hello Sir - Chakri
When did you come here?
Tides are coming, I may flow away - You won’t flow away
My grandpa sir, very afraid
Sir, no use working there for any long
Thus I came here to make my uncle open a photo studio
No problem now Sir, new camera
How are you, Sir? - I’m there
You click the photo
Grandpa! Oh no, grandpa!
Grandpa! Grandpa!
Wait grandpa, I’ll click the photo - Go idiot
Wait - I don’t need
Wait, I’ll really click - I don’t need
Wait grandpa
Why are you laughing within?
I was thinking it’d be great going back to that boy’s age unable to understand
pleasures and troubles completely
It seems you too were going backwards like that before, it seems? Thrice a week!
Who said?
I know even if you don’t say
Your friend Mr. Raghu said about all your deeds
Idiot! Don’t care about what he said
Shall I care about the songs?
Just the words from the songs, but we shouldn’t care when he’s singing
Such a great voice and a greater tune than that
I didn’t feel so, when I heard his song recently
Which song?
That song which comes next week on radio, why’s this silence
How did he sing?
That is…
“Why’s the silence in this unforgettable night?”
“Moonlight from the heart is glowing through the eyes”
“In the pleasure around”
I think something like this
Say the truth, did he sing like this? - Why, don’t you believe?
You tuned those words like this, right?
What?
If you say good, heartfelt I won’t say a lie
You don’t need to say a lie. Please, you’re great
Ok, I’m great in singing as per your opinion.
As per me, Mr. Raghu is great in writing.
As per all of us, you’re great in dance.
Adding up greats of the three, it goes good if we do all India tour and perform, right?
Why not think of something like that?
Not enough to just have the ideas, but we should get chances to implement them
Where there is a will, there is a way
If you think hard, way automatically shows up
You really don’t know about your talent, Mr. Balu
Appoint me as your secretary and see how your fame and prestige spreads
Will you always be by my side? - Oh sure, why not?
I’ll be always with you
Really? - Promise
Then please, ask to stop the car - Why, I’ll drop at your house
No, I have a small work here. Please stop - Oh
Driver, please stop the car
Thank you
Oh no!
Damn!
See you - Bye
Hello
Madhavi - Yes, it’s me
Balu! Please say
Did you say to be always by my side from the heart?
Why, did you get a doubt again? Blau Sir, don’t have any more doubts
I’ll remain yours sincerely Madhavi, ok?
Thank you, thank you very much
Yes
Madhavi, I love you. I want to marry you
I will marry you, I mean it
Hello
Thank you! Please come
You think a person giving heart to another good person is a mistake? - What?
And those exchanging hearts so… Sorry!
Is it a crime thinking to come close?
You feel it’s any sin for those coming close to become one by marriage bonding?
That’s why I’ve even got wedding cards printed
Be seated, please sit down
There, sofa
Marriage of Raghu and Sumathi - Yes
Poor fellow has none to say as his own and thus
Be seated - It’s ok - Sorry
We should be with them and get this auspicious deed
Sure! I’m very happy that those two are getting married
Ok about those getting married
This is my gift and this song is your husband’s gift.
“Why’s the silence”
“Why’s the silence in this unforgettable night?”
“Moonlight from the heart is glowing through the eyes”
“In the pleasure around”
“Why’s so much silence in this unforgettable night?”
“Why did talking lip shiver?”
“What’s behind the shivering lip?”
“Like the heart getting along and age blossoming”
“Shadowed thoughts and slight breezy promises”
“When asked for something”
“Why’s the silence in this unforgettable night?”
“Snow showered in moon’s hug”
“Flower blossomed at moonlight’s doorstep”
“Are these the seven steps or ponds of romance?”
“Emotions of the girl’s age and whispers of eyes”
“Even after knowing so much”
“Why’s the silence in this unforgettable night?”
“Why’s so much silence in this unforgettable night?”
“Moonlight from the heart is glowing through the eyes”
“In the pleasure around”
“Why’s so much silence in this unforgettable night?”
I don’t know whether I’m greedy more than my capacity
I really don’t know
I’m wishing to marry Madhavi, Sir
Of course, if you don’t have an objection for that
And only if Madhavi agrees
Being my only daughter, wished that she should live happily in a wealthy family
I fixed her marriage in a traditional family
We came to know that my entire wealth in court has gone over to my cousins
They knowing this felt very angry
They gave judgment saying that marriage never happened, went away leaving her with me
I went to their place and pleaded them catching their feet
I requested not to ruin my daughter’s family at the very beginning
But, they sat over the wealth part stubbornly
Madhavi stayed back right here, with a hope that their hearts would change at some point
Hello Sir - Hello
How do you do? - You know me?
Though I couldn’t see your marriage directly, I’ve seen your wedding album
That wasn’t a marriage.
Please
Just a nightmare
A bad incident which gave pain and troubled all making restless
Though I knew what I was doing is wrong that day, I just bent my head
That was for my dad’s satisfaction. He’s no more
I don’t feel ashamed to bow my head ask for an apology today
I’ve thus come here
Madhavi, I wished that you should settle in life and thus I came to search for a man
to make you happy and get you married to him.
You put aside that trouble for me.
Madhavi, I know what Balu is and how good he is. I know.
Yes Balu, Doctor Uncle said everything about you. I’m extremely happy
You make an ideal couple
Please - Thank you
Please have it
I haven’t settled in life till now
I can’t settle any more now sharing life with another woman
Thus I’ve decided to at least settle in business
I’m selling away all properties here and moving permanently to Canada
If you both good hearted people bless me and say bye, I think I’ll be like you at least there
Do you believe in God?
I’m not an atheist
You believe me too, right?
Did I behave like I don’t?
As you believe me, please respect my words too
After seeing Mr. Gopalrao and after listening to his words, I felt he’s really a God
I don’t need to say you with theism newly to worship that God
I wish you both to be happy forever with great health and wealth
Please don’t think of anything else. He’s a good man and able person
Madhavi will be happy. I sincerely wish her all the best.
Let it happen Sir
Mr. Balu, all the best
You aren’t going alone
Hi Balu
Will you click or should I?
I’ll click and it’d come good this time
Do you have flash? - What?
Flash!
I have it
Give some place to me also beside you
Hello! Yes, myself
What? Oh! What’s the house number?
Somehow this…
You said one of your friend said that some specialist cured such disease in Ooty or somewhere
All those are rich people Sir - See you
They can cure even the costly diseases
People like us leading lives in debts will have to adjust with herbal lotions
It’s me, Madhavi
Please come
I think some guests - Yes, thank you
Please come
Sumathi! Sumathi!
Please come, be seated
Madhavi madam
Hello - Hello
Hubby, her husband
It’s been very long seeing you - Yes
Is what I heard about true? - What did you listen?
I heard what I shouldn’t, that his health is bad and is in a dangerous state
Nothing that you shouldn’t but you heard to what you should
Where is he? I should see him
I want to see him
Sir, say the details
Koundunyasa Gotra
Mrs. Madhavi, Mr. Venugopal
Balu! Balu!
Slow
Balu!
The day when you couple came together as family, it is a festival for him
Though he drinks everyday and does whatever, but just this one day every year he keeps pure and
does worship at every temple praying for you both
Madhavi madam, he lives 364 days for just this one day
Why did he become like this? What happened?
He decided to dedicate himself to dance and fulfill his life
And by then, his mom with great hopes on him passed away
The person whom he felt as a great support, that person… You too went away
He was left behind in pain and depression
He got addicted to drinking for driving away his loneliness
And that addiction made him so and ate him off
Past is past, I’ll take him with me to my place
I’ll show him to a good Doctor. He’d get well
He’d become normal again
No! He imagines you living happily with your husband and can he live seeing you like this?
He’d die at once with his heart stopped
Let him drink like this
It’s better that his life is gone like this in his imagination and happiness in his drunk state
Let him die the same way - No, it shouldn’t happen so
We shouldn’t leave him helplessly to time and fate
If you support me
What’s it, don’t I feel happy to see him getting well?
Say, what shall I do?
What mummy, where is this sudden journey?
To Doctor Grandpa’s house
You should stay there for few days and learn dance
What more to learn now after so many programs and felicitations?
That was my mistake
I said ok when a baby who couldn’t even properly crawl said to run
Oh, so the master to teach me how to walk now is there in that place
Yes - Who?
Mr. Balakrishna - What, Ba…
Are you joking?
What to make fun with you? Come on, we are getting late
No, after writing so bad about me I won’t… - Sailu
Mr. Balakrishna is your master
I won’t learn from him - You are learning
What, dance? Don’t be a fool
Real art died long back and you say someone wants to learn and I should teach
That won’t happen, impossible task
It will happen and should happen
I gave them a word
You once made me do a foolish thing
For 50 rupees, you made me write about an idiot’s dance performance and what happened?
And now another foolish deed? No, either you or I should have some sense
We should be going back. Stop the train
Hold on! Where is the chain? - Sir
Sir - Don’t stop
Pull, come on pull it
You said no problem even if we have no children saying Balu is our kid
Here, this great man saying she isn’t my sister in law but like mom after my mom
says to pull the chain and return home
Move on, you can die in pain thinking I couldn’t get you even medicine when on death bed
Not that Raghu, I can’t teach anyone. I don’t have the will
No, you don’t do something you don’t like
I somehow had a hope. I can’t anyways get her such a treatment
They said to give you a house and big payment.
I dreamt madly that if I get her treated with that money, God would take care of the rest
No problem, she’d die in the next four days instead of four years. That’s it
Why do you sit silently, come on pack it fast!
I think some station is nearing. Let’s return home in the next train - Wait
What?
Why so angry? Be seated
Hello Sir! Hello Sir
Hello Sir - Do you know Mr. Balu before?
I can compare Lord Sri Rama if Crowning ceremony photos are shown, Sir
Hello Sir
Madam is coming, you be seated Sir
Sailu - Yes
Whom should I give all these? - To the master
Salute him and take his blessings - Ok
Come dear
Idiot! You know how many traditions are there? This is Bharatha Natyam
How long would she be so? Bless her
Raghu - Hello Sir
Hello
I’ve arranged it all in the hospital
You first admit and then I’ll take all the tests after coming
Thank you very much
Balu, you know him right? Dr. Murthy Sir, hospital in-charge
He is… - I know him, I know him
Balu, see you. I’ll admit your sister in law before the bad time starts
Grandpa, can I get up now?
Sailu, you go now and get ready for the class
And this dress of master
Get them packed and put them in the out house
Come on Balu, come on
Sivaiah - Madam
Is everything good? Heater in the bathroom and all - Madam
Remaining change after buying all these, madam
Keep it - Madam
You are crazy, will my health get better even if place and Doctors are changed?
No idea about you but I’m confident that Balu’s health will get better
Hello - Hello - Hello
What’s sister in law saying?
It seems you asked to arrange special room.
She on the name of disease and I being her husband got a chance to enjoy luxuries
No, what’s that? She should recover completely and that’s my wish
Madam, this… - Keep it inside
Dr. Murthy Sir is coming and I’ll talk to his assistant by then
Ramaiah - Sivaiah, Sir
Sivaiah, there should be Cigarette packs in that bag. See - Sir
As it smelled bad, I put that bag for washing Sir
And the cigarettes
There was just a towel in that and I’ve taken as that was too worn away Sir
You’ve killed me
You shouldn’t talk so at this dawn time, Sir. It’s wrong, Sir
Bottles in this… - It’s here Sir
Thank God, you’ve at least kept that carefully
Yes, come on. Get it
This is from Tata’s and you get a comb free buying one bottle Sir
All the belongings I brought…
You’d have forgotten somewhere Sir. Madam gets to know even if a diamond is found here, Sir
She gets to know even if a piece of stone goes missing, Sir
Ramaiah - Sivaiah, Sir
This is a cold place and the big people take the holy liquid right? - Yes Sir
Do you know where it can be found? - I know, Sir
Where? - Not just the holy water Sir
Holy water and the offering at Siva’s temple in the mornings, Sir
Holy water and the sweet rice at Vishnu temple in the evenings Sir
Sir, madam asked me not to let you go out in this cold weather
No Sir, no Sir…
I got my sister in law admitted in hospital
No idea, how she is - Is it Sir? Then go Sir
Go safe and come happy Sir
No Sir, take fruits for sister in law Sir
Hello Madam! Hello Madam
Driver, park the car in shed
What Sivaiah, did baby complete her lessons?
No idea about the lesson, but she went out as some Sir came, madam
Sir - Yes madam
It seems some Kishore Sir, Madam
Then, what’s the master doing? - He too has gone out madam
I said not to let him go anywhere and asked you to get if he needs something, right?
I said, madam. But he said some holy water and I didn’t understand, Madam
He left the empty glass there and went to the hospital to see his sister in law, madam
Did he say to be going to hospital? - Yes Madam
Hey!
Sivaiah!
Oh no!
Small Madam, Sir?
Shall I get her here, Sir?
Why Sir?
Will you teach her dance, Sir?
Sir!

Madhavi! - What’s this?
In this rain, on that well… Either the leg slips or you go dizzy
Madhavi, will I be alive so long if I had the luck to die fast?
You like this…
Here! Could I see so like Goddess Parvathi?
Oh no! What are you here?
Who do you think is Sailaja?
That means…
Saialaja… Is it?
How is that? Damn!
Why couldn’t I…
How did I?
Yes! They say it’s lucky for son to be born like mom and daughter like dad
Sailaja is just like him. It’s him, right?
She became your disciple as she’s lucky.
But, the master hasn’t still shown mercy
That is… Not that Madahavi
Yes, dance of ghosts and devils, and a title felicitation for that. Is it that?
Poor girl, what can she do? Small girl and she does how she was taught
I was a mad idiot. Bloody fool! She did everything else fine
She did very great, too great!
That posture and all was perfect
When she just did a small mistake somewhere, writing so bad… Fool!
You wrote as it was and you have no mistake in that
With the ego not to have any mistake, I didn’t apologize to Sailaja that day when asked
Now after knowing all this, I’m not ashamed to ask for apology
Small girl and to her? - To you and your husband
He isn’t here - Oh, is he right there?
Yes, he’s right there - When would he come?
He won’t come, I should go there myself
Leaving Sailaja with you
Oh, will I let you go so easily?
I’ll go there, bring him here, make Sailaja dance, get blessed by Lord Nataraja
Then will make you couple account for the salary you gave and the lessons I taught
And then I’ll go myself after you say I’m done with
How many should I see the account for?
Should I see how many forms and poses you taught?
Should I see how many Brandy and Whiskey bottles you drank?
Should I see how many of your nerves got cut?
Should I see how much of your blood is turned into water?
What shall I see? - No Madhavi
No idea why I got addicted so and why I went so down…
Please don’t ask me anything
I forgot that Lord for so long. I let go practice and music, and roamed around like a mad man
Today you appeared as a Goddess and reminded me of that Lord
Thank you
I promise on his feet and am saying, that drunkard Balu is no more now
He won’t be. I mean it
I… Mean it
Sivaiah - Madam
Food is ready, shall I serve madam?
That’s fine but where’s mom? Isn’t she at home?
Maybe she’s in the outhouse madam - Outhouse?
Master Sir came drunk, madam
Why does she care if he comes drunk?
He is the Master and would die getting drenched in rain and dancing on the well, madam
I can’t say how tensed was Madam. Shall I serve food for you, madam?
No need, I’ll call when I feel hungry - Ok Madam
Hello Sister in law. Wow, looks like all get well, coming here
You too look healthy, except this fool
What, man? - Why are you so happy today?
I’ll say
Hey, come with me
Hey, slowly - Smell me
No drink smell at all - It won’t, check the pulse
It’s normal - It’ll be the same
Here, the heart - It’s sounding like anklets
It keeps sounding and won’t stop
What dude, all of a sudden you became like a God?
As a Goddess appeared! Hey, Sailaja is Madhavi’s daughter
Is it? - Yes
Madhavi was seen yesterday and she said it to me
You saw Madhavi? - Yes, very strangely
Hey, don’t ask where I got the drink from. I was heavily drunk and feet were on the well
On the well?
Yes, the well! Feet were there and the body was floating in the skies
When I was just about to fall in the well and die
Just like this, she caught my hand and pulled me out
When I saw, it was Madhavi. Our Madhavi!
You said were heavily drunk and in a trance. How could you see and recognize?
No, these eyes didn’t recognize, but the heart
Though is grown old, she is charming like Goddess Parvathi
Oh, Doctor Sir is here.
Hello
How are you?
Good morning - Good morning, good news
Wait, should I say first or will you say?
I know what you’re going to say. But what I want to say is
Raghu! Madhavi is donating Five Lakh rupees to our hospital on our golden jubilee celebrations
Great, it’s really great - Then do one thing
What? - Arrange our Sailaja’s dance program in that program
Hey - Yes, a rare item
See, how I’ll train her
Sir, you can see that old Balu in our Sailaja
You print the tickets, announce it - Ok
See you Sir
Doctor Sir
Good day, Doctor - Good day
Balu says to have seen Madhavi
Yes Raghu, Madhavi informed me about what all happened
What she did then was correct, the right thing
Very right thing
Doctor, easily one Lakh collection from us - Sure, thank you
See you
You’d stay for few days, right?
Yes! Ok, see you Sailu - Come and have a coffee
Sailu, not now but will come later
Come on, don’t be silly. There’s nothing to worry, come
Yes Madhavi, it seems they have a good orchestra - Ok
I’ll go talk everything and start the rehearsal tomorrow itself - Ok
After that
Hello - Hello
See you Madhavi. Madhavi!
Let Sailu learn with concentration at least till this program is done, Kishore. Please
Is Mr. Balakrishna just a master for me or anything more?
You too learnt that Master is Brahma, Vishnu and Maheswara. Should I say you?
That implies to a person introduced as a master and who teaches with the same relation
Sailu, even this relation is of same purity
I don’t need to hide why I have to be like this, from you
Mr. Balu - You don’t need to give any explanations and I don’t need to listen
That time when I said Mr. Balu who wrote bad about me was a drunkard ready to die soon,
I didn’t understand why you got so worried then
When you started saying to meet Doctor Grandpa suddenly in the night, I didn’t know where
I didn’t understand why you brought him so far, made him my master
But, can’t I still understand after seeing so much, mom?
Sailu, listen completely to me and decide whether I was right or wrong
Please, I have great respect and devotion towards my dad
I can’t forget him now getting know the right and wrong
Thus I’m asking you to decide whether you stay back here or come with me
Sailu, I thought you were still a kid. You grew very big, dear
Will you leave me and go? What?
Before our family respect leaves us, it’s better I take my precautions
Thus, nothing is still out of hands. Decide who you need
You could say so as you got the courage that you don’t have any more need of me
You got ready to leave with an assurance that you can self sustain
Ok, after you came to such a decision listen to my decision too
I’ll with those, who needs my help - Ok
Then, I’m leaving
Tomorrow is my dad’s death anniversary and you don’t need to get that done
I’ll arrange for that
Madhavi! Sailu!
Hello Sir!
Hello Sir! Hello Sir! - Fine
Madam - She’s been to the temple, Sir
Ok!
Careful Sir - Ok
What’s the matter? - Her husband’s death anniversary
Sastry Sir, we shall go to Mr. Madhava Rao’s house in the morning. Come fast
Balu! Balu!
You’ll be alright - Balu, please
Please!
Raghu - Oh Raghu
He’ll come. I sent a message and he’ll come
Murthy Sir, Balu… - It came very severe this time
He got upset knowing about Madhavi - Oh
He’s very worried saying to see you
I gave sedation. Still, let him not get emotional
Where is he? - That side
Balu! Balu!
Balu
Madhavi! Madhavi - Yes, Madhavi
Do you know? Today is her husband’s death anniversary
You know it, right? - Yes, I know
Then why did you hide it? Why is Madhavi seen so whenever she meets me?
Because you can’t bear knowing about what she went through
We hid it as we can say the reality after your health gets better
For you, to make you a normal man and to see you alive
Who would gain and who loses if I’m alive or dead?
Balu, any art is a blessing from the God and goodwill from the past life
She couldn’t see you ruin this great art by force, given by God
She hoped that the art would re-blossom along with you, if you get better
She dreamt you could remain forever if Sailaja can become your successor
That’s why she tried to see you alive without considering about good or bad
Where is Sailaja?
Dr. Murthy sent me the message
Good that he got him at the right time. I think he’ll be alright
He’s saying, want to immediately see Sailaja. Is she at home?
No, maybe she isn’t there in this city. - What’s that?
Doctor! Doctor! - Yes
You do tests, flood medicines or puncture all over my body. I won’t object
Similarly, you don’t object to whatever I do here
Is it? Don’t say this to Balu. I’ll somehow get Sailu
Madhavi!
Be seated
Madhavi, I’ll die only after I take care that my art doesn’t die with me
Sailu, we are getting down in the next station and going back - Why?
What, why? What does it mean to suddenly leave without information when your program is arranged there in the hospital?
What about those who gave a word there? - Who gave word?
Is it me, her or her Mr. Balakrishna?
Let them go to hell, I don’t care anybody
Sailu! Sailu! - Yes
This is a test both for you and me. Time we have is very less
Unless we practice day and night
Balu! Balu!
That program isn’t important now, it goes on any how
I’ll arrange something as alternative
Doctor, no! She will do and she has to do
Balu, you don’t understand your condition. Try to understand
Doctor, you are eager to see me alive and I’m eager to make my soul be alive
Please, please don’t stop me
See, Sailu is getting ready
Go, go and say that she’s learning and that she’ll come and dance
Balu, listen to me - Go, please go
Take the challenge, please
I neither want to learn nor dance in front of those who I don’t like
Sailu!

Next, members of this Golden Jubilee are greatly indebted to a few
First from them is Mrs. Madhavi, she donated Five Lakh rupees
Next is Sri Balakrishna, he helped a lot for the dance performance of Miss Sailaja
to happen today not caring about his health condition
Now, I request Mrs. Madhavi on your behalf to come here and accept our felicitation
Mrs. Madhavi!
This should be helpful to all. I donated this for not all to praise me or felicitate me
Actual reason I came here is different
Mr. Blakrishna’s mother passed away without witnessing her son’s dance performance
in front of the audience and him being praised by all
I being selfish not to witness such a scenario to repeat, I came to see Miss Sailaja’s
dance performance with my own eyes
My heartfelt thanks to Mr. Balakrishna to have given me this luck as her mother
I’m that Balakrishna, Mrs. Madhavi spoke about
Either to say about me to the audience or to get an applaud from you all as an artist,
my mom passed away without seeing all this
My life had gone into darkness along with her exit and it ended
This Goddess brought me out from that state and gave me a rebirth
I’m a poor man who can’t give back anything in return for that
I convey my thanks to that great lady by exhibiting my art through Miss. Sailaja’s dance
