"My heart is getting ahead of me."
"I can't seem to control it."
"My heart is getting ahead of me."
My golden lotus. Hemnalini.
"My heart is getting ahead of me."
"I can't seem to control it."
"My heart is getting ahead of me."
"I have been awake for so many nights. What should I tell you?"
"My heart is getting ahead of me."
(VO)I checked out a new house in Koluntola just two days ago.
Three spacious rooms. Two verandahs.
Kitchen. Bathroom. And a courtyard as well.
You might have felt suffocated in my old house.
But this house is quite big. You will like it.
"The Koel sings on a branch."
"The koel's voice is as sweet as nectar."
I can say this although I don't know much about house decoration.
The room on the western side will be our study.
And my writing desk will be near the window.
And your piano towards the wall.
'But thinking of Grihaswamy's pocket..'
'..the piano wouldn't sound that sweet now.'
'Let us see what can be arranged for your music practice.'
"The Koel sings on a branch."
"The koel's voice is as sweet as nectar."
(VO)The name of the heaviest thing of our new house..
..is Rabindranath Thakur.
I have ordered all the copies of all his books that are out.
You can say that you don't believe as much as you want.
'But this is one Thakur who has turned into a staunch devotee.'
'And everyone knows this.'
'I am thinking of hiring a priest..'
'..who would worship God religiously.'
'And I am also thinking of coming over to your house..'
'..and talking to your father on your birthday.'
'Your poet could even make you elope with him..'
'..if I delay too much.'
'My heart was drifting in and out of sleep all night in your dreams.'
"My heart is getting ahead of me."
(Chuckles) (Camera Clicks)
"I can't seem to control it."
"My heart is getting ahead of me."
You are having a hearty chat with mother all alone, isn't it?
Chat. I am not chatting.
She is cursing me. - Why?
Why would she curse you for no reason?
This is real injustice.
You are 20 years old today.
If you had belonged to some other family..
..today you would have come to meet me with two kids in your lap.
I am very selfish.
I didn't think about your marriage..
..wondering who would give me medicines on time.
Why didn't you tell mother that there..
..should be someone to give you medicine?
Why did she leave you?
Then you wouldn't have had to stop your daughter.
I would have stopped if it was in my hands.
People gossip. Why don't you understand?
Never mind.
Come on. You haven't even changed, father.
I can't tell people that I have raised you differently.
I never discriminated between you and your brother.
Who is going to ask for an answer from you, father? - You.
Who knows some day you might feel..
..that my father didn't try for my marriage.
So you sit. Fight with mother. See you.
Listen. Listen.
Yes.
Whom have you decked up for?
Come on, father. Everyone's waiting.
Tell me. Do you have anyone in mind?
Yes. There is.
But you won't marry me into that family.
Why?
Who is he? Do I know him?
I know him.
Yes. You know.
Have I met him?
I know that you know him.
But I don't know if you have met him.
Come on, tell me.
Rabindranath Thakur.
Come on.
Why? His wife died 20 years ago.
His kids are grown up.
I will come with him on my next birthday..
..and seek your blessings.
Here. - Listen.
Shall I call Ramesh and talk to him today?
What will you say?
That he must fix a date.
Uncle Kishen, you?
What happened?
(Applause)
Ramesh hasn't come yet. - No. He hasn't.
I told him so many times to come on time.
She is such a careless person. Just a minute.
Panchanand.
Yes, Akshay.
You must have passed by Ramesh's house on your way here.
Yes. - Did you see any light in the house? - No.
But I guess the door was locked..
..when I saw from the horse carriage.
So he must be on the way. Come.
Okay. Shall we wait for some more time?
Actually, Ramesh has made all the arrangements.
He has ordered for the cake too.
There is no date written on the cake.
And as per Mr. Ramesh's habit. He might have forgotten.
No. That is not possible.
I couldn't figure out much from the distance.
It seemed there was an old man with him.
Somewhat poor.
It is possible he might set out to gather money..
..for some widow's marriage.
That is why there is no point in delaying too much.
Come, ma'am.
Happy birthday. - Thank you.
There is no one at home. It is locked.
The landlord said that he got some urgent news..
..from his family yesterday.
His father has called him.
Ramesh has gone to his native place.
Okay. See you.
It's okay. Okay.
Come.
Hey, why are you standing? Sit down.
How strange. You are our would be relative.
Marriage is not something new that you are so shocked.
I am bound to be shocked.
How can you think of getting me married to someone..
..without even discussing with me? (Pigeons Coo)
What do you mean by someone?
Ramesh, you have no right to insult her..
..because she is a poor man's daughter.
Her mother is sitting outside.
What if she hears?
You mean. The woman sitting outside.. - Yes.
There is no wedding date for the next three months.
There was no other option, so..
Why don't you understand, father? This can't happen.
You didn't tell me even once.
I did what I felt was right for you as your father.
I would've certainly told you if I would've felt the need.
Absurd.
There is no date for the next three months.
So I will have to marry in three days.
I can't do this, father.
(Pigeons Coo)
Ramesh, I have given her my word.
I have given my word to a poor helpless widow.
Do you hear me?
I have also promised someone.
What is her name?
Why?
I didn't ask the name of the girl you chose.
Her name is Sushila.
I have shown her horoscope.
She will bring good fortune.
She isn't educated but she is intelligent.
She knows the chores, cooking. Everything.
Since you live in Kolkata alone. She could take care of you.
And what if I tell you that I don't want..
..to marry an uneducated homely girl.
Talk softly, Ramesh.
Did I spend so much money and send you..
..to a college in Kolkata for this?
Darn it.
(Pigeons Coo)
I have promised someone, father.
I've told her that I will marry her.
And you've also given your word to someone..
..that I'll marry his daughter.
But this is my life.
And there is only one life.
That's why I'm giving more importance to my commitment.
I hope you'll understand.
I am going back to Kolkata. Bless me.
Wait, Ramesh.
Is your friend's sister an orphan?
No. Her mother is no more. But she has her father.
Is she poor? Is she helpless?
No. She has her house in Kolkata.
She is beautiful, educated. She sings also.
(Cuckoo sound)
You'll like her.
How can you be sure?
As far as I know you..
You know nothing. Nothing.
I also don't know you at all.
I was wrong in thinking that I know my son.
That I've the right to promise someone on his behalf.
(Pigeons Coo)
If I knew that he is not even ready to consider..
..a poor widow's daughter..
..for some girl's beauty and Kolkata's property.
Believe me, I would have never..
..made arrangements of this marriage, Ramesh.
Go, Ramesh. Take care.
But don't ever return to this house.
(VO) 'Dear Hem.. You were right.'
'My dilemma is my life.'
On sudden intimation of my father..
..I went to my native place and saw..
..that he has started making arrangements for my marriage..
..without intimating me.
'I stood by my decision in spite of knowing..'
'..that father would disown me if I say no to the wedding..'
'..only because of you.'
It is going to rain. Stay back, son.
Don't take offence. Hope this isn't rude?
Let him go, sister.
Sushila will get married next Monday. - No, brother.
Let him go.
Son, my daughter can't come into this house..
..by separating you, father and son.
I will poison her before that.
Just hear me out.
I guess your father has given me his word..
..without knowing anything.
But we have made almost all the arrangements..
..trusting his word.
Tell me. There are not many days to go for Monday, right?
All the arrangements are made.
This widow has spent all her savings..
..and has got her daughter ready to send to your family.
If this marriage is broken..
..we, daughter and mother will have to consume poison.
'Believe me, Hem.'
'I overlooked father's order.'
'But I couldn't turn down this unknown widow's request.'
'This dilemma just destroyed my vow.'
'The whole world kind of just blurred right before my eyes.'
'Everything seemed to be meaningless.'
The clouds have cleared.
Go home.
There is no need to stop the arrangements.
But you said you have promised someone.
She will feel bad for sure.
But you will not have to consume poison.
I will explain to her.
It started coming to my heart again and again.
Your conversations and your poems.
"I wonder where.."
"..my boat will stop."
"My boat."
"There are no banks in oceans."
"I wonder where my boat will stop."
"My boat."
"This is a new boat in the new waters."
"It goes ahead."
"It floats ahead."
"It is floating away in front of me."
"In all its playfulness."
"On the other side. On the river side."
"I wonder where my boat will stop."
"My boat."
"I was floating away in the tide."
"I was alone holding on to the oars."
"It was attached to boat."
"In the melodic and harmonic waves."
"I was happy in my own company."
"There were no clouds." (Crying)
"In the corner of the sky."
"The boat.."
"..will be seen in the garden of flowers."
"I was in that hope."
"My boat."
'Only your poet might know the terrible..'
'..storm the boat anchored at the shore must have faced.'
I didn't know.
'A dark ominous cloud in the form of a terrible storm..'
'..hit our boat in the evening.'
'Hem, only your face must have flashed..'
'..before my eyes before I was unconscious amidst the storm..'
'..the rains and all the yelling and chaos.'
'When my eyes opened after that terrible night..'
'..I found myself at a shore under the blue sky.'
Sushila.
Are you okay?
Stay here. I will go check.
Don't leave me.
Get up.
(Music Playing)
This is yours.
Aunt has said you have to keep this with you for seven days.
(V)O) 'It is said about a sea that it never takes anything away.'
'It returns it eventually.'
'This holds true for oceans too.'
'I came to know this for the first time.'
'But I have no hope of getting back what I have lost in this life..'
'..because of my dilemma and not because of the ocean.'
'I will start a new life with someone unknown from today.'
'It would be disrespecting our long relationship..'
'..if I don't tell you everything honestly..'
'..before I enter my new life.'
(Bell Tolling)
'Hem, I wonder whether this letter will reach you or not.
'I might get embroiled in that same dilemma of mine again.'
'Let me take care of that.'
'But I have let you know the entire details in my heart..'
'..and like an extremely selfish man..'
'..I am feeling very small for this entire time.'
'If you can, forgive me. Forever in love with you. Your Ramesh.'
Father, for what did you fight with mother since morning?
Or you didn't fight with her today at all?
I didn't get the time to fight.
Look, this case of the saint is making news out of the blue.
For no reason.
What did you say?
I said this case is sub-judicious.
We can't say anything so soon.
Father. - What's the matter?
Got a letter from Ina temple.
I've got the chance. - Wow.
Hem, this is great news.
Come. Come.
Where did the letter come from this early morning?
It came last evening.
I didn't want to seek father's blessings..
..by getting him stale sweets.
That's why I have got fresh 'Jalebis'(Sweet)..
..this morning as soon as the shop opened.
Here. Eat.
Seek mother's blessings, brother.
When are the classes going to start?
They are saying next month.
I will find out when the ships leaves.
I will have to leave in a while.
I have to buy the ticket as well.
Clear the barrister's exam and return soon. Got it?
I feel this fraud saint's case isn't going to end soon.
And if this happens, you too can get a..
..car, house everything riding on this case.
There is no reason to worry.
Really, father. You don't know your son.
You bet. When he returns..
The landlord took away which farmer's land on non payment of tax.
Which widow was betrayed by her family?
All the cases for free.
Moreover, people will get free legal advice.
He will put it down on a signboard and hang in front of the door.
And even fraud saints would show up..
..when they see that board, isn't it?
He will say, "I am a saint."
"I will not be able to give you money or anything."
"So why don't you fight my case for free?"
"And if you win, we'll share the kingdom equally."
"And what about the princess?"
(Laughing)
(Door Opens)
Come.
Give me.
"The day passed as if it's perturbed."
"The dusk is unfamiliar."
"Living past moments."
"Eyes are brimming with tears."
Is there no temple in the house?
You won't eat?
You eat first.
Have dinner and then go to sleep.
I will be late.
I have not opened my books since a long time.
What is this? Why didn't you drink milk?
Have it.
You drink it.
You have to use your brains so much.
If you don't drink milk, is it done?
Who told you that one has to drink milk to have a sharp mind?
Your aunt?
I know. I am not a doctor like you.
But I know this.
Who told you that I am a doctor?
My aunt told me.
I am a lawyer.
Do you know anything about law, court?
Lawyer.
Maybe I heard doctor mistakenly.
"Whether he existed or not."
"He will tell me when he comes."
'I always felt that law is not meant for you.'
'After reading your letter my doubt was confirmed.'
'A lawyer's job is to present evidences..'
'..and prove doubts as true.'
'Your belief that I might feel suffocated..'
'..in your old house is not true.'
'It can be a figment of your imagination.'
'It suits only a poet.'
'Not a lawyer.'
'Do you know?'
'After his marriage Mr. Rabindranath..'
'..was given the terrace room of his house.'
'From there he started a new life with his child bride.'
"Whether he existed or not."
"He will tell me when he comes."
"He will conjure from my dreams."
"This is what I feel."
"My heart is getting ahead of me."
'I can give a simple solution for the problem of my music practice.'
'In earlier times Rajputs wouldn't go personally to get married.'
'They would send their representatives.'
'The way Princess Komalika got married to the King's harp.'
'I am also thinking of sending my 'Turkish guitar'(Tanpura).'
'Put the garland around its neck.'
'As it is, along with me my 'Turkish guitar'..'
'..is also going to come to your house.'
'I won't come now with my 'Turkish guitar'.'
'Don't worry.'
'My 'Turkish guitar' and I, both are placid by nature.'
'We won't fight like rivals.'
"It is playing with dreams."
"Altering between slumber and wakefulness."
"My heart is getting ahead of me."
"Bind it."
(Sobbing)
You have still not gone to sleep?
I need all these things.
Will you get it from the market tomorrow?
A picture of Goddess Laxmi.
A brass idol of Bal Gopal.
Vessels for veneration. 'Batasha' (Sweets). 'Chirangi' (A type of nut).
Who wrote this?
I wrote it. Why?
Did I write something wrong?
You know how to read and write?
I had heard..
Not much.
My uncle had sent me to the village school.
I see.
But you don't join the letters 'K' and 'Kh' to write 'Sh'.
It's a single letter.
I will teach you tomorrow.
Has something happened to you?
No.
Something has surely happened.
Your exams are near.
So?
I would also cry quietly before my exams.
Go and sleep.
Remember to get these things tomorrow.
I will pray to God.
Just see. You will fare well in your exams.
"When I was a bachelor, I lived all alone."
"And I worked at the weaver's trade."
"And the only, only thing that I ever did wrong."
"Was to woo a fair, young maid."
Mokhoda? - Yes..
Who is playing the piano downstairs?
Mr. Akshay.
He came a long time ago.
He has brought so many red roses for you.
I see. - "That I ever did wrong."
"Was to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew."
Ask father whether he will have dinner now.
I will just ask him.
There is going to be a storm.
"She said what shall I do?"
"And the only thing I ever did wrong was to keep her.."
"..from the foggy, foggy dew."
Today, give a holiday to your Tansen, father.
(Wind Whooshing)
No. - It's not Tennyson.
It's a traditional English ballet.
I had heard that Tansen had sung 'Malhar' (A type of song)..
..in Akbar's royal court and brought down the rains.
But today, Mr. Akshay has shown that traditional English ballet..
..can also bring down the rains.
Mr. Akshay, hats off to you.
Now, go home. Otherwise..
..you will be stuck in the storm invoked by you.
(Thunder Rumbling)
Sushila.
Close the windows.
What is this?
The power went off.
A tree must have fallen somewhere.
Why do you call me Sushila?
Will my fate change if you change my name?
Will I become fortunate?
Why will I want to change your name?
I don't believe in luck and destiny.
I call you by the name that your parents gave you.
My name is Kamla.
My uncle had kept my name.
'Not because she is my daughter.' (Crying)
'Like her name Sushila her nature is also calm.'
'No matter how much you beat her, she won't complain.'
Why?
Uncle didn't tell you everything?
What?
I see.
He must have thought that after hearing everything..
..you might refuse.
What do you mean, after hearing everything?
I am unlucky since birth.
I was seven days old when my parents passed away.
My uncle raised me.
I was born on the day of Goddess Laxmi's veneration.
That's why my uncle named me Kamla.
Does it change anybody's luck?
Tell me.
What is your uncle's name?
Why?
Will you take this matter to the court?
I won't do anything.
I won't go anywhere.
Just tell me your uncle's name.
Mr. Paranicharan Bhattacharya.
His village and address?
Look at this.
You had come to marry me.
And you forgot the name of my village so soon.
'I admit that your father had fixed your marriage.'
'It doesn't mean that you won't even see your wedding card.'
'My only son Ramesh is getting married to a resident of Dobapukar..'
'Where is Dobapukar?'
Dobapukar and Sagardari are completely different places.
You just read fat books. That's it.
You don't remember anything.
That's why I am asking you.
Sagardari.
You must know the son of the Dutta family that lives in our village.
He is a famous poet.
Do I know him?
Who? Who is he?
He was thrown out of the house for embracing Christianity.
Michael Madhusudan Dutta. - Yes.
You said whatever you had to say.
Won't you hear me out?
I know.
What do you know?
What is my name?
Where is my house?
In Kashi.
I had heard the doctor mistakenly.
You corrected me.
And my name? - No.
How can I take your name?
Wait. I will write it.
I couldn't write it properly.
But you said you will teach me.
Good. Power is also back.
The storm wasn't so violent.
Give me.
But you didn't tell me one thing.
Instead of Kashi why did we come to Kolkata?
(Typewriter Clacking)
Ramesh.
How come you are here?
When did you come?
I found out that your father is no more.
You didn't think it important to inform me.
Have you thought about what you will do?
No.
Will you stay here for a few days?
I have heard that you have left your old house.
Where do you live now?
I have bought a new house.
Maybe you will feel better after taking a shower.
Shall I get the water heated?
No. I have to go home.
Sorry. Both of you had to take trouble because of me.
What has happened to you?
I told you.
Anything else?
What else?
I know nothing can alleviate your grief.
There is no cure for this grief.
But grief lessens if you share it.
Can one really share everything?
No.
Not completely.
Maybe a bit.
If you have faith and your viewpoint matches.
Do you have faith in me?
Okay.
Does love make a person selfish?
Do you know?
I had never been separated from my grandfather.
I thought I won't be able to endure it.
I felt bad.
When the ship was departing.. (Crying)
..my grandfather was standing on the deck and waving.
Father and I were wiping our tears.
Mr. Akshay couldn't understand what to say.
He was just repeating one thing.
"Don't worry."
How could I tell him?
I wasn't crying for my grandfather.
I was crying because..
..the person whom I needed the most at that time..
..he wasn't with me.
That's why I was crying.
Don't cry, Hem.
(Birds Chirping)
You?
When did you come?
Just now.
Why are you standing there? Sit.
Let me finish the veneration first.
After that, I will serve you lunch.
What are you looking at?
You.
Look at this. As if, I am somebody else's wife.
Go and sit down. I will serve food and call you.
Actually.. I have one more favor to ask.
Not another child widow, I hope.
Not exactly.
She is married.
But..
..we call them a grass widow.
That's what we call them.
Abandoned, is she? Dear me.
Sort of.
I need more details first.
Have you informed the police?
What about her relatives?
She is a relative of mine.
An orphan.
So you are the local guardian.
You have it.
Are you studying for the exams today as well?
Yes.
Will you tell me one thing honestly?
You didn't like me, did you?
Suddenly why are you asking about likes and dislikes?
You are very nice.
Shall I tell you something?
Yes.
I know.
Girls don't have the right to like or dislike someone.
But I like you a lot.
I was told that a doctor has come from the city.
He didn't see me or know me.
And he gave his consent for marriage.
I also thought it must be the mentality of an affluent man.
Maybe he also has his own world.
A woman(Istri).
You pronounced it wrongly. It's woman(Stri).
Yes. Exactly.
But when I came here, I realized that this is my world.
It's all mine.
Fine.
It's good.
Do one thing. Go to sleep.
I have to study.
Hem. Hem.
It's so strange.
At times you call me Sushila.
And now, you are calling me Hem.
I am Kamla.
Your wife(Istri).
Oh, no.
I made a mistake. Wife(Stri).
What are you doing here?
Give me. I will massage your head.
Let it be. I told you to go and sleep.
I said the right thing by mistake.
I am 'Istri' (Iron).
You get a jolt when I touch you.
(Yawning)
What's the matter?
So late in the night?
I wanted to say something to you.
Confidential.
Give it to me.
You go.
Tell me.
Is it something new?
Do I know?
Will you marry me, Hem?
Will you?
Hem.
Which question should I answer first?
Tell me.
You know the answer of the first question.
How can we get married now? I don't know.
If you know, tell me.
Do you believe in the nuptial rounds?
Hem.
My father believes in it.
My grandfather believes in it.
Our marriage doesn't involve only the two of us.
Fine.
Write to Jogin to return.
We have to fix the date as soon as possible.
Now, I don't want to wait anymore.
You can't get married for a year.
Before that.. - Who has decided whether the mourning period..
..will last for a year or six months, Hem?
Fine.
I thought you have forgotten.
If you say, I will talk to father tomorrow itself.
Is that so?
Won't you ask me the reason for this haste?
Why should I ask you?
If you had to tell me, you would have told me.
Do you trust me so much, Hem?
You know. That's why you came at midnight..
..to ask me to marry you, right?
Promise me.
No matter what anybody says to you. You..
What? - Anything. Whatever.
If you hear something about me..
..you won't believe it without hearing me out.
It means, there is something to talk about.
Wouldn't it have been better if you had told me personally?
I will tell you, Hem.
Give me some time.
I will tell you everything at the right time.
I need time for that.
This is not the right time.
(Laughing)
I had only heard about it.
Quick engagement, quick marriage.
I didn't know that the same thing is going to happen in my life.
That's why I like you so much.
You are very different.
You face every adversity with a smile.
Adversity?
Is marriage an adversity for you?
Go. Go home.
I will talk to father tomorrow morning.
"O my heart."
"You can't lose something if it was never yours."
"It's mere lines of an empty palm."
"Nothing is written."
"Neither the future."
"Nor the past."
"O my heart."
"You can't lose something if it was never yours."
Show me a sari for an aged woman.
Married or widow?
Married.
Along with that dhoti for her husband.
And 'Kurta'(Shirt).
And a nice shawl too.
For whom?
Show me that.
No. I..
You said you won't tell anybody now.
No. The gifts that are given during marriage.
Great! You know all this.
How many times have you got married covertly?
'Will you remember all this?'
'New veneration clothes for uncle and aunt.'
'Don't worry.'
'I will send everything for them.'
'During the first year of marriage you should give gifts personally.'
'Will it look good if you send it like that?'
Who are these people?
My.. distinct relatives.
"It's mere lines of an empty palm."
"Nothing is written."
"Neither the future."
"Nor the past."
"O my heart."
"You can't lose something if it was never yours."
What is it?
Give me your foot.
Why? - Wouldn't I take the measurement?
Give it, I have to give order for the shoes.
Keep the foot on the paper.
No. Let it be.
What are you doing?
I am going to school for some days. Should I not take blessings?
Why? Why would you do that?
I am not fortunate to be a married lady.
You could have kept me as a slave.
I am leaving.
Give me your hand.
No, let it be. - Why?
I will give it later.
Before marriage, you don't want to..
The day you don't feel so uncomfortable when I touch your feet..
..I will give my hand.
Father.
I was checking the guest list, Jogin.
Check it once.
Have I missed out any of your friends?
Father.. Akshay has come.
Good. Both of you check it once.
He wants to tell you something, father.
Akshay. Come in. Come.
Hem, Akshay told me..
..that a new girl has joined the school in which his sister studies.
She says..
..she is Ramesh's wife.
I told Jogin to go and see.
It's of no use, father.
I won't believe it.
Until he himself doesn't say it, I won't believe it.
Jogin.
Akshay. Come.
No. It's okay.
I want to ask you a question.
Do you know her, Ramesh?
How is she related to you?
Look closely. Is he your husband?
Come in, Kamla.
Jogin, do you still feel that Ramesh will tell Hem the truth?
You go and explain to your sister.
Well..
There is nothing wrong with her physically.
Perhaps, she is in mental shock.
But if she carries on like this it will affect her health.
She hasn't eaten anything since many days.
She didn't even drink a drop of water.
Dear. What do you want to do?
Dear. Feel like reading?
Want to listen to music?
I have heard you are interested in music.
Hem. Doctor uncle is asking you.
Do you want to listen to music?
You.. shouldn't have let them take her out, sister.
Sorry. Whose them?
And whose her?
You are not making any sense, Mr. Chaudhary.
Komali is supposed to be my wife and..
And everybody knows.
Supposed to be?
Is she or is she not?
It's a long story.
I do wish you hadn't allowed her out.
And now we have to leave this city.
There is no other option.
Don't you think you owe me an explanation, Mr. Chaudhary?
Yes, sister. I will..
I will explain.
You have another name? You didn't tell me.
They came to the school and asked do you know mister so and so..
..and I said no.
Then I recognized you when they showed me your photo.
Gather all the idols of God once you are done with your work.
They lie in a corner.
They don't have anything other than water and sugar crystals.
What harm have they caused you?
They haven't.
We won't be able to stay in Kolkata any longer, Kamla.
We will have to leave Kolkata.
You can take the idols wherever we go.
I won't say anything.
I know where we are going.
Where?
Kashi.
No, I haven't decided as yet.
But I am thinking of going towards the west.
I heard that your mother stays in Kashi.
Let's go there and seek her blessings.
We will see.
Then I think I should start making preparations.
Kamla..
Will you be able to stay as my wife forever?
I have spoken to Akshay. He is ready.
There is no need to change the date.
We will have to just reprint the invites.
Which invites?
Why? The invites for the wedding.
Whose wedding?
Who else's? I am not the one going to get married to Akshay.
Did you ask Hem?
Yes.
Did she say so?
No, she didn't say anything.
Then?
I have explained to her.
She has no objection.
She kept quiet.
Silence doesn't always mean consent, Jogin.
This is what the book of law states, father.
Silence is consent.
In that case, ask your teachers.
The girl who hasn't been able to speak..
..even one word for the last seven days..
..cannot chant the mantras of a marriage.
As far as I know..
..the bride has to only give consent in the church weddings.
The priest chants the mantras.
But in our Hindu weddings, the groom, bride and the priest have..
..to chant the mantras together.
Only then does the marriage become complete.
Do your English law school teachers know this?
In that case, what do you want, father?
Till the time Hem doesn't accept with her wish and happiness..
..and give consent..
..I wouldn't give consent for any marriage.
And I want to listen..
..to that consent from Hem herself.
How are we going?
Where?
Wherever we are going.
How are we going?
In a bullock-cart?
We will go in a train.
Like we came here.
Thank God.
Why?
I get very scared to step into a steamer.
Why?
You have traveled in a steamer earlier as well.
Right?
Yes.
But ever since that day..
..whenever I see a boat or a river..
Why do you need to get scared?
I am there with you.
My school is also at the banks of river Ganges.
One can see the river from the classroom window.
One day in the evening, dark clouds hovered in the sky.
A strong wind was blowing.
I saw out of the window..
All the boats in the river started wobbling.
The winds got stronger.
As if a storm was approaching.
After that..
..I don't remember anything.
What do you mean you don't remember?
When I regained consciousness..
..I saw that my face was completely wet.
They lifted me and made me sleep on the bench.
This is not right.
You fainted and you didn't even tell me.
They wanted to tell you but I told them not to.
Why?
Am I the only one who has the responsibility to tell?
I made a mistake, Kamla.
Trust me, I am not troubling you purposely.
You know how much work I have.
I don't get the time to ask about your wellbeing.
But won't you tell me even when you are in trouble?
Fine.
Henceforth, I take complete responsibility of your wellbeing.
I won't give you a chance to complain.
And the other thing important in your life?
It won't leave him.
Who?
Your education.
It's over, Kamla.
It's over? How?
It's an interesting test, Kamla.
I get one reward if I clear it and another if I don't.
Go and take a bath.
Did Jogin tell you anything?
About Akshay.
What did he say?
What he said is right.
Absolutely right.
Our family holds an honor.
Yours', brother's.
Our honor is not so delicate..
..that it will be shattered so easily.
But your heart is in a very delicate state.
I gave consent to brother, father.
Why did you give him consent?
All of you had to go through a lot because of me.
A lot of trouble.
Brother had to leave his studies in between.
Whatever brother did was right.
You won't say no, father.
I have never gone against you.
Hence, I fight with your mother everyday even now.
You told everything to mother?
Did you?
She knows.
What did she say?
She said, "Tell her on my behalf.."
"..that she should do whatever she feels like."
"There is no force or compulsion."
My heart isn't saying anything, father.
Neither yes nor no.
If that person is still in my heart..
..then it will be unjust for Akshay.
Tell that to brother. - I will.
Don't try to destroy the one in your heart forcefully.
You didn't fall in love on purpose.
Now it won't be easy to get him out of your heart, dear.
Then will I spend the rest of my life like this, father?
Life?
Life isn't that short, dear.
Life, time..
They go on for a long time.
But because they are just four-letter words..
..we sometimes consider them short.
Let life flow at its speed.
Let it go.
You will see, one day life will tell you..
..who should be in your heart.
(Crying)
This was just a year.
You can't measure your life with it, right?
Look here. Look at me.
You know geometry, right?
The parts are not equal to the whole.
Will you get me my 'Tanpura', father?
You.. you will sing?
"There are no boundaries.. for you."
"Keep on flowing."
"You have to keep on flowing."
"There is a lot of pain."
"Endure it."
"Keep on enduring it."
"There are no boundaries.. for you."
"Keep on flowing."
"You have to keep on flowing."
"There was no pain as long as you were there."
"My heart wasn't in such a bad shape."
"There was no pain as long as you were there."
"My heart wasn't in such a bad shape."
"When it wanted to be yours, I made it belong to you."
"I want it within myself inside my heart."
"There are no boundaries.. for you."
"Keep on flowing."
"You have to keep on flowing."
"I was incomplete, sitting at the shore."
"Sleep.."
(Crying)
"Don't shed tears."
"Don't shed tears over conversations."
"Through your eyes."
"Keep on saying this day and night."
"No one should see the fire within.."
"..when you blink."
"No one should see the fire within.."
"..when you blink."
"To have you."
"To touch you."
"Is like attaining salvation."
"There are no boundaries.. for you."
"Keep on flowing."
"You have to keep on flowing."
Where are you?
I am here.
What?
Our new house's address.
I got it. You are very clever.
Why?
The right name is Gorakshpur.
It isn't Gorakhpur.
If you are scared of conjoined letters.. Here.
I know how to write conjoined letters.
Look at this. Who wrote this?
You always hesitate to write them. I have noticed it.
You pronounce Lakshman as Lashman.
You pronounce Lakshmi as Lashmi.
This is what his name is.
He doesn't answer back when I call him Lakshman.
Try calling him that.
Why would he answer back when he is addressed by a wrong name?
He is always jumping around.
Try calling him Hanuman.
I am sure he will answer back.
You say just anything.
He is the one who goes and gets Bengali newspaper..
..for you from the station.
Not for me, for you.
He gets it so that you can read it.
And you don't even touch the newspaper.
You directly send it to Mukherjee's house.
Uncle Mukherjee doesn't get Bengali newspaper.
He reads a little.
What will I gain by reading it everyday.
The news of the world.
I don't want to know.
You know everything.
You can inform me.
Will I always be with you?
Okay, I won't say it again. Don't cry.
Why are you crying?
Okay, come here. Have the funnel-cake.
Come here.
Pronounce it properly. Funnel-cake.
(VO) 'My dear son, Jogin.'
'Hem is much better now.' (Camera Clicks)
'But she needs a little mental rest.'
'On doctor's advice, we have come to Kashi for a few days.'
'Until my physical and Hem's mental health doesn't improve..'
'..we have decided to stay here.'
'I hope your studies are going on well.'
'Take care.'
'Bless you.'
'Father.'
Keep the paper now.
I don't like it.
Let me finish this. The case has turned interesting now.
What is interesting?
This case of the sage.
The man cannot speak Bengali.
He speaks Hindi.
And yet..
Assume the case will go on for two more years.
And then, there will be a decision that she isn't the wife.
Then she will have to go back to her husband.
If she says at that time that he isn't her husband..
..the court wouldn't accept it.
And if it isn't abided by, it will amount to contempt of court.
There is punishment for that.
Father. Are you feeling unwell?
You are coughing.
It is nothing.
So shall we go home?
What if you catch cold because of the breeze of the river?
Wrap the shawl around you nicely.
(Coughing)
Kamla. Give food to me.
Kamla. Your keys.
Kamla.
You called me?
You want to play with them?
They call me.
You used to play in your maternal house?
No.
I had to help aunt when she was alone.
You want to meet your uncle and aunt?
Want to go there?
You don't want to go there?
You will send me back to my uncle and aunt?
Why will I send you alone? I will go with you.
I don't get a leave on 'Durga Pooja'(Indian Festival) here.'
But the court stays closed for 'Diwali'(Indian Festival).
Aunt..
Your nose ring.
Look..
I almost lost it.
You like jewelry?
Will you go with me to buy some?
You must be wanting something.
Tell me what do you want?
You won't send me away, will you?
No.
I won't.
Here are your keys.
(Coughing)
Has the cough been there for a long time?
If you don't take the medicines properly this time..
..then I will beat you.
Go.
This coughs been there since a long time, right? - Yes.
You didn't get it treated?
No. I mean I am taking the medicine.
What medicine?
Father treats himself.
He has a homeopathy box. It is his compounder.
Give your compounder a break.
It is in Kashi. Let it do some sightseeing.
It is to go to Somnath.
And you have this medicine..
..for a few days.
I will keep enquiring about your health.
Here you go.
Where are you staying?
Near Kodhulya..
My friend..
..has a house there.
Over there.
The first lane to the right.
Over there.
Oh, Annapurna Villa.
I know him.
And you? - I also stay here.
What do you want to know?
Whether I am a doctor or not?
Bye. See you.
Father.
This doctor knows everything.
Kamla, serve the meal. I have to leave.
Kamla.
Kamla..
Hey, move. Move away from here. Move! Go! Go away from here.
Kamla..
Lakshmi.
You have such high fever and you didn't even tell me.
Don't move.
Let me see it.
Oh my. 102 degrees.
I had realized it as soon as I touched her.
Aren't you shocked?
You won't budge from here today.
See that she takes complete bed rest.
I will take a leave and return home early today.
I will meet the doctor on the way while returning.
And I will bring the medicines too.
You think so much of me.
Then why did you send me to school?
Exile?
Who has written Sita's exile?
Vidyasagar.
We were supposed to be taught Shakuntala in the next class.
I came here.
If you come back soon today..
..will you read out Shakuntala for me?
All that difficult language and those words!
Will you be able to understand in a state of fever?
What is difficult?
It is a story of husband and wife.
That one.
King had forgotten his wife.
And then, on seeing the ring, he remembered everything.
Okay. I will read it.
Now close your eyes and sleep.
Have something. You didn't have anything since morning.
Don't bother me. I said I am not hungry.
Have some rice and curd.
You are on an empty stomach since morning.
What? Should I have rice with curd?
You are such a fool!
Come on, have food.
I won't be able to go to the kitchen.
All right. Don't go anywhere.
I will bring some food for you.
Will I eat on the bed? - It doesn't matter.
Didn't he find anyone else to guard me?
Bring an old newspaper.
Here. Eat it.
'I, Mr. Ramesh Chandra Chaudhary give this information..'
'..that the wife of resident of Varanasi..'
What happened?
'..Shri Nalinaksha Chattopadhyay..'
Have it.
'..Mrs. Kamla Devi is under my protection in Kolkata.'
'She is safe and sound.'
You go.
'If anyone has any information about Shri Nalinaksha Chattopadhyay..'
'..then please contact on the address given below.'
"I wonder where my boat will come to a halt."
"My boat is sailing on the shores but somewhere in the sea."
What's wrong, aunt? Won't you come?
Where?
You had promised that you will make my doll wear the sari.
Oh! - What's wrong with you?
Don't you remember today is my doll's wedding?
I am not feeling well.
Won't you come?
Take this necklace and give it to your doll.
Say that I have given it.
"Every boat has a destination, but my boat doesn't have any."
"During monsoon this paper boat searches for lanes."
"My boat.."
"My boat is sailing on the shores but somewhere in the sea."
"I was floating with the tide."
"I was alone holding on to the oars."
"The boat was tied to the anchor."
"On the melodic and harmonic waves."
"I was happy in my heart. There were no clouds in the sky."
"I was happy in my heart."
"There were no clouds in the sky."
"The boat would come to the garden of flowers."
"This was my hope."
"My boat. All of sudden, it drowned.." (Crying)
(Bell Tolling) (Conch Shell Sound)
(Crying)
No. Don't suppress your tears. Cry out.
Cry to your heart's content.
Cry till you like.
Then if you get a headache, I am here to cure it.
My name and address is written with your father.
Call me without any hesitation at midnight too if required.
I will take your leave now.
Okay, do you really believe that the boat..
..will reach the shore one day?
What's wrong with having hopes?
What should I call you?
Everyone addresses me as Dr. Bengali here.
You may call me as Nalinaksha.
My name is Nalinaksha Chattopadhyay.
(Door Opens)
Kamla?
Where had you been?
(Crying)
'I was about to drown in the river one day..
..I wonder how I reached at your feet.'
(VO) 'You gave me refuge. Gave me respect.'
'You gave me a world too.'
'But today I have come to know that all that was a lie.'
'I had told you that I am unfortunate since birth.'
'Whatever you may do, my destiny will never change.'
'I am returning back to the river from where I had come to you.'
'I have just troubled you since I have met you.'
'Forgive me if you can.'
'Lead a happy life. Take care.'
'May God bless you.'
'Seeking apology, yours Kamla.'
She was so endearing.
When she used to address me as aunt..
..I used to feel so happy.
We used to say..
..that you are such a lovely couple.
Just like the God and Goddess. The girl went away just like that.
(Crying)
Have a bite. You haven't had a morsel since morning.
Serve him water.
Shall I say something, son?
You had such a beautiful wife.
You didn't even maintain the relationship of husband and wife.
Perhaps the poor woman took such a fatal step agonized by it..
Let some days pass.
Call the priest and perform her funeral rites.
If possible then go to Kashi and solemnize her last rites too.
Your father too had an accidental death, right?
Then?
Accidental death brings misfortune.
You are educated. All of you are modern.
You don't believe in rules whatsoever.
Don't sleep alone for some days.
Call Laxman to stay with you.
No. I can't say anything till her fever comes down.
Her pulse rate is very slow.
Let the medicines show the effect first.
That is fine.
Did she tell her name or address?
No. We don't know anything.
Dear!
Dear, what is your name?
Where did you find her?
We don't know anything.
We were returning from the Kumbh fair.
This poor girl was lying unconscious on the shore.
She was having fever.
So we brought her in our boat.
Has any big accident taken place in your life? - Yes.
Did you ever receive any shock?
Both are completely different things.
An accident did take place but the wound was not deep.
It was better if it was.
Perhaps you are saying this because you didn't get.
So what should I do?
I am a doctor by profession.
I can treat myself.
So I want to get hurt too.
What's this? Will you treat yourself?
Why not? Charity begins at home.
Perhaps you know it.
There must be others in your family too.
Forget it.
Come on, let's return.
Are you alone at home?
No.
I have my mother.
Okay, who had named you?
Perhaps mother. I never asked.
And yours?
Father.
The partiality is clearly visible.
Brother's name was simple, Jogindra.
And mine.. Hemnalini.
The pain that you have..
(Birds Chirping)
..is because of a bad incident?
Does one get pain because of good incidents?
Now tell me.
Will you treat me?
No.
I don't like medicine all that much.
What do you love?
Singing?
There is no point of loving it.
There is no appreciation.
Meaning?
I had sung only one song that day.
I desired to sing a few more, but as you started crying..
I came to know that only the song won the laurels..
..no one even bothered to ask about the singer.
Why are they lighting those lamps?
It is some festival here today. A celebration.
I see. I want to go.
Want to go? Go.
Don't get scared.
I will not cry and create a scene.
(Cracker sound)
I think we should leave.
Your father must be getting worried.
Please wait. It is very dark here.
Be careful. You may trip.
You may hold my hand if you wish.
You can go ahead from here alone.
Why?
We have already walked six steps together.
Think once before taking the seventh step..
You are a doctor.
Do you believe in these things?
Don't you?
I don't believe.
Give me your hand.
You will have to change your name..
..if you want to spend your life with me.
What do you mean?
Nalinaksha and Hemnalini? It's impossible!
Why do you want to change my name after all?
Because often the name of girls are changed after marriage.
You will definitely shut down my profession as a doctor.
My certificates. The medical pads.
What about them?
Throw them in the dustbin. - And then?
Why don't you treat me?
You are so desperate to treat wounds.
I dedicate the rest of my life to you.
Let me see how you will treat me.
"The past moments have passed.."
"..every moment is passing again."
"The past moments have passed.."
"..every moment is passing again."
"Every moment is passing again."
"I have sought what I lost and found."
"O' heart, what have you lost which you never found?"
Son, listen to me.
How are you, son?
Did you recognize me?
I am Sushila's mother.
Do you remember Sushila?
Let it be.
So you still remember?
My daughter was really unfortunate.
She was not destined to get a good husband.
I had given birth to her after all.
The burden of an unmarried daughter is unbearable, son.
That's why I had pressurized her to marry.
But destiny had something else in store for her.
Now her memories are the support of the rest of my life.
(Crying)
That was not a wedding but a disaster.
They had brought her dead body after two days..
..and this mother kept on staring.
The villagers said that your daughter has already died..
..now call the goldsmith and get all her jewelry removed.
I said no.
I had been to your house too, son.
I heard the news about your father's demise on going there.
But I didn't get any news about you.
Today I have realized that my daughter was not only unfortunate..
..she didn't even get a wife's status.
For how long are you here?
Now I will stay here.
What is the point of going back to village?
Did you get married?
No.
Get married.
Will you remain a bachelor all your life?
A man is like a diamond ring.
There are no faults.
Nothing will happen.
Get married.
Who is this girl, mother?
Which girl?
I saw a new girl who was mopping the floor.
She is Sushila and not a girl.
You go and bring milk.
Whoever she is.
A new maid?
I had met Mr. Bholanath near the banks of Ganges.
He pleaded a lot.
Poor girl is helpless.
Her husband has deserted her.
So I brought her along.
Let her stay here.
The lentil is delectable.
Have you made it?
Listen, mother, learn to have food on the dining table now.
Why? If I won't learn, will your western wife come and scold me?
Mother, don't think even once that she will come and disregard you.
Even if she does, get her once.
If you want to eat something..
..just rest comfortably and make demands on her.
I want to eat this today.
I want to eat that tomorrow.
Why should I?
I cook for you. I will cook for her as well.
Oh yes. At times..
..she would like to make cake and pudding for you.
Then?
You said she is intelligent.
And she is educated.
Why would she want to make me eat eggs forcibly?
That is why I am saying. Get her here one day.
I will talk to her. Let us understand each other.
Have you cooked the cauliflower dish too?
It is very tasty.
Eat it if you like it.
Why are you asking so many questions?
Your wife has not cooked it.
If my wife really cooked it for you..
..and took the entire responsibility of serving you too..
..I would have been assured.
I know that Hem will prove a doted wife..
..but I wonder if she will prove a dutiful..
..daughter-in-law or not.
No girl marries any man to serve his mother, son.
Stop worrying about me.
You have decided to marry after a long time..
..so don't have any doubts.
I am unable to understand, mother.
What, son?
Should I have waited for some more days?
You did wait. For a complete year.
Today too during summer..
..when I sleep with the window ajar..
..then..
..at midnight..
..strong winds blow at river Ganges.
All the boats..
..start swaying fiercely.
Today too I can..
..hear her voice.
"Please don't leave me alone."
I didn't leave her alone, mother.
I was handling the other victims trapped in the storm.
Who knows..
..perhaps if I had not left her..
..I would have saved her.
Mother.
The new girl you have employed is educated? - Why?
Look. Someone is touching my books racks since some days.
In that case, maybe she cleans it.
She is a nice girl.
'Jogin. I hope you are fine.'
'I want to give you good news.'
'Hem's marriage has been fixed on a short notice.'
'The boy is a doctor.'
'They are Bengali's residing in Kashi.'
'The boy is suitable for Hem in every aspect.'
'I am unable fix the alliance without informing you.'
'Do send me your suggestion after you receive this letter.'
'My blessings are with you.'
'Your father.'
Father. He's here.
You haven't begun the morning discourses yet.
"Whether he was real or not."
"He will say once he is here." - Father.
"In my sleep or whether I am awake."
"What shall I say to you?"
"I try to tie it down."
"In my heart."
"My heart races ahead."
"I try to tie it down."
What is the point of all this now, Hem?
All the arrangements have been made.
His mother has fixed the engagement date as well.
Forgive me, father.
I cannot do it.
Just saying "I cannot do it" won't solve this problem, Hem.
They didn't make any mistake.
Nor have they been unfair.
You aren't getting married against your will.
And when you were I was the one who stopped it.
That is why I trust you so much.
You will understand.
Today you are going to hurt that boy..
..because Ramesh has returned.
Remember the state of your heart..
..when he suddenly left you one day.
Try to remember that.
You have to go once to come back again.
He didn't leave, father.
He didn't leave?
Then where was he?
He was lost.
And we all thought that he had left.
And we didn't try to inquire about him.. - Fine, fine.
Accepted.
But think about it once.
What will be Nalin's condition, and his mother's..
..what will she think?
We came here only for a holiday..
..and we will also leave after a few days.
But they stay here, Hem.
Fine, then I will go to his mother myself.
I will go and explain everything to her.
But let me take my life's decision today, father.
Father.
Just support me.
Watch, I won't humiliate you.
Father.
(Glass Shatters)
Viju.
Yes. - Listen.
Why does this new girl keep coming to my room?
Does she? I don't know. - Yes.
She touches my belongings.
She touches my books.
Look, she even broke my photo.
Oh, my.
The glass is scattered on the floor.
I will clean it.
Bring my watch. I had forgotten it.
Okay.
It's so foggy.
I thought you won't come. Come.
The river was foggy as well.
I was scared that I might run into a storm.
I am really scared of storms.
It was a stormy night when Vasudev crossed the river..
..and took Lord Krishna to Vrindavan.
Come.
Even Vidyasagar crossed the Damodar river..
..on a similar stormy night.
To follow his mother's orders.
Even my mother set out to get a daughter-in-law for me, Hem.
He didn't know that she would face such a storm.
The sky was clear.
Suddenly there were black clouds.
There was uproar in the river.
The boat, wedding guests, musicians.
Everyone drowned.
With the grace of Lord Vishwanath..
..my son swam to the shores.
But we couldn't find the bride.
We tried our best to find her.
But she was nowhere to be found.
Yes, my son did get married a year ago.
I don't know whether he told you or not.
But I told you.
Now the decision is yours.
I could have used this as an excuse..
..and left without saying anything.
But that wouldn't have been right.
Today I am here to tell you that..
..I cannot go ahead with this marriage.
Why?
Some other reason?
Yes.
I brought you here to tell you that.
But don't blame yourself.
Why?
Don't you like Nalin? - Yes, I do.
Then?
I won't stop you for anything, Hem.
I know, but that's not it.
I won't be able to tell you everything..
..that is why I.. wrote this letter.
Please read it.
I actually wrote it for your son.
But you can read it.
Just because I am Nalin's mother..
..you thought I am highly educated as well.
I didn't study much, dear.
You read it.
(VO) Dear Nalinaksha..
"There might be a difference between wound and injury."
"I am not a doctor like you.."
"..maybe that's why I thought they both are one."
"You should've explained you."
"You yearned to heal my injury."
"And I encouraged you to treat me."
"When the treatment was complete I realized.."
"..the injury was healed."
On recovery..
..I understood that I was confused and was habituated.
My pain was so deeply rooted by then..
..that to drive it away was causing loneliness.
"But the wound was inflicted so deeply in my heart.."
"..that if I had tried to cure it then.."
"..suddenly there would've been a void in my heart."
"If someone wants to leave his wound untreated..
..then he will have to endure the pain."
"I don't want you to feel that pain as well."
"Just grant me a small permission."
"Anytime, whether I need you or not.."
"..if I want to keep my friendship with you intact.."
"..under the pretext of my treatment then don't refuse."
"I never apologized to anyone today."
"I never had to."
"But for the first time I am doing so."
"To you."
"I do realize how it feels to live with the pain."
"But now I will have to learn how to live after apologizing."
"My life is a wait."
"I hope that one day I will reach the shores as well."
"With best wishes for that day."
"Yours, rueful."
"Hemnalini."
(Crying)
Don't cry, mother.
Mother, serve the food.
I am hungry.
Come. Come with me.
Look, sir, she went in your room again.
Why? Didn't you?
I went there to keep the lamp.
I told you not to go inside the master's room.
Fine, leave her.
Vijay will do all my chores.
No one else has to do it.
No, no, sir. She was taking something along.
- She hid it when I saw it. - What do you mean "She hid it"?
Yes, ma'am, she has tied it in her veil.
She doesn't want to show it.
What have you tied in your veil?
No. No. No.
What happened?
Mother is asking you something? Answer her.
I asked her so many times, ma'am.
But she doesn't answer.
Listen, if it is something belonging to you..
..then we won't see it.
We don't want to see it.
But if that thing belongs to my son then.. - Forgive me, ma'am.
Don't force me.
I cannot show.
What is tied in your veil?
Is it something belonging to my son?
(Crying)
If not then say no.
Why are you scared?
No one's forcing you.
For the sake of your long lost husband.
Don't lie, Shushila.
Viju, take a look what's tied in her veil. - Give it. Give it.
Give it to me. Give it to me.
Ma'am is saying so. - No.
Come.
Kamla.
Ramesh is here.
She has had fever for the past two days.
Can you talk to him?
Ask him to sit.
Go.
(Coughing)
Water.
You had fever even the last time.
Seems like.. seems like just yesterday.
Why did you come here?
I gave you an imaginary life.
That is why I came here to return you your real life.
When I came here I saw that you already had one.
What is real and what is fake, do you know?
We can have that discussion some other time.
Take rest.
Who cooks for you?
Who used to do it when you were in school?
You knew so many people in Kolkata.
You don't know many people here.
Don't think too much, Kamla.
Whether the world is real or fake..
..there will always be problems.
Don't think so much.
Does God really do everything for the best?
You know I don't believe in God.
A poet in your village had said something..
..which is the biggest truth.
"Life is a river once it flows away, it doesn't return."
If I want to touch your feet today..
..will you refuse me?
I won't.
You have fever, don't get up.
You do remember the Gorakhpur address, don't you?
You can write to me.
Don't be scared, I won't find faults in it.
Writing your name is very easy.
Can I leave now?
You have to travel very far.
I will get you some sherbet.
Viju.
Come.
Go inside.
She is waiting for you.
