Pre Independence India.
Maharashtra was in the forefront of the freedom struggle
This tiny village in Maharashtra from that era.
Sambalgadh
The village was like any other village.
The people were like any other village folk.
With dreams of Independence in their eyes,
they hoped for a better future.
The fight for independence was being fought everywhere from..
...the south to the north.
This is a story of Sambalgad in those times.
Not only did it join the crossroads,
but it also brought together men from all walks of life...
... this is Hari chowk
Why did the British ever build a statue of some William reading a book?
Even the villagers of Sambalgadh had no idea.
But this William stands here reading his book come rain or sun.
This Hari Chowk determined the direction of Sambalgadh's fight for freedom.
To bring the dream of independence into reality,
a man would dream of it all day.
That was...
Wamanrao Ashtaputre. - Our nation, Our right... India ... India.
Our life, Our Goal... India ... India.
Our nation, Our right... India ... India.
Our life, Our Goal... India ... India.
Our nation, Our right... India ... India.
Throw the ball.
Long Live India!
Our life,
Wamanrao... Wamanrao... throw the ball.
They are running.
Wamanrao listen to me they're running.
Bhatkhande! Ask that imbecile to throw the ball. They are running.
Throw it.
Come here!
Wasn't me. He threw the ball.
What did you do?
We lost the match because of you.
One ball. Six runs can be scored in one ball.
But you let them score 8 runs. That too running!
Idiot... Daydreamer.
Now don't look at me. Get lost.
Get lost. You...
I tell you, this is the job of the Jai Hind Movement.
Madhavrao Sanzgiri he's their leader.
This is what happened last time as well.
This is their plot.
Wamanrao! - I know him very well.
Ashtaputre!
Wamanya!
Come here.
- Yes.
I heard you lost a match again today!
It's the Englishman's game. Why do you scrape your knees?
Sahib stands with a plank in his hand and you run after the ball.
Trying to hold yourself together
Does it deem fit for the son of the Ashtaputre family, to play this game?
Just give me the candy.
You lose the match and flare up on us!
Listen Ghaykute, your Sahib will have to soon pack his bags.
Let that be, but there's been a dacoity in Dapoli yesterday.
Who did it?
I.
Uhh!
Who do you think?
This has to be our Jai Hind Movement.
That fills you with pride doesn't it?
Sahib will crush your Jai Hind Movement like a bug.
He's not going to pack his bags just as yet.
Will committing robberies lead us to freedom?
Even if we did win our independence, but then who's going to rule?
The dacoits?
You run after the Sahib's ball. Run.
And you go back to selling your groceries.
He is trying to teach me.
Psst. Come here.
One Kranti Surya
So Ashtaputre!
One Daily India.
How are you Murkute?
How do you do? - Fine.
I'm keeping an eye on you.
Lord Mountbatten....
Dacoity in Dapoli!
Our life, Our goal... India... India.
Our dream.. Our right..
India... India.
You dim-wit William. How long will you harass us?
In the field your Sahib said "Go..Go" to me!
But I'm going to make you GO!
From my Sambalgadh... no from my country.
What are you smiling at?
You'll break down in front of us.
You'll mourn.
No you will wail... you'll be wailing.
There's been a dacoity.
By the Jai Hind Movement!
Now what will you do?
Come on tell me.
Ashtaputre! ... Ashtaputre!
Namaste Mr. Bhosale.
How do you do?
Here. Have some sweets.
Do give some to Bharat as well. - Sure.
There's going to be a murder tonight.
Who?
Don't worry.
Keechak is going to be killed. It's a play.
Do come to watch it.
Sure.
Keechak!
When Saturn returns to it's own place, there's bound to be problems!
I know Shyamrao, what stars you're looking at.
I'm the Saturn in my own house!
And you have encroached upon my abode, what about that?
Your stars weren't right at that time.
I see.
Your stars didn't shine upon your house!
You can't buy a fortune, but you sold half your house.
That too is falling to pieces.
I am like our country.
I wonder what lies in my future.
Rats and moles.
I don't know about the nation,
but if you take this sack of rice inside, your house wont' fall apart.
Do you read a man's daily activities in the stars Shyamrao?
Or... is it all according to your convenience?
Ashtaputre, rats and moles will eat your grain;
you don't need an astrologer to tell you that.
Rats and moles have a field day every night.
I don't know about you,
but it seems like the rats have hit a jackpot!
I am quite intrigued by these underground animals.
There's a lot to learn from them.
When I have some free time, I shall teach you Shyamrao.
It's not that easy. You carry on.
Bharat !
Mother! Father is here.
Someone should predict Shyamrao's future.
You've grown up but you still play with such toys?
Did you pay your respect to them after coming home from school?
Bharat what did I ask you?
Did you pay your respect to them after coming home from school?
No
Get up. Get up.
Pay your respect.
How many times have I told you?
Before you leave and after entering the house, you must bow down to them.
You know, when I was your age, I too had forgotten one day.
My father ... your grandfather...
yes him..
Spanked me with a wet cane.
And what good did that do?
You spend half your life bowing down to these portraits.
They have all gone. But they didn't just go.
Now they are eating up all the space on our walls.
And left this sword, hanging on our heads.
Rukmini don't you dare say anything against my forefathers.
This sword has vanquished many an enemy.
Year 1674,
the battle of Kondhana, Uday Bhanu charged against us.
That is when..
Balkoba Ashtaputre... and so it begins...
Year 1700, Aurangzeb was on his deathbed, when...
Balakram Ashtaputre ... Enough now.
Year 1721... Balaji Peshwe...
Destroyed the Mughal throne.
Very good.
Year 1751... Balaji Bajirao held the Maratha Den.
He used to play hide and seek.
Not in a game...
He was the leader of our people.
The despicable Mughals..
..along with the French charged upon Pune from all four sides.
In that Grand Battle the man beside Balaji was
Your great grandfather Chimnaji Ashtaputre.
He landed the first blow on Lord Louis or phooey.
I know everything by heart.
I haven't said my prayers as much.
The Ashtaputre heritage is indeed so rich!
Is it?
So where are the riches now?
Where is it all gone?
The eighth generation of the mighty Ashtaputres eat Rice and Daal ...
...and snore away to glory
No.
We are going to be witnesses to something tonight.
Now what is that all about?
As witness? At night? What does the judge do all day?
Not as witness in court Rukme.
Then? - Tonight we're going...
... to watch a play.
Really?
Father! Which play?
Keechak Vadh
You mean the killing of Keechak?
Should I carry my bow and arrow?
My dear, it's a play.
Keechak was killed by Bheema; not the audience.
And you can't kill Keechak with an arrow.
Bheema beheaded him and broke his limbs.
Mother I'll go tell Chingi.
No not yet, hang on.
When do we leave?
Around 7...
Wear your Paithani (silk saree).
The one in peacock blue.
Oh dear...
You look so pretty today.
You stay here. Let me get the tickets.
Namaste,
Namaste.
I'm Wamanrao Ashtaputre. I want 3 tickets.
On our way here the lantern broke and the bulls ran away.
So?
Never mind just give me the tickets.
I'll fix the lantern but don't ask for tickets.
But... even the back row will do...
You brought along your bow and arrow didn't you.
You got the seats in the front didn't you?
Never mind the back row will do.
No... I told them the lantern broke...
What lantern?
The tickets are all sold out.
What?
I'm all dressed up after so long...
Please don't cry.
You can't do a single thing right.
Why didn't you buy the tickets instead of going on about your forefathers?
Why do you drag my forefathers in this?
Had you dressed up on time...?
So you mean I'm responsible for being late?
Mother... why are you hitting me? - Alright... now don't create a scene here.
Let me try again.
Over there.
That man sitting over there has left.
Namaste Murkute.
Wamanrao! You're here!
All by yourself? Didn't you get your family along with you?
Yes they are here.
I just...
Just?
You know... the tickets are all sold out. Bhatkhande!
Tickets?
Please may I...
There's no room for even an ant to get in.
Don't you see?
Our Sahib is going to be here.
Get back.
Sir!
Oh great!
That's great..
..you just said even an ant can't go in. Then how could these bugs get in?
That's all you'll do for a life time.
How does the Sahib get seats in there?
But you won't let us in.
You are all slaves. Nothing but slaves.
No, listen to me...
Once I kill Arjun with my arrow,
I shall drag Yudhishthir by his hair and...
Let's go home.
You won't get us anywhere. You stop crying.
Arjun! ... Beware!
Don't cry... let's go.
He has the qualities of all the five Pandavas.
I was lucky he wasn't present at Draupadi Swayamvar.
Nakul Sahdev...
Nakul Sahdev... if they promise to dress up as women..
..and serve as my chambermaids only then shall I let them live.
Go on pull the trigger.
Pull the trigger.
Wamanya pull the trigger.
Please see who's at the door.
What's the matter? - You're still sleeping?
The eclipse of Sambalgadh is lifted.
What? - Narsimha has killed Hiranyakashyapu.
What's the matter? Who killed whom?
You had been to the play isn't it?
Yes we did. What about it?
Then how can you not know?
About what?
Samson was shot last night in the theatre.
What's wrong with Mr. Ashtaputre?
Because you've given him such shocking news.
But I guess it's all for the best.
I'm glad we missed the play.
What do you mean?
We went to watch the play. We didn't get any tickets.
So we came home empty handed.
So you never saw the play?
No. - That's not important.
Samson being killed is important.
That brute deserved it.
Bring me some tea
We missed the play thanks to him.
So the eclipse has finally lifted.
Many a times while the eclipse lifts it's considered a bad omen.
Hope we don't get out of the frying pan and into the fire.
Bitter petty sarcasm...
What did you say?
May you lose all your teeth.
Samson!
The best person to hatch a plan is Madhavrao.
How he gets such accurate information is beyond me.
You're right! Apparently this Samson came for the play at the last moment.
But till evening nobody even from his own office had a clue that he would come.
Is it? - Yes...
I wonder how Madhavrao got to know...
And he had it all planned within an hour...
Nothing is beyond him.
Yes, you said it.
Long Live India!
Please do sit.
Devendra, Ganu, Rajaram and Divakar;
Madhavrao has congratulated all of us.
And he has sent this letter for us.
"It was about time for Samson to be sent to hell.
Its soldiers like you that have made our Jai Hind Movement so strong.
Our presence of mind and courage will soon lead us to our freedom.
But we must be careful.
I have just been told that another cruel officer is going to replace Samson.
The telegram must have reached by now.
But we're focused on our goal.
No matter how cruel the officer; he will meet the same fate.
Long Live India!"
Long Live India!
(Singing to himself)
Waman make way.
Move aside.
Yes
Waman make way.
Waman, stop!
Waman didn't you hear me?
I kept on screaming for you to move aside.
Sahib is on his way. Have you gone deaf?
Just because you drive Sahib's car doesn't mean you own the streets.
Get it? Murkute!
All of you are just slaves.
Wamanya! - Wamanya!?
How dare you call Wamanrao Ashtaputre 'Wamanya'!
Do you know whom you are speaking to?
Stay in your limit Murkute.
When the enemy crossed the border into our land; Balkoba Ashatputre...
Very good morning Sir!
Very... Good evening... Good mor... Sir...
Good ... Myself Wamanrao Ashatputre...
I'm a native of this place...
Welcome to my native place Sambalgadh...
I... I... I've never seen a ... more a ... ah... graceful officer than you sir ...
It is my pleasure sir...
I... read daily Daily India sir...
Daily India daily sir... Um...
I wish to visit Great Britain Sir.
It is my humble... "gulab" Sir...
Uhh rose...rose.
I plucked it from my behind Sir.
I wish to visit the queen ... For you sir.
You are... oh he threw it away...
very fair Sir... In entire of Maharashtra...
What is that?
That's Bhosale's mansion Sir. The heirs of Sambalgadh.
They stay in there.
I like it. I wish to stay there.
But Sir ... everything is ready for you at the Viceroy's bungalow.
I want this one.
Make sure it happens.
Rana, let's go.
Scott wanted the Bhosale mansion for himself from the moment..
he lay eyes upon it.
He decided to strike at the roots of the Jai Hind Movement from this mansion.
Make arrangements for the right kind of servants.
I think I'm going to be here for a while.
This is what I want. Follow me.
Rana let's go.
Yes sir.
You... stop right there.
Come on let's go.
Hmm... Hang on
Sir this is Mr. Bhosale.
And this Tatu. This is their mansion.
I like your house. I will stay here.
What did he just say, Murkute?
Sahib likes this mansion.
He wants to stay here.
How could he!
Get out!
Hey you ...
Let go of me... let go.
Please don't do that Sir.
Sir those are my gods.
Please let me take my gods with me.
Please give me back my chest.
I promise I'll leave.
What did he say?
Sir he wants his box and Gods back.
Nothing... You will get nothing.
Throw them out immediately. All of them.
Hey. Don't just stand there. Come on get lost.
You...
What are you doing?
Listen to me. Tatu... Tatu.
Come on out of here, everybody.
Your line of fortune can never be longer than your own palm.
And the lifeline can't win against it.
Uh?
Hello Ashtaputre! How are you?
Hey, idiot.
Ashtaputre... How are you?
...what are you doing, idiot?
Do you have buttons for eyes?
Idiot!
Do you know every moving vehicle has an important part?
Which one Sir? - Brake... you fool brake.
This one has two of them.
Then use at least one of them. Don't you get it?
I did Sir.
If you did then, then how could you crash into me?
You need to apply the brakes before the accident idiot.
Come on now get in.
He has buttons for eyes.
I'll whack you.
Welcome to Sambalgadh Police Station Sir.
Sir!
So, this is Sambalgad.
दिनकरराव, सॅमसनला कोणी मारलं?
Samson...we're investigating Sir.
Who are these peoples?
They are rebels Sir.
Jai Hind Movement?
Yes sir. Madhavrao Sanzgiri started this movement.
कोण माधवराव?
We don't know Sir. Nobody has seen him.
Sir he says no one has seen him.
अदृश्य आहे का तो?
राणा, मला तो अदृश्य माणूस बघायचा आहे.
Yes Sir.
Ashtaputre!
What's the point of slitting his throat in the photograph?
I was just trying to think of how to actually do it.
Ashtaputre...Why are you getting so violent today?
Oh... Nothing at all.
Something's happened for sure.
Uh?
What is the matter?
Nothing. On my way here... I got into a scuffle.
A scuffle?
With whom?
With General Scott.
Yes, it's true.
Apparently he is taking charge of his post today.
And the moment he stepped foot in Sambalgadh whom did he run into?
ME!
Is it? So?
So... I gave him a piece of my mind?
What? Are you serious?
Yeah.
Then what did he say?
What could he say; he couldn't say anything to me.
But how did that happen?
Why did he cross your path at all?
You see Bhatkhande, I was on my way to office on my cycle.
And along came Scott with his entourage.
And then?
Patience my friend I will tell you everything.
So, Murkute began yelling at me, "Wamanya!
Wamanya! ... Have you gone blind? Get out of our way!
Let the Sahib's car pass, move aside"
I said to him, "Sahib can go back to England...
I won't move."
I took Murkute to charge. They are nothing but slaves."
When I refused to budge... the General himself stepped out.
Fairer than snow; but he isn't tall or Well built at all. He must be as tall as I.
No, that can't be true.
I'm sure you must be terribly scared.
Hey Kisnya... historic heritage, and the blood of brave soldiers...
runs through my veins.
My great great great great grandfather...
Who?
Balkoba Ashtaputre!
Year 1663, the April sun was shining bright.
Shaistekhan had captured Lal Mahal, the mansion where Maharaj (Shivaji) spent..
.. his childhood!
Maratha troops were banned from entering Pune.
Khan had a 150000 strong army.
Maharaj had barely 300-350 men.
Maharaj's childhood friend,
Chimnaji Deshpande went to Lal Mahal as his bodyguard.
Netaji Palkar and Babaji Deshpande went along with them.
Maharaj's soldiers are alert.
Khan was sleeping in his chambers.
Maharaj entered his chambers.
Khan woke up.
Maharaj drew his sword. - "Ya Allah!"
Khan fled... Maharaj followed him.
Khan was about to jump out the window when Maharaj attacked him...
And Khan ran away leaving behind three severed fingers.
Ashtaputre...
What about this story?
What did Balkoba Ashtaputre do?
Good! I was checking whether you were paying attention to my story!
So, my great great great great grandfather, Balkoba Ashtaputre...
So the story begins now?
Ashtaputre I left behind my parcel in your Lal Mahal.
Patience my friends.
Maharaj went through so much for us but you want everything in a jiffy!
So, come, step up.
So,
when Maharaj entered the Lal Mahal he did not have a sword with him.
Uh?
Yeah...
Of course he couldn't carry the sword.
Khan's army would have been suspicious.
So where did he get the sword when he attacked Khan?
Tell me? How did he get it?
Tell me.
From Balkoba Ashtaputre!
My forefather was a loyal soldier.
Look! He was already inside Lal Mahal.
"Maharaj!"
This way.
And then the sword blessed by our beloved Maharaj,
was gifted to Balkoba Ashtaputre!
Hail Lord Shiva!
That sword still hangs from the walls of our house.
If I had to, I could show our entire Sambalgadh how glorious that sword is..
..Scott beware!
You fool!
Idiot, what have you done?
I dare you to come with me and show Scott the power of your sword.
Ashtaputre!
I want to tell you something.
Go on.
The wind is a dangerous thing.
What?
Words fly in the wind.
Be careful.
You said a bit too much about Scott in there.
Huh. I'm not scared of him.
1751...!
I know ... I know. You're indeed very brave.
But Ashtaputre you just say these things, but others don't take it so lightly.
They make a mountain out of a mole hill.
Scott is a cruel officer,
It's better to leave him alone. I am saying this as your friend.
Better be careful and stay away from him.
If that 6ft 5" Scott comes after you...
Your lungs will run out of steam pedalling the cycle.
So be careful.
Ashtaputre.
I have great news for you.
We're playing a cricket match day after tomorrow.
That's great!
Against Scott's team.
There'll be two teams of eight players each.
But unfortunately I have only 7 players.
I have no choice. I'll have to include you.
So It's my humble request.
So It's my humble request. Please play like a cricketer and not like a moron.
Can you do that?
Good.
Come on Bhatkhande. - Let's go.
Oh so we have rice and dal again!
Have you seen your son's exam result!
Why? What's the matter?
50% in all subjects ... but in History gone down the drain.
What do you mean gone down the drain?
He has failed in History.
Bharat has failed in history!
Yes!
In History!
Bharat! - Please finish eating...
History is more important than your rice and daal.
Bharat!
Where is he?
How could you fail History?
He already has what's the point in asking him now?
You stay out of this.
Answer me Bharat... Answer me!
Our family has such historic heritage.
Our forefathers were a part of many historical events. And you...
What is so difficult?
How did this happen? What is the problem?
There are just so many people in it.
How many do you want?
You fool, history is not made by a handful of men.
Come here..
That hurts father...
Look at all our forefathers.
But each one has done something.
Is that your problem?
Each one has done something and that's why they are a part of history.
But how can I remember everything?
Which lesson are they teaching in school now?
It's about someone's wedding.
Wedding?
What has that go to do with history? Whose wedding?
Umm... I guess... Kondana's.
It's not Kondana..
Kondhana. It's the name of a fort.
They are teaching you about Tanaji.
I'll teach you all about it.
All about the wedding of Kondhana.
Tatu!
Good night!
His stars didn't agree tonight.
It was a bad time for him.
Stop with your stars, time and astrology.
Rather not say anything about things you don't know.
Just imagine what'll happen when Madhavrao finds out.
Where is Madhavrao?
How come he's never around at times like these?
Why doesn't he show himself... - He will... he will.
He'll surely hear of this. I'm sure.
Rana, throw him out and get rid of these people as well.
What's going on here? Show's over. Now get lost.
Get them out of here.
Come what may...
Madhavrao needs to hear about this...
What should I do?
I don't get it...
Prays
Long Live India!
Wamanrao!
Namaste!
I was just thinking of you Madhavrao.
What is it?
Don't you see Madhavrao... this Scott is torturing everyone.
He took away Bhosale's mansion...
And now he has killed Tatu!
Something needs to be done Madhavrao...
Scott needs to be taught a lesson.
I must do something.
So what do you think you should do?
Draw the sword hanging on the wall of my house and behead this tyrant!
Not at all.
The bigger the enemy the more difficult it is to reach him.
Remember how Maharaj defeated every big enemy?... Guerrilla tactics.
Don't underestimate the enemy...
Recognize his power.
You should be able to attack the enemy from as far as possible.
I don't get it Madhavrao.
Please guide me like Lord Krishna guided Arjun.
This your weapon. Use it.
Bomb!
Yes a bomb.
Aim at the enemy and hurl this at him.
Long Live India!
Come Shiva! ... Come hug me!
I am going to rip your belly with tiger claws (Shivaji's weapon)
Scott! Let go
Hey Idiot...
Where did Afzal Khan disappear?
Well done Ashtaputre...
We won the match thanks to you.
We won!
Thank you.
Well done... Just a minute I have something for you.
Here you are. Two rupees!
Okay... Shall we?
Okay...
"The night has passed."
"And the dawn is here."
Ashtaputre...
"The fireflies have gone back home." - It's Wamanrao! Come on.
Hey, Waman!
"The night has passed."
"And the dawn is here."
"And we celebrate."
"The darkness is vanquished by the sun."
"And we celebrate HIS victory."
"Everyone hails HIM"
"as if HIS exile has ended and Lord Ram is back home in Ayodhya."
"He's the rising star of India"
"He's the father of the people"
"The one and only Ram!"
"He's the rising star of India"
"He's the father of the people"
"The one and only Ram!"
"Conqueror of the world"
"HE's full of compassion"
"HE serves justice to all"
"HE sculpts our fate"
"Shree Ram!"
"HE has vanquished all the demons and served the purpose of his life"
"is what people say"
"As if HIS exile has ended and Lord Ram is back home in Ayodhya."
"My Lord is home. I'm ecstatic"
"I light the lamps in his honour." HIS face shines bright in glory.
"We celebrate the festival of lights early this year."
"As if HIS exile has ended and Lord Ram is back home in Ayodhya."
" My love King Ram!"
"As if HIS exile has ended and HE is back home in Ayodhya."
"As if HIS exile has ended and Lord Ram is back home in Ayodhya."
"Lord Ram in Ayodhya!"
Murkute!
Who came in here?
No one Sir, the door was shut.
Then what is all this?
I don't know Sir.
Someone had certainly been in here.
Bring me Bhosale immediately.
Jai Shri Hanuman!
O lord I managed to run out that Scott today.
Now me the strength to throw him out of Sambalgadh once and for all...
But I don't know how to do that.
Jai Hind Movement.
What is their aim?
Keep that in mind.
Jai Hind? - Madhavrao has sent a secret letter.
Each one has their own responsibility. Make sure you do it right.
What are you doing here?
Uh... Wamanya! What are you doing here?
What are YOU doing here?
And what were you saying about the Jai Hind Movement?
What secret letter has Madhavrao sent?
Nothing at all... who's Madhavrao?
Tell me the truth...
I've heard everything. Banya, just tell me the truth.
And where have you been all these days?
You had been to Dapoli!
Banya are you a part of the Jai Hind Movement?
Swear on Madhavrao and tell me.
Yes...
Banya...
..you shameless fellow...
How could you keep this from me for so many years?
And you say you are my true friend?
How many times have I told you how I feel.
You're such a selfish man Banya.
Does this country belong to you alone?
Or are you the only ones who can serve our nation?
Never mind, I ... I want to be a part of Jai Hind... I want to meet Madhavrao.
You know Madhavrao came to me in my dream!
That is how I managed to get that Scott run out.
You see Wamanya...
No... No ... Don't say that...
Tell me... Tell my why can't I be a part of Jai Hind?
They are all a part of it... What's wrong with me?
The only reason behind it is... you're married.
How can that be a weakness?
Had I known I would never have married.
Wamanya... The Jai Hind Movement has specific goals...
We can't depend on married men...
..you have your families, your wife and children to take care of...
This is a dangerous job...
... if necessary one has to go underground...
Can't stay in the same place for long.
Men who are tied down by their homes; It's not easy for them to do that.
Banyabhau... He really wants this so why don't we let him join us?
Yeah.
No ...
Only Madhavrao decides who can join us.
No one else has that right.
And anyone who has just joined us must prove his place before..
..suggesting any such thing.
There's no room here for those who break our rules.
Just do your job ... Now go.
Banya...
I want to do a lot for our nation.
Our Ashtaputre family.
Every generation has sacrificed for our freedom...
You know all about us.
Balkoba Ashtaputre, Balaji Ashtaputre,
Pilaji Ashtaputre, Chimnaji Ashtaputre... - Wamanya... I understand...
But you don't have to join our movement to do all that.
Well, from now on you are a part of Jai Hind...
Yes!
Every man who has dreams of freedom in his eyes..
..is a part of our movement, isn't it?
That's alright Banya...
But now I want to do something concrete for the movement.
Hmm.. Ok. From now on you're a member of Jai Hind.
Take him along with you on today's mission...
Hand him a gun.
Hey!
Hold it away.
Well... I mean ... I'll go home...
Have a word with Rukmini...
And then I'll join the movement.
But till then... Banya...
Here's something from me for the Jai Hind Movement.
Wamanya!
You're name will be written in the pages of history.
Come on... Let's get to work...
Wamanya... See you soon.
Long Live India!
LONG LIVE INDIA! - Hey... Not so loud!
Long Live India!
Long Live Ashtaputre!
Long Live Ashtaputre
Father!
Rukmini!
You should not have risked entering the Bhosale mansion.
Don't worry.
We have a new mission.
When?
I don't know for sure. But very soon.
What are my orders?
Madhavrao needs fireworks...
But powerful ones...
It's going to be a big celebration!
Will I get tonight to make the arrangements?
Long Live India!
"My dazzling beauty, is lethal but tempting "
"That will hit hard & You'll be wounded, deep within"
"O fair lady!
My eyes have captured your sweet naughty gestures
"Your beauty is so fragile; that petals seem like thorns
O fair lady!
"My saree rides on the breeze"
"You stare at me with lust in your eyes."
"My saree rides on the breeze"
"You stare at me with lust in your eyes."
"The valley of my bosom"
"After so long, I've come alive as a woman in your arms."
"Wounded deep inside, by cupid's arrow."
"O fair lady!"
"My eyes have captured your sweet naughty gestures"
"Your beauty is so fragile; that petals seem like thorns"
"O fair lady!"
"The breeze blows gently; like a lover's kiss"
"My anklet has fallen to pieces."
"Hold me to your chest"
"And we'll celebrate the season of love."
"Wounded deep inside by cupid's arrow"
"O fair lady!
"My eyes have captured your sweet naughty gestures."
"Your beauty is so fragile; that petals seem like thorns
"O fair lady!"
Hey!
Ambush!
How could Scott be so alert?
Did he know this would happen?
I never agreed to Ganu's plan.
No.. The plan was fool proof.
And everyone had agreed to it. Ask them.
Why don't you say something, Banyabhau?
But we can't look back now...
Till we finish Scott...
Bhosale!
This chest... This chest is very important...
Make sure you take it to Madhavrao.
Come on Bhatkhande run... This way.
Follow them... Catch them...
They can't get away... Catch them!
Tell me the names of all those involved.
Who else was there?
Bhosale, Bhatkhande and Babnya were a part of this plot...
I don't know anything else.
But yes... Your Dinkarrao's son Banya...
Banya! - He too was there.
Interesting.
So that means that Dinkarrao was involved.
Dinkarrao too!
No, not at all.
Dinkarrao and Banya don't get along with each other at all.
What did he say?
Sir he says Dinkarrao is not involved in this.
Ok. You go.
Ok Sir.
I wouldn't take his word for it. I'm sure Dinkarrao is behind this.
Yes Sir. It will be done.
Sir, there's something else.
Just before dying Bhosale handed over a chest to Bhatkhande.
And he said the chest is very important.
It needs to reach Madhavrao as soon as possible...
That's what he said...
Sir he's talking about the same box, which you took from Bhosale.
And how it needs to reach Madhavrao as soon as possible.
Tell me something.
Have you met Madhavrao.
I've never met Madhavrao... No one has ever seen Madhavrao.
No one can meet Madhavrao. No one knows where he...
Very well. Off you go.
Rana give him his reward.
Yes Sir...
Let's go.
Sir henceforth I'll bring you every news on time. Shall I leave sir?
Yes, you may.
Ganya!... That means you are the traitor.
No Deven... I've nothing to do with this.
All these days we trusted a snake.
You've betrayed Jai Hind!
You want Madhavrao dead!
It's because of vermin like
You that we are still ruled by outsiders.
Tell me! Should I hand you over to Madhavrao?
Or kill you myself?
Please listen to me... I... I...
Ganu had to meet such an end.
Had I known I would've slit his throat right here.
Please be careful!
God knows how many such Ganus there are.
Many freedom fighters have fallen pray to the Sahib's manhunt.
Crucial members missing.
Who are they?
Ashtaputre! Did you read the news? - What about?
Young men hunted down; all of them were a part of Jai Hind.
Did you read it? But you seem to be the most ideal man in all this.
What do you mean?
Why risk your life being a part of such a movement to free the nation!
You're better off living a simple life!
That's not entirely true, Shyamrao.
And there are other secret ways to serve the nation.
Two rupees! I've donated two rupees...
That tyrant is apparently on a mission to crush the Jai Hind Movement!
Be careful of what you say.
Think of the warm meal that you eat at home and keep working at the post office...
Haven't you named your son Bharat!
You've shown enough love for your country.
The blood of brave warriors run through these veins.
Look at this, the despot Scott is going to search every single house.
He already knows the names of those who help Jai Hind.
Don't they sell spinach in the market anymore?
Now?
Now we wait till we get our next message.
When will our movement ever reach the shore?
Do you think it's that easy to break the shackles of slavery?
Had we fought against the British when they first came to our land,
we wouldn't have to wait 125 years for our freedom.
We have brought this upon ourselves.
We shall have to pay a huge price for it.
Banya,
how do we take this chest to Madhavrao?
Bhatkhande!
Banyabhau run!
Banya! Why are you hanging like a ghoul?
Wamanya... Will you do me a favour?
What?
You wanted to do something for the Jai Hind Movement didn't you?
Of course. Just say it.
Just keep this chest safe with you.
That's it?
That's not it. It's a huge responsibility.
I don't have much time. I'll tell you everything later.
Just keep in mind.
The future of Sambalgadh lies in your hands.
Just think of it as Madhavrao's orders.
Banya!... I will be eternally grateful to you.
No Waman. If you do this, I will be grateful to you.
No, I'm just... - Your name will go down in history.
No one can know you have this chest. Don't give it to anybody.
Ok, but what do I do with it?
I will tell you when the time is right.
And remember,
Wamanya, the fate of our nation lies in your hands.
Make sure you give this only to me.
I'll tell you how. Long Live India!
Long Live India!
No
Who's there?
Who is it?
- It's me Wamanrao Ashtaputre.
Wamanya... What are you doing here?
I... me... nothing. I was on my way home.
Don't lie. You've been standing right here.
And you were talking to someone. Who was it?
Go look around.
Nobody... Who could be here?
There are ghosts here. So I was just praying.
You know what's going on in our village.
Sahib has issued orders.
We're patrolling the village. Come on go home. Go on
Chanting
तपासाची काय परिस्थिती आहे?
Many members of the Jai Hind Movement have been caught,
and some of them have been killed.
लवकरच जय हिंद संघटनेचा नायनाट होईल.
And what of our friend?
आणि माधवरावांचं काय?
तपास चालू आहे.
Dinkarrao, nobody has seen Madhavrao, right?
Not even Banya?
And you didn't tell us that your son works for the Jai Hind Movement?
I don't know anything Sir.
I have nothing to do with my son, Sir.
If you wish I will drag him and bring him to your feet.
But, give me once chance Sir, just one.
I have always been loyal to my duty Sir.
I've never let relations be an obstacle in my duties Sir.
Please give me one opportunity.
Sir he needs one more chance.
Ok. Dinkarrao.
We would like to see,
what's more important to you. Your son or your loyalty.
And Rana,
राणा, त्याच्या वडिलांच्या आधी जर तो तुमच्या हाती लागला,
तर त्याला तिथेच गोळ्या घाला.
आणि दिनकरराव,
तुम्ही पोस्ट ऑफिसात जाऊन संदुकीचा शोध घ्या.
Yes Sir.
Please guide me ... What would you have done in such a situation?
Don't just stare at me. In your time,
where did you hide such precious things?
It must've been easier for you.
It must've been much darker back then.
Lord Krishna you tell me where would you feel safe?
What should I do?
Are you done praying?
Enough of chatting to your forefathers.
Aren't you going to office today?
All the Ashtaputres simply love chatting.
He is still alive.
But you are long dead and still want to go on chatting?
What else can you do hanging on these walls?
What's that? - What?
Why are you holding your coat this way?
It's nothing.
You've got boils down there, isn't it?
No...
I'm your wife, there's no shame in it.
And who else would burst them for you?
Don't I tell you not to eat peanuts.
You wont stop eating jaggery.
And this is how the heat comes out.
Come I'll put something on it.
Now don't start screaming.
I don't have any boils.
Then why are you holding the coat this way?
Will you just listen to me?
Or are you going to go rambling on about it unnecessarily?
There's a cockroach in my coat pocket.
It'll get away that's why I am holding it tight.
You and your excuses.
Don't I tell you not keep candy in your pockets?
And don't kill it here in the house. Go out right now.
It must have died in my pocket hearing you rattle off.
Father!
I need a peacock's feather and a flute.
What's with the flute and the feather?
Father, we are staging a play of Lord Krishna's birth.
I am play Lord Krishna.
Good that's wonderful. But that's not until a few more days.
But father we have to rehearse.
Just stuff his face with that flute.
Why would anyone make him Lord Krishna I wonder.
There's no butter at home,
so he keeps putting sugar in the curd and polishes it off.
On and on and on he goes.
Father let's go.
Did you pay your respects? Come on now.
Mr. Ashtaputre, go on now.
Father let's go.
Alright let's go.
Come on Father. - Yes. Bye-bye
What are you doing? Come here. Hold this hand.
Father, how did Vasudev put Lord Krishna in a basket at night?
In a pot.
Father not in a pot, he put him in a basket, didn't he?
Oh yes in a basket, at night.
But why was he after Krishna's life?
Scott.
Father it wasn't Scott, it was Kansa. Was Scott there back then?
Scott wasn't there but Kansa is here even today.
Father how did Vasudev cross the river?
When you pray to Lord Hanuman you don't feel scared anymore... Chants...
Father, Lord Krishna was brought up by Nandraj wasn't he?
Why don't you tell me father?
Will you just be quiet or should I just slap you?
You're just like your mother always asking questions.
Iqbal, is my cycle repaired?
Yes it is.
What do you know about it?
Ashtaputre? What are you doing here?
I was just buying some vegetables.
Here?
What else could I do in a cycle shop, Murkute?
Never mind. Do you know the latest news?
Which one?
Whoever has that chest,
Scott is going to tie him to a tree and whip him in front of everyone.
Stop!
What?
Why are you telling me? I don't know anything... chest.
Is it true? - Yes.
But why are you so terrified?
No! I'm not scared.
When Maharaj fled Agra in a chest...
Yes I've heard that before.
In a trunk... that's when Jeeva Mahal... - Father!
Come on now let's go... let's go.
And don't you dare ask another question or you'll have it from me.
We're here to investigate.
Ok Inspector Dinkarrao.
You may investigate.
Everybody listen.
This is Inspector Dinkarrao.
He's here to investigate. We must cooperate.
Bhatkhande messed it up and It's landed me in a mess.
Come here. What's that?
Did Bhatkhande work at any other table?
No sir, just this one.
Tell me the truth or I'll thrash all of you.
Jai Hind must be getting it's letters here.
Come on show me the delivery.
Here it is.
Sir we found out that Bhatkhande was a part of Jai Hind only after he was killed.
Don't answer for him. Just speak for yourself.
Yes.
Bhatkhande was a part of Jai Hind, we know that. Now show me the delivery.
Open it.
Ashtaputre, come here.
Put it down. Show me that one.
Good morning Sir. - It's going to get worse now.
Look who's here. Inspector Dinkarrao, to investigate.
Cooperate with them or else ...
Go on.
Put it away.
So Dinkarrao, did you find anything.
No there's nothing here.
Did Bhatkhande give anyone of you a chest? Do you know anything about it?
Which chest?
Which chest? Stop pretending.
I really don't know anything about it, I'm new in town.
Sir, we're yet to question him.
Hey, Wamanya! When did you come in?
Just a few minutes...
Why waste our time frisking him?
He's a good man. You can suspect anyone else but not him.
Please go ahead. - That won't be necessary.
Wamanya, have you met Banya?
Have you met Banya recently?
No, haven't seen him in a long time.
And if he doesn't meet his father why would he meet his friends?
If you do please talk to him.
Tell him he is going the wrong way.
It's no use... none at all.
If you see him do tell him.
Come on now.
Thank you Sir.
Sir!
Sir please save me.
What's the matter, I'm not trying to kill you.
No of course you aren't. You have my bag. This is yours.
Is that all?
Oh is that it? - Yes that is it.
Please forgive this old man.
Oh not at all. You aren't that old. It happens.
Wamanya, what are you up to?
Or is there a bomb in your bag?
No.
Do you think I'll finish off your tiffin?
I can smell.. your tiffin.
What's in it?
Oh It's just the usual fenugreek and stuffed brinjal.
Then leave your tiffin with me. You can have mine.
Sure... why not.
Rukmini would be glad. But I have a request.
What?
I will open the tiffin.
It's shut so tight, it's a form of exercise before lunch.
Should I help you?
No, It's done. I found it... opened it.
Here you go.
Don't forget my lunch.
You can have them both.
Uh! But he didn't open the tiffin!
Mr. Ashtaputre,
May I please see your daily India?
Mr. Ashtaputre your paper please.
According to my sources this man is your friend.
Is it so? His name is Banya, the son of Mr. Dinkarrao.
He used to be my childhood friend Sir. We used to play marbles.
You know marbles Sir? Very good game sir. Play it like this...
Have you met him?
No Sir. I don't meet him
In case you do, please tell him that I'm looking for him.
Good day Mr. Ashtaputre.
Long Live Maharana Pratap!
Useless!
Long Live Mr. Murkute.
This fellow is impossible!
What should I do now?
Go around the peepal tree for five times.
Ok. Thank you.
What about my fees?
Later.
Hey!
Later.
Yes, what's the matter?
What do I tell you?
I don't understand what's been going on for the past couple of days.
He has got boils but refuses to accept it.
Wakes up with a start in the middle of the night.
And he seems scared all the time.
I think he's trying to hide something.
He has always been clumsy.
But now he looks at me as if he doesn't know me.
His stars are not right.
I can sense he's under some kind of pressure. Mars...
What Mars doing to him?
Mars doesn't do anything. Your husband is behaving like Mars.
What? I don't understand.
Mars is the only planet, that has two moons.
When the moon casts It's shadow upon Mars this is what happens.
Is there another woman in his life?
Seems like that.
Tell me clearly Shyamrao. Enough of your riddles.
Who is that wretched woman?
Love.
Love for the country!
So scared!
Ashtaputre, I hear Scott has captured three revolutionaries?
He was asking about the chest.
Whoever has that chest...
...Scott is going to tie him to a tree and whip him in front of everyone.
Ashtaputre, I hear Scott has captured three revolutionaries?
He was asking about the chest.
This man is your friend.
In case you do, please tell him that I'm looking for him. Good day.
Did Bhatkhande give anyone of you a chest? Do you know anything about it?
Waman...
Wamanya!
You!
What's the matter? Why are you sweating like that?
Why are you so stressed?
You're born in the Ashtaputre family, how could you be so scared?
No... I'm not scared.
Remember, Balkoba's courage! Remember the sword that Maharaj gave him.
Think of the bravery of your forefathers.
Yes but ... Scott
Is that what you're scared of?
This is like having a lion at home but being scared by a rabbit outside.
Not just Scott...
You shouldn't be scared of anyone.
The blood of the brave runs through your veins!
I know I shouldn't.
Right. Where's your sword?
It's at home.
You...
Does Rukmini chop vegetables with it?
It's on the wall with all the...
On the wall?... You must always carry your sword.
How can I take it to the post office?
Clumsy fellow...
I knew it... Balkoba... Give me your sword.
You will fall.
Here you go.
You keep this.
There goes Scott.
Go face him.
This is the right moment to show your bravery.
Go Wamanya...
Scott! - No!
Ashtaputre... Ashtaputre... My Umbrella!
I will kill you Scott!
Scott!
Father!
No!
Don't run!
Scott... Come out...What's that? Come out.. Come face me!
Here I am. I'm ready to face any one for my Bharat (India) my country.
Scott! Come out!
What's going on? And where's Bharat?
Bharat (India) will be free, don't you worry.
First I'm going to kill Scott...
Father.
He's the one covered in mud and you're pouring water on me.
Are you out of your mind?
You have gone crazy.
Mother why are you hitting me?
What have you done? And where have you been...
Your father and now you... all you Ashtaputres keep harassing me.
Guard the chest with your life and wait for my orders; don't go into the village.
Hey Rukmini.
Let me help you.
Don't bother me.
Rukmini...
What should I do?
Rukmini...
Listen to me.
Why are you so angry with me?
I'm a fool to worry about you.
You don't care for our home and certainly not for me.
Oh come on now.
Rukmini...
my queen...
Rukmini...
My queen!
"You're the moon... and I'm crazy about you."
"I'm your slave standing in front of you."
"You're the moon... and I'm crazy about you."
"I'm your slave standing in front of you."
"My darling, the love of my life..."
"I'm forever under the influence of your intoxicating beauty."
"My heart skips a beat when you're upset with me."
"Tell me my love, where do I find your smile?"
"My heart skips a beat when you're cross with me."
"Tell me my love, where do I find your smile?"
"You're so gentle yet fierce all at once."
"Clumsy as I am, I have stolen your heart."
"Right?"
"You're the velvety dawn of the morning sun."
"Your honey sweet touch makes me quiver"
"You're the velvety dawn of the morning sun."
"Your honey sweet touch makes me quiver"
"My darling, the love of my life..."
"You're the monsoon cloud and I'm the peacock that you drench."
It's there...
The chest.
My coat...
Uh... Rukmini!
Rukmini have you seen my coat?
Rukmini!
Give ... I have to leave.
It's not done yet.
I know It's torn, that's alright.
No It's not.
Such a brave man can't go around with a hole in his pocket.
I won't let you wear torn clothes.
It's alright. Just give it to me.
No I won't. And you can go without the coat for a day.
Go on now.
But how can I ... - Go on. It's alright.
Don't go back in.
Should I go barefoot now?
But listen to me. - Go on now... you're getting late.
Give me... - Oh dear...
not now...
..go on.
Take care...
Go on now. - Yes I'm going.
Come back soon.
May god bless you!
God!
Worry destroys man... He stumbles...
You're under a lot of stress...
It's not gems or gold...
But there's some other thing that bothers you.
I see what you're going through.
Vasudev carried his son to safety... You're wondering how you can do it too.
How do you know Sire, who are you?
It's me Banya.
Ba... Banya!
Hey! ... What are you up to?
Are you acting in a play?
What play?... Give me the chest.
I thought you're playing a part in a play.
You know Arjun dresses like this to abduct Subhadra.
Who's producing that play?
Never mind the play. Just give me the chest.
How's the Jai Hind Movement? Is Madhavrao alright?
You know...
Ashtaputre what's going on?
The cycle's going...
Who's this?
He's a great Sire.
Hey... Wait.
Hey you... stop there.
Wait.
Banyabhau what's the matter?
I think Rana recognized me.
Madhavrao has sent a message. He's going to meet us.
Where will he meet us?
Banyabhau you've taken a huge risk.
The police are after you.
Each time you've managed to flee; but you may not succeed every time.
Devendra is right. Banyabhau, your life is in danger.
Your own father is looking for you.
Banyabhau did you get the chest?
What is it?
The chest?
No... It's safe.
But where is it?
With Wamanya.
Safe?
Long Live India! - Long Live India!
Where's the chest? Did you get it?
Where is it?
Banyabhau said ...
What did he say?
The chest is with Ashtaputre.
It's with Ashtaputre?
Alright.
It will be with me by nightfall.
Tell Banya not to get anywhere near the village.
Yes.
Get it?
Don't worry. Now leave.
Long Live India!
Catch them.
You?
Murkute... Murkute what have I done?
You're making a mistake; why am I behind bars?
These are our orders.
Madhavrao is your...
Yes ... wait till Madhavrao finds out. You've all had it then.
Exactly. Madhavrao is your neighbour, that's why you are here.
No, Murkute. No.
Madhavrao is not my Neighbor; that's Shyamrao.
How many times do I have to tell you?
Shyam....
Wamanrao.
Shyamrao what have you done? They've put me behind bars thanks to you.
You must have said something about the Sahib.
Murkute, what exactly has Shyamrao done?
Wamanya, that's not Shyamrao. He's Madhavrao Sanzgiri.
What's going on here... Ma...
You're... indeed... Madhavrao?
Hmm...
I'm Madhav Sanzgiri.
Forgive me...
I've always insulted you. Always...
How could I not know? But you should've told me.
Isn't it better I didn't tell you?
How?
Or else I would've been in here long ago.
I've been in the company of such a great man, but what fool I am.
I had the perfect opportunity to serve you
but I mistook the great Madhavrao for Shyamrao.
I'm a fool and an idiot. I'm guilty of a huge crime.
I haven't been able to do anything for your cause.
But now you can.
Just tell me what I can do.
What can I do to help you flee?
I don't have a trunk like Maharaj did.
Should I arrange for it?
I don't need a huge trunk.
I'm a small man.
Small things interest me.
The chest! - You... don't get it here.
Give it to my Sudama.
Who's Sudama?
Ashtaputre, come on.
Sahib has asked for you.
Long Live India!
And do tell Sudama, be safe.
Who's Sudama? - I don't know.
तर, अष्टपुत्रे,
माधवराव तुमचे शेजारी आहेत,
आणि तुम्हीच सांगितल्या प्रमाणे बन्या तुमचा बालमित्र आहे.
Yes sir.
हे कारस्थान तुमचेच तर नाही?
No. I've nothing to do with the Jai Hind Movement.
I'm a government servant Sir.
Yes I know.
If you find out where Banya is, will you tell us?
Yes Sir.
अष्टपुत्रे तुम्ही जाऊ शकता.
आणि सर सुदामा कोण आहे मला खरंच माहित नाही.
काय?
माझा त्या माणसावर मुळीच विश्वास नाही.
त्याच्यावर नजर ठेवा, कळलं दिनकरराव?
Yes Sir.
Ashtaputre...
Ashtaputre.
Please come here.
Your Bharat didn't come yesterday.
He was running a fever.
I see.
Your son is doing a good job.
His son Sudama.
Both of them are living up to the name of the eatery.
Your son Krishna is and his son Trimbak is Sudama.
He has to make puffed rice everyday.
Sakharam give him some puffed rice.
No. I'm getting late.
Do take some for your son.
Shankarya, pack some puffed rice.
Krishna would never refuse Sudama's puffed rice.
When he sees the puffed rice, Krishna would know they are from Sudama.
Give it to my Sudama.
Krishna had no love for gold and jewels...
little things made him happy.
I'm a small man. Small things interest me.
Just like Sudama's puffed rice.
See you.
Ashtaputre!
What is it?
Madhavrao's Sudama is waiting at Krishnagadh.
Bring the chest to Krishnagadh tomorrow. - Banya.
What's wrong with you?
What's bothering you?
Nothing at all.
Something has gone wrong. Tell me what's wrong.
I had this... very important thing...
I can't find it anywhere.
I had kept it behind Vishnupant's portrait.
I'll be right back.
Is this what you're looking for? - Yes!
What is it?
Uhh...
Will you tell me what it is?
Madhavrao has asked me to handover this chest to Banya.
Is there another woman in his life?
Love for the country!
Why do you have to get into that mess?
I've always warned you; you will get yourself killed.
You have a child, a family. Now tell me all about it.
Tell me.
Nobody but Madhavrao knows about it.
Scott has killed so many men for this, so certainly it must be..
Tell me how did it come to you?
Banya...
Oh Banya! Go. Go right now And give this wretched thing to Banya. Go.
What are you doing.
We are going to meet tomorrow in the morning.
Ashtaputre!
How are you?
Me?
Did I say anything?
If you haven't, then say it.
What's wrong with you? Are you alright?
I need to reach on time. Or I'll be done for.
My blood pressure's rising. May go?
Have I stopped you? Go on. But where to?
Home.
No. I left from home and now I'm going.
Where?
Far far away.
Right here to see a friend.
A friend?
I mean... I wanted to go. But now It's of no use.
Why?
Because I didn't bring the pot of milk and the cripple is in a hurry.
He needs to reach safely.
He is running out of breath. Mine as well. Bye.
Sir I have a question for you.
What?
Why don't we kill both of them?
Why do you think?
Is Madhavrao an idiot?
Although Scott managed to capture Madhavrao,
he was actually quite helpless. - We must not underestimate these men.
With three bullets I could kill them all.
Instead of killing the captive men, Scott had set his mind on the chest.
What the devil is in that box making adventure crazy.
Rana, get me that chest.
Yes Sir.
Tell me where's the chest?
I don't know.
Now you tell me where's the chest?
I don't know.
Tell me!
Where's the chest?
None of you can tolerate any more torture.
Tell me where's the chest?
I don't know.
Tell me where the chest is or else...
Die before you tell him.
Tell me where the chest is or else...
I don't know.
The chest is with Ashtaputre.
Oh God...
Wamanya
Banya why did you call me so far?
The chest?
I have it.
To tell you the truth Banya, I never imagined I could serve my nation this way.
It's the blood of the brave that...
I have heard enough of your brave blood.
Give me the chest. Thanks for all you've done. - Yes.
Banya!
Father!
Wamanya leave.
But father...
Don't drag this simpleton into your mess.
But I ... - Wamanya just leave right now.
Father. You're making a huge mistake.
Instead of your son telling you that you're making a mistake,
It's better to make that mistake.
But Father... - I am no one's father.
Yes I can see that. You're not a father you're not even human anymore.
You don't care about your son but you don't care for your own country.
You're a slave of the British. Go lick their boots.
Had you sacrificed your son to serve your nation,
the whole village would've been proud of you.
But I'm ashamed to be known as the son of a helpless, slave of the British.
Father, I beg of you, I don't want to be humiliated.
Please just shoot me.
If you feel for your country just shoot me. Here I am.
Don't humiliate your father.
I have promised the Sahib.
I have to fulfil it.
But father!
Your service to the nation is important, but so is my duty.
Come... Come!
Come!
Rukmini!
What's the matter?
We have to go to the function...
Where's Bharat?
Bharat?
Rana.
Rana!
Don't finish all the curd.
Search the house.
What is it? - Where is Wamanrao Ashtaputre?
He ... He just left.
Where is the chest?
What are you doing?
He has gone to give the chest to Banya. I'm telling the truth.
Sister, this is an official matter.
Don't hide anything. Just tell him the truth.
Tell me the truth, where is the chest?
I'm telling the truth. I had warned him to..
..hand over the chest to Banya today Itself.
Mother!
Such a sweet child.
Sir, There's nothing in there.
Ask Wamanrao to get the chest and take away his beloved son.
Mother! - Come on!
Mother!
This is the chest.
To save the life of your own son, you put our nation at stake Wamanya.
एवढं काय खास आहे संदुकीत?
माधवराव, आता तरी आम्हाला
या संदुकीचं रहस्य सांगा.
तर तर!
Well...(तर तर!)
शेवटी या संदुकीचं रहस्य उलगडलं आहे.
मूर्ख आहात तुम्ही सगळेच.
तुमच्या या दारूगोळ्याने.
तुम्ही एखाद्या लहान सैन्यावर मात करालही.
पण बलाढ्य ब्रिटीशांसमोर तुमचा कधीच निभाव लागणार नाही.
तुम्हा भारतीयांना कधी कळणार?
आम्ही तुमच्यावर ३०० वर्ष राज्य करत आहोत ते काही उगाच नाही.
तुम्ही मुळातच भ्याड आहात.
तुम्हाला काय वाटतं अष्टपुत्रे?
दिनकरराव?
एकाने नोकरी वाचवण्यासाठी स्वत:च्या मुलाला अटक केली.
आणि दुसऱ्याने मुलाला वाचवण्यासाठी देश पणाला लावला.
कुत्रेसुध्दा तुमच्यापेक्षा जास्त इमानदार असतात.
आम्ही तुमच्यावर राज्य करतच राहू.
कारण तुम्हा भारतीयांची लायकी गुलाम बनून राहण्याचीच आहे.
हे प्रकरण इथेच संपलं आहे.
Sir, may we leave?
एक मिनिट.
माधवराव, मला सांगा अष्टपुत्रेंसारख्या भ्याड माणसाचं...
तुमच्या संघटनेत काय स्थान आहे?
गप्प बसा दिनकरराव.
Nothing.
बरोबर.
मग आता त्यांची गरज उरली नाही.
Sir...
Bharat!
Balkoba Ashtaputre...
Balakram Ashtaputre...
Pilaji Ashtaputre...
Chimnaji Ashtaputre...
Balaji Ashtaputre...
Scott!
Long Live Ashtaputre!
Any one who dreams has to driven by madness.
Or else the dawn of future will never arrive.
