One day, a tireless sparrow was flying...
...with a grain in her beak.
When she sat on a bamboo pole,...
...the grain fell.
So she went to the woodcutter.
'O Woodcutter, please cut the bamboo pole.
My grain fell in it.
What'll I eat, drink and take home abroad with me?'
The woodcutter said,...
...'You want me to cut the bamboo pole for a tiny grain?
Go away from here!'
'O Woodcutter, what would you understand how my...
...world revolves around that one grain?'
Being disappointed, the sparrow went to the King.
'Your Highness, please punish the woodcutter.
He refuses to cut the bamboo pole that has my grain in it.
What'll I eat, drink and take home abroad with me?'
The King said, 'For one grain, I'm to punish the woodcutter?
Go away from here!'
The sparrow didn't lose hope...
...and went to the Queen.
'Your Majesty the Queen, please advise the King.
He refuses to punish the woodcutter who refuses to...
...cut the bamboo pole that has my grain in it.'
'You want me to advise the King for one tiny grain?
Naughty sparrow! Go away from here!'
Now the sparrow was enraged and went to the snake.
'O Snake, go bite the Queen. She refuses to advise...
...the King who refuses to punish the woodcutter...
...who refuses to cut the bamboo pole with my grain in it.'
The snake ignored her plea.
Then she goes to the stick who said,...
...'I want peace.'
'You're always fighting and suddenly you want peace...
...for the sake of my grain?'
Father! Father!
Father! Hey Lakhna!
Father! -Father!
Hey father! -Hey father!
What is it?
Get up! -Get up!
Talk politely. He's your uncle.
Get up!
Be careful.
Get me some water.
Mother, give him water.
Sister, tell me the story.
One day, a tireless sparrow holding a grain in her beak...
...was flying.
Her grain fell into the hollow.
The sparrow tried very hard but couldn't get the grain out.
Then? -Then the sparrow...
...went to the woodcutter and pleaded,...
...'Woodcutter, please cut the bamboo pole.
My grain has fallen inside it.
What'll I eat, drink and take home abroad with me?'
The woodcutter said, 'You want me to cut the...
...bamboo for a tiny grain. Go away from here!'
Scratch properly.
Then the sparrow went to the Queen.
'Your Majesty, please advise the King.
He refuses to punish the woodcutter...
...who refuses to cut the bamboo pole.'
Hey kids! I'm here.
You want to eat toffee? Toffee!
I want a toffee too. -I want too.
Here you go.
Is everyone okay? -All are fine.
We're fine, Mr. Ramprasad. What about you?
Sir, any news about my son, Leheriya? I haven't seen...
...him for two years?
Your son sent this FM for you.
What is this? -Look, her son sent...
...her this radio. -Is that so?
What use is it to me? -Play it. Look how they're...
...clapping for your son.
What about my son, Mr. Ramprasad? -Look, I almost forgot.
Take it out.
He sent a torch for you. -Really?
An LED torch. -My son sent this?
Clap, everyone.
Mr. Ramprasad, this is my son.
Pay your respect. -What about him?
He'll go with you this time.
Add his name to the list too.
Take this.
Okay, we'll leave by boat at dawn tomorrow.
Okay. -At sharp 5.
I'll pay you an advance for him at the boat.
Okay. -Okay?
Okay, I must go. Pick up my stuff.
My stuff.
Did you get it?
Ghosts are my slaves, witches are my servants.
My chanting will remind you of your grannies.
Go and keep it on the railway track.
The passing train will flatten the coin.
Touch it on your brother's brow, then put it in the temple as...
...an offering, understand? Now leave! Go!
What's the matter? What are you staring at?
Can't you take care of him?
Stop crying, baby. -What is it now?
Stop crying, baby.
Baby, stop crying. -Hey, Phullo.
Why are you so angry?
Make some tastypakoda today.
No, no. Don't cry. -All the oil will finish...
...in frying it.
So what, my queen? It's for your brother.
My brother, it seems!
Shut up, you pest!
7000.
Don't you dare enter my house!
Is that so? -I'll poison your snacks.
Hey, Jhalki. Listen.
Hey!
What's wrong with her?
What's this fire for?
To hasten the flowers of the mahua tree to ripen and fall.
Flowers of the mahua tree to ripen and fall.
The drunken youth of the Mahua!
If I had enough money, I'd go watch dance shows everyday.
I've told you many times to send your son to the city to work.
You'll become rich.
Forgive me, boss. You call my wife, Phullo...
...your sister, right? -So?
Even a witch will spare one household.
The real witch lives in your house.
Your daughter.
Sell her to a whorehouse and money will pour in.
You monster!
I'll kill you!
You want to sell my children?
I won't spare you.
I will kill you!
His condition is critical. Take him to the city hospital.
Arrange for some money fast.
Money? How much?
At least five to ten thousand.
Let's go. Don't waste time.
Come on! I'll arrange for the transport.
Be careful. Look, what's the total?
Eight, sir. -Eight?
Sit quietly. -Mother!
Sit down. All sit.
Babu! -Jhalki!
Jhalki, stop! Let Babu go!
Let him go! Stop!
Sister.
Sister!
Babu won't go with you!
He won't go with you! -Hey!
Handle her! -Babu won't go with you!
Throw her out! -Sister!
Sister! -Sit, sit!
Sister! Sister!
Take them down, one by one.
Sit, we'll talk.
Come and sit quietly.
Who asked you to go there? Sit here!
What did I tell you? Sit down!
You'll get good food, clothes and money too.
Work hard. If anyone complains, you'll get beaten black and blue.
Do you understand?
Are you all listening?
Which one? -The one in green.
Come here.
The money.
Go.
Work hard.
You. -Which one?
These two.
He must be hungry.
Go buy some jalebi andpakoda...
...from that shop.
Take it. -Are you hungry?
Take it! Come back fast.
I'll be right back. Remain here.
Give me somejalebi!
Here you go.
Hey girl! Take your change!
Stop!
Catch her!
Stop!
Long live!
O Fire, burn the stick. It refuses to kill the snake.
The snake refuses to sting the Queen.
She won't advise the King.
The King refuses to punish the woodcutter...
...who won't split the bamboo that has my grain in it.
What'll I eat, drink and take home abroad with me?
She then went to the sea.
O Sea, please douse the fire.
The fire refuses to burn the stick.
The stick won't kill the snake who refuses to sting the Queen.
The Queen won't advise the King.
Even the sea said no.
O Sea, such a huge belly and such a tiny heart?
She then went to the elephant.
O Elephant, please soak up in the sea.
The elephant agreed and said, 'Come, let's go.'
Uncle.
Uncle, uncle.
Did you see my brother? He's this tall.
Hey, brother. Did you see my brother?
They took him away from there.
Ask the rickshaw driver. He always send kids.
They took him away from here. His name is Babu.
Why aren't you asleep?
Everyone must get up at five in the morning.
Don't cry. No crying.
Sleep now. Sleep!
Stall owner, can you tell me where those rickshaws went?
You remembered your change now?
Where did those rickshaws go?
Take your change and go!
Get me somejalebi for this.
Jalebi for Rs5?
Take this and buzz off!
This?
What is this?
What's in thisjalebi?
What have you done to her? Look.
What happened? -Take her to a doctor fast.
What's the matter, girl? -Hurry up. Call the doctor.
Tell me fast. Where did those rickshaws go?
That was a speedy recovery. -You'll have to tell me, uncle.
Where did they take my brother?
Look, you were about to die after eating myjalebi.
I'll take you to a doctor.
He'll give you an injection. -Oh God! An injection?
Okay, I won't die. I was just kidding.
Now please tell me. -I can't tell you.
Okay. So, who is the king here?
King?
Tell me or I'll throw a cockroach into yourjalebi pan again.
She's such a dangerous girl.
The king here is the District Collector, okay?
Where can I find him?
Being disappointed, the sparrow went to the King.
'Your Highness, please punish the woodcutter.
He refuses to cut the bamboo pole that has my grain in it.
What'll I eat, drink and take home abroad with me?'
Get down, girl. This is the king's bungalow.
Go.
Let's go, brother.
Lend me some money, stall owner. I'll return it later, promise.
Go meet the king at his house. He'll give you lots of money.
Let's go.
First I have to be humiliated, then lend her money?
Now what?
Listen, child. Come here.
Hurry up.
Come on, hurry up.
What do you want? -I want to meet the king.
The king? -The King Collector.
No, no! -Let me go inside.
I said, go away. -I want to meet him!
Go home. Want to meet the king?!
Ghosts are my slaves, witches are my servants.
My chanting will remind you of your grannies.
Ghosts are my slaves, witches are my servants.
My chanting will remind..... -What happened to her?
Come, devotees! The great Goddess is here.
She'll stand on one leg and pray for your wishes to come true.
In villages and towns, she has taken care of her many devotees.
Give your offerings and get your wishes fulfilled.
Those standing at the back, come and touch her feet.
What's all this? -Sir, that girl has been...
...trying to barge in since morning but I chased her away.
Now she has turned into a Goddess.
A Goddess? What nonsense! Make them leave from here.
Sir, how can I throw a Goddess out?
Nonsense! Bring her inside.
Okay, sir. One Goddess is inside and one outside.
Move!
What was all that? -Your watchman refused to...
...let me meet you, so I did this.
What? -Ramprasad kidnapped my brother.
Thejalebi stall owner knows where he was taken but won't tell me.
You're the king. Beat him and ask him my brother's whereabouts.
I'll take my brother and return to our village.
Where is your village?
I don't know.
There's a school, a big fig tree and even a well,...
...where Babu has written something.
What did he write? -'Babu'. That's all he knows.
Go to the police station tomorrow and file a complaint.
This is not my job. -If it's not your job, why ask?
What's your name? -Jhalki.
He's not a king! He can't do anything! They're all lying!
He's not a king! Let me go!
Get going and don't come back! Buzz off!
One, two, four!
These days, the moon...
...no longer speaks to me.
These days, the moon...
...no longer speaks to me.
The sky has shrunk to the size of a palm.
The stars in the village are not seen here.
These days, the moon...
...no longer speaks to me.
O sister, make me a drink with a lot of sugar in it.
I'm dying of thirst.
My throat is very dry.
O sister, make me a drink with a lot of sugar in it.
I'm dying of thirst.
My throat is very dry.
These days, the moon...
...no longer speaks to me.
Who must have fed Moti his milk?
Who must have given Champa her fodder?
Who must have brought father's cigarettes?
Who must have helped...
...my tired mother carry her bags?
These days, the moon...
...no longer speaks to me.
Hurry up.
The liquor store is about to shut.
This place is full of sacks.
Wasn't she in this sack?
Let's go from here.
Come on.
Where are you coming from?
Why are you in this state? Sit.
Is everything okay? -I'm okay now.
Brother, give me some water.
Here, drink water.
Some tea too.
You'll have tea, right?
Here, take it.
Brother, give me too.
You met the king? -He was totally useless.
So now what? -I'll have to look for the Queen.
You'll look for the Queen?
The sparrow didn't lose hope...
...and went to the Queen.
There she is.
'Your Majesty the Queen, please advise the King.
He refuses to punish the woodcutter who refuses to...
...cut the bamboo pole that has my grain in it.'
Your Highness the Queen! These vegetables are rotten.
This brinjal shouldn't be so swollen.
I've seen at Headman Mishra's farm.
He farms to feed himself and also to sell.
He sprays harmful stuff on the vegetables he's going to sell.
I heard that the spray is poisonous.
Come here. Look at these, Your Highness.
It's fresh, better than the others.
You're selling rotten vegetables to me?
I'll see how you run your business.
Ram Singh, return his vegetables and report it.
Brother, pack 2 kilo brinjal, 2 kilo bottle gourd and...
...2 kilo okra. Thank you, dear.
Your Highness! -What is it, dear?
Ramprasad kidnapped my brother. -Who is Ramprasad?
The stall owner knows about it but doesn't want to tell me.
Where are your parents? -In the village.
My father got burnt in an accident and is in hospital.
Ramprasad brought Babu here and I followed him.
He has a habit of sleepwalking.
That's okay. Come with me. Come.
Sit.
Hey rickshaw, move aside!
We'll try and he'll be found.
Don't worry. I'll talk to him, okay?
This girl is back again?
I told you to go to the police. Did you file a complaint?
Why are you scolding her? Do you know her?
Her name is Jhalki. -Isn't she cute?
You must be hungry. I'll get you something to eat.
Why're you getting involved in all this?
It's a very big nexus. Try to understand.
These people are dangerous. It's not that easy.
What nexus, Sanjay? Which people?
I don't know anything, nor do I want to know.
All I know is that this little girl needs our help.
That's all!
Have some.
How do we find him?
There're so many factories here.
She has no idea who brought her here.
Okay. Till then, she can stay here.
When she gets a lead, she can look for her brother.
She can be a company to our kids too.
Brilliant idea. -Very risky idea!
Please.
Hurry up! You'll be late for 'iskool.'
It's not 'iskool' but school.
Yes, 'iskool.' -You didn't tie it right.
Bye, papa. -Bye, mama.
Bye, mama. -Bye, kids.
Bye, son.
Did you find out anything about Babu?
Sit.
Hello. -What does your brother look like?
He's good looking. -Is he fair-skinned?
No. -Dark skinned?
Not at all. Something like this.
Just a minute.
It's Akhilesh.
Give her some clean clothes.
Yes, Akhilesh. -When did you last have a bath
Good morning. It's good you phoned.
Let's talk about it later. I forgot to tell you in...
...the office. Try to find out about a kid.
His name is Babu. He's seven year old, dark-skinned.
Kind of dark.
You're so filthy! Didn't you ever take a bath in the village?
I use to under the tap and in the river.
Look up! -My mother would thrash me....
...if I wouldn't. -I'll thrash you too...
...if I don't see you shining around my kids, okay?
Okay. -Stop laughing and look up.
At least I can see your face now.
I'll collect a bag full of chalk and bring it along.
That is why my sister and I will go to school.
Hey //
Hey gardener, //
We'll wear dark glasses and sing English songs.
We'll take the train to town with our gang.
We'll write our names on flowers and leaves.
We'll keep writing till the sky is full.
This is why my sister and I.....
This is why my sister and I will go to school.
Your Highness! -Yes?
Can I go and find Babu? -Not now, Jhalki.
Just for a while.
There's a lot of work. Maybe later, okay?
What is it? -No.
Stop acting. You were trying to run away,...
...that too right under my nose?
I have the habit of sleepwalking. -You sleepwalk?
Come with me! Come on!
I'm telling the truth. -Come on!
Only you have this habit. Of all the kids here,...
...only you have the habit to walk in your sleep!
Come! Come on! Come!
What are you doing?
You witch! You sold both our kids?
It's because you were drunk and got burned!
So strangle me now and sell my dead body.
You'll get lots of money.
Hand him over. -Take him! Sell him too!
You'll get a lot of money.
My kids!
How is everything? -Hello, brother.
How's your pressure cooker working?
It's working fine, brother.
Listen, brother. I'd be grateful if you...
...could advance me Rs2000-3000 more this time.
If you say so, let me see.
If you take 2000, then you're paid till October.
If you take 3000, till February. Speak up.
Till February, brother. -I knew it, till February.
Get me the diary.
Here you go. -Thank you.
Sir, my son needs employment too. He's ten now.
He plays all day long. -He plays a lot?
I'll add his name in the list if you insist.
Take this.
You play a lot?
What's his name? -Batula.
Batula is a nice name. -Hey, stop this nonsense!
Where is my daughter? Tell me!
She's living in style in the Collector's house.
They sent you an advance. Here!
I'll stuff your mouth with your own money, monster!
You sold my children! Bring them back or...
...I'll break your bones! -You'll break my bones...
...with your damaged body? You'll break my bones?
Your drunkardness caused your accident.
You're threatening me that you'll break my hand!
Two-faced crook! -Shut up! Just shut up!
I gave you Rs8000. Return the money and take your children.
You'll get your money. -Pay now and right now!
Why no answer now?
Ungrateful fools! What a time!
Give them money, save their lives and listen to their abuse.
You're right. -What is right?!
Dhani Sah, tell me. I know that you know Ramprasad...
...and where he took those kids.
Girl, why do you keep asking me?
If you're so desperate, ask your rickshaw uncle.
He takes the kids.
Stop! -What happened?
I know everything! -Hey, come on.
I'll never talk to you again.
You lied to me. You know Ramprasad.
You have joined him to sell those kids.
One day, you'll sell me too.
Listen, child. Jhalki.
Why are you following me? I said I won't talk to you.
Look, child. It's not that easy.
But we must try at least.
When will we reach, uncle? -We're almost there.
It starts from here.
Every house here is a factory.
Some are small and some are big.
How'll you find him? -We'll have to get off...
...the rickshaw first.
They won't let you in.
They're very dangerous people.
That's one factory,...
...another at the back.
They must have hidden him inside.
What's going on?
What's the matter? Who are you looking for?
Come here. Come here!
What's the matter?
Who are you looking for?
Go! Get out!
If I see you again, I'll burn you alive and no one will know!
Get lost!
Stop! Please stop! Stop!
Sister, hurry up. It's very hot.
That's a police car.
Stop, reverse a bit.
Stop. -Sir.
Why did you throw a stone? -How else to stop you?
Our car broke down. There are kids out here.
Jhalki. Sir was right about you.
What did he say about me?
Nothing.
Get the kids inside. Come, children.
Is Babu inside? -There he is.
Not him but my brother, Babu.
Hey girl! What are you doing there?
Stop! Where are you running?
Stop!
Hey Dinesh! The girl is running away. Catch her!
It's a nice song!
Hey!
You've not folded the clothes yet?
Not like that, dear. Neatly, like this.
The king is doing nothing to find Babu,...
...nor are you. You promised me.
Jhalki, shut up and finish your work.
Hey!
Hey girl! Go! -My brother is inside!
Let me go inside! -There's no one inside.
My brother's name is Babu.
There's no Babu inside. Get lost!
Babu.
It's a bit less. Make do this time.
Are you buying fruits?
You people enjoy fruits in all seasons.
At times mangoes, lychees, grapes, blackberries.
I like eating mangoes throughout the year.
Eating mangoes every season will lead to diabetes.
Come, come! Come on!
Sir, this girl has been loitering around here for two days and...
...she broke two window panes by throwing stones today.
Speak up! Why aren't you speaking?
How did you get in here? -My Babu is inside!
I know it. Let me meet him.
Let me go!
Is there a boy named Babu here? He's dark-skinned.
He's not dark!
What're you saying, SDM sir?
You know that no children work here.
You've seen the signboard on the gate outside.
No, he's here! I saw his writing.
SDM sir. -That's his writing!
Take this girl to the police station.
How many panes did she break? -Three.
She broke three window panes. Get me a compensation.
You think you're a bandit queen? They would've buried you alive!
Don't hit her. -You don't know with what...
...difficulty I got her out. -I know Babu is in there!
That man was lying! -Jhalki, it's not that easy.
SDM sir is trying his best, right?
Yes. I saw him taking money from them.
What's going on, Sanjay?
Stop!
Bring them out. -Get down, everyone.
Ramu, where are the others?
They're coming, brother.
Sit. Sit down.
Money. -Here.
I'll be back soon. -Go, hurry up.
Okay, take him. -Hey, come on.
I've found my brother. Now get him out from there!
What have you done? You tore my pocket.
I'll tear everything!
Get my brother out and these kids won't go anywhere!
I'll call the SDM and the Collector.
Mohan!
Run, run! He sold Babu! He'll sell you too!
Run, run! -She's messing it up!
Where did you go?
Where are you running?
Let me go! Let me go!
Stop! -Hey, uncle!
Do you know what is going on?
What's going on? Do you know?
You're still finding out? Hurry up, please.
This girl is a disaster. I told you not to let her stay...
...but no. You wanted her to play with the kids.
Enjoying the fun now?
Anyone checked the terrace? Where is everyone?
Sir, I've checked the terrace but Atul is not there too.
Look in your room. Go and ask the driver...
...to look inside the cars.
Isn't this fun? -Yes, it's fun.
We'll hide all day and don't need to study.
You think it's a joke? My son is missing and you.....
Sir, they have been found. She's the one who hid him.
Atul, my son.
Jhalki, get up.
My apologies. My son was playing at home.
We thought he was kidnapped. You can go.
Are you guys the fire?
Atul has been found. Can you find my brother too?
That wicked uncle has sold him off.
Jhalki, go inside. -Stop! Who is Baba?
Who is this girl?
Can you be frank as to what this girl is saying?
Let me explain. -What is she saying?
I'll explain. Don't take her seriously.
Actually, she's mentally unstable.
She's a relative but is an orphan,...
...that's why she lives here with us.
She's totally crazy.
Bye.
Now they call her crazy and an orphan as well.
She is crazy. She has been wandering...
...around crazily for weeks looking for her brother.
Now she even knows where Babu is...
...but how will she get him out?
Whenever such kids are taken away in my rickshaw,...
...my heart shudders as to what am I doing to them?
Where am I taking them?
Thousands of kids are trapped.
I've come to cover the story about such kids.
But it's not that easy.
Nothing is easy, Uncle Raheem.
We can't just sit back and do nothing.
Babu, I saw your sister.
Where?
Hey kids, get up! Hurry up!
Come on! Move!
Come on! Run, run!
Get inside!
Come, come. Come here.
Come.
This is our factory.
Only these few workers work here?
No. -There's so many carpets.
It's the wedding season, madam. They've gone to their villages.
They spend everything on weddings, then return to earn again.
That's why so few now. We have another unit that side.
On which side do the kids work?
Kids don't work here. Didn't you see the...
...signboard outside?
So kids don't work here? -No.
So kids don't work in the factories around here?
I wouldn't know that, madam.
Go ask the DM and the SDM.
Ask the Chief Minister. They'll tell you as they know.
You're a journalist and know everything.
Come. Come this way.
Come, our other unit is on that side. Let's go that side.
You can see that unit too. We make carpets in all sizes.
Small size. Come this way.
Big size. Full length size.
We have a variety of designs too.
Our workers are very good.
Then the sparrow went to the Queen.
'Your Majesty the Queen, please advise the King.
He refuses to punish the woodcutter who refuses to...
...cut the bamboo pole that has my grain in it.'
What'll I eat and drink?'
The Queen said, 'Go away from here!'
Then the sparrow went to the stick.
No, to the fire.
No, to the stick.
I forgot. My sister knows the entire story.
Sir, I've cleared that file this morning.
Yes. Jhalki, stop that noise.
Yes, sir. Sir, we're waiting for police clearance.
Jhalki, stop that noise!
Sorry, sir.
Sir. Thank you, sir. Good night.
I asked you to stop that noise. Don't you get it? Are you crazy?
You're no King!
I'm leaving and won't stay here anymore!
Stop her. -You go along.
Jhalki!
She won't going anywhere. She'll be back.
Ram Singh, stop her! Ram Singh!
Hey brother. Make one tea.
Since when she's been asleep here?
I don't know. Quite some time.
Sister, Ramprasad sold off my brother, Babu there.
I have full faith in my story. I know where Babu is.
Help me get him out somehow.
Look, actually she..... -Actually Jhalki is your...
...relative and she is mentally imbalanced too.
And she saw you taking a bribe. -Nonsense!
What do you want?
Where are you going? Come this side.
This way, madam.
You said no kids worked here. What's all this?
When did I say that?
I said nothing that we do here is illegal.
This is a Cottage Industry. These kids are my relatives.
Stop filming! Stop it! -Okay, we know all that.
Get the register!
The name and address of every kid is listed in detail.
You'll find everything in this register. Everything!
You have a look too. Take a photo of it.
Okay, all these kids are your relatives...
...but one boy here is not related to you.
He is that girl's brother. -Really?
Madam, if that's true, then hang me to death.
Now tell me, who is that kid and where is he?
Jhalki! -I don't have any...
...relative called Jhalki. Madam!
Listen!
Babu. Babu!
Babu. Babu. -Hey girl!
Babu! Babu! I'm here, Babu.
Jhalki, did you find Babu?
Leave her! -Babu, I'm your sister.
Madam! -Leave her!
Sir! -Madam, did you find the kid?
Yes, there he is! -The one in the blue singlet?
No, the other one. Babu!
The one next to him?
Leave her! -Babu!
Hey, come here! -Babu!
Leave her! -Bring the girl here!
Babu! -Bring her. Come!
Stand here! Stand here and tell me if you're her brother.
Let go his hand. Let go! Don't threaten the kid!
Let me handle it. One minute.
Son, speak. Is she your sister?
Speak up. -Babu, tell him I'm your sister.
Don't touch her! -Hey, silly boy. Speak up.
Speak up! -Speak up, son. Don't be scared.
We are the police.
Come here. Is she your sister? Speak up.
Don't be scared, son. Speak up. -Speak up, Babu!
Is she your sister?
Speak up, son. Don't be scared.
Say it, Babu.
Babu!
Who is our boss, Shivlal Chakiya? -Paternal uncle!
Yes, very nice.
Who is our boss, Shivlal Chakiya? -Paternal uncle.
You fool! What did I tell you?
If he says paternal uncle, must you say the same?
Who is he? -Maternal uncle.
What? -Maternal uncle.
Yes, a respected maternal uncle.
Showing respect is very important, got it?
My mother's brother. -Very good. Very good.
If anyone feels like running away or gets the chance...
...or someone helps you to escape,...
...so what happens? -The police will kill us.
They'll pull our guts out.
The police are everywhere. They will come and kill us.
Wow! This boy is very smart.
Jhalki found Babu herself, so what did you do?
What could I have done? Tell me.
If you wanted, you could've gotten Babu out.
Priti, in the given situation, we did what we could.
Of course. Firstly, you informed them of my arrival...
...and the entire set up changed inside.
Secondly, you got a register made, a new one.
No, Miss Priti. It's not our job to have registers made.
This is a Cottage Industry and this is legal.
Of course it's legal. Making kids 8-10 years old work...
...for 14 hours is all legal. -This system is such, Miss Priti.
They've put so much fear in the kid that a brother refuses to...
...recognize his sister. It's all legal. Cottage Industry, my foot!
Okay, okay.
Tell me,...
...how much does your TV channel pay you?
What? -Madam, you know what I mean.
But you still don't seem to get it.
We don't work like you.
We're doing what you should be doing.
Oh, I see. So now you'll train me...
...for Civil Services.
No point talking to you. -What's the matter?
Finish our conversation at least. -Let's go.
Just a minute. Listen, Miss Priti.
What about the training?
What is it, dear? -Lesson number one.
Stop taking bribes.
Number two, to do good work, have some courage.
You're a police officer.
After examining all the witnesses and evidence,...
...this court concludes that Shivlal Chakiya's...
...documents are legitimate.
Miss Priti's video is not valid as evidence.
The video appears to be tampered with.
You were right.
Hence this court finds Mr. Shivlal Chakiya not guilty...
...and releases him.
Catch her!
Hey!
Okay. Yes.
Right now!
Priti.
How is Jhalki?
Does it matter to you?
Are they operating on her?
Yes.
I've spoken to Dr. Mathur. Let's shift her to the...
...City Hospital. This hospital doesn't have many facilities.
But they've already taken her inside, Sanjay.
But she..... -Who is with Jhalki?
She has a few deep wounds. Her head in wounded badly...
...due to the bad fall but what is most urgent is her...
...tongue which got cut, is hanging and a lot of blood loss.
It is risky but we can operate.
Go ahead. -Who will sign the papers?
I'll do it.
May I,...
...please?
Thank you.
Yes, sir.
Sir, we're almost there.
She wouldn't have to suffer like this if you...
...hadn't thrown her out.
I didn't throw her out. She ran away.
You didn't stop her either.
So much happened after that and you did nothing.
I'm doing my part. I took care of the whole hospital bill.
Sanjay, you and Akhilesh don't think of anything beyond money?
I'm shocked that you tried to bribe a journalist.
Atul went missing for a few hours and we nearly died.
She's a child, Sanjay.
Brother, if mother hits me, who'll save me?
I will!
Jhalki.
Sister, Babu.
The sea said no.
O Sea, such a huge belly and such a tiny heart?
She then went to the elephant.
O Elephant, please soak up in the sea.
The elephant agreed and said, 'Come, let's go.'
The elephant had courage.
He could only soak up a trunk full but see his courage.
The moment both of them went to the sea, the sea said,...
...'Please don't soak me up.
I will douse the fire.'
Now you get it. Come, keep moving.
The fire said, 'Don't douse me.
I'll burn the stick.'
Just like that, the stick agreed to kill the snake...
...and the snake agreed to sting the Queen.
The Queen agreed to advise the King and...
...the King agreed to punish the woodcutter.
Then the woodcutter finally cut the bamboo pole.
The tireless sparrow found its grain and...
...flew away into the wide open sky.
What is this place?
Why am I here?
You're here to make your bones stronger,...
...so you can fight better and find your brother.
Let me see.
Oh my God! Such strong bones.
Who are you? -Your friend.
He has rescued thousands of children like Babu.
Where were you till now?
We'll get him out now.
I'll go with you, okay?
Open the gate.
Open it.
Hey! Where are you're going?
Where is Babu? -I don't know.
He was right here.
How did they get in?
The court has acquitted me.
Throw them out!
Let's go, kids.
Stop!
The court has made a decision.
Throw them out! It's the court's order.
Search this place! This way!
Let me go!
You'll be in trouble!
Babu!
You've no idea who you're messing with!
SDM, you betrayed me! -Shut up!
I've kept filling your pockets!
Jhalki!
Babu!
Let's go!
Let's look up ahead. Come on.
Jhalki, he's not here. Come on.
Anyone here?
Come on.
Sir, we've found 30 children.
Put them in the cars, I'm coming.
We're still looking for him.
We'll definitely find him somewhere.
Babu!
There's no one here. Let's go.
Wait.
Babu.
Sister!
This boy made us run around looking for him...
...while he was snoring away to glory.
They are like a flowing river.
Let them have their way.
They are a sunset.
Give them the entire sky.
They are a refreshing scent.
Don't let them dissipate.
They are a bundle of joy.
Let them spread far and wide.
Whatever else you may or may not give,...
...make sure they have a right to their childhood.
They are a bundle of joy.
Let them spread far and wide.
This is a long ongoing battle and we've been...
...fighting this war against child slavery for many years...
...but we'll only win on the day not a single child...
...works as a slave labourer.
Whatever else you may or may not give,...
...make sure they have a right to their childhood.
They are a bundle of joy.
Let them spread far and wide.
Child labour is a manifestation of slavery...
...and a huge obstacle in the way of education.
It creates and encourages poverty.
A child labourer today will always remain poor.
So to put an end to poverty, we must end child labour.
If we want an educated society and country,...
...each child must be freed from child labour.
Slavery is the biggest crime.
What can be worse than that?
You're snatching away the childhood, freedom...
...and a child's future and that's unacceptable.
These are our children.
For all those who talk about the nation...
...and cannot hear the cry of a child when...
...he leaves a brothel, mine and factory,...
...then we need to have our ears checked...
...and our ears are our education, values,...
...knowledge, culture, religion and our law.
If we still cannot hear these cries,...
...then we must hang our heads in shame.
I request everyone to awaken the power...
...of compassion in your hearts and end this menace.
Let's hear the voice of millions of children...
...who is asking me, you and everyone,...
...'Where were you till now?'
They're asking, 'Why haven't we returned...
...their childhood?'
We must save their childhood today and right now.
Whatever else you may or may not give,...
...make sure they have a right to their childhood.
They are a bundle of joy.
Let them spread far and wide.
Teach them but not with a heavy hand.
Make them understand but without force.
Help them to see their future...
...but without determining their path.
If commerce thrives,...
...let it go on.
Trade gold and silver as much...
...but don't trade childhood.
Let them fly.
Weave stars on their wings.
Let them flow...
...and be their shores.
Let them wander free and find their own rhythm.
Let them fight and become their shield.
Whatever else you may or may not give,...
...make sure they have a right to their childhood.
They are a bundle of joy.
Let them spread far and wide.
Whatever else you may or may not give,...
...make sure they have a right to their childhood.
They are a bundle of joy.
Let them spread far and wide.
