Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi

Read the back-page in Jagriti? - Yes, and I'm wondering...

how the news of the mines got to the presses despite Mr Das being in place

Got to thrash it out at the board meeting

Wait

Hello, my chest is a bit of an inconvenience for your umbrella

Where's your friend? - My friend? Jiten?

Where is he? - Returned to Calcutta yesterday

Came directly to the office, after I left for the day

Since then, no news

Umbrella! On my foot

Please hold it aloft?

Send Jiten to me as soon as he comes to office. Understand?

Whatever you say. Bye

Profile, first class!

Front, super class! - What?

My compliments. I'm Mr Chunilal, chief photographer. You are?

Ruby! Pink diamond! What an apt name!

Pink lips, pink cheeks, pink all over

Since when have you been here?

Day before yesterday. - I've been here for years

If you have any problems here, just tell me

I got a link right upto the managing director

Right upto the managing director? - I meet her every evening for tea

The managing director

This is no time for tea

Great

Wake up, it's morning

The news editor has summoned you. - Give me some time

On the double. This morning, he's missing you dearly

What have you been upto? - You'll get to know in a while

In a while? Why, what's to happen? - War. Between truth and falsehood

War? No, not today, I'm in the mood for romance. Yes dear?

This dear is cut off for now!

Are you the news editor? - Yes

Mr Das, Seth Gulabchand says that the story on his mines is incorrect

Absolutely incorrect, sir! I didn't give permission to publish it

That Jiten Gupta did it. - Who is this Jiten Gupta?

One of our reporters. - It's his news

He forged my signature and sent it to the presses

Forgery? The managing director ought

Mr Das, you may leave. - Fine

Madam, did we invest millions in your newspaper to bring ourselves to harm?

We ought to profit. Only profit

Is this a request or a threat?

Not to misunderstand

A request

From this newspaper, our businesses ought to gain. Not lose

Your involvement with the newspaper is only in the share of profits

Deciding the policy of the newspaper, running it, is my responsibility

And I am fully aware of my responsibilities

Got to take a look at the book before sundown

Drinking in office? - The office being the problem...

here's right where I take care of it. - I'll do it for you

What are you doing?! You've spilled half! Let me have the rest

No, I'm throwing it all away. - Go on! I've got money

That was a quarter of a bottle. I'll buy myself a whole bottle

Let's see how you do that. - Mr Gupta...

What is it? - Madam wants to see Mr Gupta

Calling you! For the first time! You're surely getting a promotion

Give my money back! - You aren't getting it back

You think I can't buy on credit? At month's end, I drink on credit

Are you Jiten Gupta? - Yes

The news about the mines is yours? - Yes

Without permission of the news editor?

- No Your job is getting the news.

Publishing is the news editor's job I know, but...

- Why are you indisciplined? For the sake of the ideals

of this newspaper Isn't this our motto?

"Let the Truth prevail" My news is correct. The mines

are in a precarious condition They might collapse at any time.

Several miners might be killed You shall state your case without

getting carried away. Talk business I'm not getting carried away.

Tell me, what is more precious? The lives of the miners?

Or office discipline? I wish you saw for yourself

the poor miners deep underground Sans fresh air and the heat

could melt your brains The work conditions are stifling

You know why? If they don't work their children will starve

Hapless as they are, they mustn't be oppressed in this manner

What oppression? - I have the evidence

The mine-owners are playing with their

lives. Just look at my photographs Just look at the state. Ceilings,

about to cave in, flooding waters Do take a look, madam

Why didn't you show this to the news editor?

I did, but he refused to publish it. I hear he's their man

Whose man? - The mine owners'

Enough!

Mr Das has been working with us for eight years. Not a word against him

As you please. One last thing

I have no more time. - The working of those mines must

stop You may leave.

- It's a matter of lives Stop arguing.

- Give me a hearing I told you. You may leave.

I wish to hear no more Why won't you? You must.

You can, if you wish... use the newspaper to save lives.

Else, today or tomorrow... the mines will cave in,

crushing miners to death Women will be widowed,

children will be orphaned And you will be responsible

Silence

I hear this paper fought for the people, for the truth...

in you father's times. The daughter, I see...

has sold out to the capitalists

This insolence has cost you your job. - Not my life, I hope

As long as I preserve my courage, employers, there will be many

Maybe you never heard the saying about the Eternal Spring

The arrival of The Spring will never cease

Who else is around? - I'm laughing it out all alone

Just read a lovely joke

I failed?

Complete failure

But the results are expected tomorrow.

How come you've found out today? A friend told me.

- Your friend is talking rot He works at the university.

- At the university? Then...

What happened, Baby? - The telephone

And... - Conversation

And? - Don't you see? I'm in tears!

And why are you in tears? - Tomorrow, Didi will scream at me

What for? I've never heard her screaming at you

That's why I'm so sacred! No! I can't show her my face

Not anymore

Would it cost you your tongue to apologise?

Yes

Hear that, brother?

Take a good look at him. The one and only, in all of India

As much fun as an ass has in summer...

this man enjoys going broke

Sure. - What do you mean? He just got fired

And look at him enjoying himself

Wonderful! Just look at the display of sheer nonchalance

Come off it! I'm talking to you. - Yes, go on

Why didn't you apologise to her? - Why should I?

Indeed! Your father left you a legacy!

So you kick the job! Not your ego Not ego. Ideals.

- Ideals! Indeed! You hear... hear that brother?

I'm talking to you. Just look at him, brother

The world is making money. And he's after ideals!

And why not? Money isn't as exciting as the ideal, is it?

Move over

Listen, your ideals won't work, not in 1962. Not listening, are you?

You'll die starving, soon. Let's see who gives you a job

Lots Chuni Lal, lots

"Let the gardener be gone"

"But in Eden it always blossoms"

"The Spring always returns"

"Spring will always return"

"Don't let yourself tire, don't let yourself be stifled"

"Go on, singing your tune"

"Among thorns, make flowers blossom..."

"use them to fill your emptiness"

"Let the wind fan the flames"

"Let there be venom in the air"

"Yet The Spring always returns"

"Spring will always return"

"Let the gardener be gone"

"But in Eden it always blossoms"

"What is light, what is darkness?"

"I belong to none"

"Your dreams, your desires, are all you have"

"Let the world treat you mercilessly"

"Let not the climes suit you"

"Yet, The Spring always returns"

"Spring will always return"

"Let the gardener be gone"

"But in Eden it always blossoms"

What are you upto?

Oh how cruel a world this is! - How cruelly has your world dealt

you? I can't even jump when I want to die!

- Why do you wish to die? How are you concerned? Intruding upon

someone's privacy is uncivilised Forgive me this error.

Go on, jump. Go ahead It's going to take another

three quarters of an hour In the wait for an auspicious moment?

Worked on it for 45 minutes...

to get into the mood for the plunge. In the nick of time, you transpire!

Ruined all my efforts!

Then I have committed a grave crime!

Get out of this madness. Go home. - I'm not returning

Why is the train stopping here?

Listen...

Sprain? - All because of you

Had you not meddled, I wouldn't have had to make this getaway

Or I would've been dead by now. - Sorry for spoiling the fun

Let me drop you home. - I'm not going home

Then I shall, perforce. - My foot hurts! Brute!

If you must do it like a gentleman. Pick me up

Don't you watch films? Are girls picked up like this?

Yes, this is the way every burden is carried

Is Babli asleep? - She locked herself in all evening

Is she all right? - Yes, you want me to wake her up?

No, let her sleep

You won't give me your name and address?

- No, no and no! Let's see, for how long.

- Till eternity Until then I am pursuing you

Look...

All you need is the reins

Step down. - I won't

You aren't on muleback. It's my back. Get off

Get off, I say

This man brought me here forcibly! - I'm taking her home

I won't, won't and I won't!

Why are you limping? - He gave me the limp
