"The queen of Jhansi is immortal."

"The queen of Jhansi is immortal."

"Whose rule was very powerful."

"Whose rule was very powerful."

"The one whose life and youth."

"The one whose life and youth."

"Was decorated with the glimmerings of freedom."

"Was decorated with the glimmerings of freedom."

"The one who attracted every heart."

"The one who attracted every heart."

"The one who attracted every heart."

"The queen of Jhansi is immortal."

"India where very brave and courageous men were born."

"Grandfather Bhisma, Parashurama..

..Arjun and mighty Hanuman."

'But his ears are concentrated on ..

.. East India Company's decision.'

Our company's government has taken the decision.

That Gangadhar Rao is the rightful heir to..

.. Jhansi's royal throne.'

And with this in mind he is pronounced..

.. as the guardian of Jhansi.

Congratulations, your highness.

And please accept my congratulations too, your majesty.

Thank you, colonel Solomon. Thank you Sada Shiv.

..claims to the fact that he will keep the army..

..of the company's government in his kingdom..

..to carry on liberty, compromise and business.

And for their expenses he will give two hundred..

..twenty seven thousand four hundred and..

..fifty eight rupees annually as salary..

..to the company's government.

And along with it he even agrees to this condition that..

..will be added to the army of the company's government.

Thank you dear. Thank you very much.

Take you highness. On the strength of our friendship!

Teacher, teacher!

Teacher!

What is the matter, Tara?

That foreign officer again in that book room.

Colonel Solomon, ensure the governor general..

..on my behalf that this agreement..

..will open new gardens of joy and happiness.

The orders of his majesty will be followed out sincerely.

And the company's government..

..has decided that the king of Jhansi..

I wish I had reached when it was being signed.

Then this agreement would have been written..

But royal teacher the conditions are same..

And this clause where Jhansi agrees to keep..

..the company's army in its kingdom?

Isn't it that very clause for which the senior officers..

..of the company were making rounds of this kingdom..

..since last four years so that we agree to it?

..of the company were making rounds of this kingdom..

But teacher, their army will be present in our processions..

..and also protect the kingdom of Jhansi.

The one who cannot protect himself..

..even God doesn't protect him.

Gangadhar Rao, the throne which..

..I have served for forty years of my life.

And you didn't even take my advice before selling it off.

You didn't even take my suggestion.

From this it is obvious that you no longer need me.

No, no teacher. Don't punish your Gangadhar so harshly.

What will do without your advice and direction?

That which you have done today.

If you had needed my advice then you wouldn't..

..have worn the chains of slavery in your feet..

..in the lust of wearing the crown in your head.

No, Gurudev you cannot forsake me and go.

I will never let you go. - Gangadhar Rao!

I am not your priest but the priest of Jhansi's throne.

And one day I will again come to serve this throne.

But with that power that can erase what you have done.

The one who can raise our bent heads.

The one who can make rewrite the broken history of Jhansi.

"The royal teacher left Jhansi by taking God's name."

"When one's birthplace is in danger then how can one rest?"

"The royal teacher left Jhansi by taking God's name."

"First he went to the temples."

"First he went to the temples."

"Then he reached the mid river."

"As the waves of river lapped gave the knowledge of life."

"He rode the elephants but still his mind was restless."

"He also rode the chariots but still he was restless."

"He rode the camels with the same enthusiasm."

"He rode the camels with the same enthusiasm."

"One very good day."

"He is crazy like the Yamuna he is crazy about his country."

"He was crazy about his country."

"He also walked on foot but he couldn't'..

..get rid of his restlessness."

"Jhansi's destiny at last took him to Vithur."

"At last to Vithur."

Get out of the way you shameless mortals.

Wait!

Wait, wait! This is a village of little children.

You bloody idiot!

Why are you hitting my father?

You run away! Otherwise..

Ramu, Govind, Gopal, Nandy, Munna, Sundar come quickly.

Come quickly. - What is the matter Manu?

What is it, what is it Manu? - I have come Manu.

What is the matter Manu? - I have come Manu.

Henry see this is the man who was about to beat my father.

Why don't you take the straight road?

Move you, boy! - Shame, shame, your nose is cut.

That's all right, children that's all right. Go have fun.

Driver move ahead.

See you have broken my doll. - Don't cry.

Shankar will bring you a new doll. - Isn't it Shankar?

Yes, I will do everything for Manu.

Why have you become so excited? He had a gun.

If he had killed you then? - I have seen many such killers.

Am I a coward that I will get frightened of the gun?

I know my Chameli you are very brave.

You are neither afraid of the gun nor the canon.

You are neither scared of the arrow nor the sword.

Now run and go.

That means the elephant will also be there.

Now if Nana and Rao doesn't sit on the elephant..

..then will you go ride on an elephant? - Yes, yes father.

There is not one but ten elephants in my fortune. Ten.

Look at the owner of ten elephants.

Nana! Rao! Stop the elephant! Stop it!

Won't you take me along with you? - Stop, Uncle!

Rao, let's take Manu with us too. - There is no need Nana.

Elephants are the rides of the kings..

..not for the daughter of their servants.

If you like rides so much then buy a donkey of your status.

Is it? Gajraj!

Rao! Let us take Manu along too. - No, ever.

Mahout, take the elephant forward.

Rao, Rao. Stop. Stop the elephant.

Rao take Manu along too. Uncle, stop the elephant.

Rao, stop the elephant.

Careful, child.

Uncle, stop the elephant.

Leave me. Leave me! I want to die. - My dear!

Your life is very precious. And if you want to die.

My child! Are you hurt? Henry told me that you are injured.

He may have said that Manu has fallen down; she is injured.

Manu is trampled under the feet of the elephant.

But see Manu is perfectly all right.

I thank god a million times.

Don't thank God, father. Thank him.

If he were not there then your Manu would have been dead.

Don't thank God, father. Thank him.

I don't have words to thank you. - Your daughter?

Yes sir, she is the daughter of a poor Brahmin..

..who after taking birth in a hut dreams about palaces.

Shrimant Peshwa's servant's daughter who dreams to be a queen.

I think I have to meet Shrimant Peashwa.

You are welcome sir.

Why have you grown thoughtful after seeing..

..Chameli's horoscope, royal teacher?

She is Lakshmi in luck, Saraswati in knowledge.

All the elements have come together in the horoscope.

Let it be, tell me if I have elephants in my hand or not?

No, there are no elephants in your hand;..

.. your hand is very small.

But there are any elephants in your destiny.

See father, didn't I say? - Come don't speak too much.

Run away from here. - Come Nana. Come Rao.

Wait a bit Moropant..

..the royal teacher wants to tell you something.

Moropant I have got such a thing in your house for which..

..I have searched the country, which I had spent four years.

You have got that thing in my house? That is my good luck.

Moropant, the royal teacher wants..

..Chameli to get married to Jhansi's king Gangadhar.

But teacher how can that be?

King Gangadhar Rao is nearly fifty years old.

And my Manu is not even nine years old.

Won't this marriage go against religion?

This marriage is not done on the pyre of religion..

..that we can count the age, symbols and years.

Or that we can see the pair of the groom and the bride.

..or for colorful display. It is for the country.

The freedom of this country is ..

..hidden in the veils of this bride.

You will see how the tinkling of the marriage bangles..

..will turn into the clanging of the swords.

And every child of the country will fight..

..till the whole country is not freed.

Now tell me Moropant, what is your answer?

Teacher, it is my good luck that my Manu..

But you know that I am Shrimant Peshwa's loyal servant.

My master's permission is necessary.

This marriage has got my blessings Moropant.

Then do I have the courage to refuse?

Shrimant today you have given Jhansi her Queen.

Tomorrow the Jhansi's queen will give your lost royalty back.

I will wait for that day, royal teacher.

Priest tie the knot firmly. It shouldn't open.

Manu you are no longer a young girl my dear.

Today you are starting your new life, never forget your duty.

Along with the veneration of your husband..
