Khumar - First Season

Look at your princess’ simplicity.

I tried a lot to make her understand, but she shopped for so little.

May God give my daughter a good fate.

May she not lack anything. Amen.

You people sit and talk, I am cooking food.

I will come from my room.

Okay.

Son, Rufi,

I am worried

that what if those people are mistaken

that we will give everything as per their wish.

Mama, Faiz and I have gone to Nasir’s home and spoken to him.

He is taking the responsibility of his home.

He has assured us that he has no such demand.

Nasir is a sensible boy,

I think he would have spoken to Durdana and Shagufta.

Hareem is even more sensible and understanding than Nasir.

I am really proud of my sister that she has taken up such a big burden on us,

instead of putting it on us.

And no matter how sensible Nasir is,

I don’t think the coming days will be easy for our Hareem.

And aunt Durdana has really disappointed me.

My daughter is really courageous.

Her courage is like the river that makes its own path.

My daughter is really sensible.

Really smart.

God will make it all fine.

Son, give me my tea. Here you go.

Kulsoom.

Yes, madam?

What is the matter?

I was going to ask sir if I should serve food in the room.

You leave it, I will see. Go.

My son’s fever still hasn’t gone down?

How much time is required for this volcano to cool down?

What if it’s lava burns down the home to ashes.

Don’t worry dear mummy,

today I have nothing apart from

getting buried in the ashes of embarrassment and disappointment.

I have not been left capable to face anyone.

I have understood today.

I have exactly understood what my worth is,

what my position is.

This is what I am disappointed about

that neither have you understood your worth,

nor the position of your parents.

Fine, you have been living up to friendships in the name of charity

but you shouldn’t have licked dirt in the name of love.

If you had understood your worth, then today,

you wouldn’t have been sent away from your father’s office after being humiliated like this.

I am not sad

that I got humiliated and was sent away from my father’s office.

I am sad

that people who call themselves respectable in this society,

the people who call themselves generous,

in reality they are so small and useless.

Even after calling a poor person low,

they send them back without helping them.

Then shouldn’t such people be ashamed of calling themselves dignified?

Stop this nonsense.

Hey, wait.

I brought your medication.

What happened?

You are fine, right?

I had a severe pain, Taufeeq.

I will call Rufi and Hareem, okay?

No.

wait.

Wait.

Don’t let Hareem and Rufi feel

that I am unwell or I have pain.

The wedding is around the corner,

and I don’t want that

my ailment comes in the way of my daughter’s wedding

or because the reason of delays.

Let a few days pass,

we will think about this later.

You have tolerated so much sorrow, for my earning.

I couldn’t do anything for you all my life.

Mr. Taufiq, that’s not true.

You have supported me a lot.

You gave me a peaceful married life.

I got obedient children from you.

What more does a woman want?

Wealth and health are all in faith.

I had little written in my fate.

I am content.

Okay, you don’t worry, it will all be fine.

We will see the happiness of our children together.

Don’t worry.

I shouldn’t have raised my hand on Faiz like this.

He is young blood,

what if he does something wrong in his stupidity.

It is good that he tolerated it with patience.

He didn’t react.

But I too will have to be a little lenient.

What if things get out of hand because of this strictness.

Rufi, shared his issues with me with so much hope and optimism.

Sadly, I couldn’t do anything for him.

Not for aunt’s surgery, nor for Hareem’s happiness.

I am so helpless.

I am sorry, son.

I shouldn’t have raised my hand on you,

but the way you spoke to me in front of Humna,

it really hurt me.

Maybe the reaction of that grew so much,

that I raised my hand at you.

It is okay, mummy.

I am not sad that you raised your hand at me.

You have brought me up with a lot of love and hard work

and even if you raised your hand at me for the first time today, then it is fine.

I am just sad that

you couldn’t understand my emotions.

If I had asked this same money for some lavish car,

for a world tour, to bet money on a horse race,

then you would have given me money in huge quantity.

But when I wanted to help someone needy,

you moved your hands from me.

I cannot tolerate these double standards,

and maybe that’s why I got slapped.

And,

I spoke the truth in front of sister in law Humna.

If the price of speaking the truth in this palace like home of ours is a slap,

then I will get slapped.

You know, Faiz,

the way I don’t understand what you say,

maybe you will never be able to understand my point of view.

You want to help Rufi for his sister’s wedding,

then give them an precious gift.

TV, fridge, deep freezer,

I will send whatever they want.

But leave this wish for millions.

But mummy, you gave away so much money in brother Rayyan’s wedding as charity.

In life every person doesn’t have the same standards.

Why is a king born a king, and a pauper a born a pauper,

the One who gives, creates us, doesn’t give us this answer.

Mummy, but it is also possible that

the king has been made king to test him.

But thank you very much for your offer.

If I need it, I will tell you.

I will go now.

Where are you going?

I am going to inform someone

that I am so ordinary and meaningless.

Hareem. Yes, brother?

I will take these two shopping after mama’s checkup.

There is very little left to your wedding and they still haven’t brought clothes.

You thought of a really good thing brother. Thank you.

Get them great clothes.

Mama and papa, you don’t care about yourself at all.

Hey, child, what is the need to show tantrums in this old age.
