Aadat Se Majboor

'Praise and defamation are a result of our own deeds.'

'Your shadow will follow you.'

Let me go! Don't kill me!

No.

This rascal has seen us. We can't spare him.

Shankar!

Daddy, will Shankar be able to see?

Don't worry, he will.

Doctor, my son, Shankar... - I'm operating on him, Shastri.

Have courage, everything will be okay.

Doctor, call for you. - Call?

Hello.

That boy should stay blind, doctor.

Who are you?

If you restore his sight,

you will be responsible for your ruin.

Hello?

Hello...

Tell me Shankar,

will you be able to identify the man you saw killing Mr. Dhaniram?

Yes inspector, I can identify him among millions.

It's none of them.

He's the murderer!

In view of the evidence by witnesses,

and the circumstances of the case,

the court concludes that the accused,

Joginder Singh killed Dhaniram.

The court therefore, under section 302 of the IPC,

sentences Joginder Singh to life imprisonment.

I don't understand why you are leaving Kashipur, Shastri.

I have such a big bungalow given to me by the government.

I'll get you another job.

Doctor, you have always treated me dear.

I won't ever forget what you've done for me.

I sincerely worked in this factory for 20 years.

But the supervisor accused me wrongly.

Doctor, I'm shattered. I cannot live in this city.

But where are you going?

I have a friend in Bombay who has promised me a job.

And doctor, Bombay is a big city.

I'll definitely get a job. I don't have a big family.

Just Shankar and this orphan, Ramu.

Sir, tea. - Yes.

David, you?

I don't drink tea.

Really doctor, I don't.

Look Shastri, in the city you are going to,

you'll meet many David's, D'souza's, and Mohammed Ali's.

Will you evade them all?

Listen to me and stop believing in religious differences.

Oh no!

Shastri, tea.

I've made it myself.

I don't drink tea.

But since you made it yourself, I'll have it.

Praise god!

Where did Shankar and Neetu go?

Shankar, will you forget me once you go to Bombay?

How can I forget you, Neetu?

I'll write to you everyday.

And I will reply to your letter every day.

Neetu, you are crying?

Even you are, Shankar.

What are you writing? - I'm writing a letter to Shankar.

Let me listen to what you are writing.

It's bad manners to read or listen to someone else's letter.

But where will you send it to?

Shankar has not sent any letter from Bombay.

It'll come.

You were in jail.

Yes, I was in jail.

But I've come to settle scores today.

Where's the doctor?

Where is he?

He's gone to the club.

I'll call him.

I'll call him.

Hello?

Hello.

Darn you! - Neetu!

You called the police?

Kamla!

Neetu!

Where are all of you?

You? Here?

Yes, here.

Doctor,

you operated on that boy's eyes, right?

You didn't get your fees.

I've come to pay you.

This is your fees.

The fees for light is darkness!

You bring light in other's life.

I'll keep you alive,

but in darkness.

Go away or I'll call the police!

Even your wife tried to call the police.

Look at the consequence.

Dinanath, I'm happy the you learnt the ropes so soon.

From today, you are declared a responsible fireman.

Thank you very much. Trust me,

I'll always treat my duty as my religion.

Congratulations, Shastri! Your job has been confirmed.

And so is our treat.

Mr. Sheikh, it's only because of your efforts,

or who would've given me a job in Bombay?

Don't embarrass me, Shastri.

Have some tea.

Tea?

I don't drink tea.

Really, I don't.

God, I'm your true devotee.

I have just one request.

Don't ever put me in a religious dilemma.

Praise lord!

What is this? - Should I lie, or tell the truth?

Fool! In spite of being the son of a Brahmin, you'll lie?

Tell me the truth.

That rogue was plundering a blind beggar.

I got angry and beat him up so much that he ran away.

Why does the sorrow of others hurt you so much?

You've taken after your mother.

Even she couldn't see anyone in pain.

There was a fire in a neighbour's house. She jumped in.

She died, but saved Ramu.

She left me alone and you, motherless.

But she gave life to Ramu.

What is life if lived only for oneself?

You fool! This is Bombay.

Only those who live for themselves survive here.

Don't try to be a leader.

Ramu, come here.

This idiot is in your hands from today.

If he interferes with anyone else's problems,

I'll break your legs. Got it?

Praise lord!

You will have to change.

I will be keeping an eye on you from today!

You'll keep an eye on me?

Postman, is there any letter for me? - No, there isn't.

You ask me this everyday.

Ramu, I wrote so many letters to Neetu. She hasn't replied to any.

This postman won't bring any letter.

When I grow up and become a postman,

I'll bring you a letter from Neetu everyday.

Madam, take this. - My child's chain! You wretched thief!

God bless you, my child.

How dare you steal in our neighbourhood!

Forgive me.

Forgive me

Forgive you?

You roadside Romeo!

You come to our neighbourhood to tease girls?

No!

Why not?

Don't you have women at home?

No, they have gone to Pune.

Pune?

Then you too will go to Pune today!

Without a ticket.

Where are you going? - Let me go.

I'll take you to Pune.

No Shankar, stop. - Ramu, leave!

No Shankar, if he dies, you'll be in trouble.

Shankar, when will stop getting into fights?

You are always fighting.

You are not a kid anymore, you've grown up. Be mature!

What happens to you?

"It's an internal thing."

"It's in god's hands."

"How am I at fault?"

"It's an internal thing."

"It's in god's hands."

"How am I at fault?"

"I'm compelled by habit."

"I'm compelled by habit."

"It's an internal thing."

"It's in god's hands."

"How am I at fault?"

"I am a unique trader, who takes sorrow in exchange of happiness."

"I embrace embers, and give flowers in return."

"My childhood is over, youth is here."

"But I couldn't get rid of my old habit."

"It's an internal thing."

"It's in god's hands."

"How am I at fault?"

"When someone is hurt, my heart cries with pain."

"I wonder what comes over me when I see injustice."

"I play with danger."

"I take the life of the unjust!"

"It's an internal thing."

"It's in god's hands."

"How am I at fault?"

Enough is enough! There's a limit to everything.

He has crossed his limits. Why did you call me?

Bail!

Bail?

Bail!

I am tired of bailing him out.

Inspector, I've decided not to bail him out today.
