Greetings, Mr. Bhishmanarayan!

Greetings to you, too!

Is everyone fine at home? - Yes, by god's grace.

Good. What about the case regarding your land?

Dates keep extending.

I'm just wandering around the court.

May I say something? - Sure.

You fought against the British and got us independence,

but believe me, their rule was better than this.

Everything was done expeditiously.

And now, one has to pay bribe to get his work done.

God alone knows, what will happen to this country!

My respects.

May you live long, son. Sit down.

As your grandfather,

bring glory to our family name, Tilak in the entire country.

Here, have some holy offerings.

Very good!

Did you have your father's blessings?

I will, mom. Mom's blessings come first and then father's.

Pratap. - Don't you know, I don't like milk.

No, son. You will have to drink milk.

Else, how will you become strong?

C'mon, have it.

Good! - Daughter-in-law!

Well,

is Pratap ready?

I'm ready. My respects grand dad. - Long live son.

You won't come to drop me to school. I'll go on my own.

You take rest.

You've taken after your dad. You have all his habits.

Grand dad! Never hit anyone on the head!

You know, there's a small brain in there.

If it's hurt, it could kill a person. - I'm sorry son.

Now go to school, else you'll be late.

Ok, grand dad.

Bye, mom. - Ok, son.

I lost my young son for the service of the nation.

Now, there's just one dream left.

The freedom fighter,

Bhishmanarayan Tilak's grandson must,

make a name for his family.

Yes! It's three! - You wretched gambler!

So you're the one, who got my son addicted to gambling.

No aunt!

I won't listen to you today.

I found out, he isn't been attending school for 20 days now.

Now I know, he's been taking these lessons in your school!

What's the matter?

You look very worried.

It's already evening.

Pratap hasn't returned yet.

Father, after school, he goes to his teacher's place for tuitions.

Exams are approaching.

He said, he will top this time in the school.

He will. I'm sure he will.

There's amazing confidence in his eyes.

He'll be a very successful man one day. He'll be a very famous man.

He'll definitely be well known but for his notoriety.

Teacher! What are you saying?

The truth. I'm just trying to make you realize the truth.

You talk of tuitions,

but I'm here to tell you,

he hasn't been to school for the past 20 days.

I met Pratap outside the village yesterday.

I asked him, why had he remained absent.

Do you know, what he replied?

He said, his grandfather was ill

and he was busy serving him.

On hearing this, I came to visit you.

But here, I see, it's a different story altogether.

Teacher, what nonsense!

That isn't nonsense. He's speaking the truth.

Father!

Father! No!

No! No! No!

You're playing here pratap! And your grand dad has passed away.

You're crying as if your father has died!

What's the big deal?

Everyone's got to die someday. You'll die, I'll die.

He's relieved from the world's worries.

God knows, what was so important!

Strange!

Don't you know, you'll have to light the funeral pyre?

You think, if I don't light it, won't it burn at all?

Stop worrying about me and go do your work.

Grandfather has slept forever.

Now you go home and sleep.

Call the grandson for the last rites.

Priest.

I'll perform the last rites.

Get out of my sight!

You're a murderer. You've killed him!

I won't spare you!

Leave him. Are you going to kill him?

Go away! I'll kill him!

I'll teach him a lesson.

Get out of this house, if you have my blood flowing in your veins!

Don't ever come back with your disgraceful face.

If you've grown up on my milk, then be true to it and

don't ever come back to this village. Better die!

Don't show me your disgraceful face!

Think that your mother died with your grandfather, too!

Your mother's dead

and you're dead for her.

Turn it around.

Great! Very good.

Atul! Don't go into the water.

Atul! Stop!

Atul!

Atul is drowning!

Save him!

Help! Save me!

Help!

Help me please.

Laxmidas, come out!

Laxmidas!

Laxmidas, come out!

Something terrible happened!

What happened? Why are you screaming?

Is someone dead? - Your son!

No, he isn't dead! Here he is.

Father!

What happened?

What happened, my dear?

What happened to him? - He was drowning.

This brave boy saved him.

Son!

Son! This is a big favour!

Even if I give up my life, I can't repay you.

Take this. Your reward.

Take this.

Take this.

Take this reward

and have some sweets in the name of my son. Go on.

You're a bloody miser!

Should I take Rs. 5 as alms?

I've saved his life.

I'll take 500. Not a penny more, or less.

You want 500? - Yes.

Not a penny more or less?

You! Don't hit me here! - Why not?

There's a small brain here. A man can die.

Small or big, you don't even have brains.

Isn't there anything called humanity?

You'll take Rs. 500 for saving a life?

Look, I don't understand your talks of humanity.

Be quick, I got to go. Out with 500 bucks!

And what if I don't?

No problem.

Tomorrow, when I see your son,

I'll tie a stone round his neck and throw him into the well.

Then our accounts are settled.

And then you can buy sweets with this fiver.

Miser!

Wait!

Where are you going? Trying to settle accounts?

Take this, son.

Take your 500. Ok?

Now I understand your accounts.

Listen, next time, don't help anyone in this society.

I've never even helped my father.

Then who are you?

You go away. Please! Go on!

'Laxmidas!'

'Look at the boy!'

'Look at his attitude!'

'The one, who can walk away with your money,'

'can get anyone to do anything.'

'This chap is useful, all right.'

'He shouldn't leave.'

Come here!

Where do you stay?

Right now I'm here. Just assume, this is my house.

I understand!

You're alone in this world?

Those who have nobody, then I'm their own!

This society is mine. Henceforth, you're mine too.

You will be my son.

And you will collect rent from this place.

Here take this.

This month's rent is Rs. 32,880 and 12 cents.

12 cents are missing. - Here.

It's less by another Rs. 150.

Megha Dixit didn't pay.

She didn't. - I know.

This girl came here. - She was all alone.

Alone. - I thought.

This girl has problems with food with shelter. - And you took pity.

I took pity. And that was my fault!

That was my fault!

Now when I ask for rent,

she asks for documents! - Yes.

She tells me my shanties. - Are illegal.

I'll publish it.

Police. - And tell the police.

Such people. - You have to be wary of such people.

No, who's scared?

But every time she meets, she gives a lecture. Someday,

I'll set her newspaper right! Now let's talk of my money.
