See, they've come, thinking it to be their father's house.
How can I feed others when I myself remain hungry?
Who is this 'others'? Are they any different from us?
I see! You think everybody as your own!
Are you talking of them? She is my own sister. Their house got...
washed away in the floods, and so they had to come here.
They have come as if this is a hostel, as if my father left a...
tree where money grows! What do you know, how much I have...
to struggle to earn money.
Look Jagan, we were not coming here! Floods came and I had to come...
here with my blind mother. But we will not stay here for free.
We will work and labor, yes. I will deliver the milk...
which aunt used to do earlier. In exchange, you give us food.
Ok fine. Driver! Why're you seeing my face? Take out the vehicle.
- Hey! Lower your attire! - What up and down!
What up and down? I have a habit.
What problems I have? I have so less work and in addition so many people to feed!
Sir, I am ready. Hurry. There is very little petrol.
- Come, move. -What is this? You made me a driver from dancer.
- Keep quiet and move. -It is not a cart, that you use a whip and it moves!
I am new in the village. Take me everywhere. Introduce me to all.
And tell me, how much milk I have to give at each place.
10 liters of buffalo milk you've to give to about 4-6 houses.
Chedi, your village buffaloes do not have much strength.
In my village, each buffalo gives 50 liters of milk.
How can a buffalo give 50 liters of milk?
Maybe a little less.
I have a habit of exaggerating. You reduce as much as you feel.
- How much should I reduce? - We will settle this later.
- Where do we go first? - Kaluva's house!
Let's go.
- Here, sister. Take the milk. - Chedi, who is this with you?
- This is auntie's sister. - Why didn't auntie come?
You want aunt or milk? If there is no cock to crow, will there be no morning?
From today I will give the milk. I am Tulsi.
- From today, don't bring milk. - Why?
My husband died in the army. I cannot sustain myself and 3 kids...
on the pension I get.
What sort of mother are you, denying milk to your kids?
Sister, your account for 3 months is yet to be paid.
- That money needs to be paid as well! - Have faith in God. Chedi, give milk.
- Mother, Bhola's fever has increased! - Let me see!
Fever? You wait, I will see.
Oh God! His body is burning Haven't you called the doctor?
I wanted to. But for that too money is required.
He will not treat us for free everyday.
Why not? He'll jolly well treat him. I will just get him.
Doctor! Doctor! Is anybody there?
Nobody is replying! Wonder where all have gone.
No problem. He will come.
This is a mere skeleton! Male or female?
Male? No, it cannot be.
Great.
Hello... Oh no.
Yes, it is running!
Kaluwa, where are you returning from?
I had gone to the doctor, but she is not in the dispensary.
Doctor? What are you saying? Where is the doctor to whom nobody goes?
That is why he has left the village. In his place, a lady doctor has come?
A lady doctor?
- But what had you gone there for? - Babua has high fever.
Fever?
Ok, you go. I will kidnap and bring her.
Oh lady doctor! Kaluwa got fed up waiting, and you are still...
sitting here! I'm here to take you along. Come with me!
What?
Babua has high fever. Come and have a look, and give medicine.
- What? -Can't you hear, or are you not understanding anything?
Even God's throne shakes on hearing a poor man's call!
What are you saying?
The whole book is read, and you ask who are the main characters! Are you coming or not?
Where are you taking me? I am not going anywhere.
I will lift and take you!
Really? Dare to try and even touch me!
Hail Goddess!
Listen doctor, Babua's fever must be cured in 10 minutes. Or else...
- I will make you sick! - What?
I had come to see the child. I had gone to check another patient.
- And I came here from there. - Then, who are you?
- She is Chedi's sister. - She may be anybody, I got confused...
seeing her dress. Take out that coat, and give it to Doctor!
- I am taking it out! - Take it out.
One doesn't become a doctor, merely by donning a doctor's coat.
- The glasses too! - Her, take it.
Have you ever been to school?
Does a milk maid and doctor look the same to you?
You twisted my neck. Blindman!
Stop abusing! Don't say anything more, else it'll not be good.
What not good? You are a goon, a dacoit and a rascal!
You are a brinjal, black as soot, and ugly!
- You are a crook, and an owl! - Quiet. My name is Shambu.
If you make any noise, I will cut out your movements in the village.
Oh, you! If I don't make Bamboo out of Shambu, then I am no...
Tulsi, the milk maid. Come Chedi.
Sister, if you keep fighting with everybody like this, we can also...
- ...sell eggs along with milk. - Do I fight with everyone?
- You fought with brother Shambu. - Did I fight with Shambu?
He entered the lady doctor's dispensary himself. Did I fight?
He brought me forcibly to Kaluwa's place. Did I fight?
He asked me to treat Kaluwa. Did I fight?
- But how much you abused! - You mean, I shouldn't even abuse!
- No. - Ok, I won't!
- 29 kilos and 100 gm. - Put some more.
Put some more.
- 29 kilos, 200 gm. - Are you measuring jaggery, or gold?
This is not auction stuff. It is earned with sweat and toil.
And you also sell by the gram to your clients!
We are retailers, where as you are wholesalers.
Weigh it properly.
- Listen! - Yes, we are weighing it.
- Listen. - It weighs properly.
- Get the sack. - Tell me.
- Have you sold the entire jaggery? - Yes.
What happened?
But...
You know it, Shambu eats a bit out of sheer love for it.
Let him. You mean, for Shambu's sake, I should not do business!
Watch it, weigh correctly.
Hey, keep it back.
Look, such an opportunity does not come often.
He is buying at the rate of Rs. 80.
That is all right, but you should have asked Shambu.
Forget it. Where should I look for him? He must be with Jagan drinking somewhere.
Tell me, Jagan, you have such a big drama firm. There must be...
some role for me. Should I show you how I perform?
You are a piece of moon! My heart is broken, a piece fell...
here, and a piece there!
Wow, Shambu, you are great!
My name is Prem Chopra!
Prem Chopra!
You're drinking my liquor. I won't leave you! You keep cheating me.
Why are you strangling me?
Leave me, or else people will think we are seriously fighting.
See if I can, I promise to make you a hero.
- Promise? - Yes, promise.
Your brother is asking for the seeds, you gave me secretly.
Yes.
Your brother is asking them back.
Look, I am scared of your brother.
- What? - Yes.
I toil, and my brother Kishen tries to scare you. Where is he?
You...
Don't create problems. It looks you are high!
I'm not high!
In childhood, I had a 21 day fever on my head. Now in,...
youth, my hot temper is everyone's headache!
- Shambu, look... - Yes.
Give up your temper, and think with a cool mind.
Okay.
If your brother asks me now for the cost of the seeds, where will..
I get the money from? Tell me.
You don't worry.
I will speak to my sister-in-law. Who can disobey her orders!
God bless you with a long life!
Give me my cap.
Hey!
Gulfa's neck has been stolen! Must be some thief!
