Veergati (वीरगति)

Whose child is weeping?.

Who dumped the child in this filth?

I wonder who left him here.

An child born out of illicit sex would end up in such places.

Let's go away.

Remember to administer medicines regularly to the child and mother.

Constable! The madam is calling you.

Go and pay this money.

- You sent for me? - A child was born to me last night.

Congratulations. - If a decent man like you...

puts the sacred Ganges water in his mouth...

...this child is sure to grow up into a good man.

I cannot expect a holy man to walk into my house.

He wouldn't come? Would he?

- Open your mouth! Come on! - You're a nice kid, aren't you?

Drink it!

Grow up to be a good human being.

Will he grow up on the strength of your affection...

...or is there a father to care for him?

Those who visit these brothels have fathers of their own.

But one who takes birth here doesn't have a father.

Such a child is considered as sinful.

A child in your arms! - I found him in the gutters.

I don't even know where he came from.

Will you leave the infant in some orphanage?

Now that I've touched him, where is he an orphan now?

Put some Ganges water in his mouth too!

I wonder if an infant who has seen filth right from his birth...

...will be able to get to taste the sacred Ganges water?

It's easy to embrace a stranger, but very difficult to make him one's own.

Did you ever consider if your wife would accept him?

Not at all!

I can never accept this filth!

You'd better go and dump him in the ssme place where you picked him.

How can I dump him just like that?

One doesn't kick away a living being even if it's only an animal's child.

You'll have to leave me forever.

I wonder whose child it is. Take care ofhim, if you like.

You'd better control yourseif. You shouldn't lift weights.

I'll find it tough to care for the weight that you've brought home today.

Look! Listen to me!

Rven if you don't consider him as a human being...

...you should at least care for him for the cause ofhumanity.

He'll eat some food out of whatever we can afford.

How'll you fend for your own child?

I'm pregnant now. If a boy is to be born to us...

...this child will try to snatch the rights of our son.

If a girl is born to us, this child will force her into prostitution.

I promise you...I promise you.

Families cannot function on the strength of promises.

I assure you that I won't deprive you of your rights...

...neither will I let our own child be harmed in any manner.

Nobody brings up one's own child along with a smake's child!

My decision is final.

You're leaving me in the presence of the entire neighbourhood.

You'd better consider it as a separation for ever.

Rven if I were to die, you need not come and light my funeral pyre.

Listen to what I've to say.

If you get news of my death, you need not come to see my dead body.

So now you expect this filth in your hands as a replacement.

If this is your last wish, I'll definitely fulfill it.

I'll definitely fulfill it.

Friends! We'll not let this bastard live here.

Ifhe lives here, it would influence our children adversely.

- Come over! - Leave me!

- Come over, I say! - Leave me!

Take this 5 rupees! You went to fetch a taxi for this, didn't you?

What right do you have to instigate people and break families?

- Lay off!. Will you? - Don't you shoo me away!

If I go away, you'll find it difficult to pay for your booze.

You'd married me to provide for me. But you're dependent on me now.

If I keep quiet, it doesn't mean that I don't know your source of earnings.

Why're you all staring?.

You couldn't become a father yourseif.

But you want to deprive somebody of their support.

The almighty who has provided the mouth will provide for food too.

It's time for your bath now.

You're my nice kid! You're a good kid!

My son will go to school today.

Do you know the meaning of Ajay?

Ajay means one who is invincible.

Constable!

My son didn't get admission on the strength of my name alone.

Would you agree to name yourseif as my child's father?

What'll you do by educating him?

He'll receive education here.

But how'll teach him etiquette and culture?

I stopped soliciting the moment he was born.

I've vacated all the brothels.

What've you named your son?

Rvery conceivable song is rendered in your locality.

Your son's name means hymns.

That's something which is missing in your locality.

I'm looking at the beginning of my golden future.

Soul can neither be cut by weapons, nor can it be burnt by fire.

Neither can water wet the soul, nor can air dry it.

Ajay learnt about etiquette at home, but at school, both were condemned.

My parents told me that both of them are street urchins.

They experienced hatred and rejection. They prayed for acceptance and love.

But they continued to bear with insults.

You're scoundrels!

Ajay took to the path where nobody asked him his father's name.

Ajay took to playing cards. Soon both the kids became adults.

There's still fifteen minutes for the exam duration to end.

You could've revised. - I've already revised my studies.

- Give it to me. - How can you do that?

- How was your final paper? - As usual.

Since we're going steady, I've suffered in my studies.

- Love is as tough as any exam. - You've passed the exams oflove.

Tell me, once you complete the course will you start...

a business, or would you settle for a job?

I'll decide about it once I get the exam results.

But I'm sure of making you my wife.

You'd better make her your wife first.

Ifher business begins to flourish, you wouldn't have to work for a living.

I know how to silence people like you.

But it's against my principle to bash up idiots like you.

I'm excusing you once again.

Don't speak to these dogs. Or they'll bark back at you. Let them bark!

Hey! Besides barking, we bite too!

Hit him hard!

O Lord!

The crooks uttered the wrong things at the wrong place.

You scoundrel!

Get out! You've been bailed.

You vindicated and released those who were wounded...

...but arrested the one who fought for justice.

The law is ridiculous, really!

These people were the ones who instigated trouble.

By holding him guilty for such a serious offence...

...my son would be labelled as a criminal. His life would be ruined.

- Do you want him to be released? - So that he'd commit murders later.

We'll fight for our sons, and ensure that he is punished.

How long would I be punished for it?

Anywhere between five to seven years. It's a case under section 307.

They're rich people. Moreover, money influences court decisions.

- Hey you! How much is 307 minus 5? - 302.

But why're you asking me about it?

I'm calculating. The five of you'll be beaten for five times...

...and the five of you will die thereafter.

I can be punished only once for my crime.

Rven a tree dries up if it's accused of committing murders.

Tell me the truth! Didn't your deeds deserve to be condemned?

Murder?

Father! Murder in a police station?

He'll be punished. I'm helpless.

- If you could pardon my son... - You don't have to speak like this.

Let me explain the case to you.

We were at fault. It was us who tried to molest her.

We don't want to fight the case. We withdraw our complaint.

Let's go, and save our lives.

You're a son of a retired policeman. That's why I ask you...

Why do you take law into your own hands?

What's your name?

Your name is Neelkanth. But you haven't eaten the poison...

...that's running in my veins.

What kind of a poison?

How many members does your family comprise of/.

- My parents and myseif. - Then you won't understand.

It would suffice to inform you that I'm not the policeman's son.

Can we prevent these people from cursing us if we bash them up?

I'm mistaken. The next time I'll kill them instead ofbeating them.

So that you may spend the rest of your life behind bars...

...and I would continue to visit you all my life.

Neither did I call you here. Nor will I call you in the jail.

They are educated and cultured people. Go and mingle with them.

You need not meddle in my affairs.

I'll ask you where're your medals. You'll say that they are lost.

But the truth is that you've sold them to bail me out.

They've already withdrawn the case.

But you won't be able to recover your medals now.

You've ruined everything. What do you want to prove?

I don't want to prove anything. I did what I deemed fit.

- You too didn't prevent him. - Why should I've stopped him?

If needed, I would've given my ornaments too.

Is material wealth greater than your own son?

Don't you call me a son.

Rverybody knows that neither do I've any relations...

...nor do I consider anybody my relative.

Does our relationship hold no value?

It could be. Perhaps that's why you sacrificed your medals for me.

You should've let me rot behind bars.

By going to jail, one doesn't lose one's life.

One who is born will die some day.

Somebody is calling you.

- I've heard. I'm not a deaf. - Why don't you see who it is?

The shirt is so dirty. Don't you ever take a bath?

One doesn't bath too often.

- Ikka has summoned you. - What can I do?

- He's called you. - There's unrest in my house.

Let me settle my matter. I'll come if I find time.

- Listen to me... - I mean to say...

Your son has burdened me with a favour. I never asked for it.

Why're you hassling mother?

I treated it as my duty. You treat it as a favour.

I've just done my duty. Stop quarelling now.

Who were those people? - They were Ikka's men.

I'm the cause of so many births and deaths in this locality.

Minister, I distribute bribes on the first day of every month.

Why do you address me as a minister?
