A story of Gautam...

and Govinda

"Uncle, is all the stuff ready? - Absolutely"

Let's go

"Mercy, Master... Mercy!"

Damn you! Cursed woman!

How dare you interfere in Mr Sagar's work?

You ought to be happy that Mr Sagar is painting it

People all over the world will admire it

Your husband will be immortalised. - Only those whose lives...

"are a boon want to be immortalised. Whereas, life is a curse for us"

Uncle

Help! Help!

"Don't inflict this atrocity for your amusement, Master"

Please let him go! - Get lost

Mr Sagar is the King of this region. This is his empire

You are living on what he gives you

And you don't care for his hobbies? What kind of a thing is that?

It's injustice! And I can't tolerate this injustice

Now listen carefully! If anyone utters a word against Mr Sagar...

he'll be the one to be hanged in place of this guy

"Uncle, I want to see the fear of death on this chap's face"

Wow! What a painting!

It looks so real! How did Mr Sagar make this canvas?

Look at you. As if you expect me to tell you how he painted it!

See that fire? It was for real. - What...?

"And that man, he was hung there alive. - What...?"

Till such time as his poverty shows in his tatters...

till such time as there is a crowd of starving masses...

and you don't see a man being burnt alive...

an lndian artist cannot win international acclaim

"You win an Oscar for films, right? For paintings, you win Poscar awards"

"This time, the Poscar award is his for sure"

"ln fact, Mr Sagar has arranged a celebration for that"

"A celebration? - Yes, he has arranged it"

So let's have a celebration! C'mon!

"It's a colourful evening, so let's talk about drinking"

"It's a colourful evening, so let's talk about drinking"

"This is no grave sin... Iet's talking about living it up"

"The cup is brimming, it's going to make you high..."

"we're all here to drink, so let's drink it up..."

you have beautiful company too

"It's a colourful evening, so let's talk about drinking"

"Who says, a drunken man goes berserk?"

"lf there is someone beautiful to serve him, liquor is sheer enjoyment"

"Do you want me to pour some water in your drink?"

"l could even lace it with my youth, if you say so"

"For you, I have come with a drink..."

"raise it to your lips... everything's so mischievous"

You have beautiful company

"It's a colourful evening, so let's talk about drinking"

"This is no grave sin... Iet's talking about living it up"

"Youth is but for a few days, life is short too"

"He who befriends the bottle is a stranger to woes"

Life is all about living it up...

"l could give them a tip or two in leading their lives"

"Take me in your arms, and make love to me..."

"your liquor will do it for you, if you know what I mean..."

my youth pines for you

"It's a colourful evening, so let's talk about drinking"

"This is no grave sin... Iet's talking about living it up"

We want justice!

What racket is that...?

What's the crowd for?

"I've been widowed because of you, Thakur sahib"

My husband is dead!

So take his body to the crematorium and cremate him

You folks always forget your way. - We want to take the right path!

"l see, I had totally forgotten"

Just as man needs to eat while he's alive...

you need money to cremate a dead man

We want an answer!

For how long will our brothers be snatched from us?

For how long will women be widowed? For how long?

You're fond of setting live people on fire and...

"making their paintings, aren't you? So make another painting!"

Set the whole village on fire! Set us all on fire

Turn this village into a village of the dead

And you can yourself play Don! - This is the limit of our tolerance

I'll now have to rein you in!

"Whatever happens now, we won't compromise our position!"

Beat these bloody ingrates!

"Whatever happens, my boy, no compromising our position"

I ruined those villagers with a thrashing

But there's something I don't get. Those who always obeyed you...

"with heads bowed, have now started raising their heads?"

And that Rupa... she started yelling! - Uncle...

I know how to turn a yell into a cry of pain

Present that girl before me

Good God!

"Guys, there goes the fish. Go and get her"

But watch out. She's delicate... she mustn't slip out of your hands

"And listen... whatever happens, no compromising our position"

Who are you? - Messengers of God

We're taking you to God

"We offer women at his feet, not flowers"

Let me go!

Why are you bothering me?

Let me go!

Let me go

"Hello, brothers"

Who the hell are you? - A helpless girl...

and you guys wear masks. You do appear to be scoundrels and monsters

Who are you? - The Messiah of the Downtrodden

And a noose for my enemies. I'm made of iron...

my name is Govinda. - Govinda...

we take less than a second to cut a noose to shreds

Want to see? - Really?

"Since it has already come to proving things, let me tell you something"

I can show you the stars during day-time

Get that? Or want me to explain?

God! What pounding machine is this?

Morons! Thrash him! What are you staring at?

For no reason he challenged a gang of thugs. He's getting thrashed

What's that...? It's all getting messed up

Those who throw their weight around with women mustn't take on a real man

Life becomes miserable for them

Get that? Or do I explain?

Strange! She has taken off! Without as much as thanking me

"Well, never mind"

A true man never really expects to be thanked

"But there is something, Chetak. She gave me the sparks before leaving"

It sure was a huge blow on the heart Did you feel it?

Even stones under my feet don't move when I tread on them

You are my men and you quietly took a beating and came back

"Who was he, Uncle? - I don't know, my boy. I don't know"

This is the first time I saw him. I think he's from another village

So find out! Find him! It's necessary to hunt him down

"Or those who live with their heads bowed, will try to raise their heads"

Find him

"Rupa, tell me the name of the guy who saved your honour"

Govinda. - How was he to look at?

Why ask? He must've been just like Lord Krishna

A grave sin! Who and where is he? I'll break his bloody legs!

They dare outrage the modesty of a girl from my village!

"While I'm very much around! - It wasn't you, was it?"

You accuse me? Here you are

And beat me to death before you level an accusation against me!

How can you say such a thing?

Will someone steal fruits from his own garden?

"So she's a fruit from your garden, is she Uncle?"

Damn you! How often have I told you not to call me uncle?

Bees and flowers have been together for ages

And look at Rupa. She has never called me uncle

There must surely be a relationship between Rupa and me

A jackal and a wolf surely are related

Like the Thakur has people like you for his sidekicks. But I regret...

"I'm neither a jackal, nor a Thakur"

There's no chance of a relationship between you and me

"Go away, Uncle. Look elsewhere"

Look at that!

What did the girl say?

That's your share... everyone happy?

How will we be happy? We're the ones who till our land...

"we do the hard work, we shed our sweat and blood..."

and we get one-fourth of the produce?

It's difficult to spend a couple of months with that much

How will we manage a year? - Look at that

Eat soil! Live on air!

You talk as if you've been living off your own produce all year

"lf you're short of something, take it from Mr Sagar"

What's the big deal? Just put your thumb-impression on a blank paper

And live in debt all our lives? - This chap is talking about debts now

Has anyone ever been rid of a Thakur's debts?

"Those who wanted to free themselves were freed for good, I swear"

We'd rather die. - So die!

"Haria! You too...? Now look, Haria"

You're a lizard. So don't act like a crocodile

"Or forget a wall, you won't be able to crawl even on the ground"

But this injustice! - Shut up

Stop crying! If anyone utters another word...

I'll give him such a slippering...

neither will he feel hungry nor have any teeth!

Pick up your grains

Defang the snake that won't stop biting

There you are! Like it or lump it!

We don't even know you. So why are you interfering in our affairs?

"No interference, friend. I merely finish it off"

"What for? What fault of mine in this? Are you listening, villagers?"

He has threatened me! He has threatened the uncle in the village!
