Maro Charitra

Man is born from love...

He lives searching love...

When he finds love, he fights for it...

If he wins the fight, for that happiness,

he comes back again and again...

What if he loses? He'll come back again to win.

That's why love which is ever winning, boundary less, death less,

indeed it is very old,

only the lovers are new!

Stop it!

Aren't you the bad omen?

Pat your cheeks for saying that.

Lord Surya! They're not letting me offer prayers peacefully.

Hello, aunty! I'm America Durga here!

Are you all fine there?

Has the cow delivered the calf? The black cow.

Don't ask about me.

If I tell you, you'll catch a flight immediately to here.

What am I to tell you? There's a machine for everything here.

Machine to sweep, clean vessels, washing clothes, for everything.

Is it mouth or speaker box?

They are new to America.

Should they've to speak so loud?

She always start when I offer my morning prayers.

Her voice raises before sun rises.

Why does she always chides her husband?

She's very brave woman.

What's the time now there?

I asked what's the time and line got cut.

Called Vizag?

Called Bush's wife!

Why did you bring me to America?

Everyone here speaks in English only. They kill me with their English.

Nobody can speak Telugu here.

My native Anakapalli is much better than America.

We get everything at door step, sellers calling at home.

Even for curry leaves, we've to travel a long distance.

Are you listening to me?

Your daughter has gone to bring provisions long time back,

still hasn't come back.

BHAVANI

Where's that white scapegoat who helps me everytime?

Oh milk!

Where can I find it?

Do I've to go that far?

I'll take this.

Did you bring Bengal gram?

Did you bring milk?

You've reached home, why are you still making gestures?

Can't you speak? - I'll punch you.

no use of ordering me sitting in home,

you'll know if you go out, how with great difficulty I'm managing outside.

You know to speak in English, right? Why don't you speak?

They don't know the English we know. I can't understand their English.

I was making gestures and they're pitying me thinking I'm dumb.

You can buy provisions with gestures but can't run a family.

Learn quickly this whiteman's English before your marriage is settled.

What?

What? Should I learn English for him?

He'll speak in Telugu for me.

How are you doing, son?

Are you coming tomorrow?

Have you forgotten it? Prayer. - Pooja?

Pooja isn't a girl but God. Are you coming or not?

What busy?

Always studies! Just like me!

What's this son? You said you'll not come.

My dear son! I too missed you, that's why I called you.

Are your studies going on well?

Why did you bring back all your luggage?

Why?

I can't cook. - It's not cook, it's stay.

Won't you go back to college?

I'll make hot dosas for you. Your daddy will not agree.

That's what my problem is.

Mango with mashed pulse, mango pickle, pudding, all your son's favourites.

It seems poor boy doesn't like the course.

It's a great course! How can he not like it?

Poor boy needs little change.

Change doesn't mean small coins, he has to sit idle for 6 months.

What do you think?

Let him study what he likes...

I know what he must study. Use my guidance, useless fellow.

For me husband is a big problem.

BHAVANI

Greetings Krishnamachari! How do you do?

Greetings Paul, duty as police officer is over.

Join the other duty. Please come in.

Our Gods are 3 crores, three fourths of people here are goons,

Until I catch them I can't touch them.

What to do? Ours is Karma philosophy.

So me must do our duty first and then pray to God,

what do you say?

Is everything ready for the prayers?

Entire family must be here.

Ate the laddu!

Are you doing fine, Swapna?

Hello priest! Tomorrow is Telugu new year, will you open year almanac?

It won't be nice to open, I'll read.

So, it's good time ahead for the people of Aries zodiac sign,

they will have children too,

Ariens will be very happy,

next zodiac sign is Taurus. - Your mother's sign.

Position will be very bad.

Already it's sign is bull, scolding others and getting scolded is routine to them.

Very bad tempered people.

How much ever they may pray, but no use.

It's losses all the way.

Next zodiac sign is Sagittarius.

Always tensed. Future isn't good for them too.

Though they earn well, all their hard money will go waste.

It'll go to the drain. - I'll pay fees and he's waste it.

Please leave it.

But only one good sign, they will buy new vehicle.

Hello Sagittarian! I'm telling about you only.

You said I'll lose money.

You can smile today atleast, today is Telugu new year.

This year Taurus and Sagittarians will be at loggerheads.

Gone! - Now zodiac sign Capricorn.

This year will be special to them.

But they are obstinate people, they will never listen to anyone.

Let all the Telugu people of the world start the new year by chanting God's name.

Swapnasundari, please sing a good devotional song.

Start!

He's right before me, that boy..

A heart stealing idol, is it a boon...

We devoutly offer prayers to him...

Mother!

What happened, dear?

The boy who snatched dollars from my hand, he...

Did you see that thief? Where is he? Where is he?

I haven't yet seen him, mother.

Why did you raise an alarm then?

That is...that is...was practicing what I should on seeing him.

Silly girl! Silly act!

I'll punch you!

What do you mean by 'Punch'?

How am I to explain you?

That is...

You and your dad can understand practical only.

Mother...mother...

What? - Nothing.

Was practicing how to call you on seeing the dollar thief.

You come inside. Always raising false alarm.

Salutations to the mischievous 16 years age that's playing mischief in you and me...

BHAVANI

No, I'm not afraid of you.

You won't harm me, I know it.

The moment I saw you, my search ended.

I knew where my destination is. I'm not afraid of you.

I feel like I've found what I had lost.

I feel we were born for love only.

You're new to my eyes but very old to my heart.

A strange bond has united a flower with a bee...

Will it become love knowingly or unknowingly...

BHAVANI

Heart is dumb...it can't speak...

Love is one thing it knows...

There is bond without any language...

It has united us...

Why?

What do you mean by, why?

I'm in your heart, you're in my heart.

Why should we meet then?

I'm in your heart, you're in my heart.

Why should we meet then?

What's it son?

What is 'heart'? - It means heart!

Heart? It's not in our clan at all.

Salutations to the mischievous 16 years age that's playing mischief in you and me...

Why is he boasting?

Hey bloody! Look at me!

Look at me I say!

Look at me...look...look...please...

BHAVANI

Where are you?

Hey you bloody idiot! Where are you?

When did you come?

Who is that bloody idiot?

Just like that.

Why did you go away without talking to me?

I'm in your heart, you're in my heart.

Without talking to you for sometime...

I'll punch you.

It's not possible America Durga. - Punch you!

I think it's some American, go answer the call. Go!

I won't go, you answer him.

You're sitting idle here, go and see.

He's ringing the bell again, he'll speak in English, you go.

Why am I facing so many difficulties in this young age?

Is it so difficult to answer the door bell?

Mother, he's speaking in English.

Just say go...go...

Who is he?

He's a computer repairer.

Has it dawned to the whiteman now?

Tell him to come in.

Come.

Why did you come here?

Mother! - What?
