Grahasti

Now start it.

Did you see? You didn't tighten the nut.

He is the best boss.

Here, there is no difference between boss and workers.

Look. He is still using his old car.

Neither his car nor his nature has changed.

This is how a man should be.

Come. Come. You also come.

Mother. Mother, father has come.

Look, father had come, mother.

Come. Come. Come on.

Daddy. Daddy, what did you bring for me?

Yes. Yes. Yes.

Motor for me. - Motor.

And my airplane. - First keep quiet.

Tell me. What should all of you do when I arrive?

I know. I know. All of us should stand in a line.

Right, father? - So stand in a line.

Come on. Begin. - Yes. See this.

One. - Two.

Three. - Four.

Five. - Six.

Seven. - Eight.

Mother, you also come.

Why are you standing so far, mother? You will also have to come.

Come on. - Yes, mother. You can't escape.

Why are you behaving childishly?

Look, mother. - If you don't stand in the line..

..father won't give you your present.

Come on, mother. - Go away. You also go.

Look, father. Mother is not standing in the line.

Don't give her any present.

No?

Buntu.

You wanted an airplane, right? - Yes, father.

Yes. See this. It has arrived from Bangalore.

And it will go to Delhi.

Run after it.

Bittu, you wanted a dancing doll, right? - Yes.

See this.

Take it. Take it.

Tunni, jeep for you.

Sit on it and go for a drive. Go.

Munni, which toy did you want?

Not toy, father. I wanted a fairytale book.

One that has flying horse, talking bird and..

And a princess who has golden locks like Munni.

Take this.

Thank you, father.

Vijju, I have got an alarm clock for you.

Let me see whether it rouses you or you put it to sleep.

And here is your transistor radio.

Thank you, father. - Why are you taking it?

Father got it for me. Right, father?

It's so nice. I want this transistor, father.

The other day she lost my transistor at the college picnic.

The guilty one is accusing the innocent one.

Did I lose it? Or you lost it? - You.

Enough. Enough. Enough.

I know who lost her transistor.

But Kamini, this is not for you.

Why are you angry, Kamini?

Look, what I have got for you. See this.

See this.

Camera. Father.

Are both of you happy? - Yes.

Thank you. - Thank you.

My eldest daughter Kamla, did your husband send you any letter?

What is this, father?

Why do you feel shy? Look, I have got a silver frame for you.

Father, what will sister do with the frame?

You don't know. She will keep brother-in-law's photo in it.

What else will the poor girl do?

She used to hide it under the pillow.

Enough. Enough. Enough. - Naughty girl.

Sister.

Why are you hiding your face? I didn't bring anything for you.

I don't want anything. - No?

You have come, Harish? - Yes, sister.

Look, the house becomes so lively when you come.

All of us wait for Friday. - I know, sister.

But what rule have you made, Harish?

Others also run factories and mills.

Is this what everybody does?

You come home on Friday. And you leave on Monday.

These five days you work in the factory as if it is your home.

Why, brother? Why are you being unjust to us?

Sister, you ask me the same question every week.

It's true I am not at home five days a week.

But I am here the other two days.

Did you see, sister? He talks so shrewdly.

He comes home because the factory..

..is closed on Saturday and Sunday.

Otherwise he would have spent these two days also at his factory.

If you work so hard, you will fall ill.

I can't argue with both of you.

Yes. Where is my nephew? Jaggu.

I had sent him to the shop to buy flour.

He has still not come.

Uncle has come.

Tommy.

What?

Tommy. Tommy.

Tommy. I won't spare you.

Aunt. Aunt. Aunt.

Look, what brother has done to himself!

Hello, uncle. - Hello is fine, Jaggu.

What have you done to yourself? What is this?

It's flour. - Flour? Flour?

Uncle, I was bringing flour from the shop.

I saw your car. Seeing your car I remembered my gift.

So you dropped the flour. - Yes.

No. It fell down.

Okay.

Uncle, give me my present. - Yes.

Yes. He has achieved a great feat.

On top of that give him a present too.

Take this, Jaggu.

What is this?

A cap. A cap.

Thank you, uncle. Thank you.

Mother. Mother, look. Uncle has brought a cap for me.

A cap.

What is this?

Who is he?

Must be something wrong with the mirror.

Oh, God. I was destined to give birth to such a fool.

He says something is wrong with the mirror.

You look like a circus joker. Give me.

You are useless.

I hired an Englishman to teach you English.

He learnt Hindi. But you didn't learn English.

You went to the factory. You worked there for so long.

But you didn't gain any sense.

I gave you household chores to do.

And you can't even do that properly.

Useless fellow.

Don't get angry, sister. Nobody is useless in the world.

Every man is capable of something.

Poor boy is innocent. I like Jaggu a lot.

Brother, is there anyone in the world whom you dislike?

Good people like everyone, brother.

Come on. Go and freshen up.

I am cooking something special for you. - Is that so?

What, mother? - My foot.

What is this, sister? Since morning you are in the kitchen.

Give me. I will do it.

Nobody needs to work as long as I am there.

I am still strong. You don't know what Harish likes.

Look at this.

Who can explain to you, sister?

Okay. Go, take this hot food. Go.

What happened?

What are you looking at?

I am looking...I can't believe it. - What?

You are the mother of eight children. - Get lost.

Really. You still look the same as you did on our wedding day.

Enough. One should learn from you how to praise.

Come on. Eat.

Eat.

I will bring some more. If I stand here, you won't eat.

What do you mean? - What are you doing? Leave me.

Leave me. - I eat everyday.

You stay here..

What happened? - Sister.

Sister? Where?

Maya.

Take this, brother. Leave that.

Hot 'Kachori' (Fried Snack). Take it.

Enough, sister. Enough. Enough.

Did you see? Sister saw. - What did she see?

Come on. Eat. I am going.

What childishness is this?

I will eat only if you stay here.

Okay. Fine. I will stay here.

Come on. Eat. Come on.

Have betel leaf.

What is this? You come home for two days a week.

And you are reading.

Maya.

Come here.

Got upset?

Shall I ask you something? You won't feel bad, will you?

What? - Build a bungalow near your factory.

So that all of us can live there.

I don't like it that you come on Friday and leave on Monday.

Maya.

In your absence these five days seem as long as five centuries.

You always say that. Did something happen?

Look, Maya. All of us are so happy and content. Right?

When I come home every week after five days..

..in their joy everybody creates a furor in the house.

Children jump with delight when they see me.

They cling to me.

You tell me.

If I return home everyday, this happiness, joy, excitement..

..can it happen everyday?

Whenever I discuss it with you, you laugh it off.

I don't know when you will understand my feelings.

What do you want?
