Adalat

Dharma... Your wife has just delivered.

What? - A bonny baby boy.

Just hold this.

The little master has arrived.

Myy respects... what did I say?

Always be victorious.

God will bless your wife and the child with a long life.

You should thank your wife for gifting you with a baby-boy.

Sure. I'll thank her right now.

Where're you going, brother? - To the room.

What for? - I forgot my overcoat.

It's lying outside.

I've to take some cattle feed.

The cattle feed is kept inside or outside the room?

Why don't you say that you want to see my nephew.

If you know that, then why don't you let me in?

I will. But you'll have to give me a silver coin.

Take this. - But this is only 50 paise.

Right now, I've only this much.

I'll present you an ear-ring and 11 rupees. How much?

Eleven rupees. - Yes.

Greetings lady. - Only greetings will not do.

I want 5 coconuts, half a kilo jaggery and eleven rupees.

Then only will I allow you inside.

I've arranged for everything.

20 coconuts, jaggery and 21 rupees. How much?

Twenty one rupees. - Yes.

Go and take from the uncle sitting outside on the cot.

What are you doing?

Uncle told me that a boy has been born in this family after a long time...

and he also asked me to thank you for this. So I'm thanking you.

Show me his face.

He's as good-looking as his father.

Salutations, little master. How are you?

Didn't you recognize me? I'm your father.

Why is he not answering?

Stupid. How can he speak?

Why not? But will he speak in three or four days?

No. It'll take six months. ... How many months?

Six.

No, in six months, I'll make him plough the fields.

Did you plough the fields in six months?

Forget ploughing. I started romancing with you.

Don't lie. Didn't I fall for you?

Who's there?

Brother, come out. The midwife is looking for you.

Yes. I'm coming.

Didn't you give anything to her? - No.

I had fifty paise which I gave Laxmi.

Don't you worry. I'll arrange for everything right now.

I'm worried for you. We're not two but one.

Being the eldest, all the responsibility is on your shoulders.

I also know that you're worried about Laxmi's marriage.

There's no guarantee of the crops.

And now, we have a new-born.

From where will you get one or two hundred rupees for the functions?

Why are you worried? You shouldn't worry.

One should be sincere and hardworking. Everything will be all right.

I'll fulfill all the responsibilities of my little master.

I just want you to be lost in my love. I'll take care of everything else.

What did I say? - Care.

I'll arrange for some money and will be back soon.

Don't you worry.

Hariya, give me two hundred rupees.

Two hundred rupees? What for?

Don't you know what has happened? - What?

I've been blessed with a baby boy. - A boy?

I need money for the celebrations.

I'll pay you back as soon as I harvest the crops.

Don't say no. Or else...

I'll be humiliated in front of the villagers.

And you know I would leave the village if I'm humiliated.

I'll pay you. But if you wish, you can earn this money in two days.

In two days! How?

Some people have come from the city on a hunting expedition.

You know the jungle very well. And nobody else dares go there.

Go with them and make some money. You will be saved from this debt.

You are right. Where are they? Take me there.

Come along.

So Heer and Veer said they wanted to kill a tiger.

And I thought, why not me too?

They killed a tiger and...

I did more!

Where are they...?

Come along. Don't be scared.

Who's scared?

Look, I've killed the tiger.

Dharma take this. - What letter is this, sir?

It's not a letter.

It contains 300 rupees, which is your hard earned money.

And another 500 rupees for saving my life.

300 rupees is fine. I've worked hard for it.

Why're you paying me for saving your life? It was my duty.

You'll have to take it, for my sake.

If you insist, I'll keep it.

Dharma, why don't you come to the city?

What will I do there?

I was born here and will die here one day.

What will I do there? Tell me.

We need an honest and courageous man like you.

I'd suggest that you come to the city and start working for us.

What can this illiterate do in the city?

What do you take me for? Well?

"Do not take me for an idiot... "

"I'm a very useful man"

"Do not take me for an idiot... "

"I'm a very useful man"

"I can very well make out... "

"who's a good man and who's evil"

"Do not take me for an idiot... "

"I'm a very useful man, sir"

"A very useful man"

"I once went into the forests... "

"and ran into the bandits"

"One held a rifle... "

"another held a knife"

"And I asked... "

"how many are you?"

"They said, '10' "

And I said, "Is that all?"

"I worked on them and they were soon buried"

"Do not take me to be just another guy... "

"I'm a very useful man"

"A very useful man"

"Once, in my village... "

"there came this lady from the city"

"She was happy to see a youth like me"

"She was happy indeed"

"Lovingly then... "

"she gave me a rose"

"I said, you're giving me a rose?"

"She apologized to me and said she had made a mistake"

"Do not think I'm a fool... "

"I'm a very useful man"

"A very useful man"

"I can very well say who's a good man and who's evil"

"Do not take me to be just another guy... "

"I'm a very useful man... "

"A very useful man indeed"

Have you eaten?

Here... eat this. Go on.

Dharma, where have you been since this morning?

What can I say? I'm upset. - Why?

I went to the market place and sold all the crops for 300 rupees.

Only 300 rupees?! - Yes.

Myy land is not fertile.

I can only run the kitchen out of the crop it produces.

Now tell me what I am to do?

I've the responsibility of the marriage of my sister, Laxmi.

Myy parents are no more. How long can I take this burden?

Why don't you go to the city and work for those people?

They had asked you to go to them whenever you needed a job.

You might get a job there.

Yes, I've received a letter from them.

I have an uncle in the city. I can stay at his place.

I'll try that out. See you.

Anybody in? Uncle...?

Greetings Uncle! - Dharma, is that you?

This is Radha, Laxmi and my little master.

Greetings aunt. - Look who is here.

Didn't you recognize me? I'm Dharma.

Dharma? - I seek your blessings aunt.

God bless you all. How did you all come suddenly?

Let them rest and have something to drink.

I'll get some right now.

What was I saying...? What brings you here?

There were these rich men who came to our village. Who was it?

The rich men.

And they've given me a job in the city.

Good! What's left in village anyway?

Since you're already here in the city...

we thought we could stay here till we found alternate...

Of course, you can stay here. It's such a big house.

Big house, my foot!

I've been complaining that it's so small and you must make...

two more rooms for the guests.

You always say that but.. - But what?

We've five rooms. One for him, one for our son, one for the puppy...

Puppy? Who is Puppy?

They have a room for their dog.

We'll accommodate them in the guest room.

We'll manage there. - Yes, aunt.

That room has a carpet worth 5000 rupees.

Who will pay for it, if you damage it?

This is a city. We even recruit servants who are educated.

And you're not literate.

Do you want to hear anything more? Let's leave.

See you, aunt.

Do come sometime. This is your own house.

Tea! Hot, steaming tea!

Come here. - Do you want some tea?

Sit here. - Do you want tea sir?

Yes. Give me a cup of tea. - Full or half.

What's that? - Do you want full or half?

What's full or half? - Tea, sir.

Give me some tea. I don't follow you.

You seem to be new in Bombay.

We've just come from Bhind Myorena. Myy forefathers are from Allahabad.

I own land in Bhind Myorena.

Are you a native of Bandit Myansingh's village?
