Archana Teacher (അർച്ചന ടീച്ചർ)

You should walk the rest of the way

as there is no road to drive through.

That is the school.

Are you Ms. Archana Devi? - Yes.

Please come quickly. The board members are waiting for you.

Greetings!

Are you Ms. Archana Devi? - Yes.

I'm sorry I am late.

I didn't know that the taxi

wouldn't be able to bring me all the way to the school.

I had to walk a long way after the taxi dropped me.

Oh! You took that road!

If you would've taken the road through Aruvikkara

the taxi would've dropped you at the school gate.

Please take your seat. - You just had to walk a little.

You would have to pay Rs. 15 more if you'd taken the other route.

She is our headmistress. - Greetings.

Could you tell me why you are keen on working here after completing

Masters in Arts and Masters in Education?

Why didn't you try at a college?

I don't think that I am capable enough to teach at a college.

I also feel that I would be more content teaching small children.

That's a fact!

I was born and brought up in a city.

I've always dreamt of living and working in a village.

Do you have any prior experience working in a school?

I'd mentioned that I haven't worked

anywhere before in my application.

I do not have any prior experience as a teacher.

Desire and dedication are the two most important qualifications.

You'll gain experience and learn as you teach.

If that's the case, I don't have anything more to ask.

Why aren't you asking any questions, sir?

If we appoint people who are highly qualified

they will leave the job when they get better offers.

I will not leave.

Are you sure? - Yes. I'm sure.

I didn't introduce myself.

This is my school.

I figured that.

If we appoint you here, will you travel from home every day

or are you open to staying somewhere nearby?

If there are suitable places to stay here

I'm open to relocating.

That would be better.

But do you have someone who can accompany you?

I can ask someone from home to accompany me.

That solves the problem.

What do you say, Ms. Deviamma?

As there was not enough teachers to finish the portions last term

we must finish portions of three terms in the upcoming two terms.

I'll try and do my best

with complete dedication.

You are appointed.

This school requires more teachers

who have a similar mentality to serve people.

I have a house that is vacant.

You can stay there.

Mr. Gangadharan Pillai! - Yes, sir.

Please clean the house behind the library.

Ms. Archana will stay there.

Please come.

Is everything ready, Mr. Gangadharan Pillai? - Yes, sir.

Please come.

The house is not all that great.

This is the living room. That's the kitchen.

The bathroom is on the other side.

This is the bedroom.

That is the prayer room.

If you need anything else.. - This is good enough.

They will help you

until someone is able to join you from home. - Okay.

I'll leave, then. - Okay.

"The dawns are so beautiful"

"Isn't the sky beautiful?"

"The flowers are so beautiful"

"and so are the blossoms on earth."

"The dawns are so beautiful"

"Isn't the sky beautiful?"

"Who is the creator of the dawn?"

"Who is the owner of the blooming flowers?"

"Who is the creator of the dawn?"

"Who is the owner of the blooming flowers?"

"Lord Almighty! The one with kindness the size of an ocean

"and is the epitome of strength."

"The Lord Almighty!"

"The dawns are so beautiful"

"Isn't the sky beautiful?"

Why did you leave without informing any of us, my dear?

We were really worried until we got your telegram.

The professor was extremely upset.

He was relieved only after he got the telegram.

What you said is right, Mr. Nanu.

But if I would've waited to inform everybody and then come

it wouldn't have happened.

All of you would've followed me.

Your willpower, my dear girl!

My willpower, isn't it?

I'm not going back.

"The earth revolves around the sun."

"The moon revolves around the earth."

"This journey will forever continue"

"due to the strength of gravity."

"It is the water that evaporates from the sea"

"that later takes the shape of clouds"

"which then pours down as rain."

"The land's thirst will be quenched."

"One washes the other."

"This world is a place of kindness."

"Love is the emotion"

"that spreads colour in the world."

We'll continue tomorrow.

Why aren't you leaving?

It's time for the veneration, ma'am.

Let's go.

I've been waiting for so long!

I'll go to the temple and come, Mr. Nanu.

I won't be late.

Today is Monday. It's an auspicious day.

Can I ask you something, my dear?

What is it, Mr. Nanu?

Did you just simply visit the temple

or is there some fast you are taking?

Why would I fast?

The Monday fast!

I noticed that you hadn't eaten anything today.

That's why I thought so.

That's because I wasn't hungry.

I thought you might've taken the Monday fast

when you went to the temple.

I was extremely happy.

What for?

Do you need me to explain, my dear?

What happened, ma'am? Are you unwell?

Why are you late?

I didn't get the bus on time.

The manager is coming. I'll go, ma'am.

Hello. - Hello.

Why are you standing here alone?

It looks like our manager is going to break

his principles of Gandhism and renunciation.

I'm sure it will happen.

Will she be the one to rule over us then?

What do we do then?

Bear with it. What else?

What has to happen will happen!

Why would she work here

after clearing her Master's in Education?

I knew something was wrong when she came for the interview.

She must've done something bad back in the city.

The manager seems to have fallen prey to her trap!

I don't think anything can rescue him from it now!

"Bound by a curse, it rests in the dark."

"The Veena at rest.."

"This Veena at rest contains the song of my soul."

"Bound by a curse, it rests in the dark."

"Though the strings are filled"

"with a yearning for life.."

"Though the strings are filled"

"with a yearning for life.."

"The Veena rests silently."

"Gone are the fingers"

"that gave rise to its tunes."

"Time flew bearing"

"the sorrows within."

"The time flew.."

"This Veena at rest contains the song of my soul."

"Bound by a curse, it rests in the dark."

"My life is a garden abandoned by the spring."

"A garden that has to bear the blazing heat of the Sun."

"Even though it remembers"

"its fragrant past.."

"Even though it remembers"

"its fragrant past.."

"The garden faded away without a spring season."

"The spring, which the garden thought was"

"its friend, chose to move away."

"I can't remember why"

"I chose to live this solitary life."

"I can't remember why.."

"This Veena at rest contains the song of my soul."

Teacher..

Teacher, I've noticed that while you teach children

through songs and otherwise, especially today, I sense

something is troubling you from deep within.

What is it? Tell me.

I really care for the people who work

in my institution.

If there is anything that worries you

you can always tell me.

I'm all right, sir.

It's just that I get lost in the emotion

of the words when I read good poetry.

Can I believe what you said? - Of course, you can.

I'm one of the happiest people on the planet
