Madhumati (मधुमती)

What's the time? - 8:10.

8.10! We are very late. Please drive fast.

Are you crazy?

It's a stormy night and the roads are bad.

No one can save us if the car skids even a bit,

We've just covered 10 miles so far, with 22 to go.

Why don't you drive faster? - Why are you in such a hurry?

First of all, we got the car late,

if we reach the station late.

Radha, who's waiting with our baby, will be worried.

Whether sister-in-law is worried or not,

but you're anxious to see your wife and child.

I can't argue with you. You please drive fast.

Sir, there has been a land-slide because of the rain.

So what are you waiting for? Clear the road.

Come on. Let's help him. - Ok.

Take the rain coat.

What happened?

Sir, these are big rocks. We can't move them.

Sit in the car.

I'll get some men from the next village. - Quick.

Sir, it'll take time to clear the road.

You can rest at the landlord's mansion up there.

Don't worry about us. Bring the men fast.

Dev, we'll catch cold in this rain.

Let's go to that mansion. There might be a fireplace there.

I'll sit here. - It won't help clear the road.

C'mon.

No one's here? Let's go. - Now that we are here, let's check.

Who opened the door?

I did. The latch is there.

And you are?

We were stuck on the road because of the land-slide.

Can we wait here?

Sure, why not? Please come in.

This mansion seems to be very old.

There was a picture hanging here, right?

Yes, but it broke last year in an earthquake.

Strange! How did you know about the picture?

I don't know. I just felt there was a picture here.

You should've been a detective, not an engineer.

Can you light a fire here? It's very cold. - Sure.

Please come upstairs. - Upstairs?

Yes. I'll light a fire.

Will you amble throughout the night?

That stupid driver hasn't sent any news.

He'll take time to find labourers at this time and in such a weather.

Check, if the rain has abated.

Doctor. - Yes?

Did you see a lake outside the window? - Yes.

But how did you know about it? Have you been here before?

No.

But ever since I entered this mansion,

everything seems familiar.

Friend, this is because of anxiety.

I have some brandy. Drink some and sleep. - No, thanks.

Who? - What happened?

Did you hear a girl shouting? - No.

Maybe I was mistaken.

Devendra!

What are you looking at? - This picture.

I painted it.

What? This picture must be very old.

I don't know about that.

But I know its every brushstroke.

What happened? What was that noise?

Ugranarayan.

Who is this Ugranarayan? - He was the last landlord.

This is his picture.

But Devendra, how do you know that?

I don't know.

But I painted this picture.

Sir!

Sir!

I remember everything.

Very clearly.

I don't know when this happened.

Perhaps, in my last life.

I came to here as the manager for Ugranarayan's forest.

It was a beautiful day.

The nature itself was singing.

As if to welcome me.

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"I'm afraid that I might get lost here."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"Who's smiling while hiding in the flowers?"

"Whose music does the spring yearn for?"

"Whose music does the spring yearn for?"

"Whose music does the spring yearn for?"

"There's music around as if the earth is dancing."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"I'm afraid that I might get lost here."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"These streams flow as if they're going to meet their lover."

"These streams flow as if they're going to meet their lover."

"Such lovely scenes, adorn this place.."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"I'm afraid that I might get lost here."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"The sky is descending to meet the earth."

"The sky is descending to meet the earth."

"This is the first time I'm seeing such a union"

"The sky is descending to meet the earth."

"This is the first time I'm seeing such a union"

"Maybe I'll find my world and dreams here."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"I'm afraid that I might get lost here."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

"The journey is pleasant and the weather is lovely."

Sir, don't move ahead!

"Come,"

"O traveller."

Brother, is this the way to Shamghad or that one?

I get it.

Not down, up here.

Oh god!

Don't be scared. I'm not human.

So who are you?

If you throw another 25 paisa, I'll tell you.

I will, but come down first.

Really? Here.

Which road goes to the Shamgadh's timber estate?

Shamgadh? Timber estate? Mr. Anand?

Are you Mr. Anand? - Yes. I already said that.

I'm Charandas. I'm here to receive you. Where's your luggage?

At the station.

Then the luggage can come later. You come with me.

It's a beautiful place.

It looks beautiful to you, right?

Ask me. It took me 3 days to clean it.

There was dirt in my nose, in my mind.

Even alcohol couldn't have cleared this dirt.

You're really very tired.

Why don't you have a cup of tea? - I don't need it.

Should I get some for you?

Sir, you're new here. Please be careful.

People of all ages here are thieves.

And the accountant is the biggest..

The best person here.

Sir, I was praising you. You'll live long.

Greetings, sir. - Greetings.

Did you have difficulty getting here? - No.

I sent Charan.

He's a drunkard and there's a liquor shop on the way.

Anyway, did he reach the station?

Yes. Right, Charan?

Yes. If I didn't, how could he come here? - Ok.

Accountant. - Yes?

Everything is fine. I'll come to work from tomorrow.

I'm overseeing the work. Don't worry about that.

You just got here. Please rest for a couple of days.

Tour the area. The panorama here is lovely.

But it's unfortunate that,

the land is as beautiful as the people are bad.

You're new here. Please take care.

Everyone here is a thief.

And he's their king.

I'm your disciple. - You fool!

What? - If sir is inconvenienced, you'll be punished.

Don't worry. I won't bother him.

But he can, if he wants.

Sir, please rest and tell me if you need anything.

Greetings. - Greetings.

Why are you standing there? - What?

Won't you've some tea? - Oh! Sure.

"Come,"

"O traveller."

"I've been standing on this bank for so long."

"My eyes are tired of this long wait."

This is our area.

The old king handed us the work. Things were great then.

But unfortunately he died a few days ago.

Now his son manages his business.

Where is his son nowadays?

He's in the city. He's a spoilt brat.

He wasn't allowed to even come here.

But since he's the owner, he'll come back soon. - greetings!

Greetings, Veer Singh.

Sir, he's Veer Singh. He looks after the work here.

He's our new manager, Mr. Anand.

Greetings. - Greetings.

Veer Singh, how many trees were cut today?

700. 600 have been sent and 100 around here.

What do you mean?

Do you want to know everything today, sir?

Leave something for tomorrow. Let's go to the office.

Ok.

Accountant? - Yes?

I see many glitches in the accounts.

Never mind, sir.

There are always glitches in such a huge business empire.

But this is bad. It shouldn't happen. - Sorry?

Sir, telegram.

Oh my god!

What happened? - Just what we were fearing.

The king is coming here.

So why are you scared? - Nothing sir.
