Doing craft like this by yourself

brings so much pleasure.

But one must keep in touch.

Get it?

Oh, dear, let me see. what happened?

But that Rahmat. .

Look at him. He talks of land.

wherever I go, I see him

standing. Idiot.

He is so concerned about everything.

Do you know how much interest

has accumulated?

go there any more.

But I'm doing fine. I harvest

crops, repay my debt and. .

I work hard everywhere.

You can really manage it all.

You must if you've a family.

Go home. Instead he stands

there in the sun.

He sucks people's blood.

He threatens us with the village

council at the drop of. .

Village council indeed. Idiot.

As if the village council

is his personal property.

Look, do you recognise it?

Is it recognisable?

what are you saying, Uncle Matin?

Not recognise it.

why is it in this state?

Exactly. They were big

landowners at one time.

He went around taking over

the entire village.

Look at it now. It was an epidemic.

A malaria epidemic cleaned

out the entire family.

The entire family.

That is what I say.

who are you doing all this for?

why do you need so much?

I understand.

- what?

Am I not right? Tell me.

I know. I know what you want to say.

No one comes this way

nowadays, right?

who will come here to be assaulted. .

. . by bats and crickets?

At one time, we. .

That was a long time ago.

we played 'cops-and-robbers' here.

we did too. Hide-and-seek.

I remember, I would

be the cop and Meher. .

I know. He is a very fine boy.

But he has to work so hard.

He would be the robber.

He won all the time.
