Meaning?
If you really want the
backward castes to progress...
then give them the best
possible primary education.
Build special schools for them...
big hostels...
offer scholarships...
provide them every facility
and train them to compete!
Why have this... policy of reservation?!
What you're recommending
should be done in any case.
But, that is precisely what
we haven't done in 60 years.
Hence, reservation
becomes even more essential.
That section of our population,
which is backward simply because of their caste...
small window of opportunity!
Look here, i'm a mother.
Not mother india!
be concerned about my own child.
That is my duty!
For me, if a rule threatens her future,
then it is just plain wrong.
That's it!
Is that so?
Thank you!
The ploy worked perfectly, mithilesh.
The principal made a
statement in support of reservation.
Now you just watch.
If he is not reduced to begging on the streets,
you can change my name!
But, i don't think you
should take this reservation policy lightly.
Baburam sir, it won't
make a jot of a difference.
When seats in the open category decrease,
competition will increase.
And, that is when people will turn
to coaching and private colleges.
This is 'shining' india!
Here people of high society...
are willing to pay any high cost...
for higher education!
Moreover, the reservation
rule may get these people admission.
But, to move ahead in that
too they'll need to spend big money!
Cheers!
What is this?
S.t.m. Should have reservation:
Dr. Prabhakar anand
those words aren't mine.
You mean you didn't say
that you support reservation?
As a teacher, i did express
my personal opinion. But s.t. M...
personal?!
Your opinions are personal
as long as you don't speak.
You're the voice of s.t.m.
Whatever you say will
be taken as s.t.m.'s policy!
You'll have to retract
this statement, prabhakar.
That you support reservation -
you'll have to withdraw that opinion.
I don't consider it necessary
to do any such thing, aniruddha.
Whatever i said...
has deep thought and my conviction.
You are misunderstanding this.
Oh, we've misunderstood him
alright all this while.
But tell him...
politics won't be allowed in this college.
I was thrown out of college, i kept quiet.
But this deceit won't be tolerated.
They'll cancel our seats
and insert a quota system here too.
with prabhakarji once.
Chairman sir, what is left to be discussed?
Call for an emergency meeting of
the trust and get rid of this arrogant fellow!
We've had enough!
Damodarji, a big action like
this will impact s.t.m.'s reputation too.
Why can't you people
see that he is playing politics?
Damodarji...
listen, let me try to
speak with him one more time.
Yes, that'll be best.
Yes, sunny?
When did this happen?
Take care of your mother.
I'm coming across.
Not as a trustee today...
but i'm speaking as a friend.
Till date, i've never
insisted on anything with you.
But, today for once...
just for once, please do what i ask.
On monday, there's an
emergency meeting of trustees at 10 a.m.
I've drafted a brief
clarification on your behalf.
Please sign it.
Please!
Prabhakarji, this statement of yours
has put our college in a serious situation.
What is your agenda?
To support reservations?
The newspaper printed
that statement out of context.
The principal is retracting his statement.
It is my good fortune that
i had the opportunity to...
serve shakuntala thakral college
for 35 years.
However, it is clear now that...
your love...
and your trust...
is no longer available to me.
It is time for me to move on now.
Thank you and...
my best wishes.
Prabhakar...
the board has appointed
mithilesh singh as the principal, sir.
He will destroy everything, sir.
Sir! Please don't go.
Please come, mithileshji.
You've come at the right time.
I personally wanted to
welcome you to the principal's chair.
Thank you. Thank you.
But this chair's tenure has ended
with yours, dr. Prabhakar anand.
I'm calling for a new chair!
Sure... whatever.
I hope that you'll take
s.t.m. To even greater heights.
My best wishes are with you.
Certainly!
And it is also certain that
i'll never let it fall from those heights.
Neither of them is answering their phone.
We can'tjust suddenly ask
them to vacate the house.
But, surely they can arrange
an alternative in a week or so.
Dad, this is the street.
Look, there's shambhu's stable!
Greetings, guruji.
Yes, greetings...
guruji, what's the matter?
All this luggage?
Yes, we had to come to
our house all of a sudden... but...
that is your house! B 47.
But some people put up
these signboards last night.
I don't know...
sir, one minute, sir...
get away!
What's going on here?
K.k. Coaching in my house?!
How can you?
Get out of here right now!
C'mon, get out!
Hello...
sir, prabhakar uncle is here...
i'm coming.
Don't worry.
...and that is the centre of gravity.
Wow!
But, for two years you had...
where's your mother?
We've rented a place to live...
and started a coaching
centre in our house?! Great!
Aren't you students of s.t. M?
I want everybody out of here.
Everybody!
Uncle...
you just shut up!
You have perhaps
no idea what you've done!
Come...
what happened? This?
You??
You had better stay out of this house!
Me?
It is not me, but you
who will go out of the house.
See, these are my
business premises, dr. Prabhakar anand.
And you are creating a nuisance here.
You had said that we
could be here for two years.
Two years? What nonsense!!
In friendship, to offer you support
we gave you this house.
And you betrayed us!
Kamta and i...
fought against commercial coaching,
all our lives.
And here in my own
house you have k.k. Coaching?
So, what could i do?
He kept struggling with you...
but to what end?
Couldn't even build a house for himself.
You did give us shelter,
but we had no earnings.
Thank god for mithileshji
that he showed a way to my sons...
to earn a living and save...
so, do whatever you
wish to in your rented place?
Why are you using our house?
Enough! Enough!
Whoever wants to go wherever, please do.
For two years this place is ours.
So, please don't disturb k.k. Coaching classes.
Now, please...
will you show yourself out or...
should i help?
Don't you dare touch my dad.
Get away!
Let go!
You don't know who i am!
Even if you so much as touch our guruji...
shambhu...
no, guruji...
i'll finish them off!
Shambhu!
Who do you guys think you are?
You don't scare me!
Just that i do not believe in
and practice violence, does not mean that...
this house is ours,
and we won't leave.
Shambhu...
if you have the local
police station's number, then please...
yes...
please come soon.
B 47.
Okay.
Guruji, in fact i was calling them.
