Dharam Sankat Mein Page #4

Tell her, she has to be

free and uninhibited.

Just be free.

- Yes.

But, Uncle, these are our

values.

My dear, you are too young to get

caught up in the values' tangle.

Both of you love each other, right?

Yes.

- You love each other, right?

That's settled then!

And you know what they say...

...if the couple is willing, what will

Neelanand be able to do about it?

That's all very well, Uncle,

but...

...I don't want to hassle my dad.

Why can't you be a bit religious?

It's really simple.

Just pray a bit.

Apply the tilak (sect marking)

and wear a cap. That's all.

Well, if you kids want me to

wear a cap, I'll do that too.

Alright, then, we'll meet.

Okay. - Bye, dear.

- Okay, bye.

Bye, Uncle.

- Okay. - Hail Neelanand.

Hail Neelanand.

If the girl says bye,

say bye darling, say, bye love.

Why are you saying Neelanand?

If you do this at the

wedding night...

...then, she'll grow a beard

and become an ascetic. Get it?

Come on, dad! That is ridiculous.

- "Come on, dad!"

Dad.

- Yes.

I found a very rare, very old

clip of Manchala.

What are you talking about?

- Yes.

And you are telling me this, now?

"I'm the Sardar (leader) of

Bhangra, do you know, baby?"

"It's unending, do you know, baby?"

What's going on, dad?

In those days, Manchala...

...was accused of trafficking

while conducting foreign tours.

That when this clip was taken.

He was an amazing singer.

I wonder where he is?

What is this?

Dad!

Yes?

I took life membership of the

Neel Parivar (family) today.

They gave me a ten percent

discount.

Besides, they gave me

the Neel granth free.

Wow.

- We must read this and obey it.

Obey it.

The Neel Parivar's book is blue.

Does your Baba watch blue (adult)

films, too?

Dad!

Here.

Get your act together.

Yes, Dharam Bhai.

Any news of the man

who created me?

I have put some of my men

on the job.

All of us are doing

our best, to find out.

God willing, we will know

soon enough.

Okay, listen, let's meet

at home, tonight.

That's enough!

Drink up.

Mehmood Bhai? In Ahmadabad?

I have a permit.

- In that case, cheers.

What is it?

Is this Scotch?

- Yes.

It's orange flavored.

I'll give you some that's lemon

flavored the next time you visit.

Did you find out what happened?

Your Muslim dad?

Not my dad, my biological father.

Okay, cool down!

Let me tell you a story.

Listen, Dharam Bhai.

Your dad isn't...

...what you think he is.

What do you mean?

I have a friend.

Dr. Farooque.

Coincidentally,

he knows your father.

He was telling me that

your father...

...was admitted to his clinic

a couple of times.

And according to Dr. Farooque...

...your father is a very good man.

When you were an infant...

...your mother expired.

In those days, your father

had a financial crisis at home.

Later, he got hired

as a driver in Kuwait.

That's why, he had to leave.

He was helpless and so

he forced himself...

...to hand you over to a relative.

He went to Kuwait.

The custodian of the child

began to find it a burden.

That's when the relative

took the child...

...that is you, and handed

you over to the orphanage.

Four years later, when your father

came back from Kuwait...

...he found out about all this.

God knows, how he felt

at that time.

He went to the orphanage,

searching for you.

But, Mr. Trivedi

had adopted you by then.

The authorities didn't even tell

him who the adoptive parents were.

He was really traumatized.

Due to that sorrow,

he didn't even marry again.

I believe, he has donated all

his worldly goods to charity.

And these days, he is in the Khwaja

Garib Nawaz sanatorium...

...at Sarkhej, living out

the last days of his life.

Oh, God! Your story is

like a movie!

Alright, please wait.

Here he is.

Dad!

- What are you doing?

You will make me a sinner!

This is taboo.

I am not your father.

Why are you calling me dad?

No, brother, he told me that...

I know. I understand

your feelings.

Come on.

I will explain it.

Now, Meer Shaukat Ali is over 80

by the grace of God.

He's 80 years old?

- By the grace of God.

May God grant him

a long life, but...

...at present, he is not too well.

That's why I am saying that...

That is what I am saying too,

brother.

You see, a man who...

...has lived his entire life

chanting the name of God...

...and if he meets his only

son in the last days of his life...

...and he finds out his son

is not a Muslim.

Just think of how shocked

he will be!

He will be terribly upset.

Right?

So, you mean, I can't meet him?

-You can meet him.

Yes. -You can meet him.

I didn't say that.

Okay'

But, I would like you to meet

him in a way that...

...he feels happy.

He must not regret it.

He should breathe his last

with pride.

He must not die due to the shock.

Do you understand?

Come this way.

- So, how can I meet him?

As a good Muslim.

You do know what a good Muslim

is like.

Yes. What is a Muslim like?

They have long beards

up to here.

They hitch up their trousers.

They have black marks on their

forehead and..

Oh, God! May the Lord have mercy!

That means, you really don't know

anything about Muslims.

Come along.

That's why I was telling you...

...you should find out

all about Muslims...

...and then come back here.

God willing, you can meet

your father, then.

Can't I just meet him?

I'll tell him that I am a Muslim.

And that my name is Wasim Akram.

Or, Nawaz Sharif.

- You're lying in the abode of God.

And in front of a clergyman!

Let's have some other name.

First of all, it is not Nawaj,

it is Nawaz.

Nawaz?

- Yes, Nawaz.

N awaz.

So, you can leave.

Learn the ways and customs.

Get some information.

And, then you can meet your

father.

Good bye.

N awaz.

N awaz.

Wretched clergyman!

He wants to make you a Muslim.

Don't worry.

This is your legal and fundamental

right to meet your father.

I'll draft out a notice to him.

Under Section 340.

He'll get back on track at once.

Please don't issue any notice.

Or everyone will notice me.

If people find out that I was

born a Muslim...

...then, that's the end of it.

I'll become a social outcast.

The kids aren't married yet.

Whatever has to be done has

to be done on the sly.

I wouldn't have scaled the wall and

come over at midnight, otherwise.

So, you will become a Muslim.

It really doesn't make

any difference to me.

Make me a Muslim,

make me a wrestler or whatever.

That's the very least I can do to

meet my dad.

Tell me something.

You never met your father,

you've never seen him.

There has been no connection.

Why are you longing

to meet him?

I want to see...

...what is a father like?

I was four years old,

when my dad died.

I have never seen him.

Forget about that,

and just tell me something.

These Muslims ways and customs...

...I mean, saying the prayers

and whatever.

Rituals, customs, traditions,

call it what you will.

Teach me that.

Okay?

That's it, then!

- Marhaba!

What?

- Marhaba!

Marhaba?

Cheers! Marhaba.
