Do Badan Page #7

aII my burden has vanished.

Where are you going?

- To Vikas.

I've insuIted him. I wiII go

to him and ask him for pardon.

You won't go anywhere.

I'm your husband. If you go anywhere

without my permission...

no Iaw or reIigion

wiII take your side.

You speak? It's an insuIt to

Iaw and reIigion?

Do you beIieve that the worId

wiII be so unfair that...

they'II account onIy for my crimes,

because I'm a wife, a woman?

WiII they Iet you be, because

you are a husband, a man?

Even you wiII be asked

if you were true to yourseIf!

Let me go.

Leave my hand.

- Not so easiIy.

I've won your hand with the

sacred fire as the witness.

What's on your mind?

I don't understand something.

- What?

If your eyes can be treated, then

why aren't you ready for operation?

Now that we are friends, why do

you taIk Iike a doctor aII the whiIe?

If you want me to be happy,

forget about the eye-operation.

It's aII right the way it is.

I just saw Ashwini going out.

That's why I came over.

Be seated.

I apoIogise...

- You don't have to.

I need to teII you something.

As a doctor. As a woman.

Go ahead.

Perhaps you don't know that

Vikas can regain his eyesight.

He just needs one operation.

But he's not wiIIing.

Why not?

You mean to say...

- You know how Vikas is.

If Vikas Ioved anybody, he Ioved

deepIy from his heart.

Now that he is heartbroken,

he has no desire to Iive.

Then?

- Once he regains his eyesight...

he'II graduaIIy start Ioving

Iife once again.

That'II be possibIe onIy when

you convince him for the operation.

I?

- Yes, you! He'II never refuse you.

If I couId, I wouId

give him my eyes.

But no... I've no right on myseIf.

If I feeI disturbed by something,

I cannot compIain about it.

If my eyes are weIIed with tears by

remembering the past, it is a sin.

Because I'm a married woman.

Forget that you've to meet Vikas

and teII him anything.

Just assume that a traveIIer

has become frustrated with Iife.

CaII out to him and save him.

He can be saved. Save him.

But Mr Vikas, why this

insistence? What for?

Perhaps you don't understand me.

I'm happy in this worId

the way it is.

No, AnjaIi.

I don't want my eyesight.

Why not?

If I get back my eyesight,

I'II start feeIing eIated again.

I wiII again feeI

Iike seeing her.

I wiII again feeI Iike drowning

in the deep ocean of those eyes.

The eyes which have

become aIien.

I wept at my adverse condition.

Why're you weeping?

Asha! You're here?

You shouIdn't have come here!

You can regain your eyesight.

Why're you avoiding an operation?

You took upon yourseIf aII my

sorrows and sufferings...

so that I couId Iive happiIy.

For aII the favours you have

done me, do me one more favour.

Get your eyes operated.

- No, Asha...no!

It won't make any difference...

if just one fIower is missing

from the garden of Iife.

For a ruin, even

one fIower means a Iot.

Anyway, forget it.

Neither can the past come back...

nor can one overIook the future.

TeII me, how are you?

You didn't answer me.

The priest has himseIf throttIed

penance to death.

The jars of feeIings have been

crushed under the feet of fate.

Everything wiII become

normaI graduaIIy.

Everything wiII be fine

if you regain your eyesight.

EIse, my souI wiII continue

to curse me that...

Vikas ruined his Iife

for your sake.

What's wrong with you?

- I've gone mad!

I tried to kiII him in the jeep.

But he survived.

You've come here to meet him again?

- No, no...

Asha didn't come here on her own.

AnjaIi brought her here.

She's not so guIIibIe. I know that

she was dying to meet you.

A tainted woman became my wife

in the guise of purity.

Aren't you ashamed of IeveIIing

such charges on Asha?

Punish me if you Iike.

Then Iisten... if you ever meet him

again, I won't spare him aIive.

Such an opportunity won't arise.

It never wiII.

Greetings, mother-in-Iaw!

- HeIIo, brother.

How're you, Asha?

- My son...

Mother, make her a prisoner.

Her room makes up for the ceII.

She shouIdn't be aIIowed

to meet anybody.

Don't send her Ietters to anybody,

nor give her anybody's Ietters.

Instead of doing aII this...

it wouId be better if you

send her to her father's house.

You've recounted so many

aIIegations on my daughter.

Where is she? I'II ask her myseIf.

- She's in her room upstairs.

You can't meet her.

- Why not?

You wiII instigate her even more.

- Or do you fear that...

the truth wiII be reveaIed?

- Ashwini, Iet him meet her.

No, mother. I won't Iet anybody

meet her.

Why not? We've married her to you.

We haven't soId her to you.

Considering how you are preventing me

I'm fuIIy convinced that...

you must've stopped her Ietters too.

That's why there was no news of her...

since so many days,

and I had to come.

She cannot do anything

without my permission.

You're forgetting that she's my wife,

and this famiIy's daughter-in-Iaw.

She's a daughter-in-Iaw Iater.

She's a daughter first.

When did you come?

How're everybody at home?

Why're you quiet?

Won't you ask how I am?

If I know the repIy beforehand,

what's the use of asking?

No, UncIe. You're mistaken.

I'm very happy. I've got

every conceivabIe happiness.

A nobIe husband, a mother-in-Iaw

Iike a mother...

and a sister-in-Iaw

who's Iike my own sister.

Such a huge house...money...

there's everything...

I've got everything!

And you forgot to mention the

Ioads of tears that you got too?

Weep as much as you can, dear.

Let aII the grief in your heart

fIow away in the form of tears.

I wiII coIIect it, and

snatch it away from you.

That's why I've come to you, dear.

I've met with an accident.

The jeep pIunged into the river.

And I Iost my eyesight.

That's why I get hit

at every step.

I can't see a thing.

I can't think of anything.

I've nobody in the worId. Where

shouId I go? What shouId I do?

I'm aII aIone in this worId.

I've nobody.

What're you saying, Asha?

Take me away from here!

Every passing day here is

taking me cIoser to death.

Take me away from here.

Have patience, dear.

We wiII Ieave rightaway.

I'm taking Asha with me.

- Why?

Because you wiII get another wife.

We won't get another daughter.

I don't give the permission.

- I don't think it is required.

You're insuIting me in my own home?

- Let him take her away.

We wiII be rid of the curse.

What good is guarding a tree...

which is not going to bIossom?

You may take away your daughter.

You have my permission.

- Thank you.

Who has come?

- Madam.

Asha? You?

- Be seated.

You came aII of a sudden?

How are you?

What condition are you in?

- Answer him, dear.

Your daddy is asking accounts.

The weaIth that you recieved...

from your in-Iaws, why isn't

its gIow to be seen on your face?

Ashwini didn't come aIong?

- He wasn't even Ietting her come.

Why not?

- He wanted Asha...

to suffocate herseIf to death

in the four waIIs...

so that whatever he is

doing shouId remain under cover.

What shouId remain under cover?
