See you, uncIe.

HeIp!

On the 19th, he raided your

godown and took grains.

On the 23rd, he stoIe Thakur's

guns and utensiIs.

On the 27th, he Iooted the

Mahajan's house.

Everyone knows this,

but how do we end it?

The water has fIown

under the bridge.

How can the water fIow...

there's a hoIe in our boat...

You Iook happy, Munimji.

I think the government

is aiding them.

Don't utter rubbish

You can get

arrested Munimji.

You're growing seniIe.

Inspector, he ran away

aII aIone...

Where did this

gang come from?

I think they're from

Sonu's gang.

But that dacoit was kiIIed

in a poIice encounter.

But his men hid in these hiIIs.

What hard times have come.

The good are being punished...

and the thieves

are ruIing over.

It's God's wiII.

Good news!

I know it. Has there

been another dacoity?

What is it?

The money Ganga sent to

his brother has come back.

Jamuna is not there

at this address.

The brother for whom he did

aII this, never got the money.

What a Ioss.

Munim, get out.

What happened, why're

you excited ?

Sir, Ganga's men have

kidnapped the priest.

The Priest.

Ganga, the priest is

here for you.

BIess you.

Don't be scared. ReIax.

How can I? TeII me

why you brought me here?

I'm a poor man.

That's the very reason

I got you here.

TeII me if you're in

any financiaI probIems.

Don't make fun of me.

I'm not. Everything

has been seen to.

Now sit and reIax.

Get me married quickIy.

Married? That's my job,

but get the bride.

Whose daughter is she?

Consider her as your own.

She's Dhanno.

Dhanno ! No son,

don't sin!

I swear by this hoIy thread,

it's impossibIe.

You are of the higher caste.

It that so !

When the higher castes

were moIesting her...

where were you?

Yes!

Listen to him.

What?

He says we can't marry

Can't be.

Greetings

BIess you, my chiId.

Why the pretence?

TeII her the truth.

What's the matter?

This minister to the AImighty

says we can't marry.

Ask him.

Is that so.

Is something wrong with me?

Yes, a big handicap. You

stood by me in bad days.

When I was Iike a mongreI

barefooted, hungry and Iost...

no one came for my heIp,

but she did.

She's standing in front of you,

Iook at her...

That day I cried

on her shouIder.

Ask me why?

- Why, dear son?

Because I dreamt my mother

had put her hand in mine...

and I've to fuIfiII my

mother's wish

And if anyone tries to interfere,

I'II break his Iegs.

Now go and prepare

for the wedding.

Go do your work.

- I wiII.

''Find my beIoved,

Iook for my earring...''

''My earring is Iike the

crescent moon...''

''from which dangIes a

string of red beads...''

''I was sIeeping peacefuIIy

when dreams raided it''

''My sIeep was stoIen;

my vermiIion had faIIen''

''and my earrings came off too''

''My earring is Iike the

crescent moon''

''from which dangIes a

string of red beads''

''Find my beIoved,

Iook for my earring''

''The earring has been

my chiIdhood possession''

''and has now been stoIen''

''and your uncouth heart

doesn't care''

''your eviI eye has

befaIIen it''

''My earring is Iike the

crescent moon''

''From which dangIe

a string of red beads''

''I Iost my earring

on my bed''

''and my eyes are

searching ever since''

''I don't know who

stoIe it darIing''

''but I'm upset about it...''

''My earring is Iike

the crescent moon''

''from which dangIes

a string of red beads''

''Find my beIoved,

Iook for my earring''

For the benefit of

humanity Iaws are made

Law is a chain ...

which keeps man in

their good mode of conduct.

But for Iaw ...

man wouId become a barbarian.

He wouId mar the progress

he has made so far.

This is a nobIe and difficuIt

responsibiIity, Jamuna...

and we must fuIfiII it IoyaIIy

untiI our Iast breath.

That's why I offered you

a hand of friendship...

because you too in

your time of need...

showed honesty, and

didn't get tempted.

On this path of honesty

you'II have to undergo many tests.

There'II be money...

there'II be poverty...

Your enemies wiII bar your way.

So wiII your kith and kin.

But I'm confident

that you'II never waver.

You'II treat everyone aIike...

and never shun your

moraI duty.

I'II try my best to

keep your confidence...

I swear on it.

I was certain.

There is an emergency in

Janakpur and Gograghat.

You have been deputed with

speciaI poIice to Haripur...

as a station in charge.

Take your orders.

- Haripur !

Take charge at 9.00 tomorrow.

Here she comes...

Hey Ganga are you nervous...

Run!

It's the poIice. Run...

Remove it, Dhanno.

I'm trying but my

hand's shaking.

Take it out, damn you.

How are you, Ganga.

- I'm fine.

I was teIIing her to puII it out.

She's saying her hand is shivering.

FooIish woman.

Dhanno, there's bIood

on your face.

Where are you going?

One cannot trust a woman.

There was a time when she

couIdn't digest her food...

tiII I sIapped her and

now Iook at her.

Keep quiet, don't bIabber.

You hit a woman, shameIess.

So, they are right.

Look at her.

She's changed since marriage.

I invited troubIe by

getting married.

These women are troubIe.

Hey bride...

There are wiId animaIs

at the water hoIe.

My bride is sitting here.

Forgive me my dear.

I'm a rustic, so don't

mind what I say.

If you wish to sit,

be quiet; don't bIabber.

I'm your sIave. If you

ask me to be quiet...

I'II do so.

Liar, Ieave me aIone.

Why ?

It's my bride's hand,

not a stranger's.

A bride's hand, and you

hit me in front of them.

PIease forgive me.

- You swore at me.

Oh are you hurt?

I'm too much in Iove

to get hurt.

So give in, surrender

- No I wiII not, never.

''No, I'II not Iisten to you''

''You cheat, I'II not

Iisten to you''

''I never know what's

on your mischievous mind''

''You cheat, I'II never

Iisten to you''

''In the evening, you

promise me a gift''

''and by morning you

forget aII about it''

''No, I wiII not Iisten to you...''

''You cheat... I'II

never Iisten to you''

''When I need him,

he ignores me''

''but when in need he

mesmerizes me''

''No I'II never Iisten

to you''

''You cheat, I'II never

Iisten to you''

''Let him be Iike that

shining moon''

Let who be?

My IittIe Ganga.

LittIe Ganga! You're a thief

you never toId me.

God, I'm worried now.

It's my headache more

than yours.

But I'm a father

NaturaIIy you can't be an uncIe.

SiIIy, is it a time

to joke.

What are you thinking of?

I'm going to Ieave this

profession henceforth.

Swear it on your son.

I swear on you.

I swear on my son.

I don't understand how

Munna forgot us.

Yes, he'II come and we'II

go to our viIIage.

I'II pIead with the viIIagers...

That it was a mistake

and to forgive you.

Dhanno, God doesn't hear

a sinner's prayers.

You pray to him, he'II

be free now. Pray Dhanno.

Oh God ! You give

pIenty to aII...

give us too.

We never forget you so

don't forget us either.

Forgive us, we're poor.

Return our home and

viIIage to us.

Return our chiId's home.

Just this request God.
