Grandmother? Grandmother,

what do you want to say?

Uncle!

Anna!

One day before Anna

were supposed to leave...

...an astrologer had come.

He said that Gurav family

has no success in business.

If you do the business,

it'll bring calamity.

Bhalchandra, listen to me.

- Okay, see you.

Stop running after mango.

With him?

Mumbai!

They left for Mumbai?

Anna punished himself so severely.

Till now I felt he

hates my research methods.

He has objection for that.

But he punished

himself and his family.

I must speak with him.

Brother Ajeet!

- Brother?!

Brother Ajeet!

- Brother?!

Stop, brother Ajeet.

Brother Ajeet!

Take it patiently.

Otherwise, nothing

will remain in hand.

It was just a matter of coincidence.

That astrologer said something...

...and accident took

place right at that time.

Anna got stuck

between planets and stars.

So also your business.

And also our lives.

Diamond cuts diamond.

I think this astrology

itself will change our fate.

Teacher!

Don't do anything that

would bother him by any means.

No, Mai. Whatever I'll do, will

be for everybody's betterment.

Trust me.

And see how I tackle this

matter in the funniest way.

Just a minute! Slowly!

Take care!

- Slowly! I'll help you. Slowly!

Slowly!

God! It's so hot!

Slowly, teacher!

Anna!

She's Ankita and she's Amruta.

- Yes.

They're twin sisters, right?

I mean their birth

time is same, right?

Am I right?

- Yes.

So, their horoscopes

would also be same.

You're mistaking, teacher.

In astrology, every second counts.

But, Anna. Birth place

wouldn't be affecting...

...the horoscope much, right?

How can you say that?

Now take the example...

Welcome! Welcome,

Mr. Subhash Shivalkar!

You're most welcome!

Who called for rickshaw?

Nobody called for it.

I've some work with teacher,

that's why I've come.

Now that you've come,

take lunch with us...

...and then speak to him.

Is there anything special today?

Quietly sit and eat.

Now go and sit there.

Otherwise, you'll get a tight slap.

C'mon!

- Plate. - Here it is. - Okay.

Don't act smart.

- No.

Anna, I wanted to ask you

about the effect of birthplace.

Forr earmple, Subhyna.

If he'd give you correct

time and date of his birth.

But gave a wrong

name of the birth place.

Will it change his horoscope?

Of course, it will.

What are you saying, Anna?

Is that so? Place is very

important in the horoscope.

That means instead of Vanerwadi...

...if he'd write Pimpalwadi,

will it change his horoscope?

Of course.

Teacher! There's a

science behind it.

But people don't believe it.

But how this universe is running?

Can anybody say that? No.

Anna! Grandma

wants to say something.

Yes, grandma.

What?

I shouldn't eat?

Then?

Shall I go and sit upstairs?

Anna, grandma wants to say...

that you weren't born here.

What?

Stop! Grandmother wants

to say something else.

Yes, grandmother, tell me.

C'mon.

Ring?

Angathewadi?

Okay, Anganewadi!

No?

God! Then?

Okay, Kanpur?

Kapalmoksha!

Hatkarangle?

Hatkhamba?

Thamba!

Sari?

On sari? No!

Anandi!

Yes, she's a jewel! You're right.

Ratnadongar

Ratnabhat.

Ratnagiri.

What?

- What?

Anna, you were born in Ratnagiri.

Congratulations, Anna.

She's aged now. How will she know?

Anna, you were small

when you were born.

She'd know better.

What nonsense? How could

I be born in Ratnagiri?

Fine. Place doesn't matter.

C'mon, everybody have some sweets.

Teacher, do you know that...

...birth place plays

important role in horoscope?

I made my horoscope based on...

...Vanerwadi as my birth place.

Now it became useless.

It's okay. We'll make a

new horoscope based on...

...Ratnagiri as your birthplace.

Nowadays computer

makes instant horoscope.

You just have that sweet.

You think I'm a kid?

Now you want me to make a total

new horoscope with new birth place?

It's like darkness under the lamp.

Now I'll have to

make a new horoscope.

Listen!

Fools!

Relax! Relax!

- Are you satisfied?

No! Give some rice.

- Idiot!

"Bear the thrashing rain

and the lightening bolts."

"Also bear the strong winds

and scorching sunlight."

"Bear the thrashing rain

and the lightening bolts."

"Also bear the strong winds

and scorching sunlight."

'Face everything. Don't

care about planets and stars.'

'Face everything. Don't

care about planets and stars.'

"We're together. Don't get scared."

"Alphanso!"

"Alphanso!"

- C'mon, brother.

What nonsense is this?

Brother Ajeet.

You must shave your moustache...

...to bring Anna to the right track.

When I made a new horoscope...

...all my stars changed.

Everything is going to be fine now.

Horoscope says, I've

success in business. - Really?

Yes.

"Who will create obstacle?"

"Who can dare so much?"

"Who will create obstacle?"

"Who can dare so much?"

How are you, teacher?

Where's this photograph?

Which one?

- Photo!

Mai! - Photo is here. -

Come here immediately.

Tell me something.

Can you see father's photo here?

What?

Yes, Anna!

- Why can't I see?

What...

- C'mon...

Put that back to wall.

Father?!

What happened?

Mai! See there, father has come.

Where's he?

"We'll change

everything from our fate."

"We're confident."

Father, why Anna can't see you?

"We're confident."

"Alphansos!"

"Alphansos!"

"Alphansos!"

"Alphansos!"

"Green and big mangoes

will grow from this."

"This soil is my mother

and the sky, my father."

"Alphansos!"

"Alphansos!"

"Alphansos!"

"Alphansos!"

"Alphansos!"

"Alphansos!"

Stick? Stick?

Stop!

If you'll check your past,

you'll find the path to your future.

I didn't get you, father.

Bhalchandra!

- Yes.

You lost your confidence

by my accidental death...

...and got stuck in the horoscopes.

Accident is an accident.

Instead if you had patiently

continued to run a business...

...my soul would have rest in peace.

You stepped back and

left me unsatisfied.

Can anybody stop living

as he has to die one day?

You've made your

family suffer with yourself.

Bhalchandra!

Now calm down.

And fulfill your duty.

Father!

Father!

You know what? Even if

you can see the flowers...

...you can't say

anything until it bore fruits.

You'll see, Subhya. Not

only in this village...

...but you'll see such fruits

in the entire Maharashtra.

Ajeet!

Ajeet! - Let go of Maharashtra,

think about the shed.

Paste your moustache.

Anna is coming.

Ajeet!

Ajeet!

Subhya, move!

Anna!

- What?

How come you're here?

You tell me. How come

you're here in my shed?

Just make a move.

- Brother Ajeet

Ready?

- Hmm...

Anna has come.

- Ajeet.

H mm!

Listen to me.

Subhya, do you remember

what I had told you to do?

Check the moustache.

It's perfect. Bye!

- Okay.

See you, Anna.

Very strange!

What a research?

How's your research on

new hybrid mango going on?

Nice!

Are you angry with me?

No, Anna. Have I

ever got angry with you?

You're right.

Anyway, but you carry on

with your research. Okay?

You earn name and fame to

yourself and Gurav family.
