Are you having me followed?

No need for that. You are yourself exhibiting your depravity.

Ever wondered how young he is to you?

If I tell you that Asha too is much younger to you. . .

you'll say you are a man !

Yes, I am a man !

But, you want to prove me impotent by sleeping with that baby.

I shan't let you continue with this lechery.

You are so driven by lust, for you, a woman is just a body, that's all !

You've never looked beyond the flesh.

You call yourself a leader of this country?

I say, that boy is much greater than you.

Wish I had never been married to you !

Wish I had met a Man like him before.

Everyone knows that we've made great progress. . .

in the field of Science and Technology.

But, every class of the society should get equal benefit of it.

Either it be a man or a woman.

Everyone has got complete right to live a better life.

But alas! Today in the 2 1st century,. . .

woman is still not treated well in this country.

She is being regarded as a machine. . .

for domestic servitude and making babies.

Lechers considers her to be an object of luxury.

She is the one who works in the farms ; operates machines in the factories. . .

but is paid less than men.

A woman has given birth to all us men.

She has nurtured and educated us.

But, we are not ready to give our mothers her rights.

Her bare body is exhibited to sell products like cigarettes and liquors.

But now, time has come for her to come out of hiding.

To come out of her homes and chores.

And lend an equal hand on every front in running this nation.

This has to be. We have to do this.

And I've taken up this challenging task.

What's wrong? - Answer my one question.

I am tired of answering questions all day. No more questions please!

Just one question. - Fine. Ask.

Am I not a woman? - No doubt about that.

You are a very beautiful woman.

Then as a woman, I demand all those rights. . .

you are giving to the other women.

I gave you all that you had never even dreamt of.

Yes, you did. . . - Just a minute!

You & your family were living a life of obscurity in a backward remote area

Now, you are in the State capital in a good position.

A government house, a government job, power. . . what more do you want?

But as a woman, my status is that of a concubine.

Our relationship is that of shame. A dirty secret hidden from the world.

I want you to accept me before the society with pride.

I want the right to become a mother.

I want your name for my child.

Just because I gave you a place in my heart doesn't mean you rule over me.

Neither am I your slave nor do I wish to become your queen.

I am a woman. When you love me, show it to the world. That is all I ask.

You know I can't divorce Varsha.

My image is more important than me.

My party is more important than me. And I can't betray it.

Fine. Until then, you can't toy with my body too.

Sir, I am Deepak speaking. - Why did you have to call home?

You only asked me to.

Fine. You'll give me all the information about Varsha.

Where she goes? What she does? Whom she meets. . . everything.

And especially with that journalist.

And if possible, tell me what they talk about.

I'll find that.

Give me the report in the office and not at home.

What's the matter? You look worried.

Are you searching for someone?

My husband is having me followed to keep track of my activities.

Do you see two men behind me?

Yes and they even have binoculars.

Can you put on a little act? - Excuse me!

You can put on a little act, can't you? - What are you saying?

I can't even lie properly. - You don't have to do anything.

What's to be done now, I'll do it.

You just play along, okay? - Okay.

You? - Yes, me.

What have you come here for? - I've come to meet my beloved.

No one as such lives over here. Go back to that witch !

Alpana, you are highly mistaken.

She is a married woman and a very faithful wife.

And I have no such relation with her as you think it to be.

Oh really! Then, what relation have you with her?

What do I say now? We are just good friends.

How would you say it?

She is young and beautiful and upon all, C. M . 's wife.

She can be very resourceful to you.

Whatever you have seen or heard can even be wrong, you know.

Everything hearsay. . . - Don't touch me!

I don't trust you at all ! You are a very self-seeking person.

You can do anything to achieve your object.

Will you be leaving quietly or should I have you thrown out?

Do you have the guts? - Yes, I do.

Relax! Come to your senses! - No. . .

Come to your senses!

Did you promise to meet someone here? - Excuse me!

I am talking about Sanjay.

Well, not exactly promise. But yes, I am waiting for him.

It's not nice to wait for a stranger.

How can you tell if he is a stranger or not?

How is he related to you?

Are you his mother, sister, wife or inamorata?

Does a man and woman's relationship fall only into these categories?

Yes. If you know what's in your mind.

How is Sanjay related to you? - He is my boyfriend.

Don't you trust him? Don't you trust your love?

Frankly speaking, it is you I don't trust at all.

Why is it that when a man and a woman are not related by blood. . .

they have but one relation between them? That of an animal?

I don't know how much experience you have of life.

But, you might be aware of a teacher and student relation.

Of a relation between friends.

You must be aware that there are some relations that have no name.

We women always complain that men don't understand us.

But does a woman understand a woman? Do you understand me?
