Jattu Engineer Page #5

---

Your time is up.

Pack your bags immediately,

and get lost.

Go away... now!

An illiterate Jatt...is

as good as a literate one.

And a literate Jatt...

is as good as God.

And if the Jatt is

a headmaster... - Then?

Like the village head's father!

Headmaster, stop.

I am going. Goodbye.

'And the very next morning,

we set out with the headmaster...'

'...to plow the village fields.

'The teacher...started

plowing the fields.'

Come on... pick up.

Plough harder... come on.

What's wrong with you now?

Come on...

Here it comes.

Drive faster.

Let me see the mirror.

Sit properly, or you will fall.

'The teacher even made useless

kids like us work in the fields.'

Like this... well done.

Go on.

- Amazing.

'And in the end...the crops sprouted.'

This is amazing, teacher.

Headmaster, this is amazing.

Without fertilizer,

and without pesticide.

And the best of all...

Saffron in Haryana. This is amazing.

Headmaster.

These herb crops...com pletely

changed the face of our village.

Yes...

For the first time...the old

farming techniques were put away.

Teacher...l hope we fetch

a good price for it.

If man shows courage,

God aides him too.

We have all worked hard.

And God won't disappoint us.

We will be rewarded for it.

Yes, teacher.

Headmaster,

can I take a selfie with this miracle?

Of course.

Come on.

Feeling proud.

"I will fly."

"I will fly."

"I will fly."

What is this?

- Herbs and spices, sir.

Do you want me to bang my head on it?

This market is for food grains,

not fodder.

Take it back.

Unbelievable.

Let's go...

Unbelievable.

Let's go to the fodder market.

Greeting sir.

What is this?

Even the cattle aren't eating it.

Then who's going to eat this?

You eat it, like the way you grew it.

Get lost...

stop wasting my day.

That bloody master has ruined us.

Mother cow rejecting herbs.

So who ate those herbs?

No one ate it.

But yes...the villagers

were on all time high.

C...Come...

You fool,

by the time you finish speaking...

...it will be harvesting season again.

Headmaster, come out.

Headmaster, where are the dreams...

...that you showed

these naive villagers?

This time...you made us grow dry hay.

Neither man or animal

are prepared to eat it.

I've been telling you...

...that this headmaster is 'broad'.

I mean, he's a fraud.

But you guys think, that...

...the village head is like a donkey,

that keeps braying.

Now let me tell you what happens next.

If you don't pay this installment...

...then the interest will keep growing.

When the interest keeps piling up,

you won't be able to repay your debts.

And if you fail to repay your debts...

...then, you'll lose this land

which you treat as your mother!

We're ruined.

This headmaster has ruined us!

Headmaster down-down!

Headmaster down-down!

Teacher, I thought that

by letting my children study...

...they have become successful.

Even a widow like me.

I used my entire savings,

jewelry and even borrowed money...

...and gave it to you.

And you...you betrayed us!

This widow curses you!

You will never dwell in peace.

Teacher...are you satisfied

now after ruining the entire village?

WhY are you quiet?

You don't have anything

to say, do you.

Standing there like a statue.

Let's go back to our homes, everyone.

Come on, let's go.

Walk faster... let's go.

Keep walking. Keep walking.

Bloody illiterates...come here.

What's left to say now?

You fools...who told you...

...to go sell the crops at the market?

Should we sell these

herbs from mouse-to-mouse?

Mouse to mouse.

I mean. . . house-to-house.

Buy some herbs.

2 for five rupees.

2 for five rupees.

First, tell me...who brought

this drama queen here?

Or did all of you follow him here?

Village head feeling humiliated again.

You don't have to take

the crops to the market.

The market will come

to you...to buy these crops.

Teacher, you're fooling this village.

Will the market swoop

down from the sky...

...to buy our crops?

Look who's here.

Hello, I am Jack Richards.

- Okay, welcome.

SSS, I am Fletcher.

- Okay.

I am Christina.

- Okay, welcome. Come.

Mr. Chaudhary, how much do you earn

from your one acre of land in a year.

If the harvest turns out to be good...

...we make around 15-20

thousand in a year.

Yes...

But this time,

you've made 1.5-2.0 lacs per acre.

And these people are

here to buy your crops.

Will you sell your crops to them?

Teacher, forgive me!

I was wrong.

Teacher, bless you...

We let this village head provoke us.

Now, we'll do exactly as you say.

Glory to...

- Headmaster!

Glory to...

- Headmaster!

Glory to...

- Headmaster!

Lady, turn to the next page.

This wall...is from here to there.

Teacher, I've brought

workers from the station.

250 men work under him.

I had a word, they won't

leave until the work's not done.

I've sealed the deal.

Chaudhary sir, why do need workers.

Teacher, the gas plant...

It's such a huge village.

If everyone...works in shifts...

...then it won't take

long to build the gas plant.

What are you saying, teacher?

You've only seen the

village from outside.

You haven't been inside.

Let's go take a look.

- Come.

Now teacher, watch.

Now...h...h...hit.

Wh...wh...where do I hit?

On the front...

Wait.

- W...w...why?

You fool...the iron...

is cold again.

Teacher, this neighborhood

is filled with stammerers.

If they have to answer

the engineer's question...

...it will be nightfall

before they can do so.

This place is filled

with such hidden gems.

We have much more such

hidden gems, teacher.

Let me show you. - Come.

Chaudhary sir, what's back there?

It's the neighborhood of drug addicts.

They don't even open their

eyes...without taking drugs.

And you want to make them work.

I mean, even if some

engineer agrees to come here...

...he will commit suicide.

Now that I've taken the responsibility

of reforming the village...

...I'll reform them as well.

- I see...

What neighborhood is this, Mr.

Chaudhary?

This is a very dangerous neighborhood,

teacher. - What?

Yes, it's a very

dangerous neighborhood.

Hello, Basante...

- I will never agree.

I will plow my field

and sow seeds as well.

You can do anything you want.

What's wrong with him?

There's nothing wrong with him.

It's his ears.

This neighborhood is filled

with deaf people. - Huh?

Hey. . . come here.

What happened, sir?

Does this road lead to Sudhpur?

What... no, sir.

My in-laws gave me this ox, as dowry.

I don't know whether

they are stolen or not.

How dare you joke with the police?

No, honestly...

I am being honest...

Bloody witch, your father

gave me stolen ox in dowry.

Go ahead hit me,

but it's entirely your mother's fault.

She delayed the food.

Go away...and take

this stolen ox as well.

I'll show her.

Witch! I won't spare her today.

Old hag.

She has made my life hell.

I will show her today.

Look at her sitting there.

I was late today because of you...

...and your son beat me up.
