My father has died.

Brother has died.

spread in our village.

Why are you so many

people dying after all? Yes?

What is our fault in it?

The entire village will

converted into a cemetery.

And we can't do anything?!

lsn't there any remedy?

The total figure is 534, Siddha.

Only this many people

are alive in the village.

Vishweshwarai.

Born in 9 planets, 12 star signs,

27 constellations..

..a valiant will come

here within 48 days.

Go! Go and search him

in the north direction.

The wind is showing

you the direction.

This land will protect you.

Siddha, nothing will happen to you.

Nothing will happen to you.

Go. Go soon. Go.

Whom do l have to find?

That man's face

will be very glorious.

His glowing facial

features will be like fire.

A storm! He will run like a storm!

But how will l find him?

You will hear his

voice automatically.

The birds and animals

will shout in a loud voice.

The rain will

welcome him on this land.

The soil of this place will dance.

Even the slight sound he

makes will also echo all around.

The one whom you want to see

will appear in front of you.

The sky will enthrone him.

The fire will dance to

the tune of his fingers.

His touch will put a tilak

(mark) of blood on your forehead.

Even the death

shivers at his sight..

..whose touch will

make you more powerful!

On watching him, even the

little children will start smiling.

On whose touch even a hut

will change into a palace.

Go and bring him,

Siddha. Go and bring him.

Yes. Siddha, be careful.

Do not look into his eyes.

Call him not with the voice of

your throat, but that of your heart.

lf he comes, this

village will be saved.

Nothing will happen to you.

Go and call him. Go.

Om Namah Shivai!

Swami.

- The shield of death.

What is this?

This village has to be

Shoot him. Shoot him. Kill him.

Shoot him. Kill him.

Kill him.

Come on. Let's return.

Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!

Stop. Stop. Stop!

- Please stop, brother.

How are you feeling

on watching this spot?

l am feeling hot.

- Obviously you will feel.

Think something new.

l love this place.

l feel like camping here.

No! This is bad.

Never mind if it is bad.

Whoever will watch this program,

he will go mad.

Why are you saying this, sir?

- Then what else, brother?

lf you tell them to make a

documentary on Rajasthan..

..everyone shows the camels,

sand dunes and rocks. - Yes.

We should cover the

entire Rajasthan. - How?

There is a way. l will show you.

- Yes.

Enjoy the breeze. Touch the

plants and trees. - Oh, oh!

We will take this

desert in our clutches.

We will take it in our clutches?

- Yes.

Oh, my God!

Help!

Oh, my God! l tore the

land open and popped up?

Why are you asking me? l

didn't understand it either.

l thought l had a heart fail.

l had slept on the

ground last night.

lt means the land covered you?

l thought l will go

around the entire Rajasthan..

..but after l fell asleep l

felt as if the land was revolving.

What?

- Goodness me!

But what is all this

after all, brother?

lt is dust, brother.

You will get rid of it

when you rub it off.

Do not sneeze,

Babulal, you will die.

How do you know that

my name is Babulal?

l have come to know

from your identity card.

Why are you so surprised?

Are you from Mumbai?

Yes, brother. l have come here to

make a documentary film on Rajasthan.

Brother, actually l really

love Rajasthan's climate. - Oh!

l am the director and

they are my assistants.

Huh? Where have they disappeared?

Did they run away when l shouted?

A coward can never become an

assistant director. - What?

We will talk rest of

the things later. - Yes.

Go and bring the luggage first.

- Yes, l will bring it right now.

Babulal.

- Yes?

Will you feel bad if l

ask something? - No.

Have you come to the

desert to shoot a documentary..

..or to do romance

with the heroines?

l don't make any

relations with the girls. - What?

By the way, l don't have any

relations with the girls too.

Are you that?

- What?

Sir, by the way, for what

work have you come here?

Me, right?

- Yes.

To dry the clothes

in bright sunshine.

You are not replying any

of my questions correctly.

Will l reply

correctly if you ask me?

Do you know Hardoike Raju?

- l love him.

He is grandfather's darling.

That is my name.

So you are Hardoike Raju?

Yes. lt was a long name, so

l kept a short name as Raju.

How is my name?

- lt sounds good to hear.

And while uttering it too.

- Oh!

Sir, what is your father?

l don't have my parents.

My grandfather is all l have.

He is a teacher. He

teaches in school too.

He takes the class at home too.

Honestly speaking, he is a bookworm.

lf he gives a gift, he

gives a pen or pencil only.

l was fed up of studying.

There is maid who does

all the household chores..

..while watching TV.

And this is the cook. She

cooks while reading a book.

And this is the photo of my parents.

'Grandfather, take the

progress report. - Very good.'

What should l tell you, Babulal?

There was no happiness

on grandfather's face..

..even if l scored

90 marks out of 100.

'You have scored only

90 marks out of 100?!'

'lf this goes on, what

will you do when you grow up?'

'l have got a job as a

taxi driver, grandfather.'

'You have diabetes so

l didn't bring sweets.'

'Never mind, son. You have

become self-sufficient.'

We had a son after ten

months of our marriage.

l had been on a

pilgrimage since six months..

..and a son was

born to my wife here.

l want to make him a doctor.

By the way, if you see the

old records of me and my wife..

..he will never become a doctor.

l will have to give

donations and l need money for it.

And if we don't make him a

doctor due to lack of money..

..then he will become a

driver like you when he grows up.

That's why l have

opened this travels agency.

That is the car and this is the key.

Keep this identity card.

All the best.

This car is small. Don't

you have a bigger one?

My friend owns a transport office.

Shall l send you there?

You have a good sense of humor.

- Yes.

l want to ask you something.

Will you mind it? - Not at all.

Ask without hesitation.

Don't feel bad.

- l won't.

You were on a

pilgrimage for six months..

..then how did your

wife become pregnant?

'No otherjob is as

carefree as a taxi driver's job.'

'You do not have to

give a reply to anyone..'

'..or take orders from anyone.'

Hey, don't take the right,

but the left turn.

'Stop your stupid voice, idiot.'

From the left?

- Yes.

Brother, are you

driving a bullock-cart?

Drive faster or l will miss

the flight. - Certainly, sir.

'lf you take one more round,

your kidney or liver will pop out.'

Rs. 300, sir.

- What?

Rs. 300, sir.

''Wretched man, is it

your father's road?''

''l too have the same

right on it as you.''

''You have challenged a

brave man by mistake.''

''Look, l too know to abuse.''
