Manjhi: The Mountain Man Page #6

Synopsis: Dashrath Manjhi was a poor man from the lowest of the low castes, living in a remote village cut off from the world by a rocky mountain range. Life for him was a daily struggle for survival. He loved his wife, Phaguniya, beyond belief. One day, while climbing the mountain to bring him food, his wife slipped, fell and died. Overwhelmed by grief, Dashrath decided to carve out a path through the mountain, so that no one else would suffer his fate. For 22 years, all by himself, with just a hammer and a chisel, he hammered away at the rocks, till the path was carved out from the mountain.

Nothing will ever change.

Every one called me Mad...

Everyone else was right.

I was wrong.

A little stumble and

you shatter?

The world is a web of deceit...

ruled by the powerful.

And l? I'm alone...

I'm tired...

And old.

Can't do this anymore.

Remember Dashrath.

You took an oath to make the path.

This path will be made and

you will make it.

It's no use..

No one cares...

Nothing will change

I thought.

You are making me a Taj Mahal.

Why are you staring wide eyed?

Pick up your hammer and chisel

and break the mountain.

Or I will never talk to you again.

Babe, you are not alone anymore!

Everyone is with you.

This path will now

be made very soon.

Great! Fantastic! Alive!

He broke the damn mountain.

And that's their leader

Dashrath.

You start the proceedings.

Hey! Stop it.

With whose permission are

you breaking this mountain?

This property belongs

to the Forest department.

You trying to grab it?

Who is this Dashrath Ivlanjhi?

Catch the bugger!

Tie him up.

Bring him here.

ls this your dad's mountain?

And where are all the stones?

. .. gobbled them?

Sold them?

He wants to become

the stone mafia...

No sir,

We were making a path

for the village

...to make it easy.

Make it Easy eh?

Easy. ..

Fool!

Let me make it easy for you.

Stealing a mountain?

You think it's a joke?

If anyone even steps here again.

Your properties will be confiscated

and you'll rot in jail.

Take him.

Get in...

Messing with the law eh'?

Bloody mountain thief.

For 2O years he's been breaking

governmenfs property.

Politics of the hammer!

Prosecute him in such a manner

that he dies in jail.

Hanged till death.

on, die!

Now sing your hymns.

Your story is over.

Once you mess with the govt.

Even God has to surrender.

Phaguniya...

I feel I have lost...

I'll die before the task is done...

May be my love lacked something...

Maybe I was too weak...

May be the God didn't want it.

May be...

It makes no difference.

Release Dashrath Ivlanjhi!

Release him! Release him!

Who are they? What do they want?

Don't know.

Then don't just stand!

Go find out!

Yes sir.

Calm down.

Why've you arrested him?

He's innocent.

Until you release him,

nobody'|| go from here.

Sir they have come

to get him released.

They say he's falsely implicated...

he's a saint.

They'll go on a hunger strike

until he's released.

Sir I think he is a political man.

Release the joker! Hurry.

What about the forest department?

They stuff their

with bribes and we face the crap.

...Get him out.

Move... move.

Dashrath Babe!

Long Live!

Come on!

With all your might...

"Haissa."

All together...

"Haissa."

Louder now...

"Haissa."

Dashrath Babe!

Long Live!

An age has gone by...

In your memory...

l-low much I love you!

So much...

"That no mountain can stop it..."

That sky can not contain it...

...That no one can imagine

I know...

You've performed a miracle!

Dashrath Manjhi you are

a super man! You are Mr. India!

Alone with a hammer and chisel!

Tell me... after making

the impossible, possible.

What would you like to say?

What can an illiterate

man like me say?

Say something

I say - Don't depend

too much on God...

May be God depends on us...
