Synopsis: On the banks of the holy River Ganga, Gopi, a ferryman conducts an unconsummated romance with Radha, a girl from the upper classes. At the same time, he rejects the advances of Gauri, a girl from his own village, who is attracting the unwanted attention of Radha's lecherous uncle. Fate is not kind to them. Radha is married off to a man she doesn't care for and Gopi is severely beaten by thugs sent by Radha's uncle after he prevents him from molesting Gauri. Radha's husband dies suddenly and she returns home in disgrace to find her father is dangerously ill. However, the attraction between Radha and Gopi remains as strong as ever and ugly rumours start to circulate about the nature of their relationship - for which Gopi blames the jealous Gauri. Emotions come to the boil and tragedy results. Fortunately, for all concerned, another birth awaits them......

Yes! If I had danced with you, it would have..

..been like a pair of peacock dancing.

So you even know dancing.

Ask me what I don't know! I am a city man.

Kathakpuri! Maniali! Bharatnatyam!

Kathak! And other dances too!

So Gauri, did you like my dance?

O my God! Itching plant!

Really nice!

Wow! I liked your dance so much, it felt as if..

Sir is gone now.

It felt as if..

What is this? Itching! Itching! Itching! - Yes!

Itching! Itching!

Now you can dance Kathakpuri and Maniali!

Sir, I am coming! I am coming!

Sir, I am coming! Don't worry! Don't worry!

Remove it! Remove it!

No, sir! I can't remove this!

There is only one cure for this! Dung! Buffaloes' dung!

Buffaloes' dung! Bring it quickly!

Bring it quickly! - I will just get it, sir!

Sir, I can't get dung without any money!

Take it! Take it! Take it! - Shall I take it?

Okay, sir! You go on itching! I will just get the dung!

Bring it quickly! Go!

Madam! Did you call me?

Yes, Gopi! Wait here!

Yes! My flower! - Oh!

Madam!

Take this! - What is this, madam?

Open it and see!

Is all this for me? - I can't wear this!

But madam.. - Liked it?

Tomorrow is your birthday. This is my gift for you.

What happened?

Madam, I used to think nobody cares if I am sad or happy..

..alive or dead.

Nobody cares.

But today.. seeing your attachment..

..I felt emotional.

So should you cry for this?

Madam, how did you remember my birthday?

You don't forget to bring flower for me everyday.

You don't forget to take me across the river.

So how can I forget your birthday?

There is nobody like you in this world.

Gopi, how many old will you be tomorrow?

What do I know, madam?

Is it right that you are elder to me?

Yes, madam. That is right.

Because mother Ganga told me..

..Gopi, take madam across the river.

You have to take her to the other side.

And as a boatman, I came on this earth before you.

Gopi, it feels as if in your previous birth you were a poet.

Poet? What is that, madam?

The one who writes poems.

Poem, meaning song. The one who writes songs.

Yes. Like Valmiki. Kalidas.

Kalidas the same man who was a shepherd. - Yes.

Then I am Kalidas.

I didn't become a shepherd because..

..madam needed a boatman and not a shepherd in this birth.

I swear, madam. I swear on you.

Yes!

"I locked eyes with you, grandma."

Gopi, sit properly.

Grandma, do it harder.

I am doing it.

Grandma, you have grown old.

Grandma! - Yes!

This won't do! Move! I will show you!

Here comes the wrestler! Come, you too do it!

Sit properly!

Gauri, don't do it lovingly. Hurry up.

I have so much work to do.

You are so big. How can I do it quickly?

Do one thing. I will do it half today.

And the rest some other day.

Look, pardon me. Bring water. And pour it on me.

Gopi, shall I do it more? - Okay!

"I locked eyes with you."

Grandma! Grandma!

Quickly get the water!

Sit!

Grandma! Quickly! Quickly!

Quiet!

Madam!

Look, the clothes which you gave me!

Don't I look good?

Yes!

Gopi, isn't it your birthday today?

What have you got for lunch?

Many things, madam! Wheat pancake, sweets.

Gram flour round sweets. Sweetmeats.

Fried snacks. Round sweet.

Ladies finger. And yes! Sweetened milk!

I have got sweetened milk too, madam.

Is that so? - Yes!

Let me see!

Madam, don't touch it!

Why? Won't you eat it if I touch it?

That is not so, madam.

The thing is that today I was in a hurry.

On your birthday I will prepare such delicious sweetened milk..

..that you will lick your fingers.

Madam! Madam! By mistake you got my lunch box!

Here is your lunch box!

If I have made one mistake then let me make another one.

Today I will eat your meals.

No, madam! You will eat this!

Why not? You eat this everyday.

Can't I eat it for a day?

It's different for me. This food is not worthy for you.

Give it to me!

No, Gopi! - Give!

Gopi! What if somebody saw?

But madam, you.. - Gopi, go!

English? - Yes!

Here is English love letter.

Love letter? - Yes! Love letter!

Madam, you too! If I had known how to read and write..

Madam, he had a long name! - Mr. Ram!

Yes! Mr. Ram! Mr. Ram! He gave this love letter for you!

Bad? If my family found out, then they will kill me!

O my God! Sir said something else!

He said it's a good thing to do. It's nice to do it.

That's why he even gave me 10 rupees.

And you took it? Listen! Don't ever do this again!

I won't do it, madam.

Do you know what I would have done..

I would have slapped him!

O God!

God knows what they teach in schools and colleges nowadays.

She can't even take care of her books.

O my God! Listen!

Listen! Listen! Where are you?

Look what she is doing under the pretext of studying.

When I refused, nobody heeded me.

What happened? - It has not yet happened.

Now it will happen.

People will laugh at us. We will be slandered.

The entire village will insult us. - Keep quiet!

You will make me quiet.

But how will you make people quiet?

Look, your dear daughter's doing!

Dear darling Radha.

I still remember those sweet words. Your smile..

Where did you find this?

In your dear daughter's books. Now you came to know.

What, sister? Tell me too.

His dear daughter has started writing love letter.

Fine! Fine! Nothing to worry.

Her age is such. And college's study.

Sister, you don't know.

College has become the meeting ground of marriage.

Let me see.

Wow! Handwriting is nice. And such sweet talks.

During our age we didn't study such things.

Good! Very good! Student is intelligent. Rajendra!

Don't get angry, brother-in-law.

This is the time to be calm and patient.

If you will resort to scolding then the outcome will be opposite.

Because this is the matter of love.

Leave it on me. I will make everything fine.

An intelligent man like me can solve this complex matter.

Yes, brother. Now the honour of the family lies in your hand.
