Pancharangi Page #5

You're saying as though

having bath is a big deal.

What could I do? The

situation was such.

Lakshmi, do it slowly.

You pierced it into me.

Hello, what will you do

if your husband bites you?

Don't tell me, okay?

- She talks too much.

Lata, the pleats are not proper and

your sari is not till your toes.

You're talking as though

you know how to wear a sari.

Wear this skirt. Madam

got it stitched for you.

Aunt's special.

- She loves you too much.

Lakshmi, come and

straighten the pleats. - Hold on.

Aunt said, it will be nice if

the guy straightens the pleats.

Guys are known for pulling the

sari and not straightening it.

What do we do? - I'll get

the guy who's come to see you.

Tell him to make you

wear sari. It will be good.

Go and get him. Let's see.

I'm taking the dog out.

All this is nonsense.

He's here.

- What is it?

Just two minutes.

- Slowly.

Fool, where are you going?

You be busy with the sari,

I've some work.

Whom did she go to meet?

- I don't know.

Ambu!

Excuse me. - Lakshmi, go

and check where Ambu went.

You always doubt on her.

Get ready first.

I need to pee.

Will somebody take me?

I'm coming. Come.

Where's my idiotic son?

Who are you?

- Bingra.

Bingra?

- Yes.

God bless you.

My husband would've eaten

150 steamed cakes today.

It was very tasty. How

did you make the chutney?

Tender coconut, green chillies..

- You put coconut in it?

Tamarind and gram - You don't

make any dish without tamarind.

There's a special way

to temper the chutney.

It is said that my husband's..

Ancestor used to

temper it in a gold wok.

The gold you get here is

very pure, isn't it? - Yes.

I could analyze by

seeing your bangles.

It hasn't turned

black even a little.

The one that I bought

in Bangalore

must be given to

polish every three months.

Next time you decide

to buy gold, come here.

You're from Karawali, but

still you talk so good Kannada.

I was married to this place.

Actually I belong to Hasan.

So, I and my children know

Bangalore Kannada very well.

I guessed it right.

She's so cute. Who's this girl?

- She's Ambika.

Oh, your brother's daughter who

lost her parents in childhood..

Yes. She's more lovable to

me than my own daughter.

I can see that. You've

brought her up like that.

She would know and follow all

the cultures and tradition

...l can guess that by

seeing her in the ethnic dress.

Aunt, I always wear a sari.

Aunt forced me to wear this skirt.

Girls always look

beautiful in ethnic dress.

The girls in our city

are very fashionable.

Not only girls, but women of

our age wear short dresses.

Aunt, don't tell me

about such women. I swear.

I'll get the vermillion that I

got as oblation after performing

veneration of Goddess Lakshmi.

Apply it on the

forehead of both the girls.

Light a lamp in pure ghee.

- Okay.

Silly girl, you were

fooling around with her.

Aunt, I'll talk to you later.

I have to rush.

Ambu! - Bye aunt. - I'll

teach you a lesson later.

"Come on baby, feel the body."

"Let me take you on a ride."

"Come on baby.."

Greetings to you.

When I was young, I had

seen in the religious movies.

The same ethnic dress,

vermillion, and bangles.

Indian girls have

changed a lot from those times.

What's your good name?

I think you got angry.

Okay, don't tell me your name.

You're dressed traditionally,

so according to the custom..

...can I call you as sister-in-law?

"Come on baby, feel the body."

I addressed my mother and

mother and father as father.

But you've become my sister-in-law.

"Come on baby.."

My brother, who's here to see you..

...he looks like my

younger brother,

then how can I

address him as brother?

It is good to ill-talk

about your family. Right?

You seem to be a very good girl.

You have to respect your parents.

They gave birth to us, isn't it?

- "Come on baby.."

Your name is Sharda,

Meena, Ratna or Soumya?

No, my name is Leta.

It belongs to the same category.

Why do you have such good names?

Lata, Rekha, Bhagya (luck)..

We get good luck to husbands,

isn't it? That's the reason.

Do you live in

America with your brother?

No. I'm a pure Indian.

My name is Bharat Kumar.

I am son of Karnataka.

I'm born in Karnataka and

have decided to die here.

So, you're a local. No problem.

Why are you making faces?

No, I imagined you and my brother,

he's wearing shorts

...and you're wearing ethnic

dress on an American beach.

I'll go to America

in the same clothes.

I cook nice food. I make

tamarind curry very delicious.

I heard you don't get

tamarind in America. ls it?

Why are you quiet?

- It's futile to talk now.

I feel like falling on

your feet right away. Shall I?

Shut up. You're very jovial.

If my younger sister hears you,

she'll laugh out loud.

Do you have a sister?

- Yes, she's likes you very much.

Her name is Ambika.

You can call her as Ambu.

Shall I call her?

- No. I am not good with girls.

No problem. You can

meet her once. Please.

Hello, she's calling you.

- I'm coming.

It is urgent.

I shall leave now.

- Okay.

India, America. Silk

skirts worn by everyone.

They eat pizza and burger, but

they eat steamed cake and curry.

I and my dog are alone.

Ambu was doing something there.

- What?

Ask her.

- What is it?

I went looking for him

and made him go crazy.

What did you do?

- I said my name was Lata.

That fool believed it and was

addressing me as sister-in-law.

In fact, he wanted

to fall on my feet.

Why did you tell my name?

- Just like that.

You didn't say it just

like that. You're jealous.

So, you didn't want me to marry.

That's the reason you did this.

Don't you feel ashamed? You

don't want me to be happy.

You're a fool.

Lata, I didn't do anything bad.

Please, don't say that.

Don't pretend. Last time when

you were here on your vacation

...you flirted with the

guy who came to see me.

He refused to marry me

and wanted to marry you.

Didn't you create that problem?

Did I marry him? He learnt

that you failed in your exams..

...so he left. What could I do?

You're very educated

and I'm a fool.

You were the one who told

the guy about this. I know.

You want to snatch

everything I have.

Now you've planned to

entice that guy from US.

You're born to

snatch everything from me.

You're witch.

I'll complaint about you to aunt.

- Go and tell her.

Even she knows everything

about you.

Mother brought you up.

You're not her daughter.

She doesn't love you

even a bit. Go and ask her.

Are you done with

your fight? Happy now?

Shall I tuck the flowers in your

hair? - Okay. No other option left.

I'm tired of seeing you

both fight since childhood.

It is good that I didn't

go with them to the college.

Ambu, you're too much.

I heard you don't love me.

ls it true? - Yes.

Who told you? Did Lata tell you?

- Yes. She did.

You know her nature. She

keeps changing her statements.

I've told you many times

not to take her seriously.

You're educated, aren't you?
