Tell me. In what condition?

The woman's disease.

Which happens every month.

Woman's disease. It happens every month.

Do you also have it?

- Get lost.

And mother, you?

Eat quietly.

- Yes. Eating.

Quiet.

The elders say that what

a son doesn't do for his mother...

...he does it for his wife.

You have to convince

Phullu to take up a job.

Got it?

Phullu. Have you come to thank me?

Where are the sweets?

What do you have against my freedom?

Why did you x my alliance?

Alliance? What happened?

Go get the marriage

called off right now.

I don't want to marry. Useless thing.

Don't throw a tantrum. Got it?

You'll be stunned when you see the girl.

Forget it. is she a damsel?

She must be a witch.

Meet her and then tell me

whether she is a damsel or a witch.

0kay. Are you going to

get something to eat as well?

I've come from so far.

- Get lost. ldiot.

You called me to meet.

Tell me. What is it?

You look just like radium.

Radium? What is that?

Radium is radium.

it's in a watch,

which shines even in the dark.

Green. Somewhat like a leaf.

Bright as day. That.

I wore a green dress for you.

And you called me a radium.

What ifl had worn a yellow one?

So would you have called me papaya?

And in black dress.

You would've called me a crow.

No.

- What no?

You got upset.

l was praising.

How can you praise someone

by calling him radium?

So...

How do you praise?

Don't you remember the

opening lines ofa song?

Lines?

And why are you wearing dark glasses?

Do you have conjunctivitis?

No. See.

You are showing off.

- Yes. A little. Like that.

Why are you standing?

Are you going to kiss and run away?

What are you saying?

- So come and sit.

Yes. l'll sit.

See. Here. I sat.

Sister \mla has lots of

good things to say about you.

What does she say?

That you're the entire village's hero.

You help everyone.

Then she is right.

But your mother is not

quite happy with you. Why?

Who told you? Mother, isn't it?

No one told me.

Just try to keep your mother happy.

That's it.

You've become a daughter-in-law

even before becoming a wife.

Great. Great.

When I come the next l'll learn

a couple oflines ofa song by heart.

In your praise.

- I love that song sung by Mukesh.

I even requested it in a show on radio.

They took my name and played the song.

Which song?

bath twice a day with Lux.

And this rascal keeps smelling her.

on for the past 11/2 months.

Understood?

Your eyes. Why do you stare at my...

Tara.

There were lots of

pieces of red cloth in it.

So?

- So where did they go?

I had begged and pleaded

the tailor to put in it.

I had a fabulous design

in mind for the bedding.

Where did it go?

See. Like this one.

- It has been used up.

For what?

There were so many.

Get lost.

Come on. You're so shameless. Leave me.

Bedding design my foot.

What is it?

- it's me, Tara.

Hold on. Coming.

Where is Phullu?

He is not be seen these days.

All the women were asking.

Now? In broad daylight.

Never mind. Tell me.

What do you want?

Yes. Give this to Phullu.

And tell him. Once he gets

the things not to come home.

I don't realise when the

day and night pass in your company.

Mother has done only thing right.

She found you and made you my wife.

Shall I say something?

I hope you won't get upset.

Upset with you? You're my life.

But how long do we

spend our lives like this?

Why don't you listen to mother?

Go to Delhi or Punjab

and earn some money.

l'll be very happy.

Won't you go?

I didn't go before.

So there is no chance of going now.

Do you know? This village is my heaven.

And you're the damsel of my heaven.

How can I leave you and go?

Where are you going?

- To the loo.

Come here.

Did I get you married to him for this?

To have fun with that rascal

in that room all the time.

Don't you have any shame?

I told him a number of times.

But he just doesn't listen to me.

Look, I have raised him selling

beddings village to village...

...wading through water

and walking on rough roads.

His father was a drunkard.

He died before Dhunnu grew up.

lfyou can't handle him then

go back to your mother's place.

Don't you know? Tara is young now.

Don't we have to get her married?
