- Let it be.

That's heavy!

Listen to me.

- I won't listen, I'm leaving.

I won't talk to you.

- Listen...

Hey, boys!

Your uncle is leaving. Escort

him to the bus stop. - I'll go.

No, forget about it.

I'll go myself.

Tell him.

Talk about that.

Go on, talk to him.

- Yes.

So, listen to me.

- He'll talk to him.

As discussed during their infancy,

let's get your Seeta and Geeta...

...married to our Ramesh

and Suresh, this summer.

Let's talk about anything but that.

The cradle of infancy is broken,

now. We store onions in it.

Onions?

- I'll let them stay unmarried...

...rather than marry these losers.

What is he saying?

- See you!

Brother!

How can you say that?

No one is interested

in my boys!

Oh, no!

Now that I am to speak here...

...even the mic is whistling.

This is such a coincidence!

We are inaugurating

a megacity here!

We will build an ultra modern

township here.

The idea being, we should convert

our village into a town.

Soon enough, we will have

the MIDC here. - Come along.

That will add to the development

of our village.

Come here.

- And that is why...

...my son is here.

- Picture.

A youthful leader of the villager

and your beloved Vice Sarpanch...

...Bharat Rao Zende!

I welcome him here

and wish him all the very best.

Along with him is the brand

ambassador, the actor...

...G Vilas. I would like to thank

All of us will buy plots in

this megacity.

We will create imbalancement

there.

Thank you!

What did he say?

- lmbalancement.

What's that'?

- Investment.

Oh!

Okay, if anyone wants photos

with me, tell them to line up.

There's nobody.

They've all gone home.

Take the packet and leave.

Here, give him the packet.

It looks so real!

It is real.

- Feed him, come on.

What the heck?

Megacity Tekawade?

Mr. Sarpanch (head of council).

- What's up, Kishan'?

What is going on on my land?

Your land?

Silly fellow!

You handed it over to us.

I paid off your debt.

- You did?

Then, return the land

documents to me. - See?

What is it?

What? You carry on.

- He's insane.

Come along.

Let's go.

- What a nuisance!

Wait! Drop me to the bus stop.

- Hurry up!

Brand ambassador.

Why are we discussing this?

The land is next to the road.

You'll mint money.

Take the money quietly

and live a good life.

Why shouldn't we discuss this?

It's my land and I want to farm.

I don't want the money.

What is the point of farming?

Should farmers toil

for all of their lives?

No!

- Should they only wait for rain?

As head of council and vice head

of council, we have duties.

The farmers should get some money.

But... - Tell me, do you or

don't you want the money?

Listen, my land...

- You're doing it again!

Be nice.

It's better for you, that way.

Or you'll need a plot

of land, some day.

In our megacity.

You'll have to buy.

Come on. Let's have a selfie

before the megacity board.

Come along!

Here. Okay?

I already owe you.

No.

I'm giving it, since I have it.

Take it.

Take that.

Make sure you perform the

rites properly.

Kishan. What about the matter

regarding your land?

What the heck! They're building

a megacity there. - What?

I gave my brother's land as security

to the Sarpanch.

They hosted the inauguration

there, today.

On, God!

You know, I'm going to do a number

on their megacity and them!

Come and sit, ma'am.

We'll leave as soon

as the bus is filled. Come on.

How much more can it take?

Should I sit on top of your head?

You bet! How can you stuff

in so many people?

Sir!

What are you screaming for?

Where do you want to go?

- Tekawade.

Oh, my. Why don't you sit?

Where should I sit?

- Please, have a seat!

Sorry. Give me one minute,

okay?

Get down!

Get down all of you!

Please.

Kishan, why are you sitting here?

- What do you think?

I'm expecting guests today.

What's it to you?

Work your fields.

Get up, Shiva.

Here comes our Mercedes!

Mangal, take the flatbread.

- I'll be there.

I've offered a piece of flatbread.

Take it. - Yes. - Yes.

The guest is here!

- Give me that.

Come along.

Here's my girl!

- Hurry.

Come on.

- Look at her!

Uncle!

- Welcome.

Oh, my! ls she here?

- Welcome, sister-in-law.

How are you?

- That's okay, enough.

Wait!

- Bless me.

That's okay.

- Can you do that?

Ward off the evil eye.

Don't let it jinx you.

Well done.

So, how was the journey?

Come along.

- Come on in.

Let's go. I'm going to serve

lunch at once.

Why are you serving lunch?

Make some tea.

Take the bags, quickly. Come on.

- Sure.

Ramesh!

- Tell me.

This is going to create

tension in the village.

There's a new model

on the scene!

At Kishan's house.

- What?

Look behind you.

A MacBook Pro, in our village!

She's mine.

Uncle, dad never let me visit

although this is a lovely village.

But, I had to come here

because of him.

Wash it.

- Okay.

Brother suffered a lot.

He really put himself through a lot.

The man had no vices whatsoever!

And how does he die?

Of a heart attack!

But, he really loved

Rupali.

I wish, he could see

her getting married.

Marriage is for later.

Okay?

I will fulfill his wish, first.

What? - Uncle, I want to be

an agricultural officer.

You can do that, later.

Once you get married, my duty

as an uncle is done.

No way. I'll be an agricultural

officer and the rest will follow.

You'll do it.

Okay, do whatever you want.

Sister-in-law, listen to me.

You must stay here now.

- What?

Why are you living in Pune on

rent? - Yes.

Why do you want to take on

our burdens?

We'll see about how to manage

that, later.

And if it's bothering

you so much...

...pay me Rs. 25,000 rent per month.

What is wrong with you?

She's the only child

I have. Right?

This broken down shack will

belong to her, after I pass away.

Uncle, I would really love

to live here.

Wake up!

- What?

What? How?

- Listen!

What was that sound?

- It's...

ls that an earthquake?

- Don't get under the bed!

Is it over there?

Over there?

Come here, listen to me!

- Leave the house!

Stay right here.

- What?

Somethings gone on, look

at it. - ls that the earthquake?

What is...

- This has to...

We can get it done.

- Look!

Bring the bricks and sand.

Get to work. - Hey!

What is going on here?

What are you doing?

Uncle!

- Uncle? Me?

You want to build a cowshed, right'?

Uncle, I'm giving the bricks.

- I'm giving the sand.

I brought the boards.

- I hired the labourers.

Why?

Uncle, we will build a cowshed

for ten cattle. - Yes.

But, I have only three.

A cow, a calf and a buffalo.

Uncle, you'll have more

sooner or later.

And we have enough male buffaloes.

That's true.

Right.

But, I don't have that much money.

- Yes.

Uncle. We're not crazy

to accept your money...

What?

- What happened?

Smear it around.

- I stepped into the cow dirt.

Why don't you watch the

ground, sometimes?

Dad said, build a modern

cowshed.

And have stalls built

for the buffalo. - Yes.

But...

What?

What is this?

Listen, dear!
