Are you out of your mind? Are

You were wondering alone in the city.

Hadn't you bothered

a bit about us? Idiot.

What's going on here? Did you listen?

If he had been lost then how

can we able to look after him?

And who wrote this? Who

wrote this absent note?

You aren't able to write

properly, bloody, duffer, idiot.

You could pass if you are

able to write that much.

Who wrote this note, Ishaan?

Speak, who wrote this?

Ishaan, this is the last time I'm

asking you. Who wrote this absent note?

- Speak. Who wrote?

- No.

- Tell.

- No.

Tell me.

Class work and homework, haven't

any improvement in both of it.

Just like the last year.

Book is still his enemies. Like

read and write is punishment.

His English handwriting

seems to be Russian sometimes.

He repeat the mistakes without any reason. He's

always attentive towards the outside of the class.

All the time asking for

permission to go to the toilet.

I'm thirsty. I want to do pee.

Thirsty, pee... thirsty, pee.

Disturbs the whole class

with his silly pranks

and have you been through with his exam

papers. He boiled the eggs in every subject.

Did you send his exam papers?

On last Wednesday for parents

signature. Haven't returned till today.

There were a site, I tell you Mrs. Awasthi.

Infect I sent a letter especially to meet you.

Look this.

Math's test. 3x9=3, enough. After

that he left all the questions.

Who would accept that he's the

younger brother of Yohaan Awasthi?

- Mr. Awasthi.

- Yes.

By the way this is the second

year of your son in third standard.

If it's running such like that then I'm

sorry I wouldn't able to help you out.

Maybe he's having some problem.

What do you mean?

Maybe he... Some children are unlucky.

And there are special kind of

schools for these kind of children.

- Water, sir.

- Get a side.

I told you, move form there.

- 10 rupees sir... 10 rupee.

- Son of 10, 10 rupee.

Thinks my son is a retard.

She thinks my son isn't normal.

Err! They filled up the

class with 60 children.

Teacher wouldn't able to

pay attention on every child.

Bloody nonsense. Idiots.

What I hadn't done? I did the job

for the kids and left every thing.

I took the lessons by myself in morning

and evening, Ishaan... Ishaan... Ishaan.

No Maya it's not your fault.

He wouldn't improve such like that.

Okay... okay, tomorrow I

come early in the morning.

Thanks a lot Suresh. Thank you very

much. Good night... good night...

Done.

But in the middle of the term.

Suresh Kapdia's uncle is the

founder trusty of the school.

I'll submit the fee tomorrow

by meeting with the headmaster.

No, I'll not go. I'm not go to go.

Ishaan, shut up. Have your food quietly.

Will not to go.

Let him finish this year then... I mean

Nando, he haven't stay without me till today.

Err! He'll have to inherit.

And wasn't you heard the

principal? They wouldn't allow him

...in the school next year. They'll

fail him again and expel him.

Then where will we go?

Look... look how he's staring?

No bloody regret on his face.

There at boarding school, they'll

straighten him up by force.

Today he asked Yohaan to write a note,

don't know what he'll do tomorrow?

the poem and Ishaan Nandkishor

...Awasthi you, you'll explain the

central idea of the poem.'Nature'.

Okay.

Start Rajan.

'Nature'

'Open sky from the top', 'Your

world is filled with clouds'

'It's blinked like a jewel till

the elephant dies due to thrust'

'Bicycle buzzer, stone

or mud or blind man stick'

'Then you seems to be filled with

water, you are our sweet stream'.

Very good. Yes Ishaan Anand Kishor Awasthi

explain the central idea of the poem.

What we see, we feel it exists and what

we can't see we feel it isn't exists.

But sometimes what we see, isn't true.

And what isn't visible, is true. Means.

Err! What are you doing

visible or not visible?
