Tahaan Page #4

Aunt, all these

mountains and the jungle..

Who do they belong to?

Forget all that. She

was not looking so bad.

But there was too much

make-up on the face

And the shoes had high heels.

I don't think junior

boss will marry her.

Aunt, tell me who do these mountain..

Aunt, tell me, who do

these mountain belong to?

Get up!

All of you come out.

How many people are there in your home?

Tahaan!

Tahaan!

What is inside this?

Nothing. Just rice.

What is your name?

- Tahaan.

What is your age?

Tahaan means kind hearted.

Listen! Listen! Every male

member is requested that..

.. to gather at the school building.

Listen! Listen! Every male

member is requested that..

.. to gather at the school building.

Gentlemen! Gentlemen!

What are they going to do?

All of you stand up in queue.

In a queue! C'mon.

C'mon. Get up.

Move back.

C'mon, go.

Oh, why have you come here?

Just now you announced that

all males should come here.

So I came here.

OK It doesn't matter. Now go home.

Yes. We found one.

We are bringing him. Over.

We'll soon be there.

Idris! Idris!

What? Are you afraid?

I'm not afraid of anybody.

Not even the army people.

Really?

They had come to our home yesterday.

With big guns.

Aunt was afraid. But I wasn't afraid.

Not a gun. With guns.

Do you know how many

types of guns are there?

Made in China. Made in Russia.

Made in America.

Rocket launcher! Grenade!

Here. Made in Kashmir.

When these big guns are shot

then you can see smoke everywhere.

Your ears will explode

listening to their sound.

I saw it when a rocket fell on my home.

Since then I can hear sounds in my ears.

Even in my sleep.

Didn't you get hurt?

I was hurt. But Baba came

on time and saved my life.

Your Baba is a nice man. Isn't he?

He can bring back your Birbal.

C'mon. Let's go to Baba.

Do your family members know

that you've come with me?

No.

Good.

Don't tell anybody about me.

How many times will you repeat it?

You know what Baba says about

these mountains and valleys?

What does your Baba say about them?

At some time all this was sold.

Including us everything

was sold cheaply.

Can you seethe blue sky up there?

Yes.

Even that doesn't belong to us now.

We are paying up the interest,

but the loan doesn't get repaid.

Baba says we must change all this.

"We shall change all this.. "

Were you going to pass

through the forest?

There is no need to worry.

Hey! Why are you blindfolding me?

It is necessary. Otherwise

it will be difficult for me..

.. to take you to Baba.

Have we come to meet the militants?

Do you want Birbal or not?

I want it.

Tie it!

- OK

Let us go.

Is this the correct path?

Do you trust me or not?

I have played blind man's

bluff with Shireen also!

My foot is stuck into dung!

I would have slipped and fallen!

No, it's just mud!

Do not tell lies! I can smell the stink!

Anyway, you are not going to fall.

But I can see nothing! Nothing at all!

Are you breeding a lot of ducks?

May I fire it?

It's not a task for children,

but a man can fire it.

Nothing happened.

Baba is calling you. Come quickly.

Tahaan, let us go in.

I had never thought that

a gun can be so heavy.

Brother ldris, do you also have a gun?

Stop talking nonsense!

Do you want to meet Baba?

Brother ldris, Baba..

Did you like meeting Baba?

Yes. And he said that

I will find Birbal.

But didn't he ask the question?

- He asked

But I said that I too asked

the same question to everybody!

To whom do these mountains

and forests belong?

But my mother and sister

Zoya didn't answer me!

What else did Baba say?

He too didn't answer me.

Instead, he said that I

should go to school everyday.

And I should play.

Did he say anything about me?

Yes, he did. That you

will give me something..

.. to deliver at some place.

Yes; in your next trip,

I will give you a packet.

Are you hiding something?

This is a task for me.

Careful! Careful!

May I see it?

- No, no. Baba may get angry.

But what will you do with it?

I.. hold it.

What does it do?

I will tell you everything

when the time comes.

Will these shoes fit you?

These days, your mind is

becoming like that of Birbal!

I don't know.

Oh no.

Tahan, again you disappeared!

Do you know, yesterday

junior master had a fight..

.. with his mother and father.

He is not ready to marry that girl.

Tahaan! Are you listening to me?

Zoya, I have to go in the early morning.

- Where?

This time I am going to tell mother.

You are doing this everyday!

Mother! Mother! Hadn't I told you?

Again he is going there!

Don't you know? Father went there once..

.. and we are still waiting for him!

I am doing all this

for the sake of Birbal.

Everyone has forgotten

what father had said!

He had said that Tahaan

will never be lonely..

.. if Birbal is with him.

May I go now?

Mother, what's this?

'Mother, please listen to me!'

Suicide bombers were

found in Baramullah.

Tahaan!

You turned out to be very brave!

Are you ready for the 2ndjourney?

Who tied this?

Yaseen, uncle Suhan's nephew.

All day he was adorning him.

He told me not to put

too much load on him.

And uncle Suhan agreed.

Well, I would have

been better off.. hey!

If I had been born as a donkey!

Uncle Suban..

Do not worry. He has said that

if you want to earn money..

.. by working hard, you can do so. Hey!

Brother Jafar who is the

owner of these mountains?

Huh! Uncle, did you see?

The idiot is thinking

of buying the mountains!

Tahaan, these mountains and

forests do not belong to anyone.

In fact, we belong to them.

While we live, we think

that we have bought them.

But after death, we

become one with them.

These mountains have

lived since centuries..

.. and they will live on.

Dar sir, is the purpose

of life served after that?

Who taught you this?

My father used to say that it is

necessary to have a goal in life.

Dear, your father was right.

For me, life is a story.

A short story of a long journey

And it's necessary to have

a purpose in every story.

Jafar, what's your purpose?

Forget it. Shall we go?

Come on! Come on!

Come on! Come on!

Hey, look there! I saw Lasra!

Why would Lasra come in

front of an idiot like him?

Uncle, are you feeding an apple?

You never gave me!

This time I got very

good apples. Pandit!

Birbal!

Where did it go?

Look! Look, what your

donkey has done to the steps!

Where did he go?

Hey, idiot, eat this!

Look!

Hey, donkey! Hey, donkey!

Oh, so you are here!

What do you think?

That you will fool me by running away?

Jafar Khan knows everything!

He knows everything!

Jafar Khan will catch you

from wherever you go, ok?

Do you want to eat an apple?

Eat! Eat! Eat!

Move! Move!

Come! -Where had you gone?

Yes, we will see.

War has benefited only the governments.

Whether it is of this place

or that of across the border!

What does it mean?

It means that your husband will

sit with you, walk with you..

.. dance with you!

All of us know how a father

carrying his dead son's coffin feels!
