Rakhma's made it

Great!

If you don't like the

green vegetable, don't eat it

You've made it?

No wonder! I find it tastes

even bItter than the dessert

The mind keeps worrying Who knows

what Destiny has in store for us!

Tuka.

Yes Father?

The signs don't look good!

Why Father?

Ike birrds can sense an earthquake...

...moneylenders also

have to be vigilant

when a famine looms large

The famer looks at the sky...

...the moneylender at his capital

Now's the time to collect our dues

Do one thing. Leave tomorrow at dawn

Go to Bhikaji

And collect all our pending dues

He will complain...

..."The seeds are burnt;

it was no use sowing them"

But don't listen to him

Take from him...

...whatever you can get

And if there's no money,

ask for jewellery

But what's the rush Father?

let one big shower of rain fall

Then we will have a right to ask

The rains are delayed somItimes

Tell him this

Say that the crop prospects are good

But there's a problem at home

Tell him that your

father is seriouslyill

I should lie to him?

Isn't it true that the

situation is serious?

I will not tell a lie!

But I'll handle this. You don't worry

And take 20 mounds of grain

to Mr. Kulkarni - Okay

I've measured it. Ask Ganpa

to load it in the cart - Yes

Go away!

- What

When I have to go to my parents'

home, you decide to go out of town

Shouldn't I obey my father?

When I'm back, we'll take the

bullock cart and head for Pune. Okay?

And what if the rains begin?

We'll get wIt

How else would I see you all soaked?

You are rarely bashful.

But you look lovely when you are

You just praise my looks

But you think Rakhma is a bItter cLook

You only ask about my cough

Your thoughts are elsewhere

Why? Didn't I praise

your milk dessert?

You praised it?

- Of course!

But you didn't ask why I made it

When do we need a reason?

Must be some festival

You don't see any change in me?

You have a co-wife to assist you now

You seem a lettle chubby

I had made a vow to the Goddess

We'll have to go and fulfill it

I'm four months pregnant

Rakhma

Really...?

Yes.

I'm not a moneylender to tell lies

See, weren't you hasty

about getting me a second wife?

Yes, I was

let it be. She brought good luck

That's great!

So it's her luck?

All my prayers and vows are in vain!

Oh Lord, having two scales at work,

and two wives at home...

Maintaining the

correct balance is a problem!

Has the sky fallen on you...

...that you and your father

can't even wait till the crop grows?

The truth is that is

that my father's old now

So he worries more

You owe us the most money

- Yes.

You've overstepped the loan

period by six months - Yes

You and I are equally

worried about the future

Do one thing

Give me one share of

the dues now - But...

Give the rest after the crop

This way my father will have

one worry less in his old age.

...and I will have the

satisfaction of having obeyed him

Bhikaji, believe me. I feel no

joy in taking away this ornament

There's no need to measure, Uncle

My father has measured it

Yes, but just because it's the custom

That's fine by me

It falls short by two mounds

That's impossible

He can tell the

measure with just one look

His estimate has not gone

wrong in the last 20 years

Count it again

You count it if you like

How much less?

Two mounds

How did Father's estimate go wrong?

His estimate is correct

Our times are to blame

We're headed for famine Tuka

Famine!

His estimate is correct

Our times are to blame

We're headed for famine Tuka

Famine!

Brother!

Kanha, what's wrong?

What happened?

Our Father's gone, brother

father's dead

- What?

Brother-in-law...

Mother...

Mother, how did this happen?

How, Mother? Is this true?

He was fine when I left

He didn't even wait for me?

Mother...

He sent you to collect the

dues and here God tLook him away

Who dies? Who is born?

Who goes to heaven or hell?

The five elements

that make up our bodies

Live together in our bodies

When they scatter after death

All hope is at an end

The pot is in the water

and there's water in the pot

There is water inside and outside

When the pot (body) breaks,

the waters mix

This is the teaching of wise men

This verse,

by the saint-poIt Kabir, says

that the Soul and

the Supreme Being are one.

Listen.

- Yes.

Just look at him closely

Who does he resemble?

His chin... the shape of his eyes...

Doesn't he look like Father-in-law?

Yes Rakhma, you are right

A broad forehead, thick hair...

Where are you off to?

Showing mother-in-law.

Mother-in-law, you haven't

looked at my baby properly

Look

Look, it's father-in-law come back

See

Isn't it?

Tell your grandmother to look at me.

Kankayee... Kankayee...

Kankayee...

- What happened?

Mother-in-law... What happened?

- Mother...

Mother-in-law...

- Mother...

Mother-in-law...

Mother...

Mother...

Mother... Mother...

Mother...

Mother...

Brother, mother has passed away.

We have become orphans now.

What I had brought to show you...

Mother... Mother...

Mother-in-law...

What are you

searching for in this corner?

Your mother's dead

Who are you hiding from?

What are you running away from?

Come on and tell brother-in-law

that his elder brother is still alive

Tell him that you will

look after the family

That your shoulders are strong

enough to bear the family's burden

come on... your parentsare gone

Now at least come

back to earth. Come on

What happened?

What happened?

What sort of man is he?

Unmoved even by his mother's death

Is he a stone?

No, he can't be

Water can spring from a stone

Tomorrow, even if I die...

...this man will just wipe

his eyes once and go away

He doesn't need anyone

I never complained to my parents

Or to anybody in the village

I only flung barbs at my mother-in-law

She would listen quiItly

Now who can I complain to?

Talk to?

This man will now mend his ways.

It's a curse

orrd vitthal has cursed this house

"Glory to Lord Rama and Krishna"

"Glory to Lord Rama and Krishna"

"Glory to Lord Rama and Krishna"

"Glory to Lord Rama and Krishna"

Serve me more sweIts

Take care of each other now

Your mother...

...was one in a million

She cared for everyone

She loved everyone

She wouldn't have been

able to bear this famine

So she left...

...us behind and went away

Take care, all of you

for my husband...

He has not eaten for two days

Nothing's wrong. Why would I lie?

She was fine till yesterday

Of course she was. She's fine now too

- What's wrong?

We just came to check on

sister Manjula's health - And?

She's not telling us much

Is sister-in-law okay?

Yes. She had a fever since

morning but she's bItter now

These people just won't listen

What on earth?

Goodbye

Goodbye

They came to snoop around

If she dies, the brahmin gets his fees

work for the man who cremates

an d money for the wood-seller

The florists will earn and the

villagers will get another feast

Even vultures wait for death to happen
