people centuries to achieve.

627

00:
59:23,666 -- 00:59:25,999

But while you made the men

capable of faCing the world..

628

00:
59:26,083 -- 00:59:29,082

..you disabled the women.

629

00:
59:30,416 -- 00:59:32,999

That's why a Veer has

beCome an Air Force Pilot..

630

00:
59:33,083 -- 00:59:36,165

..and the girls of the village

remain illiterate and unpolished.

631

00:
59:38,083 -- 00:59:40,165

Girls today have reached the moon.

632

00:
59:40,916 -- 00:59:43,165

They walk

shoulder-to-shoulder with men.

633

00:
59:44,000 -- 00:59:48,665

With education, perhaps, a girl from

this village could've outdone Veer.

634

00:
59:49,500 -- 00:59:50,582

Don't you think so, Father?

635

00:
59:51,833 -- 00:59:55,915

Oh, Chaudhary Sumer Singh.

Where are you loitering?

636

00:
59:56,000 -- 00:59:59,082

Oh! Whenever l'm doing

something really important..

637

00:
59:59,166 -- 01:00:01,915

..she comes and troubles me.

Yes, madam. Now what?

638

01:
00:02,333 -- 01:00:05,499

lt's time to light the Lodi.

Come and get ready.

639

01:
00:06,625 -- 01:00:07,749

All right, l'm coming.

640

01:
00:08,666 -- 01:00:10,499

Come, dear. Let's light the Lodi.

641

01:
00:17,083 -- 01:00:18,999

"Beautiful one like a ringlet one!"

642

01:
00:19,083 -- 01:00:21,582

"Who will save you poor one?"

643

01:
00:21,666 -- 01:00:23,749

"Dullah Bhatti is here for you."

644

01:
00:23,833 -- 01:00:25,999

"The Dullah married off

his daughter."

645

01:
00:26,083 -- 01:00:28,207

"He gave a measure of sugar!"

646

01:
00:28,291 -- 01:00:30,665

"The girl's shawl is torn."

647

01:
00:30,750 -- 01:00:32,790

"Who will stitch her shawl?"

648

01:
00:32,875 -- 01:00:34,999

"The landlords ravished her."

649

01:
00:35,083 -- 01:00:36,999

"Beautiful one like a ringlet one!"

650

01:
00:37,083 -- 01:00:39,332

"Who will save you poor one?"

651

01:
00:39,416 -- 01:00:41,499

"Dullah Bhatti is here for you."

652

01:
00:41,583 -- 01:00:43,707

"Beautiful one like a ringlet one!"

653

01:
00:43,791 -- 01:00:45,832

"Who will save you poor one?"

654

01:
00:45,916 -- 01:00:47,999

"Dullah Bhatti is here for you."

655

01:
00:48,083 -- 01:00:50,165

"Beautiful one like a ringlet one!"

656

01:
00:50,250 -- 01:00:52,499

"Who will save you poor one?"

657

01:
00:52,583 -- 01:00:56,665

"Dullah Bhatti is here for you.

Who will save you poor one?"

658

01:
00:56,750 -- 01:00:57,999

"Dullah Bhatti is here for you.

659

01:
00:58,083 -- 01:01:01,082

Who will save you poor one?

Beautiful one like a ringlet one!"

660

01:
01:02,458 -- 01:01:03,832

Listen everybody.

661

01:
01:04,000 -- 01:01:06,665

Come here. Come on.

662

01:
01:07,000 -- 01:01:09,082

Coming, Father.

663

01:
01:09,500 -- 01:01:11,249

Let's go there.. Coming.

664

01:
01:12,166 -- 01:01:14,915

Everyone, listen to

what l have to say.

665

01:
01:16,500 -- 01:01:20,665

The Cricket pitch that was going to

be made here.. will not happen now.

666

01:
01:20,750 -- 01:01:21,832

Why?

- Why, Father?

667

01:
01:21,916 -- 01:01:26,749

Relax, l'm telling you. Because now

we're building a girls high school.

668

01:
01:28,750 -- 01:01:29,832

The girls are glad.

669

01:
01:31,083 -- 01:01:34,999

l promise you that once

this school is built..

670

01:
01:35,083 -- 01:01:38,915

..the girls won't have to leave

the village for higher studies.

671

01:
01:40,250 -- 01:01:43,999

And one more thing, the

first brick for the school..

672

01:
01:44,083 -- 01:01:49,165

..isn't going to be laid by Maati or

me, but will be laid by the girl..

673

01:
01:49,250 -- 01:01:53,499

..because of whom this school is

being built. Ms. Zaara Hayaat Khan.

674

01:
02:00,666 -- 01:02:07,665

Come, dear.

675

01:
02:09,375 -- 01:02:12,499

Father, how can l..

- Why not?

676

01:
02:13,208 -- 01:02:17,082

Being so young, you've

taught me such a big lesson..

677

01:
02:17,583 -- 01:02:19,082

Then why can't you do

this little thing for me?

678

01:
02:19,750 -- 01:02:20,832

Come, dear, come.

679

01:
02:42,000 -- 01:02:43,082

Oh, Kamli.

680

01:
02:43,500 -- 01:02:47,499

l, Ginda Singh. l really like you.

681

01:
03:12,375 -- 01:03:14,999

Oh. l, Darshan Singh Aulakh..

682

01:
03:15,083 -- 01:03:16,832

Will die for you.

683

01:
03:26,916 -- 01:03:31,082

Maati, is this the custom of Lodi?

- No, this is Veer's father's custom.

684

01:
03:32,291 -- 01:03:38,082

What do you mean?

- ln our time, romance was taboo.

685

01:
03:38,666 -- 01:03:41,665

On top of that, l was from

Madras and he, from Punjab,

686

01:
03:42,583 -- 01:03:46,249

So, one night, during Lodi, he asked

for my hand in front of everybody.

687

01:
03:46,875 -- 01:03:50,249

My parents didn't know what

to say. And we got married.

688

01:
03:51,083 -- 01:03:52,999

After that, ever since we've come

here and started celebrating Lodi..

689

01:
03:53,083 -- 01:03:58,165

..he's started this custom that

if a boy is in love with a girl..

690

01:
03:58,250 -- 01:03:59,832

..he confesses his

love in front of everyone.

691

01:
04:00,250 -- 01:04:01,999

lf the girl wants to refuse..

692

01:
04:02,083 -- 01:04:04,582

..she quietly throws a

fistful of sesame into the fire.

693

01:
04:04,916 -- 01:04:06,999

lf she wants to accept, she

calls out the boy's name..

694

01:
04:07,083 -- 01:04:09,332

..and breaks sugar cane.

695

01:
04:09,833 -- 01:04:11,665

Then after that we get them married.

696

01:
04:12,041 -- 01:04:14,999

Wow, this is such a

lovely custom. That means..

697

01:
04:15,083 -- 01:04:19,082

..when the bride and the groom agree,

what's the need of a priest.

698

01:
04:19,541 -- 01:04:21,415

Hey, Saraswati Kaur.

699

01:
04:25,291 -- 01:04:29,999

My lady from Madras. l,

Chaudhary Sumer Singh..

700

01:
04:30,083 -- 01:04:32,999

..ask for your hand in marriage

for the next seven lifetimes.

701

01:
04:41,625 -- 01:04:42,707

l've done it.

702

01:
04:44,000 -- 01:04:45,082

Come on, girl.

703

01:
04:46,750 -- 01:04:47,832

l'll set him right.

704

01:
04:49,333 -- 01:04:52,999

Let that be. Come on. Come on.

705

01:
05:03,750 -- 01:05:06,165

What.. my proposal.. Rejected?

706

01:
05:06,333 -- 01:05:12,082

Maati, what're you doing?

Father doesn't stand a chance?

707

01:
05:12,541 -- 01:05:15,999

Tell him if he wants to

spend seven lifetimes with me..

708

01:
05:16,083 -- 01:05:19,082

..he has to fulfil

certain promises. ls he ready?

709

01:
05:19,166 -- 01:05:21,499

Promises? What promises, Maati?

710

01:
05:23,500 -- 01:05:25,165

Sorry, Father. that's it. Now,

drop the sugar cane.

711

01:
05:26,500 -- 01:05:29,165

Okay, l'll drop it.

712

01:
05:30,916 -- 01:05:40,332

713

01:
05:40,500 -- 01:05:45,082

"l would sacrifice my life for you

if only l could know what you want."

714

01:
05:45,250 -- 01:05:49,249

"l would agree to everything,

my beautiful one."

715

01:
05:49,333 -- 01:05:54,749

"l would sacrifice my life for you

if only l could know what you want."

716
