What happens to this city? Either there is ash or smoke.
Why doesn't anyone say anything?
Why do they tolerate this smoke quietly?
It's the limit to tolerance.
Let's douse cigarettes and cigars.
There is a ban on smoking in public places.
You've to pay a fine.
Don't smoke, don't let others smoke.
You've to pay dearly for smoking.
Everyone desires happiness.
But at what cost?
Smoking costs dearly.
"Smoking is injurious to your health"
"to your loves ones too."
You've to pay dearly for smoking.
"What is life? A delicate arrangement of the five elements..."
"What is death? A disarray of these elements" - Brij Narayan Chakbast.
One moment
I've brought you a gift.
Thank you.
Are you okay?
Feels a bit weird, doesn't it?
Open the door!
What filth are you up to?
My clothes?
Open the door!!!
WOW!

Well done!
Move it!
Get his name.

- What do you do? - Sir, I am a student
I am a student, sir!
- Where are you from? - Allahabad.
Allahabad.
Is this what they leach you?
Can't we agree on a settlement?
Show him a good "settlement"!
I will 'settle' things with madam till then.
Your name?
Name?!
- Say it! - Devi.
Devi, you're life is now ruined.
- Piyush! - Catch him!
Drag him out!
Let's work out that "settlement" you asked for.
No, sir!
I'm a college student, Sir. It's my first time here.
Come out, you brat!
Open up!
Get me his wallet.
Open the door!
This will get him out in a minute!
Father's name: Ramdhari Agarwal.
Emergency number: 9415257547.
Come out now kiddo, or your dad gets the call.
Sir... I just want to use the toilet.
You can shit in prison. Your dad's phone is busy.
Please don't call my dad! I beg you!
We will call him again, shortly.
Please let us go.
Where are you from? The local brothel?
Face the camera.
No - From Nepal?
You've got it wrong.
Really? We've got it wrong?
What are you waiting for?
Break open the damn door!
Come out now!
Are you at a confessional?
Knock it down!
- Sir! - Yes?
Sir, look what he's done!
What now?
Hey Pandey! Call the ambulance.
Hurry UP.
Careful!
Get her dressed and take her to the station.
Home already, son?
Let me get you some water.
It's okay, I'll get it myself
I'll get it.
Mother, it's time to prepare the stove.
Son, get holy fire to fire up the stove.
Wake Sikandar up too, his shift starts soon.
Brother!
Brother...
Sikandar...
Brother...
Mother sent me to wake you up.
Wake up!
Ram, the name of God, is eternal truth!
Dad, I'll light the stove and be back.
- And Sikandar? - He's up... on his way here.
Mr. Motilal...
Come, have some sweets
I can't leave my shop unattended.
Come on! Nobody's going to steal anything.
They've got sweets. They're from the university, right?
We're doing an anthropology project.
They want to know about our ghats, enlighten them.
You're our ghat scholar!
And you, our scholar on shady alleys!
The sleazy ones at night!
You're recording this?
Yes sir, one tends to miss details while writing.
History... Huh?
Earlier, the banks of Mother Ganges were a vast forest.
Cremation rituals began in the Holy River.
So, various kings set up ghats.
Priests from all over started settling here.
Ghats were assigned...
according to state, caste... and priests.
Did you understand?
The ghat we're sitting on right now...
is under dispute.
Like Kashmir - Yes, like Kashmir.
The Maharasthrians claim it to be theirs...
as so do the Gujratis.
What do we do with this brat?
Meet Jhonta. Ghat hero, running for president...
but ask him to get me customers and he runs like an athlete!
- What happened? - I was about to...
Bring me my phone! Hurry up! Now!
The Scindia ghat, the one right next to ours...
I'll look for customers, master!
Kids these days are so restless, always on the run.
And so is this wretched phone.
Misery of modern times!
Hello?
Yes, speaking.
Look at the ingenuity of these kids.
She changed into a saree, all spruced up.
They barely knew each other...
and just look ham!
What for?
What did you tell us a while back?
Say it out loud.
Enlighten your father.
What was that phrase?
"Curbing curiosity!"
if I tip off a journalist...
it would make the front page.
What is this?
A file of another department on my desk?
What shit!!
Make the corrections and get out of my face!
What is your name again?
Pathak.
Vidhyadhar Pathak.
I offer ritual services at Nandeshwar ghat.
I used to be a Sanskrit professor at the university.
- Now I translate. - We'll call you in 3 days.
Pay the bail here, and take your daughter for now.
Mr. Mishra, what do you mean "for now"?
If anything happens to the boy...
it'll be a case of abetment of suicide.
Court, media, journalists, the whole shebang!
No pleading! Go pay the bail over there.
We're from the same community.
Go pay the bail and get out!
Centrifugal force turned into centripetal and people hit a deadlock there...
so they started moving upwards.
And this led to the birth of Civil Engineering.
Any question?
No, sir!
- You can do this alone. - Come on, I need the support.
Add some flavoured corn in it.
Some green chilies on the side.
Roast it properly!
Like always.
Of course, madam! Exactly the way you want it.
Pooja!
Happy Birthday to you!
Please?
Thank you.
Did you like it?
So when is the birthday treat?
How will she explain this to her folks?
As in?
How will she explain who gave this huge gift?
I'm cool with any excuse.
Oh really? Give this to me.
Here, take this back.
No, I got this as a gift.
Gifts are not supposed to be returned. Come on now!
But what will she tell her folks?
Add more of these peanuts.
- Say something. - She can say you've gifted it to her.
Like her folks are going to believe that!
Enough, don't roast it more! A dash of green sauce too.
More of these chilli flakes as well.
Last time you put very little garlic in it.
- Be generous this time. - Yes, madam.
Have you ever heard of a girl gifting a teddy bear to another girl?
Don't they?
Nor have I ever seen a girl fuss over a 5 rupee snack!
We need to go.
Take this teddy with you.
No, thanks, we're in a hurry! Let's go.
Good morning, master!
I had an early bath today!
You haven't shown up for 3 days.
Mind your own business
ls your father home?
He's gone to the ghat.
Call him.
The boy is dead.
Did you offer some tea?
Have a seat.
Sorry, I'm late.
Well, the boy didn't survive.
They're doing an autopsy and we'll have the report soon.
Here are the court papers.
Please fill them up.
Wait...
what do we have to do with the court?
It's a case of abetment of suicide.
But the boy...
killed himself on your watch.
I mean... because of police initimidation.
So now you are acting the Professor?
Here's the thing...
you can save your lecture to jerk off your ghat customers.
Okay?
You must have seen it on TV?
The R.K Puram sex scandal, Jammu and Kashmir sex scandal.
Your daughter is now part of a big sex scandal!
Sir, please suggest a way out.
How much do you earn?
Around 8 to 10 thousand rupees.
She earns as well, right?
Yes... at a computer coaching institute.
I won't beat around the bush.
Abetment...
media, court... I can handle all of that.
But you'll have to make arrangements
3 lakh rupees. I'm giving you 3 months.
Sir, you've got us wrong.
We're principled people.
We can hardly manage 50,000 rupees!
From now on...
never ever...
ever... negotiate with me.
Am I selling you a bloody soap?!
I'm here to save your honour.
I have your daughter's sex scandal video on my phone.
One upload and the whole city will get off on your daughter!
Arrange 1 lakh Rupees in two days.
Don't just nod like a horse!
What will you do?
Arrange 1 lakh Rupees in two days.
And, after 2 months?
2 lakh Rupees
ls the math really that hard?
Where to Madam?
- To the cremation ghat. - It's forbidden for women.
Hit the skull hard, 5 times.
Deepak, give him a hand.
Piyush! My son!
Harder! Smash the skull to release the soul!
How many more days left in college?
Two more months, Dad.
Then exams and placements!
- What? - I mean job placements.
Don't you need to pay something to get a job?
Not anymore, Mother.
The Railway and Electric companies...
hire on merit.
Instead of supervising the ash cleaning, you're feasting here?
What if the boys steal the silver?
Uncle Shambhu is supervising it.
Shambhu is a pothead!
So? Am I not even supposed to eat?
How much will the job pay?
They will let me know after the interview.
Great! Get out of this place.
The sooner, the better.
Otherwise, even your life will end up torching bodies.
Bread!
Look what I found, I think it's silver!
Show me!
Throw it you fool. It's aluminium.
Will you ever explain yourself?
I met him at the coaching centre.
I used to type out his thesis...
and we became friends.
That's all?
Yes, I felt nice talking to him.
Did you even think twice before doing it?
Even once?
Did you?
Answer me!
What?
- Cat got your tongue? - I don't know.
A boy just killed himself.
A ransom of 3 lakhs on our heads.
I just broke my 1 lakh Rupees fixed deposit.
You're one step away from jail...
and you say "I don't know".
I fished out 26 Rupees.
Please, let me be part of the competition.
Are you actually asking me to let you gamble?
It's not gambling!
It's sport and I have become a pro at it.
Why are you acting so smart?
Today I will play, no matter what.
Why don't you shut up and do some work!
Got screwed over by a bull or what?
Pooja looks so pretty with the teddy.
Cute, isn't she?
Can you ask for her friend's name?
How would I ask?
"My friend has a crush on your poetry-reading friend...
give me her name so he can ask her out?"
OK, how about we send her a written request?
Deepak is getting emotional about her.
Like they say...
"Shake the mango all night,
it'll only fall off the tree when it's time is ripe".
What is that noise there?
Okay, listen...
do you remember what she looks like?
- Sure? - Yes.
Okay.
This is her college group page. She's got to be here.
Won't you find her in Pooja's album?
Of course! She'll be in Pooja's friend list.
Is that her?
No.
There... there... That's her!
Shaalu Gupta.
Gupta family, eh?
Awesome, dude!
Now create your Facebook account and let the fireworks begin!
I mean send her a friend request.
Should we?
Yeah.
Come one, come all, make big money! Here's the super competition!
In half an hour, increase your gain! 10 rupees turns to 50! 50 turns to 200!
Now listen to the rules.
These kids will dive in and bring out coins!
Bet on the boy you think will get the most coins.
Great! We have your 20 Rupees on Lokua.
Don't think twice! Just place your bets!
20 Rupees on Netwa.
The competition is about to begin!
1... 2...
Now let's see who gets the most coins!
Lokua has 3 coins!
- Netwa, hurry! Faster! - Babua's got only one coin this time.
Let's see who's winning... Munna has 6 coins in one dive.
Hold your breath folks.
- Please let me join in! - No, just watch.
Those who've bet on Netwa, will get three times their money!
Hello?
Hello Devi?
Yes?
Where were you hiding your phone all this while?
You think I am an idiot?
I know what dirty business you've been up to.
Bloody witch...
Move!
Hey!
What are you doing here?!
Who let you in?
I came hereto collect my stuff...
and if you make those filthy calls again, I'll thrash the hell out of you!
He was our top student!
Weren't you ashamed to do it?
Whatever it was, we both were equally involved.
But he was the only one to die.
Sikandar!
Thrust the leg into the pyre, you idiot!
Sikandar!
Looks like the old man is drunk.
Pour me another drink 'King of the Dams'!
One more for your health!
Do I look like a king to you?
Come on! There are only two kings in Banaras!
One is Kashi Naresh and the other is the Dom king.
One on that side...
and one on this side.
Look at that miserable Shambhu.
How many 'bonus days' in a year?
Hey! Shambhu!
Yes, sir!
Once every 10 years.
Shambhu gets a 'bonus day' every 10 years!
Meaning?
That day...
he gets all the money from every cremation here.
Shambhu's father...
got his 'bonus day' once in a year.
Overjoyed by that, he had ten children.
The 'bonus day' got split.
Since the father had one day in a year...
Shambhu inherited a tenth of the 'bonus day'
Now he has one every 10 years.
When is your next 'bonus day', Shambhu"?
Never again
I sold my rights to Lala.
He gave me 1 lakh Rupees for it.
I'll live the rest of my life off alms
if I sell my 'bonus day'...
I'll get over 10 lakh Rupees. Right, lala?
As if you are ever going to sell it to me.
Should we sell?
Asking your ignorant son?
He has nothing to do with our cremation ghat!
He's nothing but an educated fool!
You're insulting my son?
I'll never sell my 'bonus day' to you!
As if you'd ever think to do so!
Father, I need some money. For the Durga Pooja Carnival.
There, in my shirt.
May I take 300 Rupees?
Take as much as you want.
You're the only one!
Are you going to the Durga pooja carnival tonight?
20 rupees.
Put the watch in the hat.
Easy! Right inside.
Now it's inside.
Now blow into the hat.
The watch has...
vanished!
The watch will re-appear...
in someone's pocket.
He has it!
Man in the red shirt!
Check your pockets.
He found the watch.
Come on stage, young man!
- Your name? - Deepak
I'll never smoke again. Yesterday, my friends forced me to.
I deserve at least 12,000 a month with my qualifications.
Don't negotiate. He was my best student.
Professor taught us till 10th grade.
It's thanks to him that we are what we are.
Tea, please.
No thank you, I have to go...

Perfect!

- Thank you so much, Sanjay! - Oh! Come on, Sir.
It's the least I could do
I must take this call.
Please, have some water. The new Earthenware pot...
makes the water taste very sweet!
He meant 5,500 rupees only.
What he meant was a lot of respect for your father.
Thank you.
So you're studying at the Polytechnic Institute?
Yes. Civil engineering, final year.
We had a college strike last year...
otherwise, I would have a job by now.
What are your hobbies?

Yeah.

Schezwan sauce?

Please start - No, after you.
No, you go first.
So...
now we're friends right?
By the way,"-
if you're ever in trouble, let me know.
What will you do?
Ill...
sort things out for you...
if anyone bothers you...
teases you or makes you cry.
There are lots of nasty boys around here.
Okay.
What if...
you make me cry?
Me? No... Why?
I'd sort that out for you too.
Write the student's name here, in capital letters.
This is our prospectus with a complimentary CD.
All the information is in here.
Come back tomorrow and it'll be done.
Thank you - Thank you.
You're quite a sweet talker!
Is this your first job?
No.
What happened to the previous job?
I didn't like the job.
I know exactly where your previous job was.

Hometown: Allahabad?
He passed away.
Something tragic happened to him.
I read about it.
I'm from his coaching centre.
We have some files that belonged to him.
And he owed us some money.
He was to return some books as well, so...
could I have his address please?
Come out now! The game's over.
Who has the most coins?
Hey, Munna!
Who is the winner?
Jhonta!
I told you I would win.
Jhoma has won 980 Rupees.
You were great!
Hello?
Hide these stars safely in my eyes, the night will be along one.
Wanderers like us, will meet somewhere, perhaps in the morning light.
Then?
"And then?"
That was it.
Sorry, I didn't get it. I mean I got some of it... it was terrific!
You're such a dumbo!
And very cute!
What did you just say?
I didn't say anything.
But I heard that!
If I recite Chakbast, you'll faint!
Your birthday's soon, right? I saw on Facebook.
Really?
Facebook didn't tell you everything.
What?
A Picnic!
Shaalu?
Mom's calling. We'll talk later.
Hold on...
What is it?
Please call me by my name.
Only if you memorize two poems...
then I'll decide. I have to go now.
Hello?
Bye.
A poem by Dushyam Kumar.
You move like the misty morning train
I tremble like a bridge in the rain.
In the deep jungle of your gaze.
I lose my way, no trail to blaze.
Who is it?
May I speak with Ramdhari Agarwal?
Speaking. Who is this?
I... I...
What do you want? Hello?
I'm calling from Kashi Co-operative bank.
We have a new scheme
I don't need anything, thank you!
I'll come straight to the point.
Will you sleep with me?
Tell me.
I won't tell anyone.
You had sex with him too, right?
Why are you worried about your wife? This is good quality stuff.
It's too expensive - It is not!
Let me give you a discount.
Think it over and come back later, okay?
I quit my job.
Pathak...
your daughter hasn't visited for ages.
Good morning.
Get out of here.
What?
Should I drown myself with shame?
Go away.
Madam just quit her job!
What were you thinking?
Nothing.
"Nothing", "I don't know", that's all you know!
Was I ever hard on you?
I've always been liberal... raised you like a boy.
What did I do to deserve such a scandal?
I haven't created any scandal.
Then what is this?
All this scampering for loose change! What is this?
On the ghat, in the streets...
I'm constantly afraid someone will ask about you! What is this?
That's your fear.
Hence, I've decided not to live here anymore.
The smaller the city, the narrower the world-view.
After all this, you're still living in this house with dignity...
- And my world-view is narrow? - Wow!
How considerate of you, Father!
Should I start paying rent as well?
Look at me.
What do you want from me?
Why are you taking revenge?
Revenge for what?
For Mother!
You don't even remember what she looked like.
You were just 6 years old.
Are 6 year-olds blind?
I took her to the hospital, didn't I?
For 2 days, she begged you to take her, but you didn't.
Your students mattered more.
You did nothing!
I thought it was just fever. I messed up.
But I never neglected you, did I?
I left my job at the university, for your sake!
I ended up selling books on the ghat, for your sake!
You think I killed your mother?
So do you think I killed that boy?
Answer me?
He killed himself!
You're crazy. You're getting confused.
I'm not getting confused.
I will defend my honor.
I won't go to prison.
You have decided everything for yourself!
I'm the fool who arranges the money
I'll arrange the ransom too.
Next you'll say you don't even need a father.
Do what you feel like.
I tremble like a bridge in the rain.
In the deep jungle of your gaze.
I lose my way, no trail to blaze.
I never thought about it. I like them all.
How can you like all the seasons?
I like the monsoons!
You recorded her voice?
Brilliant!
First, I recorded it on my phone...
then I cued songs based on her words.
Well done! The student has become the master!
That's a smart gift, bro!
Dude, she's from an upper-caste.
Don't get too emotional about her.
Does she know you're from a lower caste?
Let her know about it, then do as you please.
Not everyone is progressive.
OK, I'll tell her later.
Come on! There's lot of time for that.
When he gets a job, none of this will matter.
- Give him your motorbike keys. - Why?
He has one more surprise for her.
Give the keys! He'll pay you for the fuel.
First word.
Plant?
Lamp?
Bowl!
DeePak!
It's a flower, not Deepak.
DeePak!
Where to?
Wherever you want.
Get on.
Your bag?
Sorry!
- Shall I sit? - Yes, sure.
You know what we boys call your bus?
What?
Chick-Wagon!
What is this?
- Is it an eraser? - Yes.
You have final year Civil Engineering books?
No sir.
- Concrete design? - No sir.
- Structure analysis? - No sir.
You got all your books?
Pack these please!
You never told me where you live.
You know Bhelupur?
- Bhelupur? - Right after that.
My friend Prema lives there
I'll say I'm going there and I'll visit you.
Great idea, right?
You'll come to my house?
I mean... your parents won't mind?
If you don't feel like it, I won't.
No, I didn't mean that.
Hey, hold this for a second.
This is your birthday gift.
Put them on.
Is it audible?
Thank you.
Have you ever been to Sangam?
I come here often.
In few days we'll be off on a pilgrimage in a bus.
All of us: Uncle, aunt, grandpa, and grandma.
Will you come along?
- Where? - With us.
With you?
I'll have to think about it.
What is it?
You must be the youngest in your family, right?
Right! How did you know?
The youngest are always chatterboxes.
That hurts! Your hand is like a hammer!
It's the ring.
My uncle gave it to me when I was a kid.
It's stuck now.
My fingers grew...
the ring stayed the same.
Everybody loves me because I'm the youngest.
What is it?
I don't know.
You're the youngest, right? So I kissed you.
Shaalu.
Will you marry me?
I don't know.
Will your folks agree?
I don't know.
You want to meet them?
Will you introduce me?
You won't tell me where you live...
but you are in a hurry to come to my place?
- Shall I go? - You stay near by?
Around the corner, the house on the left.
Where's your house?
You said it was near Bhelupur...
Shivala?
Kamacha!
OK, I got it.
- Durgakund, right? - Why?
What's bothering you?
I told you I stay near Bhelupur. You have nothing else to talk about?
I was just joking.
You think this is funny?
Want to know where I live? Come, I'll take you.
Come, let me take you there and curb your curiosity!
You want the truth?
I live by Harischchandra Ghat. I was born and raised there.
We burn bodies, light pyres.
Me, my father, my uncles, my brother... all of us, for ages.
Ever see a body burn?
Tell me, have you?
I see them all day, every day. I burn the dead, day and night.
In the fire, the skin melts and all that's left is the bones.
We smash the skull and wash the ashes into the Ganges.
Can you imagine? Want to come and see?
What happened? Won't you use your friend's pretext now?
Where's my tip?
Why?
An employment letter from the government deserves a good tip.
You're the new employee right?
Yes.
Please have a seat.
Just 2 minutes later...
and you could have filled my water bottle too.
I'm Sadhya.
Hello.
The railway has printed a great guide.
We had to learn without books, the hard way!
Look at this...
This is Mr. Mukherjee.
He used to work here before you joined.
He refused to learn computers.
- May I use this? - Yes, sure.
Railways relocated him to a remote area in Rajasthan.
Now he issues train tickets manually.
You must be well trained in computers?
Yes.
Very nice.
Ticket!
Good morning.
- Where to? - Lalpur.
Shaalu, aunt is calling you.
You know...
you're not like the other boys!
Really? How?
There is a certain sense of honesty in you.
Like the honesty in Nida Fazli's poetry.
Now who is this Nida Fazli?
That's how honest you are!
The food was delicious...
but the salad was stale.
Even the lentils were brilliant.
It better be. The owner's from our caste.
So, you finally called, huh?
It was you who overreacted that day...
and now you're mad at me?
Sum!
I didn't ask for an apology.
- I'm so stupid! - That's true
I have no manners.
Even that is true!
Where've you reached?
Haven't even crossed the state yet.
Near the border.
OK, listen...
My parents...
they...
they'll never approve of you.
They're stuck in the past with their old-fashioned ideas.
But I'm with you.
With time, parents do come around.
Just get yourself a good job.
Yes, I'm doing my best.
Placements season is approaching. I will do my best!
That's the spirit! I'll handle the rest.
If it comes to it, I'll run away with you.
OK, take care! Bye!
Hey man! Let's go back!
We just came in!
I have a lot to study.
Hey, turn the boat around.
Sir... extra sheet, please.
Thank you.
I'm doing my final year in civil engineering...
from Seth Kinaram Agarwal Polytechnique College.
My career objective is to pursue a career in engineering...
with focus on mechanical drafting.
Deepak: Can't wait to see you. I'm about to get a job!
Shove the skull inside
I'll go get Deepak to help.
Hey, Deepak.
- What is it? - Hurry up.
Dad's drunk again and there are lots of bodies to burn.
Wake up!
Everybody wants to avoid work in this family!
I'm bloody tired of this bonded labour!
Hey, Deepak!
Wait up, you thief!
One more time and I'll throw you in these pyres!
They have not even covered the bodies properly.
Shambhu! Light some pyres there.
I'm on it.
Bathe this one first.
DeePak!
Light some pyres over there and then some more over there.
There?
Near the edge. As many as you can.
- Shall I finish here first? - Yes.
More sawdust!
Sikandar needs more wood. Go help him.
Deepak! Give us a hand.
Be careful.
Easy.
Did the cops say anything?
That the pilgrims' bus fell into the Ganges.
Really?
Public aid workers dumped all the bodies here.
Not a single survivor?
No.
You know...
28 trains stop at this station.
Guess how many don't?
64!
Which means, it's easy to come here...
but it's difficult to leave!
Could you check the status of this ticket?
Listen... I know it was fun.
But we need to get back now.
One more day.
Not confirmed yet.
Could you check the last minute availabilities?
Even one seat for both of us is fine.
One seat? I like that...
No seats available.
- Any cancellations? - None whatsoever!
Come and see this amazing competition!
Never before seen!
Jhonta!
And now, ladies and gentlemen...
these kids will dive.
Jhonta!
He's not here. Bet on someone else.
Put your money on Babua. He's sure to win!
Put it on Babua.
- How much? - 200 Rupees.
Professor bets 200 on Babua!
Get ready
1...
2...
- Can you see anything in my mouth? - No!
Now I'll put this ball in my mouth. Watch closely!
Now... 1... 2... and...
Here's your share
- I deserve at least 500 Rupees. - We'll adjust it next time.
How much did you lose?
Look how late it is!
Do you hear me?
Turned mute, have you?
Where were you?
Having fun.
Are you hereto work or have fun?
I'm having fun with my own money! Why is your ass on fire?
Shut up!
Those other orphan kids have ruined you.
Show some respect!
You will not go anywhere during a competition.
Acting like the king of Banaras!
Throwing money down the drain!
I'll tell Devi!
Do what you want.
Sit your butt here!
Don't you dare move.
Sit down!
Such arrogance!
From now on, I want all your winnings.
The internship discussion topic is...
the effects of industrialization...
on human life and on society at large.
Say something, Deepak.
You've been quiet for a really longtime.
No, it's okay. Take your time.
"I like poetry..."
"You move like the misty morning train..."
I tremble like a bridge in the rain".
"If it comes to that, I'll run away with you."
When does this grief ever end?
Deepak, get up!
You're being crazy!
You need to control yourself.
Hey Deepak, take my bike keys.
Shaalu!!!
You promised the translation would be done by today.
The printers are sitting idle.
Mr. Pathak?
Is everything OK?
I'll deliver it within 3 days
3 more days?
Devi's not keeping well these days.
Mr. Varma...
could you give me an advance please?
You've already kept me hanging like a bat.
Still, I can't say no.
Here you go.
It's fine.
Good bye!
Sorry for the delay!
How much is this?
30,000 Rupees for now...
Come with me.
See that gate over there?
Yes.
There's a shop opposite.
"Pappu scrap dealer."
Sell this crappy old engine for 10 or 15,000 Rupees.
The thing is we are trying...
I think we'll be able to complete the payment soon.
You think this is a joke?
This is not enough.
Are you a child?
I'll pay the rest this week.
Please take this.
You better clear it this week...
and complete the balance by next month.
Money?
Please hurry, sir!
- Where to? - Howrah.
As a "Devi"...
you should have 4 arms on each side
8 tickets in record speed!
Sir, please hurry.
What's the rush?
My father says...
if you haven't tasted kheer...
you're missing one of life's greatest pleasures.
Here, have some.
No, you have it.
That goes without saying.
Father's cooked it himself.
It's his birthday today.
Oh, OK.
Wow - Isn't it delicious?
Yes very.
Do you live alone?
No, I live with my father.
Father lives alone.
I mean, he's alone during the day.
'Kheer'?
Haven't cooked it in a while, so I thought...
I just had dinner. Keep it, I'll have it tomorrow.
Have it, please.
You're so fond of it.
It's good
ls there any milk left for tomorrow morning?
What is it?
I completed a month at work today. So...
it's my salary cheque.
How much?
20 thousand Rupees.
Great!
Come, sit next to me.
You never told me your job was confirmed.
It's temporary
I'll work until we arrange the ransom money.
Then...
And then?
I'm planning to take up a course at Allahabad university
I'll work part-time near the university.
You want to move out?
Yes.
Why?
If it wasn't for this case, I would have already left.
Maybe I'm better off alone.
Allahabad isn't too far
- I'll come back here once in a while. - What about your father?
I don't fit in your life anywhere?
If you've figured out so much then...
Go.
I did not kill your mother!
I'll quietly sleep on the ghat!
Father, please!
Don't cry, please.
Narrow gauges are still used in hilly areas.
Broad-gauge technology will eventually replace it.
- Graduated first in your class? - Yes.
You're hired for a six-month trial in Allahabad.
Thank you, sir - Congratulations.
Now we're on it completely.
Even Devi's now got a temporary job.
I have a feeling we'll pay the dues soon
6th of the next month is your last day to pay up.
Or else the video's going up on YouTube.
I'm sure you know what YouTube is?
Dad, shall we leave?
Yes, let's go.
Today on the eve of Maha Shivratri.
We will have the biggest competition till date.
So on this note.
All hail in the name of... Lord Mahadev!
All okay?
Take down my bet - How much?
10,000 Rupees.
- You'll win right? - Obviously!
Did you know Devi...
there's always one friend in every group...
who is considered the most wise.
Yes.
Back in college... I used to be that intellectual.
All my friends used to seek my help with their problems.
My advice to everyone...
whatever is in your heart, say it out loud!
Hiding will get you nothing.
Let's see who is going to win today!
Jhonta, dive there!
Hurry up! Faster!
On the extreme end.
Now that you're leaving...
I think it's time I should listen to the "intellectual" inside me...
and tell you what is in my heart.
Jhonta!
Dive, Munna!
Everything okay?
Sum!
I have to leave.
Give way, move!
Everybody move from here!
Give way!
Jhonta!!!
I won't ever let you play this game, my child!
What?
I lost all your money, isn't it?
No.
What happened?
Want to see a magic trick?
Do you see anything in my hand?
Anything in this one?
No.
Anything in my mouth?
1... 2... 3...
Whose is it?
It's for you.
Where did you find it?
Found it in the river while diving.
Yes, great!
Thank you.
It's hot!
I've packed lunch. Have it on the train.
You eat, I'll pack.
It's lovely.
Shall we go?
Blessings.
Call me once you reach.
- I'm off. - Hurry up.
Step back.
Go sit - See you soon, Dad.
Hello!
I'm hereto see Mr. Ramdhari Agarwal
I am Devi Pathak.
Piyush was my friend. That day...
Hold on. It's better we talk inside!
- What are you doing? Are you crazy? - Why have you come here?
Are you okay?
Why?
What harm did he ever do to you?
Water?
30 rupees to go to Sangam!
Come on, miss!
And you, sir?
I'll take you to Sangam.
Is this your first visit to Sangam?
Yes.
And you?
Second time.
Someone once said you must visit Sangam twice in a lifetime.
Why?
Alone the first time, and with someone the second time around...
