Ticket. Ticket.

2
00:00:32,130 --> 00:00:33,660
Bibipur. Bibipur.

3
00:00:34,710 --> 00:00:37,720
Keep moving towards the gate.

4
00:00:37,860 --> 00:00:39,630
Keep your leg inside, uncle.

5
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,340
Bones don't mend easily at your age.

6
00:00:45,060 --> 00:00:46,910
Ticket. Ticket.

7
00:00:47,530 --> 00:00:49,490
Ticket. Ticket.

8
00:00:51,500 --> 00:00:53,650
Conductor, how much longer to Phulera?

9
00:00:53,980 --> 00:00:55,370
Ticket. Ticket.

10
00:00:55,780 --> 00:00:57,320
Don't scratch the seats.

11
00:00:58,240 --> 00:00:59,760
Keep moving. Keep moving.

12
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:07,790
Ticket. Ticket.

13
00:01:09,210 --> 00:01:11,490
Conductor, how much longer to Phulera?

14
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,160
You're asking for the 18th time.

15
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,900
I'll let you know when we get there.
We won't abduct you.

16
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,440
Ticket. Ticket.

17
00:01:36,180 --> 00:01:37,690
If you have a problem with this job..

18
00:01:37,770 --> 00:01:39,180
..then why apply for
it in the first place?

19
00:01:39,260 --> 00:01:40,600
What other choice did I have?

20
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:42,510
You know the reality
of my college placement.

21
00:01:43,460 --> 00:01:46,760
I thought I'll apply for it just
to be safe. The job seemed easy to crack.

22
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,050
I'll have a job to show
during my graduation year.

23
00:01:49,550 --> 00:01:51,610
Unfortunately, that's all I have now.

24
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,950
Anyway, something is better than nothing.

25
00:01:55,350 --> 00:01:57,310
Something should be something good.

26
00:01:58,430 --> 00:02:02,410
Look, frankly speaking,
it doesn't sound too bad to me.

27
00:02:03,390 --> 00:02:04,950
20,000 salary.

28
00:02:05,030 --> 00:02:07,190
I've been posted in
some village called Phulera.

29
00:02:07,650 --> 00:02:09,480
Which part do you like?

30
00:02:10,850 --> 00:02:12,810
I should have worked hard in college.

31
00:02:13,150 --> 00:02:14,930
I could've gone to a better college..

32
00:02:15,670 --> 00:02:17,640
..and had a salary of 1.2 million rupees.

33
00:02:17,970 --> 00:02:20,020
1.2 million is my CTC.

34
00:02:20,100 --> 00:02:22,430
I'll get around 80,000 rupees a month.

35
00:02:23,340 --> 00:02:26,290
Do you realise that my salary
will be equal to the tax that you'll pay?

36
00:02:27,570 --> 00:02:30,420
You're only highlighting the negatives.
Focus on the positives as well.

37
00:02:30,500 --> 00:02:32,400
Imagine what an interesting
job profile you will have.

38
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:33,990
What interesting?

39
00:02:34,270 --> 00:02:36,290
It's an interesting job.

40
00:02:36,370 --> 00:02:38,740
You're going to be the Secretary
to the Village Panchayat.

41
00:02:38,820 --> 00:02:41,610
You'll be developing the
villages along with the Pradhan..

42
00:02:41,690 --> 00:02:43,250
..deputy Pradhan and other bodies.

43
00:02:43,330 --> 00:02:47,260
Imagine..you'll dig sewers,
install hand pumps, build roads.

44
00:02:47,860 --> 00:02:50,700
This is your chance to be
like 'Mohan Bhargav' of 'Swades'!

45
00:02:51,230 --> 00:02:53,230
And you want to quit your
chance of being the son of the soil..

46
00:02:53,310 --> 00:02:55,060
..and be part of this
corporate rat race like me.

47
00:02:55,140 --> 00:02:57,640
If you like my job so much,
then why don't you apply as well.

48
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:58,970
You apply too.

49
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:00,890
Don't be irritated

50
00:03:00,970 --> 00:03:02,230
College just got over.

51
00:03:02,310 --> 00:03:03,640
You have a government job in your pocket.

52
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,020
Don't give up before trying.

53
00:03:06,100 --> 00:03:08,470
Later you can think about what to do next.

54
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:10,740
This is the time.

55
00:03:10,820 --> 00:03:12,620
This is your chance.
Go for this adventure.

56
00:03:12,700 --> 00:03:14,310
Get a first-hand experience.
Rural India.

57
00:03:14,390 --> 00:03:15,600
The real India.

58
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,300
I want a simple life.
I don't any adventure.

59
00:03:18,380 --> 00:03:19,900
I don't want to see rural India.

60
00:03:25,780 --> 00:03:27,820
It's better than being jobless.

61
00:03:31,820 --> 00:03:34,260
Don't spoil your mood.
I'll get you a striped shirt.

62
00:03:34,810 --> 00:03:36,810
No, thank you.
That's all you ever buy for me.

63
00:03:37,730 --> 00:03:38,560
Come on.

64
00:03:40,490 --> 00:03:41,930
Phulera. Phulera.

65
00:03:42,940 --> 00:03:44,920
Wake up, mister.
We've arrived in Phulera.

66
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,660
All the time you kept
asking about Phulera.

67
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:57,060
Anything else.

68
00:03:57,780 --> 00:03:59,250
There's another luggage on top.

69
00:04:10,310 --> 00:04:12,740
Gram Panchayat
Phulera welcomes you.

70
00:06:23,950 --> 00:06:26,110
He said he'll be here in 20 minutes.

71
00:06:36,260 --> 00:06:37,570
Prahlad.

72
00:06:37,650 --> 00:06:40,510
He'll know that there were four
pieces of sweet and someone took one.

73
00:06:40,950 --> 00:06:42,190
How will he find out?

74
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,000
Guests are never served three pieces.

75
00:06:45,170 --> 00:06:47,330
They are either given four or two.

76
00:06:48,310 --> 00:06:49,290
Get lost.

77
00:07:15,300 --> 00:07:16,350
I guess that's him.

78
00:07:19,860 --> 00:07:20,910
It's him. It's him.

79
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:22,250
It's the Secretary.

80
00:07:42,140 --> 00:07:43,150
Hold this.

81
00:07:58,060 --> 00:07:59,040
Careful.

82
00:08:06,660 --> 00:08:07,960
Let me.

83
00:08:08,630 --> 00:08:09,440
Thank you.

84
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,210
This is my job, Abhishek sir.

85
00:08:11,900 --> 00:08:13,790
My name's Vikas.
Your office assistant.

86
00:08:13,870 --> 00:08:16,730
- So you're the one I spoke
with over the phone. - Yes.

87
00:08:17,450 --> 00:08:19,960
That's the Deputy Pradhan
of Phulera Panchayat.

88
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:21,230
Mr. Prahlad Pandey.

89
00:08:21,310 --> 00:08:23,330
I sent his picture to you on WhatsApp.

90
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,130
- Hello. Hello.
- Hello.

91
00:08:26,210 --> 00:08:28,140
I hope you had a pleasant journey.

92
00:08:28,580 --> 00:08:30,340
Yes, of course.

93
00:08:30,420 --> 00:08:32,270
- Keep the bag up.
- Yes..

94
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:35,690
Is this the office?

95
00:08:35,770 --> 00:08:37,370
This is our office.

96
00:08:37,710 --> 00:08:38,790
Consists of three rooms..

97
00:08:38,870 --> 00:08:40,200
..one of which belongs to the Pradhan.

98
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,530
The rest sit in the hall.

99
00:08:42,610 --> 00:08:45,530
And we've set you up in
the third room which was vacant.

100
00:08:45,610 --> 00:08:46,910
We've kept a pillow and mattress for you.

101
00:08:46,990 --> 00:08:48,600
All that needs to be
done is get this bed inside.

102
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,380
It's a large bed. You can check
yourself whether you fit in or not.

103
00:08:52,460 --> 00:08:53,520
Of course, I'll fit in.

104
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,060
There's no harm in trying.
I'll get it adjusted to your requirement.

105
00:08:56,140 --> 00:08:57,370
Yes..

106
00:08:57,450 --> 00:08:59,260
I'll definitely fit in.
Where's the key?

107
00:08:59,340 --> 00:09:01,530
The keys with the Pradhan.
He's on his way.

108
00:09:04,930 --> 00:09:05,970
On his way?

109
00:09:06,230 --> 00:09:07,680
Isn't the Pradhan a 'she'?

110
00:09:10,090 --> 00:09:11,620
The Pradhan's on his way?

111
00:09:12,220 --> 00:09:14,210
Manju Devi is a male?

112
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,640
No.
Pradhan Manju Devi is a female.

113
00:09:16,930 --> 00:09:18,330
She wears a sari.

114
00:09:18,900 --> 00:09:21,630
We're talking about Manju
Devi's husband Brij Bhushan Dubey.

115
00:09:22,030 --> 00:09:22,920
You didn't understand?

116
00:09:23,260 --> 00:09:27,070
In the previous elections, the
government reserved this seat for females.

117
00:09:27,150 --> 00:09:29,220
But Brij Bhushan is a wise man.

118
00:09:29,300 --> 00:09:32,000
He made his wife run
for elections and won as well.

119
00:09:32,740 --> 00:09:36,520
What we mean is Manju
Devi is the official Pradhan.

120
00:09:37,540 --> 00:09:39,660
And Brij Bhushan is her husband.

121
00:09:40,180 --> 00:09:42,950
He's the one who handles
everything around here.

122
00:09:43,030 --> 00:09:45,060
So we call him the Pradhan.

123
00:09:45,300 --> 00:09:46,160
Understand.

124
00:09:47,010 --> 00:09:47,970
There he comes.

125
00:09:48,050 --> 00:09:50,200
Hello, sir. Hello.

126
00:09:54,550 --> 00:09:56,030
Hello, Pradhan sir.

127
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,210
Hello. Hello.

128
00:09:58,290 --> 00:09:59,850
Are you Abhishek?

129
00:10:01,210 --> 00:10:02,850
- Yes.
- I see..

130
00:10:02,930 --> 00:10:04,370
Let me wash my hands first.

131
00:10:04,450 --> 00:10:05,830
Vikas, help me out here.

132
00:10:13,530 --> 00:10:15,130
I went towards the fields.

133
00:10:16,500 --> 00:10:17,810
To check on the work.

134
00:10:18,110 --> 00:10:20,240
And then I thought why don't
I get done with this as well.

135
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:21,430
And I did.

136
00:10:22,250 --> 00:10:24,600
Don't be mistaken that
I don't have a bathroom.

137
00:10:24,680 --> 00:10:26,210
I have two bathrooms in my home.

138
00:10:26,290 --> 00:10:27,850
But you see..

139
00:10:28,150 --> 00:10:30,850
I always head out towards the fields,
it's good for exercise..

140
00:10:30,930 --> 00:10:32,760
..and good for digestion as well.

141
00:10:33,090 --> 00:10:35,320
Have you ever been..to the fields.

142
00:10:35,730 --> 00:10:37,070
No, I..

143
00:10:37,450 --> 00:10:39,280
I've never been to a village before.

144
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:43,160
Since you haven't,
then I'll take you someday for a stroll.

145
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:43,970
Sir..

146
00:10:44,050 --> 00:10:45,770
You should take him every day.

147
00:10:45,850 --> 00:10:47,680
I will take him every day.

148
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:48,900
I won't give up on him so easily.

149
00:10:48,980 --> 00:10:51,960
Now that he's here,
we'll take full advantage.

150
00:10:52,810 --> 00:10:54,470
And I'll take you along as well.

151
00:10:54,550 --> 00:10:57,730
You've piled on so much weight.

152
00:10:57,810 --> 00:10:59,220
Now shake hands.

153
00:11:00,430 --> 00:11:01,120
Come on.

154
00:11:02,130 --> 00:11:03,130
What is this?

155
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,220
You had only two?

156
00:11:08,150 --> 00:11:09,600
Don't you like sweets?

157
00:11:09,830 --> 00:11:10,510
What?

158
00:11:10,590 --> 00:11:12,180
I just love them.

159
00:11:12,380 --> 00:11:13,850
I don't smoke.

160
00:11:13,930 --> 00:11:16,400
So whenever I feel the urge,
I just pop one.

161
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,810
Sir, the keys, please.
So we can keep his luggage inside.

162
00:11:19,890 --> 00:11:20,700
Oh yes, the keys.

163
00:11:20,780 --> 00:11:22,390
Take the keys.

164
00:11:23,790 --> 00:11:26,460
I said get the keys, not keep
the jug in my pocket. Keep the jug down.

165
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,160
Where is it? It's not in here.

166
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:31,620
Then it must be in the other pocket.
Check here.

167
00:11:36,850 --> 00:11:37,760
Mobile..

168
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,920
Don't keep it there.

169
00:11:42,410 --> 00:11:44,040
No, it's not in here either.

170
00:11:44,910 --> 00:11:45,640
Hold this.

171
00:11:48,620 --> 00:11:49,750
Where is the key?

172
00:11:51,130 --> 00:11:52,320
Check at the hand pump.

173
00:11:52,510 --> 00:11:53,250
Run.

174
00:11:58,340 --> 00:11:59,930
It's not at the hand pump either.

175
00:12:00,550 --> 00:12:02,080
Did you drop it?

176
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:18,620
That bloody Prahlad doesn't
want to walk an inch.

177
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,900
You must have dropped it in the fields.

178
00:12:21,980 --> 00:12:23,130
Which field was it?

179
00:12:23,210 --> 00:12:26,100
It was one of your fields, across.

180
00:12:26,180 --> 00:12:27,510
Then that's where you must have dropped.

181
00:12:32,210 --> 00:12:34,390
Everyone keep your eyes peeled.

182
00:12:34,740 --> 00:12:36,330
I must have dropped
it somewhere on the way.

183
00:12:36,410 --> 00:12:37,360
Yes, sir.

184
00:12:40,220 --> 00:12:42,450
Such big holes..

185
00:12:43,030 --> 00:12:44,220
What if I dropped it in one of the holes?

186
00:12:44,300 --> 00:12:45,630
Then again, not possible.

187
00:12:46,510 --> 00:12:47,700
Mr. Secretary.

188
00:12:48,510 --> 00:12:50,790
That field that you see..

189
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,340
That belongs to me as well.

190
00:12:53,730 --> 00:12:54,840
There.

191
00:12:56,390 --> 00:12:59,410
Come, I'll show you more.

192
00:13:00,780 --> 00:13:02,360
I took a diversion from here.

193
00:13:05,420 --> 00:13:08,040
This field belonged to Vikas's uncle.

194
00:13:08,460 --> 00:13:09,360
Yes..

195
00:13:10,660 --> 00:13:13,540
The poor guy sold this
field for his daughter's wedding.

196
00:13:16,900 --> 00:13:18,430
And I bought it.

197
00:13:22,710 --> 00:13:24,290
How much further, sir?

198
00:13:24,370 --> 00:13:26,800
We're almost there.
Its close-by.

199
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:31,760
Mr. Secretary. That field
that you see belongs to me as well.

200
00:13:32,780 --> 00:13:35,310
Careful of the water jet.

201
00:13:35,460 --> 00:13:37,720
It can make you deaf.

202
00:13:37,980 --> 00:13:40,910
Poor Deen Dayal lost his hearing
due to an accident with the water jet.

203
00:13:41,370 --> 00:13:43,980
But he still has one ear intact.
He can hear from that.

204
00:13:46,050 --> 00:13:47,650
And whose field is this?

205
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:50,850
Why?

206
00:13:53,650 --> 00:13:54,800
Just asked.

207
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,320
Even the court couldn't decide that.
How can I?

208
00:13:58,730 --> 00:14:00,370
Belongs to two brothers.

209
00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:02,510
They have a dispute over this land.

210
00:14:02,780 --> 00:14:05,120
There's been enough
bloodshed between the two.

211
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,110
And one of them suffered a broken skull.

212
00:14:07,190 --> 00:14:08,520
He had to get 19 stitches.

213
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,310
Thank God we got him
to the hospital in time..

214
00:14:10,390 --> 00:14:12,180
..otherwise this field would've
gone to his brother automatically.

215
00:14:12,730 --> 00:14:13,570
Come on.

216
00:14:14,230 --> 00:14:16,880
And don't get into property disputes.

217
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,630
Just look for the key.

218
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,810
Because if we don't get
the Panchayat office open..

219
00:14:21,890 --> 00:14:25,010
..then you can get in big trouble,
and so will I.

220
00:14:25,470 --> 00:14:26,950
Walk faster.

221
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,310
A poisonous snake was spotted here.

222
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:31,860
Mr. Secretary.

223
00:14:32,450 --> 00:14:35,440
These waterholes that you see..

224
00:14:35,890 --> 00:14:39,380
..was built by the Panchayat office.

225
00:14:40,450 --> 00:14:44,540
We'll use this to our advantage
in the next elections.

226
00:14:44,620 --> 00:14:46,560
- We'll raise this matter.
- Yes, come on.

227
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,420
How much further, sir?

228
00:14:48,500 --> 00:14:51,180
Keep walking. We're almost there.

229
00:14:53,370 --> 00:14:55,970
Why is he looking around the entire field?

230
00:14:56,110 --> 00:14:58,150
He must have sat at multiple spots.

231
00:15:02,220 --> 00:15:05,680
You see, sir, when you sit in one place..

232
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,490
- ..slowly it starts piling up..
- Stop. Stop.

233
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,470
Did you find it?

234
00:15:11,550 --> 00:15:13,300
Not yet.

235
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,890
Must be here..somewhere.

236
00:15:26,490 --> 00:15:27,290
Did you lose it?

237
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,220
What else do you expect
when you tie it to your waist.

238
00:15:33,980 --> 00:15:34,830
Get up.

239
00:15:35,420 --> 00:15:36,200
I said get up.

240
00:15:36,450 --> 00:15:38,290
And go sit there.

241
00:15:38,370 --> 00:15:39,570
I am out of breath.

242
00:15:39,650 --> 00:15:41,830
I went looking for the
key and you're out of breath.

243
00:15:42,780 --> 00:15:44,610
Out of breath even
when you're lying around.

244
00:15:46,770 --> 00:15:47,620
Vikas.

245
00:15:48,140 --> 00:15:52,960
Run to the market, and get the locksmith.

246
00:15:54,150 --> 00:15:57,000
But how can I run 15 kilometres?

247
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,510
Take the Secretary's motorcycle.

248
00:15:58,730 --> 00:15:59,780
Give me the keys.

249
00:16:00,870 --> 00:16:02,120
Give him the keys.

250
00:16:06,530 --> 00:16:07,470
How long will it take?

251
00:16:07,550 --> 00:16:09,450
Normally it takes an hour.

252
00:16:09,780 --> 00:16:13,350
The locksmiths normally
rest in the afternoon.

253
00:16:13,430 --> 00:16:16,320
So it can take more than an hour.

254
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:20,850
Let's just break the lock, sir.

255
00:16:21,620 --> 00:16:22,270
What?

256
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:24,840
No, we can't break the lock.

257
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:25,640
Why?

258
00:16:26,570 --> 00:16:30,420
The lock belongs to his wife Manju Devi.

259
00:16:30,500 --> 00:16:32,030
She got it from her parents.

260
00:16:32,450 --> 00:16:33,870
If we break it..

261
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,260
No, we can't break it.

262
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,760
We'll get a new one.
That's not a problem.

263
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,560
Try to understand my problem.
We cannot break it.

264
00:16:42,260 --> 00:16:44,120
Give me the keys.

265
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,590
Give him the keys.

266
00:16:52,570 --> 00:16:54,650
And hurry up.. hurry up.

267
00:16:57,500 --> 00:16:58,860
Do you know how to ride?

268
00:16:59,250 --> 00:17:00,680
What about the gears?

269
00:17:01,100 --> 00:17:03,200
- Backwards.
- Backwards, okay.

270
00:17:03,620 --> 00:17:05,090
Hail to the Lord.

271
00:17:15,370 --> 00:17:16,540
And hurry up!

272
00:17:18,170 --> 00:17:19,090
Careful.

273
00:17:30,060 --> 00:17:32,510
He'll be back soon. Don't be upset.

274
00:17:32,670 --> 00:17:34,120
I am not upset.

275
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:35,880
Yes, you are.

276
00:17:37,210 --> 00:17:39,630
Until Vikas comes back,
you can take a look around the village.

277
00:17:39,890 --> 00:17:41,920
It's a wonderful village..
beautiful scenery.

278
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:43,130
There's a well.

279
00:17:43,210 --> 00:17:44,760
And beautiful homes.

280
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,150
Patwari just built a new home.

281
00:17:48,790 --> 00:17:50,340
See that water tank.

282
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,650
The view of the village
from up there is so breathtaking..

283
00:17:52,730 --> 00:17:54,590
..that you will fall
in love with the place.

284
00:17:54,810 --> 00:17:56,340
I swear.
Do you want to try?

285
00:17:57,070 --> 00:17:57,680
Do you?

286
00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:58,770
Right now.

287
00:18:10,410 --> 00:18:11,450
Hello.

288
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:13,920
Yeah.

289
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,200
Who told you that the key's gone missing?

290
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:22,010
Hello.

291
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:24,700
Prahlad.

292
00:18:26,120 --> 00:18:27,560
Let's go home for a cup of tea.

293
00:18:27,790 --> 00:18:31,060
Spare me. I'll go have a
peaceful cup of tea at my own home.

294
00:18:44,140 --> 00:18:47,400
How many times have I said keep
the key tied to your waist.

295
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:48,940
Tied to your waist.

296
00:18:49,020 --> 00:18:49,900
But no..

297
00:18:50,100 --> 00:18:51,570
You like to show off.

298
00:18:51,650 --> 00:18:53,280
You have to keep the key in your pocket.

299
00:18:53,770 --> 00:18:54,990
Serves you right.

300
00:18:59,110 --> 00:19:01,500
I've sent Vikas to get the locksmith.

301
00:19:01,700 --> 00:19:03,250
We won't have to break the lock.

302
00:19:03,330 --> 00:19:05,560
And I won't let you either.

303
00:19:13,870 --> 00:19:15,110
Listen..

304
00:19:15,780 --> 00:19:19,370
I was thinking about inviting
the Secretary over for dinner.

305
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,170
Yes, of course.

306
00:19:23,820 --> 00:19:27,520
Call the Secretary,
then Prahlad, and Vikas.

307
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,240
Also a dozen other
guys you meet on the way.

308
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:31,360
Let's throw a feast.

309
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:32,970
Don't overreact.

310
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,620
This way you can meet him as well.

311
00:19:35,820 --> 00:19:37,630
What's the point of meeting him?

312
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:40,500
You're the Pradhan of this village.

313
00:19:40,580 --> 00:19:41,940
Why do you keep forgetting it?

314
00:19:42,020 --> 00:19:43,670
I am not the Pradhan.

315
00:19:48,740 --> 00:19:50,820
Poor guy must be hungry.
He hasn't eaten a morsel since morning..

316
00:19:50,900 --> 00:19:52,250
..except for two pieces of sweet.

317
00:19:53,120 --> 00:19:54,580
Why should I care if
he hasn't eaten since morning?

318
00:19:54,940 --> 00:19:56,490
I am not responsible for him.

319
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,160
Or to feed him.

320
00:20:32,220 --> 00:20:33,500
Is there a shop nearby..

321
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,760
..where I can buy biscuits or something?

322
00:20:37,120 --> 00:20:38,460
Where are you from?

323
00:20:38,540 --> 00:20:40,130
The Panchayat. I am the new Secretary.

324
00:20:40,620 --> 00:20:42,200
Follow this lane.

325
00:20:42,370 --> 00:20:43,440
- This way.
- Yes.

326
00:20:44,740 --> 00:20:46,470
- How far?
- Not too far.

327
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,120
Uncle, I don't sell oil separately.

328
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,010
You'll have to buy a bottle at least.

329
00:20:53,090 --> 00:20:56,140
But I don't have the money
to pay for an entire bottle.

330
00:20:56,220 --> 00:20:59,060
Then bring me some paddy
and take oil in exchange.

331
00:21:00,180 --> 00:21:02,010
I don't have any paddy either.

332
00:21:02,340 --> 00:21:03,510
One cream biscuit.

333
00:21:06,220 --> 00:21:07,810
Where are you from?

334
00:21:08,120 --> 00:21:09,750
I am the new Panchayat Secretary

335
00:21:11,270 --> 00:21:14,520
Sir, are you the new Panchayat Secretary?

336
00:21:15,070 --> 00:21:15,750
Yes..

337
00:21:17,420 --> 00:21:20,730
The Panchayat owes me 525 rupees.

338
00:21:21,260 --> 00:21:25,740
The Pradhan said that the new
Secretary will clear all the dues, so..

339
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:28,160
Money for what?

340
00:21:28,450 --> 00:21:31,630
For building irrigation
canals under the MGNREGA Act.

341
00:21:32,420 --> 00:21:36,010
From Mahender's fields to Nagina's fields.

342
00:21:36,470 --> 00:21:38,620
And I worked as labour
for three days, sir.

343
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:41,400
The office is closed right now.
Come see me when once the office is open.

344
00:21:41,870 --> 00:21:43,130
Sir..

345
00:21:44,790 --> 00:21:46,620
There's no cooking oil in my home.

346
00:21:47,140 --> 00:21:48,530
And no money either.

347
00:21:49,850 --> 00:21:52,630
For the past four days,
we've been cooking food without oil.

348
00:21:52,710 --> 00:21:55,460
Uncle, what's the point of buying oil?

349
00:21:55,650 --> 00:21:57,750
The rich are cutting
down their oil intake..

350
00:21:57,830 --> 00:21:59,000
..and you want oil.

351
00:21:59,080 --> 00:21:59,610
Return the change.

352
00:21:59,690 --> 00:22:03,470
I can manage, but..the children don't.

353
00:22:04,550 --> 00:22:05,850
I am a poor man.

354
00:22:06,650 --> 00:22:07,590
Help me.

355
00:22:08,260 --> 00:22:10,330
As I said come see me tomorrow
when the office is open.

356
00:22:11,540 --> 00:22:12,540
Careful.

357
00:22:35,850 --> 00:22:36,920
Where's the locksmith?

358
00:22:39,070 --> 00:22:40,410
And how did the indicator break?

359
00:22:41,650 --> 00:22:42,430
Huh?

360
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:44,740
Sir..what should I tell you first?

361
00:22:44,820 --> 00:22:46,840
The locksmith or how
did I break the indicator?

362
00:22:50,580 --> 00:22:51,700
Where's the locksmith?

363
00:22:51,970 --> 00:22:55,130
I was bringing the locksmith
with me when suddenly his phone rang.

364
00:22:55,210 --> 00:22:56,810
His wife was expecting..

365
00:22:56,890 --> 00:22:59,450
..and she was experiencing labour pains.

366
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,160
On humanitarian grounds,
I had to turn the motorcycle around.

367
00:23:02,370 --> 00:23:05,170
Since it was an emergency I was speeding.

368
00:23:05,410 --> 00:23:08,520
But suddenly a buffalo
came out of nowhere.

369
00:23:08,730 --> 00:23:11,270
By the time I braked
it was already too late.

370
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:16,310
I survived, but the locksmith and his
wife were admitted to the same hospital.

371
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,880
Abhishek sir, don't worry.
I'll think of something.

372
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,750
First of all, my name's Abhishek.

373
00:23:22,830 --> 00:23:24,980
And not Abhisek..

374
00:23:27,110 --> 00:23:28,860
And there's nothing left to do.
Let's break this lock.

375
00:23:30,180 --> 00:23:31,280
Abhisek sir.

376
00:23:31,780 --> 00:23:32,810
That's Abhishek.

377
00:23:32,950 --> 00:23:33,860
Yes.

378
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,440
Abhishek sir, we cannot break the lock.

379
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:38,670
Call the Pradhan.
We'll have to break the lock.

380
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,470
Call Pradhan sir.
We'll have to break the lock.

381
00:23:44,550 --> 00:23:45,720
Bring a hammer or something.

382
00:23:49,970 --> 00:23:51,650
Pradhan sir, hello.

383
00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:54,710
I was bringing the locksmith
with me when suddenly his phone rang.

384
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,160
Come to the point.
Come straight to the point.

385
00:24:00,090 --> 00:24:01,860
The locksmith won't come
for at least a couple of days.

386
00:24:01,940 --> 00:24:03,410
We'll have to break the lock.

387
00:24:03,490 --> 00:24:05,720
You can't break the lock, come what may.

388
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,900
If we don't break the lock,
then the office will stay closed.

389
00:24:08,980 --> 00:24:10,330
Then let it stay closed.

390
00:24:10,410 --> 00:24:13,020
And anyway, there's not much
work that gets done around there.

391
00:24:13,100 --> 00:24:16,120
You're right, but where will
the Secretary stay till that time.

392
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:17,930
I don't care where he stays.

393
00:24:18,010 --> 00:24:19,630
Let him stay in our home then.

394
00:24:20,870 --> 00:24:22,240
We have a daughter.

395
00:24:22,590 --> 00:24:24,690
And you'll let a stranger
stay in the house.

396
00:24:24,770 --> 00:24:27,520
He's not a stranger.
He's the Secretary.

397
00:24:27,670 --> 00:24:30,030
And the best thing is he's from our caste.

398
00:24:30,110 --> 00:24:32,050
Then let's get our
daughter married to him.

399
00:24:32,540 --> 00:24:34,730
No, his salary is too low.

400
00:24:38,120 --> 00:24:39,500
- Pathetic.
- What happened?

401
00:24:39,770 --> 00:24:41,550
You zip off like a rocket.

402
00:24:41,630 --> 00:24:42,580
Look..

403
00:24:42,780 --> 00:24:46,380
I lost the key.

404
00:24:46,460 --> 00:24:48,970
So I'll have to arrange
a place for him to stay.

405
00:24:49,180 --> 00:24:51,780
We won't let him come
face-to-face with Rinki.

406
00:24:51,860 --> 00:24:53,280
We'll give him a spare pillow..

407
00:24:53,360 --> 00:24:55,040
..and he can lie out
here in the courtyard.

408
00:25:01,210 --> 00:25:04,470
28-years-ago when you
came to my house first..

409
00:25:04,550 --> 00:25:06,860
..even you slept
outside in the courtyard.

410
00:25:09,140 --> 00:25:10,220
He cannot stay here.

411
00:25:10,510 --> 00:25:11,790
You can break the lock.

412
00:25:13,420 --> 00:25:15,920
And invite him to dinner.
I'll make one dish for him.

413
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:17,670
Don't expect me to cook a feast.

414
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,040
[Indistinct chatter]

415
00:25:33,300 --> 00:25:34,880
Where's the Pradhan's home?

416
00:25:36,110 --> 00:25:37,740
I am the new Panchayat Secretary.

417
00:25:37,820 --> 00:25:39,720
I see..
Take the next left.

418
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,220
Pradhan sir.

419
00:25:49,740 --> 00:25:51,110
Pradhan sir.

420
00:25:55,810 --> 00:25:58,740
Welcome. Welcome.

421
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,380
Are you going to keep
your motorcycle outside?

422
00:26:01,460 --> 00:26:03,170
- Yes.
- Did you take the keys out?

423
00:26:03,250 --> 00:26:04,290
It's okay, come.

424
00:26:05,090 --> 00:26:06,870
Is Vikas breaking the lock?

425
00:26:06,950 --> 00:26:08,890
- Yes, he is.
- That's great.

426
00:26:10,770 --> 00:26:11,560
Come.

427
00:26:17,710 --> 00:26:19,250
Those are mine.
Do you want to take a look?

428
00:26:19,330 --> 00:26:20,360
- No.
- Come on.

429
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,500
I already saw the fields today.

430
00:26:22,580 --> 00:26:23,340
Let's go then.

431
00:26:25,740 --> 00:26:27,160
Listen..

432
00:26:27,420 --> 00:26:29,470
The situation inside is pretty delicate.

433
00:26:29,550 --> 00:26:31,280
So think before you say anything.
Okay.

434
00:26:32,150 --> 00:26:34,330
You know what, best not say anything.

435
00:26:34,410 --> 00:26:35,160
Come on.

436
00:26:52,830 --> 00:26:54,290
The food's really delicious, sir.

437
00:26:56,770 --> 00:26:58,880
The Secretary is saying
that the food is delicious.

438
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,120
I've been making it for the last 35 years.

439
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:02,580
What else did you expect?

440
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:16,410
No, thank you. I am done.

441
00:27:17,170 --> 00:27:18,820
You just said that the food is delicious.

442
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:21,540
Give me one.

443
00:27:23,810 --> 00:27:26,280
One for this poor soul as well.

444
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,700
One doesn't mean just one.

445
00:27:36,420 --> 00:27:36,990
Mom, is the dinner ready?

446
00:27:37,740 --> 00:27:38,610
Stay up there.

447
00:27:38,900 --> 00:27:40,320
I'll bring your dinner to your room.

448
00:27:54,350 --> 00:27:55,180
Hello.

449
00:27:55,970 --> 00:27:56,870
Vikas.

450
00:27:57,650 --> 00:27:58,380
What?

451
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:00,420
It's broken.

452
00:28:00,910 --> 00:28:01,690
It's broken?

453
00:28:02,210 --> 00:28:03,050
It's broken.

454
00:28:09,870 --> 00:28:11,350
It's broken!

455
00:28:12,980 --> 00:28:14,820
Who told you to break the door?

456
00:28:14,900 --> 00:28:16,280
I was breaking the lock.

457
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:17,060
Then?

458
00:28:18,050 --> 00:28:20,060
The lock turned out to
be sturdier than the door.

459
00:28:21,650 --> 00:28:22,320
Come on.

460
00:28:24,740 --> 00:28:25,900
Let's go, come on.

461
00:28:29,820 --> 00:28:31,510
Seems like you rammed it with a bulldozer.

462
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:34,720
Come in.

463
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:38,280
Take a look.

464
00:28:38,820 --> 00:28:39,670
Is it nice?

465
00:28:44,460 --> 00:28:45,290
We'll fix it up.

466
00:29:58,350 --> 00:29:59,310
Is everything okay?

467
00:30:00,020 --> 00:30:02,130
Don't worry,
I'll get the door fixed tomorrow.

468
00:30:02,210 --> 00:30:02,920
Okay.

469
00:30:04,010 --> 00:30:05,820
I'll fix up your bed.

470
00:30:07,330 --> 00:30:08,910
It doesn't matter now.

471
00:30:09,100 --> 00:30:10,440
I'll see you then.

472
00:30:10,810 --> 00:30:12,540
And you see after I go out..

473
00:30:12,620 --> 00:30:15,910
..you can prop up the door with this,
using this hammer.

474
00:30:16,310 --> 00:30:18,310
So it doesn't fall down
when it's too windy. Here you go.

475
00:30:18,950 --> 00:30:21,100
Prop up the door and
get a good night sleep.

476
00:30:21,180 --> 00:30:21,970
Let's go.

477
00:31:03,860 --> 00:31:06,690
No. Taking a metro to
CP is very uncomfortable.

478
00:31:06,770 --> 00:31:08,080
Let's take a cab instead.

479
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,580
Hey, Mohan Bhargav.
How is Swades?

480
00:31:11,660 --> 00:31:12,880
Did you join?

481
00:31:14,230 --> 00:31:15,190
Hello.

482
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:16,200
Abhishek.

483
00:31:16,500 --> 00:31:18,120
I want out of here.

484
00:31:20,050 --> 00:31:21,990
What's wrong? Are you okay?

485
00:31:23,350 --> 00:31:24,990
I can't stay here.

486
00:31:26,060 --> 00:31:27,370
Are you resigning?

487
00:31:27,450 --> 00:31:28,520
I don't know.

488
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,120
I can't just quit and sit at home.
I don't know what to do.

489
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,000
I know you're looking
for a high profile job..

490
00:31:35,390 --> 00:31:36,880
..and now you have only one option.

491
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:39,270
You'll have to clear CAT.

492
00:31:39,350 --> 00:31:41,390
There's no way I can clear CAT.

493
00:31:42,090 --> 00:31:43,260
And why not?

494
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,430
My father never stops saying
that you're a sharper mind compared to me.

495
00:31:46,510 --> 00:31:48,130
You're just afraid of hard work.

496
00:31:49,820 --> 00:31:50,960
What should I do?

497
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:52,980
Quit my job and start preparing?

498
00:31:53,060 --> 00:31:54,620
No, why will you quit?

499
00:31:54,940 --> 00:31:56,850
Work experience comes pretty handy in MBA.

500
00:31:57,220 --> 00:31:59,390
What's the point of this work experience?

501
00:32:00,820 --> 00:32:03,100
By the way, I just realized..

502
00:32:03,940 --> 00:32:08,650
..you as the Panchayat Secretary will be
handling the entire village body, right?

503
00:32:09,940 --> 00:32:10,830
Yes, so?

504
00:32:10,910 --> 00:32:14,640
So in IIM interviews they always
look for candidates from diverse fields.

505
00:32:15,290 --> 00:32:19,930
Imagine you'll be the guy whose
seen real India at the grass-root level.

506
00:32:20,010 --> 00:32:22,380
Why do you keep ranting about real India?

507
00:32:22,670 --> 00:32:23,580
There is no real India.

508
00:32:24,100 --> 00:32:25,760
The village is filled with idiots.

509
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,090
Its a village of idiots actually.

510
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:32,320
Trust me..this job experience will
definitely help you in your IIM interview.

511
00:32:34,380 --> 00:32:35,950
Tell me practically..

512
00:32:36,490 --> 00:32:38,350
..how long does it
take to prepare for CAT.

513
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,660
That depends on how desperately
you want to get out of there.

514
00:32:42,990 --> 00:32:44,170
Extremely.

515
00:32:44,510 --> 00:32:46,030
Then you have only one option.

516
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:47,970
Every day after office..

517
00:32:48,610 --> 00:32:51,870
..you'll have to dedicate
at least 4 hours for preparations.

518
00:32:52,730 --> 00:32:54,240
Do me a favour.

519
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,370
Mail me the CAT material.

520
00:32:57,610 --> 00:32:58,700
Yes, definitely.

521
00:32:58,780 --> 00:32:59,950
I'll send you the best books.

522
00:33:00,030 --> 00:33:01,210
Just give me your address.

523
00:33:01,830 --> 00:33:02,520
Note it down.

524
00:33:03,820 --> 00:33:04,960
Abhishek Tripathi.

525
00:33:06,210 --> 00:33:07,510
Panchayat office.

526
00:33:08,340 --> 00:33:10,070
Gram+Post; Phulera.

527
00:33:10,260 --> 00:33:11,460
V. Kh. Fakauli

528
00:33:11,540 --> 00:33:13,000
What?

529
00:33:13,220 --> 00:33:15,240
- Vikas Khand.
- What?

530
00:33:15,500 --> 00:33:17,790
Just write whatever I am saying.

531
00:33:17,870 --> 00:33:18,820
Okay.

532
00:33:19,020 --> 00:33:21,610
V. Kh. Fakauli

533
00:33:22,100 --> 00:33:23,620
Sounds a little naughty.

534
00:33:23,700 --> 00:33:24,360
Next?

535
00:33:24,490 --> 00:33:27,190
District Baliya, Uttar Pradesh.

536
00:33:27,340 --> 00:33:32,860
District Baliya, Uttar Pradesh.
Noted.

537
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,860
Send it tomorrow,
it will take a couple of days to get here.

538
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,450
I'll have to find out how it gets here.

539
00:33:38,510 --> 00:33:40,420
Fine, I'll send you the best books.

540
00:33:40,550 --> 00:33:41,340
Thanks, man.

541
00:33:41,390 --> 00:33:43,020
Enough of the formality.

542
00:33:43,170 --> 00:33:47,980
Remember you study every
night for at least 3-4 hours.

543
00:33:50,420 --> 00:33:51,260
Shit.

544
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:52,160
What happened?

545
00:33:54,620 --> 00:33:55,950
Nothing. Power cut.

546
00:33:56,070 --> 00:33:57,520
Does it happen every night?

547
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,500
Yes, every night for four hours.
