All language subtitles for Television (2022)_track3_[eng]

Here comes your Television.

Congratulations, Sardarni.

By God's grace, you have
got a trolley full of dowry.

Now, now,

don't jinx it while congratulating me.

I must congratulate
you for the Television.

Yes, with God's grace, I will
celebrate getting a Television.

May God bless them with
happiness and prosperity,

the ones who gave and
the ones who received.

With God's grace, my Buta's
wedding went beautifully.

Hold on. Where did it go?

Here you go. Be happy.

You should have kept this too.

Keep it. Aunt has a very generous heart.

And it's not like Aunt will
take this money with her.

-Greetings, Aunt.
-Greetings, Son.

I had heard that one can see
people talking in Television.

But this one has jumped right out of it.

No, no, mom. This is my brother Sukhi.

Son, why are you sitting
there hugging the Television?

Come down. Come and have some tea.

These boys will carry the Television down.

-Come, my Son.
-Come.

Come along, guys. Be careful.

-Give this to her.
-Be careful. Don't drop it.

Handle it carefully.
Place it in the gallery.

Come on now.
Why are you taking so long?

I am surprised that Buta got a bride and

even a Television along with her.

But why are you surprised?

He is surprised because Buta
got a Television along with his wife,

but no one gave him a woman.

You're right.

No, I am surprised, my friends,

because I have heard
so much about Televisions.

Yes.

But I have never seen one.

What do you think it runs on, by the way?

It must run on diesel.

Do you suppose it runs on water?

My friends, then it must
be producing a lot of smoke.

It doesn't produce smoke,
you peasants. It runs on petrol.

-It runs on petrol.
-Just play your cards.

What it runs on and what it doesn't,
we will go to Buta's house and see.

Alright, mom. I am leaving.

I am leaving.

He doesn't refuse anything we ask him
to do. And he doesn't do any work either.

Come, help me chop this.

Look, dad remembered to chop now.

Dad, go ahead and finish it.
I am a man, not an engine.

Your expenses are more than an
engine and you work less than a human.

When I was your age,

I used to stuff the
fodder myself, grind it, chop it myself,

and also remove the hay.

Is that so? I don't believe you.
Do it and show me.

What will I get by convincing you?

Be a man and chop it now.

Please, listen to me.
A man has other work too.

Are you a DC that you
have so much work to do?

A man has work.

Be my dad and let me go.

Let the boy go.
Why have you held the kid back?

Will you chop the fodder then?

Yes, I will do it.

You go, son. Go right ahead.

Go.

The DC is leaving.

Come now. Stuff the fodder.

This is the limit.

You just said that you used
to stuff the fodder yourself

and chop it too.
Come on, be an engine now.

Aunt!

Will you turn it on or will you
send us away just like this?

Hey! Why are you sitting so close to it?
Do you want to enter it?

Sit at a distance. You fools
don't even know how to sit.

Yes? How are you comparing
yourself to the Television?

This kind of a possession
should be respected. Sit down.

Look, he is turning it on.

Here you go.

"Washing powder Nirma!"

"It makes clothes whiter than milk."

It's working!

"The coloured clothes become clean too.
Nirma is the best."

"Washing powder Nirma!"

"Eat Gagan. Stay delighted."

Wow.

"Fry in Gagan. Cook in Gagan."

So? Do you like it?

-Look, what they're doing, mom.
-Look, brother.

Hey, look there!

-Where is it?
-Over there. You will see it.

It's been an hour since we have
been standing here. I can't see it.

You will see it. Wait for some time.

When will I see it?

Look there! It's come again.

Why are you staring there like that?

Brother, we are watching Television.

Is the Television on the clouds?

No, look over there. It's right there.

Pal, look at these illiterates.

Will you be able to watch
Television by standing here?

Yes. Sit down and watch.

Look, Dharmendar has come out!

Look, he is dangling on the wire.

Where is he? I can't see him.

You will see him.
Just remain a little patient.

You can even keep ice.

You won't be able to
see anything from here.

This antenna just takes pictures.

Come inside. I'll show you the Television.

-Nonsense.
-He has kept me standing here since so long.

-Come along.
-Come, brother. Let's go.

"The strong picture of strong India."

Pull it...

Come on.

Come along.

"Our Bajaj."

Come on sit there.

Go sit there.

Move aside, please.

Be silent.

Sit down, guys.
Why are you jumping around?

"Our Bajaj."

'Greetings. I am your
very own Aarti Sahni.'

'I have your favourite
movie clips for you.'

'Today we will watch a clip
from the movie, 'I won't let you live.'

'Which was directed and
produced by Raj Kumar Kohli.'

'Dharmendar, Anita Raj, Shatrugan Sinha
and Raj Babbar are playing the main leads'

'and the music has been
produced by Laxmikant Pyarelal.'

'So let's watch.'

'He is following me to rob me.'

'Have you seen how
courageous these men are?'

'You will find men just like
these wherever you go.'

Bravo, all of you.

Has your blood turned to water?

What happened to your dignity?

They are molesting the girl and
you are laughing here?

-Come on, let's go!
-Just sit down, man.

Oh, they won't do anything.

I will have to handle this myself.

Stop him! Stop! He has gone mad!

-Have you lost your mind?
-Stop it!

He will break the Television!

-Get lost from here!
-But, Aunt...

-Let's go, everyone.
-Get out, all of you!

-Go away.
-Let's go.

-Run, all of you!
-Let's go home, everyone.

This scoundrel was going
to break our Television.

Who was that girl in the orange dress?

The one in blue scarf.

Alright.

She is the relative of our village head.

-She lives here at his house.
-Alright.

What is her name, brother?

-Maggar.
-Maggar?

The girl is so beautiful
and her name is Maggar?

I will slap you hard across your face.

That isn't the girl's name.

-Maggar Singh is our village head's name.
-Okay.

Maggar Singh. Then what is her name?

Hers... What's Rano's name?
It's at the tip of my tongue.

Rano.

-How do you know?
-You just said Rano.

-I will slap you, fool. It is Rano.
-Okay.

What a beautiful name.

Rano.

Look at this cunning guy's eyes.

Even if her name was Chinti instead
of Rano, he would have still liked it.

Ever since I have seen you,
I don't feel like seeing anything else.

I have fallen in love with you.

Say something, sweetheart.

Don't make me open my mouth!

You will not just be infested
by worms but by huge insects!

What?

Yes. I won't even come
to your funeral if you die.

-Go inside.
-I will teach her a lesson.

Let me go.

-I won't spare her today.
-They ruined my dream.

How will they let my love be complete?

They couldn't even let
my dream be complete.

-Let me go!
-Come.

Come!

When you die, I will bring a
horde of women to your funeral.

What other work do you have than
going to funerals, you evil wench?

Stop it now!

Keep asking me to stop!

Don't say anything to
that uncontrollable woman!

Mom, don't spare her today.

Why are you adding fuel to the fire?

Come on, mom, let's go.
Why are you fighting?

What's the point of
buttermilk and fighting?

They can be increased
to any extent. Let's go.

How can I go like this?
I will fix her. Just be grateful

that my nature is calm. No one
speaks loudly at our house ever.

-Her voice is so loud, this evil woman.
-Come!

Come! I will burn your hair!

We know how calm you are. Let's go.

Stop it! Look at that swine.

He is encouraging his mom so much.

Alright. I am going to sleep.

Now settle this matter, you robber.

Dad, what kind of a wife do you have?

Let me go!

I will fix her today.

This beggar is just dying to fight!

You are a beggar!
And so is your entire clan!

Mom, why are you fighting empty-handed?

Pick up your weapon
and hit her on the nostrils.

Let me go!

I will teach her a lesson today!

-Come on!
-Come on!

I have to go and wash my dishes.

Otherwise, I would have
taught you a lesson.

Okay... If I didn't have
to wash clothes today,

I would have wrestled
you to the ground too.

-Go!
-Go!

Pal.

-Hey, Pal.
-Yes?

She is so beautiful, isn't she?

Yes. She is very beautiful.

Her big beautiful eyes.

Her pearl-white teeth.

I didn't look at her so closely.
How did you?

When she speaks, brother, it
seems flowers are blooming.

Speaks?

-She didn't say anything.
-But Aarti didn't stop talking.

Which Aarti?

The chitrahaar one.

You foolish-faced idiot.

I had heard about stupid faces,

what is this foolish-faced idiot?

Your face is foolish.

I am talking about Rano.

The one whom Buta was talking about.

Oh, God, she is so beautiful.

Pal, I just feel like I
should keep staring at her.

I am not talking about you. Get lost.

Put the gear in reverse, you big-shot.

Come. Today we will talk about...

-Move aside.
-Is she here?

Come, sit.

Buta, congratulations.
The TV has brought life into your house.

[Indistinct TV playing continues]

Isn't this amazing?

Buta.

She is so beautiful.

What is this? Do I need
to ask you especially?

The transformer has exploded.

Now do you want the
Television to explode too?

Get up. Be gone.

Damn fools.

These Television people have
become completely shameless.

They are openly hugging
each other in front of everyone.

A family can't sit together
and watch anything.

Oh, God Almighty.
These are such bad times, sister.

I would never let such an
obnoxious thing enter my home.

Just keep watching.
This will be in every house.

A time will come when
Televisions will be in everyone's house.

These tiny people that come on Television,

which country are they from?

Their faces and features
look exactly like ours.

Haven't you heard there
are dwarfs under the earth?

That's who they are.

Look, how amazing the nature is.

God sustains everyone.

Even these people have found
employment because of Television.

Here you go.

Dude, Dharmendar is really very strong.

He beats up ten men like a bull mauls
down everything that comes in his way.

Amitabh is even stronger than him.

He beats up twenty guys at
the same time, do you know?

Mithun is the strongest of them all.

He will beat up both
Amitabh and Dharmendar.

Hey, Ruldu,
just because you couldn't get married,

it doesn't mean that
you will hug the sacks.

You are barking around as if
I am hugging Hema Malini.

It's been an hour since I
have been wrestling with this thing.

Don't mock me.

Help me pick this up first.

I brought

wheat.

Do people bring sugarcane here?
They bring wheat obviously.

Grind it by the evening.

I won't be able to grind it by evening.

Take a look inside.
The mill is full of sacks.

You don't know, we are
unable to make roti at home.

Now should I go and make
roti for you at your house?

Don't talk nonsense.

Yes. Because...

How would I know about the
pain of not being able to make roti?

A poor guy who couldn't make anything.

What happened?

What should I tell you, friend?

-This is what I am unhappy about.
-Yes.

-Nothing happened.
-Is that so?

I couldn't tell her what was in my heart.

She got married in front of me and left.

Your friend was left crying.

"Watching your wedding procession leave,"

"Ruldu cried his heart out."

Beware, Tari Singh. Lest what
happened to Ruldu, happens to you.

You are incapable of grinding
things in the mill too.

Alright. I'll be back, Ruldu.

Listen to me.

Tell me at least, how do you
want it ground? Rough or fine?

Grind it as you wish.

Okay. I will grind it the way I want.
Then they will say the flour is bad.

Okay. Drink some milk.

Dad, I don't want to go home yet.

May I stay here with
Aunt for another few days?

Of course, daughter.
You may stay for as long as you want.

This is your Aunt's home.

We had a gathering here
and I came to give a speech.

So I thought that I will pick you
up on the way back home.

If you want to stay
here then do it happily.

Just for another few days.

Why only a few days?
Stay for as long as you want.

Rano.

Come. Let's go watch Television.

Television?

May I... go?

Yes, daughter, yes.

Come on.

-Karnail Singh.
-Yes?

Since this Television
has come to our village,

no one feels like
going out of the village.

The entire village is
stuck to it like leeches.

Is that right?

So this disease has
come to your village too?

Jaila's son Buta's wife
brought it in her dowry.

Dowry?

A Television in dowry?

Take me to their house once
where the Television is playing.

-Why? Do you want to watch it too.
-I won't watch it.

They are the ones who will watch.

Oh, alright. Don't get angry.

-The milk will get cold. Drink it.
-I don't want to drink milk.

You are the head of the village.

Can't you stop this poison of dowry?

These people who are greedy
for dowry have dirtied our society.

Earlier, they just used to ask for a girl.

Then radio and cycle. Now they
have started demanding Televisions.

Slowly they will start demanding cars.

Tell me, what will you do then?

Alright. Don't get so agitated.

-Have these snacks.
-Keep the snacks.

-I won't eat it.
-Your activism is too much.

She hasn't come.

-It hasn't come.
-It hasn't come.

Wait. I will tell you when it comes.

Wait. I will tell you when it comes.

It still hasn't come?

Okay, I will move it a bit.
I'll point it towards Jalandhar.

Now see, has it come?

Buta, has it still not come?

Are you in such a hurry?
You'll know when it works.

Are you in such a hurry?
We'll tell you when it works.

And... now?

Here comes... Aunt.

Idle fool.

Has she come or shall I move it more?

She still hasn't come.

-She's here.
-She's here.

-It's working.
-It's working.

Look at how it's rotating.

Move back.

He is so omniscient.

How did he find out that it's here?

Greetings.

What are you doing standing here?

Come on, let's grab a seat.
The Television is about to start.

'Greetings. I am your
very own, Aarti Sahni.'

'I bring to you, your
favourite weekly program,'

'Chitrahaar.'

"My eyes have forgotten their shyness."

"This love has become sweet trouble."

"We cannot listen to
this silly heart anymore."

"Mistakes have crossed all limits."

"Please, forgive me, Sir."

"For the mistakes of these eyes."

"Please, forgive me, Sir."

"For the mistakes of these eyes."

"You were a stranger a few moments ago."

"You have become God for me so quickly."

"Yes, I was living earlier too."

"You have become a reason for me to live."

"The stage of love is set."

"God has blessed us in such a way today."

"Please, forgive me, Sir."

"For the mistakes of these eyes."

"Please, forgive me, Sir."

"For the mistakes of these eyes."

"Believe me, it seems like..."

"all my dreams have come true,
now that I have met you."

"I will be with you..."

"like the stars have been
with the sky since ages."

"When you looked at me"

"your eyes became a pilgrimage for me."

"Please, forgive me, Sir."

"For the mistakes of these eyes."

"Please, forgive me, Sir."

"For the mistakes of these eyes."

Oh, Buta. What are you doing here?

This is our house.

You haven't slept till now?

We will sleep if you leave.

Or should we make you fools sleep with us?

We are leaving.

Let's go, Tari. The old hag is angry.

She won't even hesitate to hit me.

They have no work at all.

Listen Vidwaan, these dwarfs,

they must be coming out of
the box to use the toilet, isn't it?

Why will they come out? They do it inside.

That is why the box stinks so much.
I don't sit near it. I sit far from it.

There he goes.

'Fool!'

'Go and touch Lord
Ram's feet if you must.'

Hey!

May you rot in hell.

Why did you turn it off, Mom?

Scoundrels have turned
my home into a motel.

Go on, get out.

-Leave.
-She ruined our fun. Let's go.

That is why I don't come to their house.

Didn't you hear? Get up.

Damn hero.

Should I send you an invitation too?

Damn fool. Do some work.

Go and shut this in a box.

These fools have started a
community kitchen in my house.

Mom, let it be. Why are
you keeping it in the box?

Will we sit in the box
and watch Television?

What should I do? These imbeciles
have made it difficult for me to breathe.

I don't know about our breathing,

but this poor thing won't be
able to breathe in the box.

It won't suffocate.

Say something.
You brought it in your dowry.

Yes, make her like yourself.

Come on, help me.

Come along.
Keep it inside. Help me open it.

Lift it.

They will all rot.

Look at her running around now
and then she says her knees hurt.

Don't talk so much. Just do as I asked.

Seeto is very arrogant
about her Television.

What arrogance, sister?

She is a miser.

Yes.

She will be cursed by the villagers.

She will even be cursed by
the people inside the Television.

Let it be.
Why are you gossiping? Do you work.

People can't seem to satisfy themselves.

Look at how much dowry Seeto's son got.

They are still paupers.

They act like they are dying if
we go to watch a little Television.

If it's such a big deal then I
will arrange food for the dwarfs.

It's not like we are dying of hunger.

Bindu, I can't get enough
of watching the Television.

It would have been so much fun
if Buta's mom had let us watch it.

Oh, holy Saint, I will distribute sweets
worth one rupee if Buta's mom dies.

Not one rupee, we will distribute
sweets worth five rupees.

Hail, the holy Saint.

'I am pumping the hand pump
with a scarf on my shoulder.'

'Leave all your work and read my letter.'

'My beloved Rano.'

Hey, let's go.

No, no, no.

Go.

Just leave.

Oh, my God.

Leave!

Uncle...

We are dead.

Let's go.

Come on. Start it.

-Hurry up.
-Who are you guys?

Why don't you speak? Who are you, guys?

We are...

-Census office.
-We are from the census office.

We came to find out the
qualifications of everyone in the village.

What is that?

Nothing. What is it?

Give it to me. Hand it over.

No, no. It's nothing.

-It's nothing.
-Hand it to me!

Read it out to me.

-You can't read?
-No.

-I am illiterate.
-Alright.

But I am very clever.

Just read it to me.

Consider me as clever as yourself.

You are illiterates

and you work for the census office?

It's alright.

Nowadays, illiterates are
becoming village heads.

Right, Mr village head?

How do you know I am the village head?

Your attitude suggests that you
must definitely be the village head.

-His moustache is so impressive too.
-Yes, it is.

Give us your permission to leave then.

-We shall leave.
-Go on, get lost.

-You should watch Television.
-Do your work.

The gear got stuck.

-Just give it a push.
-Greetings.

Oh, you are here again?

Please, leave. If mom
sees you, she will abuse me.

I am begging you, brother.
Turn your Television on.

Look, how he is dying for the Television.
You can't take a dump without it, can you?

Television is my only excuse to see Rano.

I neither feel sleepy nor hungry.

My heart is being pulled.

I don't know about your pull,

but if I ask mom to turn on the
Television, she will thrash me badly.

Make some excuse and send
your mom somewhere.

Send your mom out.
She is my mom not a cow.

That I can leave her
out to graze in the field.

Brother, do something.

Please, brother.

Don't fold your hands like this, man.

-Think of something.
-I will think.

Ruldu.

Alakh Niranjan!

Lady, come here.
This saint will entertain you.

Who is this new saint?

Daughter, bring some flour for the saint.

-Yes, mom.
-Why do the saints need flour?

Tell me what kind of
flour do you need?

Rough or finely ground?
Do you want wheat or corn flour?

What are you saying, saint?

I mean tell me what kind
of a grandchild do you want?

Thin, fat or medium-sized?

The lady is laughing.

You are such an omniscient saint.

I won't have found the address.
Your son guided me.

-Buta?
-I mean,

-that your son, Buta.
-Yes.

He is a very pure soul, lady.

His devotion has pulled me here.

I don't know about that, saint.

But he is definitely a very useless soul.

Let it be. Come, sit.

Praise the God!

Command us, please.

I won't command you.

I have to throw you out of the house.

You have to throw me out?

I mean I have to pull
you out of your problems.

I must bring happiness to this house.

Do you want a grandchild or not?

You have guessed what was in my heart.

This house won't hear the cries of a child

as long as you keep sitting here.

What now?

Should mom keep standing?

Not standing, she should
go to the saint's place

and light a lamp.

Alright. Oh, saint,

I will go. It is nearby.
I will go twice or thrice daily.

Don't do that!

You must fill the lamp
and light it with devotion.

You mustn't return home

as long as the lamp
doesn't run out of oil.

Otherwise, God will
treat you in a hurry too.

If you have a worthless
grandchild then you will repent.

-No, no. -Saint, for how many
days should she light the lamp?

Well...

As long as Tari needs to get his job done.

-Tari?
-Yes, the saint is very powerful.

You should understand.

When you are successful,
throw the lamp away.

Goodbye.

The customers at my
flour mill, I mean to say...

my devotees must be waiting.
Praise the God!

Alakh Niranjan! Your car and my engine.

"Some feel a very amazing
thing has arrived."

"Some say this box has ruined the world."

"The antenna on the roof
has become a status symbol."

"Television people
have created such trouble."

"Just watch and let me
watch the fun on Television."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."

"Some watch Rangoli and some watch news."

"It has made two people
fall impatiently in love."

"Some watch Rangoli and some watch news."

"It has made two people
fall impatiently in love."

"Because of it, my eyes search for you."

"What is this gift?
The pictures are talking."

"The DD station is so much fun."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."

"The day since this Television
came into the village,"

"some people are rejoicing
and some are grieving."

"The day since this Television
came into the village,"

"some people are rejoicing
and some are grieving."

"Some are learning new
ways to sow vegetables."

"Some want to listen to old songs."

"Some want to listen to new songs.
The fun of Television."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."

"Television people
have created such trouble."

"Some want to listen to new songs.
The fun of Television."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."

There is no need to give
dowry to such greedy people.

Comrade, you? We didn't even invite you.

-So what?
-Just a minute.

Jaila Singh, this tradition of dowry that
you are following is absolutely wrong.

These kind of people are greedy.

They are neither satisfied
on this earth nor in the crematorium.

Listen to me, these people are a burden.

As long as Comrade Karnail
Singh is alive in this village,

I will neither let anyone
give dowry not let anyone take it.

Comrade, let's do one thing.
Let's sit inside and talk.

We should sit inside
and discuss such things.

Say whatever you want to say right here.

In the near future,

people won't get their sons married.
Instead, they will start selling them.

And people won't give
birth to daughters out of fear.

Do you understand this or not?

I suggest that the ones taking
and giving dowry should be imprisoned.

-Go inside.
-And one more thing. Hey, listen to me!

You will regret this!

Listen! Open the door, Jaila Singh!

Listen, Jaila...

"Pull me by my arm towards the rooftop."

If anyone sees us, we'll get in trouble.

No one will see anything.
Only I will see you.

This method is so much
better than letters, right?

Absolutely not.

Is writing letters better?
Then I will write from now on.

Neither writing letters is good nor this.

Then what else do you like?

I like you.

Same for me.

I see only you when I
eat, drink, wake up or sleep.

I feel like running away with you.

No, no. Running away is
not acceptable in our village.

Come on. In which village
is running away acceptable?

It needs to be made acceptable.

Whatever it is, I won't go
against the wishes of my family.

Really? Alright then.

Now I will take you with
your family's permission.

"I don't feel good alone."

"The home seems lonely too."

"I don't feel good alone."

"The home seems lonely too."

"The way you wake
the Jatt up so lovingly."

"I miss you"

"early in the morning."

"I miss you badly."

"My heart sings for you."

"Meet me soon or I will die."

"My heart sings for you."

"Meet me soon or I will die."

"I have lost my mind in your love."

"Love has made a mess and I feel shy,"

"and I am also excited to be yours."

"I feel shy and I am
also excited to be yours."

"Saying your name makes
me feel intoxicated."

"If you come and embrace me,
I won't be able to control my heartbeat."

"Your picture is printed in my eyes."

"Your round face."

"I miss you badly early in the morning."

"I can't handle my flaming youth alone."

"The necklace seems heavy in my neck.
The ring makes my little finger ache."

"If I don't see you, I feel anxious."

"I feel shy and I am
also excited to be yours."

"I feel shy and I am
also excited to be yours."

Tell me, do you want a match
where you give a ring or a bracelet?

-Ring?
-Bracelet?

-You didn't understand, did you?
-No.

Look, if you want to give a
little ring in for the little finger,

-Yes.
-then I will find a normal match.

If you'll give a large
ring for the big finger,

-then I will find a special match.
-Alright.

Why are you hiding your thumb?

Look, lady.

You can't wear a ring on your thumb.
And the thumb is stuck to the wrist.

-Yes.
-And a bracelet is worn on a wrist.

Look, if you give a bracelet,

then I will find a top-notch match.

And the girl will be
extremely beautiful too.

And I will get you a Television in dowry.

What the hell will
we do with a Television?

A person will be happy
if it's an animal or cattle.

Your thinking is limited to cattle.

You don't know anything about Televisions.

The one who has a Television
at his house is a King.

A house with a Television is
more impressive than a village head.

Then such people can't
be considered as commoners.

Not just the village,
the entire area stares

and wonders that these
people have a Television.

They can't be treated as commoners.

When a Television comes into your house...

your relatives will die of
envy that you have a Television.

That's enough.

Just find a match. And assume
that you have already got the bracelet.

Then do one thing,

find a spot on your gallery
where you want to place your Television.

Well, my bracelet is final here.

Alright.

Brother, listen to me before you leave.

Alright.

Yes? What is it?

I can't tell you here.
Come, let's talk in secret.

Alright.

Sit here, brother.

You could have said that there.

I couldn't have said this there.

They say that even walls have ears.

People unnecessarily
say that walls have ears.

I have never seen a wall wearing earrings.

Look, brother.

Why are you ruining someone's daughter's
life for the greed of a bracelet?

Tomorrow you will get a bracelet
but you will also get thrashed.

Their son is deaf.
The poor guy can't hear.

Is that so?

Now I realized that walls have ears.

Look, they will give you a bracelet.
But I will give you a pair.

Just get us that thing

with which we will become
more impressive than the village head.

The relatives shouldn't
be able to look at us

and they should die of jealousy.

Alright! A Television?

Yes! Television!
Get the same match for my son.

And I will tell you something else.

With God's grace, my son is a hundred
times better looking than their son.

Now keep your word.

I give you my word.

But we must get a Television in dowry.

He will be a dog's son who
doesn't get you a Television in dowry.

Just measure my wrists
for a pair of bracelets.

Now that woman will die of jealousy.

Mom, who was that man?

He was your matchmaker.

Get ready for your wedding.

Matchmaker? It's all set then.

Brother.

Don't fire. Don't fire.

I am safe! The bullet didn't hit me!

It didn't hit me.

-Greetings.
-Greetings from me too.

-What brings you here?
-Brother, I have come for my wedding.

Yes. Which match do I
have so early in the morning?

Brother, we want to fix a marriage
not get a herb that will hurt us.

-Yes.
-What?

Understand.

I have understood.

That means you

want to see the girl before your family.

Silly, I have already seen the girl.

Then did you come to me to get mangoes?

Not mangoes, I came to get a matchmaker.

I have the girl. I just need you.

Whose daughter is she?

I will tell you everything.
Just come with us.

Do one thing, go take a bath
and get ready, then we'll leave.

Why do we need a bath?
We have already taken it.

I need to use the toilet first!

Come on!

Your mother wants a Television.
They will give it.

Won't they? Tell me.

I will take a Television in dowry.

I will be adamant and take it.

We were supposed to get the Television.
You are the one who gossiped, you witch!

Just listen to one thing,
if we don't get a Television,

then you won't get it either.

Do your best!

This is what I will demand.

If a daughter-in-law comes into
my house, she will come with a Television.

Otherwise, I swear on my
brothers, I will eat poison and die.

You won't get a Television.

The day your daughter-in-law
comes into your house,

you can take the
poison from me and eat it.

I won't even take a sip
of water from you. Who knows?

You might mix something
in the poison and give it to me.

God forbid that I mix raisins
in your poison and give you.

Don't push me to give you dried dates.

-Get lost!
-Go to hell!

-Keep barking.
-Go away. Don't make me thrash you.

I am very happy to hear this from you

that they want our daughter
in just three clothes.

Sardar, that's all well and good.

But I just wanted to discuss
a small thing with you.

Yes. Go ahead.

Before I tell you the
boy's name, family and address,

I have a small request.

You may send your daughter
in two clothes instead of three.

Just give a Television
in your daughter's dowry.

-Stand up.
-Alright.

-Shall we go right now?
-You go!

-Why?
-You are talking about a Television?

I won't even give a timepiece.

I will get my daughter
married in just three clothes.

And how dare you talk to me about dowry?

Greedy people like you ruin entire
families for the sake of a ring!

I swear to God, as long as I am alive,

I will neither allow anyone
to give dowry nor anyone to take it.

Do you understand? Move aside!

Go! Get lost from here!

Get lost!

You are the enemies of our society.

Run...

Have some shame.

Hey!

How many kilometres have
you walked? Stop.

Brother, will the old woman
die if she consumes poison?

So will poison cure a
cold? Of course, she will die.

I think that he will
eat poison before her.

Brother, please, try to find a solution.

There is no solution.

You may run away with
the girl if you can.

Then even her parents
will eat poison and die.

Find another solution, guys.

-Solution...
-There is a solution, boys.

-What?
-If you can find it.

-What, brother?
-Tell us.

I had got someone married.
But they got a divorce.

Damn it.

Tari...

-What happened to him?
-Look at what you are saying.

You have started the boy again.

You are talking about divorce
before he is even married.

Listen to me, first. Stop, friend.

The girl is at her home.

The Television that the
girl took in her dowry,

is also at her home.

It is for sale now.

How much will it cost us, brother?

Approximately Rs. 850.

-Is that all? Only Rs. 850?
-Yes.

Now the important thing is,

where will these damn Rs. 850 come from?

It's alright. We will arrange
some money together.

We are together. Arrange it then.

Tari, let's do this then.

"Television people have
created such trouble."

"Just watch and let me
watch the fun of Television."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."

Oh, damn it.

-Don't touch it.
-Look at this.

He made an antenna on his back. Look.

Let it be.

Does it look like
he will give you money?

This fool will ask us for money instead.

What happened to you?

Nothing, brother.

I went to fix someone's
engine. They thought I am a thief.

They beat me to a pulp for no reason.

So that means that you
didn't bring any money?

What will happen now?

The matchmaker is sitting ready there.

Oh, no, don't do this, Pal.

Arrange the money.

Your Aunt Aarti will
come on the Television too.

Aunt...

Brother, I don't have
money but I do have an Aunt.

What? Now will we sell
your Aunt and arrange the money?

He has no shame.

No, brother. My Aunt is very strong.

What do we care if she is strong?
Are we going to make her wrestle?

No, brother. My Aunt is very strong.

Her son has gone abroad.

I went to visit her three years ago.

She gave me fifty rupees
as a gift. Let's go there.

Fifty won't be enough.
We just have another hundred.

Well, what do you know?
My Aunt is very generous.

If she gives me fifty rupees then she
will also give you fifty rupees each.

-Damn.
-Yes.

Then we will have quite a bit of money.

That would be amazing.

We will go to the
market and eat fritters

and also have some dessert.

Hey, you. My Aunt has
three imported buffaloes.

She will make milk pudding
for us as soon as she sees us.

Come on, let's go. Come.

Stop. We have reached.

-Is this it? Shall we get down.
-Yes.

This is my Aunt's home.

Come along.

Greetings, Uncle.

-Greetings.
-He is not my Uncle.

Did you come here to get money?

-Yes.
-Go on. Take it.

See? I told you that my Aunt
keeps donating money, didn't I?

-Yes, brother.
-Greetings, Aunt. Are you alright?

Pal.

I don't see any buffaloes.

They are rich people. They
must have tied them indoors.

Looks like Aunt has given
her money for charity.

She didn't spend anything at home.

-I feel the same.
-Aunt.

These are my friends.

This is Buta and this is Tari.

-Greetings.
-Greetings, Son.

Greetings. May God bless
you with long life and prosperity.

-Greetings, Uncle.
-Sit, my child.

-Are you alright?
-Greetings, Son.

Keep resting, Uncle. It's alright.

-He seems ill.
-So how's it going, Aunt?

How are you? When will
brother return from abroad?

What should I tell you?

I am alright, Son.

It's all in front of you.

Your brother has gone abroad but...
the silly boy

stopped sending money first.

And now we haven't heard
from him since two years.

Son, I don't know why
he became so ruthless.

Your Uncle is bed-ridden.
He has been sick.

I brought a little
milk in the morning...

It is finished.

On top of that, the damn doctor said

that he should take
his medicine with milk.

What else should I tell you?

That moneylender took our buffalo too.

He said we still owe
him a thousand rupees.

Son...

He said otherwise he will come
and take all our belongings.

Son, I don't know what
will become of us now.

Slowly.

Do you think we can get
married by lying like this?

What other choice do we have?

You were the one who said you want to
get married with your parent's permission.

Look, don't be scared now.
We'll have to do this much.

Yes, but the lie won't remain hidden.

What will happen when
everyone comes to know the truth?

I don't know about that.

We will get married like this now.

I am scared.

Stop saying that and scaring me too.

Just support me.

Rest is up to God now.

All the work will be done

when the whole society improves.

So what I said had an affect on them.

They won't ask for a
Television in dowry now, will they?

Not at all. I have discussed
the Television issue in detail.

-Sure?
-Yes.

Go and discuss it once again.

Then it will be finalised.

Well, what are you saying?

I will go and be right back.

Look, they may send their
daughter in three clothes.

I have no objection.

But I need the Television
under any circumstances.

You have discussed
this properly, haven't you?

I am afraid that this whole
thing will come undone.

What will come undone?

I mean I have discussed the
matter about the Television.

Do you understand?

Just stay quiet.

-Come. Congratulate each other.
-Yes.

-Come on, everyone.
-Come.

Come.

-Come, Son.
-God Almighty.

Has the matter of dowry
been discussed with you?

It has been, sister. It has been.

Sister, I really like one
thing about you.

That you want our
girl in just three clothes.

Yes, yes, yes.

You may send your
daughter in just three clothes.

The Television...

Just play the wedding music now.

-Here, Sister. Congratulations.
-Many congratulations to you as well.

"My mom keeps presents safe at home."

"She sees the earrings that she bought
for you one hundred times in a day."

"I will wear a turban that
matches your wedding dress."

"I will wear a turban that
matches your wedding dress."

"Watch how handsome I look."

"Nowadays my heart
wants to fly, my beloved."

"Nowadays my heart
wants to fly, my beloved."

"The colour has become so dark
where you wrote my name with Henna."

"Look your dad gave you to me today."

"The colour has become so dark
where you wrote my name with Henna."

"Look your dad gave you to me today."

"I was incomplete without you."

"This is not a secret."

"Nowadays my heart
wants to fly, my beloved."

"I feel so shy when
someone says your name."

"My heart says be patient, she
will become yours tomorrow."

"Your sister-in-law
must be teaching you,"

"how to behave at your in-laws house."

"Nowadays my heart
wants to fly, my beloved."

"Nowadays my heart
wants to fly, my beloved."

Tari. Hey, Tari.

Where are you lost?
Sister-in-law is waiting. Go now.

-Okay, I am going.
-Wait. Have a drink before you go.

-Take this.
-No, no, brother.

Have a small one then. Just a little.

Be strong. You should be strong and go.

Drink up.

Congratulations, sister.

You are the way you are so I thought
I will come and congratulate you.

I don't see your... Television anywhere.

Has it gone for an outing?

Why don't you speak?

Did a snake bite you?

Snake will bite you.

You have the tongue of a
dog and you are just barking with it.

No, sister.

Why are you getting angry?

And anyway, you are
just alive for a few days.

Why would I get angry with you?

And another thing.

You have neither got a
Television and nor you'll get one.

You are the one who said
that if I don't get a Television,

I will drink poison.

Here. Drink it now.

You better drink it now.

He has become a lion now.

Come on. Buck up.

Alright, I am going.

What happened, mom?

Nothing has happened yet.

If you go inside, a lot will happen.

I will be disgraced in
front of the relatives.

Mom, how will you be
disgraced if I go inside?

I am not going to someone else's
wife. I am going to mine. Let me go.

I will eat poison and die.

Then you can go over my deadbody.

He is in such a hurry.

Mom, what are you doing?

Tell me what happened?

You are behaving as if
you don't know anything.

Where is the matchmaker?
Hey, matchmaker!

Yes?

Come here.

I am coming.

-Yes.
-Damn your yes.

Where is the Television?

Television... I will
tell you... Television... he knows.

What does he know? You tell me.

Tell her.

Mom, it will come. It's on
the way. It got punctured.

You fools, it's a Television
not a tractor that it got punctured.

Mom, it will come by a
tractor. It won't walk and come.

It will be here tomorrow. Now let me go.

You will go inside tomorrow
too. I am standing right here.

And listen, you matchmaker!

If the Television doesn't come,
I will send the girl right back.

And your hands which were
going to get a pair of bracelets,

you will fold those very
hands in front of me.

My temper is even uglier than your face.

Go from here.

Okay, sister.

You have got me in trouble.

What kind of a devilish mom do you have?

There are so many
mosquitoes. Mom, mosquitoes.

Rano.

Rano.

Hey, Rano.

You?

I couldn't see mom anywhere.

So I thought I should
come and see my wife.

No, go from here.

If mom sees you we will get in trouble.

How will there be trouble?

I will break the trouble's legs.

Speak softly. Don't make jokes.

God forbid, mom throws us
out of the house because of me.

She is a mother.

A mother's happiness is
in the happiness of her kids.

And the matter escaleted at night.

By now mom must have
forgotten about the Television.

Tari!

-Tari!
-I am coming, mom.

I am coming.

Listen, woman.

What happened, mom?

Here is the vial of poison.

If the Television comes today,

then you will drink it.

If it doesn't come,
then I will drink it.

Here. Drink your tea.

Look at how he is lying down
like a bull is lying sick.

Since that woman has come into this
house, demand everything on bed.

Greetings, Aunt.

Here comes the idle
fool of the first order.

Come on in, Tari Singh.

Well, the newly-married
boy is prancing around.

I couldn't come for your wedding.

I am sorry, my friend.

I had to go to my in-laws place. My
only brother-in-law was getting married.

Your brother was as influential
as the Prime Minister there.

Tell me about your wedding.
Did everything go well?

Did any problem happen
there because of the Television?

-That is what I came to tell you.
-What?

That is too much.

Your mom is really very cruel.

Now tell me, what should we do?

Now you can just pray, brother.

Neither your
father-in-law will give you a

Television and nor your
mom will rest without it.

Just be strong now. What else?

I didn't come here
for your encouragement.

So should I pick up my
Television and hand it to you?

Don't make me break your teeth.
You are nodding your big head.

I won't give you my Television.

Friends give their lives for friends.
You can't even give a Television?

You can take my life twenty time.
I have extra lives.

My mom's life is in this.

She will not agree.

That means that you have agreed?

You can assume that I have half-agreed.

Rest if mom agrees
then take the Television.

Come with me to convince your mom.

Listen to me.

-Come on, get up, my brother.
-Why are you inviting trouble?

She won't say anything. Come on.

-Don't invite trouble.
-Come.

Mom, Tari...

-wants to borrow our Television.
-Yes.

He wants to borrow it.

Mom will slap me.

She will break our faces.

I am already beaten.
Please talk to her, brother.

Come on.

-Mom...
-Yes?

Tari was saying...

that our...

Television...

He wants to borrow our Television.

Shame on you!

It's a Television.

Not an axe or a dagger.

Does anyone ask to borrow a Television?

People feel no shame
while asking for things.

They come with their mouths open.

Give us this, give us that.

-Shameless.
-Convince your mom.

Mom, I told him that it's difficult.

He doesn't listen. Come, brother.

Wait. Wait.

Aunt... I am not asking
to borrow your Television.

I want to rent it.

Here's the money.

Take it.

Rent it?

Son, don't think that I
am greedy for money.

No, no.

You are just as dear to me as Buta.

Take the Television.

Just take care of it.

Yes. Definitely.

This... this is for one day.

Mom, I will explain it to him. Okay?

Come. Come on now.

Buta go with him.

Stay near the Television, okay?

It is finally here.

Look, my mom has certain conditions.

No one will touch the
Television other than me.

As long as the Television is here,
your brother will stay here too.

Hello? How?

We had a deal only
regarding the Television.

Actually, this is also
one of my mom's conditions

that I cannot leave
the Television alone.

Why? Will the Television
get bored alone?

You left your wife alone at her maternal
house but you can't leave the Television?

What will I tell my mom?

What do you want to tell me?

-Greetings.
-Who is this boy?

Mom...

Brother. He is sister-in-law's brother.

Yes, he is my brother-in-law.

He came to give the Television.

Came to give the Television?

Yes, Aunt. The Television wasn't
going to walk here on its own.

Someone had to bring it here.

But I didn't see you at the engagement.

-Mom...
-Aunt, he is a soldier.

Yes. A soldier...

He couldn't get time
off on the wedding day.

And how long is your vacation now?

Until she doesn't come back.

What?

He means...
Aunt, he is here permanently.

He injured his head on duty.

They retired him.

Oh! How did you get injured?

I... Just assume that I got
hit by a grenade on my head.

Then how did you survive?

I...

It was raining so the grenade was wet.

It hit me on my head but didn't explode.

It made some noise and fell down.

Well... that is terrible.

What? That why didn't
the grenade explode?

I...

Listen.

You have turned out to be very honest.

Were you about to drink the poison?

It's alright.

Congratulate me for the
Television before you die.

Though I know,

you don't have any self-respect.

Were you running away
with the vial of poison?

If you have any shame
left in you then drink it.

-Get lost.
-Can't you hear?

-Go to hell.
-Why don't you speak?

Drink it now.

So? Did you see Jatt's magic?

I fixed everything, didn't I?

You didn't fix a damn thing.

Tomorrow, when Buta's wife
comes home from her maternal house,

I will go home.

It's alright. Don't worry.

I am here, right?

You are more worried than I am.

Here, drink this milk.

I have thought of everything.

What?

That mom ruined last night.

We won't let tonight be ruined.

"It is a holy time
when the priest sings."

"Your sweet words along with
Gurbani are music to my ears."

"When you clean the
house after churning milk,"

"the fragrance of soil reaches the sky."

"When you touch me
while serving me tea."

"When you touch me."

"Jatt will die if you are not with him."

"Jatt will die if you are not with him."

"I am lost in your beauty."

"God has given me a piece of the moon."

"I am lost in your beauty."

"God has given me a piece of the moon."

"I want to stare at you all day long."

"I should look at you and
then cast the evil eye off you."

"You make me happy
inside when you laugh."

"You make me happy inside."

"Jatt will die if you are not with him."

"Jatt will die if you are not with him."

"My friends say that there is
no one like their sister-in-law."

"I can't breathe if I don't see you."

"My friends say that there is
no one like their sister-in-law."

"I can't breathe if I don't see you."

"You look so sweet when
you look after my family."

"My mom can't stop praising
you, you are so sincere."

"You are with me
through thick and thin."

"You are with me."

"Jatt will die if you are not with him."

"Jatt will die if you are not with him."

What nonsense! Eat your food quietly.

Take it, daughter. This is a tradition.

Mhindo, your daughter-in-law
is very beautiful.

Well, whose daughter-in-law is she?

Not everyone gets
a daughter-in-law and a Television.

Such a big Television is
presented only to influential people.

No one even pushes the weak.

I don't know about us, you wench,

but God will definitely
push you from this world.

Sister, what a thing God
created when he made Television.

Yes.

Our house has become so lively.

I have heard that more men and
women stay in this box than our village.

You are talking about our village?

A lot of countries live inside it.

No one ever came out?

Of course. Let me tell
you about yesterday.

A tiny woman came
and stood by my pillow.

She said she wants to drink water.

I said you are so tiny.

What if you drown in the glass and die?

Thanks, brother Buta.

Rano and I have been
united because of you.

Otherwise, it was very difficult.

What kind of a man is he? He
kisses and then hits a person.

A friend who doesn't
help a friend in need,

will you rub such a loser on your boils?

Brother.

I too have a boil on my heart.

Rub someone on it.

Can anyone get a
boil on their heart, silly?

This is a boil called love, my brother.

Oh, my God!

This will only be healed
by the ointment called Aarti.

Get me married to
Aarti or else I will die.

Brother, we will get you married.
We will do it.

But first,
listen to one thing carefully.

What will you give to the matchmaker?

-Look, Tari. I am a poor man.
-Yes.

I can only give a hug.

Shame on you.

If we only want a hug for matchmaking

then why do we need it from you?

-We will take it from Aarti.
-Yes.

I will be your matchmaker.

We will get hugs.

You are both obnoxious, you scoundrels.

I will not drink with you.

-Alright then. Tari.
-Yes?

On this coming Friday,

we will get him hitched to Aarti.

-But don't deny us the hug.
-But don't deny us the hug.

I won't deny it, brothers.

Alright then.

Are you going there again?

So am I going to drag
myself to your house?

You have stopped me and distracted me.

Now I will have to work doubly hard.

Put some jalebi in the milk.

I will go and be right back.

He will be right back.

[Commercial advertisement on TV]

[Commercial advertisement on TV]

What happened, mom?
You didn't cook any food today?

Give me some lentils at least.

It will spice up my taste buds.

She hasn't even lit a
fire in the hearth yet.

The inferno that is burning in my heart,

can't you see it?

Do one thing, cook a
few rotis on those flames.

We are very hungry.

Shouldn't I fry a chicken for you?

Lentils are fine.

Look how shameless he has become.

This Television that is playing
in the house of our relatives,

it would have played in our courtyard.

I am burning inside.

That wench has driven
a nail through my heart.

Why are you being so grouchy?

She hasn't tied a calf to your nail.

Bagga, my son, he is the way he is.

At least you do something!

Son, your mom won't feel any peace

until people come out of their
Television and mourn them.

These scoundrels.

Alright then, mom,
listen to the mourning.

[Commercial advertisement on TV]

These losers...

No, Bagga! No!

You will be hanged
if you commit a murder.

Let him get hanged then.

These relatives should realize

that this lioness has
given birth to a lion.

It's amazing, isn't it?

Sister, turn it on.
We want to see it too.

I will show it to you right away.

Beware if you touch the
Television, old woman!

This is too much.

Why? Will it get poisoned if I touch it?

I don't know if it will get poisoned
or not but I definitely will.

You run towards the
Television like a hen

that has laid eggs inside it.

Who is he? Why is he talking like this?

He is my son's brother-in-law.

He got injured in the army.

He has gone crazy since then.

I haven't gone crazy, your family has.

They say if a foolish man finds a
torch, he keeps using it in daylight.

That applies to you.

Don't you feel ashamed that you
are living in your sister's house?

You are talking about shame?

If I tell you the truth,
you won't feel shame. You will die.

What truth?

Tell me. I want to hear it too.

What happened, mom?

I don't know which secret your
brother-in-law wants to reveal.

Yes, tell me.

-Listen, Tari...
-Look.

He is addressing you by your name.

He is your brother-in-law.

-Let's go, brother.
-What does brother mean?

Are you acting like him now?

He is your wife's brother.

Let's go, wife's brother.

Mom, you will see. He will
fold his hands and apologize.

You fool, I used to think
that my mom is made of lava.

Your mom is even
more poisonous than her.

Was your mom born or did
she hatch from a snake's egg?

I apologize to you on mom's behalf.

You had agreed to our conditions
too. We had an agreement, right?

That no one will touch the Television.

Your mom doesn't stop
touching the Television.

She strokes it like
she gave birth to it.

Let it go. So what if the poor
woman touched it out of excitement?

Your mom's excitement will
ruin my family's happiness.

Brother, do you think I can lie?

Look, mom says so many things to me too.

Don't get angry. A mom's
abuses are like blessings.

Only you can prosper
with such blessings.

My mom has already given
me my fair share of all this.

I have an idea.

Go and spend a few days at home.

Mom will cool down in the meantime.

No, I won't go home
without the Television.

Please, brother.

What will I tell my mom?

You don't need to say anything to her.

I have the answer to that right here.

Here are fifty rupees.
Give them to your mom.

Your mom won't even look at
you, let alone say anything to you.

You will give my mom a heart attack.

Son, it seems that we will
finally build a bungalow now.

Come.

Look, sister, you are home.

I don't know about a bungalow, mom, but
there will definitely be a fight today.

What are you saying?

Look there.

Come on inside. Hurry up.

Oh, my God.

He came to drop the
girl off two days early.

Mom, if people find out about
the Television in the village,

we will be insulted very badly.

Do one thing, get the Television.

I will handle them.

-Hurry up and go.
-I am going, mom.

-Did you see that?
-Yes.

Oh, my God!

Please see what's wrong
with mom. I will get the doctor.

Dad.

-I am dying.
-Hurry up...

and make a brew of cardamoms and fennel.

Oh, I am dying!

Daughter, grind some black
pepper and add it as well.

-Son, go and bring a few leaves of basil.
-Yes, dad.

-I will get them right away.
-Hurry up.

My lady, what happened to you?

I don't know.

I felt giddy upon seeing you.

Something is tugging at my heart.

Now even my heart is...
being tugged at.

Come, my beloved.

-Take this.
-Sit. We'll drink it together.

-Mom will come.
-Tari!

Yes, mom?

I will go and invite the
village to watch the Ramayana.

That's great, mom. You
must invite everyone.

And do invite the family that lives
at the edge of those faraway fields.

Alright. Fine.

Go slowly. Your knees hurt.

Come and sit down now.

What are you doing? Mom will see.

How will mom see? Mom is gone.

And is the Jatt scared of mom?

-Tari!
-Yes, mom?

-It's you?
-Oh, Tari.

-Listen to me.
-Let's go outside.

-Listen to me first.
-You listen to me.

-I don't care. Listen to me.
-It's very important.

I don't know. First, tell me, you
just left and you are back again?

Brother, nothing will
happen to your Television.

-Tari, I have come to get the Television.
-Television?

No, brother. The Ramayana
is being telecast today.

You will watch the Ramayana but there
will be a Mahabharata at our house.

What are you saying?

My father-in-law and brother-in-law
have come to drop my wife.

Now what?

Now either give me the Television

or the garlands that you
have put around the Television.

They will come in handy for my picture.

-But...
-No buts. I request you.

My wings will get clipped.

Brother, for my sake. Please.

I listened to you
when you made me swear.

I didn't just make you swear, I also
gave you a fifty rupees note with it.

Brother, I have guests at home.

The money will be used
for buying cookies and snacks.

You have got me in trouble.

-Dad, here is the brew.
-What?

The brew?

How will the poor woman
drink such a hot drink?

Dad, leaves.

Are you alright, mom?

What leaves are these?

You fool, these are henna leaves.

Are we going to rub
these under her feet?

There must be basil outside a temple.

Get it from there.

-Okay.
-What happened?

Dad, this is a lamp which is
fluttering before it is extinguished.

You, wretched boy.

Try to say something sensible for once.

-Dad, Greetings. A proper one this time.
-Greetings.

Buta Singh,
you went out to get a doctor.

You are coming from inside.

What do we need a doctor for?

We will get the nail on
this cot hammered by him.

Can't you see? She is lying here sick.

We had to get medicines from a doctor.

Oh, yes. I just remembered.

-I went to get a doctor.
-Then?

The doctor himself had a cold.
He went to see a senior doctor.

Then what kind of a doctor is he?

He cannot even fix his own cold.

Well, though I was going
to the senior doctor as well,

then I heard a voice from my soul
that said go home, Buta.

Your mom is better.

Your mom is fine.

Your mom will get up
right now like a horse, Buta.

Here you go. See this.

It is a miracle!

I know everything.

Thank you so much, God Almighty.

Go.

You heard my prayers.

-Dad.
-Yes?

We are getting late. We
have to go somewhere else too.

Shall we bid
goodbye to brother-in-law?

Alright, then. I will take your leave.

Son, you...
must take care of her.

Look after her properly.

Just a minute...

If you need money etc...

then borrow it from someone.

Okay, dad.

Alright then.

It's fine that you are
leaving but before you go,

see your Television once.

No, no.

We have gifted the
Television to you to watch.

You gifted it to us and it's
not like we have rented it.

It is right here. Take a look.

No, no. We are getting late.

Damn.

I worked so hard for no reason.

Why? Did you make an elephant?

What should a man explain to them?

Dad, brother-in-law is insisting
so much. Let's see it once.

What is wrong in it?

Don't insist now.

We have forgotten the antennas at home.

When did I insist so much?

I insisted a little
and your dad refused.

Now you are unnecessarily
asking to see it.

Bye.

Dad.

Greetings is done. Let's go now.

What a witch she is!

Om Hare!

Om!

Om!

-Hail, Lord Ram.
-Hail, Lord Ram.

Go ahead and turn on the Television.

-Hail, Lord Ram.
-Yes.

No!

Don't turn it on yet, mom.

Why?

There is still time for
the Ramayana to start.

It's not like the Television will
get angry if we turn it on early.

No, mom...

Lord Krishna will get angry.

Lord Krishna?

What? Lord Krishna in the Ramayana?

What happened?

-I don't know.
-"The streets will become empty."

"Mirza is roaming..."

"Bagga is roaming on the streets."

-Keepa.
-Yes?

Isn't your friend becoming
terrifying with each passing day?

When I walk out on the streets,

people shut their doors and windows
and lock themselves in their houses.

I am Bagga, right?

Or do I look like Jagga the robber?

Not your terror, Tari's influence
is increasing day by day.

Okay.

Everyone has gone to their
house to watch the Ramayana.

It's not starting.

Do something then. Will I do it?

Listen to me.

-What should I do with this?
-Follow me.

This is too much. I don't
even know how to ride it.

I sense there is something fishy here.

Keepa.

Find an inside man
who will reveal their secrets.

Turn it on. It's time.

I am dead.

Oh! Damn the electricity department.

There is no electricity
at the time of Ramayana.

Have fun now.

Has God ever visited a sinner's home?

The day God comes, he will
come to get this wretched woman.

I hope that the person who caused
the power cut is infested with worms.

Let it be, mom. Why
should we curse someone?

Who knows when the power cut will end?

I feel like strangling that
person with my thumb.

Who are you abusing, Aunt?

I am complaining about
the electricity department.

What? There is no power cut outside.

Oh, Aunt.

You are abusing the electricity
department but your own fuse is loose.

Wait. I'll fix it.

Hail, Lord Ram.

Oh, God!

I have been robbed, people!

Our relatives got our Television stolen!

May you lose everything!

I hope you rot in hell!

Why are you accusing us?

The Television must have
found out about your status too.

I will break your face.

The poor thing must have
ran away because of shame.

If you bark too much,

I will open your skull with this.

Don't you dare accuse us!

I won't accuse you, I will
get you thrashed by the cops.

No one has been born
who can thrash Biro.

-Don't make me cut you into pieces.
-Aunt, let it be.

Don't argue with her.

-I know you quite well.
-Just get lost.

-Stop it!
-Get lost!

Mom, you are abusing there and
the Television is lying right here.

How did it get there?

Mom, the dwarfs got sick.

I took them to a senior
doctor for treatment.

-Where is the medicine?
-Hail, Lord Ram.

-Hail, Lord Ram.
-Hail, Lord Ram.

-Hail, Lord Ram.
-Hail, Lord Ram.

-Hail, Lord Ram.
-Hail, Lord Ram.

Get married now.

We can at least see our sister-in-law.

-You want to see your sister-in-law?
-Yes.

Come with me to Tari's house.

By sister-in-law I mean your wife.

-Mine is at Tari's house too. Aarti.
-How?

-Who is Aarti?
-Brother, the girl from Chitrahaar.

Say that again.

-Say it.
-The one from Chitrahaar.

She comes on Television.
I will marry her. You'll see.

How will Aarti come
out of the Television?

No one comes out of the Television.

If that was possible then Tari's family

would have cleared everything
out of the Television by now.

You are just talking nonsense.

-Tari told me that...
-Tari is a liar of the first order.

I don't know how they
have got this Television

from their-in-laws.

The Television is not his, it's Buta's.

His father-in-law doesn't
give a dead insect to anyone.

How is that?

Come here.

Yes.

Now I have got the right information.

How should we end this
Television drama now?

Do something and end this drama,
brother.

Otherwise, we will be
finished, I am telling you.

Do whatever you can and end this mess.

I can' hide the truth anymore.

Tari, I do have an idea.

-What?
-We will get the Television stolen.

Your mom will suspect your relatives.

No, brother. Both the
families will end up fighting.

Okay. As if now they see each
other's faces and break their fasts.

They will fight for another
few days. How does it matter?

Yes. I think what
brother is saying is right.

It' not like they don't fight
over the Television now.

The discord will come to an end.

Alright then. As you like.

How can I dare to say no?

-This is more like it.
-Sit down.

You are always in a hurry.

We won't steal the Television right now.

-Why?
-Then when will we do it?

Let's watch the movie which
will be telecast on Thursday.

And Rekha is in it too.

Is that so? Should I show you Rekha?

And Amitabh will be there too.

Then it's fine.

The main thing is

that our society is like wood.

And this wood

is being eaten from the inside
by the termites called dowry.

That's right.

The thorns that you are sowing,

your coming generations
will have to reap them.

That's true.

The one who is giving the dowry is the

bigger culprit than
the one who is taking it.

-Yes.
-Yes.

If we stop giving dowry,

then taking it will automatically stop.

-Right, Jaila Singh?
-Bravo!

Wow, Mr Comrade.

-You have made a great point.
-Thank you, young man.

-Now tell me.
-Yes?

What should be the punishment
for the one who gives dowry?

Such a man should
be made to ride a donkey

with his face black and
taken around the whole village.

We will get a donkey for you then.

Boy, what are you saying?

Really?

You have hidden your secrets
and you are lying to others.

Who are you?

Do you want mangoes?

I will tell you.

This man is a hypocrite.

He is fooling you.

He doesn't let your sisters and
daughters get married because of dowry.

-And he has given his daughter dowry.
-Control your tongue.

He got his real daughter
married to my real Uncle's real son.

After giving such a
big Television in dowry.

Television and me?

Yes, you gave a Television.

If you don't believe us then go and see.

-Yes. Let's go.
-Let's go.

Am I scared? Come on, let's go.

Let's take some water with us.

I will... hang you on a tree.

Let's go.

Yes.

-Keepa.
-Yes?

We have completed this job.

They must have reached there.

And these people will reach too.

Hurry up and finish your chores.

We will miss the movie and
then we won't find time to watch it.

-Buta.
-Yes.

Mom is so happy, right?

She is happy.

But what does she know
that this is her last film?

No, no, I am just saying that we
will steal the Television after that.

Yes. That's right too.

If we don't steal it,
we will get thrashed badly.

You're right.

Dishonest man,

I thought such great things about
you and what did you turn out to be?

At least,

you could have thought
about your innocent mother.

You, wait. I'll talk to him.

Come here.

-What happened, sister-in-law?
-Mom...

Why did you bring them
here? Have you gone mad?

I didn't bring them here.

They brought me here.

Someone gossiped about it.

Now I will abuse you slightly.

Otherwise, he will abuse
you badly and ruthlessly.

Insult him loudly.

We can't hear anything.

Don't you have any shame?

You wretched boy.

You should have been
a little thoughtful.

You have embarrassed us
in front of the whole village.

Son-in-law of dog's.

No!

Please, fix this statement
about son-in-law.

Say something else.

Son of an owl is fine.

Son of an owl.

What nonsense are you babbling?

Mister, control your wife.

Look, don't say such
things. Even if he is crazy,

he is still my son's wife's brother.

I...

Brother-in-law?

Oh, I am ruined!

You have a daughter too?

Such a big deception?

You hid this from me?

I don't have any daughter!

I am an only son.

I was born after great difficulty.

Actually, she prayed a lot for my birth.

My father passed away
while fulfilling those prayers.

I miss my dad so much.

Dad!

Yes, Son.

-Go and take care of your own son.
-Dad?

Get lost.

Dad, be sharp.

How much more sharp do
you want your dad to be?

He is already very sharp.

Will you chop potatoes with
him by making him sharper?

I will chop my brother-in-law
today not potatoes.

Shut up, Sukhi.
He is your brother-in-law.

Dad, why should we escalate this?

Let's take our Television
and leave from here.

-Yes, let's get it.
-Let's get it.

Let's take our Television.

Which Television?

My daughter-in-law brought this.

Not your daughter-in-law,

we gave it to our daughter.
They passed it along.

Tari!

Why are you quiet? Why
don't you say something?

I will see who touches my television!

It's not your Television.
We gave it to our girl.

Then what's there to fight about?

Girls are same for everyone.

I mean that daughters and
sisters belong to everyone.

But the Television doesn't
belong to everyone, son.

Look, here comes the blessed gentleman.

You are doubting me
because of what someone said?

He is our relative.

He gave his daughter a Television.

Sister, what are you saying?
I didn't give any television...

I didn't give any Television.

This is too much, Sister.

Enough, Comrade, enough.
We have had enough.

Jaila Singh, listen to me!
I didn't give any Television!

Let it be. Come on, boys, let's go.

Did you see that?

Sister, what are you doing?

You proved me to be a liar
in front of all those people.

Tell me, which Television have I given?

Listen, watch them fight
like fighter cocks now.

I have invited the matchmaker too.

Watch him get a ring on his thumb too.

You got a Television

and you forgot the matchmaker?

One shouldn't help a poor
person get a Television.

Well, that's all we needed right now.

You just completely disappointed me.

What is he saying? We are almost dead.

Look, the matchmaker is here.

Ask him the whole story.

Make some tea then.

Not tea,
I will thrash you under my knees.

-What?
-Give this.

The matchmaker asked
for tea and they grabbed him.

I don't know where they will hit me.

Look at the rings that he is wearing!

-Dad...
-Dad, stop it!

Hey!

If I keeps standing
here for a little longer,

I will go mad.

Let's take our Television and leave.

Bravo, mom's brave son.

You have made your mom so happy.

Dad, you are supposed
to pat on the back.

You are doing it on my face.

Shut up!

Why are you beating my son?

Go and beat the relatives if
you want to beat someone.

Shut up!

You have been poisoning
him since he was born.

Those relatives are our brothers.

Phaggan is my brother and Tari is yours.

Brothers are our arms, son.

They are not enemies.

Come on, girl. We won't
live with these cheats.

No, no, dad.

They are not cheats, dad.

You have become like them too?

-Come.
-Dad...

I will accept all your decisions.

But just listen to me first.

Rano and I couldn't
live without each other.

My mom wanted a Television in dowry.

But you were against dowry.

Then my friends and I made a plan.

We brought Buta's Television.
Then this mess started.

Tell me, what was I supposed to do?

I am the root-cause of all this mess.

The one who wanted a Television in dowry
not her son's happiness.

The greed for dowry is terrible.

A person who has given his daughter,
has given everything.

But I forgot
that I am someone's daughter too.

I apologize to everyone
on behalf of my family.

Dad, why are you apologising?

I am the one who made mistakes.

I apologize.

No, son.

You didn't make any mistakes.

I made you do it.

Now I am the one who will apologize.

I have made matches
and fixed many unions.

God has made this lucky union.

I am... the lucky one.

Who...

got such a great son-in-law.

The Television that created
all this mess,

where is it?

-What's this?
-Where did the Television go?

You turned out to be very impatient.

You stole it before we
could watch the film?

When did I steal it?

I have been with you since then.

Oh, so if you didn't steal it then the
Television walked itself to your house?

Then where did it go?

Here is the Television.

-Oh, God.
-Oh!

You are talking about the
Television. Here is the cable

and I don't know where
the damn antenna is.

How did he get it?

I don't know...

Pal!

What is all this?

Whatever I did was for my Aarti.

I overheard what you were saying.

Tari, by the way, I do have an idea.

We will get the Television stolen.

I will slap you across your face.

You didn't discuss
with anyone before doing this.

I didn't discuss with anyone.

Someone adviced me to
take Aarti out of the Television.

Oh, God. Who?

Break it with a rock.

Then Aarti will come out of it.

-But, Ruldu.
-Yes?

What if Aarti runs away?

Wait a minute. I have a solution.

Look at this.

As soon as she comes out,

I will grab her head.

Then grab her quickly.

"You will die"

"of snake poison."

"You have cheated your lover."

"You will be infested by worms."

I couldn't find mine, that's alright.

But his love should
have been in his arms.

It's alright. Be strong, brother.

His didn't come out of the Television

and mine ran away with
someone in the village.

Come, my brother.

"You will be infested by worms."

"You will die of snake poison."

"You have cheated your lover."

"You have cheated your lover."

They broke my daughter's
Television to pieces.

Ask your new dad to stop crying.

This wasn't a Television. It was
the cause of so much discord.

Only I know what problems
we had to face because of this.

Is this brother Tari's house?

-Yes...
-No, this isn't Tari's house.

Yes, this is the house.
Tell me, what is it? I am Tari.

Brother, I am Laddi. Pal's Aunt's son.

I have come from Dubai.

Actually, I had to go to an
island for my company's work.

A lot of time passed there.

I could not send home any letters

and how was I supposed to send money?

I just found out how you
saved my parents from eviction.

Brother, I can't thank
you enough my whole life.

But I have brought a
small present for you.

We don't want a Television!

"Some feel a very
amazing thing has arrived."

"Some say this box
has ruined the world."

"Some feel a very
amazing thing has arrived."

"Some say this box
has ruined the world."

"The antenna on the roof
has become a status symbol."

"Television people have
created such trouble."

"Just watch and let me
watch the fun of Television."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."

"Some watch Rangoli
and some watch news."

"It has made two people
fall impatiently in love."

"Some watch Rangoli
and some watch news."

"It has made two people
fall impatiently in love."

"Because of it, my eyes search for you."

"What is this gift? The
pictures are talking."

"The DD station is so much fun."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."

"Dad says I want
to buy a TV for my son."

"Mom says stop this foolishness."

"Dad says I want
to buy a TV for my son."

"Mom says stop this foolishness."

"Girls are singing songs
form Dharmendar's movies."

"I won't let them watch
this shamelessness."

"I won't let the fun of
Television work here."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."

"The day since this Television
came into the village,"

"some people are rejoicing
and some are grieving."

"The day since this Television
came into the village,"

"some people are rejoicing
and some are grieving."

"Some are learning new
ways to sow vegetables."

"Some want to listen to old songs."

"Some want to listen to new
songs. The fun of Television."

"The troubles of television,
the fun of Television."
