The river Ganga by my village.
Staying immersed in it from noon to dusk.
I would take a dip in the water,
This time when I close my eyes, and stop breathing.
This time when I close my eyes
and my breathing stops
Immerse me in that same Ganga.
Pass it. Pass it. Hit it. Hit it.
Give it here. Give it here.
When I was a kid,
I would pretend to cry.
As a grownup,
I pretend to smile.
It's not true that it doesn't make a difference to me.
But when I was offered tea among these upper caste people,
my focus was only on the tea.
I never did notice the chipped earthen cup.
Why did you think,
that a boy from our caste,
can share a meal with your caste at the same feast?
This is not normal in these parts.
Then let's make it the new normal, Lablabiya.
Why are you kneading the dough?
I am there. Get some rest.
I am there to do all the chores.
I said get some rest. Stop it.
Nibha, massage aunty's feet.
Otherwise again his son will complain,
that we treat her like a servant.
I beg you.
What happened?
If you care so much for her,
then why don't you take your mother with you?
from past 24 years we are looking after her
Nobady came to see her
You don't have to stay here any longer, mom.
You're coming with me to Delhi.
Right after the wedding...
I...am not going anywhere.
This is my home.
My family.
And who am I?
I spent half my life without you.
Father never told me, but...
...you could've come looking for me.
I didn't know about you,
but you knew I existed.
You could've cared to find out,
where he took your 3-year-old boy?
Why didn't you look for me, mom?
Mother's silence had several questions lurking behind them.
Every question had a rift in it.
On the other side of this rift was my past,
and on this side was my present.
I couldn't change my past,
so I started changing my present.
I explained to Aatish that he should ask Reena...
- Hello. - What did you tell Aatish?
Reena?
When did I say I don't want to get married?
Why did you butt your nose in this?
Hello, Reena. Tell me what happened?
- Where are you? - Did I say talk to Aatish?
Why did you send him here?
You've made a mess of things.
Hello.
Hello, Reena, where are you?
Reena, what...
Gave a tight slap to the shopkeeper.
Give me that thing that causes cancer.
Aatish. What did you tell Reena?
You were going to talk to her.
Brother, what I said to my future wife,
is my personal matter.
You continue with the joke.
Where are you going, brother?
Brother. Where are you going?
The bike is engaged.
Shankar! You need this bike!
Aatish, is this the way?
Is that the way to talk to your older brother?
Does that mean he can do whatever he wants?
Remember how he yelled at you on the terrace.
He's very annoying.
I warned everyone.
Don't invite him.
He wants his share. His share.
If I lose my mind...
If blow my cool,
I'll give him what he deserves.
I let his father go,
but I'll chop him to pieces, believe me.
Calm down, Pathak sir.
He didn't mean what he said.
Bring my meal.
These things are common within a family.
- Isn't it? - Yes, of course.
There's a wedding in the house.
Focus on the wedding to avoid any hurdles.
Give me.
Forget everything else.
Where's my water?
Did you forget your own rule?
Shut up!
I'll slap you till you're black and blue.
Bitch telling me about rules!
Go get my water!
Nirmal sir.
Nirmal.
Every time I see you,
I feel really glad.
Can I see, Reena?
We need to talk.
No hello, no greetings, nothing.
- Pandey. - Yes.
Take her to see Reena.
- No. - Why?
Because now he's Reena's brother-in-law.
You cannot talk to her directly now.
Meeting her is out of the question.
These customs and traditions are weird.
Leave it. Come.
Talk to me.
Tell me.
What is the matter?
Do you know what the matter is?
Reena doesn't want to get married.
Shut up, idiots!
You guys are laughing out so loud.
Can't you see we're having a conversation?
So Nirmal, what were you saying?
Look Nirmal, the turmeric ceremony is tomorrow morning,
and the wedding procession leaves in the evening.
Let the wedding get over,
after that we'll have a long conversation,
and answer all your questions personally.
But until then...
Let me pour you a single malt.
Strange.
No goodbyes, Or so long.
Sister-in-law.
Find a groom for her after Aatish's wedding.
We'll send her off too.
I don't want to get married.
I want to study and become a Collector.
Even we wanted to study and become a Collector.
Get married first,
and then you can be whatever your in-laws tell you to be.
Still awake.
Haven't put up the mosquito net, how can you sleep?
Light the coil.
I'm sleeping downstairs.
By the way, when are you going back?
Aatish, this is wrong.
Who's right, who's wrong,
only time will decide.
But you're my guest.
I apologise if anything was lacking in my hospitality.
"Lord Krishna...came in my dreams."
"My heart cannot prancing."
"Lord Krishna...came in my dreams."
"The Lord made my heart skip a beat."
"My heart cannot prancing."
"Lord Krishna...came in my dreams."
A girl is getting married against her will.
And the entire village is celebrating it.
What kind of people are they, mom?
The purpose of your trip has been fulfilled.
Just come back now.
I really don't have a good feeling about this.
Even I'm not feeling good about this, mom.
Today's Nibha will be tomorrow's Reena.
And this Reena will be the future Santoshi.
And what happened with Santoshi,
I'll never forgive ourselves, mom.
Hello.
I spotted sister-in-law Reena getting on the train.
What?
Brother.
This is terrible.
Why is sister-in-law trying to run away?
Today is the wedding. This can be catastrophic.
But where is Reena?
I saw her climbing in this compartment.
Reena.
Reena, listen.
Reena.
Reena, wait.
So this was your plan.
This is the solution.
How far can you run?
They will find you.
Listen, you've courage,
then show some more.
Let's go and face them.
I'll stand by you.
Just say that you don't want to get married...
Do you think I haven't told him?
Papa knows everything.
Please don't interfere in my matter.
You've no business here.
Please leave.
Trust me, Reena,
running away will do you no good.
Then what will?
What do you know about me?
We're four sisters.
Father has no son.
He just wants this burden off his chest.
All my life I did what he said.
Don't wear such clothes, don't dance like this,
when you go, when you return?
I was so afraid that I never fell in love.
Whenever I try to express my feelings,
he stares at me intimidatingly.
Like the way your brother does.
Like every man does in this village.
I kept getting intimidated,
and he kept intimidating me.
I've had enough.
If I don't run now,
I'll get married in the evening.
They will give him permission to rape me mentally and physically.
Reena.
Brother.
Mother fucker.
Brother, no.
No. No, brother. Please.
Let him go.
No, brother.
Please. Let him go.
No, brother.
Please. Let him go.
No, brother.
Brother Aatish.
- Shankar. - Brother Aatish.
Shankar.
- Brother Aatish. - Do this step for me.
Listen to me, brother Aatish.
Why aren't you smoking weed?
It's my wedding.
Why aren't you smoking weed? You're my brother.
Listen to me, brother.
Do this step.
What?
Take a puff.
Smoke hardly
Take a puff.
Leave it now.
Come on.
Do this step.
This one is much better.
Why aren't you listening?
Don't you get it?
Brother Nirmal eloped with sister-in-law Reena!
Rascal...got high in one smoke only.
Come here. Come here.
What did he say?
Pandey saw it with his own eyes.
They were in the same compartment.
Let it go.
She is your daughter.
Your child.
Forgive her.
If I hadn't helped her elope,
she would've done something to herself.
Forgive her thinking that she's still alive.
I never asked you for anything.
Never disobeyed any orders.
Let her go.
She doesn't want to get married.
For my sake...
Forgive her for my sake.
Where is my gun?
What is this? What is this?
Genda...what happened?
What are you doing?
No... You will kill someone.
I won't let you take the gun.
I will shed his blood.
I won't let you take the gun. No!
What are you looking at?
What are you staring at?
What is it?
Corrupting the family.
- Get out. - No, brother. Please.
I beg of you. Please let her go.
I beg you, leave sister-in-law alone.
- Leave me. - Let go of my leg.
- Give me my gun. - I won't give you the gun.
I won't give you the gun.
Even if you kill me, I won't give you the gun.
I will kill everyone.
Today I will kill her.
Stay away!
If you hurt her I will not spare you.
Even I get furious. I can get angry too.
Come, aunty.
What are you doing?
Brother, where are you going?
Brother Aatish.
Shankar, hop on.
Hop on.
What are you doing?
Brother...
What did I say?
Your Laxman is always behind you.
Didn't I tell you?
You left me so far behind.
Didn't notice that you're a Raavan in the guise of Ram.
I was out of my mind.
I won't spare you.
Where is it?
Brother, what are you doing?
Aatish.
- Aatish, what are you doing? - Leave me.
Don't stop me.
Nirmal brother.
Did you feel the pain?
What are you doing brother?
I am also in pain
Why...
Why did you do it?
Why?
I'll chop you to pieces, Nirmal Pathak.
I won't spare you.
Father said don't invite him.
But I said 'welcome to Buxar'.
Welcome to Buxar.
I had lost my mind.
Chop you down.
I'll chop you down.
Chop you down.
Brother, how can you forget?
I welcomed you Buxar.
Now you're leaving without me.
You called me Ram.
I'm trying to live up to the name.
I've packed my bags.
Come back home.
