Jugnu.
'I will save Jugnu,'
'from Sleeman.'
Good morning, ma'am.
Good morning.
Singhal lied to us.
He never sold the Rotogravure machine.
Abrar found out.
He recently got it serviced.
Maybe he lied because he was afraid of Sleeman.
He didn't lie because he was scared, he lied for Sleeman.
Ma'am, Singhal is a very senior Circus Trooper member.
He knows more than I do.
But do you really believe he will help us?
Is anyone keeping an eye on you?
No.
That means Singhal hasn't told anyone yet,
that you tried to contact him
To enquire about the mission.
Even after last night's Circus meeting.
I think we can convince him to help us.
That's fine, ma'am.
What about the kids?
The kids are taking a keen interest In Ohri’s Book and the demon.
The thing about kids is,
the more you keep them away from something,
the more they will go after it.
I will do something.
Okay, ma'am. See you.
Yes, Sir. Another patient is dead.
Yes, I tried to suppress the matter.
But this can be an issue.
Yes.
I know, Sir. I understand.
There is always collateral damage in a greater cause.
I know.
I've been paid handsomely for this.
Yes. I will look into it.
Thank you. Good day.
It's delicious.
You were cursed because of that English officer, right?
I've heard several stories from my grandma,
where the curse can be reversed.
The curse can only be reversed in case of a big miracle.
The English villain.
Do you remember anything about him?
His name was Sleeman.
He was a wordsmith.
He was a soldier and an inventor.
He annihilated my entire tribe.
And he's been alive all these years, after drinking the Sanjeevani elixir.
Or maybe he isn't alive anymore.
Whether Sleeman is still alive or not,
but...
I will have to go, friend.
Aren't you getting late for school?
Your teacher will scold you.
Yes. I will leave.
I have an idea.
'I know you love drinking coffee.'
'But just like you look wonderful in pink,'
'you will feel just as wonderful after drinking this tea that I made for you.'
'Because you are a wonder woman.'
Silly, Laffu.
Laffu?
No tea?
Must be for me.
So, please.
And what was all that?
Why?
Didn't you like it?
I asked you first.
Nyasa, you injured your feet, so--
Ring the bell a dozen times.
So I have to get up each time and open the door?
Sorry, Nyasa.
I've seen it in films.
Girls love when they get readymade breakfast in the morning.
Breakfast in bed you mean.
And... do I look like a film heroine to you?
Really?
And you?
A hero.
What if I turn out to be the villain?
What will you do?
Shoot me?
I will take a bullet for you, Nyasa.
But I know you can never be the villain.
I can't be the heroine either.
Just tell him.
Chunky.
What is it? - Please, grandma.
Is he throwing tantrums again for drinking milk?
Papa, please tell mom.
I will.
Where is Parth?
In the morning he said, I am going with my friends for group studies.
He must be with his useless, failure friends.
Chunky!
Don't say such things about your brother!
Why do you always scold me?
Parth fails his class! Parth makes wrong friends!
Parth always stays out of the house!
He always gets a scolding at school!
He makes all the mistakes, yet I don't get a smart phone.
Chunks, what is this?
Chunky-- - Anu. Anu. Let him go.
This is no way to talk, mom.
He is angry. - Thank you.
Where is Nyasa?
That Laffu is over at Nyasa's place.
What is Laffu's angle in this?
Well, he-- - Don't tell me. I don't want to know.
He has a parallel story going on.
Tell me, Parth. What is the idea?
I will. Just come along.
Tell me already.
I will, Jugnu, just follow me.
Guys.
Jugnu.
She is Heema.
And even she belongs to a tribe.
And you know these two.
Mowgli, how are you?
Are you a tribesman too?
Heema.
Heema, please don't scare Mowgli.
He looks more prehistoric than you.
Robin, did you get it?
I did.
Look. You must wear this.
Wait a second.
Ta-dah.
Great.
Oh sorry.
Which tribe are you from?
I have never seen you around before.
Heema, stop interrogating him.
Jugnu, go get changed quickly.
It's almost time for school. Over there.
Guys, please. Don't make him feel odd.
Parth, how and where did you meet Jugnu?
The other day, in the jungle--
Oh yes, the jungle.
And you-- - The confectioner shop.
We went to the cafe after that, and the pizza and cold coffee...
You definitely missed that.
Am I right, Parth?
Mowgli, you are looking amazing.
Like a little master.
Keep this over here.
How do I wear this?
Allow me. - Heema.
See... how is it?
Now he looks like a perfect student.
But we must figure out,
how to sneak him in school.
Time for school. - Yes.
Come on. - Grab your bags.
Come, Mowgli.
Let me show you a sophisticated jail.
Come on.
This...
This school is so beautiful.
Mowgli.
Doesn't matter how good-looking jails are,
they are still a jail.
So, son, don't be delusional.
I am very happy today.
We are helping tribal kids,
to understand the importance of education.
Even if we have to smuggle them into school.
What?
Smuggle.
Okay, fine. Come on.
Jugnu, you go to the classroom. We'll attend the assembly.
I managed to sneak into school after dressing like them.
But my cover will be blown away when I sit with the rest of the kids.
I must do something.
Here.
Must do something over here.
Jugnu.
Where did he go?
Don't know. - Looking for me.
Mowgli. You fit right in.
And whoever put this cupboard here, did the right thing.
No one can see you now.
Great.
Actually, I...
Also thought the same.
If I hide here,
no one will know I am here.
Great.
Good morning, students.
Good morning, Sir.
Great. Please, sit down.
Thank you, sir.
How did the cupboard get over there?
Well, Sir, I think there is some maintenance work happening over there.
So it's been shifted here for the time being.
Sir, I had a query from the last chapter.
The cupboard is called 'Almari' in Hindi,
and Almirah in English.
So which came first? ‘Almari’ or Almirah?
Silence, guys.
What a stupid question? Please sit down.
Alright, open your books, please.
Good morning, Sir.
Good morning, everybody.
Sit down. - Thank you, Sir.
So, should we resume with yesterday's lesson?
Yes, sir.
Aryan Jain.
Tell us about land improvement.
During the 19th century,
in order to fulfil Europe's food and raw material requirements,
the British government cut down Indian jungles.
And prepared farming lands.
For that, they cut down 6.7 million hectares of jungle.
Nice.
Parth Negi.
Can you tell us during which years this happened?
Well...
1880
Well... sir...
It... was...
Parth.
Between 1937 and 1977.
Sir, it was between 1937 and... 1977.
So, that's your knowledge of history.
Robin Dangwal.
Sir, between 1880 and 1920.
Sit down.
Nice try, Parth.
You are off by only 57 years.
Second chance.
Tell us about the 1865 Forest Act.
What a disappointment?
Chanakya Negi. You tell us.
Indian Forest Act of 1865 was the act,
using which the British government could,
declare any tree-covered land as a forest,
and manage it with their loss.
Good.
Johnson George.
Mr. Johnson George.
Can you tell us when was this act amended?
Do you know the meaning of amendment?
Yes, Sir. Obviously.
Oh...
1935
What's at the back? Are the answers written there?
No, Sir. Back pain, Sir.
I play football.
Yes, I can see that.
Tell me. - Sir, 1935...
1935?
1878
You two make a good pair.
How did this amendment,
affect the lives of the tribal communities living in that area.
Enlighten us.
They became tenants in their own land.
Save this creativity for the Hindi class. =
History demands precision.
Am I right? - Yes, Sir.
What a letdown?
Not serious about my studies at all.
Both of you.
Neither in class nor in life.
Sad.
Okay, class.
Thanks to your two friends here,
there will be another test on these four chapters.
No, Sir.
Oh yes. - No, Sir. Please.
And that's not all.
These marks will be counted in the final exam.
No, sir. Please.
Oh, yes.
But, Sir. Isn't tomorrow a holiday?
Bheem Mukteshwar foundation day.
So no exams.
No exams?
Bheem Mukteshwar's biggest disappointment!
After tomorrow comes a day after tomorrow.
And congrats, so now you have one more day to prepare.
Out.
Of the class?
Out.
Okay, let's resume.
Please give us a bed.
I understand, ma'am.
But we don't have a bed available right now.
Please, ma'am.
Sorry, ma'am. Look at the queue.
We already have 59 patients waiting for bed.
Please, ma'am. Give us a bed.
His condition is deteriorating, ma'am.
I am really sorry.
Dr. Vineeta, have you seen CRC's condition?
It's pandemonium.
Yes. Isn't it wonderful?
CRC is finally getting the recognition it deserves.
Since I gave Mr. Vyas's recovery story in the news,
look... it's a houseful here.
It's a hospital, not a theatre.
Watch your tone, Dr. Arjun.
I don't believe this.
What was that in the class?
Johnson. Leave it. Let it go.
How can I let it go?
If you didn't know the right answers,
then why did you tell us the wrong dates?
The dates were right. I know.
The dates in your book are wrong.
I see. I see.
So tell me what year is this?
Leave it, Johnson. I said let it go.
He is counting.
2078
Wow.
Wow!
So you came from the future,
to ruin our present.
Look, bro,
Hooda is already on our case.
And you served us to him on a platter.
Please, Sir. Enjoy.
Leave it, Johnson. I said let it go.
Do you know how difficult a failure's life is?
How tough it can be?
There can be bigger problems than failing?
Have you ever been to school?
Ever written an exam?
You are tribal. Coming from the wild. - Enough, Johnson.
So what if he didn't go to school,
what did we achieve by going to school?
Even we didn't know the answers.
So we wouldn't have answered to Hooda.
Look... giving wrong answers is worse than not answering.
And this is all his fault.
Johnson, learn to take some responsibility.
Responsibility.
But... I gave the right answers.
See, he is taking responsibility.
He is telling the truth.
What?
He told you the years according to 'Vikram Samvat'.
Am I right, boy?
Oh yes. 'Vikram Samvat'.
Hindu calendar.
Jugnu said this is the year 2078.
According to him,
the dates he mentioned in Hooda Sir's class,
were 57 years ahead.
This locket?
Isn't this the symbol of the Kurinda Tribe?
How did you get it?
My Ija's ancestors were Kurindas.
My grandma gave her this locket,
which was given to her by her grandmother.
This is all I have of Ija with me.
I heard... what happened with the Kurinda tribe.
That white man must have been a terrible person?
He wasn't human.
He was a demon!
Troopers, the wait is over.
Captain William Sleeman is finally here.
Please, sit.
Thank you all very much for being here.
I know why you have all gathered here.
Because each one of you is fighting for your blood.
And this battle,
has been waging for 150 years.
And during these 150 years,
several people lost their life.
Dozens sacrificed themselves.
And their names are written on these walls.
I am grateful for their sacrifice.
We value their sacrifice very much.
But
once again,
I don't have any good news for you.
Some of our tests have failed.
I made some changes to the formula.
And we will test them again on people.
Hopefully, we will achieve a breakthrough.
I am here to reassure you,
and to thank you,
for your patience
and your generous contributions.
Four days from now is the 'Amrit Poornima'.
And on that night,
I am sure
we shall have the Sanjeevani.
And all the members of our family,
who are sick and fighting death,
we can save them all.
We will defeat death.
Catch.
Over here.
What are you doing.
Chunky. Over here.
Bro, that boy doesn't seem from our class.
What class? Doesn't even seem from our school.
He is Parth's friend.
He is tribal.
I wonder why he brought him to school.
Mowgli, hurry up.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to take you to class.
Tell him.
Yeah. Jugnu, hurry up.
Yes, coming. Two minutes.
Sir, here they are.
Good afternoon.
Good afternoon, sir.
Mr. Aryan and Mr. Shubhankar.
Go to your class.
Scholars.
Where is he?
Who, Sir?
The boy you smuggled in school.
Boy?
The kid who isn't a student of this school,
but he is your bomb-making teacher.
Sir, we didn't smuggle anyone inside. Right?
We were just using the washroom.
Yes, sir.
I see.
If you haven't flushed him out,
call him out.
I don't want to check the pots.
Call him.
Jugnu.
So, you always wanted to run a mobile shop?
No, I...
I wanted to become a Tik Tok star, Nyasa.
Yes...
And I also posted my first video of my standup.
But that rascal China tried to strangle my country.
And the government banned Tik Tok.
I got 10,000 likes in 24 hours.
Wow.
But if you are so talented,
you can always go to Mumbai or Delhi?
Leaving this paradise behind?
Never.
Come.
Laffu, you have been here since childhood, haven't you?
Who is the closest to you in Bheem Mukteshwar?
Grandma and her family.
Great. - Yeah.
The doctor treated my uncle Manohar for free.
In CRC.
Anamika used to send food for me every day at the hospital.
Parth and Chunky would take turns accompanying me to the hospital.
And grandma...
Nyasa...
If it wasn't for grandma,
I can't imagine what I would do after uncle Manohar passed away.
Sweet.
I want to buy a gift for grandma.
For her hospitality.
Can... you please help me?
Yes, of course. What do you want to get her?
It's a book. It's very rare.
Actually, let me show it to you.
Kurinda Tales.
I will find it, Nyasa.
Kurinda Tales.
Thank you, Laffu. - Bye.
Ma'am, what is going on here?
Let's go take a look.
Mr. Singhal.
He was okay until a couple of days ago.
What happened?
Heart attack.
Heart attack?
Seems like he was living only for his granddaughter Pihu.
As soon as she died,
he left us too.
Pihu had cancer.
She passed away last week, leaving us alone.
'Sleeman didn't even spare his own man.'
'Only three days to the auspicious full moon.'
'None of us is safe now.'
'Neither Jugnu nor Parth.'
Ma'am.
I found this in the room inside.
Does this belong to Singhal? - Yes, ma'am.
I saw him hold this while he was jogging.
But the phone is locked.
Johnson.
- Yes.
Come on now. Get over it.
Hear me out first.
Johnson, please.
Parth.
Johnson.
Take a look.
Please, he wants to say something.
Please.
Jatin was completely cured.
But the hospital didn't discharge him.
I don't know what tests they ran on him,
that Jatin...
Please come.
Jatin...
I am with her. Let's go.
Kiranji, I'll drop you home.
Your phone is beeping.
So you are the demon?
I should have known.
He is not some ordinary boy.
You are pretty smart, boy.
You had us fooled for so long.
Were you... planning on eating us?
No, Johnson. Jugnu fixed your leg the other day.
And the bomb...
He took the bombs from my bag.
To save us from Hooda, Sir.
Jugnu is a true friend.
Parth, how can we believe Jugnu is telling the truth?
Yes.
The demon's biggest power is illusion, Parth.
Don't believe me. I don't mind.
I have to go back in three days.
Wait a second, Jugnu.
Stop.
Okay, fine. You all think Jugnu is the demon.
You mean the demon that comes on the moonless night.
Everything bad happens when he comes, kills people at sight.
Right?
Wow... Johnson, Dangwal.
You guys used to say this demon is a myth.
Anyway, Jugnu's been here for 10 days.
11--
11
And what terrible things happen in Bheem Mukteshwar in 11 days?
Who was wronged?
Wait a second. Let me check.
Update from CRC...
Cancer patients are recovering.
Due to Sanjeevani.
Guys, trust me.
I've met Jugnu several times. Alone.
In the jungle. At night.
And I am alive.
Right, Parth.
Jugnu doesn't look like a demon from any angle.
Demons have the power to conceal their real form, Robin.
Jugnu saved me from Hooda.
By stealing the bombs.
If he is a demon, I don't mind.
And anyway, my father calls me a demon.
Yes, but you don't kill people on moonless night, do you?
Those are only rumours, Heema.
That's the nature of rumours,
They make you believe in things that have no existence.
And he is the one who spread that rumour.
To keep the Sanjeevani safe.
Yeah... I don't even believe in demons.
Heema.
Please.
I am not a demon.
I am the protector of Sanjeevani.
Can you show us the Sanjeevani?
Yes. Only then we will believe you!
No.
But... you must...
I get it.
Guys, we must keep Jugnu's secret a secret.
Don't let anyone find out.
Will he actually be gone on the Full Moon night?
Planning to study outside today?
We have a test on Monday, grandma.
But I don't see you studying.
What is the point,
when I don't remember anything that I study.
Grandma, sometimes I feel,
that I am a big-time loser.
And I will be a loser all my life.
I can never do anything worthwhile.
Don't say that, Parth.
Let me tell you a story.
Maybe you will find your answer.
Come, sit.
There was a kingdom situated on the banks of the Saryu river.
Shivnagar.
King Mahendra Singh,
was a compassionate and diligent ruler.
And he always thought in the interest and security of his kingdom.
But he had one thing lacking.
He wasn't a good archer.
He was worried,
if Shiv Nagar was ever attacked,
Hey may never be able to protect the city.
Mahendra would work very hard.
Every day, he would take his bow and arrow,
and aim at the tree in front of his palace.
But most of his arrows would miss the mark.
Every day he would diligently aim at the tree.
But only a couple of arrows would find their mark.
He would be disappointed,
but never gave up his efforts to become a good archer.
One day, the king was sitting
under a tree with his wise minister Surya Kumar,
when a couple of birds
descended from the tree with juicy fruits in their beaks.
They gifted those fruits to the king.
They praised his bravery and greatness.
And they flew back after saluting him.
The king was shocked.
When he asked Surya Kumar the reason for this praise,
the minister replied...
You worked hard with true intentions.
And never gave up due to fear of failing.
You weren't satisfied with the couple of arrows that found their mark,
and kept working hard.
You were sad for the arrows that missed their mark.
But those arrows protected the birds on this tree from insects and serpents,
who could have harmed them.
Your arrows that missed their mark,
were useful to someone.
Fate helps those who stay diligent even after they don't succeed.
Perseverance and persistance with good intentions without giving up.
Arrows from such a king did good to others.
It's important to be diligent and have good intentions.
Understood.
Yes, grandma.
There will be several hurdles in the way,
people will also make fun.
But we should keep fighting for what's right.
Good boy.
So what paper do you have tomorrow?
History. - History.
Okay, start preparing.
Take it.
And all the best.
Thank you, grandma.
