Get lost

Those two sisters were like
India and Pakistan

children of the same mother

but thirsty for each other's blood

Roses are red

Violets are blue

If you like rhymes

I've cucumbers for you

Fresh cucumbers!

What are you looking for?

Lost something?



Or was it stolen?

You bumbling fool

looking for your smoke?

Well, well, well!

You witch!
Have you no shame?

Mind your language,
I'm your older sister

My shoe will talk to you,
you cold-hearted bitch!

You wretch!

Out of my way!

Ouch!

Move your hands faster,
we need a tonne by sunset

Lazy bum

Bapu!

Bapu!

Bapu

What is it?

The war has begun

Where?

In school

What the hell!

You good-for-nothings!

Stop it!

Come home right now

You witches!

Stop it

That's enough!
Stop it!

Come home

Don't stop until you get home!

And you...

you are the root cause

Everyone clap!

Cat got your tongue now?

I'm tired of asking.
What happened back there?

She stole

Stole what?

Spit it out, pig-face

Bapu, even she stole

Stole what?

Start talking, you witch

Stole what, you good-for-nothings?

Cigarette?

You good-for-nothings

smoking at this age?

Smoking at this young age
will scar you for life

You won't be able to have kids

But Ramju's aunt gave birth
to a football team

and she's been a smoker since she was nine

That's why she coughs day and night

Look at this

Here

Look at this photo

Smoking causes cancer

It kills!

But Bapu...

you're still here,
alive and kicking

You witches...

Run

Wait!

Wait

I said wait

Wait till I get you

I said wait

Wait!

Patel...

Yes?

Did you see my daughters?

Yeah, they ran towards the lake

Your father looked very angry

Here

Have a Cad-bury

You aren't eating anything

Have a Cad-bury

Bapu will break your bones,
if you go home

What do you suggest?

Stay here tonight

With you?

Sure, you won't do anything?

Not at all

We'll sleep, that's all

That's it?

Sleep?

You think we're dumb?

Of course, not

Who will you sleep with

Me, or

her?

Or, both?

What happened?

Hey wait...

Listen

Hear me out, darling

Tell me

I will marry you

Happy?

Now will you stay?

In decades you haven't found a bride

Know why?

Because the whole county knows
what a pervert you are!

She maybe a fool but you're smart

Damn you!

You are a pervert widower and
will remain one all your life

I'm really scared

Should have thought before fighting

I started it?

Who flung the shoe first?

Who stole the smoke?

I would have readily shared it with you

Spare me the drama, please!

Welcome back, my princesses

I promised your mother
on her deathbed

that I would leave no stone unturned
in your upbringing

But I guess, I've failed

Now...

Now there's only one solution left

No more school from tomorrow

- No, Bapu
- Okay

Fine

Okay, Bapu

No, Bapu,
I want to study

I want to start a business

What will you do with an education?

I'll become a teacher

And start a school of my own

And you

what business will you do?

Bapu...

Milk

I'll start a dairy

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Duffer!

Tell her to stop

Let's flip for it

Dipper...

Get me a stone

Wet...

means school

Dry...

means home

Dry

Yay! It's dry!

I'm so happy
the dry side is up!

I want to go to school, Bapu

I want to study

There's no need to cry

Don't cry

- Let go...
- Relax...

With time, their enmity increased

and with it, my source of entertainment

Cracker to the left
Cracker to the right

Boom, boom goes the cracker

What should I name my dairy?

How about Black Dairy?

You won't blush, will you?

Elbows you
Knees you too

Elbows you
Knees you too

Explodes in the head
Bang, bang goes the cracker

Cracker to the left
Cracker to the right

Boom, boom goes the cracker

boom goes the cracker

boom goes the cracker

Chutki...

Give me my towel back

Come out and take it

I can't step out naked!

Say sorry

In your dreams!

Suit yourself, my dear sister

Chutki!

Meeting daily over a brawl

Meeting daily over a brawl

Wrestling with thoughts

free-for-all

Dear God,
how long must I suffer this witch?

Help me find a man before she finds one

Oh God, please spare me from this bitch

I can't wait to grow up and get married

Cracker to the left
Cracker to the right

Boom, boom goes the cracker

Boom goes the cracker

Boom, boom goes the cracker

Ballu...

Come Ballu...

Hurry up

It's a rare sight today

What a view

But she's not to be seen

Who?

The hot one

my darling Champa Kumari

Wonder where she is

Right behind you,
you pervert

You dipshit

Who's that?

Where do you think you're going?

Stop!

I keep my hubby hidden in purdah

Your hubby roams the streets naked

It seems you've stolen
more than you need

Who are you?

A man

Why are your eyes popping out then?

Never seen a girl before?

Of course, I have

but none as gritty and spiteful as you

Bloody son of a...

I'll slap you so hard,
you'll land in the neighbouring state, get it?

Got it

But now, let go of the hay...

and start walking

Sure, I'll walk away, jackass

but the hay goes with me

Stop me if you can

Is that so?

I'll chop off your head and
sow it in the field

Next year, little heads in your likeness
will sway in the wind

Take it easy... I was kidding

This isn't even my field,
take what you want

But move the sickle away, please

Please

How could you?

I could have easily been hurt

Listen

I'll help you with the hay,
it looks heavy

Here we go

Bapu...

I'm not your Bapu, I'm Vishnu

Let go of me

Got you!

and you will now do as I say

What?

Sing a song

And if I don't?

Then I'll ride you like this until sunrise

Let me go

Sing

There’s your hubby, here’s mine

Go on

Yours a scoundrel,
mine an angel

Go

You're free

You forgot the hay

It's my friend's field

Listen

Hold on

Listen...

Take this

Sorry...

Here

When will I see you again?

Never

It's the village fair next week

Want to come?

I will wait for you, darling!

No, Bapu...

This paltry amount won't help anymore

There's a new forest officer now

and he is demanding 400,000

No more, no less

A bribe of 400,000?

But you'll get a five-year contract

imagine what you'll earn by then?

A cool 1,000,000!

That is a profit of 600,000

But...

so much at one go?

You figure it out

You have a month

Either you pay up in 30 days
or leave the quarry

Give me a minute

Is there another way?

Of course there is

There, standing in person

Marry one of your daughters to him

and solve this problem forever

My daughters are my world!

They are not cattle that

I can hand over to that pervert widower

Your quarry, your daughters,
your choice

Sir, when can I except to get the loan?

Look, amounts over 100,000
get processed by the head office

They will send a team
to value your property

they'll go back...

Say about three to four weeks

Okay?

Okay, sir

With sarees from Chandni Chowk,
you'll look like a Cadillac, my love

Sisters and mothers,
final chance

A slip free with every saree

Special discount for unmarried girls,
a slip free with every saree

- Ask him
- You ask him

No, you ask

Sister, how can I help you?

How much for that one?

Which one?

The red one

300 rupees

Oh God! What's so special about it?

It's imported

Your husband will surely like it

It will fit you perfectly

Don't just take my word, try it on

Should I get it for you?

You shameless jerk!

How dare you say such disgusting things
and wink at me?

You jackass!

What happened?

He's winking at us

What's wrong?

What happened, Dipper?

He was winking at me

No, in fact he's called Dipper because

his blinking is involuntary

He has a heart of gold

Come on, let's go

If it weren't for you,
they would have killed me

May God bless you
with an amazing boyfriend

Thank you

He already has

My English teacher
from Indian Army, Vishnu

Hi, Dipper

Genda keeps talking about you

Nice to meet you

Good shop

He looks like a papaya

Check that guy out on the left

On the left

He's a squished banana

Now who's that?

Your future brother-in-law

Indeed, Chutki's boyfriend is a soldier

Yes!

Once he's done with his training,
he'll marry her and take her to the city

get her educated
and make her a teacher

What about your dairy now?

Down the drain it goes

Lord have mercy

Sorry

Excuse me, do you have a match box?

Wait

Don't get scared,
I won't do anything

What are you scared of?

Move

Don't run,
I won't beat you up

Don't get scared

Wait, what are you scared of?

Oh, my foot!

Oh God!

What happened?

I don't know

You've twisted your ankle

So, straighten it

I'm not a doctor

Then what are you?

Engineer

Junior Engineer

What's your name?

Jagan

How's it?

It's a good name

I meant your foot

Cucumber

Lady finger

Once you try the lady finger dish I make

You'll commit sui... suicide!

- Really?
- Sure

I'd rather kill someone than
eat lady fingers

It says here that I'll kill someone

Sweet gold ring

Miss Marigold

Keep it away from me!

Take it away!

I will throw up

What's wrong, darling?

It's only milk

Darling, milk reminds me of a wretch

Who?

What do you call a female dog in English?

Cheers!

What is it?

This reminds me of a childhood dream

What's that?

Someday I would like to
own a dairy

sell milk, cheese, butter

But dreams don't come true, do they?

No...

If someone kisses your eyes
then those dreams come true

You're so cheesy

Bapu, a letter

After due consideration of your application,
the Rajasthan Co-operative Bank

regrets to inform you
that your loan application has been rejected

I'm down to my last resort

I'll go and ask your uncle's help

Take care of the house

I'll be gone for a week

You better not fight

One

two

and three!

Uncle Chaubey

Jagan

How's it going?

It's been ages

Your wife?

soon to-be

Have you passed grade six?

Then you have to
live here for a year

You'll have to become a member
of the co-operative society first

and then buy a special breed of cows

The Red Sindhi cow

Buy the cows and
I'll take care of the rest

How much does a cow cost?

200,000 rupees

Okay

Let's go

200,000?

It's okay

200,000?

Where do we get it from?

Not where, but when.
That's the question to ask

Ask

When?

After our marriage

My grandpa set-up a trust for me
as a wedding gift

Trump said,
"But if I get elected President

we will make Ameri--"

Wow!

Sorry

Here

Very good

Eat this

Village ass, foreign sass

Here comes the village hag

from every angle worse than a drag

I've cut my own hair

not your father's fortune

And did I steal your mom's bra?

Mom must be in heaven,
crying over your exploits

You're still here,
so feast on these!

Shameless!

Come here

Witch can't even cover herself up

Regular 100, Recliner 150...

Will Salman Khan take his pants off
in this movie?

You bumbling fool!
At a night show?

I see

This is Chutki's--

How much for recliners?

I don't want your money

What I want is a photo

with my brother-in-law

Dipper!

Future brother-in-law

How about a selfie

Badku, you stand in the middle

with Salman Khan behind us

The more you see it,
the more you'll hurt

That's enough

Throw this in the trash

Unbelievable!

Wait, you coward!

Witch!

Hey, you!

Get up

What do you think you're doing?

- I'll help--
- You get lost!

You're coming home, now!

What should I do with you two?

I have a million things to deal with

First the bank rejected my loan

then uncle refused to help

and here you two are at war

She stole my clothes

Your clothes?

From where?

Bapu, gift from a guy

She's having an affair

And what about you?

You look ridiculous...
Why did you cut your hair?

Both of you are getting out of hand...

I'll have to
get you married off

One of you will get married next month

Prepare yourselves

No, Patel, that's too much

Oh it's nothing

I'll forget my way home

Then stay here tonight

This is as good as your home

Right?

Here you go

Throw it at that forest officer's face

No, no

Don't count

I think it's more

And I say it's less

No amount is good enough
to marry your precious daughters

Bapu...

Badki or Chutki?

I can't tell

I love both equally

And I too

Bapu, I have an idea

Let's flip for it

I can't find a coin,
let's use a note

Wet means...

Badki

And dry, Chutki

No...

Not tonight

Bapu, take care

Dipper

Tell me something

why do my daughters
hate each other so much?

Why are they at war constantly?

The same reason why
India and Pakistan are always at war

What?

A load of crap!

It's been more than 70 years

yet they find new reasons to fight

The firing and shelling at the border never stops

Bapu has disappeared?

Bapu

What's this?

Advance

Advance for?

The future Mrs. Patel

The elder one
always gets married first

How convenient!
You use me when necessary...

otherwise you walk all over me?

Of course!

Well, that's the tradition

One slap and you'll forget all traditions

Bring it on!

With pleasure

- I know you have a major crush on Patel
- Yeah, I do

Everything you've ever done
has been to lure Patel...

you dropped out of school,
your silly haircut

Don't pin it on me

I've seen you do stuff
to grab his attention

But now he'll have eyes only for you!

Here

Take these knives

Kill me right here, right now

What's the matter?

Listen carefully

Either there is a marriage or a funeral

We will flip for this later

Wet side?

Either

If wet, then Badki

Good morning, Mrs. Patel

Go on, laugh at my misery

After all, I am fortune's fool

You know you can make a call

Call who?

Your boyfriend

And tell him what?

Duh!

Ask him

if he truly loves you,
he should take you away

If I elope,
Bapu will commit suicide

Bapu...

Higher

I'll rather not say it

What's done is done

What do you mean?

Well, I could be mistaken

About what?

I thought the dry side was up

but somehow it changed

It's said the younger child is
the apple of the parents' eyes

And your father proved it

I'll post this on Facebook,
it'll go viral in no time

Viral?! Bapu will give me an aspirin and
get me married

Not that viral

Fine, let's file a police report

No, I don't want to do that

Tell me how much do you love me?

More than all the stars in the sky

that much

More than all the mobile phones in the world

that much

And you?

More than all the buffaloes in the world

that much

More than all the milk in the world

that much

There's your hubby,
here's mine

There's your hubby, here's mine

Yours a scoundrel,
mine an angel

I keep mine hidden in purdah
Yours roams the streets naked

There's your hubby,
here's mine

Yours a scoundrel,

What?

Numbskull!

Mine eats daal-baati soaked in ghee
Yours wanders hungry in the fields

There's your hubby, here's mine

Yours a scoundrel,
mine an angel

Yours a petty thief
Mine steals the heart

Yours a petty thief
Mine steals the heart

Yours flirts with his sis-in-law
Dancing to her tunes

With a plate full of offerings,
begs of Kali

The world’s greatest liar

There's your hubby,
here's mine

Yours a scoundrel,
mine an angel

Let me show you the moves

Wow Mrs. Patel!

My hubby a Banarsi paan
Yours the moon on a new-moon night

My hubby a Banarsi paan
Yours the moon on a new-moon night

Yours a total fraud
A rolling stone

Cockeyed to boot
I thumb my nose at him

Shifting loyalties every moment

There's your hubby,
here's mine

Yours a scoundrel,
mine an angel

I keep mine hidden in purdah
Yours roams the streets naked

There's your hubby,
here's mine

Yours a scoundrel,
mine an angel

You left that milk glass?

Yes

I was going to feed the dogs
but then, why not you

The dogs will have a feast from tomorrow

As I won't be here

Here, I'll give you a hand

So much love?
Are you serious?

No, I'm kidding

Are you alright?

Why?

You're talking nonsense

Forgive me if I ever hurt you

Look after yourself

Badku

Hurry up

Let's go

Wake up Badki,
get dressed

Badki

Bapu!

Bapu

- Relax, Bapu...
- Forgive me, Patel

Not at all, there's nothing to forgive

Sit down

Someone get water

- Not for me
- It's for me

In fact, I'm embarrassed

you've done so much for your girls

You let them do as they wanted

You didn't marry again

The entire village knows
of your sacrifice

No one deserves a daughter like Badki

What now, Patel?

A wedding

as it was meant to be

The toss sealed Badki's fate

so I kept mum

In fact, I wanted to marry Chutki

Huh?

Genda...

Tell me if you object

There's a world of a difference

between Badki and Chutki

Badki's heart is

cold as iron!

Whereas Chutki's is

24 carat gold!

Bapu

Listen

I'm willing to marry Chutki

And I'm certain that

she won't betray you like Badki

She dare not even speak
in your presence

Now that's true respect

And that's an ideal daughter

The perfect daughter!

Don't be stingy with the cashews

You knew, right?

Mrs. Patel

What are you talking about?

That the witch would run away

And how would I know that?

She couldn't have done it herself

You're lying

I swear on Bapu

It won't matter to you if Bapu dies

Swear on me

I swear on you

Good!

Now you will be responsible for my death!

I'd rather kill myself than marry that pervert

"I'll kill myself"

We need some more lights here

Leave the chair,
the groom is on his way

What are you doing?

Have you lost it? Stop it!

Why should I?

Because the roof is weak
and you are fat

You'll only end up with broken bones

Liar!

Fine! Give it a try

Go on

You're heavy as a rhino!

I told you, you buffalo!

Are you going to limp at your wedding?

There won't be a wedding

Are you sure?

Sure

Not even with him?

Marigold...

Darling...

Run with me

No, darling

Wrong!

Let us run away

Hey, President Trump!
Correct her English later

Now scram!

Yes, you're right

Chutki?

Chutki?

Open the door

Bapu...

Chutki...

Are you okay?
Open the door

Chutki?

Chutki, open the door

Not her too!

She must be nearby.
Someone go after her

Drop the act, Bapu

Or I'll shove this sword
down your throat!

I have nothing to do with this

Explain it to the village council

I'll make your life a living hell

if it's the last thing I do!

Hell!

Let's go back

The wedding's over!
Switch the lights off

You were paid to perform

Start playing

Grandma!

Vishnu!

When did you get back?

Just now

How are you?

Who is this?

First, give us your blessings

Alright, but who is she?

She's your daughter-in-law

You keep pestering me to get married

I got married last night

You as well?

As in?

Badku... come out

Look at what has happened!

Your brother also got married

You too?

- You didn't tell me
- Neither did you

I'll get sweets for you

Where's your wife from?

Uriya

She's also from Uriya

Where in Uriya?

Behind the water tank

My wife's house is also there

Which house?

The blue one

Even her house is blue

- Father's name?
- Shanti

Shanti Bhushan?

When Atal Bihari Vajpayee
met Pervez Musharraf in Agra

he said, "The bottomline is...

we can choose our enemies
but not our neighbours...

we can choose our relations
but not our relatives."

I've been cheated

Taken for a ride

Bapu has betrayed me

He took my money...

and helped his daughters elope

I spared no expense

cocktail party, lavish dinner

music, decoration, the works

I demand justice

right here right now,
in front of the whole village

Justice has been served

The couples are adults

Does the council accept
their clandestine wedding?

Yes

-You all agree?
-Yes

Yes

What about my money?

If that is settled

I'll be very grateful

The money...

I'll repay it little by little

No!

Not little by little

I want my money at one go

and I want it right now

You'll get it

The girls haven't married into a poor family

Am I right?

- Huh?
- They agree

It will be sent to you,
with interest

I'll drop by in the evening

Get lost!

One last thing...

they belong to
different castes, therefore

their respective families must approve

Grandma

do you accept?

Yes

Shanti Bhushan?

I want to have a word with my daughters

Can you survive under one roof?

You'll make life miserable for each other

Think about it, you still have time

Bapu...

my husband has got a new job

So, I will move to the city

And my husband's army training is finished

so now it's posting and shifting

No

Give me your word

the one who initiates the fight
will be responsible for my death

I love you, Bapu

I won't fight anymore,
you have my word

Saying it in English,
doesn't make my love any less

I won't fight anymore

you have my word

Let's have music!

I will repay you,
little by little

My salary barely covers my expenses

Have patience

as soon as I get promoted,
I'll call for you

Families are not allowed in war zones

Trust me, I had no idea that
I'd be posted in Kashmir

And what about my dairy?

The money from grandfather's trust

is gone

Where?

To repay Bapu's loan

Bapu himself didn't know,
how long it would take him to repay the loan

The fate of the two sisters was
stuck to each other like a coin to a magnet

Until Bapu's loan got repaid

they had to be away from their husbands

and live together under one roof

Repeat after me

A for?

Aalu

B for?

Bhindi

C for?

Chutney

- D for?- Darwaza

- E for?- Emlee

Who sleepy?

Chutki!

Out!

Their dreams would blow up like balloons

Their ambitions remained unfulfilled
even in their dreams

Due to Bapu's promise
and accepting their fate

they decided on a ceasefire

But this decision proved too costly...

They were alive, so to say, but

their life was a living hell

Raj Laxmi lottery

Turn rupees five to 500,000!

Dipper!

Dipper!

Dipper

You bumbling fools,
you are still alive?

You've put on so much weight

Like you care!

Not once did you check on us

I myself was in trouble

What?

Working with a shaman

selling magical concoctions

To cure what?

To help the old feel virile again

And?

Two old men died

The shaman ran away...

and I ended up in prison

Bapu has sent this

installment towards the loan

It seems too little

Bapu is in a mess, Grandma

The officer who took the bribe
got transferred

And the new one is awful

Alright

Bapu's loan will not be paid in this lifetime

Come on

Here's a lottery ticket

If you win, the loan is cleared

Yeah, right

Take this

deposit in the bank tomorrow

Okay, Grandma

Listen, it's the holy month

I want to go to Kashi to offer prayers

I don't think I'll get leave

And I have day and night training

Fine, I'll go on my own!

Come, let's go to school

- Bye
- Bye

Sm-art phone

The world at your fingertips

Any movie, any song, on demand

and video call,
don't even get me started on that

You can almost touch the person

- Really?
- Check it out

Impressive

Look at this

Look at this!
51 inches!

Satellite dish with 669 channels

sports, TV series, movies, spirituality
around the clock

Look at this!

News from around the world

eclipses, storms and other celestial events

Look at this

News of England,
America, Russia...

Look at this!
Your favourite Salman Khan

Look at Katrina Kaif's moves

Have both of you lost it?

Stop it!
Stop this farce!

Stop it

Take a look at yourselves

Your vacant eyes

and your face

like the emergency room
of a public hospital!

Why are you torturing yourselves?

What is this?

Life has become unbearable

it hurts

If it weren't for my daughter,
I would have taken my own life

It wouldn't come to that

If I hadn't promised Bapu

I would have killed you by now

This is our life now

put up with each other
and suffer every moment

And your dreams?

Dairy...

School...

It's over

flushed down the drain

Along with my dairy

There's nothing we can do now

We have no option left

You do

What?

Partition

Partition of India and Pakistan

Who is Pakistan?

Your sister

That wicked witch

My dear beautiful India

But I promised Bapu

You promised not to fight
with each other

but what stops you from making others fight

Partition is impossible

Not a chance!

You've seen

the brothers have a very strong bond

A woman is capable of turning
the strongest of bonds into crap

father and son, brothers,
any relation, you name it

over in the blink of an eye

Once the fields are divided

sell your share and fulfil your dreams

That won't be possible

Why not?

Because the value of the field is 200,000

I can get 400,000

From?

Such a cute couple

Where is the bride from?

Nepal

How much did you pay?

Half

How?

Thanks to the exchange rate

Why are you here now, Dipper?

To apologise

To apologise

No

Never

I'll never forgive you

What if I break up their household?

Not even then?

How?

You'll have to buy their field

For how much?

Twice the rate

Too much?

My humiliation is still raw

I'll even pay three times the rate

Get it?

Feed me!

Open the door!

Open the door!

Come out!

What is that?

What?

Come out

Look! What's this?

What?

Disgusting!

Your little one's pot of gold

Does it say it belongs to my daughter?

It must be yours

Are you blind?

Look...

See the guava seeds

So?

My daughter had grapes yesterday

And mine had apples

Has anyone ever had apples
in your family?

- And you have in your dreams
- Watch your step

- Don't insult my family
- You don't

What’s wrong?

This bitch is creating a scene

- Watch your tongue
- Why should I?

Because my husband is an officer

and not a low ranking sepoy

who only salutes his superiors all day

My husband is a paratrooper.
He
jumps from airplanes!

In English it's called an
"aeroplane"

And officers like your husband are a dime a dozen

Did you hear that?

She's calling you worthless

Worthless!

Say something

Yes, worthless!

You witch, your husband is worthless!

Vishnu

Jagan

Come inside

I can't believe how you were fighting

Like cats and dogs

Nobody will believe that you are sisters

Miss Marigold...

listen to me very carefully

I won't tolerate this
kind of behaviour anymore

Understand?

Don't let the family fall apart, please

No, Grandma, please don't cry

We've spoken to both of them

Don't cry

As long as America is present here,
we can't do anything

America?

Grandma!

Until she is here all efforts are futile

Nobody has a solution for America

Except for me

Is there any direct train
to Kashi from here?

Who is going to Kashi?

I have to perform my mother's last rites

I thought I'd leave from here

Thank God!

You have four days

Before the old lady returns

the border should be drawn

Dipper

Give me a minute

Best of luck!

My heart is beating,
keeps on repeating

I'm waiting for you

Where were you, darling?

Feeding the buffaloes

This time?

Yes

Darling, did someone say something?

What's wrong?

What do you care?

If I die today
you'll get another darling tomorrow

Will you tell me what happened?

Your sister-in-law

She cuts the good grass
and leaves the rotten stuff for me

The buffalo has been
hungry since morning

If I object, she hits me

her husband threatens too

He threatens?

What did he say?

He said, she will do as she wishes

It's better to die than to live like this

I'll speak to my brother tomorrow

You don't cry

Okay?

God promise?

God promise

Don't fall for her sob stories

Your wife is lying

Brother

What?

Our fields are joined

So?

Control your wife

And if not?

What will you do about it?

Hit me?

Raise your hand at me?

That's up to you

Junior!

Watch your mouth!

I don't need to learn from you

You hear that?

Shut up, will you!

You're responsible for this

I'm responsible?

You're blaming me?

And that ox’s wife...

she's a saint?

You hear that?

She called you an ox

Do you know what the villagers
call your husband?

That he's a wuss

- You wretch--
- Sister-in-law!

Junior!

Satisfied?

Congratulations!

We are back in two days

Time for phase two

Praise the goddess

- Okay
- Ta-ta

Please don't cry

Now celebrate

You've taken away a piece of my soul

The one responsible for this...

will suffer

Suffer!

It's just a phone

I'll get you another one

Let's go inside

come on

My phone...

English or Hindi?

English

In all these years

I have never
seen a TV in such bad shape

This can't be fixed

Sorry

Tickets?

Here, keep them

Are you happy now, bitch?

This is karma

As you sow, so shall you reap

It's not karma,
you poured
water on the TV

Really? You have any proof?

The look on your face says it all

Take a look at yourself
and show it to your worthless husband!

She called you worthless!

Shut your trap

One slap and you'll cry all night

I dare you

I'll make sure you regret it

Keep your threats to yourself

He's not a coward to be scared of you

And you think my husband won't fight back?

Send in your worthless bull!

Go on!

I said go

So, brother-in-law,
did you shit yourself?

How dare you!

- Come on, Vishnu!
- Break his head

- Vishnu!
- Come on!

What are you waiting
for?

Go for it

Is this the state of the Indian army?

Long Live Mother India!

Junior!

What's going on?

This way, my dear

I don't understand

Jagan

listen...

don't let anger cloud your judgement

Calm down and think about it

Trust me, I am calm

Vishnu

give it another thought

Are you responsible for this?

No, Bapu

You swear?

Is that a yes or a no?

Look after Vishnu

And that's how

Without any bloodshed
India and Pakistan were partitioned

Cracker to the left
Cracker to the right

Boom, boom goes the cracker

Cracker to the left

Boom, boom goes the cracker

Elbows you
Knees you too

Elbows you
Knees you too

Explodes in the head
Bang, bang goes the cracker

Cracker to the left

Boom, boom goes the cracker

Boom goes the cracker

Boom goes the cracker

What is this?

So many mistakes on each page

Falling over each other
constantly at war

The victor showing off
Yawning, stretching casually

free-for-all

Flares up on demand

Just place your order

Here and there and everywhere
Come, get your fireball

Cracker to the left

Hurry up

Sweep properly

Nobody listens to me

Scream your lungs out, squabbling

Squabbling

Scream your lungs out, squabbling

Get hold of the collar
Tear and stitch it every day

Once more, an encore please

Light the firecracker once more

Boom, boom and
Bang, bang, there goes the cracker

Give me some

Me too

You want some more?

Bapu!

Bapu...

My princess...

My child...

My dear

Fulfilled your dream?

Yes

What's with the cough?

It's nothing

Look at this

Dear family members
and all the
friends in the village

with your
blessings,
I have topped in my
institute

I have also earned scholarship
for my further studies

The day is not far when I will be a
teacher
and open a school in the
village

Love to all of you.
See you very, very soon

Wait a minute,
forgot to ask

How are you, Mother Dairy?

Bapu, once more

Today we are talking to the recipient of
the Golden Cow award, Mrs. Champa Kumari

Mother, look aunt is on TV

What?

How does it feel to win this?

Genda, come soon,
your sister is on TV

It feels good, feels great

What's the secret of your success?

Well, cows

How so?

Cows have...

a certain innocence, a giving nature
and they are meek

but if anybody troubles them,
they will chase you until kingdom come

You could say

Every cow is Champa and
Champa is in every cow

Every cow is Champa and
Champa is in every cow

Champa is in every cow

Every cow is Champa

and Champa is in every cow

Every cow is Champa

Every cow is Champa

and Champa is in every cow

Every cow is Champa

and Champa is in every cow

Sir

Vishnu

She's awake now

But...

there seems to be a problem
with her vision

Sir, what do you mean?

She can't see anything

Don't worry, we've called an eye surgeon

Come

Who is it?

Vishnu

Vishnu...

What's wrong with my eyes?

I can't see anything

It will be all right

I've gone blind

No, Marigold

How are you, Mother Dairy?

What is it?

How are you, Mother Dairy?

How are you, Mother Dairy?

open a school in the
village

Come out and talk

Come out I say,
enough of your English

You wait...

You got scared?

Witch! Come out!

- Come out, I say
- Champa?

What's wrong?

I think the witch from the well
has possessed her

Wait, I'll show you

You wait!

Champa...

Oh, no

Lie down, don't try to get up

you seem to be under stress

are you nauseous?

How does your mouth taste?

Sour or bitter?

Tell me

Badki

Tell me

Tell him, Champa

Hello?

Hello?

Hello Badki

Hello?

Can you hear me?

Badki?

What's wrong?

Hello, Jagan
This is Khenchu Maharaj...

come home as soon as you can

Badki has become
mute

Mute? What do you mean?

The reports seem good

Then why can't she see, doctor?

That remains to be seen

Your daughter-in-law desecrated
the sanctity of the well

and that's when the witch possessed her

Help us please, witch doctor

It'll take a goat and a bottle of whiskey

Okay

You evil spirit,
I command you to come out

Set her throat free

Evil spirit!

Badki

You hit me?

How dare you!

Badki...

Badki...

Listen to me

Somebody grab her

Stop her

Stop her

She'll kill him

Drop this, let's go inside

Yes, Vishnu?

Come inside

What?

Bapu...

God bless you

Genda, we'll be conducting
some advance tests

Are you ready?

Open your mouth

Lift your thumb

Good

Now, touch your right thumb
to your left thumb

Go on

Try it

It's okay

Tell me your name?

Okay

I want you to hum

Okay

Be careful

Very good

There's a door ten steps ahead of you

Walk towards it

No... I'll fall down

You won't fall

There's nothing in the way

Go on

Massage your throat
three times a day

You need to massage like this.
Okay?

Very good

Okay

Please wait outside

Not you

You go on

This is hysterical blindness

A psychosomatic prodrome
called hysterical aphonia

What do you mean?

It means she can see...

but her mind prevents her from seeing

How so?

It's like a blind person knows
where his mouth is

where his thumb is

but he can't see the chair
kept in his way

If a mute can cough,
that means his voice box is fine

What causes this?

She seems to have a lot of angst

a deep wound

sadness or she is annoyed with someone

And that's blocking her cornea

What's the cure for this?

Psychiatrist

or you can help her heal
with love and affection

Once that knot gets untied

she'll see again

She'll not only talk, but sing too

Chutki...

tell me something

How much do you
love me?

What's eating you up?

Eating me up?

Don't keep it all to yourself

tell me

what is it?

Why are you asking me this?

Because the doctor said

that you can see,
but you don't want to

There's nothing wrong with your throat

Medically

You mean

I'm pretending to be blind?

No...

And you believe the doctor?

No, Badki...

You're taking it the wrong way

I'll give that doctor a piece of my mind

take me to the hospital

- Right now
- You're taking it the wrong way

I've gone blind and you think I'm pretending

Badki...

Badki...

Badki!

Don't take it out on your medicine

Genda

don't forget to put eyedrop, okay?

Two eyedrop...

each eye, okay?

Take care

I'm getting late

Genda...

open the door

It's time for Bapu to leave

Trust me, I don't want to go but...

But you are

It's the festival of Holi tomorrow

And Badki's
situation has worsened

Now I've realised...

that you love her more than me

Go and consider me dead

Chutki...

I'll miss the train

Chutki, listen...

Move aside

Everything for rupees 10,
combs, mirrors, oil

chewing gum... rupees 10 flat rate

Use this oil your hair will come back

Get lost!

Mirror, oil, toys, chewing gum...

rupees 10 flat rate

mirrors, oil

Everything for rupees 10,
combs, mirrors, oil

Special rate for you

rupees two

Don't bother me

Dipper, it's you

Bapu, you're not dead yet?

I'm hardly alive

Make room for me

What's wrong?

Both my daughters lives are ruined

Bapu, don't cry

- Ruined
- No, Bapu...

The cure for both is the same, Bapu

for the blind and the mute

What?

War

Enough, you meddler

But it's the truth

first a thunderous war

followed by
long-lasting peace

I told you

they're like India and
Pakistan

Unless they fight,
they can't be happy

Dipper, the ticket collector

Let's go

I'll meet you at the next station

Stop right here

That's enough

Brake... brake

Bapu, let's go, we're home

You've slept enough, wake up

Bapu...

Bapu?

You sent word to Vishnu?

Yes, I called this morning

They should be here soon

Bapu...

Bapu...

Genda...

Bapu...

Bapu...

You can't go away like this

Bapu...

I can't even see you

I know, my sister has killed you

Badki took your life

Bapu...

Bapu...

She killed you

Bapu...

Bapu...

This bitch must have poisoned you

She poisoned you

You took Bapu's life,
now you're here for us?

You evil witch

I poisoned him?

You're accusing me?

You lying witch

Because of you he's dried up like a twig

and look at you,
how you have ballooned

You can see this balloon?

Of course, look

running a dairy farm
she's become a buffalo herself

If you're the wife of a soldier,
then step outside

I will perform your final rites before Bapu's.
I swear!

Come

Come on, Mrs. Telephone!

I'll cremate you before Bapu!

Come on, Badki
Let's go, Chutki

Today we'll decide once and for all

What the hell are you doing, Dipper?

No one will stop us today

No one will stop us today...

you have your kids swear

and your buffaloes

Here you go

Whoever interferes
will feel the wrath of my rod

There's no use being kind

No matter what you do,
evil always creeps in

You're right, sister

Everyone just sees their deeds

and turns a blind eye to the world

Yes, I was blind!

but you didn't even call me

I was possessed by a witch
and I couldn't talk

You didn't even ask how I was doing

Why didn't you ask first?

You don't even know what love is

Every night you would drop your blanket
and shiver in the cold

Who covered you up?

Mother's ghost?

You want me to recount?

When you were down with malaria...

I fasted for 16 days

For whom? Huh?

For that pervert Patel?

When you got your first period...

you were scared out of you wits

who explained it to you?

I tore my own clothes
to make a pad for you

You wore a loose tunic...

I saved every penny...

and brought you your first bra

I even ate lady finger for you

And I drank milk

The most disgusting thing ever

You ungrateful witch

Don't cry!

Fight!

Bapu!

Bapu...

Why did you stop?

Fight some more

or you'll start limping next

and then Dipper

will ask me to play dead again

It is the truth...

your peace remains in your war

So, my India-Pakistan...

Go fight

fight...

Come witch...

take a shot

You dirty wretch...

Happy Holi!

I wish a day would come when...

just like Badki and Chutki

Israel and Palestine

North Korea and South Korea

India and Pakistan

end their disagreements

and come together with love
