3
00:01:42,210 --> 00:01:44,510
Don't act smart when I call you.
- Don’t do that.

4
00:01:44,750 --> 00:01:46,680
I act smart or you.
- Where we are going?

5
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:47,820
Where are we going, papa?

6
00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:49,500
To visit your uncle. - The sell
some really nice clothes out there.

7
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,060
That’s what everyone says.

8
00:01:51,910 --> 00:01:53,250
It is more fashionable in Sarojini.

9
00:01:53,620 --> 00:01:54,960
Stop… - Bus…

10
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:56,160
Come…

11
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,690
Come, dear. Our stop has arrived.

12
00:01:59,260 --> 00:02:00,250
Come.

13
00:02:01,020 --> 00:02:02,400
Wait, aunty.

14
00:02:03,110 --> 00:02:05,080
Where do you want to go?
- Just drive, uncle.

15
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:06,840
We’ll get down wherever we like.

16
00:02:08,510 --> 00:02:09,830
Sit.. sit.

17
00:02:14,990 --> 00:02:18,040
So…where are you getting off?

18
00:02:19,460 --> 00:02:22,500
Same place these two will get off.

19
00:02:24,910 --> 00:02:26,050
Or just her…

20
00:02:27,900 --> 00:02:29,030
How dare you touch her?

21
00:02:29,110 --> 00:02:30,780
Leave me.

22
00:02:31,590 --> 00:02:33,000
Sunny…

23
00:02:33,510 --> 00:02:34,470
Get her down from bus.

24
00:02:35,100 --> 00:02:36,720
Sunny…
- Beat him up.

25
00:02:46,130 --> 00:02:48,150
Priya run.

26
00:02:48,410 --> 00:02:51,000
Priya run.

27
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:53,510
Catch her.

28
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:55,920
Catch her.

29
00:02:56,490 --> 00:02:57,400
Catch her.

30
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,820
Stop…stop…

31
00:03:06,870 --> 00:03:08,080
Where did she come from?

32
00:03:08,250 --> 00:03:10,930
Move you old hag!
Get lost…

33
00:03:11,250 --> 00:03:13,370
Are you crazy?
Get lost.

34
00:04:24,950 --> 00:04:27,340
‘August 1947.'

35
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,660
‘On the orders issued by Lord Mountbatten,
the last Viceroy of India …’

36
00:04:33,370 --> 00:04:37,420
‘…niche British officer
Sir Syril Radcliffe was endowed …’

37
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,710
‘…with a very important
responsibility.’

38
00:04:43,550 --> 00:04:47,350
‘Diving India into two parts.’

39
00:04:49,450 --> 00:04:53,650
‘So Sir Radcliffe, who wasn’t even aware
of the length and breadth of India…’

40
00:04:54,620 --> 00:04:58,310
‘…and, who couldn’t differentiate
between North and South…’

41
00:04:58,820 --> 00:05:00,540
‘…issued a map of India.’

42
00:05:01,060 --> 00:05:02,540
‘Drew two lines…’

43
00:05:03,150 --> 00:05:05,370
‘One in Bengal,
and the other in Punjab.’

44
00:05:06,090 --> 00:05:07,270
‘And within four weeks…’

45
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,220
‘Just four weeks…’

46
00:05:10,460 --> 00:05:16,480
‘…on basis of his amateurish knowledge,
he divided the country into two parts.'

47
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,280
‘India…and Pakistan.’

48
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:23,550
‘Everything was divided.’

49
00:05:24,330 --> 00:05:28,390
‘Farms, fields,
lanes, villages, cities, rivers…’

50
00:05:28,750 --> 00:05:34,160
‘Jhelum, Himalaya, Kutch, Thar,
animals, men, women, children, old…’

51
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:35,230
‘Everyone.’

52
00:05:35,860 --> 00:05:36,970
‘Everyone was divided.’

53
00:05:37,450 --> 00:05:40,210
‘These two lines of Sir Radcliffe…’

54
00:05:41,250 --> 00:05:46,990
‘…divided the heart
and soul of 140 Cr people.’

55
00:05:49,590 --> 00:05:51,340
‘Millions became homeless.’

56
00:05:52,230 --> 00:05:54,450
‘Thousands of innocents died.’

57
00:05:55,620 --> 00:05:57,040
‘And the coming generations…’

58
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:01,690
‘…were uprooted by
this Radcliff line.’

59
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,180
‘This is a story of one such house.’

60
00:06:11,230 --> 00:06:15,760
‘The line passed through this house…’

61
00:06:16,190 --> 00:06:21,580
‘…severing it’s very head,
but couldn’t divide it.’

62
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,300
“From the Bundelas and Harbolas
we heard her stories of glory.”

63
00:06:26,830 --> 00:06:30,410
“One who fought bravely,
that was the queen of Jhansi.’

64
00:06:31,220 --> 00:06:32,570
What did you understand, Laadli?

65
00:06:33,090 --> 00:06:39,370
After the king’s demise, the queen did
not hide behind her veil and shed tears.

66
00:06:40,020 --> 00:06:42,680
Despite all the deceit and treachery…

67
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,960
…by the men of her court,
the queen was stood steadfast.

68
00:06:46,410 --> 00:06:47,510
She did not deter.

69
00:06:47,650 --> 00:06:51,800
You see, she already knew
how to ride a horse, wield a sword.

70
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:53,980
But when things got out of control…

71
00:06:54,060 --> 00:06:56,020
…she was determined
to build her own army.

72
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,030
With the flag soaring high,
and brave-heartedly…

73
00:06:59,110 --> 00:07:01,610
…she challenged the enemy head on.

74
00:07:02,130 --> 00:07:03,870
Now that’s a staunch woman…

75
00:07:04,350 --> 00:07:07,930
Creator of a new history. Laxmibai.

76
00:07:08,300 --> 00:07:11,480
Who, in order to save
her kingdom of Jhansi…

77
00:07:11,630 --> 00:07:13,210
…made the Britisher’s life hell.

78
00:07:13,610 --> 00:07:14,790
With a sword in one hand…

79
00:07:14,870 --> 00:07:18,440
…and her son tied to her back…
- Did queen Laxmibai have a son too?

80
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,970
Yes, it wasn’t her own blood.

81
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,920
Maybe he was adopted.

82
00:07:23,380 --> 00:07:25,010
Then whose daughter am I?

83
00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:28,150
This wretch has no
dearth of questions.

84
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,870
Laali… - I am not going
to tell you any more stories.

85
00:07:29,950 --> 00:07:32,430
Go and study.. – Laali.

86
00:07:32,510 --> 00:07:34,020
I dont want to tell.
- This girl...

87
00:07:34,370 --> 00:07:35,320
Laali.

88
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,220
Are you going to take a bath
or should I throw you in the well?

89
00:07:37,790 --> 00:07:41,320
And aunty, Begum Jaan’s calling you.
– Coming.

90
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,570
If Begum Jaan’s calling me,
then I must go.

91
00:08:30,930 --> 00:08:33,940
Begum Jaan,
she was humiliated in the past riots.

92
00:08:34,990 --> 00:08:37,630
Some boys dumped her in
the camp in a pitiful state.

93
00:08:38,310 --> 00:08:41,780
Her father refused to
take her in and left her here.

94
00:08:44,680 --> 00:08:48,040
Father, brother, son, husband…

95
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:57,190
On the other side of Begum Jaan’s
threshold, every man is a ba*****

96
00:08:58,270 --> 00:09:02,640
But on this side,
every man is a goose.

97
00:09:03,540 --> 00:09:05,260
A goose with three legs.

98
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,640
I am sure your father
must have given you a name.

99
00:09:20,940 --> 00:09:23,580
Well…I’ll give you one then.

100
00:09:27,290 --> 00:09:29,290
Her cheeks are still red like apples.

101
00:09:29,370 --> 00:09:31,670
I guess she’s from Kashmir. – Yes.

102
00:09:32,490 --> 00:09:37,250
Well then…your name is Shabnum.

103
00:09:39,430 --> 00:09:40,880
Pet name…Shabbo.

104
00:09:42,060 --> 00:09:43,310
Will you remember?

105
00:09:45,590 --> 00:09:48,450
Aunty…take her in.

106
00:09:48,820 --> 00:09:52,110
Bathe her, clean her, feed her.

107
00:09:52,910 --> 00:09:55,030
Sujeet. – Yes, ma’am.

108
00:09:55,210 --> 00:09:59,760
Get some clothes
for her from the market.

109
00:10:00,100 --> 00:10:01,860
Rubina. – Yes.

110
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,590
Jamila, Lata...

111
00:10:04,770 --> 00:10:06,720
…you three take care of her.
- Come, dear.

112
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:08,520
Teach her.

113
00:10:09,090 --> 00:10:12,040
And Salim,
if anyone ever comes looking for her.

114
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,390
Any relative or someone
from the police station…

115
00:10:14,550 --> 00:10:17,680
…then tell them that Begum
Jaan has given her refuge.

116
00:10:18,130 --> 00:10:19,110
Search over.

117
00:10:19,310 --> 00:10:20,230
Okay.

118
00:10:21,750 --> 00:10:24,200
Wait! Come here!

119
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,320
Harder, Rubina.

120
00:10:37,780 --> 00:10:41,340
My child…it’s paining a lot, isn’t it?

121
00:10:45,420 --> 00:10:47,400
You’re in a shock.

122
00:10:49,050 --> 00:10:50,830
They were really cruel, weren’t they?

123
00:10:56,300 --> 00:10:57,960
They did a terrible thing.

124
00:11:03,810 --> 00:11:05,130
Even your father disowned you.

125
00:11:34,790 --> 00:11:35,950
Finally, it’s all out.

126
00:11:40,650 --> 00:11:42,740
Otherwise,
your pain would’ve never healed.

127
00:11:44,590 --> 00:11:46,960
Life will be easier now.

128
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:28,800
“I fell so deeply… in love with you.”

129
00:12:29,070 --> 00:12:35,550
“The old memories
were refreshed again.”

130
00:12:35,810 --> 00:12:38,760
“What has happened?”

131
00:12:39,330 --> 00:12:42,320
“When did I hold my breath…”

132
00:12:42,830 --> 00:12:46,150
“…and when did I let go.”

133
00:12:46,230 --> 00:12:52,600
“Every pain was conveyed.”

134
00:12:53,030 --> 00:12:55,970
“What has happened?”

135
00:12:56,490 --> 00:13:00,590
“I fell so deeply…

136
00:13:20,770 --> 00:13:23,910
“The beautiful Awadh evenings…”

137
00:13:23,990 --> 00:13:26,910
“…reflects in my eyes.”

138
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,600
“My lips are red…”

139
00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:33,660
“…as the morning of Benares.”

140
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,530
“The water of Jhelum…”

141
00:13:37,610 --> 00:13:40,590
“…trickles down my hair.”

142
00:13:41,070 --> 00:13:47,850
“I’ve been wandering
from one shore to another…”

143
00:13:47,930 --> 00:13:54,680
“…that I’ve lost my own abode.”

144
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,130
“What has happened?”

145
00:13:58,210 --> 00:14:04,610
“I fell so deeply… in love with you.”

146
00:14:14,100 --> 00:14:20,430
“The old memories
were refreshed again.”

147
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,300
“What has happened?”

148
00:14:24,380 --> 00:14:29,040
“I fell so deeply…

149
00:15:41,130 --> 00:15:43,220
We even went to Sakkargarh
police station, sir.

150
00:15:43,750 --> 00:15:46,010
But they said it’s
outside their jurisdiction.

151
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,830
So they can’t do anything.

152
00:15:47,990 --> 00:15:50,200
Please… - - But, what can I do?

153
00:15:51,310 --> 00:15:53,010
It doesn’t come under
our jurisdiction either.

154
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:54,410
It’s outside the city limits.

155
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,470
The boys are growing up, sir.

156
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:58,990
It’s getting harder to
keep them under restraints.

157
00:15:59,270 --> 00:16:02,980
You see,
even my daughter is growing up.

158
00:16:03,410 --> 00:16:06,920
Just last month she
completed 10 years. – Yes.

159
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,980
But I know the
responsibility of a father.

160
00:16:10,390 --> 00:16:14,430
So I keep her away from this filth.

161
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:15,990
But sir, that’s not the real problem.

162
00:16:16,070 --> 00:16:19,250
Those bunch of prostitutes,
they roam around freely.

163
00:16:19,540 --> 00:16:22,010
It’s difficult to even
pass through that route now.

164
00:16:22,330 --> 00:16:28,080
They drink, they smoke…and
abuse filthily. – What did you think?

165
00:16:28,860 --> 00:16:30,220
Prostitutes are religious people.

166
00:16:30,390 --> 00:16:31,770
That’s not it, sir.

167
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,460
But you know…they
are spreading diseases.

168
00:16:35,540 --> 00:16:37,010
Tell me one thing.

169
00:16:37,340 --> 00:16:42,390
Where were you last Saturday
at around 9-9:30 pm.

170
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:43,670
I…

171
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:46,460
I…

172
00:16:46,540 --> 00:16:51,130
Once a guy said to Mullah Naseeruddin…

173
00:16:51,970 --> 00:16:55,550
That my son eats a lot of sugar.
What to do?

174
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,500
The Mullah said…
Come back after a week.

175
00:16:59,250 --> 00:17:01,420
First I must stop eating sugar.

176
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,210
What…what are you trying to say, sir…

177
00:17:07,290 --> 00:17:10,050
First, you must stop eating sugar…

178
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,720
…and then stop your sons. Huh!

179
00:17:27,370 --> 00:17:30,110
If any rascal lays a finger
on these innocent people…

180
00:17:30,190 --> 00:17:32,660
…then Salim Mirza will turn
this place into their graves.

181
00:17:32,850 --> 00:17:34,980
Bloody racists…you
call yourself Muslims.

182
00:17:52,500 --> 00:17:55,900
Run… - I’ve no words to describe,
dear…the battle was so fierce.

183
00:17:55,980 --> 00:17:58,540
But Salim Mirza refused to budge.

184
00:17:58,790 --> 00:18:01,010
Mirza didn’t rest until
all the protestors were subdued…

185
00:18:01,090 --> 00:18:05,640
…and the Hindus were safely
transported to the camps.

186
00:18:06,430 --> 00:18:07,360
But..

187
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,150
Oh my,,, there is a camp of lice in your head.

188
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,030
But what was the outcome of it?

189
00:18:12,510 --> 00:18:15,600
Torn shoes…humiliation…

190
00:18:16,090 --> 00:18:19,400
…and the rascal was also
fired from the police department.

191
00:18:19,850 --> 00:18:21,580
Since then Salim’s been living here.

192
00:18:21,940 --> 00:18:26,020
Aunty, is killing Hindus
same as killing Muslims?

193
00:18:29,690 --> 00:18:31,370
So the question is…

194
00:18:31,740 --> 00:18:33,560
…is it going to happen or not?

195
00:18:34,690 --> 00:18:36,080
You’ve lost your mind.

196
00:18:36,590 --> 00:18:38,260
The question is when?

197
00:18:38,410 --> 00:18:40,540
It’s just a rumor.

198
00:18:41,350 --> 00:18:43,070
They will erect few poles…

199
00:18:43,380 --> 00:18:44,880
…and then put up a boundary.

200
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,020
Then they will take the weekend off.

201
00:18:48,450 --> 00:18:50,080
Everything will be
back to normal after that.

202
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,700
I am telling you,
Panditji will never let this happen.

203
00:18:53,780 --> 00:18:55,600
Panditji. Panditji. Panditji.

204
00:18:56,500 --> 00:18:58,770
Is he handling the entire
politics of the country?

205
00:18:58,850 --> 00:19:02,050
There’s Jinnah, Singh sir, Sardar sir…

206
00:19:02,130 --> 00:19:03,680
Gandhiji too.

207
00:19:04,050 --> 00:19:07,070
There’s you, me…this Baliya.

208
00:19:08,750 --> 00:19:09,890
Together…

209
00:19:10,620 --> 00:19:12,010
We won’t let anything happen.

210
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:13,890
Understand.

211
00:19:14,470 --> 00:19:16,780
Those Britishers took
advantage of this naiveté.

212
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,120
200 years.

213
00:19:25,850 --> 00:19:28,630
What is he saying?

214
00:19:32,020 --> 00:19:33,270
What’s he saying?

215
00:19:44,410 --> 00:19:45,540
I don’t know.

216
00:19:47,850 --> 00:19:49,000
Freedom!

217
00:19:49,460 --> 00:19:52,820
Freedom!
Congratulations!

218
00:19:58,030 --> 00:20:00,140
We’re free. We’re free.

219
00:20:01,730 --> 00:20:03,250
Freedom.

220
00:20:18,750 --> 00:20:20,480
Stay back. Stay back.

221
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,450
Aunty, Plaese take care of her.

222
00:20:23,530 --> 00:20:25,760
She has got sparkler in her hand.

223
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:27,200
Careful, aunty.

224
00:20:32,470 --> 00:20:35,260
We got freedom...We got freedom...

225
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,110
Laadli move.

226
00:20:37,450 --> 00:20:39,290
Looks so nice, isn’t it?

227
00:20:41,350 --> 00:20:42,820
Yes you also will get sweets.

228
00:20:42,900 --> 00:20:45,140
Everyone will get. Take it...

229
00:20:47,300 --> 00:20:51,480
For Laadli. – O, teacher.

230
00:20:51,950 --> 00:20:54,020
She hasn’t even finished
reading the last book you gave her.

231
00:20:54,510 --> 00:20:55,410
What was it?

232
00:20:55,490 --> 00:20:57,060
Veer… - Veerangana.

233
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:58,600
Yes, Veerangana.

234
00:20:59,230 --> 00:21:01,490
And then these sweets, firecrackers.

235
00:21:01,570 --> 00:21:03,250
Why do you spend so much, teacher?

236
00:21:03,330 --> 00:21:05,390
We have a separate
fund for social work.

237
00:21:05,550 --> 00:21:08,560
You really think I can afford
all this with my tuition fee.

238
00:21:10,390 --> 00:21:12,790
I thought your pocket’s
like your heart.

239
00:21:12,970 --> 00:21:14,060
Big.

240
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,270
Begum Jaan, our country
has achieved independence today.

241
00:21:18,350 --> 00:21:19,920
Won't you celebrate?

242
00:21:20,310 --> 00:21:22,710
Independence is only for the men,
teacher.

243
00:21:23,610 --> 00:21:25,740
Women don’t even have
the freedom to abuse.

244
00:21:28,830 --> 00:21:30,460
You’ve very naïve, teacher.

245
00:21:30,790 --> 00:21:34,330
Should a prostitute celebrate
on a day when she has a customer…

246
00:21:34,670 --> 00:21:36,280
…or on the day she
doesn’t have even one.

247
00:21:36,510 --> 00:21:38,200
So you’re not happy
with the independence.

248
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,370
Independence is just nonsense.

249
00:21:40,450 --> 00:21:42,120
Holidays are very bad for business.

250
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,020
We didn’t have a single
customer since morning.

251
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,470
Respected and rich people
spend this day with their family.

252
00:21:47,550 --> 00:21:49,070
Why will they show up at the brothel?

253
00:21:49,650 --> 00:21:51,170
And even if someone shows up…

254
00:21:51,570 --> 00:21:55,460
…it’s one of those drunk labors.
Those who puke on the bed.

255
00:21:56,070 --> 00:21:58,470
And let’s not count
those freaking cops.

256
00:21:58,550 --> 00:22:00,920
The… - You don’t get it, Begum Jaan.

257
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:02,620
We’ve achieved freedom…

258
00:22:02,700 --> 00:22:05,110
…after 200 years of slavery to
the British. - This Brothel…

259
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,380
…is a different nation altogether.

260
00:22:07,650 --> 00:22:08,550
And freedom…

261
00:22:21,630 --> 00:22:24,000
You wretch…stay away
from the firecracker!

262
00:22:24,650 --> 00:22:25,900
Careful, dear.

263
00:22:26,090 --> 00:22:26,880
If you burn your face…

264
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,200
…you’ll be wandering
around like a b****

265
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,470
No one will buy you,
nor will I let you stay here.

266
00:22:31,820 --> 00:22:33,390
I will kick you out!

267
00:22:33,470 --> 00:22:36,780
Let it be… they are
celebrating independence today.

268
00:22:36,860 --> 00:22:38,340
Please don’t interfere, aunty.

269
00:22:38,420 --> 00:22:39,910
You’ve spoilt them!

270
00:22:41,530 --> 00:22:43,010
Such a short temper.

271
00:22:43,180 --> 00:22:44,630
Bloody… - Why?

272
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:46,440
Don’t you guys have a short-temper?

273
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,710
Begum Jaan,
let’s not be indifferent here.

274
00:22:48,790 --> 00:22:50,490
We’re all the same here.

275
00:22:50,570 --> 00:22:53,220
We’re all whores.
- Shut up!

276
00:22:57,630 --> 00:22:59,120
Teacher, you better leave now.

277
00:22:59,350 --> 00:23:01,770
And don't bring any more gifts.

278
00:23:02,050 --> 00:23:04,480
You see, Begun Jaan
never takes any favors.

279
00:23:04,750 --> 00:23:05,970
She always repays her debts.

280
00:23:06,050 --> 00:23:06,770
If we’re short of money…

281
00:23:06,850 --> 00:23:09,670
…we’ll offer you one of the
girls… - Stop blurting nonsense.

282
00:23:10,060 --> 00:23:11,920
I come here for the nations…

283
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,530
Some of the nation's women
and children are right here.

284
00:23:15,260 --> 00:23:17,240
Hindu, Muslim, Foreigners…whoever…

285
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:18,760
It will always be a man’s thing.

286
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:20,850
So what do we care… -
This country is yours as well.

287
00:23:20,930 --> 00:23:21,880
Fine, then go ahead…

288
00:23:22,120 --> 00:23:25,330
Ask anyone one man out
of the millions of citizens…

289
00:23:25,410 --> 00:23:29,000
…to marry one of the
children and take her away.

290
00:23:29,230 --> 00:23:30,130
Go on…

291
00:23:30,910 --> 00:23:33,030
I was just…
- Don't do it, teacher.

292
00:23:33,250 --> 00:23:34,510
Don’t make false claims.

293
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:51,800
Begum Jaan says that
even our hearts have a price.

294
00:23:52,710 --> 00:23:54,150
Teacher…

295
00:23:54,980 --> 00:23:58,490
Meaning, a little more than
these sweetmeats and firecrackers.

296
00:23:59,210 --> 00:24:03,670
But maybe…I’ll adjust for your sake.

297
00:24:05,310 --> 00:24:09,080
Begum Jaan is right
everything has a price.

298
00:24:09,700 --> 00:24:13,660
Body…soul…land.

299
00:24:16,660 --> 00:24:19,150
Panditji,
Sardar sir, Balwant Singh, Jinnah…

300
00:24:19,230 --> 00:24:21,310
Liaqat Khan… everyone
gave their approval.

301
00:24:21,390 --> 00:24:23,420
Who cares whether they
approve of it or not.

302
00:24:23,500 --> 00:24:25,240
This country is ours. – Was!

303
00:24:25,890 --> 00:24:27,700
Now they will draw
a line across Punjab.

304
00:24:28,180 --> 00:24:29,300
This side will be India…

305
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,170
…and on that side will be Pakistan.

306
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,930
And a line is drawn by
the foreigners in the middle.

307
00:24:34,010 --> 00:24:34,970
Radcliffe.

308
00:24:35,470 --> 00:24:36,600
Radcliffe line.

309
00:24:48,620 --> 00:24:52,780
The boundary line follows the western
boundary of Pathankot district…

310
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:57,590
…to the point where Pathankot Sakkargarh
and Gurdaspur districts meet.

311
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,480
Then it follows the boundary
between Sakkargarh...

312
00:25:01,700 --> 00:25:06,870
…and Gurdaspur districts,
between Batla and the Roval districts…

313
00:25:07,730 --> 00:25:10,760
…between Ansnala
and Sardara districts.

314
00:25:11,810 --> 00:25:16,810
To the point on the river Ravi, where the
districts of Lahore and Amritsar meet.

315
00:25:21,530 --> 00:25:24,110
Sir, Iliyas sir’s here.

316
00:25:31,410 --> 00:25:33,120
Hey…I am here.

317
00:25:38,450 --> 00:25:39,350
Why?

318
00:25:41,150 --> 00:25:42,400
Did I say something wrong?

319
00:25:45,790 --> 00:25:47,070
How is aunty?

320
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:49,920
Is Kusum alright?

321
00:25:51,030 --> 00:25:52,170
Yes, she is.

322
00:25:53,030 --> 00:25:54,780
She barely escaped getting raped.

323
00:25:56,380 --> 00:25:59,120
I don’t know whether
mother got raped or not.

324
00:25:59,330 --> 00:26:01,900
She doesn’t say anything.
Just keeps crying.

325
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:14,650
Sit.

326
00:26:21,090 --> 00:26:22,220
How is sister-in-law?

327
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:31,810
They killed her.

328
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:39,340
Then burned her.

329
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:45,830
I didn’t know.

330
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:48,920
I mean…I am really very sorry.

331
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:50,860
What if you had known…

332
00:26:51,730 --> 00:26:53,520
…and what could you've done
if it had happened in front of you?

333
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:58,400
It happened before my eyes.

334
00:26:59,260 --> 00:27:00,290
Everything.

335
00:27:00,590 --> 00:27:02,420
That night,
when they… - Paan (Betel leaf).

336
00:27:04,180 --> 00:27:05,810
Do you still chew betel leaf?

337
00:27:08,120 --> 00:27:09,250
I stopped that long ago.

338
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,400
And you…do you still eat beef?

339
00:27:17,130 --> 00:27:18,980
We would specially prepare it for you.

340
00:27:19,250 --> 00:27:20,670
Kebabs…beef.

341
00:27:22,670 --> 00:27:24,540
You hated colors.

342
00:27:25,990 --> 00:27:27,090
We would celebrate Holi.

343
00:27:27,170 --> 00:27:28,530
Iliyas.

344
00:27:29,580 --> 00:27:32,350
There's no point in remembering…
- Yes, we're enemies after all.

345
00:27:33,260 --> 00:27:35,090
We hate each other.

346
00:27:38,390 --> 00:27:39,420
Don’t worry…

347
00:27:40,990 --> 00:27:44,180
…no one will know that
we’re childhood friends.

348
00:27:44,690 --> 00:27:45,590
Okay.

349
00:27:45,670 --> 00:27:46,770
Yes…

350
00:27:47,710 --> 00:27:50,350
We’re the representatives of the Indian
National Congress and Muslim League.

351
00:27:51,300 --> 00:27:52,710
We’re here on official business.

352
00:27:52,790 --> 00:27:54,530
Job done…a nation divided.

353
00:27:55,030 --> 00:27:56,510
We might never meet again.

354
00:27:57,950 --> 00:27:59,640
It’ll be easier if we hate each other.

355
00:28:00,390 --> 00:28:05,060
Well, the inspectors of Dorangla
and Sakkargarh have arrived.

356
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:08,800
We've to go on an inspection.

357
00:28:09,410 --> 00:28:10,540
Let’s not delay anymore.

358
00:28:14,020 --> 00:28:17,620
It’s already too late, Iliyas.

359
00:28:19,110 --> 00:28:21,050
It’s too late.

360
00:28:22,270 --> 00:28:24,010
No, I want my mom
to apply the ointment.

361
00:28:24,090 --> 00:28:25,610
No, I want my mom. – Laadli.

362
00:28:25,690 --> 00:28:26,730
Your mother’s business.

363
00:28:26,810 --> 00:28:28,530
No, I want my mom
to apply the ointment.

364
00:28:28,610 --> 00:28:32,130
Mom-mom…mom, please put the medicine.

365
00:28:32,210 --> 00:28:33,960
My eyes are paining.

366
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:35,490
I’ve been telling you since morning…

367
00:28:35,570 --> 00:28:37,870
…to let aunty apply the medicine.
Don’t you get it?

368
00:28:37,950 --> 00:28:39,550
Jamila, don't shout at her.

369
00:28:39,630 --> 00:28:41,580
I will straight way drown you in the Ganges.

370
00:28:41,660 --> 00:28:43,530
Dear, where is it paining?

371
00:28:43,700 --> 00:28:45,120
I’ll put medicine in your eyes.

372
00:28:45,350 --> 00:28:47,780
No, only mom will put the medicine.
– Don’t cry.

373
00:28:47,860 --> 00:28:49,520
Stop crying, sweetheart.

374
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,350
Listen… - Come,
let’s do the Garba (Traditional Dance)

375
00:28:53,430 --> 00:28:54,570
Come on.

376
00:28:54,650 --> 00:28:57,030
Let's play... Let's play...

377
00:28:57,110 --> 00:28:58,700
Come, dear…listen to me.

378
00:28:58,780 --> 00:28:59,910
Don’t cry.

379
00:28:59,990 --> 00:29:01,010
I will tell a story.

380
00:29:01,090 --> 00:29:02,260
Lets play with your dolls.

381
00:29:02,340 --> 00:29:04,790
A man comes here leaving
his family problems behind.

382
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:06,890
But it’s the same mess all over again.

383
00:29:06,970 --> 00:29:08,290
Return my money.

384
00:29:08,370 --> 00:29:11,170
Can’t you wait for a minute?

385
00:29:11,250 --> 00:29:12,900
Are you in a hurry?

386
00:29:12,980 --> 00:29:16,360
Can’t you see that mother-daughter
are having a conversation?

387
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,690
Hold your horses for a second.

388
00:29:18,770 --> 00:29:20,420
It’s alright, go ahead and talk.

389
00:29:20,500 --> 00:29:22,800
Patience is sweetly rewarded.

390
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:27,440
Be patient.
- Listen, sweetheart…no need to wait.

391
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,710
Come over to me. – Oh my, my, my…

392
00:29:30,790 --> 00:29:33,470
Sweetheart…

393
00:29:33,650 --> 00:29:37,240
Stay in your limits,
and let me do my job.

394
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:38,860
Go handle your own clients.

395
00:29:39,190 --> 00:29:41,120
Hey shut up!

396
00:29:41,890 --> 00:29:45,160
You can leave if you like,
but you won’t get a penny back.

397
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:46,960
What’s this? I didn’t even touch her.

398
00:29:47,300 --> 00:29:49,570
You didn't even touch her?!

399
00:29:49,650 --> 00:29:50,960
What do you think of yourself?

400
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:51,800
Hey…

401
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:53,790
What’s going on here?

402
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,810
Your mother’s wedding,
or your fathers?

403
00:29:57,610 --> 00:29:59,000
We’ve official visitors from Lahore.

404
00:29:59,660 --> 00:30:00,390
Amba, Maina, Lata…

405
00:30:00,470 --> 00:30:03,030
Go and see what they want,
and how they want it. - Come…

406
00:30:03,300 --> 00:30:05,950
And Gulabo must be done by now. If she
isn’t, tell her to wrap up immediately.

407
00:30:06,030 --> 00:30:07,280
We need the rooms.

408
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:08,140
Rubina. – Yes.

409
00:30:08,220 --> 00:30:10,360
Tell Surjeet to go
play with Laadli. – Yes.

410
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:12,040
Aunty, you go inside. Go.

411
00:30:12,290 --> 00:30:13,760
Why can’t I stay with my mother?

412
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:15,230
Because she’s going with someone else.

413
00:30:15,310 --> 00:30:16,640
Why do you ask so many questions?

414
00:30:17,370 --> 00:30:18,930
Laadli, listen.

415
00:30:19,910 --> 00:30:23,520
This uncle here, he has some
important business with your mother.

416
00:30:24,110 --> 00:30:25,390
And I’ve promised him that…

417
00:30:25,470 --> 00:30:27,050
...he will not be disturbed.

418
00:30:27,810 --> 00:30:29,670
Now, if you stay with your mother…

419
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,190
…then Begum Jaan’s will become a liar.

420
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,790
Do you want people
to call Begum Jaan a liar?

421
00:30:36,150 --> 00:30:38,220
You don’t. Bravo…go.

422
00:30:38,470 --> 00:30:41,490
Rubina. Call Sujeet.

423
00:30:41,870 --> 00:30:46,950
So…which side are we on? – India.

424
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,550
According to Radcliffe sir’s line…

425
00:30:49,630 --> 00:30:52,690
…the border will be erected
between Dorangla and Shakkargarh.

426
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,960
And we’ll put up a
barbwire on the same line.

427
00:30:57,010 --> 00:30:59,510
Keep making lines,
putting up the barb wires…

428
00:30:59,590 --> 00:31:03,620
…and there you have it,
the India and Pakistan border.

429
00:31:04,430 --> 00:31:05,810
Is it that easy?

430
00:31:06,220 --> 00:31:08,860
Won’t there be riots like in Delhi,
Amritsar, Lahore?

431
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,240
Why? Are the people who
live here of a different kind?

432
00:31:13,330 --> 00:31:16,060
There will be riots,
just like on the other side.

433
00:31:16,970 --> 00:31:19,160
But the Muslim League will
not claim responsibility for it.

434
00:31:19,620 --> 00:31:22,700
People on both sides
must be properly warned.

435
00:31:22,890 --> 00:31:24,630
If they want to cross the border…

436
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:25,880
…then, they must do so now.

437
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,820
After that…they will
massacre the minorities.

438
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:30,980
When the time comes…

439
00:31:31,060 --> 00:31:33,590
…maybe we’ll do the
same thing, Iliyas.

440
00:31:34,150 --> 00:31:35,380
Like animals.

441
00:31:39,130 --> 00:31:40,680
Is this a wolf.

442
00:31:42,250 --> 00:31:43,010
Wow!

443
00:31:44,810 --> 00:31:46,250
Wow…fantastic.

444
00:31:46,330 --> 00:31:47,820
Tiger.

445
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:53,880
Monkey…

446
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,620
Yes, monkey.
- What are you scratching?

447
00:31:58,810 --> 00:32:01,350
He looks just like a monkey.
- Now elephant.

448
00:32:01,670 --> 00:32:02,660
Nice…

449
00:32:02,740 --> 00:32:03,730
Nice…

450
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,250
That's an Elephant!

451
00:32:08,530 --> 00:32:09,600
Now recognize this.

452
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:14,310
“From the Bundelas and Harbolas we heard her stories of glory.”

453
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:19,940
“One who fought bravely, that was the queen of Jhansi.’

454
00:32:20,910 --> 00:32:22,120
Let it be, aunty.

455
00:32:22,260 --> 00:32:24,220
God knows what you teach her…

456
00:32:24,300 --> 00:32:25,620
…and what she understands.

457
00:32:25,700 --> 00:32:29,150
She ruins my sleep by
asking questions all night.

458
00:32:32,060 --> 00:32:33,180
How was it?

459
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:35,910
Laadli, now try this.

460
00:32:36,790 --> 00:32:39,480
Laadli, my sweetheart, my child…

461
00:32:39,900 --> 00:32:41,580
…the teacher’s here, with your books.

462
00:32:43,190 --> 00:32:44,950
Begum Jaan, the teacher.

463
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:46,810
Send him in.

464
00:32:47,370 --> 00:32:49,130
I’ll call him.

465
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:54,520
Salim…really nice.

466
00:32:55,110 --> 00:32:57,780
Hey, enough of your stories.

467
00:32:57,940 --> 00:32:59,400
Get back to work everyone.

468
00:33:00,020 --> 00:33:02,870
Begum Jaan isn’t doing charity here.

469
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:04,200
Go on.

470
00:33:04,420 --> 00:33:06,420
And Rubina, go call Sujeet.

471
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:08,090
You two take the day off today.

472
00:33:08,170 --> 00:33:09,570
Go out.

473
00:33:10,210 --> 00:33:11,580
You want the day off.

474
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,250
I’ll show you.

475
00:33:14,700 --> 00:33:17,220
Catch him...

476
00:33:17,670 --> 00:33:19,330
What you all are doing?

477
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,450
Don’t let him go.

478
00:33:25,100 --> 00:33:26,740
According to Mr. Radcliffe…

479
00:33:26,820 --> 00:33:28,610
…the border will pass through here.

480
00:33:29,820 --> 00:33:33,310
Across the jungle,
and alongside that lake.

481
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:37,490
On this side will be India,
and it’s last station Dorangla.

482
00:33:37,740 --> 00:33:39,300
And on the other side
will be Shakkargarh…

483
00:33:39,570 --> 00:33:41,390
…Pakistan’s first Police station.

484
00:33:41,700 --> 00:33:44,320
There will be a border check
post between both of them, and…

485
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:46,160
What is this?

486
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:47,500
Did you…

487
00:33:48,690 --> 00:33:50,440
Mr. Srivastav, did you see that?

488
00:33:53,790 --> 00:33:55,700
Shyam, what is that? - Yes.

489
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,830
It’s one of those things, which you
normally find on the outskirts of the city.

490
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:00,230
Away from homes and neighborhoods.

491
00:34:00,310 --> 00:34:02,660
Is it a mosque? – No-no, sir.

492
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:04,230
It’s Begum Jaan’s brothel.

493
00:34:04,550 --> 00:34:05,440
Brothel.

494
00:34:05,610 --> 00:34:07,980
Mr. Akhtar, we must raze it down.

495
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,980
Because Radcliffe sir’s
line will pass through that.

496
00:34:14,550 --> 00:34:15,540
Exactly in the middle.

497
00:34:15,870 --> 00:34:19,250
Iliyas, the border check post will
be built in the exact same location.

498
00:34:19,330 --> 00:34:20,800
Right?
- Yes…

499
00:34:21,070 --> 00:34:22,580
So that means, inside the brothel…

500
00:34:22,660 --> 00:34:25,080
…on one side there will be India,
and on the other will be Pakistan.

501
00:34:26,590 --> 00:34:27,890
Are the Britisher’s making borders…

502
00:34:27,970 --> 00:34:29,160
…or fooling around.

503
00:34:30,850 --> 00:34:32,630
No…I mean…

504
00:34:32,710 --> 00:34:34,730
They must have thought this through.

505
00:34:34,810 --> 00:34:38,730
Sir, can’t we shift
the line a little bit.

506
00:34:39,630 --> 00:34:43,340
Mister, a nation’s getting divided,
people are dying…

507
00:34:44,090 --> 00:34:46,100
…and you want to know whether
the line could be shifted or not?

508
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:48,820
The decision’s been taken,
the map’s been chalked out.

509
00:34:49,170 --> 00:34:50,490
Nothing can be shifted now.

510
00:34:50,740 --> 00:34:51,870
Careful.

511
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:53,540
And what’s the matter?

512
00:34:54,230 --> 00:34:57,460
I can sense that you’re more scared
of this brothel than the border.

513
00:34:57,620 --> 00:34:58,390
What is the matter?

514
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:00,350
You see… - Let me tell you.

515
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:03,350
Begum Jaan, the owner of that brothel.

516
00:35:04,010 --> 00:35:06,140
Actually,…she's a serpent.

517
00:35:06,590 --> 00:35:09,250
She’s a powerful woman…with
high connections.

518
00:35:09,620 --> 00:35:10,970
From landlords to Britishers…

519
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:12,800
…she has everyone
in the palm of her hand.

520
00:35:12,980 --> 00:35:15,740
What’s more,
even the King is her special guest.

521
00:35:16,030 --> 00:35:18,070
That’s why she isn’t
scared of the Law.

522
00:35:18,790 --> 00:35:20,110
That’s obvious.

523
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:23,610
Where does your Begum Jaan hail from?

524
00:35:24,010 --> 00:35:25,920
No one knows her real name.

525
00:35:26,620 --> 00:35:28,540
But people say that
she’s from around here.

526
00:35:29,350 --> 00:35:30,960
She went to Benares after marriage.

527
00:35:31,650 --> 00:35:33,130
And became a widow
at a very young age.

528
00:35:33,380 --> 00:35:35,040
Someone sold her to a brothel.

529
00:35:35,510 --> 00:35:36,520
She stayed there for few days…

530
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,190
…and then fled to Lucknow.

531
00:35:38,930 --> 00:35:40,060
Where she became a courtesan.

532
00:35:40,140 --> 00:35:41,450
She earned a lot of fame.

533
00:35:42,150 --> 00:35:43,830
She just returned
a couple of years ago…

534
00:35:43,990 --> 00:35:46,730
…and built this brothel
between these two towns.

535
00:35:47,310 --> 00:35:48,680
She had the king’s support…

536
00:35:48,910 --> 00:35:49,990
…so she faced no difficulties.

537
00:35:50,270 --> 00:35:52,450
Singing, dancing, feasts…

538
00:35:52,530 --> 00:35:54,220
One can often hear sounds
of fun and frolic from that place.

539
00:35:54,900 --> 00:35:58,960
“Every girl in Brij…celebrates Holi.”

540
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:03,450
“Every girl in Brij…celebrates Holi.”

541
00:36:03,530 --> 00:36:07,650
"From their body…and from the heart."

542
00:36:07,730 --> 00:36:13,570
“…they’ve drenched themselves
in colors with Kanha.”

543
00:36:13,650 --> 00:36:17,780
“Every girl in Brij…celebrates Holi.”

544
00:36:17,860 --> 00:36:23,150
“Every girl in Brij…celebrates Holi.”

545
00:36:23,820 --> 00:36:26,090
“Peacock feathers in the air.”

546
00:36:26,170 --> 00:36:28,080
“The sound of the flute’s resonating.”

547
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:29,160
“The pots break…”

548
00:36:29,240 --> 00:36:30,280
“The Gopis are decked up…”

549
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,620
“Every lane in Vrindavan…”

550
00:36:32,700 --> 00:36:34,720
“…is soaked in the colors of Kanha.”

551
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,760
“…is soaked in the colors of Kanha.”

552
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,930
“Every girl in Brij…celebrates Holi.”

553
00:36:41,010 --> 00:36:42,790
“Every girl in Brij."

554
00:36:42,870 --> 00:36:48,370
“Every girl in Brij…celebrates Holi.”

555
00:36:55,180 --> 00:36:59,220
“The clouds are thundering…”

556
00:36:59,300 --> 00:37:03,260
“…and the body sways to its tune.”

557
00:37:03,460 --> 00:37:07,600
“We’re so fortunate…”

558
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,820
“…our courtyard’s filled
with all the colors.”

559
00:37:11,900 --> 00:37:16,460
“…our courtyard’s filled
with all the colors.”

560
00:37:17,470 --> 00:37:19,540
"Free wandering soul…"

561
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,850
“…high on cannabis.”

562
00:37:21,930 --> 00:37:25,940
“Lord Shankar’s on our threshold.”

563
00:37:26,470 --> 00:37:30,460
“What has happened?”

564
00:37:30,540 --> 00:37:34,430
"Every color…has turned
in the color of love."

565
00:37:34,510 --> 00:37:38,650
“The season can’t differentiate.”

566
00:37:38,730 --> 00:37:43,070
“The season can’t differentiate.”

567
00:37:43,150 --> 00:37:47,020
“When your body touched mine,
my world lit up.”

568
00:37:47,310 --> 00:37:49,040
“When you colored me…”

569
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:53,560
“Every girl in Brij…celebrates Holi.”

570
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:57,680
"From their body…and from the heart."

571
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:03,640
“…they’ve drenched themselves
in colors with Kanha.”

572
00:38:03,720 --> 00:38:09,810
“Every girl in Brij…celebrates Holi.”

573
00:38:12,930 --> 00:38:14,820
After her husband’s demise…

574
00:38:15,410 --> 00:38:17,430
…things started getting
more difficult for Meera.

575
00:38:17,770 --> 00:38:20,180
On one side was her
devotion to Lord Krishna.

576
00:38:20,890 --> 00:38:22,180
And on the other,...

577
00:38:22,670 --> 00:38:27,620
...was the increasing atrocities
of King Bhoj’s brother, Vikramaditya.

578
00:38:28,530 --> 00:38:31,650
For his greed of the throne,
king Vikramaditya plotted a ruse…

579
00:38:32,370 --> 00:38:36,850
…and laced the sweetmeats with poison.

580
00:38:37,330 --> 00:38:39,450
Meera ate it but
nothing happened to her.

581
00:38:39,980 --> 00:38:42,160
Vikramaditya was
shocked and surprised.

582
00:38:42,450 --> 00:38:43,720
How is this possible?

583
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:47,420
But Lord Krishna had
turned the poison into nectar.

584
00:38:47,780 --> 00:38:49,290
Then, he came up with another ruse.

585
00:38:49,890 --> 00:38:54,220
He put nails on Meera’s bed.

586
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:56,450
But Meera wasn’t scared.

587
00:38:56,530 --> 00:38:58,260
She sang the praises of Lord Hari.

588
00:38:58,860 --> 00:39:02,880
It’s said that Lord Krishna
foiled this ruse as well.

589
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:07,190
And He turned all the
nails into rose petals.

590
00:39:08,220 --> 00:39:12,820
And Meera forsook all earthly ties…

591
00:39:13,390 --> 00:39:15,190
…and devoted herself to Lord Hari.

592
00:39:15,270 --> 00:39:16,830
Who do we worship, aunty?

593
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:18,700
Who is our God?

594
00:39:19,050 --> 00:39:22,080
" I was talking to the peacock and that's what she said."

595
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,300
The king brought this doll for me.

596
00:39:24,380 --> 00:39:26,470
Show me that doll. – No. I won’t…

597
00:39:26,550 --> 00:39:30,450
I have a severe stomach ache… - Begum…

598
00:39:30,790 --> 00:39:32,300
I said I have a stomach ache.

599
00:39:32,530 --> 00:39:33,730
Why? Can’t I be sick?

600
00:39:34,070 --> 00:39:35,510
If you get too rough…

601
00:39:35,590 --> 00:39:37,460
…it may just all come out.

602
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,730
Begum Jaan…Gulabo’s making excuses.

603
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:42,500
Gulabo, hurry up.

604
00:39:42,580 --> 00:39:44,610
Gulabo, hurry up.

605
00:39:45,350 --> 00:39:47,740
Don’t be stubborn, Gulabo. Go inside.

606
00:39:47,820 --> 00:39:51,400
Begum Jaan, let me go. – Shut up.

607
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:53,290
Let me go… b***

608
00:39:53,370 --> 00:39:54,870
Didn’t you hear what I said?

609
00:39:55,720 --> 00:39:57,920
I’ve already accepted token,
now go inside.

610
00:39:58,590 --> 00:40:00,840
I really have a bad case
of loose motions, believe me.

611
00:40:01,130 --> 00:40:03,590
Even my hands and legs are paining,
and I think I've fever too.

612
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,860
Don’t give me excuses
during business hours, Gulabo.

613
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,720
I know why you fall sick every Friday.

614
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,100
Because the teacher visits us.

615
00:40:17,740 --> 00:40:20,360
If you want to fall in love,
then go some place else.

616
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:21,630
Understood?

617
00:40:22,090 --> 00:40:23,280
Why?

618
00:40:24,420 --> 00:40:26,710
You want to enjoy
with the teacher alone.

619
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,180
Begum Jaan, if you’re free…

620
00:40:30,260 --> 00:40:33,160
…we’ve some government officers,
with a legal notice.

621
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,150
Greetings, Begum Jaan.
All fine?

622
00:40:41,130 --> 00:40:42,910
Salim… - Yes, Begum Jaan.

623
00:40:43,420 --> 00:40:45,380
Take the dogs outside.

624
00:40:46,030 --> 00:40:48,320
And see that the don’t
cross the threshold.

625
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,070
Okay, Begum Jaan.

626
00:40:53,940 --> 00:40:55,410
So what were you saying?

627
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,860
Because if you’ve come
here to enjoy for free…

628
00:40:58,940 --> 00:41:01,220
…then, I am sure
you remember my answer.

629
00:41:02,610 --> 00:41:04,990
Begum Jaan, you’re embarrassing me.

630
00:41:05,660 --> 00:41:07,790
Actually,
I’m here for a different reason.

631
00:41:08,010 --> 00:41:10,960
Why? Not in the mood today, Shyam sir?

632
00:41:12,720 --> 00:41:14,960
Have you found another scapegoat?

633
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,670
Have some shame, Begum Jaan.

634
00:41:17,750 --> 00:41:20,190
These are top officials
from India and Pakistan.

635
00:41:20,500 --> 00:41:21,870
And they have legal orders for you.

636
00:41:22,420 --> 00:41:24,090
Oh my, again.

637
00:41:24,730 --> 00:41:28,190
Look, sir, we can't go
to the camp for medical checkups.

638
00:41:28,570 --> 00:41:30,050
I know syphilis,
etcetera, can be bothersome…

639
00:41:30,130 --> 00:41:31,360
…even if you don't have it.

640
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,910
And these bloody
foreigners enjoy for free.

641
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,530
Forget about paying the
price… - We’re not here for that.

642
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,800
We’ve eviction notice. – Huh…

643
00:41:42,220 --> 00:41:43,700
What notice?

644
00:41:44,750 --> 00:41:46,130
Eviction?

645
00:41:47,460 --> 00:41:49,560
You must vacate this brothel,
Begum Jaan.

646
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,110
The India-Pakistan border…

647
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,230
…will be erected right
in the middle of this brothel.

648
00:41:56,910 --> 00:41:58,130
We’ll build a check post here.

649
00:41:58,210 --> 00:41:59,640
India-and-Pakistan.

650
00:41:59,720 --> 00:42:01,120
India-and-Pakistan.

651
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:02,650
India-and-Pakistan.

652
00:42:16,210 --> 00:42:19,040
Maina. Hey, Maina.
Open the door quickly. – Yeah.

653
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:20,360
Maina.

654
00:42:20,900 --> 00:42:21,850
What?

655
00:42:22,210 --> 00:42:23,650
They are saying that
we’ll be thrown out of here.

656
00:42:23,730 --> 00:42:25,840
Have you lost your mind?
How can they throw us out?

657
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:27,590
Come with me…

658
00:42:46,370 --> 00:42:47,210
Come on.

659
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:52,740
Where will we go?

660
00:42:54,260 --> 00:42:56,010
My home’s right here.

661
00:42:57,490 --> 00:42:58,830
Won’t you settle down?

662
00:43:01,740 --> 00:43:03,310
Somewhere, away from this filth.

663
00:43:07,070 --> 00:43:08,900
You’re so stupid.

664
00:43:11,550 --> 00:43:13,120
This is my home.

665
00:43:15,370 --> 00:43:16,810
I don’t like all this.

666
00:43:18,890 --> 00:43:19,730
What?

667
00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:39,320
I owe Begum Jaan a big amount.

668
00:43:39,860 --> 00:43:41,480
She’s done so much for me.

669
00:43:42,070 --> 00:43:43,420
So I even I have a responsibility…

670
00:43:47,070 --> 00:43:49,980
So what if I am a
pimp…can’t be love someone?

671
00:43:52,430 --> 00:43:53,300
What?

672
00:43:56,010 --> 00:43:57,530
What did you say?

673
00:43:59,110 --> 00:44:01,850
What can’t you do? – Love.

674
00:44:03,540 --> 00:44:04,990
What’s so funny?

675
00:44:06,970 --> 00:44:08,200
Okay-okay…

676
00:44:10,340 --> 00:44:13,960
Say it in English. – It's nothing.

677
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,290
Say it…please, say it,

678
00:44:20,850 --> 00:44:22,670
I…love you!

679
00:44:25,610 --> 00:44:26,960
Oh, my…

680
00:44:36,980 --> 00:44:38,470
I love you!

681
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:43,720
Oh, my…

682
00:47:01,940 --> 00:47:03,890
This is an official notice.

683
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,310
One from Delhi and
the other from Karachi.

684
00:47:07,340 --> 00:47:10,570
There’s a law formed under
the Boundary Commission Act…

685
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:12,820
…under which, it’s been decided
to build an international border…

686
00:47:13,110 --> 00:47:15,470
…between India and Pakistan.

687
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:18,100
Do you know what a border means?

688
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:19,780
A perimeter…

689
00:47:20,240 --> 00:47:23,810
We’ll erect a barbwire
between both the nations…

690
00:47:24,090 --> 00:47:28,490
Unfortunately Begum Jaan,
sir Radcliffe’s line, this border…

691
00:47:28,750 --> 00:47:31,450
…will be erected right
through your brothel.

692
00:47:32,410 --> 00:47:34,730
Now, do you understand…
- Wait-wait-wait…

693
00:47:36,020 --> 00:47:39,260
Let me first understand
your concept of the border line.

694
00:47:39,630 --> 00:47:48,320
So, across the courtyard, where
Rubina, Rani, Laadli are standing…

695
00:47:49,090 --> 00:47:50,220
Will be India?

696
00:47:51,590 --> 00:47:54,870
And on this side,
where Amba, Maina are standing.

697
00:47:55,270 --> 00:47:56,630
Will be Pakistan?

698
00:47:58,950 --> 00:48:00,130
Yes.

699
00:48:00,380 --> 00:48:03,390
Huh? – Yes.

700
00:48:04,670 --> 00:48:06,020
Here…read it for yourself.

701
00:48:06,940 --> 00:48:08,000
Can you read?

702
00:48:38,460 --> 00:48:40,030
What happened?
– I don’t know what’s wrong?

703
00:48:43,660 --> 00:48:45,200
What is so funny?

704
00:48:46,660 --> 00:48:50,510
Sir, your Mr.
Radcliffe turned out to be a butcher.

705
00:48:51,290 --> 00:48:53,100
And an amateur at that.

706
00:48:54,610 --> 00:48:56,160
If he wanted to divide the country…

707
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:58,220
…he should’ve done a better job.

708
00:48:58,300 --> 00:49:01,530
In fact, Rahim can gut
the goat better than that.

709
00:49:01,610 --> 00:49:02,530
Isn't that right?

710
00:49:03,690 --> 00:49:04,740
Chest…

711
00:49:04,820 --> 00:49:05,860
Thighs…

712
00:49:05,940 --> 00:49:06,760
Kidneys…

713
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:08,050
Liver…

714
00:49:08,130 --> 00:49:10,480
But cutting in the middle.
- Begum Jaan…

715
00:49:11,260 --> 00:49:14,390
I think you’re not aware of
the seriousness of this situation.

716
00:49:14,470 --> 00:49:16,630
So let me explain you again.

717
00:49:17,230 --> 00:49:20,450
From next month,
we’ll start laying barbed wires…

718
00:49:20,820 --> 00:49:22,660
…on the Indian-Pakistan border.

719
00:49:23,190 --> 00:49:24,940
The Hindus and Muslims of
the cities adjoining this line,...

720
00:49:25,110 --> 00:49:28,320
...which is Dorangla and Sakkargarh…

721
00:49:28,450 --> 00:49:31,340
…will be advised to cross the border.

722
00:49:31,860 --> 00:49:34,650
Because the last few
incidents are evident…

723
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:40,120
…that Hindus in Pakistan
and Muslims in India are not safe.

724
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,130
And exactly at this point,
where we’re standing…

725
00:49:43,210 --> 00:49:45,210
…we’ll be building
a border check-post.

726
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,780
Where the men, goods,
and cattle will cross the border.

727
00:49:49,610 --> 00:49:53,330
And…there can be riots between
Hindus and Muslims as well.

728
00:49:54,070 --> 00:49:57,010
So we advise you… - Hey,
did you pay the price?

729
00:49:57,530 --> 00:50:00,080
Yes… - Money.

730
00:50:00,790 --> 00:50:02,070
Yes, I paid you in full.

731
00:50:02,460 --> 00:50:06,830
Why? Did you ask about
the girl’s caste, her religion?

732
00:50:06,910 --> 00:50:08,330
Is she Hindu or Muslim?

733
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:09,770
Meaning?

734
00:50:09,850 --> 00:50:12,450
I mean what has religion got to do…
- And you, Mr. half-naked…

735
00:50:12,610 --> 00:50:13,800
What is your caste?

736
00:50:13,940 --> 00:50:18,370
Caste? Well, I am a Brahmin.
- And you see mister,...

737
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:28,590
...we didn’t ask them
any questions either.

738
00:50:28,790 --> 00:50:30,900
Caste…creed…religion.

739
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:36,750
They just chose a girl…fixed
a price…and welcome.

740
00:50:37,590 --> 00:50:38,490
Did you get it?

741
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:40,390
What’s to understand?

742
00:50:41,380 --> 00:50:42,620
Every brothel. – Mister…

743
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,700
This is my home…my country.

744
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:57,910
There are no Hindus or Muslims,
high or low caste.

745
00:50:58,590 --> 00:51:01,690
It’s our body…our will…

746
00:51:02,240 --> 00:51:04,180
…and our law goes around here.

747
00:51:06,570 --> 00:51:09,950
And I still don’t understand which India
and Pakistan you two are talking about.

748
00:51:10,380 --> 00:51:12,680
That teacher keeps tell me…

749
00:51:12,980 --> 00:51:16,830
About the ‘Congress’,
‘Muslim League’, ‘Nerhu…Jinnah’.

750
00:51:17,030 --> 00:51:19,400
Partition…etcetera.

751
00:51:20,110 --> 00:51:21,800
But this is just nonsense for us.

752
00:51:21,970 --> 00:51:23,250
Utter nonsense.

753
00:51:24,270 --> 00:51:25,640
Because we don’t care about…

754
00:51:25,720 --> 00:51:29,500
…what decisions those
rascals are taking in Delhi.

755
00:51:30,740 --> 00:51:33,510
This is our bread…this is our butter…

756
00:51:33,730 --> 00:51:35,690
It’s our home and our brothel.

757
00:51:39,930 --> 00:51:42,870
And before someone
can throw us out of here…

758
00:51:44,260 --> 00:51:46,940
We would rather…

759
00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:49,110
What do you guys say?

760
00:51:50,130 --> 00:51:51,370
Partition his hands and legs.

761
00:51:51,450 --> 00:51:52,850
You wretch.

762
00:51:54,930 --> 00:51:56,220
I will kil you.

763
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:58,030
Get your hands off!

764
00:51:58,110 --> 00:51:59,270
Keep it down.

765
00:51:59,350 --> 00:52:00,820
How dare you scare us?

766
00:52:00,900 --> 00:52:02,240
Run away.

767
00:52:16,340 --> 00:52:17,740
Salim!

768
00:52:19,810 --> 00:52:21,290
Guests!

769
00:52:30,430 --> 00:52:33,320
We were as polite as we could be.

770
00:52:34,450 --> 00:52:35,550
Come on.

771
00:52:35,630 --> 00:52:37,290
Goodbye, Begum Jaan.

772
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,040
You have a month’s time.

773
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:43,090
Only one month…get it.

774
00:52:44,390 --> 00:52:46,730
We know how to count a month, mister.

775
00:52:53,990 --> 00:52:55,360
Iliyas.

776
00:53:00,300 --> 00:53:02,030
Get lost…

777
00:53:02,410 --> 00:53:04,270
Run away.
- Get lost.

778
00:53:05,230 --> 00:53:06,560
Trying to scare us.

779
00:53:08,220 --> 00:53:09,760
Get lost.

780
00:53:35,750 --> 00:53:38,930
The brave woman, who's story I am going to tell you today…

781
00:53:39,010 --> 00:53:40,950
…her name was Razia Sultan.

782
00:53:41,420 --> 00:53:43,190
Pay attention, and sit properly.

783
00:53:45,910 --> 00:53:48,200
At a very young age, Razia knew…

784
00:53:48,350 --> 00:53:50,840
…that she had to take care of the kingdom when she grows up.

785
00:53:52,070 --> 00:53:54,170
The throne was her biggest strength…

786
00:53:54,500 --> 00:53:56,440
…and even her worst enemy.

787
00:53:56,940 --> 00:53:58,670
Because her own people didn’t want…

788
00:53:58,750 --> 00:54:01,070
…Razia to ascend the throne.

789
00:54:01,250 --> 00:54:02,870
But Razia was determined…

790
00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:06,890
…to do everything on her own strength, her will.

791
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:12,490
Amongst all the emperors, she was the only empress.

792
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:14,510
Razia Sultan.

793
00:54:15,370 --> 00:54:17,660
She prepared her own army.

794
00:54:17,900 --> 00:54:20,240
Carved a niche for herself in history.

795
00:54:21,390 --> 00:54:25,500
You must make yourself proud too when you grow up.

796
00:54:27,270 --> 00:54:29,240
How dare those scoundrels?

797
00:54:29,620 --> 00:54:31,830
They come and tell me, Begum Jaan…

798
00:54:31,910 --> 00:54:33,450
…that I’ll have to vacate my brothel!

799
00:54:34,690 --> 00:54:36,200
How dare they?

800
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:38,770
Control your anger, Begum Jaan…it’s not their fault.

801
00:54:39,690 --> 00:54:40,600
The order’s come from above.

802
00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:41,840
I don’t care where it came from.

803
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:44,830
How dare they stand in my brothel…

804
00:54:44,910 --> 00:54:46,890
…and gave me a month’s time.

805
00:54:47,730 --> 00:54:50,260
Teacher, you’ve connections in the political party.

806
00:54:50,580 --> 00:54:53,700
I want those two transferred in a month’s time.

807
00:54:54,370 --> 00:54:56,100
And you can do anything you want for that.

808
00:54:56,550 --> 00:54:59,190
If the demand is for girls, then I’ll arrange for that.

809
00:54:59,430 --> 00:55:00,530
Otherwise, I’ll go myself…

810
00:55:00,610 --> 00:55:03,070
Begum Jaan, not every problem has the same solution.

811
00:55:03,580 --> 00:55:05,150
I will show them.

812
00:55:05,230 --> 00:55:06,540
And they are from a different party.

813
00:55:09,700 --> 00:55:13,170
Look…I’ll go talk to the party high-command.

814
00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:15,490
We can at least try to go get a stay order…

815
00:55:15,650 --> 00:55:16,510
…and then we can look for a different place.

816
00:55:16,590 --> 00:55:19,430
It’s quite late…you must be hungry.

817
00:55:20,030 --> 00:55:24,140
How about you eat something first?

818
00:55:25,550 --> 00:55:26,890
I’ll take your leave now.

819
00:55:27,210 --> 00:55:28,870
And talk to the party high-command tomorrow.

820
00:55:29,540 --> 00:55:31,420
At least have dinner, teacher.

821
00:55:34,460 --> 00:55:35,620
I am not hungry.

822
00:55:39,180 --> 00:55:40,590
Don't you have a stomach-ache anymore?

823
00:55:40,670 --> 00:55:43,310
Standing there with a sad face.
Go get my hookah.

824
00:55:44,670 --> 00:55:46,510
I’ll speak to the teacher about you.

825
00:55:46,890 --> 00:55:49,090
Did she have to fall in love now?

826
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:53,860
Get out.

827
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:55,880
Get out.

828
00:55:56,660 --> 00:55:57,880
‘Curse you…’

829
00:55:58,030 --> 00:55:59,520
‘Don’t ever come back.’

830
00:56:01,990 --> 00:56:04,910
What’s wrong? Are you feeling okay?

831
00:56:05,670 --> 00:56:09,750
Begum Jaan, did you see a nightmare?

832
00:56:10,190 --> 00:56:12,460
Why were you scared?
What happened?

833
00:56:12,890 --> 00:56:15,570
We must send a message. – To whom?

834
00:56:15,650 --> 00:56:17,040
Dear? – To his highness.

835
00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:18,310
His highness?

836
00:56:21,170 --> 00:56:22,580
Begum Jaan…

837
00:56:42,180 --> 00:56:44,340
Half the expenses for the wood will be borne by Delhi.

838
00:56:45,060 --> 00:56:46,380
Give this over there.

839
00:56:54,610 --> 00:56:58,570
8 million…in Punjab alone.

840
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:01,530
According to official statistics.

841
00:57:03,150 --> 00:57:08,850
Better remember this…8 million homeless.

842
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:14,060
And we must tell the people why this is happening.

843
00:57:16,770 --> 00:57:20,150
Tell them about the millions of homeless, tell them about the dead bodies…

844
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:23,740
Tell them about the bloodshed, and everything.

845
00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:27,200
No one will leave their home otherwise.

846
00:57:28,810 --> 00:57:29,920
Of course, they will.

847
00:57:30,490 --> 00:57:33,170
The bloodshed in Amritsar, Allahabad, Ahmedabad, Bombay…

848
00:57:33,770 --> 00:57:36,170
All the things our boys have done there.

849
00:57:36,590 --> 00:57:39,440
When the Moslems in Dorangala find out…

850
00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:48,190
Sorry…

851
00:57:51,050 --> 00:57:56,170
Sorry. – Moslems…Mullah…

852
00:58:00,790 --> 00:58:01,900
Very good.

853
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:06,150
Even we have a number of tales, Hari Prasad.

854
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:13,200
But that night, when they were disrobing me…

855
00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:15,090
…I didn’t see your face in them.

856
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:18,120
And I still don't. – Then do it, Ilyas!

857
00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:20,400
Do it. It’s important.

858
00:58:21,890 --> 00:58:24,920
You must harbor hatred…you must harbor differences.

859
00:58:25,830 --> 00:58:28,190
Otherwise, you will never be able to do this job.

860
00:58:28,540 --> 00:58:31,100
Or live. – Fine.

861
00:58:32,580 --> 00:58:33,730
Let’s talk then.

862
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:37,990
If people cross the border, then that’s fine…

863
00:58:38,070 --> 00:58:40,080
People will have to move.

864
00:58:41,180 --> 00:58:44,140
“There’s a heave of sigh here…”

865
00:58:44,220 --> 00:58:46,820
“…and a heave of sigh there.”

866
00:58:47,300 --> 00:58:52,410
“Bravo this independence.”

867
00:58:53,540 --> 00:58:56,570
“There’s a heave of sigh here…”

868
00:58:56,650 --> 00:58:59,660
“…and a heave of sigh there.”

869
00:58:59,740 --> 00:59:05,080
“Bravo this independence.”

870
00:59:06,010 --> 00:59:11,990
“Your roofs…your lands.”

871
00:59:12,250 --> 00:59:18,220
“Your swords…and your borders.”

872
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:23,710
“Just tell me where is my home?”

873
00:59:24,630 --> 00:59:27,670
“There’s a heave of sigh here…”

874
00:59:27,750 --> 00:59:30,800
“…and a heave of sigh there.”

875
00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:35,610
“Bravo this independence.”

876
00:59:37,070 --> 00:59:40,460
“Independence…”

877
00:59:40,890 --> 00:59:43,300
“Independence…”

878
00:59:43,380 --> 00:59:46,320
“Independence…”

879
00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:50,740
“Independence…”

880
01:00:01,770 --> 01:00:05,020
“I left my veil hanging on the rope.”

881
01:00:05,100 --> 01:00:08,150
“I left my shirt hanging on the hangar..”

882
01:00:08,230 --> 01:00:14,110
“Where did I leave my honor.”

883
01:00:14,390 --> 01:00:17,510
“I left Allah in the dome.”

884
01:00:17,590 --> 01:00:20,600
“And the Lord in the differences.”

885
01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:26,350
“Where did I leave Ram?”

886
01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:29,930
“Where are the people who matter”

887
01:00:30,010 --> 01:00:32,850
“Where are the angels?”

888
01:00:32,930 --> 01:00:39,250
“Tell me where is that paradise.”

889
01:00:39,390 --> 01:00:45,480
"Find me that paradise, where is it?"

890
01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,100
“There’s a heave of sigh here…”

891
01:00:48,550 --> 01:00:51,280
“…and a heave of sigh there.”

892
01:00:51,730 --> 01:00:57,210
“Bravo this independence.”

893
01:00:57,950 --> 01:01:03,970
“Your knock…your fists…”

894
01:01:04,150 --> 01:01:10,280
“You can keep your soil.”

895
01:01:10,420 --> 01:01:16,570
“Tell me where is my home.”

896
01:01:16,650 --> 01:01:19,660
“There’s a heave of sigh here…”

897
01:01:19,740 --> 01:01:22,770
“…and a heave of sigh there.”

898
01:01:22,850 --> 01:01:28,940
“Bravo this independence.”

899
01:01:29,020 --> 01:01:31,270
“Independence…”

900
01:01:32,140 --> 01:01:34,400
“Independence…”

901
01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,200
“Independence…”

902
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:41,790
“Independence…”

903
01:01:41,870 --> 01:01:44,680
“Independence…”

904
01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:46,970
“Independence…”

905
01:01:47,300 --> 01:01:50,330
“Independence…”

906
01:01:50,830 --> 01:01:53,420
“Independence…”

907
01:02:25,850 --> 01:02:27,260
So just imagine your highness.

908
01:02:28,190 --> 01:02:30,810
He threatened me in my own home.

909
01:02:32,300 --> 01:02:33,930
And threatening me means…

910
01:02:34,310 --> 01:02:36,240
…threatening his highness’ servant.

911
01:02:38,370 --> 01:02:39,690
What is his name?

912
01:02:40,420 --> 01:02:43,570
Someone called Srivastav and Iliyas, your highness.

913
01:02:44,130 --> 01:02:47,760
And the inspectors of Dorangla and Shakkargarh…

914
01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:49,200
…also treat us quite unfairly.

915
01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:51,660
They are just mice.

916
01:02:52,170 --> 01:02:55,260
To bell the cat, I must go to Delhi.

917
01:02:57,130 --> 01:02:59,320
After all, they are government official.

918
01:02:59,700 --> 01:03:01,240
I’ll go…this week.

919
01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:04,400
Don’t worry, Begum Jaan.

920
01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,010
No one will bother you.

921
01:03:08,410 --> 01:03:10,040
Thank you, your highness.

922
01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:13,470
But please, your highness…

923
01:03:13,550 --> 01:03:16,710
…don’t get into a fit of rage and kill them.

924
01:03:18,430 --> 01:03:20,490
Their dismissal is enough.

925
01:03:21,090 --> 01:03:22,210
Your highness.

926
01:03:24,150 --> 01:03:27,220
And you brought so many gifts for everyone again.

927
01:03:28,010 --> 01:03:30,270
You’ve really pampered these girls.

928
01:03:30,350 --> 01:03:34,500
Well…the brothel stays closed for a couple of days because of me.

929
01:03:34,580 --> 01:03:37,350
After all, even I have some responsibility. - Oh, my…

930
01:03:37,580 --> 01:03:39,160
What are you saying, your highness.

931
01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:42,120
This brothel is all yours.
And so are the girls.

932
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:43,230
Even I…

933
01:03:50,710 --> 01:03:53,810
So…who should I present today?

934
01:03:54,190 --> 01:03:55,500
Gulabo?

935
01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:59,420
Or would you prefer Rubina or Lata?

936
01:04:01,150 --> 01:04:06,450
I’ve heard that there’s a new girl staying with you.

937
01:04:06,710 --> 01:04:08,590
But…I didn’t see her with the others.

938
01:04:09,570 --> 01:04:11,630
You've hidden her from us.

939
01:04:13,380 --> 01:04:14,990
No…

940
01:04:16,310 --> 01:04:19,580
Maybe Shabnum was playing outside.

941
01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:22,680
She’s been through a terrible ordeal, your highness.

942
01:04:22,970 --> 01:04:23,810
And so…

943
01:04:23,890 --> 01:04:27,790
I mean, she’s still not been educated…

944
01:04:27,870 --> 01:04:31,150
You stay safe here because of me.

945
01:04:34,270 --> 01:04:35,660
No one bothers you, because…

946
01:04:35,740 --> 01:04:37,430
…I’ve taken your responsibility.

947
01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:42,120
And foreigners and Governors, who spend their nights here…

948
01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:44,620
…don’t do it for free.

949
01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:51,320
In fact, even your taxes are paid from the royal treasury.

950
01:04:53,670 --> 01:04:54,530
Huh…

951
01:04:54,880 --> 01:04:58,890
And in return for all that, I want such a small thing…

952
01:05:02,610 --> 01:05:03,590
Yes, your highness.

953
01:05:27,820 --> 01:05:33,380
And yes Begum Jaan…my gramophone stopped working…

954
01:05:33,460 --> 01:05:35,730
…so I couldn’t bring it along.

955
01:05:36,660 --> 01:05:41,270
And you know that…

956
01:05:41,990 --> 01:05:49,690
…I can’t do anything until there’s no music.

957
01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:53,950
Your highness, you’re our benefactor.

958
01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:59,430
But I beg you, I cannot do this any longer.

959
01:05:59,790 --> 01:06:01,890
Don’t delay…

960
01:06:02,610 --> 01:06:04,580
Otherwise, it’ll delay my trip to Delhi.

961
01:06:33,340 --> 01:06:39,050
“O bearers…lower the palanquin.”

962
01:06:39,410 --> 01:06:44,170
“And wait for a minute.”

963
01:06:45,430 --> 01:06:48,380
“Let me hug them tightly…”

964
01:06:48,460 --> 01:06:55,880
“…and bless them from the bottom of my heart.”

965
01:06:56,670 --> 01:07:00,040
“Your bindi shimmers, bangles clinker…”

966
01:07:00,120 --> 01:07:02,600
“…and you’re glowing in the veil.”

967
01:07:02,820 --> 01:07:06,070
“May the kohl, the flowers are lovely…”

968
01:07:06,150 --> 01:07:08,710
“…and your courtyard’s covered in your fragrance.”

969
01:07:08,790 --> 01:07:12,170
“May your heart sway, when your beloved kisses you…”

970
01:07:12,250 --> 01:07:14,830
"…and your body and heart are thrilled."

971
01:07:14,910 --> 01:07:18,250
“May you be unharmed, untainted…”

972
01:07:18,330 --> 01:07:21,550
“…and every inch of your body glows.”

973
01:07:21,940 --> 01:07:28,830
“O bearers…lower the palanquin.”

974
01:07:40,810 --> 01:07:46,410
“I’ve laid the stars on your pillow.”

975
01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:52,910
“While the moon sings for you.”

976
01:07:52,990 --> 01:07:58,510
“The beautiful night queen…”

977
01:07:58,590 --> 01:08:04,530
“…sings lullabies at your window.”

978
01:08:04,610 --> 01:08:07,700
"Sleep my dear, sleep, my child."

979
01:08:07,780 --> 01:08:11,060
“Disappear from my eyes.”

980
01:08:11,330 --> 01:08:16,920
“O dawn…don’t wake me up yet.”

981
01:08:17,310 --> 01:08:22,020
“Wait a little longer.”

982
01:08:23,460 --> 01:08:29,310
“My slumber’s incomplete… and so is my dream…”

983
01:08:29,390 --> 01:08:34,460
“Let it be complete.”

984
01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:38,060
“Your bindi shimmers, bangles clinker…”

985
01:08:38,140 --> 01:08:40,630
“…and you’re glowing in the veil.”

986
01:08:40,800 --> 01:08:44,140
“May the kohl, the flowers are lovely…”

987
01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:50,180
“May your heart sway..."

988
01:08:51,180 --> 01:08:52,750
..."are thrilled."

989
01:08:52,950 --> 01:08:56,250
“May you be unharmed, untainted…”

990
01:09:08,790 --> 01:09:11,410
How are you, teacher? – It's not good, Begum Jaan.

991
01:09:11,670 --> 01:09:13,210
This is important.

992
01:09:14,210 --> 01:09:17,950
Say it then. Your lips are not sealed.

993
01:09:18,150 --> 01:09:21,170
Not here, can we go inside and talk?

994
01:09:21,620 --> 01:09:23,580
You’re too much, teacher.

995
01:09:24,090 --> 01:09:27,400
By the way, even I wanted to speak to you…

996
01:09:27,940 --> 01:09:29,180
About someone.

997
01:09:29,330 --> 01:09:31,280
You stay, I’ll go get some water.
- Come on.

998
01:09:33,630 --> 01:09:35,350
So, should I…

999
01:09:37,030 --> 01:09:39,770
Oh my, what’s wrong, teacher?

1000
01:09:42,570 --> 01:09:43,740
Listen, Begum Jaan.

1001
01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:46,450
I spoke to the party.

1002
01:09:47,340 --> 01:09:48,880
No pressure is going to work.

1003
01:09:51,070 --> 01:09:52,060
Meaning?

1004
01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:54,460
Meaning you must obey the orders.

1005
01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:58,090
I think it’s best you vacate this place.

1006
01:09:59,230 --> 01:10:00,740
You don’t know these people.

1007
01:10:01,130 --> 01:10:02,730
They can do anything under the pretext of government orders.

1008
01:10:02,810 --> 01:10:04,140
What government, master?

1009
01:10:04,580 --> 01:10:06,120
I am the government around here.

1010
01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:09,070
Why don’t you understand? You can be attacked.

1011
01:10:09,150 --> 01:10:13,850
You… such informality, teacher.

1012
01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:15,900
This is not informality, Begum…

1013
01:10:16,150 --> 01:10:17,970
I am worried…for you.

1014
01:10:18,940 --> 01:10:21,180
Worried? For me?

1015
01:10:23,750 --> 01:10:25,430
Since when?

1016
01:10:26,450 --> 01:10:27,850
I was always worried for you.

1017
01:10:28,290 --> 01:10:30,130
And I never got the chance to express it.

1018
01:10:31,410 --> 01:10:32,540
But now I do.

1019
01:10:33,130 --> 01:10:35,880
The opportunity to start a new life.

1020
01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:39,560
Listen…quit all this.

1021
01:10:40,380 --> 01:10:43,270
This brothel, this profession…this life.

1022
01:10:43,710 --> 01:10:44,910
And come with me.

1023
01:10:45,660 --> 01:10:47,150
Together we will… - We?

1024
01:11:16,540 --> 01:11:18,110
There’s a difference between sleeping together…

1025
01:11:18,190 --> 01:11:19,650
…and abiding by each other.

1026
01:11:21,430 --> 01:11:24,180
Begum Jaan, I… - You helped us a lot.

1027
01:11:25,420 --> 01:11:26,700
And I thank you for that.

1028
01:11:27,160 --> 01:11:28,770
But if I had known that…

1029
01:11:29,350 --> 01:11:31,530
…your motive behind it was this… - Begum!

1030
01:11:32,940 --> 01:11:35,200
Let me make one thing clear, teacher.

1031
01:11:36,660 --> 01:11:39,020
Begum is beyond your grasp.

1032
01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:42,300
But I really… - What nonsense, teacher.

1033
01:11:42,470 --> 01:11:46,580
Do you know there’s someone who can give her life for you!

1034
01:11:47,310 --> 01:11:49,720
I thought you wanted to talk about her.

1035
01:11:50,610 --> 01:11:53,350
I don’t understand what you really want.

1036
01:11:54,180 --> 01:11:56,870
I want you. – That’s enough, teacher.

1037
01:11:57,740 --> 01:11:59,570
You were with us during our good times…

1038
01:11:59,650 --> 01:12:02,620
…so, I don't want to be the reason for your bad luck.

1039
01:12:02,980 --> 01:12:04,850
Don’t ever come back here again!

1040
01:12:06,100 --> 01:12:08,550
Begum Jaan, you’re assaulting a police officer.

1041
01:12:08,630 --> 01:12:09,560
Better think about this.

1042
01:12:09,970 --> 01:12:11,530
I came here for your own interest.

1043
01:12:12,330 --> 01:12:14,160
You must vacate this brothel.

1044
01:12:15,350 --> 01:12:19,130
Yes… I'll see to it that you don't face any problems after that.

1045
01:12:19,630 --> 01:12:22,180
Is this your father’s brothel that you’ll evict us…

1046
01:12:22,850 --> 01:12:25,510
…or does your mother work here. – You b****

1047
01:12:25,670 --> 01:12:26,960
Mind your tongue.

1048
01:12:27,750 --> 01:12:30,360
You’re so stupid, Shyam Singh.

1049
01:12:30,780 --> 01:12:32,860
Doctors are called doctors, lawyers as lawyers…

1050
01:12:32,940 --> 01:12:34,980
…and prostitutes are called prostitutes.

1051
01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:36,710
That's not an abuse for us.

1052
01:12:37,120 --> 01:12:40,090
If you had called us a cop, then that would’ve been an abuse to us.

1053
01:12:42,890 --> 01:12:44,150
Salim.

1054
01:12:50,500 --> 01:12:52,970
Those who are blessed by the kings…

1055
01:12:53,690 --> 01:12:56,490
…don’t need the pawns to protect them.

1056
01:12:57,070 --> 01:12:58,620
Now get lost…

1057
01:12:59,700 --> 01:13:00,810
Get lost!

1058
01:13:06,760 --> 01:13:09,290
And then Begum Jaan tried to seduce me.

1059
01:13:09,850 --> 01:13:11,590
When I said that I love Gulabo…

1060
01:13:11,870 --> 01:13:12,860
..she had me thrown out of the house.

1061
01:13:12,940 --> 01:13:15,630
But Begum Jaan was saying that…
- You don’t trust me.

1062
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:20,530
I quit my home and town and fighting for you.

1063
01:13:21,730 --> 01:13:23,580
I even went against the party’s decision.

1064
01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:28,120
I keep thinking about you every moment.

1065
01:13:29,470 --> 01:13:35,500
In fact, I had to sneak up here to meet you.

1066
01:13:36,310 --> 01:13:37,870
And you don’t trust me.

1067
01:14:14,650 --> 01:14:16,830
We went there with the orders once before, sir.

1068
01:14:18,180 --> 01:14:20,320
But Mirza and his dogs bit us.

1069
01:14:21,850 --> 01:14:23,980
This time I even took few constables along.

1070
01:14:24,410 --> 01:14:26,840
But the king’s bodyguards were already present there.

1071
01:14:28,420 --> 01:14:29,750
Begum said…

1072
01:14:30,030 --> 01:14:31,900
Next time she will kill us…

1073
01:14:32,070 --> 01:14:34,050
…and hang us at the border’s check-post.

1074
01:14:34,590 --> 01:14:36,360
How can she hang you?

1075
01:14:37,960 --> 01:14:39,290
Not me, sir.

1076
01:14:39,610 --> 01:14:40,690
You…

1077
01:14:41,480 --> 01:14:42,690
The two of you.

1078
01:14:49,060 --> 01:14:51,370
Fine, leave. – Okay, sir.

1079
01:14:55,760 --> 01:14:57,490
If we don’t get rid of the brothel…

1080
01:14:58,570 --> 01:15:00,090
…it will stall the construction of the borderline.

1081
01:15:02,660 --> 01:15:04,740
And the king’s bodyguards are also stationed there now.

1082
01:15:04,820 --> 01:15:08,510
Iliyas, we must go to Sonapur.
– Why? What’s out there?

1083
01:15:13,730 --> 01:15:15,830
The solution to this problem.

1084
01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:22,740
Not all jobs can be done officially.

1085
01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:25,990
There are some unofficial employees…

1086
01:15:26,930 --> 01:15:28,940
…for certain matters.

1087
01:15:33,980 --> 01:15:35,430
Did you understand?

1088
01:15:39,260 --> 01:15:40,560
Did you understand?

1089
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:55,180
Get up.

1090
01:15:58,330 --> 01:16:00,540
Who were you with? – Don’t worry.

1091
01:16:00,870 --> 01:16:02,710
It wasn't one of your clients or your father.

1092
01:16:02,950 --> 01:16:07,660
Hey…bloody fool, don’t drag my father in this, get it.

1093
01:16:09,270 --> 01:16:11,630
Tell me…where did you go?

1094
01:16:11,860 --> 01:16:13,120
I won’t tell you.

1095
01:16:14,070 --> 01:16:15,420
What will you do?

1096
01:16:17,030 --> 01:16:18,450
If Begum Jaan finds out…

1097
01:16:18,730 --> 01:16:22,730
…that you’re in love with someone, then she will skin you alive.

1098
01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:29,220
Bloody sycophant, why are you always licking her boots?

1099
01:16:31,110 --> 01:16:32,570
Witch…

1100
01:16:34,310 --> 01:16:36,570
Who saved you when…

1101
01:16:37,150 --> 01:16:39,440
…those wolves had ganged up on you?

1102
01:16:40,560 --> 01:16:43,650
Rascal…how dare you slap me?

1103
01:16:43,820 --> 01:16:46,020
I will kill you!

1104
01:16:47,540 --> 01:16:49,870
You scheming b****...

1105
01:16:50,260 --> 01:16:51,220
Come here…

1106
01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:00,550
I will kill you.

1107
01:17:00,630 --> 01:17:02,330
Strangle you.

1108
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:18,230
Why are you crying now?

1109
01:17:35,710 --> 01:17:38,470
What do you get from this madness?

1110
01:17:39,490 --> 01:17:41,010
Begum Jaan took you in.

1111
01:17:42,300 --> 01:17:44,640
Would she wish you ill?

1112
01:17:47,930 --> 01:17:53,470
“Looking at the grinding stones, Kabir is lamenting.”

1113
01:17:54,770 --> 01:18:00,350
“In the duel of two wheels, nothing stays intact.”

1114
01:18:01,680 --> 01:18:05,260
Kabir…Double-duty, that’s my name.

1115
01:18:06,560 --> 01:18:08,670
I can be Hindu or Muslim.

1116
01:18:09,590 --> 01:18:11,590
Thread around my neck, and circumcision too.

1117
01:18:12,590 --> 01:18:15,710
I carry the priest's cap and the saint's hat as well.

1118
01:18:16,610 --> 01:18:20,260
I wouldn’t know in which area to create a riot and when.

1119
01:18:20,670 --> 01:18:25,520
But the boys are always ready on both sides.

1120
01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:29,440
They all have one religion. Money.

1121
01:18:30,560 --> 01:18:33,330
Job done…money earned.

1122
01:18:34,140 --> 01:18:36,120
Tell me whom to kill.

1123
01:18:37,420 --> 01:18:39,910
We want you to evict a manor. – Brothel.

1124
01:18:40,450 --> 01:18:42,090
Yes…brothel.

1125
01:18:42,780 --> 01:18:45,730
One between Dorangla and Shakkargarh.

1126
01:18:45,890 --> 01:18:47,130
That brothel.

1127
01:18:48,070 --> 01:18:50,610
Have you tried in every way you could?

1128
01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:54,840
Because once Kabir’s boys get started on a job…

1129
01:18:55,260 --> 01:18:56,650
I hope you get it.

1130
01:18:57,750 --> 01:18:59,520
We’ve done what we could.

1131
01:18:59,600 --> 01:19:01,850
Now you must take care of it. – Take care?

1132
01:19:02,080 --> 01:19:03,340
You mean kill them?

1133
01:19:03,630 --> 01:19:08,100
Should I shoot them or stab them or strangle them?

1134
01:19:11,580 --> 01:19:13,800
Or should we abduct and rape them?

1135
01:19:23,700 --> 01:19:25,450
Don’t worry about the money.

1136
01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:29,200
But…I don’t think we’ll need to do all that.

1137
01:19:30,820 --> 01:19:33,050
You’ll have few men from the police station, as well as guns.

1138
01:19:34,320 --> 01:19:36,110
Maybe by threatening or scaring them…

1139
01:19:36,770 --> 01:19:38,940
Otherwise, shoot them.

1140
01:19:40,960 --> 01:19:42,290
Just shoot them.

1141
01:19:43,600 --> 01:19:47,750
Soap, powder, lentil, rice…we’re nearly out of everything.

1142
01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:49,940
This time Lata will go with Sujeet.

1143
01:19:51,790 --> 01:19:53,600
I won’t carry those sacks alone.

1144
01:19:53,680 --> 01:19:54,840
You must come along.

1145
01:19:55,990 --> 01:19:58,790
I hardly get a square meal, I’ve no strength left.

1146
01:19:59,150 --> 01:20:01,120
You know that I am a vegetarian.

1147
01:20:01,600 --> 01:20:07,530
Lata…can’t vegetarians carry heavy burdens?

1148
01:20:09,210 --> 01:20:12,610
Cows, buffaloes, donkeys and elephants are all vegetarians.

1149
01:20:15,160 --> 01:20:16,580
Let it be.

1150
01:20:16,730 --> 01:20:18,710
Don’t try to educate me about food…

1151
01:20:18,790 --> 01:20:20,580
…when you don’t even know where you come from?

1152
01:20:20,810 --> 01:20:23,510
Lowlife… - Don’t comment on my caste.

1153
01:20:23,890 --> 01:20:25,260
At least we don’t throw our women…

1154
01:20:25,340 --> 01:20:27,360
…in the same pyre as their dead husband.

1155
01:20:27,440 --> 01:20:30,370
Did you forget how you came here running, half burnt?

1156
01:20:30,640 --> 01:20:32,340
You bloody...

1157
01:20:32,560 --> 01:20:34,180
I will yank your tongue out.

1158
01:20:34,850 --> 01:20:36,420
Stop fighting.

1159
01:20:36,500 --> 01:20:37,790
Or you won’t get to eat.

1160
01:20:37,870 --> 01:20:38,840
Jamila. – Yes.

1161
01:20:38,920 --> 01:20:41,220
Go get the meat which the villagers sent.

1162
01:20:41,300 --> 01:20:44,550
Why do you always fight with Amba over caste?

1163
01:20:45,370 --> 01:20:46,730
Jamila. – Yes, Begum Jaan.

1164
01:20:46,810 --> 01:20:48,300
The lentil was delicious.

1165
01:20:49,310 --> 01:20:51,420
Would you like some more, Begum Jaan?

1166
01:20:52,020 --> 01:20:55,410
Uncle Salim. Why don’t you teach us how to use a gun?

1167
01:20:55,720 --> 01:20:58,550
Your cop friends left their guns here last year…

1168
01:20:58,630 --> 01:21:00,070
…and they are just rotting here.

1169
01:21:00,330 --> 01:21:02,330
Take Begum Jaan’s permission, and I’ll teach you.

1170
01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:05,770
Begum Jaan…why don’t you say something?

1171
01:21:07,030 --> 01:21:11,010
Silly girl…we’re under the protection of the king.

1172
01:21:11,090 --> 01:21:13,630
As long as he’s alive, you don’t have to use the gun.

1173
01:21:13,770 --> 01:21:14,920
Postman.

1174
01:21:15,240 --> 01:21:16,070
Letter…

1175
01:21:16,150 --> 01:21:17,840
Jamila. Go check.

1176
01:21:20,770 --> 01:21:22,090
That was delicious.
- Onions?

1177
01:21:22,490 --> 01:21:23,690
It’s been really long since…

1178
01:21:23,770 --> 01:21:26,490
…Jamila made her famous oat-brans.

1179
01:21:26,810 --> 01:21:28,200
Sujeet, give me some water.

1180
01:21:28,990 --> 01:21:29,720
Here you go.

1181
01:21:30,110 --> 01:21:31,130
Wash your ears.

1182
01:21:33,870 --> 01:21:35,050
Here…

1183
01:21:40,850 --> 01:21:41,780
Begum Jaan.

1184
01:21:41,950 --> 01:21:43,150
Begum Jaan.

1185
01:21:43,340 --> 01:21:44,660
Begum Jaan. – What happened?

1186
01:21:45,040 --> 01:21:46,310
Watch it...

1187
01:21:46,640 --> 01:21:48,290
Someone tell me what's happening!

1188
01:21:48,510 --> 01:21:50,140
Rascals.
- What happened?

1189
01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:51,580
Salim uncle.

1190
01:21:55,000 --> 01:21:57,090
Salim... Salim.

1191
01:22:03,250 --> 01:22:04,750
“Greetings, Begum Jaan.”

1192
01:22:05,170 --> 01:22:07,800
“I hope you all liked the meat today.”

1193
01:22:07,880 --> 01:22:09,140
“Wasn’t it nice?”

1194
01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:11,750
“I knew right away…”

1195
01:22:12,230 --> 01:22:14,390
“…that Shekhu’s full of meat.”

1196
01:22:16,190 --> 01:22:19,880
“I don’t know how spicy you like your meat.”

1197
01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:22,560
“So I cooked it according to my preference.”

1198
01:22:23,550 --> 01:22:25,800
“But I left Bhaloo for you guys.”

1199
01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:29,550
“You can cook him like you want.”

1200
01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:32,700
“One more thing, Begum Jaan.”

1201
01:22:33,290 --> 01:22:35,480
“You must vacate this brothel now.”

1202
01:22:36,360 --> 01:22:37,980
“After all, two countries are going to be formed.”

1203
01:22:38,740 --> 01:22:41,830
“So you must make a sacrifice, like Shekhu.”

1204
01:22:42,270 --> 01:22:43,650
Peace be upon you.

1205
01:22:44,110 --> 01:22:45,380
Yours Kabir.

1206
01:22:45,460 --> 01:22:46,380
Brother Salim!

1207
01:22:46,850 --> 01:22:49,620
Brother Salim!

1208
01:22:49,700 --> 01:22:53,120
It was my responsibility to protect the children! - Brother Salim!

1209
01:22:53,200 --> 01:22:56,170
It was my responsibility to protect the children! - Brother Salim!

1210
01:22:56,770 --> 01:23:00,000
It was my responsibility to protect the children!

1211
01:23:01,490 --> 01:23:03,270
It was mine…

1212
01:23:04,120 --> 01:23:05,560
It was mine…

1213
01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:10,900
Will Kabir stay quiet after threatening them?

1214
01:23:17,150 --> 01:23:18,660
Can’t we reason with the king…

1215
01:23:18,740 --> 01:23:20,480
…and get Begum Jaan out of here?

1216
01:23:20,560 --> 01:23:21,880
It won’t make a difference.

1217
01:23:23,000 --> 01:23:24,920
Do you think that a century later…

1218
01:23:25,160 --> 01:23:28,160
…when the children will read about the partition…

1219
01:23:28,500 --> 01:23:31,400
…it will contain stories about you, me, or Begum Jaan?

1220
01:23:32,220 --> 01:23:34,430
Who talks about pawns in history?

1221
01:23:35,830 --> 01:23:38,980
They only talk about emperors.

1222
01:23:41,520 --> 01:23:43,650
But I am not talking about a century later.

1223
01:23:44,780 --> 01:23:46,770
I am talking about this time…now.

1224
01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:50,250
Ilyas' is in agony.

1225
01:23:50,580 --> 01:23:53,430
Yes, Ilyas is in agony…for a bunch of prostitutes.

1226
01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:54,980
Isn’t that what you mean?

1227
01:23:55,060 --> 01:23:56,690
Iliyas…

1228
01:23:59,690 --> 01:24:02,760
In order to uproot Begum Jaan’s brothel…

1229
01:24:03,050 --> 01:24:06,000
…we won’t have to give a speech or cause a riot.

1230
01:24:06,080 --> 01:24:07,670
At least in these two areas…

1231
01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:12,860
In order to save countless lives…

1232
01:24:13,960 --> 01:24:15,930
…we’ll have to sacrifice some lives.

1233
01:24:16,510 --> 01:24:19,680
Consider that today is Eid.

1234
01:24:21,870 --> 01:24:22,940
Bakri-Eid.

1235
01:24:36,980 --> 01:24:38,720
Bunch of cowards!

1236
01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:40,360
Butchering speechless animals…

1237
01:24:40,820 --> 01:24:41,970
Cowards!

1238
01:24:42,170 --> 01:24:45,020
I will skin them alive, make a whip out of it…

1239
01:24:45,100 --> 01:24:46,000
…and flog them with it.

1240
01:24:46,550 --> 01:24:48,940
Promise me…you won’t spare them.

1241
01:24:51,840 --> 01:24:53,830
I raised them since…they were pups…

1242
01:24:55,260 --> 01:24:56,860
In rain, in winter.

1243
01:24:57,730 --> 01:24:59,730
I would wipe their bodies and feed them milk…

1244
01:25:02,190 --> 01:25:03,390
What’s wrong with your throat?

1245
01:25:03,640 --> 01:25:06,580
Shekhu’s hair…it’s stuck in my throat.

1246
01:25:08,380 --> 01:25:10,020
It’s just your imagination.

1247
01:25:10,270 --> 01:25:13,110
No…it’s there…it’s there.

1248
01:25:13,820 --> 01:25:15,920
I can’t even swallow it.

1249
01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:20,160
“While leaving the city of Lucknow…”

1250
01:25:21,950 --> 01:25:24,740
“…don’t ask about my plight.”

1251
01:25:27,640 --> 01:25:31,880
I think…you must all leave too.

1252
01:25:33,060 --> 01:25:34,160
What?

1253
01:25:36,050 --> 01:25:37,860
Times are changing.

1254
01:25:41,070 --> 01:25:44,600
I…I went to Delhi.

1255
01:25:46,590 --> 01:25:49,610
Everything will be over soon.

1256
01:25:50,430 --> 01:25:53,410
I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.

1257
01:25:53,490 --> 01:25:55,590
Even the king of Junagarh was in Delhi.

1258
01:25:56,810 --> 01:25:59,010
Kashmir and Hyderabad have been told that…

1259
01:25:59,090 --> 01:26:02,610
…they must choose a side they want to live in.

1260
01:26:05,090 --> 01:26:06,340
So…

1261
01:26:07,540 --> 01:26:09,550
What does that mean?

1262
01:26:10,190 --> 01:26:11,920
Kings will always remain kings.

1263
01:26:12,910 --> 01:26:15,990
Whether it’s in India or… What’s it called?

1264
01:26:16,070 --> 01:26:18,060
Pakistan.
- Begum Jaan,...

1265
01:26:18,850 --> 01:26:21,460
kings are not the rulers anymore.

1266
01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:26,440
The people will be the kings now.

1267
01:26:29,450 --> 01:26:31,480
Delhi and Karachi have only one motive.

1268
01:26:31,770 --> 01:26:32,560
In a couple of years…

1269
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:35,900
…all the kingdoms and estates will belong to the government.

1270
01:26:39,090 --> 01:26:40,040
And you?

1271
01:26:42,890 --> 01:26:45,090
We’ll be mere pawns.

1272
01:26:46,630 --> 01:26:49,180
You know the condition of the royal treasure.

1273
01:26:50,230 --> 01:26:53,710
People are declining, items are being sold.

1274
01:26:54,230 --> 01:26:58,880
And we’re also facing many legal cases. – So now?

1275
01:27:05,820 --> 01:27:10,660
Begum…listen to the government.

1276
01:27:11,520 --> 01:27:13,460
Leave this brothel.

1277
01:27:16,050 --> 01:27:20,680
I cannot protect you anymore.

1278
01:27:32,140 --> 01:27:34,400
Well…I don’t think anything’s in your control anymore.

1279
01:27:35,510 --> 01:27:39,060
Even if I sing today, you won’t be able to do anything.

1280
01:27:39,390 --> 01:27:40,870
Begum… - Salim!

1281
01:27:45,150 --> 01:27:46,410
Yes, Begum Jaan.

1282
01:27:46,650 --> 01:27:49,870
Salim, the king is very tired.

1283
01:27:50,490 --> 01:27:51,850
Take him to his room.

1284
01:27:52,280 --> 01:27:53,710
He needs rest.

1285
01:27:54,230 --> 01:27:57,810
And he’ll be leaving soon, so make all the arrangements.

1286
01:27:59,100 --> 01:28:01,790
You’ll die a terrible death, Begum.

1287
01:28:03,840 --> 01:28:08,370
Whatever…I'll die like a queen and not a beggar.

1288
01:28:08,730 --> 01:28:10,160
In my house.

1289
01:28:11,740 --> 01:28:18,490
“You sneak up to my threshold.”

1290
01:28:18,570 --> 01:28:25,480
“With a wounded heart…and barren heartbeat.”

1291
01:28:25,560 --> 01:28:31,800
“With a wounded heart…and barren heartbeat.”

1292
01:28:32,170 --> 01:28:39,080
“When I applied ointment on your wounds…”

1293
01:28:39,160 --> 01:28:45,810
“…it opened up my wounds.”

1294
01:28:45,890 --> 01:28:49,340
“What has happened?”

1295
01:28:49,420 --> 01:28:56,230
“I fell so deeply… in love with you.”

1296
01:28:56,310 --> 01:29:02,700
“The old memories were refreshed again.”

1297
01:29:03,050 --> 01:29:06,100
“What has happened?”

1298
01:29:06,470 --> 01:29:10,120
“I fell so deeply…

1299
01:29:12,420 --> 01:29:13,530
You’re learning how to fire a gun…

1300
01:29:13,610 --> 01:29:14,640
…not wash clothes.

1301
01:29:14,720 --> 01:29:15,780
Hold it properly.

1302
01:29:16,310 --> 01:29:17,240
Hold it.

1303
01:29:19,370 --> 01:29:20,410
Bravo, Rubina.

1304
01:29:24,360 --> 01:29:25,220
You’re fine.

1305
01:29:26,110 --> 01:29:27,060
Nice.

1306
01:29:30,490 --> 01:29:32,700
This b*** is very heavy, Salim.

1307
01:29:33,010 --> 01:29:35,890
My dagger’s much better.
– Don’t joke, Begum Jaan.

1308
01:29:36,330 --> 01:29:38,400
Shoulder straight, strong grip, clear view.

1309
01:29:39,240 --> 01:29:40,170
Come on.

1310
01:29:40,710 --> 01:29:41,810
Pull it back…

1311
01:29:45,760 --> 01:29:47,200
Bloody horse’s leg…

1312
01:29:47,370 --> 01:29:48,590
Careful.

1313
01:29:52,180 --> 01:29:53,210
Bravo.

1314
01:29:55,620 --> 01:29:56,850
Nice.

1315
01:30:05,470 --> 01:30:06,620
Good one.

1316
01:30:10,350 --> 01:30:13,200
If Begum Jaan finds out Laadli’s with us…

1317
01:30:13,280 --> 01:30:14,900
…she will skin us all alive.

1318
01:30:15,110 --> 01:30:16,250
What can I do?

1319
01:30:16,390 --> 01:30:20,670
Jamila said to take her out, she was feeling very lonely in the house.

1320
01:30:20,820 --> 01:30:22,060
If she says anything, then you’ll have to handle her.

1321
01:30:22,140 --> 01:30:24,700
Since Shekhu-Bhaloo died…

1322
01:30:25,040 --> 01:30:27,630
…the place feels like a graveyard.

1323
01:30:28,220 --> 01:30:29,850
Hurry up, it will be sunset soon.

1324
01:30:34,840 --> 01:30:36,330
How much for the tomatoes?

1325
01:30:37,570 --> 01:30:39,190
Laadli, look here.

1326
01:30:51,820 --> 01:30:53,900
Like this…
Pull it back push…

1327
01:30:54,090 --> 01:30:55,980
You have to push it with your might.

1328
01:30:56,340 --> 01:30:57,520
Take aim.

1329
01:30:58,070 --> 01:30:59,640
Steady aim.

1330
01:31:00,050 --> 01:31:01,630
Keep your shoulders steady.
- Like this.

1331
01:31:07,860 --> 01:31:09,160
Begum Jaan!

1332
01:31:11,640 --> 01:31:12,550
Gulabo.

1333
01:31:12,630 --> 01:31:14,190
Begum Jaan!

1334
01:31:19,410 --> 01:31:20,900
This is how you load a bullet.

1335
01:31:23,670 --> 01:31:26,510
Bravo, Gulabo.

1336
01:31:26,730 --> 01:31:27,940
Great.

1337
01:31:30,610 --> 01:31:32,050
Laadli, did you have fun?

1338
01:31:37,740 --> 01:31:39,620
Hurry up. – What happened?

1339
01:31:39,920 --> 01:31:40,800
Walk faster.

1340
01:31:40,880 --> 01:31:41,870
What happened?

1341
01:31:43,580 --> 01:31:44,680
What’s wrong?

1342
01:31:46,530 --> 01:31:48,120
Walk faster. Walk faster.

1343
01:31:48,950 --> 01:31:50,830
Walk faster. Walk faster. – But what happened?

1344
01:31:50,910 --> 01:31:52,620
What’s wrong?
- Don’t look back. Just walk faster.

1345
01:31:52,800 --> 01:31:54,590
Walk… - What happened?

1346
01:31:54,780 --> 01:31:56,000
Run! Run!

1347
01:31:56,600 --> 01:31:58,000
Run Laadli. - Run.

1348
01:32:02,170 --> 01:32:04,240
Come on. – Sujeet.

1349
01:32:09,260 --> 01:32:11,230
Run. – Come on…

1350
01:32:13,750 --> 01:32:14,630
Come on…

1351
01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:19,470
Come on, hurry up…hurry up.

1352
01:32:35,670 --> 01:32:37,370
What happened? What happened?

1353
01:32:38,290 --> 01:32:39,360
Come on.

1354
01:33:28,450 --> 01:33:30,010
Sit…sit down…

1355
01:33:31,260 --> 01:33:32,320
Be quite..

1356
01:33:34,660 --> 01:33:36,910
Are…are they going to kill us.

1357
01:33:37,550 --> 01:33:39,850
Listen…I think they went that way.

1358
01:33:39,930 --> 01:33:42,210
There’s a lane up ahead. Let’s get out through there.

1359
01:33:42,290 --> 01:33:44,500
No-no, they went that way.

1360
01:33:44,710 --> 01:33:47,000
So you go this way. – Leaving you alone.

1361
01:33:47,380 --> 01:33:49,080
I would rather die than leave you alone.

1362
01:33:49,160 --> 01:33:51,260
Stop arguing, just do as I said.

1363
01:33:51,730 --> 01:33:54,340
Go…or else I’ll die.

1364
01:33:54,830 --> 01:33:56,510
I told you we shouldn’t come here.

1365
01:33:57,060 --> 01:33:58,570
Now, these people will kill us.

1366
01:33:59,570 --> 01:34:00,280
Will you shut up?

1367
01:34:00,360 --> 01:34:01,750
Always crying…

1368
01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:25,800
Come on…
Come…

1369
01:34:26,870 --> 01:34:29,970
Let me go. Let me go.

1370
01:34:30,520 --> 01:34:32,200
Sujeet… - I beg you.

1371
01:34:32,280 --> 01:34:34,750
I am just a kid, I haven’t done anything.

1372
01:34:35,440 --> 01:34:37,770
Rubina, let’s go.
- I told you that I won’t go.

1373
01:34:38,050 --> 01:34:39,850
But no one ever listens to me.

1374
01:34:40,470 --> 01:34:43,440
Listen, brother, I've nothing to do with them.

1375
01:34:43,740 --> 01:34:45,030
Let me go.

1376
01:34:55,010 --> 01:34:59,230
Why did you send me away…forever?

1377
01:35:02,380 --> 01:35:06,070
What will Ruby do…without you?

1378
01:35:06,360 --> 01:35:07,770
Tell me.

1379
01:35:10,180 --> 01:35:12,570
Don’t you want to settle down?

1380
01:35:15,090 --> 01:35:19,490
Don’t go Sujeet. Don’t go.

1381
01:35:22,510 --> 01:35:26,890
I…love you.

1382
01:35:30,830 --> 01:35:32,420
I love you!

1383
01:35:39,330 --> 01:35:41,040
I love you!

1384
01:36:56,250 --> 01:36:57,930
I opened this brothel.

1385
01:36:58,890 --> 01:37:00,690
And all of you came here one after another.

1386
01:37:01,330 --> 01:37:04,350
You got work…business settled…

1387
01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:08,550
Lata…remember.

1388
01:37:09,030 --> 01:37:11,040
You weren’t agreeing.

1389
01:37:12,480 --> 01:37:14,060
I remember, Begum Jaan.

1390
01:37:15,100 --> 01:37:17,270
And I also remember your dagger.

1391
01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:22,160
And Rani. Hiding behind your veil.

1392
01:37:22,980 --> 01:37:26,520
You were scared out of your wits seeing blood for the first time.

1393
01:37:27,740 --> 01:37:31,070
Begum Jaan, you’re too much… - Of course, you’ve grown up now.

1394
01:37:31,150 --> 01:37:32,580
Feeling embarrassed.

1395
01:37:35,500 --> 01:37:39,690
And Maina-Amba. I had to pay a high price for you two.

1396
01:37:39,980 --> 01:37:41,970
Almost emptied my purse.

1397
01:37:44,910 --> 01:37:47,120
That was one stormy night.

1398
01:37:49,010 --> 01:37:52,590
Covered in fever, these two were blabbering all the time.

1399
01:37:52,670 --> 01:37:54,320
That’s nothing new.

1400
01:37:54,540 --> 01:37:57,950
These two still blabber all the time.

1401
01:37:58,860 --> 01:38:00,440
Blabber-mouths of this brothel.

1402
01:38:00,700 --> 01:38:04,530
Jamila…this isn’t a brothel.

1403
01:38:05,760 --> 01:38:07,030
It’s our home.

1404
01:38:09,360 --> 01:38:13,510
We never got so much freedom in our own home.

1405
01:38:13,700 --> 01:38:14,820
Freedom.

1406
01:38:16,650 --> 01:38:18,800
Nonsense.

1407
01:38:20,650 --> 01:38:25,840
Now see…two countries are playing the game of independence.

1408
01:38:26,550 --> 01:38:29,390
And so we must vacate our home.

1409
01:38:31,600 --> 01:38:35,090
Our home…our land.

1410
01:38:37,440 --> 01:38:40,050
The place from where I left as a bride.

1411
01:38:42,680 --> 01:38:44,830
And returned as a courtesan.

1412
01:38:47,620 --> 01:38:51,000
Where I even decided my burial place.

1413
01:38:53,460 --> 01:38:54,810
There…

1414
01:38:59,220 --> 01:39:01,220
For years I sold my flesh.

1415
01:39:02,730 --> 01:39:05,670
Never thought some day we’ll have to divide it some day.

1416
01:39:09,400 --> 01:39:11,560
Our bodies will be partitioned.

1417
01:39:16,060 --> 01:39:19,510
Bloody rascals… I am not going to leave this house.

1418
01:39:20,120 --> 01:39:23,990
I don’t need a man…I can protect this place alone.

1419
01:39:26,470 --> 01:39:29,850
But you must… the rest of you, you must leave.

1420
01:39:29,970 --> 01:39:32,790
Go where? You think our families will take us back. - Leave.

1421
01:39:32,870 --> 01:39:34,420
They have even forgotten our names.

1422
01:39:35,350 --> 01:39:37,110
And those villagers.

1423
01:39:37,830 --> 01:39:38,860
Those pandits.

1424
01:39:39,560 --> 01:39:41,900
During the day, they will stay away from my shadows.

1425
01:39:42,080 --> 01:39:44,460
And at night, they will sc*** me!

1426
01:39:45,540 --> 01:39:46,810
You’re a woman too.

1427
01:39:47,170 --> 01:39:50,480
You know very well…whether it’s a queen or a prostitute.

1428
01:39:50,730 --> 01:39:54,240
It’s always the men who are in control.
– Amba, why don’t you understand?

1429
01:39:54,480 --> 01:39:57,220
There’s nothing left to understand, Begum Jaan.

1430
01:39:59,840 --> 01:40:02,710
They sliced my Sujeet in four pieces.

1431
01:40:04,690 --> 01:40:08,300
We won’t leave without finishing this war.

1432
01:40:08,380 --> 01:40:11,560
Yes, Begum. This brothel belongs to us as well.

1433
01:40:11,850 --> 01:40:15,160
Now if we leave, then what about you?

1434
01:40:15,710 --> 01:40:16,690
Do you remember?

1435
01:40:17,810 --> 01:40:21,590
So it's best that we all stay here and fight our battles.

1436
01:40:21,670 --> 01:40:22,930
She is right.

1437
01:40:25,790 --> 01:40:29,700
But we must get Laadli and Shabnum out of here, at any cost.

1438
01:40:30,080 --> 01:40:31,260
And you too, aunty.

1439
01:40:32,230 --> 01:40:35,330
The son I gave birth to…

1440
01:40:36,480 --> 01:40:41,160
…he left me at the banks of Benares, helpless and alone. – Aunty…

1441
01:40:41,540 --> 01:40:42,470
Don’t rake up the past.

1442
01:40:42,550 --> 01:40:45,390
It was you dear, who helped me.

1443
01:40:46,040 --> 01:40:47,930
You held my hand.

1444
01:40:48,650 --> 01:40:51,060
Do you want to throw me out now?

1445
01:40:51,140 --> 01:40:54,250
Fine…fine…there’s no point in arguing with you.

1446
01:40:55,250 --> 01:40:59,520
But Shabnum and Laadli must leave… - Laadli won’t go.

1447
01:41:00,300 --> 01:41:01,750
She will stay here.

1448
01:41:02,620 --> 01:41:04,350
This is her home too.

1449
01:41:05,430 --> 01:41:07,400
She was born here, Begum Jaan.

1450
01:41:07,550 --> 01:41:12,510
And that’s why… - She is your child too.

1451
01:41:13,500 --> 01:41:15,570
All of you raised her together.

1452
01:41:17,220 --> 01:41:22,470
So we’ll all go with Laadli, or no one goes.

1453
01:41:22,550 --> 01:41:25,780
Jamila… - I’ve made up my mind, that’s it.

1454
01:41:27,580 --> 01:41:29,800
Why are you all so stubborn?

1455
01:41:32,270 --> 01:41:33,980
You don’t understand.

1456
01:41:40,070 --> 01:41:41,090
Okay, listen.

1457
01:41:42,630 --> 01:41:44,820
Until the situation doesn’t get better…

1458
01:41:45,130 --> 01:41:47,870
…take both of them to Guruji in Lucknow.

1459
01:41:47,950 --> 01:41:49,400
I won’t go…
- Listen to me.

1460
01:41:50,670 --> 01:41:53,130
This place is not safe for children anymore.

1461
01:42:22,400 --> 01:42:23,460
Gulabo, hurry up!

1462
01:42:23,540 --> 01:42:24,910
Gulabo, hurry up!

1463
01:43:03,100 --> 01:43:04,960
Did you write everything in the letter to Begum Jaan?

1464
01:43:05,220 --> 01:43:07,480
Yes…everything.

1465
01:43:08,280 --> 01:43:09,650
I left nothing.

1466
01:43:10,650 --> 01:43:11,680
Let’s go.

1467
01:43:12,210 --> 01:43:13,280
There are some things left.

1468
01:43:17,120 --> 01:43:18,740
Might as well finish that too.

1469
01:43:23,970 --> 01:43:24,960
In letter...

1470
01:43:26,970 --> 01:43:34,190
You only wrote about buyers, business…teacher…atrocity…

1471
01:43:36,580 --> 01:43:44,950
But not about how I nursed you back to health.

1472
01:43:47,410 --> 01:43:54,240
Nor about how I massaged you all night when you were pregnant.

1473
01:43:56,070 --> 01:43:57,670
You didn’t mention that either.

1474
01:44:00,910 --> 01:44:02,830
Talking for months.

1475
01:44:04,150 --> 01:44:07,180
Stop you from committing suicide four times.

1476
01:44:11,300 --> 01:44:13,800
You forgot to write a lot of things in the letter.

1477
01:44:15,520 --> 01:44:20,500
Feeding a goat at the butcher's shop is just feeding him.

1478
01:44:20,580 --> 01:44:21,570
And not love.

1479
01:44:21,890 --> 01:44:24,440
You bloody traitor! – Salim.

1480
01:44:29,580 --> 01:44:31,110
She has grown up now.

1481
01:44:33,880 --> 01:44:34,840
Let her go.

1482
01:45:43,420 --> 01:45:45,350
Salim. Something doesn’t feel right. – Yes, Begum Jaan.

1483
01:45:45,430 --> 01:45:46,300
Me too.

1484
01:45:46,570 --> 01:45:48,270
Are the guns ready? – Of course, Begum Jaan.

1485
01:45:48,350 --> 01:45:49,930
And the ammunitions? – They are all ready.

1486
01:45:50,390 --> 01:45:51,590
Let’s wake up everyone.

1487
01:45:52,310 --> 01:45:56,020
Jamila. Rubina. Aunty…

1488
01:46:02,020 --> 01:46:03,000
Hurry up.

1489
01:46:05,910 --> 01:46:08,490
Leave now…there’s danger on the way.

1490
01:46:12,140 --> 01:46:13,330
Forgive me Gulabo, but…

1491
01:46:13,510 --> 01:46:17,270
…I want to see that arrogant Begum Jaan die twice.

1492
01:46:19,110 --> 01:46:23,920
Once when you…betrayed her.

1493
01:46:25,690 --> 01:46:29,070
And now…when she will actually get shot.

1494
01:46:31,010 --> 01:46:34,470
But…marriage?

1495
01:46:38,710 --> 01:46:45,070
Gulabo, prostitutes only have buyers…not husbands.

1496
01:47:20,210 --> 01:47:21,680
Aunty…

1497
01:47:36,780 --> 01:47:39,050
Jamila, leave immediately
with these two.

1498
01:47:39,500 --> 01:47:41,760
I won’t go anywhere.
- What do you mean?

1499
01:47:41,840 --> 01:47:42,700
It was decided yesterday…

1500
01:47:42,780 --> 01:47:44,260
…that you will go to
Lucknow with these two.

1501
01:47:44,460 --> 01:47:45,400
I won’t go anywhere, Begum Jaan.

1502
01:47:45,480 --> 01:47:47,180
I won’t leave all of
you alone in this situation.

1503
01:47:47,260 --> 01:47:50,300
Jamila, Begum Jaan
told you to leave now.

1504
01:47:50,530 --> 01:47:51,420
Just because we didn’t
give birth to her…

1505
01:47:51,500 --> 01:47:52,520
…doesn't mean we have no right to her.

1506
01:47:52,600 --> 01:47:54,730
How can I leave? I will
leave with all of you. - Quiet.

1507
01:47:54,810 --> 01:47:57,230
Jamila, stop arguing and leave.

1508
01:47:59,880 --> 01:48:02,010
Enough. Quiet.

1509
01:48:02,240 --> 01:48:04,220
Jamila, this is no time to argue.

1510
01:48:04,620 --> 01:48:06,790
Leave now with Laadli and
Shabnum through the back door.

1511
01:48:06,870 --> 01:48:08,170
We can be attacked at any time.

1512
01:48:08,990 --> 01:48:09,910
Salim.

1513
01:48:09,990 --> 01:48:11,480
Bas***

1514
01:48:11,890 --> 01:48:13,420
Jamila, leave now

1515
01:48:14,790 --> 01:48:16,080
Aunty, get out of here!

1516
01:48:17,200 --> 01:48:18,790
Aim properly, guys.

1517
01:48:18,920 --> 01:48:19,670
Rubina.

1518
01:48:19,750 --> 01:48:21,020
Salim, careful.

1519
01:48:22,010 --> 01:48:22,940
Careful.

1520
01:48:24,790 --> 01:48:27,840
Is she your wife. Shoot them!

1521
01:48:33,020 --> 01:48:35,550
Be careful, they're firing!

1522
01:48:37,770 --> 01:48:40,280
Take cover.
- They only have two-three guns.

1523
01:48:40,780 --> 01:48:42,130
Shoot them.

1524
01:48:44,420 --> 01:48:48,420
Useless… all of you go and
mix up with those prostitutes.

1525
01:48:48,500 --> 01:48:49,790
Salim…

1526
01:48:51,430 --> 01:48:52,630
Give bullets0.

1527
01:48:57,850 --> 01:49:00,130
Careful. Look out.

1528
01:49:29,370 --> 01:49:31,680
Rubina. Careful.

1529
01:49:32,060 --> 01:49:33,390
Amba…

1530
01:49:40,740 --> 01:49:42,490
Bloody rascals.

1531
01:49:43,230 --> 01:49:45,130
Come on, guys…hurry up.

1532
01:49:45,400 --> 01:49:47,040
Come on, get down.

1533
01:49:47,120 --> 01:49:49,450
Get this over with quickly.

1534
01:49:49,940 --> 01:49:51,240
You b******s.

1535
01:49:51,660 --> 01:49:53,320
Rani, be careful!

1536
01:49:57,730 --> 01:50:01,360
Bloody rascals!

1537
01:50:01,440 --> 01:50:03,700
Bloody rascals!

1538
01:50:12,460 --> 01:50:13,740
Lata…

1539
01:50:16,470 --> 01:50:19,120
Bloody lowly woman.

1540
01:50:30,700 --> 01:50:32,910
What’s the hurry?

1541
01:51:32,910 --> 01:51:33,740
Hey…

1542
01:51:50,900 --> 01:51:52,770
It was a mistake. Mistake…

1543
01:51:52,910 --> 01:51:55,370
Look…look…mistake…I made a mistake.

1544
01:53:22,490 --> 01:53:25,220
Prostitutes might not have husbands.

1545
01:53:25,990 --> 01:53:27,760
But they do have daughters.

1546
01:53:53,290 --> 01:53:54,470
Begum Jaan.

1547
01:53:55,120 --> 01:53:56,150
Begum Jaan.

1548
01:53:57,550 --> 01:53:58,540
Salim.

1549
01:54:00,090 --> 01:54:01,280
I can’t see anything.

1550
01:54:01,360 --> 01:54:02,520
It’s all quiet.

1551
01:54:03,370 --> 01:54:04,600
Amba. - Yes.

1552
01:54:07,440 --> 01:54:10,520
Amba…careful.

1553
01:54:13,900 --> 01:54:15,560
Come…welcome.

1554
01:54:15,740 --> 01:54:17,430
We were waiting for you.

1555
01:54:17,940 --> 01:54:20,950
Kabir, when did this happen?

1556
01:54:21,680 --> 01:54:25,600
You see sir, it’s hard to
predict when an incident might occur.

1557
01:54:37,310 --> 01:54:38,380
Begum Jaan.

1558
01:54:42,030 --> 01:54:43,430
Careful.

1559
01:54:49,900 --> 01:54:50,580
Begum Jaan.

1560
01:54:52,580 --> 01:54:54,410
Begum Jaan.

1561
01:55:19,980 --> 01:55:22,270
Rascals…

1562
01:55:22,510 --> 01:55:25,690
Bas****

1563
01:55:48,480 --> 01:55:49,490
Rascals…

1564
01:55:49,790 --> 01:55:50,840
Where do you think you’re going?

1565
01:55:50,920 --> 01:55:53,120
Rascals…

1566
01:55:55,040 --> 01:55:57,540
Where do you think you’re going?

1567
01:55:57,620 --> 01:55:58,840
Rascals…

1568
01:56:08,580 --> 01:56:10,990
Salim uncle!

1569
01:56:17,720 --> 01:56:19,490
Salim uncle!

1570
01:56:35,710 --> 01:56:37,450
Begum Jaan…

1571
01:56:51,840 --> 01:56:54,820
See sir, the place’s been evicted.

1572
01:56:55,330 --> 01:56:56,640
You can go now.

1573
01:56:57,090 --> 01:57:00,450
Because you won’t be able
to tolerate what happens next.

1574
01:57:00,740 --> 01:57:07,480
You see, my boys are going
to reinstate this brothel for a while.

1575
01:57:07,940 --> 01:57:11,320
There must be some advantage
of evicting a brothel.

1576
01:58:12,960 --> 01:58:14,070
What happened?

1577
01:58:16,820 --> 01:58:18,280
Hey…

1578
01:58:18,620 --> 01:58:20,820
Hey, prostitute…what are you doing?

1579
01:58:20,900 --> 01:58:22,860
You will all die.
– What’s happening, Kabir?

1580
01:58:34,440 --> 01:58:37,950
Your clients won’t save you.

1581
01:58:38,500 --> 01:58:39,770
Come back.

1582
01:59:36,900 --> 01:59:38,060
Aunty…

1583
01:59:40,000 --> 01:59:43,460
Tell me the story of Padmavati.

1584
01:59:46,940 --> 01:59:51,680
It was a moonless night when
the world plunged into darkness.

1585
01:59:52,480 --> 01:59:55,280
The sun and moon
disappeared from sight.

1586
01:59:56,300 --> 02:00:02,470
When 12,000 Rajput queens
gathered in the temple of Chittaur.

1587
02:00:03,410 --> 02:00:08,160
Queen Padmavati entered
the entered the temple…

1588
02:00:09,320 --> 02:00:11,760
…and evoked the God of fire.

1589
02:00:12,970 --> 02:00:14,810
O Fire God…

1590
02:00:15,140 --> 02:00:19,750
Come, and perish our body, our soul…

1591
02:00:19,830 --> 02:00:21,710
…and this darkness.

1592
02:00:25,040 --> 02:00:29,340
Queen Padmavati,
who was standing in front of the fire…

1593
02:00:29,760 --> 02:00:31,500
…had only two options.

1594
02:00:32,100 --> 02:00:35,250
First, surrendering to the enemy.

1595
02:00:35,530 --> 02:00:39,820
Bowing before them and
leading a life of slavery.

1596
02:00:40,200 --> 02:00:44,050
Or…sacrificing her life.

1597
02:00:44,350 --> 02:00:48,780
A glorious death, like the
way she had been living so far.

1598
02:00:49,080 --> 02:00:51,510
With her head held high,
on her own terms.

1599
02:00:51,750 --> 02:00:53,710
Like a queen.

1600
02:00:54,140 --> 02:00:55,020
And…

1601
02:00:55,230 --> 02:00:58,710
And queen Padmavati chose the option…

1602
02:00:58,790 --> 02:01:01,670
…that suits a queen.

1603
02:01:02,220 --> 02:01:05,940
Standing on the verge of death…

1604
02:01:06,480 --> 02:01:11,310
…queen Padmavati jumped in that
fire and let her self-esteem prevail.

1605
02:01:11,750 --> 02:01:13,070
She made it immortal.

1606
02:01:13,960 --> 02:01:14,880
She made it immortal.

1607
02:01:14,960 --> 02:01:28,150
“When the darkness...will
slowly recede.”

1608
02:01:32,620 --> 02:01:38,430
“When the clouds of sorrow fade away…”

1609
02:01:38,510 --> 02:01:45,480
"…and we'll be graced
by a sea of joy."

1610
02:01:47,420 --> 02:01:52,980
“When the sky will sway…”

1611
02:01:53,290 --> 02:01:59,430
“…and the earth will sing songs.”

1612
02:01:59,510 --> 02:02:05,010
“That dawn will come from us.”

1613
02:02:05,090 --> 02:02:10,670
“That dawn will come from us.”

1614
02:02:11,030 --> 02:02:16,780
“That dawn will come from us.”

1615
02:02:16,970 --> 02:02:22,400
“That dawn will come from us.”

1616
02:02:25,560 --> 02:02:29,130
“The dawn for which…”

1617
02:02:29,210 --> 02:02:38,510
“…we’ve been yearning for centuries.”

1618
02:02:43,290 --> 02:02:49,170
“The glorious dawn for which…”

1619
02:02:49,330 --> 02:02:55,740
“…we endure all the sorrows.”

1620
02:03:01,200 --> 02:03:06,910
“These craving, yearning souls…”

1621
02:03:07,110 --> 02:03:12,930
“…will some day be blessed.”

1622
02:03:13,010 --> 02:03:18,700
“That dawn will come from us.”

1623
02:03:18,950 --> 02:03:25,120
“That dawn will come from us.”

1624
02:03:55,810 --> 02:04:03,370
“I admit that the
price of our desires…”

1625
02:04:03,450 --> 02:04:09,250
“…are not too high.”

1626
02:04:13,290 --> 02:04:19,160
“Even soil has some value…”

1627
02:04:19,400 --> 02:04:25,940
“…but humans aren’t worth anything.”

1628
02:04:28,350 --> 02:04:34,010
“When the honor of humans…”

1629
02:04:34,180 --> 02:04:40,220
“…won’t come with a price-tag.”

1630
02:04:40,380 --> 02:04:45,800
“That dawn will come from us.”

1631
02:04:46,120 --> 02:04:51,550
“That dawn will come from us.”

1632
02:04:51,780 --> 02:04:57,540
“That dawn will come from us.”

1633
02:04:57,730 --> 02:05:03,250
“That dawn will come from us.”

1634
02:05:03,610 --> 02:05:09,330
“That dawn will come from us.”

1635
02:05:09,560 --> 02:05:15,540
“That dawn will come from us.”
