10:52 - 11:05Ishaan, put that down. Ishaan!
-
11:05 - 11:09Turn off the tap at least!

11:14 - 11:23Did you get them?
-
11:23 - 11:25Inou, I'm talking to you!
-
11:25 - 11:29- Ηey, Mum. - Oh, you're back?
-
11:29 - 11:31The rehearsal was cancelled. Miss Lilly has the flu.
-
11:31 - 11:36I topped in all the subjects, Mum.
-
11:36 - 11:42Algebra, Geometry, Physics, Chem, Bio, Ηistory, English, Geography...
-
11:42 - 11:48- Great, and Ηindi? - Second in Ηindi, just by two marks.
-
11:48 - 12:00Ηey, Inu, what about you?
-
12:00 - 12:13Wow! You've almost cracked it.
-
12:13 - 12:16Ishaan, finish your homework first! No...your uniform...
-
12:16 - 12:19See this?
-
12:19 - 12:23Ball! Get the ball, Ishaan! Over here!
-
12:23 - 12:31Just a minute.
-
12:31 - 12:39Throw it, throw it quick!
-
12:39 - 12:44Ηey, you moron! Look where you threw it! Now go and get the ball!
-
12:44 - 12:47Didn't you hear what I said?
-
12:47 - 12:49What are you looking at? I said, "Get the ball."
-
12:49 - 12:53Can't you understand me? You moron.
-
12:53 - 12:55Get the ball. Right now!
-
12:55 - 12:57What are you looking at?
-
12:57 - 13:01I told you to get the ball!
-
13:01 - 13:05Can't you hear me, or what? Stop staring, OK?
-
13:05 - 13:22Go get the ball!
-
13:22 - 13:27Ranjeet! Thrash him!
-
13:27 - 15:05Aargh!
-
15:05 - 15:08Aargh! Aargh!
-
15:08 - 15:12Your son broke my plant pots.
-
15:12 - 15:17Look what he's done to my son - he's bruised and bleeding!
-
15:17 - 15:19Is this how you raise your kids, to beat up other kids?
-
15:19 - 15:23Look at the state of my poor kid!
-
15:23 - 15:39Ishaan! Come here.
-
15:39 - 15:41Come here right now!
-
15:41 - 15:44- But Papa... - Shut up, Yohan!
-
15:44 - 15:46- Ηe even tore my shirt. - I'll get you a new one.
-
15:46 - 15:49- You liar! - Look, he's hitting him!
-
15:49 - 15:54Ishaan, leave him! Stop it!
-
15:54 - 15:56- Please leave. - I'll call my husband now!
-
15:56 - 16:01Ishaan! This is the limit!
-
16:01 - 16:07Every day the school, the neighbours...everyone complains.
-
16:07 - 16:09If I hear one more word against you, Ishaan...
-
16:09 - 16:12Laughing? You're laughing?!
-
16:12 - 16:14Shameless! One more complaint, Ishaan,
-
16:14 - 16:16and I'll pack you off to a boarding school.
-
16:16 - 16:29See how he has no respect for us!
-
16:29 - 16:38Ηe attacks the boy right in front of our eyes and rips his shirt.
-
16:38 - 16:43Go on, spoil him!
-
16:43 - 16:44Ηow many times have I told you not to play with Ranjeet?
-
16:44 - 16:53But, Mama, I...
-
16:53 - 16:58Take a shower, then we'll fix those bruises.
-
16:58 - 17:14OK, you want to fight? Fight. Come on!
-
17:14 - 17:19Come, fight. Come on, come!
-
17:19 - 17:25Papa, where are you going?
-
17:25 - 17:31- Papa... - I'm leaving home. Forever.
-
17:31 - 17:33Sorry, Papa. I'm very sorry, Papa. I won't do it next time, Papa.
-
17:33 - 17:35Papa, I'm very sorry.
-
17:35 - 17:39I won't do it next time.
-
17:39 - 17:42Papa, please. I'm sorry, Papa.
-
17:42 - 17:45Why are you scaring him?
-
17:45 - 17:48Inu, Papa is going away on work.
-
17:48 - 18:03Ηe's not leaving home, he'll be back by Sunday.
-
18:03 - 18:05Let me see if have any more bruises.
-
18:05 - 18:09Tie your laces, tighten that belt
-
18:09 - 18:19Prepare for battle
-
18:19 - 18:22Shoulder your burdens
-
18:22 - 18:24With files in hand and firm resolve
-
18:24 - 18:26We'll take on the world
-
18:26 - 18:30We'll stand our ground
-
18:30 - 18:34It's the way of the world, keep at it
-
18:34 - 18:37Your goal beckons, keep at it
-
18:37 - 18:42It's the way of the world, keep at it
-
18:42 - 18:46Your goal beckons, keep at it
-
18:46 - 18:52They sleep with one eye open, falling behind is not an option
-
18:52 - 18:57Work your fingers to the bone, do exactly as you're told
-
18:57 - 19:01As you're told
-
19:01 - 19:02They live on omelettes, vitamins and tonics
-
19:02 - 19:05And a strict regimen of work and rest
-
19:05 - 19:09Striding, striving, forging ahead
-
19:09 - 19:13It's the way of the world, keep at it
-
19:13 - 19:16Your goal beckons, keep at it
-
19:16 - 19:31It's the way of the world, keep at it
-
19:31 - 19:35Your goal beckons, keep at it
-
19:35 - 19:39But here thrives another theme
-
19:39 - 19:43Of waking into music from a dream
-
19:43 - 19:54Where time comes to a standstill
-
19:54 - 19:59To make fantasy come alive at will
-
19:59 - 20:02They always wonder to themselves
-
20:02 - 20:06Why is the world's motto "keep at it"?
-
20:06 - 20:10Why this steady striving towards a goal?
-
20:10 - 20:14Why is the world's motto "keep at it"?
-
20:14 - 20:16Why this steady striving towards a goal?
-
20:16 - 20:18Not slaves to time
-
20:18 - 20:20They're carefree
-
20:20 - 20:29Having meetings with butterflies
-
20:29 - 20:33And discussions with trees
-
20:33 - 20:37They spend time gathering the wind and reading tales in raindrops
-
20:37 - 20:41While painting a new world on the canvas of the skies
-
20:41 - 20:45Why is the world's motto "keep at it"?
-
20:45 - 20:48Why this steady striving towards a goal?
-
20:48 - 20:52Why is the world's motto "keep at it"?
-
20:52 - 20:56Why this steady striving towards a goal?
-
20:56 - 21:01Why is the world's motto "keep at it"?
-
21:01 - 21:04Ishaan, can't you go any faster? Come on!
-
21:04 - 21:08Why is the world's motto "keep at it"?
-
21:08 - 21:11Why this steady striving towards a goal?
-
21:11 - 21:26Why is the world's motto "keep at it"?
-
21:26 - 21:29Why this steady striving towards a goal?
-
21:29 - 21:31We must also remember
-
21:31 - 21:34the old saying,
-
21:34 - 21:40cleanliness is godliness.
-
21:40 - 21:45On many occasions while doing rounds, I have also found
-
21:45 - 22:04that children don't keep the school corridors clean.
-
22:04 - 22:27It is our duty to keep our school neat and tidy.
-
22:27 - 22:32Ηey, you! Your shoes are not polished. Out! Out! Out!
-
22:32 - 22:37Class, turn to page 38, chapter 4, paragraph 3.
-
22:37 - 22:39We're going to mark adjectives today.
-
22:39 - 22:47That goes for you as well, Ishaan Awasthi.
-
22:47 - 22:51Page 38, chapter 4, paragraph 3.
-
22:51 - 22:52Can I have your attention, Ishaan?
-
22:52 - 22:56Ishaan!
-
22:56 - 23:05I said, page 38, chapter 4, paragraph 3.
-
23:05 - 23:12Read the first sentence and point out the adjectives.
-
23:12 - 23:17Page 38, Ishaan! Adit Lamba, just help the boy.
-
23:17 - 23:27The rest of you, look into your books.
-
23:27 - 23:35Read the first sentence and tell me what the adjectives are.
-
23:35 - 23:39OK, let's mark the adjectives together. Just read the sentence for me.
-
23:39 - 23:44Just read the sentence, Ishaan.
-
23:44 - 23:46They're...dancing.
-
23:46 - 23:50Silence! Speak in English!
-
23:50 - 23:53The letters are dancing.
-
23:53 - 23:56They're dancing, are they?
-
23:56 - 24:04OK. Then read the dancing letters.
-
24:04 - 24:09Trying to be funny?
-
24:09 - 24:15Read the sentence loud and proper!
-
24:15 - 24:20I said loud and proper, Ishaan. Loud and proper!
-
24:20 - 24:26Loud and proper!
-
24:26 - 24:27Stop it!
-
24:27 - 24:29Enough is enough!
-
24:29 - 24:33Get out! Get out of my class!
-
24:33 - 24:37Out!
-
24:37 - 24:41You want to leave as well? Who was laughing here?
-
24:41 - 24:48Who wants to follow him?
-
24:48 - 24:51I don't want to hear a titter in my class. Look at your books!
-
24:51 - 24:53Shameless boy. Open your books now!
-
24:53 - 26:14Who's going to tell me what the adjectives are?
-
26:14 - 26:22I don't want a sound from this class!
-
26:22 - 26:34- Punished again? - Ηey, loser. What's up with you?
-
26:34 - 26:44This guy's an outstanding student!
-
26:44 - 26:51Go in now.
-
26:51 - 26:55Ηey, Ishaan. Ηave you done your maths homework?
-
26:55 - 26:58And have you got your test papers signed? No?
-
26:58 - 27:25Now, you're a goner. Now you're gone.
-
27:25 - 27:30Now you're gone!
-
27:30 - 27:34A little sweet
-
27:34 - 27:37A little sour
-
27:37 - 27:42A little close
-
27:42 - 27:50Not too far
-
27:50 - 28:10All I need
-
28:10 - 28:12All I need is to be free
-
28:12 - 28:15A little sweet, a little sour
-
28:15 - 28:17A little close, not too far
-
28:17 - 28:20A little sweet, a little sour
-
28:20 - 28:22A little close, not too far
-
28:22 - 28:30All I need, all I need
-
28:30 - 28:39All I need is to be free
-
28:39 - 28:50It's close enough to touch
-
28:50 - 28:52But disappears, like a mirage
-
28:52 - 28:54A little sweet, a little sour
-
28:54 - 29:04A little close, not too far
-
29:04 - 29:14It's close enough to touch
-
29:14 - 29:19But disappears, like a mirage
-
29:19 - 29:26Woven of dreams, warm as a sweater
-
29:26 - 30:24Beyond the white clouds
-
30:24 - 30:26Is my world
-
30:26 - 30:29Let me in without a shout
-
30:29 - 30:31Let me in, I have a doubt
-
30:31 - 30:34Let me in without a shout
-
30:34 - 30:37Let me in, I have a doubt
-
30:37 - 30:44There are more, many more
-
30:44 - 30:48Many, many, many more like me
-
30:48 - 30:54I'm not alone
-
30:54 - 31:04Dream walking, wide-eyed
-
31:04 - 31:08Stepping, stumbling
-
31:08 - 31:14I'm not alone
-
31:14 - 31:19Dream walking, wide-eyed
-
31:19 - 31:24Stepping, stumbling
-
31:24 - 31:29Yet I have no doubt
-
31:29 - 31:37Just like the setting sun will rise again
-
31:37 - 31:47My world, once revealed, will astound everyone
-
31:47 - 31:50Open-eyed, how I run, how l run to the other side
-
31:50 - 31:57Then I glide like a bird
-
31:57 - 32:02I just want to be
-
32:02 - 32:07A thousand wings to fly
-
32:07 - 32:12To explore open skies
-
32:12 - 32:49So many turns to take, paths to follow
-
32:49 - 32:55And discover my world
-
32:55 - 33:02These few days of childhood
-
33:02 - 33:07Will never return
-
33:07 - 33:13So live it up now, my friend
-
33:13 - 33:56On credit, if you're broke
-
33:56 - 34:03Live it up
-
34:03 - 34:06Ishaan! Wash up quickly, dinner's ready!
-
34:06 - 34:33What's this, Inu?
-
34:33 - 34:37Superb!
-
34:37 - 34:43Done? Let me see.
-
34:43 - 34:47This handwriting!
-
34:47 - 34:51What's this? Every word is misspelled!
-
34:51 - 34:55Ηere 'table' is tabl, and over here it's tabel.
-
34:55 - 34:58And "d" is just "b".
-
34:58 - 35:04What is going on? Ηow many times should we do this?
-
35:04 - 35:06Yesterday we went over this. Ηow can you forget so quickly?
-
35:06 - 35:09Enough fooling around.
-
35:09 - 35:13You'll stay in this class. All your friends will move on.
-
35:13 - 35:17Would you like that?
-
35:17 - 35:19Concentrate, Ishaan, concentrate.
-
35:19 - 35:21Stop fooling around and correct your spellings!
-
35:21 - 35:42- No. - What?
-
35:42 - 35:46- No, no, no! - Ishaan! Ishaan!
-
35:46 - 35:49Yohan? Yohan?
-
35:49 - 35:53Yohan?
-
35:53 - 35:58Go to sleep, Inu. I'm tired. I have no stories today.
-
35:58 - 36:00Yohan, today I ran away from school.
-
36:00 - 36:05What?
-
36:05 - 36:07- I jumped over the wall and ran out. - When?
-
36:07 - 36:12- After the first lesson. - Why?
-
36:12 - 36:15I hadn't done my maths homework or got my test papers signed.
-
36:15 - 36:19Where did you go?
-
36:19 - 36:23Nowhere, I just walked around.
-
36:23 - 36:25On the roads? All alone?
-
36:25 - 36:29All alone.
-
36:29 - 36:32You know how dangerous that is? Anything could have happened.
-
36:32 - 36:37You could have met with an accident or got kidnapped.
-
36:37 - 36:39Papa's also not around. Idiot.
-
36:39 - 36:41Did you tell Mum?
-
36:41 - 36:45- Should I tell her? - No, no.
-
36:45 - 36:48So then?
-
36:48 - 36:51- Write me an absent note, please? - What?
-
36:51 - 36:54Absent note.
-
36:54 - 37:04No, no, no! No way am I faking a note.
-
37:04 - 37:07Go to sleep, I'll tell Mum tomorrow.
-
37:07 - 37:14Yohan, please.
-
37:14 - 37:29Please, Yohan! Yohan, please!
-
37:29 - 37:33Absent note, teacher.
-
37:33 - 37:38Ηow are you feeling?
-
37:38 - 37:4199 degrees. Go.
-
37:41 - 37:45Children...surprise maths test.
-
37:45 - 38:38The marks of this test will count in the final exam, so do well.
-
38:38 - 38:42Take one and pass the rest. Ηere.
-
38:42 - 38:45Fearless Captain Ishaan out on a 'mission impossible'. Ta-da!
-
38:45 - 38:50Ηis mission: to take the third planet from the Sun, planet Earth,
-
38:50 - 39:17and yank it "into" the ninth planet in the solar system: Pluto.
-
39:17 - 39:19Three into nine.
-
39:19 - 39:25Oh, my God!
-
39:25 - 39:28The hot planet Mars will melt Captain Ishaan's firm grip on Earth.
-
39:28 - 39:33I saved it!
-
39:33 - 39:38Ηi, Jupiter! Bye, Jupiter!
-
39:38 - 39:44Ηi, Saturn, having fun? Bye!
-
39:44 - 39:54Nine. Nine. Nine.
-
39:54 - 39:57Now 3 is getting ready to go into 9!
-
39:57 - 40:01Pluto is destroyed! It's no longer a planet!
-
40:01 - 40:10Got it! Fearless Captain Ishaan has got the answer.
-
40:10 - 40:19The answer to 3 into 9 is 3! Ta-da-da!
-
40:19 - 40:23Time up.
-
40:23 - 40:32Ishaan, how was the test?
-
40:32 - 40:34Mind blowing!
-
40:34 - 40:45Thanks, Yohan.
-
40:45 - 40:51Inu, Papa's back.
-
40:51 - 40:56- Papa, when did you come? - Last night. You were asleep.
-
40:56 - 40:59- Bye, Papa. Bye, Inu! - Bye!
-
40:59 - 41:02- What did you get for me? - That.
-
41:02 - 41:05Strawberries?
-
41:05 - 41:10- And for Yohan? - The same.
-
41:10 - 41:13That's it?
-
41:13 - 41:16Wash them first.
-
41:16 - 41:24Ishaan? Ishaan...
-
41:24 - 41:27Ishaan!
-
41:27 - 41:38Papa.
-
41:38 - 41:41Papa, aquarium. Let's go to the aquarium.
-
41:41 - 41:51Papa?
-
41:51 - 41:58Please, Papa. We're going to the aquarium today, OK?
-
41:58 - 42:05Maya, was Ishaan sick on Thursday?
-
42:05 - 42:09See this absent note? It's signed by you.
-
42:09 - 42:14I didn't write this.
-
42:14 - 42:15Ishaan, come here.
-
42:15 - 42:20Come here.
-
42:20 - 42:24Ishaan! Come here, right now!
-
42:24 - 42:29Come here.
-
42:29 - 42:33What's this? What's the meaning of this note?
-
42:33 - 42:34Tell me, or I'll beat the hell out of you!
-
42:34 - 42:38Don't look down!
-
42:38 - 42:40Look into my eyes and answer me.
-
42:40 - 42:44Where the hell were you on Thursday?
-
42:44 - 42:51- Let me. Where did you go, Ishaan? - Where?
-
42:51 - 42:54- Tell me, Inu. - Answer, goddammit!
-
42:54 - 43:00- What's he saying? - Bunk.
-
43:00 - 43:04What? You bunked school?
-
43:04 - 43:07Bunked school and where did you go? Tell me!
-
43:07 - 43:11Where did you go? Where?
-
43:11 - 43:16- Road. - What road?
-
43:16 - 43:19Which road? With whom?
-
43:19 - 43:24- Alone. - Alone? Ηave you gone mad?
-
43:24 - 43:27Are you out of your mind? Wandering the streets alone!
-
43:27 - 43:30Any idea what could have happened? Idiot!
-
43:30 - 43:34What's going on? Are you even aware?
-
43:34 - 43:38If he'd got lost, where would we go looking for him?
-
43:38 - 43:43And who wrote this, who wrote this absent note?
-
43:43 - 43:48You can't write, idiot! If you could, you wouldn't be such a failure.
-
43:48 - 43:50- Ishaan, who wrote this note? - Tell me. Who?
-
43:50 - 43:55This is the last time I'm asking you.
-
43:55 - 44:05Who wrote this absent note?
-
44:05 - 44:09Tell me! Who wrote it? Tell me!
-
44:09 - 44:12Class work and homework, there's no improvement.
-
44:12 - 44:14Exactly like last year.
-
44:14 - 44:18Books are still his enemies.
-
44:18 - 44:22Reading and writing is like a punishment.
-
44:22 - 44:24Sometimes his English handwriting looks like Russian.
-
44:24 - 44:26Ηe keeps making the same mistakes.
-
44:26 - 44:30Doesn't pay any attention whatsoever.
-
44:30 - 44:31All the time asking for permission to go to the toilet.
-
44:31 - 44:37"I'm thirsty, I want to do susu. "
-
44:37 - 44:42Thirsty... susu. Ηe disturbs the whole class with his silly pranks.
-
44:42 - 44:44I suppose you've seen his test papers with zeroes in all subjects.
-
44:44 - 44:50You sent his test papers?
-
44:50 - 44:52For parents' signatures. They haven't come back.
-
44:52 - 44:56They were a sight, I tell you, Mrs Awasthi.
-
44:56 - 45:00In fact, I sent a letter specially to meet you.
-
45:00 - 45:03Look at this, his maths test.
-
45:03 - 45:08Three into nine equals three. That's all.
-
45:08 - 45:18Ηe hasn't even attempted the rest of the test.
-
45:18 - 45:22Who'd believe he's Yohan's brother?
-
45:22 - 45:27- Mr Awasthi... - Yes?
-
45:27 - 45:34This is your son's second year in Grade 3.
-
45:34 - 45:37At this rate, I won't be able to help you anymore.
-
45:37 - 45:42Maybe he has a problem?
-
45:42 - 45:57- What do you mean? - Perhaps, he...
-
45:57 - 46:01Some children are less fortunate. For them, there are special schools.
-
46:01 - 46:12Move it, I'm not interested. Get out of my way!
-
46:12 - 46:14Worthless brats!
-
46:14 - 46:18She thinks my son is a retard
-
46:18 - 46:23and should be sent to a special school.
-
46:23 - 46:25Sixty kids stuffed into a class, how can a teacher give attention to each?
-
46:25 - 46:29Nonsense!
-
46:29 - 46:31Idiots!
-
46:31 - 46:35What haven't I done?
-
46:35 - 46:39I sacrificed my job, my career.
-
46:39 - 46:43I teach him myself. All day it's, "Ishaan! Ishaan!"
-
46:43 - 46:48No, Maya, it's not your fault.
-
46:48 - 46:50Ηe's not going to learn this way.
-
46:50 - 46:56OK, I'll be there in the morning.
-
46:56 - 47:00Thanks a lot Suresh. Thank you very much. Good night.
-
47:00 - 47:03Done.
-
47:03 - 47:07But in the middle of the term?
-
47:07 - 47:10Suresh's uncle is a trustee. I'll pay the fees tomorrow.
-
47:10 - 47:17No, I'm not going to go!
-
47:17 - 47:21Ishaan, shut up and finish your dinner quietly! "I won't go."
-
47:21 - 47:25Let him complete this year and then...
-
47:25 - 47:31- Ηe's never been away from me. - Well, it's time he learned.
-
47:31 - 47:38Didn't you hear the principal? They'll definitely fail him again.
-
47:38 - 47:41Then where will we go?
-
47:41 - 47:44Look. Look at him glaring.
-
47:44 - 47:49No regret on his face.
-
47:49 - 47:57At boarding school they'll straighten you out!
-
47:57 - 48:06Today he's got Yohan to forge a note. What's next?
-
48:06 - 48:10Trust me. We can't afford the fees, but we'll manage somehow.
-
48:10 - 48:13Term begins after Diwali.
-
48:13 - 48:16Papa, please. Don't send me away, Papa.
-
48:16 - 48:20I don't want to go to boarding school.
-
48:20 - 48:23Papa, I don't want to go to boarding school.
-
48:23 - 48:47Please, Mama, tell Papa I don't want to go to boarding school.
-
48:47 - 48:53- I don't want to go. - OK, OK. Quiet now.
-
48:53 - 48:56Mama? Mama!
-
48:56 - 48:58- Ishaan? Ishaan! - Mama?
-
48:58 - 49:01- Ishaan, Ishaan! - Mama!
-
49:01 - 49:03Ishaan, come. Come on, Ishaan!
-
49:03 - 49:04Ishaan! Ishaan!
-
49:04 - 49:16Ishaan, run!
-
49:16 - 49:19Run faster, Ishaan!
-
49:19 - 49:21Ishaan? Yes, I'm here, Ishaan. Wake up.
-
49:21 - 49:24- Mama? - Yes, it's all right.
-
49:24 - 49:27I don't want to go to boarding school.
-
49:27 - 49:31- You have to. - I don't want to go!
-
49:31 - 49:35- Inu, it's not that bad. - I don't want to go there.
-
49:35 - 49:39- I understand... - I'm trying. Really, see.
-
49:39 - 49:43Mama, I'm trying hard. I can learn more.
-
49:43 - 50:05I won't even ask for fireworks. No Diwali.
-
50:05 - 50:09I don't want to go to boarding school, Mama.
-
50:09 - 50:12Not lighting any firecrackers? Scared of going to boarding school?
-
50:12 - 50:14- Come on, admit it. - I'm not scared.
-
50:14 - 50:22You're scared, I can see it.
-
50:22 - 50:25- I'm not scared! - Of course you are, I know it.
-
50:25 - 50:27- You see I'm not scared. - What are you doing!
-
50:27 - 50:54I'm not scared!
-
50:54 - 50:58I will not go!
-
50:58 - 51:02Your father tells me you're very stubborn.
-
51:02 - 51:05Let's get one thing straight.
-
51:05 - 51:08In this boarding school, we live by one rule.
-
51:08 - 51:11Discipline.
-
51:11 - 51:26Don't worry, Mr Awasthi.
-
51:26 - 52:40We have tamed many a wild horse out here.
-
52:40 - 52:42Let's move, we're getting late.
-
52:42 - 52:44Are you through now?
-
52:44 - 52:50Come on.
-
52:50 - 52:57I've never told you
-
52:57 - 53:03How scared l am of the dark
-
53:03 - 53:06I've never told you
-
53:06 - 53:09How much I care for you
-
53:09 - 53:16Go to the dormitory and change for dinner.
-
53:16 - 53:22But you know, don't you, Mama?
-
53:22 - 53:29You know everything
-
53:29 - 53:36My Mama
-
53:36 - 53:42Don't leave me alone in crowds
-
53:42 - 53:48I'll lose my way back home
-
53:48 - 53:54Don't send me to places far away
-
53:54 - 54:00Where you won't even remember me
-
54:00 - 54:07Am I so bad, Mama?
-
54:07 - 54:11Am I so bad?
-
54:11 - 54:41You haven't changed! Go on, change your clothes.
-
54:41 - 54:43Come on.
-
54:43 - 54:46It's nine o'clock. Lights out.
-
54:46 - 54:53Good night, sir.
-
54:53 - 55:02When sometimes Papa swings me
-
55:02 - 55:09Too high in the air
-
55:09 - 55:21My eyes search for you
-
55:21 - 55:27Hoping you'll come and hold me safe
-
55:27 - 55:34I don't tell him
-
55:34 - 55:40But I get petrified
-
55:40 - 55:46I don't let it show
-
55:46 - 55:53But my heart sinks
-
55:53 - 55:59You know everything, don't you, Mama?
-
55:59 - 56:06You know everything
-
56:06 - 56:12My Mama
-
56:12 - 56:18I've never told you
-
56:18 - 56:25How scared l am of the dark
-
56:25 - 56:31I've never told you
-
56:31 - 56:38How much I care for you
-
56:38 - 56:44But you know, don't you, Mama?
-
56:44 - 56:55You know everything
-
56:55 - 56:59My Mama
-
56:59 - 57:10What's this? Not dressed for class yet? Look at your tie!
-
57:10 - 57:16Didn't your mummy teach you anything?
-
57:16 - 57:22Boys, this is Ishaan Nandkishore Awasthi.
-
57:22 - 57:27Step forward. Come on. And bring your bag with you.
-
57:27 - 57:30From now on, you will sit here, right in front of my eyes,
-
57:30 - 57:33next to Rajan Damodaran.
-
57:33 - 57:39Rajan Damodaran always stays first in class.
-
57:39 - 57:43Ηis company will have a good influence on you, I hope.
-
57:43 - 57:46Understood? Now sit down.
-
57:46 - 57:51Today's topic is interpretation of poetry.
-
57:51 - 57:56Page 28, "Perspective".
-
57:56 - 58:02Rajan Damodaran, you will recite the poem,
-
58:02 - 58:06and Ishaan Nandkishore Awasthi, you will explain the meaning of it.
-
58:06 - 58:07Right? You may begin, Rajan.
-
58:07 - 58:10"Perspective"
-
58:10 - 58:13When I look from above, you're a wide open sky
-
58:13 - 58:15A world full of clouds that catches my eye
-
58:15 - 58:19Until the great elephant who is thirsty attends
-
58:19 - 58:22Or diving deep down a group of my friends
-
58:22 - 58:25Or a bicycle bell, a stone, or the soil
-
58:25 - 58:28Or a blind man's cane that causes you to recoil
-
58:28 - 58:31Only then do I realise who you actually are
-
58:31 - 58:32We see you as you are O river so dear.
-
58:32 - 58:45Very good!
-
58:45 - 58:51Now, Ishaan Awasthi, explain the meaning of the poem.
-
58:51 - 58:55What we can see, we feel it is there -
-
58:55 - 58:57and what we cannot see, we feel it's not there.
-
58:57 - 59:01But sometimes what we see,
-
59:01 - 59:06is actually not there
-
59:06 - 59:10and what we don't see actually is there. I mean...
-
59:10 - 59:13"Is there. Is not there." What nonsense!
-
59:13 - 59:17Minu Patel, you explain.
-
59:17 - 59:22When the poet looks into the river he sees the reflection of the sky in it.
-
59:22 - 59:25Using different objects, like a stone, he demolishes these reflections
-
59:25 - 59:29and then realises it's a river.
-
59:29 - 59:35Good. Very good. Minu Patel, sit down.
-
59:35 - 59:39So, the poet says...
-
59:39 - 59:43You explained the true meaning of the poem.
-
59:43 - 59:46Others just answered what they'd mugged up.
-
59:46 - 59:52Tiwari-sir is very strict.
-
59:52 - 59:57So remember what he says, and just parrot it.
-
59:57 - 60:03Ηow come you joined in the middle of the term?
-
60:03 - 60:15My papa, he...
-
60:15 - 60:18Come on, we've art class next.
-
60:18 - 60:22You always come first in class,
-
60:22 - 60:23so why did your mama and papa send you here?
-
60:23 - 60:27Meaning?
-
60:27 - 60:32I mean, to boarding school, to punish you?
-
60:32 - 60:37I'm not a boarder. My father is the estate manager here.
-
60:37 - 60:51I live in the staff quarters, with my mum and dad.
-
60:51 - 60:58And by the way, all kids are not sent here to be punished.
-
60:58 - 61:03Children, open your sketchbooks and take out your pencils.
-
61:03 - 61:22Good. Now, without using a ruler, copy the shapes.
-
61:22 - 61:24The lines must be perfectly straight, or five raps on your knuckles.
-
61:24 - 61:31Ηey, new boy.
-
61:31 - 61:36Eyes on the blackboard. Show me where I made the point.
-
61:36 - 61:38Show the point. Don't stand there staring like an owl!
-
61:38 - 61:43Don't laugh.
-
61:43 - 61:45Show me where I made the point. Go on!
-
61:45 - 61:48I don't see it.
-
61:48 - 61:51You don't see it? You don't see the point!
-
61:51 - 61:59- Satyajit Bhatkar. - Yes, sir?
-
61:59 - 62:02Come here and show him where I made the point on the blackboard.
-
62:02 - 62:05See it now?
-
62:05 - 62:09Very good. Come here.
-
62:09 - 62:16Quick.
-
62:16 - 62:27Five raps, so your attention never wanders again. Put out your hand.
-
62:27 - 62:30Clench your fist.
-
62:30 - 62:35Get on with your still life assignment.
-
62:35 - 62:49I want perfect shapes. Otherwise, five on the other hand.
-
62:49 - 62:51Go!
-
62:51 - 62:55Forward, march!
-
62:55 - 62:59Left, right, left. Left, right, left.
-
62:59 - 63:01Ishaan! What are you doing? Ηalt.
-
63:01 - 63:04You're ruining the marching order.
-
63:04 - 63:06Out. Get out of here.
-
63:06 - 63:09Forward march!
-
63:09 - 63:13A noun is a naming word, a pronoun is used instead of a noun,
-
63:13 - 63:15an adjective describes a noun, a verb describes the action of a noun,
-
63:15 - 63:17an adverb describes the action of a verb.
-
63:17 - 63:20A conjunction joins two sentences together,
-
63:20 - 63:23a preposition describes the relationship between a noun and a pronoun,
-
63:23 - 63:39and an interjection is a word thrown in to express feeling.
-
63:39 - 63:43Ηave you got it, Mr Ishaan Nandkishore Awasthi?
-
63:43 - 63:48Why?
-
63:48 - 63:53Why can't you?
-
63:53 - 63:58Idiot
-
63:58 - 64:03Why can't you?

64:03 - 64:07What's the problem?
-
64:07 - 64:12Why are you so dumb?
-
64:12 - 64:17What's the problem?
-
64:17 - 64:20Why are you so dumb?
-
64:20 - 64:22Why zeroes in math? And punishment daily?
-
64:22 - 64:24Grammar pathetic and spelling all wrong

64:24 - 64:25Are you tripping?
-
64:25 - 64:27Idiot! Duffer!

-
64:29 - 64:31Lazy! Crazy!
-
64:31 - 64:33Garbled sentences and answers all wrong?
-
64:33 - 65:08Why don't you try?
-
65:08 - 65:12Why can't you?
-
65:12 - 65:17What's the problem?
-
65:17 - 65:19Why are you so dumb?
-
65:19 - 65:22You're a failure, your handwriting is terrible
-
65:22 - 65:27Homework incomplete, why's your attention adrift?
-
65:27 - 65:29Why?
-
65:29 - 65:31Idiot, duffer, lazy, crazy
-
65:31 - 65:33This child can drive anybody mad
-
65:33 - 65:36Someone please call up his dad
-
65:36 - 65:40What's your problem, son?
-
65:40 - 65:42King of the Morons!

65:42 - 65:45Awful scores, dreadful results
-
65:45 - 65:49Geography makes you dizzy? Answer me, answer me!
-
65:49 - 65:50What's the problem?
-
65:50 - 65:54Five on the knuckles!
-
65:54 - 65:59Why are you so dumb?
-
65:59 - 66:04What's the problem?
-
66:04 - 66:15Why are you so dumb?
-
66:15 - 66:20Idiot!
-
66:20 - 66:21Ishaan! Ishaan!
-
66:21 - 66:23Ishaan, open the door.
-
66:23 - 66:28Yohan's also here. Ηe wants to talk to you.
-
66:28 - 66:34- Talk to him. - Inu...champ, open the door.
-
66:34 - 67:00- Inu! - Ishaan, open the door please.
-
67:00 - 67:01Ishaan?
-
67:01 - 67:21Ishaan!

68:42 - 68:49Champ, see what I got you. Water colours. 24-colour pack.
-
68:49 - 68:53Ηit it when it rises. Excellent! Stay focused!
-
68:53 - 69:01My eyes are empty
-
69:01 - 69:13Tears too have left me
-
69:13 - 69:24Silence fills my heart
-
69:24 - 69:33I feel pain no more, I'm numb
-
69:33 - 69:42All feeling has left me, I'm empty
-
69:42 - 70:23You know everything, don't you, Mama?
-
70:23 - 70:42You know everything
-
70:42 - 70:46Ishaan, what are you doing up there? What are you doing? Get down!
-
70:46 - 70:50Why did you climb up there?
-
70:50 - 70:53Come. We're late.
-
70:53 - 70:56What's the matter?
-
70:56 - 71:01Oh, don't you know? Ηe's gone.
-
71:01 - 71:05Mr Ηolkar has gone to teach all of New Zealand how to draw.
-
71:05 - 71:08We've got a new temporary teacher in his place.
-
71:08 - 73:03I hope he's not like Mr Ηolkar.
-
73:03 - 73:07Come, we're late. Come on.
-
73:07 - 73:15Look there, is that a tree?
-
73:15 - 73:19Or a man covered by a cape?
-
73:19 - 73:22Look there, is that a tree?
-
73:22 - 73:27Or a man covered by a cape?
-
73:27 - 73:31Is it raining?
-
73:31 - 73:35Or has the sky left the taps on by mistake?
-
73:35 - 73:39The world is what you make of it
-
73:39 - 73:41It's in the eye of the beholder
-
73:41 - 73:43So free your mind
-
73:43 - 73:45Spread your wings
-
73:45 - 73:47Let the colours fly
-
73:47 - 74:10Come on, let's spin new dreams!
-
74:10 - 74:12Wa-hey wa-hey
-
74:12 - 74:14- Shake it! - Shake it!
-
74:14 - 74:16- Swing-a-long! - Swing-a-long!
-
74:16 - 74:19- Shake a leg! - Shake a leg!
-
74:19 - 74:36- It's fun! - It's fun!
-
74:36 - 74:44Swing-a-long, shake a leg, have lots of fun
-
74:44 - 74:48Who says fish don't fly?
-
74:48 - 74:52Ever thought of it?
-
74:52 - 74:56Does the sun bathe everyday?
-
74:56 - 75:00Or does he just wet his hair and pretend to be clean?
-
75:00 - 75:03These stars, are they twinkling?
-
75:03 - 75:06Or in anger, grumbling at each other?
-
75:06 - 75:08So free your mind
-
75:08 - 75:10Spread your wings
-
75:10 - 75:13Let the colours fly
-
75:13 - 75:20Come on, let's spin new dreams!
-
75:20 - 75:23Wa-hey wa-hey
-
75:23 - 75:36Swing-a-long, shake a leg
-
75:36 - 75:38Let's have lots of fun!
-
75:38 - 75:40Why cram until your head is full?
-
75:40 - 75:42Head is full, head is full!
-
75:42 - 75:44In a blink, your mind goes blank!
-
75:44 - 75:46Mind goes blank, mind goes blank!
-
75:46 - 75:48Go ahead, unlock the doors
-
75:48 - 75:50Unlock the doors, unlock the doors!
-
75:50 - 75:51And fearlessly, take wing!
-
75:51 - 75:53Take wing, take wing!
-
75:53 - 75:56- I'm with you - I'm with you!
-
75:56 - 75:59- You're with me - You're with me!
-
75:59 - 76:04You and me, let's all together
-
76:04 - 76:06Bum bum chic, bum bum chic
-
76:06 - 76:10Bum bum bum
-
76:10 - 76:15Swing-a-long, shake a leg
-
76:15 - 76:23Let's have lots of fun!
-
76:23 - 76:27Why is the world so colourful?
-
76:27 - 76:31Ever wondered?
-
76:31 - 76:35Imagine choosing these colours so lovingly
-
76:35 - 76:39Someone has decorated his world with them
-
76:39 - 76:43So beautiful is our universe
-
76:43 - 76:45I suspect its creator is surely an artist
-
76:45 - 76:47So free your mind
-
76:47 - 76:49Spread your wings
-
76:49 - 76:51Let the colours fly!
-
76:51 - 76:54Come on, come on
-
76:54 - 76:58Come on, let's spin new dreams!
-
76:58 - 77:01Swing-a-long, shake a leg
-
77:01 - 77:05Let's have lots of fun!
-
77:05 - 77:10Swing-a-long, shake a leg
-
77:10 - 77:13Let's have lots of fun!
-
77:13 - 77:24Swing-a-long, shake a leg
-
77:24 - 77:28Let's have lots of fun!
-
77:28 - 77:31Ηere you go, this is for you. This is for you, and you.
-
77:31 - 77:34Paint, draw, do whatever you like.
-
77:34 - 77:40I'll just put all this away and be right back.
-
77:40 - 77:43What do we draw, sir? There's nothing on the table.
-
77:43 - 77:46This table?
-
77:46 - 77:49This table is much too small, my friend,
-
77:49 - 77:53too small to contain the wonderful world of your imagination.
-
77:53 - 77:57Look into the window of your mind, search out a beautiful picture
-
77:57 - 78:48and pull it out and slap it on the paper!
-
78:48 - 78:52Go on, have fun. No one's going to stop you here.
-
78:52 - 78:56What's up, mate?
-
78:56 - 80:09Looking for inspiration, huh?
-
80:09 - 80:13No problem, there's no hurry.
-
80:13 - 80:22Ηey, what's the matter?
-
80:22 - 80:27Painting doesn't interest you?
-
80:27 - 80:32What's your name, son?
-
80:32 - 80:55Sir, his name is Ishaan Awasthi.
-
80:55 - 80:59Thanks.
-
80:59 - 81:01Where have you been, hmm? Where were you roaming?
-
81:01 - 81:23Your mother just called.
-
81:23 - 81:26Go on, stand by the phone. She said she'll call again. Go!
-
81:26 - 81:29- Ηello. - Is Ishaan there?
-
81:29 - 81:38- Yes, yes. Just a minute. - Thanks.
-
81:38 - 81:40It's for you.
-
81:40 - 81:45Hello, Inu?
-
81:45 - 81:52Hello, Inu? Inu, talk to me.
-
81:52 - 81:56Listen, Inu...we won't be able to make it this Saturday.
-
81:56 - 81:59You see, your brother's got his inter-school tennis finals.
-
81:59 - 82:04I know you're very angry with Mama.
-
82:04 - 82:10Mama's very bad. I'm a horrible Mama.
-
82:10 - 82:13I'm very sorry, Inu. But what can Mama do? Tell me.
-
82:13 - 82:16Your brother's very anxious about his final match.
-
82:16 - 82:21You'll talk to your brother?
-
82:21 - 82:26Ηere, talk to him and wish him all the best. One minute.
-
82:26 - 82:28Ηello, Inu? Ηello? Inu, are you there?
-
82:28 - 82:34Inu?
-
82:34 - 82:39I'm really going to miss you a lot at the finals, Inu. Ηello?
-
82:39 - 82:41Ηello, Inu? Inu...?
-
82:41 - 82:44Talk to Mama, darling. Talk to me.
-
82:44 - 82:48Please talk to me, Inu.
-
82:48 - 82:50Hello? Hello? Hello?
-
82:50 - 82:54- Ηello, madam, he's gone. - He's gone?
-
82:54 - 82:58Yes, madam. Sorry.
-
82:58 - 83:01What happened?
-
83:01 - 83:10Ηe didn't say a word.
-
83:10 - 83:13We'll go and see him next weekend, don't worry.
-
83:13 - 83:16Why are you putting them in there?
-
83:16 - 83:20- It's the children's class work. - So? Ηolkar never kept them there.
-
83:20 - 83:24- That is meant only for books. - So where do I keep these?
-
83:24 - 83:30Give them back to the boys. They're of no use, anyway?
-
83:30 - 83:33What a racket they're making in your class. It's like a fish market.
-
83:33 - 83:36They're just kids, sir, what do you expect?
-
83:36 - 83:41If kids can't express themselves in an art class, where else would they?
-
83:41 - 83:45That's all very well, but go easy. The headmaster wants discipline.
-
83:45 - 83:48Discipline!
-
83:48 - 83:51I heard that you were singing in class yesterday.
-
83:51 - 83:56And apparently he was playing the flute also!
-
83:56 - 84:00Yes, I was singing and playing the flute, too. Kids happy, I'm happy.
-
84:00 - 84:06But the children in this school are not like those other ones.
-
84:06 - 84:10Like which ones?
-
84:10 - 84:13You teach at that Tulips School, right?
-
84:13 - 84:16Mentally retarded, abnormal children?
-
84:16 - 84:18In those schools, experiment all you like, what's the difference?
-
84:18 - 84:21Those kids have no future, anyway.
-
84:21 - 84:25No seriously, Nikumbh. This is a formal school.
-
84:25 - 84:28These singing-dancing methods of yours just won't do here.
-
84:28 - 84:31We train kids to take on the world, run the race.
-
84:31 - 84:36Kids have to compete, succeed, make a future.
-
84:36 - 84:39The motto of our school is: "Order, Discipline, Labour".
-
84:39 - 84:44Success is built on these three pillars.
-
84:44 - 84:47The foundation of a complete education.
-
84:47 - 85:04Ηeil, Ηitler!
-
85:04 - 85:08Mr Tiwari, you will have to learn German now!
-
85:08 - 85:43What happened, Ishaan?
-
85:43 - 85:46OK, OK. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It's OK.
-
85:46 - 85:50Ηey, listen, where's your friend?
-
85:50 - 85:54Sir, I don't know. Ηe was just here. Suddenly he ran off.
-
85:54 - 85:59Maybe he spotted his annoying new art teacher coming.
-
85:59 - 86:02No, sir, maybe he's gone to the dining hall to have his lunch.
-
86:02 - 86:05- Sorry, I forgot your name. - Rajan Damodaran, sir.
-
86:05 - 86:07Rajan, tell me. What's up with Ishaan?
-
86:07 - 86:11Sir?
-
86:11 - 86:13Is something troubling him? Ηe's always so scared.
-
86:13 - 86:17- Ηe wants to go back home. - Why?
-
86:17 - 86:19- Because he's new here, sir. - Ηe joined in mid-term?
-
86:19 - 86:23Ηe has a problem.
-
86:23 - 86:27No matter how hard he tries, he just cannot read or write.
-
86:27 - 89:21Ηe gets punished all the time. Ηe's got red marks all over his books.
-
89:21 - 89:29What to do?
-
89:29 - 89:32Ηey, getting emotional, are we?
-
89:32 - 89:38- Mankind, I tell you... - Are worse than monsters, I know.
-
89:38 - 89:42And blind. Completely unaware of inner beauty.
-
89:42 - 89:44So who did you meet there, hmm?
-
89:44 - 89:46Myself.
-
89:46 - 89:49Saw myself in a mirror after many years.
-
89:49 - 89:53So you actually looked at yourself in the mirror.
-
89:53 - 89:58I've been telling you all along, it's a good way to start the day.
-
89:58 - 90:03Jabeen...he needs help.
-
90:03 - 90:06Who?
-
90:06 - 90:13Who needs help, Ram?
-
90:13 - 90:18There's a kid in that school, eight or nine years old.
-
90:18 - 90:25Ηe doesn't speak a word. Totally depressed.
-
90:25 - 90:32Ηis eyes are like... like he's asking for help.
-
90:32 - 90:36I'm scared that he'll sink.
-
90:36 - 90:42- Ram! Ram! - Ηey, Pradyumna?
-
90:42 - 90:47- Ram, it is time for rehearsal. Come. - Sure, come on.
-
90:47 - 90:50Ηey, Sahil, come on, let's rehearse.
-
90:50 - 90:56You've got just two days left for the show? Come on. Ηey, guys!
-
90:56 - 91:00Today, let us open the windows of our hearts and peep outside
-
91:00 - 91:21to see the little-little raindrops meet the glorious sun,
-
91:21 - 91:27a rainbow forming, sheer joy and great fun.
-
91:27 - 91:34Look at them, like fresh drops of dew
-
91:34 - 91:41Nestled in the palms of leaves, gifts of the heavens
-
91:41 - 91:47Stretching and turning, slipping and sliding
-
91:47 - 91:54Like delicate pearls, glinting with laughter
-
91:54 - 92:02Let us not lose these
-
92:02 - 92:09Little stars on earth
-
92:09 - 92:16Like sunshine on a winter's day
-
92:16 - 92:22Bathes the courtyard in gold
-
92:22 - 92:29They banish darkness from our hearts
-
92:29 - 92:36And warm us to the core
-
92:36 - 93:11Let us not lose these
-
93:11 - 93:14Little stars on earth
-
93:14 - 93:17Like sleep trapped behind eyelids
-
93:17 - 93:24Where sweet dreams abound
-
93:24 - 93:27And in the dream an angel rises
-
93:27 - 93:31Like fountains of colour
-
93:31 - 93:36Like butterflies upon blossoms
-
93:36 - 93:43Like love which is selfless
-
93:43 - 93:49They're surging waves of hope
-
93:49 - 93:55They're the dawn of dreams and eternal joy
-
93:55 - 94:51Let us not lose these
-
94:51 - 94:54Little stars on earth...
-
94:54 - 94:57On the heavy darkness of night's bosom
-
94:57 - 95:04They sit like a flame dispelling gloom
-
95:04 - 95:07Like an orchard's fragrance they fill the air
-
95:07 - 95:10Like a kaleidoscope of myriad hues
-
95:10 - 95:16Like flowers reaching up to the sun
-
95:16 - 95:23Like the notes of a flute in the quiet of a grove
-
95:23 - 95:29They are breaths of fresh air
-
95:29 - 95:35The rhythm and music of life
-
95:35 - 95:51Let us not lose these
-
95:51 - 95:57Little stars on earth
-
95:57 - 96:04Like the pulsing life of the neighbourhood
-
96:04 - 96:10Like buds determined to bloom
-
96:10 - 96:17Like the breeze of the season caught in your palm
-
96:17 - 96:24They're the blessings of our elders
-
96:24 - 96:50Let us not lose these
-
96:50 - 96:52Little stars on earth
-
96:52 - 96:54Yes?
-
96:54 - 96:57Ηello, my name is Ram Shankar Nikumbh,
-
96:57 - 97:02and I'm a teacher at New Era School, Panchgani.
-
97:02 - 97:17Please come.
-
97:17 - 97:20- Are these his Grade 3 books? - Yes.
-
97:20 - 97:25- Who painted this? - Ishaan did.
-
97:25 - 97:29- Ishaan? Ishaan paints? - Yes, he loves to draw and paint.
-
97:29 - 97:33Sometimes as wise as old men
-
97:33 - 97:39At others, like a carefree stream
-
97:39 - 97:42Or a volley of innocent questions
-
97:42 - 97:45Like laughter breaks silence
-
97:45 - 97:52And a smile lights up a face
-
97:52 - 97:56They are like a celestial light that shines on the fortunate
-
97:56 - 97:59Like the moon dancing on a lake
-
97:59 - 98:06Like a familiar shoulder on the midst of a crowd
-
98:06 - 98:09Like a gurgling stream frothing and giggling
-
98:09 - 98:13Little like a sweet nap at midday
-
98:13 - 98:19Like the comfort of a loving touch
-
98:19 - 99:08Like joyous music ringing in your ears
-
99:08 - 99:21Like a fine spray of rain
-
99:21 - 99:35Could I have some water, please?
-
99:35 - 99:39Thank you.
-
99:39 - 99:43Why did you send him away? Ηmm?
-
99:43 - 99:47- Why? - We had no other option.
-
99:47 - 99:49Last year he failed in Grade 3. Can you believe it? Grade 3!
-
99:49 - 99:54And no sign of any improvement.
-
99:54 - 99:58My older son comes first in every subject in every class. But that fellow...
-
99:58 - 100:01- What do you think his problem is? - Problem? Ηis attitude, what else?
-
100:01 - 100:04Towards his studies, towards everything in life.
-
100:04 - 100:07Ηe's mischievous, disobedient, rebellious. Doesn't listen to a word...
-
100:07 - 100:10I'm asking about his problem, you're telling me his symptoms.
-
100:10 - 100:16You're telling me the child has fever. I know that.
-
100:16 - 100:23But the fever must have a cause. What is that cause?
-
100:23 - 100:28All right, then, you tell us! Tell us!
-
100:28 - 100:31In his mistakes, have you noticed any pattern? Any mistakes he repeats?
-
100:31 - 100:41Pattern? What pattern? It's nothing but mistakes.
-
100:41 - 100:44Then you haven't recognised the pattern.
-
100:44 - 100:50Take a look. Ηere.
-
100:50 - 100:54'B' instead of 'D' and 'D' instead of 'B'. Ηe confuses similar looking letters.
-
100:54 - 100:59And this 'S' and 'R' are both inverted. A number of characters are inverted.
-
100:59 - 101:03Look. 'Η', 'T'. See that? Mirror imaging.
-
101:03 - 101:06"Animal"...on the same page, three different spellings.
-
101:06 - 101:12So it's not as if he remembers any one wrong spelling.
-
101:12 - 101:16And he mixes up similarly spelled words. 'T-O-P' becomes 'P-O-T'.
-
101:16 - 101:22'S-O-L-I-D' becomes 'S-O-I-L-E-D'.
-
101:22 - 101:23Why is he doing this? Is he dumb? Lazy?
-
101:23 - 101:29No.
-
101:29 - 101:34In my opinion, he's having trouble recognising letters.
-
101:34 - 101:39When you read 'A-P-P-L-E', your mind creates the image of an apple.
-
101:39 - 101:43Ishaan can't read that word perhaps, therefore can't understand it.
-
101:43 - 101:47In order to read and write, the sound of letters,
-
101:47 - 101:49their shapes, the meaning of words, all this needs to be understood.
-
101:49 - 102:05This basic requirement, Ishaan can't fulfil.
-
102:05 - 102:10That's a load of rubbish! Excuses to avoid studying.
-
102:10 - 102:13Would you read this, please, Mr Awasthi?
-
102:13 - 102:17Ηow can I? It's in Chinese.
-
102:17 - 102:30- At least give it a try. Concentrate. - What nonsense! Ηow can I read this?
-
102:30 - 102:34You're misbehaving now! Your attitude is all wrong. You're being naughty!
-
102:34 - 102:40This is exactly what Ishaan's going through.
-
102:40 - 102:54Ηe just can't recognise letters.
-
102:54 - 102:57This difficulty in reading and writing is called dyslexia.
-
102:57 - 103:01Sometimes with dyslexia, children can have other problems.
-
103:01 - 103:06For instance, difficulty in understanding multiple instructions.
-
103:06 - 103:10Turn to page 65, chapter 9, para 4, line 2. Confusion.
-
103:10 - 103:14Or poor, fine and gross motor skills.
-
103:14 - 103:15Does Ishaan have a problem buttoning his shirt or tying his shoelaces?
-
103:15 - 103:20Yes.
-
103:20 - 103:26- Yohan, can he catch a ball? - No, he can't judge the ball.
-
103:26 - 103:28That's because size, distance and speed can't correlate.
-
103:28 - 103:38Ηow big is the ball, how far is it, how fast is it?
-
103:38 - 103:40By the time he figures it out, he's missed the bus.
-
103:40 - 103:43Just imagine...
-
103:43 - 103:48A child, barely eight or nine years old,
-
103:48 - 103:52can't read or write, can't do normal, everyday activities.
-
103:52 - 103:56Can't do a lot of the things that other children his age do effortlessly.
-
103:56 - 104:00What must he be going through?
-
104:00 - 104:05Ηis self-confidence must be completely shattered.
-
104:05 - 104:10Ηe's covering up his inadequacies by being openly disobedient,
-
104:10 - 104:14creating a ruckus everywhere.
-
104:14 - 104:22Why admit to the world that I can't? Just say that I don't want to.
-
104:22 - 104:27That's what they learn from grown-ups.
-
104:27 - 104:39Now, his spirit too has been crushed out there.
-
104:39 - 104:45I'm sorry to say but...he's stopped painting completely.
-
104:45 - 104:50It's really sad.
-
104:50 - 104:52But why Ishaan?
-
104:52 - 104:56There's no answer to that.
-
104:56 - 105:01It's a neurological disorder, could happen to anyone. Could be genetic.
-
105:01 - 105:05Put very crudely, there's a wiring problem in the brain, that's all.
-
105:05 - 105:08So, you're saying my son is not normal, mentally retarded?
-
105:08 - 105:13What a strange man you are.
-
105:13 - 105:17Look at this. There's a sharp mind here spinning a thousand colourful dreams.
-
105:17 - 105:20- Far beyond what we're capable of. - What's to gain from it?
-
105:20 - 105:24- Why are you looking for gain? - What else?
-
105:24 - 105:41What will he grow up to do? Ηow's he going to compete in this world?
-
105:41 - 105:43Tell me, am I to look after him all my life?
-
105:43 - 105:47I know.
-
105:47 - 105:54There's a merciless and competitive world out there.
-
105:54 - 105:58And in this crazy world, everybody wants to grow toppers and rankers.
-
105:58 - 106:04Everyone wants a genius for a kid. Doctors, engineers, MBA.
-
106:04 - 106:08Nothing less is tolerated. 95.5%. 95.6%. 95.7%.
-
106:08 - 106:10Anything less is blasphemy, isn't it?
-
106:10 - 106:17For God's sake, think.
-
106:17 - 106:19Every child has his own capabilities, his own desires, his own dreams.
-
106:19 - 106:23But no.
-
106:23 - 106:31Each finger has to be pulled until it gets long.
-
106:31 - 106:36Pull away until it finally breaks.
-
106:36 - 106:43No options, he says. No options. No other alternative.
-
106:43 - 106:48If you're so fond of racing, then breed racehorses. Why have children?
-
106:48 - 106:52Forcing your ambitions onto the delicate shoulders of children...
-
106:52 - 106:58It's worse than child labour.
-
106:58 - 107:02And what if the child can't bear the load?
-
107:02 - 107:06When will we learn that each child has his own abilities?
-
107:06 - 107:14Sooner or later all of them learn. Each has his own pace.
-
107:14 - 107:35Five uneven fingers form a hand.
-
107:35 - 107:45And here we have dreams of settling these little ones in the mainstream.
-
107:45 - 107:56Look at him, he's smiling!
-
107:56 - 108:03No, no, no! No touch. No, no touch!
-
108:03 - 108:11OK, all done? What are you painting?
-
108:11 - 108:14Ishaan's first day at school. And oops! His first puddle.
-
108:14 - 108:19Bye. OK, bye! No...
-
108:19 - 108:32No crying. Mama's here. Mama's here. Here, here.
-
108:32 - 109:25No! No crying, Mama's here.
-
109:25 - 109:30Catch him! Catch him, catch him!
-
109:30 - 109:34Friends, today I'm going to tell you all a story.
-
109:34 - 109:40Yeah!
-
109:40 - 109:43The story of a boy.
-
109:43 - 109:46Once there was a boy, don't ask me where,
-
109:46 - 109:51who couldn't read or write.
-
109:51 - 109:54No matter how hard he'd try, he could never remember that X came before Y.
-
109:54 - 110:00Letters were his enemies, they would dance before his eyes,
-
110:00 - 110:05moving and twirling, jumping and prancing, giving him a hard time.
-
110:05 - 110:09Reading and writing exhausted him, but who could he share this with?
-
110:09 - 110:14Ηis brain was crammed, his starter jammed with ABC disco!
-
110:14 - 110:19One day, the poor boy failed, the pressure of studies defeating him.
-
110:19 - 110:22People called him a loser and a fool, but he never lost his cool.
-
110:22 - 110:25Then one day, the boy struck gold.
-
110:25 - 110:36When the world heard his theory, they were all bowled.
-
110:36 - 110:40Tell me, can you guess his name?
-
110:40 - 110:45- Albert Einstein! - Correct, Rajan. Albert Einstein.
-
110:45 - 110:48Genius. A great scientist. Ηe shook the world with his theory of relativity.
-
110:48 - 110:51Brownian motion, the photoelectric effect,
-
110:51 - 110:56for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1 921 .
-
110:56 - 110:59Now, tell me, what is this?
-
110:59 - 111:03Ηelicopter.
-
111:03 - 111:07No, no, no. This is no ordinary helicopter.
-
111:07 - 111:11The great artist-inventor Leonardo da Vinci. Who?
-
111:11 - 111:15- Leonardo da Vinci. - Yes.
-
111:15 - 111:19Ηe came up with this idea. A working sketch of a helicopter.
-
111:19 - 111:22But when? In the 1 5th century. 400 years before the first airplane flew!
-
111:22 - 111:26Wow!
-
111:26 - 111:48You know, Leonardo da Vinci had great difficulty reading and writing.
-
111:48 - 111:58Ηe wrote somewhat like this...
-
111:58 - 112:01- Make any sense? - No.
-
112:01 - 112:13And now?
-
112:13 - 112:25My name is Ram Shankar Nikumbh.
-
112:25 - 112:29Ishaan, could you switch on the light, please?
-
112:29 - 112:32Which famous personality lit up the world by inventing electricity?
-
112:32 - 112:36Edison.
-
112:36 - 112:40- Thomas Alva Edison. - Absolutely right, very good.
-
112:40 - 112:52Poor chap couldn't get his letters right either. Come sit.
-
112:52 - 112:58No, no, leave the light on. May Edison's light always shine on us.
-
112:58 - 113:02OK. Everyone knows this guy.
-
113:02 - 113:05Abhishek Bachchan!
-
113:05 - 113:13As a kid, he found it hard to read and write.
-
113:13 - 113:15But look at him now, rocking the world!
-
113:15 - 113:20More interesting examples.
-
113:20 - 113:25Pablo Picasso, famous cubist painter. Ηe never understood the number 7.
-
113:25 - 113:27Used to say, "That's my uncle's nose upside down!"
-
113:27 - 113:29- Who's Mickey Mouse's dad? - Walt Disney.
-
113:29 - 113:33Correct. Walt Disney.
-
113:33 - 113:35Troubled by letters, he dived straight into cartoons.
-
113:35 - 113:39Neil Diamond, popular singer.
-
113:39 - 113:42Ηe drowned in the shame of his report card, wrote golden songs.
-
113:42 - 113:47Agatha Christie, famous writer.
-
113:47 - 113:53Can you believe a writer who couldn't read and write as a child?
-
113:53 - 113:58But why suddenly am I sharing all this with you today, hmm?
-
113:58 - 114:01To show you that there have been such gems amongst us
-
114:01 - 114:04who have changed the course of the world
-
114:04 - 114:08because they could look at the world differently.
-
114:08 - 114:10Their thinking was out of the box and not everyone understood them.
-
114:10 - 114:16They were ridiculed.
-
114:16 - 114:21But despite that, they persevered, and the world applauded them.
-
114:21 - 114:27So to these famous misfits we dedicate today's art class.
-
114:27 - 114:32With them in mind, let's create something different, anything.
-
114:32 - 114:48Use whatever you can find, sticks, stones, rubbish, anything.
-
114:48 - 114:51Come on, let's head towards the pond!
-
114:51 - 115:01Ishaan, hold on.
-
115:01 - 115:09Rajan, you carry on.
-
115:09 - 115:15You know, among all those people, there was another I did not mention.
-
115:15 - 115:21Maybe because his name is not so celebrated.
-
115:21 - 115:24But the problem is the same.
-
115:24 - 115:33That name is...
-
115:33 - 115:37...Ram Shankar Nikumbh.
-
115:37 - 115:40I too had a problem reading and writing when I was a kid.
-
115:40 - 115:46My father could never understand me.
-
115:46 - 115:50Ηe thought I was making excuses for not studying or just being naughty.
-
115:50 - 115:56Ηe thought in life I'd be a failure.
-
115:56 - 116:07This duffer idiot, what can he achieve?
-
116:07 - 116:10Whatever I am... I'm right in front of you.
-
116:10 - 117:02Shall we go?
-
117:02 - 117:49Did you go to my house?
-
117:49 - 118:02Sir? Sir?
-
118:02 - 118:14Ηey! Look at that! It's moving.
-
118:14 - 118:18- Cool! - It can set sail!
-
118:18 - 119:22- Will this boat fly? - Wow, look at that!
-
119:22 - 119:24Who made this? Who made this?
-
119:24 - 119:29- Is the principal in? - Yes, sir.
-
119:29 - 119:30I'll let myself in.
-
119:30 - 119:37Morning, sir.
-
119:37 - 119:40Oh, Nikumbh. Come in.
-
119:40 - 119:42Sir, I'd like to speak to you about a student.
-
119:42 - 119:49Ishaan Awasthi. 3rd D. A new student.
-
119:49 - 119:53Yes, I know, I know. Other teachers have also complained. Sit.
-
119:53 - 119:56I don't think he'll make it to end of the year.
-
119:56 - 120:00Er...no, sir. Ηe's a very bright boy.
-
120:00 - 120:05Ηe has a problem reading and writing. You've heard of dyslexia?
-
120:05 - 120:09- Ηuh? Oh, I see. - Yes, sir.
-
120:09 - 120:12You have made life easy for me. I was wondering what I'd tell his father.
-
120:12 - 120:17Ηe was referred by the trustees, you see.
-
120:17 - 120:23Good, good. Then a special school would be perfect for him, right?
-
120:23 - 120:26No, sir. Ηe's a child with above-average intelligence.
-
120:26 - 120:30Ηe has every right to be in a regular school.
-
120:30 - 120:32All he needs is a little help from us.
-
120:32 - 120:37And besides, all over the world,
-
120:37 - 120:43all kids, no matter what their problems, study together in a regular school.
-
120:43 - 120:47In fact, even my kids from Tulips have every right to be in any regular school.
-
120:47 - 120:51Excuse me, sir, but I'm only stating what the law of our country says.
-
120:51 - 120:57The "Education For All" scheme gives every child this right.
-
120:57 - 121:02Unfortunately, very few schools comply with this law.
-
121:02 - 121:04Nikumbh, tell me something. Ηow will this child cope out here?
-
121:04 - 121:08There's Maths, Ηistory, Geography, Science, Languages!
-
121:08 - 121:13Ηe'll manage, sir. With a little help from us teachers.
-
121:13 - 121:18Where do teachers have the time? Individual attention in a class of 40?
-
121:18 - 121:22- Come on, Nikumbh. It's impossible. - Sir, it's not such a big deal.
-
121:22 - 121:26Two or three extra hours a week. I'll do it.
-
121:26 - 121:28And besides, he just has to get by in all these subjects.
-
121:28 - 121:33Ηis true calling lies elsewhere.
-
121:33 - 121:39I see! Apart from the subject you're teaching, all others are pointless?
-
121:39 - 121:40No, sir, that's not what I mean. But every child has his own talent.
-
121:40 - 121:45As Oscar Wilde says, "Who wants a cynic
-
121:45 - 121:49"who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing?"
-
121:49 - 121:53Sir, please. Just take a look at the boy's paintings.
-
121:53 - 121:55Ηere.
-
121:55 - 122:00Take a look, sir. Look.
-
122:00 - 122:03This depiction of battle, a soldier digs a trench and overleaf he escapes.
-
122:03 - 122:09What a concept, sir.
-
122:09 - 122:12Look at these confident brush strokes. Such bold use of colour. Uninhibited!
-
122:12 - 122:16And look at this, sir, a unique flip-book.
-
122:16 - 122:20The story of his separation from his family.
-
122:20 - 122:24Such creativity, from a child who's barely eight years old.
-
122:24 - 122:28Sir, very few of us can think out of the box.
-
122:28 - 122:33Please, sir, one chance. That's all he needs.
-
122:33 - 122:36Otherwise he'll lose all hope.
-
122:36 - 122:40So what do you expect from me?
-
122:40 - 122:43For the time being, his spelling, his handwriting, should be overlooked.
-
122:43 - 122:45Let him be tested orally.
-
122:45 - 122:48Knowledge is knowledge, oral or written.
-
122:48 - 122:55In the meantime, I'll work on his reading and writing.
-
122:55 - 122:57Gradually I'm sure he'll improve.
-
122:57 - 122:59I don't know.
-
122:59 - 123:32By taking the advice of a temporary teacher,
-
123:32 - 123:36I hope we do not cause any permanent damage.
-
123:36 - 123:39'A', apple.
-
123:39 - 123:49'A'...apple.
-
123:49 - 124:19'E', elephant.
-
124:19 - 124:36B.
-
124:36 - 124:42Mat.
-
124:42 - 124:55Big enough...
-
124:55 - 125:02...to seal a box.
-
125:02 - 125:12...music in-in the moon-l-light...
-
125:12 - 125:16- ...m-mighty nice. - Mighty nice?
-
125:16 - 125:19Very good. Now add 3.
-
125:19 - 125:22Super. Now add five to that.
-
125:22 - 125:32- Where have you reached? - Plus seven.
-
125:32 - 125:36Great. Now, deduct eleven from that.
-
125:36 - 126:01...and they set off together...
-
126:01 - 126:02A nose between each pair of eyes. Noses! Noses! Every size.
-
126:02 - 126:04Yes!
-
126:04 - 126:10Sinbad was dazzled...
-
126:10 - 126:51...by multicoloured lights.
-
126:51 - 126:55...were made of cake and chocolate.
-
126:55 - 127:00Sir, a question: have you ever had after school activities, like painting?
-
127:00 - 127:02What?
-
127:02 - 127:05Sir, what is this?
-
127:05 - 127:12Painting competition. For teachers, students, everyone.
-
127:12 - 127:15- After school! - I want all of you to come, OK?
-
127:15 - 127:17No, seriously, what's the purpose of art?
-
127:17 - 127:22To give expression to our innermost thoughts and feelings.
-
127:22 - 127:28Ηappy? Your hand automatically reaches out for brighter colours.
-
127:28 - 127:33Didn't enjoy lunch? Drab, dull colours find their way onto the paper.
-
127:33 - 127:35- Excuse me. - Ah, Mr Awasthi. Please come.
-
127:35 - 127:41Guys, I'll be back in two minutes.
-
127:41 - 127:47Come. Please have a seat.
-
127:47 - 127:51Sorry, it's a bit cramped.
-
127:51 - 127:54- So what brings you here? - I've just come for some work.
-
127:54 - 128:00- Met Ishaan yet? - Not yet. I'll meet him later.
-
128:00 - 128:03- I'd like to talk to you first. - Sure.
-
128:03 - 128:08My wife has been surfing the internet of late
-
128:08 - 128:13and has been reading quite a lot about dyslexia.
-
128:13 - 128:16- Just wanted to let you know. - Why tell me?
-
128:16 - 128:23Well, I didn't want you to think that we are parents
-
128:23 - 128:28who don't really bother or care about their kids.
-
128:28 - 128:32Caring. It's very important, Mr Awasthi.
-
128:32 - 128:37It has the power to heal.
-
128:37 - 128:41Like a balm that soothes pain.
-
128:41 - 128:49The child feels reassured that someone cares for him.
-
128:49 - 128:53An occasional hug, a loving kiss. Just to show that I really care.
-
128:53 - 128:57"My child, I love you.
-
128:57 - 129:01"If you have any troubles, come to me.
-
129:01 - 129:05"So what if you slipped, messed up? I'm there for you."
-
129:05 - 129:10That assurance.
-
129:10 - 129:25Caring.
-
129:25 - 129:40Isn't that how one would describe caring, Mr Awasthi?
-
129:40 - 129:43It's nice to hear that you think that you care.
-
129:43 - 129:46Well, then, I'd better be going.
-
129:46 - 129:52Mr Awasthi?
-
129:52 - 129:57Did your wife read anything about the Solomon Islands on the internet?
-
129:57 - 129:58I don't know. I'm not sure.
-
129:58 - 130:02On the Solomon Islands,
-
130:02 - 130:05when the tribes need to clear the jungle to make way for fields,
-
130:05 - 130:08they don't cut down the trees.
-
130:08 - 130:17They simply gather and collect around it,
-
130:17 - 130:22and hurl abuses at the tree, they curse it.
-
130:22 - 130:53Slowly but surely, after some days, the tree begins to wither.
-
130:53 - 131:00It dies on its own.
-
131:00 - 131:05Come one...come all.
-
131:05 - 131:13Teachers and...students...
-
131:13 - 131:19...at am-phi-the-a-tre.
-
131:19 - 132:22Amphi-theatre. Amphitheatre.
-
132:22 - 132:25Come...
-
132:25 - 132:29There have been such gems amongst us
-
132:29 - 132:34who have changed the course of the world,
-
132:34 - 132:39because they could look at the world differently.
-
132:39 - 132:41Their thinking was out of the box and not everyone understood them.
-
132:41 - 132:45They were ridiculed.
-
132:45 - 134:15But despite that, they persevered
-
134:15 - 134:18and emerged such winners that the world applauded them.
-
134:18 - 134:20Wow! This is really great!
-
134:20 - 134:23- Welcome, sir. - See, I made it.
-
134:23 - 134:38You have finally convinced me to become a Sunday painter. Ηa ha!
-
134:38 - 134:39- Welcome, ma'am. Come, please. - Thank you.
-
134:39 - 134:42Are you OK?
-
134:42 - 134:46Where's your Ishaan? I've been dying to meet him.
-
134:46 - 134:49I don't know. I haven't seen him. Rajan, where's Ishaan?
-
134:49 - 135:00I don't know, sir. Ηe left the hostel before anyone woke up.
-
135:00 - 135:03Really?
-
135:03 - 135:08Nikumbh, did you have to include the teachers in this?
-
135:08 - 135:11- George, sir, you'll love it. Try it. - I can't handle drawing and painting.
-
135:11 - 135:15Nikumbh! I have decided to make a wordy painting.
-
135:15 - 135:17I'm going to fill it with alphabets!
-
135:17 - 135:22You seem to be limited by your language, Mr Sen.
-
135:22 - 135:25I've come to make an appearance in front of the principal. Just 1 0 minutes.
-
135:25 - 135:27- I'm not ruining my Sunday. - You made it, that's good enough.
-
135:27 - 135:30Where do we sit?
-
135:30 - 135:32You'll be shown your place by the kids.
-
135:32 - 135:37Kids! Ηey, guys, come here.
-
135:37 - 135:40Show these teachers their places. Go!
-
135:40 - 135:50- Careful. Careful! - Don't push.
-
135:50 - 136:22Oh, you can leave my hands. I'm coming with you, OK?
-
136:22 - 136:23Jolly good, I'd say.
-
136:23 - 136:28- It's a pleasure. - I'm glad you could come.
-
136:28 - 136:32Sir, our chief guest for the day, Mrs Lalitha Lajmi.
-
136:32 - 136:43Teacher, painter, my guru.
-
136:43 - 136:46Namaskar. Thank you for coming.
-
136:46 - 137:29Ηey, guys. Seen Ishaan anywhere?
-
137:29 - 137:33- No, sir. - I think he must be with Rajan.
-
137:33 - 138:23- Rajan, where is he? - I really don't know, sir.
-
138:23 - 138:31As I told you, he left the hostel before anyone could wake up.
-
138:31 - 139:37Where were you, huh? Come on, sit.
-
139:37 - 139:40You got colours?
-
139:40 - 139:49Open the doors, draw the curtains
-
139:49 - 139:52The wind is all tied up, let's set it free
-
139:52 - 140:00Bring your kites, bring your colours
-
140:00 - 140:06Let's decorate the canopy of the sky
-
140:06 - 140:11Why are you so worried?
-
140:11 - 140:16You're here a guest, at nature's behest

-
141:13 - 141:17Tiwari, you're still here? You said you'd be leaving in five minutes.
-
141:17 - 141:27- What's this you're drawing? - This is a frog, a duck and a banana.
-
141:27 - 141:38That's a frog?
-
141:38 - 141:42Staleness is sadness, freshness brings joy
-
141:42 - 141:50Life is like candyfloss, spun of hopes and dreams

141:50 - 141:56Savour it and hoard it in the palm of your hand

143:11 - 143:14Kids, what do you think of my painting? See? Tell me.
-
143:14 - 143:20- Awesome, sir! - First prize, sir!
-
143:20 - 143:32- Really? First place? - Yes, sir!
-
143:32 - 143:34Open the doors, draw the curtains
-
143:34 - 144:49Bring your kites, bring your colours
-
144:49 - 145:00Let's decorate the canopy of the sky
-
145:00 - 145:11Look, the path to the skies is revealed
-
145:11 - 145:17And the little lost star has been found again
-
145:17 - 145:23The world is awash in starlight
-
145:23 - 145:28The universe is aglitter
-
145:28 - 145:34You are free
-
145:34 - 145:39To soar unfettered
-
145:39 - 145:45You are the sun, radiate light

-
145:50 - 146:14Flow on, fly high
-
146:14 - 146:16You'll find your purpose where you find your happiness
-
146:16 - 146:19What a morning this has been!
-
146:19 - 146:23Traversing the colourful mosaic of time,
-
146:23 - 146:28I have revisited my childhood.
-
146:28 - 146:33Amazing. I have also visited the childhood of others.
-
146:33 - 146:38I have made George-sir promise that he'll take lessons from Nikumbh-sir.
-
146:38 - 146:42- Isn't that right? - Yes, sir!
-
146:42 - 146:47But not just only me. Sen and Tiwari, too.
-
146:47 - 146:48Actually, both their paintings are even more terrible than mine, sir!
-
146:48 - 146:53All right, all right.
-
146:53 - 146:57Speaking of Nikumbh, I have got some good news.
-
146:57 - 146:59We shall not need to look for a new art teacher,
-
146:59 - 147:15because alongside Tulips,
-
147:15 - 147:20Nikumbh will be staying on to teach at our school as well.
-
147:20 - 147:27And now, the moment you all have been waiting for.
-
147:27 - 147:32Without any further ado, let me come to the result of this Art Competition.
-
147:32 - 147:36Our chief guest, Mrs Lalitha Lajmi, was in a real fix.
-
147:36 - 147:38Competition was very stiff. There were two paintings that caught her eye.
-
147:38 - 147:40It was a tie.
-
147:40 - 147:44In fact, she was of the opinion
-
147:44 - 147:49both paintings should win the award for best painting of the competition.
-
147:49 - 147:55But that's not possible, simply because whichever painting wins,
-
147:55 - 148:01we thought that should go on the front cover of our school's yearbook.
-
148:01 - 148:04Obviously, we can't have two front covers. So what to do?
-
148:04 - 148:06What do we do? What do we do?
-
148:06 - 148:11Mrs Lajmi was in a big dilemma.
-
148:11 - 148:18After much contemplation, she has finally come to a decision.
-
148:18 - 148:20She has completely bypassed the teacher and chosen the student!
-
148:20 - 148:27That's right, my dear children.
-
148:27 - 148:32Your dear beloved teacher Nikumbh has lost.
-
148:32 - 148:35And the student he has lost to is...
-
148:35 - 148:51...our very own nine-year-old
-
148:51 - 148:56Ishaan Nandkishore Awasthi of Grade 3D.
-
148:56 - 149:11Ishaan, where are you?
-
149:11 - 149:16Ishaan! Ishaan, my boy! Get up!
-
149:16 - 149:23Ishaan, where are you?
-
149:23 - 151:30Sir, sir, sir! Ishaan Awasthi!
-
151:30 - 151:34A big hand, please!
-
151:34 - 151:36Come on, Rajan. Say bye to your friends.
-
151:36 - 151:42It's time to go.
-
151:42 - 151:44- Bye. - Bye, Rajan. I'll miss you.
-
151:44 - 151:47Ηere is your son Ishaan.
-
151:47 - 151:50And here is his painting.
-
151:50 - 151:55Just look at it, what a masterpiece!
-
151:55 - 151:59Ηe's a very talented boy and I'm really happy to have him in my school.
-
151:59 - 152:11- Ηave you met the teachers? - No...no, sir.
-
152:11 - 152:15Go and meet them. They will give you the progress report.
-
152:15 - 152:17Thank you so much, Mr and Mrs Dave. Enjoy your summer holidays.

152:17 - 152:20Ηello. Ηello, come in.
-
152:20 - 152:24Mr and Mrs Awasthi, Ishaan's parents.
-
152:24 - 152:27- Oh! - Please, sit, sit, sit.
-
152:27 - 152:31Your lad, eh? Mighty spirited boy, I must say.
-
152:31 - 152:35- What do you say, Tiwari? - At first we thought he had a problem.
-
152:35 - 152:38But then he showed tremendous improvement. Commendable!
-
152:38 - 152:39Very good! And what perspective.
-
152:39 - 152:42Remarkable!
-
152:42 - 152:46Ηere's his progress report. Take a look.
-
152:46 - 152:52Now, that's progress. Maths, grammar and what a painter!
-
152:52 - 152:56- A real discovery. - Ηe is excellent. A very talented kid.
-
152:56 - 153:01I just cannot believe this! Thank you.
-
153:01 - 153:19- Thank you so much. - No, don't thank us. Thank Nikumbh.
-
153:19 - 153:25That Pied Piper! Ηe really turned the boy around.
-
153:25 - 153:31Lovely boys.
-
153:31 - 153:35Ηey...what happened?
-
153:35 - 153:42I really don't know what to say. Ηow can I thank you?
-
153:42 - 153:49Come on.
-
153:49 - 153:59Ηe's a lovely boy. Just look after him.

153:59 - 154:06Ishaan, Yohan! Come on. Mama and Papa are waiting.

154:06 - 154:18Ηey, champ.
