-
Now l'll tell you the
actual story.
-
Rupees 10 lakhs for your drinks,
gambling and women,...
-
... are loaned to you by
these men.
-
They are asking you to
repay it.
-
l agree that
l took loans from you.
-
But l've no money
now to repay it.
-
l've asked my brother for
my share of the wealth.
-
But mother is not
permitting it.
-
What do you mean?!!
Our Gods have divine power.
-
You rogue, crook, sinner
how can you say that?
-
[In English] Our Indian Gods
are most powerful!
-
If you touch them...
-
...you will die!!
-
[In Telugu] Don't do it!
-
It is sin!
-
They have been with your
family for generations.
-
48 years later
on a new moon day...
-
48 years later
-
- You can count on me any time
you are in need. - Okay.
-
- Keep this money.
- What's the need for it? - Bye.
-
This year....
-
O Goddess, is it fair to
curse us for generations...
-
... for one man's mistake?
-
You have been taking one life
from the family once in 48 years.
-
You killed my husband
when my son was a kid.
-
Yet, l didn't stop worship you.
-
l remained your devotee
and a pious woman.
-
Are you still angry with me,
mother?
-
- This holy fire has been
burning for years unknown.
-
lt doused itself when
the goddess was attacked.
-
lt starts burning only until
the death anniversary...
-
...of the person who
touched it is completed.
-
Since that time, this holy
fire is doused once in 48 years.
-
... and that meant death
for one of your family members.
-
Now, we are into the
current 48th year.
-
Whose life are you
taking this time, O Goddess?
-
Where has he gone out
on his birthday?
-
He is naughty but
they blame me for it.
-
l cannot blame his grandpa
for naming him Murari.
-
What do l do?
l'm terribly tense.
-
ls grandmother angry
with me?
-
- Seek blessing.
Close your eyes.
-
Today is my birthday.
-
Bless me with a long life,
grandma.
-
What is it?
-
Bless me already!
My knees are aching.
-
My dear grandmother,
lost in thoughts!
-
Are you okay?
-
What is it?
-
- It's nothing.
-
- Come, hug me.
-
Are you reminded of your husband?
- You...
-
- l'm going to continue
with your worship.
-
Sattipandu...
- Yes.
-
- Today is my birthday. Bless me.
-
Hey, Sattipandu...
Come on, laugh.
-
- Stop it!
-
Bless him.
-
- Bless you long life.
-
- Seek blessings from your mother.
-
Mother's blessings are a
must on a birthday.
-
Hey!
What are you doing?
-
- No doubt she is my mother,
-
But you are the mother l know.
-
- Calm yourself.
-
My dear Gopalakrishna
Maheshwari...
-
- Bless me.
- On my brother...
-
Bless you long life.
-
- O second brother
and sister-in-law, bless me.
-
Just a hug isn't enough.
Give me a present too.
-
- Give him!
Don't be stingy!
-
- You must only give this
when l really need it.
-
- Sure, l'll see to it!
-
O my last brother
and sister-in-law.
-
- Ah, what are you doing?
-
- What are you giving me?
-
- Take it.
-
- Thanks, brother.
-
- They are stealing it!
-
- What's the matter?
- They hit our Ganesh
-
And then they took our Ganesh
away in a lorry.
-
- Really!
-
When and where did
they take it?
-
- l don't know.
- We must stop it.
-
Stealing our baby elephant Ganesh!
How disgraceful!
-
- Murari will be disgraced.
- What!
-
l'm older, taller and
have more property than him.
-
More importantly l'm
more handsome than him.
-
Why does everyone admire him?
What do l lack?
-
- Do you know?
- No. - This one.
-
His name will be ruined if he
cannot protect his temple elephant.
-
With the 2 lakhs we earn
on selling it to circus...
-
... will suffice our needs
for an year.
-
- Where is he?
- Has he drowned by any chance?
-
We better escape.
-
You, here!
-
Which hand am l seeing!!
-
Don't hit me.
-
- Spare me. - l'm leaving
you for mother's sake.
-
What do you think of yourself?
You are being too arrogant.
-
What?
-
You have many elders in the
house. How can you do this?
-
- We kept quiet out of
compulsion. - Nonsense.
-
You have no one to
question you or stop you.
-
That's enough, all of you.
-
Kannaya, don't do something
to cause pain to us.
-
Stop it. Worst come to worst
l die. That's all.
-
- Don't say so.
- We don't live forever isn't it?
-
We cannot remain cowards out of
fear of death. - Stop it.
-
Don't say such inauspicious words.
-
Saving the temple elephant
isn't wrong.
-
But risking your life is.
-
You must realize how
dangerous it was. - l'm sorry.
-
You are not cut out
to be cunning.
-
Learn from him.
-
See, even grandma knows
you are being naughty.
-
Only marriage will control
you.
-
Marriage and Kannaya!
He is still a kid.
-
Oh yes, he is a kid
but a grownup kid.
-
He held my hand when l went to
give him water last night.
-
- She is dangerous!
- We better not delay his marriage.
-
Get him marriage soon else,
my marriage will be ruined.
-
- Must l marry your choice?
- Of course.
-
What's your idea
of your would be wife?
-
l don't want a girl who is
demanding type like Satyabhama.
-
Not docile like
Rukmini either.
-
l want a girl who has
both their qualities.
-
- In one word... - Why is he
Iooking at coconut tree?
-
l want my girl like
Goddess Lakshmi who emerged...
-
... from the ocean of milk
when it was churned.
-
That's why l refuse
to come home.
-
You kill me with rituals cold
water baths in the midnight.
-
Ritual of leaving lighted lamps in
the pond gets you a good husband.
-
Don't l get if l don't do it?
-
Don't argue. Go, do it.
-
Leave it and pray.
-
l said pray.
-
Horoscope shows that
he has long life.
-
Why not we compare horoscopes
of those dead ancestors of his?
-
Do it. They must be around
somewhere in the house.
-
l'll get them.
Have a look. - Sure.
-
Keep quiet.
-
- What's your name?
- Let me talk.
-
- It's you! Aunty!
- Don't shout, Vasu.
-
- Gopa aunty!
- Let me talk.
-
- Gopi how are you?
- l'm fine uncle. How are you?
-
l'm fine as ever.
-
Your uncle is fit as a fiddle.
How are your patients?
-
We are fine here.
Tell me about you.
-
Take care of your BP first.
-
We know.
He need not give advice.
-
- You don't know what to talk.
- Me! - Of course.
-
- How can you say so to my brother?
- My sister is giving him a lesson.
-
Talk one by one, please.
-
Don't bother about them.
Come here as soon as possible.
-
l'll come, uncle.
But...
-
- Why did you disconnect?- You
can see her in few days.
-
- l wanted to talk.
- What's there to talk?
-
He got drunk in day time!
Let's go away.
-
l didn't drink much.
-
He isn't a kid to admonish him.
-
Cannot punish him because
he is my own son.
-
My heart aches to see him
like this.
-
- Why did he disconnect so soon?
-Call him if you want to talk more.
-
- Why should l call?
- Why not?
-
Why should l? - Then why did you
come to participate in conversation.
-
- l just happened to hear
what he said. - l see!!
-
You want to talk to
my uncle isn't it?
-
Make a call. That will
reunite all of us again.
-
Why should father call him.
They are childhood friends.
-
- Why cannot he call? prestige?
- Don't interfere, Suribabu.
-
lt's not dad's mistake
but Chanti uncle's.
-
Let them come and
say sorry to father.
-
lt's Rambabu's wrong doing.
Why must Chanti uncle say sorry?
-
You are very affectionate to them.
You go them every year.
-
They never come to meet you here.
-
- Just keep quiet.
- Sister-in-law... - Keep quiet.
-
l agree that my family
doesn't know customs.
-
What about your family?
-
You or your brothers, not even once
took me to my parents personally.
-
Look at them
shout at me, Murari.
-
Be happy with what you get...
-
... despite what they did.
-
l'm telling you go
even if l don't like it.
-
So, just go and come. Don't ever
try to make peace between us.
-
Vasundhara is like Goddess
Lakshmi. You made her cry!
-
- What did l say, father?
- Just shut up and get out.
-
Go inside, dear.
-
Don't cry, sister.
Don't care what he said.
-
l was angry when l said it.
Don't take it seriously.
-
You said it intentionally.
-
Told me to shut up.
-
Listen to me. l know you
well isn't it?
-
Don't we knowwhat do
you mean to us?
-
Don't l knowwhat have you
sacrificed for marrying me?
-
You love Murari immensely.
Didn't want children of your own...
-
... because you were afraid
of losing him.
-
You are like Goddess
for my family.
-
You want to hide it from
your family.
-
Hence to convince then you go there
even year to perform many rituals.
-
When people call you barren...
-
How can you say l'm barren?
Murari is my son.
-
When he calls me mother...
-
When we were getting married,...
-
You were about to tie Tali.
-
Murari came to me. Looked
at me with big, cute eyes...
-
... touched me on
the shoulder,and called me...
-
... mother with outstretched hands
expecting me to pick him up.
-
He was so cute.
-
He became my son since
that moment.
-
All my unhappiness vanishes
when l hear him call me mother.
-
l forgot that he isn't
born out of my womb.
-
My heart aches whenever
you raise that topic.
-
l'm not barren.
Murari is my son.
-
- l'm not a barren woman.
- Please forgive me for saying it.
-
- Don't say so.
- What do l do then?
-
Bye grandma. Father-in-law,
cut down on spices.
-
Stop crying.
-
l got this sweet made
for Chanti. Give it to him.
-
- Kannaya...
- Don't go, mother.
-
- Oh l've stomach ache.
- You were fine till now!
-
- Take him away. - What's
happened in the last moment?
-
Does he have to fall sick
when l'm leaving?
-
Stop crying. Brother, you
go with her. l've work to do.
-
Ministers are coming.
-
- You go with her.
- l've work in the fields.
-
Srinu, you? - l've to be present
on last working day of the week.
-
- You can work later.
- l cannot, father.
-
So, are sending her alone?
-
Never mind. l'll go with her.-You!
- Why cannot l go with mother?
-
Shall we let her go alone
as an orphan? Let's go, mother.
-
- You are saying bye!
- Of course not.
-
Difficult to understand him!
-
What are you thinking
so seriously?
-
- l'm confused, Kannaya.
- Shut up.
-
Nothing. Oh you are
teasing me too!
-
No one accompanied me since
the time l'm married.
-
You are coming with me this time.
-
You did some trick
to persuade them isn't it?
-
But l'm afraid what my folks
at maternal home think.
-
One must change the situation
instead of fearing it.
-
So, don't fear of anything.
l'm there for you.
-
- You think l've grownup.
- You, come here.
-
You don't find anything here
to ward off the evil eye.
-
lt's a long time since l came here
but feels it just a few days go.
-
Kannaya, stop.
-
Stop it.
It will bite you.
-
Be careful.
-
You are scared of it.
It's scared of me.
-
Snakes won't bite anyone unless
it is to defend themselves.
-
lt got lost.
Let me help it get away.
-
- Which way are the fields
- That side.
-
Do you want it?
-
- Leave it.
- l'll.
-
Don't come this way.
Humans are not good.
-
- You are at it again.
- You don't oblige me these days.
-
Not bothered about those
concerned about you.
-
May God protect you.
-
Kannaya, spit on it.
Let me throw it away.
-
Uncle, where is your mind?
-
You are like my
Sattipandu.
-
Yes. The fields, the
river Godavari.
-
- The pond, Rattalu.
- Rattalu! Who is she?
-
- Sattipandu's labourer.
- He said she is your labourer.
-
- Let me explain. - Do you
recognize her? - Let me talk.
-
- Do you recognize her?
- Amul Aunty.
-
l came to eat your cooking.
- Rattalu...- l'll tell you later.
-
Hello, uncle.
Does he still play cards?
-
- l quit long ago.
- So, you taught him a lesson.
-
- Hey, you.
- He caught me!
-
Do you still keep
drooping or...
-
- Bullabhai...
- Where is he? - Coming over.
-
The snake is gone
get down.
-
Hold on to my hand
and get down slowly.
-
What a heels!
-
- Keep quiet.
- Let him recognize her.
-
Don't prompt him.
-
Blue half pants,
running nose,...
-
... 2 plaits, missing
teeth and stammering...
-
What's it?
-
Snake... snake...
-
She is hot tempered.
-
My room for that
snake charmer! No way.
-
- Please. - No. He cannot
sleep in my room, on my bed!!
-
- No way.
- He is handsome.
-
- He and handsome!
- Talk with respect.
-
- He is a boy. - So what's
special? - You are special.
-
We have guests, you know.
-
Never mind. We can
use upstairs room.
-
- Let's go.
- What do you say? - You...
-
- l won't vacate my room.
- Please understand.
-
Aunty comes only once an year.
-
We have to look after
her brother-in-law well.
-
Else she will feel insulted.
-
lt's always like this.
-
l'm not vacating my room
for him...
-
lt's for aunty.
-
- How could you catch such
a huge snake! - It was easy.
-
Can you catch tigers too?
-
He can catch squirrels,
rats, cockroaches too.
-
Come this way, all of you.
-
Mother...
-
Give me those horoscopes.
-
Mercy O Mother...
-
We were talking about it.
-
Which matter?
About the snake?
-
Oh, about you stealing
my elephant...
-
Please don't tell anyone
at home about it. l'll...
-
l'll be obliged to you.
-
l'll keep quiet as long as
l'm not inconvenienced.
-
Otherwise, l'll tell
each and everyone...
-
... one by one.
-
- Beware of me... okay.
- Okay.
-
- Tell him to smile.
- Smile.
-
ls that a smile!
-
You said it's none
of my business.
-
Be careful.
Oh, you have lot of muscle!
-
- Flowers... - We can bring
them from our own garden.
-
He is blackmailing
me using Rattalu's name.
-
- You forgot bananas.
- We have plenty in our garden.
-
- We need brass tumblers.
- Eight isn't it?
-
- Do we know any dealer in it?
- l've already ordered for them.
-
Where are you going away
in the middle?
-
Snake... Snake...
-
You are worse than us.
-
Jump together.
-
Good. Move aside.
-
Let him jump again.
l'll teach him a lesson.
-
Why didn't he jump again!!
-
Snake... Snake...
-
l'll teach all of
you a lesson.
-
No one ever dared to
tease me in our college.
-
- But he is doing it.
- Who? Cousin. - l'll kill you.
-
- He is her cousin too.
- He cannot be my cousin.
-
- He is our enemy.
- Not -our' enemy.
-
He is our cousin.
-
He is so handsome
so brave!
-
He is a girl's dream boy.
-
lf not for her...
-
The thought of him makes me
shudder with allergy.
-
l've to do something about
it myself. l won't trust you.
-
Snake... Snake...
-
- Snake...
- Where is it?
-
Blood!!
-
Mother... father...
blood...
-
- Blood... Where?
- What happened?
-
He is bleeding!
What happened? Speak up.
-
l came running and
kicked the bucket of oil.
-
lt's not a big deal.-Of course
it is. You are bleeding.
-
Wipe it then.
-
Has the snake gone away?
My mother must have scared it.
-
Let me apply turmeric
to stop the bleeding.
-
l'm sorry cousin, Murari.
It isn't intentional.
-
l was teasing you in
retaliation to your teasing.
-
l got scared by the blood.
-
l like you a lot since childhood.
-
l couldn't get you off
my mind since you came here.
-
When l saw you...
-
... l totally lost control
over myself.
-
l feel shy.
-
Don't say all this to me.
l don't like it.
-
l'm a fool to come here
to say sorry to you.
-
You are a monkey.
-
Monkey, l have headache.
Bring me a coffee.
-
l want you make it yourself.
-
- l make it! - Yes.
- For you! - For me.
-
Suppose you don't
bring coffee for me...
-
... l'll tell everyone who
screamed for help...
-
... and who tried to kill me.
-
You know how much your
aunty loves me.
-
She won't leave you.
-
Won't you bring coffee?
-
Mother...
-
She never did a thing
in her life.
-
What's wrong with her today?
-
Nothing. Girls must learn cooking
not spoiled by pampering.
-
We have to think of our reputation
when she goes to in-laws.
-
So, let her do it.
Come here, dear.
-
l don't drink coffee or tea.
l drink milk.
-
Poor girl.
-
Don't feel offended.
-
Why didn't you wash my clothes?
-
Pullamma is working hard.
-
- l don't think so.
- Don't say so.
-
- Arms ache, isn't it?
- Sure.
-
Will you or will you
not wash my clothes?
-
Hey you, come and
make cow dung cakes.
-
- What! Me!
- Of course, you.
-
- Won't you do it?
- l won't.
-
The other day...
-
Oh, my daughter has
touched cow dung!!
-
Do a better job of it.
-
Do it.
l'm feeling hungry.
-
Put down your lungi.
Keep smiling.
-
That's a good job!
-
You did 15.
Do more before he comes.
-
- Let him come.
- 15...
-
Be tender. Don't hurt them.
-
Then they give more milk.
Milk is very useful.
-
- Milk is good for health.
- It's hitting me with it's tail.
-
Milk is used to make
various food items.
-
l learnt how to tame
headstrong girls like you.
-
Do you feel hurt by my words?
-
Thanks, l was going
to bathe anyway.
-
Got scared?
Hey monkey, come here.
-
Come closer.
-
Won't you?
-
- What's it?
- Come little more closer.
-
More closer.
-
More closer.
-
Button up my shirt.
l never do it myself.
-
Mother...
-
l'm getting tempted!
-
Elephant!
-
Mother, l got stuck
in the shirt.
-
- Hold it.
- It's my elephant, Ganesh.
-
Uncle, it's our elephant.
-
Move aside.
-
- Why is it here? - It hasn't
touched even water for 3 days.
-
What! Not eating for 3 days!
-
l would have come home.
Why did you take the trouble?
-
- Don't get scared. Feed it.
- She ate mine.
-
lt's my friend. You can
feed him bananas.
-
Hey monkey, you may feed it too.
-
Feeling scared!
-
Don't do it.
Listen to me.
-
Removing air?
Why?
-
l want to trouble him.
-
Are you scared?
-
That's why l told you not to come.
Everyone must have some guts.
-
This year yield is better.
-
lt all goes to Gopa aunty.
We get nothing.
-
Only sufficient enough for
gambling for 6 months.
-
We won't let you take the
grains unless we are paid wages.
-
- What nonsense? - Everybody
knows what is nonsense.
-
Many things will be exposed
if l open my mouth.
-
Anyway, l don't care.
You better pay us off.
-
They are spending your
mother's income on cards.
-
Swallowing even our wages.
-
Bulli, pay their wages.
-
We know whom to pay.
Don't interfere.
-
lt's their hard labour.
Pay up.
-
Pay up! My foot.
Let go off my stick.
-
ls there anyone else to fight?
Come forward.
-
Come on.
-
This is my mother's,
l mean ours.
-
You cultivate the fields.
So, take 500/o of the income.
-
Give us 500/o You are
in-charge of it from now.
-
Hail Murari babu.
Hail Gopamma madam.
-
That's enough.
-
Give him the money
you kept with you.
-
You used to ask what was the
difference between you two.
-
You will know when Rambabu
comes to know of it.
-
- Bulli...
- What is the matter?
-
- What happened?
- Don't act innocent.
-
- What's the matter?
-l'd have thrown away your money...
-
...if you told me so.
- Brother-in-law. - Shut up.
-
You know nothing.
Keep quiet.
-
What happened?
You taught us a great lesson.
-
My father brought you up.
Got you married too.
-
But what did you do?
-
You went away with your husband
against our wishes.
-
Now, come here and humiliate
us in front of our labourers?
-
Don't we have enough to eat?
Why do l need your money?
-
l don't need your money.
-
- Brother-in-law...
- Kannaya, keep quiet.
-
Mother doesn't know
what happened in the fields.
-
Who is your mother?
-
You claimed your mother's life
as soon as you were born.
-
And this barren woman
is your mother!
-
- Rambabu, keep quiet.
- You keep quiet.
-
How dare you raise hand on me
in my house! l won't leave you.
-
Keep off it. Move away.
-
We won't stay here anymore.
Let's go away.
-
- Don't mind his words.
- Let go off me, aunty.
-
- He is mad.
- No. He isn't.
-
This is what his feeling
are for me.
-
l agree that had no one.
-
Aunty and aunty
are everything to me.
-
They have been like
parents to me.
-
l'll be grateful to
them forever.
-
You are my brother. That's
why once year l come here...
-
... in the name of vrat
to see all of you...
-
lt's not for the sake of
income from the yield.
-
l left the home with
one set of clothes.
-
Haven't taken a single
dime from here since then.
-
Why did you accuse me
of such a thing?
-
lt's okay.
-
Aunty, l'll never come back here.
-
l'll give away what l received
in marriage, in his name.
-
Else he will cry over it too.
-
l cannot hear anymore of it.
l'll never come back.
-
- Gopi, listen to me.
- Let me go away.
-
Please stop crying.
-
You must take it seriously
if your uncle or me say it.
-
Leaving the vrat incomplete
is not good.
-
What more bad can
happen than this?
-
lt is not good for
our family.
-
Don't have problems
because of me.
-
Listen to her and complete
the vrat. l'm leaving.
-
- No, l won't... - Listen when
she says it isn't good.
-
- Bad for me too.- Don't say so.
- Listen to me. Complete the vrat.
-
- You are my sweet mother.
- l won't stay here. - You will.
-
l'm leaving. Bye.
-
l lost temper on Bullabai.
-

-
l should have talked to you
first. Sorry it didn't strike me.
-
No misunderstandings, okay?
-
Take care of mother.
-
Brother-in-law is calling you.
-
You...
-
Sattipandu's horoscope
isn't matching.
-
Not Chenayya's.
-
Not Bachi's.
-
Not Suri's.
-
Murari's...
-
Take care of him first.
-
He can take care of himself.
Stop crying.
-
Don't stare at me. Look at him.
Where is grandma?
-
Everyone, disperse.
-
Murari is a kid.
What wrong has he committed?
-
Why? Isn't he your son?
-
Don't you have any
responsibility towards him?
-
He has not lived his
life yet.
-
Don't let it happen.
-
Don't let it happen.
You will see to it.
-
lt won't happen.
You will be responsible for it.
-
l seek mercy.
-
- l'll go back, mother. - You said
you will stay for few more days.
-
Days flew fast with
Murari's company.
-
House will look empty
if you leave too.
-
She has studied enough. l cannot
stay away from her any longer.
-
- l'll come for Sankranti.
- It is 6 months away.
-
Take the change.
-
- l'll marry Murari.
- He is very handsome.
-
Shut up.
-
Shut up else l'll kill you.
-
Shut up.
-
What happened, dear?
-
You people get startled
by everything.
-
Coconut water is good
for you, a smoker.
-
How could the bunch of
coconuts fall down suddenly
-
We are lucky that
Murari is safe.
-
Are you hungry?
Eat.
-
No one has ever seen coconuts
bunch fell off by it self.
-
l'm scared.
-
- Murari's...
- Don't have any doubts.
-
l'm not sure it is
Murari this time.
-
l offered worship
in the name of family.
-
So, don't fear unnecessarily.
-
- Where are you taking me?
- Come. - Where?
-
Drink this coconut water.
-
- Vasundhara is Chanti's
daughter? - Which Vasundhara?
-
Don't pretend innocent.
You can tell me.
-
You must have liked her.
-

-
- Did you tell her so?
- No.
-
Did she tell you anything?
-
- No. - No!
- What happened there?
-
l teased her first.
Then she teased me.
-
Anything else?
-
There is more. Tell me.
-
l hugged her before
coming here.
-
That's why you are unable to keep
her off your mind. Where is she?
-
- Hostel. - Go to Hyderabad
and bring her here.
-
l don't know her feelings
for me.
-
No need to know.
-
You won't think of her if
she isn't doing the same there.
-
Go bring her here
immediately.
-
Our family don't like any of us
go to uncle's house.
-
How can l marry his daughter?
-
l'll handle everything

-
Bring her.
l promise to handle others.

- Sure. - Okay if you say so.
-
Let's marry.
-
Let's marry.
-
- Where is he?
- Eat a little.
-
You ate nothing
since yesterday.
-
- l don't care for me.
- You must have done something
-
You are blaming me now.
Later blame something else for it.
-
- Who are you?
- Vasu! - Aunty.
-
Murari is missing.
Someone abducted him.
-
He left without a word to me.
-
What do l do?
-
End of love story and
beginning of family sentiments.
-
- He is back.
- Where have you been to?
-
Stop it. Didn't you
tell them?
-
l went to town to bring
medicines for Ganesh.
-
Told Sattipandu to
inform mother.
-
Uncle, why did you lie to me!
-
- Why? - l forgot about it
when l saw you crying.
-
She was worried about you.
Didn't even eat food.
-
Has she gone mad? - Ask her.
-
- Come here. - Chanti and
us are not in good terms.
-
- What is that girl's name?
- Vasundhara.
-
How could she come here
suddenly with luggage!!
-
- Why do you look scared?
- Of course not.
-
- l suspect something.
- Me too.
-
Murari was missing since morning.
She landed with luggage.
-
He came in
immediately after her.
-
He looked as if he
travelled a lot...
-
l suspect some connection
between him and the girl.
-
How dare you suspect him!
-
l cannot believe
you are my sons! Get lost.
-
You and your stupid ideas.
-
He called you stupid.
-
You create a big scene
by crying...
-
... and trouble others
for nothing.
-
Look at Sattipandu.
No one can take care of mother.
-
Why is this monkey here?
-
Oh, yes l forgot about her.
-
- l.
- Must be for research.
-
Yes, for research.
-
What research will you do here?
-
l mean...
-
She will complete her
research here.
-
lt that the reason or she
couldn't stay away from me?
-
Don't brag.
-
Don't say anything to him.
-
- Where do you study?
- How long will you study?
-
ls your research
is on agriculture or...
-
- What happened?
- What happened?
-
- What happened?
- Nothing.
-
- Where is the cow shed.
- l'll show you.
-
What is the meaning
of research?
-
Why is he so happy?
-
There is something fishy.
Don't get confused.
-
Suri, why are you here?
What are you talking to self?
-
Say something. Why is that
expression on your face.
-
What's the matter?
-
Suspect something between
she and me? That's wrong.
-
Give the shirt for washing.
-
He went that way.
l'll slip away this way.
-
- Gopi... - Yes, grandma?
Who is that girl with you?
-
- Vasundhara.
- Chanti's daughter?
-
- She came yesterday. You went to
temple. - You are beautiful.
-
- Is Chanti fine?
- Yes.
-
Why didn't you answer her
question?
-
Should have touched her feet.
-
- What are you doing here?
- Prayers are going on here, you see.
-
- Go wash your face.
- Okay.
-
Wait. l've to
chase away the crows.
-
- What do we do now?
- How do l know?
-
- l brought her on your saying.
- You brought her!
-
- She is beautiful.
- Sure. What is next?
-
What can l suggest? My sons
are already suspecting me.
-
l'm hiding from them.
-
What do we do next?
-
Why do you ask me again!!
-
- What's going on?
- Why has he come here?
-
Don't act. You suspect
that l've brought her.
-
lsn't it wrong to
think so?
-
Get down.
Get out this way.
-
What's it now?
Don't turn back. Go.
-
- What to do now?
- You ask me again?
-
ldea!
-
How about telling mother
the truth.
-
She will send me back
immediately.
-
What?
-
- l really have an idea
this time. - Tell me.
-
Why not tell this to
sisters-in-law? - Good idea.
-
l've seen nothing.
-
l got tempted.
-
l'll tell this to sisters-in-law.
Come closer.
-
- Doors are open.
- l've bolted them.
-
No one will come in.
-
Sister-in-law
the matter is,.'..
-
l went to Gopakka's house.
We fell in love there.
-
She came here for me.
Didn't you like her?
-
- But, your brother...
- Do you both like her?
-
- We like her.
- Thank God.
-
My brothers never

-
Close your eyes.
-
Take those candles to
terrace, to grandma.
-
- Okay, uncle.
- but, - Stay back.
-
Let me go.
-
Someone might see us.
-
Hold them tight.
Don't drop them.
-
l'm getting tempted.
-
- Gardening?
- Spraying medicines.
-
- You work hard.
- It's our job isn't it.
-
- Uncle Chanti says the same.
- He is a hardworking man.
-
What went wrong
between our families?
-
Not serious. Rambabu
said something to grandma.
-
Elder brother pulled him
by collar. He hit our brother.
-
Matter became an issue
of prestige.
-
- So nothing is wrong
with the girl. - Which girl?
-
- That monkey.
- Her name is Vasundhara.
-
- She is a good girl.
- She is educated isn't it?
-
She pulled out our plants with
roots in the name of research.
-
- She is smart. - Mother and
grandma feel bad about the past.
-
l feel bad too.
But what can l do?
-
What if l marry Vasundhara?
-
l thought it will clear
our differences...
-
... between mother and.....
Are you angry?
-
- It's excellent.
- Sattipandu said the same.
-
- Come here.
- He agreed too.
-
What should we to make all
others go to uncle's house?
-
- l don't know.
- Theirs is a good family.
-
They are nice people
l didn't want to come back.
-
What's the use?
-
- Coming, grandma.
- What's it, grandma?
-
- What's the matter?
- Don't talk else l'll kill you.
-
- What if mother sees us?
- l said don't talk.
-
What are you doing?
-
Oh, l'm getting tempted.
-
This is my plan
for a palace.
-
Good plan.
-
You suspect there is something
going on between us.
-
And l brought her here.
-

-
She is after all Chanti uncle's
daughter. A good match for you.
-
Now listen.

-
Let's tell mother
about it.
-
Your brother will get
enraged.
-

-
... she will accompany you
when you go to parental home.
-
Brothers will come too.

All of us can go there.

But your brother is...

-
Murari is a good boy,
you saw him when he came here.
-
He likes Vasundhara.
-
All of us like Vasundhara.
-
She is beautiful.
She is gone on her mother.
-
We think they are
made for each other.
-
Came to ask for your
daughter's hand for Murari.
-
- For that,...
- Let me tell you first.
-
Vasundhara is in our house now.
-
Don't go.
-
- l'm scared.
- For what?
-
l expect flare up of
tempers.
-
l wonder what will be
the reaction of my family.
-
- l'm confused.
- l'm confused.
-
l'll do the talking
so, calm down.
-
But, l'm nervous.
-
Reading my palm?
-
You never take
anything seriously.
-
l'm tense and
you are taking it lightly.
-
We don't have to fear
anyone when...
-
... what we did is
not wrong.
-
Am l right?
-
Father!!
-
Uncle, l love Vasu
she loves me.
-
We want to marry
We want consent of all of you.
-
l'm at fault for not
thinking about this.
-
l should have done it long ago.
You are lucky, dear.
-
- Satti. - Yes.
- When do we make it formal?
-
What do you demand in
dowry and other presents?
-
What do you give us?
What do you expect from me.
-
Stop great dialogues.
Just bring a pot of water...
-
... to wash the feet
of the groom.
-
- l'll bring perfumed water.
- Then bring 2 potful.
-
- Chanti, when did you come.
- Just now.
-
- Mother... - Yes.

-
We have decided that...
-

-
All of us have...
You tell her.
-
- l won't tell her.
- Someone tell me please.
-
l'll tell you.
-
All of you move back.
Hey monkey, you come here.
-
Come here. Do you know what
happened in your absence?
-
They pressurized me
to marry this monkey.
-
Do you know what l said?
-
l said l cannot do
it if you don't agree.
-
Am l lying?
Speak, Sattipandu.
-
Do you consent to our marriage?
-
- You... - What's it!
- Madam...
-
Come with me.
-
Answer us first.
-
Murari is destined
to die.
-
Vasu will become a widow
just like you.
-
Don't make Vasundhara...
-
... a widow at a tender age.
O God...
-
- Murari...
- What is the matter?
-
What's the matter Seshaiya?
What happened, grandma??
-
- O my, son.
- What's the matter?
-
- What's it?
- What's it?
-
This marriage shouldn't
take place. Must not.
-
Shouldn't.
Must not.
-
Great sentiment.
-
l was expecting to
hear it.
-
You are asked to bless us.
-
And you bless her to
become a widow like you!
-
Why take opinion of
a widow in the 1st place?
-
You...
-
Look the other way.
-
Stop it.
-
- Stop it.
- Let go off me.
-
calm down.
-
Calm down, dear.
-
Let's go.
-
Grandma didn't give
her consent.
-
l won't do anything without
her approved. Forgive me, uncle.
-
Go away with your family
including your daughter.
-
Didn't you hear?
Isn't that enough?
-
Don't ask me anything
l won't answer.
-
None of you go out of the
house without my permission.
-
No one steps out
no matter what happens.
-
Especially, you.
-
Swear on me that you won't.
-
l can do nothing.
-
Get lost.
-
- Listen.
- Nothing doing.
-
Cannot you hear me?
Cannot you understand me?
-
Take her away. Go.
-
Our family is cursed.
-
lt not just a curse but
your family has to pay for it.
-
God has given us the best of
lives as human beings.
-
We destroy ourselves.
Culprits have to be punished.
-
l cannot help you
l'm helpless.
-
A life should be sacrificed.
-
lt is a certainty.
-
What's wrong with you?
-
Aren't you ashamed
to raise hand on a girl?
-
No one talks.
-
No one has brains even
though you are elder to me.
-
They hugged you
and you melted!
-
What is so special
about that boy?
-
They rejected us
after announcing it to all.
-
He is confident that
no one will marry her now.
-
He thinks we get scared
and fall at his feet.
-
Accept that we are
cowards cannot get her married.
-
Beg him to marry her
or keep her as a keep.
-
lsn't it the meaning?
-
Tomorrow by this time
l'll get you married.
-
He will be our son-in-law.
He will marry Vasu.
-
l'll see who stops me.
-
Die here.
-
lf something goes wrong,
l'll kill her and kill myself.
-
- What's the matter, uncle?
- Where is Sattipandu?
-
- He went to bring holy river
Godavari water. -When will he come?
-
- What's the matter?
- Nothing everything is fine.
-
- What happened to Vasu?
- Don't leave the havan.
-
Wait. You won't come without
a reason. What about Vasu?
-
Rambabu is getting her
married to Bulli in the evening.
-
He is threatening to kill her
and himself if things go wrong.
-
Her life is ruined.
-
Murari where are you going!
You cannot leave!
-
- Vasu is... - You cannot
Ieave no matter what's the reason.
-
- But....
- Don't ask me. l won't answer.
-
- Have you gone crazy?
- You will go over my dead body.
-
You are least concerned
about others.
-
Vasu dies for falling
in love with Murari.
-
Murari dies for
falling in love for her.
-
She is still harbouring
grudge against Rambabu.
-
She is stopping Murari even though
it's life and death for Vasundhara.
-
You have to tell
us why cannot he go.
-
No one can disobey grandma.
-
Okay. Murari don't go.
Let Vasu die.
-
So what?
Grandma has her way isn't it?
-
She sure has grudge.
-
Why don't you talk?
-
- l'll tell you.
- No, you won't.
-
No. They must know
the truth.
-
As per the horoscope of
Murari and the...
-
... indications that we have been
noticing for years,...
-
... it is sure...
-
... that Murari is going
to die next.
-
Kannaya...
Why does he have to die?
-
What is this about the curse
like a story in children's magazine?
-
l'm sorry. l'm going
to die today? So what?
-
l can understand your pain.
-
You have seen grandpa's death.
so, believe that l'll die too.
-
l know you are afraid
that, if l marry Vasu,...
-
... she too will become
a widow like you.
-
lsn't it? people misunderstood
you unnecessarily.
-
You think l'll die if l go out.
-
ls there any guarantee that
l'll be live if l stay indoors?
-
ls there any guarantee?
You have no answer isn't it?
-
According to you l'm
destined to die...
-
... no matter where l go
or stay.
-
So all those prayers, Yagna's
are efforts to save my life.
-
l won't sit quiet like a
coward if l'm to die anyways.
-
l'll try to save Vasu.
-
Why should l die?
l've done nothing wrong.
-
l don't know how far these
superstitions come true.
-
l have no experience
are brains to understand it.
-
l know only one thing.
-
That is determination.
-
Man can do anything
if he has determination.
-
He can fight against anything
as long as he is pure.
-
Now, l vow to,...
-
... for the sake of you,
mother...
-
... and all of you...
-
... including myself,
that l'll live.
-
l'm surprised at my
own dialogues.
-
Seshiah what am l
supposed to do?
-
We have completed Kumbahabhishekam
and Purnabhishekam.
-
l'll be back by evening
with Vasu.
-
Then l'll complete all of
rituals, for your sake.
-
Bless me.
-
May Vasu die but l won't
Iet you go out.
-
Nothing will happen to me
stop crying. - Don't go.
-
Stop crying.
-
You are my must lovable mother.
l'll be back with Vasu.
-
Take care of mother.
-
You have guts. Go bring Vasu.
Leave the rest to us.
-
No one can harm you.
Go.
-
You have done no wrong.
Nothing will happen to you. Go.
-
Mother...
-
Stop crying. Go to
Murari you love.
-
l'll handle the consequences
here.
-
Mother...
-
Do you think you can
disobey us?
-
Who are you to question
father's decision?
-
Vasu is running away.
Catch her.
-
Vasu stop. We cannot
run anymore.
-
Stop it, Bulli.
-
We want to marry.
Why fight unnecessarily?
-
Let it go, please.
-
l promised grandma that
l'll be back for the rituals.
-
She will be angry if l go late.
And you won't listen to my advice.
-
Go, bring Vasu.
-
Let go off me.
-
He is innocent. Let him go.
Don't hurt him.
-
lt's not his fault.
Let him go.
-
What's the matter?
-
- Oh l'm getting tempted.
- You...
-
Blood!...
-
l'm innocent...
-
Bulli...
-
... what have you done!
-
What have you done!
-
l won't die.
l won't die.
-
l'll live at any cost.
-
l'll live.
-
Grandma must not
see me bleeding.
-
Oh, l'm getting tempted.
-
Old lady, l'm coming.
-
l'm coming.
-
Vasu has fainted.
Sprinkle water on her.
-
You came to know about it too.
-
- What is this?
- Muck
-
My old lady!
Oh, l must not touch you.
-
See. Nothing happened to me.
-
Get ready for the procession.
-
- Come on, quick.
- Nothing will happen to me.
-
Get turmeric water
ready for me.
-
Blood!
-
Don't raise alarm. Go.
-
Doctor, bring ambulance
to the temple. It's urgent.
-
All of you move away.
-
Let him go around the temple.
Don't touch him till then.
-
So, move away.
-
No matter what, you must not put
the Goddess on the ground.
-
Come on. Walk.
-
No one touches him.
Murari, get up. Lift her up.
-
Walk.
-
Goddess seeks sacrifice.
-
Murari, get up.
-
Move away.
Don't obstruct him.
-
Hold it tight.
Pray to Goddess.
-
Murari seek mercy of Goddess.
-
- Father-in-law...
- Don't disturb us.
-
Gopi, keep quiet for a while.
-
What happened to him?
-
Complete the abhishekam, fast.
-
Hurry up.
-
O Goddess, you have
to save my son.
-
Grandma...
-
Where are you going?
-
You are fine my dear.
-
Where is grandma?.
