Wow.
It's new. He brought
it from Kolkata.
Who is he, Daddy?
Brother Noor.
Noor. Noor Ali. He is a
different person today.
He was a very poor carpenter,
brought up at his. .
. .elder brother's place.
His elder brother got him married
to a girl they knew.
Sakina. He got married to Sakina.
He got them married and also
created a rift between them. .
. .within a year.
Some fictitious and some true
complaints were made.
The village council heard the case.
All dowry that the
bride had brought. .
. .was taken into account.
These were divided, conditions
were hammered out.
The divorce papers were made ready.
They divorced.
within a year, the two remarried.
Noor wed according to his
elder brother's wishes.
Noor's cousin, Meher, does odd
jobs at people's houses.
All Meher has to call his own
is his little plot of farmland.
Meher fell in love and married
the same Sakina.
Sakina is a mother of three today.
Saira.
- Coming.
Saira.
Go check on your brother.
what's the matter?
Saira.
- He is hungry.
Oh, sonny boy.
Oh, sweetie pie, what happened?
what happened, dear?
You don't need to do that.
l'll do the kitchen.
No, dear. what happened, dear?
No, sweetie, no.
Yes, do that.
Shaju went early in the morning.
He isn't back yet.
He has gone to
the fields with father.
He'll spend the entire day at
the fields. Like his father.
I tell your father that the boy
is smart. He is fit for school.
we'll educate him.
who listens to me?
He'll be like his father.
Do odd labour jobs
at people's houses.
Dear boy, what happened?
Do some studies now.
Are you sleepy, dear?
what a cry baby he is! Shaju
and you were not like this.
Do you know what Shaju says?
'I'm grown up,
I will wear trousers now. '
And he says that he'll study
with a private tutor.
Then again he says, ''Oh, no, a
private tutor is expensive. ''
Shaju is. .
They weren't divorced then.
Noor had his grandmother's. .
. . nose ring. she had given
it to him on the sly.
Noor gave that nose ring
to sakina. On the sly.
sakina would wear it on the sly.
Noor kept the nose ring a
secret when the village. .
. .council was dividing
their belongings.
He didn't let anyone know.
Noor wasn't the fighting type.
One day, compelled by poverty,
he sent his wife. .
. .away to her parents house.
He didn't care for anyone and
left for a Middle East. .
. .country entirely empty-handed.
Years passed by and Noor's
fortunes changed.
One day, Noor returned.
He was loaded with money.
He was well off, but didn't
sit on his wealth.
He invested it in different ways.
This became a topic
of conversation. .
. .with the villagers.
where are you going, Matin?
Peace to you.
Peace to you too.
Are you going to Noor Ali's house?
Yes, it's that way, right?
Yes, that way. Come.
l hear he has redecorated
the haunted house.
I don't know if it
was haunted or not.
I saw nothing except
snakes and frogs.
Look what he has done with it.
Yes. People are talking about it.
who is he doing all this for?
- You are right.
They are just the two of them.
I hear he has come back
quite rich from abroad.
He has. I heard it too.
That way. Do it that way.
He said that. .
Hey, you.
- The money was taken. .
Greetings.
- Greetings.
The way he has earned money.
Brother Afsar.
You recognised me.
won't I recognise you?
You've taken me piggy back. .
. . many times in childhood.
Piggy back?
Don't you remember? You would
give me a ride on your back?
Yes, on my back. Once you
even fell off my back.
I fell down?
- Yes.
No, you must've thrown me off.
And I am. .
Don't say it. Uncle Rahmat.
How can I forget you?
You're the only one with a
hand operated machine in. .
. .the village.
You know it?
You've a spray machine too.
- Yes.
You've a machine for
winnowing of crops.
You see, it's all for them.
For the village folk.
They work so hard day and night.
I couldn't bear to see it.
I thought if I could get a. .
. . machine for them.
That's all.
Idiot.
You are. .
You haven't forgotten anyone.
Yes, it seems so.
I thought he has forgotten you too.
Uncle, how about some tea?
How is your uncle?
Uncle passed away.
Oh. I didn't know.
How would you? You
weren't here then.
That's true. Hey, listen.
why don't you visit the shop?
- Actually. .
You all know his father?
- Yes.
He rolls bidis ( rolled cigarettes )
well. - Yes.
I went to his house and asked
him to oversee my shop.
And he. .
Listen.
- Yes.
Do come to the shop, okay?
Yes.
- Okay?
I'll come for sure.
- Do come.
How are you?
- Fine.
I'll be back.
He came here in the morning.
- Yes.
Didn't you go? You. .
Do you recognise me?
Do you recognise us?
Yes. what's this?
Hey.
You're still like that.
The way you were.
That was a long time ago.
You had a daughter then.
she was about two or
three years old. Right?
I've a son too now.
How is everyone?
Good, l hope.
why don't you visit us some day?
You asked him to come? You did.
Don't you've any shame?
why? what is there
to be ashamed about?
If you knew that, you wouldn't
ask him to come home.
Didn't it occur to you
what people would say?
Listen, it's his cousin's house.
why would anyone gossip if
he visits his cousin's house?
Only a cousin?
You bring that up again?
Bring what up?
what indeed !
what did I say?
why are you angry all of a sudden?
won't I be angry?

why bring up a third?

Yes.
Hey, listen.
Come.
Come listen.
Come here.

You've grown so much in a few years.
After you is shahjehan.

- At school.
How come you're at home?
I don't go to school anymore.
You don't?
- No. I study at home.
Oh. Has your dad gone to work?
- Yes.
Isn't there anybody else at home?
Mum and my brother.
Brother? You said he

Shaju has gone to school.
Oh, this one is younger than Shaju?
Yes, he is younger. Very much so.
He is a year old.
Oh. Tell your father

the neighbouring village.

I told you he'd come.
I met him on the way.
where are you?
Hey, Shaju.
what happened? Shaju.
Shaju.
Komila. Komila.
No patience.
How does it look?
Did you call me for this?
Doing craft like this by yourself
brings so much pleasure.
But one must keep in touch.
Get it?
Oh, dear, let me see. what happened?
- It's nothing.
Nothing? It's bleeding.
It's okay.
- I'll put some medicine.
No need.
Don't do what is not your work.
You do what is your work.
Get me a cup of tea.
They've been waiting
for a long time.
Oh. It's about the pond?
Ask them to go to Jalpada,
I'll follow.
Please go to Jalpada, he'll follow.
Come. Look, that's the pond.
It's been lying like

In short, you can't delay the work.
Do what you think is right.
Can you do it?
Yes. why not?
what is your name?
- Nasir.
Nasir. Good. You?
Gafoor.

what say?
- Yes.
I came by your land. It's fertile.
Yes. Machine. It's all
the machine's doing.
Now, I'll grow more crops.
Three harvests a year.
If our forefathers had these
facilities, we wouldn't have. .
. . had to slog like this.
Don't say that. Machines
too need hard work.
You need to know how it works.
But that Rahmat. .
Look at him. He talks of land.
wherever I go, I see him
standing. Idiot.
He is so concerned about everything.
Do you know how much interest
has accumulated?
I know. That is why I don't
go there any more.
But I'm doing fine. I harvest
crops, repay my debt and. .
. . pay interest.
I work hard everywhere.
You can really manage it all.
You must if you've a family.
Take my son, Shaju, I can't
even take him out of school.
And that idiot, Rahmat Ali.
Look how he stands there.
Go home. Instead he stands
there in the sun.
Open the umbrella.
He sucks people's blood.
He threatens us with the village
council at the drop of. .
. .a hat.
Village council indeed. Idiot.
As if the village council
is his personal property.
Look, do you recognise it?
Is it recognisable?
what are you saying, Uncle Matin?
Not recognise it.
why is it in this state?
Exactly. They were big
landowners at one time.
He went around taking over
the entire village.
Look at it now. It was an epidemic.
A malaria epidemic cleaned
out the entire family.
The entire family.
That is what I say.
who are you doing all this for?
why do you need so much?
I understand.
- what?
Am I not right? Tell me.
I know. I know what you want to say.
No one comes this way
nowadays, right?
who will come here to be assaulted. .
. . by bats and crickets?
At one time, we. .
That was a long time ago.
we played 'cops-and-robbers' here.
we did too. Hide-and-seek.
I remember, I would
be the cop and Meher. .
. .I mean my cousin brother.
I know. He is a very fine boy.
But he has to work so hard.
He would be the robber.
He won all the time.
Here now, gone the next minute.
who's there? who's there?
Aren't you Meher's wife?
what are you doing here?
I'm taking a few bricks.
I'll use them.
But why you? where is Meher?
You could've brought your son.
will you manage alone?
- Yes.
I can do it.
who's there? who?
Me, it's me.
Uncle Rahmat.
Is Meher home?
- No he isn't.
No? Not there?
It's so late and he isn't home?
This isn't right. when is he in?
Uncle Rahmat, please leave now.
Oh, why? where is he?
At Ghazi's brick kiln.
- Brick kiln? Now?
Go check it out, he may be
fooling around in the. .
. . marketplace at Bheegyo's.
Bheegyo?
Please leave now.
Can't I wait a little longer?
Go.
Are you asking me to leave?
Okay, I'll go. Tell him.
Tell him, I'll come again.

sakina set out in the same sari. .

the neighbouring village.
His elder daughter started her
labour pains since night.
sakina has no equal as a midwife.
If she helps in the delivery,
the newborn is considered lucky.
so, everyone seeks sakina.
They feel confident.
That's why uncle Gafoor left home
in a rush in the morning.
Oh, sakina, you've come. Come.
You came and a baby boy brought
light into our home! Go.
Go inside.

and then in front of me.
Then he ran up to the terrace
and came running down.
Back to the mirror and
