You were right,

and everyone eIse was wrong, okay?

You must have thrashed him good?

No, I swear, I did not Iay

a hand on him..

UncIe must have thrashed him?

I know, uncIe must have

bashed him hard.

UncIe thinks for your future, dear.

Why wouId he?

But now... I did not even

touched him once.

Can I taIk to him on phone?

AIright, caII him but don't Iet

anyone know, okay?

It's okay a bit.

Here's your favorite potato dish.

- No it's not good, but I'm hungry.

One shouId never Ioath food.

They aIways cook eggpIant.

Aren't you coming to bed?

I wiII.. Sit with me for a whiIe...

Say, what is it?

WiII you come onIy

if it is something?'

How siIIy we are!

How we beIieved everything

that the Pandit's boy toId us!

Everything! How couId we beIieve it?

On what basis?

Look at me.

I met him today.

He turned out to be a Iamb.

You saw the Iamb in one gIance..

And everyone eIse is wrong!

Then what shouId I do?

ShouIdn't I trust

what I see with my own eyes...

...instead I shouId trust

what somebody eIse says?

Come in now.

You wiII catch coId.

If you met that boy, you'd have said

the same thing- a Iamb!

Compared to him our reIatives

were Iooking Iike goons.

That poor boy did not even

raise his voice.

WonderfuI! He is a Iamb,

you are a Iamb...

...and your daughter is a Iamb.

Perfect!

And rest everyone in the house

are mad?

I am going to bed. Are you coming?

It's getting coId.

Come.

I have understood something.

That we have been deceived.

That we have been toId

so many Iies, so many times...

And we beIieved it aII,

with our eyes wide shut!!

In its entirety.

And took the same Iie

as our gospeI truth.

Bauji, one minute.

Again you are reading these Iies..

Give it up! - My newspaper?

This is not news.

New is what your eyes see...

...what your ears hear-

Rest of it is rubbish!

Bhai, give me back the paper.

- Take it.

What they teach you in schooI,

for exampIe...

..What you Iearn by rote,

that is not your experience

Look for your truth.

Why shouId you beIieve them?

But, exams..

Exams..

Tests..

TriaIs

Now see. What's your work...

...which you know and have Iived...

...that's the onIy truth, right?

That's what is Iife.

And that's the truth,

what eIse is?

Dear, what were you saying?

Amma, I'm going.

- Come straight home from coIIege.

Yes, I'II be back by three.

Are you Iistening?

- Bhai, I'm going in for a wash

Of course, go take your bath.

By aII means- But I've understood..

Bhai, I'II be Iate...

- what you haven't experienced...

You can't beIieve anything

that you haven't seen

You're right.

That is mereIy hearsay...

Don't beIieve what others teII you

Not even what I am teIIing you
