Wouldn't you love to be the Head Priest?

- Dawn is breaking -

- Washing away the cover of darkness -

- Awaken! -

Whose baby is this?

What's wrong?

Vedika was playing outside.

A woman was thirsty

She gave Vedika the baby

and went to drink water

She didn't return

What?

You brought in a child from the street?

Not knowing his caste,

how dare you touch him?

It's a Brahmin's child

Vedika had asked the mother

You shouldn't have brought the baby home

His mother must be worried

Go back and wait for her

Vedika waited for 4 hours.

She didn't return

I hope all is well

You did tell her that you were

Punditji's daughter, didn't you?

Then she'll surely find her way here

You can go into the temple.

Everything's ready

Take him there. Play with him

Will you do the morning prayers

in the afternoon?

I have to boil milk for the child

He'll be hungry when he wakes up1

He'll disrupt Vedika's studies

He has already disrupted your

duties towards God

What if he was our own child?

I'm sure God will forgive the delay

He knows everything

You are right. God is omniscient

You little brat!

Mother, look what he has done!

I'll iron another uniform for you

Go, take a bath

I rushed home after the temple prayers...

to prepare everything for your father

But this little one is intent on delaying me

Vedika!

Pick him up!

I can't. I'm going for a bath.

I'll get late

I'll pick him when I finish

preparing the prayer plate

It's almost done

I'll just bring the plate

'Salutations to the mighty Lord Shiva'

Your love for this child has blinded you

I will have to bathe again

Has he made you bathe twice?

Mother, I'm leaving

I'll get your breakfast

- Mother, I've had the gruel

He was crying so much...

I thought Mani would be

here to mind him...

but she didn't come

I should've made your breakfast

I can take care of myself

From tomorrow, I'll wake up early

and help you...

That won't be necessary

If the child's mother doesn't

show up by tomorrow...

Inspector Sharma will take him away

It's good that you have come, dear

Wash your hands and make some

wheat pancakes for me

Or I too will have to eat gruel or

fodder meant for the cow

- How do I open my heart to you?

- I am devoted only to you

- My lord and master

- You are my world

- The colour of your love...

- Is the colour I wear

- Oh my lord, my love

- I am devoted only to you

Bastard! How dare you take

photographs of my sister!

Please don't beat him.

It's not his fault

- All that I see is you

Don't hit him so much that he dies

- My words speak only of you... -

- Even as the tears of love

- Wash away the kohl in my eyes

- You remain my beloved

The fault lies with our own people
