You an outsider?

No, I'm very much from here...

Ran away as a child to Dhanbad.

...Coal mines...

They call it "Black Diamond."

It's hard work...

If you do it well - you get money!

Hard cash

and if you work hard,

you get respect too.

But I am free spirited.

Just felt like it...

so coming back home.

Which village?

Gehlore.

Gehlore?

- Yes.

You'll cross the whole mountain?

Sure!

- My God...

What name did you say?

What name did you say?

When did I say anything uncle?

Now I am saying it.

Dashrath is my name.

After 7 years when he returned, the

village had not changed a bit...

...As if it had been

forgotten by time.

Your shoe... keep it on my head.

What are you saying Ivlukhiyaji?

Keep it... keep it...

Please don't make me sin, sir.

It is not your fault.

What happened?

The Government has abolished

the 'caste system'...

Next they will

abolish the landlords.

The country will burn.

Has everyone gone mad?

Don't worry.

So what if a law is made'?

Who will implement it?

Damn fools...

Good Morning Ivlukhiya ji.

L-low are you'?

You have not changed a bit.

Still the same glow...

And you!

You have changed completely.

Handsome... healthy...

Manly smile on the face.

Son...

Forgive me.

I... didn't recognize you.

L-low will you recognize me'?

We are meeting after 7 years.

How?

I'm Dashrath.

Get away! You scum

I heard, the government made

everyone equal...

We can touch anybody.

You son of worm,

Can a frog become a horse

by wearing a horse shoe?

Government loosens the grip...

so will you piss on my head?

Give him such a thrashing that...

...he never ever...

...forgets his caste!

Eyes down... eyes
