A boy
A village boy.
Poor, but sensitive
Father, a priest. He dies
The boy doesn't want to be a priest.
He wants to study, he's ambitious
He studies
In the process, I see him struggle
He sheds superstition and prejudice
He tries to be rational
He has imagination,
he's intrigued by little things
He has greatness in him, perhaps.
He has the ability to create
But he doesn't
Right, but that's not a tragedy
He remains poor, in want
But he doesn't turn from life,
he doesn't want to escape
He is fulfilled, he wants to live
This is autobiography
Partly, but there are imaginary
characters, plot, love...
Love?
What do you know of love?
You've never been
within ten paces of a girl
It's not that easy,
you have no experience
- Is imagination worth nothing?
- Not where love is concerned
- You're quite wrong
- I'm absolutely right
How much further wilt thou lead me,
O Fair One?
Tell me what shore thy golden boat
will touch
Whatever I ask thee, O thou
from distant lands
Thou smilest in thine own sweet way
And I can never know
what is in thy mind
Silently, thou liftest a finger
pointing to the trackless, wild sea
As, far to the west,
the sun goes down in the sky
What lies there?
What do we go to seek?
Tell me, I pray thee,
O stranger fair
Where, at the edge of evening,
glows the day...
Give me your hand
Wonderful. Really wonderful
Look who is here!
It's Pulu, and not alone
I hope the journey was not
too unpleasant for city people
My youngest son, Murari.
He's studying at Daulatpur College
Take his luggage
My aunt
It's a pity you didn't think of him
as a possible son-in-law
Where have I seen him before?
Lmpossible. He's never been here
But I know his face so well
Yes, I saw a picture of Lord Krishna
looking just like him
Lord Krishna...
...complete with his flute
Binu, my son, come out now
What's wrong? Isn't he well?
It's nothing. The sun was so hot
The long journey and the fasting
must have upset him
Bring water, and a fan
This is a fine wedding
That boy is insane
Who says so? He is perfectly sane.
The journey and the heat...
If you don't stop the wedding, I will
But the auspicious hour is passing
Leave this room!
It's you who is mad
When the hour has passed,
Isn't there another auspicious hour,
at ten?
Don't ask me. This means ruin for me
Have I missed the ceremony?
There's no wedding
The bridegroom is mad
Apu, everything depends on you now
Are you joking?
What is all this?
If the wedding does not take place
at the auspicious times...
...the bride is cursed
But what can I do?
