Uncle!
Where's dad?
See there!
Uncle!
See there!
Hail Goddess Durga!
Take.
Write letters for the
next 12 days. One each day.
What if I don't have
anything to write?
Then write the same.
And what if I forget?
Then you won't be forgiven.
Really?
What'll you do?
Dare to forget, first.
What happened?
Why are you leaving?
I have to attend college.
I've an exam.
I've to clear it.
What's the use?
Meaning?
You're doing all this for a job.
Yes.
- And daily wages means money.
Yes.
As if you're falling short of money?
Then?
When he was studying in England..
..was Raja Ram Mohan Roy,
short of money?
No.
Do you know?
How intelligent your husband is?
Do you know what the
professors say about me?
As if you can't be
educated without learning English.
Isn't your brother educated?
Yes,, he is. But it's
the same ancient thing.
There's a difference of an
age between me and my brother.
Do you understand?
You didn't understand?
You won't understand.
Yes.
Suppose, I pass the exams.
And get an opportunity to go abroad.
Then I'll have to go.
Will you come with me
Why won't l? I'll
accompany you wherever you go.
Tell me.
What if father doesn't agree?
He won't be able to live without me.
Assume that I've convinced father.
Then?
How'll Khokha stay without me?
Khokha will stay.
Will he be able to?
As if there's only one small boy.
Whatever it is.
I won't call you
as 'mother' anymore.
You've given me, you've helped me.
You're the light of my path.
I won't call you
as 'mother' anymore.
I call out to you repeatedly..
..as mother. Mother!
Have you remained as a mother?
You've become my eye, guiding me
through, I call out to you repeatedly..
..as mother! Mother!
Have you remained a mother?
You've become my eye.
Provided me with knowledge.
Mother, listen to
the pleas of your son.
Can a son survive if his
mother dies? I won't call you as..
..'mother' anymore. You've
given me, you've helped me.
You're the light of my path.
I won't call you
as 'mother' anymore.
I'll go from house to
house and beg for food.
I won't come to take
shelter in your arms.
I won't call you
as 'mother' anymore.
You've given me, you've helped me.
You're the guiding light of my path.
I won't call you as 'mother'.
Mother! Give me something.
Mother!
The load of work
that I've given to you..
..are you unhappy about that, dear?
What else can you do, mother?
This old son..
..can't do anything much for you.
Oh God!
Should I be paying
attention to you all the time?
As if I don't have
anything else to do.
No.
Don't call out to me when
I'm at work. Understood?
Aunt! Aunt!
Won't eat from my hands,
or do anything else.
Close you eyes.
Don't open it.
Open your mouth.
Wait a minute.
Give.
Whom will you give it to?
To the postman.
Give it.
Come back straight, after giving it.
Postman uncle!
You don't have to sing anymore.
Go to sleep.
Lie down properly.
Only then will I narrate stories
Now, lie down properly.
What story?
That's a very good story.
You'll like it very much.
Stay there, I'll be back.
Jairam!
Mother! Give me some rest.
Give it.
Does mother appear before you..
..just because you call her name?
Can you tell me how many
people have such a mother?
5 years back.
When I wasn't able to
walk without a stick.
Hadn't mother been there..
..then I wouldn't have been
able to come back to this state.
Do you know what all I did, dear?
I couldn't find peace
of mind in this world.
So I thought..
..that going to the
pilgrimage spot in Tarapore would..
..be a good idea.
But that wasn't to happen.
You came into this house.
The house was brightened up.
Then the desire died down.
In this old age..
..when I've got a mother like you..
..she of course is
the Mother Goddess.
She can make the impossible,
possible.
What do you say?
Do you know what I'm afraid of?
I'm afraid about your husband.
Nowadays, it isn't easy to
handle such a fast paced boy.
You're the only one
who can control him.
He listens to whatever you say.
Does he?
Does he write
letters to you regularly?
Or does he miss that too? What?
Does he?
Does he write letters everyday?
What if I had died of shock?
Then it would've been very nice.
It would've been nice?
Then from where would
you listen to stories?
Mother. - And who would've
applied kohl to your eyes?
Mother.
And who would've fed you?
Mother.
Then go and sleep with your mother.
Why've you come here?
Tell me a story.
What story?
What story?
The story of a demoness.
Which demoness?
There're a lot of demonesses.
The one that savors the flesh..
..of small children.
There was a demoness.
One day she..
Mother!
Mother!
Mother!
Why didn't you tell this to
me for so many days, mother?
Father!
What are you doing?
Prostrate before her, son.
I was told through a dream that
she's the incarnation of the Goddess.
O Mother Goddess! O
mother of the world!
Bless me!
Mother!
What happened, mother?
Mother has entered into a state
of Samadhi (spiritual trance).
Mother!
How are you?
Which house is this, sister?
This is your house from today.
Why?
Because God has said so.
It's good for you.
don't have to climb any stairs.
They'll worship you
in the morning and..
..the evening, as
you're an incarnation.
