Lootera

Synopsis: The year is 1953. A visiting archaeologist called Varun Shrivastav comes to the village of Manikpur in West Bengal to excavate the temple grounds of the local Zamindar. With knowledge and experience beyond his young demeanour, Varun greatly impresses the Zamindar and his family. Especially Pakhi, the Zamindar's feisty and only daughter, who finds herself irrevocably drawn towards him. But Varun isn't all he seems on the surface. And as the simmering attraction between him and Pakhi leads to a tender and deep love, he is forced to choose between her and his past. Making his choice, Varun disappears. Pakhi struggles to move on with her life, determined to forget him and their relationship. Until one day, when he returns under the most extraordinary circumstances. Inspired from O. Henry's "The Last Leaf", Lootera is the uplifting story of two lovers. Of heartbreak, betrayal... and ultimate redemption.

You need to be a little careful.
The law will be
enforced any day now...
l am not selling my property,
Majumdar
Then form a Trust.
Even that takes time.
All the other landlords are doing it.
Pakhi...
Pakhi...
Pakhi...
Where were you lost?
How long have you been up?
l have been up for ten minutes,
but you were staring into space,
moving the fan like a statue.
How are you feeling now?
l am feeling fine, thank you.
Did it hurt?
Did l ever tell you
the Bheel Raja story?
No
A long time ago, there lived the...
mighty Raja of the Bheel tribe.
Very powerful.
No one could ever harm him.
Everyone was afraid of him.
The English made many
attempts on his life.
They cut him with swords,
they slit him with a thousand arrows,
but he just wouldn't die.
Then they heard that the Raja...
confined his 'life' in a parrot.
But there were a thousand
parrots in the forest.
Which one would it be?
Then they sent a spy.
A beautiful one.
The Raja fell in love with her.
Married her.
One fine day she found 'the' parrot.
She got hold of it and...
Then?
Then he died.
Pakhi, you are my that parrot.
lf anything happens to you...
You know,
finally Manikpur has electricity.
l see. And how long
is it going to stay?
What?
Stick to the left side.
Slowly.
We don't want to have an accident.
lf we get into an accident
then you were driving.
lf not then l was driving.
Watch out!
Watch out.
Pakhi.
You will get me fired.
Watch out
Watch out
That motor...
What are you doing?
Shh...
Doctor Uncle
Pakhi, you can go home.
He's alright. He'll be okay.
Ok
Move.
Why?
You almost killed
the poor motorcyclist.
You don't know how to drive.
Me?
Then who? Me?
Come.
''The springs came and went.''
''But l didn't experience
a single one.''
''My heart was drenched this time.''
''l wonder what you did?''
What's wrong?
The filament got damaged.
Filament?
The thing that lights up.
lsn't that electricity?
The electricity lights the filament,
the filament lights up the bulb.
Oh, yes. l knew that.
So whatever it is,
lnstall it everywhere.
And give the bills to Majumdar.
You aren't being serious.
lf the Zamindari
Abolishment Act is passed..
..you will be left with nothing.
The Act won't be passed, Majumdar.
lt will.
There aren't any landlords
in government who will support you.
Why do our fathers keep arguing?
My father feels that Zamindar
uncle doesn't understand him
and Zamindar uncle feels
that my father keeps yakking.
l see. Yakking?
Yes?
My name is Varun Srivastava
Where have you come from?
You stay here.
Babu, someone has come from Delhi.
From where?
Some 'English' place.
He is an archeologist.
Wants to excavate our temple site
He thinks there is an ancient
civilization buried underneath.
So?
He's coming home for dinner tonight
Ask him yourself.
Varun Shrivastava.
Yes?
Don't look back
The driver who drove into you,
his name is Babu Singh.
Ok.
And what is your name?
Don't try to be smart,
because you are not.
Ok.
Which one are you?
Mr. Srivastava
Yes?
You are very punctual
This is my daughter, Pakhi
And Pakhi, he is that
gentleman l told you about.
Hello.
Hello.
She wants to be a writer
She's not bad.
She has written her
name on all my books.
Baba, l am good.
l am sure
So, Archaeologists.
l always thought they were old men.
Busy amidst the cobwebs
of archaic buildings.
l guess that's why the
name starts with 'Archaic'
Of course.
Where are you staying?
At the Circuit House.
Nearby the temple.
What happened to your head?
My motorcycle had
an accident with a car.
