Manjhi: The Mountain Man Page #3

Synopsis: Dashrath Manjhi was a poor man from the lowest of the low castes, living in a remote village cut off from the world by a rocky mountain range. Life for him was a daily struggle for survival. He loved his wife, Phaguniya, beyond belief. One day, while climbing the mountain to bring him food, his wife slipped, fell and died. Overwhelmed by grief, Dashrath decided to carve out a path through the mountain, so that no one else would suffer his fate. For 22 years, all by himself, with just a hammer and a chisel, he hammered away at the rocks, till the path was carved out from the mountain.

What does this wastrel do?

You bloody pig thief,

You steal pigs from villages & sell

them to the butcher in the city

and you dare to call

my son a wastrel!

You drunkard! Don't make me lose

my head or I'll thrash you.

What's the problem?

- Hold your tongue

They gave 100 rupees for her.

If you have any guts,

pay up 200 and take her.

Forget it baba, I don't want her.

What does he think of himself?

I spit on him...

God knows who you got

me married to as a child?

Let's go.

That's your wife. ..

Phaguniya...

This is Phaguniya?

This is my wife?

L-low is it possible'?

She is mine...

You dare marry her to anybody else.

Just now you said

you don't want her.

When did I say that?

Where did I say that?

Must have said in as a child.

Hey Phaguniya...

You understand, don't you?

You come with me.

Kalua... Bilua

come here quick.

Get lost or your corpses

will leave this house.

You watch!

I will carry her away.

You dare marry her to anyone else!

A fair is not meant to be

enjoyed with one's father!

Come with me, we'll have some fun

I thought you were going to

take me away.

Working on it

I'll throw money on your

father's face and take you away.

Phaguniya... Phaguniya.
