a proper role lately

Proper roles, acting, actor!

Sir

Who are you?

I'm Sanat

You the one who's got a high

second class in pure physics?

Someone said so.

Yes, Khuki did

Yes. We do get to meet

You've gone so sickly and

dark, auntie

What do you plan to do now?

I'm looking for a scholarship

to do a doctoral research

Monkey!

For a D.S. C?

- D. Phil's are all too common

Swine!

What is your thesis about?

- The Reynold Number...

of the Supersonic Vibration of

the Lower Gangetic Plain

Ape!

- Yes

Not you, it's about Shankar.

I was comparing the two

He's done nothing all his life

Come son, have a bite to eat

So you're immersed in studies?

No other way out in life

What a lovely place

I won't be able to do any sort of work.

- Go and serve this tea to Sanat

Oh mother! Sanat has come?

What the -

What're you staring at?

Hold this! I'm late

How come you sit

indoors all evening

Bye

You've come so I'll

go late for tuition

Let's go out for a walk.

What happened?

Let's go

Where's the one inside?

Get out!

Are you all right!

- Yes

You know this is the guru

I was telling you about

And when was that?

Bring home all the vagabonds

Can't feed oneself

Beginning's a bit troublesome

What a lovely voice! You'd be

spellbound if you heard it

If you bring such a nuisance

home again...

Just wait. I'm coming

Quick, bring some money

Ma, we're going out. I'll do

the tuition on the way back

It's hard to get the

scholarship

Just a few month more

And then

And then just get a job

And with your earning's I'll

You're free to tear

down the distance

Your genius is so large

That picture you've seen in my room...

- Those two kids?

Me and Brother

You know Sanat, we once went

walking on the hills there

Waking up while it's still dark

to see the sunrise from a peak

What suffering!

But when the sun came out...

I just can't explain to you...

As kids, brother'd tease me.

She wants to catch the moon!

He still does

Neeta, you're just not

cut out for this

So much to suffer -

Well then make glass case

and inside it,

keep me like a wax doll

I'll be late for tuition. Bye

No need to panic,

just a bone fracture

Neetu, come out

An injury in old age,

it'll be hard to cure

Now she'll have to run

the whole household

Neeta! What brings you here?

Weren't you sitting for

M. A this year?

I couldn't go on studying.

I work now. Bye

You'd better spin a new yarn

on your dues

Didn't tell you yesterday...

You'll get it as soon as I do?

That's a stale one

D'you take us to be

your community father...

and feel free to rest on us?

Why not get a job.

Get settled in life

You'll never understand

something called an ideal
