Har Har Mahadev (2022) Movie Script

'I am Sahyadri.'
'Today, I am going to tell you a story.'
'His story.'
'He was a saviour.'
'He rekindled humanity in them.'
'He brought back the honour
to our language.'
'He guarded the Hindu religion
in every home.'
'This is the story of a Man
before he became God.'
'This is the story of my Shivray'
'before he became the Chhatrapati!'
'I'm about to reveal the secret that
lays hidden in my peaks and valleys'
'I am Sahyadri.'
'I am going to tell you
the story of my Shivba.'
'For three hundred and fifty years
an evil spell had befallen.'
'Maharashtra was silent even as it
suffered the brutality of the Adilshah.'
'Why?'
'Because the Marathas though born brave'
'they were forever divided.'
'To keep their rebellion at bay'
'the vicious Adilshah made sure that
the Twelve Deshmukhs of the Twelve Mavals'
'were always fighting each other.'
'The Jedhes of Kaari'
'and the Bandals of Hirdas-Maval
were arch rivals for generations.'
'Mindless brawls over caste supremacy'
'stained the black soil of
Maharashtra red with their blood.'
'And when a man becomes mad
with blood-lust,'
'the consequences are faced'
'by women.'
Not this way.
Take that route.
Through the forest.
Go through the forest?
And fall prey to the wild animals?
You can fight the animals.
But this village is haunted.
There lives an evil ghoul here.
Yes.
When it sees a bride in
her wedding dress it goes mad.
Let's go... get out of our way.
What a hindrance to my
daughter's wedding procession.
Come.
Dont worry little one.
Come... come... come
We'll get done with this quickly.
No need to worry.
The Patil will give gifts
and blessings to the new bride
and send her back with you.
Come inside.
Come on now.
This wretch raped & killed
my newly-wed daughter.
Listen to me.
The wrath of the famine;
the force of the flood
and the mood of the Patils.
Are all unpredictable.
Consider it your destiny and let it go.
My Lord but my daughter...
Under this Adilshahi rule
Rape is not a Crime!
So, there will certainly be no punishment.
But I am here to help you.
Hey Patil,
Compensate him for his loss.
Yes.
I have it right here with me.
Give it to him.
Give it.
Take... take it.
I'm not a bad person.
But a thirsty person needs water.
It is just that.
Take it.
All of you morons gathered here...
Go on... go back home.
You bloody idiot.
Get a grip on your lust.
Spare the little girls at least.
Please...
just this one time...
Let it go...
Get lost.
- Lichu, let's have lunch.
- Yes, let's go.
So, Deshmukh...
Come...
Come to my fort, join me for lunch.
What is it?
That Shivaji won't let us eat in peace.
What do you mean?
Both of us have received
threats from that Shivaji.
You know what he wrote?
Be a part of Swarajya.
Or else die!
How can I save you now?
Huh?
In the Twelve Mavals
only you have the man
who can stop that Shivaje Raje.
We want Baji Prabhu Deshpande.
Then you must surely come to my fort.
The bulls in the forest have gone wild.
Baji has gone to break their horns.
Come.
"While the fire rages,"
"While all hell broke loose."
"Har Har Mahadev,"
"The war cry echoes."
"Steadfast and determined,"
"He stands in the battlefield,"
"He slaughters the enemy,"
"Without mercy."
"He is Baji..."
"Valiant He is Baji"
"He is fire He is Baji."
"Har Har.. Har Har"
"Har Har Mahadev"
"Har Har...."
"Har Har Har Mahadev"
"Har Har Mahadev"
You just had a child yesterday,
didnt you?
- What are you doing here?
- I have taken a vow.
Till I kill at least one of the Jedhes,
I won't see my child's face.
You dimwit!
Get the hell out.
And take Gopya's goats with you.
I'll be right back.
Stop.
Let me go... Let me go.
Why?
So that you can steal
the Bandal's goats?
Stop Deshpande.
Stop.
Let him go.
Welcome Kanhoji Jedhe.
Watch your nephew die.
Stop Deshpande.
Let him go or else I'll kill him.
Go ahead.
Do you know
who slaughtered your entire family
outside the temple of Goddess Vinzai?
He is the only person in the world
who knows the secret.
If I kill him...
You will never know
the name of the killer.
Dada...
What are you thinking Deshpande?
Sure your father got killed
but it is your own brothers betrayal
that gives you sleepless
nights doesnt it?
Will you tell me now?
Or should I just slit your throat?
Yes, I will tell you.
The one you serve night and day,
your Lord,
Bandal-Deshmukh.
You idiots.
I've been looking for you for so long.
What are you doing here, Mahadba?
Hey Gamchya...
My father loves crab curry.
You get the good crabs of
the new moon night, only in this place.
Count them.
Tell me Mahadya.
Why have you shaved your head?
Don't I look just like...
my father?
Perfect.
How about growing a moustache?
Tani...
Don't mock me.
Stop it you two.
You shouldn't come here
without any elders.
They say this village border is haunted
Let's go back right now.
Hey.
The one whose mere mention
makes the Twelve Mavals tremble,
I am the eldest son of
that Baji Prabhu Deshpande.
My name is,
Mahadji Prabhu Deshpande.
Who can dare touch me?
Yes
The one whose mere mention
makes the Twelve Mavals tremble,
I am the future daughter in law
of that Baji Prabhu Deshpande
My name is,
Tani Pradhan Bandal
Who can dare touch me?
Tani...
I don't want to marry you.
I will wait till you grow a moustache
Dear husband!
Let's go.
Hey...
Dear husband
If your mother sees your
shaved head, you've had it.
Dear husband, listen to me.
Should I show them?
Tani...
Wait till I tell your mother.
Tani, stop.
Why is she giggling?
When a woman's husband comes back
from war; victorious and unhurt....
A wife is obviously happy.
So, Deshpande Bai
Why aren't you happy?
Because you have come unhurt...
not victorious!
The one whose mere mention
makes the Twelve Mavals tremble,
In that Baji Prabhu Deshpande's Hirdas-Maval
lives a brute who continues to
rape young girls.
Is this Baji Prabhu Deshpande's victory?
Or defeat?
I heard about it.
Times are bad for women and girls,
Deshpande Bai.
They must stay at home.
Where the Goddess & her temple isnt safe,
How will a woman in her home be safe?
What if someone abducts me
from our home right in front of you?
Will you say the same?
Times are bad Deshpande Bai
Times are bad!
That Shivaji Raje
punished the Patil of Ranja
by chopping off all four limbs.
And here?
You men kill each other
over goats and sheep...
However, when someone rapes a girl?
All of Maval falls silent?
Strange is the justice of your Maval.
Wake up Deshpande.
Before this dand-patta rusts away
wake up.
Hey Bajya.
Tell your men
they must bow in respect
when they see me.
Get lost.
I'm going out.
Tani
- Catch me.
- Don't run.
- You little devil.
- You'll rip my dhoti off.
- Dhondiba...
- Yeah?
Teach him how to hold a sword.
He keeps messing in
the kitchen all the time.
Forget it.
This generation is useless.
My youngest, Sada.
Hey...
I would have rather had
a strong-willed daughter instead.
What are you gawking at?
So, Bajiba?
How many Jedhes did you butcher?
They stole Gopya's goats.
Because Gopya burnt their farm.
But how does it matter.
The Bandals got an excuse
to butcher the Jedhes.
That's it.
Baji Prabhu Deshpande.
I'm Anaji Mhaskar's
eldest son, Dhanaji.
Please take me in your platoon.
Anaji Mhaskar.
Remember him Dhondiba?
Of course.
Once, that Anaji
stole Jedhe's cow.
So...
Those crazy Jedhes
chopped off his right leg.
It was quite a mess that day.
He wants to join my platoon
Shave of his moustache
and he would look like a sissy.
The Lord has sent a message for you.
He has called you to the fort.
He said come immediately.
He said come instantly.
He said come right away.
He said come as fast as you can.
He said come just now.
Go Phulaji Go...
Hit the target.
Hey...
Who is he?
You've asked this now.
Don't you ever ask again.
He is Baji's elder brother.
Phulaji.
It was years ago.
Baji, Phulaji and their brother Anaji
along with their father and grandfather
had been to the temple of Goddess Vinzai.
But some monsters
were waiting in ambush for them.
Anaji
If I kill you in front of the Goddess
I'll go straight to hell.
So come outside.
Krushnaji Deshpande knew
it was impossible for everyone
to leave the temple alive.
That is why
he took an important decision.
Baji...
remember what I am telling you.
Keep our fields well tilled.
Keep our women happy.
From now on Hirdas-Maval
is your responsibility.
And Phulaji
from now on Baji
is your responsibility.
I don't know who ordered
to have us killed.
Just let my children go.
Baji, Phulaji run.
Phulaji and Baji were
very fond of each other.
But at that crucial moment
Phulaji lost his courage.
And he did
what Baji could've never imagined.
Dada...
You morons...
Don't you dare touch the kid.
Bandal-Deshmukh saved Baji.
But the betrayal by his own brother
hurts Baji deeply even to this day.
It has been only a few years
since Phulaji has come back.
Where was he all these years?
He was screwing himself.
Mind your own business, will you?
Hey Bajiba...
Come.
How many Jedhes did you butcher?
One of our men, Shipru Bandal
died without seeing
the face of his new born.
What for?
For these goats and sheep?
When two mighty bulls fight each other
the grass below gets
trampled upon, Baji.
Enough of these mindless brawls.
Make peace with the Jedhes.
What did you say?
Make peace?
Make peace with the Jedhes?
I have seen the Jedhes dance
over my father's dead body.
You would've never said such a thing
if you were a Bandal by birth.
What do you know of revenge?
I am doing what no son in the world
must have ever done.
I am embracing the man
who killed my father.
Why?
Tell me Deshmukh
Why?
Baji...
It was a dispute over
the waters of Neera-Velvandhi
Those were crazy times.
But you take your revenge
Kill me.
I am letting go of my revenge.
You let go of yours.
End this mindless spiral
of revenge between the Jedhes & Bandals.
Baji...
To tell you the truth
You too were supposed
to be killed that day.
I dont know why...
I saw your face...
and my heart melted.
Forgive me my son.
Forgive me.
Will you leave this old man and go?
I have promised my dying father that
I will always protect our Hirdas-Maval.
But there is someone who is trying
to destroy our Hirdas Maval.
The younger son
of Jahagridar Shahaji Raje Bhosale
Shivaji Raje Bhosale.
And his new way of governance
Swarajya!
Yes.
Under the name of that Swarajya
he is conquering
one Maval after the other.
He has already won over three Mavals
and now he is coming for ours.
The one whose mere mention
makes the Twelve Mavals tremble...
that Baji Prabhu Deshpande has
anything to say at all?
Everyone is curious to know.
By meddling in the politics of Maval,
that Shivaji Raje
has directly challenged the
great Baji Prabhu Deshpande himself.
I...
Stop provoking my tiger, will you?
Where were you when
the Jedhes were attacking us?
Don't try to drag us into your mess.
When the neighbour's house is burning
we cannot watch quietly.
There is only one way to
protect the Hirdas-Maval
that my dying father left in my care.
I will take my best Bandal men
and attack that Shivaji raje right away.
- Hmm...
- Yes.
Baji...
didn't you just tell me
you don't want meaningless brawls.
And suddenly youre itching
to get into a new one?
These are not disputes
over goats and sheep, my lord.
This is a fight for our existence.
That is why this Baji Prabhu
Deshpande is standing
between that Shivaji
Raje and his Swarajya.
Tell me something Baji,
why do you hate
that Shivaji Raja so much?
That Shivaji has rebelled
against his own father.
And he who betrays his own family
cannot be loyal to anyone!
Look at this dand-patta.
It can cut every living thing
in this world.
Even the rocks of our land
have life in them.
Give me something that can
cut someones ego.
There you are.
That you would have such a demand
I just knew it!
But for that you need to wait,
Shivba.
Tavji,
I need strong shields.
And swords as well.
And make it quick.
I dont produce in bulk.
My work is not mere labour.
I am an artist.
I am the chief of the army
of Hirdas-Mavals Bandal Deshmukh.
My name is
Baji Prabhu Deshpande.
Your name rings a bell.
Scratch your knees.
You might remember.
Tell me.
What brings you here today?
I want solid weapons.
I want to kill a rebel.
What is the name of this rebel?
Shivaji Shahaji Bhosale.
Aye Baji.
You once saved my life.
I will save your life today.
Shivaji raje is fire.
Do not play with this fire,
youll be burnt to ashes.
I have doused many such fires
to protect my Hirdas-Maval.
Join me.
Well fight together.
I am about to crush a rebel.
I dont have time for mere rebels.
I want to destroy the Sultans throne.
- Be careful.
- Hey.
Stop it!
I have made these weapons
to kill that evil Sultan.
I dont want our own people to
spill each others blood.
I will quash his arrogance today.
I have friends too.
Everyone has friends.
A mans character is not
defined by the friends he keeps.
It is defined by the enemies he makes.
Baji Prabhu Deshpande,
You have wasted half your life,
And you havent even
made a worthwhile enemy.
Not all fires burn down houses, Baji.
Look within yourself Baji.
Some fires burn everything they touch.
And some fires give light!
Four days.
Your weapons will be ready.
Hey Baji
Baji
Baji
Hey
Baji enough.
Listen to me Baji.
He has Fazal Khans support.
If you hurt him, Bijapur will raze our
Hirdas-Maval to the ground.
Have you forgotten
your promise to your dying father?
O righteous Deshmukh,
this time what price have you put
on the honour of a woman?
How dare you scoundrel?
You were not at your fort.
That is why I have come here.
I am Abaji Vishwanath.
I have a message from
Shivaji Raje for you.
He has invited you to join the Swarajya.
What exactly am I expected to do?
Whenever our king beckons,
you must fight for Swarajya
with your best warriors.
You were the landlord,
but from now on you lose all rights.
You have served the Adilshahi long enough.
Now you will answer to
Swarajya.
You wont collect the tax anymore.
We will collect the tax from the peasants.
For Swarajya.
And most importantly.
You will use your head
only to wear your turban.
All the decision making
will be done in
Swarajya!
Correct.
Yeah.
And what if I say No?
Anyone in Maval who refused to obey
were brought to their knees.
Why refuse and put,
unnecessary strain on your old knees.
Our Kings friendship
is as precious as gold.
And our Kings decision,
is as solid as iron.
The one whos mere mention
makes the Twelve Mavals tremble,
that Baji Prabhu Deshpande's opinion,
our Shivaji Raje is most corious to know.
Tell your Shivaji Raje,
if he is so powerful,
why wait for tomorrow.
Fight me today.
This Baji Prabhu Deshpande
will be waiting for him.
Ill surely tell him so.
'In his quest to keep past promises,
Baji was ignoring'
'his responsibilities
towards future generations.'
'Because of such attitude
Maval continued to perish;'
'Adilshah and Siddi took disadvantage
of this helplessness.'
'Maratha women & girls would
be abducted in broad daylight'
'and auctioned off
in this market in Shirwal.'
'They would be shipped off to
foreign lands to work as prostitutes.'
Why will anyone buy this old hag?
To sing a lullaby?
Throw her away.
Mother
What is our fault?
That we were born as women.
I regret that I gave birth to you
in such a terrible time.
My dear,
wherever you may be,
- please forgive your mother.
- Mother...
Mother
There is no one who can
save us from these monsters.
"The enemy is here
its moment of truth"
"Taking a leap of faith"
"Steadfast like a sword"
"Bravo Shiva"
"Renounce the caste and embrace victory"
"This is the principle of life"
"That is the ultimate truth"
"Bravo Shivaji"
"You slaughter the abusers"
"You are more than God to us"
"You slaughter the abusers"
"You are more than God to us"
"Your style, your swagger"
"Youre tall as the skies to us"
"The enemy trembles at
the mention of your name"
"Bravo Shiva"
"In forts and jungles"
"In the hearts of the people"
"Is the pride of their motherland"
"Bravo Shiva"
"Bravo Shiva"
"Bravo Shiva"
"Arrows, bows and sword"
"Spears, daggers strike terror"
"The shields will defend
all at once"
"The shields will defend
all at once"
"You slaughter the abuser"
"You are more than God to us"
"Bravo Shiva"
"Bravo Shiva"
No more crying.
Dont ever be afraid from now on.
I am here for you.
Laari
Come.
Laari
Mother...
Mother...
Mother...
Laari
Let this be a final warning to you.
Every single woman
of this land is my mother.
And if you touch my mother,
it means youre challenging
my Bhavani sword.
Bring him here.
I am going to say this only once.
Slavery is a crime in my Swarajya.
If you ever help Siddi and Adilshah
to fight against me,
I will rip you apart.
I dont understand.
I dont know your language (Marathi).
Then learn how to speak Marathi.
My land,
My rule,
My language!!!
What is the news from Hirdas-Maval?
Bandals didnt agree.
Bandals maybe obstinate
but they are spirited.
They are brave.
They are gallant in the battlefield.
And what is Deshpande upto?
He is eager to see you.
Baji Prabhu Deshpande
is a valiant warrior.
To honour his wish is my wish.
And my wish is the God's will!
Lets go.
Why dont you eat?
Cant you be careful?
Of course, I am.
Why are you so angry?
Hey.
Talk to me properly.
Or I will give you one tight slap.
How dare you even
think of hitting a woman?
And that too your own mother?
Beg for her forgiveness.
Right now.
- Do it or Ill slap you.
- Hit me hit me!
I don't have clout at the Bijapur court.
Wait.
I will make this easy for you.
Mahadji.
Mahadji
Enough.
Enough.
Shivaji Raje has been
spotted near Shirval.
Tauji will deliver the weapons by evening.
Shall we leave tomorrow?
Bajiba?
Shall we leave tomorrow?
Not tomorrow.
Today.
Wheres Dhanaji?
I havent seen him since morning.
Dhondiba
Here comes, Anaji Mhaskar.
We were just talking about your son.
Where the hell is he?
Here, Dhanaji has come with me.
Please train him under Baji.
Are you drunk, Anaji?
He
He is not Dhanaji.
Dhondiba
Stop smoking and getting high.
This is my Dhanaji.
Then who the hell is that boy who
who has been with us all these days?
Boom.
Fire...
Run... Fire...
Fire...
Run... go...go..go...
Everybody run...
What are you looking at... fire... run...
Har Har...
Har Har Har Mahadev!
Har Har...
Har Har Har Mahadev!
Har Har...
Har Har Har Mahadev!
Scoundrel
Traitor
Phulaji...
Shivaji!
Had I recognised you last time,
I would have killed you right there.
Your words are quite sharp.
But what about your sword?
Give me the Baji of Maval.
I will give Maval it's freedom.
Why do you need this Baji?
Only to betray him?
I betray my enemies.
Not my friends.
Be my friend Baji.
Hey... Hey!
Baji, Swarajya needs
an iron-fist like yours.
I have nothing to do with your Swarajya.
I am fine.
As long as my Bandals are fine.
I'm a Bandal...
I'm a Maratha...
I'm a Brahmin...
I'm a Jedhe...
Your caste-politics
has ruined Maharashtra.
Open your eyes, Deshpande.
He, who has the peoples blessings...
Hes a true Maratha.
He, who has renounced castes...
Hes a true Maratha.
He, who worships the saffron flag...
Hes a true Maratha.
He, who has power in his arms
and devotion in his heart,
Hes a true Maratha.
This Shivaji is a Maratha.
This Baji is also a Maratha.
All of us have a single identity...
a singular existence.
One motto and one power...
Maratha!
Baji...
As a mark of respect for your courage,
I'll let the Bandals keep their fiefdom.
But remember...
your lands,
your people,
your cattle,
belong to Swarajya.
And Swarajya
belongs to the people.
Let the Deshmukh's
sons inherit his legacy.
Bandal Deshmukh was a brave warrior.
Give him the most respectable funeral.
Dhanaji is my spy.
But he wants to join you now.
Baji...
now that you have
become my closest friend,
as a symbol of our friendship,
I would like to gift you
something very special!
Come...
Let me go.
Where are you taking me?
How dare you bring me here by force?
Don't you know who I am?
Huh?
You'll regret this
moment for the rest of...
Shut up, you pig.
Lower your voice.
You're standing in front of
Shivaji Raje Bhosale.
There are tons of
complaints against you.
So what?
Are you holding a trial against me?
Right here?
And you are going to judge me?
This land is my mother.
And what I serve is justice.
But what is my crime?
You've raped fifty-three girls.
Fifteen of them were underage.
Not fifty-three.
Sixty.
Sixty.
Do what you want about it.
Rape is not a crime.
It is a crime!
Rape is a crime in Swarajya!
From today
it is a law in Swarajya!
I...
Shivaji Shahaji Bhosale
with Goddess Bhavani as my witness
remembering my oath of Lord Raireshwar,
with the power vested in me
by the people,
by the law of Swarajya, since
the charge of rape has been proven
I hereby sentence you to death.
Baji Prabhu Deshpande,
he is the first criminal
of your free state of Maval.
I've given you the law.
Now you give people the justice.
Hey...
Put me down.
Put me down...
why have you tied me like this?
Hey..
Untie me...
Hey...
Help me...
Help...
Shivaji roasted our dear friend
Bhamta Patil to death.
He has captured the
strategic Javli and now
he has a grip on all of Twelve Maval.
Lost territories can
be won back Fazal Khan.
But what Shivaji has been doing
is much more dangerous.
If you wish to rule over a civilization,
first suppress the women that live there.
Havent you learnt anything
from Alladin Khilji?
This land
where women are treated like Goddesses.
By plundering their temples
and raping their women
have we been winning half the battles.
In this mighty Bijapuri kingdom
rape is our most powerful weapon to rule.
And that inconsequential Shivaji
thinks he can stop us?
And that too by declaring
rape as a crime?
'Considered to be the most
powerful warrior in the world.'
'This rogue was addicted to
crushing at least one skull every day.'
'That monster pledged to kill Shivba.'
'That barbarian was'
'the wazir of Bijapur'
'a hater of Hindus'
'Afzal Khan Bhatari'
'On his campaign'
'he desecrated numerous temples like
Pandharpur and Tulzapur.'
'He massacred my innocent people.'
There is no God in this statue
who will save you.
This is nothing
but a mere stone.
Just a life-less stone.
You're wrong Afzal Khan Bhatari.
One day the Lion God Narsimha
will emerge from this stone
and he will tear you apart.
'That demon ripped the
holy robe off Goddess Tuljai...'
Enough Kanhoji.
Vahinisaheb, we must leave immediately.
Saibai's health is
deteriorating by the day.
Travelling may prove fatal for her.
You leave immediately.
Gather the brave-hearts of Maval
and assemble at Pratapgad.
Yes.
Kank, Shilimkar, Dhumal,
Bandal send messages to everyone.
But why the Bandals?
Yes definitely, Bandals too.
And their lion-hearted
warrior Baji Prabhu Deshpande!
Sure
Where is Shivba now?
We have received a message.
He is on his way here.
Here?
Yes.
Sai, Shivba is coming here.
Listen to me.
If he sees how ill you are,
he'll want to stay by your side.
He might be a brave man,
but his heart is gentle.
He is about to fight
the mighty Afzal Khan.
I don't know how you will do this
but remember...
You must see to it that
Shivba leaves for his
mission immediately.
Although it's the men who go to war;
it's the women who risk everything.
Eight
Nine
And
Ten
Well done.
Manya,
show him.
Right leg forward, Mahadji.
Why don't you pay attention?
This idiot should know
I'm still learning.
How dare you speak so rudely?
He is my man.
Not your servant.
Even I dont talk to him like this.
Why? Are you scared of him as well?
'A father may do without a son's love.'
'But seeing disrespect
in your own son's eyes...'
'Nothing can be more
painful for a father.'
Greetings, Deshpande.
I bring a message for you from Rajgad.
We have a mission.
What mission?
A courageous warrior
first accepts the mission.
Then asks, "What mission?".
Why me?
That is what I am wondering too.
Why you?
End the rivalry between
the Jedhes and Bandals.
Only then will I come.
The course of fate
can change Deshpande.
But this Jedhe-Bandal
rivalry is unchangeable.
In any case,
fighting the mighty Afzal Khan
is way out of your league.
Are you going to fight
Afzal Khan Bhatari?
Hmm.
Wait outside.
I'm coming.
Lunch is ready.
Have lunch and then leave.
No, daughter.
No time for lunches.
Deshpande...
The Jedhe-Bandal rivalry
ends right here, right now.
Henceforth,
not a single Jedhe sword will
ever taste the blood of a Baandal.
I'll be waiting outside.
'For everyone this was a mission.'
'But for Deshpande,
this was an opportunity.'
'To win back his sons respect for him.'
'A father's impassioned quest'
'was about to create history.'
'Little did Baji know it then.'
What is this mission all about?
Where are you going?
I don't know where I am going.
But I know why I'm going.
And this time Deshpande Bai,
I will come back Victorious.
Promise me you'll
come back unhurt as well.
Of course; who else will fix that roof?
I'll be back.
You're here...
See the miracle of Goddess Jagdamba.
The mere thought of seeing you and
I am back on my feet.
I'm fine.
Trust me.
- Sai, you...
- No
This is no time to relax.
You...
You must leave immediately.
You must destroy that monster Afzal Khan.
Swarajya is a dream
that both of us saw together.
If you want it to come true,
you must leave now.
Sai...
I'm here...
I'll be right here.
Waiting for you.
It is time.
Hmm?
You must leave.
For what you did today;
this land and it's Swarajya will
forever be grateful to you my dear.
Shivba
we must charge on to Wai
and crush Afzal Khan there.
No, Uncle.
Afzal Khan used to
be the Commander of Wai.
He knows every nook and corner
of the territory.
But he is destroying our temples
and harassing the people.
He calls himself kufr-shikan.
Meaning the one who breaks Holy idols...
Your Majesty
There's news from Rajgad.
What is the matter?
News from Rajgad means...
Her Majesty...
Saibai is no more.
This shouldn't have happened just when
we're about to clash against Afzal Khan.
Afzal Khan...
we must lure him into
the jungles of Javli.
But why will he change his route?
I'll make him change his route.
Deshpande...
Your petty local tricks wont work here.
Abaji...
Give me some masons.
I'll give you the best workers.
Not the best.
Give me the worst of the workers.
'Feeding Afzal Khans
hatred for Hinduism,'
'the Marathas built fake temples.'
'Afzal Khan kept destroying them
and thus changed his route.'
'The roads to Jawli were narrowed down.'
'Khan had to leave behind
his elephants and cannons.'
'Shivba was going to meet him at the
foothill of Pratapgad to make a truce.'
'Alone.'
'Unarmed.'
'Baji was distressed by this plan.'
You said I am a friend to you.
And a friend should
always speak the truth.
Go on, I'm listening.
I have seen Afzal Khan Bhatari
at close quarters.
If death had a face,
It would resemble Afzal Khan Bhatari.
If you enter that shamiana tomorrow,
he'll crush you like an ant.
- If revenge is all you want-
- What revenge?
Everyone knows.
He killed your elder brother,
Sambhajiraje.
And for that
we'll certainly make him pay
- but...
- But what?
I'm here with three hundred fine
Bandal warriors from my Hirdas-Maval.
But to sacrifice so many brave men
for the personal revenge of one man is...
Take your three hundred Fine Bandal
warriors and get out of here, Baji!
Go back to where you came from.
Stay in that tiny puddle and die there!
That is where you belong!
I haven't come so far to go back.
You won our province;
we must fight for you.
That is our duty.
Duty?
Duty?
If you're standing by me
just because I won your province...
then my judgement of
you was wrong, Baji Prabhu.
And you're not a dumb mule
that blindly follows his master.
Swarajya doesn't stand
on the hollow walls of duty.
It requires the strong
pillars of loyalty.
I...
Shivaji Shahaji Bhosale
will wait for the day
when Baji Prabhu Deshpande
will firmly hold the dand-Patta
in his hand not because it is his duty.
But out of loyalty.
Shivba...
- Maasaheb...
- Aausaheb.
May you live a long life.
May victory be yours.
What do you think Baji?
Is Shivba fit to be a king?
He speaks well.
Is he even worthy of being
the Chhatrapati of this Swarajya;
I shall know tomorrow.
- I must leave.
- Yes.
I don't know how much it will help you.
But Afzal Khan is left-handed.
Always keep this man close to you, Shivba.
He isnt scared to speak the truth.
Just like Lord Rama
had Hanuman by his side.
Shivba should always have Baji.
We'll destroy the Shamiana and then
capture Pratapgad by tonight...
Hot mutton dinner followed
by the hot Maratha women.
No...
Your king is on a suicide mission.
All of you stay here in the jungle of Paar
and stop the Khan's army from advancing.
And you?
I'll be right back.
Welcome Shivaji... welcome.
Raje...
I killed your brother Sambhaji
with these very hands.
Now Shivaji too will die.
And with him dies Swarajya!!!
Raje...
"Jagdamba's blessing
protecting him"
"This end is a
new beginning"
"Determined, he charges,"
"Shiv Narasimha.."
"The enemy,over bearing..."
"The danger, life threatening"
"He is poised to slay..."
"Shiv Narasimha.."
"Cowards plot deviously..."
"But he is the face of death for them..."
"Cowards plot deviously..."
"But he is the face of death for them..."
"To brave the storm,"
"He has vowed"
"Shiv Narasimha.."
"Jagdamba's blessing
protecting him"
"This end is a
new beginning"
"Determined, he charges,"
"Shiv Narsimha"
'One day the Lion God Narsimha
will emerge from this stone.'
'He will tear you apart.'
"Narsimha Shiva"
Khan has such a big army here; that
means his other forts are under-staffed.
I will meet you at Panhala Fort,
you leave right away.
We have eighteen days,
to capture twenty-one forts.
Then we march on to Bijapur.
And this time
don't improvise the plan.
Hmm?
'The unexpected death
of the mighty Afzal Khan,'
'shook the entire Deccan to its core.'
'Shivba's veterans'
'Moropant Pingle'
'Kanhoji Jedhe'
'Annoji Datto'
'and Netaji Palkar'
'captured twenty one
of Adilshah's forts'
'Afzal Khan's son Fazal Khan
with revenge in his heart'
'was about to leave with
Adilshah's army to destroy Shivba.'
'when all of a sudden, a huge
black army crossed their path.'
How dare you cross paths with
the Bijapur army, Siddi Jauhar?
I'm not here to cross your path.
I'm here to change your route.
Here... A Gift!
My father's ring...
You dug up his grave?
His grave was dug by Shivaji.
I merely dug a tunnel to it.
Siddi, you scoundrel.
He ripped apart your father's intestines.
Imagine how & where he'll tear you apart.
Siddi...
Badi Sahiba...
Afzal Khan fought Shivaji as Afzal Khan.
I will fight Shivaji as Shivaji.
From here.
Are you just shooting off your mouth
or do you have a concrete plan?
Fort of Panhala
That will be Shivaji's first step
in his ambitious campaign against Bijapur.
This Gudhi Padwa,
Shivaji will step into Panhala.
Let the rat enter the burrow.
I will trap him inside.
Listen to me carefully Badi Sahiba.
Shivaji's glorious story
started at Shivneri fort...
I shall end it at Panhala fort.
Panhala...
Yes Your Majesty.
Some of us are planning on going
back home for a few days
we'll be back in five days.
Home?
Yes, I have some domestic
matters to settle back home.
Domestic matters?
Yes.
Domestic matters.
Domestic matters?
May I ask you something?
Don't you miss your son?
Baji, Aurangzeb has just
become the Emperor in Delhi.
And he is eyeing our Maratha territory.
Before he attacks us
we must destroy the Adilshahi.
My son obeys my orders Baji.
Aurangzeb is yet to comply.
You please go ahead and
settle your domestic matters.
What is it?
What did the king say?
I am longing to meet my son Mahadji.
And our king...
How can he live without
his son for so long?
That's Abaji
He always brings in bad news.
Surely some shit has happened.
What is the news?
The Black King Siddi Jauhar is on his way
with an army of thirty-thousand.
Who is Siddi Jauhar?
Six hundred years ago Africans
were brought to Hindustan as slaves.
They are black in colour
and a tough people.
They have a small kingdom in Kurnul.
This Siddi was a slave
at the court of that king.
So, he was a slave of the slaves?
Yes.
Not an ordinary slave though.
He assassinated his own king
with a master plan.
A belief runs in the Siddi's tribe that
he who kills the king gets the crown.
But he also inherits a curse.
The new king also gets
killed in the same manner.
So Siddi Jauhar hatched a plan.
He poisoned...
not the king...
but the king's young son.
He gave the king two options.
If the king wanted
an antidote for his son,
he would have to himself
consume the poison.
To save his son, the king did exactly
what any father would do.
Thus, Siddi Jauhar became the king
and he averted the curse of the Siddis.
Why is he interested
in attacking Shivaji Raje?
Badi Sahiba has promised him.
That if he captures Shivaji Raje
Kurnul will get its
independence from Bijapur.
And every slave has but one dream...
Freedom!
How many provinces
did Siddi plunder on his way?
Not a single one.
It's shocking.
Why are you shocked?
Khan razed down every region he crossed
because he never wanted
to establish settlements over there.
He had but one goal.
To kill me.
But this Siddi...
is coming here with different designs.
His has a singular strategy.
Siege.
You must go to Rajgad.
I will block him here.
And what about...
your domestic matters?
The sword shouldnt
avoid using the shield.
I'll be here.
You leave.
Wherever my Mavlas stand,
this Shivaji will be by their side.
Where Shivaji stands for his Mawlas,
this Baji will be by his side.
We have such a big army with us,
why don't we go up Panhala
and capture Shivaji?
Chhote Khan...
If you want different results;
you must employ different means.
Otherwise Afzal Khan
wasnt any less a warrior.
Hello Jauhar.
Hello
Surve, Sawant...
Meet Rajapurs Gifford and
Henry Revington.
Namaste
It's a pleasure meeting you.
You speak Marathi very well.
It's called the Shivaji Effect.
Surve, Sawant...
- Yes...
- Have you received your rewards?
Yes we have.
You just give us the order
We will attack where you want.
I dont want you to attack.
I want you to wait.
Be ready as if the enemy is going to
attack today. Be alert.
Get going.
I haven't received the count
of the cannon balls for today.
Dhanaji...
or whatever that your real name is...
We've reached a hundred today.
The night shift workers
have already started breaking
the stone near Pusati bastion.
May I...
May I say something please?
Umm...
I mean...
I know
You must be angry with me.
I...
I broke your trust.
I havent even apologised to you.
I have a request.
I want you to forgive me.
I have a request too.
What?
I want to kick your ass.
Hmm
Go ahead.
Kick me.
Vent your anger.
Go on.
Bloody Joker
Come on.
Baji?
Look at this.
All my life I have only heard stories.
Afzal Khan,
Aurangzeb,
Mughals.
I used to wonder are
they for real or just stories?
Then one day Shivaji came like
a hurricane in my life and
And?
Now I feel even
I am a part of this story.
Youre not just a part of this story Baji.
You are the actual story...
which shall one day be narrated
in every house in Maharashtra.
'Three months went by.'
'Every one stuck on the fort
began to lose patience.'
Dont you understand?
We guard the towers
for long hours every day;
Dont we need to eat properly?
We dont know how
long well be stuck here.
The granaries are all but empty.
Leave him alone.
Baji
Our Shivaji raje is himself
going hungry everyday.
And these gluttons want feasts.
'Siddi Jauhars siege was tightening'
'around Panhala like
a python squeezes its prey.'
'Aurangzeb, English,
Adilshah, Portuguese'
'All of them were waiting
for Shivbas death.'
'But Shivba was waiting'
'for the rains.'
'Ashadh passed and then came
the month of Shravan.'
'Finally, it began to rain.'
'This was a signal.'
'As planned, Netaji Palkar
attacked the siege from outside.'
'And Shivba, Abaji, Baji
set off from Panhala'
'to break the deadly siege.'
'Netaji always brought down the
enemy flag after defeating the enemy.'
'But seeing Siddis flag intact...
Shivba realized'
'that Netaji had failed to defeat Siddi'
'And this was a trap laid out for them.'
'Thus Siddi had conquered
the relentless Sahyadri rains.'
'Now it was impossible for Shivba
to escape from this seige.'
Gautami come
Coming...
Come on.
Hurry up.
Give it to me.
Give.
I cant reach up there.
I had told him.
Move aside.
Let me handle this.
Forget about father.
I will take care of this house now.
Give it to me.
Yes.
And I will provide for this house now.
Sure.
Anybody home?
Who?
Who is it?
Anybody home?
May I come inside?
My husband is not home.
Which is why I have come here.
Now, since your husband is away
I must look after you.
All your needs
all your desires.
You never know whether
he is ever coming back or not
You must get used to it.
Isnt it?
Lichu, get out.
Leave right now.
Or else Ill pack you off to
meet your brother.
In after-life.
Get lost.
Hey
I meet him every day.
In my dreams.
He keeps whispering in my ears...
Revenge...
Seek revenge.
Take care.
Ill be back.
Lets go.
Bhauji...
Any news from Panhala?
Last that I heard, everything
was going to be fine after rains...
I hope Shivaji Raje is safe?
Of course.
Isnt our Baji standing by his side.
But who is standing by Bajis side?
Hey, Bajiba
Come here.
Here.
Baji, may I ask you something?
Hmm.
Youre with our Shivaji Raje
but sometimes youre not.
Why dont you trust him?
My own brother left me to die.
How can I ever trust anyone, Dhondiba?
Once Shivaji raje gets
out of here safely...
my job is done.
Wait...
The cannons need some time
to cool down.
Fine, well wait...
a while to capture Panhala.
Take him away; dress his wounds.
Raje
Youre hurt.
These long-distance cannons
Im sure they are a gift from
the British of Rajapur.
These British are not here just for trade.
Once we are free from here, I will
destroy them with their own cannons.
For these British cannons to cool down
and be ready to fire again,
It takes six hours.
We have only six hours.
- Thankfully there are only 2 British cannons.
- You scoundrels.
What did you think?
You will come here,
damage our cannons
and go back so easily?
Yes. That was the plan.
But we never thought
an idiot will cross our path.
Thats right.
So Abaji
Shall we go for it?
Yes.
Hmm
Hmm.
- Hmm
- Hmm
So Abaji
Tell me
Shivaji Raje will be so happy
to see this gift, wont he?
You know what
Why dont we trade him
in the Bijapur court?
Him?
Bijapur wont even give us scrap
in exchange of this idiot.
Come off it Ibrahim.
Youre right.
Ibrahim?
Youre a Muslim and
you still fight for Shivaji?
Just being circumcised doesnt
make you a Muslim, Fazal Khan.
If every Muslim reads
the Holy Quran with a pure heart,
then each one of them will
proudly stand by Shivaji Raje's side.
Come.
My God these are finished forever.
What the hell are you waiting for?
- Father, we cant do anything.
- Finish them.
Aim for Fazals ass.
Hes a useless ass himself.
What is this?
Run
Wait... I am with you.
Hey...
Run
Hey
- He is running away.
- Let him go.
Are you mad?
Come.
Wait.
Ibrahim?
Your Majesty
Ibrahim is no more.
Hand over Shivaji to me
and lets put an end to this matter.
I am here for my Dhanaji.
Or else I would have
shoved your teeth down your throat.
He isnt Dhanaji.
He is Ibrahim Mujahir.
From Dabhol.
With a widowed mother,
two brothers and three sisters.
It will take my men seven hours...
to reach your house in Shind villages,
Deshpande Wada.
Once there, my men
wont be fixing your leaky roof.
First, they will kill your son Mahadji
Then chop him to so many pieces that
Rest assured.
You are not betraying Shivaji.
You are protecting your own son.
Seven hours.
Seven...
hours.
Are you sure we can break this siege?
That is what I wish for.
And my wish is the Lord's will.
And when you are by my side,
why do I need to worry, Baji?
Baji...
I'm listening...
Speak up.
A father and a warrior are
at loggerheads.
And... the father is winning.
Right?
I dont know
why the others are with you.
I came on this campaign
with you because
I wanted to win back
the respect in my sons eyes.
This Swarajya
this peoples rule...
I don't have such big dreams.
I am an ordinary man.
I live for myself.
I live for my family.
I live for my Hirdas-Maval.
Close your eyes Baji.
Go ahead
close your eyes.
Bring Mahadji,
your son, in front of your eyes.
Close your eyes.
The world in which
your Mahadji will grow up
What kind of a world
do you see for him, Baji?
The way it is now?
Where there is mad violence?
People betting on
who kills how many men.
Arson, looting
Women living in constant fear?
And men being miserable
slaves to outsiders.
Is that the world you see?
Is that the world you see?
What do you see Baji?
Or do you imagine
a world that is beautiful.
Where our people have
the freedom to breathe.
Where children spend their time
counting the colours on butterflies.
Where heads bow down not in shame
but in respect, in front of our parents.
Where the goddess in the temple and
mothers and sisters all have a safe world.
Which I call Swarajya
and your dear Mahadji,
growing up in this Swarajya.
Do you imagine such a world?
Who is going to create
such a world, Baji?
Only you and I can create this world
with our sweat and blood.
And thats why sometimes
To become a good father,
one has to be a good warrior!
But if every warrior
keeps his own house safe.
Why do we need
this quest for Swarajya?
He who treats
the whole world as his home
The one whose mind is clear.
Hes truly the man
who is on the path to salvation.
This is Dnyaneshwars teaching.
Baji,
with your palm you are protecting
only one lamp.
But I want to
protect every lamp that is lit
in every home in the world.
Only we have that strength.
How do you manage to do this?
What?
Each time, you conveniently
forget your family.
Dont you long for your son, Shambhuraje?
Even when we got the sad news
of your wife's death,
you were so unaffected and stable.
- How can ordinary men like us-
- Sai was not just my wife, Baji.
She was my lover.
Sai was my first love.
Sai was my breath.
When I went to...
Rajgad to meet her
I could see the darkness under her eyes.
The blood clots under her nails.
Her shivering feet
and her last moments.
She had staged a pretense.
Only so that
I dont get distracted from my goal...
and I don't wander away.
So, I played along...
In her final act.
I bid her farewell, knowing fully that
it was our last meeting.
I would never be able
to see my Sai ever again.
People think it is
very easy to be Shivaji.
Just hoist a couple of saffron
flags and you become Shivaji.
They see only the Shivaji
who fights battles, swings a sword.
But that Shivaji has a heart.
A heart that loves.
A heart that grieves
Feels pain
Suffers through memories.
So what should that Shivaji do?
Let go of everything?
If I dont do this, Baji,
theres no else who will.
Before you win wars
on the battlefield, Baji,
you must win the battles within.
Ive started this holy ritual
of sacrifice called Swarajya,
In that before you sacrifice yourself,
you must sacrifice your loved ones.
And I shall keep making
this sacrifice.
Emperor Aurangzebs uncle, Shaiste Khan,
has arrived at the outskirts of Swarajya
with a cavalry of one lakh.
Hell be there in ten or twelve days.
If he reaches Panhala,
it will be the end of Shivba.
Somebody must warn him.
We cannot wait anymore.
But your majesty
the siege is so dense
that let alone any man,
even his thoughts cant enter through.
The chains of such
a siege can only be broken,
by the bonds of blood.
Your Majesty,
your respected mother has
sent a message that Shaiste Khan
will be here anytime now.
Even an ant cant pass through,
how did you get in here?
An ant cant...
but an elephant surely can, Baji.
Theres a stream that runs
through the dense forest in the north.
I waited the entire night
for it to overflow.
The heavy morning rains were a blessing.
- And your Majesty-
- We must break the siege in three days.
Pratapgad Fort is a hundred
and twenty-five miles away.
Not Pratapgad Baji,
Not Pratapgad.
The only link between
Konkan and the ghats.
Fort Khelna.
What happens when Siddi comes
and lays siege to Khelna?
Khelna is such a huge fort that
it is impossible to lay siege to it.
Also, from Khelna we
can descend into Konkan.
And
Our Bandal Deshmukh is also at Khelna.
Abaji
Baji
You shall meet Siddi
today itself and tell him
in your robust voice that
Considering the whole situation,
finally, Shivaji Raje has
accepted defeat.
He will surrender to you tomorrow night.
I will treat your Shivaji Raje
with utmost respect.
Son, Masood, why dont you show
them the arrangements
where we are going to keep their king?
Yes father.
Please come with me.
Not tomorrow, tonight hes
going to escape. You must-
Also the rest of the plan
You must go through it.
Come on.
We are breaking this siege.
Tonight.
Tonight?
But hadnt we planned for tomorrow.
Circumstances have changed so we have
to improvise our plan accordingly, Abaji.
No one will move
till our King instructs.
I have full faith in Baji.
Look into the eyes of God, Abaji.
Put all your virtue at stake.
Carry only your weapons with you.
The journey ahead is tough.
Shivaji Raje will go in the palanquin.
The rest six hundred of us,
will leave Panhala from
from the Raj Dindi side,
Baji?
We had decided to
leave from the west gate.
Yes, the enemy is sparse over there.
You have trusted me thus far.
Trust me with all your heart.
Your majesty.
We dont have much time.
Lets go.
Har Har Mahadev!
Har Har Mahadev!
Lets go.
The platoon on the east
has thrown a feast for us.
I will celebrate only
once Shivaji is dead.
You think Baji Deshpande
will betray Shivaji Bhosale?
Baji is not betraying Shivaji Bhosale.
He is protecting his own son.
After all blood is thicker than duty.
"The sword is drawn from the sheath..."
"Shivajis army is poised"
"Everybody charged with passion"
"Ready to fight this battle."
"Fear is cast off the cliff..."
"Darkness is a friend"
"Charging on the blood soaked soil"
"The Marathas advance"
"The danger is enormous"
"The war cry in their hearts
is their mantra to victory"
"Har..."
"Har..."
"Har..."
"Har Har Har Mahadev..."
"Har..."
"Har..."
"Har..."
"Har Har Har Mahadev..."
"The darkest darkness
and relentless rains"
"The perilous path
obstructing their way"
"Guided by wit and
charged with patriotism"
"The Maratha warrior
fights bravely to the end"
"They will hold the gorge
and slaughter anyone who tries to cross"
"This passion to fight is dear to them"
"Be it day or night"
"The war cry in their hearts
is their mantra to victory"
What is it?
Abaji,
Go from the north.
Check whether the road to
Khelna is free and safe to pass.
Hurry up and be careful.
Janab Siddi Jauhar?
Yes.
Come... embrace me.
No, thanks.
My intestines are fine
inside my stomach.
The tent is yours.
The soldiers are yours.
Why would you be scared?
Fear not.
Come sit.
Sit. Sit.
No
I told Afzal Khan we must talk
and settle our disputes...
But he
Let me go!
He is the one who killed my father.
I will rip him apart!
Fazal
I shall give Shivaji Raje an
easy death and set an example...
Let this be known in history,
we, the black African Siddis
arent beasts.
Under this black skin we too are humans.
Shivaji Raje Bhosale
Where is your famous Bhavani sword?
Where the hell is the other palanquin?
Where is Shivaji Raje?
Abaji
I am safe.
When I was preparing for the siege,
I had been to Nebhapur village
to arrange for food
I saw him.
He was singing praises of our king
and he looked quite like Shivaji Raje.
Such a big coincidence was
a sign of danger or a way out of it?
I hatched a plan.
I brought him up to Panhala
through a secret passage.
And kept him inside a secret chamber
unbeknownst to anyone.
Once we broke the siege,
time would be a bigger enemy than Siddi.
To buy us more time,
to mislead Siddi,
I sought Shiva Kashids help.
He agreed without
thinking of his own safety.
Only on one condition.
He wanted to meet his
king at least once.
Your Majesty.
Be brave and take
the lords blessings.
My king.
You are my only god.
My king.
Once we set off to break the siege,
I secretly put Shiva Kashid
in the other palanquin.
As decided, the second
palanquin took a different route.
Siddi Jauhar must be thinking
he has Shivaji Raje in his custody.
The only way to break the siege was to
fool the person who thinks
he cannot be fooled.
You scoundrel.
Hey,
Mind your tongue.
I may be just a dummy,
yet, I am Shivaji Raje.
Where is Shivaji?
My king?
My king is right here in my heart.
And hes right there up on your head.
My king is safe and sound.
My king wears an impregnable
armour called Baji Prabhu.
No
Baji cannot sacrifice
his own son for Shivaji.
You have no idea,
who our Baji Prabhu is.
A million Marathas will die but they
wont let the saviour of a million die.
My king.
A final salute from Shiva Kashid.
Wow, Siddi Jauhar, wow.
Fooled by an impersonator?
I see.
This is why Baji pretended
to help us so that
they may get a safe passage.
And we may capture this fake Shivaji.
He wants me to take this one to Bijapur
while the real one is
safe up there in Panhala?
Masood.
Take two thousand men.
Hurry up.
Wait, you go to Khelna fort.
If he goes there,
he will get killed anyways.
You go to Pratapgad.
I will stay right here.
In this chaos, what if he comes here...
and tell your men to
destroy Deshpandes house.
Let it be known that
under this black skin
runs the blood of the black devil!
We must go.
Khelna fort is only a few miles away.
I have bad news.
We've been betrayed.
Surve, Sawant and Dalvi have
created a blockade ahead to Khelna.
Their only job is to block us.
And with Siddi's
army following us
and the soldiers at Khelna
we're trapped between these two.
When our own Marathas backstab us...
They dont deserve
to be called Marathas.
- Were six hundred.
- No Phulaji
Siddi has literally bought
Surve, Sawant and Dalvi.
They have only one goal.
To capture our King.
So, shouldnt we fight them at all?
- I say we crush them-
- Raje, you must leave.
You must leave for Khelna immediately.
Raje leave, right this moment.
This is the only way to Khelna.
I will stay here with
three hundred Bandals
and stop Siddis army
from reaching you.
No Baji.
My Shiva Kashid laid
down his life for me.
Not anymore.
They want Shivaji.
Then Shivaji will stay right here.
The blood they spill
not be that of my Mawlas,
It will be mine.
It will be Shivajis blood.
Youre speaking like a hot-headed Mavla.
Not like the protector
of a million Mavlas.
Baji, Abaji
You go ahead.
If I make it to safety,
well build our Swarajya together.
If I die in this very gorge,
then you should
fulfill my dream.
Weapons rust Wars end
This body may perish.
But the goal must live on
And all of us have but one goal-
Dont you understand
what I am telling you?
None of us can accomplish
what you are asking us to do.
Your impossible dream
Only you can accomplish.
Youre not that young Shivba anymore.
Open your eyes and look at that Shivaji
whom I have seen.
Soldiers die for their king
But for the first time I saw a King
willing to die for an ordinary soldier.
Just so that each of his soldiers
gets a quarter of a roti more,
I saw a king who starves
himself for eleven days.
And not just this country,
the entire world will
never see such a noble King.
Many a Baji will come and go
there will never be another Shivaji.
But Baji
The world that I want
my son Mahadji to grow up in,
only you can build that world, my king.
When you meet my Mahadji,
tell him,
his father is going to miss him a lot.
Baji
In this endeavour for Swarajya,
one must sacrifice our own people
before sacrificing oneself
Isnt it?
Then why do your hands tremble today?
Why do you hesitate today?
For me?
No, my king.
You once told me...
To win wars on the battlefield,
one must win the battles within.
Today, one more time, you must win
this battle within, my King.
Dont get entangled in your Baji.
Leave now.
Leave, my king
Take three hundred men
with you and go to Khelna Fort.
Fire the cannons to signal your safety.
My three hundred Bandals and I will
hold off Siddi right here in this gorge.
Till I hear the cannons go off,
I swear on Goddess Vinzai,
Not a single enemy soldier
will cross this gorge.
This is Bajis final
promise to you my King.
Before you leave, remember one thing...
No matter what happens tonight.
No matter who survives
and who is killed.
But my king,
dont you ever forget this night.
Till you become the first
Chhatrapati of this country,
this one night of mine will be
a debt you owe me Shivaji.
Go.
I am there for you.
Go.
Lets go on foot.
When the time comes, this dand-patta
must reach me, come what may.
Long will be this night.
And the enemy is much stronger.
How many will each of you take down?
Come on. Give me a number.
Tell me.
Sada?
Ten.
Do one thing.
Go home and shove your head
in your father, Dhondibas behind.
He is right to ridicule you.
Bloody Ten?
Each one of you must kill
at least a hundred enemy men.
This world is built by Great men,
but when the time comes,
it is protected by mad men.
Madmen
Insane Maniacs
Just like you...
And you...
Each one of you
Each one who thinks that
three hundred men
will hold off an army of
fifteen thousand in this gorge.
Three hundred versus fifteen thousand.
Bloody hell
You morons; you all suck
at mathematics dont you.
And the maddest man here is me.
Because I believe that with your help
I can make this impossible possible
I will hold this gorge
for one whole night.
Come on.
Lets show this world.
What three hundred
mad Marathas can achieve.
If at all we survive this night,
then well see
how history bows down
in front of us Marathas.
This gorge belongs to mad men.
Bhala Bhala
This victory belongs to mad men...
Bhala Bhala...
This history belongs to mad men...
By the name of Goddess Vinzai...
Bhala Bhala...
Chaang Bhala!
Har Har...
Mahadev!
Har Har Mahadev!
Har Har Mahadev!
Har Har Mahadev!
Din-Din Din-Din
"Bloodshed at every step they take"
"The brave warriors
like tigers they fight"
"Strong and agile masters of warcraft"
"This is their ultimate war"
"The battleground is a raging fire"
"They butcher the enemy in fervour"
"Sentencing a gruesome death"
"A death to their enemies"
"Their enemy will tremble in fear"
"The war cry in their hearts
is their mantra to victory..."
"Har..."
"Har..."
"Har..."
"Har...Har... Har Mahadev"
"Har..."
"Har..."
"Har..."
"Har...Har... Har Mahadev"
"Har..."
"Har..."
"Har..."
"Har...Har... Har Mahadev..."
Our mission is not to kill the enemy.
It is to stop the enemy.
Tonight, we are not the kings sword.
We are his shield!!!
Jai Bhavani!
Jai Bhavani.
Jai Bhavani.
Jai Bhavani.
Lets go back.
Those mad Marathas have blocked our path.
How many?
I dont know how many but they are there.
And that brute demon
Baji Prabhu Deshpande has gone crazy.
I must kill Shivaji
before he can reach Khelna.
And anyone who tries to stop me,
I shall slaughter him.
You take charge of the troops behind.
Har Har...
Mahadev!
Har Har...
Mahadev!
If you run away today
youll spend your
whole life running away.
Get the rifle-man.
Go.
'Till I hear the cannons go off,'
I swear on Goddess Vinzai, '
'Not a single enemy soldier
will cross this gorge.'
'This is Bajis final promise.'
Look
The God of Death, Yamraj has
come on his buffalo to take me away.
Tell Yamraj to wait for a while.
Go tell him.
This Baji has no time to die because
my king is yet to reach safety.
Wait, you moron, wait.
If you take one more step
before the cannons go off
I will hack you to death.
Surve, Sawant, Dalvi get out of my way.
Let me go.
Every moment we waste, is the
death of one of my Mavlas in that gorge.
Each one of them is waiting
for me to reach safely.
Let me go up to Khelna.
Let you go?
Bloody hell
That pride of Swarajya,
That Bhosale pomp,
And your
Maratha arrogance
Where is all that today?
Well lock horns some other day Sawant.
I dont have time for this today.
And to waste that very time,
Siddi Jauhar has rewarded us with lands.
So while we keep chatting,
Siddis army will reach here...
after massacring your men in the gorge.
That is our deal.
Deal?
My innocent, self-less Baji,
has left his family behind,
left his own young son behind,
just to honour my word,
to build this Swarajya,
is getting chopped to pieces
And you?
Youre selling your
souls for a mere fiefdom?
Youre stooping so low?
Yes.
We are stooping so low.
What can you do about it?
I am going to say this only once.
Move out of my way.
Let me go to Khelna.
Because today,
if I draw out my Bhavani sword,
Then even if destiny stands in my path,
I will cut it to pieces.
Out of my way.
Har Har
Mahadev!
Once again...
and one last time
I'm leaving you Baji.
Take care of yourself.
Baji
Baji
"His eyes spew deathly fire"

as swift as lightening"
"Cross him and meet your maker"
"His eyes spew deathly fire"

"His sword strikes
as swift as lightening"
"Cross him and meet your maker..."
"When he gets angry,
the battle field sees the dance of death."
"You are more than God to us"
"With Jagdamba's name"
"This end is a
new beginning"
"Determined, he charges,"
"Shiv Narasimha.."
Bajiba
Tell my father,
I was not a sissy.
Aai,
Sumee, go inside.
Sumee.
Grab her.
"Baji..."
"He is Baji..."
"Har... Har... Har..."
"Har... Har... Har..."

"He thundered"
"He gushed"
"He fumed"
"He flared"
"He arose"
"He shone"
"He is a tempest, turbulent and wild."
"The bravest of all warriors"
Attack!
Come on!
Har Har Mahadev!
Shivba,
My king...
My friend...
My story ends here.
My body has become a sieve,
now let me go.
If God asks me,
Baji, what did you achieve in life?
I will tell him,
"Out here is a man far
greater than you."
I earned the good fortune
of dying for that man, Shivaji.
I lived on borrowed breaths.
I cheated death a hundred times.
But I did keep my word.
Now you too
must keep yours.
Chhatrapati
Shivaji
"Body ruthlessly battered"
"Soul flown away to eternity"
"Life has achieved its ultimate goal"
"A martyr with great honour."
"The wheel of time
has come to a standstill"
"Death is the ultimate surrender."
"The wheel of time
has come to a standstill"
"Death is the ultimate surrender."
"He is Baji"
"Valiant He is Baji"
"He is Baji"
"He is fire He is Baji."
After Shivba's historic win... '
'Badi Sahiba lost her sanity.'
'It is said Siddi Jauhar
consumed poison and killed himself.'
'After bringing Adilshahi to its knees'
'Over the years Shivba fought & defeated
nine enemies in a single-handed blitz.'
'And the roots of Swarajya
spread deep into the Deccan soil.'
'And finally the day dawned...'
'when Shivbas glory
dazzled the entire world.'
'I had waited three-hundred
and fifty years for this day.'
'On the thirteenth day of Jyeshta.'
'Shaliwahan shakey 1595,'
'our Shivba vanquished
the mighty Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb'
'and became Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.'
'Baji gave his life to Shivba.'
'Shivba gave Hindustan its Swarajya.'
'And Hindustan gave the world
the formidable war cry'
HAR HAR MAHADEV!
