Ardaas Sarbat De Bhale Di (2024) Movie Script

Seerat, have you done your homework?
Yes, I have.
Hurry up,
Seerat or we'll be late for school.
Yes, yes, I'm coming.
Why did I have to see him
so early in the morning?
Sadhu!
Sadhu!
Have you lost your mind, Sadhu Singh?
What's all this nonsense?
I just want to die.
I want to end it all.
Only cowards kill themselves, you know?
Yes, I am a coward.
I'm just a big coward.
Sadhu!
It's better to just get it over with
instead of slowly dying inside every day.
I can't take their taunts anymore.
Sadhu Singh,
you have to trust in Almighty.
I just don't trust Him anymore.
I asked for. Did He give it to me?
I really don't trust Him at all.
We ask Almighty for all the wrong things.
We go to Him wanting
all the happiness in the world,
but there's no pain or sorrow
that He hasn't experienced Himself.
We treat Almighty like
He's an ATM for happiness.
Baba Nanak taught us how
to be strong and mighty.
That person who,
even amid pain, doesn't feel it,
who's unaffected by pleasure,
affection, or fear,
and who sees gold and dust the same way.
It's easy to say
your actions seem so sweet tome
you when you're living in luxury.
But to say your actions seem so sweet tome
while going through the tough times,
that's what really matters.
We buy big cars and fancy houses and write
"This is a gift from You,
Almighty" on them.
But we forget the part
where Baba Nanak says
that even sorrows, pains,
and troubles are Almighty's blessings.
"Good many endure distress hunger
and perpetual chastisement."
"Even these are Thine gifts, O Bestower!"
Worshiping Almighty just
so you can get happiness, joy,
and success is like a business deal.
To ask for the strength
to face difficult times,
to accept everything as Almighty's will,
that's true worship.
If happiness has left your life
like a passing breeze,
You'll see that even sorrows
will be crushed under your feet.
Either blow your worries
away like it's nothing
or drink them down like tea.
Always be thankful,
and pray to the Almighty.
Come on,
let's pray for everyone's well-being.
"Always pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"Always pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"If you are praying, my dear,
pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"If you are praying, my dear,
pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"Pray for everyone's happiness."
"Pray for everyone's happiness."
"And pray a boon of good judgment."
"If you are praying, my dear,
pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"If you are praying, my dear,
pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"Seek water for the plants."
"And clothes for the less fortunate."
"Seek food for the hungry."
"And grains for the birds."
"Seek food for the hungry."
"And grains for the birds."
"For the homeless seek..."
"For the homeless seek a home."
"If you are praying, my dear,
pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"If you are praying, my dear,
pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"Always pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"Always pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"Always pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"Always pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"Always pray for everyone's wellbeing."
"Always pray for everyone's wellbeing."
Alright, distribute
these to everyone, okay?
Give me also.
Hi, Mr. Gurdayal Singh! Greetings to you.
How are you doing?
I've got everything ready to go.
When are you heading to Hazur Sahib next?
Make sure to save a spot for me.
I've been reserving a seat for you
for the past five years now.
But that seat is always empty.
No, Gurmukh Singh,
I've made up my mind this time.
Well, if you've made up your mind,
that's great.
We just need to take that first step,
and then Almighty will guide
us through the rest.
Like Bhai Gurdas said,
"A disciple who walks one step
towards the Guru to take refuge,
and goes to him with
devotion and humility -
the Guru will then advance
to receive him by taking a million steps."
The elders are right
when they say fathers
and sons should be friends.
But we never really had that kind of bond.
I was too busy when he needed me.
And now when I need him,
he doesn't have time for me.
I had made a vow
when we were expecting Sahej.
"Almighty, give me a son and I'll go pay
my respects at Hazur Sahib."
Forget fulfilling that vow,
I couldn't even make time for my own son.
And now, when I finally have the time,
my life is about to end.
Life isn't as short as all that,
Gurdayal Singh.
It's just that we tend
to start living it too late.
By the time we figure out the right path,
it's almost time to go.
If I couldn't go there to keep my vow,
I can at least go to seek forgiveness.
I've decided I'm going
back to India tomorrow.
I've been wanting to go back to India too.
But my son and daughter-in-law
won't let me leave.
Even your mom wanted to go back,
but did your wife let her?
She passed away still
wishing she could go.
Don't joke around, Jinder.
I'm not joking, Johra Singh.
I'm just saying
we have to live with the
consequences of our actions.
I can't blame you
when I did the same thing to my own dad.
Because of work and family obligations,
I didn't give my dad
the attention he deserved.
You are right.
Alright, let's change the subject,
you guys.
Bye guys, I'm off then.
- Gurdayal Singh, could you do us a favor?
- What's that?
Could you bring back
some offerings for us?
- Yes.
- Yes.
- Sure, no problem. Goodbye then.
- Goodbye.
Happy journey!
"Go for it, young man."
"My heart or Almighty alone knows,"
"The joy in me that grows."
"Well said!"
"Well said, Shinda!"
"No regrets even if I die today,"
"For I've already stepped
into heaven's sway."
"Right here! Right now!"
"I have traveled the world,"
"But none can match this place,"
"For this place is like
a precious rosy pearl."
"I can give it in writing,"
"You won't find another place
like Punjab I think."
"Go for it! Go for it, Punjabi!"
"I can give it in writing,"
"You won't find another place
like Punjab I think."
Gurdayal!
Hey, Gurdayal!
You're back, my friend!
Bachittar, is that really you?
"Well said! Well said, Bachittar!"
"Well said! Well said, Gurdayal!"
"Bless you!"
"Go for it!"
My friend!
Oh, Gurdayal,
you've got me all emotional!
Your face would make anyone cry.
My Canadian buddy is back!
Greetings, Mr. Gurdayal Singh!
Gurmukh Singh, look at that,
I'm here just like I promised!
But I didn't save you a seat this time.
Ah, don't worry, I'll stand if I have to.
No way, you're not standing!
I'll make sure you get a seat,
even if I have to put
you on top of the bus!
Master!
Master!
I'm so happy to see you!
- Seeking your blessings, master!
- You've got to touch his feet for that.
Yes, yes, of course.
Welcome!
Bless you.
Why's my son out there?
It's stuck.
Come on, let's go get it out.
"I let nothing make me fret,"
"My own path I steadfastly set."
"My heart with joy I firmly fill,"
"While tensions in pockets lie still."
"I let nothing make me fret,"
"My own path I steadfastly set."
"My heart with joy I firmly fill,"
"While tensions in pockets lie still."
"Incomparable!
You're incomparable, my friend!"
"Like Chandigarh is proud of its sectors,"
There the dad has taken his son's hand.
There we go!
- "We're proud of our sons,"
- More throttle, master!
- More throttle, master!
- "Our mighty tractors."
- "We're proud of our sons,"
- Use all your strength.
More throttle, master!
Give it some more gas!
More throttle, master!
It got out! It got out!
- This son only listens to his father.
- He got it out.
"Go for it!"
He may have left the village,
but he hasn't lost those old habits!
Son, I made it here safe and sound.
I tried giving you
a call a couple of times.
Guess you were tied up with something.
No worries though.
Just give me a ring whenever
you're free, alright?
Bye.
Dad, did you get there okay?
I'm at work.
I'll give you a call back
when I've got some free time.
Bye.
Greetings.
These kids these days, man,
they've got it made.
A bus comes to pick them up,
and their mom
and dad drop them off at the stop.
Back in our day, we used to ride
to school on the back of a calf.
Our studies were at the mercy
of that calf's mood -
if it headed toward the school,
we'd go learn,
but if it went towards the pond,
we'd take the day off.
- Greetings.
- Greetings.
- Greetings. The school bus is here.
- Greetings.
- Everything good, Mr. Gurdayal Singh?
- I'm doing well, Gurmukh Singh.
Who are they? I didn't recognize them.
Oh, that was Bachittar Singh's son
and daughter-in-law.
Bye.
Ahh, I see!
They're headed to Hazur Sahib with us too.
- Okay.
- Can I be honest with you?
Yes.
Honestly, I didn't think you'd be back
from Canada this time either.
My son, he wouldn't let me go alone.
He was like, "Why put yourself through
the hassle by traveling alone?
I'll come with you."
It's tough for him to take the time
off from work, you know.
In fact, he never really lets me
go anywhere on my own.
He's always like,
"Who's going to look after you?"
Mr. Gurdayal Singh,
you should count your blessings,
because sons like that
are pretty rare these days.
Goodbye.
That's not fair.
How can you say that?
- You used to drink like the world was ending.
- Yes.
In fact, we learned how to drink from you.
And now you're saying
you won't drink anymore?
Life teaches you a lot, my friend.
You should quit drinking.
- It's not good for your health.
- Come on!
Gurdayal, we were so happy to hear
from Gurmukh that you've
got a really good son.
He treats you like royalty.
He's the ideal son, for sure.
- Hmm.
- You're a lucky man.
Look at me, on the other hand.
My buddy's back from
Canada after 35 years,
and I'm over here trying to get him
to drink at the pumping station.
That's just not right.
Brother,
how do I even take you home when
my own bed is set up in the doorway?
It's not that my son is bad or anything.
They used to say the Kalyug was coming.
Turns out, it's already here!
Sometimes I feel like he loves me,
other times I wonder.
It's all this science and technology,
moving life at such a breakneck pace.
I can't keep up with it.
Gurdayal,
I think we just couldn't
adapt to how life is these days.
It's like it has become
incomprehensible, you know?
He took out a loan to send his son abroad.
Forget the son even coming back,
he didn't even bother checking
in on how he's doing.
We told him to ask his son
to send him an iPhone.
IPhones are more useful
than sons these days.
At least an iPhone
can keep you entertained.
Ever since his son went abroad,
we started calling him "iPhone".
We'd tease him by calling him iPhone.
Like "iPhone 12, 13, 14, 15..."
And when he put on some weight,
we started calling him "Pro Max".
Labh Singh Pro Max!
Wonderful!
Our sons may not be perfect,
but at least they don't hit us.
It just breaks my heart to hear about
the state of some folks in the village.
Ah, forget it, Brother.
Let's just have a drink.
Yes, please.
Kundan!
Yes, master?
Can you get me some water, please?
You got it, master!
Hello?
Yes, Dad?
How's it going, son?
I'm doing well, Dad.
And how about you?
Did you get there alright?
Here you go, master
Yes, I made it here safe and sound.
Everything's good on this end too.
That's great to hear, Dad.
Alright, I'll let you go then.
Take care.
Son...
Yes, Dad?
Did you have something else to say?
No, I just...
Son, I was really missing you, you know.
That's all.
Okay, Dad.
Try to come back soon, alright?
Alright then, son.
Okay, bye Dad. Take care.
Okay.
Greetings, Sadhu.
- Greetings.
- I was actually headed your way.
What is it?
What's going on?
First, you were talking about
ending your own life,
and now it looks like you might
be planning to end someone else's.
What's all this about?
I'm just going to the field
to grab some burning wood.
Okay.
I wanted to let you know we're leaving
for Hazur Sahib the day after tomorrow.
So be ready, alright?
Bless you.
Little master, it's Kundan.
Something happened to Master this morning.
He went to the bathroom last night
and took a bad fall.
I've brought him to the hospital.
Please come as soon as you can.
Sahej...
Look, there's no use talking about it
now that you've already
booked the tickets to India.
I'm already so stressed
out because of work as it is.
I'm fighting with
my boss every single day.
You should probably just catch
an Uber and leave in the morning
because I'm not going to be
able to drop you off at the airport.
I have to get to work.
"One who belongs to the
All-powerful Lord and Master,
no one can destroy him."
I'm Gurmukh Singh.
Almighty saved your dad.
Saved him?
He was having a good time in Canada.
Suddenly out of the blue,
he said I had made a vow
and I needed to fulfill it.
He had made this vow many years ago.
He suddenly remembered it,
in his old age.
Don't say that.
Why shouldn't I?
Almighty always...
Hello, sir?
Sir, I was trying
to get in touch with you.
Sir, please, listen to me.
Sir, sir... yes, sir.
Oh, this world and its colorful facets.
I'm in India.
Gurdayal Singh, I have to say your son
is certainly praiseworthy.
Mr. Gurmukh Singh?
- Yes, Doctor?
- He is absolutely fine now.
He got a minor stroke
due to high blood pressure
cutting off the circulation
on one side of the body.
But I hope that he'll quickly
recover with regular exercise
and medication.
Okay.
You can take him home tomorrow morning.
Thank you, Doctor.
- Bye.
- Lord Almighty.
Thank you, Almighty.
Thank you,
Almighty, you made me see this day.
Keep everything in order.
Have mercy.
I pray that everything works out well.
My son will get well soon now.
That's it, then,
my son will take me on a world tour.
Oh Almighty, have mercy.
Dad, come and get your dinner.
Give it here.
Here you go.
- Did you get it?
- Here's your dress.
There's only one here.
Where's the other one gone?
This is what he gave me.
Bachchan Kaur,
why's she collecting so many dresses?
They're heading to Hazur Sahib.
I see, and what's the reason for that?
They want to pray for a son.
Ah, they want a son.
But they already have
such a lovely daughter.
Believe me, Bachchan Kaur,
I keep wishing that in the next life,
you'll be Bachittar Singh
and I'll be your Bachno.
You can sleep out there in the doorway,
while I sit here and boss everyone around.
You're still cracking jokes at this age?
These little jokes help
me get through the days, you know.
Otherwise,
it's not easy to live a life of misery.
Oh dear, Dad's forgotten
his water glass again.
Give it to him.
Dad, why don't you just
take everything in one go?
Why do you always make
us run around for you?
Wait.
Take this.
Good job, my son.
Well done! What are you reading?
Here my son, have it. Come on.
Have it, son.
I ate it all.
Bye, Mr. Gurdayal Singh.
Take care.
I'll be going now.
Gurmukh,
when are we heading to Hazur Sahib?
Have you lost your mind?
You barely escaped death.
You just got out of the hospital
and now you want to go there?
Sahej, if he wants to go, then...
This is a family matter,
- you don't need to get involved.
- I won't leave until I pay my respects there.
You've always had your
way with your stubbornness.
That's why I lost my mom.
It wasn't my fault.
It was your fault.
It was the fault of the driver who
came from the wrong side. He was drunk.
You were drunk too.
But I wasn't driving the car, son.
Your mom was driving the car.
Mom was driving because
you were intoxicated
You knew Mom wasn't comfortable
driving on the highway at night.
She was driving only because of you.
It wasn't my fault, son.
It was not my fault.
No matter what,
Mom would still be alive
if she wasn't driving.
The one who was driving
the car would have died.
Sahej,
you cannot stop what
is destined to happen.
Look, neither you...
Do you think
your dad killed your mom?
If your dad were driving,
you'd blame your mom.
No.
Because it was my dad
who was drunk, not my mom.
I know you're angry, Sahej,
and it's justifiable.
But your dad has returned after so long.
Who knows what burdens
he carries in his heart?
It would be good if he
could find peace with Almighty.
Let him find himself again,
my brother.
Kundan will go with Dad.
You should leave on the fourth.
I have a flight that night,
so I'll leave at the same time.
"Humans and Almighty, they're not
so different, it's true,"
"But for us to become divine,"
"That won't ever do."
"That won't ever do."
"O' my heart, don't play Lord, I pray."
"Either this way or that way."
"O' my heart, don't play Lord, I pray."
"Either this way or that way."
"You want things to go,"
"You want things to go exactly
as you say,"
"O' my heart, don't play Lord, I pray."
"Either this way or that way."
"O' my heart, don't play Lord, I pray."
"Either this way or that way."
"You cherish some with pride,"
"While others you cast aside,"
"This longing that
from your heart does flow,"
"I cannot comprehend
where these pleas may go."
"I cannot comprehend
where these pleas may go."
My friend!
- "For some, you have no words to bestow,"
- How are you?
"For some, you have no words to bestow,"
Come here.
"While for others,
your love overflows like a stream's flow."
"O' my heart, don't play Lord, I pray."
"Either this way or that way."
"O' my heart, don't play Lord, I pray."
"Either this way or that way."
"If you love,
you love with all your might,"
"You love them a million times."
"But if you turn away,"
"You never trust that person again."
"You never trust that person again."
"For some,
your hatred burns fierce and bright,"
"For some,
your hatred burns fierce and bright,"
"For others,
your love shines warm and right."
"O' my heart, don't play Lord, I pray."
"Either this way or that way."
- Here are your granny's medical reports.
- Okay.
The reports indicate
that she is fit to travel.
- Okay
- By the way, where is she planning to go?
- She is planning to go to Hazur Sahib.
- Hazur Sahib.
People tend to reconnect
with their faith as they grow older.
Bani...
He's Sahej.
His dad is also planning
to go to Hazur Sahib.
Yeah, he's finally going there.
He had a vow to go there
even before I was born.
But he got busy with work,
so he couldn't go there earlier.
He didn't focus on his
spiritual needs back then.
Now that he is free,
he suddenly remembers
the importance of his faith.
How's your dad doing, Sahej?
He's doing better.
I had come to pick up his medications.
I thought I should
come and meet you as well.
Alright, let's go, Granny.
What does the doctor say about my reports?
The doctor says your reports are fine.
Then why this sad face,
as if the doctor confirmed
my ticket to hell?
You are too much, Granny. Let's go.
Let's go.
Come.
I wonder what he's carrying in these bags.
It's so damn heavy.
- Greetings, Mr. Gurdayal Singh.
- Greetings!
Driver!
- Open the boot. And put the bags inside.
- Driver, stop!
Brother, take that bag out.
Why? Aren't you all going?
Who says we aren't going?
We are definitely going.
But that bag goes in another car.
Then why am I here?
This bag belongs to Master.
Little master is supposed
to be traveling with you.
You should keep his bags in there.
Their bags match their status.
Much better.
Keep the big bags at the bottom
and place the smaller ones on top of them.
Okay.
Okay, I'll get going, Dad.
Mr. Khan...
Some relationships
are like empty envelopes
that don't have anything in them,
but you still have to take care of them.
Hello, everyone.
Mr. Gurdayal Singh had
to visit Hazur Sahib to fulfill his vow.
Kundan hit the jackpot by
getting a chance to go with him.
Right?
He's...
Hello.
I'm Gurjant, Bachittar Singh's son.
- This is my wife.
- Greetings.
This is my daughter.
Our first child was a daughter,
so we are praying our
second child is a son.
That's why we are going
to pay our respects.
My wife is pregnant.
We want an heir.
Sometimes,
you need a Kundan even if you have heirs.
Greetings, Gurdayal Singh.
I am Santi, your neighbor.
This is my granddaughter, Bani.
What's wrong? Are you okay?
- Yes, I'm much better now.
- And I am Salim Khan,
Captain of the ship, your pilot.
With love or with anger,
you can only address me as Salim Khan.
I always wanted to fly a plane.
I thought I'd grow up to be a pilot.
I couldn't become a pilot,
so I became a driver.
It's a better deal, Mr. Khan.
A plane has only three wheels,
and here you get to drive a four-wheeler.
Greetings.
Come on in.
Is he taking Sadhu Singh along as well?
- Master?
- Yes?
After committing all kinds of sins,
a person starts going on pilgrimages!
We're all familiar
with each other already.
But let me introduce you,
this is Mr. Sadhu Singh.
He'll also be joining
us on this pilgrimage.
His name is Sadhu (Saint),
but his deeds are more like a devil's.
Gurmukh, what good will we gain by taking
a sinner along with us?
"Fareed,
if you have a keen understanding,
then do not write black marks
against anyone else."
"Look underneath your owncollarinstead."
Ma'am, a sinner is someone
whose sins have been exposed.
But the truth is,
we've all committed sins at some point.
The one we're going to meet,
the Forgiver,
knows better than us
what's right and what's wrong.
"My actions are lowly, says Nanak."
"Protect the honor of the one
who has sought your shelter, O my Master!"
Brother, is your whole
family going to Hazur Sahib?
No, not my whole family, just my dad.
So I guess you have
already been there before?
No, actually my dad is the only
one from our family going there.
You know,
Babaji said that every Sikh should
visit Hazur Sahib before they turn 60.
My dad is going now after he turned 65.
It's not like they stop
you if you're over 60, right?
It's supposed to be a really nice place.
I've heard it's where you
can really feel Almighty's presence.
Really?
Have you been there yourself?
No, I haven't gone myself,
but my dad has been before.
He went after he turned 70 as well.
Do you plan to go there
once you turn 70 too?
No, I think I'll try
to go sooner than that.
I don't want to make the same mistake
my dad did by waiting so long.
Greetings, Brother.
- Go ahead and fill her up, son.
- Alright, Brother.
Greetings.
How are you, Gurmukh?
I'm doing well, how about you?
Missing your son
and daughter-in-law already, huh?
Weren't you the one complaining about
having to stay near the doorway before?
We haven't even left the village yet
and you're already on the phone.
I know I don't have
much going on, Gurmukh.
But I'm not so perfect that I'll start
getting all anxious without them around.
Anyway, I wasn't calling to check
on my son and daughter-in-law.
Then who were you trying to reach?
I called to ask how my friend Gurdayal
with the crooked face is doing.
Your friend is doing just fine,
he's doing well.
Make sure he pays his respects.
I told him he should
stay with us a few more days -
We'll see if we can fix up his face.
The doctor will have to be
the one to properly fix his face, sir.
But the real fix for his
future will be where he's going.
- Master!
- Granny!
Are you okay, Jyoti?
You're about to board
the right flight now.
Go ahead and hop on.
Okay everyone, looks like we've
got an unexpected guest joining us.
Well, at least that extra seat
of ours won't go to waste now.
This is Sahej, he's the apple of the eye
of our very own Mr. Gurdayal Singh.
Gurmukh, my brother?
Yes, Mr. Khan?
How long do we let anger, grudges,
and regrets sit in our hearts, huh?
Well, that depends on the
size of your heart, my friend.
It's about how much you can hold in there.
Yeah, take me for example.
I've got my mom, dad, wife, kids,
and my buddies' love
all stored up in here.
Whatever little space is left
is taken up by passengers and your love.
That's why, there's no room for hatred,
grievances, and regrets.
You're a lucky one, Uncle Khan,
being surrounded by all that love.
Half of our relatives only show up when they
want to vent their anger and complaints.
So tell me, where do we
keep all their negativity, huh?
And what do you think the person
with no love should keep instead?
Master's curses?
Hey, when did I ever curse you?
You dummy!
He doesn't curse,
he only felicitates you as he just did.
No Brother,
The Creator created everything
according to the rules.
Where there's day, there's night.
Where there's sorrow,
there's happiness too.
The same goes for love and hatred,
grudges and complaints.
How would we appreciate the love
if the other stuff wasn't there, right?
The only difference is,
you get your share of these
things based on your destiny.
That's why I say,
you got to take charge
of your own destiny, ma'am.
Otherwise, we end up wasting our lives
carrying the weight of all that negativity.
Death is all around us.
But we experience real death
when our loved ones change.
It's not always that our loved
ones are the ones in the wrong -
we could be too, sometimes.
Because we expect them to be Almighty,
not just regular humans.
When life changes gears,
we should focus on what's ahead,
not dwell on the past.
And if you have the will to live,
even the toughest times
don't feel so tough.
But what do we do, Mr. Khan?
Everyone here is always trying
to prove they're right
like life's some kind of exam.
"Oh my dear, what are you thinking?"
"Just be grateful that you
are still breathing."
"The air is free, the water too,"
"Why must you always charge
for your songs too?"
"You don't think of Almighty,"
"You don't pray,"
"With sins weighing you down,"
"You'll meet your end one day."
"You'll meet your end one day."
"Life is a gift, Life is worth living,"
"Life is a gift, Life is worth living,"
Come on, son, the bus is here.
Come on, let's go on a pilgrimage.
Come on.
- Come, come on in.
- Greetings, Gurmukh.
Welcome, Sister. Come on in.
- Come, son.
- She'll be joining us on this journey.
And this is her son, Kamal.
- Greetings.
- Greetings.
Greetings, everyone.
Mom, I call dibs on the window seat!
Alright, alright, get over here then.
Isn't it just gorgeous?
Okay, get in here and
make yourself comfortable.
Crazy fellow.
Did you say something, son?
Why don't you take him
to see a doctor, huh?
We just saw a doctor, son.
So what did they say?
Is he not treatable?
No, he just got better, actually.
It's not what you're thinking, son.
He had an eye surgery, you see.
And with the grace of Almighty,
he's got his sight back now.
This is the first time he is witness
the beautiful colors of this world.
Your eyes shine
with such splendid grace,
Who says you shouldn't gaze?
The world watches you,
enraptured in your rays,
The viewers never tire
of their constant gaze.
"Despite of having everything,"
"Why do you always keep seeking?"
"Why do you always keep seeking?"
"Why do you always keep seeking?"
"In this colorful life,
what's not to adore?"
"In this colorful life,"
"What do you want?"
"What do want from Almighty?"
"You already possess all you desire,"
"Gifted by the Lord I admire."
"Gifted by the Lord I admire."
"The world's at your feet, you will see,"
"Just connect with nature,
feel truly free."
"Just connect with nature,"
"Life is a gift, Life is worth living,
"Life is a gift, Life is worth living,
"Don't fret about tomorrow,"
"It's not set in stone,"
"Like lines on water,"
"It's all on its own."
"Live in the present,"
"For tomorrow is unknown,"
"Seize the moment,"
"Why worry for what's unknown?"
"Why worry for what's unknown?"
"It is time, to go for it, my dear."
"Make this life your own, my dear."
"Make it your own, my dear."
"Life is a gift, Life is worth living,
Let's take turns sharing a few words,
And let's keep talking about love.
Let's take turns sharing a few words,
And let's keep talking about love.
Bachni, can I say something?
Yes, go ahead.
Please, let me apologize.
Why are you apologizing to me?
I couldn't keep the promises
I made to you.
Welcome home, Bachni.
Your husband Bachittar may not be a king,
but I promise I'll always
treat you like a queen.
As long as I'm around,
I'll make sure you never
lose your special status.
Anything you say, it'll be done.
You used to not say much,
but I always understood you.
Your hands are so quick
when it comes to eating,
but not so much when you're working.
Come cut up those veggies
if you want to eat them.
Even though I knew and saw everything,
I couldn't speak up for you.
I'm the one who should
be apologizing here.
Even when the kids were in the wrong,
I defended them instead of you.
If I had supported you at the right time,
you wouldn't have been
sleeping by the door.
I can't thank Almighty enough
for giving me a partner like you.
So, how about this -
promise me you'll be my wife
in the next life too, Bachni.
And I promise you,
your Bachittar will fulfill
all the promises he made.
"Let's take turns sharing a few words,"
"And let's keep talking about love."
Can I have until tomorrow, boss?
I'll tell you everything, sir.
- Sir, sir.
- What "sir, sir", huh?
I'll let you know when
I can come back, alright?
You say this every day.
No, sir.
For one last time I ask you,
- Yes, sir.
- are you coming back or not?
Let me just wrap this up real quick,
and I'll be back as soon as I can.
You can take the bed, little master.
It's big enough for both of you.
Good night.
Oh shoot, I forgot the blanket!
Let me go put that on him.
Good morning, Brother.
- Mom!
- Let me take that for you, son.
C'mon, hand it over here.
What should I get for you, ma'am?
- Two cups of tea, please.
- Okay, ma'am.
- Quick as you can, please.
- Move, dear.
- Greetings.
- Greetings.
Good morning.
Good morning.
- What's your name, sweetie?
- Jyoti.
Jyoti. Wow, sweet name.
So what grade are you in, Jyoti?
I'm in fourth grade.
Wow, you're quite the little
English speaker, aren't you?
Yes, I go to a convent school.
That's great to hear.
Say, Jyoti,
what do you want to be when you grow up?
I want to grow up to be a good person.
Jyoti, since you said you want
to be a good person -
can you do me a favor?
Of course, yes! Sure.
Jyoti, my tooth is really hurting.
The doctor told me
I can't have anything cold.
But you know what,
ice cream is my favorite dessert.
I can buy it but I can't eat it myself.
Do you think you could
have it on my behalf?
Huh, are you serious?
Yeah Jyoti, like you said,
you want to be a good person.
So can you do this for me, right?
Thank you!
Son...
Gurdayal Singh must have
done something really good
to have a kid like you.
Bless you.
Hello, I'm Jyoti.
What's your name?
What's your name, Uncle?
Please, tell me.
Sadhu.
Sadhu Uncle, will you be my friend?
Jyoti! Come here!
Are you out of your mind?
You can't just go sit next to anyone,
you know!
Do you even know who he is?
You should ask before you go anywhere!
If you take off like that again,
you're in big trouble.
Go sit over there.
I should've just left her at home.
Back in the day,
we used to just let Almighty decide
what was good or bad for us.
- Mr. Khan?
- Yes?
Now all of us think we're Almighty,
handing out judgments.
Telling everyone who's good and who's bad.
Yes.
Hey Mom, what do you call that color?
It's green.
- Green?
- Yes.
But earlier you called
something else green too.
There's a big difference between the two.
That was a darker green.
This is a bright, parrot green.
- Parrot green?
- Yup.
- Wait, parrots are green?
- Of course!
Oh no, I always imagined
parrots being red in my dreams.
You better show him
all the colors at once,
or he'll mix up the colors
of every animal and bird.
He might even dream of yellow cows!
Sister, why haven't you taught
him the different color names yet?
Sister, I only learned the
colors after he started seeing them.
So how could I have taught him?
Ma'am, you should get him a smartphone.
Google can explain it all to him.
Oh no, Brother! Sit down.
Your Google has made people
stop talking to each other.
Right now,
he considers Balwant Kaur as his mom,
if we do that then he'll recognize
Google as his mom.
Just like kids see
their phones as parents,
parents have adopted
phones as their own kids.
They love them like their own child.
Back in the day,
moms used to wake up at
the slightest sound from the baby.
Now they wake up at the
slightest sound from their phone.
Mr. Gurdayal Singh,
what do you think about this?
Has the phone brought the
world together or torn it apart?
We're even taking solo pictures now.
What will we recall
when we look at them, huh?
That this is a memory
of when I was all alone?
People are crazy about
taking selfies alone -
in a world full of people,
we've become all alone.
Come on, devotees.
We will be taking a short break here.
We are on the way to Almighty's abode.
Let's enjoy Almighty's beautiful creations
on the way there.
- Mom, look at that.
- Look!
Greetings.
Almighty, it is difficult to sit
and stand too now.
You won't be able to
pay your respects like this.
You really should've asked for Almighty's
forgiveness for not being able to visit.
Bring him with you, Kundan.
- Let's go.
- Let it be.
Come on, let's help him out.
You like your alone time, huh?
Yes.
You know, sometimes you have
to come out of that shell of yours.
You can't face everything
on your own, you know.
You need your loved ones around to help
take that loneliness away sometimes.
It was my own loved
ones who left me alone.
But not everyone is going
to leave you, you know.
Sometimes you can find a new
loved one in another lonely person.
If you want peace,
Just say the Lord's name.
If you want respect,
Try talking less.
If you want money,
Develop a talent.
And if you want love?
Learn some manners, my friend.

Grandma, has Bani always been like this?
No, not at all, son.
She used to be the chattiest
one in our family.
Son, sometimes a single decision
can just ruin your whole life.
And that decision for her
was made by her dad.
Education isn't going to do you much good.
Start preparing for the wedding.
What are you saying, Dad?
I'm studying for the IAS exams.
I want to get an education
and stand on my own two feet.
- I want to make something of myself.
- Enough of that!
Don't be so selfish, Bani.
If you go to Canada,
it'll set up not just your life,
but your two sisters' lives too.
Often, the eldest kids in the family
have to sacrifice their dreams
for the younger ones.
Things were fine for a while.
Then her in-laws insisted
they start planning a baby
because there was a big age gap.
But after some time,
when they couldn't conceive...
I checked Bani's report.
Actually, she has a fertility issue
and won't be able to have kids.
Those words from the doctor
just ended the whole relationship.
They said what use is a daughter-in-law
who can't have kids?
The boy left her and went back to Canada.
After that, it's like she turned to stone.
That's when she needed her dad the most.
But instead of supporting her,
he just got rid of her.
You stay alone, Mom.
If she stays with you,
she can take care of you.
It might even help
her feel a little better.
It's been really tough for us to go out.
People keep questioning us.
We don't even know what to say.
We're just ruined.
This girl's been dealt
a really raw deal in life.
Grandma, have you ever thought
about getting her remarried?
Did you ever ask her about it?
You can't ask dead people, son.
I remember my dad used
to say this proverb when I was a kid:
"Some things are best
done at the right time."
The right thing is only right
if you do it at the right moment.
Sahej Singh, remember this one thing.
Her spirit is already shattered.
Even the smallest push
could just break her completely.
If you have any doubts,
you better change your course.
But if this is truly
what your heart wants,
then say it like it's your birthright.
Fill this painting with vibrant colors.
- One, two, three...
- If this were our village,
people would've just let their cattle
roam around and fill the place with dung.
One, two, three, four.
- Yes.
- Once again.
What the heck have you done here?!
Pick all that up.
Do you think this is a dustbin
or something? Pick it up right now.
Watch your manners, will you?
Who do you think you
are to say anything to me?
I'm the one whose beautiful
view is being ruined by your trash.
What's going on?
Nothing, Brother. It's nothing.
It might be a small thing,
but I think it's a big deal.
I'm just starting to see the world, right?
So I couldn't stand someone
messing up a beautiful place like this.
Brother, I used to think
we only see with our eyes.
I didn't know
you could actually scare
kids with just your eyes.
You go and start talking to strangers.
Do you even know who he is?
You should've asked me
before you went there!
Mom, I didn't know
you could just look away and
distance yourself from your parents' love.
Brother, I used to think
this world must be so beautiful,
even when I couldn't see it.
The people in it must be really nice,
you know?
But these people are
not happy when they succeed.
Rather they are happy to see others fail.
I always used to ask Mom
if I'd ever be able to see this world.
And she'd say, "Of course, son,
if that's what the one
up in the blue skies wants."
When I got my sight back...
I thought the first thing
I should do was thank him.
But how do I even do that?
The smoke from cars, factories,
and all that has turned
the blue skies all gray.
They call the ones who can't see "blind."
But when I started seeing,
I realized those who can
see are also sometimes blind.
It's not the eyes' fault, my dear.
It's us humans who've
stopped taking responsibility.
We pay homage at the Gurudwara
and surrender our responsibilities.
We ask Almighty to take care of them.
Everything has a fixed price these days.
People want to profit
off their son's wedding.
Doctors want money
to save a patient's life.
Commoners want a price to cast their vote,
and politicians want
a price to run the country.
Honestly,
humans and humanity lost their worth
once conscience started
having a price tag.
What are you doing, Granny?
Dear, I just tossed that
orange peel on the floor.
You never know when Almighty might
punish you for something like that.
Aw, let it be, let it be.
No?
So, Gurmukh Singh, where are you at now?
We're on our way.
We'll get there when we get there.
Don't worry.
You are still on the road, huh?
How is Gurdayal doing?
Gurdayal Singh is doing just fine.
Are all the other
passengers alright as well?
Mr. Bachittar Singh, why don't you just
ask how Gurjant and his family are doing?
Come on, why would I ask about Gurjant?
I was just checking in generally,
that's all.
And hey, even though you're older than me,
Mr. Bachittar Singh,
- would you mind if I said something?
- Go ahead.
There's nothing wrong with
asking about the ones we worry about
and the ones we love with all our hearts.
Can I say one more thing too?
Sure, go for it.
You've got Gurjant's number, right?
You could just give him
a call directly, you know.
Brother, Gurjant's
sitting over there crying.
I've seen him do that
a few times before too.
Why is he crying?
What's the point of crying at this point?
He spent 14 years in prison for murder.
Gurjant,
incomplete information
is even worse than a lie, you know.
Sister, the truth is that Sadhu used
to be a joyful man once upon a time.
Mr. Sadhu Singh?
Yes?
I'm really sorry,
but we couldn't save your wife.
Did we have a girl or a boy?
I'm afraid your wife has passed away.
How is that even possible?
Sur... Surjeet?
Control yourself, Sadhu Singh.
Surjeet...?
Sur...
What about my child?
Sadhu had a daughter, Raman.
"I feel fortunate today,"
"I was gifted a daughter."
"All the void in my life,"
"Has been filled by a delicate angel."
But this poor child
was destined for so much pain.
For herself
and her father.
Your daughter has Tetraplegia.
In simple terms,
everything below her neck is lifeless.
She'll be able to talk,
but she'll never be able to use her limbs.
I'll be my daughter's limbs, then.
Sadhu had very easily said,
"I'll be my daughter's limbs."
But it was like finding
Almighty in a stone.
Sadhu was determined
in finding Almighty in a stone.
After that day,
Sadhu became both a mother
and a father to his daughter.
He was her doctor, her nurse, everything.
My daughter just had
a bath with warm water.
A bath with warm water.
A hot pony plucked a pink rose.
A hot pony plucked a pink rose.
Down you go.
So, which frock would my
darling daughter like to wear?
The red one or the yellow one?
I like the red one.
What do you say?
Shall we go with the red one?
I like the red, let's wear the red.
- Raman lost her smile as she got older.
- We'll wear red.
Maybe she knew
she was a big burden
on this world and her father.
My daughter will have
her milk with almonds.
My daughter will have
her milk with almonds.
Here's your milk with almonds, dear.
Here's your milk with almonds.
My daughter will have
her milk with almonds.
Come on, drink it up.
I don't want milk with almonds,
I want Poison!
It has Bournvita in it, dear.
Come on, finish up the milk quickly.
Year after year,
she kept asking for poison.
But Sadhu kept giving
her milk with almonds.
My daughter will have
her milk with almonds.
My daughter will have
her milk with almonds.
My daughter will have
her milk with almonds.
How many times do I have
to tell you I want poison?
Even an enemy wouldn't do this to me!
Why don't you have some mercy on me?
No, dear, don't say that.
I'll get a dress with flowers on them.
My daughter will have
her milk with almonds.
Just to show the world
that you love your daughter,
you cared for me,
a lifeless body, for 14 years, Dad.
I had to bathe my 16-year-old daughter.
I had to change her clothes.
Almighty alone knows...
"You are like a rainbow,"
"You were born in the sky."
"I feel fortunate,"
"That you blessed my home
with your presence."
"What more do I say, my daughter?"
"You are the gem of my life."
"You are my world."
"What more else could I ask for?"
"What more do I say, my daughter?"
For the first time,
Sadhu was in tears,
but his daughter was happy.
Sadhu has brought the poison
not just for his daughter,
but for himself too.
Thank you, Dad.
You're the best dad in the world.
I love you, Dad.
Love you too, my child.
"My daughter, my princess..."
"My daughter, my princess..."
Doctor! Doctor!
Doctor! Doctor!
Doctor! Doctor!
Doctor! Doctor!
Please check Raman!
Raman!
Doctor, she consumed poison.
- Are you okay, dear?
- She had poison.
She had poison, Doctor.
How can she have it on her own?
I gave it to her.
I gave it to her.
Doctor...
Raman!
Raman didn't make it,
and Sadhu ended up getting 14 years
in prison for her murder.
Sadhu served out his sentence,
but when he came out,
neither the world nor even
he could forgive what he'd done.
Wracked with guilt,
Sadhu went to end his own life,
but I stopped him.
"I feel fortunate today,"
"I was gifted a daughter."
"All the void in my life,"
"Has been filled by a delicate angel."
How are you, Mom?
This is your dad speaking, not your mom.
Yes, Dad?
Why, Gurjant?
Aren't you going to ask your
dad how he's doing?
How are you, Dad?
I'm doing alright.
Everyone who walks by has
been stopping to check on us.
They greet us.
I'm sitting on the cot in the courtyard.
Did you need something from me, Dad?
Yes,
Binder came by about using the tractor.
He wants to use it in his fields.
Tell him no, Dad.
Remember how you used
to say his dad doesn't let you
We're not lending him the tractor.
I already told him no, son.
But I'm glad you remembered
that little detail I used to mention.
At least you recall some
of the things I've said before.
When did Binder come
by asking to use the tractor?
Why did you lie to our son?
When there's some tension
between a dad and his son,
we end up looking for any
little reason to talk to each other.
'At least you recall some
of the things I've said before.'
Go on, dear.
Hello, Sadhu Uncle.
You never did tell me
if you'll be my friend or not.
Uncle, you should think
of me as your Raman, you know.
I'm just like her.
Thank you, Dad.
You're the best dad in the world.
Sadhu sir!
How about a smile, huh?
Okay, sir?
Sahej, are you coming back or not?
I'm fed up of your excuses.
Just give it to me straight.
Tell me straight.
Otherwise, I'll hire someone else.
Sir, could you please
give me a little more time?
I promise I'll come back and
get everything sorted out, alright?
The truth is,
I'm kind of in a tough spot right now.
Come on, Sahej Singh,
why are you saying that?
You're going to the Gurudwara,
so go there with all your heart.
Cheer up there, little brother.
Work just never stops.
I was trying to explain that to him,
but I could never get through.
Work just never really stops.
You'll understand that better
once you get to my age, kiddo.
I just don't get it, Dad.
It's because you're confused too,
about what you're trying to explain.
Hey Dad, come play some ping-pong with me.
I'm working right now, son.
You never want to play with me.
Aw, come on, please play with me?
Look, son, at my age,
work is just more important, okay?
When you're older and working yourself,
you'll see I was right about that.
Alright, go on and play now.
So were you right back then,
or are you right now?
Back then,
I just didn't get how important work is.
I was wrong about that.
But now you don't see it either,
and I'm still the one who's wrong?
Oh!
What's wrong, Mr. Khan?
Looks like we've got a flat tire.
You cannot keep going with
a flat like this, Mr. Gurdayal Singh.
I think the real problem is you've
kind of punctured the tires on your
own life's smooth ride, in a way.
Sometimes we just don't appreciate
all that we've really earned, you know?
Sahej's perhaps not happy
because he become what
you wanted him to be.
So then why aren't you happy about it all?
Maybe it's because I spent my whole life
trying to make him understand me,
but I never really tried
to understand him.
You have to stop overthinking everything.
The one who gave you this life
must've already put plenty
of thought into it, don't you think?
Sahej Singh, you've got a lot of resentment
built up in that heart of yours.
Did you ever feel like sharing
any of that with your dad?
I've felt like doing that
a bunch of times,
but I could never actually say it.
I see.
You couldn't bring yourself to say it,
but you sure don't hesitate to blame
your dad for your mom's death, huh?
I doubt I would've said anything if
I hadn't seen him drinking in front of me.
Wait, you were at that party too?
Yeah, I was.
So were you drunk as well?
No, I don't drink.
Good for you.
But if you knew your dad was drunk,
and your mom wasn't comfortable
driving the highway at night,
shouldn't you have been
the one behind the wheel?
Sahej, hey, let's get going, alright?
But everyone's having a good time, Mom.
Deepa said he'll drop me off,
so I'll come home with him.
You know I don't feel comfortable
driving at night, son.
And your dad's drunk again.
Aw come on,
Mom, Dad drinks like that every day.
I don't know what to do here.
It's fine.
Just make sure you get home on time, okay?
Alright.
So who do you actually think
is responsible for your mom's death?
Her drunk husband who
was with her in the car,
or her sober son who was
out partying with his friends
and didn't leave with her?
"What did you gain, oh my dear?"
"By doing as you please here,"
"Your ego is leading you astray,"
"It's your own people you betray."
"Lord knows why, oh my dear,"
"People have become so heartless?"
"Anger solves nothing,"
"It only ruins relationships."
"It only ruins relationships."
"Life's fleeting like a night,"
"Ending with the morning light."
"What did you gain, oh my dear?"
"By doing as you please here,"
"Harsh words like stones don't throw,"
"They don't float,"
"Once spoken, like arrows,
back they can't go."
"Why be rude to anyone, you know?"
"What did you gain, oh my dear?"
"Your ego is leading you astray,"
"It's your own people you betray."
"What did you gain, oh my dear?"
"By doing as you please here,"
"Don't break the heart
in which you dwell,"
"The moon can't bear the pain
of a broken star I can tell,"
"Keep your loved ones
in your heart and swell."
"What did you gain, oh my dear?"
"By doing as you please here,"
"Your ego is leading you astray,
it's your own people you betray."
"What did you gain, oh my dear?"
"By doing as you please here,"
- She's such a lovely girl, isn't she?
- Yeah, she sure is.
And she's really keeping
everyone entertained.
Gurjant Singh,
you're going there to ask Almighty
for a son,
but have you even thanked
Him for giving you this daughter?
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
People only thank Almighty
when they get a son, right?
Almighty gives daughters by mistake,
doesn't He?
We don't cause you nearly
as much trouble as sons do.
We take care of the house for you.
And yet, we're still useless to you.
Oh Mom, you only give birth to daughters
so you can get scolded, don't you?
Come on, Gurmukh,
even after Guru Nanak explained it,
people still don't get it.
"Why call her bad from
whom kings are born?"
Grandma, that's the
tragedy of our society -
all the blessings are meant for the men,
may your husband live long,
may your son live long,
and may your brothers live long.
And all the curses are for the women -
you mother..., you son of..., and so on.
Gurjant, I can guarantee you one thing -
when your bed is set up
by the doorway like your father's,
your daughter will come to check on you,
even if your son never does.
Do you also enjoy being alone sometimes?
Oh no, not at all.
Then why are you standing
here by yourself?
Well, so the one who does like being alone
doesn't feel lonely when
she comes here and stands.
You're pretty good with words,
you know that?
I've just learned
to express myself better.
I always had plenty to say,
but I never actually
put it out there before.
Today I realized that words only really
have meaning once you express them -
they're just thoughts
if you keep them inside.
Bani, I don't know if this
is the right time to say this or not,
but I'm telling you because
I feel like I need to.
I'll accept whatever decision you make.
Bani, I love you.
Sahej...
Aren't you going to wait to hear my reply?
I didn't ask you a question
that needs a reply.
I just told you that I love you.
Whenever you feel like you love me too,
just let me know.
Otherwise, no question needs answering.
"I'm lost in thoughts, you see,"
"I'm lost in thoughts, you see,"
"Of her and me,"
"Of her and me,"
"Of her and me,"
"Of her and me,"
Hello?
Hey Mom, where's Dad?
Why? What happened?
Nothing, Mom.
He's my dad. Can't I just talk to him?
Of course you can, son.
Alright then, let me talk to him.
Okay, I'll go get him for you.
It's Gurjant on the line.
How are you, Dad?
I'm fine.
I just wanted to talk
to you about something.
Have you heard the story
about the cat and the tiger before?
The cat and the tiger story?
Well, it's said that
the cat was the tiger's aunt.
And she taught the tiger
all her tricks and skills.
The tiger thought he knew everything now,
and that he didn't need the cat anymore.
So he tried to attack the cat,
but the cat just jumped
up and climbed a tree.
You see, Dad,
the cat never taught
the tiger how to climb a tree.
Hmm, I'm not quite following, son.
Well, Dad, you taught me
how to climb trees too, right?
What do you mean by that?
After you taught me everything,
I guess I started feeling like
I didn't need you as much anymore.
Like I had learned it all already,
you know?
But Dad,
the truth is,
you can never stop needing your dad.
I've felt that way so many times,
but I just couldn't bring myself to say it.
I don't know if it became
a habit or just stubbornness or what.
But no matter what,
you'll always be my dad.
Sorry, Dad.
Please forgive me.
Alright, Dad, let me tell you something.
That cat, she's still the real
king of that jungle, not the tiger.
No matter how big and
mighty that tiger gets,
he'll never be the true king.
You, Dad, you're the real king here.
You belong in the courtyard,
not hanging out at the doorway.
And when I come back next time,
I want to see you sitting right
back in that same old courtyard,
where you used to sit
when you were younger.
On that bed with the thick, sturdy legs.
"Well said!"
"Well done!"
"Go for it!"
"I am back where I belong,"
"In my brown clothes so strong."
"Incomparable!
You're incomparable, my friend."
"The ground quivers where I tread,"
"Each step like a thread."
"Well said! Well said, Jatta!"
"Joy beyond belief,"
"My eyes shining like a leaf."
"All desires alive anew,
in this world so true."
"Can't let go of the fun,"
"In this colorful world I run."
"Well said! Well said, my friend!"
"Can't let go of the fun,"
"In this colorful world I run."
Hey Bachni,
go get me some tea.
"Lord Almighty..."
"Lord Almighty..."
"Lord Almighty..."
Lord Almighty. Thank you, Lord.
Dad...
No, son,
you don't need to say anything.
This is the final stretch
of the journey for me, Dad.
I feel like I need to say something.
Please forgive me, Dad.
No, no, it's me who should
be asking for your forgiveness.
It wasn't your fault at all.
I'm the one who made it your mistake.
No, son, that's not what I mean.
I say this because I couldn't give
you the quality time you needed from me.
Dad...
You know, sons will always
need their dads, no matter what.
Even when a son is all grown up
and can walk on his own just fine,
he still enjoys watching the world go by
while sitting up on his dad's shoulders.
Mr. Gurdayal,
I think the vow you took 35 years ago
has finally been fulfilled.
Yes.
Don't you feel like you just got
to have a son again?
Sahej Singh,
you're a lucky one, you know that?
People often take back a blessing
of a son and a daughter from the Lord,
but you get to take
your dad back with you.
Just remember one thing, my boy -
never shy away from the
Lord's feet or your dad's love.
"O son, this is your
mother's hope and prayer."
"May you never forget the Lord Almighty,
even for a moment,"
"And always keep the Lord
of the Universe in your heart."
Lord Almighty.
Sahej...
You know...
I'll never be able to give you
a child of your own.
When the grace of the prayer
is bestowed, the child will be born.
Anyway, it's not just the ones who
give birth that are considered parents -
those who raise the
children are parents too.
Who knows, maybe there's
an innocent little soul out there
somewhere who needs parents like us.
"O Nanak, the Lord makes
those meet the True Guru,
whose union is pre-destined."
"I make so many mistakes,"
"There is no end or limit to them."
"There is no end or limit to them."
"I make so many mistakes,"
"There is no end or limit to them."
"There is no end or limit to them."
"O Lord, please be merciful
and forgive me;"
"O Lord, please be merciful
and forgive me;"
"Forgive me;"
"Forgive me;"
"Forgive me;"
"Forgive me;"
"I am a sinner, a great offender."
"I am a sinner, a great offender."
"I am a sinner, a great offender."
Why is the one who makes everyone
else smile has tears in his own eyes?
Salim Uncle said that
whenever you come around,
you only ever pay your respects
from the outside and then leave,
without even going inside.
That day you had asked me a question -
Who do I actually think
is responsible for my mom's death?
Her drunk husband who
was with her in the car,
or her sober son who was
out partying with his friends?
I found the answer to that question.
I'm the one responsible for it,
Mr. Gurmukh.
That's always made me
feel so suffocated inside,
but I feel a lot lighter
after you helped me realize that.
They say happiness
increases when it's shared,
and sadness decreases too.
I don't know what kind
of sorrows you might be hiding,
but if you ever want to,
you can consider me like a little
brother and share them with me.
Sahej,
what you did was just a mistake
that happened without you meaning to.
But what I did...
that was a crime.
We used to live
in a village near Chandigarh,
and then the government took our land.
Now the Jatts who'd never even seen a car
before are driving around in Fortuners!
Do you want to bet
I can get there before you?
I'll just fly there.
Where are you off
to at this hour, Gurmukh?
I told you it's Parminder's birthday.
Our friends are getting
together at the farmhouse
to just cut the cake and then come back.
You're going to come home drunk again,
aren't you?
Listen, you have to promise
me you won't drink this time.
What? Why should I promise that?
You're so strange,
you always do this to me.
What do you mean, "always do this"?
Have some shame,
you come home drunk every single day!
But come on,
Lord's finally blessed us with some money.
Let me have a little fun, will you?
You're always complaining.
The farmhouse is close by, I'll
be back right after they cut the cake.
Come back right after they
cut the cake. Don't come home drunk.
- Yes.
- Look at him.
He never listens to us, does he?
He is impossible.
Guri, no.
Guri, that's enough.
Yes!
Where are you going?
I'm leaving.
I'll drop you, my love.
Look at the state you are in.
You can't drive like this!
Don't worry, I only start driving
after I've had a bottle and a half.
I don't have a death wish, you know.
Death can't take you
away from me, my love.
Alright, see you guys. Come on, let's go.
Okay, bye.
We have so much,
all thanks to the grace of Almighty.
We have more than we can count.
In fact, another 2.5 acres of our land
is going to be acquired
for that airport project.
Guru, please keep your eyes
on the road and drive carefully.
Don't worry, don't worry.
Tell your dad we'll have
a destination wedding -
I'll come get you in a helicopter!
Just please keep your eyes
forward and drive properly,
or you'll end up hitting someone.
You'll feel like you're in heaven.
How are you feeling, Gurmukh?
Simran...?
Simran...?
I don't have a death wish, you know.
Death can't take you
away from me, my love.
Almighty punished me, Mr. Khan.
My mom kept warning me,
but I didn't listen to my mom.
How am I ever going to be able
to face her again after this?
You don't have a mother to face anymore,
my brother.
This is a limit.
Gurmukh isn't answering his phone.
Ah, it's alright.
I'm sure he'll be back soon.
Do you know what time it is?
He said he'd be back right
after they cut the cake, didn't he?
I'm really starting to
worry about him, you know.
Come on, let's go check on him.
Parminder's farmhouse isn't too far away.
Chill, baby. Chill!
Tell your dad we'll have
a destination wedding.
He never answers my calls.
He always troubles us.
Gurmukh, promise me,
you won't come home drunk.
You've to pull it together.
What have I done?!
I really have ruined everything.
- Alcohol ruined my family.
- Pull yourself together, Gurmukh.
- Get a hold of yourself, my brother.
- Why did you even bother saving me, huh?
Get a hold of yourself.
I want to die.
Please, Mr. Khan, I want to die!
I want to die!
But you can't just die that easily,
Gurmukh Singh.
Three people lost their
lives because of you,
and now you want to die and
get away from the consequences?
You're going to have to live with
this burden for the rest of your life.
For the rest of your life.
I feel lighter after apologizing
to my dad.
Today, after a long time,
I will sleep peacefully at night.
If you want to be able
to sleep peacefully at night,
you should try apologizing to our Father,
our Lord too.
I just can't find the courage, Sahej.
I just don't have it in me to go
in there and look Him straight in the eye.
So really, how am I supposed
to go about apologizing?
You don't have to look Him directly
in the eye to apologize, Mr. Gurmukh.
And if He decides to forgive you,
I'm sure He'll make a way
for you to be able to meet His gaze.

Brother?
I don't care if you have a brother
or a sister anymore, my dear.
All I want is a healthy child
who can make their grandparents proud.
"I make so many mistakes,"
"There is no end or limit to them."
'Dear Lord Almighty, you're limitless.'
'You're always so forgiving, Lord.'
'You answered my prayer.'

Mr. Gurmukh,
what prayer would you like to offer?
Pray for everyone's wellbeing.
There is one Lord. All Victory belongs to Lord.
A prayer composed by Guru Gobind Singh:
Having first involved the dynamic power
of Lord, call on Guru Nanak.
Then on Angad Guru, Amar Das
and Ram Das, may they ever protect us.
Then call on Arjan,
and Hargobind, holy Har Rai.
Remember Holy Har Krishan,
whose sight dispels all sorrows.
Then remember Teg Bahadur
by whose remembrance the nine treasures
come hurrying to ones home.
May the tenth king, Guru Gobind Singh
be ever on our side.
Let us now turn our thoughts
to the visible embodiment of the ten Gurus,
the teachings of Guru Granth Sahib
and utter:
Glory be to Lord Almighty!
Utter:
Glory be to Lord Almighty!
Lord Almighty, the Helper of the helpless,
the Strength of the weak,
the Supporter of the fallen, the shelter
of the shelterless, the true father of all.
Dear Lord Almighty,
we thank you a million times.
You gave us life,
breath,
and this world.
We request you to
forgive all our faults,
and keep us forever linked to You.
Grant to the Sikhs: the gift of faith,
the gift of communication with Lord Almighty.
Accept the devotees who seek your refuge.
Take every step into account.
We pray for everyone's wellbeing.
Through Guru Nanak,
may Your Name be exalted and
may all of mankind prosper according
to your Will.
Blessed are those
who take the name of Lord.
Yes, sir?
Listen to me carefully.
Hold on a second, sir.
Let me speak first.
I'm actually in India
right now with my dad.
And I'm having the
best time of my life here.
I'm not sure when I'll be coming
back or how long I'll be staying,
to be honest.
If you want, you can go ahead
and hire someone else in the meantime.
No, no, Sahej. There's no need for that.
I can understand. Family is important.
Take care of your father.
Okay?
Thank you, sir.
No problem, Sahej.
Bye.
- Mr. Gurmukh,
- Come, dear.
I can't seem to find
Mr. Sadhu Singh anywhere.
Oh, there he is!
Mr. Khan,
I'm going to be sticking around here.
I'm going to be sticking
around here from now on.
I didn't get you.
Uh, let's just say I only bought
a one-way ticket.
Almighty has taken me under His wing.
Next time you come,
you'll definitely find Sadhu Singh here.
Bless you.
- May He be with you.
- May Almighty be with you.
Mr. Sadhu Singh, you know,
we never really got to sit
on our dad's lap after we grew up.
But you, you've managed to sit
on the lap of the Father of all souls.
You are fortunate.
Take care,
and please remember us in your prayers.
Lord Almighty!
Blessed Guru Nanak!
This is great.
Thank you, Lord.
Thank you very much.
Thank you, Almighty.
Dear, the one who forgives
is greater than the one who errs.
And the one who owns up
to their mistakes...
they're even greater than that.
My child,
your dad regrets his mistake.
