Hey, Nandu Bill Gates!
Do you know who he is?

It's the one next to India Gate.
You moron! He's a man!
Worth millions and
millions of dollars!
So?
You'll become just like him.
You're about to receive a huge treasure!
-Is that what he said?
-Yes.
That too in English.
Does anybody lie in English?
No.
-Let me hear it again.
-Okay.

Nandu uncle, please give
us the donation money.
Rajaram!
Nandu has gone to the city for purchases.
Who are you?
I am his aunt.
Uncle's aunt?
But uncle never had an uncle
in the first place.
He had a distant uncle.
I am that distant aunt.
Okay. Tell uncle that he is invited to
Tikku's place for the ceremonial prayers.
-He should definitely come.
-Sure thing!
He will definitely come.
And distant aunt, you must also come.
Okay.
For sure I will.

You said that it got over.
You runt!
Wait, you scoundrel!
Wait till I get you!
Stop, Tikku!
Don't run!
Hey, stop!
Listen.
Hey, stop!
Tikku!
Stop, you rascal!
Come take the binoculars!
You wanted them, right?
-Come and get it.
-I'll get you, you rascal!
Come on! Take the binoculars!
You want the binoculars, right?
Come on and get it.
Come on.
Who the hell?
The wretch has borrowed
164 rupees worth of
biscuits and toffees from this shop.
First he said, "I don't have money
but I can give you some pickle."
I agreed.
I tasted the pickle.
It was mind blowing!
Then he said he he'd
deliver it bit by bit.
I agreed to that as well.
Then one fine day he announces
that he has run out of pickle.
When a fresh lot is made in
spring I will bring some more.
I agreed to that as well.
But last night I caught him red handed.
Now I don't want his damn pickle anymore.
Get 164 rupees and take the binoculars.
But uncle, the binoculars
are very expensive.
So what?
If his father doesn't pay up,
I'll get the money from my mother.
Fair enough.
Now give the binoculars back.
"Now give the binoculars back."
First my money, otherwise no honey.
Everyone knows that he
loves giving credit
so that he can swindle you later.
Moron!
If you're so concerned
hand me your lucky charm
and you can have the binoculars back.
Damn! There goes the milk!
I'll slice off your ears
and stick them on your shoes.
Nandu! Binoculars!
Go catch him! Get it back!
Stop!
Where will he go?
Come and get me now!
If we give you
extra half liter of milk daily
your debt will be covered in next 15 days.
Alright?
Fine. Till then I'll keep the binoculars.
I won't give them.
"I won't give them."
Naughty!
Neelu! Gauri! Don't go far away!
Otherwise, I'll hit you.
Look! There it is!
It was right there!
That's my umbrella.
It's been specially made.
Do you understand Japanese?
That's my umbrella.
Whats that?
What is this?
Tell me, what is this?
I don't know. I've never seen this before.
But they look like bear claws.
This is truly amazing!
I want it!
Can we exchange?
What do you want?
Will you exchange it for money?
Take it.
I have more.
Take it.
Is this enough?
I have chocolates too.
More chocolates.
Look at all these chocolates!
I want the locket!
I really want it!
Please give it to me!
Hey, Nandu!
The foreigners don't even
grant death for free.
How come they gifted
such a huge umbrella?
Drink water.
Let it be, Mom!
It's their umbrella. It's up to
them to gift it as they want.
Why are you getting so worked up?
Biniya.
Where is your locket?
Mom, pass me the curry.
Where is the locket?
Oh, God!
You sold the locket
for that umbrella!
-Do you know how precious that locket was?
-Mom!
She's just a child.
Anyway, the bear claw
didn't drop out of heaven.
I was the one who got it.
I'll get another one.
She'll go sell it again.
Will you sell it?
No. She won't, right?
She won't sell it.
Forget it!
What's done is done.
If you spoil her this way,
she won't ever find a groom for herself.
Don't cry.
We'll find you a nice locket
and an even nicer groom.
Leelavati!
Lily!
Rajaram, get tea for the tourists!
There you go with your show-off!
Come on.
Samosa five rupees.
Try this new candy.
I don't want it.
Why?
"Borrowing on credit destroys love."
Is that what's written?
Rajaram!
Rajaram.
Come here, dear!
Just read out what's written.
"Borrowing on credit spreads love."
How far will you run, you wretch!
You'll come back here itself.
How can I take money from
you, Biniya darling?
Here, have this candy.
Neat umbrella!
It must be giving good shelter.
But isn't it too large for you?
I'll you two toffees and two biscuits
everyday for the next six months.
One potato pie with
carrot pickle every week.
Sparklers for Diwali and
a spray gun for Holi.
Half ounce of ripe berries,
one packet of jujubes
and to top it all, ten raw mangoes.
Do we have a deal?
No.
But what will you do with
such an oversized umbrella?
I'll make pickle out of it.
Chaudhary, sure the color won't fade off?
Don't you Chaudhary me dammit!
I'm your uncle!
Give me some tobacco.
Give me some tobacco.
Okay, Uncle. The color
won't fade off, right?
-You rascal!
-Okay, uncle. Sorry.
Sorry, uncle here's the tobacco.
Sure the color won't fade off, uncle?
The skin may come off your bones
but the color won't fade off the cloth.
What took you so long, moron?
I had been there itself.
Where did you steal this fancy coat from?
Where did you steal this fancy coat from?
125 rupees.
Is this an umbrella?
No, I think it's a radio.
No, what I mean is it's not
the kind of umbrella I want.
What kind of umbrella do you want?
This exquisite
multicolored
as if the sky
has been pierced
by an exquisite spear.
Hold on.
Is this what you are looking for?
This is exactly what I want.
This is a Japanese umbrella.
We'll have to bring it in from Delhi.
Get it from Delhi?
It will take about a week.
But I'll need the entire
amount in advance.
How much?
Only 2500.
-How much?
-2500 rupees!
Hold this.
One, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten.
Here you go. 10 notes of 50.
Not ten. It's going to
cost you 50 notes of 50!
Stop the bus.
Biniya!
I saw an umbrella just
like yours in the city.
Take the balloons.
He was charging 150 rupees.
I thought that I had gone mad.
If you want to splurge,
splurge on Biniya.
So, I decided that
I will give you five notes of 10.
One, two, three
four
and all of five
in exchange for the umbrella.
That way both of us will be happy!
What say?
This umbrella will be mine.
Here.
Take this money.
Take your balloons along.

Between Bush and Shariff
proved the point.
Mom!
It was a big snake
Like a heavyweight wrestler.
Frankly speaking,
I almost got scared.
And then charged Biniya,
brandishing her umbrella.
Immediately, the snake
fled like the devil
must have caught its breath
only after reaching the den.
Champ Is it a real umbrella
or Rani Lakshmi Bai of Jhansi?
My heavenly blue umbrella
My heavenly blue umbrella my
Flight to the skies umbrella
My swinging wayward umbrella
My flying umbrella
Seems like my flying umbrella
It flies now, runs
Then runs now, jogs then
My whimsical playful umbrella
Stole a piece of heaven
Dressed it up in wood
I now clasp the sky in my hands
Look at me preen and stroll
Like a delicate Madame's loll
The envy of all and sundry
A peg now, woof!
A stick at other times
A stick now, woof! A wand then
Always up to some mischief,
My impish umbrella
Uncle, of what use is
that oversized umbrella?
Of what use is a rainbow in the sky?
Of what use is a paper
boat floating in the water?
Of what use is watching
the sun set behind the hills?
Of what use is a good-for-nothing
wretch like you?
One cannot put a price
on peace for the soul.
That umbrella and me are
soul mates from some previous birth.
Have known the rains forever
Have longed for the waters forever
Seems like a union of long past
It might want to fly
Again go meet the skies again
Oh it's innocent to
The ways of the world
It drowns now, swims then
Topples over, falls again
It drowns now, swims then
Topples over, falls again
At times it is mischievous
My blue little sky umbrella!
The flying umbrella
Seems like my flying umbrella
Seems like my flying umbrella
Seems like my flying umbrella
Sometimes it flies,
Sometimes it runs
Sometimes it runs,
Sometimes it speeds away
Go to sleep, Nandu. Don't
regret over that umbrella.
How does it matter to you
whether I sleep or I don't?
I'm your only chance
at getting that umbrella.
Do you even know what
2500 rupees look like?
Rupees?
Are you planning to pluck
the umbrella off a tree?
How about I flick it?
Provided you increase
my wages by 27 rupees.
12 rupees is all you'll get.
Okay, let's settle it at 28.
Fair Deal?
I attended school just
once in my life, by chance.
I learned only one lesson
which I haven't forgotten yet.
What?
It's a sin to steal,
you'll become a snake's meal
Go to sleep.
7x2=14.
7x2=14.
8x2=16.
8x2=16.
9x2=18.
9x2=18.
10x2=20.
10x2=20.
Have your meals.
What about you?
I am not hungry!
Fine. I'm not eating either.
Hey, Leelavati
Why don't you understand?
Biniya won't sell.
And we can't afford to buy a new one.
What do you want me to do?
Shall I steal the umbrella?
Hey, Neelu Gauri!
Let's go. It's late.
It's going to rain.
Hurry up!
How much will you graze?
You are harassing me a lot.
Come on. Look, there's thunder.
Look
Brother Bijju!
This is really sad, Biniya.
Well, it stayed with you for the
time it was destined to be.
Right?
We are all helpless
before God's will.
Here, eat something.
This won't do, dear.
Be a good girl and eat something.
Don't disrespect your food.
Come on, eat.
No, child.
Let's go to the outpost.
You'll feel better.
Guess what?
I caught a dangerous
bicycle thief the other day.
Yes!
Let's go to visit him.
If you continue to be
stubborn like this
we'll have take you to the
city for an injection.
That too in the stomach.
Nowadays, you get
injections of doughnuts and
pancakes as well in the market.
Understand?
There was a
strong breeze that day.
The umbrella must have
fallen into the ravine.
There are peacocks in the
jungle and not thieves.
By chance!
There are peacocks in the

There was quite a

Open the door.
What happened?
We've come to search the place.
-What?
-My umbrella has been stolen.
Police raid at Nandu's shop!
Police raid at Nandu's shop!
Police raid at Nandu's shop!
Do you suspect anyone else, Biniya?
Maybe he has hidden it somewhere else.
There it is!
Understand?
Am I the only one to
understand everything?
At this age you strip me of everything.
And then, you expect me to understand?
Is the word "thief"
tattooed on my forehead?
Nandkishore is an umbrella thief!
Is it?
Here, take it.
Read out my passbook.
You're literate, right?
I am not a pauper!
Nandkishore Khatri
can plant a field of
umbrellas if he wants, understand?
Today, in front of the whole village
I take a vow.
Till the day I get my own umbrella,
I refuse to touch any pickle.
Scram!
It's snowing on the far hills
Cold snow cascading
Rolling down my face
It's snowing on the far hills
Cold snow cascading
Rolling down my face
My beloved!
Oh my beloved return home to me
Oh my beloved return home to me
The mountains are full of snow
Cold snow in the mountains
Rolling down my face
Days seem shorter now
Like yesterday's clothes
Which rip apart bit by bit
Days seem shorter now,
Like yesterday's clothes
Which rip apart bit by bit
The nights seem endless
When you are away my life
Ebbs away bit by bit
My beloved!
My beloved!
Return home to me
My beloved!
Return home to me
Good morning, Uncle!
12 rupees.
Here is your 12 rupees.
Hi, champ.
How are you?
All good.
-Two liters.
-50 rupees.
-Two liters.
-Yes. Two liters for 50 rupees.
What rate are you selling this oil at?
How much is half times 50?
But you just sold it
to Chander for 12 rupees.
For him, the price remains 12 rupees.
Let go my throat. It will
be very bad if you don't.
Champ
Pick on somebody your own size.
Why are you being unfair, Uncle?
Will you drag me to the
town square and shoot me?
Anyway, your sister has
connections in the police.
She can get anything done.
Go on. Take your champ
to the police station.
Move your hands further up here.
What? Coat? My uncle
got it for 200 rupees from America.
Consider it your own, master.
Touch it.
You can borrow it on hire anytime.
And Leelavati, I dare you to go
home this time without the umbrella.
Good Lord!
No one is worst than me.
You are too kind.
Don't mention it.
Have it.
Have it, please.
Okay, I'll take a leave!
Wait a minute.
Lily!
Khatri Sir is leaving!
How dare he leave!
Cauliflower pickle in fresh mustard oil.
You are just too much, Leelavati!
Khatri.
Do you stay under the
umbrella the whole day?
No, the umbrella remains
above me the whole day.
Hey.
Khatri Sir carries it everywhere.
Fool!
Wait till you come back to the shop.
Red bird
Oh red bird
You are a wanderer
Oh red bird
I can't do it, Chief.
How can a fool like me preside
over the wrestling championship?
How can you even think of it?
The whole town is ashamed about
wrongfully accusing you of theft.
Give us a chance to make it up to you.
If you don't agree, there
won't be any championship this year.
Fine. I'll do as you say.
But, there's one condition.
The refreshments for the
wrestlers will be provided by me.
At half the price!
It shouldn't tear. Watch it!
Brother! Why are you not listening to me?
Hold on!
It's really special!
Throws attitude whenever it wants.
I am going to the city just to get
you fixed. Please shut yourself.
It doesn't shut like that.
No. It never came from Delhi.
As far as I remember,
it was a local dispatch.
Where's that?
There you go!
Chaudhary Dyers, Temple Road,
12 Stones, Bannikhet.
The motorcade runs through town
The motorcade runs through town
Do you dye umbrellas out here?
No!
What about batons?
Bijju!
Bijju!
Bijju!
He, who is strong of mind,
is the strongest of them all.
I have wrestled all my life
with life itself.
I have been working since I was eight.
The coal business today
then worked at the washers.
Sometimes I toiled as a farmhand.
Later as a carpenter's apprentice.
So, it has been a constant struggle.
I had no time to even
get married, by chance.
I used to wash dishes in
the same shop I own today.
Like my friend Rajaram here
I have seen the all colors of life.
The all colors of life.
Khatri has flung mud in the
face of the entire village.
Not only did he steal,
he lied to everyone shamelessly.
The bench has decided that
because of this heinous crime
he should be banished from the village.
We beg Nandu to find some
other village to settle in.
The jury also orders the entire village
to henceforth boycott
Nandkishore Khatri's shop.
Congratulations to dear
Biniya on finding the umbrella
and loads of good wishes.
Stop the bus!
Tea and snacks on the house.
Everything for free.
Please stop the bus.
Damn you!
Damn all of you!
Four toffees free with every two biscuits!
-We don't want any.
-Listen to me
Hey, Tikku! Have this biscuit.
I don't want it.
It's free for you. Take it.
I can't. My mom will beat me up.
Four toffees free with every two biscuits!
Four toffees free with every two biscuits!
Nandkishore Umbrella thief.
Nandkishore Umbrella thief.

-You
-Nandkishore Umbrella thief.
Nandkishore Umbrella thief.
Umbrella thief!
Nandkishore Umbrella thief.
You
Who's there?
Who's there?
Who's there?
What punishment am I getting?
Where are you?
It's a bear claw!
I will make a locket out of it.
Khatri, why don't you
move to some other village?
Which village will
shelter a thief like me?
This village is my own.
So what if they loathe me.
Now there is only one
final journey left to take.
What's with the song and dance?
Has there been a birth in the village?
No, there's a wedding.
Whose?
The village chief's son.
Chandu's?
Our Chander's getting married!
Silly lad couldn't even tie
his pajamas till yesterday!
Look
How time flies!
Line me up for a shave too.
I need to look decent.
Else the bride's family will think
I've escaped from the zoo.
Try and shave the pricks
off his conscience as well.
Why has the music stopped? Play it!
Have you been invited?
Family members don't need invitations.
Chander's like my own son.
Chander Look, what I got for you
You'll be thrilled to bits. Look here.
A bear claw charm!
Specially made for you. Take it.
Go on.
Go on
Be warned chief.
If the claw turns out to be stolen,
the bear might come knocking!
Got any biscuits?
Don't you give four toffees
free with every two biscuits, Uncle?
The tea is boiling over!
Wait, Biniya!
Wait.
Your umbrella
you forgot it at the shop.
This is not mine.
By chance.
How much is this for?
And this?
Haven't you heard of Bill Gates?
Worth millions and millions of rupees!
Yes, multi-billionaire.
UMBRELLA TEA STALL
Bill Gates!
Hey, Nandu Bill Gates!
Do you know who he is?
Of course, I know Bill Gates!
It's the one next to India Gate.
You moron! He's a man!
Worth millions and
millions of dollars!
So?
You'll become just like him.
You're about to receive a huge treasure!
-Is that what he said?
-Yes.
That too in English.
Does anybody lie in English?
No.
-Let me hear it again.
-Okay.

He had a distant uncle.
I am that distant aunt.
Okay. Tell uncle that he is invited to

-He should definitely come.
-Sure thing!

And distant aunt, you must also come.
Okay.

Who the hell?
The wretch has borrowed
164 rupees worth of
biscuits and toffees from this shop.
First he said, "I don't have money
but I can give you some pickle."
I agreed.
I tasted the pickle.
It was mind blowing!
Then he said he he'd
deliver it bit by bit.
I agreed to that as well.
Then one fine day he announces
that he has run out of pickle.
When a fresh lot is made in

I agreed to that as well.
But last night I caught him red handed.
Now I don't want his damn pickle anymore.
Get 164 rupees and take the binoculars.
But uncle, the binoculars
are very expensive.
So what?
If his father doesn't pay up,
I'll get the money from my mother.
Fair enough.
Now give the binoculars back.
"Now give the binoculars back."

Nandu! Binoculars!
Go catch him! Get it back!
Stop!
Where will he go?
Come and get me now!
If we give you
extra half liter of milk daily
your debt will be covered in next 15 days.
Alright?
Fine. Till then I'll keep the binoculars.
I won't give them.
"I won't give them."
Naughty!
Neelu! Gauri! Don't go far away!
Otherwise, I'll hit you.
Look! There it is!
It was right there!
That's my umbrella.
It's been specially made.
Do you understand Japanese?
That's my umbrella.
Whats that?
What is this?
Tell me, what is this?
I don't know. I've never seen this before.
But they look like bear claws.
This is truly amazing!
I want it!
Can we exchange?
What do you want?
Will you exchange it for money?
Take it.
I have more.
Take it.
Is this enough?
I have chocolates too.
More chocolates.
Look at all these chocolates!
I want the locket!
I really want it!
Please give it to me!
Hey, Nandu!
The foreigners don't even
grant death for free.
How come they gifted
such a huge umbrella?
Drink water.
Let it be, Mom!
It's their umbrella. It's up to
them to gift it as they want.
Why are you getting so worked up?
Biniya.
Where is your locket?
Mom, pass me the curry.
Where is the locket?
Oh, God!
You sold the locket
for that umbrella!
-Do you know how precious that locket was?
-Mom!
She's just a child.
Anyway, the bear claw
didn't drop out of heaven.
I was the one who got it.
I'll get another one.
She'll go sell it again.
Will you sell it?
No. She won't, right?
She won't sell it.
Forget it!
What's done is done.
If you spoil her this way,
she won't ever find a groom for herself.
Don't cry.
We'll find you a nice locket
and an even nicer groom.
Leelavati!
Lily!
Rajaram, get tea for the tourists!
There you go with your show-off!
Come on.
Samosa five rupees.
Try this new candy.
I don't want it.
Why?
"Borrowing on credit destroys love."
Is that what's written?
Rajaram!
Rajaram.
Come here, dear!
Just read out what's written.
"Borrowing on credit spreads love."
How far will you run, you wretch!
You'll come back here itself.
How can I take money from
you, Biniya darling?
Here, have this candy.
Neat umbrella!
It must be giving good shelter.
But isn't it too large for you?
I'll you two toffees and two biscuits
everyday for the next six months.
One potato pie with
carrot pickle every week.
Sparklers for Diwali and
a spray gun for Holi.
Half ounce of ripe berries,
one packet of jujubes
and to top it all, ten raw mangoes.
Do we have a deal?
No.
But what will you do with
such an oversized umbrella?
I'll make pickle out of it.
Chaudhary, sure the color won't fade off?
Don't you Chaudhary me dammit!
I'm your uncle!
Give me some tobacco.
Give me some tobacco.
Okay, Uncle. The color
won't fade off, right?
-You rascal!
-Okay, uncle. Sorry.
Sorry, uncle here's the tobacco.
Sure the color won't fade off, uncle?
The skin may come off your bones
but the color won't fade off the cloth.
What took you so long, moron?
I had been there itself.
Where did you steal this fancy coat from?
Where did you steal this fancy coat from?
125 rupees.
Is this an umbrella?
No, I think it's a radio.
No, what I mean is it's not
the kind of umbrella I want.
What kind of umbrella do you want?
This exquisite
multicolored
as if the sky
has been pierced
by an exquisite spear.
Hold on.
Is this what you are looking for?
This is exactly what I want.
This is a Japanese umbrella.
We'll have to bring it in from Delhi.
Get it from Delhi?
It will take about a week.
But I'll need the entire
amount in advance.
How much?
Only 2500.
-How much?
-2500 rupees!
Hold this.
One, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten.
Here you go. 10 notes of 50.
Not ten. It's going to
cost you 50 notes of 50!
Stop the bus.
Biniya!
I saw an umbrella just
like yours in the city.
Take the balloons.
He was charging 150 rupees.
I thought that I had gone mad.
If you want to splurge,
splurge on Biniya.
So, I decided that
I will give you five notes of 10.
One, two, three
four
and all of five
in exchange for the umbrella.
That way both of us will be happy!
What say?
This umbrella will be mine.
Here.
Take this money.
Take your balloons along.

Mom!
It was a big snake
Like a heavyweight wrestler.
Frankly speaking,
I almost got scared.
And then charged Biniya,
brandishing her umbrella.
Immediately, the snake
fled like the devil
must have caught its breath
only after reaching the den.
Champ Is it a real umbrella
or Rani Lakshmi Bai of Jhansi?
My heavenly blue umbrella
My heavenly blue umbrella my
Flight to the skies umbrella
My swinging wayward umbrella
My flying umbrella
Seems like my flying umbrella
It flies now, runs
Then runs now, jogs then
My whimsical playful umbrella
Stole a piece of heaven
Dressed it up in wood
I now clasp the sky in my hands
Look at me preen and stroll
Like a delicate Madame's loll
The envy of all and sundry
A peg now, woof!
A stick at other times
A stick now, woof! A wand then
Always up to some mischief,
My impish umbrella
Uncle, of what use is
that oversized umbrella?
Of what use is a rainbow in the sky?
Of what use is a paper
boat floating in the water?
Of what use is watching
the sun set behind the hills?
Of what use is a good-for-nothing
wretch like you?
One cannot put a price
on peace for the soul.
That umbrella and me are
soul mates from some previous birth.
Have known the rains forever
Have longed for the waters forever
Seems like a union of long past
It might want to fly
Again go meet the skies again
Oh it's innocent to
The ways of the world
It drowns now, swims then
Topples over, falls again
It drowns now, swims then
Topples over, falls again
At times it is mischievous
My blue little sky umbrella!
The flying umbrella
Seems like my flying umbrella
Seems like my flying umbrella
Seems like my flying umbrella
Sometimes it flies,
Sometimes it runs
Sometimes it runs,
Sometimes it speeds away
Go to sleep, Nandu. Don't
regret over that umbrella.
How does it matter to you
whether I sleep or I don't?
I'm your only chance
at getting that umbrella.
Do you even know what
2500 rupees look like?
Rupees?
Are you planning to pluck
the umbrella off a tree?
How about I flick it?
Provided you increase
my wages by 27 rupees.
12 rupees is all you'll get.
Okay, let's settle it at 28.
Fair Deal?
I attended school just
once in my life, by chance.
I learned only one lesson
which I haven't forgotten yet.
What?
It's a sin to steal,
you'll become a snake's meal
Go to sleep.

Have your meals.
What about you?
I am not hungry!
Fine. I'm not eating either.
Hey, Leelavati
Why don't you understand?
Biniya won't sell.
And we can't afford to buy a new one.
What do you want me to do?
Shall I steal the umbrella?
Hey, Neelu Gauri!
Let's go. It's late.
It's going to rain.
Hurry up!
How much will you graze?
You are harassing me a lot.
Come on. Look, there's thunder.
Look
Brother Bijju!
This is really sad, Biniya.
Well, it stayed with you for the
time it was destined to be.
Right?
We are all helpless
before God's will.
Here, eat something.
This won't do, dear.
Be a good girl and eat something.
Don't disrespect your food.
Come on, eat.
No, child.
Let's go to the outpost.
You'll feel better.
Guess what?
I caught a dangerous
bicycle thief the other day.
Yes!
Let's go to visit him.
If you continue to be
stubborn like this
we'll have take you to the
city for an injection.
That too in the stomach.
Nowadays, you get
injections of doughnuts and
pancakes as well in the market.
Understand?
There was a
strong breeze that day.
The umbrella must have
fallen into the ravine.
There are peacocks in the
jungle and not thieves.
By chance!

What happened?
We've come to search the place.
-What?
-My umbrella has been stolen.
Police raid at Nandu's shop!
Police raid at Nandu's shop!
Police raid at Nandu's shop!
Do you suspect anyone else, Biniya?
Maybe he has hidden it somewhere else.
There it is!
Understand?
Am I the only one to
understand everything?
At this age you strip me of everything.
And then, you expect me to understand?
Is the word "thief"
tattooed on my forehead?
Nandkishore is an umbrella thief!
Is it?
Here, take it.
Read out my passbook.
You're literate, right?
I am not a pauper!
Nandkishore Khatri
can plant a field of
umbrellas if he wants, understand?
Today, in front of the whole village
I take a vow.
Till the day I get my own umbrella,
I refuse to touch any pickle.
Scram!
It's snowing on the far hills
Cold snow cascading
Rolling down my face
It's snowing on the far hills
Cold snow cascading
Rolling down my face
My beloved!
Oh my beloved return home to me
Oh my beloved return home to me
The mountains are full of snow
Cold snow in the mountains
Rolling down my face
Days seem shorter now
Like yesterday's clothes
Which rip apart bit by bit
Days seem shorter now,
Like yesterday's clothes
Which rip apart bit by bit
The nights seem endless
When you are away my life
Ebbs away bit by bit
My beloved!
My beloved!
Return home to me
My beloved!
Return home to me
Good morning, Uncle!
12 rupees.
Here is your 12 rupees.
Hi, champ.
How are you?
All good.
-Two liters.
-50 rupees.
-Two liters.
-Yes. Two liters for 50 rupees.
What rate are you selling this oil at?
How much is half times 50?
But you just sold it
to Chander for 12 rupees.
For him, the price remains 12 rupees.
Let go my throat. It will
be very bad if you don't.
Champ
Pick on somebody your own size.
Why are you being unfair, Uncle?
Will you drag me to the
town square and shoot me?
Anyway, your sister has
connections in the police.
She can get anything done.
Go on. Take your champ
to the police station.
Move your hands further up here.
What? Coat? My uncle
got it for 200 rupees from America.
Consider it your own, master.
Touch it.
You can borrow it on hire anytime.
And Leelavati, I dare you to go
home this time without the umbrella.
Good Lord!
No one is worst than me.
You are too kind.
Don't mention it.
Have it.
Have it, please.
Okay, I'll take a leave!
Wait a minute.
Lily!
Khatri Sir is leaving!
How dare he leave!
Cauliflower pickle in fresh mustard oil.
You are just too much, Leelavati!
Khatri.
Do you stay under the
umbrella the whole day?
No, the umbrella remains
above me the whole day.
Hey.
Khatri Sir carries it everywhere.
Fool!
Wait till you come back to the shop.
Red bird
Oh red bird
You are a wanderer
Oh red bird
I can't do it, Chief.
How can a fool like me preside
over the wrestling championship?
How can you even think of it?
The whole town is ashamed about
wrongfully accusing you of theft.
Give us a chance to make it up to you.
If you don't agree, there
won't be any championship this year.
Fine. I'll do as you say.
But, there's one condition.
The refreshments for the
wrestlers will be provided by me.
At half the price!
It shouldn't tear. Watch it!
Brother! Why are you not listening to me?
Hold on!
It's really special!
Throws attitude whenever it wants.
I am going to the city just to get
you fixed. Please shut yourself.
It doesn't shut like that.
No. It never came from Delhi.
As far as I remember,
it was a local dispatch.
Where's that?
There you go!
Chaudhary Dyers, Temple Road,
12 Stones, Bannikhet.
The motorcade runs through town
The motorcade runs through town
Do you dye umbrellas out here?
No!
What about batons?
Bijju!
Bijju!
Bijju!
He, who is strong of mind,
is the strongest of them all.
I have wrestled all my life
with life itself.
I have been working since I was eight.
The coal business today
then worked at the washers.
Sometimes I toiled as a farmhand.
Later as a carpenter's apprentice.
So, it has been a constant struggle.
I had no time to even
get married, by chance.
I used to wash dishes in
the same shop I own today.
Like my friend Rajaram here
I have seen the all colors of life.
The all colors of life.
Khatri has flung mud in the
face of the entire village.
Not only did he steal,
he lied to everyone shamelessly.
The bench has decided that
because of this heinous crime
he should be banished from the village.
We beg Nandu to find some
other village to settle in.
The jury also orders the entire village
to henceforth boycott
Nandkishore Khatri's shop.
Congratulations to dear
Biniya on finding the umbrella
and loads of good wishes.
Stop the bus!
Tea and snacks on the house.
Everything for free.
Please stop the bus.
Damn you!
Damn all of you!
Four toffees free with every two biscuits!
-We don't want any.
-Listen to me
Hey, Tikku! Have this biscuit.
I don't want it.
It's free for you. Take it.
I can't. My mom will beat me up.
Four toffees free with every two biscuits!
Four toffees free with every two biscuits!

You
Who's there?
Who's there?
Who's there?
What punishment am I getting?
Where are you?
It's a bear claw!
I will make a locket out of it.
Khatri, why don't you
move to some other village?
Which village will
shelter a thief like me?
This village is my own.
So what if they loathe me.
Now there is only one
final journey left to take.
What's with the song and dance?
Has there been a birth in the village?
No, there's a wedding.
Whose?
The village chief's son.
Chandu's?
Our Chander's getting married!
Silly lad couldn't even tie
his pajamas till yesterday!
Look
How time flies!
Line me up for a shave too.
I need to look decent.
Else the bride's family will think
I've escaped from the zoo.
Try and shave the pricks
off his conscience as well.
Why has the music stopped? Play it!
Have you been invited?
Family members don't need invitations.
Chander's like my own son.
Chander Look, what I got for you
You'll be thrilled to bits. Look here.
A bear claw charm!
Specially made for you. Take it.
Go on.
Go on
Be warned chief.
If the claw turns out to be stolen,
the bear might come knocking!
Got any biscuits?
Don't you give four toffees
free with every two biscuits, Uncle?
The tea is boiling over!
Wait, Biniya!
Wait.
Your umbrella
you forgot it at the shop.
This is not mine.
By chance.
How much is this for?
And this?
Haven't you heard of Bill Gates?
Worth millions and millions of rupees!
Yes, multi-billionaire.
