Abdullahpur Ka Devdas (2024) s01e04 Episode Script

That’s it, that’s it
Oh wow,
he’s emerged as a leader
within a week’s time
Fakhar you scoundrel,
what’s with this look?
Let me smother
my brother in a hug
Call me Governor Fakhar
Leader and brother of all
Oh wow!
How are you?
I’m all good
You punk, you haven’t called me
once ever since you left for the university
It must be a love affair that’s
got you all distracted
There is a girl!
She’s the epitome of beauty
just like your Gulbano
Like Gulbano?
How do you know about Gulbano?
Hmm?
Wait a minute..
It’s Natasha, isn’t it?
You text each other, don’t you?
She’s the one who
must have told you.
That’s not the case man!
My girl’s name is Ruby
I’m from Urdu department
She’s studying in English department
Oh you silly goof, her English
struck you right in the heart
Oh no, man
We’ve barely interacted
with each other
I thought.. let me first create a cool
bravado in the university
and make her swoon
over me completely
But I need your help
for that bro
Mine? What kind of help?
A literary festival is being
held in the university
My classmate Qandeel
is taking care of
all the arrangements.
You just need to pen
a poetry so profound
that’ll pierce right through
my princess’ heart.
How could I write about her when
I haven’t even seen her?
I’ll tell you what,
write as if you’re
writing for Gulbano.
Come on now bro, please.
Fine, for your sake.
Come here bro! Give me a hug!
You haven’t even met aunt
since you came!
You haven’t, right?
Come let’s go.
I understand you..
even I have an ocean of
conflicts with him.
But he won me over with his decision of
competing the elections against Bedaar Bakht.
I agree with you Mr. Dewaan!
Getting round up in scuffle
with boys his age..
let’s put that on one side..
But the entire neighbourhood
is cognizant of Fakhar’s pure intentions
Do you remember..
when Mr. Sheikh got into an accident?
Fakhar not only took care of all
the expenses for the entire four days
but also donated blood.
I agree, there’s a whole list
of his good gestures..
That’s why I am adamant
that we should support Fakhar.
His win is our win after all!
Absolutely!
He lives right under our nose..
If we need him
We’ll just get hold of him
even if it’s in the middle of the night.
You got that right.
That boy is being a
quite a menace to you.
Which boy?
Devdas!
First he publicly got
into a brawl with you..
Then barged into the
palace to take pictures.
And now he’s contesting against
you in the elections.
Don’t you worry..
I’ll take care of him on my own.
He has the neighbourhood at his back!
His buzz is picking the momentum up.
No one shall win the seat but me!!
And I will not spare him for
setting his eyes on Gulbano!
Because Gulbano belongs
only to me!
Don’t fret over Gulbano..
Keep your eyes on the seat.
The last time she was here..
..she asked Kulsoom
about Abdullahpur’s Devdas
and his true identity.
This brat of a Devdas!!
Stars glimmer through your eyes
Moon light shines upon your forehead
Oh how an angel from the skies has
descended upon us
Flowers are frowning for the fragile
beauty has diminished into dust
Pour your heart out as if you’re writing
for your muse Gul Bano
Cast under the spell of crazy love,
the entire city has gone mad
The blind can now see,
even silent ones shriek loud cacophonies
I swear upon god,
if you stay you shall be worshipped incessantly.
Stars glimmer through your eyes
Moon light shines upon your forehead
Oh how an angel from the
skies has descended upon us
Flowers are frowning for the fragile
beauty has diminished into dust
Wow!
What a masterpiece!!
Where are you headed
all dressed up, Fakhar?
[in a sarcastic tone]
Fakhar the batsman has ceased to exist.
I am now Governor Fakhar.
I bound to be suave and sharp
at all times now, Jameela
You look so cute in all
the advertisements
It boils my blood seeing all the girls
swoon over your pictures.
Hey that’s a good sign..
I’ll win more votes.
Do one thing,
plaster a huge banner of mine
outside your home.
The world should know
its Governor Fakhar’s home.
Banner or no banner,
that house shall always be yours.
Oh it almost slipped my mind..
Father is ecstatic about
this decision of yours.
He was saying tea will be on the house
at his café on the day of your rally.
Do one thing..
Visit all your friends
and tell them
to look at my electoral symbol
instead of my picture.
Ballot paper will have my electoral
symbol imprinted on it, not my picture.
Hmm?
Fakhar,
that same car is broken
down at the roundabout.
I’ll be back.
Fakhar, hang on please.
Listen..
Who’s this Abdullahpur’s Devdas?
Even you are enquiring about him!
Last time, madam was also
wanting to know about him.
Hmm..
And you snitched to
Aunt Jahan Ara!
It’s my duty to inform about
everything to madam.
This job runs my house and
takes care of my family.
And this lady is your future madam..
Your madam!
You’ll be much more secure
if you listen to her.
Please ask away.
Do you know Devdas?
Yes I am aware of him.
Alright.
Take this.
And deliver it to Devdas..
But don’t let a single soul know.
Take!
Kulsoom..
Kulsoom..
Where have you been?
I’ve been calling you for so long.
Go help out in the kitchen.
Yes madam.
Greetings Aunt, how are you?
Greetings!
The sight of you reminds
me of my sister.
Your resemblance with
Husn Ara is so uncanny.
Call Kulsoom if you need anything.
Sure.
Thank you.
Oh my God!
She’ll deliver the letter, right?
Of course
Didn’t you see her face?
Madam..
Yes?
Do you know
where madam Gulbano is?
How would I know unless you tell?
I’ll give the details
if you inquire, right?
Take this.
Tell me now.
My husband didn’t come over last night.
He informed me over the phone,
that he’ll get late for duty
if he comes home.
He had to take madam Gulbano
to the palace at the crack of dawn.
Go bring me some coffee.
I’m at it.
It’s her Aunt’s house..
she could come over
whenever she pleases.
You shouldn’t be getting
offended over this!
I am a father figure to her!
It’s imperative that she informs me
of all her whereabouts.
If you were actually her father figure
and if she considered you her father,
she would have asked for your permission
instead of just informing you.
Truth of the matter is,
she doesn’t even consider
you her uncle.
Stop spewing poison in her
against me, Jahan Ara.
She is the daughter of
my deceased sister..
My future daughter-in-law..
I guide her,
not misguide her.
If I were to flare her up..
I would have told her
about the person who plotted
her parents’ car accident.
Who are you gawking at, huh?
Fakhar!
Why?
Is he your brother?
He’s not my brother,
that’s why I have my eyes on him.
Oh,
what’s the matter with her?
Oh man!
Is full toss even a
good bowling move?
Bowl at his legs!
Wait a minute..
Fakhar, I’ll be right back.
Cover me up.
Yes, mom?
Hand this over to Fakhar..
it’s from Gulbano.
Oh I see.
Go now.
Fakhar,
Mom just came from the Haveli.
Gulbano has sent a letter for you.
Gulbano?
“Apparently in Abdullahpur,
butterflies ought to be cloaked in veil
because the bumblebees
are very flirty here.
They’re so prone to slipping
off the ledge.
Just like that night,
when someone blatantly introduced
himself as the Devdas of Abdullahpur.
Perhaps, in this town the true definition
of Devdas is not known.
Anyway,
when the evening gets darker,
Come through the back
door of the haveli
and take your umbrella away.
I don’t tend to keep forgotten things,
GulBano.”
I will not give it to you
no matter what.
Aunt, please control him.
No.
Why are you bothering me?
What is this nuisance?
I’ll trip!
Aren’t you my brother?
Hang on a second, hang on.
I’m out of breath.
They’re still so juvenile!
Come on hand it over,
I’ll read it and give it back.
Brotherhood on one side,
but I’m not compromising on my love!
I’ll just take a quick look.
Come on now, man.
Come on.
I’m afraid, maybe she gave
the letter to aunt Jahan Ara!
How long has it been since
she left?
It’s been 50 minutes since she left.
I don’t think you should worry then!
Had your aunt caught the letter..
you would have been in deep
waters by now.
What if Bedaar caught the letter?
Had Bedaar caught the letter..
The mosque of Abdullahpur would have
announced about Devdas’ death by now.
Did you deliver the letter?
Keep it low, please.
I’ll invite my death
if someone hears.
Did you deliver the letter or not?
I have.
Now please go downstairs..
Spend some time with
madam and Bedaar sir.
Otherwise they’ll get suspicious.
Take this..
Keep this money.
Devdas will be here tonight..
You will escort him inside.
Don’t worry..
I’ll inform you the moment he’s here.
Yes don’t worry about it.
I’m really stressed!!
Finally everything will be okay.
Oh God!
I don’t know what will happen!
Dad..
Dad..
Dad..
Dad..
Sir is not at home.
What?
He has taken madam out..
It’s her birthday.
Ok, Go.
Pick up the phone..
Come on pick up..
Pick up..
I’m dying in here
and you’re enjoying with your wife!!
What kind of crap is this!!
What do you think of this Haveli?
It’s lovely.
You know my grandfather’s
palace was just like this
I’ve taken a plethora of pictures..
I’ll send all of them
to mom and dad
See!!
Sweet!
Has your friend always been
this introverted?
Or is it just with me?
It’s a good thing
she’s calculated with
her words around you.
Otherwise, you don’t know
what she did with Shehroze!
Oh my God!
Does Shehroze come over
every day to meet Gulbano?
The real question is,
when does he not come?
University, apartment-
he’s all over the place.
Bashir!
Bashir!
Have all the servants of the
palace gone blind?
Careless of all the insects around!
Why did you bring up Shehroze?
Now don’t let it slip that we’re
here in Abdullahpur for Devdas.
Anyway, he’ll be coming
here in the evening.
Come along.
Why are you like this?
I counselled you the other day.
You told me, not to misbehave..
Don’t flare up..
Instead make her feel your presence.
Presence my foot, dad!
She left for the palace, yet again!
Will you stop being a brat
if you win Gulbano over?
Is it possible to have her?
Come on now, dad.
How can I get her?
She’s on the verge of getting
married to Bedaar?
She’s on the verge,
but has not gotten married yet.
Nor will she get married to him!
Let me set this right for you..
Hmm?
Trust me?
Be a good boy, give me a hug.
Are you aware of all the
security around the palace?
Yes I am aware.
(sarcastically) I am aware!
You’re walking right
into a death trap.
Hey you, I have received a letter.
She told me to come through
the backdoor in the middle of the night.
Those who hide in comfort
of their homes..
do not find themselves in pages of love.
Pages?
Their love is killed to death
In the middle of the night!
Bedaar Bakht will not spare you.
You forget about it.
Oh we’ll see..
I’ll meet her and you’ll see.
If I see love glimmer
through her eyes..
I swear I’ll take
Bedaar Bakht’s life!
Are you nuts or something?
I have made up my mind.
Hey..
Let me accompany you.
No no..
You stay at home with aunt.
It’s imperative someone
stays with her.
Alright then!
Look at him go!
What’s the matter?
Aunt has slept..
..and Bedaar has stepped
out of Abdullahpur.
He’ll be back in a few days
Kulsoom informed
So it’s the right time to meet up!
But why hasn’t he showed up yet?
Have you taken a look at
the security of this palace?
He must be glued to some wall.
He’s not that innocent..
He barged into the palace
the other day as well.
Hmm?
We’ll fix some way of meeting up.
But what are you going to ask him
when you meet him?
There’s not much to talk about..
I’ll just return the umbrella
and thank him for escorting
me that rainy day.
And?
That’s it?
What else?
You have invited a threat
so colossal for him.
Sit him down..
and ask him if he’ll marry you
once you get rid of that ring?
Hey you
Stand at that door!
Wait right here..
I’ll go upstairs and inform her.
If someone comes,
just climb up those stairs..
First room on the right is Gulbano’s,
got it?
Okay.
Wow!
Kudos to your Devdas alter ego
There is a mighty difference
between love and politics.
In love, a person puts his
own life at risk..
But in politics other people’s
life is put at risk!
While you are a mere Devdas!
Put it back inside.
I was about to get
married to Gulbano..
You would have found
yourself engulfed in an
intense misery and
deep passionate love.
If you had not longed to
be a king here..
Then this Devdas alter ego
was just the right role for you!
I was the one who sent you that letter.
Take away this letter,
and give it to that Devdas.
And listen,
Gulbano shouldn’t find out
that I know about this letter, at all.
Finish the last Devdas of Abdullahpur.
Devdas!
