[birds chirping]
[man 1] Tonight at 07:30 p.m.,
at Lord Krishna Temple in Bhatkandi,
a vaccination camp has been
organized for women and girls.
All villagers are hereby requested
-to get their parents and children
-[children playing in the distance]
to this vaccination camp.
[indistinct chatter]
Tonight at 07:30 p.m.,
at Lord Krishna Temple in Bhatkandi,
a vaccination camp has been
organized for women and girls.
He's been sitting
at the door since morning.
He says he will accept
alms only from you.
…to get their parents and children
-to this vaccination camp.
-Why does everyone come to my house?
I have loads to do.
I don't have time for this.
All villagers are hereby requested…
[door chain clinks loudly]
Please take it, baba.
…a vaccination camp
has been organized.
All villagers are hereby requested
to get their parents
and children to this vaccination camp.
[Gobind] Are you here to create a scene?
Shall I call Dr. Prabhat?
-What are you doing?
-[Ram Avtar baba] Get this.
[Gobind] You talk with such authority,
as though the PHC was built on your land.
[Ram Avtar baba] Isn't that the truth?
As if this is some Taj Mahal?
One strike
and your nose will start bleeding.
-[Gobind] Step back, Ram Avtar baba!
-Gobind, what's going on?
Sir, Gobind was getting
the new stock of medicines.
His bike fell on the paddy.
Now Ram Avtar baba
has punctured his bike's tire.
[Gobind] I have to do
everything on time. Please understand.
Unemployment is on the rise.
See for yourself.
Sit back and enjoy it, sir.
It's so much fun.
The side stand of my bike is broken
and on top of that, you are cursing me.
-Gobind!
-Ram Avtar baba.
-[Prabhat] All day, you guys are at it.
-Remember, I am a government servant.
Behaving with me in this manner
is a punishable offense.
Punishable offense, my foot!
[Prabhat in English] Stop it, guys.
The bike accidentally fell onto the paddy,
-doesn't mean you'll puncture my tire!
-[in Hindi] One second, guys.
Sir, please contact the police station.
It's time for him to learn another lesson.
[crow cawing]
[wood creaks]
-[in English] Ram Avtar ji, I am sorry.
-[distant engine hums]
[in Hindi] The motorcycle
accidentally fell on the paddy.
It won't happen again.
[in English] I am sorry.
Alright.
Hey!
Meet me on the road someday,
I will knock you down with my bike.
You have dared to mess
with Suresh Bhagat's son!
[cow moos in the distance]
Sir. You should not apologize
to such insignificant people.
I am sorry, Gobind.
-[rustling footsteps in field]
-[somber music plays]
[wood creaks]
Sir, you have been apologizing
to everyone since morning.
Has something happened?
[in Hindi] What's there to happen, Gobind?
In fact, I came here with a zeal…
to contribute something.
But it's the same old tale every day.
The quarrel over the farm,
Ram Avtar's arguments.
You standing idle.
Phutani ji lounging.
Did I do anything worthwhile?
-That's not how it is, sir.
-Then how is it?
Tell me. How is it?
What did I do here?
Phutani ji, you tell me.
Did I save anyone's life?
Has anything as such
happened in this village
that wouldn't have happened
had I not come here?
This…
I got a memo from the CMO.
I don't have the courage to open it.
It would have been better
if I had gone back to Delhi.
How will you go to Delhi, sir?
The CMO will not sanction leaves.
[somber music fades]
Why would I need leaves, Phutani ji?
I'll make the slips and you mark
proxy attendance for me.
I had suggested that long back, sir.
You were right.
-I was a fool to not understand it.
-[motorcycle approaching]
Gobind, I'll make the slips
and give them to you.
Phutani ji will mark
proxy attendance for me.
I see no reason for me to come to the PHC.
[playful music plays]
[in English] Hi, Gargi ji.
[in Hindi] The CMO sir had mentioned it.
We have to go
to the vaccination camp, right?
[in English] Hello.
[in Hindi]
Will you have some tea?
You seem to be having a whale of a time.
Rain check for the tea.
How about taking a look at the camp?
We also have to set up a vaccination camp
at the temple, this evening.
Shall we?
[in English] Yes. Of course.
Come on.
[in Hindi] Gobind, get the bike.
It's punctured.
I told you not to apologize to him.
-Phutani ji, get the bike.
-Yes.
Come on, Gobind.
-We shall go together.
-Hmm.
[metal stand lifts with a clink]
[playful music continues]
-Come on, scoot.
-Move.
Some more?
I'll have to sit on the tank now.
-A little…
-Okay.
Sir, are you comfortable?
Not at all.
[goat bleating]
I have an idea.
Hang on, Gobind. One second.
Scoot ahead.
One second, sir.
Yes, sir. Now, it's fine.
I'm not even on the bike now.
[muffled chatter]
Shall I walk there?
I think the initial arrangement was good.
-Shall I ride?
-No.
-One second.
-We'll do it.
-I can't scoot any further.
-[Gargi] Dr. Prabhat.
Come on.
-Okay. I'll… Come along.
Okay, sir.
Get back.
[playful music fades]
-[in English] Sorry.
-Hmm.
-Let's go.
-Thank you.
[tender instrumental music]
-[Gobind] Prabhat sir, are you at ease?
-[Phutani chuckles]
Rest assured.
We will get there with the vaccines.
You may join us later.
[tender instrumental music ends]
Bus fare.
Ma'am, pay me the fare.
Bus fare. Ma'am, bus fare.
Bus fare.
-Bus fare.
-Hey!
-Hey! Who are you?
-Bus fare…
Why ask for fare? Get lost!
Stop the bus. A madman's onboard.
Don't get on the bus ever again.
Silly chap.
[birds chirping, insects buzzing]
[tense music playing]
[tense music fades]
[strong wind gusting]
[motorcycle approaching]
[in Hindi]
Gargi, please stop here for a minute.
-[Prabhat] Sudhir!
-Do you know him?
[Prabhat] Yes, he's Nurse Indu's son.
He's from my village.
Sudhir!
Sudhir!
What are you doing here?
What are you doing here?
[ominous music plays]
Sudhir, what are you doing here?
Passengers will soon be here.
I am waiting for them.
Please leave.
[ominous music intensifies]
Will they come here? To this place?
Sudhir, listen to me.
Hey! Who is Sudhir?
Who are you looking for? Who is Sudhir?
I don't know anyone by that name.
Who are you?
What are you doing here?
-Don't you know me?
-Why would I know you?
The bus driver sent you here
to say that I am not a conductor, right?
I am a conductor!
I have been one for four years.
-I can explain. Let's go home.
-Why are you forcing me?
I told you that I am
in the middle of a class.
The principal sent you here, right?
Everyone thinks that I am not a teacher.
But I am a teacher. I have been
teaching kids for 15 years now.
I have been teaching kids!
Why don't you understand?
You barged into my classroom!
Please leave!
I am telling you that I do not know you.
A class is in session,
and you walk in unannounced.
Why are you bothering me?
I don't know any Sudhir!
[Sudhir continues rambling]
Who is this Sudhir?
I will not spare anyone.
I will kill everybody one day!
-[ominous music fades]
-[thunder rumbling]
Indu ji.
Where is Sudhir?
He has gone to give tuition.
What happened?
He has not gone to give tuition.
I bumped into him
on the outskirts of the village.
He…
Please sit. I need to talk to you.
Please sit.
[wind howling]
Indu ji.
Sudhir doesn't tell lies.
He took the vaccine from me.
This was my reality.
But in his reality…
Look, today, when he met me,
he could not even recognize me.
Forget about me. He was not
clear about who he himself was.
[in English]
I think he is suffering from a problem.
[tense music builds]
It could be DID.
Dissociative Identity Disorder. It's a…
It's a mental health issue.
-[Prabhat in Hindi] But nowadays…
-[in English] Mental?
-[in Hindi] Is my son insane?
-[Prabhat] No.
That's what I want to
explain to you, Indu ji.
Sir, he just tells lies.
Also, he tells lies on rare occasions.
All kids do that.
That is what I mean, Indu ji.
He is not telling lies.
He's saying all the things
that he believes are true!
He is not insane, sir.
My son is preparing
for a government exam.
If you spread such a rumor,
will he ever land a job?
He is alright, sir. I know it.
The entire village is after him.
Please don't do the same.
[tense music fades]
-[Prabhat] Indu ji.
-[thunder rumbling]
Indu ji, as a nurse, how can you say that?
Think about it. If he gets
treatment and recovers,
his life will get better.
All the villagers trouble him.
They call him a liar.
He's just a kid!
Think about how stifled
he must be feeling.
-[in English] He's suffering, but you…
-You searched the entire village
and could not find one patient.
So, now, you are after my son's life?
[intense music plays]
You had come to see around the village.
You came here
to gain experience. You got it now.
We don't need a doctor like you.
Leave!
[soft crying]
[intense music fades]
[in Hindi] Indu ji, who do you think I am?
I am a gold medalist from
India's top medical college.
If I had to gain experience,
I'd have gone with my friends,
chasing a fat paycheck,
to the UK, the US, or Australia.
I have come here for you people.
[heartfelt music plays]
Don't I know that
after studying so hard and
doing so much research,
every doctor would want
to settle in a big city?
At a place where there
is no dearth of doctors!
Still, I came here.
Because I know
that even today, there are
many villages in our country
where an ailing person is waiting
for a good doctor to come.
In every village, Indu ji…
In every village of our country,
a mentally unstable person, a liar
spends his life with that very identity.
Only because no doctor
is there to treat him.
A doctor who can tell him
that he is not mad.
[Indu whimpers]
That he is not a liar.
[in English]
Sudhir is suffering from a problem.
A problem that is treatable.
[in Hindi] You are a mother, Indu ji.
As a mother, do whatever
you feel is right.
[in English] But I am a doctor.
And, as a doctor,
I will fight for Sudhir.
-[loud thud]
-[loud grunt]
-[man coughs]
-[heartfelt music ends]
[poignant music plays]
What are you doing?
Dear.
What are you doing? Stop!
[Indu] What are you doing?
Stop.
[Sudhir grunts]
What are you doing?
Why have you come back here?
What do you want now?
Nothing's left.
I waited for you, for six long years,
but you did not turn up.
[Sudhir gasps]
Did you ever try to find out
how I raised my kid all by myself?
Nothing's left.
You did not even do anything
when you were present.
Sometimes, you worked
as a driver, a conductor, a teacher.
You could not even be a good husband.
You have returned home
after many years as an ascetic,
at least embrace that fully.
I am no saint.
I will become a saint
only after I take final alms
from my own house.
[poignant music intensifies]
It is what it is.
Grant me alms.
Sudhir. Stop.
-Sudhir!
-Kindly offer me alms.
[thunder rumbling]
[poignant music fades]
[somber music plays]
[somber music fades]
[wind howling]
[somber music plays]
[somber music ends]
Token numbers 612 to 617,
proceed towards the tent.
Do take your snacks
after getting vaccinated.
After your vaccination, kindly take
your snacks from the tent at the back.
Fall in line to get the vaccine.
Please do not jump the line.
Do get your Aadhaar card along…
[Muffled announcement over PA system]
[harmonious vocalizing begins]
[harmonious vocalizing ends]
[in English] I think… psycho-therapy
or pharmacological therapy or
a combination of both can help him.
[in Hindi] There is a psychiatrist
in Ranchi. Dr. Shonali.
I can get in touch with her but…
I can't do anything without
the consent of Sudhir's mother.
[harmonious vocalizing begins]
[harmonious vocalizing ends]
-[in English] Goodnight.
-Goodnight.
Prabhat.
-[dogs barking]
-[insects buzzing]
[in Hindi] Initially, when I met you,
I didn't feel you were serious
about your job.
I felt like you are
in no way different from the people
who are here to fulfill
the formality of their posting.
Today, after seeing you
so worried for Sudhir, I am assured
that you have actually come here
to help these people.
[gentle music plays]
[in Hindi] I am thinking about Sudhir.
[in English] He needs urgent help.
I hope Indu ji
makes the right decision.
[in English] Goodnight, Dr. Prabhat.
[footsteps retreating]
PRIMARY HEALTH CENTER
[gentle music ends]
-[Gobind] Brother Phutani.
-[Phutani] Hmm?
Telling lies is a mental disorder now.
I didn't know that.
But sir said that,
in certain mental disorders,
the patient tells lies unknowingly.
[Gobind] If Sudhir is suffering
from a mental illness,
then Ram Avtar is suffering
from a monumental illness.
You have become very insensitive.
PRIMARY HEALTH CENTER
BHATKANDI
[phone dings]
[clock ticking]
[approaching footsteps]
Will my son recover, sir?
Now that you are ready
to get him treated, Indu ji,
everything will be fine.
I had tied a knot
with a prayer that
he lands a government job.
[train horn honks in the distance]
[train passing by]
DR. PRABHAT SINHA
[emotional harmonizing melody]
I will open this knot only
when my son recovers fully.
[emotional harmonizing melody ends]
[melancholic music plays]
[melancholic music intensifies]
[melancholic music fades]
[indistinct chatter]
The one inside…
Is he a relative of yours?
No.
[in English] He is my patient.
My first patient.
[soft harmonizing]
[soft harmonizing ends]
Open it, sir.
Why think so much about it?
Yes, sir. Open it.
It might be inquiry orders,
a transfer, or a suspension.
[knocking on door]
[man 1] Are you Dr. Prabhat?
[gentle music plays]
I heard that the dispensary
is up and running.
May I come in?
Please.
[gentle music ends]
[powerful orchestral crescendo]

-[heartfelt music ends]
[poignant music plays]
What are you doing?
Dear.
What are you doing? Stop!
[Indu] What are you doing?
Stop.
[Sudhir grunts]
What are you doing?
Why have you come back here?
What do you want now?
Nothing's left.

I am no saint.
I will become a saint
only after I take final alms
from my own house.
[poignant music intensifies]
It is what it is.
Grant me alms.
Sudhir. Stop.
-Sudhir!
-Kindly offer me alms.

[in English] I think… psycho-therapy
or pharmacological therapy or
a combination of both can help him.
[in Hindi] There is a psychiatrist
in Ranchi. Dr. Shonali.
I can get in touch with her but…
I can't do anything without
the consent of Sudhir's mother.

-[in English] Goodnight.
-Goodnight.
Prabhat.

[in Hindi] Initially, when I met you,
I didn't feel you were serious
about your job.
I felt like you are
in no way different from the people
who are here to fulfill
the formality of their posting.
Today, after seeing you
so worried for Sudhir, I am assured
that you have actually come here
to help these people.
[gentle music plays]
[in Hindi] I am thinking about Sudhir.
[in English] He needs urgent help.
I hope Indu ji
makes the right decision.
[in English] Goodnight, Dr. Prabhat.

-[Gobind] Brother Phutani.
-[Phutani] Hmm?
Telling lies is a mental disorder now.
I didn't know that.
But sir said that,
in certain mental disorders,
the patient tells lies unknowingly.
[Gobind] If Sudhir is suffering
from a mental illness,
then Ram Avtar is suffering
from a monumental illness.
You have become very insensitive.

Will my son recover, sir?
Now that you are ready
to get him treated, Indu ji,
everything will be fine.
I had tied a knot
with a prayer that
he lands a government job.

DR. PRABHAT SINHA
[emotional harmonizing melody]
I will open this knot only
when my son recovers fully.

[indistinct chatter]
The one inside…
Is he a relative of yours?
No.
[in English] He is my patient.
My first patient.
[soft harmonizing]
[soft harmonizing ends]
Open it, sir.
Why think so much about it?
Yes, sir. Open it.
It might be inquiry orders,
a transfer, or a suspension.
[knocking on door]
[man 1] Are you Dr. Prabhat?
[gentle music plays]
I heard that the dispensary
is up and running.
May I come in?
Please.
