WEBVTT

00:16.945 --> 00:20.145
I have a foolproof idea to
send you both to Cambridge.

00:21.465 --> 00:22.305
What?

00:25.225 --> 00:26.505
SCRAPES

00:35.545 --> 00:38.145
Urmila <i>ji,</i> how could we murder
five children?

00:39.385 --> 00:40.505
And where will we
hide the dead bodies?

00:40.825 --> 00:42.585
We won't murder them.

00:42.985 --> 00:44.785
We will just stop
them from giving the exams.

00:45.105 --> 00:45.985
I see.

00:46.385 --> 00:47.585
- You still don't get it, do you?
- No.

00:48.145 --> 00:50.185
Let's say you have ten goats.

00:51.145 --> 00:53.505
Now, five of these goats
give two liters of milk.

00:53.625 --> 00:55.145
And the remaining five
don't give you any milk.

00:55.305 --> 00:58.665
So, what is the average milk
that your barn produces per goat?

01:00.945 --> 01:02.305
One liter?

01:03.345 --> 01:07.385
But what does goat's milk
have to do with school results?

01:07.545 --> 01:09.265
Why are you doing this?

01:09.385 --> 01:11.665
Gyaneshwar <i>ji,</i> let me make my point.

01:12.105 --> 01:12.905
Now, let's say

01:13.025 --> 01:16.665
you remove those five non-performing
goats from your barn.

01:17.905 --> 01:19.465
What is the new average of your barn?

01:19.585 --> 01:20.505
Two liters.

01:22.425 --> 01:23.225
What do you mean?

01:23.345 --> 01:24.145
I mean...

01:25.865 --> 01:28.825
If these five children don't take
the board exams,

01:29.305 --> 01:31.265
your school's average
will automatically rise.

01:32.305 --> 01:35.145
Maybe enough to put you and Sushma
on that flight to the UK.

01:38.705 --> 01:41.025
Those five kids will have to
repeat the year.

01:41.185 --> 01:42.585
They will have to do that anyway.

01:43.585 --> 01:44.945
Do you know Purav's answer

01:45.105 --> 01:46.865
to the three states of matter
question in the pre-boards?

01:47.065 --> 01:48.225
Delhi, UP, and Haryana.

01:48.665 --> 01:50.065
"Because all matters happen there."

01:50.425 --> 01:52.225
These five kids can't be helped.

01:52.345 --> 01:54.865
That is why you need to
stop their admit cards.

01:56.665 --> 01:58.025
Urmila <i>ji,</i> I am the Headmaster.

01:58.145 --> 02:00.505
I can't destroy their future.

02:01.345 --> 02:03.705
Did playing cricket with them
day and night

02:03.825 --> 02:05.545
help shape their futures?

02:06.025 --> 02:08.705
Gyaneshwar <i>ji,</i> you never
cared about those kids.

02:09.105 --> 02:11.185
Nor should you start caring now.

02:12.105 --> 02:13.225
How much is your salary?

02:13.625 --> 02:14.785
Along with TA and DM it's...

02:14.905 --> 02:16.265
No matter how low your salary is,

02:16.465 --> 02:17.624
whether you get it on time or not,

02:17.625 --> 02:22.105
a teacher has to be selfless and
always worry about their students.

02:22.505 --> 02:24.385
But why? Why?

02:24.785 --> 02:26.665
After working for 25 years,

02:26.985 --> 02:28.545
this is the first time you have
received such an opportunity.

02:29.625 --> 02:31.625
This won't just allow Sushma
to go to England.

02:32.425 --> 02:35.225
It will also make sure our SMC
gets a picture in the annual report.

02:36.265 --> 02:37.865
Now you need to decide

02:38.425 --> 02:40.625
if you want to be
an ideal headmaster

02:41.665 --> 02:43.265
or a successful headmaster.

02:56.265 --> 02:58.705
Look, I agree the scrape kids
are struggling

02:58.825 --> 03:02.145
but if all the teachers come together
to tutor them, they will definitely learn.

03:02.265 --> 03:03.345
No, they won't, ma'am.

03:03.705 --> 03:06.345
Simple often spells
her own name wrong.

03:06.545 --> 03:08.425
Do you expect me to
teach her ADBC?

03:08.545 --> 03:10.185
No, it's ABCD.

03:11.505 --> 03:13.905
Madam, the scrape kids can't be helped.

03:14.025 --> 03:16.385
Look ma'am, wheather they are
scrapes or cream,

03:16.545 --> 03:18.505
we need to see to every
child's needs--

03:18.625 --> 03:19.425
I don't see it.

03:19.785 --> 03:21.865
If you make an effort, you
can definitely see it. Don't say--

03:21.985 --> 03:23.625
I mean, I don't see them
in class, madam.

03:25.785 --> 03:27.505
Where are the last-benchers?

03:27.665 --> 03:31.465
Ma'am, Goldy <i>ji</i> sent them to
protect our culture on Valentine's Day.

03:35.745 --> 03:38.225
Come on. Hurry up and give me
your parents' number.

03:38.625 --> 03:40.345
Hey, Bubu Dudu, do you want a slap?

03:40.905 --> 03:44.145
What are you looking at,
Romeo and Juliet? Go down, 27.

03:45.305 --> 03:46.745
Good, 28.

03:46.865 --> 03:49.345
- Hey, go all the way down.
- Twenty-nine...

03:49.505 --> 03:51.985
Are all of you bunking school
to put on a street play here?

03:52.345 --> 03:53.465
- Us?
- Street play?

03:53.585 --> 03:55.025
Ma'am, we are not doing
a street play.

03:55.705 --> 03:57.065
We are soldiers from the Goldy Army.

03:57.185 --> 03:58.785
- Goldy Army?
- Soldiers!

03:59.425 --> 04:01.425
But why are you attacking
these poor folks?

04:01.545 --> 04:03.785
They are ruining
Tinki Toli's culture.

04:04.505 --> 04:05.545
In front of everyone at the park...

04:06.585 --> 04:07.385
they're holding hands.

04:08.145 --> 04:10.425
Mother-in-law! Father-in-law!

04:10.945 --> 04:13.145
But these two are married!
Please let them go.

04:13.265 --> 04:17.185
All of them can only leave when
they do 50 sit-ups.

04:17.305 --> 04:19.025
How will we do that?

04:19.185 --> 04:21.185
This kid can't count above 29!

04:21.305 --> 04:23.545
Hey, 27...

04:23.905 --> 04:25.025
- Twenty...
- Just count as high as you can.

04:25.185 --> 04:26.305
What is going on here, Gopal?

04:26.625 --> 04:28.264
You're not old enough
to join a political party.

04:28.265 --> 04:29.865
Tell everyone to go home.
We're going back to school.

04:29.985 --> 04:31.865
What will we do in school, ma'am?

04:32.425 --> 04:33.625
We are all just scrapes, aren't we?

04:37.425 --> 04:39.465
I needed sir to sign something,
and I saw it on the board.

04:42.345 --> 04:44.225
Look, not all teachers think that.

04:44.905 --> 04:46.025
I think this is wrong myself.

04:46.185 --> 04:47.305
No, ma'am, now this is
what is right.

04:48.105 --> 04:49.665
Maybe we were never
supposed to study.

04:51.025 --> 04:53.345
We will sit for the board exams
to make our parents happy,

04:53.465 --> 04:54.785
but we won't come to school anymore.

04:55.025 --> 04:56.425
- Yes!
- That's right.

04:59.545 --> 05:02.145
We will still come on Tuesdays.
To eat rice pudding.

05:02.265 --> 05:03.105
- Yes.
- Yes.

05:03.785 --> 05:05.025
Hey, Gopal, it's Goldy <i>ji.</i>

05:06.425 --> 05:07.745
We might be scrapes in school,

05:08.865 --> 05:11.305
but people respect us here.

05:13.265 --> 05:14.585
Yes, Goldy <i>ji?</i> Yes.

05:14.705 --> 05:17.545
- Come on. Keep going, 20, 21...
- Yes, sir. We caught them all here.

05:20.985 --> 05:21.825
Listen.

05:23.105 --> 05:24.825
- What do you think about this sari?
- It's nice.

05:25.665 --> 05:28.345
I was thinking about wearing this
for your brother's younger son's wedding.

05:28.545 --> 05:30.545
Isn't that what you wore
to the older son's wedding?

05:31.105 --> 05:32.705
No, you bought this last month.

05:37.985 --> 05:38.825
What's wrong?

05:41.785 --> 05:44.225
I need to make a difficult decision
without consulting DRS.

05:45.505 --> 05:46.545
I don't know what to do.

05:50.505 --> 05:52.705
You can never make
the wrong decision.

05:54.945 --> 05:55.825
Hey, listen.

06:00.265 --> 06:01.225
Are you happy being with me?

06:01.785 --> 06:02.585
Tell me the truth.

06:03.865 --> 06:04.705
No.

06:06.345 --> 06:08.665
But if you stop snoring,
then I will be happy.

06:10.905 --> 06:12.145
What are you talking about?

06:12.745 --> 06:14.265
Have I ever been denied anything?

06:14.905 --> 06:15.785
Come on.

06:39.345 --> 06:40.625
Purva is extraordinary, sir.

06:41.065 --> 06:43.505
She has gotten full marks in the
computer test three times in a row.

06:44.265 --> 06:47.665
Purva wrote such a beautiful
essay on patriotism

06:48.025 --> 06:49.585
that I watched Mr. India twice.

06:51.305 --> 06:53.625
Wait, but Mr. India is not
about patriotism.

06:54.905 --> 06:56.745
I realized that the second time I saw it.

06:57.265 --> 06:58.305
I will see you after the exam.

06:59.825 --> 07:02.945
The final Pre-Boards for Chemistry
are about to begin.

07:03.865 --> 07:06.265
Please leave your bags at the door.

07:11.185 --> 07:12.025
Purva?

07:13.105 --> 07:13.945
Put your bag away, child.

07:14.065 --> 07:16.385
Just two more minutes, sir. Please.

07:16.505 --> 07:17.865
- Purva.
- Sir...

07:18.465 --> 07:19.505
You already know everything.

07:19.625 --> 07:21.225
Sir, please, sir. Please.

07:28.185 --> 07:29.065
Come on, sit sideways.

07:29.185 --> 07:30.025
Pushkar.

07:31.105 --> 07:32.145
Stop pushing her.

07:33.385 --> 07:34.665
The exam has begun.

07:35.345 --> 07:36.225
Sir!

07:37.625 --> 07:38.585
Additional sheet.

07:39.065 --> 07:39.945
Additional sheet?

07:40.665 --> 07:41.465
Already?

07:41.825 --> 07:43.105
What if it runs out?

07:44.225 --> 07:45.305
Yes, sir, just give it to her.

07:45.585 --> 07:46.905
She writes very fast.

07:56.225 --> 07:59.025
Shit! I knew the answer to this!

07:59.265 --> 08:01.185
Shit! She knew the answer to this!

08:04.825 --> 08:06.425
Sir, may I go to the toilet, please?

08:28.425 --> 08:29.225
Purva?

08:30.385 --> 08:31.225
What's wrong, child?

08:31.385 --> 08:32.345
Sir, I...

08:34.745 --> 08:37.705
I... can't give the board exams, sir.

09:56.705 --> 09:58.385
Are you going to take NEET coaching?

09:58.505 --> 09:59.465
I have just applied for it.

10:00.265 --> 10:01.505
Nothing is final yet.

10:01.945 --> 10:05.065
To clear the admissions, I need
to get at least 90+ in the boards.

10:07.265 --> 10:09.585
But this coaching is
two hours away from here.

10:10.625 --> 10:11.425
Yes, so?

10:12.145 --> 10:13.225
I won't be going from here.

10:14.425 --> 10:16.385
I found a hostel near the coaching
classes. I will live there.

10:17.705 --> 10:20.225
Are you... leaving home?

10:21.985 --> 10:24.465
I am doing it to study.
Do you have a problem with that?

10:25.625 --> 10:26.465
No...

10:30.065 --> 10:31.745
Your career is getting a direction.

10:33.065 --> 10:33.865
I am very happy.

10:45.505 --> 10:47.505
The rice pudding has lost its sweetness
now, dude.

10:47.745 --> 10:48.585
What is this, ma'am?

10:48.705 --> 10:52.185
Shouldn't you have told us that you're
suddenly giving us a surprise test?

10:53.825 --> 10:56.305
The test has only three questions,
and they're all very easy.

10:56.905 --> 10:58.505
Who knows the answer
to the first question?

11:01.825 --> 11:04.545
Okay, and who knows the
answer to the second question?

11:08.385 --> 11:09.265
And third?

11:13.665 --> 11:15.625
How do you guys not know
the answer to the third question?

11:16.225 --> 11:18.465
Gopal? What is the question?

11:21.305 --> 11:22.945
Explain the law of inertia.

11:23.345 --> 11:25.185
You gave the right answer
during the pre-boards.

11:25.745 --> 11:26.665
Did you cheat back then?

11:26.785 --> 11:28.305
No, ma'am, I didn't cheat.

11:29.865 --> 11:31.945
I just... don't remember.

11:32.265 --> 11:33.065
And the first two?

11:34.105 --> 11:35.145
Why don't you know those answers?

11:35.625 --> 11:36.865
Because we're idiots, ma'am.

11:38.425 --> 11:39.425
Our brains aren't as good
as others'.

11:40.065 --> 11:41.785
Your brains aren't
different from the others.

11:41.905 --> 11:43.305
Your question paper is different.

11:44.585 --> 11:47.145
Your first two questions
are not in the syllabus.

11:47.905 --> 11:49.185
And the first two questions
for the others are too easy.

11:51.705 --> 11:52.505
It is different!

11:52.905 --> 11:55.585
Wow, ma'am. You asked
them two into five...

11:56.305 --> 11:58.185
and asked us to give
the surface area of a black hole?

11:58.865 --> 11:59.825
Why did you do that, ma'am?

12:00.625 --> 12:02.185
When the whole class
raised their hands,

12:03.425 --> 12:04.625
how did that make you guys feel?

12:05.025 --> 12:07.905
It felt... like I am stupid.

12:08.185 --> 12:10.065
It felt like we truly are scrapes.

12:11.345 --> 12:15.305
It felt like...
I could live with just one kidney.

12:15.545 --> 12:16.545
And that is the reason.

12:17.305 --> 12:20.505
That is the reason that by the time
you reached the third question,

12:20.705 --> 12:22.945
you had decided that you
were failures.

12:23.385 --> 12:26.185
And you couldn't answer the
question you knew the answer to.

12:26.905 --> 12:30.505
Look... failures, idiots, and scrapes.

12:31.105 --> 12:32.425
These are just labels.

12:32.905 --> 12:34.505
Not your reality.

12:35.585 --> 12:37.225
Gopal, do you want to try again?

12:37.825 --> 12:38.985
What is the law of inertia?

12:39.545 --> 12:40.505
Law of inertia...

12:41.545 --> 12:44.265
Ma'am, an...

12:44.385 --> 12:47.265
An object at rest stays at rest

12:47.905 --> 12:49.905
unless it's... unless...

12:50.025 --> 12:51.305
Unless acted upon?

12:51.425 --> 12:53.425
Acted upon by an external force.

12:55.105 --> 12:56.345
- Is that right?
- Yes.

12:57.865 --> 12:58.785
Nice!

13:00.905 --> 13:01.785
Sir?

13:02.105 --> 13:03.985
The admit cards for the tenth grade
are here.

13:04.145 --> 13:04.945
Should I distribute them?

13:05.305 --> 13:07.185
No, I will do it. Put them here.

13:18.145 --> 13:18.945
Yes, tell me.

13:19.065 --> 13:20.865
Sushma, how many big suitcases do we have?

13:22.265 --> 13:23.345
We only have one big suitcase.

13:23.865 --> 13:26.625
<i>I see? Then we will have
to buy another, won't we?</i>

13:27.185 --> 13:28.345
- Why?
- Because

13:28.465 --> 13:30.025
the England tour is for two weeks.

13:31.425 --> 13:32.825
We will need at least two suitcases.

13:34.745 --> 13:35.745
What are you saying?

13:35.865 --> 13:37.265
I am saying that you should get ready,

13:37.785 --> 13:39.905
you have an interview to
get a UK visa next month.

13:40.705 --> 13:41.625
<i>See you in the evening.</i>

14:10.345 --> 14:12.705
Not just in this school,

14:12.825 --> 14:15.345
Purva is one of the smartest
students in Delhi.

14:16.145 --> 14:17.305
Sir, you should...

14:18.065 --> 14:19.265
Oh, is this her mother?

14:20.425 --> 14:22.905
Yes. But you should
explain it to her.

14:23.265 --> 14:25.305
It's very important for her
to appear for the exams.

14:25.425 --> 14:27.345
Please bring her to the SMC meeting,

14:27.465 --> 14:29.105
and we will talk to her and try to
explain it to her.

14:29.585 --> 14:30.705
Yes, let's meet.

14:31.505 --> 14:32.345
Yes.

14:36.065 --> 14:36.905
Mukul sir?

14:38.465 --> 14:39.305
What are you doing here?

14:42.305 --> 14:43.305
No, sir, I...

14:44.705 --> 14:46.105
I was just checking Palak's paper.

14:47.825 --> 14:50.425
What do you think, sir?
Do you think Palak will get 90%?

14:51.265 --> 14:55.065
Wow, you say marks are just
numbers to other parents,

14:55.785 --> 14:59.225
and you want 90%
for your own daughter?

15:01.305 --> 15:02.225
Don't worry.

15:02.745 --> 15:04.785
Based on how hard she has been
working these days...

15:05.945 --> 15:07.145
I think she can do it.

15:11.665 --> 15:12.505
What's wrong?

15:13.105 --> 15:14.065
Are you not happy?

15:14.425 --> 15:15.945
Do you want 95%?

15:17.905 --> 15:18.705
No, sir.

15:26.865 --> 15:27.825
What do you mean you won't
come with us?

15:27.945 --> 15:28.945
Do you think the Goldy Army
is a subscription?

15:29.065 --> 15:30.145
Where you can quit
after the free trial?!

15:30.625 --> 15:33.345
We want to finish our schooling
before we join the party.

15:33.465 --> 15:35.305
Goldy <i>ji</i> didn't do that either.

15:35.625 --> 15:38.025
Yes! And if you study, then
who will burn the effigies?

15:38.425 --> 15:41.345
- Pick up the STD fliers, go.
- If we could finish our exams first...

15:41.465 --> 15:42.265
What? What's wrong?

15:42.905 --> 15:45.065
Sir, these kids say they will
join us after the exams.

15:45.225 --> 15:46.905
Let them go then. Go ahead.

15:47.545 --> 15:49.625
You can join us on 15th May.
There is a big rally. Now go.

15:50.185 --> 15:51.065
Thank you, Goldy <i>ji.</i>

15:51.465 --> 15:54.425
Yes, yes, bless you.
Yes, go ahead. Shoo.

16:01.945 --> 16:03.665
But, Goldy <i>ji,</i>
what about our manpower?

16:04.265 --> 16:05.625
Think long-term, Billu?

16:06.585 --> 16:08.345
When they fail their exams

16:08.465 --> 16:09.545
and their spirits break,

16:10.305 --> 16:12.025
that is when we will support them.

16:13.225 --> 16:14.705
If you treat injured puppies,

16:14.825 --> 16:16.785
they will be loyal to you
their whole lives.

16:17.825 --> 16:18.865
They will, too.

16:20.665 --> 16:22.425
Hey, moron, drive.
Can't you drive while listening?

16:29.945 --> 16:30.745
Look, my child.

16:31.185 --> 16:32.945
This father is standing in front
of you with his head bowed.

16:33.945 --> 16:36.065
I can't watch my child fail.

16:36.185 --> 16:38.105
But, Mr. Jangra,
she is not your daughter.

16:38.305 --> 16:39.705
But Pushkar is my son, sir!

16:40.105 --> 16:42.185
His roll number places him
behind her.

16:42.465 --> 16:45.825
If she gets 100 marks,
he could get 50 marks.

16:46.905 --> 16:47.745
Child...

16:48.545 --> 16:49.945
if you get good marks,

16:50.465 --> 16:53.265
that is how we will get our
picture in the education report.

16:54.065 --> 16:56.865
Otherwise, TTPS will beat us again.

16:56.985 --> 16:58.905
- Please give her some space.
- Understand, dear.

16:59.025 --> 17:01.745
- Listen to me, child.
- Please don't pressure her, sir.

17:01.865 --> 17:04.385
The time for rest and taking
it easy is over, Mukul sir.

17:05.265 --> 17:08.585
Before the war, Arjun refused
to pick up his weapons!

17:10.265 --> 17:12.625
- Please, child. Please.
- Dad...

17:13.905 --> 17:16.025
Look, you have six siblings
relying on you.

17:16.825 --> 17:17.665
And your two parents.

17:19.025 --> 17:20.905
- If you don't have a bright future--
- Dad.

17:22.065 --> 17:22.985
Dad, I...

17:23.385 --> 17:24.185
What?

17:24.865 --> 17:25.665
Dad...

17:26.025 --> 17:26.825
What is it, child?

17:29.425 --> 17:30.305
What?

17:30.425 --> 17:32.145
- I can't appear for these exams.
- Hey! Child!

17:32.425 --> 17:34.545
- Purva! Purva!
- Listen to me, my child.

17:34.665 --> 17:35.665
What are you doing?

17:36.425 --> 17:37.785
Can't you see how she feels?

17:38.825 --> 17:41.025
Performance anxiety has
hijacked her amygdala,

17:41.145 --> 17:43.145
which is why she is choosing
flight in fight or flight.

17:43.305 --> 17:44.505
Flight? Hijack?

17:45.825 --> 17:47.745
Why are you talking like
a terrorist, sir?

17:48.665 --> 17:49.545
I mean...

17:49.665 --> 17:51.785
she is suffocating under the
expectations of school,

17:51.905 --> 17:53.665
her neighborhood, and her family.

17:55.145 --> 17:57.065
Even if you overload a computer,
it will hang.

17:57.185 --> 17:58.425
And Purva is just a child, sir!

17:59.745 --> 18:01.905
And all daughters leave one day.

18:05.145 --> 18:05.985
To go to coaching.

18:08.305 --> 18:11.745
Look, sir, Purva is the best
student in school.

18:13.265 --> 18:16.865
But her shoulders aren't strong
enough to support all your dreams.

18:20.585 --> 18:21.425
Please...

18:30.665 --> 18:33.105
<i>Sir, have the admit cards
of those five kids arrived?</i>

18:38.425 --> 18:39.665
NOT YET.

18:41.345 --> 18:43.025
- It's done, sir.
- That's great.

18:43.305 --> 18:44.145
What do I owe you?

18:44.585 --> 18:46.305
Do you think we will take
your money, sir?

18:47.865 --> 18:49.545
Hey! Chaddha! It's you.

18:49.825 --> 18:50.745
Hey, no need for that.

18:51.265 --> 18:53.065
- You recognized me, sir?
- Of course, I did.

18:53.545 --> 18:55.905
Terrible batsmen like you are
only born once a decade.

18:57.585 --> 18:59.105
You used to play so many dot balls.

18:59.345 --> 19:00.385
- Remember?
- Yes, sir.

19:01.145 --> 19:02.905
This-- Oh, is that Jr. Chaddha?

19:03.265 --> 19:04.505
Yes, he is my son, sir.

19:04.785 --> 19:07.865
I am thinking about admitting
him into ABV next month.

19:08.265 --> 19:11.905
I see... so you want me to
bowl for your son now?

19:14.385 --> 19:15.185
What?

19:16.065 --> 19:17.825
Sir, you can fool the world.

19:18.345 --> 19:20.305
But I know all of your secrets.

19:21.905 --> 19:22.905
What... secrets?

19:24.185 --> 19:27.905
Everyone thinks that you go
to school to play cricket for fun.

19:29.265 --> 19:31.305
But I know why you play cricket.

19:32.545 --> 19:34.065
Maybe you don't know this, sir.

19:35.585 --> 19:38.305
I quit studying at the age of 12.

19:39.505 --> 19:42.665
Then someone told me there is a
new headmaster at the school nearby.

19:43.625 --> 19:45.905
Who plays cricket with the kids
in the neighborhood every day?

19:47.545 --> 19:49.105
So, I joined in to play cricket, too.

19:50.665 --> 19:52.505
And you already know how
bad my batting is.

19:54.345 --> 19:55.265
Dot ball.

19:55.665 --> 19:57.025
I used to lose my wicket
at zero runs.

19:58.145 --> 20:00.265
Then you would give me the bat
again the next day.

20:01.025 --> 20:03.545
And you would say,
"Everyone deserves the chance to bat."

20:05.185 --> 20:06.505
Being tempted by the chance to bat,

20:06.785 --> 20:08.265
I used to come to school
every day to play cricket.

20:10.105 --> 20:12.145
And I didn't even realize
when I joined school again.

20:13.865 --> 20:16.425
If you hadn't given me
a bat on that day, sir...

20:18.105 --> 20:20.425
then, sir, my son would never
be holding a pencil.

20:23.185 --> 20:23.985
- Chaddha sir?
- Yes?

20:24.105 --> 20:25.265
Can you please come here
for a minute?

20:25.545 --> 20:27.505
Sir, let me know if
you need anything.

20:27.825 --> 20:28.825
Oh, no, no. That's fine.

20:43.185 --> 20:45.305
No, no, sir. Please, sir.

20:45.425 --> 20:47.745
I can't appear for the board exams, sir.

20:47.865 --> 20:50.665
Oh no, Purva, I am not here
to talk about that.

20:51.545 --> 20:53.825
Someone told me that there is
something else

20:54.425 --> 20:55.825
that you are the best at,
other than your studies.

21:09.145 --> 21:11.385
Will... you be able to do it, sir?

21:11.745 --> 21:14.305
Do you know how many times
I have defeated my sisters?

21:19.105 --> 21:20.105
Actually...

21:21.425 --> 21:22.905
I wasn't that good at the start.

21:23.185 --> 21:26.145
I used to be so
focused on studying that

21:26.265 --> 21:27.785
I forgot to play properly.

21:29.385 --> 21:30.665
And then I slowly figured out

21:31.345 --> 21:34.305
that whether it is a
game or an exam,

21:34.425 --> 21:39.145
you should only focus
on the first question.

21:43.865 --> 21:45.545
And what if we make a mistake?

21:45.665 --> 21:48.385
So what? Everyone makes mistakes.

21:48.745 --> 21:52.585
But you can't forget to enjoy the game
because you're afraid of falling.

21:55.465 --> 21:57.305
You have every right
to make a mistake.

22:05.385 --> 22:06.265
Come on.

22:18.545 --> 22:22.705
<i>My treasure chest of hopes and dreams
Shines like a star above the trees</i>

22:26.745 --> 22:27.705
<i>The darkness couldn't hide me...</i>

22:27.825 --> 22:30.185
DEAR FUTURE VOTER...
VOTE FOR STD! KILL IT AT THE BOARDS!

22:30.985 --> 22:35.265
<i>Now, one by one, let your brilliance flow</i>

22:35.385 --> 22:37.265
SHOW YOUR ADMIT CARDS,
EAT CHOWMEIN FOR FREE

22:37.425 --> 22:39.225
<i>Put on a dazzling show</i>

22:39.585 --> 22:43.465
<i>They keep on marching through
Fear is something they never knew</i>

22:43.705 --> 22:47.145
<i>Rock the world below
Put on a dazzling show</i>

22:47.265 --> 22:49.705
It's fine, you will get your
admit cards by next week.

22:50.505 --> 22:52.465
Take two umbrellas when you
go to the UK.

22:52.825 --> 22:55.225
- It can rain there at any time.
<i>- Raise a cheer!</i>

22:55.745 --> 22:57.345
<i>Raise a cheer!</i>

22:58.065 --> 23:02.025
<i>Let it echo far and near!</i>

23:02.145 --> 23:03.345
<i>Raise a cheer!</i>

23:04.145 --> 23:05.345
<i>Raise a cheer!</i>

23:06.065 --> 23:10.625
<i>Let it echo far and near!</i>

23:18.545 --> 23:20.785
- But you wrote refraction...
- Isn't this Math?

23:20.905 --> 23:22.265
Kuttan, where are you going?

23:22.425 --> 23:23.825
The last chapter is still left. Sit.

23:23.945 --> 23:26.945
Ma'am, I will also get an extra
seven percent for the sports quota.

23:27.305 --> 23:29.065
If I get more than 93%...

23:29.545 --> 23:31.105
then it will be unfair
for the others, ma'am.

23:31.985 --> 23:33.185
Study hard, friends.

23:35.065 --> 23:39.065
<i>Why fear the fury of the storm?
The fight with danger keeps raging on</i>

23:39.185 --> 23:42.705
<i>We won't stop, and we won't bend
We'll keep moving till the end</i>

23:42.945 --> 23:47.105
<i>Time to show the world what we can do</i>

23:47.505 --> 23:51.305
<i>Rock the world below
Put on a dazzling show</i>

23:51.585 --> 23:55.545
<i>They keep on marching through
Fear is something they never knew</i>

23:55.825 --> 23:59.185
<i>Rock the world below
Put on a dazzling show</i>

23:59.305 --> 24:00.865
Why did you make so much yogurt?

24:01.425 --> 24:03.065
Because the board exams
are starting tomorrow.

24:03.185 --> 24:04.425
<i>Raise a cheer!</i>

24:05.065 --> 24:06.545
<i>Raise a cheer!</i>

24:07.345 --> 24:11.305
<i>Let it echo far and near!</i>

24:11.425 --> 24:12.705
<i>Raise a cheer!</i>

24:13.425 --> 24:14.585
<i>Raise a cheer!</i>

24:15.145 --> 24:16.745
Namaste, sir. Namaste, ma'am.

24:18.185 --> 24:19.985
You have to enjoy
every question, child.

24:20.345 --> 24:21.265
All the best.

24:23.065 --> 24:24.865
All the best of luck...

24:24.985 --> 24:26.185
All the best to everyone.

24:26.385 --> 24:27.945
At least stop studying now.

24:30.265 --> 24:31.145
What is wrong, ma'am?

24:31.825 --> 24:35.545
I don't see Gopal, Purav,
and the other kids you taught.

24:38.505 --> 24:40.345
Those five didn't get their
admit cards, sir.

24:42.265 --> 24:43.425
They won't be able
to give the exams.

24:52.425 --> 24:53.425
You're ready!

24:54.305 --> 24:55.225
Just give me five minutes.

24:55.745 --> 24:58.225
Will it be fine if I wear
a <i>bindi</i> for my visa photo?

24:58.945 --> 24:59.985
Yes, it will be fine.

25:02.665 --> 25:03.465
What's wrong?

25:04.425 --> 25:06.065
Sushma, we...

25:08.025 --> 25:09.105
We aren't going anywhere.

25:10.945 --> 25:12.185
I was up all night thinking about it.

25:13.145 --> 25:15.825
<i>To go to Cambridge, I needed to hide
the admit cards of five kids.</i>

25:17.865 --> 25:18.705
But...

25:19.345 --> 25:20.225
But?

25:22.345 --> 25:24.265
But everyone should get a chance
to bat, shouldn't they, Sushma?

25:50.305 --> 25:52.025
It's possible that all five
of them fail.

25:54.065 --> 25:55.065
But I...

25:56.825 --> 25:58.705
don't want to steal the opportunity
to fail from them.

26:33.385 --> 26:36.185
Twenty-five years ago, you said yes...

26:39.105 --> 26:40.745
and changed my life's innings.

26:47.585 --> 26:48.465
That favor...

26:52.425 --> 26:54.705
That favor is something
I've never been able to repay.

26:56.945 --> 26:58.065
I thought...

27:00.665 --> 27:02.145
I will show you the view in England

27:03.065 --> 27:05.985
and give you just a little bit
of happiness.

27:09.905 --> 27:12.985
But instead I broke your heart,
didn't I?

27:19.385 --> 27:20.705
You have broken my heart.

27:23.345 --> 27:24.905
You called my love a favor.

27:27.665 --> 27:31.985
Do you know why no girl
wanted to marry you?

27:33.105 --> 27:35.105
Because when all the boys
of Tinki Toli

27:35.745 --> 27:37.785
were heading to Mumbai
and Bangalore for jobs...

27:40.065 --> 27:40.985
You were the only one

27:42.225 --> 27:46.785
who stayed here and decided to teach
in a newly opened government school.

27:48.825 --> 27:51.945
You turned down a private job with
a good salary to do a job which...

27:52.825 --> 27:54.145
no one wanted.

27:57.225 --> 27:59.425
Which girl would say yes
to a man as crazy as you?

28:03.785 --> 28:07.745
But where everyone saw a madman...

28:10.985 --> 28:16.305
I saw an honest and nice man.

28:18.505 --> 28:20.945
Who cannot hurt anyone,
even if he wanted to.

28:22.985 --> 28:23.905
And on that day...

28:25.905 --> 28:26.865
It wasn't me,

28:28.985 --> 28:31.185
but you who swept me off
my feet, Mr. Tripathi.

28:35.905 --> 28:37.425
And telling me this today...

28:38.985 --> 28:40.785
has reminded me why I chose you.

28:48.585 --> 28:50.425
And as far as the
view is concerned...

28:53.465 --> 28:54.665
this view is not that bad.

29:08.705 --> 29:10.025
Yes, it was going
to come out at 10:00 a.m.

29:10.505 --> 29:12.625
It's just 10:05 a.m.
The results will be out soon.

29:13.505 --> 29:16.145
Yes, you can call me on the
landline. It's been repaired.

29:16.705 --> 29:17.505
Okay, okay.

29:19.905 --> 29:20.865
What is this, Urmila <i>ji?</i>

29:21.705 --> 29:23.105
Will you stay upset even today?

29:24.505 --> 29:26.145
Today could have
been such a happy day.

29:27.385 --> 29:28.665
My sister could have gone
sightseeing around the UK.

29:29.625 --> 29:30.505
But, no.

29:31.145 --> 29:33.065
You hate progress.

29:34.065 --> 29:34.945
What can I do?

29:35.985 --> 29:37.345
There was a great woman
who told me...

29:38.545 --> 29:41.345
to reach greater heights,
she can step on stairs, but...

29:42.105 --> 29:42.985
not on children.

29:51.825 --> 29:52.705
The results are out!

29:54.145 --> 29:55.025
Hello? Hello?

29:55.145 --> 29:57.505
Eighty-five, eighty-seven...

29:58.385 --> 29:59.225
and ninety-three.

29:59.945 --> 30:01.825
Hurry up and calculate what
percentage I got.

30:02.625 --> 30:04.545
Please, God, 90 plus.
Please, God, 90 plus.

30:04.745 --> 30:05.905
Please, please, please.

30:08.025 --> 30:09.585
What? How much is it?

30:10.945 --> 30:13.945
Give me that. Eighty-five, eighty-seven...

30:14.065 --> 30:16.465
Dad, I have 93 in
Social Science, not 83.

30:19.025 --> 30:21.505
90.6%! Dad, it's 90 plus!

30:21.665 --> 30:22.585
90 plus!

30:30.425 --> 30:31.305
Here.

30:31.465 --> 30:32.345
Sir.

30:40.625 --> 30:42.225
I got 98%!

30:42.585 --> 30:44.345
I got 98%!

30:45.305 --> 30:46.945
I got 49%!

30:47.185 --> 30:48.665
I got 49%!

30:48.785 --> 30:50.265
I got 49%!

30:50.665 --> 30:51.465
Sir!

30:53.705 --> 30:55.345
Sir, I passed.

30:55.465 --> 30:56.825
Well done!

31:08.705 --> 31:09.585
Sir?

31:10.465 --> 31:11.825
Sir, one selfie.

31:12.425 --> 31:13.905
Oh... why not?

31:18.505 --> 31:19.345
Enjoy.

31:37.025 --> 31:37.945
Dad?

31:40.265 --> 31:41.105
Are you okay?

31:44.305 --> 31:45.545
Palak, I...

31:47.545 --> 31:48.545
I was happy.

31:49.425 --> 31:50.225
What?

31:50.825 --> 31:52.785
When your result,
for just a little bit...

31:57.985 --> 31:59.345
was calculated incorrectly.

32:00.305 --> 32:01.665
When it was below 90.

32:05.305 --> 32:06.745
So I was happy for some time.

32:12.905 --> 32:14.065
I was 24 years old

32:14.825 --> 32:16.945
when the doctor placed you
in my lap.

32:18.585 --> 32:20.025
How to be a good father?

32:21.185 --> 32:22.545
I didn't have an answer to
this question...

32:24.425 --> 32:25.905
back then,
nor do I have it now.

32:29.785 --> 32:33.425
Child, all I know is that
when you are not around...

32:35.065 --> 32:36.345
I don't feel happy.

32:38.305 --> 32:39.345
Please don't leave the house.

32:41.265 --> 32:43.585
You will be in college
two years later anyway.

32:46.265 --> 32:48.385
Don't be in such a hurry
to leave your dad, child.

32:49.425 --> 32:50.505
Please, my child.

32:51.305 --> 32:54.585
I... I will take you to the
coaching myself. Daily.

32:55.065 --> 32:57.305
I checked. It doesn't
take two hours.

32:57.425 --> 33:01.505
It takes 1 hour and 45 minutes
if we take the flyover. And...

33:03.825 --> 33:04.985
Please don't go, child.

33:07.705 --> 33:08.905
But I have a condition.

33:09.785 --> 33:10.705
Tell me, my child.

33:11.345 --> 33:12.505
Will you introduce me to Guneet?

33:19.545 --> 33:20.585
- Kanchan ma'am?
- Yes?

33:21.265 --> 33:22.705
Oh, I am so sorry.
I am so sorry.

33:22.945 --> 33:24.705
I couldn't sleep the entire night,
then I fell asleep in the morning.

33:24.905 --> 33:26.665
- How was your result?
- Very good.

33:26.905 --> 33:28.945
- Purva got 98%!
- Okay.

33:29.145 --> 33:32.145
Raghunath got 94, and I got 91.

33:32.985 --> 33:34.505
Congratulations!
And what about Purav?

33:36.665 --> 33:37.585
Ma'am...

33:38.225 --> 33:39.545
Purav failed.

33:39.905 --> 33:41.065
For just two marks.

33:41.785 --> 33:42.865
How many kids failed?

33:43.625 --> 33:44.585
Five.

33:51.625 --> 33:54.025
Congratulations, madam.
Please have some sweets.

33:54.545 --> 33:56.625
Please, sir, don't try to
increase my pain with sweets.

33:57.545 --> 33:59.505
I know all the scrape kids failed.

33:59.665 --> 34:00.625
They didn't all fail.

34:04.265 --> 34:05.265
Gopal passed.

34:08.265 --> 34:09.945
I thought all five kids failed.

34:10.105 --> 34:11.945
If Gopal passed, then
who is the fifth one?

34:12.105 --> 34:13.025
Kuttan.

34:14.865 --> 34:16.505
Oh, Kuttan...

34:17.585 --> 34:19.505
Didn't he get an extra seven percent?

34:19.625 --> 34:20.465
He did.

34:21.025 --> 34:22.665
That is why he got a total
of eight percent.

34:24.745 --> 34:25.665
Impressive.

34:26.705 --> 34:29.785
You helped one out of five pass.

34:31.465 --> 34:32.985
You deserve at least
half a <i>kalakand.</i>

34:35.745 --> 34:36.625
No, sir.

34:39.785 --> 34:42.745
If I were a good teacher, then the
other four would have passed as well.

34:44.625 --> 34:45.745
That is true.

34:46.865 --> 34:48.785
You don't have the qualities
of a good teacher.

34:51.065 --> 34:53.785
Because you are not a teacher...

34:54.945 --> 34:55.745
You are a mentor.

34:57.625 --> 35:01.425
In Hindi, a teacher is someone
who teaches a student.

35:02.105 --> 35:05.745
But a mentor is someone
who uses their knowledge

35:05.865 --> 35:08.985
to take children from
darkness into the light.

35:10.105 --> 35:10.985
Take a look.

35:12.065 --> 35:16.465
The kids who wanted to give up
on their studies up until yesterday...

35:16.985 --> 35:18.425
just because of you,

35:20.185 --> 35:21.745
they will try again next year.

35:22.665 --> 35:25.545
The credit for turning these scrapes
into <i>kalakand</i>

35:25.945 --> 35:27.185
goes to just one mentor.

35:28.905 --> 35:29.745
That is why...

35:33.865 --> 35:34.705
Ma'am.

35:35.425 --> 35:37.665
Gyaneshwar sir wants to
see all the SMC members.

35:38.265 --> 35:40.385
I know the kids
worked hard this year...

35:42.265 --> 35:45.705
And I regret that despite
these good results,

35:46.585 --> 35:48.505
you could not make it to
the top ten schools in Delhi.

35:51.105 --> 35:53.745
But... compared to last year,

35:54.465 --> 35:57.945
your school average has gone up
more than 40%!

35:58.065 --> 35:59.385
- Really?
- Oh!

35:59.505 --> 36:00.745
That's great!

36:00.865 --> 36:04.025
Because this is the first time this has
ever happened in the History of Delhi,

36:04.145 --> 36:06.425
that a school has had such
a large turnaround.

36:06.945 --> 36:10.225
That is why I brought
our cameraman with me.

36:11.025 --> 36:11.945
Ranveer, set it up.

36:12.705 --> 36:13.704
- Does that mean...
- Is he going to...

36:13.705 --> 36:16.105
Will our photo be published
in the education department?

36:16.585 --> 36:18.265
Not in. On.

36:19.145 --> 36:20.065
On the cover page.

36:20.185 --> 36:21.185
- Really?
- Cover page!

36:22.665 --> 36:26.145
The TTPS guys will die of jealousy.

36:27.625 --> 36:30.065
Come, come. Please come, all of you.

36:30.745 --> 36:32.265
Please come.

36:33.425 --> 36:34.745
Everyone, settle down.

36:35.025 --> 36:36.585
Shiney sir, please come.

36:39.585 --> 36:43.745
Now everyone will say... ABV!

36:43.945 --> 36:47.065
ABV!

36:48.945 --> 36:49.865
Sir!

36:50.505 --> 36:52.505
There is a "Bolelo" outside.

36:52.945 --> 36:55.025
Look, all of you,
Goldy <i>ji</i> has a rally.

36:55.145 --> 36:57.625
And we need our army back
to pull his chariot.

36:58.185 --> 36:59.905
So listen to us,
and come with us quietly.

37:00.025 --> 37:01.865
Look, we don't want to
come with you.

37:01.985 --> 37:03.185
- We want to study.
- Not this nonsense again.

37:04.185 --> 37:05.905
If everyone starts studying,
who will act like a goon?

37:06.145 --> 37:08.545
- No, you're right.
- Shut up and come with us. Shut up.

37:08.665 --> 37:11.025
- What are you doing?
- Hey, you two!

37:12.625 --> 37:13.945
- Goldy <i>ji!</i>
- What is all this?

37:14.465 --> 37:15.505
What are you two doing?

37:15.705 --> 37:17.305
- Exactly.
- What are you doing?

37:19.865 --> 37:21.745
Everyone is looking here.

37:22.105 --> 37:23.945
Just shut up and sit in the car.

37:25.305 --> 37:27.985
Goldy <i>ji,</i> if the kids don't want to
come with you, then just let them be.

37:28.465 --> 37:29.865
You can always find
other people for your rally.

37:29.985 --> 37:30.985
- Headmaster.
- Yes.

37:31.545 --> 37:33.265
The boundary of
your school ends there.

37:33.745 --> 37:36.305
You are nothing outside of that.
So shut up.

37:38.265 --> 37:39.585
Sir, you can't force them like this.

37:39.705 --> 37:40.665
Hey, NGO!

37:41.385 --> 37:44.705
Only speak to me if you want
charity for earthquake victims.

37:45.065 --> 37:46.184
- Understand?
- Goldy <i>ji...</i>

37:46.185 --> 37:47.145
Shut up!

37:48.265 --> 37:49.865
Now, will you get in, or do
I need to drag you in?

37:50.585 --> 37:51.425
Tell me?

37:55.145 --> 37:55.945
Sir...

38:06.785 --> 38:09.865
How dare you grab an MLA's hand?

38:09.985 --> 38:11.585
You two-bit Henna Artist!

38:15.905 --> 38:20.105
Oh! Did you guys not know?

38:20.265 --> 38:22.145
This macho teacher

38:22.505 --> 38:26.465
draws designs on girls' hands at
weddings, just to make some money.

38:28.785 --> 38:29.865
They don't know...

38:31.185 --> 38:34.664
Hey, I think you should wear
bangles too.

38:34.665 --> 38:37.865
Yeah? And then put on a skirt
and start dancing.

38:37.985 --> 38:40.505
<i>Put on some henna girls</i>

38:40.625 --> 38:43.065
<i>I will get paid for it</i>

38:43.185 --> 38:44.065
<i>Put--</i>

38:47.145 --> 38:48.105
Goldy <i>ji?</i>

38:48.545 --> 38:51.025
Hey, help him up.
Goldy <i>ji?</i> Get up.

38:51.145 --> 38:53.545
Oh! Goldy got bit slap.

38:54.465 --> 38:55.265
Pick him up.

38:55.625 --> 38:57.065
Let go of me! Stay away!

38:58.025 --> 38:58.905
You...

38:59.865 --> 39:00.745
Suspend her!

39:00.865 --> 39:03.065
Suspend this girl right now!

39:04.265 --> 39:05.105
Do it!

39:07.625 --> 39:08.465
I can't do it.

39:09.505 --> 39:12.025
As you said, the school
boundary ends there.

39:13.425 --> 39:14.985
I am nobody out here, Goldy <i>ji.</i>

39:15.105 --> 39:15.985
You, nobody--

39:21.305 --> 39:22.665
All of you...

39:23.665 --> 39:25.505
All of you should look for a new job.

39:26.585 --> 39:28.025
In just one year,

39:28.185 --> 39:31.625
if I don't shut down this
Adarsh Baal Vidyalaya...

39:32.745 --> 39:34.545
then I will change my damn name!

39:39.545 --> 39:41.025
What the hell have you people done?

39:41.505 --> 39:43.985
- Goldy <i>ji.</i>
- Goldy <i>ji</i> can go to hell.

39:53.705 --> 39:54.745
What do we do now?
