00:05:58,274 --> 00:05:59,Who's there?

00:06:02,862 --> 00:06:04,Good morning.

00:06:05,448 --> 00:06:08,Good morning. Sit down.

00:06:10,495 --> 00:06:13,Is there any point
in sitting down?

00:06:13,706 --> 00:06:15,At least
it will rest your legs

00:06:15,875 --> 00:06:18,after all those stairs.

00:06:19,379 --> 00:06:23,I didn't climb the stairs
so I could rest my legs.

00:06:23,799 --> 00:06:27,We both know very well

00:06:27,553 --> 00:06:29,why I'm here.

00:06:29,722 --> 00:06:32,I'm going to ask you
a simple and direct question,

00:06:33,059 --> 00:06:36,and I'd like
a simple and direct answer.

00:06:36,979 --> 00:06:38,Go ahead.

00:06:38,815 --> 00:06:41,You know today's date?

00:06:41,234 --> 00:06:42,The tenth.

00:06:43,069 --> 00:06:45,How many months' rent
do you owe?

00:06:45,613 --> 00:06:47,Three.

00:06:47,615 --> 00:06:49,So 21 rupees.

00:06:49,909 --> 00:06:54,Will you pay now while I rest
my legs, or must I return later?

00:06:54,414 --> 00:06:58,That's three questions,
not one.

00:06:58,584 --> 00:07:00,That's not fair.

00:07:02,588 --> 00:07:05,A lot of things aren't fair,
young man.

00:07:05,883 --> 00:07:09,You seem to think
I should house you for nothing.

00:07:10,012 --> 00:07:12,Is that fair?

00:07:13,099 --> 00:07:17,Is it fair to use up
my electricity in the daytime?

00:07:18,229 --> 00:07:21,You're an educated man.

00:07:21,649 --> 00:07:25,You have pictures
of great men on the wall.

00:07:25,528 --> 00:07:29,But when it comes to the rent,
you hem and haw?

00:07:29,449 --> 00:07:32,That's a sign of greatness too,
you know.

00:07:34,871 --> 00:07:39,I can't win a battle of words
with you, Apu-babu.

00:07:40,042 --> 00:07:44,I could string together
a few choice words too,

00:07:44,755 --> 00:07:48,but they wouldn't be fit
for your young ears.

00:07:48,843 --> 00:07:53,In any case,
I'll be back this evening.

00:07:53,264 --> 00:07:55,Have the money ready

00:07:56,142 --> 00:07:58,or I look for a new lodger.

00:07:58,978 --> 00:08:01,- Simple and direct.
- Simple and direct.

00:09:29,068 --> 00:09:30,Excuse me.

00:09:31,070 --> 00:09:32,Step inside.

00:09:34,907 --> 00:09:37,We're both "Mr. Ray."

00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:39,Hence the confusion.

00:09:44,917 --> 00:09:47,"We are pleased to accept

00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,your short story
'A Man of the Soil'

00:09:51,131 --> 00:09:54,for publication
in the next issue of Sahityik."

00:09:59,056 --> 00:10:01,Not bad news, I hope.

00:10:02,226 --> 00:10:03,Well, good-bye.

00:10:03,894 --> 00:10:07,Tell me,
why don't you ever get mail?

00:10:07,982 --> 00:10:11,Does no one write to you?
Not even a girlfriend?

00:10:11,277 --> 00:10:14,It would be nice to open
a love letter by mistake.

00:10:14,780 --> 00:10:17,Really? Just as well.

00:10:17,450 --> 00:10:20,Put it off
as long as you can.

00:10:20,286 --> 00:10:23,Don't get embroiled
in "matrimonetary" complications.

00:10:23,914 --> 00:10:26,I speak from experience.
- Good-bye.

00:10:43,517 --> 00:10:46,HARIMATI
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

00:11:10,419 --> 00:11:13,- One, two, three.
- What do you want?

00:11:13,839 --> 00:11:17,You advertised
in the paper for a teacher.

00:11:18,511 --> 00:11:19,Qualifications?

00:11:20,888 --> 00:11:25,- Intermediate degree.
- We want a matriculation degree.

00:11:26,769 --> 00:11:29,But that comes
before intermediate!

00:11:29,438 --> 00:11:31,What did the ad say?

00:11:31,565 --> 00:11:34,Well, it did specify
matriculation.

00:11:34,527 --> 00:11:37,Then why harp
on intermediate?

00:11:37,405 --> 00:11:39,What's the point?

00:11:39,532 --> 00:11:43,Would you work for ten rupees
a month? Interm-idiot!

00:11:46,789 --> 00:11:49,Twelve. Your turn.

00:11:49,500 --> 00:11:54,Four, six, eight, ten, twelve.

00:12:02,555 --> 00:12:04,What do you want?

00:12:05,057 --> 00:12:09,I understand you're hiring
for your pharmaceutical plant.

00:12:09,186 --> 00:12:11,I have a... matriculation degree.

00:12:11,981 --> 00:12:13,Have a seat.

00:12:21,323 --> 00:12:23,Any experience in labeling?

00:12:26,704 --> 00:12:28,I can learn.

00:12:42,094 --> 00:12:43,Can't I?

00:12:43,888 --> 00:12:46,All right.
Go through that door

00:12:47,099 --> 00:12:48,and head straight back.

00:12:49,101 --> 00:12:52,Labeling is on the right.
Go have a look first.

00:12:53,105 --> 00:12:55,- Go have a look?
- Go on.

00:17:30,049 --> 00:17:31,What's this?

00:17:31,592 --> 00:17:33,Pulu?

00:17:35,888 --> 00:17:37,- You're a fine friend.
- Why?

00:17:38,057 --> 00:17:40,Left student housing
without a word!

00:17:40,267 --> 00:17:42,I've been looking for you
since 4:00.

00:17:43,062 --> 00:17:45,- How was I to know you'd -
- Quiet!

00:17:45,397 --> 00:17:47,No one knew
where you'd gone.

00:17:48,108 --> 00:17:50,I went to Anil's.
He'd gone to a game.

00:17:50,986 --> 00:17:53,I finally g***t your address
from your private students.

00:17:54,114 --> 00:17:56,Took another half hour
to find this place!

00:17:56,992 --> 00:17:59,You laugh?
You should be ashamed!

00:17:59,536 --> 00:18:03,- You've gotten fat.
- I was fat three hours ago.

00:18:03,582 --> 00:18:06,- How about some tea?
- Where?

00:18:06,168 --> 00:18:07,- A restaurant.
- Is it far?

00:18:08,087 --> 00:18:09,Around the corner.

00:18:10,047 --> 00:18:11,All right.

00:18:12,049 --> 00:18:15,But we have tickets to see
A Widow's Fast.

00:18:15,511 --> 00:18:17,Give me a minute.

00:18:19,598 --> 00:18:23,Why have you been
hiding out up here?

00:18:23,769 --> 00:18:26,You making counterfeit money?
- I wish I could.

00:18:27,439 --> 00:18:30,An oil cooker!
Doing your own cooking?

00:18:30,776 --> 00:18:33,Yeah.
I'll cook for you sometime.

00:18:33,237 --> 00:18:35,Rice and boiled potatoes.

00:18:49,211 --> 00:18:51,What about that railway job?

00:18:52,381 --> 00:18:54,I was sure you'd gotten it.

00:18:57,636 --> 00:19:01,There was a strike on.
They were hiring strike-breakers.

00:19:03,892 --> 00:19:05,I didn't know.

00:19:06,395 --> 00:19:09,- So you've been unemployed?
- I do some tutoring.

00:19:09,982 --> 00:19:13,Turning dullards into prodigies.
- What's it pay?

00:19:13,527 --> 00:19:15,Fifteen rupees a month.

00:19:21,535 --> 00:19:25,- Didn't you learn to type?
- Yeah, in case of emergency.

00:19:25,581 --> 00:19:28,Good. I'll get you a job
when we get back.

00:19:28,834 --> 00:19:31,I know of a firm.
- Get back? From where?

00:19:33,505 --> 00:19:37,My cousin's getting married
on Monday.
