Son, did you come to meet the girl?
Yes, he did,
Speak up!
Behave yourself, son,
He is your family's son-in-law,
Nowadays even son-in-law jump the wall to come in,
Son, don't you know that you cannot meet the girl,,
,,before Muklawa (sending the bride to her husband ceremony) takes place?
If he knew, he wouldn't have embarrassed us,
He wouldn't have humiliated us,
He made a mistake out of ignorance,
Muklawa was going to take place in early spring,
What was the hurry?
Forget it,
Muklawa is anyway going to take place sooner or later,
Let bygones be bygones,
Right,
Forget your customs and traditions,
Isn't there something called as respect anymore?
We'll lose respect in the eyes of the neighbouring villages,
No one will agree to get married into our village,
If we you don't send the girl now,,
,,then who will you sent her with?
We can afford to feed her,
We are still alive,,
We will take care of our sister,
Yes, we will,
We are capable of that,
Headman, what do we do about this?
Bride's family and the council members have decided,,
,,that we are calling off this marriage,
Get lost from here,
"Oh dear,,, if you get married take the girl with you,"
"Which idiot,,"
"Which idiot made the tradition of Muklawa?"
"Which idiot made such a cruel tradition?"
"It has been a year since I got married,"
"Yet I am in my father's house consoling myself,"
"It has been a year since I got married,"
"Yet I am in my father's house consoling myself,"
"Even my shadow now questions me,,,"
"When will my husband come to get the Muklawa,"
"Days are hard to spend, nights are no better,"
"My heart sighs when it faces the winter winds,"
"Days are hard to spend, nights are no better,"
"My heart sighs when it faces the winter winds,"
"I feel like flying towards you,"
"If I could,,,"
"If I could, I would come to get you,"
Thank God it was just a dream,
He shouldn't end up being a eternal bachelor like his uncle,
Don't worry, neighbour,
You will get to eat his wedding's sweets this year,
Rordu's father was having lunch,
I'll go and offer him some buttermilk,
- Take it, - Hurry up,
I'll get going now,
Pluck them all, uncle,
Don't spare a single white strand, Remove them all,
I don't know why I started getting white hair so soon,
I am still so young,
I must have hardly touched 45-50,
Here, have some tea,
You sit with the mirror and the plucker every morning,,
,,like you are going to the in-laws to get your bride,
I'll get my bride home eventually,
Stop taunting me, sister-in-law,
Ranjha's sisters-in-law too had taunted him,
He had gone after Sial tribe's Heer,
I can't say anything about Heer,,
,,but if me warn you, it could get you thrown out of the house,
The boy whom they are going to come to meet is yet to have a bath,
Nimma, have a bath and bathe the cattle too,
- Bride's family is coming to meet you, - Okay, mother,
He sits with a mirror in his hand early in the morning,
He has nothing good to do and he keeps my kids engaged as well,
Wake up!
The sun is up and he is still asleep,
Here son, have some milk,
Bride's family is coming to meet your brother today,
Aunt! I am here!
With the guests?
- No, with a message, - What?
Nathu's mother is dead, They are asking for you,
They say you wail beautifully,
Damn you!
Bride's family is coming to meet brother,
Wonderful, Then we should get new clothes stitched,
We will get to eat Ladoos and Jalebis (sweets),
We will, and we will have some after six months too,
Why? Does your family give birth in six months?
Don't make me break your jaw,
After him it will be my turn,
- Then I'll have kids, - Wonderful!
That's why you are so excited,
Give me that tea,
- It's hot, - Slow down,
It's fun to move my hand over these rings,
Which ones should I wear? Yes,
No, on this finger I'll wear the ring I'll get for Nimma's wedding,
What do you say?
Come on, you are behaving like a pauper,
You don't have anything lacking,
I say you wear all of them,
They will say that our son-in-law doesn't lack anything,
Okay, fine,
Get the scooter ready, I'm coming,
- Go on, - Okay,
It's my hard earned income,
Let me keep it safe,
Or else someone will steal them,
The key,,?
Where's its key?
It's not even here,
I can't find the key!
Forget the key, I cannot find the scooter either,
What! My scooter? Damn,,
Mother, I can't find the key,
Mother, I can't find the scooter,
What do you want, the key or the scooter?
Both,
They are both gone,
Why?
Gulab has taken it to his in-laws',
Mother, I too wanted to take it to my in-laws',
All of you only want to keep visiting your in-laws',
None of you are interested in working,
Your father never goes to his in-laws,
And you and your nephew never leave your in-laws' place,
Remember this:
One day your in-laws will shoo you out of three,,
,,like people shoo away a street dog,
What are you staring at?
Take your wife on a cycle,
They are always off to the in-laws,
Grandpa!
Oh wonderful!
- Hello, father, - Yes!
- Hello dear, God bless you, son, - I seek your blessings, grandpa,
Hello,
I heard the scooter and I thought it was you,
I have brought a proposal for Nimma,
We were expecting your uncle,
He was going to come with a marriage proposal,
Right, he will get your children married,
Father said a million lies were told to get him married,
Look there he is,
Well done!
Well done, son,
There he is,
You and your tall claims,
Who got you married?
When God wishes you get married where you are meant to,
And who found you the one you were meant to be with?
You,
- Hello, - Hello,
Listen nephew, a person who can get you married can get anyone married,
The girl whose proposal I have brought is very beautiful,
Oh I see, So does the girl whose proposal I have brought have pox marks?
We have taken the token rupee from him,
So what? Buy some sweets of the rupee,
It's not a big sum,
He wants to get father divorced, He told him to leave our mother,
I will get you another wife, He is greedy for rings,
You will get him married to the girl I propose,
I'll make them give 100 grams gold?
Is that all?
My family is ready to give 200 grams, Ask the girl,
- I'll get them a scooter, - They are ready to give a tractor,
I'll get both Nimma and Shinda married,
Come on!
I'll get all three of them married, including uncle,
Now what do you have to say?
Brother, I think that proposal is more beneficial,
Even I liked it,
Gulab Singh, use your brains a little,
Get him married before the boys then,
They don't have any shame left,
Gulab, which village you're your proposal come from?
They are from,,
Go on,
Village is not a problem, It can be any village,
I'll get him married to any village you want,
Wherever I go, people don't let me leave,,
,,till I accept to get their daughters married,
Hear that!
People ask me before they give birth to a girl:
"Will I get the girl married?"
Son, you are yet to find a girl for him?
He is yet to find one whereas I've already found one,
For both Nimma and Shinda,
They are two sisters,
Their father is a council member, They are well to do,
They are a highly respected family,
They will fill this courtyard with happiness,
Son, Nimma is not getting any younger,
Let us accept your uncle Bhag Singh's proposal this time,
Do as you wish, what can I say? You will regret this later,
It's okay, son, Calm down,
What is wrong with you?
Why do you look so sad?
I am thinking of saying it to father,
What?
Taro, I don't want to get married,
What!
You don't want to get married?
Why?
After marriage, all husbands get drunk and beat their wives,
I also heard that they cuss them,
Why would they cuss us?
Not all of them are the same,
And plus, we both are getting married into the same family,
If they say anything,,
,,we'll hold their family under our knees and beat them up,
Both the boys are very handsome,
They are well respected as well,
Both your girls will lead a luxurious life here,
They are a very good family,
Such families are very hard to find,
You are right,
Boys are very good,
We like this proposal,
Wonderful,
I'd say, you have a good look at time,,
You can say no one if you want to, we don't like people complaining later,
No, it's not so,
Both of them are very handsome,
Brother wouldn't have said yes had there been any flaw,
Come on, you don't find flaws just by sitting here,
You find them from outside,
Will it be better if you have to take your married,,
,,daughter back home in future?
You should refuse now if you want to,
Why would say no? Why should we not go ahead with this alliance?
Such families are very hard to find,
Such good proposals are a rarity,
I'd say you should have a good look, What's the hurry?
How do you expect them to take a good look?
By making giving them a physical examination?
We should have taken a good look at you, but we couldn't,
What did you say?
Look, you like this proposal, so do we,
So what are we waiting for?
Bhag Singh, offer sweets to everyone,
Phattu! Phattu!
- Phattu! Phattu! - 'I was left alone,'
- What bit you? - Marriage!
It is a marriage or hard work? Look at you panting,
Your brother who is getting married, right?
No, I too am getting married along with him,
Wonderful,
You are going to get married to each other? Keeping it in the family, huh?
No, we two brothers are getting married to two sisters,
Okay, so you are getting bricks from the same oven,
It is going to be fun,
Stop hugging me now,
Save some for the later,
Brother,,
- Yes? - Are you asleep?
Can I say something?
Yes speak?
It will be great fun, we both will be getting married together,
We will wear similar turbans and headgears,
Brother,,
I'll take the saloon, you can take the upper porch,
I'll ask my wife to handle the morning meals,
You ask yours to handle the evening meals,
Well done, wise guy,
You want your wife to be free early to romance with you,
And my wife will keep blowing into the stove till late in the night,
Brother?
Can I say something?
As we are getting married together,,
,,we will also have kids together,
They way you are behaving, I guess you'll have them first,
He has no patience,
Brother? Are you awaking?
I haven't seen my future wife as yet,
Hey!
They must be just like me minus the beard and the moustache,
Behave yourself, Go to sleep,
Listen to him,
Uncle,, I cannot sleep,
- Pass me my stick,,, - No, I'm very sleepy,
- I'll sing him a lullaby, - I'm very sleepy,
No,
I won't stay here anymore,
I told you, I am leaving,
You invite people home and then insult them,
First you offered me crooked Jalebis,
Then you offered me bland Gulab Jamuns (Sweets),
If you have Gulab Jamuns with chutney,,
- ,,then they are bound to taste bland, - True,
Here, I am pleading to you, son-in-law,
You shouldn't do this,
I said I am leaving, That means I am leaving,
You don't value good people,
You keep follow crazy people,
No son, don't say that,
- 2 days,, - Don't go, son,
I will apologise to you,
Apologise, Apologise a hundred times,
Why did you accept the proposal uncle brought you?
Please stay back,
Don't be so stubborn,
My brothers are finally getting married,
They say you turn dark if you stay angry for long,
You can stay here forever if you want,
If I leave now, I'll never come back,
- I'm leaving, - No, no,
- Don't, - Don't do that,
Look, I am touching your feet here,
I am leaving,
- I said I am going to leave, - You are a smart man,
Everyone's asking you to stay, Don't go,
I said I'm leaving so it's final,
Go then,
I'll stay back if you insist so much,
Let me tell you, I have a big ego,
If I say I am leaving that means I am leaving,
I stopped because uncle stopped me, I have no choice,
Why are you standing here? Go and get me some tea,
Go, dear,
Add sugar in it,
Here dear, this is for your sister-in-law,
And this is the ring for your sister-in-law's husband,
Look at it,
You don't need to give so much, aunt,
Our girls are so beautiful,
No, this is a wrong tradition,
You give them your girls and limitless goods as well,
Can't help it, dear, One has to do all this,
You ask your mother not to give it to you,
- Give me that, - You are back!
- Here's the jewellery, - Yes,
What's wrong, dear?
Why do you look so sad?
Father, I won't like it over there,
We won't like it here without you either, dear,
If we would, we would never send you away,
But we cannot help it, this is what the customs dedicate,
Mother, whose name is written on Channo's plates?
Nirmal Singh,,
Mother, she'll know when we'll get her husband's name engraved,
Shinda!
"Sacred cloth tied across the branches we have made wishes,"
"Hands we use to spin cotton,,"
"Lips we use to sing songs,,"
"Partridge use their wings to fly and make us jealous,,"
"Leaving the work behind, I took your bangle's size,"
"I can clearly hear your heart beat,"
"The water in the well has turned pink,"
"Two souls have united,"
"This jewellery for my wedding,, A brother, very close to me,"
"After marrying me away, my mother will be all alone,"
"Everyone's dancing,"
"Everyone's celebrating with joy,"
"There is a glow on everyone's face,"
"The water in the well has turned pink,"
"Two souls have united,"
You eager lad, the one you are pulling is mine,
This is hers,
Brother!
When are we going to sleep?
Are you going to sleep with me tonight?
I mean,, try to understand,
Have some patience, We will go to sleep after the guest leave,
Okay,
- They drink a lot, - Here,
They drank half the drum,
I am not as lowly as you are treating me,
By accepting his proposal, you have insulted me,
No one even treats a servant like you treated me,
If you didn't make them look after me at the wedding,,
,,then why did you even bother to take me to the wedding?
Why are you so upset, brother-in-law?
What's happened, tell me,
Ask me what didn't happen,
Fine, tell me what didn't happen,
They took me to the wedding and got me humiliated,
Do you understand humiliated?
Yes, I do, you got insulted,
He's the only smart one in this family,
The rags we use at home are better than the blankets their in-laws gave,
Then that's Nimma's in-laws fault,
Don't try to act smart, father,
It is the fault of your eldest son-in-law,
He got you pauper in-laws, which match his status,
Listen you monkey,,
If you are married to his daughter,,
,,then I too got married into this family,
I am the eldest son-in-law of this family,
You don't stand a chance against my aunt,
I will support brother-in-law,
Stale uncle,, fresh brother-in-law,
Very good, - He's drunk,
How much did you offer me to drink?
We offer than much to our pets!
Son, you shouldn't say that,
Before I beat up both the eldest son-in-law and the youngest son-in-law,,
,,you should give both of them one,
What?
Peg,
Sons-in-law will sleep inside, you sleep outside,
Where will my wife sleep?
At the upper porch,
And brother's wife?
At the upper porch,
- Both of them at the upper porch? - Get lost!
Mother, please listen to me,
What's wrong, Shinda? Sleep here, with me,
Let others sleep,
Everyone needs to get up early tomorrow,
Thank God you are sleeping here,
I won't sleep here, I'll sleep upstairs,
Go and sleep whenever you want,
"God bless your son, o' matchmaker,"
Let's go,
Please move aside,
Shinda, don't sit here, Come out!
Okay,
You get in first,
Move aside, dear,
- Please shift a little, - Get out!
Please move a little,
I told you to get out, didn't I?
He won't back off?
I want to sit too,,
Let's go,
Oh no!
[Wedding Folk song]
Come on, get in,
Mother!
There you go, Keep this inside, Over there,
Wait!
- Wait for me! - What's wrong with him?
I too want to go with you,
- Listen to me! - Shinda, where are you going?
Where are you going? Come here and listen to me,
Why didn't they take me along? I too wanted to go there,
You cannot go with them, son,
Why can't I? Brother went with them,
He got married, that's why he had to go with them,
It's not like any different for me, I too got married,
Let me explain,
They will send their eldest daughter back with your brother,
They still need to make a dowry for her, prepare her for a married life,
Dowry? What's that?
- Beddings, clothes, - Shoes and accessories
I don't want beddings, I don't know, I want my wife back,
Listen to me you fool,
They will do her Muklawa after a year, Let's go,
Come with me, son, Come inside and eat something,
- He is getting angry for no reason, - Fool,
They sent her back like some borrowed utensils,
96,,!
97,,!
98,,!
One is still less,
I have already counted it thrice, I cannot them all, I am leaving,
Look at that, What is this?
100!
Instead of putting dents on the plate put a dent on your uncle,
Others have planetary positions to blame,,
,,but for him his uncle is the one causing all the trouble,
If I had gotten you married, the girl would never go to parental home,
You are right, son-in-law,
Muklawa should be done right after the wedding,
Otherwise, the situation is like handling a glass tumbler,,
,,you always fear that you might slip off your hands,
- Right? - Hmm,
"I feel proud my husband is a landlord!"
Go on!
Hey girl, take the food upstairs,
Take the dry fruits infused milk with you,
Why don't you take a raddish?
He is being offered delicacies,
Here you go,
Don't offer any to me, I'm angry, I'll get high,
This will help your anger,
Take it,
Come on drink it,
It's not every day that your son-in-law serves you a drink,,
,,that too in his in-laws' house,
I must say, after you drink it, don't hurt the matchmaker to vent your anger,
I know it is all his fault,
You should be brave like I am,
Though it wasn't son-in-law's fault,,
,,yet I started beating him up in the market,
That's what you call manliness,
Anyway, who pays heed to me,
I am just a son-in-law,
That too a small one,
Big or small doesn't matter,
A son-in-law is a son-in-law,
A bee is so small, bit stings big,
You are absolutely right,
They didn't even showed you your wife's face,
Heed my advice and be brave,
You should break both, this marriage and the matchmaker's leg,
He'll get his leg plastered and I'll find you another match,
Brother, will the Muklawa take place immediately in your case?
Of course! Even if they might delay the wedding,
They didn't even show you your wife's face,
For you I will make sure you see all your sisters-in-law too,
And you will go alone to her house after the wedding,
Now let me tell you something,
You shouldn't stand on the terrace and shout out aloud,
And you shouldn't pass from here and stand there like a man,,
,,and start abusing your uncle,
Move it uncle, this man needs to move,
We have paved the path for you,
Now you see a man pass from here without any fears,
Go for it,
Who says the Muklawa won't take place?
It will take place,
Not once but twice,
My brother-in-law will do it for me,
My eldest brother-in-law,
Aunt, who is his eldest brother-in-law?
Shut up, it's just the alcohol talking, Let him blabber,
Look,,
Here I am apologising,
I am not a part of this,
No one should assume that I instigated him,
He is very angry,
There is a fire,
He sat there and kept on saying that he wants to beat up his uncle,
Uncle, wait there, I am coming,
- Wait right there, - Keep drinking, Don't bother,
- Handle him, - Listen to me!
I don't care, what you did with me was not right,
I want to see my wife's face,
Show me my wife's face,
Bring my wife home, uncle,
What you did with me was not right,
Have you lost your mind, Shinda?
What else can they do other than cause a commotion?
All your worries are over now that both your sons got married,
- Kartaro,, - What?
Get my Ruldu married as well,
Talk to Bhag Singh about it,
He finds good matches,
He'll find him one, Don't worry,
I'll talk to him,
Okay, sister,
I came here to get buttermilk,
I'll get going now,
Ruldu's father will say that I got stuck here,
Hurry up then,
I will get his son married as well,
- Have some, - No, thanks,
- Sister? - Sure,
Congratulations, son-in-law, you managed to bag another ring,
That's enough,
- I won't have any more of it, - That's enough,
Is a monkey show happening over there that everyone's attention's there?
How about paying attention over here as well?
What's wrong, son-in-law?
Do any of you know that I'm upset since last night?
How would we know, son?
Now you know,
Yes, now we know,
Then what's stopping you?
Get up and cajole me,
Apologise whoever wants to,
Thank God everything went off smoothly,
Here have a Ladoo to celebrate that,
Bhag Singh, tell me, how is my daughter doing?
Your daughter is absolutely fine,
She has gelled in well with that family,
She is very happy,
Thank God,
I just pray that our families get along just like that,
It's all in God's hands,
They are now waiting for Taro,
Really?
There you go!
They are waiting for you,
By the way, if you want, I can talk to aunt,,
,,they will send you to your in-laws' house,
Shut up! Listen to her yap,
Along with the matchmaker,
You cannot stay here forever,
- Aunt, listen! - Shut up!
- Aunt, listen! Taro is saying that,, - Shut up!
Witch!
Wake up, son,
Feed the cattle,
Shinda, wake up, my boy,
The sun is shinning high in the sky,
Come on, wake up,
Come on, you need to go to the fields,
Where is brother? Why isn't he going?
Son, why are you behaving like this?
He is a married man now,
Wake up, my boy,
Wake up,
I too got married, it's not like it was any different for me,
Muklawa's ritual was performed for him and not you,
Drink the tea and change your clothes,
Be a good boy,
Get down already or you only going to get down after you have a child?
What's wrong? Why are you so shy of me?
You don't like me?
No, it is not so,
I liked you a lot,
But I don't like people who get drink alcohol,
Fine, then I won't drink it anymore,
Can I say something, Channo?
Your words are sweet,,
Your breath is fragrant,,
Your tresses like snake,,
Your lips hide a shy smile,,
Your eyes have a hint of hesitation,,
You give angels a run for their money,
God blessed this fool with such beauty,
Thank you, God,
I cannot believe myself,
- Come downstairs, dear, - Mother,
- Wait,, - I am leaving,
Uncle, I have started hating the word Muklawa,
Whenever someone talks about Muklawa,,
,,I feel as if they are teasing me,
I feel like thrashing them,
Don't get angry, nephew,
Keep calm,
Why, are you going for Muklawa?
Sit down,
- Wait,, - What happened?
What is wrong with you?
Say Muklawa! Say it!
- Muklawa, - Say Muklawa!
Muklawa - Let him go!
Don't hurt that poor man, you will get cursed,
Then the Muklawa will never take place,
Get up, my brother,
Bhola, get some water for him,
Water won't be enough to nullify his curse,
Either get beaten up like you just beat him up,
It doesn't work like that,
Then you get beaten up,
Uncle, I want to talk to you,
I,,
I want a margosa stick,
It's used,
Here son, have some tea,
Uncle, I want to see my wife's face,
You are the matchmaker,
Be a brother and show me my wife's face,
I'll always be grateful to you,
Well done, young man,
You want me to take you to your in-laws, show you your wife's face,,
,,and invite doom for myself?
Don't you have any shame?
Your beard is still black, at least take my white beard into consideration,
He's one impatient lad, Listen to him,
Get lost,
It's not like we had lifted the veil on the same day!
Your wife will be here in 10 months, you can see her face then,
He wants to see her face!
- Shinda! - Yes,
I want to go to your in-laws' village, Chakbaktua,
To Jugdev's house,
The mini bus hasn't come as yet,
No problem grandma, I'll drop you, I am going there anyway,
- Come on, - Let's go, son,
I used to travel like this with Bhag's father,
He used to drive the cycle all the way,
Then?
Then what, we used to reach the village,
Grandma, when did your Muklawa take place?
4-5 after our wedding, son,
Grandpa never meet you for 4-5 years after the wedding?
How could we?
He tried his tricks, sent messages for me,,
,,but how could I agree to meet him?
I was a beautiful girl who was at her prime,
My father was strict and my brother was even worse,
People across 15 villages were scared of them,
So I was bound to be scared of them,
So that means grandpa didn't get to meet you,
No, son,
We have reached your in-laws house,
That's it, Stop right here,
Get down, grandma,
Shinda, have some tea,
Open the door,
I seek your blessings, grandma,
God bless you, dear,
Oh my God!
What are you doing here?
Show me your face,
No,
I feel shy,
Just once, please?
No way,
Once, just once,
Then I'll leave,
- No, - Please, show,,
- Let go of my hand, - Please, show,
Show me your face,
Show me your face, please,
Whose face do you want to see?
- My wife's! - I'll show you her face!
Don't you have any shame?
The Muklawa is still pending and he wants to see his wife's face,
When I didn't show my face to Bhag's father,,
,,how can you expect to see your wife's face?
I'll walk the rest of the way,
What is he up to! Look at his actions!
He's twisting wrists here,
Who are you dreaming about with your eyes open?
The same moon shines at your sister-in-law's place too, right?
No, sister-in-law lives on the polar star,
Of course, the same moon shines there as well,
You,,
You know, what I dream about?
I'll go to water the fields and your sister-in-law will get the fodder,
When I chop the fodder, she assists me,
I feed the cattle and she milks them,
Do you want a wife or a helper?
Stop joking,
If she is so beautiful in my dreams,,
,,then how beautiful must she be in reality,
I think you should make do with such dreams the whole year,
Why should I make do with the dreams?
I'll see her face for real one day soon,
Let's see,
Sister, earlier house used to feel so full,
It feels so empty now,
From the time Channo came here our house haunts us,
We don't like anything without her,
Yes,
Even Taro doesn't like being there alone anymore,
It's okay,
Soon Taro too will be coming here,
Both the sister will have a good time here,
We too don't want to send her away,
We have got attached to her so quickly,
We don't feel that she is new here,
We feel as if she was born and brought up here,
She is always smiling,
She has gelled in with us so well,
We must have donated pearls in previous lifetime,,
,,to get such good in-laws for our daughters,
You are right, Jugdeep Singh,
Should I help you?
I'll wear them on my own,
Brother,,
Someone is calling out to you,
- Who? - I don't know, someone,
That's strange,
- Sister-in-law,,! - Yes?
You are going back to your parental home?
I have something for Taro, please give it to her,
What?
This,
What is this?
No, you don't open it,
- Let me see, - No,
Tell her I got them made especially for her from the jeweller,
Ask them to wash her heels and wear them,
Any other message?
One more message, tell her,,
- Don't you want to leave, dear? - Fine, I know what to say,
I'll pass on the message,
Who was calling out to me?
There was someone, I don't know someone was calling out for you,
- I promise there was someone,, - Behave!
Channo! Channo!
- Give it to me or I'll pull your plaits, - I won't give it!
- Listen to me, - No!
- Stop it, you two, - Channo!
- Mother! - Idiots,
You two are all grown up and married now!
Don't you feel any shame while jumping like kids?
Mother, she has something that belongs to me,
Mother, ask her what it is,
What is it?
Mother, she is talking about these anklets,
Oh my God!
From where did you get those anklets, dear?
Mother, my brother-in-law gave them to me,
And you know what he told me?
To wash the heels before wearing them,
Go away!
Let me work,
Mother, tell me something,,
Did father ever give you a gift?
Right, he did,
- Tell me! - Mother doesn't care,
Why are you so shy?
- Tell me, - Yes,
- What did he give you? - Yes, he gave me a gift,
- What? - This basket,
I've strained my neck because of the daily chores,
"Buy me anklets so that I can keep on dancing,"
"Buy me anklets,,"
Come on Taro, go to sleep,
It's just anklets, it's not Shinda that you keep staring at it,
Brother, you have been to our in-laws',
How does my wife look like?
I have seen my sister-in-law,
She looks just okay,
Your brother-in-law must be okay looking,
I am sure my husband is better looking that my brother-in-law,
Next time take me with you,
If I take you along, then you too will meet the same fate as uncle's,
You will stay married but never have a Muklawa,
Will father say something if I see him before Muklawa?
Go to sleep, What will father say?
He is your husband, Go to sleep,
Brother, if a man teases his wife a little before the Muklawa,,
,,will her family beat up the man?
No, they beat you up if you don't,
Mother, why isn't brother back as yet?
He'll be back soon,
They must be on their way back,
By when will they come?
Why do you keep asking that?
They will come, You continue eating,
They are here,
- Hello, sister-in-law, - Hello, brother-in-law,
- Is everyone fine at home, sister-in-law? - Everyone's fine,
- Everyone? - Everyone,
- Your parents? - They are fine too,
Others too?
All the cattle and calves are fine, Stupid,
- I seek your blessings, mother, - God bless you, dear,
Have a happy married life, May God keep your life filled with colours,
I think she is either too stupid or too smart,
She isn't coming to the point,
Come here, brother-in-law,
Yes, sister-in-law?
Sit down,
The one you are asking about is also fine,
And she has sent this for you,
She bought it from a fair,
It's tight, sister-in-law,
It is supposed to be worn on this finger,
Uncle, when your Muklawa took place,,
Muklawa didn't take place! It was cancelled,
Yes I mean after your Muklawa was cancelled,,
,,did you manage to see aunt?
I tried to once,
Then what happened?
Then,,
You know your uncle always goes big or goes home,
So you did go big?
No,
Her father sent me home,
He got her married,
Then I thought if she isn't attached to me,,
,,then why should I spend my life in tears?
I believe that it is better if Muklawa happens right after the wedding otherwise,,
Your life is a mess,
That means no one sees his wife before Muklawa?
No, look at Manna's son Mitha,
He was brave, He went to his in-laws house before the Muklawa,
See, Manna's son Mitha,
- Thank you, uncle! - Damn you!
Idiot!
I have to do all the work on my own, They have nothing to do,
Phattu!
Let's go, we are going to see your sister-in-law,
Like she is not my sister-in-law but a fair that we are going to see,
We will go,,
But what if you meet the same fate as your uncle's?
Why? Can't I be lucky as Mitha?
We will know that after we go there,,
,,whether your fate is like Mitha's or uncle's,
Come on, get up, Roll it up and carry it along,
I cannot add onions in if I roll it up,
Place it on the top then, Hurry up, Be a good brother,
Fix the chain,
Greetings,
God bless you, son,

Oh Goddess, what wrong has my son done?
Son?
What is wrong with you?
Why are you sitting like this?
Son, which witch has possessed him?
- He is the one went to possess the witch, - What?
Yes, I'll go and get the herbs from the sage,
- He will get better, - Go, hurry up son,
- I'll be right back, - Son,,
I'll go and get some holy water,
I'll be right back,
- Dear? - Yes, mother?
- Give him some milk, - Okay, mother,
So that he feels better, May God bless him,
You fool, your shattered my dreams,
Now come on, don't make me mourn instead of celebrate upcoming events,
Here Shinda, have some milk,
What is wrong with you?
Which witch did you see as such?
Shinda? Shinda!
Not a witch, sister-in-law, I saw your sister,
You saw my sister?
I swear on God, sister-in-law,,
Your sister is very beautiful,
Oh my God!
- You went to our house? - Yes,
In broad daylight?
If father had seen you there he would've cancelled the Muklawa,
Oh God!
Even my daughter-in-law must be thinking,,
,,that Gela's nephew is so handsome,
He saw her, she didn't see Gela's nephew's face,
Yes, uncle,
You can show your daughter-in-law your nephew's face,
Like uncle has a binocular,
In this world, only one person can show her your face,
Who?
That is,,
He,,
Park the cycle here,
Why, do you think it will get stolen?
No, its tyres might get punctured,
Which way?
Follow me,
- I am right behind you, Follow me, - Keep walking straight,
Use the torch,
Let's go,
- Don't make any noise, Keep walking, - Let's go,
Don't get us into trouble by opening your mouth, uncle,
"Hide your face, oh delicate damsel,"
Why are you throwing the light on the tree?
It's not like sister-in-law is a pigeon,,
,,who is sitting on the branch in the middle of the night,
Shut up,
Don't joke with me,
Don't do it, Uncle is a very experienced man,
Experienced, how, by watching the Englishwomen?
He is still single, isn't it?
Stop joking or I will slap you,
Everyone knows that I have always never,,
Uncle!
Don't mess with the tree,
Be careful,
- Let's go, - Be careful, don't jump on the stove,
Come on,
- Get down, - Jump,
Make sure no one hits us,
Careful,
Come on, follow me,
Come,
Come on,
- Nephew,, - Yes, uncle?
How will we know which one of them is yours?
He could smell them,
The one with pink veil,
Second bed,
Slowly,
Slow down, Uncle slow,
Can I go, uncle?
- Bye, - Bless you,
Be brave,
My brave son,
Nephew, I thought of something,
- What? - Shouldn't we let it be?
You thought of that too quickly,
I want to see her,
Let's go then, Let's go,
- Doomed! - Catch him,
Who is it? Get up! Catch them!
They are running away,
Come, There he go!
- Catch them! - Run!
- Jora! Khaila! We have intruders in our village, - Careful!
- Let's go, uncle, - Get them!
- Run! Run! - Catch them,
Wake up!
- Get them! - Find out who they are,
Who are they?
Greetings,
Let us go, we are related to them,
I am not,,
What happened Baldev? Those men,,
Who? Come here! Toranta!
- Yes? - Get the sticks!
- Let's beat them up! - I'll get them,
Listen to me,
We won't spare them today,
We will nab them and teach them a lesson,
Catch them! Catch them!
- Get a rope, Yes, get it, get it, - Tie them up,
Who are you?
Uncle, I am from Gurnam's,
What's the commotion about?
I don't know, I guess they caught two men,
I didn't recognise you,
He is running away, Catch him,
Brother-in-law, people visit the in-laws with a lot of desires in their heart,
And we have come here with the council members,
Look, as far as I know, it wasn't just the two of them,,
,,there was another person with them,
If there was another guy with them then where did he go?
Did the earth swallow him or did he vanish into thin air?
I don't know where he went,
I think we should pardon them, Give them another chance,
Why? So that they go to someone else's house?
Look, I am a man of principles,
When you make a mistake or someone else does,,
,,a mistake will always be a mistake,
I think you should also tie up the matchmaker,
Why are they here anyway?
Tell us! Why did you come here?
I left from the fields and,,
I have night blindness,
I didn't realise how I ended up here,
Fine, we believe you that you went to that house by mistake,
But that wasn't your case, was it?
Didn't you feel ashamed to enter their house?
Yes I do, I also feel like drowning myself,
Cover their faces with black ink and make them sit on donkeys,
Why just them?
I say you should do the same with the matchmaker,
Why are you blaming me? I am not related to them,
I just fixed his wedding,
No matter what you say, you fixed the wedding,
No matter what you say uncle, you are the culprit,
Your face will also be blackened,
Think before you speak, nephew,
I wonder how their family ended up with such disgusting people,
Both my sons-in-law don't even set their foot on wet dung,
They don't know,,
,,that the leader of this gang is his son-in-law,
Don't make me laugh, uncle, They will start beating us up again,
I apologise to all the council members,
We feel embarrassed, sir,
What do I say?
Embarrassing you embarrasses us as well,
It is better to keep quiet about it, brother,
But I don't want to see them in your house again,
You won't,
Go,, slow, son,
The one who has never even hit a dog also hit hard,
I can never repay this favour of yours,
You saved my honour, you didn't take my name,
You should be thankful, you hid and saved your life,
They have turned us black and blue,
And we also get a bad name,
We cannot face anyone in the village anymore,
Don't worry,
Tell me, what can I do for you?
You just pray before God that the wounds heal fast,
Son, if we hadn't pretended to faint,,
,,then they would have beaten us flat,
Uncle, I think they almost managed to make you flat,
Get up,
Eat something,
Eat it,
Let bygones be bygones,
Take this,
Eat your meal,
I cannot swallow down anything,
Kartar Kaur,,
I think we should quietly accept Shinda's Muklawa,
Before anything untoward happens,
I too think we should talk to Bhag Singh and ask him to approach them,
That will also suppress this matter,
I am worried about just one thing,
Shinda's marriage is now in a fix because of his uncle,
Take this,
I would have believed it if Shinda was behind it,
But why did uncle go there?
But why would even Shinda do such a thing?
The Muklawa takes place after four months,
But uncle,,
Now I too am worried about the Muklawa,
What must father and uncle be thinking about this?
They must be wonder what kind of a family have they got related to,
Don't worry so much,
I am here, I'll handle everything,
Wow!
Gathering your brother-in-law's dowry, sister?
I heard the council made him leave the house,,
,,and asked him to stay at the fields?
Make sure you send some bandages too,
I heard Nimma's in-laws turned him black and blue,
What can we do, sister?
He caused us humiliation at this age,
He has embarrassed us,
Nimma's father is too embarrassed to even come out,
I must say, the village which was supposed to give you gifts will now taunt you,
Thank God Nimma's wedding took place,,
,,and Nimma's in-laws didn't take his wife back because of this,
You should delay the younger one's Muklawa,
It will suppress the matter,
Otherwise, they might tie and beat you up as well,
Okay, sister,
We will think about what we need to do,
Don't you feel any shame?
I feel so ashamed, I swear,
See you Kartaro, I'll get going now,
Rodhu's father will say:
"What were you doing at those shameless people's house!"
Taro,,
Hmm?
I heard they tied your uncle-in-law around a tree?
You know the whole village gathered around it,,
,,like a monkey is performing tricks,
Why did uncle come here?
I think the accompanist got caught instead of the thief,
Your husband must have come here but poor uncle,, got caught,
Why would he come here?
Now if my bride is so beautiful even I would jump the wall to meet her,
By the way Taro,, just think about it,
What if it was your husband instead of him?
You would stand on the rooftop and look at him,
He would look back at you,
Both of you would keep looking at each other,,
,,and the whole village would keep looking at you two,
Wait, let me teach you a lesson,
- Aunt! - You talk too much!
Okay, you are not satisfied by punishing someone already,,
,,now you want to punish me as well!
- Aunt! Listen! - Oh really, I'll teach you a lesson,
Girls, keep quiet and continue working,
What are you doing, girls?
Hey,,
Have some tea,
Brother,,
- You want to go meet your wife? - Yes,
Okay, bye,
We won't go to her home,
We won't even go to her village,
We won't go anywhere,
Mother said we are out of fertilizers, I need to get that,
If you want to go alone I'd suggest you have some poppy husk before you leave,
Because when you are beaten up, it hurts a lot,
Bye,
Give it to me, sister-in-law,
Don't tire yourself,
Sister-in-law,,
You should holler me if you need any help,
I'll come to help you,
Sister-in-law,,
Sister-in-law, you shouldn't work so hard, you'll get tired,
Give it to me,
Sister-in-law, when your sister comes here,,
,,then you two can share the work,
And me and brother will work together,
Sister-in-law, I wanted to ask something,
Wonderful,
Mother, you make some tea, I'll help her,
What's wrong?
Why are you being so sweet?
What's on your mind?
Nothing sister-in-law, I just wanted to ask,,
,,whether your sister ever moves out of the house,
No, she doesn't,
Not even sometimes?
Sometimes she goes to Peer Baba on Thursdays,
I too go there on Thursdays,
Oh really? Then today is Thursday, why didn't you go?
Today is,,
I'm going,, I was about to,
Mother, I don't need tea anymore,
Brother-in-law, today is Wednesday, come back,
Help me make vermicelli,
- Come, - Today is Wednesday,
- Come on, - Mother, make some tea,
Help me with the vermicelli,
You have never visited this place before,
What made you come here today?
I will meet your sister-in-law here today,
Oh really?
She will come here to pay homage,
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
Why, you would have dressed better?
No, I wouldn't have even looked at you,
Spare me, brother,
I have gone through a lot because of you,
I had to change disguises, I got thrashed,
I am going in with you, You are on your own,
Don't worry, come along,
- I don't want to go, - Come on,
I don't want to go,
I won't support you in wrong things, Go on your own,
Fine then I will go alone,
- You will go alone? - Yes, go away,
- Are you sure? - Yes, I am,
Don't insist, I'll come along,
He keeps begging me,
Did your tie yours?
Let's go,
You go and look for her here, I'll go there,
If I get lost, get my name announced,
- Go! - It's very crowded out here,
- They are so beautiful, - I want this red one,
We'll buy it for your wedding,
This one is beautiful as well,
- How much is this for? - 50 rupees,
Okay,
Did you recognise me?
No,
I am the one who just passed from here like this,
Who are you?
Nobody,
Do you see my sandals? It heavy,
I'll keep hitting and won't even count,
You can count later, first let,,
Don't make us beat you up, I'm warning you,
What nonsense are you blabbering about?
Stupid,
Let's go, they are shameless,
- Let's go, - Look at his face,
What is he up to, this monkey faced,
She is so tiny yet she said fifteen curses in one breath,
How come they think we are shameless?
- Can't they see our faces? - Let's go,
I felt like punching them on their face,
You won't give up?
- He wants to talk to you, - What does he want to say?
Why are you so hyper?
Say it,
I am your that,
Who that?
The one whose name you shouldn't take,
Your sister's brother-in-law,
Whatever,
"Buy me embellished sandals,"
"Get me 40 silk dresses too,"
"Buy me embellished sandals,"
"Get me 40 silk dresses too,"
"I keep playing with my extensions at the fair,"
"I want colourful bangles too, my dear,"
"Give me a tour of Punjab on a cart, my dear,"
"Listen to me, oh beautiful,"
"You are so small, yet your list is quite big,"
"Listen to me, oh beautiful,"
"You are so small, yet your list is quite big,"
"I am not a man, if I don't fulfill your dreams,"
"I'll have you covered in gold from head to toe, my dear,"
"I'll fulfill all your desires, my dear,"
"I keep running with a red embroidered veil,"
"My mesmerising eyes require kohl,"
"Buy me a kohl box,"
"Apply henna on my hands, my dear,"
"Give me a tour of Punjab on a cart, my dear,"
"I have kept many sheds in my fields,"
"You can enjoy sugarcanes there,"
"I have kept many sheds in my fields,"
"You can enjoy sugarcanes there,"
"I'll give you a tour of my fields,"
"I'll also get corn roasted for you,"
"I'll place your cot under the a shady tree, my dear,"
"I'll fulfill all your desires, my dear,"
"Give me a tour of Punjab on a cart, my dear,"
"I'll fulfill all your desires, my dear,"
"Give me a tour of Punjab on a cart, my dear,"
- Taro! - Yes?
Let's go?
No, I cannot go with you,
Why!
I don't want to go, I feel shy,
I said so many things to him yesterday,
You don't think twice before saying anything you just keep blabbering,
How would I know that we'll meet your husband at that place?
I didn't recognise him,
Look, I am begging out here,
Aren't you my friend?
You can wait at a distance if you want,
Please come along,
Okay fine,
- Hurry up then, - Okay,
Let's go, Come on,
Say something at least,
Or you have vowed to keep quiet?
I have removed the chain and put it back twice for you,
'Start talking already,'
'I will, but I fear she might run away,'
'He is so strange, he asked me to come and just sit here,'
'He isn't saying anything,'
'What do I say?'
'Is he crazy?'
'Speak up, you idiot,'
'What if she scolds me?'
Taro,,
Very soon the Muklawa will take place,
Then we will sit on the same cot and eat together,
You feed me and I'll feed the cattle,
I'll buy you another pair of anklets too,
You can always keep them on,
Brother, the one you are talking to is already half way home,
Look over there,
He is talking to himself with his eyes closed,
What happened?
Isn't he like sister had told you?
He is like she said he is,
But sister forget to say that he is stupid,
Lazybones, get working faster,
You are working so slowly,
From the time Nimma got married,,
,,he doesn't leave the house and he doesn't enter it,
True that,
He is after our lives,
He too would have stayed at home if his Muklawa had taken place as well,
Don't mention Muklawa,
If he hears it, he'll do the same thing to you what he did to me,
Really?
Who's talking about Muklawa here?
I didn't say anything, brother, I swear,
- It's okay say it, - No brother,
Muklawa will take place soon now,
No brother, you had beaten me up,
- Say it, - No, brother,
Say it!
- Muklawa, brother, - Say it!
Get back to work,
- Say it again, - Muklawa, brother,
"I am yours, you are mine, Please don't leave me, At this tender age,,"
Mother, take a breather, I'll do it,
Sit over there,
Here, You do it,
Greetings, sister-in-law,
Doesn't he look too happy?
The way he is behaving,,
,,I think he too will do something untoward like his uncle,
Father, like they had beaten up uncle after tying him to a tree,,
I think it's his turn next,
- What do you mean? - Let me explain,
Son, I know that you secretly go to meet your wife,
Who told you? Sister-in-law? Sister-in-law you told her?
No I didn't say anything to mother or father,
Brother, who told you?
Stupid, you will have to speed things up to make it work,
Mother, before we get summoned along with council members,,
,,we should take the Muklawa done soon,
Taro, I was so restless when I couldn't see you after our wedding,
But from the time I've seen you, I feel even more restless,
Don't say that,
I too feel restless,
If so, you should come to meet me every day,
If I come to meet you every day, father will know about it,
He will beat me up and he would cancel the Muklawa too,
How can he just cancel the Muklawa?
Like your father's father rules the land,
Tell my father-in-law to make the preparations,
His son-in-law is coming,
I am prepared,
I'll leave with you whenever you want,
Come on, then let's go right away,
I am not that prepared either,
But to tell you the truth,,
I love you a lot,
Don't love me so much or your love might get me killed,
Careful, don't make the snort drip into the tea,
Yes, it's quite cold these days,
Make a concoction for uncle,
Make him porridge,
- Sister-in-law? - Yes?
We forgot to discuss what we came here for,
- What? - Taro's mother had sent a message,
They want to do the Muklawa in 10 days,
- In 10 days? - If you want, we can delay it,
- We will bring her after some time, - Father food,
Mother, why don't we wait for another two months or so?
What do you say? It won't be so cold then,
It's so hot, it's difficult to wear jackets and sweaters,
Give Shinda something cold, it's quite hot indeed,
Mother, why didn't you take the hand-fans out yet from the trunk?
You know our Muklawa will take place in ten days?
We are the ones who sent that message,
Our village celebrates Lohri (festival),
Our village does that too,
Okay, Fine,
You can come over to our village to celebrate Lohri,
No way!
You cannot go to your in-laws house before Muklawa,
Fine then I'll come over to celebrate at yours,
Oh my God!
You'll come to our house for Lohri?
Forget it, Can I say something?
God hasn't made me very smart,
And I don't know how to sweet-talk either,
But I swear on God, when you smile after looking at me,,
,,I don't know but I feel so strange,
Oh my naive beloved,
I'll be with you after 10 days,
For me it is difficult to spend each moment without you,
I don't know how I will spend the next 10 days,
But you really are very beautiful,
I fear that someone might steal you away from me,
Oh really?
I feel like putting you in my pocket and taking you with me today itself,
You fixed the date of the Muklawa without consulting anyone!
Like I am not your son-in-law but a monkey,
It's not a big deal, brother-in-law,
We will ask you now, Can we fix the Muklawa?
No!
I say no!
My third grader son is to give his half term exams,
We cannot attend it,
But whether or not we attend it,,
,,it doesn't make a difference to you, does it?
We are nobodies, right?
I say I am leaving,
I am leaving, That's final,
We have made all the arrangements,
At least stay here for Lohri,
I have never even cajoled your sister when she gets angry,
And you want me to stay here for Lohri,
I am leaving and that's final,
Father,,
Okay, I am leaving then,
You've fixed the Muklawa, so keep your sister here,
- What do I do now? - Sit down, Nothing will happen, Sit,
- Father! - Calm down,
Now your whole family will discuss how to cajole me,
I am not an expensive festival which paupers cannot celebrate,
At least make an attempt,
I have decided, you don't have it in you,
I am being a gentleman here, and staying for Lohri,
I am a very stubborn man, let me tell you,
True,
You are laughing right now,
You will learn a lesson when I'll get upset and actually leave,
Hey girls, get the things required for the ceremony,
Is everybody in the house doing well?
Everyone's doing well,
I'll cause a havoc!
I'm called Gela for a reason!
Gela came home just today,
He stays near the well these days,
He's here for Lohri,
No, it's okay,
It's a festival,
Family visits you,
And one should celebrate festivals with family,
It's okay, Let bygones be bygones,
"I don't like it when you look at others,"
"You don't need a comb if you go bald,"
"I don't like it when you look at others,"
"You don't need a comb if you go bald,"
"Don't blame me for any injuries,,"
"I'll come and get you,,"
"I am 6 foot tall!"
"I'll come and get you, I am 6 foot tall!"
"He doesn't tell me what's in his heart,"
"He doesn't open the door sometimes,"
"He doesn't tell me what's in his heart,"
"He doesn't open the door sometimes,"
"He sometimes roars and sometimes doesn't even talk,"
"You keep sending cold winds towards us,"
"We will start a fire and warm ourselves,"
"We dance and celebrate,"
"Even the wanderers come down to seek the warm of Lohri,"
Brother, he made a mistake in a drunken stupor,
He is not like this,
You should first talk to your bachelor brother,
Otherwise, we'll tie him to the same tree again and set it on fire,
He's like a dog's tail which never gets straight,
Mind your language,
We know how to mind our language, brother,
You should learn how to mind your bachelor brother,
First he came to our village and did that,,
,,and now he did such a shameful act over here,
We didn't come here to embarrass ourselves,
Your wife might accept this bachelor's advances mine won't!
Father!
Let's go, girl!
Move aside!
- Wait, brother! - Move aside!
Let's go, Move aside! Let's go, everyone,
Oh God!
Sister, why are you so disheartened?
Small tiffs are common in a household,
Here, have some tea,
We will get our daughter-in-law back,
Don't worry,
Why don't you do something, matchmaker?
I cannot see them sad,
What should I do now?
That one didn't think twice before saying anything,,
,,and this one didn't think twice before slapping her,
This is out of my hands now,
Calm down,
Here's your ring,
You are the eldest now, take the initiative and get them married,
Come on, let's go,
Yes, you two should leave as well,
We are facing a trouble, why would you like being here now?
True, everyone wants to be a part of your joy,,
,,no one wants to be a part of your sorrows,
Where are you going, uncle?
You are the eldest son-in-law, You should stay here,
I am the youngest and I will always stay the youngest,
If this family is in trouble, we both will help them together,
- Oh God! - Thank God!
Oh Lord!
You were right, all men are the same,
Mother, I think we shouldn't send Channo back,
He isn't that bad,
He slapped father in front of everyone,
If you hadn't intervened, it would have hit father,
Taro, you sometimes have to unwillingly do things you don't want to,
What do you mean?
He could have stopped you if he loved you,
Taro, please leave, Please me alone,
Oh God, I wonder who had cast an evil eye on our happiness,
It's okay, dear,
Everything will be fine in a few days,
Sister-in-law!
Channo's in-laws have sent the matchmaker and their son-in-law,
Look Taro, I told you, he isn't that bad,
Look, they have come to take me,
Taro, every family faces ups and downs,
You should forget them and move on,
Tell me something, do you really love Shinda?
Then don't you want to settle down with him?
I do,
Then I'll ask father to do your Muklawa today itself,
- Okay? - Really?
Forget it,
It's human to err,
You should forget it,
You know men make mistake when they are drunk,
It's not the people,,
,,but the circumstances which make people do bad things,
He has accepted his mistake,
He will never leave the fields now,
Yes, he is confined in the field,
- He won't come back, - Yes,
Don't worry, He will never go back to that house,
Now tell us when should Nimmo come to take his wife,,
,,and how many of us should come for Shinda's Muklawa,
That's enough, matchmaker!
We've had enough of your excuses,
Forget the youngest, I won't be sending the eldest back either,
No, don't go there,
You should leave before he vents his anger on you,
Goodbye,
Fine, we don't want to keep any relationship with such a family then,
First they made our brother-in-law leave the house,
And then they said indecent things about our family,
They embarrassed us in front of all the relatives and villagers,
Call for a council meeting and ask them to take their things,
It's not like there is a shortage of girls for us,
Mother, how is this sister-in-law's fault?
Her fault?
If she loved our family then why did she leave the house?
He is acting smart, advocating for her,
She left us willingly, now I will not let her step inside again,
Such small things break relationships,
What's left to break?
You too are supporting your in-laws, You aren't bothered about our honour,
I've heard enough from you,
Mother, listen to me,
"I won't let you be away from me,
"I cannot survive without you,"
"I won't let you be away from me,
"I cannot survive without you,"
"Everyone knows that the moth romances fire,"
"I only know that I want to make you mine,,"
"I leave the rest for God to decide,"
"I only know that I want to make you mine,,"
"I leave the rest for God to decide,"
"God will decide,,"
Listen,,
We should forget everything and think about our daughters,
Look,,
Decisions made in the fit of anger aren't always right,
I suggest you should rethink about it,
"God will decide,,"
I don't know what are we being punished for,
We had waited so long to be together,
Taro, I cannot live without you,
Do you think our Muklawa will never take place?
Taro, if you want we can do something to be together,
How?
Come with me,
I cannot just leave with you,
We might never meet again,
This is just a game for you,
Whenever you feel like you say you belong to me,,
,,and whenever you feel like, you leave me,
I will survive without you,
If I cannot then I'll die,
It's not your fault, uncle,
It's fate's fault,
If I hadn't danced wearing a veil then uncle wouldn't have,,
Nimmo's family life also got ruined because of me,
Oh God, please help them settle down!
I will never enter my house again,
Uncle,, Please don't cry,
You are my only uncle, You are also my friend,
Please don't cry,
We are your culprits,
Son, I fear just one thing that like me,,
No one will give their daughters to you,
Oh my son,,
How can they just refuse?
It's not like their father rules the land,
Muklawa happens, if you have the courage to do what it takes,
Sister-in-law!
Shinda, what are you doing here?
Where is Taro?
Taro?
You should leave father will be here any minute,
"For you, if I need to fight the fate,,"
",,I'll fight with them with a smile on my face,"
"If any sorrow moves towards you,,"
",,I'll stand before you,"
"Both the winds and my breath whisper your name,,"
",,you know everything,"
"I only know that I want to make you mine,,"
What are you doing here, son?
Thank God their father is not at home,
Otherwise, this matter would have taken a turn for the worse,
Let it take a turn for the worse,
I won't leave without her,
Please leave before their father comes,
Let him come, I'll meet him and then leave,
Everything will be fine in some time,
If I send her away with you then what will I tell my husband?
You don't know his nature,
If this is the case then I'll talk to father and then take Taro along,
I'll sit down,
I am begging to you,
Please heed my advice,
Mother, I am not here to break your heart,
I am here to mend the relationships,,
,,which got severed because of misunderstandings,
Tell father that he took his wife with him,
There comes your son,
You've already entered the courtyard, but don't you step inside the house,
Go back the way you came,
Don't you have any shame?
You've kidnapped someone daughter!
I haven't kidnapped anyone's daughter,
I brought my wife home,
So what if he brought her here, aunt?
She is his wife,
Four days sooner or later doesn't make any difference,
You should go and perform the bride welcoming ritual,
With what heart should I perform the ritual?
He has dishonoured me,
Go back!
You are my enemy!
People will say that the nephew followed on his uncle's footsteps,
Oh cursed one, why do you want to humiliate me?
Go away from here!
I don't know what bad moment made me decide to be your matchmaker,
I have paired up so many couples so far,,
,,but I have never ever felt so embarrassed as today,
Bhag Singh, take this girl to her house,,
,,before matter takes a turn for the worse,
Wait!
Why are you causing a commotion?
You say as if he kidnapped someone's daughter,
He has brought his father-in-law's daughter,,
,,brother-in-law's sister home,
What can you do about it?
Now you will stoop down to kidnapping our daughters?
The one you eloped with is the honour of our village,
Today we will teach him such a lesson,,
,,that no one would ever dare to do such a shameful thing again,
Don't you feel any shame while dishonouring your father?
I'll chop your neck off if you take a step forward,
A thief acting smart?
Son, you have kidnapped a girl from our village,
How dare you act smart before us?
Did I kidnap your daughter?
Or yours?
I have brought my wife home,
How is she your wife?
Let me explain how she is his wife,
Priest, please tell me did you get them married?
Yes, I did,
That fat confectioner over there,,
,,who made the sweets for their wedding?
I did,
Did you give them a gift on their wedding?
Yes, I did,
Louder, or was it a small gift?
Yes, I did,
There you go,
Didn't you give him her veil in front of everyone?
Do you want to do all that again for your daughter?
We don't want to keep any ties with such a family,
Let's go, girl,
Father, if this is what you want, if you want to break this relationship,,
,,and want to keep your daughters home because of your ego,,
,,then take her with you,
Don't send my wife back either,
You stay happy in your house and we'll stay happy in ours,
Goodbye,
Let's go, come on!
Come closer and I'll chop you off! Shut up!
No, son!
Don't, son,
Drop it,
Let it go,
Please don't leave, brother,
Don't punish these innocent souls for the mistake I committed,
I don't have any children I can swear upon to assure you,,
,,that there were no ill intentions in my heart,
I just hugged your wife, my sister mistaking her to be someone else,
Brother, for that mistake, I can make you a promise,
I am leaving this house,
I will never come back here again,
I won't let you go, uncle,
Father, it is my fault,
It is not my family's fault,
I am the one who made the mistake,
We had visited your house that day,
It was my fault,
And I am the culprit for what's happening today as well,
I really love Taro a lot, father,
If you think I committed a crime by loving her,,
,,then you can punish me for that,
Son!
All's well that ends well,
This is how it was perhaps meant to be,
They have faced a lot of difficult times,
No, please, Thank God,
Please forgive me, sister,
I spoke out of turn in the fit of anger,
Oh no, it's okay, brother,
If you're fighting, it's a taunt,,
,,if you're singing it's just playful vexation,
The eldest son-in-law, come forward uncle,
In front of everyone present here, I want you to listen to me very carefully,
You have matched 101 pairs today,
You being an uncle have 100 rings,,
,,whereas your nephew doesn't even have one,
Now I will find matches for their children,
Done!
"She was soaring high when the eagle spotted her,,"
Sister-in-law, how about giving me something to eat?
I will,
You sit with a mirror and a plucker in your hand every morning,
You shouldn't expect your Muklawa anymore,
Muklawa happens, if you have the courage to do what it takes,
"Patiala's style dresses are so pretty,"
"I got myself one stitched in black,"
"It has small print on it,"
"It looks so good on me,"
"Last night I wrote your name on the parapet,"
"When you were writing my name,,"
"I dreamed about you,"
"Your innocent face is signaling me,"
"I have engraved your name on my heart,"
"This boy has engraved your name on his heart,"
"Girls teased me while passing by,,"
"Bangles, make up and dressing up is something I like these days,"
"There is a glow on my face,"
"Last night I wrote your name on the parapet,"
"I am well prepared,,"
"I am well prepared, you are meant to be with me,"
"My turban matches your veil, we're a match made in heaven,"
"I have engraved your name on my heart,"
"Last night I wrote your name on the parapet,"
"This boy has engraved your name on his heart,"
