Sucha Soorma (2024) Movie Script
1
- Don't commit this sin, brother.
- Let's go!
Don't commit this sin, brother.
The animal who hasn't hurt you...
- Talk to him, brother.
- Handle it.
- Why are you committing this sin?
- Hey!
Get lost.
For God's sake, don't commit this sin.
- Bring its neck forth. Pull the rope.
- Don't commit this sin.
Oh God, talk some sense into them.
For God's sake, don't commit this sin.
Don't commit this sin.
Don't commit this sin, please.
Shut up.
For God's sake, don't commit this sin.
Save this soul, God.
Get up.
Scram.
We didn't do anything, brother.
Who are you, brother?
You came here as our guardian angel.
I'm Sucha from Samaon.
No, you are not Sucha,
you are Sucha Soorma,
(Sucha, the warrior)!
Sucha, people will always remember
you as a great warrior.
Sucha!
Don't you dare touch the gun!
Don't try to escape.
Got it?
Otherwise, I will shoot you.
Put your hands up!
I said put your hands up!
Come on, tie him up.
Yes, sir.
Listen, everyone.
Sucha from Samaon is being hanged
on the big tree outside the village.
Everyone is ordered to be there.
Listen, everyone.
Listen, everyone.
The king has ordered
and the subjects have to oblige.
Sucha from Samaon will be hanged here.
Hey you, listen.
Why are you addressing him as just Sucha,
call him Sucha Soorma.
- Yes, call him Sucha Soorma.
- Yes, call him Sucha Soorma.
- Sucha Soorma.
- Okay, brother.
Sucha Soorma will be hanged here.
Villagers!
They are here with Sucha Soorma.
"Soorma!"
Long live Sucha Soorma!

Move back
Uncle! Uncle!
Are they punishing Sucha
for killing Buchhar?
No, he also killed two others
in the village for the sake of honor.
Isn't that Sucha's brother Narain?
- Yes.
- No one should come forward.
Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Move back! Move back!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Move back!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Sucha Singh.
No, brother.
Don't display any signs of vulnerability.
Jatts and lions are
perpetually courageous.
Stay strong, Surjan.

You...

He is falling on top of me!
Wait, you...
Move back or I will shoot you all!
Bloody protestors!
Come on,
Cover his face.
- Brother...
- Sucha...
Stop!
- Who is he?
- Who is it?
Stop!
Don't hang him!
Who are you?
Inspector,
I have government orders. Don't hang him.
Huh?
Get Sucha off the cart.
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
No Sucha, you don't need to thank me.
Your goodness saved you and not me.
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Look Sucha is here.
Well done! Well done, my boy! Well done!
- Stop.
- Stop.
Come here, my boy, and give me a hug.
Greetings.
Greetings, son.
- Greetings.
- Greetings.
- Greetings, brother.
- Greetings.
Uncle, it looks like I still have
some time left in this village.
Yes, of course!
Shall we get moving?
- Get on with it.
- Come on, guys. Go for it.
- Go for it.
- Join us, Jassi.
Go for it.
Well done.
Move it!
Look at them celebrating.
The drums have certainly set the mood.
A 112-kilo sack!
Leaving 20 pairs behind,
they have reached the finals.
Hameeda and Baggelal
from village Jhogarala.
They are strong young
lads with well-built bodies.
Their biceps are bulging.
They are sons of strong mothers.
Lift it up!
Come on, lift it.
- They dropped it. They couldn't lift it.
- Shame on you.
Villagers, now it's time
for the ones from Samaon.
- We have Sucha from Samaon.
- There you go!
And his best friend - Ghukkar!
- There the young lads come.
- Brave boys!
- Come on!
- Test your strength,
and win the competition.
- Both of them are trying their best.
- Lift it up.
They are strong young lads
with well-built bodies.
Lift it! Lift it!
- Well done, boys!
- Lift it! Come on!
They lifted it!
Well done.
Good job, my brothers.
- Go for it.
- Lift it.
Come on!
Well done!
Well done, brothers!
Well done!
Well done, my friend!
- What's the big deal?
- What's wrong?
We'll defeat you in
the tug-of-war competition.
We'll see.
- You won't be able to win there either.
- Come and see for yourself.
- The one who wins two rounds...
- Pull!
That team will be
considered as the winner!
Go for it!
People of Jhogarala, I am with you,
Use all your might!
Go for it.
Well done!
Pull harder!
Well done!
Pull, Sucha! Pull!
Pull harder!
They are pushing hard!
Look at the cavity in his teeth!
- Pull harder!
- Come on, Sucha! Pull!
Using all their might!
Where are you going?
Pull it!
Use all your might! Well done!
Pull! Pull!
Well done!
They have won!
They are dragging them over!
Their bums are being dragged along.
Well done.
- Well done, people of Samaon.
- Drag them!
The people of Samaon
have won the first round!
Let's see who wins the next one.
- Come on.
- Get him.
Hey you...
Despite all that we have done!
Shame on all of you!
Listen to me very carefully.
Dig your legs in when the people
of Samaon say pull!
- Yes! Let's go!
- Go for it!
I think they will drag them out!
Use all your might and pull, young boys!
Pull! Pull! Pull!
Pull with all your might, brother.
- I'm with you! Pull!
- Pull!
Pull harder!
Use all your might, baldie!
Well done!
Come on.
Pull!
Yes.
Hey!
Come on.
The have them floored!
You have pleased me,
Well done.
This is cheating.
- Call it whatever you want.
- Golu...
Feeling embarrassed, huh?
You!
"When friends stand
guarding each other's back..."
"When friends stand
guarding each other's back..."
"The whole village quivers."
"When friends stand
guarding each other's back,"
"The whole village quivers."
"The whole village quivers and shivers,"
"When friends get together."
"When friends get together,
no one dares to interrupt them,"
"When friends get together, no one dares
to interrupt them, or stop them,"
"No one stop them or fights them,"
"They just walk away
with their heads down."
"No one stop them or fights them,"
"They just walk away
with their heads down."
"It is amazing, brother!"
Well done! Well done! Well done!
"It is amazing!"
"The Jatt is so handsome and strong that,"
"Girls walk past him with an excuse."
"They are so crazy about his turban."
"They yell from Lahore."
"Come here Sucha, or we'll kidnap you."
"Come here Sucha, or we'll kidnap you."
"They want to die,"
"And blame him for it."
"They want to die,"
"And blame him for it."
"They want to die,"
"And blame him for it."
"They want to die,"
"And blame him for it."
"They want to die,"
"No one dares to interrupt.
Then the ground quivers."
"These boys are a limit
and They break skulls open."
"They break them open
and drag them on the ground."
"They break them open and
drag them on the ground in the fair."
"After that, he twists his mustache."
"After that, he twists his mustache."
"This is great!"
"We play in the afternoons."
"This is great!"
"It is world famous..."
"The friendship Sucha and Ghukkar share."
"Everyone is talking about it."
"Gamblers talk about in the bar."
"Even girls want to be their friends."
"Beauties are queuing up."
"Beauties are queuing up."
"They think they will be next."
"Beauties are queuing up,
seeking their turn."
- Billa?
- Yes?
Did you put the goat in the shaded place?
It will move on its own.
- Jugti?
- Yes?
Who is getting married?
Narain.
I see.
I too have been invited.
He got invited twice and
we weren't even invited once.
It's okay,
we will attend the wedding procession.
Yes.
Laddoos! (sweets)
- Jalebis! (sweets)
- Run! We'll enjoy them.
[folk song]
There you go, son.
We have performed
the pre-wedding ritual.
Yes.
- Be careful now.
- Yes.
I will. But they too need to be careful.
Come on, he is after us now.
It's better to leave now. Let's go.
- Sucha?
- Yes?
We will celebrate like we did
in Narain's first wedding.
It's ready! The first brew!
It will be great!
Anyone who drinks it will enjoy it.
What about the meat, Sucha?
I'll call for it right away.
Shameless brats!
Roaring in the morning?
Don't you have any shame?
It's aunty!
I thought it was uncle.
- Come on.
- What if I was your uncle?
- Then I would have called for goats!
- Get lost, you brats!
- That was amazing!
- Why?
What would your uncle do with the goats?
What were you saying, Ghukkar?
We don't need to call the goats,
we need goat meat at the wedding.
We cannot feed our relatives just sweets.
Why would they only have
sweets when Bhaag is here?
I will serve 36 different
types of delicacies.
Sucha just needs to let go of his grudge.
What do you say?
Forgive him, Sucha Singh.
- Yes, brother.
- I got angry because of his stupidity.
I'll forgive him if you want to.
Bhaag feels fortunate today!
You are very fortunate, Bhaag Singh.
Now tell me whose goat
are we going to take?
I'll tell you.
I'll get rid of your fear too.
Careful, don't go overboard
or we will have nothing left.
What do you say?
Mummy! I'm dead! Mummy!
Got rid of the fear yet?
You got scared already?
We are going to get
the goat from Jhogarala.
Jhogarala?
Whose goats are going
to get from there, brother?
The ones we defeated in
the sack-lifting competition.
What!
I heard the girls in
Jhogarala are very beautiful.
They thrash a lot too.
What? Then I say I'll go back home.
- Follow me.
- We're coming.
- Follow me. Follow me.
- We're coming. We're coming.
- Let's go, let's go, let's go.
- Over there.
- Okay.
- Over there.
- Careful.
- Over there.
Come on, come on.
Come on.
This way, this way.
Come on.
You cannot even pick up a goat, Bhaag?
Come on.
Don't make any noise.
Wait, you...
He will get us into trouble.
- Come on, you cannot even control a kid?
- Let's go.
Who is there?
You'll get us into trouble. Go already.
Hurry up, hurry up.
Battu!
Who is there?
I'll be damned.
Minda! Someone stole our goats!
- Hurry up!
- Who is it? Don't let them escape!
I'm coming down!
Uncle, are you inside the house?
- No, I am outside, son.
- Greetings, aunty.
God bless you, son.
You are about to get married.
What are you doing outside?
Sucha Singh is still sleeping.
Those who go hunting
at night sleep during the day.
Go hunting at night, uncle?
What do you mean?
He stole goats last night.
He...?
Yes.
- Sister, I...
- What goats?
Bhaag brought them.
We just tagged along.
Lambardar is just jealous
of Ghukkar and me.
- He is not jealous.
- He is.
Boys! What are you doing here?
Come here, son.
- We will apply turmeric.
- Yes, aunty!
Brother, stop troubling others
and go get yourself cleaned.
- You are quite dirty.
- Come here, son.
This turmeric paste
will barely take it off.
Come here.
Uncle, I try to talk sense into him.
Our mother's sister's
husband is in the army.
He says we should
make Sucha join the army.
There is nothing better than that, son.
It will make Sucha's life.
I am sure his uncle
thinks the best for him.
Okay, brother, I'll join the army.
First, you go and join them.
Come on, go and apply some turmeric paste.
There you go.
Come here, come here.
Where were you?
Uncle, you will have to step
up and perform all the duties now.
You don't have to say that, Narain Singh.
Your father and I have
worked in the fields together.
He used to consider me as his brother.
- I will take the lead.
- Okay.
I just pray that Baba Rode Shah has mercy,
and we find a match for Socha as well.
He is of age as well.
This is what I am worried about too.
It's okay.
We'll find a match for him as well.
You get ready for your wedding procession.
Come on, come on,
- mother is applying kohl to uncle.
- Hurry up,
don't delay the procession.
Ladies, aren't you
done with your rituals yet?
Sisters-in-law,
apply the kohl so that we can leave.
We won't get the Jalebis if we are late.
Stop it.
You come here.
We won't get the Jalebis.
Don't worry,
they have got a lot of things for you.
Yes.
Go for it.
- Well done.
- Let's go!
Well done! Well done! Well done!
Well done! Well done! Well done!
Gather all the utensils, Banto.
- Where are you going, you idiot?
- Sucha.
- Who's chasing you?
- Where's Sucha?
Inside!
Sucha!
His brother's getting married
and he is still sleeping!
Sucha!
Wake up!
The wedding procession has already left!
- What happened?
- Wake up already.
Go to sleep.
Why did you get up so early?
The ones who reach early get respected.
The ones who reach late
always make an entrance.
Go back to sleep.
Of course, we need to make an entrance.
We get a lot of respect anyway.
We do?
Of course!
A lot.
- Come on, let's dance.
- Girls, you can dance later!
First, clean up the house.
Look how everything is scattered.
Fine aunty, don't scold us.
Let's go, it won't take long to clean up.
- Forget about them, Banto.
- Okay.
Ghukkar had gone inside to wake up Sucha.
- Okay.
- None of them came out.
Okay. They won't catch
up with the wedding procession.
Well done!
The wedding procession is here!
The wedding procession is here!
Hurry up! Hurry up!
There's the wedding procession.
Look, the villagers are already here.
Our boys aren't here as yet, uncle.
Don't worry.
They are responsible lads.
They will be here by the time you
take the vows. Brother is here.
They are here!
- They are here?
- Look over there.
- They are here!
- They are here!
- Brother is here!
- They are here on time!
All that's to the mare.
You didn't do us a
favor by coming on time.
I think it's a horse and not a mare.
Come on, uncle!
It's a mare through and through.
And it has a Mirza riding her.
- Well said.
- Let's go.
Well said. Well said.
- Greetings.
- Greetings.
Where's uncle?
- What are you doing back there, uncle?
- It's okay.
- Greetings.
- Lambardar,
you get to the village
square with the procession.
We will do the meet and greet over there.
Okay, Thahail Singh. No problem.
Uncle, I'll go have a tour
of my brother's in-laws' village.
Okay, son. Go ahead.
Come back on time.
Young blood!
I'm going this way, towards the village.
Let's go, hurry up.
The wedding procession
must have already reached.
- I got scared.
- Me too.
The meet and greet will take
place over there and not here.
Puro!
Have you never seen
a man riding a horse before?
Come on already.
You kept staring at the horse.
- Turn.
- You should have looked at the man as well.
Let's go, Sucha.
- Puro! Let's go! Come with us.
- Let's go.
- Look over there! Look over there!
- Start the meet and greet.
Well done, Lambardar!
- Sucha and others are also back.
- Uncle!
- Look at him.
- Let the uncle do the meet and greet.
- Get it here. Give it here, boy.
- Here you go.
- Come on, uncle.
- It's your turn.
Fine, I'll do it.
Well done!
Amazing!
Great!
This is amazing!
Brother is here!
They are here.
- Aunty, look at uncle!
- Look over there.
Puro?
- Come on, boys.
- Come here, Sucha.
Come here, come on.
- Come here, nephew.
- Come on.
Coming.
- Let the brothers meet and greet.
- Yes, let the brothers meet and greet.
- You are here.
- You came on time, brother.
Whose turn is it?
Come here.
- Come on.
- Not me.
It's his turn.
Go for it.
Hey!
Sucha!
This is insulting!
Come on.
Are you okay?
There you go.
Well done.
- Well done.
- Great job.
You did us proud.
Hey... he is fair like rice.
You should sprinkle some
sugar over and consume him.
- What did you say?
- No, nothing.
- We are just talking about that guest.
- I see.
He's...
It looks like the next wedding
procession too will be headed here.
Yes.
We will get to attend another wedding.
- Stop it.
- Dear...
- Get the Jalebis.
- Are you okay?
That boy got a chance
and he picked him up.
I'm fine.
You are right, Lambardar.
Sucha was no less.
He picked him up and threw
him away like he was a sack.
He is used to it, uncle.
- You are right.
- Yes, right.
He has been like this
since his childhood days.
Sucha?
What happened, Sucha?
Why are you napping at this hour?
Get ready.
Get him ready.
Why are you caressing her like that?
The cat will attack you.
An old woman must have made it and
not the girl who was
standing on the terrace.
She was standing on the terrace back then.
Now she resides in my heart.
Now everywhere I look, I see her dancing.
"Come on, my sisters."
"Come on, my friends."
"Burn the oil lamp."
"Girls have gathered to celebrate."
"She has got the water."
"Look Jagoo is here."
"Let's celebrate, Jagoo is here."
"It's time to have fun, Jagoo is here."
"Boys from Samaon look odd."
"They have patches on their faces."
"Good ones are already
married."
"The ones left here are dumb,
deaf, and duffers."
"They look like a bunch
of moochers."
"Look Jagoo is here."
"Let's celebrate, Jagoo is here."
"It's time to have fun, Jagoo is here."
"Wake up, people from Samaon."
"Look Jagoo is here."
"Girls are singing."
"Look Jagoo is here."
Let's go eat, uncle.
Let's go.
Is that all?
Why did you go quiet?
Answer them.
What will they say?
They are useless.
- They can't do anything.
- This is not fair.
This is how your boys are.
Yes!
"Watch out! Watch out! Watch out!"
"Watch out! Watch out! Watch out!"
"Young boys of Samaon,"
"Will come here to get married."
"Young boys of Samaon,"
"No!"
"He stayed out for 12 years,"
"He stayed out for 12 years,"
"He got back oats."
"Boys from Samaon look like goats."
"Boys from Samaon look like goats."
"He stayed out for 12 years,"
"He stayed out,"
"Go for it."
"He stayed out for 12 years,"
"He got back doves."
"In this village,
I plan to plant to sapling of love."
"In this village,
I plan to plant to sapling of love."
"In this village,"
"Pass the roof of the single boy."
" Slice through the
roof of the single boy."
" Slice through the
roof of the single boy."
"Don't pierce my heart, girl."
"It hurts worse when than
someone slicing through the neck."
"Don't pierce my heart, girl."
"It hurts worse when than
someone slicing through the neck."
"You will get a sprain."
"You will get a sprain,
let me lift you and give you a tour."
"These brats are spoilt."
"These brats are spoilt."
"They have no shame."
- "Look Jagoo is here."
- Hey Puro.
- "Let's celebrate, Jagoo is here."
- You can talk to him. But watch your back.
He is too excited.
- "It's time to have fun, Jagoo is here."
- What's wrong with you?
- "Let's celebrate, Jagoo is here."
- Come on!
"It's time to have fun, Jagoo is here."
"Let's celebrate, Jagoo is here."
Huh?
The wedding procession left?
Wake up, Ghukkar!
Wake up!
Damn you!
- Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!
- What happened?
What happened?
Wake up, Bhaag!
The wedding procession has left.
- Come on!
- Let's go! Bhaag, let's go!
Run!
Wait for me!
I'm coming! Wait for me!
Puro, the one who was
eyeing you didn't show up.
Look, there he is.
The wedding is over.
Huh?
The wedding is over.
The feast is over as well.
Oh.
Trust me.
Look, there they are.
- Let's go.
- Well done!
We are very fortunate.
You all are very responsible people.
- The wedding is over?
- Yes.
No, we just came to see their house.
You must have seen it late at night,
during Jagoo, right?
- Look at your faces.
- Look at them!
Go and have a bath.
Don't go to sleep during the meals.
- Okay.
- Go.
- Let's go.
- Go.
Go and freshen up.
- Get the flatbreads!
- Go and serve it.
I'm getting it.
- "I take the name of Lord and form a couplet."
- Hear that!
They won't let us eat in peace.
- "If you eat without replying to it,
- You are right.
"Then your meal will
become a curse, I said."
- Water?
- "We have had our say."
- "It's your turn now."
- Yes.
"You have to now comply."
"It's time to give a reply."
Come on, boys. Girls have had their say.
- It's your turn now.
- Yes.
Make sure we don't go back hungry.
- "The offerings and the utensils, we don't care."
- Hear that!
"If we can convince the girls here,
dark and fair."
"Sweets and delicacies
are nothing in comparison."
"You all are beautiful angels,
it's not fair."
"Listen to me, girl."
"We are free as we have replied to thee."
- "We have replied to thee."
- That's enough.
Come here, my boy.
You had locked the guests
and the boys got them free.
Let the guests enjoy the meal.
- Sit down.
- Enjoy your meal.
- Good thing, matchmaker.
- Come on.
Let's eat.
Look at them!
They are staring at
food like a starving dog.
Watch it!
Be careful.
It doesn't take long for
Singhs to take what they want.
Well said!
"Look, we have moochers!"
"They are hogging like anything."
"Look, we have moochers!"
"They are hoggers."
"Look, we have moochers!"
"They are hogging like anything."
"Look, we have moochers!"
"They are hoggers."
"Look, we have moochers!"
"They are hogging like anything."
"Look, we have moochers!"
"Look, we have moochers!"
- "Look, we have moochers!"
- Sucha! Sucha!
Lambardar!
The matchmaker is looking for you.
- Sucha!
- Coming, aunty.
These girls are making a lot of noise.
I can't hear a thing.
- How can we talk when I cannot hear anything?
- Listen to me.
- Come here and talk to me.
- Oh no!
Stop it! Where do you want to go?
Inside the kitchen?
Let's go and have some Jalebis.
I wanted to ask,
who do we give the blanket
we were supposed to give your father?
To the Lambardar or your uncle?
- Give me a flatbread.
- Where? What?
He is not an uncle, he is trouble.
Give it to the Lambardar.
Stop it! You always have
to twist everything, don't you?
- Aunty?
- Yes?
What are you doing with this idiot?
Will you meet me in the evening?
Yes?
Don't bother.
She is not something you
can get your hands on so easily.
She too drinks water here,
on Earth, right?
You are to eat and not to serve.
Sit down.
- Sit down already.
- Come on.
"You are just eating everything away."
- This is great.
- Careful.
They are here!
Greetings!
Greetings.
Have a seat, brother-in-law.
On the bed.
Brother...
These are old tricks.
Find some new tricks.
They are smart.
These boys from Samaon are very smart.
They are smart.
Come here, brother-in-law, have a seat.
Go and have a seat, brother.
Welcome!
What's stopping you?
Come have a seat.
- Sit down, brother. Sit down.
- Even your friends approve.
Fine, then I'll sit down.
Get up.
Help him up.
Lift him up.
Did you get hurt, brother?
Brother! Come with us.
- Are you okay, brother?
- Sit over here.
They are smart.
- Sit down, brother.
- These boys from Samaon are very smart.
They are smart.
There you go.
We are not smart.
Who planned this?
Why? Do you want to reward her?
I'll do that.
Then reward me.
I see.
I heard you used to eat walls as a kid.
Huh?
People from Samaon are smart.
Stop it, girls.
Enough of these arguments.
Puro go and get a plate of snacks.
Girls, go ahead and perform the ritual.
Puro?
"Why do you ask me?"
"Why do you ask me?"
"What I won't be able to convey,"
"Why do you ask me?"
"What I won't be able to convey,"
"Without you, you fool,
I won't be able to endure another day."
"I won't be able to survive either."
"Why do you ask me?"
"Why do you ask me?"
"Why do you ask me?"
"I'll brave any storm and
weather every trial,"
"I'll brave any storm and
weather every trial,"
"If only you will pen the first line
of our love's tale."
"I'll brave any storm and
weather every trial,"
"If only you will pen the
first line of our love's tale."
Why are you staring at me?
Have you never seen a girl before?
I have seen many.
But none of them were like Puro.
My mother says people who say
such things never keep their promises.
Looks like your mother has
never come across anyone like Sucha.
A maiden's trust is very delicate.
I hope you won't break it.
Men are proud of their
integrity and their promises.
I offer you both.
- Hmm?
- Hmm.
Have you ever seen a soul
leave through someone's eyes?
No.
Now you will see it.
Don't do this,
- or I will run away.
- Run away then.
Why didn't you run away?
I can't.
Now I won't let you run either.
If you are so courageous
then elope with me.
You don't build homes by deception.
For me,
honor comes first.
Everything else is an afterthought.
Do you really desire to elope?
I was just testing you.
You have to stand strong for your love.
You have to fight for it.
And sometimes,
you even have to die for it.
I accept to do all three.
You won't get scared?
I can scare away half of your village
by just stomping my foot on the ground.
What about the other half?
The other half would cheer me.
My village is Hameerghad.
I am a guest here.
Then I will send the
matchmaker to Hameerghad.
I am not just Sucha by name.
I keep my promises too.
That's why I have come to meet you.
"Don't get into the palanquin,"
"Don't get into the palanquin,"
"Don't get into the palanquin, wearing
silver Kaleeras (dangling ornament)."
"Don't get into the palanquin,
wearing silver Kaleeras."
"Don't start celebrations,"
"Don't start your wedding celebrations,"
"Don't start your wedding celebrations,
my beautiful maiden."
"Don't get into the palanquin,
wearing silver Kaleeras."
"Don't get into the palanquin,
wearing silver Kaleeras."
"Don't get into the palanquin,
wearing silver Kaleeras."
"Heer calls out to Ranjha."
"For you,"
"I will swim with the
help of an unbaked pot."
"My nature is different."
"I am brave, dear."
"I don't intend to die."
"Hold my hand and
take me to your village."
"I don't want to go back home."
"If you won't accept my love,"
"I swear, I will die
causing a lot of commotion."
"Don't fall in love, beautiful."
"You will have to face fire."
"You will have to face fire,
you will have to swim on unbaked pots."
"When the world throws stone,
it is your heart that gets hurt."
"You have to fight
the world with courage."
"You have to fight the world."
"You have to fight the world."
"You have to fight the world."
"You have to fight the world."
I am leaving, I am leaving, I am leaving,
I am leaving my house.
My father has made
me sit in the palanquin.
We have no say then, my dear sister.
Sucha?
Sucha Singh?
The well you are looking
for dried long back.
- Forget the past.
- Nephew!
- Looking good, Singh.
- Singh!
Stop it, Lambardar.
Sucha, I am heading to the fields.
Come on, join your uncle
in plowing the fields today.
Let's see how strong your calves are.
Sucha?
Greetings, uncle.
All good?
All is not good, Sucha Singh.
- What is wrong with him?
- Go on.
His wife, Raj Kaur...
She is having an affair
with someone in the village.
She doesn't listen to us or his parents.
We came to you for help.
If you could talk some sense into them.
Why me?
You are Soorma.
People respect you.
They will listen to you.
Brother!
I found him!
Brother!
I found him! I found him!
His name is Jagat Singh.
Where are you going, Sucha?
There is this little
thing I need to handle.
After that, I will handle his case.
Look at that, uncle.
He just got out of prison.
I hope he doesn't cause any more trouble.
I will go first.
Wait.
I will go first.
No!
Wait!
- Greetings.
- Greetings, young man.
Where does Master Jagat Singh stay?
Yes?
- I am Master Jagat Singh.
- I will go first.
- Wait.
- How can I help you?
Go and serve it.
Sucha Singh,
Puro has already told
me everything you just said.
I never objected to it.
But you are four months too late.
Puro lost hope
when they announced your death sentence.
What do you mean?
I mean
she is a happily married woman now.
Sucha Singh?
You too should settle down now.
You experience true love only once.
Repeating it requires significant effort.
And I have no intention of trying.
Sucha Singh?
I have a request to make.
My daughter's honor lies in your hand.
I can only worship who I consider my god.
Sucha!
What happened?
Surjan!
Why aren't you saying anything, Sucha?
Surjan!
Surjan, is everything alright?
What's wrong?
What?
Sucha!
Say something, please.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Say something at least.
What do I say, brother?
Nothing happened.
What are you hiding, Surjan?
Just tell me.
If he won't tell me then you tell me.
Someone has cast an evil eye
on this family's happiness, brother.
This house was filled
with joy at your wedding.
Come on, girls and boys.
Come here, dear.
Let me show you the bride.
Come here.
- Come here.
- Come dear, sit over here.
- Move aside.
- Sit over here, dear.
- You...
- Get lost.
- Leave.
- I am just looking for my wife.
Go away, uncle.
Look over there.
They are about to lift her veil.
Hey!
There you go!
Look at her!
She is beautiful!
- Ghukkar!
- Yes?
Narain really got lucky
the second time around.
What do you say?
Say the second time around again
and I will make you forget everything.
I was just kidding.
Why are you getting so...
Let it go, Sucha.
So beautiful!
Amazing!
Aunty, she is very beautiful.
Get lost, you idiots!
Let's go tell brother Narain.
- Yes.
- We have seen our sister-in-law.
Brother! Brother!
- She is very beautiful.
- Really?
- Slow down. Calm down.
- I arranged everything.
Who is your matchmaker?
Come on.
Come here.
- Coming!
- I am his uncle!
This match wouldn't have
taken place if not for me.
Yes.
Here, may fortunate shine upon you.
May you live in luxury
and give birth to sons.
I'll go take another look at her.
- Hey!
- Wait!
Calm down! You are so desperate.
My darling daughter-in-law!
- Look at him!
- Why are they going there again and again?
- Come here, boys.
- What's the big deal?
We only saw her once.
Live a long life, dear.
- Congratulations, sister.
- Congratulations to you too, sister.
Congratulations to you too.
- There you go!
- Go for it, Narain!
Get it!
Go for it, brother.
Find it quickly.
She will find it.
Sister-in-law will find it.
She will find it.
She is very smart.
Find it.
Who will win?
My brother will win.
Don't grab her hand!
It is not that easy.
Come on!
Come on, girl.
- Hurry up!
- Where is it?
Go, go, go!
She won!
- Brother...
- Come here!
He switched sides!
- It's okay, it's okay!
- This is not fair.
- You lost!
- I support sister-in-law.
- Calm down! Sit down!
- You lost!
- It's okay, it's okay.
- Your daughter-in-law is quite fast.
I forgot my bottle of kohl,
he won't turn back now. Unclear
- Get some tea.
- I'll get it.
Go take care of it.
I forgot my bottle of kohl,
he won't turn back now.
Wait!
- Enough.
- That's enough, pothead.
This is a limit.
Don't cause my brother a loss,
it will lose its color.
Jay Kaur! Girls!
Perform the first dance
ritual before the guests leave.
- Come on girls, do the ritual.
- Let it be, aunty.
Or the ritual might cause trouble.
- Come on, nephew.
- I'll get him. Don't worry.
- Let it be, uncle.
- Go. I would have rocked the dance floor.
Stay put for once! He keeps falling on me.
Come on.
Stay away.
I didn't get a perfect match.
My fate cheated me.
I didn't get a perfect match.
My fate cheated me.
I didn't get a perfect match.
- Get everything.
- Okay, brother.
My fate cheated me.
I didn't get a perfect match.
My fate cheated me.
I didn't get a perfect match.
My fate cheated me.
Damn it!
What's wrong?
Nothing. Go back to sleep.
What was that sound?
Go to sleep!
Father! Father!
I woke up before you!
He woke up before me! Sucha!
- What's wrong with him?
- What's wrong with him?
Where is he running off to?
What's on his tail?
- Brother?
- What?
I have never been on a horse cart.
I have never been on a mare.
I have never been on anything.
Don't you have anything else to do?
Should I teach you a lesson?
Uncle, will he get
a bed there to sleep on?
He won't stay there if there isn't a bed?
- There you go.
- He sleeps at odd hours.
- They don't let them sleep there.
- Sucha!
- Brother Sucha!
- Sucha!
There you go!
They were the only ones missing.
- We are here!
- Don't go, brother!
What will you do in the army?
- Hug him.
- Come here, come here, come here.
Stop it, brother.
What will he do here?
- He would only waste his time.
- Let it go, uncle. Stop it.
Right.
- Let's go.
- You won't mend your ways.
You made us run for no reason.
You are right.
You still have a chance to join me.
I would have if I wasn't married.
Let's go. Or do you want the sun to set?
We have a long way ahead. Let's go.
Wait, uncle.
Where were you?
I couldn't sleep all night.
So I couldn't get up early in the morning.
Don't stay away at night, got it?
Don't go, my friend.
I feel something wrong
would happen if you leave.
Come on already.
- Do whatever you want.
- Let's go.
I'll handle it.
Take care of my brother.
He eats whoever God gives him.
Go, we will manage on our own.
You take care of yourself.
- Take care!
- God bless them!
- He will be a soldier in the army?
- Come on.
- I too want to get enlisted.
- Come with me.
There is a lot of gunfire there.
Brother, it is rightly said
that your heart is like a wild horse.
You never know where it might lead you.
What do you mean?
Brother, I know
why you can't sleep at night.
You hear girls singing at night, right?
Don't worry, I have got you.
What do you say?
Don't make me hit you, you scoundrel.
He gets it.
Whether he accepts it or not.
What do you say?
What are you doing?
What am I doing?
- I felt like hugging you.
- Stupid girl.
These things should be done alone,
at night.
We got married in front of the villagers.
I have desires, too.
Move back!
What will people say if
they see you doing all this?
You are my husband, and I am your wife.
We can do whatever we want in our house.
Stop it!
Keep your desires to yourself.
The world has set a certain decorum
that has been followed for centuries.
I don't believe in them.
Is this what your father taught you?
- Why are you dragging my father...
- Shut up!
How dare you back answer me!
Do that again, and I'll hit you!
Ghukkar?
Ghukkar?
What's wrong?
Why did you freeze?
No, I didn't.
You are behaving like you have
been caught stealing something.
Steal something? No, I didn't.
Steal...
Mother!
You have forgotten where our house is?
You don't visit anymore.
Mother, come on out!
Coming!
Come in!
Daughter-in-law, get tea!
- Dhan Kaur, get Jalebis.
- I'm coming, mother!
- Come on, dear. This is not fair.
- Come, mother.
You have brought a newlywed with you.
- No, dear. We were distributing sweets.
- Ladoos?
And this Balbiro,
she has no mother-in-law.
- I see.
- I thought...
- Sucha and Ghukkar are very close.
- Have some tea.
That is true.
I told her to come with me,
I'll introduce you to your aunt.
- You did the right thing.
- Yes.
Of course.
Where will they come if not here?
Yes.
The celebration was very good.
I got tired dancing.
Don't worry I will massage your knees.
- How are you, Lambardar?
- I'm good.
Shingra Singh, you should have
at least changed out of your nightwear.
- Uncle! Listen! Listen!
- What?
Why don't we have singers
at the fair this time?
I heard he is a very good singer.
Right, right.
We will call them all.
What's the big deal?
Good morning, Narain Singh.
Any news of Sucha?
He must be fine, Lambardar.
- He is fine, uncle. What could happen to him?
- Good.
Ghukkar, my bull
was bought along with yours.
But my bull is very aggressive.
Really?
I'll check him out.
No problem.
I know that.
Okay, sir.
Sir.
Subedar Singh.
- Sir.
- All boys on the ground.
Right, sir.
- Boys!
- Sir!
Get to the ground now.
The Junior English officer
wants to supervise your drill.
- Okay.
- The one who wins
- will get double the food.
- Really?
Yes.
Come with me.
- Try your best.
- Okay, sir.
Here you go, Balbir Kaur.
You can make the greens on time now.
Wait here, Ghukkar.
- I'll go and get Bagga.
- Okay, get him.
- We will fix him today.
- Welcome.
We should give you a great welcome.
Stop it, sister-in-law.
Come on, boys.
Good, Sucha Singh.
Why do you worry, brother?
Controlling a stubborn
thing is always a delight.
Really?
Fine, I accept it.
You will control it eventually.
But first, have some buttermilk.
- Yours?
- I'll have it later. Keep it here.
You have it.
Attention!
Come on, boys, pull!
Good.
Well done, Sucha Singh.
Damn it!
- Move aside! Move aside, Balbiro!
- Sister-in-law! Move aside!
Move aside! Move back!
He has gone wild.
What are you doing, Ghukkar!
Move aside, sister-in-law.
Yes.
Well done, Sucha Singh.
Ghukkar! Ghukkar!
Are you alright?
- Are you alright?
- I am fine, brother.
- I thought we'd lose Balbiro today.
- It's okay.
Nothing will happen
to her as long as I am here.
Fire!
Sucha, your performance is very well.
Well done, Sucha! You have pleased me.
- Well done!
- Good job.
Get the lunch, Balbir Kaur.
I'll eat first and then fix the plow.
Where are you?
What are you doing?
You are a limit.
This is not a funfair.
What will people say?
You are always concerned
about what people will say.
Yes, I am concerned.
Get lost from here.
You start dancing wherever you feel like.
She is always so desperate to dance!
My fate cheated me.
I didn't get a perfect match.
My fate cheated me. I...
Can you only sing
or can you dance as well?
I cannot dance with my arms
out like you do, sister-in-law.
Only you can dance like that.
Really?
You keep thinking about me,
but you never meet me.
I'll drop by.
You should show me your wounds too,
sometimes.
Your presence will give
me a few moments of joy.
Otherwise, I am just surviving.
What are you thinking, brother?
It is a good deed.
Give her what she wants.
Narain is like brass.
You are gold and she is silver.
It is always gold and
silver that look good together.
What do you say?
Hmm?
He gets it.
Whether he accepts it or not.
What do you say?
If you have already removed
your veil then keep it off.
Are you sure?
Will you be able to handle it?
I followed my heart and united with you.
What if your friendship becomes a barrier?
I controlled myself for so
long because of that friendship.
There is one thing everyone
knows about Ghukkar.
First, I do take a path.
If I do, I don't turn back.
So what have you decided?
Do you want to do it or turn back?
It will be difficult.
It has never been easy.
Your songs don't let me sleep at night.
What about the day?
I won't let you sleep during the day.
Go now.
Really?
I don't want you to leave,
but your brother will come home for lunch.
I don't feel like leaving, Biro.
I don't feel like it,
either, but you will have to leave.
I'll send a message through
Bhaag and you can come back.
- Go.
- Fine,
- I'll come back.
- Give me my veil back.
So my suspicion was true.
Didn't you feel ashamed
to betray your friend?
Didn't you feel ashamed to do all this?
I will kill you!
Go inside!
Go inside right now!
There is a limit to shamelessness,
you shameless woman!
You have crossed all limits.
Who are you to stop me?
She is my wife.
She must be your wife.
But she belongs to me.
What do you mean?
Never raise your hand on Biro again,
or I will break it
and put it on your hand.
Remember that.
- This war is going on forever.
- Yes.
Uncle, I heard they aren't
letting soldiers go on leave.
How will they get leaves?
Englishmen are enlisting more
Punjabis and sending them to war.
- Really?
- That's because our people are good fighters.
Yes, you are right, uncle.
- Roopa!
- Yes, Billa?
Narain's Biro is opening flaunting it.
You are right.
This is the first time such
a thing has happened in our village.
You are right, uncle.
She crossed all limits.
- Right.
- His wife is something.
Narain can't do anything.
He should just slap her.
Yes, she deserves a thrashing.
Yes, had she been mine,
I would have skinned her alive.
Father, milk.
When you lose your honor at your in-laws'
house, the news spreads far and wide.
You should have thought about it, dear.
You too should have
thought about it, father,
before marrying me
to this useless old man.
There is something known
as age compatibility as well.
He is so old-fashioned.
He had me tied up like
people tie up their animals.
I just broke my end of the rope.
Now he can hold his end
of the rope all he wants.
You cannot run a family like that, dear.
Tell him to mind his own business.
I will keep feeding him.
He should not expect
anything more from me.
Narain Singh,
I cannot even look into your eyes.
You can keep her, beat her, or kill her.
Do as you please.
You have my support.
'She must be your wife.'
'But she belongs to me.'
'I just broke my end of the rope.'
'Now he can hold his
end of the rope all he wants.'
What did the letter say?
Why is he so angry?
Sir!
Sergeant!
Yes?
- What is it, Sucha?
- I want a few days off.
You are asking for the impossible.
They are preparing to
send us to France for the war
and you want to go on a leave.
Then you should strike me off that list.
My brother Narain will
die if I don't leave now.
Fine, I'll talk to the junior officer.
I'll let you know by tonight.
- Are you going to have dinner, boys?
- Yes, sir.
Where is Sucha?
In the barrack, sir.
Fine, you can carry on. Go on.
Sucha Singh, the senior officer
didn't sanction your leave.
Okay then, I am running away.
Hey!
You heard me.
Where will you go, Sucha?
They hunt and find deserters.
What will they do? Shoot me?
Let them. I don't have any desire to live.
Sucha!
Sir, the senior officer's
bungalow is on fire!
Quickly go and extinguish the fire!
I'll go and inform the officer.
He is in a meeting.
Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!
Hurry up!
Sir! Sir! Sir!
Sir!
Your home... fire!
Your little girl and
your wife are still inside.
Inside, sir.
Come. Hurry up, sir. hurry. Come, come.
You too, sir. Come.
Hey! Boys! Come with us! Hurry up!
Let's go and extinguish the fire.
Let's go and get sir's wife out.
Hurry up.
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
Come fast, Sucha Singh. Hurry up.
Come on, come on. Run!
- Run!
- Sucha!
Come fast.
Come on, come on.
Well done, Sucha Singh.
Well done, Sucha.
Well done. Good job. Good job.
- Are you okay, Sucha?
- Well done.
Quickly get the water!
Getting it, sir.
- Get the water!
- Go get the water!
My brother was great!
Well done.
Well done, Sucha. Well done.
- You are so brave, Sucha. Well done.
- You were great.
Sir.
Sir, okay?
Sir, Sucha Singh.
Very brave.
Thank God his kids are fine.
Sir, Sucha.
Thank you, Sucha Singh.
Thank you for saving my family.
- Makar?
- Yes?
This axe has gone blunt. Fix it.
Fine, brother. Keep it here.
Brother, I wanted to say something.
You are great.
You are handling two families.
He couldn't even handle one.
- Yes, brother.
- Yes.
Don't joke.
That's all we can do, brother.
No, brother.
We had come to get a noose.
- No, we had come to get a shovel.
- Yes, yes.
I need to go somewhere
or I would have thrashed you.
How are you doing, Ghukkar?
- I am good. How about you?
- I too am good.
Makar, he is going for that.
How does it concern us?
Ouch, the water's hot.
Where are you going now, all dressed up?
Have some shame.
Where's my lunch?
It's in the kitchen, have it.
Do you think you'll ask and
I'll tell you where I am going?
Mind your own business.
What did my brother ask?
- Where are you going?
- Sucha!
My brother is back!
Yes, I am back. Wait, brother.
- What did my brother ask?
- I was going to the mill.
- Which mill?
- Water. Well.
What water? Which well?
Ask him.
- The well.
- Tell me!
- Ask him!
- Who do I ask?
Who?
Balbir Kaur!
Balbir Kaur!
Run away if you want to stay alive,
you scoundrel!
Or you will die!
Come on, when did ants get wings?
Don't you think you
have started talking a lot?
Looks like I will have to talk
to Ghukkar and have you thrashed.
Only then will you learn a lesson.
What did you say?
Huh?
Sucha... you?
When did you come back?
Brother, I... I was just joking.
Ghukkar!
Where are you?
Ghukkar!
- Where are you?
- Why are you out of breath?
Where is Balbiro?
She won't be coming.
He is back.
Who is back?
Sucha is back, brother.
Our lives are in danger.
He will kill us.
What do you say?
What do you think Biro will do?
Now that Sucha is back.
She will do something.
She is very clever.
She is very cunning.
A woman like her would
kill a man without blinking.
- Yes.
- Yes, Banto.
- You are absolutely right.
- Yes.
There you go.
You are done for.
Sucha isn't here on leave.
I heard he left the army.
- Really?
- Yes.
Who is stronger, out of the two of them?
- Come on.
- Forget about who is stronger.
Their nature suggests that only
one of them will live to tell the tale.
- I think Ghukkar is very strong.
- Sucha is also very strong.
- Yes.
- Ghukkar is a cheetah.
- He can eat a whole goat.
- Sucha is a soldier.
He has a lot of meat.
How are you doing, Sucha Singh?
- Come on.
- Hey!
- Come on.
- We're coming.
- Come on, come on.
- We're coming.
Come on, come on.
He is going towards Ghukkar's house.
They are going to fight.
- They are going to fight today.
- Really?
- Then what are we doing here?
- Let's go and watch.
- Let's go, let's go, let's go.
- Let's go, brother.
- Stop.
- Yes, what is it?
What happened was...
Oh no!
Oh no!
Mother! Mother!
- Sucha... is here!
- Don't step outside, son.
Mother, strong winds can blow
off sheds but not concentrate roofs.
Oh no, mother...
Oh no, what is this?
What is going on?
- Stop!
- Mother...
- Don't step outside, mother.
- Stop!
God bless you, son.
You two should come inside, son.
We are fine out here, aunty.
Go inside, mother.
Come inside, Ghukkar.
Go inside, mother!
Why are you here?
I am here to take the turban back
Which turban?
The one I gave you when
I accepted you as my brother.
I don't want to give any justifications.
I am not going to ask for any.
And I won't believe in any either.
Believe it or not,
I told you don't go,
something might go wrong.
That's why I tried to stop you.
You cannot use that excuse to survive.
Women make excuses.
Ghukkar comes straight to the point.
The point is that I asked
you to look after my brother Narain.
You were supposed to
protect my family, Ghukkar.
And the protector himself
destroyed the family.
You didn't think about our friendship
even once before doing this, Ghukkar?
I really tried to stop myself.
She wouldn't let me sleep
when I used to close my eyes.
When I used to go to the fields,
she used to stay in front of me.
Her beauty got over my head.
Biro's beauty was making me go crazy.
Enough!
Enough!
- We're coming, we're coming.
- Come on.
How can 20 days of attraction
ruin 20 years of friendship?
Your intentions weren't good, Ghukkar.
Your intentions weren't good.
Believe what you want.
But I cannot back out now.
I know how to make you back out.
I won't just make you back
out but also teach you a lesson.
Don't call me Sucha if I don't.
Leave!
This isn't a circus.
Look at them enjoying the show!
- Let's go.
- Run!
My name is Ghukkar Mall.
Let's see who teaches whom a lesson.
That's why I left the army.
The next time we meet,
only one of us will walk out alive.
- Who knows what lies tomorrow?
- Let's do it right now.
Come on then.
- No, son!
- Go inside, mother.
No, son.
Sucha...
Go back, son.
Another time, Ghukkar.
Don't enter my place even by mistake.
If you do, you won't leave it alive.
- Let's go watch the fair!
- Sandals for sale!
Let's go, I am coming too!
We have cleaned up well.
- We don't look like workers anymore.
- Keep it down.
No one should find out.
Well done.
Well done.
Black crows have turned white today.
- Uncle Nazar...
- Yes?
It's well known that people come
here on a no-moon day to take a dip.
People come here from
far and wide to take a dip.
What's the big deal?
Billu!
Billa! You bathe once a month.
Look, he too is making fun of us.
Let's go, Singhara.
Coming!
- Come on.
- Coming!
Who are these outsiders?
We have never seen them before.
- They are hooligans from Jawarka.
Chirag and his gang. - I see.
Are they too here to take a dip, uncle?
That is just an excuse.
- Ghukkar has called them over.
- Move aside.
Then there is going to be
a fight at the fair for sure today.
- Let's go, brother.
- It will happen right here.
- Let's go.
- Listen!
Don't get crushed in the crowd.
Don't worry, uncle.
We are fine. We are absolutely fine.
A woman passing by stopped,
kept her hands on her waist, and said,
- "Let me take a bunch of grams."
- Jatt roared and said,
"Don't you dare curse my grams!"
"Your shadow will cause
the moonlight to kill my grams."
Tell them what happened next.
"Why would I renounce
the world and wear earrings,"
"If this world truly valued love?"
"If this world valued love?"
"You wouldn't have refused the proposal."
"And your lover wouldn't
have been beheaded."
"Why would I renounce
the world and wear earrings,"
"If this world truly valued love?"
"You wouldn't have refused the proposal."
"And your lover wouldn't
have been beheaded."
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
- Hey!
- What?
Ghukkar is here.
- Sucha didn't come back?
- He got scared.
Sucha got scared? Don't make me hit you.
Sucha, you shouldn't go to the fair alone.
Brother,
if the lion doesn't react,
the jackals get delusional.
"It is never your enemy,"
"It is always a friend who backstabs you."
"It is never your enemy,"
"It is always a friend who backstabs you."
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
There's my friend!
Try your luck!
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
Who hit him?
I did.
He was acting smart.
Stop it!
No, boys.
Come on.
Hey!
- I'll kill you right here!
- Stop it!
Stop.
Stop it, brother.
Narain, take him away.
Get him out of here.
I won't spare you!
Hey!
Go away, people have come here
to enjoy the fair and not your fight.
Take them away.
- Let's go.
- Let me go!
It's okay, it's okay.
These things are quite common at a fair.
Where is the singer?
- Come on out.
- I am here.
I am over here.
You are hiding over here?
Take your instrument
and sing your song.
I won't be able to sing anymore.
I'll get something to drink.
Get him a drink so he can sing.
- Get on with it.
- Yes, then perhaps I'll be able sing something.
Ghukkar, if we were going
to end up drinking at home,
then why did we have to go out there?
People will say that Ghukkar got scared.
You are right, Bhaag Singh.
That's what people will think, Ghukkar.
First, they stop you
and then they blame you.
Who got us to stop, huh?
I would have torn him apart right there.
What's wrong now?
We can do it right now.
If we don't do the right
thing even after the first brew,
then we will be insulting the alcohol.
What do you say?
Let's go back to the fair!
Pass through the village roaring.
Everyone should know who
Ghukkar is and who his friends are.
Ghukkar is acting smart
by calling outsiders.
Looks like they won't back out.
You should have added
some water to it, brother.
Come on out!
Come on out!
"Soorma!"
It's not you,
it's your death roaring, Ghukkar.
"Come on, come on, come on."
"My friends, women are a mystery."
"They cannot be trusted."
"They are beauty personified."
"They can do the impossible."
"If one falls for their trap,"
"If one falls for their trap,"
"They can even make
a Cheetah have a crow."
"They take you to the peak,"
"And then move the floor off your feet."
"They take you to the peak,"
"And then move the floor off your feet."
"Come on, come on, come on."
"See how people fall for them,"
"When they dress up."
"They have even becharmed
Gods like Indra."
"They don't let you think."
"Sometimes they cry like Laila."
"Sometimes they cry like Laila."
"Sometimes they roar like Kaali."
"He dies a miserable death,"
"Who takes this path."
"Come on, come on, come on."
"They dance like there
is no tomorrow."
"They make you lose your throne."
"They even give illiterate,
lessons in love."
"They are magicians, my friend."
"They are magicians,"
"They are magicians, my friend."
"They get men killed."
- "They are--"
- Stop it!
Listen up, everyone.
Balbiro belongs to Ghukkar.
- I'll use all my might to keep her!
- How dare you!
Hey! Come on!
You...
Someone stop them!
Someone stop them!
No! Don't!
Hey!
Run! Run! Run!
No! Don't!
Someone will die!
No! Don't!
Why are you trying to kill each other?
Stop it!
Let him go, Sucha!
- Brother!
- You'll kill each other!
Bhaag! Stop him!
Get him out of here!
Narain! Get him or they will die fighting!
Take them away!
Stop fighting!
For God's sake, stop it!
Take him away!
Don't ruin our village's image.
Take him away!
Take him away!
- For God's sake, stop it!
- Let's go, brother.
For God's sake, stop it!
Don't ruin our village's image.
As someone wisely noted,
it's preferable to remain single
than to be married to a bad wife.
She is the reason half
of the villagers are injured.
- And she is here, making flatbread.
- Yes.
She could have cooked at home.
She has the whole village on fire.
Why does she need to
start a cooking fire at home?
She should go and see the condition
of Sucha and Ghukkar and their families.
Take it easy, Surjan.
Heat some ghee quickly, brother.
We'll apply that and bandage the wound.
- It will heal in a couple of days.
- Take this, I'll be right back.
Couldn't you cook at home?
Why did you step out of the house?
What do you plan to do now?
- What have I done now?
- What have you done?
You haven't done anything, right?
Brother!
Go heat some ghee.
Bad deeds always have
bad results, Ghukkar.
- You should mend your ways.
- Yes.
You still have time.
- Keep quiet, mother.
- How can I keep quiet?
Your father died and left
me to deal with all this nonsense.
What are you doing?
Mother!
What have I done?
Why are you scolding her?
The deeds you have committed...
Your father would have killed you for it.
Hold this.
- Stop it, mother.
- Hey!
You've got your whole family into trouble.
You can take it in writing if you want,
for one thing is certain,
this fight won't end.
- It is inevitable.
- Right.
Half of the villagers
are injured, brother.
Even if the whole village is injured,
no one can stop the bloodshed now.
The messenger of death is ready.
He is certain to take
a couple of people with him.
- You are right.
- Pratap and Banto, listen.
They say a bad woman
can shake the throne of any.
It is true.
- Look at what Biro did.
- Right.
People used to give examples
of Sucha and Khukkar's friendship.
And now they give
examples of their enmity.
This woman is a man-eater.
That witch won't be sated
till she consumes 3-4 men.
- Right.
- True.
Mallo!
This is a serious matter.
- Uncle? They had a big fight yesterday.
- Yes?
I have never seen such a fight.
We found a singer hiding
behind uncle Nazar.
- We're coming!
- Look over there, guys.
Look over there.
- Chirag and his gang are still here.
- Look over there.
Ghukkar won't stop.
Ghukkar might stop, but sleazy
Bhaag won't stop instigating him.
He will cause trouble.
Forget about them.
Lambardar was called
for a meeting in Barnala.
I hope the police don't show up.
Don't worry, we will know by tonight.
Where does Sucha Singh Jawanda stay?
Go straight and take a right.
The first home on the right side.
Okay.
There you go, uncle.
Sucha too has sought help from outside.
I am Narang Singh.
Does Sucha Singh stay there?
Welcome, Narang Singh!
This belongs to you, Sucha Singh.
- Sir remembered.
- Come, have a seat.
This is the best thing about the British.
They don't forget good or bad.
They did the paperwork and
gave me the gun to deliver to you.
Right on time.
Who is out there?
Who is it?
What are you doing out here?
I... I had come to ask about dinner.
We'll have some. Go and make it.
I'll go make it.
Sucha Singh, what I heard...
It's true.
- That is true.
- Narang Singh, you too are on leave?
A cart will take you to Sunam.
You will get a train
to Ferozpur from Sunam.
Sucha Singh, are you home?
Sucha Singh, call me in the
middle of the night and I'll be there.
Don't forget your friend from the army.
- Greetings.
- Okay, Narang Singh.
Sucha...
Sucha, I needed to discuss
something important with you.
Sucha, I will go drop Narang to the cart.
Come with me, brother.
Sucha Singh, you go talk to them.
I'll get going.
Yes, uncle?
We had a meeting in Barnala.
The police know about the fight.
We have handled the situation for now.
If it happens again then
the police will get involved.
Lambardar,
only one of us will stay in this village.
Ghukkar,
look, son,
we pleaded with them and saved you two.
You two will get into
trouble if it happens again.
And our village will get a bad name too.
Biro! Biro!
Here you are getting water!
Your lover is missing you.
He asked, when will you meet him?
Find a way to meet him.
What do you say?
If someone sees us together,
then you will get thrashed
and I'll be punished too.
I'll let you know if
I get a chance to meet you.
Bhaagya!
I'll be damned.
Where did he come from?
Stop, you...!
Stop!
Stop, you...!
Wait, you scoundrel,
I'll teach you a lesson.
You won't mend your ways, will you?
Come home with me and
I'll teach you a lesson.
Come with me.
Wait and watch, brother.
This is going to cause big trouble.
You are talking about trouble?
She will cause murders.
Come with me!
You still won't stop will you,
you characterless woman!
Why don't you just die?
How is this my fault?
It is your fault.
It's my fault?
Yes, it is your fault.
Because a husband and wife's
relationship is like a weak wall
which needs to be plastered every day.
The wall falls if it
isn't plastered, mister.
Really?
What are you trying to say?
The sun will rise in the west
the day wives are given their voice.
Then the sun will rise in the west.
Have your say.
What do I say?
You can kill me if you want,
you are a Jawanda.
Ask your brother,
I wasn't always like this.
He forced me to do it.
A relationship shouldn't
be purely physical;
it needs an emotional connection too.
His heart seems made of stone.
He would push me away whenever
I tried to embrace him.
He would curse if I danced
in the fields, saying,
"What will people say, you fool?"
So, what do people say now?
People would have said something
better than what they are saying now.
He ruined my youth.
Do you have any answers?
Ask your father,
who got you married to him.
Even if everything you say is true,
what gives you the
right to behave this way?
You could have embraced him inside.
You could have danced in the courtyard.
Who did you want to please
by dancing in the fields?
You cannot have lovers
in your husband's village.
You cannot be forgiven for your misdeeds.
You will be punished for this.
Brother...
Go inside.
Come on.
- Go inside.
- Let me go.
- You have made my life miserable.
- Let me go.
- Go inside.
- Restricting women often leads to death.
- Remember that!
- Stop.
Someone will die and that someone is you.
But not yet.
First, I will kill
Ghukkar in front of you.
Then I will kill you.
Come on out, you so-called warrior!
You had asked me not to enter your area,
but look I am standing outside your house!
You have come alone.
You have come alone.
Where are your friends?
Lions hunt alone, Ghukkar.
You just watch how the crowd
you have gathered disappears.
He shot me!
Where are your friends now, Ghukkar?
Call them.
Do you have anyone standing
here in your support?
The one who used to stand in your
support is standing on your chest now.
Ghukkar, tell me before you die,
didn't you think about our friendship
even once, before doing this?
All this wouldn't have happened,
if I had thought about it.
You too don't think about our friendship.
Just shoot and kill me.
"Soorma!"
You desperately wanted to meet your lover,
didn't you?
Go ahead and embrace him.
Show your dance to all the villagers.
Forgive me.
I beg you.
No, sister-in-law Balbiro.
Some things can't be forgiven.
Listen, villagers!
Listen to me very carefully!
Anyone who does anything
like these two did,
then I will make sure they
will meet the same fate these two did.
Nephew?
Sucha Singh?
Are you alright?
What did you want to discuss, uncle?
Look, Sucha Singh,
Raj Kaur had initially mended
her ways after you talked to her,
but she has once again
gone back to her old ways.
These days, she openly goes
to Gajjan's place without any shame.
When this man tried to stop them,
Gajjan sent him away.
Gajjan tells everyone in the
village that Raj Kaur belongs to him.
He'll use all his might to keep her!
'Balbiro belongs to Ghukkar.'
'I'll use all my might to keep her!'
Gajjan didn't say that.
It was forthcoming
death that made him say it.
"Soorma!"
Who is it?
Who is it?
Who are you?
- How many people live in Gajjan's place?
- Three.
One on the roof,
one on the ground floor,
and me.
Huh?
Sucha...
Soorma?
Where's Gajjan?
He's inside.
- He's asleep.
- When will he wake up?
I don't he won't be waking up anymore.
Tie him up.
I... I...
Keep your hair open.
I had given you a chance,
but you didn't take it.
Your child is crying for food
and you are sating your heart here?
Don't you have any shame?
Hey! Who dared to speak in that tone--
Brother?
You didn't take me seriously, did you?
I had. I did.
Run away!
Stop!
Come here.
Yes?
- Go.
- Come with me.
- Run away!
- Goodbye, brother. Bye.
Greetings!
Brother?
Why did you let them leave?
Where will they go?
Let the villagers know the punishment
for acting like Biro and Raj Kaur.
Let's go.
- This way.
- Come on.
- Come on, run.
- Yes, yes.
I'm coming!
- Come on!
- I'm coming!
Enough.
Oh no.
No, no...
No, no...
A bad man can ruin an entire generation.
A bad woman can ruin
many generations to come.
After these murders
Sucha Singh went underground.
Then one day,
he was arrested because one of on his men
give out his location.
Soorma was charged with Gajjan
and Raj Kaur's murders
and he was eventually sentenced to death.
In 1916,
in village Gehri Bhaagi,
under the same tree,
where Soorma killed Gajjan and Raj Kaur
he was hanged till death.
- Move back!
- Step back!
He alone is brave,
The one who fights
for the underprivileged.
He may get cut into pieces,
But he'll never leave the battlefield.
"Soorma!"
- Don't commit this sin, brother.
- Let's go!
Don't commit this sin, brother.
The animal who hasn't hurt you...
- Talk to him, brother.
- Handle it.
- Why are you committing this sin?
- Hey!
Get lost.
For God's sake, don't commit this sin.
- Bring its neck forth. Pull the rope.
- Don't commit this sin.
Oh God, talk some sense into them.
For God's sake, don't commit this sin.
Don't commit this sin.
Don't commit this sin, please.
Shut up.
For God's sake, don't commit this sin.
Save this soul, God.
Get up.
Scram.
We didn't do anything, brother.
Who are you, brother?
You came here as our guardian angel.
I'm Sucha from Samaon.
No, you are not Sucha,
you are Sucha Soorma,
(Sucha, the warrior)!
Sucha, people will always remember
you as a great warrior.
Sucha!
Don't you dare touch the gun!
Don't try to escape.
Got it?
Otherwise, I will shoot you.
Put your hands up!
I said put your hands up!
Come on, tie him up.
Yes, sir.
Listen, everyone.
Sucha from Samaon is being hanged
on the big tree outside the village.
Everyone is ordered to be there.
Listen, everyone.
Listen, everyone.
The king has ordered
and the subjects have to oblige.
Sucha from Samaon will be hanged here.
Hey you, listen.
Why are you addressing him as just Sucha,
call him Sucha Soorma.
- Yes, call him Sucha Soorma.
- Yes, call him Sucha Soorma.
- Sucha Soorma.
- Okay, brother.
Sucha Soorma will be hanged here.
Villagers!
They are here with Sucha Soorma.
"Soorma!"
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Move them back.
- Move them back!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Move aside.
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
Move back
Uncle! Uncle!
Are they punishing Sucha
for killing Buchhar?
No, he also killed two others
in the village for the sake of honor.
Isn't that Sucha's brother Narain?
- Yes.
- No one should come forward.
Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Move back! Move back!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Move back!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Sucha Singh.
No, brother.
Don't display any signs of vulnerability.
Jatts and lions are
perpetually courageous.
Stay strong, Surjan.
- Move aside!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Push them back!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Move aside!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Move aside!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Move them back!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Move back!
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
- Come with me.
- Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Move back!
Stop them! Stop them!
Brother!
Move them back!
Move them back!
Move aside! You...
Move back!
Move back!
- Move back or I'll shoot you!
- Long live!
Move back!
You...
- Long live!
- Move back!
He is falling on top of me!
Wait, you...
Move back or I will shoot you all!
Bloody protestors!
Come on,
Cover his face.
- Brother...
- Sucha...
Stop!
- Who is he?
- Who is it?
Stop!
Don't hang him!
Who are you?
Inspector,
I have government orders. Don't hang him.
Huh?
Get Sucha off the cart.
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
No Sucha, you don't need to thank me.
Your goodness saved you and not me.
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Long live Sucha Soorma!
Look Sucha is here.
Well done! Well done, my boy! Well done!
- Stop.
- Stop.
Come here, my boy, and give me a hug.
Greetings.
Greetings, son.
- Greetings.
- Greetings.
- Greetings, brother.
- Greetings.
Uncle, it looks like I still have
some time left in this village.
Yes, of course!
Shall we get moving?
- Get on with it.
- Come on, guys. Go for it.
- Go for it.
- Join us, Jassi.
Go for it.
Well done.
Move it!
Look at them celebrating.
The drums have certainly set the mood.
A 112-kilo sack!
Leaving 20 pairs behind,
they have reached the finals.
Hameeda and Baggelal
from village Jhogarala.
They are strong young
lads with well-built bodies.
Their biceps are bulging.
They are sons of strong mothers.
Lift it up!
Come on, lift it.
- They dropped it. They couldn't lift it.
- Shame on you.
Villagers, now it's time
for the ones from Samaon.
- We have Sucha from Samaon.
- There you go!
And his best friend - Ghukkar!
- There the young lads come.
- Brave boys!
- Come on!
- Test your strength,
and win the competition.
- Both of them are trying their best.
- Lift it up.
They are strong young lads
with well-built bodies.
Lift it! Lift it!
- Well done, boys!
- Lift it! Come on!
They lifted it!
Well done.
Good job, my brothers.
- Go for it.
- Lift it.
Come on!
Well done!
Well done, brothers!
Well done!
Well done, my friend!
- What's the big deal?
- What's wrong?
We'll defeat you in
the tug-of-war competition.
We'll see.
- You won't be able to win there either.
- Come and see for yourself.
- The one who wins two rounds...
- Pull!
That team will be
considered as the winner!
Go for it!
People of Jhogarala, I am with you,
Use all your might!
Go for it.
Well done!
Pull harder!
Well done!
Pull, Sucha! Pull!
Pull harder!
They are pushing hard!
Look at the cavity in his teeth!
- Pull harder!
- Come on, Sucha! Pull!
Using all their might!
Where are you going?
Pull it!
Use all your might! Well done!
Pull! Pull!
Well done!
They have won!
They are dragging them over!
Their bums are being dragged along.
Well done.
- Well done, people of Samaon.
- Drag them!
The people of Samaon
have won the first round!
Let's see who wins the next one.
- Come on.
- Get him.
Hey you...
Despite all that we have done!
Shame on all of you!
Listen to me very carefully.
Dig your legs in when the people
of Samaon say pull!
- Yes! Let's go!
- Go for it!
I think they will drag them out!
Use all your might and pull, young boys!
Pull! Pull! Pull!
Pull with all your might, brother.
- I'm with you! Pull!
- Pull!
Pull harder!
Use all your might, baldie!
Well done!
Come on.
Pull!
Yes.
Hey!
Come on.
The have them floored!
You have pleased me,
Well done.
This is cheating.
- Call it whatever you want.
- Golu...
Feeling embarrassed, huh?
You!

"They yell from Lahore."
"Come here Sucha, or we'll kidnap you."
"Come here Sucha, or we'll kidnap you."
"They want to die,"
"And blame him for it."
"They want to die,"
"And blame him for it."
"They want to die,"
"And blame him for it."
"They want to die,"
"And blame him for it."
"They want to die,"
"No one dares to interrupt.
Then the ground quivers."
"These boys are a limit
and They break skulls open."
"They break them open
and drag them on the ground."
"They break them open and
drag them on the ground in the fair."
"After that, he twists his mustache."
"After that, he twists his mustache."
"This is great!"
"We play in the afternoons."
"This is great!"
"It is world famous..."
"The friendship Sucha and Ghukkar share."
"Everyone is talking about it."
"Gamblers talk about in the bar."
"Even girls want to be their friends."
"Beauties are queuing up."
"Beauties are queuing up."
"They think they will be next."
"Beauties are queuing up,
seeking their turn."
- Billa?
- Yes?
Did you put the goat in the shaded place?
It will move on its own.
- Jugti?
- Yes?
Who is getting married?
Narain.
I see.
I too have been invited.
He got invited twice and
we weren't even invited once.
It's okay,
we will attend the wedding procession.
Yes.
Laddoos! (sweets)
- Jalebis! (sweets)
- Run! We'll enjoy them.
[folk song]
There you go, son.
We have performed
the pre-wedding ritual.
Yes.
- Be careful now.
- Yes.
I will. But they too need to be careful.
Come on, he is after us now.
It's better to leave now. Let's go.
- Sucha?
- Yes?
We will celebrate like we did
in Narain's first wedding.
It's ready! The first brew!
It will be great!
Anyone who drinks it will enjoy it.
What about the meat, Sucha?
I'll call for it right away.
Shameless brats!
Roaring in the morning?
Don't you have any shame?
It's aunty!
I thought it was uncle.
- Come on.
- What if I was your uncle?
- Then I would have called for goats!
- Get lost, you brats!
- That was amazing!
- Why?
What would your uncle do with the goats?
What were you saying, Ghukkar?
We don't need to call the goats,
we need goat meat at the wedding.
We cannot feed our relatives just sweets.
Why would they only have
sweets when Bhaag is here?
I will serve 36 different
types of delicacies.
Sucha just needs to let go of his grudge.
What do you say?
Forgive him, Sucha Singh.
- Yes, brother.
- I got angry because of his stupidity.
I'll forgive him if you want to.
Bhaag feels fortunate today!
You are very fortunate, Bhaag Singh.
Now tell me whose goat
are we going to take?
I'll tell you.
I'll get rid of your fear too.
Careful, don't go overboard
or we will have nothing left.
What do you say?
Mummy! I'm dead! Mummy!
Got rid of the fear yet?
You got scared already?
We are going to get
the goat from Jhogarala.
Jhogarala?
Whose goats are going
to get from there, brother?
The ones we defeated in
the sack-lifting competition.
What!
I heard the girls in
Jhogarala are very beautiful.
They thrash a lot too.
What? Then I say I'll go back home.
- Follow me.
- We're coming.
- Follow me. Follow me.
- We're coming. We're coming.
- Let's go, let's go, let's go.
- Over there.
- Okay.
- Over there.
- Careful.
- Over there.
Come on, come on.
Come on.
This way, this way.
Come on.
You cannot even pick up a goat, Bhaag?
Come on.
Don't make any noise.
Wait, you...
He will get us into trouble.
- Come on, you cannot even control a kid?
- Let's go.
Who is there?
You'll get us into trouble. Go already.
Hurry up, hurry up.
Battu!
Who is there?
I'll be damned.
Minda! Someone stole our goats!
- Hurry up!
- Who is it? Don't let them escape!
I'm coming down!
Uncle, are you inside the house?
- No, I am outside, son.
- Greetings, aunty.
God bless you, son.
You are about to get married.
What are you doing outside?
Sucha Singh is still sleeping.
Those who go hunting
at night sleep during the day.
Go hunting at night, uncle?
What do you mean?
He stole goats last night.
He...?
Yes.
- Sister, I...
- What goats?
Bhaag brought them.
We just tagged along.
Lambardar is just jealous
of Ghukkar and me.
- He is not jealous.
- He is.
Boys! What are you doing here?
Come here, son.
- We will apply turmeric.
- Yes, aunty!
Brother, stop troubling others
and go get yourself cleaned.
- You are quite dirty.
- Come here, son.
This turmeric paste
will barely take it off.
Come here.
Uncle, I try to talk sense into him.
Our mother's sister's
husband is in the army.
He says we should
make Sucha join the army.
There is nothing better than that, son.
It will make Sucha's life.
I am sure his uncle
thinks the best for him.
Okay, brother, I'll join the army.
First, you go and join them.
Come on, go and apply some turmeric paste.
There you go.
Come here, come here.
Where were you?
Uncle, you will have to step
up and perform all the duties now.
You don't have to say that, Narain Singh.
Your father and I have
worked in the fields together.
He used to consider me as his brother.
- I will take the lead.
- Okay.
I just pray that Baba Rode Shah has mercy,
and we find a match for Socha as well.
He is of age as well.
This is what I am worried about too.
It's okay.
We'll find a match for him as well.
You get ready for your wedding procession.
Come on, come on,
- mother is applying kohl to uncle.
- Hurry up,
don't delay the procession.
Ladies, aren't you
done with your rituals yet?
Sisters-in-law,
apply the kohl so that we can leave.
We won't get the Jalebis if we are late.
Stop it.
You come here.
We won't get the Jalebis.
Don't worry,
they have got a lot of things for you.
Yes.
Go for it.
- Well done.
- Let's go!
Well done! Well done! Well done!
Well done! Well done! Well done!
Gather all the utensils, Banto.
- Where are you going, you idiot?
- Sucha.
- Who's chasing you?
- Where's Sucha?
Inside!
Sucha!
His brother's getting married
and he is still sleeping!
Sucha!
Wake up!
The wedding procession has already left!
- What happened?
- Wake up already.
Go to sleep.
Why did you get up so early?
The ones who reach early get respected.
The ones who reach late
always make an entrance.
Go back to sleep.
Of course, we need to make an entrance.
We get a lot of respect anyway.
We do?
Of course!
A lot.
- Come on, let's dance.
- Girls, you can dance later!
First, clean up the house.
Look how everything is scattered.
Fine aunty, don't scold us.
Let's go, it won't take long to clean up.
- Forget about them, Banto.
- Okay.
Ghukkar had gone inside to wake up Sucha.
- Okay.
- None of them came out.
Okay. They won't catch
up with the wedding procession.
Well done!
The wedding procession is here!
The wedding procession is here!
Hurry up! Hurry up!
There's the wedding procession.
Look, the villagers are already here.
Our boys aren't here as yet, uncle.
Don't worry.
They are responsible lads.
They will be here by the time you
take the vows. Brother is here.
They are here!
- They are here?
- Look over there.
- They are here!
- They are here!
- Brother is here!
- They are here on time!
All that's to the mare.
You didn't do us a
favor by coming on time.
I think it's a horse and not a mare.
Come on, uncle!
It's a mare through and through.
And it has a Mirza riding her.
- Well said.
- Let's go.
Well said. Well said.
- Greetings.
- Greetings.
Where's uncle?
- What are you doing back there, uncle?
- It's okay.
- Greetings.
- Lambardar,
you get to the village
square with the procession.
We will do the meet and greet over there.
Okay, Thahail Singh. No problem.
Uncle, I'll go have a tour
of my brother's in-laws' village.
Okay, son. Go ahead.
Come back on time.
Young blood!
I'm going this way, towards the village.
Let's go, hurry up.
The wedding procession
must have already reached.
- I got scared.
- Me too.
The meet and greet will take
place over there and not here.
Puro!
Have you never seen
a man riding a horse before?
Come on already.
You kept staring at the horse.
- Turn.
- You should have looked at the man as well.
Let's go, Sucha.
- Puro! Let's go! Come with us.
- Let's go.
- Look over there! Look over there!
- Start the meet and greet.
Well done, Lambardar!
- Sucha and others are also back.
- Uncle!
- Look at him.
- Let the uncle do the meet and greet.
- Get it here. Give it here, boy.
- Here you go.
- Come on, uncle.
- It's your turn.
Fine, I'll do it.
Well done!
Amazing!
Great!
This is amazing!
Brother is here!
They are here.
- Aunty, look at uncle!
- Look over there.
Puro?
- Come on, boys.
- Come here, Sucha.
Come here, come on.
- Come here, nephew.
- Come on.
Coming.
- Let the brothers meet and greet.
- Yes, let the brothers meet and greet.
- You are here.
- You came on time, brother.
Whose turn is it?
Come here.
- Come on.
- Not me.
It's his turn.
Go for it.
Hey!
Sucha!
This is insulting!
Come on.
Are you okay?
There you go.
Well done.
- Well done.
- Great job.
You did us proud.
Hey... he is fair like rice.
You should sprinkle some
sugar over and consume him.
- What did you say?
- No, nothing.
- We are just talking about that guest.
- I see.
He's...
It looks like the next wedding
procession too will be headed here.
Yes.
We will get to attend another wedding.
- Stop it.
- Dear...
- Get the Jalebis.
- Are you okay?
That boy got a chance
and he picked him up.
I'm fine.
You are right, Lambardar.
Sucha was no less.
He picked him up and threw
him away like he was a sack.
He is used to it, uncle.
- You are right.
- Yes, right.
He has been like this
since his childhood days.
Sucha?
What happened, Sucha?
Why are you napping at this hour?
Get ready.
Get him ready.
Why are you caressing her like that?
The cat will attack you.
An old woman must have made it and
not the girl who was
standing on the terrace.
She was standing on the terrace back then.
Now she resides in my heart.
Now everywhere I look, I see her dancing.
"Come on, my sisters."
"Come on, my friends."
"Burn the oil lamp."
"Girls have gathered to celebrate."
"She has got the water."
"Look Jagoo is here."
"Let's celebrate, Jagoo is here."
"It's time to have fun, Jagoo is here."
"Boys from Samaon look odd."
"They have patches on their faces."
"Good ones are already
married."
"The ones left here are dumb,
deaf, and duffers."
"They look like a bunch
of moochers."
"Look Jagoo is here."
"Let's celebrate, Jagoo is here."
"It's time to have fun, Jagoo is here."
"Wake up, people from Samaon."
"Look Jagoo is here."
"Girls are singing."
"Look Jagoo is here."
Let's go eat, uncle.
Let's go.
Is that all?
Why did you go quiet?
Answer them.
What will they say?
They are useless.
- They can't do anything.
- This is not fair.
This is how your boys are.
Yes!
"Watch out! Watch out! Watch out!"
"Watch out! Watch out! Watch out!"
"Young boys of Samaon,"
"Will come here to get married."
"Young boys of Samaon,"
"No!"
"He stayed out for 12 years,"
"He stayed out for 12 years,"
"He got back oats."
"Boys from Samaon look like goats."
"Boys from Samaon look like goats."
"He stayed out for 12 years,"
"He stayed out,"
"Go for it."
"He stayed out for 12 years,"
"He got back doves."
"In this village,
I plan to plant to sapling of love."
"In this village,
I plan to plant to sapling of love."
"In this village,"
"Pass the roof of the single boy."
" Slice through the
roof of the single boy."
" Slice through the
roof of the single boy."
"Don't pierce my heart, girl."
"It hurts worse when than
someone slicing through the neck."
"Don't pierce my heart, girl."
"It hurts worse when than
someone slicing through the neck."
"You will get a sprain."
"You will get a sprain,
let me lift you and give you a tour."
"These brats are spoilt."
"These brats are spoilt."
"They have no shame."
- "Look Jagoo is here."
- Hey Puro.
- "Let's celebrate, Jagoo is here."
- You can talk to him. But watch your back.
He is too excited.
- "It's time to have fun, Jagoo is here."
- What's wrong with you?
- "Let's celebrate, Jagoo is here."
- Come on!
"It's time to have fun, Jagoo is here."
"Let's celebrate, Jagoo is here."
Huh?
The wedding procession left?
Wake up, Ghukkar!
Wake up!
Damn you!
- Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!
- What happened?
What happened?
Wake up, Bhaag!
The wedding procession has left.
- Come on!
- Let's go! Bhaag, let's go!
Run!
Wait for me!
I'm coming! Wait for me!
Puro, the one who was
eyeing you didn't show up.
Look, there he is.
The wedding is over.
Huh?
The wedding is over.
The feast is over as well.
Oh.
Trust me.
Look, there they are.
- Let's go.
- Well done!
We are very fortunate.
You all are very responsible people.
- The wedding is over?
- Yes.
No, we just came to see their house.
You must have seen it late at night,
during Jagoo, right?
- Look at your faces.
- Look at them!
Go and have a bath.
Don't go to sleep during the meals.
- Okay.
- Go.
- Let's go.
- Go.
Go and freshen up.
- Get the flatbreads!
- Go and serve it.
I'm getting it.
- "I take the name of Lord and form a couplet."
- Hear that!
They won't let us eat in peace.
- "If you eat without replying to it,
- You are right.
"Then your meal will
become a curse, I said."
- Water?
- "We have had our say."
- "It's your turn now."
- Yes.
"You have to now comply."
"It's time to give a reply."
Come on, boys. Girls have had their say.
- It's your turn now.
- Yes.
Make sure we don't go back hungry.
- "The offerings and the utensils, we don't care."
- Hear that!
"If we can convince the girls here,
dark and fair."
"Sweets and delicacies
are nothing in comparison."
"You all are beautiful angels,
it's not fair."
"Listen to me, girl."
"We are free as we have replied to thee."
- "We have replied to thee."
- That's enough.
Come here, my boy.
You had locked the guests
and the boys got them free.
Let the guests enjoy the meal.
- Sit down.
- Enjoy your meal.
- Good thing, matchmaker.
- Come on.
Let's eat.
Look at them!
They are staring at
food like a starving dog.
Watch it!
Be careful.
It doesn't take long for
Singhs to take what they want.
Well said!
"Look, we have moochers!"
"They are hogging like anything."
"Look, we have moochers!"
"They are hoggers."
"Look, we have moochers!"
"They are hogging like anything."
"Look, we have moochers!"
"They are hoggers."
"Look, we have moochers!"
"They are hogging like anything."
"Look, we have moochers!"
"Look, we have moochers!"
- "Look, we have moochers!"
- Sucha! Sucha!
Lambardar!
The matchmaker is looking for you.
- Sucha!
- Coming, aunty.
These girls are making a lot of noise.
I can't hear a thing.
- How can we talk when I cannot hear anything?
- Listen to me.
- Come here and talk to me.
- Oh no!
Stop it! Where do you want to go?
Inside the kitchen?
Let's go and have some Jalebis.
I wanted to ask,
who do we give the blanket
we were supposed to give your father?
To the Lambardar or your uncle?
- Give me a flatbread.
- Where? What?
He is not an uncle, he is trouble.
Give it to the Lambardar.
Stop it! You always have
to twist everything, don't you?
- Aunty?
- Yes?
What are you doing with this idiot?
Will you meet me in the evening?
Yes?
Don't bother.
She is not something you
can get your hands on so easily.
She too drinks water here,
on Earth, right?
You are to eat and not to serve.
Sit down.
- Sit down already.
- Come on.
"You are just eating everything away."
- This is great.
- Careful.
They are here!
Greetings!
Greetings.
Have a seat, brother-in-law.
On the bed.
Brother...
These are old tricks.
Find some new tricks.
They are smart.
These boys from Samaon are very smart.
They are smart.
Come here, brother-in-law, have a seat.
Go and have a seat, brother.
Welcome!
What's stopping you?
Come have a seat.
- Sit down, brother. Sit down.
- Even your friends approve.
Fine, then I'll sit down.
Get up.
Help him up.
Lift him up.
Did you get hurt, brother?
Brother! Come with us.
- Are you okay, brother?
- Sit over here.
They are smart.
- Sit down, brother.
- These boys from Samaon are very smart.
They are smart.
There you go.
We are not smart.
Who planned this?
Why? Do you want to reward her?
I'll do that.
Then reward me.
I see.
I heard you used to eat walls as a kid.
Huh?
People from Samaon are smart.
Stop it, girls.
Enough of these arguments.
Puro go and get a plate of snacks.
Girls, go ahead and perform the ritual.
Puro?
"Why do you ask me?"
"Why do you ask me?"
"What I won't be able to convey,"
"Why do you ask me?"
"What I won't be able to convey,"
"Without you, you fool,
I won't be able to endure another day."
"I won't be able to survive either."
"Why do you ask me?"
"Why do you ask me?"
"Why do you ask me?"
"I'll brave any storm and
weather every trial,"
"I'll brave any storm and
weather every trial,"
"If only you will pen the first line
of our love's tale."
"I'll brave any storm and
weather every trial,"
"If only you will pen the
first line of our love's tale."
Why are you staring at me?
Have you never seen a girl before?
I have seen many.
But none of them were like Puro.
My mother says people who say
such things never keep their promises.
Looks like your mother has
never come across anyone like Sucha.
A maiden's trust is very delicate.
I hope you won't break it.
Men are proud of their
integrity and their promises.
I offer you both.
- Hmm?
- Hmm.
Have you ever seen a soul
leave through someone's eyes?
No.
Now you will see it.
Don't do this,
- or I will run away.
- Run away then.
Why didn't you run away?
I can't.
Now I won't let you run either.
If you are so courageous
then elope with me.
You don't build homes by deception.
For me,
honor comes first.
Everything else is an afterthought.
Do you really desire to elope?
I was just testing you.
You have to stand strong for your love.
You have to fight for it.
And sometimes,
you even have to die for it.
I accept to do all three.
You won't get scared?
I can scare away half of your village
by just stomping my foot on the ground.
What about the other half?
The other half would cheer me.
My village is Hameerghad.
I am a guest here.
Then I will send the
matchmaker to Hameerghad.
I am not just Sucha by name.
I keep my promises too.
That's why I have come to meet you.
"Don't get into the palanquin,"
"Don't get into the palanquin,"
"Don't get into the palanquin, wearing
silver Kaleeras (dangling ornament)."
"Don't get into the palanquin,
wearing silver Kaleeras."
"Don't start celebrations,"
"Don't start your wedding celebrations,"
"Don't start your wedding celebrations,
my beautiful maiden."
"Don't get into the palanquin,
wearing silver Kaleeras."
"Don't get into the palanquin,
wearing silver Kaleeras."
"Don't get into the palanquin,
wearing silver Kaleeras."
"Heer calls out to Ranjha."
"For you,"
"I will swim with the
help of an unbaked pot."
"My nature is different."
"I am brave, dear."
"I don't intend to die."
"Hold my hand and
take me to your village."
"I don't want to go back home."
"If you won't accept my love,"
"I swear, I will die
causing a lot of commotion."
"Don't fall in love, beautiful."
"You will have to face fire."
"You will have to face fire,
you will have to swim on unbaked pots."
"When the world throws stone,
it is your heart that gets hurt."
"You have to fight
the world with courage."
"You have to fight the world."
"You have to fight the world."
"You have to fight the world."
"You have to fight the world."
I am leaving, I am leaving, I am leaving,
I am leaving my house.
My father has made
me sit in the palanquin.
We have no say then, my dear sister.
Sucha?
Sucha Singh?
The well you are looking
for dried long back.
- Forget the past.
- Nephew!
- Looking good, Singh.
- Singh!
Stop it, Lambardar.
Sucha, I am heading to the fields.
Come on, join your uncle
in plowing the fields today.
Let's see how strong your calves are.
Sucha?
Greetings, uncle.
All good?
All is not good, Sucha Singh.
- What is wrong with him?
- Go on.
His wife, Raj Kaur...
She is having an affair
with someone in the village.
She doesn't listen to us or his parents.
We came to you for help.
If you could talk some sense into them.
Why me?
You are Soorma.
People respect you.
They will listen to you.
Brother!
I found him!
Brother!
I found him! I found him!
His name is Jagat Singh.
Where are you going, Sucha?
There is this little
thing I need to handle.
After that, I will handle his case.
Look at that, uncle.
He just got out of prison.
I hope he doesn't cause any more trouble.
I will go first.
Wait.
I will go first.
No!
Wait!
- Greetings.
- Greetings, young man.
Where does Master Jagat Singh stay?
Yes?
- I am Master Jagat Singh.
- I will go first.
- Wait.
- How can I help you?
Go and serve it.
Sucha Singh,
Puro has already told
me everything you just said.
I never objected to it.
But you are four months too late.
Puro lost hope
when they announced your death sentence.
What do you mean?
I mean
she is a happily married woman now.
Sucha Singh?
You too should settle down now.
You experience true love only once.
Repeating it requires significant effort.
And I have no intention of trying.
Sucha Singh?
I have a request to make.
My daughter's honor lies in your hand.
I can only worship who I consider my god.
Sucha!
What happened?
Surjan!
Why aren't you saying anything, Sucha?
Surjan!
Surjan, is everything alright?
What's wrong?
What?
Sucha!
Say something, please.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Say something at least.
What do I say, brother?
Nothing happened.
What are you hiding, Surjan?
Just tell me.
If he won't tell me then you tell me.
Someone has cast an evil eye
on this family's happiness, brother.
This house was filled
with joy at your wedding.
Come on, girls and boys.
Come here, dear.
Let me show you the bride.
Come here.
- Come here.
- Come dear, sit over here.
- Move aside.
- Sit over here, dear.
- You...
- Get lost.
- Leave.
- I am just looking for my wife.
Go away, uncle.
Look over there.
They are about to lift her veil.
Hey!
There you go!
Look at her!
She is beautiful!
- Ghukkar!
- Yes?
Narain really got lucky
the second time around.
What do you say?
Say the second time around again
and I will make you forget everything.
I was just kidding.
Why are you getting so...
Let it go, Sucha.
So beautiful!
Amazing!
Aunty, she is very beautiful.
Get lost, you idiots!
Let's go tell brother Narain.
- Yes.
- We have seen our sister-in-law.
Brother! Brother!
- She is very beautiful.
- Really?
- Slow down. Calm down.
- I arranged everything.
Who is your matchmaker?
Come on.
Come here.
- Coming!
- I am his uncle!
This match wouldn't have
taken place if not for me.
Yes.
Here, may fortunate shine upon you.
May you live in luxury
and give birth to sons.
I'll go take another look at her.
- Hey!
- Wait!
Calm down! You are so desperate.
My darling daughter-in-law!
- Look at him!
- Why are they going there again and again?
- Come here, boys.
- What's the big deal?
We only saw her once.
Live a long life, dear.
- Congratulations, sister.
- Congratulations to you too, sister.
Congratulations to you too.
- There you go!
- Go for it, Narain!
Get it!
Go for it, brother.
Find it quickly.
She will find it.
Sister-in-law will find it.
She will find it.
She is very smart.
Find it.
Who will win?
My brother will win.
Don't grab her hand!
It is not that easy.
Come on!
Come on, girl.
- Hurry up!
- Where is it?
Go, go, go!
She won!
- Brother...
- Come here!
He switched sides!
- It's okay, it's okay!
- This is not fair.
- You lost!
- I support sister-in-law.
- Calm down! Sit down!
- You lost!
- It's okay, it's okay.
- Your daughter-in-law is quite fast.
I forgot my bottle of kohl,
he won't turn back now. Unclear
- Get some tea.
- I'll get it.
Go take care of it.
I forgot my bottle of kohl,
he won't turn back now.
Wait!
- Enough.
- That's enough, pothead.
This is a limit.
Don't cause my brother a loss,
it will lose its color.
Jay Kaur! Girls!
Perform the first dance
ritual before the guests leave.
- Come on girls, do the ritual.
- Let it be, aunty.
Or the ritual might cause trouble.
- Come on, nephew.
- I'll get him. Don't worry.
- Let it be, uncle.
- Go. I would have rocked the dance floor.
Stay put for once! He keeps falling on me.
Come on.
Stay away.
I didn't get a perfect match.
My fate cheated me.
I didn't get a perfect match.
My fate cheated me.
I didn't get a perfect match.
- Get everything.
- Okay, brother.
My fate cheated me.
I didn't get a perfect match.
My fate cheated me.
I didn't get a perfect match.
My fate cheated me.
Damn it!
What's wrong?
Nothing. Go back to sleep.
What was that sound?
Go to sleep!
Father! Father!
I woke up before you!
He woke up before me! Sucha!
- What's wrong with him?
- What's wrong with him?
Where is he running off to?
What's on his tail?
- Brother?
- What?
I have never been on a horse cart.
I have never been on a mare.
I have never been on anything.
Don't you have anything else to do?
Should I teach you a lesson?
Uncle, will he get
a bed there to sleep on?
He won't stay there if there isn't a bed?
- There you go.
- He sleeps at odd hours.
- They don't let them sleep there.
- Sucha!
- Brother Sucha!
- Sucha!
There you go!
They were the only ones missing.
- We are here!
- Don't go, brother!
What will you do in the army?
- Hug him.
- Come here, come here, come here.
Stop it, brother.
What will he do here?
- He would only waste his time.
- Let it go, uncle. Stop it.
Right.
- Let's go.
- You won't mend your ways.
You made us run for no reason.
You are right.
You still have a chance to join me.
I would have if I wasn't married.
Let's go. Or do you want the sun to set?
We have a long way ahead. Let's go.
Wait, uncle.
Where were you?
I couldn't sleep all night.
So I couldn't get up early in the morning.
Don't stay away at night, got it?
Don't go, my friend.
I feel something wrong
would happen if you leave.
Come on already.
- Do whatever you want.
- Let's go.
I'll handle it.
Take care of my brother.
He eats whoever God gives him.
Go, we will manage on our own.
You take care of yourself.
- Take care!
- God bless them!
- He will be a soldier in the army?
- Come on.
- I too want to get enlisted.
- Come with me.
There is a lot of gunfire there.
Brother, it is rightly said
that your heart is like a wild horse.
You never know where it might lead you.
What do you mean?
Brother, I know
why you can't sleep at night.
You hear girls singing at night, right?
Don't worry, I have got you.
What do you say?
Don't make me hit you, you scoundrel.
He gets it.
Whether he accepts it or not.
What do you say?
What are you doing?
What am I doing?
- I felt like hugging you.
- Stupid girl.
These things should be done alone,
at night.
We got married in front of the villagers.
I have desires, too.
Move back!
What will people say if
they see you doing all this?
You are my husband, and I am your wife.
We can do whatever we want in our house.
Stop it!
Keep your desires to yourself.
The world has set a certain decorum
that has been followed for centuries.
I don't believe in them.
Is this what your father taught you?
- Why are you dragging my father...
- Shut up!
How dare you back answer me!
Do that again, and I'll hit you!
Ghukkar?
Ghukkar?
What's wrong?
Why did you freeze?
No, I didn't.
You are behaving like you have
been caught stealing something.
Steal something? No, I didn't.
Steal...
Mother!
You have forgotten where our house is?
You don't visit anymore.
Mother, come on out!
Coming!
Come in!
Daughter-in-law, get tea!
- Dhan Kaur, get Jalebis.
- I'm coming, mother!
- Come on, dear. This is not fair.
- Come, mother.
You have brought a newlywed with you.
- No, dear. We were distributing sweets.
- Ladoos?
And this Balbiro,
she has no mother-in-law.
- I see.
- I thought...
- Sucha and Ghukkar are very close.
- Have some tea.
That is true.
I told her to come with me,
I'll introduce you to your aunt.
- You did the right thing.
- Yes.
Of course.
Where will they come if not here?
Yes.
The celebration was very good.
I got tired dancing.
Don't worry I will massage your knees.
- How are you, Lambardar?
- I'm good.
Shingra Singh, you should have
at least changed out of your nightwear.
- Uncle! Listen! Listen!
- What?
Why don't we have singers
at the fair this time?
I heard he is a very good singer.
Right, right.
We will call them all.
What's the big deal?
Good morning, Narain Singh.
Any news of Sucha?
He must be fine, Lambardar.
- He is fine, uncle. What could happen to him?
- Good.
Ghukkar, my bull
was bought along with yours.
But my bull is very aggressive.
Really?
I'll check him out.
No problem.
I know that.
Okay, sir.
Sir.
Subedar Singh.
- Sir.
- All boys on the ground.
Right, sir.
- Boys!
- Sir!
Get to the ground now.
The Junior English officer
wants to supervise your drill.
- Okay.
- The one who wins
- will get double the food.
- Really?
Yes.
Come with me.
- Try your best.
- Okay, sir.
Here you go, Balbir Kaur.
You can make the greens on time now.
Wait here, Ghukkar.
- I'll go and get Bagga.
- Okay, get him.
- We will fix him today.
- Welcome.
We should give you a great welcome.
Stop it, sister-in-law.
Come on, boys.
Good, Sucha Singh.
Why do you worry, brother?
Controlling a stubborn
thing is always a delight.
Really?
Fine, I accept it.
You will control it eventually.
But first, have some buttermilk.
- Yours?
- I'll have it later. Keep it here.
You have it.
Attention!
Come on, boys, pull!
Good.
Well done, Sucha Singh.
Damn it!
- Move aside! Move aside, Balbiro!
- Sister-in-law! Move aside!
Move aside! Move back!
He has gone wild.
What are you doing, Ghukkar!
Move aside, sister-in-law.
Yes.
Well done, Sucha Singh.
Ghukkar! Ghukkar!
Are you alright?
- Are you alright?
- I am fine, brother.
- I thought we'd lose Balbiro today.
- It's okay.
Nothing will happen
to her as long as I am here.
Fire!
Sucha, your performance is very well.
Well done, Sucha! You have pleased me.
- Well done!
- Good job.
Get the lunch, Balbir Kaur.
I'll eat first and then fix the plow.
Where are you?
What are you doing?
You are a limit.
This is not a funfair.
What will people say?
You are always concerned
about what people will say.
Yes, I am concerned.
Get lost from here.
You start dancing wherever you feel like.
She is always so desperate to dance!
My fate cheated me.
I didn't get a perfect match.
My fate cheated me. I...
Can you only sing
or can you dance as well?
I cannot dance with my arms
out like you do, sister-in-law.
Only you can dance like that.
Really?
You keep thinking about me,
but you never meet me.
I'll drop by.
You should show me your wounds too,
sometimes.
Your presence will give
me a few moments of joy.
Otherwise, I am just surviving.
What are you thinking, brother?
It is a good deed.
Give her what she wants.
Narain is like brass.
You are gold and she is silver.
It is always gold and
silver that look good together.
What do you say?
Hmm?
He gets it.
Whether he accepts it or not.
What do you say?
If you have already removed
your veil then keep it off.
Are you sure?
Will you be able to handle it?
I followed my heart and united with you.
What if your friendship becomes a barrier?
I controlled myself for so
long because of that friendship.
There is one thing everyone
knows about Ghukkar.
First, I do take a path.
If I do, I don't turn back.
So what have you decided?
Do you want to do it or turn back?
It will be difficult.
It has never been easy.
Your songs don't let me sleep at night.
What about the day?
I won't let you sleep during the day.
Go now.
Really?
I don't want you to leave,
but your brother will come home for lunch.
I don't feel like leaving, Biro.
I don't feel like it,
either, but you will have to leave.
I'll send a message through
Bhaag and you can come back.
- Go.
- Fine,
- I'll come back.
- Give me my veil back.
So my suspicion was true.
Didn't you feel ashamed
to betray your friend?
Didn't you feel ashamed to do all this?
I will kill you!
Go inside!
Go inside right now!
There is a limit to shamelessness,
you shameless woman!
You have crossed all limits.
Who are you to stop me?
She is my wife.
She must be your wife.
But she belongs to me.
What do you mean?
Never raise your hand on Biro again,
or I will break it
and put it on your hand.
Remember that.
- This war is going on forever.
- Yes.
Uncle, I heard they aren't
letting soldiers go on leave.
How will they get leaves?
Englishmen are enlisting more
Punjabis and sending them to war.
- Really?
- That's because our people are good fighters.
Yes, you are right, uncle.
- Roopa!
- Yes, Billa?
Narain's Biro is opening flaunting it.
You are right.
This is the first time such
a thing has happened in our village.
You are right, uncle.
She crossed all limits.
- Right.
- His wife is something.
Narain can't do anything.
He should just slap her.
Yes, she deserves a thrashing.
Yes, had she been mine,
I would have skinned her alive.
Father, milk.
When you lose your honor at your in-laws'
house, the news spreads far and wide.
You should have thought about it, dear.
You too should have
thought about it, father,
before marrying me
to this useless old man.
There is something known
as age compatibility as well.
He is so old-fashioned.
He had me tied up like
people tie up their animals.
I just broke my end of the rope.
Now he can hold his end
of the rope all he wants.
You cannot run a family like that, dear.
Tell him to mind his own business.
I will keep feeding him.
He should not expect
anything more from me.
Narain Singh,
I cannot even look into your eyes.
You can keep her, beat her, or kill her.
Do as you please.
You have my support.
'She must be your wife.'
'But she belongs to me.'
'I just broke my end of the rope.'
'Now he can hold his
end of the rope all he wants.'
What did the letter say?
Why is he so angry?
Sir!
Sergeant!
Yes?
- What is it, Sucha?
- I want a few days off.
You are asking for the impossible.
They are preparing to
send us to France for the war
and you want to go on a leave.
Then you should strike me off that list.
My brother Narain will
die if I don't leave now.
Fine, I'll talk to the junior officer.
I'll let you know by tonight.
- Are you going to have dinner, boys?
- Yes, sir.
Where is Sucha?
In the barrack, sir.
Fine, you can carry on. Go on.
Sucha Singh, the senior officer
didn't sanction your leave.
Okay then, I am running away.
Hey!
You heard me.
Where will you go, Sucha?
They hunt and find deserters.
What will they do? Shoot me?
Let them. I don't have any desire to live.
Sucha!
Sir, the senior officer's
bungalow is on fire!
Quickly go and extinguish the fire!
I'll go and inform the officer.
He is in a meeting.
Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!
Hurry up!
Sir! Sir! Sir!
Sir!
Your home... fire!
Your little girl and
your wife are still inside.
Inside, sir.
Come. Hurry up, sir. hurry. Come, come.
You too, sir. Come.
Hey! Boys! Come with us! Hurry up!
Let's go and extinguish the fire.
Let's go and get sir's wife out.
Hurry up.
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
Come fast, Sucha Singh. Hurry up.
Come on, come on. Run!
- Run!
- Sucha!
Come fast.
Come on, come on.
Well done, Sucha Singh.
Well done, Sucha.
Well done. Good job. Good job.
- Are you okay, Sucha?
- Well done.
Quickly get the water!
Getting it, sir.
- Get the water!
- Go get the water!
My brother was great!
Well done.
Well done, Sucha. Well done.
- You are so brave, Sucha. Well done.
- You were great.
Sir.
Sir, okay?
Sir, Sucha Singh.
Very brave.
Thank God his kids are fine.
Sir, Sucha.
Thank you, Sucha Singh.
Thank you for saving my family.
- Makar?
- Yes?
This axe has gone blunt. Fix it.
Fine, brother. Keep it here.
Brother, I wanted to say something.
You are great.
You are handling two families.
He couldn't even handle one.
- Yes, brother.
- Yes.
Don't joke.
That's all we can do, brother.
No, brother.
We had come to get a noose.
- No, we had come to get a shovel.
- Yes, yes.
I need to go somewhere
or I would have thrashed you.
How are you doing, Ghukkar?
- I am good. How about you?
- I too am good.
Makar, he is going for that.
How does it concern us?
Ouch, the water's hot.
Where are you going now, all dressed up?
Have some shame.
Where's my lunch?
It's in the kitchen, have it.
Do you think you'll ask and
I'll tell you where I am going?
Mind your own business.
What did my brother ask?
- Where are you going?
- Sucha!
My brother is back!
Yes, I am back. Wait, brother.
- What did my brother ask?
- I was going to the mill.
- Which mill?
- Water. Well.
What water? Which well?
Ask him.
- The well.
- Tell me!
- Ask him!
- Who do I ask?
Who?
Balbir Kaur!
Balbir Kaur!
Run away if you want to stay alive,
you scoundrel!
Or you will die!
Come on, when did ants get wings?
Don't you think you
have started talking a lot?
Looks like I will have to talk
to Ghukkar and have you thrashed.
Only then will you learn a lesson.
What did you say?
Huh?
Sucha... you?
When did you come back?
Brother, I... I was just joking.
Ghukkar!
Where are you?
Ghukkar!
- Where are you?
- Why are you out of breath?
Where is Balbiro?
She won't be coming.
He is back.
Who is back?
Sucha is back, brother.
Our lives are in danger.
He will kill us.
What do you say?
What do you think Biro will do?
Now that Sucha is back.
She will do something.
She is very clever.
She is very cunning.
A woman like her would
kill a man without blinking.
- Yes.
- Yes, Banto.
- You are absolutely right.
- Yes.
There you go.
You are done for.
Sucha isn't here on leave.
I heard he left the army.
- Really?
- Yes.
Who is stronger, out of the two of them?
- Come on.
- Forget about who is stronger.
Their nature suggests that only
one of them will live to tell the tale.
- I think Ghukkar is very strong.
- Sucha is also very strong.
- Yes.
- Ghukkar is a cheetah.
- He can eat a whole goat.
- Sucha is a soldier.
He has a lot of meat.
How are you doing, Sucha Singh?
- Come on.
- Hey!
- Come on.
- We're coming.
- Come on, come on.
- We're coming.
Come on, come on.
He is going towards Ghukkar's house.
They are going to fight.
- They are going to fight today.
- Really?
- Then what are we doing here?
- Let's go and watch.
- Let's go, let's go, let's go.
- Let's go, brother.
- Stop.
- Yes, what is it?
What happened was...
Oh no!
Oh no!
Mother! Mother!
- Sucha... is here!
- Don't step outside, son.
Mother, strong winds can blow
off sheds but not concentrate roofs.
Oh no, mother...
Oh no, what is this?
What is going on?
- Stop!
- Mother...
- Don't step outside, mother.
- Stop!
God bless you, son.
You two should come inside, son.
We are fine out here, aunty.
Go inside, mother.
Come inside, Ghukkar.
Go inside, mother!
Why are you here?
I am here to take the turban back
Which turban?
The one I gave you when
I accepted you as my brother.
I don't want to give any justifications.
I am not going to ask for any.
And I won't believe in any either.
Believe it or not,
I told you don't go,
something might go wrong.
That's why I tried to stop you.
You cannot use that excuse to survive.
Women make excuses.
Ghukkar comes straight to the point.
The point is that I asked
you to look after my brother Narain.
You were supposed to
protect my family, Ghukkar.
And the protector himself
destroyed the family.
You didn't think about our friendship
even once before doing this, Ghukkar?
I really tried to stop myself.
She wouldn't let me sleep
when I used to close my eyes.
When I used to go to the fields,
she used to stay in front of me.
Her beauty got over my head.
Biro's beauty was making me go crazy.
Enough!
Enough!
- We're coming, we're coming.
- Come on.
How can 20 days of attraction
ruin 20 years of friendship?
Your intentions weren't good, Ghukkar.
Your intentions weren't good.
Believe what you want.
But I cannot back out now.
I know how to make you back out.
I won't just make you back
out but also teach you a lesson.
Don't call me Sucha if I don't.
Leave!
This isn't a circus.
Look at them enjoying the show!
- Let's go.
- Run!
My name is Ghukkar Mall.
Let's see who teaches whom a lesson.
That's why I left the army.
The next time we meet,
only one of us will walk out alive.
- Who knows what lies tomorrow?
- Let's do it right now.
Come on then.
- No, son!
- Go inside, mother.
No, son.
Sucha...
Go back, son.
Another time, Ghukkar.
Don't enter my place even by mistake.
If you do, you won't leave it alive.
- Let's go watch the fair!
- Sandals for sale!
Let's go, I am coming too!
We have cleaned up well.
- We don't look like workers anymore.
- Keep it down.
No one should find out.
Well done.
Well done.
Black crows have turned white today.
- Uncle Nazar...
- Yes?
It's well known that people come
here on a no-moon day to take a dip.
People come here from
far and wide to take a dip.
What's the big deal?
Billu!
Billa! You bathe once a month.
Look, he too is making fun of us.
Let's go, Singhara.
Coming!
- Come on.
- Coming!
Who are these outsiders?
We have never seen them before.
- They are hooligans from Jawarka.
Chirag and his gang. - I see.
Are they too here to take a dip, uncle?
That is just an excuse.
- Ghukkar has called them over.
- Move aside.
Then there is going to be
a fight at the fair for sure today.
- Let's go, brother.
- It will happen right here.
- Let's go.
- Listen!
Don't get crushed in the crowd.
Don't worry, uncle.
We are fine. We are absolutely fine.
A woman passing by stopped,
kept her hands on her waist, and said,
- "Let me take a bunch of grams."
- Jatt roared and said,
"Don't you dare curse my grams!"
"Your shadow will cause
the moonlight to kill my grams."
Tell them what happened next.
"Why would I renounce
the world and wear earrings,"
"If this world truly valued love?"
"If this world valued love?"
"You wouldn't have refused the proposal."
"And your lover wouldn't
have been beheaded."
"Why would I renounce
the world and wear earrings,"
"If this world truly valued love?"
"You wouldn't have refused the proposal."
"And your lover wouldn't
have been beheaded."
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
- Hey!
- What?
Ghukkar is here.
- Sucha didn't come back?
- He got scared.
Sucha got scared? Don't make me hit you.
Sucha, you shouldn't go to the fair alone.
Brother,
if the lion doesn't react,
the jackals get delusional.
"It is never your enemy,"
"It is always a friend who backstabs you."
"It is never your enemy,"
"It is always a friend who backstabs you."
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
There's my friend!
Try your luck!
"A woman's shadow is worse than death."
Who hit him?
I did.
He was acting smart.
Stop it!
No, boys.
Come on.
Hey!
- I'll kill you right here!
- Stop it!
Stop.
Stop it, brother.
Narain, take him away.
Get him out of here.
I won't spare you!
Hey!
Go away, people have come here
to enjoy the fair and not your fight.
Take them away.
- Let's go.
- Let me go!
It's okay, it's okay.
These things are quite common at a fair.
Where is the singer?
- Come on out.
- I am here.
I am over here.
You are hiding over here?
Take your instrument
and sing your song.
I won't be able to sing anymore.
I'll get something to drink.
Get him a drink so he can sing.
- Get on with it.
- Yes, then perhaps I'll be able sing something.
Ghukkar, if we were going
to end up drinking at home,
then why did we have to go out there?
People will say that Ghukkar got scared.
You are right, Bhaag Singh.
That's what people will think, Ghukkar.
First, they stop you
and then they blame you.
Who got us to stop, huh?
I would have torn him apart right there.
What's wrong now?
We can do it right now.
If we don't do the right
thing even after the first brew,
then we will be insulting the alcohol.
What do you say?
Let's go back to the fair!
Pass through the village roaring.
Everyone should know who
Ghukkar is and who his friends are.
Ghukkar is acting smart
by calling outsiders.
Looks like they won't back out.
You should have added
some water to it, brother.
Come on out!
Come on out!
"Soorma!"
It's not you,
it's your death roaring, Ghukkar.
"Come on, come on, come on."
"My friends, women are a mystery."
"They cannot be trusted."
"They are beauty personified."
"They can do the impossible."
"If one falls for their trap,"
"If one falls for their trap,"
"They can even make
a Cheetah have a crow."
"They take you to the peak,"
"And then move the floor off your feet."
"They take you to the peak,"
"And then move the floor off your feet."
"Come on, come on, come on."
"See how people fall for them,"
"When they dress up."
"They have even becharmed
Gods like Indra."
"They don't let you think."
"Sometimes they cry like Laila."
"Sometimes they cry like Laila."
"Sometimes they roar like Kaali."
"He dies a miserable death,"
"Who takes this path."
"Come on, come on, come on."
"They dance like there
is no tomorrow."
"They make you lose your throne."
"They even give illiterate,
lessons in love."
"They are magicians, my friend."
"They are magicians,"
"They are magicians, my friend."
"They get men killed."
- "They are--"
- Stop it!
Listen up, everyone.
Balbiro belongs to Ghukkar.
- I'll use all my might to keep her!
- How dare you!
Hey! Come on!
You...
Someone stop them!
Someone stop them!
No! Don't!
Hey!
Run! Run! Run!
No! Don't!
Someone will die!
No! Don't!
Why are you trying to kill each other?
Stop it!
Let him go, Sucha!
- Brother!
- You'll kill each other!
Bhaag! Stop him!
Get him out of here!
Narain! Get him or they will die fighting!
Take them away!
Stop fighting!
For God's sake, stop it!
Take him away!
Don't ruin our village's image.
Take him away!
Take him away!
- For God's sake, stop it!
- Let's go, brother.
For God's sake, stop it!
Don't ruin our village's image.
As someone wisely noted,
it's preferable to remain single
than to be married to a bad wife.
She is the reason half
of the villagers are injured.
- And she is here, making flatbread.
- Yes.
She could have cooked at home.
She has the whole village on fire.
Why does she need to
start a cooking fire at home?
She should go and see the condition
of Sucha and Ghukkar and their families.
Take it easy, Surjan.
Heat some ghee quickly, brother.
We'll apply that and bandage the wound.
- It will heal in a couple of days.
- Take this, I'll be right back.
Couldn't you cook at home?
Why did you step out of the house?
What do you plan to do now?
- What have I done now?
- What have you done?
You haven't done anything, right?
Brother!
Go heat some ghee.
Bad deeds always have
bad results, Ghukkar.
- You should mend your ways.
- Yes.
You still have time.
- Keep quiet, mother.
- How can I keep quiet?
Your father died and left
me to deal with all this nonsense.
What are you doing?
Mother!
What have I done?
Why are you scolding her?
The deeds you have committed...
Your father would have killed you for it.
Hold this.
- Stop it, mother.
- Hey!
You've got your whole family into trouble.
You can take it in writing if you want,
for one thing is certain,
this fight won't end.
- It is inevitable.
- Right.
Half of the villagers
are injured, brother.
Even if the whole village is injured,
no one can stop the bloodshed now.
The messenger of death is ready.
He is certain to take
a couple of people with him.
- You are right.
- Pratap and Banto, listen.
They say a bad woman
can shake the throne of any.
It is true.
- Look at what Biro did.
- Right.
People used to give examples
of Sucha and Khukkar's friendship.
And now they give
examples of their enmity.
This woman is a man-eater.
That witch won't be sated
till she consumes 3-4 men.
- Right.
- True.
Mallo!
This is a serious matter.
- Uncle? They had a big fight yesterday.
- Yes?
I have never seen such a fight.
We found a singer hiding
behind uncle Nazar.
- We're coming!
- Look over there, guys.
Look over there.
- Chirag and his gang are still here.
- Look over there.
Ghukkar won't stop.
Ghukkar might stop, but sleazy
Bhaag won't stop instigating him.
He will cause trouble.
Forget about them.
Lambardar was called
for a meeting in Barnala.
I hope the police don't show up.
Don't worry, we will know by tonight.
Where does Sucha Singh Jawanda stay?
Go straight and take a right.
The first home on the right side.
Okay.
There you go, uncle.
Sucha too has sought help from outside.
I am Narang Singh.
Does Sucha Singh stay there?
Welcome, Narang Singh!
This belongs to you, Sucha Singh.
- Sir remembered.
- Come, have a seat.
This is the best thing about the British.
They don't forget good or bad.
They did the paperwork and
gave me the gun to deliver to you.
Right on time.
Who is out there?
Who is it?
What are you doing out here?
I... I had come to ask about dinner.
We'll have some. Go and make it.
I'll go make it.
Sucha Singh, what I heard...
It's true.
- That is true.
- Narang Singh, you too are on leave?
A cart will take you to Sunam.
You will get a train
to Ferozpur from Sunam.
Sucha Singh, are you home?
Sucha Singh, call me in the
middle of the night and I'll be there.
Don't forget your friend from the army.
- Greetings.
- Okay, Narang Singh.
Sucha...
Sucha, I needed to discuss
something important with you.
Sucha, I will go drop Narang to the cart.
Come with me, brother.
Sucha Singh, you go talk to them.
I'll get going.
Yes, uncle?
We had a meeting in Barnala.
The police know about the fight.
We have handled the situation for now.
If it happens again then
the police will get involved.
Lambardar,
only one of us will stay in this village.
Ghukkar,
look, son,
we pleaded with them and saved you two.
You two will get into
trouble if it happens again.
And our village will get a bad name too.
Biro! Biro!
Here you are getting water!
Your lover is missing you.
He asked, when will you meet him?
Find a way to meet him.
What do you say?
If someone sees us together,
then you will get thrashed
and I'll be punished too.
I'll let you know if
I get a chance to meet you.
Bhaagya!
I'll be damned.
Where did he come from?
Stop, you...!
Stop!
Stop, you...!
Wait, you scoundrel,
I'll teach you a lesson.
You won't mend your ways, will you?
Come home with me and
I'll teach you a lesson.
Come with me.
Wait and watch, brother.
This is going to cause big trouble.
You are talking about trouble?
She will cause murders.
Come with me!
You still won't stop will you,
you characterless woman!
Why don't you just die?
How is this my fault?
It is your fault.
It's my fault?
Yes, it is your fault.
Because a husband and wife's
relationship is like a weak wall
which needs to be plastered every day.
The wall falls if it
isn't plastered, mister.
Really?
What are you trying to say?
The sun will rise in the west
the day wives are given their voice.
Then the sun will rise in the west.
Have your say.
What do I say?
You can kill me if you want,
you are a Jawanda.
Ask your brother,
I wasn't always like this.
He forced me to do it.
A relationship shouldn't
be purely physical;
it needs an emotional connection too.
His heart seems made of stone.
He would push me away whenever
I tried to embrace him.
He would curse if I danced
in the fields, saying,
"What will people say, you fool?"
So, what do people say now?
People would have said something
better than what they are saying now.
He ruined my youth.
Do you have any answers?
Ask your father,
who got you married to him.
Even if everything you say is true,
what gives you the
right to behave this way?
You could have embraced him inside.
You could have danced in the courtyard.
Who did you want to please
by dancing in the fields?
You cannot have lovers
in your husband's village.
You cannot be forgiven for your misdeeds.
You will be punished for this.
Brother...
Go inside.
Come on.
- Go inside.
- Let me go.
- You have made my life miserable.
- Let me go.
- Go inside.
- Restricting women often leads to death.
- Remember that!
- Stop.
Someone will die and that someone is you.
But not yet.
First, I will kill
Ghukkar in front of you.
Then I will kill you.
Come on out, you so-called warrior!
You had asked me not to enter your area,
but look I am standing outside your house!
You have come alone.
You have come alone.
Where are your friends?
Lions hunt alone, Ghukkar.
You just watch how the crowd
you have gathered disappears.
He shot me!
Where are your friends now, Ghukkar?
Call them.
Do you have anyone standing
here in your support?
The one who used to stand in your
support is standing on your chest now.
Ghukkar, tell me before you die,
didn't you think about our friendship
even once, before doing this?
All this wouldn't have happened,
if I had thought about it.
You too don't think about our friendship.
Just shoot and kill me.
"Soorma!"
You desperately wanted to meet your lover,
didn't you?
Go ahead and embrace him.
Show your dance to all the villagers.
Forgive me.
I beg you.
No, sister-in-law Balbiro.
Some things can't be forgiven.
Listen, villagers!
Listen to me very carefully!
Anyone who does anything
like these two did,
then I will make sure they
will meet the same fate these two did.
Nephew?
Sucha Singh?
Are you alright?
What did you want to discuss, uncle?
Look, Sucha Singh,
Raj Kaur had initially mended
her ways after you talked to her,
but she has once again
gone back to her old ways.
These days, she openly goes
to Gajjan's place without any shame.
When this man tried to stop them,
Gajjan sent him away.
Gajjan tells everyone in the
village that Raj Kaur belongs to him.
He'll use all his might to keep her!
'Balbiro belongs to Ghukkar.'
'I'll use all my might to keep her!'
Gajjan didn't say that.
It was forthcoming
death that made him say it.
"Soorma!"
Who is it?
Who is it?
Who are you?
- How many people live in Gajjan's place?
- Three.
One on the roof,
one on the ground floor,
and me.
Huh?
Sucha...
Soorma?
Where's Gajjan?
He's inside.
- He's asleep.
- When will he wake up?
I don't he won't be waking up anymore.
Tie him up.
I... I...
Keep your hair open.
I had given you a chance,
but you didn't take it.
Your child is crying for food
and you are sating your heart here?
Don't you have any shame?
Hey! Who dared to speak in that tone--
Brother?
You didn't take me seriously, did you?
I had. I did.
Run away!
Stop!
Come here.
Yes?
- Go.
- Come with me.
- Run away!
- Goodbye, brother. Bye.
Greetings!
Brother?
Why did you let them leave?
Where will they go?
Let the villagers know the punishment
for acting like Biro and Raj Kaur.
Let's go.
- This way.
- Come on.
- Come on, run.
- Yes, yes.
I'm coming!
- Come on!
- I'm coming!
Enough.
Oh no.
No, no...
No, no...
A bad man can ruin an entire generation.
A bad woman can ruin
many generations to come.
After these murders
Sucha Singh went underground.
Then one day,
he was arrested because one of on his men
give out his location.
Soorma was charged with Gajjan
and Raj Kaur's murders
and he was eventually sentenced to death.
In 1916,
in village Gehri Bhaagi,
under the same tree,
where Soorma killed Gajjan and Raj Kaur
he was hanged till death.
- Move back!
- Step back!
He alone is brave,
The one who fights
for the underprivileged.
He may get cut into pieces,
But he'll never leave the battlefield.
"Soorma!"
