Past... The past cannot be dealt with.
It is our own responsibility to free ourselves
from the darkness of the past.
I tried a lot, Sai,
but I am not able to free myself from my past.
Give some time to time, Mr Ramcharan.
Sai, how do you know my name?
You have come to Shirdi, roam around a bit.
What has not happened till now
may happen now.
May Lord Rama bless you!
Sai, but...
I have to go to Nashik.
If Sai has said so, then stay here for a few days, Mr Ramcharan.
'Nandini will soon realise the incompleteness in her life.'
'And the one who gives her this feeling'
'will also fill her emptiness.'
Was Sai giving a hint about Nandini's marriage?
If you want to go to a wedding, you can go,
but complete your task before you go.
But the village is very far away.
If I don't go now, how will I get there?
You can go. I will finish your work.
May your home be filled with happiness,
and get her married soon, Jhipri.
Oh, look how sad she is now.
After hearing about the marriage,
there is no smile on her face, nor sparkle in her eyes.
I'll get going, Jhipri.
Jhipri, what was the need to take her work upon yourself?
She has to go to another village for a wedding,
and she must have many tasks before that.
If the wedding were in Shirdi, we would all have gone.
Why all of us? Without invitation?
This is Shirdi, Nandini.
No one gives an invitation here.
No matter whose house there is a wedding, the whole of Shirdi
takes the responsibility of some task or the other.
Tell me something,
do you not feel like getting married?
I feel like travelling the whole world, Jhipri,
but I am stuck here in Shirdi.
And Jhipri, the mind's desire cannot be fulfilled by just wishing it.
Uh... By the way, Jhipri,
why are you suddenly after my marriage?
Am I a burden to you... - No!
You're not a burden to me at all, madam!
Stop thinking all this, for Lord Khandoba's sake.
Well, Jhipri, I have lived with many relatives,
but you... You are different.
Different? Good different or bad different?
Good different, Jhipri!
Okay, listen, take this home.
There's some stitching left in it.
We'll do it at home together.
Nathu, as soon as this big mango falls,
we will both eat it.
By the grace of Bholenath,
how would Sai have known my name?
And on top of that, his words? I didn't understand one bit.
'Give some time to time.'
'Roam around in the streets of Shirdi.'
But what will be the use of roaming in the streets of Shirdi?
Kashi, pluck it quickly!
[eerie music]
Oh, bees! Help me, please!
Oh, help me!
Someone save me from these bees!
[intense music]
Oh, there are so many bees! Help me!
Oh, help me. Help me, Sai.
It was not Sai, but I saved you.
Open your eyes.
[eerie music]
Come on, keep walking.
We will hide under this blanket and get away from these bees.
Come on, hurry up!
[intense music]
Now you go your way and I'll go mine.
First, he was screaming for help.
And when I saved his life,
he started staring at me.
Look at his age. He must have been my father's age.
Such a weird man!
Even the bucket got stuck today.
Did I fill too much water?
Hey, you?
Why are you staring at me like that?
I just came to help you, by the grace of Bholenath.
Did I ask for your help? No, right? Move, come on!
[tense music]
I wanted to talk to you about something.
Don't you have any other work?
[water splashing]
Tomorrow is Gudi Padwa, Sai.
Nandini has returned just for the sake of it.
She hasn't started the work yet.
If she starts, I don't know if she will do it or not.
I was at the Maruti temple today,
and Nandini passed by at that time as if...
she had turned her face away from the temple walls.
Sai, everyone is saying that the work of decoration
with colours will not be done till Gudi Padwa.
Who is worshipped in Gudi Padwa, Appaji?
Lord Brahma, Sai.
Lord Brahma, the one who created this universe.
He gave this life to all of us in this form.
So that we can play our role in this vast world.
You're right, Sai.
So the same Lord Brahma must have chosen Nandini also
for the decoration of Gudi Padwa.
Then why are we worrying about it?
Leave it all to Lord Brahma.
Even the biggest crisis has been solved
in Shirdi by the grace of God.
But, Sai, this time, there is not such a big crisis here,
still, there is so much delay?
A crisis is not just what is visible.
Please carry on. I'll be there.
Om Sai Ram!
[theme music playing]
Where is Jhipri?
She said that both of us would sew the corners of the quilts together.
When will she come?
She is here!
- Greetings! - You?
- How dare you come to my house! Get out! - Ah!
Or else I'll bring some firewood.
Mr Ramcharan, you?
You reached here?
I was looking for you there.
- Jhipri, how... - Mr Ramcharan told me.
You've met him, right?
- What's this? - Nothing. Just a little burn.
My hand accidentally touched her hot ladle.
Go and bring some turmeric.
Please come, sit here.
Go now!
- It's not burning, right? - No, nothing to worry about.
Apply it to his hand.
[tense music]
Here, take it.
By the grace of Bholenath, it's for you.
- What is it? - He's giving it with such love.
Please take it.
Jhipri, why should I take this?
Gift.
I don't want it, and who are you?
Why should I take this gift from you?
- What's happening here, Jhipri? - It's nothing, Nandini.
Mr Ramcharan is a reputed moneylender of Sinnar.
You saved him from the bees,
so he wants to give you a gift.
These gold earrings and a ring?
For saving him from the bees?
May I ask you why you have come to Shirdi?
[dramatic music]
I'll tell you that later.
I don't want these. I haven't done any favours.
Give it to me. I'll give it to her.
Jhipri, didn't I tell you I don't want these?
Hey, Nandini, listen to me...
Leave it all to me.
I know what I have to do.
Your job will be done.
You should have dropped us off at home at least.
You're leaving us here halfway.
You gave me half the money.
Your bullock cart will get stuck in the middle of the forest.
You will get such a stomach ache that you will be in great pain.
At least somehow, we reached Shirdi with half the fare.
Now, who will tell us the way to Shirdi,
and who will tell us where Jhipri's house is?
Why are you stuck like this?
What did you see that made you hiccup?
Hey, look at that!
[jolly music]
Oh, a gold ring?
What are you looking at? Someone might have lost it.
Pick it up and put it in your pocket.
- Ahh! - Huh?
Hey, what's wrong?
Hey, what happened?
There are ants here! Can't you see?
- These ants! - The ring should not get lost
because of your shaking. Look, give the ring to me first.
Do whatever you want to do with the ants later.
[intense music]
[upbeat music]
It is made of brass,
but due to greed, a person considers brass as gold.
And he does harm to himself.
I hope you don't do anything like that.
Be quiet!
You dare to lecture me!
Who are you anyway?
Shirdi is that way.
The third house belongs to Jhipri.
[suspenseful music playing]
How did he know
whose house we were looking for?
Exactly. Jhipri's house...
- That way. - Hey! Wait.
- Let me check whether it is made of brass. - It's original gold.
The design is also so beautiful. Right?
Jhipri, I told you I didn't want them.
Then, why did you accept it?
Can I know why he's being so generous?
Hey!
He wants to thank you.
How do you know him?
Jhipri, whatever is happening right now is suffocating me.
It's something
related to the past.
- Nandini dear! - My dear Nandini!
Uncle Tukaram and aunt!
Nandini!
My girl! Nandini!
How are you?
Who gets so upset with one's uncle and leaves everything behind?
No way! These ties are made by blood.
They can't break like this.
We came to meet you.
Now, we know where Jhipri's house is.
Now, we will visit often.
[tense music playing]
I'll bring juice for you.
Okay. Go ahead.
[suspenseful music playing]
First, that wealthy man came,
and now, my uncle and aunt.
Things seem fishy to me.
Why have you come here?
Look. Let go of your anger.
Come here. Listen to me.
I remember what Uncle Tukaram and aunt have done to me.
But Jhipri?
What's wrong with her?
Am I misunderstanding?
Jhipri is hiding something from me.
I am not a fool.
I know it.
Something is cooking up.
Oh, God!
Look. I forgot this due to the chatter.
Wait.
- Take it out. What are you doing? - I'm giving it.
Hey! Take a look.
These are gold bangles.
Accept it.
Last time, that old man
wanted to give Rs 200 to marry Nandini.
Now, he has increased by another Rs 100.
Now, he's ready to give Rs 300.
Look. You can keep
- 100 out of the 300. - Keep it.
But dear, please convince Nandini.
That old man has come to Shirdi.
[dramatic music playing]
'Hand it over to me. I will give it to her.'
[Nandini coughs]
Hey! Come, my dear.
- Come. - Sit down.
Yes. We'll sit.
- Sit down. - Yes. I'm sitting.
Hand it over, dear.
- Yes. - Give it to me, dear.
[tense music playing]
Jhipri,
I cannot believe
you'd do this to me.
I will
find out the truth, Jhipri,
even if I have to play your game with you.
Nandini?
Did Uncle Tukaram and aunt leave already?
You didn't ask them to stay back for the night.
Yes.
No. They had to do some urgent work. That's why they didn't stay back.
Forget about Uncle Tukaram and aunt.
Wear these earrings once and show me.
[dramatic music playing]
Jhipri, I'll wear these earrings.
But please tell me what you're trying to do.
Will you wear it?
Really?
Do you trust me?
You're the only one in this world
whom I want to trust, Jhipri.
So, trust me blindly.
You will never regret it.
It's my promise.
I want you to attend a wedding with me.
Will you come along?
[dramatic music playing]
I'll be back.
[tense music playing]
[mellow music playing]
Do you know
distrust can make a person hollow?
Yes.
I know it.
It's cooked and delicious.
Sai,
you know it, as well.
One moment is enough to lose someone's trust.
But regaining that trust
takes years.
But nothing is impossible for my Sai.
Do you genuinely think
Nandini's lost trust
will return by tomorrow?
Sai!
I made this. Right?
It has dried now.
We can fill it with water starting tomorrow. Look!
- Do you like 'khichdi'? - Yes, aunt.
Here you go. Be careful. It's hot.
Hold it with both your hands.
[Bayaza chuckling]
Guthli made this pot yesterday.
It got baked under the scorching sun for two days.
It's ready now.
Similarly, after facing the scorching heat of life,
Nandini is also ready now.
Trust is standing at her doorstep.
It merely has to knock.
Then, the door will open.
The deadly poison of distrust that's hollowing her out from the inside
will soon come out, Bayaza Maa.
[devotional song playing]
So, what do you think?
I mean... Will she be ready to do our work
for Rs 100?
I'm sure she will be ready.
100 rupees is a hefty amount.
The best of the best sell their conscience for that amount.
- Hmm. - You are correct.
She has to bring Nandini to the wedding.
Then, I will deck her up as a bride and bring her to the altar.
Yes.
That's okay.
But where will we stay for the night?
Er?
Yes. I heard about a massive 'wada' here.
People can stay there.
Who will pay the rent?
I don't know where that old man went.
Had he been here,
we would've asked him to pay the rent for us.
But he has come to Shirdi. Right?
We don't know where he is staying. That's it.
How will we find him?
'I must do something.'
'I don't want these. I didn't do a favour.'
[flute playing]
Hail Sai Ram.
Do you like spending time in Shirdi?
Sai,
I was fighting my past,
trying to escape
my loneliness,
and wandering in the search
of my destination.
You showed me the way.
You told me my destination was
in Shirdi.
I didn't do anything.
I merely asked you to stay back and get some rest here.
Sometimes, the answers to our questions are around us.
However, one needs a calm mind to be able to see them.
By staying here
and taking a break from the hustle of your life,
you got the answer to your questions, Mr Ramcharan.
Yes, Sai.
[mellow music playing]
What is this, Sai?
At the right time, your heart will tell you what it is
and what you should do with it.
[devotional song playing]
There's an old saying.
'Sometimes, the wrong train can lead you to the right station.'
This means
that sometimes, we get lost in life and reach our destination.
Getting lost is essential
as it allows us to test our beliefs and thoughts.
Sometimes, getting lost
gives us the chance to explore and understand ourselves.
Nandini's thoughts are also leading her somewhere.
Many beliefs are sprouting in her heart.
The reason behind that is Nandini's past.
The bad experiences of her life
have habituated Nandini to distrust everyone
and draw conclusions about them.
But are these conclusions correct?
Only Sai knows that. However, there's one thing.
Despite what Nandini thinks,
Sai is always by her side.
It doesn't matter if we're lost in life.
Sai's name is enough
to help us return to the right track.
When the roads are foggy,
trust is the lamp
that lights up with Sai's name.
Hail Sai Ram.
