I want to know what you are.
1:01:03
A guest?
The Maharaja's mistress?

1:01:07
A prisoner?
1:01:10
I owe gratitude to the Prince.
He saved my life.

1:01:14
I know, but only because I...
1:01:19
Sorry. What right has he
to ask more than me?

1:01:24
Chandra saved me
from more than death.

1:01:27
He doesn't demand.
He asks.

1:01:31
What will you reply?
1:01:35
Sahib Berger...
I am Indian.

1:01:39
You're half European.
1:01:42
Listen to what I'm saying.
1:01:44
For foreigners India
is like an intoxicating drink

1:01:50
but when they leave India
1:01:53
they return to sober reality.
1:01:56
It's like a magic spell
that quickly wears off.

1:02:00
Mistress!
1:02:03
It's getting late.
1:02:05
Go now and be patient.
My thoughts are with you.

1:02:10
I'll pray to the gods for you
every day at sunset.

1:02:32
If someone picked
your most precious bloom

1:02:37
how would you punish them?
1:02:39
Speak plainly.
1:02:41
At night the white sahib
crosses the lake

1:02:44
to see the dancer
from the South.

1:02:48
You're lying.
1:02:50
Your Highness...
1:02:51
may your sword and the wrath
of the gods strike me if I lie.
