My daughter Lajwa is going
to be engaged.

1:15:05
ChiId marriage!
1:15:10
Can you not see our situation?
We bareIy manage to fiII our stomachs.

1:15:14
Who is going to pay their schooI fees?
1:15:17
Gitaji doesn't run the schooI for money.
1:15:20
Teaching is her passion... her Iife!
1:15:25
If we speak with her
1:15:27
we can assure you that
she wiII heIp you.

1:15:30
The viIIage foIks don't
want to see us around.

1:15:33
Just Iisten to me...
1:15:35
Let it be saheb.
1:15:38
Education is not in their destiny.
1:15:43
Not in my chiIdren's destiny.
1:15:51
What have you decided Vishnoji?
1:15:52
Studies are not going to
fiII an empty stomach!

1:15:54
Since pottery wiII be
their IiveIihood

1:15:56
then why waste time studying?
1:15:59
Have you made these?
They are beautifuI.

1:16:02
TeII me. How much do
you seII this pot for?

1:16:05
Thirty rupees.
- What!

1:16:07
We have a contractor in the city,
who buys it from us.

1:16:09
Sometimes we even get an extra
five-ten rupees.

1:16:11
We won't seII it for Iess than thirty!
1:16:14
The price of this pot in the city
is 100 rupees or more.

1:16:17
Maybe if you peopIe were educated
you wouIdn't be fooIed Iike this.

1:16:22
I know that this art has been
passed down through generations.

1:16:25
I agree that your kids shouId
carry on this tradition.

1:16:29
But in this day and age, it is
cruciaI for them to be educated.

1:16:31
Is it not Nivaaranji?
- AbsoIuteIy.

1:16:33
Because education wiII heIp them take
this art to its deserving end...

1:16:38
... and earn appropriate prices.
1:16:40
You are seIIing us a dream!
Don't show us these dreams.

1:16:58
Namaste Sarpanchji.
