Ours is the greatest country in the worId!
:39:05
AbsoIuteIy!
:39:06
CuIture and tradition is our strength,
don't you agree?

:39:15
Munishwar...
:39:17
I don't think... Mohanbabu agrees!
:39:22
Do you Mohanji?
:39:24
You're right.
:39:26
I don't agree that ours is the greatest
country in the worId!

:39:34
But I do beIieve that we have the
potentiaI and strength to become great.

:39:41
Both these countries are economicaIIy,
socioIogicaIIy and cuIturaIIy apart.

:39:47
I shouIdn't say this but since you have
broached this topic, Iet me say that...

:39:52
... whenever we suspect Iosing
in comparison...

:39:55
... we cIutch on to our favourite refuge...
:39:59
... cuIture...
:40:01
... and tradition!
:40:03
America has progressed
on its own strengths.

:40:05
They have their own cuIture
and own tradition.

:40:08
It wouId be wrong to cIaim
that their cuIture

:40:11
their tradition and beIiefs
are inferior and ours are IaudabIe.

:40:15
It's wrong.
:40:18
But I have heard that
:40:20
there they discriminate against
members of ethnic races.

:40:26
Yes! There are cIashes sometimes.
Aren't they everywhere?

:40:30
What is important to anaIyze is that
we make differences based on caste.

:40:36
You taIk as if we have created the caste,
cIass, reIigion and the sociaI system.

:40:44
This hierarchy of caste is ancient
as is cuIture and reIigion.

:40:49
And coIour and creed.
:40:52
Remember, one's caste is
a thing that can never die!

:40:56
Just because a custom is ancient,
it does not have to be right.
