Dear little lambs
Pray once before a war Two times before going to sea
Before marriage 3 times Johny'chaya, you must not vent out
your frustration of being single... ...by putting a spoke
in someone else's marriage If you can't control your needs
then get married Instead of pining away
with desires, better get married That was a dialog
I wrote in college Do you know the applause
I got for this? It was resounding! That's how his
head was injured Do you know people who were
married wished to be fr
ee? And all who were unmarried
wanted to get married? A secret desire Did you read the script? Isn't that why I am speaking
so eloquently about marriage? I really don't know But do cameramen
usually reads scripts? Those in our TV channels
usually don't Our feature films
DOPs also don't Usually script writing
is over on the day of release Sometimes even after release Frankly, this is the first time
in 15 years I am getting to read... ...the complete screenplay
before the shoot - Hats off to him f
or that!
- What is your opinion? A cocktail of nostalgia
in new generation Cinema is like married life If it's not edited well
The story line will change - Okay, let's stop talking and jog
- Isn't it enough? Let's plan the ambulance
sequence here Okay, it will be good Jameela
Isn't that your name? So? What do you want? Nothing in particular Your father owns
a beedi factory There are 120 workers there
I am the secretary of their union Abdul Khader is my name Great! I've heard you are a football p
layer
as well as a baddie of this town Listen! Beedi workers are planning a strike We will make you
shut down your factory Why tell me all this?
Go tell my father I have a reason
for telling you What reason? I love you deeply Very happy What else is happening here? - If you don't marry me
- What will you do? I will kill myself If you think I will say such things
you can think again Jameela, I will break your bones Jamela, don't ruin my life
I love you very deeply I love your clothes
I love every
inch of you I love these banks
of the river where you walk These love declarations
are habit with you, right? No Jameela I have not talked to
another girl or looked at her Neither will I talk to another
in future or even look at her Jameela, you are
the eyes I see with And? I am meant for you
and you are meant for me Very good! Look here...? I am going for a bath
Must I wear a shirt for that also? You never listen to me Have I ever
not listened to you? You must turn gentleman Always wear good c
lothes
when going out Be dignified in behavior Never speak to old useless friends
if you meet them on your way Haven't I listened
to all your requests? Tell me Every woman gets married to a man
to turn him into a better person, right? To guide him along
the right path And create hassles
for him mentally and physically These are the duties of a woman
Beautiful 'woman' philosophy Hey! Is it the problem of cooks? Did I graduate to be
just a housewife? My little pearl, you don't have to
go into the
kitchen any more I will take care
of everything - Enough?
- Sure You say this everyday Just for one more day, today
my queen please go into the kitchen Tomorrow this slave of yours Oh be quiet! What do you want now? Poovanpazham
(a kind of banana) What? Poovanpazham
Just 2 Oh poovanpazham! Craving for poovenpazham, eh? It's available in the shop
on banks of the river If not, you get in the small bazaar
on the other side of the river I will bring you
a whole bunch I want only 2 Jameela's first re
quest
after our marriage Any other woman
would have demanded... ...such atrocious
things from their husband They always ask for
the least valuable things Whiskers of a lioness
who has just delivered cubs If you don't get it, they sulk Just two whiskers from
a big cat was all I asked That's all you care she says
and burst out crying What will the poor
husband do? There is another type They want a flake of snow
from the tip of the Everest If you don't get it
their eyes will fill with tears... ...a
nd with a quivering voice
they will say, you may as well kill me What will that
poor husband do? Did Jameela bibi ask you
to bring something like this? Just 2 poovanpazham I must go and bring her
A whole bunch of those bananas Don't loaf around Come back quickly Don't make it till twilight I am scared to be here alone Don't forget all
that I told you Of course not! Hey! Don't murder me
I am not a thief This is the dumb and simpleton
one and only Abdul Khader How did you get inside? When this you
ng man comes
all doors will open by themselves Hearts will- Stop it and tell me
how you got in Through the kitchen You pushed open
the lock with a stick, right? If thieves saw you
they'd use the same trick to get in How will we continue
to live here peacefully? Bloody fool!
The door was not locked Oh you want me
to believe that?! Oh Lord! When women commit a mistake
can anyone make them admit it? Where is the banana? Poovanpazham was
not available anywhere I am going to bed You can eat the orang
es
and then sleep That banana is not
available anywhere I swam across
the flooded river to bring it Don't lie, I don't like oranges
You can eat it yourself Jameela, get up and come here Jameela come here I feel sleepy I brought this with
great difficulty What if I had
drowned in that river? - I asked for poovenpazham
- It's not available in this entire town I will bring some saplings
of povenpazham tomorrow Sure, I will wait till it bears fruit
ripen and then eat them Have these oranges for now
It's full of vitamins I don't want them You must eat them If I don't, will you beat me
into eating them? - Get up
- I don't feel like - You don't feel like, eh?
- Correct! I will chop you! Are you going to kill me? Yes! I will chop you into bits
and make biriyani(meat dish) out of them Eat them! You dare disobey
your husband? Eat it! Come on eat! Not enough!
More! Do you see this?
I will finish you off! Eat! Remove the seeds
and eat slowly Who am I, tell me? I don't know Do see this? I asked you
who I am to you? My husband Will you try to reform me?
Come on tell me quickly I won't try to reform you What are you eating? Oranges Do you see this knife? Say it! You are eating
poovanpazham Poovanpazham - What are you eating?
- Poovanpazham - What?
- Poovanpazham - What?
- Poovanpazham 'Cut it!' This is the time to focus
on your career Even in countries like Iran
women delay marriage They focus more
on education and career They also come under criticism They consider jobless women
more dange
rous than missiles I've also heard eligible
bachelors are harmful to society Isn't marriage a way
to harness such men Women those days may have wanted
a husband who looked after her needs But today she needs
one who inspires her If you want only inspiration
I have plenty with me Don't tease For an ordinary girl like me
Marriage is a public proof... ...that a girl has become
an inseparable part in a man's life Won't it be great
to live together like that?
