00:00Ramesh and Asha lived in a village called Mohanpur.
00:04They have an unmarried son, whose name is Shankar.
00:09Ramesh usually does small jobs and nurture his family.
00:13His son Shankar is a jobless person and stays home all day.
00:19He also roams around the village with his friends and doesn't care about his future
00:24at all.
00:26However, he is a very religious person.
00:32Asha, what should I tell to these villagers who keep asking me about Shankar's whereabouts?
00:39They always highlight the fact that Shankar keeps roaming around the village with his
00:43friends and has no other job to do.
00:47Oh darling, why are you saying all this?
00:51He will mend his way with time.
00:53If he has committed any mistakes, he will suffer for them.
00:57Mom, mom, do you know that I treated my friends with food today?
01:04But a person who can't even buy a candy, how can he afford to feed all of his friends?
01:09Tell me the truth Shankar, otherwise I will be very angry.
01:14Please stop it dad, can't we even eat food now?
01:18If you keep scolding me like this, I will get digestion issues.
01:23Asha, tell him if he utters another word, I will kick him out of this house.
01:29Tell us Shankar, from where did you get all this money?
01:33Did you steal it from somewhere?
01:36Oh dear son, tell us the truth quickly, otherwise I will also have to bear the consequences
01:42besides you.
01:43Your dad is very angry.
01:46Oh God, there was a wedding going on in the village nearby.
01:50We all went there and ate the food.
01:53We did not spend a penny on it.
01:55And you are scolding me so much for all this?
01:59Asha gets surprised after hearing all this from Shankar.
02:03Ramesh gets annoyed and goes away from there.
02:06When Shankar is about to leave from that place, Asha gets sad and tries to have a word with him.
02:14Oh Ramesh, why do you keep doing such cheap things and get scolded from your father?
02:21Why don't you try to do something purposeful in life?
02:24Don't get us wrong son, everyone in the village is asking us about you.
02:29We are unable to answer all these questions.
02:33Okay mom, me and my friend are going to meet a famous Swamiji tomorrow.
02:38He will solve all my problems.
02:41Shankar consoles his mother and goes to meet his friend Kishore.
02:46Kishore was sleeping at that time.
02:49Shankar wakes him up savagely and tells him to accompany him to Swamiji's place.
02:56Hey buddy, what happened?
02:59Why did you bring me here in so hurry?
03:02Oh Kishore, hard luck.
03:04The woman I loved is getting married to someone else.
03:08I want to protect my love.
03:10I want to marry my love Rajni.
03:14Oh man, there is no point thinking about all this now.
03:17Although you like her, but she doesn't like you.
03:20If you want her to like you, you have to do something before she goes away forever.
03:25You still have one week's time left.
03:30Tomorrow I will be going to the famous Swamiji and tell him all these problems.
03:34I will seek a solution from him.
03:37The next day, Shankar goes to meet Swamiji.
03:41Swamiji sees Shankar's hands and pretends to predict his future with optimism.
03:48So son, you want to get a job and get married.
03:53Well, I see there is only one solution to attain this.
04:00What is the solution, Swamiji?
04:01I have been searching for this solution since very long.
04:06You must catch a lizard, cut her tail and hang it on the tree near the pond of the village.
04:14This is the only way for you to achieve your dreams.
04:19What is the best time to do this, Swamiji?
04:23This should be done tomorrow.
04:26Okay Swamiji.
04:28As directed by Swamiji, he goes searching for the lizard in his entire house.
04:34He finds one in one of the corner of the house.
04:37He takes the lizard out to the tree which is beside the pond in the village.
04:43Meanwhile, the lizard starts having conversation with Shankar.
04:47Oh, hello Shankar.
04:49You seem a very wise person.
04:51Why are you taking me like this?
04:53Do you want to hang me at the tree?
04:56I have been told that if I cut your tail and hang it at the tree, all my wishes will come true.
05:03That's why I am taking you there.
05:06hahahahahaha
05:08You fool.
05:09Why don't you tell me who gave you this advice by the way?
05:14The Swamiji.
05:16Do you also know the famous Swamiji?
05:20I am unable to control my laughter.
05:23Do you want to destroy my tail just because that Swamiji told you to do so?
05:29He is a big cheat.
05:31He keeps doing such dramas, mislead the people, and steal things from them in the night.
05:39Whatever you say, I will not listen to you.
05:42My parents keep scolding me all day, and the girl who I love is getting married to someone
05:48else.
05:49My condition is very poor.
05:52You are saying all this to save yourself.
05:55But I will not get trapped.
05:57I will surely cut your tail.
06:01Oh!
06:02Poor Shankar.
06:03You are so innocent.
06:04I know how much your parents love you.
06:07It is too bad that your father keeps scolding you.
06:10But he shares his sorrow with your mother about the same.
06:13I have heard all these conversations.
06:16Your father loves you very much.
06:20Alright.
06:21But what about the girl I love, who doesn't love me at all?
06:26Oh!
06:27Relax.
06:28Rajni also loves you.
06:30Haven't you noticed how she laughs at your silly jokes?
06:34She keeps thinking about all your pranks and jokes all day.
06:38You know what?
06:39If you get a job, you will definitely get that girl.
06:44But I can't find any job.
06:46That's why I am taking you near the lake to cut your tail and hang it there.
06:53Alright.
06:54So he told you that if you hang my tail on the tree,
06:58you will get rich and get whatever you want.
07:01If this was true, he could have also got the money, isn't it?
07:05This is all planned by Swamiji to cheat you.
07:09You make sense.
07:10How come I did not think about this before?
07:13Now tell me, do you have any solution to my problems?
07:18Oh!
07:19You must do something that solves all your problems.
07:22You should simply go to that cunning Swami and start yelling in front of everybody that he is a thief.
07:29Then just wait and watch what happens.
07:34How can I say this in front of everybody?
07:39It's already too late.
07:40Better you go now and do whatever I said.
07:43Otherwise, the Swami will cheat many more people
07:46and will steal everything from the poor people.
07:50Alright, as you say.
07:52Shankar likes whatever the lizard was saying.
07:55Now he goes back to Swamiji's place and starts shouting,
07:59Thief! Thief! Thief!
08:02Irrespective of what Swami is saying to him,
08:05the Swami accepts the allegations and runs away from the village.
08:11Now the villagers are appreciating Shankar,
08:14the way he made Swamiji to run away from the village.
08:17Shankar is feeling very happy.
08:20His parents are also very proud of him.
08:23Also, the love of his life, Rajni, is smiling at him.
08:28Everyone in the village is very impressed with Shankar.
08:34Shankar greets the lizard wholeheartedly.
08:39So Shankar, did you see how these people were committing so many mistakes due to their superstition?
08:46If you are confident enough, nobody can stop you from being successful.
08:51Stay blessed! Stay happy!
08:54Shankar greets the lizard wholeheartedly.
08:57He is now very happy with his parents.
09:00He also gets a job in the village itself
09:03and starts looking after his parents.
09:06Those words from the lizard gave his life a whole new direction.
