Birbal's Khichdi

[Music]
Hahhh
Very cold...
Birbal, I think this year the climate is very very cold.
Yes, your majesty!
Compared to last year this year climate is extremely cold.
Hmm...
It is so cold,
that our people won't even come out of their houses. Am I right?
No, your majesty!
A sincere worker will perform his job,
irrespective of the climate, whether it is hot,cold or rainy.
What are you blabbering Birbal?
Can any one come out and work in this cold?
How can this rain cold bother me?
We have to run our lives.
If we want to have food tonight, then I have to work now.
We need money to live. Am I right?
That's right. To run our life, we need money.
For that we can't come out and torture ourselves in the cold.
People respect us only if you have money.
If we want to earn money in the right way,
then we should work hard. No other way.
No Birbal,
I'm unable to believe this.
Are there people who work like this for the sake of money?
Yes, your majesty.
They surely are.
I can't accept it Birbal.
Can you show a person to me who works like this?
If you succeed in this task,
I will give that person immense wealth and honour him.
It is possible.
I will bring such a worker and make him stand before you, your majesty.
My dear Birbal, Don't attempt it if you can't do it.
You might loose it.
No, your majesty! I have hopes.
Mmm.... Huh... Huh... Huh...
Let's see whether you can do it.
Mm... He is the right person.
Your majesty!
He is the sincere worker whom I've mentioned before.
You may test him, if you wish
Mm-Hmm
What's your name?
Govindhan huzoor.
Govindh, here is your task.
Tonight you will have to stand in the cold waters of River Yamuna.
If you are able to do it then your hands would be full of gold coins.
What do you say?
Mmm...
Your majesty! I will stand.
Hey guards...
Assalamalaikum huzoor!
It is your duty to check...
whether he is standing in the cold waters of River Yamuna throughout the night.
Your order huzoor!
Majesty!
As per your order, I stood in the cold waters of Yamuna for the whole night.
Hey, gaurd!
Is he speaking the truth to me?
Yes huzoor! That's true.
Yesterday whole night, he was standing in the cold waters of Yamuna
Haha, what a surprise!
Tell me Govindh, what's the secret behind you,
standing in this cold water throughout that night?
That is,
while standing in the cold waters of Yamuna.
I was admiring the lamps on your palace,
and I did not feel the chillness at all.
Oh! Is it so?
You are not worthy enough to get those gold coins.
You can go now.
Your majesty!
This is so unfair...
My order was, that you stand in the cold waters of the river Yamuna throughout that night.
But you...
you got the warmth from the lamps of my palace.
So you've lost and you don't deserve any prizes.
You can leave.
What happened Govindan? You look sad.
Are you not rewarded by the king.
Yes Birbal. The king did not reward me and has sent me away.
Why, why didn't he reward you?
He says that I got warmth from the palace lamps...
and was not worthy of the reward.
So he sent me away, and I am very sad about it.
This is unfair.
Where are the castle lamps?
And where is the River?
How can the heat from castle lamps reach the river?
Even I am confused Birbal.
Don't worry.
I will see to it tomorrow.
Your reward will reach your home.
Don't worry Govindhan.
Thank you Birbal. Thanks a lot.
Let me leave.
What's happening?
Everybody has assembled here.
But Birbal is missing.
Why isn't he turned up yet. Hmm.
Guards!
Assalaamalaikum huzoor!
Mmm. Now you go and bring Birbal to me
Your order huzoor.
Your majesty!
Birbal is cooking kichidi at his residence.
He told that he will come only after eating kichidi.
Alright, let him come
The whole Day is gone.
What is Birbal up to?
I will go and check in person.
Birbal, what is this?
What are you trying to do this time?
Your majesty!
I am cooking kichidi, your majesty.
Mm hmm...
The pot is high up here,
and the fire is down beneath.
Is this the way you cook kichidi Birbal?
How will the contents in the pot get heated up Birbal?
Why, your majesty!
When the castle lamps can provide heat to Govindhan who was standing in the river,
then why not this fire heat the pot, your majesty?
I understand Birbal.
I have understood what you are trying to convey.
Yes, I have done a mistake
Please forgive me.
Right now Birbal ,you yourself take the reward of Govindh and give it to him
Thank you majesty. Thanks a lot
Govinda...Govinda...
Come in Birbal..., come in...
Govindha take this.
This is your reward.
Thank you Birbal.
Thanks, a lot.
Do your duty and you will be rewarded.
You're the best example for this.
Hereafter, there will be no sorrows in your life.
Leaving so soon.
Don't worry. I'll be back again
