00:00Once upon a time, there was a village named Rampur, and in that village, there lived three
00:08friends named Sugandh, Arvind and Gopal.
00:11They had been together since childhood.
00:13They used to go to school together and play together.
00:16Hey, after school, let's go to Raju's garden to pick mangoes today.
00:21What?
00:22Raju's garden?
00:23If he sees us, he'll kick us out.
00:25No, no, I am afraid of him.
00:27I am not going to go.
00:29So, how will you get the mangoes if you are afraid of him?
00:33Life must be full of adventures, but we don't have any such things here.
00:38Plucking mangoes from the garden and eating them could be a good adventure.
00:41Yeah bro, if we go quietly, he would not even know.
00:46Isn't it wrong to steal something which is not ours?
00:49Oho, what are you saying?
00:52If you want, you can come with us, otherwise we both will go and bring lot of mangoes from
00:58there.
00:59No, I will come too.
01:01So those three stole mangoes from Raju's garden and sat under a tree and started eating mangoes.
01:07In the meantime, Nitin, who was the neighbor of Gopal, came there while running.
01:13Hey Gopal, your father is struggling with a life and death situation.
01:18What are you doing here?
01:19Come with me, your father wants to see you.
01:22Hearing such words, Gopal ran to his house.
01:25Gopal's mother had passed away when he was very young.
01:29Since then, Gopal's father Ramchand was taking care of him alone.
01:33He never got married.
01:35He had a small business and with that he raised Gopal.
01:38But one day, while doing his work, he slipped and got bedridden forever.
01:43Dad, what happened to you?
01:46Dad?
01:47Oho Gopal, you have come since your mother passed away.
01:51I somehow managed to raise you, but now I don't have much to give.
01:57I am sad to leave you alone like this.
02:00Please forgive me, my son.
02:02If I did something wrong with you, you will forgive me, right?
02:06Don't say that, dad.
02:07If you don't, who will look after me?
02:10Don't be sad.
02:11I couldn't do anything for you.
02:13But now I am giving you this wealth, which I have earned by working hard throughout my
02:19life.
02:20Take it.
02:21Go to the town and earn some money.
02:25If we don't have money, we don't have identity.
02:29So make money and be careful of con man.
02:32Be a good man and live your life.
02:36Said Ramchand and put a little money in his son's hand that he had with him and died.
02:42Gopal's friends, who were deeply saddened by the sudden death of their friend's father,
02:47came to console Gopal.
02:51Don't be sad, Gopal.
02:52You have all of us with you.
02:54Sugandha, I can't be with you like before.
02:57As father said, I have to go to the city and find some work to earn money.
03:02Oh, Gopal, what are you saying?
03:05You have not completed your studies yet.
03:08And now, what will you do to earn money?
03:10I don't know, Arvind.
03:12But if I live here, father's money will drain out in a few days only.
03:15Then there will be nothing for me to eat.
03:18So I have no other option except leaving.
03:21Okay then, as you wish.
03:23But don't forget us after going there.
03:25We will wait for you to come back.
03:27We will miss you a lot.
03:29Whenever I would be, after earning money, I will definitely come back to you.
03:34After talking to his friends and with the amount given by his father, Gopal started
03:39his journey towards the town.
03:42Sugandha, we lost a good friend.
03:46Yes, in all this rush, I forgot to tell you something.
03:49I am also going to a nearby village with my father.
03:53I will continue my studies there and I will help my father in his business.
03:57Yeah, we all are getting separated at the same time.
04:02What a fate!
04:03Will try to come to me whenever possible.
04:06Sure, Arvind.
04:09From that day, all three, Gopal, Sugandha and Arvind got indulged into their works too
04:15much.
04:16After earning an amount of money given by his father, Gopal did a small business and
04:20earned crores within a few years.
04:23As the time passed, he forgot the promise given to his friends.
04:26Later, he got married to a girl named Gauri and started a happy family.
04:32Then after a few years, then one day…
04:34Listen, tomorrow there is a wedding ceremony of my childhood friend.
04:38We both have to go.
04:39Oh yeah!
04:40Let's go.
04:41Where is it going to be?
04:43It is in Rampur village.
04:44There is a banquet hall, they said, especially made for marriages.
04:48What?
04:49Which city did you say?
04:50Didn't you hear?
04:51I said Rampur.
04:52What?
04:53Rampur?
04:54Gauri!
04:55That is the town where I was born.
04:56I have my childhood friends there.
04:58When Gopal heard the name of the town, immediately he remembered his childhood memories.
05:03His friends Sugandha and Arvind also came to his mind.
05:07Gopal told Gauri all about the childhood memories and told her all about the friends also.
05:14When are we going?
05:15Okay, then we sure have to go.
05:18You can also meet your childhood friends there.
05:20Yeah, yeah.
05:21Let's go.
05:22I can't wait.
05:25On the very next day, Gopal reached Rampur with his wife Gauri.
05:29Leaving Gauri with her friend, Gopal said that he was going to meet his friends and
05:33left from there.
05:35First, he went to Arvind's place in that village.
05:38After visiting the place, Gopal saw the house and got an idea that Arvind is very rich and
05:43started waiting outside for Arvind.
05:46Knowing that Gopal has come to see him, Arvind came out of his house.
05:50Hey Gopal, you have changed so much.
05:53I didn't recognize you.
05:54It's been a long time since we met.
05:56So good to see you.
05:57Where had you been?
05:59Oh, what to tell you?
06:01Since the day I left from here, I was very indulged in work, start some small business
06:06and due to God's grace.
06:08I got profit in each of them and I could spare no time for me.
06:13So it took a long to me to come here.
06:15That's the thing.
06:16By the way, how are you?
06:18I have property of crores given by my grandfather and father.
06:22So I am happily living with that.
06:24I don't have any problem here.
06:26Oh, that's great.
06:28Seeing you like this, I am very happy.
06:30Well, where is Sugandh and how is he doing?
06:34He, when you left the village, he also had gone to a neighboring village with his father.
06:40Since then, we never met.
06:41Oh, okay then, let's meet him together.
06:45But I am very happy today, because I met you.
06:50They both were very happy to meet each other.
06:53They spent some time together by remembering their childhood memories.
06:57And after taking lunch, Gopal got ready to leave.
07:00He told Arvind.
07:02Okay, now I must take a leave.
07:05I dropped my wife at her friend's house.
07:08I have to go.
07:09She is getting late.
07:10On the way, I will meet Sugandh too.
07:13Okay?
07:14Oh, really?
07:15Then why did you come alone?
07:16Why did you bring your wife along?
07:18Actually, she had her friend's wedding today.
07:21That's why she didn't come.
07:23But whenever you come to the city, do come to her house.
07:26I will be waiting for you.
07:27Yeah, I will come for sure, Gopal.
07:30If you meet Sugandh, tell him that I was asking about him.
07:34Arvind showed all his wealth and property and provided him with a warm hospitality and
07:39said bye to Gopal.
07:41On the way, Gopal went to Sugandh's house.
07:44Seeing Sugandh's house, Gopal got an idea that he was living in poverty.
07:49Seeing Gopal standing near the house, Sugandh came out and said,
07:53Who?
07:54Gopal?
07:55How long has it been?
07:57How are you?
07:58I am fine.
08:00But how did you become like this?
08:03You had too much wealth in our childhood.
08:05What are you talking about?
08:06As long as my father was there, it was good.
08:09I started facing loss in my business and gradually, all our money were dissolved.
08:13And here's the situation as you are seeing.
08:16Oh, it seems that there had been a big loss.
08:19How did you survive?
08:20Let it be.
08:21Come with me for a while.
08:22I'll explain to you about my business.
08:24Those are profitable.
08:25In this way, you may recover your losses in some extent.
08:28I'll definitely come.
08:30I need a lot.
08:31But don't discuss it now.
08:33Leave it.
08:34Tell me what are you doing now?
08:36Both of them talked for a while about their childhood memories.
08:40After that, Gopal left from Sugandh's house and came back to Gauri.
08:45Hey, Gauri.
08:46What happened?
08:47Did you meet your old friends?
08:49You said that you will come back in a while.
08:51But what took you so long?
08:52You know, here all my friends were asking about you at the wedding.
08:56Oh, I'm sorry.
08:57Forgive me, Gauri.
08:58I met my friends after so long.
09:01That's why we lost in the conversation and I forgot about you.
09:04Okay, never mind.
09:06I understand.
09:07Now, let's go home.
09:09It's about time.
09:10Okay, okay.
09:11Come.
09:12Let's go.
09:13Gopal and Gauri left from there to their home in the city.
09:16After a few days passed, Sugandh came to Gopal's house.
09:20He was amazed to see such a big house.
09:22Oh, Sugandh.
09:23Welcome.
09:24I'm very happy that you come here.
09:27I was waiting for you.
09:29Here, she is my wife, Gauri.
09:31Hello, Gauri.
09:32How are you?
09:33Yes, I'm fine.
09:34It's very hot outside.
09:36Will you have some soda?
09:38You must be thirsty.
09:39Yes, please.
09:40Why not?
09:41Gauri went to kitchen to bring the soda.
09:44Later Sugandh started seeing Gopal's house.
09:48What's the matter?
09:50You have earned well.
09:52Your house is very beautiful.
09:53Ah, it's not so, Sugandh.
09:56Right now, my business is in losses.
10:00Just somehow I'm managing it.
10:01Are you okay?
10:02I heard that you have earned so much wealth.
10:05It's nothing like that, actually.
10:06I have equal debts as that of my assets.
10:09If I sell all my assets, then only I can settle my debts.
10:13But hence, I'll be left with nothing.
10:15Oh, no.
10:16I thought only I was in trouble but didn't expect the same for you.
10:20All these things are regular.
10:22I'll tell you the main reason for calling here.
10:24I brought you here because I've seen your situation with my own eyes.
10:28In childhood, I remember how rich your family used to be.
10:32And it is very natural to have loss in any business.
10:35It can be for any reason.
10:36Let me help you with some money so that you can start your business again.
10:40So that you can help you and your family.
10:42What do you think?
10:44You yourself in a debt, then how will you help me, Gopal?
10:47It is nothing so.
10:49And anyways, I'm not giving you this for free.
10:52Take these 10,000 rupees and start a profitable business.
10:55And pay off my debts whenever you have.
10:57Really?
10:58I'm so lucky that I have a friend like you, Gopal.
11:01I will be indebted to you.
11:03I'll do some business with this money and clear your debt soon.
11:07Meanwhile, Gauri came back with soda.
11:11Come on, have it my friend.
11:12Have it, brother.
11:14I'm going to cook your favorite brinjal curry for lunch.
11:17I know it's your favorite.
11:18So nice of you.
11:20But I'll leave today.
11:22No, that is not fair, brother.
11:24Please spend at least two more days with your childhood friend.
11:27You both just met.
11:29Yeah, Gopal.
11:30Stay here for two days.
11:31Why in so hurry?
11:34Sugandh couldn't say no as they were insisting too much.
11:37He stayed there for two more days.
11:39Spending two days happily,
11:41Sugandh returned home with 10,000 rupees given by Gopal.
11:44Hey Gauri, what is it?
11:46But I did not understand.
11:48Why did you lie to your friend that we are in debt?
11:51Oh that?
11:52Wait for few days.
11:54You'll come to know why I lied to him.
11:56What?
11:57I am not getting whatever you are saying.
11:59Wait, soon you will get it.
12:01After some days, Arvind also visited Gopal's house.
12:05Arvind had more wealth than Gopal.
12:08He was very happy to see Gopal.
12:10After seeing Gopal's house, he said,
12:13What's up Gopala?
12:14You earn so well then why are you living in such a small house?
12:18Huh?
12:18After seeing all this,
12:20I don't think you should live here.
12:22Oh Arvind,
12:23it's true that I have earned crores.
12:26But after coming into this house,
12:29I got very lucky
12:31and earned crores in business.
12:33That's why I am staying here and don't want to leave this house.
12:37Oh so,
12:39you believe in luck?
12:40Well,
12:42but it is not suiting your status.
12:44Yeah, I know it.
12:46There is a 1,000 acre mango grove nearby.
12:48I have built a large mansion in that orchard.
12:51There I have kept all the luxuries and facilities.
12:54I keep going there with my family.
12:56However,
12:57I have also started a new diamond business.
12:59And I am keep going in all that.
13:01Oh, great.
13:03Seeing you like this,
13:04I am very happy Gopal.
13:05You had a hard childhood.
13:07I mean my grandparents had everything.
13:09So I am enjoying it.
13:10But your case was different.
13:12With the little money given by your father,
13:14you met all this.
13:15You have earned it by yourself.
13:17You are really great businessman.
13:19I thought all the wealth given by my father will be enough for me.
13:22But now I will also do some business like you.
13:25Oh, great.
13:26You have planned so well.
13:28Thank you Gopal.
13:30Meanwhile,
13:31Gauri comes there with a glass of juice.
13:34Hey, this is Arvind.
13:36And here is my wife Gauri.
13:37Namaste Bhaiya.
13:38Oh, hello.
13:39How are you?
13:40Have this juice.
13:41I made it for you.
13:42My husband told me that you like it.
13:44Oh,
13:45he remembered that.
13:46Great, great.
13:47So how about you?
13:49Is he bothering you?
13:50If my brother bothers you anyway,
13:52let me know, I will fix him.
13:54No, no.
13:55In fact, he keeps talking about you people.
13:57In childhood,
13:58how you guys used to steal mangoes from the mango grove and...
14:01Oh, that thing.
14:03It means,
14:04it means he told everything to you.
14:06Then,
14:06I will make a move now.
14:08What?
14:08No.
14:09Please sit.
14:10You can go tomorrow.
14:12No,
14:12I had work in town.
14:14I thought of seeing you in the middle,
14:16so I came here.
14:16I saw you and I am really happy now.
14:19I will come and stay for a week,
14:20but next time.
14:21Okay,
14:22as you wish.
14:24Arvind decided not to stay back
14:26and just stay there for a while.
14:28After spending some time together like that,
14:30Arvind left.
14:31After he left,
14:32Gauri came to Gopal and told him,
14:36Listen,
14:36I have a small doubt.
14:38When Sugandh came,
14:39you said you weren't dead
14:41and lowered your status and presented before him.
14:44And when Arvind visited,
14:45you said that you are in a very good position,
14:47more than what you have.
14:49Why did you do that?
14:50What is the reason?
14:52Why did you have to lie to both of them?
14:54Oh, that.
14:55Sugandh came as a guest to our house.
14:58So,
14:59I observed
15:01that he compared his status with me and felt bad.
15:04When he thinks that we are experiencing all the pleasures,
15:08his pain and sorrow may get doubled.
15:10He may feel low and not be able to have fun with me.
15:13In these two days,
15:15that's why I made my small problems as problems big and sad.
15:20He wanted him to think that I was facing problems too.
15:24Therefore,
15:24Sugandh was very comfortable with me those days.
15:27I gave him ten thousand,
15:29hoping as a friend that he should come up.
15:32After all,
15:33they are my friends.
15:35Oh, good.
15:36But for Sugandh,
15:37you lied to make him comfortable.
15:39But why did you lie to Arvind also?
15:41I did not understand that.
15:43Arvind is a millionaire.
15:45There is a possibility of looking down on us.
15:48So, to make our position bigger,
15:50I said that we are having higher standard than him.
15:53And I told him everything.
15:55What you have said is good.
15:57But aren't you lying to your friends?
15:59Isn't that wrong?
16:00I haven't done anything wrong here.
16:03And I have not cheated anyone.
16:04I did not do anything that could harm them.
16:07By using some decency,
16:09I made both of them live happily.
16:11I did it without causing any harm to them.
16:14Telling a lie for the sake of others happily is not that bad.
16:19What you said is true.
16:20But on the other hand,
16:22because of the help you gave by lying to Sugandh,
16:24did not get discouraged by his hardship
16:27and started a new business.
16:28On the other hand,
16:29Arvind thinking that his friend is better than him,
16:32he wants to be better than you.
16:34So that he can reach a higher standard
16:36and start working hard to increase his existing assets.
16:39Really, you are very smart.
16:41And you are a true friend.
16:42What you have planned for your friends is very clever.
16:45I am very proud of you.
16:47Don't praise me that much.
16:49Over the time,
16:50Sugandh started his own business
16:52and it turned out to be very successful.
16:54He finally could settle Gopal's debt also.
16:57Arvind also became more persistent
17:00and expanded his business.
17:02That all happened
17:03because of the lie that Gopal told to his friends.
17:06This is why our elders say
17:08that one good friend can change your life.
17:10All of them were very rich now.
17:12The three friends lived happily ever after.
