00:00Long time ago, there was a farmer named Mohit in a village named Rampur.
00:06He worked day and night by cultivating his land.
00:09He lived with his wife Bhavna.
00:12Mohit had a son named Lokesh.
00:14Lokesh was very lazy.
00:16He wanted to earn money without working hard,
00:19so he would look for shortcuts.
00:21Then one fine day,
00:23Bhavna, where is your son Lokesh?
00:26Where did he go?
00:27In the morning, I saw him when I went to the farm.
00:30He haven't reached home yet.
00:32Where is he roaming?
00:34He will come.
00:35What do you want him to do?
00:36Follow you all day?
00:37If the boy stays at home, what will he learn?
00:40If he roams here and there, he will have the knowledge of world.
00:43If he keep on roaming,
00:44he will not be able to bear the burden of knowledge of the world.
00:47Will go to the farm.
00:49If he keep on roaming,
00:50he will not be able to bear the burden of knowledge of the world.
00:53Will go crazy.
00:54It has happened because of your grace.
00:56When will you and him regain consciousness?
00:58No matter what he does, you never like it.
01:00You always keep cursing him.
01:02One day he will do something,
01:04and then you will say,
01:05how great my son has become.
01:08I see how he is becoming great.
01:10His friend Raju became a government employee.
01:12He didn't even study.
01:14He is not even able to work along with farming.
01:17How he will get his place in the future?
01:19Tell me now.
01:20Meanwhile, Lokesh was returning from the city.
01:22On the way, he met Sadhu.
01:24He looked at Lokesh.
01:26Good Rajyog is visible in your face.
01:29I can see all your future.
01:31Do I tell you?
01:32If you allow me.
01:34Do I have Rajyog?
01:36Then I will become king or something.
01:38The other day village saint told me
01:40that I would become great businessman.
01:43Rajyog doesn't mean that you will become a king.
01:46Means you will become richer than other people of the village.
01:49If you want to hear it, tell me.
01:51If you will give me a rupee,
01:53I will tell you about the future.
01:55I have only one rupee.
01:57If I give it, I will have to ask mom again.
02:00You are going to earn thousand of rupees.
02:03Your future is going to change with this one rupee.
02:06I have no doubt in my astrology.
02:08Goddess will speak about your future.
02:10Trust me.
02:11He gives one rupee and takes advice from the sage
02:14and reaches home.
02:16Where were you since morning?
02:18Have you seen your father?
02:19He keeps asking me over and over again.
02:22Where did you go?
02:23What will I answer him?
02:25Go now meet him.
02:27I had gone to visit my friend in the city.
02:30I don't want to live in this village.
02:32This cow dung, this farming, this soil.
02:35I can't stay here.
02:36Please understand me.
02:37If you want to stay in town,
02:39you will have to do a job there.
02:41Who will give you the job?
02:42Do you even know how to work?
02:44Why do I have to do the job?
02:46Just now a monk saw my face
02:48and said that I will be a good businessman.
02:50Ask my father for some money and give it to me.
02:53I will do business and earn more.
02:55More than what we are getting from farming now.
02:58Please do something.
02:59And ask papa, mummy please.
03:01Your father is already angry with you.
03:04If we ask him for money,
03:05he will throw you and me both out of the house.
03:08Tell me one thing.
03:09How much money do you need for your business?
03:12500 rupees is enough.
03:14I will take care of everything else.
03:16Trust me mom.
03:17Okay, okay.
03:18My savings is more than 500.
03:20I will give that money to you.
03:22But you do business with care.
03:24Now I understand.
03:25What the sadhu said was true.
03:27I didn't expect that
03:28I would not get money for the business so soon.
03:31I will leave town tomorrow.
03:33That's fine for me.
03:34Now I am going to sleep.
03:35Lokesh took 500 rupees from his mother
03:37and left for the city next morning.
03:40After walking some distance,
03:42there came a village.
03:44A long way has come.
03:46Now I am tired.
03:47So I will stay at nearby inn
03:49and get up early in the morning
03:51and leave for the city.
03:52It looks like a Sarai.
03:54Thinking that,
03:55Lokesh goes to that inn.
03:57What is your name?
03:59Why you want to be here?
04:01Sir, please tell me your details.
04:03My name is Lokesh.
04:04I am from Rampur.
04:06I came here for business.
04:08Okay.
04:09You take the opposite room.
04:11You should vacate the room early in the morning.
04:13Is it okay?
04:14I will stay tonight only.
04:15When he went into the room
04:17and was resting,
04:18he heard the sound of two people fighting.
04:21The noise was coming
04:22from the adjoining room.
04:24He decided to go and see.
04:27I am not giving it.
04:28Why should I?
04:29And this rate is not enough for me.
04:31You have to pay as per the promise.
04:33I have arranged all the money for the deal.
04:35Why are you changing now?
04:36This is not right.
04:37Me and you
04:38don't just talk about fair and unfair.
04:40Whatever I steal,
04:41I sell you.
04:42This time,
04:43someone else is giving me more money.
04:45So, I am giving it.
04:46Earning money is important to me.
04:48Take it to you want.
04:49Otherwise,
04:50I will take it to him in the morning.
04:52I can't do business with you.
04:54Sell it whoever you like.
04:55From now onwards,
04:56don't meet me.
04:57Then the second person leaves from there.
04:59After hearing the conversation there,
05:01Lokesh gets an idea.
05:03They were talking about the stolen item.
05:05This means
05:06I can buy it for much less than the original price.
05:08I think he left without a deal.
05:11I want to know the real thing.
05:13I will go up and ask.
05:14Thinking in his mind,
05:16Lokesh goes to that man there.
05:18Looks like
05:19some fight was going on.
05:21Who was he?
05:22Why was he so angry?
05:24What happened?
05:25I found a diamond.
05:27It's worth a lot.
05:28It will be two thousand.
05:30But he wanted to take that diamond for four hundred rupees.
05:33Giving me five hundred.
05:35Whoever gives more,
05:36I will give it.
05:37He didn't like it
05:38and went away in anger.
05:40Oh!
05:41Then show me that diamond.
05:42If I like it,
05:43I will give you five hundred as you ask.
05:45You will get the money immediately
05:47and at a time,
05:48think about it.
05:49Tell me now,
05:50where is that diamond?
05:52Please tell me.
05:54Look here.
05:55How precious is that diamond?
05:56How will I give it for four hundred to him?
05:59Tell me.
06:00Wow!
06:01It looks like a precious diamond.
06:02If I buy it,
06:03then it will give me fifteen hundred profit
06:05by investing five hundred rupees.
06:07So much profit for the first time is fine.
06:10What the sage had said to me,
06:12I will take it immediately without delay.
06:15I should not delay anymore.
06:17Why are you thinking for so long?
06:19Do you have the intent to take it or not?
06:22If not,
06:23tell me please.
06:24Oh!
06:25Just wait.
06:26I wanted to look once before buying.
06:27Why are you in such a hurry?
06:29I liked it.
06:30Here is five hundred rupees.
06:31Now this belongs to me.
06:32He takes it
06:33and reaches his village very happily.
06:35He goes to the money lender.
06:38Look, Sadhji.
06:39I have a very precious diamond.
06:41Look at it
06:42and tell me how much it cost.
06:44Let me know please.
06:45You are saying it very valuable.
06:47Then why do you have it?
06:49Show me what it is.
06:51Give it to me.
06:52Here it is.
06:53So please tell me the cost of it.
06:55If you like it,
06:56I will give it to you
06:57even though the money is less or high.
06:59Let's look at this first.
07:01What is this?
07:02Not even a rupee it cost.
07:04You bring a piece of glass
07:06and say it's a diamond.
07:07Do you want to deceive me?
07:09Didn't you find it anybody else?
07:11I am not cheating.
07:12I bought this from town for five hundred rupees
07:15and he said it would worth two thousand rupees.
07:18You have been thoroughly fooled by someone.
07:20Anyone who sees it
07:22will say that it is a piece of glass.
07:24You don't know.
07:25Somebody made you a fool.
07:27Does your father know that you bought it, idiot?
07:30No, no.
07:31My father doesn't know about this.
07:32Please forget about this matter.
07:34Please.
07:35I am leaving.
07:36Lokesh reaches home thinking
07:38that he has been cheated.
07:39What will he do now?
07:41He tells everything to his mother.
07:43Oh my god!
07:45How did you believe that unknown person?
07:47He came to know that you have money
07:49so he did this entire drama.
07:51It took me so many days to save five hundred rupees.
07:54Money will come from the sale of grains next week.
07:57Now I will have to ask your father to give you money.
08:00Mom, please don't tell dad.
08:02He will not even give the money that he want.
08:05After a week passed, the grain is sold out.
08:08Lokesh knew that the money has arrived.
08:10Mom, the money for food grains has arrived.
08:13You do something.
08:14Ask father for money.
08:16I will do business with caution this time.
08:18He will listen to you.
08:20If I ask, he will not give it to me.
08:22Don't think he doesn't care for you or he doesn't like you.
08:25His concern is that you don't know the value of money and time.
08:29See, here he is.
08:31While they were talking, Mohit comes there.
08:34Both of you, mother and son were talking about some secret
08:38but stopped when I arrived.
08:40There is no secret.
08:41Lokesh wants to do some business.
08:43He is asking for money.
08:45I said I will ask you to give it.
08:47In the meantime, you came.
08:49Business? What kind of business will he do?
08:51He doesn't even know how to sell the grain we grow.
08:54What else can he do in business?
08:56Why are you asking on his behalf?
08:58Let him ask.
08:59Tell him directly.
09:00Yes, papa.
09:01I want to do business.
09:03I need some money for that.
09:04I will show it to you.
09:06I have discussed everything with my friend who is in town.
09:09I am very much sure about this plan.
09:11Trust me, dad.
09:12Please give it to me.
09:13What kind of business you want to do?
09:15Do you have experience with that?
09:17As I know, you have never done anything like this before.
09:20You will not get any profit from the business without experience.
09:23If I start working, the experience will come automatically.
09:26But my friend has a lot of experience in this business.
09:29Somehow we have to adjust the money.
09:31He will handle everything.
09:33It means you are completely dependent on your friend.
09:35Okay, I will give you the money.
09:37But I have one condition.
09:39If you agree, I don't mind giving you the money.
09:41Tell me.
09:42If you agree on this, please tell me.
09:44It seems that you don't want to give me money on any condition.
09:48Well, tell me what the condition is.
09:50If I like it, I will do it.
09:52Otherwise, I would not agree on that.
09:54Okay, listen.
09:56Workers come to our farm to work.
09:58They are given 5 rupees at the end of the day.
10:01You have to do the same and bring it to me every day.
10:04Then I will give you the money which you have asked for.
10:07Okay.
10:08But be ready to give money to my business.
10:10Father, earning 5 rupees is not a big deal.
10:14Hmm, looks easy.
10:16Well, why delay and start tomorrow?
10:18I will give you money immediately.
10:20So, the next day Lokesh leaves to earn 5 rupees
10:23as per the condition given by his father.
10:27But is it necessary that I work so hard for 5 rupees?
10:31I will ask Saidji's son.
10:335 rupees is not a big deal for him.
10:36Thinking this, Lokesh goes to Shiv.
10:41Hey Shiv, I want 5 rupees.
10:43If you have, give it to me.
10:45My father said that he would give it to me in 2 days.
10:48When they give, I will come and give it back to you.
10:51Keep that 5 rupees aside.
10:53You brought a piece of glass and said it was a diamond.
10:56You wanted to sell to my father.
10:58On top of that, you said that you have brought in 500 rupees.
11:01Did you want to cheat my father?
11:03No, no, no. Believe me.
11:04I bought that piece of glass for 500.
11:07When two unknown people found out that I had money,
11:10they fooled me totally.
11:12You said you gave 500 and bought it.
11:14Actually, who gave you the money?
11:16My mother gave me 500 rupees
11:18that I will do business in the city with that money.
11:20Why are you asking for all this?
11:22You gave me 5 rupees and I will return you in 2 days.
11:25Go and ask your mother who gave you 500 rupees.
11:28Don't come near me.
11:30If dad finds out that I am talking to you,
11:32he will throw me outside of the house.
11:34I can't do it. Try somewhere else.
11:36He didn't get any money from his friend.
11:38He reaches home with a sad heart as he has no money.
11:42Tells his mother about what happened.
11:44Why are you sad?
11:45I will give you that 5 rupees.
11:47Go and give it to your father.
11:49Your father doesn't know who gave it to you.
11:51Take this 5 rupees.
11:52I only have this last 5 bucks.
11:54Your father didn't give me a single penny.
11:57That afternoon, he took 5 rupees and gave it to his father.
12:03Oh, that means earn 5 rupees.
12:05Went in the morning and bought it back after earning 5 rupees by noon.
12:10Well, take this 5 rupees and throw it in the well.
12:13Are you asking me to throw 5 rupees in the well?
12:16Okay, as you like father. I will do.
12:19Lokesh takes that and throws it into the well.
12:23Okay, I have come after earning 5 rupees.
12:26Like you said, when are you paying me for my business? Tell me.
12:30Well, do one thing.
12:31Earn another 5 rupees again and tomorrow come.
12:34Then we will see. Understand?
12:36What?
12:37You said you will give it if I earn 5 rupees.
12:40Now you are changing your words.
12:42I said earn 5 rupees a day until you are told to stop.
12:46Got my point?
12:47Next day, Lokesh goes to his uncle and asks for 5 rupees.
12:51Hey nephew, here are 10 rupees. Take it and go.
12:55But why are you asking me when you have father?
12:58Doesn't your father want to give?
13:00So, Lokesh takes 10 rupees and leaves for home.
13:03It is still noon.
13:05If I go, he will be suspicious.
13:07I will wait till evening and then I will go.
13:10Then he will feel that I have earned money by some work.
13:13In the evening, Lokesh brings 10 rupees and gives it to his father.
13:19Wow! Well, earn 10 rupees by evening.
13:22But take this too and throw it in that well.
13:25Go tomorrow also and earn 5 rupees and get it.
13:28He did what his father said.
13:30He took 10 rupees and threw it in the well again.
13:35Now, he is thinking how to earn 5 rupees the next day.
13:40Why did my father put such a condition to give me the money I ask him for my business?
13:45I ask for money from everyone I know.
13:48Whom should I ask now? Oh my God!
13:51After thinking the whole day, he was standing at one place.
13:57Oh, looks like it's going to rain.
13:59My son is also not there this time.
14:01Help me a little to put the bag inside.
14:04I will give you 2 rupees.
14:06Okay, sir.
14:08He carries all the bags and keeps them inside.
14:11Here is 2 rupees.
14:12You look like a nice guy.
14:14Take this money and enjoy.
14:16Lokesh left from there and went home.
14:20How happy the old man was with such a small help.
14:24And if I help my father, how happy they would be.
14:28Dad, here is 2 rupees.
14:29I managed to earn 2 rupees today.
14:32Well, that you have bought it, so go and throw it in the well.
14:36Even these 2 rupees.
14:37What? I have worked hard to earn it and you are asking to throw it in the well.
14:42I don't understand why are you doing this?
14:44Do you know how many bags I picked up for these 2 bucks?
14:47Dad.
14:48Oh, well then keep these 2 rupees in your pocket.
14:51Now you know there is a difference between bringing and earning.
14:55You earn by hard work.
14:57When asked to put in the well, you got angry.
15:00Similarly, you took your mother's money and lost it.
15:03You don't even regret losing them.
15:05Because they were not your heart and money.
15:08Isn't it?
15:09Now you understand the meaning of hard work.
15:11Did mother tell you that she gave me 500 rupees that day?
15:16Not only that.
15:17I also know the matter of carrying a piece of glass for Sethji.
15:215 rupees given by your mother, I told you to throw it in the well.
15:26You didn't get sad.
15:27You did not feel sad even after throwing the 10 rupees in the well that your uncle had given you.
15:32You got angry when I asked you to throw away 2 rupees of your hard earned money.
15:37This is the price of hard work.
15:39You know the value of whatever work you do.
15:42You should see your future in it.
15:45What the monk said was true.
15:47That you have Rajyog.
15:49But I had to tell you that if you work hard, you would get it.
15:53After that, do business or farming.
15:56Of your choice.
