Maya dreamed of becoming a dancer, but she had no shoes and no stage.
Every day, she practiced barefoot on the dusty ground.
People laughed, storms came, and still she danced.
Years later, she twirled on the grandest stage, with tears in her eyes.
Her struggles became the steps that led her to success.

00:00Once upon a time, there was a village named Ramgad.
00:03And in that village, there lived a farmer named Jagannath.
00:07He had hundreds of acres of land and workers.
00:10But daily he went to farm with the workers and if needed, used to do agricultural work.
00:16He had a faithful worker named Anil with him.
00:20Anil saw Jagannath working in the fields one day, went to him and told him,
00:26Sir, you are the owner of this land.
00:28You have hundreds of acres of land.
00:30Why are you doing all this course?
00:32I request you to please sit and rest.
00:35We will manage the work, sir.
00:37Don't take it the other way.
00:38You are all there, I know.
00:39But since childhood, I cannot sleep peacefully without seeing this farm, no matter how much you all work.
00:45There will be no peace of mind for me if I do not work with my own hands.
00:48So I request, please don't ask me to sit.
00:51Okay, sir.
00:52But please don't mind.
00:53I want to say something.
00:55I have a piece of advice for you.
00:57No, I am just saying this because I have huge respect for you.
01:02You are growing older day by day.
01:04From now onwards, please take some rest at least.
01:07What man?
01:08In the name of affection you are advising me?
01:11What do you think?
01:12Am I old man now?
01:13Sir, I didn't have that much of courage.
01:15But entrust the responsibilities to your son Satish.
01:18He is your son.
01:19He will take the responsibilities.
01:21Hey, again you are advising me?
01:23It's my mistake that I have given you so much freedom.
01:26Sir, please don't say that.
01:27You know that in my childhood, my father had left me here.
01:31Since that day, I am working for you.
01:33I have grown up here.
01:35With that intimacy, I was advising you.
01:38Nothing beyond that.
01:39I am not clever than you, sir.
01:40Oh, I see.
01:41By saying you are not clever, you are talking wisely with me.
01:45That is the reason I am not able to talk with you.
01:48Okay, okay, fine.
01:49By the way, I like your idea.
01:52Satish will come soon.
01:53Once he completes his education, I will give all my responsibilities to him.
01:58And then I will never come to the farm.
01:59Is that okay?
02:00Sir, please don't say these words.
02:02Who am I to stop you, sir?
02:04Just want to help you in the business, so I say this thing.
02:08Forgive me, please, sir.
02:09Okay, no worries.
02:11Come, let's go home.
02:13Bandi Jagannath's one and only son, Satish, returns after completing his higher education.
02:20He wants to give his responsibilities to Satish and decides to retire himself.
02:25So, one day, he calls Satish and tells him,
02:28Satish, from tomorrow you will go to farm with me.
02:31I will teach you agriculture and farming.
02:32You are the one who has to look after all this course after me.
02:35Dad, as of my wish, you let me go for higher studies.
02:38Now, I think it's impossible for me to do the agriculture business, Dad.
02:42See, Satish, we study to gain knowledge and education.
02:46Education does a great job to make our work even more better.
02:51And this isn't written anywhere that a scholar should not do farming.
02:55Besides that, you know that we are feeding people by farming.
02:59There is nothing to feel shy about our work.
03:01What you said is correct, Dad.
03:03Agriculture and farming are great, but I think they are not profitable.
03:07We cannot expect good results even if we work year-round.
03:11We can't predict the droughts and heavy rain.
03:14If it happens, all the hard work will go in vain.
03:17Hey, you are teaching me about agriculture?
03:20Okay, I'll leave it to you.
03:22What did you decide to do?
03:23Dad, I want some time from you.
03:26I'll try to establish a business or else I would like to do a government job.
03:30Okay, I will give you some time.
03:33For now, I think you are right.
03:35Agriculture has difficulties and losses.
03:38Do as you wish.
03:40But there is a condition.
03:41I will give you some time, son.
03:43You go and search for the jobs that have really no difficulties and losses.
03:49If you found any, then I will give you the permission.
03:52Okay, Dad.
03:53I'll find one and you will come to know.
03:55Okay, but go first and meet the big businessman of our village.
03:58Ram Singh, you go and stay there for a week and learn some of the techniques from him.
04:03With his father's advice, Satish went to that big businessman in his village named Ram Singh,
04:09who had business worth lakhs of rupees.
04:12Yes, sir.
04:13What can we do for you?
04:15Sir, my name is Satish.
04:17I am the son of Mr. Jagannath.
04:19Just recently, I came here.
04:21After completing my education, I really wanted to start a new business.
04:25So, my father sent me here to learn some of the business techniques from you.
04:30Oh, you are the son of Jagannath.
04:32But you have hundreds of acres of land.
04:35Then why do you want to do business?
04:37Yeah, that's why I came to you.
04:40To understand business's hardships.
04:42And with that, I'll get the experience about doing the business.
04:46Then I will start my own business.
04:48Why all new generation kids are like this?
04:51Your estimation is wrong.
04:53You are thinking all glitters is gold.
04:56Dear, business is not a cakewalk.
04:59Okay, fine.
04:59You want to learn some techniques.
05:00Tomorrow, we will learn the ongoing transactions.
05:04Satish was very happy because Ram Singh had agreed to teach him the business techniques and he goes home.
05:11When he reached home, his father asked him,
05:13Oh, Satish.
05:14Why are you looking so much happy?
05:16What happened there?
05:17Yes, dad.
05:18Ram Singh agreed to teach me the business tactics.
05:23He asked me to come tomorrow.
05:25That's nice.
05:26You stay with him.
05:27I will advise you to observe what he does.
05:30Satish says okay and leaves from there.
05:33After Satish leaves, Anil comes and says,
05:36Hello, sir.
05:39I thought you would give all the responsibilities to Satish and we'll take rest.
05:43But you are encouraging him for the business.
05:47Look, Anit.
05:48He's educated.
05:49He has his own thought process.
05:52He's planning to do the business.
05:54Let's see.
05:54If he becomes successful, I'll be more than happy.
05:58Okay, sir.
05:58But I have a question.
05:59What about farming?
06:01I will take care of it as long as I have the capacity.
06:03Let's think about it later.
06:06Next morning, Satish happily goes to Ram Singh.
06:10Ram Singh has a sea trade.
06:12Every day, he imports and exports many things by ships.
06:17Hello, Satish.
06:18Come, come.
06:19Have you strongly decided to understand the business tactics?
06:22Tell me.
06:22Yes, sir.
06:23For business, I have some doubt in my mind.
06:26Will you clear them?
06:27What?
06:27You have started from the day one itself?
06:30Okay, ask.
06:31Sir, if we talk about business,
06:33which business is the most profitable one?
06:35My dear, you are very well educated.
06:38No business is profitable as before.
06:40Things are now tough.
06:42Every businessman wants to be successful and they try anything to do that.
06:45Competition has risen everywhere.
06:47Number of traders are increased.
06:49Costs are getting too high.
06:51There is no peace and happiness for us.
06:53Then what is it?
06:54You are earning a lot of money with the business, aren't you?
06:56Yes, true.
06:57But in this vast sea of the business, I may suffer the loss anytime.
07:01If I want to get things from the other countries, I have to pay lakhs of rupees in advance.
07:07So I take money on interest to buy those things for my business.
07:11Then I have to make money by selling them.
07:12And after that, I will clear all my debts.
07:16In one way, I am pouring all my money into a vast sea.
07:20So I cannot have peace of mind and I cannot sleep at night until the cargo reaches the dock.
07:26But the profits are also huge, no?
07:29Look Satish, if all goes well and we get profit, then everyone will become happy.
07:33But sometimes there are cyclones in the ocean and then all our cargoes get damaged.
07:38Not only a single problem.
07:39My business is full of difficulties and these difficulties make us lose our money.
07:44And we get into debt because of that.
07:47Then how do you tackle those situations?
07:49Now I am used to it.
07:50In any business, profit and loss are common in all situations.
07:54In loss, you have to keep yourself calm and focus on the bright side and keep ourselves faithful.
08:00And in profit, don't get too excited and focus on increasing our business growth.
08:05In all the situations, I have to manage secretly and live my life like I used to live.
08:10Ram Singh, sir, you mean to say that not only agriculture, but even big businesses like yours also make losses?
08:17Profit and loss are everywhere, Satish.
08:19That's why we cannot say that this business is good and this is bad.
08:23That's why our elder says that as many trees as wind.
08:27After listening about the hardships in the business, he gets reluctant on business.
08:32But he has no intention of going back to farming.
08:36He was very confused about what he should do next.
08:39So, he takes a leave from Ram Singh and thinks of doing something else.
08:44He comes home.
08:45My dear Satish, why did you come so early?
08:49Have you learnt everything from Ram Singh?
08:51Dad, after listening to Ram Singh, I realised that he is also suffering like you.
08:58Same as agriculture, the field of business also had its hardships and difficulties.
09:03So now, what do you want to do, son?
09:06Dad, I know you gave me much time.
09:09But I want some more time.
09:11Now, I want to take up a job.
09:14Okay.
09:14Do as you wish.
09:16I will never stop you, son.
09:18I have a belief in you.
09:20But, do you remember the condition?
09:23Yes, I do.
09:25In the work, I don't find any hardships.
09:28I have to take up that.
09:29Or else, I have to do farming with you.
09:32I remember.
09:34Okay.
09:35Fine then.
09:36Tell me, where will you go now?
09:37Dad, I have someone.
09:39My childhood friend Sudhakar.
09:40He is my very close friend.
09:42He lives in the town.
09:43I will go to him and try to ask him for some government job.
09:46After taking permission from his father, Satish leaves for town to meet his childhood friend.
09:54Anil was listening to all this conversation.
09:57He comes to Jagannath and says,
09:59Oh, sir.
09:59Satish is going to the town again.
10:02Why is he so stubborn?
10:03Why doesn't he listen to you?
10:04You are a very good father.
10:06See, Anil.
10:07In this age, he will not understand anything.
10:11When I was his age, I was also like him.
10:13If I try to stop him now and he will stop,
10:16for the rest of his life, he will regret that he could not do anything he wanted because of me.
10:21This is the reason why I am allowing him.
10:24He must learn from his experience.
10:26And I think, life is the best teacher than anyone else in this world.
10:31Yes, sir.
10:32He is very lucky to have a father like you.
10:36Now, Satish goes to the town straight away and meets his childhood friend.
10:40Sudhakar.
10:41Hey, Satish.
10:42Come, come.
10:43Sit.
10:43How are you?
10:44What are you doing?
10:45It's been a long time since we met.
10:47Wait, wait.
10:49Hold on, hold on, buddy.
10:50Let me answer too.
10:51I'm fine.
10:52How are you?
10:53You're not so good.
10:55I don't even have time to breathe because of work.
10:57It first seemed to be such a good job.
10:59But I want to quit it now.
11:02Now, I've decided to do farming peacefully in my village.
11:04What?
11:05Why do you want to leave all this, buddy?
11:08Have you gone mad?
11:09You have no idea why I came here.
11:12Oh, I got that much excited that I forgot to ask you.
11:16Now, please tell me, why did you come here?
11:21Satish tells everything about the condition put forth by his father and the experience with Ram Singh.
11:27He tells everything clearly to Sudhakar.
11:29All this happened, Sudhakar?
11:32I thought you were happy in the government job.
11:35You would help me getting a job, but you also want to quit this job.
11:38What's wrong with you, Sudhakar?
11:39Why do you want to left all this and go to the village and do the farming?
11:43Tell me.
11:43What happened, Sudhakar?
11:44Wait, Satish.
11:46Let me clear you this now.
11:48Your knowledge about the government job is half.
11:50It is not easy at all.
11:51It's like a war.
11:52If higher officials get angry, I'll be the victim.
11:55Why are you talking like that, Sudhakar?
11:57They are paying you a handsome salary and status also.
11:59Then what is the problem?
12:01Please tell me.
12:01I will tell you, they are all superficial.
12:04The grass is always greener on the outer side.
12:07It seems easy and full of status, but trust me, it's not.
12:10Yes, they are providing the facilities, but really not the luxury.
12:14On top of that, they want to get the tedious work done.
12:17I am not happy at all.
12:18Satish, why are you saying all this?
12:20Then why are all these people working here?
12:22Yeah, I'll tell you.
12:24To meet their family needs, they are working here.
12:27They have no other way.
12:28They have to do all this whether they like it or not.
12:31If seniors get angry, we may lose our job.
12:33Even your promotion depends on your seniors.
12:36That's the reason.
12:37Oh, Sudhakar, that's really sad to hear.
12:40I thought you would help me in getting a job, and I didn't listen to my father.
12:44What?
12:45You want to do a job?
12:46Like me, I'm not happy here.
12:48For me, it's compulsion.
12:50Why do you want to do it?
12:51I have a suggestion for you.
12:52I know that you are very intelligent.
12:54As your father said, use your intelligence in farming and be happy.
12:58That will be good for you.
12:59And you can provide jobs to many people.
13:01No, in our house, everything is fine.
13:04But we don't get the monthly income.
13:06It is not so.
13:07We are not happy with the monthly salary.
13:09You should know that employees' lives are uncertain.
13:11It's definitely not like what people see from outside.
13:15These salaries are not sufficient to feed our family.
13:18Sudhakar's words opened Satish's eyes.
13:23He understood everything and came back home.
13:27Seeing his son's sad face, Jagannath asked him,
13:30What happened, son?
13:32Why are you so sad?
13:34Have you met your friend?
13:35Tell me what did he say to you?
13:37Dad, as you say, I met everyone and understood one thing.
13:42There is no work without hardships, dad.
13:45There is a saying that the grass is always greener on the other side.
13:49Dad, as I have seen you farming since childhood, I thought it was a very small job.
13:55I lost dad.
13:56No, son.
13:57You are not lost.
13:59You thought there are hardships in agriculture only.
14:02But that's not true.
14:04You have experienced agriculture only.
14:06But the truth is, where there is profit, there will be definitely loss also.
14:13In the same way, where there is happiness, there will be some difficulties also.
14:19You should understand that there will be not profitable business.
14:22Hardships are all the way of our lives.
14:25One should always be self-confident.
14:28Only then, only then one can face all the hardships of his life.
14:33You are absolutely right, dad.
14:34I am now feeling where we are.
14:37If we have the power of self-confidence, we can face any kind of hardships.
14:42I have realized my mistake.
14:43Now I will change myself.
14:45From now on, I will focus on agriculture and find ways to improve the yield.
14:50Very good.
14:51You finally came to know the value of our work.
14:54There will be no big and small works.
14:57All that depends on the intellect of the man who is doing it.
15:01What do you say, Anil?
15:02What will I say, sir?
15:03I will totally agree with you.
15:06And I will support Satish.
15:09Saying this, everyone laughed.
15:11From that day onwards, Satish daily goes to farm.
15:15By using new techniques in agriculture, he doubled the yield in a very short time.
15:19And became the most successful farmer in that village.
15:24Seeing all these changes in his son, Jagannath is very happy.
15:28And he started to...
15:29...
15:33...
