Hey Rizwan! You've failed. You failed in a few subjects in B.
Com 1 and completely failed B. Com Part 2. Dad is coming with a pistol, go, run away, Mom is saying go to aunt's house.
Mom, my B. Com result is out. I heard.
When your dad comes home in the evening, he'll check and tell you. Mom. .
. . .
. Mom Why is your heart beating so fast? Mom!
If I don't find out my marks, my heart will stop. So what should I do? I told you, your dad will tell you when he comes in the evening.
Mom, that's if I survive until the evening. Go, ask someone in the neighborhood. We're not on good terms with anyone in the neighborhood.
How can I face them and ask? Even a stranger would help this much. Shaheena is our neighbour, right?
Go ask her. Yes. I'll be back, Mom.
I'll go ask and come back. Hello! Yes.
My B. Com result is out. If you could check it on your phone and tell me.
Our internet package has run out. Does anyone else in the house have an internet package? They never usually ask, but when they need something, they just show up.
Hey! What happened? Did you fail?
No, mom. I told you they wouldn't help. I had also told you to wait until evening for your father to come home.
Have you gone mad? Why are you making this so serious? Mom, it is a serious matter.
If I don't find out my marks, I'll stop breathing. Please do something, please. What can I do?
Mom, there's a computer shop in the next street. They can tell me. Use your common sense.
You know very well I don't talk to stranger men. Your dad has absolutely not given permission for that. I'm very scared of his anger.
And you've passed that same fear down to me as an inheritance, mom. Mom, I’m going anyway. You know your dad, don't you?
Five hundred and fifty-six. Oh! Mom!
Mom! Mom! Yes?
What happened? Did you pass or not? I got five hundred and fifty-six marks.
Five hundred and fifty-six? Wow! These are really good marks.
Thank God. Listen, don't tell your dad anything. If he finds out.
. . you went to the computer shop to get your result, he'll kill you.
I won't tell him, mom. Thank God, I’m finally done carrying the responsibility of your education. Every time you went to college.
. . I was constantly worried about you.
Mom, the responsibility isn't over. I still have to go to university. Don't even mention the word university.
God knows how your dad even agreed to your B. Com. If your college hadn't been for 14 years of schooling instead of 12, he wouldn't have even let you do your B.
Com. So this was my life. left the house and went straight into college.
Keep your gaze lowered when you leave and when you come back. Mom! I will go to university.
Fine, tell your father about this, okay? He'll send you to university, properly. Dad, my friends watch cartoons in the morning before they come and talk about them all the time.
I have nothing to talk about, we don't even have a TV. It's a good thing we don't have a TV. You become like the things you watch the most.
If you watch cartoons, you'll become a cartoon. Huh? They haven't become cartoons.
They will when they grow up. You might as well. .
. keep your eyes and ears closed. Why is that?
Because, every temptation. . .
affects a person's mind through the eyes and ears. Then it spreads throughout the body. Don't make eye contact with anyone.
It's a transaction. Do you know what a transaction is? An exchange.
Eyes communicate with each other. And they affect. .
. a person's heart and mind. So if you want to stay safe, then keep your ears and eyes closed.
Dad, ears are for hearing, and eyes are for seeing. If a person doesn't see, what will they do? Well, child, God also made feet for walking, but that doesn't mean a person .
. . should walk all the time.
Those who keep their eyes and ears too open, the devil gets inside them. Do you understand? Five hundred and fifty six.
Hurmat Did you tell Mr Akram about the meeting? One minute, I'll tell him now. I'll talk to him.
Mom, I think dad is here. Mom! Mom!
Hello! Mr Akram. How are you?
Hello! I'm fine. The neighborhood has arranged a meeting for tomorrow.
We request you to please come. You know I have no interest in neighborhood matters. One cannot live cut off from society.
If you cut yourself off from society, what kind of life is that? A person should socialize with others. Please don’t mind what I’m saying.
This boy sitting here, do you know him? Yes, yes. Zameer, He’s from this neighbourhood He is not Zameer (conscience), He has no conscience.
He’s no innocent young man; he’s cunning. What do you mean? He entered your house pretending to bring milk, yogurt, and vegetables, and now he roams around the whole city with your daughter on his bike.
This is the result of socialising with others. You shouldn't take it the wrong way either. Mom, when are you coming out?
Dad keeps ringing the bell. Hello! dad.
Where is your mom? In the washroom. So you should have waited for her, shouldn't you?
What was the need to open the door so late at night? I was waiting, dad, but the bell rang repeatedly and I knew it was you. Keep your gaze lowered.
How many times have I told you not to make eye contact when you speak? Don't you understand? Go.
Dad, my result is out. Who told you? No one told, there was a lot of noise in the street.
You two always have your ears glued to the street. Who heard it? Was it you or her?
I heard it. Actually, there was a lot of noise in the street. Maybe some child had failed, so all the shouting could be heard inside the house.
Hmm. What is your roll number? One zero, three zero, five zero.
Wait a second. Hmm. One zero, three zero, five zero.
Five hundred and fifty six. Dad, aren't these good marks? They're good.
Dad, all my friends are going to university, I also want to. . .
Let those who want to go, go to hell. You will not go to university, understand? Dad, I will go to university.
Hurmat. Go make tea. Go, good girl.
Brother is coming the evening after tomorrow. Really, what time is the flight? Don't try to be so clever, understand?
Getting excited about the flight for no reason We will reach home by 5 PM. He doesn't seem as scary as dad is scared of him. Even a wild beast fears its master.
Your paternal uncle was the eldest son of the house. Like a dad. Even now, just hearing his voice, makes your father hold his breath.
Mom! why did uncle leave home? What home?
He left the country, my child. He was deeply shocked by his wife's death. In those days, the government had.
. . started some retirement scheme.
That's it. He just took his son and went to America. It seems your uncle has arrived, go open the door.
Okay. Mom, what if it's Dad? Yes, Well.
. Okay. .
. I'll see. Dear, put the luggage down, you'll get tired.
No sir, it's okay. The bags will get dirty. Have some tea before you go.
No sir, thank you very much. The car is unattended outside. Some other time.
You seem educated. Yes sir, I have a Master's degree. Hello!
brother. Hello! How are you?
I'm perfectly fine, how are you? All thanks to God. Hurmat, come.
Oh! Hello! uncle.
Hello! Hurmat, my child, how are you? Fine.
Are you okay? Come on son, put the luggage inside. Brother, Hurmat and I will put it inside.
We'll do it, uncle. Hey, the luggage is heavy, how will you two manage? Come on son, come on.
Come. Come. Come.
Yes, let's go. Come. Just put it here.
Put it here. That's fine. Ah!
What's your name? Afnan. Okay, go.
Take this. Go. Hmm.
Where are you going? Where did you come from? tell me?
I'm not a thief, I haven't stolen anything, brother. Brother, what are you doing? I didn't do anything.
Akram! Brother! What happened?
Let him go, he came to put the luggage down, what's wrong with you? Huh? Leave him.
You can go. The poor guy just came to drop off the luggage. Come on.
Come. Close the door. I was thinking that.
. . you would have changed yourself, with time.
But no, you are still the same. You raised your hand on a young boy. If that boy had raised his hand back at you, what dignity would you have left?
Brother, you tell me, who lets a stranger man enter the house like this? Why are you looking at them? I was the one who told that boy to put the luggage inside.
You've grown old. I don't know when you'll get some sense. My child.
Yes, uncle. Your. .
. What happened with your studies? Yes, uncle.
. . Brother, her studies are complete.
It's complete? Has she done her PhD? No, brother, she has done her B.
Com. In fact, the result just came out two days ago. By the grace of God, she has passed with good marks.
Nafeesa, B. Com degree is hardly considered an education these days Every other person has a Master's degree. Brother, Hurmat doesn't want to study beyond B.
Com. And I don't think it's appropriate either. What does that even mean, man?
Brother, you have come after such a long journey. You must be tired. Hmm!
I’ll serve the food for you all. Come, Hurmat, help me in the kitchen. Come on.
Alright. Hey! It's 11 o'clock?
No one woke me up. Amazing. Oh!
Hurmat, child. Yes, uncle. What happened?
Nothing. Child, you've made me worried. Then why are you standing here crying?
It's nothing, uncle. I'm not crying. Look here.
Look at me. Why are you keeping your eyes lowered? Have you done something wrong?
I haven't done anything wrong, uncle. Look, child, even if you have done something wrong, I am with you. I haven't done anything wrong, uncle.
Then why are you crying? Uncle, what can I tell you? Where should I start?
Uncle, dad has, turned this house, into a prison for us. I'm forbidden from going out. He hits mom, he hits me.
I saw the sky from my house for the first time today. I'm not allowed to go to university. My friends are going.
I'm forbidden from playing outside. I sit at home and talk to these walls. I'm not allowed to leave the house.
Hello! brother. Hello!
come, sit. Okay. Sit.
When did you get back from the office? I just got back a little while ago. Hmm!
How's the job going? It's going well. Good.
Hmm. What are you teaching Hurmat? What am I teaching Hurmat?
That which is best for her. What is best? To remain ignorant, uncultured, and illiterate.
This is what you are teaching her. Brother, I have never said anything like this to you, but. .
. I would like to say one thing. Hmm.
You gave your child freedom. He put you in an old-age home and went off to enjoy his life. Now do you want Hurmat to get the same kind of freedom?
Look, Akram. My son. .
. is enjoying his life with my permission. And I am very happy in the old-age home.
Because I have lived my life and now I am letting my child live his. You have also lived your life. Let Hurmat live hers.
Brother, I have never stopped Hurmat from living her life. Look, Akram. People may lie with their words, their face certainly tells the truth.
Sometime, listen to what Hurmat's face says. What does it say? The fear that you are living in, that.
. . fear is still present in this house today.
The tragedy that happened, you're living in fear that it might happen again. Why are you punishing your daughter for your own actions? I have seen that you are being cruel to Hurmat.
Brother, whatever I am doing, I am doing it to protect Hurmat. You know what the world is like, and so do I. Look, despite knowing what the world is like, you are still making her weak.
And it is a principle of nature that, the weakest thing is the first to be destroyed. If you want to make Hurmat strong, then give her. .
. Give her education, give her exposure. so that she can fight against the world.
Brother, I agree with you, but. . .
No 'buts'. I. .
. I’m arranging Hurmat’s admission. Stop right where you are.
Everyone, put your hands up. Who are you, man? Who are you?
Make them all stand in a line. I'll make you people stand in a line. Do you know who I am?
And whose warehouse is this? Do you know who I am? Government.
Arrest them all. Seal the warehouse. Let's go.
Let's go. What's wrong? Don't touch me.
Do you know whose man I am? I'm going to the office. Complete the proceedings and report to me.
Dude, have you ever seen him laugh? No, man, he neither laughs nor cries. Neither happy nor sad.
From the first day until today, I've only seen one expression. He has a face of stone. Hurmat!
are you ready? Yes, Mom. Come on, come quickly, your dad is waiting.
Go meet your uncle too. He's going back. When is he going back?
Today. I'm coming. Come, child.
Hello! uncle. Hello!
Uncle, you're leaving? Yes, child. I was supposed to leave many days ago, but.
. . I stayed because of your university.
You didn't even tell me. Child, I will come back very soon. Don't be sad.
You are embarking on a new journey. I will miss you a lot. I will miss you a lot too.
Go, child. I have met Akram. He must be waiting for you.
Go quickly. Today is your first day at university. There shouldn't be any unpleasantness.
Thank you, uncle. Good bye. Good bye.
