0:00Amidst heavy rain , this small town
0:02neighborhood is where most people live
0:04in single-story houses . Meanwhile ,
0:07Vrinda lives with her in-laws and
0:09husband in a four-story house . Among
0:11the surrounding single-story houses ,
0:13Vrinda's four-story house shines quite
0:15differently . Right in front of Vrinda's
0:18four-story house , her 8 - month pregnant
0:21sister-in-law Seema lives in a
0:23single-story house with her husband ,
0:25who works as a supervisor . Today , the
0:28husband and wife are sitting by the
0:30window watching TV .
0:32Yes , we are watching . Ever since the
0:34rainy season started , it has been
0:36raining non-stop , and for the past few
0:38days , it has become even heavier . I
0:40don't even remember when the sun last
0:42came out these past few days .
0:44Look , don't you worry . You are in your
0:47eighth month of pregnancy . It wouldn't
0:48be good for you to be anxious like this
0:50.
0:51No , I'm not worried . I am just saying
0:53that it is raining way too much .
0:55Whenever you go to work , please be
0:57careful . Many potholes are filled with
1:00water and aren't visible . People get
1:03hurt .
1:05As soon as Seema finishes speaking , a
1:06news anchor appears on the TV screen .
1:09Outside , the heavy rain continues to
1:11pour down .
1:13If you are ignoring the constant rain
1:15in your city , then be careful , because
1:17the rain is now about to turn into a
1:20flood . The rivers in our city are
1:22overflowing and have crossed the danger
1:24mark . The situation could get worse
1:26very soon . According to the
1:28Meteorological Department , the rain is
1:30going to intensify further in the
1:31coming days .
1:32You are absolutely right . The rain is
1:35taking a dangerous turn . Anyway , never
1:37mind , don't you worry . I am here with
1:39you . Talking like this , night falls .
1:42Seema and Bhargav eat their dinner and
1:43go to sleep . The next morning , amidst
1:46heavy rain , Bhargav has breakfast with
1:49Seema and gives her her medicine .
1:51Bhargav takes an umbrella and leaves
1:53for his job at the factory . In the
1:55evening , amidst heavy rain , Raju comes
1:56to the neighborhood to sell vegetables ,
1:58covering his cart with a plastic sheet .
2:01Nearby neighbors gather to buy
2:04vegetables . From the balcony of the
2:06four-story house opposite , Vrinda looks
2:08down at the vegetable cart .
2:11Hey vegetable seller , give me
2:12vegetables first . I am lowering the bag
2:15down . Put in whatever vegetables my
2:16mother-in-law asks for .
2:18Yes , give me two kilos of potatoes .
2:19Give me half a kilo of tomatoes . Give
2:21me some onions , and along with them ,
2:22give me a little bit of all the other
2:23vegetables too . Vrinda lowers the bag
2:26down . Raju starts putting vegetables
2:28into the bag . Seema , standing nearby ,
2:30asks the price of the vegetables .
2:32Hey brother , how much for these
2:34eggplants ?
2:35Sister , one eggplant is 25 rupees .
2:38Hey , have you lost your mind or what ?
2:4125 rupees for one eggplant ? Since when
2:43did eggplants get so expensive ?
2:45Sister , it’s not just the eggplants ,
2:46all vegetables have become expensive .
2:48The bridge through which village
2:50vegetables used to reach the city was
2:52washed away by the strong river current
2:53. The supply of vegetables from the
2:55village has stopped . That is why the
2:57vegetables that are arriving now have
2:58increased in price .
2:59What is this , brother ? We poor people
3:01are already troubled by the rain . Work
3:03is not going well at all . On top of
3:05that , you have also raised the prices .
3:06Absolutely . Brother , isn't there any
3:09other way ? How can we afford such
3:10expensive vegetables ? You tell me . Hey
3:13brother , I said give me the vegetables
3:16first . The crying and whining of these
3:18poor people never ends . If it doesn't
3:20rain , they cry ; if it rains , they still
3:22cry . If they get vegetables , they cry ,
3:24and if they don't , they still cry . You
3:26give me the vegetables first . Stop your
3:28constant whining .
3:30Raju puts the vegetables into Vrinda's
3:32bag .
3:33Sister-in-law , this matter is not
3:35something to be ignored . You can see
3:36the rain yourself . It is raining so
3:38heavily . Whole villages have been
3:40submerged . Now it’s our city’s turn
3:42. I suggest you all stay alert as well .
3:45If a flood situation arises , safety and
3:46food are more important . That’s why
3:49you should keep a few things on a
3:51higher floor . We don't need to do any
3:53of that . Worry about your own one-story
3:55house . Nothing will happen to us in our
3:57four-story house . Such rain won't cause
4:00any trouble for those living in a
4:02four-story building .
4:03Daughter-in-law , your sister-in-law is
4:05saying the right thing . Don't ignore
4:06Seema's words , and elder
4:08daughter-in-law , you take care of
4:09yourself too . You are pregnant . Take
4:12your medicines on time and be careful
4:15when stepping out in the rain .
4:17Yes , Father , I will take full care of
4:19myself .
4:20Hearing this , Nirmala glares at Sukhdev
4:22. Sukhdev goes inside the house without
4:24saying a word . Just then , Viraj and
4:26Bhargav return from their respective
4:28work . Mom , why are you getting angry ?
4:32Sister-in-law is absolutely right . I am
4:34just coming from the factory . Due to
4:36the continuous rain in many areas of
4:37the city , all the drains are clogged
4:39and there is no space left for water to
4:41flow into the rivers . It is not right
4:43to rely so much on a four-story house
4:44under these conditions . Dad had built
4:47this house as a two-story structure ,
4:49and without strengthening the
4:50foundation , you all added two more
4:52floors on top . Because of this , there
4:54is too much weight on the house's
4:55foundation . The foundation of the house
4:57could weaken , and it’s not safe to
4:59trust a four-story house this much .
5:01Look at them , those who live in a
5:03one-story house themselves are teaching
5:04us how to build a house . Well , clean
5:07your own teeth first before you start
5:08counting pearls . Fix your own work
5:10first , then come to lecture others .
5:13Saying this , Nirmala takes the bag of
5:15vegetables and walks into the house ,
5:17turning her face away . Viraj and Vrinda
5:19also go inside . Seema and Bhargav go
5:22into their one-story house . A few days
5:24pass by like this . Heavy rain continues
5:27incessantly . One day , the area outside
5:30the door of Seema's one-story house
5:32fills with rainwater and mud . Seema
5:35steps out of the house , and as soon as
5:37her foot hits the mud , she slips . Oh ,
5:40oh sister-in-law , be careful ! What were
5:42you doing ? You would have slipped and
5:44fallen just now . Sister-in-law , please
5:46come inside the house first , come
5:47inside and talk . Oh no , no
5:49sister-in-law , if I come inside , then
5:51you know , the younger sister-in-law
5:53will get angry . I just saw you slipping
5:55, that’s why I came to catch you .
5:57What can I do ? The threshold of our
5:59house is a bit low , so mud often
6:01accumulates due to rainwater . I clean
6:03it every time , but this time I didn't
6:05pay attention . It’s a good thing you
6:07saved me . What happened , sister-in-law ?
6:10What are you doing there ? Your house is
6:11here , isn't it ? Or do you want to live
6:14with thieves ? Come inside the house . Oh
6:16sister-in-law , please don't feel bad
6:17about what the younger sister-in-law
6:18said . She just has a small
6:20misunderstanding , which is why she
6:22thinks you are a thief . Yes ,
6:24sister-in-law , I know the circumstances
6:26were such that I had to separate , and I
6:28could never prove myself right . Anyway ,
6:31you should go now , or the younger
6:32sister-in-law will get upset . Vrinda
6:35and Shivani go inside their four-story
6:38house , and Seema sadly starts
6:39remembering the past . It is the rainy
6:43season . One night , inside the house ,
6:46Vrinda angrily calls all the family
6:48members into the room . What happened ?
6:53Why did you shout and call us all into
6:55the room ?
6:56My sister-in-law has stolen my jewelry .
6:58Have you lost your mind ? Sister-in-law
7:01can never do such a thing . If she
7:02needed your jewelry , she would have
7:04asked you for it .
7:05Don't take your sister-in-law's side so
7:07much . She comes from a poor family and
7:09must have been tempted seeing my rich
7:10daughter-in-law's jewelry . She is the
7:12one who stole my daughter-in-law's
7:14jewelry . Otherwise , how would my
7:15daughter-in-law's jewelry be found in
7:17her room ?
7:18Please believe me , Mother . I did not
7:20take the jewelry . Even though this
7:22jewelry was found in my room , I didn't
7:24bring it there . I have complete faith
7:28in my wife . If Seema needed anything ,
7:31she would have told me . Even if Seema
7:33wanted this jewelry , she would have
7:35asked for it . She wouldn't steal it . I
7:37just cannot believe that Seema stole
7:40this jewelry . The argument escalates
7:42into a heated exchange between all the
7:44family members .
7:46I have seen my jewelry with my own eyes
7:48in my sister-in-law's room . Still , you
7:50don't trust my word .
7:52But it isn't right to accuse my
7:53sister-in-law of theft without knowing
7:54the full story .
7:55Then how did my jewelry reach my
7:57sister-in-law's room ?
7:58I don't know . But she cannot steal .
8:01All of you , please calm down first .
8:02Fighting like this won't solve anything
8:04.
8:05Hey , be quiet . As soon as they hear
8:07Sukhdev's voice , the argument in the
8:09house stops . Ever since there have been
8:11two daughters-in-law in the house ,
8:13there has been friction between them . I
8:14know very well that the reason for this
8:16fight is not theft . The reason for this
8:18fight is just wealth and poverty . My
8:20elder son is a small supervisor in a
8:22company and my younger son is a manager
8:24in a big company . It is my fault that I
8:26did not educate both children equally
8:28and did not bring equal
8:29daughters-in-law into the house . From
8:32today , both my sons and both my
8:34daughters-in-law will live separately
8:37so that at least our love and affection
8:39remains . There will definitely be
8:42distance , but love and affection will
8:44remain . Papa is absolutely right . I
8:47also cannot stay in a house where my
8:49wife is falsely accused . That same
8:51night , Bhargav leaves the house with
8:53Seema . A small house is lying vacant in
8:55front of them . The old owners of the
8:58house have already left . Based on the
9:01monthly salary from his supervisor job ,
9:03Bhargav sets up an EMI for goods and
9:05also gets the house repaired . In the
9:08beginning , Bhargav and Seema live in a
9:10small shack . Slowly , as the EMI
9:12installments are paid off , the house
9:13repairs are completed , and both start
9:15living in the same house . Time passes
9:17by . Bhargav keeps paying the EMI
9:19installment every month . After a few
9:22years of installments , only a year or
9:25two of EMIs remain . Just one or two
9:28more years of EMI to pay . After that ,
9:31this house will be completely ours .
9:33The house will be ours , but who knows
9:35when our family will be complete .
9:37Bhargav falls silent upon hearing
9:39Seema’s words . Seema also feels
9:40troubled and drops the matter right
9:42there . The next day , it was drizzling .
9:45Supporting her belly , Seema is slowly
9:46taking down clothes on the roof and
9:48cleaning the moss gathered there .
9:50Oh God , the rain has intensified again .
9:52There isn’t even time for the water
9:54to drip off the clothes . This rain just
9:56keeps pouring whenever it wants . There
9:58is so much moss here too . I have to
10:00clean this as well .
10:02Just then , Vrinda comes to the fourth
10:03floor and looks down at Seema . Sukhdev
10:05and Nirmala are also sitting there
10:08having tea and breakfast .
10:10Mom , look at that thief standing on her
10:13roof . Daughter-in-law , don't call me to
10:15look at this thief's face . I don't like
10:17looking at her . God is doing the right
10:19thing by troubling her in this rain .
10:22Otherwise , if she lived with us , we
10:23would have had to bear her medical
10:25expenses and care . Our money would have
10:27been spent . Mom , just watch how fun it
10:29will be now . There are empty biscuit
10:31wrappers and some trash lying near
10:33Vrinda . Vrinda picks up the trash and
10:35throws it down . Due to the strong wind ,
10:38the trash flies onto Seema's roof , and
10:40a container falls on Seema's head .
10:42Sister-in-law , I know you are annoyed
10:44with me . But don’t throw trash here
10:46and there like this . I am pregnant . I
10:48cannot bend down . I am somehow managing
10:50to clean the roof and pick up the
10:51clothes . Why are you doing this ? I
10:53didn't do it on purpose . I just threw
10:56it down from my house . Everyone throws
10:59trash below their house . It flew onto
11:01your one-story house . Is that my fault ?
11:04Why did you build a one-story house ?
11:06Right below my four-story house ? Young
11:09sister-in-law , what kind of way is this
11:10to talk to your elder sister-in-law ?
11:12Does anyone talk to the eldest
11:13daughter-in-law of the house like this ?
11:15Yes , Shivani is absolutely right . Do
11:18younger daughters-in-law talk to their
11:19elder sisters-in-law like this ?
11:20You spoke again ? Aren't you ashamed to
11:22speak between the daughters-in-law ? Oh ,
11:24whether you are the father-in-law or
11:25the sister-in-law , you always pop up in
11:27between . Sukhdev falls silent after
11:29hearing Nirmala . Shivani also says
11:31nothing .
11:32Father-in-law , please let it be . It’s
11:34okay , I will clean it up .
11:35Saying this , Seema cleans the garbage
11:38collected on the terrace and goes
11:40inside her house . A few days pass by
11:42like this . It is a Sunday afternoon and
11:44it is drizzling . In her one-story house
11:47, Seema is wringing out clothes and
11:48placing them near the window to dry .
11:51I will just put these clothes on the
11:53window . As Seema lifts the bucket , she
11:55suddenly feels a sharp pain in her
11:57stomach . Seema stops right there ,
11:59holding her stomach .
12:01It is hurting very badly .
12:04Just then , Shivani quietly reaches
12:06Seema’s house and starts taking the
12:08bucket from her hand .
12:10Sister-in-law , you leave it , I have
12:11arrived . I will do it . Oh sister-in-law
12:13, why have you come here ? Today is
12:15Sunday . Brother must also be coming
12:17with the medicine . I will spread out
12:18the clothes too . Then I will sit with
12:20my elder brother and sister-in-law and
12:21have tea and snacks today . Yes , yes ,
12:23why not ? You go ahead and spread the
12:25clothes , I will make tea and breakfast
12:27in the kitchen .
12:29Shivani wrings out the clothes and
12:30starts spreading them near the window .
12:32After some time , Vrinda arrives at the
12:34front door from outside with an
12:35umbrella . Vrinda’s eyes fall on
12:37Shivani’s slippers kept outside the
12:39door . Vrinda goes to the window and
12:42looks inside . Where Shivani is
12:43spreading the clothes . Then Vrinda
12:45comes inside and
12:47Oh sister-in-law , so on a Sunday you
12:50have come to help this thief . Instead
12:53of doing some housework . All you want
12:55to do is work at others ' houses . But
12:57remember , the clothes you are wearing
12:59and the studies you are pursuing , all
13:01that is provided by those of the
13:03four-story house . Not by this one-story
13:06thief . Younger sister-in-law , how many
13:08times have I told you that elder
13:09sister-in-law is not a thief . Even
13:10after so many years , you people haven't
13:11been able to recognize her . Your hearts
13:13don't change even after seeing her
13:14circumstances . Anyway , leave it . I
13:16don't even want to talk to you about
13:18this .
13:19Shivani turns her face away in anger
13:21and starts spreading the clothes in
13:22Seema’s house itself . The next day ,
13:24on the fourth floor , Vrinda and Nirmala
13:26are mopping the floor . It is raining
13:28continuously outside .
13:30Mom , we both have finished mopping . Now
13:33what should we do with this mop water ?
13:35Oh look , that thief daughter-in-law is
13:36sitting down there . Looks like she
13:37hasn't bathed in many days . Let's give
13:39her a bath . Yes , yes , why not , Mom ?
13:42Vrinda picks up the mop water and
13:44throws it on Seema , who is gardening
13:46down below . Seema is taking care of the
13:48plants while holding an umbrella to
13:50stay dry from the rain . That is why
13:52only splashes of water reach Seema . But
13:54due to the water falling , many small
13:56branches of the flowering plants break .
14:00Mother , if you have any grudge against
14:02me , then say two things to me . I will
14:05listen . Why did you ruin these little
14:07plants and throw mop water at me ? It
14:10smells of phenyl .
14:12Seema starts feeling nauseous from the
14:14strong smell of phenyl . Seema turns her
14:16face away and starts vomiting .
14:18Oh sister , how cruel you are becoming .
14:21She is your eldest daughter-in-law .
14:22Before the younger daughter-in-law
14:24arrived , it was the elder one who took
14:25care of you and managed the family . Now
14:27that the younger daughter-in-law has
14:28arrived , you started living happily
14:29with her and began harassing your elder
14:31daughter-in-law . What does it have to
14:32do with you ? This is my personal matter
14:34. Why are you interfering in this ? No
14:37mother , interference is necessary . If
14:39someone does such things , then we will
14:41have to interfere . Nirmala gets
14:43irritated hearing Bhargav's words .
14:45Amidst the growing resentment in the
14:47house , everyone goes to their
14:48respective homes and rooms . The day
14:51passes . The next day , seeing Seema's
14:53condition , Bhargav takes her to Dr.
14:56Neha . The doctor examines Seema .
14:59There is no need to panic . Everything
15:00is normal , but the delivery time is
15:02very close now . Please take special
15:04care of her and do not ignore any
15:06problem . It is night time . Seema and
15:10Bhargav return from the doctor's , eat ,
15:12and go to sleep . Around 3:00 AM , the
15:15rain turns into a heavy storm .
15:18Lightning begins to strike in the sky ,
15:20and the entire city starts trembling
15:22with loud thunder . The river water
15:25rises and surges toward the city ,
15:27swallowing roads , lamp posts , many
15:29shops , and buildings , engulfing the
15:31entire neighborhood , including the
15:33single-story house where Seema was
15:34sleeping peacefully . Bhargav , wake up
15:39quickly . Look , our house is flooding .
15:41Let's go upstairs quickly . It seems
15:43like a flood has arrived .
15:44Yes , let's go quickly . They somehow
15:46reach the roof . Be careful , don't slip .
15:49Tell Mom and Dad as well that if anyone
15:51is on the ground floor , they should
15:53immediately go upstairs . But I have
15:55kept a bag in the kitchen . It has
15:56biscuits , bread , etc. , and a filled
15:58water bottle is also kept right next to
16:00it . Please take that along too .
16:02Alright . I will go get the bag . And
16:04don't you worry about the rest of them .
16:06They will be safe too . Walk slowly to
16:08the roof . Seema had already packed some
16:11food in a bag and filled a bottle with
16:13water , prepared for an emergency like
16:15this . Bhargav wades through waist-deep
16:19water , mud , and debris to reach the
16:21kitchen , grabs the bag and water bottle
16:23from the slab , and heads up to the roof
16:25of their single-story house with Seema
16:28in the rain . People from other
16:31single-story houses nearby have also
16:33reached their roofs .
16:34Oh , there’s a flood ! The flood is
16:36here ! The whole house is filled with
16:38water . Oh God , what do we do now ? Get
16:41out ! Everyone hurry up ! Get out ! Who
16:44knows how far this flood will rise .
16:46This rain just won't stop . The water
16:48level keeps rising . I feel like this
16:51flood is going to swallow our houses .
16:54Those who couldn't gauge the flood are
16:56caught in the water . But somehow ,
16:59people are grabbing onto whatever is
17:01sturdy and climbing onto any available
17:02roof . Meanwhile , some weak houses
17:06collapse under the strong current , and
17:09neighbors help each other reach safety .
17:13On the other side , Vrinda , Viraj ,
17:15Nirmala , Sukhdev , and Shivani , who were
17:17fast asleep on the fourth floor of
17:18Devarani's building , wake up in a panic
17:20hearing the noise . What happened ? Where
17:24did all this water come from ? Mother ?
17:26There is water everywhere I look . It
17:28really is a flood . And look at that
17:30thief standing huddled on the roof with
17:32her husband .
17:33Vrinda , this is a flood . The rain and
17:35the overflowing river are swallowing
17:37the whole city . And you are still
17:38playing these sister-in-law games ?
17:40Don't you understand the gravity of the
17:41situation ?
17:42Are you teaching me about the gravity
17:43of the situation ? I built this
17:44four-story house . Otherwise , you and
17:46your family would also be trapped in
17:47this flood . At least we are safe . We —
17:50oh , the power's gone too . There's no
17:53signal on the phone either . Now we
17:55can't even contact anyone .
17:57Everyone , please stay calm . It's dark ,
17:59so we can't see anything clearly yet .
18:01Let the sun rise , then we'll see how
18:03high the water has reached .
18:05Father , don't you worry . Our
18:07single-story house isn't submerged yet .
18:09Which means the water is currently less
18:11than one story high . You all stay safe
18:13on the fourth floor . All night , amidst
18:16heavy rain and rising floodwaters ,
18:18people sit huddled in fear on their
18:19rooftops . Water floods some houses ,
18:22while parts of others break away in the
18:24strong current . People help each other
18:27and somehow spend the night on the
18:28roofs of single-story concrete houses .
18:31The next morning breaks with heavy rain
18:34, and water is visible everywhere . Only
18:37the roofs of single-story houses are
18:39visible , with terrified people sitting
18:41on them . Seema and Bhargav are also
18:44standing on the roof of their house .
18:46Meanwhile , on the fourth floor of a
18:48four-story building , Vrinda , Nirmala ,
18:49Sukhdev , Viraj , and Shivani sit
18:51comfortably eating biscuits .
18:53See , Viraj , you used to ask why I keep
18:56biscuits in the room , right ? Look , how
18:58useful the biscuits kept in the room
19:00are coming in today . It would be even
19:01better if we had some hot tea to go
19:03with it . But that’s alright . The
19:04kitchen is on the first floor . So , tea
19:06can't be made . We'll have to manage
19:08with just the biscuits . Just then ,
19:11Chintu , sitting on the roof of his
19:13single-story mud house below , sees
19:15Vrinda eating biscuits .
19:17Auntie , I am very hungry . Please give
19:20me one biscuit too .
19:21Oh , Vrinda sister , please give just one
19:23from the biscuits you have to my child
19:26too . The poor thing is hungry . Why on
19:28earth should I give you my biscuits ? Do
19:30I have some treasure stored away that I
19:32should give to you ?
19:33Oh , please just give them . We might be
19:35able to bear the hunger . But how will
19:37that child endure it ? You just stand
19:39there quietly . If you don't want to eat
19:40, then don't . I am hungry . I will eat
19:43the biscuits all by myself . I have a
19:45packet of biscuits . Give this to your
19:47child .
19:48Oh , but you are pregnant yourself . You
19:50need to eat as well . I am fine . I am
19:53not hungry right now . You feed the
19:55child . Seema tosses the biscuits toward
19:58Shyamli . Shyamli catches the biscuits
19:59and gives them to her child . The child
20:01begins to eat the biscuits . Just then ,
20:03the floodwater hits the nearby houses
20:06with another powerful wave . A house
20:08begins to sway due to the strong
20:10current of the water .
20:12Help us , throw some rope to us !
20:15Yes , yes , where is the rope ? Where is
20:17the rope ? Viraj begins to untie a rope
20:20kept on the balcony .
20:22What are you doing , Viraj ? No one will
20:24come to our fourth floor . Who knows ,
20:26they might just take over our house .
20:29You all come over to our roof . My house
20:31was built recently . It won't break down
20:34quickly .
20:34If it doesn't break , it will sink . It
20:37will sink very soon . Hey , before
20:40picking others up in your arms , you
20:41have to strengthen your own hands .
20:44If you can't help someone yourself ,
20:46then let whoever is doing it , do it .
20:48Son , throw the rope lying on your roof
20:50towards them . Bhargav throws the rope
20:52lying on the roof towards the people
20:54trapped in the broken house . Kant and
20:56his family somehow reach Bhargav's roof
20:58, dragging themselves through the water
21:00with the help of the rope .
21:02Thank you , son . You know , there is so
21:04much trash in this water . It is very
21:06filthy .
21:08Amidst the heavy rain , the day begins
21:10to fade slowly . By the afternoon ,
21:13Ashutosh announces through a mic from a
21:15helicopter flying in the sky .
21:18People trapped in the flood , listen
21:19carefully . There is even more water
21:22accumulated ahead of you . We will reach
21:24here after rescuing people trapped
21:27elsewhere . Until then , please have
21:29patience .
21:30The helicopter flies away .
21:33Some people used to be jealous seeing
21:35our four-story house . Today they will
21:37realize the value of our four-story
21:40house .
21:41Son , is there any way we can call your
21:43elder brother and sister-in-law to our
21:45fourth floor ? Who knows when their
21:47one-story house might sink into the
21:49water . Papa , Bhaiya and Bhabhi are
21:52standing on a one-story roof and we are
21:54on the fourth , there is a distance of
21:56three floors . How will such a long
21:58distance be covered , that too in this
21:59mountain water ?
22:00Papa ji , please don't worry about us .
22:03Nothing will happen to us .
22:04Alright , elder daughter-in-law , you eat
22:06something first and if possible , find a
22:08way to escape this rain . Bhargav and
22:10Seema cast their eyes around . They see
22:12a large plastic sheet floating in the
22:14water . Bhargav takes the sheet , ties it
22:16to the clothesline poles on the roof ,
22:18and creates a cover over himself and
22:20Seema . Both are now safe from the rain
22:22and eat bread with the people they gave
22:24shelter to on their roof .
22:27Some people have an urge to be good
22:28that eats them up and they don't even
22:30realize it ; they are struggling for
22:32food themselves and are feeding others .
22:34Don't expect help from us later . Vrinda
22:38just sits on the chair after saying
22:40this . Just then , due to the erosion
22:42from the flood water , a long crack
22:44appears in the four-story house .
22:46Oh Bhabhi , a crack has appeared in your
22:48four-story house too . Oh
22:50daughter-in-law , will our four-story
22:52house also fall prey to the flood ? No
22:55Mommy ji , don't say that . I don't want
22:57to die , that too by drowning in the
22:58flood . No , absolutely not . If we had
23:01kept our house as a two-story home ,
23:03maybe the floodwater wouldn't have
23:05caused it to crack . If your four-story
23:08house collapses in the flood today ,
23:09then Dad's lifelong hard work and our
23:11childhood memories will all be
23:12destroyed . And that too , just to
23:14maintain your false sense of pride .
23:16Oh God , please save me ! If you save me ,
23:18I promise I will never taunt my
23:20sister-in-law ever again . I don't want
23:22to drown in this flood .
23:25The sister-in-law , who loved showing
23:27off her four-story house , now has a
23:29parched throat in the rain , and the
23:31house starts crumbling into small
23:33pieces due to the flood . The entire
23:36family , including Vrinda and Nirmala ,
23:38starts trembling with fear . That is how
23:40the day passes . By the next morning ,
23:42the four-story house is left standing
23:43on just two opposing walls . Just then ,
23:46the rescue team arrives by helicopter .
23:49Officer , take us first ! Look , my
23:51four-story house is about to collapse .
23:53The floodwater is rising . Let us first
23:56save the people stranded on the roofs
23:58of one-story houses . Then we will come
24:00back for you . We must save that
24:02pregnant woman first .
24:04We are all safe here on the first floor
24:06. I am fine for now . Please take them
24:09first .
24:09Alright , fine . You people should come
24:11along . Please hurry !
24:12Yes , wait a minute . We need to get some
24:15essential items .
24:16Hurry up ! We have to rescue many more
24:19people . Vrinda and Nirmala go inside
24:21the house , open their cupboard , and
24:23start filling a bag with their jewelry
24:25and money .
24:26Hey , hurry up and come outside !
24:28Vrinda and Nirmala do not come out .
24:30Seeing the lack of time , the rescue
24:32team reaches Seema and Bhargav .
24:34They are taking too long . Until then ,
24:36you people please come .
24:37No , save the children and the elderly
24:39first . We are still safe here .
24:42The helicopter leaves after seating
24:44Ashutosh , Kant , Chintu , and the others .
24:48A while later , Vrinda and Nirmala come
24:49out with the bag of jewelry and money .
24:51Oh no , the officer has left . He left us
24:54behind !
24:55Brother and sister-in-law didn't go
24:57with the officer themselves ; they sent
24:58him to save us first . And you went
25:00inside to get jewelry and money . Just
25:03then , the floodwater strikes the back
25:05of the four-story house with a violent
25:07wave , and a long crack splits the house
25:09in two , causing the empty section to
25:11fall into the water .
25:14Oh , what is happening ? Our four-story
25:16house has been split right down the
25:18middle !
25:19Oh God , what do I do now ? How do I save
25:21my family now ? Why did you people go
25:23back inside ? My mind just isn't working
25:26at all .
25:26Ahh ! It hurts so much .
25:29Oh God , why didn't you go with the
25:31rescue team ? What do I do now ? Pull
25:33yourself together , Seema , pull yourself
25:34together .
25:35Forget about me for now , first throw
25:37that rope towards Mom and Dad's balcony
25:39. Brother-in-law , tie that rope to the
25:41balcony railing and come over to our
25:43roof . Who knows when the rest of your
25:46house might collapse too . Bhargav
25:49immediately throws the rope towards the
25:51balcony , and Viraj ties it to the
25:53railing . One by one , everyone slides
25:55across the rope to reach Seema and
25:57Bhargav's roof . In the blink of an eye ,
26:00the four-story house collapses like a
26:02paper boat in the flood , and the water
26:04level rises to knee-height on the
26:06single-story roofs .
26:08Oh God , elder brother and
26:09sister-in-law's single-story house
26:10drowned in the water too . The water
26:12reached knee-deep . If the rescue team
26:14doesn't arrive soon , what will happen
26:15to sister-in-law ? I was so proud of my
26:17four-story house . This flood has washed
26:19away all my pride along with it . If
26:21sister-in-law hadn't saved us by
26:23suggesting this on time , we would have
26:25drowned in the flood . Vrinda silently
26:28regrets her mistakes . Just then , the
26:31rescue team arrives again and carefully
26:33places Seema into the helicopter .
26:35Bhargav and the family members also
26:37board the helicopter , and it lands
26:38directly on the hospital rooftop .
26:41Bhargav and Viraj rush the writhing
26:43Seema inside the hospital for her
26:45delivery . Some time later , Seema gives
26:47birth to a beautiful baby girl in the
26:49hospital . Seema , today the greatest joy
26:52of our life is right before us . Our
26:54daughter .
26:55Elder sister-in-law , your daughter is
26:57very cute . She looks just like me , and
26:59I am her aunt , after all . That's why I
27:01will be the one to name her , won't I ?
27:03No , sister-in-law . My mother-in-law
27:05will name my daughter . It is said that
27:07a name given by elders is very
27:09fortunate . Seema , my daughter-in-law ,
27:11please forgive me . I always taunted you
27:13, thinking you were poor , and look at
27:14the younger daughter-in-law's wealth . I
27:16didn't even trust you . But today , for
27:18the first time , I have understood your
27:20heart . I am convinced that you couldn't
27:22have committed the theft . Younger
27:23daughter-in-law , look , there is still
27:25time , tell everyone the truth .
27:27Sister-in-law , please forgive me .
27:29Actually , I was the one who put my
27:30jewelry in your room that day . I wanted
27:33to remove you from the property and
27:34claim it all for myself . But today ,
27:37that same property was washed away in
27:39the flood like a straw .
27:40Vrinda , because of one lie of yours ,
27:42sister-in-law had to stay away from the
27:44family during her toughest times .
27:46Little sister-in-law , you made your
27:48elder sister-in-law a thief in
27:49everyone's eyes . It is thanks to the
27:51elder sister-in-law's nature that no
27:53one believed you , otherwise , she might
27:55not even be in front of our eyes today .
27:58And I also trusted your words without
28:00thinking , kept blaming the elder
28:02daughter-in-law , and kept supporting
28:04you . My fault is no less either . I know
28:08I did something very wrong . I apologize
28:10to all of you for my mistake .
28:12Sister-in-law , please forgive me . I
28:15forgive you ; that you admitted your
28:17mistake is a very big deal for me .
28:19Today I have been proven innocent in
28:21everyone's eyes , I don't want anything
28:24else . If I have found my family , then I
28:26have everything . From today , both the
28:28elder and younger daughter-in-law are
28:29my daughters-in-law . Now both will
28:31receive equal love and together they
28:33will take care of our family . After
28:36some time , the flood water in the city
28:38recedes . The entire family comes in
28:40front of their broken homes . Everywhere
28:42there is mud , dirt , and debris from the
28:44houses . The whole family together first
28:47cleans Seema's single-story house and
28:49takes shelter there until their new
28:51house is built . Brother , the house may
28:54be small , but after many days , it feels
28:56like I am in my own home because I am
28:58with you all . Soon everyone will get
29:01help from the government , and adding my
29:03own savings to that , I will rebuild the
29:06same two-story house that Dad had built
29:08for us two brothers . Exactly , this
29:11flood has taught us today that the
29:13number of stories in a house does not
29:15matter . What matters is whether the
29:18house is just a structure or if it has
29:20become a home through the love of the
29:22family .
29:23I promise that this time it will not
29:25just be a house , but a home . Where
29:27there will be no sisters-in-law rivalry
29:28, but two sisters who will shoulder
29:30their responsibilities . There will be
29:31no taunts , only fun and laughter . There
29:33will be no discrimination of rich or
29:34poor , but togetherness in happiness and
29:35sorrow . Our home will be more beautiful
29:37than heaven . After some time , the work
29:40to rebuild the four-story house begins .
29:42Currently , the entire family lives
29:44together in Seema and Bhargav's
29:45single-story house . A new house begins
29:48to rise in place of the broken one , and
29:50the family bonds become stronger than
29:52ever . In this way , the flood broke the
29:54family's house , but the same flood also
29:56ended the distance between the family
29:58members .
