FADE IN:
1. EXT. / CITY SCHOOL FIELD / DAY
One CAR comes and stops near the CITY SCHOOL. AABA (age 65, an idealistic man) comes out of it. There are two people for his welcome. One is a teacher
and another is the HEADMASTER of that school.
HEADMASTER
Ya! Ya! Aabasaheb ya! Tumachich vat baghat hoto….
AABA
Maaf kara….yayla thoda ushir jhala…
HEADMASTER
Kahi harkat nahi Aabasaheb, tumhi yeta hech mothe aahe aamachyasathi. Tumacha aadhar
hich aamachi taqat aahe. Aaj tumachya sahayyatunach aamhi evadhi mothya shaleche swapna purn karu shakalo…
AABA
He bagha…changalya kamasathi mi nehami tumachyasobat aahe.
HEADMASTER
Dhanyavad Aaba! Ya….aat jauya…
CUT TO:
2. INT. / CLASSROOM – CONTINUOUS
We can see some 10 students are there in a class. The semester exam is
going on. One teacher is overlooking them. Both Headmaster and Aaba enter into the room. From Aaba’s point of view, all students are writing their answers. Suddenly
Aaba looks at one man, SHIVAJI (age 28, good man) who is writing his exam paper. Aaba is little confused about SHIVAJI so he asks to the Headmaster.
AABA
Ithe mothehi shikatat ka?
HEADMASTER Mothe mhanaje?
Aaba shows his finger in SHIVAJI’S direction.
AABA
Te bagha tikade…te jara mothe nahi ka vatat aahet?

Headmaster looks there and finds SHIVAJI. He moves to Aaba.
HEADMASTER
Aaba…tumache mhanane agadi barobar aahe pan
toh swatacha paper lihit nahiye….jara tyacha bajula bagha…
Aaba walks a step ahead and looks at Shivaji’s left side. There is one physically handicapped girl SMITA (age 17). She cannot write so Shivaji is
helping her.
HEADMASTER (cont’d)
….tyachya bajula asalelya tya apang mulicha toh paper aahe…pan ti lihu shakat nahi mhanun
toh tila madat karatoy…
AABA
Pan he kase kaay?
HEADMASTER Mi tumhala sangato ya….
Both Aaba and Headmaster walk out.

3. INT. / HEADMASTER’S OFFICE / DAY
Aaba and Headmaster both are in Headmaster’s office. Aaba sitting on a chair sipping tea and Headmaster is talking with him.
HEADMASTER

We can see Aaba’s close look. He is impressed.
AABA

We can see pleasant smile on Aaba’s face.

9. EXT. / VILLAGE FIELD / ROAD / DAY
Aaba’s car is on its way to Aaba’s home. Suddenly one car from the village comes toward them and stops near their car. Aaba’s car also stops. Both the driver and SHIVAJI are looking at them. SAMPATH PATIL (age 38, village baddy) is in that car with his driver. SAMPATH looks at the unknown face of SHIVAJI and asks to the driver of Aaba’s car.
SAMPATH
Kaay re…kon hayre pavhana? Kadhi baghitale nahi gavat….
DRIVER

SAMPATH

We see SAMPATH is doing NAMASKARA to SHIVAJI. SHIVAJI also follows that.

Sampath’s car starts and moves away. Aaba’s car also runs on its way.
CUT TO:
Aaba’s car comes and stops near Aaba’s house. Shivaji comes out of it and for his welcome Aaba is there. With him HARI (Young villager, good man) is there.
AABA
Ya….ya Shivaji…swagat aahe tumache….ithe aalyabaddal kharokhar dhanyavad….

The driver who is standing there, then comes near to Aaba and tells him about SAMPATH.
DRIVER

11. INT. / SHIVAJI’S ROOM / DAY
HARI and SHIVAJI enter into the room. SHIVAJI is looking at that whole room. Room is totally in bad position; seems like no one stayed there from long time.
Only a ray of sun light is coming from that old glass window. There is so
much dust on that window, on CUPBOARD, on CHAIRS and TABLE. HARI is talking with SHIVAJI.
HARI
Room tasa changala aahe pan thode kaam karave lagel….
SHIVAJI

CUT TO:
12. EXT. / VILLAGE FIELD / DAY
We can see in a village field under a big tree SHIVAJI and AABA are positioned at a table. Some villagers are in front of them. Men attired in typical ghati look of white dhotar- kurta and a towel kind of cloth fixed on their head. HARI is also one of them. SAMPATH PATIL is not there. SHIVAJI once looks at them and stands up.
SHIVAJI
Namaskar! Tumhi sarva ithe aalyabaddal dhanyavad! Majhe naav SHIVAJI…SHIVAJI BHOSALE! Mi shikshak

pathvalet tar tyannahi parat ekada shikshanachi sandhi milel…. tumhala kaay vaatate? Bare…mala agodar he saanga ki kiti jananna shala suru vhavi ase vaatate?
No villager responses to this. We see a strange look of SHIVAJI. He smiles; looks at AABA and then moves to the villagers.
SHIVAJI
Some villagers speak.

SHIVAJI is overwhelmed after hearing this all. He looks at Aaba.
SHIVAJI
Hya ashikshitankadun aaj khup kahi shikalo….
SHIVAJI now turns to the villagers.
SHIVAJI

All children’s are in a normal dress-up. Everyone is quiet, empty handed and looking at SHIVAJI who is in front of them; standing near the table.
