Ek Mahanayak – Dr. B.R. Ambedkar 15th December 2020 Written Episode
Bhima asks Rani’s mother to either tell them why Seth ji and Mangesh are reluctant to drink it or drink it herself. You can otherwise tell us what was inside? Rani also asks her the same question. Her mother loses her cool. It was poison! You are up to no good anyways. She walks away in a huff followed by Dhansukhlal and Mangesh.
Bhimbai tells Rani not to cry. You should not get upset about some things. Rani says we can feel happy after thinking about other things. She tells Bhima she has become a part of his community now. I feel great and light now. Bala smiles. Bhimbai and Meera take her inside.
Maharaj says you failed in this plan as well. One must give and take sacrifice! When will you understand? Rani’s mother requests him to guide them. He says I told you the destination but you must pave your own way. What good are you to be from upper community when a kid from lower community can understand your intentions? Bhima says I knew you would be teaching this only. You are forcing a mother to hurt her own kid and forcing other people, who should go to their jobs, are listening to your pravachans. Maharaj warns him that he keeps coming here unannounced and might disappear one day if he wont stop showing here. Bhima says you are playing with people’s feelings and faith. they think you are the representative of God so they follow you blindly. They will break the walls created by you the day they will understand the truth. You wont be able to stop them and us from uniting them. This society will become one big home just like Rani has become a part of our community now. Maharaj tells him not to give her example. She wont help you fulfil your dreams. You will be stomped down with her. Bhima says I will pass on my dreams to people. It isn’t so easy to stomp us. We can also sacrifice our lives for the safety of our families like your blind followers! He leaves.
Bala is thinking about his first meeting with Rani and all that has happened since then. Ram ji asks him to sleep. He sits next to him as Bala asks him if one can support someone for life without giving a name to the relation. Ram ji nods. Bala says I want to support Rani as she is all alone. Aayi says that love is demanding and feelings in looking after someone. I wont ask for anything. I will just take care of her. She was going to commit suicide when I met her for the first time. I saved her life. People get attached there. Ram ji tells him not to complicate things. Think with a cool mind. We have never stopped anyone from taking care of people. Bhimbai has overheard their convo. She tells Bala to give milk to Rani. I have mixed the herbs you had crushed for her. There is nothing wrong in doing this. Why will your Baba or I stop you from looking after someone? Bala takes the glass and goes.
Rani is sitting by the window quietly. Bala asks her what she is doing. Rani says I was looking at the outside world. It has become heartless for me. I have no one to call my own there. Bala says you have gained many people in this world. She gives his example. Bala offers her milk. There is no poison in it. She says I will still drink it and accepts the glass from him. They hear some noise. Bala goes outside and notices a guy who is trying to escape. Bala manages to catch hold of him. He takes him to the courtyard. Who are you? The guy tells them that he is Rani’s lover, Sandesh. Everyone is taken aback. Sandesh says I came to take her with me when I found out that she is living here with you. Rani gets emotional. You are safe? Where were you till now? Why dint you come that day? He shares that villagers caught hold of him when he was coming to meet her. They threw me in the river. I escaped somehow. She finds his behaviour odd when she moves closer. Let’s go away. He refuses to take her with him. You have changed completely. I loved a different Rani. She gets confused. He says you may have been a widow but you were from my caste only. You have ruined your dharma by living here! He looks pointedly at Bala. Who is he? Do you love him now? She tells him to think before saying anything. I am alive today because of him! People from our caste have tried to kill me many times. Caste, dharma is a sham! He tells her they cannot compromise with everything. Bala says they don’t matter if the love is true. Sandesh insists that it does and walks away. Rani calls out after him but in vain. Bhima reasons that he wont stop if he does not want to come back. Bala feels bad for her. Mangesh has seen everything.
Mangesh and Dhansukhlal tell Maharaj everything. Maharaj tells them to catch him. He is the biggest sinner here. They agree. Maharaj thinks he should be punished for going against dharma.
Bhimbai comforts Rani. He would have learnt it from his dharma and society that people stay away even from the shadows of people from the lower community. Rani says I was being selfish when I decided to not remain a widow anymore but I was sure his love will be stronger than everything else. I was wrong! He also gave importance to dharma and caste over love! Meera says this is the sad reality of life. People are ready to give up anything because of caste and dharma. Rani nods. I have nothing left. I will never be happy! Bala suggests speaking to Sandesh. You can get yourself purified later. Your caste will be same then. He leaves. Ram ji and Bhima are watching everything from outside. Bhima asks his Baba why a lover could go against the dharma made for widows but cannot go against caste. He could battle one thought process but he has problem with Rani Didi living with us and decided to leave her! How can a guy decide who he wants to support?
