Chorus noise.
OMKAR/SWAROOP/ARUN/ALOK
Mera wala sabse upar hai

hai..
wooooo, weeeeeeeee
Music treatment. Parachutes give the joy of flying to the
boys.
They look at the sky, bright blue, parachutes go a little
far now.
(Time lapse shot, clouds traveling in speed.)
Arun softly throws a stone down the cliff, carefully watches
it falling, sea water hitting the rocks below.
ARUN
(trying to pick up the
binocular, to see through it)
hum log toh bahut unchai par hain..
Looks at swaroop through the binocular.
(Binocular view starts..)
SWAROOP
Haan.. Ramesh isi pahadi se gira
tha...
ALOK

SWAROOP
Haan
ARUN
Woh bichara aise hi mar gaya...
SWAROOP

Aruns P.O.V - Omkar enters a freezed frame, Swaroop and
Alok already present.
OMKAR
Mujhe aatma se darr lagta hai..

SWAROOP
Chup kar, darpok kahin ka
(...)
OMKAR
Maine suna hai ke jo accident me
marta hai uski aatma bhatakti hai.
SWAROOP
Paka mat.. kuch bhi bolta hai..
Moving binocular randomly at the sky. Spots an eagle. Lowers
down to the ground, sees a mysterious, distant boy running
towards them..
ARUN
Woh dekho ramesh ki aatma?
OMKAR
Kidhar...?
After watching Jatin coming towards them..
OMKAR
(Runs, exits frame)
Bhago.. woh pakadlega humko..
(Binocular view ends.)
SWAROOP
Arey yeh aatma nahi hai..
(Jatin , running, comes a little closer.)
ARUN
Yeh toh apna jatin hai
Omkar looks at jatin.
ALOK
(throwing a stone at omkar)
Idhar aa omkar...darpok
SWAROOP
(stands, throws a stone at
omkar.)(close up)
Maar isko
Swaroop and Alok , both throw some stones at omkar. Omkar
dodges these stones like an opera dancer. His elegant
movements will make anyone start admiring him. Jatin is
coming closer with every second.

ARUN
Kya hua jatin tu itna bhaag bhag ke
kyun aa raha hai?
All the friends gather. Jatin stops.
JATIN
(breathing heavily)
Arun, ... tere papa
ARUN

JATIN
...teri murgi kaatne wale hain
Arun runs as soon as he hears this, leaving the four
confused. After Arun reaches at a distance from them, they
start running.

[CONTINUOUS]
Arun is heading down the cliff.
ALOK
(Cupping his hands around his
mouth, shouts)
Arooooooooooooooon....
His voice resonates through the cliff.
Aloks voice is audible to arun while running, doesnt
respond. We see a parachute lying close to arun on a plant.
He notices it but doesnt pick.
Swaroop runs like a beast behind arun, faster among all, no
one can beat him.
Arun picks up a cycle out of the four cycles parked. As he
leaves , we see swaroop picking his cycle.
Rest of the friends also run down the cliff, parachute lying
close to them. They notice the parachute but dont pick.
Alok is last, umbrella is open backwards while he runs.
Arun is cycling , very fast, stunts like a professional in
the muddy, dusty path.
Eyes wet, remembers him and chicken in good times. Cycling
on the road. The sound of vehicles horn approaching him is
very high. Arun about to hit it, dodges it. Peddles the

[CONTINUOUS]
Arun is exhausted, enters the veranda of his house,a typical
village red tiled roof house. His chicken is tied to a thin
nylon rope, hanging upside down from a hook. It is alive and
a silver ring is seen shining on its one of the legs. There
is a knife kept alongside, washed, shiny and ready to use.
Bhaskar,middle aged, alcoholic, bearded, speaks hindi in a
semi marathi accent, father of arun, is in the toilet,
singing.
BHASKAR(O.S)

BHASKAR(O.S)

breath)

usko marne nahi dunga..

BHASKAR(O.S)
(Shouts)
chyaaiilaa.. daaru ko beech me kyun
la ra aee? ruk tereko batata main..
Sound of tap opening, water coming out and splashing of
water is audible from inside the toilet.
BHASKAR(O.S)
(whispering)
sala murgi ke liye lad raha hai
merese....
Arun waits for a second, biting his lips, looks at the
chicken hanging. Locks the toilet door. Rushes inside the
room, finds a small size cage.
BHASKAR(O.S)
(angry, banging the toilet
door)
mala lock kela...khol...aai
zhavadya tuzya... khol..tera murgi
khata hun abhi
Arun frees the chicken, puts it in the cage.
BHASKAR(O.S)
(constantly banging the door,
holding his anger)
acha khol apan baat karte hain....
khol...
Arun approaching towards the main gate exit. Bhaskar is
still shouting from inside the toilet. Arun runs out of the
house with the cage. Swaroop, on his cycle, has just
reached, stops.
ARUN
Utar utar..
SWAROOP
(getting off the cycle)
Par kya hua
Arun tries to attach the cage on the rear rack of swaroops
cycle.
ARUN
Murgi ko bacha ke rahega main..
He again rushes inside the house. Swaroop properly fixes the
cage. The chicken is resting.

SWAROOP
(looking at chicken, smiling)
Hum log tereko kuch nahi hone denge
Sound of breaking of a glass bottle is audible.
BHASKAR(O.S)
(shouting on top of his
vocals)
abhi tereko teri murgi ke saath
khaunga, madarchod.. tu ruk abhi
aaya main
Arun running, comes out of the house. Sits on the cycle.
ARUN

Gives a hi-5 to swaroop, starts cycling..
Bhaskar about to break the door,making the sound thak thak
thak
SWAROOP
Teri cycle leke aaun
Arun just about to disappear from the scene, raises his
hand, gives a thumbs up.
BHASKAR(O.S)
Tere ko nahi chhodunga..kuttee
Swaroop looks at the house, afraid of bhaskar, quickly
starts running towards aruns cycle. Bhaskar manages to come
out of the toilet.
BHASKAR
Gaya yeh abhi..
Disappointed, kneels down, tastes the liquor drops from some
glass pieces on the floor.
BHASKAR

CHICKEN
(O.S)
pak pak pak pak .......
Arun is in pain, gets up with the cycle,dusty face,dirty
clothes, checks the chicken (not necessary to show the
chicken), bhaskar parking the scooter, coming after him.
Arun tries to take off the cage but it is taking time.
Bhaskar has a wicked smile.
BHASKAR
Gayi teri murgi abhi..
Arun tries hard but efforts go in vain. Bhaskar crosses the
road, coming closer.
BHASKAR
..usko aise khaunga... abhi kidhar
jaayega tu...haan....(smiles)...
kidhar jaayega..
Bhaskar is about to catch him but arun manages to pull out
the cage from the cycle rack in the last minute and manages
to run. Bhaskar is chasing him.

BHASKAR
Sab khate hain murgi
ARUN
(angry, shouts)
Aap ko dikhta nahi hai kya.. usko
dard hota hai
Bhaskar kicks him again.
BHASKAR
Mera baap ban raha hai kya.. Yeh
sab mereko mat sikha.... chal abhi
.. tereko ghar saaf karna padega..
Tries to pick him up. Arun closes his eyes, is in no mood to
stand.
BHASKAR
Chal..?
Seeing no reaction, bhaskar holds his collar and drags him
on the salt pan from his right hand, aruns shirt is almost
getting off . We can see blood on the white ground coming
out from aruns left slipper. Bhaskar picks up the cage from
his left hand.
Arun looks and smiles at the chicken in the cage while
bhaskar drags him.
BHASKAR
Tere dada aur par dada sab murgi
khate the.. Sirf tu aur teri aai
nahi khate.. yeh hamara khana
hai..Main marte dam tak murgi
khaunga, bahut tahshty hoti hai..
tere ko bhi khake acha lagega....

BHASKAR
Aaj tune mereko bahut dukh diya
hai..
Arun is breathing heavily.
BHASKAR
Tereko khoon aa raha hai phir bhi
murgi ke liye itna mehnat kar raha
hai
Bhaskar tries to move his legs and body a bit in aruns
direction, trying to bluff him emotionally. Arun is staring
at bhaskar like a hawk, holding the cage in his hands ready
to run.
ARUN
Murgi khana chhod do na phir..
BHASKAR
Eekade ye ..tere ko samjhata hun
raja..
Arun staring, disagreeing him by moving his head, knows all
his games. Bhaskar looks in the opposite direction of the
track, looks at arun and starts running after him.
BHASKAR
eedhar aa bhosadikeeee..
Arun seeing him in no time starts running. Trains hooting is
audible but train is not visible. Arun tries to run outside
the track. In no time he stops with pain as his slipper gets
off the foot, stuck somewhere in the railway track . Bhaskar
is coming closer. Train sound is audible.
Bhaskar tries to snatch the cage. Arun is not letting him
take it. They are in a tug of war position. Train hoots.
Arun picks up mud and throws it on bhaskars face. Bhaskar
cannot see anything, struggling hard to open eyes. Arun
snatches the cage from him, picks up his shirt lying nearby,
puts on the blooded slipper, crosses tracks, runs in the
opposite direction to bhaskar. Train passes by.Bhaskar
struggling to see, throws some stones over the train in
aruns direction.
BHASKAR
Abhi ek murgi bacha lega, duniya me
karodon murgiyaan kaise
bachaega?...
Throws a stone..
12.
BHASKAR
(shouting)
Madarchod.....
A stone appears to hit the ground but arun is very far
running with cage and his shirt on his shoulder. Bhaskar
goes mad in the sound of the fast moving goods train.

ARUN
Haan
Arun checks out shirke from the binocular.
...
SWAROOP
Murgi ko mere ghar rakh de, mere
ghar woh safe rahegi
Seeing arun busy, swaroop joins arun.
SWAROOP
Door been de
Arun passes the binocular to swaroop, while shirke is
immersed in the paper. Shirke watches them. They pull back,
hiding, scared behind the tree. Shirke senses something
fishy. Again arun and swaroop show their faces and see a
standing shirke looking at them. He gets up leaves the paper
on the chair, starts walking towards them.
As he reaches the tree he finds no one. Cycles hidden behind
the bush, handle visible, shirke observes it but cannot make
out if it is a cycle.
SHIRKE
Kaun aahe eetha?...
They hide behind a bush near the tree. Shirke is very near
to them, about to see the cage. Arun hides it, adjusts the
cage, just in time, shirke puzzled. Shirke is seen going
again to his shop, a little far now from the boys. Swaroop
relaxes a bit. Arun looking at shirke with his binoculars.
SWAROOP
Woh toh bahut daravna aadmi hai,
bach gaye hum log
Arun smiles, turns to swaroop, gives him a hi5.
ARUN
Haan, chal ab tere ghar murgi ko
rakh dete hain..
SWAROOP
Haan.. main teri cycle chalata hun
ARUN
tu sach bol..Meri cycle teri cycle
se achi hai na?

SWAROOP

Both laugh. Shirke is very far, blurred , turning back to
see them talking.

The butcher gives the chicken in a black, thin polythene
bag.
SHIRKE
Waise mujhe butter chicken pasandh

BHASKAR
(giving money to butcher)
Wahi toh bana raha hun.. / hum

We see arun weeping and his friends sitting with him in the
background as camera follows shirke and bhaskar.

The same fish is suffocating to death in open air as water
puddle has dried up.

Arun is sitting with his mom, gayatri and bhaskar with lassi
and cold drinks at a table. Bhaskar all shaven up and looks
smart.
BHASKAR
Arun tujhe ice cream chahiye
ARUN
Nahi papa, bas pet bhar gaya hai
GAYATRI
Kitne baje pahuchna hai?
BHASKAR
Bas, time ho gaya hai, chalo chalte

Bhaskar gets up. Gayatri gets up.
GAYATRI(O.S)
Chal babu..late ho raha hai
ARUN
(sipping the left drink)
Haan aaya
Watches a family next to his table holding leg pieces in
their hands, eating , arun carefully observes the silver
ring in his hand.
Imagines how the butcher must have slit his chickens
throat. (blurred) And how it vibrates in the bucket of blood
and feathers. Sound similar to the bengali females creating
in a bengali wedding, rustic, irritating. The vibration
sound of chicken dying in the bucket is audible.
SMALL YOUNG GIRL, 8 YEARS OLD
Chicken tasty hai na?..
HER DAD
....haan bahut acha hai
Her dad bites the chicken piece like a hungry lion eating
its prey.
We see arun getting out of the restaurant, looking at the
goat mutton hanging in a shop.
