2:21:00
And you villagers had better listen
to this letter from Gabbar, too!
2:21:07
Addressed to the people of Ramgarh,
it says, "Look at the..."
2:21:11
"consequences of challenging me
at the Thakur's instigation"
2:21:17
"Should you folks still
not mend your ways..."
2:21:20
"death shall perform its ugly dance
in every courtyard of Ramgarh!"
2:21:24
"Should you care for the lives
of your family and children..."
2:21:29
"...then before sunrise tomorrow..."
2:21:32
"hand over the Thakur's men
to me, at the old hillock"
2:21:37
He has signed it off as "Gabbar
Singh, chief of the bandits."
2:21:41
How could you land us in such
a grave danger, Thakur!
2:21:56
To lead an honorable life, we will
have to pay a price, Dinanath.
2:22:04
And we can pay the bandits
with food-grains for our lives.
2:22:09
We can't pay them with
our children's lives!
2:22:12
We're farmers, after all.
We are not soldiers.
2:22:15
You are right, Shankar.
We are indeed farmers.
2:22:20
This has been a country
of farmers for many ages.
2:22:23
But whenever someone evil has
shown aggressive designs...
2:22:27
...by God, it was farmers who
melted their ploughs into swords!
2:22:34
It's not the blood of cowards
that flows in our veins! No!
2:22:40
But how is violence and bloodshed
going to help?
2:22:44
Non-violence has its place, too.
2:22:47
I do believe in non-violence.
2:22:50
But it won't be an
act of non-violence...
2:22:52
...to grovel before
a wicked and evil man!
2:22:55
It's nothing but cowardliness!
Plain spinelessness!
2:22:57
Those who don't bow
are broken down, Thakur!
