The scene begins with sunrise. Against the backdrop, we see a middle-aged woman, in tattered clothes, shabby hair and a never gonna go cough is preparing some food by burning wood (and some food, in the process). Let’s just call her "Maa" or "A-N-S-B"* suddenly, two lanky and irritatingly perfect kids come running in the room. Lets call them "Munna" and "Munni" (innovation, indeed!) What follows is an extremely deep conversation amidst the three:
Munni (M1): Maa…. Khaana do, bhookh lagi hai
Munna (M2): haan maa, ab to haemin iskool bhi jaana hai
ANSB looks helplessly at her kids…..
ANSB: beta, ye lo doodh pi lo
M1 is drinking the milk, while M2 questions…
M2: Maa, mujhe doodh nahi peena…. Main isse kyun peeyu?
ANSB: beta, doodh pilo… bada aadmi banna hai na?!
M2: theek hai Maa… and drinks
Then both the kids run away to school… while ANSB is left behind to burn some more wood and food!
CUT TO isckool… M1 and M2 enter the premises... and the teacher calls out to them..
Teacher (a wannabe in a cotton saree, with thick black glasses and a birds nest for hair) : Raju… Rani… aao, sab ke liye praarthana gaao
Raju and Rani (our very own M1 and M2 in disguise) come ahead, and sing a beautiful bhajan in Lata Mangeshkar’s voice… (voice transplant, anyone?!) and all children sing along…
CUT TO bell ringing and school day ends!

pehela scene dekh ke toh aisa lagta hai ki shayad mera paisa vassool ho jayega...
just hoping ur ANSB doesn't get a makeover done :P
Cheerz,
ur filmy phrend
Purni
ANSB
If u have done it with riddhi then
i think DNSB - Do Nari Sabpe bhari :p
Else ENSB - Ek nari sabpe bhari :p
i think ... this one does not do justice to hindi cinema which is bereft with much bigger cliches than this ....
better still go to the hindi dubbies of telugu / tamil movies and u will find true art ...
indra the tiger .. must watch
