00:00He used to sell vegetables to the villagers in exchange of dairy products,
00:05and would further sell those dairy products to the people in the city.
00:10In the same village, there lived a woman named Ramya.
00:15Ramya was very innocent and gullible.
00:18One day, her neighbor Pragya comes to her door.
00:21Hey Ramya, you are looking sick day by day.
00:24Are you not eating on time?
00:27Thanks for asking dear, but that's not the case.
00:30I take care of my health.
00:32But unfortunately, I am not able to feed my cattle properly.
00:37It hasn't rained since many days.
00:39How could I grow grass for them without rain?
00:43I have to sell butter and milk every day to Saraiya.
00:47That's what I survive on.
00:50Hmm, but we can't help it. Destiny you see.
00:54By the way, I need some sugar. Can you please lend me some?
00:58Oh sure, give me a moment.
01:01Ramya goes to the kitchen to get some sugar.
01:05In the meantime, Pragya seizes the opportunity to grab some butter.
01:10It was very tasty.
01:12Pragya then takes the sugar and leaves for her home.
01:16Saraiya comes there next morning.
01:19Hey Ramya, here are the vegetables.
01:22Come on, grab quickly whatever you want. I have to rush.
01:27Why do you always rush Saraiya?
01:30I need some time to pick the right vegetables.
01:34Why are you always so skeptical?
01:36Why don't you trust me for once?
01:38These are all good. Pick any. They'll taste good.
01:43A kilo of eggplants please.
01:45Saraiya gives Ramya one kilo of eggplant as asked.
01:49In exchange, Ramya gives him a lot of butter.
01:52Next morning, Ramya goes to the village temple.
01:55There she finds the head of the village and talks to him.
01:59Hello sir, how are you?
02:02Hello Ramya, how are you? Is everything alright?
02:07Sir, everything is good but you see it hasn't rained since many days.
02:12I am unable to feed my cattle properly.
02:15Why don't you use the land which is beside my private pond?
02:19You will have enough water over there to grow the fodder.
02:22You can pay me later for that.
02:25That's a wonderful idea sir.
02:27That will solve all my problems. Thank you sir.
02:32That's my duty Ramya. I am the head of the village.
02:35It is my duty to take care of you all.
02:37Well, all the best to you.
02:40You are very kind sir. I am indebted to you.
02:43Right from that day, Ramya starts growing grass on the field beside the pond.
02:48It takes some time for the grass to grow.
02:50But once it grows, she starts feeding her cattle.
02:54The cattle start giving a lot of milk.
02:57She could make really amazing butter out of it.
03:00She starts selling the same to Saraiya.
03:03Oh wow Ramya, your business seems to be going very well.
03:07Everyone in the city demands only your milk.
03:10Everyone in the city demands only your milk and butter.
03:15Oh sure Saraiya, here you go, some more milk.
03:19I wish I was also lucky enough to make that much of money.
03:25Don't worry Saraiya, even your business will rise very soon.
03:30Saraiya nods to Ramya's words.
03:33But deep inside, he was very jealous of her success.
03:37Saraiya's only objective now was to cause harm to Ramya's business.
03:42So he decides to buy the cattle and hence reaches Ramya's place to talk to her.
03:48Ramya greets him as usual, not knowing what his real intentions were.
03:54Hello Saraiya, what brings you so early today?
03:57I haven't even milked yet, nor is the butter ready.
04:01It's not about milk Ramya, I am here with a business deal.
04:05Would you like to sell your cattle for a good amount of money?
04:09Oh no Saraiya, what are you even talking about?
04:13I can never sell them.
04:16How can you not sell your cattle?
04:18You will have to sell them someday.
04:22They are my only family, please.
04:25Alright, why are you crying, why are you shedding tears?
04:29What did I even ask for?
04:31Why would anyone cry so much only for their cattle? Relax.
04:36Saying so, Saraiya leaves from there.
04:39Ramya gets very emotional and holds her cattle.
04:43A few days passes like that.
04:45Ramya earns very good profits by selling milk and butter.
04:49Saraiya's jealousy and hatred for her success increases.
04:54He is constantly blaming Ramya for this.
04:56So he decides to meet the head of the village to seek justice.
05:00Hello Saraiya, why do you look worried?
05:03What happened? Tell me.
05:05Sir, I am here to seek justice.
05:08You must give me justice.
05:10Since quite many days, Ramya has been giving me
05:13less butter in exchange of vegetables.
05:16Upon hearing Saraiya's plea, the landlord immediately summons Ramya.
05:21Hello sir.
05:22You are accused of cheating Saraiya.
05:25I have heard that you are not giving him sufficient butter
05:28in exchange of vegetables. Is that true?
05:31Yes, that's true.
05:33Saraiya, let Ramya speak.
05:36Ramya, you should tell me the truth.
05:38If you lie, I will give you a bigger punishment.
05:41Remember that. Go on now.
05:44I have been fooled by her. That was unjust.
05:48You have to compensate.
05:49Saraiya, rest assured.
05:51I will surely give you justice.
05:53But let Ramya speak first.
05:55Ramya, tell me the truth.
05:57Honestly, I don't even have weighing stones.
06:00I simply weigh in the same weighing basket
06:03that Saraiya gives me vegetables in.
06:05For example, if he gives me a kilo of eggplant,
06:09I give him the very same quantity of my butter.
06:12I thought that's enough for him.
06:14Upon hearing Ramya's side of the story,
06:17the landlord starts thinking.
06:19Saraiya, on the other hand, is extremely worried
06:22because he feels he will now be exposed.
06:25Saraiya, from what I hear,
06:28it looks like Ramya has been cheated and not you.
06:31In fact, you are the one who should be punished here
06:34and she should be given justice.
06:36Not you. You should be punished.
06:39Saraiya, Ramya is right.
06:41She should be given justice.
06:43Not you. You should be severely punished
06:46for wasting everybody's time.
06:48I am so sorry sir.
06:51I got very jealous of Ramya's success.
06:54Please forgive me sir.
06:57Sir, I request you to not to punish Saraiya.
07:01He is a nice man. Please sir.
07:04Oh Ramya, you are so kind hearted.
07:07I cheated you for so many days,
07:09yet you want to save me.
07:14Saraiya, you need to change your approach right away.
07:18You can never climb the stairs of success by cheating others.
07:22Instead, you should always try to help each other
07:25in the journey of success.
07:27Always strive to become a good person, Saraiya.
07:30Understood sir.
07:32Ramya, your innocence and honesty saved you
07:36and the justice prevailed.
