| As incomplete as
the sun without rays... |
00:03:16.626 - 00:03:18.043 |
| And fragrance without breeze... |
00:03:19.001 - 00:03:20.751 |
| Is a ruler without
his Prime Minister. |
00:03:21.460 - 00:03:23.293 |
| The demise of our Prime Minister,
Peshwa Balaji Vishwanath... |
00:03:24.043 - 00:03:28.251 |
| Leaves us with a pressing question. |
00:03:29.293 - 00:03:31.168 |
| Who here considers himself
worthy enough to be the next Peshwa? |
00:03:31.585 - 00:03:36.543 |
| I would accept the post of Peshwa
with great honour, Your Majesty. |
00:03:38.168 - 00:03:42.418 |
| Your proposal pleases me,
Panth Pratinidhi. |
00:03:42.418 - 00:03:44.085 |
| Does the court approve? |
00:03:44.835 - 00:03:47.960 |
| Your Majesty... |
00:03:47.960 - 00:03:48.876 |
| The only man that can protect.. |
00:03:49.418 - 00:03:51.585 |
| ...the Maratha empire and preserve
the honour of the Peshwa's post... |
00:03:52.001 - 00:03:55.835 |
| is Bajirao! |
00:03:56.668 - 00:03:57.960 |
| Forgive me, Your Majesty
but this statement mocks the court. |
00:04:25.335 - 00:04:29.251 |
| You appear to be the
only one laughing, Minister. |
00:04:29.460 - 00:04:31.960 |
| Every man has the
right to prove his merit. |
00:04:32.626 - 00:04:35.168 |
| A son does not inherit his father's
wisdom simply by wearing his turban. |
00:04:35.376 - 00:04:39.001 |
| Even a sandalwood tree needs time
to age before it produces fragrance. |
00:04:39.585 - 00:04:43.626 |
| But even the youngest thorn can prick.
What say? |
00:04:43.626 - 00:04:46.751 |
| Never doubt the cheetah's speed,
the hawk's vision and Bajirao's sword... |
00:04:47.918 - 00:04:52.168 |
| They could outwit you at any moment! |
00:04:54.668 - 00:04:56.251 |
