00:02 - Yesterday, I had a nice chat with my father.
00:07 He wanted to know about my last boyfriend
00:09 and I tried to explain him
00:10 how complicated relationships are nowadays.
00:13 But he just said,
00:14 if people would talk less, they'd be much happier.
00:18 - First time in India?
00:25 Did you come with your husband?
00:26 - Not at all.
00:27 - You are looking good.
00:28 I must say, beautiful as ever.
00:31 - This is Sultana's dream,
00:33 the terrible vengeance on men.
00:35 - A terrible revenge.
00:37 - Condemned to live in the place where they belong to.
00:41 - Here, we do the logical thing.
00:45 Instead of locking away women to keep them safe,
00:48 we lock up the hungry, ravening beasts.
00:50 - The world appears to them
00:54 as an inexhaustible box of surprises.
00:59 - I want to start tonight with its first recorded example
01:04 of a man telling a woman to shut up.
01:07 - Are you looking for Rukia's grave?
01:11 - I am fascinated by her.
01:13 Maybe you could help me.
01:14 - Nothing you can say can pull me away from you.
01:18 I love you.
01:19 - I love you.
01:20 - You are very quiet today.
01:35 - I am not too quiet.
