00:00Who is the real mother?
00:08This happened somewhere in India long, long ago.
00:12A young mother had to travel with her baby son to a distant village.
00:17For that, she needed to cross a beautiful forest.
00:21The mother was happy for her baby seemed to delight in hearing the birds sing.
00:27He laughed as he tried to play with the butterflies that fluttered around him
00:31and he seemed to love the fragrance of the flowers his mother gave him to hold.
00:37The mother walked a long time until they came to a lake.
00:42The water of the lake was a sparkling blue.
00:46It looked so cool and refreshing that the mother decided to take a small dip.
00:52Leaving her baby on a tuft of soft grass on the bank,
00:57she proceeded to take a small quick swim.
01:01As the mother bathed, she heard a sound.
01:05Do you mind, my dear, if I play with your child till you come out of the water?
01:11The mother saw another young woman looking fondly at her baby.
01:16She smiled.
01:18Of course you can play with him.
01:22So sweet! Good baby! Nice baby!
01:29Now that I am here, you don't worry, take your time and enjoy your bath.
01:35Hearing her little one laugh and play, the mother was pacified
01:40and she decided to swim just a few moments longer.
01:49Why can't I hear them? My baby!
01:54Wait! Where are you taking her? Wait!
01:58The mother hurried out of the water
02:02and ran behind the woman when she got to her.
02:05Wait a minute! Where are you taking my child?
02:09Your child? This is my baby! So, now get away from here!
02:15How dare you! Give me back my child!
02:19Thief! Baby snatcher! Kidnapper! Let go of my child!
02:25A few tribal people who lived in the forest were passing by.
02:29They heard the ruckus and got there.
02:36What is the matter?
02:38Help me! Help me! Please help me!
02:41She is taking my baby away! Please help me!
02:45She is lying! The child is mine!
02:49She is trying to steal my baby from me!
02:55Please don't listen to her lies!
02:59The people looked at each other confused.
03:02They could not make out which of the two women was saying the truth
03:06and which of them was lying.
03:11Finally, one of them stepped ahead.
03:15There is only one way to settle the matter.
03:18We must take you to our chief.
03:21Why? I am telling you this baby is mine!
03:26A-ha-ha-ha! Why won't you listen to me?
03:32All of you are baby thieves, right?
03:37None of us are thieves, but it is clear that one of you is,
03:42and that too in our forest.
03:45So we cannot let any of you go till this matter is settled.
03:49Now, come with us.
03:51The people took the women through the winding paths in the forest
03:55till they reached a curious cave.
03:58They spoke to the guards in a curious language.
04:02They entered a dark cave.
04:06They could see nothing until suddenly,
04:09as though appearing through the darkness like a ghost,
04:12they saw the chief standing there before them.
04:21Huka, which of you is the mother?
04:27I am! I am!
04:30Hmm. Shula!
04:45Now, in the world of the jungle, might is right.
04:49The baby is here.
04:51One of you will hold the baby's head,
04:54and the other will hold the baby's legs,
04:57and both of you will pull.
04:59Let us see which of you is mightier.
05:05Both the ladies kneeled next to the child.
05:08The baby looked at the real mother and smiled.
05:12He reached out to her and curled his little hand around her finger.
05:16The mother cried and gently stroked her child.
05:20Suddenly, there were the sounds of drums.
05:24Let the contest begin!
05:28As soon as the witch heard this,
05:30she pulled the baby's legs really hard,
05:33while the real mother was only looking fondly at her son.
05:37When his legs were pulled, the child started crying.
05:40The real mother was horrified.
05:43Stop! Stop! I give up!
05:45I don't want to be a part of this contest!
05:47Please, stop!
05:51I won! I won!
05:53The child is mine!
05:59Return the child to his real mother.
06:03But I won!
06:05No, you didn't.
06:07You only revealed that you are the thief,
06:10and that she is the real mother.
06:13You are being unfair!
06:16You had said that in the jungle, might is right,
06:19and I pulled the child towards me.
06:22Yes, I did say might is right.
06:25But I meant the might of motherhood.
06:29She was willing to give up her child
06:32just to ensure no pain was caused to him.
06:36Only the real mother could have sacrificed like this.
06:44Here is your child, my lady.
06:47Thank you! Thank you so much!
06:53I know who you are.
06:55If I ever see you in our forest again...
07:01Fine! Fine, Raj! Fine!
07:05Someday I will be able to get the better of you!
07:09Someday!
07:12Whether or not the witch ever returned to the forest,
07:15we do not know.
07:17But it is clear that even if she did,
07:20she would never be able to win against the might
07:23of the genuine, unconditional love of a mother.
