Quotes 

• [from trailer] 

  Narayana : All the old traditions are dying out.

  Kalyani : But what is good should not die out.

  Narayana : And who will decide what is good and what is not?

  Kalyani : You!

• Kalyani : 'Learn to live like the lotus untouched by the filthy water it grows in.' Krishnaji said it in the Geeta

  Narayana : Krishna was a god. Not everyone can live like the lotus flower.

  Kalyani : Yes, they can.

• Shakuntala : Why are we widows sent here? There must be a reason for it.

  Narayana : One less mouth to feed. Four saris saved, one bed, and a corner is saved in the family home. There is no other reason you are here. Disguised as religion, it's just about money.

• Sadananda : Brahmins can sleep with whomever they want, and the women they sleep with are blessed.

  Narayana : Do you know Lord Ram told His brother, never to honor those Brahmins who interpret the Holy Texts for their own benefit?

  Sadananda : You're not a hero in an epic play ready to wage war for love.

  Narayana : You disgust me.
