He speaks then of his son who got a TB (Tuberculosis) in his bone and was recovering in the hospital and because of shortage of money, they couldn’t get his treatment done, and his wife got tension and stress of her son’s situation and died with those worries. After his wife’s demise, he used to take care of his baby girls and whenever his daughter asks about her mother, he felt too much hurt and felt pain in his heart. He says that every morning, he wakes up and thanks God for giving him whatever situation he is in and feels content. Sonali then asks him about his debts, he answers around 1.5 Lakhs INR which he took for his son’s health expenses. She then informs him about the celebrity that comes on the show to fulfill the dreams of a common man. Furthermore, whatever the celebrity earns on a day will be multiplied by 100 and will be given to him.
Sooner, she speaks that though Jamat Ali’s dreams are still wounded but in this world we have balm for every wound, every misdirected destiny (Muqaddar) has its own fate (Naseeb). She speaks that a well-known actor from India has pledged to help Jammat Ali. She then welcomes Ronit Roy on stage (Ala Re Ala song playing) and hugs Sonali and Jamat Ali. She refers to him as TV and film actor, big entrepreneur and today he has to do some other role which he might never did and that is of Jamat Ali. Ronit speaks that society has given him so much and its time to give it back. She first shows him an AV of Jamat Ali’s life. Jamat Ali is shown to pray and works as a cosmetic/bangles seller and goes to different villages (2 to 3) and with this takes care of his family’s livelihood. He has already performed the marriage of his daughters and the son is handicapped who cannot run;walk;hold weights and hence cannot work. In his family, he has two sons and three daughters out of which two are married, So now he alone works and supports his four member family. He is fulfilling the duty of being a father. His son speaks of working and supporting for his father and family. Jamat Ali says that at the end he needs some cloth and 2 feet land, and nothing else (materialistic benefits) matters, and even this is not sure.
Ronit and Sonali are in a pensive mood after listening to Jamat Ali’s words, and Ronit speaks that he is right as at the end only what remains is 2-feet cloth and land and only if God wills. He asks about his age and Jamat Ali responds 60-years and says that once his wife died he got severely hurt and refers the women (wife) as the queen of the house. And even the women brings good luck to the house and if she participates in some thing that will bring wealth and refers the women as Lakshmi. He speaks that because of tension and sadness he came older much sooner, and suggests that his love for his wife was unparallel and he only loves her. The audience applauds on his words. Sonali asks him whether he wants to love only once and only one wife which he continued to hold on with that belief until now.
Ronit learns that Jamat Ali works by selling his cosmetic things by going to different village and earns around 70 INR per day and cycles around 10-12 kms. Sonali speaks with Ronit, and informs him that now he has to work like a cosmetics seller like Jamat Ali, and whatever he earns the show will multiply that amount by 100 times and give it to him. Ronit shares a personal experience when he was just worried about his own living and once he realized many things in life, now its the time to give it back to the society. He suggests the viewers seeing him that even if you give a small portion from your income and cites an example of giving 10 paise out of 10 INR which is 1 % of your income then we don’t need much support from the government and only our population needs to aware of the big good they can do.
