This film was powerful enough that I managed to follow it (to some extent) without subtitles. But I have some questions.
1) What's going on when Manjunatha puts his wife's hand on his head in the scene at the son's deathbed before the banquet? I get that the decision is to serve the banquet regardless as an act of dharma. But what is going on in the dialogue here?
2) Who's the character talking to Shiva shortly before the death of the main Manjunatha? He gives Shiva a rope with a noose in it? What is happening there?
Thanks for any help that someone can give me.
