Barroz: Guardian of Treasures (2024)

[bunniefuu]

In refrain, your glories..

Generations will remember

Elder Barroz

Your deeds, your memories

When the Da Gammas set sail

You hid their treasure

and swore to defend it

Without reward or praise

So that one day you'd hand it over

to your lord's heirs

You were a man of your word,

you were a protective shield

Standing watch over the waves,

you proved your worth

This is a legend that speaks

Of loyalty and love

You gave your life

and the lives of your men

Who in the bottom

of the sea with longing

Who in the bottom

of the sea with longing

Their spirits will share with you

A sea full of freedom!

Elder Barroz

Let his spirit

become a faithful ghost, Barroz

Barroz, that's me

Barroz, the trusted guardian of

Lord da Gama's treasure

Mahagaga..!

A great salute from the Voodoo tradition

that has existed beyond the horizon...

...across the Arabian Sea, in the African

forests, then, now, and forever

What kind of being are you?

I know that you have no clue about

who you are or who I am

But thats okay; let me explain

As I mentioned before, I am the final link

in the African ritual tradition

You can call me Voodoo

Hmm..! Voo.. doo

Listen, this is the tome of the

treasures law..

According to this it is clear you

are not of the native folk here

Migrant..! You were the youngest sl*ve

brought from Malabar by the Portuguese

Through your loyalty and honesty,

you became Lord da Gama's most trusted

Barroz, the guardian of

Lord da Gama's treasure

Yes, thats who you are- Barroz

The most loyal Barroz..

Another salute to that loyalty..

But forget not..

You may be mighty in appearance..

But I, along with this tome,

will guide you. That is the law !

It seems like a bad omen

This day marks the final

phase of the lunar eclipse

The tome warns the treasure may be

in peril before the eclipse ends

Barroz...

Whats all this commotion?

- Barroz, pick up your weapon

Pick up the weapon, Barroz..

Oh, not again! That cursed drinking habit!

Just so you know, when you drink; it's

your job to guard the treasure, not mine

Please come down, Barroz..

What kind of drinking is this?

Get your feet steady, Barroz.

Youve given your word to Lord da Gama.

Remember that and act right

Go hide some where

Are you trailing me?

Madam Teresa's pickle jars...

Wine bottles..

Isnt this the palace cellar?

Who are these guys to break in?

Lord da Gama..my beloved Lord ..

The treasure chests he entrusted to me..

Barroz, what are you doing here?

Who are these people, Barroz?

What a smell..!

Oh, Barroz, youre at it again

What a foul smell !

Oh..jewels !

Precious!

Ew..would you please stop this?

Isabella's earrings

Mendossa

- Mendossa.?

Wine?

Massavana..!

- Massavana?

They have come here to steal

Go after themdon't just stand here, go

Massavana..

- Spider

Who's that ?

Let me take a closer look..

Mendossa! Whats wrong?

What devil is this ?

Massavana..

Oh.. close shave !

Its all because of that

Masikaro witchcraft

Hey, Barroz.. muah..

Mendossa..

Stay there..

Barroz, don't k*ll,

Just scare them off

Escape.. run..! What the hell?

Scaring me..

What is this? A specter horse?

Mendossa.. What is this?

Come on..escape..

The ghost is set free...

It's Borroz, the ghost...

Barroz.. Run.... Run..

Mahagaga.. it's a miracle

The page of the tome

has turned again

Look, your shackle has tightened again

This means the tome doesnt

allow the treasure- guard to leave

It's good you let those thieves

flee with their lives

They'll go out, spread word about you,

and scare the townsfolk

People will be scared,

according to the tome

Why did they flee so readily?

Huh, dont you get it?

Its the fear of the ghost

Heh.. which ghost?

- That's the secret you do not know

Come on..

Come, have a look..

Hurry up..

Now have a look

Look..

You can't see anything, right?

Barroz..

Betraying the demons, become a

treasure-guarding ghost !

Barroz..

The most trusted Barroz..

- Park the car and wait for me ..

- OK, ma'am

Here today in Goa, a few hours

from now opens the global investor's meet

Let's listen to to

Cheng h* of Maccau holdings

I think, the proposed Casino has all the

potential to make Goa the Vegas of India

Welcome. Good morning, Madam

This is for you.. thank you..

- Please

Susan Mathew, 58, retired diplomat

currently settled in Goa

Security, clear ..please come

- Thank you Subbu..

Yes..

- Hey look..

Look, Im not on any official trip

A family friend is coming

- I am here to receive him, that's it

Thank you..

But securitys still my responsibility

Total headache

A small mistake could ruin it..

Sorry, ma'am. Sneezing is

nature's call too, right?

It's alright..Don't you know him, Subbu?

He is Mr. Mendossa

He's the curator of the da Gama mansion

I know even his great great

grand father Mendossa

He was the store- keeper of da Gama

- Exactly, in 1633

But he was caught red-handed

stealing an earring from the treasure trove

He must be part of the

succeeding generations

Which means the thief

has been made the keeper

Be careful with this guy..

- What is this, Subbu?

The first casino in India is

about to materialize here

It should be owned by an Indian company,

not any foreign business groups

That is the sun shines dreams and goals..

When my husband and I were part of the

Indian diplomatic mission in London..

Ron came to England for his studies,

and we were his local guardians

Oh.. I see

So, we made it in time...

We'll leave in five days, OK?

OK, Sir..

- Yeah

- Hey..

- Hey Ron

Hi, Susan auntie..

- I'm so happy, you are smiling

That means my attempt to smile

paid off

Ron... This is S P. Subrahmanyam, CSO

- Hi, how are you doing?

All is well - Ron Madhav

- Nice to meet you

Where is Isa?

- Oh.. Isa ? Hey Isa ...

The g*ng wont be the same without you

When are you back?

Let us know the date

I don't want to hear anything

If you act like you regret it, then your

dad and the Principal might fall for it...

Please come back..

Hear Mr. Ron Madhav..

This is to put on record that

your daughter Isa Ron...

Enough..

You..

- Isa, come on..

- Isa..

Isa Ron is hereby suspended pending

investigation

From Darjeeling International School

Enclosed here with the fact sheet

detailing our decision

sorry..

But I don't blame you, Mr. Ron

She needs a mother

Oh.. my head shaft is turning..

Heri bibilava has started turning

The snakes of Heri Bibilava

have begun to move

The heir to the treasure has arrived

If thats the case, then...

Three- Eight- Eight

No.. sorry, Nine

It's Three- Eight- Nine

This day marks the full moon

in its lunar course

For you and me, the time has

come to begin our quest

Light... blue light...

the glow of tears

shed through Barroz's endless wait...

.. this light will now guide

the way for the heir

Say NO to the casino

What's the problem ?

Ron, Its been ongoing for months, relax

As you can see,

a large crowd has gathered here

They have one demand, that

the casino project be stopped

What do you thinkwill there be a

solution or not? There has to be one...

Dont they see the job opportunities

a casino would bring?

These damn anti socials won't see that

They are residents of the nearby slums

With development, people will need to

make some sacrifices

"NO casino, NO"

Get out of here..you

"No casino, No"

Hello, open the window, sister

- OK

Isa, do not open the window

- Isa

Hello..

- Please take this notice, sister

Didn't I say not to open the window?

You dont obey, do you?

What are you doing here?

Sister, youre Malayalees, right?

- Isa, No - Please read it..

Hey..you, leave.. run..

Smart boy..

Have fun..

Say no to casino !

Look, appreciation for talk-back

You know, this is how she is

Yes ..

Come

Be careful..

Welcome ma'am

- Not me, they're the guests

Thank you..

- Thank you..

Come on, ma'am

- Thank you

Hi..Susane..

- Aha, wow..!

Oh.. you're here ? '

- It's our job, no?

Please meet Ron; This's D' Couza

- Hi.. Nice to meet you

He's from intelligence.. and

this is Isa, his daughter

They have come for the auction, so..

See you..

All the best, OK..

- Good to meet you- Thank you..

Say cheese !

The story dates back to the period

when the Portuguese Empire in India

.. was at the height of its glory

In its capital, Goa, they built

magnificent forts, cathedrals and..

Keep it down..

.. with Bougainvillea-strewn

verandas..

.. gardens with cashew trees

and rice fields

Many Portuguese nobles settled in Goa..

.. and their lavish households had

Africans and Indians as servants

The city was called Goa Dorado

meaning, golden Goa

No wonder, the city attracted the envy

of the newly arrived Dutch

.. the powerful Marathas, and other

neighboring kingdoms as well

This mansion, called da Gama Mansion, was

built by Cristovao da Gama, viceroy of Goa

.. in the 17th century.

It was during his reign that a powerful

southern chieftain..

I am so bored..

- I am also

When Sivappa Nayak raided Goa,

da Gama left Goa and never returned

The mansion was renovated in the

nineteen sixties...

Hey..say cheese..

Bye..

Years passed, da Gama Mansion is

now on another historical moment

It's for this mansionthe da Gama mansion

for whom the bell tolls

It's been decided that it will be

torn down and turned into a casino

Please come..

I learned all the languages by speaking

to the visitors like you who come here

Sorry, now I am speaking their regional

language called Malayalam...

OK..Please come

This way..take the left..yea !

Come..come..come along

Stay here and look up..

Here, let me point out something that

visitors often miss

This is an astronomical clock that

stopped in 1633 - a kind of chronometer

Behind this chandelier, there it is

Theres also a story about it

In 1633, Sivappa Nayaks army from

Karnataka tried to conquer Goa

Cristovao da Gama was the

Viceroy of Goa at that time

Hey..hey.. - Where are you going,

come back here

Come here, that's a restricted area

So, please follow me.

Let's move to the next hall

From there, Ill share more stories

about Cristovo da Gama

One day has passed since the full moon

There are now four days left

Within that period, it will happen

The heir to the treasure

will learn its direction

Barroz, the moonlight will guide

the heir along the path

The cellar will welcome the heir on its own

Dear ghost, do not become entangled

in the past or your duty to the master

Hey ghost, find joy at least now

Theres a story that da Gama

hid the treasure in a cellar here

Folklore also says that he entrusted

a ghost to guard the treasure

The myth of the ghost has been

popular in the Portuguese colonies

On the day da Gama fled from Nayak's

army, Heri Bibilavathe chronometerceased

Actually this mysterious palace is rich in

history, myths, and intertwined legends

See, this earring is a striking example

of Mughal Jewel-craft

This piece is believed to be the earring

that Lord da Gama gifted to his daughter

Got it? But the thing is that..

We only have one earring from

the original pair on display here

Many valuables here were acquired by

them through wars with native kingdoms

Have you read the notice? - Yea

- Very good

Aunt Maria sent this

- Right..now you may go

And if I don't ? Eh..

Dont mess with me, or Ill spill it all

Out..out

- Out - my foot

Hes too extra; I'll deal with him later

- Did you hear me?

- Didn't I ask you to leave?

- I'm sorry..

- It's OK

This is da Gama's family portrait done by

famous painter Michiel Sweerts, here in Goa

You can see some glimpses of da Gama's

immense wealth in this portrait also

Take a good look at this painting

Look, da Gama's daughter Isabella wears

earrings in both ears...

Eh..!

There's something here,

as I mentioned earlier in the story

You seem to be a revolutionary, are you?

- Eh..?

Revolution

- Oh..

I have done many such things

- Aha..!

I'm Isa - I'm Chota

- Nice

Cheese

You dont need to go to school?

- What about you, then?

I am under suspension

- Aha..me too

Oh.. Aha..

- Who needs it?

How about a short trip?

- Why not?

So, you and your dad are here

to build the casino, right?

No way thats going to happen

Police and military might come after us,

but no one can touch our shacks

The ghost wont allow it to happen

- What ghost?

There is a bad a*s ghost

in the da Gama palace

So, dad and daughter have come here

without even knowing this?

You are up against a ghost

- Come on, Chota.. Have you seen it?

I went to see it, but just missed it.

- Heh..!

It's a treasure-guarding ghost;

you know nothing, sister

He wont allow anyone to bring down

the palace, let alone build a casino

What if we tried to?

Then you and your dad will end up

on his menu for a whole day

By the way, what did you

give that man at the museum?

It's actually a secret...

It shouldnt be shared with anyone

But Im sharing it with you since

weve become friends, OK?

You know what? It was actually

some spells and witchcraft stuff

Aunt Maria gave it to me

She's a sorceress

We are descendants of the Masikoros

who came from Africa

Oh my goodness!

It's working

From what you've told me, your aunt

sounds like a fairytale character

I'll show her to you, and maybe

you'll see the ghost too

Really?

- But you need to give her something first

Thats my aunts palace. Come if youve

got the guts; otherwise, leave it

See that orange chapel? - Hmm

She should be there now

Hey, Chotu, aren't you coming?

- I'll meet you there.

They are going for the protest

- Aha..

Take a turn here..

Oh, theyve started the

dance practice early!

This is my sorceress aunt,

look..

What's she doing?

Youve come, havent you?

...You..

She's not in a good mood.. Isa, leave!

I brought you here !

In the name of the father, the son..

- Hurry up, Isa.. let's leave

Lousy old man

Behave, Chota!

I have a doubt

It's her only

I brought her here

I saw her..

-Aha..

Perhaps because of her arrival,

Heri Bibilava started to turn again

I felt so..

It's not just a feeling; its the truth.

She should not go into the cellar

Before that, we should use her

to draw the ghost out

Is it possible?

He only has his powers inside the cellar

If we can draw the ghost out

before the lunar glow fades

We can bind him with the

magical power of my people

Yes, wasn't it your Masikaro people

that helped bind the ghost in the cellar?

So, my clan has a claim to the treasure,

and so do I

For me, too. Ive been waiting to avenge

those who branded my ancestors as thieves

Yes, we will do itfor ourselves

and for our ancestors

In three days..

Why have I traveled so far

and participated in this auction?

These are my investments

for Isa, aren't they?

And look at what she's doing?

Celebrating with the protestors

Just..what's her problem? You know..

I just can't figure out

Aunt Susane ..

Will Chota and his people lose

their homes when the casino opens?

Is it true?

It's not like that, dear..

- That's none of your business, Isa

You get me?

Johnson, get the funds in place,

Thank you

See, this is her attitude

She has been like this since Teresa left

Offending me over anything and everything

Is it so, Ron?

Your coffee

- Thank you

It might be that youre missing her side

due to your corporate distractions

This is her attitude

do you think its good?

Hey the cup might have accidentally fallen

Come on, Ron. There should be

a mother inside every father

Especially when raising

a child without a mother

Look, she cares about

the people in that slum

How can that be seen as wrong?

None of us felt such empathy, did we?

Barroz..

Barroz, firstly, the lights in

the cellar will be turned on

The doors will open on their own

The ghosts shackles will be broken

Then, our long wait will finally be over

Are you getting what Im saying, Barroz?

Barroz pappae ..

Welcome back, Lord da Gama..

People's clamour !

Their jubilant clamour upon seeing

the Lord's ships on the horizon

Welcome back, Lord da Gama..

I must receive my Lord in person and

carry dear Isabelle in my arms

Ah..my Lord kept his word..

He is back after exactly one month

Poor fellow, he lost track of time

due to his loyalty to his master

Welcome back, Lord da Gama..

Hey Barroz, dont go outside

Many are lurking outside,

to steal the treasure

Barroz, stop..don't go..

Oh, has he left?

What's this?

Huh.. what?

What..oh, no !

Oh.. ! the head shaft has stopped

Barroz, you know the significance

of this Coat of Arms?

Yes, its presented by the emperor for

conquering this fort with just three ships

It was a recognition for establishing

Portuguese authority in Goa

We know that, Lord..

But Im leaving Goa. Either to

Cochin or Diu, the enemy is at our gates

Oh Lord..

Ships Santa Catarina and Albuquerque

prepare them for boarding

The moment the fort falls, we set sail

I shall be back. one month at the most.

I shall return with firepower to

conquer the entire Karnataka

Barroz, it's a promise..

We shall return in one month.

This is the viceregal staff;

you should keep it safe

Hey Barroz.. Barroz..

Have you understood, at least now?

It's been ages, Barroz.. You have been

guarding the treasure for four centuries

It's the twenty-first century;

you need to come to terms with it

You are trying to forget what happened

because of your loyalty to Lord da Gama

Unbelievable !

Isabella... Isabella...

You are the golden treasure of my heart

Like a shadow, I linger close,

guarding your realm

In this sweet paradise

where ships kiss the land

You are the royal princess,

daughter of the hero lord

Charming doll,

a gem that gleams so bright,

The song of Barroz is

for you alone, my dear

Isabella... Isabella...

You are the golden treasure of my heart

Like a shadow, I linger

close, guarding your realm

Stars rose to catch a glimpse of her

Nightingales longed to

place a tender kiss upon her

The moon and butterflies longed

for her grace

I softly vowed, this treasure

I will not forsake

A divine spirit,

a tender bloom, my very soul

Sweet blossom, dear,

if the day comes when you bloom

When you fly seeking the skys edge

Tears may fall, but

with a smile, I shall watch

Ill wait through the ages for your

arrival,standing whole with a mind alight

Pouring my love as oil to fuel the

flame, a lamp that forever shines

Isabella... Isabella...

You are the golden treasure of my heart.

Like a shadow, I linger close,

guarding your realm

Night has settled, moonlight spreads,

fireflies dance in the glow

Sleep, with your silver eyes closing,

with dreams aplenty

Tender bud, child of Lord da Gama;

dawn awaits you, gentle bloom

Isabella... Isabella...

You are the golden treasure of my heart

Like a shadow, I linger close,

guarding your realm

Night has settled, moonlight spreads,

fireflies come dancing

Sleep, with your silver eyes closing,

with dreams aplenty

Isabella... Isabella...

You are the golden treasure of my heart

Like a shadow, I linger close,

guarding your realm

Barroz, please listen to me

Do not recall those sorrows

that should be forgotten

No one will come back

No one will come back

Isabella, my dear Isabella..

My Lord..

Madam Teresa.. no one..

How can I make him understand?

For them, I have bided my time

four four hundred years

Let me put it frankly:

now you have no right to lament

You are just the duty

As Lord da Gama ordered, keep his treasure

Hand over the key bunch

when his heir arrives

You have nothing else to do;

you must realize that fact

Yet you came out of the cellar and

put on a showwhat did it get you?

Barroz..

Yesterday was the last full moon of the

fourth century since you became a ghost

The pages of the tome never err

Someone from the da Gama lineage

was in the cellar yesterday

That's for sure, look at this..

389 + 1 = 390, which means,

thirty times thirteen

According to the tome, it's a 13- year old

girl of his thirteenth generation

Barroz, the lunar glow will fade

within the next three days

You should hand over the treasure

to the heir within this period

If not, we shall be doomed wander

here futilely until the apocalypse

But its not as easy as it sounds

There would be many sinister forces

who want to snatch the treasure

They would employ all forms

of sorcery for that

For instance, what caused the girl to

retreat from the cellar entrance ?

You know, it's because of evil spirits of

sorcery; the tome suggests as much

I will find my Lord's heir and

bring them to the cellar

You broke your duty, and as a result,

the Heri Bibilava ceased to turn again

The heir who ran away

will not return either

What a quagmire it has been !

It is my word to my Lord that the treasure

will be returned when he comes back

By finding the heir and delivering the

treasure, Barroz will prove that loyalty

Or else, why have I waited all these ages?

My word is my life

Only the heir can see the ghost;

no one else can

If that is so, there is a

way out of this quagmire

'No casino, no'

'No casino, no'

Say no to the casino ..

Why are you pulling my hair?

Who pulled your hair?

- This is human right violation

Stop babbling nonsense, you brat

Who's this, sir?

Dont let anyone in, keep them out

A ghost has no forgetting

I am the keeper of memories

spanning many centuries

Into this realm of memories, Isabella steps

I may have to pass this treasure

of memories to your heir, my Lord...

I will always protect your

honour without blemish

Alert..

Alert..alert.. Minister is inside..

Someone with expl*sives

might have entered the premises

Is this her?

- No..no.. move

They could have infiltrated inside

So be alert, check every where

Shes seen nowhere here

Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed

bidders of the heritage casino Project

I am delighted to be here with you today

at this historic mansion in Goa

This property is not just a

symbol of our rich cultural heritage

But also a beacon of

progress and development.

I am a firm believer that development is

the key to the prosperity of our nation

And this project is a testament to

our commitment to that cause

The casino project will not only preserve

the historical significance of this mansion

.. but also pave the way for a new era of

tourism..

Barroz, have the devil spirits

begun their work?

Hello, mister..

- Greetings

This is the handiwork of a group

of people who want the slum dwellers ...

Please sit down..

- No I don't want to..

I am well aware of the challenges

faced by the slum dwellers..

This project is not just

about economic growth

Sir, everything OK?

- Yeah.. all is good..

Nothing.. look..everything is fine

.. ensuring their well-being

and prosperity

I am well aware of the challenges

faced by the slum dwellers..

But we cannot let the past hold

us back from a brighter future

The casino project will create jobs,

boost the local economy, and put Goa..

.. on the map as a world-class tourist

destination like Dubai or even Las Vegas.

Barroz, stop looking at the roof.

Go find the girl

I urge all of you to look beyond the

short-term implications of this project..

.. and focus on the long-term benefits

it will bring to the people of Goa

We have a duty to ensure that our

state thrives and prospers..

.. and this project is a step in the

right direction

We are not forgetting the fact that ...

Thats not her. Dont reach out

..whether it is a road, a big factory,

a nuclear plant or tourism project..

Yes, it is true that to build this casino

.. it is not just the da Gama palace but

the neighbouring slums..

How is this?

- Behave yourself , Isa.. give me that

..but these are not in

themselves bad things

.. let me say, something that bothers..

something that's never been around

.. things that you, my people, have to feel

..shaky, confused, fun, remorse

or sadness about

In rebuilding the country the government is

also involving those who live in the slums

In rebuilding the country,

sacrifices are needed..

.. and these are but temporary sacrifices.

Now to end on a lighter note..

I have heard that the vested interests

that are misleading these protests..

.. are even spreading superstitions that

there is a ghost in the cellar..

.. guarding a treasure

Yes, there is a treasure..

Barroz, look..

That second one in the first row,

see the one who is looking at you

Where are you looking at?

Jai Hind

There..look straight

The first one from the left

the one in the middle.

Barroz..there.. there..

Mahagaga..Mahagaga..

That's her..

Hey.. I saw him pulling the chair..

Come fast..

Hes the one who pulled the chair

Security.. Subbu.. don't move..

-Sir, it's him..

That bearded man with the shaved head

Madam, you see..I'm the security officer

- Hes standing therecant you see?

Don't make any nuisance, sit down

- You haven't seen him !

Wheres the bearded, shaved-head guy?

I dont see him

Behind those officers..

Sir, look there..

There..

- Get me your glasses

Sir..sir

Barroz..run - Why ?

- You just run, man

He ran outside.. Didn't you guys see?

I clearly saw him..

Hee..hey, where did she go?

Hes going that waycome on, hurry!

- Where?

Look..there..

Over there..

Yes, he's there..

Nothing is there..

-Sir, please. He is there

Show me then.

- He's there

There he is.

- There? What do you mean, "there"?

- Sir.. !

- Officer, where are you?

Errhh.. yes, coming..!

Sir, here..

There..there.. there..!

- Sir..

Ron.. there she is , Isa..

-Isa, stop

Sir, Isa is there

Come on.. Isa..

Isa.. hey Isa..

Stop it

You..

She's there..there

You..!

You idiot.. you brought down the minister

I saw you pulling the chair

It's her, no doubt

..and you took off when

the police showed up

Ive seen it all, even if they havent

Isa..

-Isa, what happened to you

Isa..what did you do?

- It was him, I saw him doing it

Auntie, look, the guy over there

spoiled everything

Where? - There..

- Nobody is there..

See..

- I can't see anything

But I can see, look up..

Auntie, thereon top of it.

- Come here

He's there..

- I think you're dreaming

Go look there, sir..

-Come on, Isa - No..

Auntie, over there..

Isa..

- Auntie, he's over there

Auntie, look..he's following us

He is behind us..

Isa..come

-Auntie..

Look there.. he's still coming

She must be dreaming

Don't look back, walk Isa..

Just trust me.

Keep walking and look ahead

Why aren't you believing me?

I am not joking, Auntie

Auntie..he's there

This is so embarrassing

Please try to believe me

You.. you buffoon !

I'll not spare you

Isabella..

Mahagaga..!

She's just a girl from the

13th generation of the da Gama lineage

The one and only heir of the treasure

Gotcha !

He's come out..

He needs to be restrained

within the next two days

Do whatever it takes

to make that happen

I wont be able to enter the mansion

once the auction is finished either

True that..

This is a book written in 1633,

in your language. Please go through it

Loyaltythe unwavering loyalty

towards his master

That be the strength of the ghost,

says this document

He should be restrained with

that very same loyalty

The words in this document say as much

We can do it..

Where is that man you say has

knocked the minister off his chair?

The police have thoroughly

examined all the CCTV footage

But he couldnt be seen

anywhere. Where is he?

But you all saw me chasing him

when he tried to escape, right?

Yes, we did. But none of us

saw anyone like that

Yeah..true..

Are you kidding me? This is not a

big joke. I'm not crazy

Alright..I saw nothing.. problem solved?

So ignorant. get lost

- You get lost

Subbu, this child, she lives

in her imagination

OK..OK..but where is he?

Why isnt anyone believing me?

He was right in front of my eyes

I am not gonna spare him

What language is this?

Youre laughing as if you understand it

You think I am lying ! You just wait

Such a feisty little girl !

Who are you?

Im asking you, who are you?

If you drop this temper and

your inborn mischief, Ill tell you

I'm Barroz

The centuries-old Barroz awaiting Lord

Da Gama's heir to bestow the treasure

The treasure guarding ghost..!

Dont narrate the whole story,

cut to the chase, Barroz

What?

Thats why, as the 13th generation of that

lineage, you can see me while others cant

Treasure? da Gama? Your invisible crap

get lost, you lousy oldie!

Is this how you address elders?

Yes, I talk to everyone like this,

including my dad

Isa..

Hala..Baloo Hala Hala Hala Baloo

Bamboosia Bam Bam Bamboosia

Who are you, adrift on the waves?

The moonlight of boundless depth?

Who could you be?

Hala Baloo..Bamboosia who's she?

- Who is she ?

With hair like the oceans tide,

And eyes where calm shores hide

Lips like the crimson dusk,

And a nose like a coral lotus in bloom

Who are you?

Who could you be?

Hala Baloo..Bamboosia

Who are you?

She is Isabella..

Yes, she's Isabella

Youre Isabella

Our Isabelle, our cherished bella

Isabella ...

No, no, Im not your Isabelle!

Ba..Ba... Barroz...

Is it right?

Gho..ghost... ghostly Barroz...

Long, long ago, in the distant past

A world was fashioned with gold adornments

In that world, the people trusted the ghost

And they entrusted the gold to the ghost

And they entrusted the gold to the ghost

Why why

Why why

Why?

The treasure he guarded,

is yours to hold

Its not mine no, not mine,

I need it not..

Yes, yes, you need those

-your golden treasure

Hala..Baloo.. Bamboosia

Ghostly Barroz, Poor Barroz,

Hala..Baloo.. Bamboosia

Beyond these waves, beyond the sea,

theres a realm that beckons me

Where all treasure- guarding

ghosts must one day return

But only if you claim this treasure,

can I go there

My salvation lies in

your tender hands, Isabella

Dear..

Its time, for my journey of no return

I understand there are 11 bidders

Really? All present

Hey..Isa.. what're you up to?

Aunt Susane..

Come on..

Isa..what is this Isa..?

Hey..Jacob

-Yes, ma'am

You deserved it. Thats what happens

when you mess with elders

Isa..

My God..

Is that your mom?

Where is your mom?

She's gone..

Dad..?

He's just as good as gone

Isabella..Isabella ...

You are the golden treasure of my heart

Do you sing, dear?

Do you sing well?

Even dogs dodge my ditties!

Not this Barroz dog..

I want to hear your songs

Please sing a song..

about your mom, dad, you, or even me..

Sing..

My mind... the sky,

My mind... the sky,

My mind... the sky,

My mind... the sky,

Shine bright, silver star

Shine bright, silver star

My mind... the sky,

Shine bright, silver star

In compassion's tender hold,

I yearn to awaken,

Like a stream at last, embracing

the sea, ready to dissolve,

Like a stream at last, embracing

the sea, ready to dissolve,

The treasure I kept through

endless days, faded as you neared,

The treasure I kept through

endless days, faded as you neared,

Isa, well done

Guys..

I never knew my daughter could

sing and dance like that

That was special

And I'm a proud father tonight..yeah..

OK..Thank you all

Mamma..sorry......

Remembering a baptism that took place

in the River Jordan long ago

May your mind be purified by grasping

the subtle essence of that knowledge

Isa..

Men, go to the

(fortress) walls!

My Lord..

My God..!

Mendossa.... Here, water...

Relax my lady..

He's bleeding... he will die...

Cristavio...Cristavio....

- Everything will be alright, madam

My God....

My child... Isabella

- Isabella.. heh..

They need to be taken

to the galleons, now..

Where? where? I need to see them

for one last time. I need to see...

No, my lord, everything is fine

Nothing shall happen to your child.

No.. I need to see my treasures

Take me there , now..

No, Cristovao, no..

Come, come fast...

Don't panick, isabella, I am with you

Aren't you coming. Barroz Papa ?

Stay here; Ill go get the lord,

got me?

Aren't you coming, Barroz Papae?

- Sure will

My earrings, doll, cradle..

Barroz Papae

Our Massikaro

occult practices still work to this day

Not even a grain of your gold would

you lose by the gods of my ancestors

Until the master or heir returns, someone

must guard the treasure as a ghost

For that a loyal servant must

willingly be sacrificed

He should drink this potion

Massavana, who is that chosen one?

Massavana, you know

the tradition, right?

Do you volunteer?

Barroz... my daughter Isabella...

The boat stands ready for you,

my Lord and Lady

Youre disturbing me

Stop your nonsense, you crone!

Barroz, stop...

A ritual is about to take place here

Mendossa... please save me

from this situation

Lord, here is the perfect man

to guard your treasures

Faithful among the faithful,

the keeper of the palace key

Barroz...

Yes.. Barroz..

Here, ever-faithful Barroz, wear my armor,

which bears my coat of arms

It bears my blood, shed to acquire these

riches. Wear this and guard my treasure

My Lord..

- This is my order

Cristavao.... no....

Barroz should come wirh us

That was a promise made by Isabella

This is a grievous wrong

This is utterly against

the will of the gods

My Lord..

I am duty bound to obey any

and every command you give

No matter what it is

Come on, lets go quickly

Cristavio, this is a grave sin

Bring it..

Barroz Papae ..

My Lord..

Barroz Papae had promised to come.

Where is he?

Isabella, come..

Mom, Dad..where is Barroz Papae?

He promised to me

Isabella, my daughter, come..

- Where is he..?

Where is Barroz Papae ?

Become a demon.. a treasure guarding ghost

Voodoo, you are now the witness

From this moment on, you are his keeper

From this moment on, you are his keeper..

Let's start..

Barroz Papae..

Barroz Papae..

Barroz Papae..

Did you get scared?, dear?

Barroz Papae, why did you do this?

Why did you allow all these?

That was my duty

That is what Barroz is for, dear

It's so sad; it was a great injustice

I beg your pardon, for those

who have done this to you

For da Gama, my ancestor

I have no regrets about that, dear

Moreover, you also called me

Barroz Papae

Just as my Isabella baby

used to call me

I am glad..

Now I understand, what Isabella

meant to Barroz Papae

..and to her as well

This has caused immense sorrow and pain

to many people, including Barroz Papae

Compared to that, my problems are nothing

Let me give this to someone, okay?

To Chota and his people, who are

being displaced from the slum?

My responsibility is to

hand this over to you

Then its up to you to

decide what to do with it

Dont take it. The sacred powder

to destroy evil spirits is kept inside

What? To destroy evil spirits?

Look, this could get out of hand

Tell that brat to put it back

- What?

- Nothing..

Are you teasing me?

Barroz Papae.. I heard

what he said about me

Brat.. right?

You are not that great, either-

you, strip- tot !

This's a designer outfit..

Now you look like, America's

next top model!

How's it ? Isn't he cute now?

Now tell me. what shall I do?

Barroz Papae, what should I

do for you?

389 Years ! .. I have been..

No, you can tell me anything else,

just not this

Then, you should go back and apologise

Isa..

Shes the heir, or else

Id have given her a kick

Who wants her shabby rag !

What's this, man?

Laugh, laugh I havent seen your

laugh in 389 years and 389 days

You keep on laughing.. Everything is

gonna be upside down here..

Hiya.. tada..

Barroz, remember that she returned

without accepting the key

Now you have only one day left

to return the key to her

If Isa turns out like my baby Isabella,

all the closed doors will open

You keep on imagining..

All of us Isa, her dad, you, me

everyone will be free

Your drunken rants might

be music to my ears...

.. but the tome says some thing else

No..no.. never

Something you and your tome don't say

is becoming clearer in my mind

Let it be clearer..

.. and the relocation of the slum dwellers

.. however, i would like to inform you

that the government has made a decision..

.. to move forward with the

bidding process at any cost,

.. even if it involves the use of force.

We cannot bow down to anti socials and

anti nationals

.. who are sabotaging the

development process

The auction will take place, there is no

question of going back on this, no doubt..

Wait..

- the auction will take place

Tell me..

I am sorry..

I a sorry, too..

This is an email from your principal

that I received earlier

Read it..

They have revoked your suspension

I spoke to them

The school forgives not only you, but your

entire g*ng for your mischief this time

I know..

- Barroz Papae did it ..

- What ?

You won't believe it

And.. do you have a minute?

Yeah..sure..!

Papa, look doesnt she look like my Mama?

Did you see that?

Yea.. yes..

She looks like my Teresa..

but I havent noticed it before

Isabella's earring..

There is another one like

this in the cellar..

Barroz Papae showed it to me

You could have bought it

by hand, then..

I am serious..this is a treasure

and we have to preserve it

We have to..

Papa.. -

You should win this auction,

but not to turn this into a casino

We should keep this as a monument

Mama would be so proud...

This is the treasure of our family

But.. I can't force you

So, it's up to you, Papa..

Isa, you talks just like your mother,

Good night..

Tell me, Mama.. please

Mama, you left me so unexpectedly

I was left all alone, like I had no one

I dont want Barroz Papae to

leave me like that either

I don't want to lose everyone I love

My Lord ..

Don't.. that's not Lord da Gama

- Then?

An evil spirit Ive created

using Masikoro sorcery

Only Lord da Gamas heir can enter the

cellar where the treasure is kept

But this evil spirit could

help us with that

This should be planted along the same

pathway through which the ghost came out

If the heir steps on it while entering

the cellar, the evil spirit will follow

Then it will restrain the ghost

in the cellar

You will see the sorcery prowess

of the Masikoro clan today

Barroz Papae..

Barroz Papae, where are you?

What?

Da Gama..!

Thank God.. the head shaft

has started turning

Barroz Papae..

Barroz Papae..

Barroz Papae..

Hey, Barroz..

Barroz Papae..

da Gama..

Barroz..

Lord..!

My Lord.. forgive me

Barroz Papae..

Loyalty.. wow !

I am not your da Gama

I am not your da Gama

Before I take your life, you must

witness what I will do to her

Hey, Isa..

Hey, Isa..

Barroz papae

Help..Barroz Papae..

Barroz Papae..

Isa..

Hey, Isa..

Where is she.

Isa..

Isa..

Dont take it. The sacred powder to

destroy evil spirits is kept inside

Yeaa..

Erhh..!

Barroz..

Isa..

Barroz Papae..

Dear, don't be sad..

To receive all of this is

the fealty I must endure

It is time to fulfill all my vowed fealties

Barroz Papae..

Dear..

If I accept this,

then I will have no one left in this world

You will have your father,

the greatest truth of your life

Barroz Papae, Barroz Papae..

Please don't leave me

Barroz Papae is not real

This treasure has so much blood on it

I guarded it painfully -and for that pain to go

youve to use it for a greater good

You can!

Had it been my baby Isabella,

she would have heeded my words

Mahagaga..!

Mahagaga.. Mahagaga..Mahagaga..!

$151 million

Fantastic ..

- Hhh.. aaah..!

- Going once.. twice sold

Hey.. what's that ?

Arrest him..

Barroz..

In fact, you were guiding me,

not the other way around

With your honesty and loyalty, you've

redeemed even the clan that betrayed you

You've already conquered the time..

Goodbye, my friend

Mahagaga

Dear, no treasure surpasses the value

of a drop of tear shed for another

Isabella..

You are my real treasure..

Barroz papae..

Simply watching the

ships on the shore..

Barroz took care and guarded..

Yet he cherished and kept

The spring just for her..

Ages down the lane..

As a grandma's story

Elder Barroz and the young girl

Will be cherished in the world's heart

As she grew up, tender, lonely

Isa

My Isabella

It is time to render real the

treasure of the fairy tale

It is your duty

to remind her of that.

Thus she became empowered

To receive the treasure

when transferred

When Elder Barroz

handed her the patrimony

He became free from the prison of time

Barroz Papae..

The keys? Then where is he?

There..

Where is he ?

There..

Come..

- There..!
