The scene opens with a shot of the snowy Himalayas, where light snow is falling, and there’s a quiet, serene atmosphere all around. Suddenly, breaking the silence, a large, chubby mouse named Mushakraj appears. He is sliding down on a big snowball, trying to balance and stop himself from falling, looking terrified.
Mushakraj :
Arre Arre…ruko ruko !! bachaiye prabhu!!!!!
Just then, the snowball crashes
loudly into a tree, sending Mushakraj flying through the air. He calls out to
his lord as he lands on a tall, dry cedar tree. The branches are frail, and the
one Mushakraj is hanging onto creaks as if about to break. Mushakraj, now
sweating with fear, looks down at the ground below and the branch above,
terrified and screaming.
Mushakraj:
aaj toh gaye mooshak ke praan !! Prabhu
bachaiye !! kahan hain prabhu Ganesha
aap??
Mushakraj’s voice echoes throughout the entire Kailash
Suddenly, we show a figure jumping
down from the snow-capped mountains. His fists are buried in the snow, and as
he pulls them out, we reveal, through his trunk, that it is none other than
Ganesha, the son of Shiva. The background music of Ganesha’s theme plays as he
stands tall, placing his hands on his waist and looking around.
Ganesha:
Mooshakraj toh kahin dikhai nahi de
rahen…achanak kahan lupt ho gaye..??
Ganesha talks to his trunk.
Ganesha:
Soond ji aapko kahin dikh rahe hain
kyaa humare Mooshakraj ??
At that moment, Ganesha’s trunk
stretches and points in one direction.
Ganesha looks there and reacts,
Mushakraj is hanging from a dry cedar tree, about to fall. As mooshak sees
Ganesga he yells
Mushakraj: (shaking in
fear)
Prabhu aap aa gaye…bachaiye prabhu
mere praan sankat mein hai..
Ganesh looks above
Ganesh:
aap chinta mat kijiye Mooshak ji
main kuch karta hoon..
Suddenly, the branch snaps, and
Mushakraj starts falling.
Mushakraj:
Prabhuuuuuuu
At that moment, Ganesha’s trunk
swiftly extends and catches Mushakraj.
Mushakraj :
(joyfully)
aahhh baal baal bach gaya mai
toh..
Mushakraj, filled with relief,
kisses Ganesha’s trunk affectionately.
Mushakraj :
dhanywad prabhu main bach gaya..ab
kripya mujhe neeche utariye..
Ganesha’s trunk gently lowers
Mushakraj to the ground.
Mushakraj:
agar aap samay par nahi aate toh
main aaj toh marr hi jaata prabhu.
Just then, Devrishi Narada appears
and speaks to Mushakraj.
Narada:
pyare Mooshak jo hote hain Ganesh
ke bhakt unko kabhi nahi hota koi kasht. Isiliye toh inke 12 naam pade hain.
Ganesha greetings.
Ganesha :
pranam devarshi!!
Narada:
sada prasann rahiye Gauri nandan
Ganesh
At that moment, Ganesha’s trunk
starts playing Narada’s veena, and Ganesha affectionately scolds his trunk.
Ganesha:
Soond ji yeh aapke kaam ki cheez
nahi hai..shaant rahiye, kailas jaate waqt raste mein meethe ber khilaunga main
aapko…
The trunk stops playing the veena. Excitedly,
Mushakraj asks,
Mushakraj
Prabhu ke 12 naam??
Narada:
haan pyare mooshak, Shiv nandan
Gauri putra hain Sankatharta jinke 12 naam hai yeh sansar japta.. kalyan ho.
Saying this Devrishi Narada
disappears.
Ganesha:
mooshak ji ab kailas chale kya
bahut bookh lagi hai mujhe..
Mushakraj:
(he chuckles mischievously) mujhe
bhi prabhu..kyunki darr ke aage bhookh hai..chaliye
Ganesha stops while moving.
Ganesha:
waise mooshak ji aapko iss ore aane
kisne kaha tha…? aapko pata hai naa samay samay par kailas mein himskhalan bhi
hote rehte hain..aapko kuch ho jaata toh?
Mushakraj:
(chuckles mischievously)
abhi abhi toh devarshi narad ne
bataya naa prabhu..jiske saath sankatharta ho use kuch nahi ho sakta. Kintu
prabhu aapke 12 naam kaise pade honge??
Ganesha:
mere 12 anokhe kaarnamon ke chalte
hi mere 12 naam pad gaye mooshak ji
Mushakraj: (excited)
toh fir aapke voh anokhe kaarname
mujhe bataiye naa prabhu??
Ganesha
avashya avashya kyun nahi…kintu
pehale Kailas chaliye main aapko mere 12 naam padne ki katha aapko wahin sunata
hoon
Mushakraj:
toh fir aaiye prabhu, jaldi se meri
peeth par swar ho jaaiye, ham jaldi kailas pahuch jaayenge, kyunki main aapke
12 naamo ki katha sunne ke liye bahut hi aatur hoon..
Ganesh:
theek hai chaliye…
Ganesha climbs onto Mushakraj’s
back, and Mushakraj speeds off.
