Well, Mr. Thakur summoned me.. - Welcome, Jailer. Please come.

Mr. Thakur..

The moment I received your letter, I knew

that you wished to meet me.

I took the first train available.

I'm putting you to some trouble, Jailer.

Sure, sir. I am at your service.

I need two men. - Two men?

Ramlal..

Do you recognise them?

There's hardly a prison where they have had not been held, Mr. Thakur.

This is Veeru and this is Jaidev.

They're crooks, both of them. Thieves of the first order!

I know.

They're just what I need for the assignment at hand.

I can't say what assignment you have in mind, Mr. Thakur.

But I can surely tell you that they are good-for-nothing.

That's not true, Jailer.

For all their vices

they have some virtues, too.

A fake coin is a fake, after all. Whichever way you look at it.

That is perhaps the difference between a man and a coin.

I still remember. It's been two years.

I had arrested both of them in the Jamalpur district.

We had to reach the police station at Tamli village by dusk.

Since no other arrangements could be made

we took a goods train.

I had two constables with me.

And there were these crooks

Jaidev and Veeru, chained and handcuffed.

Sir..

Were you ever posted at the Daulatpur Police Station?

Yes, I was. Why do you ask?

Okay! I remember now!

I've been wondering

where I've seen you, ever since you've caught us.

Remember Laalji's shop? The provision store which we robbed'?

Do you remember? - Laalji's store? No.

Don't you? Jai.. Jai!

Remember, we were held at the Daulatpur Police Station?

Daulatpur Police Station? - Yes, don't you remember?

When was that? - We had robbed the grocer.

He was the officer then. Don't you recognise him?

All police officers look the same to me.

D-Don't mind him, please. He always talks nonsense.

Since when have the two of you been in this racket'?

You could say, we stood our own two feet, the moment we could!

But why do you do all this?

For the same reason you work as a cop. Money!

Not true.

I don't do this job just for money.

I have enough of ancestral land to keep us going.

Perhaps, I'm fond of the dangers involved in the game.

We face dangers every day, too.

There's a difference.

I take on dangers to protect the law.

And you, to break the law.

You need to be a brave man, in both the cases.

Oh, sure! You do need courage.

I see.

You guys think yourselves to be very brave, don't you?

You will see when the time comes, Inspector.

We'd take on at least 15 or 2O odd guys.

I haven't exaggerated it, have I, Jai?

Now that you've already said it, we'll deal with it! - Yes!

Bandits!

Well, Inspector? Want to try out our guts?

There's still time, Inspector. Give it a thought!

Don't you dare try to escape.

Stop the engine, Driver!

Surge ahead! As fast as you can! - O-Okay..

Charge ahead!

It'd be dangerous to move faster!

The path is blocked ahead!

Come on, give me a sip!

Are you okay, sir? - I'm all right.

Dares to mess with Veeru!

They've fled, those rascals! - Right!

Jai, let's go.

I had warned you

not to try to escape..

What do you say?

We can run away.

Leaving him in this condition?

He's going to die if we leave him in this condition.

And if we take him to a hospital

we get sent away for four to six months.

What do you suggest? - What do you?

Get it out.

If it's heads, we take him to a hospital

if it's tails, we escape.

It's heads.

They are criminals, no doubt. But they're terribly brave.

They're dangerous because they know how to fight back.

They're bad, but they're humans.

Could you find these guys for me, Jailer?

We'll easily find them if they are presently in some prison.

But if they're free, they'd live a wanderer's life.

Hey, stop! What do you think you are doing?

Where are you taking my motorcycle? My motorcycle..

"This friendship."

"We will not break it."

"I Will die"

"but will not leave your side."

"This friendship."

"We will not break it."

"I Will die"

"but will not leave your side."

"My victory is your victory, your defeat is my defeat."

"Listen, my friend."

"Your sadness is my sadness, my life is your life."

"That is how our love is."

"I will even face death."

"For you, I Will.."

"I will even face death."

"For you, I Will"

"become an enemy to everyone."

"This friendship."

"We will not break it."

"I Will die"

"but will not leave your side."

"People see us as two, but look"

"we are not two."

"Oh, we separate or become angry.."

"Dear God, we pray that should never happen."

"We eat and drink together."

"We will live and die together."

"We eat and drink together."

"We will live and die together."

"Our whole life!"

"This friendship."

"We will not break it."

"I Will die"

"but will not leave your side."

"This friendship."

"We will not break it."

"I Will die"

"but will not leave your side."

Come on, Soorma Bhopali! You're pulling out more of the firewood.

Naturally. You don't expect me to put some more, do you?

The scale says it's enough and you insist on more.

Just take your wood and make the payment.

Here's a Rs. 2 note.

I can see that, but is it genuine? Okay, it is. Good.

Okay, then. Goodbye.

Won't you return my money? - Money? What money do you want?

That's a Rs. 2 note. - The wood is worth Rs. 2 too!

Just this much of wood for Rs. 2?

Were you out to buy the whole forest for Rs. 2 then?

Look, I've had enough now! Just get going.

I'm not Soorma Bhopali for nothing! Okay?

Get lost! I wonder where they come from!

He says the wood is too less! Wants the forest then, does he?

They always come early every morning to spoil my day!

Chand! You're at your cursed poetry again!

Go and check if they've unloaded the stuff from the truck yet!

Well.. Are you guys watching a drama here?

This is no travellers' bungalow. Who are you guys?

God Almighty! It's you!

How are you, Soorma Bhopali?

I'm fine, thanks to you guys!

But what are you guys up to?

Come here!

The police have declared a reward of Rs. 2000 for your arrest.

If someone watches us together

I'll land in trouble, too!

So, please get going!

Know what, Soorma Bhopali? We want to go to prison.

I hope God fulfils your wish!

Had this been Bhopal

I'd have had you locked up in just two minutes!

I'm not Soorma Bhopali for nothing, you know?

But why would anyone need me here?

A warrant is out in your name in any case!

But we want you to get us arrested.

What are you talking about?

There's a reward of Rs. 2000 which you will get.

Give us half the money

when we're released from prison.

Got it? - Are you serious?

Have some betel leaf. Go on, it's very tasty!

It's one of a kind and so are you guys!

Attention!

Since when have they started having a parade here?

You've just arrived, sonny boy. You'll get to know soon.

This new jailer is a nasty one!

A nasty jailer, he says. - There he comes.

Attention!

Attention, I say!

But they're already at attention, sir.

I know that..

Prisoners!

This is a warning for you!

Everything that went unchecked before my arrival here

will no longer be tolerated!

No.. No!

I've been a jailer since the British era!

I don't belong to the breed of jailers

who waste time, trying to reform the prisoners!

I know it for a fact! You guys can't be reformed!

How can you ever change when I have not changed?

I know, my words don't go down well with you.

Which is why I am transferred from every place I'm posted at.

But despite all my transfers

I have not changed!

So, you better remember!

Don't think I am not informed of all that you guys are up to!

I have spies everywhere in the prison.

I get a report of every moment.

Not even a bird could flap its wings here without my consent!

What the hell was that? - A bird.. A pigeon, sir!

What's that in my eyes? Get it out.. Never mind!

This will do for today! You may leave now.

Let's go!

What a strange guy!

Who could be the jailer's spy?

I can tell you. It's the barber, Hariram.

He's very thick with the jailer. The swine!

Hariram, the barber!

Go ahead and shave off my moustache, Hariram. - Okay.

It has all been arranged!

We get cracking tomorrow.

Is it?

How many days will it take to dig the tunnel?

You've cut my face!

The tunnel? It should be ready in about a week.

Where are we going to dig the tunnel from?

It'd be parallel to barrack number nine.

I hope the jailer doesn't get to know about it!

No one will get a whiff of it.

Let's go!

There! I'm done. - Okay.

Sir..

Yes, Hariram? What news do you bring?

Stay alert, sir. They're digging a tunnel in the jail.

Oh, well! Atunnel in my jail..

What was that? A tunnel in my jail?

Yes, sir. The prisoners are digging a tunnel in the jail.

I've been a jailer since the British era!

A tunnel in my jail?

Hey, attention!

So, this is where the tunnel is being dug from!

This is wonderful!

But you guys seem to have forgotten that my spies

are spread out in every corner of the prison.

And what is this?

Oh!

So, this is the tool to dig the tunnel with!

I'm a jailer since the British era..

Here he comes!

Is it all arranged then? - Yes.

We won't miss out this time!

A pistol is here in the prison!

A pistol has here?

Yes.

In just a couple of days

the jailer and his spies..

A pistol in my prison.. A pistol? - Yes!

A pistol in my prison? - Yes!

That means, a revolt? - That's right.

Streams of blood? - Exactly.

Guards.. Guards! - Guards? Guards!

Halt!

Search every nook and corner of the jail!

Half of you go in that direction.

Half of you go that way.

The remaining of you guys come with me!

Halt!

Here's the pistol!

Move an inch, and..

Guards!

They've left.

Let's go to your office. - How can I?

You have asked me not to move!

The first order stands cancelled. Let's go.

Is the jailer of the British era so scared'?

No.. Don't!

Escort us till the gate first!

Attention! About turn!

Now, march!

Left, right..

Left, right..

Left, right.. Come on, halt!

Have the gate opened.

Yes, sir?

Open the gate. - Yes, sir.

Here's the key.

And here's the pistol!

The two of them must have tried to run away, isn't it?

Tried to run away? That's an understatement!

They put their lives into it!

But I wasn't about to let them go!

As I held one of them

the other tried to escape.

I dragged him back and asked, 'Where to, fella?'

With two stinging slaps

I began to drag them to the police station!

That was it! They fell at my feet!

Did Veeru and Jai really fall at your feet? - Yes!

They're dangerous criminals!

They're criminals, all right!

But I'm not called Soorma Bhopali for nothing!

You can imagine! They wept at my feet!

And begged for forgiveness. I'd have forgiven them, too!

But I was furious that they had dared to trespass my territory!

What happened next? - What else?

You know I carry a stick!

It was days since I had used it. So, I got down to brass tacks

and I really thrashed them! I gave them a sound beating!

What happened next? - What would have happened?

I held them by their collars and said..

What did you say? - What did I say?

What did I say? Yes, I remember..

'Do let me know if there is something more I can do for you.'

Well, guys.. Have you got nothing better to do?

You plunk yourselves here and compel me to concoct falsehoods!

Go and attend to your work! Go on, you lazy bums!

'Smoking/Tobacco kills.'

Well.. I was only kidding.

But you guys have been released pretty quickly, haven't you?

My Word!

The stint at the prison seems to have been good for you!

Soorma.. - Yes, sir?

We are here to collect our Rs. 1000.

Rs. 1000? - You heard it right!

I see! Of course!

I got the money the very next day of your arrest!

Since that day

the money has been lying safely in an envelope in my pocket!

Here you go, a thousand bucks! You are welcome to count it.

Well, Soorma.. See you again. - Sure.

It's these chaps I've been looking for.

When does their prison term come to an end?

On the 18th of the next month.

Could I have a ciggy, guard?

Well, Inspector? Who have you brought to the prison today?

I'm not an inspector anymore.

I'm just Thakur Baldev Singh.

Why?

Have you gotten over your fondness of playing with dangers?

If you are so proud of your bravery

will you accept an assignment from me?

We accept assignments only for money.

How much do you want?

What's the job?

Why do you worry about that if you're really brave?

Name the price, and you will get it.

Provided you do what I want you to do.

Gabbar Singh?

The notorious bandit?

Yes. He's the one.

The police are even said to have placed a reward on his head.

Rs. 50,000, dead or alive.

You've got to capture the bandit for me, alive.

You want us to nab Gabbar Singh, that too, alive and kicking!

Gabbar Singh is no kid that we could run and catch, Mr. Thakur!

I know it's a difficult task.

But no one pays so much for something easy.

Let's suppose we risk our lives

and somehow manage to capture him.

Do you want us to hand him over to you forjust Rs. 20,000?

So, you can make a cool Rs. 50,000, for nothing?

The reward from the police will go to you, too.

I only want Gabbar.

Is it an old feud?

That's none of your business.

May I ask you another question then?

You know we're criminals, too.

So, why did you choose us to track down the bandit?

Because only a diamond cuts a diamond.

Ramlal..

That's Rs. 5,000.

You will get Rs. 5,000 more upon your arrival in Ramgarh.

The rest after you have accomplished the mission.

Paflnen.

What do you suggest?

Heads, we go for it.

Tails.. - We don't!

Well, gentlemen? Where will you go?

Belapur, Rampur, Ramgarh.. Where do you want to go?

Have you never seen a horse-cart before?

This is a village, sir.

You can't find cars here in which you can speed away.

Basanti's ride is all you will find around here.

Look, I'm not in the habit of talking unnecessarily.

Say so, if you wish to go.. - Well, we do wish..

It's okay, if you don't wish to go!

You won't be my enemies!

I thought you'd need a ride and happened to ask you.

But you don't have to be my passengers, you know?

It's a free world!

This is Basanti's ride, not the field of a landlord

which you will have to till, even if you don't want to!

This is just like.. - Let's go! We wish to go!

Let's go, partner! - Sure. When have I refused?

Now, look, I'm not a chatterbox.

So, I'd better tell you in advance.

A ride to Belapur costs Rs. 2

and to Ramgarh, Rs. 1.5.

Don't haggle, please! What Basanti says is final!

Okay, we were.. - I know what you will ask!

As to why I charge Rs. 2 for Belapur and Rs. 1.5 for Ramgarh.

You'd better ask which village this cart belongs to. Go on.

Well, where does it belong to? - It belongs to Ramgarh!

I see! So, it belongs to Ramgarh! Now, I know!

Actually, there is this thing worth considering.

When I make a trip to Belapur, I actually make two trips.

To Belapur and back to Ramgarh.

But should I go to Ramgarh, it's like going home.

The cart belongs to Ramgarh and so do I.

That's enough about me.

So, where would you like to go?

Actually, we'd like to go to Ramgarh, too.

Sure! When have I refused?

But you will have to tell me whose house you're going to.

So, Basanti can take you to that address.

If I'm not told where you've got to go

where will I stop the cart?

How will the cart stop if I don't stop it?

After all, you should consider

who holds the reins! I do!

And if I wouldn't know..

We've got to go to Thakur Baldev Singh's place.

Sure! Let's go! When did I refuse?

You could have said as much!

Let's go, Dhanno!

Well, this is like.. Never mind! You know..

So, you see, I had already lost my parents.

And who had to fend for my aunt and ply the cart?

Me, of course.

People ask how a girl like me can go around plying a cart.

I have an answer ready for them.

Dhanno is a mare, and she can still draw a cart.

So, why can't Basanti ply a cart? Am I right?

So, what's wrong with that?

City girls drive cars, no one says anything to them.

You seem to be a wise man, although you're from the city.

What is your name? - Veeru.

You haven't yet asked me my name!

What is your name, Basanti?

Oh, shut up! You're always talking nonsense!

I wasn't talking to you, you know?

But since you have asked me, let me tell you

my name is Basanti.

That's the first time I've heard the name.

Basanfi! What a lovely name!

There's a story behind my name, too.

Really? Do tell me! Please!

When I was a little girl

a distant relative said..

What did she say?

She said that one shouldn't be named randomly. Anyway..

I was born in the Indian month of 'Basant'.

Hence, I was named Basanti!

That's it, Dhanno! Halt!

Okay! This is Mr. Thakur's mansion.

We have reached? - Strange! Talking to you guys

I didn't even realise the distance.

That's right. We are very talkative.

Here's the fare, Rs. 1.5.

You're a nice man.

I shouldn't be accepting money from you.

But what will the horse eat if it befriends its food?

So, I will accept the money. - That's very kind of you.

Let's go, Dhanno! Turn around!

Wow! She is such a sweet talker!

She talks way too much!

Let's go. You don't have to score with every girl you meet.

Come on!

Welcome.

This way, please.

Greetings, Mr. Thakur!

You had no problems getting here, I hope?

Well, not much.

Come in.

Had you dropped a letter, I'd have sent someone to receive you.

Your stay has been arranged.

Just let me know if there is anything you need.

Ramlal..

I had promised to pay you Rs. 5000 on your arrival.

You remember your assignment, don't you?

I want Gabbar.

Alive. - Of course, we remember.

You want Gabbar to be captured alive.

You will have him.

Go and take some rest. You must be tired.

We'll discuss the rest later.

Follow me, please.

This way.

Please go ahead. I'll go and fetch the keys.

Jai..

That safe was stuffed with riches!

Folks in this village seem to wear a lot of gold.

So, what do you say?

Quite a big house. And beautiful, too.

Who else stays here? - Your keys.

That is your quarters.

Do call out to me, should you need something.

We surely will.

Well, Veeru..

I can't quite figure this out.

Why should we bother, Jai? Mr. Thakur has paid us Rs. 10,000.

Let's clean out his safe tonight and get away. What say?

Very well.

Let's sleep now if we're planning to keep awake tonight. - Right.

Mr. Thakur, these guys..

They are my men.

Then, why did they attack us?

I wanted to see

if you still possess the same courage and strength.

Or whether time has rendered you

impotent.

So? What did you see'?

I see.

I have made no mistake in having you over.

You did make one mistake, Mr. Thakur!

You let us see the contents of your safe.

Here's the key to the safe.

The safe has some ornaments which are of no use to me.

A widow will never need them again.

It has some money, too. You can take that away as well.

I'm glad, it will at least break father-in-law's false hopes.

Hopes, which he has pinned on you.

Excuse me.

Last night's incident will not happen again.

Here, have some more!

You've eaten enough to be big and strong!

But when we need to make a trip to Belapur you sure do put on airs!

Go on eating.. - Basanti! Hey, Basanti!

I'm here, feeding this donkey, Aunt!

Now, watch her kick up a fuss!

Listen, girl! You can roam around all day!

But you wouldn't do a simple chore for me!

There she is! Ranting as usual!

You're always losing your temper with me, Aunt.

Won't you give me a chance? What had you asked me to do?

You asked me to go the physician, didn't you?

I did go to him to fetch your medicines.

But he wasn't there.

He's supposedly ill

and has gone to the neighbouring village for treatment.

I didn't mention the doctor and you gave me a whole lecture!

What else did you ask me to do?

Didn't I ask you to fetch some raw mangoes for the pickle?

But you will never remember!

Raw mangoes! Oh, sure! You did tell me!

I'll go, fetch them right away!

Mr. Rahim, shall I walk you home?

Who's that?

Basanti! - Yes! - It's you today.

I've spent years in this village.

You weren't even born then.

But even before I can alight the steps of the mosque

there is someone or the other to walk me home.

Of course, that's obvious!

There's not a soul in this village who does not respect you.

When they respect you so much, why won't they help you?

It's all very natural. Actually..

When you can talk so much

why don't you talk some sense into Ahmed too?

He's even younger to you.

Well, I know very well how to talk sense into people.

I can talk some sense into your son too.

But you see

unless I know what I have to talk about, how will I?

Well, Ahmed's uncle

works in a tobacco factory in Jabalpur.

His salary is Rs. 300! - Really? - Yes!

He has written to me so very often to send Ahmed over.

He'd talk to his boss

and get Ahmed a job in the same factory.

But Ahmed is just not prepared to go!

He says I'd be left all alone!

- How are you, Ms. Basanti? - Well, I'm fine, Ahmed.

But tell me, you've completed your matriculation

and you speak English too.

And as your uncle in Jabalpur writes..

Come on now! Even you have fallen for father's words now?

He narrates the same tale to everyone!

So, what's wrong? I just answered a question she asked.

You know, I'm not used to talking without reason.

But just think it over!

It's a tobacco factory!

Work as long as you feel like, and at other times, smoke away!

It's like getting all the mangoes for nothing!

Oh, my! - What's wrong?

Mangoes! I forgot about them again!

Raw mangoes! - Raw mangoes?

Yes. I had to fetch them for the pickle..

Hey! What are you doing here?

Well.. I was just passing by!

So, which mango would you want me to knock off?

Can you really shoot down the mango I want?

That's child's play!

The best marksmen pay their respects to me

and swear they haven't seen a marksman like me!

You seem to be a damn good shot!

Sure, he is James Bond's grandson!

What was that? - Never mind. He talks nonsense.

So, which mango do you want?

That one there. This one and the one over there.

My word! Your friend is a great shot, too!

Oh, yes. Bright chap, you know?

I'm still teaching him. He'll learn soon.

Can you teach me, too?

Certainly! I can teach you, too!

In fact, I can teach you in a matter of two days.

In just two days? - Of course.

There have been people whom he has taught in just a couple of hours!

In just a couple of hours? - He talks nonsense, you know!

Well, come with me if you wish to learn to shoot.

Can you see that mango there?

You can see it, can't you? - Sure.

Now, hold the gun. Go on.

And bring this other hand

over here.

Now, place this finger on the trigger. - Okay.

Now, close your eye..

I have already shut my eyes!

What is he talking about?

The usual nonsense!

Now, close your eye. - Very well.

Done?

Now.. Can you see that mango?

Strange! How can I see the mango when I've shut my eyes?

Have you shut both your eyes? - Of course!

But you must shut only your left eye. This one!

Now, use your other eye to aim at the mango.

Okay. And what do I do now? - Now? Well..

Now, press the trigger!

He's found his mark!

I thought I was learning how to handle a gun.

But now, I smell a rat!

A rat? What is that? I-l don't understand!

But I have understood perfectly well!

You city-bred guys think that we, the country folks, are morons!

But Basanti could very well

teach you a lesson!

I was only teaching you! Y-You're misunderstanding me!

I understand you very well!

Sit here with your gun! I'm going home!

Goodbye!

Mr. Thakur!

Mr. Thakur!

Kashiram! Dholiya! Where the hell are all of you?

Come, Shankar. What have you brought?

It's some corn, sir.

Bloody fool! You give us a handful of corn?

You want to feed the guests at your daughter's wedding with the rest?

Believe me, sir! I've brought all I had!

We need just one bullet

to blow your brains out!

The stinking bastard!

And what have you got, Dholiya?

It's wheat, sir.

Very well. Keep all the stuff there.

Hold it.

Welcome, Mr. Thakur!

You're still alive?

Yes. And as long as I breathe

tell Gabbar you won't even get a grain from this village.

And who's going to stop us? You?

Yes. My men and I will.

These men?

Heard that, guys? Thakur has built an army of eunuchs!

Death hovers over your head, Kaalia!

Just look around!

Just two? Is that all?

That's enough for you.

Kashiram, have all the things taken back.

Think it over, Thakur.

When Gabbar gets to know

that people of this village refuse to give him food grains

there could be a lot of bloodshed.

Why do you wish..

Get lost!

And tell Gabbar

that the people of Ramgarh have stopped feeding mad dogs!

Go away!

All right, Thakur! I will go away!

Let's go!

How many were there?

There were two of them, Chief.

I see!

Two guys!

Goddamned bastards!

There were just two of them and you, three!

You have still returned

empty-handed!

What did you expect?

That I would be delighted?

That I would congratulate you?

Shame on you!

Hey, Sambha!

How much reward has the government placed on my head?

Rs. 50,000!

Did you hear him?

50 grand!

And that's only because

when children, even 5O miles away from here

holler away in the nights

their mothers ask them to go to sleep

lest Gabbar Singh would arrive!

And these three bastards..

They've stomped my reputation to dust!

You will be punished. You certainly will!

How many bullets does this gun have? - What?

How many bullets in this? - There are six, Chief. - Six.

Six bullets.

This gun has six bullets.

Six bullets forjust three men.

That's not fair!

It's okay now. It's fine now.

Now, three chambers hold bullets and three are empty.

I'll just roll it over now.

I don't know now where the bullets are

or where they are not.

I know nothing!

This gun now holds three lives

and three deaths.

Let's see what they get.

The bastard has escaped!

He has escaped, too!

What's going to happen to you, Kaalia?

C-Chief, I've served you since forever.

So, here is a bullet for you now.

This is amazing!

All three have escaped! All three.

All three bastards got lucky!

They..

All three have escaped!

Death to the cowards!

When is Holi? When is it? When?

"Let's go, girls! - Let's go, girls!"

"Come on, mates! - Come on, mates!"

"Grab her! Grab her.. Don't let her go!"

"Careful, don't break my wrist!"

"Hey, wait up, ma'am! - Hey, get lost, you drunkard!"

"What's up, dude? - Meet me in the alley!"

"It's Holi.. - We'll have sweet balls of hemp!"

"Hey, tantrum thrower! - I will abuse you!"

"Hey, Ramu's sister-in-law! - It's Holi!"

"On the day of Holi we are happy"

"as the colours blend with each other."

"On the day of Holi we are happy"

"as the colours blend with each other."

"Friends, let's keep aside our resentment."

"Even enemies hug each other!"

"On the day of Holi we are happy"

"as the colours blend with each other."

"On the day of Holi we are happy"

"as the colours blend with each other."

I“t'% Holiy!

"Your skin is so fair"

"I will create a colour to match it."

"With your rosy cheeks"

"I will steal some pink colour."

"Go away, you romantic fool!"

"Using Holi as an excuse, you.."

"Go away, you romantic fool!"

"Using Holi as an excuse, you"

"don't tease me shamelessly!"

"Ask the world. With this excuse"

"two hearts play give and take."

"On the day of Holi we are happy"

"as the colours blend with each other."

"if this is what you wish"

"then, fine! You be happy."

"Don't get too close to touch me."

"You can spray me from afar."

"Are you an egg of diamond?"

"Are you made of clay?"

"Are you an egg of diamond?"

"Are you made of clay?"

"That you will shatter when I touch you!"

"When thorns touch the soft flowers"

"their skin gets scraped."

"On the day of Holi we are happy"

"as the colours blend with each other."

"Friends, let's keep aside our resentment."

"Even enemies hug each other."

"On the day of Holi we are happy"

"as the colours blend with each other."

"as the colours blend with each other."

"On the day of Holi we are happy"

"as the colours blend with each other."

I see! So, this is Thakur's soldier!

Sambha, Kaalia told us there were two of them.

Where is the other one?

Where are you, soldier?

Hey, soldier! Where is your partner?

Speak up!

Listen up, you other soldier!

Will you step out? Or do I gun down your friend here?

Hold it!

Welcome!

Welcome!

We now have you in our clutches!

Welcome..

Good boy!

Well, Thakur?

You brought these guys to protect Ramgarh, did you?

To take on Gabbar, did you?

Listen up, you villagers!

Take a look out here!

These are the guys who came here to protect you from me!

Have they lost their pluck? All of it?

There's only one man who can save you

from Gabbar's wrath!

And that's Gabbar himself!

In exchange for your security

if we take some provisions from you

that is no crime or injustice!

No crime, I say! It's no injustice!

That's it then!

Should anyone dare to raise his head again

I will..

Yes! The heads!

You think these guys are accomplished fighters, don't you?

These hired gunmen will

now place their heads at my feet

and beg for mercy!

They will fall at my feet!

You've heard me? Have you?

Those heads of yours at my feet!

Come on.

Move, I say!

Jai!

Let's go, Dhanno!

Sambha!

We can't wage this battle for you anymore, Mr. Thakur!

We held you in great respect. But it's all over now!

We came here for the brave inspector

who waged a lone battle against a gang of bandits

in the goods train.

We didn't come here for a coward

who couldn't even pick up the gun lying before him

to save our lives!

It's okay if you wish to leave.

You can go.

Before you leave

wouldn't you want to know the reason

why I didn't pick up the gun lying here?

What could be the reason? You're a coward!

No!

It's a long story.

It goes back to the days

when I was posted at the Belapur Police Station.

We got information

that Gabbar was going to loot Haripur Village.

The police confronted them at the right time

and the bandits had to flee.

And I went after Gabbar.

Let me go.. Leave me, you bastard!

Gabbar Singh, this is no arm! This is a noose!

In view of the testimonies and the evidence at hand

this court reaches the conclusion

that Gabbar Singh is a dangerous and professional criminal.

This court, therefore, holding him guilty of dacoity

sentences him to 2O years of rigorous imprisonment.

I'll remember you. I will surely remember you.

After 2O years in the prison

you will forget everything, Gabbar.

No prison in the world has walls strong enough

to hold Gabbar captive for 2O long years.

And the day I escape

you will regret it, Thakur.

You're going to regret it.

Take him away.

This enmity is going to cost you dearly, Thakur!

Mark my words! You..

Mr. Thakur, congratulations!

Another criminal you've nabbed is coming to my prison.

He's a dangerous man, Jailer. You'd better be careful.

I'm glad your application for leave has come through.

It had to anyway.

You're going on leave after a very long time.

Mr. Khurana, had I not taken leave now

my family would have stopped talking to me.

It's the same story with everyone in our profession.

I face the same problem.

Who all are there in your family?

Well, I have two sons

who are married and a daughter of marriageable age, too.

I want to find a nice groom for her this time.

I also have a grandson.

Really? You don't look so old!

We, in the village, get married very early in life.

An early marriage means you become a father early too.

Since I got my son married early, I got a grandchild at this age.

In fact, he's about 8 years of age.

Old enough to take of fence if you don't visit him on leave?

You bet!

I'm carrying gifts for everyone in order to pacify them.

There you are then! I've never accepted a bribe in my life.

But I have to bribe my family whenever I go home!

I must take your leave now. - Well, goodbye! Best of luck!

Thank you!

Sir! - What is it, Ram Singh? - Gabbar Singh has escaped, sir!

Gabbar Singh has escaped? - Yes, sir!

Great! You've missed again!

You're no good, Uncle!

Oh, sure! Your father has been hunting lions, hasn't he?

Just shut up!

You're going to the station to receive grandpa, aren't you?

May I come along too? - Go and ask your mother.

Why don't you tell her?

Just tell her that you're going with me. Go on.

Mother.. Mother!

Let me cut the vegetables.

May I go to the station with uncle, Mother?

No. You're not going to the station.

Ma'am, I've asked someone to fix the main gate.

And here are the things

you had asked for.

Ms. Radha! - I'm coming!

The keys.

I'm going to the temple. But if there is anything I can do..

Go on. I'll handle it.

Let's go, Ramlal. - Give me that.

May I go to the station, Mother? - For the last time, no!

Let him go if he wants to.

No way. There are always so many trains passing by.

I'm scared.

The trains seem to have an axe to grind against your son.

They'll leave their tracks to go after him!

You have a funny logic. I see!

So, you're preparing the vegetable that father likes!

Let him go, I say. - Okay! Go ahead and spoil him!

Will you go like this? Go and have a bath.

Ask your aunt to.. Nirmala!

Yes, Sister-in-law?

Will you get a set of clothes out for the kid?

Sure, right away.

Go on.

Now, you've started chewing on the raw vegetables?

They're all busy today to impress father!

As if you get a witch to do the chores every day!

This wheel is still lying here?

Old age has got to Ramlal, it seems.

I'd asked him to have the drawing room

and father's room cleaned. But I don't see him anywhere.

He has gone to the temple with Radha.

He will do it after he returns.

Hey, Ninni! - Yes, Brother?

Have a bath and get ready! Aren't we going to the station?

I'll join you in a minute!

Rukmini..

I can't figure out how this novice hunter found a wife like Radha.

It was I who asked father-in-law to pursue the alliance.

But does anyone even acknowledge what I've done?

I've found him a wife who's one in a million!

Or girls nowadays

ask for a division the day they are married.

Wait and watch what a great match I find for Nimmo next.

Ninni!

No!

Gabbar?

Yes..

Welcome, Thakur.

I knew for sure that you'd come here.

The ass struggles!

You scoundrel! Bloody dog!

Curse me as much as you wish! To your heart's content!

You bastard! - Yes! Shout some more!

Remember? I cried the other day and you watched the fun?

You will cry your lungs out today

and I will watch the fun!

Know what, Sambha?

I was livid at the court that day. So very furious!

I could have wrung his neck then and there! That bastard!

But I couldn't help it! I was held by four bloody cops!

Handcuffs in my hands and my legs shackled! Remember?

DO you?

Any last wish, Thakur?

There's still a lot of life in your arms.

Tie him up!

I'm not going to kill you now.

After I'm through with you

the world will spit on you.

Your arms are full of life!

His arms are strong enough to pull down a running horse!

Your arms are full of life!

Do you remember what you had once told me?

They aren't arms, but a noose!

But see now! The noose has come undone!

It is at my mercy now!

Arms full of life, aren't they?

These arms..

Give them to me, Thakur. - No!

Give me your arms, Thakur! - No!

Did you see anything else? - No, sir.

We shut our doors and windows when we heard the gunfire.

I see. Very well.

Put your thumb impression here. - Very well, sir.

Over here.

Hello, Mr. Thakur.

I've got to know about what happened here from these folks.

I wanted to discuss something else with you.

The police want Gabbar, dead or alive.

You will have him one day, Inspector.

Is there something you can tell me about Gabbar Singh?

No.

Okay. That's all I wanted to know.

Thank you, Mr. Thakur.

Good day.

Mr. Thakur, we don't want

the money.

Please take it back.

But please don't think we won't carry out the mission for you.

But didn't you say that you only work for money?

Well, we..

We will get the money anyway.

Once we have killed Gabbar.. - You will not kill Gabbar!

You are hereto catch Gabbar alive and hand him over to me.

Give me your word! You will hand him over to me, alive!

We give you our word, Mr. Thakur.

But please take the money back.

Girija, the blacksmith, brings some news from Pipri Village, sir.

You might meet Gabbar again very soon.

Come on.

Greetings, Mr. Thakur. - Greetings.

So, what news have you brought, Girija?

There are some gypsies camping near Pipri, Mr. Thakur.

Hira and his friends are there too.

Hira is the one who sells arms and ammunition to Gabbar.

Gabbar is bound to meet him in a couple of days.

Strike when the iron is hot.

"Darling! Oh, darling!"

"Darling! Oh, darling!"

"Flowers blossom in the gardens, when we meet in the desert.."

"Flowers blossom in the gardens, when we meet in the desert.."

"You and me!"

"Darling! Oh, darling!"

"Flowers blossom in the gardens, when we meet in the desert.."

"Flowers blossom in the gardens, when we meet in the desert.."

"You and me!"

"Flowers come from spring."

"The moon comes from the stars."

"Flowers come from spring. The moon comes from the stars."

"The day gives way to night."

"Darling! Oh, darling!"

"Flowers blossom in the gardens, when we meet in the desert.."

"Flowers blossom in the gardens, when we meet in the desert.."

"You and me!"

"On the road to love and beauty.."

"In your arms, in your eyes.."

"On the road to love and beauty.. In your arms, in your eyes.."

"My heart drowns!"

"Darling! Oh, darling!"

"Flowers blossom in the gardens, when we meet in the desert.."

"Flowers blossom in the gardens, when we meet in the desert.."

"You and me!"

"Darling! Oh, darling!"

"Darling! Oh, darling!"

Ramlal..

My God! What happened to him?

Don't worry. The bullet has just grazed his arm.

It's not a serious injury.

We blew up almost all their arms and explosives, Mr. Thakur

but Gabbar managed to escape.

It's okay. We'll get him again someday.

Take a swig, partner. Your troubles will vanish.

Should you stop drinking, it will reduce most of your troubles.

How about you? - No, thank you.

Greetings, Mr. Rahim. I have a letter for you.

Here you go. - It must be from Jabalpur.

Please read it for me, Gulzarilal. - Certainly.

Where are my glasses? I'd put it in my pocket!

What you are looking for is here with me!

Here you go! - The Chatterbox is here, isn't she?

Actually, we were coming from the opposite directions.

You were on your bicycle and I was on foot.

You dropped your glasses and I picked them up!

I guessed as much that the glasses must belong to you.

The funny part is, it's really yours. Actually..

If you rest your mouth a little, I'd know what the letter says.

I'll listen to you later. - Okay! When did I refuse?

Go ahead, Gulzarilal.

It begins with a greeting. - Greetings to him, too.

'Everything is fine here'

'and we pray for your well-being.'

'The good news is that the job for Ahmed has been finalised.'

'He will get a salary of Rs. 200.'

'He can very well stay with us.'

It's good that he will be under his uncle's supervision.

Oh, yes! That's wonderful! That's just what I wanted, too.

'It wouldn't be proper to delay this matter anymore.'

'I hope you would treat this letter like a telegram.'

'Please arrange to send Ahmed here at the earliest.'

'Everything else is fine here. My folks send you their regards.'

'Yours..' - Mukait Ullah. - Yes.

I will not listen to any excuse from Ahmed now.

That's right. But he's very much here.

Let me tell you, Father. I'm not going there.

This is like.. - This boy is a fool!

I have one foot in the grave

and you have your life ahead of you!

For how long will you cling on to me?

You don't find such jobs every day.

Your father is right, dear.

In fact, I've heard of people

praying at temples in the cities for a job..

The temple! - What's wrong?

Actually, I was headed for the temple

and happened to find his glasses.

That's it! I forgot where I was going!

But I've remembered it now!

Hey, Veeru! There goes your horse-cart girl.

Well, Basanti.. You're on foot today?

Has your mare run away with the cart?

You still don't understand

that no one elopes out here.

My mare is honourably at home and today, being a Monday

aunt told me

that if I pray to Lord Shiva every Monday

I'll get a husband that the world would be envious of.

I said, okay. I don't intend to marry a burn anyway.

Okay, then. I must leave. Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord!

Lord..

There is nothing in the world that is hidden from You.

You are omniscient, Lord!

I don't say that You have forgotten it.

But it's always good to remind You.

Today's a Monday, and I have a small request, Lord.

Look at my hands

rough and rugged from holding the reins!

And what problems could You have, Lord'?

Get me married into a family where I would rule like a queen!

Life's got to be fun!

I leave the rest to You.

Young lady..

Who spoke?

It is I who has spoken!

Lord! It's You! This is a miracle!

I have found a match for you, lady.

In just one Monday? That's excellent, Lord!

You must obviously have chosen the best!

Could You tell me the name, perhaps?

Or do I come again next week?

I will do as You say, Lord.

His name is Veeru.

Veeru?

This has to do with my life! Please don't make haste, Lord!

I wouldn't mind You taking a few Mondays more.

He's okay to look at, but he's a bloody smart-ass!

Silence, maiden!

I never talk without reason, Lord!

I'll do as You say!

If you don't obey my command

you will remain a spinster all your life!

Forgive me, Lord!

One more thing! - Well..

You will continue to drive the horse-cart all your life!

I now command you to go

and tell your aunt, in no uncertain terms

that it is Veeru who will be your companion for life!

To respect and honour Veeru hereafter

shall be your prime duty!

Because your heavens lie at his feet!

Should you please him

I shall be pleased!

And if you irritate him

I shall be enraged!

Really? - Shush!

So, go to him..

Basanfi? Basanfiuvvel.

B-Basanti..

I thought I would..

You thought this village belle has no brains!

And as such, you could fool me!

You think you're smart!

But I could outsmart guys like you!

Now, you better ponder over your actions.

I am going home. Bye!

Basanfi! At least, listen to me!

"When a beautiful girl throws tantrums"

"They throw a fit very often."

"These horse-cart drivers!"

"Then.."

"It gathers speed and disappears."

"It gathers speed and disappears."

Jai..

I've thought of something today.

You must do that once in a while.

I've taken a very crucial decision today.

I know what your decision is. You want to marry Basanti.

That's wonderful! You're a true friend!

Only a friend could know how I feel!

But I also know

this is the eighth time you've decided to marry this year.

But this is final!

Really? No wonder! You've been drinking since morning, right?

Will you do something for me? - What is it?

Go and talk to Basanti's aunt and make such an impression

that the old lady gives her consent to this alliance in no time!

Why must I do that? - Come on!

It's the groom's folks who approach the bride's parents!

Besides, you're the only one I have in the world, my friend!

You have to get married, okay? So, go and do this yourself.

Give it a thought. A cosy home, after I get married.

A home that is yours. - A loving wife..

Your wife. - A handful of kids..

All yours, too. - You're the one they'd call uncle!

They'll forever pester you, play with you all the time

and ask you to tell them a story!

Which means I'm going to play the maidservant in your house.

It's clear now! You are no friend!

To hell with such a..

Acting pricey, aren't you?

Because no one else can do this for me?

Had only my mother been alive, I'd have settled down in life!

I'd even have had kids!

Had my old man been around

he'd have celebrated my wedding in style!

If I had brothers and sisters, they'd have begged the old lady

but seen to it that I get married to Basanti.

But don't you forget!

Those without any support have God on their side!

Lord Almighty!

You're not the friend I knew!

You don't want me to give up crime and settle down in life!

I used to think so highly of you, Jai.

I was so wrong!

The bloody clown!

He's forever up to theatrics!

Cut the act! I'll go and talk it over with the old lady.

Will you, really?

An unmarried girl at home

is like a burden on the soul.

I can be at peace only when Basanti is married.

You're right. You are indeed bearing a burden.

But I can't just dump her in a well, can I?

Please don't mind, but I must ask

about the suitor's family, his habits and his earnings.

As far as earnings go

once he is married

he will start earning to fend for them.

Doesn't he earn anything at the moment, then?

Of course, he does! When did I say that he doesn't?

It's like this. No one can win all the time, right?

There are times the poor chap even loses money.

Loses money? - That's right.

But that's gambling, you know?

There's little I can say about it.

My God! Is he a gambler?

Not at all, ma'am!

It's a shame to call him a gambler!

He's a gem of a person, decent and straight.

But when someone is high on liquor

he can't see things in perspective.

They force him into gambling. How's poor Veeru to be blamed?

You're right, dear.

A drinker and a gambler, and yet, faultless!

You're misunderstanding my friend.

He's an innocent, young chap.

Just get him married to Basanti.

He'll give up drinking and gambling in no time!

Don't tell me. I know better.

Has anyone ever been able to kick habits

like drinking and gambling?

You don't know Veeru. Believe me, he's not at all like that.

Once he's married, he'll stop visiting the nautch girl.

His drinking problem will be solved on its own!

Good Lord! That's all he lacked!

He even visits brothels, does he?

So, what's wrong with that?

Even kings and princes have often patronised nautch girls!

I see.

But can you tell me which family your friend hails from?

We'll let you know that the moment we get to know of it!

I must say one thing, dear.

For all your friend's vices

you can only praise him!

I can't help it. I'm really soft at heart.

So, shall I consider this alliance to be finalised?

Finalised? It's okay even if she remains a spinster all her life!

But I will not let Basanti marry such a man!

I'm her aunt, not her stepmother!

It's strange that you refuse despite the best of my efforts.

Poor Veeru.

I don't know how he will deal with this.

I'll jump to my death!

Out of my way!

Hey, watch it! What are you doing?

I'm doing

just what every legendary lover

has done!

Including Romeo and Juliet!

Suicide..

Suicide!

Well.. What is 'suicide'?

When the English die, they call it suicide.

But why do the English die? - Well..

What's up, fella? Why do you wish to commit suicide?

You'd rather not ask! You'll break into tears!

It's a very sad story!

It has emotions, drama and tragedy!

You know Basanti, don't you? I was going to marry her.

But her wicked aunt has been an obstacle!

I can't live in this big, bad world, anymore!

I bid you farewell, villagers!

Goodbye!

Goodbye!

Well.. What is 'goodbye' now?

When the English leave, it's called 'goodbye'.

But where do the English go?

Hey, villagers! Farewell!

God Almighty! Here I come!

Hold it! Wait.. - What?

You want me to wait?

If you insist, I'll wait for a while.

Hey, you call yourself a friend? You're sitting here unaffected!

Why? What's wrong? - How am I to know?

Look at your friend! He's climbed all the way up there!

You see that, don't you?

Yes, I do. But nothing's going to happen.

He'll climb down when he sobers down.

I've seen many cruel people.

But not a heartless friend like you!

Hey, watch out!

I have no one in the world! Neither friend, nor buddy..

So, I'm going to end my life!

But I must warn you, villagers!

Where a lover ends his life

the village is wrought with calamities!

What calamities will we have to face?

There will be famine and drought!

Diseases and death!

And all that only for the sake of that old hag!

That old hag indeed! - My God!

You will see for yourselves! When I die

the police will arrive

and take the old hag away to jail!

In jail, the old hag will labour

on the grindstone..

You'd better agree, ma'am. Or he'll kill himself!

But how can I agree, Mr. Dinanath?

Hey, villagers!

You don't have to beg for anything from the hag.

Nothing can stop me now!

I will certainly end my life!

Here goes! One, two, three..

Please, Aunt! Give your consent!

You'd better agree

or do the rounds of the courts and police stations!

But I've never been to a court or a police station!

Then, you'd better agree. - All right.

Wait, Veeru! I agree!

The old lady has agreed! Now, quietly come down! - Yes..

Who wants to marry the old lady?

It's Dhanno.. I mean, it's Basanti I want to marry.

I'm willing to marry you, Veeru! Come down now!

Hear that, villagers?

The old lady is ready and so is Basanti!

So, I cancel my plan to die!

I'm coming down, ma'am.

I'm coming down.

Hey, careful.. - What are you doing?

What am I going to do now?

God, Basanti's aunt has given her consent! - Be careful!

So long, Father. - You're leaving?

Go on. May God protect you.

Write to me the moment you reach there. - Okay, Father.

You never eat on time. Look after your health, okay?

As my father, God bless his soul, used to say..

'In good health lies true happiness and wealth.'

Let me walk with you for a while. I'll get myself some air, too.

It's okay, Father. Take rest. I'll manage.

Really? Okay, then. Give me a hug then.

Hurry up, Junga. I hold the queen of clubs.

That's okay, Samba. But look there, an easy prey.

Chief.. - Yes?

This boy is from Ramgarh.

He was on his way to the station when we found him.

Ahmed!

Basanfi!

Hey, Basanti!

Why such an eerie silence?

Mr. Rahim.. - Who's that?

Veeru?

Why is everyone so quiet, dear?

Please come with me.

Please come. - What's wrong?

What is it, dear? Where are you leading me..

Who's that?

Ahmed?

A-Ahmed!

Ahmed!

May your soul

rest in peace.

Mr. Rahim, l..

How will you console him, Thakur? You're responsible for all this.

It's true!

And you villagers also listen

to this letter from Gabbar!

Addressed to the people of Ramgarh, it says..

'Look at the consequences of challenging me'

'at Thakur's instigation.'

'Should you folks still not mend your ways'

'death shall perform its ugly dance'

'in every courtyard of Ramgarh!'

'Should you care for the lives of your family and children'

'at dawn tomorrow'

'hand over Thakur's men to me, at the old hillock.'

'Gabbar Singh, chief of the bandits.'

You have put us in such a grave danger, Thakur!

What have you done?

Dinanath..

To lead an honourable life, we will have to pay a price.

And we can pay the bandits with food grains for our lives.

We can't pay them with our children's lives!

We're farmers, after all. We are not soldiers.

You are right, Shankar. We are indeed farmers.

This has been a country of farmers for many ages.

But whenever someone evil has mounted an attack on this land

by God, it was farmers who melted their ploughs into swords!

It's not the blood of cowards that flows in our veins.

It's not the blood of cowards that flows in our veins!

But how is violence and bloodshed going to help?

Non-violence has its place, too.

I do believe in non-violence.

But it won't be an act of non-violence

to grovel before a wicked and evil man!

It's nothing, but cowardliness! Plain spinelessness!

Those who don't bow down get broken, Thakur!

Thakur can neither be made to bow nor be broken down!

Thakur can only die, Kashiram!

But I will live in dignity as long as I live!

For how long are you going to live?

And for how long will we live

with these guys around in the village?

If you think you can save your children's lives

by handing us over to Gabbar Singh

you can very well give us up to Gabbar. We are ready.

Yes. We must do the right thing now.

We can't bear the burden of this problem anymore.

Who's speaking of not bearing the burden?

Do you know what the biggest burden in the world is?

A father bearing the bier of his son!

There can be no burden heavier than this.

An old man like me is willing to bear this burden

and you refuse to combat a problem?

There's something I very strongly believe in.

An honourable death is any day better than a life of humiliation.

It's I who has lost a son.

But I'd still want both of them to stay in this village.

I leave the rest to you.

It's time for my prayers.

I will ask God today

why He did not give me

some more sons to be sacrificed for the village.

Will someone please walk me till the mosque?

Come.

Let's go.

What's that? A letter?

Of course, you idiot! Read it.

'For every villager you kill, Gabbar Singh'

'we will slay four of your men.' - What?

Justcheck

if it's those guys? Or have they dumped someone else here?

'For every villager you kill, Gabbar Singh'

'we will slay four of your men.'

The fun begins now!

It's been ages since I've run into someone who boasts so much!

The game has now got enlivened!

And this game

will end with the lives of these two guys.

Along with every family and household in Ramgarh!

Here you go.

It was really bothering you.

She's a very unfortunate girl.

It's almost as if she has forgotten how to speak.

As for earlier..

I'm always reminded of those days

when I first visited her village with my master.

It was on the festival of colours.

Hey! That's enough!

It's the festival of colours! No one can take offense!

How will I celebrate Holi with your father

if you douse all the colours on me?

How will you celebrate Holi

with my father in any case?

He just doesn't know how to celebrate Holi!

He's been sitting at home all day!

Either he touches the feet of the elders visiting him

or the younger ones touch his feet as a mark of respect.

They apply a pinch of colour

on each other's forehead

embrace each other and that's it! They've celebrated it!

That's no way of celebrating it! It's us who really celebrate it!

Really? And how do you celebrate it?

We?

You know Pare, don't you'?

Paro? - Yes! Paro!

There's a tank in her courtyard.

We've mixed all the colours in it!

Where folks normally douse colour on people

we dump people in the colours!

The moment we spot someone, he goes straight into the tank!

I hope you don't have a tank of colours in your house!

Or Ramlal and I will find ourselves neck-deep in it.

Watch what I do!

Anyone home, sir?

Who's that?

I've scared you again! - You're crazy!

Oh, Mr. Thakur! You didn't even tell me!

Welcome! Happy Holi! - You too!

What are you standing there for?

Won't you bring some sweets for Mr. Thakur?

Just a moment..

Must I bring the plate too? - Which one?

The one from which you will take a pinch of colour..

Sure, go ahead and bring it.

Please come, Mr. Thakur.

Let's go and sit there, it's a ruckus out here.

- So, Ramlal? ls everything fine'? - I'm fine, thank you, sir.

Well, Thakur? I hope you've had a nice crop this year.

Actually, I'm an outsider in my own house.

It's Ramlal who knows everything about my farms.

It's he who oversees things in our farms.

Sweets for everyone..

Open your mouth, Mr. Thakur!

That's enough, dear..

Come on, Ramlal. Open your mouth!

Give it to me, dear. I'll have it. - No way!

I will feed you! - Give it to me, dear. - No!

She's like your daughter, Ramlal. Let her feed you. - Exactly!

He's right. Now, open your mouth!

My God!

How could I forget the plate with the colours?

She's a very jovial girl.

You bet! She's always kicking up a racket!

Here I come with the plate of colours!

Here's the plate of colours for you to take a pinch out of it!

I'm leaving! - Where are you going?

I'm going to my friends to celebrate Holi!

May I?

Haven't you had enough of the colours yet?

Come on, Mr. Thakur!

It's a festival of colours!

Red, yellow, blue, green..

How can anyone ever have enough of colours?

I ask you. Wouldn't the world be so dull without these colours?

How dull and lifeless her world has suddenly come to be!

I tell you.

With her tears having washed away all the colours in her life

what can she look forward to in life?

Well, Veeru..

I've taken a decision.

Oh, really?

So, you've started taking decisions too?

Yes. Well..

When you are into it, I think I'd rather do it too.

What is that? - Get married.

Get married?

You want to get married?

That's the plan. I've had enough.

I've now decided to lead a straight and simple life.

In which I have a house of my own, a wife, many children

who would pester you for stories..

Hey! That's enough! Sit down here, will you?

Sit down. Come on, sit!

I hope you know that you need a girl to get married to!

So, do you have any girl in mind then?

Yes, I have. - May I ask who she is?

Radha! - Radha?

That Radha?

Have you lost your mind? Don't you know who she is?

Look, Veeru..

Even thugs and criminals are given a second chance in life.

Besides, Radha has done nothing wrong.

Has she got no right to start her life afresh?

But how is that possible, Mr. Thakur?

What will the society and community think of it?

The society and community

are meant to save men from loneliness, Mr. Narmada.

They're not meant to isolate someone.

Besides, must we let Radha suffer in silence

for the fear of society?

How long are we going to live anyway?

We might soon be dead.

Whose support will she live on?

Whom will she turn to?

It was because of all this that I came to you.

But you are her father. I leave the decision to you.

Not at all, Mr. Thakur. She's your daughter now.

Whatever you decide will be best for her.

I'd still want you to meet Jai once.

I'll send him over in a couple of days.

Jai?

A penny for your thoughts!

It's nothing.

I set it!

I know what you're worried about.

You're wondering whether your proposal will come through.

I suggest you to toss the coin.

If it's heads, it's going to be okay. Or else.. Well!

Veeru..

If everything works out well

why don't we settle down here, in this village?

There! You've spoken my mind!

I've been thinking of this, too.

It's no use being thieves all our lives.

We've spent enough time in prisons.

Once we get the money

we'll buy some land here

turn into farmers and settle down.

But we don't know how to plough! How will we be farmers?

Our vices taught us to wield guns.

Our virtues will teach us how to plough.

You do have a point.

Necessity does teach a man a lot in life.

I've already worked out everything for myself!

I'll marry my horse-cart girl

and father a couple of children in as many years.

I've even thought of the brats' names!

And when I ask my wife where the kids are

she'll say..

'You should know better.'

'They must be with your friend, Jai, to listen to stories.'

Why must you always send your children to me for stories?

What's that about?

You know I can't remember these bloody stories, Jai!

Can't remember, it seems!

You don't even remember what happened yesterday.

Yesterday? Of course, I remember, I had met Basanti yesterday!

We've promised to meet at the lake this morning!

This morning? - Yes!

See you!

Let's go, Dhanno!

Let's go! It's the question of my honour today!

Come on!

Come on, Dhanno! Faster!

Faster, Dhanno! Faster!

Hey, Samba!

What do these guys in Ramgarh feed their daughters with?

Just check her out.

She's one hell of a spicy doll, isn't she?

Damn spicy, all right!

Chief, remember how we discreetly went

to Jamnadas' daughter's wedding last year?

She'd given a terrific dance performance there.

WOW!

She must be a sizzling dancer!

Show us a couple of steps, darling.

Now, look, lassie..

Don't you act too pricey!

Or I'll scratch off this beautiful skin.

Got it?

Veeru!

Wait a minute, darling.

Tie the bastard up!

You seem to be thick with him!

Well, soldier?

The tables have turned, don't you think?

Hey!

Do you have an affair with that babe?

You bastard!

I've yet to see a creep like you!

You won't get to see one either.

Because your life is now going to end.

The bastard.. - No!

You guys seem to be pretty close!

You're pretty thick, aren't you?

Hey, Samba!

Pick up your gun

and aim at this cur!

Now, listen to me, darling.

If you wish to save your lover

show us some dance.

No!

Don't you dare dance before these dogs, Basanti!

Sambha!

Delay it any longer

and we'll blow your lover's brains out!

There's another thing I must tell you, darling.

That man will breathe only till you continue to dance.

The gun will go off the moment your feet stop moving.

"Till I have life left in me.."

"My love.."

"I will dance."

"Till I have life left in me, my love"

"I will dance."

"Till I have life left in me, my love"

"I will dance."

"Till I have life left in me.."

"My love.."

"I will dance."

"Love never ever dies."

"It's not even scared of death."

"Love never ever dies."

"It's not even scared of death."

"We may be robbed or destroyed. We may die!"

"What will stay alive is our saga."

"Till I have life left in me.."

"My love.."

"I will dance."

"So what if my anklet breaks?"

"So what if I injure my legs?"

"So what if my anklet breaks?"

"So what if I injure my legs?"

"I have given my heart, taken your heart. We have loved."

"And so.."

"We will have to give the test of love."

"Till I have life left in me, my love.."

"I will dance.."

"I will dance.."

"These eyes cannot be lowered."

"This mouth cannot be silenced."

"These eyes cannot be lowered."

"This mouth cannot be silenced."

"I will speak. I will bear the sorrow. I will not be silenced."

"I may be helpless, but I am not mute."

"Till I have life left in me, my love.."

"I will dance."

"Till I have life left in me, my love.."

"I will dance.."

"I will dance.."

"I will dance.."

If anyone dares to move, he's going to be dead meat!

Gabbar Singh!

Ask your men to drop their guns!

Come on!

Go after them! Go on!

And don't return empty-handed, you bastards!

Hurry UP!

Jai, are you all right? - Yes, I'm okay.

The three of us can't escape on a single horse, Veeru.

I'll hold them here.

Take Basanti away to the village

and return with some boxes of ammunition. Hurry!

No! I will stay back! You leave with Basanti quickly!

Listen to me, Veeru!

Take Basanti away! I'll stay here.

No, Jai! I can't leave you alone!

One of us will have to go, Veeru.

Or else, we'll soon run out of bullets.

Well, all right. Let's toss instead.

If it's heads, I stay back. If it's tails, you hold fort.

I win!

But how can I leave.. - No more arguments, Veeru!

Leave your gun and bullets behind.

And leave with Basanti quickly! Go on!

I don't feel like leaving you alone, Jai.

Take care, okay? - Sure.

Gulab Singh!

There's just one bullet!

Jai!

Jai!

Jai! Jai..

Are you okay, Jai? - Yes.. Yes, Veeru. I'm okay.

I've killed every single bastard..

Jai! Don't worry, Jai! Don't you worry!

Why should I be scared when you're with me, Veeru?

Let's return to our village! Everything will be all right!

My game is up, Veeru.

No! - It's all over. - No!

No, Jai! Don't say such things!

But I have no regrets, Veeru.

I have lived for my friend. And I am dying before him!

But there is something I'm leaving unfinished, Veeru.

I won't be able to narrate stories to your children.

You're going to be all right, Jai!

You will be fine!

But, Veeru..

You must tell your children the tales of our friendship.

You won't forget that, will you?

What nonsense are you talking?

Look there, Veeru. Look.

There's yet another incomplete story, Veeru.

For all my dreams.. - Jai!

No, Jai! You can't leave me like this!

You can't leave me, Jai!

Veeru..

Veeru! - No!

No! - Veeru! - No, Jai! No!

No, Jai!

Jai! You can't do this to me!

"What is this that you have done?"

"You became unfaithful"

"by breaking your promise."

"You left."

"And I stand on the road"

"left"

"behind."

"You have gone ahead."

"My friend, you have changed."

"You have broken"

"our friendship."

"We will never"

"break"

"our friendship."

"Till my"

149311 breath"

"I will not leave your side.."

Jai?

You have betrayed me just to save my life?

I swear upon the blood that you have shed!

I will kill each one of them!

Each one of them!

Gabbar Singh! I'm coming!

Gabbar! Come out in the open!

Face me like a man, you bastard!

I've come to avenge every drop of blood that my friend has shed!

You can't escape death today!

Veeru!

Hand Gabbar over to me!

No, Thakur! No!

I'm not going to let this bastard live!

Don't forget your promise, Veeru!

I don't remember anything!

All I know is

this bastard's men have killed my friend!

And I'm going to have his blood for that!

It was that very friend of yours who had made a promise to me.

Leave him alone.

Thakun.

I wish it was I who had made the promise.

Then, I'd have broken it today!

But it was my friend who had given you his word.

So..

You can't fight me, Thakur!

I've already cut your arms!

One uses his feet, not his hands

to crush a snake, Gabbar!

My feet are enough to deal with you!

Your arms are full of life, aren't they?

Gabbar!

Give me this hand! - No!

Give me this hand, Gabbar! - No!

Mr. Thakur!

Let him go!

It is up to the justice system to punish a criminal.

The law needs Gabbar, Inspector.

Dead or alive!

Have your emotions overcome your duties and principles today?

Don't you hold justice and the law in respect anymore?

Mr. Thakur..

I know all about your sufferings.

But don't forget that you've been an exemplary police officer

and you are still idolised.

Well, Mr. Thakur.. I'll take your leave now.

I know I can't share your grief, Veeru. But I sure can understand.
