Listen to me carefully...

...never bend so much for a woman that she tramples all over you.

Someone’s with him.

What was that ruckus at your house today?

Were you scolding your uncle or...

- I had a fight with uncle. - Why?

He wants me to get married.

Meera!

Meera!

Meera!

Meera I...

I love you.

Which one am I?

Am I your 42nd or 42 and a half?

Pack your bags and move in with me.

Where will I stay?

In Tara and Joe’s room or aunt Leela’s room?

- In my room. - Before marriage?!

He stopped!

Meera, stop.

- Meera, please, listen to me. - Let’s go.

Stop!

I need a lift, please follow that taxi.

Please, hurry up!

Sleep with them, love them but never live with them.

For shots, why try to own the bar?

Quickly, please, my love story may end.

Relax. I’ll get you there.

Wait! Meera!

What is he doing?

Follow him.

Can’t live with them, can’t live without them.

I can’t understand a word you are saying.

Aren’t you scared?

I want to hold your hand and see the Niagara Falls!

We’ll have 2 daughters, just like you.

We’ll tonsure their heads in Pittsburg Balaji Temple. Okay?

Tell me, should I overtake or follow?

Overtake!

For how long do you know me?

We have hardly met and you talk of kids?

- I love you. - So what can I do?

Tell me, should I keep her or dump her?

The rascal is making us run!

Meera, I love you.

I love you.

Think about it.

I love...

Stop!

- Want to get us killed? - Stop!

Finished!

Kabbadi!

Kabbadi!

Kabbadi!

Damn!

Kabbadi!

Kabbadi!

Leave me.

Kabbadi!

Kabbadi!

Kabbadi!

Kabbadi!

Kabbadi!

Kabbadi!

Kabbadi!

- Kabbadi! - Lallan Singh.

Lallan!

Your bail order has arrived. Come, sir is calling you.

Kabbadi!

Shankar!

This way!

Your clothes, ring and chain.

Check it.

And this is your 40 rupees and 75 paise.

25 paise is less.

What jailor!

Living with thieves like us you have lost your sense of humour?

Yes! And this 180 rupees for the chair frame you made.

Keep it!

Get a new bucket for ward B.

Arse gets dry before it gets filled.

- I’ll leave? - Sign here, take this.

- Lolan! - Not Lolan, Lallan!

Free air. Take a deep breath, enjoy!

Same air inside, only it was mixed with prisoners’ farts.

How’s everything?

- Fine! - Come on sit!

Let’s go!

Stop fooling around!

Bengal chicks are like spicy mutton.

Lallan, you know Gopal bailed you out?

There’s something in the Hoogly water.

- He has called you at his home. - First I need to settle something.

Sashi!

Sashi.

You’re making the same mistake again!

How long are you going to suffer?

- Sashi! - She won’t come.

Are you listening?

- Sashi! - Put that in the bag.

Stop this or I call the cops.

Hey Sashi!

Can’t understand Hindi? Shall I speak in Bengali?

You dumb green shirt, shut up! This is my family matter...

...or I’ll mix some red in your green and it’ll turn yellow.

Mate. Try to understand!

Understand this pain? Or a broken arm will do?

Your father will never look at you again if you go with him.

- Spare me! - Shut up!

Come out, Sashi!

She’ll not come. Leave her!

Sashi, get in! Go!

I’ll never see your face.

Stop it. Goddess Durga is going outside.

She knows everything.

You know nothing.

Stop biting me.

I won't stop.

I want to tell you something.

Tell me.

Listen Dad has arranged a job for you. Will you do it?

- I will. - First promise me.

Promise?

- Leave my hand. - Promise?

I swear.

You’re Nilanjan Biswas’ son-in-law?

- He’s my father-in-law. - That makes you his son-in-law, right?

Check that.

- What’s my job? - To stand at the gate.

Reams of paper come from the docks.

Papers must come in with a gate pass.

A gate pass is yellow.

You mean authorization?

Yes. Without a gate pass nothing moves in or out.

My salary?

2,000 rupees per month.

10 rupees per hour as overtime.

After 6 months, salary may increase.

What’s the total value of these machines?

Why?

If I need to protect them, I must know their value.

No, your job is at the door. I’ll take care of the rest.

I’m asking for the value, not for your job.

That machine alone costs 20 million.

You can calculate the rest.

If something gets stolen, when I am off duty?

What nonsense!

Not nonsense. What if your press catches fire?

- Who’ll burn it? - Whoever, say the fire God.

Why him, even I could do it?

Sir it’s me, Sheshadri!

Nilanjan’s man is not a straight guy.

He talks too much.

I’ll talk to him.

Take this.

Hello!

Yes, sir.

No, you listen to me first. You’ll pay me 2,000 rupees.

And I’ll have to protect machines worth 20 million. Is that fair?

Listen! We are already doing a favor by giving you this job.

And now you are teaching us.

You are right! If something happens tomorrow, don’t blame me!

- Threatening me? - I’m not threatening you!

Just saying I can guarantee your safety.

Take care of me. I’ll take care of your press.

Ok fine! May evil eyes be warded off your press.

You come to my cabin and give phone to Sheshadri.

Okay.

Come Meenakshi, you’re wanted inside.

Brother Bhima, come!

Is it Bhima?

You promised me.

- What? - That you’ll take up a job.

He was giving you a job only because you’re my son-in-law.

And you tried to extort from him?

Seen that property?

Expects me to guard property worth 20 million for 2000 rupees.

No way! Lallan Singh doesn’t come so cheap.

- Whose turn is it? - Then you’ll extort money?

- Tell him, Ravi! - Me...

You lied me.

You said you’ll give up loafing.

This is not loafing, darling!

Lallan!

Take it!

Lallan! Gopal is here.

- You’re not going. - How can I if she doesn’t want me to?

Stop joking. He’s waiting for you.

- He’s very angry! - Oh! I see!

Tell Gopal, Lallan won’t come.

He doesn’t want to become a goon like him.

- What’s the job? - You’re not going.

- Important work. - What’s in it for me?

Lots!

- I’m saying no! - So don’t say it for a while.

You’re not going anywhere. I won’t let you.

Go away Ghoshal. Lallan’s not coming.

Lallan’s not coming.

Lallan, who bailed you out?

I’ll go now.

I said sit!

Know the trouble I went through, to bail you out?

You didn’t do it because of any affection for me.

Someone must have thrashed you, so you remembered me.

Why? Isn’t it!

Is this the way to talk to your elder brother?

My brother?!

While running away to Kolkatta,

He abandoned me with bread in my hand.

It took me 10 years to find him. He calls himself my brother!

- Sit! - I’m not here to sit.

You want to lie down? Shall I put a cot?

Lallan, do you wish to become something in life or keep playing cards?

It’s only Rummy.

Village committee elections will be held in 24 Paraganas.

We won’t let anyone contest.

But some college kids are instigating the villagers.

The MLA will address a public meeting. We need a crowd.

People have to be brought in trucks for that.

All those attending the meeting will get 50 rupees and a packet of rice.

We don’t want a ruckus.

You have to ensure that.

- Yes. What’s their leader’s name? - Michael.

Michael, Bhardwaj and Trilok.

- Vishnu. - Yes. There are many boys.

Want to hit them or kill them?

Lallan is not doing all this.

Lallan tell them to leave.

Ghoshal, I didn’t know that women take the decisions in this family.

Get out! Lallan won’t go.

Don’t interrupt, Sashi.

Lallan, do one thing. Dress up like a woman. I’ll get you the lingerie.

- You’ll not indulge in mugging. - I told you not to butt in.

- I won’t allow you to go. - Sashi!

- I’ll die before I let you go. - Shut up!

- Are you threatening me? - I’m pleading with you.

Just a minute! I can’t bear such scenes.

Lallan, see me after you’re done with her.

I’m going. Let’s go, Vishal.

Don’t go to him!

- She wants to save you. - Father.

- This is why I objected! - Lallan, listen to me!

- What you are doing? - Leave! - He’s a beast.

I shouldn’t have come.

- I’m leaving! - So go!

Lallan...

Go and never return back to me.

I won’t die without you.

I’m alive and kicking today on my own steam!

This isn’t your dream world.

All that I own I’ve snatched or stolen. Got beaten, gone to jail!

I don’t need you! Got it?

A 10th class pass and thinks she’s a great lady.

Reforming me!

You’ll die a dog’s death. Crows will feast on you.

Don’t cry.

Come, get up.

Sashi.

Sa...

Sashi!

Dablu!

Dablu!

- Lallan... - What is it?

- Where’s Sashi? - Why?

Where’s Sashi?!

- Leave it. - Why?!

What a man!

Beats his pregnant wife in the middle of the street!

This is common with married couples. Why...

Shut up! How can a husband beat his wife so brutally?

He hit her today, tomorrow you’ll hit me.

That’s why you support him.

- Why are you saying so? - All men are same!

- Women are no less. - Shut up!

Don’t argue!

- She is inside. - You...

“Beloved.”

“Beloved.”

“Beloved.”

“Beloved.”

“Beloved.”

“Beloved.”

Why didn’t you tell me?

- Which month? - Third.

Who’s the father?

Just joking!

Come on, smile!

I want a daughter, like you.

Cat eyes, 50 teeth!

“Bitter at times or sweet as honey.”

“Soft at times or rugged.”

“Bitter at times or sweet as honey.”

“Soft at times or rugged.”

“Is my lovable man!”

“His love lorn looks pierce my heart.”

“His love lorn looks pierce my heart.”

“My heart blushes.”

“Beloved.”

“My heart blushes.”

“Beloved.”

“My heart blushes.”

“Your recluse heart is imprisoned within me.”

“God may this love flourish.”

“If I’m disappointed, if the world mocks...”

“If I’m disappointed, if the world mocks...”

“I’ll die in shame.”

“Beloved.”

“My heart blushes.”

“Bitter at times or sweet as honey.”

“Soft at times or rugged.”

“Bitter at times or sweet as honey.”

“Soft at times or rugged.”

“Is my lovable man!”

“Blushing makes the face glow.”

“The sweet fragrance makes the mind falter.”

“Why doesn’t the darkness of tresses turn into night.”

“The moon and the stars will see.”

“The moon and the stars will see.”

“I will die in shame.”

“Beloved.”

“My heart blushes.”

Come! You’ve made us wait for long.

My hands are itching!

Come... come.

Okay fine...

- Ashok. - Yes!

- Is everything ready? - Ready.

Cold drinks...

...mineral water and biscuits.

- Put it in our account. - Okay.

- No more credit. - Who are you?

His grandpa! - What’s this hooliganism?

- I told you, we’re his grandpa. - You...

Don’t push us out!

C’mon!

Hello, officer? There’s a riot here.

Guys from Presidency College.

Come quickly.

Leave it buddy.

Lallan!

Tell me! Why ignore your studies and get into dirty politics?

Gopal is pissed off with you.

Study, write exams, become successful.

Why politics?

Which hand do you write with?

Tell me! Move it.

Then don’t say I didn’t ask you.

Come on, cops are here.

Let’s go.

Why us? What have we done?

Hello, testing!

1, 2, Lallan testing.

Testing.

Lallan speaking. Hear me?

Lallan Singh!

Stalwarts like Tagore, Rajaram Mohan Roy...

...Subhash Chandra Bose...

...Bankim Chandra Chatopadhya...

...attained enlightenment in Bengal.

Come on clap.

All of them were from Kolkatta.

From Sharat Chandra to Satyajit Ray...

...from Saurav Ganguly to Sushmita Sen...

...all have done Bengal proud.

But even then Bengal is ignored by the rest of the states.

Why? Only because we’re not ruling at the centre.

Bengalis are unique.

This is great!

This is great!

- Lallan Singh! - Lallan!

I have to go every village in 24 Paraganas.

- Hail Bangla! - Hail Bangla!

- Hail Bangla! - Hail Bangla!

- Hail Bangla! - Hail Bangla!

- Prasanjit sir! - Long live!

- Prasanjit sir! - Long live!

- Prasanjit sir! - Long live!

Come on clap!

Hey Dablu, move...

- Prasanjit sir! - Long live!

- Prasanjit sir! - Long live!

Who is Lallan?

Lallan, come here! He’s my brother!

He made all this arrangement.

- Bring him with you. - Yes.

- Prasanjit sir! - Long live!

Do you dislike me or my party?

Tell me truth.

What happened? Did he do something wrong?

What did you do?

I’ll tell you about his feat outside the college.

- Presidency College. - See?!

How he reacted! Presidency College.

He bashed up students there, didn’t spare even the girls!

- Am I right? - Yes!

Who told you to beat them?

Are you mad?

Not only this, there’s more.

He met the inspector, used my name...

...and got the boys arrested.

All sons of V.I.P.s.

I.A.S. officers.

Are you crazy?

All this is my fault. Shouldn’t have bailed out the beast.

- Finished? Now let me talk. - Shut up!

- Didn’t your rally happen smoothly? - Shut up, Lallan!

Didn’t the students cock up in fear?

Didn’t see a single damn black flag.

- What did I tell you? - What?

To take care if there’s any trouble.

- Was there? - What was the need to hit them?

They’re mum because I did.

If I hadn’t, they’d have come, there could’ve been a scuffle.

The meeting would’ve been ruined.

Who’ll answer the opposition at the assembly? You?!

Sure! Tomorrow when I get to the assembly like you, I will.

Let’s see who dares to ask me then!

He’ll do. I like him.

Very good.

Does Gopal take good care of you?

Gopal, make him your business partner in the cooking gas venture.

When I was his age, I was exactly the same.

No more hooliganism. I’ll become a businessman now.

I’ll be a well-dressed business man.

What business? Bashing people?

- Why are you giggling? - You gave him a reason to laugh.

You wait!

He’s lost it.

“Dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, coming to my new tae.”

“Dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae...”

“Greetings.”

“Dol dol dol dol...”

“Dol dol dol dol...”

“Dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, coming to my new tae.”

“Dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae...”

“Greetings.”

“Dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, coming to my new tae.”

“Dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae...”

“Greetings.”

“Dol dol dol dol...”

“Dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, coming to my new tae.”

“Dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae, dol dol marphae...”

“Greetings.”

“Dol dol dol dol...”

“Greetings.”

“Dol dol dol dol...”

“Greetings.”

“Dol dol dol dol...”

“Greetings.”

“Greetings.”

What happened?

Has the snake bitten you?

Where’s Gopal?

What happened?

What happened?

Hello.

Brother! Lallan speaking.

No physical injuries, a little shaken up.

Can’t tell if his brain’s working!

He’ll be on a holiday for a while.

He’s not capable of much right now. I’ll take care.

Who?!

Michael? Yes, I know.

It will be done.

Okay, I’ll hang up.

Thought of a name for the baby?

What a time to ask.

Think hard and give it a good one. Understood?

- How does Dumbo sound? - I’ll break your teeth.

My son will not be like me.

But you wanted a girl.

Whatever. It’s your duty to bring it up well.

He shouldn’t roam the streets like a dog like me.

He’ll be born a prince and live like a king.

Never scold him.

Not even if he cries the whole night...

- ...keeps you awake, wets the bed. - No!

If he shits on you, then?

Where are you going?

Delhi. To meet the Prime Minister.

Coming?

Dumbo!

Dumbo!

Dumbo

Dumbo Singh.

Dumbo Singh, sounds good!

- What is this? - What?

Where did you get this?

Who gave it?

Give it.

Doesn’t look good in your hands.

Big eyes, sari, a gun, you look scary!

What is it doing in the flour can?

Stop fooling around. It will go off!

Is this your gas agency business?

You won’t understand. Give it to me.

Why did you bring this here?

- What’ll you do by knowing this? - I want to know.

Don’t play bandit queen.

Did Gopal give it to you?

Now he wants you to murder!

This was the only thing left!

- Give it or I’ll slap you! - I won’t.

I’ll die, but I won’t.

I’ll not allow you to kill anyone.

Act smart again and I’ll bury you here!

I’ll do whatever I want. No one can stop me.

Listen to me carefully.

Never bend so much for a woman that she tramples all over you.

There’s someone with him.

Are you sure he’s our guy?

Useless females!

They are bad news, especially the educated ones.

Neither are they happy nor do they let us be happy.

He’s stopping.

What’s he doing?

Follow him.

Sleep with them, love them but never live with them.

Just for shots, why try to own the bar?

The bugger is turning around.

Tell me. Should I live with Sashi or leave her?

Keep an eye outside. There’s a police van behind.

They’re an addiction.

Can’t live with them. Can’t live without them.

What are you blabbering? I can’t understand a word.

Aren’t you scared?

Yes, if I think about it. So I don’t.

Tell me one thing, should I overtake or follow him?

Overtake.

You didn’t answer. Should I keep her or leave her.

The wretch is getting away.

Think about it.

Michael!

The one in the white shirt, having pizza.

- Bhardwaj. - Yes!

- Close all exits. - Okay.

- I’m scared. - Don’t panic!

- Just guard my back. - I’ll go to the exit.

Badal, aren’t you Prasanjit Bhattacharya’s nephew?

That’s why you beat up guys at the hostel.

Uncle said college students aren’t needed in a village committee election.

Tell your uncle...

He has been bringing his politics to the college since many years.

Now students will enter politics.

And they’ll also break limbs.

You hit one of us, we’ll hit five.

Happy? You could’ve lost your eyesight.

They say one shouldn’t look in a mirror at night.

A shot of A.T.S. and Penicillin and I’ll be ok.

Let him eat, mom. He hasn’t eaten in 2 days.

Give me that curry. You made it? Good.

I waited everyday for your father for 20 years.

Didn’t know if he would come home alive, hurt or dead.

I thought all that had ended.

Don’t talk ill of dad, mom. He did so much.

From one city to another. Petitions, public litigations, suo motos.

He did so much for everyone.

But he did nothing for his home.

It’s your cooking, that’s made us all like this.

How many more nights will I keep awake...

...wondering if I’ve to go to a police station or a hospital?

How many more times will you ask me the same question?

But it has had no effect on you.

You won’t let me rest in peace even in my old age.

Sit.

Don’t blackmail me. Nothing’s wrong with you.

A shot of insulin, a sugar free diet and you’ll live for years.

You should be proud of him.

Five more people like him and Kolkatta would’ve changed.

I don’t want a hero.

I want a normal son like the others.

Social service, patriotism have all ended with your father.

Not ended mother, just started!

Doctor!

What are you doing here?!

A Physics professor is arriving.

How’s your mom? Giving her insulin regularly?

Yes. Just gave her a shot. Human mixed at 15 units.

She should avoid chocolates. That’s her only problem.

He keeps advising the world, but hogs sweets, boozes and smokes.

Leave it!

- Catch you later. - That day I found cigarettes under his pillow.

Why talk about all that here?

- Aunt! - My child.

My child, come here!

- Mike, come here. - Let’s go.

Remember Radhika?

She has just completed her M.A.

Last time I saw her, she had braces.

Not anymore.

I can see that. Bye!

- Bye! - Porter!

Why were you so rude to him?

I wasn’t. Are you still stitching up this Einstein?

Twice a month.

- Why are you always after him? He’s a... - You keep quiet!

Do you know what he puts Leela through?

Where am I denying that? Can I ever argue with you?

Your aunt rules at home. I have no value there.

You are number one, T.V. comes second, dog is third and I...

I’ve forgotten my watch. I’ll be right back.

Come soon!

Did you miss me?

I missed you a lot.

I’ve to go! Shall I?

Go.

Go.

Tomorrow. 4 p.m.

The management is suspending 20 of you...

...for bringing unnecessary politics in this college.

I knew this would happen.

Good! We needn’t take the physics exam.

Continue this way and you’ll be rusticated.

- Thank you, madam. - Instead of studying you are into politics?

- Yes, madam. - Idealism will get you nowhere.

- You’ll lose terribly. - Yes, madam.

Your parents struggle to educate you and you all...

Yes, ma’am.

Go study, become somebody. The world will take care of itself.

When you were in college, you must’ve studied very hard.

First class with distinction.

Has the world become any better!

- Michael! - I’m being frank.

We wouldn’t say anything bad to you. You are Madhumita’s mom.

How’s she?

You’ve been suspended and you think it’s funny?

What will you do now?

All the things you’ve suspended us for.

There could be more in the car.

There’s no one.

He’s the one, take him.

What is it?

Run! So many have come!

Go from the back.

I’ll tear them to pieces!

Can’t you see how many people are here?

- Sit quietly. - And those two?

Come on!

- Searched everywhere. No one’s here. - Where are they?

Hold him! Pull!

Get a cloth! Quick!

J’aime, Tom Cruise.

A vous.

I don’t understand!

Why is V O U S pronounced as Voo?

Mr. Shankar, I’m the professor, not you.

Pronounce as I tell you.

Get it?

- Good morning madam. - Good morning.

Excuse me. Just borrowing your French professor

Let’s go.

Excuse!

- Where are you taking me? - Come!

- Where are we going? - To 24 Parganas.

- Where? - A small village.

You’ve studied economics and political theory in Delhi.

Now learn to apply it.

This is what I like about you.

You barge into my class, drag me away

and instead of taking me to a movie or Victoria,

you take me to some village! Which one?

This is the only thing I like about you.

Give me your hand.

You teach French right?

Why?

Why don’t you show me what a French kiss is?

Shut up!

They want to scare you.

Every election, they win more than 20,000 seats without even contesting.

If you want to save yourselves, you have to fight back.

You all are there with us. We are not worried.

Today we’re there. Who knows about tomorrow?

We’ll finish studying and go to Dubai or London or America to work.

Then what’ll you do?

Tell us what to do.

You have to stay here, not me.

This is your village, your land, your fields.

- So you tell me. - You go wherever you want.

- We’ll work out something. - What is that something?

Brother says we should put up a new person

in Boloida’s place in the councilor election.

Why don’t you?

There are so many of you. No one has the guts?

Talk practically.

- We can’t do all this. - Why?!

We put up a person to contest the election.

He disappeared overnight. Never returned.

How many can they kidnap?

If two disappear then bring the third, then the fourth.

All of you stand together. Then what can they do?

Demand your share of water, electricity and food.

- Win and make your village committee. - Heard it?

Talks a lot.

If someone gets pissed off, they’ll cut his tongue.

I’ve read his palm. He has a long lifeline.

Who is ready to contest the election?

Sister.

You’ve slogged so much all alone. Sent me to Kolkatta for education.

Take up one more challenge.

Just as you’ve lived proudly, you can make this village proud.

Contest the election.

How is it possible?

Sister...

If anyone can do this, it’s you.

Say, yes.

Okay.

Sister, you can do it.

Yes?

Mike! My sister will contest.

What is she doing?

- Sister, you know what you’re doing? - Shut up!

Leela, you shouldn’t do this.

You shut up! You are spineless!

Won’t all of you support her? We’ll make her win!

Greetings.

Welcome to our college, sir.

Why these formalities?

This is my college and they’re my students.

- Come. - Thank you.

Professor Wienberg has written...

...from Texas, USA. He has invited Michael to do research in America.

He is a Nobel Laureate, sir.

Being invited by him is a big thing.

Morning, sir.

- What’s his name? - Michael Mukherjee.

Michael Mukherjee! Hello!

I’m Prasanjit Bhattacharya, Minister.

- I know. - You know, very good!

The principal says that you’re the first one to get this scholarship.

- Many have got it earlier too. - I didn’t know that.

I’m very proud of you. Tell me, what do you want?

Should I talk to the Chief Minister?

Whatever you want, just tell me. Don’t hesitate.

Treat me as your elder brother.

Can I address you as brother?

Sure! Why not?

Brother, I don’t want this American Scholarship.

- Why? - I wish to stay here.

What will you do staying here?

So, you won’t go?

Michael, this is a lifetime opportunity.

Once in a lifetime!

You should grab it.

Leave politics to us.

We fight, then make up.

We survive by hook or crook.

You’re the strength of West Bengal, precious to us.

That’s why I want to stay here.

But why politics, my brother?

You’ve toiled so hard, taken this country to great heights.

We must do something too. After all, I’m your younger brother.

But if everyone starts thinking like you...

- ...then no one will need me! - Correct!

There are very few good men in politics.

I know.

Alright, take care of yourself.

Aren’t you there, brother?

That’s right, where will I go?

Okay, good luck!

Let’s go.

Michael.

He’s not only a minister but also our college correspondent.

Was this the way to talk to him?

What happened, sir?

He was talking happily, smiling.

Only thing missing was a hug. Can I go, sir?

Okay.

Call Trilok?

- He’s in Room No. 42. - No he’s in Vishnu’s room.

- Tell him his uncle has come. - Alright, I’ll go.

Want to fight elections?

Act smart and I’ll bash you!

Come on tell me!

Hey, Trilok.

Who did it?

I’ll be okay, Michael.

I’ll be alright.

Gopal’s men.

“Try harder fool or you will get a blow.”

“Try harder fool or you will get a blow.”

“Try harder fool or you will get a blow.”

Who is it?

- Who are you? - Let me see them.

How dare you barge in?

Get out all of you!

How dare you barge in?

Ghoshal!

Am I giving alms here?

I’m asking you all to get out.

How dare you barge in here?

I’m asking you to stop.

We can come to a compromise.

We can sit and talk.

You sit here. I’ll sit there. Things can be set right.

Don’t you understand?

I have a wife and a four year old child.

It’s not fair to barge in like this.

What’s my mistake?

Tell me, if I’ve made a mistake.

This is the last warning!

“Try harder fool or you will get a blow.”

“Oh youth, youth...”

“Become a beacon of light on the path.”

“Oh youth, youth...”

“Try harder fool or you will get a blow.”

Is the inspector in?

“Move aside.”

Please file an F.I.R.

“Move aside. Move.”

A. K. Tavash. Hi!

Hey... hey!

Want to file an F.I.R. Give me a pen.

We ransacked Gopal Singh’s house at Baman Gaji.

- Do you know who did it? - Yes.

- We did it. - You all?

Yes. Write down the names.

Michael, Vishnu, Vishvajeet, Anil, Aakash, Joy...

You are not writing? Is the list too long?

Isn’t the lock-up room too small?

- Will this do? - It’s okay!

H, I, J, K, L...

...equals H, I, J into H, K, L...

...plus H, I, J, H, J, L...

...plus H, I, L into H, J, K.

What does this prove?

I can’t understand a word.

This proves that the universe isn’t made up of infinitely dense matter.

Amazing! I could never understand.

Idiot!

Pick it up, Subhash!

Remember how you cleared your science paper?

Agreed, this is blackmail.

A doctor shouldn’t be doing this.

But this is just a small favour.

Subhash please, I’ve known these boys since childhood.

They are from educated families.

They have been in jail since two days.

- Yes, okay. All right. - Thank you.

Commissioner's on the line.

And Grand Unified Theory.

“The path is new, so are the travellers.”

The entire universe’s matter in one equation.

- It’s over. - Can we go?

Yes, go!

Go!

- What is this?! - Goes over our heads!

- Okay. - Thank you, sir.

Can I get a cigarette?

I’ll take it.

Anybody for cigarettes?

Get going. Want to stay here!

There’s only one and I’m taking it.

What have you done? Now, how can I go out?

- You look sexy! - Will you keep quiet if I tear yours?

Please wait.

It’s not what you are thinking.

How do you know, what I’m thinking?

Whatever you’re thinking, it’s not that.

Tell me, what was I thinking about?

Is this what your uncle and aunt taught you?

Why do women always think ill of other women?

Would you believe me if I said that your wild son tore my blouse?

Straighten it and leave. Don’t come back!

You think I’ll ever come back?

Even if you fall at my feet, I won’t.

I pity your daughter-in-law.

Get out! Arguing with me in my house?

Are both of you aware of all this?

- No! - No, mother!

Lies. Full of lies!

Mrs. Kanta has won!

For the first time a lady has won in our village.

I’ve won only because of you.

Otherwise the election would have never been fair.

Give me your hand.

Give me your hand.

What was that ruckus at your place?

Scolding your uncle or...

- We had a fight! - Why?

He wanted me to marry some idiot whom I don’t want to.

And the idiot I want to marry doesn’t want to marry at all!

Pack your bags and move in with me.

Where will I stay?

In Tara and Joe’s room or aunt Leela’s room?

In my room.

- Before marriage? - Why not?

It’s a sin.

If it’s a sin to live together, then it’s also a sin to fall in love.

Love is divine.

- There is no such thing as love. - What?

Why are we born, I mean, you, me, that guy with the red T-Shirt...

...yellow dress, that guy there, why are we born?

Procreation.

Flirting, roaming on beaches, laughing and crying...

...come to an end in a park or in a hotel bed.

Love is nothing but hormones.

Androgen, estrogen, testrostone.

It’s pure organic chemistry.

X cromosome, Y cromosome, X-X, X-Y.

That’s it!

- Understand? - Not a thing.

It’s very simple. I love you.

If you can tolerate me, come and live with me.

I’ll think about it.

“The clouds came. They built up the heat.”

“They showered rain. By their will.”

“The path that comes, it also goes.”

“It may turn somewhere. By its will.”

“Listen to this story.”

“Think about it, my friend.”

“The clouds came. They built up the heat.”

“They showered rain. By their will.”

“The path that comes, it also goes.”

“It may turn somewhere. By its will.”

“Listen to this story.”

Boss! Please!

After that taxi.

Quick!

“Listen to this story.”

“Think about it, my friend.”

“The stones that break way.”

“You’ll find them in these paths.”

“This is not a thread...

...which can’t be tied up.”

“The world is like a dream, take the hint.”

“These are the sounds of the hearts which can only be heard here.”

“Listen to this story.”

“Think about it, my friend.”

“Listen to this story.”

“Think about it, my friend.”

Hello!

How are you?

- Today’s our 113th day. - Of what?

When we met at the Sky Lounge for the first time.

Forgotten already?

How can I, except on public holidays?

Liar, you will forget.

- Maybe! - Will you?

- Maybe! - What do you mean, maybe?

Maybe!

So give me an unforgettable kiss.

Dog!

The signal is down.

Oh no.

We’re in Howrah. If you’re done, then pack.

- You promised okay?! - Absolutely. How can I forget?

- You’re marrying her? - Are you mad?!

College romance ends with college.

It’s enough upto the train.

Guys, best of luck!

Girls of Kolkatta are waiting for me!

What do you want to do now?

Become an IAS officer like you.

- Any girlfriends? - Yuck, never!

- Did you get the UPSC forms from Delhi? - Yes.

To do IAS, one must’ve an urge to serve the country.

“Come! Let’s finish this!”

“Finish!”

“Come! Let’s finish this!”

“Finish!”

“It’s a river of romance.”

“Take away a drop.”

“Is it a drop in the river or a river in the drop?”

“Is it the shadow of the body or a shadow hidden in the body?”

“If both combine then what body, what shadow?”

“Let the heart finish.”

“Let the pain be destroyed.”

“Let all the desires fly.”

“Let all the desires fly.”

“Let the heart finish.”

“Come! Let’s finish this!”

“Finish!”

“Come! Let’s finish this!”

Just keep dancing.

Don’t stop, please.

- I’m Arjun! - So?

Arjun...

Oh! Meera!

- Why should I dance with you? - Because you’re dancing!

Also, you dance like Jennifer Lopez.

Lie!

- You’re the most beautiful here. - A better lie.

Because I’m very happy. Tomorrow’s my D-day.

- Really! - Yes!

- Me too. - Oh! Where are you going?

I’ve an interview at the US Consulate. For my visa.

6-8 weeks and I’ll be in America!

I’m going back to home.

To Kanpur! The groom is coming to see me.

Actually I’m checking out the groom.

Wow!

- Bye! - Where are you going?

- Please don’t go. - Friends are leaving.

- Let them go. - I’ve to go.

- Don’t break my heart and go away. - No chance!

- Will you stay if I cry?! - Show me your hand.

Here’s my phone number. Tell me about your US Visa.

I’ll tell you how my groom is.

Okay? Bye!

“How are you?”

“...with one.”

- I was searching for you. - Why?

- Do you have this form? - Which one?

Without this, our applications won’t be accepted.

- Since when are you here? - 4 o’clock.

Hey. do I look senile?

Can’t say. I don’t know you well.

You can’t barge in.

No problem, sir. If you wish, you can stand ahead of me.

No, not you.

Waiting since 4?

Lufthansa. Frankfurt-New York.

Within 2 months. I’m coming!

- You need a visa for that. - Right!

Where’s my phone?

- Hello! - Hello!

- Meera! - Who’s this Meera?

I’m Arjun. Met at the club. We had danced together.

Yes. Hi.

- What happened to your groom from Kanpur? - Kanpur’s groom?

My wedding’s in August. The face-showing ceremony’s done.

- Face-showing ceremony? - In our community, good girls get more money.

Wow! Great!

What’s great?

Go and help dad!

- What about your visa? - Visa, done. I’ll get it in a week.

Good!

So?

So?

Care for a coffee?

Arjun, I’m engaged.

Just a cup of pure, harmless, platonic coffee. Is it a problem?

Okay! But I must be back before 7.30.

Great! 4.30, Coffee Day?

Yes, see you.

Okay.

Are you nuts? You met him just 3 days ago!

- Only for 10 minutes! - What’s your problem?

And now this! Are you mad?

Maybe!

Big deal!

“Finish!”

“Finish!”

I’ll pay for my coffee.

No problem! You can pay for mine too!

Shameless! Don’t you feel ashamed?

When I was born, I was placed between twin girls.

- Since then... cappuccino please. - Yes.

Two. That’s where my love story started.

Since then, I’ve never said no to any girl.

So, if you wish to pay, I won’t stop you.

- How many girls have fallen for this? - 42 and a half!

42 earlier and the half is you.

Thanks.

You didn’t tell me about your groom.

His name is Ajay Agarwal.

M.S., Printing Technology.

Has a big house, swing, a cattle shed.

We were left alone to talk.

- In Kanpur?! - Sexy, right?

All the old women were eavesdropping.

Lots of spying going on.

- And you agreed? - He’s smart, rich. I said, okay.

What’ll you do in Kanpur?

What’ll you do in the US?

Flirt with the girls, earn money, have fun!

- Me too. - Fooling? Really?

- That’s bad one! - Sorry.

Have fun! On one hand, there’s his press...

...on the other, his leather business.

He’ll get shoes made and I, bags, purses, leather jackets.

Do you know how many shoes and purses Imelda Marcos has?

Good! All set to sink your in-laws!

- Yes. - Yes?

- Yup. - Cheers!

Very fiery! What a mouth!

- Kissed her? - No, stupid!

She’s sharp, intelligent!

Then what’s she doing with you?

- You! - Arjun!

You talk too much.

He’s cute. Wouldn’t take his eyes off me. Total flirt!

- Funny guy. - Did he touch you?

Nothing much!

She leaned on my shoulder.

Bullshit!

- And you know? She held my hand tight. - Leave my hand!

Had fun, but not in love with him or anything.

Don’t read my SMS!

No, no don’t read!

- It’s Arjun’s! - I don’t know!

The Nest, Shankarpur, Shall we go?!

Wow!

Hey run...

Arjun! I’ll hit you.

You!

You...

- Move away! - Why?!

Scared that I’ll rape you?

No, because...

- You’ll fall in love with me. - If I do, then?

You’ll become Kanpur’s sad lover.

You’ll gape towards New York from your terrace.

Talk to the flying planes, thinking of me.

Be serious!

Serious? What’s that?

“Good bye!”

“Good bye!”

“Thanks a lot!”

“Thanks a lot!”

“Met for a few moments.”

“Met for a few moments and I’m in trouble.”

“Strangers are we!”

“We don't know each other.”

“We don't know each other.”

“Strangers are we!”

“Happen to meet while wandering.”

“They meet and walk hand in hand.”

“Friendship may be new but paths are the old.”

“Strangers are we!”

“Good bye!”

“Thanks a lot!”

“Thanks a lot!”

“Met for a few moments.”

“Met for a few moments and I’m in trouble.”

“Strangers are we!”

“We don't know each other.”

“We don't know each other.”

“Strangers are we!”

“Good bye!”

“We don't know each other.”

Remove your hand.

- I’m so sorry! - Not sorry, remove your hand.

I’m sorry.

- Remove it! - What do I do?

I want to. But my hands won’t obey.

There’ll be a problem.

Why?

If you come any closer then even God can’t stop us.

- Thanks. - Thank you.

- Bye! - Bye.

Don’t go.

It’s 5 a.m. The milkman will come.

One minute!

It’s dusk in America now. I’ll get into the habit.

Had you gone to buy milk?

No dad, I had gone to Sanjay’s house to study.

- Even he’s appearing for the IAS. - Arjun.

A letter from USIS.

- Yes, what happened? - Shut up!

Shut up!

- Good morning. - What happened? Did someone die?

That girl called up?

- Which girl? - No dad, that...

What are you saying?

I don’t understand. Say it clearly.

He’s saying there’s a letter from USIS.

I’ve been trying to tell you. You don’t get it!

You have got the visa. It has been stamped.

Why did you lie?

That you want to do IAS?

Tell me?

Dad...

if I had told you the truth, you’d be angry for three years.

You’d scold me everyday and your blood pressure would rise.

Now, you’re just a little disappointed.

- You’ll be all right by tomorrow. - Yes, I’m disappointed.

Absolutely!

Please, dad, don’t be angry.

What can I tell you? How do I tell it?

I... I am a very simple and selfish man, dad.

I’m not like you. I do just what I like.

You won’t understand. Had mom been there, maybe she’d have...

See, don’t create a drama. Don’t drag mummy in every matter.

Mummy would’ve thrown you out of the house.

But you aren’t mom, isn’t it?

Which university are you joining?

Cornell, management program.

That’s good. Study here and earn for them.

- Sorry, dad. - Yes, only this was left now.

Thanks. You’re the best.

Are you drunk?

Just beer.

Go! Go to your room!

Go. Brush your teeth.

Aren’t I looking like a bride?

- Wow! - There was a function at my aunt’s place yesterday.

Can I touch it?

- We should not meet now. - Why?

Your visa has come, you have to go.

I will be married, I will go to Kanpur.

Live happily ever after.

Yes and in between, all this these phone calls...

...going out for coffee, SMS, clubs, all this won’t work.

We have our own lives, different.

There’s no need to complicate things unnecessarily.

Yes, this is right too.

- So... - So?

So that means, you won’t meet me from today?

Maybe we will never meet after this.

Now? Right now? At this moment?

Yes, from right now.

It was you who had said, no drama, no emotional dialogues.

Only fun.

Yes, but that doesn’t mean that the two of us should stop meeting right now.

Now, will you drop me to the hostel or will you ditch me here?

- Don’t go. - We’ve reached the bus stop.

I know, don’t go.

- I have to go. - Please, don’t go.

- Arjun... - Meera, don’t go.

I’ll have to go walking because of you.

- You too! - Come sit.

I won’t sit. I’m getting down at the next stop.

- Please sit. - We had talked about it, didn’t we?

Just come and sit down.

See, this tram will come back and your stop too.

Come.

- So you want to go to the depot and return? - Yes!

It’s our last date, c’mon.

- We don’t have the tickets. - We’ll buy them.

- You are crazy. - Totally.

- Sit. - Thank God that you are going to America.

Even you are going to Kanpur.

- What do we have to do sitting here? - We’ll chat.

Okay sweetheart, shoot.

“Strangers.”

“The two are travellers.”

“They met each other by chance.”

“They met each other by chance.”

“Unknown people.”

“Strangers are we!”

“The two are travellers.”

“They met each other by chance.”

“Unknown people.”

Hey, Meera.

Meera! Meera!

Meera.

Meera, I...

I love you.

Which one am I?

42nd or 42 and a half?

Honestly, the first. I swear.

What?

- I’m serious. It’s the truth. - What?

- That... what I said... - What are you saying?

Okay, if you are feeling so shy, it’s all right.

I love you. Meera.

Meera!

Meera, no!

- Please, listen to me. - Come on.

Wait. Boss, please stop.

Please give me a lift. After that taxi, please!

Please, quickly, she’ll go, please!

Fast please, after that taxi.

- Love story? - Yes, boss.

- She’s going on the bridge! - Were you going somewhere else?

I’ll have to take a U turn because of you.

Thank you, boss. Sorry, boss.

Please drive faster.

My love story shouldn’t end. Please.

Relax, I will reach you there.

Wait! I said, wait!

Thank you.

Bye.

Meera.

I want to marry you. I want to take you to the US.

What about the guy in Kanpur?

I want to see the Niagara falls with you, your hand in mine.

We’ll have two daughters, just like you.

We’ll tonsure them at the Pittsburgh Balaji Temple, okay?

Just say yes, please.

The dark ones here, white ones there.

What about the girls...

...whom you wanted in your arms?

Since the time I met you, even Kolkatta seems clean to me.

And when you smile...

...I feel as if someone has lighted up my heart.

- You are the one. - Who?

The one! You’re the one.

Hey, Meera.

Meera.

Hey, Meera.

- Don’t you feel ashamed? - No!

I swear on your father! I want to marry you.

I want to stay with you. I’ll start stammering.

My remaining hair will fall off. My remaining teeth will fall off.

Our kids will drive us out from our home. Even then I’ll love you.

Since how long do you know me?

We’ve hardly met...

...and we’ve got kids too.

I love you.

- So, what should I do? - Do the same thing. Love me.

No, there’s no hurry. Think about it if you want to.

Even if you reply after 3 minutes, it’ll do.

Enough.

What? You want some more time?

Okay, take three and a half minutes.

I thought that when someone loves me...

...or wants to marry me, he’ll declare it openly in front of the world...

...that he loves me and wants to marry me.

How loud should I shout?

- So that the whole world hears you. - From where? Tell me?

- From here. - From where?

From up there?

- Hurry, I have to go. - Okay.

You’re watching too many Hindi movies these days.

Because of people like you these rotten Hindi movies do well.

I’m going up. Now don’t run away.

I’m climbing up. You don’t run.

Meera, I love you.

Meera.

Meera, I love you.

What about the guy from Kanpur?

Meera, I love you.

- Cards are going to be printed! - Let them! I love you!

Marry me! Meera, I love you!

- Do something! - What do I do?

- Is he alive? - Someone call! Hospital! Ambulance!

Careful!

Oh, no.

- Careful! - If something happens to me. Go back!

Arjun, careful!

Arjun.

Hello! Listen to me!

He is alive. Drive faster.

Faster.

Don’t let me lose consciousness.

Okay.

What do I tell him?

- See... where is the wound? - The wound...

On the stomach, a bit higher, on the ribs.

I can see your bones.

Cloth!

A cloth! Quickly! Give me! What are you doing?

- Take this. - Give me.

Press it...

Press it hard!

- Press it hard! - Okay!

How long will it take?

- Do you have a mobile? - I have it.

Press this, press this.

- ...009142. - 24009142.

- Leela... my mother. - Leela...

Michael Mukherjee.

I know you. You are a student leader.

AB +ve, my blood group.

AB +ve, blood group.

I don’t have any kind of allergies.

Help!

Stretcher! Call the doctor!

Doctor, please,

What happened? Has he been shot?

Yes, come fast.

- Is he a Gangster? - He is a student leader.

- What is his name? - Michael Mukherjee.

Who shot him?

We don’t know sir. There was a loud noise and then...

...we saw that someone has fallen in the water...

...nobody was doing anything, therefore we brought him here.

- Please look at him sir. - We’ll see.

Nurse!

- He won’t die will he? - We’ll see.

Do something.

He’s alive. Nurse, check the BP.

Once you register his case, we’ll admit him.

He’ll die by then. Be quick!

Without case registration, we can’t admit him.

We can’t operate on him. SO, take him to the sub-inspector.

Come sir.

Bring the X ray machine from the C ward.

Okay.

- Motirani. Serve the food. - I’m just preparing it.

She came back here again!

Don’t shout, she’s pregnant.

I told you I’ll tell you once I know where Lallan is.

Don’t come here and sit everyday.

Where’s Lallan?

Don’t act.

You have sent him to bash someone up.

I’m looking for him since a week.

Where did you send him. To kill whom?

- Did I? - Who else?

Have you gone mad?

Why don’t you leave him alone?

You do whatever you want.

Why drag Lallan into it?

So who’s stopping you? Go, rot in your poverty.

- Always after Lallan! - Stop muttering.

He doesn’t listen to anyone.

Don’t lie. We know each other well.

- It is clear to everybody. - Keep quiet.

Stop shrieking.

Give her a 100 rupees bundle.

Manage for a few days. I’ll send more when you need it.

I’m not here for your dirty money. I’m here to take Lallan.

He’s here. Come and take him.

What are you saying?

Explain it to her. Speaking nonsense!

How would I know where he is?

Must be having mistresses.

I’ll come here everyday till he comes home.

- I will ask you a thousand times. - Come, I’ll smash your head.

- Please be quiet. - Make her understand.

Speaks nonsense!

He’s serious.

- You’re the one who saved Michael? - Yes.

- He is the one. - He’s great!

- Thank you friend. - Thanks a lot!

Whatever you’ve done is amazing!

Did he bleed much?

- Didn’t you see him? - They aren’t letting anyone in.

Vishnu!

It’s all right.

Trilok.

- All these people are for Michael? - Yes.

All from his college?

From all colleges. From outside too.

Your Michael’s a big hero.

Two bullets are removed. The third just grazed him.

Your brother is a fabulous man.

- How’s Leela aunty? - She’s not well.

Did you tell her about Michael?

Just a second.

Excuse me!

Excuse me!

Hey... hey... hey!

I know you rascal.

You shot Michael.

What happened?

Keep the keys under the mat or give them to aunt.

Mom.

What happened?

Had a fight with uncle and aunt. They threw me out.

Oh my God! Shall I talk to them?

No aunt. I’ve decided. I won’t ever go back to that house from today.

- Where will you stay? - Here. Where else?

Ask her what she wants to do.

You ask. Why should I?

- How long will you stay here? - I told you aunt.

I’ll stay here from now on.

What are you talking about? Why did you fight with uncle and aunt?

Let’s not talk about it. Both are very angry right now.

Uncle is shouting as if the roof has fallen on his head.

If I tell you, the roof will fall down here too.

Don’t worry. This is Mike and my problem.

We’ll solve it together.

There’s no hurry. Let Michael get well and come home.

We’ll discuss it then.

Hi Meera.

- Arvind, right? - Come in.

Your hero’s been smashed. He’s in bed.

You were to go to Kanpur?

Yes, by the 7 o’clock train.

- Does he tell you everything? - I’m the advisor.

He tells me everything.

Come on in.

- What happened? - Do I look too handsome?

But what happened?

I met another girl after you and told her I loved her.

She got a little too excited.

I want to tell you something.

You’re pregnant?

I’m going to Kanpur today.

- Marriage after four weeks. - Don’t send me a card.

Why can’t an earthquake swallow me?

Then don’t go. Come with me. Monday, Lufthansa.

I will have to go.

Please don’t go.

Everyone’s waiting in the car.

Will we ever meet again?

No.

- Meera. - Don’t!

I know.

Who’s that?

Lallan?

Where have you been?

- Where were you? - Do you tell me where you go, when you’ll come?

Fight afterwards, come, rest.

I’m asking you a simple question. Can’t I get an answer?

I’ll bring something for you to eat, okay?

What’s this?

Will the two of you say something?

- Why did you go to the hospital? - What do you care?

You should’ve come after a month.

When she’d have committed suicide!

Left a pregnant lady all alone and disappeared.

Who knows whether you were alive or dead?

She went to Gopal Singh everyday and got abused.

What else could she do? She aborted it.

Quiet, Shobha!

I’ll come.

- What did you say? - Shobha, you go.

- Was that true? - Lallan, let Shobha go.

- You had taken her isn’t it? - Yes I had, what’ll you do?

I’ll give you one tight slap.

- Lallan, let her go. - Won’t spare you!

- I’m not scared of you. - Even your father will get scared!

Lallan!

Bitches come running to get someone aborted.

Take care of her. Thank your stars she didn’t jump into a river.

You come here again and I’ll kill you.

Try to understand her pain, you animal!

By hitting me you’ll not going to get back your baby.

Why did you kill my baby?

Feel the pain when it’s your own flesh?

You could’ve killed me instead. Why him?

You could’ve stabbed me! What was the baby’s fault?

His fault was that he was yours.

I didn’t kill anyone. He’s alive.

- Say that again. - He’s alive.

Swear on me.

Yes. He is alive.

Then why did you have the gun?

I shot him, but he’s alive.

Michael!

Michael!

Michael!

Remember, Arjun! Michael!

He shot you thrice...

But you’re fine now.

Doctors have said that your BP is stable now.

Your limb functions are all right too.

You will be all right, friend.

I will call everyone.

Leela madam, Vishnu, I’ll call everyone, okay?

Where’s that girl?

You remember?

Meera.

She’s gone to Kanpur.

I was slightly late.

Keep your eyes open.

I will be back in two minutes.

You’re okay, man!

Michael, I’ll just come.

Michael, I’ll just come.

God has shown us a way.

We can change everything.

We’ll go somewhere else, to our village.

We’ll live our whole life. We will start a hotel.

We will educate our children.

Listen to me. Let us leave from here, come.

Can I become a good man?

Yes.

Let’s leave from here once.

Just say yes, once.

What happened brother?

You’re badly hurt.

Don’t worry, I told the SP. SP Ganesh. CB CID.

I told him to drag the dog in court within four days...

...and put him behind bars.

- Thank you. - Why are you thanking me? It is my duty.

Whatever be the complaint, don’t hesitate.

- I’m like an... - Elder brother.

I know.

- I don’t need anyone’s help. - Why?

We students have decided to join politics.

We’ll fight the next election against you.

You’ve just survived such a huge calamity.

- Once again... - You’re there, brother?

Yes. I’m there.

I recognise the man who shot me well.

Once he’s caught, we’ll know...

...who has a problem with your younger brother.

You’ve survived such a grievous injury.

I’m satisfied.

- God bless you. - Thank you.

Radhika!

You’re back?

- Joe. - What are you doing here?

Why? This is my room, your room.

Our room.

- Who said so? - You did.

What did I say? I can’t remember what I said properly.

You had said that if there was any problem...

Then I could come and stay with you.

Forgot? Or did you change your decision?

Or did you find some pretty nurse at the hospital?

- You will really stay here? - See, I’m here.

But, how did you convince Leela teacher?

Just four words. Everyone was silent.

What did you say?

That I may be pregnant.

Are you really?

I could be.

- Don’t I have my own problems? - Yes!

This is strange, Mike. That man had you shot ten days ago.

Today, he has reached your house and threatened you indirectly.

You told him that you’re standing in the elections? What does this mean?

When you were in the hospital...

...we didn’t even know whether you’d survive or not.

We thought a lot, we don’t need all this.

- What do you not want? - Dirty politics.

We can’t stoop to their level.

We are educated.

Why should we fight with these people and risk our lives?

Right. We should run scared.

Let us go, write software, join MNCs, sell coke and soaps.

Earn money for America. Our country can go to dogs.

I don’t wish to enter politics in the current situation either.

But should we have only such politicians?

Don’t we have any other choice?

If we can clean up even one foot of land of ‘Prasanjits’...

...then we must enter politics.

It’s not so easy, Michael. We’re not ready.

We knew that you’d say this.

Therefore we decided that we won’t stand for the elections.

Vishnu, will you stand with me?

Do you think that I am doing something wrong?

- This isn’t wrong, this is just... - Just what?

Why can’t we stand in the elections?

I’m standing, is there anyone with me?

I will stand.

This isn’t a joke.

You are going to America tomorrow. Don’t say anything.

I’m not joking, I will stand. I can repeat, I will stand.

What do you know about politics?

Nothing, but I can learn.

I’m with you, Michael.

Look, Gopal. I know Lallan is your brother.

He is our blood.

But if he’s caught, then we are both finished.

First take care of yourself and then brothers, relatives.

There is a wound on the hand. So before it rots...

...turns into a septic, cut the hand off.

Else that very wound will kill you.

It’ll wipe you out!

Did you understand what I said, or not?

Yes. So go.

Taken the tickets?

What are you doing? I had told you to put the pin!

What are you doing? We are getting late.

Leave me.

Tie my saree.

What’s this? Aren’t we going to the village?

Do you have any suspicion?

Then why are you carrying this?

- I have to return it. - There’s no need for that. I’ll throw it away.

It’s very important to return it.

Lallan, come quickly!

He has gone to fetch a rickshaw.

You go with him to the station. I’ll return it and come.

You will come, isn’t it?

Sure.

I gave you a small job.

You messed it up.

I shot him thrice from six feet away.

He’s lucky that he’s still alive. It’s not my fault.

- But I’m facing the fireworks. - So, what should I do?

- Want me to face them? - Get lost!

- What do you mean? - That fellow recognizes you.

Disappear.

- Where will I go? - Anywhere.

- Till when? - There is no need to come back, Lallan.

There’s money for you.

Take Sashi along. She’ll be happy and I too.

And you?

What about me?

You didn’t say what you wanted to.

Stop this useless argument.

If questions are raised they’ll look for a scapegoat.

I can’t see you die in front of my eyes.

Wow!

You brought me here to tell me this?

This love has awakened for me after years!

What do you want, Lallan?

Suppose I refuse to go. What will you do?

Don’t talk nonsense.

Brother, did you bring me here to send me off from the city, or to kill me?

Do you see these shoes? If you speak rubbish I’ll hit you!

- What’s in your pocket? - What?

That’s what I’m asking. What’s it?

- What’s in my pocket? - Show it.

- Look Lallan... - Please show it.

- Lallan, what... - Show it.

- Remove it. - Keep this inside.

What do you want?

Why are you hiding it?

- Give it to me brother. - What are you doing?

Have you gone crazy?

You have a gun too.

What happened? I told you to keep it back.

I know you very well.

It’s the same blood.

I stopped trusting you the day you abandoned me at the bus stand.

Lallan, you are misunderstanding me again.

Come on, give me the gun.

Lallan move it!

I say move it!

Take it back!

Take it back!

Ticket!

Ticket!

Ticket please!

Is Lallan Singh your husband?

Is he in the bathroom?

So, is he sitting in some other coach?

What do I know where he is?

Whether he is alive or dead.

Whether he’s in some other compartment,

in this world, or in some other city...

...in some hotel or some prison, with some mistress or a prostitute.

I don’t know anything.

All men are like this. All of them are dogs.

His name is written here. Therefore I asked you.

You are getting angry needlessly.

Brother, ticket.

Who’s it? Gopal?

Come.

Finished the job?

I committed a big mistake.

Judgement error.

But my heart knew that Lallan will not run.

I was hasty.

You made me kill my own brother.

I understand.

When I was ten years old.

I killed my father with a stick.

I understand your pain.

Tell me, what can I do for you?

Whatever I gave to Gopal, take all of that.

Who wants all that?

There are 50 Gopal’s in this city.

And hundreds are his fathers.

I don’t want to become another Gopal.

I want your money.

I want your power.

I want your position.

I want all of this.

Wretch!

You are more useless than me.

You’re bargaining with me showing me my own gun?

Come.

Sit.

Everybody advised us, not to forsake studies for politics.

That it’s dirty. Nothing will change.

But I ask you, why shouldn’t we?

If it is filthy, why shouldn’t we clean it? How can nothing happen?

- Am I wrong? - No!

- Can anyone stop us? - No!

- Are we ready to fight? - Yes!

To enter politics and contest the by-elections...

- ...are we really ready? - Yes!

What should we do then?

Contest the elections?

- Yes. - Yes.

The excitement prevailing here due to the youth contesting elections...

...was not seen even when Mr. Prafulla Kumar Mahanta...

...was fighting elections in Assam as a student.

Let’s talk to the student leader Michael Mukherjee...

...who is spearheading this new movement.

What do you think? Will you and your friends will win this election?

- 100 percent. - Do you think that four of you can change politics?

Why not? One needs to score one run first to make a century.

- We’ve hit a boundary - Thank you.

A new initiative by the young generation.

Whether this is a new ray of hope or a new problem...

- ...will be clear only after the results. - You’re crazy!

Get your head scanned. What has happened to you?

What do you know about politics?

I’m educated. I know what's right and wrong.

Don’t talk nonsense. You were to do IAS till yesterday.

Then you were going to America and today, this foolishness!

The truth is, you have no idea what you want.

I can say that about you too.

When I was to go to America, you wanted to keep me here.

Now when I want to be here, you’re chasing me to the US.

Dad, I don’t know what’s going to happen in the election.

But I want to do this. Even I don’t know why.

I just want to do it.

Have faith in me, a bit.

Do whatever you want. Don’t show me your face ever.

Dad, can I say something?

What?

Once I become a minister, you can’t scold me like this.

I’ll slap you!

Sorry.

You all think this is a big joke.

That man was beaten once, shot thrice and still he’s alive.

If the damn hot blood gets to his brain, he will scorch us.

He should’ve shot him in the head!

Brother, we can’t even touch Michael today.

There’ll be a scandal. He is front page news today.

What should I do?

Hide my face in my clothes?

I know what to do. Cut his roots.

Support.

Attack those who are with him.

See, everyone will fall flat after that.

Did you understand?

Meera.

You?

Alone?

How was the marriage? The honeymoon’s over?

How’s the Kanpur dude?

You didn’t go to America?

I didn’t go.

I didn’t marry too.

Why?

Whenever I thought of you, I said...

...why should I pine for you? You are so selfish!

You are chasing the American dream.

Why should I follow you like a crazy girl?

But...

...when I saw you on television...

...I understood.

That I’m not mad. My love is not wrong.

I have been crying since then.

I haven’t been able to stop.

I told the guy from Kanpur...

...that I love a nut from Kolkatta.

He came to leave me till the train.

- “Stranger!” - I love you!

I’m coming!

Ya, I’ll just come.

Come here.

Take care of her, or else I’ll hit you.

Bye. I love you.

Don’t move from here. I will come back.

I’m coming back.

“Good bye!”

Wish me luck, okay?

Stay there, don’t move! I’m coming back.

Don’t move! Don’t go anywhere, please.

Have Michael and the others reached?

Wait!

Nirmala, someone has come, ask what she wants.

Why are you here after hurting our feelings?

Ask him why did he stop treating the patient?

He is angry with me, isn’t it? Is this correct?

Tell her it’s not correct.

Mike’s come out alive. As a decent family doctor...

...tell him to come and meet him.

A pregnant woman’s curses are very bad.

I will slap you!

Doc.

Mike.

- Are you all right? - I’m all right.

She said I’m not fine?

All this is her drama to meet you people.

We were almost dead due to worry, do you know that?

I had decided I would kill you if I saw you again.

You have reared her haven’t you? Don’t you know that she lies?

Insolent, why did you lie?

Why should I lie? This Physics is lying.

If you want, wait for eight months.

Oh!

Really, aunt.

- Check it! - I’ll hit you.

Michael!

Trilok has been kidnapped!

- Vishnu and Arjun? - No idea.

- Call him up! - I tried a lot. I can’t get through.

Try it again!

You must be very happy, isn’t it?

Lallan, it is not too late.

See, you have got the money.

Catch the train and reach Mughalsarai.

It’s just half and hour from there.

This hooliganism and fighting is enough now!

Even I get caught in your mess. I’ll get trapped!

You have earned so much now.

Why are you destroying your life due to greed?

It is an excellent chance, go back to your village.

Enough. Shut up.

- I will fall! - Shut up!

Leave me, I won’t say anything!

Let him come. Michael, my brother!

Have you come to my meeting?

- Where are those people? - Come.

Listen to my oration! Maybe you change your mind after my lecture...

...and join my party.

I asked you where my friends are.

They’ve been kidnapped by your thugs.

What are you blabbering? I thought you were smart.

You had got a scholarship, isn’t it? How?

You can’t bully me. How do I know what you are talking about?

Their names are Arjun, Trilok and Vishnu.

They were standing in the election.

You search them. Because if I search them before you do...

I’m saying it in your field, I won’t spare you.

Stop the play.

Open it. I am hungry.

- Very good! - Where is Dablu?

He is inside, he is on guard. Should I call him?

Dablu, what are you doing inside?

Dablu!

Call him!

He has gone...

Go and have your food.

Open it!

Run! Run!

Dablu, I have brought food. Come.

Open it!

Dablu, Open it!

Open the door.

Have you gone mad?

Where are they?

Run! Run!

Run faster!

Faster.

- Lallan, listen to me! - Leave!

Lallan, listen to me.

How did you come out.

- Lallan! - Leave me, Dablu.

See, I promised Sashi. I won’t let you kill anyone!

You’ve become an animal in the greed of money and power.

You left your wife, you killed you brother.

You want to kill me? Okay, kill me!

Run in different ways! Run!

What’re you doing? They’ve separated!

Hey run after them!

Run till they are not caught!

I won’t spare you!

Hey! He is taking my mobile! Catch him!

Michael! Bridge!

Michael...

I don’t wish to fight with you.

I fight against this wretched politics, and we will change that.

Kabbadi!

Lallan Singh, get ready to go to the court.

Pray that you don’t get the noose.

Mike!

We lost, Michael.

- All four of us! - All four seats and that too with such a small margin!

So what? We will stand in the general election, next time.

Not with four, but forty seats.

Nobody knew us this time.

Next time, we will go to every village and tell them what we are...

You are lying!

- All the four seats! We won all the four seats! - We won Michael!

“Oh youth.”

“Oh youth.”

Come Michael.

You have come here.

Let’s see how long you stay here.

The Enquiry Commission Report is about to come.

Maybe you won’t be able to stay here.

Many people have come here before you.

To change the world.

But some ran away and some changed themselves.

Come. Welcome.
