"Bitu....." "Did you Steal?" "To steal is a sin." "Do you know what happens when... a thief goes to heaven?" "God will cut his hands!" "Cut his hands?" "Yes!" "Here...take your toys." "l gave the toys back." "Bravo!" "Let me tell you a story." "What story?" "Natwarlal's story." "Natwarlal's story?" "Yes." "Natwarlal was an innocent and.." "loving boy." "He was an orphan." "He had a brother and sister-in law." "Under who's grace he was living." "Brother.." "Brother!" "You did say you would bring me toys!" "Get your toys from your..." "Sister-ln Law!" "Here is your toy." "What is that?" "It's a medal son." "Your brother earned by his... bravery and honesty." "What does bravery mean?" "Here!" "..." "Put this on your head." "Bravery is when... dacoits and thieves fight between..." "themselves...and bullets fly!" "And when bullets are fired..." "and thieves are caught!" "I will also catch thieves!" "Bravo!" "Thief!" "....thief!" "Enough....enough." "Come my lion!" "Very good!" "Brother..." "When I grow up..." "I will also become an inspector." "I will bring a lot of medals.. and put them around your neck!" "Son..you will get big if you... eat well!" "Bhabi....you don't talk to me!" "Why?" ".." "Why are you angry with your Bhabi?" "Bhabi said she would bring a doll!" "You didn't bring a doll!" "And you want me to eat?" "So now even he knows" "Son..." "let's do one thing.." "Both me and you.... we will not eat." "We should know if a girl is coming..." "or a boy is coming." "What is it?" "There you go again like a kid!" "Come Natwar..." "let's eat." "Do this..." "In this situation.. one doesn't lift.." "I'll take Natwar." "Let's go." "They loved him like a... mother and father." "They taught him about truth and..." "honesty." "But his brother's truth and honesty.." "created a wall between some people." "Especially for Vikram Singh." "When Vikram's friend Mickey... told Vikram about Inspector's..." "truth and honesty..." "He carelessly told him.." "to buy such honest and law abiding.." "people.." "is an easy accomplishment." "Because Vikram was known as a king.. of black marketing!" "Because he was proud of his.. knowledge and power." "He would say one thing..." "V for Vikram...." "V for Victory!" "And this was a sign of his... pride and power." "And to break this sign.." "Gardarilal.. made a vow..." "But in search of proof..." "Gardarilal found nothing!" "Or if he found anything..." "it was Vikram's enemity." "I have dowsed your whole house.. with gasoline." "But I haven't set it on fire." "There was need for only one match." "And your house would have burned.. to smithereens." "Go in your house..and see your.. hearts content...and the snake next to her!" "How did this snake get here?" "Nothing Beta.....nothing!" "I could have put enough snakes that you could not even walk!" "And don't mess with me!" "You may have come to know who I am." "Your enemy....who could have been... your friend." "Coward!" "Scares women and children!" "Have guts...and take me on!" "Saab..." "He was on his way to commit murder." "Who did you plan to murder?" "I want to talk to you in private." "What do you want to talk about?" "Vikram.." "You people...go outside!" "Close the door." "Tell me how you know Vikram." "Me and my brother worked with Vikram." "Yesterday...." "Vikram killed my brother!" "Put a bullet to him!" "..." "I will kill him!" "lt's OK..." "Ok..." "Don't cry." "lf you help us out..." "The law will punish Vikram!" "Tell me the true whereabouts of Vikram." "Saab..." "They are to kidnap me at 7:00.. from the fields." "You followthem...you will find... there whereabouts." "Look..." "let him go." "Go..." "Bravo!" "And by chance...the CBl raided Gardarilal's office." "Or on him, they found bribe monies." "And he was caught in Vikram's web." "And Vikram became yet more daring." "The case against Gardarilal began." "This honest man was accused of dishonesty." "Natwarlal did not understand why this was happening to his brother." "Who is this Vikram?" "Gardarilal wanted to cleanse the accusations against him." "He wanted to showthe real intentions.. of Vikram." "He knew, that if he had no proof... the law would consider him a traitor." "He and his family would be ruined." "The age that Natwar was to learn from.." "..his brother.." "his brother was constantly worried." "And Gardarilal..he could not bear.." "Vikram's name." "He wanted to break the signs if Vikram." "While laughing..he put his hands on the.. sign...and... by chance...the sign turned and moved." "He then found the hideout of Vikram." "He found the proof of his innocence." "But Vikram was on his way to ruin..." "Gardarilal's household." "Bhabi was laying in the hospital... unconscious." "But Natwar's eyes were on something else." "The doctor told Gadarilal that his.." "wife's womb had been damaged." "She could never become a mother." "Bhabi accepted this fact.." "She wiped away her tears.." "She thought..my womb is not damaged.." "God took away my womb before anyways." "She told her husband..." "As of today..." "Natwar is my son!" "Natwar hugged his Babhi." "And his Bahbi...became his mother." "Natwar...take this medal.. you had lost yours.." "I have brought it for you." "Put this around your neck." "But Natwar did not wear the medal of.. honesty." "He sawthe faces of dishonesty...that... the word of honesty he could not understand." "His brother was next to him.." "What are you doing in the darkness, Natwar?" "You can see the money better in the light." "We knew you'd surely come here." "I also knew you would come here, once I had arrived." " You knew, and yet you came here?" " Well, I had to I've come to be fond of you people." "Although you try to hoodwink me in your business your eyes give your intentions away." "Will you be able to walk out with the money?" "Yes, of course!" "You people will not stop me." "No..." "Even if you do, Mr. Agarwal is always there to help me." "He and his rich wife are my very old friends." "And you perhaps don't know, he was already married once in the village." "Should this fact come to light, he'll be sent to prison." "What say, Mr. Agarwal?" "..." "He's a pal." "He's sure to help me." "Mr. Malhotra!" "An old buddy!" "Now here's a famous personality, who figures in the who's who of society." "You intend to contest the elections, don't you?" "So what if you indulge in a few shady deals?" "Only I know about them." "The police know nothing." "Nowtell me, won't they have a soft corner for me?" "Yes, you're right." "And why won't they have a soft corner for you?" "You knowtheir weaknesses." "So, it's impossible to stop you." "But don't forget; you are one of them, too." "You operate under the cover of dark- ness, so that no one discovers you." "Today, however, you cannot harm us, for we have brought darkness too." "Natwar robbed black marketeers and smugglers and and distributed their ill-gotten wealth amongst the poor." "He told his sister-in-law that he was a businessman." "Which is why he had to often keep away from home on business." "But Girdharilal knew just how deeply his brother was involved." "But he couldn't bring himself about to tell his wife about it." "Because she could never have survived the shock." "No!" "No!" "Don't take the sheet off..." "I'm charred completely." " Who are you?" " l'm a thief." "And why have you called me here?" "I have been cheated, Natwar." "Having made me work for them, they tried to kill me with a time-bomb." "That is what burnt me, too." "What are you crying about?" "Before stepping into this profession, you should've known that no thief dies a natural death, but is killed instead." "But, you too are a thief, Natwar." "Yes." "But I know what I'm heading for." "To begin with, I will never let such an occasion arise..." "But if that happens, Natwar's eyes will never be filled with tears." "I know you are brave." "And that is why I have called you here." "There is a very expensive necklace in Mr. Fakirchand's safe." "I was assigned the task of stealing it and rushing it to the Chandanpur border by the 10th." "But I cannot do that, in my present condition." "Please do me the favor of stealing it and reaching it to Chandanpur." "If it doesn't get there by the 10th..." "that man is so dangerous that he'll ferret me out and kill me." "Please do this favor for me." "You're knocking on the wrong door." "I've never worked for anyone before." "I'm in deep trouble!" "Please help me." "I'm feeling sorry for you." "Keep this...you won't starve to death." "I don't need money!" "I need your support." "Okay. I'd rather kill myself than die at the hands of Vikram Singh." "Wait !" "Who is this Vikram?" "Vikram is a dangerous criminal." " ls he the who was with Micky?" " Yes." "But Micky is dead !" "Okay. I'll take that necklace and go to Chandanpur." "Wonderful!" "You pretended to die, and had Vikram trapped!" "It will be wonderful only when Natwar kills Vikram." "Because that bastard has spread a dangerous trap in Chandanpur." "Natwarlal's genius will outwit all those traps." "I've made no mistake in suggesting Natwarlal's name to you." "Do one thing, Fakirchand." "Announce an auction of that necklace." "I want to see Natwar stealing it in the presence of so many others." "This is the necklace I was speaking about." "You must have seen and bought several priceless necklaces." "But this necklace is a virtual vase of diamonds!" "Speak up, gentlemen!" "Quote your price." "25 lakhs!" "Are you serious about buying a diamond necklace!" " 10 million!" " Good!" "That's a good start." " Yes...you said something..." " 10 million and a hundred thousand." " 1.5..." " Million!" "The necklace is gradually coming in your direction!" "Raj!" "What's the matter?" "Oh really!" "?" "Friends, looks like we'll have to call off the auction today." "You'll be pleased to knowthat on hearing of this auction Mr. Ford from America, Sophia Loren from Italy and the Duke of France are all coming here." "No!" "He could even be 'luke' for all I care." "I'm willing to pay Rs.5 lakh more than whatever price they quote but please let me have that necklace." "I appreciate your sentiments." "But I need to be excused till tomorrow." "Please try to understand my plight." "Friends, this safe will now be opened only tomorrow." "Will you keep that expensive necklace in this kind of a safe!" "What !" "Do you think this is an ordinary safe?" "!" "But, still...will our expensive necklace be safe in it?" "Oh sir!" "...you, too!" "Friends, I invite all experts in safe- opening tomorrow before the auction." "I will personally give a reward of Rs 10,000 to anyone who opens the safe!" "In that case, I too will come tomorrow." "So....you'll go tomorrow." "And if I don't go?" "That you knowvery well." "And you also knowthat I... won't let you go." "Why?" "What's my fault?" "Fault?" "Your fault starts at the beginning." "You've seen the necklace." "And yes...you were ready to buy it." "For 1.5 million." "He did not sell it." "l see.." "Otherwise you would have bought it." "So what are your plans now?" "What plans can I have?" "It was such a beautiful thing.." "I went to see it." "If you go to Agra..you see the Taj.." "Akbar's Killa.." "Now you will see the jail!" "Understand!" "Anyway's...you are seeing dreams." "We will see!" "For years you have slipped through.. my fingers." "But now I have all the proof." "And if I don't send you to jail for 2 year..." "my name won't be Inspector Gardarilal!" "Inspector!" ".." "That's the man!" "Oh!" "..." "So that's the man!" "You might have recognized him.." "Mr. Natwarlal." "Inspector..these day's I help the poor.. and helpless, how many faces can I recognize?" "They are not poor people...but smugglers!" "Oh!" ".." "By their face they look like beggars!" "Shut up!" "Then what happened?" "He threatened me at Silver Beach last.." "night!" "What time?" "8:00" "And he started saying he's a..." "cid Inspector!" "So now your also a cid Inspector." "Then?" "..." "He put my merchandise in my car..." "Take him away." "You're smiling!" "l feel like laughing hard...but I go on by smiling." "Where are the goods?" "What goods?" "The goods you stole!" "Give me some sugar." "Hey Natwarlal..you scared the.. hell out of me!" "Was looking for you all over." "Found out you're here." "You?" "How are you inspector Saab?" "You forgot?" "Yesterday evening you made plans.. to build a factory." "Last night he was at Silver Beach!" "What are you saying!" "He was with me from 7-10 PM!" "Let's go.." "Quickly let me know of the plans." "Commissioner Saab needs to go to.. a meeting." "What time is the meeting?" "5:00 in the evening." "And your solid proof?" "Anyways." "I couldn't finish the tea.." "I'll come again for lunch." "Come Setji!" "You need something from me?" "Yes..." "l did what you told me to do right?" "Now you'll forgive me?" "The affair with the secratary.." "you won't tell my wife." "Who's wife?" "What secratary?" "..." "Who are you?" "I'm Damdas." "You don't know me?" "No I don't know you." "You don't know me?" "Okay...you don't know me... you don't know me!" "Wow!" "How did you know I wanted aloo pratha!" "We'll..." "I was thinking of you." "And you're here?" "You remembered me...and here I am!" "Look how you're sweating!" "I'm grown up... and you still worry about me!" "Grown up...but your maturity is.. still like a kid!" "Don't talk about maturity!" "My maturity has made me what I am." "American's are willing to give me.." "5 million for my picture!" "And I said 5 million?" "If the French are willing to.. give 8 million.." "why should I accept 5 million?" "And you're saying..." "That's enough....eat your food.." "Bhabi..you're food could be 15 days.. old and I would still eat it." "What are you saying?" "You don't even know!" "Elders have said that by touching.. your mothers feet.." "is like being in heaven..." "You talk too much!" "I talk only in front of you." "No one listens to me." "And brother...when he listens.." "he gets angry like a chime." "There it goes." "Brother's here.." "Be careful...he's angry today." "Don't worry.." "I'll see." "Natwar came?" "Didn't even step inside..already..." "talking about my son!" "After him 24 hours a day!" "Wow!" ".." "What an innocent you found!" "And if he's innocent...figure.." "the whole world is evil!" "What are you saying?" "What kind of talk about your brother!" "Today it's me who's talking." "And if you here about is shenanigans.." "you'll also talk about him like this!" "What did he do?" "He's a...." "Please go and get my dinner.." "I don't have time..have to go to the office!" "And listen...you're not an officer.." "that I have to report all about Natwar!" "What report will you give?" "I know everything..." "You're angry because..." "her doesn't want to work as you say!" "Why should he?" "What have you earned from your hard work?" "He wants to do business....business!" "Do you realize what business he wants.. to do?" "Business is business brother!" "And I want to do that kind of business.." "that I make a little investment.." "and make a little." "A little for the laborer.." "a little for Uncle Sam.." "a little for god...and the rest for you!" "See!" "Get out from here!" "What were you doing down there?" "My hanky fell.." "I was..... lf your hanky keep falling... you will also fall like that!" "And you won't be able to pick yourself up!" "Next time I'll tie a thread.. it won't fall." "Sit." "You sit." "l said sit!" "How can I sit when you're standing up?" "See how he respects you?" "Will you leave or not?" "Go from here!" "I know how much he respects!" "Look Natwar.." "Yes?" "I'll give you your last warning." "last time you gave me your last warning?" "Get that necklace out of your mind.. understand?" "Necklace?" "What necklace?" "Oh!" ".." "That necklace.." "l'm purchasing that for Bhabi." "Look...it's been so long... you couldn't even buy Bhabi a.. gold necklace." "And I'll buy Bhabi a great necklace.. right Bhabi?" "Will you wear it?" "How can I wear such a necklace... at this age?" "Bring it..." "I'll put it on... my daughter in law." "Put it on the Daughter ln Law later first bring the food!" "Look Natwar..." "That necklace is so..." "valuable.." "the one who steals it will spend.. at least 10 years in jail." "10 years?" "..." "No my business won't take 10 years!" "Not even 10 months...10 days!" "In 10 day's..exporting will start.." "money will start rolling in..." "Go for it!" "Do what you want..." "I'll see how he stops you!" "Look!" "What?" "When I try to lecture him..." "you always interfere!" "Why shouldn't I?" "lsn't he my son?" "Calling him son...you've spoiled him!" "Now he has become bad!" "What does he do that's bad?" "Ask him!" "See!" "...." "He took off!" "He even ate the Pratha's!" "Now what will I eat?" "Yes!" "Try your best!" "Very good!" "Succeed and take away a reward of Rs.10, 000 !" "Oh!" "So, you too have failed to open it." "I had already said it's impossible to open this safe!" "It's simply unique!" "It is possible, since I still haven't tried my hand at it." "Sure!" "Every expert will be given a chance to try his luck!" "You will not go there." "But why, Inspector!" "Because this safe holds a very precious necklace." "And it is our duty to guard the necklace." "Your duty begins only after the safe is opened." "But you don't happen to knowthis man." "He is..." " Yes, go on!" " He will not say anything." "This will just not open!" "No one can open this safe." "Friends..." "I will now open this safe!" "This way...and this, and a little of..." " What's that!" "Let me pray!" " Pray to Him?" "How often have I told you not to talk nonsense in His presence?" "Some God that one!" "He stole butter as a child and got caught." "And you're now appeasing him!" "Don't say that!" "It's a sin!" "Bowto him and beg for his forgiveness." "Apologize to him!" "Why?" "What does He have, that I do not?" "Stop it now..." "For my sake!" "Okay..." "I won't say anything." "I'm quiet, only because she asked me to be." "Else..." "You will never learn." "And why are you here?" "I am leaving." " Are you leaving again?" " Yes." "Look, your grouse is that I always go far away from you." "But today I'm leaving for the last time." "The need to leave you will never arise again." "I'll always be here... close to you." " But where are you going?" " To Chandanpur." " Have you asked your brother?" " No." "Don't say anything to him." "Else, everything will be ruined." "Okay, I won't say anything." "But take His blessings." "That's actually why I came here." "Now bless me quickly!" "I very well knowthat you are aware of his whereabouts." "Don't shout!" "You're a policewoman!" "Why don't you find him yourself?" "When your own brother is a foe, how can you blame others?" "I know, brother, I've caused you a lot of pain but I'm now going to fight the battle for which I have waited for 20 years now." "I'm going to battle the devil, who took me away from you who stole my honesty and integrity." "I am leaving to fight that very battle." "I will return, only if I have triumphed." "With my honesty and integrity restored to me." "I'll return as the same old Natwar...your Natwar." "So, Natwar did fall for my trap." "Do one thing; wait at the border of Chandanpur keep a vigil on both of them." "They will try to kill each other." "Look for an opportunity, and report to me." "We'll kill both of them." "Get going now." "Neither Natwar nor Vikram will survive..." "Only Micky will." "And the diamond-mines will belong only to me!" "Mobilize your forces from now itself." "So much of hatred!" "Only 20 years ago, you were said to be best of friends in the underworld." "How did that friendship then turn into enemity?" ""Greed" is the only cause for that to have happened." "20 years ago, when we fled the nation Vikram was in dire straits." "It was I who helped him in those days." "But do you know how he repaid me, once he turned rich and powerful?" "This is what he gave me in return." "What is this, Mr. Micky?" "This is a sign you will find on the backs of all residents of Chandanpur." "He has spread the terror of the tiger in that area and has turned every man into his slave." "Well done!" "Continue to bring 2 or 3 people at a time." "Very soon, the whole village will have assembled here." "Take them away and put them to work." "If you wish, we could bring the whole village here, sir." "No..." "Never make that mistake." "Do that and you will set the B.S.F. on a hunt for them." "Bring 2 or 3 men at a time and the villagers will think they were hunted by the tiger." "Please do something, Chief..." "What a calamity has befallen us!" "In just two months, that man-eater has preyed on 300 people." "At this rate, no house here will be spared the destruction." "What is this calamity disaster we're facing!" "People are fast running out of provisions." "If one steps out of his house, the tiger preys on him." "And if he stays indoors, starvation kills him." "I just don't know what to do." "I had heard of a hunter called Avtar Singh, last year." "I have blocked all routes leading to Chandanpur." "So the foolish villagers tried to send you a message with a pigeon." "But the fools don't know that in this area even the birds can't flutter their wings without my say so!" "And when they do, this is what we do with them." "Fools!" "They think you've gone to hunt the tiger for them!" "They don't knowthat I've hunted the man who was to kill the tiger!" "This is the narrow path that leads to the village." "Take that route and you will reach Chandanpur in 24 hours." "Are you..." "Avtar Singh?" "Are you...the hunter?" "Yes..." "I'm the hunter." "The hunter has arrived!" "Our prayers have been heard!" "What are you all doing?" "Let him first take rest." "He must be tired." "Go away now. I'll explain our plight to him." "Chandanpur has always been a peaceful village." "There was no trouble ever before." "People freely moved about to earn their livelihood." "Now it appears that devastation has been let loose on us." "Did you see that old woman cry?" "She lost her young son." "Did you see that young woman?" "She lost her husband." "A brother...a son..." "There's mourning in every house of the village." "Destruction is what has wrecked our peaceful existence." "What happened?" "What's the reason?" "There's a man-eating tiger on the prowl." " A tiger?" " Yes." "For some months now, there has been this tiger stalking the village." "Which has spread panic all around." "They all look to me for help." "But how can an old man help them?" "What noise is that?" "It's the sound of the drums beating." "News of your arrival is being communicated to other villages." "We still followthis method of communication in the village." "Rest for a while..." "I'll make arrangements for your meal." "He's beating away to glory!" ""Nattu", my boy...!" "Quietly slip away!" "Else you'll get stuck with something other than what you are here for." "Oh!" "So, you are here too!" "The villagers are beating the drums." "Go and help them." "Tell me one thing..." "Just how relevant are you?" "Back home, you play the flute and fool my poor sister-in-law and you fool the villagers here with your child-like appearance." "Your grin won't help!" "Do something about it!" "is it my job to kill the tiger?" "Even if it is, why should I kill it?" "I could have easily bumped off a gangster or a smuggler." "But a tiger?" "!" "Why should I?" "Never...no!" "I will not kill a tiger." "I'm pushing off..." "And I've something to tell you, too." "If you can work a miracle, come out of that frame..." "Or quietly scoot!" "I'm making arrangements for a get-away." "Stop it now." "You wish to get me killed." "Where do I get away from...?" "The place is a virtual puzzle." "And that silly Vikram had to come here of all places!" "He could have chosen Paris or London..." "The fool came here instead!" "Where is it?" "Run, Nattu-boy!" "Scurry away!" "Shanno, run!" "Don't chase the tiger unarmed!" "Bloody nut!" "What were you getting into ?" "!" "For the first time today, the tiger went away without killing anyone." "You have come to this village, not as a human being, but as an angel." "Don't ever desert us... don't ever desert the helpless!" "I'm very much here, aren't I?" "What are you worried about then?" "Come, let's go." "Mr. Micky has chosen the right man." "Let's see what he does." "I should stay back here." "Today is the 8th..." "I'll meet Vikram on the 10th." "After I kill him, I'll tell the villagers to deal with the beast." "Thank you very much." "You saved my life..." "That's alright...but you'd better be careful." "Tigers are very romantic they just can't resist a beauty." "Why are you worried?" "I mean, till I'm here, it won't dare to come near you." "He's a mute...that's his way of expressing his happiness." " A mute ?" "!" " Yes." "He used to stay in the village behind the hills." "When the tiger ravaged their village, we gave him shelter." "He's a good marksman." "But I killed Avtar Singh." "Where did his incarnation surface from?" "But he claims to be Avtar Singh himself." "Go and find out who this man is, Zimbo." "What a weird place you've found for yourself, Vikram Singh!" "A dense forest...with neither man nor a soul around man there is!" "is this a "no-entry" zone?" "That's okay. I'll take this route." "Wonderful!" "..." "First, greet each other and get acquainted." "Become thick friends and then foes, and then hit me...that makes sense." "You just can't go around bashing up everyone in sight!" "Where have I landed !" "Hey!" "What are you doing?" "Are you educated?" "If not, have you at least "seen" a school?" "!" "Just a minute." "Hey mister?" "Care to look this way?" "Aren't you really a human-being?" "If you cannot fall, you can at least shake, can't you!" "Did I say something offensive?" "Will you fling me on the tree again?" "Mr. Wrestler..." "I hope you aren't put to trouble." "Tell me, who are you?" "With my head stuck in the sky and my body suspended in thin-air you're asking me for my name!" "I don't even remember my address!" " Nowtell me!" " What should I tell you?" " Who are you?" " And who're you to ask me that!" "Did I ask you why you're so repulsive and ugly?" "Or what is your name...or that of your father's ?" "Whether you had a father or not." "If you did, then why did you?" "!" "And if you didn't have one, then how did you happen to be...?" "Didn't I tell you you'd get hurt?" "You see, there's no bitterness or enemity between us." "Now come one!" "..." "Better watch out...!" "I'll hit you!" "Hey!" "This broke into two!" "It used to be this big..." "and now...half of it...well..." "You've got it all right in there." "I think, it would be in my interests, to quietly run away from here!" "Stop here..." "A quicksand ahead and the wrestler hot on my heels!" "Save me!" "Help!" " So, you did fall in it, eh?" " Pull me out, please!" "Why should I, huh?" "Once you're out, you'll ask for my name again!" "I won't. I really won't!" " And what if you do?" " You can throw me back into this!" "Yes." "That sounds reasonable." "But, heh!" "Who's going to carry am Amazon like you?" "!" " Now wait, till I arrange something." " Hurry up!" "Here, hold on to this!" "It broke!" "This is no man." "He's a bulldozer!" "Please save me!" "This looks too sturdy. I'll take this one instead." "Here, nowtake this!" "Where did he go?" "Hey, Wrestler!" "I think he's sunk." "He simply spoilt my clothes." "This path leads to the border." "So, this is the border." "And that fool has to come from here." "But why was that wrestler after my life?" "The burnt man was to arrive." "But I did." "That too, two days in advance." "Anyway, I might as well hang around for 2 days and see!" "The hunter has come!" "Run !" "Look who has come!" "Come to me children..." "I'll tell you a story today." "Do you want to hear the story about the tiger?" "Go, my son." "He easily killed Zimbo and now he's become friendly with the villagers." "Who is this man?" "is he here on a picnic?" " l'll kill him, if you wish." " Don't ever make that mistake." "If he's a cop or from the BSF, they'll attack this place." " Just do one thing." " Yes ?" "There's a BSFoutpost, 60 miles from here." "Go there and find out whether this man belongs to them." "l'll inform you by tomorrow evening." " And wait... lnstruct Gunga (the mute) at Chandanpur to search his place." "We won't let him get away." "Go and tell him that you've taken his heart, and given your own to him." "Speak about him and he's here!" "What are they giggling for?" "Are they getting tickled?" "Hey!" "At least tell me." "Why are you running away?" "Tell me." " No..." " So, won't you tell him?" "See what we do with him then!" " Go in." " No. I won't." "How won't you go in?" "Go and express your love for him." "Till nowthey kept asking for my name." "Nowthey ransack my place too!" "Nattu-boy...does this Vikram stay nearby?" "Welcome!" "Do you have some work?" "May I set your room right?" "Not right now. I'm very angry just now." " May I set that right too?" " What?" "I mean, do you want me to press your head for you?" "No. I press my own hands, feet, head and neck." "Thank you!" "Now please leave. lf people see us, what would they think?" "What do you mean by what would they?" "They're already saying it." " Now what are they saying?" " Just that, I'm your...beloved." "...and that my entire life shall be at your feet." "What nonsense are you talking!" "Get up." "Well now, is it because of that song... I only thought it was your festival and joined you...don't get ideas!" " Now get going." " Please don't say that. I am..." "You seem to have hung on!" "Now listen to this carefully." "Don't ever get involved with me." "I'm a free-bird...never at one place." "You'll only regret it, if you get involved with me." "Neither do I have a place at my feet, nor do I need a lover." "Please don't say that... else, I'll kill myself." "Please go ahead!" "What are you waiting here for?" "Get lost!" "Kill myself!" "...." "Kill myself!" "Doing what I want..." "Got myself.. stuck in other matters!" "Forgive me!" "l'm not like you." "Yes.." "A line of Girl's.." "Music is playing...and the girls are dancing!" "I don't make girls dance." "I make the world dance around my fingers!" "Kill myself!" "Don't know where..." "Kill myself?" "Hey Natu..these people are crazy!" "She won't really kill herself?" "Hey...where are you going?" "To commit suicide!" "Oh god!" "..." "Suicide?" "What happened?" "What happened?" "He doesn't love me!" "I told him I'm you're caretaker.." "He said I don't need a caretaker!" "I told him my life is yours." "He said I don't need your life!" "Go ahead and commit suicide!" "Raju..." "I'm going to commit suicide.." "Please don't stop me!" "He said kill yourself.." "..and your going to do it?" "And what else should I do?" "I'll tell you.." "You were giving me a lesson then.." "That if a woman's love is true.." "it will turn a stone to a flower." "Flower to water.." "And your turn.." "neither flower nor water!" "Your endeavors are making my stomach turn!" "And my heart is broken..you don't even care!" "Your stomach is broken...your worried!" "Your heart is not broken.. he loves you!" "No he doesn't love me!" "No one love you?" "No!" "Then look...there he comes." "You hide and watch the drama." "Hide!" "Go!" "Hey Rajo.." "Did you see her?" "What is it?" ".." "What happened?" "Shanno fell from there!" "What?" "..." "What are you saying?" "You don't believe me.." "..then see for yourself!" "At that time I was only kidding.." "..but now I'm not kidding." "I am that free man who never sits." "I have no homestead." "I am one of those that have no.." "..love.." "loving...nothing." "Don't look for dreams for me." "They will break for you." "I can't give you anything." "All will happen...and you will.. receive nothing." "lt's OK.." "Please forgive me." "I was mistaken." "Now I will never meet you again.." "Never!" "So you found nothing in his room. I cannot take any risk." "I cannot leave this diamond of mine and go out." "The drums saved him the last time. I'll see how he escapes now." "Six decades ago, a mendicant came here as an angel.." "...and it looks as if that angel has returned in you." "You have brought us the message of life." "You have not only saved my daughter, but also my life." "Foolish people!" "What did I do?" "I barely managed to survive myself!" "Or I'd almost had it today!" "And excuse me!" "You've done nothing, too!" "You're smiling, are you?" "What are you doing here?" "Speak up!" "Don't act dumb." " Herbs." " What herbs?" "For your wounds." "Then apply it." "Come on." "Hurry up." "Sit down... now apply it." "Gently." "Apply some here, too." "Come closer." "Rest your head here." "Hey, what happened?" "Shanno, no..." "So, you have accepted me, haven't you?" "I'm surprised. I've seen many types of people in the world that I couldn't believe in your love for me." "You do believe me now, don't you?" "If I hadn't, I'd have told you so at the door itself..." "Now I want to see my Shano.." "become queen Shano." "From head to toe..diamonds." "The worlds most beautiful queen." "Style your hair in Paris..clothes.." "from America..marriage in London!" "And we will take our Buffaloes with us." "Buffaloes?" "l've heard the milk in the cities is not good." "We'll take the buffaloes." "The milk will be like home." "And the butter too!" "Do you have goats also?" "Yes two!" "You have a plow as well?" "Yes!" "But what will we do with that?" "We'll we can also farm!" "Then the food will also be home grown!" "Oh God!" "l heard that women are dumb.." "But this dumb.." "I just discovered today!" "Why?" "What did I do?" "You think of me as a gardener.." "Think of me as a gwala.." "Day and night I'll milk goats?" "No no.." "Why you?" "..." "I'll do it!" "No.." "You won't milk the goats!" "You'll milk your brain!" "I'm talking about love.. and you're talking about goats?" "Become stylish.." "Put a little pizzazz in your talk!" "Come here!" "Hugged my love....keep on hugging till.." "I can't even see the world!" "And far away...build a small house for ourselves." "Where there's Bhabi, Brother, you and me." "How come the idiot ssp has not come?" "What is he doing?" "Chandanpur?" "What's your name?" "Sukia.." "But the road to Chandanpur is near the border." "What are you doing here?" "l'm thirsty." "Can I get a little water?" "Ram Singh!" "..." "Yes?" "This gentleman has arrived from Chandanpur." "Chandanpur?" "Bring him inside!" "Inspector, bring a glass of water." "Sit Ram Singh." "Tell me how Chandanpur is." "All are fine." "It's been such a long time since.. you visited..." "The whole town misses you." "I also remember a lot." "Yes but it will be 3 months before.. you visit again." "3 months?" ".." "Yes..he has to build a border.. post." "For four months now, neither the BSFnor the police can come here." "I'm the Uncrowned King around here!" "I can do just as I please!" "Bring people from Sholapur, Chandanpur, Kashipur...everywhere!" "Every hidden diamond must be found." "I want to be the world's richest man." " What happened?" " A new problem!" "Some men, astride their horses, forcibly carried our people away." " Riders, eh?" " Yes." "They went towards the valley." "Towards the valley...but that is where the tiger is." "Men on horsebacks... the tiger my arrival here... the necklace." "There is a priceless necklace in Fakirchand's safe, Natwar." "Steal it and deliver it to Chandanpur." "Nattu-boy!" "You were fooled, weren't you?" "The necklace was a mere excuse to trap you in Vikram's gameplan." "The tiger and the riders both belong to him." "It would therefore be best to admit your mistake and work out a solution." "What happened?" "Why are you laughing?" "The fear of the tiger has been spread in the village." "Deliberately spread?" "But who would spread it?" " There is a devil." " What's his name?" "Don't worry about him. I'll deal with him later." "First, catch the tiger" "Tiger!" "So he's planning to catch the tiger, is he?" "He will not trap the tiger." "I want to see your aim." "Enough...the pit is deep enough." "Cover it with this." "Hurry up....that's good." "What will he do with the dummy?" "is that a dummy you've put up there?" "Yes...it's been dressed like a girl." "The tiger will take it to be human and get trapped." "It's a man-eater. lt won't approach, unless it gets the human scent." "Those people standing there..." "ask them to hide behind it." "What are you doing here?" "Move away." "A man-eater!" "Whom should I prepare?" "Who'd be willing to give up his life?" "Well, let's see." "Look at that dummy!" "Shanno!" "Run !" "Catch it!" "Don't let it escape!" "Have a cage made for it and lock it up." "Go home. I'll bring some medicines for you." "What's this?" "Come here." "What stupidity is this?" "Who asked you to stand near the dummy?" "You claim to have your world at my feet. ls this how a lover behaves?" "Did you ask me before going there?" "It's okay...it's good that you went and stood there." "How else could we have trapped the tiger?" "I didn't mean it." " Really?" " Oh yes." "How could I scold you?" "Rajjo, Shanno...don't cry, my children." "Pray to the Lord..." "What did you do?" "You sacrificed your life, to save mine." "So what?" "I gave my life, for my son." "You came here to banish the devil." "Don't leave without doing so." "I am going now henceforth, the village and its people shall live in your care." ""l've given my life for my son"" ""Henceforth, this village and its people shall live in your care"" "Wait!" "Don't rejoice so much over such a minor victory." "The consequences could be dire tomorrow." "The battle has just begun." "We have to face him together." "Use the drums and call people from nearby villages." "Prepare yourself!" "He's assembling people from neighboring villages." "But we have to finish him before he does that." "What are we to do about this fellow?" "If he remains here, they will kill him." " Relax." "We're thinking about you." " Let's take him along." "Come on." "Hurry up." "Take all your stuff up there." "Alright!" "Hey, Shanno!" "Come here." " What is it?" " Look, he too is running on top." "Hide in some corner up there." "Or you'll be exposed." " What is it?" " Nothing." "You go to that side and you to this." "Hurry up." "Move upwards!" "Enough." "Collect all the boulders here." "Attack!" "The enemy has fled!" "No... that devil is still there." "How long will you escape me, Vikram?" "You'll surely be caught one day." "You cannot catch him." "He's destined to die at my hands." "Just see how I lead him to his death." "Come quickly." "Look over there." "Someone is approaching." "Seems to be an old man. I'll go and find out." " l'll come along, too." " No." "Don't you dare follow me!" "Get me a horse." "He's asked you not to follow him, Shanno." "Wait here." "He's given a lot of trouble." "But not in the future." "Remember one thing;" "leave so much life in him so he can see his death." "If she's here, he will surely come too." "Grab her!" "Where is Shanno?" "She had followed you." "What is that noise?" " Hello, beauty!" " Killer-looks, indeed!" "You won't listen, will you?" "Had I not told you, not to follow me?" "But you will always pester me!" " What are you grinning for?" " l know you're only joking." "I'm not joking. I'm really very angry with you!" "Alright. I was only joking!" "You always do what is forbidden." "Okay..." "I'm very serious about what I'm about to say just now." "Don't follow me. lf you do, I'll not only scold you, but spank you too!" "I'll give you a sound thrashing!" "Understand?" "Now scoot!" "Nothing will happen to me!" "Go now!" "Look. I have the protection of your 'powerful' love." "Even the God of Death wouldn't be able to withstand the power!" "Nothing will happen to me." "Go now." "Not here..go there." "What nonsense are you talking!" "How did you let him go?" "I risked my life to bring him here and you allowed him to get away!" "But who is this man?" "He's neither from the BSF, nor from the police." "Why has this urbanite come to a small village like Chandanpur?" " Who is this man?" " l am that man." "My name is Natwar. I am lnspector Girdharilal's younger brother." "Remember?" "Inspector Girdharilal..." "20 years ago...try and remember." "I've come to settle a 20-year old score with you." "I know you're a coward." "You wouldn't ever step out of here." "You can show your strength only to the weak and downtrodden." "But I will compel you to come out in the open." "And the day you come out..." "will be the last day of your life." "Listen;" "Block all roads leading to the BSFand to the city." "So this is why he came here from the city, did he?" "What are you thinking?" "What happened?" "I asked what happened?" "I'm beating my head against the wall!" "Why are you beating your head?" "is there a problem?" "Tell me.." "I'll pray to god and wipe your problems away." "God will solve my problems?" "He can't solve your problem.." "How can he solve mine?" "What are you saying?" "I'm telling the truth!" "Every morning you donate coconuts!" "What problem has he solved?" "By donating..you have raised the price.. of coconuts!" "Don't talk like this!" "You will be jinxed!" "No I won't!" "Sit there I'll tell you... sit sit!" "I'll tell you how I'll solve my problem!" "You keep saying yes!" "First let me say something!" ".." "Then say yes!" "The enemy is powerful." "Why are you quite!" "Say yes!" "lt is difficult to reach there." "Yes." "Because he is surrounded by the enemy." "Yes." "To break the ring is difficult." "Yes." "And he does not come outside." "Yes." "And why doesn't he come out?" "l what did I tell you!" "l don't want chatter." " Just say yes!" "Why doesn't he come outside!" "Question is why doesn't he come out!" "Yes." "Answer is that he doesn't come out.. because...." "Because he is greedy." "Yes." "His greediness kept him locked up." "How can you get him out under this.. condition." "How can you get him out under this.. condition!" "Don't say yes...give me an answer.. how can he get out?" "Greediness has kept him locked up.. right?" "And if he can get out?" "His greediness will also get out." "Shut up!" "Talking!" "Yes!" "..." "Aside from my heart...you also.. have taken my mind!" "All points on the Terai and BSF have been covered by our people." "Natwar can't reach there." "He won't go anywhere." "He'll come here directly." "Guards have been alerted to ensure that he can't come in." "The devil has been lured." "He'll surely come here." "Ramu, take care of this." "So many of them!" "Our people were guarding all points. I'm sure of that." "Don't worry. I won't blame you." "I want to kill Natwar." "Not you." "How many days of food-stock are they holding in the settlement there?" "Plenty, Mr. Vikram." "They can pull on for months." "Months!" "You will go in there, just like he had come in here." "And you must throw all the food grains down the hill." "I'll encircle the mountain." "Let's see howthey survive on the rocks there." "You're starving these people to death." "And the hungry can't fight Vikram." "Don't think you've won or that I've lost, because you've got the diamonds." "When you're hungry, you'll need food." "Not the diamonds." " And I have the foodstuff with me." " lf you've been sired by a man, if you're so sure of your strength, then let go of these poor people." "The contest is between the two of us." "I'll keep the diamonds there, may the fittest snatch them!" "I don't fight with infants. I've trampled many like you under my feet." "What is going to happen to us now?" "The right opportunity for Micky to eliminate both of them!" "Organize the transport and mobilize our forces." "We must reach Chandanpur by nightfall, at the latest" "Stop!" "You must leave immediately, Mr. Micky." "The police have got to know about your plans." " What!" " You'd better not go to Chandanpur." "No. I have to go to Chandanpur." "I can't lose the diamond-mine." " What about the police?" " l've hoodwinked them for 20 years." " They can do nothing!" " What of me if the police come here?" "The police is here!" "It pleases me to meet someone who has been dead for 20 years." "Nowthat I have you, I can also find Vikram." "He may not survive." "You can interrogate him now." " Micky...the diamond mine!" " Vikram." "Go on, Micky." "No." "He couldn't have done such a thing." "Natwar can never do this!" "You're implicating him falsely!" "So what if he was not born of me?" "He's still my own son." " He'll never cheat me." " l swear it. I'm speaking the truth!" "It's the truth Seema." "Natwar is being hounded by the police." "Natwarlal, the younger brother of Inspector Girdharilal." "Very well. I shall also come with you. I must get to see this." "Fools!" "He armed you, but he can't give you a single piece of bread." "Not even God can send you bread." "Mother used to tell me that..in utter hopelessness, desolation and ruin when a man has nowhere to turn to, he comes to You..." "Because I've never faced hopelessness and desolation." "But today, Natwar faces the dark and the desolate." "Please show me the way." "Show me some way, God, else these poor people will die of hunger." "Push the cage forward." "Run down the slope!" "I knew it, till you are here, we'll never go hungry." "Not me. lt's the handiwork of the Lord." "Thank you, Lord." "Thank You very much." "A BSFforce seems to be here." "Find out whey they are here!" "Inspector Girdharilal!" "..." "Natwar, your brother has come here too." "By tomorrow he reaches the village with the BSF." "Before he does that, both you and the diamonds will be in my clutches." " Let's relax a bit." " Till he is here, there's no danger." "Look!" "Over there!" "It's a ruse from Vikram!" "Stop!" "It's a ploy." "Stop!" "It's a ploy!" "Stop!" "Don't go down there!" "You're nothing, Natwar." "You're nothing before me." "Before the BSFarrive, grab each and every one of the people." "And bring me the diamonds." "The whole village is empty." "Where have the people gone?" "You don't know how dangerous Vikram can be." "I think this may be one of his ploys." "Let's see..." "Have the forests combed." "Take a platoon into the terai." "But what about Natwar?" "No!" "Don't beat him!" "Stop!" "Dogs!" "Hoodlums!" "Let him go!" "The BSFis combing the forests and may soon reach us." "They'll be taken care of too." "No one can nab Vikram." "You've been looking for me, haven't you?" "So I've brought you here." "And Girdharilal, your brother Natwar is here too." "Where is Natwar?" "Nothing's going to happen to you." "You're going to be alright." "Shanno will take you out of here." "I'll take you out of here alive." "I'll put the world on fire, if anything happens to you." "Yes." "This is enough." "Mine the diamond quarry" "The BSFis slowly coming towards us." "This work must be done quickly!" "ln every corner." "The BSFwon't make it here." "Captain...you're people are coming... this way." "And I don't want them to get here." "Call your people on the wireless." "And tell them you checked everything." "Everything is fine." "So you can escape quickly?" "I'm not that stupid!" "You're not that stupid..." "That's why I'm telling you." "Because army people to save one life.." "they won't lose hundreds of others." "And we're talking about hundreds.. of people." "And if you don't listen to me.." "l'll shoot you all." "You won't do that!" "It's too bad Captain.." "I have to do this..and I will start.. right here." "Don't move forward." "Veeru, go see if Captain's people.. are doing as he says." "Don't go towards Chandanpur!" "All is fine here." "Should I stop them from going?" "OK sir." "No one will go towards the border!" "No one will go!" "Vikram...the BSFhas gone the other way." "Gardari...you've come so far.." "go and meet your brother." "Veeru..take him to meet his brother." "Say only what I told you to say." "To him.." "No!" "I won't kill you this easy!" "Your an army person...a man right?" "I'll kill you like a man!" "Don't come in. I'll kill you!" "Don't come any closer." "What has happened to you, my son?" "I've sinned all my life, Mother." "I'm trying to atone for my sins." "Tell me Mother, will I be able to cleanse my soul?" "The 20-year old story is coming to an end, Girdharilal." "No one can challenge Vikram's power or ingenuity." "Neither on earth, nor in Heaven." "Take for instance, your brother." "The fool came to kill Vikram." "Now he has also brought you to your death!" " What about us, Mr. Vikram?" " What can I do?" "I don't need you people any more. I've got what I wanted." "And I destroy those I don't want." "You cheat!" "You're about to die, Natwar." "Were you destined to live, I'd have said, "See you, Natwar"." "We won't meet anymore." "We're going to die." "But you won't live either." "He died like a man!" "This won't stop till you are alive." "If you want to stop this, you'll have to fly." "Fly, Natwar." "We must stop him, else he will kill him and turn a murderer!" "I'm a man of my word, Vikram." "You may even have turned against your friends." "But I keep my word with my enemies too!" "Here are the diamonds." "And out there is the border." "Pick it up and go through, if you have courage enough." "Do you remember this medal?" "This was awarded in recognition of my brother's honesty." "You've never been able to buy him out." "And your torture couldn't ever sway him away from his honesty." "His wife lost her child." "You've destroyed their home." "But you haven't been able to destroy their honesty and integrity." "Natwar bore the scars through his childhood innocence and honesty were burnt in the fire of crime...!" "There was only one goal left in his life." "Let go!" "Natwar!" "He is a criminal." "The Law will punish him." "No!" "Not the law!" "His crimes have hurt us!" "Hurt you!" "Hurt Mother!" "If the law punishes him, how will the fires that have been raging in my heart ever since childhood be quenched?" "Watch it, everyone!" "Not a single step forward!" "With the death of Vikram, ends the story of Natwar." "But what happened to the tiger, Daddy?" "Didn't we see it in the zoo, the other day?" "That tiger!" "But it was sitting quietly." "You were telling me that everyone is scared of him!" "He is also living an honest life like Natwarlal these days." "But, what happened to Shanno?" "The one who was taking her buffaloes in the airplane?" "You're sitting here still!" "Haven't you to get ready!" "Daddy was telling me the story of Shanno." "I was just praising your good standards." "Don't lie!" "You crib behind my back!" "And speak of my standard!" "I've stopped lying." "May your face be spited if I lie!" "Have you started quarreling again?" "You're always harassing her!" " Mother, he's..." " What!" "I was only praising her." "I was speaking of how modern she was, even in the good old days." "People can't grow crops on soil and she was already thinking of growing crops in airplanes." "Just think of it." "Rice grains would be that big!" "Sugarcane as thick as that!" "Shut up, Natwar!" "Else I'll slap you." "And who are you to beat him up, as long as I'm alive?" "I'm very happy that you've come away from crime." "You have been born again." "Now, what do you intend to do?" "I was thinking in terms of starting a business." " Again!" " Yes. I'll earn four price." "I'll pay my taxes with two and give two to my mother." "I'd give Shanno two...oh no!" "She'll steal from me anyway." "You'll earn four and spend six!" "Where's the two going to come from?" "Do you want to start on your old ways again?" "Old ways?" "Which "old ways" ?" "Don't tell her anything!" "Or she'll be after me for the rest of my life!" "I was asking you of the "old ways" !" "And what were you exporting?" "I'd export what I'd import." " What do you mean?" " l'll explain." "If you bore me, I'll have you exported to your place." "And when I want to, I'll import you back."
