" What does man love the most?" " Wealth." " No." " Fame." " No." " Himself." " No." " What else?" "His progeny." "Man can do just about anything for the love of a child." "Man can go to any extent for the sake of his son." "Lord Shiva seems to be pleased with you, Shamsher Singh." "Your son has become an inspector of Police." "And your son's wife is going to bear a beautiful child very soon." "It's truly a result of your good deeds  the fruits of your labours." "You have moulded us out of clay, O'Lord." "And we are your servants." "You are the Lord who presides over our fate." " Hey there, Mr.Gurbax..." " What's it now?" "I'm about to become a grandfather." "A grandpa!" " Oh yes. I know that." " And, my son is an inspector!" " l know." " Wonder what my grandson will make." "It happens as God wishes it to." "It's all fated." "Fate is nothing. lt's all the result of one's work." " lt's all fated, my dear." " Just hard work and planning." " Foresight is it!" " Fate it is." " Foresight." " Fate." "Foresight!" "Fate!" "Why mustn't you take care of your son's father too?" "The son is due in 3 months. I have to wear shirts-sans-buttons, already!" "You should get used to the domestic chores too." " He'll be a Lord in this house." " ls that so?" " Oh, I'm undone." "Mr.lnspector!" " What's up?" " Jagavar kidnapped my daughter." " How long are we to tolerate this?" " Has Jagavar Chowdhary returned?" " He uses this village as a base..." "... to run his rackets." " That's true, Sir." " Where can I find him?" " ln the White House." "These foreigners want to buy the gold and the cocaine." " They also have a liking for women." " The exchange?" "Exchange?" "..." "I see, the price." " They're likely to pay hefty sums." " Sell them off." "No!" "If anyone moves an inch, the next bullet hits Jagavar Chowdhary." " Who is that?" " The new lnspector." "Go on... you can escape using the rear passage." "I'm arresting you, Jagavar, on the charge of abducting the girls." "The fresh blood in your veins boils." "And you're justified too, Inspector." "My foolish lieutenants haven't fed you." "Jail rations are going to be your lot." "And, I'm Inspector Pratap Singh." "He seems to have misunderstood me." "Present the "feed"." "Don't pick it up." "Don't take on Jagavar, Inspector." "The Police Station is 50 miles from here." "Make sure you run all the way." "And tell them not to even dare  cross Jagavar's path." "Never!" "What a wondrous instrument, the binoculars!" "Things so far away  seem to have come so close." "That's just why I've bought binoculars for my son." "Whenever he sees thieves running, he can use binoculars  to spot them from afar." "Then, he can go gunning for them." "Four people!" "Chasing a poor fellow." "Take a look." "Over there." "Gurbax!" "He's my son, Pratap!" "Let's return." "What's happened?" "Who were those people?" "No, my Son!" "You're all of my life." "A father has brought his son's corpse to your police station." "He was your inspector." "And you want to lodge the papers first!" "And, in the meantime, those dogs will have escaped!" "But, without the paperwork, our hands are tied." "Cut off such useless hands, then!" "It's your hands which are tied." "My hands aren't tied." "I'll see the end of it." "I'll see it to the end." "No!" "Shamsher!" "Don't!" "Please forgive me." "Forgive me!" "Please!" "No!" "Not me!" "In the name of Lord Shiva." "May Lord Shiva spare you." "Tell me, who is your boss?" "Who killed my son?" "Tell me." "All right!" "I'll tell you!" "Shamsher Singh!" "Surrender to the Police." "Or else..." "Father!" "Everything is finished for me!" "Hush!" "Quiet, my child." "Gurbax!" "Gurbax!" " l'm finished!" " What's the matter?" " Come with me." " Why?" "What's happened?" " Look at that." " Goodness." "Call the midwife." "Hurry!" "Everything'll be all right." "Don't you worry." " Everything has gone so wrong!" "The swine!" "They killed my son!" "They killed my young son!" "They got together and killed him!" "They have made a widow out of my young daughter-in-law." "The poor girl!" "Look at her!" "Take heart." "And have faith in God." " No!" " Everything'll be all right." "His is the doing." "God is responsible for this misery." "It's a son, Gurbax." "This is not the time for weeping." "The infant is very weak." "It's only 7 months old." "Take him to a hospital immediately." "Else, he might not survive." "Come on." "You must live." "You won't leave me alone, my love." "Everyone has cheated me." "But you won't cheat me, will you?" "You shall live." " My child is all right, isn't he?" " He isn't well. lt's up to God." "The will of God, I know." "But, I shall not let His will be done." "I shall not let Thy will be done." " Which ward is Shambhu Nath in?" " ln number 13." "Follow me." " How did the accident take place?" " Hit by a truck." "How is he doing now?" "Your son is doing well." "You can take him home." "Where are you off to?" "Pay up the charges in the first place." " Pay what?" " The hospital fees." " How much for the fees?" " How much is it, Sister?" " 886 Rupees." " Eight hundred and eighty-six." " Where'd I get 886 Rupees from?" " How'd you take this child away..." "... without paying up?" " Strange words!" "Can't I have..." "... my child unless I pay up?" "!" " That's right." "Out of my way!" "It's my child!" "He's my blood!" "My child!" " He says that I can't have him!" " You aren't doing the right thing." "Am I committing a crime?" "Will you snatch away a poor man's child  just because he can't pay your bills?" "is that justice?" " Strange!" " Now look here..." "Don't you dare touch my child!" " Will you please listen to me?" " Excuse me Doctor; he's calling you." "Bring him along." "Come in. I've been watching this drama for sometime now." " Strange fellow." "And he insists..." " Let him have his child." " How much is the bill?" " 886 Rupees, Sir." "Here you are." "Put the balance on my account." "You may leave." "Do you wish to thank me?" "I accept your thanks." " Where are you taking the infant?" " l don't quite know, where." "You must take good care of the infant." "And good care is costly." "Do you have money?" "Do you have money?" "Useless." "Those are useless attributes." "Those might be useful for me." "My name is Sir Mizia." "I'm a millionaire from Bombay." "And naturally, I have some shady businesses too." "Will you do something for me?" "For the favour you have done me, I can give my life if you want it." "I have a bullet in my leg." "But it wasn't an enemy who shot me." "My nephews... they shot me." "They're sitting in a mansion, 20 miles away, waiting for me to die." "To one corner of the mansion is a dry well." "Under the fifth stone inside the well, lies a box belonging to me." "That's what you must fetch for me." "This is a photograph of the mansion." "Here's what you may need for protection." "Had your child not been with me, you would've run away with the box." "886 Rupees that you had given me yesterday  is more valuable than all those gems and diamonds." "Well said." "Someday, you'll become a great man." "What shall I ever make, Sir?" "I'm an uneducated villager." "What can I make?" "Even uneducated villagers had become Kings in their times." "Millions of educated people become clerks." "And, they die as clerks too." "If you want to make it big in life, you must remember something, friend." "Be the maker of your own fate." "Carve out a future for yourself." "God, Religion, Honesty and Fate are coinage for fools." "Forget it all." "Start a new life from today." "For this child, you are the God." "Keep this... the first gift in a new life..." "From me." "Come in tomorrow morning and see me." ""Be the maker of your own fate"" ""Carve out a future for yourself"" ""You are!" "You are!" "You are!"" "Yes!" "I am!" "I am God!" "Till a day ago, you were God." "Not today." "Not now." "Not anymore." "You've destroyed my life. I swear by the very breath that this  innocent infant breathes..." "You shall not be the maker of his fate." "I shall be the maker of his fate." "I shall be his God." "For the sake of wealth, Shamsher Singh entered the portals of crime." "He toiled day and night, to win the confidence of his Master, Sir Mizia." "And, before he died, Sir Mizia gave everything to  Shamsher Singh..." "his wealth and his power." "He carried the orphaned child with him into the world of crime." "And, he was it's father as well as it's mother..." "And, one day..." "We shall get to know of the person who controls the smuggling network  if we can apprehend car # GDR 1537." "Follow the car." " My child!" "Kunal!" " Why do you drive carelessly?" "You're lucky that I was praying." "Else, he would've be dead by now." "How so, my good man?" "I've taken pains enough  to snatch him back from God." "Hush, child." " Does it have a mother?" " lt has no one else but me." "Give me the child..." "Poor Devil..." "You can't even hold a child." "There!" "See how he fell silent?" "He has fallen silent indeed." "Thank you very much." "You can thank me later." "As of now, you should tend to your wounds." "Come with me to my shanty." "It's right over there." "My modest home shows off my regal status!" "I enjoy every bit of nature's bounties." "You haven't told me what your name is." "Abu... people call me "Abu Baba"." " What is your calling?" " Nowadays, all I do is to pray." " And what did you do before "now"?" " l used to be a constable." "And a strict one I was." "The whole town knew about the constable." "Have you heard of "Shaka", the hooligan?" "He was a hefty sort." "He had beaten up a kid badly." "The victim's eye had popped out." "And, what else could there have been, but my stick on Shaka's head!" "The blow must've been a strong one, for it felled Shaka dead." "The government threw me out of the job..." "Well, so what?" "But I just can't bear to see torture." "And I hate dishonest people." "Are you single, Abu?" "Or do you have children?" "Oh yes. I was married." "And I, had a child too." "The wife died in childbirth." "And, my child was washed away in a flood." "Such was the wish of God." "The only one I had lived for, was taken away." "I was praying for the souls of my departed wife and child  when the Lord put this beautiful child into my hands." "Sit down, Mister." "Please do not bother." "Oh no!" "He has wet his pants." "Now don't cry." "Good boy." "Did anyone hit you?" "Who hit you, dear?" "Do you see that?" "He has quietened." "Come to think of it, Sir, you haven't said anything about yourself." "Tell you what..." "your story and mine are similar." "If you don't mind it, may I tell you something...?" "I have everything... money..." "wealth... everything." "But, I have no one to take care of this child. lf only an honest man  like you could accept the responsibility of this child  I shall consider it my good fortune." "That is but what Allah has commanded me to do." "The Lord's wish shall be fulfilled if I take care of this child." "From this day onwards, Abu Baba  you are a Father to this child." "And, you are a Mother to him too." "These gentlemen, who by light of the day appear to be businessmen  are smugglers and hoarders;" "they run illicit business under  cover of darkness." "They cheat the government." "The MlZlA group!" "I can give you all the names and I can describe their network to you." " What about a 10oº% commission?" " Done." "Danny is my son-in-law." "He can never do such a thing!" "Danny has gone over to the Police, Mr.Chiang." "Please forgive him, Sir." "I have only one daughter." "She will be widowed." "Please consider her case, Sir." "Relationship and sentiments are not points for consideration, Mr.Chiang." "You know well that our businesses are illegitimate." "And persons who pose a threat to us, must be executed  at the earliest." "Else, they might destroy us." "I beg for the life of my son-in-law." "What principle of business provokes you to suggest that  the lives of many be put at stake for the sake of one?" "According to the principles of the MlZlA Group,  Danny must be executed within 24 hours." "You're late for school, Master Kunal Hurry up." "Drink your milk." "No!" "I won't go to school!" "I won't!" " Won't you go to school?" " No!" "I won't!" " You must go to school." " No!" "I won't go to school." " l won't go to school!" " Oh dear!" "I heard that you'd fallen down and hurt yourself." " l won't go to school, Grandpa." " Why won't you?" "Good boys always go to school." "You should also go to school." " l want a hundred rupees for that." " Not at all!" "He won't give you a penny." "This imp is going wayward!" "Get down." "At once!" "And, go to school!" "Now, you've angered him." "If I give you a hundred rupees, he will be very angry." "If he gets angry, there'll be trouble." "You'll get in trouble and I'll get in trouble too." "Off to school, now." "Like a good boy." "Why not give him another two hundred?" "That'd pay his way to a cabaret." " Oh, Abu Baba..." " You aren't cheating Abu Baba, Sir." "You're cheating yourself." "One of these days, you and I are going to have a fight over this." "No." "Please don't fight over this." "I had only one son." "And he's no more." "This child is the only heir I have." "And sometimes, I am weak to a fault." "But, why are you helping him to inculcate a weakness?" "If this goes on, the mansion that you have built so painstakingly,  will be no more than a mound of clay in his hands." "Love and affection for a child I can concede to." " But that doesn't mean..." " Your lecture has been heard  50 times over." "And it's likely to be repeated 500 times more!" " His 5th birthday is..." " The day after tomorrow. I know it." " The arrangements..." " Have been done!" "I'm the truck-driver." "My truck has been nabbed." "The cops are chasing me." "I have a wife and kids, Sir." "They're coming!" "Please save me, Sir!" "Please save me, Sir!" "Our truck was apprehended." "And, the driver has been jailed for 14 years." "The driver has proven his loyalty by not revealing our identities." "We should pay his wife and child a monthly stipend of 1500 Rupees." "No, Parvati." "You don't know them." "My silence is a must if I am to save your lives, you and my daughter." "I shall beg of them to spare my husband's life." "Kunal my boy!" "Happy birthday to you." " May you live a 1000 years." " At the rate of 50,000 days a year!" "Old hat and not funny enough." "Let's have something new, Uncle." "Double congratulations on Kunal's birthday." "Why "double"?" "A new company bearing Kunal's name has been floated!" "Kunal Chemical Industries." "What are you going on stirring the broth for so long?" "Just increase the flame on the burner..." "Yes." "Some more." "Sacrilege!" "Get out of here!" "Come on, my boy..." "Take a sip of sherbet." " lt's whisky!" " So what if it's whisky?" "!" "You've a tiger cub." "No less." "Go on." "Drink it." " Do you remember the driver who was jailed?" " Yes." "His wife is waiting at the gates." "She wants to speak to you." "Please ask KK to meet the woman and take care of what she wants." " Address her with respect." " Very well, Sir." "For the sake of my child, please have my husband released!" "But, you are receiving a monthly compensation, aren't you?" "Please don't weigh my husband's company with money's worth." "It's the Boss' grandson's birthday." "Talk too much and  I'll make mincemeat out of you." "Throw her out, watchman." "Oh yes!" "Throw me out!" "But, be warned!" "I won't let you live in peace." "I won't spare you and your boss." " Waiter." " Yes, Sir?" " Come here..." "Some more whisky." " No more, please." "If the Boss sees me, he'll skin me alive." " l'm a poor man, Sir." " lf you're a poor man  you should rather walk the streets and beg for a living." "Whisky!" "Have you taken alcohol?" "Yes." "Have you consumed alcohol?" "Yes. I've drunk." "I'm sad today, Sir." "Kunal was drunk with heady spirits and the power of wealth." "The slap on the face of the servant is a slap on my face." " Had I not told you?" " You were right." "The child spoilt by my love and wealth can only go astray." "Gold can't be crafted into jewellery unless it has been melted in fire." "A foot planted firmly on soil can help one maintain a balance." "You're right." "And as I see it, there's only one way out now." "You must take Kunal away from me." "... away from my wealth." "You must educate him and inculcate a sense of values in him." "You must teach him what is right and what is wrong." "And bring him back only after he has become a complete person." "Can you live without Kunal?" "Yes, I shall live on." "For he goes out of sight." "Not out of my heart." "For the sake of my son, I shall endure this alienation." "Very well." "From this day onwards, Kunal is Abu's son.A poor man's son." "I shall bring him up as my own." "I shall instil in him the sense of honesty, truth and courage." "After he has become a complete man, I shall bring him into this house." "So promises an honest and upright Muslin." "I pray that God lets me live till I have accomplished my objective." " What is it?" " l won't go to school." " Why?" " l want to go back to Bombay." "I want to go to Grandpa." "I don't like it here." "Come here." "Let me tell you the real story." "You aren't Grandpa's grandson." "And he isn't your Grandpa." "He doesn't have a child of his own." "Where'd he find a grandson?" "You're my son." "That's the truth of it." "He sent his grandson away for the sake of his son." "While his grandson was being reared into a man of principles,  Shamsher Singh went on unscrupulously to amass wealth." "On the other hand..." " Will you forsake honest labour?" " Never." " Will you fear the dishonest?" " Never!" "Get up, then." "Yes, Sir." "I'm Jagavar Chowdhary." "I have been trying for long to meet you." "And finally, I have." "If you have, then you may sit down." "Thank you." "I have tried to contact you several times over the phone." "But..." " Jagavar Chowdhary... aren't you?" " Yes. I am." " Are you KK's friend?" " Yes." "He has been telling me about you." "I understand that you want to  buy a ship belonging to the Kunal Shipping Corporation." "Yes." "At any price. lt'd make a significant impact on my business." "It'd make a significant impact on my heart to sell it." "How so?" "I can't bear to part with anything that's attached to  the name Kunal..." "that's my grandson's name." "And, I always buy whatever I've set my mind on." "Those that fly by air are likely to be jolted." " You haven't answered my question." " You see, Mr.Chowdhary... I'm going to see my grandson after many years." "And, I'm in a good mood." "I'd request you not to spoil my mood." " Where does your grandson live?" " ln my heart." "And your son?" "Strong turbulence, Mr.Chowdhary. I think it'd be better  if you went back to your seat and safety belt." "All for the better." " Did it work out?" " For the time-being,  you must go into hiding outside India." "I'll take care of the rest." "Nice meeting you." " Thank you." " See you." " Which way are you headed?" " 30 miles from here." "I'm headed the same way." "Why don't we travel together?" "I'd be fortunate to spend some more time with you." " Please come with me." " ls the red car yours?" " Consider it your own, Sir." " Let's proceed." "Come on." "Take a look at this!" ""Seven of a family murdered in Pune"" ""Murderers still at large"" "I had masterminded it." "This news about this death of a prominent smuggler in a car crash..." "And you must've masterminded that too." " You're quick on the uptake." " l try to." " l'd like you for a friend." " What if I were an enemy?" "In that case, you'd be sitting in your car... the one which is  following us... and I'd be sitting here, as I am... and  a decision regarding your life would've taken a moment ago." "How would that have been?" "I would've pressed this button..." "like that." "Does that make you laugh?" "Yes." "That wasn't my car." "You've bombed a wrong car." " What?" "!" " That's true." "You've blown up an innocent." "My car is behind us now." "Say what Mr.Chowdhary... why don't we stop by the road  for a drink of coconut water?" "It'd cool us and freshen our minds." "Please stop beside the fellow selling green coconuts." "Your death was lurking nearby too." "You've just escaped certain death." " Meaning?" " Meaning that I've granted you  a chance to live, despite that cheap trick you pulled." "That reeks of antagonism, Mr.Sobhraj." "Not antagonism." "That's the fragrance of my friendship." "I've dragged you out of the confines of your red car  in which you would've been sitting, right now  next to my walking stick in which a fuse lies primed." "I would've pressed a small button in here and you'd go up in smoke." " How so?" " Like that." "If you want to make it big, you mustn't make small mistakes." "Whoever advised you to step upon a sleeping snake?" "You're an old friend." "You should've asked me. I would've introduced you." " He's the capo di tutti capi." " l know him from times..." "... when he was a nobody." " Really?" "Tell us." "Never mind." "Don't mind my saying so." "But friendship and business are different." "As the saying goes, you mustn't try to step into shoes too big for you." "You're a small-time smuggler from Goa." "We of the MlZlA, wear shoes several times larger than yours." "Anyway, I'll introduce you..." "I'll take you to his grandson's reception." "Look at these..." "look at these prizes I have won at school." "That's for honesty and helping nab the cheaters." "Who are you?" "Don't you recognise him?" "Try and remember..." "look at him closely." "Don't you recognise him?" "..." "He's your grandpa." " Grandpa?" " Yes." "You're his grandson." "And you...?" "!" "You aren't my son." "No!" "No!" "Abu Baba!" "I don't want to go away with anyone!" " You're everything for me!" " My son!" "I want to stay with you, Abu Baba." "Don't cry, Son." "I'm merely a tutor who has taught you truth, honesty and sacrifice." "Your grandpa has sacrificed 14 long years for your sake." "But, I remember not a day in these 14 years when he failed  to ask me about you." "He has held you close to his heart." "Embrace him and you will hear your name in his heart." "Go to him, Son." "In sending me away with Abu Baba, you've been God-like." "What's the matter?" " Do you see that fat fellow sitting there?" " Yes." "He's my friend from times when I used to be a poor man." "Gurbax!" "It's him!" " You!" " And you!" "You're turned out like a gentleman!" " Of course!" "But don't ask "how"!" "How have you been, Gurbax?" "After you left, I lost my job." "And no one would  give me his daughter to me in marriage." "So,I've remained a bachelor." "I bought up a few trucks." "And the boys over there work in my business." " What about you?" " l can't believe my eyes!" "Come with me." "I must show you something." " Do you recognise him?" " Who is he?" "Remember him?" "He's the one I warned by the fire of your engine after he was born." " ls he Pratap's son?" " Yes." " Your grandson?" "!" " Yes!" "What are you staring at?" "Touch his feet." "May you live long!" "Go on everybody!" "Go and have a drink." "May you live long!" "God is merciful!" "He's grown up so!" "Your grandpa and I used to be bosom pals through thick and thin." "Witness the miracle of God!" "May you live long!" " You've worked a miracle, Shamsher!" " l haven't worked any miracles." "It's all the handiwork of his tutor, Abu Baba." "I share no more than the bloodlines with my grandson." "The friendship between you belies the distinctions of class and wealth." "Oh yes!" "Come to Bombay with me." "No!" "I must be going elsewhere just now. I'll see you later." "We're throwing a party to welcome my grandson." "Catch me missing a party like that!" "I'll come." "Surely." "I'll come all decked up for the occasion." "And I'll carry my booze too." "We'll celebrate it." "We will!" "You seem to be doing well at business, Shamsher." "Not Shamsher. I'm Sobhraj." "That's fine." "But tell me..." "how have you made it so rich?" "I'll explain everything later." "But, just now  I must take care of the guests who are attending the party." "I don't like all this, Abu Baba." "You must accept your God-gifted status happily." "These people look like fakes." "You mustn't say things like that." "And you must greet everyone properly." "You must do as I have told you." "Don't you bring me to shame." "Go on, now." " Come over here, Kunal." " Yes, Grandpa?" "Meet Mr.Sharma. He's the General Manager in our company." "All the best, Mr.Kunal. And it seems that it has been  your Grandpa who has designed your destiny." "Not God." " Do you hear that Gurbax?" " That's fine." "But...!" "How did you make it so rich?" "!" " Step aside. I'll tell you." " Why?" "What's "aside"?" "There's a party going on in here." "Shut up!" "You'll ruin my reputation." " Shut up!" " How did you make it so rich?" "He's my friend KK Singh." "He's also my partner." " Do you recognise him?" " You've grown up now." "But I still remember the pranks you used to pull as a child." "The Commissioner, Mr.Roy." "He's Shamsher Singh's grandson." "This is Mr.Jagavar Chowdhary." "He owes the Jaycee Company." "Your grandson has hands of steel, Mr.Sobhraj." "His hand is sweating, Grandpa." "You must've touched a nerve, my boy." "Take this." "Wipe the sweat." "Tell me... how did my friend strike it rich?" "Simple. lt's hard work and God overhead." "I know his "God" well." "That couldn't be!" "Hey!" "What's going on?" "!" "You dance very well, Durga." "Do you take me for a dancing girl?" "Take care of your goons, Peter." "Else, I'll make mincemeat of them." "They wanted me to dance for the festival." "That's why I'm dancing." "I'm your cousin." "And I've asked you not to waste yourself here." "Who can appreciate your art in these slums?" "Which is why I want you to join my band." "You can sing and dance at good hotels." "Pervert!" "Do you want your cousin to dance at hotels?" " lt pays well, too." " Do you take me for a courtesan?" "You're no less" "Bloody bastards!" "What do you take Durga for?" "Men fight with fists." "Not knives." "Why do you touch my men?" "Fight me if you can." "If you're your father's son, hold your ground." "I'll show you!" "I will!" "I don't fight the old, the weak and the drunk." "I'll come here at 1 1 in the morning." "Tomorrow." "You can tell your musclemen that." "The black sun that shines over the dark world of crime." "Are you the chairman of the MlZlA gang?" "Yes. I'm the chairman." " Don't tell it to the boy." " Oh no!" "You don't know what Kunal is made of." "I love you, Kunal." "He has taken after his father." "Mother!" "You must ask Peter to desist." "Else, he's going to get bashed up badly someday." "He created a scene today in a drunken stupor." "What am I to do with him?" "It would've been manageable  had my sister been alive." "Ever since he was a kid  he has been hooked to his dream of becoming an Englishman someday." "Soldiers!" "Do you know why the English made drums?" "So that the drumbeat could put a man's blood on boil... and erupt." "Prepare my bloodies!" "For a sacrifice!" "It's 1 1 o'clock." "And he isn't here yet." "Death to anyone who challenges John." "He won't come by." "What's that?" "!" "A motorcycle?" "!" "Or, as it a flying carpet?" "!" "Abu Baba asks me not to fight without reason." "And once I have reason enough, I mustn't back out." "I'm standing before you, Peter John D'Costa." "I won't confront you, because I'm an Englishman from London." "I don't fight..." "I get people to." "I get things done, and people bashed." "Why are you ganging up on him?" "One man at a time!" "He'll bash up everyone of you!" " See how he's bashed up." " That's how!" "Fools!" "The trucker!" "You're ganging up on my boy!" "You Englishman!" "Do you know who he is?" "A rich man's son who tries to challenge poor people." "He's no "rich-man's-son"." "He's my friend's son." "Just like anyone of you or me." " One of us... is he?" " Yes." "He's broadhearted too." "He loves poor people." "Which is why he leaves, ... his palatial home to come to you." "And the fools that you are!" "Must you resort to hooliganism on a festival day?" " They're my children." " Oh yes!" "Go on." "Apologise to him." "Why haven't you attended our festival this time?" "And we're missing your favourite song too." " My song?" " The one you had sung the last time." "How about it, Durga?" "What brings you here, alone?" "I've come here to meet you." "And I've come here to meet you too." "But... over here?" "!" "Whom are you scared of?" " l'm scared of myself." "Why?" " l don't know." "But, I know." " What?" "That we are attracted to each other." "is that something to laugh at?" "I like the girl in this photograph." "Do you like her?" "She looks too westernised." "I'd like a simple Hindustani bride for Kunal." "Take a look at this." "Such a big house!" "Whose house is it?" "Sit here. I'll be back soon." "So many bananas!" " May I eat some?" " Go on." "It's fun!" "She looks too frail." " Grandpa!" "We're trying to choose a bride for you." "Take a look." "And choose." "But..." "I've already chosen a girl for myself, Grandpa." "She's sitting in the hall downstairs." "Got you scared!" " Who are you?" " Your mother!" "Goodness!" "Mother!" "And you've smashed the crockery!" "Why are you weeping?" "The house hasn't crashed yet." "I'll clean it up for you." "He's fallen down too!" "Now...!" "What kind of a prank is this?" "What's going on?" "Rich boys marrying poor girls would solve all problems." "You said it!" "Listen to me!" "Kunal!" "Listen to me!" "Who was that?" "You're..." "Durga." "Aren't you?" " Who are you?" " l'm called Abu Baba." " You mean..." "Kunal's Abu Baba?" "!" " Yes." "Kunal's Abu Baba." "Please forgive me for not being able to recognise you." " But I did." "At first sight." " How did you do that?" "Slipping on a banana peel isn't easily forgotten." "Please take some of the offerings I made to Lord Shiva." "You're a nice girl, my child." "Which is why I've decided to tell you something." " What?" " This fellow Kunal  is making a fool out of you." "He isn't a good boy." "What a shame!" "And he respects you as his own father!" "He's always singing your praise." "And you're trying to malign him!" "Even the Devil couldn't speak ill of Kunal." "is that the shape of things?" "!" "In which case, I must tell you everything clearly." "The Boss has been generous towards us..." "Kunal and myself." "I've been a servant in that household for many years." " And, Kunal is my son." " What?" "!" " Yes." "And we're poor people." " Nice to hear that!" "Kunal is just one of us!" "I knew it!" "Kunal isn't rich." "And, the rich aren't as broadminded as Kunal is." "But, there's a problem." "Kunal is after the Boss' money." "Not again!" "I know Kunal more than you do!" "If he craved after wealth, he wouldn't have  fallen for a poor slum-dweller like me." "Would he?" " Are you sure that he loves you?" " Yes." " What about you?" " l love him more than my life!" "is that so?" "In that case, let me have the offerings." "Why?" "So that I can tell Kunal that I approve of the match." "Durga has passed the test." "Who is this girl?" "She's a rotten girl living in a rotten slum." "She's our old truck-driver, Ganpat's daughter." " Ganpat?" " Yes." "He was jailed some 13 or 14 years ago." "I understand your agony, Sir." "It's all because Kunal is so young." " lsn't that so?" " That's true, Daddy." "So he knows all the rotten girls!" "Bloody hood!" "If you want me to, I can eliminate her." "No." "Please have her mother called in. I'll speak to her myself." "Understood, Sir." "Durga won't meet your grandson ever again." "She's born of your employee, Ganpat." "She isn't fit to marry into this family." "I'll take her away to Goa immediately." "As an elder brother to a sister, I'd like to help you." "Please accept this money. lt'll help you find a suitable boy for her." "And, you can also buy a good house for yourself." "You have addressed me as a sister." "You are wealthy and you're respected." "But, all I have is pride." "Please don't try to buy my self-respect." "Thank you very much for the offer." "I admire your self-respect." "But, there are some things that just cannot happen." "A ship leaves for Goa tomorrow." "I'll provide an escort." "Thank you very much, Sir." "Give her the money as soon as she reaches Goa." " But, he loves me!" " Stop daydreaming, Durga." "Come to terms with the reality of your sordid life." "I won't leave for Goa before I've met Kunal." "Why have you separated Durga and Kunal?" "I have taken the step after due consideration." "I have cared for Kunal for 1 7 years. I know him inside out." "The fire that you have stoked will be your undoing someday." "You mustn't let that happen." "Please listen to me." "Please don't take Durga away from Kunal." "How is she to blame?" "is it because she is poor?" "I do not object to her poverty." "I have been a poor man myself." "After having cared for the child for 1 7 years, I can't let him..." "... be tainted by a wayward girl." " No, Sir." "She isn't a wayward girl." "She is wayward. lt's just that you don't know about it." "Besides, you might've forgotten the status of this family." "In such families the lower classes aren't allowed entry." "It hurts me to hear you speak so, Sir." "I realise that you have merely become rich." "No more than that!" "Your coffers are large." "But you are narrow-minded." "You are exceeding your limits, Abu Baba." "And what you speak of is below your dignity." "Hold it!" "Hold your tongue." "Conceded that you have brought up Kunal." "Forget not Abu Baba, that Kunal is my grandson." "He carries my bloodline." "And I reserve the right to decide about his life." "What about me?" "Have I no right over Kunal?" "Have my rights been terminated?" "And am I no more related to your grandson?" "Old people retire from jobs." "You've retired me out of a relationship!" "Hear me out!" "Why have you shut the door like a coward?" "Well, if you can't  look into my eyes, you can still hear me out." "I had forgotten, like a fool, that a servant is but a hired hand." "And that apart, there remains no further relationship." "You had this fool tied to you in chains of love." "And today, you've chosen to break the bond." "You've showed up as you are, in reality." "Will you retire me from my service?" "I retire you from your status as my employer." "I shall never set my foot in this house." "Never!" "Listen to something more before I leave." "You have broken my heart." "But, I won't let you  break the heart of that innocent child." "I won't let you destroy the home that he plans to build." "Strange!" "You can't find a person, like Abu Baba!" "We've been searching." "But we can't find him." "What are we to do now?" "My foot!" "You'll find him right now praying at a mosque in the graveyard." " Very well, Sir." " And make sure that you tell him  that, if he can act stubborn, then others can be stubborn too." " Very well, Sir." " Make sure you tell him that." "Listen!" "..." "All right..." "never mind." "Don't tell him anything." "Well, you can tell him whatever I said." "Durga and her mother have left their house forever." " Forever?" "!" " Yes." " Where have they gone to?" " They've returned to their village." " When?" " l saw them off an hour ago  on a ship bound for Goa." "Durga was weeping inconsolably." "Some people were shouting at her, and were forcing her into the ship." " Who were they?" " Some ruffians." "Ruffians?" "..." "On a ship to Goa?" "The boss has called you in." " Why?" "What's up?" " lt's something urgent." " l'll go in with you." " Not necessary." "Please stay here." "We'll be back soon..." "Please follow me." "Stop!" "You can't go in there." "Let go!" "Let me go in!" "My child!" "Let go!" "You?" "!" "What are you people up to?" "!" "The boss' friends are smugglers!" "No!" "My boss isn't a smuggler!" "Go outside." "Piglets!" "You dare raise your hand against my family's honour!" "Dare you try to tarnish my honour!" "I won't spare a single one of you!" "Take your mother away, Durga." "Hurry." "I'll hand these dogs over to the police." "Turn the ship around." "Head back to the city." "Hurry." "We're in a fix." "Abu Baba has locked us in the cabin." "He has gone to warn the cops." "He swore to hand us over to the police." " Abu did that?" "!" " l understand everything." "Please don't worry. I'm a good friend you can count upon." "Please don't worry." "I'll take care of everything." "If he survives, not a single one of you will remain alive." "I'm thinking of the same thing." "Still thinking, are you?" "Please take care of Kunal, O'Lord." "No!" "You can't leave me alone, Abu Baba." "Come to your senses, child!" "I swear by Abu Baba, not to spare his assassins." "Don't worry." "The operation will cure her." " How much would the operation cost?" " lt'd cost you around 3-4000 rupees." "Here's what you need for keeping your mother alive." "Keep it." ""lf you try to inform the police or anyone else, your mother dies."" ""Your lover is responsible for whatever has happened."" "Don't try to meet me ever again. lf you do, you're going to be insulted." " What's going on?" " She won't tell anything to anyone." "All I know is that Abu Baba died trying to save her from the ruffians." "It's supposed to be a gang of notorious smugglers." "We know that you are grieved by Abu Baba's death." "But, the truth is that, we didn't intend to kill him." "It's Abu Baba who is responsible." "He started shooting at all of us." "And he threatened to book all of us." "You included!" "It'd become extremely necessary to eliminate him." "We had tried to reason it out with him." "But, he wouldn't agree." " He invited his death." " We would've been dead otherwise." " True!" " He's right!" "You are the ones who killed Abu Baba." "But I'm the one who will have to pay the price." "Remember that Kunal mustn't get to know the truth about this murder." "Anyone who dares to inform him, invites my enmity." "It pains one to have his own dead." "The fun starts now." " Grandpa is scared of the grandson." " What if the grandson gets to know?" " And, who may dare do such a thing?" " l may." "Will you?" "!" "I've called up someone special for the assignment." "If you marry Kunal after enticing him, I won't object." "But, I must gain as you do." "Or else..." "Threats are unnecessary, Mr.Chowdhary." "Your work will be done." " She's a fast one." " l hope Kunal doesn't outdo her." "He's pacing about like an angry lion, looking for assassins." "May I give you a lift?" " What?" " Come." "Sit inside." "No, thank you." "I'm used to walking." "There's only one way to find what you seek." "Neelima." "Do you know the people who were on the ship to Goa?" " They are Tony and Ponchy." " Can you introduce me to them?" "There's no use of meeting these two." "You and I must plan it out together." "I'll introduce you to all of them, later." "And, some members of this gang are important personalities in this city." " What do you mean?" " lt's a powerful gang... the MlZlA." " The MlZlA gang?" " Want to know everything today?" "That's a beautiful ring." "is it a diamond?" "Maybe... my grandfather gave it to me." "Do you like it?" "You may have it." " Does it look nice?" " Yes." " Let's go in and talk." " Let us." "I don't know who the boss is." "But I know the others very well." "Oh yes!" "A hotel is going to be inaugurated this Sunday." "Some important members of the MlZlA group are expected to be there." "Will you take me there?" " Let's go inside and relax." " Where?" "In the bedroom." "I've loved once. I can't fall in love again, Neelima." "I am already in love with someone else. I want you as a friend." "I don't have anyone to whom I can speak my heart. I... I understand. I was merely putting you to a test." "I promise to be a true friend." "I'll be leaving now." " Wait... here's your diamond ring." " Why?" "I've found a true friend." "I don't need a stone." "Please take it back." "What are you up to?" "Do you know how for the sound of gunshots travels?" "I want the men behind the mannequins to hear the sound." " Who are "they"?" " Abu Baba's assassins." "The MlZlA." "1 -2-3-4" "5-6-7-8-9-10!" "Go on counting." "But the count won't be finished." " D'you know what the MlZlA is?" " How do you know who they are?" "Don't ask silly questions." "I've seen more of this world than you have." "And, am I to contemplate on the probability that my dreams are dashed?" "Are you going to start shooting at them, to cultivate their enemity?" "Explain it to him, Gurbax!" "He's a fool!" "Tell him about MlZlA." "If not for your own sake, you must consider your grandpa's aspirations." "Forget not that parents take the place of God." "And your grandfather is all that, and more, for you." "I know that my grandfather has designed my destiny." "I know that he had sired my father." "But that poor fellow, Abu Baba was like a mother to me." "Amidst his poverty, he cared for me for 1 7 long years." "He was my mother... in the true sense of the erm." "I won't spare the ones who killed my mother." "I won't spare!" "Be it even my father!" "Did you hear that?" "He's my grandson... and what did he tell me!" " KK Singh speaking." " What's the matter?" "The new hotel is being inaugurated with a disco party." "You must be there." "I've told you that I'm in no mood to attend any parties." "Mr.David from Singapore is here." "And, I've already committed to him." "I see... all right. I'll be there." "He disconnected the line..." "seemed worried." "Looks like the grandson will be the grandfather's nemesis." "And along with him, the MlZlA group will also be run down." "Wait and watch... the colours of this season." "The colours of this season!" "Who's dancing at the party tonight?" " Miss Singapuri." "Miss Gina Singapuri has run away!" "We can't do anything about it!" "I'm ruined!" "If the dance is cancelled, the bosses will shoot us dead." " Goodness!" " Oh yes!" "If it isn't Gina, let it be Rina!" "Or, Teena!" "Do something!" "Don't you worry!" "Rina, if not Gina!" "And Tina if not Rina!" "Kolhapuri be it, if not Singapuri!" " Kolhapuri?" " Clean solution!" "Durga's mother is  in the hospital." "Durga needs money." "And we need a dancer." "Didn't I tell you that I won't dance at any hotel?" "It's a matter of the prestige of his hotel." "And, it's a matter of my job." " We'll pay you as much as 5000." " Oh yes!" "We'll pay a huge sum." "What a shame!" "I won't dance half-clad." " l won't wear this dress." " lf you don't, I'll be stripped!" " l'm not concerned." " What Kolhapuri is this, Superman?" "!" "Superman wasn't made out of nothing!" "Now, pour some." "Let me make a convert out of Ms. Kolhapuri." "When you're hot-headed, try a cool drink." "Go on." "Drink it." "Go on." "Drink it up." "He's the one who is stinking." "You should think of your mother  and the operation theatre, the doctors, the darkness, the light..." " What kind of a Thums Up is this?" " Not Thums Up. lt's "Comes Up"!" "It bring out the artiste within you. ln a flash!" "is this hotel!" "The old man never came inside." "is the girl inside the room?" "Make sure you go on taking photographs." " What's the room number?" " 326." "The blossom and the spirits... they have always been together, my love." " Who is it?" " The bell boy, Sir." "Don't you seen a "DO NOT disturb" sign on the door?" "An urgent letter for you." "From one Mr.Mizia." "MlZlA?" "!" "Give it to me." "You have the right to tear him to pieces, Durga." "Beat him." "Hit him!" "Take Durga away, Neelima." "Now comes the question." "Who's the boss of the MlZlA group?" "I don't know." " You know." " No!" "You know it!" "Who's the boss of the MlZlA group which killed Abu Baba?" "Abu Baba has saved your life, Ponchy." "Sobhraj Singh!" "Did I not warn you?" "But you have done it!" "Who killed him?" "Who killed Ponchy?" "Your grandson, Kunal." "You're lying!" "What use is it losing your head?" "One of my men can show you some photographs." "Take a look at them." "The negative of this photographs is me." "What do you want?" " The exchange." "One of my men standing over there can give you some papers." "I'd like to have your signature on the papers." "It is a deed of sale. I've bought Kunal Shipping Corporation from you." "What won't parents do to save their children from the gallows?" "I like your move, Jagavar. I'll sign the papers immediately  and have them send over to you." "Your man will carry it." "Thank you." "Sounds like he's here." "Stop right there, Mr.Sobhraj." "I have brought the papers of the Kunal Shipping Corporation for you." "You've committed a grave mistake today, Sobhraj." "Your papers and your life are in my hands." "But, I haven't signed the papers yet." "I want to sign them before you." "Let him come in." "You'd said that you never sell anything that bears Kunal's name." "Jagavar takes whatever he wants." "But, you've asked for a price too paltry." "For my grandson's sake, I would've given you all I have." "All you need to do, as of now is to sign the papers." "I always sign papers with my own pen." "As you wish." "The gun is a small one." "But, it can blow out your brains, Jagavar." "Ask your pawns to drop their guns." "Drop your guns." "Those who don't know the basics of crime, mustn't try to write a book." "If you want to survive, you must start learning from "A-B-C"." "Ask your moll to get the negatives here before you've counted till "Z"." " Go on." "Tell her." " Go." "Get the negatives." "Now, say the lesson." "... Start with "A"." "Here are your negatives." "You just saved his life." "Now, you must escort me to my car as a good host does." "Come on." "About turn..." "Hurry." "Stop!" "Don't!" "Else, he'll shoot the Boss." "Didn't I tell you that I don't sell anything that's named after Kunal?" "Here." "Take that." "Who invited Jagavar to the disco party the other day?" "I did!" " Listen KK Singh..." "Jagavar may be your friend." "But for all of us, he's a snake-in-the-grass." " lt's time for introspection." " What do you mean?" "Why was your grandson photographing us at the party?" "Why does he do such a thing?" "If he goes on, we'll get into trouble." "And, he'll get into trouble too." "Come over here." "is that how you repay the love I have given you?" "is this the outcome of what I've strived all my life for?" " What have I done, Grandpa?" " And that's what he asks!" "What have you done!" "You have killed someone!" "You're a murderer!" "You've cheated me!" "You've cheated your mother and your innocent father!" "You're destroyed everything!" "You're destroyed my dreams!" "What an end to the dreams I have dreamt!" "Shame on you!" "Take this." "Grandpa... beat me some more." "Beat me up... cut me up into pieces." "But, I won't give up until I've hacked the MlZlA gang to pieces." "And what are you going to do?" "Are you going to kill everyone?" "Till now, I haven't killed anyone." "But now, I will." "Till today, you have designed my destiny." "From this day onwards, I take my destiny in my hands." "I'll kill with your gun, which I have taken from your closet." "I'll kill the MlZlA gangsters and I'll kill the gang-leader too." "What are you doing?" "Have you gone insane?" "I haven't gone mad, Gurbax." "He's the one who is raving mad!" "Oh yes!" "I'm mad!" "For Grandpa, it's only a servant who has been killed." "I've lost a father!" "A poor father!" "Grandpa doesn't want them to get caught." "And that's became they are his friends..." "KK, Chiang... everyone!" "Grandpa is scared of them." "He's scared." "But why is he scared?" "He is an important person in this city." "And he runs scared!" "Why?" "!" "I don't want any help to fight the ones who have killed my father." "You're the root of all problems." "Had you not objected to the girl  had you not broken her heart..." "had you not sent her away... ,Abu Babu would've been alive." "And Kunal wouldn't have left this house." "It's a do-or-die situation for him." "His heart is broken in this world." "Had he been married to Durga, he would've been a responsible man." "He wouldn't have thought of revenge." "Why won't you let him marry Durga?" "!" "Let him have the one he loves!" "I'll do anything, Gurbax." "Please help me save my crumbling family." "I can't live here without him!" "I can't!" "Don't worry. I'll set everything all right." "I have no one, Abu Baba." "I'm helpless." "I don't know what's gone wrong between you and your grandfather." "But I know that your grandpa has given you more than the heavens can." "All I want to say is that, unless you come home, your grandpa might die." "And I also want to tell you that your grandfather accepts Durga." "The two of you must go home to seek his blessings." "I'll break your head unless you do what I said." "My friend is good man at heart." "That's what you don't know." "Come." "Go on." "Forgive them." ""Sorry"." "My foot!" "So he's back!" "Home comes the Lord after breaking my heart." "While he was away for a day, I died!" "I lost half my life worrying!" "I've lost half my life!" "Do you hear that?" "!" "Dear, remind him... lf he can get angry, I can get angered twice as much." "I've fathered his father." "Do you hear that?" "!" "I'm your Father's Dad!" "Do you hear that?" "!" "And the fool stares at me!" "Fool." " Come inside, Lady." " Hold on." "You fool!" "A bride doesn't enter a household in this manner." "You must do it the traditional way." "Only then will I give away the bride." "And, are you from the bride's kin?" "!" "You change colours like a chameleon!" "Well, all right. lt'll be as you say." "Let's go in, Son." "Can I ask you something Grandpa?" "How much do you really love me, Grandpa?" "More than your father would ever have." "I love you very much too, Grandpa." " How much?" " More than your son would ever have." "Time will test that." "You're 18 years of age as of today." "My worries are over." "I'm throwing a party tonight." "You'll become a chairman in 18 companies." "What else?" " And what more would you want?" "Durga." "Shameless fellow!" "All right." "I'll announce the engagement." "Just the announcement?" "Nothing else?" "Do you want everything all at once?" "Ask Durga's mother to come and meet me." "We must talk things over." "And we must decide upon a date for the marriage." "It's going to be a grand marriage." "What do you have against my Grandpa?" "is it a crime to be rich?" "I don't understand..." "Come with me. I'll explain everything." "He's my husband... back home after 14 years in prison." "The person who is responsible for this is none other than..." " ... your grandfather." " Grandpa!" " Let bygones be." " l must!" " No!" " Tell him who his grandfather is!" "And what his businesses are!" "He's a big time criminal!" " What do you mean?" "!" " Let it be, Parvati." "No!" "You must tell me all about my grandfather." "For my sake... for Durga's sake." "It's well known that your grandfather is with the MlZlA." "Yes!" "The MlZlA!" "Go on..." "how is he related to the group?" "He's the chairman of the MlZlA." " You're lying!" " No." "You made it up!" " No." "No!" "It's the truth." "According to our reports, its too dangerous to let that girl live." "My grandson has come of age." "Today, he joins Kunal lndustries." "Let us not do anything gory today." "If we don't take care of her, she'll become a problem." "She'll destroy us." "You're the chairman of the MlZlA." "I'm sick of this chairmanship, Mr.David." "One can enter the world of crime." "One cannot leave it, Mr.Sobhraj." "Very well." "Let the day pass." "But, we'll keep the girl in our custody." "Ladies and gentlemen..." "On the 18th birthday of Sir Sobhraj Singh's grandson, Kunal... , a new mill named Kunal Silk Mills is being added to Kunal lndustries." "I've called up everywhere." "But, there's no news of Kunal." "Send the car over to Durga's house." "He might be there." "We are eager to see Kunal assume the chairmanship of this company." "He's expected in a short while." "Here he comes." "The management and workers congratulate Mr.Kunal." "We expect him to devote every effort in continuing the success story..." "That is the oath Mr.Kunal must take today." "Everyone is waiting anxiously to hear you speak." "Mr.Kunal." "My grandfather has anointed my forehead and has bound me unto truth and honesty." "My grandpa loves me dearly." "Today, I remember Abu Baba fondly." "Abu Babu... you're sitting here somewhere amongst us... aren't you?" "D'you see what's going on here, Abu Baba?" "I can hear Abu Baba speak." "And, I can hear him say that wealth  is amassed at the expense of many who have been poor." "As was Abu Baba." "These carpets reek of the flayed skin of men who have died." "I can hear the screams of labourers chained to bondage in our mills." "Has this nation been founded upon lies and dishonesty?" "Are edifices built upon these vices?" "is that what we've been taught?" "I do not want an institution watered with the blood of the workers." "I'm a very insignificant person." "And I can't take this oath." "I don't want anything." "I beg pardon of my grandfather." "I beg your pardon." "Are you leaving?" "Yes." "Very well. I won't try to stop you." "But, hear me out before you leave." "After you have left, I won't be able to him in this house." "I shall surrender myself to the law which I've tried  to dodge for many years, while I have tried to protect you." "And I won't walk to the gallows with my head hung in shame." "I shall hold my head high in pride, and I shall tell the world that  the hangman's noose is really a garland of flowers  that my grandson has given me." "Yes. I am a criminal." "And I've sold my soul." "I've struck an enemity with God." "And I have rebelled against Him." "If I have thieved, it was for you." "If I'm a criminal, it's you who has driven me to crime." "Before Shamsher Singh breathes his last  he will leave a massage for every parent in this world." "I shall ask every parent not to sell his soul for the sake of a child." "I shall ask them not to lose sleep, nor peace for the sake of a child." "For the child will one day stand to judge you when he grows up, though  he understands not the frivolous perspicacity of his demeanour." "Thus they will measure us and dispose of us with wretched abuse." "And such are bound to be abused." "For when a father tries to  amass more wealth than is necessary for his child;  when he tries be become a millionaire using unfair means,  such is bound to happen." "They will be abused, Grandpa." "For, your grandson isn't proud of you." "I'm ashamed of you." "One day, I shall have a family, and children too." "And, what am I to tell them?" "What?" "!" "Am I to tell my children that their ancestors were criminals?" "Am I to tell them that this palatial house is founded upon crime?" "When you have children, and are forced to live in penury,  your question will answer itself." "You haven't yet tasted the bitter fruits of truth and hard labour." "I have been through the rigours of a hard life." "I have never let you live in the shadow of labour." "It was Abu Baba who had protected me." "Him!" "He taught me the way of honesty and hard labour." "You'd sent me to him." "The result is what is happening today." "Your grandson is leaving you and your wealth." "Go away!" "But remember that you aren't leaving me." "You're forsaking your destiny." "Do you think that you're the architect of my destiny?" "800 million people are surviving in this country by dint of hard labour." "They fend for themselves." "The architect of their destinies will lead me to mine." "I place myself in the hands of my Creator." "Your chairman is blinded by filial concern." "He opposed the MlZlA convention  in preventing Neelima from being executed." "Why did he do that?" "The girl is still in our custody." "She's small fry." "You can't prevent a greater threat." "Sobhraj has everyone scared witless." "What you need is a good leader ... a competent chairman." "Kunal killed your son, KK." "Now, he's plotting to kill all of you." "The revolt against his grandfather is proof of that." "If you don't decide on this in a few minutes..." "KK speaking." "Please come to an urgent meeting of the MlZlA group." " l can't attend." " You must." "It's a matter of Kunal's life and death." "Your grandson Kunal is a potential threat to us." "It has been the convention that we eliminate threats when threatened." "We have decided unanimously, to eliminate Kunal within 24 hours." "Are you aware how Kunal is related to me?" " Do you know who he is?" " Questions pertaining to  emotions and relationships are irrelevant." "The question is relevant, because you know how much I love Kunal." "Did you care for my feelings when you had my son-in-law shot?" "What of the murder of my son Ponchy?" "Don't speak like that KK." "You know that Kunal is innocent!" "I'll reason it out with him." "You are free to take everything except my child away from me." "I promise you that I shall take him away to someplace faraway." "If the chairman himself wants to violate the rules  he forfeits his right to the chair." "I don't want this chairmanship." "We had guessed this outcome earlier, Mr.Chairman." "Which is why we've already chosen a new chairman." "And, we've passed the order too." "Our new chairman is Jagavar Chowdhary." "I don't think it pleases you to meet the new chairman." "But it's your own MlZlA group that accords me such an honour." "And as of now, you are under arrest." "A vulture cannot masquerade as a lion." "Remember it." "I shall never let your malafide intentions succeed!" "Where has he gone?" "Follow him!" "I'm not related to Grandpa anymore." "I have no wealth, nor any standing." "Still, I've come to seek Durga's hand in marriage." " The decision lies in your hands." " But, Kunal..." "Fantastic!" "What a grandson!" "Lucky was the mother who bore you." " You?" " You're lucky to have him  for a son-in-law." "He has forsaken millions in wealth." "You'd never find such a gem of a person." "Everyone's talking about him." " But... who are you?" " We have very little time." "Your grandfather and the MlZlA are plotting to kill you in 24 hours." " l'd like to see that happen." " Don't be foolish." "Run away!" "You're in grave danger!" "MlZlA assassins are after you!" "They're the ones attacking." "We have no time to think." "Move it!" "Durga and Kunal..." " Why?" "What happened?" "!" " Jagavar Chowdhary has abducted them." "That's true." "I've seen them myself." "Where's Jagavar?" " Do you remember, Balloo?" " What?" "18 years ago, the drums back in our village played the same beat." "His father Pratap had called out at me in a similar tone." "He died the death of a dog." "Poor fellow." "After my hands are freed, you'll die a worse death, Jagavar." "You're hot-headed." "Please listen to me, Mr.Jagavar." "This is no time for an exchange of dialogues." "Shoot him dead and be done with it." "You don't know his grandfather." "He'll risk his life for the sake of his grandson." "I won't let him die so easily." "His grandpa loves him very much." "He'll follow the trail and come here." "If he does arrive, he'll kill all of us." "He will come." "But, he won't get out of here alive." "This is Jagavar's house." "And guns trained outside  have been ordered to shoot anyone who tries to enter." "There he is." "Shoot him if you can." "You cannot become a chairman unless I say so." "I have millions invested in businesses with you." "I'll meet you tomorrow and clarify everything." "No. I must see you immediately." "But, the present situation is fraught with danger." "Come what may, I must meet you immediately." "Where are you speaking from?" "I'll see you at the China Creek Bridge at 2 a.m. sharp." " We must get Mr.David over here." " Our men are guarding all points." "Which is why you must travel by my white car." "You must  bring Mr.David back in the same car." " Why the white car?" " The guards have been instructed  to blow up any other car." "Explain that to Mr.David." "Mr.Chiang should accompany you as he knows Mr.David." "You are no friend!" "Our friendship is no more, is it?" "Yes." "Our friendship is over." "My time has come." "Not yours." " Go away from here." " Don't talk nonsense!" "We've lived together." "And together will we face death." "Here come Jagavar's hounds." "No!" "Don't shoot!" "Listen to me!" "I'm an innocent." ""Shamsher!" "Don't!"" ""Forgive me!" "In the name of Lord Shiva!"" "In the name of Lord Shiva!"" "Please save my life, Sir!" "Do you recognise me?" "Who are you?" "I'm Shamsher Singh." "Shamsher Singh?" "!" "No!" "You can't be!" "Shamsher Singh..." "Pratap Singh's father." "I haven't been able to forget your ugly face." "Tell me... who was your boss?" "I'll tell you..." "... it was Jagavar Chowdhary." "Not Sobhraj..." "I'm Shamsher Singh." "Kunal was born on the same day that Pratap died." "On that day, Shamsher Singh died too." "And I became Sobhraj." "Beat him up, Son!" "Bash him up, Pratap!" "Don't spare him!" "Kill him!" "He's the root cause of our ill luck." "He's the one who has destroyed our happiness!" "He set our lives on fire!" "Don't you spare him!" "There goes Jagavar." "Follow them." "Take him along." "Beat them to pulp!" "My friend!" " l'm leaving." " Don't speak so, my friend." " For God's sake, my friend!" " l'm leaving." "You have moulded us out of clay." "We're your humble servants, O'Lord."
