Salaam Bombay!

Hey, Moti, get ready! We're off.

Krishna, the boss is coming.

Who the hell's going to work, your father?

Run to town.

Buy three big tins of Ganesh paan masala.

Make damn sure it's Ganesh. None of your tricks.

A ticket to the nearest big city.

Pay up.

Which city?

Bombay. Come back a movie star!

Where are you going?

My queens, where are you off to? Salaam, king of Bombay fuckers.

Move, move!

Move, move! Move fast. Move!

Move fast! Move fast!

- Give me my paan masala! - What? it's all meaningless.

Will you give it to me?

Om, peace, peace, Om

Hurry, let's go. A policeman is coming.

My paan masala!

Tea-boy!

Tea!

Yes, yes. More to the left.

Don't you get it? Left!

- Baba, tea. - Where's Chillum?

Don't know.

Find him. Send him here.

Chillum!

Salim, you owe me money for yesterday's tea.

Bumpkin, look down, the sack shouldn't fall.

Hey, Salim!

- At least let me have my tea. - Pay me for the tea.

Get off! You want money for the tea!

Where is 109?

Take it easy. Let's go inside.

Take it. Here's your money.

From where have you come? Don't speak Hindi?

Don't worry. You'll soon learn it all.

Isn't she lovely? So fair?

She's new.

Why are all of you here? Isn't there any work in the house?

Out, all of you! Out!

Here, drink some.

Tea's gone. Glass gone, too.

There's a glass missing.

It broke, Chacha.

I told you, if anything gets broken, you've got to pay.

Chacha, how much have I saved up?

Wasting your life on the streets. You should be studying!

You've saved 5 rupees a day. That makes 150.

Minus 10 for the teas your pals drink.

Minus 2 for the glass you broke.

So, 12 rupees cut.

How long will it take to save 500?

Saving up for your wedding?

It'll take a long time. Now go!

Tea-boy, too much water in the tea.

What can I do? There's water everywhere.

See, the man runs...

steals something and runs.

Look, Ma.

Look, he has come on time. Put the tea here.

Sit in the chair.

Take your shirt off.

Manju, pass me the towel.

Take that shirt off.

Why are you feeling shy? I've seen many in my time.

Ma, look. My song!

My name is chin chin choo

In the moonlight and you Hello, mister, and how do you do?

Hi, my Sridevi.

Princess of my dreams.

I knew it. You'd never let me down.

You know what Chungal said?

There's a new girl in 109. A sexy, very fair number.

Sexy. So what?

You'll see. Like Mandakini, she'll change soon.

Come boys, push it in harder

Come boys, push it in the car

Move it, boys, push it in far

Know what this Bumpkin said?

"Here, have some."

I'm not playing.

I'll take you with me.

I'll show you how to keep the girls happy.

What's up?

Hey, lnsect! Shut up!

Got money? I'm feeling lucky today.

Saving it up? You're rich. Can't you give me a loan?

Me? Rich? I need to save 500.

Chacha cut 2 rupees.

The new girl broke a glass.

New girl?

So, you've lost your heart?

No, man.

How old is she? 15?

13?

14?

- 16? - 16.

Sweet Sixteen, slick name! Out with the money!

Give me the money! Let me see how many you have.

You already owe me some. Give it back.

Champ, for this fiver, I'll show you the Taj Mahal.

Tell anyone, and I'll slit your throat.

State Bank, Chillum Branch.

The bank's empty, but not for long.

You, Bumpkin, you be the manager. Keep your money here.

Safer here than with that crook Chacha. Full-time safe!

Thank you, boss.

O whore of my dreams, when will you come to me?

Rafique Bhai said you had work.

Clean the place. You'll get 3 rupees each.

Who is she?

- Sweet Sixteen. - What a stupid name!

Shut up, runt!

Why are you hollering? We've paid, just like you.

We'll do as we please.

England? Which land?

America.

- Coke, coke? - No coke.

Where is sir from?

From New York.

One path taking, flying Air lndia.

- How much? - 250.

- Too much. - Too much? No, man!

- Not 250. - Okay. For you...

special price.

- 150. - Why not?

- Give some to your brother, okay? - Thank you.

Salaam, Hashim Bhai.

A man who doesn't smoke hash is like a man without balls.

Isn't that right?

Not so hard the first time, big boy.

I ripped off a white boy. So I said, "Let's celebrate."

Thought I'd show Bumpkin here the real thing.

Not Baba's trash.

You scared?

Why did you do that? I want to go back. Come on.

We've come so far, and you want to go back?

Give me your hand.

Hey, Chillum, the sky's spinning.

Let the fucker spin. Sit down.

This is the granddaddy of all poisons.

Sometimes my heart tells me...

I should swallow rat poison...

and sleep for the last time.

All the end.

Why don't you give it up?

You won't understand.

Once it gets you, it won't let go

Not until you die

Not until you're dead

That fat foreigner!

You were as green when you first got here.

Do you remember that day?

When did you come to Bombay?

It's ancient history, kid. I forgot.

How could you?

I was half your size when I ran away from home.

When I was that high, I had seen all of lndia three times.

By train, ticketless.

Up, down...

left, right...

And then?

Forget it. Why spoil a good high?

So, you think...

you can go back to the sweet village air?

Of course! As soon as I have my 500.

What's this business about 500 rupees?

You know, my brother lied to my mother about me.

He said I stole his money.

He beat me when he felt like it.

When Father died, he became a big boss.

I got pissed off.

He was a mechanic. He came home with a client's bike.

I set it on fire.

Ma said I couldn't stay home anymore.

You sneaky bastard!

Then?

Ma took me to the circus...

and left me there. She said:

"Don't come back until you have 500 for your brother."

I said, "Fine.

"In a month and 17 days, I'll save 500 and go back home."

You stupid ass! You'll get burnt someday.

Forget them all!

Mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, friends...

lovers, Sweet Sixteen... Useless bloody lot.

Me, too?

Aren't I your friend?

Chillum has no friends.

Mind your own business, or else...

Or else? The Chiller Room?

What's this Chiller Room?

Want to see it?

No problem.

I'll hand you over to a cop.

He'll show you Chiller Room air.

You'd never do that to me.

You've shown me paradise.
