New Delhi (ന്യൂ ഡൽഹി)

The list of fifteen prisoners is ready.

If they would’ve been fortunate why would they’ve come in this hell?

Friend, sometimes you get heaven in the hell too.

Yes, let’s see in whose name the lottery comes out.

Hey! Stop talking! Start working!

We’re doing that only.

Hey! Keep quiet.

Sir, this list.

Hmm.

Mr. Sahani, please come in my room.

Mr. Sahani, this is the list of fifteen prisoners.

Of them Minister will choose fifteen prisoners.

Sir, why have you included the name of Vijay Kumar in it?

Minister won’t like it.

Mr. Sahani, we need not worry about it.

We had got orders from the top to make a list of fifteen..

..prisoners who have good behavior and performance.

So we’ve made it.

Now the selection of five prisoners from amongst them..

..is in the hands of the minister.

Yes sir.

Sahani, you display this list on the notice board

VK sir! VK sir!

What’s the matter Anant?

There’s good news sir.

Even your name is in the list of those who will be released today.

It's true VK sir.

Don’t you believe it? It’s true!

I’ve myself read on the notice board.

Your name is at the fifteenth position.

Rest your fate knows.

No Anant.

I am not so fortunate.

You'll see. My number will never come.

And even if it comes, Shankar Babu and Deshbandhu Sharma..

..will never let me free.

Hey! What are you all talking?

It’s time for the minister to come. Come quickly!

Hail mother India!

Hail Shankar babu!

Hail Bandhu Sharma!

Hail mother India!

For having come to participate..

.. in this year’s Republic day celebration..

..and to meet you all, I on behalf of you all and myself welcome..

..honorable union minister Shri. Shankar Babu..

..and the chairman of Janseva Party Shri. Deshbandhu Sharma.

After the distribution the sweets honorable minister..

..will remove the name of five prisoners in lottery.

And they will be released.

Please come sir.

Wait. Hey!

Put your right hand forward.

Didn’t you hear? Put your right hand forward.

Sir, Vijay’s right hand is non-functional.

I know that.

Are you deaf?

I told you to put your right hand forward.

So many pictures this hand has made.

So many articles this hand has written.

I want that hand of yours only.

That which had changed the nib of the pen..

..into the sharp edge of the sword.

Hey, I want this right hand of yours only.

Vijay, go in your cell. Go.

So many articles this hand has written.

I want that hand of yours only.

That which had changed the nib of the pen..

..into the sharp edge of the sword.

No. 1, Khursheed Ahmed.

No. 2, C. K. Chopra.

No.3, R. Mishra.

No. 4, Ranjit Singh.

Fifth and final.

Vijay Kumar! Alias VK!

No!

Ratan singh!

No! No! This is injustice! This is partiality!

I won’t agree to it! I don’t agree!

This is dishonesty!

Lottery is in the name of VK sir. Release VK sir!

I don’t agree at all! This is dishonesty!

This is dishonesty!

I say release VK sir!

Release VK sir! Lottery was in the name of VK sir!

Let my life be taken but I absolutely won’t agree to this!

Let these five prisoners be released.

Anant, what was the need to become a martyr for me?

I had told you before only that those people won’t let me be freed.

Even after the punishment is over they will set me up..

..under some new allegation.

Doesn’t matter, VK sir.

Some day or the other I will release from the jail.

Then I’ll see them.

VK sir, I am not afraid of anyone.

To murder is far is easier for me than to commit theft.

Take this brother.

What is this?Oil.

The oil of the polar bear.

It’s of the Kashmiri from the C-ward.

It’s the best for the pain.

When we asked from him, he didn’t give.

So we showed him the magic of our hands.

But why this bear’s oil.

To grow the hair of the bear on my wounds?

Look, you all go in your respective cells.

If policemen will see, they will beat you all badly.

Hey! Who’s there?

What’s it?

What’s this murmuring going on?

Nothing sir.

Hey! Come on! Disappear!

What Anantu? How are you feeling now?

Is this much sufficient or you want more?

Was trying to act too smart!

What’s the matter VK sir?

You suddenly became very sad?

I am just sad for one thing that..

..maybe on some Republic day..

..or Gandhi Jayanti..

.. my lottery will come out and I’ll be freed..

..in this hope, someone must be waiting for me outside.

Maria.

Maria Fernandes.

Today too, she must be waiting for me.

Hello.

It's her.

Hello.

Miss. Maria Fernandes?

Yes.

Today you began the dance school too early?

Who’s speaking?Your lover.

Didn’t you understand?

I’ll remind you properly.

Yesterday on 26th January after dressing you..

..you had waited for your beloved, hadn’t you?

I mean of that idiot, the great cartoonist cum..

..investigative journalist, Mr. Vijay Kumar, VK.

Shankar! Say Shankar Babu.

Hello Maria.Did you recognize me?

Deshbandhu Sharma.

Yesterday, his name had come in the lottery..

..but Shankar again put a stop on his release.

Maria, your VK is just a small piece of scrap paper..

..that I’ve torn from the book of life and put in the dustbin.

Now what’s left with that handicap fellow?

We are there to do away all your sorrows.

You very well know that our hands and legs both are functioning.

You’ll be happy. - Sharma!

Say darling.

Will you come? Tell me. Tell me please.

Haven’t you gone yet? -No, tell me.

Tell me, what have you thought about my dance school?

Please, come once and see and..

.. then publish whatever you feel is right.

If you don’t can I ask you one thing? -Yes.

What must be your age?

It must be around twenty-two years.

Only twenty two? But you appear to be of around 28 or 30.

You didn’t understand, did you?

Look Maria, you are a daughter of a millionaire.

By marrying off to a millionaire start the business..

..of producing children.

What you’re getting involved in this business of art and..

..running a dancing school?

I’ll think over your decision when I’m free.

First tell me, will you publish your article on my school..

..in your newspaper or not?

But there should be some matter worth publishing.

Look, a girl from Kerala for her principles..

..stays in Delhi and runs a school of classical dance..

.. isn’t this something great to be published?

And then in this work if some money is needed..

..then I’m ready to give it.

Then you’ve completely mistaken me.

By the way, idea isn’t bad.

You will get thousands of such people.

By getting a little bit of alcohol, little beauty and..

..kebabs from little green papers, they will prove in every newspaper..

..that Bharat Natyam had begun not by Bharat Muni but..

..by Miss. Maria Fernandes.

But tell me one thing, what is the connection of..

.. Bharat Natyam with Christian girl?

Why?

Can’t a Christian girl be connected to Bharat Natyam?

Tell me, tell me. Answer me

Oh God! One minute.

Take your picture.

Beautiful. Very nice.

But I can’t forgive you.

Why?

If a third class troupe comes from foreign country..

..you all praise them so much.

But you don’t bother at all about the artist of your own country.

Isn’t this injustice or not?

Maria, you are a female but you talk a lot like males.

It seems you’re tired of me. -Yes.

Fine. I’ll see you.

Tomorrow, I’ll wear the Bharat Natyam dress..

..and dance in your office until you don’t accept my demand.
