Kal Hamara Hai

We were born free.

But then we made cages.

"If not today then tomorrow.."

"..these dark clouds will disperse."

"If not today then tomorrow.."

So what if it's not your chance today?

"If not today then tomorrow.."

Prisoner number 24, your sentence is over.

Friend, you're free to go now.

Okay.. we'll meet again.

Friend, commit a crime yourself before you come here again.

You come here without doing anything.

And the difference between us is clearly visible.

Try to be a nice person so that we never meet again.

Have faith in me. I won't come here again.

Well, everyone says so but they come back.

What do you plan to do now? - My old job.

Are you sure that you'll get the job back?

What? Yes. Why?

Is it true that you didn't commit the crime..

But confessed only to save your boss?

He's CID inspector Mr. Umesh.

I'm very pleased to meet you.

But you're being unjust towards my boss.

I was proven guilty in the court.

I was convicted. I've served the sentence.

Okay, Mr. Bharat.

But I hope you realize soon that hiding someone else's crime..

..or taking the blame upon yourself won't benefit anyone.

It makes matters worse. - Okay.

Bharat! - Jeevan!

Prime Minister Mr. Nehru has presented this year's budget.

Prime Minister Mr. Nehru has presented this year's budget.

Good morning, sir.

Ms. Irvin, I'm not in office. - Yes, sir.

Yes. he's not in.

What do you want to say?

As far as I can make out the government will become strict..

..after the new budget is passed.

Our income tax and the other taxes won't help us anymore.

Mr. Gupta, if the government can levy new taxes..

..we can also show loss instead of profit.

I fear that we'll get caught.

If you can't think of a solution then I can hire others.

Of course you can.

Here is my resignation. - Oh!

So, you've got a new job as soon as the new budget was passed.

No.

I don't wish to work for you anymore.

You're betraying your country.

Our country is in need of more money than you, but you..

I don't wish to hear your lecture. I accept your resignation.

You may leave. - Thank you.

Boss.. - Yes.

Boss, representative of Navbharat Times is here.

You can go in. - Thank you.

Yes, speaking.

Boss, CID police.

Oh! Welcome. Welcome.

You? - Mehra.

Welcome, Mr. Mehra.

Have a seat. - Thank you.

What will you have?

I don't want to waste your time.

The new budget.. - You want to know my opinion about it?

Yes.

You'll be surprised to know but..

Despite being a businessman I was very happy to see the budget.

It's not a secret that our biggest concern now..

..is to make the second Five Year Plan a success.

Our dream of a new India will come true if this plan succeeds.

Our new India.

Our future.

The future of our children.

If we want out future to be bright we must work hard for it.

We must make sacrifices.

That's what the new budget demands.

I'm proud that I'm an Indian.

I'll contribute towards the foundation of new India.

Therefore I request every businessman and Indian that..

..they realize what their duties are.

Evading tax is cheating the country..

..cheating oneself. And cheating the future.

Anything else? - What great thoughts!

Thank you. - Boss.

Excuse me.

Yes. Miss, I'm busy.

Hello, boss.

You? why did you come here?

I've been released from jail. - Released from jail?

What are you doing here?

You promised me that.. - Promise? Promised you?

The poor fellow has lost his mind.

Sir, you didn't recognize me.

I'm Bharat, your driver. I..

I've fired you from job.

My reputation was ruined because of you.

I don't want you to drink and run over someone else in future.

But sir I.. - I'm not ready to help you.

I don't want any favour from you. But you were..

Throw him out.

I don't want to hear anything.

Oh! Sorry.

This is the problem with these petty people.

Do them some favour and they'll be after you.

Yes.

But big people exist of these kind of petty people.

If there's no evil then good will lose its importance.

Hello.

What about Mr. Gupta?

Wayward kids wander on the streets.

They polish people's shoes or beg or pick pockets.

I'm one of them.

Parents?

They don't have any family.

Maybe they've but I don't.

Once I became sensible..

..I found myself in deep abyss but I would always stare at the sky.

I still remember my childhood when I was left on the streets to beg.

One day I ran away.

I remember I was scared and hungry..

..and remained hidden inside a train's compartment for two days.

When I came out someone caught me.

He was a nice man.

He kept me with him for few days.

But I don't remember his face.

The police caught him one day.

I was left alone again.

I got into wrong things.

Smuggling liquor bottles, picking pockets and stealing.

And gradually I reached eminent clubs and hotels.

How are you? - Fine. Thank you.

It was the world of cards and gambling and I was the king of it.

Thousands of bucks would change hands.

I earned a lot more than what I needed. I has no major expenses.

I would spend recklessly.

I was ruining myself.

Leave me. I said, leave me.

Then I met Bela one day.

The goons are after me. - She belonged to a good family.

But she was led astray in Bombay like people usually are.

She would say..

Bela, I can't do it.

I can't change.

Bharat, we ruin the reputation of our country and blame the society.

But, we don't want to bring about the change.

She wanted me to change.

After meeting Bela I realized that I was not that bad.

I could changed and be good.

That's why I lose interest in my work.

Madam!

Please give me a penny. I am hungry. - Me too. - Me too.

Gods and humans. Good and evil.

All these things made me think of changing myself.

Mother!

Mother..

Son, you addressed me as mother? - Yes.

You dropped a hundred rupee note while giving money to the beggars.

I wanted to call you so that I could return the money.

I didn't know how to address you.

The word 'mother' just slipped out of my tongue.

What do you do?

I wasn't brave enough to share my truth with this woman.

Will you work? - Yes.

Get in.

Not there. Sit next to me.

She had lost her son many years back.

If he would be alive he would be of your age.

Mother introduced me to boss.

Instead of hiding anything I shared my truth with him.

And now you want to lead a respectable life.

Yes

Can you drive? - Yes.

Pistol? - What?

Try living a respectable life for some time.

Check out how these rich families function.

Come tomorrow.

I didn't get him, but I didn't think too much about it.

Bela was happy.

My life changed.

But the change came about all of a sudden.

That day boss argued with his clerk for a long time.

You're threatening me. - No, I don't intend to do that.

I understand your motives. I know everything.

He started driving the car.

And he run over the clerk..

If anyone ask you say that you were driving and not me.

Sit behind the steering wheel.

It was the hot topic of discussion in the newspapers next day.

Sir kept promising me.

I won't let anything happen to you.

You're my responsibility now. - The lawyers tried to reason with me.

If sir is proven guilty he won't be spared.

They tried to reason with me.

And the good woman has nothing to say but shed tears.

Bharat, I don't know what to tell you.

You don't have to say anything, mother.

I was driving the car.

I was convicted.

What about Bela? - Bela..
