Anth

Say what? You want to fight Dhabla in court?

You'll fight me? - No! No, Dhabla!

Mercy! Forgive me! I will never fight cases

I have small kids. Forgive me...!

No!

The gun.

You will teach Dhabla the reins of business?

I keep rates fixed. Collect the merchandise at the usual price

If not, pack up and vanish. Go!

Just kidding. Why get worked up? I want to work with you only.

There you are. Just buy the stuff and take this

Chugani used to say" "Never retract,

never mind if the path is crooked." Get it?

One must make sure the path is straight.

Even God has given man the sense of thinking critically.

Welcome, Shirke. I was about to send your fare

Good you came. Sit.

I hear the lawyer's wife is creating a ruckus.

Don't worry about that. Let me deal with it.

Inspector, you are a smart one.

What does the government pay you?

If your likes were to work for us, the practice of bribes would end.

Law and Crime share a longstanding relationship.

Both cannot survive without each other.

Yes, I sent his corpse to the morgue.

And termed it an accident and closed the case

Like Dinesh Gupta's. Whom Kali had pushed from the roof.

But worse things happen when a common man

Who will dare raise his voice against Dhabla,

This evening I am going with my friends to a birthday party.

I'll call you up tomorrow morning. - Make sure you get home safe.

My love, my sweetheart...

who was that dude? - Why must you care?

We don't like an outsider wooing a girl from our college.

You mean, only we have the right to them?

Give me a try, love. I'm smart too.

You mustn't talk rash. She is the daughter of the principal

You must not act fresh with her. - Kali!

What impudence is this? - Nothing sir.

I was just explaining to her the college rules

I heard it. Meet me in the office. Right away!

Looks like the Principal wants to give him a thrashing

Last warning. Stop your activities if you want to stay in this college.

Else, I will be compelled to take drastic action.

What will you do?

Tell me, what will you do? Will you expel me?

Will you rusticate Kali, the son Dhabla?

I very well know you are the son of Dhabla...

who has established an empire of crime in this town

But don't you forget, this is a college. And...

I can't let you have your own way. - Hey, don't talk so loud.

You cannot expel me.

Have you forgotten? Dinesh Gupta's demise?

Have you forgotten the statement you gave at his funeral?

My father's name sends a chill down your spine.

Have some water.

Drink it up.

Daughter-in-law

Yes? - Can someone tell me where Pooja is?

It's late. Why isn't she back as yet? - She is with her friends at a birthday party.

I've sent Vijay to fetch her. They should be back any moment.

Insolence!

Not insolence, it's my style. Style!

Just get out of my way!

I won't. What will you do?

You're crossing all limits. Get out of my way,

Else what?

Threatening me? And you have fun with that dude?

Let go!

Brother!

Get lost!

Dare not step forward! Get lost!

Move it!

No! No!

Don't hit me! Don't!

What was the need to party at night?

The friends you move around with, them

and their lifestyle, doesn't suit us.

You will surely land us in trouble if you don't change.

Father, they forced me.

Forced? Don't you have brains to think of your own well-being?

Girls from decent families don't stay away late

Bhabhi! (Sister-in-law) - Calm down.

Stop it now. She hasn't done anything rash, has she?

Enjoying a bit on an occasion is not a crime, is it?

Don't you defend her.

At this age one should tread carefully.

Enough, father. Why are you scolding her?

You haven't said a word about that chap...

Why do we bow instead of standing up to bullies

We curb our womenfolk to get back home early.

But to restrain people like Kali, are we doing anything at all?

Like terrified rats, we scamper to the back of the house.

Brother, this is no decency. This is cowardice.

Forgive me, brother. Because of me you got an earful.

I won't commit this mistake again. - Why bother?

His anger is limited to us. He's like a meek rat in front of father.

By the way, where is she? Haven't seen her in a while.

Babulal, get me some tea. I have a headache.

The long queues for the bus! Add to it the traffic!

ls the boss all heated up? - Yes. Go on. Quick.

Madam, have you cooked up a story to tell him?

Be on time, at least someday. - It's because of you I wake up late.

|...? - Yes. You trouble me in my dreams.

Those dreams drive my sleep away. And when I wake up

it is morning. Get it? - Sure, I do.

Time to get in there. The boss is waiting.

You are already in. ls this any time to come to the office?

Sir, actually the cab... I mean, the bus...

A new excuse!

But learn to be in time. Understand?

Sir, according to the chart... - Relax. Sit.

According to the chart, this plot is ours. But Dhabla is not giving us.

I don't want to mess with Dhabla. God has given us so much already

Why fight over a bit of land? - A bit of land, but it's our land!

He has made a liquor den out of it. Tomorrow he might turn it into a club

and a casino. He may turn it into anything.

What can be done against Dhabla? We did sent him official letters.

It was of no use. You know the state of the police around here.

To let Dhabla have the plot means to bow before a petty criminal.

We should give him a sound reply. - I've tried doing everything I can.

If you have any way out, go ahead.

Hey! Who are you?

Why don't you speak? Are you mute?

You have got the notice to shift this place,

I've burnt countless such notices in this furnace right here.

Whose man are you? Khanna's? Or the governments?

He is an engineer.

Whoever you are, you won't escape alive out of here.

I want this place vacated by tomorrow. Get it?

Else, this fireplace will burn your bones to smithereens.

Tell this to your Dhabla! And yes...

You wanted to know my name, didn't you?

Vijay Saxena. Hear that?

What was his name? Yes, Vijay.

His elder brother is a lawyer. Father, a college principal.

And he is an engineer.

So many educated ones in a family. Do you see?

If you say, shall I cut him in two? - No!

Chugani used to say...

"Deal carefully with the educated". Understand?

But I fail to understand one thing

in the case of Dinesh Gupta, the one whom Kali assaulted,

knows what I am. But how come his son doesn't?

Uncle, he had once before messed with Kali.

You son of a gun! Why haven't you told me that he hit you before?

Pop, I thought... - Shut up!

Not Pop. Don't you call me Pop.

Of what use is that hair which grows on his head & face?

He thinks he is a tiger. Scoundrel! He has tarnished my name.

Get the car. Let me settle scores with that idiot.

Mr Khanna, are you fed up with life?

Say what? It happens. When a man is all alone, the heart starts yearning.

But you have a little son. Where does he study?

Look, Dhabla, I...

Don't you show anything to me. Just listen. Got it?

Just listen to what I say. Interruption makes me forgetful.

What was I saying...? Yes, about your son. He studies in Ooty?

I apologise for what happened. Actually, it was my fault.

I should've held Vijay back. - Look Khanna...

I opened a liquor den on your plot. I agree, I didn't ask for permission.

But you too never complained to me. Did you?

Then what's this all about police, court and notices?

What's going on? But did I ever complain about anything?

I never said a word. Buddy, you do your job & I'll do mine.

Had I wished to grab that land, I could've taken your signature

in the legal documents. I can do it, don't you agree?

But did I do that? Did l? Chugani used to say...

"Never enter into an agreement with educated people."

You and I were going along just fine. Like the government.

Where did that cheapskate appear from?

Come in.

So you are Vijay?

So, it was you who destroyed my liquor den?

Yes. Because the plot which you used to deal in

belongs to Khanna constructions.

How are you related to Khanna? ...Khanna, have you married into his family?

I'm an engineer in this company. - Don't mess up again

Else, Khanna will have to bear the cost of your mistakes.

Dhabla, I feel you have a terrible misconception about yourself.

The first thing you should do is to change the look on your face.

Such heat in the principal's blood!

Let me once lay my hands on you. I'll squeeze like a tomato.

You'll squeeze me...? - Vijay!

You need not interfere. Mind your own business.

The world is bereft of any decency. Everyone becomes weak around thugs.

Why are you upset if Mr Khanna doesn't want to rock the boat?

It's a question of values.

We bow, and it raises heads like Dhabla.

Just yesterday, Kali tried to act fresh with Pooja.

I gave him a reply. But it wasn't harsh.

Scoundrels like him ought to be hacked to pieces.

Vijay, your anger scares me. Won't you smile?

Smile. Please.

I was so nervous meeting your brother.

One look at him scared the hell out of me!

How am I to face the rest of your family?!

Worry not. My folks are very kind. They'll be very happy to meet you.

Agreed. But what am I to talk? What type of a person is your father?

The first time I heard your name, I thought you would be very loud and talkative.
