Coolie No. 1

"Born in this world, I jumped in the arms of my momma."

"My momma..."

"When I got into school, I danced to the tune of cha-cha."

"Yeah, cha-cha..."

"Running after butterflies is where I belonged."

"Small were my feet but the sky was my limit."

Raju...

- Mom... - Raju...

"Then tragedy struck my-oh-my."

"Like in the movies, I got separated..."

"...from my momma."

"Wearing the badge of 786 showed up big brother."

What do you have?

Me...

I... I don't have mom.

"So big brother said learn to smile in your sorrows."

"Life is all about lending a hand."

"Since that day no one messed with me."

"...little cracker, that was me..."

"Like a free kite, Raju soared in the sky."

"Hey Coolie."

I like your son.

Nice boy.

Let Jeffery my son take a look...

...and then we can decide.

- Yes, of course. - Heaven on the Docks, man!

That's him.

Whiskey on the rocks, man!

The favourite son of the Lord.

Jeffery Rozario.

Hello, Mr. Rozario.

I am Jai Kishen.

Marriages are made in heaven but...

...my job is bring families together.

I got it. You're an agent.

Rozario!

Marriage agent, mom.

Mr. Rozario, let the boy and girl get to know each other...

...then we can continue this conversation.

Where is your daughter Sarah?

- I'll go get her. - Hold it!

Just for my knowledge.

How did you guys get here?

Bus.

Bus?

Bus?

Bus?

You were dreaming about making my daughter Your daughter-in-law

...and what did you guys travel in? A Bus?

Enough!

We can't have any relation with these guys...

...because they are already related to poverty.

- Go! - JP, you're going too far.

What far, mummy? I am still here.

And you, agent.

You know what kind of son-in-law I am looking for.

A son-in-law who charters an airplane to buy groceries .

If a country wants to borrow money, they should ask him.

I want a stinking rich son-in-law for my daughter.

And you brought me these stinking cheese rolls! Goddamn.

- Goddamn! - That was pretty humiliating.

Come on, son. Let's go.

- Rude. Very Rude. - Listen...

I never imagined humiliation can be pretty, man.

Jeffery, you have two daughters.

This is not the way to behave.

Do I wait until I've a third daughter?

Mummy, please don't interfere.

Please go light candles in front of Christ.

- Pinto. - Yes, sir.

- Give her a few candles. Keep her busy. - Come on, mummy.

No good relatives and no good agent.

Jeffery Rozario, I am a devoted Pundit.

My self-respect is my pride.

But you...

You're blinded by your arrogance.

But coming to the point...

You'll pay for your ego.

What ego?

You go, man.

I am going.

But I'll come back soon.

Because I'll be the one who gets your daughter married.

Okay, you can whatsApp me the rest later.

'I'll find you a son-in-law who will shatter your pride.'

'A son-in-law who will strip you off your reputation.'

'A son-in-law who will shatter your ego as easily as counting 3...2...1..."

Stop, sir.

I can't carry anymore.

Why don't you hire another coolie, sir?

Money doesn't come easy. Take it.

No, sir.

Uncle, are you alright?

Raju...

Sir, this is not the way.

This is what I am paying him for...

...so he must carry all the luggage.

If you're feeling so sympathetic, then you carry it

Unbelievable, sir.

I am being polite while you're being so disrespectful.

If you see the real me you'll be humiliated

Get lost coolie!

Hey...!

Listen, you piece of a mozzarella stick.

You don't know but I can see the future.

I am an astronaut.

That's astrologer, you idiot.

That's right.

Because I can see in one minute you'll be carrying your own bags.

Because I am highly trained to train those who think that they are trained.

Whether they are in front of the train or behind the train.

Because I fight off the train, by the train, for the train.

See...train.

Beat him. Beat him. Beat him.

Move. Move.

Wait.

Beat him. Raju, beat him.

Drugs.

Meow-Meow...

You were carrying drugs.

Drugs is an addiction that spares no one.

Today it's him, tomorrow someone else.

Now it's your turn.

Bravo, sir.

"Drugs on a roll..."

"...there's no way out for him."

Well done, Raju.

You should've been on the Police force.

Please, sir. I was just doing my job.

Hey wise guy.

What?

Celebrate all you want

But when I come out that will be your last.

See...he's threatening me.

Why don't you kill these guys in an encounter?

Why don't you join the Police force?

Exactly.

As for you...

Threatening me is futile. Because I've no kin to cry.

The world's my home, the station's my hangout...

...come over whenever you like, name's Raju.

And people call me "Coolie No. 1".

Coolie?

Yes, sir.

You brought a coolie to my door.

- Deepak. - Hold on.

So what, sir?

Don't mind, but you're not some emperor.

You're just a driver.

I may be a driver, but I've respect.

I drive expensive cars.

Let's presume that I let him marry my daughter...

...and the trains go on a strike tomorrow.

He'll starve to death.

How will he feed himself and my daughter?

Why do you care? She's my wife.

I'll beg-borrow for her. Why do you care?

See...he's already admitting he's a beggar.

Keep it back!

I feel like giving you a good whack. Who are you calling a beggar?

You.

Who do you think you are some emperor?

Get lost.

Go to the station and carry luggage.

I'll do just that. I am a coolie.

But everyone today is a coolie.

Everyone's carrying a burden on their shoulder.

Whether it's his sorrows, debt, or just life.

And you...

You're a burden on this earth.

Burden?

Shalini, listen. I like you, but your father's scrooge.

Come with me, I'll treat you like a prisoner.

- You mean princess. - Yes, I'll treat you like a princess.

Come with me.

How...

How...

They left.

They...how dare you...

'Agent.'

'You know, what kind of son-in-law I am looking for.'

'A son-in-law who charters an airplane to buy groceries .'

'If a country wants to borrow money, they should ask him.'

'I want a stinking rich son-in-law for my daughter.'

I guess I'll never get married.

Cute cheeks.

Pretty tresses.

She's fantastic.

Raju.

What are you doing, son?

- Raju... - Train's coming.

Raju!

Raju, the train's coming!

Son, the train was so close.

What if it had crushed you?

Correction uncle, I am already crushed.

Oh no...

Tear it and you'll face my wrath.

Return my picture to me.

What's the name?
