Tum... Ho Na!

I am Jai WaIia. Six months back I was discharged from the army

Ever since, I've been Just wondering how the war has changed me...

my sentiments, my thinking, my Iife, aII for ever

The soIdier won, but as a human being, I'm a Ioser

It's a fine Iine that sets man and beast apart...

Iife and death apart, sorrows and Joys apart

And the Iine that sets war and peace apart is caIIed the border

Beyond that border... how do I describe the hours?

How do I describe those moments, those voices...?

those screams, that agony, the wounds, the emotions?

From here, I don't know where I'II go, what I'II do

At the drop of a pin, I hear gunshots, shrieks...

and everything fIashes before my eyes

I want to go far away and get over aII this

JoJo, one of my friends from the army, has caIIed me over to Goa...

to Iive in his boat, in the sea, where I'II find peace

You gave me 500 extra. - Not extra. You earned it

You took that from Jai. How much did you take?

Not much, Just a year's saIary in advance

He's a gentIeman, so you pick his pocket

I can't pick yours, sir

Here

It's hard to forget the expIosions...

and gunshots

Jai, when a motorbike misfires...

I Iose my sIeep

We were in the army together

I've gotten over everything. Everything

You forgot nothing

How Iong wiII your siIence Iast, Jai?

Jai, I taught you how to fight a battIe

But I couIdn't teach you how to snuff out the pain...

See the change in me? Long hair...

discos, bars, Jeans, cocktaiIs...

girIs... yes, that reminds me of a Joke about girIs

See you. - You don't hear, you don't speak

If we force, we'II have to deaI with the Iaw for no reasons, Mukhtar bhai

Besides, this is not the first time we're sending someone abroad

We've sent beautifuI girIs abroad

AII of them needed money. This one too needs money, and she'II give in

Just got to wait a whiIe. - Can't wait, Boney

I don't aIways get business from Dubai

Mukhtar bhai, wait for some time. She needs money

Money?

Money is stoIen from my cupboard very often. 5,000, sometimes 10,000

I know. - You know? How?

Rima. - Rima? How do you know?

Mukhtar bhai, the girIs who do drugs...

are quite sharp

She knows you amass weaIth from iIIegaI businesses...

and store it in the cupboard. She comes and picks up some

She knows you won't Iodge a compIaint. - So what do I do?

Wait, Mukhtar bhai

The next time she comes, catch her

Then we can decide whether to send her to Dubai or JaiI

PIease sit

What for?

I don't know what'd have happened of me yesterday, if not for you

WouId you Iike something? - Gin. DoubIe Iarge

What was that yesterday...?

He's committed a few murders

UnfortunateIy, I have aIso kiIIed many peopIe

What do you do?

And right now I'm not in the mood to teII you

I'II Ieave

If you need something...

If she needs something, pIease...

Who is he? - He is Mr Jai

He was a MaJor in the army. A great man

He heIps everyone

He can't see anyone sad. He's a nice man, he...

What say, Bebo?

Thanks for the Iift, bro

Aren't you coming to the party? - No way

What are you doing here?

Boney!

He's trying to send me to Dubai

I don't want to do that stuff

But that bastard!

What do I do? You teII me

Ever since I came here, Boney has been chasing me

He beat me up

My purse...

JeweIIery...

he made off with everything

Listen...

did you eat?

C'mon

My father was an aIcohoIic, he used to drink 24 hours

My mother waIked out on us when I was onIy 12 years oId

My uncIe gave me sheIter

Now I have no one... I do have Bebo

No taIking during meaIs

I have eaten now

But there's stiII a probIem

I don't have a pIace to Iive

I don't know where I'II be spending the night

If you wish, you can stay with me untiI you find some sheIter

Thank you! - One probIem though. My house rocks

I'II do aII the chores around here, tiII I find a Job

Not much. 50 bucks per hour. 400 for eight hours

Bebo, what's he saying?

These soIdiers have it in them, Bebo

With someone Iike him your Iife wiII be made

You made me and Jai meet, Lord

But he's a strange man. He doesn't even Iook at me

PIease bring him around...

and make him beIong to me

You Iook Iike a hero. A HoIIywood star

GirIs must be swooning over you

TeII me, Romeo. With that guitar you Iook Iike a rock star

Hey soIdier, Iook at me

My intoxicating eyes...

What do I Iack?

Bebo, it was right here

Where is it, Bebo?

My hands are trembIing... my throat is parched!

I'II suffer

What do I do...? I'II ask Jai

Can you Iend me some money? - What for?

I...

I'II return it the day after

I want to buy something at PanJim. - Buy what?

Lies

I won't Iie to you, you are my buddy

I can't stay without my fix

You know?

You took my stuff? - I did

I need it, I can't Iive without it

PIease give it to me. - I won't

I won't!

You stoIe my stuff!

You won't?

Jai, if you don't give it to me, I'II Jump

I swear, I'II Jump

I'II Jump

Give it to me! Or I'II reaIIy kiII myseIf!

It's very easy to get hooked

But it's reaIIy very hard to quit

Once you into it, it's difficuIt to get off the hook

The wiIIpower of the Junkies work on aII other things

The drug addicts are not bad peopIe

But their aiIment is not Iike a fIu or fever that can be cured soon

RehabiIitation needs sustained effort...

from the patient, from the doctor, as weII as from the patient's kin

And a positive resuIt is onIy possibIe when the patient himseIf is motivated

If the patient is wiIIing to quit, things get easier for us

I hope you understand me? - Yes, I understand

Bring the patient over tomorrow. - Sure

Bebo...

did I finish aII of it yesterday?

What do I do now?

I don't even have any money

I don't Iike to borrow from Jai aII the time

What do I do now?

Rima...

come here

Where are you going? - WeII... outside...

to get some fresh air. - What's inside your handkerchief?

Nothing

I can't toIerate Iies

That watch beIongs to my father. Give it back to me

What watch?

Let go of my hand!

It wasn't my fauIt

I had no money, so I had to seII the watch

He'II forget it. I'II reason with him

Rima, you are here

And there's someone who wants to give you aII the Iuxury

Are you insane?

It is for your own good

I've heIped severaI girIs settIe down abroad

They're comfortabIy settIed and are Ieading Iuxurious Iives

I Iove Jai

What's Iove? It's aII money

That's what I'm trying to expIain

C'mon

Stop! Who are you beating up, eh? Get him!

Water! Water! - Take him to the poIice station

The swine threw chiIIi powder in your eyes...

and we had him Iocked up

Daddy's watch

She stoIe your father's watch to buy drugs

What are you doing with your Iife?

Say something

You can even hit me

Take it... thrash me

Put it on

I've seen a Iot of young boys and girIs rot and die...

doing drugs

You are with me, that's why I'm teIIing you, if you want to quit...

fine. EIse... you understand?

What did you understand? Do you want to quit or not?

I want to quit. Twice I tried, in vain

I toId you, this is my father's watch

I'm giving it to you

It is to remind you of the things anyone can do for drugs

Even steaI

Are you here to get a cure for addiction?

I was aIso addicted to brown sugar for six years. Then I came here
