Keep it quickly.

Exporting this sandalwood and crocodile skin

is called smuggling, crime and a sin.

What crime, what sin! These things are lifeless.

Now look, at this animal. It's an animal. It has

Iife.

If we export this animal

that would be called smuggling, a sin.

But what do I do? I'm helpless.

My business is smuggling. Hey Villu! Yes, sir.

Put these animals inside. Okay, sir.

So, Lalvani sir, did you bring my money?

Yes, I've got it. Count it if you want.

There is no need to count, Lalvani sir.

In our business, we betray law, but never each other.

This is the first rule of the illegal business.

Mr. Sher Singh. Yes.

While coming here I'd heard that the security

in this jungle's check post is very tight.

Look, in our country, tight security exists everywhere.

But bribery is a very powerful thing.

The heat of bribery melts the strict laws like butter.

You don't worry.

My son Nagender has made a very good arrangement.

You'll pass the check post like

how a hot knife passes an ice wall.

What is in this truck?

I'd told Sher Singh to give you some money.

Here it is? This is nothing.

Even if he had filled a truck with money

still this Anthony would not have accepted it.

I'd played a ruse, to catch you red handed.

No, no, sir. How much money you want, you'll get.

But leave us. Shut up!

I arrest you with the smuggling goods.

My dear, Anthony.

We got suspicious when you accepted the bribe so easily.

Because we knew that you're an honest officer.

So I was keeping a watch on you. And I on you.

Since a long time I'd been keeping a tab

on your smuggling activities, Mr. Nagender.

I'll drag you in the court, see to it that you're punished

and thus put an end on the illegal activities in this region.

Law, justice, court and honesty

these words apply only in cities.

Not in jungles, officer.

Here the law of animals is applicable.

If one animal has to survive

it is necessary to kill another animal.

It's essential to drink another's blood to quench one's thirst.

So, I'll have to become a lion and kill you as my hunt.

Good morning, good morning, Bansi. Give it to me.

Thank you. Forest officer Raja. What! Anthony!

Raja, are you scared to do this job

after the death of Anthony?

Not at all, sir.

In fact I've started appreciating

my duty and my position more than before.

If I don't arrest and punish the criminals

who murdered Anthony then people will stop

trusting the police force and justice, sir.

That's correct, Raja.

That's why the department has decided

to transfer you to Anthony's place.

Any objection? No, sir.

This country gave a scholarship

to an orphan like me and made me such a big officer.

I have many debts to pay for the favours of this motherland.

And it's my duty to arrest people who rob her, sir.

Very good, Raja. I want you to join your duty from tomorrow.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you, Bansi. Thank you very much.

I've applied herbs on your wound. You'll be fine.

I'm your friend, Raja.

Thank you.

Good morning, sir. Good morning.

Sir, I think you're the new officer Raja sir. Am I right?

Yes, but who are you?

I'm your chef, servant, driver, cleaner

dry cleaner everything mashed into one.

My name is Sukha. Sukha? What a name!

You see sir, when I was in the city

my name used to be Sukhiya.

But I became Sukha from Sukhiya from the time

I resumed my duty in the jungle.

Even dangerous animals don't eat me

when they pass my way.

My life is all dry. No problem. I'll make your life lively.

Till that time you get my luggage from the Jeep.

And carry Bansi and Mithu carefully.

If you talk rubbish, then both of them will rip you apart. Go.

Bansi and Mithu? Who are these?

Friends, check post and thorny trees are not sufficient

to end the smuggling in this jungle.

We desperately need the weapons

of honesty, duty and courage.

To nab our enemies, we'll have to work 24 hours

and not just our usual duty hours.

And we'll do this work not only for our salary

but also for the honour of our position.

Understand? Yes, sir.

Sir, I was having my meals to fill my stomach.

I got the information that you've called me.

So I left my plate, and here I'm present

in front of you with my half stomach.

So tell me what's the matter, stomach? I mean, sir?

Can you help me?

Sir, I tell you from my stomach's heart

that I can give you what you want.

Can you give me a loan of 1 0,000 rupees?

Sir, don't say this again.

Otherwise my stomach will burst.

Sir, to tell you the truth, I don't even know

how many zeros are there in 1 0,000.

I don't know.

Okay, tell me, in this department

who is the person who can give me a loan.

In our department? There is one person. Who?

Sukhiram. Will he have so much cash?

Sir, there's not a thing that he doesn't have.

Sir, now you'll ask me how he got all this.

I'll give you the same old answer.

With the grace of stomach.

Sir, sometimes this stomach makes a person a devil.

Sir, but don't tell this to Sukhiram.

He'll kick me in my stomach. Can I go now, sir? Okay.

Sir, sir, you? Can I come inside?

Welcome, sir. Welcome.

Wow! What a nice house! Sir, its government quarters.

This imported liquor, this fridge

T.V, V.C.R. and this red carpet.

Even this is given by the government. Am I right?

Sir, actually Yes, I know.

Now you'll try to say that all this is family heritage.

But I know very well, Sukhiram

that your father was a watchman and your mother

had to clean other's dishes to make you an officer.

Now don't try to lie.

And tell me truthfully, what is your salary?

Sir, 1200 rupees. 1200 rupees!

A person who earns 1200 rupees as salary

can't drink scotch.

A person who earns 1200 rupees as salary

can't have a colour T.V.

No, sir, what are you doing?

Bastard, being a policeman you cheat law.

Before becoming a policeman we have to take an oath.

Did you forget that oath too? Get up.

Anthony lost his life because of people like you.

Sir, please forgive me. Look, look, this blood. Let it flow.

Let the impure blood of bribery come out of your body.

Now give me the names of those who bribed you.

What's the address of the people who killed Anthony?

Sir, God promise, I don't know their name and address.

Those people just throw money

while passing through the check post.

And I get busy collecting that money.

I never tried to Iook at their face.

Because I believe that the less I know about them

the more will I live.

Gangu. Yes, sir. Keep my car ready.

I have to go in the jungle. What! Again jungle!

Let my fate burn!

Sita, marrying Ram, had to live

in the jungles only for 14 years.

And look at me.

I'm living in this jungle for 25 years, after I married you.

You care neither for me nor for this house.

The whole day, you're either in that timber shop

or roaming in the jungle.

Along with you, you've even made

my son Nagender an animal.

I wish my nephew, Budhi was here.

I could have at least poured out my soul to him.

I don't know when my dear Budhi will come.

Here I come, aunty. I've come, uncle.

Budhi, you've come, my dear has come.

You'd gone to Kashi university, hadn't you?

Did you get your PUC certificate

or you just ate and became fat like a buffalo.

Fat? I'm fat? Shall I show you the mirror? Shut up!

If this time you fail, then my heart will also fail.

If this is the matter, uncle, call a doctor immediately. Why?

Because this time too there are good chances that I'll fail.

Will you again fail?

Aunty, I've got Banarasi sari for you from Kashi.

God bless you, my son.

You always get a sari for me

whenever you go to give your exam.

I bless you, God willing, may you fail for another 12 years

and you keep bringing sari for me.

Uncle. What is this? This is a container. I've got it for you.

It contains the sacred water of Ganga.

When you are on the verge of dying

I'll sprinkle this holy water on you with Basil leaves.

Keep it safely. It's a useful thing.

Budhi! When did you come?

When did you come! Talk with respect. I'm elder to you.

Take this. I've got sacred thread for you from Kashi.

Wear it on your neck. Your sins will become less.
