I have lost the will to live, my son

Nothing will happen to you, Mother.

Hunger has exhausted me. Leave me alone, Babu.

I won't leave you mother... I will get you some food.

Wait for me, Mom... I'll be back soon!

Auntie! Please give me some food for my mother. Please!

It's a matter of her life, auntie!

Kalibhaiya! Give me some bread for my mother... else, she'll die.

I'll always be indebted to you!

Auntie! Open the door! Please save me from becoming orphan.

I have no one except my mother.

For God's sake, give me some bread. Or else, my mom will die!

Anybody in?

Look, mom! I've got food for you!

I have brought food for you! Have it, mom!

You will be strong and will be able to walk again.

What's wrong, mom? What has happened to you?

What's happened to you, mom?

You can't leave me, mother.

Son, your cries won't bring back the dead.

Wipe your tears.

You have learnt the last lesson of a hard life.

Those who beg, are kicked by people...

and the same people wag their tails before those grab!

Sultan helps those who write their own destiny.

Take my hand; come with me.

Come, son. Come with me.

Come, son, don't be afraid.

This is my small fiefdom. And they are all my kids.

This is Abdul. My nephew. He looks after the factory.

What are you looking at?

This is a pistol, a revolver; all these are revolvers.

Do you want to try it out? Take this, son... go ahead.

The sight of you has revived the dreams I had long buried.

My wisdom, and your courage...

will take me to the peak of success!

And then, I will confer on you the title... Badshah!

Our informer has finally succeeded. He has news for us.

Dayalji's shop will be robbed by the same gang at 8 p.m. Today.

Don't try to act smart! Or else, we'll shoot you.

Make it fast!

Abdul! Hurry up!

I give you guys time, till the count of three!

Come out of the car with your hands up.

One, two...

Your greed would have killed all of us today.

Fantastic! Badshah has brought diamonds from an ocean on fire!

I did it 20 years ago!

You were a child. And I decided to make you my confidante...

I did the right thing!

Today, I see my dreams coming true. My desires being fulfilled.

You were my companion. Now you share my secrets.

Your clothes are torn. Get yourself some new ones.

What happened, Sapna? What thoughts are you lost in?

In a world of animals, I've met a human for the first time.

What do you mean?

I've only had people drooling at my body.

This is the first man who noticed my torn clothes.

Congratulations, Badshah.

You don't recognize me. But I know you.

I have all your records.

My name is Arjun Pradhan...

Inspector Arjun Pradhan.

You robbed a jeweller last night...

and were smart enough to give me the slip.

I don't regret that.

Because I have now decided to catch you red-handed.

And this is the first and last time I'm warning you.

You'll have to be very lucky every time you commit a crime.

But I'll have to be lucky just once, in order to arrest you.

So get the hell out of here!

Or you're going to rue your destiny all your life.

I don't live on borrowed time.

I've shaped my own destiny.

One last suggestion, Badshah.

Either give up crime forever. Or quit town with your friends.

Because I'm now out with a shroud on my head.

Whether you wear it or I... it makes no difference.

It's 50:50 for us, Sultan.

You decide the place and I'll decide the time of the delivery.

What time? - 3 p.m. Which place?

Behind the Ramtek quarries.

A small fish can even survive in the well.

But once it grows bigger... it needs a river.

And every fish yearns to swim in the seas.

It's time to rule the world of crime that I have so badly pursued.

The deal takes place behind the Ramtek quarries at 3 p.m. Tomorrow.

Put off the deal for a few days. The police are extremely alert.

What does that mean?

The police department has an honest officer in Inspector Pradhan.

As sincerely as we pursue our business...

that man does his duties most diligently.

Stop worrying about him, Badshah.

I've had his informer bumped off.

He'll never get to know about us anymore.

Stop, Badshah! Or else, I'll have to open fire!

You wanted to save a man who was out to kill you!

C'mon!

Wait here, Badshah. I'll try and find some help.

What's happened to you? Are you okay?!

Why doesn't anyone listen to me? - Nobody will listen to you.

God seems to be deaf, too.

Who are you? - His friend, Abdul.

I went out to seek help for him. - Don't worry.

I live close-by... Help me carry him.

We must rush him to a doctor or a hospital immediately.

No. No one must know that you have someone wounded in this house.

What enmity could this good man have with anyone?

A good man does not go looking for enemies...

his enemies find him.

Hold his arm tightly.

Will you always daydream? Get ready to go to work!

Where did you find this bird? How and when did you trap it?

Have you got into the business then? - Uncle!

Relax... this monster understands only the language I speak!

Who's he? - He's ill.

An ailing lover!

Whom are you conning? Me? Or is it him?

He's wounded.

To serve in the name of humanity is for the rich, my dear.

It isn't for entertainers like us.

What will we live on, if you don't dance on the streets?

It must be your yearning for the booze that makes you speak thus.

I only drink! I don't pimp for you!

I'd have had your head rolling the day you forced me into it!

Get the hell out of here! This instant... get lost!

I'll have your blood if I see you around again!

Make a whore out of me, my foot! Don't you show me your face again!

My Uncle! Damn it!

Don't worry... this is something that happens every day.

I can't help it. It's difficult for an orphan girl to live alone.

Even if my uncle is a drunkard...

it's enough to warn people that I have an elder to protect me.

I've bought new clothes... you won't complain now, will you?

May I come in?

What a face! She looks like a film heroine!

Now what's the name of the heroine she resembles... the No. 1!

Sit down, Abdul.

Is this a hospital or your in-laws' place?

Shut up!

Have some milk. - This is my friend, Bajrangi.

I ply the rickshaw for the film stars. But your face...

I'll fetch some tea for you. - Great!

What news, Abdul? - There's tight security in the city.

The police have made our lives miserable.

Sultan is away in Sultanpur and will stay put.

The rest of the gang has dispersed.

Sultan says that till such time as you and the situation improve...

you must stay underground. ...Stay here, I mean.

Where's the contraband?

It's someone else's property. I've stashed it away.

Send Bajrangi over if you have some important news, Abdul.

You need not take the risk. ...Go on.

I'll pay you later for this. - Later?

Let's see the dough, lady! Pay up and take it away!

Wait, Sapna... my child!

I'm ashamed at how I behaved with you this morning!

Forgive me... please!

Only I know how I've brought up a girl who had no parents!

Forgive me, just this once!

You want money, don't you?

I've spoken to this gentleman to lend you a thousand Rupees.

He has agreed.

You can work hard and repay him.

You want a thousand Rupees, right? - Yes.

I want to borrow it... I'll repay you in installments.

Your uncle is a gentleman.

Here's your reward.

As for you, you can have one, two... five thousand. Any amount.

I only want a thousand.

What are you doing?! Let me go! Uncle!

Don't be angry, baby.

Your uncle has sold you to me for a bottle of whisky!

Let me go!

Don't come closer!

Stop there!

Stop, I say!

Not any closer, I say!

Leave me alone!

Uncle!

Leave me alone... Uncle!

Let me go!

You find yourself alone, don't you?

So let's cement the relationship we are destined for.

Wipe your tears, Sapna.

Your own uncle has turned out to be evil.

But can you trust this stranger?

For a loaf of bread, the innocent Babu turned into an animal.

His new name was Badshah. A hardcore criminal...

who had nothing but contempt for the law... Badshah!

I no longer carry a burden on my conscience, Sapna.

I will leave this place right now, if you wish.

Because anyone would hate me after getting to know all this.

Anyone would go astray without someone to guide him, Badshah.

I've brought some bread for you. Have it.

I've brought it with all my love and faith.

It's thanks to your love that my wounds have begun to heal.

I'm sure, we will be happy once I have you for my wife.

We can't live only on happiness and togetherness, Badshah.

There's no bigger curse than poverty. And no bigger sorrow than hunger.
