Goa 1958.

India attained freedom in 1947.

But Goa was under Portuguese rule till 1961.

This is a city of Goa, Vasco.

And this is Alberto Vasco.

He owns the maximum land here.

In a way, he is the king.

That is why this city is named after him.

And his statue is put up in the central square.

Before him, nobody had been honored thus.

That day, the scene was festive.

All the townsfolk had gathered.

Everyone was cheerful.

They were congratulating him with heartfelt wishes.

Except for one woman.

You pig!!

What do you think of yourself? May worms feed on your body!

Nobody will give you a sip of water when you die!

Forget it. We are not to go into that area!

I'll see you!

This is the statue of Alberto Vasco, the biggest land owner.

He owned more than half the city.

That is how this city was named Vasco.

When the Portuguese left Goa 20 years ago...

These big landlords left their property behind.

They grabbed everything, but it's good for us.

You'll get the kind of place you want.

Because there's no real owner.

Driver, stop the car.

I want that house.

- For the company guesthouse. - Sure. You'll get it.

Bihari, stop these hoodlums! Why are they breaking my house?

Does the house become yours if you encroach on it?

You are the tenant. Sign here and you'll get 5000 or you get nothing.

All right.

I'll meet you at the shop.

Your stool, uncle.

He went there to steal and the Eagles beat him up!

Idiot! Come on.

Jojo! Run!

The Bichhus (Scorpions) have come to thrash us!

Come on, Michael.

Hey you dog!

Didn't I say, you guys must not step into our area?

A dozen of you have ensconced yourselves here for 2 years.

Since then Vasco has had problems.

Before that, you Christians did the ball dance here!

Hey pig, have you forgotten last time's thrashing?

You escaped because Father Jacob intervened.

Remember what I said then?

This side of the ground is ours and that side is yours.

Now you must live there, and die there.

Get the buildings and homes on that side vacated.

Or I'll break your legs and place them on your hands!

Do you think I'm easy meat?

Does your father own Vasco?

Why? Didn't your mother tell you?

We are in our spirits

So be in your senses

Don't you glare at us

Let's hear that again

We're in the spirits too

You had better be in your senses

Don't you give us those dirty looks...

What did you say? ...come again

I've come across several guys like you

Just tell us what you're getting at

Go away; don't come here. And don't mess with us

Go on, get lost... Stop fibbing... we're not scared

You're ignorant. If you have the guts...

Come and face me... - You have a fight!

What do you take me for?

What did you say...? Come again

Beware... careful! You had better be careful of us

Lay off! Keep away... they're all scared of us

Stop making a noise. Come out in the open, if you want a fight

- I'm alert... - And ready

What are you worth...? Who the hell are you?

We are in the spirits...

Talk sense

We are in the spirits... - So talk sense

Don't you glare at us

What did you say...? Come again

Arrest all these boys!

Sir, what have I done? I was just arm wrestling with brother.

Sir, I said I'd drop him to Calangute on my mobike, isn't it?

Yes Sir, and I said I'd drop him in my Mercedes tempo.

So... coming pal?

That is why we thought we'd wrestle arms to decide.

See that, D'costa? Sometimes they fight, sometimes they love...

They should have been married!

The mention of marriage makes you laugh, huh?

Bichhu married to an Eagle. Where?

In prison!

Did these children fight again?

Children, Father...? These children?

Last week they broke 4 street lights, the entire vegetable market...

And Rodriques' new car.

I would handcuff them even in jail!

Why do you fight? Want to show your strength to each other?

I know you are young, full of spirit.

Instead of breaking each others' bones, make something of yourselves.

Live together like brothers.

Remember my words, life is very precious.

Once this time is lost, it will never return.

Remember my words.

Spare them this time. They are immature.

- They won't repeat this. - You're making a mistake.

They are dangerous, not immature!

Yet I spare them for your sake.

Even if you pluck a leaf from a tree, watch it!

Come on. Move!

Now all of you go away.

Get on with your jobs.

- You got into a fight again? - No father, they started it!

The dogs...!

But if they start a fight, we can't keep quiet...

This bloodshed will not help.

But they started it. We were just...

I want to see you in church.

- This Sunday? - Every Sunday.

You come in last, yet want to leave first.

It's Max' fault. It takes so long to wake him up! He's still sleeping!

- There's a jam session in college on Saturday. - So...?

- Why? - The Purple Riot Band has come from Bombay.

What happened?

Look at her hand!

May I read your palm?

You have a terrific lifeline!

And take a look at this love line...

Never seen one like this!

Solid...!

What's his name?

Okay, I'll answer that. Does his name begin with T?

- Dog! Want one? - No!

No? Of course you'll want one!

- Yes! - Then why did you say no?

Next time you flirt with my sister, you'll get thrashed!

It's going to be twelve. Let's meet the strike.

We must reach home before the twelve gongs.

But you must only count the gong. Don't tell me to turn.

- Careful! - What are you doing?

- Look ahead! - Aunt, give way!

No problems now!

Leave her and turn right!

But why did you scream?

Who screamed? I...

- You tell him... - No, you!

The brakes had failed.

But you didn't make it.

I'll go get my bike serviced.

The bike is fine. It was your mistake.

Why did you get involved with Rose Anne?

- Today is not a good day. - Rubbish! It's very special.

What's special about today?

I'm sorry, I forgot.

What little sister? We were born on the same day at the same time...

But I was born 15 seconds early.

Do you like it?

You made it yourself?

- It's not for this! - But this fits best in it.

For me?

Whether Max remembers your birthday or not, I will.

You remember it only because I too was born on the same day, same time.

...5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

One thousand and one.

Your fees for getting the house evacuated.

You may keep the one buck.

Bihari, you are great!

It looks absolutely real!

Here's your share of ...10, 10 and 5. 25000.

We do the threatening and breaking.

And this scoundrel, Bihari reaps the rewards

I say to hell with Bihari.

Why don't we do direct dealing with Chaudhary?

The idea is good but Bihari forges the property papers.

Who will do the writing for us?

Little guy!

My brother!

You rogue! You've turned stylish! Like a Bombayite!

But you are just the same.

Come on, Vasco is that way.

Mother! Come downstairs! Rahul has come back!

Chottu, get the bags out.

He looks terrific!

Then what? Whose brother is he?

I've thought of a great plan for us.

- Me too. - You say first.

We all will live in Bombay.

Life is great there.

Man's luck changes in a minute.

What is left in Vasco? Will mother agree to come to Bombay?

The guys selling the caftan made a fool out of you.

There's a hole in this.

Give it back to Rahul. He'll return it. He's going back.

- You're going back? - Not alone. All of us will go.

I'll open a big fast food restaurant.

Indian, foreign every style.

Mr. Shetty will put up the capital and my training.

In a year, I'll take you to the skies, mother!
