Sucker

Killed me!

What happened? - My leg

Can't you see? - Can't you be careful?

Touch him, and I'll throw you in the cell

You're bullying him in a cop's presence?

They'll kill me... I'll take you to the hospital

You've broken my leg, fatso

Now break his leg! - Shut up. And get lost

Let's hurry, fatso. Looks like I'll have to have my leg amputated

Go straight to the hospital. Okay?

I have to pay an important payment.

It won't be good if I get late.

Here you go.

What is this?

Food and drink.

You bribe a cop? You...

It isn't a bribe. It's a gift. - Really?

That's okay then

Have a cigarette. - I prefer my brand. Charminar

I'll get you some

Leave the bag behind. Else, I know you won't return

I'll be back in a moment

As if he'd return with the bag!

A packet of Charminar, please

Thief!

Thief!

Hold it! This marriage isn't happening

I had told you

This marriage won't happen unless you pay me 2000 rupees

Please don't do that! I'll surely honor my promise

When? After they have taken the vows?

Do you take me for a fool? - Please have patience. Please!

That won't bring the money

Raj hasn't yet arrived. - I wonder what has happened

At his instance, I fixed the wedding. - Now tell me...

Are you paying me or must I take my guests back?

Big deal

The guests aren't returning

Charybdis, one can always make money. But you can't regain lost respect

Here's 2000 rupees. Wear your glasses before you count the money

What are you waiting for? Go ahead with the rituals

Hey musicians... play it up

We've bought a son-in-law. Go on

You have saved our respect today. You have bought us out, son

The day children get to buy out their parents...

this world won't exist anymore

It's God who gives, aunt. We humans are merely a premise

Sit down here

Shambhu... - Yes, brother?

Where were you yesterday? - I went to the movies

Hema Malini looked ravishing. I was just bowled over!

You were bowled over...? Mustn't you grow up?

By the time I grow up, she'll have grown old

Police...?

The bride will leave soon. And I'll go with you too

It'll be a favor to me. - Raj Bhaiyya! Khan!

Hurry up! The bride is leaving

How many names does this guy have? They call him Raj, they call him Khan

You won't understand. He's an amazing guy

He was only 4 years when the slum dwellers found him on the pavements

They're the ones who brought him up

He believes in all the religions

Which is why people from every religion have given him a name

Look at that. A temple, a mosque and a church at one place

He got them made - Why does he steal then?

May God always keep you happy

She's the darling of the colony. Look after her, son

My name is Harnam Singh, you know. I love breaking bones

What way of talking is that? - What wrong have I said?

I'm politely making him see reason - All right. Let's go.

They're getting late. Please get in

What's this, Mom? People will always meet, and they will separate

I'm going away for a few days - Where do you keep going, son?

The truth is that I can't bear to see anyone sad

And when I try to turn it into happiness,"

I have to go away for a few days. But you needn't worry

I'll be back soon. And I'll fulfill your desire as soon as I come

I'll take you to Ajmer Sharief

Till He calls me, no one can take me there

He'll call you, Ma. And you'll be amazed

Go on, son. May Allah protect you

I must leave now, Ma

Bhiku, take care of Ma. I'll pay your fees when I return

I'm ready. Let's go

How' re you guys? - Great!

That's how you ought to be. - Come on

What's this? - I've got to lock you in

Who' re they? - Strikers

Long live the Revolution. - Shut up

In this cell, I'll turn a striker and they'll become thieves

I'd rather go to my permanent cell No. 36.

You'll be happy, I'll be happy. - No. You've got to be here

Why? If you don't send me there...

I'll make life hell! - Don't create a scene

You're creating a scene. Quietly send me to cell No. 36

Do you want a lion to get into a rat hole?

Are you going in? Or aren't you? - No.

I'll force you in! - Big deal

What do you mean? - Want me to show you?

Go ahead. What will you show? - Must I?

Catch him!

What happened? - He's gone up there

Raj? He would never do that. You must surely have done something

Raj! Come down! - Never!

I asked him to send me to cell 36, but he won't agree

Make him see reason. He must respect seasoned guys

Because of people like me, he has a job

Or else, there's so much of unemployment in the country

And he says, it's cell 31 you will go to

Where do I go?

Don't I get any respect?

Yes you do. Now get down.

Since you said it, I will come down.

Good. You will get cell 36.

Should I come down? - Yes come.

Your such a good man so why do you come to this jail so often?

Your also a good man so why do you come so often?

It's my job.

It's my job too.

And your love keeps pulling me here too.

If you're transferred, I'll never come to this jail again

Why don't you do something good?

Even educated folks can't find good jobs.

And I'm illiterate. How will I find a good job?

And I have a big family, you know. A couple of hundred of elders...

brothers, sisters and children. They need provisions, and the works

And I have to steal to keep the show going. Or they'll starve

I have an idea, sir

Tell the wealthy people to take the blame for it.

I'm telling the truth. I will quit it all.

And if I come back to this jail again then you can give me the death penalty.

Why do you capture the small people.

You should capture the wealthy.

If he finds out this cash is fake, he will kill us.

If we really gave him $30,000 we would die anyways.

It's better that we finish him off first.

The bomb is put in its place right?

Yes sir.

Count it

I hope everything goes well

That's the end of him

But we must get this stuff out of Bombay

We need a new man to do the job

I know of someone, boss. But he won't agree to it

Bring him over. I'll make him agree

He'll ask for a lot of money.

We'll give him anything he asks for

He's not a small-time crook, I hope? - No way, boss

"I'm a big-time thief"

"But someone else is really the big-time thief"

"No one catches him"

"He does show up"

"He makes them dance to his tunes"

"He pulls the strings"

"He pulls every string..."

"I'm a big-time thief"

"I'm famous only for thievery"

"But he has a lot of money."

"He uses money to good effect"

"I'm king of the streets; He rules the palaces"

"I'm silver. He's Gold"

"He is forgiven every excess"

"I'm locked up, and He walks free. Is that any justice?"

"I steal because I'm poor"

"Why does He need to do it? He's rich"

"What I say is thought provoking"

"What I say is thought provoking"

"I'm a big time thief"

"I'm a big time thief"

Hey thief! Skip the racket!

So, Raj? When are you returning?

I haven't even left. And you're talking about coming back?

Looks like you guys can't do without me

It's no fun without you. - Live it up, man

What do you have for eyes, lady?

This isn't an airport for you to be racing about

Watch your tongue. - Really?

You misbehave with us and teach us good behavior?

You've ruined their earnings of a hard day.

She speaks English! - Don't you know who you're talking to?

I own these slums

Maybe you do, but don't you take a rent for that?

Shut up! For a couple of rupees of onions and potatoes...
