There were clouds over Delhi
and the North and...
-
Narayan has given
many tv interviews.
-
But he has never watched any
-
Have you never watched
your interviews on tv?
-
No.
- Why not?
-
Because I'm blind
-
Straighten the mountain, HanumanJi.
And bring your arm in the angle
-
Here's the next question.
What do you need to kill mosquitoes?
-
Baygon Spray?
Good night mosquito mats?
-
Tortoise brand incense sticks?
Or a mosquito-net?
-
Mosquitoes.
- The right answer!
-
This gentleman is our first bore!
-
Where's the Mother?
The director wants you
-
What's the program for today?
- We're shooting a music video today
-
Why're you standing here? Hurry up.
- Won't you wear some clothes first?
-
These are my clothes! I'm your
seniorprogramming executive.
-
And you're Just a cameraman.
-
Where's Topi ?
- Here's topi (cap)

Lucky thing to have found
a place like that.

Won't you say something now?
- What?
-
What a way to sing!
- Look at your father-in-law here!
-
You...?
- Yes. He's no mike-man...
-
he's a third-rate light-man!
-
Shut up, you old sonofagun!
-
You, I'm going to...

That girl had even said, "I love you"
and you had to butt in!
-
BIoody crocodile...

I've got to fix a date!

Just like you to go on

Will I marry your daughter?
- Won't you?
-
You and your daughter... stinking
noodles! Will I marry her?

Won't you marry Maggi?

In that case, I'll touch
your weak spot!
-
Try doing it...
- I will!
-
Go ahead...
- Mister...

Ask him what we're fighting for.
- You needn't interfere in this...
-
BIoody eunuch!

BIoody eunuch!
- Insolent man!
-
Will you marry Maggi or won't you?
- Lay off, bald egg!
-
You touch my weak spot?
I'm not marrying your daughter!
-
Call for you, Topi.
-
Did you call our client an eunuch?
-
Someone tickled my ribs...
I call such guys eunuchs.
-
BIoody eunuch!
-
Shut up, you dog!
- Dog?!
-
Not dog, sir...
eunuch, lay off!
-
Topi, are you marrying my daughter
or aren't you?
-
Get lost!
-
I've lost my Job!
Tell the M.D. about my weakness.
-
Get in... so what's yourproblem?
- Whenever I'm tickled...
-
BIoody eunuch!
- What did you say?
-
Stop the car! Don't leave me here!
Stop!
-
"Look back at me, my love"
-
"Come, fall in love with me"
-
"Give me love for my love;
give me a rose..."
-
"Don't you be scared"
-
"Don't you refuse me"
-
"Write your feelings
on a piece ofpaper"
-
"Look at me, my love"
-
"Come, fall in love with me"
-
"Let's lie on the hot sands,
and breathe together"
-
"On the sly, let's make love"
-
"Let's run away together"
-
"Carry me on your shoulders"
-
"Take me to a temple
on Fridays"
-
"On Saturdays, let's
go to the discotheque"
-
"Take me to watch the
The Titanic on Sunday"
-
"Look at me, my love"
-
"Come, fall in love with me"
-
"We're made for each other"
-
"The two of us are
made for each other"
-
"So what's wrong with you guys?"
-
"Why are you Iooking away, my love?"
-
"Have you grown old at heart?"
-
"You're a machine,
not a man anymore"
-
"Your insides are Ioosening"
-
"You're like a plant"
-
"Why were born at all?"
-
"In love, my love..."
-
"I've even grown a beard"
-
"You've passed out...
and we've taken a beating"
-
"Should I give away my heart,
my life is going to be ruined"
-
"Should I be a winner in life...
I'll find a thousand girls, baby"
-
"Look at me, my love"
-
"We're not going to fall in love"
-
"Come, fall in love with me"
-
Come on in, son.
-
What's today's cartoon, Papa?
- Look at this.
-
You've made a politician
out ofme?
-
I wished to see my son
as the chiefminister today.
-
ChiefMinister?
You must've been dreaming.
-
Oh no. I showed your horoscope to
the astrologer today. He was amazed.
-
He said he had seen a horoscope
like yours, eighty years ago.
-
Only Lal Bahadur Shastri
had as good a horoscope.
-
Well? You're going to
be a Ieader, are you?
-
I'd have been happy ifyou said
I'd be a programming director...
-
or won an Olympics medal.
But you send me into politics!
-
Know what politics is?
A gutter!
-
Hurry up... it's about to go. Look!
- What happened, Mom?
-
Shiva's name will appear now.
-
Camerawork: ShivaJi Rao...
go and ring up the bride's folks!
-
Dammit! Couldn't they hold the
credits for another five minutes?
-
Your son's name appears for a second
and you kick up a fuss.
-
I thought you had seen a snake.
-
You don't know anything.
Just stay quiet.
-
You haven't paid me the
money you lost yesterday.
-
I will... sure will.
Or I'm not your son.
-
What are you doing...? What?
Why're you applying the henna?
-
Yes, I'm applying henna.
- But I'm not a kid anymore, Ma.
-
Oh sure, you're a grown up man.
-
No matter how much you grow,
you will remain my son, okay?
-
Look at those pictures
and choose a girl.
-
This one looks like Tulsi,
doesn't she? And this one's Henna!
-
I showed her yourpicture.
She said you look like Shaktiman!
-
Dad! Do I look like Shaktiman?
- I'd reason with a wife, not tv!
-
Haven't you liked her, son?
-
She's good, but something's Iacking.
- What thing?
-
That thing which makes butterflies
flutter in your stomach...
-
that which goes straight
to the heart and says,
-
"This is it! Full and final!"
- Do you feel that when...
-
you see that girl in "Hum Paanch" ?
- Hum Paanch...?
-
That idiot-box is making you
talk like an idiot
-
Keep out of this! You're always
interfering like a commercial break!
-
Tell me what kind of a girl
you want. I'll find her for you.
-
With hair like the clouds...
-
her eyes like that of a fish...
-
rosy lips...
-
a nose like that of a parrot...
-
a slender neck
like a pea-hen's...
-
and tender hands
like a lotus...
-
that would be something.
- A girl like this?
-
You mustn't go Iooking for a bride
for him! You'll bring home anything!
-
Is this any girl? It's a witch!
- Just what you were before marriage
-
And how were you to look at?
- I...? I was...
-
He Iooked like a perfect cartoon!
-
You take my place?
Lucky guy
-
Hello and welcome to Phulgaon
-
As you can see,
it's a Iovely place...
-
and our ChiefMinister Mr Balram
Chavan is paying a visit here today
-
On behalf on Q-tv, your
favourite anchor-person Urmila
-
Long live the ChiefMinister!
-
Long live the ChiefMinister!
-
Don't bow. This garland is meant for
Dr Ambedkar's bust, not you.
-
What kind of Chief Secretary are
you? You ought to have told me!
-
C.M., my foot! IIIiterate ass!
-
I typed out the whole
program for him.
-
Is the Minister distributing dhotis?
- He might snatch the one you wear!
-
Go away.
-
GIory to Babasaheb Ambedkar
-
Minister... please shake my hand!
I'm Pawar!
-
They won't let me meet you, sir!
I've been waiting for you!
-
It's I who did all the decoration!
I've been waiting for you, sir!
-
Let him go. Set him free
-
Long live, the ChiefMinister!
-
Come here.
-
I'm blessed, sir! I only wanted
to shake hands with you
-
Drive the car.
- I've been waiting all day, sir!
-
Shake hands with me, sir...
PIease, sir!
-
Thank you very much, sir!
-
Take care of the camera, Topi
-
You're getting a proper supply of
water in the village, I hope?
-
There's water everywhere, ever
since you have become the C.M.
-
When were the street Iights put up?
- Lights? It's about a year now, sir
-
He's lying!
- Who spoke?
-
I spoke
-
When were the Iights put up, dear?
- The day before yesterday.
-
Because you were expected. They
aren't even connected to electricity
-
This man is lying.
- Watch your tongue, girl!
-
You speak nonsense before the C.M.!
-
Calm down... don't get excited
-
What are you guys up to? The chief
of the electricity board...
-
comes from your area and so
are many other officials.
-
So what are you guys doing?
-
It isn't Just the Electricity Board.
It's that contractor...
-
I don't want to Iisten to anything.
These folks cast their votes for me.
-
And I promised them street Iights.
So why aren't they working?
-
Dada, these people have
only cast votes.
-
The local contractor
has given us money.
-
He sent 4 million
during the elections.
-
He uses up the power
for his sugar-mill.
-
He holds 5000 votes of the minority.
- AII right
-
I want electricity here immediately!
-
Have it disconnected after 2 days
-
Out ofmy way...
- Eunuch!
-
Who was it? Who said "eunuch?"
- Who used abusive Ianguage? Who?
-
Long live, the ChiefMinister!
-
This is for you. A reward
for speaking the truth
-
He Just about escaped today!
- Why did you talk nonsense?
-
Are we mad to remain silent?
- We'll even lose the electricity...
-
we have at home!
-
You're going to get
beaten up someday.
-
What sin have I committed?
To speak the truth is no sin?
-
Baggu? Do we have electricity yet?
- No.
-
That's Just what I said!
And everybody's scolding me
-
The C.M.'s circus is moving away
and you're angling for a girl!
-
Pan the camera
-
Why're we going to Phulgaon?
- To meet a flower
-
It's going to be fun then!
- Only I will meet her
-
So why am I going with you?
- To get beaten up!
-
Eunuch!
-
"The easterly winds blow..."
-
"over these paths that meander
high and low"
-
"In these paths,
let's get lost together"
-
"Let's sleep and wake up together"
-
"From my slumber, I awaken..."
-
"I discover, I have forsaken
everything, to go with you"
-
"Ifit doesn't happen now...
it'll never happen ever"
-
"You're my love.
I'm your love"
-
"Whether someone
believes it or not"
-
Who's that? Who clapped?
- I did! I'm the scarecrow!
-
Since when have you begun to speak?
- I speak only to those I like
-
Speak from where you are.
- Who are you?
-
My name is ShivaJi Rao,
son ofBhim Rao
-
I hold a diploma in
visual communication
-
I'm a cameraman with Q-TV.
-
Age: One day. I was born yesterday
when I set my eyes on you
-
I liked the girl who, without
any fear, told the C.M. the truth
-
What I dislike is that tractor
which is disturbing us
-
My favourite village
right now is Phulgaon
-
In my camera, I have
taken away yourpictures
-
What I have lost to you
is my heart
-
I have realised that you are the
most beautiful girl in the world
-
I want to know your name.
- I don't tell scarecrows my name
-
So tell me then, please
-
Hey, Iisten...
-
Did you take my pictures?
- Yes. Why ask?
-
It was a casual question
-
Wait... wait there!
-
"Let's traverse through these
high and low paths, my love..."
-
"I want to lose myself
in your Iovely embrace"
-
"Let's sleep and wake up together"
-
You can't get in here!
It's a traffic signal.
-
Get down!
-
The bus doesn't belong to you!
Why didn't you halt at the stop?
-
My sweet will. Are you getting down
now or do I give you a punch ?
-
I've my exams at 2. Had I missed
this bus, I'd have missed my exams
-
You didn't stop the bus and
you're acting smart now?
-
Aren't you getting down?
- No, I'm not!
-
You bloody... get down!
-
He's bleeding!
-
You push students like this?
Beat him up! Get him!
-
Halt the bus! The students
are going to beat me up!
-
Students have assaulted
our colleague.
-
This bus isn't going any further!
Get down, everybody!
-
What's happening here?
- They beat a fellow-student...
-
we're staging a demonstration.
-
Out ofmy way... out!
-
What's happening here?
Can't you see the traffic Jam?
-
Get that bus out of there.
- Don't you know who I am?
-
A driver of the ruling party. Okay?
- Fetch the camera. Quick!
-
Arrest the students. Only then
will the bus move.
-
This driver has assaulted a student.
Till he apologises, we aren't moving
-
Park the bus somewhere. We'll
talk once the traffic is cleared
-
The bus isn't moving!
- Listen to me!
-
The bus-drivers have caused
a traffic Jam at Fountain.
-
They claim some students
assaulted them.
-
The students claim the opposite.
Nobody's Iistening to anybody
-
It's a free-for-all out here.
-
Ask the Commissioner to rush to the
spot. Or things could get worse
-
The ruling party's Ieaving...
follow him!
-
The Chief? Sir, Sakharam Shelke
was badly beaten up on duty
-
BIood is flowing like
water from a tap!
-
It's an affair for the unions now.
Talk to all the district units
-
Have transport ground to a halt
all over the state!
-
Will the cab move?
- Sure will. On your head!
-
Will this bus go to Jaslok hospital?
- Eunuch!
-
It'll go to hell!
- How much time will it take?
-
There's a traffic Jam.
Go home and go to bed! Go!
-
Eunuch!
- Whom did you call an eunuch?
-
Why must you drivers
do such injustice?
-
My daughter's 32.
She's supposed to get married today
-
The bridegroom is waiting for her
and here she is
-
The auspicious time's slipping away
-
They'll go away, ifwe
don't get there on time
-
With folded hands, I beg you
-
PIease do not ruin
my daughter's life
-
PIease take that bus out from there.
- Go away, don't chew on my brains!
-
What a nuisance!
I'll be late again
-
It's time for the interview.
-
I'll have to commit suicide
if I don't get this Job.
-
Brother! I beg ofyou!
Get this bus out of the way.
-
My husband's had a heart-attack.
At least let the ambulance through
-
Else, he'll die!
- I'm helpless, lady
-
I can move my bus only when
the one ahead moves
-
God! What am I to do?
-
This way, sir...
- What's the situation?
-
I'm fed ofreasoning, sir.
It's drivers versus students
-
This fight is between students
and the driver of this bus
-
Who's the driver of this bus?
- Me, sir
-
Move the bus.
- It isn't moving!
-
You drive a bus, don't you?
Get it out of there
-
Let me see how you drive
-
It's no Joke! This bus moves
over my dead body! Come on
-
Start up... he'll move.
- Go ahead! Let's see
-
Try it! My friends won't remain
silent ifyou drive it over me!
-
With my body, the whole of
Maharashtra will burn to ashes
-
Drive the bus! Go ahead
-
Where did casteism come in from?
-
A Muslim constable has run
a bus over a Hindu driver
-
We won't take it lying down!
We'll slit their throats
-
They don't know our strength!
Stop everything! Nothing moves!
-
Bring life in Maharashtra to a halt!
- Stop everything...
-
Connect me to the C.M. Pronto
-
The Commissioner wants
to talk to you
-
Go on
- The situation is very bad, sir
-
With yourpermission, I could
break their legs and lock them up
-
Hey! Don't go overboard
-
One of those drivers
belongs to my party
-
The others come from the community
which helped me get elected
-
And the students too help us
during the elections
-
Touch anyone of them, and we
will lose our support
-
We keep getting scared that
they will withdraw support...
-
and insignificant parties keep
threatening government with casteism
-
If they aren't stopped, they'll
turn the state into a graveyard
-
We must atleast use tear-gas
to disperse the mob...
-
Disperse them, will you?
Not them...
-
my government will be dispersed.
-
This chair I sit on...
-
doesn't entirely belong to me.
There's the party supporting me
-
The community is another claimant
and also those...
-
on whose money we're running this
party. Fourth come our workers.
-
Without even one of them,
this seat ofpower will collapse
-
Ifit does, I'm going to hit you
with the broken chair! Okay?
-
You must never solve such problems.
-
We ought to make an issue out
of them forpolitical reasons
-
Let them scream their lungs out
-
Once they're through, they'll be
tired, and forget everything
-
The swine!
-
Here goes your Queen.
- And the King arrives!
-
Smash everything around
-
Where're you taking the TVs?
- One for my wife and the mistress.
-
Why deprive your sis-in-law?
- I don't have a third hand, sir
-
Oh get lost
-
Why're you taking pictures?
Get lost!
-
Don't stare! I'll break your head
ifyou take my pictures!
-
They're vandalising shops and
setting vehicles on fire, sir
-
Public property is all being ruined
-
If I had to issue shooting-orders,
I'd have done it long ago
-
Let the buses be set on fire.
Let a few shops be robbed
-
I'll put together a committee
and send them over to the spot
-
Take care till then
-
What a cheapskate for a C.M. !
He can't take any decision
-
The exams must be underway.
I've lost a year...
-
Sorry, lady. He's no more.
-
He has left me all alone!
-
He has lost a lot ofblood.
- He might die
-
Any hospital around?
- It's a kilometer away
-
But how do we take him?
There's a traffic Jam
-
Take care of the camera.
I'll carry him
-
How are you, Kumar?
- Okay
-
In a Iittle while more,
you could've lost your life
-
Thank this gentleman who
brought you here on time
-
What's your name?
-
Listen! Champakali!
- What?
-
Your name is Champakali, right?
- No.
-
Is it Anarkali?
- Yuck!
-
Is it Kathakali then?
- That isn't a name
-
So what is your name?
- Why must I tell you?
-
How will I call out to you
unless I know your name?
-
You don't need to call out to me
- Lizard!
-
I'll call you a Iizard unless
you tell me your name. Lizard!
-
Go away, blind bat!
- BIind bat?
-
Yes. I'm a Iizard. You're a bat!
-
"He's lying.
- Who spoke?"
-
Here's the lover from Bombay...
-
That's me!
-
"They're lying to you"
-
"This is for you. A reward
for speaking the truth"
-
Baggu? Do we have electricity?
- No.
-
"That's Just what I'm saying.
And everybody's scolding me"
-
Nice?
- What's so nice with a crying face?
-
Does I look nice when I'm crying?
- You do
-
Listen. You see the footage for
free. At least tell me your name
-
Your film has my name.
Look it up for yourself
-
"ManJari, why did you have
talk that nonsense?"
-
In the riots that broke out,
everybody forgot the student...
-
who lay in a pool ofblood.
Such was his condition...
-
that unless he received immediate
medical attention...
-
he would have died. Under the
circumstances, our cameraman...
-
ShivaJirao, carried him on his
shoulders and took him to hospital
-
Over to the student
-
"Thank this gentleman who
brought you here on time"
-
The credit for saving
this student's life...
-
goes entirely to our
cameraman ShivaJirao
-
Bat!
- Where is it?
-
That footage on the riots you got,
every tv channel wants it
-
The telephones Just won't
stop ringing
-
You are no Ionger a cameraman.
You're a senior news-reporter
-
Don't you scream, okay...?
- AII right. Just don't finger me
-
Eunuch!
- Shut up
-
"I'm ShivaJirao,
son ofBhimrao"
-
"I'm a cameraman for QTV"
-
The bat!
-
What visuals, my friend!
- Shut up and change the channel
-
The bathing scene's entirely mine.
Only I get to see her
-
Go ahead. I'll move.
It's pack up for you.
-
You shameless, insolent, rascal!
-
You take pictures ofme bathing!
Give me that camera
-
What are you doing...?
One moment
-
Show me every picture you have taken
Right now!
-
Let me at least rewind it.
- You take me for an easy girl?
-
Look at this
-
Move away!
-
This is me?
- Who else?
-
Why did you take such pictures?
- You were angry the other day...
-
that I got pictures ofyou crying.
To take beautiful pictures then...
-
I've been going around with this
camera from 5 this morning
-
I'd have taken some more pictures.
But something pricked my leg
-
You heard me screaming
and everything got messed up
-
What's that?
- A thorn
-
Not a thorn! A bite!
-
A snake bite
- Snake...?
-
I'm going to die!
A snake has bitten me!
-
In your village, when
a snake bites someone...
-
don't they suck out the venom?
- There you go again
-
How could you not realise
that a snake had bitten you?
-
You escaped because it
was not a venomous snake
-
What ifit were venomous?
- To see you happy...
-
I can do anything.
- Anything?
-
No.
- I knew it
-
Should you ask, I'd say
I can do anything for you
-
Ifyou ask if I could lay down
my life for, I'd say "Sorry..."
-
"Not life. Because I intend to
live with you all my life"
-
ManJari, you spoke without
any fear before the C.M.
-
So tell me how you feel about me
-
"Ask me not..."
-
"it's for you to understand..."
-
"why my ears are brimming with tears
and why my bangles tinkle"
-
Your tears tell me how you feel.
-
Give me a smile... smile
-
Smile, or I'll shoot
your crying face again
-
Smile
-
A proper smile
-
You were better off crying.
Smile, I say
-
A ghost!
-
Give me a pose.
And don't move
-
"You're sweet at times"
-
"And sour"
-
"But I love you as you are"
-
"You seem to be a liar at times"
-
"And truthful too"
-
"But I love you as you are"
-
"I feel like touching you,
to make sure..."
-
"ifyou're for real,
or are you a dream"
-
"Whatever I am,
I belong to you"
-
"Believe me, my love"
-
"You are the cloudburst oflove"
-
"You are the kohl in my eyes"
-
"I go where you go..."
-
"In you, lies my life"
-
"A pea-hen you look like"
-
"You have stolen my heart"
-
"What name am I to give you?"
-
"Just give me the hint, my love,
and I'd rush to you"
-
"My beauty is all for you"
-
"Give them all up"
-
"Break every tie
and come to me"
-
"Let's live together in
each other's heart"
-
"You're sweet at times"
-
"And sour"
-
"You seem to be a liar at times"
-
"And truthful too"
-
"But I love you as you are"
-
The camera's rolling.
Give it a smile. Don't be shy
-
What happened, ManJari?
Why're you running away?
-
Can you tell me what's happening ?
- Can you tell me who you are?
-
I'm her father.
- Father-in-law!
-
Not father-in-law. Father.
- What a daughter you have!
-
She's great!
Let's shake hands on that!
-
I'm no Congress!
-
Kalu! Balu! Harya!
Come here quick!
-
This chap was harassing ManJari.
What are we to do with him?
-
I could break his limbs and
throw him in the lake
-
You wear short-pants
and bother our girl?
-
Watch it. I'm going to
be your brother-in-law.
-
The name is Kalluram.
- Whatever it is, cool down
-
Use too much ofEnglish and
I'll throw a punch at you!
-
Eunuch!
- What...? Shut up!
-
Sorry, my weakness...
but I wasn't wrong, was I?
-
What's the tension for...
-
Guests are like God, okay?
So park yourself there. Go on
-
Look, father-in-law...
- I'm not your father-in-law
-
I'm in love with your daughter.
I wish to marry her
-
What do I lack? I'm earning man.
I can even sing and dance.
-
Ask Topi, ifyou wish.
- Oh yes... here goes!
-
"I was walking on the path...
enjoying a snack"
-
"I was romancing the girl"
-
"You got Jealous...
so what can I do?"
-
I know a bit ofKarate too
-
This Bruce Lee will now break
this coconut with his bare hands
-
No.
- Oh yes. Give him a big hand!
-
You land me in the soup, Topi?
- Drag the old man into it
-
I'll fix you!
-
Watch the coconut break into to
-
The next item! He'll stop
a moving truck with his teeth
-
What?
- Not now... He's fasting today
-
So kids, what do you think of
your brother-in-law?
-
And what do you think, grandma?
-
You have it made!
-
Who are you?
- Do you watch tv?
-
I only tend to my fields.
-
I was the one who saved a student
in the riots that broke out recently
-
I saw it on tv!
- He saw it
-
What do you do for a Iiving?
- I used to be a cameraman earlier
-
I'm now a senior news-reporter.
- Is it a Government employ?
-
No. It's private.
- I want Government service
-
You can't get a Job in the
government. You're over-age
-
Stop Joking. I want my son-in-law
to be in the government's employ
-
What's wrong with my Job?
I get a salary of 15,000...
-
with all the perks.
It's Just like a government Job
-
I want him to be a government servant
-
These tv channels close down
every other day
-
Even if the salary is
Just a thousand rupees...
-
I want someone
who has a government Job
-
Only then will my daughter
be secure and happy
-
Go and find a Job like that.
We'll discuss this later
-
Where do you disappear? I kept
Iooking for you all week-end
-
We went to see the Iizard.
- Lizard?
-
He's kidding, sir.
- You weren't around this morning
-
I went to the employment-exchange
for my wedding, sir
-
Employment exchange for your wedding?
- Yes, sir
-
I don't understand
- For a husband's Job, sir
-
Shall we talk business?
- Sure
-
You've got to interview
a very important man
-
Who?
-
I've never interviewed someone, sir.
- What's the big deal?
-
This is your chance. Don't let this
opportunity slip out ofyour hands
-
This is an exclusive show
for you, ShivaJi
-
And your first guest is the C.M.
-
Why is your hand trembling?
- My first interview, sir
-
That too, with the C.M.
Won't I be nervous?
-
The C.M. is no devil.
He's a human being like you and me
-
Have a natural chat with him.
As ifyou're talking to me
-
Show me what's in your bag
-
Hello! Today...
-
today's guest...
-
Our guest today...
-
Our guest needs no introduction
-
Hello, sir.
- Hello
-
You will take the interview?
- Yes, sir
-
What's your name?
- ShivaJirao
-
Hello! Our guest today
needs no introduction
-
The whole world knows him,
as do you and me
-
Come election time, the public
casts its vote in the hope...
-
that the chiefminister
will solve theirproblems
-
And every time, they meet with
disappointment and betrayal
-
Just as what is happening
in your rule. Why, sir?
-
Looks like you don't
step out ofyour studio
-
Today, every family in Maharashtra
has a color tv...
-
and every village a dish antenna.
There are telephone booths
-
in every corner.
They have the Internet
-
Every man has a car for himself.
Every man wears proper shoes...
-
a watch, goes to amusement parks
and trendy eateries
-
Such is the level to which
standard ofliving has risen
-
I can safely conclude that
in the last 15 years...
-
there hasn't been a single
starvation death
-
Farmers don't get two square meals,
let alone a MacDonald burger
-
No worker moves around in cars.
He Iabours in the hot sun
-
The rich are getting richer.
And the poor are out on the streets
-
Our city happens to have
the world's Iargest slum, sir
-
People still face hardships in
crowded buses and trains
-
They still spend hours in long
queues, for their rations
-
Children still beg
at traffic signals
-
People will always point fingers.
Do you know?
-
Ever since I have taken over
as ChiefMinister...
-
the Iiteracy rate in the state
has risen to 64.8 per cent
-
Kerala and Mizoram have a
90 per cent Iiteracy rate
-
Maharashtra's No. 1 in
industry and business
-
Even in crime, it's the No One
- There are Just 35.8 per cent...
-
people, under the poverty line.
- In PunJab, it's 11.7per cent
-
And an average man's income
in the villages...
-
is still a measly 3 rupees per day.
-
Get your figures right first...
before you talk to me.
-
This is the World Economic
Forum's report...
-
and this is the World Bank's report.
-
The World Bank claims that the
loan it gave your government...
-
did not reach the public.
Your ministers ate it all up
-
So they withdrew the next
installment ofloan
-
You don't know, son. The World
Bank had set conditions...
-
that would have mortgaged
the whole state.
-
What were the conditions, sir?
Could you tell us in clear terms?
-
I don't need to tell you.
I'll tell the people
-
The people are watching you
and hearing you.
-
So tell us why the World Bank
cancelled its installment
-
It isn't so easily explained.
It's a 1000-page document
-
There are 18 sections in all.
You will get it at the secretariat
-
Spend 15 Rupees on it and
read it out to the people
-
What's the next question?
- Before you entered politics...
-
what was your family background?
- Our was a very poor family
-
We were into farming.
- What is your salary now?
-
What?
- Your salary
-
After deductions, it should be
about 18,000 a month
-
Which means, annually,
you make 2,16,000...
-
so you mustn't have made more than
2 or 2.5 million till today
-
But you own properties
worth 5000 million.
-
Where did it come from, sir?
-
Good God! He's stripping the guy!
-
Nonsense! Ifyou want to know
about my property...
-
file a case in the court.
I'll tell the court what I possess
-
There are 1.4 million cases being
heard from the last 15 years anyway
-
Harshad Mehta's case
hasn't yet been decided
-
Those involved in the bomb-blasts
have been acquitted
-
In a rape case, when it
was time for the verdict...
-
it was already five years
since the woman had died
-
And you ask me to file a case?
-
Remember this, sir?
- I've seen it somewhere
-
It was your election manifesto
-
Yes, I remember.
I myselfhad it published.
-
We will establish a social order
devoid of crime...
-
We will strengthen
law and order in society
-
Women will be able to
move without any fear
-
Every family will be provided
electricity, water and provisions
-
Education will be provided.
Inflation will disappear...
-
and happy days will be here again
Instead of "here again"...
-
they published "will disappear"
and I myselfhad it corrected
-
Has all this happened?
- Hasn't it?
-
You speak of strengthening
law and order
-
But you are the one who
destroys the law
-
You are the one who
encourages casteism
-
Are you trying to provoke me
by saying things like that?
-
Not at all. I only want people
to know the truth
-
Take a look
-
"Have life in the state
brought to a halt"
-
"Run the bus over me and you think
my friends will remain silent?"
-
"The whole ofMaharashtra will
go up in flames with me"
-
A bus-driver brought the whole
city to a grinding halt
-
When questioned, he said he
belonged to the ruling party
-
Another driver threatened
communal violence
-
The Commissioner of
Police could do nothing...
-
because you wouldn't let him act.
To protect your vote-bank...
-
you let the whole ofMaharashtra
go up in flames
-
Property worth 2500 million
was razed to ashes...
-
owing to your silence.
Vehicles were set ablaze...
-
several people were injured
and killed... all because ofyou
-
You did not permit anyone
to take any action
-
Because you did not want to lose
your chair. Isn't that true?
-
He's trapped!
-
You are making baseless allegations
to sensationalize this interview
-
I have proof
-
One of those drivers
belongs to my party
-
The others come from the caste
that helped me win the elections
-
And the students too help us
during the elections
-
If anyone of them is touched,
we'll lose their support
-
Let them scream their lungs out
-
They'll soon get tired
and forget the whole thing
-
Let buses be set on fire.
Let shops be plundered
-
I'll put together a committee...
-
Well, sir? You value your chair
more than the public. Isn't it?
-
Speak
-
What happened?
- He's giving him a bath
-
Speak up! The cat got your tongue?
-
Switch off the camera
-
I'll have you hacked
-
Butcher!
-
Ask him to switch it off
-
Stop it! Switch it off!
-
You sonofagun...
-
Can't you hear me?
Stop this bloody farce!
-
Cut it, or I'll burn
everything to ashes!
-
Aim the camera at the control room.
So let me deal with this charlie
-
He's coming here with the camera!
- Stop it!
-
Put that slipper down.
This isn't the state assembly
-
Why aren't they switching it off?
- It's a live telecast, you idiot!
-
Like the Cricket matches!
The whole nation is watching
-
Can they see me, too?
- Yes. And your filthy slipper too
-
And this guy wants to be
member ofparliament!
-
Welcome, sir... this way.
Show me your slipper, please
-
Where was the slipper from?
Kolhapur or Lucknow?
-
Dada, enough of the interview.
Shall we go?
-
The interview's over, isn't it?
Jai Hind
-
It's a live telecast
and people are watching
-
People still haven't got
the answers. PIease sit down
-
A nice work of dubbing
-
You had someone with my voice
talk any nonsense...
-
to instigate the people against me
-
I don't consider it necessary
to answer such questions
-
I have personally shot
this footage, sir
-
How much has the opposition
paid you for this Job?
-
How much would you pay if
you were in the opposition?
-
You ask me any silly question
on satellite tv...
-
and expect me to answer you?
Why must I?
-
It's your duty to give answers.
800 million people have elected you
-
Do you know who a ChiefMinister is?
-
Have you ever been to
the C.M.'s office?
-
Do you know what it's
like to be in there?
-
You ought to see how many
people come calling every day
-
People who cry, who ask questions,
who thank me, seek my blessings
-
Some garland me,
some abuse me!
-
Do you know the things
I put up with?
-
Only someone who occupies
the C.M.'s chair will know
-
In a riot or emergency...
-
I don't get carried away and
take impulsive decisions
-
I get to the root of the problem
and solve it
-
I don't ask silly questions.
Just what I did that day
-
You did nothing that day, sir.
What you could have solved...
-
you let it get even more complicated
for your own benefit
-
And you Justify yourselfhere?
-
PIay with fire
and you will burn
-
You don't understand !
-
You will know,
when you play with fire
-
For a day, Just one day...
become the C.M.
-
You will know where it hurts.
-
That isn't the answer
to my question, sir.
-
What you say makes
for a good argument
-
But it is not practical.
- It's absolutely practical
-
There is a provision for it
in our Constitution
-
We'll only have to pass a
minor ordinance. That's all
-
24 hours makes no difference.
- You're Joking, sir
-
You're the one who's Joking.
Occupy my chair for a day...
-
and you will know
what fires I burn in
-
What a crown of thorns
I wear on my head!
-
You will realise how many got
Iiteracy and were rid ofpoverty
-
You must sit here then and
I will ask you questions
-
In this very program.
Do you agree?
-
What's the C.M. up to?
- He's playing a one-day game.
-
With the C.M.'s chair.
Ever since he has been to Bihar...
-
he keeps talking nonsense
-
No, sir. That's yourJob.
Not mine
-
Well? Run out of steam already?
-
You reporters are like dogs,
barking after cars
-
The moment the car halts, you run
with the tail between your legs
-
Well? Would you like
to be C.M. for a day?
-
It's a live telecast, my boy.
Everybody's watching. Answer me
-
Take it! Say yes!
-
Shall we end the interview?
-
AII right, sir. Ifit
is possible, I'm willing
-
I will occupy your chair for a day
-
The C.M. is trapped!
He took this for a party meeting!
-
Good thing, too. I'll get to work
with an educated C.M. for a day
-
AII right then
-
Jai Hind
-
Come on
-
You gave it to him
-
Calm down... peace
-
Mr Chavan is growing senile
-
He invited that guy to
become the C.M. for a day
-
Now tell us if there is provision
for this stupidity in the law?
-
There is. When assembly
is not in session...
-
this can be done by
passing an ordinance
-
There is a precedent for this.
- What precedent?
-
Someone in Bihar was made a chief
minister overnight recently
-
And this is what happened when the
ChiefMinister ofAndhra Pradesh...
-
went abroad for a bypass surgery.
- When a Ieader in Delhi died...
-
her son was made the Prime Minister.
- Does he have the right, however?
-
Neither is he dead nor is he ailing.
He only spoke nonsense on tv
-
Not so much ofEnglish.
Just tell me if this is possible
-
It's possible, sir. You can
use your discretionary powers...
-
and do it through
a gazetted order
-
You can't make an idiot the C.M. !
-
For that matter, we can't go
around drinking poison, can we?
-
He's right! AII this is nonsense
-
You don't know politics. That guy
showed on public television...
-
that the Commissioner did not
take any action because ofme
-
Had I admitted it publicly
that he was following my orders...
-
not only would I have
been beaten up...
-
but the next time I went seeking
votes, the electorate would beat me
-
So I had to be one-up on him.
- That's okay, sir...
-
but what ifhe does something
seriously wrong for us?
-
He can do nothing! Till he gets
to know the duties of a C.M...
-
his day will be over. It will
be good for my public image
-
"BalraJ Chavan kicks his
post to defy allegations"
-
People will get to know how easy
it is to make allegations...
-
and how difficult it is
to rule a state
-
You know best. It has to be right,
ifyou insist
-
Here's my resignation, Governor
-
And here's the Ietter of support,
signed by 188 M.L.A's...
-
to make Mr ShivaJirao the C.M.
for a day
-
I, ShivaJirao, take the oath...
-
that I will discharge my duties
as the C.M. ofMaharashtra...
-
to the best ofmy abilities
-
By becoming the C.M. for a day...
-
ShivaJirao creates history
in Indian politics
-
To cover the event we have the
media from all over the world
-
So let's meet our new C.M.
-
Even Junior officers
arrive in a Toyota.
-
And the C.M. comes in a rickshaw?
Looks like the country has a future
-
From being an ordinary tv reporter
to the C.M. ?
-
I'll talk tomorrow.
Let me work today
-
You score today
-
Immediately call heads of all
administrative departments
-
This is an officer from the '84...
- No time for introductions, sorry
-
We have everything, and yet we are
counted among the backward countries
-
There are three reasons
-
One, those who don't discharge
their duties with honesty
-
Two, those who do not let
others work with honesty
-
Third are those who abuse
theirposition and power
-
Everyone involved in shady deals
either indulges in sycophancy...
-
flexes muscles,
bribes his way out...
-
orparts with a portion ofhis
ill-gotten wealth to go scotfree
-
From the peons to the officers,
you have all become corrupt
-
There are thousands of complaints
against such officers...
-
but no action is taken. They end up
in dust-gathering files
-
I want you to move heaven and
earth to dig up all those files
-
Make telephone calls or
fly around the state
-
In one hour, I want all those files
-
If someone takes ill...
I'll personally open a file for him!
-
What are we going to do
with the files?
-
We're going to suspend them all
-
You have scored a sixer
-
Have you come to the slums to
distribute foodgrains and clothes?
-
I don't think we should have
any slums in the country
-
The Government built
houses for you, right?
-
Yes, sir.
- So why're you Iiving here?
-
Where else will we go? For 2000
families, they give 20 buildings
-
How many of us can live in there?
- Who's Director of SIum Board?
-
He was around... come here.
Don't hide
-
How many buildings allotted to them?
- 1680, sir
-
They claim it was Just 20.
What about the rest?
-
You must've given them away
to the ministers, right?
-
From the land allotted for
these slum-dwellers...
-
halfis swallowed by politicians.
As for the rest of the houses...
-
75per cent are taken over by
employees of the housing boards...
-
and party members. This gentleman
must have 25 of them, right?
-
If there is anything still
remaining, these folks get it
-
And they're smart guys too.
They rent out the flats they get...
-
and move over to start new slums.
- Tukaram got a flat too, sir
-
He has rented it out to a Sikh
for 2000 Rupees
-
Why didn't you take any action
when you know the truth?
-
You know how ministers...
- Forget the ministers
-
Why didn't you do your duty?
-
Has the typewriter arrived.
-
What's your name?
- Mr...
-
Just tell us your name.
We'll do the rest
-
Type his suspension order.
- What are you doing, sir?
-
I'll die! PIease don't do that, sir!
Forgive me!
-
Stop it, sir...
-
Say something, sir...
- Sure. Type it out quickly
-
I'll be ruined, sir
-
Where were you allotted a house?
- At Shastri Nagar, sir
-
Come with me
-
Fetch the trucks and bring all
those people to Shastri Nagar...
-
who were allotted houses there
- Very well, sir
-
Fatso! Kiss yourJob good bye!
-
This is the one, sir
-
What is it?
- Where's the owner of the flat?
-
Here I am!
- What is your name?
-
I'm Tukaram. And you...?
- You're Tukaram, I'm Bill CIinton
-
He's the one who's chiefminister
of the state for a day
-
Why didn't you tell me?
Come on in, sir...
-
We aren't coming in.
You're going out
-
Why am I going out?
- This flat was allotted to Tukaram
-
And you're staying here illegally.
- I'm paying a rent!
-
Why must I vacate it?
- Ifyou don't vacate it...
-
you're going to prison.
- Prison?
-
For eight years.
- Eight years?! One moment...
-
Get your stuff, RaJinder Kaur!
Let's return to Bhatinda
-
Check all the flats.
I don't want any outsiders
-
I've brought them all, sir
- Throw out all illegal occupants
-
These folks will live here now
-
Once we're gone, ifyou rent
out your flat again...
-
and go to live in the slums,
the C.M. will imprison you.
-
Who wants to live in slums?
We're unemployed, you see
-
We rent out the flats to
manage two square meals
-
We'd be grateful to you ifyou could
give us some employment, sir
-
I have become C.M. for only a day.
-
Ifyou want me to do something
for you, you will have to change
-
Whatever you buy, from
a needle to a motorcar...
-
make sure you pay the sales tax
when you buy it
-
Sales Tax is the government's right.
On a gold-purchase of 1000 rupees...
-
4 per cent of sales tax
works out to 40 rupees
-
To save those 40 rupees, you
don't ask the seller for a bill
-
He takes advantage of that and
the entire transaction...
-
goes into his black money which
does not reach the government
-
So you must pay the sales tax.
-
For it'll increase and
reach you finally
-
Do not buy goods if the seller
does not give you a proper bill
-
Here's your bill. 440 Rupees.
- I want a proper bill
-
Me too
-
If some refuses to give you a bill,
report him to the police
-
Those shopkeepers who don't issue
bills and don't pay sales tax...
-
will have their Iicenses revoked
-
How much would sales tax amount to?
- 4 million, sir
-
How much are we paying now?
- 400,000
-
No wonder he's asking. Pay up today,
or he'll withdraw our Iicense
-
What's he up to?
- He's a moron!
-
As if the nation will progress
by recovering sales tax
-
How much is the income
from sales tax in a day?
-
For us, or the exchequer?
-
The exchequers!
- I don't know
-
So what are you the
revenue minister for?
-
What's this?
- Get him!
-
What's this?
- A magnet
-
He uses it on the customers
- How much would it weigh?
-
About 200 grams
- 200 grams in two kilos of sugar
-
How much do you cheat in a day?
Speak up, or you'll get it
-
What's this?
- The World Cup
-
Anyway you measure, you get
2.5 Iiters instead of 5
-
They're champions when
it comes to thievery, sir
-
It all works out
to 1500 Rupees a day
-
In a month then...
-
he makes more money than
a chiefminister's salary
-
You don't own the money
-
They go around the city,
picking up rags
-
They labor and slog all day
to make the money
-
What must we do with him?
- SIipper him!
-
I suggest we hand him over
to the public
-
Each one of them will
get 100 grams ofhim
-
No. We'll cancel his Iicense.
What's your name?
-
Give us the real name
or you get hit
-
What's your name?
- Satyavan
-
Conman, eh?
-
What a C.M. He takes
decisions instantly
-
Time forpublic grievances.
Between 12 noon and 1 p.m.
-
Call number...
-
I want to talk to the C.M.
- Go on.
-
I'm calling from a
public hospital in Kolhapur
-
My son is seriously ill with flu.
I've had him admitted here
-
The doctor attending to him
ought to have been here at 10.
-
But he hasn't yet turned up.
My son's body is on fire!
-
PIease do something, sir
-
Is anyone in the hospital
around? Put him on the line
-
This is the Ward Boy, Vithal
- When will the doctor arrive?
-
Any moment, he should be here.
- Is he always so late?
-
He has his own dispensary, you see.
-
Once he has finished his work there,
he'll come here
-
What's the name of the doctor?
- I.K. Gadgil
-
You'll soon receive a fax.
-
Give it to the doctor and
tell him he has been suspended.
-
He mustn't come to the hospital
again. Let him look after his clinic
-
Who are you, sir?
-
Have another doctor attend
to the child immediately
-
This is Sakubai from Nagpur, sir.
We collected every penny...
-
and bought a scooter for my husband
so he could go to work
-
The scooter has been stolen.
It's a month...
-
since we Iodged a police complaint.
But nobody takes any action
-
When we talk to the inspector,
he uses foul Ianguage
-
PIease do something, sir.
- Is the complaint in your name?
-
My husband's name. Atmaram
-
Sir, this is Atmaram here.
- Go on
-
I had a Iodged a complaint when my
scooter was stolen lost last month
-
So...?
- Any news?
-
People lose huge cars and vans
and there's no trace of them.
-
So what's your scooter worth?
- What is your name?
-
Uday Mohite
-
What will you do with my name?
Big man, eh?
-
You will complain to the D.S.P. ?
-
You'll get nothing,
no matter whom you complain to.
-
Your scooter was opened up and sold.
Go and find it!
-
Is your fax machine on?
- What is it to you?
-
Nothing to me. You have been
sent a suspension order.
-
Check out ifit's okay,
or I'll send it again
-
Who are you, sir?
-
From Thane. An urgent call, sir.
- What is it?
-
Someone wants to give you...
- What's that?
-
Lizard! What mischiefis this?
-
Bravo, bat! Great Job you're doing.
Keep it up!
-
Are you watching tv?
- Yes
-
What shirt have you worn?
You'd look great in a blue shirt
-
A blue shirt...?
AII right. Hang up now
-
A blue-shirt for the C.M.
-
Is the C.M. there?
- Yes?
-
I'm calling from
A.M. Women's College, sir
-
Problems of eve-teasing have
crossed their Iimits, sir
-
Thugs from a nearby colony
are always harassing girls here
-
This is an everyday problem, sir.
- Which is the police station around?
-
Despite all the complaints the
police are afraid to take any action
-
Stay there. We're coming over
-
Have the area inspector
Hurry up
-
If only you had taken some action.
- Back off... move!
-
Who called me...?
- I did
-
What happened to that girl?
- Those thugs dragged her...
-
she was hurt on the head and
had to be rushed to hospital
-
Follow this up, Mr Bansal
-
What the hell are you doing when
there are so many complaints?
-
It's a small accident, sir...
- He's lying!
-
Quiet. I'm talking to him.
- You talk.
-
There are a handful of thugs
in the slums nearby.
-
Their Ieader is Ranga,
a political murderer
-
He has the support of
some political Ieaders
-
So nobody says anything to them.
They walk the streets like mad dogs
-
They make obscene gestures,
grab any girl's hand...
-
pat us on our back-sides...
even reach for our breasts
-
Aren't you ashamed? What do
you take a salary for?
-
We can't go into that area.
-
An inspector once went there
to catch him.
-
And they hung his head in the square.
- Don't you have a gun?
-
What sort of a cop are you?
-
I didn't have the
Commissioner's permission
-
The Minister asked me
not to act, sir
-
You are all thieves!
-
Include every name in the list.
Don't spare anyone
-
Where does Ranga live?
- There, on the hillock
-
Ranga, I've seen
those slums somewhere
-
It's our area.
They're showing it on tv
-
Look at him! Isn't he the C.M.
for the day...?
-
It's him, all right.
-
Whose room is he getting into?
- Yours
-
Come to interview me, have you?
-
Get some make-up done first
-
You'll take my pictures?
-
It's like Matrix 2
-
Kneel down
-
Women are like my sisters
- Louder!
-
How much have we collected
from sales tax, Bansal?
-
No one could have made more
in a day. 2500 million
-
Invest the whole money in an
employment scheme for the poor
-
The more capable they are,
the betterJobs they'll land
-
Is my list ready, Mr Bansal?
- Yes, sir. A huge pile
-
Districtwise, talukawise, it tells
of everyone who became a millionaire
-
This one's of those who don't
do their duty honesty
-
These guys interfere with
others' functions
-
And those are the guys
who abuse theirpower
-
In all, there are 45,518 people
-
Suspend all of them
-
It'll be midnight by the time
you sign so many suspension orders
-
So issue an omnibus order.
Put it on the internet
-
Like results of exams, have the
list displayed on notice boards
-
I'll give the Collectors the
orders to suspend them
-
There are some Collectors too.
- You sign their suspension orders
-
Ifyour name also figures in this,
I'll put my signature on it
-
I have a tongue that wags, sir.
But my hands are clean
-
How can they muster the courage
to indulge in such things?
-
From the Ministers, sir.
They share the spoils too
-
Which ministers?
- Which one isn't?
-
Food, finance, PWD...
12 departments in all
-
What do we do with these tomcats?
- Put them in a cage
-
So do it
-
ShivaJirao, down down!
-
Move
-
It had to happen
-
The police have arrived
-
I have evidence of corruption
against 12 ofyour ministers
-
I'm sorry, but I have no other
option except to arrest them
-
One punch from me and
you'll spin like a top!
-
Call them over
-
Touch anyone, and
I'll break your hands!
-
Not as easy to do that.
The scribes are all watching
-
PIease ask them to cooperate
-
Why're you guys coming in?
-
Break the door
-
I was here to pee
-
What've you done, Mr Chavan?
- Go away
-
I've achieved nothing in a day,
nor have I served the people
-
I did only what a chiefminister
ought to do
-
Had you done as much
in the last five years...
-
our state would have
made great progress
-
Thank you very much
-
Your day as the C.M. is over.
You may go now
-
I have 5 minutes to go.
And one last thing to do
-
You are at the root of
your minister's corruption
-
You play an important role
in their corrupt practices
-
Hence, I arrest you too
-
This tomcat wasn't in our list!
-
Stop being childish.
You don't know the law
-
The ChiefMinister isn't a drunkard
you can lock up at will
-
You need the Governor's
approval for that
-
You need the Supreme Court's orders.
There are so many other formalities
-
I'm sorry, but I'm
the C.M. right now
-
You're a common man
-
Arrest him
-
Your good times have begun
-
Do you have anything to say?
-
Are the allegations true?
-
The day he's released,
he'll finish me
-
The Iawyers are here
-
Lawyers
-
Useless! When will you get me out
of this? Tomorrow they'llJail me
-
Do something, quick!
- Bail has been arranged. Just sign
-
We're going to the magistrate
to get hold of a bail order
-
I want the courts to stay
on all his orders
-
I'll pass an ordinance to render
the orders null and void
-
May we leave now?
- Run
-
Hey Bansal...
- BIoody fix!
-
Are you trying to hide?
- No sir. I was Just standing aside
-
Come here.
- I can't bear to see you like this
-
I Just stood in a corner and I wept.
- Melodrama isn't working with me
-
Taught him the ropes, didn't you?
- I swear by your chair!
-
You made him the ChiefMinister.
Mine is Just a Job
-
To be with the ChiefMinister.
I was Just putting on a charade
-
Had he been uneducated, he wouldn't
have known a thing. It turns out...
-
he happens to be educated. Worse, he
has brains. In one day, he go it
-
Don't play this game with me.
Tomorrow morning...
-
I'm the ChiefMinister again.
- No! Forgive me! I have children
-
I could have acid thrown on his face
-
Forget it. I'll let him be.
- He raises his voice against you
-
Something ought to be done!
Shall I break his bones?
-
You'd break the arms of a man
who scratched you. He slaps you
-
And you let him off?
- But I don't forgive him
-
That upstart has tainted
my 30 years in politics
-
What he has done in a day,
he ought to be feted...
-
bathed in milk, in honey,
in blood
-
What a guy! Screwed 45,500 of them
in Just a day
-
The Janitor! Our invisible man!
Has ShivaJi Rao done it to you?
-
Can I get a soda?
- Had one too many last night?
-
Here you are
-
Ifhe becomes prime minister,
he will fix everyone in no time
-
Our ChiefMinister for a day!
ShivaJi Rao
-
What happened?
- I fell in muck
-
What use is soda?
- There's no water
-
No water in your shop? He cleans up
all ofMaharashtra in a day
-
He must be cleaned up in a minute
-
ShivaJi Rao is here!
- My lion!
-
My maned lion!
PIay the music!
-
Put him down.
Don't give my baby the evil eye
-
Come on, take some photos
-
Come on, marry me.
- What...?
-
For a day
-
He's too busy. I'm available.
So what d'you think?
-
The chiefminister!
- It's ShivaJi Rao
-
Greetings, Mr Minister.
- I'm no minister
-
Quiet
-
Son, hold out your bowl.
- Bowl...?
-
Your shirt.
- What for?
-
For a gift ofpaddy.
- I don't understand
-
Wiping out the middlemen between
the peasants and the government...
-
was a great favour forpeasants.
Now we can sell directly...
-
to the government. After expenses,
we'll make 5000 more to a ton
-
Every year, we make the first
offering of ourpaddy to The Gods
-
You are our God now
-
Yes son
-
No, that's talking too big.
PIease don't talk like this
-
We give from the heart. Accept it.
- Accept it, please
-
What will I do with this paddy?
PIease make an offering to God
-
Take it, please
-
For the love, the respect you have
given me, I accept this
-
I travel so far for my ManJari,
and you're going away from me?
-
What happened?
Tell me
-
With the gift ofpaddy they make you
a God. But what have I to give you?
-
Life is most precious, but my life
I shall not give up. Because...
-
I want to spend a Iifetime with you.
And for a woman...
-
there's something even more precious
than life. Her honour
-
I give you all that is mine.
- ManJari, have you gone mad?
-
I have nothing more to give you
-
I want nothing.
The trust you repose in me...
-
is more than enough for me
-
"Let's take the ups and downs
oflife together, my love"
-
"Let me lose myself
in those arms I love"
-
"Let me awake, let me sleep
in your arms"
-
"I have crossed the Iimits"
-
"Whatever anyone might say,
I'm in love"
-
"It's now..."
-
"or never"
-
"Make love to me, sweetheart"
-
"Let love poison me..."
-
"like a scorpion"
-
"Let me carry you away
in my dreams"
-
"Let me hide you away
from the whole world"
-
"I follow you"
-
"I belong at your feet"
-
"And when I close my eyes,
take me in your arms"
-
"It's now..."
-
"or never"
-
"Make love to me, sweetheart"
-
"Let love poison me..."
-
"like a scorpion"
-
"Let's take the ups and downs
oflife together, my love"
-
"Let me lose myself
in those arms I love"
-
"Let me awake, let me sleep
in your arms"
-
"When the heart is on fire,
who can sleep?"
-
"Memories ofyou
invade my slumber"
-
"The moon and the stars..."
-
"have travelled with us..."
-
"for Iifetimes,
they have witnessed our love"
-
"It's now..."
-
"or never"
-
"Make love to me, sweetheart"
-
"Let love poison me..."
-
"like a scorpion"
-
"Let's take the ups and downs
oflife together, my love"
-
"In those arms I love...
- Let me lose myself"
-
"In your arms, let me awake...
- Let me sleep"
-
Following ShivaJi Rao's exposes
of corruption...
-
by the BalraJ Chavan government,
has resulted in...
-
withdrawal of support
by Chavan's allies
-
The Chavan government has fallen.
Fresh elections have been announced
-
Look! A mouse felling an elephant
-
Whom would you like to see
as ChiefMinister?
-
When the last-timer turned out
to be a robber, we voted for Chavan
-
And he turns out to be a bigger thief.
And that bastard Mishra...
-
uses the opportunity
to bring the government down
-
Any of them will sell us out
-
None of them.
- We should have someone new
-
Give the one-day guy a permanent Job
-
ShivaJi Rao is the right man
-
Government by ShivaJi Rao
-
The only man around is ShivaJi Rao.
The rest are all like us
-
What for?
- Your name is on every lip
-
You must enter the fray
-
I have no interest in politics.
- I'm with you. Don't be afraid
-
You won't get a better chance
-
I'm a normal guy Iooking for
a normal life. 8 hours of sleep
-
The food Ma cooks,
and Papa's cartoons
-
And the freedom to do whatever
I want. Films on Sundays...
-
pav bhaJi on the beach and
my Iovely village belle
-
I have it all, all but
a government Job
-
I'm taking the civil services exams.
- The government wants you
-
And you're Iooking for
a government Job?
-
Words from ShivaJi Rao, the man
who shook up India in a day?
-
Papa finds flaws with Ma's cooking
every day, till Ma asks him to cook
-
One day, Papa enters the kitchen.
He cooks. By chance it turns out well
-
Doesn't mean he can cook every day.
Cooking isn't his Job
-
He sketches fine cartoons,
and I'm a fine reporter
-
Will you spend the rest ofyour life
asking questions on mike
-
My Job is to reflect public opinion.
- Is that enough? Won't you serve...
-
the greater good ofyour country?
- I shall, but not as a politician
-
As part of the executive.
- To hell with the executive
-
After the trailor, the public
is waiting for ShivaJi Rao...
-
to show them the real picture
after he becomes ChiefMinister
-
They wait with bated breath and
ShivaJi Rao says he wants to sleep
-
He wants to enJoy himself. What's
stopping you from enjoying all that?
-
You can still become ChiefMinister
-
Smash up the place
-
Here they come. Want to watch
a movie? Try Bandit Queen
-
Want to become the
next ChiefMinister?
-
Go on, become ChiefMinister
-
Stop him
-
What do you think ofyourselves?
-
Want some interviews?
-
Camera here
-
Come on! Want photos?
-
Here, take some photos
-
Great. CIoser to the light source
-
Eunuch!
- What did you call me?
-
Do you have running water?
- Yes
-
Why don't we have running water?
-
No electricity.
- Everyone else has electricity
-
Not a clue
-
The phone's dead too
-
Let me go and make a complaint.
- In how many departments?
-
Who are you?
- I'm from the municipal corporation
-
What is the matter?
- You have flouted rules...
-
while constructing this house.
It's a foot and 8 inches extra here
-
The commissioner's office
has ordered a demolition
-
That's how it has stood for 30 years.
What's this sudden development?
-
You haven't even served me notice.
- You were served notice. But...
-
you didn't take it. What can I do?
- When did you serve notice?
-
Is this any time...?
- Bulldozer ahead
-
You're harassing us
-
What are you doing?
-
Stop it!
- Don't do this
-
Get out ofmy way
-
Stop this
-
Let go
-
Out ofmy way
-
What's this...?
-
What happened?
- Why are you in bandages?
-
Some trouble at QTV. Minor injury.
They overdid the bandage
-
Shiva, why is this happening to us?
They stop the water
-
Then they cut electricity,
then the telephone line
-
Now they've destroyed our home,
destroyed it, Shiva
-
Don't cry.
- Retribution for your day in office
-
Take Ma inside, please
-
Come
-
Enough. They destroyed my home!
I'm not going to keep mum
-
BalraJ Chavan is behind this.
Go and get the Iawyer
-
Stop
-
You want to fight in court?
Very well, go ahead
-
1.4 million cases are pending.
Remember yourself on tv?
-
Same happens to your case too
-
Since 1947, people have moved court
against several politicians
-
Was a single scoundrel punished?
While the case is sub Judice...
-
he's free to enJoy himself,
till he dies of old age
-
Files are closed and left
for cockroaches to lay eggs on
-
You want me to clam up, Mr Bansal?
I'm from the media. I'll call in...
-
television, press. It'll blow up
in BalraJ Chavan's face
-
Forgotten what he did to QTV?
- What wrong have I done?
-
In this country, doing a good deed
is doing the worst wrong
-
AII I did was an interview,
and I was doing my Job
-
Becoming ChiefMinister for a day
was an accident. As ChiefMinister...
-
I did what a ChiefMinister
ought to do. But it's over
-
I'm back to being a common man.
Why are they still after me?
-
Who says you're a common man?
The day you took the chair...
-
you became a politician,
you belong in politics
-
Stand apart and you will be
crushed or left to rot
-
You expect BalraJ Chavan
to leave you alone?
-
Ifhe wins the elections,
he will set the police after you
-
Ifhe loses, he will set his goons
after you. he won't leave you
-
Where does this end?
- Migrate. Else enterpolitics
-
I'm not entering politics.
- Then stop cribbing about what...
-
your fault is. This is why men like
BalraJ Chavan win. In time for...
-
the fight, you hide with tails
tucked between your legs. Men...
-
like you are this country's curse.
You show them dreams. Then...
-
you say it can never be. Damn
-
Come on
-
ShivaJi Rao is up
-
No! Don't take my photos!
I'll lose my Job
-
Let me keep my Job at least
till he becomes ChiefMinister
-
You're back?
- Can't change. I'm the dog's tail
-
What have you decided?
-
To take a shit. Get that?
Move, the man wants to shit
-
Mind your manners. No one in here.
Stand back
-
Don't you see where he's headed?
- I know. Son, I'm Opposition
-
Kumar Vishal. I know you use the loo
first thing in the morning
-
I've been here since 5 am. I have
40 Iegislators waiting to sign up
-
PIease Join ourparty.
Whether it will be you or I...
-
who becomes the ChiefMinister,
we'll decide at the general meeting
-
Listen...
-
I have some pocket money for you.
It's in the car
-
Where do I keep it? 100.
- Hundred what?
-
Million.
- He's in too much of a hurry for it
-
Listen to me.
- So much for toilet politics
-
This is our misfortune! You don't
presume you're accountable for...
-
what you swallow? He's accounting
for what he has swallowed. Sit
-
Greetings, Mr ShivaJi.
- Master, not mister
-
We're from "Serve the Nation".
Join ourparty
-
You will be the next ChiefMinister.
Our Ieader has made a contribution
-
Towards your efforts. 500 million.
Just tell him you're Joining us
-
500 million? Income Tax?
- Mr Topi...
-
Yes?
- 2 million for you
-
As commission for signing him up.
- More! Thief!
-
I'm Hemant Mishra.
Ours is AIIiance Party
-
Couldn't get in through the door.
So I climbed down
-
Just like climbing down in politics.
- No problem ifyou don't wish...
-
to enterpolitics. AII you need say
is that I'm like a brother to you
-
I shall rule in your name. The sword
you wielded for a day, I shall wield
-
Every day of the year
-
Which party is that?
- Shiva, my son...
-
Come on
-
Farmers' Party
-
Son, they said on tv that
you were beaten up badly
-
ManJari started crying when she heard.
I couldn't bear to see her cry
-
So I brought her over.
- How are you?
-
Better
-
Can I talk to you in private?
-
Everyone's talking ofyou.
I was worried they might...
-
drag you into politics. Don't get
into it. It's a filthy quagmire
-
Step in, and you'll be sucked in
-
I'm not being selfish.
I tell you as a father
-
Before doing anything like that,
do spare a thought for ManJari
-
Son, I like her.
- Shiva, do what I say. Marry her
-
Let's go away from the
penumbra ofpolitics
-
Give way, Topi.
- I'm in control. I'm responsible
-
You've become a big man! D'you know
how many are waiting to see you?
-
The youth are ready to lay down
their lives since you were beaten up
-
It's "ShivaJi-ShivaJi-ShivaJi" on
every channel. AII over the world...
-
everyone's glued to tv sets waiting
for your yes or no. What say you?
-
Forgive me. I've to say nothing now.
I'm a simple man. I got beaten up
-
My home has been razed,
I'm a troubled man
-
I beg ofyou,
please leave me alone
-
Come with me
-
This is not a paid crowd, not lured
with chicken-and-booze
-
Not the ones laden on trucks.
They're here because they want to
-
Because they believe. This is
a good man, a good Ieader
-
He will give us a better future,
he will give us good governance
-
Ask any man, and he will say he wants
to become a doctor, a civil servant
-
But no man wants to become
a Ieader. Ask them
-
Everyone shuns politics, because
it's filth. But no one's willing...
-
to clean it up. They leave
the country in the hands...
-
of old hyenas, who don't even have
time to live.
-
In this country, every man aspires
for a 20,000-buckJob. And...
-
a pretty girl. Come time to retire
you expect to save up enough...
-
to buy half an acre ofland?
In the suburbs.
-
To build a 700 square feet house.
Painted yellow, and a garden...
-
to recline in the sun, while you
read the newspapers and...
-
tell your wife, "Darling, politics
is ruining this country"
-
You have no right to blame
a politician
-
Had Mahatma Gandhi cozied up at home
with his wife and kids...
-
you would've been cleaning Iatrines
in some Englishman's house
-
Had Thomas AIva Edison not left home,
would we have electricity?
-
Had Graham Bell thought like you,
would we be using telephones?
-
Before it dies, even the silkworm
uses it's spit to weave silk...
-
to be remembered by.
We're humans
-
Look at him. How is he bothered?
Who are you for him? Since 5 am...
-
he has been waiting for you.
Hey, why are you here?
-
Is this a fair?
-
My country has become lame, like me.
Make it walk
-
The headline. ShivaJi Rao of the new
party, "People's Cause"...
-
has swept the polls
with record votes
-
Every candidate has won
-
Not Just majority.
His party has won all seats
-
Be happy.
- Lizzy
-
I hope we will do together what
I tried to do in a day
-
I have appointed two ministers
to each department
-
One, an experienced elder.
The other is young and zealous
-
Laws, we have for everything,
but nothing is implemented
-
Corruption rules the roost.
No matter how much we might try...
-
governance will be an effort in vain.
We must find out what's wrong. Why?
-
We must punish the guilty, we must
correct. I've thought out a way
-
Complaint box.
- The facility already exists
-
Ifwrong is still being done, then
it's because it's out ofreach...
-
for the common man. We'll have a
separate Department of Complaints
-
It will function under
my supervision
-
Complaint boxes will be placed in
every village, at every crossroad
-
Water, electricity,
potholes on roads...
-
errant civil servants taking bribes,
including me, if I err
-
Without fear, you shall complain.
Action will be taken in 24 hours
-
No matter how big the problem,
it will be settled in a week
-
The day I find complaint boxes empty,
I'll know I've given good governance
-
The day I find complaint boxes empty,
I'll know I've given good governance
-
This upstart has ruined all
the parties in one husting
-
As long as he's in chair,
we can't do anything
-
I'm thinking ofgoing back
to the chilli trade in Kolhapur
-
Even selling chillies will get tough.
He has set sleuths after us...
-
Iooking into unaccounted incomes.
Out ofnowhere he has dug out...
-
800 cases, out of old files.
He won't rest till he sees me...
-
rotting in Jail.
Must do something about him
-
Pandu, fix him
-
Keep this.
- What is it?
-
Who knows? ShivaJi sends
-
For the village lass! Cellphone?
-
What do I do?
- Press "Okay"
-
Talk
-
That way
-
How are you ManJari?
- You still remember me?
-
Silly! How can you talk like that?
Of all the bouquets I've received...
-
I wept when I saw yours.
I'm pining to see you
-
No one can stop me. But such is the
responsibility, that I can't leave
-
I called Patil so many times.
Your father took the calls
-
And he said you weren't at home
and he hung up on me
-
That's why I sent you a cellphone.
Whenever you wish to talk, call me
-
Will you never come to see me again?
- I'm coming on Sunday
-
Sunday is 5 days and 6 nights away!
What if something happens...?
-
Daddy is Iooking for a government
employee for me. Anything from...
-
postman to a vaccine centre worker,
to an electrician, veterinarians...
-
I'm so scared.
- Don't worry. Very soon...
-
Sir, the infotech people
are waiting
-
I'll talk later, ManJari
-
I want to talk to him.
- Who's him? There's a 36 men here
-
Including me. Who do you want?
- I'm ManJari
-
You should've said so. One minute
-
Call for you.
- Who is it?
-
Lizzy.
- Say I'll call later
-
He's busy. He'll call later
-
Topi, ManJari speaking.
- Topi here, loud and clear! Howdy?
-
Bad. Get him on line.
- He's talking ITwith the Japanese
-
I'll tell him when he's free.
- Everyone says, no one does
-
Neither does he call. Ifhe won't
talk to me, why send me a phone?
-
Chiefministers are like that.
Their time isn't theirs
-
"Darling, take me"
-
"I beg ofyou..."
-
"take me to the stars"
-
"I'm playing swords"
-
"How can I play
with your love?"
-
"From the maze..."
-
"how can your beloved
rescue you?"
-
"Darling, take me"
-
"I beg ofyou..."
-
"take me to the stars"
-
"Government Job?"
-
"You're Just a king for namesake"
-
"What use are you,
ChiefMinister?"
-
"Curses on your lips,
lust in your eyes?"
-
"Why are you blushing?"
-
"How heartless you are,
why are you so selfish?"
-
"I'm praying"
-
"Now it's upto you, sweetheart"
-
"Darling, take me"
-
"I beg ofyou..."
-
"take me to the stars"
-
"Come into my heart"
-
"I'm not unfaithful"
-
"I'm not cruel"
-
"Day and night
I think ofyou"
-
"I'm peaceless,
I'm sleepless"
-
"I can't even squirm"
-
"With desire...
-
"with passion..."
-
"in my eyes...
-
"I come to you"
-
"I come unto you, my love.
Let's play hide-n-seek"
-
"Darling, take me"
-
"I beg ofyou..."
-
"take me to the stars"
-
ManJari, what's this sound?
- What sound?
-
My ears aren't ringing.
Let me have it
-
Where did this come from?
I ask you, where from?
-
Gave it to me.
- Who...?
-
He
-
He spurned you forpolitics!
And you still talk to him?
-
What have you?
- Vegetables, what else?
-
Open up
-
Sure, I'm not carrying a bomb
-
AII right, 1000 Rupees.
- 1000? What for?
-
Bringing stuffinto Mumbai
for the first time?
-
You got to pay tax to get in.
- But there's no tax on vegetables
-
Don't argue. This is private tax.
Everyone pays up
-
If I don't pay?
- The stuff doesn't go in
-
But you land in Jail.
Show yourpermit
-
Yes
-
I apologise! I made a mistake!
PIease forgive me
-
What you're doing is betrayal. For
every cent you extract as bribes...
-
traders recover in five-fold.
The result is inflation
-
Consumers are crushed.
Arrest him
-
Shoot him.
- No, take him away
-
Traffic diverted
-
I'm travelling to that village
on personal work. Why so many cars?
-
A single car is enough.
- The entourage follows you
-
So much money being spent
on my security?
-
I'm not repeating the mistakes
ofmy predecessors
-
None ofyourpredecessors were
on hit lists. You are
-
It's our duty to provide you with
complete security. You are...
-
public property. We're more worried
for your life than yourprivacy
-
You are riding car number three
-
In that case, I'm going nowhere
-
Hi ManJari, howdy? Doing fine?
-
Rule says, one foot earth,
half a foot deep pebbles
-
Two inches of asphalt, and use
the road roller five times
-
Rains keep washing this road out.
Make sure it lasts five years
-
Else, I'll flay you alive. Get it?
ShivaJi Rao rules. Remember
-
Yes Mr Public
-
That's what has become of us.
Paupers are about to flay us
-
In the land ofvirtues,
there's no evil. ShivaJi rules
-
How go these bangles?
- Great stuff. GIass, from Ferozabad
-
May bangles chime, may gold and
silver shower while ShivaJi reigns
-
No, that's nothing. Give me that.
- These?
-
Yes
-
Problem.
- What?
-
I forgot my money.
- Can I give you next time?
-
I don't even know you
-
Do you know me now?
Am I familiar?
-
ChiefMinister!
-
Don't scream
-
I'm on personal business.
PIease don't tell anyone
-
He's in Phulgaon. In disguise
-
Keep an eye on him.
I'll be there
-
Keep this.
- Thanks
-
By my mother! What an opportunity!
But not a photographer in sight
-
Will you give me an autograph?
- On what?
-
Here
-
On the beaten track
walk the cowards
-
Off the beaten track tread
the brave, the poets, our true sons
-
Coming on Sunday! Forgotten?
You keep promises you make to others
-
But ManJari means nothing to you?
-
Pest
-
Anyone at home?
- No one
-
Who says? She-ghost?
-
Where are you going?
Who are you?
-
What insolence is this?
- No insolence. I'm upto mischief
-
What mischief are you upto?
- First, I'll caress your lips
-
Then I'll bit you under the throat
-
I'll pinch your waist,
then a small rape
-
Okay, go on
-
Shameless! You've shaken me!
- Pest! With the headgear...
-
and whiskers, you think I won't
recognise you? Out with it
-
Got my girl
-
Why a get-up like this?
- ManJari, I'm Just your ShivaJi now
-
No files, no meetings, no Bansal,
no police, no Topi. I'm spending...
-
the whole day with you
-
Really? What can I do for you?
- First, I'll eat. I'm famished
-
What happened?
- I fried bread in butter oil
-
AIso porridge. But you didn't come.
I was so angry I gave it to the goat
-
Stale bread is all there is.
- That's enough
-
There's nothing more.
- I have you. What more do I need?
-
"Stale bread...
-
"Stale bread and you
is fun"
-
"Cold water and you
is intoxicating"
-
"For you, I'll do anything"
-
"I'm dying for that bosom"
-
"Goodness!
-
"How can you talk like that?
Makes my heart go dhadak-dhadak"
-
"Goodness! My heart
goes dhadak-dhadak too"
-
"Let's catch butterflies...
- And climb a tree?"
-
"What if I fall?"
-
"And get hurt?
I'll be in pain"
-
"That's passe"
-
"Just an old love story"
-
"Say something new"
-
"Love in times of affliction...
and I suffer a new sickness"
-
"Our hearts dance ta-thai-ta-thai"
-
"Goodness!
-
"How can you talk like that?
Makes my heart go dhadak-dhadak"
-
"Stale bread and you
is fun"
-
"Cold water and you
is intoxicating"
-
"ManJari, my love..."
-
"Let's go for a swim"
-
"Let's steal mangoes first"
-
"Ifyou're caught,
you'll take a thrashing"
-
"When in love,
it doesn't matter"
-
"Everything changes..."
-
"now you've had your way"
-
"Oh, what a spell
you've cast on me..."
-
"Cupid's arrow strikes
sweet pain in my heart..."
-
"makes it go dhak-dhak...
all the way from Delhi to Mumbai"
-
"Stale bread and I
am fun?"
-
"Cold water and I
am intoxicating?"
-
Two Sundays a week would be fun, no?
- You're the ChiefMinister
-
You can take any day off.
Who's there to tell you off?
-
The public is there.
I'm their servant
-
You're so-sweet.
Thanks to you...
-
your Dad is now giving the wedding
a thought. Let's get married fast
-
I didn't have yourpermission.
But saving your life is my duty
-
He's with us
-
You may come out
-
I never imagined they'd get
as far as this
-
A life in shadows ofimminent death
may be ofyour choosing, not ours
-
Ifyou still want to marry him,
tell him to give up all this...
-
and come to you like a common man.
Else, you may die a maid
-
But I can't bear
to see you a widow
-
What are you doing?
- Why, what happened?
-
I should be the one massaging
your feet. Instead...?
-
Son, I'm Just touching you to assure
myself that you're still alive
-
Let go ofmy foot, please!
- Didn't I do it when you were a kid?
-
For the sake of others, you do
so much, you live in tension
-
SIeep a while, son
-
Go to sleep
-
I was applying henna
-
May I...?
- Yes
-
Been years since I slept in your lap.
Can't I spend the rest ofmy life...
-
on your lap? No chiefministership,
no security, no tensions
-
Wouldn't it be nice ifwe could
rewind life backwards like a video?
-
What happened? Why are you crying?
- You've gone so far from us
-
I got so much to tell you,
Tell me Ma, what you want to say
-
Go on, Ma.
- What else?
-
I want to see you married.
What did ManJari's father say?
-
Nothing, he Just...
-
Papa, switch off the phone
-
It's Mr Bansal. Must be important.
- No let up
-
Signal's weak in here.
Let me step out. Hold on
-
Yes, signal's better. Go on
-
Intelligence report!
There's a bomb in your house
-
I was applying henna. May I...?
-
The henna isn't even dry
-
Dad's watch
-
Wouldn't it be nice ifwe could
rewind life backwards like a video?
-
You're taking my place?
You're lucky
-
"I ShivaJi Rao swear that..."
-
"without fear, prejudice,
favour or animosity..."
-
"I shall protect all lives"
-
Let go
-
What did my parents do to harm you?
Why did you kill them?
-
Can you bring them back?
Tell me, can you...?
-
After months, I was talking to
my parents
-
My father was massaging my feet,
Ma was painting my hand with henna
-
I Just went out to take
a telephone call
-
And...
-
There they lay in pieces,
strewn all over
-
Men bury their dead, cremate them.
I Just washed them away
-
AII because of this scoundrel,
all because ofhim
-
Do you think staying on as
chiefminister is so easy?
-
For all the antics you staged
to become the people's hero...
-
maybe someone, a terrorist,
a fundamentalist, or a politician...
-
didn't like what you did.
And he killed yourparents
-
Stop this melodrama! It's all
your doing. And I know that
-
I'm Ietting you go because
I'm helpless.
-
But the law won't spare you
-
Ruffled my hair.
Give me a comb
-
Before he sends in the law...
-
we must topple his government
-
Spark offriots, set the city afire.
There should be blasts, men must die
-
Ruin the law and order situation
-
Don't worry. Everything's organised.
We're Ieaving in five minutes
-
Goodness
-
Respected ChiefMinister,
four days ago...
-
some dangerous Iooking men are
squatting in my house. Perforce
-
They've been talking of things
like bomb blasts and riots
-
We're scared. We beg ofyou,
please take immediate steps...
-
before they do something nefarious.
I wish you well, always
-
A responsible citizen
-
Where did this Ietter come in from?
- No time for all this talk
-
Arrest Pandurang immediately
-
I told you to arrest Pandurang.
Why have you called me here?
-
Sir, when he got to know that
we're about to arrest him...
-
he got himself admitted to hospital
pretending he's ill
-
Look at him, lying like a watermelon
-
Mr Pandurang, I got to ask you
some important questions
-
I hope you will co-operate
-
Brilliant act
-
My client is suffering from
high blood pressure...
-
high blood sugar and heavy chest
pain. He cannot talk
-
Given up law for medicine?
- The medical report says that
-
What kind of treatment
is he being given?
-
Due to acute diabetes, a boil on
his leg has turned gangrenous
-
The doctors anaesthetised him
and amputated a leg
-
My leg! Where's my leg?
-
It's drying on the terrace
-
Look at this! The diabetes is acute.
- What will they do now?
-
They will amputate
the other leg
-
PIease leave.
- You get out ofhere
-
Nothing's wrong with me!
I'm perfectly fit
-
That's what every man thinks
before he dies. Look...
-
you have blood pressure,
chest pain, diabetes...
-
kidney failure, gangrene.
- You don't understand!
-
The reports are false!
I'm perfectly fit, I swear
-
Now tell us, where are the bombs?
- Which brand ofbalm? Tiger Balm?
-
Trying your hand at comedy?
Out with the truth
-
Else, you won't leave alive.
- I'm telling you the truth
-
I know nothing.
- With the false medical reports...
-
you've Ianded yourselfin a trap.
It says you got high sugar
-
No one can stop us from amputing
that leg or your arms
-
Pandu, choose one finger.
- What for...?
-
One for your leg.
- And this...?
-
For your arms.
- And that...?
-
For that other thing.
- No! Don't cut anything, please!
-
I'll tell you the truth
-
We've wired fourplaces.
The railway terminus
-
The bus terminus,
the Central Bank
-
And a blue cab
-
Take your furniture back
-
My leg's back! Praise The Lord
-
Can I go to sleep?
- In the lock-up
-
Deploy bomb-disposal squads.
Round up all the blue cabs
-
Quarantine the cabs
-
Found it?
- Not yet sir
-
Go on, sir. We'll take care ofit.
- No, it's my responsibility too
-
One second
-
Check that
-
CIear out! Fast
-
Take care ofhim
-
Not you, sir.
- Back out
-
Back out everyone
-
People are saying that
you planned the blasts...
-
to topple ShivaJi Rao's government
-
He rigs bombs, then he defuses them
himself. And he accuses me
-
Did any of the bombs go off?
In the last moment, there he was...
-
defusing them
-
The alliance between our 3parties
Ieaves him half the force he was
-
He's trying to use new ruses
to hack at our roots
-
What about the blast in his house?
- It didn't kill him, did it?
-
He sacrificed his parents at
the altar ofpublic sympathy
-
That's the kind ofman he is
-
How do you react to that, sir?
-
There will be an enquiry.
- Yourparents. Did you?
-
How come you called me here?
- It wasn't because I wanted...
-
that I have become ChiefMinister.
Nor did I squabble with you...
-
for your chair. Millions came to me,
they made me run for office
-
They made me win, hoping
I'd do some good for them
-
Now when I want to do some good,
you're coming in my way
-
Am I? You've got me sitting
at home
-
For all the money, the brains,
the manpower you will garner...
-
to topple the ruling party, had you
even spent a percentage ofit...
-
forpublic good, you'd be here,
and I'd be happy sitting at home
-
Strikes, riots, blasts, all the
time. Do I do my Job?
-
Or do I go Iooking for bombs?
- Friend, you have been after me...
-
right from the beginning. Ifyou
think I've really done anything...
-
well, you have the police, the law
is on your side. File a case
-
Investigate, appoint a commission
ofinquiry. Ifit's proved, hang me
-
I'm not stopping you, am I?
- I know very well how...
-
rogues like you play hide-n-seek
with the law
-
But as of today
you cannot escape me
-
You accept defeat so soon?
- Who has won, who has lost...
-
you'll get to know soon.
- Son, for 30 years...
-
I've experienced politics. I've chewed
up and spat out the best of them
-
If I'm here with you,
the whole world knows...
-
that here I am in this room,
all alone with you
-
You aren't getting away
with killing me
-
Ifyours has been
a 30-year experience...
-
mine has been a year's,
battling you
-
Add that to your 30,
and I have 31
-
Now I'm going to shoot. This bullet
isn't meant for you. It's for me
-
You fooled me! Scoundrel!
-
What you're saying, makes for nice
debate. But it isn't practical
-
Absolutely practical. Become Chief
Minister for a day, see for yourself
-
That was a fine interview
-
In the end, they made
a politician out ofme
-
No sir
-
He played politics
for dirty business
-
You played politics
for a good purpose
-
That too, only once.
- But I...
-
You've said nothing,
I've heard nothing
-
Look at this! He shot a good man!
How merciless
-
Was that well-put?
-
Make way
-
I was selfish for
my daughter's sake
-
But you lost yourparents
for the sake of others?
-
Now you're all alone
-
But you are a great man.
Indeed, great
-
May you be happy forever, son
