- The Thakur...? - Welcome, sir. This way...
-
I knew it the moment I received your letter, Thakur...
-
...that you wished to meet me.
-
I took the first available train.
-
I'm putting you to some trouble, jailer.
-
Not at all, sir. Just name it... whatever it be.
-
- I need two men. - Two?
-
Do you recognise them?
-
There's hardly a prison where they have not been held, Thakur.
-
This is Veeru. ...and this is Jai.
-
They're crooks, both of them. Thieves of the first order.
-
I know.
-
They're just what I need for the assignment at hand.
-
I can't say what assignment you have in mind, Thakur.
-
But I can surely tell you that they're good for nothing.
-
That's not true, jailer.
-
For all their vices, they have some virtues, too.
-
A fake coin is a fake, sir. Whichever way you look at it.
-
That is perhaps the difference between man and coin.
-
I clearly remember what happened two years ago.
-
I had arrested both of them in district Jamalpur.
-
We had to reach the police station at village Tamli by dusk.
-
Since no other arrangements could be made...
-
...we took a goods-train.
-
I had two constables with me. And there were these crooks...
-
...Jaidev and Veeru; chained and handcuffed.
-
Could you have been at the Daulatpur police station earlier, sir?
-
Yes, I was. Why did you ask?
-
I remember now!
-
I've been wondering where I've seen you, ever since you've caught us.
-
Remember Lalji's shop? The provision store which we robbed?
-
- Do you remember? - The provision store? No...
-
Don't you? Jai...
-
Remember, we were held at the Daulatpur police station?
-
- Daulatpur? - Yes, don't you remember?
-
- When was that? - We had robbed the grocer...
-
He was the officer then... Don't you recognise him?
-
All police officers look the same to me.
-
I can't help it, you know... He's always talking nonsense.
-
Since when have the two of you been in this racket?
-
You could say, we stood our own two feet, the moment we could!
-
But why must you do all this?
-
The reason what you're a cop for... we into it for the money.
-
Not true. I'm not a police officer just for the money.
-
I have enough of family land to keep us going.
-
But perhaps I'm fond of the dangers involved in the game.
-
We face dangers everyday, too.
-
There's a difference. I take on dangers to protect the law.
-
And you do it to break the law.
-
You need to be a brave man, in both the cases.
-
Oh sure! You do need courage.
-
I see.
-
You guys think you're very brave, don't you?
-
You will see when the need arises, Inspector.
-
We'd atleast take on 15 or 20 guys.
-
I haven't exaggerated it, have I?
-
- Now that you've already said it... - We deal with it!
-
Bandits!
-
Well, Inspector? Want to try out our guts?
-
There's still time, Inspector. Give it a thought!
-
Don't you try to escape.
-
Stop the engine, driver!
-
Let's move ahead! As fast as you can!
-
Charge ahead!
-
Give me a swig! Quick!
-
- Are you okay? - I'm all right...
-
He dares mess with Veeru!
-
They've fled, the swines!
-
Let's go... Come on!
-
I had warned you not to escape...
-
What do you think?
-
We can run away.
-
Leaving him in this state?
-
He's going to die, if we leave him in this condition.
-
Suppose we take him to the hospital...
-
...we get sent away for four or six months.
-
- So what do you suggest? - What do you think?
-
Get it out.
-
If it's Heads, we go to the hospital; if it's Tails, we escape.
-
They are criminals, no doubt. But they're terribly brave.
-
They're dangerous, because they know how to fight back.
-
They're bad... but they're human.
-
Could you find these guys for me, jailer?
-
We'll easily find them, if they are presently in some prison.
-
But if they're free, it's difficult to find such people.
-
Soorma Bhopali! You're pulling out more of the firewood.
-
Naturally. You don't expect me to put some more, do you?
-
The scale says it's enough... and you insist on more.
-
Just take the wood and get going. Give me the money...
-
Here's a 2-Rupee bill.
-
I can see that, but is it genuine? Okay, it is.
-
So then, good-bye.
-
- Won't you return my money? - Money? What money do you want?
-
- That's a two-Rupee bill! - The wood is worth 2 Rupees too!
-
Just this much of wood for two Rupees?!
-
Were you out to buy the whole forest for two bucks then?
-
Now look; I've had enough! Just get going.
-
I'm not Soorma Bhopali for nothing! Okay?
-
Get lost... I wonder where they come from!
-
He says the wood is too little! Wants the forest then, does he?!
-
They always come early every morning to spoil my day!
-
There, Chand! You're at your cursed poetry again!
-
Go and check if they're unloaded the stuff
-
Well! Well! Are you guys watching a drama here?
-
This is no travellers' bungalow... who are you guys?
-
God Almighty! It's you!
-
How are you, Soorma Bhopali?
-
I'm fine, thank you!
-
But what are you guys up to?!
-
Come here!
-
The police have declared a reward of 2000 Rupees for your arrest.
-
If someone watches us together, I'll land in trouble, too!
-
So please get going!
-
Know what, Soorma Bhopali? We want to go to prison.
-
I hope God fulfills your wish!
-
Had this been Bhopal, I'd have had you locked up in just two minutes!
-
I'm not Soorma Bhopali for nothing, you know!
-
But why would anyone need me here?
-
A warrant's out in your name in any case!
-
But we want you to have us arrested.
-
What are you talking about?!
-
There's a reward of 2000 Rupees which you will get.
-
Give us half the money, when we're released from prison.
-
- Do you get it? - What are you saying!
-
Have some betel-leaf; Go on... it's great!
-
Since when have they started having a parade here?
-
You've just arrived, sonny boy. You'll get to know soon.
-
This new jailor is a nasty one!
-
- A nasty jailor, he says. - There he is.
-
Attention, I say!
-
But they're already at attention, sir.
-
I know that.
-
Prisoners! This is a warning for you!
-
Everything that went unchecked before my arrival here...
-
...will no longer be tolerated!
-
I've been a jailor since the British days!
-
I don't belong to the breed of jailors...
-
...who waste time, trying to reform the prisoners!
-
I know it for a fact! You guys can't be reformed!
-
How can you ever change, when I have not changed?
-
I know, my words don't go down well with you.
-
Which is why I am transferred from every place I work in.
-
But despite all my transfers... I have not changed!
-
So you'd better remember!
-
Don't think I am not informed of all that you guys are up to!
-
I have spies everywhere in the prison.
-
I get a report of every moment.
-
Not even a bird could flap its wings here...
-
...without my consent!
-
- What the hell was that?! - A bird... a pigeon, sir!
-
What's that in my eyes... never mind!
-
This will do for today! You may leave now.
-
Let's go!
-
Strange guy!
-
Who could be the jailor's spy?
-
I know that. It's the barber, Hariram.
-
He's very thick with the jailor. The swine!
-
Hariram, the barber?
-
Go ahead and shave my moustache, Hariram.
-
It has all been arranged!
-
We get cracking tomorrow.
-
How many days will it take to make the tunnel?
-
You've cut my face!
-
The tunnel? It should be ready in about a week.
-
Where are we going to dig the tunnel from?
-
It's from Barrack No. 9.
-
I hope the jailor doesn't get to know!
-
No one will hear of it!
-
Let's go!
-
There. I'm through.
-
Yes, Hariram? What news do you bring?
-
Be careful, sir. They're digging a tunnel in the jail.
-
Oh, well! A tunnel in my jail...
-
What was that? A tunnel in my jail?!
-
Yes, sir. The prisoners are making a tunnel in the jail.
-
I've been a jailor since the days of the British!
-
A tunnel in my jail, eh?
-
So this is where the tunnel is being dug!
-
This is wonderful!
-
But you guys seem to have forgotten that my spies...
-
...are spread out in every part of the prison.
-
And what is this?
-
So this is the tool with which you will dig the tunnel!
-
I'm a jailor... from the British days!
-
Here he comes!
-
- Is it all arranged then? - Yes.
-
We won't miss out this time!
-
A pistol has arrived in the prison!
-
Has the pistol arrived?!
-
In just a couple of days, the jailor and his spies...
-
A pistol in my prison, eh?
-
A pistol in my prison, did you say?!
-
- A revolt?! - That's right.
-
- Streams of blood?! - Exactly.
-
Guards!
-
Halt!
-
Search every nook and corner of the jail!
-
Half of you go in that direction.
-
Half of you go there.
-
The rest of you guys... come with me!
-
Here's the pistol!
-
Move an inch, and...
-
Guards!
-
They've left.
-
- Let's go to your office. - How can I?
-
You have asked me not to move!
-
The first order stands cancelled. Let's go.
-
Is the jailor of the British days so scared?
-
No!
-
Come and see us off at the gate first!
-
Have the gate opened.
-
Open the gate.
-
Here's the key.
-
And here's the "pistol"!
-
The two of them must have tried to run away, isn't it?
-
Tried to run away? That's an understatement!
-
They put their lives into it!
-
But I wasn't about to let them go!
-
As I held one of them...
-
...the other tried to escape.
-
I dragged him back and asked, "Where to, feller?"
-
With two stinging slaps, I ordered them to the police station!
-
That was it! They were begging at my feet!
-
Did Veeru and Jai really beg at your feet?
-
They're dangerous criminals!
-
They're criminals, all right!
-
But I'm not called Soorma Bhopali for nothing!
-
You can imagine! They wept at my feet!
-
And begged for forgiveness; I'd have forgiven them, too!
-
But I was furious that they had dared to trespass my territory!
-
- What happened next? - What else?!
-
You know I carry a stick!
-
It was days since I had used it. So I got down to brass-tracks...
-
...and I really thrashed them! I gave them a terrible beating!
-
- What happened next? - What would have happened?
-
I held them by their collars and said...
-
- What did you say? - What did I?!
-
What did I say?! Yes, I remember...
-
I said, "Do let me know if there is something more I can do for you"
-
Well, guys... have you nothing better to do?
-
You plonk yourselves here and compel me to concoct falsehoods!
-
Go and attend to your work! Go on... lazy bums!
-
Well,... I was only kidding.
-
But you guys have been released pretty quickly, haven't you?
-
My word! The stint at the prison seems to have been good for you!
-
We are here to collect our thousand Rupees.
-
- A thousand rupees? - That's right. A thousand bucks.
-
I see!
-
I got the money the very next day of your arrest!
-
Since that day, the money has been lying in an envelope in my pocket!
-
Check it out... it's a thousand bucks!
-
Well, Soorma... see you again.
-
It's these chaps I've been looking for.
-
When does their prison term come to an end?
-
On the 18th of the next month.
-
Could I have a beedi, guard?
-
Well, Inspector? Whom have you brought to the prison today?
-
I'm not an Inspector anymore. I'm just Thakur Baldev Singh.
-
Why? Have you gotten over your fondness of playing with dangers?
-
If your bravery really makes you so arrogant...
-
...will you accept an assignment from me?
-
We accept assignments only for money.
-
How much do you want?
-
What's the job?
-
Why must you worry about that, if you're really brave?
-
Name the price. And you will get it.
-
Provided you do what I want you to do.
-
Gabbar Singh?! The notorious bandit?!
-
Yes. He's the one.
-
The police are even said to have placed a reward on his head.
-
- 50,000 Rupees... for capturing him dead or alive.
-
You've got to capture the bandit for me... alive.
-
You want us to get Gabbar Singh... that too, alive and kicking!
-
Gabbar Singh is no sheep-kid we could run and catch, Thakur!
-
I know it's a difficult task.
-
But no one pays so much for something easy.
-
Let's suppose we risk our lives and somehow manage to capture him.
-
Do you want us to hand him over to you for just 20,000 Rupees?
-
So you can make a cool 50,000 Rupees, for nothing?
-
The reward from the police will go to you, too.
-
I only want Gabbar.
-
Is it an old feud?
-
That's none of your business.
-
May I ask you another question then?
-
You know we're criminals, too.
-
Why did you choose us to track down the bandit?
-
Only because iron shall deal with iron.
-
That's 5,000 Rupees.
-
You will get 5,000 more upon your arrival in Ramgarh.
-
The rest after you have accomplished the mission.
-
What do you suggest?
-
"Heads" - we go.
-
Well, gentlemen? Where will you go?
-
Belapur, Rampur, Ramgarh... where do you want to go?
-
Have you never seen a horse-cart before?
-
This is a village, sir.
-
You can't find cars here in which you can speed away.
-
Basanti's "tonga" is all you will find around here.
-
Now look; I'm not in the habit of talking unnecessarily.
-
- Say so, if you wish to go... - Well, we do wish...
-
It's okay, if you don't wish to go! You won't be my enemies!
-
I thought you'd need a tonga and happened to ask you.
-
But you don't have to be my passengers, you know.
-
It's your own free will!
-
This is Basanti's tonga, not the field of the landlord...
-
...which you will have to till, even if you don't want to!
-
- This is just like... - Let's go! We wish to go!
-
- Let's go! - Sure. When have I refused?
-
Now look; I'm not a chatter-box.
-
So I'd better tell you in advance.
-
A ride to Belapur costs 2 Rupees and one to Rampur costs 1.5 Rupee.
-
Don't haggle, please! What Basanti says is final!
-
- Okay, but we... - I know what you will say!
-
Just why I charge 2 Rupees for Belapur and 1.50 for Ramgarh?
-
You'd better ask which village this tonga belongs to. Go on.
-
- Well, where does it belong? - It belongs to Ramgarh!
-
I see! So it belongs to Ramgarh! Now I know!
-
Actually, there is this thing worth considering.
-
When I make a trip to Belapur, I actually make two trips.
-
To Belapur and back to Ramgarh.
-
But should I go to Ramgarh, it's like going home.
-
Where would you like to go?
-
Actually, we'd like to go to Ramgarh, too.
-
Sure! When have I refused?
-
But you will have to tell me whose house you're going to.
-
So Basanti can take you to that house.
-
If I'm not told where you've got to go...
-
...how will I stop the tonga?
-
How will the tonga stop if I don't stop it?
-
Who holds the reins? I do!
-
And if I...
-
We've got to go to Thakur Baldev Singh's place.
-
Sure! Let's go! When did I refuse?
-
You could said as much!
-
Let's go, Dhanno!
-
So you see, I had already lost my parents.
-
And who had to fend for my aunt and ply the tonga?
-
Me, of course.
-
People ask how a girl like me can go around plying a tonga.
-
I have an answer ready for them.
-
Dhanno is a mare; and she can still draw the cart.
-
So why not Basanti? Am I right?
-
So what's wrong? City girls drive cars... no one says anything to them.
-
You're a wise man, although you're from the city.
-
- What is your name? - Veeru.
-
You haven't yet asked me my name, have you?
-
What is your name, Basanti?
-
Oh, shut up! You're always talking nonsense!
-
I wasn't talking to you, you know.
-
But since you have asked me, let me tell you...
-
...my name is Basanti.
-
That's the first time I've heard the name.
-
Basanti! What a lovely name!
-
There's a story behind my name, too.
-
Really? Do tell me...!
-
When I was a little girl,...
-
...a distant relative said...
-
That's it, Dhanno! Halt!
-
This is the Thakur's mansion.
-
Strange! Talking to you guys, I didn't even realise the distance.
-
That's right. We are very talkative.
-
Here's the 1.50 Rupee we had settled for.
-
You're a nice man. I shouldn't be accepting the money from you.
-
But what will the horse eat, if it befriends its food?
-
- So I will accept the money. - That's very kind of you.
-
Let's go, Dhanno!
-
Wow! She talks so well!
-
She talks too much!
-
Let's go. You don't have to score with every girl you meet.
-
Come on!
-
Welcome.
-
This way, please.
-
Greetings, Thakur.
-
You had no problems getting here, I hope?
-
Well, not much.
-
Come in.
-
Had you dropped a letter, I'd have sent someone to receive you.
-
Your stay has been arranged.
-
Just let me know, if there is anything you need.
-
I had promised to pay you 5000 rupees on your arrival here.
-
You remember your assignment, don't you?
-
I want Gabbar.
-
- I want him alive. - Of course, remember.
-
You want Gabbar... captured alive.
-
You will have him.
-
Go and take some rest. You must be tired.
-
We'll discuss the rest later.
-
Follow me.
-
Please go ahead. I'll go and fetch the keys.
-
That safe was stuffed with riches!
-
Folks in this village seem to wear a lot of gold.
-
So what do you say?
-
Quite a big house... and beautiful, too.
-
- Who else stays in there? - Your keys.
-
That is your quarters.
-
Do call me over, should you need something.
-
I can't quite figure this out.
-
Why must we bother, Jai? The Thakur has paid us 10,000.
-
Let's clean out his safe tonight and get away. What say?
-
Very well.
-
Let's sleep now, if we're going to keep awake tonight.
-
Thakur! These guys were...
-
They're my men.
-
Then why did they attack us?
-
I wanted to see if you still possess the courage and strength.
-
Or whether time has rendered your might, impotent.
-
So? What did you see?
-
I see that I have made no mistake in having you brought here.
-
There is one mistake you have made, Thakur!
-
You have shown us the contents of your safe.
-
Here's the key to the safe.
-
The safe has some ornaments which are of no use to me.
-
A widow will never need them again.
-
It has some money, too. You can take that away.
-
I'm glad, it will atleast break the Thakur's false hopes.
-
Hopes, that he has pinned on you.
-
Excuse me.
-
That which happened last night will not happen again.
-
Here... have some more!
-
You've eaten enough to be big and strong!
-
But when we make to trip to Belapur, you sure do put on airs!
-
- Go ahead and eat...! - Basanti...!
-
I'm here, feeding this donkey, aunty!
-
Now watch her take off!
-
Listen, lady! You can roam around all day!
-
But you wouldn't do a simple chore for me!
-
There she is! Ranting as usual!
-
You're always losing your temper with me, aunty.
-
Won't you give me a chance? What had you asked me to do?
-
You asked me to go to the physician, didn't you?
-
I did go to him to fetch your medicines.
-
But he wasn't there.
-
He's supposed to be ill...
-
...and has gone to the neigbouring village for treatment.
-
I didn't mention the doctor and you gave me a whole lecture!
-
What else did you ask me to do?
-
Didn't I ask you to fetch some raw mangoes for the pickle?
-
But you will never remember!
-
Oh sure, you did tell me! I'll go and fetch them rightaway!
-
Lmamsaheb! Do you want me to reach you home?
-
Who's that?
-
Basanti! It's you today.
-
I've spent years in this village.
-
You weren't even born then.
-
But even before I can alight the steps of the mosque...
-
...there is someone to reach me home.
-
Why wouldn't anyone?
-
There's not a soul in town who does not respect you.
-
When they respect you so much, why won't they help you too?
-
It's all very natural. Actually...
-
When you can talk so much, why don't you talk some sense to Ahmed too?
-
He's even younger to you.
-
I know how to make them see sense, lmam.
-
I can make your son see reason too.
-
But unless I know what I have to talk about, how will I?
-
Ahmed's uncle works for a beedi- manufacturing factory in Jabalpur.
-
- He earns 300 Rupees every month! - Really?
-
He has written to me so very often to send Ahmed over...
-
...so he'll talk to his boss and find Ahmed a job in the same factory.
-
But Ahmed is just not prepared to go!
-
He says I'd be left all alone!
-
- Hi! How are you? - I'm fine, all right.
-
Now tell me; you've completed your matriculation and speak English too.
-
And as your uncle in Jabalpur writes...
-
There you are! You're taken up with my father says, too!
-
That's the only thing he says to anyone who meets him.
-
So what's wrong? I just answered a question she asked.
-
You know, I'm not used to talking without reason.
-
But just think it over! It's a beedi-manufacturing factory!
-
Work while you work... and smoke a beedi, when you feel like it!
-
It's like getting all the mangoes for nothing...
-
- My God! - What's wrong?
-
The mangoes! I forgot them again!
-
- The raw-mangoes! - The raw mangoes?
-
Yes. I had to fetch them for the pickle...
-
Well? What are you doing here?
-
Well...! That's how it is.
-
Well... which mango do you want me to knock off?
-
Can you really shoot down the mango I want?
-
That's child's play!
-
The best of the big shots pay respects at my meet...
-
...and swear they haven't seen a marksman like me!
-
You seem to be a damn good-shot!
-
Sure... he's of royal descent, isn't he?
-
- What was that he said? - Never mind. He talks nonsense.
-
So, which mango do you want?
-
That one there... the other one, too. And yet another one there.
-
My word! Your friend is a great shot, too!
-
Eh? Oh, yes. Bright chap, you know.
-
I'm still teaching him... He'll learn soon.
-
- Can you teach me, too? - Certainly! I can teach you, too!
-
In fact, I can teach you this in a matter of two days.
-
- In just two days?! - Of course.
-
There have been people he has "taught" in a couple of hours!
-
- In just a couple of hours! - He talks nonsense, you know!
-
Well, come with me, if you wish to learn this.
-
Can you see that mango there?
-
- You can see it, can't you? - Sure.
-
Now hold the gun...
-
...and bring this other hand... close to the other.
-
Now place this finger on the trigger.
-
Now close your eye and...
-
I have already shut my eyes!
-
What is he talking about?
-
The usual nonsense!
-
- Now close your eyes. - Very well.
-
You've shut your eyes, have you? Now... can you see that mango?
-
Strange! How can I see the mango, when I've shut my eyes?
-
- Have you shut both your eyes?! - Yes.
-
But you must shut only your left eye... this one!
-
Now use your other eye to aim at the mango.
-
- Okay. And what do I do now? - Now? Well...
-
Now squeeze the trigger!
-
He's found his mark!
-
I thought I was learning to handle a gun.
-
But now I smell a rat!
-
A rat? What is that? I don't understand!
-
But I understand this perfectly well!
-
You city-guys think we in the countryside are morons!
-
But Basanti could very well teach you a lesson!
-
I was only teaching you! You're misunderstanding me!
-
I understand you very well!
-
Sit here with your gun! I'm going home!
-
Good-bye!
-
Kashiram! Dholiya! Where the hell are all of you?
-
Come, Shankar... what have you brought?
-
It's some jowar, sir.
-
Bloody fiend! You give us a handful of jowar?
-
D'you want to feed the guests at your daughter's wedding with the rest?
-
I speak the truth, sir! I've brought all I had!
-
We need just one bullet to blow your brains out!
-
The stinking bastard!
-
And what have you got, Dholiya?
-
It's wheat, sir.
-
Very well. Keep all the stuff there.
-
Hold it.
-
Welcome, Thakur!
-
You're still alive, are you?
-
Yes. And till such time as I live...
-
...tell Gabbar you won't even get a grain from this village.
-
And who's going to stop us? You?
-
Yes. My men and I will.
-
These men?
-
Heard that, guys? The Thakur has built an army of eunuchs!
-
Death hovers over your head, Kalia!
-
Just look around!
-
Two of them? Is that all?
-
That's enough for you.
-
Kashiram... have all the things taken back.
-
Think it over, Thakur.
-
When Gabbar gets to know...
-
...that people of this village refuse to give him foodgrains...
-
...there can be a lot of bloodshed.
-
Why must you simply...
-
Get lost!
-
And tell Gabbar...
-
...that the people of Ramgarh have stopped feeding mad dogs!
-
Go away!
-
All right, Thakur! I will go away!
-
How many were they?
-
There were two of them, chief.
-
Two of them?
-
Goddamned bastards!
-
There were just two of them... and there were three of you.
-
You have still returned...
-
...without anything.
-
What did you expect?
-
That I'd be delighted?!
-
That I'd congratulate you?!
-
Shame on you!
-
Samba!
-
What prize has the Government placed on my head?
-
Fifty thousand Rupees, no less.
-
Did you hear him?
-
Fifty grand!
-
And that's only because...
-
...when children as many as 50 miles away from here...
-
...when the babies are hollering away in the nights...
-
...their mother ask them to go to sleep, lest Gabbar Singh arrives!
-
And these bastards!
-
They've done my reputation to dust!
-
You will be punished. You certainly will!
-
How many bullets does this gun have?
-
- How many bullets in this? - There are six, chief.
-
Six bullets.
-
This gun has six bullets.
-
Six bullets... for just 3 men.
-
That's an injustice!
-
It's okay now... it certainly is.
-
Three parts of this now hold bullets; and three are empty.
-
I'll just roll the whole stuff over.
-
I don't know now where the bullets are, or where they are not.
-
I know nothing!
-
This gun now holds three lives and three deaths.
-
Let's see what they get.
-
He's escaped!
-
He's escaped, too!
-
What's gonna happen of you, Kaliya?
-
Chief! I've always lived on what I got from you!
-
It's time you stopped a bullet.
-
This is amazing!
-
All three have escaped!
-
None of the bastards stopped a bullet!
-
All three have escaped!
-
Death to the cowards!
-
When is the festival of colours? When is Holi?
-
Well... so this is the Thakur's soldier!
-
Kaliya told us there were two of them, Samba.
-
Where is the other?
-
Where are you, soldier?!
-
Hey, soldier... where is your partner?
-
Speak up!
-
Listen, you other soldier!
-
Will you step out, or do I gun down your friend here?
-
Hold it!
-
Welcome...! Welcome!
-
We now have you in our clutches!
-
Welcome...
-
Good-boy!
-
Well, Thakur? You brought these guys to protect Ramgarh, did you?
-
To take on Gabbar, did you?
-
Listen, you villagers!
-
Take a look out here!
-
These the guys who came here to protect you from me!
-
Have they lost your pluck? All of it?!
-
There's only one man who can save you from Gabbar's wrath!
-
And that's Gabbar himself!
-
In exchange for your security, if we take some provisions from you...
-
...that is no crime or injustice!
-
No crime, I say! It's no injustice!
-
That's it then! Should anyone dare raise his head again...
-
...I will...
-
The heads!
-
You think these guys are accomplished fighters, don't you?
-
These hired-gunmen will now...
-
...place their heads on my feet and beg for mercy!
-
They will beg at my feet!
-
You've heard me, haven't you? You have?
-
Those heads of yours... at my feet!
-
Come on.
-
Move, I say!
-
Hurry up, Dhanno!
-
We can't wage this battle for you anymore, Thakur!
-
We held you in great respect. But it's all over!
-
We came here for the brave inspector...
-
...who waged a lone battle against a gang of bandits in the train.
-
We didn't come here for a coward...
-
...who couldn't pick up a gun lying before him to save our lives!
-
It's okay, if you wish to leave.
-
You can go.
-
Before you leave, won't you want to know the reason...
-
...why I didn't pick up this gun lying here?
-
What reason can there be? You're a coward!
-
It's a long story.
-
It happened during the days I was posted at the Belapur police station.
-
We got information that Gabbar was going to loot the village Haripur.
-
The police raided them at the right time...
-
...and the bandits had to flee.
-
I started chasing Gabbar.
-
Let me go... let go... Leave me alone, you bastard!
-
Gabbar Singh! This is no arm! This is a noose!
-
In view of the testimonies and the evidence at hand...
-
...this Court reaches the conclusion that...
-
...Gabbar Singh is a dangerous and professional criminal.
-
This court, therefore, holding him guilty of dacoity...
-
...sentences him to 20 years of rigorous imprisonment.
-
I'll remember you... I'm sure, I will remember you.
-
After 20 years in the prison, you will forget everything, Gabbar.
-
No prison in the world has walls strong enough...
-
...to hold Gabbar captive for 20 long years.
-
And the day I escape,... you will regret it, Thakur.
-
You're going to regret it.
-
Take him away.
-
This enmity's going to cost you dear, Thakur!
-
Thakur! Congratulations!
-
Another criminal you've nabbed is coming to my prison.
-
He's a dangerous man, jailor. You'd better be careful.
-
I'm glad your application for leave has come through.
-
It had to anyway. You're going on leave after a very long time.
-
Had I not taken leave now, my folks would have stopped talking to me.
-
It's the same story with everyone in our profession.
-
I face the same problem.
-
How many members do you have in your family?
-
I have two sons who are married and a daughter of marriageable age, too.
-
I want to find a nice groom for her this time.
-
I also have a grandson.
-
Really? You don't look so old!
-
We in the village are married very early in life.
-
An early marriage means the son comes early, too.
-
Since the son marries early, he has a son very soon.
-
In fact, he's about 8 years of age.
-
Old enough to take offence if you don't visit him on leave?
-
You bet!
-
I'm carrying gifts for everyone, in order to pacify them.
-
There you are then; I've never accepted a bribe in my life.
-
But I have to bribe my family, whenever I go home!
-
I must take your leave now.
-
- What is it? - Gabbar Singh has escaped, sir!
-
Gabbar Singh has escaped?!
-
You've missed again!
-
You're no good, uncle!
-
Oh sure! Your father's been hunting lions, hasn't he? Just shut up!
-
You're going to the station to receive grandpa, aren't you?
-
- May I come along, too? - Go and ask your mother.
-
Why don't you tell her?
-
Just tell her that you're going with me. Go on.
-
Mother...
-
Let me cut the vegetables.
-
May I go to the station with uncle, mother?
-
No. You're not going to the station.
-
Madam... I've asked someone to fix the main-gate.
-
And here are the things you had asked for...
-
- Young mistress! - I'm coming over!
-
I'm going to the temple. But if there is anything I can do...?
-
Go on. I'll handle it.
-
- Let's go. - Give me that.
-
- May I go to the station, mom? - Haven't I said you can't?
-
Let him go, if he wants to.
-
No way. There are always so many trains passing by.
-
I'm scared.
-
The trains seem to have an axe to grind against your son.
-
They'll leave their tracks to go after him!
-
You have a funny logic.
-
So you're preparing the vegetable father likes, eh?
-
- Let him go, I say. - Okay! Go ahead and spoil him!
-
Will you go like this? Go and have a bath.
-
Ask your aunt to... Nirmala!
-
Yes, sister-in-law?
-
Will you get a set of clothes out for the kid, my girl?
-
Right away.
-
Go on.
-
And you've started chewing on the raw vegetables!
-
They're all busy today to impress father!
-
As if you get the witch to do the chores every day!
-
This wheel is still lying here?
-
Ramlal has become a forgetful old man.
-
I'd asked him to have the drawing room and father's room cleaned.
-
But he's not even to be seen.
-
He's away at the temple with Radha. He will do it when he returns.
-
- Hey, Ninni! - Yes, brother?
-
Have a bath and get ready! Aren't we going to the station?
-
I'll join you in a minute!
-
I can't figure out how this silly hunter found a wife like Radha.
-
It was I who asked father to pursue the alliance.
-
But does anyone even acknowledge what I've done?
-
I've found him a wife who's one in a million!
-
Or girls nowadays ask for a division the day they are married.
-
Wait and see what a great match I find for Nimmo next.
-
No!
-
Gabbar?
-
Yes...
-
Welcome, Thakur.
-
I knew for sure that you'd come here.
-
The ass struggles!
-
You contemptible bastard! God-damn scoundrel!
-
Curse me as much as you wish! To your heart's content!
-
- You bastard! - Yes! Shout some more!
-
Remember? I cried the other day and you watched the fun?
-
You will cry your lungs out today... and I will watch the fun!
-
Know what, Samba?
-
I was livid at the court that day... so very furious!
-
I could have wrung his neck there and then! The bastard!
-
But I couldn't help it! I was held by four of those cops!
-
Handcuffs in my hands... my legs shackled! Remember?
-
You remember that, don't you?
-
Any last wish, Thakur?
-
There's still a lot of life in your arms.
-
Tie him up!
-
I'm not going to kill you now.
-
After I'm through with you... the world will spit on you.
-
Your arms are full of life!
-
His arms are strong enough to pull down a running horse!
-
Your arms are full of life!
-
D'you remember what you had once told me?
-
They aren't arms... they're a noose!
-
And here you are! The noose has been destroyed!
-
It has been ripped open!
-
Arms full of life, aren't they?
-
These arms...
-
...give them to me, Thakur. - No!
-
- Give me your arms, Thakur! - No!
-
- Did you see anything else? - No, sir.
-
We shut our doors and windows when we heard the gunfire.
-
I see... very well.
-
- Put your thumb-impression here. - Very well, sir.
-
Welcome, Thakur.
-
I've got to know of what happened here, from these folks.
-
I wanted to discuss something with you.
-
The police want Gabbar; dead or alive.
-
You will have him one day.
-
Is there something you can tell me about Gabbar?
-
No.
-
Okay. That's all I wanted to know.
-
Thank you, Thakur.
-
Good-bye.
-
We don't want that money, Thakur.
-
Please take it back.
-
Please don't think, we won't carry out the mission for you.
-
But didn't you say you only work for money?
-
Well, we...
-
We will get the money anyway.
-
- Once we have killed Gabbar... - You will not kill Gabbar!
-
You are here to catch Gabbar alive and hand him over to me.
-
Give me your word! That you will hand him over to me, alive!
-
We give you our word, Thakur. But please take back the money.
-
Girija, the blacksmith, brings some news from village Titli.
-
You might meet Gabbar again very soon.
-
Come on.
-
- Greetings, Thakur. - Greetings.
-
So what's news, Girija?
-
There are some gypsies staying at Pipri.
-
Hira and his friends are there too.
-
Hira is the one who sells arms and ammunition to Gabbar.
-
Gabbar is bound to meet him in a couple of days.
-
Strike... when the iron is hot.
-
My God! What happened to him?
-
Don't worry. The bullet has just grazed his arm.
-
It's not a serious injury.
-
We blew up almost all their arms and explosives, Thakur...
-
...but Gabbar managed to escape.
-
It's okay. We'll get him again someday.
-
Take a swig, partner. Your troubles will vanish.
-
Should you stop drinking, it will reduce most of your troubles.
-
- Would you like to...? - God almighty!
-
Greetings, lmam. I have a letter for you.
-
- Here you are. - It must be from Jabalpur.
-
- Could you read it for me? - Certainly.
-
Where are my glasses? I put it in my pocket!
-
That which you are looking for is here with me!
-
- Here you are! - The chatterbox is here, isn't she?
-
Actually, we were going in the opposite directions.
-
You were on your bicycle and I was on foot.
-
You dropped your glasses and I picked them up!
-
I guessed as much that the glasses must belong to you.
-
The funny part is, it's really yours. Actually...
-
If you rest your mouth a little, I'd know what the letter says.
-
- I'll listen to you later. - Okay! When did I refuse?
-
- It begins with a greeting. - Greetings himself, too.
-
Everything is fine here and we pray for your well-being.
-
"The good news is that the job for Ahmed has been finalised"
-
"He will get a salary of 200 Rupees"
-
"He can very well stay with me and eat with us, too"
-
It's good that he will be in his uncle's care.
-
Oh yes! That's wonderful! That's just what I wanted, too.
-
"It wouldn't be proper to delay this matter anymore"
-
"I hope you will treat this letter like a telegram"
-
"Please arrange to send Ahmed here at the earliest"
-
"Everything else is fine here; my folks send you their regards"
-
- "I remain, yours... - Mukait Ul-lah.
-
I will not listen to any excuse from Ahmed now.
-
That's right. But he's very much here.
-
Let me tell you, father. I'm not going there.
-
- This is like... - This boy is a fool!
-
I have one foot in the grave and you have your life ahead of you!
-
How long will you cling to me? You don't find such jobs everyday.
-
Your father is right, son.
-
In fact, I've heard of people praying at temples in the cities...
-
- The temple?! - What's wrong?
-
Actually, I was headed for the temple and happened to find his glasses.
-
That's it! I forgot where I was going!
-
But I've remembered it now!
-
Hey, Veeru... there goes your horse-cart girl.
-
Well, Basanti... you're on foot today.
-
Has your mare run away with the cart?
-
You still don't understand that no one elopes out here.
-
My mare is honourably at home and today being a Monday...
-
...aunt told me that if I pray to Lord Shiva on every Monday...
-
...l'll get a husband that the world will be stunned.
-
I said, okay... I don't intend to marry a bum anyway.
-
Okay, then... I must leave. Praise the Lord!
-
Praise the Lord!
-
Praise the Lord!
-
Lord! There is nothing in the world that is hidden from You.
-
You are omniscient, Lord!
-
I don't say that You have forgotten it.
-
But it's always good to remind You.
-
Today's a Monday and I have a small request, Lord.
-
Look at my hands, rough and rugged from holding the reins!
-
And what problems could You have, Lord?
-
Get me married into a family where I will rule like the Queens!
-
Life's gotta be fun!
-
I leave the rest to You.
-
Young lady...
-
Who spoke?
-
It is I who has spoken!
-
Lord! It's You! This is a miracle!
-
I have found a match for you, lady.
-
In just one Monday? That's excellent!
-
You must obviously have chosen the best!
-
Could You tell me the name, perhaps? Or do I come again next week?
-
I will do as You say, Lord.
-
His name is Veeru.
-
He's okay to look at; but he's a bloody smart ass!
-
Silence, maiden!
-
I never talk without reason, Lord! I'll do as You say!
-
If you don't obey my command, you will remain a spinster all your life!
-
Forgive me, Lord!
-
You will continue to drive the horse-cart all your life!
-
I now command you to go and tell your aunt, in no uncertain terms...
-
...that it is Veeru who will be your companion for life!
-
To respect and honour Veeru therefore shall be your prime duty!
-
Because, your heavens lie at his feet!
-
Should you please him, I shall be pleased!
-
And if you irritate him, I shall be enraged!
-
Really?
-
So go to him...
-
I thought I would...
-
You thought this village belle has no brains!
-
You thought you could fool me!
-
You think you're smart!
-
But I could outsmart guys like you!
-
Sit here and play God! I'm going home!
-
Atleast listen to me!
-
I've thought of something today.
-
You must do that, once in a while.
-
I've taken a very crucial decision today.
-
I know what your decision is; you want to marry Basanti.
-
That's wonderful! You're a true friend!
-
Only a friend could know how I feel!
-
But I also know that this is your 8th decision to marry this year.
-
But this is final!
-
Really? No wonder... you've been drinking from early this morning.
-
- Will you do something for me? - What is it?
-
Go and talk to Basanti's aunt; make such an impression...
-
...that the old lady is compelled to propose our marriage!
-
Why must I do that?
-
Naturally! It's the groom's folks who approach the bride's parents!
-
Besides, you're the only one I have in the world, my friend!
-
It's your wedding, okay? So go and do this yourself.
-
Give it a thought... a cozy home, after marriage!
-
- A home that is yours. - A loving wife...
-
- Your wife. - A handful of kids...
-
- All yours, too. - You're the one they'll call uncle!
-
They'll forever pester you, play with you all the time...
-
...and ask you to tell them a story!
-
Which means I'm going to play the maid-servant in your house.
-
It's clear now! You are no friend!
-
To hell with such a...
-
Acting pricey, aren't you? Because no one else can do this for me?
-
Had only my mom been alive, I'd have settled down in life!
-
I'd even have had kids!
-
Had my old man been around, he'd have celebrated my wedding in style!
-
Had I brothers and sisters, they'd have begged the old lady...
-
...but seen to it that I married Basanti.
-
But don't you forget! Those without support, have God on their side!
-
Lord Almighty!
-
You're not the friend I knew!
-
You don't want me to give up crime and settle down in life!
-
What had I imagined you to be... and what you really are!
-
The bloody clown... he's forever up to dramatics!
-
Cut the act! I'll go and talk it over with the old lady.
-
Will you, really?!
-
An unmarried girl at home is like a burden on the soul, son.
-
I can be at peace, only when Basanti is married.
-
You're right. You are indeed bearing a burden.
-
But I can't just dump her in a well, can I?
-
Please don't mind this, but I must ask...
-
...about the suitor's family, his habits and his earnings.
-
As far as earnings go, once he is married,
-
...he will start earning to fend for them.
-
Doesn't he earning anything at the moment, then?
-
Of course, he does! When did I say that he doesn't?
-
It's like this; no one can win all the time, can he?
-
There are times the poor chap even loses money.
-
- Loses money? - That's right...
-
...but that's gambling, you know. There's little I can say about it.
-
My God! Is he a gambler?
-
Not at all, madam! It's a shame to call him a gambler!
-
He's a gem of a person; decent and straight.
-
But when someone is high on liquor, he can't see things in perspective.
-
They force him into gambling. How's poor Veeru to blame?
-
You're right, son. A drinker and a gambler... and yet, faultless!
-
You're misunderstanding my friend. He's an innocent, young chap.
-
Just get him married to Basanti...
-
...he'll give up drinking and gambling in no time!
-
Don't tell me, son. I know better.
-
Has anyone ever been able to kick habits like drinking and gambling?
-
You don't know Veeru. Believe me, he's not at all like that.
-
Once he's married, he'll stop visiting the nautch girl. Period!
-
His drinking problem will be solved on its own!
-
Good Lord! That's all he lacked! He even visits brothels, does he?
-
So what's wrong with that?
-
Even kings and princes have often patronised dancing-girls!
-
I see... but can you tell me which family your friend hails from?
-
We'll let you know that, the moment we get to know of it!
-
I must say one thing, son. For all your friend's vices...
-
...you can only praise him!
-
I can't help it, aunt. I'm really soft at heart.
-
So, do I take it then that they will soon be married?
-
Married? It's okay even if she remains a spinster all her life!
-
But I will not let Basanti marry such a man!
-
I'm her aunt; not her step-mother!
-
It's strange that you refuse, despite the best of my efforts.
-
Poor Veeru. I don't know how he will deal with this.
-
I'll take a jump and die! Out of my way!
-
Hey, watch it! What are you doing?
-
I'm doing just what every legendary lover has done!
-
They died for their beloveds!
-
Suicide!
-
Well now... what is suicide?
-
When the English die, they call it suicide.
-
But why do the English die?
-
What's up, feller? Why do you want to commit suicide?
-
You'd rather not ask! You'll break into tears!
-
It's a very sad story!
-
It has emotions, drama and tragedy!
-
You know Basanti, don't you? I was going to marry her.
-
But her wicked aunt has been an obstacle!
-
I can't live in this big, bad world, anymore!
-
I bid you farewell, villagers! Good-bye!
-
Well,... what is "good-bye"?
-
When the English leave, it's called "good-bye".
-
But where do the English go?
-
Hey, villagers! Here I go!
-
God Almighty! Here I come!
-
Hold it! Wait...!
-
What?! Okay, if you insist, I'll wait for a while.
-
Hey... you're a strange friend! You're sitting here unaffected!
-
- Why? What's wrong? - How am I to know?
-
Look at your friend! He's climbed all the way up there!
-
You see that, don't you?!
-
Yes, I do. But nothing's going to happen.
-
He'll climb down, when he sobers down.
-
I've seen many cruel people. But not a heartless friend like you!
-
Hey, watch out!
-
I have no one in the world! Nor friend, nor buddy...
-
So I'm going to end my life!
-
But I must warn you, villagers!
-
Where a lover ends his life, the village is wrought with calamities!
-
What calamities will we have to face?
-
There will be famine and drought! Diseases and death!
-
And all that only for the sake of that old hag! That old hag indeed!
-
My God!
-
You will see for yourselves! When I die...
-
...the police will arrive and take the old hag away to jail!
-
In jail, the old hag will labour on the grindstone...!
-
You'd better agree, lady. Or he'll kill himself!
-
But how can I agree, Dinanath?!
-
You don't have to beg for anything from the hag, villagers!
-
Nothing can stop me now!
-
I will certainly end my life!
-
Here goes; one, two, three...
-
Please, aunt! Agree to what he says!
-
You'd better agree, or do the rounds of the courts and police stations!
-
But I've never been a court or a police station!
-
- Then you'd better agree. - All right.
-
Stop that, Veeru! I agree!
-
The old lady has agreed! Now quietly come down!
-
Who wants to marry the old lady!
-
It's Dhanno... I mean, it's Basanti I want to marry.
-
I'm willing to marry you, Veeru! Come down now!
-
Hear that, villagers?
-
The old lady is willing... and so is Basanti!
-
So my death has been cancelled!
-
I'm coming down, aunt... my adorable aunt!
-
I'm coming down...
-
What am I going to do now?!
-
- So long, father. - You're leaving, are you?
-
Go on... my God protect you.
-
Write to me, the moment you reach there.
-
You're a very careless eater; look after your health, okay?
-
As my father, God bless his soul, used to say...
-
...in good health lies true happiness and wealth.
-
Let me walk with you for a while. I'll get myself some air, too.
-
It's okay, father. Relax... I'll go away from here.
-
Really? Okay, then... Let's embrace.
-
Hurry up, Junga... I hold the Queen of clubs.
-
That's okay, Samba. But look there; the easy prey.
-
- Chief... - Yes?
-
This boy's from Ramgarh.
-
He was on his way to the station, when we found him.
-
Hear that, guys? People from Ramgarh have started fleeing their homes!
-
Please... let me go. I must...
-
Do you know me?
-
Do you?
-
I happen to be the father of Ramgarh!
-
Well, Samba... these bastards have their noses up in the air, don't they?
-
High up, indeed.
-
But I swear, I'll have them rub their noses on the ground and...
-
You're going to grovel before me and rub your nose on the ground now.
-
Come here.
-
Come here!
-
Hold it...! He will bow on his own!
-
Just watch what a dumb son-of-a-bitch he is!
-
On your knees, bloody swine!
-
Hold it!
-
Killing him with a bullet would make things easy for him.
-
I'm going to torture this bastard to death!
-
Why's there so much of silence here?
-
- Imam-saheb... - Who's that?
-
Veeru? Why's there so much of silence here, son?
-
Please come with me.
-
- Please come... - What's wrong?
-
What's up, son? Where are you leading me...
-
Who's that?
-
Ahmed?!
-
Ahmed!
-
Lmamsaheb, I must...
-
How will you console him, Thakur? You're responsible for all this.
-
It's true!
-
And you villagers had better listen to this letter from Gabbar, too!
-
Addressed to the people of Ramgarh, it says, "Look at the..."
-
"consequences of challenging me at the Thakur's instigation"
-
"Should you folks still not mend your ways..."
-
"death shall perform its ugly dance in every courtyard of Ramgarh!"
-
"Should you care for the lives of your family and children..."
-
"...then before sunrise tomorrow..."
-
"hand over the Thakur's men to me, at the old hillock"
-
He has signed it off as "Gabbar Singh, chief of the bandits."
-
How could you land us in such a grave danger, Thakur!
-
To lead an honourable life, we will have to pay a price, Dinanath.
-
We are farmers, Thakur.
-
And we can pay the bandits with food-grains for our lives.
-
We can't pay them with our children's lives!
-
We're farmers, after all. We are not soldiers.
-
You are right, Shankar. We are indeed farmers.
-
This has been a country of farmers for many ages.
-
But whenever someone evil has shown aggressive designs...
-
...by God, it was farmers who melted their ploughs into swords!
-
It's not the blood of cowards that flows in our veins! No!
-
But how is violence and bloodshed going to help?
-
Non-violence has its place, too.
-
I do believe in non-violence.
-
But it won't be an act of non-violence...
-
...to grovel before a wicked and evil man!
-
It's nothing but cowardliness! Plain spinelessness!
-
Those who don't bow are broken down, Thakur!
-
This Thakur can neither be made to bow nor be broken down!
-
This Thakur can only die!
-
But I will live in dignity, till as long as I live!
-
For how long are you going to live? And how long will we live either...
-
...with these guys around in the village?
-
If you think you can save your children's lives...
-
...by handing us over to Gabbar Singh...
-
...you can very well give us up to Gabbar. We are willing.
-
Yes. We must do the right thing now.
-
We can't bear the burden of this problem anymore.
-
Who's speaking of not bearing the burden?
-
Do you know what is the biggest burden in the world?
-
A father bearing the bier of his son!
-
There can be no bigger burden.
-
An old man like me is willing to bear this burden...
-
...and you refuse to combat a problem?
-
There's something I very strongly believe in.
-
An honourable death is anyday better than a life of humiliation.
-
It's I, who has lost a son.
-
But I'd still want both of them to stay on in this village.
-
I leave the rest to you.
-
It's time for my prayers.
-
I will ask God today why He did not give me...
-
...some more sons to be sacrificed for the village.
-
Will someone please help me reach the mosque...?
-
What's that? A letter?
-
Of course, you idiot! Read it.
-
"If you kill one villager, Gabbar, we will slay four of your men"
-
Check out if it's those guys, or have they dumped someone else here?
-
"For every villager you kill, Gabbar, we will slay four of your men"
-
The fun begins now!
-
It's ages since I've run into someone who boasts so much!
-
The real fun begins now!
-
This game will end with the lives of these two guys.
-
Every family and household in Ramgarh, will end with this, too!
-
Here you are.
-
It was really bothering you.
-
She's a very unfortunate girl.
-
It's almost as if she has forgotten to speak.
-
As for earlier, I'm always reminded of those days...
-
...when I first visited her village with my master.
-
It was on the festival of colours.
-
Hey! That's enough!
-
It's the festival of colours! No one can take offense!
-
How will I celebrate with your father if you douse all the colours on me?
-
How will you celebrate the festival with my father in any case?
-
He just doesn't know how to celebrate the festival!
-
He's been sitting at home all day!
-
Either he touches the feet of the elders visiting him...
-
...or the younger ones touch his feet as a mark of respect.
-
They apply a pinch of colour on each other's forehead from a plate...
-
...embrace each other and that's it! They've celebrated it!
-
That's no way of doing it! It's us, who really celebrate it!
-
Really? And how do you celebrate it?
-
You know Paro, don't you?
-
- Paro? - Yes! Paro!
-
There's a tank in her courtyard. We've mixed all the colours in it!
-
Where folks normally douse colour on people...
-
...we dump people in the colours!
-
The moment we spot someone, he goes straight in the tank!
-
I hope you don't have a tank of colours in your house!
-
Or Ramlal and I will find ourselves neck-deep in it.
-
Watch what I do!
-
Anyone in, mister?
-
Who's that?
-
- I've scared you again! - You're crazy!
-
The Thakur! You didn't even tell me!
-
Welcome! Greetings of the season!
-
What are you standing there for?
-
Won't you bring some sweets for the Thakur?
-
Just a moment...
-
- Must I bring the plate too? - Which one?
-
The one from which you will take a pinch of colour...
-
Sure, go ahead and bring it.
-
Please come, Thakur.
-
Let's go and sit there... it's very loud out here.
-
- So, Ramlal? Is everything fine? - I'm fine, thank you, sir.
-
Well, Thakur? I hope you've had a nice crop this year.
-
Actually, I'm an outsider in my own house.
-
It's Ramlal who knows everything about my farms.
-
It's he who commands things in our farms.
-
Sweets for everyone!
-
Open your mouth, uncle!
-
That's enough, dear...
-
Okay, Mr Ramlal... open your mouth!
-
- Give it to me, dear. I'll have it. - No, sir!
-
- I will feed you! - Give it to me, dear.
-
She's like your daughter, Ramlal. Let her feed you.
-
He's right. Now open your mouth!
-
My God! How could I forget the plate with the colours?
-
She's a very jovial girl.
-
You bet! She's always kicking up a racket!
-
Here I come with the plate of colours!
-
Here's the plate of colours for you to take a pinch out of it!
-
- I'm leaving! - Where are you going?
-
I'm going to my friends to celebrate! May I leave?
-
Haven't you had enough of the colours yet?
-
It's a festival of colours, uncle... of all hues!
-
How can anyone ever have enough of the colours?
-
Tell me; wouldn't the world be so dull, without these colours?
-
How dull and lifeless her world has suddenly come to be.
-
With her tears having washed away her bridal-henna...
-
...what colours can she look forward to in life?
-
I've taken a decision.
-
Really? So you've started taking decisions too?!
-
Yes. When you are into it, I think I'd rather do it too.
-
- What is that? - Get married.
-
Get married?!
-
You want to get married?!
-
Yes... I've had enough.
-
I've now decided to lead a straight and simple life.
-
In which I have a house of my own, a wife, many children...
-
...who will pester you for stories...
-
Hey! That's enough! Sit down here, will you?
-
Sit down here, I say.
-
I hope you know that you need a girl to get married to?
-
Have you approved of a girl then?
-
- Yes, I have. - Who is she, may I ask?
-
That Radha?!
-
Are you mad? Don't you know who she is?
-
Now look; even thugs and criminals are given a second chance in life.
-
And then, Radha has done nothing wrong.
-
Has she no right to start life afresh?
-
How can that be? What will society and community think of it?
-
The society and community are meant to save man from loneliness.
-
They're not meant to isolate someone.
-
Besides, must we let Radha suffer in silence for fear of society?
-
How long are we going to live anyway? We might soon be dead.
-
Whose support will she live on? Whom will she turn to?
-
It was because of all this that I came to you.
-
But you are her father. I leave the decision to you.
-
Not at all, Thakur. She's your daughter now.
-
Whatever you decide will be best for her.
-
I'd still want you to meet Jai at least once.
-
I'll send him over in a couple of days.
-
A penny for your thoughts!
-
It's nothing.
-
I get it! I know what you're worrying about.
-
You're wondering whether your proposal will come through.
-
I suggest you toss again.
-
If it's Heads, it's gonna be okay. Or else... well!
-
If everything works out well, Veeru...
-
...why don't we settle down here, in this village?
-
There! You've spoken my heart!
-
I've been thinking of this, too.
-
It's no use being thieves all our lives.
-
We've spent enough time in the prisons.
-
Once we get the money, let's settle down here.
-
We'll buy some land and turn farmers.
-
But we can't use the plough... how will we be farmers?
-
Our vices taught us to wield guns; our virtues will teach us this.
-
You're right. Necessity does teach a man a lot in life.
-
I've already worked out everything for myself!
-
I'll marry the girl who drives the horse-cart...
-
...and be the father of a couple of children in 23 years.
-
I've even thought of the brats' names!
-
And when I ask my wife where the kids are...
-
She'll say...
-
"They must be with your friend Jai to listen to his stories"
-
Why must you always send your children to me for stories?
-
You know I can't remember these bloody stories, Jai!
-
Stories, my foot! You don't even remember what happened yesterday.
-
Yesterday? Of course I remember I met Basanti yesterday!
-
We've promised to meet at the lake this morning!
-
- This morning, huh? - Yes!
-
Here I go!
-
Let's go, Dhanno!
-
Let's go! It's a question of my chastity today!
-
Go on, Dhanno! Faster!
-
Faster, Dhanno! Go for it!
-
What do these guys in Ramgarh feed their daughters with?
-
Look at her... she's one hell of a spicy doll, isn't she?
-
Damn spicy, all right!
-
Remember how we went to Jamnadas's daughter's wedding last year, chief?
-
She'd given them a terrific dance performance there.
-
Wow!
-
She must be a sizzling dancer!
-
Show us a couple of steps, darling.
-
Now look, lady... don't you act too high and mighty!
-
Or I'll scratch off this beautiful skin... all right?
-
Wait a minute, darling.
-
Tie the bastard!
-
You seem to be thick with him, what say?
-
Well, strong man? Mohammad comes to the mountain, eh?
-
You have a scene with that babe, do you?
-
You bastard! I've yet to see a creep like you!
-
You won't get to see one either.
-
Because your life is now going to end.
-
- The bastard... - No!
-
Like a house on fire, eh?
-
You're pretty thick, aren't you?
-
Pick up your gun, Samba!
-
And aim your gun at this cur!
-
Now listen to me, darling.
-
If you wish to save your lover, show us some dance.
-
No! Don't you dare dance before this dogs, Basanti!
-
Delay this any longer, and we'll blow your lover's head apart!
-
There's another thing I must tell you, darling.
-
That man will breathe, only till you continue to dance.
-
That gun will go off, the moment your feet stop moving.
-
If anyone dare moves, he's gonna be dead meat!
-
Gabbar Singh! Ask your men to drop their guns!
-
Go on
-
Go after them! Go on!
-
And don't return empty-handed, you bastards!
-
Hurry up!
-
- Jai! Are you all right? - Yes, I'm okay.
-
The three of us can't escape on a single horse, Veeru.
-
Take Basanti away to the village and return soon.
-
And bring lots of ammunition when you return.
-
No! I will stay here! Take Basanti and leave quickly!
-
Listen to me, Veeru! Take Basanti away! I'll stay here.
-
No, Jai! I can't leave you alone.
-
One of us will have to go, Veeru.
-
Or else, we'll soon run out of bullets.
-
Well, all right. Let's toss instead.
-
If it's Heads, I stay back. If it's Tails, you hold fort.
-
I win!
-
- But how can you be... - No more arguments, Veeru!
-
Leave your gun and bullets behind. And take Basanti out quickly! Go on!
-
I somehow don't feel like leaving you alone, Jai.
-
- Take care, okay? - Sure.
-
There's just one bullet!
-
- Are you okay, Jai?! - Yes... I'm okay.
-
I've killed every single bastard before...
-
Don't worry, Jai! Just don't be scared!
-
Why must I be scared when you're with me, Veeru?
-
Let's return to our village! Everything will be all right!
-
My game is up, Veeru.
-
- It's all over... - No!
-
No, Jai! Don't say such things!
-
But I have no regrets, Veeru.
-
I have lived for my friend... and am dying before him!
-
But there is something I'm leaving unfinished, Veeru.
-
I won't be able to tell stories to your children.
-
You're going to be all right, Jai! Nothing will happen to you!
-
But you must tell your children tales of our friendship and exploits.
-
You won't forget that, will you?
-
What nonsense are you talking?!
-
Look there, Veeru...
-
There's yet another incomplete story, Veeru.
-
What had I dreamed of; and what has come to be?
-
No, Jai! You can't leave me like this!
-
No!
-
No, Jai! Please don't!
-
No, Jai! You can't do this to me!
-
Jai! You have cheated me to save my life?
-
I swear upon the blood that you have shed!
-
I will pick and choose each one of them, and give them death!
-
Gabbar Singh! I'm coming after you!
-
Run! But how far will you go, you swine!
-
Gabbar! Come out in the open!
-
Face me like a man, you bastard!
-
I've come to avenge every drop of blood that my friend has shed!
-
You can't escape death today!
-
Hand him over to me, Veeru.
-
No, Thakur! I'm not going to let this bastard live anymore!
-
Don't forget your promise, Veeru!
-
I don't remember anything!
-
All I know is that this bastard's men have killed my friend!
-
And I'm going to have his blood for that!
-
It was that very friend of yours who had made a promise to me.
-
Leave him alone.
-
I wish it was I who had made the promise; I'd have broken it today!
-
But it was my friend who gave you his word.
-
So,...
-
You can't fight me, Thakur! I've already cut your arms!
-
One uses his feet, not his hands, to crush the snake, Gabbar!
-
My feet are enough to deal with you!
-
Your arms are full of strength, aren't they?
-
Gabbar! Give your hands to me!
-
No!
-
Give me this hand, Gabbar!
-
No!
-
Well, Thakur... I must leave now.
-
I know I can't share your grief; But I do
