[Lady 1]: Come one, come all!
[Lady 2]: Polio is a dangerous sickness
that mostly affects little children.
[Lady 2]: It makes them disabled. [Roli]: Calm down, kids.
[Roli]: Sit down, everyone.
Everyone will get a shot. Settle down.
[Lady 2]: So when it is polio's turn,
it becomes the responsibility of every parent.
Two drops of life-saving vaccine.
(indistinct announcement)
[Roli]: This is for you.
[Vijay]: Wow! For me!
[Roli]: It feels nice to see you smiling and cheerful.
[Vijay]: Only a corpse could be joyless at the sight of carefree childhood.
[Roli]: May I ask you something? [Vijay]: Sure, ask me.
[Roli]: You weren't involved in the S. J. Hospital shootout
in Bombay, right?
[Vijay]: No.
And as far as my involvement is concerned...
From now on, I'll be involved in only one thing in life,
and that's you.
The thing is, Roli,
after having gained everything,
I don't want to lose anything now.
One thing is for sure.
Vijay Singh won't lose anything now.
I just remembered I was supposed to meet Uncle Bechan.
I must go to meet him.
If you don't mind, may I go?
[Vijay]: Well? [Roli]: Go.
[Vijay]: Goodbye.
(intense music playing)
[Bechan]: I have tried hard to figure this out.
But I don't understand
how your name was linked to the S. J. Hospital shootout.
[Vijay]: I don't understand it either, uncle.
[Bechan]: Did you shoot policemen too?
[Vijay]: No.
[Bechan]: Then how did your name end up in the newspapers?
[Vijay]: Not the policemen, I shot only three gangsters.
It was all according to the plan.
After I had recovered, Ramanand asked me
to go to Bombay and do this for him.
And so I did that.
[Bechan]: May I say one thing?
[Vijay]: Yes. [Bechan]: Don't be mad.
[Bechan]: What if Ramanand is using you
because you are indebted to him?
(Vijay chuckles)
[Vijay]: Uncle, whenever it is about family,
you become very restless.
You're impossible. How did it even occur to you?
I got shot so many times, and yet I survived
and have come back to you alive.
I found love.
I found my family back. Who do I owe for this?
Only him.
[Bechan]: But you had to stay away from your family for four years.
I don't understand that.
Listen, we are reaching the shore.
[Unknown Men]: Hail Lord Mahadev! [Unknown Men]: Hail Lord Mahadev!
[Unknown Men]: Hail Lord Shiva!
[Katta]: Sir, I'm going to Prayagraj.
I want to take a holy bath.
I'll see you all soon.
[Man 1]: When will we see you again?
[Katta]: Soon.
[Bechan]: Hail Lord Mahadev!
Hail Lord Mahadev!
(theme music over opening titles)
(Katta cries softly with happiness)
[Vijay]: How are you, Katta?
[Katta]: Brother, I was very disheartened.
But it's heartening to see you.
I thought that God had taken you away from me.
But God's divine play never ends.
[Vijay]: The world is a strange place, Katta.
And God works in mysterious ways.
All of this is His miracle.
How is Seema?
[Katta]: Brother,
I sent Seema to Meerut, away from Sanki.
And...
I'm living here in disguise.
Well, I'm killing time here.
But, brother,
now that you're back,
I feel like doing something worthwhile.
[Vijay]: Damn it, I'm hiding from the world by covering myself up,
and you're hiding from the world
by being naked!
[Katta]: Brother,
if you cover yourself up, everyone will want to see what's hidden.
But if you bare it all, they'll avoid you.
Brother, it's very difficult to be a wandering monk.
I can't keep doing this.
[Vijay]: What's the matter, Katta?
These days, instead of reading lips,
you're using modern technology.
[Katta]: It's all thanks to God.
Brother, tell me.
What do we have to do?
[Vijay]: There's a lot we have to do, Katta.
A lot.
[Man 2]: There's a famous proverb in Banaras, sir.
Wh*res, bulls, stairs and hermits.
If you avoid these traps, you can enjoy Kashi.
[Man 2]: Look, sir. (funeral procession chanting)
[Man 2]: His body is being taken to the Manikarnika cremation ground.
The journey of life ends in Kashi, sir.
You've come to the right place.
[Constable 1(M)]: Hey!
I'm here. Take these bags of vegetables.
Hurry up and lend me a hand!
Take this.
How many puris have you made?
Hurry up, man! You've made so many sweets!
It's the inspector's birthday today.
[Constable 2(M)]: Sir, eat a laddoo. It's made from pure ghee.
[Constable 3(M)]: I'll skin you alive! [Man 3]: I haven't done anything, sir!
[Constable 3(M)]: What did she say... [Constable 4(M)]: What's the matter, sir?
[Constable 4(M)]: Who do you want to meet? [Himanshu]: I want to meet your in-charge.
[Himanshu]: Tell him I am ACP Himanshu Patnaik of the Mumbai Police.
[Constable 4(M)]: Okay, sir.
[Constable 4(M)]: Sir, would you like a laddoo?
[Himanshu]: No. [Constable 3(M)]: It's made from pure ghee, sir. Eat it.
[Himanshu]: No.
[Constable 4(M)]: Hail India, sir. The ACP from Bombay is here.
[Rajesh]: Call him in.
Hail India, sir.
Actually, sir, there's a lot of disturbance today.
It's my birthday, sir.
Forget all that, sir.
Tell me. Did you face any trouble on your journey?
[Himanshu]: No.
[Rajesh]: No problem. The trouble will start now, sir.
[Himanshu]: What did you say?
[Rajesh]: I was joking, sir.
I joked in response to your joke.
[Himanshu]: But I didn't crack any joke.
[Rajesh]: Sir,
it has been four years since Vijay Singh's death.
And you've come from Mumbai to Banaras to find him.
What is this if not a joke, sir?
Look, even we have closed all the files we had on him.
[Himanshu]: The truth,
Mr Rajesh Pathak...
It hides in the dark like a cat.
But when you switch on the light, it leaps out immediately.
So, if you could switch on the light in your brain,
maybe you can see the truth too.
[Rajesh]: With due respect, I'd like to warn you
that this is Banaras.
This is not Bombay.
It's not controlled from Dubai.
Here, every neighbourhood is full of miscreants.
And the children here, sir,
learn to swear before they learn to say Mom and Dad.
They learn how to make bombs before they start going to school, sir.
I suggest you stop digging up buried corpses, sir.
[Himanshu]: I didn't get you. Could you explain it in detail?
[Rajesh]: Anyway, forget all that.
Please have lunch here, sir.
Fresh food is being cooked.
And I recommend, sir,
that you go back to Bombay after that.
[Himanshu]: You've been ordered to cooperate with me, right?
So, follow your orders.
And I'll decide whether to dig up buried corpses
or to make more corpses. Got it?
[Rajesh]: Well, as you wish.
Hey, listen!
[Keshav]: Sir.
[Rajesh]: This is ACP Himanshu Patnaik from Mumbai.
[Keshav]: Sir.
[Rajesh]: Here's what you have to do.
Be with him 24x7 and follow him like a shadow.
[Keshav]: Yes, sir. I'll follow him like a shadow.
[Himanshu]: Can you give me a vehicle?
- [Rajesh]: - You have a vehicle, right, Keshav?
[Keshav]: Sir, there's no petrol...
[Rajesh]: Don't worry about fuel.
I'll arrange it for you.
[Keshav]: Yes, sir. [Rajesh]: Sir,
[Rajesh]: you have full cooperation of our department.
We all are with you, sir.
[Roli]: It is so peaceful around here, right?
[Vijay]: Life seems beautiful when I'm here with you.
[Roli]: Uncle!
[Ramanand]: Something has been on my mind for many days.
But I don't know why I was hesitant to bring it up.
[Vijay]: What is it?
[Ramanand]: I was wondering
if the courtship between Roli and you
could blossom into a formal relationship.
(Roli chuckles)
[Ramanand]: Marriage.
(Roli chuckles)
[Ramanand]: I'll talk to your mother.
[Vijay]: Uncle!
[Ramanand]: Vijay,
I'd do anything for you.
Be happy always.
(priest chants wedding mantras)
(sirens wailing)
[Man 3]: When will the minister be here?
[Man 4]: I'll let you know as soon as I find out, sir.
[Man 3]: Is this a joke?
[Man 4]: No, DM. Why would I joke around with you, sir?
[Man 3]: It's been a month, and I haven't met him or heard from him!
[Man 4]: DM, let alone meeting you,
he hasn't even sat in his chair
since he assumed charge of the ministry.
Here he comes.
(car approaches with siren)
[Man 4]: The DM is here to meet you.
Greetings.
[Man 5]: Sir, I need your help. [Waseem]: You'll get it.
[Waseem]: Tell me. How can I help you?
[Man 4]: Thank you, sir.
Sir, I wanted to tell you that it's been a month,
and the files of officer's transfers and postings are lying on your desk.
[Waseem]: What did you say?
[Man 4]: I meant to say,
they're lying on your department's desk.
If these decisions aren't made soon,
there could be trouble. (phone ringing)
[Man 4]: The trouble is that a lot of people have been calling me...
[Man 3]: Hello. [Saraswati]: I want to speak to Waseem Khan.
[Man 3]: Yes. [Man 4]: So, if you could...
[Man 3]: Sir, it's Saraswati Devi.
[Waseem]: Hmm?
[Saraswati]: Ever since the CM has found out that Vijay Singh is alive,
he has been worried about you.
That's why I've called you.
So, be extra careful.
And knock the ministry into shape.
It's an important ministry.
Long periods of absence won't be right.
[Waseem]: Actually, I'm the home minister.
I know what's right and what's not.
Goodbye.
(sound of putting phone's receiver down)
[Roli]: Vijay.
Vijay.
You're alone on the rooftop, staring at the sky and thinking.
That means you're thinking about something serious.
Well?
[Vijay]: Do you know, Roli?
I feel like going somewhere far away
and starting life anew
where my life won't be burdened
by my past deeds.
[Roli]: You can.
My elder uncle said he'd arrange everything.
Okay?
[Waiter 1]: Okay. What else do you want?
[Bechan]: Huh? [Waiter 1]: What else do you want?
[Bechan]: Imported liquor, if you have it.
[Waiter 1]: We don't sell imported liquor.
[Bechan]: You should sell imported liquor.
[Sadanand]: Here's imported liquor for you. [Waiter 1]: Here you go.
[Sadanand]: Although you don't consider me family...
But we're both related to Roli. So...
Drink it.
The whole bottle is yours.
[Bechan]: But who are you?
[Sadanand]: Guess.
[Bechan]: You're Ramanand's brother!
[Sadanand]: Sadanand.
People know me because of my brother.
Well, many people call me Moron Ganesh too.
[Bechan]: Yes. [Sadanand]: Greetings.
[Sadanand]: Cheers! [Bechan]: Cheers!
[Bechan]: Yes.
[Sadanand]: I want
to meet Vijay.
[Bechan]: You're drunk already!
(Bechan scoffs)
[Bechan]: How can you meet a dead man?
Vijay is no more.
(Sadanand chuckles)
[Sadanand]: Only in the world's eyes.
Look, don't tell me that same old lie.
Look,
I know you're concerned about him.
But I'm his well-wisher too.
He's like my son-in-law.
He's my niece's husband.
[Bechan]: If you want to say something,
say it clearly.
[Sadanand]: I'll get to the point.
Vijay is being used.
I'm afraid
he might meet the same fate as Roli's parents.
[Bechan]: What do you mean?
How is that related to Vijay?
Roli's parents
died in an accident, right?
[Sadanand]: Did they die,
or were they killed?
So, I'm warning you.
It's not right to trust someone blindly.
Vijay should stay close to his family,
to those who wish him well,
to those who want to help him win back the Purvanchal he lost.
(Bechan chuckles)
[Bechan]: You're inciting me against your elder brother.
(Sadanand chuckles)
[Sadanand]: Damn my brother!
I know everything because I'm his brother.
If you don't believe me, you can ask around.
Roli was in college back then
when my elder brother...
Roli's parents...
Unless
you stop being blinded by your gratitude,
you won't see the truth.
(knock on door)
(door opens)
[Man 5]: Greetings, uncle. [Bechan]: Greetings.
[Bechan]: Where's Vijay? [Man 5]: He's inside, uncle.
(Sound of temple bell ringing)
[Roli]: Listen. [Vijay]: Tell me.
[Roli]: There's a lunar eclipse today.
Take me to the riverbank tomorrow.
I'll eat only after I take a dip in the river.
[Vijay]: As you wish, Your Highness.
[Roli]: Really? Your Highness?
Which state am I the queen of?
[Vijay]: You're the queen of my heart.
[Roli]: Oh, come on!
[Vijay]: I was thinking of buying a small house in Kolkata.
[Roli]: Wow! How can a queen live in a small house?
I want a house with five rooms.
[Vijay]: How about I buy the Victoria Memorial for you?
[Roli]: That's enough. I am happy right here.
[Ramanand]: You have to book a ticket for Vijay Singh and make sure he gets it.
[Man 6]: Yes. [Ramanand]: It's important.
[Man 6]: Yes. I'll book it and send it to him.
[Sadanand]: Brother... [Ramanand]: You fool!
[Ramanand]: Can't you see I'm having a meeting?
[Sadanand]: Brother, I want to tell you something confidential.
It's very important that you know it.
[Man 6]: Yes, sir.
[Ramanand]: What is it?
[Sadanand]: I met Uncle Bechan.
He wanted to know about our brother Brahmanand.
I mean, he directly asked me about him!
I didn't tell him anything.
But I think he got a hint from someone.
I'll feed the cows.
[Bechan]: You're getting paid on time, right? [Man 7]: Yes, sir.
[Bechan]: Let me know if you face any problems.
[Bechan]: Okay? [Man 7]: Okay, sir.
(vehicle approaching)
[Bechan]: Well, goodbye.
[Man 7]: Goodbye, sir. [Bechan]: See you.
(engine starts)
[Bechan]: Let me go! [Bilal]: Bring him here!
[Bilal]: Motherf**ker, come here! [Bechan]: Let me go!
[Waseem]: Respected Uncle Bechan,
I don't care if you live or die.
But the thing is, that f**ker Vijay Singh cares.
And in order for me to kill him again,
you must die for the first time today.
Got it?
(Bechan spits)
[Bechan]: You two-bit scoundrel!
Vijay Singh won't spare you, motherf**ker!
[Waseem]: The whole family is f**king stupid!
You motherf**ker! (sound of punches and kicks)
Damn you, motherf**ker!
Motherf**ker!
F**k off, motherf**ker!
The b*stard talks too much!
Motherf**ker!
[Bechan]: Kill me!
[Waseem]: I'll bloody kill you! Come on!
Come on, motherf**ker!
Come on!
[Bechan]: Vijay won't spare you.
[Waseem]: What did you say?
Motherf**ker! Give me that.
You son of a...
(gunshots)
[Waseem]: If no one comes to collect this scoundrel's body by the morning,
cut the motherf**ker up.
[Bilal]: Yes, boss.
[Chunnu]: Bring the luggage fast.
[Chunnu]: Don't you know you're late? [Man 8]: Hurry up!
[Chunnu]: Brother, hurry up! [Vijay]: Yes.
[Chunnu]: What are you doing? [Vijay]: I'm here, Chunnu.
[Chunnu]: Brother, it's time! You'll miss the train!
[] Vijay: Buddy, here's the thing. The train won't leave without me.
And I won't leave without taking everyone's blessings.
(vehicle stops)
[Katta]: Brother!
(Katta cries)
[Katta]: Brother!
Unc...
[Vijay]: I'm asking you the same! Where is Uncle Bechan?
[Katta]: They've killed uncle and thrown his body on the stairs of the river bank.
Waseem Khan is there. The police are there too.
[Vijay]: You've gone crazy!
I'm waiting for uncle!
We're going to start life anew.
We want to take his blessings.
[Katta]: They've killed uncle. (cries)
[Chunnu]: Katta!
You're lying, aren't you, Katta?
Someone must have spread a false rumour, Katta! (cries)
[Katta]: Uncle is dead! [Chunnu]: No, Katta! (cries)
[Chunnu]: Katta, it must be someone else's body! (cries)
Waseem Khan! (cries)
I'll kill that motherf**ker, brother! Mark my words!
It's time to blast the whole of Purvanchal apart!
That motherf**ker!
[Roli]: Chunnu. [Vijay]: Chunnu, listen to me.
[Chunnu]: Brother!
Brother, I want my father's corpse!
[Vijay]: Chunnu, we'll get Uncle Bechan's body.
And his funeral procession will start here.
That's my promise to you.
[Man 9]: Hail Lord Mahadev! [Unknown men]: Hail Lord Mahadev!
[Officer 1(M)]: Sir, you must leave.
Sir, we'll handle everything.
[Waseem]: Today, I'll carry out the investigation.
[Officer 1(M)]: Sir, please try to understand.
[Man 9]: Hail Lord Mahadev! [Unknown men]: Hail Lord Mahadev!
(people chanting)
[Waseem]: Why are they here?
[Officer 1(M)]: They are Lord Mahakaal's devotees, sir.
They'll be gone in two minutes, sir.
[Waseem]: Where will they pass through? [Officer 1(M)]: Here, sir.
[Officer 1(M)]: Sir, we can't block their way.
Please move aside, sir.
(chanting continues)
[Officer 1(M)]: Sir.
Sir, please.
Everyone, move! Clear the way!
Sir, please.
[Man 9]: Hail Lord Mahadev! [Unknown men]: Hail Lord Mahadev!
[Officer 1(M)]: Sir, please.
[Man 9]: Hail Lord Mahadev! [Unknown men]: Hail Lord Mahadev!
[Waseem]: Hey! The corpse is gone!
Hey!
[Man 9]: Hail Lord Mahadev! [Unknown men]: Hail Lord Mahadev!
[Waseem]: Vijay!
