Azhar Page #9

---

Here's a peice of advice for you.

I've a friend.

He's opening a gym.

He needs a celebrity

for his gym's inauguration.

I can speak to him for you.

VVhat..vvhat happened?

Azhar..

It's hard to kill time here..

..and he wants me to cut ribbons.

Ribbon?

Not bad idea.

You want me to cut

ribbons in this condition.

Azhar, we'll have

to do everything we can.

Such publicity can be

good for our case. - How?

Look, if you're seen

amongst public again..

..they they might start thinking

about you the way they used to.

Maybe this ribbon cutting can mark

the beginning of your good innings.

Please, brother.

This is what was missing.

This is my reality.

The crovvd..people

cheering my name.

'..their madness.

This is what I was.

lvlust be experiencing all this

after really long, isn't it?

Reminded you of your good old days,

haven't l?

Hovv are you feeling?

I am what I am because of my fans.

Then hovv about you shake a leg.

And let people see

that side of you too.

Let's save the dance

for your first anniversary.

And settle for autographs for now.

You're the first one to enter the gym.

So you're supposed

to wear this gym jacket.

No, the b|azer's fine.

I am not asking.

You should be seen

wearing the gym's name.

..whi|e cutting the ribbon.

And it's always the

client's preference, right?

Come on, wear it.

Everyone wants it.

Come on, wear it.

Great.

Here you go.

Good!

Come on, start!

Let us show you.

Batting! Batting!

We||..how about you show

us some of your flick-shots.

This isn't the place to bat.

You're Azhar. You can bat anywhere.

Yes..your batting.

I mean..if you don't

show us your shots.

..then what's the point

of calling you here?

Come on, show us some

of your goods shots.

I can't do it.

Stop showing attitude

and hold the bat.

Come on..vvhat are you doing?

I want a few of your

flick shots..come on.

You must let your

game speak for you.

If you yell and scream,

only a few will listen..'

I can't do it!

Anyone will come up

and ask me to hold the bat.

I am a sportsman, not a monkey.

I can't do tricks.

Get lost.

It's wrong to take

pity on people like you.

"Even the sky gets defeated.

Spends time on the ground."

"Dreaming to achieve

those heights again."

"When life shatters.

All hopes are lost."

Today I've nothing left.

But I am happy..nothing

makes a difference to me.

And there comes a change in life

when nothing matters anymore.

"My heart will soar again.

in the sky."

"The heartvvill battle with

the two worlds again."

"To win again."

A coin has two

sidesheads and tails.

But destiny favors

those who make a comeback.

"To win again."

"To win again."

Ivleera, you were my junior in London.

And you still are.

Yes, |\/Ir. Reddy.

ls your witnesses here?

The one you requested time for?

Witness..

Your honor, I would like

to call upon a witness.

..who is Azhar's biggest fan.

- Objection.

His biggest fan will

only speak in his favor.

This will be misleading, your honor.

Your honor, at least give me the

opportunity to call my witness.

If you feel thier statement is

misleading, you can dismiss it.

But Your honour, such a witness.

- Overruled.

|\/Ir. Reddy, you can call your witness.

- Thank you, your honor.

By the way,

I don't need to call her..

..just request her.

The witness name is..

Ms. Ivleera Verma.

What?

The defense lawyer as a witness.

This has never happened before.

- It has, your honor.

1988..Carlson Vs Loraz

Disposal Services Ltd.

This example is from

a lawsuit in Canada.

Your honor, the court's

duty is to serve justice.

Whether it's India or Canada,

justice is justice.

And you must admit that my

witness..won't mislead the court.

I will allow it.

Ms. Ivleera, will you please step into

the witness stand?

Yes, your honor.

So Ms. Ivleera, hovv does it feel

when you have to answer questions.

..instead of asking them?

Just do yourjob, |\/Ir. Reddy.

I'll speak the truth,

and nothing but the truth.

Meera..you're a big

fan of Azhar. - Was!

Sorry, you were.

So you knovv..vvinning and losing

is a part of the game.

Yes..one team wins

and the other team loses.

So all the cricket matches that

the Indian team has lost till date.

..must been fixed.

I didn't say that.

So, the three matches which

my client's been accused of fiing..

..cou|d've been natural defeats.

But we have CBI reports

of all three matches.

CBI reports?

Hovv did CBI prepare these reports?

On the basis of the sting operation.

Sting operation.

Your honor, please take note.

Please take note..

Ms. Ivleera, there's one

detail that's bothering me.

Before the proceedings, you

were forcing Azhar..to take an oath.

Absolutely.

"|'|| speak the truth,

and nothing but the truth."

What was the reason for this?

Because this is a court proceeding.

And the holy oath is taken.

..so that the testifier does not lie.

And the truth is revealed.

- Correct.

So if the same man

gives two statements.

..one under oath,

and the other one without.

..vvhich statement

will be considered true?

Obviously, the one given under oath.

The oath.

I am taking note, please continue.

Sorry, your honor.

What is your point, |\/Ir. Reddy?

- Point?

My point is..that during

the sting operation.

..the people who were comfortably

sitting on their sofas and chatting.

..vvent quiet in front of

the Chandrachur Committee.

Why? What could be the reason,

Ms. Ivleera?

It's your point,

why don't you clear it?

The reason is clear, your honor.

When these people had to say

the same things under oath.

meaning, they had to tell

the truth, they clearly refused.

No one stepped forward.

They didn't take the oath,

no one told the truth.

So, these sting tapes, which are

the foundation of this entire case.

..how can we believe them to be true?

Everyone..everyone

was talking in the air.

Everyone does it.. Gossip.

And they took everyone's

name, ecept for their ovvn.

Ravi..Jay..Kapil..

So, if we believe

these tapes are rea|..

..then we should ban everyone.

In fact, we should ban

the entire Indian Cricket team.

You're quiet.

That means you agree.

Can I go now?

Ms. Ivleera,

I know you're not used to..

..standing on the other

side of the witness bo.

But please clear one point for me.

Your honor, please take note..

|\/Ir. Reddy, I am not sitting

here to just say order-order.

I am taking note.

Please don't keep reminding me.

- Yes.

Who imposed this ban on my client?

The Cricket Association.

The Cricket Association.

And who carried out the investigation?

|\/Ir. Ivladhavan the Cricket

Association's head.

The Cricket Association's head.

And who paid the salary to |\/Ir.

|\/Iadhavan's panel?

The Cricket Association.

The Cricket Association!

That's my point.

The Association imposed the ban!

The Association decided the panel!

The Association paid

this panel's salary!

So hovv can this panel

do their job neutrally?

Tomorrow,

if the government fires you..
