Bangistan Page #4

Synopsis: Bangistan is a whip smart and uproarious satire on fundamentalism and the story of two unlikely terrorists, the antitheses of each other, with a common destructive goal. Concerned by the unrest in the name of religion, Subcontinental leaders of Muslims and Hindus, the Imam and the Shankaracharya, announce that they're attending the International Peace Conference in Krakow in a joint effort to help unite the two religions in perpetual harmony. Rival rabble-rousing ragtag organizations, the Islamist Al-Kaam Tamam and right-wing political party Maa Ka Dal separately recruit and brainwash Hafeez and Praveen to suicide bomb the conference so that they may continue to wield their local influence. After a rigorous, and hilarious, 'training' period the two men switch their religious identities to stay under the radar. Hafeez, the jihadi, masquerades as a conservative Hindu, Ishwarchand; while Praveen, the Hindu soldier, dons the garb of a practicing Muslim, Allahrakha. Focused on the mission,

It will shake you up!

Are you looking for a bomb that will solve all your problems?

Then your search ends here!

Cindy, no praise is enough for this product...

The customers themselves are witness!

It doesn't pay to be cheap...

In 1999, I ... Shut up!

I bought a beep Ltd. suicide bomb

The mission failed and I only lost one arm.

Have some tea.

Any chance I could sample the product?

Would you prefer to explode here or elsewhere?

This is not a present for your wife...

This is a suicide bomb. How exactly will you sample it?

But what if-

Don't worry about the bomb. It is Made in China.

Even our mobile phones explode spontaneously.

This looks like orange juice... Will it work?

Chinese goods, bro. Judge it only on performance.

It will blow you to pieces.

You're getting a bomb at the cost of a sparkler,

It's a great deal.

If I had listened to my brother and avoided a cheap bomb...

I would've been a martyr like him.

Did you hear that, Cindy? Yes, Tom!

Order now! Prices are on your screen. With discount!

Mr. Bobbitsky... Yeah?

Do you...

Do you have anything cheap?

How much money do you have?

Hey! Jung Nung!

The Chinese don't bow. That is a Japanese custom.

Jung Nung, go!

They just don't listen...

They're playing with a ball of RDX!

Take your assembly instructions.

For such an amount you may have this potato bomb, my friend.

And with it...

Here is a copy of Bombmaking for Dummies.

Thank you Mr. Bobbitsky!

Allahrakha...

Isn't your beard a bit short?

All beards need not be honeycombs. What does a long beard accomplish?

What?

A long beard and cries of Jihad do not make a good Muslim.

As a Muslim, how can you-

You worry too much for Muslims!

You got angry at the airport as well.

Take care of yourself. Muslims will worry about themselves.

Ah, here it is...

Bull and boar...

This is the place Wilfred was talking about...

Looks like a bar...

So what?

A true Muslim has no place in a bar...

Isn't alcohol prohibited in your religion?

Well, you can have some...

I have never even touched alcohol in my life.

Such devotion!

I'm very hungry, come!

This is such a strange place...

This is a great place...

Based on the exterior, you can't even tell what's inside!

Two?

You're such an odd Muslim...

You are having so much fun here...

And you were insulting jihad earlier.

Muslims have been persecuted through the years.

The Quran says -

What does the Quran say?

The Quran...

The Quran speaks of jihad!

And what is jihad?

Jihad...

You know... What jihadis do...

I see... And what do jihadis do?

How would I know? After all, I'm a Hindu!

But as a Muslim, don't you know about jihad?

And the Quran?

The Quran says nothing of the sort...

You've been hoodwinked by baseless opinions.

Yes, the Quran says that jihad is a struggle...

But every man's internal struggle against sin.

Most Muslims do not understand the Quran. You're only a Hindu.

Haven't you read the Gita?

Gita...

If you had, you'd know the truth. Oh, really?

In the Gita, Krishna asks Arjun to...

Kill in the name of faith.

The Gita refers to righteousness. Not religion.

(Quoting scripture)

Lord Krishna says...

O Arjun!

Yes, My Lord?

Overcoming fear, anger and hate...

For the love of Mankind is the truest form of victory.

The Gita speaks not of our religious constructs...

But of victory... Of kindness over cruelty...

Of virtue over vice...

Of truth over falsehood.

Really?

Dzien Dobry!

It means 'Good Day' in Polish.

Would you like me to recommend a food order?

You're Wilfred's new tenants, right? Tamim told me.

Don't break his rules or else...

Won't you introduce yourselves? I'm Rosanna. Call me Rosie.

I Allahrakha! Call me...

Whatever you like.

Ishwarchand Sharma.

Here we go...

Poland's famous dish...

Ziemniak ze sledziem.

I'm vegetarian...

Come on bro, Rosie has brought it with such love...

Here.

Thank you...

So what brings you to Krakow?

I'm here to become famous.

How famous?

You'll know when my work is done...

In fact, the whole world will know.

Why, planning to blow something up?

What do you mean?

That just because he's a Muslim he's a terrorist?

It's the same everywhere. Aren't Muslims human too?

I'm sorry I upset you...

Don't mind him Rosie, he's a Hindu... He cannot tolerate insults...

Even against Muslims.

Okay guys, enjoy your meal. I'll be back. Bye!

Bye Rosie...

Salaam Alaikum! Salaam Alaikum!

Alaikum salaam friends. All okay?

Nothing is okay. Show him...

What is this?

It's a lamb. We want to hide it here.

Why?

Are you stupid?

We'll sacrifice it on Eid in a couple of days.

Unfortunately, this Wilfred...

Doesn't allow us to keep lambs.

You're new, so he won't suspect you.

Okay, I'll see you at the Eid feast!

And take care of the lamb. It is of a royal lineage.

Goodbye now! Goodbye!

Hey, wait -

Goodbye!

Amidst gunfire and notes of war

Straight up or convoluted...

One and many, dazed and confused

You push and shove, look deep into the enemy's eye...

And act on what the heart says...

I will fight the world!

I will fight the world!

I will fight the world!

I will fight the world!

Kill or die, I will do as I please.

I'm not afraid of anyone.

It's my story, I write my own script...

It's my right, and I own it.

It's my take, the rest is unimportant

My thoughts, and my wish

I will not stop, and keep moving on...

I will fight the world!

I will fight the world!

I will fight the world!

I will fight the world!

This way or that, it doesn't matter how...

The deed must be done.

I wield all power and control.

In a deck of cards, I'm the ace of spades.

I will smite the blots that they are

And run the world on my whim

I will suffer no more.

Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick...

Boom.

I will fight the world!

I will fight the world!

I will fight the world!

I will fight the world!

Oh no...

Police!

Meet my friends...

Willie and Bahadur!

It's Wai Kar Wong.

My God...

What is this Tamim?

Willie, remove your glasses...

It's a hole!

We can see the hole Tamim...

Why is it in the roof?!

Mr. Sharma!

New kids in town. Desis.

Missing home... Trying to spend time together...

Duplex... Cozy cozy. It's alright.

Spending time together... Or planning to bomb the city?

Just because he's a Muslim he's a terrorist?

No no, you're overreacting... Let it go...

Don't get worked up...

They are only kidding!

Shut the hell up! Don't be smart!

You are right...

Every Muslim is not a terrorist.

You can also be one.

All clear.

Don't worry, don't worry...

One day real terrorists will come...

Then guess who will catch them and get a promotion?

Who?

Who?

Who?

You... You, my babies! You!

Let's go...

I'll see them off.

Heathen! Pest!

You two are clear now. Enjoy.

Are you tired, Bholu?

Want to sit here?

Excuse me...

How come you're here, friend?

You're here too?

Come, let's chat!

No no, some other time...

Rosie was looking for you... Let's go meet her!

Rosie? Yes!

Let's go, then! Yes, let's get out of here...
