Bhoothnath Returns Page #5

Synopsis: Bhoothnath Returns takes Bhoothnath's story forward. As he returns to 'Bhoot World' he is greeted with taunts and condemnation from other ghosts for bringing disrepute to the ghost-community for getting bullied by a kid on Earth. Post the humiliation, Bhoothnath decides to redeem himself and come back to scare a bunch of kids. Bhoothnath's search for kids brings him to Akhrot, a slum kid who is also the only person who can see him. Together they agree to help each other and their friendship sees them get involved in a cause that is bigger than they had ever imagined. To move ahead they will need to take on one of the country's most powerful and corrupt politician Bhau. The Lok Sabha elections are nearing and Bhau's victory is a mere formality, or is it? In a world, where a common man is afraid of politics, will a common man's ghost overcome his fear to stand up for what's right and fight against injustice?

So, what do you say?

What?

- What do you say?

Even if I contest in the elections,

who'll vote for a ghost?

It will be a joke.

You are too young to vote.

'I am no more' to vote.

We won't get a single vote.

What if we get one vote?

From where will you get it?

Damn them!

I hope they don't get

water when they are dying.

How should we poor people survive?

One never gets water!

What if you get one vote?

Then I'll think about it.

I'll get you one vote for sure..

Aunty.

Can I ask you a question?

Please don't get angry.

If from our area,

a ghost contests in the elections.

A ghost?

- Yes.

I mean someone who will

get the roads repaired,

gets the gutters cleaned,

gets rid of all the garbage,

and gets water in these taps,

will you vote for him?

Son, these unpaved roads,

overowing gutters, garbage..

We are used to it.

If anyone can get water

even once during the day..

Then forget a ghost,

I'll even vote for a dog!

Yes.

People couldn't get us water.

Don't be stupid.

You think a ghost will get us water?

Oh really?

Are you sure?

By God.

You guys are getting serious.

Yes. - No, no, no.

As you please. As you please.

But as your lawyer.

I am your lawyer, right?

Yes.

- Yes.

Yes, so as your lawyer, it is

my duty to tell you a few things.

Like?

Like you filing a nomination

can cause a big commotion.

Are you getting me?

So, we need to keep

all the papers in order.

So that in future the opposition

doesn't disqualify your nomination.

Are you getting it?

What kind of documents?

I'll handle everything,

you just need to get two documents.

A police certificate

that he is not a criminal.

And a doctor's certificate

stating he is mentally stable.

A common man always prays that.

.. he never has to visit a doctor,

lawyer or the police.

And I am about to

face all three of them.

Sir, please strike

out lawyer from your list.

Why?

What "Why"?

Some lawyers can be honest as well.

Keep it down, Gabdi.

- Why?

Otherwise,

they will place you in a museum.

Stop it! Are you planning

to mend the whole world or what?

He's crazy.

Sir..

Sir..

- Yes?

A ghost has come to meet you.

Shinde, how many times have

I told you not to drink on duty?

I swear, sir. Never while on duty.

I'm telling the truth.

There is a ghost outside.

ls he here because we

suppressed his murder case?

No, not for that.

He wishes to contest in the election.

He wants a clearance letter for it.

A ghost will contest

in the election?

Please do it, sir.

It's a little urgent.

Who said that?

- Not me.

It's me, sir. Bhoothnath.

Please do it. It's a little urgent.

Everyone comes here

with urgent work.

Someone got stabbed.

That's urgent.

Someone got hit by a drunk.

That's urgent.

A politician's sandals

got stolen from outside a temple.

That's urgent.

A celebrity's dog is lost.

That's urgent.

To clean up the city is urgent,

so are we detergents?

Inside the hearts of this country's

population there's only frustration.

Outside the system's constipation,

the situation is such..

..that everywhere

there's saturation.

Public wants to know, what's the

justification of this intoxication?

There is right to information,

but to that there is objection.

Police has the power,

but it has its own limitation.

The one who has designation

doesn't have the intention.

The one who has suggestion,

doesn't have the position.

What should people do in such

a situation, that's my question.

I'll do something, Mr. Ghost.

I'll do something.

But there's something

I can't understand.

Do you wish to embezzle

the people's money?

No.

Do you want illicit

land in your family's name?

No.

Do you want to make a foreign

trip on public fund?

No.

Then do you wish to do social

service by becoming a politician?

Yes.

Yes?

Damn, he's impossible.

- Yes.

He didn't come to his

senses even after death.

Go.

I'll check all your records.

If even/thing's well then I'll

give you an "all clear" certificate.

Okay?

- Thank you, sir.

See you.

Shinde..

- Yes?

Didn't you see him coming inside?

Sir, how could I see him?

And we are law enforcers.

And law is blind..

- I know. I know.

There's something

that's confusing me.

For you, should I give a normal

report or a post mortem report?

I didn't get you, sir.

Look, for someone who is dead,

a doctor gives a post monem report.

But how can a post monem repon

tell if a person is insane or not?

Sir, post monem is

done on the dead body.

And I am a soul.

And a soul lives forever.

And hence, I am alive.

So perform a test that you

would on someone who is alive.

Yes, yes. You got a point there.

Sir, you are a psychiatrist.

It is not right for

you to get confused.

I am confused?

Now watch me confuse you.

Yes. I'll do an inkblot test on you.

Look at this.

What do you see in it?

Sachin's century.

I knew you were crazy.

How can you see..

Was I wrong, sir?

No.

What do you see in this?

Draupadi's disrobing scene.

Oh God!

And here, a sinking Titanic.

And at the moment you are

holding my "OK" certificate.

Yes.

Then take it.

Take it.

I've handled the police.

Great.

I've taken care

of the doctor as well.

Great.

Now?

- Great.

What!

I mean the election officer.

The election officer?

So, who is contesting

in the election?

A ghost.

Look, I don't have

time for your silly jokes.

This is not a joke, sir.

I am extremely serious

about contesting this election.

Really? - Yes.

There is nothing in

the rule book that states.

..that the person contesting

the election should be alive.

This.

Yes. There is no such rule..

Alright.

Who is proposing it?

- I am. I am his lawyer.

My name is Gabdi Kumar.

From which party?

An Independent candidate.

You'll need to pay

10000 rupees for this.

Here you go.

And ten people to nominate you.

Sure.

Alive.

What times have come!

Now even ghosts contest elections.

Sir, you have been conducting

elections for so many years.

You've seen many dishonest people

I am just an ordinary ghost.

We also want good people

to contest the election.

Yes.

- If not alive, so be it.

This needs to be signed.

Sure.

Sign.

Lallan.

Lallan, once again please.

Please say that once again.

Bhau, you..
