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?
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..
