Bhoothnath Returns Page #9

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? Bhoothnath Returns is an entertaining tale of good against evil, weak against po

"they have to make do with it for five years.

- Yes.

And after five years,

you can launch a new detergent.

Or re-launch the old detergent.

Like Bhau,

with a new formula,

for more whiteness. Right?

Wonderful.

Wonderful.

You've passed with distinction.

So you think that

I can win this election?

You will win this election

only if you fight it the way..

..it is fought in our country.

The thing is, if honest

people could win elections.

..just by contesting for it..

"then people like us would've

become unemployed long back.

This is the truth, Mr. Bhoothnath.

The thing is,

everyone will come to cheer you up.

But not everyone will come to vote.

This is what has been happening.

And this is what

will continue to happen.

These people make

such a fool of everyone.

..during elections.

Ask him, will he continue

to talk to himself.

..or does he wish to tell

us something?

Will you tell us what happened?

You know why a good

candidate doesn't win?

Let me tell you.

Give me some groundnuts.

I need ten groundnuts.

Five over here. And five over here.

A good candidate loses election

because half of the people don't vote.

And among those who vote..

The one who get

these many votes wins.

That means the one who gets

only 30% votes rules the country.

Because.

Because half of the population

doesn't vote. - They don't.

This is no longer an issue

between Bhau and me.

It is an issue of every good

candidate in the country.

What should we do..

.. that they too come to vote.

How will we bring about

such a big change?

We'll have to make

people understand.

But who will make them understand.

He is contesting

so he should only do it.

Yes. You will. Who else?

Me?

- Yes.

Anyways, politicians give speeches.

That's when people go

to listen to them.

No, no, no.

Public. No speeches. No speeches.

I lose my voice

in front of the crowd.

No.

- What are you saying?

I have stage fright.

Stage fright.

What. what's tight?

What do you have?

I mean..

I cannot speak

in front of a crowd.

That's why I didn't get

any role in school dramas.

Nor did I ever get

a chance to say a speech.

And you are telling us all this now?

After creating such a big drama.

And when you also

need to give a speech.

So what should I do?

Why does he fear when

no one can see him?

But I can see them.

Hear that. Then it's impossible

to bring about a change.

Let's record his voice.

Who will know whether he is talking

or a tape recorder is playing?

Good idea.

We will record your voice.

Leave that, first repair this.

Hurry up.

I don't have time to waste.

How are you, Akhrot?

Hello, uncle!

Do it!

I have to record in this?

- Yes.

It's very old.

Yes, it's of your generation.

Hey, you are a champion.

Come on, star-t talking.

Should I speak here?

Just speak.

What should I say?

What are you doing?

Don't think that you are

talking to a tape recorder.

It won't come from your heart.

Just think that there is a crowd

standing over here. Just imagine.

You won't feel scared and it will

come from your hear-t as well.

Where's Bhoothnath?

When will his speech star-t'?

Imagine that the day of your

death has been decided.

And you have been

given three choices.

You can die in any

of these three ways.

..by hanging yourself.

..by coming under a train or..

..by having cyanide.

So, you will think that hanging

yourself is troublesome.

It will hum if you

jump in front of a train.

Having cyanide is the best option.

No pain, no trouble, easy death.

This is the dilemma you

face every five years.

In the form of elections.

Should you vote for someone who

has scammed 2000 crores rupees?

Or the one who scammed

1000 crores rupees?

Or the one who scammed

200 crores rupees?

Now compared to 2000 crores rupees

and 1000 crores rupees..

"the one with 200 crores rupees

scam seems honest.

So let's vote for him.

Though he'll loot us but

at least less than others.

Similarly when compared to people

who have committed 15 or 9 murders..

..a person who has committed

2 murders seems honest.

So let's vote for him.

What can we do?

We don't have any other choice.

This is the biggest

problem of our country.

We should vote for the one

we like the most.

But we vote for

the one we least dislike.

This is not what happens

in Sweden and Finland.

Sweden and Finland are

two great countries in Europe.

This is not what happens there.

There if people don't like

any of the candidates.

..do you know whom do they

give their precious vote to?

They give their precious vote

to their favorite cartoon.

Hence Donald Duck is a very

popular leader out there.

So what will happen

if this happens in our country?

From Baliya, Chhota Bheem will win.

From Kanpur, Chacha Chaudhari.

From Nasik, Doremon.

And from Satara, Pokemon.

Unfortunately, in our country,

we are allowed.

...to vote for ministers

but not cartoons.

So, who will you vote for?

Tell me, who will you vote for?

- What happened?

- Nothing, the mic is not working. - Gone.

What happened?

Where did he disappear?

We are here to hear you speak.

What happened?

- Say something.

We can't see him.

Now we can't even hear him.

Did he just run away?

It's feels good to hear you speak,

Bhoothnath.

Look..

I am not here to

ask you to vote for me.

I am here just to ask you to vote.

It's okay if you don't want

to vote for Bhoothnath.

It's okay if you don't

want to vote for Bhau.

Press the "None

of the above" button.

But please vote.

So that in future

if Bhoothnath wins..

...those who don't like

Bhoothnath don't feel..

..that Bhoothnath wouldn't have

won if they would've voted.

In a democracy,

your vote is your voice.

You can make your country listen

to you through your vote.

So speak up. Please.

Say something at least.

Those who don't vote don't

want the country to hear them.

So it's time to tell them that

if they don't wish to speak..

..if they have nothing to say, then

we won't want to hear them either.

Sir..

Yes?

- Please explain.

Do you have a Voter ID Card?

No, sir.

I can't hear you.

Speak louder.

I don't have it, sir.

I still cannot hear you.

Speak louder.

Got it, sir.

He understood.

So, it is time to change.

And you have to bring

about this change.

Excuse me,

will you take me to Bandra?

Do you have a Voter ID Card?

No. Why?

Where do you want to go?

Bandra.

- Please speak a little louder.

I can't hear you. Bandra!

- What?

Have you lost your mind?

Taxi!

Mr. Magan, can I have sugar,

two kilos?

I said, I want two kilos of sugar.

Uncle, please give me a packet of biscuit.

- Can't you hear me?

I've been asking for sugar.

Here.

Aunty, first get

a Voter ID Card made.

What are you saying?

Are you crazy?

I cannot hear you.

- Are you deaf?

I love you.

- I can't hear you.

I love you!

I love you.

I can't hear you.

Speak louder.

I can't hear you.

10 rupees.

Speak louder. Louder.

10 rupees.
