Abhay Kumar!

He came and sat between

the minister and I.

I ignored him.

He thinks he's a famous man.

I have read about you

in Filmcity magazine.

I've heard that you are

very controversial.

There is enmity between the two

Khans. I just heard about it.

Excuse me. What was your name again?

- Mr. Dubey.

- Yes. Mr. Dubey, you talk as if you know the actors well.

The film fraternity is

a family. A family.

- There is kinship amongst us.

- Okay.

And just like every family,

we love each other..

..and have our disagreements.

But this is very personal.

Do you understand personal?

So, let it be.

But every one of you have

a few things in common.

Money, arrogance and fame.

And you think the world

can't exist with you.

We've come here to talk

about the school.

Why should we talk

about other things?

What? Why would..

- Sir, will you attend the programme?

- He will.

He will come because the minister

has told him to do so.

Just assume that he will come.

- Dubey!

- Yes.

Keep this in mind. I don't dance

at anyone else's tunes.

Filming may seem like a lot

of song and dance to you.

But it is a job for us. Hard work.

The entire unit has

come here to work.

We're not here to attend

functions and parties.

Madam principal, please don't

misunderstand me.

I want to meet your kids.

And all my fans.

But we are behind schedule.

So, it's not possible.

- Sir, I apologise.

- Oh, no. It's not your fault. It's okay.

We can invite some other Khan.

Mr. Dubey, you have some

misunderstanding about film stars.

In real life we are

just ordinary people.

We like little things.

We find joy in little things.

We also get angry about

little things.

So madam principal, before

I slap him, please take him away.

Come on. Let's go.

- Just a minute. Please, come.

- What?

Please come aside.

This isn't fair. You

are bullying us!

You are bullying us.

You are bullying us!

- We can come some other time to meet him.

- Some other time?

- I'll introduce you!

- Are we going to Mumbai to meet him?

The filming is about to end.

We want to meet him here!

Yes, that's for sure.

- I am sorry.

- No, No! It's okay.

Thank you, madam principal..

..for removing him from your class.

- What can I do? Some people are like that.

- Yes.

You get such stupid

people everywhere.

There is such an uproar outside.

They just want one look at you.

People don't come to school.

In this heat, they crowd

around your film shoot.

Because one insolent man..

..don't break so many hearts.

Please. Our villagers will get

a good look at you. Don't refuse.

Okay. I will come but,

keep that idiot at a distance.

- Okay?

- Yes.

Okay, I will come for a few minutes

on the last day of filming.

- The 16th? Is it okay?

- Okay.

- Yes. Thank you.

- Thank you.

- I told you. You can't meet Sahir Khan!

- Who are you to stop us?

- Should I hit him?

- Why are you asking me? Hit him!

Hey look what's happening.

Charge!

Well done! Open the gates!

Where is Billu? Have

you trampled on him?

Hey you stupid.

Move.

One autograph. Autograph. Mr. Sahir.

Catch him! Stop him!

Let me go!

Sahir! Sahir!

One autograph please.

- Sahir!

- Stop him!

- Be careful!

- Sahir!

One autograph, Sahir....

No!

You illiterate people,

do you have any idea..

..what a grave crime

you have committed?

Z-security is given to very,

very important people.

And your group is trying

to get passed them.

You'll go to jail for 15 years

for attempted murder.

We've just gone to meet

Mr. Sahir Khan.

- Why?

- Doomchand wants to make a movie.

You went there just like that.

Did you take an appointment?

We didn't take an appointment.

His friend was with us.

- Which friend?

- Billu! Billu, the barber.

Idiots! Think again.

How can an ordinary barber

introduce you to Sahir Khan?

Like smoke and cigarettes go

together. Wine and intoxication.

Similarly, Billu is Sahir's friend.

- Who said so?

- The whole of Budbuda says so.

And who told the whole of Budbuda.

What proof do you have?

- Of what?

- Of their friendship?

What proof do you have?

- Daamchand!

- What?

Did Mr. Sahir go to

his shop to meet him?

Did he call? Did he write a letter?

Did he click a photograph with him?

He bluffed and you believed him.

You pampered him with song and dance,

'Billu, the Terrible!'

Where is your Billu, the Terrible?

Rs. 25,000! I bought a new chair

worth Rs. 25000 for him.

I have incurred a loss

because of him.

Several scissors.

Boxes of Denim powder and perfume.

Cream and also mirrors.

And small plastic comb.

Who will remind me of it? Your dad?

From your talks, it looks like he

was fooling the whole village.

Yes, I've been telling

them since the start.

Money, land, jewellery and gold.

And even eatables.

God knows what he took from others.

His house was in ruins.

And now it looks like a mansion.

He had taken Rs. 2000 from me and

also from Jhallan. Right, Jhallan?

Yes? Yes! Rs. 700!

Yes! Yes!

He had taken it.

Why don't you do this?

Why don't you file a complaint

against Billu?

I'll send him to jail for fraud.

Give us the form.

We will give our signatures.

Hey! Get everything from the shop

and put them in the jeep.

- Come on. Get it out!

- Don't leave anything.

- Master!

- Should we beat him up?

The police will do it.

- Ok. - Get up!

- Pick it up!

Get all the stuff.

- Why?

- Get the chair.

- Don't leave even the comb.

- Take this.

Sir! What's all this?

Rascal! The police started

beating us so you ran away?

You are Sahir Khan's friend!

The scoundrel had the

whole village fooled.

- Take everything!

- Count it!

- Don't leave even the soap.

- Yes.

I've never come across

a fraud like you.

Did you think you

would go scot-free?

You're more dangerous than a snake.

Dryer! Did you get the dryer?

We got that. But he used up

two bottles of powder..

..and four tins of cream.

- Write it down. Put it under his name.

- Yes.

- We'll get something from his house.

- Yes.

I won't allow you to do conduct

business in this area.

- Take all the cash you can.

- Yes. I'll do it.

- I'll deduct it from the interest.

- Yes.

You'll spend the rest of your life

shaving the prisoners in jail.

He's a thief! He's a fraud!

Sahir Khan doesn't know him.

Don't come to his shop.

- Let's go!

- Come on.

- Come on.

- What nuisance! Let's go.

Uncle..

Billu, the Fraud!

Go home and rest.

I'll shut your shop and leave

the key at your house.

Go and rest.

Who is Billu, also known

as Bilas Pardesi?

- Why? What's the matter?

- Are you Billu?

Not me. This is him.

Come to the police station.

What have I done, sir?

You fraud! You've embezzled

people's money.

You fooled them and now you want

to know what you've done?

Come to the police station.

I've done nothing, sir.

- Don't argue.

- The villagers must have been mistaken.

Everything will be crystal

clear soon enough.

You can talk to the DSP.

- Mishra, take him.

- Yes, sir.

- Sir!
