I was supposed to receive

a money order.

Okay. From where did

you get this garland?

- Oh, this one..

- Did you get married? Where is the bride?

I've left her at the hospital.

She's about to delivery.

- Gamble away, you fool!

- Your move.

The government has felicitated

me with this garland.

Felicitated? Why?

The government had organised

a programme..

..for the promotion of bio-fuel.

- Shut up!

- Fresh flowers! White and fresh flowers.

At the poetry recital programme,

I recited such a poem..

..that people started to applaud.

It was amazing!

Had you been there you would've

seen it for yourself.

Order tea. I'll recite it for you.

Recite your poem at

Modern Madan's salon.

I'll order tea for you.

At least some people will flee

and make their way here.

Stop!

Who should we beat up?

Shut up! Look, what's written there?

'At reduced rates.

Massage, shave, hair-cut.'

I'll get it all done. Come on.

Mr. Daamchand, you had a

hair-cut the other day.

Let them grow.

What if he increases

the rates by then?

I will cut my hair shorter so

I don't have to spend anytime soon.

Will he cut it properly?

Why not?

You threw him out of your mill.

Think. Your neck is on his chair.

He has a pair of scissors.

What if he cuts your ears and

neck and says it was a mistake?

So what? We'll break

his hands and legs.

What's the use of breaking his hands

and legs after he has cut my ears?

So let's beat him up before

you get a haircut.

- You fool! Should I slap you? Come on.

- Let's go.

Billu! From now on,

you'll cut my hair.

Look, I've come to give

you good business.

Master!

- My back.

- Get him up, Master!

Hurry up! Hold him!

Be careful.

- Be careful.

- Come on! Be careful.

Be careful.

What happened, Billu?

He broke one of the legs of my chair.

And my master's back too.

Let's take him to Tiwari's hospital.

Not him. He charges too much money.

Take me to some other hospital.

The cheapest one.

This one's for Rs.8,

and that one's for Rs.10.

Asparagus, red pepper, broccoli.

Do you have any of these?

Why are you abusing us?

I'm not abusing you.

These are the names of vegetables.

Looks like I have to order

them from the city.

There are so many fresh vegetables.

Don't you eat these?

I'll need them all.

Listen, vendors!

Over the next 20-25 days, send

us all the vegetables..

..that are available in this market.

What will the villagers eat then?

Are you throwing a party?

Has your wish been fulfilled?

Shooting.. There's going

to be a film shot here.

A film shoot? In our village?

Is there a grocery store here?

- A film crew has come to the village! Come on!

- Come on.

Let's go.

Is this the biggest

store in the village?

Yes, sir. It is.

We'll require food grains and

flour for 400 people daily.

This shop of yours is too small.

I'll get goods from the

neighbouring villages.

They'll be happy to give them to you.

Nobody here has ever seen

a film being shot.

Good.

- Who's the hero? Hero?

- He will explain it to you.

He'll tell you everything.

- Who's the hero?

- 'Sahir Khan.'

Sahir. Sahir.

Sahir. Sahir.

Sahir. Sahir.

- Yes..

This is the police commissioner

of this area.

- Welcome to Budbuda, sir.

- Thank you.

We have arranged for your security.

The police will keep the

people out of your way.

Thank you for all your help.

If you don't mind, could you take a..

- ..photograph with my family?

- Yes, sure. Hello, ma'am.

- My kids.

- Hi, kids. How are you? Come a little.. Please. - Yes.

Looks like everyone knows

about my programme.

I thought we'd film in the village

peacefully away from the crowd.

But it's the same thing here.

Inspector, commissioner, DSP,

everyone is all ready with garlands.

I am honoured that you came here.

- I am honoured.

- Who are you?

How can I praise myself?

Charandas Chaubey, the manager

of this guest house.

Welcome! Welcome!

Take this. Come on.

- I have renovated the place for you.

- Okay.

This sofa was totally ruined.

I removed it and brought new ones.

- Thank you. I removed the earthen pot and got a bridge.

- Bridge?

- The cooler.

- Oh, fridge.

Come in. Come in.

- Come in.

- Hi, guys.

- If you want to wrestle, I have the equipment.

- Why would I wrestle?..

Come here.

Look at this. This is the bedroom.
