Bol Bachchan Page #6

Synopsis: When a child falls into the well of the temple and Abbas breaks the temple's lock to save the child. When Prithviraj arrives at the scene, Ravi says Abbas's name as Abhishek Bachchan to avoid religious controversies of a temple being broken open by a Muslim. Prithviraj hires Abhishek Bachchan (Abbas) and is happy with his work, but Ravi and his friends have to come up with a new plan when Prithviraj spots Abbas celebrating Eid as a Muslim. Abbas and the others convince Prithviraj that the one celebrating Eid was actually 'Abbas', an effeminate man and classical Kathak dancer. Things become worse for Abbas and Ravi when Prithviraj kindly hires Abbas for teaching Kathak to his sister Radhika (Prachi Desai). The more Abbas tries to manage his dual life without letting Prithviraj know, the more he has to lie to cover up other lies; this forms the crux of the story.

Shut up!

He isn't Prithvi...

l am.

Greetings.

Abbas...

why haven't you kept a moustache?

Because l never got one!

Why not?

Because l'm more like my mother.

Anyway, tell me,

why did you ask me to come here?

Your brother said that

you are a good dancer.

For fun, sir. Fun.

Abhishek, what's this?

Not Abhishek,

but his brother, Abbas.

One's a 'man',

the other a 'dancer'.

Radhika...

he will be your dance

instructor from tomorrow.

What?

l've taken the onus to help you.

But l can't come here.

ln that case,

you can't leave this place.

All day l look

after my sick mother.

Then you come here at night.

l will not come!

Fine!

Lock him up and call Abhishek!

l will come.

Nine o'clock.

Listen...

Brother, why don't you check...

if he even knows to dance

or is merely faking it...

She is right!

Let me see your talent.

- Maakhan!

- Sir!

Music!

Dance!

Pappu!

Pappu control!

Abbas!

Abbas, stop!

Enog is enog!

Starting tomorrow,

you can teach Radhika dancing.

Because a fish out of water...

'fish and chips without water'...

is like dancing in the dark...

'disco dancer without

electric meter'!

Listen, Hari...

there's an easy way

to go from fat to 'fit-fat'.

- you only need to Let go of

three things. - What's that, sir?

Breakfast, lunch and dinner!

Sir, why did you give Abbas ajob?

Shastri...

it's not often that you

meet such 'blue-coated' people.

'Blue-coated'?

'Out of the blues!'

Oh no, sir. He is useless.

- But He is of use to me.

- Sir!

l mean, he will be

Radhika's dance instructor.

My sister will be in safe hands.

Abbas, you were brilliant.

lf the record company was there...

they would have launched

a remix album of your performance!

And like me, even you would

be world famous here in Ranakpur.

Tell me something...

your father...

Father?

Shastri!

Oh!

He did help me

with ajob but where?

l mean, with that

mountain of a warrior!

Not just a warrior...

wild buffalo!

- Forget it.

- How can l Forget it?

'Hard work is the

keyhole to saxophone'?

Saxophone?

He can lift a 100 kilos but...

he doesn't have an

ounce of intelligence.

lf he had, in a minute

he would've realized that...

l am Abhishek Bachchan

and also Abbas Ali.

- Why are you saying all of that?

- What's wrong with you?

Great!

You really are

good at staging acts.

l came here to tell you to stop your

brother from coming to my place.

But now l will stop my brother...

stop him from trusting

frauds like you!

He's very simple and naive too...

and you are taking

advantage of that fact.

l'm going... to tell him the truth.

Radhika...

you may tell your

brother the truth.

But at least listen

to why we had to lie.

Radhika, a man doesn't fulfill

his life merely by living it.

He fulfills it by taking care of

the responsibilities of his family.

Abbas had some dreams for me.

But our family property in Delhi was

snatched away from us illegally.

Abbas lost his job.

Uncle Shastri brought

us here to Ranakpur.

And to save a child from drowning,

Abbas broke the temple lock.

And to save the situation...

l said Abbas Ali's

name is Abhishek Bachchan.

But when Prithviji gave

Abbas such a good job...

our lie didn't seem that wrong.

Radhika, nobody makes a mistake...

mistakes happen.

What you've said is right.

lf you want to tell Prithviji

the truth, please go ahead.

You know my brother very well!

lf he finds out the truth...

he will break all of you to pieces.

lt's because of this

fear that we couldn't confess.

Radhika...

now you may do as you wish.

Listen...

You may start teaching

me dance tomorrow.

Goodbye.

Ghost!

Ghosts are a bundle of lies.

She is Abhishek's sister,

Sania Bachchan.

Prithviji, l'm glad you are here.

Wonder where Ravi

and his friends are.

lf you don't mind,

will you rehearse with me?

l don't have any experience.

Your eyes say it all.

You only have to deliver

these four lines.

And then it's my dialogue.

l can't deliver...

l mean, say these lines.

Listen...

l know to say, 'listen'.

Excellent!

So look at me and say these lines.

Okay.

Start.

Listen to what l have to say!

Goodness gracious!

Are you admitting your

love or making a war declaration.

Take it easy.

Lis...ten... l... have...

to... say... some... thing...

Now it seems like you are

a toy that has been wound up!

Let it come from your heart, okay?

Start!

Listen...

listen to me...

at least listen to me...

listen,

'l say to something have...'

Why don't you listen...

Enough!

You can't do it!

The character is admitting

that he is in love...

Prithviji, you have to feel

every word, not merely rattle it!

But you...

never mind!

You can't do this.

Listen...

there's something l have to say.

Don't shoot arrows

from those eyes...

Don't take my life, my love...

Should then my

soul leave my body...

Hail Prithviji!

Hurray!

Hail Prithviji!

Hurray!

Prithviji, unbelievable!

l have a few words for you...

'You carried weights and

now your words have weight!'

Wow!

'There's a spark of romance

in this action hero!'

Wow!

Thanks for the 'complan boy'.

Prithviji, l have a small request.

We have a heroine for our play,

why don't you play the hero?

Oh no, no, no!

This is not my cup of 'lassi'.

No, sir! lt's a request!

Please!

Listen, l won't be able to do this.

But...

l could produce your play.

Make it grand!

That's amazing!

You have my support.

Hail Prithviji!

Hurray!

We got a producer!

Wow, Abhishek!

You've noted every penny.

You are a 'mind blow dryer'!

Maakhan, a real gem!

Yes sir... no sir...

Radhika, what are you watching?

Golmaal.

l lied to you hence ''no'' sir.

Shut up!

l saw you in the stadium...

l was shocked to see you like that.

With that moustache

you look so different.

Yes l'm doing a double role...

of twin brothers...

One has a moustache

and the other doesn't.

lt's not your fault.

- What do you mean?

- Don't get so worked up!

My father used to say...

What is it your father said?

Sir, my father said...

'With a million bricks of

hard work, man builds his home.'

Sir.

Priceless words, my dear!

Just like your father, you

should break it all brick by brick!

Sir?

What are you trying to say?

The one you saw

was not Ramprasad...

He was Laxmanprasad

Dhashrathprasad Sharma...

my identical twin brother.

Sir, please come.

Where?

Come with me...

l want to show you something.

Please come.

See.

l have a moustache, he doesn't.

Golmaal.

l've seen it many times.

l'm sure you remember the story.

Yes, Amol Palekar spins a web

of lies about a twin brother and...

l hope he isn't spinning

a similar web of lies around you.

You are my boss, if you

want to sack me, please go ahead.

Me?

Yes.

But why would Amol

Palekar lie to me?

Not Amol Palekar,

Abhishek Bachchan!

Have you lost it?

You're equating

a film to real life!

No, l'm equating

real life to a film.

But these things

happen in real life.

lsn't Sania identical to Apeksa?

You think a obedient
