Chandni Bar Page #7

Synopsis: Mumtaz is a village girl whose family is killed in communal riots. She moves to Mumbai with her uncle, the only family member she has left. They are desperately poor and her uncle persuades her to become a bar girl at Chandni Bar. This is merely temporary, he promises, until he gets a job. Mumtaz is a shy girl who loathes the work, but she forces herself to dance and flirt. However, the uncle doesn't keep his promise; he lives on her earnings, drinking them away, and never gets a job. He adds one final, unforgivable crime to the list when he gets drunk and rapes her. By this time she has caught the eye of a gangster called Potiya Sawant. When she tells Potiya what her uncle did to her, Potiya decides to "defend her honor." Potiya shoots the uncle. Mumtaz, bereft of any male protection in the dangerous slums, marries Potiya. She is determined to make the best of things. She leaves the bar and stays home to raise her two children, whom she carefully protects from the world of prostitutio

Habib Brother

There's no problem

about money

But,if I give you today

It'll finish tomorrow

You'll again come to ask

Like this,you'll get habituated

of asking

You do one thing

What'll I do in Dubai?

You'll earn money

Look Mumtaz,this is your age

to earn money

There our Sheikh's will introduce

you to proper people

Isn't it Madan?

Stay there for 5-7 years

then,come back

By then,you'll earn so much money

that your life'll be secured

These Arabians have a lot of cash

understood

What?Habib Brother!

Have you left rowdyism

& started pimping?

What did you say?

What did you say?

You called me a pimp?

You wicked woman,b*tch!

Get out from here

You b*tch,because of Pothia

I was helping you & you!

She calls Habib Brother a pimp

this cheap beer bar girl

Why did you produce

2 children?

If you had that much pride,you

could become the Concubine of a rich man

You call me a pimp

you b*tch

I'll get acid thrown on your face

get out from here

In my area,she calls

me pimp?

Take a bowl in the hand

& beg

Don't show me your face again

Calling Habib Brother

Okay,we'll go

to mummy

Quiet baby quiet,see how mummy

is dancing,how beautiful...

Quiet quiet,quiet

Deepa

- Yes

Your customer has come

Oh!this customer had to come

at this time only

Come come

-quiet quiet...

Ohlstop crying...Stop...

Oh!oh!payal baby,what happened

Why are you crying?...

Darling mummy is working,you're

hungry?...do you want milk?

I'll send your mummy

don't cry

A never ending problem of my

helplessness had started

The beer bar that I had

abandoned

Became my support

By engulfing my ambitions

at the beer bar

I started fulfilling the

needs of my children

lnspite of the noise all around me

there was a vaccum in my life

Deepa was fed of

her man

He would come drunk late

in the night & assaut her

And on one night,in his

drunkardness

Gokul killed Deepa

Her ambition of becoming a mother

ended in her death

Deepa's absence was

pinching me

But I had lost so

much,that-

I was not grieved

Dancing daily in the

beer bar

Had become a part of

my life

I had forbidden you

Isn't it?

What do you want to be

when you grow up?

You'll also go in the

bar to dance like me

Why am I sending you to school

to educate you?

This is not goog child

this dancing & singing

I am educating you to make you

come up good in life

So that,I don't have to do

all this...come

Come,let's all go out

Mummy I want boneless

chicken

Tell me child,what do

you want?

Mummy boneless chicken

How much is it

brother?

Ten rupees a plate,how many

should I give?

Give me two plates!

What happened to the errand

I had told you

Why are you taking tension

I'll do your job,I'm there

It is a matter of tension,you

understand it

Whose child is he?

Is he from Pothia

or from somebody else?

Hey,come here

- My name is Abhay

Look at him,he's

too smart

He's exactly like Pothia

hey,what do you say?-

We'll give him excellent

training -

He'll even excel Pothia

I think,I'm right

Mumtaz,Uma,he's right,send

him to me for the training

Hey sister,take the boneless

chicken and go

Mumtaz,make it fast,children

are getting late

I'm coming

You take this

Alright,I'll drop them

and come

Pay concentration on studies

don't keep having fun

I felt very happy on

that day-

The day when my children

started going to an English school

And for that,lqbal brother

helped me a lot

To educate children,to take

care of all their happiness-

That's it,this became my life

and also my dream

Didn't know how 7 years

passed off

Abhay and Payal had

now grown up

As I grew older,like other

girls in the Beer bar-

Even I had become a

waitress from a Dancer

I'll make arrangements for you

don't worry,I'll see to it

Mumtaz,got tired?

- Yes brother

Today,I had left early

from house-

Payal had to go to

her school

And Mumtaz,how are

your both children?

They are fine

Abhay is too intelligent

at his studies

He say's,he'll become

a lawyer

And even Payal...

- Hey Mumtaz,don't see big dreams

But,never forget something-

A person should never think

more than his level

But brother,it's different with

Abhay and Payal

Yes..it's okay with Abhay

he's a boy

It hardly matters,if he

becomes a lawyer or not

If he doesn't become,he can

toil and eke his livelihood

But,you should think

about Payal

Now look,I accomodated,both the

daughters of Rani at my Chembur bar

And that Lalita's daughter...

Alright,you do one thing

send Payal to me

I'm opening my new Bar

at Meera Road,isn't it

I'll name my bar

after your daughter

She'll earn more than you

- No brother...

Don't say any such thing

regarding Payal-

I'll never bring my daughter

in this line

What?you'll not let her

come in this line? -

This was the work which

supported you at that time -

When all your pimp's left

you in lurch

Brother,I know

But,we both know,how

this line is-

My Payal will never

come here

Mumtaz,there's a customer

for you

Bloody in the last 15 days

this is the 3rd extortion case

But,how is this done?

There's nothing,make a 1 rupee

phone call from a local phone

Give a threat and take away

the cash,what else?

I've heard,that Dhukad lane

Jhandu,our maxi -

He has also earned money

in the same way

Come here...

What happened?

Hey Hero,yesterday why didn't

you come for playing cricket?

Sit down,will you have

half fry?

No,I've come to take the parcel of

minced meat for Yunus brother

Dumb head,you'll take only

after it gets cooked,isn't it

Or will you take it half-cooked

and ask Yunus brother -

To get it cooked by

his concubine?

Hey...don't keep

having fun

Guddu,what I suggest is...

That even we make a phone call

to some Businessman

Enjoy the cash,what...?

Hey,Is it that easy to

plunder cash?

Friend,there's nothing in it

a threat and an abuse-

Both of these,take the sh*t

out of the best

People don't even go to

the police -

Because,they know,even

the police will finger -

Most of them,pay off

out of fear -

What...what do you say...?

I'm right,isn't it

Abhay,your parcel is ready

take it and go

I'll leave...

Come back after giving the

parcel to Yunus brother

No,I've to study

What. . . .?

- I've to study

Hey Donkey,come here...

Come here

This is not the era

of studies -

It's the era of pistol...

understood

His sh*t has come out...

I'll leave

His sh*t has come out

After seeing the pistol,the

sh*t out of him came out

Mummy,Abhay brother keeps roaming

around in the street -

With his friends,Mohin

and his gang

And among them there's

one boy Sunil -

He keeps smoking all day

Is it?

Yes mummy

- I'll talk to him

Take the spinach also

How are you?

- I'm fine

How are you?

- I'm fine too

You were not to be seen

after you left the Beer bar?
