Hello. - Mr. Amar.

I'm sorry, but I have

some bad news for you.

Uncle!

My Uncle is no more, Mr Khanna!

Uncle.. - Son, I can understand..

..of the Uncle who loved you

more than a father would.

I can very well understand that.

Here's a note for you..

Read it.

Don't begin to think that

I have been murdered.

I have, actually,

committed suicide.

The excruciating pain of the brain-

tumor had made life miserable for me.

I wasn't going to live

for very long anyway.

The doctor had given me

just six months more.

But I didn't have the courage..

..to put up with the pain

for those six months.

Which is why I have

committed suicide.

No one has anything

to do with my death.

And neither should anyone

be blamed for it.

"Yours, Ramkumar Saxena"

I couldn't save your Uncle, inspite

of being your family physician.

I couldn't ever imagine that your

Uncle would turn out to be so weak.

I agree that he was suffering

from many ailments, but..

..I had told him that he could

recover after an operation.

You may take the body away for

a post-mortem, Inspector.

Amar.

Haven't you gone

to sleep, aunt?

Having witnessed the horror

of death at this age..

..how could I find slumber

in my eyes?

Come and have your food, my son.

- I'm not hungry, "Maasi".

Don't you know what

"Mausi" (maternal-aunt) means?

"Mausi" means "Maa-si" (literal

meaning:
As one's own mother).

And you don't turn

your mother down.

Besides, what will you gain

by remaining in mourning?

That won't do, my son.

You are the one who will have to

bear the mantle of the..

..huge family business

that you have inherited.

You will bear this

with courage.

Yes, son.

Mister..

- What is it?!

Can I have these

two little pieces?

Smart alec! They look like

two little pieces, do they?

They're immensely useful!

They cost money.

Cost money?

- That's right.

How much?

- Five Rupees!

Five Rupees for this?!

- That's right.

Your lust for money has

rendered you mentally bankrupt!

My naive little fellow!

What will you do with money?

When has money helped someone

that it will now help you?

The Emperor Akbar was born empty-

handed, and died that way, too.

Alexander came into this world empty-

handed and departed without anything.

The great King Haroon faced

a similar fate!

Which is why someone has

wisely said..

..that the very money you spend

your life toiling for..

..turns your enemy one day.

Money brings with itself a lot

of tensions and worries.

A man loses his hair and

then becomes bald!

He falls prey to the evil vices..

..takes to drinking and

visiting nautch-girls.

The dreaded diseases then get to him

and he dies a miserable death!

And even after he's dead..

..his family fights over the

money he's left behind!

They make murderous assaults on

one another and kill each other!

Do you want your folks to shed

blood after you're no more?

No, Sir! I don't want any

bloodshed in my house!

You must, therefore, do away with

your dreams of money!

And let me have these

two pieces of leather.

My God! Take them away..

I don't want a price for them!

You should have

said that earlier.

I wouldn't have behaved

like a conjurer!

It's good. You've got some

really good leather.

Will that be a good sole

for my shoes?

Your shoes will be strong

and last many years, too.

That is it.

You want a sole fixed, don't you?

But where are your shoes?

I've done half the job.

Now you must do the rest.

Pardon me?

- I mean..

..I've got you the sole. Now

you must produce the rest.

I see! I surely will. But that's

going to cost you money, you know!

Money, did you say?

- That's right.

Will you quietly make my shoes now,

or must I be the conjurer again?

No! please! please don't

pull that act on us again!

I'll explain that to you..

Just let him go! Let him go!

It's good that someone has

at last understood me.

Explain to him and tell him what

being a conjurer entails.

In the meantime, I'll give

my eyes a look-over..

Hey, I will explain it to you.

Rohit?

Good morning, sir.

Has everyone arrived?

- Yes, sir.

Good morning. - Good morning.

Are there rooms for everyone?

- Yes, Sir.

Yes, sir.

Rohit! Listen, son!

Hey! Who are you?

Where do you think you're going?

I must meet that gentleman..

You want to meet the

Young Master, eh?

That's right.

It's very important.

There's a meeting being held inside.

Come back after a couple of hours.

A couple of hours?

- That's right.

Everybody here is aware that

our company, Khaitan India Limited..

..manufactures fans for every need.

What distinguishes our product

is that apart from ensuring..

..high quality,

we even maintain competitive prices.

That's one reason why we

record brisk sales in the country.

The reason behind calling

this meeting is to..

..resolve to maintain

our high quality..

..so that we can,

not only in India..

..but compete with other companies

in the international market, too.

And thank you very much.

Greetings, Sir. - Greetings.

Rohit! Where have you been, son?

How are you?!

Who's that?

I'm sorry, but my name is Amar.

Who is this gentleman?

- You know that, son..

But why are you speaking like this?

Perhaps you don't want to reveal

your past to these people here.

Very well. Don't tell them anything.

But atleast come with

me and visit Seema for once.

Who's Seema?

- Don't you know Seema?!

The girl who is head

over heels in love with you!

Who lives only to

get one glimpse of you!

The girl who couldn't either live

or die, after hearing of your death..

..don't you know that Seema too?

Every father dreams of seeing

his daughter settle down in life.

But all I want is

to see my daughter live.

Come and meet her just once..

She might yet survive.

She may speak yet again, after

a year and a half of stony silence.

I beg of you.. I beg at your feet!

What are you doing?!

You're really mistaken.

I'm not Rohit, I'm Amar.

I own this company.

Neither do I know you,

nor have I fallen in love with anyone.

Deepak. - Yes, sir.

Let him have some money

for his daughter's treatment.

Okay?

Come on, friends.

Listen, son..

You were right. I am indeed mistaken.

You can't be Rohit.

And this money bears out that fact.

Had you been Rohit, you wouldn't

have thrust these alms in my hand.

Keep this money, son..

May the Almighty bless you with more.

Actually, the state I'm driven to,

because of my daughter's illness..

..makes people take me for a beggar.

When I saw you, I got the

feeling that Rohit is still alive.

And that my daughter might yet live,

after seeing you alive.

I'm sorry for having wasted your time.

May you grow richer.. May

the Lord bless you with more success!

Excuse me..

Which hospital is your daughter in?

Dear.. atleast speak something

Look who's here to meet you..

It's Rohit, my child!

Hey, Rohit has come, dear.

Rohit is here.

Let her cry to her heart's content.

There can't be a better

cure for the shock she's borne.
