- Hey..

Let go, I am smoking that.

Hey, give him a cigarette.

Oh, God! - Give it.. - Hey!

Give me a big one.

I'll slap you.

Just because he asked for one

will you give only one!

Give him a full pack!

He has a big heart.

He will pay you.

Boss, my wife..

I saw my wife with my neighbour..

I feel disgusted to tell you.

Poor lady.

His wife is very pious.

She works as a maid

and educates her children.

He is born a lazy bugger.

Drinking, gambling, races.

He's into all kinds of addictions.

You can call him the king of vice.

And after he comes out,

he'll find someone to con.

He defames his wife saying that

she has an illicit relationship.

In that way, he arranges for money

to smoke and drink for a day.

And when he goes home

after indulging in all vices

his wife and children, unable to

bear the stench, go away from him.

This problem doesn't exist

only in his house.

Whoever smokes has the same issue

in their respective homes.

This problem shouldn't spread

across more people in the country!

If we have to clean this country,

we have to clean him, first.

"Give up cigarettes.

Give up smoking."

"You don't have to burn

and go to the grave."

"Have a drag.."

"Have a drag.."

"Have a drag.."

"Have a drag.."

"Have a drag.."

Don't smoke cigarettes.

Hey!

Good..

When I look at the work that

you do, I feel proud of you.

I am proud because I'll be proud

to call you my associate.

Keep up the good work.

But wherever you go,

mention my name

and then begin your work.

It's like worshipping God.

By the way,

can you give me Rs. 200?

I am not able to maintain the boys.

Please.

Hey, I am a CM candidate!

When I become the Chief Minister

I will give you the entire area.

Please give me Rs. 200.

Please.

Manager!

- Sir.

What is my programme for tomorrow?

There is no work tomorrow, sir.

You're completely free.

Hey, your phone is ringing.

So what if there's

no work tomorrow?

I don't like that. Find some work.

- Hello. - Okay, sir.

Boss, three boys are creating

a ruckus saying that

they want to see you.

They are not girls, right?

They're boys.

Call them up here.

Let's kill some time too.

- Okay, send them up here.

You've grown so big

after eating a lot of Biriyani.

Boss, Yediyur Rangarao's

Dum Biriyani.

Why don't you die eating it?

You fool.

Here. This is a notice for you.

- Oh.

Hey, you vile.

- Boss?

I can't read Kannada,

read it for me.

Boss, it's about

a foolish organisation.

If you don't close your factory

and serve the people

then you'll be cursed by

Lord Manjunath of Dharmasthala

face the wrath of Lord Venkatesh

be cursed by his family God and

face the wrath of your family God.

If you don't give in to any of this

he'll give a piece of his mind!

That's what is written here, boss.

He can do such things

only to people like you

not to good people like me.

Where is your great leader?

Bring him in.

I am free tomorrow anyway.

Let's talk.

It's you!

People, who were once beggars,

are flaunting their riches now.

Hey, manager.

- Sir.

He is mentally retarded.

He fell in love with my daughter

and went crazy.

Mr. Rangaraj.

I was neither a beggar

nor was I mentally retarded.

I'm the president

of the 'Dum Maro Dum' organisation.

It would be better if you accept

the notice and close the factory.

Or else..

I will have to get it shut down.

Hey, Raja, you bring

an ornament seller from Majestic

a 'Chakna' seller from Kalasipalya

and a perfume seller

from Shivajinagar

and create an organisation.

Do you expect that to threaten me?

To dogs like you,

if I throw money like dog biscuits

you'll come and fall to my feet.

I'm not a street dog to chew

the bones that you throw at me.

I'm a hunting dog

that has come to hunt you!

You had said something

the other day.

You said that I don't have

even 10 people with me.

Today, I, Rajkumar..

I'm popular throughout

the state of Karnataka.

Look, it's best if you listen to me

and shut the cigarette factory down.

Or else, I will put you

inside your cigarette factory

and burn you to ashes!

Hey, blacky!

Stop! Which caste do you belong to?

If you're a Gowda,

I am a Gowda too.

If you're a Kuruba

I'm a Kuruba too.

If you're a Brahmin,

I'm a Brahmin too.

If you're a Lingayat,

I'm a Lingayat too.

If you're a Muslim,

I am a Muslim too.

And if you're a Christian,

I am a Christian too!

Your caste has no law and justice.

My caste has both love and justice!

I will never make a mistake.

This is a warning to you.

You better stop playing your games.

Or else, your cigarette will burn

in front of your photo.

Dear father in law,

convey my regards to your daughter.

Get and die, you fool!

Let's give this

to the Chief Minister.

Congratulations, Raj.

- Thank you, sir.

Well done..

The work that you did

to ban smoking

is a very meaningful job.

You did a good job.

Everything is here. - Yes, sir.

- They have written all about you.

You got it banned, mister.

- What?

We are farmers.

We grow tobacco.

We prepare 'bidi'.

We lead our lives by working

in the cigarette factory.

If you do this,

what will become of us.

What will become

of our wives and kids?

Who are you?

I am the president of

the Tobacco Growers' Association.

Look,

since you and your people have been

doing this for generations,

you feel this is divine work.

That's not your mistake.

But sometimes

our work can harm others.

In the case of tobacco

our society is facing

such terrible problems.

If you grow crops

other than tobacco

the government will provide you

with a lot of facilities.

Our association is also ready

to support you.

If we do this

won't we develop

a healthy environment?

It will be wrong to oppose you

after listening to your words.

As you've assured your support,

we'll find another line of work.

What do you say?

- Sure.

We'll leave now. - Thank you.

- Thank you. - Let's go.

All the best. - Thank you

very much.. Good luck.

Daughter, what's wrong?

Dad,

I thought the guy you chose for me

was genuine, honest and wealthy.

But do you know the truth?

Hey, Kamraj..

Stop, ma'am..

- Do you know who I am?

He's asked me not

to allow anyone, ma'am. Please.

Mind your own business.

- Please. - I must go. - Stop..

Nitya. - What the hell!

God! No!

No! I've made a huge mistake,

Daughter.

Compared to the lustful Kamraj

my Raj is far better, Dad.

He'll provide me a secure life.

I need him, Dad.

Please, Dad. I want Raja.

I want him, Dad. Please.

Hi. - Why did you ask me

to come here immediately?

Well.. Happy Birthday to you.

Thank you so much.

I won't forget your birthday

even if you do.

It's okay..

Hey, you came to the temple

and performed prayers

but forgot to take the oblation.

- Sorry, sir.

Take it. Apply the vermillion.

It's auspicious.

Apply it.

First for you.

- Why did you put it on me?

Should only I be happy?

I want you to be happy.

Hello.

Where are you lost?

It's nothing. You look lovely.
