Whatever you say...

everything one does in life

is for a profit

This business is done

for a profit too

Without paying taxes

or keeping accounts

"Because this business is run on fear,

not paperwork"

Anyone wishing to enrol

can enlist

But he can't pull out

"And most importantly, anyone

breaking our rules..."

is broken down

"Friendship, respect, loyalty...

everything has but one goal"

Profits

And profits there will be

"This way, or that..."

any which way

"Namaskar, this is Sumit Awasthi.

Welcome to "Aajtak"

The headlines

Few people know that the hawk

is a very patient bird

"Once it sights its victim,

not an hour, not a day..."

the hawk flies in the skies

for a week and a month

Till it is the right time

And when the time arrives...

"even before you can blink,

the victim has been grabbed"

Even if it is in a crowded city

Malik used to run an import-export

business in those days

But that was only a front

He was actually a special member

of the Aslam Ali gang

His proximity with Ali caused heartburn

among the older members of the gang

They were close because Malik

had used his intelligence...

to spread the tentacles

of the gang

So much so that they were in

the need of many new members

It was during this that

Malik first met Chandu

Will you work for me?

- That's what I'm here for

How much do you want?

- You called me here. So you tell me

for your companions

We make that much anyway. So what's

the use of working for you?

Know what it means to join

Aslambhai's gang?

We're not into petty stuff

We're into big time

Anyone can be bumped off

at any time

Are you scared of death?

- I'm scared of nothing

All right. You get 20

and they get 10

That's it

Discuss the rest with panditji

May I go?

Useful guy

"Joseph, get the car out"

"Useful guy? He talked back

at you, Malikbhai"

He's terribly arrogant

He's arrogant because he knows

he's useful

What the?

"Chandubhai, I thought you had

gone off your rocker"

"The way you spoke to Malikbhai,

I thought we were all dead men"

I don't care for him

"Malik's an okay guy. But that guy

who fingered me, the bastard!"

"He's Yadav.

- Whoever he is, to hell with him"

I felt like stuffing a knife in

his ass and pulling out his guts

"Cool it, I say"

"We haven't even started working,

and he's already playing hero"

Want to see what a hero I am?

- Sit down. Sit

Listen to me carefully.

Days when we joked are past

"If you want to break into big time,

stop prancing like kids"

Or you'll be blown away

before your time

"Chandu, where's the need for us

to work under someone?"

"Look, nobody works under anybody"

They need us. And we need them

We want to do something big and

only they have big jobs in the city

The job is of course theirs.

But we name the price

Who is it that said we don't

need to think too much?

"So long as we are all together,

we'll take them all as they come"

"Pappu, why're you sitting

with your lips sealed?"

What will I say? I'll just do

as you say. What Warsi?

Yes... but I'm not sparing

that bloody midget

"There he goes again. Somebody

label him "Crackpot Dagdi Warsi"

What did you call me?

You call me a crackpot?

Out of my way!

"Sit down... you sit, too"

What is it? What're you watching?

Sit down. Sit!

It's very late. She must be

sitting with her claws out for me

Go home now. And go straight home.

- Sure

You take this for a hotel

you can come anytime to?

"Open the door, Ma.

- Where were you?"

I've returned before midnight.

So don't nag me now

Big favour he has done to me.

He will eat. At midnight

Who asked you for anything?

Just go to sleep

I'm not hungry.

- Don't talk rubbish

"Lunch at midnight, dinner at lunch...

- Must you pick on me always?"

You start nagging the moment I...

- Who else do I have but you?

Tell me.

- What're you doing? Are you mad?

Idiot! I've made some

curry and rice

Ma...

- Yes?

I've found a nice job.

- Where?

With someone called Alibhai.

- What work is it?

He runs a business.

- What business?

Many things

"When the game is big, you take

care of yourself first"

I know

"Yes, it stinks.

But it's business"

Our business isn't what

people make it out to be

There's this 40-storeyed tower

coming up Narayani Chowk

The buiIder came to us.

Hi Raju! How're you doing?

He asked us to help him

sell the buiIding

We spoke to a dozen buyers

and got him the right price

That's it. And people will

say anything

There's no trouble every day

at our place

What happens sometimes is that

people are dishonest in business

Or they work against principles.

One has to take care then

That happens once in 2 or 3 months.

Aslambhai has a great reputation

Nobody interferes

"Besides, Ma, no one can make it

to the top by the right way"

"Yes, it stinks.

But it's business"

What say Aslam?

All gleaming?

This is my babe.

It's gotta look gorgeous

She looks like a heroine's cheeks

You've been avoiding me

Will I call you all my life

forjust ten million?

Where's Malikbhai?

Where's Malikbhai?

Laugh

"What's with danger, Ma? Man can die

even while crossing a street"

He's double of what I hoped.

- Who?

Chandu. Know what he did?

"Malikbhai, do you know

what Chandu did to Chopra?"

I said what will you discuss with

Malikbhai. Just give us the money

He started irritating me.

And I had to give him the treatment

But the money will arrive on time.

- All right

I'll have to sit him

over a couple of drinks

I'll have to talk to him lovingly

to bring him back to his senses

Why?

"With special men, we must always

maintain a relationship"

"When you know he's special,

why must things reach this state?"

Because even special men

need to be reminded...

that they can be dispensable

You keep pampering just

about anyone

You're talking about Chandu?

- No... just about anybody

Is Chandu of any use?

He's like the AK47

Who goes to theatres anyway?

They watch the movies at home

on VCDs

Why won't they if they

make nice movies?

"Stuff the movie with fights,

dance and the works"

Get him to make a movie now.

- Shut your trap

Greetings

You... are Chandu?

"Mubarakbhai, your stuff is ready"

But it's only four crates

I asked for 6.

- Malikbhai told us to give only 4

Malik... give me two more crates.

I'll have a word with Malik

First talk to Malik.

- I told you

Your telling won't help here

"That which Malikbhai says,

happens"

Hey! What's up?

"He's asking you, isn't he?

So deliver"

What's happening here?

"Nothing, Mubarakbhai. Two boxes

got misplaced while counting"

"Take four crates away now.

You have my word..."

two more will be delivered

by afternoon tomorrow. Okay?

Bhai! Come on!

Remain hidden... I'll handle it

Come here

What's been going on there?

Where?

Who were they?

How would I know?.

- Spit that beedi out!

Spit it out and talk to me

So why were you talking to them?

Who was talking?

I was only asking for a match

A match eh?

Where did they go away
