De Dana Dan Page #13

Synopsis: Singapore-based Nitin Bankar's education was paid for by his employer, Kuljeet Kaur, and he, after the passing of his father, works as an unpaid maid-chauffeur for her until such time he pays off whatever she had spent. He is in love with gorgeous Anjali Kakkad but her father refuses to give his consent for this alliance. Desperate to get out of this situation, Nitin attempts suicide, albeit in vain, and then cooks up a scheme to abduct Kuljeet's pet, Mulchand, demand a hefty ransom, and then marry Anjali. He seeks assistance from his equally deadbeat-courier deliveryman, Ram Mishra, who wants to wed tall and pretty Manpreet Oberoi, and both book a room in Pan Pacific Hotel. However, Murphy's Law and a host of assorted characters get involved - resulting in hilarious and uncontrollable chaos.

Now, even God cannot convince me

Go, go, go.

All the best.

Give me the money.

Aren't you ashamed of

doing these things?

Does your mother know you're

doing these things?

My mother is no more,

give me the money.

Where is my servant?

If you give me the money...

...I'll handover your servant to you.

You'll never prosper with this money,

mark my words.

Be quiet, and give me the money.

Or else, I'll give you his dead body.

Give it quickly.

Take it, take it.

Put it down.

Turn around.

Police, run.

Police.

Catch him.

Ram. Ram, stop the truck Ram.

Drive slowly...

I am here?

Stop the truck.

I will die, have you gone mad?

Get in.

Where are you taking it?

Ram. Ram. Ram.

He's not the kidnapper.

He's the one who was kidnapped.

He's Nitin Bankar.

Is he dead?

- Madam, don't touch him.

We're taking him to the hospital.

Taking him to the hospital...

Why take him to the hospital?

Catch the kidnapers.

Hey officer, catch the kidnapers.

He ran away with my money.

The gun...

...and get me back my money.

He needs rest now.

- Okay

Nitin, what's wrong with you?

Have you come here to see

whether I'm dead or alive?

So, that you can run away

with all the money.

That's why you fled leaving me there.

What else could I've done?

The police would've arrested me

for kidnapping you.

Where is the money?

We've to get out of here any how.

They're waiting outside for me

to be conscious again...

...and, ask me about the kidnapper.

How many wives and children he has?

What will I tell them?

Where is my shoe?

What shall we do now?

Call up Mamu, and ask him

to get hold of anyone...

...thrash him, kill him and give

us the dead body. That's all.

What will we do with the dead body?

We're cannibals,

We'll throw it in a lake or pond...

and, tell the police his description.

Come on, now.

Call Mami... I mean, Mamu.

of the kidnapper.

from this number.

Then, find out who he is?

Oh! Okay.

He has regained consciousness.

Can you describe the kidnapper?

What's wrong?

Have you gone deaf?

They are asking for the description

of the kidnapper. Tell them,

Who am I?

What am I doing here?

If I slap him once,

he'll remember everything.

Shall I remind you who you are?

I'm your maid, now do you remember?

Do you remember?

Please don't disturb him,

he has lost his memory.

Memory.

- Not on the ground, on the bed.

Sir, we have a sketch of the kidnapper...

as per the eye-witness.

The kidnapper was driving the van.

And, he fled after the van met

with an accident.

God, look at his face.

He looks like a ferocious criminal.

You have his name,

number and photo.

What else are you waiting for,

his horoscope? Look for him,

We've traced the call.

It was made from pacific hotel.

He must be hiding in some

corner of that hotel. Go.

Come with me.

- I'll come too.

And, when I lay my hands on him,

I'll teach him a good lesson...

And then, I'll give you

a sound beating.

I'm in a fix.

They have my sketch.

If they catch me, I'm...

How did they know we were

in the same hotel?

Who did I kidnap?

It's Mamu's call. I'll tell him we

don't need the corpse.

Because the police think

you are the kidnapper.

Okay. Go ahead. Tell him, tell him.

Handle everything.

Hello.

I'm waiting outside the hotel

with the dead body.

What should I do with it?

- We don't need the dead body now.

Why don't you want it?

With great difficulty,

I stole it from the morgue.

You will have to buy it.

I don't want it.

You can sell it to someone else.

This is not some vegetable

that people buy over the counter.

You don't know who I am.

The whole of Singapore

is scared of me.

Why are you talking so loudly?

Someone else ishaving a

conversation too. Speak softly.

Yes. - What can I say?

Iknow you're in this hotel.

I will find you, no matter what?

Come on.

I said I don't want it.

You can do whatever you want.

What will I do with the dead body?

And, you can die along with him.

But spare me. - Spare me, spare me.

- Hey, why are you screaming now?

Hello, where are you? - When you

scream, I can't hear anything.

Nitin, let's go.

dead body without the advance.

And, now you say you don't

want the dead body.

You're the rascal. I gave

Who did you give it to?

to collect the advance.

But he said there wasn't

anyone there.
