Keep it quickly.

Exporting this sandalwood

and crocodile skin

is called smuggling,

crime and a sin.

What crime, what sin! These

things are lifeless.

Now look, at this animal. It's

an animal. It has

Iife.

If we export this animal

that would be called

smuggling, a sin.

But what do I do? I'm helpless.

My business is smuggling.

Hey Villu! Yes, sir.

Put these animals inside.

Okay, sir.

So, Lalvani sir, did

you bring my money?

Yes, I've got it. Count

it if you want.

There is no need to count,

Lalvani sir.

In our business, we betray law,

but never each other.

This is the first rule of

the illegal business.

Mr. Sher Singh.

Yes.

While coming here I'd heard

that the security

in this jungle's check

post is very tight.

Look, in our country, tight

security exists everywhere.

But bribery is a very

powerful thing.

The heat of bribery melts the

strict laws like butter.

You don't worry.

My son Nagender has made

a very good arrangement.

You'll pass the check post like

how a hot knife

passes an ice wall.

What is in this truck?

I'd told Sher Singh to

give you some money.

Here it is? This is nothing.

Even if he had filled

a truck with money

still this Anthony would

not have accepted it.

I'd played a ruse, to

catch you red handed.

No, no, sir. How much money

you want, you'll get.

But leave us.

Shut up!

I arrest you with the

smuggling goods.

My dear, Anthony.

We got suspicious when you accepted

the bribe so easily.

Because we knew that you're

an honest officer.

So I was keeping a watch on you.

And I on you.

Since a long time I'd

been keeping a tab

on your smuggling activities,

Mr. Nagender.

I'll drag you in the court, see

to it that you're punished

and thus put an end on the

illegal activities in this region.

Law, justice, court and honesty

these words apply only in cities.

Not in jungles, officer.

Here the law of animals

is applicable.

If one animal has to survive

it is necessary to

kill another animal.

It's essential to drink another's

blood to quench one's thirst.

So, I'll have to become a lion

and kill you as my hunt.

Good morning, good morning,

Bansi. Give it to me.

Thank you. Forest officer

Raja. What! Anthony!

Raja, are you scared

to do this job

after the death of Anthony?

Not at all, sir.

In fact I've started appreciating

my duty and my position

more than before.

If I don't arrest and

punish the criminals

who murdered Anthony

then people will stop

trusting the police

force and justice, sir.

That's correct, Raja.

That's why the department

has decided

to transfer you

to Anthony's place.

Any objection?

No, sir.

This country gave a scholarship

to an orphan like me and

made me such a big officer.

I have many debts to pay for the

favours of this motherland.

And it's my duty to arrest

people who rob her, sir.

Very good, Raja. I want you to

join your duty from tomorrow.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you, Bansi. Thank

you very much.

I've applied herbs on your

wound. You'll be fine.

I'm your friend, Raja.

Thank you.

Good morning, sir.

Good morning.

Sir, I think you're the new

officer Raja sir. Am I right?

Yes, but who are you?

I'm your chef, servant,

driver, cleaner

dry cleaner everything

mashed into one.

My name is Sukha.

Sukha? What a name!

You see sir, when

I was in the city

my name used to be Sukhiya.

But I became Sukha from

Sukhiya from the time

I resumed my duty in the jungle.

Even dangerous animals

don't eat me

when they pass my way.

My life is all dry. No problem.

I'll make your life lively.

Till that time you get my

luggage from the Jeep.

And carry Bansi and Mithu carefully.

If you talk rubbish, then both

of them will rip you apart. Go.

Bansi and Mithu? Who are these?

Friends, check post and thorny

trees are not sufficient

to end the smuggling

in this jungle.

We desperately need the weapons

of honesty, duty and courage.

To nab our enemies, we'll

have to work 24 hours

and not just our usual duty hours.

And we'll do this work not

only for our salary

but also for the honour

of our position.

Understand?

Yes, sir.

Sir, I was having my meals

to fill my stomach.

I got the information

that you've called me.

So I left my plate, and

here I'm present

in front of you with

my half stomach.

So tell me what's the matter,

stomach? I mean, sir?

Can you help me?

Sir, I tell you from

my stomach's heart

that I can give you what you want.

Can you give me a loan

of 1 0,000 rupees?

Sir, don't say this again.

Otherwise my stomach will burst.

Sir, to tell you the truth,

I don't even know

how many zeros are

there in 1 0,000.

I don't know.

Okay, tell me, in this department

who is the person who

can give me a loan.

In our department? There

is one person. Who?

Sukhiram.

Will he have so much cash?

Sir, there's not a thing

that he doesn't have.

Sir, now you'll ask me

how he got all this.

I'll give you the same old answer.

With the grace of stomach.

Sir, sometimes this stomach

makes a person a devil.

Sir, but don't tell

this to Sukhiram.

He'll kick me in my stomach.

Can I go now, sir? Okay.

Sir, sir, you?

Can I come inside?

Welcome, sir. Welcome.

Wow! What a nice house!

Sir, its government quarters.

This imported liquor, this fridge

T.V, V.C.R. and this red carpet.

Even this is given by the

government. Am I right?

Sir, actually

Yes, I know.

Now you'll try to say that all

this is family heritage.

But I know very well, Sukhiram

that your father was a watchman

and your mother

had to clean other's dishes

to make you an officer.

Now don't try to lie.

And tell me truthfully,

what is your salary?

Sir, 1200 rupees.

A person who earns 1200

rupees as salary

can't drink scotch.

A person who earns 1200

rupees as salary

can't have a colour T.V.

No, sir, what are you doing?

Bastard, being a policeman

you cheat law.

Before becoming a policeman

we have to take an oath.

Did you forget that

oath too? Get up.

Anthony lost his life because

of people like you.

Sir, please forgive me. Look, look,

this blood. Let it flow.

Let the impure blood of bribery

come out of your body.

Now give me the names of

those who bribed you.

What's the address of the

people who killed Anthony?

Sir, God promise, I don't know

their name and address.

Those people just throw money

while passing through

the check post.

And I get busy collecting

that money.

I never tried to Iook at their face.

Because I believe that the

less I know about them

the more will I live.

Gangu.

Yes, sir. Keep my car ready.

I have to go in the jungle.

What! Again jungle!

Let my fate burn!

Sita, marrying Ram, had to live

in the jungles only for 14 years.

And look at me.

I'm living in this jungle for

You care neither for me

nor for this house.

The whole day, you're either

in that timber shop

or roaming in the jungle.

Along with you, you've even made

my son Nagender an animal.

I wish my nephew, Budhi was here.

I could have at least poured
