Sheetal nor Vijay has come.

l wonder iftheywill really

COMe.

What? He won't stay away.

He will surely come.

lt is one's imagination.

You might not believe me...

We believe. But the world...

Sir, a letter for Miss Sheetal.

- Letter for Sheetal?

Who sent it?

- l don't know, Sir.

Her watchman gave it to me.

- All right. Keep it carefully.

Now what?

- Now look...

She hasn't come yet, but her letters

have started coming to my house.

l am delighted

to see you happy, Mr Ravi.

But l feel like...

anay, forget it.

lt's better to keep my mouth

shut.

l don't understand.

What do you mean to say?

l just want to say that...

lt's better to remain quiet.

What are you doing tomorrow?

Can you drop in at my house?

Just for a while.

We'll talk about some work.

Which may be of importance for

you.

Mind you tongue, Mr Daaga!

How dare you accuse my friend?

Because this accusation is true.

Take a look.

You may not believe me...

But, you surely trust

your eyes, don't you?

l knew, that if l show you this,

you might be hurt.

But l couldn't bear it.

ARer all, l am your well wisher.

l couldn't bear to see you

cheated.

l was surprised to see that the

one whom you considered ...

...a best friend was cheating

you.

lt is disgusting, Mr Ravi.

An intelligent person like you...

...had patronised a foe

in the guise of a friend.

lf l can patronise a foe,

l can even destroy him.

l can even take his head.

This deceit will cost dear

to Vijay.

How do l explain it to you? You

don't understand my constraints.

How will l?

l don't understand a thing.

l couldn't believe my ears

when Ravi said it.

But l am helpless

against Ravi's belief.

Couldn't you have told him...

- No. l couldn't. No way!

You wouldn't understand. Because

you didn't see him express it.

His voice and utterance carried loads

of hope, expectation and optimism.

l'm his friend.

But at that moment...

...not even his enemy could've

had the heart to break his heart.

You can't break his heart,

but promises made to me, right?

You have the right to rebuke me.

But l can't build a castle of mirth

on the grave of Ravi's dreams.

l have decided to go away from here.

Time is the greatest healer.

You'll forget me in no time.

lt is possible that

you might leave me.

But l'll accept someone else...

Impossible!

Getting sentimental won't work.

You can solve this complication.

Go home and give it a thought

with a cool mind.

Go, Sheetal.

Driver...

Go home.

Was it Sheetal who went

from here now?-Yes, she came

What did she say?

She said, she hasn't given

a thought to her wedding......

But she said, she will think it

OVel.

Don't wory.

l think it will work out.

Why won't it work out

when l have a friend like you.

Anay, Vijay...

What did you say to her?

l told her that

you love her immensely.

And that she should mary you.

It is in the best of her interests.

Because she might not get a nice

and faithful person like you.

And l even told her...

lngrate swine! l never thought

you'd betray my trust in you.

What has happened to you, Ravi?

You are misunderstanding me.

l am your friend. - Don't you

utter the name of friendship!

A dog is more faithful than you.

l wish l had reared a dog...

...instead of befriending you.

Swine!

Had someone else said this,

l would've torn off his tongue.

Go away.

All right, Vijay, l am going.

You stabbed me behind my back.

But l challenge you in your face!

Swine! And remember this too...

...Our friendship is broken. We

are no more friends, but foes.

lfyou've decided to leave

this place, you won't go alone.

l'll go with you.

No., Sheetal. Don't let my

circumstances spoil your life.

What has happened has

happened?

Tomorrow you will find

a better life-partner than me.

When you find him... just think that

you were not destined for me.

l have told you earlier...

time is the greatest healer.

lf not today, tomorrow

you'll surely forget me.

''So easy for you to ask me

to forget you...''

''to forget you...''

''so difficult it is for me

to forget you''

''So easy for you to ask me

to forget you...''

''so difficult it is for me

to forget you''

lt is easy to tell me to

forget you.

But it is so difficult for me

to forget you.

''Without another thought...''

''man becomes to become

the pilot ofthe boat...''

''little do they realise...''

''there are storms to weather''

''So easy it is to take over

the mantle ofthe ship...''

''but it's difficult to row

the boat to the shores''

''lt was easy for you to ask me

to forget you...''

''but it's so difficult for me

to get over you''

''l admit, you are hurt...''

''by the ways ofthe world''

''But there were promises we made

to each other in love...''

''what shall become

ofthis vows?''

''lt's so easy to bre..ak

your promises...

''it's difficult to

honour your word''

''lt was easy for you to tell

me to forget you''

''lt's not easy for me

to forget you''

Please don't go away.

''So easy for you to ask me

to forget you...''

Your keys, Sir.

l found them on the table.

lt's no use to vent your anger

on lifeless beings, Mr Ravi.

You gain nothing ifyou succumb

to your own fire of hatred.

Those who've reduced

your desires to dust...

...are the ones who should burn

in this fire.

How is it possible?- Nothing is

impossible for a man.

The pinch is that, you have never

identified your friends and foes.

Give us the orders, and you'll see

we can destroy anyone for you!

No.

l don't want him to die. l want

to make life hell for him.

l'll help you.

And you help us.

The day we join hands, Vijay will

find no place in the world to run.

Do you agree with me, Mr Ravi?

lfyou want to settle a score

with him, then join hands with me.

All right, Mr Daaga.

l agree to your offer.

From today we are one.

And we have a common foe.

What's all this?

- Nothing.

l had a few guests yesterday night.

We had a brawl. Be seated.

Be serious. Tell me the truth.

Did they come again?

Yes. But there's nothing to wory.

Nothing has happened to me.

But, Vijay, how long

will this continue?

Vijay, l am Tony here.

l have an information for you.

Go ahead.-Their boat is arriving

on the 16th...

...at Ghodbunder

at l in the morning.

l am sory, but the way the police

have caught your consignments...

...lt is clear that one ofyour

men is an informer.

Hear that? Didn't l tell you?

You are right, Mr Ravi. l ty to

keep a watch on all my men.

But, l have around 450 men

working for me.

lt isn't impossible to find

the informer.

But it is rather difficult.

Perhaps the information ofthe

boat coming on the 16th...

...might have reached the police.

Never mind. So what

ifthe police is informed?

The boat will definitely come

to Ghodbunder on the 16th morning.

Bravo! Mr Ravi, you are amazing.

Tell me something. How did you

come upon this trick?

lt crossed my mind that if someone

among us is the informer...

...he must also get
