Lord Shankar Pashupatinath!

You and I have the same problem.

We are both very innocent. So you

are named Bholenath and I'm Bablu.

What can I hide rom you.

I've come to you for selfish reasons.

In any case' all who come here'

come for their selfish reasons.

But you know that.

You are the Almighty.

The last time I offered you a

coconut' I got an interview letter.

I've got it here. But this time'

in order to get the job....

I've made offerings for you

using clarified-butter.

Taste it' and then decide

whether a cook like me...

... should bag the chefs job

in a five star hotel or not.

I've even brought a coconut.

Why isn't this coconut breaking?

This never happened before.

I hope nothing untoward

is going to happen today.

Run him down!

Stop!

The bastard is dead!

Call the ambulance.

Are you thinking of

what I'm thinking?

Whether I've fired 6 shots or 5.

Honestly even I don't know.

Because if I've fired 6 bullets'

it's your good fortune.

But if I've fired 5 shots...

It's my fortune.

There's no telling what can

happen when in this city.

So take your trousers and run home.

I'll pay you next time.

It's good that I lock the door.

Nobody here.

But I had switched off the lamp.

Anybody there?

Don't come out! I have...

what's this thing in my hand...!

Something resembling a knife!

When did you come?

How and from where did you come?

I came now.

In a train from Jalandar!

- Good you came.

- Live long son.

I knew you were to come.

My right eye has been

twitching since 3 days.

Want a slap? When a man's right eye

twitches a problem is coming his way!

- You called me a problem!

- I don't mean that...

Give this to me.

It's very heavy.

Hug me!

- Please!

- Son!

Gently.

- This club that you're carrying..

- First eat this!

I hope you're not going to

start Dad's arena once again.

I wish I could. Everything in

this country is very good son.

But for one thing. Women can't

become wrestlers here. It's for you.

- What's wrong?

- Nothing' I'm doing pushups.

That's good.

Listen to this. Your Dad

paid me a visit in a dream.

- Again!

- As well as your grandpa.

- And his brother too!

- And his brother too!

- They always come!

- What moustaches!

Stiff turban and red piped outfit!

- I'd die for it!

- I'd die for it!

- It was an army of wrestlers.

- Army of wrestlers!

- Know what he said? - No.

- Said to me' woman...

Have some shame! Go and

drown in a pool ofbuffaloes!

You are the wife of

such a great wrestler!

- And an even greater wrestler's

daughter-in-law! - Daughter-in-law!

Can't you make your son do 4 push ups?

He asked me to give this club to you.

- Ifhe doesn't bring pride to the

name of my arena... - To my arena.

- I'll never forgive him!

- I'll never forgive him!

This is just what he said!

You dreamt about this 650000 times!

And you've told me about it

approximately 3 50000 times!

The next time Dad appears in

your dream' frankly tell him..

I don't want to become a wrestler.

I'll be the topmost chef in India!

Eat yourself and build

a body. Like your Dad had!

- What a diet he had!

- I know. One seer of almonds.

A bucket of milk' 5 seers

chick peas' 200 loaves of corn flour.

And one jug ofbutter.

Didn't even know how to eat!

You've told me so many times

that I can repeat it blindly!

I won't become a wrestler!

I just won't!

Just think son' someday if you're in

trouble how will you defend yourself?

For that one needs 8 grams of

brain not a seer of almonds!

Now rub this soap on my back

and let me bathe in peace.

Still a baby! I won't rub it!

I have an interview in the morning

so fix the alarm for 6 o'clock.

I don't need any alarm!

I get up by the crowing of the cock!

Come on!

Aren't you ashamed to

break into my house?

We are looking for a prisoner

who has escaped from jail.

My body drags you here.

You haven't changed one bit!

You forget that this body

also houses a heart.

You've started talking a lot.

I'm not the same person who will

put up with all your atrocities!

What else can you do but tolerate?

Tell me what I can do.

Shall I tell you?

The man who were looking for...

What about him madam?

Did you find him?

Not yet but we'll find him soon.

Keep your doors and windows shut.

You can never deceive me.

Because you love me too much!

Isn't it? Tell me.

Say that you love me very much.

Why are you silent? Say it.

Who is this Manu?

It's vital for us to find out.

He's the man who was

sentenced for 100 years.

For hold-ups and robberies.

A first class scoundrel who changes

disguises at the drop of a hat!

I want you to recognise him well.

These are a few ofhis disguises.

Sometimes he becomes Father D'costa.

Sometimes he's hotel

manager Sharad Mehta.

And sometimes businessman Raman.

These were some ofhis disguises

that are in police records.

You will have to be very alert.

Because only Manu knows what

his next disguise will be!

Who is it?

You've ruined me! I had to

reach at 8 for the interview!

It's already 7 o'clock.

What will I do?

Mother ruined me soon as she came!

Thank God at least got a cab!

I'll reach the interview in time!

- This is my cab!

- This is my cab!

I sat in this cab first.

So it is my taxi.

I hailed it first so it is mine!

- This cab is mine.

- Mine!

- Mine!

- Mine!

Quiet! This cab is neither yours

not hers. It belongs to me! Get off!.

- It's vital I reach for an

interview.- Listen driver...

Quiet! Where do you have to go?

Both have to go to the same place.

So what's the problem?

Let's go together.

My name is Bablu Chowdhary.

- Who asked you?

- I didn't tell you.

I'm preparing for my interview.

- By the way I'm Harpal Singh.

- Who asked you?

Look in front and drive.

Don't turn behind.

If you must fight' go outside the cab.

It's very important for me

to do a rehearsal. Please.

I'm from Punjab and I've

completed my graduation.

And I'm 25 years old.

Okay' 26 years.

And I have a diploma from

Sarla Cooking Classes.

I can cook any kind of meals

and I cook very well.

And grilled' mashed

aubergines are my speciality!

If I get this job' I'll work

really hard' put my heart in it.

I won't take any leave' not even on

Sundays! Please give me the job!

You don't look like a chef.

Even Bebe says that.

According to her' I should

have been a hero or a model.

That's not what I meant.

I understood what you meant.

Actually you want to make friends.

But doesn't matter. Since we

are discussing it' I'll tell you...

I have two dreams.

No make that three.

My first dream is...

chef in the world!
