They think I'm somebody else not Bablu

He is Bablu! I swear by God!

Look at his childhood photographs.

When we had gone to the fair.

This is last years picture when

we went to Vaishnodevi's temple.

You looked beautiful then.

Come to fix the set.

There's nobody in my life but you.

But you've become very smart.

Don't waste time talking.

Come soon my darling.

I'm dying to see you.

Are you paid for nothing?

Does your father lose something

if you fix these things earlier?

You depraved people

have only one problem!

Rascals are accustomed to

eating for nothing!

Everybody does that sir.

You argue with me!

Do your job and get lost!

Is some broad coming?

Asking me? How dare you ask me!

Rascal! You scum!

Recognised me? Your old partner.

Now tell me who eats

off others' living?

You or me?

So you sent me to prison and...

You're watching television

in comfort at my expense!

You love to watch television.

- No!

- Yes you love it.

I'll show you some television.

But you can't see it from far.

Your eye sight is weak.

You don't have glasses. Come.

- Come on.

- No.

Ingratiate!

Eats chicken with my money!

- Now can you see?

- No.

Go close and see.

Forgive me.

Our friend and partner

got killed because...

Your police department

let loose a nabbed criminal!

Why? Was he related to you?

We set him free after inquiries.

On seeing his pictures with his mom

we realised he was Bablu not Manu!

He was Manu!

Disguised as Bablu'

he fooled this chap!

He doesn't know that

Manu is a man of many faces!

He can dress up like anybody.

What about the photographs?

You get mothers on hire for

10000 chips! Pictures for 500!

Then whether you call him Manu

or Bablu' it's the same man!

How much did Manu pay you?

That's an allegation!

I'm an honest police officer!

And the commissioner's brother-in-law!

Why don't you say something?

This is my office.

He was your old partner.

Please take a seat.

Please check your record.

We got him imprisoned.

Is that why he is after you?

We must apprehend him before

he attacks either of them.

Go if you want to.

But you will see I won't eat.
