Yes.
Look at you now. You look so good.
When do we hear something new?
Tonight?
In the night?
Do you also write at night?
Sometimes.
Beware of the night...
You see...
The day destroys the night,
Night divides the day.
Try to run,
Try to hide...
Break on through to the other side.
This is the true
story of three friends...
Muninder, Benoy and Rohit.
The kingdom where
they lived would select
the smartest boys for training.
Years later, they would join
the King's prestigious army.
But nobody really knew what
went on inside the castle.
Their parents didn't know
that the King's evil minister,
Was brain-washing the kids
and turning them into robots.
Is it a true story?
Yes.
The wicked man's name was Rathod.
Rathod!
Yes, Rathod.
Vikreet and Benoy were
with the full Robot Army...
Muninder and the kids
were due any minute now...
Rohit was worried.
They hadn't come yet.
He turned around. And froze.
A terrified look came into his eyes.
He saw someone
coming through the tunnel.
Someone was coming from the tunnel...
Who was coming?
Who was it?
We'll finish tomorrow...
- Now!
You told me you passed.
Is this a joke to you?
I thought you'd finally
become serious about your studies.
You're narrating
stories to half-dead people.
Just to hear them tell you
what a good writer you are.
What are you staring at?
Lower your eyes.
If this wasn't a hospital,
I would skin you right now.
I'm not going to
forget this in a hurry.
Come home. I'll make
sure I get an answer.
What did Sir say?
Sir said that he will send
me to the hospital as well.
Why?
Because I failed my exams.
So you'll go back to
boarding school?
No. Why?
Sir said if I don't pass,
he'll send me to a boarding school.
What happened that day?
Sir hit me.
Why?
Two boys were teasing me at school.
I broke one's teeth.
Did he beat you a lot?
He beat me with a belt.
Shall we go?
How old are you?
I'm asking you something.
How old are you?
Seventeen.
Seventeen...
And you still don't use your brain.
When will you start?
After you turn forty?
Why did you fail?
I didn't study.
Why not?
I don't understand engineering.
You didn't try hard enough.
I did.
- Shut up!
Bloody failure.
If you weren't studying,
what were you doing?
I'd sit by the river.
What did you do there?
What did you do there?
Smoke cigarettes?
Yes
When did you start smoking?
In school.
So why did you lie earlier?
Light it.
I'm not joking. Light it.
Smoke it...
What other lies have you told me?
Lying is a weakness. It's cowardice.
A liar is a spineless person.
Who doesn't have the balls to
say what he really believes.
You're a coward.
Do you have the
balls to hear the truth?
I ask the questions here.
I said I want to be a writer.
Did you listen?
You know that I'm a good writer.
Everyone likes my writing...
I don't. And I will
not discuss it anymore.
How often have you lied to me?
Every time you
couldn't digest the truth
And where is your spine?
You lied as well. You said
that Arjun fell down the stairs.
He didn't fall down the stairs.
I know that you beat
him with your belt.
I lost a contract
worth a lot because of him.
He should understand
the consequences.
By hitting him?
- It was a mistake.
By sending him to hospital?
I didn't want to send him to the
hospital. I said it was a mistake.
I didn't want to hit him.
I apologized to him.
Well done Sir. Scar the child
for life, scare him to death...
and then apologise. Your
father would have been proud.
I said it happened by mistake,
I didn't want to hit him...
Did I tell you?
Sir?
What?
Won't you apologise to me now?
You!
Good morning.
Good morning, Sir.
Arjun get up.
I know you're awake.
Get up.
I'm here to apologize...
Forgive me.
There's too much work and
then there's the two of you.
I get frustrated.
I get angry, and then...
I thought a lot last night.
I have done a lot for both of you.
But it was never enough.
And it never will be.
Rohan, you don't want to study
So there's no need to
study any more.
You start work full
time at the factory today.
You will reach one hour
earlier than the others...
And you leave two hours
after they leave. Okay?
Arjun
I have spoken to the principal.
A new semester starts in two weeks.
You're going to boarding school.
To study and live there.
Okay?
For myself.
I get very lonely.
And now that both of you won't
be here, it will get worse...
Okay?
Okay.
You're getting married?
Yes.
To whom?
Somebody.
And Rohan? Arjun?
They're insolent.
I will always be their enemy.
But they're your children.
You're sending Arjun
to boarding school?
He's six years old...
I was six when dad sent me...
But Arjun isn't like you.
Then he'll become like me.
Forget all this...
You want a drink?
No.
Please think
about what you're doing.
I have thought about it...
I took this decision after thinking.
If it's too much for you
we can take care of Arjun.
What did you say?
What do you mean 'too much'?
I mean...
What do you mean by 'too much'?
We can bring him up.
Take care of him. Send him to school.
We have no children...
- Arjun is my son.
And I'm not in the
business of selling children.
Why take this the wrong way?
All I'm saying if it's too hard...
- What are you saying?
It isn't my fault that
you didn't have children.
Adopting Arjun won't cure
your infertility will it?
That's not fair
Not fair?
You want to tell me what's fair?
Get lost...
What is your problem?
Why can't you ever see anyone happy?
I'm tired.
I'm tired of making everyone happy.
First Father, then you.
Now these two. I can't take it.
Have you ever given him one chance?
- One chance?
I put everything into his education.
He got kicked out.
I begged for his admission
into College. He failed.
What else has he ever done?
He's written a novel.
- He's written sh*t!
Stop encouraging him.
Stop living your
unfulfilled dreams through my son.
I don't want him to become like you.
Like me?
Look at yourself...
Big Fat Bloody Loser.
What are you looking at? Get out!
Uncle
Where are you going?
- I'm going home.
Take me with you.
- No...
Please uncle
- You have to stay here.
Arjun needs you.
He's going to boarding school.
He'll need you when he gets back.
You're his only friend.
Please uncle.
- Come on Rohan.
Don't do this to me right now.
Please uncle. - Don't do this
to me right now. - Please uncle
Uncle!
No Papa... No Papa...
Papa not that. Please...
Papa not that. Please...
Sir please not that...
Against the rising waves Your
boat is helpless and tired.
Living one gasp at a time...
Your boat is helpless and tired.
Though the currents
are against you...
It's time to make a difference.
Hoist the sail with courage...
This is all about your pride.
Shout ahoy and push ahead.
This is all about your pride.
Conquer. Raise the victory flag,
It's time to do or die.
