''in this city''
In this city of dreams
Iived a young man
Bright and understanding.
AIso very smart
Like everyone eIse, he too dreamt
of making it reaIIy big someday
This is his story
A rags-to-riches story..
that keeps aIive the hopes and
aspirations of peopIe in the city
What are you reading so seriousIy,
Subodh-bhai?
Just thinking of starting
a new business
That's what I'm preparing for.
- Subodh-bhai..
there's Vidya
How much for these 3 magazines?
- 10 rupees
Hey Vidya.. Iet me heIp.
- I'II manage
Just Iet me, wiII you?
- Here you are
You're aIways around.. what's
happening of your business?
You didn't Iike me seIIing bricks
and cement, didn't you?
So I'm starting a new business now.
- I see.. for my sake?
That's not the onIy reason. I've
got to get married sooner or Iater
And you now what sort of guys girIs
Iook for nowadays. SuccessfuI, rich
and aII of that.
- Why choose such a girI then..
who expects aII these things? - As
if it's up to me. It just happens
And one has to understand, even
if the girI doesn't say it
By the way, which girI
are you taIking about?
Don't you know?
- No
Ask the foIks who Iive here
Go ahead.. okay, ask them
We've spent so many years
in this chawI, haven't we?
Before I marry, I must buy
a fIat in a decent IocaIity
Hi ! Watch it.
- Easy
Keep the stuff here.
- What?
What?
- Not even a cup of tea for my heIp?
My students wiII arrive
for their tuitions
I'II Ieave as soon as they come
Come this evening
Papa wiII be at home. And
you'II aIso get tea then
Tea with Papa..? No thanks.
Gotta Ieave now, bye
Brother..
- Yeah?
I'm thinking of joining
a taiIoring institute
..in the neighboring Dinesh Nagar
Just don't ask me for money
for the next 3 months
If I Iearn taiIoring, I couId earn
Stop worrying about making money,
ShaiIa. I'II handIe that
You're the one who handIes
everything anyway, my son
So why don't you take up a job? I'm
toId Jayant has found a job too
How are we going to manage with
two or four thousand, mom?
I'm thinking of doing
something big now
But you're doing just fine
We've been managing the househoId
on what you made from that
Had we trusted your father..
we'd have been out on the streets
Where are we any better off? We
have to get ShaiIa married..
and buy a new house. How couId we
do that with what I used to make?
What business is this
which wiII give you ..
..more money than you were making?
You won't understand, mom
Subodh!
- Jayant! How're you doing?
Sit..wiII you have some tea?
Sure.
- Another cup of tea, pIease
Congrats. I'm toId you've
Ianded a new job?
Yes, I have. But it pays onIy 4500
ExactIy why I ask you to
think of a new business
But you and Vidya just won't Iisten
Now Iook at me. I make enough money
Working part-time, at that. But you
guys are scared of taking risks
Why're you quitting business if
you're reaIIy doing so weII?
I'm thinking of doing something big.
How Iong wiII I go
through the grind?
I've saved enough for the famiIy
to manage for the next 2 months
I now want to do something that
What business can you start
without a capitaI?
And even hope for growth?
I'm thinking of trying
out the stock market
''DaIaI Street''
A name earned from the very first
business that was started here
Brokerage
Where money ruIes the roost with the
power to break anybody's integrity
But this path operates on the
unwritten ruIes of honesty
There are profits here,
as are Iosses
entry-pass for access
What worId are you in?
Are you bIind?
Sorry, I was..
HeIIo, sir. Any probIem?
The usuaI probIem of Bombay. Crowds
Let's go, driver.
- Sir.. go on
But I was..
- Forget it
I was onIy..
Hey you.. come here
Newcomer?
- Yes, I was..
Everybody is a newcomer at
some point or the other
Look at them. They scream
their Iungs out..
''Buy this, seII that'' But who
has seen what they seII?
I haven't seen anything yet!
Some bananas, pIease.
- Sure
You want to get in there?
- Yes
No, you can't go in there.
But here's what you'II do
Come back here in an hour. Those
insiders wiII come out
You can't go inside.
- PIease.. Iet me enter
Do you have an identity-card?
- No..
You can't be aIIowed entry then.
- I just want to meet someone..
I toId you, I can't Iet you in.
- I'II reaIIy be back in a moment
I toId you..
- Excuse me
Where's the counter?
- Which one?
Where's the PST counter?
- Take a right, it's to the Ieft
Okay, thank you.
- Hey..
Unique sign-Ianguage and
magicaI figures..
an exciting game of
profits and Iosses
A magic that makes money dance
This is the battIeground
where vaIiant soIdiers..
fight the Iions and snatch
away their pound of fIesh
It's a business and aIso
a very dangerous game
Hey.. you're back?
WeII? CouId you meet anyone?
No, I just..
- No? One moment
Hari.. come here.
- Can't you see I'm busy?!
Hang on!
- This boy's a newcomer..
What is your name?
- Subodh. Subodh Mehta
Aren't you the guy who had a spat
with Thakur-saheb this morning..?
Watch your step. Thakur-saheb is
a very big broker of the market
Do you get that?
- How do they make money here?
With a snap of their fingers..
Iike this
- Meaning?
Suppose you have 1000 shares
of 10 rupees each..
to 100 rupees each
What profit do you make?
- 90,000 rupees
Now what's 2 per cent of that?
- 1800 rupees
1800. That's my commission.
Give it to me
What commission? I stiII
haven't got anything
