how can you expect anything from it?

Subodh, Hari wiII not be

working for us from today

But what's up?

I mean, he hasn't said anything..

- Forget aII that..

and just get on with your work

Hey Subodh! How are you doing?

Where the heII have

you been? That Sh..

I've become a broker.

- What?

Why don't you work with me?

Forget about C.N. Shah.

- You said one needs money..

and contacts to become a broker.

So what's aII this about?

WeII, actuaIIy..

the big guns at the stock market

have begun to see my abiIities

So Thakur-saheb managed a Iicense

for me at Jugad Singh's request

There's going to be a huge

operation. They need me for that

The mother of aII battIes.

The cIash of the titans

When that happens, we get

to become independent.

Take it from me, I swear

Are they waging a battIe

against Bhejani?

Why do you bother about names?

Look, we'II make a great team.

So Iet's get together

I can't stand by you, Hari. Because

you're working for peopIe..

who're stuffing their own pockets

and ruining the market

And that's something you know too

I toId you this because

you're a friend

It's your caII

SpecuIators put their

money in scrips ..

..from which they

expect huge profits

The bigger the profits,

the bigger the risks

On that day, an unseen gesture

sparked off hectic seIIing..

and the market crashed

in just 15 minutes

And so did the hopes

of the investors

It's often said that the share

market is Iike a jungIe..

where nobody cares for

the smaII investor

OnIy those who have the power

are the ones that wiII Iast

Nothing personaI about it.

PeopIe thought the buying trends

were rather too Iong this time

That's it. The trend changed

But who're they to decide that?

- They're peopIe in high pIaces

They don't find it necessary to

answer smaII fries Iike you

Why ask me, I say? Ask God.. He's

the one who created the worId

A farce is being enacted anyway.

So watch the fun!

Wait and watch. - Hari.

Go on, I'II join you Iater

- ok

Look, Subodh.. didn't I teII you

there was a battIe in the offing?

The mother of aII wars! Thakur's

men are seIIing away their hoIdings

But what for?

Bhejani's coming out

with a bond-issue

And who'II buy the bond when

there's a sIump in the market?

It'II fizzIe out, won't it?

But everybody stands to Iose

with such cut-throat tactics

I've Iost a miIIion rupees, Hari

Didn't I warn you that it

was a fight between giants?

Not to interfere in it?

But don't be disheartened

When others are fighting,

we neither win nor Iose

But the Iosses are ours,

aren't they?

Have some tea

Sir, I've brought the titIe deed

of our house and some jeweIIery

This is aII we have, sir

Keep this, he'II pay the

rest of the money Iater

Don't give me aII that,

I dare not touch it

You can repay me sIowIy..

with interest

But you shouId know.. he's

aIways in such a hurry

He never thinks

I admit, he's young

and fuII of beans

But after what has happened,

I won't send him to the

market to represent me

You, Subodh..? What's wrong?

Can you Iend me some money?

- Sure..

but what's wrong? teII me?

Father's no more

Last night, he had a heart-attack..

and before we couId take him

to the hospitaI, he..

Even if I had taken him to the

hospitaI, I'd have had no money

Don't say such things

I'II go and get some tea

Everything wiII be aII right.

Look at your state

I'm okay

I have so many arrangements to make,

I don't even have the time to cry

Can you Iend me 15,000 ?

Papa, pIease! Stop making excuses!

I'm managing, isn't it? So what's

the hurry to get me married?

Your drinking won't get me married!

And what has the doctor toId you?

Stop it now, wiII you?

''The Prime Minister stated today

that it's necessary for a change..

''in the country's economic

condition. It'II Iend an impetus..''

''to the countrymen's confidence and

quicken the growth of the country''

Keep my sister's jeweIIery safeIy.

I'II pay and take them back

I wish to seII the rest of the

jeweIIery and these two radios

Dear investor, My name

is Subodh Mehta

I'm a trader in the stock-market.

My new company, 'Grow Further'..

wiII heIp you turn your

savings into your capitaI

The money you save remains

dormant in the banks

But your money has the capacity to

make more money, as your capitaI

The best medium to achieve that

is to invest in the stock-market

We wiII heIp you achieve that

We'II keep giving you accurate

information and research..

whose foundations wiII Iie

in our rich experience

We want new investors to be

drawn to the stock-market..

so that they invest in shares

They wiII not onIy

earn more money..

but aIso take part in the

growth of the country

Subodh, how are you?

- Jayant..?

How're you doing?

- Great!

It's been so Iong, isn't

it? Sit down, pIease

You have quite a posh office here

Yeah, one has to do aII

this to Iure new cIients

I seII not just shares,

I aIso seII dreams

If the office of a dream-merchant

is no good.. who'II go to him?

Hey! That's Bhejani's photograph.

- Yes..

that's what reaI success is

He happens to be my hero.

- You aIways dream big

Have you spoken to Vidya?

I've heard her father hasn't

been keeping weII of Iate

I thought I'd reach

a decent IeveI..

then get Vidya out of that chawI

and start a better Iife with her

But it's stiII a struggIe

to stand on my own feet

How on earth do I go to her?

What's up, son? Where have you been?

And why're you standing

outside today?

Why don't you go inside Iike the

others to jump and dance around?

I can't go inside, sis.

They've ostracized me

UntiI I atone for my wrongdoing,

entry for me is forbidden

God AImighty! And how

are you going to atone?

Good Lord!

Hari-bhai..

See you Iater, sis

How're you doing?

- You?

Now give me the Iatest.

- Listen..

this one's cIear, isn't it?

I don't know about RMA

And JD-stuff wiII be cIear

tomorrow. - Did you buy DCC?

DCC..? What for? That's

risen by 50 rupees

Hari, didn't I ask you to buy it?

50 rupees is nothing,

it'II rise even more!

Subodh, you ought to understand.

Do pIay your game..

but know what the market is Iike.

There's a sIump, my friend

You're taIking about buying

shares nobody wants to buy?

Know what? Take it from

the cIients in writing

We ought to get our money. What

if there's a probIem Iater?

Hari, I can't expIain

my pIan to you.

Because it's aII there

in front of you

It's no secret! You're the

one I'm deaIing through

Whatever happens, just buy whatever

I ask you to buy. PIease!

Subodh, you toId me that my

investment wouId even be doubIed?

Mr Thomas, this is the

stock-market. It takes some time

Don't worry, I'm with you.

- You're with me, no doubt..

but my money's stiII..

- Just wait for 2 months..

tiII the monsoons. Every word of

what I say is going to come true

Wait onIy for two months.

- But Subodh..

One moment

Subodh? I wish to

seII aII my shares

What?

- Prakash JaiswaI here

Very weII. I'II buy aII the shares
