Who told you?

- Technology.

I installed surveillance

cameras outside Royal Mansion.

Cameras?

And I just received

a MMS from that.

MMS.

- MMS. - See.

See.

That's Royal Mansion.

See. See.

Who's getting down from the car?

He's Bhooteriya.

He looks like a villain.

Yes, Manoranjana.

Suresh bhai, thank you.

Ramesh bhai, congratulations.

Bhooteriya sir, all yours.

See, Guliyani.

When Bhooteriya sets

his eyes on something..

Yes!

- ..he always gets it.

Yes! Now watch what

I do with this place.

I will give it a complete makeover.

But sir, what will you build here?

I'll build a 5 floor mall.

I've also thought of a name.

Bhooteriya 5 Star Plaza.

Oh my god. What's this?

- It's run out of battery.

We'll go home and recharge it.

Let's go to Royal Mansion. Follow me.

- Cadets. Comrades.. lets go.

Oh, God. Look.

Cheers.

Everything has been settled,

no problem.

Cheers.

Look at him. After giving us

pain they're drinking champagne.

We'll have to do something.

There's just one problem,

Mr Bhooteriya sir.

Heritage site status.

- No, sir.

There are two problems, sir.

One is heritage site.

And second is... very big

Quiet. Ghost. Stop stammering.

Go.

Ask the architect to start work.

- Yes.

Tell him to make

the best construction.

Mumbai will turn

into Shanghai later.

We'll build our own

mini Shanghai first.

Stop!

What the...

You're talking about

building Shanghai..

..and the Municipality

doesn't have a clue.

So you're from the Municipality.

- No.

The Municipality is in my pocket.

Come here.

- Me?

Me... come here.

Ma..ka..rand.

- Hey!

Not Ma..kha..rand

That's Makhrand Marathe.

Maharashtrian.

The chief of Makad Company.

Get that?

- Yes.

Makad means?

- Makad means monkey.

Ok. I was overhearing your

conversation quietly like a monkey.

Is there a problem

with the heritage status?

No, no, no...

Say it. There's no problem.

All your problems will be solved.

It's the rule of the world.

Give and take.

In the language of Makad

company you give and I take.

Name your price.

20...

Lakh.

Quiet!

Look. 20 means 20 percent.

20 percent? Too much.

Don't try to be too difficult.

Otherwise it will take

just one bullet to kill you.

You have just one week.

Get me my 20 percent

and build your mall.

Makad's, let's go.

Guys, there's a twist

in the story.

Political twist.

- There's not twist.

He's a rich man.

He'll pay the 20 percent.

The politician will get what

he wants and we'll be homeless.

He won't be convinced so easily.

He's a businessman.

He'll negotiate till the end.

That means we have some time..

..and a window of opportunity.

But until then we

can't just sit idle.

Revolt. Bloodbath.

Charge.

No point in screaming and yelling.

Think of an idea, Bhootnath.

- Yes.

I am thinking to over feed

him the Bengali sweets..

..and he'll get high blood sugar.

And he'll die of diabetes.

That's a stupid idea.

Aatmaram, what do you say?

What can I say, sir?

I am a poor man.

Robin, how about you?

I feel we should give

him a sound thrashing.

You can't even play

your guitar properly.

How will you give him

a sound thrashing?

I'll play the guitar.

- Quiet.

Can I say something?

- Yes.

In the year 1857..

Oh no, Not again. Common yaar.

Oh god, Again!

Silence.

It's important, you

will have to hear it.

combat, battle, struggle and War.

The first stage is

always intelligence gathering.

When you find out

your enemy's strength..

..and weaknesses,

you've won half the war.

Then who will win half the war?

This shorty.

I am Khwaja Akbar.

Alias Khwaja Akbar..

I've decided that I

will go to the builder.

I will spy on him.

And I will find his weakness.

By selling him pills?

- Not pills.

I'll floor him with my acting.

I've done many plays.

French, Romans, Countrymen.

Ceaser

You bloody fool.

How dare you talk about

acting in front of Manoranjana?

I was always casted

without the couch. - Idea.

What? Say it.

To make our mission successful..

..we need a cunning

actor like Manoranjana.

Cunning actress?

- I mean successful actress.

Thank you. - So Manoranjana,

get ready for the mission..

Mission Bhooteriya.

"Here comes the carefree ghosts."

200 shops on 1 floor..

..which means 1000 shops

on 5 floors.

1 crore for 1 shop.

1000 shops...

1000...crores.

"Carefree ghosts."

"Carefree ghosts."

Bhooteriya the king.

Come in.

"I won't give it."

"I won't give it."

"I won't give it."

Hi, I am Bhavna.

Bhooteriya.

Nice to touch you.

But without appointment

in my office..

If I had taken an appointment

then I would've been disappointed.

Good. Good.

You did the right thing.

You did the right thing.

What are you playing?

- Golf.

Will you play?

- Will you teach me?

Golf?

Sure. Sure.

Come, come.

Hold. Hold.

Now teach me.

- Yes.

In golf, the stick

should be hard and a good aim.

So that the ball goes

directly in the hole.

Like this.

Mr. Bhooteriya, yes!

I need a favor from you.

Flavor? What flavor?

"I won't give it."

I want a space

in your 5 star Plaza.

But who told you about it?

We haven't even

started this project?

It's confidential.

I've hid it from everyone.

Don't worry,

even I believe in hiding.

Mr. Bhooteriya.

Mr. Bhooteriya.

- Yes.

I've lost my key.

Please find it.

- Yes, sure, sure.

Why not?

It's not..

Do you see it?

I am trying.

Found it.

Found it?

- Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Will you give me space?

I will.

As much as you want.

- You are so sweet.

Oh no.

- What happened?

See, in a hurry

I brought my car keys..

..but I forgot to bring my car .

How will I go back?

Only if I let you go.

- Really?

Yes.

Now will you really give me space?

But what will you

give me in return?

Everything.

Head massage.

Shoulder massage.

Body massage.

Full sensation.

I will touch your strong points.

I hope you don't have a weak point.

My wife.

Are you scared of her?

Yes.

I was scared of her

when she was alive.

Now that she's dead,

I am still scared.

She's dead?

Yes. That's why she haunts

me every night in my dreams.

What happened to her?

- Nothing happened.

I killed her.

What?

- I burnt her alive.

Why?

She nagged me all the time.

I had a chick.

Beautiful chick.

We were having an affair.

When Lakshmi found out

she was jealous.

I thought...let's get her

out of the way forever.

Then? - Then what?

One day when

she set out in her BMW..

..I poured petrol on the car,

and set it ablaze.

I miss her.

The wife?

No, the BMW.

It was worth 65 lakhs.

Actually,

Lakshmi's my weakness, Bhavna.

She doesn't let me sleep all night.

People are right.

Men become ghosts after they die.

But women are always a witch.

"I won't give it."

- Bhavna.

"I won't give it."

Bhavna.

So even though

Manoranjana was dead..

..she still entertained Bhooteriya.

Yes.

But only to know his secret.

But this Bhooteriya

seems like a dangerous man.

Exactly, sir.

And so, the ghosts of

Royal Mansion needs..

..someone more dangerous than
