Ghatak: Lethal Page #7

---

Kashi alone is enough

to do that for me!

For how long will you sit there

like a bloody statue?

who will bring back your son?

They've said that they want Kashi

in return for your son.

And since Kashi is not here now,

how will your son return?

what will you do, if something

happens to your son?!

O Lord! You've always

been merciful towards us...

- where can l find Katiya?

- why do you want Katiya at this hour?

l want him...

Let's go and find him!

- But what's happened?

- They've taken my nephew away!

They want me... they'll get me!

Let's go and find Katiya.

- But Katiya...

- l'll tear the scoundrel apart...

...if my nephew suffers

as much as a scratch!

Relax, Kashi... the kid will

be okay; God will protect him.

Besides, you just can't walk in

on Katiya like this.

lt's difficult to tell the

movements of even his brothers.

But you can meet his

brother Antya tomorrow.

He visits the City light Club every

evening to collect the spoils.

This is where you will

find him, Kashi.

- l'll find Antya here, won't l?

- of course; he comes here everyday.

Two tickets, please.

Don't let the joint mislead you.

lt isn't what it appears to be.

Let's go inside... the

real fun lies there.

Leave me alone, Chandru...

Else, he'll go away!

Easy come, easy go, baby...

Nothing comes out of it!

- what's wrong with you?

- Nothing.

Do you know that girl?

- That isn't the same Gauri, is she?

- No.

Here you are, Sir...

Today's collection.

So little?

Have you been stealing the dough

or are the collections really low?

Anrway... go and deal with Gauri.

And you keep the money.

How will we manage if you

continue like this, Gauri?

The bosses at the Club

will throw us out...

...and without the money, how will

l be able to treat your sister?

what'll l do? Nothing...

And there are so many more tests

that have to be carried out.

Tell me now, whether this

is true or not...

A lame-horse is always

shot dead, isn't it?

what do we do with the humans?

Nothing?

Aren't you ashamed to speak

like this about your wife?

Not at all.

Okay. You'll get the kid.

But you'd have to fight

Akram Khan Paqhtuni for that.

To get my nephew back,

l'd fight anyone.

Uncle! Uncle!

That's a terrible character!

He kills a man and then

plucks his heart out!

That's what they say about him.

He'd need a real heart

to pluck out mine.

- My son!

- Uncle!

lt's good that you've stopped him.

Or you'd have been six brothers

instead of seven!

l'm happy to have witnessed

your acts of bravery.

You will also be happy to know...

...that you shall henceforth

work for my gang.

This is a laborer's hand, Katiya...

...which can even mould raw iron.

This is strength l've earned from

money earned with toil and sweat.

l don't need to live on the

crumbs somebody throws to me.

Rather than live the life of

scum in the filthy streets...

...you should rather live among

real men; like a tiger.

Even a caged-tiger is nothing

more than a mere dog, Katiya!

You want me to be a mere dog

at your feet, do you?

A dog which barks and

bites at your will?!

You could say that...

So what's wrong?

Should you work for me,

you'll soon be famous.

You'll receive handsome rewards.

Besides earning a lot of money...

...you'll be a

widely respected man...

...and people will

be terrified of you.

Only cowards, who have water flowing

in their veins, terrorize people!

lf you're really fond of

flaunting your manliness...

...stop depending

on your dogs, Katiya!

He walks into our den

and humiliates us!

That's enough!

l'll now have to plan

a death for him.

- Yes, sister?

- what's wrong?

You seem to be lost in

your thoughts these days.

what's up? Had a tiff

with Kashi, did you?

Not at all. There's nothing

of the sort, sister.

Didn't you tell me that

Kashi's going to visit us?

when is he coming over?

He'll never come here

now, sister... Never.

But why?

- He saw me at the club.

- So?

l hadn't told him that

l dance at the club...

And why didn't you tell him?

You should've told him...

...that it's not

out of your will...

...but to save your sister

that you dance at the club!

l knew something of the sort

would happen one day.

And you...! Hadn't l already

warned you?

why are you spoiling your life

for my sake?

l wish l'd die...

Don't say that, sister...

lt's still not late...

Tell Kashi the truth...

l'm sure he'd understand.

l'm sure he'd never desert you.

Please hear me out, Kashi...

what else can l now listen to?

Haven't l already seen enough?

Try and con the Almighty now...

He's innocent;

He'll believe your tale.

But it is you l want to

explain the truth to!

we had to go through all this

because of Chandru.

l wanted to tell you everything

on several occasions...

But for fear of losing you,

l just couldn't...

l'll leave now, Kashi.

l'm taking my father back

to Benaras tomorrow.

The doctor has given up hopes.

He wants my father to spend

the rest of his days in peace.

But l will return

to take you away.

You will accompany me

to Benaras, won't you?

l'd have been happy, had

you too accompanied us, Shiv.

This thing about the land

is yet to be sorted out.

Besides, my son has his school too.

l can't come over just yet.

well then, brother... Forgive me

for any mistake l must've made.

why must you say that?!

You'll see that l'll call you back

the moment this thing is sorted out.

And you... why did you have to

take Katiya on again?

- Couldn't you keep quiet?

- And do what? Be a slave to him?

- Lick his feet?!

- There you go again...

l hate this habit of yours!

Just forget the past.

You must never fight when

you set out on a journey.

Take good care of your

wife and your son, okay?

You'll come to me at Benaras,

won't you Munna?

Bless you.

what are you guys up to?!

Let him go! Leave him alone!

what has he done, after all?!

Leave him alone!

Listen! Please listen to me!

Listen! Please!

The window! Use the window!

Hurry up!

Let him go!

Someone save my brother,...!

Help! Don't hit him!

Let him go! Please don't hit him!

Please save Kashi!

Let Kashi go, Katiya...

Please spare him!

Please don't hit him!

Please let my son go!

No...! Please don't!

Please set my son free!

Your father's a bloody dog!

Do you see that, Kashi Nath?!

You had claimed that you didn't

want to be a dog at my feet.

But look at this...

...your father is wagging his

tail before me, as a dog would!

He's even licking my boots!

And a dog's offspring can only

be a dog; never a lion!

Your father's a dog;

and you're a son-of-b*tch!

You're a dog, no less!

l could have killed you the

other day, if l so wished.

But granting you death then...

...would have been a reward

for your bravery...

...and not a punishment!

This... this is your punishment!

Just look at his state...

this is what your punishment is!

You will curse yourself every time

you take a breath, hereafter!

Your life will seem to be a burden
