to fear death we don't pretend.

And this, we roar at the sky.

Kiran's answer-sheet has disappeared.

Without a minimum score of 60%..

..she won't be eligible

to stand for the election.

"Its begun, it's a flood a

thousand heads smell blood.

It's time for the battle cry."

"For the glory and the pride,

give Iimb or Iife or step aside."

"It's time to let arrows fly."

"Well begun is half the battle won."

Hello.. Dad?

Yes, I am fighting the elections.

Why don't you tell Ransa

to withdraw? Why always us?

Hello, tell me, talk to me.

Will you declare us as

your legitimate heirs?

What did he say?

Your father had no answer.

Your answer-sheet has vanished.

Vanished?

Brought a new one. Fill it up.

You broke your guitar string, right?

Replace it..

Where's Duki Bana?

Why?

Give the answer.

Sit here.

Let go.

What's the problem, tell

me, but stop shouting first.

Who does he think he is?

How dare he take money from

His Highness in my name?

The thing is, the thing is..

..whatever expectations this

country had from anyone..

I've already heard that one.

Whatever expectations this

country had from anyone..

I told you I've heard

it fifty times already.

You've heard it but haven't

understood it. So, understand it.

Whatever expectations this

country had from anyone..

He flushed those

expectations down the toilet.

Please go inside.

I am going. I am going.

I have never taken

five cents my father..

How dare you'll..

We don't know who your father is.

You know everything.

He was the great pretender.

Thought he was the king of the city.

Shut up. - You act

too smart! - Move off.

Hello.

- Hello.

Come on in. Is Bana inside?

Hey.

Very smart.

Bana.

What do you think of yourself?

Who the hell do you think you are?

You went to His Highness.

Where is the money?

With me. Why?

How dare you take it?

You knew who I was?

I didn't know a thing. This is crazy.

We didn't take your money.

His Highness came to meet me.

He heard you were

contesting the elections.

He's a true blooded Rajput.

He said, "See to it that

my son does not lose."

I said, "okay." He dumped

the money in my hand and left.

I want all the money back.

Bhati.

Think it over.

Why the hell are you touching it?

Do you want to eat me?

Keep your fangs and claws to yourself.

Don't yell..

One slap and I'll break all your teeth.

Get out, get out, this is

my parlour, get out. Shut up.

I'll throw you out, you

understand. Don't shout at me.

You.. you'd gone to

get water. Where is it?

Don't talk to me Iike that.

My love, please get me water.

What happened? Where's the water?

Go get the water yourself.

What's wrong now?

My show is playing on the video..

Outside. I'll go once it's over.

I'll throw your cassette in the gutter.

The heroine leaves only

once the show is over.

Have you told him I've

acted in a TV show?

I was the heroine. My show never aired.

The channel shut shop,

I had to come back here.

Did you know that he hits me?

He does the right thing.

Get five lakh from the

lot and give it to him.

Tell him that's all the king gave us.

And get me to speak to His Highness.

What's your phone number?

Give me your number?

Take my address instead.

Not now, later. Go back there now.

Move your hand. Go.

Go home now. Bhati's on his

way there with the money.

And don't drive me nuts Iike this again.

Why did you have to go

screaming to my house?

You're a royal too. I have

an image to Iive up to.

"I pine for you, I wait for you."

Forget it. You weren't

thinking of withdrawing from..

..the elections in anger I hope.

No.

Sure?

- "Your anger mesmerizes me."

"I'm bowled over by you."

"I am in love with you."

He's a good lad..

- Shut up!

You cuddle him again..

..I'll get the whole of Rajpur to

watch you dance naked in the streets.

Don't ever come back again.

If you do, then I'll go away.

What's for dinner?

Bittu, you are not

doing the right thing.

That girl comes here and dopes..

What if your father finds out?

Don't stir things up.

Hello? You were supposed

to come by my place.

Okay. I see. Now, I'm coming.

You want to come with

me to Duki Bana's place?

I need to pick up the money.

Get in. Come on.

- Who are you?

Get in.

- Lock the door.

What were you doing just

standing there, you idiot?!

Bana, I couldn't figure

out what was happening.

The bike was stuck between my legs..

I couldn't see anything

when Ransa went there.

Should I call the police?

Give me some water.

- Here.

Where's Ransa?

I don't know Bana.

Where's Jadwal?

I haven't seen him for four days now..

Murari, who's kidnapped Ransa?

I don't know Bana..

It's not your fault.

Why do I feel so scared?

I can't do anything

when Ransa's not with me.

Bana, I have no idea

who kidnapped Ransa.

I haven't, neither have my boys.

If something's troubling

you then please tell me.

Murari's lost two fingers.

I've suffered a lot.

We can never get upset with you.

But I must say that it's not

right that any of your men can..

..just walk up to one of ours

and beat him up. It's not right.

I had gone to the village

when this happened.

With the elections around the corner?

My grandfather passed away.

There is no point in kidnapping Ransa.

The real high would be in beating

him in the elections by 5000 votes..

..and then I'll shave his head

and parade him on a donkey.

You idiot.

- Shut up, you fool.

Let him go.

Rananjay..

Another five years and it'll

be His Highness Rananjay.

Don't you want to take

your father's place?

Is your father alive or dead?

Idiot, if only you'd use

your hands on the form..

..instead of your mouth,

you'd be better off.

Withdraw from the elections.

Is your father alive or dead?

Otherwise, you'll

never leave this place.

Is it true that he never

married your mother?

You and your sister are

both illegitimate, right?

I'm asking you one last time.

Are you going to withdraw or not?

If your father had withdrawn in time..

..you wouldn't have been illegitimate.

Let me tell you the story of a time..

When the city was

sleeping one deadly night..

Let me tell you the story of a time..

When the city was

sleeping one deadly night..

Shadows creep in over this

land from all four sides..

Creatures of night wed in

blood, dance with their brides..

"Shadows creep in over this

land from all four sides.."

Creatures of night wed in

blood, dance with their brides..

Crimson smeared on every face.

A great danger at every place..

That night the skies let

loose a shower of blood..

That night the city was

lashed by a crimson flood..

That night the skies let

loose a shower of blood..

That night the city was

lashed by a crimson flood..

The city and the earth were

soaked as if they'd been cursed..

A horde of men just lay

there till they burst..

The world inquires why

when this curse came by..

..was our city lying in bed,

eyes closed and sleeping.

My sleep was deep, the

city said, it knew not why..
