they were criminals

Yet benefactors to the needy

They were illiterate

Yet they built schools in their

names, hospitals, too

They lived by their own rules

No one could match their attitude

Calcutta was now famous for teo

things:

The Howrah Bridge

And Bikram and Bala

The city's toughest outlaws

Long live Bikram and Bala

To every force there's

a counter force

l am the equilibrium in this tale

Transferred me overnight?

ls Calcutta safe and sound?

lf it were safe, would l call

my best officer?

l'm under great pressure, Satya

The elections and Durga festival

are 3 weeks away

Every political party

has one concern:

To get the unemployed youth

back on the right path

Clean up the city

That's government work. Why us?

So many files?

Only two culprits. Bikram and Bala

They're behind everything illegal

Calcutta's biggest outlaws

in the eyes of the law

Yet benefactors to the needy

Roaming scotfree. Outlaws since

they were 14

You called me to help them

grow up?

Shall l try?

Yes. But we have no proof

or witnesses

Two peas in a pod

Break them

Your thumbprint here

l keep saying:
"Take my thumbprint."

Now you won't stop

Your work is done. These deeds

are for Bala's shares

He wants to be an artist. Won't stop

painting Goddess Durga's eyes

Try it, uncle. A good deed

You'll go straight to heaven

- Where are they?

- lnside

Where to?

Another word and l'll pull

your tongue out

What do you call them?

Lions?

Bikram and Bala?

Show some respect

Scum! Giving advice to sir?

Where are they?

Upstairs

Das called from Dhanbad

He wants us to sign

the coal mine deal

Put it down

Who is Bikram? And Bala?

Can't he tell?

A man stands before Goddess

Durga and asks...

...are You the Goddess?

Smart, very smart

l'm Satyajit Sarkar

The new Asst. Commissioner Police

Calcutta's top cop?

But Calcutta belongs to us and

we belong to Calcutta

A drink? What will you take?

Take? l'm here to give you...

a warning

You see these files?

A saga of your black market deals

The names of politicians

are in files too

The law doesn't need files. lt needs

proof and witnesses

Teaching law to the law, sonny?

The law can get it wrong

We respect the law

The day you have proof and

witnesses, we'll come to you

Right, Bala?

Right

Smart. Very smart

l'll take your word for it

Let's take your files...

...and so be it

l'm opening a new file

The day we have evidence

against you

l'll drag you two like dogs

out of your kingdom

See you soon

Sir, you're a man of the law,

but you act like an outlaw

This will be fun

Sure! We'll see

- Mr Bose, how are you?

- All well

l came to return your money.

Many thanks

Has your club opened?

Not till you cut the ribbon

Sure. We love cutting

Thank you

Another request

Wow!

You drew that?

My nephew Himanshu

Just graduated from college

lt's difficult finding a job

l can't hire him at the club.

His mother will kill him

He respects you so much

Let him work for you

This is no football team so

anyone can just sign up

No football team for me

Why not?

l don't like football, sir

The first Bengali l've met who

doesn't like football

Tell you what

keep him

He'll come in use

l'll be going

l've explained everything.

He'll obey you

Stay here

Thank you

Uncle!

What is it?

Do something for me

lnvite Das to the club

We'll do the coal mine deal

Have you lost your mind?

Do the deal there? ln a public place?

Didn't you hear the ACP?

See a sign:
"Do not urinate here"

That's where men pee the most

The ACP won't come there.

Just call Das

What a great club

Hey! This is European style

How do we use it?

Please come

Lift your dhoti

You're an Englishman now

Madam! This is the gents.

Can't you see?

Sure, l can

What?

This is the gents

The ladies was full.

l had to go. So?

Ladies aren't allowed

l said sorry

This is wrong

Does the door have a sign...

...saying women need a license

to enter?

Just relax

Get back to your business.

Nice and quiet

What was that?

A bomb!

Exploded right in our face

Love is...

...a fire, O Ghalib

That burns without burning

That cannot be extinguished

My peace of mind

ls in your hands, O beauty

l salute love, O friend

l salute love

My looks pierce like an arrow

l have you in my aim

l salute love, O friend

Bikram and Bala are at the club

Doing a deal with Das

Sure?

kill me or spare me

keep me or discard me

Change my life's course

Fill it with joy

Fire burns in my heart

Meet me in some lonely hour

Under the beauty's shadow

Nature comes alive

Many fall under my spell

Crazed with love for me

l salute love, O friend

lmagine a night like this

lmagine a moment like this

lmagine rain falling on us

Drenched by love are we

ln night's lonely journey

Love is unstoppable

Tossing and turning

Burning without flame

The beauty has set me alight

Take a deep breath and sigh

l salute love, O friend

Can we raid the club without

a warrant?

lf we catch them with Das,

no need of a warrant

We book them. Get it?

Finish?

Done?

What is it?

Looking for something

you've lost?

That's right

l won't be lucky today

lf you're not fated to find it,

you won't. Even if you tried

Luck was on their side today.

Yours, too

Luck has a way of turning.

When it does, they'll be mine

Take care of yourself

There's something l want to tell you

Same here

Let's say it together

l've fallen in love with the

bathroom lady

Two hearts, same likes

Bikram, she's so gorgeous

Absolutely delicious

What do we do?

We toss

The winner tries his luck first

The loser tries his luck after that

Then it's up to the girl

She'll decide who is her star,

her Rajesh khanna

And l'll be Vinod khanna

Oh my God!

What's up?

l see Goddess Durga in her

l swear it

She looks like Goddess kali

See for yourself

l see Durga in her,

you'll see kali

l'll see who l see

Yes, you!

Stop grinning

What are you doing here?

Nothing

Why were the police after you?

Police! After me?

Where's your friend?

Waiting his turn

Meaning?

You here to buy fish?

l'll find you the city's best

Brother, the best hilsa

for madam

lt's fresh

How much?

Just a thank you

Meaning?

l mean the fish is a gift

from me

You're gifting me a fish?

A hilsa at that?

ln Calcutta it comes in

a bride's dowry

So accept it as dowry

Dowry?

You acting smart?

Shall l call the police?

l'm off

O beloved, let us go

Let us journey beyond

the moon

l am ready to journey with you

Sarita, come here

Sarita, answer me!

Hurry up!

Tie this up

Hurry! l'm on next

Your hands are shaking

Sarita! You?

l didn't mean to touch you.

You told me to

l came here because...

You came into the gents

by mistake

l made the same mistake

We're even, no?

l'll make it even right now

What time did they get back

last night?

At six this morning

Drunk as skunks

And what were you doing?

Drinking too?

Do Bikram and Bala live here?

Yes

Where?

Upstairs

You want to see them?

How about tomorrow?
