Today, right now

Get up! Sleeping giants

Let us sleep, uncle

l'll be back later

What's going on?

What are you two doing?

So you're Calcutta's biggest

gangsters?

That doesn't mean you can do

as you please

What did you think?

l'm a cabaret dancer, l have

no honour

l'd happily end up in bed

with one. Then the other

We're honourable folk

We love you

You both do?

Yes!

l see

One lover and one for free?

That's a new one

Love doesn't run on a single track

lt needs two tracks

To go straight to the heart...

...you need to win the heart

So? We'll win your heart

So confident?

Ok

Agreed

l'll give you a week

Try winning my heart if you

have the guts

What if we manage it?

l, Nandita, give you my word

l will belong forever to the one

who wins my heart

You made an entry in my heart,

bells rang out

Listen to my heart's commentary

Don't delay

Love can't be stopped.

lt'll soon engulf you

No warranty against heartbreak

You made an entry in my heart,

bells rang out

What? You're supposed to be

a big time gangster

l'm in love

Sure?

Take my thumbprint

All right!

No whistling

No winking

No hitting on me

Great lovers are sweet liars

Telling tall stories of love

Take from me

Vows of fidelity

We're under your spell.

Our hearts are yours

Many are my lovers

From all around the country

When l made my entry...

...bells rang out

Trying to win me with your

sweet talk

Trying to get closer

You simpleton! You don't know me

Mistaking an ember for a star

l want you as you are

You're my very life

l want you as you are

You're the one l shall win

Sentiment is making you go

all sentimental

You made an entry in my heart,

bells rang out

Please, madam

What?

Did you hear bells ring?

Meaning?

lt's been a week

So it has

Give us your answer

l've made my mind up

l like one of you

l've given my word to

Goddess Durga

l'll worship Her with the man

of my choice

What's this?

A ticket

To my heart

Such a big question

Deserves a fitting answer

Tomorrow evening, at 6

Metro cinema

- Got the ticket

- ...to her heart

Their gangster talents are gone

All for a girl

Drunken swagger, rosy cheeks

Not rosy...red

The colour of love is red

The colour of blood, too

When a bullet or passion hits you,

you're a goner

Meaning?

Mister! Tread carefully on

the path of love

A treacherous path it is

This path of love

Shall we?

- Don't feel like it today

- Neither do l

l am light-headed without

alcohol

My sweet Bala

One of us becomes her hero

tomorrow

And the other is a round zero

He'll cry. And believe that...

...he is a sinner for desiring

his sister-in-law

Bikram, promise me

Whoever she chooses must not

ruin our friendship

- Promise?

- Sure?

Take my thumbprint

You're so alluring

l am drunk with love

l'm drunk with love too!

She means me

She says she loves me

Hey hero!

She's my bride. Touch her and

l'll bury you alive

You'll bury me?

You'll shoot me?

Nandita, go!

Stop!

He's shot him

Bala, run

l'll see Nandita home. Meet

me under the bridge

Run!

What does life want of me?

When l try to be human...

...life explodes in my face

lt wasn't your fault

You didn't mean to kill him.

lt was a mistake

A mistake?

Durga festival is next week

The police will be everywhere.

The ACP is after our blood

Leave town for a few days

- Go to Das in Dhanbad

- And Nandita?

l can't go without knowing

her decision

- You nuts?

- l love her

You're mad. Stop talking

like a kid

You shot a man in full view

You'll be arrested if you stay

Ok, but promise me

You won't see or talk to Nandita

till l return

She belongs to us both

l promise

She belongs to us both

till you return

- Your thumbprint?

- Want a slap?

The Goddess's idol is almost ready

She's incomplete without

a weapon

So l did the needful

Hail Goddess Durga!

Smart. Very smart

What did you say? This will be

fun. So, is it fun?

One friend is here, the other

is on the run

l came here to tell you

l know full well

Who murdered the man

in the cinema

This time l have proof and witnesses

Tell your friend if he wants to

stay alive...

keep away from Calcutta

lf he returns...

...he'll be welcomed by

a police bullet. Mine

Why don't you change your ways?

We're like coal

Scrub as hard as you want

But you can't wash away the dirt

When we walk on the street,

there's a question in every eye

Who are you? Why are you

here? Where are you from?

We have no answers

l don't know about the others

But in my eyes

l see no difference between

you and me

Come with me. lf you stay alone,

you'll go crazy

No, l'm fine

Why?

Bala isn't here

So?

l made him a promise

That l wouldn't see or talk

to you till he returns

What's this childishness?

Not childishness. Friendship

l respect your friendship

But l came here to tell you...

l love you, Bikram

And yes

l made a promise too

To Goddess Durga

That l'd worship Her with

the man l love

So this evening you'll pray

with me

Or else...

l'll never see you again

ls that the truth?

l swear on Goddess Durga

What now?

Calcutta will explode like this

coal mine

Why are you here, Himanshu?

l told you to stay away

Bala is back, sir

His eyes are red with rage

Let's go play Holi

Hail Goddess Durga!

Ghosh, surround the temple

Chatterji, cover the ghat.

You, come with me

Sir, look there

What are you doing here?

Happy Dusshera!

Bala, what are you doing here?

What difference does it make?

You did as you pleased

What do you mean?

You could've waited

Why the big hurry?

l would've happily got

you married

- Bala, let me explain

- Nothing left to explain

lt hurts me to know...

You didn't once think of our

friendship or your promise

lt's all over, my friend

As a boy you used to say...

l was hotheaded

l boil over like hot milk

Today l won't boil

l'll explode

Got you!

Bala!

Over here

Look over there

We've got him

Stop. Bala!

Come up!

O Goddess!

The scum escaped

Smart. Very smart

Bala was saved from my bullet

But can he shake off the guilt of

shooting his love?

What shall we do?

We do nothing

Newton's law

For every action there is an

opposite reaction

Things will just happen. Let's go

Cursed by the evil eye

Maybe mine

l am both Durga and kali

Goddesses do not fear

the evil eye

This is the first time in my life

l'm scared

For my sake?

Don't worry. l have two bullets for

breakfast every morning

Did the doctor mix hash

in your glucose?

No, l mixed...

...poison...

...in your friendship

Bala was always like this

Hotheaded

l'll explain things to him.

He'll understand

Can l say something?

You must forgive Bala

Satyajit Sarkar

You've stirred up a storm

The phone hasn't stopped ringing

There's chaos in Parliament

A shoot out in a public place?

And during Durga festival?

Explain this to me

lf you have proof against

these two...

...why not arrest them?

What are you waiting for?

War

The war of love has great power

They were once inseparable
