in love with me soon

We'll marry. All will be well

What rot are you talking?

You crazy?

My head is all there.

lt's my heart that aches

l have no peace

Swear on Goddess Durga

l'll love you so much, you won't

think of Bikram again

Have you gone mad?

- Think what you're saying

- l have

Forget about Bikram or else...

- Or else, what?

- Or else l'll kill you

What about your manhood? Aiming

your gun on any pretext?

Want the truth?

You're very brave, right?

So let me clear up things

lf l stayed with you for a

few days...

...or a few months or years

l'll never stop loving Bikram

Want to know why?

He knows what's right and

wrong. You don't

You came from the same coal mine

But he's a diamond

and you're just coal

Bikram didn't sweep me

off my feet

He didn't seduce me either

l fell in love with him

l wanted him to love me

But he wanted to wait for you

He promised a friend. But what

did that friend do?

Aimed a gun at him

You want to love me?

You never cared for your friend.

Would you care for me?

Tell you what

Shoot me

Go on!

l'll never be yours as long

as l live

Meera once pined for krishna

Leaving shame and the world behind

To yearn and pine in love

ls krishna's turn now

l lost my life

lt was a game for you

Estranged from myself

Broken inside

l was loyal to love

Robbed myself of everything

lt's all gone now

Life has no meaning without

my beloved

Why do l see only my beloved?

When she hurts me

Rejects me so

Sorry

Madam, l love you too

You'll bury me?

My dreams were shattered

By the blows of sorrow

l cannot escape desire's whirlpool

No one to save me,

none to call out to me

Yet l hear a voice beckoning

from beyond the clouds

How lost l am without my beloved

Don't know how to apologise

Never had to before

This is the first time l've loved

My pride was hurt

Now my heart is broken

Try and forgive me

Who are you?

Who do you work for?

Good job, officer

l can't do this anymore

l want out of this mission

Why? Have you fallen in love

for real?

Have you lost your mind?

They're criminals. Outlaws

lt was all an act to bring them

to court

You're right. That was

my plan too

But l got to know them

Behind their bad name

They're innocent souls

with love in their hearts

They're children, sir

l can't play this game

with them anymore

So they must have some virtues

l can hear their voices behind

your words

lt's the truth, sir

They're not responsible for

their bad deeds

Circumstances were bad

Two wrongs don't make a right

Who doesn't face hard times?

What if everyone took to crime,

blaming circumstances?

lt's no longer about them, Nandita

lf we let them go, we set a bad

example for wayward boys

They're trapped in a dark tunnel

with no light at the end

lt's the law. l'll do my duty.

And so must you

Control your feelings. Do your duty

You'll know what's right

Bannerjee?

Tell Himanshu, it's time to take

his revenge

Where is Bala?

At the coal mine with Das

- Who is with him?

- Our men

- What is it?

- l'll explain later. ls Nandita ok?

Nandita? Bala left her at your

place this morning

What?

The man in the cinema who Bala shot

is alive

He's a cop

A trap Satyajit Sarkar set for us

He knew full well

To divide us he had to first

break us

To cause a rift between us

No point in going over the past

Let's plan our next move

The law will help us

So it'll be on our side?

There is law and order and

a system here

Like hell there is!

What law and order and system

do you mean?

The system only grabs

lt snatched away our childhood

and put guns in our hands

We tried to do the right thing,

but it blackened our faces

Nandita, your system gives birth

to outlaws like us

lt plays with us

Then plots to kill us

Everyone has the chance to

redeem themselves

We made no mistakes

We only wanted our rights

We grabbed them when we

didn't get them

What will you do?

Grab them again

l must call Bala back

No, Bikram

You promised you wouldn't break

the law again

l never promised not to help

my innocent friend

l'm going

You're coming with me

l can't come with you

And you're going nowhere

lnspector Nandita Sengupta

Calcutta police

Damn it!

l get it!

Satyajit used the finest fish

to trap a crocodile

Listen to me

Surrender yourself.

l'll help you

What are you made of?

l'm only doing my job, Bikram

That's the truth. lt's also true

that l love you

You must believe me

And l'm the Prime Minister?

You believe me?

We would've died for you

from day one

We would've surrendered,

just for your smile

But you're the system, too

We were born when

the country was divided

And you divided our hearts

Mine and Bala's

Give me a chance to help you

And Bala?

Who saves Bala?

Think of yourself first

We'll worry about him later

- lf you go now...

- That's what l'm about to do

We're outlaws, madam

Once we live with someone

We die with them too

Stop, Bikram

- What's Das doing here?

- Don't know. He asked us down

Where's Das?

Life's cycle ends where it started

Who are you? Eh?

You want the whole story?

Listen

The train...

Full of coal? Remember Dibakar?

Remember the boy whose face

was covered?

Dibakar was my brother

l'll bury you in the coal you stole

from Dibakar and killed him

Never should trust a Bengali

who doesn't like football

Don't laugh, scum.

Remember

lf Bikram hears of this...

...you'll die a worse death

than Dibakar

Do you think our plans are

so flimsy?

The girl you wanted to kill

one another for...

...she's the ace in the pack

Nandita is a police inspector

Satyajit Sarkar sent her to divide

you adoring friends

Bikram and Bala

And as far as l know...

...Bikram has died at the hands

of his lover

And l bury you here

A perfect tragedy.

Push him in!

Who'll save you?

See who's there

Find them!

lf you're reborn a Bengali,

make sure you like football

Forgive me if l apologise?

Since when did you need to?

l made a terrible mistake

l didn't think straight. Don't

know what l was doing

Forgive me, friend

Done!

Sure?

Take my thumbprint

l didn't know this mission would

take such a toll on you

But the job is done

You don't have to come

with me. Go

No, sir

Until they surrender...

...this mission won't be over

for you or for me

Don't laugh

Stupid idea we had!

Toss and the winner is her

Rajesh khanna

Her hero! Like hell

Now eat her bullet.

Be the bad guy

We really loved her

When we first saw her

our lives turned rosy

Now we get shot and our

rosy lives will turn red

Whatever happens,

we regret nothing

Forgive Nandita

She loves you. l swear on

Goddess Durga

Forgive her

lf you don't forgive her,

you won't forget her

And your heart will torment you

- l hit you because of her

- l shot at you. We're even

Forgive her

For my sake

We're big-hearted, even if

they aren't

- l forgive her

- You haven't

l said it

- l forgive her

- Liar!

- You haven't

- Want my thumbprint?

That's more like it!
