Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

As you can see the crowd of people...

...Sameer Khan.

Yes, tonight the

biography of Sameer Khan...

...is to be released.

Here he comes, the

greatest action hero...

...the super star, Sameer Khan.

Respected guests,

brothers and sisters...

...when Ms. Abha

expressed her desire to...

...write my

biography I felt very shy.

I said, I am a very simple person.

But she insisted

that this generation...

...will be inspired

So, I couldn't deny it.

The entire credit of

this effort goes to her.

My father always used to be sick,

and the financial condition...

...of the house was bad.

I was eager to learn...

...but as there was no

electricity in the house...

All night, I used to sit

under the lamp post all night...

...and study.

I was very keen to learn but

didn't have the money to buy books.

There was one Ismail uncle's

tea-stall near the house...

...I used to clean

plates there and earn money.

It may sound quite filmy, but

that's the story of my life.

You have faced so many

difficulties in life...

...whoever reads it, will

surely become emotional.

I have not faced as many difficulties

as it is there in the book.

What?

- Yes.

The people always like

to read sad stories...

...of a successful man.

Then... all those

things that you told me...

...your difficulties,

the lamp post thing

...are all those things, lies?

Then what's the truth?

The truth is the cheque

that you received. Cheers

Hey Sunny.

How are you? Congratulations.

- Thanks, thanks brother.

So, your biography

has been published...

I saw your film. It is super hit.

You performance is mind-blowing...

- No.

How do you do that?

This time you will

grab all the awards...

No! As long as you

are there... no way...

...how can I get any award...

- Forget it.

This time the award is yours...

- No... No...

I saw the teaser of your

new film. Did you like it?

It was amazing, what a performance!

I'm sure it will be a super-hit...

- Oh... Mr. Deshpandey...

I will see you later... Ok... ok...

He is a big fraud.

Everything in the

biography must be lies.

Lire!

- A bad man and a worst actor.

I saw the teaser of his new film.

Not a single soul is going to watch

it... it is going to be a disaster.

I heard that his film had flopped.

I heard it too. - From

Monday there will not be any show.

Sir, Sanya.

- Hi.

O my God!... Sir. I can't believe

this, I can't believe this Sir.

Believe... He is The One.

Sir, I am a very big

fan of yours... Sir.

You are simply great.

You are great sir, you

are great. You are great.

Its al right, tell

him what you want...

Work...

- Abrar Sir... - Oh.

Sir, I believe Mr. Abrar is

making a musical with you? -Yes.

I want you to give me the

lead role in that. - What?

Tell him all about your talents...

Sir, I know all forms of dances...

I know Bharat Natyam,

Kuchipudi, Odisi...

Sir, I even do western dance.

I am sure sir, if you talk to him...

...he will surely give me the role.

- But?

Sir, you can audition her...

...would you mind an audition?

Not at all Sir... any day, anytime.

She says

- 'any day- anytime. ' - Okay.

Thank him...

- Thank you.

D' Silva, take a photo.

Sir, please sir.

Put your arm around his shoulder.

But it is not the truth Sir.

Then what's the truth?

The truth is that your

client is very rich man...

...who can engage a big

lawyer like you, buy witnesses...

...and erase evidences.

And the truth is, you

took advantage of it.

Enough Jai... you are

crossing your limits.

And the truth is that, we

lawyers are responsible...

...for this injustice.

You may be responsible, but not me.

If you couldn't compete with me...

...then that's not my problem.

Precisely that's what

I wanted to say Sir.

Is the Court just a

ring where we lawyers...

...show off our

skills and techniques...

...and nothing else?

While donning this black coat,

we had taken an oath...

...that we will always

search for the truth...

...and we will get justice.

Giving justice is

the job of the court.

Not mine.

...I am a lawyer,

and I practice law...

...and the court rendered Justice.

There is yet another higher Court,...

...and that's the

world's... biggest Court

...and that's the

Court of Conscience.

And one day, you have

to face that Court...

All these are bookish craps...

...in real life, these

things hold no meaning.

I know only one thing

- that is Success.

And those who are

successful are right.

Okay that's it, thank you.

What happened Mr. Sameer.

- Nice, nice... very nice.

Very good work Tusshar, great job.

Thank you Sir.

Sir, you should see the next scene...

...you are too good Sir.

I am OK, but

Tusshar has done so well.

Mark my words Tusshar you will

be out somewhere with this film...

Thank you again Sir.

Bye Sir.

- Bye... Take care, take care.

Very good direction.

- Thank you.

Sir, Mr. Anand is

still waiting outside.

You still didn't get rid of him?

You don't seem to be

doing anything right.

Sir, did you like the film.

Yes, Nice, very nice,

Tusshar's role is very good.

He is the heart of the film...

So you have got a

hero for your next film.

What are you saying sir?

You are the hero of our next film.

We have taken the money...

...from the distributors, we

have even announced your name.

Tusshar is a good boy,

and he does so well...

You make your next film with him...

Isn't it Narayan?

- Yes Sir

Now you do your film

with Tusshar only...

OK bye...

Sir... I will be ruined

if you don't do my film.

Autograph, please.

Try to understand the hint...

...cut that fellows role

or you will be finished...

I understand, I will

cut his portions...

How can you do that?

According to the script...

To hell with the script!

And my direction... To

hell with your direction...

Now whatever I say has to happen.

What are you saying?

I mean, whatever the

Hero says should happen...

Grandpa, Sameer...

Sameer!

- Mr. Anand, you here.

When did you come?

Just an hour and half ago...

You have been sitting

here for the past one...

...and half hours

and no one told me.

Narayan, why didn't you tell me?

Sir sorry, I forgot and you were...

Shut up, do you know who he is?

He is industry's

senior most director.

He has made many

successful people in the industry...

...and you made him to

wait so long. Bloody fool.

Never mind, I was

just relaxing here.

This is my grand daughter, Nandini.

She works in the

forensic department.

I was not feeling well

today so she came with me...

Sir, you could have

called me to your place.

What can I do for you Sir...

I had given you a script a

year ago... do you remember...

...I think you must have read it.

- Yes, yes...

It is 20 years of my labour...

...I want to make a film on that.

It will be a good film,

you will be proud of it.

I have two grand daughters...

...before I die I want to

do something for them...

Sir, just say when

you want to start?

Whenever you say...
