"Is it love, or a battle?

A colour you cant see..."

"I can figure out nothing, Lord!"

"Everyones all tied up,

what predicament is this?"

"They walk together,

and yetis there a tussle"

To make them see reason...

"is difficult

to make them see reason"

"The actors that perform

in this play..."

Fun and excitement...

Hurry! Its time for school

Jungle! Rascal! Idiot!

- Step on the brakes!

"Youre a girl, and you abuse me?

- You want me to applaud you?"

Why did you push me?

- When did I? You ran into me

You deliberately rammed into me

and now youre talking back!

I know roadside loafers like you.

You see a girl and get into the act!

Watch your tongue! You broke

the button on my shirt...

and now youre calling me a loafer?

Where will I get a button from?

How about the dress which you spoilt?

You know what the laundry bill comes to?

Cant you wash your own clothes?

- Had I the time...

"Id show you what else I can wash.

- Go, get lost"

"Get going!

- Go, go away"

God! I didnt know

You came away to Mumbai without

telling anyone at home

What would you have done

if I wasnt here?

It didnt occur to me at all.

Had I stayed there another day...

my mother wouldve got me married

to the local landlords son

"So whats wrong? You have to

marry someone, dont you?"

But that chaps a nut.

Hes a real moron

My father had borrowed a lot of money

from his father...

for my education and for

my mothers treatment

My father died under

the burden of the debt...

"and hes now pestering my mother.

He says, if you cant repay the debt..."

to my son

He doesnt even want any dowry.

- You mean your life is...

the sum total of the debt

and the interest

So what do you want to do?

- I must find a job at any cost

Ive got to repay the debt

and get rid of the landlord

"Any job will do.

- Easier said than done, Anjali"

Im living here with a friend

whos an air-hostess

"Shell be here by 10:30 next Friday.

Till then, you can stay here"

"But once she arrives, itll be

difficult for you to live here"

"Im sorry, but you mustnt

take that badly, Anjali"

Ive got enough money to see me

through a couple of months

If only I could find a room

till I find a job

Lets see what we can do.

Im getting late. I must leave

When love is one-sided...

its a punishment

"When love is requited,

its fun"

Quiet! Were talking about life

and death and youre hollering away!

"Come around, darling.

- No"

So it has to do with love!

Ill sing a romantic number...

the lady will immediately agree.

- Ive agreed. For a divorce

Im not giving it to you!

- Ive got great number for divorce...

but its a bit romantic and...

- Sing it for your wife!

Now sing a song for losses!

Youre more of a mosquito repellent!

Youve been driving the customers away

"Ill be a great singer some day, sir.

That is my dream"

"Pipe-dream. Go away

- Todays the 4th., sir..."

When did I say its the 34th?

- My salary...?

I have it all worked out.

300 bucks. Let me have it

"But we settled at 4000 rupees.

- Sure, we did"

You do get a salary of 4000.

But who pays for your stay here?

Who pays for your food

and your laundry?

It works out to 4300. Your salarys

4000. So let me have 300 rupees

"But this is a fraud, sir!

- Really?"

So go and find another job.

Get lost!

Hey Bholu! Your milks getting

thinner and thinner every day

Are you pouring water in it?

"I swear, Ive never

adulterated milk with water"

"But yes, I do adulterate

water with milk"

"Buy it, if you can afford it.

Or forget it"

"Hello, Nandu! How are you?

Why dont you sing a song as usual?"

"Sing, my foot! Ive heard the

mosquitoes singing all night"

Dont you have a mosquito net

in the room?

"Forget a mosquito net, it doesnt

even have a roof and walls"

I slept on the railway platform.

- You must think of me at such times

I have a great place.

Its going cheap

But youll need to pay me

a commission for that

500 rupees.

- I will. But where is it?

Ill show you... do you have a wife?

- Wife?!

"You know Popat, the moneylender?

He lets out his room very cheap"

But only to married couples.

- Why?

Because his wifes an amazing dish.

Hes terribly suspicious about her

Where will I find a wife?

- Am I not here?

Youre crazy! If I tell Popat

that youre my wife...

What rubbish! What Im saying is

that Ill find you a wife

Ill charge extra commission for that.

- Are you a milkman...

or a commission agent?

- Im an all rounder

You indeed are a fast guy

Wheres the other lady?

- Shes taking a bath

Quickly take the milk.

Ive got work to do

"Youre the one I was waiting for, Bholu.

- What is the matter?"

"Thats my friend, Anjali.

Shes looking for a room"

Low rent. Will you find one?

- There is a room. Very cheap

But only for married couples

Are you married?

- No

She doesnt know anyone in town.

But Bholu knows everyone

"Bholu, Bholu the good boy...

- Thats enough"

Will you give me a commission?

- I will

"All right, Ill find a

fake-husband for her then"

So youre thinking of

leaving your house?

Strange games God plays.

Here I am...

waiting to quit the dingy hole Im

living in and settling in a palace

And you! Youre quitting

a readymade palace

If you had a father like mine...

youd have found my palace to be

smaller than your dingy hole

But what is the problem?

- Ever since Ive finished college...

Ive been begging for money

to start a business

"Whenever I talk about money, its

as if Ive stepped on his tail!"

"This is the limit!

- You have just one way, my friend"

Change your father.

- What?

"Woo a rich girl, get married and

become the heir to her fathers riches"

Youre poking fun at me?

- Im not kidding

"Ive even scored with a girl.

Teja, the garbage kings daughter"

"Youve heard of him, havent you?

Its his only daughter. Madhuri"

The garbage kings daughter and you?

Dont forget your status

Do you even have the money to buy

her a box to collect the garbage?

"I dont, but Radhesham Tiwari"s

son can buy even the garbage king..."

not just a garbage can.

- Tiwari? Owner of Anjali Industries?

"Right. Anjali Foods, Anjali Chemicals,

Anjali Pharmaceuticals..."

and several other Anjali"s

under my fathers belt

You told her that you are

Radhesham Tiwari"s son?

"Yes. Dont lose hope, my friend"

"The more thick-skinned you are in money

matters, the better it is for you"

Harass your father so much

with your demands...

hell give you something

some day or the other

"Dad, one last time. Are you giving

me the money or arent you?"

Youve been asking me for years

and I didnt give you anything

Here you are. Start whatever

business you want to with this

10 rupees! Youre poking fun at me?

- Hear that?

My father arrived in this city

with just 10 rupees
