Synopsis: The compassionate widower Raja of Anjangadh, Shoorveer Singh, who knows the location of immense wealth belonging to his kingdom, is betrayed by his brother, Digambar Singh, and killed. His young son is separated from him, while his loyal employee, Mangal Singh, is not only tortured but also loses his right arm at the hands of Daku Lakhan Singh, an associate of Digambar, and his son is allegedly killed. Years later, Shoorveer and Mangal's sons re-surface as Shankar and Sanga respectively, and join forces with Danny D'Souza, who is on the lookout for the male who killed his wife, Monica. The trio will soon be pitted against Lakhan, who is now known as Suryapratap Singh; his son, Ranjeet; an army of goons; including a seven-foot giant, Django D'Costa, who has teeth made of iron. Things become complicated when they find out that Sanga is in love with Suryapratap's daughter, Asha.

- Allah! What are you saying?

Doesn't take long for a man

to gets wrong notions

Do not suspect my notions.

Talk about the padre, that bastard

Goodness! Why curse someone?

If you won't have a padre...

let's call in a marriage registrar.

- What for?

Our wedding.

- Wedding?

Let's get married. I'll convert

to a Hindu, for your sake

Who told you I'm willing?

Your heart tells me.

I know, you love me

Wrong!

- Absolutely wrong

Absolutely true

"What's this maze?"

"Of all the cities

I've heard of..."

"Calcutta...

- The city of mazes"

"I've lost my way.

- I'm lost"

"In my own country,

I feel like an alien here"

"Here's where word and deed

mean exactly opposite"

"Chowringhee is a marketplace,

bereft of colour"

"Look, there's rickshawallah

running like a horse"

"Between the holy Ganges and riots...

- Looms the monstrous Howrah bridge"

"You understand anything?"

"Of all the cities

I've heard of..."

"Calcutta...

- The city of mazes"

"I've lost my way.

- I'm lost"

"In my own country,

I feel like an alien here"

"Like Mathura and Kasi,

the land of Krsna..."

"this is land

of Netaji and Tagore"

"Learn how to live together

enjoy life"

"Our country is one,

speak whatever language you will"

"You understand anything?"

"Of all the cities

I've heard of..."

"Calcutta...

- The city of mazes"

"I've lost my way,

I'm lost"

"In my own country,

I feel like an alien here"

"There's Shyambazar,

but there's no Shyam"

"Nor did I see Radha

in Radhabazar"

"No tiles in Tollygunj,

no sand in Ballygunj"

"But in Kalighat,

is the shrine of goddess Kali"

"Glory to Goddess Kali"

I was away in Delhi, but the rest of

the police force wasn't away in Delhi

Why did you run around? Nabbing

criminals is the job of the police

Not your job.

The ballistics report

in the Lily murder case

Shot by a revolver

with a silencer

A 32 bore revolver

It must be the handiwork of the padre

who tired to get us killed

Asha, are you all right?

- Yes Daddy

I wonder whether anyone needs

a bail bond. That's why I came

Not at all, Thakur saheb.

If a contingency arises, I'm here

Any clues about the assassin?

- Not yet

Sir, we have a clue.

This cigarette

The killer rolls his cigarettes

I'm certain

Just about anyone

could roll his cigarettes

Had Danny seen him once, by now the

killer would've been in police custody

Yes, Danny has a photographic memory.

- Really?

Will you please stand up?

Why? What is the matter?

The same features, the same face,

the same height

What do you mean?

- The padre I've been talking about...

is just like him!

I mean, a duplicate

Yes, put him in a cassock and a beard,

he'll look like the padre

Danny! You mustn't speak like this

None of your fault. Actually,

you are so obsessed with murder...

someday you might think

you yourself are an assassin

And that day, I will have to resign.

- May I take Asha along?

Seema, I'm buying Sunday cinema tickets

for all of us

No Asha. Don't buy a ticket for Shankar.

- Why?

I forgot to tell you.

Shankar is going to Delhi tomorrow

Delhi?

- It's about the crown you saved

The Indian Heritage Committee

is giving you an award

And a cash prize of 100,000 Rupees

Here's your air ticket. You're on

flight 173. Ten a. M tomorrow

Hello Thakur saheb.

Car broke down?

Isn't he the one?

- He's the one

Let's take an autograph

Going to Delhi?

- Yes

Won't you give me an autograph?

What's the matter with you?

Something's wrong with him

Go back to your seats

What happened to him?

- I don't know, he's sweating

Is there a doctor

on this flight?

Please take a look at him

He shouldn't be flying

I can give him a check-up

at my hospital in Ramnagar

I'll organise his trip to Delhi

after I've given him a check-up

That's, if you don't mind.

- You're the best judge

Send a wireless message.

Get an ambulance at the airport

Who is it?

So you laced my orange juice?

- Yes

To help you sleep easy for a while

If you don't want to die...

you will hand that locket to me.

- Certainly not. It has been with me...

ever since I was a child. It's the

mark that identifies me to my family

Give me the locket

No one touches it

Thief

I'm no thief!

- You robbed the crown

Now you're back?

- No, I was only...

This belongs to the Prince.

And someday he will return

Until then, I will protect

this property

Get out of here

If you set foot inside this palace

ever again, I'll hack you to pieces

Robber... rogue

Take care of him.

- Sure

A falcon snatched my handgun.

I'm going to look for it

Shamsher? Where did you find gun?

I see. The robber tried to kill you?

I won't spare him

Prince

My prince

You see how happy Shamsher is?

Because it's your birthday

This is my gift to you

To the Prince...

- Victory be

To the Maharaja...

- Victory be

Shamsher...

Where did you find that locket?

- I've worn it ever since I was a baby

Where it came from,

only my Daddy can tell you

Yes son?

Why did you call me here?

Everyone thinks I'm the prince

because I'm wearing this locket

Yes, that's the locket I was trying

to save from Lakhan Singh

So I gave it to the Prince

My sacrifices have borne fruit,

Lakhan Singh

A piece of paper?

No, that's the map to the

royal treasures in Anjangarh

The route of to the treasure

from the lake-shore

And where's the lake?

- I know the way. I'll take you there

Can you tell us how your son

came to possess this locket?

Tell me

Why don't you say anything, Daddy?

Am I not your son?

Tell us the truth. Tell us

he isn't your son

Tell us, he's the prince,

the heir to the royal lineage

No Daddy! Tell me, it's a lie!

I'm your son

Why are you silent?

The truth is... Ranjit isn't my son

I found him lying in the jungles

Hear that? Didn't I tell you?

He's the prince! My prince

Truly, he must be royalty.

Ever since he entered my family...

my business has grown

by leaps and bounds

Even my wife conceived

Before she died,

my wife swore me to secrecy

Till this day, Asha doesn't know

that Ranjit isn't her brother

But no promises hold

before destiny's writ

You have my word. My son will marry

your daughter, Seema

No! I'm never going to marry him.

I belong to Shankar, I will always

I'll even wait for him

a whole lifetime

In our age, I don't think we can

force our children into a marriage

And we mustn't

My child...

- Forgive me

I was accompanying the children.

Your friend was signing autographs

Suddenly, he fainted. A doctor attended

to him. He was a bearded man

He took him away in an ambulance

at Ramnagar airport

And yes, he rolled his cigarettes

He rolled his cigarettes

...he used his hands?

I know nothing more

I hope you find your friend soon.

I shall pray to God

Where have you been?

- How have you guys been?

What happened?

- For the first time, I missed

Shankar walked in and he saved them!

- What nonsense! Shankar is dead

I think they followed me here

Between the three of them

is it a friendship unto death?
