have been feeding for five months.

This one time the food got

late and you start shouting!

And this place you live in,

doesn't this require expenses?

So don't keep us here. Get us out.

That's what was planned.

But our luck ran out.

The checking got strict that is why

we had to detain you here for so long.

But it is nothing to be sad

about. We leave tomorrow morning.

You have said the same

thing three time before.

But this time it is final. Listen

everyone, tonight is the last night here.

This is what i came to announce

but all of you just attacked me.

- Professor bannerji chatterji.

- Probheer chatterji.

Nice name.

You just make them

look presentable first.

They should look like educated tourists.

There is nothing to be afraid of.

You all have ten days visa

remaining. You can go anywhere.

Eat whatever you like. Enjoy yourselves.

Compensate for the last five months.

Dada, tell me one thing.

Dada, you don't seem so old to be called

dada by an old geyser like banwari.

Oh, this dada is not that kind of dada.

In our area, elder brother is called dada.

Then elder sisters must be called dadi.

That is why mr. Makhan

singh calls you desi.

Enough, enough!

Will you undress and dive in it now?

God! What a creature!

He is going to england all the

way from pakistan just to exorcise!

And look at his attire. He looks more like

a parrot than a human in green clothes.

- Have some shame.

- He will die of hunger if he does that.

We all have to die someday, baba.

Die of shame!

This is how the cow looks when

you play a flute before her.

You were given money

for what? To buy drinks?

For five months, we couldn't

even breathe without permission.

Today i want to live

freely like these white men.

You are right, chaudhry.

Today i will be free too.

You drank my wine!

So buy another one.

You will always remain a desi.

I don't have any money for more.

- Skinny won!

- And he will get a handsome amount too.

Hey skinny!

Just wait. Your dad is coming!

Dada, you take care of the panjiri.

Aman?

Go from here.

Come on, fight with me.

Come on!

Aman.

What happened, darling?

What? Any problem?

- There is a problem.

- What?

There are some of our indians...

that problem is nothing darling, but one

of our great problems has been solved.

That is why we have to leave

for rostok in the evening.

Come, lets celebrate it together.

That is fine but these

indians... let me...

but remember we have to

leave today, okay? Come fast.

By the way madam, do you know you

look stunning in this shalwar kameez?

Bye. Love you. Love you aman.

You stupid man! What are

you doing here? Go sit.

Nawab khan, didn't you listen?

It's a long trip. Go and sit.

What sit? You have been sitting

us down for the last five months!

You charged me airfare and use a truck!

I swear donkeys in my village

can run faster than this!

Sardarji, just look at its condition!

At least it is better than ours.

- He is right.

- I am worried too.

Why, rasheed, this truck

can go straight to england?

Yes, your highness.

Somebody do something about this guy.

He wasn't even fit to leave his village

and they sent him straight to moscow!

Brother, we are going to ukraine's

capital kiev, not england.

- Key?

- Yeah, key.

The key to england.

Is there some kind of door outside

england for which there is a key?

Oh just keep quiet.

- But they key...

- just shut up. You talk so much!

I was looking at our future.

Somebody put a leash on him!

- Have we reached england?

- Yes.

Prince charles has come

to receive us. Look.

This is our rasheed

chaudhry, not who you said.

Who else did you want?

Come on, get down.

Lets see how england looks like.

England looks like this? How can it be?

Oh shut up!

Everybody listen up. You have to

enter the jungle on foot from here.

And you have to cross the border

and enter ukraine before morning.

- On foot?

Yes. It will be cold ahead.

So wear as much clothing

you can right now.

- Right now?

- Yes, right now.

Because the route ahead is so

bad you can't carry your luggage.

I take responsibility of your

luggage. I'll see you ahead.

Listen. You have five minutes. Hurry up.

He has made us don so many clothes

as if we are going to the moon.

Hey, you people don't

know the onion's story?

- What onion, man?

- Onion!

Poor thing was like garlic clove.

It too went to england

once just like us.

Rasheed peeled it so much that

it finally became an onion.

Does your uncle have a

bungalow in the jungle?

Yes he does. But not here. In assam.

Move, move, move. It's

just a little water.

This old man can make it, why can't you?

Come on, move.

I can't walk anymore.

- I am tired.

- What?

Move. Dada, this stupid cannot

understand what you are saying.

You just keep a hand

on my shoulder and walk.

This jungle and it's fog!

What is a man supposed to do?

Don't panic. The fog will lift soon.

So many people have gone to england but

no one told me it would be this hard.

Snake!

Dada!

Dada!

Dada, sit over there.

Be careful. Dada, are you alright?

If i could walk this much, why would have

been my visa rejected on health basis?

Don't worry, dada. Just rest.

We will continue after that

no, no more. I can die

but i cannot walk anymore.

Dada, not like this!

Prem!

What happened to prem? Prem!

Son! What happened?

Stop! Stop!

Stop! Prem! Nothing will happen

to you! Nothing will happen to you!

- Stop!

- Pull him towards you slowly.

Be careful!

Move! Let me see what

happened to the child!

Rasheed bhai do something!

Rasheed bhai get a doctor!

Prem! Son!

Rasheed! You killed him! You swine!

- Shoot!

- I gave him an easy death.

Otherwise he would have died in agony.

There is no city or doctor for miles.

- Banwari, he is right.

- Of course.

Does anyone kill any innocent like this?

I couldn't bear the child's

pain so i killed him.

- I have been robbed!

- Banwari!

- No, banwari.

- I am destroyed!

Prem! Prem!

My son!

I was supposed to go

first! Why did he go?

How will i face his mother?

What will i tell my brother?

We had set off to earn money

but ended up losing everything!

Did i bring him up just

to see this damn day?

Prem!

We have entered ukraine.

Come on. Be strong.

Come on, come on.

Come on, come on.

Make it fast. Hurry up.

No one can stop the departing.

Have courage, banwari.

By the way, banwari, don't you think

we needlessly praise the english?

- Such superb land but full of grass!

- Totally correct, mr. Santok.

If it was in our hands, it would have

been glistering with gold like our punjab.

You are right, gurtej.

Our punjab is beyond words.

If someone sees the fire,

all of you will get caught.

There has been man check. Five

people like you have been arrested.

Two of them are ours.

Now we will have to

change our route ahead.

Tomorrow morning we

will go back to russia

from where everyone will be

transported to malta in a streamer.
