So...

But...

...I cant do anything alone

It's our Dharavi

We must develop it together!

When Dharavi was a garbage dump

nobody worried about us

We are now the

centre of the city, right?

Everyones eyeing us now

- Rightly said

Govt. is backing them too

We have to be careful

If we stand together

nobody can do anything

-'Salaam'. 'Salaam'

- Sure Bawa. One tight slap!

- Yes Kaala

- We must!

Electricity Board, I tell you!

- Sister, good tea. See you

- Thanks, Anna

Bawa!

A new group has joined hands

with Arise Movement, you heard?

For every new building in Dharavi...

...Perumalsamy gets two flats free

Like a bribe

These people are

unaware of it

Why cant they consult us?

- Havent you slept Bhavani?

- Not yet, Anna

Nobody's here, Bawa

Ya!

- Bawa...Bawa...!

- SSSHHH

'What's your name?'

- 'Tell her your name'

- 'Say it, dear'

- 'Come on, say your name'

- 'No, I won't'

'Say it'

BBBAAAH!

My darling!

My dearest!

Bawa, She gave us a shock!

Zareena!

You are the

Madam from Africa, is it!

How are you?

All good?

I am good, Anna

Karikaala!

'Fantastic!'

Only Zareena has the guts

to call you by your name

Even my sister doesn't!

'Am I right Akka?'

W-W-When did you come?

Did you e-e-eat anything?

- Are...you good?

- Why? What happened?

Is your mouth

typing a telegram?

'Calm down! Relax!'

'My Akka is making amends!'

Coffee or tea?

COFFEE, COFFEE!

She drinks...

'Coffee, it seems

You havent forgotten?!'

Rajappa!

Akka!

Come in

Get up from here

You too

- Ok Akka

Hey, Akka is creating

a space for my Bawa!

Get in all of you

- Move

- Are you all here?

Go clean the jeep, go

Akka, give me a coffee too

'Bawa, You carry on'

Hey, Kiddos! Stop peeping

Get in

Bawa is struggling to talk

Staring at him!

(clears throat)

So nice Karikaala

It is so nice to see you

It's been so many years and...

You look...you look well

Wow!

You can talk so much, is it?

It has taken me so many years

to know this

So...

How are you, then?

Are you going to be here from now?

Why?

You want to send me back?

I am going to be here

I am going to work here

I need to meet builders

regarding the tender

I need your help

I will stand by anything

that is good

Lenin works with you, right?

Lenin

Lenin is very supportive

You have brought him up well

Very activeBold

Just like you!

My Darling

My Dearest

What is it...

...your eyes recite?

Can there be rains

Without dark clouds here!

Can there be wounds

Time wouldn't heal!

- Thanks

- I have put less sugar

Why less?

Add more...

No!

'Sugarless coffee is all you will get'

Could have putsugar...

'Even after 30 years, he remembers'

This coffee is very nice

S...Sorry!

Coffee is good

No, No, No, No

I know Englees!

- Thanks

- 'Nice'

'No mention'

- Akka. Come here

- Ya!

Joking unaware of the situation

What is it?

What?

Ex- lovers have met

They will have so much to talk

Why are you a hindrance?

One slap

your head will turn

Charumathi!

Ey, Bharathi!

Look, she is calling

She only responds

if you call her 'Bharathi'

- Wait. Eat something

- No. No

My daughter is waiting

- Some other day

- Alright

See you all

'Come often, Bawa will like it

Bye, Karikaala

See you

'Lenin!'

Akka!

How do they drink this?

Why do you drink it then?

Those days

'this land was filled with

sludge and wild grass'

'When our people came here

for jobs, with their kith and kin'

'Veerayyan would

help them make huts'

'He was the centre of everything'

'Huts with 4 logs and a tarpaulin'

'Then half built walls and tin roofs'

'We owe our life here, today...'

'...to your grandpa Veerayyan'

'Every time...'

'...we tried to set up a place

there were so many problems'

'This Hari...'

'...big leader...my foot!'

'He was a nobody

compared to Veerayyan'

'Hari was supported by the ruling party'

They waited till we

took a space, readied it and built houses

Then they would come to...

...chase our people away

Brave Veerayyan!

He would not allow it

'Youngsters from the make-shift dorms

backed him'

'Hands that toiled in farms

Won't they know to take up arms?'

'Hari Daada couldnt do anything here'

'Veerayyan ruled over Dharavi like that'

Hari couldnt take it

Suddenly...

...Indira Gandhi declared Emergency

'Hari used the situation

and entered Dharavi with the police'

'To protect themselves

Veerayyan and Kaala...'

'...jumped into

Pathamadai Ayubs house'

'There was no electricity back then'

It was pitch-black

Zareena came with a chimney lamp

and stood in front of Kaala

Wow! Just wow!

Bawa was swept away

Uncle's heart must have

skipped a beat, right?

Absolutely. Absolutely!

'Akka. Look!'

They had just started

SIWS Junior College

My College...

the water pump

at the coconut tree chawl...

at the toilet near the temple...

...Aurora theatre

I didn't miss out

on a single place

I followed her

like a madman

The news about our love

spread like wildfire

We never expected that...

his relatives and my relatives...

...would accept

our relationship so soon

A life with my favorite person...

...was starting and I was excited about it

Thinking about it

makes me happy still!

But

In his desperation

to take over Dharavi...

this Hari Daada...

...was trying to finish

off Veerayyan somehow

He used Kaalas wedding

as an opportunity

They killed anyone

who came their way

Our people didnt know what to do

Hari Daada slaughtered Veerayyan

in front of Kaalas eyes

The wedding stage was blazing

That day, that fire...

separated Kaala and Zareena forever

Our dreams went up in flames

To get to know

that Karikaaladu was fine...

...took me so many years

Fearing the riots,

my grandparents...

...took me to Nasik

At that age I couldnt

decide what to do

A Pastor sent me

to the US to study

Showing riots as a reason

they banished Kaala

Almost like an exile

We didnt know where

Kaala was so lost

with no information on Zareena

We couldn't find out

about her at all

He started growing the beard

Hasnt taken it since

'I got married unaware of all this'

Hindi sad songs, all the time

Between you and me

It would go on and on

Will I be quiet?

I would even the score

with an "Ilayaraja" song

Zareena!

He would call in a hurry

Then he will salvage it somehow

I used to curse my fate

Doesn't dad love you?

Go ask Kaala that!

He is a nobody

without this Swarna

'Aunty!'

I think Uncle is smitten by Zareena

Why wouldnt he!

Doesnt she look like "Madhuri Dixit"?

'Hey! My Akka is the best'

Come in, Zareena

No. I got some work

Lenin?!

Lenin?

Let me call him

Hey Lenin!

Where is he?

Hey, LENIN!

- Pa?

- Uncle?

- Wh..wh...where is he?

- What happened Uncle?

- WHERE?

- Up there

There!

Where the hell did he disappear?

- Hey! Come soon

- What happened?

- Zareena is waiting

- Who?!

Zareena is waiting!

Quick. Go

'Hello, Madam'

What is happening?

- 'Were you busy?'

'I was getting ready'

What's all this ruckus?

'Looks like it will rain'
