That guinea

bastard was touching her.

Stop! Stop!

I need this bastard as

well as many such bastards.

Otherwise will I drink all

the whisky in this club myself?

I need customers! Stop! Stop!

Do you know the

job of a bouncer?

He's supposed to keep the

customers away from the girls.

Not break their bones. Do you

understand that? You're fired!

Shut up, Cyrus! - You're fired!

Throw him out! - F*** you, Cyrus!

It's alright! It's ok! It's

alright! This is the best club.

C'mon, guys! Have a great time!

Three hours ago, a truck full

of lockup disappeared from...

...highway thirteen. We have a

feeling you could tell us about it.

What are you talking about?

I've been working here for

the past six hours, damn it.

Ask him. - Why are you lying?

He's lying. He wasn't here.

He's lying. He wasn't here.

Goodbye! Goodbye!

Excuse me! I'm

here to see Mr. Adler.

I'm afraid he

hasn't come in yet.

I'm here to see Mr. Rubric.

- Mr. Rubric, you've a visitor.

Down the hall.

Ma'am! - Sir, I'm sorry Mr.

Adler is in a meeting.

Perhaps you would like

to try again next week.

O Mr. Adler! Sir, I

won't take much of your time.

I won, t beat around the bush.

We can't do business with you.

Your background is so...

Look, Mr. Adler,

I'll explain to you.

The board won't listen to me.

I really cannot convince them.

I'm very sorry. - Sir!

Excuse me! Mr. Adler! Sir!

Mr. Adler, see. I've

given up all those things.

I've started life anew. In

the past ten months of my new...

...life I've developed

this new business plan.

I can bet on anything that

your board won't ignore this...

...business plan. According

to this plan, listen to me...

...7% of the market, packaged

Indian food, will be in your...

...pocket in the first quarter.

I have the capability to work hard.

I've courage... the nerve... I

just need your support and faith.

Ok, your idea is interesting.

Why don't you meet me...

...at my office

tomorrow morning at 9am.

Ok. I'll...

- Time to go, Major. Let's go.

Is anything wrong, officer?

- When was it ever right?

Let's go, Major.

- But...

Hey! McGuire wants to see you.

- Why me?

You can ask him yourself

at the station. Let's go.

Hey you, Blondie. You're next.

As far as me and

Bali were concerned...

...all our stories

had three facets to it.

One was mine, the other his

and the third was the truth!

Hey guys! Did Bali

tell you how we came here?

For the sake of Biryani.

He came home early morning...

...saying that his uncle was

making Biryani at his place.

Forget home-made Biryani, his

uncle fed us burgers instead.

That too from MacDonald's.

As soon as we came out, we met

McGuire and we are here now.

Are you getting bored?

After that...

You, sir, let it be.

Are you going to tell

me where the truck is?

What truck are you talking

about, man? - The truck you stole.

Stole!? Do I look

like a thief to you?

Yes, you do. - Tell him! I

had been there to meet Rosy.

She stays on the twelfth floor.

Rosy! Tell him.

You tell him.

I went to meet Rosy.

Big b*obs Rosy.

My girlfriend. Big b*obs Rosy.

What was I going to do taking

the truck to the twelfth floor?

How do I take the truck to

the twelfth floor? You tell me.

Major! Tell me about the truck?

What the hell are you guys

talking about? What did I do?

I was just doing

my work quietly.

That's what, Major. You are

always doing your job quietly.

But we aren't going

to sit here quietly.

Major, this time we're going to

make sure that you've a very...

...long appointment with the law.

Yeah, right.

- You bet.

Major, why do I feel that

you've a secret to share?

Would you like to listen?

- Sure. Why not?

By calling me here, you people

have committed a grave mistake.

Really?

- A very grave mistake.

Now apologize for your

mistake and tell me...

When do I get to go?

When we find the truck.

- And when will you find it?

When you tell us about it.

You are asking the wrong person.

Really? Then

who's the right guy?

When love

transcends all limits...

When life becomes restless...

Don't love so much that

lust goes into your mind...

The ocean of love!

The ocean of love!

Give me my companion, I'll

pray a million times for you.

Give me my companion, I'll

pray a million times for you.

Without seeing my beloved...

I'm not able to

understand anything...

My eyes will tell

you all about love.

The ocean of love

is within my heart.

Give me my companion, I'll

pray a million times for you.

Without seeing my beloved...

I'm not able to

understand anything...

No one is unfaithful...

is bad at heart...

By luck, crazy lovers

don't always have bad times.

The heart is torn to shreds

when the dagger of time is pierced.

The ocean of love

is within my heart.

Give me my companion, I'll

pray a million times for you.

You also fall in love

with the unfaithful.

You also fall in love

with the unfaithful.

Whoever maybe your companion,

but you do have one.

The ocean of love.

I've to love you...

I've to wait for you.

I've to love you...

I've to wait for you.

Living for me, is

to die in your love.

Till when will you be on the

run, making me wait for you?

The ocean of love

is within my heart.

Give me my companion, I'll

pray a million times for you.

Without seeing my beloved...

I'm not able to

understand anything...

The ocean of love

is within my heart.

The ocean of love

is within my heart.

Where were you at 6am?

Hey a**hole, I

asked you a question!

No English. Tell him

that I don't know English.

He doesn't know

the language, sir.

Then you tell him what

I ask him. - Oh I will.

Where were you at 6am?

- Where were you at 6am?

I was with his wife.

- What is he saying?

He said he was in a bar, sir.

Well, what was he doing?

- What were you doing?

I was banging.

- He was drinking, sir.

With whom? - With whom?

- His wife. - Friends.

Where's the truck?

- Where's the truck?

I forgot it outside his house.

Sir, obviously this man doesn't

know anything about any truck.

Does he want us to get nasty? -

Hey hero, don't take uncle Sam...

...to be your uncle. Answer

fast. He's getting angry.

Tell him to get angry at his wife,

she also put in the same effort.

Look sir, this man obviously

doesn't know about anything.

Well then who does? - Then

who knows? - His wife knows.

Your wife. - What? - No. My

mistake. He said, 'his man,.

His man. - How does he know?

- And how does he know?

Because he was banging her too.

Give me a moment, will you, sir?

Look, foreigner! Don't act

like the mafia, wearing a trench coat.

This is regarding my job.

Answer the questions.

What the hell are you talking about?

- He's just wasting our time.

He's bull-shitting us.

He's playing with us.

They kept asking all night

and Ajju kept answering...

...that he was with

that cop's wife.

After sometime, even that

officer started believing that...

...Ajju truly was

with McGuires wife.

Did you listen? Hey a**hole!
