What's there to worry about?

Whatever has to

happen will happen.

They've started, blowing off

their worries in a cloud of smoke.

Don't know

what'll happen, Oh God!

Andy and Mark had always done

bad things living in their country...

...maybe for that moment,

the burden on...

...their souls

had lessened a bit.

We'll reach there in

three different cars.

Mark and Ajju will

be in the first car.

And Mac and Bali

will be in the second.

And I and Andy

will be in the third.

By the time Andy and I reach, Ajju

and Mark would've done their job.

First car, second car, third car...

is someone sponsoring the cars?

Yes. You're

responsible for that. Here, take.

Hey donkey! This money hasn't

been loaned from your chicks.

Bali, use this money like your

brains... - No way!... with care.

Hey! I'm tired of eating this. Why

don't you order rice and pulses?

Hey! Shut up!

Major, will we scare the

guards by showing our fingers?

No. with guns. You,

Mark and Andy will...

...collect the guns,

today evening.

Hey! Shoot with one eye shut. -

Bali's bullets find their targets...

...by themselves, brother.

If you keep aiming like this then

you'll become a target one day.

It's easy to shoot words,

Major. Do you know to shoot? Do you?

It's loaded.

After that, no one dared

to speak against Major.

Eh Bali! Come here.

- What?

Tell me one thing, if I

keep this bomb on your head...

...then what will rip open

first? This bomb or your head?

The bomb will rip open first. No.

Actually the head can also rip open.

No, pal. This is a really

confusing question. You tell me.

Your ass will rip open first.

Ajju! - What's this? - Bomb.

I activated it. - What?

Keep sitting. Keep sitting.

Keep sitting?

Hey! Will this erupt?

You fool! It's a bomb and it's

beeping, so it's bound to erupt.

Why, man? - You're

scared sh*t! You're scared!

Hey Mark! Are you standing

there waiting for this bomb...

...to erupt!?

Deactivate it! Deactivate it!

It's can't be deactivated.

- What do you mean?

Meaning? You forgot

Hindi along with English?

Is this bomb enough to

kill this scoundrel...

...or do I keep another?

- No! It's not needed.

He'll die such a death that

he won't take birth again.

Then here, smoke

your last cigarette?

Tell me something, Mark.

- Yes. - When the bomb erupts...

Yes.

- Will his hands tear off from...

...the elbow or

from the shoulder?

He'll die!

- He'll die!? - Yes.

If I die, then I'll take

everyone else along with me.

Then who'll fulfill

your rites? My father?

Do you have any one of your own?

You beggar! Why

fear when I'm here?

I fear because the bomb is here.

Hey Mark! From today, I'll

address your girl as my sister.

You'll do so, right?

- Yes. - You'll do so? - Yes.

Then throw it. Throw

it else it'll burst.

Why?

- Throw it else it'll burst.

Hey throw it! It'll burst! -

Hey Bali! Throw it! - Hey! Hey!

Hey Andy! Take it!

Look what happened there!

Look what happened there!

You call this a bomb?

There's gas coming out of it.

Why? Are you

regretting about being alive?

Moreover, it made a chicken out

of you. Didn't it? - Yes, it did.

So, this is our plan incase

the police comes there tomorrow.

Why are you talking about

the police all the time?

You're scaring me.

Why don't you say...

...at least once that

the police won't come?

If... Bali, if... - This

'If' is a very dangerous word.

If this happens,

then this will happen.

If this doesn't happen,

then that won't happen.

If my aunt grows

moustaches then I'll call her uncle.

This is very bad.

Hey Bali! Hey Bali!

Why do you get tensed?

What are you

talking about tension?

It scares the sh*t out of me.

You're talking of tension.

Hey! Who knows about tomorrow?

Here, take. Have a cigarette.

C'mon! What'll I do about this?

Ajju's bomb helped us forget

everything for a few moments...

...and gave us an

opportunity to laugh.

How could we know

that death was...

...secretly

laughing at us as well.

We all will go in 2/2

formation. Mac and Bali first...

...and then me and Andy. Ajju

and Mark will be present...

...there already. Once

we're in, we're all strangers.

No one will talk to the other.

As soon as we go in, me and

Andy will go to the manager's...

...cabin. I'll handle the

manager and Andy, you'll manage the...

...security cameras. We'll have

only five minutes for you. Ok?

All four of you will be in

your positions. Near the alarms.

As soon as I come out wearing

a mask you all will wear yours.

And move the security guards

away from the alarm first.

...then we sink along

with our plan. Get it?

We had everything with us.

Plan, money and courage.

If we didn't have anything,

then it was just mutual trust.

Because we all had taken birth

learning one thing from our...

...mother's womb: Never trust

anyone! Not even your mother!

Which junkyard have

you brought us to, Major?

Ok everybody, cell phones.

- Why?

Neither will anyone

use their phones now...

...nor will anyone

move out of this place.

And we'll loot

the bank tomorrow.

But the plan to loot the bank

is for the day after tomorrow.

We'll loot it tomorrow.

Any problems?

Very smart, Major. I understood.

If we loot the bank tomorrow

instead of the day after...

...then none of us will be

able to make our own plans.

I'm with you.

Me, too.

I don't keep one.

Ok, one final time.

We'll discuss the plan again.

How many times do we

discuss the plan, Major?

If we discuss it once again,

then we'll forget everything.

Then what'll we do

till tomorrow morning?

What'll we do? We'll

drink and make merry!

I'll arrange for a

couple of babes.

Hey! Keep it.

- No? - No.

Hey listen! The plan. The

plan is a watch. Swiss watch.

The parts of the watch,

that's us. If we're perfect...

...then the watch

is also perfect.

Tick-tock! Tick-tock!

Otherwise, it'll turn into...

...a bomb and we'll go...

boom... understood?

Yes, so what was I saying?

The plan. Once more, the plan.

I'm sick, I'm tired.

Whatever you've said...

...has stuck to my brains,

brother.

Leave it! Leave it! Leave it!

Leave it! Leave it! Leave it!

Leave it! Leave it! Leave it!

Don't split my brains!

Hey brother! Big daddy,

don't twist my brains.

Leave it! Leave it! Leave it!

Don't split my brains!

Hey! Hey!

Hey! Hey!

There's a bank, within

the bank, there's a safe...

...in the safe, there's booty

and on the booty are our eyes.

Bank... boom... safe... boom...

booty... boom...

We're rich now, we

don't have any worries.

You'll forget getting panicky,

tomorrow, we'll have so much money.

Leave it! Leave it! Leave it!

Planning has become too boring.

Open the bottle and pour

the liqueur. Understood?

Leave it! Leave it! Leave it!

Don't split my brains!

Hey brother! Big daddy,

don't twist my brains.

Leave it! Leave it! Leave it!

Don't split my brains!

Hey brother, we're

tired so we're sitting...

Aren't you tired of sitting?

C'mon! C'mon! Talk!
