Money! Money! Money

did something amazing...

...it trapped my

heart in a net.

What's love... romance...

- boom... - booty... - boom...

...it threw me

empty-handed out of life.

Leave love's collar, brother.

Let's count dollars, brother.

Forget the game of love...

Leave it! Leave it! Leave it!

Leave it! Leave it! Leave it!

Don't split my brains!

Look, our poet woke up.

I left everything...

I left everything...

I broke the heart

that gave me love.

I left my own... my dreams...

I broke my relation with joy.

I left everything...

This world is crafty...

anything can happen here.

This world is crafty...

anything can happen here.

Give up receiving...

giving... crying... loving...

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!

Excuse me, gentlemen. Is

this some kind of a joke?

No. Actually it's a robbery.

Forget it.

If we're successful today, then

at the most, you'll lose your...

...job. if we're unsuccessful,

then...

...at the least,

you'll lose your life.

So you do your work quietly

and let us do ours. Got it?

I'll translate real fast.

If we pull this one off...

if we pull this one off...

...at worst, you lose your job.

If we don't, at the best,

you'll be shot.

So why don't you

shut your mouth...

...and continue doing your

work and allow us to do ours.

Excuse me.

Everybody down!

Down!

Down!

Down! Down!

Down!

What babe?

What are you doing tonight?

We can enjoy all night,

I'll have enough

...money after looting this bank.

Hey! Put up your hands!

Put up your hands!

Out!

C'mon!

Steady! Easy!

Kill me. - This bullet

will kill you before that.

Now don't shout anymore. Ok?

Half of your life

will perish shouting!

If you've the strength to shout then

have the strength to bear the pain.

It'll burn a little. Ok?

If you had listened to me earlier...

...then you wouldn't

have had to scream now.

I won't scream!

I won't scream!

Just relax.

Major!

Major, I'm feeling very scared.

It's ok, you should feel scared.

You've been

brave all day, today.

It doesn't matter if

you feel afraid now.

I'll take you to the hospital

as soon as these people show up.

Promise me. Promise me, Major.

- Yes. I promise.

What if I die

before they show up?

We'll bury you somewhere.

Hey! Nothing will

happen to you, understood?

We've been trapped.

Hey! He's dead!

I'm still alive.

Don't worry. You'll surely die.

Shut up! Just shut up!

Nothing will

happen to you. Nothing!

Is it paining a lot?

No. It's tickling

me and I'm laughing.

It'll hurt you more

if you laugh, jackass!

Lie there quietly, you'll live.

Where are the rest?

- I don't know.

How did you come here?

- By car.

What car? - The lady

didn't tell me her name.

Which lady? - Someone over there,

but she isn't there any longer.

One among us is a traitor.

- What?

One of us is an

informer for the police.

You think one of us

is a police informer?

Don't you think so, oldie?

Hey! Mind your tongue.

Else you won't leave this place.

I'm not bothered!

Even then I'll speak.

Someone has vomited

everything to the police.

And if you don't feel so then...

...you've lost your

mind and he, his life.

Shut up! Shut up!

You had said that there

won't be much security there.

Yes, I had said that there

wasn't much security there.

Because there shouldn't

have been much security there.

Then how did my in-laws reach that

place with my wedding procession?

It's possible that someone

might have tipped off the police...

...so that they could escape

with the money at the last moment.

Yes, that's possible.

Where's the bag?

- Huh?

Bag... where's your bag?

That... it's there somewhere.

- Where?

Somewhere there...

- Where there?

Why should I tell you?

Let everyone

come then I'll tell.

Where's the bag!

Have you said anything?

- No.

How did you escape from there?

- How did you?

I asked you first.

I hit three out-laws,

one in-law...

...and escaped with his car.

I hope you don't

feel that all this...

...is my doing?

- It's possible.

It's possible in

your case as well.

It's possible. - It's possible.

Why isn't it possible?

He has died.

- He's unconscious.

No, he isn't moving. He's dead.

He's unconscious.

Let's go there and talk.

Why did I feel that he has died?

Tell me something, Major.

If the police can come there,

then it can come here as well.

So? - So what? Let

the both of us leave.

And what about him?

What about him?

- He's injured.

We're not going to leave him

like that. We'll kill him.

What are you looking at, Major?

He's of no use. He's a

burden on the earth.

He's your friend.

There aren't any friends

in business, only partners.

He was the one

who taught me that.

From the first day, till today.

Every story is about his share.

Hey! Stop! Hurry up!

Let's leave!

Who are you?

- I'm a cop.

And who's that?

- Thief.

What's in your hand?

How much do you have?

Ten. - Five each. -

Seven mine and three yours.

Five each. - Ok, truce. Six

mine and four yours. C'mon, man!

No. Five each.

- Ok done.

Let's leave! Run!

He's a rogue! A rogue!

Had I been in his place today, then

he would've said the same thing.

You both would've

killed me and left.

He got shot, his fate.

We weren't, our luck.

Shut up! Just shut up!

Anyway, that dog is

going to die in an hour.

Why don't we kill him and

escape from here? - Shut up!

Shut up!

Ok. If you don't want to come...

...then don't. I'm leaving.

Hey Bali! Bali!

You've gotten into my nerves!

Since when have I been

tolerating your nonsense!

You're sick! You're sick!

I won't be able to tolerate

your nonsense any longer...

...do you understand that?

Understand?

Now before I shoot your

brains off your skull...

...tell me where's the bag.

Where's the bag?

Great, Major!

Blow his brains off!

Even I want to see whether he's

got grass stuffed inside or hay.

You're alive. I

thought you were dead.

Were you thinking so...

or wanting so, Major?

What do you mean?

- Nothing. Nothing.

It would've been good

had anyone shot you.

You shoot me, that's

why the police spared me.

For you.

Where are Andy and Mark?

I don't know.

You're acting as if

nothing has happened.

What has happened? - He thinks

there's an informer amidst us.

What do you think, Major?

- It's possible.

I don't think so. I know.

What else do you know?

What do you mean by that?

There's someone amidst

us who's an informer.

You're the one.

- What?

You're the informer.

- Hey! Don't talk nonsense.

I'm not talking nonsense. You

informed the police, isn't it?

I've evidence to prove it.

- Hey smarty!

Don't act smart or else...

- Or else what?

I'll shoot you, mad guy!

Yes, I'm slowly going mad.

Shoot me!

- Look Ajju, I'll shoot you.

Shoot me!

- I'll shoot you!

Hey Ajju, I'll shoot you.

Hey Bali, your gun is

as empty as your head.
