Lage Raho Munna Bhai Page #3

Synopsis: A hilarious underworld gangster known as Munna Bhai falls comically in love with a radio host by the name of Jahnvi, who runs an elders' home, which is taken over by an unscrupulous builder, who gets the residents kicked out ironically with the help of Munna's sidekick, Circuit, while Munna is busy romancing Jahnvi elsewhere. Munna, who is now masquerading as a Professor specializing in the life of Mahatma Gandhi, must now battle his very own forces and the builder - but he has one ally on his side - none other than the great man - Mahatma Gandhi himself. Only trouble is that Munna may have problems convincing everyone about this presence - as he is apparently is the only one who can see and hear him.

How wonderful!

- He says 'This is our last innings.

Let's play with gusto. '

- Correct!

Your Grandad sounds like a stud!

I should meet him. "

"Actually, could you give them

a lecture on Gandhi?"

A lecture on Gandhi..?

Yes. They will love it.

How about Friday?

You have college.

- Then, Saturday?

You have a tutorial!

- So Sunday.

Sunday done.

That's great! I'll see you on Sunday.

I have to rush.

My 7th kid arrives today.

Bye. See you...

- Thank you. Thank you...

Dad, I hope you understand.

This separation will be good for you

and your daughter-in-law!

Don't worry, son. I'll be fine.

I have friends here.

"You look after your wife.

She's with you for a lifetime. "

I don't have much longer...

Should I see you in?

No. I'll find my way...

Dad, dad I'm getting

very late... Ok.

Visit when you find the time.

Yeah.

I brought up 4 sons in one room.

Today, they have 4 houses.

But not one room for me.

You've been going on for 2 hours.

It's the same story. Nothing new.

Look at him... crying like a chick!

If we all cry like that,

we'll solve the country's water crisis.

Give this cranky fossil

the corner room!

How can you find this funny?

No serious talk is allowed

in 2nd Innings House!

Second Innings House?

- Look Atmaram...

the 1st innings of our lives

was spent making a living.

"Now, in our 2nd innings, either we die

complaining or find a reason to live. "

I wish to fly in a plane.

Before I die, I want to visit Lahore.

Relive old memories.

I want to become a singer.

I want to see my face on an

album cover, before I die.

Before I die, I want to marry again.

Think you could raise your racquet

at this age?

I've been practicing!

To elevate your minds, I have invited

a Professor over on Sunday.

He will lecture you on Gandhian values.

You all need it.

No tension, Bro. The Professors

will write out answer chits.

Stick them on your arms,

pockets, underwear...

In my underwear?

So I dig into my pants

to answer a question?

True. That would look weird, Bro.

How about the phone then?

Each time they question you...

...call me from the loo. I'll get

the Professors to supply answers.

They'll think

I have a super freaky bladder!

This isn't going to work.

Then, there is only one way.

Is there no other way?

Well, there's this really cute chick

in another radio station!

She yaps about Brad Pitt

all the time!

Her 'kids' are bound to be

Redford fans - we'll handle that!

Shut up! Let me think.

Bro, there's no way out.

You have 5 days to study

every detail on Bapu.

Ok. I'm off.

- Alright, Bro.

Bro, focus on your study.

I'll handle the business. No tension.

Hey, hand on!

You go on, Bro...

Hello? Anyone there?

I'm Hariram!

May I assist you in any way?

Will I find

some information on Bapu here?

What's wrong?

Been years, since we've had a visitor.

I'm delighted.

Every book on Gandhi is available here.

Feel free to read them all!

I'll get you some tea.

Hell, huge fat books!

"Wearing glasses, leaning on a stick

the old man walked tall. "

Tyrants shivered at

the very mention of his name.

"We salute you, O Motherland,

for giving us this fearless man. "

"Short he may have been,

but sprightly was his gait. "

"Lean and thin was he,

but fearless his stride. "

"We salute you, O Motherland,

for giving us this fearless man. "

Munna...

Who's that?

- Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.

Dude, I've been up 3 nights...

So don't mess with me else...!

Or else, would you do?

- Just let me study!

Or else... what? You'll hit me?

Hit me on my left cheek, and I will

offer you my right, Mr. Professor.

Who told you I was a Professor?

Your tea!

Give it to that Fancy Dress.

Tell him to be quiet.

Who?

- That Bapu wannabe!

Where?

- Right there. Can't you see him?

This place attracts all loonies.

Who are you?

- You can call me Bapu.

Hey, don't touch me!

Don't be afraid.

I've never hurt anyone!

Dude, I don't want no trouble!

Are you a ghost?

Spirit, no. Inspiration, yes.

I don't get you, Bro.

Not Bro. Bapu. Father.

I see you love Jhanvi.

Going to her house on Sunday, right?

How do you know? Hariram!

"Don't be afraid, Son.

I'm here to help. "

Hariram...!

If you are scared, I will leave.

Whenever you need me,

think about me, and I will be there.

Hariram!

What's wrong, son?"

- Who's that there?

Who's there?

'Hallucinations'?. What's that?

Extreme fatigue or

a chemical imbalance can trigger...

...imaginary voices or visions!

That's hallucinations.

But I saw him clearly.

I tell you, it was Bapu's ghost.

Then why couldn't

the "Tea-Boy" see him?

The ghost decides who sees him.

Depends on his mood.

For 3 days, you had no sleep,

no food, no water. "

Your tired mind

probably imagined Gandhi there.

Are you implying I'm going mad?

Don't worry. Take this medicine, okay?

Wait. Bapu said,

if I think of him, he would come.

Let me try.

How are you, Murli Prasad?

Don't touch me!

Don't be afraid, son.

I'm here to help you. "

Look! It's Bapu.

You can't call me mad now.

There's no one there, Mr Sharma

- But I see Bapu clearly.

It's all in your imagination.

Circuit, you see Bapu, don't you?

Hello, Bapu!

What an appearance you made last time!

Freaked brother out,

and he doesn't get freaked easily!

Hey, Circuit...

Bapu is here.

Just getting him some water, Bro.

Need anything, Bapu?

Tea, coffee, a soda?

What's this nonsense?

Don't reinforce his hallucinations. "

Hey, don't piss me off? If brother sees Bapu,

then he is real - get it?

I'll whack you so hard,

you'll see stars in the day.

That's hallucinations!

Bro, you relax here with Bapu.

I'll handle this chap.

You mental hospital.

What are you trying to do?

I know there is no Bapu.

Don't go on about it.

Brother will go nuts.

Gimme the medicine.

I'll give it to him.

Hey, Circuit!

- Yeah, Bro?

How come only you and me see Bapu?

Bro, it's your solid will power.

You brought Bapu out of the books.

Like Alladin's genie.

And since I took you to the Library,

so Bapu said hello to me too. "

"No tension Bro. Once he sees India's

dismal state,...

he'll leap back into the books.

What's troubling you, Bro?

Bapu said he was here to help me.

Lucky wants us to grab that house.

Should we send Bapu?

It's time for your pills, bro!

Murli Prasad!

Mohandas at your service.

Hey, Bapu...

Where's that bottle?

I need your help.

If you need to kidnap or whack someone,

I can't help.

I am rather weak in that department.

No, no I can manage that just fine.

Come with me to Jhanvi's house.

Like this... Invisible!

When they question me about you,

whisper the answers in my ear.

My history is rather weak.

If I do this, then you must

do something for me in return.

"I'll do anything you say, Bapu.

Just help me tomorrow. "

First listen to what I want.

Relax, Bapu.

I've given my word. I promise.

What I will ask is not easy.

There's nothing in Mumbai

that I can't do.

Consider your job done.
