Lage Raho Munna Bhai Page #4

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.

Good. Then I shall leave.

Think of me tomorrow.

I will be there.

Hey, Circuit.

- Got it!

I'm gonna rock!

The oldies can question me on history.

I'll have History by my side.

Cheers!

Thank you. Thank you.

Professor, I have a question.

- Just a minute.

Before we start the questions,

let us remember Bapu.

Bapu! You 're here! Thank you.

Help me, okay?

Alright everyone, enough singing.

Enough.

Let's have your questions.

Fire away.

Son, I saw a boy chucking stones

at Gandhi's statue. He broke the arm...

...and stood there laughing.

What should I have done?"

Quite simple. Drag the rascal to

the statue and give him a...

and give him a stone and tell him

to topple the statue.

What you saying, Bapu?

- Repeat what I say.

Are you sure?

You should've told him

to strike down the statue.

Bring down all my statues

in the country.

Bring down every Gandhi statue

in the country.

Remove my pictures from every wall.

Remove Gandhi's photos from the walls.

Erase my name from buildings,

roads, currency.

Remove his name from buildings,

roads, notes.

If you must, keep me in your heart.

If you must honour Bapu,

then keep him in your heart.

Here in your heart.

He's done so much for us.

Been jailed, fasted,

even took 3 bullets.

Here.

And what have we done for him?

Reduced him to a wall hanging.

A mute witness to our corruption.

He dreamt of a 'fantastic' India,

but we've ruined the country.

No, Son, its not that bad.

We have progressed.

Progress, my foot!

We have taps, but no water.

Bulbs, but no electricity.

Craters on roads,

hawkers on sidewalks.

Make a train reservation,

get wait-listed.

Get a confirmation,

the train is cancelled.

Go to a hospital, no bed.

Get a bed, no doctor.

Who do you complain to?

The politician sends you to the clerk.

The clerk's always in a meeting.

Call him at home, he's in the bath.

Finally get through, he wants

your application in duplicate.

Then the application goes

round and round and round...

...If Bapu were here around today,

he'd say,...

'We won our freedom,

but lost our people'.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

"Professor...

come here. "

You love her, don't you?

What?

- I can see it in your eyes!

You see what?

- Looking London, but talking Tokyo!

You speak to us, but gaze at her!

I have a problem with my eyes.

Oh! So you 're shy... like me!

What do you mean?

This is Tina.

My college sweetheart.

Wanted to marry her

but my father refused.

So I married Feroza.

Now after 50 years, I met Tina again.

She is a widow.

...I'm a widower!

so marry her, dude!

- But my kids say,...

Don't embarrass us, dad'. First

my father objected, now my children.

So I left home

and came here to live my own life!

What's the problem now?

- How do I tell Tina 'I love you '?

Does she 'I love you' too?

I think so!

Look, it was taken 50 years ago!

Hey, this is the same car.

Yes. That day, it rained heavily.

Tina and I were in the backseat.

I kissed her. She ran off embarrassed.

Anytime you want to use the car,

feel free.

Isn't this is a lovely car, Murli?

We've called it the 'Kissing Car'.

Want to know why?

Why don't you two go for a drive?

"Wassup, Bro...?"

"Your smile's wider than the Ganges"

"Wassup, Bro...?"

"C'mon, Bro... "

"C'mon... "

"C'mon, Bro... "

"C'mon... "

"You gotta tell me, man!"

"C'mon...

- Get the cards printed. "

"C'mon, Bro... "

"Wha...?

- Where's my Tuxedo?"

"The deal's done!"

"I said, the... deal... is... done!"

"The deal's done!"

"Start at the beginning, Bro!"

"From the top!

So where did you go?"

"The question is not 'where',... "

"it's 'how'... "

"How, Bro?

- In the Kissing Car, dude!"

"Ok, I've heard of side-car,... Nascar...

... Madagascar... even Oscar!"

"What the heck is a Kissing Car?"

"One in which you kiss, moron!"

"So I found... "

...a Kissing Car... "

"... and we melted like candy bars!"

"But Bro, didn't the driver peep?"

"A 100 rupee bill made him crawl... "

"... promptly heard the nature's call!"

"You're a genius!"

"Go on...?"

"A kiss here,... "

"... a cuddle there. "

"She said, 'Munna, you 're my teddy bear!"

"Really, Bro?"

"It's signed, sealed, delivered, buddy boy!"

"It's signed, sealed, delivered, buddy boy!"

"So then where'd you go?"

"The movies?

- No, dude!"

"Chinese food!

- Nope,... "

"to the Circus!

- Why?"

"To pay the lion a visit, dude!

- Huh?"

"The ring master thanked me for the money... "

"... cracked the whip on the lion's fanny... "

"What happened then, Bro?"

"The lion's roar... "

"... got me a hug so good... "

"I said to Leo, "Once more, dude?"

"Awesome! You called him 'dude'?"

"Her hug was so damn electric... "

"Circuit, my heart went ballistic!"

"Really, Bro?"

"It's signed, sealed, delivered, dude!"

"It's signed, sealed, delivered, dude!"

"Hey, Circuit!"

"The deal's done!"

"Did it really happen, Bro?

- Yup!"

Freaky! Any song I sing,

Bapu arrives.

You are singing a love song, while

Jhanvi has fallen in love with someone else.

Who?

- An intellectual, honest man!

"Who is he, Bapu?"

A professor...

What's his name?

I'll whack the daylights...

Professor Murli Prasad Sharma.

Hey Bapu. Teasing me, are you?

No Son, it's true.

She loves the Professor

you pretend to be. Not you.

Tell her the truth tomorrow.

If you keep lying,

she will leave you one day.

"If I tell her the truth,

she will leave me tomorrow!

You promised you would do

one job for me?

Give me any other job, Bapu.

I can't do this.

This is all I want.

Live truthfully.

Circuit, take Bapu home.

Okay Bapu, let's go.

This is Mumbai city.

Must not roam alone at night.

Hey Circuit!

- Yeah, Bro!

Why are you looking that way?

Bapu is here.

Speak the truth and

live with pride, son.

Bapu, don't wander around.

The last train's gone.

Now we'll have to take a cab.

Circuit, you 're drunk.

Hold Bapu's hand and take him home.

Can't see the man,

how will I see his hand.

Found him! Off we go!

Bapu, don't wander at night.

Not good for health.

Get dark circles under the eyes.

Come sit.

Okay! Bye-bye.

Drop him off, please.

Whom should I drop?

- How the heck should I know?

Your chosen path will

show you suffering, son.

You'll need me some day.

Till then, good bye.

Hello!

- 'Hello... '

Jhanvi?

- Hi, Murli! Are you at the college?

Yes. I'm giving a lecture.

Guess what! I'm in your college.

Why?

- To meet the Principal.

Why?

Come over. I'll tell you.

- I'll come.

But don't meet the Principal.

- Why?

I'll finish my lecture and

see you at the cafeteria!

Ok, relax! I'll wait here for you!

Circuit, we have an emergency!

Eh! Let me carry that.

Hello Jhanvi.

- Hi Murli...

Ok, the Principal is

slimmer than a leech!

He's also a crazy amnesiac...

He looked at me once and asked,

'Who are you?'

Relax, don't get so excited.

Excuse me...

- Hang on, I'm busy!

Rascal. Skipping classes again?

Come in, right now.

Who's that?

Our Geography Professor.

Who's he?
