Lage Raho Munna Bhai Page #9

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 will this

little letter enclose...

what your whole heart

aches to disclose.

Oye, rockiing!

Security. Send Munna up!

Oh ho, well played Munna.

In one ball, all oldies out.

The apartment, car, driver...

consider your life is set!

Why don't you also get married,

these flowers won't get wasted!

You got it wrong, Lucky.

I've told Jhanvi the truth.

My conscience is clean.

I'm not afraid of you anymore.

You 're a strange character.

I was winding upto pitch, and you

struck yourself out!

The game's not over, Lucky!

I'll protest peacefully

till you return the house.

All alone?

Your team's vanished, buddy.

I still have one mighty player.

Your best move can't get him out!

Who?

- Bapu.

Who's that?

- The Father of the nation.

Mahatma Gandhi.

Why are you obsessed with Bapu?

His ways don't work today...

...Just as they didn't then.

3 bullets got him. Remember?

But who really won?

The one who fired the bullet,

or the one who took it in the chest?

Correct!

In whose honor do we have the dry day?

Correct!

Whose statue is in the park?

Correct!

Whose face is on currency notes?

Who the hell are you talking to?

Lucky, I'm gonna share

a secret with you.

I see Mahatma Gandhi.

You mean his...?

- He's right next to you...

looking at you so lovingly!

Who...?

- Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.

Heard that?

- No...

Bapu, once more.

- Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.

Heard it now?

Dude, Bapu won't leave till you change!

Munna, you're in trauma.

Go home. Rest.

Lucky, return the house.

Why mess with Bapu?

Get out!

Tell Bapu, I don't give

a sparrow's fart. That house is Mine!

You know,

But no. Watch my Gandhi-ing now.

No slaps, no guns,

but I'll get back the house.

Infact, you will hand me

the key. With a smile.

Make room.

More flowers will follow.

Get out!

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi indeed...!

Good Morning, Mumbai.

Our friend's in a coma.

He can't tell right from wrong.

Look Jhanvi, the show must go on.

It's a big hit.

- Unbelievable!

Hello. What's the problem?

My Dad has chosen a groom for me

from the matrimonials.

He says I'm to meet him

once and decide.

He'll be on his best behaviour!

To judge someone, observe how he

treats the less fortunate.

Where are you calling from?

- A restaurant.

He's on his way!

Simple! If he says, 'chu... chu... "

when calling the steward -...

...run!

You must be Priya... I'm Rahul.

- Yeah. Hi.

Pleasure to meet you.

What can I get for you?

Tea.

- Sure!

"Chu chu... "'

Yes, sir?

- One cappuccino for me...

and a tea for the lady...

where'd she go?

Thanks a lot, Murli.

If I had to live with

Mr 'Chu Chu', I'd die.

"People of Mumbai... "'

...if you spot Lucky Singh, give him

and tell him to be kind, not cruel.

Get well soon, dude!

Hey! Here!

Don't want any.

- It's a free gift for you, 'Uncle'

Get well soon, Lucky.

- Buzz off, you flea!

The guy who lives upstairs

loves chewing tobacco...

...but more than that, he loves

spitting it in front of my door!

I feel like strangling him!

Aha! Do the opposite!

Everytime he spits...

...give him a smile!

Let that Picasso see you

leaning his grafitti!

"No gun, no sword, not even a knife... "'

"our mighty weapon is smile,

not strife. "'

"He taught us love,

lived for the nation's dignity... "'

"he taught all humans

the essence of humanity. "'

For 3 days, I've cleaned his mess.

I know he won't change.

Bapu says, 'Don't lose faith'.

One day, his own shame will stop him.

Sorry...!

Three cheers for Gandhi-ing!

Flowers? I know what you're upto!

Stop mocking me! I know everything!

You need to 'Get well soon'!

I'm a retired teacher, son.

I've taught my students never to bribe.

But now, I'm being forced to bribe

to get my own pension!

The pension officer has withheld it

For 2 years.

I'm in serious trouble, son.

That pension is your right, sir!

We'll get it out of him!

What should I do, son?

Shame him. Show the world

how corrupt he is.

I have an idea.

Greetings...

Here, Rs. 1,200.

Rs. 1,200 won't get you

anywhere Mister.

Be patient, son. I have more!

My glasses are worth Rs. 500.

Hearing aid, Rs. 500.

My watch, Rs. 800.

My diabetes pills, Rs. 18.

Hey, hey, what's going on?

- Just a minute.

What on earth are you doing?

Shirt! Rs. 200.

Please stop!

- Just a minute...

Your vest?!

- That's Rs. 25.

My belt's Rs. 100.

Shoes, Rs. 300.

Please stop, Sir.

It's enough. I beg you.

I'll approve your pension.

Just stop.

My trousers, Rs. 300.

I will sign.

Hey! Bring this man his pension.

Hurry.

Three cheers for Gandhi-ing!

"No need for bloodshed,

no need for rage... "'

"the goodness of Gandhi

will win any war you wage. "'

"We salute you, O Motherland... "'

"for giving us this fearless man. "'

Heard his show?

Don't worry.

Just switch off the radio.

Switching off the radio

won't switch off his voice.

"The city's mesmerized. "'

My driver spat on the street...

...and 4 boys cleaned it cheerfully!

He's mentally unstable.

He's crazy.

"You told me he was a goon. "'

- Yes!

Is he a goon or is he nuts?

- He's a nutty goon.

"Well, I don't think he's either. "

The whole city is supporting him.

And by tomorrow, he'll be out

of this city.

You've said that before too.

Give me 24 hours.

I'll prove he's insane.

Cuckoo...

- Yes, Sir.

Call a press conference.

- Press conference?

Invite Munna.

Tell him I am returning the house.

Friends...

...I have the legal papers...

...and also the possession of

the house.

So legally the house is mine.

But when I heard Mahatma Gandhi

was interested in this house...

I said, 'Here. Take the key'.

Could I ever refuse such a great man?

Munna, tell them that

you can see Mahatma Gandhi.

It's true. I'm not lying...

they are close friends.

Murli, take over.

Hey, you just blurted out my secret!

Friends, it's true.

I can see Mahatma Gandhi.

He's taught me a lot.

I was going to tan Lucky's hide!

Bapu stopped me.

He said 'Change him with kindness. "

And look, he's a changed man today!

Is this a joke?

- Would I joke with Bapu around?
