At home, you are scared of your wife.

And outside, of the police.

No one can dare trouble him

as long as I am with him.

How can anyone

file a complaint against him?

Make a large drink for me

so that I can think clearly.

Then we will see what we should do

about the mechanic.

We are out of alcohol.

There was some left from

yesterday's get together. We drank it.

Ask Bhola to get alcohol.

"While I ride my bike,

they all call me naive."

What is this?

Whose is it?

Okay, alcohol is here.

Get your glasses ready.

Today, someone forgot his bag

in the rickshaw.

Great. You got lucky.

Let me see what's in it.

- I checked it.

I thought it might contain his address

and I would return it to him.

But it contains a movie's script.

Gill, is your phone ringing?

I didn't bring my phone.

She keeps calling and asking

when I will be back.

She ruins the mood.

They know nothing.

Let me check. I think it's mine.

Look, master has already

started getting calls.

Hello?

Yes, I am coming. I am about to leave.

Okay.

Make a drink for me.

Call your father and ask

when he is coming back.

His phone is with me.

He left it at home.

Today he will get sloshed

and come home.

What does he think of himself?

I will ruin his life.

I'll make him spend the rest of his life

visiting high court.

You didn't say anything wrong,

you have friends like us.

We will kill him.

What do you say, master?

Yes. Right.

Gill..

Don't mind me saying this, but you

get trapped because of your pride.

This is not right.

You came back to India after two years.

Have you come here

to keep visiting the court?

It is your shop.

You have filed a case in the court.

The decision will be made in your favor.

You should relax.

Eat and drink..

Master, make a drink for him.

Okay.

Hello?

Yes?

I-I am coming. I am almost there.

Don't mind me saying this, master.

But this is the problem

with you educated ones.

You are very scared of your wives.

Hey, you are a carefree lion.

You have a wife at home and

someone else when you are in the truck.

I know everything.

As to from where you pick up

which passengers.

Listen.. Tell me the truth.

How many passengers

have you picked up so far?

You pick a passenger at one turn

and drop at the other.

Such short trips

are always off the record.

Really?

- There are no records about them.

Really?

So, you do that as well?

As if you don't.

You stay alone over there.

You are not the kind who gets scared.

No. Dubai is very strict.

And I stay busy with the shifts.

You don't get time to do anything else.

Oh, no..

Hello? I-I am coming..

I am right outside the house.

Okay, friends, I will have to leave now.

See you tomorrow.

Wait, I will come with you.

Okay.

- Drop me home.

Bye.

- Bye.

Bye.

The bottle is over.

What is our program now?

This isn't enough.

Thami is still in my mind.

The more you think about him,

the more his thoughts will trouble you.

Let us get some more alcohol.

Let's go.

Let us get a bottle.

Right.

Let's go.

Bhola, pull over.

What happened?

- Do we know that girl?

No.

Then why do I feel

as if she is looking at us?

Because you are drunk.

I swear by God.

Don't drag God into such bad things.

You are a vegetarian.

You won't be able to eat a fish.

Why? Will I get allergies from the fish?

Okay then, I will go and hook this fish.

I was just saying.

And now, I am saying.

Why are you standing here

all by yourself, ma'am?

No one has come to take me along.

Let's sit and talk somewhere then.

Who wants to talk? You or him?

I am a native.

We can talk whenever we want.

But he has come from Dubai.

He will be going away.

Today, he will do the talking.

Bhola, I won't get into trouble, will I?

You could.

Don't get me killed.

Go back. Let's go back.

Why are you doing this, Gill?

If you have a desire then fulfill it.

Don't worry.

Nothing will happen. I am here.

I will go inside and find out.

Why are you so scared?

No, why would I be scared?

Then why are you holding my veil?

Oh.. Sorry.

Hello, sir.

I need a room.

For how many days, sir?

Not for days, only for a few hours.

I have two passengers.

They will freshen up and leave.

Sir, we will get thrashed

if the police shows up.

Please take them somewhere else.

Really?

- Yes.

Okay.

They show up to book rooms

on hourly basis.

Thank you.

We will have to go somewhere else.

Is this your first time?

I never needed it.

You must be having a wife.

Yes.

- You must need a change.

By the way, what do you do?

This!

It didn't work out here as well.

Do you know of any hotel, ma'am?

Bhola, it would have been better

if the place was our own.

A new place might be risky. Right?

- Yes.

It is possible that I do to you

what you want to do to me.

Hey!

I know a place.

Have you lost your mind?

My house is at the back.

That is at the back.

The shop is in the front.

There is a distance of 100 yards

between the two.

I will be in trouble

if anyone even gets a hint about it.

How will anyone get a hint?

I will send both of you inside

and put a lock outside.

Even a thief wouldn't know

what's happening inside.

I will open it after an hour.

But..

- Forget your ifs and buts.

Go inside.

Take this.

It will give you some energy.

Now, will you keep peeping

into your house all night long?

I was just checking whether

my wife is asleep or not.

She might be sleeping in the house

but she is still awake in your heart.

This is the problem with married men.

When they are with their wives,

they think about other women.

When they are with other women,

they think about their wives.

Sorry. You might not be

too comfortable at this place.

I am comfortable everywhere.

I don't have to stay permanently anywhere.

Yes!

You didn't go to bed yet?

I didn't call thinking that

you might be in bed.

That I shouldn't disturb you.

Hey..

You are yet to eat your dinner?

So late?

I will call you after some time.

Ruldua!

Open it.

Ruldua!

Ruldua! You shut the bar so soon?

Why did you shut it so soon?

There is still time left.

As you wish.

If you don't sell it to me,

then I will go somewhere else.

You should have counted.

I had counted them

when they were in your pocket.

When I saw you at the wine shop.

You can drink that later.

Why are you wasting time?

Well, look, I have never

done such a thing before.

This place, and my house at the back..

I am not feeling comfortable.

Please, let me relax.

You still need alcohol to relax?

As you wish.

"When I used to be

approaching her place.."

"She used to go to the terrace

in a hurry."

"She is my beloved!"

"She used to fight with other girls."

"The one who used to treat my heart

as delicately as flowers."

"She shattered my heart."

"The one who used to ask me

not to leave her.."

"Today, she left me."

"She left me."

Wonderful!

Hey! Hey, hello.

I am off duty.

That means on a holiday.

I searched the whole city for you.

And look where I found you!
