Or the manager will cause trouble...

Papa John's...

He looks so nice,

Why call him papa?

That is his name.

I can't figure out these things...

Pizza is my favourite.

Shall I order?

Oh go ahead...

OK! How about one tandoori

chicken with fresh red onions...

...fresh green peppers,

red paprika and golden corn?

Will that do?

O yes, go ahead.

So why did you tell the

broker you won't marry me?

I'll just order and come...

Oh, who is this? Your boyfriend?

Are you on a date?

What is the bill amount?

Three ten...why?

Oh...

Please have some water.

The glass is nice...

Your order will be

620 rupees including tax...

You have the money right?

I am asking this because a lot of

people walk in without realizing...

...while paying the

bill they struggle.

You know how expensive

things are today.

My salary is 8000 rupees...

...and still I have to struggle.

Let it be.

Today, in your theater, sorry, talkies...

don't you have to shine the torch?

So what Kannada

movie is running now?

Shwetha!

Your order is ready,

I'll just bring it...

Please wait.

Thank you for meeting me sir!

Don't call me sir... Please...

How can I call you by name sir?

Very simple. Nikki...Nikki...

Sorry...

But you are my senior sir.

How can I...?

I don't talk to people

who call me sir...

Sir...OK ...Nikki.

Tell me.

I don't know sir...

Sorry...Nikki,

I've been fond of

acting since childhood.

People should admire me...

I should be famous...

...and people should

always talk about me.

Is there a bigger curse than that?

I don't understand

what you are saying...sorry

Do you know why we

both are alone here?

Oh yes, aren't we?

It's a nice place.

Because I have booked

the entire pub for us.

Really? Wow!

But why?

For you.

Really...so we can chat peacefully.

See what you can

do when you are a star!

What are you doing?

It's a competition...who among

us will wind this down faster?

Are you ready?

Are you kidding me?

No...come on, 1...2...3...start!

Come on, quickly!

Shwetha,

Don't be afraid of me.

Only my complexion

is dark...l am a good man...

That day when I visited

you with my parents...

I realized how

I must have hurt you.

I came apologize.

I have studied little, it

takes time for me to understand...

You look beautiful...

...you'll find an educated guy, OK?

Torch shiners like me...

shouldn't dream

of people like you...

I have a memory

of yours...take this!

Please take it.

I'll see you.

Dad...dad!

How many times to tell you

not to sleep in front of the TV?

Did you have food?

Sleep then...good night!

Good night...

My name is

Ravindranath

I deal with...deal with... Deal

with the mineral water business!

You will ruin our plan!

You can't speak proper Kannada!

Sir!

He is ready.

You will do only

what we tell you to...

...your tricks won't work with us.

The three of you go in a car...

I'll follow you.

You guys go with sir.

Sanjay, are you ready?

Someone's beating

on the drum of my heart

But the beat is too strong

It has begun to hurt

The brain filled with her memories

Torturing me to death

From my eyes they overflow

Drowning me in a fog.

- Hello sir!

- How far is it from here?

Hey, how far from here?

Just ahead...

Nearly there sir...

I'll be waiting ahead

at that tea stall.

Right sir...

Sir, I will remain in the vehicle.

My appearance can cause suspicion.

If you have any trouble,

signal me sir...

I will come immediately.

Hello, sir,

your three boxes are lying here.

When will you pick them up?

OK, please come soon.

OK, OK sir.

Hmm...?

I was supposed to

introduce him to sir...

Right, sit down.

Please come...

Hey, lift...tight...very nice!

Sir, someone has come...

Coming...

This is him sir...

My name is Ravindranath...

lam in the min...mineral

water business...

Oh welcome to my factory.

Please come.

Look, Mr. Ravindranath...

I started this business

in a tent by the roadside.

Within four years,

I have built a factory.

Very good...

Hey, "before"...

Darling, "after"...

Forty...forty...

...thirty six

You match the skin

- I will match the body...

- OK, sir.

Our business is a thousand times better

than your mineral water business...

Very creative...

the products of our product!

People these days

care about their looks.

They have to shine everywhere...

in the papers, TV, internet...

The wimps want six-packs...

the fatties want to be size zero!

And they all want quick results,

which I can provide.

And of course, don't even

ask about sex-related products.

There's too much demand.

- Do these things work?

- Why think about that?

It's all smoke and mirrors only...

People don't want the bitter truth...

...they want sugar-coated lies.

Advertisement and branding!

This is hundred percent profits...

You can invest blindly...

...you don't worry

about anything at all!

Meet my wife Shobalatha...

Hello!

Sir, tell me sir which product

would you like to begin with?

Weight gain,

weight loss, hair gain, hair loss...

...fairness, darkness, sexual, skin...

You can start with any one of these...

...and I will give

you credit benefits.

This is common.

I want something special.

Unique.

If you have it, tell me...

Sir, we have launched a new product...

...we haven't obtained a license yet.

It's in great demand...

The guy who got you here,

he made his money with that product...

I want something like that.

The product is called Lucia.

It is a dream pill.

You don't have to go to the

gym and workout to lose weight.

But you can dream that

you have a sexy figure.

Dream pill, is it even possible?

Yes sir, everything is possible.

You know this pill is

in great demand and it works.

Nobody likes their life, sir.

They always wish their

life was different...

...alternate reality.

This pill makes it possible.

Wow, very nice!

Do people know about it?

How do they find out about it?

You sell it as a sleeping pill.

They take it because

it puts them to sleep...

and they see the

dreams that they like.

And these pills are addictive.

Any side effects?

Don't you worry...

Just moments ago, there was

another attempt on Nikhil's life.

Hooked up to a life support system

with his life hanging by a thread...

...Nikhil was attacked right in

the ICU. The attacker was a woman.

Here are the details.

Tchtch, it is really sad.

That lady dressed

up as a doctor to go in.

Mr. Ravindranath,

what you have is just a sample.

I am sure you will come

back with a large order.

Because your customer's dreams...

are my dreams also.

I will call, sir... OK.

Mr. Detective, got the updates?

This girl is lying, believe me.

Sanjay, she was caught red-handed.

What more proof do you want?

The media has got

the original footage

and they are playing

the footage on loop.

There is some connection between

this case and this Lucia tablet.

Hey get him into the vehicle,

let us go.

See, this investigation is closed.

Go to your room, take some rest.
