Token number 5 just went in!

Your number will come by evening!

Ma'am, can't you do something?

Something!

- Yes!

Possible! You should

have told me before!

I knew that you will

do something for me!

We are old acquaintances.

We met that day.

Let it be! 38 is fine!

I will manage!

People have to struggle a bit.

Method, I think is so methodical.

I mean it just takes

away the naturalist.. the..

The spontaneity

from your performance!

I absolutely agree with you!

That's why I hate actors like

Al Pacino, Robert De Neiro..

..Dustin Hoffman.

You know give me an

actor like Nicholas Cage!

Or Sean Penn.

I love Sean Penn!

He is God of acting!

I just saw a girl here.

She gives me signs.

But I think she is

afraid of somebody.

Yes, she is afraid.

Yes, she is afraid.

Yes, ma'am!

Hello!

Thank you!

Hello!

- Good morning!

Name!

- Anthony! Anthony Gonsalves!

You didn't tell ma'am about me?

Sorry!

No, no! No need to

say sorry! You say!

We will talk in English.

So that my colleagues

too understand. Okay.

English!

You see the

coefficient of the linear..

..just opposition

is just a position..

..by the hemoglobin of the

atmospheric pressure of the country!

Who is this joker?

What is he saying?

Ma'am, he has to

make a movie in Hindi.

So he should know Hindi.

Yeah. Yeah.

Okay, Mr. Gonsalves!

We will talk in Hindi!

Now tell me! What

experience do you have in acting?

Ma'am, my experience is first class.

Whenever I act.. my

experience is really good.

Acting runs in my blood. I am..

She means to say, have

you ever acted before?

In any movie or TV serial.

No, no! I don't

like TV medium, ma'am!

I am the man of the big screen!

I watch movies! That too

first day first show on Fridays!

Always!

Surely you must have

done some theatre.

In theatre! I don't

watch movies on TV!

He is talking about working,

not watching!

Have you ever acted before?

What are you talking, ma'am?

There is no child in Chapel Road..

..who has not seen Anthony's acting!

You come and ask them!

Ask Ria ma'am! Am I right, ma'am!

You too saw Kalia's trailer,

didn't you?

Who can tie somebody?

You.. you know this guy?

No! No, ma'am! I just

happen to be passing by!

All right! All right! Never mind!

Just get him to read

for Anthony! Okay!

Yes, ma'am!

I will just be back,

ma'am! I will be back, sir!

Come!

- Greetings! Greetings!

What are you doing?

Will you get me sacked?

Why are you so scared?

He has no chance!

I will give such an audition

that you will get a pay rise.

Now listen to me! Your

character's name is Anthony!

Anthony's role!

- I will act so well!

Now tell the rest to go home!

I will tell them! Now

listen to me carefully.

Ms. Barucha has set William

Shakespeare's Julius Caesar..

..in Mumbai's underworld.

There are 4 main

characters in this movie.

Firstly is Julius Caesar himself.

Caesar is a big and dangerous don.

Nothing can happen without his wish.

And his most

trustworthy friend is.. Brutus.

Brutus is as powerful as Caesar.

But he is more

dangerous than Caesar.

The third one is Casio.

He pretends to be a friend.

But actually he is

jealous of Caesar's success.

He is very intelligent.

But he needs Brutus's

power to compete with Caesar.

And Anthony amidst all of them!

I understood the story.

Now what do I have to do?

Excellent!

This is the copy of

the scene. Enact it.

My name is Sikandar!

Come on! Come!

Maqsood, you too!

Brothers.. friends..

Mr. Murtuza!

I have not come here

to praise Sikandar.

I have come to bury him here.

A person's vice doesn't

leave him even after his death.

And his virtue dies with him.

Let the same thing

happen with Sikandar.

Maqsood-bhai told everybody..

..that Sikandar was selfish.

He was a traitor.

He was building castles in the air.

Maqsood-bhai won't lie.

Maqsood-bhai is an honest man.

Sikandar never exploited a poor man!

He took the hardship of

his friend on himself.

He slept in the hut so

that sir can have a bungalow.

If this is not building castle

in the air, then what is it?

Thanks a lot for calling an

ordinary man like me here.

And giving me a chance to speak.

And to shed two tears

on my friend's death.

But forgive me.

I will shed tears at

this traitor's death.

Because if Sikandar

obligation was nil..

..still everybody would have

been under his obligation.

Hello!

Anthony! You didn't go home?

How can I go? You didn't tell me.

Where is the shooting and when?

I told you. They will

call and let you know.

So will I wait for

the call the whole day?

Tell me honestly. Do

I have any chance?

You have a chance. But..

- But what?

Will I get the role?

What can I do, Anthony? I am

just an assistant director!

Ms. Barucha didn't even ask

whether I liked the audition.

Did you like it?

- She didn't ask me!

No, no! I am asking it!

Did you like it?

It was okay! In fact not bad!

Then will I get the role?

- Yes!

No, no! Nothing is confirmed!

Tomorrow we will again

see all the auditions!

Don't keep me waiting!

Tell me honestly!

Will I get the role?

My dear Anthony! Please understand!

audition in the past 3 days!

Tomorrow we will

come to know whether..

..you are the chosen one

from those 200 guys or not!

What, ma'am? I am one in a million!

I can see that!

I have an idea! I will..

- Look, Anthony!

If you bored me,

then I will myself..

..cancel your name from the list!

And I will tell Barucha!

That you got in fraudulently!

What? - I will call you tomorrow.

Tomorrow I will ask you.

Tell me tomorrow.

Okay. I will leave now.

Don't get angry. Sorry.

Idiot!

Bunty!

- Yes, sir!

Quickly get Bedi's head! Quickly!

- I will just get it!

Will it work today or not?

Who is it?

Anthony! How was your audition?

It was superb!

Everybody was impressed!

Everybody said an

actor should be like me!

Look there! Actors

should be like him!

What an actor!

If somebody wants

to become an actor..

..then he should fall at his feet!

Sir.

- Got it?

What is he doing! Who is he?

Anil!

- Who is this boy?

He is Anthony! I know him!

He wants to be an actor!

He is a nice boy.

- I see!

Get me a chair.

So you want to be an actor!

Yes, sir! I am your big fan!

You act so well! It looks so real!

It looks easy! But when you

actually do it, it's difficult!

Difficult!

When you do it emotionally

then nothing is difficult!

Sir, today I too gave an audition.

There every actor

was trying to be smart!

Method acting and

God knows what not!

I couldn't understand anything, sir!

Sir, explain it in simple terms.

I see! Have you heard

Stanoslovaski's name?

Stanoslovaski! Forget it!

Russia! Russia country!

Yes! I know Russia, sir!

I saw James Bond's movie!

From Russia with love!

He is a famous

director in that country.

Constantine Stanoslovaski

- What?

Constantine. Forget it.

I will explain in your language.

This Russian man has

explained acting in simple terms.

He said that there are

four pillars of acting.
