OMG: Oh My God! Page #2

Synopsis: Kanji Lalji Mehta, though an atheist, owns a small shop selling religious goods, concocting cock-and-bull stories to extract higher fees from his customers for his wares. When, in openly defying God, an earthquake destroys his (and only his) only source of income, with the insurance company refusing to pay up on the basis of it being an 'act of God', Kanjibhai takes God to the court. With many similarly unfortunate people pinning their hopes to him, Kanji's lack of courtroom experience may leave him unable to prove his point - that is, until approached by a man introducing himself as Krishna Vasudeva Yadav. Krishna helps Kanji win his case, his family and helps him find his faith in God, along the way showing how priests can turn religion into a business and that God can be found everywhere, particularly in a house of worship.

Hear! Hear! Hear! Hear!

Calm down! Calm down!

lt's the Swami's orders.

Calm down!

Calm down! Calm down!

What orders?

Sri Siddeshwar Maharaj

has just said..

..that Lord Krishna

is very pleased..

..to see the crowd

that has gathered around..

..for the 'Janmastami' festivities.

And today He'll eat milk

and butter from His devotees.

Yes, he'll drink

milk and eat butter.

And Siddeshwar Maharaj

also says that..

..this auspicious opportunity

will last only for an hour.

Only one hour.

So, your time begins now.

Go. Go.

- Who is that imposter?

Hello, hello, hello.

Play. Play.

Go ahead, feed Him.

- What's wrong with the mic?

See what's wrong?

- What's wrong with the mic?

Where's everyone going?

Go, go.

- No, wait.

Where are you going?

- Go.

Play, play harder.

- Wait everyone, wait.

Even Siddeshwar Maharaj

is asking you to go.

Go, leave.

- Wait.

What have you done?

No, papa. No.

- Stupid fool,

breaking pots during your exams.

Stop it, stop it.

Go and feed Him butter.

l won't spare you next time.

Stop you fool!

You'll be punished

for your unpardonable sin.

He will punish you Himself.

Punish me?

Don't try to scare

me in the name of Lord.

l'll see what He does to me.

Go home, it's going to rain.

You'll get drenched.

lt's an earthquake.

Swamiji Rain?

Rain?

My hand's paining.

l won't be able to

write my exam tomorrow.

l'll slap you.

l'll make you hold the pen

in your mouth and write your paper.

You're scolding him.

But what about you?

- What did l do?

What?

The festivities

were left incomplete.

You've to admit that there's God.

You spread the rumour..

..and immediately

there was an earthquake.

Remember.

- What earthquake?

Even the utensils didn't budge.

Papa.

l think they took your

announcement too seriously.

This news just came in

from parts of the country..

..that the idol of Sri

Krishna's eating butter.

ls the Lord eating butter?

- No.

Priest, offer the

Lord some buttermilk.

People are offering cheese,

cottage-cheese..

..butter, buttermilk to

the idol of Krishna.

- Oh, God!

The rumour has spread so far.

Please, eat it.

This is low-cholesterol cheese.

The Lord's so lucky.

Look at the things He's getting.

Earlier, people would

keep it in a covered platter..

..in front of Him.

But now they're feeding Him.

Let Him enjoy.

lt's your fault.

Mumbai just experienced

a slight earthquake tremor..

..of 3.5 Richter scale,

which didn't cause..

..any harm to life or property.

See. Heard that?

But a shop in the flea

market has collapsed..

..which was closed at that time.

Must be Mohammad's shop.

According to our sources..

..the shop was registered to Mr.

Kanji Lalji Mehta.

lt's really surprising, because..

..there are other old shops in

this market which are still intact.

But Kanji Lalji Mehta's shop

has been completely destroyed.

This is Shweta Tiwari, with

cameraman Vaibhav Mishra, ABP News.

Sister, switch on ABP News quickly.

We saw.

Brother-in-law's shop is gone.

lt's collapsed.

Pravin!

- Calm down, father.

No, sister.

Come there with the children.

l'm coming there with

father and the others.

- Yes.

Yes, we're coming.

We're coming.

The idols of Gods

have gone underneath.

The shop is completely ruined

Doesn't seem like there

was ever a shop here.

What are you saying?

We had goods worth 25 lakhs.

And we'll have to

pay the scrap dealer..

..to have this cleared.

Why pay?

We'll give him one

of the broken idols..

..and say lt appeared

from the ground in Amarnath.

What are you saying,

brother-in-law?

You'll soon be bankrupt.

Do you know the losses

you've incurred?

40 lakhs.

Goods worth 25 lakhs

bought on credit..

..and 15 lakhs spent

on renovation last month.

40 lakhs? Where did

you get that kind of money?

We borrowed a part of the

amount by mortgaging the house.

And l borrowed 10

lakhs from a friend.

And 5 lakhs from your own pocket..

Pravin, you fool.

You didn't even ask me.

How will we arrange

for such a huge sum?

There's hardly 30400

thousand in the bank.

And we don't even have jewellery.

Sushila. We'll manage.

- How?

Why don't you understand?

lf you hadn't spoken

ill about the Lord..

..He wouldn't have

caused this earthquake.

His justice is silent.

Will you please stop preaching?

You mean to say, that the Lord..

..who doesn't exist,

razed down my shop..

..because l spoke ill about Him?

So, just to prove Himself..

..he razed down just

my shop in a fit of rage.

And if l still don't

believe in Him..

..he will make me

incur more losses?

- Yes.

What yes?

l still don't believe in You?

l haven't incurred any loss.

Look.

What's he doing?

- What..

Everything's lost, Kanji.

Only thing left

is this Godrej safe.

Rolex.

lt's a Rolex.

- No.

Mr. Dinesh. lsn't that

a Rolex watch you're wearing?

Must be worth 1 .5 -2 lakhs.

lt's worth 10.

Mr. Kanji.

l am sure you read

the terms and conditions..

..before reading the policy.

Not at all, sir.

Your officer asked me

to sign at the places marked..

..and l did so.

How irresponsible you are.

What happened, sir?

Your policy insures you against..

..accidents like theft,

fire, fraud.

Right. That's what we opted for.

But not against Act of God.

Act of God?

See, it's written here clearly.

Conditions apply.

My glasses..

- ln the event

of loss or damage to the property..
