He details how Sultan had survived floods in Madras, shortly after Independence; his arrival in Bombay; and his employment which earned him a mere 25 Paisa daily. Agnel's attempts to rein in Sultan fail, but he keeps tabs on him and his romance with Bollywood actress, Rehana; as well as his new recruit, Shoaib, the son of Sub-Inspector Khan. Agnel will find his investigation slipping out of his hands after Sultan temporarily delegates complete responsibility to Shoaib.

There's a two-in-one, phone.

How many have them?

What is all this?

Progress.

I work for sultan mirza.

Do you know what that

means? - Yes, i do.

And i know how dangerous

the job is.

Yes.

Yes, i'm on my way.

Sultan, rag picker manya

at teen batti...

...has sent a message.

Agnel knows about our plan.

Manya is two-faced.

He must have given this

information to agnel.

Now that agnel knows...

...he must have blocked

all roads.

He won't let our vehicles

through.

What should we do?

Return wardhan's money?

Our respect will ruined, sultan.

Those who bow before us...

...will steer clear

of us in future.

What should we do?

It's easy to say such things,

but not to do this job.

There's nothing to worry.

We'll break through

the barricades.

Hey, have you lost it.

Let me plan something.

Let me first take care of

the job you've promised.

Then i'll get rid of

our loop holes.

And i can execute both the jobs.

All the influential people of

mumbai are present here.

Builders, cricketers,

actors and actresses.

The mayor's present as

well. Having a drink.

Shoaib, let's go back.

I feel strange amongst

these people.

Sultan has called me.

He invited me especially.

It's his party.

He said there won't be

any party without you.

Come on, come quietly.

Meet my wife. - Hello.

Thank you.

Celebrating before

the job's done.

I'm slightly crazy

since childhood.

I know how to fix you if you

don't get the job done.

Brother, normally in

birthday parties...

...children don't leave

without a return gift.

Today these people won't either.

So, what's going on? - Nothing.

We were just chatting.

You'll get bored standing here.

Let's go have a drink.

Do you want to get us fired?

Don't worry, we'll drink what

they're drinking inside.

Come on then. - Fine.

Get hold of a posh tailor.

I want you to stitch clothes

like sister-in-law, rihana.

You've an awesome figure.

It should show.

What are you saying?

Are you too drunk?

You're uttering nonsense again.

I'm not the caterer to drink

after everyone leaves.

Shoaib.

I needed your help.

But i don't know how to say it.

Say it.

I need your photographer.

Photographer? For what?

Actually my photos are

being published...

...in the newspapers

these days as well.

But it's horrible.

I was thinking of getting

a nice photo clicked...

...and have it sent to them.

No matter what i do...

...but the picture

should look nice.

You want to be like

sultan, don't you?

A bit, i like his style.

Our party is better than the

one inside, isn't it?

Drink away, the night is young.

Shoaib is doing good work.

Get married.

It's difficult.

These days he tries

to imitate you.

You didn't get married... so he

won't attempt it either.

But before that... maybe... - she

never talks any sense.

Don't even try to make sense.

Is the job done? - Its

partly taken care of.

It'll be done once

the party is over.

So the party's over. - Suddenly?

I invited them.

So they'll leave on my order.

That's the mayor's car.

Who can stop him?

We'll check sultan and

his cars. - Fine.

Open the gate. - Open it.

Open it quickly.

It's the mayor's car.

I want to check the car

and not the mayor.

Open the boot.

What is this insolence?

Being the mayor, you're

returning from smuggler's party.

And calling me insolent.

Let me do my duty.

Open the boot.

Check it.

Open the bonnet.

What's wrong, officer?

It's a checking. Open the boot.

Hurry up.

Firstly the monsoon and

now this checking.

Sakharam, open the boot quickly.

That car as well.

Leave.

Check properly. There's still

much left to load.

That was fun. - Hurry up.

Shoaib, you were terrific as

a police officer today.

For the first time father's

uniform has come in handy.

Careful. It contains watches

and transistors.

Why are you being so hasty?

I'll slap you...

is anything broken?

No, shoaib, it doesn't contain

anything that can be broken.

And sultan is not going

to like this.

Hello.

There's no match to the

cheetah's speed...

...the grip of a python and

the cunningness of sultan.

This boy has done this job.

I wouldn't have ever brought

the goods here.

Sultan, i can never believe...

...you don't fail to do a

job that you undertake.

Will you believe that

today's my birthday?

Come, lets cut the cake.

Sultan, you should've

informed me earlier.

I would've got a nice

gift for you.

Tell me, what do you want?

Tell me.

Do you have a match?

- Matches. Here.

Sultan, what have you done?

Have you gone crazy?

Do you want more profit?

Do you want a larger share?

Then i will do so.

But... - wardhan. I only

smuggle things...

...which the government

doesn't permit.

And not things which my

conscience doesn't permit me.

Shoaib didn't stop

after that job.

His new ideas, thinking, helped

him progress in the business.

He started smuggling

goods in ambulances.

People were terrified by him.

But i had turned a blind eye...

...because shoaib was getting

closer to sultan.

Shoaib was... searching for a man.

My informer... who was

deceiving them.

In this world... people

are... often... duped.

Just a gaze... steals

their heart.

In this world... people

are... often... duped.

Just a gaze... steals

their heart.

Two young hearts.

The eyes speak.

Let no one come between them.

These mysteries.

Why be so mysterious?

These mysteries.

Why be so mysterious?

Monica, oh my darling.

Monica...

oh my darling.

My lovers deceitful and

passionate as well.

Why wonder what he wants when

i am in love with him.

Where should i seek love?

The entire world's my enemy.

The one you trust.

Walk up to him and say...

these mysteries.

Why be so mysterious?

I broke his leg. But he fled.

You know what to do...

...when the horse starts to limp.

Sultan has sent a message.

Bet on the limping horse today.

Tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock.

The ship's name is al marina.

He's here.

Look, he's here.

There's restlessness growing

every moment.

Youth is anxious.

I am restless, you're

restless.

That's the saga of this

ruthless heart.

There's restlessness growing

every moment.

Youth is anxious.

I am restless, you're

restless.

That's the saga of this

ruthless heart.

The heart's smouldering.

My heart's your abode.

Come dwell in my heart.

Where else can you go?

These mysteries.

Why be so mysterious?

These mysteries.

Why be so mysterious?

Monica, oh my darling.

Rihana.

Sultan, what's happening to me?

You'll be fine, hold on.

Patrick, hurry up.

Don't let me die.

Patrick, hurry up.

Sir... - wait.

There's a patient in the

car, we're in a hurry.

We need to go to the

hospital. Let us go.

Come out.

Didn't you hear? Go away.

I think you didn't hear.

Rascals, you smuggle gold

in an ambulance...

...and patients in the car.

Do you think the police

are fools? Come out.

Driver, open the luggage

boot and let me check.

Hey, officer...

you want to check the

car, don't you?

I'll show you each and every
