lt's only through your Uncle

Brij that l get news of you.

Mother, it's the time

difference between here and America.

Uncle Brij is a nocturnal bird.

lt's easier to talk with him.

Hey!

Brother!

Already pouncing on mom's parathas!

You've become thin! Hasn't he, mom?

Let him be.. Come, eat.

No, l've to go to the Party HQ.

l just came to see him.

While Veerendra believed

himself to be the heir..

..to the political throne..

Prithvi was jockeying

for the same position.

Hence, it was imperative

that his supporters get..

..nominated for these elections.

Create so much publicity that the

party is forced to nominate them.

We'll fight to get that.

We'll create a chaos

in the party high court.

We'll show them your power, Prithvi.

Great!

Let me go!

They're trying to stop me!

l told them l had to talk to you.

We're in a meeting. Please wait.

So.. that's it then.

Yes, sir.

Move then. lt's time for the party.

Okay, sir.

Jagat.. call for my car, too.

- Okay, sir.

You seem to have forgotten me, sir.

There's going to be a

fresh election, l hear.

Won't you let a

woman volunteer contest?

l can win, sir. Just let..

Let me contest from Sitapur.

l'll definitely win.

l grew up there.

l was the students' union president.

Sir, please don't

forget me this time.

The Sitapur ticket..

That's the bloody

problem with politics.

Everyone treats it

like public transport.

Just flag it down..

and mount it!

l've worked very hard, sir.

And will continue to do so.

Let me.

You handled grandpa Rai

like a seasoned politician.

Then, why don't you reward your son?

Everything belongs to him anyway.

Father, let me select

the election candidates.

That's your uncle's prerogative.

That's why Prithvi..

But l won't let it go on like this.

So glad you're here.

lt's your birthday, Uncle.

Wouldn't miss it for the world.

Hello.

- How are you? - Hello.

Mr. Sakseria..

Hello, uncle.

Bless you.

- Hello.

Just got his tax problems

sorted out by the Chief Minister.

You never forget, Rajkumar..

- and now you'll say..

- Happy Birthday to you, sir.

Just saying happy birthday won't do.

Always at your service.

Have l ever disappointed you?

Please be seated.. quiet..

After winning three elections..

when the electorate rejected us..

in the last election..

we accepted their

decision with humility.

And we helped..

Mr. Ramnath Rai form a

coalition government..

supporting it from outside.

But, as you know..

in the last 18 months..

this government has

revealed it's true face.

Corruption has reached its zenith..

and the people are in agony.

We can't bear to see the

common man's pain any longer.

So, we have decided..

to withdraw our support for Mr.

Rai's coalition government.

Long live Rashtrawadi!

The people know..

that we aren't responsible..

for this political turmoil.

Father!

- Brother! - Father! - Brother!

Call the hospital! Emergency..

Get the car!

Hello.

Just as l handed in

the resignation, l heard.

- At least, if l hadn't resigned..

- Father-in-law..

..please!

lncrease the pressure.

Mr. Brij Gopal..

Blood pressure.

- Diastolic 140.

l came from

Benaras only to see you..

and here l hear about this crisis.

lt's serious, Uncle..

l'll see.

Blood pressure.

While the heart has been revived..

there's no movement in the body.

So, is he paralysed?

We'll have to wait for

the ECG reports for that.

The government has fallen and

fresh elections are certain.

But the leader of the

state's largest political party..

is fighting for his life.

- Without party

president Bhanu Pratap..

- what does the future hold

for the Rashtrawadi Party?

- State Hospital.

Aditi Priya. Star News.

Go ahead.

Before they try to pull a fast one..

we should take control of the party.

We support you.

l'll see you all

at the party office.

Yes, Mr. Bawal.

Hello?

What?

Under no circumstances

should that meeting happen.

Book the entire

lntercontinental Hotel.

Got it?

Listen..

round up every party member

and take them to the hotel.

These impatient youngsters

will destroy everything.

Now, more than ever, the

party needs your guidance.

Turn around. Father has

regained consciousness.

As soon as he became conscious,

he called for everybody.

Chandu..

Yes, brother..

- The..

ln these circumstances, the party..

Brother, please, we'll talk later..

- What?

- take charge of.. the party..

as it's working president.

What's the need for this, father?

You..

and Prithvi..

will both be general secretaries.

Uncle!

Come on..

What have you done, father!

Take it back! Please..

This is a humiliation for me..

At least, make me the

joint working president..

Veerendra.. you're family!

You should look beyond such things.

Everything will finish, then..

Father..

Father!

Go back..

back to America..

- Long live Prithvi!

- Long live the General Secretary!

- Long live Prithvi!

- Long live the General Secretary!

- Long live Prithvi!

- Long live the General Secretary!

Hi!

Miss you.

l want us to discuss

each candidate thoroughly.

l have already made the list.

Just approve it!

Veerendra, our party

follows a democratic process.

Each and every

recommendation is discussed.

Will you be kind enough to tell us,

which democratic process..

was followed to make you

the working president?

Uncle..

the very president by whose grace..

you're adorning that chair..

has seen this list.

Then, surely you have

his approval in writing.

This list will prevail!

Discuss all you want.

How come you've put your

name against Madhopur?

Mr. Bhanu Pratap has

always contested from Madhopur.

And in father's absence,

the seat is rightfully..

No claim for Madhopur

will be entertained.

lt is reserved for

the party president.

And currently,

that is Chandra Pratap.

Only the party president

should contest from Madhopur.

Have you even fought a

municipal election..

that you're staking

your claim to Madhopur?!

l will never let

your dream come true..

Honourable Working President!

- Long live Prithvi!

He's here! The leader is here!

He's come to Azad Nagar.

We all welcome him here.

The people of Azad Nagar whole

heartedly welcome the leader.

- Long live Prithvi!

Everyone knows that..

30 years ago..

our party reclaimed this land from

the government and their agents..

and established Azad Nagar!

My heart beats for..

the poor and the lower castes..

Who is this?

Our driver's son

- Sooraj.

Also a kabaddi champion.

This isn't a dance party.

Tell them to stop.

l want that the

candidate for Azad Nagar..

should be educated, able and..

from amongst you.

Sooraj is our leader!

Yeah.. okay.. okay..

The Rashtrawadi Party

candidate for Azad Nagar will be..

Jeevan Kumar!

Jeevan Kumar may

belong to our caste..

but that doesn't

necessarily make him one of us.

He knows nothing about Azad Nagar.

He's never set foot

in our dirty lanes..

and nor will he, once

the elections are over.

Excuse me?
