Mr. General Secretary..

our candidate will be one of us!

Not an outsider.

This isn't a kabaddi match.

l am speaking of the

Legislative Assembly election.

And the Rashtrawadi

candidate will definitely be..

Jeevan Kumar.

- We protest!

- We don't want outsiders!

- We protest!

We don't want outsiders!

Long live Sooraj!

Long live!

- Prithvi!

Try to understand.

You're not aware that

Jeevan Kumar's grandfather..

was a minister in

the Central government.

So?

That makes it his birthright,

does it?

What does he know about us?!

Educated abroad..

owns mansions..

he owns four Mercedes cars of

the kind that you chauffeur, dad!

He wouldn't last a day here!

How is he one of us!

Enough is enough!

lt's do or die this time.

What is it that you people want?

Whose job is it to select the

candidate - yours or the party's?

We'll choose our own candidate!

What?

You'll rebel against the party?

Without the party,

you won't garner five votes.

lnstead, you'll end up

dividing the lower caste votes.

So what do you suggest?

That we continue to suck up..

to these politicians..

while they plant

their leaders on us?

lt isn't like that, son.

The party cares for us.

They treat us like equals.

Look, Samar came just for a day..

but he got me a new watch.

- a watch?

- Yes.

So that you report to work on time.

That's the problem with you guys.

You've barely learnt to walk,

but want to fly!

You guys are history!

We generate the power.

Then why should we

hand them the switch?

From now on, no outside

candidates allowed in Azad Nagar!

- Who ls our leader?

- Sooraj, Sooraj.

- Victory to Sooraj!

- Long live Sooraj!

Do you know me?

You're a big man.

How is a nobody like me

supposed to know you, Mr. Babulal?

l like your attitude.

But, these speeches and

stunts will get you nowhere.

Even if you win the election

as an independent.. big deal!

lnstead the party will

punish Azad Nagar for its defeat.

lf you really want to change

anything, join the party..

and fight as its candidate.

Come on!

Get down.

You know, l'm going to

contest the elections this time.

And you'll see, l'll become

the youngest woman minister ever.

- Really?

- Of course!

And when you come the next time..

l'll come to receive you in a

car with a flashing red light.

- Wow!

Such a grand lunch for

one measly vote of mine?

For your vote?!

Can't you be a little romantic?

- With you?

- No..

with this waiter!

Look here, don't ruin my mood.

l want to have a serious chat.

That's very serious.

Stop, stop!

Not just like that.

First propose.

Okay..

Let's drink to your

flashing red light.

- Red light?

- Yes.

When you become a minister..

you will have a car with a

flashing red light, won't you?

Samar!

When are we getting married?

Why do you look so shocked?

Marriage..

l..

l didn't quite understand.

You'll understand alright when

the priest recites the vows..

and l make you take 17

rounds of the sacred fire..

Stop, stop!

lndu..

l know how you feel about me.

But my feelings aren't

the same for you, lndu.

l mean, you're an amazing girl.

So beautiful..

full of life.. honest..

just lovely, but..

You can't love me!

Do you know this is the first

time you've complimented me?

Beautiful, amazing..

full of life..

You can say all this but..

you can't utter three words..

l love you.

And here l am..

madly in love with you..

since childhood.

l'm sorry.

l won't be able to forgive myself.

Have you never loved me?

We're just too different, lndu.

Long live Rashtrawadi!

l have a simple question

for the Working President:

On what basis were

the candidates chosen?

Answer this first: On what basis..

did you announce your

name from the Madhopur seat?

Prithvi Pratap.

Veerendra..

you're well aware that the

core committee discusses..

every candidature

before taking any decision.

l want to say something.

You?

What the hell are you doing here?

My name is Sooraj.

l'm from Azad Nagar.

Yeah.. yeah.. The kabaddi champ!

- But, what Are you doing here?

l want a ticket to

contest the election.

Really now!

We're running a charity fete here!

You want a ticket, do you?

Didn't you hear me..

when you were busy dancing around?

Our party's candidate for

Azad Nagar is Jeevan Kumar.

Got that?

Get out now!

Security!

l had heard you.

But perhaps, you could

neither hear nor see that..

the people of Azad Nagar

rejected your candidate instantly.

l'm the leader of the lower castes..

and they will support only me.

What did you say!

Who made you our leader?

We sweated blood for the party..

but suddenly you

become the leader, is it?

Everyone knows where..

the fruits of your sweat are hidden.

We'll make you account

for that too one day!

For now, l only want a

ticket to contest from Azad Nagar.

You'll take us to task, will you?

l'll show you.

Son, what are you doing!

ls this the way to speak here?

Please, Sirs..

l apologise on his behalf.

- Come..

- Father, please..

Keep quiet now. Enough!

- Get him out of here!

- Throw him out!

Take him away.

- He thinks He can

contest an election.

Learn to drive instead

of dreaming of leadership.

Security!

- Come on.

He isn't going anywhere!

- He stays here.

- here? Meaning?

lt's clear, Prithviraj.

Sooraj happens to be a

member of the core committee.

- No one can throw him out.

- What is this nonsense!

Who made him a member?

l did.

The secretary of the

backward and minority cell.

- But, Mr. Veerendra..

- Please read the constitution.

As General Secretary,

l have the right to..

nominate three members.

Excuse me.

Come, Sooraj.

Please place a chair

for him beside mine.

Please sit.

Respected Mr. Working President..

please caution Mr. Prithviraj that..

without the approval

of the core committee..

he shouldn't go around

announcing candidates.

And l propose..

that instead of Jeevan Kumar..

the party

candidate from Azad Nagar..

should be Sooraj Kumar.

Adjourned the meeting for now.

The new proposals will have

to be included in the agenda.

Hence, this meeting is

adjourned until further notice.

Take this.

l'm feeling

handicapped without Bhanu.

lt's becoming very

hard to rein in Veerendra.

He staked his claim to

Madhopur again today.

So? Let him contest.

C'mon, Uncle.. You know

that Madhopur is reserved..

..for the party president.

lf he wins from there,

he'll create havoc.

He can even lose.

Are you aware that

it is our safest seat?

Even if we nominate a dog

from there, it will win.

Brother, if the party can

make you win the election..

it can also make sure you lose.

Sure. But losing Madhopur

isn't good for the party.

Precisely!

lf he loses from there,

it'll finish his political career.

Moreover, you'll get sympathy

for giving up the seat.

That makes sense.

But your problem isn't Veerendra.

lt is Sooraj!

He has created a serious situation.

lf we give him Azad Nagar,

it boosts Veerendra's position.

But, if we don't,
