Our power plant will

bring about change.

But one needs money

to make the plant.

Exactly! One needs

money to make the plant...

...not the plant to make money!

He is stealthily coming...

...home at midnight.

He has been passing...

...by my alley's daily.

The setting sun is

giving its colors to me.

No matter how many millions we

make, one day we will all be gone.

But the power plant and the

change it brings about will stay on.

The power plant is a thought.

Men die, but their

thoughts live forever!

What was the biggest and most

difficult decision of your life?

To kill my brother.

He loved me very much.

He could do anything for me.

I overlooked all his mistakes.

But the attack on dad...

I'm talking about change but

I couldn't change my brother.

For dad, it's all about the money.

He only thinks about money.

After my mom's

death we drifted apart.

He took me into his business...

...but he is more of

a boss than a father.

I'm very happy about

this power plant project.

I will work on my own terms.

I finally get to do what I want.

Shankar, that idiot Sanjay Somji

is provoking people against you.

Mr. Rao, what am I

hearing about Somji?

It is not that Somji

doesn't listen to me.

He takes me as his principaI.

But... I don't know what his

problem in this matter is.

You tell me...

Subhash, what can I do?

Sons are born to

disgrace their ancestors.

Forget these city fools!

They will make the land

of Thakarwadi go barren.

This power plant is a farce.

They will destroy your homes

to build the power plant...

...and then supply the

electricity to the city.

Shankar Nagre wants to cripple you!

Brothers and sisters!

It is time to be alert!

You want to cripple

or make him cripple?

Shankar Nagre wants to cripple you.

He wants us to sell our motherland.

He is using his

father's name to grab it.

Once you lose your land

where will you go looking for...

...Shankar and his fair lady?

We were poor and hungry because

of these people from the city.

If anybody tries to take away

our motherland away from us...

...we will crush them all!

We will not do anything else,

but we will chop them into pieces.

Down with Shankar Nagre...

Subhash Nagre is a thief!

Who said that?

Who said it?

Who is a thief?

Come out and say it on my face!

Sorry!

Let's go!

Sanjay Somji's anti

power plant demonstration...

...has taken a violent turn.

In many parts of

Maharashtra his supporters...

...have attacked Shankar Nagre's men,

torched cars and paralyzed traffic.

Somji has justified this violence.

RuraI Maharashtra that once

dreamt of peace and prosperity...

...has now turned into a

political battleground.

Qazi, Qazi!

Sarkar is going to be

struck by lightning now.

Kill him!

Just be careful that

you don't get a shock.

Current lights up lamps too!

You have not become CM

just to light lamps!

Deputy CM!

What difference does it make?

It's just a small difference.

All we need is ajack to

win this game of cards!

And who would that be?

Kantilal Vora!

Not Vohra, Vora!

Vora!

Vo... Vora.

Sarkar, this is my son,

Kalpesh Vora.

Kantilal Vohra!

Vora!

Vora!

I'm a very frank person.

Sarkar, I want this

power plant to be built...

...in Gujarat instead of Maharashtra.

Shares worth 50

million of Vohra industries.

Vora!

Sarkar tell your son not to be

so attached to this project...

So you are bribing me

to go against my son?

This is not a bribe.

A small token of our friendship!

Every father thinks

about his son's future...

You, me...

Greetings sister-in-law.

I'm Kantilal Vora.

And this is my son Kalpesh Vora.

Sarkar if this project...

Can we talk about something else?

Thanks.

Steamed rice balls? Curry?

That Somji is not ready to talk!

Let's break his head.

Once he is disgraced in public,

he will forget politics.

llliterate man!

Chandar, I want to meet Somji.

Shankar its useless

talking to the lousy uncouth!

Chandar! How many times

have I told you not to shout?

I believe he wants Maharashtra

to progress as much as I do.

But he is ignorant of the change

this project is going to bring...

...about that's why

he is opposing us.

I want to make him understand

the benefits of this project.

If he truly cares about the people's

welfare he will surely understand.

You just fix a meeting.

I visited the doctor...

After the check up,

she's asked for a blood test.

Why a blood test?

Avanti, what happened?

Nothing as yet, but it

will in seven months.

Why doesn't anyone

ever tell me anything?

Sorry uncle, the

doctor said there would...

...be a delay in knowing the results.

I thought I would tell

you once it's confirmed.

You are so short tempered.

Scolding her over

something so triviaI.

I am not...

Come here!

Chandar give me a

hundred rupee note.

Here...

And a rupee.

Give me your hand.

God bless you.

Have you thought of a name?

How does Laxmi sound for a girI?

It's a great name Sarkar!

What if it's a boy?

Ganesh!

Excellent!

The priest has said if it's a

boy we should name him Vishnu...

Where did I go wrong with Vishnu?

Sometimes our principles

become bigger than life itself.

I know, but the responsibility

was mine. I never meant to...

Kantilal Vora had come today.

I know.

Shankar, things are

not what they seem to be.

I know that too.

Shankar, that man...

Dad, I will handle it.

I know.

I'm having a small get-together...

...for the people

associated with this project.

You have to come with your family.

Yes.

Dad, I have no

regrets over what happened.

And neither should you.

We should forget brother Vishnu.

There are two rules in business.

First, never hate anyone.

And the second?

Love!

Two lovelorn souls

roam the city streets.

One doesn't plan for love,

it just happens!

Shankar is in love with power. He

is playing the hero of Thakarwadi.

You are my hero.

If it's so easy to be a hero,

why didn't you become one?

Monkeys create a

commotion in the state assembly.

People in India

don't want development...

...they want entertainment!

What does that mean?

What happened?

I have an excellent idea

to solve all our problems.

What is it?

What!?!

The idea has not taken shape yet!

Ask Somji to meet me.

- Yes.

Shankar!

A call from Sanjay Somji...

Hello. - Tell me! - Somji, I

have great regard for you.

If we have the same goaI then

why are we on opposite sides?

People are being misled...

They are becoming aware

of your true identity.

What is my true identity?

You are a fraud!

I feeI ashamed that people

like you are born in Maharashtra.

You are making false

promises to my people.

They are my people as well.

Just meet me once,

read the project report.

If you know nothing

about the project...

Listen. Can you switch

on the air-conditioner?

On what basis can

you say it's a loss?

The police have made

strict arrangements...

...to maintain law

and order in the city.

Where the police is being careful...
