Shahid Page #2
I was preparing for my
college's second year exam...
Shahid, you should study further
Tired?
No, no..
What?
I want to study
So what's stopping you?
The warden won't let me
I will talk to the warden
Now what's the problem?
Nothing, just..
Money?
I don't want to ask my family
I will pay your fees
No...
Fine. Sacrifice your education
for your silly self-respect
No. It's not that.
I will return the money
That's what I am saying.
Return it when you can
Yes. I will - This isn't charity.
It's a loan
There is a condition
You have to stop meeting
Omar and his donkeys
But I don't know anyone here
Why? You don't know us?
I do...
Ok, meet them on Sunday
Over a game of chess, only!
Don't get brainwashed
Nah.
You're too smart for them
Why don't you join the game?
He is a bright kid
No matter which country's history
you are reading..
..There's one thing you
should understand clearly.
It is not only about wars,
conquests and battlefields.
It's much more than that
...That it's difficult
to swim against the tide
But if you manage to do it...
You may find a shore
that nobody has ever seen
Make the most of this time, my friend
Study hard
You won't even realize
how time will fly
J ust study
but I'm still with you
I'll see you again
Thank you
It is obvious that principles
of natural justice have been..
Violated in the State
vls Shahid Azmi case.
Shahid is hereby
honorably acquitted..
And the court apologizes
to Shahid and his family..
For the inconvenience caused.
It takes time, but it works
Stop here.
This is home now. How is it?
We are on the first floor
Mother, the door bell
Answer it
Khalid.
He is all grown up now.
Mother, the milkman is here
Coming
Chandu, can't make yoghurt
from the milk these days
How are you?
I'm okay.
Where do you roam around all day?
Where do you go?
Looking for jobs.
Job? He wants to do a job
Brother, I want to study law
I've filled the form.
Why are you getting
involved with the law again?
This is what I want to do
If you want to study, then study
You can't study and
work simultaneously
Do one thing at a time
Mother, I will manage
Mother, my first salary.
You keep it son.
You will need it.
I have enough.- No mother, keep it.
Do well, my son.
Bless you.
What's for dinner?
What do you want?
Will you make Biryani?
Okay.
Is Arif home?
Yes.
I've got a job
Good
I would have to leave
the job that I'm doing..
$0?
..But they will pay less.
How much?
Rupees 1200 only
How will we manage?
No worries, I have a plan
I have a meeting with Mr. Menon
What time?
4 pm.
Please take a seat
Mr. Galaadari,
how long have you been working here?
7-8 years?
The judge will throw
this file on your face.
And all of you handle
civil cases, right?
Just like civil cases"
..that rot for years
in old dusty cupboards"
..your brains too have begun to rot.
Look at this pencil
Blunt and small like all of you
Nobody ever bothers to sharpen it!
Your English is pathetic
How can you be
practicing in High Court?
You guys deserve to
be in the Lower Courts
Get out of here!
Get out of here!
Where can I meet Gaffar?
I have come from Menon's office
Where is Menon?
He's busy
Who are you?
I'm Shahid
$0?
He can't come. He has sent me instead
Do you know who you are talking to?
Yes, I know
You have stolen 20 cars from Bombay.
While stealing your last car,
you also assaulted the owner.
He has lost an eye
Now whatever you have to say, tell me
Can we sit and talk?
I will speak to Menon, you go
Abdul, remember his face.
Maryam? - Yes
I'm Shahid, from Menon's office
Tell me
You have a hearing next week
So you are here for the fees?
No...
Sir asked me to...
I have seen enough lawyers
More than you can imagine
I can part with a percentage
after selling my property
Sir wanted the money
before the hearing
Please leave then
I said, leave..
I can talk to him if
you want...if you need..
Cases
Gaffar?
I met him, he's lying
I know
First he needs to trust you...
..then you will begin to trust him
It takes time
I know sir, but...
Police is right. he is guilty
I know
Then why are we defending him?
Because he is a client
It's an open and shut case.
If we know he is guilty, then..
You want me to teach
you law again?
What do we do first?
We collect the facts..
We collect the facts..
..Then we manipulate
and present it the way we want
The more you waste
your time on these books..
Son, you will lose
all cases that you fight
And witnesses?
Witnesses are all hostile now
All in the palm of my hand
What is this?
Sir, please appoint
someone else for this case.
You came to my office
begging for work
"I want to fight criminal cases!"
"I want to fight criminal cases!"
Nobody cherry picks
cases in my office
Get out
What's happening at your end?
I did not become a lawyer for money
I'm thinking of
starting my own practice
There is a little cost involved,
but not that much
I already have two loans to repay
Okay, I'll apply for another loan
Don't worry, start your practice.
When do you want to start?
I'll get the license tomorrow
Oh! So you applied already?
Hello, Maryam!
Maryam! This is Shahid, remember?
from Menon's office
Oh no, not for that
I have started my own practice
Have you hired another lawyer?
How do we manage the house expenses?
Please don't cry
Shahid?
I'm Maryam
Please wait
Don't worry,
case is in your favor
Please come
Sorry to keep you waiting
Tea or water?
Nothing, thank you
lnder!
Go get some water
And get some tea as well
Property dispute case, right?
Yes
Please tell me a
little about your case
My step mother has challenged
my father's will in the court
My father had left
me a house in Mumbai
She is now claiming it
Your step mother?
Is this the file?
I don't have anything
else apart from this house
Don't worry
This is your house
and it will remain yours
And your fees?
It's ok. Not that important
You must tell me
Whatever you feel is right
There is a thing in
our lawyer's code of ethics
What?
First we win the property
from your enemies..
..And then keep it for ourselves
Then you will have to hire another lawyer
to reclaim the property from us.
I've never heard of this before..
- It was a joke
Yes, mother.
I'm in office.
Yes, I am coming.
Greetings.
He is Zaheer's child.
He hasn't seen his father yet.
What's his name?
Asgar.
Asgar.
Asgar.
You're going to
meet your father soon.
Partition has caused loss to many.
Especially Muslims.
We're suffering in India
..Pakistan and in Bangladesh too.
Yes, we all are suffering
due to mistakes done by few.
What to do?
Well, remember I
told you about Zaheer.
The one who was accused
of Ghatkopar blasts? - Yes.
He's a software engineer.
