Sonali Cable Page #6

Synopsis: Sonali, a spunky self-made internet operator, proudly runs a small outfit along with her band of ghetto boys catering to a sprawling Mumbai suburb. Complications arise when Sonali's childhood sweetheart, Raghu returns from the United States and helps bring her small enterprise into the twenty first century. But not all forces of modernization are as kind and as loving as Raghu. SHINING INC, a huge corporation wants her out to complete their monopoly of Shining Broadband in the city. Sonali refuses... and it's war! This is a character driven, edgy survival drama of an ordinary girl, a sizzling love interest and her rag-tag family of internet cable technicians for whom Sonali Cable Centre is more than a livelihood... it's their home.

We are happy to help you.

Your call is important to us.

Sonali...

Their helpline doesn't help at all.

I get the same voice on every number.

"Press 1 for Hindi, Press 2 for English."

Nobody listens to us.

And then they ask me to

file a complaint online.

Your broadband was best.

Don't leave.

I can't help you.

I've lost everything.

The people of India and

the Shining Group are lovers.

And when a third person comes between us

it's just not very enjoyable.

Narayan Vaghela was born

in a small village where his mother...

supported the family

by making "Khakhras".

Mr. Vaghela believes...

It is... a love story, dear.

Love story.

Rosy.

A $2,500 drink for Madhavan, a $2,500 drink

for Bobby and a $2,500 drink for me.

To "all of" Mumbai!

And to Bobby's nose,

which is now "almost" a nose!

Hey B.D. So how did you become

such a computer whiz?

Sada. I was a hacker in Bangladesh.

I can break into any system

and wreak havoc.

You might come in handy someday.

Have you told Sonali?

Hell, no! I don't want any trouble.

I just want to lay low

and settle down with Jabbo.

And I don't want to lose friends like you.

You call yourself a friend?

Sonali? How did you find us?

Sada sent me.

Whom you abandoned.

He was like a brother to me.

But I got scared.

They're too big for us to take on.

B.D. If they are the big tree,

then we are a small axe.

B.D. Can you see me?

I worked like a dog for madam's party.

The stones I threw, the buses I burnt,

remember?

Come to the point.

The balls you have, to put

a hit out on my daughter!

Raghu is the one who was hit.

Thanks to Sonali.

Is that why Meena ma'am

wants her to marry her son?

Being sober doesn't suit you.

You're damn right!

Sonali, Raghu called.

He wants to help.

So he can betray me again?

I'll do anything for my brother.

If only he were alive...

Sada is alive, and very much

a part of our plan.

You'll have only ten minutes to

execute the plan. Hit 'em hard!

I'm with you on this. But you can do

this without breaking the law.

Have you ever seen an elephant

dance to an ant's tune?

Neither have I.

But I will tomorrow.

- Thanks B.D. see you soon.

- See you.

Excuse me.

Constable Sonali Tandel, Mumbai police.

Bomb squad.

Bomb squad?

Just a routine check.

She's one of ours.

Hello! Do you have an appointment?

- I have a bomb!

- What? Stop!

Hello, security.

Where's the girl?

A girl here?

Haven't seen one in ages.

Who the hell are you?

I'm Sonali Dattaram Tandel.

Tandel.

How'd you get up here?

I walked right in.

What do you want?

I am jobless, you took it away.

So I figured, I'd swing by and...

blow you up!

Sit down!

There's some time.

You sit.

You sit.

Have a seat.

I never imagined I'd even be

able to stand in front of you.

You were my hero once.

And now? A big Zero?

Lesser!

Just because you couldn't

control your business.

Just because you couldn't

control your greed.

Greed defines business.

Sorry Sir.

Customers define business.

You should know better.

What with this huge empire of yours.

But I can't blame you.

You're all about

one-night-stands.

Like those guys who hit on girls,

and tell them they love them.

And once they use them,

they won't even take their calls.

You get it, right, girl?

Your "love story" is similar.

Once the customer is in your bed,

what choice is he left with?

He keeps punching numbers

to a robotic voice.

And is forced to pay fat bills.

And what do you do about it?

You enjoy your Khakhras.

Go on kid. Let it all out.

I'll humor you.

Don't touch it!

Shining Khakhra. The only Khakhra

every Indian must eat.

Enjoy.

The other Khakhra is made by

an old woman in her home.

Like your mother used to.

And your point is?

That both, your mother and I just

wanted to earn a living.

We're the same person.

And you...

You finished me!

Think about it.

What does that make you?

What do you want?

Answer me!

What on earth do you want?

Everyone dances to your tune.

Now, it's your turn.

I'm the ant that'll make

you do the Disco.

This is for Sada.

Bobby you b.

You swindled millions from

Shining while buying Race Net.

If Vaghela finds out,

what will he do with you?

Zooni, Vaghela greenlit the hit on Sonali.

And this isn't his first hit. He's made

many such problems disappear.

Nobody can touch him. He's got cops

politicians and the media in his pocket.

But I have Vaghela in my pocket.

I have proof of all his illegal activities.

Bhau. If one fights back,

ten more will follow.

No Vaghela. I'll handle Sonali Tandel.

Enough of handling. Just kill her!

Bobby will take care of the money.

Long live Maharashtra.

So, this is your "bomb"?

Just a sparkler.

You'll hear the fireworks soon.

And I dare you

to put a hit out on me again.

Watch your back.

Because this video is already on YouTube.

- This is not true.

- Oh, it's not true?

Don't send your lap dogs

after me next time.

Step in the ring yourself.

I'm waiting.

You'll never have all of Mumbai

to yourself.

Hey kid! Wait up.

Work for me.

You'll control all of Mumbai.

Mumbai can control itself.

You better prepare for the lawsuits.

You've messed with the common man.

And he is very angry.

Don't touch her.

Let her go.

You let her walk in like she owns the place

and now you want to be heroes?

Morons!

This is the beginning of your end.

Out.

Get out.

Move.

Madhavan.

Sir.

This thing... You... Tube...

Yes, YouTube sir.

Buy it.

I've got a huge mortgage to pay.

So do I.

Which is why

I prefer playing defense.

Will I get blacklisted?

Arrested?

- Or...

- Anything can happen.

After all, it's a love story, dear.

Why did Mr. Vaghela want

to meet so urgently?

By the way nice tattoo.

What?

What's there to explain?

It's all in this file.

This will kick up quite a storm.

Do you think Sonali Tandel had a

hand in Meena Pawar's expose?

That b*tch and her drunk father.

They can't touch a hair on my head!

Looks like Sonali hit a nerve.

Shut up.

Hey you turn of the camera.

Otherwise I will break it.

Every common but fearless girl,

exposes corrupt politicians.

A video named Sonali leaks

goes viral on all social networks sites.

After Sonali Tandel's shocking expose

of Shining Corp's illegal activities...

the company's chairman Mr. Vaghela

was taken into police custody.

Shining Broadband's license

has now been suspended.

This comes as good news for small

entrepreneurs fighting corporate greed.

Any word from Raghu?

No news is best news.

Who's the rookie?

No idea. Jayyu brought him.

Without asking me?

He'll get us into deep sh*t again.

What the hell!

Who did you hire now?

You? What are you doing here?

Never question the "sword sharpener".

Dear Sonali.

Some connections never go offline.

Every well said sir.

- Let go.

- Look at me.

Do you believe me now?

I had no idea what Zooni was up to.

So what do you want now?

Same thing you do.

Partnership.

Fifty-fifty.

Will you marry me?
