They just want huge vehicles to be checked

- Anything else, sir?

- Nothing

Looks like pressure is from a higher level

So we can't split now

What's the option?

Let's wait

We are stuck like a diabetic

who can't gorge on sweets!

Can't live it up

despite being a millionaire

What else to do?

Let's just remove a few notes and host a party

Why?

After we split up we won't see each other

Each to his own... way

Let's have a small party

I thought you are a popular comedian

But you are a Sam Anderson!!!

You want to

Let's do it

Dude... open the bottle

This is the Ambani clan

of 5-6 generation

Like the moon that waxes

we radiate happiness

If we ordered, won't money shower

not once but rain many times over?

To run ahead, our step-up ticket

in our life is the game cricket

All 9 planets are swell aligned

Our horoscope is well defined

Without playing... clean sweep story

Without wilting... grand slam victory

With ease we scored runs easily

We won 'hand over fist' effortlessly

This is the Ambani pedigree

...that expresses delight

like the earth's satellite!

If we ordered, won't money shower

not once but rain many times over?

My 'heart cooler' from Madurai!

If you agree to roll in the hay, quickly

like a bee I'll feast on the flower, quicky!

Even to Lord Balaji

we'll lend money

Even Heaven's banker Kubera

compared to us, will be Kusela

'Peanuts'is Kubera's entire treasure

Compared to us, he can't measure

Within us rises a blazing temperature

You caused love-sickness to rupture

Spread me your delicious feast

Don't protest if I start to eat!

Whether Rama or Ravana is the king

I am least bothered about anything

I am the sole king of my mind and soul

Go on a spree, buy gold without control

Whatever you need I'll bestow

Ask... whatever your wish or vow

Why did you sing these lines so unconnected?

Don't know why? What magic this is?!

Listen to me!

If we are drunk and seeing double

only our Maestro's songs come to my mind

Our 'head' is on a high

Friend, fish to survive needs water

Buddy, all I need is a pitcher!

Wind seems to favor our way

Endorsing us forever and today

I'll sieve the grain while the wind blows

I'll fine-tune to the wind-vane's pose!

If I'm drunk as a skunk, I stagger

From my chosen path my feet won't wander

My songs are exclusively unique

My route is always a winning streak

Who I am, what I do, you'll know

I'll be 'talk of the town' tomorrow

This is the Ambani clan

of 5-6 generation

Like the moon that waxes

we radiate happiness

If we ordered, won't money shower

not once but rain many times over?

To run ahead, our step-up ticket

in our life is the game cricket

All 9 planets are swell aligned

Our horoscope is well defined

Without playing... clean sweep story

Without wilting... grand slam victory

With ease we scored runs easily

We won 'hand over fist' effortlessly

Are you home?

Why haven't you slept as yet?

- Do you want to eat?

- I ate... you sleep

Are you mad I came home late?

I won't, here after

This has become a habit

You don't talk to me properly these days

Suchi, few more days

Then we'll go abroad

I swear

We will live in a style

better than your wildest dreams

Do you really mean what you say?

Don't tell anyone

From tomorrow we start a new life

Don't lie just to pacify me

Why should I?

Money, new house, business

Everything's ready

Alagesh my friend in London

has sponsored our visa

Just a few days

You are my whole life

You should never cry again

Suchi, don't cry like a baby

Yes, Ganesh

Where are you?

Where's the money?

I don't know

I swear

Why are you torturing him this way?

That too, our boy

I know everything

You rejoiced that we have lost money?

You danced all night?

Leisure bar Mahat insisted I should

join their birthday party

I refused, they forced me

to join his birthday party

I am hunting high and low for the cash

I have given guarantee, that's missing

You are painting the town red

No

Who else danced with him?

Didn't notice, sir

I saw Sub-inspector Ganesh

I think he is guilty

I also went in search of money

I really don't know

When Faizal was bringing you here

why did you try to escape?

Kill him

Whom do you work for?

Chetan bai? Nasser?

Did they agree to give you a cut-in?

I treated you like my son, worthless wastrel!

Believe me

I don't know about the money

I went in search of the money

Don't let him go

Tell me

Your job is done

You will get your money in 2 hours time

Don't worry

Tell us

Who has the money?

I swear I don't know

Tell me

- Untie me

- Run... run

Don't let him go

Grab him

Start the car

- I'm glad my dad likes you very much

- Very soon we can...

Why did you betray me, my friend?

You became my sins I can't defend

In any city, far or near, in my view

there's no actor better than you

Who is Hyde the evil?

Who is Dr Jekyll?

Love happens, without influence

of its own accord

Whether sacred river or a mere mirage

what use is a delayed halo-record?!

My love, please realize

love is a royal dream

My quest for true love did not

fall into my color scheme

With a bangled-hand clasp

I fell for your trap

Led by your right hand

to take our vows I'd planned

I penned a poetry of intimacy

with accuracy

Why was it a total catastrophe

my love from A to Zee?

Because of you, my endless tears

cascade from my eyes as souvenirs

Is this fair to treat me this way?

Why wound my heart to just decay?

You tore our love's masterpiece

in your frame of mind

Has only 6 faces Muruga the deity

Is each of a different color or kind?

Why did you forsake me, my friend?

Call Prem

Ask him to come with Mahat

to the hide-out where the money is

Prem, come with Mahat to our hide-out

Do what I say

My friend, no one can be 100% sure

if love can forfeit to defeat or conquer

As our love is torn beyond repair

'this too will pass'so why despair?

Ganesh, boys aren't here?

Call them

- Not reachable

- Keep trying

Can't get through

Break the lock

Alarm will alert them

Alarmed they will be here in a jiffy

Not a bloody sound!

Gone

It's all over

- Where's the goddamn money?

- How will I know?

To our dear Chennai city

To our captain Dhoni

Why did you go out of the way

to save these idiots?!

Don't put on an act

Where's the money?

Let him go

You want to shoot me?

Shoot

Why are you hesitating?

You thought of doing away with me

while sharing the spoils?

Drop your gun

My foot I will!

Whom are you trying to cheat?

I won't

Me?

I swear we don't know

He also came in between like you

It's a lie!

Your plan

Yourtransport

Your place

Morons!!

Call those scum-bags in

I don't know

Call them

You are terrified?

What does it matterto you

if you use the money or lose it?

But I need that money

Call right now

Pick up your phone

On the dot!

Your friends have a long life line!

Answer that call

Not them

Call them

Don't look at me innocently

Tell me where the money is
