What do you mean?

- You are busted, Mr Vijay.

You took a bribe from this man.

I didn't! Explain Gangu.

- He only reported against you, sir.

It wasn't a false report either.

You saw it for yourselves.

What a strange coincidence.

You're the only one who believes me.

But being a public prosecutor,

you've to fight against me...

No! He resigned yesterday.

- Left his job?

For my sake?

- No. Not really.

Thought I'd start a

private practice now.

You haven't spoken to Mala yet.

Come, dear. We'll be outside.

Will you do me a favour?

- Yes?

Please don't come and see me here.

All of you.

I don't like it. I feel very tense.

You...

- Time up.

Go.

Go on, Mala.

Dhansukh here, sir. Righto.

Very well, sir.

Where's Gangu?

- I don't know.

I asked where's Gangu?

- I really don't know.

You devil's disciple!

Come here.

Come here!

Where is Gangu?

- Room No. 12.

Khan? You?

You lied about the inspector?

- I didn't do anything.

You falsely testified against him?

- Khan sahib...

They gave me 3,000.

- Today is the last hearing.

You'll go to the court

and speak the truth.

Swine! You'll go to the court

and tell them the truth!

If I do that they'll kill me.

- And if you lie, I'll kill you here!

Then what shall I do?

- Tell the Court the truth.

I will.

According to the witnesses and

the proofs presented to the court...

the court finds the accused

guilty of accepting bribe.

And for this, he's sentenced to

6 months in jail and fined 5,000!

If the fine is not paid, the jail

term will be increased by 1 month.

You know Vijay has to pay

a fine of Rs. 5,000.

If it's not paid, his jail

term will increase by 1 month.

His brother doesn't have a job

I know how they're pulling on.

Don't make me feel small.

I'll see that the money is paid.

No! I don't wish you to

bear all the burden.

I've a little saved up

when I used to work.

Rs 221 and some ornaments.

- I told you.

Don't make me feel petty.

You'll get the money. Go now.

Greetings, sir.

- Sher Khan! Come and sit.

What's the matter? Not seen you

for ages. And why are you here?

I...

Yes, go on.

- I need some money.

Then have I refused you?

How much do you need?

5,000.

- Really? Well, never mind.

Tolaram, see how much

we have in the safe.

You know market procedures.

Don't think we don't trust you.

This is a business method.

Got anything as security?

I've nothing to keep as security.

Oh dear...

- Yes. I do have one thing.

If you value its true cost.

- Who'll value it correctly than me?

Tell me, what is it?

- A hair from my moustache!

Oh come on. I can make out

a dud coin and an honest man.

Tolaram! Give him 5,000, will you?

- Right away.

Here you are.

- But, what of the interest?

Interest?

- Let that come with the principal.

I'll never forget this gesture, sir.

I had come to take a loan,

but instead, you bought me!

Here, count it.

- Now I'll count the days...

To pay back your loan.

"Why have You ruined the destiny

You built for me?"

"My destiny..."

"Lord Almighty"

"If You did not want it to happen..."

"why did our love blossom?"

"Why did You show me dreams

of Spring?"

"You gave me hope,

You gave me my love..."

"and ruined my destiny..."

"O Lord"

"Why have You ruined the destiny

You built for me?"

"If man has sinned,

he is a sinner"

"You have sinned too..."

"how am I to call

you my Saviour?"

"You showed me the way,

You brought me to the path..."

"and ruined my destiny..."

"O Lord"

"Why have You ruined the destiny

You built for me?"

"O Lord"

How are you Sher Khan?

- God has been kind. How are you?

Mala, how is my brother and his wife?

- Fine. Come, sit in the jeep.

We'll go and meet them.

- No, Sher Khan.

I've to meet somebody.

I'll meet you all later.

Let him go! I know where he's going.

Let's go... come.

It's that inspector.

- Sit! He has lost his job now.

Let me talk to the gentleman.

Come on, sir. It'll bring you luck.

Either try your luck or push off.

Why are you spoiling my trade?

I lost my cool a bit, sir.

I'm really broke today.

Vijay here, Teja.

I've come out.

- Want me to send you in again?

I wish to see you.

- Come on over.

Who called?

- Just somebody wasting time.

That inspector's come out.

Just keep tabs on him.

I'm here, Teja.

I don't attack from behind

like some cowards do.

I've come to tell you,

that I'll finish you!

Go ahead. Why wait?

I'm right in front of you.

Not so easily, Teja.

I spent 6 months in jail

because of you.

There, I remembered you

every day; Every moment in fact.

But now, for the next 6 months,

every moment of every hour...

you'll look over your shoulder.

And then...

- You can't do anything!

You've lost your job as a lawman.

Why not join me?

It's a promise. I'll make

it really big for you.

And I promise you, that I'll

snuff life out of you!

Don't bite more than you can chew!

If I want...

my men can finish you...

like this!

Before leaving let me tell you this.

After today tell your men...

to be close to you because

your short sight is weak.

And secondly,

to smoke while eating...

is a very bad habit!

Tell Teja that a couple of broken

sofas of his, are in my bathroom.

Ask him to collect them.

- Who's speaking?

He knows.

Where are you going?

- The same place.

Where I lived before I met you.

- Why?

If I stay here, I'll dream. And

I can't sit and see them being broken

No dream of yours

will be broken Mala.

I promise you...

- No! Don't make any promises.

You're not helpless, anymore.

You don't need me.

I thought, the world has

scarred you badly.

It has hurt you hundreds of times.

But when you come out of jail,

I'd heal those wounds with my love.

I'll free you from bitterness.

But you never came out of it.

Even today you're shut in a jail

of hatred where you see one thing...

Understand just one thing.

Revenge, and nothing else!

You've so much hatred

for some people...

that there's no place for

love in your heart.

I know the consequence of

the game you've chosen to play.

I can't go on watching...

It's better that I leave this house.

Don't! Don't go, Mala.

I promise to forget them all.

I'm always ready to

shake hands in friendship.

Put that hand away Teja.

And remember one thing.

If I don't consider you as a foe...

it's not because I'm scared,

but because of personal reasons.

I won't embarrass you and ask,

what those personal things are.

But I'll tell my men today,

that they're not to consider you...

even a foe, if not a friend. Okay?

- Okay.

And tell them this too, that,

your life is no longer in danger.

My life, indeed!

Do you trust this venomous snake?

Let's go home.

- Okay.

What did he say?

- Said "You forget me...

and I'll forget you".

- I see.

I don't know about Vijay...

But I never forget!

Honestly, I'm not scared

of anybody but myself.

If I stay here, I'll remember

everything once again.

I have decided that

we'll go somewhere far away.

We'll start a new life

in some new place.
