Sorry, sir. Sir, I did not answer your call the other day.
I don't want to know.
- Sir, please... - No, I don't want to know anything.
I had a personal problem, paaji. I fell ill.
I didn't know what to do.
The fact is I was an idiot.
Since my girlfriend left me...
If it was your personal problem,
you should have kept it personal.
Why did you destroy my business?
I called you so many times.
You couldn't answer one call?
I'm not your father,
to whom you can apologize and all will be forgiven.
Hand in your I-card.
Please give me one more chance, paaji. I will make everything okay.
I've been giving you chances for the past three months. What has changed?
Everything will be okay, paaji. I am telling you genuinely.
I won't make any more mistakes. I will come on time
and I won't even take lunch breaks. I will do everything you say.
- I won't give you any cause for complaint. - Hey!
Leave me alone!
Sorry, paaji.
Paaji, you ask me what has changed.
My perception has changed.
After getting kicked around, I realized
that people who take their jobs for granted,
life starts to take them for granted.
When I came here before,
all day I would wonder when the day will end
and when I will go home.
But with great difficulty I realized, paaji,
that nobody is as loyal to you as your job.
So much so, one only asks about what one does after from your name.
And based on that, people decide how much respect you deserve to get.
Paaji, I spent numerous hours over here
but I didn't apply my mind even for one hour.
If you give me one more chance,
I promise I will work diligently.
Please, paaji.
- Vipin. - Yes, paaji.
How many items do we have left of Elite-Book?
We have three left.
These will be returned to the seller this evening.
Yes.
Bring in customers and sell them before they are returned.
I will sell them, paaji.
You... You...
Trust me. I will really sell them.
And listen, you will not sell them to my customers.
No, I...
- Bring your own. - Okay.
I'd like to ensure, you aren't all talk and no action.
Paaji, I will. I will, paaji.
Just wait and watch, paaji.
Thank you.
Hello.
What is this form that you have sent?
What kind of surgery is this
for which the hospital refuses to take responsibility?
The doctor mentioned something about the blood pressure, bhaiya.
I am truly confused.
Let me talk to the doctor.
Uncle forbade me, bhaiya,
because your shoot is going on.
Where is the doctor? Let me talk to him!
He is due any minute. Just 30 minutes ago...
He's here.
I'll call you back.
No, no. Listen. Listen to me. Leave the phone on.
I want to hear what the doctor has to say. Keep the phone on.
What if uncle finds out?
Listen, if you hang up,
I shall tell papa that you've kept me updated.
Leave the phone on.
Okay.
Sir, you never had any blood pressure problems before.
How come it is increasing?
What are you afraid of?
I don't want to be operated on.
Find another way.
I can't do this.
There is no other way.
We have the best surgeon of Delhi.
We have the latest machines.
You won't even get a scratch.
Don't you understand?
I don't want to talk about the surgery.
I will take as many medicines as you prescribe.
That's it.
Sir, I didn't want to tell you this
but I have no one else to tell.
You could get paralyzed
if you don't get this surgery.
Really? I will get paralyzed?
No way will I get paralyzed.
Okay. I'll directly speak to Kamlesh.
Listen. Listen.
Why do you want to bother him?
His shoot is on.
Okay.
I'll let you operate on me.
You will need to lower your BP.
All right.
Send your counselor.
I shall talk to him.
Kamlesh?
Sir wants to talk to you.
Okay, I shall send the counselor.
Be brave.
- Okay? - Okay.
Good!
Are you crazy?
People remain junior artists for 10 years at a stretch,
whereas you are getting an opportunity within three months.
Sneha recommended you.
That's why I pushed for you.
I was ready to go.
You guys suddenly came up with the Thailand schedule.
Everything is not in my hands.
The schedule is made as per the lead actor's dates.
Tell me the truth.
Do you want more money?
I will talk to the producer.
It's not about money, sir.
My father is alone. How will he manage?
He needs me now.
- In Delhi, right? - Yes, sir.
I will send ten boys there.
They will stay with him all day and take care of him.
Why would other boys go, sir?
His own son should go.
Okay. Leave.
Stay with him all day and take care of him.
Tomorrow you leave for Thailand from Delhi.
- Okay. One more artist will join you. - Hmm.
Come with him.
Okay, sir.
Your dad will be fine.
Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.
All right.
'I'm doing everything in my power to repay the loan,
so I don't default,
however I will surely be called the father of a gambler!'
'You are not doing this for us.'
'You are doing this because the shortcomings of this family
make you look weak in the presence of outsiders.'
'The maximum jail time is three months
and if they you money, not even that.'
Which one of you is Chaitanya Sharma?
Sir, I've been trying to explain it to you.
I keep repeating myself but you don't understand.
I only made small bets on cricket. Nothing more.
I didn't even know any of them until two months back.
The financial condition of my family was very bad, so...
I didn't even have money of my own, sir.
I gambled with their money.
I am telling you the truth, sir.
Please believe me. Please trust me.
I have absolutely nothing to do with drugs, sir.
I know. I know.
Rocky is behind it.
Yes, sir. Please, sir.
But, you're the one who got caught though.
And I have to file the charge sheet.
I have to put a name on it
and your name will go on it.
This is wrong, sir.
So, you do the right thing?
How much will it cost?
Ramesh.
- Take him for a cup of tea. - Yes, sir.
- Make sure it's strong. - Yes, sir.
The poor chap has got himself in trouble.
Let's go.
It will cost you 10 lakhs.
You want to make a call?
'The number you have dialled is currently busy.
Please try again later.'
The person you're calling isn't answering anyone's calls.
You want to try calling your family?
They will answer.
Sir...
This...
We'll come back later. Let's go, son.
- Hi, sir. - Hi.
My name is Rohan. I am from Nebula.
We don't want to buy anything right now. Please.
Sir, I just wanted to tell you I can get you a better price
for any laptop you choose here.
I said I don't want anything right now. We will think about it later.
When, sir?
His session will start now.
The other kids will progress.
He's the one who will lose out.
Welcome, sir.
Please, sir.
This side, sir.
Sir, this is the range of laptops of our company.
This is the laptop I'll suggest for you.
Touch screen, 120 fps, graphic card rtx 4060.
Do this breathing exercise I showed you.
It is a very minor surgery.
You won't even know with the anaesthesia.
Okay, now lie down.
Bhaiya?
You're back?
Yes, I'm back.
How are you?
Lie down comfortably. Why are you getting up?
Sit. Sit. Sit.
His blood pressure has improved considerably.
I hope you're here for a few days.
No, sir. I have to leave.
The shoot can't be postponed, sir.
I have to go.
Oh!
No problem.
We will manage.
Just don't tell him.
So, Mr. Rajinder. How are you feeling?
You poked me with such a big needle and you're asking me how I feel?
That pain will be gone shortly.
Your son is with you.
Tell me something about him?
Was he mischievous when he was a kid?
He was a menace when he was a kid.
When I'd come home
from the shop in the evening,
he would wrestle with me.
He would make that move.. those things that are fed to dogs.
- What? - Pedigree.
I see.
The 'Dara' of Delhi would lose to his son daily.
I hope you aren't afraid now.
He is here now.
I fear nothing at all.
I have no reason to worry now.
We shall deal with what happens.
He agreed to buy the laptop worth 85000 at first.
After coming here, he insists on getting one worth one lakh rupees.
All you salesmen are the same.
No, sir. It's not that.
I understand you must have a budget but...
Dad, this laptop is the best.
- Please buy it. - I know.
You think everything everywhere is the best.
Sir, if you don't mind me asking, how old is he?
15 years old.
15.
Sir, when I was his age,
my dad bought me a bat.
I guess it was a 1000 rupees more than the normal range.
But I remember it even today. Kashmir Willow.
Sir, he will be pleased even with a cheaper laptop too,
but if you buy him what his heart is set on,
all his life he will tell people
my dad always bought me the best.
If you can afford it, sir,
15000 is a very small amount
for the story of his life.
I am not trying to make a sale. I am being genuine.
If you still have doubts,
I can show you laptops in a lesser range too.
That's not a problem at all.
No, it's okay. Pack this.
Very good decision, sir. Very good decision.
I will give you a 30 percent discount on the mouse and a gaming keyboard.
Thank you.
- Vipin. - Yes.
Please help here.
Please bill for a fresh piece of Elite-Book for the gentleman.
Sure.
- This way, sir. - Yes.
Thank you so much, sir. Please go with him.
This way, sir.
Hemant Pandey sir?
Not Pandey.
Call me Pandey ji.
Come, come. Hop in.
Let's go, driver.
- Hello, sir. - Hello. Hello. Hello.
What role are you playing?
Of your son, sir.
Oh! Very good! Good.
I have to say I look like I could be your father.
When I first came in the industry,
people called me Paintal's son.
May I say something, sir?
- I am a big fan of yours, sir. - Thank you.
As a kid, when people called me Kammo,
I used to tell them to call me 'Kammo ji'.
I have watched all your movies, sir.
I never imagined I would be seated next to you someday, sir.
Thank you.
But, sir, why did you disappear for a while in between?
- None of your films were released. - They were.
I guess you didn't see them.
- Which ones, sir? - Several films.
Six X, Be Careful,
Mausam Ikraar Ke, Do Pal Pyaar Ke,
Prakash Electronic, and Chal Guru Ho Ja Shuru.
Lead role.
In fact, a couple of heroines worked with Shahrukh
and then they worked with me and then they didn't work at all.
But, sir, all those were B-grade films.
Who doesn't want to work in A-grade films?
If one gets a role in it.
In the beginning, I used to act stubborn.
I have done two movies with Hrithik Roshan.
Why should I do this work? Why should I do this?
This is all a maze.
I have to run my home too.
Honestly speaking,
I treat this profession like a job.
It might be a B-grade film to the world
but my home runs on it.
I pay the children's school fees with it.
My elder son is studying engineering in Chandigarh.
The younger one is studying in Mumbai.
My wife is happy. And my parents are happy.
Responsibility is important.
- And passion? - Passion, my foot?
What passion?
We actors are greedy.
We hope that the world will look at us and recognize us
and ask for our autograph when we do one film.
Receiving love from one close person is better
than receiving love from the world.
What you obtain is sufficient.
- What's the matter? - Nothing, sir.
There's a traffic jam. Will we make it to the airport or not?
Huh, driver?
Do you think we might miss the flight?
Chatty hasn't come home in a week, bhaiya,
and he isn't answering calls either.
Do you know anything?
Stop worrying. Let me make a call.
Hello, Bunty. How are you doing?
This is Sandy.
Hi.
A parcel had come, right?
Yes, there is a parcel.
Come in. I was about to eat. Join me.
No, I just came to collect the parcel. I'll leave
Come on in, Ishita.
Come on.
So, what's new?
What are your future plans?
- I got that job. - Oh, nice!
- The assistant manager one. - Wonderful!
The posting is in Bangalore.
Wow! In Bangalore? Nice.
I have a friend over there in Koramangala.
Let me know if you need any help.
- How are things with you? - Huh?
Work? Life?
Everything is the same with me.
I go to the showroom.
But I've started getting commissions now,
so it's a little better.
I'll be right back.
- No, I... - It's okay.
- I'll keep it. - Sit.
I'll do it.
Thanks.
Let it be, Rohan. Do it later.
No, it's okay.
If you do it immediately, the house doesn't get messy.
Oh, I have to give you your parcel.
Hold on. I'll just get it.
Yes, bhaiya. I'm coming.
Coming. Coming.
Thank you.
I didn't open it.
Really?
I left the keys on the table.
Okay.
- Should I carry it downstairs? - No.
Rohan.
I'm sorry.
- I went overboard the other day. - No...
It's okay. I mean it.
Just take care of yourself.
- I'm sorry. - It's okay.
What is this?
I suddenly left the house
The whole financial burden shifted on you.
We rented the house together.
Yes.
But you aren't here now.
So, this is not necessary.
- Please keep it, Ronny. - Oh!
Keep it for my sake. Please.
I feel guilty.
- Guilty about what? - Guilty about many things.
Ronny, I wish I had it in me
to choose us
over my aspirations but I couldn't do it.
You know, people are saying I used you.
I was with you till the time I needed you
and when I didn't need you anymore, I rejected you,
like I'm some sort of a...
Like I'm some sort of a gold digger.
I'm sorry.
You are a gold digger.
But you aren't alone.
All of us are gold diggers.
And there's nothing wrong with that.
The crucial lesson I learned
when I left home is that money is important.
It is what it is.
Money probably can't make everything right
but if one doesn't have money,
nothing can be right.
I mean, look at us.
We loved each other. I hope?!
I mean, that's why we moved in together.
So what happened? I mean,
love brought us into a house but love couldn't run our home.
Look, don't feel guilty.
How?
You didn't reject me.
You selected your own happiness.
And... and you deserve it.
According to me, you deserve everything...
All the happiness in the world.
But... if I take this cheque today,
I might not become a deserving man.
You...
Please take this.
Please.
Please take care of yourself.
I'm sorry.
Bye.
One.
Two.
Mummy, let's go. The auto is here. Get up, dad.
I'm not going anywhere.
- Why? - What is he saying?
Chatty is in jail, dad.
You're running away again. As always.
Chatty knew this would happen.
That's why he didn't call despite being in jail for the past week.
He made a mistake!
Leave him alone, mom. Let's go.
He was not worthless.
His posting was pending.
He was hounding him to repay his loan.
You are a coward!
His failure is consuming him.
That's why he looks for respect in the society.
Who's run the home until now?
Who's run the house since the time they were born?
Who managed their education and living expenses?
All you did was bear the expenses.
You didn't fulfil your duty.
Let's go, Chetna.
We will manage.
- Please listen to me, sir. - Let's go.
What happened? Is he okay?
He's been framed in a drug case.
They are demanding 10 lakh rupees in two days.
- How much? - Ten lakhs.
Couldn't you call us?
Don't worry. We will manage something.
We will get hold of the money. Don't worry.
We will do something to get you out of here.
Don't worry, aunty. It will be done.
Nobody is to do anything.
I made a mistake. I will deal with it.
And what about us? Will we remain unaffected?
When you stay here?
Will you like it when people tell you that you have a criminal in your house?
Now, you're thinking of other people?
It's not just about other people, mummy.
How will I face dad?
And he knows this.
That's why he didn't come.
Bhai, it's okay. Calm down.
We will manage something. We will.
How can they demand 10 lakh rupees? They are being ridiculous!
Did you talk to your dad?
No, no. Are you crazy? He underwent a surgery recently.
He bore heavy expenses. I can't talk to him right now.
Mummy isn't eating.
Don't sweat it.
I had received money for the ad I did
and I got some money from the shop.
I have about 45000 in all.
Talk to them. If something can be worked out.
And I have about 12000-15000 rupees.
I was collecting money to repay my brother's loan but...
he has been telling me off since I was a kid.
I'll let him tell me off a little longer.
I too have saved about 25000 rupees.
Let's add this too.
That's 25000 and 12000 of mine. How much did you pitch in?
- 45000. - 45000.
- What's the total? It's... - Bhaiya.
What is this?
Even I had saved up some money.
Sonu, my man!
We are still short of some nine lakhs plus.
How will we scrape up that much in two days?
We will do what we've always done.
Call everyone you know.
What are you waiting for?
Do it. We have time now. We won't find the time later. Hurry.
Yes. Yes.
- Deepak... - Yes.
- Listen, I need money. - Chatty...
- Yes, please do something. - I will give that to you... -Hello?
- Yes, I need 10000. - If you could pitch in.
What is this great need, Kammo bhai?
That you are returning things at half the rate.
I am in urgent need of money.
There you go.
- Did he answer? - No.
He isn't answering.
He didn't agree.
He says he can't do anything until he gets the full payment.
And did he send the report?
He hasn't sent it as yet but he says he will send it tonight.
Mummy, we will manage something.
Aunty. Listen, aunty. aunty.
Please don't cry. Stop worrying.
I will sell my father's shop if needed, but we'll bring Chatty back today.
- We will manage something. - That's right, aunty.
We'll do it, aunty. We'll find a way.
Please don't cry. If you cry...
- Bhai, this... - Yes, it's all there.
Go and give it.
Where did you get so much money from, bhaiya?
You are only free of the drugs case.
The gambling case is still pending.
You better be present here,
when you're summoned to the station.
Yes, sir.
Come along. Come.
Jai Hind, sir.
Bhai.
Where did you get the money from?
Uncle got it.
And where did he get the money from?
Bhai.
People still respect your father.
Come.
It's all good. Come.
Come on. Come on.
Ronny.
Uncle!
Shivi. My baby!
- How are you? - I'm good.
What is that behind your ear?
Smarty. Look.
How did the chocolate come out?
I keep it behind the ears.
So, are you back from Bangalore?
Yes, I missed you very much, so I came back early.
- Shivi. - Yes, mom.
- Go and play inside. - Okay.
Sit. Have some food.
I need to speak with you, bhaiya.
I have something to say.
Let's eat first. We can talk later.
Eat.
I'll bring some water.
- Sorry, bhaiya. - Hush.
Come back, man.
I guess you left all your clothes there.
Don't bother going there.
Look.
You will be able to manage with this.
The rest you can buy of your own choice.
Medium size fits you, right?
No.
We still have a long battle ahead of us.
But we won't fight amongst ourselves.
We will fight the world, side by side.
Yes.
Are you going to finish the entire crate today?
I am not alone.
There are two others too.
Why are you saying all this? I work hard now.
Really?
You're showing off your work now?
Okay then, I shall open the shutter of the shop tomorrow.
I won't even let you touch it.
Stay right there and get rest.
And if you talk nonsense, I'll run away.
Then, you'll keep crying.
This time you will get a heart attack.
I know now how much you love me.
I will take advantage of this fact!
Really?
Try taking advantage of it.
- I shall will all my property to Sonu. - Go ahead.
And 80 yard shop is not considered property.
Go. Go.
Yay! Oh no!
Kammo is right.
Our boys are unworthy of playing with the boys from B-block.
They are battling each other.
- Take this, brother. - Kammo, come here.
What do you think?
Will we get a wicket on the next ball?
I think we will.
Even I think we will.
What do you say?
Shall I bet on it?
Bet on it.
Chatty bhai, what are the odds?
Why you!
"One cherry mocha frappe for Rishta."
Your cherry left as soon as she got a chance, scoundrel!
Stop it! Why are you laughing?
The flour ad you did,
sell that at your shop.
Posters have been put up but only at your own shop.
Buy this one, aunty. This one is better.
Why, son? This one has my photo on it.
Stop. Enough already.
It wasn't that funny anyway.
The acting line is trivial for me, man.
It is superfluous work.
I am thinking of becoming an influencer.
You laugh at my idiosyncrasies.
Who knows? The world might laugh too.
A man needs to think. Restart.
One can't continue selling laptops in a shop or become a criminal.
Who are you to talk?
Talk to me when you earn more money than Sonu.
In any case, we did what we did to gather money for our criminal bhai.
What's will all this 'criminal bhai' nonsense?
I shall shove a rod up your ass if you call me a criminal again.
You will cry.
Why are you getting offended, Chatty bhai?
We are only kidding.
- We are kidding, bhai. - Yes, we are kidding.
- In fact, we are praising you. - We are praising you.
You're the first guy to go to jail.
The whole neighbourhood is talking about you.
Chatty bhai went to jail.
I would suggest you start a business on it.
Money will pour in.
This! I want to earn money.
I want to earn lots of money, bhai.
I have realized that money is the most important thing in life.
Money means nothing, bhai.
You can only sleep peacefully if you have earned respect.
Both of you, listen to me. The most important thing is family.
Will you shove the money up your rear end if you don't have a family?
There isn't enough space in the rear end to shove money.
People have crammed it with unsolicited advice.
Brother, don't you feel like
we've discussed all this before?
It doesn't feel that way. It has happened.
The same terrace,
the same rogue friends and the same cheap alcohol.
Cheers, fuckers!
- Cheers, fuckers! - Cheers, fuckers!
Can I tell you something?
Tell us.
There was a monk very long ago.
An accomplished monk.
Famous. Very famous.
He sold his Ferrari.
And he got Rihanna too.
Not Rihanna. Nirvana.
Understand my sentiments. Why does he latch onto my words?
- Continue. - Don't go on the words.
- Sorry, bhai. - Continue.
So, one fine day a journalist asked him,
"What did you do before you attained nirvana?"
He said, "I used to go to the jungle, chop wood
and pull water out of the well."
The journalist asked him, "What do you do now?"
The monk said,
"I still go to the jungle,
I still chop wood
and I still pull water out of the well."
The journalist got confused.
He asked, "So what has changed?"
"What is the change?"
Then the old monk said,
"I have changed."
"Everything else is the same.
The same life, the same tribulations,
the same problems, the same home and the same work,
everything is the same."
"But I don't get irritated with the things
that annoyed me before."
"Everything appears to be necessary now."
"Everything feels good."
Hey bhai!
Uncle, give us the ball. Please.
- You want the ball? - Yes.
You'll get it on one condition.
- What? - Will you let us play?
Yes! Come, join us!
