Cheers.
Ready? Go.
I'm on top of the world! Enough!
No, baby, one more, one more, please.
Harpreet. You too passed.
My buddy, Bunty. Congrats. I'll get you a drink.
Sai, do something.
It's your party and the DJ is leaving.
What's is this?
Nonsense. Give him some more money.
Tell him, don't stop now. The party's warming up.
I just did that, he won't take my money.
He says it's past 2 am, and he has to wake up early.
-It is past 2 am. -An early riser? Why become a DJ?
Let me talk to him.
If he doesn't want money it must be something serious. Leave it.
Hey, Prince Charles. Not everyone is motivated by money.
How else are they motivated?
Ever heard of persuasion?
A B-Com degree with 39% won't get you far.
I keep telling him to apply for the CAT exam, but in vain.
Life is not all fun and games.
Okay, grandpa.
Wow, what did you do?
A little conversation, a little persuasion a little negotiation.
Done with your negotiation? Can we talk about something worthwhile?
What else is up with you?
Not me. I'm talking about your work.
I'm starting with my dad's law firm, I'm fine. What about you?
Why? What about me?
He graduated, isn't that enough?
You won't take the CAT exam?
If my grandfather were rich like yours, I would've taken the exam.
What will you do, then?
S-a-l-e-s.
What? You'll be a salesman?
Why? Aren't salesmen humans?
Of course, they are. But not very rich humans.
Hey buddy, do you remember Randy Bahadur, from arts?
He is a salesman.
He gets 40,000 rupees in a blink.
Half of that is commission, which he gets only after he gets an order.
And do you even know
what a salesman has to go through to get an order?
Why do you find fault in everything I do?
You are a bloody negative bastard.
Dude, he has a habit of lecturing people. Come on, let's dance.
No man, once and for all let's get this straight.
These management exams are not my cup of tea,
and my family can't afford a private MBA.
Sales is the only field where your knowledge matters more than grades do.
Now you'll say I don't have the knowledge, either.
Why would I say that?
Come. Let's dance.
I don't want to.
Come on.
I told you I don't want to.
I don't do things that don't involve power or money.
Just try it once. People will pay 100 rupees to watch you dance.
Good morning. Morning.
Morning. Morning...
Good morning. Good morning,
Good morning. Good morning sir, My name is Harpreet Singh Bedi.
Harpreet Singh. Harpreet Singh.
Good morning, sir. I'm Harpreet Singh Bedi. Can I have a seat?
Good morning. I'm Harpreet Singh Bedi.
Good morning, gentlemen. Good morning, ma'am.
I'm Harpreet Singh Bedi.
I can't tell you how much I admire this unique company and... Unique?
Good morning, unique...
Come on, son, come have some sweet curd for luck.
Did you pack all your certificates?
-Especially your character certificate? -Yes.
-Brushed up on your general knowledge? -Yes.
Did you memorize an essay?
It's an interview, not an exam.
-Have you memorized today's newspaper? -Yes.
-Have you recharged your number? -Yes.
Emptied your bowels?
On one side you're feeding curd
on the other hand... Okay bye, I'm leaving.
Had you used your brains in studies, you wouldn't need all this.
If Einstein studied with your snoring, he'd also need curd.
Really? Was I snoring again?
Not only that, you never let us sleep either.
Straighten your turban.
What is the company all about?
Don't know, will find out on the way.
They make computers. My grades are low, not my IQ.
Oh lord, all is up to you now.
No matter how he is, he is your child. Watch over him.
Good morning. AYS. Transferring, sir.
Good morning. AYS. Line 2, sir.
Excuse me, ma'am.
Good morning, AYS. Transferring you to sales, sir.
Nitin, inquiry!
Inside the Taj Mahal, I'll speak to them.
I may look like it, but I am not.
You'll burn your fingers
if you peek at other's clients or wives.
Everyone's suspicious here!
I'm leaving this place.
Heard it for 3 years.
Barking dogs seldom bite.
I haven't received a single call since morning. I am not fasting.
Could you hold, sir? What can I do if your territory's dead?
When you get your territory, you don't say anything.
If you say something in the Taj Mahal, you hear an echo.
This month's commission is gone.
I shortlisted an LCD. My wife will be upset.
Get back home on time, she'll be happy.
Who brings more trouble, motorcycle or wife?
Connecting, sir.
It's your client. Been trying you for four days.
Try calling them after a sale. Clients still live.
Clients must be wondering where salesmen go after a sale?
-Excuse me. -At Your Service, good morning.
Sir, please try and reboot.
Mr. Puri is not in India. Okay, thank you.
-Chotelal? -Did Mr. Puri get his coffee?
-Four since morning.
Nitin is inside with the sales figures.
Thankfully, he's not asking for a peg.
What are you looking at?
Nothing.
You want to get killed?
Hello. Can I help you?
Yes ma'am. I'm Harpreet Singh Bedi for the interview...
One minute. Sir, a call for you on line two.
Should have told me.
You were busy, so I did not...
You're afraid of disturbing people? How will you become a salesman?
-Harpreet Singh? -Yeah. I mean, yes.
Nitin sir wants you in the conference room.
Where is the conference room?
Up in the sky. Follow me.
Hello!
Hello, mister. Inside.
Hello, sir. I'm Harpreet Singh Bedi.
It's an honor. Fantastic company.
Why? What's so fantastic about this company?
Sales, sir. The sales team's reputation is...
Good.... But it can be better.
12th-35 percent. B. Com-39 percent.
No experience, nothing.
'Put together college magazine.'
-You want to be a salesman? -Yes, sir.
Okay, sell yourself, come on.
Sir, I think I am a hard worker and...
You think, or you are?
I mean, I am, sir, and I want to learn everything about products,
-markets, customer relations... -Enough!
-You know, selling? -Of course, sir.
Sell this pencil to me, for 100 rupees.
Sir, this eraser?
I took it off, but you convince me that it's there.
Sir, how can I if it's not there?
If you can't sell, how can we give you a job?
Come on, apply somewhere else. Okay?
Hello, sir. I'm Harpreet Singh from Singh Pencils.
This is our new pencil, HS-1016.
Sorry, we've stocked pencils for the year.
No problem, sir. I'll give you a demo. Just 2 minutes.
What's the use of a demo of a pencil without an eraser?
This is not a pencil without an eraser.
It's a pencil with a detachable eraser.
Think of something new!
Sir, the lead on this pencil is unbreakable.
If you apply that much pressure, anything will break.
But even if it breaks, it can be easily sharpened. See!
Telling lies doesn't help.
But perfume does.
This eraser is a specially imported perfumed eraser.
Do we put pencils up our nose?
No, sir, in the AC vent. See?
There are many other uses.
An ear bud for cleaning ears.
A tooth pick for cleaning teeth.
Hair. I mean, comb. Reboot your mobile.
Make a 3 pin socket into a pin socket.
If that doesn't work, kill time with it.
Just like you're doing.
-What's going on? -Sir.
Puri sir.
Hello, sir.
Sir, sales interviews.
Not that great, sir.
-Take him. -Sir?
You did not give up, I like that.
-Thank you, sir. -Okay. You can go now.
Your mark sheets.
He failed a year, sir!
Not failed, short on attendance.
Sales don't happen on mark sheets, but balance sheets.
Selling a two rupee pencil like a Mercedes worth millions.
He must be something.
Thank you, sir. I won't disappoint you.
Don't.
15,000 per month. No medical, no gratuity, no provident fund.
Six months training period. No commitment from us. Yes or no?
Yes!
Everyone, this is... Singh. Sales trainee.
-Welcome to wonderland. -Disneyland.
-Koena. -Sexy.
-His mother's name! -Rajesh.
-Rumaan, double A. -Narayan.
-Tanmay. -Taxi.
Bastard.
Chotelal, give him the product brochure, rate list, etc.
-Tomorrow is Sunday, memorize everything. -Yes, sir.
Now go settle down. Over there.
-Go on. -Yes, sir.
Boss, please come.
Okay, Monday morning's meeting, everyone's gonna get it.
Everyone, keep your sales figures ready.
We still have eight months to go.
The one who sells the most will be the salesman of the year,
will receive a commission of 5 lakh and a Goa vacation.
And you will go to London, adding everyone's sales.
-I heard that. -Where are you going this year?
We beat around in the sun and he gets a London trip.
You guys need to improve.
Personal attacks are below the belt.
Let us be professional here, okay?
Yesterday, he coined a new slogan,
those who sell, come by and those who don't, goodbye.
Shut up, cup-plate.
Sit down.
Those who sell, come by...
and those who don't, goodbye.
What does that mean?
That's what happens in sales. Those who can't perform, have to go.
Where will he go?
Go anywhere, join another company.
If that turns out to be the same?
Of course, it will be.
Today's companies have become so unethical.
Professional. Professional, grandpa.
Not like in your times, go to office everyday,
sign in, eat lunch and come home.
As if we didn't work all our lives,
companies ran by themselves?
I am not talking about you. You believe work is worship.
These professionals. What does work mean to them?
Nothing, just work.
How does it matter? As long as my grandson worships his work.
Rest, leave it to God.
Yes.
Hold him, hold the Sardar.
No, please, let go off me, Sardar.
He failed.
Mr. Inamdar. An honest man. He got his due!
-What do you mean? -Nitin sir wants to see you.
Chotelal, give me a cup of tea.
They want 56 computers.
So, quote for 16. We'll adjust for 42.
Yes, sir.
-Read it all? All set? -Of course.
Anyone want to volunteer for his field induction?
Haven't been on a field visit in a long time,
let's see what's going on with everybody.
Riding a motorcycle doesn't make a manager a salesman again.
The wife must have taken the car.
Letterheads. Business cards.
10 in pocket, 10 in wallet, 20 in bag.
Let's go.
350? Now that's a motorcycle, sir.
Zip it up.
You wore it wrong.
Your dad runs a laundry?
By evening the shirt will get dirtier than your tongue.
From this signal to the next is your territory.
No other AYS sales executive ventures into the offices here.
Any inquiries from here, Koena will help.
That's a residential area.
Any companies here?
What would you do if there were? Sell pencils?
Sign in.
What are you doing?
Filling our and our company's names.
Want to be a salesman?
First rule,
never write your or your company's correct details anywhere.
-Why? -Put an ad in the paper instead!
No one in the company sees the register.
But a competitive salesman always scans the entries
for the names of fools, like you.
Are all these names incorrect?
Of course. The salesmen's names are incorrect, like this guy, James Bond.
He is from Monovo. He is marking his territory here. He is teasing us.
He thinks he's already got the order.
So, then?
I have a trump card. Let me see if I can use it now.
Mr. Pandey.
Sir. It's been a while.
Thanks.
What news?
The guy from Monovo has been hovering here since morning.
Saw him photocopying some documents.
Server quotation.
Thanks.
Sorry, boss.
What is it?
Nothing boss, he's crazy. Here's your floor.
Excuse me, boss.
He got off on the wrong floor. New kid from Wintel.
By the time he reaches the client he'll grow up.
Okay, sir. Yeah. 6:30 pm?
I'll convey that to him. Have a nice day.
Yes?
Are you going to say something or keep smiling like a fool?
-How're you? -Sharma sir's busy.
Can't I come to meet you?
You wouldn't meet your wife without a reason.
Be the wife, then we'll see.
Sit down, let me see. Idiot.
Is she your girlfriend?
My good days are not over yet.
What if she'd taken offense?
That was a risk, sir.
Even Spiderman has to take risks.
You're just a salesman.
Okay, fine. Go ahead.
Idiot.
Mr. Sharma's Australia trip canceled. Bonus announcement...
Mr. Mavalankar promoted. Really? My next trump card.
-You go first. He's in bad a mood. -Why?
Because Mavalankar has been promoted. Go.
Good morning, sir, I am Harpreet Singh, this is my colleague...
Nitin, how are you?
Now that you're a sales manager, we don't exist anymore?
No, sir, nothing like that. Tanmay must be dropping by now and then.
You must be busy planning your Australia trip?
No, I canceled it. There's a lot of work in the office.
There are other people working in the company as well.
I heard that too, but I haven't seen any yet.
Anyway, tell me more.
Tanmay must have mailed the quote?
Is that a quote?
Look at this. You people mail anything.
He is a kid. Still learning the ropes.
What range are you looking at? We'll send a fresh one.
I'll let you know.
By the way, the Monovo people were saying that
Mr. Mavlankar asked to keep it within 10 lakh.
Mavlankar? What has he got to do with this quote?
This is not his department.
No, sir, they said that he has been promoted,
and now heads the purchase department.
One minute. Do me a favor.
Send in a fresh quote of 10 lakh, 10 thousand.
Throw in a year of free service and warranty.
Then let's see who gives, I mean, who gets the order?
Right, sir.
But I must say, these Monovo people are very unprofessional.
I never expected this from them.
What can I say, sir?
We have a policy of not talking about competition.
Yes, I know. sorry... And you?
Hello sir, I'm...
My cousin, sir, I was dropping him off to college.
You're too good, boss.
Getting too familiar with Tanmay's client?
No, I was just introducing myself.
Started already? Sales freak.
Good. Good.
But, sir, how did you know of the Monovo plan?
Did you skip school as well? Didn't they teach you...
Necessity is the mother of invention.
How did you know the exact quote?
I read it. How else?
On that notice board?
Sharma.
Mr. Sharma didn't show us any quotation.
No one shows a quotation! You have to see it.
He was reading it.
You can read upside down?
You know what they call a salesman who can't read upside down?
What?
Blind.
If Jogeshwari is on the Goregaon linkroad then,
it is in Jogeshwari. Isn't it?
No. it's not. Everyone knows it's in Goregaon.
He is my prospect and I have already spoken to him.
Madam, when you called I was there.
I already spoke to Nitin.
Nitin!
Hello. Got your target?
No, where do I get it from?
It falls on your head.
Look, I am warning you, if you even look at my clients,
I'll kill you.
-Hello. -Put Giri on.
-Who? -Koena, who else would call you?
-Pass the phone to Giri. -Who?
Get up, look over the partition. The service manager.
Hurry up now, his client is getting impatient.
Hi.
-What? -How much longer?
-Your client's been waiting an hour. -I don't know.
Give me an estimate? Or will you make him wait till evening?
I don't know. It's a technical problem, it takes time.
-What's the problem? -The monitor is not showing anything.
Needs a new mother board.
Why don't you open it and take a look, Giri sir?
Maybe it can be fixed.
Open it.
Push hard.
Not that. The third one. Is it in? Now reboot.
It's working.
It was a loose connection. Pack it up.
Dial Koena, number 9.
Tell the client his mother board was fried. Will put in a new one.
Will cost Rs. 5000. How can we charge less?
It's his fault, he didn't use a UPS. That's another Rs. 3,250.
It'll take a week to fix.
If you want a client's blood, ask for it.
Why ask for money?
Experience.
He's the one getting a week's experience...
If I fixed your computer in 5 minutes, would you pay me 10,000?
Should I tell Nitin sir?
Go tell him. How do you think his London trip is funded?
From here. Now leave me alone.
Chotelal, yesterday's CD. Where is it?
It's here. Sir, please, don't leave it lying around.
Watched it last night?
No, I went home.
Did you watch "Jungli Raani"?
Get me a cup of tea.
Should I pack this?
What? Leave it. Get me tea first.
Even Spiderman takes risks,
at least I'm a salesman.
What's going on? Okay, guys, I have an announcement.
Jai Hind Motors is in!
Party time in the evening. Booze is on the company,
women are not, so bring your own.
ABSOLUTELY NO PERSONAL CALLS
Yes, yeah, I'm calling from the office.
Will I be calling from college?
Please eat dinner, I'll be late. I have an office get-together.
We can discuss fixing the toilet later. Okay, bye.
-Sorry, Mr. Mishra. -What?
You are Chotelal Mishra?
It's on the intercom list.
See this. The man who failed is the most educated.
Chotelal, what are you doing?
Don't worry, ma'am. Everyone, stay in line. I'll serve you.
Move it, grandpa, move it or I'll put in a quotation.
Nitin, did you talk to Mr. Puri about me?
Oh, shit.
Please, Nitin. The position's been open for a long time.
They will get someone eventually.
Anyways, I have been looking over the work.
What about the phone calls?
The credit card guy has been trying to get to you for two months.
Has he reached you yet?
So, "attendance shortage", how are you?
I'm good, sir, thank you, how are you?
How ambitious are you, exactly?
Do you think you can take over his job?
No, sir.
You think I would have fired him if you said yes?
No, sir.
I like you, you didn't get emotional.
You have a quality for going up,
but you also have a quality for going down.
Eventually the quality that wins will define your life.
So where do you want to go? Up or down?
Up, sir.
To climb up, you'll have to walk over many people,
and they will bite you hard.
And tomorrow if you're late for work, your pay will be cut. Welcome to AYS.
They say after 70, a man's age restarts from zero.
Dude, close your eyes.
Two minutes.
I don't have two minutes.
I waited for you for three hours, you don't have 2 minutes for me.
Okay, fine, it's your carpet. Don't blame me later.
New pinch.
What's this?
-Our brand new scooter. -What?
Yes. One with a button start.
No more kicking or pushing,
just gently press the button and fly like a bird.
Want to ride a scooter at your age?
Why should I ride it?
I'll sit behind like a prime minister. You'll drive, right?
-Me? -Yes.
-Ride a scooter? -What's the problem?
It's your favorite color, too. Maroon.
I told you earlier, jokes after 9:30 am only!
It's no joke! I put my all PPF savings into buying it, and you say...
I never asked for a scooter.
You go finish cleaning up, and then we'll talk. More comfortably.
What do you mean, comfortably?
You put your savings into a scooter
without telling me!
How much advance did you pay?
-The scooter is outside. -You paid the entire amount?
You don't get a scooter for half the price!
Come on, sardar, check it out.
Bloody shit.
Why're you so difficult?
Can't gifts given with love, be received with love?
-Did I ask you for it? -It's very modern. Ride it once and see.
Did I ask you for it?
Have I only given you things when you asked for them? Who are you to ask?
Go to hell!
Target Rs. 6,00,000.
25000. If one computer is Rs. 25000,
and 24 PCs quarterly, means 24 computers
in three months, monthly...
You have 8 PCs to sell and it's already the 20th of this month.
But I started last week on the 14th and I got my target today.
So ideally my month starts today?
Really? You're learning fast. Just do what you're told, boss.
You're a trainee, not an MD.
-Right, sir. -That's the spirit.
Listen.
Drop this quote off
to Mr. Chaudhary at National Chemicals.
National Chemicals is in the wrong direction.
We hired you to go in the right direction?
Hey, hero. Best of luck on your first client visit.
Stop by a temple too.
Emotions are under control.
My scooter has petrol.
That's all I need.
Good morning, sir.
Fine, and the rest?
If you have any requirements,
let me know. I'll arrange it.
What's there to arrange?
I'll give you an address, have it sent there.
Sure, sir, do you have another branch?
That's a good one. I do, my sister's house.
How much has been decided?
Whatever is in the quote. Plus taxes.
The government gets the taxes. What do we get?
You get the machines, sir.
Nice sense of humor you have! 10 percent, okay?
Sir, please, why are you pulling my leg?
No, I am not. Are you?
Please, don't embarrass me, sir.
Your attitude is very unprofessional.
Work will be difficult for you.
Sir, please speak to Nitin directly. I am leaving.
Leaving without anything? With an empty stomach?
Some tea or coffee. Sardarji?
Connecting, sir. At your service, good afternoon.
-Will send it. -Where is Mr. Nitin?
Right. Yes, sir.
Back so quick. Is it raining outside?
Where is Mr. Nitin?
Inside the Taj Mahal.
He's already had 4 cold drinks. He's waiting for you.
There's a lot of global warming.
Connecting, sir.
-Good afternoon, sir. -Yes.
Hello, sir.
What happened at NCC?
Ask me what didn't happen? Something is terribly wrong there.
Why? What happened?
Sir, he asked for a bribe, and to my face.
-What are you saying? -I swear!
So what was your reply?
Didn't say anything at first, then carefully explained it.
On my way out I saw a complaint box,
I wrote it in detail and dropped it in there,
on our company letterhead. Signature, date, everything.
Here's a copy.
What's the matter?
Are you being a smart-ass?
Why, what happened?
Without authorization, you use the company letterhead
and make false allegations against our clients?
And get away with it? It's a clear case of company letterhead forgery.
One second, boss.
Who do you think you are?
How dare you make allegations against the GM of NCC?
Barely born and trying to fly high?
Sir, I was rejecting him in the interview.
Shut up, Nitin.
We can charge him with fraud to begin with.
Let's consult the lawyers for more charges.
Sir, please tell him to mind his language.
You bastard. You think you can go and spoil our relations with clients,
and nothing will happen to you?
How dare you speak to our clients in such a way?
You haven't sold one thing yet, but you talk as if you've sold millions.
I'll slap you so hard, you won't be able to speak for the rest of your life.
Quietly complete your training period and get out of here.
One mistake. One more mistake and I will throw you out.
Bloody bastard.
Get out!
Did you have to be so righteous?
You should have quietly gone back, let them resolve it.
Did you have to become a hero?
Did someone tell me when I started,
that the company is corrupt and I'd have to do all this.
Every company is like this, and you have to do this in every company.
-This is common sense. -Leave this job.
Leave and do what? I haven't even finished one month yet.
It'll look bad on my resume.
Hello. Yes, I'm at the office.
No, you eat dinner, I have another get-together.
I won't ride the scooter drunk.
You gave me a MIG 29, it might end up crashing...
Okay, bye.
And this scooter has tapped into his savings.
Why don't you join a call center? They'll employ anyone.
I didn't mean it like that.
Need a relieving certificate from the previous employer.
Do I need to tell?
Say it's your first job.
What have I done wrong? Why should I lie to anyone?
Should I beat up Puri?
Right! That's all that was left to be done.
You should have made at least one sale.
How long has it been since you joined the company?
Listen to me, don't worry, go to the office tomorrow.
Puri will have forgotten everything.
Who remembers a trainee in such a big company?
-Exactly. -Right?
I'll leave for my field-rounds early tomorrow.
Check this out. What happened? Trouble?
Did you fight with Nitin?
What happened, bro?
-What? -Your praises.
-A lot. -Read it out to him.
Mr. Harpreet Singh is henceforth stopped from visiting any clients.
He will only make cold calls from his desk
-and pass on leads to colleagues. -Colleagues.
They barred you from the field.
Your targets were thrown out.
Not just targets, your entire career is over.
You're finished. Nice going!
Okay, people, sales target meeting, in the conference room.
Man, what now? There are limits to targets.
Let's go drop our pants.
-Who knows what'll happen? -Right.
Boss, not you.
What would you do if you came? Yours have already been dropped!
What did you do, boss? Beat up a client?
Bloody idiot! You'll get us killed, which idiot hired you?
If you ever call my clients, I'll beat you up.
You look so decent on the outside,
but on the inside you're a psycho. Get help.
Hey, anti-corruption branch, from now on your territory is mine.
lf you have leads give them to me.
I'd give them to you, if there were any.
Look at this idiot's attitude. Why don't you shut up?
Because of you, all our targets have been doubled.
Don't come near me. I'll kill you.
No use talking to him. Idiot.
What are you doing? The Ramayan is on.
Ramayan's been on for years. Anyone learned anything?
How long to watch the same story?
You're taking things to heart.
This job has stressed you out. Don't work so hard.
You are a hard worker anyway. Do your co-workers realize this?
Jobs today are too stressful.
They make a fool out of good men.
-Hello, Harpreet. -Good morning.
Hey, Harpreet.
What happened? Something did happen?
-Hello. -Good morning, ma'am.
I'm calling from At Your Service computers.
We sell and support all kinds of PCs and also...
-Please don't bother me! -No problem, I'll try later.
I'm calling from At Your Service Computers.
Call later!
No problem, I'll try later.
Somebody's just died, will you let people die in peace at least?
I'm extremely sorry, sir, I'll try you later. Yes, sir.
Why do you keep disturbing us?
-Hello, sir. -What number are you looking for?
-Am I speaking to Mr. Jai Hind Joshi? -Do I sound like a Joshi?
Give me your business card.
All of them. Nitin wants them.
You're not going out in the field,
we'll cut them and give them to taxi. Nitin said so.
This seat is cursed.
Hello, sir, a 21-inch monitor is perfect for entertainment.
Okay, see you, bye.
Can you drop me off at the station? My husband isn't coming.
I had an inquiry from your territory, for 2 PCs.
Give it to Rajesh, I have to give it to him anyway.
If you give him one or two, you won't die.
Quietly go and get an order. Tell them after a couple of days.
Without an order you'll be in trouble.
Get an order, and get into trouble, or maybe not.
Okay. Don't take it.
My husband's here. OK bye.
What I mean is, the kind of technical expertise we have,
the experience we have, and the kind of service we give,
we don't really have any competition.
But your company is so big, so your prices...
Why? The company being big doesn't mean
prices need to be high.
They should be based on the customer's pocket
not the company's. That's exactly what we do!
And you want a bet.
That is really impressive but,
discount?
Ma'am, at least place an order first.
Pentium processor with this graphic card.
-I'm going to give you the best price. -Okay.
Ma'am, we don't sell PC's with this graphic card.
But no problem, I'll check with the office.
Boss, are you a trainee or something?
No, but everyone has a boss. I am sure you do, too?
No.
He doesn't even know what kind of product he has,
people good at nothing become salesmen.
Please find out from elsewhere.
-From where? -I don't know, ma'am.
Look. I'm really sorry.
For the last 2 days, we've been seeing salesman after salesman.
-It's okay. -At least find out for us.
What?
Which company assembles this configuration with this graphic card?
Ma'am I told you, don't know.
-Want some maggi? -What?
Here, eat some maggi noodles.
Please eat. It's ready.
Please join us. Ayesha. Come on, eat.
Plain glasses.
We started a new business but no one takes us seriously.
Neither parents, nor clients nor salesmen.
I'll find out about your graphic cards.
Hello.
Yes, how can I help?
Sir, do you keep this graphic card?
HD 4350. Keep them? I sell them.
-What's the price? -Here it is.
-What's the price? -Rs. 4,400.
And for two?
Why don't you take it for Rs. 8,000, I'll throw in the condiments for free.
Can't it be less?
That is the wholesale rate. I can't charge any less!
With the rest of the parts, you'll have a new PC for Rs. 20,000,
you can sell it for at least Rs. 30,000!
One can assemble a PC with this card for Rs. 20,000?
What do you think? We make it for Rs. 25,000. Want one?
But companies don't sell it to customers
for less than 35-40,000 rupees.
If it's so little, why sell it for so much?
Customers are foolish enough to get used to it.
Forgive me, Lord Ganesh.
See, if I had an AC room, a big store, I would also sell it for more.
This is quite a con!
You're buying two, who are you conning?
No, I am not conning anyone.
Can I keep this price list?
Keep it. I would recycle it anyway.
And listen, get your stuff today or tomorrow.
Here, the world changes in the snap of a finger.
There's no guarantee of anything.
I know.
Yeah! That will cost you Rs. 350, do you want it? Take it.
Hello, Miss Sherena, please. Hi, it's me. Harpreet.
You asked me to find out about the PC's.
How are you? Good. We'll supply it.
Oh! Okay.
Rs. 27,500 per PC with one year guarantee.
Are you sure? Is there a sale on?
No, because this is your first order.
Okay. Who should I make the check out to? Ahhh...
Hello...
Hello?
Rocket.
Rocket Sales Corporation.
Mr. Lalwani?
I was about to shut down the shop. Do you want the card?
Yes, 2 graphic cards, and everything that goes in for 2 PCs.
Pack everything.
Who are you conning?
You. I'll take it on credit. Payment next week.
-Do you see that? -Cash today, credit tomorrow.
When you started your business, how much money did you have?
Someone must have trusted you with credit.
Yes, that was a relative.
So consider me your relative, too, and keep my scooter as a guarantee.
It's more than the purchase.
What kind of deal are you doing?
Will you do it?
Okay, go ahead.
I've never seen a Sardar cheat someone. Let's do it.
But when you get what you want, don't forget me.
You've made me your relative!
If I forget everything, I won't forget this, Mr. Lalwani. Thanks.
What are you doing at the office at this hour?
You barely bring orders during the day,
why come at night?
I need some help from you.
You've managed to royally mess up with this company,
now what?
There's... there's an order.
Aren't you supposed to pass your orders to others?
This order is not for anyone.
-Who is the client? -A friend.
You mean... it's a personal order,
not the company's?
Profit is also personal.
What you seem, you are not. What you are, I don't know.
-Do you have petrol in your scooter? -Why?
I don't waste fuel on work for friends.
It's a rule, from my engineering college days. Shall we leave?
-Yes. -Let's go.
What?
Nothing.
Is all this yours or AYS's?
Did I ask you if the order was yours or AYS's?
See, for 50 years, government has been encouraging us.
To be self-employed.
Shouldn't we do something or will the government do everything?
Tried for an IAS?
No, why?
Nothing, the country was spared.
Does Puri know?
No, boss, keep it quiet. Why drop an ant in an elephant's trunk?
If he finds out?
Who'll tell him, you?
This is the configuration. Will you get it ready by 10 am?
Why 10 am? Do you want to go farming? It'll be ready by 8 am.
When do you sleep?
In the office.
Any advance cash?
No, it's okay.
Thanks. Shall I leave?
See you.
Hey, I forgot to give you the software.
Were you born today?
When there's a free copy, why buy it legally? It's expensive.
I'll reduce my profit.
But I won't reduce my fees.
Instead of fees, I'll share the profit with you. Okay?
I don't mind, but if you use legal software,
and give me profit sharing, what will you earn? Peanuts?
It's okay.
What?
All okay, ma'am?
We'll know in time. I hope your service...
At your service, whatever you need.
Well, I hope I won't need it.
Of course, any problems, call me, on my mobile phone.
No need to call my office.
Why? Is it unavailable?
No.
One more thing.
Yes?
That's my first order.
So it's not that 'those who don't know anything become salesmen'.
-Right. -Right.
Well, thanks.
You're most welcome.
Hurry up. I'm starving.
I'm coming.
I'm very hungry, what's for dinner?
Lentils and spicy fried potatoes.
Forget the lentils, let's order a pizza. What do you say?
What's going on? Have you received a big order?
Don't ask, just tell. You want it or not?
Yeah, sure, treat me.
But first let's thank the Lord,
you've barely begun and you are successful.
Thank you, God. My child has worked diligently
and you have blessed him with success.
So please guide him through a righteous path
and protect him from evil.
Let his mind be free from deceit
and let his head be held high.
What do you say?
I belong to God, and God is Victorious.
Call for pizza.
No, let's have the lentils instead.
Why? What happened?
Let's have lentils.
What are you doing? I'm downloading.
I'm confessing everything to Puri.
Whatever I get, I'll return it to him.
And I will clear your payment in time, with installments.
What? What's gotten into you this morning? Calm down, let me explain.
If you mention me, I'll deny everything.
Is Mr. Puri free?
He's at lunch at the club.
Where's the club?
Our offer is a value proposition.
See the price, see the quality and make a decision.
Drink? Two more please.
Come, come.
-Sit. -Sorry, sir...
I'll come back later.
Sit, sit. Please, sit.
Remember him? Your old friend? Say hello.
-Hello. -Hello.
How are your...
complaints, etc?
-Sir, I'll come back later. -No, sit.
We were just praising you. Sit.
Do you know this man?
Of course, you know, but you must have thought...
is this the company's most idiotic employee?
No, he is. He's an idiot. Zero! Total zero!
But even a zero has value. We were talking about value. Ask how? Simple.
Just like the value of zero, he also has value.
An idiot, he doesn't have a basic brain.
Doesn't know how to talk, nor does he understand things. A donkey, zero!
But even a zero can be useful, sir.
If the person who uses it understands its value.
Place the zero well,
you can keep doing it, and how many times you do will add to your profit.
Zero is quite amazing. It was invented in India!
Where else it could be from?
Today this idiot, this zero was helpful to my company,
more than my salesmen. Ask me how?
Him?
It's a fact, sir, a fact.
You see, this donkey misbehaved with you.
But he is a donkey, he will kick you.
But thanks to his foolishness, I found it's an opportunity.
Like a 9/11 attack on the company.
I decreased the sales commissions, doubled the targets.
You wont believe it,
I'm having the most profitable quarter of my career.
Accountants are in a haze.
And all this thanks to this big zero.
But what happened with you was very wrong.
We'll ask him to beg for forgiveness.
Come on, say sorry to sir.
Say, sorry, sir, I won't do it again.
-Do I make him beg? -Please.
Should he?
Sorry.
Forgive him. He is a small man. Not our level.
When should we expect our order?
It has gone to the higher ups. By tomorrow.
Just give us good service.
Aren't we giving you good service now?
Let's go confront him.
You did your best, now just quit.
Right, you are not meant to be a salesman. Leave it.
I'll leave it, but wherever I go, I'll be the same.
Was it your mistake? It's the company's fault.
What if the next is the same?
-And the next one? -Meaning?
I always quit, boss.
You two studied hard, night after night, while I played cricket, know why?
I'd failed on the inside from the beginning.
So whatever I got is enough.
Passing MBA exams is one thing,
I failed the moment I thought of taking them.
I was kidding.
No, listen, do you know why Puri insults me over and over?
Because I let him, because I'm satisfied that I have a job.
You know what, I just realized, it's not his fault, it's mine.
Because I'm taking it. -You're nice.
Nice! Nothing happens with being nice. Mice are nice.
I had to pay the price.
Not-so-nice people pay the price.
Have a seat.
If as always, I live with being nice,
it'll be my biggest mistake.
I'll teach Puri a lesson.
You were going to quit, right?
I was, but now I won't let go.
I won't let go of the job.
I was interviewed and selected.
I'm suitable for the job. I haven't done anything wrong.
If the whole company is wrong...
Company is wrong but company will be right.
I won't go wrong and I won't leave this job.
So what will you do?
I don't know.
But whatever I do, for the rest of his life,
Puri won't call any employee a zero.
Whatever happened till today was a mistake.
I'll make that mistake big,
so big, that AYS will look like a mistake in front of it.
Calm down, your career's just started. Why are you taking such a risk?
Even Spiderman has to take risks,
I'm just a salesman.
What's with you, Sakku?
You should use the key.
Where were you since yesterday?
Did Puri fire you?
No, he offered me beer.
Come on, Puri has been the king
of the computer assembly business for 20 years.
He has 2,500 clients in his pocket.
He's so shrewd, branded companies steer clear of him.
And you want to compete?
There's a difference in making a computer for a friend
and starting a company.
You've just started and already you're flying high?
What you know about making a PC?
You know, that's enough.
Fifty-fifty, every order, every month.
Lift. Lift.
Congrats. Put a sexy girl's photo on that.
It'll attract clients.
Sorry.
These are A4 sheets?
What's their price?
Why?
How much for a printer cartridge?
You want one? I'll give them to you.
How many?
Also the electricity, we are the only ones using it, right?
How much will all of this be?
Puri will pay. What is it to you?
All this, printer, paper, electricity, phone calls, ink,
I'll return their cost to Puri one day, with interest.
Why? He wants to ruin your career and you're looking out for him.
Not him, I'm looking out for us.
There should be a difference between AYS and the Rocket Sales Corporation.
Yes, I can see the difference. While he's making a profit,
we're talking about losses.
Make some room, these are old files.
There's a lot of space on your desk. Bablu, get more.
Everyone! Please meet Mr. Shah, our new office manager.
Mr. Shah, this is the sales team, that is customer support
and over there, accounts.
-Narayan. -Hello.
Nitin. One minute.
This manager... I mean...
Yes, so?
Oh! no... It Happens. Let it go.
But, you said Puri was giving it to me.
So? If someday that saucer wants to be the MD, will we make it one?
There is a system. Not everyone is suited for every post.
-There's ability... -I am handling all the work,
and that is ability...
Is that ability? The ability that you have, is it less?
You should stay where we can see you looking pretty.
You increase sales by 2-4% when clients come in.
Now, I'm a little busy. Okay?
Koena.
-One minute. -What is it?
-No, not here. -What is it?
Next time I'll slap you, this is no time for a prank.
-I am not joking. -Neither am I. Now leave.
What's your problem?
Why don't you do your work, instead of talking nonsense?
Will you be our office manager, Koena? Join us.
Join what? Get out of here. Have you lost your brains?
Haven't you had enough? Now you're looking for more grief?
If anyone gets to know, they'll mince you up
and distribute it all around.
Will you join us? Yes or no?
Why are you doing this?
Because we work in an office where no one sees our potential.
And the most useless of things
things that are unrelated, they notice those.
That's what we are here: Me, a joker. And you, an item girl.
Have you lost your mind? You told Koena everything!
-Relax. -Why relax? She will tell Puri,
then we'll be kicked out and then we can relax for the rest of our lives.
She won't, that's not like her.
Why wouldn't she talk? How do you know how people are?
In this company, everything is a master of politics.
They'll sell you and yet you'll say thank you.
She won't tell anyone.
Why wouldn't she? Is she your relative?
Koena is not that way.
Don't fall into her trap. She's married.
Okay, listen to me, do you trust me?
Until now I did, now I don't.
You do, I trust Koena in the same way.
Please keep quiet for two minutes.
Keep your mouth shut.
-Come in, partner. -Oh, God!
Welcome to Rocket Sales Corporation.
Starting today, our earnings will have three shares.
Yours, mine and Koena's.
I see, until morning it was 50-50, by afternoon it's 33-33.
This is how you do business?
You talk about expanding and keep cutting shares.
Is this how you'll expand?
Koena will help us expand. Because of her, we'll be able to get business.
How? On the phone?
-Correct. -If something goes wrong?
Nothing will go wrong. I am with you.
Don't be so frustrated that you get castrated.
Harpreet, if something goes wrong?
What can be worse than this?
Maybe we'll do something right!
Okay, I better run.
Not a good idea...
Giri, I have a request.
Tell me.
If you look at Koena that way...
How?
The way you look at your web sites,
I'll kill you, man. Seriously.
Look down. Double A.
We will soon need an office, or at least a conference room, for sure.
Tell me quickly. The office just closed.
My husband will be here any minute. What's so funny?
You're glued to those photos all day.
The rest of us live with humans.
Okay, listen.
From today, no Rocket Sales Corporation work will be discussed in AYS.
It's too risky.
Here's a list of lost clients.
Thanks.
They left because of AYS's bad service.
3 were Nitin's clients.
2 were Vibha's, 2 Rajesh's, 2 Rumaan's and 3 Taxi's.
PC's will be sold. So they'll need good service. Right?
Yes.
We'll offer them service for half the price.
How much is AYS's service contract for?
Whatever they can sell it for.
4-5,000 rs for one year, for one PC.
We'll offer it for 2,500, plus 1 extra month for free.
It's a good idea, but who'll service them?
I can't, I have work in the office all day.
All day, right? You can service them at night.
You don't sleep anyhow.
The idea is good. But I haven't heard it before.
That's why it's good.
Maintenance and repair will be done in the night,
clients will never see a bad PC.
What if a client recognizes me?
No one will recognize me.
So far, even I didn't recognize you.
Me neither.
He keeps an account of everything from AYS.
-Seriously? -Yeah, and one day he said...
we'll pay back everything we've used from the office.
I hope he doesn't keep accounts of your downloads,
you'll have to sell your house.
-Hello. -Sir, it's Harpreet.
What now?
Nothing, sir, I have a fever. Can I get day off...
His Highness can't make it to work!
The company will shut down.
You were managing everything.
You will teach us what happens during a notice period?
Bloody, lazy bum! Where's the interview?
No, sir, I really have a fever.
Yes, everyone has it during notice period.
Do what you want. Don't waste my time.
Good morning. Good morning, sir.
Good morning, sir. I'm Harpreet Singh
from Rocket Sales Corporation.
Hello. Harpreet Singh from Rocket Sales.
Harpreet Singh from Rocket Sales Corporation.
Come in.
Hello, sir. I am Harpreet Singh from Rocket Sales Corporation.
I see! So you provide services at night and during holidays?
Yes, sir, at night, during holidays,
Diwali, Dusshehra, Eid, New Year. Any day. Any time.
One phone call and zero down time for any PCs we sell.
Otherwise don't pay us, we'll pay you double the
service contract amount.
This is a unique Rocket Sales Corporation 24-hour guarantee.
Only for this month's customers, sir.
Can you put it in writing? Signed?
I have seen many companies before, but have never seen this much confidence.
Do you have money to refund?
That will never happen, sir, but if I need to, I'll sell my scooter.
I called your Mr. Wajahat's contact.
His friend said to come by after 7 pm.
He's not free before that, neither are we free!
AYS. Good afternoon.
Mr. Wajahat recommended you.
That's all okay, however, aren't you a small company for such a big order?
It's a small company, sir. That's why we are hungry.
We both know that you don't need us, but we need you.
And if we both know, then there's no chance of mistakes.
If something happens, how do you return double the amount?
Okay, I will do a double contract with you, sir.
Every month, you get the right to
the payments Mr. Wajahat makes to us.
If you're happy with us then you can transfer the payment,
otherwise your company can keep it.
That's a big risk.
Even Spiderman has to take risks. I'm just a salesman.
Very well. 30 PCs, single order.
You can fill it out.
I'll say it again. Only honesty works with me.
That's the only thing I have, sir. Nothing else.
How long will 30 PC's take?
30, is too many. It'll take at least 20 days.
-We have to deliver in a week. -What?
-I said yes. -What?
Don't you know any other word? Did not you listen, he said yes!
I told them a week. We can't fall behind.
We'll need another person. Someone who can assemble a PC.
-I knew that. -Do you know anyone?
Of all the trustworthy people, there's only one
who can assemble a PC quickly.
-Who? -Chotelal.
But he doesn't even know how to operate a PC.
But he knows how to assemble one. He can do it in his sleep.
Then, it's time we get another partner
into Rocket Sales Corporation.
Are you crazy? You'll make a peon a partner?
Why not? If someone knows the job of a director,
why can't they be one?
I knew something would go wrong.
If you knew, why did you join the company?
I didn't know it would go so wrong!
Me? Partner in a company? No, this isn't possible.
-Why not? Can you assemble a PC? -Yes.
Then you can be a partner too.
But, my job is to make tea.
If you miss this, you can make tea too.
Then it's fine. Will I need to speak in English?
No. You don't need to speak to anyone.
Just assemble PCs with Giri. Come on, okay?
Yes. Does it involve going to jail?
We're doing a business, why go to jail?
Big businessmen always go to jail.
It's not that big!
What if Mr. Puri gets to know?
Who'll tell him? Only the four of us know about this.
Sir, I could never have received such respect anywhere.
The day you called me Mr. Mishra,
instead of Chotelal, is the day you made me feel big.
Good, that means you don't want a share in the company?
No, when did I say that?
Partner.
I said, "Partner."
Are you tired?
-You are doing it, right? -I am, but you are not.
You are also a partner, you will also get a share.
You bastard.
Do it. Do it.
Good morning. AYS. Yes, sir. Connecting.
Good morning, partner.
Hey cup-plate! What's going on? Where's my coffee?
I'll pass on the message. Thanks.
Good afternoon, AYS. Can I help you? Connecting, sir.
Good afternoon. One minute, connecting.
Yello! Rocket who? Rocket Sales Corporation?
You got a wrong number.
Yeah, right, the number is right but this is AYS computers.
Can I help you?
Yes, Rumaan. What is to you if I didn't say AYS?
Who do you want to speak to? One minute.
Good afternoon. Wrong number.
-Too many wrong numbers these days? -What?
You just put one through. Rocket Sales Corporation?
The credit card collectors make up any name to get through.
Yes.
You will definitely transfer them now.
I want to speak to everyone right now.
Now. No, it can't wait till evening. No, right now. I said now!
I don't know how it reached Nitin. I must have been in a hurry.
There must be some way our clients can call us and we don't get caught.
There are two connections that were bought but never used.
Mr. Puri probably doesn't remember.
If those numbers are used, we may not have a problem.
If it flashes on the board, I'll know.
Fantastic.
If you ever cheat on your husband, he's had it.
Will our phone bills be separate?
I'll have to account for it.
-He's started again. -I have to run.
Someone might get suspicious.
Me too.
-Are you coming? -No, you carry on.
Okay. I'll see you tomorrow.
HP! Long time.
HP. Where have you been?
I don't get to see you, bloody big salesman.
-Office. -Office! Go get a drink!
Let me just relax.
Take your time but what will you drink?
Juice.
Juice? What's happened to you?
-Sai. -Yes. What happened?
Why aren't you dancing?
HP, meet Sherena. Sherena, meet HP.
HP?
Come on, guys, dance please.
How are you?
What?
How are the computers...
I'm good.
How are you?
What?
Nothing.
Forget it. Nothing!
What?
Shall we go in?
Juice?
No. Inside. Shall we go in?
Okay.
So, you know Appy?
Yeah, how do you know her?
College, and you?
School. Hostel. You know, I never thanked you.
You sold those computers to us at such a low price,
it really helped us.
Setting up a new business is quite difficult.
Well, you're welcome.
How's your business?
Planning to close it down.
Why?
Life is not as easy as it seems in college.
Salaries for 2, rent, electricity bills,
and clients don't even take phone calls from new companies.
Anyway, they say it takes 2 to 3 years to set up a new business,
unless you are doing something wrong.
Anyway, how's it going with you?
Okay. I mean it's going okay.
Is your training period over?
-Yes, it was over then. -When?
Right after your order.
It was not that big an order.
You've no idea.
What do you mean?
-I'll tell you some other time. -No, tell me now.
No, some other time.
You're really nice.
Other wise salesmen can be really pushy.
I feel I can talk to you.
Right.
Hey, do you want watch a movie? Sunday?
I mean, if it's okay with you.
Don't want to sound like a pushy salesman.
No, you're my client. I'm sorry. I shouldn't.
Why? Clients don't watch movies?
No, of course they do.
7 PCs were assembled in 2 days. Target is 30 PCs. We are going slow.
We are trying. You refuse to buy parts from another place.
Your Lalwani Electronics is a very small supplier.
If you want to increase work, leave him.
I won't leave him, Giri.
When I didn't have money, he gave me credit.
Today when I have a big order, I leave him?
Business doesn't run like this.
I don't understand your way of business.
Why are you trying to be a saint in a jungle?
You'll be ruined and you'll ruin us as well.
Eat a sandwich, nothing will go wrong. Trust me.
Idli.
I didn't order any, who did?
-Maybe the guy on the other table. -Correct.
I suspected something the moment
this kid started acting like a smart alec.
And that phone call.
Where's the complaint box?
I have a complaint about corruption.
Forget it. Lets make a phone call.
Everyone will have Mr. Puri's number on their cell phone.
Whose shall I use?
Look, we'll make a quiet arrangement between us.
What do you say?
If I say something then you'll say I talk a lot.
And for not talking, it'll cost you. A lot.
-How much? -10%, of every sale.
Look, if you want a share in our company,
then like all the partners, you'll have to work for it.
Okay, kid. Time to wake up, good morning.
From now on, the situation is such that you can't dictate terms to me.
But I can dictate any terms I want.
No, we can also dictate terms and the terms are these.
If you ever put on this shameless smirk then,
those bogus conveyance vouchers
that you have me fill out for the last two years,
I'll present them to
Mr. Puri along with his morning coffee.
And if you call me cup-plate one more time,
whether the company remains or not,
my share remains or doesn't,
I will take this very idli and shove it down your throat!
Thanking you, yours faithfully, Mr. Chotelal Mishra.
In front of Rocket Sales Corporation's partners,
I repeat my offer once again. Work with us,
and share equal profits.
Now there are five of us, so each one will get 20%.
Besides we needed another person in sales.
Why give this snake an equal share?
He's an experienced salesman, Giri.
He'll bring in so many orders that 20% won't seem a lot. Right, partner?
Welcome to Rocket Sales.
-Number 1. We never lie to a client. -Even if we lose the order?
We can lose an order not the client's trust.
Number 2. We believe in service more than sales.
Because the company that provides service, sells more.
What're you talking?
3. Even if the client asks we never offer a bribe.
How to get the order then?
We don't want such orders.
Number 4. We don't promise false delivery dates.
Whatever be the promised date, we make the delivery.
Number 5. We are always available for the client, day or night.
He'll drive us crazy calling us.
-That's the rule. -What do think?
This is what happens in asylums,
where patients wear white coats and become doctors.
So wear a coat. Best of luck for your first client meeting.
There's something wrong But it feels right
The sun is finally in sight
There's no time to think
When you're grabbing at a chance
There's something wrong But feels right
The sun is finally in sight
There's no time to think
When you're grabbing at a chance
Turning night into day
Pinned up by stars
Embedding the twilight
With a hundred moons
We have no time to offer apologies
for now. There's more to life.
There's something wrong But all's right
The sun is finally in sight
There's no time to think
When you're grabbing at a chance
There's something wrong But feels right
The sun is finally in sight
There's no time to think
When you're grabbing at a chance
Holding our breath forever
We were searching for something true
We caught a light
And held on to it
There's something wrong But everything's right
The sun is finally in sight
There's no time to think
when you're grabbing at a chance
There's something wrong But all's right
The sun is finally in sight
There's no time to think
When you're grabbing at a chance
Spinning like glistening tops
in a race against sanity
We travel along untraveled paths
Leaving no trail behind
The faster we run
The faster desire catches up
There's something wrong But everything's right
The sun is finally in sight
There's no time to think
When you're grabbing at a chance
There's something wrong But everything's right
The sun is finally in sight
M&T's order has also gone to Rocket Sales Corporation.
And this is not the first order that was going to be ours
and ended up with them. Good?
And all of you, the so-called best sales team has lost out
for the second time in two months, against this insignificant company.
What's going on? What does this Rocket, or whatever it is,
do to whisk away the clients from right under your
commission-filled noses? Any ideas?
What the shit is happening here?
What is this bloody company? What are they doing?
How much are they bribing that
at the very last moment the order ends up with them?
Who can tell me here?
You must have already applied.
Who are these people? When M&T was giving them the order,
were you sleeping? How did your order go to them?
Sir, we don't know a lot but
at the last moment they offered the client a terrific scheme.
What scheme? Which scheme?
This is India, when did orders come from schemes?
Sir, my clients are always giving examples of their services.
These guys service computers even at night!
What rubbish!
Sir, they keep their quotes so low that,
one of my clients called me a thief to my face.
How low?
Sir the simple PC that we sell for 32,000 they offer it
for 26,000 with two years free service, including night services.
So, if they have priced their PC at this rate it means,
they are only earning 2,200 while we make 6,000.
What are they doing?
Don't know, sir.
Where is their office?
How's it possible that they are taking away orders
from right under your noses, and besides this pamphlet
and phone number, no one knows anything about them.
Something is very wrong.
Nitin, one week. Get the history
and geography of this Rocket Sales Corporation! Get out!
You stay!
The post for Vice President Sales is vacant.
I want a very useful person there.
Show me in a week how useful you are,
and move in.
Otherwise, leave. There are other useful people here.
Growth will not cease, whether a person stays or leaves.
Enough. I think it's over.
Before Puri catches us, we should go apologize.
One minute, let me think. Don't panic.
Panic? Do you know what kind of person Puri is?
If he finds out, our jobs will be trouble.
No other company will hire us.
No, Giri, at the moment, he's only suspicious.
If my husband finds out...
If none of us tell him, how will he know?
Don't under-estimate him.
Did you see how quickly he calculated the profit?
The client bills have our address on them.
So what? It's just an address.
I told you we should have used a post box number.
So those not suspicious, also become suspicious, right?
He will know it eventually, one of us will tell him.
Who?
The snake has woken up.
What happened?
Look, boss, whatever happened between us, please don't take it personally.
I talk nonsense mostly,
I had nothing against you. We are okay, boss, right?
It's strange, for the first time in my career
people are scared of me and I am not happy.
The good thing is...
When I first started, I was like you.
The first few times, I didn't take bribes.
I lost my first promotion, then the second.
Everyone was receiving commissions. Eventually, I did too...
Thanks to you, after many years I felt the need to be my own boss.
But today, Puri put me in my place, in a minute.
If you sell out once, everyone thinks you'll sell out forever.
Whether it's the boss or partners.
I will never tell Puri, I've said what I had to.
The rest is up to you.
I thought about it. Giri?
-Yes. -Move elsewhere for a few days.
What about the stuff?
When the customers call, someone has to pick up. Right?
Yes, someone has to do it.
-I have a friend. -She knows, too?
What secret is this, the entire world knows?
She doesn't know yet, but I'll have to tell her someday.
You could also be intelligent, frankly, I didn't think so.
-Thanks. -Very smart?
"I will have to ask the company."
I had taken your order for the company.
But supplied it yourself instead?
Throwing rockets on me!
Wow! What an excuse. "They were throwing rockets at me!"
What would you do in my place?
If I were in your place, your boss would have died.
What a jerk! Kiss me quickly before I get angry.
So, are we on?
Yeah, obviously. I love you, so use me. What can I do?
When do you want to start?
Actually, they are waiting outside.
The supplies are in the van, and the van needs to be returned.
Is the company named after you or you after the company?
Can't you do things slowly?
Rocket Sales Corporation.
Say Rocket Sales Corporation. May I help you?
Rocket Sales corporation, may I help you?
Rocket Sales corporat...
Rocket Sales here, yup?
You talk to clients like that?
Just say Rocket Sales Corporation, may I help you?
So what! See how nice this is. Rocket Sales, Hi!
Clients will think it's a slimming center!
You want to make it formal?
-Okay, no problem. -Sure?
What?
Nothing.
Then why give me that stare?
Well, at least we have a separate number now.
We'll give the new numbers to the clients.
Thank God! I was on pins and needles.
Not bad.
Rocket Sales Corporation, may I help you?
Yes. I want to order some PCs.
-Transferring, sir. -Where is your offi...
Sherena, take this call. It's Puri, speak to him.
What do I know? Say something.
Rocket Sales Corporation, may I help you?
Yes, this is Sunil Puri, MD of AYS Computers.
I would like to speak to your MD.
-Shit! -Hello?
He is not in office, sir. I will give him your message.
Okay. By the way, where exactly is your office?
Second floor, thank you for calling.
For now, it's only a phone call, next time he'll go for our throat.
He knows. I'm telling, he knows everything.
If he'd known, we wouldn't be here chatting, we would be in jail.
In jail?
It's not that easy to get sent to jail.
You can't just make a booking and send someone there.
Nothing will happen.
If he calls again?
Tell him, sir is not well.
Tell, he's out of town.
Why town? Say he's out of the country!
If he wants to meet me, I'll meet him.
Do you think it's a joke? Think it's a joke?
You told me this didn't involve going to jail. Didn't you?
You've gotten everyone in a fix, talking like a big shot.
Look, he wants to meet the MD of Rocket Sales Corporation.
Something's on his mind.
Until we meet, we won't get to know.
What will we gain by finding out what's on his mind? Worry about us.
I am worried about us.
His business is failing, and he'll do anything to save it.
Before he does something, we should know what he'll do.
But how will you meet him?
The same way Porus met Alexander.
A king meets another king. Face to face.
Call him.
Sir, Rocket Sales Corporation's MD is on the line for you.
He was bound to call. Transfer it.
Transferring, sir.
Okay, all set? 1. 2.
Should have counted till 3.
I wouldn't have stayed alive till 3!
-Hello, Mr... -Singh.
Mr. Singh, thank you for calling back, this is Sunil Puri here.
We haven't met but, I'm sure you must've heard my name.
No, not really.
I'm the MD of AYS Computers.
Yes, of course, of course. Sorry, boss. How are you?
Good, very good, very good. Congratulations, boss.
Your business is doing well. Very well, for a small company.
Thank you.
So, what are your future plans?
The future has the plans,
the past has only, empty cans.
Good sense of humour. I must say.
My sense of honour is not bad either.
Of course, of course. So tell me, what are your plans?
Just keep watching.
I have been watching, but forget about the present,
and look into the future. -What do you mean?
I mean, boss, you and I know
that this computer assembly business is a jungle.
That it is.
With the multinationals,
the jungle has only become smaller,
and in one small jungle 2 lions can't survive.
You leaving business?
You can joke well. But can we talk seriously?
Instead of competing, let's work together.
How?
I'll buy out your company.
Is this called working together?
Why talk like a firecracker, when your name is Rocket?
What's your little company's value?
Value is in the name, sell the name. 30, 40 lakh? 50 lakh?
Take 55 lakh and enjoy yourself.
Leave business to experienced people.
What you say is correct.
Let's work together.
I'll buy your company.
You will buy my company?
Why not?
You will buy me out?
Why? Don't you want to work together anymore?
Look, boss, every person has two basic qualities,
to go up and to go down.
And whichever quality wins will determine how he'll win life, right?
Okay, take 60 lakh, you won't get another chance like this.
Ok, I'll ask my colleagues and let you know.
What happened?
Everyone likes to keep servants, he may also love and care for them.
But you're the first person I've met who consults business with them.
Look, you won't get this offer a second time.
This is an offer of a lifetime.
So you sell phone cards as well?
Look, understand this now.
You won't understand things later.
Mr. Puri, in business the one who calls the other first,
is not in a position to threaten.
Look, even my father never spoke to me like this.
For the last time, sell me the company,
take the money or you will regret it!
-Okay, do one thing. -What?
Put the phone down, I am very busy.
Besides, you have phone cards to sell. Right?
I won't spare you, rascal!
If that were the case, you would've gotten it by now.
What have you done?
What?
This is our company, not used furniture!
We're not employees, we're owners.
This company is not for sale and no one can buy it. Whoever it may be!
We sent you to the lion's den to negotiate
and you shoved your hand.
I wasn't afraid to put my hand into the lion's pocket,
then why be afraid to put it in his mouth!
Look, boss, before Puri goes in deeper, let's take his money and leave.
Deeper yourself, idiot. If he buys the company, he'll know
who he's buying from.
Even if Puri wants the company, we can't sell it.
We can leave his company.
We have hands, brains, clients. What else do we need?
I think it's time to sacrifice our monthly pay
and concentrate on our business.
It's difficult to manage two jobs!
I'm okay.
So, tomorrow morning, resignations?
Hello?
Hello, is this Rocket Sales corporation?
Yes, sir, can I help you?
Yes, you can. I wanted to buy a few PCs.
I hope I didn't call too late.
No, no, sir, you're not late at all. We are open 24 hours, sir.
Okay, the number I have called on, is it yours?
Right, sir.
Is this your office number?
Right, sir, in 2 days we'll have a new 24 hours helpline. Just 2 days.
Really? You sell PCs, right?
Not just sell, we service them as well.
We build relationships, sir,
we have the best service in India.
Okay, so how big is your company?
How many people?
We are a small but very dedicated team, sir.
Sir, please meet us personally some day.
Yes, I really want to meet you.
Who is the owner of this company?
Sir, we are all owners.
We have no employees, only partners.
Really?
So, sir, when do you want to meet executives, personally?
Right now.
So, let's meet then.
What were you thinking?
You chickens can fool Sunil Puri?
And with that zero brain!
You were about to become the Vice-President.
You could have told me everything. What was the problem?
You won't understand.
So explain it to me, explain it! I can understand things.
Before I send you to jail, try and explain it to me.
Look, everything that's happened, I started it.
So please talk to me.
Oh!
Mr. Zero has leadership qualities!
Fine, I'll only speak to you. How long has this been going on?
How many orders did you steal from here?
We have not touched any of your clients.
For the facilities that we used in your company,
this is the account, which we were going to reimburse anyway.
Here is the check.
You are giving me a check!
Things are going to go badly for you.
And so that others don't face the same bad fate,
I will have to make it worse for you.
Take a bath.
No, it's okay.
Take a bath, maybe your sins will wash away.
Mine will never!
Whatever happens, I'll deal with it. You don't need to worry about it.
You should have left the job right away.
I have looked after you for 21 years, I would have done it for more.
Why did you have to do a thief's work?
You never taught me how to do a thief's work. If you'd taught me,
I wouldn't be a thief today.
Accept and acknowledge that after signing this agreement,
the trademark 'Rocket' and 'Rocket Sales Corporation',
are now a property of AYS computers in perpetuity worldwide.
Till you keep to this and the other commitments in this contract,
AYS Computers will not file a legal case to prosecute you for forgery,
cheating, fraud and embezzlement.
In addition, you accept and acknowledge that you will not engage
in the computer business formally or informally
either as a company or as an employee for a period of three years.
What is this rubbish?
You want him to sign that he won't work in computer sales
for three years. No business, nor a job?
Yes, that's good, isn't it?
Let's move from here. We'll think of something.
What are you doing?
It's not just me, Sai. There are four other people. They trusted me.
At least they can start their careers again.
The Rocket's fallen?
From 4 o'clock today, your Rocket Sales Corporation is mine.
And all your clients... are also mine!
Congratulations. You have sold your company!
See, everyone has a quality to go up and to go down.
Once I humbly requested you for this name.
And today, you're on your knees like a beggar
selling me this very brand name. What have you learned?
What have you learned, kid?
That a man should stay in his place. Right?
Otherwise the fool belongs nowhere.
You don't have it in you. You are a zero! Get out!
At least take your full and final compensation.
Don't ever become a businessman, you'll fail again!
Yes, sir.
The big news is here sir, yes.
Two big brands have merged, investors will definitely come.
Let me wrap up and hide away my dreams
Let me fold up and bury my desires deep
The heart cannot be a slave
Let the wings be touched by a breeze
Let it soar, let it soar
Let it feel the breeze
Let it wake up to possibilities
Let the wings be touched by a breeze
What is this I am hearing, boss, you sold your company?
Yes, sir.
I didn't think you were the type, Harpreet.
You're sure you made the right decision?
Yes, sir.
Like a kite, the heart's Spinning through a million wants
Let it go I'll show what I'm destined for
Let me fall I'll dust myself off
If you don't fade How will you shine
Let me soar! Let me soar!
Let it feel the breeze
Let it wake up to possibilities
Let the wings be touched by a breeze
Sir, my name is Rajess Das, new Sales Manager of AYS
Rocket Sales Corporation.
Rocket Sales is now part of AYS,
so I dropped by for an introduction.
Sir, why don't we continue this, somewhere else, over lunch?
Let me soar!
Let it feel the breeze
Let it wake up to possibilities
Let the wings be touched by a breeze
What's going on?
Nothing. We are meeting their clients one by one.
But when are you getting their orders?
These clients have strange expectations, sir!
Ask for all sorts of things.
These Rocket's clients are used to some other type of service.
But we'll handle it, sir.
This is Kumar, Giri's replacement.
Service will happen but help the sales team! That's the real job.
Of course, sir
-Hi. -Hi.
Sir, brands keep coming and going. But, the brand that we provide you, sir...
Trust me on one thing...
Sir, Wajahat's order is not going to come.
Some of Rocket's other clients are not looking too hopeful either.
We haven't benefited from Rocket Corporation's clients.
We haven't gained from this buyout.
The liabilities have gone up.
Salaries of new engineers apart.
Sir, Rajesh said that Rocket Sales was about
to receive a big order from Inamdar's company.
If we get that, then I can manage the remaining accounts.
Look, Inamdar, you are one of us.
I need this order. Whatever has to be done, I'll do it.
What about service?
Service is my guarantee, you've known me for a long time.
It's a new team but the company is the same.
Yes, the company is the same. You still don't understand.
You've bought Rocket Sales's name,
but you've let its people go, you've been foolish.
Look, let bygones be bygones.
Let's start a new relationship.
I'm canceling all future orders.
And I assume the rest of the Rocket Sales' clients
have either done the same, or are about to.
Mr. Puri, at some time your ways
changed the geography of this business.
Don't take it badly, but your way is now history.
Good day!
Who are you? Who are you?
-Who are you? -Sir.
What are you made of?
What is it with which you're fooling everyone? What is it?
Who do you think you are to sell for so little?
One's back breaks, but still one doesn't make profit.
You sold your company. Who won?
You're on the street!
I've been selling computers for 10 years, 10 years before that, fax machines,
and 5 years before that, electronic typewriters.
I have this business running in my blood.
But I made one mistake.
The person I should have made salesman of the year,
I kicked him out and made him a competitor.
No problem, I made a mistake. I had fun.
I'll straighten it out.
Come, I'll give you your job back.
Vice-President's position is still open. Come back.
You told me that every person has a quality to go up
and also to go down. And the road,
I took the one going down because you never left me a choice.
I didn't know anything. But slowly I learned that in business
there are no tricks, no schemes, and no magic.
Just one thing. People!
Those who work with you, your customers.
But you never saw them as people, you saw them as numbers.
Who achieved what number, who broke a target.
But I never really understood numbers. I always saw people.
Who's happy. Who's sad. Who does good work. Who enjoys what work.
You know what's most amazing? When people are happy,
numbers increase on their own.
Because business is not numbers, business is people. Only people.
You took my company. No problem.
It came from your company and went back to you.
No problem. But what I have learned, you can't take.
With that I can build 10 companies, and I will.
But what will you do, sir? All that you know has become zero.
Who will you put a zero next to, sir?
All I wanted was a chance in your company.
You didn't give me that. And the way you're giving it to me,
I don't want it.
Wish me the best of luck, Sir.
I couldn't be like you, but I became a man.
I'll see you on the field one day.
I have never seen a bigger zero than you.
It ended up in such a place that the company changed.
And when I removed it, the customers changed.
My people cannot handle your customers,
I have brains to understand that.
And a young kid has defeated me, I can accept that, too.
Do you have one rupee?
Here, I'm returning your company.
I couldn't digest it.
Want me to spell it out?
You won, I lost.
When blood and sweat are printed on paper together,
the table becomes a bed, and the office a home,
hunger and thirst are forgotten and children are neglected,
only then a company is made.
That isn't given away as alms,
especially not to a man like me.
And a man like me never takes it.
I'm leaving you with your life's biggest lesson.
I never gave my father anything for free.
What you're doing,
I don't know if it's business or not
but never become a businessman, you'll fail again.
I'll see you on the field.
The delivery is in 4 days.
Mr. Mishra can you please follow up on that delivery...
Can I speak to Mr. Saxena?
Yes, I'll hold, ma'am.
Good job, Nitin!
This is Nitin from Rocket Sales.
Hi. Rocket Sales Corporation.
