Thief
Stop
Eenie meenie minie mo
eighty ninety and a full hundred
Fucker
If you think this child is the thief, think again.
Nothing here is as it seems.
A theft took place here
thief ran away
Ran away
Bastard
who's got who’s money
who will get duped
Catch him
who will hang from the noose
The world watches in wonder
Catch him
The real thief is this man,
Siddhant Rastogi and he has pulled off a heist
which this country has never seen before.
Thief
eighty ninety and a full hundred
But
it doesn’t make sense starting the story with his collar
Instead let us start it with their shroud
Are you alone or are there any more family members present?
This is Bhargav Sharma,
Siddhant’s best friend and the true mastermind of this heist.
And these are his parents.
Please seek blessings.
First from your father and then from your mother.
How did everything happen so suddenly?
Sharma?
Mr Nazreth, please come here and serve him some tea.
Yes
Here, take some tea
They always served tea to everyone.
One day even the manager mentioned…
Mr Sharma
Mr Sharma, the tea bill is very high..
So they stopped drinking tea
But didn’t stop serving it.
A month later, the manager himself brought them tea.
I bow to you O Mahamaya,
the one who resides in Sripetha and is worshipped by Suras
The customers would sit and spend time
And as a result they opened an account of some sort
and profited the bank.
Did you know what was their biggest life savings?
Their integrity.
Look
It’s all burned to ashes, brother.
Hello
Yes
I’m speaking from JNC Bank, Jabalpur, West branch,
a crowd has gathered outside and are agitating,
we won’t be able to open without your help.
Don’t worry,
I am sending reinforcement
Stay right there.
we are waiting sir
Listen
The situation is unclear to me as well.
I haven’t been able to get in touch with headquarters.
All I know from the morning news is that
RBI has stopped our banks operations.
I was told we have
to limit withdrawals to Rs 10,000/- per account holder.
The people outside the bank had gone mad.
Break open the door
Look
I have called the police,
or else the mob outside will rip us to shreds.
Come on! Come on! Come faster
Hello
I am reporting live from JNC Bank.
It's chaotic here.
People are unable to comprehend
where they have lost all their money.
What about my daughter’s future?
These bankers have run away with our money!
I had saved every penny
and sold my jewellery
and invested here in hopes of doubling my returns from the bank
I don’t know what will happen now
Even the police couldn't control the mob
Please come, brother. Take a seat.
What can I do for you?
I need my money
Yes, how much?
All of it.
Forgive me but as per new policy,
I can only let you withdraw Rs 10,000/-
Please fill this slip
and collect the amount from that counter
Won't you offer me for tea today
I wish you had fed me poison…
I have to pay the fees of my son's final exam.
Where will I get it from?
I've heard your son is the
All-India banking exam topper
Yes
Just like you, he will also sit in a bank
and scam poor people off their hard-earned money.
What will we do?
Do you have an answer?
Mohini, please control yourself!
The neighbors,
friends,
even the shopkeepers in the market,
everyone who knew them
stopped talking to them.
Get lost
Whenever I called
Father said everything was okay.
Always asked me to focus on my studies.
Salary
pension, retirement fund, gratuity
brother, it's all gone.
How are you, son?
The house given by the bank to them, where they lived,
one day they received a notice to vacate it.
That was their breaking point.
The bank had promised
that this house would eventually be theirs.
They had been paying EMIs for years for it.
A day later
someone found the door open
and then the neighbors came and
found them dead.
No one, apart from you, came for their last rites.
What do you want to do next, Partner?
First, I need to immerse their ashes
After that, I have no idea
Let's go together in the morning.
I will go alone.
I liked it but I don't know about your mother
No, I don't like it so why will I make it?
Good morning, my love!
You are always waiting for a chance to sneakily kiss me.
Me and sneaky?
You will never find a more angelic boyfriend than me
Really?!
Hmm.
Mister. Maintain eye contact!
Siddhant...
How long will I need to keep sneaking
into your house like this with a duplicate key?
The duplicate is with me,
you have the real one.
Stop joking!
Okay, okay! No more jokes.
You promised
you'd talk to your father
Yes. I'm trying to
but what do you think?
I will just walk up to my father
and he will agree to me getting married to you.
No way! He will slap me.
Beyond that, you know your own father.
Oh god, how does he always know we're talking about him?
Yes father.
Just called to check up.
Thought I'd ask how the classes are going.
Yes father. They are going great.
My child
We take the slogan 'teach the girl child' slogan very seriously
Yes
But the slogan also has a second part?
Yes
What is it?
Save the girl child
So, you will invite your PhD coaching class teacher home tonight
I would like to talk to him.
I am keeping the phone.
Yes, father.
He was going to find out someday!
And how long was I going to keep studying
in order to escape an arranged marriage?
Yeah, yeah...
He has called you home.
I think he's finally going to agree!
Hmm
My friend Rastogi, where are you taking me?
To my farmhouse, brother.
I have something important to share.
These conversations of yours never end
Yes, but my love for you also never ends brother.
Come now
Smile a little brother!
Sit, sit!
Don't stop me today, Partner.
Today, your brother is going to drink till he falls.
For what joy?
most people drink when they break up with their love,
I am going to drink in anticipation of my break up.
How much?
Keep going,
yes that’s it,
now fill yours too.
Yes
Yeah, the snacks too
Here take some snacks.
Is Rhea leaving you?
Cheers!
No buddy she is not going anywhere
How many times do I have to tell you to go talk to her dad?
I did go to talk to her dad.
Hello sir.
You're a young good-looking man,
educated too.
Thank you, Father,
Hey,
don’t rush to create a relationship between us.
I have no issues with you,
but Goddess Laxmi does,
and I am her devotee.
But uncle we have a printing press business.
Uncle?
You’re smart too.
But the business is your father's, right?
I've heard a lot about him,
at home, at work,
no one really listens to you.
So, you're going to have to beg your father
to give anything to my daughter.
I've raised her lavishly and with lots of love
after her mother passed away.
Now that she's finishing her PhD,
I think it’s time for her to get married.
Uncle?
For now, you have my sympathy,
when you have the money, come.
then and only then will she be with you.
Come when you have become wealthy,
and I will seat you graciously
and feed you too.
And listen
do not even dream of running away with her.
I will hit you in such a place,
You will be of no use to my daughter.
Aye moron!
Okay, okay,
leave all this!
Why didn't you talk to your father?
Love made me gather the courage for that too my friend.
I chickened out in front of him
and said something else.
I wanted to ask you about something...
Speak
Why don't you look at my proposal for the new German machines?
It would better the business!
Let's change these
Did you all hear what the prince has to say?
Tomorrow if your father becomes old,
will you change him too?
No no
Just take one look at my proposal.
I will take care of all the orders you don't need to worry about it.
The only thing I am worried about is that
the only thing you will ever do with your hands is scratch your balls.
Why is everyone after your balls, brother?
Either someone's squeezing them
or shooting them.
Brother
Right now I feel like they are in my mouth
for that kind of money,
I’ll have to rob a bank.
Nowadays,
to rob a bank
First you have to open a bank
Wow.
To rob a bank,
you would have to
open a bank
You say the weirdest things.
To rob a bank
you have to open a bank.
Brother?
Come, get up!
Brother?
Come, get up!
I was making a large one, dude!
What are you doing, brother?
Have you completely lost it?
Huh?
We were crazy
now we've regained our senses.
I've lost all my alcohol buzz.
Obviously, if you dunk your head in cold water
you would lose your buzz.
That's great.
Listen
let's open a bank!
Sharma, you've lost your drinking capacity.
Its not the alcohol talking,
I mean it, let's open a bank!
THE NATION'S FIRST FAKE BANK!
Fake bank,
Real bank,
This bank,
That bank,
what do we even know about opening a bank?
Yes
Chants a mantra to Goddess Saraswati
Sharma?
Oh, Goddess Saraswati, please protect me.
Please free me of my ignorance.
Sharma?
Sharma, I love you!
But what are you talking about?
Mother and Father
Would always recite this shloka before leaving the house.
And when they would reach the bank,
They would recite a different shloka.
I bow to you, O Mahamaya,
The one who resides in Sripetha and is worshipped by Suras
The one who holds Shanka, Chakra and Gadha in her hands,
I bow to her The Goddess Mahalakshmi
Oh, Goddess Lakshmi,
you are the beginning of all things prosperous.
I bow down to your lotus feet.
Mother and Father always said
we've strayed far from Goddess Saraswati.
Even though she is the elder than Goddess Lakshmi
and Goddess Durga.
Meaning you can achieve money and power both!
Only if you gain knowledge.
One minute, one minute, Partner!
First, you shock me with this
Do you agree or not?
And now
You're confusing me between
Goddess Lakshmi and Goddess Saraswati.
Be clear!
I have all the knowledge to open and run a bank.
Now it is time to use this strength to turn knowledge to wealth
It’s time...
