Oh, man, my back is killing me…
What godforsaken place is this, brother?
It belongs to Brother Nalli's friend.
Closed for the last one year. Enjoy.
Bro…
Oh, dear.
I can't live here!
It's so dirty…
Did you think they'd put us up in a five-star hotel?
No, but is a clean place too much to ask for?
Look at all the flies buzzing around!
Your highness, it's only a matter of two days.
Once this cargo worth 60 lakhs is sold, you can stay wherever you want.
And you, shorty.
Can you do it in two days?
If the lock is tricky, it could take four-five days.
What are you saying, man?
Hey!
You two, come here.
Quickly!
That's the kitchen. Stocked with biscuits and noodles.
Enough food to last for four days.
Why four days?
Won't we be done in two?
Stop complaining!
Brother Nalli thought ahead for you.
And if your work is done in two days, then take the remaining noodles and enjoy!
Understood? Don't crib.
"Enjoy…"
This is your bedroom.
What do you think?
Five stars.
Oh, God!
Hey, Kuria.
What about mattresses and pillows?
Are you here for a holiday?
You want mattresses and pillows, he has a problem with the flies…
Should I build a swimming pool for you too?
No need.
That's out of Nalli's league.
Payment?
When will we get it?
As always, at the time of delivery.
Brother will make it himself.
-But this time tell Nalli-- -Oi!
What's with this "Nalli" business?
Is he your cousin or something? Huh?
Please address him with respect.
Right.
Please tell Brother Nalli not to keep me hanging like last time.
This time I want my money immediately.
Please?
You'll get it, man. How much he whines!
Oi!
Hey!
If you can't get it open in two days, son…
I'll tear you a new one, okay?
Now I don't feel like it.
Do what you want.
What?
You son of a…
Chandan, wait! What are you doing?
Wait! Look, let it go!
-What did you say? -Let it go!
Hey, shorty! I'm talking to you!
Kuria, let me talk.
He's a kid! Just let it go!
-Control yourself! -He's a kid? Fucker.
What did you say, huh?
You think you're too smart?
How did you do it so fast, yo?
I spoke to it politely, gave it respect, and befriended it.
It opened for me.
What a talented boy we have here!
Kuria, buddy…
I can't have noodles for meals.
I told you already, I need fresh food. Like samosas.
I will shower you with samosas, darling!
Come on, let's offload the cargo.
"Shower you with samosas."
Boys, I'm going out to get something to eat.
Do you want anything?
Yes.
Bring back 90 ounces of common sense for yourself.
Dude, did your mom-dad not teach you how to talk respectfully?
Don't you dare bring up my dad, okay?
Brother Nandan, he's just saying it as a friend.
Let it go.
Nalli will come tomorrow and pay everyone.
Then you can go and eat wherever you like.
And listen up, fucktard.
I don't know who "Nandan" is.
My name is Chandan.
We are in the midst of a deadly second wave and
state governments are trying their best to ensure that
we keep a lid on the spread of this virus.
One of the strategies that have been adopted
by several state governments are lockdowns.
We started with weekend lockdowns
but now complete lockdowns have been imposed…
-Tea? -Brother Chandan!
Brother, I've already told you multiple times.
My wife is pregnant.
I needed the money urgently, which is why I took this job.
But the due date is still a couple of weeks away, right?
So? Am I supposed to live here till then?!
-We had a deal for two days, brother! -Look, Chandu…
The government didn't ask me before imposing a lockdown.
So, extinguish that fire inside of you. Okay?
If you use that tone with me…
Brother, it's not like that.
You're a big man, and I trust you.
Don't be fooled by my tone. I was only making a request.
Remember, Chandan. The cargo is worth 60 lakhs--
Fucking dick.
Hi, Suvi.
How are you feeling?
Where are you?
They say there's going to be another lockdown!
Yes, I know, I heard.
I'm just about finished here…
I'm just waiting on the money from Nalli…
Damn that Nalli! I told you not to get involved with him!
He's gonna screw you over one day!
Suvi, I told you, this is the last time.
Okay, you tell me.
How else will we manage the expenses?
Hospital bills, medication, etc.?
If they lock it down like last year--
No, it's not like last time.
I've checked.
And listen, don't let the tension get to you. Or the baby.
Doctor Madam has already warned you.
Hey, Suvi…
No, I'm fine.
Just come back.
Is there nothing else to eat?
There's some shit. Do you wanna eat it?
Brother. Halve that portion.
Nalli said it's still going to be a while.
We need to ration the food.
Just take all of mine.
I'll sleep with a wet towel on my stomach, okay?
-No, I'll do it! -Chill.
Sometimes, fasting is good for health.
Cool. Then you do it.
Here.
Go for it.
No manners at all.
Here.
Not in that plate!
-He licked it-- -Just eat!
There's no food left anyway.
Brother Nandan…
Do you have any games on your phone?
Please?
Say something?
Son, if I start talking…
I won't stop.
Meaning?
Meaning…
sleep, you fucker.
Brother Nandan…
Because if there are gaps in your being,
addiction will slowly start creeping in and fill those gaps.
Smoking, drinking,
hard drugs, your smartphone, your television, they're all waiting.
Once you control yourself,
you'll realize that you are the most important person in your life.
You, your spouse, your money, comes first.
Only the man who's able to master this…
is able to truly fill himself, his entire being…
with the divine.
Know that you are a divine being.
And that's why you come first.
Brother, what's the harm in trying?
Just pay a thug some money.
He'll drop the cargo right at your doorstep.
What nonsense you're spouting. Were you born yesterday?
It's stolen cargo! Nowadays checking is also more frequent.
You know this.
Okay, how much more time?
Two days.
That's what you said last time!
Only the man who's able to master this…
is able to truly fill himself, his entire being…
with the divine.
Know that you are a divine being.
And that's why you come first.
Don't lie to me!
It's easy to tell me to "not worry"!
Have you seen what they're saying on TV?
Suvi, please relax…
-Doctor Madam has said-- -She can go to hell!
If you're not here before the delivery…
I swear on the baby…
you won't see its face as long as you live!
Once you truly control yourself,
you realize that you are the most important person in your life.
…is able to truly fill himself, his entire being
with the divine.
Know that you are a divine being.
And that's why you come first.
Hey!
Brother Chandu!
Motherfucker! Do you think this is your dad's wedding
where you can shovel as much food as you want down your throat?
Brother Chandan! What are you doing?
This asshole finished all the food!
And he stuffed mud into the packets, motherfucker!
Brother Chandan, let it go!
There is still rice and biscuits for you to stuff down your throat!
-Brother Chandan, stop! -Will you eat the dry rice with your shit?
Stop! Brother Chandan!
No fighting!
Shut up unless you want me to come up there and hit you!
No violence.
We have food.
-We do? -Where is it?
Where is it, bro?
Near that tree.
There's Chena.
China?
Chena!
It's from last season, but it's good.
And there…
there's Karuppa.
Cheera?
What's "Cheera"?
I don't know the Hindi word for it.
And there's Kachil over there.
That tastes good as well.
Where is it?
How do you know all this?
My old man taught me.
Shall we?
There?
You.
Get to work.
First, you treat me like shit.
Then use me for free labor?
I won't do it.
-I'll dig your grave right here! -I won't do it!
Enough. Let's go.
Please keep him under control.
-How can he talk to me like that? -Leave it.
-He's stressed. -And I'm not?
Come on.
I'm going beat him up so hard, you just try and stop me.
What do you think?
But I don't have a problem!
Look, you're my healthy young boy.
You won't be affected by the virus anyway.
I know that, big brother. But I have a request.
I can't deal with the food here.
Can you send some of auntie's pudding, like you usually do?
I'm trying.
Don't worry.
Fucker, Dimple!
-Where's my phone? -Brother, I'll call you later.
What is it, dick?
But please get me out of here. I can't stay here anymore.
If you can't stay then do one thing…
Find a customer.
Sell all the cargo and keep all the money.
What are you saying?
How will I find customers in this lockdown?
Right.
So, let me get on with my job.
Alright?
Brother Chandan.
What will you do with the money?
What will I do?
First, I will buy a new Narayan Peth silk saree for my Suvi.
She loves that kind.
After that, I'll invest some…
Keep some for my kid's education.
-Education is necessary. Right, brother? -Yes.
Otherwise, there's a danger of ending up like this fucker!
What about you?
I have to pay off a loan.
First, I'll do that.
Then I'll open up a gas agency of my own.
Like big brother.
You know that the gas agency isn't Nalli's main business, right?
Yes, I know that.
But why would I care?
I'll keep mine clean.
Good.
Good decision.
-With my money, I-- -No one asked you.
-Brother. -Yes?
I'll hire a personal chef with my money.
Who will make hot samosas for me day and night.
My life is set.
Small men, small thoughts.
I'll make you my partner. I'll buy gas from your gas agency.
We'll be rolling in dough. He's going to get jealous.
No, good decision.
Yes, good, good.
Dumbass.
What the hell!
What's wrong?
Better get used to it, brother.
Brother Chandu?
Some of these people who go in the ambulance…
don't come back.
My mom went.
She didn't come back.
I couldn't even comprehend it then.
That my mother wouldn't be around anymore, was never a concept in my head.
My father toiled a lot on the farm.
He'd go in the morning, work, come back, and sleep.
And do the same thing all over again every day.
But I didn't want to work on the farm.
What would you do?
I drank.
A lot.
Brother Chandu…
you finish a bottle in ten days, right?
I used to drink ten bottles a day.
My dad used to beat me. A lot.
"Useless, stupid, rascal…"
He'd call me a lazy bastard and beat me.
Was he wrong?
Not really.
I felt a little bad too.
I thought I should do something for my dad.
What did you do?
I took all his money…
and gambled it on the lottery.
For the bumper prize.
Did you win?
Lost it all.
Bad decision, brother.
Yeah.
But I got a life lesson out of it.
The first thing I did was stop drinking.
Completely. Cold turkey.
Is that why you watch that video day and night?
It's motivation.
To stay away from alcohol.
And that loan you were talking about?
You want to return the money you took from your dad?
Yes.
Nice.
Good decision.
Nice my ass.
What will you tell him?
How did you get so much money?
Sorry.
Bad decision.
Beds are getting scarce, Chandu.
The doctor said there's no guarantee we'll get one for the delivery.
How can they do that?
They can't deny patients who need help.
Isn't it the doctor's job to attend to everyone?
I don't know…
Let's see.
Okay, I'm hanging up.
Suvi…
Don't touch my phone, don't you get it?
What do you want from me?
Say you're sorry again!
Should I say it on WhatsApp? I'll still need your phone for that!
Hey! What's going on?
What are you doing?
Hey, brother, stay out of it!
Since the beginning, he has been annoying the crap out of me!
Just calm down, man!
He's a kid! Leave him alone!
Him? He's a kid? This fucker--
Dimple!
Dimple! Wait!
Dimple! Wait, man! Stop!
-Stop, man! -Bloody psychopath!
Dimple, you fucker, wait up!
Brother Chandan, please play nice!
Dimple wait, you cunt!
Wait up!
Don't do it!
-Let me go! -I'll get this fucker!
-I'll kill you! -Try it, asshole!
Brother Chandan, have you gone crazy?
You think you're Usain Bolt?
Stop it, please!
Stop messing with me, okay?
I'll fuck you up the ass, motherfucker!
Jerk!
What? What is it?
Get up!
Come here.
Okay, that's close enough. Six feet.
What were you doing?
We were playing, madam.
Playing?
Madam, our village is close by.
We thought we'd head out and get some fresh air…
Fresh air?
That's what the virus is doing too. You know that, right?
Where are your masks?
Madam, this is my area.
Even dogs don't venture here. Why would we need masks?
-Oh, it's your area? -Yeah.
-Umesh? -Yes, madam?
Take them in.
Let's take them to our area.
Madam, I live close by!
-I'll get masks for everyone! -I live here!
-I have bought masks for everyone! -Please, one second, sir.
-Madam, we are very poor people, please. -I beg you, sir!
-Sir, please forgive us. -We're poor people, sir!
-Hey! Stop! -Sir, please let us go!
-Umesh! -Let me go!
-Make them a ticket. For 600 rupees. -Yes, madam.
And you, come here.
That's it. Six feet.
Wear this and play.
Okay? Understood?
Yes.
Umesh, make a ticket for 200 rupees.
Yes, madam.
Thank you, madam.
I'm only fining you for one person.
Next time, you'll go straight to jail.
Alright?
Am I clear?
-Yes. -Yes.
Off you go.
Thank you, madam.
Hey!
What do you want?
Please give me two samosas. Here's ten rupees.
What?
-Can I have two samosas for ten rupees? -Get out of here!
-Please, just two-- -Do you wanna get arrested?
-Buzz off! -But you have six…
Scram!
He wants samosas, apparently.
Get lost!
Brother Chandan, please open the door…
Brother Chandan, I made a mistake! I won't do it again.
Look, brother.
Get me out of here.
Otherwise, I'll burn all your cargo and kill your minions.
Chandu, I need time.
You have a day.
Okay, Chandu. Do whatever you want.
You want to burn the cargo? The factory? Do it.
Brother, I feel claustrophobic in the dark! Please!
Brother!
Brother Chandu, let it go.
Let him out.
Look, brother, I respect you a lot.
But I'm done with him.
I don't want to go to jail because of him!
-Brother Chandan! -But nothing happened, right?
So, should I wait around for something to go wrong?
Brother, my wife isn't getting a hospital bed.
-Let it go. Just forget about it. -Chandan, please! I'm claustrophobic!
-Open it! -Forget about it?
Just like you did?
Do you even know if your dad is alive or dead?
Why did you hit my face?
Because someone should have done that when you were a child!
Brother Chandan…
I'm not feeling well. I'm claustrophobic! Let me out!
Brother Chandan!
Brother!
Self…
Divine…
You…
-Divine… -You…
Divine.
You.
Self.
Divine.
-Divine. -Self.
You.
Divine.
You.
-Self. -Divine.
Brother, what are you doing?
Hey!
Look, I'll beat you up!
Drop it! Hey!
My brother, it is worth lakhs of rupees! What are you doing?
Stop!
What?
You said I didn't know if my dad is dead or alive.
You said that.
You know why I don't know?
Do you know?
Yes, because he used to hit you…
Ajit, don't do this.
Hitting me was justified.
I was wrong.
But after beating me so badly…
he didn't say sorry once.
Not once did he try to show me I was wrong, with love.
Sorry.
Hello.
Hospital?
Which hospital?
But the delivery was scheduled for next week?
Right now?
Hey!
My wife had a daughter.
Ajit!
What's wrong?
Nalli's dead.
Corona?
I don't know.
Maybe.
He was in the hospital.
But he was a rich man…
Brother…
The ambulance takes people…
but sometimes it brings them back, right?
Brother Chandan…
You want to meet your child, right?
I want to go too.
To my village.
I can't leave my father alone.
What about you?
What about me?
Uncle Nalli used to feed me, that's it…
So, why didn't you leave earlier?
I thought we were a team,
so I should stick with you guys…
Brother Nandan…
Will you buy me a phone?
I'll buy it online and ship it to your place.
Can I come and take it from yours?
My house?
Brudder, won't we go see the baby?
Listen. It's not "brudder".
"Brother."
Okay. Brother.
Look.
I'm Chandan, this is Chetta.
I'm Dimple.
Who named you "Dimple"?
I named myself.
