-Clean the place. Get it ready.
-I'm on it, brother.

-Aunty, I'm off.
-Take your lunchbox, Shafique.

-Here's the poem I wrote.
-I see. Okay.

-Will you publish it?
-I'll try.

-Hey, Irfan, you sleepwalking?
-Get lost.

Very good.

Nadeem. Block the light.

Here.

The beam's gone.

When a poet refers to himself
in a poem, it's called maqta.

Write it down.

-"The train we're traveling in..."
-"The train we're traveling in..."

-We have bookings for a matinee.
-Okay.

-Where were you, bro?
-Hey, Nasir.

We're running late.

NASHIK BUS DEPOT

MUMBAI - NASHIK

Come on. Let's go.

What is this?

You still owe me 630 rupees.

Hi. Don't you recognize me?

Oh, hi. Don't you recognize me?

Praveen, the reels are here!

PRABHAT SNACK CENTER

Come on, Irfan!

Hop on!

Six tickets, bro.

We'll miss the beginning.

They're here. Come on, get in.

-Hey! Gambling and smoking not allowed.
-Okay.

Brother.

-Paint his shoulders well.
-I'm on it.

What, Nasir? You're early.

I had to pick up some photos.

Siraj bro will show these
to the producers in Mumbai. Look.

They turned out great.

It's Kimi's cutout, but it looks real.

No one is gonna
give you a break with these.

Siraj bro himself hasn't found work
in Mumbai yet. Ask him.

Well, work will come our way.

One should do what makes one happy.

Only in movies do people quit their jobs
to chase their dreams.

Stop living in a fantasy world.

In real life, one has to make a living,
put food on the table.

What a daydreamer!

Is this worth showing off?

Move.

Just sold eight tickets,
and dreaming of eight million.

-It's a matinee, brother.
-So what?

They're running a matinee, too.
Look at the lines.

We're the only ones showing
Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin movies.

What's the reason?

Did Charlie Chaplin's dying mother
make you promise to play his movies?

Nadeem! Close the place today.

And you go to Nashik
and get us a new hit movie.

-It's only been two weeks.
-I'm warning you.

I'll have to sell your VCR
to feed the family.

Don't ever play these crappy movies again.

Isn't that amazing?

Like a soul flying to heaven.

You want to fly high
in one of those, don't you?

Why think of flying high?
In Malegaon, you'll die

Why think of flying high?
In Malegaon, you'll die

Why think of flying high?
In Malegaon, you'll die

Why think of flying high?

Bravo! That was good!

-How are you, bro?
-Fantastic.

Do you have Raja Hindustani?

Yes, bro. I'll get it.

-It's one hell of a movie.
-Isn't it?

Nihal bro will be happy.

Nihal bro? Happy? Not a chance.

HARAM AND HALAL TAPES AVAILABLE

Shafique, pay him.

Bro, what are these haram and halal tapes?

Look, you need two VCRs for this. Okay?

I play it on one
and make a copy on the other.

When an adult scene comes up,

I pause the recording.

So it won't get recorded.
Then fast-forward it.

Keep going.

Keep going.

Keep going.

And then we start recording again.

I'll show you the recorded copy.

How's that?

That's it, bro.

-What did you do? Show me again.
-Okay.

-Nasir.
-Hmm?

What are you doing with two VCRs?

Hold your horses, man.

Freeze! Put down the gun!

Or I'll shoot your head.

Can't you hear that? Put down the gun!

Superman!

Watch it now.

Success!

No more blah-blah! You're a magician.

Back-to-back action.

Amazing, bro. It's amazing.

You got into the movie
and made one of your own?

Amazing!

Four in one! Four in one!

First time in the market! Four in one.

Come on!

Selling like hotcakes!
Four in one! First time in the market!

Four in one! Come on!

Selling like hotcakes!
Four in one! First time in the market!

Four in one! Come on, guys!

Next show in five minutes.
Hurry up, make your way in.

It's worth every penny! It's fantastic!

Let's watch it again, bro.

Sure, let's go.
It's highlights back-to-back.

And here comes

the Shah Rukh Khan of Khandesh,
Asif Albela!

You guys, move. Please sit here.

Hey! You, cheapskates of Malegaon!

You're here for the free meal, right?

So am I. But that guy,

he keeps helping himself to gulab jamuns.

Yes, I'm talking about you!
I've been counting.

Even his wife is embarrassed,

what will people think of him
after he's had six servings.

You know what she did?

She pulled him aside and yelled at him.

-"Hey, man! Don't you have any shame?"
-I have all his cassettes.

Shall we go and talk to him?

Forget it.
Why would he wanna meet us nobodies?

Let's focus on our job.

"Why should I be ashamed?

"I told them
I was taking these for my wife."

Bravo, man!

Don't feel shy. You're married now.

Please come closer.

Who invited you here?

My mother is crazy about Asif Albela.
So, we just gatecrashed.

Do me a favor.

-Get me a few gulab jamuns.
-Okay.

Excuse me. Thank you.

It won't work if you continue to be shy.

You're married now, right?

Here, have some gulab jamuns.

Come and hold the light for me.

-Point it at the bride.
-Okay.

When I count to three,
give him a bite of the gulab jamun, okay?

Okay. One, two, three.

Wow, amazing.

Very sweet. Beautiful.

Lovely.

Turn it off now.

Keep the light here.

-What a shot, isn't it?
-First class.

So, how are your studies going?

Awesome.

Mother wants me to get married.
She says I'm old enough.

How old are you?

Don't you know
it's impolite to ask a girl her age?

Anyway, I'm 19.

-What do you want to study?
-Law.

-Law?
-Hmm.

You can continue your studies
after marriage, too.

Just find someone who values education.

Do you value education?

Aunty is right.

Too much education
makes girls lose their minds.

Of course.

If you're looking for a dumb girl, Mallika
will be perfect. You guys will rock.

Here she comes.

-I can sneak out today. Wanna go?
-Yes.

We can't sneak around like this for long.

You must come and meet my family soon.

My father is lining up suitors.

I'll talk to my brother Nihal.

The video parlor is doing well, too.

It's a hit.

Don't worry.

Okay?

Okay.

I love Bruce Lee.

Bruce Lee's kick from '78

is still a hit in '97 in Malegaon.

Why did he die so young?

He isn't dead.

Look. He's jumping around,
fit as a fiddle.

-Brother, can I have a word?
-Yes?

If you could meet Mallika's...

What are they doing here?

-Hurry.
-Yes, sir.

-Hello, sir.
-Hello, sir. What's the matter, sir?

What's wrong, sir?

Sir, there's a show going on.

-Sir, the show is going on.
-Smash it all!

-Turn on the lights!
-What's wrong, sir?

Why are you smashing it, sir?

-Why are you smashing it, sir?
-Sir, please don't!

Why are you destroying it?

-You won't stop pirating movies, right?
-What? That's nonsense!

Sir, please listen to me. Sir, just...

Sir, what are you doing?

Sir, why did you tear the screen?

Cutting and joining reels
is called piracy.

You could end up in jail
under Section 415.

Sir, I had no clue about this.

-Don't you have any Hindi movies?
-We do, sir.

Hey, Nadeem!

Give it to him.

Is it a good one?

It's a hit murder mystery, sir.
You'll enjoy it.

Let's go.

Kajol is the murderer, sir!

Kajol is the murderer!

Very good.

Now let them watch the film!

We'd just started getting an audience.

But we're cursed.

Is there a lot of damage, bro?

They destroyed everything.

And sealed the place.

Bloody assholes.

The movies I was playing
wouldn't ever come here.

Jackie Chan might turn up here,
but never his movies.

And people are pissed
that I'm playing those movies here.

They talk about piracy.
Tell me, what piracy?

What should we watch then?

Ask Siraj bro to take you to Mumbai.

I'll come along.

Thousands of Nasirs
roam the streets of Mumbai.

Siraj bro only told me.

We can't go to Mumbai,
so we'll have to bring Mumbai here.

What do you mean?

Let's make a movie here.

In Malegaon?

In Malegaon.

Our movie, our theater.
Piracy won't be an issue.

We won't have to worry about the police
or competition with other parlors.

It's possible, bro.

We'll take you to another movie...

UMBRELLA - CHAIR

...set.

Anil Kapoor and Juhi Chawla
are rehearsing.

Now the camera is being set up
on the trolley to capture the movement.

CAMERA - TROLLEY

The director is
excitedly explaining the shot

to the cameraman.

You're gonna make a movie?

-In Malegaon?
-Yes, man!

He has a camera, I can edit.

I have a video parlor
and you guys can act.

I can. It's doable.

Do what? Have you lost it?

You're a loom worker.

I sell dry fruits.

Farogh is a heartbroken, penniless writer.

And you've been jobless forever.

And we'll make a movie?

Farogh, let's go to Kabul tomorrow
and make Khuda Gawah.

-Let give it a try.
-What are you saying, Nasir?

-We can do it. Farogh.
-What?

It's my time to play carrom.
You do what you want to do.

I have an exam at school, bro.

What carrom, bro?

Not carrom, Carrom Super Six.
It takes place once a month.

-I'll get going, too.
-Me, too.

Raju, I'll pay you
the day the movie is made.

-I'll pay you on the second, Raju.
-Heard that before.

I'll make the movie with or without you.

Malegaon certainly isn't
lacking for people.

If you won't, someone else will.

Bro.

I don't know about the others,
but I'm with you.

Right now, I have to get to work.

But I'm with you.

How will we make the movie
if you just keep on working?

I'll work nights there and days with you.

Promise, Shafique?

I swear, Nasir.

But I gotta go now.

I really want to act.

Do you have a role for me?

Give me a role and I'll wipe your debt.

He's like a broken record!

People slog for decades in Mumbai,

but it either gets shelved,
or doesn't get released.

And if it's released, no one watches it.

That's why I'm making it here.

You won't get a penny from me.
Do what you want to do.

You heard me?

I don't want your money.
I have 12,000 rupees.

You can't make shit for 12,000.

He wants to make a movie with 12,000.

Nasir.

Don't bring up this nonsense
at their place tonight.

Mallika's father
doesn't even listen to the radio.

We'll be humiliated.

I hear the police
has shut down your video parlor.

-No, that...
-We'll open it again.

I'll be making a movie soon.

Then there will be no piracy issues.

-You're making a movie?
-Yes.

No, that's just a hobby.

Like how girls enjoy knitting.

We're opening a garment store
for him in the main market.

After that, God willing...

So you'll run a garment store?

That's good.

Well...

Third page.

Thirty-five thousand kids
appeared for this exam.

Only 700 of them passed.

And Mallika

has come 28th.

Forgive me.

We've found a nice boy
for Mallika in Mumbai.

Will we ever meet again?

I bought this for your birthday.

How will I tell you about my movie?

The usual way.

Give me a blank call.

You must make this movie, okay?

Don't give up.

NOOR GLASS & ALUMINIUM

Where are my newspapers?

I sold them as scrap.

What? Are you crazy?

Hey! Mind your language.

-She's your mother.
-My mother is no more.

They weren't scraps. They were
the columns I'd written over the years.

Be grateful that your columns
earned us at least 38 rupees.

Respect matters more than money
in this world. I'm a writer.

You're not a writer.
You're a weirdo. A weirdo.

He's so full of himself.

There's no cure for delusion.

He was a great man.

The movies he made 70 years ago
are still impressive.

That's no small feat.

You know,

when the talkies came,

people forgot about Buster Keaton.

He was adamant about making silent movies.

He was unique.

He drank so much
that he ended up in a mental asylum.

But the magic tricks he learned as a child

helped him escape from the mental asylum.

And then he made another movie

which is still considered a classic.

Are you drunk already?

What are you trying to say?

I'll write the script for you, bastard.
That's what I'm trying to say.

I'll persuade the others.
We'll make a movie.

How is it going?

Are all the busy bees here?

Look, I just want to tell you

that to make this movie,
it's all or nothing.

-Trying to juggle two things won't work.
-Correct.

We can make a classic, guys.

Something that's our own!

Fine, I'm in.

I'm glad to hear that.

-Bravo.
-God willing, everything will be fine.

-I'm with you.
-Perfect.

All we need now is a script.

Well, I already have a story.
Detective Malegaon.

It was serialized in the newspapers.

-Didn't you read it, Aleem?
-I did. It's a terrific story.

I want to make a comedy.

It has comedy, too.

Farogh, only educated folks
will be able to relate to your story.

If this one succeeds,
the next one is all yours.

Look,

the people of Malegaon

already have enough worries
in their lives.

They need some comedy,
some laughter in life.

-He's right.
-You're right, bro.

That's true, but do you have a story?

Hold your horses, man.

I'm thinking of making Sholay.

But it's been already made.

This movie will be made for the people
and by the people.

Malegaon's Sholay.

-It's a good idea.
-Hit, super hit idea!

Hey, Raju.

And now I'll spin it.

Scrap dealer!

Scrap dealer!

-Two hundred rupees.
-Two-fifty, please.

We're making a movie. Come on, bro.

-In Malegaon?
-Of course!

Fine. Done.

Rubber Singh laughs and says,

"What's your future gonna be, Kalute?"

Kalute replies, "Chief, we used to
eat together at the Kerala Hotel."

"Now eat shit."

-Is that good?
-It is!

Jai says, "Your aim is perfect."

Basmati finds it odd.

And now, the climax.

Veeru moves out of their way.

Thakur drops his shawl

and dances like this!

Without his arms.

And all of a sudden,
Thakur knocks Rubber Singh to the ground!

As Rubber Singh falls to the ground,
there's a blast of surprise.

Thakur's shoes have got blades.

With his killer shoes,

Thakur stomps on Rubber Singh!

Awesome, bro!

-Hats off, bro.
-Fantastic.

You killed it!

CASTING CALL - IF YOU LOVE ACTING,
THEN DON'T MISS A CHANCE TO BE A PART

Well, Aunty, trust me.
Veeru is a simple guy.

Make sure it's straight.

Well, Aunty, trust me.
Veeru is a simple guy.

Well, Aunty...

Well, Aunty, trust me.
Veeru is a simple guy.

Veeru is a simple guy.

What's your name?

Your name?

Trust me. Veeru is a simple guy.

Ready?

-Should I look at you or the camera?
-It's up to you.

Shame on you!

Only one man can save you
from Rubber's wrath! Only one man!

Rubber himself!

That's unbelievable, man!

Incredible! That was awesome!

-He's a natural.
-He killed it!

-Fix! It's fixed!
-Fix? Fix!

You nailed it, bro.

Bro, she's...

Well, she needs money,
so she's ready to do it.

But she won't show her face, bro.

-Okay, sit down.
-Okay.

Well, it is what it is, bro.

She can play Radha's role,
but veil won't work for Basmati.

I'm trying, but who will let
their daughter act in movies here?

Well, we'll have to find someone.

I'll try to find someone.

Shall we begin?

Come on.

Basmati!

What's your name?

-Next.
-Okay, that's enough.

-Very good. Come.
-Did I get the role?

You're done. Good job.

Hey, Basmati!

Why is your name "Basmati"?

Next.

Come on, you're done.

Farogh.

Farogh, show them how it's done.

Basmati...

Go for it.

Hey, Basmati.

Basmati!

Have some shame, Farogh.

You guys are laughing at me.

Shafique can do it better than you.

-Shall I try?
-Shut it!

Idiot, you want to play
both Veeru and Jai.

-Why not play Basmati, too?
-I'll do it, bro.

-Farogh.
-Sit down.

You shouldn't laugh. It's wrong.

If you act so stiff,
we're obviously going to laugh.

-Shall I try?
-You want to?

Okay, great.

Come on, Shafique! Kill it!

This skinny guy
will show his heavy acting skills now.

-Come on, skinny. You can do it.
-Don't tease him.

You were looking for me at the tea stall,

while I was here,

waiting for you at the photo studio!

Bravo! Fantastic!

It's the best!

Raju, you're a great actor!

We've found our Jai!

No one in Malegaon
can be a better Bachchan than him.

-We've found our Jai.
-That was amazing.

Now we just need to find Basmati.

"Spring is in the air
the moment I see you.

"Spring is in the air
the moment I see you.

"Not just flowers,
even thorns are fragrant, too."

With that, please welcome
our junior Madhuri Dixit, Trupti!

NIKHIL - DEEKSHA

Here comes our Madhuri Dixit!

What is it?

Can you say this line,
"Come on, Banno, turn around."

-Are you crazy?
-No. Actually, I'm making a movie. So...

So, you are indeed crazy.

"Come on, Banno, turn around.

"Well, I know the mare's name
is Dhanno, not Banno,

"but it slips my mind all the time."

Just once, please.

-Is this an audition?
-Yeah.

-Which movie are you making?
-Sholay.

-Sholay?
-Malegaon's Sholay.

Malegaon's Sholay.

How much will you pay?

I charge 2,000 a day.

Oh, my! If I had that kind of money,
I'd be making the movie in Mumbai.

Not less than a thousand.

Okay, I'll try.

And I want my own separate makeup room.

Orange juice every morning,

and I'll only have bottled water, okay?

Can you say the line once?

-What was it?
-"Come on, Banno, turn around.

"Well, I know the mare's name
is Dhanno, not Banno,

"but it slips my mind all the time."

Okay.

Come on, Banno, turn around!

Well, I know the mare's name
is Dhanno, not Banno,

but it slips my mind all the time.

Astonishing! You seem quite experienced.

Yeah. Well, I've been
dancing and acting for a while.

So, do we have a deal?

Not for less than a thousand.

-Okay.
-Okay.

-Shaikh Nasir.
-Okay.

It's great.

Come inside, please.

Come over here, ma'am.

Trupti will only come to the shoot.

Her fees is 1,000 a day, right?

-Hey, is she playing Radha?
-Yeah.

She's a little too tall.

I mean, if only she was a little shorter.

Don't be a smartass, Raju.

-Next, you'll want the real Jaya Bhaduri.
-Hey!

Don't laugh, your mustache will fall off.

Radha, act like you are holding a lamp.

-Yeah. Rubber Singh, take aim to kill Jai.
-Okay, next.

-Are we done?
-Yes.

-I can't close my shop every day.
-Fine.

Veeru, look up. Stand like a hero.

Go on, Jai.

Act like you're friends.
Why is your hand there?

Okay, next. Siraj bro.
Crush him with your shoes.

Act like you're chewing paan.

Kalute...

Now, with the baton. Okay, done.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Mukem! Take the painting.

-Congratulations.
-Keep rehearsing.

-Congrats on the first day.
-Get the rope and camera.

Fix your mustache.

-What's going on?
-Arms will stay hidden now.

Don't tie it too tight.
Your hair looks good.

Why is his wig fixed?

Why did you fix the wig?
He had to wear his shirt first.

Hey, bicycle. Get the bicycle.

Akram, tie the camera to this bicycle.

-I'll do it right away.
-Okay. Good job.

Why is the painting here?
Hang it on that wall.

And keep the safe here, in the corner.

Start acting when I say "start." Okay?

Number one.

Start!

Rubber Singh?

That bloody rascal?

I want you to bring that bastard here.

And that, too, all tied up in ropes.

Ramdev, give them the dough.

But why tie him up?

-Sorry.
-Stop, stop.

No worries. It's going well.

-Farogh...
-I just...

Because Thakur sahab
loves to see Rubber Singh in bondage.

Likes.

Loves to see him in bondage.

-Loves to see him in...
-Raju bro.

You look great.

Wow, awesome.

-Confidence.
-Loves to see him in...

-And me, Nasir?
-Of course. You are the best.

Let's go.

Start.

Rubber Singh? That bloody rascal?

Veeru,

I want you to bring that bastard here.

And that, too, tied with ropes.

Ramdev, give them the dough.

But why tie him up?

Because Thakur sahab
loves to see Rubber Singh in bondage.

-Oh, man!
-What's wrong?

It went well, Nasir.

-What's wrong?
-I forgot to hit the record button.

-He forgot to hit the button.
-I see. No worries.

-Come on.
-Nasir.

I've to go and open the shop.

Shafique can do it. Here.

-Come on, man. We just started.
-I know. Bye.

Start!

Rubber Singh? That bloody rascal?

Veeru,

I want you to bring that bastard here.

And that, too, tied with ropes.

Ramdev, give them the dough.

But why tie him up?

Because Thakur sahab loves Rubber Singh!

In bondage...

What the hell is he saying, man?

Take four.

Because Rubber Singh
likes Siraj... Thakur sahab...

Damn it!

What are you doing, man? Is this a joke?

What all do you add to a cup of tea?
Water, milk, tea leaves, sugar.

Three things to be memorized here.

Come on, we'll continue
till we get it right.

Start.

Rubber Singh? That bloody rascal?

Veeru, I want to bring
that bastard here for you...

I want you to get him for me...

Siraj bro, what are you...

One better than the other.

Start eating almonds, Siraj bro.

Don't you dare misbehave with me.

He messed up six times,
and you said nothing.

I make one mistake
and you start bossing me around?

You better behave.
I've worked in 50 movies in Mumbai.

-Just look at him.
-When did it go from five to 50?

I'm being polite.

Ramdev, give them the dough.

-This take is good. We'll keep it.
-Okay.

She's here.

You brought the baby along?

-Pay him.
-Okay.

Here.

-Bag.
-Bag.

-Where's my makeup room?
-Here it is. First class.

This? You call it a makeup room?

I want a makeup room, not a rickshaw.

I can get guavas for you in the jungle,

but how can I get a makeup room?

-Please manage with this for a few days.
-Disgusting.

-My juice?
-Sure. Farogh, get the juice.

-I want it right away. Yes.
-Right away.

Go on, hurry up.

We haven't had a cup of tea yet,

Raju's stove isn't even lit yet,
and you're ordering cold drinks for her?

Will you play Basmati's role?

Shut up and explain the scene.

And hurry, get the cold drink.

I'm a writer, man.

What's he doing?

He's sleeping.

Come here.

Hold this.

Yeah, that's it.

What's your name?

Shafique.

And yours?

For now, it's Trupti.

What do you mean?

I mean, when I become famous,
I'll change it. Like Sridevi did.

What? Did Sridevi really change her name?

You guys are making a movie,
and you don't even know this.

What, man?

But your name is good, right?

Trupti.

What's good about it?
It sounds like a snack bar.

Start!

Very good. You got it right. Akram.

Take one.

Start!

Shafique, calm the baby down.

-Oh, baby.
-Nasir, he has a name. Akshay.

-Don't cry, baby.
-That's why I asked for a makeup room.

The shoot is going on, let's watch it.

We're making a movie. Yes, my baby.

Look, that's a magical bird.

I'll fly in it one day.

I want to take a few shots of the sky.
It might come in handy.

I need the equipment.
I have a wedding shoot.

You'd said there's no booking today.

It's nothing, you focus on the shoot.

What's going on?

Nothing. It's a small job,
but I'll handle it.

Don't worry about it, bro.

I'm coming along.

Where are you going? Listen to me.

Ismail bro has arranged the meal today.

-And Brother Raju has arranged the tea.
-No way!

That's enough.

-Nasir, can I have a word?
-Right now?

-Here.
-Here.

What is it?

Tell me.

We shouldn't be advertising matches
in the movie.

Brother Ismail gave us 8,000 rupees
and sponsored the lunch today.

Are you making a movie
or cutting deals, Nasir?

If this is what you want to do,
why make me write the script?

You're getting upset over nothing, Farogh.

We need money to make the movie.

Then just say that you need the money.
I'll steal, but don't spoil the movie.

Look, if it's a problem for you,
don't bother coming here anymore.

We'll manage.

You're making a mountain
out of a molehill, Farogh.

People are gonna find it funny.
I guarantee it.

-Be quiet, guys. Shooting is going on.
-Shafique, get the clapper.

Take three.

Start.

Well said, mister.

This calls for a smoke,

lit by Malegaon's famous Ismail Matches.

Ismail Matches.
Not a spark, but an explosion!

-Where should I set it up?
-There, near the rocks.

Hey, it's falling.

Oh, no, not me!

Chief, we used to
eat together at the Kerala Hotel!

-What's your future gonna be, Kalute?
-Chief! We shared a meal...

Look at this, Nasir.

Start!

What's your future gonna be, Kalute?

Chief...

We both shared a meal...

We both shared a meal at the Kerala Hotel.

Now eat shit.

Stop.

Very good. Very natural.

You guys are doing a great job.

Rubber Singh!

Stop!

Pack up!

Shooting's over!

Hang it on the nail.

MALEGAON'S SHOLAY

Join them. Then pull it.

I got a job in Mumbai.
I'll teach Urdu at the university.

That's awesome, man!

-Congratulations.
-Thank you, brother.

-Don't forget us after going to Mumbai.
-What do you mean? Who are you?

-Congratulations.
-Congratulations, Irfan.

Thakur isn't on the poster.

Come on, Farogh.

Cheer up, man.
It's the premiere of your first movie.

Not mine, Nasir's.

Half my script was put to paper
with the rest in my heart.

It's okay. Don't be upset, man.

How is the poster?

No one's here yet.

The movie is about to start.

Why isn't your husband here?

If he knew I was here,
he would've definitely come

to drag me back home,
cursing me all the way.

Come on, Aslam.
I'll treat you to tea and snacks.

-Congratulations.
-Thank you. Please come in.

We've arranged cold drinks for you.
Please enjoy it.

Hey, Mangal bro. Good to see you.

Our stars are here!

I just want to say

that we've poured
our heart and soul into it.

Well, the rest is in God's hands.

Start the projector.

-Are you Thakur sahab's manager?
-Yes, come with me.

MALEGAON'S SHOLAY

That's amazing!

Hey, that's Akram!

Ramdev, give the photo.

These two are quite cunning.
They picked my pocket, too.

What will they do to you?

He can't even shoot an elephant
from a foot away.

What did he say?

Throw it.

What if they don't like it?

You should've thought of that
before selling your soul for the matches.

These arms belong to me, Thakur!

Rubber Singh...

The movie is over, guys.

What an awesome movie!

Nasir, congratulations!

Four shows! Four shows!

Malegaon's Sholay,
four shows a day. Four shows!

Stay in the line.

Come on, move. Keep moving.

NOW SHOWING - MALEGAON'S SHOLAY
6 SHOWS DAILY

This calls for a smoke,

lit by Malegaon's famous Ismail Matches.

Ismail Matches.
Not a spark, but an explosion!

MALEGAON'S SHOLAY

Now eat shit!

6 SHOWS DAILY

It's sold out, guys.

HOUSE FULL

House full, guys.

Fourteen stitches!

Nasir, get the bag!

Get in. The bus is leaving.

See you!

Raju, you cleared Nasir's dues.
Why not mine?

I had to clear his account.
He gave me a big role, after all.

Who created it? I did.

Wow! Nasir, new motorcycle.

-It's a 1957 model.
-Fantastic!

You can hear it from a kilometer away.

Can I ride it, bro?

-Of course. Take it whenever you want.
-I'll ride in back.

-Raju bro.
-Yes?

-Get us some mincemeat samosas.
-Yes. Hot and crispy.

How do you like it?

It's good.

-It's terrific.
-Isn't it?

-Here you go.
-Wonderful.

-Dive in.
-Let's start, guys.

Nasir, let's make Detective Malegaon next.

You said we'd make my story next.

-Didn't you?
-Yes, I did.

But Malegaon's Sholay is such a big hit.

Tickets are being sold in black.

-It's a big deal. Right?
-It is indeed.

People are hungry for more.
Let's make something like this again.

I knew he had taken a liking to comedy.

So, I have another idea.

Full comedy. Hear me out.

The owner of a tobacco company

wants to rule the world
by selling tobacco to innocent children.

And a poor power loom worker

stands up to him.

But we'll make something like
Chaplin movies, international.

How is it?

-It's good.
-It's good, bro.

It's okay.

The thing is,

I met Brother Ismail from Ismail Matches.

He's a smart man, you know?

He said, "Make another movie.
I'll fund it."

Well, I'm giving you a new idea.

He's a big fan of Shaan.

So I told him,
let's make Malegaon's Shaan next.

Ramesh Sippy also made Shaan after Sholay.

Shaan?

So, you want to make another parody?

He's ready to pay us the advance.

Why stress? Eat up.

I don't have time for these trashy films.

Did we make a trashy movie?

Farogh, don't say that.

What else should I say?

Do you know what an original is?

Do you think you're Yash Chopra?

That Bollywood will come looking for you?

Sit down, for your own good.

Really? For my own good?

What kind of friendship is this,
which turns friends into advisors?

Unbelievable.

Have you even heard of Mirza Ghalib?

Have you ever read a book?

You neither have manners
nor worldly wisdom.

All you know is to exploit people.

Hey, don't cross the line.

Nasir Shaikh!

The son of Malegaon's
gambling king, Abbaji,

video parlor funded by father,
movie funded by brother.

-Don't try to lecture me!
-Enough, Farogh. Sit down.

And with the hard-earned money
of the poor audience,

you bought this 1957 model motorcycle!

Nasir, what are you doing?

-Hey, Nasir!
-What are you doing?

-Farogh.
-What are you doing?

What are you doing, man?

-Farogh!
-Hey, what are you doing?

Hey, don't fight here.

-Stop it!
-You fucker!

Stop it, both of you!

-Come on! Come!
-Stop it!

I beg you, stop it!

You think
you're an original artist, right?

Yes, I am!

Then make your own movie!
Why are you here with losers like us?

Let go of me! I'm not doing anything.

He's making such tall claims.

If you have the balls, Farogh,
go to Mumbai.

No one would give you the time of day.

Hey! Farogh, where are you going?

Listen to me, man.

-Mumbai is calling me.
-Hear me out.

There's nothing left to say or listen to.

Tell my father, if he asks about me.

And, Raju!

I'll send you the money
as soon as I sign a movie!

I'll settle all your accounts!

I'm not running away with your money!

And keep in mind,

the writer is king! Only the writer!

Don't go, bro.

He hit me.

This can't go on, Nasir.

Only 30% tickets sold for this show.

But both the evening shows are sold out.

I'm thinking of making a new movie.

I'll make something original this time.

I've made enough parodies. I'm done.

I'm also thinking
of doing something original.

I've fixed your marriage. With Shabeena.

Brother...

I mean, how can that be?

I'm not asking, I'm telling you.

You're lost in your own world,
so someone had to make a decision.

I gave them my word.
Don't humiliate me again.

You're lucky.

Otherwise, who gets the chance
to marry the girl who loves you?

Mr. Nasir Shaikh,

do you accept Shabeena,
daughter of Abdul Razzaq,

as your lawfully wedded wife

in the presence of two witnesses?

I do.

-Do you accept her?
-I do.

-Do you accept her?
-I do.

-Congratulations!
-Congratulations!

-Please.
-Uncle, I don't want to.

This is my niece, Neha.

She's been insisting
on sleeping next to you.

No, I want to sleep with Mom.

Hey... Neha, wait!

I don't know what's going on.
First, she wanted you, now Mom.

Sit down, Nasir.

I know all this happened so fast.

No, it's nothing like that.

I'm a bit uneasy today.

You won't understand.

I understand it pretty well, Nasir.

I've been living with it for eight years.

I need some time.

Can we be friends first?

All right.

-Do you really want to be friends?
-Yeah, of course.

Do you know how to make friends?

Shall I tell you how?

Let me finish my studies.

Tell Brother Nihal
that I want to complete my law degree.

You really should become a lawyer.

Fine, I'll talk to Brother Nihal.

You said it would take half an hour.

Yeah, but the meeting is not over yet.

It's been two hours, ma'am.

Okay, let me check.

Mr. Tarun, this writer has been
waiting to meet Mr. Sunny.

Okay.

Mr. Sunny is still in the meeting.

And then he has to go
for an outdoor shoot.

He's asking if you can meet
in two and a half months?

Is that fine?

Yes.

Should I call you after two months?

-Yeah, that should be good.
-Thank you.

Okay. Yeah.

So with a big round of applause,
please welcome

the director of Malegaon's Sholay,
Malegaon's Shaan,

and Today's Mughal-e-Azam, Nasir Shaikh.

Or as they call him,
Malegaon's Yash Chopra.

He made his first movie
Malegaon's Sholay with just 30,000 rupees.

And it earned at least 300,000.

Did Sholay earn as much?

-Thank you.
-Thank you. Sure.

Asif bro, one photo, please.

Hey, Nasir! I want to
take a photo with you. Come on.

Come on.

Take a good one.

-He's...
-He's with me.

Akram, step aside for a bit.

-Okay.
-Come on.

Well, what happened
to your original script?

It's still in progress.

Why don't you adapt
one of my plays into a movie?

Let's make a killing together.
What do you say?

Asif, I would love to.

Keep up the good work.

Hey!

Do you know, according to Indian law,

women cannot be arrested
between 6:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m.?

No.

Do you know what that means?

No.

It means I can commit
any crime during this time

and get away with it.

Who is going to study for the exam?

I can't study
if you keep playing these movies.

You'll be head of the class this time.

You don't want to forget Mallika,
or you can't?

Every Friday, you play
these bloody Bruce Lee movies.

Because you miss her, right?

I want to forget her,

but I'm scared of forgetting her forever.

Even I don't want you
to forget your first love.

Not everyone gets their love,

like me.

-Thank you.
-Okay, sir.

Look at this, Siraj bro.

I met Javed sahab.

I told him we made a parody of Sholay.

What did he say?

He said, by making a parody of Sholay,
you gave respect to this movie.

If you go back and show this photo,
everyone will be impressed.

I won't go back empty-handed, Siraj bro.

Farogh, people at home

love you for who you are,
not what you've achieved.

Father, Nasir,
they will all make fun of me.

I won't go back.

What's going on, Nasir?

I have a crazy thought.

Let's adapt Asif Albela's play
into our next movie.

It's original, and working with Asif
will earn us more respect.

Right?

Well, you're right.

But only you will gain respect, Nasir.

How much will we earn?

Well, not much.

But, Akram, we used to
dream of working with Asif.

You're fulfilling your dreams, Nasir,
but what about us?

We're also fulfilling your dreams.
And that, too, for free.

-What happened to you guys?
-I don't know.

Tell him, Akram.

We're just trying to say

that all of us make the movie,
but only you make the money.

Only you get to go on the stage.
Only you get the respect.

What are you guys saying?

Nasir shot it, he directed it.
It was his idea to make a movie...

Yes, he did everything.

We were just chasing chickens
at the shoot, right?

Why are you acting like stars
for delivering two lines?

Hey, he already kicked Farogh out.

But tell me something.
Did you make the movie by yourself?

No. Did I ever say that?

Bro, whatever I did,
I did it with your support.

But I've never forced anyone. Did I?

-Right.
-You chose to do it, guys.

-Yes.
-Then what's is it?

We did choose to do it. But listen now.

Now, I'm choosing Salim Jackie's movie.

He called me.

He asked me to handle
both camera and editing.

You know, he's giving me
money and respect.

You see, Nasir,

you care only about yourself.
You don't give a damn about us.

And you, you stay with him like a slave.

I have bad news, bro.

Your father suffered a heart attack.

He's passed on.

Why are you drinking that hooch?

I've just lost my father.
I don't need a new one.

If you want to ruin your life, do it.

You're one to talk.

-It's better than yours, at least.
-Why are you both at it again?

It's hot news that nobody's
watching your parody anymore.

So you're adapting Asif Albela's play

and calling it an original.

He still doesn't know what an original is.

What did you achieve in Mumbai?

It's the month of mourning...

What did he achieve? Tell me!

I made two monster hit films in Malegaon.

What did you do?

-I took a photo with Javed Akhtar!
-Shut it.

You're the most pathetic
and despicable man in Malegaon!

-Where is Akshay?
-His dad didn't let him come.

-What happened?
-Nothing.

Let's go.

That idiot Zulfi isn't here yet!

-Why?
-Really.

Will you do it?

-Acting?
-Yeah.

Say yes!

I'll do it, bro.

Then put on the groom's gear
and get ready.

-And learn the lines.
-Sure.

Will someone get me some breakfast?

Go!

Clap!

Start!

Show us the groom's face, at least.

I'm not ready for this marriage.

I am his father.

Better make it known.

And say what you like, son.
You still have to marry her.

Father, holes may appear in the sky,

an innocent-looking child may be sly,

and me being ready for this marriage,
that could only be a joke.

Fine, I'm convinced. I am.

Stop!

Well done, Shafique! You stole my heart.

Awesome. Very well done.

MALEGAON BUS STOP

I really want to be an actor.

How does it feel
to see yourself on the big screen?

That's not me.

I'm here at the Malegaon bus stop,
waiting for a bus to Nashik.

And on the way, I'll be planning
my escape from home.

Have you finally decided?

I can't bear it anymore.

I'm here if you need anything.

And in the end, Kundan,
along with his fellow mill workers,

throw the boss
into the same dyeing machine

that cost 500 workers their jobs.

The end!

-May I be frank?
-Of course.

The premise is good.

But your characters and locations,

they seem weak.

These are real people, sir.

And each character in this story
is from my hometown, Malegaon.

Who's heard of Malegaon, man?

And who gives a damn?

Look, people go to a cinema
to escape from their miserable lives.

Why show them
the same shit in the theater?

Sir, Deewaar was
also a mill worker's story.

People will watch it if it's made well.

People want to see themselves
on the big screen.

No one wants to.

Write something commercial.

Listen to me.

Set the story in Mumbai.

It'll come alive.

Like your last two crappy movies?

Don't let him in again!

Are you Trupti? I'm Shabeena.

I'd like to talk to my client alone.

-Can you both give us a moment?
-Yes, of course.

MALEGAON'S WEDDING

Those who are here for food
may go over there,

and those who are here to dance
may go over there.

And the rest, follow me.

Well, cheapskates? Will the groom
walk down the aisle by himself?

Good grief! Let's go.

Show us the groom's face, at least.

I am not ready for this marriage!

I am his father.

Better make it known.

And say what you like, son,
you will have to marry her.

All right, Father. All right.

I've convinced him. I have.

Asif bhai made me change the scene, bro.

Nasir shouldn't have done that.

Asif bhai asked him to change it.

So? Is your friend a baby?
Isn't he the director?

You stood by him all these years.

He should have done
at least this for you. Right?

He's done a lot for me. For all of us.

When we were shooting Sholay,
for the first time, I enjoyed waking up.

How many people
are making movies in Malegaon?

Do you know how it used to be?

Nasir bhai did a lot,
but not everyone can see that. Okay?

We're ruined.

I told you not to invest
everything in this movie.

Ticket sales won't even
cover the electricity bill.

We'll have to close the video parlor,
thanks to your hobby.

Two chicken biryanis, one bheja fry,
three butter rotis. Quick.

Vivek!

-Sir, how long will it take?
-We'll call you.

Small cell carcinoma.

Have you watched Anand?

The disease Rajesh Khanna had.
It's something like that.

Cancer.

Treatment must start immediately.

They've called us next week
to start the treatment.

It's called chemotherapy or something.
What was it?

Who knows what he said.
He said it's expensive.

Hey! Why do you worry about money?

-We'll take care of it.
-Yes.

Congrats. You got a rich man's disease.

Nasir, let me know
if there's anything I can do. I'll come.

He was really quiet all morning.

I'm glad you came.
It cheered him up a bit.

I closed the shop to come here
the minute I heard about it.

We're here for Shafique, not for you.

I'll get going.

Don't mind him.

Take care, and keep me informed.
See you later.

Goodbye.

Hey, bro.

-How are you?
-Getting by.

He narrated Detective Malegaon
to a producer,

but the producer dozed off.

So Farogh being Farogh,
threw water on his face.

The producer woke up with a start
and yelled, "Who threw water?"

Farogh was like,
"That's the suspense, sir."

Farogh bhaijaan, there's a call for you.

Hello?

Farogh, I'm here with Shafique.

Here.

Farogh.

Shafique! How are you, buddy?

I'm fine. I'm enjoying it here.

They're feeding me nonstop,
fattening me up.

You look better slim.

And how's the director?

He's right here. Talk to him.

How's everything going?

Yeah, everything is fine.

When are you coming?

I visit Malegaon often in my dreams,

but now I'll come for real.

I called him.

Happy birthday, buddy.

Farogh.

Farogh.

How are you, bro?

-See you in the evening.
-See you.

-Bye!
-Drive safe!

Nasir.

Do me a favor.

Seventy rupees will
get me through the night.

Don't ask me for booze money, Farogh.

-Pray a little longer next time.
-I don't make deals with Allah.

You throw it down, I'll pick it up.

Give it to me with your left hand.

Thank you.

Why did you stop making movies?

You know the reason.

That Asif Albela movie ruined me, man.

You were right.

I didn't know much.

And I thought I was an amazing filmmaker.

You are amazing, Nasir.

No.

You are.

I toiled away in Mumbai.

None of those big filmmakers

could understand my story.
Do you know why?

Because we're just nobodies to them.

We're outsiders.

But to you, we're kings.

You told our story in our way.

You did what no one else
in the world does.

You gave us a place in history.

In the history of Indian cinema,
you added a page for Malegaon, Nasir.

It will never fade away, buddy.

You're amazing.

Chemo couldn't get rid of the cancer.
The tumor is back.

So, does he need chemo again?

Take him home.

Make him as comfortable as you can.

I already knew.

If it was good news, he wouldn't have
asked for the two of you alone.

Hey, pull over, bro.

Shall we go to see the waterfall?

It's close by.

Everyone has to die someday.
What's there to be scared of?

It's just that I'll die
without achieving anything.

I could've been someone,
had I gotten the chance.

What are you doing, Nasir?

Buster Keaton wasn't crazy, Shabeena.
The world was.

What is it?

Remember the story you wrote

about a poor loom boy
who challenges the tobacco baron?

The one you promised to make?

-I'm here to fulfill that promise.
-What do you mean?

I mean, imagine,
what if that poor boy is Superman,

and Superman is our Shafique.

Here's 5,000 rupees. Get started.
I need it within a week.

I know you will write something awesome.

You're an awesome writer.

And the writer is king. King!

He can do it if he has the strength.

But don't tire him out.

Can you come to Malegaon every week
for his checkup?

That'll be tough.

I'll give you a brilliant role
in the movie, sir!

You'll play Superman's father.

When I was in school,
I wanted to be an actor.

But Dad didn't agree. I'll be there.

Thank you, sir.

What's going on?

We're making a movie.

You'll be the hero.

-Me?
-Yeah, you.

I'm writing the script.

Why me?

Because only you can do this.

Superman!

What do you mean, "Superman"?

Don't you know Superman?

Someone who flies around
wearing a red scarf and bright underwear.

Are you writing a script
or pulling my leg?

Listen to the story.
Our Superman is from Mars.

When his planet is destroyed,

his father sends him to our planet.

He grows up in a poor family here.

But he's troubled
by the idea of being an orphan.

So he gets addicted to smoking
and chewing tobacco as a kid.

This is our Superman.

-And who's his opponent?
-Who?

The world's biggest villain, Tobacco King.

He wants to rule the world
by selling cigarettes and tobacco

and keeping everyone addicted.

Start!

-Hey!
-Here comes our second producer.

Here are the crazies of Malegaon!

-Aleem!
-Buddy!

Irfan, I need Akram.

Only he can play the villain.

Look, I told him.
But he started yelling at me.

He won't come, man.

Make it exactly like this.

-Got it?
-No.

Never mind. Take his measurements first.

Lift your arms.

-Shafique, do me a favor.
-Sure.

Lower them.

I want to cast Akram as the villain.

He might agree if you ask him.

He's still upset with me.

Will he listen to me?

I'll ask Farogh to go with you. Okay?

Okay.

I love trash.

I love trash!

I wrote a few such lines for the villain.

Is it good?

Love it. They're superb.

Come here. Sit down.

-Sohail.
-Yes?

"I love trash!"

-Style it like this.
-All right.

Show me.

You want me to go bald?

You're the villain.
The bald look is terrifying.

Not for me, buddy. It's for Shafique.

-You're such an asshole.
-Please.

You guys are laughing?

Ask the scrap dealer
what he'll pay for this.

-Okay.
-Call me before you finalize it.

Okay.

Selling that won't be enough
to make a movie.

I have some in my savings as well.

Here's 30,000 rupees. My earnings.

I'll give it back to you.

I don't want money.

I just want a producer credit.

Of course.

And I will attend the premiere,
with sister Nilofar.

That goes without saying.

I've never been so scared
of making a movie before.

Don't worry.

It will be good.

Not just good.

It has to be a classic.

One that will last forever.

Fix it quickly.

What is this? It looks like a shrine.

What are we doing?

Our movie has magic, Shafique.

Come on, I'll explain the scene to you.

-Number one.
-Start!

Smile, come on.

Move the cape.

Don't worry, Shafique. Look straight.

Aleem, hold him. Cover yourself.

Straighten your arms. Well done. Good job.

Point the fan at him.

-What's going on? Has Nasir lost it?
-Have some water.

Akram, swim to me as soon as he says stop.

I can't swim.

I'm right here.
Don't worry at all. Go ahead.

-Aleem, mark it!
-Scene two, take four.

Start!

Go, my dear. Make a home in the new world.

Farewell.

Goodbye. Farewell.

I'll be back.

Hey, camera!

-Did the camera get wet?
-Where is it?

Oh, man!

-Come on, man.
-Here, wipe it dry.

-Akram, I can't swim!
-It fell by mistake.

It must be soaking wet.

-Can't we take out the tape?
-Akram!

-Take out the tape.
-It didn't fall, then.

-Get the tape out.
-It slipped.

-It got wet.
-Take it out.

-It won't come out.
-Wipe it dry.

-It's battery...
-It must be ruined.

The tape got wet, man.

-What do we do now?
-That wide shot is ruined.

Akram, I asked you to save me.
I could've drowned!

Did you fall in?

I was focused
on the camera, bro. I'm sorry.

Help him sit down.

-Dry his hair.
-Sit down.
