Original subtitles

What life is this?

Good morning, madam. - Like idiots"

we've been waiting here for you. You think we're fools?

I have to make a complaint to the authority

Madam, what good is lodging a complaint with the authority?

Complain to the government instead"

So many cars and so little parking space

Get in, will you?

Companies ought to manufacture automobiles"

that can become big or small according to the parking space.

Right?

You know what? He's talking too much! He thinks we are fools!

These drivers keep our cars to the right"

and make excuses of not finding parking space

Just check if everything is all right. - Hello! You exhibitionist!

You think I'm a thief?

I knowjust how devoted you are to your husband! I know you too well

Must I tell your husband who you arrived with last time"

and why your car kept rocking in the basement for over half hour?

Just shut up, okay? - Darling, what's he saying?

Don't pay attention to him. Let's just go from here

Yeah, get going! Stay here for a while more..

And I'll give a running commentary of what happened inside the car!

With the correct timing! - Nikhil..

You've got into a fight with a customer again?

No fight, I just gave her some answers

Nikhil, you can't behave like this with our customers

And the customer can call me anything? Even call me a thief?

A customer can say anything to you! - Know what? She can, to you. Not me

I'm not a slave to take abuses. - So quit the job

I kick your job.. to hell with it! Here's your jacket

I'll return the shirt and trousers tomorrow. Okay?

Know what? I'll visit you as a customer some day..

And pick on you to heap abuses on you guys. Get that?

Yes, bro? - Forget bro

First tell me what you thought of Sharma-ji's daughter?

Sharma-ji's daughter? - Yes

Oh yes" she's nice. But know what?

Despite being Sharma-ji's daughter, she hasn't a hint of modesty

Get serious, will you? I got her to agree to see you..

At your mother's insistence. - Why not do something at my insistence?

Really? Do what"? Tell me.. what am I to do?

I've always been willing, but you are the one..

Who cannot decide what to do with your life

It's 5 years since I called you over from Punjab

And what have you done? Nothing!

You're always lost in a world of your dreams!

Brother, it's necessary to dream in order to achieve something

Dreaming the way you do is called pipe-dreaming

Pipe-dreaming? Who else dreamt like this? Someone in Dubai?

Don't you change the topic!

How long will you wish away your responsibilities with glib-talk?

Your mother has recently undergone an operation.

She's still in hospital

God forbid, if the need arises"

won't you have to decide what to do with your life..

Or what you aim at becoming?

Want me to say the correct thing? - Correct thing...?

Not once have you ever been correct! Anyway.. go on

I want to become Big Brother

To whom? - To the world

An underworld don

Jabbar. Have you heard his name?

What a guy! What style! He hasn't a worry in the world

Anyway, I want to become like Big Brothen. not Big Brother myself

It's useless trying to reason with you. You idiot"

you ought to say good things. Only good things

Man ought to think good things, say good things

You know, there's a point of time every single day..

When God listens to everybody

It's when something you have on your mind comes true

Now go and take the taxi out and get to work. Go on

Big Brother! This chap's gone crazy!

If there is indeed a moment every..

Single day when God listens to everyone..

And what one has on mind comes true, why hasn't what I think come true?

Every moment, every instant" you are the one I seek

Looks like my prayer isn't even reaching God

"My beauty is beyond compare"

"l'm spellbinding all the way"

"Am I the pride of passions...? Or am I the life of my lovers?"

"l'm still..."

"l'm still young and tender.."

"l'm young and tender"

"My beauty, dazzling.."

"my charms, bewitching like Shirin's"

"l'm like the flowing river.."

"when my passions are stirred"

"l'm Laila's closely kept secret, I'm the love Heer expressed"

"l'm still the young temptress"

"l'm like a goblet full of wine"

"l'm the thirst on everybody's lips"

"Cast a look around.. I'm the one close to your heart"

"l'm the one every lover desires, I'm an expression of love"

"For.."

"for now I'm young"

"For now I'm young"

Business? Or pleasure?

Business

Pleasure

I mean.. let's say both

Thank you. - Excuse me, sir

Maybe you're forgetting something

Sorry, I'm late again. I'm sorry

Hello...? Sorry I'm late again

No, sorry" I'm early again

Why?

I like waiting for you, madam

Sorry, Rhea

Shall we? - Sure

You look very happy today. What's up?

Yes" looks like a long-cherished"

dream of mine will be fulfilled tonight

Why? What great thing is happening tonight?

Anything could happen, you know

Right.. and when that "anything" might happen.. nobody ever knows

You say interesting things

No wonder, of all the taxis in Dubai..

You've asked your manager to arrange for mine

Not true. That's because you're good at heart

And also since you're from India, I feel a sense of belonging with you

"Belonging".. sounds so nice when it comes from someone special

The colour of that lipstick looks nice on you

Flirting with me?

Flirting"? Not at all. I'm only kidding

Kidding? - Yes.. no, serious. I'm serious

Which means you take a very close look at me

Yes. I do take a close look..

With you in front of me.. or even when you're not

Every moment. - Nikhil, I know what's on your mind

Your eyes gave you away the very first time we met

But you come from a respectable family, Nikhil..

And I'm just a dancer at a nightclub

Don't you know what people have to say about dancers?

I don't care for people. I only do my heart's bidding

Rhea, I feel a strange kind of joy whenever I meet you..

It gives me so much of peace. I could do anything for you

It's like even laying down your life for that someone special

You are "Speciar.

Now will you keep getting worked up or even buy me some coffee?

Do you like driving the cab all night?

I prefer the nights. There's less traffic, less noise..

And less chances of an accident

And the international flights arrive only during the nights

Alleged gangster Jabbar's extradition case up for hearing

What a guy this Jabbar is! He's a great man!

He's made it to the skies! Great

Have you heard of Jabbar?

I don't want to! - Why not?

Nikhil, must I answer every question of yours?

Hey.. you're getting offended. - What else?

Should I be pleased to hear you lavishing praise on a criminal?

There's a difference between being a criminal and a don

I strongly believe that rather than lead the life of a beggar..

One must live a few days like a king

Even if you fall in your own esteem in the process. Right?

Looks like you haven't had to confront the truth, ever

No wonder you think like that

But the sooner you change"

your way of thinking, the better it'll be for you

Someone has aptly said"

"When someone turns a deaf ear, the matter becomes really serious"

Let me present you a song that'll mend broken hearts

Let it play. Silence stings

"You stole my heart away, my love"

"You drove me crazy, my love"

"l had lost my way, my friend"

"You taught me how to live, my love"

"My love"

"Life is nothing if living is without you, my love"

"You stole my heart away, my love"

"You drove me crazy, my love"

"l had lost my way, my friend"

"You taught me how to live, my love"

"My love"

"Life is nothing if living is without you, my love"

"My lips trembled, yet remained silent"

"Silence mocked"

"My heartstrings strummed, yet remained silent"

"Restlessness staggered within"

"l've gone crazy for you"

"Don't leave me in a state of madness, don't go"

"My love"

"Life is nothing if living is without you, my love"

"l look for signs in your eyes"

"Give me hope to survive"

"My heart is restless, so are my heartbeats.."

"ln love, I desire to sail across"

"Listen to what I have to say"

"Don't play with words, don't leave me high and dry, my love"

"My love"

"Life is nothing if living is without you, my love"

"You stole my heart, my love"

"You drove me crazy, my love"

You've reached your destination

Not yet

May I say something?

Even I expect you every evening. Bye

And she walks away, diffident and coy

O Love, at least she was here

Well pal, this time you are right

Yes!

Taxi

Sorry, sir. I didn't hear you since"

the glasses were raised. Please get in

Do you always drive ahead and then reverse?

To be frank, I want to surge ahead..

. But sometimes I have to look behind..

To see if I haven't missed anything

What'd you prefer? Air-condition? Or fresh air?

The air in big cities and the water in small towns is very dangerous

Air-condition, full blast. - When it comes to pollution"

no city is safe

Where to, sir?

Pyramid Complex, Jumera Road. Know where it is?

I know Dubai more than she knows herself, sir

How long will it take? - To be correct"

19.30 minutes. -19.30 ? Not 18 or 20 ?

Sir, time is money, money is everything. Every second counts

Gold Market is 5 minutes away, lrani Hospital is another 5.30 minutes

Then we travel another 8 minutes to Pyramid Complex

That makes it 18.30 minutes. You said 19.30

Sir, I keep a minute as standby

Life and a taxi on the road are unpredictable

Besides, I always try to extract a thank-you from my passengers

I don't want anyone to be sorry. - Are you scared to hear a sorry?

I haven't learnt to be scared, sir

ls this your first time in Dubai? - Do I look like that?

To be correct, you appear to be a born passenger, sir

You got it right, bro

My fleeting legs can't stay put

When I'm tired of the nights in Delhi, I come here..

To these dazzling nights. - You live in Delhi, sir?

They live in one place, who are burdened with responsibilities

I'm a wanderer

I love to wander, I like the nights

Less noise, and work is carried out smoothly

Sir, we think alike

I too like the nights. But what work do you do...?

Sorry

Here comes your Pyramid Complex, sir

Check the time, thank-you is due. - 18 minutes 50 seconds

Excellent. Very good. Thank you

You drive well. How much do you earn in a night?

Want to employ me? - Can't you reply without questioning?

I can. About 500 dirhams, to be correct

About 500 dirhams?

Tonight I have some meetings"

, I have to go to places and meet a few people

I also have to reach the airport at six in the morning. Give me company

Sir, only a call-girl gives you company all night, I'm just a cabby

I'm not asking you to sleep with me

I'll give you 2000 dirhams. - Four times what I make?

You said, time is money, money is everything

I'm paying you for the time I'll lose looking for taxis

Sir, you are correct, but let me tell you something

I get bored spending the entire night with one person

1000 advance. The rest after reaching the airport

I haven't agreed yet, sir. - I don't ever give a chance to refuse

I won't let you get bored, I promise

Crime Branch officer Oberoi

Ranbir Oberoi

Right? - Ranbir Oberoi

Please come in

Afsana, Dubai police officer, told me about you

Said what?

That you are coming

Going by your appearances, I don't think you were waiting for me

I was waiting only for you

Anyway, please be seated, be comfortable

Meanwhile, I'll freshen up. Okay?

To your right is the bar. Please help yourself

Right? You are that type

You are a police officer, that's why these pictures appear nude to you

An artist would see the art in them

Anyway, let's get down to business. I got to go somewhere

So tell me, what information do you have?

All the information that is necessary to extradite"

...and convict Jabbar

I'll teach that selfish man a lesson he'll remember forever

There was a time when he'd only speak about me

After Ruksana dropped in, he completely forgot me

What haven't I done for him? I smuggled cocaine"

I did every evil thing for him. I even ruined my own acting career

Now I'm going to destroy him. I'll produce evidence"

that's vital to convict him

No one can save him from the noose now

I will save him

You? Crime Branch officer Ranbir Oberoi?

I'm not

You didn't ask my name, I didn't tell you either

Then who are you?

To be correct"

the killer

Sorry

Sir, you are really fast. That was a quick job done, eh?

Well? Yes

Yes, had to hurry

Where to? - Where everyone has to go

Let's go. Next

Where to next?

Whose picture is this?

To be correct, if God wills.. my future wife's

Have you professed your love? - To be correct"

I tried hard, but I couldn't do it

To be correct, if you try, you can't

Let's go

Mr Ranbir, here's where your first witness stays

Mallika is an important witness because she used to work for Jabbar

She might need police protection

And don't worry, Dubai police will cooperate with you..

Dammit!

Been a cabby for how long?

About five years, sir

But to be correct"

I have other ideas. I want to set up my own travel agency

If I don't succeed at that, I'll become a gangster

Gangster?

I see. Like to bet?

On what? Travel agency? Or gangster?

Both. - But I got nothing to lose

No house, no bank balance, I don't even own this taxi

You have something that I had before

What is it?

Happiness. - Sure

But I can't put my happiness at stake

You sure have another thing. Dinner. If we reach the place on time"

Are you dead confident that you will win the bet?

I won't lose, I'm sure

Vikram

I'm Nikhil Joshi, sir

Ranbir Oberoi. CBI officer from India

Ibrahim Hyder. Dubai police chief. - Pleased to meet you, sir

Sir, we found this over there

Cocaine. See

My hunch was bang on spot. I mean, it's right

Drug-smuggling led to this murder. - I'm afraid you are wrong, sir

Not a matter of drug-smuggling. It's simple

Mallika was a key witness in the Jabbar case. So he got her murdered

Look sir, Jabbar is not a dimwit

I mean, he's not an idiot

Perhaps you have no idea,..

Since the beginning of this case against him..

Dubai police has kept a close watch on all his movements, day and night

No sir, he can't commit such a folly

You are wasting time. - What do you mean?

Quit cabs, get into car races. You will win awards

That's what you call luck, destiny

Happy birthday, Mussa

Have a drink. - Sure

Mussa, you know that Jabbar is a beast

What if he finds out?

Don't screw up my mood. Has he found out yet?

You don't understand. Do you take me for an ass?

His illegal money transactions"

have been under my control for the last one year

I even fleeced him of 20 million. Did he get wind?

Did he?

If he does, you are a goner

You are so scared. You are with Mussa, then why?

He will look for me only if he survives

The day I testify against him in court, Jabbar's game will be over

The CBI will take him to India and hang him

Will his soul come to find me then?

What rubbish! - What about Yunus Pathan?

Look, Pathan and I use each other

To testify against Jabbar, he will pay me 40 million..

And organise my flight out of Dubai. Then..

In a new country, we'll sing together, "l love you"

Romance, eh?

Who are you?

Osama Bin Laden

Besides, Death can go anywhere. It doesn't come knocking

I hope you aren't hurt? Are you all right?

Sir!

He fell down the roof! Must take him to the hospital, please help me

ls there a hospital in Dubai that breathes life into the dead?

Is he dead? - Dead?

He got one in the head, two bullets in the chest"

can he survive that? He fell off the tenth floor. Get up

Who told you to fall on the car? Get up

Hang on. How do you know these details?

I only fired, he died from the fall

You.. you.. you...?

I'm a killer. You are a driver, I'm a killer

You drive, while I fire. Look

No disturbance during working hours. No talking

You'll get used to it, tonight itself"

. You're going to learn a lot tonight

What do you mean? - Tonight you'll get used to it

Come on, it's a long night. Come in

Come in

Nobody knows about the witnesses

Only the top police officers in Dubai know about the witnesses

You know him only as a businessman

And I know he is a dangerous criminal.

Believe me, he can do anything

And I don't want to lose, after all these years

Because if the CBI loses this time, it'll be India's loss

I hate two things. Summer, and sweat"

...when the air-conditioning is on

Even I hate two things. To be correct"

the corpse in the boot and your nonsense

Stop raving about the corpse. Just imagine that it's luggage

Great. There's no difference between luggage and a man, right?

A dead man. No difference, because a dead man and luggage do not breathe

But you must breathe. To control your mind, you need to breathe

Take deep breaths. Inhale well and then exhale

Inhale again..

And exhale slowly. Breathe in and breathe out..

To bring your mind under control. - Are you a yoga expert?

Why should I take yoga lessons from you?

You'll even have to dance

That's the last thing I'll do

Anger. lt is very important to gain control over anger, child

All right, uncle. You just killed a man a while ago

Don't you feel anything?

Feel what? And why?

Everyone has to die someday. Some die today, some tomorrow

His time was up, sol killed him. It's my job

Killing someone is a job for you?

Can't help it. Good or bad, a job is a job

Did you know him?

Must you know someone to kill him?

How'd I know? I haven't killed anyone

Then why ask silly questions?

Thousands die everyday. Do you question that?

The Tsunami killed millions. Did you question that?

Rains killed thousands in Mumbai. Did you question that?

The earthquake killed scores. Did you question that? No

No one questions Nature. - You mustn't question a killer either

To be correct, you are not human You wear a smile"

after committing a murder. - To be correct"

the place we went before this, I killed a girl. Did you get wind?

What"?

What the hell! - What the hell!

How boring

Your uncles

Handle them

You are dead now. - We are dead

Not we, you. You killed him. - The taxi belongs to you

You've been plying a cab for five years, you know how to tackle them

I haven't been plying corpses" - There's no corpse in the boot

Who moved the corpse? - Get the corpse out of your mind

Behave normally. Give him a smile. Else, all of you will die

Asalaam Aliekom. - Waliekom Salaam

License and registration. - Wipe your sweat

Step out please

What happened? - Are you Indian?

Do I look like a Japanese? - Are you kidding?

You got the gender wrong. Why did you stop him?

He was driving with a broken windshield

He's an Indian, he loves to drive battered vehicles. It's his habit

Actually, there was a fight going on near a food stall

Someone flung a bottle of sauce, another ducked,..

...and it broke my glass

Broke? - Yes, broke is right here

Sometime broke, sometime break? - Officer, I have an urgent meeting

I just have to go to the next stop. I'm in a hurry. May we? Let's go

Wait! Stop!

Blood! There's "bloody" on the glass

Not bloody, blood. But it's not blood

Sir, it's not blood, it's sauce. The bottle of sauce broke here

It's sauce. - Chutney. Lick it

Lick it. Don't screw my mind, lick it

What? - Chilly sauce

Chilly sauce? Too hot? - Open the boot

Open the boot

Where's the need to open...? - I say, open the boot

Please sir.. - No if and but. Open the boot for him

It's my taxi, it hardly matters to you

Open up, quick. - Open the boot

Patrol car 33, we need backup immediately

Robbery at Sheikh Zayed Road. - Hello? Coming

Let's go

To the garage! - Sure

How did the blood taste?

What did you say? I'm not human

What are you? You've tasted human blood. Vampire

Blood-hungry cabbie

Tyre marks

Blood

Water

Mussa Memon. Second important witness. He used to stay here

Yes, possible. Why not?

He killed the girl, and then instead of using the stairs or elevator"

he jumped off the tenth floor..

Pulled himself up, jerked his clothes,

washed away the blood and left

It's possible" - Excellent derivation, Ms Afsana

He must've done all this to mislead the police

Mussa is dead! Please try and understand

Someone is eliminating our witnesses

Five years! It took five years for the"

CBI to prepare witnesses against Jabbar

And he's killing all of them, one by one

Possibly he's headed to kill the next witness"

...even while we're talking

If you seal your lips, I'll be bored

Do you want me to dance? - Goodness

You've become quite dangerous.

Murder is getting on to you, gradually

Don't even talk about it. - Okay, I won't talk about murder

Okay, I won't

Play some music. Music reduces tension

Everytime I'm tense, I listen to music

I listen to classical stuff even remix"

Stop raving about murder and music! I hate it when it comes from you

"You are a stranger. How long will you be with me?"

Wonderful

"ln the morning, you will taken"

Amazing! - "the first train home"

Dammit. You got a bad taste for music

It's nice. I felt as if you were singing for me

However, I will give you company, friend

Must say that you cooked up a great story before the cops

But I can't do that again and again. - You will

Everytime your life is at stake, you will make up stories

When one is at a dead end, his mind races like a horse"

and he digs a way out. - Why don't you find your own way out?

Have mercy on me please! Please take another taxi

Mr Joshi, clear any confusions you..

Have right now. I won't discuss this again

Tonight, we are in each other's company until I finish my work

It's not my job to ply a killer

It is, tonight

Here's what we do. Let's change the ambience. It'll change the mood

Let's hear Kamaal sahib's music. They say, those who come to Dubai..

Don't return without hearing him. Do you booze?

No. - Then how do you live?

"l wander everywhere.."

...l Can-t find.."

"a trace of you"

"When have I stayed away from you?"

"Where are you?"

"Where am I ?"

"l'm lost in memories of you"

"Loneliness stings"

"Look what life.."

"has come to"

"Ever since we parted.."

"l tell God.."

"my world is so lonely"

"l wander everywhere.."

...l Can-t find.."

"a trace of you"

"How will I spend a lifetime?"

"Disheartened and helpless."

"l see no ray of hope"

"Show me the light"

"l live.."

"in your paths"

"O ignorant one, you are looking for me elsewhere"

"l wander everywhere.."

...l Can-t find.."

"a trace of you"

"When have I stayed away from you?"

"Where are you?"

"Where am I ?"

"l'm lost in memories of you"

"Loneliness stings"

What else is there to try? I have given my heart to you

Thank you. - Wonderful

Good night, sir. - Good night

My friend is quiet. Would you like to recite a couplet on him?

Sure

Hear this. - Please

With tears in his eyes, he sits quiet and withdrawn"

With tears in his eyes, he sits quiet and withdrawn"

his sensitive eyes betray a touching story

Wonderful. Sensitive eyes betray a touching story!

Thank you. - It has given birth to a couplet in me

It's not complete though" - Let's hear

The story is touching"

your relationship with Jabbar is older than mine

Jabbar?

You also have a son" - Had

When I set up this restaurant, Jabbar tried to extort money from me

Protection money

When I refused, he kidnapped my son"

and doubled the ransom

lt took some time to raise that amount..

So he killed my son

Ever since, a fire rages within me

It was unfair of Jabbar. But I will dojustice

What are you doing? - Hush

Mr. Kamaal, you are an artiste

I respect artistes. Answer my question

If you are right, you will live to receive all this adulation

If you are wrong, your picture on the wall will receive the adulation

What madness is this? - Don't disturb

"O ignorant heart of mine, what's come over you?"

"Oh! ls there a cure for this disease?"

Who wrote it? - It is Mirza..

Mirza Ghalib!

Correct! He's right. I've seen that movie

That wasn't my question. You didn't hear my question

My question is, who wrote it...?

And who sang it first?

It'll be difficult to guess who sang first"

because several artistes have sung it

Not the right answer, Mr. Kamaal

Sorry

You are insane!

Why did you kill him? He gave the right answer

Don't come near me

The night is short, and there's lots to do. Get up

There's blood on your face

We need gas

Why? - We have to travel far

If we run out of gas, we'll be in trouble

This gas station is the last one in the city

The next is hundred kilometers away

Farsightedness

I hope you aren't thinking?

Hey Nikhil, long time no see. How are you?

Fill the tank, I'm in a hurry. - Right away

You know each other?

After all these years of coming here, we sure get to know each other

Nikhil, you got petrol. You've used only ten liters

The tank gets clogged sometimes, so I have to keep it full

You look tense. What's up? - Nothing, I'm tired

"HELP"

I got it, Nikhil. You are tired, I got it

Pick it up! - Hello? Dubai Police

Police control room? I'm calling..

From Imam Petrol Pump. There's a taxi"

Hello?

You killed my friend

My friend! - Not I, you killed him

You used your friend to save your own life

You passed him a note, didn't you?

I'm not the killer, you are the killer

You are..

The killer

Well, let's concede..

I mean, let's say that Mussa has been murdered

How can we reach the conclusion.

That it was Jabbar who had Mussa assassinated?

Mister, you perhaps have no inkling..

That Mussa has also been double-crossing Yunus Pathan

Possibly then.. - As it happened in the earlier murder..

People saw a taxi waiting under Mussa's flat

We checked the tyre-marks of both places" they're of the same make

Wait" wait a minute

Taxi"? Murder? In a single night It means"

Means what?

A similar incident took place in Malaysia two years ago

A taxi-driver committed seven murders in a single night

And he was found dead in his taxi the next morning

But that case was solved

I think he was mentally insane

He killed innocents and subsequently shot himself. Right?

No, sir

An incident like this also took place in Hong Kong

Three murders in a single night"

and the cabbie was found dead in his taxi the next morning

And that taxi driver was neithen.

Insane nor did he have a criminal record

The CBI therefore believes that there is a killer who hires a taxi"

commits murders during the night and kills the taxi driver..

So that he does not reveal the killer's identity

I can't stay another second with you

Find another taxi, walk your way back..

Or go to hell

I'll put up with the body. But I can't tolerate you anymore

You either can't understand Hindi anymore..

...or your memory is failing you

I said you will have to stay with me for as long as I complete my work

But I will not stay with you! Kill me, if you want to

I'm not staying with you! And what can you do anyway?

You want to kill me ? Kill me. I'm leaving

"Kill me" is so easily said

When the cold nozzle of the gun is held to your temple..

You begin to realise the difference between life and death

Man then does not say "Kill me." He says, "Help me, help me"

Okay?

Until I've finished two meetings, you're going to stay with me

Where are you, you ass?

Have you set out with a taxi or a plane? Take the walkie-talkie!

Your mother's been repeatedly calling from the hospital

Your mobile is also switched off..

Go to her immediately, she's very worried

You didn't tell me your mother's in hospital?

As if you'd let me go, if I told you

When have I stopped you? You must meet your mother

Let's go. - Where to?

To meet your mother. Won't you introduce me to your mother?

No. Never

So how else will you meet her?

You got a message right now that your mother's worried about you

Soon people will come looking for you..

Maybe even the "future girl" will arrive

I don't want them to come looking for you and die without any reason

C'mon

Press the knob

I hope the doctor's there. - Yes

Excuse me

I'm not just a police officer! I'm also an lndian.. an Indian!

Bravo, son! Well said! You're the real hero.. the real lion!

Ma, how many times will you watch the same movie?

Now you come...? Where have you been? I was so worried!

It's almost midnight, didn't you think of your mother at all?

Why've you switched off your phone? - Have you taken your medicine, Ma?

I don't want the medicine. - Have your medicine. Go on

Pappu...? Why're you standing there? Come here

Ma, that's not Pappu. - So who's he?

Hey sonny" come here. C'mon!

Come here!

My obeisances

May you live long, son. A cultured boy, aren't you?

This is the first time I'm seeing you

What lifeless eyes you have!..

And why do you look as if you're in mourning?

You're not into the leather-business, are you?

Well, I am into the leather-trade, actually

That's all right" sit down

Sit down

Are you a new friend of his?

He doesn't like me. I'm forcibly keeping him company

He wasn't willing to bring me here. He said he was going to see Ma..

I asked if I could accompany him. He said, no

such big dreams" obviously, man will have to work hard

Hard work? No task is difficult enough for my son to accomplish

Once he makes up his mind, he goes ahead and does it

I've taught him that.. go ahead and do what you have decided to

Just one shortcoming. He gets upset very soon

I told him, rather than worry and grope in the dark..

Try to light a lamp in darkness"

even if it burns your fingers. It will give light to others

One man must always help another. Even if one has to lose his life

Am I right? - What a noble idea

Once a lamp is lit.. darkness is be done away with

Exactly. - Wonderful

Where are your parents? In India?

Are you married yet or aren't you? - Married...?

Or are you still a bachelor?

Marriage! Marriage..

What's up? Looking for something? - Your words seem to have made..

Quite an impact on your son

Give that bag to me

I'll shoot

No monkey tricks. Don't compel me to shoot

It had the name and whereabouts of my target" you've thrown it away!

I feel like pumping all the slugs into your skull

Make good the mistake you've made. Get up!

These are the four dead-bodies that have arrived for a post-mortem

You may identify them

Kamaal Khan was an artiste" why was he murdered?

He was also our witness. - What is very clear is that..

The assassin has killed them all in the same manner

He shot them all in the head

Whoever he is, the killer made sure that his victims could not escape

One thing is clear then; they have all been killed by the same man

And the killer is a professional. - Exactly

There's something I can't figure out

Of the four people who are dead, two were our witnesses

The girl was bumped off because she happened to be with Mussa

But why was this attendant of the petrol pump killed...?

How about going to the airport? It'll take 55 minutes

Sorry, 54 minutes

One bullet saved for self-safety, isn't it?

Right" take a right up ahead

No, this cab now moves at my will. Not yours

That's like a sensible boy

Go on. Get down

For all the time we've spent together,"

you haven't been able to understand me

Did you reckon my job would be left..

Unfinished if you wrecked the laptop?

I leave nothing unfinished

You're the one who'll get down. - What?

That bungalow over there.. that's Jabbar's bungalow

The underworld don Jabbar? - Yes. The one you call Big Brother

Go there and get names and photographs of the people there

All right. Okay

I'll go if you ask me, eh?

Get down.. c'mon!

Step out

You have 24 minutes

I'll go straight to your mother in the 25th minute"

Don't utter my mother's name. - I did not" when did I?

But I'm not you.. I mean, I'm Nikhil

Become me for a while. You become me.. what say?

Jabbar hasn't ever seen my face"

He's only heard my voice. Over the phone

Just tell them that you're Vikram. There'll be no problem

What if somebody recognises me?

We'll shoot him

What? - Don't waste time

You have only 22:23 minutes to go. If you're late even by a minute"

I wouldn't like it, but I'm going to really kill your mother

I'll kill her

Can't be helped. Good or bad, a job is a job

Wait there" where do you think you're going?

Is Jabbar there? - There's no Jabbar here..

Get lost. - Watch your manners

You think I've landed at the wrong place to deliver a pizza?

Go and tell Jabbar that Vikram is here

Go on

Are you Vikram?

If you're Jabbar, I'm Vikram

Not nice to see beads of perspiration.

...on a contract-killer's forehead

Correct. I don't like the heat here either

You said you don't meet anyone. And today"

at this hour, you come calling without being invited?

Despite knowing that the CBI and the Dubai police..

Are keeping an eye on us?

I had to come. There was no other way

What reason that you were compelled to see me?

Information

Meaning?

The laptop on which all the information"

...was stored has gone missing

What?

Gone missing?

Sorry

Sorry?

Sorry...?

Sorry!

You heard that"?

You guys heard that?

Sorry!

He thinks I got that information from a telephone directory!

The CBI and the Dubai police had kept..

"The identities of the witnesses"

under wraps! It was so tough"

spending money like water"

that I got information on witnesses who were testifying against me

And now..

You are all finished!

If Jabbar is finished, you guys are also finished

Go.. go and look for a cleric. Go on!

Find a cleric to perform our last rites! Go!

One moment

When I was a little boy..

My fathen.

Always gave me a piece of advise

He said"

in times of hardship, turn to Allah

Allah will send an angel

I faced hardship, I turned to Allah..

And He sent to me an angel. From India

From India, that angel told me over the phone..

"Relax and go to sleep. All your troubles will be over"

And now, that angel sits before me like a school-boy"

who has lost his notebook and is complaining to me about it

He says, "l'm sorry. The information has gone missing"

In my shoes, what would you have done?

I'd first admonish an errant child and tell him..

That when an elderly man is talking about his childhood"

he mustn't flaunt his toy and disturb him

Get out

Get out

Now for that information. That laptop didn't go missing"

I destroyed it. Because, had the police to get their hands on it..

They'd have been here right now and you'd have been thinking"

not of your father, but ruing your misfortune

I've killed three of them. The girl, Mussa and Kamaal-saheb

There are two more to go and we have very little time

I strongly believe that those who waste time..

Are wasted themselves. What do you think?

What an angel believes" how may a mere human being not ?

Sir, according to the doctor's report"

the petrol-pump attendant was killed between 12:30 and one

We have enquired about all the cars"

that were refueled at the petrol pump..

During that period. - Fantastic

I mean, very good

The first card-holder was Javed Shaikh, a shopkeepen.

Who has a shop at the Gold Market"

The second card-holder is Nikhil Joshi

A taxi-driver. He was the last one..

...to have his tank refilled at the pump

So Mr. Ranbir.. what are you going to say now?

We now have solid reason to believe that"

it was this taxi-driver who killed the attendant

I hope not to meet you in the future and only talk to you

Can't say what's going to happen. But it was nice meeting you

Good night

What? - Good bye, sir

This guy's the next target. How am I going to save him? How?

When I first met you I thought you were a useful man

And you're really useful. - But you're a cheapskate"

to make me do this by dragging my mother into it

Sorry.. for dragging your mother into it and also for punching you

Where do you want to go? - Huh...?

What did Jabbar feed you? You're volunteering to drive me around!

You won't let go of me anyway..

So what's the point in repeating the same thing?

You don't plan on saving their lives by staying with me, do you?

Huh? Don't ever make that mistake

I'll be happy if I can save my skin from a lunatic like you

Very good. Keep thinking like that and you might actually survive

Because when someone sees me at work, he goes to sleep eternally

Grand Casino. Let's go

My boy Nikhil...?

No, sir.. it's impossible

Sir.. you surely have some misgivings

Misgivings, I had

They're now over

Four live human-beings"

he has turned into corpses at different places

The petrol-pump attendant was the one he killed last

But like every killer.. his game is now up

There's a youngster at Jabbar's bungalow, sir

Wait" clear the image

It's the same taxi driver

But what's he doing outside Jabbar House?

Maybe he's there to collect money

Which means Jabbar definitely has a hand in these killings

I'm sorry" you're right

Alert all police stations and have photographs sent to them

Driver of taxi number B78595 is to be treated as dangerous

I soon discovered that he himself was terrified

Reafly? - A don, I thought"

would have everything at his disposal. Money, power..

But after meeting him, I realized he had nothing

No peace, no sleep, no happiness

We lead a better life than him. We. the common people

A new battle every day, a new problem..

A problem we face squarely

We don't wait for hired goons, you see?

Is that a dig at me?

You're not so dumb

Hey.. come here. - Yes, sir?

Seen this guy somewhere? - No sir.. I have no idea

Oh no!

Hello! Police Control Room!

Follow them!

Why are the cops always after you?..

Were you a thief in your earlier birth?

Can't say about my earlier birth, but if you stick to me like this..

I'll surely be Wanted in this carnation

Taxi on road number 53!

You are already a Wanted criminal. Don't slow down the cab

What do you mean? - The police has fitted secret cameras"

outside Jabbar's bungalow. The cameras have caught you..

And the cops are now looking for you

There's a corpse in this cab's boot. Whose name is the petrol-card in?

So who's the killer? - You mean..

The cops think I've committed the murders you have?

You are the one who committed the murders

I'm just a simple diamond-merchant

Roopchand Swaroopchand. Here's my passport

So you planned the whole thing? I thought you were only using my taxi!

But you've been using me! You bastard!

Swear-words"? So you're shit scared, eh?

But you just said you face your problems, fight your own battles"

and what was that about.. goons? Hired ones...?

So you've lost it all, eh?

Pull up the cab!

Step out

Stop it there"

Pursuit on Highway Number 9

Step on it! Faster!

Police Control Room...? - Hyder here

The taxi driver has given us the slip! - Where is he headed?

Bur Dubai. - Bur Dubai...?

Bur Dubai...?

Where the Grand Casino is, isn't it? - Right

My God!

It means our fourth witness Sheikh Mehmood Al Zubair is his next target!

Joshi, you do know how to wriggle out of tight spots

I asked you to race your cab and you're making it fly

I'm going to blow out your senses now

Enough of putting up with you and the scare"

you're going to die now. Because I've cast my fear aside

What?

Slow down the taxi" people will get killed

You're repeating my words to me! Slow down the cab"

people are going to get killed!

Not nice to see a killer sweating

But everybody's got to die some day. Isn't that what you said?

Well? Can't you think of a couplet for this occasion?

No, not right now.. stop this madness!

I ought to have gotten into this madness long ago!

Stop the taxi" stop it!

This taxi will stop when you've stopped breathing

Stop the taxi! - No.. shoot! Shoot!

I hold the steering-wheel of your life right now

Watch how I jam the brakes on your life!

Are you okay...?

I got to go, sir! The killer.. - Relax

Someone's life is in danger, sir! Please let me go!

Someone's life is in danger...! - Relax"

Hands up. - He's gone in that direction.

Shut up! - Hear me out, please, sir!

Bow down.. now, I say! - Listen to me, please"

Shut up

Don't shoot, I say! Put down that gun! - Unlock this.. unlock it!

What you're doing is wrong

Sorry, I got to go. Grand Casino. Inform the cops over wireless

Wait there"

Where d'you think you're going...? - Drop me at the casino, please

I said no.. - Watch out!

This moment" now!

Excuse me..

You.. hands up!

I haven't killed anyone.. it's him.. Vikram!

Move out.. move out! I say, move!

Move.. move.. move..

It's that guy who killed the Sheikh!

I said, move it! I'm a CBI officer from lndia.. c'mon!

Hey.. my next target is Joshi's "future girl"

So what's gonna happen of you, Joshi?

Goddamit!

Rhea...?

There he is!

Pick up the phone.. pick it up!

Rhea! Nikhil here! Get out of there immediately!

Nikhil? Where are you calling from?

This is no time to explain. Leave immediately" your life's in danger

He's coming to kill you.. - Nikhil, I can't hear you

Rhea! Stop talking nonsense" - My battery's going dead, Nikhil

Listen to me, Rhea..

The battery's dead

Try your call again

Taxi!

"The world won't understand what's up between you and me"

"You and I, my love, share relations that have come a long way"

"My heart's yours, so am l.. hold me in your arms"

"My love, sweetheart."

"l have loved you, I swear it on you"

"My love, sweetheart."

"l have loved you, I swear it on you"

"the night will be set on fire"

In the can. careful

"Terror lurks everywhere.."

"lf only my life is spared tonight."

"who knows what might happen"

"The one with the innocent looks is now the target"

"l know it deep down in my heart.. somethings about to happen"

"My love, sweetheart."

"l have loved you, I swear it on you"

Are you okay? - I got to go..

You've met with an accident. - I got to go!

Hey! You're gonna die!

"Charming, bewitching.."

"l'm everybody's muse"

"l'm the fairy you dream of.."

"and yet, I'm called unfaithful"

"Like the flame, I've burnt my heart to shed the light of love"

"My love, sweetheart."

"l have loved you, I swear it on you"

C'mon.. move it!

Move!

Hey" stop him!

He's learnt the tricks!

Shit! - What's happening, Nikhil?

I want revenge from him! - Joshi-ji"

Joshi-ji"

hey Joshi-ji"

where you hiding, you stone-hearted man?

Come out in the open, will you?

He wants to kill me, isn't it? I'll go to him..

Rhea, listen to me.. - Let go of me! Let go!

What are you doing, Nikhil? - Hang on for a second

So this is my test

Sorry, I got to tie you up

"Come out in the open, you cheat"

"What secret in cheating me like this?

"Not even the Almighty shall be able to hide anymore.."

"this cry comes from the depths of my soul"

How long are you going to make me sing, Josh-ji ?

I have one bullet, one hour and one last target

Stop wasting your energy and my time!

What can I do, Joshi-ji"?

I had no idea my last target would be your future-girl

But there it is..

And you know, I leave no job unfinished

Because a job is..

Job is"?

A job is a job

Aah! Joshi-ji!

Roopchand Swaroopchand

All alone? Where's she"?

Honestly, man comes and goes from this world all alone

Aha! From a cabbie, you've grown into a philosopher!

But I'm no philosopher! I had lied that I have just one bullet left

I have a lot of slugs

Shoot" go on..

Fire..

Shoot me.. fire..

Without this gun, you're a zero.. zero!

Ever since you got into my cab, you've made my life miserable!

You got me to carry the body, forced me to taste blood..

I didn't force my way into your cab, did I?

That won't be necessary! Because you won't live anymore!

As if I came here to die at the hands of a cabbie!

Nikhil..

Brace up to die at the hands of an obsessed lover!

Now...?

Kill me! Kill me! - Rhea! No..

Let go.. - Kill me, kill me..

Kill me, go ahead!

Shit, you're wasting time again

Laila and Mane, are you?

Shirin and Farhad?

So you want to die the death of lovers? Very well..

I'll kill you like lovers

You tried to save so many people, but could you really?

Here's the last chance. Hug, embrace"

after that, I'll shoot

"Embrace, for there might not be a beautiful night like this ever again"

"For all you know, you might never meet each other ever again"

That's how it's going to be

I love you

Next time.
