Original subtitles

How much is the fare?

50 Rupees.

Mister... you've given me 100 Rupees by mistake.

Have I?

"What're you washing your face with the soda-water for, Ravi?"

Want to drive all night? You'd rather sleep.

Or you'll die slogging at this rate.

I can't go to sleep. How can I help it?

"Strange city, Mumbai... nobody ever goes to sleep."

Mister... will you drop me at Teen Batti?

Have some more... Let's celebrate!

Hey Pakya! What are the crowds for?

Ravi! The bride has arrived!

Bride? Without the customary procession and celebrations?

Gotya has got married. - What?!

Here's Ravi... my friend!

Where have you been? - Congratulations!

The bride!

"You have no house, Gotya. Where'|| you keep your wife?"

"Ever since I was born, the streets have been my house."

"|'ve grown up on the streets, haven't |?"

But your bride is here now. - So what?

"When God has given me a wife, he'll give me a house, too!"

"No house to live in; no bed to sleep on"

"No house to live in; no bed to sleep on"

God is our saviour

"He's the one who has brought us up"

"No house to live in; no bed to sleep in"

God is our saviour

"He's the one who has brought us up"

"|t's our lot to spend our lives on the pavements"

"What would we do with the high castles?"

The pavement is our parent

With no one really our own

"Our relationships are but forged ties"

All we have with us...

"is the darkness of the nights"

Brightness is not for us

God is our saviour

"What land is this... what ways are these?"

"Why do people always miss us, after we're dead?"

"|t's a land of the blind and the deaf..."

"plunged in darkness all around"

"With each one of us helpless..."

"How could we possibly hear another's woes?"

"We have to, but |ive..."

and drink merrily

"Life is a goblet filled with poison"

God is our saviour

"Without a house to live in; nor a bed to sleep on"

"We've been brought up on the pavements..."

God is our saviour

God is our saviour

He has brought us up

Why has your wife taken off the symbol of her marriage?

"|t's true that we still haven't got married, Ravi."

But we do want to wed.

It's a dream...

we want to fulfill some clay.

"When you can pretend to be married, why can't you really be man and wife?"

"What's your problem, Gotya? Tell me!"

Come on out...

Why don't you tell me? - You really want to know?

Because this girl is a prostitute!

And they'd never let her marry me!

Neither do I have to money to buy her out!

Why d0h't you simp|y run away?

It's not as easy! They reach far and wide!

"Honestly speaking, I don't have the courageous either!"

People call this a City of Dreams.

Will our dreams ever be fulfilled?

Will a whore ever be married?

I have a feeling that your dreams will be fulfilled!

Your dreams will surely be fulfilled!

"Go on now, Gotya."

They call this a City of Dreams.

Will our dreams ever be fulfilled then?

"Will a whore be married, too?"

Brother...!

Are you crazy...

to be standing out here in the middle of the night?

My birds are crazy actually.

I'm releasing them. But they're just going.

I know why they're not going away. - Why not?

Because it's a dangerous city.

They'd get killed by the bigger birds.

So what do I do with them? I'm going somewhere with my uncle.

And I can't carry them along. - Hand them over to me.

Will you look after them? - Sure.

"Nicely, too? - Of course."

"Where are you, Pooja?"

Here you are...

You are the first man in the city I haven't been scared of.

Come quickly!

lwant to go in.

Alright... Go in there.

What is it? - I've been called inside.

By Whom?

"Go and sit there, girl!"

"Come and sit down here, too!"

Beautiful! A wonder of nature!

I'm wonder-struck! I'm almost dead out of wonder!

Such a fair-skin... And a curvaceous body!

"Don't be scared, darling! I will do nothing!"

"|n fact, I can't do anything! That's because I'm half man and half woman."

"| have neither looks nor glow, a cruel joke of destiny!"

All that I possess is a great brain.

A great brain!

No wonder I serve men and sell women!

The King of the flesh trade...

"the name is "Maharani" !"

"What's all this, uncle? Let's go away from here!"

"|t's all fated, I tell you! It's what you call destiny."

You father and uncle had borrowed some money from me.

"To save your ailing grandpa, they'd pawned you with me."

"You understand pawning, don't you?"

Then say as much! Don't be shy!

They haven't repaid me in all these years.

"So I brought his daughter, to this brothel."

The poor chap's here to have his daughter released today.

Poor soul! He has no money to repay me...

and so he has brought you here.

You will stay in this brothel now. Instead of his daughter.

You can't do this to me uncle! I'm your niece!

That's the funny part of these relationships!

"When it comes to one's own life, they don't matter!"

What would this poor chap do?

He has to choose between his daughter and his niece.

What he did is right. It's your destiny that has drawn you here.

Nothing can be done about this anymore...!

"But I promise, I'll make a top-whore out of you!"

"Take me away from here! Let's go, uncle!"

"Forgive me, dear... Please forgive me!"

Cut the drama!

"Go away, Bansi! Get |ost!"

"No, Uncle! Don't desert me!"

Don't leave me here!

Would you go to Juhu? - Hop inside.

I saw your photograph in the newspapers recently...

you even won an award. - That's right.

Your snap appeared in the newspaper...

and an article was published in a weekly magazine.

You appear to be educated. Then why do you drive a cab?

I can't explain... but I'm looking for someone.

Can I help you? Whom are you looking for?

It's a face... I don't know if I will ever find it.

Stop the cab here.

How can I take the money from you?

"- Take it... - It's okay, sir."

"Very well. Should you ever need me, you'll find me here."

"Say what, Ravi... have you been driving all night?"

Yes. Here's the cage. Take care.

Have a cup of tea sent upstairs to me. - Rightaway.

You'd better have poison to die. Why have tea?

What's the matter now? - You've been driving for 40 hours!

"You'll die at this rate! - What'|| I do, if not work?"

"The moment I shut my eyes, I'm reminded of the ghastly scene!"

And I can't sleep anymore!

You must take treatment... or you'll go mad again!

You'll have to be given an electric shock. Understand?

"| can't forget my sister. I just can't, Sa|imbhai!"

"A|| I can think of in everything I do, is her!"

"|t's 7 years since she died, son."

You'll have to forget the nightmare.

"Besides, you can't die for those who are dead, can you?"

Ravi! The old man here is in bad shape!

What's happened to him?

Some thugs beat him up and escaped with his cab.

Where did this happen? - Near the Colaba Bus Station.

"Take him to the hospital. I'll be back soon. Let's go, Pakya."

"Come along, mister..."

"What are you looking at, smart-ass? Get |ost!"

I want some spare-parts for my cab.

Find a shop! What are you doing here?

"|'m looking for stolen stuff. - You're not a cop, are you?"

"Say what, Pakya! He thinks I'm a cop!"

As if I were a constable! One who limps!

Okay. Come along.

"You'll find everything here, buster."

Take your pick.

What's the cab worth?

The tyres are worth 10; the engine is 8.

"|'|| give you the body at 12. 40, in all."

Okay... I'll let you have it at 38. And that's final!

Get it?

10 plus 5 makes 15; plus 5 is 20...

- What are you up to? - Let me count this.

20 and 30...

I've asked for 38 thousand! And what are you doing?

38 thousand! Good God! I don't have so much of money!

"So what are you doing here, crazy guy? Get |ost!"

I have an idea.

I'll take this cab away without paying you.

Because it belongs to my uncle.

Are you out of your mind? Are you crazy?

You're right. I'm crazy... Want to see? I'm a tramp!

I'm mad!

Freeze! Or you're dead-meat!

Pakya... - Don't move!

Take the cab away!

"|'|| shoot, I say! - Take the cab away!"

He'll do nothing... just take the cab away.

No! - He'll kill you!

"You'll shoot me, eh? - I will!"

Go ahead... shoot!

Fire... shoot!

You dare beat up my uncle?!

You dare beat the old man up?!

No! Let him go!

It's a curse to have you in the family! I'll have your hide!

She's not in her room... - Your shoes! They're on!

Gfahdpa!

There's word from my sister after 2 years!

She's in a hospital in Bombay.

"Let's go and bring her back. Can we, grandpa?"

Where's Ward No 13? - Over there.

I'll kill you!

You can't keep me here! I will leave!

No...! I'm leaving this place!

"|'m going away, okay? I'm |eaving!"

Roopa...

No...

Please leave me alone!

"Roopa! This is Ravi! Your brother, Ravi!"

Ravi?

Don't touch me! I am tainted!

Don't say that. It'll be okay.

Everything will be all right.

It'll be okay.

How are you feeling? - I'm okay now.

"You will take me away from here, won't you?"

"|'m very scared... Take me away, please!"

I want to go back home.

Sure. We're here to take you back.

Grandpa... please forgive me.

I know I've made a blunder.

But I... I want to go back home.

Please take me home.

Can you tell me where I can find Miss Roopa?

It's right ahead. In the maternity ward.

What's happened?

That woman...

she won't let me return! She'll take me back in hell!

Ask her to go away!

No! Not you! Grandpa... talk to her!

Let's go! - No...

"What's wrong, grandpa?"

First let's get out of here! I'll explain.

Grandpa! Brother... Listen to me!

Why don't you speak... where are you taking me?

She's not the Roopa we're looking for! She has been tainted!

She's been a prostitute for 2 years! The woman has told me everything!

The lover she eloped with betrayed her and sold her to a brothel!

"She's dead, as far as we are concerned!"

She's even suffering from venereal diseases! She has dirty blood!

"No! She's my sister! And your flesh and blood, too!"

We can't go back without her! - Just come a|ong...!

We've been priests for three generations...

and people swear by the virtuousity of our ancestors!

People revere us as they revere God!

And how can I take back this sullied woman?

No! She has chosen this hell for herself!

Let's go back and just give her up for dead!

To hell with your culture and traditions! I want nothing of it!

"You can give me up for dead, too..."

where you thought you'd do it for my sister!

I'm going to my sister...

Brother! Save me!

No!

My sister...

I want my sister...

"Have these medicines brought, Mr Salim..."

and sign this form. You must admit him here immediately

Why?

We've got to give him electric shocks.

Before I can sign my friend's death warrant...

...wouldn't I rather die?

lt the usual practice administer electric shocks...

in a case of mental imbalances.

"|t's a usual practice, as far as you are concerned, doctor."

But he's not one of those usual friends.

What do you want me to do then? - Why must you do anything?

"He will, Who has given birth to him!"

"He who has given him the pain, will heal it too!"

There must be someone who can cure his heartburn. Who can care for him.

Now wait...

what are you crying for and creating a fuss?

"Stop crying, girl! It won't change your destiny!"

Wouldn't I change my lot if it helped?

"You're done, aren't you? Move aside!"

I cried a lot when people called me an eunuch.

But I was destined to be an eunuch and so I am one!

You are destined to be a whore...and you will be one!

"A top one at that, I promise. Hold this properly, buster!"

Come to terms with yourself; or you're going to regret it.

Never play_with your dest|ny!

And look at what the crying's done to her face! Stop crying!

"Who'd want to sleep with you, if you face is spoilt?"

Stop crying and get ready for the next full-moon night.

You don't know what a looker you are!

You're going to set the red-light area on fire!

Won't you say something? Why the glum face?

I can't unqerstand what gets |nto you!

"Say what, Salimbhai! I have an idea."

What is that? - Let's get him married.

"He'll talk on his own, when his wife nags him!"

Here comes Gotya.

"Listen, Gotya... - What is it?"

D'you know a girl we could get Ravi married to?

Don't look for one!

"The girl will transpire, if he's destined to meet her."

"God decides everything for everyone, you know!"

"Let's go, Ravi. Drop me at Chanda's place."

"No, not today. Find another cab."

"Oh come on! You'll go mad, if you just sit here."

Let's go. Get to work.

"|'ve got to pay someone the fare, haven't |?"

Why not pay my friend then? - You're right!

"Right, aren't I? Let's go then... Come on!"

"Wait here, Ravi. I'll be back soon."

Catch her! Don't let her escape!

Help! Save me... Take me away from here!

"Come on out... Come on out, I say!"

Take her upstairs!

"Why're forcing her, when she's not willing to go?"

Mind your own business!

Don't mess with us! I'll tear you apart!

Take him away... Scram! Go on... Get lost!

Don't act smart! Just get lost!

Go away... I'll take him.

Ravi... let's not get into trouble. Let's go!

Go and attend to your work. Go on!

You're the first man I haven't been scared of.

Take me away from here!

Save me!

"|n 7 years, it's for the first time that you've..."

"spoken about a girl, and not your dead sister."

lthink you'll make it.

"l can still see that innocent face, Salimbhai."

She's crying for help; she wants me to rush to her.

How much of money do I have with you?

"Around 30,000 Rupees, your savings in the last 7 years."

Let me have the money. I'll go and bring her today itself.

Will you stake all your savings for her?

"| know what love is, Ravi."

"Love is a fire that only rages on, once you get into it."

I almost got into a brawl with those guys.

What if they recognise me?

"What nonsense are you talking, Ravi?"

The drunkards and drug-abusers who come there...

wouldn't know their fathers. How'd they recognise you?

"But make sure you keep quiet once, we get there."

I'll do the talking. The rest we'll leave to Gullu.

Gullu? Who's that?

What?! Are you talking of...

running away with a girl from Maharani's brothel?!

You just don't know how difficult that is!

"| know that. But you've got to do it, somehow or the other."

And how will I do it?

Now look; I earn my living from these brothels.

"And I won't get my meals, if the girl doesn't return!"

What happens of me tomorrow? - Think of the tomorrow...

when you answer God for being a pimp all your life!

What happens when you're asked to account for your sins?

Do a good deed then... while you can!

"Hey idiot! You can't lock the door,..."

just because they make you sit there.

"Hey, dopey! Don't you see the customer I've brought?"

"Open the door, you bastard!"

"Say, Bho|u..."

let them in.

"Welcome, sir... This way."

"Welcome, Gotya!"

Why must you need pimps to come to my place?

I've brought a friend along.

He's a bit shy... he's never done this before.

Sit down... - He's returned from abroad...

and has tons of dough. - Which is why I've brought him here!

You won't find better girls anywhere in the area! That's a guarantee!

That's okay. But let's atleast take a look at the girls.

"Sure, why not? Go and call them out."

"There, mister... Take a |ook."

That's the girl I want.

Great! You're a very wise buyer!

You want the girl who's to be auctioned away today!

Why've you brought her out? She's already sold.

"This gentleman here has offered 10,000 Rupees."

"Take her away. - No! I'll pay 12,000 for her!"

Didn't I say we already have a deal?

Find another girl. Take her; she's a great looker.

"| won't compromise my word for just 2,000, okay?"

15000 - What?!

"Now that's something! See that, Maharani?"

The girl is getting her true worth!

"Had you sold her without a pimp, you'd have lost heavily!"

"|'m willing to pay 15,000 too."

"2o,ooo r-

"|f it comes to stubbornness, I can pay 30,000 too!"

"Here's the 30,000..."

"and here's 2,000 more. 32,000, in all."

"Here's 35,000 Rupees. - Fantastic!"

The girl will now go with the one who pays more!

Both their guys have emptied their pockets here.

"But, mister... I suggest you come tomorrow."

What difference will a single night make?

I'll let you have her for much lesser tomorrow.

No!

I'll go and get more money but the girl goes with me.

"Listen, mister! We're here in the marketplace."

"We sell our ware to the one we find here, okay?"

"Just as time waits for none, this market waits for none, too."

"You have a deal, if you have the dough. Or you can just get |ost!"

"Come on, Mister... You can have her. - Here you are, Ravi..."

"Not one bill at a time, Gotya. Get the wads out!"

Here you are. But the girl belongs to me!

"Relax! What's the hurry? Can you pay more than this, mister?"

"You've already committed the girl to me, Maharani!"

"This is no decency! This is cheating! - Hey, get |ost!"

When have pimps and whores ever been considered human...

that you're talking of decency? Here's your dough!

Go back to your shop where you con everyone you meet!

Don't give us sermons in honesty... scram!

"Say, mister... Listen!"

"Have the girl tonight, but be gentle with her."

She's a new bride.

What are the rest of the girls doing here? Go in!

Where are you going? Wait here!

"Leave her alone, Chanda!"

Go on... don't feel shy! Have fun!

She's pining for you; go to her!

"Show him to the special room, La||u."

"Come along, mister... - What's now?"

Can I take her out?

Why not? You've paid for her; you can take her anywhere.

But which hotel will you go to?

To the Citizen Hotel; we have a room booked there.

The one owned by Karimbhai? I know him. Go on.

"And listen, girl. This man's your husband tonight."

"You've got to please him! And no fuss, okay?"

"Go on, mister... Take her along."

Go on! Don't feel shy like kids!

"Also find a name you can call her, mister!"

Gotya... Mister Gotya! Where are you going?

Spend the night here... with Chanda.

No thank you. I must leave tonight. You know very well that...

"|'ve never spent a night with Chanda here, ever in the past."

But you'll have to spend the night here with her today.

Till such time as your friend returns with the girl...

you still stay here with us.

"Don't mind this, Gotya. It's my business, you know."

She's a new girl and he's a new customer.

How can anyone say that she'll surely safely?

So you remain pawned with me; till tomorrow morning.

"Go on, mister... Go on!"

And make sure you return on time tomorrow.

"Or else, we have your friend with us."

"Come along, Gotya..."

Chanda! Take Gotya inside.

You came there to save me and I didn't even recognise you.

The birds are still alive!

How could I let them die?

Keep them with you tonight.

"There's going to be a night after every day, Ravi."

"And Ravi (the Sun) will come everyday, too."

Till when? - Till I have set you free.

Where do you want to go now? - To a temple.

I want to seek something from God today.

"To make you belong to me, I have sworn"

"| have even seen a trace of desire in your eyes"

"To make you belong to me, I have pledged"

"l will show everyone what love really means"

"l will make the world bow before you"

"Your love has brought about this change, my |ove"

"| have sworn to make you belong to me"

"l will steal the redness from your lips"

"l will spend my life in your company"

"You exist in my life as if you were my blood"

"| have sworn to make you belong to me"

"|n your arms lie my life and heavens"

"| mean nothing without you, my |ove"

Having got you...

"| have got every happiness in the world"

"To make you belong to me, I have pledged"

"| have seen traces of desire in your eyes"

"| have sworn to make you belong to me"

Had only Gotya not been at the brothel...

I'd never have let you return.

After the respect you have given me in one night...

I won't regret even losing my life now.

"l will not let anything happen to you, Pooja."

I need you.

I'll come there tonight and take you away forever.

I don't care what happens to me.

"This is sheer madness, Ravi!"

"Drill some sense into his head, Sa|imbhai!"

He's raised the money by pawning his cab. So he can pay to save the girl.

How _long will_ he save the g|r| by do|ng that?

I've got to save the girl!

Even if I sell myself!

Did you hear that?

"You've heard him, haven't you?"

Let me go! Let go! - Just come along!

Didn't I say I don't want to go with you?

Don't ever use force on me!

"So what if I'm a whore; I'm human, too!"

I will not sleep with him! - Just come along!

Don't make a fuss... just come along!

What was that?

Whom were you making those gestures at?

Don't you dare push him! He's a customer!

"And you can't push customers around! - Lay off, you pimp!"

What are you doing here? Go and find customers!

You call me a pimp?

Must I tell you what you are? Must I...

What's that? What are you going to call him?

Come here... come here!

Come closer and tell me what you were telling him!

"Well, punk? So what if he's not a real man like you?"

He has the strength of five men in him!

Now tell me... what have you come here for?

I've brought the same money-bags with me today.

He's got a lot of money again.

"So you've returned, eh?"

"What will you do with the girl? Not pickle her, I hope?"

What does that mean to you? I'm willing to pay you.

It does mean a lot to me!

I haven't spent 30 years in the flesh-trade for nothing!

When you brought back the girl this morning....

I knew from her gait itself that you hadn't slept with her!

I'm willing to pay you more money today.

"And I'll also leave Gotya here, if you wish."

"But that girl goes with me tonight, okay?"

We're into business in this brothel!

It's our lot to please all our customers.

Crazy guys like you come only once in a while...

who pay 30 grand and still don't sleep with the girls!

You're either crazy or you are in love with her.

And both things spell danger for me.

Go and find another brothel.

Or take another girl today.

I'll let you have Chanda for free.

"She's your friend's lady-love, you know? Make love to her tonight."

No. I want that girl alone.

My God! I'm fed up of you!

What a crazy chap!

"Hey, hero... throw this chap out."

"Throw him out, I say!"

You're still turning around? Get lost!

Hold it! You can't hit him! You can't hit a customer!

"You too can go to hell, you pimp!"

"Whenever they have prevented..."

"someone from falling in |ove..."

"|ove has only gained in strength"

"As and when the world torments |overs..."

"|ove will only grow stronger"

"Let them do that which they can; they can't wipe it out"

"Love will only grow stronger"

"As and when they have stopped |overs..."

The clouds from pouring...

The lightning from striking

no one can ever stop them

Never can they stop them

"The fragrance of the roses..."

"The chirpiness of the birds..."

They can never stop

"They can never be stopped"

"Whenever the path of |ove..."

is obstructed...

"|ove will only grow stronger"

"Whenever lovers have been prevented..."

"How can they wipe out memories..."

"the promises that the beloved makes..."

"They can never be shackled"

"Shack|ed they can never be"

The treasures of desire

"and the incidents the eyes have witnessed"

"They can never be killed"

"As and when the world builds walls between |overs..."

"|ove will only grow stronger"

"Whenever they have prevented |overs..."

"|ove has only grown in strength"

"Love will only grow in strength"

No matter what they do

"They can never wipe it out"

"|t will only grow in strength"

"Whenever they have prevented lovers from meeting..."

I can let you have the girl on one condition.

Only if you're willing to make love to her...

"in my brothel and in my presence, that is."

Okay?

Why are you feeling shy? You know me well already!

Tell me... is that okay?

Okay. I agree.

Really? Let's go inside... Come on!

I'm a virgin... just as this girl is.

So what? Get hold of her! There's nothing wrong!

I want to ask you something about making love.

What is that? - Come closer.

Why must I? Just grab her! I'll watch you!

Come here for a moment. - Okay...

It's just that...

Just what? Speak up!

"It's that... - You're feeling shy, aren't you?"

Tell it to me my ears. Go on...

"Open the door. Else, I'll slit open the eunuch's throat!"

Open the door! Quick!

"Get out, Pooja! Out, Gotya!"

"Let's go, Chanda! - Go on, Gu||u!"

"Come on, Gotya!"

What's happened to Maharani? - He's lost blood!

Let's take him to the hospital.

No! No!

Let me bleed! Let it hurt me!

This blood and the pain in my stomach...

will always remind me...

of the fact that the bastard has fled...

with a girl from my brothel!

This wound will remain raw till such time...

as I find the girl.

I will dig a grave for the bastard in this very area!

"Else, I'll never boast about my name again!"

Where's Gotya?

And Chanda?

"My heart has come alive... as soon as I've met you"

"| have this desire to live on..."

"from this day to the day of reckoning"

"My heart has come alive; as soon as I've met you"

"| have this desire to live on..."

"from this day to the day of reckoning"

"Never was there such romance in the air..."

"Never was there a magic played on the heart"

"Never had the heart desired so much"

"Never had it been through this"

"There's joy now in the heart..."

with sorrows behind us

I feel like flying away...

"kissing the skies and coming back"

The desire to live on...

"will stay till the day of reckoning"

"My heart leapt with joy, soon as I met you"

The world seems new

"There's a new feeling in the heart"

"The weather seems to have changed..."

"goading my heart into something else"

"My dreams have come true; I have the one I |oved"

"We have now to live it up in the world of our dreams"

The desire to live on...

"will stay till the day of reckoning"

"My heart leapt with joy; soon as I saw you"

To live on...

"| want to till the day of reckoning"

God bless them all.

"l've clone something noble in life, after all."

My slippers have snapped? That's okay.

But what will happen of me? I can't return to Maharani.

"She'll kill me. I've rubbed the wrong way, haven't l?"

Help! Save me!

"Karim! Save me! Help me, someone!"

They'll kill me! Save me!

Maharani! Forgive me! I've made a mistake! I'll never do it again!

I knew it! I knew that God punishes us for our misdeeds!

Where will would a pimp like me die? Right here!

But tell me... how are you going to kill me?

Tell me... kill me quickly!

"|t's not your mistake, Gu||u."

"|t's your legs, actually."

"You ran far away from me, didn't you?"

Break his legs. - No!

Play the music....

Don't! Don't break my legs! Help me someone!

Louder!

Have some more sweets... - No thank you.

"|t's not me, but Gotya who's married. Give it to him."

"No, thank you. He's kidding."

"You don't want us to die out of over-eating, do you?"

I've just got married. Let us live for some days more.

"Am I right, Sa|imbhai?"

"Take the ladies inside, while I talk to your husband."

Please come with me.

What are you thinking about?

That which you don't want to think about.

For how long can you keep escaping them?

Pakya told me that they were at the hotel today looking for you.

"They'll be here soon, Ravi!"

For how long will you hide yourself from them?

He's right. I didn't tell you...

but they came and ransacked my shop. My business is ruined.

So what do I do? Take her back to the brothel?

Why don't you understand?! I'm in love with her!

When I have asked you to take her back...

or stop loving her?

All I want us to is to file a police complaint...

and seek their help.

Do you know of someone who might be able to help us?

"Yes, I do."

"You haven't told anyone about this, have you?"

No. Which is why we wanted to talk to you first.

"Please tell us what we must do, sir."

We know it's difficult to escape from them...

"but it's a question of saving two innocent girls, sir."

Where are the girls now? - At a friend's place.

But it'll be difficult to keep them there much longer.

I've got to record the girls’ statement to register a case.

"Till I register a case, I can't arrest those thugs."

These guys from the flesh-trade reach far and wide.

We've got to be careful.

Bring the girls to the Satyam Car Park.

"|'|| record their statement, register a case..."

and extend police protection to you.

"Run away, Gotya!"

Hide-n-seek... we play!

"Run away, mice... the cat is here!"

The cat meowed and said...

why are you scared?

I'm going away on a pilgrimage...

come and see me off!

Gotya! No!

"Escape! Go away, Ravi!"

"so, Gotya?"

"|t hurts, doesn't it?"

Wait a minute...

"You have betrayed your duties, |nspector!"

You have betrayed the medal you have won!

"But always remember, |nspector..."

lwill return.

"l will hide the girl and come back, lnspector!"

And then... the papers will carry your photograph...

for the last time. Dead!

He's escaped with my jeep!

I have seniors... How will I answer them?

"| don't know what to do! - Cool down, Inspector. Calm down."

Fetch him a cold drink. - Wait there.

I don't want a cold drink. Let's talk business!

Business?

Here you are!

Are you crazy? - You have a case now!

Tell your seniors that you were returning from duty...

when that boy attacked you; slashed you with the razor...

he stole my money and fled with yourjeep.

Set the police of the whole country after him!

Go on.

Have the registration number sent everywhere!

Every check-post on every road must have the registration number!

He has run away with a jeep belonging to our department!

It's okay... I'm fine.

Who's that? - This is Ravi here.

Where are you calling from? - I don't know.

I don't even know where I'll be going from here.

All I know is that Pooja's life is in peril in Mumbai.

We have been betrayed!

The inspector turned out to be a stooge of Maharani!

I'll call you again.

You must look after yourself.

God protect you. - God go with you.

Are you okay? - Yes.

ls there a place I can drop you at and return to the city?

Do you want to return?

Gotya was a friend.

There's a palace some distance from here.

My uncle is the caretaker there. We can go there.

Rest for some time. You must be tired. -No. I must return. I can't stay here.

When will you come back? - Perhaps never.

"Who was that, Pooja?"

He's bleeding! - Let's take him to a doctor.

It's a bullet-wound.

A doctor would surely inform the police.

"And they... they will track us down, Pooja."

I will not go to a doctor.

Not a doctorm!

"Do come in, physician..."

Who's he? What's wrong? - He's suffered a bullet wound.

A bullet-injury? Why didn't you tell me?

What can I do about it? - Why don't you atleast look him over?

It's a bad injury. He's running a high fever.

"|'m a not a doctor, Shiva! I can't do anything!"

"Take him to a hospital, if you want to save him."

No. We can't take him to a hospital.

"|f we don't, he'll die; here, in our house!"

I know that!

"But if we take him to the hospital, the police will get know."

Should that happen... - What's wrong with that?

They'll take me back to the same brothel...

from where he rescued me!

I beg of you doctor! Please do something!

Okay. Mix some turmeric in a bowl of butter...

and apply it on his wounds. When he regains consciousness...

"give him hot milk, laced with turmeric."

The rest is upto to God!

"No, Gotya! No!"

Let me go... I'll kill them!

"Ca|m down, Ravi... It'll be okay."

Everything will be all right!

Yes?

I want to question you. - Yes?

Your friend is in trouble.

"Tell me his whereabouts, if you know about it."

"|'m a cop, after all. I want to help him."

"| know nothing, sir."

"|'d have told you, if I knew."

Your face suggests that you already know a lot.

Did he call?

N0?

Looks like you've never been to a police station.

"|'m speaking the truth, sir! I know nothing!"

Why would I lie? - You're right.

You don't know anything. - No!

He knows nothing.

But still keep an eye on him.

"Because, sooner or later the bastard will come calling."

How's he? - He's fine now.

ls he asleep? - No. He's awake.

It's thanks to him that you're recovered. He has saved your life.

Not true. It's because of her that you've got a new lease of life.

"Thank you, all the same."

I want to telephone my friend in Mumbai.

Where can I make a call from? - Relax!

You'd have to go to the post-office for that.

But take rest for now and have the medicines he's made.

You'll soon be normal.

"Give him the medicine, dear."

This is a hill-station visited by many tourists.

It's difficult to find a couple of them out here.

You can at least do your best!

We are sure that they are in that region.

The girl comes from your very place. - We'll do out best.

They'll find them.

Where's the phone? - In there.

Some tea and biscuits. Quick!

Isn't that Shiva's niece?

No. You're always imagining things.

Who's the guy with her? - I wouldn't know.

Who's that? - This is Ravi.

How are you? And where are you calling from?

I'm okay.

Don't come back here. They're looking for you.

I badly need some money. If you could send me some...

Sure. Give me the address. - The address is...

Very well. I'll have a money order sent to you rightaway.

- God go with you. - Bye!

I'm going to the market and will return late in the evening.

"Take care, dear. - Okay, uncle."

I can't live without you

"Had you not come along, I'd long have died"

I can't live without you

"Had you not come along, I'd long have died"

"|'d never have known what love means"

I can't live without you

"Hadn't you come along, I'd long have died"

"And never have known what love is all about"

"| couldn't live anywhere without you..."

"Had you not come along, I'd have died"

"Roses have blossomed; there's fragrance everywhere"

"Love has brought back the spring"

"You can fall in love but once, my darling"

"| feel like making love to you"

"And pouring out my heart to you"

"Had it not been for you, I'd never have fallen in |ove"

"Whom would I have poured my heart out to"

"|'d never have known what love is all about"

"| can't forget those things about you..."

even if I tried to

"|'ve spend many days and nights thinking of you"

"|f I were ever to be distanced from you..."

You'd always miss me

"|t's the things you say that scare me"

"And don't you also pester me?"

"|'d never have known what love is all about"

"Even in the mirrors I look into..."

"l find myself a reflection of you"

"Whenever I breathe, I think of you"

"|t's difficult to live without you anymore"

"|'m your heart; so you are mine"

"|'d have regretted it all my |ife..."

"had I kept a secret from you"

"|'d have known what love is all about"

"| can't live anywhere without you"

"Had you not come along, I'd long have died"

"|'d never have known what love is all about"

Uncle...

I'm sorry for the trouble we've put you through.

This is no city.

It's a small place and people talk! - I know that.

Which is why I want to marry Pooja at the earliest.

"|f you agree,..."

I'll call my friend Salim and ask him to send me some money.

So that you are not burdened with the wedding expenses.

Water.

"Don't ask for water, Salim! We'll give you imported liquor!"

Just tell us where your friend is.

We've been asking you for the last two hours!

Now look; if you don't tell us the whereabouts...

that chap there will rip open your stomach...

and come up with the note that you've swallowed!

I spit on you! Wh°m a"? you threatening?!

"You'll kill me, won't you? Go ahead!"

But I still won't tell you where my friend is! Never!

He's spitting on me! He's trying to scare me!

Okay... finish him off! Quick!

Can I speak to Salim? - This is Pakya here.

What are you doing there? - They've killed him...

They've killed Salim! He's no more!

Has your girl has brought a bed-mate from the city?

Aren't you ashamed to be saying such things?

She's the one who should've been ashamed...

who's having a rollicking affair with her lover!

Couldn't she have made do with one of us? We weren't dead!

Can't you see where you're going?! What do you think you're doing?

"|t's that guy, sir... He's given us a thrashing!"

"We've found the guy you wanted, sir!"

Have you found the one matching the description?

They've killed Salim.

I'm going back. I must go.

"After Gotya and Chanda, they've killed Salim now."

This is too much. I must stop them.

"l can't let more lives be lost, because of me."

"Don't cry, Pooja. Your tears will weaken me."

And I've always considered your love a strength.

Before you leave... I want to marry you.

Today... now... at this moment!

I want nothing more than that.

"|'ve seen the world in all its hues..."

"there's none greater than |ove"

"Come and embrace me; there's nothing but |ove"

"|'ve seen thousands of hues to the world..."

"There's none greater than |ove"

"You are the only one I have |oved"

"|'d sacrifice all my desires for you"

"|t's in these tresses that I must |ive"

"lt's in my heart that you will always live"

"|t's this restlessness of love that gives me pleasure"

"There's nothing greater than |ove"

"Come and embrace me; there's nothing but |ove"

"|'ve seen a thousand hues to the world"

"There's none greater than |ove"

As a desire of love...

"always remain in my heart, as my life would"

I'm crazy about you

My life is meant for you

"|'d lay down my life for you..."

"for there's nothing greater than |ove"

"Come and embrace me; there's nothing but |ove"

"|'ve seen a thousand hues to the world"

"There's none greater than |ove"

The only truth is love

Love is truth

"Run away, Pooja!"

"Run, Pooja!"

"Go on, Pooja!"

"Run, Pooja!"

"Faster, Pooja! Run!"

Run!

Carry him.

Brother!

Stop wailing!

Stop it!

Quiet and come along.

"Your dog has been wailing, inspector."

D'you know when that happens?

Only when it senses death.

Run away from your death... if you can!

Whose death is at hand? Tell me. - Shoot! Go ahead...!

"Run away from your death, if you still can!"

Run!

I'll rip her apart!

Let's go! I'll show you something!

I've decked up the whole of the marketplace for you!

You're going to be a bride tonight!

Give me a smile!

Your groom must be on his way here.

Here comes the swine!

"Listen, cur! Aren't you still dead?"

"Do you have nine lives like the cat, too?"

Go downstairs and fix him!

Don't kill me!

"Come on out, you eunuch!"

You've killed my sister! I will not spare you today!

I will burn your fiefdom of sin with you today!

"Hiding inside?! Are you scared, you faggot?!"

"Hey, sidey... the swine is back down there!"

It's for this day that I've fed you so much! Go and deal with him! Hurry up!

"Come on out, you eunuch! Bloody coward!"

Eunuch! Bloody faggot!

See! It doesn't hurt!

Don't come closer!

Are you a true man? How can you hit an eunuch?!

"|f you come any closer, I'll set the place on fire!"

"l'll die, all right..."

but Pooja and you will burn to death with me!

They call me Maharani!

Clobber him!

Thrash him! Kill him!

There... look at that!

She's going to die just as your sister did!

Brother!

"Help, brother!"

"Jump, dear."

No!

"Jump, I say! Jump!"

I'm here! Come down to me!

God A|mighty...!

Ravi was punished for taking the law in his hands.

But then...
