Original subtitles

So these are the final scores.

The Mavericks have been stupendous once again,

with Perera being unable to work any magic for the Legends.

In fact, he was taken to the cleaners by Vayu and Arvind.

Next, the Mavericks will play the Hurricanes, whereas the Legends will take on the Sultans.

Until next time, good night!

Thank you, Ruth.

I'd rather not. - Come on.

To celebrate a big win.

That was a tough match.

If you wanted to celebrate, we should've flown with the team.

I don't like to fly in planes that I don't own.

Pepper?

So...

here's the playing eleven for the next match.

Take a look.

Mr Dhawan,

the selection is done by the team management.

I can't... - Zarina!

You're a team co-owner. You are the management.

I can't interfere with the team's selection.

That's Arvind's and the coach's call.

Arvind...

Then talk to him.

He won't say no to you, will he?

But...

This list...

Especially, Prashant Kanaujia.

Arvind doesn't think he's ready.

But your team analyst, uh, Rohini Raghavan...

she seems to think he's ready.

Look, Zarina...

My sports management company is about to sign Prashant.

I want him to be more visible, more popular.

I want him to play for India.

And that's only possible if he plays for the Mavericks.

But isn't this a conflict of interest?

That was your reason to cancel my endorsement deal.

Then why...? - Why aren't you having your dinner?

I don't eat red meat.

Do you know what this is, Ms Malik?

This is a Wagyu steak.

Flown in from Japan, less than four hours ago,

in a special pressurised container.

So it doesn't lose its texture.

Cooked here, on my plane,

on a temperature-controlled grill

by one of the best chefs in the world.

You can't really say no to me, Ms Malik.

Open wide, princess.

That's better.

Niranjan, sir, can we please check the mic?

Uh, sure.

Check, check. - Got it.

Five minutes to roll. Makeup check.

Makeup, makeup!

Sir, you guys totally destroyed Perera's career.

He won't even play for Sri Lanka now.

How'd you crack him, sir?

Sunil, if I start spilling these secrets

I'll lose my job!

You know when I was young, I'd tell dad Suri uncle was my favourite batsman, and not him.

Really? - He'd get really annoyed.

I'm not surprised. He was always the jealous type.

How's he? - He's fine.

Ma'am, your phone. - Sorry, it's just...

I'm talking here. - It's been constantly ringing.

But it's so true. You've played 52 Tests

and all through that, you've been aggressive

but technically on point. But the T20 batsmen nowadays...!

It's like all aggression and no technique.

Well, the batsmen are not at fault.

They get paid for hitting sixes these days.

Yeah, I guess. - Still,

there are batsmen who are interesting to watch. Really.

Vayu, for example.

I mean, he's a delight to watch.

The boy has his own technique.

In the 70s and 80s, Sunil G was the template, you know.

Yeah. - Later, Sachin.

This boy created his own template

with his brand of batting. He's fearless.

And in the end, that's what matters.

By the way, is there something between you and Vayu...?

Of course not!

But I tell you, he's a big find for India.

Yeah.

Put the molebeam away!

No, next to the 18K! Yes, right there.

You! Bring a cutter stand.

Why are you still here, asshole? Go, get a cutter stand!

Sir, I...? - Who else am I talking to, prick?

Sir, where is the c... cutter...?

Motherfucker! Do I have to tell you where the fuck it is? - Wait, wait!

This is Prashant. - Who?

Prashant Kanaujia. The new player for the Mavericks.

Sorry, sir. - Don't mind.

Come over here. You! Take care of sir!

We've lucked out with this ad, don't fuck it up, idiot! Come!

Two is enough. - Take another one, sir...

Even Mr Amitabh Bachchan sits on three.

Apple a day, doctor away!

Asshole, gorging on fruit, huh?

Did you have anything other than sugarcane back in the village?

No no, go on, eat... You're still a growing child...

Know what, Raghu? - Yes?

Back in the village,

Kanaujia would've been washing my underpants by the riverbank.

That too with a special soap.

But I thought you don't wear underpants?

Then, bastard would wipe my ass!

I can just imagine him at it!

Well, am I right or not?

Are there any babes around here?

Let's find out.

You get 24 deliveries in a match.

You bowl twenty the way you want.

And four the way we want.

Match fixing?

Spot fixing.

Let me put it to you this way.

Next month is your marriage anniversary.

So what do you want to gift your wife?

A shiny new diamond ring?

Or pictures of yourself with another man?

My career... - You don't tell anyone.

We won't either.

Hi. I'm Gary. - Hello.

Good to see you all. I'm your director.

And, this is Rajeev. - Hello, boys.

I'm Rajeev Surti. I'm your choreographer.

And today...

Who is he?

Don't you know him? - No.

Prashant Kanaujia. Mavericks' latest recruit.

Oh!

Prashant, why don't you take a seat, we'll call you.

He's useless even when erect...

Gary, all this is fine. But what's the connection

between a train and the phone? - Oh, yes.

A train transports the common man.

Similarly, this phone is for the common man.

Cheap and durable.

Incredible idea! Wow! - Amazing.

What a thought! - What are we supposed to do?

Rajeev. - Sure.

The steps are really easy, very basic.

We'll show you. Mac, please.

Ready. Sound.

I can't do that. - What the fuck is that?

We're gonna be here the whole day. - I can't do this.

Do you wanna try that?

Are you sure? - How do they move like that?!

Arvind, go talk to Zarina about this.

What did you say? - It's a short film.

Things aren't that bad yet, Niki. I'm not doing it.

Z, the poster fiasco has ruined everything.

Everyone in the industry and media is talking about it.

And what are you doing about it, Niki?

You're my manager, right?

Make something up. Say it's marketing or something.

Spin the story. - Z, this short film

is a good idea.

We have to remind people that you're still...

That I'm still what...? A star?

A great actor?

Huh?

I've done over thirty films, Nikita.

I don't think anyone needs a reminder of how good I am.

I'm not doing it!

Hi.

I'm sorry, I...

It's okay. I was... I was just leaving anyway.

Okay, go. - No, you can stay.

Zarina, this script...

Do we really have to dance?

Can't you get it changed? - That's not how it works.

Anyway, dancing is about using your feet... like cricket.

And you already have great footwork.

I could teach you. - You're gonna teach me how to dance?

Yeah.

In that case, it's cool.

Arvind...

I want to talk to you about something.

Now?

Not now. Later?

Okay.

Camera is rolling. And music.

Come on everyone!

And 5, 6, 7, 8...

Lovely guys!

Cut! Cut! Cut! Cut! Hold on!

Not like this. Look... from here, open... join.

Open, join... twice.

Can all of you do it? - Yes we can.

Go ahead then. - Open...

That's what we're doing. - No, no!

Of course, sir. - No, no. Look here. 1...

2, 3, 4.

Here 1, 2, 3, - How and, uh, when do you do this?

4...

Let's take a short break, guys.

Okay guys, lunch break!

The shoot is on, right? - Hmm.

Aren't you supposed to be rehearsing with the others?

Get the fuck out, asshole!

You're Dhawan's stooge, aren't you?

You can call me Pritish.

And you can call me Superman.

In fact, from now on you'll call me Superman.

Vayu, asshole!

Hold on, I'm coming there!

I think I like her name for you better.

Stooge!

Dude! - Jolene!

What's up? I'm good. What's up with you? - How're you? You're on this shoot?

I have a jumbo joint. Wanna smoke?

You're still assisting? When'll you make your own film?

Are you producing it, asshole?

When'll you stop swearing at me?

When you stop thinking with your dick! - What are you doing?

Hey, I'm sorry, I didn't call you back.

And for that, you owe me two orgasms, Vayu, son of a bitch!

Maybe, you should pay me back... right now.

Fuck!

Whoa! - Shh shh! Jolene!

Hey. - Hey.

Are you busy? - No... I'm... I'm alone.

Are you sure? - Yeah.

Okay. Tell me.

Tell you... tell you what? - You called earlier?

Yes, actually...

I wanted to know if maybe later you were...?

Fuck, Jolene! - Oh, fuck!

Vayu, I thought you said you were alone? - No, I am... She just...

She just what? - I'm... I'm on a set right now.

What the hell?! - Meera, Meera...

Don't hang up... Hello? Shit!

Jolene?

You all right? You okay?

Shahana ma'am...

Maldives calendar shoot ... do you remember?

I was assisting Mr Babboo on that gig.

That was one of my most memorable shoots ever.

The camera was absolutely in love with you.

Thank you.

Suraj d'Costa.

May I?

Sure, yeah.

Just a minute please.

Could I see that? - Yeah, sure.

Gorgeous!

Thank you, it's... it's quite nice.

Let's do an exclusive sometime.

Yeah.

See you around.

Fuck!

Hey, Shahana.

I want some.

You know what the problem with the world is?

Relationships.

Exactly.

Okay.

Good talk.

You wanted to tell me something?

Yes, I actually wanted to talk about the team.

I think...

Hi, Shahana!

Tell you what, we can talk about the team later.

So, I... I probably need a touch-up.

I'll be back. See you.

You're drinking here?

What're you doing?

Do you think you'll make it to the Mavericks' playing eleven?

Prashant...?

Perhaps you brought me to Mumbai a bit too early.

When Vayu was playing in the domestic league,

all the experts agreed that he won't get picked for the Indian team.

He's a flat track bully,

he's inconsistent,

etc.

But Vayu is Vayu after all.

He only listened to himself.

I used to talk to him every day.

I'd suggest technical changes ... but nothing.

Then one day he came to me

and asked me, 'Do you think I'll ever play for India?'

I just kept mum.

But he understood.

He took my notes.

And every day and every night,

he started working to correct his weaknesses.

I always knew that he could do it.

All he needed was the hunger

that only the best players in the world have;

the desire to overcome one's own weaknesses.

The last few weeks have been difficult for you, I know.

But you have that trait in you.

I have faith in you.

And if my stupid brother can do it, then you definitely can!

Understand?

What's going on between the two of you here?

Mr Prashant Kanaujia, please tell me as well.

Mr Devender... - Hello.

Just small talk. Nothing is going on.

Well, let me tell you, he is a very decent chap.

Talented and hardworking.

I've told him to come to me if he needs any help.

I'm here for him. - How sweet!

Did you shampoo your hair? - Anyway...!

See you later, Prashant.

Bye. - Bye.

Listen up, asshole!

Don't try to swing it in here. This is my pitch! Understood?

I'll bowl.

Put a tight leash on your cock.

Else, I'll kick your nut sack out of the park!

Get that?

Dig that?

In the meantime like I said, I'm here for you.

Vayu!

This is the third time you've dozed off! - Oh, please.

Last night...

I'm a bit hungover. Let me sleep.

Ro Ro, just... - Bloody idiot!

Just go away! Damn it!

Useless!

Rohini, stop it!

Oh... Shahana!

May I?

Yeah, come... sit.

You know, I was thinking about that thing you said earlier, about relationships.

Actually, I didn't say anything. You did.

Oh!

Yeah.

Vayu, it's difficult to understand people like us, right?

Yeah, I guess so.

Do you have a girlfriend?

I... I...

Where's Arvind? Maybe we should... - Fuck him!

Shahana, look... let's not...

Let's not what? - Please...

I'm just talking.

Shahana...

Shahana, please don't go there.

Just don't.

I'm sorry.

Prashant, come on.

Where to...? - Your training starts today! C'mon!

Where are we going? What about the shoot? - Fuck the shoot! It's crazy in there.

But where are we going?

Asshole, watch where you're going.

Motherfucker! Come on!

Shahana...

Why are you crying? - Get lost!

Shahana, please!

You've been embarrassing me in front of my team since morning!

I'm their captain.

I'm so sorry, Arvind, I'm embarrassing you.

After Chennai, I came here so that we could mend things.

But you didn't even look at me the whole day.

My mistake.

I was a fool, I was just wasting my time.

What can I expect from a man who can't bear

to live with his wife?

Don't be silly, Shahana.

You know that the entire team is put up at the hotel.

These are the rules. - Rules, huh?

You seem to be the only person in the PPL to be following these rules.

That's just an excuse.

It's better you don't come home now.

I think you'll be happier that way.

And 1, 2, 3, 4!

And that's a wrap!

Thank you guys! Beautiful work!

Thank you, thank you so much all of you!

Thank you. - Thank you.

Thank you everyone.

So...

how's Prashant doing?

He needs more time.

I read Rohini's report about Prashant.

His numbers are quite strong.

He'd do well in Chandigarh, no?

Zarina, cricket is not played by numbers.

I have

played 9 Tests and 12 ODIs in Chandigarh for India.

I know better than Rohini

who or what will work on that ground.

Sure but,

we have to give newer players a chance sooner or later.

Hurricanes are weak now. And we are on the second spot.

Are you asking me or telling me about the team selection?

Arvind, I'm co-owner of the team.

Obviously I'm concerned about it.

Okay. If you are really all that concerned,

come to the nets tomorrow

and see for yourself whether Prashant is ready or not.

Yeah?

Okay.

There's a limit of 1.5 million every month. - That's all?

Okay, okay... it'll do.

Thank you.

Baby!

Yeah? - This is the dress to have this summer!

This is very pretty.

It's perfect for the winters, no?

Which one you want to buy?

I think, this one...?

Shall we get both, baby?

Mr Raghunath, is this your card?

Nope. I stole it.

No, sir... actually, the name on the card is different.

You know who I am, right?

Yes, sir, but...

for a transaction of 250,000...

Call the cops then.

Sorry, sir, I didn't mean that. - No, no! Call them, asshole!

I won't, sir. - Friggin' Sherlock, aren't you?

Baby, calm down. - Call them! Manager...

Where the fuck is the manager? - It's done, sir.

Manager! - It's done, sir.

What's done, asshole? - Your transaction, sir.

Baby, stop it.

Done? - Yes, sir.

See?

That's the problem. Have to abuse them to get anything done!

Sorry, sir. - You're lucky you got the point.

Otherwise, you'd be selling lingerie on the streets tomorrow.

Got it? Now get the bag.

Quick!

Let's go, baby.

Sweetie, it's 'lingerie' by the way. - What?

It's lingerie.

Clothes worth 250,000... all for you.

Now, how do you pronounce the word?

Lingerie. - Lingerie, yes.

Good. Shall we?

If I miss the ball thrice, I'll gift you a nice watch.

And what if I get you clean-bowled?

Fuck off,

clean bowl Vayu Raghavan?

Okay, fine! If you get me clean-bowled,

I'll give you my phone. Okay?

This is how you're going to bowl me out? Come on, again.

Better, better... much better.

Keep trying. You want that phone, don't you? - Yes.

C'mon.

Bowled! Yeah! Yeah!

Hello? - Hi.

I just heard that you were at the shoot all day.

I'm sorry I hung up on you earlier.

I...

I just got bowled. - What?

Nothing, nothing... go on.

Well, I was thinking...

I mean, I get off work in half an hour...

maybe we can do dinner...? - Yeah.

Sure. Our usual place?

Yeah. - Cool. I'll see you.

Okay. Bye.

Hello! Hello!

Hello! Hello!

But why are you dancing? I just bowled you out!

Sonny boy, you are still a toddler. You don't know the joys of youth yet.

Vayu! - What?

I got your wicket. Where's my phone? - Are you nuts?

That was only meant for inspiration.

You take everything so seriously. I'll see you tomorrow.

Keep practising.

Okay, that's enough. Enough now... get out!

Hey!

Hi. How are you? - I'm fine.

Come, come, come.

Thank you. - Yeah.

That's not how it looked.

I was trying to send her away but she just wouldn't budge.

It's okay.

It's okay...?

Are you being sarcastic?

No, Vayu Raghavan. I'm not being sarcastic.

Okay, good.

It's been a really weird day for me.

First it was Jolene. - Jolene?

Yes, she... I mean, at the shoot....

she was annoying me.

Actually, it was that Shahana... - Shahana?

Yes... Arvind's wife.

Oh yes! What did she do?

What did she do...?

Nothing, she did nothing.

Just... you know...

Okay.

What?

What?

I'm just saying. It looks like you had a really interesting day.

Okay, now you are being sarcastic.

I'm not being sarcastic. What is wrong with you?

Listen, there's nothing wrong with me. - So there's something wrong with me then?

I started this? - No. I started it, right?

You just got here for God's sake! - Exactly!

Seriously, Meera! Please just stop doing this, okay?

I'm not doing anything.

Stop it!

Let's order! - Vayu!

What? - People are watching.

What? - People are watching!

Smile.

What? - Smile.

What? - Smile.

Say 'eee'.

Yeah? Now get up.

Get up.

And follow me.

Keep smiling.

Look! I've been putting in all the effort...

I've called you so many times. I...

And I responded. I tried my best to forget the past.

And so have I!

What have you forgotten? Tell me.

How am I supposed to remember what I have forgotten?

Tell me honestly. Were you being sarcastic?

No!

No, I wasn't!

You asshole!

Vayu! - Sir!

Shut up! - Vayu!

What?

Just... just take me home.

I'm hungry, all right? - Then I'll go myself.

Meera... I'm joking. I'll drop you.

Meera...

Yeah.

Thank you... thank you.

You have a good hand. - Thank you.

Please swipe this.

Don't bother, sir. It's been paid for.

No, no... why did you pay?

I'm an old fan, sir.

You're a legend, and the Mavericks' coach...

It's the least I can do.

Not just the head massage,

pedicure, manicure...

even the girl...

I can get you anything you want, sir.

All you need to do...

Not here.

Come with me.

Nothing much, sir.

Team selection, pitch report,

toss decisions,

that's all... just before the match.

In return, anything you want, you quote the price.

How much? - Now we're talking.

How about 10 million per match?

That's it?

There's a great risk involved in what you want...

Hike the price a bit.

The price can be hiked, sir.

More the information you share, more we pay...

Nice.

I was thinking...

Motherfucker!

If I spot you anywhere near my team...

In fact, let alone spot you,

even if I so much as smell your fucking deo,

then I swear,

I'll unfurl an umbrella up your ass!

Understood?

Take it.

Clean up that broken nose and get the fuck out of here!

That watchman still works here?

I had to tip him to keep shut every time I came to your rotten flat.

If it was rotten, why did you come?

I didn't come for the flat.

Anyway, I...

Fuck.

Yeah?

You still hungry? - No. I'm fine.

Are you sure? I can make my legendary cheese sandwiches.

Please, they are not legendary.

I can make better. In fact, I have made better for you.

You remember that time when we were...

Think about it. There'll be coffee too.

'And this is how the teams stand after match no. 35...'

Hey, you want some ketchup with your sandwich?

No, I'm good. Thanks.

'...of the points table while the Ranchi Rockets have maintained their position at the top...'

What are you watching? - Highlights of today's match.

'Earlier today Ranchi Rockets...' - Still in second place.

I thought the Mavericks' league position didn't matter to Vayu Raghavan.

How did this happen? - Just...

I really enjoyed your Chennai innings by the way.

Thanks.

Your phone... it's your producer.

It's fine... I'm off duty.

Meera...

Vayu, we were...

Look...

We were what we were.

Yeah.

But...

What are we now?

And we have some sensational news coming in regarding Mavericks star Vayu Raghavan.

It appears that a cheerleader of Serbian origin Svetlana Ivanovic

has reportedly told journalists that she is pregnant,

and Vayu Raghavan is the father. She has also been quoted as saying that

so far he has refused to acknowledge the child.

We have more news coming in as we speak...

Are you dating Vayu, ma'am? - Are you with Vayu Raghavan?

We need an answer, please. - Yes,

I'm pregnant with Vayu Raghavan's child.

Ma'am, one more question...
