A wave's crashing in!
- A wave's crashing in! - There are no waves!
Get up or I'll break your head!
Take Appa's example. He begins driving a rickshaw at 6 am.
He toils all day and leaves at 6 every morning.
And what about you?
You're a worthless lazy bum.
At this rate, Dagdu,
you'll be a failure for life.
Dagdu!
Huge waves crashing!
Crashed?
Huge waves crashing?
Why are you bugging me early in the morning?
Oh my! Early morning?
It's half past noon!
12:30
Dagdu, I beg you,
wake up for the sake of your parents and Sai Baba.
Take up any job you get.
Do it for Appa's sake and yourself.
Do you get me?
Manda's got a point.
With froth in the mouth,
it's better to clean up in time
or it'll leave nasty stains.
What's up, Dagdu?
I pooped green. Care to check?
Useless!
My life is a mess.
I better sort it out.
Or soon Appa will throw me out of this house.
I better sleep.
Hello, Manda.
Sis, may I come on?
Get out, useless fellows!
Don't get angry. Have some sweet.
You're giving me sweets!
Crooks with sugar tongue!
It's holy offering not sugar.
It's made with condensed milk.
And here's special sweet for Appa.
Ouch!
Wait a minute. You got me sweet?
So Dagdu messed up yet again.
Just a limits, Manda.
- Dagdu! - Who is it?
Wake ups.
It's 4 pm and you're still asleep!
The problem is that nobody trusts Dagdu.
True.
Sis, even sand yields oil when pressed hard.
Wow! Should you be saying that?
Why are you here?
The results will be out today.
Dear god! I forgot about it.
How much did I score?
Tell me. How much did I score?
My BP's rising.
He makes BP too?
Tell me honestly if he has passed or failed.
- Mande... - Manda.
I was talking to him. Don't interrupt.
Well you see...
your result
Dagdu, this is serious.
Tell him.
Appa will whack your butt anyway.
Should we apply some medicine in advance?
Wait a limits.
Dagdu,
Dagdu...
You have passed!
Really!
With 36% and distrinction.
- Don't! - Bless you, son.
When do we celebrate?
Dagdu has passed.
How on earth did that happen?
I worked really hard, Manda.
For the Chemistry papers, I tore up a boy's Tshirt
and copied the answers.
Malaria wrote all answers for Math
all over his body.
- And Kombdya... - Don't!
He locked up the supervisor in the toilet during the English exams.
My friends worked really hard.
I'm grateful.
C'mon!
Why cry?
What's wrong? Who died?
Appa, nobody died.
My results are out.
Out?
- Appa..... - You failed, right?
- Appa! - You failed, right?
No, Appa. I passed.
I scored 36% with distinctive...
Hope you didn't forge the results again.
Did you?
I swear on god, it's true.
How did you pass?
We leaked 7 papers.
Leaked....
Scoundrels!
Have this sweet.
You're giving me sweet!
- Scoundrels.... - Wait a limits.
Wait a limits.
What's importance here? Dagdu has passed.
Right.
Appa, you owe us a treat. Your son has passed.
Party!
Did you really pass?
Yes.
Play the music loud. Dagdu has passed!

I'm finally free!
I thought I won't even get passing marks.
But I passed.
Nobody believes in me.
But Sai Baba helped me.
Get me bread.
Here's the problem. Who'd want to trust you?
Only someone who cares would trust you.
As of now, you need
a woman who cares about you.
Just like you choked on the bread,
- I'll make sure... - Sit down.
This is the problems.
How can anyone trust you?
Only a person with dysentery can be trusted.
Genuine.
He should be hornest
and ettisex.
Meaning?
He means, only a decent person is worth trusting.
He should act and drink in a civil manner.
Pour some.
Ettisex.
Say it again.
Can you please pour the drops of the rum in my glass of the larger size?
Sexillent.
You make me feel like a ruffian.
Yes.
What?
Fatso, a small glass can't hold a large peg.
Can't help it if I don't understand things.
- You helped me.... - Get me bread.
How many breads will you eat?
You'll get indigestion.
Dagdu, don't lose hope.
Don't lose hope.
A crab never leaves its rock even in the face of a storm.
It doesn't!
A crab doesn't let go
but your tender fish left!
I didn't leave her.
Prajakta left me and bemoaned her for 3 years.
Nothing disinterests me.
You mean nothing interests you.
Got it.
Wait a limits. Prajakta was like the rains.
Rain rain, go away.
She came and left like the rain.
Did we try to stop her like a dam?
- Dids we? - No.
No!
No building a new dam.
We'll find a new dame.
- Give the photo. - No.
- That's the only photo I have.
- Silence. - Give the photo.
Give me the photo.
Child!
Sit down.
If a lone flower fell off a tree,
a bumblebee doesn't bemoan it for 3 years.
It goes looking for a new flower right away
because it knows
it life depends on it.
Dagdu,
look for a new flower.
Right, Malaria?
Get me bread.
Give a whole loaf!
Thrust it on him!
Dagdu, listens.
From now, todays, no fights
and hooliganism. Only decency.
Most importants,
how should you speak in Englands?
Just like Shakaal.
Don't mention him.
It drives me mad.
- I can't stand him. - I'm sorry.
- Tell him. - Son.
Hang me!
You want to teach Shakaal a lesson?
Then become fluent in English and behave like a gentleman.
Yes.
Pay him back in his own coin.
Use a fork to fork him out.
Frame matters, Dagdu.
Chandramukhi.
Frame matters, Dagdu.
Life is meaningless without love.
Positives.
Dagdu!
Chanda.
Here comes the baldie's informer.
What bring you here?
College.
You passed?
Great.
Yes, Chandramukhi.
How do you know my name?
I know it. Chandramukhi Babbanrao Indulkar, CBI.
- Residence number 344526... - Class.
Class.
Bye for now.
Bye.
Chanda.
Where is Prajakta these days?
No idea. We're not in touch.
I'll let her know if we meet.
Now that you're in this college,
Not sure,
Chandramukhi.
Meaning?
He means we're not sure yet.
We'll check the list now.
Dagdu scored 36%
36?
Try your luck... You'll get it.
All the best.
- Bye. - Bye.
Bye.
Feeling shy!
You're forgetting why we're here.
Go check if Dagdu's on the list.
Accelerators! That way.
Fish water....
Move.
Fish water.
Check that list.
Look again.
What's that? H2O?
H2O
Water.
Waters.
Every English word makes an impressions.
Dagdu!
I made it.
Is my number on the list?
No, it isn't.
I tried all the combinations possible.
Dagdu Shantaram Parab, Parab Shantaram Dagdu
Shantaram Dagdu Parab, Parab Dagdu Arab...
Arbi Shantaram Dagad but to no avail.
Your name's not on it.
I told you it won't be easy getting admission.
- Entries close at 84. - 84!
Dagdu, you didn't even score 48!
I scored less
so they won't give me admission!
Am I not worthy of getting an education?
Listen up folks,
listen to me carefully.
What's my fault if I scored less?
It's noteworthy, all great scientists
were poor in academics.
Should they have given up on their dreams?
Who was that apple guy?
Isaac Newton.
Don't abuse.
Newton?
Friends, U turn
U Turn saw the apple falling because he was sitting in a garden.
What would he have seen if he were in college?
He'd just read!
I might be penniless but I have a heart of gold.
And my intelligence is praiseworthy.
Just once chance to dance.
Dance leads to romance.
Romance follows science.
My only mission is admission.
Listen up, hero. This is a college
not a theatre.
What are you looking at? Get back to work.
Back to class.
Want admission in science?
- Yes. - Cough up 15,000.
Listen, speaking less will guarantee your admission.
Understood? Get 15,000 bucks.
15,000!
Hey, who died?
Nobody.
Then why are you up so early?
I'll deliver newspapers again.
When work is god, life is smooth.
Go safe.
All thanks to Sai Baba.
Baba!
Shakaal!
Have you no brains?
I've told you many times
not to bang the latch on the door.
Hey you! I'm talking to you.
Are you deaf?
One whack and you'll hear properly again.
Forget it, sir. He's new.
What new...
He's no newbie.
He's an old-timer.
You're new here.
Offering unsolicited advice!
Stone.
Shaka...
Uncle, I'm not unworthy.
I cleared 12th grade yesterday.
Wow.
I'm sure academicians bemoan your results!
Okay?
How much did you score
in your exams?
Scored 36.
You did? Wow.
Lucky you!
Tell me your score again.
Thirty sex.
Thirty sex!
It's not thirty's sex....
Forget it. Your score befits your height.
Disgusting!
Get lost.
Worms off a garbage pile....
Forget it, sir. He's new.
What new?
I told you, he's an old-timer.
Listen, worms off a garbage pile
can never soar to the skies!
- Enemy! - Take that rotten face away from here.
Don't you dare come here again! Bloody pauper!
"Enemy of humanity"
"Enemy"
Where do I get 15,000 from?
Aquitally.
Even if we borrow from someone,
what's the guarantee he'll study well?
Don't say that, Appa.
He did clear the 12th grade.
You weren't sure of that either.
He was besotted by a girl.
What's the guarantee he won't do it again?
Appa, if mom were alive,
she'd have H2O in her eyes.
She'd have blessed me.
No H2O. It spoils the eyes.
It should only be used to clean the bathroom.
No, Appa, H2O means water not acid.
I know that. Don't teach me...
Eyes burn!
Yes.
Don't teach me.
Manda,
these are your mom's bangles.
I kept these for Manda's wedding.
Your sister's crazy like you.
She says she'll marry once you become successful.
Why keep these bangles in the cupboard?
Here, sell these and get admission.
No, Appa. Those are mom's bangles.
Take these. Study well and be successful.
Study really well.
But don't take too long.
Laugh again and I'll break your teeth.
Behave well.
- Once you get bored of that... - Be decent.
Decent.
If you get bored of that...
Come here.
- Me? - Yes, come here.
Hello.
Name.
Smarty pants,
you talk too much.
Dagdu.
Dagdu!
Dagdu.
Okay, Mr Dagad.
Act like a monkey.
Go on. Set him right.
- Hold this. - Walk like a monkey.
Good.
Scratch!
Hey!
Tease new joinees and I'll break your face.
Wait a limits! Where are you from?
Listen up everyone,
I'm Palvi Dinkar Patil.
I don't wilt but hit back.
I don't mess with people
but don't spare troublemakers either.
Get going.
Excuse me,
- Palvi. - Yes.
Thank you very much.
Too good.
This is my friends.
- This is Kombda, the chickens. - Ajay.
This is Malaria, the illness.
And this is Bal Bharti, the big book stores.
Mother goddess!
You have weird friends.
Yes.
And you! Can't you speak Marathi?
Why speak in English?
Be who you are. Don't put up an act.
Understood?
Amazing! I thought you alone were a goon.
Who's that woman who left us baffled?
She's toos much.
Just like cold drinks.
The beverage of our college.
Dagdu, you know her name.
But how will she know your name, child?
Hi.
I myself Dagdu Shantaram Parab from Kajupada.
Who was that? You!
Dagdu!
Did your mom choose that name?
I don't have a mother.
I born, mom die.
No mom?
Me neither.
- Do you have a father? - Yes.
I do.
Good.
You should have a father.
Dads are great just like mine.
But I can't speak in English like you.
But you should.
You should speak in English.
Friends?
Friend.
See, do one thing.
Take English lessons.
That will up your game.
- Is that so? - Indeed.
I sit my seat?
Thanksyous.
Brother, forgive me.
Brother!
Being a don is terrible.
I'm not made for it.
I choose humanity.
Look how hot it is.
So, I'm keeping you cool.
While we're braving this surging heat
I'm keeping every part of your body
cool, right?
Do I have dubious intentions?
No!
You didn't pay me protection money for a year.
From calls to messages, I made requests too
but you just kept making excuses
for months on end.
Now you're done for.
Now I have no....
Now I have no...
I've no choice but to shoot you.
It's simple. Make mistakes and invite trouble.
- Brother... - Brother!
It's Pavli.
Sada, I've told you many times,
it's not Pavli but Palvi.
Palvi which means
a sapling growing new leaves...
I mean, the tree growing... Anyway, go.
Gotya, it's Diwali.
Give him a nice bath
so he'll never get up again.
Brother...
Need help?
No news of dad, right?
Great going, brothers. Thankyous.
Look at her, brothers.
I never imagined my little girl will go to college and be gentle pants.
Ever dreamed of it?
Look at her.
Tell me, how was your first day of college?
Hope nobody messed with you.
C'mon, dad!
Who'd dare to mess with DP aka Dinkar Patil's girl?
In fact, I thrashed a few!
- On the first day? - Yes.
But one gentleman bugged me.
Who did?
I mean, he spoke to me.
Be specific. I got worried.
He spoke.
He said, to be a gentleman,
we need to bribe in English.
- What? - We must speak English.
- What? - Learn it.
- What? - We need to take English lessons.
What?
Find the best private English classes around.
- Pakya... - Yes?
Beckon D'mello
and tell him we need English lessons.
If he doesn't heed you, shoot him.
Then inform his family about his demise.
I know a class better than D'mello's.
But the teacher is very strict.
Doesn't matter. We have no ill intention.
We'll appraoch him for my daughter's sake
- ...and bequest him... - Request?
Request?
Request...
Never mind, bequest is fine.
Yes.
What I mean is we'll keep cool and deal with him.
Palvi,
want some ice candy?
We have plenty of ice.
- Really? - Yes.
- Where? - I'll show you.
Sultan, get the car.
100/100
99/100
98/100
Does he teach or leak papers?
What?
I'll be back.
- Don't go too far. - Okay.
Wait for me.
Put that in.
First day of college. How was it?
Good.
Madhavrao Lele!
I'll ask you a simple question.
That will tell me
who studied during the holidays
and who wasted time.
Please tell me he doesn't teach Hindi.
- No. - Good.
So, my question is
what fuel do rockets use to fly to the moon?
Fools, what fuel is needed
for a rocket to fly?
You're all dumb.
May I?
Who are you?
I want to join your class. May I answer?
Look at her.
Such intelligence!
Experience tells me,
girls are smarter than boys.
Go on, child.
Liquor.
Only the best.
Local booze takes people to the cloud-cuckoo land.
Right?
I guess you're at the wrong address.
This is English class for students
from the science stream
not a liquor store.
"Enemy"
Didn't you read the board before climbing up here?
It says, only the deserving are welcome.
Hey!
I have no scrap to discard. Leave.
Scrap?
I can shoot you right away.
But you see I've oiled my hair
so I'm keeping cool.
You too should...
Make mistakes and invite trouble.
I'm sure you donned rooster like spikes in your heyday
like famous actors.
Well I ...
But a rooster will either fly away
or end up on your plate.
You're scaring my students.
Lele,
nobody dares to question Dinkar Patil's standing.
Din...
Dad, you said you won't aim a rod at him.
Rod? Such language...
What language?
If she shoots, you'll die
with smashed vocal cord.
Dad, put that away.
You see, for the sake of my daughter's future
I came here having no...
What?
Having no...
You mean you had no choice.
What?
You had no choice.
I had no...
- I had... - Forget it.
I said it on your behalf.
I'm here for my daughter's sake.
I don't want her to be a gangster like me.
She should be decent, gentlepant.
She studied and passed.
She got into the college without any influence.
Somebody advised her to take English lessons.
So, she came to you.
And you admonished her.
You...
You're dead.
Dead.
Let's go, Palvi.
Come.
Only the one who cleanses the mind with worthy thoughts
and transforms lives is a deserving guru.
Wow.
The likes of you are scoundrels.
Let's go, Palvi.
We don't....
Come.
Stop.
Send her from tomorrow.
But no more hooliganism.
You have to study seriously.
Got it, bro.
Say I understand.
What matters the most is language.
That should be clean.
You need help with Hindi though.
It's our national language after all.
See you.
Okay.
Come.
Thanksyous.
Come.
Dagdu!
I did it, Dagdu.
Bro, I'm taking English lessons.
The teacher's a bit crazy
but who cares!
Dagdu, this is all thanks to you.
I followed your tip and bumped him off!
You were right.
Languages should be learnt.
Keep the door to the mind open and the light of knowledge
will brighten up your life.
Bro,
you're philosophical.
Doors of the mind and ...
- Knowledge... - Yes, light...
Speak informal like me.
Look, be who you are.
Speak clearly without hesitation. Understood?
Got it.
- Sure? - Yes.
I'm right here.
Good morning, madam.
Good morning. Sit down.
Thank you, teacher.
So today we're going to learn about an atom.
So tell me, does an atom have a colour?
Anyone?
Yes, Dagdu.
Be who you are. Speak clearly.
Yes, madam. Atom has colour.
Some are fair
some are black.
Some are dusky.
But colour not matter.
One thing is true.
Atom is dangerous.
Atom came, life's over.
Silence.
I said silence.
Dagdu, get out of my class right now.
Why, madam?
Get out.
Did I say something wrong?
Tell me if I did.
I said get out.
Madam, I swear I didn't misbehave.
Get out.
First embrace.
Prajakta never hugged you
but Palvi did.
Bro, she's too good.
Others are no good.
Lass, Missy...
She's marriage material.
She's like a coconut.
Hard on the outside but tender inside.
There you go again!
Wait a limits.
What's going on?
Dagdu, look.
Behind every suchesful man, there is womans.
It's tie day/sari day tomorrow. Propose to her tomorrow.
Shut up! She just hugged me.
How can I just propose her tomorrow?
Have you lost it?
Look,
the paltry amount I earn bu delivering newspapers
aren't enough.
So, I'll take up a part time job in Bhiku's garage
to make money.
I better go.
I've to be there on time.
He transformed from angry young man to a domesticated one!
Are you Dagdu Parab?
No, I'm Rocky.
I thought so.
Sorry.
Appa, it's me, Dagdu.
Don't drink so much. You stink.
What are you doing? Mending or stealing?
What do you know about vehicles?
I'm learning.
I do as I'm told.
Appa,
I've decided,
I'll be successful.
I'll study a lot
and scale great heights.
Lord Ravalnath,
I'm day dreaming again!
I'm high.
Appa!
I'm not a lost cause.
Dagdu, we're simple people who don't
let even a morsel go waste.
We let nothing go waste.
You're my son.
How can I let you be a lost cause?
No.
Appa,
you approve my behaviour, right?
Why use such terms?
No, don't take it otherwise.
I mean to ask if I'm doing the right thing.
We should do our bidding.
Then things fall into place.
Right?
See you.
Cheers.
Appa.
Be careful.
Chanda...
I've been meaning to tell you something since three years.
Tell me.
Same pinch.
You look slimmer.
Oh c'mon!
I checked yesterday. I've gained 6 kgs!
6?
Doesn't seem so.
You were observant enough to notice I lose weight.
- Yes.. - No I mean....
I mean...
Chanda.
Nothing.
Don't say Chanda.
Say Chandramukhi.
I like that.
Chandramukhi.
No...
- Bye. - Bye.
Very goods.
Looking nice.
Charlie!
Charlie.
Listen up,
pauper in borrowed clothes.
Charlie.
Hey!
What will I break if you mess with my friend?
Balls.
Break what?
Balls.
Right.
Come, Dagdu.
I made a tie for Dagdu from dad's garment.
If my shirts or pants touches Palva even for a limits,
I'll consider myself blessed.
When a man acts with patience,
he attracts good things in life.
Palvi!
Feels good here, right?
There's no crowd here.
What happened?
Nothing.
Did you like the spot?
I'll tell you something.
I love this cold drink.
I gulp many at weddings!
My dad keeps some aside for me when he orders these for parties.
I too love it
but I can't afford it.
See Palvi,
when circumstances aren't favourable,
pride and arrogance
shatter.
You too need to take English lessons.
I'll speak to my teacher.
Dagdu,
I love this silence.
Feels great.
It's hardly ever silent at my place.
Fights and chaos every single day.
Hurling abusing and clashes.
I always yearned for a friend.
A true friend.
Close friend. Gentlemans.
Like Aamir Khan from 'Qayamat se Qayamat Tak'.
Not like this.
Good looks are not mandatory
but a good heart is.
Like yours.
- Palvi. - Yes.
You're a ruffian on the outside and silly from the inside.
I mean, I too wanted a friend a bold and loyal friend.
Usually girls forsake friendship
fearing their families
and leave friends in a lurch.
Like you?
Yes, I mean
I was in love once.
Praju.
She got scared
and left the city.
I waited like crazy for 4 years.
Dagdu,
a boy who waits for a girl for 4 years
and misses her is a real gentleman.
A real gentleman never hides anything.
That's the kind of friend I wanted.
True, sorted,
cool
like a cold drink.
Here.
Go away!
"Rewind the heart's cassette"
"Eyes filled with colourful dreams"
"Rewind the heart's cassette"
"Eyes filled with colourful dreams"
"You leave my cheeks cold"
"You're like a cold drink"
"Cold"
"You're like a cold drink"
"There's a variety of flavours available"
"Chilled droplets make summers cool"
"Sizzling with fizz and sweetness"
"Where do you get all that from?"
"You're like a cold drink"
"Wolf it down or savour it leisurely"
"It leaves its colour on the lips"
"Oh my!"
"The bottle of my heart is empty"
"You devour it endlessly"
"Oh my!"
"You're like a cold drink"
"Cold"
"You're like a cold drink"
I care about you.
Look at the weather today. It's cool all around.
We're trying keep you warm in here.
Do I have dubious intentions?
- No. - Exactly.
With a heavy heart,
- I'll give you a spicy treat. - No... No...
Spices at your service.
That stings, bro!
I'll pay you.
I thought it's my room.
Did you see what I did?
She swayed her way in instead of taking strides.
- Dear god! - Keep an eye on her.
So our today's topic is love.
Science is not the disciple of reason
but also one of romance and passion.
Sumit, do you understand?
Yes, sir.
Sir, if we look at things
with adoration and scrutiny,
it could lead to the birth of science.
Dear science, wake up.
Palvi!
Palvi.
- Dad! - It's me not your dad.
Sir,
- I've something to say. - Go on.
Hear me out.
Good.
I have a friend. He's poor
but smart. He's nice and hard working.
He's too lean but strong.
He's penniless but intelligent.
Do you want me to adopt him?
Can I bring him to this class?
Both of us will learn.
The world will mock us if we don't.
Us?
Don't worry about the fees.
Don't worry, dad will pay in cash.
Brand new notes.
Please, sir. Can he get admission?
Admissions are not cake walk.
Look, I will put him to test.
Yes.
His admission depends on my approval.
Will do.
Sir,
thanks yous.
Hey, that rose cost 5 rupees.
No.
Why not?
Don't try your luck here.
Why would I try my luck with you?
Just look at you!
What?
If you say anything more, I'll whack you.
Look, I'm the principal of this university.
Who?
- Satam? - Yes, sir.
Understood now?
Understood?
Really?
I never saw you preaching.
You should say teaching. Teaching!
"Enemy"
What's in your mouth?
What's that?
What's in your mouth?
- Chumbum. - What?
Chumbum.
Chumbum?
It's not chumbum.
You're mispronouncing it.
It means... Never mind, you won't get it.
What's that? Marathi game?
Marathi literature.
It's literature.
It's not Marati but Marathi
literature.
Softer! This is a library.
I know that. Kids these days speak unpolished Marathi.
What are you on about?
Marathi is my mother tongue.
Now I'm learning English, foreign language.
First learn local languages well then aim for foreign languages.
As for your foreign language,
I'd like to know which great master is teaching you English.
I'm trying my luck with that.
Great choice of words!
Palvi?
Here!
Here's my guru of foreign language.
He barely passed....
Come.
The one who scores 100/100 will get
a dessert from me.
- May I? - Sir.
Sorry.
I told you about my friend. He's here.
Come in.
Wel...
That's my friend Dagdu.
Come.
Palvi,
is that your friend?
What do you know about pigs?
I'll enlighten you.
A pig's mother
eats her young ones when hungry.
She tramples her young ones.
But one of the piglets gets lucky.
It grows up
and a pretty butterfly casually lands on it.
After a while it flies away
but the pig continues living in filth.
Sir,
if a person tries to change, people around him demoralise him
he feels like going back to the filth.
Thus, he goes back to the garbage dump.
My friend Dagdu wants to change.
He wants to clean up.
You should give him a chance.
My life changed for the worst.
I was left bloody nosed dealing with a stone.
I won't face the same fate yet again.
Get out.
To hell with your class. I quit.
Mess with me...
Palvi...
You both get out from here. Get out.
Come, Dagdu.
Bro is done for!
When will you say 143?
What?
Forgot?
I love you.
Believe me, people go blind in love.
All you do is think of her.
She's on your mind day and night.
Chandramukhi.
She's constantly on your mind
because our hearts render us helpless.
Some follow their hearts while the likes of you are...
Dumb.
Fatso, your love is justified but others' is not!
Don't talk too much.
You're putting him down!
What do you mean? Shouldn't I guide him?
- Doesn't matter... - Wait a limits.
Wait a limits.
Dagdu, do you really like her?
Really?
More than Prajakta?
Not like Prajakta
but I like Palvi's company.
Sai Baba, I'm scared. Give me the courage to speak.
I've developed feelings for her.
But I'll fall flat on my face if she rejects me.
Here you are!
That's obvious. You only love your parents and Sai Baba.
Nobody else matters.
Baba, give him some good sense.
Napolean....
Read it carefully.
Neig...
Listen up!
Relax and stay calm.
You.
She's talking to you.
I mean you, DSP.
We have 5 minutes before the lecture starts.
Listen to me.
I toured the city with you.
The water tank, the pipeline,
the terrace near the cooler and the camera.
I followed you everywhere.
But you! Cat got your tongue!
Enough!
I propose to you right here before everyone.
Dagdu, I like you.
To hell with the world, I...
I love you.
Tell me, do you love me?
I...
Can I tell you at the prayer meeting this evening?
"Move aside, make way"
"Here comes my Mercedes"
"I donned a yellow and black sari"
"and your eyes lit up"
"I donned a yellow and black sari"
"and your eyes lit up"
"I'll follow anywhere you like"
"Get in and I'll start the meter"
"The horn of this rickshaw"
"The horn of this rickshaw roars like a tiger"
"Boys go bonkers on seeing me"
"From willy to women, all find me endearing"
"I'm hard to miss and find my way through"
"While others yearn, I lie in wait"
"My gait and style drive people crazy"
"The horn of this rickshaw roars like a tiger"
"The horn of this rickshaw"
"roars like a tiger"
"He was sentimental in love and lacked courage"
"I made my move and entered his life"
"All actors vie for my love"
"I forsook the world to be with you"
"Fear nobody and enjoy life in full gear"
"The horn of this rickshaw"
"roars like a tiger"
"The horn of this rickshaw roars like a tiger"
Palvi, my child,
- Palvi, my child... - Yes.
- Palvi... - Go on.
- Palvi, my child... - What's the matter with you?
You haven't said a word besides my name!
I care a damn...
Yes, tell me.
Let me speak.
I want you answer
me honestly.
Wait.
- Got Geeta? - Yes. - Get it.
Geeta?
Place your hand on the Geeta and answer.
Or you'll lie and fool me.
Come, Geeta.
- Stand here. - Place your hand on her.
This Geeta?
Dad, do I ever lie to you?
Then why do this?
Geeta, go play.
Go.
What?
Am I hosting a party here? Leave.
What's up with you?
Look,
I sense some problems with you off late.
- Problem? - Yes.
You see, instead of striding your way home,
you come home swaying.
Like this.
You speak to your dad softly and not brazenly.
I mean, how did a brazen girl turn soft spoken?
I mean to say are you...
What?
I mean, are you....
I'll get to the point.
Do you like someone?
I'm not ready yet.
Go easy!
Are you in love?
No, I was told you're keeping some boy company.
You attend prayer meets with him.
You enjoy there and lie to your dad.
- I mean.... - Dagdu.
His name.
DSP
- He's a DSP! - No.
- Does he like DSP? - Let me explain.
His name is Dagdu Shantaram Parab, DSP.
Dagdu?
Who's that mutt you've taken a liking to?
I'll tell you. Sit.
Dad, he might come across as a goon
but he's not. Dagdu's a simple guy.
Decent and honest. He's well bread.
- What? - Well-bred.
Bred?
Well-bread?
You mean he's something I can barely pronounce?
Yes.
He doesn't even look around while walking.
- Really? - If anyone messes with him,
he walks by instead of getting into fights.
- Really? - He doesn't raise his voice.
He speaks softly
like you.
Really?
Dad, Dagdu
is my best friend.
He only eats scrambled eggs. Full veg.
Baba, you're great.
"Sai Baba"
We got what we wanted.
Listen up, boys!
They were eavesdropping!
I'll tell you openly.
My girl has found a decent vegetarian boy.
No more non-veg.
We'll be vegetarians now onwards.
No more liver but plantain desserts.
No more chicken fry but 'puranpoli'.
Dad, listen.
Meet Dagdu once.
Goes without saying. You like him so it's decided.
I'll meet him in person.
Thank you.
Is Dagdu's dad home?
Coming. Wonder who's come when there's no electricity!
Dagdu's dad?
Yes. Who are you?
I'm a don.
Will you please call him?
Dad!
Appa, get up.
What happened?
A don is here for you.
Don?
- Hurry up, Appa. - Yes.
- Dagdu's dad? - Yes.
We need to talk. May I come in?
Please come in.
Why are you coming in?
Just look at the size of the room! You won't fit in. Wait here.
What...
It's uncomfortable.
Oh dear!
That pricked.
This too.
Oh I forgot about this.
A bird. This one.
What's wrong?
These things are heavy so I got them out
- Water... - Keep it.
- Shantaram Parab? - Yes.
Dinkar Patil. I stay at Versova creek.
I'm a don.
I've committed 4 murders and 6 half murders.
I have a daughter named Palvi.
So?
You have a son named Dagdu.
So?
Don't you get it?
I have a daughter and she likes your son
Have water.
You'll feel better.
Better?
Pat him.
I'm here with a marriage proposal for your son. Please don't refuse.
- I'll tell you something honestly. - Please do.
Beat me if it irks you.
I haven't touched these, right? I won't.
He was in love with a girl before meetin your daughter.
Really?
He ruined his life.
That means he's a decent guy.
I had 36 girlfriends before I married.
He was serious about one girl so he's genuine.
Just meet my daughter once. She's precious.
Palvi, come in.
It's okay. I've my shoes on.
Here.
Look here too.
Give me your blessings, buddy.
Buddy?
She speaks ruffian like me.
But she'll change once she marries him..
- May I ask you something? - Go on.
- Don't mind. - I won't.
Does she really like Dagdu or you got the wrong address?
No, she really likes him.
I give you my word. We'll get them married once they finish college.
No!
Don't worry about the expenses. Leave that to me.
What's mine is yours.
Tell me if you face any problem.
I'll solve it no matter what.
Let me know if you need any weapon
- or a woman. - Dad!
What dad? It's better to get things cleared.
How will I arrange for a woman at the last minute?
No, your daughter's nice.
We don't want dowry.
Thank you.
Who are you? Dagdu's second mummy?
Sorry, I spoke of a woman.
I mean that for him not you.
You ignore it.
She's my daughter.
- Dagdu's elder sister. - Really?
Sorry, baby. I made you a mom!
Sorry.
It's decided, we'll get them married.
Palvi, happy now? Let's go.
Please install a fan here.
- Let's go. - Wait.
What?
You left this behind.
Yes, that's all mine.
You're here.
I need to go bare to put these back...
Leave.
Look, we're going to be relatives soon.
Let me know if you need anything at all.
I'll arrange for it.
Don't hesitate at all.
That's ours.
Okay.
Let's go.
Hello, Appa.
Yes.
Hello, Appa.
- All well? - Yes.
Mr Gupta, I'll clear the debt in 2 days.
2 days? Take all the time you want, Appa
Appa!
Appa, you'll go first for Dinkar's sake.
Sit properly.
You should be first.
- What's this... - Don't refuse.
No.
Come, Appa.
- Thank you. - Get in.
Come.
- Bye, Appa. - Yes.
- Manda. - Coming.
Keep this money.
Dagdu, your changed behaviour brought you good luck.
Be like this. Don't go haywire.
- Appa. - Yes.
Dagdu bought back mom's bangles.
So?
This is our regular spot.
- Is it? - Yes.
This pipeline is a part of many people lives.
- Nice. - You bet.
The pipeline holds water within
while people like you live above it.
Nice and innocent people.
These bangles and ornaments....
They seem loveable since I met you.
- English! - I learnt it today.
It's stuck in my head.
Palvi,
I never imagined
I'd meet a bold and fearless girl like you.
One thing is certain, Dagdu.
Be who you are.
Be nice and simple and I'll smile with a dimple.
"I'm surrounded with people"
"Yet you're the one I like"
"You make the world brighter"
"There's no cheer without you around"
"Your irritability is loveable"
"Your daring ways are loveable"
"Your monologues are loveable"
"Your carefree attitude is loveable"
"Glance back at me"
"Stay close to me"
"Glance back at me"
"Stay close to me"
"Loveable"
"Your face dwells in these eyes"
"I see you everyday yet I feel captivated"
"I spent all night thinking of you"
"I can't help nurture dreams of love"
"The heart soars to the skies"
"Think why that is so"
"I say nothing and quit"
"I'm ready whenever you are"
"Your genuine ways are loveable"
"Our secret meetings are loveable"
"Glance back at me"
"Stay close to me"
"Glance back at me"
"Stay close to me"
"Loveable"
Is the nail paint I ordered here?
- Is dad home? - Yes.
Dad!
How are you, my child?
I'm too good.
- Nice. - May nobody cast an evil eye.
Evil?
Forget that.
Please repeat what you just said in English.
- English? - Yes.
All is jingle bell jingle bell in life.
But somebody's eye
will hit eye will get eyes problem.
My dear, I know I'm bad at English.
But I'm no fool.
Eyes will hit my eye to eye?
Does that baldie teach English or eye...
Doesn't he teach well?
I don't attend his classes.
I see. What?
You don't attend the class?
Why do you bunk his classes?
I'll explain.
Sit down, we'll talk.
What happened is
I took Dagdu to the class but the sir humiliated him.
Really?
He didn't even talk to him.
- Really? - So I lost it.
I gave him a piece of my mind and quit.
- Quit? - Yes.
Quit the class?
So, you won't learn English now?
That's not done.
Dad,
speak to that sir.
Okay.
I'll speak to him in person.
Thanks yous.
"When the world showers love"
Who could it be at this hour? This is not the right time.
Who is it?
Hello, come in.
Hope I'm not disturbing.
No, why?
I can smell rum.
Were you drinking?
No! I rub it on my knees to alleviate pain. Come in.
Oh you use it as medicine.
Should you visit someone at this hour?
I mean, I'm sure it's urgent.
Yes.
I...
Have you worn anything underneath?
Of course.
Did you think I had nothing on?
Seemed so.
Please sit.
What?
Nothing much. The bird pricked.
You have a bird in your pocket?
Huh?
Why torture poor animals?
Not an animal....
This silences everyone.
This bird.
Please sit.
Tell me.
That's my medicine.
Palvi brought a boy...
Dagdu.
Teach him too.
My daughter wants Dagdu to learn English
I can't go against her wish.
I'm a father after all.
To be honest, that guy's decent.
I think he's decent.
The guy you assume to be decent and well-bred
is really a rogue.
He's feigning decency.
He has hoodwinked you.
You better see things as they are.
He hoodwinked me too a few years ago.
- Really? - Yes.
I'll explain with evidence.
Thus, you'll have no doubts.
Look.
That's my daughter Prajakta.
She's as delicate as a flower.
That Dagdu lured her
and won her heart.
Which father would want his daughter to marry a guy
who lacks decency, culture,
prestige, honour and education?
That oaf said he loved my daughter.
Dinkar, that wasn't love.
He sweet-talked and took her for a ride.
He ruined my life.
My relatives forsook me.
My only son
followed Dagdu's footsteps and fell for some girl.
He went to America for good.
My daughter got distant.
She stays elsewhere since 4 years.
My wife died because of the trauma.
Dinkar, I have two children
yet I'm all alone.
To get rid of the loneliness, I teach kids of Prajakta's age.
Feels good to have kids around.
Prajakta wants to come over but I refuse
I want her to be happy where she is.
I survived one blow.
I can't survive another.
I visit her once every couple of months.
This is a friendly advice.
Your daughter may be a ruffian
but she's nice. She's kind.
She's innocent.
Don't let Dagdu ruin her life, Dinkar.
I say this as your well wisher.
The rest is up to you.
You're a well....
- Well... - Well-wisher.
Exactly.
I can't speak fluently.
But I understood everything
you said.
Make mistakes and invite trouble.
Dagdu, leave.
Where.
- Come quick. - Wait a minute.
- You're Vallabh's friend, right? - Yes.
Like this...
My life would be different if I were educated.
You must study. Get going.
Stop this.
Stop it.
What happened?
Acting smart?
Forgive me.
- You're acting smart? - No.
Listen to me brother...
Dagdu, when in Rome do as the Romans.
Be a goon here not a decent guy.
You're a hero, is it?
I swear on my parents and Sai Baba,
I didn't want to get into a fight.
But you asked for this.
I'll set you right.
You...
Beep
Believe me, dad, Dagdu is not like that.
Palvi, sit down.
I've never restricted you
or asked you for anything.
I never forced you to do anything.
But not this time.
You won't meet him, come what may.
This is an order not a request.
- Given a chance, people change... - We gave him a chance.
We did, right?
I can't stand him anymore.
He was a goon, a ruffian.
He feigned being a decent guy.
Believe me, he wouldn't dare deceive me.
Palvi, you know hooliganism is hard to quit.
It gets you everything you want
except three things.
Peaceful sleep,
respect in high class society
and an honest living.
When you told me about Dagdu,
I was pleased.
But he too turned out to be a crook!
No, Palvi. You can't have a goon for your life partner.
You deserve a decent, honest, simple man.
One who is genuine and honest
and doesn't pretend.
I'm telling you,
that's how Dagdu is and I want him!
Palvi!
Leave...
- Listen... - Leave me.
Leave me.
My life went waste.
I don't want you to face the same fate.
You won't meet that guy again.
This is an order not a request.
Feels good, right?
Our hands were put to good use after many days.
But Palvi!
She won't like this ruffian Dagdu.
If she learns of this, disaster will befall.
Most importantly, she'll lose faith in me.
For all you know, she'll appreciate your true self.
Yes.
How long will you pretend, Dagdu?
Expect disaster the day you get caught.
Heed me, always be honest
in your dealings.
Egjactly.
You're right.
I found it stifling.
I buttoned up my collar and people dominated me.
Not anymore. Mess with me and I'll thrash you.
You called me Charlie, right?
Yes.
Pose as a snake.
Snake.
Do it.
Snake.
Like this.
Properly.
Be a snake.
Do it.
So this is the real Dagdu.
Palvi...
If this is the real you, who was the one I met?
- I was to tell... - I liked your simpleness, Dagdu.
I never wanted a goon.
I changed for you but you didn't.
Everything about you was a lie.
You took me for a ride. It was just time pass for you.
Time pass?
- You were time pass for me? - Yes.
You lied about being a gentleman.
Which is the real you?
The one I see now or the one I knew?
Look, I...
I'm not like you. I don't pretend.
I want to know who you really are.
Tell me, who are you?
This is how I am.
A goon, ruffian, hooligan. Call me anything you like.
- That doesn't make me worthless... - But you fool people.
First you fooled Prajakta
then me!
I didn't fool anybody, understand?
Bear that in mind.
Break this friendship if you will.
This is how I am and always will be.
Manda was right.
Somebody cast an evil eye.
"Colours faded"
"leaving things threadbare"
"My restless heart"
"suffers endlessly"
"Colours faded"
"leaving things threadbare"
"My restless heart"

"Dear god!"
"Please mend my fate, god"
"Rid me of all suffering, god"
"Please mend my fate, god"
"Rid me of all suffering, god"
"Dear god!"
"God, rid me of all bearing ill will"

"Please mend my fate, god"
"Rid me of all suffering, god"
"Please mend my fate, god"
"Rid me of all suffering, god"
"Dear god!"
When will you pay up?
When will you?
When?
When...
Why didn't you get the stuff from the docks?
How did the officials raid the place?
Who informed them?
You dare to trick me?
I suffered a loss of 7 million because of you.
Who will make up for it?
Now I'll destroy your nether regions.
I'll come tomorrow.
Hey, come in.
Come.
You're fortunate. We'll take a short break...
Inter....
Interval... I said it!
You're lucky.
You brought me luck. Have a seat.
Palvi.
- Get water. - No thanks.
- Fine, get beer. - Oh no.
- You don't drink, is it? - Sorry, go.
Not like that. I drank on my way here.
Go away.
I'd love to.
What are you saying?
Drinks help me speak up.
- I beg you. - Don't!
What are you doing?
I'm scared.
Scared? Of who?
This.
What did you do?
What did you do to Appa?
No, bro. I didn't mean him.
Not him? Then what are you scared of?
I fear lest I meet the same fate as him.
Sit down.
Tell me, are we enemies?
Then why would I beat you?
I mean Dagdu, not me.
Please don't do this to Dagdu.
Let us both forget about Dagdu and Palvi.
Look, I can kill your son in a jiffy.
But I didn't for your sake.
He lied to my daughter.
I can't forget that.
Bro...
Eat.
Take it back.
I'm not hungry.
- Eat or... - Let it be, Manda.
Let him starve a while.
I'm waiting for him to feel the fire in his belly.
Do you recall the time when your mom died?
I'm sure you don't.
I used to work 20 hours a day at that age.
I never stayed home.
And what are you doing now at your age?
Nothing.
How long will you stay home?
What?
Dagdu!
- What is Appa saying? Are you deaf? - Leave it, Manda.
He can fight a group of men at once. One whack won't make a difference.
Dagdu, you have no responsibilities yet.
Once I die, you'll know
how it feels to shoulder responsibilities.
Then love, friendship, loitering, money,
alcohol, time pass mean nothing.
Everything takes a back seat.
L for loser after all.
Can you put that on a rickshaw too?
That's bound to happen when you lose in life.
From achiever to loser.
He had dreams of sophistication
and ended up doing this.
Here he is.
He looks sad.
He has lost weight.
Dagdu.
Hey...
Dagdus!
Bro!
Stop.
Dagdu!
Da...
Dagdu's rotten fate!
Can't be condoned.
What?
It's a legit word.
Condoned.
It means pass over.
Want a ride?
To the moon, is it?
He's first in line.
He gets the first chance.
Right.
I'm off to Kokan to meet my daughter.
I can't break rules already!
Let's go to the station...
Hello, Dagdu.
So you quit studies?
You'd made tall claims
about becoming successful.
What happened to that attitude?
You proved me right.
A pig remains in filth....
Don't talk too much.
Do you feed me or are you my boss?
Stay in your limits and speak respectfully.
Given our past, I respect you but that doesn't mean you can take me for granted.
I am a rickshaw driver.
Understood? I am a rickshaw driver.
It's a dignified job, understood?
Don't judge my status based on that.
I don't live off your money.
I earn my living respectfully.
Understood? Now get in.
That's meter down.
Shakaal.
Hey Dagdu, you're driving a rickshaw?
No, I attend college in the morning and ferry passengers later.
I'm impressed.
You're studying and working alongside. Great.
Good going.
Dagdu.
Palvi!
I thought we must speak.
Are you angry about what I said that day?
No, I'm not angry.
- But I did feel bad.. - What's done is done.
You're like me even if you're no gentleman.
But I'll change, Palvi.
I'll show you.
Just don't leave me.
When people leave, I get shattered.
I know that.
That's why I'm here.
But why must you change?
People don't change willingly
circumstances compel us.
I learnt of your plight so I came here.
Did I quit college? No.
You shouldn't either.
Study.
Work hard.
Palvi,
I will study.
I'll work real hard.
But, Palvi,
- don't leave me. - I'm right here.
I'll wait right here for you.
I should, right?
Meaning?
We'll decide that later.
Later.
I'll know if you become a gentleman
or you don't.
Until then, no point calling off our friendship.
Right?
It's not right.
Friends?
Palvi, what we shared was love
- or time... - Friends.
Dagdu.
The heart galloped, my mind went reeling giving rise to emotions.
They led me here
to you.
