[siren wailing]
How are you, Nafisa?
Bye.
Will this be enough?
How much did Tukaram ask for?
20 to 25 lakh rupees.
So then? How will you arrange 25 lakhs?
Let's go.
Mr. Abdul, you're meeting a Cabinet Minister...
...not the Prime Minister.
If this plan works out, then in a few years...
... I might meet the Prime Minister too.
Really? The Prime Minister?
I may be smaller than you in height and status...
...but my ambitions are big.
Sir, there's a very honest man...
...who has been toiling for years now.
But he hasn't received a promotion for over a decade.
It's really unfair to him, sir.
What is his name?
Madhusudan Mishra.
He's the Deputy Manager at the Nashik press.
I've known him for years.
He's a very hardworking man.
But he's so honest that he hesitates...
...to even ask for a promotion.
Is Nashik...
...part of your constituency?
No, sir. I'm from Dhule.
Tukaram, how's the milk in Dhule?
Milk... Sir...
I mean, cows, buffaloes, milk, yogurt...
It's good, sir.
Butter must be cheap in Dhule, right?
So stop buttering me...
...and stop making irrelevant offerings.
Sir... you are a senior minister... I thought..
Tukaram, why are you involving me in this?
Huh?
It's not even my ministry.
So, just cut this b******t...
...and stop wasting my time.
F**k off!
[Title Montage]
Sir. Hello, sir.
I'm Abdul.
So?
Well, I came to give you this.
Are you a postman?
No, sir.
I think the courier...
...accidentally delivered your package to me.
- Are you Madhusudan Mishra? - Yes, that's me.
Then this belongs to you.
[ticking sound]
Open it.
- Sir? - Open it.
How can I open it? It's your parcel?
Why not? You've brought it, haven't you?
- So, go ahead and open it. - Yes, but...
It's your parcel, sir. How can I?
Mister, how would I know what you've brought in it?
What if it's a time bomb?
[chuckles]
Sir, why would I give you a time bomb?
How would I know your mind? Do I know you?
This is absurd, sir, I am just trying to help you.
Fine, let's do one thing. Let's open it together. Okay?
- Open it. - Okay, sir.
Here.
What is it? Take it out.
Open it.
- Sir, we can together... - No, you open it.
- Let's open it together. - I'm right here. Open it.
This...
I heard a ticking sound, so I thought it could be a time bomb.
No problem, Sir. It's natural.
Thank you very much.
What did you say your name was?
[Singing song]
[whistling the song]
JK, he's high without even drinking.
[whistling the song]
What did you do?
Nothing.
I gave Madhusudan a watch, maybe he'll give me some time now.
Listen, I've known him for ten years.
He has no weakness.
- Ten years? - Yes, ten years.
Don't worry, I'll handle Madhusudan.
You just tell me how we can purchase all the machine parts.
It can't be done. It's not possible..
JK, please tell him.
In an auction, a single company cannot get all the parts.
[Bapat] 'A machine is decommissioned once in three or four years...
'The parts are dismantled in the presence of a government auditor..
..and Madhusudan Mishra.'
'And the parts are auctioned under Madhusudan Mishra's supervision.'
And most importantly, the main parts never make it to the auction.
Plates...
Without the plates, nothing can be done.
[Chatre] 'And they destroy all the plates.'
And we need all the main parts...
...the paper, ink, and plates, we need them all.
[Bapat] 'Which is impossible.'
'Otherwise everyone would be printing stamp papers.'
Bapat.
There's a world of difference between everyone and me.
[Singing song]
[whistling]
[beep on pager]
Hey it's your turn...
Hello?
Yes, Madhusudanji.
Absolutely. I'll be there.
[indistinct chatter] [machines whirring]
Hello, sir.
Abdul Karim Telgi, please have a seat.
Are you fond of poetry?
- Excuse me? - Are you fond of poetry?
Sometimes.
Listen to this one.
"Is the country really prospering?"
"When dacoits are still issuing decrees.."
"Where everyone's integrity has been compromised."
"You tell me, are we really free?"
Tell me?
Sir, we've been free since 1947.
And we're still there.
It's because of people like you that we are still stuck there.
What did you think?
That you would sneak your way in with a watch?
Get your work done?
No, sir. I was...
Pick up the watch.
Pick up the watch!
I called you here, to crush the arrogance you came in with.
Understood?
I'm very... I'm very sorry, sir.
Sir, you're so senior.
Your integrity is so much bigger than my actions.
I'm a poor man, sir.
I run a small product shop.
I wanted to discuss a product with you.
Had I chosen the direct route, I would have...
...been stopped by the bureaucrats under you.
I had no time. So I...
So, to save time, you gave me the watch?
I came from a poor family myself.
I've reached here with sheer hard work.
Since 10 years, I've been working here tirelessly.
I never resorted to unethical means.
That's how I've earned this respect!
And people like you use poverty as an excuse, to do wrong...
...and you think everyone will fall for it?
Get out!
[Chatre] 'Listen, Abdul...'
'You don't listen.'
'You've narrowly escaped arrest.'
'I told you repeatedly...
...that Madhusudan Mishra is unshakeably honest.'
Not everyone is swayed by money.
And tell me something. Why does Madhusudan Mishra need you?
Why would he need you?
[Bapat] 'Seriously man, it could have been much worse.'
[Chef] 'Hey, you can't come here..'
We're the ones drinking, and he's high.
[Chatre chuckles]
Life has become so bitter that even my blood craves sweetness.
I feel better now.
Hey, Pakya, bring another cold one.
Pakya is now Manager Prakash.
Stop treating him like a waiter.
[Bapat] 'Show him some respect..'
Why do we come into this world?
To swat flies.
[chuckles]
We don't come into this world to live.
We come to earn.
Everyone needs to earn something, right?
Some need respect, some need money, some need power.
Like Pakya doesn't want to be Pakya.
He wants to be Prakash.
I'm different too.
I don't want to earn money.
I want to make it.
Similarly, that Madhusudan is different too.
He wants to earn respect.
He has worked tirelessly as a Deputy Manager for ten years now.
But hasn't achieved the position of a General Manager.
That's his need.
If we wish to make money...
...then we need to first get him some respect.
Where you 'get' it? In a shop?
There's one not-so-gentle man...
..who can transform Madhusudan into a gentleman.
Abdul, where are you going?
To Dhule. Come with me.
[Tukaram] 'In Delhi, you'll have to pay even for a sneeze.'
Getting Madhusudan's promotion papers stamped, will be expensive.
Tell me, how much will it cost?
It's a high-ranking position.
You'll need to arrange a minimum of 20 to 25 lakhs.
We'll meet at the Mumbai airport in four days.
F***er. How are you going to arrange...
...20-25 lakhs in cash?
I have a lot of confidence in my savings account.
The cash will come too.
Let's meet in four days.
Stop buttering me...
...and stop making irrelevant offerings.
Sir... you are a senior minister...
Why are you involving me in this?
Huh?
It's not even my ministry.
So, just cut this b******t...
...and stop wasting my time.
F**k off!
- Tukaram. - Hmm.
Who was the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu?
It was... Hiranyakashyap.
Tukaram, he was a demon.
The seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu was Lord Rama.
- Who was the eighth? - Lord Krishna.
Correct.
So, Tukaram, Lord Rama didn't like butter, but Lord Krishna did.
Got it?
There are more powers high above...
...who can bestow their blessings on your Madhusudan.
If you want to take a chance, go ahead, otherwise, you can leave.
[JK] 'You gave him the money without any guarantee?'
Damn it.
How much more risk are you going to take?
In this business of ours, no matter what...
...if we want to succeed...
...then we must take risks, my darling.
So, you're certain that things will fall into place?
Not at all.
But I know one thing for sure.
PA Gupta may be a rascal...
...but Madhusudan Mishra is truly deserving of this promotion.
He really should get it.
[cell phone ringing]
- Hello. - [Gupta] Abdul Bhai.
The higher powers are pleased.
[Gupta] They've given their blessings.
Good morning, sir.
Are you here to apologise?
No, sir, I'm here to congratulate you.
I want you to remember, that I was the first to congratulate you.
Congratulate me, for what?
It's a surprise, sir.
You'll love it.
Good day, sir!
[clapping and cheering]
Congratulations, sir.
Sir... Sir…
Your new cabin is over there.
General Manager, sir. Congratulations.
[Madhusudan] 'I don't want such a promotion!'
Nobody noticed my honesty, my capability.
My efforts hold no worth, no significance.
But... This...
A crook...
...takes all but two days to accomplish what ten years of hard work couldn't.
It's undoubtedly because of your corrupt mind-set.
Damn it...
In just...
...in a moment, your dishonesty defeated my integrity.
Everything you said, I heard none of it.
All I heard was a loud sound...
...and all your words drowned under it.
It was the sound of your heart breaking, Madhusudanji.
All I did was listen to your heart.
Why don't you listen to mine?
The problem with you is..
..that you don't listen.
I tried to speak to you earlier as well.
But you wouldn't listen then, and you won't listen now either.
This promotion that you've received, is solely yours.
What have I done? I haven't done anything.
The system failed to acknowledge your potential...
..but I've recognized it.
Right?
Now, the choice is yours, Madhusudanji...
...whether you want to let the system disappoint you...
...or you want to join hands with me and progress.
I'm speaking my heart.
Please.
Listen to it.
Madhusudan Mishra has initiated an audit.
He's already begun labelling one of the machines as junk.
[sound of machines whirring]
Sir, I've tried everything.
But there's no way. It's junk.
- Are you sure? - Yes, sir.
What should we do now, Mister?
This machine will be dismantled just like others before it.
[Abdul] 'Photos of its parts will be taken...
...and the auction and bidding will take place in the usual manner.'
The purchasing department will choose only those companies...
...that place the highest bids.
And that's why we'll submit blank bids.
[Abdul] 'Salim.'
Suleiman. Zuben.
JK, and I.
I've registered five companies in each of our names.
[Abdul] 'The Purchase Officer will be our man.'
'Whatever is the highest bid he receives..'
He will fill a higher bid than that on our blank bidding forms.
Technically, our bidding will become the highest.
The companies with the highest bid are, Mr. Jayant Karmarkar...
[Auctioneer]...'from Muqaddar Enterprise, Bhusawal.'
'Mr. Zuben from Sikandar Engineering, Mumbai.'
'Mr. Suleiman from Vijay Mechanicals, Latur.'
'Mr. Salim from Agnipath Traders, Belgaum.'
'Mr. Abdul Karim Telgi from Shehanshah Mechanics, Mumbai.'
'I request all these companies to complete the remaining formalities.'
'And with this, today's auction comes to an end.'
Did you keep the plates aside?
Following the procedure, all the plates have...
...to be cut in the presence of the auditor.
The plates are large and are made of zinc.
The process is simple.
The plates are inside a cover.
[Abdul] 'Which is detachable.'
'Most people don't know this.'
'They mistake the cover for the plate.'
'Madhusudan Mishra will separate the cover from the plate...
...and insert a tin sheet of the same size into it.'
'When the cover is cut in front of the auditor...'
...it will seem to him that the plates are being cut.
However, in reality, it will be the fake tin sheet that's being cut.
Meanwhile...
[Abdul] 'Madhusudan Mishra will secure the actual plates.'
'Once that's done, we'll transport...
...all the parts in five tempos, to Mumbai.'
'Along with those parts, Madhusudan...
...will give us these plates too.'
'Then, with the help of Bapat and Chatre...
...at the Mumbai press..
..we'll assemble all the parts back into a machine.
Dumping roll?
Dumping roll... It's here.
- Water roll? - Received.
- Photo shield? - Received.
- Gripper? - Yes.
- [Chatre] 'Feeder? - [Bapat] Feeder received.'
- [Chatre] 'Motor? - [Bapat] Motor is here.'
'Okay.'
- Plates? - Plates?
Just a moment. I can't see them.
Hey, brother, have you seen the plates?
- No. - No?
How is that possible?
[Chatre] 'Check again properly.'
[Bapat] 'They are not here.'
- [Chatre] 'Did you check properly? - [Bapat] Yes.'
- [Bapat] 'We haven't received the plates. - What's wrong, Chatre?
Madhusudan Mishra hasn't sent the plates.
There might be a mistake, check again.
Madhusudan Mishra was personally overseeing...
...the transportation of all the parts.
I think he didn't send them on purpose.
[Madhusudan] 'You've already embroiled me in illegal activities.'
But what you're asking of me now, is very risky.
Every day, I have a feeling...
- ...that the police will come... - [Abdul] Why are you so scared?
Oh no. I'm not scared.
Look, the thing is...
...I'm putting my years of work and my reputation on the line.
And I'm not getting the appropriate value for it.
Hmm.
And what is this 'appropriate value'?
I'm just asking.
Why don't you speak clearly?
Twenty-one lakhs.
[chuckles]
I don't have 21 lakhs right now.
But you can...
Keep this.
As soon as the work starts, you'll be the first to get your share.
Not 21, 25.
But in return, I need something from you too.
For the printing, we'll need dye and paper.
And we'll need your help with that.
Dhondu, bring a milk tea, a black tea...
...and an empty glass, quickly.
And anyway, the government has officially declared...
...that certain decisions at the Nashik press...
...can be taken by the General Manager.
After getting the transport contract to Salim...
...en route, between the traders and the press...
...we'll take as much dye as we need...
...from the sealed cans.
And in return... What's this called?
Di-chloropropane.
We'll put the di-chloropropane chemical...
[Abdul] '...and seal the cans.'
Now, the dye that you have...
...and the dye that we have, are of the same formulation, right?
Hmm?
Nice and strong.
Send the plates directly to the Mumbai press.
And now, give me the contact of the paper supplier.
Sir, these papers...
Cotton-based papers.
[Abdul] To print the stamp papers...
...we already had the plates and the special dye.
Now, we needed cotton-based papers...
...on which stamp papers are printed.
These papers are used for only two things.
Stamp papers, and college degrees.
After all this hard work, the question was...
...would our stamp papers match the exact quality...
...of the government-issued ones?
Congratulations. You've become a father.
Stamp paper is born.
[laughing and cheering]
Abbu!
Oh, my darling!
Surprise!
Oh, wow!
- Wow! - You've been hiding in the shadows.
How come you've come into the open today?
[mimics] I am a hero. I can't stay behind the curtain for too long.
I had to step out for the heroine.
[Zia giggles]
Go to your room and see the present I've brought for you.
You'll love your Abbu a bit more.
- Come on. - Wow, a present!
I'm aware of the questions brewing in your mind.
The questions aren't about the past...
...they're about the future.
Like I read the questions in your mind...
...can you read the answers in my heart?
The mission I had embarked upon, Nafisa, I've accomplished it.
Enough of living in shadows like this...
...and enduring people's taunts.
It's over now.
Forget all your sorrows, all your pain.
Nafisa, now it's time to move forward.
Whatever happens next will be good.
Truly wonderful.
[kisses]
[doorbell ringing]
- Do you recognize me, Bharade sir? - What is it?
Does the name ring a bell? Abdul Karim Telgi.
I went to jail...
...even though you had assured me that nothing would happen.
I was ruined.
I used every cuss word I knew...
...except 'Bharade'.
Now, it's your turn. Do me a favour.
I needed licenses for a few of my partners.
Look, the hospitality you were receiving in jail...
...wasn't charity.
We're even. Now get lost.
- Bharade sir, just a minute. - What is it?
[cell phone ringing]
There.
[cell phone ringing]
Namaskar, Mr. Bharade.
Sorry...
Come, let's talk inside.
Hello, ma'am.
Can I get some water?
You are a b******, Bharade sir.
I don't care how you feel..
But you'd better not be the reason..
..for another mishap like the last one.
I need all these licenses within a week.
This is just the beginning.
We need to maintain this relationship.
Starting today, I hold the reins of your license kingdom.
Hmm?
[Shaukat] "O Allah, I ask You for beneficial knowledge...
...goodly provision, and acceptable deeds."
"Glory be to Your Lord, the Lord of Honour, above what they describe."
"All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds. Ameen."
Ameen.
Are you happy?
Yes, of course.
Since when have you started lying to me?
Look, my dear..
Have you ever heard of anyone hiring salesmen..
..to sell stamp papers worth 50 and 100 rupees?
Hmm?
Those who need stamp papers get them directly from the vendor.
Why are these salesmen required?
He's working so hard.
It's a new business and you don't seem to notice that.
At least don't be suspicious.
You will never understand him.
Take care of yourself.
[laughing]
What happened?
Why are you making a spectacle?
With this expensive bike, who are you trying to impress?
We might get into trouble.
What's wrong, Abdul Bhai?
Even you spend on your family.
When you've got cash, why live like a beggar?
I've spent on myself.
This wealth isn't ours.
We're only guarding it. Get it?
We've made so many promises along this journey...
...that by the time we finish feeding the hyenas, all the money will be gone.
What are we going to do then?
- Come on, that's enough. - [Abdul] Hmm?
- Sorry. - What will we do then?
Enough, Abdul.
Zuben, take him away.
Go have dinner, both of you.
Here.
Let's go.
We've grown now...
...the business has grown too.
We need to behave like moneyed people do.
But what do we do?
Working in Mumbai alone won't yield much now.
If not Mumbai, where else?
Everywhere else.
All over India.
[Abdul] My business was thriving.
I had built my own fortress of wealth.
Day and night, we were printing stamp papers worth millions.
And my salesmen, with their MBA degrees...
...were selling them with utmost dedication.
I also expanded the business to Karnataka.
Salim took over the responsibility of Karnataka.
Under him, the Karnataka business flourished.
Money seemed to be pouring in.
I wasn't earning money, I was making it.
We were incredibly happy.
And I made all the hyenas happy too.
Once again, I had set my system in place.
From ministers to guardians, everyone was serving this system.
And the remote control to this system, was in my hand.
When the destination is in sight, the mind starts racing on its own.
But as they say, even if the jungle changes...
...its rules remain unchanged.
[Salim] 'I possess a valid license.'
I have the right to sell stamp papers, got it?
[Balekundri] 'Show me the receipt.'
[Salim murmurs]
It's at the head office in Mumbai. Give me a few days, I'll get them.
[Abdul] Just like in Maharashtra...
...Karnataka also had its fair share of hungry hyenas.
One of them was Fahim Sheikh.
A minister who maintained records...
...of all the illicit activities in Karnataka.
My business in Karnataka is relatively new.
But I can still offer you a 15 percent cut.
More asked me...
...that's why you're here.
Let me speak frankly.
I have multiple businesses...
...and you'll have to invest in all of them.
At least 10 percent.
What are you thinking?
Nothing, sir.
I'm thinking about your perspective.
My focus is on building friendship while your focus is on the funds.
Alright.
I'm ready to invest in all your businesses.
But in return, I want your friendship.
Permanent.
[Salim] 'Well, what can we do?'
'Everyone wants to suck our blood here.'
These corrupt politicians are shameless to begin with.
Their desire for power strips them.
They're exposed, as if standing in just an underpant.
And the drawstring of this underpant is in the hands of the public.
Like this.
The day the public releases its grip, the underpant slips away...
...leaving them stark naked.
We must ensure that we keep the public on our side.
The entire nation's public?
Start from Khanapur, Salim.
Those who fear don't deserve to wear a crown.
Begin with bringing the people of Khanapur on your side.
When a crowd walks behind, everyone will fear you.
Then watch how the police and politicians lose their might.
You'll see how, at a mere gesture of yours...
...people will follow you like a flock.
No one will dare touch you.
Don't play a mock-gangster. Forge your leadership through public welfare.
[Abdul] 'Do you understand?'
How will I do all of this on my own?
And where should I start from?
Start by making a pilgrimage to the dargah of Baba Ajmer Sharif.
And don't go alone, take all of Khanapur along.
[Abdul] 'After that, buy land in Khanapur.'
We will build the biggest house in Khanapur.
[Salim] Haji Ali Sheikh, Salman Saiyyad.
Shahbaaz Pathan and Shahdaab Raheem.
Let's go.
Buses number one, two, and three are ready to depart.
[Salim] Hurry up.
Your expenses have been covered by your dear Abdul Karim Telgi...
...Faridabee and me.
[Farida] Abdul, this house is so big, and it's just me here.
And you.. you visit me once in six months...
...and try to placate me with these gifts?
What should I do, Ammi? My business is keeping me away from you.
Nonsense.
[chuckles]
Here.
- Ammi. - Hmm.
Do you still remember the train tracks?
Do you remember the house shaking every 15 minutes?
Yes.
Can you sleep without the sound of the train?
I have to.
Ammi, I haven't forgotten my roots.
Today, I have a big house in Mumbai.
Hmm.
But I still hear the sound of trains in my sleep.
[laughing]
[cell phone ringing]
- Hello. - [Nafisa] Abdul, Shaukat Abbu...
[Nafisa sobbing]
- [Abdul] Shaukatbhai...
Abbu...
[Abdul] It is said that the greatest truth...
...lies in the eyes of a dying person.
I will never forget Shaukatbhai's dying eyes.
They held a truth that I had never repeated to myself.
[MBA Rep 1] 'Sir, we have made great strides in Maharashtra...
...Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Rajasthan and West Bengal.'
Yet, the numbers are not increasing.
What is the problem?
Sir, for the growth of any business, there are two crucial factors.
One is demand, and the other, supply.
To enhance the demand for any product...
...we need to first create a need.
[MBA Rep 1] 'And Sir, this is such a need-based product...
...that we can't create new demand for it.'
'We are selling as much as all the other vendors are.'
'In fact, we are selling a lot more than them.'
We have more than 28 percent market share, sir.
Now, if we want to progress further...
We'll need to eliminate competition.
All the government institutions, banks, and stamp vendors.
But sir, how is that possible..
[Abdul] 'Until a person steps inside the pool...
...he doesn't realize how hot the water truly is.'
If it becomes excessively hot, he could get burned, right?
You don't get it?
We've entered the market now, but the competition is very high.
What competition? Who's the competitor?
You have a monopoly, my friend.
This system that I've established has now become a family.
Where we all earn together.
[Abdul] 'Right?'
And who's the head of this family?
It's me.
If the head fails to maintain his strength...
...he can weaken the entire family.
Hence, it's my duty to stand up against the competitor...
...and shut them down.
How many times do I ask? Who is your competitor?
The Nashik Press Institution of the Republic of India.
You are my competitor, sir.
This is the largest press of the Government of India, isn't it?
It prints stamp papers worth crores of rupees every day.
And countless government agents sell them.
Now, because of this press...
...I remain a tiny player of this enormous market.
After all, I also print stamp papers, sir.
Now, my business can flourish...
...only when your press shuts down.
So, I need your assistance to shut down your press.
Have you f*****g lost your mind? Huh?
This press is the backbone of the country's economy.
It can't shut down! And how can I even do it?
- My insulin will drop... - [Abdul] 'It won't.'
I'm not asking you to shut it permanently.
What do you call that... Maintenance.
Use maintenance as a reason to halt its operations for a few days.
Even large power grids shut for maintenance, don't they?
Power grids are shut down for a few hours.
I too am talking about only a few days, sir.
Just until there is a shortage of stamp papers in the market..
..and people's attention shifts to us, just until then.
The moment that happens, people will buy only from us.
And then if there's a surplus of your stamp papers after that, so be it.
What are you thinking, sir?
Nashik has ruled for years now.
Let us rule for a few days.
[Theme Music Playing]
