We're robbing his train again

lf his guts are where they're

meant to be...

...let him stop us

Hey brothers! Tell me something

Which of you rascals...

...is the rascal Dibakar?

You look angry. Must be you

How come this train belongs

to a petty pickpocket?

Let's not argue

Let's clear up something

Ask what

Well, what?

The man who unloads the coal

off the train...

...owns the train and runs

the coal trade

You dare show me attitude

on my turf? Antics done?

The train and the coal are mine

Rum?

Now watch me!

Whose train is it?

Mine

lt was mine and always will be

lt can never be yours.

know why?

You scum are Bangladeshi

refugees

Fugitives!

We're not refugees.

We're lndians

Are we to blame if the country

got divided?

This side of the line makes you

lndian

That side of the line makes us

refugees?

We didn't draw the line

But now we will

And our first domain will be

the city of...

Calcutta

The flames of pride are more

dangerous than poison

Fan those flames and they

destroy all souls

The poison of being refugees

tormented Bikram and Bala

They had only one aim

To rule over all of Calcutta

They controlled the coal

The fish market

Burma teak

Steel scrap yards. Gas

Wheat and oil. Controlled

every black market in town

Calcutta was in their grip

The one-time petty coal thieves

were now...

...the city's big shots

With one remaining desire

The desire to become lndian citizens

Your ration card

Now you're legally lndian

No one can dare call you refugees

l can't read

Bikram Bose. Bala Bhattacharya

ln the eyes of the law,

they were criminals

Yet benefactors to the needy

They were illiterate

Yet they built schools in their

names, hospitals, too

They lived by their own rules

No one could match their attitude

Calcutta was now famous for teo

things:

The Howrah Bridge

And Bikram and Bala

The city's toughest outlaws

Long live Bikram and Bala

To every force there's

a counter force

l am the equilibrium in this tale

Transferred me overnight?

ls Calcutta safe and sound?

lf it were safe, would l call

my best officer?

l'm under great pressure, Satya

The elections and Durga festival

are 3 weeks away

Every political party

has one concern:

To get the unemployed youth

back on the right path

Clean up the city

That's government work. Why us?

So many files?

Only two culprits. Bikram and Bala

They're behind everything illegal

Calcutta's biggest outlaws

in the eyes of the law

Yet benefactors to the needy

Roaming scotfree. Outlaws since

they were 14

You called me to help them

grow up?

Shall l try?

Yes. But we have no proof

or witnesses

Two peas in a pod

Break them
