Get some onions.

How long are we to work

our tails off for jairaj?

Let's set up our own business.

We are not cut out for business.

Enjoy the bird in hand.

We are gujaratis. Business

runs in our blood.

In this business, we

need backing, not blood.

Not backing.

Guts.

You forgot jairaj's words.

As fearless as a warrior,

as shrewd as a merchant

I've got it all

I'll win this one

too, ujjwal bhai.

Take a look now, ramnik bhai.

I'll go one more round blind

I'll check mine.

Salaam aleikom, Seth.

Salaam.

You bring me good luck, my ace.

You're funny, Seth.

Not aces.

We're mere servants.

My tiger's not in the mood.

What's wrong?

Seth, I've been working

for years under you.

I want to set up my

own business now.

Business, why?

I'll hike your salary.

Enjoy.

Sadiq, reason with him.

I tried, Seth.

He's made up his mind.

He won't give up.

Really?

Come on.

- My boy has grown up.

- No, Seth.

He'll set up his own business.

It's not like that.

So you must've decided about

vendors and distribution.

You are here. How can I even

think of other vendors?

You know, in our business,

you have to spend money

like a drunken sailor.

I hope you are cash rich?

What are you saying, ramnik bhai?

Obviously, he has the money.

Sadiq?

He has the money, right?

How much stuff do you need?

Worth 400,000?

300,000?

200,000?

Raees, how much do I give you?

Seth...

Just... worth 100,000.

Never mind.

Pay the money, take the stuff

Seth, I don't have the money now

I need some time.

Not even 100,000?

He doesn't have the money.

He needs time.

You have worked for me all these years...

I'll give it to you.

Three days.

Give me cash in three

days and take the stuff.

Fine?

72 hours.

Else, you get zilch!

Keep it.

The clock will keep ticking.

Your turn.

Why did you shoot

your mouth off?

If we don't pay up in three days,

jairaj will destroy us, you know that.

Salaam aleikom, raees.

Waleikom asalaam, qasim bhai.

The car's a cracker!

It costs 100,000. Want to buy?

Forget it. This motorbike

is fine with me.

Try it once. It

rides like a plane!

Next time. Bye. Move it!

God keep you.

- Hey!

- Careful!

You'd have killed it!

Who will compensate for it?

Lallan, you idiot!

He's not even hurt!

What if he was hurt?

Would you pay me 500? 500 bucks?

I'll buy his entire

family for 500!

It's the time of eid.

I bought it for 300.

It won't sell below 500 to 1000 here.

You know that?

Move it, lallan.

Don't mess my brains!

Is he going to build

a castle out of it?

Hey... where do you

think you are going?

Where to? Tell me...

Raees, you're back so soon?

My mind just worked up a miracle.

Let's see what your car's got.
