It's amazing! Your birthday and
your daughter's birthday...
..fall on the same day.
Yes. And we celebrate
our birthdays together...
..on the same day
every year:
Where's Mrs. Sehgal?
There are people
who want to meet you.
This is my brother.
This is my nephew, Jai...
And who's she?
Ah! Aarti...
Looking at your figure,
it doesn't appear...
..that you're the mother
of such a grown-up girll.
Who told you that
I'm her mother?
I'm only her step-mother.
But my sister loves Aarti more
than her real mother would.
Isn't Aunt a bit foolish?
Not a bit. She's very foolish.
You want to go to Palankhet?
People go to see America
and Europe, whereas...
..you want to visit a tiny
hill-station like Palankhet?
Why don't you go to
Switzerland instead?
Because what I can find at Palankhet,
I cannot find elsewhere.
What's so special at Palankhet?
My mother's memories.
Father...didn't you meet mother for
the first time at Palankhet?
Look... it is Shalini now
who is your mother.
Forget the one who is dead.
Let her go if she wishes to.
Besides, aren't you visiting
Germany for a few days, too?
Yes....when do you
wish to leave?
When are you leaving
for Germany, Father?
All right. Then I'll
also leave tomorrow.
to go all alone.
What'll people say? That I let my
young daughter go all by herself?.
She's right.
Gulab and Kamal... you must
accompany Aarti tomorrow.
To Switzerland?
Not Switzerland.
What did you say was
the name of that place?
Had you telephoned the Hotel Taj?
Did you ask them to
send a car?
Has the car arrived then?
What can one say? The hotels
here are all useless.
Had we telephoned London...
This is not London.
Will you continue to stare at me,
There's an only taxi
parked there.
If we miss that one too,
we'll be stranded here.
She's right... Please stay here.
We'll go and fetch the taxi.
Raja Hindustani.
Raja Hindustani...?
(as in cheats ).
Anyway, what does it have got
to do with us? Come on...
These people are very lazy.
He's taking a nap. What now?
I'll wake him up.
Hey! Wake up!
Hey! What're you doing?
Who're you?
I'm the helper on this taxi.
My name is Rajnikant.
Wake your driver. We wish
to go to Palankhet.
We can't go.
Why can't you?
The boss sleeps at this hour.
He sleeps at this hour? Is he in
eternal sleep that he can't wake up?
Hold one leg.
I'll hold the other.
Let's see how he doesn't wake up.
Come on...Get up!
Wake up, O descendent
of the demons!
O descendent of the demons?!
What do you think of yourself?.
Who dared wake up the
Indian King of Hearts!?
Not me, Boss. They did.
These people?
Who addressed me as a descendant
of the demons?
Not me, Boss. They did.
They did?
Who thumped my cab?
Not me. They did.
They did?
Aren't you ashamed of raising
your hand on a woman?
Woman? Is she a woman?
What else? Can't you see?
And who're you? Her sister?
I'm male. My name is Gulab Singh.
She's Kamal, a female.
Everything is wrong here. Hot is
cold and cold is hot.
Don't you know about them?
About whom?
Shut up, will you? We want a taxi
to take us to Palankhet.
Just tell me if you
will come along.
No.
And why not?
I don't feel like it.
I don't want to go.
Then how'll we go?
Put the luggage on your head...
..and walk the distance
of 250 kilometers.
But just listen...
Didn't I say no?
But please listen...
Didn't I say no?
We're new here. And there's
no other taxi around, too.
Please help us.
You may charge us money.
How much would you charge?
500 rupees?
All right. Take 600 rupees.
All right. Tell me.
How much will you charge?
Boss...
- 500 rupees will be enough.
What?
Yes.
- 500 rupees is enough. As it is,
our taxi belongs to Palankhet.
How amazing! When I asked
you, you refused.
But when Madam asked,
you agreed. Why so?
That's my look-out!
Fetch Madam's luggage.
Yes, Boss.
Please come, Madam. Be seated.
Hey! Where are you going?
To sit with Madam.
No way. Madam will make herself
comfortable in the rear seat!
Come on. Let's sit in the front.
No, not in the front.
My cleaner, Rajnikant,
sits up front with me.
As it is, while driving, sometimes
Then where will we sit?
Yes...where will they sit?
Don't be worried. I've a special
airl-conditioned place for them.
Where's that?
Above.
Looks like he's
going to kill us!
Hold tightly! I think that
this man is crazy
What're you doing?
Look ahead, Boss! Or you
might cause an accident.
Shut up!
Excuse me...
Yes, Madam?
How far is Palankhet from here?
5 hours in a ramshackle bus.
And 3 hours flat in
Raja Hindustani's taxi.
Your name is Raja Hindustani?
Yes. Didn't you like it?
No...it's fine. But it's
a bit different, isn't it?
Yes, Madam. It's different.
My name is different from others.
My name is Raja because I'm
the King of my moods.
Nobody can dominate me. And
I'm a Hindustani because...
in this country, you find Hindus,
Ssikhs, Christians, Muslims...
but no Indians...
I'm an orphan. When I was a kid,
Now I'm just the child
of my country.
You're a very interesting
person:
Am I not?
Thank you, Madam.
What's this?
Why? Madam?
