Dhoom: 3 Page #4

Do you think he'll strike again?

Not if he's smart.

It'll be a suicide mission.

Everyone is scared.

They're not sure if the bank is safe.

They don't know what to do.

No one needs to fear this thief.

He's a clown.

He makes a lot of empty noise.

When we catch him, he's bound

to entertain his fellow in-mates.

You're very confident.

You sure you'll catch him?

The destiny of thieves is in

the hands of the police.

And I have Mr. Clown's fate in mine

I'd like to meet Mr. Jai Dixit, please.

Mr. Jai Dixit. India's finest cop.

Delighted to meet you.

I'm Sahir Khan.

What can I do for you, Mr. Khan?

I wanted to share something

I know it may sound strange.

But I can't stay silent.

Actually...

I am the thief.

No one knows.

Except you, of course

I don't get you.

The Great Indian Circus.

The name of my new circus

I stole a trick from the thief

you're after.

It's my new circus act.

Your Mr. Clown, your joker

I know him

2005. Circus Fantastico.

Michigan's travelling circus.

That's me.

And that's him.

He was a star.

Deservedly so.

We were mere circus artists.

But he wove pure magic.

He had no friends, no enemies.

Never spoke to anyone.

Show over. Back in his room

behind locked doors

I used to call him:

Closemouthed Charlie.

He did the most amazing trick.

He'd fly in one direction.

And reappear from another.

He showed his act to our boss,

Mr. Robert

I was sure he'd make our circus

famous.

But Mr. Robert wasn't keen

and said no.

Closemouthed Charlie was offended

I heard him speak for the first time

I can still remember

what he said that day.

Well?

"May you rot in hell!"

The next day he was gone.

They say never hurt a clown's

feelings.

You'll get cursed.

How do you know the thief

is Closemouthed Charlie?

The press say the thief leaves

a clown's mask and a message.

How many clowns say:

"May you rot in hell?"

But why? Why rob a bank?

I don't know. If he's the thief,

he must have a good reason.

Can you identify him in a line-up?

No one saw his face.

Always had his make-up on.

No one knows what he looks like.

But I think...

I can help you.

How?

He and I are men of the circus.

We seek applause.

The only difference is that

I act on the stage.

While he has turned the whole city

into his stage.

Closemouthed Charlie is a genius

I'm not. But...

I can think somewhat like him.

But why?

- Why help me?

- Actually I want to help him.

Helping you is helping him

I want him caught.

Because he isn't a thief.

Maybe he's lost his way.

Something has gone wrong.

This is the only way I can save him

I want to, at any cost.

He's done so much for me

I owe it to him.

It may be your last chance
