Harder! Smash the skull

to release the soul!

How many more days

left in college?

Two more months, Dad.

Then exams and placements!

- What?

- I mean job placements.

Don't you need to

pay something to get a job?

Not anymore, Mother.

The Railway and Electric companies...

hire on merit.

Instead of supervising the ash cleaning,

you're feasting here?

What if the boys steal the

silver?

Uncle Shambhu is supervising it.

Shambu is a pothead!

So? Am I not even

supposed to eat?

How much will the job pay?

They will let me know

after the interview.

Great! Get out of this place.

The sooner, the better.

Otherwise, even your life will

end up torching bodies.

Bread!

Look what I found,

I think it's silver!

Show me!

Throw it you fool. It's aluminium.

Will you ever explain yourself?

I met him at the coaching center

I used to type out his thesis...

and we became friends.

That's all?

Yes, I felt nice talking to him.

Did you even think twice

before doing it?

Even once?

Did you?

Answer me!

What?

- Cat got your tongue?

- I don't know.

A boy just killed himself.

A ransom of 3 lakhs on our heads

l just broke my 1 lakh Rupees

xed deposit.

You're one step away from jail...

and you say "l don't know"

I shed out 26 Rupees.

Please, let me be part

of the competition.

Are you actually asking me

to let you gamble?

It's not gambling!

It's sport and

I have become a pro at it.

Why are you acting so smart?

Today I will play, no matter what.

Why don't you shut up

and do some work!

Got screwed over by a bull or what?

Pooja looks so pretty with the teddy.

Cute, isn't she?

Can you ask

for her friend's name?

How would I ask?

"My friend has a crush

on your poetry-reading friend...

give me her name

so he can ask her out?"

OK, how about we send

her a written request?

Deepak is getting

emotional about her.

Like they say...

"Shake the mango all night,

it'll only fall off the tree

when it's time is ripe".

What is that noise there?

Okay, listen...

do you remember what

she looks like?

- Sure?

- Yes.

Okay.

This is her college group page.

She's got to be here.

Won't you nd her

in Pooja's album?

Of course! She'll be in

Pooja's friend list.

Is that her?

No.

There... there... That's her!

Shaalu Gupta.

Gupta family, eh?

Awesome, dude!

Now create your Facebook account

and let the reworks begin!

I mean send her a friend request.

Should we?

Yeah.

Come one, come all, make big money!

Here's the super competition!

In half an hour, increase your gain!

10 rupees turns to 50! 50 turns to 200!

Now listen to the rules.

These kids will dive in

and bring out coins!

Bet on the boy you think

will get the most coins.
