Sadiq, hop in.

Give me the keys, qasim.

Take care. Drive only

till the square and back.

It's a car, not a date.

Relax. I'm leaving my

motorbike behind. Hop in.

Careful.

Raees.

Hey, speak up. What's the plan?

You bartered your motorbike for the

car, and now the car for the goats.

Are you setting up

a slaughterhouse?

As lallan said, it's eid.

People even pay 1000 for a goat.

1000?

Who will pay 1000

here in fatehpura?

Not in fatehpura but in Mumbai.

We're going to Mumbai?!

We have to pay 100,000 to jairaj in

three days. Do you have a better plan?

Do you have one?

Ask him.

Excuse me. Where can

we set up shop?

- Over there.

- Up ahead.

- Herd them ahead.

- Move.

Over there.

Salaam aleikom. Waleikom salaam.

Can we set up shop

in the corner?

- Whose goats are they?

- Mine.

Do you have the permission?

Permission...? No.

Where have you come from?

From gujarat.

Pick up your goats and get lost.

Beat it.

We'll set up by the corner.

Hey! Don't you get it?

Brother, it's eid.

We'll also make some money.

You'll have our blessings.

If we slaughter you along with

the goats, we'll be blessed.

Raees, it's not our territory. Come on.

Hey, foureyes!

Can't you hear?

Get out of here!

Darn!

Foureyes needs a hearing-aid now!

Hey, four-eyes!

Never call me four-eyes!

Let's go. Musa is waiting.

Man is always accompanied

by an angel and the devil.

Anger is evil because

it's the devil's forte.

Your boys started it.

We were here to do business.

Your goats made

for great biryani.

What have you to sell now?

A goat is a lion's

prey, not business.

Well,

no business is small.

And no faith is greater

than any business.

My mother taught me.

My loss is great, and I have

little time to compensate.

I have a right to

their blessings.

If you agree, we'll

take it and leave.

Come here.

Your glasses.

It'll help you see

the road ahead.

Musa bhai...

Can we get a plate

of biryani to share?

We're hungry.

For all the festivities around,

we'll be observing a fast, darn it!

Forget jairaj. How will

you repay mechanic qasim?

What is it? Do we

look like clowns?

They made a circus out of us!

And here you are eating away!

The biryani is worth 100,000.

You should have some.

I could eat a horse!

Well, you hardly took a beating.

You deserve a lesser share.

Stop kidding. They

crushed my stomach.

Ace, we have 3475 in all.

What do I do with it? Shall

i give it to jairaj?

Or, repay qasim?

Ice your wounds.

Creditors come knocking

even before we set up shop!

Darn, you followed us here?

Haji bhai sent me from

Mumbai, to talk business.

Let him in. Come on.

Tell me.

Reason for the favour?
