Okay God, let's begin

again. I am Raj Mathur.

Recognise me? I'm your Raju.

I thought you'd forgotten me.

I've brought this trident for you. Take.

Hurry up!

- Wonder when our turn will come.

What's going on here? Is

this a temple or a motel?

Wonder who is inside.

He is not coming out.

You understand?

Raju, what are you doing?

Don't disturb us, we

are discussing something.

Hurry up, there is a huge

crowd waiting outside.

Alright, you go.

You haven't left?

Hurry up.

God, your middleman troubles me a lot.

I forgot what I was saying.

God, you know what I want.

I want to be a renowned engineer.

So in my life there should be

big streets, big buildings...

big houses... This

city is very small, God.

I cannot do anything here, God.

My talent will be

wasted here, you know it.

I feel suffocated here.

Send me to Bombay somehow.

God, if I reach Bombay,

my life will be made.

Make me a rich man, God. Look, my

results are going to be declared

today Please let me score well.

Just a minute.

Please God...Bombay.

''My heart is crazy''

''Friends, I am going''

''My destination is far, but go I must''

''Good bye, friends!''

''My eyes hold dreams for the future''

''My goals are very high''

''Don't stop me, friends''

''My heart is not in my control''

''My destination is

far, but go I must...''

''I have set out with a yearning''

''And a million desires in my heart''

''One day, the star of my luck''

''Will surely shine''

''My destination is

far, but go I must...''

Hey hello! Do you know

where Ram Mohan lives?

I don't have time.

- No one seems to have time in

Bombay. Do you know

where Ram Mohan lives?

Abdul, do you want to work or not?

- Of course sir.

You just disappear.

Go serve tea to Pandey.

Pandey uncle, tea. Want anything else?

- No. Did you find a job?

- Not yet. Let's see... Hello.

- Hello. Is this Azad Nagar?

- Yes. Who are you looking for?

- Do you know where Ram

Mohan lives? Who Ram Mohan?

The one whose wife eloped

with the vegetable vendor.

No, he's not even married. -

Shut-up! You are always raving.

He works in Raj Mills.

- Gulu Dada knows everyone.

Take him to Gulu Dada's den.

Give me those hands, Thakur.

What a dialogue it was, Amjadbhai.

I am a great fan of yours.

Boss, some men have come to meet you.

How many men?

- Only five, Boss.

But in 'Sholay', they were just two.

Why am I afraid? I am not afraid.

Hey guys, leave. Its 10 pm.

lf Sister comes, it will pour.

Boss, we have laid a bet.

Just let us play one game.

Just one more strike.

- Just one strike and four men.

That's very unfair!

Gulu Dada, listen. This boy

has come from Darjeeling.

He wants to meet some Ram

Mohan. Tell him where he lives.

Gulu Dada, no one can escape your eyes.

I know, but I cannot help him.

- But why, Dada?

I cannot, that's all.

- But why?

He has left this colony. I

only got his house vacated.

Wonder if he is even dead or alive.

What say, Tamba?

Gulu Dada, how many times have

I told you to shut shop at 10 pm?

Its well past decent people's bed time.

Besides, even the school

exams are going on.

Renu, what have you done? This poor

guy has come from Darjeeling only

today He was asking for someone address.

And you wet him. You didn't do

right. Come, on, leave all of you.

And no Ram Mohan lives here.

I told you it will pour.

Leave, come on. Let's go, Tamba.

Wipe your head.

Hail Bholenath. You gave

me a good bath in Bombay...

Got scared?

- Yes.

Are you new here?

- Yes.

There is no place for

cowards in Bombay. Go back!

lf you stay, you won't

realise when you got sucked.

I have not come here to go back.

I will make something

of myself and show you.

What did you say?

- I am not leaving.

Come here.

- Let me take my bag.

Jaibabu, your dinner.

You?

- Jaibabu, he is new here.

The poor guy was orphaned as

soon as he stepped in Bombay.

This idol inside... People call it God.

I've heard he created the world.

And this creator was

orphaned in his own world.

You are no comparison.

You met Sister?...Take this.

Its just a comb.

- Comb? I thought it was a knife.

Come, let's eat.

- But...

All these ifs and buts

are meaningless words.

Have a place to stay?

Alright, you can stay with me.

Do you know how to live in Bombay?

- How?

Eat, itch, switch off the light.

Open your eyes, and fool people.

Throw your cigarette and burn the

hut. I mean to say, come here.

Kids, have money in your pocket?

- No.

Then scram!...Hey alright, stay.

I won't wish 'namaskar' to

Hindus, 'salaam' to Muslims...

or 'good morning' to Christians.

Because I have not come here

to create communal problems.

Am I right?

- Yes.

You must be thinking I will woo

you with my talks and sell you kohl.

No, that's not my job,

the doctors do that.

Then you will assume I am

going to sell you tooth powder.

I don't consider you to be such fools.

What will you do with

strong teeth anyway?

No brothers, I won't even

foretell your destiny.

Because a street performer,

and his audience, both have bad

destinies. You must be

wondering what I am going

to sell that you don't get in

Bombay. Look friends, in this magical

city, from fritters to chicken...

and from the most petty to the most

expensive, everything is available.

You only need money to buy it.

And that's what you don't

have. All of you are broke.

Every man standing here desires
