- The Thakur...?|- Welcome, sir. This way...
I knew it the moment I received|your letter, Thakur...
...that you wished to meet me.
I took the first available train.
I'm putting you to|some trouble, jailer.
Not at all, sir. Just name it...|whatever it be.
- I need two men.|- Two?
Do you recognize them?
There's hardly a prison where|they have not been held, Thakur.
This is Veeru.|...and this is Jai.
They're crooks, both of them.|Thieves of the first order.
I know.
They're just what I need|for the assignment at hand.
I can't say what assignment|you have in mind, Thakur.
But I can surely tell you that|they're good for nothing.
That's not true, jailer.
For all their vices, they|have some virtues, too.
A fake coin is a fake, sir.|Whichever way you look at it.
That is perhaps the difference|between man and coin.
I clearly remember what|happened two years ago.
I had arrested both of them|in district Jamalpur.
We had to reach the police station|at village Tamli by dusk.
Since no other arrangements|could be made...
...we took a goods-train.
I had two constables with me.|And there were these crooks...
...Jaidev and Veeru;|chained and handcuffed.
Could you have been at the Daulatpur|police station earlier, sir?
Yes, I was. Why did you ask?
I remember now!
I've been wondering where I've seen|you, ever since you've caught us.
Remember Lalji's shop? The|provision store which we robbed?
- Do you remember?|- The provision store? No...
Don't you? Jai...
Remember, we were held at|the Daulatpur police station?
- Daulatpur?|- Yes, don't you remember?
- When was that?|- We had robbed the grocer...
He was the officer then...|Don't you recognize him?
All police officers|look the same to me.
I can't help it, you know...|He's always talking nonsense.
Since when have the two of you|been in this racket?
You could say, we stood our own|two feet, the moment we could!
But why must you do all this?
The reason what you're a cop for...|we into it for the money.
Not true. I'm not a police officer|just for the money.
I have enough of family land|to keep us going.
But perhaps I'm fond of the|dangers involved in the game.
We face dangers everyday, too.
There's a difference. I take on|dangers to protect the law.
And you do it to|break the law.
You need to be a brave man,|in both the cases.
Oh sure! You do need courage.
I see.
You guys think you're|very brave, don't you?
You will see when|the need arises, Inspector.
We'd at least take on|15 or 20 guys.
I haven't exaggerated it,|have I?
- Now that you've already said it...|- We deal with it!
Bandits!
Well, Inspector?|Want to try out our guts?
There's still time, Inspector.|Give it a thought!
Don't you try to escape.
Stop the engine, driver!
Let's move ahead!|As fast as you can!
Charge ahead!
Give me a swig! Quick!
- Are you okay?|- I'm all right...
He dares mess with Veeru!
They've fled, the swines!
Let's go... Come on!
I had warned you|not to escape...
What do you think?
We can run away.
Leaving him in this state?
He's going to die, if we|leave him in this condition.
Suppose we take him|to the hospital...
...we get sent away|for four or six months.
- So what do you suggest?|- What do you think?
Get it out.
If it's Heads, we go to the hospital;|if it's Tails, we escape.
They are criminals, no doubt.|But they're terribly brave.
They're dangerous, because|they know how to fight back.
They're bad... but they're human.
Could you find these|guys for me, jailer?
We'll easily find them, if they|are presently in some prison.
But if they're free, it's|difficult to find such people.
