and I'll have your blood.

- God promise, sir. Trust me.

Okay. Come to my house tomorrow. Go.

Sir... I'm leaving this here.

Constable!

- Yes, sir?

Who's this Sher Khan?

Lots of complaints against him.

Where does he live?

- He... in Badshah Lane, sir.

Bring him here.

- Whom, sir?

Sher Khan. Who else?

Greetings.

- Same to you.

Cigarette?

Light?

- I'm not so lucky.

No cigarette, liquor or gambling.

I offer them to you.

Enjoy yourselves.

Here, have one.

Jack, Queen and a King!

- Damn!

You win every time! Lucky!

- Today I am.

You won a lot today.

- Yes.

Congratulations.

Have a cigarette.

Bloody cheat!

- I...

I do black deeds; But I'm honest.

Yes, sir?

- Throw this vermin out!

If he dares to come here

again, break his limbs!

Come on, take your share.

But be honest about it.

What is it?

- A constable was here.

Constable? Why was he here?

- To call you at the police station.

To call me at the

police station? Great!

Why are all you worried? Carry

on playing. I'm not dead yet.

Constable...

- Yes, sir?

I asked for the names

of all the black-listed people.

Where are they?

- I'll just get them, sir.

Greetings, Inspector.

I'm lucky to be remembered

by a big officer like you.

What can I do for you?

- Are you Sher Khan?

You're new here, sir.

Else, who doesn't know me?

Anyway, now we've met.

Stand properly till you're

asked to sit down!

This is a police station,

not your own house!

Sir, till today nobody has

spoken like this to me.

It's not you who's speaking,

but your uniform and chair!

When you're without this

uniform and chair, that day...

Don't shout, sir!

You'll get a sore throat.

Ring your bell and ask the

constable to lock me up.

Sir, the file...

- Constable...

Take Sher Khan and show him out.

- No need.

I had come on my own.

I'll go by myself! Good day!

I heard that you were called

at the police station today.

A new officer has come who doesn't

know me. He'll know me by and by.

Get me a cup of tea, son.

Is this the area where people

know you, Sher Khan?

Now, I neither have my uniform

nor my chair. And I'm off duty.

This is your domain

and I'm all alone.

Come to the point, sir.

Nobody's to interfere!

Up, sir!

For the first time in my life,

I've met a lion-hearted man.

Let's shake hands.

By tomorrow morning,

all your gambling dens...

and other joints will

have to shut down!

Only then I'll shake hands with you.

I don't wait for tomorrow,

what I can do today.

Everything is closed from

this moment. Shake!

Boy! Two teas.

Look, your job is not to fight

for your personal respect...

but to save the public

from any sort of tyranny.

Sher Khan has shut all
