'Hi, I heard about your mom.'
'I hope she's doing fine.'
'And you too.'
'Text me when you can.'
I was getting hiccups, Antara.
You must have been thinking of me, right?
Antara, what are you thinking about?
Nothing.
Come on.
Let's go.
I was thinking
with all this election work,
we hardly get any time for each other.
So...
how about a drive to Mussoorie, like old times?
Just you and me for the weekend.
I'm not in the mood, Dev.
Are you avoiding me?
Is there a problem?
Not at all.
Since your birthday, it feels like you're here but not really here
with me.
There's a lot of work, Dev.
Let's finish it first, shall we?
Hmm?
This Manas Chauhan has crossed all limits.
What happened?
He's distributing free alcohol in the PG area.
He's back to his filthy tactics for votes again.
Well, let him do it then.
It's not like we were getting any votes from the PG area anyway.
Hmm?
Let him carry on with his drama.
We can't really do anything about it.
At least not without proper planning.
If we truly want to win the PG area
then get up and move.
'We'll go tomorrow or the day after, but only after planning it properly.'
All these excuses will get you nowhere.
'These people from the PG area are absolute hooligans.'
'Look at this.'
'They don't care who the Student Union leader is.'
'They're a union in themselves.'
'Oh, they're just a bunch of freshers.'
'When will the sports quota boys ever be of any use?'
'I'm from the 75 kilo category.'
'I was thinking'
'if'
'a peepal tree'
'doesn't get soil'
'it still grows through the cement wall.'
'Hmm?'
'I mean'
'but wherever you find a way, create your own path.'
'No, you might think I'm joking'
'wherever you find a way, create your own path.'
Okay, everyone, listen up.
The rally has been preponed.
We're heading to the PG area tonight.
And we'll respond to Manas's vile tactics.
That PG area
will now become our vote bank.
But Antara, it's not safe.
Wherever you find a way
create your own path.
For a moment, it felt like Rajveer was speaking.
All right, if the leader has spoken...
Let's do this.
'Listen, Raju.'
'I'm leaving for Delhi now.'
'For studies. For college.'
'You take care of Mom and Dad here.'
'Who are you people, and how did you get inside the house?'
'Mister, please! He's a child!'
'Hey! - He's just a kid!'
'Rajveer, what have you done?' 'No! No! No! - Brother!'
'Blood!'
'Karanveer, no! - Brother, you can't leave me alone.'
Oh, dear.
Why is my son toiling away in the dust?
There's no need to struggle so much.
This soil is where you belong, my boy.
What are you doing here, Dad?
Weren't you supposed to be with Mom?
Son, your mom's asleep.
She's taken her medicine.
She's at peace now, she's asleep.
It's been four days since she came home from the hospital.
She's fine now.
And listen, you should go too.
Go to Delhi. Focus on your studies.
You've already missed out on quite a bit.
Why waste yourself in this dust?
Son, it wasn't your fault.
It truly wasn't your fault.
Understand that.
Why did brother leave me all alone?
Everything feels incomplete, Dad.
And at times it feels
as though the wrong son was taken from you and Mum.
You're still a child, my boy. Just a child.
No, son.
Pull yourself together.
Don't dwell on such thoughts, son.
You just
keep your mind on your studies and your boxing.
Whatever's unfolding at home,
your mum's illness, and
this hollow quiet in the house
one day, everything will fall into place.
And it will all bear Karanveer's name.
My dear boy
just concentrate on your studies and boxing.
Come on now, my brave son,
I'll get you some milk and 'Jalebi'.
Come on.
Come.
Well done, my lion-hearted boy.
Oh, goodness gracious!
Antara's heading to the PG area tonight.
We aren't prepared for this.
We're not ready for this.
Are politicians ever truly ready?
Antara is impulsive.
She takes risks.
And that's her weakness.
What?
What weakness?
I just don't get it.
Look
if she goes there
and somehow convinces them... - She won't be able to.
And as for her going, let her.
It's good, actually.
Only when she steps into the muck will she realise
that giving speeches
and practicing politics are two different things.
Isn't that right?
Then what should I do?
Do whatever's right for your ballot.
You play hockey, don't you?
We won't just make promises
we'll actually deliver results.
Safety, education, all...
It sounds far too scripted.
Speak from your heart, Antara Shukla. All right?
We all... - Antara
why are you taking so much stress? - Pal...
Your prep is absolutely solid.
And right now, you only need one thing.
I think now, instead of fear
we amplify the voice. Right?
Where have they gone now?
They've arrived.
The heroine's here, roll the film. They're only here to show off.
Any news about Rajveer?
Looks as though a fashion show is underway here.
Hey, is there a fashion show happening here?
Aren't these the same people
who never even counted the PG area before
and now have shown up asking for votes?
Yes, the very same ones. - Yes, the same!
Bro, she's a female leader.
Obviously, it'll take her time to reach the stage.
Yeah!
Good evening, everyone.
I'm Antara Shukla.
Ballot number three.
I'm here with solutions to all your problems.
Because…
Come on, sing 'Chammak Challo' for us.
Hey, 'Chammak Challo', give us a dance move!
I promise, you'll sweep all the votes!
That's more like it!
Turn Antara's campaign into a boutique.
And all those flashy ones you see around...
…teach them a lesson they won't forget.
Okay?
Today, I promise you all...
Let's go, guys.
that I'll ensure... - Come on!
that all issues
like food quality, power cuts
electricity
rent, hygiene
and security
especially for the women here
And...
Look, Ballot Number two just tries to lure you
and give you alcohol...
Bro, we've heard enough of their speeches.
We don't need any leader anymore.
Yeah, no more leaders! - No more leaders!
PG area. - Long live!
Just a minute, please hear me out.
Long live!
PG area. - Please, calm down!
Please, listen to me.
Long live! PG area. - Please calm down!
PG area. - Long live!
PG area. - Wait a moment...
Long live!
Hit them! Let's go! - Take that!
Hit them harder! - Hit them!
Hit them!
- Hit harder!
Mate, I'm on your side!
Why are you hitting me?
Oh, man!
Antara, step down from the stage.
Come down now.
Antara!
Get out of there!
Let her go!
What are you doing? Leave her alone. Let her go!
Antara!
Ragini, take everyone and leave. I'll follow. Go!
Quickly!
