Are you ready?
Yes. And, you?
No.
Do we have an option?
Do you love me?
Yes.
And, you?
I wouldn't be here if I didn't love you.
Two boxes of Dhiwan's world-famous sweet to go, please.
Yes, magistrate sir.
The bill's already been paid.
Give me. - Huh... the bill's already paid?
We'll keep your phone.
What are you doing?
That way.
But... - Let's go.
Let's go.
STATE PRISON
HOSPITAL WARD
PRISON BUILDING NUMBER ONE
Where are you taking me? I'm the magistrate of Dhiwan.
What is this place? - Move.
Are you going to tell me?
Look, this isn't right.
I am a magistrate.
I've connections pretty far up.
How far, magistrate sir?
All paths lead to this place.
Hello, sir.
No need to be afraid.
I am here now.
I want you to answer honestly.
Are you two willing to get married?
Because your fathers are not agreeing.
And your will counts the most.
We are ready.
Magistrate sir,
do I have to tell you your job now?
DHIWAN CENTRAL JAIL HOSPITAL WARD INAUGURATED BY
RESPECTED MP HARUN SHAH ALI BAIG ON 15th AUGUST 1997
'Since the British rule,'
'the caste system played a big role in Bihar's politics.'
'By the end of the 60s,'
'the backward class finally let out a war cry of rebellion.'
'During this phase, Bihar witnessed the pinnacle of caste wars.'
'But a voice echoed in 1974,'
'who united this fragmented society,'
'against the tyranny of the central government.'
'This voice was Loknayak Jaiprakash Narayan's'
'And two leaders rose from this agitation,'
'who remained prominent faces of Bihar's politics.'
'At times together, at times against each other.'
'And one man was at the centre of their politics.'
'This is his story.'
'With the announcement of the election dates,'
'it's being speculated that Bihar's equation might change.'
'Although these speculations could be true,'
'because two old arch-enemies of Bihar's politics,'
'Chief minister, Mukul Kumar,'
'and Lakhan Rai could meet officially.'
'And Mr. Lakhan Rai could arrive'
'at the chief minister's residence any moment.'
Tell us the reason for your visit.
Tell us something, sir.
Give us an answer, sir.
Just one answer, Lakhan sir. This way.
Greetings, Lakhan sir.
So finally, you showed up.
Someone had to.
Hello.
Let's sit down.
Here's a list of MLAs.
I had it prepared before you arrived here.
I thought it would save us both some time.
This clerical work suits you more.
The calculation is pretty clear in my mind.
140 from my side and,
103 from yours.
We agreed on 50:50
I still have an open offer from the other side.
If the offer was still available, you wouldn't be sitting here bargaining.
You'll be the chief minister,
but the post of deputy remains with me.
I agree to your terms.
But I have a condition.
Harun Shah Alia Baig's name cannot be on the list.
Have some tea.
Long live - Shah Ali!
'Sir, Mukul is planning something big.'
'He met with Lakhan today.'
Sana, when did you get here?
Happy birthday.
Thank you.
What's this?
Are you going to make me cut a cake at this age?
Of course! You don't seem to be aging, anyway.
That's why I didn't bring any numbered candles also.
Oh God!
This shouldn't have happened.
It's just a lizard.
Yes, but it shouldn't have happened today.
Something terrible is about to happen.
Riya Prasad.
Greetings, sir.
Sir, Raghav is here.
Seema Chauhan.
Mr. Sanjay, please continue. - Sure.
Sonamika Patel.
Good afternoon, sir. - Good afternoon.
Raghav, focus on North Bihar.
Especially Chhapra, Dhiwan, Gopalganj, etcetera.
The announcement of the mega coalition
will come as a shocker to everyone.
Don't let them make a scene.
Focus on Harun Shah Ali Baig.
He can get restless. Even resort to violence.
Yes, sir.
Conviction is necessary.
He shouldn't get bail.
No, sir. He won't.
Check between '91 & '96 only.
Don't waste time. Hurry up.
20 years and 34 cases.
But not a single charge sheet,
directly pointing at Shah Ali Baig.
What a shame.
That's only possible if we find a witness.
You know that.
You know him better than I do.
The case he's serving time in jail for...
Murdering political workers.
We couldn't prove his direct involvement.
There are no witnesses.
POLICE STATION BIHAR. CRIMINAL INFORMATION.
Maybe this might help.
How are you, Chote babu?
Your case is getting delayed.
We're trying to wind it up as soon as possible,
and get you out.
Where is your younger son these days?
Call him back, Chote babu.
How long will Brijesh be on the run out of fear?
Only he alone,
can get Harun Shah Ali Baig imprisoned for life.
These are my sins.
And, I'll have to
atone for them
Leave him alone.
Kill me.
Hello.
Rajnanda?
You?
Did you speak with my father?
Chote babu doesn't want to meet.
He clearly refused.
I've grown tired.
Can't do it anymore.
There must be a way.
I'll try.
I'll come up with something.
Greetings, sir. - God bless you.
All good?
What do you think?
It's certainly not good.
Mukul has agreed to all the terms,
except for Dhiwan.
I tried to reason with him,
but he wouldn't budge.
He says he'll nominate his own candidate.
You got me into politics.
I learned the ropes from you.
This is a struggle for my existence as well.
It's do or die.
WILL ENEMIES TURN ALLIES?
Brijesh called.
He wants to come back.
His father doesn't want to talk.
He might, if you speak with him.
After all, I am a reporter.
If I visit the jail too frequently, people will start talking.
And you know Shah Ali Baig.
I know him better
than anyone else.
[whistles]
I've been waiting here for so long. Where were you?
I got potatoes for you. Eat it properly.
Do you like it?
Thank you.
Thank you for what?
It's nothing.
Are you Deepu's classmate?
What's your name?
Harun Shah Ali Baig.
'An important announcement.'
'Tension between two religious groups has ignited riots in Dhiwan.'
'Reports are coming in of brutal violence'
'from Muslim populated areas.'
'We've also received reports that the rioters are'
'setting fire to homes,'
'stealing and harming women and children.'
Look over there.
Your house is pretty far from here.
I've an idea.
Let's go to my house instead.
I see them. Catch them.
Coming.
Mom... - Come inside, quickly.
Those people are coming for him.
Hide here. Come on.
Don't be afraid. I am right here.
Hide here.
Open the door.
Bring that rascal out.
Bring him out.
Bring him out or we will break down the door.
Break down the door.
Don't you dare set foot in here?
Who is that swine? Bring him out.
He is my son!
You are lying.
Why would I lie? I said he's my son!
I don't believe you.
We want to search the place.
Move back.
Leave!
Let's go.
They are gone.
Don't be afraid.
I'm here.
Stop smoking. Save your lungs for the army.
Honestly speaking, I don't want to join the army.
What are you saying?
Mom will kill you.
I haven't told her yet.
I'm waiting for the results to arrive.
What's on your mind?
What are you planning on doing instead?
Let's see.
Come on.
Come on. Why are you afraid?
I prepared as much as you did.
Congratulations, Dipesh. You topped the exams.
Congratulations.
What did you just say?
Congratulations.
Let's go.
Come on.
Come. - Go away.
Greetings, father. - Sit. Sit.
Did you have any issues getting here?
No, father.
Have some tea. - Offer your son first.
He's had a long journey from Muscat.
Shamshuddin. - Yes.
Take him with you.
Maybe he'll get lucky.
So? Will you come along?
I am good.
What will you do out here?
All you do is wander around.
Maybe you can get a job out there.
And what if someone sets the shop on fire?
Then what will I do?
I wasn't born to just do a job.
Dr. Rahi Masoom Raza.
What is it?
Although he writes dialogues for several useless films.
But his books are nothing short of a gem.
Do read. You'll like it.
Do you really read books?
Why? You think I cannot read or what?
You don't seem like someone who would.
Well, looking at Rahi's books,
one could never imagine he wrote dialogues for Disco Dancer.
You have seen it, haven't you?
There is a saying in English.
"You should not judge a book by its cover."
Do read it.
28... - 28...
37...
Faizal sir, take the measurements properly.
37...
I'm bored of this place now, Deepu.
Not in front of others.
He's going to Delhi to study.
I thought you'll join the army.
Make it 40 ½
And I would live with you, wherever you would be posted.
And I thought you just wanted me to get out of Bihar.
It's 41 ½
Whether I join the army or do an MBA, how does it matter?
16 ½
Do what you want.
Where are you going?
To send a letter to Delhi.
40 ½
Mom.
I'll get the sweet.
Has the bill been paid?
No, sir.
One kilo of sweet.
Pack some of your best sweet.
He's at the shop. - Let's go get him.
Looks like you've been making clotted cream, Chote babu.
Are you going to savour it alone?
What are you staring at? Out with it.
Here you go, child. Your rasamalai.
Thank you. - The rasamalai here is delicious.
Have you tasted it?
Drenched in syrup.
Can we taste it too?
JAGDAMBA SWEET SHOP
You...
DHIWAN JUNCTION
[Railway Announcement]
Deepu.
Where have you been?
All thanks to your sweet. Here.
Keep it. I know they are your favourite.
Come with me. Come on.
There's a lot of space on the train. Come with me.
Don't be emotional.
I'll also come to Delhi someday.
You go for now.
And listen, focus less on cigarettes
and more on your studies.
You too... Focus less on fighting, and more on studies.
Don't worry about me. I'll be here at home.
You're the one leaving town.
Look after mom.
Give that to me.
Or you'll leave it behind.
Here.
Call me. - Yes.
Take care.
Did you know Lallan worked for me?
I beat them up because they misbehaved with a girl.
I'll beat them up again if they misbehave.
You bloody... - Hey!
You're bustling with energy,
and confidence.
But it's necessary to know how to utilise them properly.
Come.
I can make you rot in jail for six months, without lifting a finger.
I've a job for you.
You've got dozens of men. Why don't you make them do it?
I want to know if you can do it or not.
Will you do it?
'Everyone has skills,'
'but the one who wields power commands respect.'
'This is a jungle.'
'The powerful are always right.'
'And this is a jungle,'
'where proof of power is given through blood sport.'
Hello.
Dashrath Singh says hello.
'Will rivals turn allies?'
'The increasing closeness between Lakhan Rai and Mukul Kumar,'
'indicates that Bihar's political equation will soon change.'
'There may be a big announcement coming soon from the Chief Minister's residence'
'which will not only have a direct impact on the upcoming elections'
'But also on ex MP & MLA'
'Haroon Shah Ali Baig, who is currently serving time in jail'
'We're taking you live to the chief minister's residence.'
'We've decided to contest the upcoming elections together.'
'Mr. Lakhan, have you decided on a name for the future chief minister?'
We don't have weddings without the groom.
In this grand coalition, Mukul Kumar will always be our candidate,
for the chief minister's post.
Rumours are that you two have strong disagreements,
about Harun Shah Ali Baig.
Do you want all the answers right now?
Eat what you can digest.
Otherwise, you can get indigestion.
Love live... - Grand coalition!
They question my existence, Ghalib.
Tell me what I tell them.
Come, Bakelal.
Who do I meet after this?
Come.
Who is next?
How are you?
Brijesh wants to come back.
Don't stop him this time.
How long will he keep running like this?
These are my sins
and I must atone for them alone.
I've already lost too much.
We all lost something, Chote babu.
But we cannot stay silent, fearing Shah Ali Baig.
Have faith.
Yeah, come forward.
Always attack the shuttlecock.
See...
Sir.
Hello, Aahilya.
I hope you haven't forgotten me.
Don't say such things.
Do tell.
Chote Babu's son Brijesh,
is willing to testify in court.
But father and son want their safety guaranteed.
Tell them that the government will give them complete protection.
Can I trust you?
Yes, of course.
Hang up the call, and I'll make the necessary arrangements.
Hello, sir.
Any update, Raghav?
I have good news for you, sir.
Harun Shah Ali Baig's game is over.
THIS PROPERTY BELONGS TO DASHRATH SINGH.
TRESPASSERS WILL BE STRICTLY PUNISHED.
I planted this flag here two days ago.
News of land grabbing has been surfacing all over Dhiwan.
We'll snatch it back again.
Take it down!
LAAL SALAAM !
I'm giving you a chance to flee!
Otherwise, there will be no one left, to collect your bodies.
Go and tell the people of your political party
This area is under Harun Shah Ali Baig!
More the flags you plant,
More the bodies we will lay here.
That's the law here now!
Let's go.
'Landlords like Dashrath Singh needed strongmen,'
'who not only protected their land,'
'but also kept their terror alive.'
DHIWAN PROPERTIES LTD.
Here is 25,000.
The sowing season is around the corner.
If you could get me the land before...
'Shah Ali Baig handled this job better than expected.'
This week's collection.
Keep it.
'On one hand, he curbed the growing influence of the Naxalites.'
'And on the other hand,'
'established his supremacy on Dhiwan, using money, power and guns.'
'The growing influence of strongmen'
'was changing the foundation of Bihar's politics,'
'which was spotted by the likes of experienced politicians like Lakhan Rai.'
Eat quietly. Or else I will put you in politics.
Come on.
Buffalo's milk is thicker compared to cow's milk.
The game is all about keeping the ratio in mind while mixing.
Right.
An uneven quantity curdles the milk.
And when mixed in the right quantity,
makes the perfect cup of milk tea.
Yes, absolutely.
It's time to mix the cows and buffaloes.
We need a face,
Who will help getting us the unquestionable support of the minorities of Bihar.
Looks like a cupboard to me.
No, mom. It's a fridge.
Fridge? - Keeps things cool.
Brother, if we keep the door open,
can it cool the entire room?
I've brought something else for that.
What did you bring?
Look. This cooler.
Bring it over carefully. - Mom, there's a cooler as well.
I've ordered many more things, mom.
The entire house needs to be up-to-date.
Where did you get this stuff from?
Mr. Gupta sent these?
Are you going to bring these extorted items in my house?
He sent these because he respects me.
It's called fear not respect.
Please leave.
We have to close the place.
Madam, you'll have to leave.
Where?
Go where? - What are they saying?
Greetings Bhai!
Sir, what can I get you?
Ask her.
What would you like, madam?
Get some tea.
Of course.
Why is everyone so scared of you?
Not everyone.
Are you scared of me?
You like all this, don't you?
I like it when people respect me.
Feels even better when they love me.
Do you want to say something?
Yes.
Look Sana, I will be very clear about it.
I'm madly in love with you.
And I want to marry you.
My father will never approve of this.
I never asked.
But what am I going to say, if father asks about your business.
Hi, hero. - Hello.
What's the update?
All good.
That's the collection.
Keep it.
Hope there are no problems.
No, there are no problems.
Something on your mind?
Can I contest the elections?
'But what am I going to say, if father asks what you do.'
'It's called fear not respect.'
ENTRY PROHIBITED.
Saheb.
Some guys are here to meet you.
Greetings, Saheb.
Please accept these, Saheb.
The 'Imartis' from my shop are popular all over Dhiwan
Tell me
Extortion is common all over Dhiwan,
but there is no guarantee of protection.
Right. Right.
Everyone is troubled about it, Sir.
Everyone is of the opinion if you could become our protector.
We will agree on whatever rate you fix.
But, sir, you must protect us now.
Yes, sir. Please.
Where do you think you're going? - Who do you want to meet?
I want to meet Mr. Lakhan.
Where are you coming from? - From Dhiwan.
No, you cannot go inside. - Why.
Move.
Sir...
Greetings. - Come out.
Sir, he's not listening. Just barged right in.
He's from Dhiwan, brother.
He's become quite popular in the last couple of years.
Let me give my own introduction.
Brother, I want to talk to you alone.
Do you know who you're talking to?
Do you believe I came here not knowing that.
Wait.
Go outside, everyone.
God...
I am from Dhiwan.
I deal in properties.
I've the money, men, and guns.
I am highly respected in Dhiwan,
and no one dares to go against me.
I am listening. Continue.
I want to contest the elections from Dhiwan.
DISTRICT AND SESSIONS COURT. DHIWAN - BIHAR
It's tough to get bail in section 307.
But here's what you do, arrange two securities of 50,000 each.
Okay, sir. - Fine. Go on then.
I'll try.
Hello, sir. My name is Dipesh Kumar.
Yes, but your court date is tomorrow.
Come back tomorrow at 10.
I am Dipesh Kumar, sir. From MJNU.
Professor Gyan Sharma must have called you.
Ohh...
It completely slipped my mind.
Mr. Sharma did mention you. How is he?
All good? - Yes, sir. All good.
So... what can I do for you?
I've a friend called 'Saheb'...
I mean Harun Shah Ali Baig. - Yeah.
He loves your daughter Sana.
And they want to get married.
He looks decent,
but threatens like Amrish Puri.
He even gave me a warning.
If I try to meet him again,
he will unleash his wrath.
What the hell can he do?
Maybe he can.
Sorry.
My trip to Dhiwan wasn't too fruitful.
I knew it.
He won't let me set foot out of the house now.
Now?
Hail Mogambo.
Harun Shah Ali Baig,
son of Gayashuddin Baig,
for a sum of 5000 rupees.
Half of which is 2500 rupees.
Marrying Sana Hussain, daughter of Ashraf Hussain.
Do you accept?
I do.
Do you accept?
I do.
Do you accept?
I do.
Congratulations.
- Congratulations.
Sana Hussain, daughter of Ashraf Hussain.
you're marrying Harun Shah Ali Baig,
son of Gayashuddin Baig,
Do you accept?
I do.
Do you accept?
I do.
Do you accept?
I do.
Congratulations.
Done.
Congratulations.
Congratulations, you two.
God bless you. - God bless you.
Father didn't approve of it,
so he didn't let anyone from the family attend it.
You're the only one here whom I can seek blessings from.
He might not approve of it now,
but over time he will accept it.
Don't worry.
Congratulations. - Thank you.
Hey...
Greetings.
Congratulations on your marriage.
If you had told me earlier, I would've made some arrangements.
If I had told you earlier, I would've missed this glow on your face.
But still...
Introduce me. - Yes.
Sana.
Coming.
She is Sana.
And, you know who he is. - Hello.
Congratulations on your marriage.
Long live... - Dashrath Singh!
Long live... - Harun Shah Ali Baig!
Hello.
Poached a fish from my pond now, didn't you?
This is exactly where you made a mistake.
He's not a fish, he's a crocodile
You couldn't recognise him.
Go on. You are senior to us. I'll join you.
He needs to be taken down.
Whatever it takes.
We've seen enough of these old politicians.
We need to develop Dhiwan with fresh ideologies.
Glory to... - Veer Sahib.
'Bihar elections of 1990, was diverse in several aspects. '
'On one hand, old legends were fighting to save their existence,'
'on the other hand, the strongmen'
'created by them, who did their biddings were challenging them.'
Saheb of Dhiwan.
'This was the time that made Shah Ali Baig 'Saheb'.'
God bless you.
You win and do some good for Dhiwan.
I just need your blessings.
'This time the elections were fought with bullets instead of ballots.'
'The entire booth was being robbed right in front of the eyes,'
Enough voting!
'of the people standing outside the polling booth.'
'Such a blood-soaked election was rare in the history of democracy.'
'A lot was going to change in Bihar.'
'Under the leadership of Lakhan Rai and Mukul Kumar
the Prajatantrik party has maintained its lead'
Prepare 20kgs laddus.
and have it delivered to Dashrath sir's manor by evening.
This picture too needs to change by evening.
Otherwise, you'll be punished?
But why? Why will we be punished?
Hey, what ?
From the Dhiwan Vidhansabha seat, candidate of Hindustan Kalyan Party,
'and two times winning MLA Dashrath Singh,'
'has failed to save his seat for the third time.'
'Shah Ali Baig defeated him with 350 votes.' - We won.
Still want me to send the sweets?
I, Harun Shah Ali Baig,
chosen as the MLA from Bihar Legislative Assembly.
I shall bear true faith and allegiance,
to the constitution of India as by law established
and that I will uphold the sovereignty and integrity of India
that I will faithfully and conscientiously discharge my duties.
'Under the leadership of Mukul Kumar and Lakhan Rai,'
'Prajatantrik party tasted victory in Bihar assembly election with a good margin.'
'As per sources, the party shall soon make and official announcement'
'naming their candidate for the chief minister's post.'
The real war begins now.
The central government is on my side.
We just need to stick together.
Until the assembly elections.
Don't worry.
Lakhan is known for daydreaming.
Okay, see you. - Goodbye.
Shah Ali.
Yes.
We need to talk.
On the whole, 55 are supporting me.
And the same figures are with Mukul too.
And 30 from the upper caste.
The real assembly elections will begin now.
How many more do you need to become the chief minister?
Around 22 more.
Don't worry. You will become the next chief minister.
We're late.
I got a call and made a run for it.
Mukul sir must have got a call from High Command,
that's why he called us so urgently.
What's the matter? - Let's go take a look.
Hello. - Hello. Hello.
Who called you here?
Mr. Mishra called me.
Mr. Mandal called me.
I was fast asleep.
When Chaudhary called me.
Yadav called me.
What is the matter?
Who called us all here? - I called you.
Why are you all so stressed?
Where is Mukul sir?
Forget Mukul for good.
And remember only Lakhan sir.
As long as you stay peacefully here,
your family will continue to live peacefully.
What is all this? - This is unfair.
Bring the keys.
See you.
Hello. Hello. - Hello.
Hello. - Hello.
Mukul.
Hello. - All good?
I'll just take my oath and come back in a minute.
Of course. Of course.
So the government will be made with guns and bullets now?
You tried your best too.
But your guns were empty.
Sit.
Hello.
I, Lakhan Rai, do swear in the name of God that
I will bear true faith and allegiance
to the Constitution of India as by law established,
that I will uphold the sovereignty and integrity of India,
that I will faithfully and conscientiously discharge my duties
as a Chief Minister for the State
Great, Saheb. Completely normal.
Don't mention that in the report.
Your case is still pretty serious.
He needs more time to recover. That's what I mentioned in the report.
Does anyone in your community have any kind of problem?
Not at all.
No doctor can dare to charge over 25.
See you, Saheb. - Take this too.
There should be no discrimination.
Hello.
Bless you.
How are you?
I was wondering why you haven't called yet.
Everyone was worried.
But I assured everyone that
we've nothing to worry about, as long as Lakhan sir is with us.
He will handle everything.
Our relationship is not recent, Shah Ali.
I am trying my best.
But this time things seem too tight.
Mukul will have his revenge.
I might have to reach some kind of compromise.
Stay calm.
Hello.
I am Raghav Kumar. Sit. Sit.
Sit.
I've brought some home food.
I know you haven't eaten for a long time.
Don't be afraid.
You are at a safe place.
And what you are doing is huge
Do you want to talk to your father?
Call for you.
Hello, father.
Brijesh?
Yes.
Son, whatever it is that you are doing,
Have you thought this through?
Yes.
Son...
Hello?
I'm not worried about other cases,
but Brijesh's statement directly indicts you.
They have reopened the acid case.
I think he has the government's support.
The court's date will arrive in a week.
The police and the the administration is with you.
You people have suffered enough,
but not anymore.
What will be the outcome?
If the charge is proven, then 302.
According to the new rules of the election commission,
they can ban you from contesting the elections.
Prosecution will demand jail time...
The hell with prosecution... - You're the witness...
Did you wear this black coat to mourn? - Manoj!
Leave everyone.
How do we bring the poor and weak in mainstream,
oppressed for thousands of years
by the upper caste, and influential people?
I personally come from a backward class.
Maybe I was lucky to have made it this far.
But I've seen it.
I've seen their struggle...
The struggles of this class.
I've felt their pain.
If we want to turn Marx and Ambedkar's ideology into a reality,
then this is where we begin.
Say with me...
We're united!
Say with me...
We're united!
Deepu.
Come with me for a minute.
I want to introduce you to someone.
Who is it?
Deepu, meet Krishnaji.
Lal Salaam Lal Salaam
Krishna ji has also studied here at MGNU
I see.
He's been on field fighting for the rights of farmers and workers for seven years.
Krishnaji, I'll go call for some tea.
Yes.
Not for me. - Okay.
I've heard you speak. You speak well.
I heard you're from Dhiwan, and thought we should meet once.
Are you from Dhiwan too?
I am from Gopalganj.
Oh, Gopalganj.
But these days I've been spending more time in Dhiwan.
Dhiwan's condition is not good.
It was bad earlier, but now it's become worse.
Whatever lands these landless farmers had,
were snatched from them.
Several were driven away, and many were killed.
We never thought about foraying into politics before.
But I guess we don't have a choice anymore.
How can we fend against AK-47 with our pistols, sickles and sticks?
Isn't the police or the administration doing anything?
The man behind all this,
cannot be touched by the police and administration.
Who?
Harun Shah Ali Baig.
Do you know him?
Mr. Speaker, Mr. Lakhan cried out pretty loud at Gandhi Maidan.
That this is a government of social justice.
He couldn't have told a bigger lie.
The MLAs of his own party,
has been charged for abduction and murder.
And the name on the top of the list is,
Harun Shah Ali Baig.
With four counts of murder, six counts of conspiracy for murder,
13 abductions and eight cases of forceful land grabbings,
Mr. Baig wants to make some kind of a record.
It's not a big deal. He might even succeed.
Because Mr. Lakhan's government has given him complete freedom...
How dare you say that? How dare you he that?
Calm down. Calm down.
Calm down.
Why do you leftists keep forgetting your place huh?
You think you can contest elections with pistols and sickles?
If you kill one of my kind
Million more will take my place.
Laal...
Salaam
Deepu.
I was thinking even I will apply for a PhD
We'll be able to stay together for a couple of more years.
Is that the only reason you want to apply for it?
Why? Do you have a problem?
Why would I have a problem?
You don't, do you?
You can blush? - Yes.
Deepu. - Yes.
Remember Krishnaji. - Yes. What happened?
The one I introduced you to. - Yeah.
Someone killed him.
Are you serious?
It was a brutal murder.
His body was found in the fields.
He was doing promotional work in the village.
He was going to run for elections from Dhiwan.
MA gold medalist in political science,
Dipesh Kumar.
Thank you.
Thank you, sir.
You're on a roll now. - Thank you.
I sent your proposal to Stanford University.
It's been accepted.
Three years of fellowship and doctorate.
Keep it up, my boy.
God bless you.
Gold medalist Ganesh Ramchandran!
Fellowship, Stanford, Doctorate!
Imagine my condition.
The news is driving me crazy with joy,
how happy will your mom be when she finds out.
Isn't it?
Deepu.
I won't do my doctorate.
I am going back to Dhiwan.
Hello.
All good?
Don't worry.
The hearing is at 2 o'clock.
Do you believe justice will be served?
This is the first instance when we have an eye-witness, Mrs. Aahilya.
Things can get pretty rough for Shah Ali Baig.
'Bihar Police will present a key eye-witness'
'against Harun Shah Ali Baig, in the acid murder case. '
'The Bihar Police springing into action immediately after the mega coalition,'
'clearly indicates that the road ahead for Shah Ali Baig will be pretty rough.'
The police have strict security in place. Don't worry about it.
We'll get him this time.
And I'm following them too.
Okay, son.
Can I speak with my father once?
Here. Speak here.
Hello.
Brijesh here, father.
Yes, son.
The day has finally arrived.
Where are you?
We'll be reaching the court shortly, father.
And the police are with me.
So I've nothing to fear.
DGP sir came to meet me personally yesterday.
He said I'm doing a commendable job.
Don't be afraid...
Hello. Hello!
Yes.
It's over.
Got run over by a truck!
When did this happen?
I thought you'll get a job in Delhi after finishing education.
How did you suddenly decide to come back to Dhiwan?
Why don't you ever tell me anything?
You didn't tell me anything either.
What didn't I tell you?
I don't want to argue, mom.
What didn't I tell you?
Everything that happened out here.
Did you tell me about it?
Go out and take a look at what's happening?
I didn't want to draw your attention to these things.
It's got my attention now. What now, tell me.
I cannot sit idle.
Social reform isn't your job alone.
Maybe it is. What else can I say?
Deepu!
Hello. - Hello.
No, no, it's okay. Here's my hero.
You've arrived at the right time.
Need to discuss something important with you.
Sir, this file.
Give the files to Gonu Jha. I'll check it later.
Go on. - Here you go.
Take it.
Slow down.
Tell me.
I feel this is the right time to plan something big.
What do you think? - I don't understand.
The parliament elections will be announced in six months.
The dates will be announced.
This time you run for MP.
And you for PM?
Wherever I go, I'll take you with me.
But the elections will require money.
This time the fund collection will be your responsibility.
Consider it done.
But we get to select the candidates.
Not at Delhi's beck and call.
Otherwise, we'll be already losing out on 15-20% of seats.
Absolutely right. Then you do it accordingly.
I want all 54 seats.
Right.
Shambhu.
He came free as dowry.
He's become a headache for me.
Keep him with you.
Sure.
Yes.
He is Shambhu. He's very talented.
Do you know him?
Yes. He is Shah Ali.
Saheb.
OFFICE PARIVARTAN PARTY, DHIWAN
We all believed that Krishnaji will run for elections this time.
He had the full support of the entire village.
Maybe that's why he was killed.
Harun Shah Ali Baig is aware,
if the farmers and workers are united,
they pose as a big threat to him.
But who will challenge him?
I will.
I will challenge Shah Ali Baig.
Stop puffing that cigarette like a chimney.
It will kill you someday.
How are you?
Good.
So... what brings you here so unexpectedly?
I had to.
Then why didn't you come home?
Your friend built this mansion.
Sana was asking about you.
We couldn't have had this discussion at home.
What did you want to discuss?
Are you getting married?
You never told me anything about yourself.
But I kept tabs on you.
And I couldn't believe it.
But I added two plus two.
From Jamshedpur murders to Krishna's killing.
Rather than you finding out from someone else,
I thought I should give you a heads up.
I am running for the election.
Against you.
See you.
PRAJANTANRA PARTY, PATNA OFFICE, BIHAR. LOK SABHA ELECTIONS 1996
The list has been given to you.
Now you can prepare tomorrow's headlines accordingly.
Lakhan sir, several names on the list are from criminal backgrounds.
Don't you think this will give the opposition an opportunity.
The opposition is already scared,
and mumbling nonsense.
In this election, out of the ballot box will appear a genie.
"PRAJATANTRIK PARTY OFFICE.
Rajbhar, they have several doubts.
Clear them for me.
Yes, sir.
Here you go. The list.
The list that you had made for me,
yes...
I have sent it ahead as is.
Well... you won't be disappointed.
I have complete faith in you.
Mukul has formed a new party. He will swing our votes.
Let him.
He won't gain anything from it.
All good in Dhiwan?
Yes.
Who is Dipesh Kumar?
I've been hearing a lot about him.
He's a local boy from Dhiwan.
Studied in Delhi.
Is he your friend?
Yes.
Always remember...
When a poor person develops faith in someone,
they will be willing to risk their lives for him.
Let's go, Puran. - Yes.
The buffalo is sick, and you're busy playing politics. Let's go.
Hussainganj, Ziradei and Duraundha.
These three regions are where Shah Ali Baig has a strong influence.
People will never step out of their homes to vote.
Then we'll have to mobilise them.
We must convince them, that this is their fight,
and not our party's alone. - You're right.
Let's start concentrating on these three regions from tomorrow.
Say with me...
We're united!
Say with me...
We're united!
Say with me...
We're united! - Ankita.
Deepu.
You guys...
Say with me...
We're united!
National media is showing that you screwed Shah Ali Baig.
How are you?
Okay.
You?
Nervous.
And happy that you're here.
Thank you.
I am not alone.
Everyone wanted to be here to support you.
I know I haven't told you, but...
Deepu, you're an inspiration.
Will my voice reach out to people?
Now that the word is out,
it will spread far and wide.
Long live... - Dipesh Kumar!
Long live... - Parivartan party!
Long live... - Dipesh Kumar!
Long live... - Parivartan party!
Long live... - Dipesh Kumar!
Lal Salaam
My name is Dipesh Kumar.
And I was raised in this city.
Just like people with big dreams leave Bihar.
I did too.
But the things I saw happening in Dhiwan in the last couple of years,
I had to come back
Several of my friends said I shouldn't come back.
In fact, my own mother suggested that.
There is nothing left here. Don't come back.
But I couldn't stop myself.
I couldn't stop myself because, I imagined.
When the future generation questions me,
"where were you,"
"When a handful of the rich"
"were oppressing millions of poor citizens"
"where were you,"
"when the society needed a new energy and not just a struggle."
"Where were you when the society..."
Dipesh!
Get an ambulance.
DHIWAN JUNCTION
'The murder of the popular student'
'leader and MP candidate from Dhiwan - Dipesh Kumar'
'points fingers at Lakhan's government.'
'Only time can tell how it affects the MP elections.'
I know I asked you to handle it.
It was necessary.
But I had no idea it will gain so much momentum.
It's turned into a national issue now.
You have to deal with it.
The press and the public.
Yes, I will.
Mr. Harun Shah Ali baig,
You are a primary accused in Dipesh Kumar's murder.
What do you have to say?
What did you ask?
Dipesh Kumar's murder... - Deepu was my brother.
I lament his death more than any of you.
Soon you'll all learn,
that members of his party were behind this cowardly murder.
And I will find each one of them.
'As you can see, Mr. Harun Shah Ali showed up at Dipesh Kumar's funeral.'
'Mother, I know you're not happy with my decision.'
'But I couldn't have backed out of this struggle even if I wanted to.'
'How can I turn a blind eye to injustice, mother?'
This is my son. He was murdered at the city square.
Will you testify?
No, I wasn't there. I didn't see anything.
'Maybe someday you'll play the role of the mother from Gorkhi's novels'
'and your son will play the role of the son,'
'who never compromises with this rotten administration.'

Water.
Hello.
What happened was terrible.
Why are you getting entangled in this?
Deepu shouldn't have returned to Dhiwan in the first place.
Even his party members didn't want him to return.
How can we hold Saheb responsible for everything that happens in Dhiwan?
The truth is Chote Babu,
that nothing happens here without his permission.
Don't worry.
I'll fight till my last breath.
Goodbye.
I guess the loss of her son has made her lose her mind.
Lakhan sir, you put 14 ministers from Bihar on the cabinet's list?
And home ministry to Harun Shah Ali Baig?
Ground politicians should get an opportunity.
When do we march to the President's residence,
to present the claim?
Please watch the TV before presenting the claim.
Turn on the TV.
I've hard evidence of the claims I've been making for many years.
A complete expose of Lakhan Rai's jungle rule.
PRAJATANTRIK PARTY
A man who gave dreams to the poor masses,
of social and economical justice and became the chief minister.
Scammed 90 billion worth of fodder.
This is a full report from the animal husbandry department.
How in the last six years under the reign of Lakhan Rai,
executed joint depredation.
We've filed a petition in the high court.
And we'll meet with the respected Mr. President,
and the Governor and urge them
to immediately suspend Lakhan Rai's government.
Lakhan Rai should start counting backwards now
Thank you.
(Supporters protesting)
This is an effort to crush the voice of the poor and backwards caste.
But I won't let them succeed.
Sending Lakhan Rai alone to jail won't end this struggle.
I've two announcements to make today.
First, starting today
we have no association with central leadership whatsoever.
I will form my own party.
Rashtriya Prajatantrik Party.
Long live... - Rashtriya Prajatantrik Party!
And the second announcement is,
Post of Bihar's chief minister?
Shall be chaired by... Mrs. Phoolmati Devi.
Shall I serve dinner?
You guys eat.
Are you disappointed because you couldn't become a minister?
Or because Mr. Lakhan didn't give you what you deserved?
I asked you earlier.
What price does one have to pay to live like a king?
I never questioned your actions.
But when brother Deepu... - Sana.
His death will always haunt you.
No girl from Dhiwan
will have to quit her education because of school infrastructure.
This school is the first step toward fixing the education system of Dhiwan.
Post this school,
Dhiwan will soon have a hospital and a medical college.
Starting today, there's a new law in Dhiwan.
No doctor in Dhiwan will charge more than 25 rupees from his patient.
Long live - Harun Shah Ali Baig.
Not every job is done for recovery, Dhiren sir.
If it's money you want to make, then use your hotel to do it.
You're having one built, aren't you?
This hospital should be ready before the hotel.
In the heart of Dhiwan.
But the kind of hospital you're imagining,
it's tough to get a piece of land that size.
I've checked the entire blueprint.
This is the only spot.
JP Chowk.
Then take it. What's the problem?
But Saheb, the land belongs to the trader's association.
They all own shops there.
Call everyone.
Hmm?
Thank you.
Hello, Saheb.
Sit. Sit. Have your tea?
I still remember the time you guys came to me the first time.
You all have a big role to play in what I am today.
You're embarrassing us now.
Even after all these years, we're still together.
There is just one reason for it.
Because we all love Dhiwan unconditionally.
Don't we? - Yes...
The time has come to speed up the development of Dhiwan.
And I want your help with it.
Indeed, Saheb.
You'll get our full cooperation.
Show them.
Carefully.
The best hospital in Bihar.
Amazing, Saheb.
The pride of Dhiwan.
It's on your land.
But the blueprint has changed.
There was no place better than JP Chowk in Dhiwan to build this hospital.
The price of land in Dhiwan is 250,000 per sq. ft.
I'm ready to pay you double.
Rs. 5,00,000
Since it's a good deed, I don't want to hurt anyone's sentiments.
These are the documents for your shops.
Think this through and sign it.
Okay.
Chote Babu.
Smile. Smile. Drink your tea.
How could you even think of it, father?
The shop is in our mother's name.
How can we sell it?
Grandpa is still alive.
Saheb has always helped us.
Helped us...
And you want me to refuse him.
Has everyone agreed? - Yes.
Doesn't matter if everyone's agreed. We will not sell this shop.
What should we do?
Refuse him outright.
We don't owe him anything.
Are we going to raise our tone with him?
What did I say, brother?
This is our land...
Will you keep everything?
Of course not. You'll get the first share.
Did they make you sit here, Saheb?
Tell me... what did you want?
I want to meet my sister-in-law.
The chief minister?
Is this about the hospital project?
I heard your file was stalled.
The chief minister is busy.
But how can I help you?
When the chief minister is free,
tell her I was here.
And...all good?
If you need any kind of help, then don't hesitate to tell me.
'The number you've dialled...'
Hello.
'Yes, Saheb.'
Yes, Manoj?
'Saheb, I just met Chote Babu. He isn't agreeing.'
Why isn't he agreeing?
Offer him a million instead.
'Fine.'
Saheb highly respects you,
that's why he offered you double.
He's ready to pay a million.
Saheb is like God to me.
I can give away my life for him.
But I can't give him this land.
My family isn't agreeing to it.
Can't do it.
Don't you get it?
I'll meet with Saheb personally,
and explain to him. He will understand.
You'll meet with Saheb?
You will explain to him?
A***e...
No, abusing. - Shut up!
How dare you say no?
Don't hit my father.
Leave him alone.
Wait.
Rascal!
Move back.
Back.
Stay back.
Asshole!
Leave it. Leave it.
A***e!
Hello.
'Saheb, they poured acid on one of our men.'
What?
'They poured acid on our men. He's in the hospital.'
Who threw acid on him?
'Chote Babu's sons.'
How dare you throw acid?
Who threw acid on him?
Who was it?
People are scared to even look me in the eye.
And you threw acid on my men!
Who threw acid on him?
The name is Harun Shah Ali Baig.
Manoj, get it.
Go get it.
Brother...
Rascal.
No...
Catch the rascal!
- Stop.
Catch the rascal!
When he couldn't be loyal to his best friend,
would never be loyal to you, Chote Babu.
You must fight, Chote Babu.
Let's go file a report.
We won't let any other child of Dhiwan die like this.
Get up, Chote Babu.
Chote Babu Gupta.
You must come to the police station with us.
You've been charged with murder.
There's been a death in his family.
How can you take him to the police station?
The guy you threw acid on last night in your shop is dead.
Two witnesses have taken Chote Babu's name.
That's a lie.
The case is all wrong. Who filed the complaint?
This isn't right.
Chote Babu won't go with you.
This is my evil,
I will have to atone for it.
Chote Babu...
This is wrong.
You aren't doing the right thing.
How many times will you break my trust?
You're as guilty as Harun Shah Ali Baig, Raghav sir.
How do you sleep at night?
Hello, sir.
'Hello, my name is Brijesh Kumar.'
'I want to tell you that Harun Shah Ali Baig and his accomplices,'
'burnt my brothers Satish and Girish alive on the night of August 16, 2001.'
'Hello.'
'My name is Brijesh Kumar.'
'On the night of August 16, 2001 Harun Shah Ali Baig and his men,'
'killed my two brothers with acid.'
'They have also put my father behind bars under a fake murder case.'
'I am going to testify in court,'
'but I fear that they will have me killed too.'
Greetings.
Don't worry, Mr. Lalwani is pretty confident.
He said that the video is weak evidence.
The case won't last.
The best lawyer in the country is defending your case.
Yes.
'We're taking you live to the Supreme Court,'
'where the public prosecutor will announce'
'the court's verdict to the press.'
The three-judge panel of the Supreme Court,
has given credibility to late Brijesh Shah's
video testimony against Harun Shah Ali Baig.
And cancelled his bail application.
Keeping the Dipesh Kumar murder case in mind,
the court has directed Bihar Police to file a charge sheet.
But the court's decision
which will come as a big shocker for Harun Shah Ali Baig,
The court has barred Harun Shah Ali Baig from contesting in elections.
Stay back.
Hey, what are you doing here? - How dare you come here?
Get out!
Yes.
You seem to be in perfect condition.
So you don't need this hospital ward anymore.
I guess you didn't learn anything from what happened with you last time.
I thought he was God.
I even kept a picture of him in my shop.
I thought
he was my protector.
But he destroyed everything.
I promise you.
Come what may,
I won't spare him.
Just give your statement.
HAYAT HOSPITAL. FOUNDER SHAH ALI BAIG.
Long live... - Shah Ali!
How are you, dear?
Stop. You cannot go inside.
Sir is busy. - Open.
Move aside.
Come, sir.
You must come with us to the police station.
He's busy today. Come back tomorrow.
I am not asking, I am telling him.
You've been accused of the murder of Chote Babu's two sons.
I have a warrant.
I said come back tomorrow.
Don't you get it?
Hey...
My name is Harun Shah Ali Baig!
No one can touch me without my permission!
You should listen when you're told once,
otherwise next time you won't be able.
You're educated, aren't you?
Get it out of my way.
Sir, we must give a reply.
In the language they understand.
The entire department is on your side.
This is a slap on the face of the entire department.
Just give the orders. This time it's either us or them.
Goal.
Hello.
Nishant here, sir.
Take my advice and leave the city for a few days.
Because it's impossible to stop them now.
What's the worst he will do? Arrest me?
I'll talk to his seniors. Don't worry.
That's what I am trying to tell you. He's not coming to arrest you.
The force will arrive at your residence by nightfall.
Get out until you have time.
So the main area is covered.
Ravi, I want two jeeps at this entrance.
And keep eight men with you.
Okay? - Yes, sir.
Is everyone ready? - Yes, sir!
Come on, let's go.
Raghav Kumar is coming, with the force.
I guess the slap wasn't enough.
He isn't coming to arrest me.
Everyone be prepared. We must show these guests their place.
Get the boxes.
Come down.
Sana...
Manoj.
Keep Salaam with you.
Open it. Get it out.
Come on, come behind me.
Go out. - Come on, hurry up.
Come on, this way.
Come, come. - Stand guard here.
Sana, I won't let any calamity befall my family.
Don't come out of this room until I don't tell you.
Sana, do you trust me?
Take care of your mother.
Dinesh, stand guard. - Yes, Saheb.
Open it. Get it out.
SUBASH MITTAL. HOME MINISTER.
RAJBHAVAN
Open the gate.
What are you doing, sir?
Mummy.
Charge!
Come on.
Let's go. Let's go.
The f***g door, man. Let's go.
Not this way.
Go that way.
Sir, I think they escaped.
A****e!
BORGANJ, NEPAL BORDER AREA BEGINS.
It's a good thing we came here.
Because sometimes we need distance to see things clearly.
I don't know much,
but I do understand that you respect Lakhanji as your Guru.
So take a few lessons from your Guru.
I don't believe that Lakhanji
or anyone from the chief minister's office,
didn't know about this attack.
Lakhanji only needs you when the elections are close.
Let him come to you this time.
In the last three days,
Dhiwan police have arrested 16 members of Shah Ali Baig's gang,
and killed eight ferocious criminals in the encounter.
We recovered several weapons from their homes and other places,
including AK-47s, several Mausers, Trevors,
and ammunition in large quantities.
Shah Ali Baig is either directly connected to ISI,
or with Dawood Ibrahim's gang.
Dhiwan police have registered eight criminal cases against him.
Shah Ali Baig managed to flee from Dhiwan like a coward,
but he can never return to Dhiwan.
Because the local court has cast him out.
After spending months in jail,
Lakhan Rai has been granted bail in the fodder scam case.
Lakhan Rai's supporters have gathered around to welcome him.
Although his popularity has taken a hit due to the fodder scam...
Those people couldn't see a poor man's son Lakhan making progress.
Now this son of the soil
shall wreak havoc on them.
Now that you're back,
you handle it.
I am not fit for it.
You'll always be dumb.
What's there to do? I am here for you.
Let this continue till the assembly elections,
we'll discuss it after that.
Greetings, brother-in-law.
What's up, hero?
All good, brother-in-law.
How are you?
Heard you've been up to no good behind my back.
Will you eat or are you full?
Where is Shah Ali these days?
(Romantic song plays in the background)
Whenever I hear this song,
I'm confused whether you're happy or stressed.
Salaam has reached Dubai.
He wants to talk to you.
What am I going to say to him?
Is he okay?
I made some sweet for you.
Taste it and tell me how is it.
Whenever you make sweet,
I am confused about
whether we are celebrating the averted danger or inviting one.
I'll get that. - No.
Hold this.
Are you going to invite me in, or do I leave?
Things just dissipated after I went to jail.
Need to fix things.
You know Phoolmati.
She couldn't have handled everything.
You should have thought about it earlier.
Shah Ali,
what happened was wrong?
Whatever the reason behind it, it was wrong.
I apologise.
But the time has come
to fight together.
Six months to go before the elections.
Even I understand the gist of whatever is happening,
whatever the reason may be.
But this time I've some conditions.
Tell me.
You didn't give me any post in your government,
but I want a position in the party.
You're the president,
I'll be the vice-president.
Agreed.
The selection of candidates shall be my decision.
And yes...
I don't want to see Shambhu anywhere on the committee.
And...
All the cases against me should be dismissed.
Don't worry. Happy now?
I've one final condition.
Glory to... - Veer Saheb.
I am back!
And my enemies who ducked into their burrows post my return,
I want to tell them.
If you want to win over a lion,
then wounding him isn't enough.
Either you kill him,
or wait for the day when the lion will return.
And hunt his enemies down one by one.
Long live... - Shah Ali Baig!
'2004.'
'The first assembly elections of the new century.'
'After several complicated coalitions,'
'a new government came into power in the central.'
'I Manmohan Singh, do swear... '
'Lakhan Rai and Shah Ali Baig won from Bihar,'
'and determined to be the strongest supporter of the central government.'
'Lakhan Rai became the Rail Minister,'
'and Shah Ali Baig became the MP.'
'Their entire focus was now on Delhi.'
'But in the 2005 Bihar elections, contradicting all opinion polls,'
'and after 15 years of tough struggle,
'Mukul Kumar finally defeated Lakhan Rai,'
'and became the Chief Minister of Bihar.'
Bye.
I'm just leaving.
I'm coming.
Okay, fine.
I'm Jyoti Verma, SP Vigilance.
And I'm representing Bihar police.
Yes, what can I do for you?
We have an arrest warrant against you.
They knew I wouldn't say no to you.
Can I speak with my lawyer?
You can, sir.
But come along for now.
Let's go then.
'Patna High Court has denied bail to MP Harun Shah Ali Baig,'
'in connection to the '89 murder case.'
'The court's decision will affect other cases against him.'
'This is a big win for Bihar's administration'
'under the leadership of Mukul's government.'
'Seems like Shah Ali Baig will be serving a long time in jail.'
Stop. Stop.
Come, please.
Sir... Shah Ali ... one question.
Look, if Mukul sir thinks he can charge me with bogus cases,
and keep me in jail,
then I feel sorry for him.
I just want to say that this representative
chosen by the masses shall soon return.
Sir...
STATE PRISON DHIWAN
'The Bihar administration's entire machinery,'
'kept Shah Ali Baig tangled in legal matters.'
'But they couldn't make a single charge sheet'
'which pinpointed directly at him.'
'On one end, was Shah Ali Baig's reputation'
'which he built over the years,'
'and at the other was Mukul Kumar's years of relentless challenging it.'
'Years kept changing.'
'They couldn't find any evidence, or make bail.'
'Every day spent in jail,'
'was weakening Shah Ali Baig's political prowess.'
'Brijesh's video testimony tipped the scale'
'in the Bihar government's favour,'
'But elections have the power to change every equation.'
This time I couldn't do much.
My hands are tied.
All the calculations have gone for a toss.
You know, don't you?
I am listening, go on.
Let the elections get over.
I will fix everything post elections.
And before the elections?
Saheb, you cannot run for elections this time.
And I cannot nominate anyone in your place.
So we've come to a decision,
in this mega coalition,
Dhiwan constituency will go to Mukul.
I can understand you're helplessness.
What can you do?
But...
my existence depends on winning the elections.
If I can run for the elections,
then I will be of no use to anyone.
Once my roots are chopped,
you know what will happen to me.
So it's decided that Dhiwan stays with me.
But how is that possible, Saheb?
I cannot run for elections,
but I can keep Dhiwan.
How?
Sana will run for elections in my place.
Goodbye.
HAYAT HOSPITAL FOUNDER SHAH ALI BAIG
I came immediately after I heard the news.
Was wondering what happened to you.
Are you feeling bad seeing me alive?
Things would become chaotic if something happens to you.
I had no choice except for coming here.
Hello, sister-in-law.
Greetings.
Hello, sister-in-law.
How are you?
Take a good look.
What can happen to me? I am absolutely fine.
I will not run for elections.
I've seen this world. Things that happen here.
I can't be a part of this world.
What options do we have, Sana?
Shall I let them do what they are doing?
Do you know what that means?
Look, Sana, I cannot trust anyone else at this moment.
Only you can fight for me.
Saheb, we must go now.
My job is at stake.
What happened?
A terrible thing has happened, Saheb.
Manoj killed that reporter Rajnandan.
Who was it? - Don't know.
Check the entire place properly from top to bottom.
What's going on here?
We have a search warrant, madam.
Come on, everyone. Search the house.
Check every corner.
Manoj Singh is the main accused in the Rajnandan murder case.
He's really close to you guys.
He isn't here.
Stop this circus.
The circus hasn't even started, madam.
There is no one here, sir.
No one, sir.
There is no one.
Check madam's room as well.
What are you waiting for?
Go inside and check. - Yes, sir.
Madam, the sooner we find Manoj Singh, the better for you.
Otherwise, your husband will be the co-accused in this case.
Things will get worse for you.
He isn't here.
Think about what I said.
Saheb, call for you.
Hello.
Did you have Rajnandan murdered?
No.
The police came home.
Sana, this is a jungle.
Everyone's lying in wait for their prey.
Only the mighty will survive.
You are pretty sensible.
SANA ALI BAIG AND THE POWER OF TRUST, NEW IDEAS NEW DEVELOPMENT
KEEP FIGHTING SANA, YOU HAVE OUR SUPPORT
Over the years,
you've voted for my husband Harun Shah Ali Baig.
You've always given him your full support.
But now he is in jail.
My son gave his life here.
You all know who killed him.
The three sons of Chote Babu who made an honest living,
was publicly murdered by you all know who.
He has been banned from running for elections
implicating him with fake and imaginary cases.
And yet, last night he said to me,
"we must save Dhiwan".
If you want to save Dhiwan,
then we must defeat Harun Shah Ali Baig.
Long live... - Sunil Yadav!
Long live... - Sana Ali Baig!
Glory to... - Mega coalition!
'With the victory of the mega coalition,'
'celebrations are ensuing in Mukul and Lakhan camps.'
'Although Lakhan Rai's party emerged as the biggest party.'
'We need to wait and watch,'
'who will be given the post of the chief minister.'
'Will Mukul Kumar take a backseat?'
'And nominate Lakhan Rai's party for the chief minister.'
'Or will he take the reins of Bihar again?'
'You can witness the celebrations behind me.'
Your calculation went awry this time.
The press and masses still want to see me as the chief minister.
Don't they?
You only look good on TV now.
You'll be the next chief minister.
Because I gave you my word.
I will choose the deputy chief minister.
I will also keep finance and irrigation.
I won't compromise on that.
I have no choice other than to say yes.
Don't mention fodder.
'It's crucial for MP and MLA Harun Shah Ali Baig,'
'to win this election.' - What about Shah Ali Baig?
'The people of Dhiwan have showered their love on him as always'
'Winning with a landslide of votes'
'Sana Ali Baig has become the new MLA of Dhiwan.'
Jai Hind, sir.
Jai Hind.
What's the update, Raghav?
Waiting for your orders, sir.
This is the right time, hit the hammer on the nail.
If we can get a conviction before the swear-in ceremony,
then, that will be awesome.
Consider it done, sir.
'At one end, preparations for'
'Mukul Kumar's swear-in are in full swing.'
'and at the other end, arrangements are being made'
'to tighten the noose around his arch enemy Harun Shah Ali Baig.'
'Sadanand Singh, what judgement will the supreme court'
'announce against Harun Shah Ali Baig?'
'We've filed a very elaborate charge sheet.'
PLEASE DON'T PREACH, EVERYONE HERE IS WISE.
'The Supreme court has decided to announce'
'the verdict next week on the 13th.'
'I cannot make any assumptions about the court's judgement.'
'But we will hope for the strictest punishment against him.'
'As per our correspondent's update who is reporting from... '
It is time.
Okay.
What brings you here so unexpectedly?
Come, sit.
Had you informed earlier, I would've prepared a meal.
No, I won't stay that long.
Tell me.
Just a minute.
Come inside.
Greetings.
Greetings, Lakhan sir.
I want all of you to run for elections?
Against the party?
Independently.
There is no problem with that.
All of you file for candidacy on the same day.
This should come as a huge shock to them.
So that they don't repeat this mistake again in the future.
You know who they are,
I won't waste time introducing them.
You must be counting them in your coalition government.
But they all won independently,
hence, they can be inducted into any party.
But Saheb has clearly said,
don't even think about going anywhere else.
But they all have a condition,
and only you can fulfil it.
Get Shah Ali out of jail.
That must be the condition.
Yes.
It's not as easy as you think.
I wouldn't have troubled you if it was easy.
See you.
Next time we'll come together to have lunch.
'MP Harun Shah Ali Baig who has been serving time in jail,'
'for the last five years will finally be released.'
'The supreme court announced this important judgement.'
POLITICS OF FEAR SHALL RESUME AGAIN.
Consider it a political vulnerability.
Shah Ali Baig was in the weakest phase of his life,
and what helplessness are you talking about?
His wife won the elections.
Eight MLAs won the elections from his camp.
And they all demand his bail,
otherwise, they won't support us.
And you claim he's in the weakest phase of his life.
So why was it,
kept a secret from me?
Would you have agreed?
Look, it was a sudden decision.
The entire charge sheet had to be changed.
Okay, sir.
I've understood your political vulnerability.
But even I have a vulnerability, sir.
I don't know about you,
but I cannot see Shah Ali Baig roam free in Dhiwan.
I will shoot him at sight.
But that could be dangerous for your rule book,
and your political vulnerability.
So I'll free you from both situations.
I would like to quit my post, sir.
Why would you quit?
Once this government comes in motion,
we'll deal with this Baig...
My family was a big believer of Gandhiji.
We were never dishonest,
never harmed anyone,
and never spoke ill of anyone.
But when the government of the state doesn't believe in Gandhiji,
we're bound to be deemed as lunatics.
Fine,
let's end this struggle.
Hello.
Salaam wished to see you.
So I called him home.
He will arrive tomorrow.
It was your decision to send him away,
Hence, the decision to call him back should also be yours.
It's been a while since I last saw him.
He'll be the first thing you see when you come out.
I was thinking of going straight to our old house after coming out.
As you wish, Saheb.
Long live... - Shah Ali!
We're right outside Dhiwan jail.
As you can see, preparations to welcome,
Harun Shah Ali Baig are in full swing.
His supporters have flocked to the spot,
and want to leave no stone unturned in welcoming their Saheb.
Just a minute, sir.
It was grey hair.
KEEP FIGHTING SAHEB, YOU HAVE OUR SUPPORT
STATE PRISON DHIWAN
[indistinct chatter]
Long live... - Shah Ali!
How are you feeling now,
when Harun Shah Ali is finally coming out of jail after all these years?
Feels like he's returning after his exile.
The only difference being it was his exile and trial.
And succeeded in both.
As you saw, Harun Shah Ali Baig's wife Sana Shah Ali Baig claims
she has faith in the justice system.
'When the question of Harun Shah Ali baig's bail came up... '
SAHEB'S WELCOME.
Long live... - Shah Ali!
Saheb. Saheb.
Let me go.
Let him come. Come on.
Saheb. - What happened?
I wanted to apologise.
It's alright. - I've done great evil.
I want to atone for it.
Forgive me. - It's alright.
Forgive me.
Long live... - Shah Ali!

SAHEB PASSES AWAY.

"Those who forget..."
