That's the reason Julius Caesar has quoted,...
Let me be surrounded by fat people.
I'm honoured that you took out time to attend my party.
For nothing would I've missed such a great event of your life?
There'll be a still greater event which you'll have to manage totally.
And what's that?
- Whose? - Ruby's Ceazarian.
Today is the engagement? Have things already gone that far?
Our engagement will lead to the marriage.
Then she'll conceive.
And because of advanced age it'll be a ceasarian.
And you are the best for ceasarian operations.
So you've to perform this operation.
Why hasn't the head-master arrived as yet?
Greetings!
- Congratulations! - Please take a seat.
Where is Sudhir?
- Where is the would-be bride? - She's getting dressed.
I'll bring her.
You are looking mind blowing!
- Now exchange garlands. - We don't have to this.
We have to, darling.
Darling, while I organise everything you keep them company.
Sawant, make 4 drinks.
What are you doing here? Scoot off.
- Mr Hiralal, you are over-exited. - Not at all.
Sit, I'll relate to you all a incident on excitement.
Hiralal, play some music.
Abdul, play the music.
Why have the lights gone off?
Hurry up before we bang into each other and break things.
Where is your whip?
What a bad timing for the lights to go off?
Repair the fuse immediately.
The lights have come!
- What had gone wrong? - The fuse was blown off.
- Will it happen again? - No.
Where is Ruby?
- Darling, what is the matter? - I felt slightly giddy.
- Are you all right? - Please take me to my room.
Prashant, will you please come?
- I'm here. - Oh!
Why did you call me at this unearthly hour?
- Where were you since morning? - Did you call me to ask this?
No, I've other queries too.
How did the lights go off at the party last night?
How would I know that?
What did you talk with Ruby Dutt's servant? What for did you pay him?
I must applaud your keen eye.
You've caught me red-handed. And I thought I was very clever.
Actually, it was I who had got the lights switched off.
- Why? - I wanted to see Ruby's whip.
As soon as the lights went off I took her in my arms.
- Didn't she scream? - She tried but I shut her up.
- How? - Try figuring it out.
How must I've shut her up when my hands were occupied?
My lips and mouth were free.
I shut her up took her to her bedroom, threw her on the bed,...
and asked her about her whip.
- You must apologize. - To whom?
- To me. - Why you?
Imagine me to be her and apologize to me.
- You really want me to do that? - Yes.
That I must do to you what I did to her.
You could stoop so slow!
She's your friend's fiance.
To do it with your friend's fiance,...
I trusted you immensely but you've marred that trust.
Get out of here and never come here again.
I'll go and never return but I've a request to make.
- Come with me. - Where?
Where have you brought me? This is a mental asylum.
Don't ask questions and just be a mute witness.
- Who is it? - I'm Sudhir.
You should've been christened Adhir instead of Sudhir.
And I should've been christened Kartab means a donkey.
You've started it again, brother. You're so educated,...
That hardly helps.
Money is the main criteria and not education.
That's the reason they whipped me and unleashed their dog on me.
That's the reason everyone accepted Ruby Dutt's statement over mine.
But Sudhir, at least you trust me?
- Yes, brother. - So why aren't you avenging it?
I will surely avenge it.
Take a whip along and hit her on the back just as she had hit me.
They hit me very hard.
I was teaching her history.
History created kings but Emperor Ashoka was one who created history.
Other rulers presented themselves in his court.
How many wives did he have? I asked how many wives did he have?
I've heard that he had several mistresses.
- Yes, so I was saying that,... - Don't evade answering me.
Why does a man need a mistress when he has a wife?
- The reason is lust. - You mean physical desire?
Yes.
I've heard this desire is insatiable.
- You've heard right. - So what's the cure for it?
- You should not think about it. - What if you don't succeed?
Look, Ruby,...
I think it's worm. Please unzip my dress.
Why aren't you attracted to me? Am I not beautiful?
- It is not so. - What makes you so arrogant?
Several guys vie for my attention but I don't respond to them.
I'm attracted to you but you don't respond to me.
- Talk about yourself. - Ruby, listen to me.
- I.... - What's going on here?
- Father, he tried to molest me. - No!
- How dare you! - But,...
- Father, you saved me from him. - What are you saying, Ruby?
You over-stepped your limits, you rouge.
Despite being an ordinary teacher you dared to flirt with my daughter.
No!
Sudhir, you must avenge me.
You must certainly take revenge.
I'm sorry, Sudhir.
Brother's been relating the same tale to me for the past 15 years.
You can understand the torture he must've suffered at Ruby's hands,...
that he thinks only of revenge.
Will revenge bring back brother's lost years?
- Forget about revenge. - No! Never!
I believe in eye for eye.
I can't be at peace till I avenge my insults.
Ruby Dutt's not my friend's fiance but she's wronged my brother.
And if for this you want to sever ties with me you're free to do so.
Let's go home.
Kavita, please keep this Rs 40,000 safely.
Where do you get so much money?
Our tragedy is that no man is a hero in his wife's eyes.
Our nursing home is always booked.
People make the bookings 3 months in advance.
But why don't you rather deposit this money in the bank?
This is a common practice. Keep it.
Darling, everything is fine. Today evening at 7.30,...
come over to my place with a few of your belongings.
Then we'll leave this place to begin a new life together.
But, sweetheart, be punctual.
You've assured to spring a surprise on me that will alter my life.
- But time is passing by. - Be patient.
Suspense makes my blood pressure rise.
But after this suspense your blood pressure will always remain normal.
- Then shake hands. - For now just be calm.
I'll be calm only when I marry.
- You love her immensely? - You'll never be able to fathom.
I'll carve her wedding band with my own blood.
- Does she also reciprocate equally? - Don't be ridiculous.
She keeps telling that she can't stay away from me even for a minute.
Now, get ready for the surprise. Go and hide there.
- You've come! - Darling, I'm ready.
- Where will you take me? - Think it over carefully.
Are you sure you really want to elope with me?
I can't live without you.
Are you really not in love with Hiralal?
How can anyone love a dumb nit-wit?
Let's go.
I've no plans of going anywhere with you, Ms Ruby Dutt.
Sudhir, don't joke. That fool may come looking for us.
At least thank me.
I don't want to humiliate you by thanking you.
Now I've seen through you.
All this while you were only stringing me.
Do you only have the right to string people?
- You! - Calm down.
Do you know anyone called Adhir Roy?
Do you remember him? I'm his younger brother.
Do you know that now he's the inmate of a mental asylum?
And he's there since the day your father whipped him.
And unleashed his dog on him.
And do you know what he tells every time I visit him?
He's thirsts for revenge.
- So this was your revenge? - Yes.
Though I've not qualified from America,...
I share the same views.
Most of the ceasarian operations done here are normal cases.
So I wonder why Dr Chaturvedi insists on ceasarians?
He does it for money.
A ceasarian operation means more money.
This is a big racket and we've decided to quit this place.
We'd taken the Hippocratic oath to serve.
- But here we are selling ourselves. - Why are you saying so?
You must've read about legal abortions for a pittance.
So why are abortions so expensive here?
They are charged heavily because they're helpless.
Unwed or amoral married women cough up the money for anonymity.
Check the register and you'll know that all names are fictitious.
And don't think that Dr.Chaturvedi is ignorant about it.
Laxmi, attend to the door.
- Is Madame at home? - Yes.
Tell her that Nandini Malhotra has come.
Nandini, do come in and sit.
- What's the matter? - I thought I'll write to you.
Then I thought I'd rather tell you personally.
What is it?
You must've realized the nursing home has prospered in a short while.
But have you spared a thought for the reason behind it?
I've written in the letter too that Dr Chaturvedi has abused his work.
Can you prove this accusation?
The biggest proof is that I've come personally to inform you about it.
I can name 2 doctors who have resigned due to this.
I can name a few girls too.
But why'd they reveal a secret they came to hide in our nursing home?
But it was my duty to inform you.
But it makes no difference if you believe or ignore it.
I've your hand written letter,...
which can be used against you in a defamation suit.
And you'll be maligned.
I don't fear being maligned because I've already experienced it.
You might recollect that a girl from your college had eloped with a boy.
It created a big scandal. And I was that girl.
And the boy was the notorious playboy Vikram Sareen.
I wanted to marry him and have kids.
But instead I became a unwed mother.
I wanted to bear that child but my pleas went unheard.
A handsome amount was spent on a specialist.
And I was told that the doctor will only examine me.
I was made unconscious and on regaining consciousness,...
I realized that they had killed my child.
And instead I faced humiliation.
So, legal matters don't unnerve me.
But I'm sure that your husband who owns a flourishing nursing home,...
won't want any scandal attached to his name.
Take this diary.
There's a lot of malpractice going on in this nursing home.
This diary bears it all along with a few names & case histories too.
I don't want any other girl to undergo what I underwent.
So make your husband see sense.
Being beautiful and chaste you can make him see sense.
That's all I want to say.
I'm Vikram Sareen and I had an appointment with Dr Chaturvedi.
Please wait here while I inform him.
A Vikram Sareen has come for you.
He says he has an appointment with you.
Please come. Go upstairs from here.
I've examined your patient and she's pregnant.
She's already 5 months pregnant.
And I can't risk an abortion at this stage.
This is a question of this girl and my family's honor.
The girl is unwed and will commit suicide if you don't do the abortion.
So the abortion is a must.
If you won't do it some other doctor will do it.
Name your price.
Okay, get her admitted.
- And fill up the form. - Thanks, doctor.
- What are you doing here? - I'm feeling suffocated here.
Take me away from here.
- What's the matter? - I'd told you about my past.
The stigma which I tried to escape, is again hounding me.
Please save me from this nursing home.
I'd warned you about the risk involved.
I'll give you the death certificate.
Take the dead body and cremate it immediately.
- You informed the police? - I did nothing wrong.
Sudhir, the man who killed my unborn child and ruined me,...
has killed another innocent girl too.
And Dr Chaturvedi is responsible for that death.
And he was paid Rs 15,000 for it.
Sudhir, I'd informed you about the workings of this nursing home.
I'd even informed Ms Kavita and gave her the diary,...
which has all information about the happenings of the nursing home.
But yet you took no action.
The diary with proof against Prashant is with Kavita?
- Yes. - It should've been with us.
Is the operation file in the nursing home?
- Yes. - We must keep it in our custody.
Only then will I've all the proof. Come along.
Here it is.
Are you feeling all right?
- I've a slight headache. - Are you running a fever?
No, I only have a slight headache.
What? How did it happen?
Who informed them? I'm coming immediately.
- What's the matter? - An emergency case has come up.
I'm Mrs Chaturvedi speaking? Can you tell me what's happening?
A phone call came and then Dr Chaturvedi left with a worried look.
I'd only made that call. There's a bad news.
There was an operation at 6o'clock.
But the patient died on the operation table.
When her parents were about to cremate her,...
the police came and took custody of the dead body.
- They've taken it for post-mortem. - Inform Sudhir Roy immediately.
I tried but was unable to contact him.
But he's aware of the incident.
Because he came half an hour after the incident,...
and went away somewhere with Ms Malhotra.
- Can you tell me ... - I'm sorry.
Ms Sushila, remove the case file and burn it immediately.
But, Dr Roy has already taken that file.
Why and when?
He came half an hour after you left.
And then went out with Ms Malhotra.
Then he came again and took the file from the office.
Why did you allow him to take the file?
How could I've stopped him as he's your partner?
And he also has the duplicate key to the locker.
Now I know who informed the police.
- Can I speak to Dr Sudhir Roy? - I'm here.
Why are you staring at me?
- Don't you know? - Don't I know what?
Don't act innocent. You had gone with Nandini to the nursing home.
Oh, so you are referring to that case.
This was coming. And besides, Prashant is not a child.
One can either lose or win a battle.
The game is interesting only because it is risky.
I always thought I could depend on you in times of a crisis.
That's the reason I'm here. We must act cautiously.
Fetch me a cup of tea while I do some thinking.
What are you doing here?
- I'm trying to find the diary. - Which diary?
The one which Nandini gave you about Prashant's doings.
- Get lost! - Kavita, don't be stubborn.
- I want that diary. - I said, get lost!
What a diary! It's loaded with evidences.
You are remarkable, Dr Chaturvedi!
I thought you were an angel but I now realize,...
That I'm a devil.
So don't ever try to cross my path.
Give me the keys of the cupboard.
Today I realize the significance of your remark,...
that you don't spare the person who snatches your possessions.
Since you couldn't get me you are seeking revenge, isn't it?
You took so long to comprehend such a simple matter.
Couldn't you read my frustrations at losing you on my face?
Didn't you read your ruin in my eyes?
- What woman are you ! - Don't you feel gratitude?
You've lived off us.
Tears can melt man but not a devil, Mrs Prashant Chaturvedi.
So, don't waste your tears.
The police has arrested Dr Chaturvedi.
- Is Dr Chaturvedi,... - Yes, Prashant is arrested.
But being an equal partner I too can be arrested.
So I don't want any witnesses to be around.
Take this money and leave Bombay for good.
Why? I won't leave!
I want to witness Dr Chaturvedi's shame when he's proclaimed guilty.
You sound very excited.
I'll have to do something to calm you.
- I'll give you an injection. - What injection is this?
This is a simple injection without any medicine.
This only contains an air bubble.
I'll prick your vein and release a small air bubble,...
which will slowly and stealthily move towards your heart.
- And then you're done for. - No, Sudhir!
It'll cause you no inconvenience.
And all evidences against me will be squashed.
Now what have you come for? My body?
You! The police released you?
Yes. So much has transpired.
I was about to accept the blame when Sudhir came.
Always ready to accept the cross of everyone's blame.
How long will you take my blame on yourself?
I'd had enough of your good Samaritan act.
If you're so keen to be punished then commit the crimes yourself.
Who are you?
My mention is in the old police records.
Anyway, I'm Dr Sudhir Roy.
I'm a partner at Neo Nursing Home and am a child specialist.
But I've yet not forgotten my days of poverty.
So I want to get rich by hook or by crook.
So without his knowledge I've been conducting illegal abortions.
I've been charging as per the client's ability to pay,...
as unwed mothers are still a taboo.
It was I who performed the operation on the girl who died.
I'll never allow this.
This is the case file which bears my signature.
And this is the Rs15,000 which I accepted for this case.
Inspector, he's lying.
I accept to my crime and surrender myself to the law.
He signed on the death certificate to save me.
Do you realize the implications of your confession?
I've found out that I'll be imprisoned for 10-15 years.
And I'll never be able to practice medicine again.
But I won't let him use me to prove his greatness.
Sudhir, l....
I've had enough of living off you all.
Now I want to lead my own life even if it's in jail.
- Can I speak to him in private? - Certainly.
What act is this?
It's you who are acting since your return from America?
And ignored me. So, I was compelled to intervene.
Prashant, apologize to Sakhi on my behalf.
Tell her I did what I did to save the family honor.
I took the diary and money to erase all evidences.
So, I even made Nandini flee from Bombay.
Prashant, the greed for money must've tired you. So go home.
I want to live in peace with my conscious.
And so I want to pay for my deeds.
What could be worse than living with the fact,...
all your life that I'm paying for your deeds.
Go home.
He repaid my obligations to him but now I'm at a loose end.
Oh God!
You look like an angel in this sari.
You repaid all your obligations.
But I was under nobody's obligation.
So, now how am I to survive in that house?
You really feel very close to me, isn't it, Sakhi?
You'll never realize the depth of my closeness to you.
Then listen, if I've ever felt close to any girl,...
and respected her, then it is you.
But the day you lose Prashant you'll lose me as well.
I agree Prashant was waylaid but even you are at fault.
As a wife your love could've made him see sense.
This is as much your defeat as it is Prashant's.
In our society, money is invaluable.
Sakhi, take him away from here.
Away from the shackles of our conservative society.
There he'll re-discover himself and then everything will be fine.
And on my release, where else can I go,...
with this stigma attached to my name?
Besides, except you both I've nobody to call my own.
And I want to see you both well adjusted on my return.
And a house seems empty without a child's laughter.
- Mother! - You've come, son!
Mother, father told me that we're going into town to fetch uncle.
- Yes, son. - I want to see an aeroplane.
Because I want to become a pilot when I grow-up.
Son, try to follow in your uncle's foot steps.
