Raees (रईस)

Light a fire

Fire it up

Work it up

Hey kids! How are you?

All good? - All good

You didn't even greet me, Raees

Got down straight to work, eh? - Greetings!

Greetings!

Who gathered the most today? - We brought you the entire market

First-class!

Hey, add some more chemical here

Gujarat

A State in Independent India where every day is a 'dry day’

Dry day means no trading of liquor

The penalty for selling liquor is ten years imprisonment

However, prohibit/on begets rebel/ion

Even today Gujarat is considered a liquor-free State

Yet‘, illegal liquor Worth 250 billion is sold here every year

This would've been impossible if it weren '1‘ for Raees

Take a bath, Raees

From Umbergaon to Kutch,

the longest coastline of India stretching 1600 kilometres

is part of our Gujarat

Raees, you read

Read!

Gujarat...

In the north of Gujarat... - Come here

I don't want to, but you boys compel me to beat you

Hush

Read now

II)

R. - Very good

Step down, son

Nothing to worry, Aminaben

Raees‘ eyesight is weak. He just needs glasses

I hope it's not urgent...?

Ammi, I won't go to school without glasses

Relax. - Why?

Is it a new idea to bunk school?

For his weak eyesight, the kid is quite sharp

I can't see what's written on the board. Miss Ratna beats me

What are you saying? She hits my tiger?

How much will it cost?

Don't worry about the money, Aminaben

You can pay me later

No, doctor. I don't want him to have a borrowed vision,

but a clear one

We'll get it done in a few days

If I sense trouble, I'll holler 'Bhaijaan'

That's your cue

Make it fast

Bhafiaan!

Bhafiaan!

Bhafiaan! - Hey!

Who's there?

Are you stealing the spectacles?

Bhafiaan!

Are you stealing the glasses?

Stop, you thief! - Hail Gandhiji!

Stop!

Idiot. Where did you get this frame from?

From Gandhiji. - Gandhiji?

It won't work

Nope

Why don't you come tomorrow?

I'll make real glasses for you. G0 on

I have no money

No money?

2 rupees fees is a must

Rule is rule, no?

Take it and make the payment. Problem solved

Give me five!

Go on... hey, idiot

Come back here

Give Gandhiji back his frame

He needs it more

Go on

It's awesome, Sadiq. Just like binoculars!

Look! Gandhiji is smiling

Qasim is cleaning the car

Chakor is inflating the tyres

Look! The cops are going to raid llyas‘ liquor den

Our business is in danger, Sadiq. Let's hurry

Jamil, clean it up. Clear everything

Boxes, bottles... hide everything!

Leave nothing outside! Hurry up!

Quick!

No one escapes! - Greetings!

Spread out! - Not again!

Find out where he's hidden the liquor! - Are you looking for some treasure?

Check the sacks! - There's nothing, sir

Open it! - What are you looking for?

Hurry up! Search well. Anything there?

You! Come here

You like to whistle, eh?

Shall I make you whistle? What say?

Hey!

Why did you slap him? - Ask him

Ask him why I slapped him

What's inside? What is it?

Goods. It's my business. - Goods?

Or, is it fodder for riots?

It is a ruse for your shady business, isn't it?

Being a cop is yourjob, selling scrap is my business

Get this loud and clear

For us, no business is small

And no faith is greater than business

140 people died in Fatehpura last night after drinking spurious liquor

Police arrested Ilyas, a bootlegger

ls it true that no business is small?

And no faith greater than business?

It's true

As long as it doesn't harm anyone

Get that?

Sleep

Speak up, buddy. What's the plan?

How do we earn now? - We'll sell liquor

Fool. llyas is in jail. Do you also plan to go?

The cops arrest those who sell hooch, not imported liquor

$0?

We'll work for Jairaj Seth

He sells imported liquor

It's difficult, Amit

But I'll give it one last try for you

Bye. Chandu!

What's the problem?

Seth, roadblocks are set up everywhere. Delivery is impossible today

Amit called thrice... - What if I deliver?

Who's he? - Both of them used to work for llyas

Six bottles

Can you deliver?

I'll take 3 bucks per bottle. - Hey, Four-eyes

Are you trying to extort? - Hey!

Don't you call me Four-eyes! - For those thick glasses,

what else do I call you, Four-eyes? - I told you not to call me Four-eyes!

Freaking Four-eyes!

Deal

3 rupees per bottle

Hey, give me the bottles

Never call me Four-eyes!

Get that?

Where to? - I live here

Show me your licence. - It's at home

Check his licence

Want to check, sir? - Beat it!

Employ the boy from tomorrow

He's as shrewd as a merchant and as fearless as a warrior

Greetings, Seth

Sadiq, the cops are causing trouble at Narol Chowkdi

Tell Raees to get the consignment cleared. - I'll see to it

Down!

Up!

Down!

Up! What's so funny?

Here's your cut

Release the stuff

That settles it. Move it

Let it go! - Well,

it isn't settled yet

What's up, bro?

Come over here

Your pockets were empty, I filled them. - Right

You gave me a flat, now fix it

That'|| settle it

How can I fix it? - lnflate it

How can I?

Blow into it. C'mon!

D0 it!

Be ethical in business. It saves time and honour

Blow it

We unload his stuff, we manage his warehouses

and he takes all the profit! Get some onions

How long are we to work our tails off for Jairaj?

Let's set up our own business

We are not cut out for business

Enjoy the bird in hand

We are Gujaratis. Business runs in our blood

In this business, we need backing, not blood

Not backing

Guts

You forgot Jairaj's words

As fearless as a warrior, as shrewd as a merchant

I've got it all

I'll win this one too, Ujjwalbhai

Take a look now, Ramnikbhai. - I'll go one more round blind

I'll check mine. - Greetings, Seth

Greetings

You bring me good luck, my Ace

You're funny, Seth

Not aces

We're mere servants

My tiger‘s not in the mood

What's wrong?

Seth, I've been working for years under you

I want to set up my own business now

Business, why?

I'll hike your salary

EnjOY

Sadiq, reason with him

I tried, Seth
