Come on.
RV, what're you doing?
Don't slow down! What are you doing?
RV!
Shona?
I'm fine. I'm fine. Hey... Shona, don't worry.
I lost the race deliberately.
If I'd won after a gap of a year...
...then people would have thought...
...that it was fixed... that RV doesn't ever lose.
Watch me. I'm going to break my own record in the next race. Okay?
Hey! We're home! Hi guys!
Daddy, Bruno & Champ had a race. And Bruno won.
Bruno is a cheater!
Daddy, what happened in your race?
Guess what's in my left hand?
A book for me.
Wrong!
But that's your right hand!
Oops! Guess what's in my right hand?
My car! - - Yes!
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Princess, see my car!
Champ, see my laptop!
Wow! This is a lovely car.
Thank you, Papa!
Yes. Are there batteries in the car?
Daddy... race? What happened?
Who wants to play hide-and-seek?
Me! - I will hide first!
Okay Champ, you hide first.
Come on Bruno, let's hide.
Okay Champ, go hide fast. Mama you also hide.
How'd I do?
Ninety seconds less than your worst timing.
Okay time me again, one last time.
It's no use.
Come on RV, I know you can do it.
What a tragedy! Yes?
Sir, Rusty Finkelstein is here.
Send him in. - Yes sir.
Rockingham 2001! I look terrible in this picture.
No RV, you look smashing.
Yeah! I don't think so.
Harry? Is everything all right? Harry?
They've fired you.
Why are you joking?
RV, this is not a joke.
They've removed you from the team.
How can they remove me like this?
Billy said he gave you ten races to prove yourself.
You should have come at least 2nd or 3rd if not 1 st.
But you came last in every race.
I know. I've come last in ten races...
...but I've also come 1 st in 50 races!
Let me talk to Billy.
It's no use. He doesn't even want to meet you.
He doesn't want to meet me?
Sorry RV, the boss is in a meeting.
To hell with the contract! To hell with Speeding Saddles...
...and to hell with Billy!
Come on, let's go get a beer.
Carry on. I've got some work here.
What work do you have here now?
I'm the manager of this team.
RV is the team! If I'm not here then...
...how can there even be a team?
Billy has signed on Rusty.
Rusty! You're going to work with Rusty...?
What can I do, RV? I have a family too.
My father's retired. I've got three sisters.
I have to send some money back home.
I have some responsibilities too.
I'm sorry RV. I can't leave this job.
I'm not telling you to retire. We'll make our own team.
We'll get investors just like that!
Investors will give you money but they can't give you speed.
OK look, I know I've slowed down a little.
But you're there. You'll solve this problem.
What do you think I've been trying to do for the last three months?
But now your problem can't be solved.
Every sportsman does better and better and then he peaks.
But after that he has nowhere to go but down.
The wise person is the one who retires before going down.
Accept it RV. Retire... gracefully.
People might forget these ten races...
...but they will remember the speed king.
Hang on, hang on. You're speaking as...
...the manager of...
...the Speeding Saddles, aren't you?
You're afraid that I might come back to the tracks...
...and defeat Rusty, right?
And that's why you want me to retire.
Come on, my friend. - Any team will hire me, just like that.
Then we'll meet on the tracks... as rivals.
And then I'll show how much speed is still left in me.
You're like my brother. That's why I'm advising you.
Just shut up!
#
if you're ever faced with sorrow...
...don't let it get you down
Ta ra ra ra rum. Ta ra rum pum.
Don't ever stop believing that
happiness will come around
Ta ra ra ra rum. Ta ra rum pum.
What's a day not followed by night
what's a journey with no goal in sight
smile in the face of sorrow and sing
Ta ra ra ra rum. Ta ra rum pum.
Hang on! Stop! Stop! Hey! What are you guys doing?
Where are you taking my car? - Pay back the loan, take back your car.
One year has gone by. We haven't earned a single dollar.
Our bank balance is almost zero.
All the credit cards have been cancelled.
We're lucky the phones are working...
...we have water and electricity.
Although soon we won't need those either.
Why? - House loan? Installments? Six months!
So big deal! We can sell some things and...
We can't sell anything! We don't own anything.
Everything has been bought on loans...
...or with the credit cards.
The furniture, the carpet, the curtains, our clothes...
...your suit and even your shoes.
OK, OK, we've bought everything on loan.
It takes some time to repay it, right?
So? It's not like they're going to throw us out of our house
They can't do that!
If there's ever a lack in life
if your eyes ever moisten with strife
don't you shed a single tear
don't be sad,
don't give up on the world
let it not shake you
hurt you or ache you
laugh and proclaim to the world
that the days of sunshine...
...will be here again
seasons will go and come
Ta ra ra ra rum. Ta ra rum pum.
Yay! We're poor!
Idiot, it's a bad thing to be poor.
Daddy, I don't want to be poor.
It's not a bad thing. It will get a bit difficult...
...but it's not a bad thing to be poor.
If we're poor then I'll have to leave school...
...l'll have to leave Mrs Peggy.
No you won't. Never. We only have to act like we're poor.
It's like a game. Right? - Yes.
Yay! It's a game! It's a game!
Which game?
It's called, 'Don't Worry Be Happy'.
What kind of a game is that?
It's a realty show, Princess, for TV.
Are we going to be on TV? - Yes.
What's a learity show?
Reality, not learity. There are many teams and...
...they have to live in a weird place...
...like on an island, a haunted house or a jungle.
And there are hidden cameras which...
...keep shooting all the teams.
The best team wins. Simple!
Where will we have to live?
In a small house. Just like the poor people.
And we'll have just 2000 dollars to spend.
But we're not allowed to be sad. Like this.
Someone will be watching us...
...through the hidden cameras all the time.
And if they see us like this... then we're out!
We shall always have to be happy. Like this.
And the team which is the happiest...
...for the most number of days...
...within the 2000 dollars limit will be the winners! OK?
Who wants to play, 'Don't Worry Be Happy'?
Promise it's a game and school...?
You won't have to leave. I promise.
Show your tongue?
Black or pink? - Pink.
Okay.
Let storms blow with all their might
your flame may flicker, don't turn out that light
through the darkest night
through wrong and right
we need to keep on moving
however hard it might get
exhale your fear with every breath
I always say although
the clouds may rumble over,
let the sun shine through and hum
Mama, we will return soon, isn't it?
Yes. As soon as the game is over, we will return home.
Home. - Sweet home.
Ta ra ra ra rum. Ta ra rum pum.
Good morning, Can you tell me where...
Is your morning good?
Some people like to say it's good...
...even when it's bad
Decide and then tell us.
Okay never mind. Can you tell me where building 216 is?
Why should we tell you?
Yes, why should we tell you?
What will we get by telling you?
Nothing!
What do you want?
It's finished!
Three dollars? Three dollars...
...to get directions?
1997 dollars left.
Daddy, we'll lose if we keep spending like this
I gave them three but I saved us ten.
Or we would've been...
...wandering from one block to another forever.
Which is what we're doing right now.
Excuse me. Pull over please.
Excuse me, can you tell me where 216 is please?
Daddy, we've come back to the same spot.
Cheers!
Bloody cheats! - No RV.
Bruno, come here Bruno.
Catch him! - Catch him!
Thief! - Catch him!
Hey... don't worry. They're all playing the game.
But the knife? - Toy knife.
They're trying to frighten us. Right mama?
Yes. So that we get thrown out of the game.
But we're not fools who'll...
...get scared and start crying.
I'm not a fool - No you're not.
But we have to be very careful.
Every team wants the other team to get thrown out- Yes.
Daddy, where are the cameras?
They could be hidden anywhere.
Look look! Camera look. I'm not crying. I am smiling.
Hey Champ!
Mummy, ice-cream.
Shut up! You always want ice-cream!
Why can't you tuck your shirt in sometimes?
Oh hello! Hello! Welcome! Welcome.
Who is it? - Top? - Yes.
Middle!
He means to say, do you live on the top floor?
And middle doesn't mean middle class...
...it means we live on the middle floor.
Such a sweet children! Very nice. Very nice.
Ours is not that bad. He is ours after all.
You must be from India?
From Manhattan actually.
Manhattan!
So what's the big deal? Manhattan!
My brother lives in Manhattan too.
He's a green card holder now
Permanently settled
But why've you left Manhattan to come here?
Why do you even need to ask that?
How does it change your life?
He must've lost his job. Engineer, Computers?
I know... Today job tomorrow vanish! Manhattan!
That's why my job is the best. Myself Pandya, NYC cabbie.
If you ever need a taxi just call me.
Direct. Mobile. Top floor...
...top business.
I think we should go somewhere else. - We just got these printed.
If you keep distributing them to everyone you meet...
...who'll pay for them? Your father? Idiot!
My father's paid for these.
Let's go. Come on son. Move aside please.
Coming through! Come on, move! Move your bags!
What kind of people come here these days?
Why don't you go back to Manhattan?
And you've got a dog as well!
Come on Bruno. Come on. First!
Bruno, sit down. Sit down, Bruno. Bruno, sit down.
Bruno, this is your new house.
Where's our room? - Here.
And yours?
This room is for everyone, you and us.
You mean five people and one room!
Yes! We'll all cuddle up in one room.
Super fun, right?
Wrong. I can tie my own hair now. I need my own room.
Princess, there's only one room and we will all share it.
Not me.
Me neither! Come on, let's go back.
And the reality show?
We don't want to play. Come on Princess.
But I've told all my friends that we're going to be on TV.
We're leaving whether you come with us or not, right?
Fine. Champ and I will play. We will be stars.
Don't come crying for autographs later.
And we won't share the grand super prize with you either.
Prize! What prize?
Surprise!
Who cares? I can't live in this hell-hole...
...just for some stupid prize.
Oh-ho! Hoity-Toity!
Hoity-Toity! Hoity-Toity!
Princess, are you coming? - No.
Fine. Bye!
Come on daddy. It'll be fun.
We'll all cuddle up in one room. Super fun!
Promise? - I promise!
Okay. But if it's not fun, I'm going back, right?
Until we don't win you can't leave. Hoity-Toity!
Hoity-Toity? I'll show you...
Wow! Where did you find that, Champ?
I want to play too. Let me play.
No, I want to play alone.
Please let me play. Please!
Hey Champ, you want to see a trick?
Not him, show me a trick? Let's see...
...how quickly you can clean the kitchen.
And I'll attack this room.
Relax! They're asleep.
They were both scared, weren't they?
Yes. But they're quite brave, just like me.
We should've looked some more.
We could've found an apartment in a better area.
Their dad was also brought up in an action-packed area like this.
It'll toughen them up.
They would've become delicate darlings...
...if they'd lived in Manhattan their whole lives.
It's better if they live...
Whatever happens, happens for the best...
Daddy, no water!
How can I go to school without a bath?
You bathe everyday Princess Skip it for a day.
No bath! No bath! No bath!
No mama! No bath, no school!
No school! No school! No school!
Princess, no school! No bath, no school!
No bath! - Okay guys.
Take out your swimming costumes.
What!? - Swimming costumes!

Sir, I don't have a problem working here.
Please leave.

If I give you a job I'll have to buy a piano.
Sorry ma'am. I'm very sorry.

Hey... thanks RV.
Thanks to you, buddy.
If you need anyone for the next race as well...
I can't promise you anything.
But I'll try my best.
This is 500. Isn't it 200...
...for changing tyres?
Yes. The rest is yours as well. I'm just returning it back to you.
Do you remember when we were both tyre changers?
I needed some cash urgently and...
...you gave me whatever you had in your pocket.
You didn't even count it. - I didn't even count it?
And you never asked me for it either
I forgot all about it? Idiot!
I often thought I'd meet up with you and return your money...
...but you'd become such a big star with just one win.
Or such a big... anyway, thanks for this buddy.
Where are you taking me?
Today, we will have lunch!
Cabbie, you finally got a job!
Well, not a job... but...
Then where'd you get this?
Race track... pit stop... RV, tyre changer
You changed tyres to get this money?
Hey, you play the piano at noisy birthday parties...
...depressing funerals and crowded hotel lobbies...
...just to earn this money, don't you?
But you're RV.
And you... you're the greatest piano player in the world.
And you have to perform...
...at these stupid places because of me. I'm sorry.
So what'll you have, cake...
...pastry, hamburger... pizza?
Nothing! This money is going into the school fees account.
So are you going to play the piano hungry?
We've got to save 3000 dollars for the school fees.
I know. - And how much time do we have left?
Thirty days. I remember.
Good. Every cent counts.
But listen to me.
Do you want to break the promise...
...we made to Princess and Champ?
Of course not.
Then forget the lunch and let me go.
They'll cut my wages for an hour if...
...I take a break for more than 15 minutes.
Understand?
Very well. - Let's go.
Come on Champ, Princess is coming first...
I don't want to be first...
...lf there was pizza then I would have won.
Who's not having dinner?
Mommy!
What happened? How'd you get hurt?
Actually I was...
When Princess was at school she...
Princess gave Susan a left and a right.
Princess, you never used to fight.
Why did Susan say there's no reality show...
...called Don't Worry Be Happy?
Why did she say daddy's lying...
...and we're really poor?
Does it hurt?
No. Just a scratch. Tell me...
...why did Susan say all that?
Tell me mamma.
Okay, ready for a race. Champ in a BMW...
...and Princess in a Ferrari.
Both are on the starting line.
Who'll cross the finishing line first? Champ or Princess?
Champ or Princess? - Princess
Champ! - Oh my God! It's really close.
Champ! Champ is the champ!
Champ wins!
Hey I won! - And BMW wins!
Mamma, aren't you going to eat?
I'm so full. I had a late lunch. You guys eat.
Daddy?
I ate even later than mamma. See, I'm still burping.
Oh excuse me!
RV! - I'm sorry.
Daddy, do you want the bread?
No, you can have it.
I don't want it.
Well in that case...
In that case... here you go Bruno
Princess, I thought you were going to have it.
Why'd you give it to this... this dog?
He just ate a whole meal.
No he didn't. Look how he lapped it up.
I could've finished it too.
Daddy, don't happy, be worry.
No Champ, its don't worry be happy.
I know! - No you don't.
Look at him sleeping happily after eating my bread.
Okay dog, bye.
Listen you... I haven't brought you here to play a game. This is it.
Bye. Good bye! Forever. Get it!
You don't, do you?
It's quite simple. We have two choices...
...either we send Champ and Princess...
...to a school of their choice or we keep you here and...
...give our share of the food to you.
Anyway, what would you have chosen...
...if you were in my place?
You would have chosen your kids little doggies, right?
So... l'm choosing my kids as well.
Look man, you're a dog. You'll manage somehow.
Now I'm going home, there...
...and you can go wherever you want.
Okay, understand?
Here, fetch boy!
Bruno! - Bruno!?
Bruno? - Mama, Bruno is not in the bathroom.
Bruno? - Daddy...
Bruno, where did you go? - Daddy, get up! - What?
Bruno, where are you hiding? Come out. - What?
We don't know where Bruno is. He's not at home!
No Princess, don't cry. Cameras!
Get up! We've got to go find Bruno.
Can't we search on Monday? It's Sunday!
RV! - Daddy! - Bruno!
Hey... champ its okay. We'll find him. Come on.
Come on RV quickly.
Bruno! Bruno!
Bruno!? - Bruno!?
Bruno? - Bruno!!
Champ! - Harry!
Champ! - Uncle Harry! - Did you bring Bruno here?
No he brought me here. I was looking for your house.
Luckily, I heard a sound from behind me...
...Harry, Harry, what are you searching for?
And when I turned around I saw... Rambo!
Bruno, Uncle Harry!
Same thing! He was jogging...
...in the park just like Rambo.
I asked him where does Princess live?
He said, Wait here. I'll finish my jog and...
...then I'll take you to her house.
Harry, always at the right place...
...at the right time
RV, look who Bruno has brought home.
Who'll take Bruno down for a walk?
Me! - Champ! Come on Bruno, let's go. - Come with me.
You've lost weight. Are you on a diet?
Forget it. It doesn't help at all.
My eighth girlfriend used to say...
...you should always be on a light diet.
As soon as the light comes on you should start eating.
I think you're following that diet as well.
You've put on so much weight. Maybe it's because...
...you don't have to run after RV anymore.
You're right. During those days I couldn't eat...
...and I couldn't sleep because...
...he used to be late every time.
Radhika, RV, I've brought you...
We don't need it!
Let me finish.
Thank you very much for bringing back Bruno.
We don't need anything else.
Hear me out at least.
Didn't you hear me? We don't need your help. We're fine.
Then why are you speaking so softly?
Okay, fine! We have a problem!
But you don't need my help, right?
Very good.
Because I work with Rusty.
Mind blowing! Since when have...
...you become so intelligent?
That means I shouldn't even be here, right?
Finally! I'm tired of giving you hints.
RV, come on! Harry, please listen.
Let him go.
You've seen our condition, haven't you?
Now go and have a good laugh!
Oh shut up! This! I'd brought this, my taxi license.
I didn't want to insult you by giving you money.
I had saved it. Who knows when...
...the dream might break and...
...l'd need to drive a taxi again.
My dream hasn't broken. You and Billy...
...can try as much as you want.
Forget it.
He was just trying to help you.
Help! He was laughing at me.
He was telling me my racing days are over.
And now I'm only good enough to drive a taxi. Help, my foot!
What's wrong with driving a taxi?
It's all bad! I'll do anything but I won't drive a taxi.
Like what? Only thirty days are left.
Twenty nine. I know.
Then? Whatever I earn is spent on rent, food bills, electricity...
...and subway tickets. How will we pay the school fees?
I don't know. Somehow.
Come on RV, let's be real. Or else let's forget the promise.
Let's tell Princess she'll have to change schools.
No. No. We'll find a way.
This is the way.
You know how difficult it is to get a taxi license...
...in New York. It doesn't come for free.
You need to pay thousands of dollars.
Why can't you drive a taxi?
I can go back and change tyres, deliver pizzas...
...wash dishes in a restaurant...
...I can do anything else but I can't drive a taxi!
Because I drive to race. I won't be able to...
...beg for money from the passengers.
Why do you have to beg?
You won't understand!
I will not drive a taxi and that's final!
Okay everybody, no hanging around the corridor.
Get in the cafeteria.
No hanging around the corridor. Come this way.
Get in the cafeteria.
Princess, I want burger, chips fries and donuts.
We're not having lunch.
We are! We are! - No Champ, we're not eating.
But why?
I'm very hungry.
Champ, do you want to leave this school...
...and go to a different one?
Mamma and Papa can't pay the fees so...
...we'll put this lunch money in the piggy-bank. Okay?
In a few days we'll have a lot of money.
And then we'll pay the school fees.
Just one donut. Please!
Hotdog? - No, that's all.
Eighty cents, thank you.
Day one. Nine dollars and twenty cents. Yes!
It's okay, finish it.
So now we don't need to change schools, right?
It's not enough to skip just one lunch, you fool.
I am not a fool!
Sorry. You're very clever, aren't you?
Then don't tell mummy and daddy...
...that we are skipping our lunch. They'll get upset.
This is our secret. Promise?
Cross my heart and hope to die.

there's a gypsy singing an age old song
life's a thread and its knotted and long
the tethers aren't easy to unravel
but this resolute mind
a solution it'll find
it's the duty of the drifter
to keep on moving
listen now listen my amore
the bird too makes its abode
bit by bit, earned, borrowed
little by little you too can make yourself a nest
a drop at a time can a sea achieve
strand by strand a quilt we weave
knit your life too just a little bit at a time
who waters all the garden, the trees...
...for the flowers bloom for only he
it's the duty of the drifter
to keep on moving
listen now listen my amore
like mountains days are weighed down too...
...nights are obscure, clouded blue
and if you're looking for the easiest route
remember these roads are uncharted
with forks where your lost eyes parted
in a moment that appears this day or the next
you wander from shore to shore...
...with one hand on your heart
it's the duty of the drifter to keep on moving
listen now listen my amore
Papa...
Radhika, get in the car.
Come on, I'll drop you home.
My house is too far for you.
Come on, you don't need to be stubborn now.
What do you mean, now?
You're already married to him. And now...
...you're going through a financial crisis.
Then why are you still being stubborn?
You should have called. I would've sent you the tickets
You and your kids could have come...
...to stay with me in L.A.
And of course the pilote de courses as well.
I would have made a few phone calls...
...he would have found a job quite easily.
I'd told you... this man cannot...
...think beyond the present
If he could then...
Anyway, it's no use ruing the past.
What are you doing? This is a cheque for 50000 dollars.
So how's work?
I read recently that...
...you've taken over another company. Congrats.
Your company must be...
...the fourth largest database consortium now, or is it the third.
Now what have I done?
Nothing. You didn't do anything wrong then and you haven't now.
Should I write another cheque? Let me help you
We don't need any help. Everything is fine.
Oh yeah? Everything is fine?
You've started traveling by bus now.
Look at what that pilote de courses has done to you.
Rajveer Singh.
Please say his name with respect Mr. Banerjee. He's my husband
Best husband, best father and the best pilote de courses.
He can take care of me and my children.
We don't want anybody's help. Thank you.
Listen now listen my amore
listen now listen my amore
Why did you tear up the cheque? Why?
By giving us the cheque Mr. Banerjee wanted to prove that...
...I married a useless and irresponsible person.
He wanted to buy the right to insult you...
...by giving us 50,000 dollars.
So what? Let him insult me.
He was only insulting me, wasn't he?
I don't have any problem with that.
Let him keep giving us cheques and...
...he can keep insulting me.
For 50,000 dollars he can...
...insult me for two hours a week.
And if he gives four such cheques...
...he gets one week free.
I don't care if he insults you but...
...I can't tolerate it if he insults my husband.
Listen, it's for them. You could have tolerated it for them.
I told him that you're here to look after us.
We don't need anybody's help. I was right, wasn't I?
Yes. I'm here.
Taxi? - 650 dollars. And just two days left. How am I going to do it?
JFK? - Sure.
I have to get there in thirty minutes.
I am sorry ma'am. I am cab driver and...
...this a road not a race track.
I'll pay you $ 300.
It's impossible. - 500 then! - What?
600! Last offer.
It's the duty of the drifter to keep on moving

Hey, why are you slowing down?
Damn it! I missed my flight. If you'd got me here on time...
...you would've gotten the full 600...
...here's a hundred. You know what...
...here's another 50, just for caring so much. Weirdo!
It's the duty of the drifter
to keep on moving
listen now listen my amore
Here's twenty dollars. Plus five is twenty five.
And these two quarters, keep it all.
That's not enough, Pandya.
Chattoo? - Yes.
Come here.
I don't want to listen to your jokes. I'm very sleepy.
This is not a joke, it's serious. Come here.
What happened? - - RV's daughter is in the hospital.
What happened, RV?
She got wet in the rain last night and...
...now she's got pneumonia.
Pneumonia? That affects the lungs.
We need your help not your diagnosis.
Come on, empty out your pockets. - Yes sure.
Pindi, Doctor, Khan, Suleiman, lyengar, come here.
What's this? - Five dollars.
You're a friend, aren't you? We need your help not your charity.
Come on give me 15 more.
Venkat, Suleiman, Naresh, Paresh, Jignesh. Come on. - Coming.
It started raining suddenly and...
...she got really high fever.
Pneumonia. Shivers...
God willing, everything will be all right. - Thank you.
Bring her home after she gets out of the hospital...
...she can play with my daughter.
Hey dude, just chill. Return it when you have it...
...and if you don't, double chill!
Princess, now you will not have to leave school.
Happy birthday Champ.

Hey we are going to tell you a story.
A story about four guys, Ta, Ra, Ma and Pa.
When TA stumbles
RA gives a hand
MA understands
what PA meant to say
there's TA, there's RA, there's MA, here's PA...
...when we come together
in one little boat
hit our little notes
hear us sing, happy and gay
Ta ra rum pum ta ra rum pum
TA one day with a big smile...
...leaned into RA's ear and said
have you heard, did you know that
MA loves PA and they're wed
there's TA, there's RA, there's MA, here's PA
when we come together
hand in glove, spread the love...
...show the world how to adore
Ta ra rum pum ta ra rum pum
TA has eyes only for RA
all the time, everywhere
MA too goes where PA does now and then, here and there
there's TA, there's RA, there's MA, here's PA
when we come together
four of us, say in chorus...
...whatever will be will be
Ta ra rum pum ta ra rum pum
Hi RV. - Hi! - How's your daughter?
She's fine now.
Whose daughter was he asking about?
His.
Then why was he asking you?
Who knows? You know these taxi drivers.
They drive the taxi all day and at night... you know how it is.
Hey RV! They let her out of the hospital pretty quick.
Very good. Now let her rest. Feed her some fruits...
...and if you need any help please call me. Okay?
Good night. Good night ma'am.
Here you go! What intelligent parents!
She's just been discharged from the hospital...
...and she's wearing neither a sweater nor socks.
And then they'll curse the doctor...
for not giving the right medicines...
She's fallen ill again.
Come on Shona. Don't listen to them.
Shona, listen to me. - Don't Shona me!
I'll return the money. I would have anyway.
It's just a 1000 dollars!
1000 dollars! After all that's happened...
...lt's just a 1000 dollars for you?
They gave it on their own.
Its not like I put a gun to their heads.
You might just do that as well! In fact, you will do that!
Somebody who lies about his daughter for money...
...can do anything. He can commit murder.
Can I commit murder?
Have you ever seen me killing even a cockroach?
You know why I lied
Fine! I'll tell them the truth.
So that we won't ever have to lie to them again.
At least we won't have to lie for them.
Radhika, don't! They'll wake up.
Princess, now listen carefully. The reality show is a lie
The hidden cameras are a lie.
There is no game. We're really poor, very very poor.
Radhika! - Stay out of this!
Forget Miss Peggy. Forget your school
You will not go to that school from tomorrow.
Or else your daddy will lie. He will steal.
And if that doesn't work then he will also commit murder.
Radhika please. - Don't touch me! - Listen, just listen!
Just don't... - Just listen to me.
Just don't come near me! Don't come near me!
Pa was right. He'd said that I would regret it.
RV! The shorter the name, the smaller the man!
Champ! Wake up Champ. Don't you want to know...
where your daddy got...
...the money for your birthday party?
He conned innocent people...
...he stole their money.
Champ? Champ!? RV! RV! Champ!
Champ! - Oh shit! Champ! Champ, get up.
What did you have for lunch?
Nothing. - What do you mean nothing?
Princess, sweetheart. The doctor's first question will be...
...what champ had for lunch? Please try to remember.
We didn't have lunch. - Why?
We were trying to save money for the school fees.
For what? - We've known that...
...we're poor for a while now.
So we started to save our lunch money.
It was my idea not to have lunch.
Please don't scold Champ.
It's my fault, isn't it?
No. Princess, it's not your fault.
It's nobody's fault. Don't worry. Everything will be all right.
Hurry up, please! Faster!
Radhika, RV. We need to talk.
How is Champ?
He's fine. Do you want to go inside and hold his hand?
65,000!
65,000 dollars! Where are we going to get that from?
What's that? You do have insurance, don't you?
Two days max. We won't be able to...
...hold him longer than that.
RV?
You know we can't depend on the whims of pilot de coursess, can we?
You know it's been on my mind for some time...
...getting into sports apparels.
Brand Billy! - Good idea!
Let me in! Let me in!
Sir, I cannot let you pass. Sir you can't go in.
That's okay Roger, he's with me.
What happened, RV?
Hey, I think that's RV.
RV! RV! RV! Where have you vanished old boy?
Where were you all these days?
Come on, join us. You badly need a drink.
Hello... - No. I need money.
Money! RV, we all need money.
Yes. But you have it. A lot of it. And I don't have any.
What do I have? How do you say it...
...I work hard and earn barely enough...
...to buy myself two meals a day. That's all.
My son is in the hospital.
He ate something in school.
We don't how but a piece of glass got into his stomach.
He's critically ill.
How much money do you need RV?
What? - How much money do you need?
65,000... dollars.
That's a lot of money RV. A lot of money.
I don't have that much with me but...
...I would like to make a contribution. 100 dollars.
Okay I'll do better than that. 200 dollars. Okay. Take it.
Billy, I need 65,000 dollars.
Rusty calls me Mr. Bhatia.
Rusty can go...
Mr. Bhatia, I'm asking you for a loan and...
...l'm willing to do anything in return...
...washing, cleaning, servicing. Anything.
I will be your slave. Please. Please!
I don't know what more I can do RV.
All right, 300 dollars. Anything more is impossible.
You know all the people here...
...why don't you ask them?
If they all contribute a little, you will be in business.
Let me do it for you. Hey guys!
Our friend RV here needs some cash...
...for his son's operation.
So, can we all contribute? Please.
Pitch in and help him out. Thank you.
There you go! I've made the opening speech.
Now go to each one of them and...
Beg!
This suit, this cigar, this 50 dollar drink... all this...
...can be snatched away from you, Billy... in a single moment.
It was all snatched away from me.
Keep this carefully. Who knows when...
...you might need to come begging to me.
Now we will meet on the race track.
And who will win? You? You need courage to win.
That's right Billy. I got used to losing and then I lost my courage.
And when I lost my courage, I started lying.
I cheated those who had helped me.
And today, I have come here to beg from you.
I don't think I would have realized how low...
...l've fallen if you hadn't insulted me.
My wife... my kids think of me as their hero.
Best husband...
...best father... best pilot de courses.
And today... just for them... I will become the best
RV, wait. - Don't waste your time on him, Harry
RV's chapter is finished.
I had lost my conscience because of...
...your money and my obligations.
If I don't go now I will be finished.
Go. And don't ever return to Speeding Saddles.
To hell with your Speeding Saddles!
Now watch how we finish your chapter for ever.
RV! RV, listen! RV! RV, listen to me.
I have no time to listen to your nonsense.
Now listen to me please!
I am not Champ's father, but when he was born...
...I held him in my arms before you did.
You were racing at that time.
I don't have 65,000. But I have 10000 dollars.
That's how much you need to register a team.
You used to say we should...
...have our own team, right?
So come on, let's finish Speeding Saddles.
We can do it.
Today we will both win. You and me.
We will both be champs.
The team's been registered.
We've got an entry in the race.
And Chevrolet has given us a car. All set.
What about the pit crew?
Didn't I tell you all set?
Lyer, Chattoo and Pindi... tyre changers.
Khan will handle refuelling.
Please forgive me. I'm really sorry.
Chill dude! Don't say anything more.
We know you've done something wrong.
And we also know why you did it. So...
Double chill!
And myself Pandya, I am your team manager.
Don't think about anything else. Just focus on the race.
We will take care of the rest.
We are New York cabbies...
...we never leave our due!
That's the way!
Now Speeding Saddles is finished.
Totally finished!
Hold your head high. When have I not been by your side?
You can deliver pizza, drive a taxi or race a car...
...l'm always with you.
So what if I'm not in the stands cheering you on today?
You will win the race.
We don't have a choice.
Tell me you'll win.
I want to hear it from you.
I will win.
I will win!
Go win cabbie! Go win!
Daddy, let's go win.
How about, this time I pack him off forever?
Rusty, you are a cool guy.
Chattoo, take Princess to the stands.
Come on Princess.
Papa? Go win cabbie!
RV! RV! RV! RV! RV! RV!
My darling's on TV. Oh God!
Mama, mama look papa!
If I look at your papa then who's going to feed you, your father?
Open your mouth!
Papa! - What do you think? Will we win or lose?
Of course, we'll win!
What do you say, Paresh, Jignesh, Sukesh?
We'll definitely win!
Everybody's saying we'll win. Nobody's saying we'll lose.
Who should I bet with?
RV, go to third gear.
Yes!
Come on RV!
Cool it RV! You need a pit-stop. Your tyres will burst.
Damn it!
Hey! - Son of a...
RV! RV, sit down! Sit down. Let it go!
We'll deal with him later. Don't lose focus. Concentrate.
Come on, come on! Let's go.
Harry, I can't find the fifth nut.
Damn it!
Come on guys, what's happening?
Harry, what's happening? - Move, move, move! Give it to me.
Go! Go! Go! Go! Go RV!
Go papa! Go! Go! Go!
All right, how far up is RV?
Go RV!
Yes!
Well done guys!
Come on hurry up guys! - What are you doing?
Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!
Come on RV!
Come on papa. Go! Go! Go!
Come on RV!
Yes!
Damn it!
That's my boy! Go get him!
Last lap, RV. Last lap!
Go! Go! Go! Go!
RV, he's giving way deliberately. Don't go high!
RV, what are you doing? Don't go high!
RV, don't!
All right Billy, I'll shove him into the wall.
RV!
Come on RV!
RV! RV!
RV, don't let him go!
Yes!
Oh no!
It's the duty of the drifter
to keep on moving listen now listen my amore
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Yes! Yes! Yes! We did it!
We won!
Flag comes down, daddy comes first and...
...Rusty goes bust. Do you want to see my scar?
Other people shy away from showing their scars...
...but Champ shows it off proudly.
Because papa has told him that...
...this scar is the trophy of our victory.
Papa races regularly now.
And Mamma has completed her degree.
Every week we go for mama's concert on one day...
...and papa's race on another.
Champ and I don't have to skip lunch any more and...
...we didn't leave our school either.
But I don't know why Mamma and Papa still say that we're poor.
I don't mind, I've started saving out habit now.
We don't live in Cabbie Alley anymore.
But we go there every week-end to meet all our friends.
Sometimes they come over to our house.
Our house. The same one. Home-sweet-home.
How'd you find it? Where did you find it?
Oh Shona! I promise I won't spend...
...any more money without thinking it through.
Because nobody has seen the future.
There may or may not be a tomorrow.
I will convert all my tomorrows into today.
Okay that's a very bad line. Forget that.
No more loans. No more installments.
And I will never lie to anybody or cheat them for money.
Apart from you. A couple of lies that I tell you sometimes...
But I will never spoil the kids. I will only spoil you.
When did you lie to me?
Just once when...
...l'd asked you for money to get the car serviced...
And... once more when I had to...
...buy you a dress for your birthday party.
What lie did you tell me then?
I'd said I needed money for plumbing.
Hang on... l'd used the plumbing excuse when...
...I wanted to buy a synthesizer for Princess.
Then I'd said...
Come on!
