Dreams of so many...
on the floor.
Latika. Latika.
Latika.
Latika. Latika.
Jamal.
Jamal. Jamal.
Jamal.
Latika.
Latika. Latika.
Time for a commercial break, ladies and gentlemen.
I know, I know. I can't stand the tension either.
We'll be right back.
Guy from the slums...
becomes a millionaire overnight.
Do you know who's the only other person who's done that?
Me.
I know what it feels like.
I know what you've been through.
I'm not going to become a millionaire.
I don't know the answer.
You've said that before, yeah.
No. Really. This time I don't.
Come on. You can't take the money and run now.
You're on the edge of history, kid.
I don't see what else I can do.
Maybe it's written, my friend.
I don't know.
I just get some kind of karmic feeling you're going to win this.
Trust me, Jamal.
You're going to win.
Stand by, everyone. We're on live in 30.
Get him back on the floor, yeah. Prem is waiting.
Yeah, he's coming. He's coming. I'm just getting him.
Go first. Twenty seconds.
Do the right thing, and in approximately three minutes, you'll be as famous as me.
Ten seconds.
And as rich as me.
Almost.
Five seconds. Four, three-
From rags to raja. It's your destiny.
We are on. Applause and music, please.
Jib move out. Cut to two.
Welcome back to Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
In the chair tonight is Jamal Malik.
Yeah. - As if you don't know.
For 10 million rupees-
The question once again:
Which cricketer has scored the most first class centuries in history?
I know it isn't Sachin Tendulkar. - That's a start.
So it could be Ricky Ponting...
Jack Hobbs or Michael Slater.
I'll use a lifeline- fifty-fifty.
Okay. Computer, take away two wrong answers, please.
Well, you were right about Sachin Tendulkar.
That leaves you a fifty-fifty choice, Jamal. 'B,' Ricky Ponting...
or'D,'Jack Hobbs?
What do you think?
Decision time.
For 10 million rupees.
'B,' Ricky Ponting...
or'D,'Jack Hobbs?
'D.'
Not 'B'?
'B,'Ricky Ponting...
the Australian great cricketer?
'D,'Jack Hobbs.
You know?
So it could be 'B,' Ricky Ponting.
Or'D,'Jack Hobbs.
Final answer- 'D.'
Computer-ji, 'D.' 'D'lock kiya-jaye.
'D'lock kiya-jaye. Computer-ji, 'D'lock kiya-jaye.
With...
197 first class centuries, the answer is...
'D,'Jack Hobbs.
Jamal Malik-...
millionaire.
I cannot believe my eyes, ladies and gentlemen.
This needs a dance, man. Come on. Come on.
Well done. Well done.
So, are you ready...
for the final question?
For 20 million rupees.
No.
But maybe it's written, no?
Maybe.
Okay, the final question on Who Wants to Be a-
What a show, ladies and gentlemen.
What a show. Join us tomorrow night to see...
if Jamal Malik has made the biggest mistake of his life...
or just won the biggest prize in the history of Indian television.
This way. - Yeah. Let's just-
Come, Jamal.
Great show.
See you tomorrow, okay? Be on time.
Yeah. - Bye.
Careful.
What's going on?
He's a cheat. - How do you know he's cheating?
Bloody village boy.
I fed him the wrong answer, and that little shit got it right.
You gave him an answer?
Not exactly.
But how does it matter? It's- It's my show.
It's my fucking show.
It is bizarrely plausible.
And yet- - Because I'm a slumdog, a chai wallah...
I'm a liar, right? - Most of you are.
But you are not a liar, Mr. Malik. That's for sure.
You're too truthful.
We're done.
I don't know where they've taken her.
Latika.
I went on the show...
because I thought she'd be watching.
Did Jamal Malik...
an uneducated 18-year-old boy from the slums of Mumbai...
win one crore by fair means or foul play?
In the crowd around me, there is an even bigger question.
Will he be back tonight to play for another 20 million rupees?
Jamal Malik-
Hey, you, come here. Give me a kiss.
Come here. - You want it?
Yeah, I want it. Come on, girls.
And if there wasn't enough drama in a contestant...
reaching the final question, Jamal Malik...
was last night arrested...
on suspicion of fraud. - That guy-
He will never give up.
Never.
Crazy chutiye.
Go. - But-
Just drive.
There won't be another chance.
He will kill you.
I'll take care of him.
Salim.
I can't.
You have to.
For God's sake, hold on to this.
And for what I've done, please forgive me.
Have a good life.
You're back on the show.
Come on.
The nation is gripped with Millionaire fever tonight...
as Jamal Malik, an uneducated young man from the Juhu slum in Mumbai...
won a staggering 10 million rupees...
on the television show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
An estimated 90 million people will tune in tonight...
to see if he can go one stage further and win...
an unthinkable 20 million rupees.
Come on.
Where is everyone? Get back in here.
Get back to work. Now.
Chai wallah?
Welcome back to Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
I can safely say that tonight...
is the biggest night of both our lives.
Jamal Malik, the call center worker from Mumbai...
has already won a cool 10 million.
He can walk away with that in his pocket...
or make the biggest gamble in television history...
and go for the final question...
and a staggering 20 million rupees.
Are you ready for that question?
Yes. - Jamal.
Big reader, are you, Jamal?
I can read.
Lucky.
In Alexander Dumas's book...
The Three Musketeers...
two of the musketeers are called Athos and Porthos.
What was the name of the third musketeer?
'A,'Aramis, 'B,'Cardinal Richelieu...
'C,' D'Artagnan...
or'D,' Planchet?
Athos.
Final question for 20 million rupees, and he's smiling.
I guess you know the answer.
Do you believe it? I don't.
You don't?
So you take the 10 million and walk?
No.
I'll play.
Let me remind you, Jamal.
If you get the answer wrong...
you lose everything.
Ten million rupees, Jamal.
It's a fortune.
I'd like to phone a friend.
We're going to the wire.
The final lifeline.
Here we go.
It's ringing.
Who is it?
It's my brother's number, but-
The kind of brother who'd go for a walk...
on a 20 million rupee question?
It's the only number I know.
You are on your own, Jamal.
Hello?
Hello, Jamal?
I'm guessing that isn't your brother.
This is?
My name is Latika.
Okay, Latika. You want to hear the question one more time?
And let's be clear about this.
Twenty million rupees ride on your answer. You have 30 seconds.
Latika. - Jamal...
please read out the question... - Salim.
to Latika now.
Is that really you?
Yes. - The question, Jamal. The question.
In Alexander Dumas's book, The Three Musketeers...
two of the musketeers are called Athos and Porthos.
What was the name of the third musketeer?
Was it 'A,'Aramis, 'B,'Cardinal Richelieu...
'C,' D'Artagnan, 'D,' Planchet?
Fifteen seconds. - Where are you?
I'm safe.
Ten seconds. Latika, what do you think?
I don't know.
I've never known.
Jamal-
You really are on your own now, Jamal.
Your final answer for 20 million rupees.
'A.'
'A,' because?
Just... because.
Hey, Salim.
Final answer?
Yes. Final answer- 'A,' Aramis.
Computer-ji, 'A'lock kiya-jaye.
Salim.
Jamal Malik.
Call center assistant from Mumbai.
Chai wallah.
For two crore-...
twenty million rupees.
You were asked who the third musketeer was-...
in the novel by Alexander Dumas.
You answered 'A'...
Aramis...
which is...
I have to tell you...
the right answer.
Jamal Malik.
Double crorepati.
God is great.
What a night.
What a night...
Ladies and gentlemen...
we are present here...
to create... history.
Well done.
Yea.
I knew you'd be watching.
I thought we'd meet again only in death.
This is our destiny.
Kiss me.
Hey...
Hey.
Hey...
They can't touch me...
We break off, run so fast they can't even catch me...
Been that gypsy Touch me...
I show you tricks with my sticks that quickly...
One day I wanna be a star...
So I get to hang in a bar...
I'll go to Vegas if they pay us...
Just to forget my scars
