:27:00
When did you come to Bombay?
:27:03
It's ancient history, kid. I forgot.
:27:08
How could you?
:27:14
I was half your size
when I ran away from home.

:27:17
When I was that high,
I had seen all of India three times.

:27:21
By train, ticketless.
:27:24
Up, down...
:27:26
left, right...
:27:32
And then?
:27:35
Forget it. Why spoil a good high?
:27:41
So, you think...
:27:44
you can go back to the sweet village air?
:27:47
Of course! As soon as I have my 500.
:27:55
What's this business about 500 rupees?
:27:59
You know, my brother lied
to my mother about me.

:28:02
He said I stole his money.
:28:05
He beat me when he felt like it.
:28:10
When Father died, he became a big boss.
:28:13
I got pissed off.
:28:17
He was a mechanic.
He came home with a client's bike.

:28:21
I set it on fire.
:28:24
Ma said I couldn't stay home anymore.
:28:30
You sneaky bastard!
:28:38
Then?
:28:39
Ma took me to the circus...
:28:42
and left me there. She said:
:28:44
"Don't come back until you have
500 for your brother."

:28:50
I said, "Fine.
:28:52
"In a month and 17 days,
I'll save 500 and go back home."

:28:58
You stupid ass! You'll get burnt someday.
