Damini (1993)

Quotes

Damini

Edit
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): Rather than messing up with me inside the courtroom, it's better we settle matters outside it Govind. You know very well, Indrajit Chaddha can't be defeated.
  • Govind: [Smiling sarcastically] Chaddha, have you ever seen kids extracting kites from electrical wires ?
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): [Confused] What ?
  • Govind: There happen to be wires from whom even kids can extract their kites, no matter how entangled. Thats a different thing though. By taking up Damini's case, you've touched a wire which will unleash such an electrical buzzer upon you that you'll forget getting bumps once and for all.
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): [Irritated] The rope is burnt, but it seems some tensile strength remains. Gupta is willing to pay 400 thousand. For the reputation of a girl, this amount is fairly sufficient.
  • Govind: [Sarcastically] You've made a lot of progress Chaddha, from brokering of justice you've come down to auctioning of honour ! This profession is called PIMPING!
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): [Furiously shouting] Govind!
  • Govind: [Replying even loudly] Don't dare scream! Or I'll wrap this case right here, right now. No hearing dates, no verdicts. Just plain justice.
  • [crushing his cigarette on Chaddha's face]
  • Govind: That too blistering.
  • [Chaddha's henchman drawing a machete]
  • Govind: [Govind calmly stops] Chaddha, explain to him that such toys can now be purchased at nearby shops. But you can't buy the guts required to operate them from any market on earth. MEN are born with it.
  • [Threatening Chaddha with his fists]
  • Govind: And when this two and a half kg hand lands on someone, he doesn't just wake up...
  • [Govind pointing up hinting death]
  • Govind: He simply RISES UP!
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): [Humiliated] I'll answer of this in the court tomorrow.
  • Govind: [Pointing his fingers on Chaddha] And remember, if you dare misbehave there, I'll beat the hell out of you. Judge will keep screaming for order and you'll keep getting punched.
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): Relax young man
  • [slipping and held by Govind by the shoulder, before being threatened to leave]
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): .
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): [On seeing protests in the factory and the servants leaving the house after the case slowly turns against him] Now this fight is not only between us and Damini, Mr. Gupta. On one side are these people who've been bearing the injustices we've inflicted upon them all these years. And on the other side are us. Damini created a power along with the common man. Now there's only one way out of this mess. Just as Urmi's murder was made to look like a suicide, Damini's death will have to be fabricated as a road accident. The flame torch of truth which she's carrying with her can be extinguished only by her blood.
  • Shekhar Gupta: [Entering the room clapping sarcastically] Great, simply marvelous. A woman whose honesty you couldn't buy, whose truth you cannot fight, whose faith you cannot break, by deciding to kill her, you are giving a good proof of being a man.
  • Mr. Gupta (Shekhar's dad): [In paranoia] Just stop talking rubbish.
  • [Gupta lighting his cigarette in fear]
  • Mr. Gupta (Shekhar's dad): Everyone is insulting us in the city. This is now the only way we can save what's left of our prestige in the society.
  • Shekhar Gupta: [Furiously] Prestige? What prestige, dad? In whose house an innocent girl has been raped, does he talk about respect? The one who has killed a helpless weak girl in the hospital, does he talk about respect? The one who thinks about the death of his daughter-in-law, does he talk about respect? Where is the respect? Where is that respect? It is better to die in shame than to live with such dignity. How many more crimes will you commit to cover up one crime? You don't even know that you have stooped so low! Today I'm proud that I'm Damini's husband, but I feel ashamed of calling myself Kedarnath Gupta's son!
  • [Gupta tries to put his hand on Shekhar who hurls it away]
  • Shekhar Gupta: Don't touch me!
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): [Trying to intimidate Shekhar] Don't you even have the manners how to behave with your father...
  • Shekhar Gupta: [Grabbing Chaddha by his collar in a threatening tone] Enough, Chaddha, Enough! I feel like killing you right here. But I won't kill anyone, and I will regret for this.
  • [Shekhar leave the room and stops in between]
  • Shekhar Gupta: And listen up all of you, tomorrow during the hearing I'll be making my statement in Damini's favour. Do what you can.
  • Inspector Kadam: [Cornering Damini] That's it Damini, better give up. Come quietly right now to the police station or I'll have to use force.
  • Govind: [Walking on to the scene and taunting Kadam] Great job Kadam. You showed a hell lot of agility.
  • [Damini runs over to him]
  • Govind: So you've finally been promoted. Department has handed manhandling of women to you.
  • Inspector Kadam: [Smiling in irritation] Forgotten the law just coz you've left practicing Govind? I've an arrest warrant for this woman.
  • Govind: I too have a piece of government paperwork, called STAY ORDER.
  • [Govind hands over the papers to Kadam]
  • Govind: Now till the next hearing, Damini isn't going anywhere. So, go report the ones on whose duty you're currently up to and think of a better scheme.
  • Inspector Kadam: [In a grudging tone handing the Stay Order back to Govind] I'll see you again Govind.
  • Govind: [Sarcastically] Whenever you wish to, wherever you wish to. Just send a couple of constables over and I'll be available.
  • [Teasing Kadam on watching him slip]
  • Govind: Watch your step Kadam, this case is a bit complicated. If you aren't careful, you'll go rolling over to nowhere.
  • [Govind consoling a crying Damini]
  • Govind: No Damini, now it's their turn to weep. Common, smile.
  • Shekhar's Uncle: [Crying on being told about Govind taking Damini's case] We're dead and buried, nobody can save us now. I am telling you, there're gonna be only two outcomes, either we're going to Jaunpur or straight away to mental asylum.
  • Mr. Gupta (Shekhar's dad): [Irritated] Jaunpur, Jaunpur, Jaunpur! Have you gone paranoid?
  • Shekhar's Uncle: I am merely paranoid. Soon, all of us are gonna go insane. Our dear Mr. Chaddha over here, remember what he said ? That girls like Damini are nothing more than dragonflies in his pants. Didn't you say so!
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): [Replying in an angry tone] First of all you better learn to stay inside your clothing.
  • [Chaddha gets up from his sofa and flings his hair backwards]
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): Last time he was so entangled in dates that he forgot his way to the court. The same thing is going to happen this time too. I will press such a nerve that he will scream.
  • Damini Gupta: [Screaming after seeing Urmi's corpse] Urmi! What happened to her? All of a sudden?
  • Inspector Kadam: Urmi couldn't bear the trauma of this case. She contemplated to suicide for this very reason. Here's her suicide note, we've just done the postmortem.
  • Damini Gupta: [Crying] It can't be, I don't believe this.
  • Inspector Kadam: What's unbelievable about it? The truth is right here in the letter.
  • Damini Gupta: [to Govind arriving on the scene drunk] Govind, look what's just happened.
  • Govind: Damini, read out Kadam sir's truth on this matter.
  • Damini Gupta: [Reading the suicide note] "I can't tolerate this humiliation anymore. The pain is only increasing with each passing day. So I am giving up my life on my own will".
  • [Damini realises the discrepancies]
  • Damini Gupta: This is a complete lie. This helpless girl didn't even know how to write.
  • Inspector Kadam: What nonsense are you saying? This letter was found in Urmi's hand.
  • Govind: [Replying to Kadam] It's you who's speaking nonsense, uttermost. Urmi's hands have a pool of blood on them and this "TRUTH" of yours doesn't even have a bloodstain. Such similar questions will be asked in the court, lots of them. And then I'll ensure you too write this same letter for yourself.
  • Inspector Kadam: [Snatching the suicide note in a harsh tone] Govind, you're accusing a duty bound police official. You know the consequences of messing with the police department ?
  • Govind: [Sarcastically] Of course I do, in regards to you as well as your police lockup, where several "courageous" warriors display their strength on a guy whose hand and legs are gagged. Tell me Kadam, have you ever gone to a zoo ?
  • Inspector Kadam: [Irritated and confused] What?
  • Govind: Zoo, a place where even kids throw peanuts upon a caged lion. That's a different thing. If you'll dare faceoff with a lion in open ground, the false notion of your manhood would be gone once and for all.
  • Inspector Kadam: [Raging] Govind... ..
  • Govind: [In a calm voice] Don't be too loud, preserve this heavy voice of yours for the courtroom, you've to answer a hell lot of questions over there.
  • [Kadam leaves]
  • Govind: And listen up, go tell Chaddha that Govind is making a comeback to the court.
  • Govind: [Cross examining Mangesh in the witness box] So Mangesh, Mr. Gupta has been your employer for the past 5 years.
  • Mangesh: Yes.
  • Govind: And he entrusts you with the repairs and maintenance of all the cars in his household ?
  • Mangesh: Absolutely.
  • Govind: So on the eve of Holi, when one of the cars went missing, Mr. Gupta must've been desperately searching for you isn't it.
  • Mangesh: [In a slip of tongue] No Sir, the keys of the gypsy aren't with me.
  • Govind: [Catching him speak the truth] How did you know the car was the gypsy ?
  • Mangesh: [Looking at Chaddha and unable to think] I came to know about it later that the gypsy was missing.
  • Govind: You mean you came to know that Rakesh used the gypsy later on, correct ?
  • [as Mangesh is still unable to answer]
  • Govind: Ok Mangesh, you can go.
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): [Chastising Mangesh in a lowered voice] Bloody fool.
  • Govind: [Noticing Chaddha] Hold it Mangesh, it seems Mr. Chadda wants to say something. Mr. Chadda ?
  • Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer): No nothing.
  • [Scene cuts to Kadam in the witness box]
  • Govind: [Cross examining Kadam in a mocking manner] Inspector Kadam, is it possible that Urmi cut her throat with the suicide note in her hands ?
  • Inspector Kadam: [Caught lying on his previous testimony] I... .I... ..
  • Govind: [In a funny manner] Inspector Kadam I don't understand this I, I, I stuttering language.
  • [Govind turns to Chaddha]
  • Govind: Mr. Chadda are you able to comprehend what Inspector Kadam is saying? Ohh I forgot, you don't even understand common sensible things.
  • [Govind turns to the judge]
  • Govind: Your Honor, Urmi's ration card had her thumbprint not her signature. Unfortunately her assassins failed to take a note of this, in the same manner as Mr. Chaddha over here doesn't understand common sense.
