“Ah!” exclaimed Don. “Be careful, careful… I am the most wanted man in the world! Don’t you know DOCTOR??”
“Yes Don, I’m doing my best. Don’t worry, these are minor bruises. It’ll take some time to heal though. Some weeks maybe.”
“We do need to hurry up doctor. We have very important business deals coming up! Time and tide wait for no man!”
“DON SAMAY KA INTEZAAR NAHI KARTA… SAMAY DON KA INTEZAAR KARTA HAI.”
(Don doesn’t wait for time… but time waits for the Don)
Saying this in his trademark nonchalant style, the Don got up.
“Don’t worry Narang; I will be present at the deals. The doctor doesn’t realise that – he’s just filled a few cuts in the DON – not his everyday patient.”
“You’re right there” said the doctor. “Not many pay me a fee of…”
“S-s-s-s-h-h-h-h doctor… don’t tell it too loud… I-T is just around the corner!”
“Huh… oh yes, yes… may I leave now?”
“Of course! Please do! Be my guest!”
As the doctor was about to leave, the Don called him back.
“Hey just turn around will you doctor? I need to tell you something!”
The doctor broke into a sweat, “Y-y-y-yes?”
“The next time… wherever you are… whenever you visit the Don… make sure you have ONLY your medical equipment with you, please?”
“H-h-u-h?”
And before he knew it, there was a bullet hole right through his head.
Narang was shocked. “DON, WHAT THE HELL…?”
“Mac, just check the side of his suitcase please…”
Sure enough, there was the tiniest of hidden cameras.
“DON KE SAATH BE-IMAANI KARNA MATLAB MAUT KE SAATH WAFADARI NIBHANA.”
(To betray the Don is as good as being loyal to death.)
The Don walked up to Narang, “Next time you hire a doctor, make sure he’s dishonest enough! At least for your sake Narang! And yes… the next time you make this mistake, I will shoot YOU, and not the doctor” said Don, smiling as he walked away.
“HE JUST SLIPS THROUGH OUR FINGERS EVERYTIME!” roared the CBI chief.
“We must admit he is smart…” was the reply of a not-so-smart officer.
“Ok, so why have you joined the CBI then, if you’re such a BLOCKHEAD!” roared Malik again.
“Now is not the time to fight… it is time to act… we need a solid plan AND a backup this time!” said Roma.
“I believe he is going to make a good deal with that sapphire…”
“…and we need to bring that back!” completed Roma. “We need to gatecrash the meeting Don is going to have with the drug lords…”
“…for that we need to know the location!” a miffed Malik quirked.
“Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I already know the place.”
Everyone was shocked. They all looked at Roma.
“Don’t stare… has it ever occurred to you that I might have a LITTLE intelligence?”
“Malaysia… but then how…”
“No Malik sir… we need to speak ALONE… the both of us only…”
“As you wish,” said Malik as they walked through to the sound-proof room.
“Sir, one of our officers is an informer for Don.”
“WHAT? How ridiculous…”
“NO! I am not being ridiculous sir… hasn’t it ever occurred to you how the Don is ALWAYS one step ahead of us, how he ALWAYS knows what our plans are?”
“Well now that you mention it…”
“Sir I need YOU… to pick just 2 more officers for this mission. 2 that YOU trust the most… because I trust YOU sir, and no one else,” Roma said with a sparkle in her eyes.
“Well, I suggest you pick officer Roshan and officer… well Seema. But they are not going to be enough for this mission! We need at least 10 or 15 more!”
“I already have full support from DCP De Silva. He will bring his troops along as well!”
“DCP De Silva? Oh Special Crime Branch of Police? Do you think he is efficient enough?”
“Sir… 15 years of dealing with gangsters… I think is testimony enough…”
“Ok Roma, I trust you. But remember one thing – I am putting the entire responsibility of this mission on you. If you fail, we both lose our heads. I hope you understand?”
“Don’t worry sir. I won’t let him off the hook this time… at ANY cost.”
“But wait… you’ve already mentioned the location…”
“I was bluffing sir… it’s not Kuala Lumpur… in fact… it is in Mumbai only! But I need complete secrecy… I need people to believe we’re looking for the Don in Kuala Lumpur.”
“Consider it done. Come out and announce your two officers, and your plans!”
“Yes sir, and one more thing…”
“…I will not take anything less for this sapphire… as you know… DON KE SAATH TOL-MOL KARNA – TUMHARE ZINDAGI KA TOL-MOL KARNE KE BARABAR HAI”
(To bargain with the Don is to bargain with your life)
“Narang please talk to this silly man – I have no time for cheap talk!”
As Narang talks with the proposed buyer, the Don was dialling another number.
The receiver was picked up by Malik.
“Who’s this?”
“DON…”
Malik made frenetic gestures for them to tap the phone call.
“Malik SAAB, it’s no use trying to tap this call; it will be of no use to you!”
“No it is – you are in Kuala Lumpur!”
“Yes very clever Malik! I want to speak to Roma… give her the phone!”
“ROMA?”
“Malik! Please do not waste time! I am also making a business deal here you know! Please give the phone to Roma!”
“What if I…” before Malik could complete, Roma took the phone from him.
She gestured to Malik to keep quiet. “Yes, Don?”
“AH… MERI JUNGLI BILLI… how are you?”
“Cut the crap Don, if you have anything important to tell me, like WHERE you are going to get the deal done, please let me know!”
“Oh yes! In fact I am going to get it done in Mumbai! You must be wondering why a madman like me is haggling for a deal in Mumbai in KUALA LUMPUR! Well, I am a bit mad, and you know that! And the location is at a premier hotel in Churchgate. NOW – I want you to stop me, if you can!”
“Don’t worry Don, we’ll be ready for you!”
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Yes Roma… but hey… if you want to gatecrash my party, I don’t want your namby-pamby police whatever on my back! You come alone! Or else…”
“OR ELSE WHAT HA DON?? WHAT??”
“Roma aunty please help me, save me please!”
“DEEPU…!!!”
“Yes Roma… oh did I forget? I met Deepu on the way to Malaysia… thought I’d take him for a ride!”
“DON YOU…”
“DON KE DUSHMAN KI SABSE BADI GALTI YEH HAI… KI WHO DON KE DUSHMAN HAI… HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!”
(The biggest mistake of Don’s enemies… is that they’re Don’s enemies)
“So in case you don’t want me to make a mistake with Deepu… you better don’t make a mistake with the cops ah!”
The phone was disconnected… then there was a long silence…
“Don – this time… I’ll make sure… I will KILL you!”
The chase continues!
“Yes Don, I’m doing my best. Don’t worry, these are minor bruises. It’ll take some time to heal though. Some weeks maybe.”
“We do need to hurry up doctor. We have very important business deals coming up! Time and tide wait for no man!”
“DON SAMAY KA INTEZAAR NAHI KARTA… SAMAY DON KA INTEZAAR KARTA HAI.”
