Father.
If you are here, then who was that?
I do not understand. Who are you talking about?
He..
Something is fishy.
I just met you.
Father, you will have to ask the guards
to check the palace right now.
I just saw a person who looked exactly like you.
Forgive me, Your Majesty.
I apologise to you for the princess's prank.
You see, she was joking. You are too much, Princess.
Wonderful..
For a moment, I thought there was actually
a lookalike of mine in the palace.
Yes..
What happened to your clothes?
What is wrong? They are fine.
No.
Y-Your Majesty..
The princess is soon going to be the queen.
So, she wants to meet the common people of Baghdad
dressed up as a commoner herself
to understand their problems. Hence, she is in this attire.
I expected the same from you.
I have made the right decision for Baghdad
by declaring you the queen.
What happened about your deal? We have to pay off the debts.
We do not have any money to buy groceries either.
Mother, the deal did not happen.
So, I did not get any money.
But why?
Mother, the one I was supposed to crack the deal with
wanted me to do illegal work.
So, I refused.
You did a good thing.
I always pray to the Lord that no matter what
your honesty should never be compromised.
The money earned with illegal work is jinxed.
And we belong to the family of Ibn Battuta.
You have made your mother proud.
Those who sell their conscience for work
become like that worthless masked thief.
I cannot imagine how embarrassed his mother must be.
If I were his mother.. - Mother.. Let it go.
You wanted groceries, right? I will arrange for the money.
The groceries will be here by tomorrow evening.
You will not face any trouble.
My son really loves me.
But we will have to pay our debts.
We will have to do something.
You eat. Dear, take this.
'I will have to get the money from uncle somehow.'
'But aunt is the hurdle.'
'I have not been to the shop all these days.'
'She will not let me take the money so easily.'
The feather of the golden pheasant!
My brother! Where did you find this precious feather?
I got this from a hunter's house.
100 years ago, he hunted a golden pheasant.
The golden pheasant went extinct
but this last feather of a golden pheasant was left.
Father. - Yes.
Yes.
What if this feather of the golden pheasant is fake?
Check again,
or else mother will teach you a good lesson.
Father!
You always talk negatively. Shut up!
So, tell me, Uncle. Would you like to add
this precious feather to your collection of valuables?
No.. No, Aladdin.
I will not fall for you this time.
You sell things to me, calling them valuable
but they turn out to be useless.
Uncle. - Yes.
This time, it truly is an item of value.
Uncle, I did not tell you the secret behind it.
This feather helps attract women.
Think about it, Uncle.
You will be surrounded by beauties.
Father. What happened? - Nothing.
Nothing at all..
Uncle, wear white the next time you dream.
It suits you better.
Wonderful!
How did you know what I saw in my dream?
Because I know how to fool you.
Well done! - Father! - What did you say?
I-I meant,
only a fool would reject this feather, Uncle.
Aladdin, tell me how much this costs.
Uncle, only 10 gold coins for you.
All right. If you insist, I will buy this feather
for four gold coins. Take this.
Move!
I swear on gold coins
let alone four gold coins, I would not pay a dime
for this useless feather.
I do not have a better pawn than the archer
in order to get rid of the King of Baghdad.
And he will have to abduct the King as well.
That will happen, my Lord.
That archer will not miss his aim this time.
As per your plan
the archer must have entered the palace through
the secret tunnel by now.
My Lord, as per your orders, our men have been
appointed as guards in the palace.
And they will take the archer
to the King's chamber.
And what about the guards posted
outside the King's chamber?
I sent them away yesterday itself, my Lord.
Now, our men have been posted outside the King's chamber too.
This means,
our pawn will not face too much trouble
in getting to the King's chamber.
Once the King is in my clutches
I shall make this lookalike of the King
sit on the throne of Baghdad.
King Shahnawaz.
Useless? No, Aunt. This is no ordinary feather.
Dear, I am no ordinary aunt either.
My name is Naazneen.
You may fool an idiot with this feather of an owl.
But you cannot fool me.
My brother! My mother only looks like a fool, but she is not.
Right, Mother?
Well.. All right, then. If you do not accept the deal
then I will take it to someone else.
Yes, go on. You will get 40 gold coins instead of four.
I need some money. You can deduct it from my salary.
Sure, my child. But you will get paid only if you work.
You have not come to the shop since a month.
Work for one whole month at the shop without pay.
And then I will think about paying you.
Forgive me, Aunt, but I have a household to run.
If you cannot pay me, then I will look for another job.
Go ahead.
Let me see
who hires a thief, after all.
And not an ordinary thief.
The masked thief!
There is a reward of 50,000 gold coins on him.
50,000!
You want to leave, right? We will send you off.
But not in an ordinary fashion.
We will send you off in such a way
that even the mother of the masked thief
will know how cunning a criminal her son is.
'Those who earn by illegal means'
'become like that scoundrel, that selfish masked thief.'
'I cannot imagine how embarrassed her mother must be.'
'If I were his mother.. - Mother..'
My brother.. - The masked thief!
Piddi, I am telling the truth.
I saw father's lookalike in the palace.
Princess, you are not completely conscious yet.
Just have this juice. It is medicated. Drink it.
You are worrying needlessly. Just go to sleep.
Or you will fall sick.
And if you fall sick, I will fall sick too.
And if I fall sick
then His Majesty will have to look after you.
And if he looks after you, then who will look after Baghdad?
Baghdad will be ruined.
So, if you wish Baghdad well, then go to sleep.
No, Piddi. I must go to father right now.
Princess..
'It is the King's command to arrest'
'traitors like you immediately.'
'Ruksaar!'
Officer Akbar.
It is now time to make the real move in chess.
Take Junmun to the King's chamber.
Yes, my Lord.
Come, sir.
'Father must be in his chamber.'
I swear on gold coins, someone has rightly said
that a donkey can carry weight, but cannot wash clothes.
Wring them properly. - Yes.
Or I will wring you. - Okay.
Aunt.
What is the matter? Your attitude seems changed.
Today, the criminal has surrendered to the witch.
I mean, to the lady.
Go now, and get to work.
And do not take a single day off.
Aunt.. I..
I am here to tell you that I do not want to work for you.
What did you say?
Could you be a bit loud?
I am here to tell you that I do not want to work for you.
You may do what you want. I am not scared of your threats.
Really? Let me bring you to your senses right now.
Ruksaar! Ruksaar! - Mother! Mother!
What happened, Aunt? Why did you stop?
Yell out to her. Mother!
First, you took advantage of my helplessness
and made me steal to fill your pockets.
Then, you took advantage of my fear
and made me the masked thief.
But it is enough now.
You may threaten to tell my mother or the police
I do not care.
Well done!
What did you say!
I swear on gold coins, you are acting too smart.
When the police arrest you and thrash you
you will come to your senses, Aladdin.
All right, then, call them.
I will tell them that I did commit thefts
but you two would sell the stolen goods.
I will be beaten up
but you two will not be spared either.
Well.. Do you think they will believe you?
So what if they do not believe me?
The reward money will be over someday.
But I can get you gold
and wealth all my life.
Think about it.
Do you want to kill the hen that lays golden eggs
or keep it safely for the rest of your lives?
I may even agree to work,
but I want money first.
Aladdin does not know who he is messing with.
Now I will make a move after which
Aladdin will be stunned.
King Shahnawaz
it is time you pay for all your atrocities.
You did not value my loyalty.
You got me thrown out of Baghdad.
You took my Ruksaar
away from me, for good.
You ruined my life.
You will be punished for it.
Father.
Father, where are you?
Father.
He is usually in his chamber at this time.
Where could he be?
Father.
Father never leaves his book open.
Father?
Whoever is behind that curtain, come out.
