'I thank God'
'for not making my son a crook like the Black Thief.'
'He steals all over the city.'
'I feel like thrashing him like anything.'
'Listen'
'I hope you're not doing anything nasty like that Black Thief.'
'Don't ever spoil Ibn Battuta's name.'
'That's because..'
'Come on, swear on me and say that you aren't a thief.'
Mother..
'Genie, give this back to him.'
'Ask him to put it back from where he brought it.'
'And tell him one more thing.'
'If he wants to get me something'
'tell him to earn it with his hardwork.'
Mother
I'm tired of running around like this.
I want to lead an honest life, too.
But I'm constrained, you know.
Please forgive me.
Please forgive me, Mother.
In order to meet the King
I have do this robbery.
I must do it.
In the last one year, the Black Thief
has stolen things from these areas.
It's not difficult to capture a man, if he steals
but it's impossible to catch a shadow.
And the Black Thief moves just like a shadow.
'You can't find my footprints, you don't know where I live.'
'How can you find me? Think about it.'
You can't find my footprints.
You don't know where I live.
How can you find me? Think about it.
'I move like a shadow, I don't leave behind any trace.'
'Remember, I'm going to catch you off guard.'
I move like a shadow
I don't leave behind any trace.
What are you doing?
Yes, a man can move like a shadow
but even shadows have habits.
I'm trying to find out
the underlying pattern of the robberies
to understand his methodology of stealing.
I got it. - What?
The Black Thief has carried out most of his robberies
in these three areas.
These three areas are the richest in Baghdad.
And everybody knows that
the Black Thief steals only from the rich.
And there's one more common thing among these three areas.
What is it?
These three areas are connected by a road
in both the sides of this road, dwells the middle-class of Baghdad.
And all the roofs of these middle-class houses
are interconnected.
What's your point?
After stealing, he must be escaping through these roofs.
He knows every nook and corner of these areas.
One more surprising thing about this thief is
he only steals precious things.
According to the map, there are three palaces here.
Over there. Here. Here.
And the Black Thief is going to show up
at this museum.
That's because
the Farsi Queen's Crown has been safeguarded here.
How can you be so sure that the Black Thief
will try to steal this?
Because this is the nearest house to that narrow street.
And after stealing this crown
he will escape through the roofs of these houses.
Where are you going?
I am going to nab the Black Thief.
How do we get to know that the Black Thief
will steal the crown today?
It is too easy for the Black Thief
to reach the museum.
So, he will not delay in stealing the crown
because it might be scared that he will be sent
to some other museum.
It is not that easy to nab the Black Thief.
So, even I will come along.
You don't have to come along.
If the Black Thief is clever
I am smarter than him.
Princess, I cannot believe
that you are going to be the queen.
It feels as if it is a dream, Princess.
When the dream comes true
it turns into a responsibility, Piddi.
I have a huge responsibility.
The responsibility of changing the life
of the ordinary people of Baghdad.
Princess, I feel proud that you are my friend.
You are trying to change
the fate of our country at such a young age!
I am feeling very happy!
I am in a mood to celebrate.
That reminds me of something.
I got reminded of a poem written by my friend.
Please go ahead. - Yes.
'I have travelled a long distance'
'and faced a lot of difficulties' - That is amazing!
'Make sure that you celebrate carefully.' - Okay..
'Because people tend to tear their pants'
'after the celebrations.'
That was such a bad poem!
Isn't he the same friend whom you often talk about?
What is his name?
His name is.. - Even the Black Thief
keeps reciting the poems that are really bad.
He had told me a poem. But I am not able to recall it.
What was that poem?
I am not able to recall it.
"The incidents that happened"
"when we"
"met each other.."
"The incidents.."
It is okay if you are not able to remember the poem.
I think you are missing the poet a lot.
Princess, I hope you have not fallen in love..
Piddi, don't talk rubbish.
The Black Thief and I are just friends.
He has helped me a lot.
How can a princess and a Black Thief be friends!
But if it is more than a friendship
you can always tell me.
Piddi, it is nothing like that.
He helped me to save father.
My dream is going to be fulfilled because of him.
The dream of becoming the queen of Baghdad.
Glory to God..
The Black Thief has changed you so much!
Piddi, don't trouble me!
He has helped me a lot so I must thank him, right?
Yes.
So, I am going to meet him and thank him.
You are going right now, at this time! - Yes.
Piddi, there is no particular time
to meet friends.
And don't you worry about me.
I will be back soon, okay?
Princess, at least listen to me..
Please forgive me, Mom.
I know that you hate the Black Thief and his line of work.
But uncle and aunt have asked me
to steal the crown of Queen of Faras.
If I don't do the task given by them
they won't let you live in peace.
But I promise you.
I'll quit being the Black Thief very soon.
I need to distract those guards.
What was that noise?
Listen. Go and look over there, I'll go over there.
'How will I go inside?'
'I'll make this fat man lead me inside.'
Something is over there!
The crown of Faras' queen is definitely in that chest.
Please forgive me, Queen of Faras
but it is your fault.
You shouldn't have removed your crown.
You removed it and now, I have to rob it. Right?
What? Oh, my God!
The lock of this chest
has been made in Aligarh.
It is very difficult to break it.
I don't care how strong this lock is
I will block it.
I mean, I will unlock it. I will unlock it.
This crown is mine now.
O-Oh, God!
Akbar! - Naazneen
why did you call me here?
Don't you know that I'd be busy with work now?
Forget your work. Come with me. - Where?
Come with me.
Please sit. Sit, I say.
I did.
Akbar, you work really hard.
You might be tired. So, I've brought you something!
'I know it very well'
'that you like 'Badam Ka Halwa'.
"Habibi.."
"I swear by the gold coins."
"Habibi.."
My dear Naazneen
did you call me here to give me 'Badam Ka Halwa'?
I called you to feed you 'Badam Ka Halwa'
but I just remembered something I want you to do.
What is it?
Tell me. - Akku..
I heard that Sultan Shahnawaz has decided
to drill oil wells in Baghdad
and he is looking for strong men to do it.
If they work hard, they could even get a job in the palace.
Are you going to dig a well?
What? Please don't. You tease me all the time.
I was talking about Gullu.
Gullu?
He isn't young.
Don't lie about him.
I swear on the 'Badam Ka Halwa'.. - No..
No. Don't stop me.
If you do this for me, I promise you
that I will fall sick next week.
All right, Naazneen.
Let me see what I can do for you.
Close your eyes. - Okay.
Feed me.
It's delicious, Naazneen.
The Black Thief has kept me waiting for a long time.
There is no sign of him.
I was told that he'd come here.
Oh, God! Who is he?
I have to take the crown and so, I should take care of this man.
If I leave without the crown
uncle and aunt won't spare mother.
I have to think of an idea.
I have to pull off the same trick
that I did to the soldiers.
Your trick won't get the better of me, Black Thief!
Oh, no!
You didn't fall for it! You are not only strong but also clever.
