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 Amrish Puri's face]
Govind : that too is gonna be blistering.
[Annoyed at Amrish Puri's henchman drawing a machete]
Govind : 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 Amrish Puri with his fists]
Govind : And when this two and a half kg hand lands on someone, he doesn't just wake up,
[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 Amrish Puri] 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 Sunny Deol by the shoulder, before being threatened to leave]

Inspector Kadam : [Cornering Meenakshi Sheshadri] 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 Vijayendra Ghatge] Great job Kadam. You showed a hell lot of agility.
[Meenakshi Sheshadri 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
[Hands over the papers to Vijayendra Ghatge]
Govind : . Now till the next hearing, Damini isn't going anywhere. So, go report the ones on whose duty you're currently upto and think of a better scheme.
Inspector Kadam : [In a grudging tone handing the Stay Order back to Sunny Deol] 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 Vijayendra Ghatge 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.
[Consoling a crying Meenakshi Sheshadri]
Govind : No Damini, now it's their turn to weep. Common, smile.

Damini Gupta : [Screaming after seeing Prajakta Kulkarni'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 : [Sunny Deol arrives on the scene drunk] Govind Ji, 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".
[Realising 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 and that's a fact.
Govind : [Replying to Vijayendra Ghatge] 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.
[Just as Vijayendra Ghatge is leaving]
Govind : And listen up, go tell Chaddha that Govind is making a comeback to the judiciary.

Govind : [Cross examining Viju Khote 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 Amrish Puri 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 Viju Khote is still unable to answer]
Govind : Ok Mangesh, you can go.
Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer) : [Chastising Viju Khote in a lowered voice] Bloody fool.
Govind : [Noticing Amrish Puri] Hold it Mangesh, it seems Mr. Chadda wants to say something. Mr. Chadda ?
Indrajit Chaddha (Scheming Lawyer) : No nothing.
[Scene cuts to Vijayendra Ghatge in the witness box]
Govind : [Cross examining Vijayendra Ghatge 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.
[Turns to Amrish Puri]
Govind : Mr. Chadda are you able to comprehend what Inspector Kadam is saying ? Ohh I forgot, you don't even understand common sensible things.
[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. Chadda over here doesn't understand common sense.
