Then came Nandita (Priyanka Chopra). She wasn't a moll or a village belle. She was a cabaret dancer with eyes that had seen too much and a smirk that promised nothing. Bikram saw her and wanted to conquer. Bala saw her and wanted to protect. For the first time, the unbreakable bond showed a crack.

Their rule was simple: don't hurt the common man, and never betray the brotherhood. They owned the clubs, the trucks, the policemen. They danced to "Tune Maari Entriyaan" like the world was watching, because it usually was.

Bala didn't flinch. He opened his arms. "Then shoot. But remember, Bikram... the first piece of bread I ever ate, you gave me half."

As the handcuffs clicked, Bikram looked at Bala and whispered, "We are still Gunday, na?"
