Democracy mein itnaa free spirited honaa acceptable nahiin hai

Film: Kabir Singh

Year of release: 2019

Spoken by: Lawyer Vipul (Harsh Singh)

Spoken to: Karan Singh i.e. Kabir's brother (Arjun Bajwa)

Dialogue writer: Siddharth Singh & Garima Wahal 

Kabir is accused of having operated while under the influence of alcohol. As his lawyer Vipul is firming up his defence strategy, he tells Karan, that he has sealed all possible holes, but how would they handle Kabir's temperamental and unpredictable behaviour?

"uskaa kyaa kare.n? Democracy mein itnaa free spirited honaa acceptable nahiin hai...You'll have to control this"

"उसका क्या करें? डेमोक्रेसी में इतना फ्री स्पिरिटिड होना अक्सेप्टबल नहीं है...यू विल हैव टू कण्ट्रोल दिस"

I love these lovely counter-intuitive lines about democracy. Utpal Dutt had another lovely line written by Rahi Masoom Raza. You can read it here.
