iskii aatmaa bahut light sleep letii hai, baar baar jaag jaatee hai

Film : Shagird 
Year of release : 2011
Spoken by : Hanumant Singh (Nana Patekar)
Spoken to : Mohit Kumar (Mohit Ahlawat)
Dialogue writer : Tigmanshu Dhulia/Kamal Pandey 

Hanumant has decided to eliminate the crack dealer Ali, since he has become an embarrassment to his political bosses. He traps Ali and then orders Mohit to shoot him. 

Mohit refuses to shoot Ali (Vishwajeet Pradhan). He says "I am not a waiter to take wrong orders".
An exasperated Hanumant responds with this line -
"are yaar iskii aatmaa bahut light sleep letii hai, baar baar jaag jaatee hai"

"अरे यार इसकी आत्मा बहुत लाइट स्लीप लेती है, बार बार जाग जाती है"

vo to aaloo hai sabhee khaate hain

Film : Shagird 
Year of release : 2011
Spoken by : Hanumant Singh (Nana Patekar)
Spoken to : Mohit Kumar (Mohit Ahlawat)
Dialogue writer : Tigmanshu Dhulia/Kamal Pandey 

Senior inspector Hanumant is getting acquainted with new recruit Mohit. He does this with typical Delhi University style ragging. 

A mixture of some questions and some activities. One of his questions is,

"aur kyaa shauq paalte ho?"

Mohit says,
"cricket kheltaa hoo.n sir"

Hanumant responds in classic Nana style

"cricket me.n kyaa Khaas hai. vo to aaloo hai, sabhee khaate hai.n"
"क्रिकेट में क्या ख़ास है. वो तो आलू है, सभी खाते हैं."

The ragging continues after that, but I quite liked the likening of a very common thing to potatoes in this manner. Of course, Nana's style makes the line sound better. 

And Shaagird was certainly more watchable than all the 100 crore movies of 2011 put together. These days when I have to damn a movie, shred it to pieces – all I tell my friends is that this is a 100 crores grosser. ZNMD doesn’t do 100 crores, but Bodyguard, Ready, Ra One, Don 2 and Agnipath do! So next time I refer to a movie as a 100 crores grosser – read between the lines :)
