In triumphant slow motion, Jimmy pounds out the opening to "Yaad Aa Raha Hai." This is meant to bring the house down, and most of the actors play along. However, they're not fooling anyone. We get a few minutes of everyone pretending to play their instruments with expert precision, but to be honest, I don't think they really were. *cough*

We see Sam "going insane" (that is giggling, and pretending to shoot himself with his fingers) and P. N. getting angry enough to smash bottles of hootch on his bar. We can assume that he calls in the heavies, as Vasco, Bob, and a couple other idiots walk into the concert hall with rifles and machine guns. Nice security, once again fellas! Vasco lines up his shot, and is spotted by Raju. How everyone else managed to not notice this is beyond me. Anyway, Raju sees that Jimmy is about to take a slug, so he performs a Jedi leap (with obligatory somersault) to land in front of Jimmy right when the shot is fired.

The shot starts a stampede as hundreds of rabid disco fans all hurl themselves at the exits. Jimmy cradles his fallen master on the stage and tries to figure out what just happened. A few of the gunmen open fire on the lights and blast a few of them out before deciding they'd better leave too. How they managed to miss Jimmy on the stage is also a point of confusion. He's certainly not obstructed in any way. Ah well.

Rita fights her way back into the room and joins the men on stage. Jimmy and Raju share a tearful goodbye and sing their old song (complete with full orchestra backup) for about fifteen seconds, then Raju drops dead. Rita tries to comfort Jimmy, but we've gone way too far for that! Jimmy looks at the camera with a face full of Disco Rage, and we all know that someone's getting their butt kicked.

We cut to the Oberoi Compound where all of the villains of the film are conveniently gathered in one room. The crew decided not to mike the shot (good going, guys!), so we can hear P. N. saying something off in the distance, but I don't think it was very important anyway. A quick shot outside shows us a car speeding towards the house.

Inside, the men notice the headlights outside, and the car comes smashing through the patio doors. Jimmy gets out, a few people say his name, and that's all the excuse that Jimmy needs to start his rampage. We have an odd, off-center extreme close-up of Jimmy screaming, then he unleashes a torrent of white-hot, deadly disco-fu on everyone present.

The fighting is, well "exciting" is the word I'm looking for. "Predictable" might be better. Jimmy deals with all of the extras, handing out kicks and slaps to all that cross his path. Bob puts up a bit more of a fight, but disappears for a bit as Jimmy deals with Vasco. Jimmy whacks Vasco's legs a few times with a field hockey stick, just to make things even for Vasco's earlier treatment. Vasco is tossed over the bar and passes out. It isn't clear if he's dead or just knocked out. Either way, he's out of the movie.

Finally Bob is the only one left in the room, and gets the "tiger claw" attack right to the face. Once he goes down, Jimmy leaps into the air in slow motion and lands on Bob's chest with both feet, killing him.


If any of that sounded familiar, it might be because it was completely ripped off from Bruce Lee's movie, Enter the Dragon.


P. N. re-enters the room with a gun and takes a shot at Jimmy, completely missing a wide-open stationary target that is a few feet away. Jimmy leaps into the air and flips towards him and they begin fighting. They end up outside, with P. N. taking punch after punch to the head. He finally grabs what looks to be the bumper of the car that crashed into the house and swings it at Jimmy. Jimmy dodges and kicks Oberoi away, causing the bumper to contact some helpfully exposed electrical equipment nearby. P. N. Oberoi is electrocuted, and Jimmy stands victorious in front of a disco ball.

We cut to Jimmy meeting Rita in their little field, as the reprise of "I Am A Disco Dancer" begins playing. Rita is very affectionate with Jimmy, which came a surprise to me. After all, he did drive her brother insane, and killed her father. Ah well!

A short clip of Jimmy performing the song with his ridiculous headband on sings us out of the movie.

 

The End!
