However, Samar sneaks outdoor once a week, and Jai manages to befriend him during this time also manages to perform his plan. Samar has fallen in love with Aaliya after performing with her in the circus, but cannot express it. This leads to a rift between the brothers. Jai tries to take advantage of this, but Sahir finds out and thwarts Jai's plan to stop them. He decides the only way to catch the brothers is in the act. Sahir & Samar pull off their final bank heist, and escaped. However, the following day, Jai manages to corner them as they're making their way out of town. Samar is hesitant to run when Aaliya shows up, begging him to stop. Sahir surrenders to Jai, asking him to spare Samar and let him take the blame. Jai agrees, but right after, Sahir jumps off the bridge. Samar jumps, too, holding Sahir's hand refusing to let him go. Eventually, the two of them jump off the bridge together, apparently falling to their death. Finally Western Bank of Chicago is shut down as a result of the heists, while Aaliya is shown still performing for the Great Indian Circus. The film ends with the title song.
