 ==Colt Python==
-Middle Salim ([[Ashutosh Lobo Gajiwala]]) carries a 4 inch barrel [[Colt Python]] in .357 Magnum (judging by the ribbed barrel, a feature that is unique to the Colt). He first uses it to execute Maman ([[Ankur Vikal]]) in the brothel and later uses it to threaten Middle Jamal ([[Tanay Chheda]]) telling him that he's claiming Middle Latika ([[Tanvi Ganesh Lonkar]]) for himself (this heartbreaking moment helps Jamal answers the "Who invented the revolver?" question). Salim ([[Madhur Mittal]]) keeps a Python while working for Javed ([[Mahesh Manjrekar]]) as a hitman. Near the end, Salim dumps hundreds of thousands of Rupees (Indian Currency) into a bathtub and sits in the tub, allowing himself to be killed by Javed's men, but not before killing him with a shot from the gun.
