amongst all the foreign language (Urdu) I heard the word Baksheesh.

Baksheesh is palm greasing and the way of the world. Some one knew baksheesh was required and chose other currencies than US$ for the illegal payment

Was it Urdu or Farsi? Were these Iranians speaking? I didn't see the video. I honestly don't know.
