The day for which not only India,

but the entire world has been waiting for is finally here.

The counting of votes for all seven phases

of the 12th Lok Sabha election will begin at 8:00 a.m.

It will be interesting to see

whose luck will shine today.

And whose hopes will be squashed.

Is the magic of PM Joshi,

who is known as the magician of Indian politics, still intact?

Or will Rani Bharti's coalition, who after Bihar,

emerged like a blazing comet in national politics, end his game?

It's 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

The counting of 12 rounds of the Lok Sabha election is over.

As of now, Prime Minister Joshi's National Vikas Front

is leading by 232 seats.

Yes. 232.

The locks of the jail will break, Naveen Kumar will be released.

The opposition, Rani Bharti's Rashtriya Jan Samman Morcha

is expected to get 209 seats.

[Everybody applauding]

Rani Bharti is giving PM Joshi's alliance a tough competition

by winning 40 seats by majority.

[Crackers bursting]

First of all, my heartiest congratulations to all the leaders

of Rashtriya Jan Samman Morcha

for the splendid performance in the election.

Our coalition has not only showed splendid performance.

But also brought down Mr Joshi's votes from 272 to 232.

The Prime Minister is trying his best.

But he is unable to amass votes.

That's why he hasn't made any claims of forming a government.

Today, I want to ask all of you.

What should we do?

What is the need to ask, Ms Rani?

We should form our government. What else?

As it is, Sunderraja has not given his letter of support to Joshi.

Ms Rani, I agree with Mr Balmukund completely.

We have worked very hard to defeat Joshi.

We should form the government.

Mr Joshi is on the backfoot, Ms Rani.

I think we should take advantage of that.

All of you know that Joshi will sit in the opposition.

But he won't let anybody else become the PM.

His weakness is an opportunity for us.

People should know that we are serious.

Wait and watch.

Manik Da and Sunderraja will join hands with us.

Even if Manik Da and Sunderraja join hands with us,

we will still not make the majority.

You don't worry about that, Mr Mishra.

Odisha, Telangana, Jharkhand.

And other small parties are in touch with me.

Instead of merging with the parties that didn't join your alliance

and forming an unstable government,

it's better that we don't form a government.

With such unreliable partners, leave alone 5 years,

we won't be able to run the government for even one month.

We should sit in the opposition.

Did Joshi teach you all that and send you here?

Will you take revenge of Begusarai's defeat with the entire coalition?

You are crossing the line, Jai.

How dare you!

You are questioning my allegiance.

Jai.

We have heard your opinions.

Now quiet.

The numbers are not in my favour.

I also feel that we should sit in the opposition.

Shall I say something, madam?

History doesn't remember Jyoti Basu

because he was the longest running CM.

But because in 1996 when he got a chance to be the PM,

his party rejected the offer.

And now, see the result.

The communist party is struggling for its survival.

It's a hung parliament, madam. Nobody has any clear mandate.

But somebody will have to form the government.

Everybody knows that Joshi is good

neither for the economy nor for the country.

Why are we backing off from the responsibility of ousting him?

Politics is about taking up the responsibility.

Not running away from it.

[Clock ticks]

Aditi is absolutely right, Ms Rani.

We should form our own government.

Central government as well as in Bihar.

[Dramatic music]

In Bihar?

Why in Bihar?

[Birds chirp]

Rani will rule over the central government.

And Jai will rule over Bihar.

What will you do?

I have asked Ms Rani to meet me.

I will talk to her personally.

Jai as Bihar's CM is a red line she cannot cross.

Did you get time with her to speak?

Kaveri.

There is no red line for Rani.

There is only family line for her.

If Jai becomes the CM,

whole of Bihar will suffer.

Jai cannot become Bihar's CM as long as I am there, Mr Gauri.

So the minister's sycophant finally decides to speak up.

But in his drawing room.

If you want to rule over Bihar as a lion, then let me know.

Do tomorrow's work today.

Do today's work now.

You never know what will happen in the next moment,

do something before it's too late.

[Riveting music]

[Crickets chirp]

Sister.

I swear. I didn't know about this condition.

But I knew.

Don't worry, mother.

You gave me the Chief Minister's post.

I will resign whenever you want.

Dear, I agreed with Mr Balmukund's condition

because I didn't have any other option.

After Mr Sunderraja left, the alliance became weaker.

And I needed Balmukund.

[Sighs heavily]

Jai and Aditi want to marry.

I agreed so that their alliance is fixed.

But...

I have already decided what both of you will do.

You...will handle Bihar.

And Jai...

come here.

You will handle Delhi.

Sir, because of the evidence you sent to Patna,

Joshi's alliance didn't receive majority.

Because of your brilliant idea

his anti-corruption agenda was exposed.

[Windchime chimes]

If Joshi gets majority,

he will make me dance to his tunes.

Strong opposition is good for democracy.

But a strong center is very bad. You know.

Yes.

I know

Joshi has sent you the proposal.

But whatever he says,

you won't get any real respect in his government.

It's time for

North's Rani and South's Raja

to shake hands.

But I have heard

that Ms Rani wants to become the PM.

What about the promise in the temple?

Sir, mother wanted to announce your name

as the Prime Minister in the press conference.

But you left from the press conference.

The promise broke.

I won't beat around the bush.

Rani Bharti will definitely be the Prime Minister.

But...

Mother has sent you an offer of Deputy PM.

And 5 cabinet berths of your choice.

20 crores.

Per MP.

Sunderraja is not alone.

39 MPs are with us.

We will have to convince them to switch alliance.

Look, my boy.

I don't have time.

Joshi is going to meet the President by tomorrow.

And he wants my support letter before that.

I will give you time till 6 p.m. today.

Just go talk to your mother and come.

I have rarely broken my promise in life or in politics.

But I cannot make Jai the chief minister.

I am breaking my promise, but I am doing the right thing.

I want you to support me.

I am telling you...

[Sighs heavily]

It will be better if we act prudently.

Manik Da has refused to be the deputy PM.

I think he is in touch with Sunderraja.

And who is Sunderraja in touch with?

Jai had gone to meet him.

In Chennai.

Well...

I got a call from Rashtrapati Bhavan.

They said they cannot give more time.

They want an answer by evening.

Or else they will give the offer to Rani Bharti.

What is to be done, sir?

[Dramatic music]

Answer...

[Riveting music]

I will have to give an answer.

Mother.

Get ready for the swearing-in ceremony.

Sunderraja has agreed.

Agreed?

How?

Nothing.

I explained to him that everybody's wellbeing lies in

joining hands with Rani Bharti.

He understood.

Mother,

we are going to form the government.

We will receive the message from Rashtrapati Bhavan soon.

Wear your Banarasi sari. The one you wore for Chhath Puja.

You will look like Goddess Durga.

Bless you, son.

[Dramatic music]

[Birds chirp]

Rishi.

Why are you wandering like a snake in these ruins?

Come.

[Blows smoke]

Mother is going to meet the President this evening.

Your aunt Rani will become the PM.

Your prophecy is going to come true.

Come on.

Come.

The next few days are going to be busy.

Once mother becomes the PM,

the first thing we will do is get an OC for this place.

You have built it splendidly.

Wow!

Brother, I couldn't arrange the money.

What do you mean?

I have given my word.

Tomorrow is the delivery.

You said it will be done.

What happened?

It's not easy to arrange for

such a big amount in cash in one day, brother.

So...

All my sources refused.

I think there is pressure on them.

They are not even answering my call.

Rishi.

Look. Listen to me.

I am completely dependent on you.

You will have to make the arrangement.

A few days here and there will do.

Okay?

Look. I cannot seek anybody's help now.

Try to understand.

Have I ever refused you?

But

it's not possible this time.

I see.

What, Rishi?

Have you sold your integrity?

Huh?

What?

Who called you?

You doubt my integrity?

At your insistence, I sold my farmhouse to repay

35 crores to Khoincha Bank.

And you suspect me.

Who helped you get the 35 crores?

Huh?

Did you do a favor by repaying it?

- It's not about favor. - Huh?

After Khoincha Bank case,

private lenders are refusing to lend me money.

I have lost my reputation.

[Chuckles]

Reputation.

Amazing!

You were a nobody.

You used to smuggle alcohol.

I got you out of prison.

Look here. Look here. Look here.

I got you out of prison.

I made you a businessman.

I made you a millionaire.

Mother warned me, but I kept giving you all government projects.

And today, you are concerned about losing your reputation.

My company's plight

wouldn't have been like this had I not been your friend.

That's why CED filed an FIR against me.

The truth is that I have been screwed badly

in the fight between Rani Bharti and Joshi.

Hey!

If you utter another word against mother,

I will smash your skull.

Mother! Mother! Mother!

For how long will you keep harping on your mother's name?

I am speaking the truth.

Had your mother not come in the way,

I would have made you Bihar's CM long ago.

Talking about your mother.

Who called you?

- Leave me. - Who called you?

Tell me. Who called you?

- Tell me. Or else... - Or else?

What will you do?

Will you kill me?

Why do you want to take the trouble?

[Drawer opening]

I will kill myself.

Hey!

Tell me. Shall I shoot?

- No. What other option do I have? - Rishi.

Shall I shoot myself?

I will shoot myself.

I want to end all of this.

Shall I shoot?

Shall I kill myself?

Tell me.

Lower the gun.

Or shall I shoot you?

Hey! Rishi.

- Shall I shoot you? - Hey! Rishi.

Let me warn you.

I will either shoot you or myself.

- You are going crazy. - No.

- What are you doing, man? - Don't come forward.

Brother Jai, I will shoot myself.

- I will shoot. - What are you doing?

Leave.

- No. - I will kill myself.

- No. No. Rishi. - Leave.

What are you doing?

Leave.

[Gunshot]

[Birds flutter]

Roshni.

Roshni.

Yes, mother.

Pin this up.

Huh?

Pin up the sari.

- Yes. - Here.

Did you speak with all alliance partners?

Yes.

Are all of them coming?

Yes.

Mr Sunderraja has reached Tamil Nadu Bhavan.

Manik Da's flight landed 10 minutes ago.

He will go there directly from the airport.

Okay.

We should also hurry, mother.

There are several protocols at Rashtrapati Bhavan.

I also have a protocol.

The entire family should be together for an auspicious event.

Surya is coming tomorrow.

Where is Jai?

- Jai is coming. - [Phone rings]

With Balmukund.

You go. I am coming.

- Hello. - Is the sari looking fine?

Shall I wear something else?

Roshni? Red...

Big breaking news.

Prime Minister Joshi met the President

and promised to form a government.

The swearing-in ceremony will take place tomorrow morning at 11:00.

His defeat was the talk of the town.

But he has returned with a bang.

Other players watched quietly.

With a single move Mr Joshi vanquished everybody.

Mr PM Joshi, who is known as the master of quick fix,

succeeded in pacifying his two regional alliance partners,

who were upset with him.

Bengal's CM Manik Sen and Tamil Nadu's CM P. Sunderraja.

Look.

There was some misunderstanding between

Mr Joshi and me, which has been cleared.

I am quite certain that he will give the country

a strong and stable government.

Sir! Sir! Sir! Sir!

- Sapna! Sapna! Go! - Thank you, sir.

Sunderraja sir.

I have heard that you were in talks with Rani Bharti.

- Rani. Bharti. - Yes.

Who is Rani Bharti?

[Everybody laughs]

[Dramatic music]

I, my family and my party.

We were with Mr Joshi.

And we will always be with him.

Sir, one more question.

Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.

We will together make India Corruption Free.

Yes.

Thank you very much. Please, please.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Jai said that Sunderraja had agreed.

I am calling Jai.

Call Aditi.

[Dramatic music]

Hello, Aditi.

Have you spoken to Jai? His phone...

Is that so?

Mother, Aditi also hasn't been in touch with Jai.

Jai is not answering the call.

I will call Mishra uncle.

- Yes. I will call Kaveri. - Yes.

[Riveting music]

Why is Mishra uncle not answering the call?

[Police siren blaring]

Dr Sinha.

Mr Yogender.

Mr Ashutosh.

What are all MPs doing in Delhi?

Madam.

Madam, I am sorry.

But you cannot go inside.

Madam, please.

[Crickets chirp]

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

- Hello. Hello. - Look.

The decision that we have taken here

will have long-term consequences.

If anyone has any doubts,

they can still withdraw their name from the list.

You can check it.

- Hello. - Hello.

Now I understood.

Why nobody was answering my call.

Can I know the reason of this opposition, Kaveri?

We are not opposing you,

but Jai.

We don't want Jai to become Bihar's CM.

What nonsense are you talking?

When did we discuss Jai becoming the CM?

Who said that?

Roshni being appointed as the CM was also not discussed, madam.

But she became the CM.

Jai being appointed as the alliance coordinator

was also not discussed.

But he became that.

Kaveri being ousted from Patna and Jai being allowed

to contest the election was also not discussed.

But he contested the election.

You have broken our trust several times.

Mishra uncle, mother...

Our trust?

What do you mean?

Yours?

Or party's?

Who all present here

don't trust me?

Tell me.

[Dramatic music]

30 MPs from 34 MPs of the party

and 120 MLAs from 128 MLAs

don't trust you.

Mishra uncle,

you are breaking the party.

I have been in this party since before you were born, Roshni.

I had told you.

For the wellbeing of the party and the state,

I can go against anybody.

[Sighs heavily]

Madam.

Nothing is lost.

All of us are with you.

But you will have to respect the majority of the party.

You cannot impose your family on the party.

It's not your fault, Kaveri.

I had sent you to Delhi.

The air here...

is bad.

It alienates you from your kin.

No problem.

From today you are free to choose your way.

But before leaving, do me a last favor, sister.

Tell me where Jai is. That's it.

[Sighs heavily]

Jai.

How will I know about him?

[Sobs]

[Everybody applauding]

I...

I...

Sudhakar Sriniwas Joshi,

do swear in the name of God.

That I will bear true faith and allegiance

to the Constitution of India as by law established.

[Police siren blaring]

That I will uphold the sovereignty and integrity of India.

That I will faithfully and conscientiously discharge

my duties as the Prime Minister for the Union.

And I will do right to all manner of people

in accordance to the Constitution

and the law, without fear or favor, affection or ill-will.

[Everybody applauding]

As the Minister for the Union.

I will faithfully and conscientiously discharge my duties

as the Minister for the Union.

I will faithfully and conscientiously discharge my duties

as the Minister for the Union.

I, Balmukund Chaudhary,

do swear in the name of God.

That I will bear true faith and allegiance

to the Constitution of India as by law established.

- I will uphold... - [Screams]

- the sovereignty and integrity of India. - What happened, mother?

[Everybody applauding]

I, Kaveri Sreedharan,

do solemnly affirm that

I will bear true faith and allegiance

to the Constitution of India as by law established.

That I will uphold

the sovereignty and integrity of India.

That I will faithfully and conscientiously

discharge my duties as the Minister.

[Everybody applauding]

[Suspenseful music]

Bihar's former CM Rani Bharti's son Jaiprakash Bharti

has been found dead in this building.

His business partner and Akshanta Group's owner

Rishi Aggarwal's body has also been found.

Look, as per the initial investigation,

it seems to be a case of business dispute.

Jaiprakash Bharti was in touch with 40-50 MPs

to gather support for his mother Rani Bharti's party.

And they were doing horse trading.

He pressurized Rishi Aggarwal to give him money.

And he demanded 350 crores.

As per the statements of the staff members and servants,

both of them had an argument over money.

And it escalated into a fight.

In a fit of rage Rishi first shot Jai

and then he shot himself and committed suicide.

From the crime scene the police have found

Rishi Aggarwal's licensed gun and 27 crores in cash.

[Cameras clicking]

[Trolley screeching]

[Somber music]

Mother, I don't want to prove anything to anyone.

I just want to earn your respect.

[Somber music]

Mr Paswan.

We have an arrest warrant against Roshni Bharti

in the Khoincha Bank case.

Mother s soft shelter feels abandoned now

Mother s soft shelter feels abandoned now

The sweet aroma that once lived in this home Has disappeared leaving nothing but silence.

Mother s soft shelter feels abandoned now

The sweet aroma that once lived in this home Has disappeared leaving nothing but silence.

I never wrapped him again in her loving drape,

No loving warmth to shield him anymore.

I never wrapped him again in her loving drape,

No loving warmth to shield him anymore.

Day after day this soul keeps breaking into tears.

Day after day this soul keeps breaking into tears.

The sweet aroma that once lived in this home Has disappeared leaving nothing but silence.

Mother s soft shelter feels abandoned now

The sweet aroma that once lived in this home Has disappeared leaving nothing but silence.

[Riveting music]

You are in Patna.

If you lock horns with me,

it will be difficult for you to survive here.

Naveen.

I am also from Patna. I haven't come from abroad.

Whether you are from Patna or somewhere else,

you are an unreliable person.

You keep changing sides.

Today I have understood why everybody calls you Kalanaag.

What are you looking at, dear?

Your tail.

It's been so many years.

But it's still crooked, Mr Pandey.

You are my only true friend in whole of Bihar, Mishra.

Why?

Have the people in Delhi stopped throwing you bones?

You are an amazing person, Mr Gauri.

From the prison to the governor's seat.

[Chuckles]

It's a miracle.

It's all about destiny, Tarkeshwar.

I had quit politics.

But destiny dragged me back to the politician's seat.

So come on.

Change Mr Naveen's destiny too.

What is this?

Mr Naveen's remission letter.

Mr Joshi and all of you had promised to pardon his sentence.

It's time to fulfill it.

[Riveting music]

I cannot sign it, Tarkeshwar.

Why?

Try to understand.

A new government has been formed in Delhi.

My arrival in Bihar

has created a positive political atmosphere..

In such a situation,

pardoning a criminal's sentence and releasing him from prison

will spoil the political atmosphere.

What will Naveen do after being released?

I am there.

I will handle everything.

I had warned Mr Naveen.

I had told him.

You people are not to be trusted.

But he didn't listen.

Leave it.

Remember one thing, Mr Gauri.

Karma is a bitch.

One day you will die a terrible death.

Tarkeshwar.

Do you know?

A German scientist did some intensive research.

If all the atomic bombs in the world explode at the same time,

humans, animals,

all living beings, trees, mountains, lakes,

everything will perish.

But deep underneath the soil,

one creature will survive.

Cockroach.

[Paper tearing]

I am that cockroach.

[Dramatic music]

As soon as the newly appointed governor

Mr Gauri Shankar Pandey came to Patna,

he administered the oath to the Chief Minister,

RJSP's senior leader Mr S.N. Mishra.

What's interesting is that after CM Roshni Bharti's arrest,

most of the MLAs of RJSP have joined hands with

Kaveri Sreedharan and S.N. Mishra.

This new group has also told the Election Commission

that they are the real RJSP.

[Anklets tinkle]

[Poignant music]

[Birds chirp]

Please come.

You can leave.

What have you done to yourself, sister?

Look at you.

The circumstances in which papa and mom were born,

for them politics was the only way for a better life.

But you...

You had everything going for you.

I didn't choose this life, Surya.

No, sister.

There is always a choice.

You could have refused mother.

You should have let Mishra uncle become the CM.

Look at us.

What do we have now?

Politics snatched papa from us.

It killed my elder brother.

My elder sister is in prison.

Mother is going through major trauma at home.

I came for a week.

It's been a month.

Next week I have my final exams.

[Sighs heavily]

[Sniffs]

Listen. You leave.

You go.

You are right.

We all have a choice.

You make your choice.

You leave. We will manage.

I have already booked my flights.

[Somber music]

[Chair creaks]

When are you leaving?

Tomorrow.

[Sighs heavily]

Does mother know?

[Poignant music]

[Gate creaks]

You are still here, uncle.

I had told you to leave.

I don't take orders from you, son.

Sister has told me to stay with you.

That's what I am doing.

If your sister tells you to jump in the well, will you do that?

Without asking any questions.

Got that?

[Tire screeches]

[Birds chirp]

You are late, son.

You have to catch your flight.

Bunty, keep Surya's bag in the car.

Yes, madam.

Who will do the turban ceremony, madam?

Sanyasi.

Why are you changing the ritual?

After the father's death, the eldest son has to do the ritual.

In the absence of the eldest son, the younger son has to do it.

Priest,

Surya has to catch his flight.

Sanyasi will do it.

You make the arrangement.

I want to do the ritual, mother.

[Somber music]

I never spoke my heart openly to you

I kept suffocating quietly within myself

I never spoke my heart openly to you

I never spoke my heart openly to you

And this very thought keeps tormenting my heart

And this very thought keeps tormenting my heart

The sweet aroma that once lived in this home Has disappeared leaving nothing but silence.

Mother s soft shelter feels abandoned now

The sweet aroma that once lived in this home Has disappeared leaving nothing but silence.

Surya.

What is the matter, son?

What is this?

Surya.

Jai and Rishi were not killed due to a personal dispute.

It was a well-planned murder.

What?

But...

I studied the entire police investigation.

I saw the postmortem report too.

Two bullet wounds, the fingerprints,

the servants' statements.

It all adds up.

The servants were pressurized.

And the postmortem report is fake.

This is the original postmortem report.

Original?

Where did you get it from?

Surya.

This is India.

And I am the Home Minister's daughter.

[Somber music]

Are you sure you want to do this, Gayatri?

Her party was dissolved.

She lost the government.

Her son was killed. Her daughter is in prison.

People should see what happens to those who challenge you.

Rani Bharti's story is over.

You are simply meeting a grieving mother.

For optics.

It's a photo op.

[Somber music]

[Cameras clicking]

My Saheb.

We didn't share a good relationship.

We used to stay separately.

He

fell in love with another woman.

But yes, he never hid their relationship.

He accepted it openly.

[Sighs heavily]

When

Naveen Kumar,

along with others,

killed Saheb deceitfully

and sent me to prison for his murder,

then in front of everybody

I swore to avenge his death.

[Sighs heavily]

It took me three years.

And despite being in prison,

I committed four murders.

And took my revenge.

I will definitely take revenge on Jai's murderers as well, Gayatri.

How will you take revenge from someone who is dead?

After killing Jai,

Rishi Aggarwal shot himself.

Rishi Aggarwal didn't kill Jai.

His murderer is somebody else.

[Sighs]

I am being brainwashed.

Because if Jai had been alive,

Joshi wouldn't have been the Prime Minister.

[Chuckles]

You are losing your mental balance.

You are speaking nonsense.

Jai was killed due to a personal dispute.

Do you want to hear the bitter truth?

Your son was killed because of your greed to be the PM.

There is no foul play.

The entire investigation was conducted

under the supervision of Home Minister Balmukund.

Jai was going to be his son-in-law, for God's sake.

What are you saying?

Let's go, Gayatri.

39.

There were 39 injury marks on Jai's body.

On his head,

hands,

legs,

chest, back.

There were deep wound marks everywhere.

[Sighs heavily]

His skull was broken.

There was blood in his lungs.

His kidney was shattered.

His spine was broken.

That's not all.

Before being killed,

he was given electric shock.

[Somber music]

[Sobs]

Now I have nothing to do with politics,

the party or the government.

I have only one goal.

To seek vengeance for Jai's murder.

If I am unable to seek vengeance,

then it's a shame on my motherhood.

If you are responsible for Jai's murder,

I swear on my dead son.

Your postmortem report will read exactly like this.

[Riveting music]

I swear on you, Gayatri.

I have nothing to do with this.

[Riveting music]

[Rousing music]
