MASS WEDDING CEREMONY A WEDDING TO REMEMBER

I don't want to get married!

Hey, Pinky! Don't create a scene.

I don't want to get married!

I don't want to get married!

No!

-Come on, get up! -Hey, what's happening here?

Let her go!

Vijay!

-Take her to the girls' hostel. -Okay.

Come on.

I left Delhi and came to the Northeast. I left everything behind.

My team. My family.

My city.

They called it a transfer, but I knew it was really a punishment.

And then, somewhere along the way, I came across a crime so dark

it transcended the limits of cities, villages, and nations.

In crimes like these, the criminals leave no trace.

They know exactly how to exploit someone's helplessness.

They have no names, no identities.

At times, it feels as if we're chasing shadows.

Jai Hind, ma'am. Welcome to Silchar.

Thank you very much, Ranjit, for doing this.

-Anything? -Not yet, ma'am.

We've checked a dozen trucks since morning.

Only tea and ginger, no weapons.

Assam Rifle intel is very, very good. You just have to be patient.

Yes, ma'am.

If they are smuggling weapons out of the Northeast,

this is the only exit route.

-Another truck approaching, sir. -Copy.

There's a truck coming.

Step out of the truck!

Down! Down! Down!

Down! Get them!

Don't shoot! Don't shoot!

Don't shoot.

Let's go and check.

Madam, the truck departed from Mizoram, with Delhi as the drop-off point.

At Azadpur Market's parking lot.

They were supposed to pick up more girls on the way.

He says he saw another truck leaving two days ago.

Did he say who he's working for?

He's just a driver for hire, ma'am.

He was transporting girls across state borders to Delhi in a truck.

He has to know more.

Please keep digging.

Yes, ma'am.

Thank you.

The profiles of these girls are extremely varied.

These two girls, they're educated.

They were offered jobs,

one as a nanny and the other as a tutor.

These two girls

were sent by their parents themselves to find a job.

Mainly maid jobs.

And these two girls

were lied to and tricked by the agents.

We've called for reports of missing girls

from here and from the neighboring states as well.

One girl fits into our timeline.

Her grandmother filed a missing person's report at Kanakpur Police Station.

She's 18 years old and a class topper.

Her mobile phone has been switched off for two days.

Her grandmother says this is unlike her.

Her name is Sonam, ma'am.

And according to her grandmother, Sonam left on a bus.

And she was promised a job as a tutor in Delhi.

Maybe she was on the truck that left two days ago.

-Hello, madam. -Bhupendra, hi.

You got a minute?

Always, madam. Please tell me.

We seized a truck in Silchar today.

There were eight girls in it.

The drop-off point is Delhi.

The girls were offered various jobs.

Looks like these young girls are being targeted by a gang.

In fact, another truck left from Mizoram two days ago.

Where in Delhi is the drop-off?

Azadpur Market.

Okay, madam. I'll have checkpoints set up in all areas around Azadpur.

When are you coming to Delhi?

As soon as the DGP gives his permission.

He's conservative about working across state lines.

Madam, I once read somewhere…

"Ask for forgiveness, not permission."

You can apologize later.

Yeah, okay.

Okay, madam. Jai Hind.

Jai Hind, Bhupendra.

Hi.

Hi.

Looking good. What's your secret?

Divorce.

Neeti, this is Mallika.

-Nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you too.

I've heard quite a lot about you from him.

I mean, it's really impressive, the work you're doing.

That's good to hear.

Well, he didn't tell me anything about you.

Excuse me.

Why so nervous? The cops don't arrest just anyone.

-Jai Hind, madam. -Jai Hind.

There's a girl, about two years old, with critical injuries.

Someone dropped her off at AIIMS Trauma Center and then vanished.

Madam, the child has been admitted to the ICU.

But her chances of surviving are slim.

-I'm nearby. I'll come. -Okay.

-Jai Hind, madam. -Jai Hind.

She has a severe head injury.

-Hi, doctor. -Hi.

So, she's bleeding in her brain.

We'll have to do emergency surgery.

Accident or assault?

Assault.

There are bite marks on the child's face.

Bite marks?

On both sides of the cheeks.

The security personnel said they spotted a woman on camera.

-You can get all the footage from them. -Yes, doctor.

-Excuse me, I need to get back. -Thank you.

PEACE, SERVICE, JUSTICE

I've isolated and reviewed this girl's movements in all the available footage.

She arrived in a rickshaw.

She didn't fill out any forms, so we can't ID her.

She left the baby in this corridor and walked away.

And we couldn't trace her exit.

Doesn't she look young, madam?

Could this girl be the mother?

Or maybe they're not related at all.

Maybe she left the child at the hospital

to avoid getting involved in a police case.

Could be a case of kidnapping as well.

Sir, why would kidnappers assault the child so brutally?

It seems to me that she was trying to save the child.

There's the license plate.

I'll send this to the RTO and get the owner's details.

As soon as you have the address, send it to Jairaj and Sudhir.

Locate the driver and find out where he picked up the girl.

What's the English word for "rickshaw"?

"Rick-shaw."

That's the same thing, man.

This English-speaking course of yours seems dodgy to me.

-Consider changing it. -How is it the same?

For example, it's pronounced "shawl," not "shaal."

"Rick-shawl"?

Are you bullshitting me? How can it be "rick-shawl"?

This is it.

127-B.

Yeah, looks like it.

Yes, it's this one. The auto's here too.

296, yes.

Is the electricity gone?

Hello?

Is that your auto parked outside?

Yes, it is.

Are you Rajiv Mahto?

-Yes, sir. -Delhi Police.

What's wrong, sir?

Did you…

drop this girl off at AIIMS Trauma Center?

Yes, sir. She was really upset.

There was a little girl with her.

I jumped two red lights just to get them there.

-Where did she get in? -At Mahipalpur, sir.

Right outside a place called Vandana Lodge.

-Where is that? -Mahipalpur, sir.

There must be some address, right?

-Sir… -Give us an address!

Sir, it's right next to Desu alley.

Do one thing.

Write down what you just mentioned. The complete address.

But what happened, sir?

-Jai Hind, sir. -Jai Hind.

Please take a seat.

I have read your report.

What happened in Silchar?

Sir, while we were tracking a weapons shipment,

we found a shipment of girls headed to Delhi.

We need to pursue an investigation.

I'm sympathetic, Vartika.

But sanctioning an interstate operation of this level…

-it's not practical. -Why?

We have a testimony that there is another truckload of young women

crossing state lines, heading to Delhi.

We have limited resources, Vartika.

Hand over your intel to the other states.

Let them take care of their territories.

We are at ground zero of a serious crime.

We need to help these young girls. Now.

Cases like these don't last, Vartika.

Families themselves don't admit that

they've sent away their girls with the agents.

Exactly.

This is why these girls need our help the most.

A no is a no, Vartika.

Okay.

Then in that case, sir, you need to sign this, please.

What is this?

It's a letter that states

you are prohibiting me from pursuing this investigation.

-Get out of my office! -Yes, sir.

Thank you, sir.

Come on, girls, get down.

-Come on, be quick. -Come on.

Come along.

Come, children! Come along!

Come. You must be tired.

If you need to pee, the toilet's inside.

Leave your bags on the side.

Okay? Are you tired?

Not too tired, are you? Go use the toilet. Leave your bags there.

Wash up and get ready, okay?

Come along. All good?

Are you done?

Wow, that's good.

Let me see. Yeah, that's good.

Girl, take this.

Pass it back there.

No, thanks.

Eat.

Or Kalyani didi will eat you up.

Come on, eat.

Has everyone finished lunch?

Did you like the khichdi?

Now tell me,

why did you leave your homes and families to come here?

To find a good job, right?

Now, you can't just land a good job in a big city like this, can you?

First, you need training.

Okay?

And how do we begin the training?

By learning to look more presentable.

Your face should look nice and smart, just like the girls in the photos.

They all have good jobs now.

See how pretty they look? That's the kind of smart you need to be.

Now, look at Rani.

She will teach you how to apply makeup.

You will learn how to enhance your facial features. Get it?

Two days from now, I'll send you for more training.

Only after that will you get jobs. Understood?

Child, what's your name?

-Sonam. -Sonam.

Rani, do Sonam's makeup.

-Okay? Teach her. -Yes.

The rest of you, find a partner among yourselves.

That is, form pairs.

First, watch how she applies makeup.

Learn from her.

Then one partner will apply makeup on the other.

Okay? Then you will switch places.

-After that, you'll do your own makeup. -Keep an eye on that side.

Did you listen to what didi said?

Child, leave the hairbrush aside. Focus on makeup for now.

RAHUL WHERE ARE YOU? WHERE IS NOOR?

KHUSHI I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO

RAHUL I'M COMING BACK TO THE LODGE.

Rahul!

-What are you doing over there? -Nothing, didi.

Didi, there's a bit of an emergency.

I'll be back in two minutes.

That girl is a leech. A leech.

She will suck you dry. I warned you, didn't I?

Didi…

Didi, please. I'll be back in two minutes.

I know how easily your two minutes can turn into two days.

-Dinesh will handle it. Dinesh? -Sit down.

You'll handle it, right?

-Sit down. -Didi, I'll be back in no time.

Didi…

Oh, God.

It's Badi Didi.

Hello, didi.

Greetings.

I hope you've got good news for me? Tell me, Kalyani.

Yes, didi. I'm sending you twenty girls.

Twenty? What about the remaining ten?

They'll come too.

That was not our deal.

-Understand? -Yes, didi. I--

Cunt.

Here, on the right. This is the address Mahto gave us.

Here's Vandana Lodge. Come on, let's go in.

Delhi Police.

We're looking for this girl. Have you seen her?

What's the matter, sir?

Are we asking the questions, or are you?

Sir…

that's Khushi.

She rents a room here with her husband, Rahul.

They're the only family with a baby in this lodge, sir.

Khushi and Rahul. And? Last name?

Sir, we don't ask that many questions. They pay the rent on time, in cash.

They don't fight or hassle us. It's a lodge, what else can we ask for?

How long have they been staying here?

Sir, it's been a little over a month.

Show us their room.

Come, sir.

-Is that Rahul? -Yes, sir, that's him.

There's blood here.

Here as well, in several places.

I'll call forensics.

You!

-Yes, sir? -Do you live here?

Yes, sir.

Do you know the people living here?

Not really.

The child's mother is always sulking.

She doesn't even greet anyone.

Are they married?

I don't know, sir. The girl looks like a child herself.

Is she the child's mother?

Sir, I don't know about that, but the man definitely seems shady.

He's really quarrelsome, always fighting with everyone.

Come on, let's go.

Back straight and head down.

Form a line.

Smile!

Fair skin.

Tall.

Clear complexion.

And the eyes…

intoxicating.

These aren't the markers of real beauty.

Real beauty lies…

inside.

Out of all of you, three are very special

for whom I've set up some great jobs abroad.

Which of you went to an English-medium school?

-Tell me your name. -Pinky.

English?

Of course, ma'am.

Very nice. Good girl.

You will go far.

Listen.

Pay attention to what Kusum didi tells you.

This training is crucial.

That goes for the rest of you too.

You want to make it to the top three, right?

Yes, Badi Didi.

Taking a loan from Bhai Ji was risky. We should start repaying it.

Listen.

John Gupta is looking for a new supplier of young, fresh girls in India.

We have to be the supplier so he gets his entire stock from us.

I have a plan, cutie-pie!

Come on. Put it away.

Put it away safely. There are lots of thieves around Rohtak.

Thieves have come from overseas.

Hi, babe.

Hi, babes.

-Welcome home! -Welcome home!

Thank you, baby. I missed you guys so much.

Missed you too, Mom.

But I'm late for the newsroom.

My editor's going to kill me.

Okay, okay. Do you have your wallet?

-Yeah. -Keys? Water bottle?

-Yes. -Stay hydrated, okay?

Yes, Mom.

Will I see you later?

Of course. I'll see you soon.

Have a good day.

Okay, great. Bye, love you! Bye.

-Love you. -Bye.

She sounds happy.

Our young journalist is hungry for a byline.

Get any rest?

Not… not really.

I heard you sparked a fire before you left.

Subramanium called the Additional CPs.

He was frustrated.

Called you defiant.

Those girls are trapped in that truck.

And now the truck's nowhere to be found.

Finding them falls on us, doesn't it?

Listen, babes, I'm on your side.

Yeah, I… I know.

Okay, I gotta go.

Hey, I'm glad you're back.

Me too. Bye.

-Welcome. -Thank you. How are you?

-Very well. And you? -Absolutely fine.

-Do you remember your Formula 1? -Can't believe she's still alive.

She just needs a bit of care and maintenance,

then she's good to go.

Hello.

You didn't go to the cops, did you?

No.

Where are you, huh?

I've tried calling so many times, but you just wouldn't pick up!

Don't get angry.

If you get angry, I won't be able to talk to you.

Khushu, my love…

I've been worried about you.

Anyway, tell me, where is Noor?

She's with you, right?

No.

She's in the hospital.

But what hospital did you go to?

I'll tell you.

Just don't be mad at me.

Sweetheart, why would I be mad at you?

I'm with you, always.

As long as we stay together, we can figure it all out.

Okay?

Just tell me…

which hospital is the baby in?

At AIIMS.

I left her there and ran back out.

Rahul, I'm a horrible person.

Hey, you're not. Who told you that?

Did I say that?

You're wonderful, the nicest of them all.

You took the baby to the hospital, didn't you?

But when you were there…

did you speak to any doctors or nurses?

No…

Rahul, we should go and see how she's doing.

Our Noor is badly hurt.

Yes, of course, my love. We will go and…

bring Noor back home. Okay?

Rahul, our baby will be fine, right?

I just want things to be like they used to be.

Absolutely, my love.

Everything in our family will go back to the way it was.

I hope.

Anyway, tell me, where are you right now?

I can come over there.

Near the hospital.

Alright, I'll come there,

then we'll get Noor and go back home. Okay?

You promise?

I swear on God, love.

Just meet me, okay?

And listen…

stay away from the cops. Okay?

Yes, ma'am?

How is she?

Critical, as of now.

But the doctors are trying their best.

Ma'am, did you find out about the baby's family?

Did you find the mother?

We're on it.

We're trying.

Also, the baby was wearing this.

Now it is in your custody.

-We'd need more photos for evidence. -Yes.

From this, we can't tell who it is.

You both look like deep-fried fritters!

Did you get any sleep at all?

Quit messing with us, Vimla ji.

Did you find anything on those two?

We were there all night, madam.

But they never came.

Maybe they found out we're looking for them.

-And the people around? -It's a lodge, madam.

People keep coming and going.

But we questioned everyone.

They were also saying that this man, Rahul, is a rogue, and dangerous too.

Apparently, he drives girls around at night.

Someone saw him fighting with another guy over money.

He must have hurt the child.

And I suspect the girl's a minor and might be covering for Rahul.

It happens all too often, sir.

Yes, could be possible.

Baby Noor.

From the photos, it looks like they loved the baby dearly.

So many family photos all over, that too in a lodge room?

If they loved her that much, how could they abandon her?

Here's what I think, ma'am.

This girl will return to the trauma center

to check on the baby.

Two of you, take your teams and head to AIIMS Trauma Center.

And stay ready to nab those two if they come back.

Madam…

I'll go.

-Yes, I'll go too. -Good.

Vimla and Jairaj will go to AIIMS Trauma Center,

the rest of you, back into the field.

-Yes. -Yes, madam.

Talk to your informants. Check with the dealers and drivers in Mahipalpur.

If Rahul's involved in the flesh trade,

someone on the ground must know his whereabouts.

Sonu!

Do you know him?

No.

His name is Rahul. He drives girls around.

Have you seen him?

Sir, all the drivers here use Siddhu Car Service.

Siddhu Car Service.

Siddhu!

Hey!

Look here!

Do you know him?

Yes, sir. What did that fucker do now?

That's what you need to tell me.

When did you see him last?

Five years ago.

He tried to force himself on our mechanic's daughter.

She was only 12 years old, sir.

-Want some tea? -No, sir.

-Madam, tea. -Thank you.

Are you okay? Come on.

Camera 2!

Why didn't you park the car?

We'll go park it together. Come along.

-No. -What do you mean by "no"?

Jairaj, come in! Jairaj!

Jairaj, come in for Vimla! Jairaj!

Yes, Vimla?

Go park the car.

Khushi, don't be stubborn. We'll go park it together, come on.

-No. -Come, Khushi!

Don't you want to see Noor?

Rahul and Khushi are outside the building, next to a grey car.

Hey! Come on, hurry up!

-Khushi, come along! Get in the car! -I don't want to! No!

-Get in the car, Khushi! -Rahul, let me go!

Get in--

Sorry.

You've lost your bloody mind!

Get in the car and be quiet!

Come on, step on it!

-What are you doing, Rahul?! -Shut up! Be quiet!

Noor!

To hell with Noor.

Do you know? The police came all the way to the lodge looking for us.

What?

That's why I'm telling you, just come with me quietly!

Motherfucker.

Put your seat belt on!

Take it from the right.

Get out. Quick.

Come on, Khushi.

Khushi, hurry up!

We'll go on foot from here.

Khushi!

Khushi, don't act crazy! Come on, quickly.

Khushi, they'll be here any moment…

Delhi Police.

We've been looking for you since yesterday.

Where's your husband?

Ma'am, this is Aparna.

Jai Hind, sir. Ma'am. Sir.

Ma'am, she'll show you the footage.

Thank you, sir.

-Why are you thanking me? -Yes, sir.

Thank you.

-Please, ma'am. -Thank you.

-Ma'am… -No, sit.

-Aparna, have you seen the footage? -Yes, madam.

The profile of one truck matches your brief.

What time is this?

5:46 a.m., Madam Sir.

This isn't just a drop-off point.

It looks like an entire nexus.

They're doing it so brazenly,

as if they're not worried about getting caught at all.

That's because they know no one's looking for them.

Send these number plate details to all the checkpoints.

Interstate as well.

Sir, the visibility is very poor.

The number plates aren't clearly legible.

What is that logo on the bus?

Swift Wings Travels.

Send all the footage to the Hauz Khas station.

Yes, sir.

Pause, pause.

Just punch in.

That girl, Sonam…

Her grandmother filed a missing person's report

at Kanakpur Police Station.

Welcome, ma'am. This way.

Don't stumble.

Now smile, okay?

John ji.

Finally.

Your girls.
