Original subtitles

You dodged a bullet today.

You got lucky, but your luck won't save you every time.

How many more lies can you tell?

How many?

I won't let you get away with this, Sehar.

You want to destroy me?

Well, now, it's your turn to be destroyed.

And the whole world will be there to watch the spectacle.

What is it now?

There's one thing I don't understand.

What? What is it you don't understand?

Rohit could have just told me this at the office.

We could have avoided this entire scene

and put the matter to rest right then and there.

What was he supposed to tell you?

That Sehar and I are having an affair?

That he'd figured everything out and had been hiding it from you?

Is that what he should have told you?

Then why can't Rohit make Manisha understand that?

Why is she taking Sehar's side?

Exactly.

That's what I don't get either.

If he knows the truth, then he needs to tell Manisha.

I'll... I'll speak to him.

No, don't. You stay out of it.

I'll speak to Manisha myself.

What's the point?

Why are you wasting your energy on this lie?

It's my right. I deserve to know the truth.

Of course, it's your right to know the truth.

And you do.

So why are you obsessing over every little detail for no reason?

You know, this doesn't make any sense to me.

There's definitely something you're hiding from me.

Kiran, come on.

Why would I hide anything from you?

Now, of all times? Why would I hide things?

Just you wait and see.

For filing this phony case,

I'm going to teach Sehar a lesson in court she'll never forget,

and then you'll understand.

This is a court case, Kamran, not a war.

So, fight it like one.

This is war.

This is war.

And everything is fair in love and war.

And truth is the first casualty of war, Kamran.

I just don't get it.

In this fight, are you on my side or not?

Does standing by you mean I have to blindly go along with every single thing you say?

Well, you would have my back if you actually trusted me, wouldn't you?

I haven't decided if I'm going to stand by you or not.

And let's get one thing straight.

This time, I'll only support you if I truly believe you.

Not out of some sense of duty.

Everything's falling apart, Zara.

At first, my family wasn't on my side.

Now that they finally are,

I feel like I'm the one who's losing the will to fight.

Sehar, you've only gotten this far because of your will to fight.

You have to stay strong.

I feel like...

by filing this case,

I've put everyone in a really difficult position.

You haven't put anyone in a difficult position.

It is your right to fight for justice.

When this story breaks,

how are Mom and Dad going to face anyone?

What if Saad does something stupid in a fit of rage?

What happens then?

Sehar, if you just keep fighting, everything will turn out okay.

All you need to focus on right now is winning this case.

Don't let anything distract you.

You're right...

But I don't know how.

How am I supposed to control all these negative thoughts?

My dear, after what you've been through,

it's completely normal to feel this way.

You know,

the psychological impact after being raped is often the hardest part to overcome.

That's the real challenge.

That man just brought my whole life to a screeching halt...

I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

Just hang in there, Sehar.

Life doesn't stop. We just stop trying.

We lose heart.

Be brave.

Yes, Kamran?

How are you, man?

How could I possibly be?

What's on your mind? What's happened now?

It took a lot to convince Kiran.

You told her the whole truth?

I told her everything. But not the whole truth.

How many more lies are you going to tell?

Relax. I just said you don't know a thing.

And what else?

I also told her that Sehar and I were having an affair.

And because of that...

And Kiran actually bought that?

Looks like it, man.

Then tell me something.

Do you ever tell the truth?

Why do you always go back to that?

Look, just listen to why I called.

Kiran still has one doubt nagging at her.

And what's that?

That if my story is true...

then why is Manisha supporting Sehar?

So why didn't you cook up another lie for that?

After all, seems like you have a PhD in it.

Rohit, instead of lecturing me,

why don't you try making Manisha see reason?

And how am I supposed to do that?

She won't even look at me, let alone talk to me.

At least your marriage will be saved.

But trying to save you is going to destroy mine.

Rohit, try to understand my situation.

I'm the one with the threat of going to jail hanging over my head, not you.

That's hanging over your head because of what you did.

Don't pin this on me.

That's not what I'm doing here, man.

I'm begging you.

Please, make Manisha understand. Please.

Kamran, let me give you some serious advice.

You're sick in the head.

You need to get some help for this pathological lying.

Fine. Alright.

Let me just win this case against Sehar first.

After that, I'll go wherever you say, whenever you say,

to see whoever you want to get some help.

I promise you, I will.

God, you're completely unhinged, Kamran.

Who is it?

Mom...

Sehar? What's wrong?

Manisha, someone's following me.

Who?

Where are you?

Kamran.

He must have sent someone after me, right?

Where are you right now?

I'm at my place right now.

Sehar, are you sure you didn't just have a nightmare?

No.

I forgot to tell you...

For the last few days, there's been this black car with a man inside.

He's been following me for a while. I've seen him with my own eyes.

Okay, you know what?

I'll send my security guard over to your place, alright?

No, no. The building already has a guard.

Then what's there to worry about?

Look, listen to me. Just relax, alright?

Let's do this. We'll meet up tomorrow.

We can tell Beenish about it, and we'll figure out who it is, okay?

Okay.

I'm sorry for bothering you so late.

No, don't be. I'm glad you called.

Just try to relax now.

Okay.

Bye.

Bye.

Kiran.

Oh my God.

What a surprise.

Dropping in at the office so suddenly?

You didn't even give me a heads-up.

I was getting restless at home.

I'm thinking of coming back to work.

Right, but...

Oh, you brought Zoe, too? Greetings.

Hello Zoe.

Hello, my darling.

You've come all the way to the office?

Oh my God.

This is exactly what I've been telling you.

Look how tiny she is.

You should be spending time with her, just taking it easy.

You have to come back to the office eventually anyway.

I'm always on edge…

that Zoe's father might pull another one of his stunts.

And what have I done now?

Tell you what, why don't you just plant a tracking chip in me

so you can have a running commentary of where I am and what I'm doing?

It wouldn't make a difference.

That chip will just start feeding me a pack of lies once it’s installed in a liar like you.

You're such a smooth talker,

you could probably twist its logic completely.

Wow.

A taunt, with a sense of humor to boot.

Darling, you're picking up a few new tricks.

I know.

You watch over Zoe. I'm going to meet Rohit.

Hello, Rohit.

-How have you been? -I'm great. And you?

Have you got a moment?

Can we talk, if you're not busy?

Yeah, yeah, of course.

Please, have a seat.

Yesterday, Kamran told me you knew everything all along.

Yes, I did.

So why didn't you tell me yesterday?

I just didn't know what to say...

I couldn't find the right words to tell you.

And how long was this going on?

I found out the same night I saw it happen.

Kamran's quite the piece of work, isn't he?

Carrying on an affair, and neither of us had the faintest idea.

Yes, but he was caught in the end, wasn't he?

Now he's facing the music.

But there's one thing that's not adding up.

Is that so?

After this entire circus, there's only one thing that doesn't make sense to you?

No.

There's a long list, actually...

Some of it I've pieced together,

but other parts still don't make sense.

And one of those things concerns you.

Which is?

Manisha.

Why is she taking Sehar's side?

That's her decision.

There's nothing I can do about it.

No.

I know Manisha.

If Kamran's story is true,

as you claim it is,

why couldn't you make her see reason?

Kiran, I tried to explain it to her, but she simply refused to listen.

Then maybe I shouldn't have to listen either.

And yet here I am, being made a fool of by Kamran all over again.

No, it's not like that at all.

Manisha is the one being played for a fool by Sehar.

Because Sehar is a total drama queen.

She puts on such a performance,

such a convincing act... that sometimes,

even I start to think that the allegations she's leveled against me might actually be true.

Rohit is Manisha's husband.

Why would she believe Sehar over him?

What has gotten into you?

You were in the courtroom. You saw her performance for yourself.

Even the judge was completely taken in.

At that moment, he looked like he was ready

to sentence me to death right then and there, without a shred of evidence.

Alright then.

I'll meet Manisha, and we'll sort this out ourselves.

You don't need to do that.

Just leave it to me. I'll try to talk some sense into her.

Please, just give me a little more time.

I just hope you can convince her before the next hearing.

I'm trying to convince her.

But you both need to have a little patience.

Look, you both know her better than anyone.

I can certainly try my best to convince her,

but I can't exactly force her.

Rohit, you had better convince her before this case is over.

Why are you so afraid?

That if Manisha keeps supporting Sehar,

you'll end up losing the case?

No. I have no intention of losing this case.

Sehar is the one who will lose.

Although if Manisha continues to stand by her...

Sehar's defeat will just be a little delayed, that's all.

Well, that's a relief.

At least you're not worried that Manisha's testimony will get you convicted.

Worried? Please. Me? Convicted?

What do I have to worry about? Absolutely nothing.

I'm taking Zoe and heading to my mother's place.

Why? Why are you leaving all of a sudden?

Because I can no longer stand the very sight of you.

Alright, then go.

I'll be in court for the hearing.

Listen, I don't think Kiran bought my story.

She won't.

That's why it's better

if you stop piling one lie on top of another.

At least confess your crime to her and ask for her forgiveness.

What are you talking about?

This is my last resort.

You want me to just tell her the truth now and break her heart?

Oh, right.

Such a considerate man you are.

You care so deeply for Kiran.

Why wouldn't I? She's my wife, and I love her.

For God's sake.

He's either trying to scare me into dropping this case

or he wants me dead.

Don't you worry about it.

Kamran knows perfectly well

that if anything happens to you, he'll be the prime suspect.

That won't matter to him.

He's got the entire system in his pocket.

He'll just get the police to rig another investigation, and he'll walk free.

Sehar, take my guard with you for now.

No. Taking a guard with me will just worry Mom and Dad even more.

I haven't told them anything about this.

It's good you didn't mention it to them and came to us instead.

Look, Sehar,

if Kamran is behind all this,

then he's only using scare tactics to intimidate you.

You have to act as if you haven't noticed anyone following you.

But that's not going to solve anything, is it?

I think...

we need to speed up the proceedings.

Before Kamran pulls another stunt like this.

Don't worry, we are on track.

First, your cross-examination will be completed.

After that, your family and the other witnesses will testify.

Once that's done,

Kamran's list of witnesses will be presented.

You understand?

We're doing fine, don't worry.

Do you think Sehar is telling the truth?

I don't know.

But Kamran is hardly innocent.

He confessed to me himself that he and Sehar were having an affair.

This isn't good.

I'm just so furious with myself.

So much happened right under my nose, and I didn't see it.

Mom, how can I possibly live with a man

who has no respect for our relationship?

Look, my dear,

this whole matter is before the courts now.

If Kamran is telling the truth, and that girl has lied, then...

Kamran needs you right now, doesn't he?

He told you about his affair with Sehar himself, didn't he?

Then, my dear, you should only punish him

for the mistake he actually committed.

My darling, don't make any rash decisions.

You’re not just a wife. You’re a mother too.

And Kamran is Zoe's father.

Mom, if Sehar is telling the truth,

then there is no way I am staying with Kamran.

After that, I don't care what happens.

I will make sure he never sees Zoe again.

You're absolutely right.

But to find out the truth and make the right decision, my dear...

you'll have to see this entire process through to the end.

My darling, you have to be strong to do that.

Dad, he's here.

Who's here, dear?

The man Kamran put on my tail.

I just saw him myself.

Who did Kamran have following you?

For days, this car has been tailing me.

I saw it myself. It's parked right outside.

-I'll go check. -No, Saad, you're not going.

Call the guard and have him check who's in the car.

Sister, just let me take a look. Nothing will happen, relax.

Saad...

Saad.

Brother Ali? Is that you?

How are you, Saad?

What are you doing here?

I came to talk.

With Sehar…

In fact, I came to talk to all of you.

So you're the one who's been following me all this time?

What do you want?

What are you here for now?

Can we sit down and talk?

No, we can't talk. Dad, tell him to leave.

Sehar.

I have a way to deal with Kamran.

How do you even know about that?

I often wait outside your office,

your building, just to catch a glimpse of you.

The night you went to the police station...

I don't need your pity.

Whatever we had is over. Leave.

Sehar, winning against Kamran in court is impossible.

I have an idea.

We don't need any of your ideas. Just get out of here.

-But, Sister, at least hear him out. -Hear what?

Sister, you need all the help you can get right now.

He might have some proof.

Fine. What is it?

I want to help you with this case, Sehar.

Help me?

You haven't hurt me enough that now you want to help me?

I was wrong.

And you ended our relationship.

I apologized over and over, but you still punished me...

and divorced me.

But that doesn't change the fact that...

we shared a lot of good times together.

You are in the past, Ali.

I've closed that chapter and moved on with my life.

You shouldn't have come here.

Sehar, please.

Uncle, Aunt, say something.

I've always seen you both as my own parents,

and Saad as my younger brother.

How can I just abandon you all in a time like this?

Brother Ali, your relationship with Sister is over,

so we don't really have any ties left.

Still... tell us, how can you help?

Sehar won't get justice through the system.

But we can get our own revenge on Kamran.

How?

I will fight this battle within the system, and I will win.

We don't need your suggestions. Now leave.

-Sehar, I was only... -Only what?

Trying to take advantage of the situation?

Did you think a few sympathetic words would make me forget that you cheated?

I've changed, Sehar.

I made one mistake, and you've punished me so severely for it.

Please, just let me make amends.

I don't care. Out.

Get out.

Sister, you should have at least heard him out.

Have you forgotten how sincere he was with you?

If he were sincere, he'd have been loyal.

He wouldn't have cheated on me.

You've already made him pay for that.

What’s the harm in forgiving someone who's admitting his mistake?

You're up, Mr. Bukhari.

Good day, Miss Sehar.

Let's pick up right where we left off.

But first, please tell me, are you all right?

Yes, I'm perfectly fine.

Then, if you don't mind, may I proceed with my questions?

Please, go ahead.

Miss Sehar, given your prior marital status and sexual history,

a two ** test wasn’t conducted after the incident, was it?

Objection, Your Honor.

According to new laws and judicial precedents,

not only is the two ** test itself illegal,

but so is asking a rape survivor such a question.

Yes, of course. You would be the one

who's read all the laws and rulings, Miss Beenish.

Indeed, Mr. Bukhari.

As Thomas Jefferson said,

“A lawyer without books would be like a workman without tools.”

It seems Mr. Bukhari hasn't bothered with the new laws,

let alone the High Court's decisions.

What is this, Mr. Bukhari?

My apologies, Your Lordship.

When did I suggest the test was mandatory?

I merely posed a question.

You may not ask that question.

And be careful with the witness.

My apologies, Your Lordship.

I will certainly be more careful.

May I proceed?

Proceed.

So, Miss Sehar, the plan to falsely accuse my client...

did you come up with it on your own,

or did you conspire with your family?

I've told you before.

Neither my family nor I had anything to do with such a plan.

But you've yet to provide a satisfactory explanation.

If there was no grand plan,

why did it take six days to file a report?

I have answered you time and again.

Perhaps you just aren't satisfied.

I was in shock when it happened.

I had no idea what to do.

My family was just worried about our reputation.

Perhaps you didn't know what to do

because your scheme didn't cover the aftermath, did it?

What do you mean?

What plan?

Your plan only went as far as accusing my client of rape.

You figured he was a decent man, that he would be easily frightened.

That was the extent of it, wasn't it?

And tell me, what was I supposed to gain from that?

Exactly what you had planned for.

Objection, Your Honor.

That is not a question. It is a direct accusation.

Stick to questions, Mr. Bukhari.

Enough with the games.

Get to the point.

Your Lordship, I am getting to the point.

But first, I must set the stage for Miss Sehar and this court to hear the truth.

This is a court of law, Mr. Bukhari, not a movie set.

Stop creating suspense and get to the point.

You're right, Your Lordship. This is a court of law.

But Miss Sehar's elaborate scheme is something straight out of a film.

Objection, Your Honor.

The defense counsel is making irrelevant statements

simply to put my witness under duress.

Another objection?

Your Lordship, I'm doing nothing of the sort.

She, on the other hand, is constantly interrupting.

I implore this honorable court to put a stop to her frequent interruptions.

How can I possibly question the witness like this?

It's one objection after another.

Miss Beenish, please take your seat.

And Mr. Bukhari, please proceed.

Your Lordship, I am simply setting the stage.

I want everyone here to be prepared for the truth,

so they understand exactly

how an innocent man was ensnared in a vicious plot.

And how she tried to destroy his life simply to build her own.

Have you finished your speech, Mr. Bukhari?

Now get to the point.

That night, Miss Sehar wasn't raped.

Because, in fact, nothing happened at all.

Miss Sehar, is it true that

when you arrived at my client Kamran's home that night,

he mentioned his friend Rohit would be joining them for dinner by nine?

Is this correct?

Yes. Kamran had told me that Rohit would be there for dinner

and that Kiran would be there too.

But neither Kiran nor Rohit was there.

And is it also true

that my client Kamran's wife was pregnant?

That she was unwell and staying at her mother's...

and that Kamran told you all this at the office that day?

No. He never mentioned anything like that to me.

That's a lie.

Oh, really? Is it true that after he told you this,

you insisted that he not cancel the dinner plans, no matter what?

That's completely false.

He only invited me under the pretense

that Kiran was the one having me over for dinner.

Why would I have said that?

Miss Sehar, did you do all this because you saw... an opportunity?

A chance?

An opportunity? What kind of opportunity?

The opportunity to execute your plan.

Who plans their own rape?

Isn't it true you were never actually raped?

And that this entire performance was just a backup for your master plan.

Then why wasn't Rohit there?

Did I stop him from coming too?

No...

You didn't. In fact, no one did.

But isn't it true that when you arrived at my client's house,

he told you Rohit would be arriving shortly?

Yes, Kamran said that Rohit would be there in a little while.

Then is it also true

that you asked him to cancel on Rohit?

To get rid of him

because you had some important business to discuss with my client,

which couldn't happen with Mr. Rohit around?

That's another one of your baseless lies.

Nothing like that happened.

You're the one who is lying.

In fact, you've spun a whole web of lies.

And I'm going to unravel it and expose every last one.

Objection, Your Honor.

The defense counsel is relentlessly leveling false accusations against my client.

Your Lordship, I'm not leveling accusations.

I'm exposing the false ones made against my client.

Objection overruled.

You may continue, Mr. Bukhari.

Thank you, Your Lordship.

Miss Sehar, isn't it a fact that because Mr. Rohit was running late that night,

you decided to move forward with your plan?

And the house staff? Where did they disappear to?

Did I send them on leave as well?

Or was your client forced by me to give them the night off?

The house staff were at the house that night.

Is it not true that they served you dinner,

you had dessert, and then you drank green tea?

Not a single word of that is true.

Your Lordship...

my client's servants have refuted Miss Sehar's claims, calling them false.

They gave the exact same statement to the police,

that they were present at the house on the night of the incident.

Their statements are included in the police's investigative report.

It's all a lie, Your Honor.

Apart from one guard, no other servant was there.

And I've already informed this honorable court

about what that guard did.

Rohit saw everything.

I panicked and messaged him to come over, which he did.

Because it was all part of your magnificent plan.

First, you tried getting Kamran to un-invite Rohit...

and then, when that didn't work,

you sent him a message asking where he was.

And according to your fictional account,

why would I have done that?

Yes, Mr. Bukhari, please do get to the point.

Yes, Your Lordship…

The truth has a way of coming out…

step by step.

Miss Sehar, after you had eaten,

you made a request to my client, Kamran.

You asked him to send the servants outside

because you had something private to discuss.

He did as you asked and sent them out…

and then you started flirting with him… luring him.

That is the most despicable lie! Stop it!

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Do you not have mothers and sisters in your home?

I do, absolutely.

But they are nothing like you.

Objection, Your Honor!

The defense counsel is making personal attacks on my client’s character.

Your Lordship, I am only answering the victim’s question.

Mr. Bukhari, you will be more careful

with your choice of words.

I want to see both of you in my chambers now.

All rise!
