Original subtitles

- Check this mattress properly. - Okay.

- These bottles. - Okay.

- Check underneath this also. - Okay.

I DON'T REPEAT MY MISTAKES.

I had a word with the guard.

He said janitors used this room. But it's not been used for a while.

The students must have found this empty spot

and turned it into their personal disco.

How is that even allowed?

These students come from families that make hefty donations.

- Everything's allowed for them. - Yeah.

No traces of drugs or alcohol

were found in Naina's blood, right?

Yes, nothing like that came up

in the initial forensics report.

But the detailed toxicology report will only come tomorrow.

Where exactly were Ojas and Aarav on the night of the murder?

They've got no answer.

If they didn't commit the murder,

they'd at least have one solid alibi.

Do we have their call records and location details?

That'll also come soon. I've already asked for it.

But listen to me.

This is where everything happened.

You'd be better off shooting at those reports than reading them.

Hold on.

- I completely forgot. - What?

You don't like to shoot things, do you?

Well, I'm starting to rethink this now.

Hey! What are you doing, my child?

Haven't slept yet?

It's Tanu's birthday. I'm making a cake for him.

Nainu used to get him a cake every year at 12 a.m.

Where is she?

Nainu...

- Come, let's go and wish Tanu. Let's go.

- Let's go! Let's go!

Wow! You've made such a beautiful cake.

What's going on?

It's Tanu's birthday, so...

- Hey! Get down!

- Go inside! Relax, he's just a child.

Didn't you see the news?

Naina's body was found in that politician's car.

Do you know how powerful he is?

But we have to trust the police.

Screw your trust! Uddhav, I want answers from them!

I also want answers!

Tanu and Anu need us right now.

What's their fault in this?

My Nainu's dead...

We'll go and talk to the cops tomorrow morning. Okay?

It's not their fault.

A criminal like Tushar Surve

has no right to even contest in this election,

let alone win it.

If he does, it will be a big blow to our democracy.

Just shut up.

- Tushar Surve... - Shame on you! Shame on you!

Just see.

Thanks to Pradeep's instigation,

people are losing their minds.

Jayesh just called.

Bad news!

They're discussing an alliance

between Pradeep's and Jhanvi's parties.

She's getting posters made with you

and is sealing the deal with someone else.

Like I said,

she can't be trusted.

Our whole campaign is screwed

just because we didn't issue a statement.

Our careers are screwed too.

But which scandal has ever ended a politician's career?

If that was the case, there'd be no politicians in this country.

Media just needs a new toy every day.

Pradeep Bhosle won't forget this,

and he'll ensure that no one forgets this either.

Especially when elections are only a month away.

Trusting ACP Das was a big mistake.

Don't worry. As your campaign manager,

I'm here to handle such crises.

Don't worry. I'll line up a few interactions.

Let's do a podcast. Let's talk about mangroves.

We've got enough material to keep the people distracted.

- Don't worry. - Yes.

Let's remind them that you've always been the good guy.

- Tushar Surve... - Shame on you! Shame on you!

- Tushar Surve... - Shame on you! Shame on you!

- Tushar Surve... - Shame on you! Shame on you!

Tushar!

- Tushar Surve... - Shame on you! Shame on you!

- Tushar Surve... - Shame on you! Shame on you!

- Tushar Surve... - Shame on you! Shame on you!

- Congratulations. - Sir, you're--

The news has been leaked. The press is already here.

They want a statement from the police department.

That's impossible! How did the news leak--

Well, that's not important!

We have to figure out how to do damage control right now.

The media needs a target.

Let's make sure that we don't become that target.

- Yes, sir. - Let's go. Time to meet our guests?

Sir.

We need to beef up your security.

People are out on the roads, protesting for better security

for the women in our country.

At such a time, it'd be wrong to beef up my security.

Security shouldn't be a privilege. It should be a right for everyone.

Only Sahil, you and I knew

about the development of this app.

- So? - Sahil has been delaying

this app's development for weeks now.

Yes, because there were some technical glitches.

What if all this was just an excuse

so that Pradeep Bhosle could launch his app first?

Sahil is my childhood friend. Why would he do that?

You know that there are many ways to find that out, right?

I said no, Raksha!

I trust Sahil.

Dhiren, hi.

I need you to find something.

Sir, apparently a student's corpse

was found in Tushar Surve's car. Is this true?

Will the police take action against someone so powerful?

Whoever the culprit is, we'll make sure that

they're punished severely.

And the body was found in Tushar Surve's campaign car.

Please check your facts.

Let the police do their job. Thank you.

Sir, in many cases, the culprits get away due to police negligence.

So what's new with your approach this time?

I have my best team on this case.

But, sir, I've heard that the lead on this case

is leaving the department

and the case is being transferred to someone else.

Where do you hear all this? Absolutely not!

The lead on this case, ACP Sanyukta Das,

will not leave until the case is solved.

No more questions, please.

Sir, one last question...

Sir, please, I can't stay. I told you.

All right. Solve this case quickly, and you can leave after that.

Hello, everyone.

An unfortunate incident has taken place.

An innocent girl has lost her life

and a family has lost their daughter.

My deepest condolences to the family.

This is a reminder to us that even today

the women in this country are not safe.

This is a bad idea. It will backfire.

Only the guilty or cowardly hide at a time like this.

Tushar is neither. It's fine.

People will slam him in their comments.

If you had any sense, you'd have

never suggested this live interaction.

Exactly! This is why I want to know from all the women today,

what does feeling safe really mean?

What does safety mean to you?

How can we as politicians, as men,

make society safer for you? Let me know in the comments. Please.

Told you it's hard to resist Tushar Surve's charm.

I'm sure you know everything about that.

- WE MISS YOUR LIVE - IT WAS A TRAGIC INCIDENT

You're right, absolutely. Correct!

NAINA'S BODY WAS FOUND IN HIS CAR

- HIS WIFE ALSO DISAPPEARED SUDDENLY - HE KILLED NAINA

POLITICIANS CAN GET AWAY WITH MURDERS

STOP ACTING. WE KNOW EVERYTHING

TUSHAR, YOU'RE A CRIMINAL. STOP BEING A POLITICIAN

ARE YOU PLAYING POLITICS USING THAT POOR GIRL'S HONOUR?

Look, please...

The police has refrained me from commenting on this case.

Let's move on, please.

We're talking about

women safety here. Let's move on, please.

YOUR WIFE'S DEATH WASN'T AN ACCIDENT. IT WAS MURDER!

HIS WIFE ALSO DIED SUDDENLY.

HE MUST HAVE KILLED NAINA THE SAME WAY.

YOU ARE A MURDERER

How dare you!

This has nothing to do with my wife.

Don't mock this issue by making personal attacks on me.

Sorry, Bheesham.

Rathi suddenly announced

- and I-- - We're back to square one, Sanyukta.

You didn't even bother telling me, let alone ask me.

I've to see the news and find out that my wife isn't coming.

I was going to call you last night.

Something important must have come up, as usual.

It's not like that, Bheesham.

The case has gotten way too complicated.

What can I do? I have to stay.

Crazy of me to think that you'd change.

You don't need a husband, Sanyukta. You need a constable.

Someone who'll follow all your orders.

I'm sorry, but I can't be your constable.

- Bheesham, listen to me! I-- - Jai Hind.

Jai Hind.

N-Naina was r-raped...

Her body was found in Surve's car.

When were you planning to tell us this?

I'm sorry.

We should have told you this earlier.

Did Tushar Surve do it?

Look, Naina's body was found in his campaign car.

But we haven't found any link between Tushar Surve and this case.

You didn't find any link?

Or you don't want to find one?

- No arrests have been made so far. - Look, we're trying our best.

Trying, my foot! Good luck putting your trust in them!

We're doing everything possible to catch your daughter's killer.

In fact, I need to ask you both a few questions about it.

- Question us? Go on! - May I?

Do you know why Naina and Ojas

- broke up? - What?

Ojas, boyfriend? Naina didn't have a boyfriend.

Tell them.

- Was she into drinking or smoking? - Disgusting! Not at all.

Look, drinking, smoking, affairs, dating...

Kids don't do such things with their parents' permission.

I'm sure that's what other kids do.

But Naina wasn't one of those kids. Say something!

No, I'm sorry. What he means is that

sometimes we tend to miss certain things about our kids.

No, we haven't missed out on anything. Why won't you talk?

Ojas was Naina's boyfriend.

What?

- What? - Naina told you this?

Well...

A few months back, my daughter

had gone to Lavanya's house...

for a sleepover.

I got a call from her at midnight, asking me

to pick her up from Ojas' house.

- Why? - By the time I got there...

I think she wasn't in her senses.

What do you mean?

Naina had started drinking?

Ojas had spiked her drink.

- What? - I was going to beat him up

- right there, but-- - What else are you hiding from me?

- Naina... - Naina and you...

Nothing. Do you think I'm not upset?

Why would I hide anything from you?

Uddhav...

Sorry.

You go. I'll take a rickshaw.

Payal...

Uddhav is here.

Did the cops tell you anything?

Do they know who did this?

Don't you think background checks

should be done before hiring?

I pay you for your work, not for your sermons.

Sahil Shrivastav and Raksha Patil.

I've checked both their accounts.

Your app's outline was mailed to someone from Pradeep Bhosle's team.

From your office. From this ID.

The night your best friend Naina was murdered,

she had a fight with her ex-boyfriend.

Why didn't you mention this earlier?

I honestly forgot. I'm not lying.

Were Aarav and Naina...

chilling together on the night of the fest?

Isn't that weird?

I don't know.

What was your relationship with Naina like?

- Zero. We hardly spoke. - Why?

She was your best friend's girlfriend, right?

Ex!

Ojas is a bit soft when it comes to girls.

Like his brain just shuts off.

But I could see through Naina's bullshit.

Bullshit?

She thought she was the best.

She's studious, quiet...

Just because she doesn't drink, she's better than us.

But deep down, she was an attention whore.

I mean "seeker."

Mr. Tripathi, soon you'll realise that, deep down,

everyone is an attention seeker.

Including you.

What was your last conversation with Naina?

You're just a jealous bitch, Naina.

Naina said that she'd meet me at my house.

That's it.

- What time did she leave? - I said 8 o'clock.

When did you last go to the basement?

On the night of the fest. I had gone there to smoke.

But I didn't stay for long.

I headed back upstairs.

No one saw you at the fest after 9 o'clock.

It was a snooze fest.

Boring! I went for a smoke

and then I left directly afterwards.

Actually, we have a picture from Ojas' phone.

Taken at 8:40 p.m., of Naina and Aarav together.

In the basement.

Lavanya, I'm not sure if I should trust you

or the phone.

Yes, Naina was in the basement for a short while.

- I just-- - Forgot about it, right?

In the CCTV footage,

your car exited at 10 o'clock.

Where were you before that?

Shit! What the hell did you do, man!

What have you... My dad's going to kill me, you know that!

Shut up, OJ.

After smoking, I need to be in my own zone sometimes.

I was just walking outside the campus.

Walk? For how long?

I lost track of time.

- Alone? - Alone.

This means no one can confirm whether you were indeed walking

for that one hour.

The next time I go, I'll take someone along.

That way, if there's a murder, they can be my alibi.

Sure, bring someone with you next time,

but this time, we found blood in the basement.

And Naina's last photo is with you.

In that basement.

We'll need your fingerprints and blood sample.

Sure.

But you'll find my fingerprints in that room anyway.

I mean, that's my spot after all.

So, that evidence won't hold up in court, right?

A real true crime expert!

I love reading about murders.

Let's hope your interest lies only in reading.

I'm sure these three are hiding something.

Let me tell you what happened that night.

At the fest, Naina and Ojas had a fight at around 8:30 p.m.

Where are you!

When guys like him are rejected, and they are boiling with rage,

they go and cry in front of other boys.

Ojas told Aarav the whole story.

Aarav's idea was to get Naina drunk

and then teach her a lesson.

They got Naina drunk, probably even spiked her drink.

Then headed to the basement at around 9 o'clock.

When she was fully intoxicated,

they raped her.

Afraid that she'll create a ruckus, they hit her with a beer bottle.

Now if Naina had woken up,

she would've told everyone the truth.

Ojas and Aarav were trapped.

That's why they had no choice but to kill Naina.

Putting the body in their car

would've left behind the blood and DNA traces.

They also knew that Mukesh fell sick

because of their drugs.

In fact, they even saw

that the key was in the campaign car.

After that, they stuffed Naina's body in that car

and left at 9:30 p.m.

And then, sent the car straight into the water.

Okay, I'll buy your theory for now.

But then why did Ojas message Naina

"sorry" at 11:30 p.m.?

Just to fool us, and see how you're falling for it.

If they dumped her body in the campaign car,

then what about Aarav's car that left at 10:30 p.m.?

Why didn't it leave with the campaign car at 9:38 p.m.?

Aarav probably came back to take his car.

The campaign car was anyway going to go underwater.

I don't think they had the patience to call for a cab after killing someone.

But Aarav wasn't seen on the CCTV

while coming back, right?

He could've jumped over the wall.

Look, Naina came to the fest wearing a costume.

But we found her body in different clothes.

Who changed her clothes then?

Are you going to grill me with all these questions

or will you leave some for Ojas and Aarav to answer too?

In this puzzle, there's one piece that just doesn't fit.

- What? - Naina.

Naina's friends said she didn't drink or smoke.

And she even had a fight with Ojas that night.

Then why would she go to the storeroom with Ojas?

Why do people run straight into the ghost in horror movies?

Tell me.

Not all questions have answers.

Yeah. Like how you became a police officer.

Anyway, until we get the detailed toxicology report,

we have no case against them.

Hello, ma'am.

I'm Randhir Jha, Naina's professor.

Hello.

I'm really sorry for your loss.

Naina was way different from my other students.

She was smart, curious.

You know, ma'am, Naina and I had a bet

on who could find an author or book every month that

the other person hasn't read.

This is this month's book...

that I couldn't give her.

- Sir. - Das.

Naina's toxicology report.

No alcohol, no drugs.

The whole basis of your investigation is wrong.

This isn't my theory, sir.

Then why are you not stopping him?

He has told me his theory thrice since the last half an hour.

I've given you this case because you are my best officer.

Yes, sir.

Ojas' questioning is about to begin. Go handle it.

Jai is already there, sir.

Tell me why you killed her!

You raped Naina, stuffed her body in that car

- and then dumped it in-- - Excuse me, ACP Kanwal.

What is the basis of your allegation?

You know who his lawyer is, right?

Yes, sir.

Do we have the reports of the blood

that was found in the basement?

- Not yet. - Then what's the point

of this line of questioning?

This means that you've already decided my client is the culprit.

- Excellent. - Sir, listen--

Jai.

- ACP Sanyukta Das. - Hello.

No one's accusing your client here.

We just want to know what happened

on the night of the fest. That's it.

If your client is innocent, then he'll have no problem

cooperating with us.

Ojas, why did you fight with Naina that night?

I thought she was dating another guy.

- Who? - No clue.

She'd been acting weird lately.

She seemed lost, always glued to her phone.

She stopped hanging out with Lavanya also.

Even during the fest, she was on a call with some guy.

- Who was that guy? - I don't know.

When I asked her, she told me to back off.

Then, she left the fest.

I tried to text her

to say sorry.

Tried to call her, but her phone was off.

Why was your car at the college all night?

I was way too drunk, so...

I didn't want to drive drunk.

That's why...

But in the CCTV footage from your building,

Aarav's car reached your house at around 3 o'clock.

We were just driving around. Just...

I know what you think, ma'am. I know what you think.

That I raped Naina, murdered her...

But trust me, I just loved her.

I really loved her, man!

Are we done here?

Okay, Ojas, you may leave.

We'll call you again if we need to.

Let's go.

Come on, let's go.

What did you just do? Are you out of your mind?

Why did you release him?

Because there weren't any traces of drugs

or alcohol in Naina's toxicology report.

So we have no proof against him.

I was making him spill that very proof you've been chasing!

You can't extract statements just by screaming and threatening!

You know what the real problem is?

This job has become your identity. That's why you're so afraid to quit.

ACP Sanyukta Das, who are you

if you're not the star cop of this Crime Cell?

That's why you've been holding on to this case.

Once this case is over,

ACP Sanyukta Das will just vanish into thin air.

Gone! Boom!

So, madam...

why don't you find another hobby?

Find the proof first, then we'll see!

Cheers!

- Bye, bye. - Bye.

All set for tonight.

What's up, boys?

Watching you guys enjoy like this

took me back to my college days.

- Want to make some money? - How?

- Let's make a bet. - What bet?

This vodka shot...

and this cap...

I'll drink this without touching the cap.

- That's impossible. - It's possible.

If I do it, you'll have to pay me 500 bucks.

Why 500? We'll give you 1,000 instead.

What's he doing?

That was fun!

Amazing! Now give me my 1,000 bucks.

But you didn't even drink it.

Done.

Without touching the cap.

Lame! But that was fun.

Keep it. Enjoy.

Where are you going? Show us more tricks.

- Chicks like tricks. - Sit with us.

I know many tricks.

I've impressed a lot of girls in college with these tricks.

We didn't have DMs back then.

Which college did you go to?

Hard to remember a college that

I never really attended.

Cheers!

- Cheers. - Cheers.

How do you know this?

There are lots of ways to find out...

who is leaking this information. Remember?

So, you called?

What happened now? Did someone die again?

What happened now?

Since when have you been working with Pradeep?

What nonsense is this!

I never sent this.

She told you this?

I haven't said anything.

Your email has done the deed.

Are you fucking serious, Tushar?

Raksha, I know you're very territorial of him,

but this is really stupid.

What? What are you all doing?

Guys, I'll be back.

- I've been to your college once. - Yes.

Not a single hot-tot there.

"Hot-tot"?

- Nice, we'll use that same word. - Go ahead.

Well, some girl from your college was killed, right?

- Yes. - What was that girl's name?

- Neha... - Naina.

Yeah, Naina. She looked so boring.

She only acts like she's boring.

Really? You seem to know a lot about her.

No, really. Initially, even we thought so.

- But... - But?

Recently, we saw something that changed our mind...

What do you mean?

You won't tell anyone, will you?

- Bro! - See this.

Mahi!

Mom!

- What are you doing? - What's all this?

Selfies, what else?

Why are you taking such vulgar selfies?

What do you mean by "vulgar selfies"?

I took them just like that.

Is anyone forcing you to do this?

God, Mom. No one's forcing me.

It's just self-love. It increases body positivity.

Everyone does this.

Do you know how dangerous this is?

Data gets leaked from phones and laptops.

Fake videos are made, and...

- You're still a child, Mahi. - "Child."

Are you sexually active?

God! Mom, that's so cringe.

You talk about being sexually active like it's a disease.

- Well, there are diseases. - Anyways...

why do you act like you care?

Aren't there already enough dead people for you to care about?

How dare you talk to me like that!

- Are you out of your mind? - No, I'm not.

Are you and Dad having problems again?

Is that why you've decided to revive Project Mahi?

Hoping that'll help fix your marriage?

We are not done here! One second!

Jai, I'm busy. I'll come in a bit.

I have found proof.

I'll be there in 10 minutes.

Okay! I guess we're done here.

You know what? Maybe I should just scold myself.

I've learnt to take care of myself anyway.

Because for you, something more important will always be waiting.

You are grounded! You hear me?

Unbelievable!

What's the proof?

A video is going viral amongst the boys

of Naina's college.

I thought you'd want to see it.
