On the letters

Where your name was written

We sat reading them

Under the shade of trees with thorns

Which skies have you

Become a star of?

When will you shine

Before my eyes again?

People may read the secrets in my eyes

I kept hiding my glances away!

Well said.

-Nice one! -That's awesome!

Bhabhiji's put out an arrest warrant.

Scram, or you're going to get thrashed.

With a baton, of all things!

You're drinking illegally here,

so you're definitely getting a thrashing tonight, asshole.

All right, brother, I'm out.

Cool, catch you later.

Happy birthday, Kukkad!

Come on.

Stay put.

-Come on, give me a hug. -Live long, brothers!

So that we can keep drinking like this.

Don't leave till you finish the bottle.

For sure.

-Happy birthday, again! -Thank you.

-Later, guys. Good night! -Good night!

-Keep rocking! -Keep rocking till you can't anymore!

Move over.

Let me feel that college vibe.

Come on, Papa!

Two drinks in and it's always the same story.

If mum finds out…

Shut up, mama's boy.

Who taught you to ride a bike, huh?

But it was mum who got me one.

Come on, man.

Please.

Will you sing for me, then?

Sat Sri Akaal, sir.

Yes. I'm on my way, sir.

Silky.

Yes, ma'am?

It's a poultry farm, ma'am.

It had shut down a while ago.

The watchman's on the run.

There were four people, doesn't look like any of them will survive.

Watch your step.

Were they kept in chains?

Yes.

Guess who owns the farm?

Who?

Let go of me.

Stop.

Stop.

What wrong has my son done?

Where are you taking him?

You couldn't catch my daughter's killer,

and now you're taking my son too?

Ma'am, let us do our job.

Mummy Ji…

Mummy Ji, come with me.

Mr. Atwal, whose dead bodies are those?

Mr. Atwal, is it true that they were chained up?

Mr. Atwal, tell us. Mr. Atwal!

Answer us, Mr. Atwal!

We need answers, Mr. Atwal! Mr. Atwal!

Why were they tied up, Mr. Atwal?

The farm owner, Baljinder Atwal, has been arrested.

I knew he would turn out to be a fuck up in life.

Who were those four people?

Twinkle isn't picking up her phone.

Mr. Atwal, answer the question.

And why are you crying now?

Wasn't it your brother who got them married?

My brother's long dead.

Can you leave him alone at least now?

He has ruined my daughter's life.

Can you shut up for a minute? Let me hear what's going on.

You've been whining since morning.

The owner of the farm, Baljinder Atwal, has been arrested.

But is he the one responsible for the tragic deaths of these individuals?

Thank you for the update, Jasjeet.

Now, to discuss this heart-wrenching incident, we are joined by Tavleen Singh,

an advocate for workers from backward areas of of UP, Bihar, and Jharkhand.

She runs a prominent NGO dedicated to the cause.

Tavleen ji, speaking of social balance,

four innocent people were charred to death.

What is your initial response?

Simarpreet ji, until we have all the details from the police…

Yes.

I can't definitively say

whether those who lost their lives were workers on the farm or not.

Okay.

However, I'd like to remind that our Guru's teachings tell us that

"Manas Ki Jaat Sabhe Eke Pehchan Bo"--

meaning that all human beings are created equal.

Sir, where did this fire happen?

When the our Gurus did not differentiate between any of us, who…

Where did they die?

At a poultry farm in Dhukki village.

For sure. Definitely, sir.

Jai Hind.

Jai Hind, sir.

Sir, we've arrested the farm owner, Baljinder Atwal.

The watchman is still on the run.

We're issuing a lookout notice for him.

How many lookout notices are you planning to issue, Dhanwant ji?

We're still "looking" for that Pamma, aren't we?

Garundi was supposed to make the arrest, right?

Yes, sir.

If he can't handle the case, get someone else to do it.

Take another ASI along with you.

Sir, it's not Garundi's fault.

Pamma got tipped off.

Dhanwant ji, I assigned you the case of Preet Bajwa's murder.

That one is still unsolved.

And now we have more crimes related to it.

First, it was Mahi Verma's assault in plain sight,

and now this incident with the workers.

The Human Rights Commission has gotten involved.

I've received four calls from the SSP since morning.

Dhanwant ji, I'm aware of your family situation,

but work has to be priority, right?

-Sir, I am trying my best. -No.

I want results in two days.

I want an arrest.

If not, I'll have to replace not just the team, but the I.O. as well.

Sir.

When's the last time you saw Pamma?

About thirty years ago.

He used to play right here in this very courtyard.

He never came back to visit you?

With his parents gone, why would he bother visiting his aunt?

What happened to his parents?

Ask your police department that.

Watch yourself, old lady.

Don't even think about it!

Stop right there.

She's sitting here just because she's a woman.

Otherwise, no one in a police uniform gets to enter this house.

Are you waiting for a cup of tea now?

Good going, Punjab.

Hey, where can I find Malli?

How would I know, sir?

Oh, is that so?

We found a bottle of your moonshine in his warehouse.

It whispered to me that you'd know.

Lakkha and Malli used to come here together every day…

On Lakkha's bike.

Step back. Step back, boy.

Until the officer comes, don't open the gate. Step back.

Please move to the side, brother.

Brother, who were the people who died?

I think they were workers from UP-Bihar.

Step back.

Did they release their names?

No, they haven't.

It's being alleged that last evening at Atwal And Sons Poultry Farm

a fire broke out and resulting in significant loss…

Sir, what are the names of the people who died?

These motherfucking pests!

You lot have been bugging us since morning.

Got it, asshole? Or should I use my baton?

Get out of here!

Listen…

They've taken the bodies to the Civil Hospital morgue.

-You can get more details there. -Civil Hospital?

No problem. Go ahead.

Baba ji, where's Lakkha?

Lakkha is dead.

His mom's dead too, that bitch.

If you say so.

He's not here, Paaji.

Well, well.

Hey!

Where's Malli?

Malli is dead.

-His mom's dead too, that bitch. -I got that already, Baba ji.

Speak up.

Sir, it's not Malli's fault.

Four people are dead, asshole.

Arrest him. He'll spill the beans when in custody.

Let's go. Come on.

Sir, I just tended to his wounds for he's an old friend of mine.

Who started the fire?

We don't know, sir.

We went to see the Lohri celebrations

and had a few drinks there.

When we got back,

the fire was out of control.

It really isn't Malli's fault.

Then why did he run away?

Sir, you know how it is.

It's always the poor who get blamed in situations like this.

Malli actually tried to put out the fire.

In fact, he got his hand burnt in the process.

Where is he now?

I dropped him at the bypass.

But I don't know where he's headed.

He was talking about seeing a doctor.

Scrub the floors properly.

You'll have to do it again.

Hold on. Wait a minute.

Oh, hello? Where to?

Brother, I want to see the burnt bodies.

You're not allowed to. Go away.

Do you know their names or anything about them?

Was it someone you know?

Maybe.

There's no point in looking at them. They're burnt to bits.

One person survived.

He's unconscious.

He's in the Burns Ward in the next building.

Is it this way?

The building next door.

Clean it thoroughly with silver nitrate and then bandage it.

Okay, sir.

-Surgery done for the patient in bed 12? -Yes, sir.

Yes, ma'am?

Pamma's parents died in '94…

during the militancy.

Guess who raised Pamma?

Who?

Karamjot's family.

They got him educated, gave him a job.

Pamma's got no family except Karamjot's.

So if Karamjot orders Pamma to do something, he won't say no.

Hello, Garundi?

Hello?

Ma'am, I'll call you back.

All okay, Garundi?

Let them pass.

Where are you headed?

Solan, Paaji.

Check his license.

-Show me your license. -Sure.

Let him pass.

Let the truck through.

Hello?

Yes.

Pamma Paaji.

Sat Sri Akaal.

Got it.

Paaji…

Careful, paaji.

The bloody cops are all over.

Eat up, I am eating too.

If you fuss, your mother will slap you.

Jagdish hasn't been home for two days.

Did he contact you?

We hardly talk these days.

He doesn't call me or pick up my calls.

I'll talk to the others in the morning and let you know.

Save him from falling apart, Bhabhi.

There's only so much guilt a man can take.

Sat Sri Akaal, mummy.

What are you doing here?

Can I speak to Silky for a minute?

Just once.

Silky says she already told you all she had to back in Manali,

and that you should've done the same.

Mummy…

Silky…

Silky, just talk to me this one time.

Silky!

Silky!

Are you okay?

Where's Paaji?

When's he coming back?

What did you get from ruining my life?

The house, the land, I already gave you everything.

Then why did you do it?

What did you get out of it?

And this kid, how do you know it's mine?

It's yours.

Because I…

I can't…

I can't have one.

And the land you keep going on about,

I never wanted it.

All I ever wanted was a family.

I was scared that when you get married,

and have a wife and son of your own,

our family would be broken apart

because of the land.

And look, that's exactly what happened.

Our family is destroyed.

It wasn't I who destroyed this family,

nor was it my wife.

You're the one who ruined it.

First, you ruined yours, and then you came for mine.

And it doesn't matter how many Gurudwaras you visit now,

you won't find peace anywhere.

You are Rakesh Kumar?

I'm Arun.

Are you Rakesh Kumar?

Have you seen him?

Have you ever met him?

Ra…

Rakesh…

Rakesh Kumar.

Yes, Rakesh.

Do you know Rakesh Kumar?

-Yes. -Do you know Rakesh Kumar?

Rakesh…

Was he at the farm with you?

Was Rakesh Kumar at the farm?

Farm…

Yes.

Raju… Sirda…

Raju Sirda.

Farm.

At the farm…

-Has the victim regained consciousness? -Yes, ma'am, this morning.

Get the doctor's permission.

We need to take his statement.

Yes, ma'am. Okay, ma'am.

Hey, listen…

Stop!

Gurpreet!

-Yes? -You saw a guy running away?

-Which guy? -The one in the red sweater.

Go, find him.

Paaji.

Hmm?

-Is ma'am here? -Yes.

She's questioning Baljinder.

Hmm.

I don't know--

who they were or where they came from.

My farm's been shut for six months.

You can ask anyone.

Why would I be lying?

I see.

So, someone brought those four people to your farm

and set them on fire without your knowledge?

I already told you, Malli has the keys.

He stays at the farm.

So Malli's someone you trust.

That's why you gave him the keys, right?

You can never really trust a servant, can you?

Karamjot must've bribed him.

Karamjot doesn't want me to sell the property.

You saw what that bastard Pamma did to Mahi, right?

And yet, instead of arresting him, you arrest me.

That's some police work.

Who's Raju Sirda?

Who?

I don't know him.

He's not going to confess anything.

We need to find Malli, Garundi.

Ma'am, I've already informed all the hospitals and dispensaries of the area.

Malli's in bad shape, he'll need to see a doctor soon.

Ask Aujla to find out about Raju Sirda.

Can we get more details, ma'am? Who's this guy?

The victim in the hospital is not in a state to give his statement.

But he was mumbling a couple of names.

Raju Sirda and someone named Rakesh.

Find out about them.

-Ma'am? -Hmm?

What is it?

Ma'am, I know it's bad timing,

but can I get a day off?

-Silky… -Is she unwell?

She left me and went back to her parents' place.

At least, you know where she is.

I'll talk to the SHO about your leave.

But he might take you off the case then.

But then how will you manage the casework by yourself?

Forget it, it's fine.

Okay.

And yes, there was someone else at the hospital.

Probably someone close to the victim.

Something seemed off about him.

I'll check it out.

Hmm.

The farm's owner, Baljinder Atwal…

Step aside!

It is still not known who those four people were?

I… I can explain.

I can explain… fuck me!

Hey, stop!

Listen to me…

Just hear me out!

What did you do with Rakesh Kumar? What did you do with him, asshole?

Nothing. I didn't do anything!

You knew he was there, didn't you?

You knew, right?

You could've told me, you motherfucker!

He was my father!

I've never even seen his fucking face.

I never saw my father's face in my life, you motherfucker!

All I did was get him a job.

That was twenty years ago.

I just got him a job.

He was burned to death.

They killed him.

No, no, no, son.

No, please, I've got young granddaughters.

One is seven and the other one is eight. I'm their only family.

I swear… I swear on Waheguru, I didn't do anything.

They'll end up being orphans just like you.

They'll end up like you. Don't kill me. I didn't do anything.

They too will be orphans like you.

The number you are trying to call is currently switched off. Please…

How many days has it been, ma'am?

Since that night…

Can you get someone to check all the hospitals and…

morgues?

I'm sure it's nothing that serious, ma'am.

But I'll find out anyway.

Yes, Aujla?

Sat Sri Akaal, ma'am.

Ma'am, what was the name you gave?

Raju Sirda, right?

Yes, why?

Ma'am, we got a call from the control room.

Sir, his name is Arun Kumar,

and his father died in the poultry farm fire.

Raju Sirda is the one who got him that job.

Okay, update the file

and hand it over to Gill.

Sir?

Gill is taking over the case.

The SSP's orders.

But sir, you had given me two days.

The crimes keep piling up one after another,

and I'm not sure how dedicated you are at this point.

This… this is a crime of passion, sir.

We arrested the guy right after the crime and got his confession.

And as far as my dedication is concerned,

let me tell you my husband has been missing for four days.

I don't even know if he's dead or alive.

And yet, here I am, doing my duty sixteen hours a day.

What else do I need to do to prove my dedication?

You're getting emotional, Dhanwant.

Let's go to my cabin and talk.

Come.

Sir, why is it that only the women officers

get accused of not being in control of their emotions?

That's not right, Dhanwant.

I'll hand over the case file once my two days are over.

And that's tomorrow, sir.

Ma'am, we have a lead on Pamma.

We still have a day, right?

I'll follow up on it.

Yes, what is it?

I got burned a bit.

Take a seat.

The wound has spread quite a bit.

You should've come sooner.

How did it happen?

The pressure cooker exploded.

I need to clean this up,

or it'll get infected.

Wait here, I'll be right back.

Ma'am, a doctor from Multani Colony called.

The watchman from the poultry farm is over there.

Let's go.

-Balkar Paaji, let's go. -I'll talk to you later.

Jeet, get the car out.

Let's go, Balbir.

Hurry up, guys.

Hey…

Where's the driver of 5484?

Over there, sir.

Hey,

I heard you were headed to Solan.

So, what changed?

Did it start snowing there?

We need to give twenty minutes for the medicine to rest,

-and then we'll dress the wound. -But why this long a wait?

The medicine won't work otherwise.

As you can see, the wound has spread.

Yes, Garundi?

Ma'am, Pamma was fleeing Punjab

when he got a call and changed his plan.

-The call must have been Karamjot's. -Exactly.

He's currently using a truck driver's phone.

I sent a request to the surveillance team to trace the location.

Great.

We got a tip on Malli's location.

There's a doctor in Multani Colony.

I'm heading there.

All right, I'll meet you there then.

Harpreet, send Garundi our live location.

Okay, ma'am.

Doctor?

Who is it, doctor?

Who is at the door, doctor?

Who are you?

Where is he?

Bastard!

-Find the bastard! -Yes, ma'm,

Don't even think about it.

You're going to kill me anyway.

No one's going to kill you. Just tell me everything you know.

Catch him!

Yes, Paaji.

Ma'am, you okay?

Ma'am?

Ma'am, are you all right?

Ma'am?

Harpreet, call an ambulance.
