Original subtitles

Can I talk to her, please?

- Yes... - I mean... in private.

We have nothing to talk about in private.

We have no such relationship anymore.

Say only what you can say in her presence.

- Just give me one more chance, please! - Let's go.

Don't go! Please... listen to me. Don't go...

Merin... I have been pretty dark in the way I treated you.

I know that. I've hurt you a lot too.

- I admit that. - Don't try to be a hero by admitting anything.

I spoiled two years of my life with you.

You know I have an issue with depression.

- How many times did I tell you? - You have no damn issue!

The issue is all mine! The day you asked me to unfriend Vineeth

I should've said goodbye to you!

I swore to you in Church that he was like a brother to me!

It all started that day... and I...

- Anything else? - Do you want anything?

No.

Whenever I want to say something, you claim depression.

And with that excuse, you neither study, nor work

and all you do is torture me!

I trusted you for a long time.

Don't try your tricks on me again. We're over. That's it!

Honey, I have no one but you.

Please try to understand!

Want me to call Vineeth? Want me to say sorry to him?

- Give me the number. Please! - Derrick! Enough with the drama.

I'll commit suicide.

I've tried twice already.

But this time I'll really do it. For sure.

I'm begging you... please!

I...I can't breathe...

I can't catch my breath, Merin...

- Help me... please... - How many times have you

pulled the same old tricks? What a loser you are!

Derrick... listen...

If you keep hounding her like this...

it will affect her future too, won't it?

Honey... honey...

I am yours, aren't I? Only yours?

I'm your DaDa... aren't I?

Give me one chance... just one more!

- If I ever hurt you again, you can cut me off forever! - Derrick

for the last time - I don't like you!

Never again...

('He really stabbed her' 'Oh no!')

("No!" "Call the police!")

The grounds are over there. Just half a kilometre. Come on.

Sir, please put your camera away.

- This is a private area. - Ok, Ok.

(Random announcements)

- Bro, Sachin. How are you? - Great! - See you around.

Want to try, Sir?

Careful! It's loaded.

Milan... Milan Shekhar.

No, Ma'am... no one under that name.

There's a chance he checked in under a different name.

No, Ma'am.

You're sure you haven't seen him around?

Yes, Ma'am... I don't recall seeing him.

- Excuse me... Hi, Ma'am. - Hi.

We will check again and inform you. There's nothing to worry.

You may go to your room now.

- You are... Avinash? - Yes, Ma'am. I'm the manager.

- Ok. - Hi. - See, Mr Avinash... - Yes?

- Do not allow anyone to come to my room. - Ok.

- Except for him. He's my manager. - Ok.

Arun! He will show you the room, Ma'am. Please.

(Ritika agrees. Background talks going on)

- Which movie is this, Ma'am? - The title isn't fixed.

- And the hero? - Prashant Ravi. - Oh! He's very good.

Anyway... looking good, Ma'am. You have put on weight.

What?

Weight... in a good way!

How is that your business?

What right do you have to give an opinion about my body?

Madam, I was just making small talk.

Because I'm an actress, you can make small talk about anything?

What's your name again? Avinash?

Not done, Avinash. Absolutely not done!

I'm sorry, Ma'am.

Sanath, if she says this hotel is also not ok, I can't do anything.

- There's a limit! - And one more thing. That photo I showed before

That man should not enter the hotel premises at any cost.

Give me your number. I'll share his picture. Inform security too.

I cannot guarantee that, Ma'am.

We can stop someone from going to your room. But we cannot

stop a guest entering the premises without reason.

Unless it's a request from the police.

Come on, Ritu. Don't be ridiculous.

Go to your room. I'll be right here. There are people around.

When I am not in, no one should open my room

even to clean it. Do you need a police request

or court order for that as well?

The boy died too, Sir. Ten minutes ago.

- Any particular information? - No, Sir. We searched his house.

Usual story. Romance, argument, break-up.

The girl's family had twice filed complaints

- against him for harassment. - Hmm.

Make arrangements to hand over the bodies as soon as possible.

- We've told them, Sir. - Ok.

This is the 12th case of stalker killing.

That too in the last four years.

Why didn't we take any action? Despite there being a complaint?

Sir, in this case, we had issued warnings twice to the boy.

There are many other complaints in similar cases, Sir.

More than 100 in Kochi alone.

But in most cases, the parents

of the girls involved, don't want to take the case forward.

Other than issue warnings, what more can we do, Sir?

On the chance that a crime may take place,

we can't follow up or go after them. We don't have

- the force or time for that. - So what is the solution?

Based on that logic, should we just sit around waiting

for the next crime? No! We have to put an end to this!

Didn't IG Vinayachandran have a project?

I'd heard about it in Chennai. Some of our people

teaming up with psychologists to track stalkers

and prevent crimes... something like that? - You're right, Sir.

In fact, the boy in the incident today was recommended by them

to be put on a high alert list. And it was very effective.

But the project was halted in between, Sir.

A person they were tracking committed suicide.

And with that, the team backed out.

You mean a lady they were meant to protect?

- I don't remember... - Not the lady, Sir. She is safe.

This was a person they were following - a stalker.

Action!

Just drop it! Don't spoil my morning with all this gossip!

Cut it!

Ok! Vinu, set up for a wide.

Hashmi, get the juniors ready.

This scene is done. Now we have a bit left of yesterday's scene.

- You have a dress change. - Ok. - Appu, hand over the costume.

Quick!

Wet cloth?

- Mobile? - Here it is.

- Here is the costume. - Put it there.

- Hand me the scene. - Ok.

- Who brought this gift? - Someone

handed it over to Suresh Chetan in the mess.

- Call him. - Ok.

Sanath!

- Sanath! - Yeah?

What happened?

He's back!

- Who gave you this gift? - A boy who was among the kids

from the school nearby. He said to give it to you.

Was he with them?

No. This was a boy in 5th or 6th grade.

- Who's it? - Look.

- Hello? Madam? - Hello Tina...

Could you check your messages please?

- Yes, I saw it, Madam. - He is back!

See... that is my apartment and that's my dog.

He's been inside my apartment somehow.

Didn't you say you were monitoring him round the clock?

- Madam... - See... I gave you all the details...

What the hell do you think you're doing?

And what about the team? They followed up for a while.

And then they just disappeared.

All of you promised me that I am safe.

If you can't do your job, just tell me that!

Madam, please watch your tone.

What do you mean I should watch my tone?

No one is monitoring him anymore. Got it?

If you want, you can register a fresh complaint at the station.

What about that team?

That team and that project no longer exist.

You can't just say that.

Tina, I need help.

I trust the team with that.

I want to live.

(Justin) There is no point in blaming each other.

What's done is done. Now we just need to face it.

(Tanvi) You know what? I've had enough!

You've all treated me like a kid and patronised me!

I am not anyone's subordinate.

(Tina) Of course you are! When we formed the team

some things were mutually agreed upon.

You cannot mix your personal issues with the project. Got it?

(Ayesha) See... unless we have a basic sense of discipline

we cannot take this forward. Frankly

I don't think any of us have that right now.

If this is how things are we will have to end this right here.

- Vidya Rajan. - Tina Sebastian.

- Shall we? - Yes, Sir.

- Tina... - Sir? - Vidya is a criminal psychologist.

And a software developer.

Vidya is the founder of a company

that develops software for mental health professionals.

I've already told you about Tina.

She is a Sub Inspector and one of the most

efficient officers in the Department.

That's why I didn't consider any other lady officers

before I invited Tina to be part of the team.

- Come in. Hello! - Hello, Sir.

- Tina, this is Ayesha. - Hello. - Ayesha is a psychiatrist.

She is with the Central Forensic Institute in Bengaluru.

They are here with a proposal. A very interesting one.

- Ok. - And I want you to be a part of it.

Once during a meeting, Vidya presented this idea to me.

And I felt it sounded very effective.

- Can one of you explain it to her? - Sure, Sir. - Sir.

- Shall we? - Sure. Please.

- Sir... - Sir...

You go.

Ok. We usually see that

it is after a crime is commited that the Law or the police

get involved. What we have in mind

is a concept of positive policing.

- Basically crime prevention, but also... - Excuse me, Sir.

Crime prevention is something our department is already doing.

Of course.

But even then, crimes against women are not decreasing.

In fact, statistics show that they are increasing.

- Sir... - Let her finish, Tina. You continue, Ayesha. - Yes, Sir.

Our focus here is on stalking.

People who follow women and attack them. Especially

after a break up or rejection

or in cases of one sided love or

under the delusion that someone is in love with them.

50 to 60% of them have mental health issues.

They suffer from personality disorders that can be treated.

With timely intervention, we can save

the women who are being targeted

and ensure medication and counselling to the stalkers.

Which means, not only the victims

but also the stalkers will have a better quality of life.

We have identified 12 such cases.

12 stalkers we feel are capable of violent criminal behaviour.

There are written complaints against them before the police.

We have shortlisted three of those cases for our project.

We recommend to the police department to keep

the rest on a high alert list. I mean, we recommend to you.

These three cases will be the focus in our first phase.

We will monitor them, with their consent.

In other words, they will be under our surveillance.

I will come to those details later.

They will be given counselling. And medicines, if required.

We will also be in touch with people in their close circles.

Basically, we lessen the chances of them committing a crime.

And we can know in advance if they are planning something.

That's what we are looking at.

Why would they cooperate with us?

We know the history of guys like that.

As we said, these are cases where the FIR is not filed yet.

But there are police complaints against them.

So, as long as they are part of this project

all legal proceedings against them will be suspended.

That's the offer.

When we are convinced they are no longer dangerous

- they will be free. - But Sir, isn't there still

an issue of privacy here?

Especially without a warrant or any kind of directive...

And their private data could be misused in so many ways.

There is no secrecy here. We act only with their consent.

It is completely up to them whether they wish to cooperate.

And also Tina, the whole thing will be under police supervision.

Without our help, even they cannot acess the details

of the surveillance. That's the way the software

- they have developed, works. - Software? - Yes.

And it's called EYES.

Bascially, this is a mental health monitoring system.

Run with the help of artificial intelligence.

Before that, to start with

let me introduce a device that is part of this process.

The stalkers who cooperate with us will be wearing this.

24x7

Basically, it has all the functions of a smartwatch.

They could tell others that it is just a smartwatch.

It is waterproof. If for any reason

they take it off, we will get a notification immediately.

So, if for medical reasons or any other reason

they need to take it off, they have to inform us immediately.

- Sir, shall we? - Please go ahead.

- Tina. - Sir.

Hello? Let's start.

- (Tanvi) Ayesha Di? - You can start. - Ok.

- Complete control of this device will be with the Cyber Cell. - Ok

- Cyber CPO Justin George will also be part of your team. - Ok.

The token to activate the device will be generated by Vidya now.

And Justin will input it from there.

And then the device will get activated. Take a look.

That's the person we have under surveillance.

35 kms speed. Which means the person is in a vehicle.

BP is normal. Heartbeat is 83 beats per minute.

Fine. Which means the person is in a normal state of mind.

Noticed? The travelling speed is reducing.

So we can check if the speed is maintained at that level.

If it is, that means the person is now walking.

Yes. St Athene Medicals, Jos Junction.

The shop details along with the phone number.

So that means, someone should be before this all 24 hours?

No. This software will be installed on the team's phones.

If there are abnomal variations, we will get a notification.

We can contact him right away. And if needed

take him into custody.

Before that, we will inform everyone concerned.

Including the lady being targeted.

Especially if we get the indication that

he is moving close to her location.

How will we know where the targeted woman is?

The targets in these cases

have promised us their 100% cooperation.

They will always be in touch with us.

Their locations will be

tracked 24x7 by our system through their phones.

With their permission, just their locations.

Their call details or messages will not be accessible to us.

So their privacy is assured.

Is this... in this building right now?

- Sir? May I? - Yes. Come in.

This is Tanvi. Psychologist.

- Hi. - She is Ayesha's research associate.

The third member of the team.

Ayesha will be the team leader. And this will be your office.

You can start working.

There is a small issue with this scheme of yours, ladies.

Heartbeats can rise to 100 or 150 even at the gym.

BP can also vary. There are a 100 such possibilities.

Will you take someone into custody for that?

We need to take notice only if he is within a 5 km radius

of the victim when that happens.

If there is such proximity, the system will give a notification.

With AI, it's a combination of a lot of things.

It's because you don't really know it well, Chechi.

- Tanvi, right? - Yes, Chechi.

- Ayesha? - Yes. -Ok.

- And you are both based in Bengaluru? - Yes.

From the start?

After 12th, I studied medicine in Vellore.

After my PG I joined the Research Institute.

Tanvi was in Kozhikode before she joined me there.

So when did you decide you could do the job of the police too?

That's not it, Chechi. We decided we could

get the police to do our job too.

Tanvi, call me Tina. Or Madam.

- Hello, Madam. - Hi.

Hi there! Chechi!

- It's been a while. - I am going to be around now, Justin.

- They are... - We were introduced yesterday.

- Yes. - Oh!

So what's this all about Justin? Some software... or computer...

- Does it mean anything? - Yes! Vidya developed the software.

I run my own company.

Oh! So it's a business deal?

- So you're making a good profit? - To make a profit

we first have to get past the trial period.

- Trial? - Yes. For now, we have three cases.

Only if we see success with that will the project move forward.

It's a great idea, Chechi. You must have seen the device.

I will introduce the software to you. Ok?

Our first case. Milan Shekhar.

(Ritika) "It all started one year back."

"Before I became a star."

So this is where you were hiding out.

What else? I can't bear that singing of hers.

She is going to wind up in someone's bedroom tonight.

Either with Umesh... or that fraud Benson.

- Really? - You doubt it?

Do you think she gets all those measly roles

because she's a great actress?

Hey! This is so great. Really brilliant!

- Whose page is this? - Milan's.

- Milan who? - Photographer Milan Shekhar.

But this was clicked by Anil Thirumala.

For a jewellery ad.

Oh! When I saw it on Milan's page

I thought he took them. Since when did Anil Thirumala

start taking such nice photos?

But this is not the original. It's been treated. Made better.

- Who's this Milan? - He's the best!

His photography is just superb.

He's done a portfolio for me.

A bit expensive. But totally worth it.

He is based in Bengaluru, I think.

"It grew into an online friendship."

"And when I say friendship, I mean, just that."

"With all the limits that implies."

"He kept posting my photos."

"And somehow, it gave me a lot of confidence."

Swetha... Vedika... Ashwin...

Unnikrishnan... Meenakshi... and...

Usha... the rest of you can leave.

Thank you!

- Hello Ma'am. - Hi. - Someone delivered this for you

at the reception.

- Thank you. - Welcome, Ma'am.

- Hello. (Milan) - Surprise!

- Who's this? - Welcome to Bengaluru!

- Milan? - Yes!

Look, Milan. This isn't very nice of you.

- What? - I only told you I was coming to Bengaluru.

I didn't tell you where I was staying

- or any such detail because... - Come on!

It's easy enough to find out. This is my city!

Milan, with due respect let me make one thing clear.

I don't like your coming into my space without my permission.

The reason I didn't even share my phone number

is because my privacy is that important to me.

Privacy? Between us, Ritika?

What do you mean 'between us'?

- This is you and me, honey. - Honey?

Look, if I've given you cause to misinterpret my feelings

I am extremely sorry. But from now on

- don't try to get in touch with me! - Hey! You're joking, right?

Hello... please get me a room in another hotel.

(Ritika) "I thought that would be the end of that."

"But it was only the beginning."

"He kept me sending me pictures of myself."

"Candid pictures that he took without my knowledge."

"It was always the same giftwrap."

"A giftwrap made of a collage of pictures of me."

The parcel is for Ritika Syam.

I was told to deliver to this address.

(Ritika's Dad) Honey... a parcel came for you.

It's a photo of you somewhere with friends.

Honey... you... smoke?

"He always seemed to be near me. Without my knowing it."

"I was beginning to get scared."

Please sit, Madam.

He says that at first you were all lovey-dovey

and when you became a star you dumped him.

The full chat history is here. Please read it if you like, Sir.

Yes, that's what I am going through right now.

This is his phone. The issue here is

sometimes when you use stuff like the heart emoji

the recipient might interpret it in a different way.

This one for instance - 'man, you are just amazing'...

- It's stuff like that. - Sir, that was about his photos.

That was not an invitation or flirting or anything. That's why

the minute he started behaving in a weird way, I blocked him.

Social media chats have a language

that is there between friends. You can check for yourself.

I know how social media chatting works.

I am on it too. I don't have to check to know about that.

- Sir, I didn't mean... - This man is causing you trouble.

And he shouldn't do it anymore. That's what you want, right?

That's why we've called him here.

We'll take care of that.

"For a while, he didn't trouble me anymore."

(Ritika) You should be the one keeping me san-guine.

For me, it is...

One more... it sounds forced.

You did study here in these parts, didn't you?

That I did. But I've never come across anyone using such words.

[Director] Alright. Just play the pilot again.

IG Vinayachandran asked me to meet you.

You already know the details.

Trust me... my life is a nightmare.

Despite all our complaints, he is out there

doing whatever he likes.

And she is the one to suffer! For a girl to live her life

without fearing anyone

who should we go to?

That's where you are right now, Sir.

From now on, we'll be there.

Thank you.

- Shall we leave then? - Ok.

- We'll keep in touch. - Sure.

Ma'am... my cousins are all die-hard fans of yours.

And not just them! Me too. May I?

Ya, sure.

He has no police case against him or any criminal background.

He was a topper in school and college.

And his medical records?

From the information we have, he is clean.

He's so good-looking!

But dangerous.

That's the way this is headed.

Isn't it just in movies that you know everything in one glance?

It's not a single glance. I work in forensic psychiatry.

I've seen a lot of people like him.

I suspect at some point there may have been an affair

between Milan and Ritika.

We've only heard her version.

We don't know what Milan has to say.

So Ritika is 'her' and Milan is always 'Milan.'

- It's always advantage male, isn't it? - Come...

- Hi! - Hi! Come.

Abhiram... my fiance.

- Hi. - Hi. - Ram.

I worried you'd be so engrossed in work that you forgot

- to eat. So I got food. - You worried for one

- but had to get food for all, didn't you? - No big deal!

Wow! The flat looks great.

- What do you do, Abhiram? - I have a hotel.

- So that's where this is from? - Yes.

- Which one? - It's in the North area.

Ok. And what's it called?

- Queen. - Oh. Got it.

The one on Patel Road, right?

Yes.

Come.

From what we know of Milan, I doubt he'll agree to this.

It may take some convincing and maybe some intimidation too.

Other than the ones we shortlisted, SP Harish said

we will have one more case to take on.

We'll get the details tomorrow. He said it's high profile

and highly confidential.

Wonder who it could be.

Are they engaged?

Yes. Last month.

- Love? - No. 100% arranged.

- Their families know each other. - Good. It's better that way.

- Why do you say that? - What? No... nothing.

Smells of a recent breakup in here.

Well... ok... that's what it is.

But he's not over the heartache yet.

She's also from the Department. So everyone in Kerala Police

- knows about it. - Please don't start!

I'm going to eat.

She got married last month.

Currently single but not ready to mingle.

First I want my company to be on steady footing.

- And what about you? - Nothing to say.

Didn't you take this apartment for office purposes?

Yes. But as I said, Tanvi and I will be living here as well.

In that case, at least while we are in discussions

isn't it better to avoid visitors?

(Abhiram) You guys didn't start eating yet?

We were just going to.

So how's it going? EYES?

Anyhow your very first case is a high profile one!

She's a fantastic actress! And she became a star overnight!

I think these are guys who have gone crazy on drugs.

Just the other day, in front of my hotel... you may have heard...

a young guy stopped a car and stabbed

the driver to death! Turns out

he was on chemicals too.

So for now it's just this one case or...

I should get going.

Carry on with your work.

I'll... just see him off and...

- We need to finish this too. We need to get back. - 5 minutes.

She's just out of college, isn't she?

I got that the minute she asked Ritika for a selfie.

She's a bit impulsive. But brilliant at her work.

- She's a rank holder. A gold medallist. - Really?

Sorry.

Make sure you don't have to say 'sorry' again.

What we discuss should stay between us.

It's not like you don't know that, Tanvi.

He comes home very rarely.

That too only if he is in Kochi on work.

He stays for a day or two and then returns to Bengaluru.

- You said Milan used to behave strangely on occasion. - Yes.

So why didn't you ever try to get a medical consultation?

To be able to do that we need to have

some sort of control over him.

He was 12 when our daughter was born.

She was a sickly child.

For about 5 or 6 years, we were fully engrossed in her treatment.

We had to put Milan

in boarding school in Bengaluru.

In those times, to be honest

we weren't able to pay much attention to him.

You didn't know about the police complaint against Milan?

- No. - And you neither, Aunty?

- Hi Milan. - See, this is bullshit

and this is illegal.

Stick that smirk up your arse.

Ok, say what you want to say, Milan.

You have no right to intrude into my personal life.

That's my privacy. And if there's anything...

that's between Ritika and I. We'll sort it out.

You have no damn business there!

But that's not the way Ritika feels.

That's why we are here.

Look, Milan. Don't think of us as your enemies.

We're here to help. Both you and Ritika.

That's why we set this meeting in such an unofficial place.

You have the right as well as freedom to not cooperate with us.

But if you cooperate

the police will drop the pending complaint against you.

There will be no action taken against you in that regard.

- And if I don't? - You will get arrested.

- So you're blackmailing me. - No.

You harass a woman. The law will come after you.

354 D. You can check with your lawyer.

And by cooperate, you mean

like that policeman told me over the phone yesterday

that I will be under your microscope.

- Full time. - More or less.

Hey you! Put that chair back up!

Words like 'privacy' and 'illegal'

don't just apply to one person.

We will file an FIR today itself.

The rest will follow after your 14 day remand. You can decide.

Call it blackmailing if you please.

Let's do this, Milan.

Come to the IG office tomorrow morning at 10.

We have a wing there.

And I repeat. This is to help you as well.

We're doing this together.

Chair!

Can you define the relationship between you and Ritika?

- Love. - Has Ritika said so?

Everything doesn't need to be said.

Why do you think Ritika filed a complaint against you?

That is some miscommunication.

She'll come back to me.

The love you have for Ritika, have you ever felt it

for anyone else before?

I've had some crushes. But this is my first

real relationship.

Have you ever felt like hurting Ritika?

No!

Have you ever been involved in any criminal activity?

- Including drugs? - No.

When you hurt someone emotionally

do you feel a sense of guilt?

I never hurt anyone without reason.

Have you felt fear of death?

If it's for the right reasons

then no.

What if it's for Ritika?

I've never really thought about it.

But ya... I love her.

Milan, you have to start medicines. Tonight itself.

We will mail you the prescription.

Once a week, you will have consultation, with Ayesha.

In person, or online, according to your convenience.

Once in two weeks, you'll have to do a blood test.

And upload the results in our system.

This is for us to ensure you are taking your medicines regularly.

The system will monitor that.

If there are any abnormal reactions from your side

the system will send us notifications.

Sometimes, even before you decide to act.

All your details are saved on it.

So, you could say, this is also one of us.

These pictures will be uploaded on EYES.

If we ever need to know about your presence on the net

or on social media, we will use these pictures to find a match.

With the help of AI.

Don't worry. We won't be using this

unless it's an emergency.

As you know, if you take this off,

we will get a notification immediately.

So don't ever take this off without letting us know first.

If you do, we will consider

that you have broken an important condition

in our contract.

In addition, Vidya and Tanvi

will contact you once in a while. Just like that.

[Ayesha] Delusional disorder.

Delusion of love. Milan believes

Ritika is in love with him.

In his case, we have to very careful.

So we're on!

Things were going so well from that point.

You remember, Praveen, once EYES was active,

Ritika had absolutely no issues from Milan.

In truth, I learned a lot from that team. Justin too.

It was such a needless splitting up.

I was also a reason for it.

And now see what happened. Within three months of the split-up

he has raised his head again.

- Speak of the devil! - So you heard.

Ritika had called.

She has registered a complaint. The enquiry has started.

Milan is not in Bengaluru or Kochi. And his phone

is out of range. Vimal Sir had come to take the details.

Shouldn't we

do something, Chechi?

When you said treat, I thought you had something big in mind.

And here we are with fritters and juice. Good enough!

I'd like to buy you a 5 course dinner, of course.

But to be honest, despite winning the case

that miser client hasn't paid us a penny!

And I am wondering how to pay the next EMI

- from setting up the office. - I could help.

Hold it for now. If I can't manage, I'll ask you.

Ok.

Going home any time soon?

Is your Dad ok with you now?

- Who's it? - Vidya.

- Oh! - Be right back! - Ok.

- Vidya? - Hi Ayesha.

Ayesha, we are on conference call.

- I'm here too. - Hi, Justin.

We couldn't get Tanvi on the line.

Ayesha, Milan has started up with his old tricks again.

The police are unable to trace him. And Ritika is freaking out.

She is depending on us even now.

So we were thinking

how about we give it a try?

Let's reactivate EYES?

You don't need my help for that.

But we started this together.

If we are going forward, we should do that also together.

It's an emergency situation.

As you yourself have said before

he is someone who could slip into a dangerous mood.

Shall I give the command?

Yes!

Generating token.

Inputting token.

The device is not working. Since there was no

contact from our end for months, he may have disposed of it.

He has uploaded blood test results till two weeks ago.

Not after that. As Justin said,

he must have figured out that the project is off.

That could spell danger. Match his photos on the net.

His social media is on privacy setting.

- We can't access it. - Nothing else?

Mostly... old ones.

Got him!

It's on a Facelink page called Baljeet Shukla.

Seems to be a North Indian village. Along with the locals

- Milan is also seen. - 2 hours back.

You get the location. I'll call Vimal Sir.

- Ok. - Hello?

- Hello? - Hello?

They seem to have left.

Yes. Seems so.

The other day there was a stalker killing here.

Guess you heard. A boy stabbed a girl in a coffee shop?

I heard.

You remember the shortlist of 12, we gave to the police?

To be put on a high alert list? He was one of them.

Oh!

Take care, Vidya.

You too.

Open the door!

Milan Shekhar?

Yes...

- Sir! - He'll be brought to Kochi tomorrow.

And... I need the EYES team back.

I'm not sure they will come back, Sir.

This was not the only case.

There are three other cases the team left behind, mid-way.

And it was going so well.

If they don't come back before either of those end up

as an acid attack or murder in the street

they will regret it. Tell them I said that.

Sir!

(Tina) The IG says he wants our team back.

Please come, Madam.

I said sorry, didn't I?

(Ritika) He kept sending me pictures of myself.

Candid photos that he took without my knowledge.

It was always the same giftwrap.

A gfitwrap made of a collage of pictures of me.

(A Christian devotional song playing)

- How much? - Sixty.

"Feast of Love Prayer Meeting. Registration"

Who are you?

- Come. - No. I will stand here.

I'm not here for the prayer. I'm here to meet someone.

- You were asked to come here? - Yes.

- Come inside anyway. - No. I have to go soon.

- Lunch time is nearly over. - See?

The prayer is nearly over. Don't stand outside, dear.

Come inside. Come on.

- What's your name? - Varsha.

- Full name? - Sreekumar... I mean Varsha Sreekumar.

Ok...

Come. We can go up front.

No, sister. I'll stand here. Let them finish.

Ok then.

"Praise the Lord!"

4 months ago, the Lord saw fit to bring into our midst

our dear brother Mohanan Chetan

who has come forward today to give a testimonial.

- Praise the Lord! - Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord!

I was a prisoner once.

I killed a man and was jailed for 8 years.

My wayward life made

my wife abandon our 7-year-old son and me

and run away with a driver.

But even that did not change me.

These hands that you see

were once covered in blood, my brothers!

When I came out of jail, I had no one.

Even my son did not want me.

I lost my mental as well as physical health.

I starved. And then one day

I was walking down this road

and I heard a voice.

"Jesus loves you!"

Praise the Lord!

From that day, the Lord has provided for me.

Protected me! Even as I stand here today

giving this testimonial

a miracle is unfolding before my eyes!

The girl loved by my son who did not want me,

is here right at this moment to see me.

She is here to ask if I am hungry.

- She has brought the money to ensure I am not! - Our Lord

that provides even for the crow!

Who can split rocks to quench our thirst!

- Our Lord! - Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord!

(Mohanan) How can I ever thank you enough, My Lord!

Praise the Lord!

- Welcome back! - You too!

- All good? - Yes. How about Tanu?

She has physiotherapy for an hour. She'll join us

for the evening meeting with the Commissioner. Till then

I have asked her to update some details.

Did you go to your hometown first or come straight here?

I was planning to. That's when I heard

we got Sajin Zachariah's appointment for today.

- So I cancelled that plan. - Were your parents upset?

Not at all. My Dad would only be happy.

How come?

You remember how we did a case study on stalker killings

in Kerala for the sake of this project?

- Yes. - Among the victims, there was a girl named Nargis.

Back in 2009.

That Nargis was my older sister.

Usually, doctors want their children

to follow in their footsteps.

But in my case, making me a doctor

and insisting that I become a psychiatrist

was not just because my father is a doctor.

It is because this incident happened in our family.

Not that I regret it.

Shall we go?

Why were you in North India for a week?

Sir, I am a freelance photographer.

I was taking pictures of North Indian villages

for a magazine.

In a place as remote as that

what were you photographing for a whole week?

I travelled from there to several places.

By bus and by train. And the police

found the tickets from my room.

You can check with them. It was just convenient.

That's why I stayed in that particular place.

We have information about

many illegal dealings that take place in those parts.

And these men are regularly linked to such dealings.

What was your business with them?

Sir, as a photographer I have to interact with locals.

Not just there but wherever I go.

- You made this design, right? - Yes.

In that case

- you are the one who sent this, aren't you? - No.

I have sent gifts to Ritika before. And I have admitted that.

But I am not the one who sent this. You can ask her.

I have cooperated 100% with their team.

They have my results.

But for the past month, you haven't done anything we asked.

There has been no updation on the software.

There was no follow up from your end for over two months.

I thought the project was off.

Milan...

Where were you planning to go from that village?

To Bengaluru. I had booked the tickets.

- You can see them on my phone. - Sir. May I?

Ok. And then?

Sir, I have a house there.

- We don't really have enough to hold him, Tina. - Sir, couldn't

he have clicked the puppy sometime before?

Maybe the last time he was here?

That's the confusing part.

Look. Ritika Syam bought this dog-collar only two months ago.

At that time he was in North India. That's confirmed.

But to think he was in a place known for illegal weapons trade

just to click pictures...

But we haven't recovered anything like that from his room or bag.

Now what we need to know is whether he had any help in this.

We'll find out. And Ritika Syam is acting like

she is in hysteria or something. We are worried

she will hold a press meet. Last time

it was on your team's guarantee that there was no case.

We stand by our promise, Sir. That's why our team

was instrumental in finding him.

I have to go. We have a meeting with the Commissoner at 3.

Our project restarts today.

- Ok. See you then. - See you.

(Praveen) See you later, Sir.

- Mishra is in town. About that marks scam case. - Oh!

Weren't you on duty at the Golf finals today?

Milan is being questioned here. I was asked to drop in.

As if you didn't have enough on your plate. It was such a relief

- when the project was stalled. - IG Vinayachandran personally

- asked me to be part of this, Praveen. - That was then.

You should inform him about your present condition. You're

not the only SI in town.

If I try to get out of additional responsibilities given to me,

will he ever trust me with anything again? It could even

- affect my chances for a promotion. - God forbid!

But you have other responsibilities too.

Every time you forget

I may not be able to bring it to you.

- Could we take a selfie, Sir? - Sure.

- Let me do it. - Ok.

- Thank You, Sir. - Thank you.

So you have relocated here, Ayesha?

I guess you could say that.

I'll mostly be here. But I have online consultations too.

And I will have to go to Bengaluru now and then. - I see.

- Is your father well? - Yes.

Is he practicing now? I heard he stopped for a while.

He has started again. At home itself.

Is he still under treatment or...?

No. Now he is ok.

- And you are based here, Vidya? - Yes.

I'm sorry... just trying to recollect.

- You have a software company, don't you? - Yes.

Basically software solutions for psychiatrists.

I'm not sure if you remember but I'm a psychologist.

Right, right! You mentioned it last time.

Good... I mean, it's great, man!

Actually, in the fields of psychiatry and psychology

there should be more women. We men can

never get that kind of sensitivity.

One second.

These are for you. When I heard you were coming

I ordered them from UK for you. It's not available in India.

They don't touch upon Freud at all!

- He is completely outdated, isn't he? - I wouldn't say

'completely', Sir. New studies and schools come up all the time.

When can we get your psychiatric evaluation done?

We couldn't do it last time. Before we got around to it

our team had to take a break.

This books says, after an evaluation

a person's answers can be twisted in any direction

by the psychiatrist.

If you call it madness, then the person is deemed mad.

If he likes sunset over sunrise, you can term it depression.

The minute I got into anti-corruption, I knew that

if I went after the darlings of the higher ups,

there would be cheap moves like this.

They can't say anything else to destroy me. So just say

'the Collector has mental issues!'

Insult at its best!

We have a meeting with the Commissioner at 3.

You have my PA's number. Call him and fix the time and date.

I hope at least that will be as per my convenience.

Yes, Sir.

Thank you, Sir.

If you were going to be so late, why didn't you say so, Justin?

I would've taken a taxi.

It's 2.55 already.

The meeting will be halfway done by the time we get there.

Ayesha Di has been calling continuously.

Varsha wanteded to meet urgently.

I don't think that case is really at an end.

The Commissioner has called us today with regard to that case.

He mentioned as much to Tina Chechi.

But for our team, isn't that a closed case?

- What more does he want to know about it? - What he really wants

to know is why the EYES team dropped out midway.

It was after all to do with Hemant and Varsha's case.

- Here's your bill. - Ok.

- Cheta, you can come here. - Want a bag? - Yes.

(Varsha) - That will be 150. - He is here again, Chechi.

Yes. It's the 4th day now. And all he buys is a chocolate.

Look, what do you really want?

- Phone number. - What?

- Your phone number, Varsha. - What for?

What's a phone number for? To talk! What else?

Listen. Please don't bother me. Just leave.

- In that case I'll come again tomorrow. - I'll complain.

What about? Did I trouble you in any way?

I come. I buy a chocolate. And I leave.

- Varsha! All ok? - Yes. All ok.

Do you know how many supermarkets there are in Kochi?

And how many girls work in all of them?

If I am not going to any of them and instead

came here to ask for your number

don't you think there is some seriousness to it?

Forget the other shop girls. There is something in you

that I've not seen in any other girl. That's why I wanted to say

I...I love you.

- What was he going on about? - Nothing.

Oh! So you won't tell me, is it?

No... It's not that. He said... he likes me.

- What? Really? - Yes.

- And he just said it out loud? - Yes. - Oh!

He's quite the hero then!

Not bad to look at either! That's a real man!

Unlike some others here who stare all day at you

but would never have the guts to say anything.

Need a cover for that?

"This is my number"

- Is this going to be a mess? - Do you like him or not?

First tell me that.

If you ask me like that... I don't really

- know anything about him. - You don't dislike him, do you?

But to say I don't like him...

- I don't know enough for that either! - What's the issue then?

- You could at least find out what he wants to say. - True.

- You're right. - Yes!

What can happen just by giving him my number, right?

Yes! Go ahead and send it!

- Ok then! - Ok.

- Oh! So this is where you were! - Oh no!

Oh no!

- What? - Nothing. Want some chocolate?

Why are you holding both like that?

- It's... nothing. - When you bite don't get them mixed up. - Ok.

The D4 people celebrated their son's birthday today.

They've sent cake. Come and have it.

Ok.

You don't have it, please! Your sugar level was high yesterday.

- Hello? (Hemant) - Doesn't the person in that photo

- look like you? - Huh?

- Who is this? - My Mom's Mom.

My grandmother.

I haven't seen her in that look.

But this photo was there at home. And every time I see it

- it reminds me of you. - Your grandmother reminds you of me?

Yes! Isn't she beautiful?

- Know something? - What?

I really like you so much...

(Mother) - Varsha! - Hmm...

- My mother is calling me. - Oh...

Will you call me back?

Yes.

What are you doing there, girl? - I'll be right there, Mom!

(Ayesha) The relationship was progressing smoothly over calls,

messages and meetings in the beginning.

Except for some minor lover's tiffs

nothing serious happened at that stage.

Varsha was very excited with the attention that she was getting.

Varsha... Varsha... just a second! Please take my place.

- I need to use the bathroom. - But I... - It's urgent!

- I am late already!- Just for a second. Come on! - Let me go!

- Check this out, please. She will help you. - This guy!

Customer waiting! Come on!

- Come back quick. - Ok, ok!

Hey! Bibin!

- Come on! - Ya... Oh no! Just a second more.

- Hey! Come on! Please! - Just a second. It's urgent.

Need a cover for that?

Here's the balance.

Yes. Bill that too.

- Hey! - Let's go.

Hey! You can't leave a customer at the counter!

- Just because some guy... - Bibin... it's...

Oh God!

(Salesgirl) Bibin! Hey! Someone get water!

(Hemant) Please answer my call, Varsha.

Or at least... message me.

This... is... How long are you going to be silent?

Varsha... sorry!

I told you... it just happened... It won't...

I nearly lost my job, you know!

I had to beg Bibin

to not file a police case.

The shop suffered 3000 Rupees worth of losses!

They will take that out of my salary.

I will pay them for the loss.

I can pay double if they want.

And I couldn't care less if that moron files a case.

There you go again!

Hemant... where did you even learn to beat someone up like that?

- Or is this how you really are? - So that's what bothers you?

- Not what he did? - But for that you beat someone up like that?

Varsha... I was... in that moment...

Varsha, there is something you should understand about me.

Despite my parents being alive I grew up without them.

It's because of my grandparents that I at least went to school.

When I was in high school, they died too.

I had no one... to tell me... how to behave.

Sometimes I get angry...

and sometimes I lose control over myself.

You are the one filling in for everyone that I did not have.

At least now... I want a good life.

You're the only person who can give me that.

And when that person stops talking to me...

- I...I don't know what to do. - Listen...

I got scared... that's why...

I don't like any other guy talking to you in that way.

I don't like anyone to treat you that way.

You are... mine alone!

I won't let any other guy even touch you!

I'm there for you. I'm there for you... ok?

May we come in, Sir?

- Good evening, Sir. - Who are you?

Sir, they are part of the team.

But the meeting with the team started at 3.

- Sorry, Sir. - Sorry, Sir. - Go and stand there.

Sir.

What happened to your leg?

I...had... an accident.

Ok. You may sit there.

- Ya. - Sir...

So as I was saying, although that incident intially

disturbed Varsha, pretty soon

things got back to normal.

Hi!

Let's go.

- Hey! No! - Hey...

Can you ask him to stop? Hey! Please stop the car.

Tanu!

- What is it? - Isn't that Hemant? - Yes.

How long has he been working for you, Abhiram?

Around three years. Why?

He is one of the men under our surveillance, Abhiram!

He's a stalker! He is under

medication prescribed by us.

He's a classic example of a sociopath!

We have the diagnosis.

What he has on on his wrist is a tracking device!

He attacked a young woman several times!

Ok, ok, ok! See, he had informed me

that the police have their eyes on him. That's no secret.

But I did not know it was your team.

Anyway, let's hold that for a minute. Abhiram?

What happened to 'Ram'? You just called me Abhiram, Tanu.

He's just a driver. You need not pay any attention to him.

You are safe with me! He won't do anything to you.

- I can look after my own safety. - You guys are doing your job

and he is doing his. You can just ignore him.

Let him do his job. But it shouldn't be with you...

I know his girlfriend. That girl from the supermarket, right?

For a long time, she flirted and roamed around with him

and when she had enough, she dumped him.

And he reacted!

For that, you are calling him a sociopath?

That's the way any man would react.

Listen! It's my birthday!

Don't spoil it over a mere driver.

Everyone is waiting for us at the hotel.

- Come. - Send him away.

You can drive yourself.

And I shouldn't see him with you again.

He's a fantastic worker.

Maybe he is impulsive. That's just his age.

But for that reason, just because you people have some notion

about him, I am not bloody well going to fire him.

And also, that commanding tone you just had?

Never use that with me.

Tanu!

(Ayesha) That Hemant was extremely sensitive

was getting clearer to Varsha through many incidents.

He was quick-tempered and quick to get upset.

And she was concerned about it to an extent.

But she thought of it all as part of the romance

and tried to ignore it. But then...

something happened which she just couldn't ignore.

- Uh... Is this Sreevalsam house? - Yes...

- It is. - So... Sreekala...?

- That's me. - Oh...

- May I sit down? - Oh..ok.

I am here with Brother Saju's prayer group.

This morning, during our prayers

like a sudden flash, your name and house name

came into my mind.

I asked around and saw that it was close by.

So I thought I would come over and meet you and maybe pray.

Oh! But we are Hindus.

So was I! But when I understood the truth,

I joined them.

- Who is this? - He is from a prayer group nearby.

- Your daughter? - Yes.

I...was also about to leave for work.

I have seen this girl somewhere.

- Where is she studying? - She works in a supermarket.

If your husband is inside, can you ask him to come here?

- No, he is dead. - Oh...

I knew there was a reason that God brought your name

to my mind and made me come to this house.

- What is that? - Now I know

where I have seen this girl. On my son's phone.

You know the photo that comes up when a phone is turned on?

She is with him in that picture.

Did you daughter say anything to you about this?

No.

From what I've seen in that photo

I think they are in a relationship.

I shouldn't be saying this about my own son.

But he is not someone you can entrust a girl to.

- I think you got the wrong person. - Maybe.

I hope I'm wrong. That's what I am wishing right now.

But if I am right, tell your daughter

to escape as soon as she can! He is a goon!

He beats up people for money. Chops off arms and legs.

Ask anyone in those parts.

In such a situation,

I should've been here asking for your daughter's hand for him.

But... I am not eligible to do so.

- But brother, are you sure... - My wife left me

and ran away with someone else.

I cannot really blame her for that.

I am older than your husband would've been. So I earnestly

want to tell you this.

Your daughter shouldn't suffer my wife's fate.

My dear Lord! What are You

putting me through?

The all-knowing Lord Who shows us what we need to see!

I accept this ordeal you are giving me and praise you!

Bless this house and those who dwell in it.

Please give them the grace to see your miracles and

trust in you! Praise the Lord!

- Why aren't you answering my calls? - I...

Hemant... let's end this here.

- Let's not meet again. - What?

Please don't get angry or make a scene.

I know what your real job is.

- What job? - I asked many people before saying this to you.

And my mother also knows everything now. She told me

- never to talk to you again. - So you live by Mom's rules?

That is exactly how I live my life.

I won't do anything against her wishes. We only have each other.

Did you ask her before loving me and promising to marry me?

- What did you tell me your job was then? - I'm a driver.

I stand by what I said. I'm not changing anything.

But then you should also have told me how many police cases

- there are against you! - Varsha, what're you...

Listen! I just wanted to tell you this in person.

I am going to block you from my phone.

Oh!

You're going to block me? We'll see about that!

I know what this is about. You got a proposal from someone rich!

So you made it about my job. And now I'm just a goon.

When did I call you a goon?

It slipped out of your own mouth, didn't it?

- That's it, Hemant. Let's part as friends. - What?

How easy it is for you to talk about parting!

So that's all I meant to you?

My life is important to me.

I don't want a person like you in it.

- I can't even imagine that! - Come with me. Let's talk.

No! So many times you have taken me away like this

and I fell for it every time!

It's not going to happen anymore, Hemant. Just let me go, please!

- Just come, let me... - I said leave me alone!

You are my girl.

And you will always be my girl.

- Should we...? - No. Don't!

(Hemant)- Varsha! - He says he won't leave till he sees you.

Varsha! Come on! Open the door!

Shall I call Manoj from next door?

- Varsha! - No!

He might just kill Manoj!

- When he is angry, he is insane! - I just want to see you!

But... how long can we...

Just... open this door! Varsha!

- Varsha I just want to see you... to talk... - Don't open!

- Don't open the door! - I won't.

Varsha, I won't come inside.

Please open. I just want to say something to you.

Hemant... whatever you want to say just say it from there.

- I will listen. - I can't say it like that.

- I need to see you. - You can't.

If you want to say something, say it and leave.

If you want to talk, come back in the morning.

I can't hold on that long.

- Are you going to open the door or not? - No.

I won't open. You will not see me.

If you don't leave, I'll call the police.

I have the number ready on my phone.

If you don't go, I'll dial it right now.

Oh no!

- Go to work now. - Ok. - We will make sure

- he doesn't trouble you. - Ok. - Got my number?

Yes, Sir. Thank you.

Ok.

IG Vinayachandran called, didn't he?

Yes, he did. He asked for a list of stalking cases.

He said something about joining hands with psychiatrists...

- Yes. It is a good attempt, Sir. - I see.

- I'm on that team too. - Oh. - These cases have been going up.

What can we really do? At most we can issue a warning.

Or remand them to custody for 14 days.

That may be enough to set some of them right. But the majority

will not stop with that. Of course,

you know all this better than me.

Take that girl who just left. It is 3 days since she went to work.

Because she's scared. Who knows when these guys

will do something! And there are so many more like her!

How many more who won't complain because of fear!

You seem to be very emotional about this.

You are right, Sir. I grew up

with a mother who was like them.

So I know.

IG Vinayachandran must have told you.

We are going to give this a try.

So if I cooperate with you

there won't be any case against me?

That's not what we said. Pending cases will remain.

We just won't take action on them for the time being.

If you don't cooperate, policemen will be waiting when you go home.

In that case, let's proceed that way.

With all these pending cases, if I stayed out of jail till now

I am sure I can manage in future too.

I have connections too. I'll be home in half an hour.

You can inform your people who are coming to pick me up.

Syam. I need to speak to the IG, please. It's urgent.

Good morning, Sir. It's Tina.

Sir, we met that man called Hemant.

But he says he will not cooperate with EYES.

Yes, Sir. He says he has no problem going forward

with the cases against him.

Sir, he has 4 pending cases, not including

assaulting the girl and setting her scooter on fire.

354, 323, 341.

And burning the scooter was part of intruding into her home.

447, 436.

Yes, we can also look at charging him with attempted murder, Sir.

Yes. Also

he says he has connections.

We'll get details of that too. If he has connections as he says

we should investigate that too!

Yes, we can look into older cases as well.

He will be locked up for 90 days for sure. And he'll remain there.

Ok. Thank you, Sir.

You can go. You won't have to go all the way home though.

Go on.

Did the IG say what our next step should be?

Who spoke to the IG?

You really think an SI can call up the IG

- and talk to him like that? Think again! - Huh?

If I agree to what you say, when should I start?

I have to know that before I can take a final decision.

Do you lie for your own ends?

Yes.

"I swear I'll say lies and nothing but lies!"

Do you want me to swear on something?

After you behave badly with someone

- do you regret it? - Of course!

If I was a Christian I would go straight to confession!

Do you take unnecessary risks?

Was it a risk, what I just did?

Not cooperating. MSE incomplete.

So what next?

Rorschach.

What is that? A dead bat?

Like someone killed a mosquito

against a car window.

Two women... fighting over something.

An island... is it?

Yes, it's an island.

How can I say it out loud

in a room with two women?

What even is the proper word for it?

We should ask Varsha to unblock Hemant.

Can we trust him so soon?

I don't.

It's just a part of watching him.

If he calls her, the system will notify us.

So... how does this Rorschach stuff work?

What is this?

That is...

a bat? Didn't he say the same?

Hemant said it was a dead bat.

- Is that a rocket? - Rocket?

What angle are you looking at?

These... are circus clowns, aren't they?

- Right? - You sure have an ego on you, Madam!

It's not me saying that!

So... what about me?

You have difficulty maintaining personal relationships.

You are just saying that because you know about my breakup.

"If you do not see a human figure, you have problems

with your interpersonal relationships."

What you see in those images can change depending on

your background and the mood you are in at that moment.

Though we make some broad assumptions based on it,

as an indicator of someone's mental health

only a trained practitioner can give an opinion.

It's not meant to be used as we are doing right now.

Anyway, you are basically normal, Justin.

So don't worry.

So what about that card? Why did he see it that way?

Father card. To most people

it seems like a giant or a huge person wearing a coat.

A strong father figure.

But Hemant saw it as a human penis.

Which means his relationship with his father is pretty bad.

Hemant is a sociopath with genetic component.

That is exactly what EYES is also saying.

Based on the details we feed into it

the software's diagnosis is also the same.

That he has a potential to be violent

is something the system has already predicted.

May try to even murder the victim.

Milan is like a volcano that steams

and might erupt some day.

But in Hemant's case, it could happen any moment.

With the medication and counselling we give him

let's hope he will be ok.

But... let's also be prepared.

- Hey Justin... listen... - Yes, Sir?

You know the boy in the complaint filed by Varsha? Yes, Hemant.

This morning, from a petrol pump in Maradu

he bought petrol in a can.

He said it was for his car.

In the evening he asked to buy more in the same way.

When they said they couldn't do that, it led to a scuffle.

The pump operator called us.

Since petrol was involved, I thought you should know about it.

- Be cautious. Ok? - Ok.

Accept the call and put it on speaker.

(Justin) Just a second, please.

You can call them later.

- Hello? - We are connecting the call. Be silent.

Answer it.

(Hemant) Hello? Varsha...

- Hello... - Hey! Varsha...

What is past is past...

From today, we are starting a new life

together... Ok?

Hey... and... that time when I hit you...

You are my wife, aren't you? You are mine!

Don't I have the right?

Who else do I have to fight with and love?

You know what, honey?

To hell with rituals and celebrations.

Let's just get married.

Let's just live together.

And... you don't have to go to work anymore.

We can bring your mother here too.

It will be just us. And our life.

No ba*** can ever interfere in it again.

I want to talk to your mother. I want to apologise.

I'm coming there now.

BP is high. Heartbeats are high.

He is planning something.

Sir... please send our people to the address I sent.

I am here. Send two people.

In plain clothes. Yes.

And I will give you the number of a bike.

Yes, he may have started from there already.

If they see him on the way, let them take him into custody.

Immediately.

It's a video call.

- Answer it. And make sure we are not seen.

You dare to cut my call?

You will never get to live in peace, if you ditch me.

I will never allow that to happen.

Right this second, I need to know.

Are you going to come with me or not?

Open your mouth and speak!

Huh? Don't you know how much I love you?

That is not enough for you?

- ...can't live... - No, no, no!

- Don't call! Don't call! - Cut the call!

You... you have... someone else there, don't you?

Who is that? Who is the ba*** with you over there?

Show me! I said show me!

So you were just stringing me along all this while?

You wh***!

So that is why you suddenly didn't want me anymore.

You had someone else! I will...

I'll show you what I can do, alright?

I'll show you what I can do!

That... was a mistake we made.

Or rather... a mistake our system made.

The suicidal tendency in Hemant

was not detected by us or the system.

If we had detected it,

I would have prescribed treatment and counselling accordingly.

So when Hemant died, the team decided to give up?

It affected all of our spirits.

I did tell them it was silly to call off the project

based on this one incident. This is all part of the game.

Anyway... thanks to Milan...

Right? After all

he is the reason behind your rejoining.

What happened with Hemant... put it behind and move on!

- If you have doubts about the system... -No, Sir.

Such a mistake won't happen again. I'm looking into it.

Ok.

Including Milan, you have three cases before you.

And you are needed for all three.

But whatever you do

- be punctual! - Sir!

- Need help? - No! It's ok.

- Ayesha... - Yes?

I wish you hadn't said it was the software's mistake.

That's like shrugging off EYES.

For you it might be a lifeless thing.

But to me, it's a living breathing being.

It's true... an error happened. But I

- don't know how that happened. Maybe... - Vidya...

- Are you going to the flat? - No.

I'm going to see Vidya's office.

- Are you coming with us, Tanu? - No.

- I would like to lie down. Could you drop me home? - Sure.

You are not the person we knew three months ago, Tanvi. At all!

- It's like she suddenly grew all mature, right? - Yes!

All of you used to complain that I had no maturity.

According to you, it was my phone call to Justin

that distracted Hemant and made him do what he did.

And the fact that he was Abhiram's driver

was also somehow my fault.

So, going forward, its another Tanvi.

- Shall we? - Ok.

Can I ask you something?

That accident you had...

How did that happen?

Was Abhiram... involved in some way?

- Thanks. - Ok.

Tanu... it's just me.

I just want to see you.

I just dropped in because I was passing this way.

Tanu, please! What could happen by opening the door?

Tanu... come on!

Tanvi... it's Justin.

Open the door.

I...

What on earth is his...

I mean, an overdraft would take care of a lot of my problems.

It's just a matter of time, Sir.

It is because they trust the expertise of the software

that the Police Department is supporting us.

EYES had a setback at one point but now we're back.

The loan repayment has lapsed only for two months.

Yes, I will pay it within one week.

I did not claim we were a multicrore business, Sir.

But many such companies also started out

from car sheds and store rooms.

See... it's true I asked for an overdraft.

If you can't do it, just say so. If loan recovery is the issue

send a notice. You don't have to get personal! D'you understand?

This is not about non-payment of this month's salary or the last.

But I don't even see a chance of getting paid for before that.

I'm putting in my papers.

She won't do anything.

Anyhow... we are now pretty sure that Milan

did not click the picture of the dog.

He hasn't been to Kerala since the date you said

you bought this collar.

Sometimes you know how celebrities' homes and cars

and even their pets become popular on social media.

We are also looking into the possibility that he took

something like that and photoshopped it.

No. That's the strange thing.

Because... ever since this guy started troubling me

I never post anything related to my personal life

on social media.

Also I've told my friends and family

not to share anything like that.

In truth, because of the fear of this guy

I don't even attend promotions for my own movies these days.

For the past two months you've not been here at all?

No. I was working in two movies back to back.

One was abroad and one was out of state.

So during that time, the only person here, as you said,

is that lady who looks after the flat?

- Yes. - Is she here now? - Yes, she is.

But she has just a basic phone, Sir.

All she can do on it, is make calls.

But we'd like to meet her anyway.

- Syamala... - Is she inside?

- Yes. - We will go and meet her. You may sit here, Madam.

- Where are you from, Syamala? - Alappuzha.

I used to work with a magistrate there

- as office assistant. - Oh, really? - Yes.

So you never visited home at all in the past two months?

No, Sir. My son is in Dubai with his wife.

- So there's no one at home. - Anyone came to meet you here?

No, no. No one even knows I work here.

- Why? Are you in hiding or something? - Oh, no, Sir.

All my relatives have nice office jobs.

I am the only one taking care of someone's house... so I don't...

I want you to tell me the details

of every visitor here in the last two months.

Of course we have the cctv and flat register. But still...

No one visited, Sir. No.

When Madam isn't here, no one comes.

It needn't be someone who came to visit Madam.

It could be anyone who rang the calling bell during this time.

Other than the milk and newspaper delivery persons.

No one, really...

Plumber? Electrician? The security guard?

During this time, none of them have come here.

Then... one time, there was a boy who came to deliver food.

He had the wrong flat number.

- He came into the flat? - No. He left right away.

Then... yes... there was a girl.

She came asking for the previous owner of this flat.

I said I knew nothing about him.

But she did come into the flat.

- What for? - She asked for some water.

- So I told her to come in. - And?

She drank the water and left.

You came into the kitchen to get water?

- Yes. - Where was she at that time?

- In the sitting room. - And the puppy?

In the sitting room itself.

I called them both several times.

- But I couldn't get either of them. - Ok.

We will go there in person.

I thought Milan's case was closed.

And then comes the new gift and complications.

And even in Hemant's case, I have some...

It's time you let go of your guilt over that.

It has nothing to do with you.

I am facing a lot of pressure and blame from all around.

Because I called off the wedding, my relatives

behave as though I have committed some crime.

You know what? Sometimes I wonder

what is wrong with being alone?

Our life, our rules!

No one should have the right to control us!

For the time being, why don't you give Vidya a call?

Remind her that we are supposed to meet Shobhitha today.

Doesn't Vidya already know that? Why are we

behaving like her secretaries and reminding her about stuff?

It will only get better from here.

Oh! Pep talk!

During the meeting, don't do your usual

- thing of blurting stuff out. - What do you mean?

I mean, don't make comments that might disturb him.

Shouldn't we? Disturb them, I mean. In that moment when they

lose their balance is when we get to see their real selves.

That's what the textbooks say. It's not my opinion.

All theories may not be practical in every situation.

The textbooks say that too.

- Let me go make that call. - You can call from here.

No... that's fine.

- Good afternoon! - Sir! - No, no! Sit, sit.

- It's ok, Sir. - When is your meeting?

- It was supposed to be at 1.30. - I see. It's 2 already.

He made me wait for about 20 minutes too.

Ba***! During the evaluation, if he makes any kind of protest

or threat, report it immediately.

Many people including the CM have a special interest in this case.

Ever heard of mental crucifixion? That's what he did to his wife.

- Anyway... I'll ask Vidya for the details later. - Ok.

Tina!

("Student protest leads to lathi charge")

- That's a nasty cut. - Aww! Feel sorry for me?

They'll neither study nor let others do so!

Please let me take a cane to their backsides, Sir!

- I don't mind going to Court over that! - Hold that for now!

Why on earth were you at the strike today?

- Why do you ask that? - Praveen was so tense! He called me

because he couldn't get you on the line.

So when is the treat?

Madam! I just heard the news from Rajan Sir.

And you came along with us for the lathi charge?

Oh no! Rajan Sir knows? That means the whole world knows!

- Congratulations, Madam! - Call Praveen right now.

The way he was talking, I think you're going on leave right away!

- Fat chance! - Smitha, get their details. - Ok, Sir.

Hello, Ayesha.

No... it's nothing. I am back at the station.

No... really! The TV people are exaggerating.

Hold on a second, please. Sir...

You are supposed to inform us when you are in this condition.

Anything could have happened there! It's no laughing matter!

- Smitha! - Sir.

- Take Tina to the hospital. - Ok, Sir!

- But, Sir, I... - You can go home from there.

- Take rest for the day. - There's no need, Sir.

- There's so much going on here right now. - Tomorrow, when

you come back, get sweets for everyone!

- When's the due date? - December.

So it's the first trimester and you decided to go beat up kids?

- Sir! - Yes.

- Smitha... hospital! - Ok, Sir!

- Madam, just a second. I'll be right back. - Ok.

Ayesha... sorry... it's just...

So where's the party?

- Wherever you want. - That's a great news, Tina.

- What is it? - Tina is pregnant. - What?

Hello? I just saw you on TV!

And when did all this happen? Super!

- So this evening, let's drink for junior Tina! - Ayesha.

- Yes? - You can go in. - They've called us in.

We are off into the lion's den.

- Ok. Call when you're out. - Ok.

That's all, Sir. I have mailed you the list of medicines.

Every two weeks, please upload the blood test results

in the software.

- What is that for, exactly? - It is for us to make sure

you are taking the medicines.

And if I don't have them? What happens?

You studied medicine yourself, Sir.

- It will help you. - Maybe.

But that was not my question.

Our orders are to report it to the IG.

He will forward it to the Chief Secretary.

That's a lot of big names all set to scare me.

I didn't specialise in psychiatry. So allow me to ask.

Out of academic interest.

Without the help of any medicine, I've been managing

an entire district in a pretty capable manner.

What is your explanation for that?

Hitler was a great leader, Sir.

Hitler had narcissistic personality disorder.

A love for oneself.

It is on the basis of my wife's complaint that you

are doing all this including having an evaluation for me?

Are you aware Shobhitha is in a wellness centre right now?

I mean... a mental wellness centre.

- We are aware, Sir.

When someone files a complaint against someone else

won't the other person have a story to tell as well?

The other side of the story.

Or is it that women only accept a woman's version as the truth?

Please go ahead, Sir.

Shobhitha's father... I mean

the present ruling party president...

Of course you know. Practically, he is SP Harish's boss.

That means your boss too.

At that time he was the leader of the opposition.

And the Thrissur MLA. I was the MD of KSFE.

When this marriage proposal came up, it wasn't

because of his position that I said yes.

If that's what I was after, there were other proposals

that would have offered me better opportunities.

It was... just that...

when I met Shobhitha... I liked her.

Why the hurry to get you married before completing your Masters?

And... you're too young.

- It's because my Dad is scared of me. - What?

There was a member of Dad's party...

with whom I had a relationship.

The minute he came to know, Dad got him a job

and packed him off to the Gulf.

He too seized the chance

and left without a second thought.

- Are you serious? - 100%.

I think it's to ensure that episode stays a secret

or to ensure that I won't repeat something like that

that Dad quickly decided to get me married off.

So what should I do now? Like in movies, do you want me to say

'I don't want this wedding' and be a hero for you?

- Oh no! - I don't mind!

Actually, other than a few random crushes

I've never had a serious relationship.

So the heartache and pains of parting stuff

- to be frank, I don't know how it works. - I have no such pain.

To be honest, now I think that was also just a crush.

Both for me and him.

I guess that's why he didn't put up a fight

- and just went on his way.

Is this the first marriage proposal you've had?

No. Last month there was one.

The cliche - American software engineer.

He gave me a whole list of his ex-girlfriends.

But when I told him about mine he wanted to know

how intimate we had been physically.

I said... yes, we've held hands...

hugged... kissed...

And then he asked, 'but you're a virgin, right?'

It was a yes from their side.

I was the one to say no.

See Sajin... my Dad really likes you.

The way you do things... your ethics and all of that.

Whether he has any kind of political interest

in this proposal, I am not sure.

But, to be honest, I myself have been following you.

And you have been to our college once.

I was the General Secretary at that time.

One second.

See.

- Oh! Yeah! - That day my friend said

you are the perfect kind of man to marry.

If you say yes to this proposal, she'll be the first one I call.

She might just die of jealousy!

Suppose I ask you to quit your studies

- after marriage? - Bye, bye!

See you... have a good life!

Your parents and sister will be there for the engagement,

- won't they? - Of course. It's just that

with Dad being in hospital, only Uncle could come today.

They should surely be there for the engagement.

How can we fix things without meeting them?

If your mother finds it difficult to walk

we can hold the function there. What do you say, Tomy?

We still have two weeks to iron out the details, Sir.

Sir? Really?

Everyone here calls me Cheriachan. You can, too.

'Sir' went out the window from yesterday.

He is confused about what to do after the next election.

- Oh? - Calling the CM 'Dad'

might amount to a protocol issue.

- Ok then. - See you.

Sorry, sorry! I am late!

- I got held up, Cheriachan. - I see.

- Hi. Harish. - Sajin.

- He's the ASP. - Oh!

Harish is an insider in this family.

He's always at the forefront for everything here!

- Have you eaten? - No. I want to.

Hope you have saved something for me, Leena Chechi.

Of course! Everything is ready for you. Be assured.

As long as you have.

- Alright then. We will make a move now. - Ok.

- Alright then. - Sajin... - Yes?

- I'll come meet you. - Any specific reason?

Not at all. Just for a drink.

- I don't drink. - Oh...

Dinner then?

Shobhitha... a minute, please.

(Mother) Don't take off with him already!

I had thought our first meeting

would be a private affair.

I wouldn't mind if it was just family members.

But here we have an MLA, a party member

an ASP...I feel like I am in an official meeting!

Dad always has these people around him.

And Harish, as Dad said,

is just like a relative to us.

Maybe, Shobhitha. But to me, he is a subordinate.

For someone like that to be using this connection

to get pally and ask me out for a drink...

I'm not comfortable with that. That will lead to

taking other liberties in future.

Hey... no offence, alright? And don't tell anyone I said this.

At least for the engagement,

please convince your Dad to keep it private.

- Ok... sure. - We're good. Right?

No worries, Sajin. Actually you're right.

- Please say hi to that friend in the photo. - Ok.

- Hi... I would like to have these curls straightened - Sure, Ma'am.

- Sir, Cyriac Sir's daughter is here. - Not all of it..just...

- the edges. - Shobhitha! - Hi!

- Is this your regular salon? - For the past two months.

It was a strong recommendation from her. She is the one

who decides these things for me.

- Remember? Hannah. - Hi. - Of course!

Why would someone with clear skin like you need a facial?

- Do it regularly? - Once a month.

And only I am allowed to do it.

- Are you here for a facial as well? - I did it yesterday.

But she suggested I get these curls straightened.

But why? It looks good.

Not the full hair. Just this part.

I got that. But it looks so nice this way.

Just see her once that way.

When she does it for college, all the guys stand and gawk.

If you don't like it, she doesn't have to do it again.

But tomorrow, she should be at her best.

There's no question about it!

That's what I am saying too. Leave it the way it is.

- There's no question about it. - Sir, you just don't know

styles and trends right now.

Maybe so. I have my tastes. And you have yours, Hannah.

So you go ahead. I have a meeting at 3.

Hey! You'll come for the wedding tomorrow, won't you?

Stop! Shobhitha!

What happened? You didn't get it done?

I'll wait in the car.

- Hari...- Sir? - Step out for a minute, please. - Ok.

Come.

Hey! What happened?

Shobhitha... I'm so sorry!

I just said what I felt.

It's not a big thing.

If you felt like doing it, you should have! Why think so much

- about it? - I came all this way because I felt like doing it.

Exactly! Just because I said so you shouldn't...

Your 'just because' is not as simple as you make it sound.

When the person I want the most to be paying attention to me

as a woman, physically and emotionally,

says something like that, you really think

I can go ahead and do it happily as you say, Sajin?

- Shobhitha, seriously...- Later, whoever compliments me

do you think it will mean anything to me?

Again... I'm sorry...

Where is the narcissism in this?

Asking for personal and professional ties to be separate?

Or giving a comment about my wife-to-be's looks?

These are incidents she always hypes up against me.

In her version, I am a villain. That's how it is, right?

Can you put aside the abnormal political correctness

and view this as things that happen in a normal family?

In the most objective manner?

Then you might understand that you are interpreting

a normal person's sadness over the failure of his marriage

as criminal behaviour and putting it under a scanner.

We are listening, Sir.

- This is Shanoj... from today he will be your chauffeur. - Hi.

This is Vinitha. She joined only the day before.

- I guess we could call her a trainee. - Yes. Hi, Ma'am.

And this is Raji Chechi.

She has been taking care of my food for the past three months.

- Mini does the cleaning. - Hello!

So, from today, I am quitting the post.

All household instructions will now come from here.

We were there for the wedding.

Cyriac Sir won the election from our constituency.

- Is there more? - No, Sir. It's done.

Let us get fresh first. And then she'll give you the dinner menu.

- Ok. - Come.

Oh! The last two days... it was terrible!

Smaller than your house, right, Shobhitha?

Hey! Why do we need so many on the staff?

Cook and cleaning help, I can understand.

But who is this Vinitha?

She can be of general help. Like if you need to send mail or

run errands or something.

What for? It's like

you have appointed a secretary for me.

And why do I need a driver?

I am an expert driver.

- It's ok. - How long are all these people around everyday?

Mini leaves early. The rest after I get back from work.

I think I'm going to suffocate!

Your final exams are coming up. All of this is so that

you don't have to be distracted by anything else.

Also, you have to secure one of the top three ranks.

Nothing less is acceptable in this house!

So, full focus on studies.

It's two days since the wedding.

We haven't focused on what we really should.

And no one here is talking about that.

Really?

Why? You don't want to?

First time... I've heard it takes a few days for it get in sync.

But it was... so...

- smooth! - And so good!

Right?

Wonder who this is from. There's no name.

Looks like someone forgot to put a name tag on it.

After gifting such an expensive phone?

Looks like someone was trying to get into the IAS officer's

good books but missed out on the chance!

Whoever it is, poor thing spent nearly a lakh on it!

Could it be your ex-boyfriend?

- This mysterious entry? - Fat chance!

When we were dating, he didn't even buy me ice cream!

So why would he now?

Anyhow, you can use it. It's the latest model.

That's true. I've been thinking of changing my phone.

Hey! I forgot about the main gift!

Dad gave it me just as we were leaving. Now we're rich!

- Sajin? - Why didn't you tell me about this?

I thought I'd tell you after we got here. Why?

Your Dad already gave you money in your account, didn't he?

I had said even that was not necessary.

So why this now? Seems like charity to me.

Charity? Come on!

We're family now! He just wants us to be happy.

Can't you see it like that?

Not 'us', Shobhitha. You.

This is because he thinks I cannot afford

- the kind of luxury you are used to at home, isn't it? - No!

It's not just that. It's illegal to keep so much cash in hand.

- Know that? - So that's your problem?

No. But that is also a problem.

It's not like no one ever does it.

Of course not! But Sajin Zachariah will not do it.

That's not why I slogged to get into the IAS.

I refuse to do that.

Shobhitha, I don't mean to disrespect anyone.

And there's no reason for us to fight about this.

First thing in the morning tomorrow, I want you

to take this back to your Dad. You can tell him I said so.

Maybe there is something wrong with my thinking.

I don't like anyone to interfere in my life.

And my life now includes you too.

The man of the moment! It's Dad.

Hey... call him back later?

It's Dad, Sajin...

Dad...

Yes... we reached an hour ago.

No... we are only going to eat now.

- Congrats, Sir. - Thank you.

"Dr Sajin Zachariah IAS, District Collector and Dist. Magistrate"

Ajith, let me know when the next land deed camp

- is happening for this area. Immediately. - Ok, Sir.

Let me look into it. If there's a camp,

- we can resolve it there. I will talk to the RDO as well. - Ok.

- Don't worry. We can sort this out. - Ok.

- What was your name again? - Thankappan.

Ok then.

Sir, the people from SPARROW are here.

- Please ask them to wait for just 2 minutes. - Ok, Sir.

- Hello? - If your first petition comes from your wife

will you file a case or something?

- What can you pay as bribe? - Let's discuss that in person.

- At sharp 7 in the evening. - Huh?

I will be ready. You'll come, won't you?

- Tell me what this is about. - Oh! I can't!

What if someone is tapping your phone?

I first need to see if I can leave office at 7.

Don't try that trick on me! I've already asked your PA.

I made sure you'll be free by 5.30 before I called.

You called my PA? What for?

Otherwise I know you'll make up some excuse like you just did.

Shobhitha, this is what I don't like. Keep the professional

and personal separate. I've told you this many times.

I just called for the information.

Ok. But please, don't repeat it.

Fine. But tonight at 7, you have to make yourself free.

I can only say that I will try. It depends on a lot of things.

- What's this about? - Dad has organised a party in your honour.

- He asked me to... - Come on! Give me a break, Shobhitha!

Couldn't you have told him I don't enjoy all this melodrama?

He has already invited guests.

Not just Dad, but me too.

They are coming from all over. Many of them are far busier

than you. You should be there.

- Who are the guests? - I can send a list of people I invited.

In case you want to carry out a background check or something.

- I don't know who Dad has invited. - Ma'am...

And I cannot ask him that.

Shobhitha, most of them will be coming to curry favour with me.

On account of attending a party today, I'll be forced

to do a hundred favours for these people tomorrow.

These are not people I am unfamiliar with.

They are all dignified, self-respecting people.

None of them need favours from you to get ahead in life.

- They're bigger than you! - Exactly.

I prefer the smaller people.

That is the fault with your background.

7 o'clock. Urban Dreams.

Nothing is going to be cancelled. I will be there.

- You have to come. - Is that an order?

Yes!

Not just the introduction, we also hope you will

carry out the prize distribution.

The dates can be as per your wish.

The last ministry was entirely dependent on Cyriac.

And with just three MLAs.

Even the CM did not have as much of a role then.

Next election, they should project Cyriac as Chief Minister.

- Sajin... - Yes? One minute, please.

- Nikhil... Venus Builders... - Ok.

- Hi. Congrats! - Thank you!

His father was my classmate.

Joshy... he was there at your wedding.

- Oh? - Yes. - Cyriac! - Hi there!

My father was taking care of the business.

And I was in London. But now

because he has some health issues I had to step in.

Our present construction is near the High Court junction.

And it's half way through. But then

some issues came up because its near a waterbody.

So I wanted to ask if there's

any way you could help.

- One second. - Ok.

Not your vibe, is it, Sajin?

In professions like ours,

some connections like these will come in handy.

A few harmless favours both ways will be

useful for us, going forward. No complications.

When you say 'professions like ours'

you mean being ASP and Collector?

Power is not something that stands alone.

It needs some help.

Thank you. For the free lesson.

Excuse me!

Repeat.

You know... you are lucky to be a Christian.

I mean, you know how close Cyriac Sir and I are.

It started around the time I got into the IPS.

That family is like my own to me.

You know, Sajin...

I know you won't mind. That's why I'm telling you.

I'd once asked Cyriac Sir

if I could marry Shobhitha.

He was very interested, I know.

But you know how it is. They're a big family...

and here I was, a non-Christian.

I should never have desired it.

You were the lucky one.

- You used to curl it in college days. - Yes, I did. - Not after?

I couldn't do it with my hair that time.

- So then I dropped it. - Bring the car.

- Yes? - I have a headache. I'm leaving.

Already? We can get someone to buy medicine.

Just tell your Dad for me.

What was that? For whose benefit was that show?

Mine? Or Dad's?

You are not up to the level where you can insult us!

And it's not going to affect us in any manner.

Because we're so out of your league.

And you! I don't want to see you around here ever again!

- I know how to take care of my stuff. - Shobhitha!

So this is for the sake of my studies? Till I met you

I have not needed any help from anyone to study.

And I will continue to do so!

At first, I fell for all the pampering.

But you can't put down her designation as

'Collector's occasional one-night stand' can you?

So she is your wife's baby-sitter. How convenient!

You may leave. I mean, for the time being.

As usual, report for work at 9 tomorrow.

By the way, I hire and fire my staff myself.

If you find it difficult to work here, you can come to office.

And I apologise for her.

Good night, Sir.

Look... don't think of this as

the two of us interfering in your life.

After I heard things from many quarters, I asked her.

And while talking to her, I understood

that neither of you are happy.

One of you in a highly responsible position

and the other a student.

It's not an easy thing.

I was a Minister's daughter.

It's nothing I don't understand.

A wife is not the same as a daughter.

I have my ways of doing things.

If some ways are not ok with me, you should be able to change.

Or else you should not have trapped me into this.

In my personal life, I am willing to make any change needed.

But not in my profession.

A Collector doesn't chart programs as per his wife wishes.

- But when did I... - Let Sajin finish talking.

Without your mother's support

I could never have been in politics the way I am.

You don't know things well enough. Sajin is

one of the best civil service officers around.

That is not just my opinion. That is the general talk.

He willl reach great heights.

Don't do anything that will stand in the way of that.

He might get angry at times. Or do things you don't like.

You have to learn to take it all in your stride.

Also, nothing is greater than family.

Do you understand?

- Are you done with your drink? - Yes.

- In that case, let's have dinner. - Ok.

- Let me take a quick shower. - Usha! Set the table, please.

- Sajin. - Yes?

By the way, the enhancement verdict on an LAR case

will come to you by the end of this month.

It is related to some land purchased by the Government

during my time as Minister.

It was procured from someone known to me.

He is in a bit of trouble right now.

Try not to delay that file.

Just sign it and send it along.

Forget about this issue. At times

you have to be a father to her and not just a husband.

I've been thinking

about talking to someone

and getting a transfer to somewhere in North India.

Unless we get away from all these people around us

we won't have the space to understand each other better.

Who do you mean by people around us?

My parents or my friends?

Who do you want to take me away from to 'make space' for us?

Please!

Don't make me look like someone I am not!

"In a press conference this morning, three MLAs of the"

"rulng party revealed a letter written by Sajin Zachariah,"

"the Ernakulam District Collector to the Land Revenue Commissioner"

"They allege that corruption was involved"

"in a land deal in 2017, where the Government purchased land"

"from a private individual to build an IT Park."

"They alleged that with the knowledge of"

"Cyriac Palathinkal, who was then the Industries Minister"

"the base price of the land was altered."

"The Collector submitted proof of his suspicion that land prices"

"were illegally revised, along with his letter."

If the petition is mutual, divorce is easy to get.

Don't delay it and waste both our time.

I have a lot of plans for the future.

This was a third rate revenge, Sajin.

This was not the way to challenge my Dad.

- That was my duty. - Good luck with your fucking duty!

That is so dead!

(Sajin) She aborted the baby.

It was not Shobhitha's fault.

There were always people around her. Telling her what to do.

In that case, why do you keep such a close watch

on Shobhitha's life?

As far as we know, a divorce is all she wants.

If you agree to that, it could mean closure for both of you.

This may not be a progressive thought at all.

But divorce is a word feared by people like me.

Especially in my family circles.

Shobhitha was always a big politician's daughter.

She expected that being a Collector's wife

would have the same level of glamour to it.

Because she was too young. And too much

under the influence of her father.

It is my efforts to give our marriage a second chance

that she terms 'watching' and 'stalking.'

She believes I am behind everything that happens to her.

Which is ridiculous.

I am not being stubborn.

I still believe we have a chance for a life together. That's why

I am against the divorce.

To have a life away

from the influence of all those around us.

I'm still hoping for that.

I know you left this behind because you were too scared

to accept a gift from a dangerous narcissist with a personality

disorder. But seriously, this is a good book.

- Thank you. - Thanks.

Did you tell Hussain Sir about meeting me?

No. I don't share such details with my Dad.

He was a terror in the Medical College!

During the time your sister died and he went on long leave

we all missed him a lot.

Till I left college, he never came back.

There were talks of depression and suicidal tendency.

Those were the rumours we heard.

- Now he is ok, right? - Yes.

When a tragedy happens, anyone can go into shock.

- People just like putting labels on such... - No.

He did go into depression. And he did have a suicidal tendency.

Those were not just labels, Sir.

I am... sorry.

Good day, Sir. We'll be in touch.

- Ayesha... - Did you call Shobhitha?

No... I was just going to.

Didn't you say in the group that you would call her at 11?

I got a little tied up. Sorry.

You could've at least informed us in the group.

This was my first car.

Check your account. The money should be credited by now, ok?

Here.

This will help me tide things over for a bit.

But I don't know what will happen after that.

90% of the solutions we have developed

have been appreciated.

But we haven't been able to really make an entry so far.

All my hopes are now pinned on EYES.

If the trial period turns out to be a success

we will get government sanction.

Then our software will go big!

I will go big!

I am sure of that.

Can't you ask your brother for help till then?

Oh no!

We barely talk 3 or 4 times a year.

After Dad also passed away, it has become even rarer.

He hasn't even asked me

what exactly it is that I do here.

EYES has to succeed, Ayesha. I have no other option.

- And... - Sorry! - No, no! No secrets here. Come!

- Want some? - No, thank you. - You?

In any case, not for you. You don't exercise or diet.

But seriously, I think we need to protest against the falsehood

that dark chocolate can uplift your mood!

If that was true, I should've been the happiest person alive!

What exactly is troubling Madam's mood right now?

Madam has a huge crush! On our Collector!

She is planning to confront Shobhitha about all the

injustice she has done to him!

That we should.

You know what I think?

Cyriac and SP Harish are using their power

to trap Sajin Sir in this.

If Sajin Sir had remained silent on that land issue

Cyriac would have been a Minister now. Maybe even the CM.

Because that didn't happen, he is using his daughter

to have his vengeance, using us as tools.

- What do you think? - Till now

I only felt the need to know what the victim

had to say, in general terms.

Till I spoke to Sajin Zachariah today.

What Tanvi said is definitely a possibility.

What we have with Shobhitha will be like an interrogation.

In a way she doesn't realise that's what is happening.

I am not saying I am on Sajin's side.

But I am also not on Shobhitha's side. At least for now.

If it turns out he was in the right, would that make

our diagnosis of him, wrong?

Not necessarily.

People who have reached heights through a lot of hard work

could have an element of narcissism. And in some cases

it could affect their personalities.

But Shobhitha is manipulating us.

I'm sure of that. Let her get her divorce and say good bye

to him. Women will be queuing up for him!

And who said dark chocolate doesn't uplift your mood?

You remember the statement we took of Shobhitha the first time?

Lets watch that again, shall we?

I think in this case, we should start again.

- From the beginning. - No! Don't take the bike away!

- I won't let you take it away! - Listen... son...

It's a huge shame to get beaten up in front of your kids!

They will never respect you again! So move away, son.

- Beat me up if you want...I... - Move! Where was this

- attitude when you were borrowing the money? - Let's go.

- Hey! You there! - Huh?

- Is that guy here for you? - What?

Is he gesturing towards you? Or...

Oh... I think it's me...

- I called only him. - But I came along too.

I want to listen too.

So... Hey! Come on, now!

Hands off while you speak!

Do you know the minimum quality a goon should have?

The ability to recognise a cop when you see one.

Or else you will find your spine on the street, moron!

- Oh... you're... sir... - What?

- If you have knives or swords, get them now! - I didn't know.

I thought it was someone out to mess with us.

Ya, that's exactly what I plan to do. So what? You'll beat me up?

- Sir, we were just... - Get lost! Go!

And don't you dare touch that bike!

- Sir, I was helpless...I... - You go ahead, ok?

I will inform the nearby station. Someone will come over, ok?

- You can go home now. - Ok, Sir. - Get lost now.

Get going! Go on!

So! What was going on over here?

- No... it was nothing, Sir. - I see.

He borrowed some money from Brother Saju

4 months ago. When we came to ask for it back

he was throwing attitude!

How long can we wait?

In truth, it is to remind him

not to waste his money that we

- are taking the vehicle away. - That's good.

Why not put him in your group? Maybe he'll get reformed!

- But that is... well... - What business do you have

- with that girl named Varsha? - Business?

You seem to be asking her for money regularly. Why is that?

She is my daughter-in-law. My son was going to marry her.

- She is like my own daughter. - I see! But if that daughter

doesn't think of you as a father

is it right that you keep asking her for money?

But Sir... she has no problem with that!

In fact, she is only too happy to help me out. If I need

money for medicines or something like that

I mention it to her when we talk and she always gives it to me.

If she has any problem with that, I'll never go there again.

Does it take so much intelligence to figure out that a girl

who works in a shop doesn't have a lot of money?

She never told me that, Sir.

If she did, I would do whatever I could to help her out.

You... are an outdated goon.

And I am a new-gen cop.

The first thing we learn is to sniff out playacting.

If you ever again go anywhere near her

then the biggest miracle your Brother Saju will have to do

- will be getting you out of jail! - I swear, Sir

I...won't... ever go there again, Sir.

- I'm on my own now. - Ok. If you're sure about that,

- it will be better for your well being. Go away now. - Ok.

- Yes, Chechi? - Where are you? - I am in Pallimukku.

We have a small issue. Jayanthy sent me

the list of names of everyone who visted Ritika Syam's building

in the past two months.

- And? - Not over the phone.

- I am at the station. You come over here. - I'll be right there.

(Shobhitha) When I walked out of my marriage

I had decided that I was going to start a fresh life.

Sajin was a completely closed chapter for me.

But he is after me.

It's true he doesn't call

or meet me or do anything directly.

But without doing any of this

he is causing disturbances in my life from afar.

My friends... my career...

my individuality...

all of it is being destroyed because of him.

He is going around telling people I am insane.

He is killing me inch by inch.

Can you help me?

(Mother) Who's that at this hour?

What?

What do you want?

Come here, child.

Here... see this?

The medical college people are saying something's really wrong.

They need a scan to decide on the treatment.

I have managed to raise 2000 rupees.

I need 4000 more.

If my son was alive I wouldn't have to worry about all this.

How can you come here at this hour? What do you want us to do?

Give me the money of course! What kind of talk is that?

If she had not dumped him, he would still be alive.

You know? She can't walk away from that responsibility,

can she? If she feels otherwise let her tell me to my face.

I gave you 2000 last week.

And 3000 the week before that. I can't pay you every time you ask!

If your son committed suicide, that's his fault.

Don't try to pin the blame on her.

I am a father who had to see his son's charred body.

And you are telling me not to talk to you about it?

I respect you. If it was anyone else

I'd have stuck a knife in their bloody guts.

We don't have that kind of money! We just don't!

In that case I don't need money.

Just give me your necklace. I am sure it's gold.

I can pawn it. What is gold for

if not emergencies?

I am sure my son has given you necklaces and bangles too.

After all you spent quite some time with him

behind bushes and under trees... after work, I mean.

I will give it to you. But this should be the last time.

Come day after.

- But how can we keep on giving like this? - We won't, again.

This is the last time. If he comes again

I know what to do.

- So do you want me to come to the shop or...? - No.

Come here. And don't walk in so late.

So... the day after... I have Bible class from 4.

I'll be here by 6 or 6.30... maybe 7.

Ok?

This is where he burned your scooter, right?

And for that too, you had complained to the police, right?

Look here, girl! I am his father. The man who made him.

A pesky constable is as far as you can reach.

If you think that is all it takes to subdue me

you really don't understand our background at all.

It's ok. I won't hold it against you.

If I did, I would've

brought two bottles of acid and thrown it in your faces.

It's my son you killed. Never forget that.

It's better if we keep family matters between us.

Not for me. I mean better for you!

Ok then.

- Ritika Madam is in shooting? - Yes.

At Kuttikkanam.

The people who came here

during the two months that Madam was away -

was this person among them?

Hello... Mummy... it's Jessy.

Please, not so loud!

Mummy... keep your voice low... everyone will hear you!

No, Mummy... we don't have any problems here.

We are fine.

No. I can't tell you where we are.

And also don't say anything to the EYES people.

Let them believe we are still at home.

Priyan is perfectly fine now.

He doesn't drink.

No, he doesn't hurt me, Mummy.

I have to go now.

- Here... money... - No no no!

No money. (In Tamil) Have you run away from home?

(Conversations in Tamil in background)

- How much, brother? - 130 Rupees - Give me some money.

How would I have any more money?

If I should have money, I should look for some other means now.

Hey! Don't hit her in my shop!

Just go home! What do you think you are doing?

(Yoga instructions in background)

(Ayesha) We spoke to Sajin Sir.

I need to make a call.

Please go ahead and talk.

I'll be in the next room.

Leena, please come.

Phone or our first time in bed?

Which story did he tell you first?

Either he can convince you

or confuse you.

He can predict what I am going to say

and make a whole other script of it, to present before you.

He has presented his version to many people I know.

In those stories, I am the spoilt brat who fights over everything

and he is the poor suffering husband.

He can present his own words as mine

and my words as his.

He'll keep turning things around and play with your mind.

You will have to decide

which one of us to believe.

To do that, we first need to hear what you have to say.

If you don't mind, the whole story...

once more.

Stop outside the college gate, ok?

- Why? - I feel a bit embarrassed.

About being seen with your husband?

You don't know, Sajin!

The kind of comments the girls will make...

and all the questions they will ask.

What questions?

- Nothing. - Huh?

Oh! Got it!

- Girls talk about all that? - What did you think!

It's their favorite subject!

Most of them have boyfriends and have done stuff too.

But they will still ask.

So if they have boyfriends, they are sure... to have done stuff?

Not necessarily... but if situations present themselves

who wouldn't?

And if they marry other people?

Would they tell their husbands?

Some would. Some wouldn't.

- Shall I let you in on a trade secret? - Yes?

If you're 100% sure your husband won't ever find out about it...

then shhh!

I used to think the first time

was painful for women.

That's what my friends with experience of this used to say.

But we didn't have that problem.

Isn't that strange?

- Sir. - Please send me the account details. And the bill.

- Sir, that is not... - Just text it to me.

Ok, Sir.

What's this for? I got that gift phone just yesterday.

I already activated it.

Who sent it anyway? Did you figure it out?

No. Nothing was written on it.

It wasn't for me. I'm sure of that.

Welcome to my life.

I love you.

(Shobhitha) That... was the start of our marriage.

At that time I saw it... or at least I tried to see it...

as a sort of mad love he had for me.

But slowly

I realised it had a lot of other shades to it.

- Party? Where? - Urban Dreams.

- Be there at sharp 7. - Jeez!

If you'd told me before, I would've invited some people too.

It's only 11.30. You could still do that.

- At least people in town. - Wish you'd given me a hint.

- When did you organise all this? - Who said

I organised it?

All credits to Dad.

- Dad? - Yes. It's his party.

Why is your Dad organising a party for me?

- Sajin...? - I decide about my life.

And not just my life. Yours too. Party indeed!

It's no party! Just an excuse to show off the son-in-law!

What do you want me to do?

All the guests are invited. I can't call Dad now

- and ask him to cancel. - Of course not!

You are still your Dad's daughter even after getting married.

You haven't graduated to being my wife yet.

Have you invited your ex?

You could, you know. I wouldn't recognise him.

How convenient it will be for both of you!

- I'll call Dad and tell him to cancel everything. - Ma'am...

- Happy? - If I want to say that I don't need you to do it for me.

I won't humiliate the two of you. I'll be there.

- Hey! All good? - Of course! Double!

- Shall I send some starters over? - No... thanks.

- Do you drink daily? - Huh?

Oh no. Just on occasions... for functions and stuff.

And I stop at 2 or 3, max.

How old are you, Harish?

Turning 33 on the 10th.

Oh! Happy birthday in advance!

Thank you.

- No plans to get married? - What? Oh... that...

Please get the hotel manager or MD to come here.

- Sir? - You can't?

- Or they won't come over if asked? - I'll get him, Sir.

- Go on. - Oh...

Some proposals have come up the past one or two years.

- But it's difficult for a policeman to get a bride. -Is it?

- Of course! Look at the matri... - If you had been a Christian

you might have proposed to Shobhitha, wouldn't you?

I hope you are joking, Sajin.

Why? Is there some problem with Shobhitha?

I didn't mean that. But why are you asking this out of the blue?

I've never really thought about it.

And if you do think about it?

You were always in and out of that house.

An unmarried man of your age.

Seeing a girl like Shobhitha... she is attractive...

Surely you would have thought that some time.

Come on! We know how it works!

Ok.

Is she beautiful? According to you?

- Is she? - Sajin... you...

Hypothetical question.

If you had been a Christian, you might have been

husband and wife now. Am I right?

Let's drop that topic, please.

Did you have fantasies? About Shobhitha?

Now you're taking it too far.

I'm taking it too far?

The ASP has been sitting before the Collector, legs crossed

addressing him by first name and drinking

for over 15 minutes now. And I'm taking it too far?

Now get up! And salute me!

And from this point, call me Sir.

If you have any doubts about that, ask your superiors.

I have no doubts about that. Also,

when meeting during a private function, there's no need

to salute. You should do your research too, 'Sir'.

Sir, I am Rinosh. I'm the manager.

I mean that...

You or your Dad. One of you ask Harish to get out of here. Now.

- What happened? - No questions.

- Tell me what the matter is, Sajin. - I have to give a reason?

Harish is Dad's friend, Sajin.

Yes or no?

- Tell me what the matter is. - Let that stand for now.

Just ask him to leave the party right now.

I will need to know why.

- You won't, otherwise? - No.

Rinosh!

- Who should I make the payment out to? - But, Sir..Cyriac Sir...

Give me the bloody name.

Urban Dreams Pvt Ltd

This must be in excess. Send me the balance.

And don't you dare accept payment from anyone else.

- That is your responsibility. - Yes, Sir.

(Sajin) Sometimes I feel lonely.

I need someone to understand me too.

Vinitha, I...

I need to leave now, Sir. Good night. Good night, Ma'am.

It's late, Vinitha. I'll drop you.

Shanoj is outside. He can drop her.

I know how to drive.

Latha...

We... I mean I will be eating out.

I don't need dinner. Come, let's go.

(Shobhitha) I had started to think that our relationship

had no future.

Not just once... but after each such incident.

But before I could come to a decision about it

there would be something to pull me back.

(Principal) This came for you.

Sir, this is one of the most routine things.

A court order arrives. The Collector okays it

and signs the enhancement file.

But in this case, Sajin Sir got people

to search for land documents that are over 6 years old

to back his report that there was something amiss.

If he is so particular about such details for

each file, he should do the same in all cases.

In no other case has he gone into such details.

No Collector does. There is no reason to do that.

This was a targeted attack against you, Sir.

I'm staying here from now on, Dad.

I will drop by the house to get my stuff and then leave with Mom.

I could've left without telling you.

But we've had our moments, didn't we?

Let the legal matters happen in their own time.

- We won't have complications. - Why're you doing this?

- What did I do? - Come on, Sajin.

Don't play the victim. Both of us know very well

what you did.

Ok, I do. But is it wrong that I did my job?

I did a bit of research before I came here to meet you.

I am sure it's not the first time a file like this

came before the Collector.

Did you always go digging into documents like you did for this?

I am not giving my Dad a clean chit.

And I know Dad is not always innocent in everything.

If it was any other Collector in charge here, I would've

seen this as just another political controversy.

But this happened because he is Cyriac Palathinkal.

And more importantly, father of Shobhitha Cyriac Palathinkal.

The Collector son-in-law's response

to the affection I have for my Dad.

I pity your immaturity.

And I'm sad that I was your wife once.

There are visitors waiting, I guess.

Thank you for your time.

Just a second.

I am not asking you to stay or trying to justify myself.

You can go ahead and believe everything your Dad says.

But there are a few additions.

When the Government purchased the land from this individual

there were a few houses on it.

When the residents refused to leave, it wasn't the police or

Courts that stepped in. It was a bunch of notorious goons.

I have seen one or two of their bosses. At your house.

In your sitting room. Dressed in politicians' whites.

You mentioned the files that come before a Collector.

It's not just files. There are also people who come to meet me.

Among them, there are people who lost their homes.

And their kids. They ask what they are supposed to do now.

The land didn't belong to them. It's true.

But children shouldn't end up in orphanages or parents on the

streets. No one should profit out of such deals in the name of

an IT park that is never going to come up.

There was a man named Raveendran who protested against it.

He went missing.

And later they found him, dead. By suicide.

When I sent the report to the Land Revenue Commissioner

these details were left out for just one reason.

That he is the father of Shobhitha Cyriac Palathinkal.

But if I didn't do at least this, I wouldn't be able to sleep.

Go ahead. When your Dad tells you these are all false stories

you can blindly trust him on that too.

Mom... I am not coming home.

And please tell Dad not to come to see my anymore.

- Ma'am... medicines. - Excuse me.

Those doubts rising in your mind about me right now...

that is his game. He will make you believe what he says.

There were houses on that property. That is true.

But they were not occupied.

No goons went there.

No one named Raveendran committed suicide.

Those are all imaginary characters. Imaginary situations.

To make her believe in them, he even

had files created for those lies.

He portrayed me as a murderer

and got her to delete me from her life.

And it wasn't just me. Everyone who was close to her

became his enemies.

To him, she was someone who was supposed to behave

only as he liked and do what he asked her to do.

Like she was his property.

He's a dangerously sick man.

But Sir, it's not necessary that it's all so one sided.

I'm not talking about what you just said.

But couldn't at least some of this be her imagination?

The depression that Shobhitha is under right now...

it's possible she had it even earlier.

That is how it is in a majority of cases.

It might just come out stronger in some situations.

It's possible she was reading too much into things

that Sajin Sir did quite innocently.

- I mean... even... - Wow!

You know so much about Sajin. In that case

you should also be knowing something about his parents.

At least a small detail?

But you don't.

A poor farmer and his wife who would have negatively impacted

his social status was out of his list a long time ago.

There's an Uncle he calls his only relative

and that is because he happens to be rich.

Is that part of my imagination as well?

Then you might like to listen to the rest of what I imagined.

What did you say your name was?

- Tanvi. - Wouldn't you, Tanvi?

Yes, Ma'am?

I am making a visit home. Please tell Shanoj.

Home? You mean your parents' home?

(Vinitha) Hello, Sir?

Ma'am said she wants to visit her house.

She asked me to call Shanoj.

Ok.

Ok, Sir.

Ok.

- Hello? (Sajin) - What were you up to?

I was... working on my portfolio.

Ok. Let's have lunch out today.

I'll come by 1.30. Be ready.

Ok.

The driver said you came and picked her up, Hannah.

Yes but we parted after lunch.

And she didn't say where she was going?

- No. - And you didn't ask?

No... I thought she was just going home... or...

Hannah...

Shobhitha is sitting somewhere

where she can hear us right now. I know.

May I please come in?

Look... you may or may not believe what I am saying.

But I can't invite you in and entertain you right now.

- Please leave. - Hannah... careful.

- He wants to meet Shobhitha. - So? Let him.

Come in.

- Your Dad's not home, dear? - No. He's in Mumbai.

- How are the wedding preparations? - Going well.

Go ahead. Talk.

I've come to take you home.

We have space in our building.

You have a Masters degree in architecture.

From tomorrow, you can set up your own office

and live without support from anyone.

As long as I am alive, you need no bloody IAS fellow

or his father to help you!

Come, Shobhitha. Let's go.

Good luck with your career.

- Shobhitha....- Sir? - We're very happy with the views.

The commercial terms are also more or less acceptable.

You can start with the detailed drawings and other mobilisations.

Ok.

Dates are not flexible though.

- Please sit with the project and the finance team. - Ok.

- You can go ahead and prepare a detailed budget. - Sure, Sir.

Superb! Looks good.

- Rishi... - Sir.

- This is your first independent work, right? - Yes.

So your advance. All the best!

Thank you, Sir.

OK, Ma'am... one minute.

Basement parking, come in. 426.

- Hello. (Sajin) - Congrats.

I knew you wouldn't pick up if it was my number.

Great going. I know this group.

Some papers relating to their apartment project in Kochi

are before me. It is a problematic property.

If I don't approve, they will be in big trouble.

Or else...

Excuse me.

I'm terribly sorry. There is a small clarification we

need to make about the date on that cheque.

My bad! Can I have the cheque back?

Thank you. The finance team will get back to you.

So sorry for the confusion. Ok?

Come on! Come on!

Oh no!

Hey! Stop the music! Let's start again!

Hope we're not late.

- Hi, Uncle! - Hi! - Hello!

- Got delayed? - Yes, a little.

Come, come! The bride and groom can't disappear! Come, dance!

Hey! I'll be right back, ok? Just a minute.

- Come with me. Come on! - What is it?

- We have 4 franchisees now. - Oh! - But we are also starting

- two abroad. - I see. - Excuse me! - Ya?

- Just a second. - Uncle... this is Shobhitha. My friend.

And this is James Uncle.

- Uday's father's brother. - Hi! - Hi, Uncle!

James Uncle is building a grand new house at Kakkanad.

Nothing grand about it. Just a small house.

True... very small! Only 8000 square feet!

Shobhitha is an architect. She is Cyriac Palathinkal's daughter.

- Oh! Ok! - We were together in college.

- I see. - You should promise me, Uncle.

Let Shobhitha do the interiors. At least you should try her out!

She has just started her own firm. It's called Cocoon.

I can guarantee, Uncle. You will be amazed.

- Sure. Can I have your card? - Yes. - Hey! Come on!

- Can I have your card too? - I'll be right back. - Ok.

- You are Cyriac Sir's daughter, aren't you? - Yes.

- I'm Uday's father. - Oh!

Please come.

- Ok, I'll call you! - Ok, Uncle!

- Hope Cyriac Sir is doing well. - He is.

In truth, I came over right now because I heard you were here.

Our family runs many businesses.

Things were going on rather peacefully

till the day you left your husband and came to this house.

To be exact, till that day.

From the next day, my dear child

everything possible for a Collector to do

to harm us, he did.

He can do nothing to Hannah's Dad.

Because all his business is abroad.

So he was taking out all his anger on us.

We are left with no peace of mind!

Finally, when I ran out of options, I met him in person.

What he was really saying, though not in so many words

is that as long as Hannah

continues to have a relationship with you

he would never loosen his grip on us.

You can talk to her on the phone. But nothing beyond that.

Also, what I have just told you

it would be great if you could keep it a secret from Hannah.

- Brother? - Yes? - Shall we go?

He will be keeping tabs on whether you attended

the engagement and wedding.

He is that kind of a person.

(Cyriac) Yes, honey?

Dad... use all your connections and power.

Call whoever you need to.

I want a job.

I want to work and show him.

I need to work and show him.

Good.

This is a joint venture with the Government.

We usually hire people with experience.

But when Cyriac Sir asks for something...

I have known him for years. I have even been to your house.

With regard to a transfer I had requested.

Oh! Sir!

Please sit.

I just dropped in because I was passing this way.

Hi.

Sir, this is about the cable car project interiors.

- Are these completed works? - No, Sir.

- It's her portfolio. - Oh.

You mean... the stuff kids do on computers?

I'm on the Director Board of this project.

Come to my office in the evening. We will discuss.

(Shobhitha) - I lost the baby. (Mother) - Oh no! Honey!

The doctor said it was due to stress.

I did not step out of the house after that.

Or rather, the next time I stepped out was to come here.

I went into clinical depression.

Stop him. If you can.

I don't need anything else.

So who's lying? Sajin or Shobhitha?

Shobhitha.

This is not because I have a soft corner for him.

But just listen to this.

The party, ok?

Shobhitha returns from the party and sees

Sajin and Vinitha sitting in the dark.

Like they were having an affair, correct?

- Correct. - Sajin knew Shobhitha was going to come back.

And yet he was in a space like the sitting room

without locking the door. And sitting in the dark

he tells her something like 'please understand me'

or some crap like that.

And Shobhitha hears that as she walks in.

Isn't Sajin more intelligent than that?

He would surely maintain more secrecy, wouldn't he?

You're right. He's very intelligent.

That's why this incident took place in the sitting room

and in darkness.

Two days after Shobhitha left Sajin's house, he got

Vinitha transferred to another office in another district.

If it was an affair, wouldn't she have continued working with him?

Wouldn't that be more convenient?

Vinitha was only his spy. To get him info about Shobhitha.

When her purpose was done, he got rid of her.

- So you mean...? - Triangulation.

Making the wife believe he is having an affair

thereby ensuring his wife's love, attentions

and possessiveness stays focused on him.

To make the wife insecure and dependent.

It's a classic textbook example.

EYES is on the right track.

It's not Shobhitha... Sajin is the one who is lying.

- Sir! - Congratulations, Tina.

Thank you, Sir.

When is your leave set to start?

Only later, Sir.

The doctor said I can continue on duty.

But I think you should take it easy.

So stay away from patrolling and L&O.

- Ok. - Also,

I am relieving you from EYES for now.

The North SI - Archana -

will be joining in your place. She's good, isn't she?

Sir, that's not necessary. I have no health issues as of now.

Maybe. But you still have a pretty big workload.

Stick to that for now. Especially

since you are both in the police force.

Sir, please don't ask me to leave at this stage.

We've just got the news that one of the couples is missing.

Priyan and Jessie. We were going to go there today.

If I suddenly leave and another person steps in

- it will affect everything, Sir. - Affect things, how?

Even in murder investigations, officers sometimes get replaced.

This is your issue. Over-enthusiasm!

Nothing wrong in toning it down a bit.

When a new person joins, there might be some starting trouble.

And after that, it will settle down and there'll be no issues.

The issue is with me, Sir.

I was that involved with EYES.

- Please, Sir. - Police officers should not get

emotionally involved in any case.

Never learned that? Just do as you are told.

Husband was here in the morning, wife at noon... what's going on?

Trouble in paradise?

How long is it since they left?

- It's over a month now. - And why didn't you inform the police?

You read their note. It says if we inform the police

they will both commit suicide.

Let them live in peace wherever they are.

Let them. But how do you know for sure they're still alive?

I am sure, Sir. Just two weeks ago

she had called me.

But you said they left their phones behind.

Their phones are still here.

She called from some other number.

When we called back, it was a stranger.

She had borrowed their phone to call.

Once before too, she had called from someone's phone.

Give me both the numbers she called from.

For God's sake, Sir... please don't

go after them and destroy our childrens' lives.

- What if they commit... - No! Nothing will happen.

- Just give me the numbers. - No, Sir.

I will not. Please, in the name of God, just leave.

If you don't give it, we have ways to get it.

That will mean more problems for you.

It will be in the papers and everyone will come to know.

Chechi... please just give it.

- It will stay between us. - But...

Hey! These guys want the number she called on from Tamil Nadu.

What for? Sir, we have

- no complaints. - You are Priyan's mother, aren't you?

- Yes. - Geetha Chechi, right?

- Yes. - Remember us?

I do. Because of you, my son

was without any peace of mind for a while.

See, child... he doesn't drink anymore.

He was all good when they left. Because of the fights

between the men of both these houses, they feared they wouldn't

be able to get married. That's why they ran away.

Now even if we want to talk to each other

it has to be in secret. If the men come to know

- it will be a terrible scene. - They will come back

when everything settles down. Both times she called

that's what she said.

Chechi, Jessy and Priyan will not have any trouble from us.

We just need to know where they are.

We need to enter that in our records.

That's the rule.

And if we don't get it

we will have to move as the police officer just said.

It's my daughter's life I am entrusting to you.

(Justin speaking in broken Tamil) So where did you see her?

- Kallar? - Why isn't Tina here?

Justin said she had an urgent meeting with the IG.

Ok. Thank you very much.

They were seen near the Tamil Nadu border.

A place called Kallar.

The first person met them near a Murugan temple.

She said her phone wasn't working and requested to make a call.

They don't know anything more.

Let's check their bank details.

They need money to live after all.

I had high hopes for this couple.

I thought we'd be able to close that file.

The last time they came to meet us, they were

both so happy. Remember?

After all this time, I thought we'd be able to

report at least one success. At least to prove that

we are, in some manner, relevant.

This is not going to go beyond the trial period.

The software or the team.

- Vidya, we are still in the process. - What process, Ayesha?

We were just about to close Priyan's case when all of us

went our separate ways over stupid egos.

If that gap hadn't happened, Jessy would've been leading

a peaceful life. I could've presented my software

before anyone and said with confidence, 'this is

'a bloody good one. Take it or leave it!'

Wait a minute! When you just said 'stupid egos'

- who were you targeting? - Just shut up, Tanvi!

- Don't take that tone with me! - Hello!

It's my career that got destroyed! What I invested

was not my family's property! It's money I have to return!

And just for your information - remember how you advised

me to diet? I'm doing it! Not to lose weight but

because I cannot afford three meals a day!

This was like stabbing me in the back.

Chechi, please...

- Would you have listened to me otherwise? - No. I wouldn't have.

And you already knew that.

You also knew how important this was to me.

Now I can just sit around and give birth. Is that it?

- That is important too. - What am I? A fool?

Don't I know how important it is and how to handle it?

Didn't I do that with Kichu?

When we had Kichu, we only had Kichu to worry about.

Now we'll have him and the new addition too.

You are even forgetting your medicines.

That happened once! Why are you making such a big deal of it?

Tina, let's not fight. Let it be like this for now.

Just think that you are doing it for us. In these circumstances

isn't this what everyone in the Department does?

Not everyone. The women in the Department.

At the start, I thought of EYES as a nuisance or a joke too.

But it's because of EYES that I

experienced the joy of being a police officer.

The joy of being a lady police officer, to be more precise.

The IG didn't get it. Nor do you.

But Archana, who is replacing me, will get it.

The pride of being a part of something like this.

Coffee or tea? I have all the time in the world now.

So we start again. I don't have to explain the details, do I?

It wasn't at my behest that you stopped the first time.

You stop when you feel like it, start over when you feel like it.

- You guys are funny. - Maybe.

Just leave Ritika alone. And cooperate.

That's what I've being doing till now.

And that gift was a part of cooperating?

You have no right to say that.

What evidence do you have against me?

You can go now. When are you returning to Bengaluru?

Tonight.

- We'll let you know the date for counselling. - Ok.

- Archana. - Hi. - Hi.

Hi.

I just came to hand over to her.

We also haven't said goodbye officially.

Ok then. We'll meet again sometime I guess.

Bye.

Ok then.

- Ayesha?- Vidya. Ayesha and Tanvi. - Oh.

Tell me about the work files you have worked on so far.

Let's take a general look today and start properly tomorrow. Ok?

- Sure. Tanvi. - Ok.

- Hello, Tina? - You don't have to tell me.

This is not my case anymore. But

someday you will have to explain why you went to Ritika's flat.

Brother...

Brother...

Could you... give me some water?

You changed it? Wasn't she watching a movie?

You could consider my preferences too sometimes. All of you.

I'm your son!

Say goodbye to Dad before you leave.

- Can I bring you something, Ma'am? - No, thanks.

- I'm waiting for someone. - Some water? - Yeah.

- Hi Ma'am. - Hi.

- Please, Ma'am... - Thank you. - Ya.

- What will you have? - I...uh...

- 'Morning. - Good morning. - You look good.

Thank you. You too! Is you work here done?

There was some last minute confusion with some clauses.

My client is all about the safe side. By noon, we'll wrap it up.

- I'll return by the evening flight. - Sir, Menu? - No.

- 1180. One ghee roast, omelette and a coffee. - Ok.

- OK, Sir. - And you? - Same.

Thank you.

- So, how's EYES? - Challenges, obstacles

- fighting it all... - Is it a lot of stress? - No.

Sameer... you know that... I had an elder sister.

- Yes... the one who... passed away? - Yes.

Do you know how my Didi died?

No.

Didi was sixteen.

And I was 12.

A boy in our neighbourhood used to constantly

harass her saying he was in love with her.

On our way to school... and back.

He wouldn't stop however much she told him to.

When we told our parents

they didn't take it seriously.

They just thought of it as child's play.

One day, Didi very strongly told him that if he troubled

her again, we would tell our principal and inform the police.

That evening, as we waited for our bus

he came with a knife and stabbed her.

Repeatedly.

I was standing right next to her.

She died on the spot.

I still remember

we were talking about some movie.

And we were laughing.

In five minutes, she was dead.

I wanted you to know this about me...

my family... because...

I'm not sure...

but someday... I might propose to you.

Hello... Mom...

Yes... I'm just about to have breakfast.

And..about that proposal... from Palakkad?

Tell them not to proceed with that.

Yes, I'm sure.

I've told you about... Ayesha...

The psychiatrist... yes, the same.

From Kozhikode...

Yes... I'm with Ayesha.

Priyan... initially we thought this was the least complicated

case. But right now it has turned out the most complicated.

In all the other cases, the victims were on our side...

Let's do one thing. Send me all this in a mail.

Oh... mail? But we don't...

Or else put it on a pen drive and give it to me.

- But... - This has a lot of private information.

- We don't... - That's why I said give it to me on a pen drive.

No... I mean... either here... or our flat.

Those are our designated workspaces.

We have decided this information stays in these two places.

Please understand one thing. This might be your only job.

But I'm taking time out of a heavy workload.

So you will have to consider my convenience as well.

Each time you call, I can't come running

to listen to your stories. If you don't trust me enough

to hand over a pen drive, how can I work with you?

I am not going to upload this online, you know?

It's not a matter of trust. This is our policy.

This contains details of people's illnesses, medication

and personal details. We cannot hand those over to you.

But you can access the information anytime you want.

Right? So that means

you are above me in this team. Is that it?

Yes, that is how it is. Ayesha is the team leader.

That is how it was when Tina Chechi was around too.

- I am not Tina Chechi. - Certainly not.

Let's let go of the boss and employee equation here.

You already have a constable for that.

He has the time and will bend as required.

My jurisdiction is not the same as Tina's.

I have a bigger workload. That's what I'm trying to say.

If that is not ok with you, I will come over

when it is convenient for me.

Archana, in Priyan and Jessy's case

we need urgent help from you.

If we could go a bit faster on that...

Then put it on a pen drive. That's all I asked.

- No... we cannot do that. - See... if this is how...

- Hi, all! - Hi. - Sir! - Sir!

Just thought of stepping in for a minute. All good?

No, Sir. Archana Ma'am wants us to mail her the case details.

Or give it to her on a pen drive. This is classified

- information, Sir. How can we... - Absolutely!

- Why do you want to have the details with you? - It's just

I can't keep coming here all the time. As you know, Sir...

There are a thousand things to do!

This is not one among a thousand things for you to do!

You are expected to give this priority.

- Understood? - Yes, sir. - And also, when you are deputed

here, we know what to do over there. That's not your worry!

Every day, one hour with the team.

And if they need more time, you make that happen.

- Is that clear? - Yes, Sir.

Ok. Carry on.

And let me know the progress. Especially on...

So... Priyan.

(Jessy singing a nursery rhyme)

Once more!

- Got an umbrella? - No.

- Ivan is quite a handful, isn't he? - You're right.

- What're you doing here? You carry on, Anu. - Ok.

You were waiting here for so long?

Hey! Whose car is this?

Is it...?

I could've taken passengers the minute I got the car.

Everyone has jobs to do.

I didn't want just anyone to be the first person in this car.

That's why I waited even after you told me to get lost.

Please drive, Mr. Priyan.

Wait!

You got drunk while waiting? Just go on your own!

If the police stop you, I'll get in trouble too!

Police! As if!

I haven't had enough for them to stop me.

When can I enjoy a drink if not today?

How true! You never have enough reason to drink!

Your Dad was always complaining that I did not

have a regular income. What's he going to say now?

So you only need Dad's consent? Not mine?

So... it was without consent

that you went out with me all these years?

And having this ice stick right now?

That's because... when a friendly neighbourhood lad

whom I've known from childhood, offers a ride, why refuse?

I wasn't the only friendly lad in the neighbourhood.

None of the others pursued me like this.

Listen... there's something I want to say.

I agree with your plans. But if this is to end

in marriage, you have to stop drinking for at least a month.

Till then, we'll stick to talking about it.

- You mean, fully? - Aww... you poor thing!

As if you would listen if I said keep it to once a month.

- Priyan...- Yes? - Please stop now.

I won't ask you to quit drinking completely.

You can drink... but not to the point that

if you don't drink one day, that would be a surprise.

When you drink, you are a different person.

And at that time, I am a different person to you.

Hey!

We should get married now.

That's why.

Here.

We should plan a tour now, to Ootty

- or Kodaikanal or something. - Yes! Yes!

What? In this tiny car? How many can fit into it?

When you bought a car why didn't you get a bigger one?

With this, at best you get a trip to the airport.

- Who would hire you for a longer trip? - Hey, Job!

All you know is your lake and your fishing!

You should see what happens in places like Ernakulam.

The taxi drivers there make a killing!

Three or four thousand on a daily basis!

You mean...

they make a lakh and twenty thousand a month?

In that case... all those people trying to immigrate...

should just drive taxis instead!

These two should be the ones going on a trip now.

Instead of sitting around and drinking like always

let's take a decision about their wedding.

Now that both of them have an income

let's not delay it anymore.

Yes... let's fix a date

right here, right now.

And based on that we should decide things...

But we can't just decide things like that

without discussing with our relatives first.

My wife's mother is still alive, you know.

Why do you need to ask my mother? She doesn't even

remember me! In any case, if we start discussing

with everyone, there will be different opinions about whether

to have the wedding in temple or Church. It'll be a mess!

As we have discussed before, we will go together

to the register office.

The same day or maybe the next

- we invite everyone for lunch or tea. - Yes!

We have to inform the register office a month in advance.

Oh! I see!

- He has already made all the enquiries! - I know!

- Sneaky fellow! - How about... October 4th?

It's Priyan's birthday.

That's true, Job.

So let's fix the 4th.

I see! So I have no say in this?

- Don't I? - Everyone heard me. It's the 4th of October.

From tomorrow, we start making the arrangements.

- So... Uncle Job... I have... - Uncle Job?

From today, he is Dad to you. And I am Bro Jomon.

- That will come in time, Bro. - Yes, it will.

So I was saying...

I will be parking my car here.

- I can't park it on the road. - Where?

Over there... that gap.

- But if you park there... - What's wrong with that?

- It's just empty space. - I was planning to plant

- some banana trees there. - Drop it, Dad!

Imagine! You planting bananas! Go ahead and park there, bro!

- Shut up, you dog! - Hey! Job! - Who are you to make decisions?

- Idiot! - And he starts! - What did I start?

You think you can just set wedding and honeymoon dates?

Last week he got drunk and made a scene at the junction.

How come no one is talking about that?

Huh?

- About that...I... - You cannot park your car here!

- Where else would he park it, man? - Oh!

Why ask me? No one should make plans based on someone

- else's property! - Please don't start! - Shut up, woman!

- Oh God! - Oh no! - I will talk as I please!

Just because he bought a car we have to

get them married? Why? Is she spare parts

- or something? - Dad! - Let him get his act together first!

What are you going on about, Job?

- Are we strangers to you? - Stop it! - Oh no!

Trying to get me drunk so you can get your way?

- What are you talking about? - Calm down, Priyan!

- Now you don't get started too! - I can see where

- this is headed. - Oh God! What is he...

First you want a parking space. Next it will be the house!

I did not raise my daughter just to get her married

- to some drunken lout. - Dad!

Listen up! Don't talk rubbish!

- You are Jessy's Dad... or else... - Or else what?

- What the hell would you do? - Please stop this! Leave me!

I want to see what he will do. Listen, boy!

My daughter can live without you.

- Don't you dare try to claim any rights here! - Hey! Hey!

- Hey you! Go home! - No! Please... stop!

- Don't you dare speak nonsense in my courtyard! - Get lost!

- Dad, please stop! - Shut up, you b***h! - Dad!

You act like a wh*** and then want me to shut up?

- Please calm down! - Priyan! Don't you dare touch my Dad!

- Son! - Say whatever you want about me.

But if you start against her I will kill you

- and dump you in the lake! - Will you just shut up?

Son... Priyan!

- Why are you leaving so early? - It's... nothing.

- Eat before you go! - I don't want to eat.

- Jessy, dear... did Priyan call you? - No.

Dear God, where has the boy gone?

He did not come home last night.

And I can't get him on the phone. I called his friends.

- They don't know where he is. - Maybe he got hired for a trip.

- Don't set foot in my property! - Oh God! There he goes again!

Why are you talking like this, Brother Job?

These petty fights used to happen everyday.

- Why are you making a big deal of it? - He tried to hit me!

Geetha! We have nothing more to do with you.

Don't come here again talking about old ties.

- Tell your husband and son too! - Brother Job... I can't get

- Priyan on the line! - Don't come here about that!

- Please calm down! - He should have thought about that when

- he got drunk and acted like that! - Please stop!

- Where has this boy gone, God! - Move!

- Why so early today, teacher? - I was just...

- Anu...- What? - If anyone asks, please say

- that I am on leave today. - You mean

- I should say that you did not come here at all today? - Yes.

- Hey Jomon! - Hi!

Jessy!

- Jessy! - What do you want?

- Where is she? - What?

Jessy!

How dare you! Get out!

- I said get out! - Where is she?

- She went to the nursery, son. - So early?

- Don't try to trick me! Jessy! - I said, get out! You dog!

This is between my girl and me!

If you come in between, I'll chop you to pieces!

What the hell do you think you are doing, you pig!

- Get lost! - Jomon!

I'm here to see my girl!

She's my girl first and only then your sister!

- Jomon, don't! - I will skin you alive, you pig!

Oh no!

- Oh no! - What have you done?

- Mummy! - He's gone crazy, my girl!

- And where is he? - There he is! Over there!

- Why on earth did you have to stab him? - If someone

acts like that in my house, I'll stab him!

- If he does that again, I will do the same again! - Hey!

Be still!

Did he hurt you, Dad?

The police will be here now. I'll show him.

- You should stand by me. - Son, let's just talk it over.

There have been fights even before.

Don't bring the police into it and spoil relationships.

Like it's a great relationship right now! Whether you

stand by me or not, I am talking to the police.

- Dad! - What happened?

Huh?

- Sure you're ok? - Dad! - Should we call the doctor?

Dad!

There is enough here to put you in remand.

Even if you complain about him stabbing you

that will be considered self defence. The case won't stand.

Be thankful to them that we are letting you go now.

Sir, I have one more thing to say here before you.

We were all set to get the two of them married.

But now, please tell them

not to pursue that matter anymore.

Especially him.

- You heard him, didn't you? - Yes.

If there is another complaint, I'll make sure you go to jail.

And you won't see the outside world again.

(Police officer) Alright. You may sign and leave.

- Jessy... - Hmm?

Can I talk to you, please?

Just for a minute, Uncle Job. I won't create any trouble I swear.

- How dare... - Hey!

I made things so bad that if I talk to you

it'll lead to a police case!

I'm going away.

I'm unable to stop drinking however hard I try.

It's not that I don't want to. I just can't.

A friend told me about a place where they help you stop.

I'm going there.

Jessy...

Can you just look at me, please, Jessy?

Till I'm sure I can stop drinking

I won't come before you again.

I won't call you either.

But if I manage to do that

it will be due to the hope that you are here for me.

(Tanvi) He was making a return to life.

And Jessy could sense that too. She was happy.

For him and for them.

Madam?

- Madam... - Huh?

I was on duty last night.

This is what I was saying. People giving orders don't get it.

So you should learn to expect all this.

- Shall I continue? - Wait.

- Ask someone to bring tea. - Huh?

- I'll do it. - No, it's ok.

Ayesha... a moment?

If this is how it is, you'll have to find a replacement for me too.

It's just an ice breaking issue. She's only started with us.

This is not about ice breaking! It's sheer ego.

Go meet whoever you have to and

- send her away. - How can I do that so soon, Justin?

So you mean

we have to put up with this? I cannot!

I'm leaving.

Call me when you have someone else. I'll come back then.

My job here is not people management.

What we are doing here is bigger than us and our mood swings.

I only want those who believe in this, on the team.

I'm not going to request anyone to stay.

Whoever stays or goes, I will take this forward.

I'll ask for the coffee.

- Not coffee. Tea. - She doesn't drink tea.

She wants us to get tea so she can say I asked for coffee.

How do you know that?

The first time we met

remember how Tina Chechi said I had a break up?

With someone from the Department?

If we had continued with that

EYES would've had another case by now.

- Go on. - Rehab did a lot of good for Priyan.

It was a one month course.

For twenty days he did not touch a drop of alcohol.

It caused a lot of change in his behaviour too.

After about 15 days, he gave Jessy a call.

Jessy could really sense the change in him.

She talked to the doctor there and

he was also very positive.

In every way Priyan was on track.

- Hello? - Are you Jessy?

- Yes. - I am the CI of Erattupetta.

Oh.

- Do you know Priyanandan? - Yes.

- His car met with an accident. - Oh no!

He is not injured. But he is very drunk.

And also high on drugs. Someone has to come to the station.

He gave your number as his close contact.

How are you related to him?

- Hello? - I know him, that's all.

- He is no one to me. - What? Hello?

He is no one to me, Sir. Please call someone else.

Damn! Whose number did this fellow give us?

I will leave for Kollam early in the morning.

I called Maya.

She is sharing a house with two friends.

She said she could help me find a job.

If I stay here

he will come here and create more trouble.

- That's for sure. - But that doesn't mean

- you have to run away. - That's my only way out for now.

I will come back when things settle down a bit.

Make sure you don't tell anyone where I am. Even by mistake!

If Jomon or Dad ask, just say I am in Kollam.

Say that's all you know.

I need to go before they wake up.

- Bye, bye, Miss! - Bye!

- See you, Miss. - See you. - Come.

Mom, did you come here in an autorickshaw?

In just a week, you have the kids eating out of your hands!

Ramani Madam has a good opinion about you too.

- And she doesn't say anything good about anyone! - Oh, is it?

All that sounds nice but I can't live on this alone.

- I have to find something for evenings too. - Hmm.

I have some enquiries about tuitions. Interested?

I'm up for anything! By the way

- how come you're early today? - I took a half day leave.

There is some protest going on outside the hospital.

If I stick around, they'll pull me into that. Besides

it's more than a week since I got a good night's sleep.

Hey! How about catching a movie today?

Nimmy and Sharu will join us at the theatre.

A movie...?

Hey! Don't worry about the money.

Hey! Did they get home early today?

How come... the door...

- Let's go? - Ok.

I'll come in the evening.

We are getting married on the date we fixed before.

Tell everyone.

We need to start living our life now, Jessy.

- Hello... police station. - Hello - We want you

to cooperate with us for a year on this project.

Or till we are sure you are ok.

You will have regular medicines and counselling.

And rehabilitation, if required.

During this period, you cannot try to

meet Jessy or contact her in any way.

If you do, we'll put you behind bars.

I have already explained the rules to you.

I'm willing to cooperate as much as you want.

I will do whatever you ask me to.

Just help me escape this.

Give me medication. Tie me up. Whatever it takes.

If I go on like this, I won't live for much longer.

I know that.

Can you do... just one thing for me?

Go on.

For this one year

can you ask Jessy not to

think of another marriage?

After that period, if I am still the same

then it's up to her.

We can't ask her that, Priyan.

You have to de detached from Priyan, Jessy.

What we need now is to bring down the

abnormal emotional dependence he has on you.

If Priyan makes any move towards you during this period

you should let us know immediately.

Ok.

If you have any questions, please ask, Jessy.

- He... will get better, won't he? - That is our expectation.

Because he himself wants it so badly.

And that's a very good sign.

- We just need to stand together. - I will.

I want him back.

You will get him back. Trust us.

Priyan was the one to cooperate the most with EYES.

He did everything we asked of him.

Counselling... medicines... all of it.

Without a miss. He stopped having liqour completely.

We even started thinking he may not need a year.

Around that time, EYES faced a small interval.

When we restarted, we made enquiries about them.

But by then, they were both missing.

Priyan has a sister - Nandana.

He had started a bank account in her name.

She signed the papers to open the account but

has no further information about it.

When we checked the bank details we found that

Priyan's transactions happen through that account.

It has all been made in a place called Kallar near Velamkanni.

It was a month before the elopement

that he opened the account. So that means

he was preparing for something like this.

But why should we pursue that matter?

They're both adults. And no one has a complaint.

It's not that simple. Jessy might have gone with him on an impulse.

I'm sure of that. Priyan could revert to his old self any time.

If that happens, it is dangerous for Jessy.

We have to go to Kallar, find them and bring them back.

- At least Jessy. - What do you mean 'we'?

You, me and one of them, Archana.

I mean, you, Madam

one of the team and me.

Do I have to come? Can't you all just go?

But one of the persons we have to meet is a lady.

So there should be a lady officer with us.

And the IG said to take you along, Madam.

But all the way to Kallar...

It will be an overnight stay, won't it?

Yes, it will.

- I'll have to ask my husband. - Really?

We leave in the morning tomorrow.

Me, you and this guy.

- What just happened here? - Simple!

- The three of them are going tomorrow. - But...

I have an announcement.

- Tomorrow is Tina's birthday. - Oh!

We had planned to meet tomorrow. But now that

this trip has come up, how about dinner?

Sure!

- Hi. - Hi.

- So this is your place. - Ya.

- You were the one who developed the EYES software, right? - Yes.

That's why I said I wanted to meet only you.

What's going on?

- What do you mean? - What do I mean?

Ok.

I met your team through the police department.

You made big promises about how I didn't need the police anymore

because you guys would take care of everything.

The man I complained against

takes a photo of my pet dog and sends it to me.

Simple question. What am I supposed to do now?

If you can't give me an answer for that

I don't want to be under EYES protection anymore.

The case against Milan is suspended for now.

Let the police take it up again.

Arrest or jail or whatever...

At least I'll have a clear picture of what's happening.

Sure, they can move with arrest and jail.

But he will be out again. And at that time

there will be no one to ensure your safety.

You mean I have that now?

What safety are you talking about?

I don't trust your team or your useless software anymore.

Come.

Come.

Look.

These are the blood test results Milan uploaded yesterday.

He is taking these medicines now which is keeping him calm.

Right now Milan is in Mystic Din pub in Bengaluru.

523 kilometres from where you are now.

His BP is 130/90 and heart rate

is 82 which means he is in a normal state of mind.

If he comes within 5 kms proximity of you

all team members will get a notification on their phone.

That very second, the police will be alerted.

We're making sure he doesn't hurt you.

This useless software is more than enough to ensure that.

Without us, you could be dead.

I'm sorry.

No... I am sorry.

I didn't know about all this.

Just that

I am unable to think straight right now.

You know Vidya? I am in a relationship.

- I know. - I'm worried he'll harm Aaryan.

Don't worry. Milan is under surveillance. 24x7.

There is something... I need to tell you, Ritika.

Not just that. I also have a request to make.

When you hear it, you might feel anger towards me.

I did something wrong.

It was... for your sake as well.

To get out of what I've done

I need your help.

- How? - This is what I was saying.

- She'll keep going on about that now. - But still... how, Justin?

Archana and you? My God!

Enough. Let it go now! Poor thing!

- He made a mistake. - Ok. Ok.

But Madam... she is not working out, Madam.

- You can call me Chechi now. - Oh!

Now that you are off the team, right?

Just seeing her expression makes us lose our spirits.

Before, I used to wake up excited to go to work.

But after she showed up, its like 'oh no! I have to get to work!'

That's the truth, Tina. I don't mean to gossip.

But somehow, when you were with us

it used to give us more confidence, I feel.

I think I felt it more after you left.

It wasn't anything you said or did.

Just your presence was enough.

- Vidya ducked out, didn't she? - Ya.

Of course she did!

She can hardly come before you anymore.

- Did you ask her anything? - No.

I couldn't get the right starting point.

And mostly, whenever I see Vidya

Ayesha and Tanvi are there too.

I don't think they have any idea about this.

It is true she went to the flat. But somehow

I still can't believe it was she who clicked that photo.

If you were on the team

the two of us could have handled it somehow.

Like Ayesha said, having you there was a source of confidence.

Now this is a secret that is weighing on me alone.

How much?

Hi.

We decided on 9. We should've been ready at 9.

It is 9 right now, Madam.

The program was that we would start at 9.

Now we will be late by at least 5 minutes, won't we?

Why? Did you have something else to do, Madam?

Start the car. The key is inside.

Varsha would like to meet you today. I said to call one of you.

- Ok? - Ok.

- Stop the car. - What?

I said stop the car.

Get me a glass of juice.

- What? - No, Madam.

- What was that? - No.

If you want juice, you have to get it yourself, Madam.

- Sure about that? - Pretty damn sure.

Is this how you are with all your superior officers?

No superior officer is like this with me.

Is that so? In that case

we are not going forward till you get me the juice.

I'll get it.

I don't understand what exactly you are trying to do.

But whatever it is, try to keep it out of our jobs.

- This is an important mission. - Oh! So this is affecting you?

But it can't be half as much as I was affected when you

dumped me with a message! I'm yet to make you pay for that!

If I left you, I also gave you the reasons why.

You wanted me to get your permission if I so much as

wanted to sit or stand or make a call!

I had to ask your permission to go out with friends

or if I wanted to get a cigarette or a drink!

The shirts you chose... the movies you chose...

even the social media posts that you decided upon!

- That was because I thought you were mine. - Bullshit!

If that's what you felt, you'd have let me do

what made me happy! Freedom...

That's also a word in the language.

Ask your husband about it. He must be suffering the same now!

As long as I'm your superior at work

I'll make you cry for what you just said.

I'll make sure you do!

Important mission! EYES!

See how I wind it up for good!

Hello?

Sir...

We are at Angamaly now, Sir.

Sir...

Ok, Sir.

It was the IG.

- He said to halt here for now. - Why?

I don't know. He said to wait

for further messages before going forward.

He says Hemant died because of me.

It's true. If we had not been in a relationship

he would still be alive now.

But how long can I keep

paying him money for that?

I know this is not really your concern.

But I...

cannot go after the police and file cases again.

When I talked to Justin Sir about this

- he asked me to come and meet you. - Ok.

- We will meet Mohanan and talk to him. - But

I am scared... that it will make things worse.

It won't. I am assuring you that.

Ok... I should get going.

Ok.

I...could you...

give me any medicine to reduce tension?

I can't handle it anymore.

Hey... we will take care of him.

But still... something...

You don't need medication for this, Varsha.

You can face this on your own.

Ok? You can do this.

I wonder if we will have to put Mohanan on our list too.

- Is everything ok? - Ya.

- Ayesha Di... - Yes?

You remember how I told the team

about seeing Hemant in Abhiram's car.

But that is all I told you.

The next day, I met Abhiram.

Do you know the team is thinking of removing me

from responsibility for that case?

As if this team decides about your future!

Can I give you my opinion? Stop what you're doing here

and go back to Bengaluru.

Come back only when it's time for the wedding.

After that, we have our own school.

You can start counselling the kids.

I'm not a child psychologist.

- Don't even know that, do you? - Big deal!

To tell kids to study well... not to fall in love...

and don't do drugs... whatever psychology you know will do.

But you don't think sending Hemant away is the solution?

- I can't just send him away. - Why not?

When you hire a driver, there is no condition

- that it's for life, is there? - Tanu...

In business, you need certain people.

Running a hotel is not an easy job.

- There's a lot involved in that. - Like what?

I want to know. Explain it to me.

Call me when you reach a decision.

And if you're not going to send him away, don't bother to call.

- Tanu... come on... - Abhiram, no!

- I mean... - I said no!

- One more tea, please. - Ok, Sir.

- Abhiram? - Yes.

I came for verification of an IP address nearby.

What did he say about Hemant?

Listen, I have to tell you this.

It's not just Hemant. I don't think Abhiram

is a straightforward person either.

At the hotel's DJ parties on weekends

there is widespread use of synthetic drugs.

The hotel is under police surveillance.

He could fall into the clutches of the police any day now.

Hemant is their main muscle.

They call him a bodyguard but in reality he is a drug carrier.

He will do anything asked of him.

Cut him off, man.

That's the best thing to do.

Kids these days... even small issues can set them off.

Small or big... she has a reason for what she said.

And to be honest, when I heard what she had to say

it didn't seem like such a small issue to me.

Maybe that's because I did not explain it properly.

That's why I wanted to come here in everyone's presence

- and explain it right. - Even if it is here

she is the one who has to listen and respond.

If she is ok with it, you can

speak to her directly, Abhiram. It's her life after all.

So the decision should be hers too.

Let's talk over there.

I'm sending him away. And I have given him two lakh rupees.

He is going to Coimbatore or Chennai or something.

He won't be an issue anymore.

- Two lakh rupees? - Yes.

- He put in a lot of work for me. - But what work did he do for you

- that you have to pay him two lakh rupees for? - Tanu...

Please call me Ram, Tanu.

Answer the question.

It's true. There were some things he did related to the hotel.

But after we talked that day I put an end to all that.

That's the reason why I am sending him away.

So you mean you have secrets that Hemant is aware of.

If we keep going back to the past we won't get anywhere, Tanu.

I really wish to go forward with this marriage alliance.

That's why I am doing all this. Please believe me.

I need some time.

I will call you.

The next night... Hemant was dead.

- No, no, no! Don't call! - Cut the call!

Oh... ok! Shit!

How can someone be so irresponsible?

It was her call that triggered him to such an extent!

- I was... - But Tina... - Don't try to defend her, Ayesha!

Everything we did so far, she destroyed in just a minute!

I want her out of the team and out of my sight!

What team? The team is over and done with!

Hey Tanu... where are you...

Tanu!

Auto!

Remember how you said you couldn't

- find a suicidal tendency in Hemant's assessment? - Yes.

You said it like that was a mistake on our part.

But I think that assessment was right.

Directly or indirectly, I think

Abhiram killed Hemant.

Here... stop here!

You may go back, Archana. I am rejoining the EYES team.

Just a minute, please.

Bye, now.

Let's go.

- Early this morning, I called the IG for an appointment. - And?

I gave him a half hour lecture on how there was no EYES

without SI Tina Sebastian. I told him about our cases

and gave him all the details. I even said

he could ask Ayesha if he wanted to. But he instead

called Archana and told her to stop the journey.

What about Praveen Chetan?

If Praveen Chetan has an issue, that's for him to deal with.

I came back so we could go forward.

But before that, we need to know what you have to say, Vidya.

Was it you who sent that photo to Ritika?

If your answer is 'no', we will go straight to Jessy.

Just tell us why you went to the flat.

But if your answer is 'yes'

the EYES team comes to an end this minute, once and for all.

Because, that is a crime and we will have to report it.

Please say no.

Yes.

Once you sign this, we can get started.

In your case, with counselling.

And you can start medicines too, immediately.

You met Shobhitha, didn't you? Last week?

Where I go... who I meet...

who I speak to... you can know all of that... with this?

Sir, we only study matters connected to Shobhitha.

- The rest of it is not our concern. - I see.

But you have access. To my life...

my privacy...

What you are saying I did to Shobhitha

is what you are doing to me now.

When can we start? Today would've been convenient.

And you will do the job of the Collector?

Just kidding.

- Come over next Saturday. - But Sir...

Saturday.

Let this remain here. It'll be safe with me.

- Thank you, Sir. - Thank you, Sir.

Are you at the Center? How is Shobhitha now?

Didn't I tell you I want

Shobhitha's reports?

Yes... pen drive or print outs.

Anything is fine.

Of course you can do it if you try.

No one will know.

I'll be waiting for your call.

Ok. Bye.

Ajith... I want to hold a press meet.

Personal.

Any day before next Saturday.

Yes... and keep it confidential.

- Who are you calling, Chechi? - Vimal Sir.

He is in charge of the case.

- So you call him... and? - And I tell him everything. What else?

- But... what about... - You think I don't feel bad?

But EYES isn't the only thing for Kerala Police. We have

- other responsibilities too. - Chechi... but we...

Leave me alone!

Hello? Sir...

Sir... good morning. Are you busy?

Sir, I was calling regarding Ritika Syam's case.

About trespassing into her flat and taking a photo...

I wanted to talk to you about that.

What? Ok...

Oh!

Ok, Sir.

No, Sir.

Thank you.

Ritika has withdrawn her complaint.

(Vidya) "Hemant's death destroyed my hopes."

(Tina) There is only one solution now.

Let's end this here.

Hemant's suicide is definitely a failure on our part.

You can't just take a decision like that. I have

an office and staff that is dependent on this.

- So even now, it's the business that's important! - Tina, just...

Let's face it. We have lost trust in our team

and also in each other.

Now let's gracefully exit from each other's lives.

- But Ayesha... we can... - I am the team leader.

So I am the decision maker too.

EYES stands cancelled.

"That decision pushed

my company into crushing debt."

(SP Harish) Vidya... I can't do anything more about this.

I have lost face before everyone!

I was the one to introduce you here.

The team leader meets the IG and says you were backing out...

It's embarassing for me.

Without a strong reason, I cannot raise this anywhere again.

And even if I could, as long as the chemistry

- between the team members is not right, no point!- Sir!

- They are here. - Ok. Ok. I have to go.

I called many times. I messaged you too.

It's when I realised I was not going to get a reply

that I came all the way from Chennai. Just for this.

This property can get a minimum of 50k as rent.

But I won't bring that up right now. You should at least

pay me the rent that was agreed upon.

Why should I trust you anymore?

Let's not get into any sort of argument.

Please just vacate my property.

A big project you had, got stalled two months ago.

I know about all that. That's why I'm here.

But that was not our only project, Sir.

With what you have right now, you can't afford

more than 10k as rent.

Please give me twenty days, Sir.

Ok. No problem.

But you have to give me a cheque bearing that date.

Hello... brother?

Oh! Is it that late? I did not think of that!

Sorry. Do you want me to call back tomorrow?

Nothing, brother...I...

I needed some money urgently.

Around...75...?

Yes...75,000...

Yes.

I'll return it next month.

It's not that I don't know... I...

Ok...

- Vidya? - Ayesha, sorry... you were asleep, weren't you?

It's ok... go on.

Milan is up to something.

For the past one month, whichever city

Ritika was in, he was there too.

I was just looking through both their Insta accounts.

I think we should do something.

- Hello? - What role do we have in that anymore?

We could restart his counselling and medication.

We already know his mental state.

He could hurt her.

I think that is for the police to take care of now.

Report your findings immediately

to IG Vinayachandran.

I'm worried about Milan too.

- But I was thinking we... - The Police Department

is not going to entertain us anymore, Vidya.

- We're a failed team. - But Ayesha... we could...

Good night.

- What's the flat number? - 5D.

- Have they left the key here? - Yes.

This place might be more

- expensive than your current one. - Ok.

- Cheta, could you open the flat and wait for me? - Ok.

- I have to be on a conference call at 12. I forgot! - Oh.

Hello Mr Shreeram?

Yes, I'll get Lakshmi on the line.

Hello? Yes?

- Mr Ramesh Nair? - Oh!

They lived here before us.

We've been here for a year now. Didn't the security tell you?

Oh... do you know where they are now, Madam?

- No. - I was his student back in Delhi.

- I see. - We've been out of touch for a while now.

- This is the address I had. - Oh.

- Where are you coming from? - Trivandrum.

- Oh. - I was passing this way and thought of dropping in.

- My train back is only at night. - I see.

If it's not too much trouble, can I have some water, Madam?

Of course. Come in!

- How about lime juice? - Sure it's no trouble?

Not at all!

Hey! Come here!

Can you ask someone there

to give this to Ritika Syam?

Don't say who gave it to you.

When you come back after giving it,

you get one more like this.

- Will you? - Ok. - Here.

I did it mostly for myself.

If the police get to know the truth behind that gift

the activities relating to EYES will completely stop.

There'll be no coming back from that.

It'll be over forever.

What I did was wrong. I had no other options left.

I'm really sorry for that.

Let's help each other here, Ritika.

And she helped me because she wanted us.

Can we go now?

Chechi, we are already quite late.

Chechi!

Where we are going, there's someone who needs us!

That's what we need to think about right now.

We have concluded a final assessment of Sajin Zachariah.

We will submit it to you tomorrow.

Going forward, we will need your decision on that.

Alright. Fine.

Come to my office tomorrow at 10.

Otherwise, is everything going well?

- What happened? - We wanted to discuss this

with Tina and Justin before we came to you.

But since they are out of station we thought we shouldn't delay it.

Sir... this is just a doubt I have.

I may be wrong.

I think... Hemant's death was not a suicide.

Ok... go on.

- Turn right here... right. - Ok.

You don't have to come. We'll go in.

Just wait here.

Come.

These are all the dates you asked for. Up to yesterday.

(In broken Tamil) So... how many...

times has he come to this ATM?

- Six times, Sir. - From yesterday...

(switching to Tamil) - Please show us yesterday's. -Ok

He has been visiting an ATM about half a kilometre from here.

That means they are somewhere in that vicinity.

The exact address.

Priyan has alcohol dependence syndrome.

It will be difficult for him to overcome it without treatment.

Such people need alcohol right from morning.

Come.

This is where you get the cheapest alcohol around here.

There are two bars as well. They are also

local but more high-end.

Priyan may not be able to afford that. So I went

to this shop and showed them Priyan's photo.

He is a regular customer. The guy there gave me the address.

So... shall we put it on the map and go?

I am worried that I have complicated things further.

If my assumptions turn out to be stupid

it would be an injustice to Abhiram.

In the end, if it is proved that he had no part in this

think of how much this would affect him.

Crap!

Do you have to think like that?

Your keeping quiet was not the solution to this.

Our team and our mission should be greater than us, right?

(Tina) Jessy! Jessy!

Go away.

Priyan will be here any minute. Please go.

Please.

He's coming. Just go.

Go! Please!

(Priyan) Jessy! Do you have any money on you?

(Jessy) No.

- Then give me that vessel. - Keep it right there!

- I said give it to me! - I said you can't have it!

Keep it there!

- I said give it! - Let go of it! - Move, woman!

Come. We are here to take you back.

Take me back and...?

You will take care of everything?

Yes. We will.

You did, once.

You made big promises about making things right!

I trusted those promises and

went back into this relationship.

Halfway through, you washed your hands off us and left.

You went back to your own lives.

And you... I called you, didn't I?

And what did you say to me then?

'That's not happening anymore'. How easy it was for you!

You shouldn't have fooled people like that!

That was the situation then. But not anymore.

Are you sure that situation won't come up again?

For now you should leave this place.

How can you live like this?

If I leave, where am I supposed to go? Home?

My family pleaded with me not to get close to Priyan again.

I disregarded that, trusting that you were going to make it okay.

He beat up my father and brother.

And yet I stood by him.

When you left, I had nothing more to hope for.

Even my own family didn't support me, you know.

When Priyan said let's go away and escape from all this

I trusted him blindly and came away with him.

Because I had no other option.

And I still don't.

But what you are doing now is suicidal, Jessy.

Yes! 100%!

The sooner it happens, the better!

Wherever I go from here, Priyan will come after me.

You know what he told me?

If I leave him again, he will murder my family.

- And he will do it! - Listen, girl!

We can put him behind bars! Or send him for treatment.

- He won't get to you again. - For how long?

Tell me! 14 days?

Suppose the treatment fails? That is what you're seeing now.

How long will you stand guard for me?

I trusted you once. Not anymore!

- Jessy, listen... - I am fine here, ok? I'm happy!

- Just happy! - Then stay here and die!

- That's what people like you deserve! - Chechi! - Let's go!

Jessy...

This is my house. Get out.

None of our phone numbers have changed.

It feels like we just abandoned her.

What can we do if there is no cooperation from her?

Even to take him into custody, we need her statement.

But this is like we left her to die.

There is a phase called 'battered women syndrome.'

That is Jessy's state right now. The fear of more trouble

causes them to put up with all the torture inflicted

on them. It's a terrible stage!

Jessy herself may need counselling and treatment now.

She believes that somehow she deserves what she's getting.

It is only when she is convinced that is not true

that she can escape from this.

If the two of you have anything to talk about, please do!

We can't go forward like this!

Who said we are going forward like this?

I came along only because I did not want this trip to fail.

Just because someone withdrew a complaint

it doesn't make the fraud done by this one any less of a fraud.

I need to discuss this with the team before I go forward.

Not just me. You too. Whenever we spoke of this case

what an act she put up!

No one can win by fooling everyone.

Vidya did it so she could get get back on her feet and get the

team back together. We saw what happened when we abandoned them.

- That's our responsibility too! - She made fools of the entire

Police Department! How many people wasted their time

and energy over this! That doesn't bother you at all?

It does! But equally important

are the 4 women who came to us.

Or the 4 or 40 or 400 more who need us.

And EYES is all they have to protect them?

I don't know about that. But in my childhood

I have wished for an EYES team to be around.

My mother did too.

You are feeling it too. Or else

you wouldn't have disregarded your husband to be here today.

Don't say stuff just to win the argument.

Come along if you're done.

I'm sorry.

As you said, Tina, let's see what the rest of the team has to say.

But Tina

what I did does not give you the license

to refer to me as 'this one' or 'she'.

I have a name.

As I said, there's nothing legal to be done by reporting this.

That case is closed.

But what still disturbs me

is how she went to that flat with a broker just to

make it seem like she was looking for a flat to rent.

If her name ever cropped up

she needed a reason to give for going there.

Such detailed planning!

Like you psychiatrists, we too have some terms and jargon.

And this is what we would call a criminal mind.

Someone who does something like this once,

is likely to do it again. That's the assumption.

And usually, we are not wrong.

What Vidya did was undoubtedly wrong.

Vidya herself does not deny that.

We have two choices before us.

Either Vidya should be out of our team

or we should go forward trusting that

such an incident will never happen between us again.

If any of you find my presence on the team

an issue, I am ready to quit.

But one request I have

is that none of you should leave the project.

I have that much confidence

in the software I created.

I am not saying this in this moment because

I have liabilities or because I need financial benefits.

The only thing that makes me value myself

is the fact that I created that software.

But...

as Ayesha said, what is the guarantee that

- this won't happen again? - I guarantee it.

Me too.

- But you can't all just... - I am not a criminal, Tina.

When someone who is not, is forced to do something like this

there is a sense of remorse that person feels.

That remorse is my guarantee.

I need to get back to the office.

I'll drop you.

I'm headed that way.

Shall we meet tomorrow morning? Since Hemant's case is going into

a re-investigation, we should discuss the details.

- 10.30? - Ok.

Come.

We should do a psychological assessment to see

who is the most innocent on our team.

I bet it will be the policewoman who just left this room!

- I'll see you later. - Ok.

- I'll be right back. - I have a doubt.

I checked Milan's Insta posts for the days Vidya mentioned.

On many instances, Milan was in the same city that Ritika was.

At that time too, he was uploading

his blood test results on our software.

According to those results, at that time too

he was taking all the medicines we had asked him to.

If the medicines were effective

would he still have been pursuing Ritika?

I am not here today in my capacity as Collector

but as a victim being targeted by Government machineries.

At least some of you are aware

that I was married to former minister Cyriac Palathinkal's

daughter, Shobhitha.

I am forced today to reveal to you

certain facts that Shobhitha and her family

hid from me before the marriage.

Shobhitha suffers from a mental illness.

With my limited knowledge as an MBBS degree holder,

and my close observation of Shobhitha while we were together,

she is delusional. At least she was

delusional when we were together.

At many points in our married life, she showed symptoms of it.

Believing imaginary facts

was part of her condition.

At a culmination point of that condition

she left our home.

We have not lived together since then.

For a while now, Shobhitha

has been at a wellness centre named Atma Arogya

undergoing treatment for clinical depression.

And... these are the medical reports.

Today, she is being discharged from there after treatment.

I had reported a corruption case that involved Cyriac Palathinkal.

And with that, I became an enemy to him.

With the help of their family friend, Harish Raghavan,

who was then an ASP and with police support

they put together a team of pyschiatrists and psychologists.

To make it seem like I was mentally unwell.

And, the team is called EYES.

Ayesha...

(Sajin) My wife's family

was clearly conspiring...

- Hello? - Sir... are you on your way from the hospital?

- Yes... - Sir, don't reply to what I say.

Please halt at the nearest private space

you have access to and send us the location.

Got it.

"Isn't Shobhitha's phone with you?"

"Tell her you forgot it in the hospital."

It saddens me to speak up about the people involved in it.

But only if I do that will you fully get

the seriousness and credibility of what I am saying.

I will not reveal any names here.

The team leader is a psychiatrist.

Let me tell you a bit about her family history.

Her sister was a victim of stalker killing.

After that incident, her father

had to undergo treatment for mental health issues.

And I say this with full confidence because

he was my professor in Medical College.

For a person coming from such a traumatic family background

she is bound to have some prejudice about stalkers.

Even though she is a psychiatrist

in her view, the victim is always the woman.

That's exactly the case here.

It was with a deep sense of vengeance

that she and her team tried to deal with me.

For this programme

in which they claim to be studying human minds

they use a software.

In truth, I am their guinea pig.

And, it is an untested software

from a company that is deep in financial trouble.

The owner of that company is also part of the team.

I suspect there is a personal motive to help her out

that is also part of all this.

The fiance of a third member of the team is suspected

of certain illegal activities and is under police surveillance.

- Shall we? - Ok. - I have those details also here.

What exactly is your intention with this press meet today?

I am not just speaking for myself today.

If these people are allowed to have a free run

they can target anyone who is out of favour with the system.

They have been truly harassing me.

I am unable to do my job in peace.

Because they have the support of a faction of the Government

I am unsure how to tackle this.

What is the solution you are suggesting, Sir?

My suggestion is to the Government and Ministry.

Every one of these people should be investigated.

And EYES should be dismissed with immediate effect.

Thank you, Sir. Please note that. Ok.

Who did you say you were meeting here, Dad?

Ayesha and Tanvi will be joining us.

They wanted to meet us.

- Can I have my phone, Mom? - Huh?

Oh no... it was right here.

Check again.

I don't see it. No.

I think I left it behind in the hospital room.

You should be careful about these things.

It's ok. We can go back and get it.

- Are you sure it is in the room? - Yes.

- It must be in the cupboard. - Where else could it be?

Come, sit.

How are you?

- What will you have? - Nothing, Sir.

- We just ate. - How about coffee?

- Ok. - For you too? - Yes, Sir.

- Two coffees. - Ok, Sir. Let us know if you need anything else.

- Ok. - Thank you.

I need to use the washroom.

I didn't see the press meet.

He is trying to destroy all of us, Sir.

What exactly is going on?

I am not here today in my capacity as Collector

but as a victim being targeted by Government machineries.

As some of you may be aware, I was married...

She is delusional.

She had an affair before the marriage.

I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that. But they

continued the relationship. There were unnamed gifts and such.

That affected our marriage and even our intimacy...

Let's keep this from Shobhitha at least till you get home.

Once we get there, we'll tell her in a calm manner.

If she suddenly hears about this, in her present state

she may find it difficult to handle.

If you like, one of us can stay at your place tonight.

Please! But going forward

I will find my own solutions to all this.

The reason I didn't do it so far is that I hoped the torturing

would end at some point.

- But when certain limits are crossed... - Oh no! My phone...

- I can't find my phone. - What?

What...?

Shobhitha! Shobhitha!

- Shobhitha! - Honey!

Call the staff! We have to open this door!

Honey! Shobhitha!

- Shobhi! - Honey!

- Shobhi... - Shobhitha! - Honey!

- In here... - Excuse me...

Oh... take a look.

- Break it! - Oh God!

Oh no!

- Hey! Come here. - What is it, Sir?

Does that dead boy's father live here?

He sleeps here at night, Sir. All day he is at the prayer centre.

- Was it like that when the boy was alive? - No. Since he died.

- Call the old man and tell him to come here. - Ok, Sir.

Know this guy?

- Yes. That's the boy's boss. - Did he use to come here?

- Yes, he did, Sir. - Ok.

Ok. Thank you.

...a company that is deep in financial trouble...

- The owner of the company is also part of the team. - Hello

- I suspect there was a personal motive... - Yes, Justin?

Vidya, I checked with the lab where Milan did his blood tests.

He's only been there the first two times.

After that, he hasn't had a test done in any of their labs.

Which means after the first two, all the results he uploaded

were created by him. Including the one from day before.

They're fake. He hasn't been taking

any of his medicines, Vidya. He's been fooling us!

- Let me take a look. I'll call you back, Justin. - Ok.

We have nothing to lose now. He shouldn't be able to freely walk!

He was torturing my daughter!

If I have to do this in person, I'll do that as well! Got it?

- We'll do it. - I just need your support. - Of course!

Whatever the consequences, I'll take care of it.

- We are with you. - I'll talk to whoever I need to.

- Excuse me, Sir. - Ok then.

Sir... I will handle this.

She repeatedly banged her head on the wall.

She has deep bruises on her forehead because of that.

We feared there would be a fracture in her skull.

Fortunately, that has not happened.

There is also no bleeding or injury to the brain.

- You're a doctor, aren't you? - Yes.

It is deliberate self-harm.

We have informed the police. For now, we will observe her.

If there are new symptoms, we can repeat the CT.

- Is she conscious? - Of course.

She is fine. One of you can go in and see her.

Ok, then.

May I go in to see her?

Please!

With this press meet, the only person Sajin has hurt

is himself.

Within 24 hours, he will know the consequences.

He will not harass you again.

He will never raise his voice again.

Because, Team EYES is more intelligent than Sajin Zachariah.

What he did was beyond his powers as a Collector.

The Collector has pointed fingers at the Police Department.

We should give a fitting reply.

His press meet was at 10.

Before 5 o' clock, we will counter it.

- Harish... - Sir!

Would you like to represent the Department at the press meet?

- Definitely, Sir. - Ok.

This is our reply. With solid evidence.

Did you see Hemant the night he died?

- I did, Sir. I came here around 7. - Ok.

We talked for a bit.

And then I returned to the prayer hall.

- Was there anyone else here at that time? - No, Sir.

You sleep at the prayer hall?

Yes... I used to sleep there. Now...

after his death... at night...

- I sleep here. - Why is it

that you did not live here with your son?

- He did not like me, Sir. - Why?

That was my wife's doing.

She fed him all kinds of stories about me.

Your wife... the one who ran away with a driver?

- Yes. - When did that happen?

That was a long time ago, Sir. He must have been

around 7 or 8 at the time.

I see. Ok.

He said he was at the prayer hall at the time of the incident.

There are witnesses for that. And whatever he said now

was what he said then too.

- Vinu, come here a second. - Sir.

Help me lift this.

- This seems new. - Yes, Sir.

The tiles came loose during the fire. Even otherwise

most of the tiles are loose.

Why would he change just these 9 tiles?

- It looks expensive. - Yes. - And laid by inexpert hands.

Didn't Abhiram tell Tanvi that he paid

- 2 lakh rupees to Hemant? - Yes, Sir.

- That money wasn't found, was it? - No.

- Vinod! - Yes, Sir.

Good evening.

The allegations made by Collector Sajin Zachariah against

the Police Department and the EYES team, will be

thoroughly addressed. That is the purpose of this press meet.

This is the report submitted on the 23rd of May

by the EYES team. Six days before Sajin Zachariah's press meet.

It contains their evaluation of his condition.

We also have the digital evidence of their emailing it to us.

According to EYES, Sajin Zachariah has

narcissistic personality disorder with mood features.

I will read out some relevant portions from the EYES report.

"We are convinced that Sajin Zachariah will not cooperate

with the evaluation and treatment protocol put forward by EYES.

Subsequent to our interactions with him,

these are the findings we have arrived at.

Sajin Zachariah, who displays extremely manipulative behaviour

will continue his efforts, directly and indirectly

to humiliate his wife.

He could go to any extent for that.

It could take the form of a live video or a press meet.

He views the members of EYES as his enemies and therefore

may try to insult and discredit them as well.

Such individuals often display

a high level of self-interest which can cause him to

try and establish himself as the victim.

Within the next month, there is a high probability

that he will act as said above and our conclusion is that

unless he is subjected to appropriate treatment

Sajin Zachariah will continue to make dangerous moves

against his wife and her family. Keeping that possibility in mind

we suggest the following treatment protocol for him."

That's EYES for you, ladies and gentlemen.

How's work at the moment? Have a lot of travel?

Not much. Just in and around.

You can check this and find out, can't you?

We don't check unless there is a reason to.

- For now, we don't have a reason in your case. - Oh!

Really glad to hear that.

- That doesn't mean you can stop your medicines yet. - Oh no!

See? Right here!

Do you feel like the medicines are making a difference?

I can't be sure. But I think

I don't act as impulsively as before.

Maybe... I am a bit calmer than before.

You must have heard that Ritika is in a relationship.

Is it? Oh. I...

- I didn't know that. - It was all over the media.

I thought you'd have heard from your circles.

No, no. I mostly have commitments with a travel magazine right now.

So I miss out on the gossip.

- Uh... is she married? - No.

- She is getting engaged. - Cool.

That's great!

Ok. Next month, first week, please come down to Kochi.

- We need to meet in person. - Sure.

- Is it relating to the treatment or...? - Basically, yes.

But also, we want to run some tests in our lab here.

- You mean blood tests? - Yes.

Ok. What are they for?

Just a routine test. We want to do a comparison

with the tests you have done there. Not a big thing.

- It will just take a day. - Oh... ok.

- Is there anything else, Milan? That you want to say? - Mmm...

Nothing. Is there anything else you want to ask me?

No. Anyway...

I'll see you next month. Take care.

- You too! - Bye. - Bye.

- He didn't ask who Ritika's boyfriend is? - No.

Guess he is trying to show that he doesn't care.

That's the way he was trying to present it.

Even when we were discussing his medicines

he was a little overly casual.

By now he would also have started assessing

our meeting today.

Sometimes he is more intelligent than us.

That's why he uploaded fake blood results

and tricked us all this while.

I am sure he knew exactly why

I was asking certain questions.

You had fired Hemant before he died?

- Yes. - Why?

He had started to get distracted at his work.

Did you pay him a compensation when he left?

- I did. - How much?

- Twenty five thousand rupees. - But that is not

what you told your fiancee.

- Didn't you give him two lakhs? - No.

Then why did Tanvi say that?

I don't know, Sir. Our wedding was called off.

- Maybe she was angry about that. - Why was the wedding called off?

That was because... she was getting into some bad stuff.

There was a team called EYES. I am sure you know, Sir.

It had some police officers too.

She was part of it.

They would all get together in a flat.

I've been there too. They had men walking in and out of there.

No one would believe me if I say how it really was.

That was the reason I broke off that relationship.

Weren't there two police officers as well in that flat?

Sir, please don't take this the wrong way

- but they were all part of it. - Abhiram...

during this time that we were talking here

our men have taken statements from your hotel manager

auditor and other staff.

The figure two lakhs is exactly what they are saying too.

Yes?

Ok.

I'll be right there.

- I need to go. - Sir! - You can continue.

- Come, Vinay. - Sir.

So which one is it? 25k or 2 lakhs?

Not that we have any doubts about the figure.

But you can decide whether you want to waste our time or not.

The skeleton belongs to a woman about 30 to 35 years of age.

There is a fracture in the skull.

Seems to have been hit with a blunt weapon.

That is most likely the cause of death.

How long ago?

Not less than twenty years.

(Devotional song)

So basically, you wanted to keep the drug dealings in your hotel

a secret and paid him two lakhs to keep quiet about it.

Right?

Can I use the washroom?

Do you know the names of the officers who were in the flat?

- One of them was called Justin. - Ok.

The other one was a lady officer.

I don't know her name.

Tina Sebastian. My wife.

By custom, as a husband, I should've

kicked your butt. But if I do her job for her

especially if I do it on her behalf, she wouldn't like it.

But don't count on me always remembering that theory.

So, in future, choose your words with caution.

Get out if you're done.

At the time of Hemant's death, no money was found in the house.

If, as you said, he was planning to go to Coimbatore with it

the money should've been in the house.

Either you're lying about giving him money

or else, you put an end to the man who knew all your secrets.

- What is it? - Nothing.

I just felt like seeing you. That's all.

What? Didn't have any prayers or some other fraud to do?

Are you going somewhere?

Yes. I am going to be in Coimbatore from now.

I have something set up there.

- Oh! So what about the job here? - I just told you I'm leaving.

When will you be back?

It'll be a while. Go now. I am about to leave.

So you're just going to lock up this house when you go?

- Yes. Why? - In that case, give me the key, son.

- I could live here. And I'll keep it clean. - Oh no!

- What? - I don't want it to stay clean because of you!

Forget the house. I don't want you anywhere near the premises!

- Come on, boy! It costs you nothing! - Get lost!

Hey! At least give me some money before you go.

I need money for medicines and stuff.

I don't even have money to get that lump in my stomach examined.

I don't have any money for you.

- Will you just get out? - If it wasn't money, then

- what were you just stuffing into your bag? - Yes, it's money.

I meant that I will not give any to you!

Of course you'd say that! After all your mother

slept around with that driver to make you!

Hey! No!

I'll finish you off with one kick!

Who do I have but you?

Once you leave

all I have is myself.

I don't want the house.

All you ever do is abuse me. But even so

having you around was a relief.

Can I at least spend some time with you till you leave?

I can tell people that

when my son left for Coimbatore, I was there to see him off.

Son... what happened to me, shouldn't happen to you.

That's all I want to tell you.

I was still in my heydays when your mother

ran away with that... loser.

That's because you were good for nothing.

If I have a woman

she is either going to live with me

or she won't live at all.

So what about that girl from the supermarket?

She tossed you aside like a used rag, didn't she?

She must have found someone else.

Want to bet on it?

How will she be with someone if she isn't alive?

What do you mean?

Look...

I have to warn you

the police may come looking for me.

They may ask you questions.

Don't tell them I went to Coimbatore, alright?

Just say that I... went off somewhere.

- Say you don't know. - Why would the police be looking for you?

Sometimes I think

you are right about that lorry driver being my real father!

My father can't be a loser

who had his wife taken away from under his nose

and did squat about it.

Anyone can make tall claims.

- I can do that too. - That's where you and I are different.

You can only talk.

- I will actually do it. - Do what?

The other day I was questioned by the police.

- Want to know why? - Why?

For buying petrol!

That's what I mean. On my way to Coimbatore, I'll make a halt.

I should make use of that petrol, shouldn't I?

You are truly a man today!

You are going to do what I couldn't.

Burning isn't enough for women like her.

But son...

We should give her one last chance.

You know why? Brother Saju says

we should forgive a person seven times for their sins.

- Don't give me that nonsense, ok? - Hear me out!

Ok, then. Speak.

What if she is just waiting for your call

to apologise to you?

You haven't called or spoken in a while, right?

What if she was too scared to call you? Huh?

All said and done, you two were in love.

When such people get married, their home will be heaven!

Why do you have to go live in Tamil Nadu

when you have such a good house right here? Go bring

her home, son! I will conduct your wedding!

As I said, give her one last chance.

If she still sticks to her nonsense

I will come along with you... to set her on fire!

Here.

Give me your phone. I'll call her for you.

I don't...

I don't need your help for that.

I'll call her myself.

Hey... Varsha...

Whatever happened till now is done and gone.

From today... we are going to start our life together. Ok?

And you know... that day when I hit you...

You are my wife, aren't you? You are mine!

Don't I have the right?

Who else would I...fight with and love?

You know what we should do, honey?

We need no celebration or ritual...

Forget all of that! Let's just get married!

And let's start living together!

We can bring your mother here.

It will be just us... our home... and our lives!

No ba**** will be allowed

into that.

Hello?

Hello, Varsha!

What happened, son?

- She... dared to cut my call! - What?

- Yes! - She cut the call? - Yes!

Call her right now! Make it a video call!

I am sure she has someone there! That's why she cut the call!

When they get horny, these kinds will invite anyone in!

Call her! Don't let her get away with it!

Here you are, still dripping honey over her

and there she is...! Call her!

Go on! Call!

Answer!

Answer the call!

Come on! Come on! Come on!

Answer! Come on!

You dare... to cut my call?

Get this straight!

Don't ever imagine you can dump me and live happily ever after!

I won't allow it!

I want to know right this second!

Will you come with me or not?

Open your mouth and speak!

Huh?

Don't you know how much I love you?

That isn't enough for you? What more do you want?

If you think you can dump me... Varsha...

I am warning you...

You will regret it!

You really think you can lead a happy life without me?

Don't even dream of that!

I won't allow it!

I see! So

you had someone else there, didn't you?

Who is he?

What f**ing son of a b** is that?

You were making a fool of me, weren't you?

You wh***!

So that's why you didn't want me anymore!

You had another man on the side and you...

I'll show you what I can do!

I'll... show you... what I can do!

Why did you do it?

I wanted the house and property.

My wife and I used to live there.

I told her parents to register it in my name. As dowry.

But her father listened to her and put it in the boy's name.

Whose body was it that we found buried in the house?

- My wife's. - How did you kill her?

- Hit her on the head with a hammer. - And then you

told everyone she ran away with a lorry driver. Right?

There was something going on between them.

If she hadn't died, she would've taken the boy and gone with him.

So you killed your wife and son to get the house?

- He was not my son. - Then why did you

go to Varsha's house and spoil their relationship

by talking to her mother?

I couldn't bear to see him happy.

- I wanted to destroy it. - But

aren't you a part of a prayer group?

And yet... how could you kill someone?

It is because I was in the prayer group

that no one suspected me till now, isn't it, Sir?

Praise the Lord!

I wanted to tell you the whole story myself.

But I guess you've already heard everything.

More or less. IG Vinayachandran called Ayesha.

The suspicion about Abhiram was the only thing you got wrong.

But because of that suspicion, we were able to

solve two murders that would otherwise stay hidden forever.

But more important than all that

is the prediction made by your team and the software

that Hemant was not likely to commit suicide.

Just as you thought, Hemant bought the petrol for Varsha.

If Mohanan had not killed him that night

- he would've killed Varsha. - No.

Because we were with Varsha at that time.

We, EYES! He would not have laid a finger on her!

Mr Sajin Zachariah...

Besides what you said in your press meet

is there anything more you would like to tell us?

No.

What you did was clearly character assassination

and that too on a public platform.

Your conduct was not becoming of the position you hold.

You tried to destroy your wife's career

and for that purpose, misused your professional power.

More than once.

We have evidence for that.

Based on the EYES report and our discussions on it

with doctors and psychiatrists

we have come to the conclusion that

you have a serious behavioural abnormality for which

you are required to undergo treatment.

The prediction about you made by the EYES team

proves that fact. For now,

to continue with the job you hold, in this manner,

- you are unfit. - So, with immediate effect

you are required to go on leave for a year

and submit to treatment under specialist doctors as recommended

by us. That will be our recommendation to the Government.

We hope you have understood us.

Absolutely not, Sir.

I don't agree with anything you said.

And I don't consent to any such treatment.

I don't think you really have a choice in the matter.

I do, Sir.

I'm resigning from the Indian Administrative Service.

Yes, Ayesha. I was just looking into it.

I think we've lost him.

He hasn't reached his house yet. There is no need to be scared.

We need to be alert, that's all.

The message has gone to all stations.

Till he is traced, our people

will be on location with you.

This is frustrating, Sir!

This one guy is causing us so much stress and strain!

Can't you drop this psychology and psychiatry stuff

and just put him in jail?

As per Ritika's complaint, whatever he has done

is not enough to deny him bail.

Even if he gets remanded, he will still get bail pretty fast.

What they are trying for, is a permanent solution.

And so is the police department.

What do you want me to do, Sir?

According to EYES, it may not be just you, Ritika.

He could be targeting Aryan too. We can't be sure.

We need you both to move out of the hotel you are staying at

to a place we will suggest.

For now, no one should know where that is.

- Not even the movie crew. - That will be difficult - Aryan!

We won't run away out of fear of some random guy!

I know how to protect myself.

And to protect Ritika too.

We have no doubts about that. We watch your movies.

But just so you know

Milan recently spent some time in a village in North India.

A place that is notorious for illegal gun trade.

It's likely he is now in possession of a gun.

The place you suggest...

it should be a place with facilities.

Sure.

It's a busy time for us. That's why I came alone.

The rest of the team are in different places on work.

He has signed the divorce papers.

Something he said he would never do!

He is leaving.

I heard he got some placement in Geneva.

It's only when I heard that, that I could be sure of this.

Even if he quits from the Service,

he can do a lot of harm, just being here.

If he created any more trouble, I swear

I would've gone back to my student leader days!

I considered it many times!

If he wants to work abroad, this has to go smoothly.

That is now his need more than anyone else's.

So... it is over. Right?

Sajin's perfect world was based on his powerful position.

And Shobhitha was just his trophy wife in that picture.

If he agreed to the treatment

it would be like admitting that he was mentally unstable.

That is why he resigned.

For him, the entire situation has changed now.

That world and those characters no longer exist.

In his new place too, he will continue to be the same.

But yes... for Shobhitha, it's over.

After a certain age, we were rather scared of Milan.

We had a feeling that some time he might

end up hurting my husband or me.

Many nights, we stayed awake

due to the fear that he might do something to us.

But later we understood, it was not towards us

but towards our daughter that his hatred was directed.

To his little sister.

He always continued to love us.

He believed his sister

came in between us and him.

I always feared he might try to

get rid of that obstacle.

I still do.

When we were not around, on many occasions

he has tried to hurt her.

(Justin) We are looking all over for Milan.

We haven't reached him yet but he is under surveillance.

See, I was watching Milan's mother's statement.

There is something she said. Milan never hurt them.

He never even tried to hurt them.

His enemity was towards his sister.

He believed it was because of her that his parents

could not pay any attention to him.

So it was her that he used to try to hurt.

If that's true about Milan - and this is just my feeling -

would he really try to hurt Ritika?

Wouldn't he try to target the one he believes

is standing between him and Ritika?

I mean, Aryan alone?

I think you have a point, Tanvi. He doesn't see her as an enemy.

- So it is... - But no stalker sees his victim that way.

They are in love with the victims and still end up killing them!

Milan is not an ordinary stalker, Tina.

He is delusional. He thinks

he and Ritika have always been in a relationship.

And Aryan is a disturbance who came between them.

So he will definitely try to get rid of that disturbance.

And he won't accept any help to do it.

He is someone who wants to take revenge on the enemy by himself.

He wants that control. That power.

He wants to win.

Something... that will break his perfect plan...

Only such a move... will get him flustered.

Just a minute. In that case, isn't there something

standing in between Ritika and Milan, I mean

according to Milan, something that is stopping him

from even meeting Ritika? A bigger reason than Aryan?

EYES?

Where are you off to? Who do you want to meet?

Where are you from?

Let's go, shall we?

EYES!

You guys spoiled it for me, man!

The beautiful relationship I had with Ritika -

you guys destroyed it!

We were so good!

You blew up the tiny issues that we could've sorted out.

Medicines... treatment...

That's why she is now with someone else.

Not because she wanted to.

She needed support.

And I was there for her.

But you destroyed that.

So...

this is for whoever is responsible!

To make it clear, this is for the leader of EYES.

For the boss - Ayesha.

And then for the young superstar.

Aryan!

Who just called?

- Ayesha... - What?

Ayesha...

Close the balcony doors.

Lock it!

Curtains.

Close all the doors and lock them.

Take the keys too.

Keys.

Hold this.

Come.

Go and stand over there.

This is where I'll shoot her.

Point-blank.

It's simple. Ayesha comes.

I kill her. And I go.

I know I'll not escape.

I'll get caught. But it's ok.

At least you won't win.

Or... is EYES smarter than me?

This is your chance to prove yourself.

But my bet is on Milan Shekhar.

So... let's invite her.

Call her back.

Ayesha.

Tell her to come here.

Give some professional reason.

Come on.

Right now you're alone here.

So don't try to be smart.

It's my game. All the way.

Speaker.

(Ayesha) - Yes, Tanu? - Ayesha Di...

I have some more work here.

Priyan's counselling details from yesterday...

I need to mail that to the IG. Priyan's.

I have some doubts about that.

Could you please come to the flat, Ayesha Di?

Ok. I'll come.

Go.

Go on.

Come.

Come in, Ayesha.

(Ayesha) "He wants to take revenge on the enemy by himself."

"He wants that control. That power."

"He wants to win."

"Something that breaks his perfect plan...."

"Only such a move... will get him flustered."

Let go of me!

(Ayesha) "Stalkers are not our enemies."

"Our mission will be complete only when they get better too."

"We are happy for Ritika, Varsha and Shobhitha."

"But we are also hopeful about Milan."

"When he returns after two years of treatment,"

"we are sure... there will be changes in him."

There are a lot of cases still being reported.

We have a lot of work ahead of us.

But before that, we have a request to you, Sir.

When you get a complaint of this nature, don't let

the solution be limited to just a warning.

If we give it due seriousness, we'll be saving a lot of lives.

Sure, Ayesha. You and the team are the start of that.

EYES is now past the trial period.

You will need more manpower and more teams going forward.

Because I'm thinking, all over the state.

And one more thing.

If you want, you can make changes to your team.

Your wish.

As you said, we will need more people.

But the core team will remain the same.

Vidya, Tanvi, Tina

Justin and Ayesha.

- Hello. - Hello, Vidya.

Your trial is over. Your software will now go big.

Really, really big! Congratulations!

I'll call you later.

It's Jessy.

Hello.

(Jessy) Chechi... I need your help.

We are here.
