Original subtitles

[Bishan] 'As per the public prosecutor...'

'...the address where the police found the illegal weapons is...'

...21, Daantewala.

But they didn't feel the need to clarify that...

...it is actually a building and not a residence.

These illegal weapons have been found at the building...

...and not at the accused's residence.

So are you telling me there is no difference between the two?

[Bishan] 'Isn't the police trying to mislead...'

'...the court by doing this?'

Will the public prosecutor please explain to the court...

...if there is any difference between a building...

[Bishan] '...and a residence in a building?'

[Title Montage]

Sir, why was this found in your car?

This looks like a torn page out of a notebook.

It's from the Punjab Police notebook.

- Every policeman gets one. - So?

So why was this found in your car?

Why don't you ask your people who were checking my car for evidence?

May be one of them dropped it accidentally.

Judge Sahib, my people are professionals.

[Bishan] 'Inspector Kiran Sekhon...'

'...my car was with your people for 24 hours.'

Now, in those 24 hours how many people handled the car...

...is something only your people can tell you better.

Sir, what could my people have against you?

What animosity would they possibly have?

That sub inspector from the Model Town police station...

...who is currently serving a year in jail, whose case was that?

[Bishan] 'Mine.'

Just 5 months ago, the corrupt inspector from your police station...

...who was sentenced to 2 years...

...who do you think sent him there? It was me, right?

And you are saying...

...why would your department have anything against me?

[knock on the door]

Yes. Come in, Ruma.

This is Ruma.

She interned with me for 2 years after law college.

This is Inspector Kiran Sekhon.

- Senior Inspector Kiran Sekhon. - I know of her.

She is the lawyer of the boy who stole your car.

You must have finished Guddan's interrogation by now, right?

Why don't you swing by the police station for his status?

Alright, Sir. See you later.

Sir... Sir.

What should one do if an accused is not being allowed to meet with his lawyer?

- You should try one more time. - And if one has already tried?

Then one should try yet again.

Nobody can be kept in jail forever.

Have a word with your judge. He will put pressure on the police.

How will that help?

I am telling you, go appeal to your judge.

Sir, they are framing an 18 year old kid.

His uncle gestures him to keep his mouth shut in the court.

Sir, there is something which I am not getting.

Ruma, I am in bit of a rush right now.

We will speak about this later. Okay.

Sir, but there is definitely something fishy!

Abeer!

Abeer! Let's go for a drive?

What are you doing here at this hour?

It's lunch time.

Why don't you drive the car? Come on. Let's go.

[Bishan] 'Come on.'

'What are you in the mood to eat?'

'Tell me.'

This is your handwriting, right?

Yes, it's mine... but this...

So then how did this land up in the judge's car?

I am a Bhaiyya. Is that why you suspect me?

You have family in high places is that why you are acting cocky with me?

Madam, may I say something.

There are still a lot of Bhaiyyas left in this city...

...who are not gangsters.

Do you know a Shashi Tiwari aka Guddan?

No, I don't know any Guddan.

You haven't taken a day off in a long time.

Does this mean... are you suspending me?

- Yes, I am suspending you. - But Madam...

Feel free to call any one of your powerful relatives.

But don't show your face in my police station ever again!!!

Madam... Madam! Listen to me!

Yes?

Hey buddy, your dad is a big shot, huh?

The best judge in the world!

And you? You drive with caution, don't you?

Judge Sahib, recognize me?

I was just having a little chat with your son.

He's a sharp kid.

So look after yourself and your kid.

This...

Was this guy saying something to you?

Look...

Be mindful of who you speak to and what you say.

- Anything can happen. - What could happen?

Anything.

If someone bothers you or stalks you...

- Was he stalking us? - I am not sure.

But there is no need to engage in conversations with strangers.

Do you have any regrets?

About what?

Do you feel it would have been better if you had given me up to the police?

Drink your coffee.

Now, for a moment, let's assume that you are me...

...and there's this thief who has been caught red handed many times...

...and that thief claims to have never seen this car...

...but the owner of the car, who is a well-respected Judge of this town...

...says that he has seen this thief sneaking around his car.

Now if you are me, then who would you believe?

F****r, what are you staring at? Look at her.

What is she asking you? Who will you believe?

You were caught driving the car, weren't you? Hunh?

And you say you didn't steal the car?

Madam, he didn't steal it.

The car, all by itself, landed under his a**!

Calm down, Bhullar!

I want to see my mother.

- What's he saying? - Speak up!

- I want to see my mother! - You want to meet your mother?

I am here, right? What is the need to call your entire family then!

Look your mother, and father... all of them...

- I don't have a father. - Speak up!

I don't have a father. He's dead!

- Hello? - This is Ruma, Guddan's lawyer.

- Are you interrogating Guddan? -[Kiran] 'Yes.'

The law requires that he must have his lawyer present whenever he is interrogated.

It's only required if Guddan asks for a lawyer.

He asked for his uncle who is sitting right here.

Alright then tell his uncle to come and meet me. I am right outside.

His lawyer is here. She is waiting outside.

She wants to meet you.

Keep your mouth shut!

- Why have they called you? - What do you mean by that?

His mother can barely speak. He doesn't have a father.

Who would they have called if not me?

What are they asking him inside?

About the car... when and where was it stolen...

So they've remanded him for this nonsense?

Why are you getting mad at me?

I haven't put him there. Idiot!

If only you were competent enough, the boy would have been home by now.

Everyone wants to come in here and give their 2 bits of wisdom!

The car which has been stolen, which you say you didn't steal...

...that car hit a motorbike.

The person who got hit in the accident is Satbir Mudki's son.

He is in the hospital. He's dying.

- What has happened now? - Why did the judge remand him?

Something must have happened in the lock up.

A scuffle with the cops or something.

Anyways the judges here aren't particularly fond of the Bhaiyyas.

- Has he said anything? - I have already told you.

Pigs would fly before a Bhaiyya squeals in front of the cops.

Now you tell me one thing?

What's so special about that car that you had to do all this...

Why are you racking your brains?

- I am a judge. - And I am no idiot!

I am a CRPF officer.

And yet we are sneaking around like thieves in this barren wasteland.

Judge Sahib, either you come clean...

...or I will go to the cops and tell them what we've been up to.

- Okay. Go tell them. Go. - Good Lord!

Sir, you have done a lot for me.

But I can't see you in this state. I feel really sorry for you.

So can you please tell me, what has actually happened?

I have screwed myself over! That's what's happened!

On the Jalandhar - Ludhiana Highway, about 3-4 kms away...

- ...there is a speed trap. - There is no speed trap there.

It wasn't there earlier. Now there is one.

I take that route every day. There is no speed trap there.

I'm telling you there is one now!

- Okay. Fine. There is one. So? - So? So I was speeding.

I was doing at least a 150.

Just after the food plaza, there were cameras.

Later I got a call to confirm if the car was mine?

Now think for a moment, the upright Judge Bishan Khosla...

...who upholds the law, he himself was...

I told them, the car was stolen.

Do you think I'm an idiot?

For a silly little traffic rule you had to do all this?

A law is a law, Kashi.

My name is in consideration for the High Court.

It's a once in a lifetime opportunity.

I have waited 7 years for this.

And what you are calling a silly little traffic rule can destroy my career!

Sorry, Kashi.

Because of me you had to... Sorry.

That boy was supposed to make the car disappear.

But he got caught by the cops!

By the way, where did you find that lawyer?

- Why? What happened? - What happened?!

She's a sharp one.

If she stays on this case, she will take all of us down!

- I am going to get rid of her. - Kashi, please don't do that!

Oh really?

Kashi... Kashi.

Here... here... is some money.

Give it to that boy's mother.

Let her know, I can offer more, if need be.

Kashi!

[Sheel] 'Bishan!'

- 'Will you have some parathas?' - What are you doing here?

You like your parathas a little spicy, right?

So now what? Are you going to be here every day?

I am not here to fight.

- But this is my house! - Well, I paid for it!

Few fools continue to have...

...pickles from these plastic bottles!

My adorable grandson! Come on, eat!

They say that no one can make parathas like me!

Aren't they delicious?

So tell me... what all is going to happen on your trip?

- What trip? - It's a college trip... to Kasauli.

It's just overnight.

But with asthma? It will be cold there. Think about it.

No. You must go.

- When do you leave? - Tomorrow.

Would've been good to see the doctor once...

See the doctor for what? What's wrong with him?

Nothing as such. But what if something goes wrong... asthma...

When nothing's wrong then what is the need to see a doctor?

I mean... Abeer.

[Bishan] 'He's not a child.'

You know that smoking is not allowed in this house.

[Sheel] 'Where is the ashtray?'

Have a look at this. There is a post on this blog.

Look... our car...

Judge Khosla's car is knee deep in police investigations.

And why are they calling my car... your car?

And why is my car under police investigation?

I don't know. It's the police. They investigate.

Today, it's just on a blog. Tomorrow it'll be on TV.

- Who posted this picture? - I don't know!

You don't know? You are an idiot!

All this is happening because your name's in the High Court list.

Like always, you know it all!

I do know how much crap I went through when I became a High Court Judge.

And if one digs for dirt on someone, there is always something to be found.

- Even on you. - You're very concerned about me.

I'm concerned about Abeer!

You always seem to forget that you are not his mother.

And I will keep forgetting until I'm certain...

...that his father is concerned about him.

And what do I have to do to convince you?

You need to spend time with him. Talk to him.

And you think I don't do any of this?

If you did, then he wouldn't be like this.

Be like what? What exactly are you referring to?

You stay an hour away in Jalandhar!

I was also a judge!

You hear cases all day long, then come back home and work on the verdicts.

And then you're so tired, you crash.

[Sheel] 'I know what happened with Abeer's mother.'

[Bishan] 'If you know, then keep this knowledge to yourself!'

Stop landing up here and trying to control our lives.

- You just had one. - Yes I did.

And I'll finish the entire packet. What's it to you!

Look. Smoking kills!

You should be very happy about that!

- Good morning! - Good morning.

Last evening, your grandmother and I had a...

We've always had this equation.

I am used to it now.

When your mother was alive...

...she'd handle these tiffs between me and your grandmother.

Why are you trying to make conversation with me?

Is it because grandmother told you to do so?

Don't you ever feel anger towards your mother?

I feel it.

She just left us so suddenly...

...without giving any reasons, without saying anything, not even a letter.

- I still don't understand why. - Neither do I.

Why don't you cancel your Kasauli trip?

We will go somewhere, catch a film.

I will take a day off.

What is the name of that favorite food joint you like? The Mexican one.

Let's go there for lunch?

No, thanks.

Abeer?

- Yes. - Was is it really urgent?

Take a look at this blog!

- Isn't this your department's doing? - Oh God!

Sir, this seems to be written by a Simran Kaur.

Do you think I am a fool?

Will someone write a blog like this under their real name?

Sir, why will a cop write a blog like this?

Because they don't want me to get into High Court.

- And why would a cop not want you to get into... - Because me and the cops...

Just because you sentenced some cops and they are in jail?

No, Sir.

This is clearly someone who will benefit if you don't get into High Court.

Judge Punchhi.

If a performing monkey does not perform, would you still call him a monkey?

And... who could have given Punchhi these photos?

Hi. So, all ready for Kasauli?

Sir! That Kashi Samthar has fired me from the case!

- I know. - Then why didn't you tell me?

I spoke to their family. They want a local lawyer.

- And maybe you are... - What? Maybe what?

Just that you are a woman and maybe that's why...

Oh Sir! You taught us about equality of gender in Law College.

Now I have been fired just for being a woman and you have nothing to say!

Ruma, I am not your client.

If you want to fight... then go pick a fight with Kashi.

That Kashi is not my client either. That boy is my client.

And till he doesn't ask me to leave the case, I won't...

I don't want to get into an argument with you.

You are a good lawyer. I got you a case.

Now the client doesn't want you on the case, how's that my fault?

And you aren't the first lawyer to be kicked off a case.

In my court, lawyer on cases change every day.

Something is fishy, Sir!

What have I done that I am being removed from the case?

- Haven't I just told you... - No.

I am sure there is more to this.

Have you seen that boy? He is the same age as your son.

He's been beaten black and blue. No one gives a shit.

The biggest mistake a lawyer can make is...

...to get emotionally involved with their client.

Please stop lecturing me! I am not your student anymore.

Here look at this... see what the cops have done to him.

This is his photo before the remand. And this is two days after.

Why should I look at it? I don't want to see it.

[Amrita] 'It's really cold, isn't it?'

-[Student1] 'Really thankful to you.' -[Amrita] 'Nice place.'

[Student2] 'I told you.'

Girls, would you wait in the lobby? I will just join you all.

[Student 1] 'Okay, Ma'am.'

Abeer!

- Abeer, what are you up to? - Want some?

You do realize that you are harming yourself by doing this, right?

- I know everything. - You know everything, is that so?

Give me the bottle!

Abeer! Abeer! Leave the bottle, Abeer!

Abeer!

- Why are you like this? - Like what?

Why are you behaving like a stubborn child?

And why are you behaving like a loser? Tell me!

My mother is no more.

My dad doesn't give a damn about how I feel.

Don't leave me and go, please!

What's up with you, Abeer? Talk to me.

Abeer, don't cry.

Don't cry like that, Abeer. Please!

I am sure everything will be fine soon, Abeer.

Are you feeling okay?

Abeer!

Should I get you some water?

Abeer.

- Hello? -[Amrita] 'Hello... Sir...'

- Yes. -[Amrita] 'This is Amrita.'

'Abeer's sports teacher. Abeer has had a...'

- What... what happened exactly? -[Amrita] 'Abeer has had an asthma attack.'

-[Ruma] 'Hello.' - Yes, Ruma. Tell me.

- 'Did I wake you up?' - No, tell me.

I want to read something out to you.

This says...

Should an individual wants to dismiss his lawyer, he may do so...

...at any time without relating the reasons.

[Ruma] 'The dismissal will only be valid after the individual...'

...has made this known verbally and in writing.

- Are you listening? -[Bishan] 'Yes, yes I am.'

So under no circumstances can anybody but my client, terminate my services on this case.

So you can tell Guddan's uncle that even if he grovels...

...I will not let him get another lawyer on this case.

- Do you have something for me? - Do you have a name for me?

This time the investigation is confidential, Harman.

Is that so?

Since when is your investigation confidential for me?

It has become now.

I have seen a lot of bloodbath in the last 3 years.

I don't want any more.

It's my brother who's fighting for his life in the ICU.

And when I see him, I feel he'd be better off dead.

Who do you suspect?

How many times has the doctor stated that alcohol is dangerous for you!

- Abeer, I am talking to you. - Yes.

Did you blurt out anything to the teacher when you were drunk?

- No. - Are you sure?

You were not in your senses.

Maybe something slipped out?

Maybe, maybe it did. Something slipped out.

- Why didn't you carry your inhaler? - I don't know.

- So where is your inhaler? - I don't know.

Abeer, you said that after the accident you had used the inhaler there.

- I don't know. - Abeer, did you use it there or not?

I don't remember!

- Abeer, did you use it or not? Think! - Yes, I did!

- What is this? - I found this at the accident site.

You didn't answer my question.

- Do you suspect somebody? - The Bhaiyyas!

Which one of them?

If I knew who it was, they'd be dead by now.

Be alert.

[phone ringing]

- Harman? -[Harman] 'Yes.'

I know who ran your brother over.

Who?

Hello... hello!

[Harman] 'Hello!!!'
