Yes...

Yes, Mom.

Yes...

I am just doing that.

Yes...

Consider it done.

Okay.

Whichever way you say.

Can I call you back after I am done?

Yes. Yes.

Forgive me, please.

Forgive me.

Forgive me, please. Forgive me.

Don't stare at me like that.

Don't stare at me.

Close your eyes, please, please. Close your eyes.

It's me.

It's me. You trust me, don't you, sweetheart.

You trust me. It will take only a second.

Almost... It's done.

It's done. It's done.

Forgive me.

- Forgive him. - Come sir.

What is this insanity?

This game? What is all this?

Whatever it is, sir.

We'll have to play it to save the children's lives.

And maybe we'll even get some extra time to find the kids.

So you want us to handover the Skeleton Case to you.

The kidnapper has already assigned the case, sir.

I need your permissions.

Sure.

Thank you.

Sir, I've texted you the photographs of the sketches.

- And his ring which is in evidence... - You won't find anything in that.

Sir, do you think he will actually kill the kids.

He can do anything.

Khushboo, check all these bus numbers on your app.

And check which are the common bus stops.

Okay, sir.

- Awasthi. - Sir.

Take the sketch artist to Romil.

Romil who?

The child whom we saved yesterday.

The kidnapper is playing games with us.

Someone's definitely helping him outside.

Okay, sir.

Sir, we're very short on time.

We should take the help of the local people.

If anyone can give us any information about the kidnapped children...

...we should announce cash prize for them.

Okay. I'll fast track the information.

Sir, Nirmal Nagar Bus Stop. Common stop on all the routes.

- We should go. - Yes, sir.

Abhay.

We'll keep the local force on stand-by.

They might come in handy when we need them.

Sir...

One more thing, sir.

If we can access the private IP of this CCTV footage from STF...

...then we can keep an eye on him 24/7.

Sure.

Thank you.

Sir.

Wait.

Let me make one thing very clear right now.

Our mission right now is to save the children.

We don't know how long that will take.

But until we don't you can forget about your family, sleep, hunger, thirst.

If anyone has any problems then they can get off right now.

No questions will be asked.

No, sir.

No, sir.

Let's go.

According to recent new STF has announced 50,000 reward...

...to anyone who gives information about the kidnapped children.

And another crime's been reported from the outskirts of the city.

STF has found a dead body from Nirmal Nagar.

Whose body this is or how old is it...

...we haven't received any such details yet.

We'll be back soon with more information on this case.

This is Sonam Khanna will be back again with only the truth at any price.

Sir, the body's been excavated.

Where is Ms. Sethi?

Didn't anyone tell Ms. Sethi this is urgent?

She's in Delhi for a conference.

Her flight's delayed. She will be here any minute.

Give me the gloves.

Sir, male or female. What do you think?

It's a female.

Look at this hip bones.

Boys have smaller and more tapered.

But in girls it's longer and round.

Minor?

She has a wisdom tooth which grows after the age of 16.

She is an adult.

Hand me the pliers.

She has a prosthetic teeth.

Bag.

There's a serial number on the screw.

If we can trace it down the victim can be identified.

But sir, we'll have to inquire with every dental surgeon in the city...

...to trace this serial number.

Don't worry.

Local Police will give you all the help you need.

Instructions will be passed on to every Police Station.

Sorry, my flight got delayed.

That's okay. Ms. Sethi, just a second. Take these.

There are fracture marks on the skull here.

Could that be the cause of death?

Sir, we can only determine that after an X-ray.

We don't have time for an X-ray.

Bring the magnifying glass quickly. And the brush.

No, no, no...

This fracture is only partial...

...and the wound has healed to an extent.

These three teethes here are prosthetics as well.

Screwed in.

The fracture occurred considerably before the death.

That's why the wound has healed...

...and the prosthetic surgery was performed later.

You should be construction.

If a complex surgery like this has been performed in Lucknow...

...then it would've only been done in two hospitals.

Khushboo, you go to Damodar Hospital.

We're going to St. Teresa.

Ms. Sethi, time of death is most important for us.

- Urgent. - Yeah.

Come on.

Go ahead, Ms. Sethi.

I've run preliminary tests.

I can't be 100% sure but this body was buried there for five years.

Okay, thank you.

I needs records for all the dental surgeries performed in 2014-2015.

This is a hospital, not a beauty parlour.

We can't let you see patient's records like this, sir.

Nurse, this patient died 5-years-ago.

Her records won't matter to her or the doctor.

Look sir, I am just an employee here.

If you have a warrant, you have permission.

Do you have a warrant?

Yes, Khushboo.

Sir, we checked all the records in Damodar Hospital but found nothing.

I guess the victim's surgery was done in St. Teresa Hospital.

Nurse, where's the washroom?

Khushboo, I've found the victim.

Suman Verma.

She was 33.

Five years ago she underwent facial reconstruction surgery.

As well as a dental procedure.

Her husband used to abuse her.

So there must be a case of domestic violence as well.

Husband's name isn't mentioned here.

Even the address is of victim's parents.

But we'll have to check all the domestic violence cases before this surgery.

We can get the case files from the Police archives.

You know what, tell Awasthi to get there.

And you too.

We're coming too.

Sir, we've a lead.

We're going to the Police Headquarters.

We'll need at least 20-30 officers from the local force.

Sir.

I had a hard time convincing Romil and the doctor.

But the child is terrified.

He starts crying on hearing about the kidnapper.

Sir...

Sir, any lead about the bus or the bus driver?

It was pointless, Abhay.

We checked all the CCTV footages.

But found nothing.

No clue about the driver as well.

But his background is clear.

Any further developments?

Sir.

Husband's name is Surender Verma.

He was 35 when the case was registered.

Suman won the case and he was sentenced to 7-years.

So Surender is in jail right now.

Could it be he killed the wife for putting him behind bars.

Sir, even after proven guilty...

...Surender never accepted the domestic violence charges.

She claimed it was a ruse by Suman and her boyfriend.

Maybe he hired someone to murder us.

The kidnapped gave us 12-hours to solve the case.

But if Surender's the murderer...

...then he's already serving his sentence in jail.

And anyway it wouldn't have taken us 12-hours to find him.

The kidnapper knows that.

Meaning the murderer is someone else and we have no leads.

Could be he screwing with us.

He's killing them and sending us in circles.

Maybe that's why he knew where the dead body is.

Mr. Awasthi, if this case was so easy...

...the kidnapper would've never assigned it to us.

And why did he promise only one child in exchange.

No one knows this female died 5-years-ago, except for the kidnapper and now us.

But her parents definitely knew that she went missing 5-years-ago.

They must have filed her missing person report.

Let's start by finding that file first.

Sir.

- Khushboo. - Sir.

Meet with her parents.

And check Surender's backstory as well.

Also check whether her parents know about the boyfriend theory.

Sir.

Babloo. Where are you?

What is this?

Do you have butterfingers that you took so long?

I can see...

You haven't been taking proper care of me now.

Mom, if I wasn't looking after you...

...then how would you still be alive.

I am not alive because of you.

It's the miracle of my forefather's remedies.

Fine, fine.

What will it take to close your eyes?

This blood must be nearly over.

This is the last stock.

It's been a year since Swati.

And the full moon night is coming up again.

Swati?

Oh yes...

Isn't Swati the same girl who dumped her 8-month child in the trash for your sake...

...and was ready to elope with you.

Yes, Mom.

See, didn't I say.

If you go dressed as a female...

...this remedy will come in handy for you as well.

Of course, Mom, you're never wrong.

Hand it to me.

What did you do with her child?

Same thing she wanted to do.

Sir...

Found it. This is the file.

Hello.

Senior PI Sandeep Awasthi speaking from STF.

Is Inspector Kiran Dagar still posted there?

Okay, okay. Alright.

Sir.

This is the file.

The missing report was filed in Nirmal Nagar.

And the investigating officer is Kiran Dagar.

Is she still posted there?

She is, sir, but she is on a leave.

Her mother is ill.

Call her.

Sir, let me see her number.

It's switched off, sir.

Why did she close the case in two days?

Find her address and send me.

- We'll talk to her. - Yes.

"The Lord's descended to our courtyard..."

How long are you going to stay awake, Babloo?

Almost done, Mom.

Where does this one live?

Remember the petrol pump near the Gurdwara.

That's where she lives.

Does she love you as well or it's just...

No, Mom...

What can she do for you?

She's prepared to poison her husband.

What spell do you cast on all of them?

I don't do anything, Mom.

She's the one who does all.

It's the magic of your remedies.

Mom...wouldn't it be so easy if I was a girl?

Come closer.

Come closer.

Here's an advice.

You never let me realise that I don't have a daughter.

Who could it be at this hour?

Keep lying down, Mom I'll check.

Inspector Kiran Dagar.

Yes?

Abhay Pratap Singh. From STF.

Sorry for coming at this late hour but this is important.

Yes, yes, everyone knows you, sir.

Come in.

Five-years-ago you were handling a missing case.

I've some questions about it.

Come in, sir.

Come.

Sorry, sir, the house is in a mess.

Please take a seat. I'll get you some water.

No water. I am in a hurry.

A missing report was filed in your Police station on 12th March 2015.

Suman Verma.

But you closed the case in just two days.

Why?

Sir... can you please speak softly.

My mom is not well.

She is resting upstairs.

Water.

Why did you close the case?

Can I take a look, sir?

Please sit.

Yes, sir. I was investigating this case.

Her clothes and jewellery were missing.

And we also found a letter which she left next to her phone...

...in which Mrs. Verma stated that she is willingly leaving everything behind...

...to make a new beginning.

We even matched her handwriting, sir.

Look.

Since she wasn't a minor, we closed the case immediately.

Open and shut.

Any boyfriend or lover...

No, sir. We didn't stumble upon anything of that sort.

If you weren't in a hurry to close the case...

...you could have unearthed a couple of more things.

I am on the Police force, sir, not STF.

We don't have the luxury of time.

Every day 15 petty cases are registered.

Theft, pick-pocketing, domestic violence, etcetera.

Why, sir? Has there been any development?

See you. Thank you.

Yes, Khushboo.

Sir, I am with Suman's parents.

They claim that Surender's lying and he got Suman killed.

And these poor people don't know about her boyfriend.

Get Suman's number from her Parents.

Check her call and text records and see if you find any lead for a boyfriend or lover.

Yes, sir.

We need all the missing reports filed between 2010 and 2015 in Lucknow...

...where the victims were females between the age of 20 and 35.

And their case files were closed claiming they eloped.

Understood.

It's urgent.

Where is Awasthi?

Sir, we found three similar cases like Suman Verma from 2013-14 files.

Sir, do you think we'll get a lead on the killer from these files?

Until Suman Verma's body wasn't found everyone thought she was missing.

Meaning she was still alive.

No one imagined that she might be dead.

The note she left behind.

History of exploitation and abuse.

It's very easy to kill her.

Whoever did this...

...this wasn't his first planning or execution.

He's done it before.

And if he's done it before he might have done it again.

Give me a minute.

Mr. Awasthi, Suman's phone records?

I'll get it done. But first sir...

Sir, you think there's a link between these two cases.

Maybe not the case, but definitely between the case files.

This...Radhika Gupta's case.

Sarita Vihar, 2014.

Investigating officer Sudeep Tyagi.

And in 2015 Suman Verma, Nirmal Nagar.

Investigating officer Kiran Dagar.

The handwriting on both the reports is the same.

Look closely at the style of writing vowels.

Both the reports have been written by the same man.

The investigating officer can get the written work done by someone else.

They assign some constable to the job. Even we've done it a couple of times.

- Khushboo... - Yes, sir.

We need Police posting records of Sarita Vihar Police Station, 2014...

...and Nirmal Nagar Police Station, 2015.

Why Police posting records?

Do you suspect a Police officer?

Sir, right now we're only following a lead.

Whoever wrote this report...

...was a part of both these investigations.

Maybe even the crime.

Okay.

Kuldeep, Manpreet, come.

Sorry, sorry, mom wasn't feeling well.

It took me a while to give her medication before leaving.

What happened?

Kiran?

Kiran...

Do you know...

I used to crap my pant each time before making a sacrifice.

I would burst into tears.

Then only after mom would call and explain to me...

...my hands would stop shivering.

But once you tasted blood...

...I realised it's the biggest blessing one can get.

And nothing else can get one so high.

- Abhay. - Sir.

- Did you find more cases? - Sir.

These are two more cases similar to that of Suman Verma.

This one is Vidhita Ghosh in Sarita Vihar, 2011.

And Swati Malik in Nirmal Nagar, 2017.

The investigating officers in both cases are different.

But the handwriting of whoever wrote the report is a match.

Sir.

Sir, we found a number on Suman Verma's call records on which she called frequently.

But the number was disconnected five years ago.

That is after her death.

The number doesn't belong to her parents or any sibling.

I am trying to find the details of that number.

Sir...

Yes, Khushboo.

Sir, I found a common link in both the Police Stations.

Kiran Singh Dagar.

From 2009 to 2014 November he was a sub-Inspector in Sarita Vihar.

Then he got promoted and was transferred to Nirmal Nagar.

Anything else?

Sir, full name Kiran Singh Dagar.

Son of late Arun Singh Dagar and late Sarla Devi.

Wait a minute?

Both his parents are dead?

Yes, that's what it says here.

'Can you speak softly, sir?'

'My mom is not well.'

His first posting was in Ghaziabad in '99.

Later he got transferred to Kanpur in 2005.

And was transferred to Lucknow in 2009.

Any siblings or wife and kids?

No, sir. He was the only child. And bachelor.

Babloo.

Babloo.

Are you listening?

Babloo.

You're back.

All well.

An ancient remedy for women to stay young.

Pour your lover's blood on a golden platter on the 9th full moon night of the year.

Using this remedy makes one immortal.

Vidhita, Swati, Suman.

Is this why you killed them?

So you can be immortal?

Where is my mom?

What did you do with her?

Stop trying to be an asshole.

We know your mother died 12-years-ago.

No, mom isn't dead.

My mother is immortal.

She cannot die.

Mom. Where are you?

Where did you go, mom?

Mom...

What did you do?

Your mother gave you this remedy.

She told you to kill everyone.

Not my mom, our ancestors did.

Not just my mother.

All my ancestors are immortal.

There's another benefit of this remedy which they don't know either.

Drinking blood makes one strong and energetic like a lion.

What the fuck is this, bloody psycho!

Where is the child?

Why are you so stressed?

Time is not a problem anymore.

Show some excitement, man.

At least ask me how I found out about Suman.

Hey...

Sit down and listen.

When I sit down to create a puzzle...

...I can see the puzzle clearly.

I remember everything.

Wherever this guy was posted, women started disappearing.

I read it once, read it twice and it was so obvious.

And I thought to involve you.

It would be fun.

Even you know

I am not interested in your stupid bullshit.

But I am only listening because its a part of your stupid game.

Just tell me where the child is.

This...

This...

This! See.

See that.

That's why there's a difference between you guys and him!

This is what I want. This...

This is what I want.

This is what I want.

This is the Abhay I want.

Who can permanently eliminate this disease?

Without caring about the Law.

We've a lot of time on hand.

I mean I do.

You...have only 45 minutes.

Open. Quickly.

- Did you write down the numbers? - Yes.

A1Z26I.

Yes. Milestones.

- L U C K... - Lucknow.

N - 14...

G U R A

Guramba.

C 3...

Yeah.

Lucknow 14 Guramba 3.

Meaning 14 kilometres from Lucknow, 3 kilometres from Guramba.

Basaha.

Yes, sir.

Inform the local Police Station.

Take an ambulance.

We'll go too.

Let's go.

How far have you reached right now?

Sir, Ambulance ETA 40 seconds.

Keep coming straight. You'll spot our vehicle.

We'll turn left, you must follow.

Follow. Follow.

Uncle.
