Original subtitles

Sir, we shall send body for post-mortem if your examination is done

Sir, they are Martin and Salomi. Servants in this house!

They saw it first, sir. -Both of you, be out for a while

You said to be on leave today, sir

I’m on leave. But Jayaram Sir asked me to visit and go

This dead man is a bit popular artist, right?

Do you know anything about him?

I know him a bit. His name is Johnny

About two months back, he and his friend had a big fight with a real estate company

Few from both the parties were wounded in that fight

They filed a report -Ok

Later, few from the police station went there

I was on duty that day.

From how long are you staying here?

We are working here from five years, sir.

We are working here since Johnny’s mom died

What happened in the morning?

Doors were open by the time we came

When I brought coffee, Sir wasn’t there in his room

Later I saw him and started crying

He went and brought the Doctor

Yes Sir, Doctor confirmed that Johnny is no more

Doctor was here when I came. I took his statement

We can’t digest. We never expected this, sir

So, are you not staying here?

No sir, we stay in the colony nearby. It’s 2 to 3 Km from here

We leave arranging what Sir needs for night. He likes to be alone.

At what time do you daily come here?

We come by 6. Johnny is into cycling by then

He often doesn’t come home at night. House is all kept shabby.

He sleeps somewhere. Doors will be wide open.

He doesn’t wake up, if he closes the door.

He doesn’t open the door even when we repeatedly call

Doesn’t Johnny have parents?

His dad died when Johnny was about 6 years of age

His mom pampered him as he had no father

After some time, even his mom died falling sick

That affected Johnny a lot. It took long time to come out

That’s why his master Siva put us in work here

He taught Johnny to paint

And thus Siva sir and few painter boys in this colony are close to Johnny

All these boys had a fight with a company named Sri Sai here

There was a big fight as they drew some pictures and wrote on that company walls

We don’t know about any enemies of Johnny, other than those

Later, a girl stayed with him for about 3 months

Her name is Niharika. They both were always smiling and happy

We thought Johnny sir would marry her

She wasn’t here when we came and saw two weeks ago

When asked, Johnny sir said she left to Bangalore

Johnny seemed lost after she left

Then we saw Johnny sir from close while leaving

Then we saw some depression in Johnny’s face, sir

Does that have any special reasons?

A courier had come yesterday evening when we were leaving

I think that girl sent it.

Trace about these facts I’m saying.

Mr Siva, Niharika and Sri Sai Builders -Ok Sir

Yeah, I’m done Fathima. You be ready.

Fine, I’ll leave. I shall go with Fathima to a place urgently.

You take care of the rest. Call me if you have any doubts

Send the body for post-mortem after the formalities are done here -Ok

Enough to proceed after full enquiry if any relatives come down

Don’t let anyone come and cry at the body. Send everyone out

After all that, seal the place -Ok

I’ll meet tomorrow. I’ll call you later -Ok

Sir, don’t forget my daughter’s birthday party this evening

Come by 7 to 7:30 -Ok

Ok, bye -Ok!

Sir, Jayaram Sir -Yeah

Sir -What happened, Akbar?

Initial enquiry started sir. Aloshi is taking care of the rest

Ok! Media people already came to know about this

Before they give their version, we should have our view on this

I and Aloshi will do serious enquiry from tomorrow, sir

I think even post mortem report will come by then.

Ok, you leave now and we shall talk later -Fine sir

Antony bro, take their statement and send them -Ok sir

See you!

Did you think well and took the decision?

This is the first question we ask those coming for divorce

We can settle talking to each other if there are any issues

But, you don’t have any such issues, right?

Once again, think well

Ok! I’ve got no objection if you don’t like.

No madam, we came thinking well. We are good friends forever

We don’t have any issues in between us

Our friendship would continue the same even after the divorce

Fathima, don’t you wish to say anything? -No!

I already said, the decision is yours. I’ll do this as an advocate

But as a good friend, I’m saying it’s good not to go for divorce

Please file this case

Get down! Fathima, I’d be coming very late. You eat and sleep

Hi uncle -See, who is here

Hi baby, happy birthday -Thank you, grandpa

Take this, dear -Thank you

Brother -Oh, both are here

Why are you late? -Just a bit delayed.

Uncle, you have no diabetes right? -No way

But, Akbar may have it. He looks young, but is old

Fathima is there and she’d take care

Go to dad -Dad, I need two chocolates

This is the change due to a kid. What do you say?

If they didn’t decide on adopting this kid, they’d have been into

depression roaming around the hospitals

Those three are the example to state blood relation isn’t so important

Bonding and relation should evolve from here

We believe our children always cute.

You don’t need to use a thorn to pluck the thorn out

Anyway, let’s come to our topic

Make Aloshi do a brief enquiry.

All the media people contacting today would’ve given a shape to this case

So, what’s your initial thought about it?

We didn’t get clarity till now, sir.

It’s better not to say anything till we get post mortem report, sir

I too said the same with them.

My daughter said me about Johnny, when I started here

She had voluntarily to the exhibition done by Johnny

Johnny had done an extraordinary installation that day

But, I don’t remember to have seen such a known personality in our city circle

I feel his life style is a bit different

Yes sir, when asked even the servants said the same

Print reporter Manoj got to know this first and informed me

I met this Johnny few days ago, in a reception

There was a girl along with him. I don’t know about their relationship.

Johnny backed her up and scolded our JP sir and thus I remember this well

JP means Jaya Prakash, he wrote articles in Times magazine

He’s a bit famous amongst us.

Johnny fought with him that day and put acquisitions on him

Later, that girl took Johnny away by force

I think our JP was into some shock that day

I don’t feel there’s some big relevance in this

Based on the servants’ words, he was often in mood outs

This incident may have taken place in such a moment

We got to once see even the autopsy report

Get in, man -Me, sir -Just get inside -Ok sir

Look Akbar, we are genuinely concerned

Akbar, we can’t break few relationships so easily

There’s nothing we can’t change.

It is just 7 to 8 months since you married Fathima, right?

I know the matter.

What’s her name? -Janet!

You are unable to forget that Janet. That’s your problem, right?

Sir, I thought well and took this decision.

Do we still need a discussion into this?

It is needed, Akbar. Not just you and Fathima are involved in this.

Some of us came together and got you married, right?

Why don’t you remember that?

Not that I don’t remember, sir. This marriage itself is a mistake

That wasn’t from Fathima, madam or you.

It is my mistake to be struck unable to move, sir

It is better to understand that and correct, right sir?

Good, my foot! Look, there isn’t anyone not doing mistakes

If exist, they are great souls Akbar. Life should go on

Sir to be honest, unable to forget Janet isn’t the only problem

I don’t still understand why I separated from Janet, sir

That is my whole worry.

When you all said, I thought Fathima will be relieved and agreed for this sir

She isn’t a solution for my problem, sir. But, a big problem sir

I should go away from her and she should have a good future

We may not be good couple, but we are good friends sir

My foot! It won’t take long for good friends to be good partners

Listen to me. When you are of my age, not a person to be in your bed but

you need a good friend to share good and bad for few minutes

So, Fathima is your best choice. Got it?

Time to let go Janet has come. You think well.

Good night sir -Ok

See you, sir -Ok

JP said by Jayaram sir! Find if he’s in city or not -Ok sir

If yes, we must go and meet -Ok

Come home tomorrow in the morning -Yes

Ok, bye dear -Say bye -Bye

Ok, see you

“Did the sky shower when walked with you?”

“When love started” -Akbar! -Janet!

“Did life melt down?”

“Moonlight looked at us surprised like this”

“When you are with me as a couple, my dear”

“Moonlight looked at us surprised like this”

“When you are with me as a couple, my dear”

“You stole my heartbeat”

“You stole my heartbeat”

“Moonlight looked at us surprised like this”

“When you are with me as a couple, my dear”

“Moonlight looked at us surprised like this”

“When you are with me as a couple, my dear”

“Did the sky shower when walked with you?”

“When love started” -A boy is enough, right?

What’s the problem with a girl? -“Did life melt down?”

“Words from the lips are from the heart”

“They flourished like giving life”

“Words from the lips are from the heart”

“Love on you flourished like giving life”

“Some tunes heard when you’re with me”

“Great moments daily in dreams”

“Did the sky shower when walked with you?”

“When love started, did life melt down?”

“Did the sky shower when walked with you?”

“When love started, did life melt down?”

“Moonlight looked at us surprised like this”

“When you are with me as a couple, my dear”

“Moonlight looked at us surprised like this”

“When you are with me as a couple, my dear”

“You stole my heartbeat”

“You stole my heartbeat”

Even I’m surprised to know Johnny is so famous, sir.

I just came to know, sir

Sir, JP asked to meet after 3PM

Let’s go to Johnny’s house once -Ok

Antony bro, call Sudeesh and ask him to get key and file there

Also ask him to find about autopsy report and inform -Ok

Antony bro -Sir -What about post mortem report?

It hasn’t come yet, sir. Suraj will get it by afternoon

Sir, we got finger prints of four in Johnny’s house

Three from them have matched. Johnny, Martin and Salomi!

And the fourth belongs to a lady

That may be of Niharika. Confirm that and say -Ok Sir

Bro, please hold this cap

Aloshi -Yes sir -I think this is his diary

Courier that came while Martin was leaving

Bro, pack this diary and give

Case details are in this file, be careful

No problem, I’ll inform.

Sir, from our office! Jayaram said to be in office after 12

Even our post mortem surgeon informed to come there

What’s the time now? -It is 11 now, sir

Say, we are starting -Ok sir

Hello! -Aloshi, you once said about some event of Johnny in your presence

What was that issue?

I think that was an issue about some fraud baba, sir

Some people bashed him up, stripped him and semi naked posters on the wall

His men reacted to that and made a small issue -Oh!

Such people should get the same treatment, sir

Great! So, nothing happened after that?

Both the groups had a big fight and a few were slightly injured

What did you say, bro? -He later ran away adjusting his dress, sir

Great! Ok, give the cap -Sir!

Doctor, I wanted to meet you directly. Otherwise would’ve got report from these

I guess, we have something -Yes sir, we found something

He died because of poisoning. That too through mouth

We still don’t know what was that poison consumed

But, it looks like slow poison. Slow doesn’t mean it’d take time

It’s like a sedation. A smooth, effortless and painless comfortable death in a trance

My conclusion is that, this is 99% suicide

Is just this enough to say what you said is true, Doctor?

Not enough, they came to a second finding

Johnny was in his last days. Only one or two months was left in Johnny’s life

There was over matured malignancy in his brain

So, do you suspect he had brain cancer? -Yes!

What I understood was that, he had chances to live just for few more weeks

Possibility to commit suicide in fear of his death! So, I think that’s it!

Let’s inform the same to media. What do you say, Akbar?

Servants in that house have a good opinion on him.

I’m unable to believe, such a man couldn’t fight his disease and did this

Mentally depressed patient is in a way the same, Akbar

It isn’t right to compare his past life with present

If you guys have nothing more, shall I move?

Yes Doctor -Sir, here is the report

Thank you! -Doctor, one second

Were there any wounds or injuries on Johnny’s body?

Nothing relevant! Not many, but there were two three injuries

Here and there, they weren’t any big injuries. Just minor bruises!

They weren’t any fresh ones. -Ok Doctor, thank you

Thank you!

What Akbar, you look to be in some confusion?

Are there any loopholes in this theory?

Not loopholes, sir -Then what?

His servants said there was unique aura in his face while they were leaving

Not just that, a girl was staying from few days there

Based on that, I feel they both shared a good bonding

They stated that she left from there all of sudden

So, I feel this case would come to a point if we get that girl

If you feel that is needed, you please proceed

For now, I’d just say about the autopsy report to the press

Otherwise, they’d write as they like

Let’s give some work even to their brains.

You can go now -Ok sir -Yeah!

As per what Manoj said, that girl said by the servants and JP, we may get some lead

He said to meet this evening. -Is it? -Yes

Did any one come to claim the body? -None came till time, sir

I think he doesn’t have any close relatives, sir

There may be a chance of someone to claim from now

We shall go and meet JP - Ok

It’s better that he died. He took her to his house and made her die

He alone is the reason for my daughter’s death. That is the truth

You are saying about NIha, who stayed with Johnny right?

Did she commit suicide? When? -It’s been a weekdays, last Friday

Where? -Bangalore, in her house

So, did you say this to Johnny? -Why should I? Who is he?

Ok! By the way Mr JP, how do you know NIharika?

Mr Akbar, she is my niece. Daughter of my only sister

She was the girl I brought up. Not as niece, but as my own daughter

That scoundrel took her away. We’re yet to get out from that shock.

There’s nothing to say about that scoundrel

But NIha! We called her so from childhood. Niharika Banerjee!

Banerjee! That’s a Bengali name, right?

Yes, my sister Jayasudha got married to a Bengali.

Asutosh Banerjee! He is a Bengali writer.

They got introduced while studying.

He passed away when Niharika was 3 years old. That’s an accident

Later, they didn’t stay long in Kolkata.

Jayasudha got the lecturer post in Bangalore in Chemistry department

And so, she settled there.

Niha studied and was brought up in Bangalore

She was mostly serious, maybe because she just has mother.

She wished to be a writer like her dad from childhood

She gained interest in academics like her mother after finishing school

Then was Masters and PhD!

Did Niharika come here to stay for few days with you?

No! She had come here for few works in regards with PhD

Her research was in Industrial Chemistry

She was working here from two months at ICRISAT and stayed with me, right here

After that, she met him and went away from here

Didn’t you meet her after leaving from here?

I often saw her roaming with him

One day when I saw, asked her to come home

But, he didn’t like her talking to me. He dragged her away

This incident happened in between the party at Dreams hall, right?

Yes, how do you know that?

I know that you had fight with Johnny at a party

Did you meet Johnny, Niha or his friends anywhere?

No, I later came to know that she left to Bangalore

I think she came to know about his character

It seems she wasn’t like before afterwards. She closed herself locked in her room

And finally…

How did Niharika commit suicide? -By consuming poison

She didn’t come out in the morning, when seen she was in a deep sleep

It was all because of that idiot, sir. He killed her.

Relax JP, I’m sorry for your loss. It was an unwanted incident

But, we got to accept this. Whatever, we got to meet again after two weeks

We may need your help to solve this case. Ok? -Sorry!

It’s alright. Shall we leave? -Ok

Ramu, take Niharika’s Bangalore address from him -Bangalore? -Yes

I think we better keep an eye on him.

You have some connection in Bangalore, right? -Yes

Locate the station from Bangalore from this address -Ok!

Know about Niharika’s death details from them -Ok sir

Let’s know what they tell about this death -Ok sir

Sir, this is the diary.

You said about a friend of Johnny, that master -Shiva!

We didn’t get him. We got to know he doesn’t stay put anywhere

And that construction company, Sri Sai builders -Yes

If you get someone from that company, take an appointment for next week

But, don’t say anything openly. -Ok sir

Ok, you leave now. We shall meet tomorrow -Ok

Johnny, I know you’d be very disturbed there

I’m in 100 times more pain than yours here

You didn’t let me be with you and sent me away

Forget that, there’s a gift to make you happy along with this letter

You wanted to read my dairy without my knowledge, right?

This is that. I already said to give it myself when you are matured enough

to read and understand my diary

We had a small fight on the day we met, right?

This is a small feeling I had that time.

I felt that isn’t going to end with that day. That’s why is this letter.

This has the small fights, sweet memories and everything taken place in between us

Give a small rest for your sleep and read this completely

Rewind all these for once. You’d feel like seeing me after reading this.

You come down here. Your Niha in your memories…

Johnny, why are you so short tempered?

You are an artist. Why do you get angry instead of taking good criticism in cool way?

I understood that even your anger is a fake.

That’s why it doesn’t stay long.

I believe our friendship will last for a long time.

Hey, look there. -That one? -Yeah! -Huh!

It is so beautiful.

Come on, we shall go there and see

I don’t understand. You ruined Sunday evening. Did you bring to see this?

You said to be feeling bored at home. This is far better than shopping

You don’t like installations, right? Paintings are that way, go and see

Best! That is a painting understood by none.

Oh no, what are those blood stains?

You don’t say so. There’d be meanings even in those

Layers! Why not draw good sceneries or beautiful girls like us?

One is depression or scribbling, I just see only these two in that

What? Scribbling? You know the time taken to do that? Two months!

Two months and for this? Come on boss, amateurs may take even three months

You said some great art lover, what great meaning is there in this?

This isn’t anything to swallow like spoon feeding

Greatness from that can be understood only when seen with heart

This isn’t a place for those to do time pass and give waste comments -Johnny!

Why don’t you put a board for such people not to enter?

It was our mistake not to have put that up.

We expected people with minimum sense to attend this exhibition

Then, why did you put up this show? -Come on man, don’t fight

Enough of your scene, leave now -Feeling like he’s great

Why are you making mess there? See, there’s some problem. I’ll just be back

Come on, what’s this nonsense?

Hey, go back. -Hey, what’s this nuisance?

Move -Why are you shouting?

I’m speaking, right? -Stop, guys

Go! Go away -Go away from here

No sir, why should they come here and make a mess?

Hey Johnny, stop

No sir… -I’ll deal with that. Please relax

They seem to be angry, leave this to me. Please, go from here

Hey Niha, come here. -What?

You said this was scribbling. Come here and look

Oh no, this looks wonderful.

You shouldn’t say whatever comes on my mind. You did a big mistake

You saw how angry and arrogant he was.

Should he be so egoistic being talented?

Oh! You take your hard worked research material to your guide.

He’d then say it’s worthless. What will you do to him?

I’d feel like killing them. -Oh! He too did the same.

I must apologize to him.

Good to apologize. But, he may beat you up going now. So, don’t go

Hello! Niha, we must go. I’ll miss my train.

Ok fine, we shall meet next week. I can’t stay in peace, if I don’t apologize

We shall meet next week, bye. We’ll meet, bye!

We shouldn’t have left him so easily. We should’ve bashed him up

Hey, stop it -Why are you supporting them?

It’s all over now, forget about it -Johnny, get to the work now

Move -Excuse me!

Hello! -What do you need now?

To be true, I need a coffee now. -Coffee! Where can you find it here?

Hello, cool! -Foolish girl!

I commented without seeing keenly. I understood, I was out of mind

Yes, too much! -As you said, I know nothing about art

My friend dragged me here. She left as she was getting late

I’d never again talk like this. -Really? -Yeah!

You shouldn’t visit such art exhibitions in future.

Even if you visit, shouldn’t pass waste comments. -Ok!

If you accept these two, we shall go and have a coffee. -Ok!

My name is Niharika. People close to me call Niha!

I came here on a research work.

Johnny! Those close and even others call me the same

I stay right here and you know about my job.

I’d apologize once again for what I said.

I understood why that took so long after I deeply observed that

I excused you, forget that now. You have no mistake in that

We are all the same, criticizing what we don’t like

You are an artist and how can you shout back when someone criticizes

You must be open to all sorts of criticism, you know?

That’s for those of a different level. I’m just a normal person.

As you said before, I’m a crazy guy. Thus I shout when I get angry

Many are like me. They don’t fall out, but I fall out. That’s the difference

In general, I’m a bit high in anger than the others. So, I too apologize to you.

Not a bit, we must say very high. -Yeah!

Will I get busses or autos to go home from here?

Oh, so you aren’t from this place. Do you know your stop? -No!

Great! I’m free now and can drop you for this time -Ok!

Do you know the place where to go or no?

Address is in my bag -Ok, come on

Have you ever come here before? -No!

It has a good ambience. This beach is great. -Oh!

Fishes just caught from the sea, sir! -Hey!

Sir, what’ve you done? This is our livelihood.

Take if you want or leave, sir -Will you put it in my mouth?

Selling the dead fish and again says livelihood

Sir, that’s a fish alive in water and dies when brought out

Why do you get angry? -Why did you push him?

That wasn’t my mistake -Come on, say sorry

Hey, what’s the mess here? -It seems sir doesn’t like dead fish

Take him away silently from here, otherwise… -What’ll you do?

Don’t make a mess, go -What? -Come on

Are you any mad? Why are you so angry?

You saw him putting that dead fish on my face

Are you seeing the fish sellers just right now?

You over reacted and are you justifying that?

Did I over react? Then what did he do?

What did you do, then? -Get in -Damn!

This is Mr JP’s house, right?

Niha, I already said to be high in anger right?

Ok Mr Johnny, I’ll take leave -Bye, good night! -Bye

Niha, this isn’t Bangalore. Vizag respecting stature

This isn’t any lodge to come and go as you like

Don’t bother into my matters. -Who else should I bother about?

It’s my complete responsibility to take care as long as you are in this house

I’ll have to talk to your mom if this goes like this

I too have a lot to talk with mom. You know that, right?

Don’t unnecessarily instigate me.

You don’t imagine that I forgot everything and came to stay here.

I came here as mom said. I’ll leave from here once I get a good place

Don’t mess up in my matters till then

Niha! -Just don’t scream

Damn!

Say the truth Johnny, how many faces do you have?

You were seen as an arrogant angry man when we met for the first

Later, felt to be of a serious type. And now the complete picture has changed

No problem, both are good.

I felt that night, I got a good friend to tease and fight with

But now I feel, enough that you be with me life long and guide me

You will stay, right?

I also feel better you don’t hug me and try to console

Because I too cannot console like that

Wow, this too looks like a small exhibition. Can I come in?

Or will you scold me like that day?

You can happily come in, but shouldn’t comment about anything here

How did you know this address?

I wanted a painting. Friend of mine started fighting for that day’s incident

Her birthday is coming and I thought to present her with a good painting

I enquired a lot and came searching for this address.

I came to know you are an international figure after I reached here

I felt like returning back, but thought to take at least an autograph and came back

Very good! Did good thing by coming back and not returning

Ok! -But you took great risk in coming

In general, artists like me have bad image in regards with girls

In special, if he’s handsome, clever and alone, that’d be more

I came here after knowing about you.

He’s been blabbering from the day you dropped me at home

He’d have given at least ten lectures -Who, JP? -Yes

All talk great about him. I too know a bit about him.

Someone might have said him bad about me -Maybe!

He’s a good writer like everyone says

There’d be some magic in his writing, different from the others

Hey, just stand still -What? -Don’t move

What? -No need of these

What? -I’ll paint you, if there is no objection

Ok! -Stay still, don’t move

Is it done? -No, I’ve just started

It’s hard to be still -Stay still

I feel bored -It takes more time if you keep moving

A bit this side… No, here! Oh no, paint!

Keep the hand that way

Is it done or no? -Let it finish. I’ll say once done.

Johnny, enough now -Yeah, it’s done

I can’t stand any more -It’s done, final touch

Oh no, why are these tears?

You cried, right? -When did I cry? I was smiling.

You pretended to be smiling for me not to know

What are you saying Johnny?

Art isn’t drawing what we see and colour it up

Not just I see, but can also imagine what is behind that

You weren’t just smiling, but were thinking something

You are disturbed in those thoughts.

You are managing not to showcase those on your face

Your face changed colours while you were in thoughts

White has turned brown at first. Then it turned baby pink

Then it further turned red. Even your eyes weren’t focussed at all

Though not in pace, but your eyes were saying something

While you were in thoughts, both your eyes filled in tears

You with great force managed them not to flow down

This is true. I already said, real artist can imagine even what

eye can’t see and then draw that

Say now, this is the truth right?

Why are you not accepting the truth and being silent?

Johnny, what did you just say about uncle?

Someday bring him here, make him sit still and draw his picture

Only then, his real face will fall out

But for the actor he is, he can even fool you

What you said is right. I was standing there and thinking about him

About my childhood ruined by him.

Johnny, to say about a girl losing her father…

Not just as uncle being mom’s brother, one can say as a father

I too felt the same way. He was a good person visiting us monthly and taking care

He was very affectionate. But later, I noticed some change in his affection

It took some time to understand that.

But then, I had no courage to say bad about mom’s brother, friend and a mentor

He was strength to mom like a pillar. He changed his life for niece and sister

I felt so while thinking about all this

For two years since then, I was being abused all the while. I understood that.

Uncle took me for walk one day.

I was frightened.

I knew he was wrong, but had to go by mom’s force

I went with a courage that he won’t misbehave on a public road

I walked with him for some distance. He took me in a shortcut

That was an isolated place.

I never walked so long in my life before

He took me very far away. There was none around.

I still listen to the sound of my heartbeat that day

But nothing happened there like I feared

He went over his knees and wept asking to apologize for everything he did so far

He pleaded me not to say any of this to mom

Johnny, that was a moment I was both confused and disturbed

Though he did nothing that day, I’d have said all this to mom some day

I understood that he can go any far, as he fell then on my feet

Thus, I haven’t broken my word given to him

He is best friend to mom till date. He is her only pillar of strength.

He behaves like nothing happened, even after 12 years

But, I can’t bear with this. Because I hate him

Because I hate him so bloody much!

Hey Niha, stop -Johnny, move

Please stop -I got to go

You can leave, but come in for once and go

What shall I do? You know what I feel now?

I feel why did I take so much trouble to come here

You know why did I share this only with you?

I don’t know any of these, but you come in for once and go

Come on -Johnny, leave

Look! I didn’t know what to say for what you said and asked for

This is the only language I know

I heard everything you said.

That was his fear starting at the moment he started frightening you

That is your liberation, Niha.

Thank you!

Say now, which painting do you need as a gift for your friend?

Actually, I didn’t come here for just the painting.

I don’t have many friends in this city.

Our friendship started with fights. I felt you’d connect even after few issues

Thus, took this reason when I was bored and came down here

I’ve already given gift to my friend.

Why did you laugh? -Nothing!

I’ll take leave now. -Ok

Ok, bye! -Bye!

Niha, you don’t need to be feeling bad and stay there

You take your bag and come here any time. There are many unused rooms here

I’ll give it a thought.

If frightened to sleep alone, you can sleep with me. I don’t mind

I haven’t got any such thoughts.

I didn’t want to come there even when you offered me a room

But I’m going breathless here, as you said

He started harassing me without any reason

Thus, I came out of that house

Because of the connection I said, felt not to have safety in any hostel

Thus, came here remembering what you said. That was for my good.

Come on, why are you treating me like a baby?

I feel I’m very free and happy now

Uncle, I said many times not to shuffle the items

Why do you worry about their placement?

I’ve kept them where they were.

At least you say him aunty, how many times shall I say?

Hey, come on.

Can’t you understand at all? -What have I done?

Why are these in my hands? -Who is she? -Who knows?

What do I know?

Come in!

This is our room. -What? -I mean your room

It is clean and beautiful as this was used by mom

You are there in all the photos.

Photographs are framed memories. It was my mom’s philosophy

I and dad were the handsome models for my mom’s photos

Thus, only we are there in these photos

Looks like, you were naughty even as a kid.

Yes! I’m naughty then, now and forever

You are into that photo, when there are so many photos here

I understood what you are thinking about. -Stop it!

Why did you behave so with them? I felt very bad.

That wasn’t good -Yes, I too felt the same

No problem, this will repeat in two days and will correct this

Not a joke, take this seriously. They just arranged the house

Hello madam Niharika Banerjee, Martin uncle is a good man

But I like all the items in the house to be in its place

What? Should it be in the same place? -Yeah!

Nothing in your room is perfect. Everything is thrown shabbily

It’s so shabby with used dresses, books and paintings

There’s something known as Chaotic system in Chemistry

That room was the perfect example for that, when we came

How can anyone pick something from that trash?

That may be for you, but this is the perfect system for me

You know, there’s a beauty even when shabby. There’s some meaning too.

Take India from the Kings era for example

Haven’t all shabbily thrown areas form a nation and settle down?

Rubbish! -Not at all

How can you say what you don’t understand as rubbish?

Anything should be in reach to me. It doesn’t happen if everything is hidden

It’s very easy for me to take anything now in this room

Ask, what do you want? - I don’t need anything

Come on ask and I’ll get it. I’ll give it right away

Towel! -Towel! -Yes!

Here is the towel -Ok, comb!

Comb! Here! -Underwear!

Underwear! -Yeah!

Ok, let it be there. -What else?

Paint brush! -Ok, paint brush

Paint brush! Come on!

Here is the paint brush -Scissors

Scissors! Small or big? -Medium!

Medium! Here! -No!

Do you have the wallet? -Yes, wallet is there

Pen! -We don’t use pens here, only pencils here

We can’t wipe out if written with a pen.

Hi -Here is the pen

What master, where have you been? -I was in tour

What’s happening here? I see new faces

Hello! Who is she? -I’ll introduce

She’s Niharika. Niharika Banerjee -Oh!

But people close to her call Niha. She came for research at the University.

She’d be here for few days.

No, pen! That pen is mine. -Oh!

Oh no, I didn’t introduce you.

He’s Martin. I call him uncle, he’s all in one

This entire house is in his control.

Heard that sound, right? That’s Salomi aunty, Martin uncle’s wife

No Johnny, she’s my wife -I said the same

And he’s Sivanesan master.

He’s an artist, activist, traveller and anything -Hi

He’s my master, brother, friend and everything -Enough, dude

All these are the roles played for livelihood.

Salomi -What? -Will you have coffee?

Two coffee -Ok -Ask to bring Tea for me

Wow, asked well. Tea and here? You don’t get that in this house

Even these drink coffee.

They got tea powder to have black tea and he threw it out in garbage

Tea bores a lot. I’ll get you a good coffee

Hey, we’re outside. Send it there -Ok

You come on dear, we shall go out -Yeah!

Where is your house, dear? -In Bangalore

From how long do you know him?

Not long but from two weeks -Ok, sit

Total number of people coming into his life along with me is just 10

Only we are continuing in his life as well wishers from many years

He added you too in that list and brought you here now

But, I wish to be here for some time as paying guest

You aren’t a paying guest, but more than that

He brought you here and allotted a room as you are something special

I know him from his childhood. I don’t complain he lacks something.

Though he makes everyone laugh, he’s mentally very weak

It is important to know about him, as you wish to stay here for a while

He’s very depressed to have seen two deaths closely

His dad died when he was 10 and he’s very frightened seeing that

We thought it’d come down slowly, but that enhanced into phobia

Even a small dead ant disturbs him, when he sees that

Those not knowing this may even go mad seeing him behave in that moment

And then was his mom. They were very much attached as only they were together

Even his mom fell sick and died within a month

That was his second shock. He hasn’t come out of his room for the final rites

Later it took very long to be at least like this through psychiatrist’s treatment and medicines

He is into a depression in life with all these

He started fighting with death taking his mom and dad away

But, he forgets all these at times. Artist in him wakes up that time

Give break for five minutes to your discussion and then talk

Hold your cups and sip the coffee.

Coffee is caffeine and Caffeine is creativity. Who said this?

It’s you - Correct, I must have said

Hello, what man? Hey, I’ll have coffee and come.

You come in. Come on, you first come inside

Hey no, you don’t leave. Here, I’m coming.

Who is it? -My driver would go leaving me here

Driver and from when is this? -Recently, dude

I’m taking this -Ok -See you, we shall meet again

When did she come here?

I’ll be in control and behave decently -Agreed!

Is he the driver hurrying you up?

How are you Suraj? Why didn’t you come in?

Nothing -Nothing?

He’s angry over you for some reason

Are you coming or not? -I’m coming

Why are you angry? Say the matter. - I said nothing, right?

Then, why didn’t you come in?

You arranged a tour program for them, didn’t care about that later.

Is that the reason? - Yes!

He arranged South India tour program, formed a music band and made us practice

Did he and his friends look into where to go, how to go and what to do?

No, so? - Are you coming or not? -I’m coming, man

Suraj, this is the first tour for you right? -Yes

Did you ever go in RTC bus or general compartment for programs? -No

Then why are you making black face? -I haven’t

You know how tough is it to go with band to Guntur or Vijayawada?

Show is at 8:10. No problem for these great guys. Do whatever, I’ve no problem.

I got an idea by saying general compartment

We too shall in general compartment along with him

All these will do the show in train by singing

That would be great variety and we can save money too

Give me the keys -This too is a good idea

Are you coming or not? -I’m coming.

Slowly, kick without tension and it’d start. No tension, slowly

We don’t need you -Take care of her

Did you finish coffee? -Yes -Come on

Is there no argument in what you do?

I have my disagreements in whatever you support about your deeds today

They aren’t just objects as you said.

You are putting the pencil in your ear and using spit to turn pages

No, it is so disgusting. It’s good to have talent, but ego isn’t good

You must stay away from all these

How much more time, are you not yet done?

It’s almost done granny, wait for some time

I think he can’t draw and is thus delaying

Where is your grandson?

He just went out on a work and he will be back

Granny, how is he?

He doesn’t look like my hubby. I think you drew someone else

This is your hubby. It must have been around 15 years since he left you

And thus you are unable to recognise him. Look properly

Yes, he must have grown old.

Ok, I’ll make him young if you wish

You be here and I’ll get you soup -Ok!

Johnny, what exactly are you doing? -You’re seeing, don’t you know?

I’m asking the same, don’t you feel shabby?

What, to draw? -Not that, but putting the pencil in your ears

Is that your problem? We use whatever is in hands when it itches

You draw with this pencil and must give a dignity and divinity to that

You got to respect that, right? - That isn’t any big matter

This is an use and throw instrument

We sharpen this with a blade and throw it away when not in use

That’s it, nothing more and nothing less

Not that I wish to argue, but you got to give some respect to that

Niha, I’d understand if you say about art work I do

But if you say to respect instruments I use, I can’t do that

For example, this book in your hands is just a book

But how can you say this is God or Goddess Saraswathi?

Of course not, a book is Goddess Saraswathi. Didn’t you read?

A book can give you life and a book can take your life

Show me if there is any such divinity in this book?

Hey what is this, why do you use spit to turn pages?

How do we turn pages without wetting with spit?

I do the same. Not just me, but my dad and his dad also did the same

Even my kids in future would use spit to turn pages

Oh! No use in saying anything to you. Your dynasty has no evolution

Can anyone turn pages without using spit? -Enough now

What is your problem with spit? Come on say

What is your problem with my spit? -Oh no!

Oh Johnny, give me the hand -You criticised spit and fell in water

One second! -Fast -Wait, I’m giving

Slowly! Oh no! -No!

You! -No idea how many did spit in this water

Come on -Hold me

Sit carefully -Let’s relax for some time

I remember enjoying on Vizag streets with few stranger kids

This is a vague memory from my childhood

Happiness like broken down vehicle somewhere has suddenly started

Thank you -Welcome

Sir, dinner is ready -I’m coming

No, sister!

If it is so, let’s stop even this Fathima

From tomorrow, I’ll have food outside

What’ve I done now, hubby?

Janaki, close that window in my room -Ok!

Fathima, you changed a lot. We decided to separate as good friends, right?

I gave papers to file, after informing you right?

But, you look different from then.

It’s been so long since you spoke heart fully looking into my eyes, Fathima

Look, I didn’t hide anything from you. I said it all with you before the wedding

I said what happened earlier in my life. I also said our marriage life wouldn’t go good.

It was my big mistake to agree for marriage with you

I said to separate for your good -For my good?

Can you heart fully say that you did this for my good?

I signed those papers just for you. I felt you’d be happy

What you said is correct. You didn’t anything from me

I said ok for wedding thinking this as a test for me

I then had a confidence that I could change you

But, you don’t like to change at all. My thinking proved wrong

We brought that cat and photos here as you shouldn’t forget the past

You like to live with those old memories.

I think you don’t feel good that I stay here.

So, this divorce you’re doing for me. But a help I’m doing for you.

Yes Aloshi! -Sir, I met Sri Sai builders people

Their MD is in city only for this night. It seems she’s leaving to Dubai tomorrow

And she’s back only after two weeks. She’s now in their guest house

They asked to meet tonight if it is urgent.

We shall meet today itself. I’m ready in 10 minutes. -Ok

You come and pick me up -Ok sir

Mathews, Karnataka Police sir -Put it on speaker

Hello! -Hello Aloshi, I enquired about the case you informed

It is a suicide. Their statement says she was dead when they saw her in room

It was found that she took a sedation based compound poison

Our team collected the poison sprinkled shawl and the poison bottle

We didn’t find anything else suspicious there -Ok!

There was nothing unusual in her mother’s statement

She came back in between without completing research in Vizag

She was very dull from when she returned.

Her mom stated she was out just twice and stayed in her room for the rest of the time

Ok -We have even her uncle’s statement

He came to Bangalore the day before that incident after her mom called him

He said Niharika was in relation with someone while in Vizag

It was found in my enquiry that it was not considered much as

family members didn’t show interest

The case is kind of closed.

Ok Mathews, this is enough for now -Right!

Even our Doctors said poison was similar

Have you observed another thing here?

JP was in Bangalore on the day Niharika died

But he didn’t say this when we met and spoke

You feel like missed something from when we met him

Not just that, there is another thing. I’ll say, you start the vehicle

So, you say not to know John

Yes sir, only now after you said I got to know name of the guy

drawing the pictures is Johnny

That project was the mistake done by my team here.

Actually we can say that painting helped us to rethink

And thus we dropped that. Even you must have seen the news

Now that wall has a great attraction in city.

You’re saying not to have enquired till date about who did that, right?

Harsha, take these bags from here -Ok madam

Yes, even before we started enquiring, it became a talking point

And as I said, mistake was from our side and thus gave him the chance to correct that

As shown in cinemas, ours isn’t a firm with evil intentions, sir

Our company does only fair deals and take part in important social causes

We’ve been featured in media many times

When are you back again if you leave today?

Madam, he is Jaya Prakash right? -Yes

How do you know Jaya Prakash?

JP is a good friend of mine and a well-wisher of Sri Sai

JP was in Bangalore for some time, as his sister settled there

We became friends there. -You too stay in Bangalore?

Yes, I’m settled there. My partner takes care of all matters here.

I’ve no problem till date from him. -Is JP that partner?

Hey, never! He’s just a good friend and well-wisher, that’s all

Ok Miss Sai Priya, thank you for your time. Sorry, if we wasted your time

No worries at all. It takes one month if I leave today.

Thus I said to meet today -Ok!

I think JP has connection even with her, sir

There isn’t anything false in what she said

Hey, here!

You need a smoke? -No!

Why? What are you thinking?

Akbar, when I said to adopt baby Jayaram sir said there is no meaning in blood relation

What you read in diary and based on the cases we see, I too feel it is correct

I feel frightened, Akbar.

I feel pain if baby feels sad or weeps, from the day she came into my life

We suffer to know if she got hurt or was hurt by someone

Then how are these blood relatives abusing the kids like this?

At least the parents should understand if such things are happening

Sir, have you read any books written by this JP rascal?

Social awareness it seems, my foot!

We will look into his matter later, let’s move now

So, tomorrow… -Let’s finish him immediately, sir

That time hasn’t come yet. I too am very angry

What if some new characters come up by the time I finish reading that diary?

Whatever, we shall meet him tomorrow again. You leave for now

Ok, good night sir -Good night

Johnny, you’ve a false opinion that life of everyone is an open book like yours

You must change that. You should give some value to my privacy

I don’t like even my mom messing with that. Dairy relates to the owner’s privacy

After reading that when I questioned, I didn’t see any feel to have done mistake in your face

Even that has to change.

Move, you’d cut your hand -No problem

I’ll clean it -I’ll clean it

No problem, I’ll clean -I’m saying to clean, right?

When did you come? I slept, have you come late?

I just came and came in as the door was open

Our Suraj and band had practice today and I went there

You too can come if you are free -What time?

We shall leave now if we got to go -Ok! -Ok!

Was that Cockroaches? Who gave that name to the band?

They were named cockroach batch as they were roaming without any work

That has become their band name. -Where is their house?

All other than the birthday boy Rohan grew up in orphanage home -Oh!

Sivanesan brought me here when I was roaming with them

All those have a good talent. Now they even have a fan following.

They are going on South India tour tomorrow. -Is it? -Yes

Somehow, I didn’t get a good impression on Rohan.

Hey, don’t think bad about him. He is a good guy.

Even he has no parents like me. That is a tragedy.

What about that key in his neck?

He’s close to me and that is our house key. -Oh!

I gave it as he can take rest when he wishes to

He hasn’t come after I gave key, but you came unexpectedly

Ok, good night -Wait!

You come once to my room. I have some work with you.

Really? I already expected there’d be such a work. Come on

Oh no, it isn’t what you think. -So, it isn’t that work?

Ask whatever you want fast, I’m feeling sleepy

Don’t worry, I won’t take much time

Say, what is the work? -Come on, I’ll say

No problem, say it

Did you read my diary? -Yes, I read. But only a bit

I’ll hit you. Diary is their personal, it is uncivilised to read it

If you that again… -I’ll never read again. Leave it

We became good friends now and are able to share any matter

That shouldn’t spoil because of reading the diary.

I’ll give you my dairy, when I feel confident that you can read and understand that

Is what you said now, correct? -What?

That we got the freedom to share everything -So!

Then, I’m going to sleep right here. I got to share few things with you

Is it? -Come on -Come on -Come on

You said to be feeling sleepy? -It is gone

It won’t be gone anywhere. Go sleep now

Good night -Ok -Please -Bye

Niha, good night!

Niha madam, something is wrong with sir. Please come and see -What?

Please come -What happened?

Johnny, what happened?

No idea what happened. He suddenly fell down.

He woke up only after I sprinkled water on his face

What happened? -Sir went cycling while we were coming here

What happened, Johnny? - It might have been 10 minutes

I was watering the plants. He came cycling fast, threw it down and fainted

What happened, are you ok?

Ground! A person hung himself to the tree in ground.

His eye balls were out. There are many gathered around

Did he sleep, madam? This happened so many times

He always was frightened after his mom died.

That’s why Siva sir brought us here for work

Aunty, do you have Mr Siva’s number?

Number! No idea if he’d lift or not. I’ll get it

Necrophobia means the sudden fear by watching something with death

or something indicating death like funerals, graves, coffins or dead bodies.

Extreme condition of our normal fear is this phobia

Johnny may often go unconscious like it happened now

He may feel breathless and even get a panic attack.

There are many basic treatments to put the mind away from that

To bring him out of that, I diverted his concentration into art

He likes arts very much. Even art is a treatment for such people

Art is a good therapy to change human mind. This is scientifically proven

That’s what we did in regards with Johnny

His mom died by the time we thought he recovered

Not just with Necrophobia, but Johnny is now suffering even with Tenatophobia

They say death anxiety, right?

Such fear settled strong in him after seeing even mom’s death

This condition is not something that can’t be cured. But takes some time

Even I’m frightened after seeing your fears, Johnny

I wish you didn’t have to go through this

Johnny, what you did today is a horrible thing.

It was like you shouted out my secrets to all, which I couldn’t share even with mom

It would’ve been better if you killed me than doing that, Johnny

Hey, you go and get the vehicle. I’ll be right here

I parked the car very nearby, come on

I said not to park it there. I didn’t see anyone around

I’m not so rich paying to watch the film and even to park vehicle. I parked at free parking

So much of argument for five rupees?

It amounts to fifty rupees if we watch ten movies

We just saw one film, right? -We’ll have to see more, right?

I’m unable to walk. I’m hungry.

That’s your problem, right? -Yes -Come

What? -Come on!

I have a great idea and you’d get shocked. Come on

Johnny, what is this place? -Come -Say!

Don’t talk and sit silently -Sit -Is this a marriage party?

No idea, but there’s always a party running here. We get even free food

Is it? -Just eat and leave with a smile

Johnny, there may be some problem -Don’t worry

I’ll go and get food.

Give two plates

Here, eat this -Is there no fry along with this?

We don’t get what we want here. We shall eat what he serves

Yes, good -Ok!

Eat without any fear

Johnny, uncle is standing there.

Hey! -Don’t worry

Johnny, he’s coming to us.

Niha, I should talk to you. Just with you alone, come

No problem, I’ll talk and come

Niha, what are you doing? Why are you with him?

I’m safer there than with you

Give one peg

I haven’t yet said anything with your mom -You wish to say?

I too will say few things

You can’t say anything -You just think so

I have got no fear now, be careful -Did you say to him?

What if I say? -You! -Hey, leave

Leave -You can’t be with him

You can’t touch Niha any more

Who are you, idiot? This is a family matter

It won’t be good if you touch saying as a family matter

She isn’t still a kid to touch as you like -Johnny, no please

Let everyone know about him -You!

Is it just Niha or have you ruined many other kids? -Please!

No Johnny, come on let’s leave -Niha!

Parents with girls, don’t let him into your house -Johnny, please

Don’t talk, move -He’s an animal

Johnny, please -Niha!

Johnny, you should understand one thing.

Everybody is not a bloody open book like you

Johnny, you opened up the facts in all which I wanted to forget in my life

Don’t you understand how much pain it gives me? -Niha!

Is it correct for you to talk normal with him even after so much has happened?

Nothing wrong when you talk so.

But you expect me to talk normal even after knowing about him

If you hadn’t brought me back, I’d have bashed him up right there

No problem what people there think about you for scolding him, I don’t feel bad

You saw how he stared at you there. I too saw that and I didn’t like it

Not just him, I don’t like anyone looking so at you

I know Niha, you won’t be here forever. You’d leave once your research is over

But now, you are more than anyone else in this world for me

Niha, I must say something to you.

I know it doesn’t sound good to say standing outside the bathroom

I can even say later, but I felt this is the right time

I think I’m the first person proposing love to lover standing outside the bathroom

But, there is no any cheating in this. In real, I need you

I’ve a feeling I can’t be without you for my life as a companion

Let’s live happily together with painting, research and teaching

our kids to turn pages with spit

I haven’t got any bigger dreams than these.

Did you understand what I said? I love you, Niha

You finish fast and come. I’ll be waiting outside

You should’ve respected at least Salomi aunt’s age. Poor Salomi aunty!

What’s that looking like a bouquet?

I brought it as was coming for cheap -Oh, is it?

I thought, would look good in vase -I don’t need that

Just for the flower vase

You came with flowers to propose me, right? -Yes

Shall we get married? -Is that so necessary?

Not really, but good if we marry -Is it?

Johnny, girls like me will have high expectations.

Higher in case of love and relationship

Your proposal wasn’t good enough to accept. Good if there was more excitement and drama

It should have been a bit more romantic

Johnny, you aren’t any super hero. But I wish you to be so

And you think to make me an artist. Your wish would never come true

Forget about that wish. You shouldn’t get depressed for it.

I hate the artist in you. Because, I’m madly in love with the person you are

Johnny, will you leave me and go?

Where will I go? This is my world.

I’d happily live teasing Salomi aunty and uncle, and painting

You are a Gypsy, if at all you’d leave me and go

But, where can I go? Do you like me to go?

You’ve so many places , right?

You can go to your mom in Bangalore. You can also go to your dad’s place in Kolkata

If not all these, you can even settle abroad on the name of research

You’ve many places and I’ve got none

But, where would I have a safety like when I’m with you?

Looks like you’d get everything you wish immediately

Oh no, liking someone wouldn’t happen by planning.

Love comes without informing and occupies nicely

But seeing your deeds, I felt something like this may happen

And see, my intention always comes true.

Thus, I was ready to accept as and when you come and propose me

Is it? -Yes -Really? -Yes

One minute -Where are you going?

I’ll just be back

What is this? -It belongs to mom

Though she doesn’t exist, she is always like with me. That is my luck

Johnny, come out. Come fast.

Master -Baby, can you give a hot coffee? -Yes!

There isn’t any urgency -Ok!

Why are you not bothering and sitting at home?

Did you enquire why Martin and Salomi haven’t come?

By the way, you know what happened to granny?

What happened, master?

Should anyone come and say about what’s happening around you?

Come down, what are you staring? First, you come down

He changed a lot these days.

People buying that place had come. It seems, everyone has to move out

They had even brought some order from the Court.

Say, where can we go?

You said to talk with those boys and the Company people and set everything right

They said ok then and no idea what happened again

No idea, what would happen to Rajamma now?

Her hubby went away. She’s waiting for him from 10 to 12 years

She has nothing other than the house in this colony. God should save her now.

They said to come to the hospital after knowing about her

That house was built by my husband. I should be there when he comes back

Where shall I go if they ask to leave from here?

This colony has to be vacated tomorrow as per court order

All are ready to vacate. And then that old lady tried to commit suicide

We heard some sound. When seen at the well, she jumped into the well

We thought she was dead. -We immediately jumped in

We just saw granny’s hair and we pulled her up

They asked to vacate and come here -None would leave without finalising

There’s none to care about us. Thus they are doing as they like

We shouldn’t let their force run any more now

Johnny, wait a minute. I should say something

If you wish to do something for them, ask your friends to do and we shall leave

You already look very disturbed. Please Johnny!

No problem for me, I’m ok. Why are you frightened?

My fear is about your condition.

I understand your social responsibilities and artistic instincts well.

You must accept that you can’t see and do a few things, Johnny

You want me to accept and sit idle at home?

As you said then, are you happy if I make crazy paintings, sell them

to rich people and settle marrying a rich girl?

Is this what you expect from me?

That’s because I know much about you.

You can’t forget about yourself and do much like before

I know how much will you suffer by doing so.

I’m not saying this to live happily with you, but for you not to suffer

I know that art in your hands can’t save you, Johnny

You don’t understand that. You are not a God damn Super hero

I know! I know!

Sivanesan master made me walk holding my hand when I was 10

Salomi aunty and uncle came in my support after I became alone

I’m able to live like this now with the help of all these

I can’t let go all these and live like I don’t care about them

I can’t be selfish even if something happens to me, Niha

You do as you wish, but responsibility of that is all yours

I’ve got more responsibility towards you, Johnny

I’ll do anything to protect you and will go to any extent

I’ll never let you go alone, that’s all. I too will come with you, wherever you go

I know! I know! These colony people have just this one day

We too have just this one day to do anything for them.

Hey, what’s that? Who are you all?

Brother, come here -Why? -Come on, I’ll say

Johnny! -Leave it!

“Stand strong to make a dream come true”

“Stand strong to make a dream come true”

Hey Police, come on run -Come on, run -Come

They’re behind us -No problem

Johnny, I said not to do such things

Go slowly, slow

Johnny, careful! Please go carefully

Niha, I can’t see anything. It’s all dark -What?

What are you saying, Johnny?

Johnny! Johnny!

Johnny, open your eyes. Johnny!

Johnny! Johnny!

Bring the reports to my room, once they come -Ok!

He’s conscious now, nothing to worry. They are just minor injuries

What actually happened? -He suddenly said can’t see anything

I was saying to stop the bike and then… -We gave him sedation

Let him sleep for a while.

Johnny is actually Necrophobic. He often faces difficulties with this.

Let him be in our observation tonight. We shall do a scan

We shall decide tomorrow if there’s something -Ok!

It is scrolling in channels as this incident became news.

Did they call for them to speak? No idea how are the colony people

My phone got switched off yesterday and I didn’t go anywhere

It’s boring to sleep in the room. It’s cold outside and those noises

I feel my head is breaking

You know, they won’t let us be here for long

If you relax a bit, I’ll drop you at the room.

What if we leave without informing anyone? -Why?

It’s only till tomorrow afternoon and we can then leave

What happened?

Johnny’s scan reports, please

Results haven’t still come and Doctor asked you to meet

Doctor… -Doctor is in his room

Ok, thank you

Do you know of any other physical issues than the phobia you said?

There aren’t any important issues. He likes to exercise like cycling and jogging

That means he is physically fit, right?

Do you find any symptoms of migraine or memory loss? Have you seen any?

He gets blacked out in this phobic attack. But he has no problem with that

He is Dr Sudarshan, senior oncologist in our hospital

Sir agreed after saying the patient’s name. Sir has treated even Johnny’s mom

We found something in his scan. We called Dr Sudarshan for second opinion

What’s wrong Doctor? What did you know?

Johnny, why did you send me away? You know I can’t live without you

Can you live? You said we both shall get drenched in the rains

and pushed me into rain alone?

It has been 10 days, Johnny. I felt many times to come there.

If you shut the door on my face by chance, I’d die the very moment

You shall come here now. I should hug you tight. I should keep you close to my heart.

I should give you continuous kisses.

That’s enough to forget everything.

I know, you’ll come. I’ll be waiting. Missing you like hell… Niha!

Kitty! Oh no, what’s wrong with this?

Sir! Kitty! Sir!

Sir, that cat… -What?

Kitty! Kitty! Kitty!

Madam, that cat died. -Huh!

No idea what happened to that. -Even that might have fed up

Hey, first go to Fathima hospital -Sir

We shall meet Dr Francis there -Ok Sir

Have you seen my message -Yes, I saw

What about that band? -Sir, I contacted them

They said to be cancelling South India tour and coming back

They’d be in city in some time. I asked to contact once they arrive

Looks like you slept very late, Sir -Yes

Have you read the entire diary? -Read it all

Any evidences… -Case is unsolved and am getting more new doubts

We saw in paper that Johnny died. But Niharika… it was a shock, sir

Say sir, what help can I do? -Johnny and Niharika came here

What happened that day?

They both came here due to a minor accident.

Johnny’s mom had a cerebral cancer which is diagnosed very late.

That day, we didn’t have even a chance to give any special treatment

And then what happened? -Unfortunately, same with son too

To be specific, Johnny has more pain than his mother

Symptoms show out often in this case.

It happened so as a part of the existing phobia today

I mean what happened yesterday

I know it is painful to be saying this openly.

But, there’s no point in beating around the bushes

Let’s do some more tests.

But, they are all to confirm diagnosis and not to suggest for treatment

Am I right, Doctor? -Yes, sir

Should we say this to him? -No! Don’t say that

Yes, correct in such a mental condition I too don’t suggest that

Let him live a peaceful life at least till the pain subsides

We will discharge him tomorrow and the other reports will come in two days

We shall decide the further steps once they come -Ok!

Cancer is mentioned even in post mortem report

Did Johnny and Niharika come here, later anytime?

Johnny hasn’t come here after that.

Niharika came twice to collect Johnny’s reports

By the way, one of Johnny’s friends came searching for him

He knows Dr Sudarshan. We explained everything to him

Ok, what’s his name? -Mr Shiva!

Ok Doctor, we shall call if we need again -Ok, any time

Thank you -Ok -Ok, thank you -Welcome

All the facts are clear now.

Only Johnny and Niharika know that Johnny is going to die

Thus, Niharika must have committed suicide in pain that they can’t be together

Either knowing that or in depression about the disease, Johnny committed suicide

Can we wipe out suicide possibility based on positivity from Johnny’s works?

I feel reasons for Johnny to commit suicide are less

It was written about his phobia throughout the diary

None would believe that a person fearing death would commit suicide

I feel we are missing a point somewhere

Sir, if we bash up that JP, he’d let out everything

Bro, he just abused Niharika and has no other cases against him

We can’t take him in custody though he’s a rapist as he has reputation in society

Thus, let’s wait for some time. Ok? -Ok!

Johnny, why did you send me away? You know I can’t live without you

Can you live? You said we both shall get drenched in the rains and

pushed me into rain alone?

“Shapeless breeze is my companion when you are not with me”

“Tired heart melted down like the river full of tides”

“It’s all a vacuum not knowing the means to let go pain”

”Time doesn’t move even by a second now”

“Open up this curtain of darkness”

“Open up this curtain of darkness”

“Everything around says you don’t exist, will this change?”

“Will the friendship dry out if I come along with you?”

“Open up this curtain of darkness”

“Open up this curtain of darkness”

“It’s your friendship seen all over the paths I’m going”

“Shapeless breeze is my companion when you are not with me”

“Tired heart melted down like the river full of tides”

“Shapeless breeze is my companion when you are not with me”

I know that you’re right here. Johnny, I love you

Because of which I’m leaving!

“Open up this curtain of darkness”

“It’s your friendship seen all over the paths I’m going”

Sir, take tea -Yes

You need anything else, sir -Nothing -Ok sir

Do you have any idea about Mr Shiva?

I enquired about him. It seems he went on tour before these two deaths

I tried to contact, was not reachable. I came to know that he’s always in tours

Hello! Ok, where are you?

Sir, that band guys are coming in this same route. Shall I ask them to come?

We shall go there and meet.

We thought to cancel the tour and come back after knowing

about Johnny’s death, sir

Rohan informed this to us. But, we came to know about Niharika from Sir

Why didn’t this keyboard player come with you for the tour?

He should be, but his health was down in Bangalore tour

Thus we sent him back to his place, sir

So, Rohan was at his place all these days.

He should’ve been, sir.

But he was admitted in hospital as his condition was serious

Did Rohan say anything that he met Johnny and Niharika?

No sir, I and Johnny’s friends were taking care of Rohan at the hospital

He arranged funding for our band.

Johnny had never come into scene after that, sir

Rohan actually didn’t know Niharika and thus he said not to have met her, sir

Ok, go and look into your work. None came forward for Johnny’s body till now

By chance, if you wish to take, call Aloshi and inform -Ok Sir

Suraj, you have the key to Johnny’s house, right? -Yes

Give me that key once -Key! Actually Rohan has the key sir

He wore it as a locket in his neck, sir. -Ok!

Sir, we should’ve put some more pressure. What do you say?

A problem can be created, if they wish to.

But, I don’t see a motive for crime

After knowing about NIharika’s suicide and that the poison in

both the suicides is the same, we understand that the reason behind

both these deaths is the same person.

He must be someone who could visit both the places, close to both

and knows deep about both

Have you come to question me about that scoundrel instigating

our girl to commit suicide?

Aloshi!

If you ever pretend saying, our girl and niece…

She clearly wrote about your abuse and torture in her diary.

We came here after reading all that, rascal

Don’t you have any shame, idiot? -Aloshi, enough!

You’ve seen it, JP. Say the truth at least now. Or we shall use our ways

Don’t spoil my life, I’ll say. I did some mistakes in regards with Niharika

I fell on her feet and apologised for that. But, she still didn’t forgive me

But, I was a changed man -Did you kill them both for changing?

Please believe me, sir. I whole heartedly wished for his death as he took away Niha

But, I haven’t done anything to anyone. Still, how did you think I did those murders?

I know nothing. -No use talking to him

Aloshi, come on let’s leave.

JP, remember one thing. You can’t get away from this.

I know well about your influence and political connections

Look, all these are of no use to you.

Believe me, I did nothing to anyone. -One last question, Mr JP

Yes -Tell the truth at least for this.

Have you ever met Johnny after Niha’s death?

To be more clear, did you see him on the day Niha died?

No! I saw him last that at the reception. -Come on!

We shall finish him, sir -Time hasn’t come yet, bro

He must’ve killed them, sir -We can’t be sure about that

If there’s a connection in both the murders, we shall first doubt JP

Reason is that he is the suspect having a great motive

But we have no evidence to state he is linked to both these murders

He is safe till we don’t get them. -What is our next step?

We shall go and talk to Mr Shiva and the colony people. We shall decide later

See you -Ok -Goodnight, bro -Good night, sir

Don’t get up, be seated.

I somehow feel sad that house doors are closed for the whole day

Thus, I came to sit here for some time.

Shall I prepare tea for you? -No need, you be seated

Are you angry on me?

I don’t know Akbar.

What’s wrong, why are you tensed?

Jayaram sir keeps saying, we shouldn’t be rigid for answers to every question

It sounds odd saying this being a Police, right?

I need an answer from you, Fathima

You must have heard about artist Johnny’s death. -Yes, I read

Girl named Niha was living with Johnny since past three months

She committed suicide in Bangalore one week before Johnny died

Only a few have come into Johnny’s life. Each of them has a unique story.

They have supporting reasons too. But, no evidences to prove it

It can also be others and just these.

But, we couldn’t get any details till now.

Niharika’s intention might be like Johnny should die without any pain

Niharika seems to be rigid that Johnny shouldn’t die from his phobia or the disease

A person hung himself to a tree in the ground. I got frightened seeing that.

Johnny isn’t just suffering with Necrophobia, but also with Tenatophobia now

They call it as death anxiety!

He died by getting poisoned and that too from his mouth

Check if there’s any divinity in this book -Damn, why do you use spit to turn pages?

How can we turn pages without spit?

I’ll do anything to protect you and will go to any extent

There’s a gift to make you happy along with this letter

My diary, which you wished to read many times. I’m sending it to you

Say the truth, Johnny. How many faces do you have?

You were seen as an arrogant angry man when we met for the first

Later, felt to be of a serious type. And now the complete picture has changed

No problem, both are good.

I felt that night, I got a good friend to tease and fight with

But now I feel, enough that you be with me life long and guide me

You will stay, right?

I also feel better you don’t hug me and try to console

Because I too cannot console like that

This isn’t any commonly available poison in market.

She prepared it by her own in the lab.

Poison was applied on all pages in the diary and last three pages in special

Shall I tell you a story? A pelt of mud and a cute leaf became friends in a forest

That friendship turned into love.

They both started the journey to see the forest’s beauty

After walking some distance, a strong breeze came in.

Then, the mud pelt saved the leaf from flying away by hiding the leaf under it

The walk continued once the breeze stopped. And now, a huge rain started

Then the beautiful leaf saved the mud pelt from melting

Even the rain stopped after a while. They both started the walk again

And now, both the breeze and rain came together.

Then, the leaf flew away in breeze and mud pelt melted in rain
