Morning, Tilak. - Good morning, sir.

The Commissioner’s meeting venue is now the Town Hall.

Okay, sir.

It’s at 12’o clock, is it? - Yes, Tilak.

Alright. I’ll inform ma’am.

Thank you.

Okay.

[phone ringing]

[phone ringing]

Ramaiah, get me breakfast. - Sure, sir.

[door bell]

What’s wrong? You said it’s urgent.

Parvathy!

Sir. - Sir.

Chinna Swamy, let’s go. - Okay, sir.

Step on it.

[indistinct talking]

[indistinct talking]

What is it?

We want to file a complaint, sir. Is the Inspector here?

Ma’am isn’t in today. Tell me what the complaint is.

We prefer speaking to the Inspector.

We’re not sure when she’ll be here.

You can wait if you like.

Come. Sit down.

Come.

[phone ringing]

Yes, Tilak?

Ma’am, ACP Arjun’s case briefing has been preponed to 12’o clock.

Thought I’d inform you…

Tilak, this is so last minute!

Ma’am, I called you in the morning.

You didn’t answer.

I’m on my way to the Commissioner’s right now.

Okay.

You attend the briefing.

Okay, ma’am. What about you?

I’ll go to the station.

Okay.

Umm…

Yes, ma’am?

If they ask for the forensic reports, tell them it’s under process.

Okay, ma’am.

‘I’m Durga.’

‘I’m the Circle Inspector of the Khairatabad Police Station.’

‘I’ll be clocking 9 years of service in a month.’

‘I live alone.’

‘I’ve always been alone.’

‘Do I like to be alone?’

‘Or do I do it to stay away from my realities?’

‘I’m not sure either.’

‘When you live like this, nobody questions you.’

‘You’re not answerable to anyone.’

‘Whatever you do is right.’

‘February 29th comes only once in 4 years.’

‘Who decides all this?’

Good morning, ma’am. - Hmm.

Good morning, ma’am. - Hmm.

Good morning, ma’am.

Good morning, ma’am.

Varun’s father called.

I spoke with him yesterday.

Okay!

Tell him to meet us at the supermarket at 1:30 pm. - Okay.

Tell him to follow my directions. - Okay, ma’am.

Two girls are here for you.

Okay.

Let’s go.

Hello, ma’am.

Come inside.

Come on.

Sit.

Tell me.

What’s the problem?

Ma’am, I’m Madhu.

And this is Parvathy.

Hmm.

Go on, Madhu.

Parvathy and I are friends.

We’re both working as Cabin Crew.

Mm-hmm.

Don’t be afraid. Just tell me.

What’s the problem?

Ah…

Ma’am…

My coffee, Mr. Murthy. - Okay, ma’am.

Raju, coffee for ma’am. - Okay, sir.

Sir, coffee.

Do you have the guy’s details?

Phone number of address?

We don’t know his name.

And she doesn’t remember his phone number.

I guess he lives in Bangalore.

His car had a Karnataka plate.

Do you remember the number plate?

Red.

It was a red color car. Maruti Suzuki, ma’am.

Okay. We’ll register your complaint.

Give us your details.

We’ll see what best we can do.

Ma’am, can you hurry up the process?

Somebody kidnapped an 8 year old boy yesterday.

12 year old girl.

Her apartment’s security guard raped her and went on the run.

She’s almost in a critical condition for a week.

You tell me which case to take up.

Come on! Tell me!

Sorry, ma’am.

Mr. Murthy, show them out. - Okay, ma’am.

Follow me. You can file the complaint outside.

I don’t think this is going to help.

Be positive, Parvathy.

Things will be fine.

James, let’s move. - Okay, ma’am.

Be alert. - Okay, ma’am.

Call me if you find anything suspicious.

Sure, ma’am.

‘We have a Buy 1 Get 1 Free offer on cookies.’

Mr. Sundaram…

Stay there.

Does anybody know that we’re meeting here?

No, ma’am.

Did you take the route I told you to?

Yes, ma’am. I did.

Did you sense anybody following you on your way here?

- No, ma’am. - Good.

Do you have any update on Varun, ma’am?

I should check the kidnappers’ mail. Give me your phone.

Here, ma’am.

Stay there.

Their last mail asked for 25 lakhs ransom.

Hmm.

Going by their pattern, I’m sure they’ll call you on the 3rd day.

Take it!

Let’s wait.

Your house is just 800 meters away from Varun’s chess class.

We enquired every shop and house on that stretch.

Did you arrange the money?

I could arrange 15 lakhs only.

I sought the help of a few friends.

I’ll arrange the whole ransom by tomorrow noon.

We just want our son to come back home.

Oh, no.

Don’t worry.

Our house feels so doomed, ma’am.

Don’t be sad.

Tomorrow is the 3rd day.

They’ll definitely contact you.

Okay, ma’am.

Bringing your son back safely is our first priority.

Trust me.

But my wife’s terrified, ma’am.

Hmm.

I don’t know how to calm her down.

I’m worried something bad will happen to him.

Your son will be home tomorrow.

Tell your wife that. I promise.

Thanks, ma’am.

James!

Pull over. - Okay, ma’am.

One full bottle. Same brand.

Okay, ma’am.

February 29th, 2020. Saturday.

It’s the second day.

I met Varun’s father.

Yet to find a solid lead in this case.

That’s it?

Kidnappers’ signature is evident.

It’s the same gang.

Four kidnappings.

Each time, they called a day before the kidnap about killing the victim.

Cyber Crime team couldn’t track them despite the email ID and IP address.

Ma’am…

Huh!

Thank you, James. - Hmm.

You take an auto rickshaw to the station. - Okay, ma’am.

I need the jeep.

Sir…

Wait a bit.

In the year 1892, a mother killed her baby girl.

Nobody could imagine that the mother did it.

But for the first time, they solved the case using finger print analysis.

Now we’re in 2020.

Do you have experience dealing with such open and shut cases?

Zero matches in ACP Arjun’s case.

Did you analyze the weapons?

Yes. Last night.

To be sure, I test ran 2 times.

No traces at all.

Even I’m shocked.

Er…

Should I send these to Calcutta for review?

It’s up to you.

If you get a different result,

I’ll quit my job here and join as a Junior Assistant in Calcutta.

What say?

Okay. - Yeah!

Thank you.

I’ll update you. - Sure, Durga. Take care.

Traffic is heavy on the Punjagutta-Ameeroet route.

Avoid that rate if you can.

A virus named COVID is spreading rapidly in a city called Wuhan in China.

As per last week’s update on February 17th, 70000 cases have been confirmed.

1700 of them haven’t made it.

This has caused many people in Hyderabad to start wearing masks.

Be safe, everybody!

It’s not like you can beat me.

Okay, go.

Let’s see.

Firstly, let’s repair it.

Please dad!

I need to get my phone fixed. - I can help you.

It’s not working. Can you take a look?

Let me see.

What happened?

No idea. It just stopped working.

I don’t get calls and I can’t see my contacts.

Okay!

[message tone]

‘Serial kidnappings are taking place in Hyderabad alone.’

‘4 kids have been kidnapped in the last few months.’

‘Nishanth, Rahul, Vinay and Praveen.’

‘In three of these cases,

….parents paid the ransom and brought their kids home.’

‘But in Rahul’s case, parents couldn’t arrange the ransom.’

‘His body was found in a burnt state 3 days later at the outskirts.’

‘I’m looking for a clue in his forensic report.’

‘The kidnappers’ pattern is as such.’

‘They send a mail on the first day.’

‘They release the kid or the body after 3 days.’

‘Varun is the victim now. An 8 year old.’

‘He got kidnapper yesterday.’

‘His father Sundaram filed the complaint.’

They gave 3 days’ time to pay a ransom of 25 lakhs.

The signatures in the mail confirm that it’s the serial kidnappers.

5 kids have been kidnapped in 4 months.

All under the age of 10.

Their method is really simple.

Kids who return home alone from school or tuition are their targets.

They send a mail after the kidnap.

Hmm.

And phone the family asking to check mail.

They demand a ransom.

Threaten to kill the kid if cops get involved.

Right!

There’s no use in tracking phone calls.

Mm-hmm.

Cyber Team is still trying to track their mail.

Anyways,

I asked for the other 4 kidnapping case files.

[door bell]

[door bell sound]

Durga ma’am… - Yeah.

Your order.

How much?

280 rupees, ma’am.

One second.

Ma’am, I don’t have change.

Keep the change. - 500 rupees?!

It’s okay.

[door bell]

Thank you, sir.

Want to have some?

No, I’m done.

Adi, Farooq Bhai was in an accident.

What?!

When did this happen?

2 hours back.

Where?

Near Yousufguda.

He isn’t injured much.

Just a few bruises here and there.

Doctor suggested a couple of days rest.

On top of that, he lost money in betting.

Is it? - Yeah.

Is he home right now?

Yeah, man.

Eat quickly. We’ll go visit him.

I’m coming from there actually.

He’s resting.

Why do you want to disturb him? We’ll go see him in the morning.

Cool?

Alright.

Sir, can you give me a timestamp?

Between 01:30-02:00 PM.

01:30-02:00 PM….

Is this her?

Uh-huh.

No.

She was in a black saree. - Is it?

I don’t see anybody in a black saree, sir.

She said it was this branch.

When somebody forgets stuff behind, we return it immediately.

She must’ve dropped it somewhere.

Okay.

Anyways, thank you very much.

Okay, sir. - Thank you.

Yes, sir.

He just came. I showed him the footage.

The lady he’s looking for didn’t visit our store.

Hey!

Are you guys sleeping?

No, bro.

His father met a lady cop at the super market.

What do we do now?

Sedate the kid.

Okay! - I’m coming.

Okay, bro.

[phone vibrating]

Hello.

Hello, Abhinav sir. This is Adi speaking.

Adi? Where do I know you from?

Er…I auditioned this morning. You gave me your contact.

Yeah, I recall.

What is this about?

You said you’d call once the director watches my tape.

You auditioned for Guna’s role, am I right?

Yes, sir.

Sorry, bro. They cast somebody else.

Better luck next time.

Sir, could you tell me where I went wrong?

How can I say that?

But I know one thing for sure.

That spot has been filled.

Oh!

Okay, sir.

Make it fast. We should wrap up. - Yes, boss. Almost done.

Bro, what’s my payment due?

Hmm….

200 rupees?

Here.

Adi, it’s going to pour today.

Stop it, bro!

[phone ringing]

I mean, you cleared the due.

Yes, Murali, tell me!

Bro!

My next order is your girlfriend’s.

Should I divert it to you like always?

Just when I think my day has been bad…

I hear some good news.

Send me the details.

It’s high-time that you talk to her, bro.

Hey, you see me as her lover.

But I’m just a delivery boy to her.

Can’t help it.

I have an idea, bro.

It’ll change your life.

After you deliver the food, ask her for some water.

Alright. I’ll try.

Good luck, bro.

Bye. - It’s closing time.

How long?

Is it so simple!

Do it properly.

I’m Adi….

Can I have some water?

Ma’am, I’m parched….

Not like…

Ma’am, I’m parched. Can I have some water?

Yes!

[door bell]

Ma’am, I’m parched. Can I have some water?

Okay!

Ma’am!…

It’s okay.

Yeah. Okay.

Ma’am!

Huh!

I’m parched. Can I have some water?

He’s a nice guy actually.

Okay then.

Ma’am.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Thanks, Murali.

All good?

She gave water. But forgot to pay me.

It’s alright. I paid.

I’ll think of this as our first dinner date.

Sorry. Sorry.

Hello?

Hello? Is everything alright?

Excuse me.

Anybody there?

Ma’am!

Ma’am!

[phone ringing]

[phone ringing]

Yes, Tilak?

Good morning, ma’am.

Arjun sir’s case briefing has been preponed to 12’o clock.

Ma’am? Hello?

Ma’am?

What’s wrong?

Ma’am, do you hear me?

Hello?

Yeah.

Ma’am, The meeting…

I’ll attend the Commissioner’s meeting. - Okay.

[phone ringing]

Yeah, Durga.

Hello, sir.

ACP Arjun’s forensics…

Got the reports.

But, zero matches.

Murder weapons?

Ah…I checked last night.

No traces at all.

I’m damn sure.

To be sure, I test ran twice.

You test ran twice, right?

Yeah. How do you know though?

Yeah, I’ll collect the report later.

Okay, Durga.
