JOE: Hello? Can you hear me?

Hello? I can't hear you Joe!

Hello?!

Hello?
- [JOE] Can you hear me now?

I can hear you now.
- What happened? All okay?

See, Joe. I need your help.
Urgently.

It's about my daughter.
- What happened?

She has walked out of her
house, Joe.

Can you find some place where
she can stay for 5-6 hours?

Sure sir.
- We'll come and pick her up.

Where are you now?
- We just crossed Coimbatore.

Sir, you send me her
photographs and other details.

I'll take care of this.

[INDISTINCT NEWS
CHANNEL DISCUSSION]

You wait in the car.
- Okay.

Tell me, sir.
Who are you looking for?

Inspector Srikanth.

Srikanth?
There's no one by that name.

I'm looking for Madhuri.
- There's no one by that name either.

She's my daughter.
- I'm telling you. There's no one here.

What's wrong, sir?
- I came to pick up my daughter, Madhuri.

Madhuri? There's no one.
- She must be in the station.

There's no one by that name.

Someone claims that his daughter's
here and has come looking for her.

[KNOCKS ON THE DOOR]

What is it?
Why are you disturbing me?

Sorry, sir.

Sir, somebody's here.

Who is it?

His daughter's apparently
in our station, sir.

His daughter?
- Yeah.

Do you see anyone here?

No sir.
- Then why are you bothering me?

Get out of here.

I don't know if I'm in a
hospital or a police station.

I need to meet the Inspector.
- Sir, please listen to me.

How many times
do I have to tell you?

There's no one in there.

Move aside. Don’t push me.

Let me talk to the Inspector.
It’s a request.

What's happening out there?
- My daughter is here.

Sir, stop right there.

Sir, listen to me!
- What is this nonsense?

Quiet! Who is this?

I told him that
there's no one here.

Was that him?
Fine.

Sir, what do you want?

I... don't know Kannada.

Do you speak English or Hindi?

Who is this oldie?

Comes to our city and asks
us to speak in Hindi.

Sit down.

Sir...

Isn't Inspector Srikanth here?

Srikanth?
There is no one by that name here.

You're talking to Patil.

Inspector Patil.
I'm in-charge here.

Madhuri is my daughter.

Last night,
she was in Whitefield.

Then?

Did you see Madhuri?
Where is she?

Who told you to
step out of the car?

I want to talk to her.
Where is she?

I'm trying to find that out.

You wait in the car.
I'll handle this.

Give madam a chair to sit.

Madam, please come.
- Sir, you take your seat.

Madam,
take your seat over there.

Why didn't you tell me that
there was a lady with him?

Sir, I didn't know.

Fine. Wait outside.
- Okay sir.

Sir, you continue.
- As I said...

My daughter...
Was at Whitefield last night.

Joe said Inspector Srikanth
will pick her up and bring her.

What was the problem?
- Well, the problem was...

Family issues,
between the husband and wife.

Was it about dowry?
- No. Not that.

How old was she?

She was around 25-26.
- She was 28.

She was going to turn
28 this September.

Did you talk to her husband?

Like I told you Inspector,
it was a personal matter.

If I talk to Inspector Srikanth,
he will know everything.

Sir, this is my station.

There's no one by
the name Srikanth.

Oh! But how can that be?

There's something wrong.

You see,
my daughter told me that she was

...picked up by the police
in front of Vishal's house.

Was Vishal her husband?

No. He was just a friend.

Let me call him.

Hello?
- Hello Joe?

She's not here.
- Oh! Is it?

She's not here either.

Who's speaking?

Hello? Joe?

This is Girish.
I'm at the Whitefield Police station.

Madhuri is not here.
No one knows about Inspector Srikanth.

Sir, what are you saying?

Are you sure that you're at
the Whitefield Police Station?

Yes. I'm in Whitefield right now.

Madhuri is not here.

Can you call Inspector
Srikanth and find out?

Her phone is switched off.

Hello Joe? Can you hear me?
- Sir...

There must be some problem.
Give me a second.

Let me call and speak to her.

You don't worry.
She'll be fine.

He must have taken her to
some other police station.

Okay. Just call and check for me.

Okay.

What's wrong, Joe?
Didn't you catch some sleep?

Sorry to be calling
you this early.

I was asleep.
But the girl's father called me up.

Oh! Did they take her back?

No, sir.

The girl's not
at the police station.

Ever since I heard about
it, I lost my sleep.

Sir?

I already informed
Srikanth to help her out.

Didn't he call you?

Sir, his phone's switched off.

You know how it works.

If a girl goes missing from a police
station, you know how the media will react.

If he calls me,
I'll let him know.

Okay?

If Srikanth...

I'll send someone to his house.
Don't worry.

Thank you, sir.

Hello?
- What's up Srikantha?

You're a big-shot
now, aren't you?

I have to wait for
your phone call.

Sleepless and waiting
for your call.

Nothing of that sorts.

I was handling an investigation.

He got on my nerves.

Is everything okay, sir?

The girl's father is waiting
at the police station.

Where is she?

Who are you talking about?

Srikantha?

Did you really forget?

I'd told you to pick her up.

Sorry, sir.

I got busy with the investigation.

So, I couldn't go there.

What was the name of the guy?

Joe!

Yes. Joe.

He didn't call me either.

I couldn't keep a track of it.

Why in the hell
would he call you?

I gave you his number,
so that you could call him.

I finished work and
passed by that area.

But there was no one.

I thought the
matter got resolved.

It was late already.
So, I didn't call you.

The girl's missing.
- What?!

You head to the
station immediately.

Take control of the situation.
- Yes, sir.

Nobody should know about it.
- Yes sir.

Listen...

My name shouldn't
make rounds in the news.

Got it?

Sure sir. I'll handle it.

I won't handle this
case in the station.

You talk to the hotel manager.
- Okay.

I'll stay in touch.
- Fine.

Get done with the job.

How do you know Joe?

He's an old friend from when I was
working in the Income Tax Department.

He's a... A businessman.

What business is he in?
- Hospitality. Food & Beverages.

You mean he's into Bars and Hotels.

Well...

Is there an Inspector
Srikanth in our zone?

Okay.

Sir, there's no one by the
name Srikanth in our zone.

The more you stay in your limits,
the work gets done faster.

Instead of referring
to him as an Inspector

...you could have mentioned that
he's a Crime Branch Officer.

Except for these two, no one
else should be in here. Excuse me?

Please sit down. Both of you.

I'm Srikanth.

I'm Girish Nair.
Madhuri's father.

Where's Madhuri?

Joe spoke to you, right?

I didn't speak to any Joe, sir.

I don't know anything
about your daughter.

But relax. We'll find her.

But she told me that...
- No. Not here.

If you break these walls,
there will be a breaking news.

Before your daughter finds out that
she's gone missing, the world will know.

Where is my daughter?
- Calm down madam.

Let's look for her.
Come with me.

Please follow me.

Sir, are you leaving already?

Are you done with the inquiry?

Inquiry?

What inquiry are you talking
about, Patil?

Sir, what about their statement?
- Huh?

Did you take their statement?
- No, sir.

Did you file an FIR?
- No, sir.

Good.

Thank you, sir.

You have your own car, right?
- Yes, over there.

Follow me.
- Okay.

Hello? Aryan?
- Hello sir.

I'd sent you all the details
about the girl, right?

Did you contact them?
- Yes, sir.

I want everyone present.
- Yes sir.

Her parents are with me.

Get her husband,
her boyfriend and the other guy, Joe...

Apparently he knows me.
- Yes sir.

Invite him personally
and bring him over.

Let me get to know him.
- Okay sir.

Most importantly, scan their phones
for messages, mails and calls.

Retrieve them all.
- Done sir.

I'll use a couple of outsiders
to trace the mobiles.

But remember that this
is a very sensitive case.

We need to handle
this very carefully.

Sure sir...
- So...

Don't involve too many people.

If need be,
use a couple of them.

Done sir.
- I'll be there.

Okay.
- See you.

Hello? Where are you?
You didn't make it today either.

I won't be coming to work
today, Saab.

My wife has run away from home.

She did what?
How could she run away?

Whatever it is, finish it today and
get to work from tomorrow, got it?

I'll be there, sir.

It's the same damn excuse every time.
Get here quickly!

Can I smell some coffee?

Sir...

Thank you.

So...

What's happening, Aryan?
- Everyone's here, sir.

Like you instructed,
I've assigned them their rooms.

I've retrieved all the data and
we're keeping a track of them.

Should I go to their
rooms and check?

Coffee!

Sir, your coffee.

Do you want some?

No, sir.
I'm good.

You continue...

Renjith and his mother
are in Room number 526.

Renjith is Madhuri's husband.

He's the head of
Fin-Tech Company.

We found out in our inquiry that
he came home for lunch as usual.

He went back to work and
stayed until midnight.

When Madhuri left home,
his mother too was with him.

His father was in
Mysuru for work.

We've informed him.
He's on his way back.

Next?

Vishal is in Room number 527.

Before Madhuri got married,
she was in a relationship with Vishal.

They both are from the same
town, Palakkad.

They both were working in a
company called Symbiosis.

Recently, he started his
own food products' start-up.

His Facebook status
says he's single.

But he's engaged to a
girl named Krithika.

Sir...

I smelled weed on him.
- Oh!

The offerings of Lord Madappa.
One should share it.

By the time we're done with this
painful case, we'll need some too.

Tell him to keep some for us.
- But, it's an offence.

Anything that grows on its
own on earth, is organic, right?

When one grows other crops,
we call them a farmer.

But if someone grows this,
we kick them to pulp and jail them.

Why?

Did you take my words very seriously?
- No.

Do you think I'm a
weed-smoking rookie?

I'm a good man.
I swear on Madappa.

Sir, shall we carry on?

In Room number 528
there's Joe Machedo.

Sir, he was born in Goa.
But he grew up in Bengaluru.

He owns a couple of night clubs
and restaurants in the city.

He is well connected with
celebrities and businessmen.

Sir, if you remember, we raided a
pub on the 100-feet road last year.

It belongs to him.

Okay.

Coffee awakes passion.

It's a trance.

If you ask me, do you know what's the most
important ingredient of a good coffee?

You have to pick the cherry
at the right moment.

If it's plucked too early,
it'll become useless.

You should let it ripen.

You then let it dry well...

Then crush it hard.

The same goes to the suspects.

You should let them
be on their own.

They'll end up suffering, melting in the
heat of repentance and end up tempered.

You then sauté and
powder them in the heat.

To get them to speak the truth.

It doesn't take a lot of effort.

Sir, it's getting late.
Shall we go?

I'll tell you when to question.

Aryan...

Where are the parents?
- Like I told you before.

Renjith and his mother
are in the same room,

...his father's on the
way back from Mysuru.

Not that. I asked you
about Madhuri's parents.

Veda?
- Ummm...

Did you find any
information about them?

No, sir. We didn't question them.

After all, they're the
parents of the missing girl.

Veda, can I tell you something
my experience has taught me?

Yes, sir.

Who are the foes and
who are the friends?

That is something
we can't decide.

There is a thin line between them.

Only time will decide.
Am I right?

Hmmm...

I told you that it's the Minister's matter
and that it should remain confidential.

Here you are with
your cyber army.

Sir, none of them work for us.

They've been hired
from the outside..

As per the data retrieved
from Joe's phone,

Madhuri sent him a message
to a number he called.

That number is said to be yours.

He's told her father the same.

I didn't receive any
call or message from him.

Did you check that number?

Yes sir.
Can you show it?

Hang on.

Sir, the number is being
traced in Hubballi.

I'll find out who it belongs to.

Good.

Was Madhuri's mobile traced?

Not yet sir.
We're trying to trace it.

Get done with that first.

I don't want to
hear any excuses.

My gut says that
Madhuri is doing fine.

Take a screen shot of that.
- Yes, sir.

I don't know whether Joe will kneel
before the God and confess to his sin.

He better bow down to me and
confess to the damn crime!

I wonder what’s happening.
I shouldn’t have listened to you.

I should’ve come to
Bangalore on my own.

None of this would’ve happened.

How would I know that things
would get this messed up?

I wonder where my
daughter is now.

Calm down!
We will resolve it.

Sorry to interrupt.

How is madam?

Are you doing well?

Sir, did you get any
information about Madhuri?

Did you find anything?

See, we called our relatives.

But we learnt that
they have no idea.

Are you okay, Madam?

Is the hotel comfortable?

Relax.
Did you have your breakfast?

Excuse me.
We didn't come here for a vacation!

Be patient. Calm yourself down.

My intuition says she's fine.

She might be with her friends.

No way. She was with somebody
from the police department itself.

It was Srikanth.
An Inspector. He took her.

A lady constable was with him.

Sir, we still haven't...
Please sit down.

You didn't give me
all the information.

Tell me what's happening.

Please, take a seat.

We were at home.

Wait, I’ll give the
phone to your father.

It’s Madhuri.

She sounds upset.
She wants to talk to you.

Mother, can you hear me?

First, tell me what happened.

I’ll tell you when I meet you.

Right now,
I just want to leave this place.

Fine. Where are you now?

Let me speak to Renjith.

I'm with Vishal.
- Who?

That friend of mine from Symbiosis?

You’ve met him before.
- Really?

His parents live
on the 100 feet road.

Remember?

So... are you at his place right now?

No. I'm at a coffee shop.

I left that house.

I can’t live there anymore,

Please, don’t make me go back.

Okay. You don't worry.

Give the phone to Vishal.

Vishal...

Me? What will I tell him?

Hello Uncle?
Vishal here.

Thank you for taking
care of my daughter.

Uncle, I was in the middle of
work when Madhuri called me.

She seems very troubled.

Well, you already know her.

How stubborn she can get.

Okay. I understand.
- Uncle, just hear me out.

Let me out of this.

Let me go home.

Why don’t you ask her to take
a hotel room for the night?

Considering the state she is in...

Do you think it’s safe to let
her stay alone in a hotel?

But Uncle...
- What if she harms herself?

Uncle...

Do you get what I'm saying?
- I do.

Let me do this.
We'll head to Bangalore right away.

Good idea.

Will you be with her at
least until we get there?

Are you mad?
I have a family to go back to.

I can't spend the bloody
night with her on the road.

Do you get that?

You can do one thing.

You come down here.

In the mean time,
get someone to pick her up

...and ask her to be
with them tonight.

Send someone to her.

I'll send you the location.

We drove the entire night.

In between the
conversations, Vishal called.

He said...

That he cannot stay with Madhuri.

That's when I called Joe for help.

I know since my
time in Bengaluru.

I was with the Income
Tax department back then.

Income Tax...

So...

He said he knows the Minister
and all of you well too.

He said that you will
pick her up and...

You would keep her at the station,
somewhere near Whitefield until we reach.

Did he say that he knows me?
- That's what he said.

He told me that he's spoken
to Inspector Srikanth and that.

...Madhuri's photos, location and
other details were shared with you.

Sir, how will you prove that your daughter
was picked up by an Inspector Srikanth?

Vishal told me.
He called me immediately.

Otherwise,
where else could she be?

That wasn't me.

Someone is bullsh****ng here.

Okay.

Between your daughter
and your son-in-law...

What was her relationship like?
Was she happy in her marriage?

Since you're asking...

She was not really unhappy.

You know it was just an
ordinary misunderstanding.

You know today's people.

Misunderstandings in
marriages are common.

They were happy otherwise.

What is Vishal like?

Vishal... is her friend.

Don't worry, sir.

Nobody can get past me.

Somehow I feel she's alright.

I promise.

Sir, only one out of the
three cameras are working.

Since the screw of the camera has loosened,
it's position has changed.

Sir, shall I get the CCTVs
of the neighbours checked?

At least a couple of them must
be pointing towards the road.

No way. Don't.

If you ask for the CCTV footage,
they might ask for the FIR.

Let's not get the public involved.
This involves a Minister.

There are chances of
the news spreading.

What is that?
- Footage from an ATM.

It's far from the road.
We didn't get any clue from it.

Play that video.

Skip that.

Show me that video.

Freeze it.

Zoom in on that Innova car.

Zoom in further.

Sir, seeing anything suspicious?

Shall I retrieve
details of the car?

No. Nothing.

Were you able to
reach Madhuri's phone?

No, sir.
The number's switched off.

We're trying to retrieve
her last call details.

Also, we're unable to find out who the
Hubballi number has been registered under.

Someone by the name Lakshmamma
is using that number.

Apart from that, we've not been
able to gain anymore information.

Okay.

That's our importance
piece of evidence.

Find out about the
one using the number.

Also, inform the local police
station to find more on Lakshmamma.

Yes sir.
- Keep me informed.

Order a coffee for me.

Which room did you
say Renjith is in?

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATION]

She's literally talking
rubbish about him.

What have we not done for?
Tell me.

Can you...? Hello?

Can you hear me?

There's a network issue here.

Hello?

Renju?!

I'll call you back.

What kind of hotel is this?
There's no network here.

The police have asked
us to stay in our rooms.

I ordered green tea like ages ago.
It still hasn't come.

It would've been faster if
I went to the mountains,

...plucked the damn thing
and brewed it myself.

Wait... Who are you?

Babe, how will the waiter know?

That the heart-broken husband prefers
green tea as the pain numbing alcohol?

I am... Inspector Srikanth.

Oh! I'm so sorry.
I'm Renjith.

Do you want me to get it for you?
- No. It's okay.

I can get it for you.
Let me do that, babe.

Son-of-a...
Throwing attitude, huh?!

I'll break your balls right
here, motherf*****!

I'm sorry, Madam.

Relax.

When did you last talk to Madhuri?

That was when she left home...

I don't know anything, sir.

I thought she'll return or that she's
out with her friends or something.

She's a mad woman.

She'll come back. Let it be.

She may or may not come.

The job of the police is
to look for those missing.

And look we will.
We'll look for sure.

We'll find the
hidden thieves too.

They will be caught.

It's about a girl anyway.

It won't stay hidden for long.

I'm her husband, sir.
Why are you investigating us?

Babe, there's a rule
in investigations.

Did you know?

Between a husband and wife...

No matter who goes missing.

The suspicion lies
on the one remaining.

Do you know why?

You would've tied the knots vowing
not to live without each other.

When one goes missing,
suspicion is a given.

But Girish told me that
she was with Vishal.

Enquire him.

We shall enquire. For sure.

But before that...

I wanted to hear your opinions.

But why sir?
I don't know anything.

She's a strong woman.

Nothing's going
to happen to her.

If you let us go,
we'll leave sir.

I have lots of meetings
lined up for tomorrow.

By all means, you can go.

You can attend your meetings.

You can go wherever you wish to.

The sooner you speak the truth,
the sooner you can leave.

But if it turns out to be a lie...

Today, it's her.
Tomorrow, it'll be you.

There won't be anyone
left to lodge a complaint.

I really don't know anything, sir.

I'd come home for lunch.

This girl hasn't made a
decent sambar even today.

The sambar needs more salt.

Get some pickle too.

Did you hear about it?

Harish’s wife
delivered yesterday.

The baby's healthy.

They got married
after you did, right?

Or was it before?

Ma, the entire world knows it.

He put in up on Facebook even
before he even told his parents!

Let’s have our lunch in peace.

Don’t get started.

Hey! Don’t stop her.

Let her finish her story.

Okay Ma.

You continue.

What happened after?

Tell me.

Go on.

I can't wait to hear it.

What's wrong now?

Harish is family, right?

When something good is
happening in the family...

Everybody should know, right?

Please, we know where you
were heading with that.

What now?

So, yearning for a grandchild
is also wrong is it?

Becoming a parent is what
brings joy at your age.

If you like kids so much,
why don't you have one?

Madhuri!

Ma, I’m sure that’s
not what she meant.

It was just a naive comment.

Madhu, apologise to mother.

Madhu...

If you want me to sit and eat
with you all again, apologise.

Why am I the one who
is always apologizing?

Don’t you think you
need to speak up too?

It’s okay, son.

I will apologize
if you want me to.

Please!

Stop playing the victim card.

I know you can't stand me.

That you want to
get him remarried.

I've had enough!

There is no peace here.

I should stop coming
to this house.

I tried calling
her multiple times.

She just didn't respond.

I had to stop her but
I was upset myself.

So babe, are you saying that
there's no more twist to this story?

What?

Because...

If the story was not going to turn,
I'd decided to go home and nap.

As a matter of 'fag', not a single call has
been made by you to Madhuri's after 2 A.M.

As another matter of 'fag', no call was
made from Madhuri's number to yours either.

No calls other than ones with your office
and your father-in-law have been recorded.

Except...

For those messages you
sent laced with love, babe!

[POPULAR ROMANTIC SONG]I can't sit in one place anymore...

Neither can I stand at a spot anymore...

Things have gone haywire and
I can't express myself anymore...

I get the heebie-jeebies!

When puberty hits,
the heart takes it hard!

Yours lovingly, Manish Sood.

You never told me about
this twist in the story.

How do I look?

Good?

If you say yes,
let's send Amma out for a while.

This is an invasion
of my privacy.

I'm going to speak to my lawyer.

Speaking of going official?

Taking things legally?

Fine babe!
Let's go to the Police station.

Lodge a complaint that
your wife's missing.

Out of suspicion against you, they'll
lodge a case under Section 359 or a 362.

If you think you'll
get bored all alone,

...let's take your mother
in on the harassment case.

What say babe?

Let the news spread to every
media house in Karnataka.

Let every cop tweet about this.
Sounds great?

Aryan, call up the media waiting
for some Masala news for the day.

Do you even know who I am?

The President of the
Women's association.

That bitch Madhuri and
whoever the other guy is...

They're behind this.

This is their way of dragging
our family name into the mud.

I never brought him up like this.

She never cared for my son.

Come on son. Let’s go!
- Aye!

Stop! Everyone in this
room knows the truth.

Amma, just relax.

Sit down.
I'll handle this.

The trouble wasn't between the hearts,
it lay between the legs.

'Despair in the bedroom'

'Husband vows for a celibate marriage,
hurt wife leaves thanks to inaction'

...will be the title
of the complaint.

It was a girl after
all, she wasn't wrong.

What?! What are you saying?

I don't understand.

What is it son?
What is he saying?

I don't know what
he's getting at.

Woah!

You both are crafty as hell.

Your mother too is acting
like she knows nothing.

I don't know.
I've no idea what you're talking about.

Let's make you understand.

But before that...

What time did you get
home last night, babe?

I don't really remember.

Maybe 2 or 2.30 in the night.

A meeting until 3 in the night?

We were working till late and then
we took the discussion outside.

In this context,
when you say 'We'...

We is you and Manish, right?!

[MOCKINGLY LAUGHS]

It's all a game of sticks...

Babe...

I know what you do
and what you don't.

You're a man of mystery.

Your wife's gone missing,
yet you're out partying.

Was it out of happiness
that she left you?

Or was it out of relief
that your path is now clear?

What are you accusing me of?!

You think I did
something to Madhuri?

Are you out of your f... mind?!

I've never seen an incompetent
police officer like you till date.

It's so simple to
solve this case.

But you are behaving like
a cop from a TV soap.

Really?!

Babe, shall I tell you a story?

The protagonist in this
story is a big businessman.

A businessman is bound to have a
Personal Assistant or a Manager.

With the two God-gifted eyes of his,
one eye was on the business...

The other, on his PA.

He was leading a great life.

Amidst this, in order to prove the world
that he's a man and a normal one at that,

He married an innocent girl too.

But the bliss that existed
between him and the PA

...was never seen
between him and his wife.

Finally it all burst like
a pimple left to grow.

After the fight, she leaves.

And... the husband is relieved.

He then gave a
contract to get her killed

...and arranged a tomb
for her to rest in peace!

Assuming that she's dead,
our protagonist would've partied.

I can see it in your eyes.

You're the type...

That cannot hold
it in your pants.

Assuming you get
away in this case...

Meet me personally.

'Why some men think that men
understand men in bed better than men'

A topic we should ponder
with our hearts open.

With our hearts open...

Just the hearts...

You bloody as*****

Leave him alone!

Let him come at me.
I will trash him.

Babe, you're very lucky.

Your mother's with you.

Is Lakshmamma here?

Yes, sir.

We found out that the number has been
registered in the name of a woman in Hubballi.

The woman lost her phone
three years ago in Bengaluru.

She never lodged a complaint about the
phone nor did she get the number barred.

So, we don't know who made
the calls from the number.

The lady knows nothing.
But the investigation is continuing.

Sit down.

Coffee?
- Thank you sir.

How long will it take you
to get the call details?

Did you check who else received
calls from that number?

To retrieve them,
we'll need to register an FIR, right?

Let the interrogation end...

Did you cross check Renjith's story?
Did you speak to Manish?

The story checks out.

They indeed left at 2 AM.

The hotel staff confirmed it.

When we went through
Joe's number...

Looks who he's messaged.

This one here.

[MIMICS A HORSE]

Hello sir.
- My stallion!

Chill bruh!

Why are you worried?
Don't be scared.

[IN MALAYALAM]
What's up, bro?!

Weed in the air, huh?!

Oh no, sir.

Not a regular affair.

It's a rare occurrence.

But I'll quit.
- Really?

Sir, I really don't know anything.

I haven't done anything.

Even though I appear
desperate and sad...

Nobody understands my woes!

She just said she wanted help.

Only when we met did I learn that
she'd walked out of her home.

That was it sir.

If you didn't like her,
why did you meet her?

Sir, she called.

She sounded
desperate and scared.

She said she wanted help.

When I met her,
I realised that she'd left her house.

Turned into a stallion, didn't you?

What kind of 'help'
did you think it was?

What do I know, sir?

I swear!
I really don't know anything.

But from what she said...

Her life in that
house was unbearable.

Sir, she had no
freedom in that house.

The husband ill-treated her.

She had issues with
her mother-in-law.

She had no friends.

Her parents weren't
with her either.

She was suffering
from depression.

She was an educated girl.

All of this caused a lot of stress.

What are you so upset about?

What was wrong with what I said?

You weren't wrong.

But Renjith and I’ve
discussed enough about it.

We will have a child...
when the time is right.

You're the one delaying it…

Do you know how much
Renjith likes kids?

Just liking kids isn’t enough
to become a father, right?

I'm sure you know it too.

What are you trying to say?

That he won't be
an amazing father?

He will be a hundred times
better parent than you'll ever be.

Why only a hundred times?

If he wants to become a father,
he has to be a man, right?

What are you saying?

That my son is not a man enough?

I know how many
girls have liked him!

Sure they all liked him.

But how many of them
were ready to marry him?

I remember how long his profile was
languishing on the matrimony site.

At least, I didn't know him when
I said yes to the proposal.

But Mom,
you know Renjith very well right?

Will you two shut your traps?!

No! I won't!

It's time you all
accepted the truth!

Bloody...

You wretched woman!

Let me go!

Vishal, I refuse to
go back to that house.

You don't know that family.

Either they will kill me.

...Or I will kill myself.

What rubbish!
Don’t talk nonsense.

Why have you not spoken
about it with anyone else?

Why don't you tell the
elders in your house?

You know I discuss my issues
only with you in this city.

Isn't that why I came to you?

Why don't you do this?

Just go home and explain
it to your folks.

I’m pretty sure,
they will support you.

It's not that simple.

They know we’ve
been having issues.

You know right?

That Girish is my step-dad.

When I was six,
my Mom married again.

After that, all my stepdad did
was find faults in me and yell.

He would vent out the
anger on my mother.

I begged her time and again,
to walk out of the marriage.

But she never did.

She took all the abuses
and stayed silent.

I don't want that.

It's my life.

Can’t we be together?

We have our reasons.

You and me?
- Yes.

You're joking, right?

Have you forgotten that
I'm engaged to Krithika?

I'm getting married in two months.

Oh! Congratulations.

Why didn't you tell
me this before?

I... was about to...

Did I not tell you?

Probably you forgot, but...

Maybe you're right.

I should go back home.

Hello Amma?

Dear, are you doing good?
- Yes, mother.

What's wrong?
You sound upset.

Amma, can I come home?

Sure. But what happened?

I'll stay with you for a while.

Is something wrong?
Is Renjith coming along too?

No Amma. I will be alone.
- When are you coming?

[GIRISH] Give me the phone.

Why are you behaving like this?
- What's your problem?

I don't want to talk to you.
Give the phone to mother.

Why won't you talk to me?
Are you in trouble again?

I'm talking to you!
- I don't want to listen to you.

Pass the phone to mother.

Are you out to ruin the
family's name again?

I don't care. It's your problem.
- Oh! Is it now?

You are the biggest problem!

What trouble have you
got into this time?

I'm giving the phone to Vishal.
- Vishal?! Who?

Who is he?
Where is he?

Hello?

You just talk to him.

Who?
- Father.

Tell him that I'm not
going back to that house.

Hello?
- Who the hell are you?

Why are you meddling in
their family matters?

Uncle, are you aware
of what you're saying?

How dare you!

Why are you messing
with their lives?

Uncle, can you calm down?
- Who the hell are you to tell me that?!

Quit talking and take her home!

Come down and take
her wherever you want.

Man, you don't know who
you're messing with.

Is this your father?
He's lost it!

Madhuri...

What do I do?

Where do I go now?

What's the point of
living like this?

People are watching us.

Give me your father's number.

I'll make him understand.

Now that I know what to expect.

I'll deal with him. Okay?

Come.

Madhuri, why don't you freshen up?

Go on.

Continue...

Nothing more sir.
That was it.

So you took her home.

A quick one before bye-bye, is it?

My stallion!
- No sir. Nothing of that sort.

Looks like you've gotten way
too comfortable in the room.

Nice stuff bro.

Where is it?

Where have you kept it?

Come on. Take it out!

Take it out man!

TAKE IT OUT!

Give it to me!

Do whatever it is that you do.

Huh?
- Do it I say!

Draw a couple of lines.

Come on bro!
Let's have some fun!

An artist indeed!

Clearly knows his art well!

Good.

Okay. Now continue...

No!

Continue with the story!

So...

You say that you didn't
take Madhuri home...

She was creating a ruckus...

She was shouting.

Everyone in the coffee
shop was looking at us.

She kept saying that she would run to
the road and jump in front of a vehicle.

That was when I called
her dad and told him.

That I'm putting her in a hotel.

He said that it isn't safe and were
worried that she might attempt suicide.

So, that got me thinking and I...

I...

I didn't know if my fiance
would appreciate it.

As a matter of fact,
she doesn't even know Madhuri.

She has never heard of her.

So...

I decided to call and check with her.

She told me that she was with
her friends or office colleagues.

She said something about a
dinner and that she was out.

Everything worked out in your
favour, didn't it bro?!

Sir, I thought somebody would
come and pick Madhuri up.

When did you guys go home?

Around 10 P.M. or 10.15...

I'm not really sure.

After a while,
I received a call from her father.

He asked me for my address.

I thought...

Somebody was coming
to pick Madhuri up.

Before the cops came to pick Madhuri up,
what were you both doing at home?

We didn't do anything.

Sir, I'm speaking the truth.
Really.

Sir, nothing happened.

My stallion!

Bullshitting me, aren't you?

Let me take a detailed look
of what happened last night.

As soon as you got home,
Madhuri and you got down to business.

That's Goddamn wild man!

Right when the two of you
are immersed in each other...

Your fiance walks in.

Unable to see you
both in that position,

...she loses her cool and
whacks Madhuri on the head.

Madhuri dies.

Fearing that the news will get
out, you hide the body.

She asks you to finish the
story you started and leaves.

Damn boy!

That's it, bro!

That was it!

No, sir.

That was not what happened!

We were just talking.

I've spoken to your dad.

I've sent the location too.

Someone will come
any moment now.

Why the grumpy face?
It'll be okay.

We were just talking
when she walked in.

You better not forget
me after returning.

Will you call me
once you get back?

Vishal!
- Hey!

She didn't even give
me time to explain.

She slapped me and Madhuri went...

I'm sorry. I'm leaving!
- Get lost!

You mean your girlfriend will
slap any girl you talk to, is it?

Does she love you that much?

No, sir.

She recognised Madhuri.
- Oh!

So, she recognised Madhuri?
- Yes.

Didn't you say that Krithika
didn't know Madhuri at all?

Sir...

She saw her photos.

As in our photos together.

Show me the photos!

But the video's deleted.

Why are you messing
around, Dinesha?

Sometimes it's a photo
and then it's a video.

Is it a photo or a video?

Sisterf*****!

You know the kick from cocaine,
want to see how it hits when I thrash you?!

I know the video
hasn't been deleted.

Will you show me or should I
get it from the Cyber Cell?

I really don't know. I swear!

I deleted the video, sir.

Sigh! Truth isn't what you and I
tell, my son!

Let's assume you're saying the truth.

How did you skip the part where you
were fuc*** her and recording that?

I did meet her once. That is true.

But nothing happened after that.

Both of us realised
it was a mistake, sir.

A mistake!

Madhuri was upset when
she came home to you.

You read her situation.

You took advantage of the fact
that she was married to a gay man.

Madhuri wanted to get close
to you but you rubbed her in

...the wrong way telling that
you're engaged to Krithika.

When she threatened to tell everything
that took place, you got scared...

You sent your friends to pick her up,
raped her together and killed her.

You guys then threw her body away...

Then got back to your
lives like before.

After that, you called her
father and convinced him

...that she's safely
with Inspector Srikanth.

I think that is the mothefu****
thing that happened!

Wait a minute!

Wait up now!

You have her sex video.

You would've blackmailed her.

When she refused,
you would've forced her to come.

When she did come,
you took her home and...

No, sir.

Sir, why are you telling me this?

I didn't do anything like that.

I really didn't.

I swear sir.
I called her father multiple times.

You can check my phone, sir.
If that was the case...

Why would I be calling
him so many times?

Despite the fight with
Krithika, I went after Madhuri.

I went after her even
though Krithika stopped me.

Then I saw her speak
to a lady constable.

A lady constable?
- Yes.

Yes. She was a cop.

But she was not in uniform.
She was wearing plain clothes.

How are you sure
that it was the cops?

Sir, she called out her name.
- Madhuri Menon.

She also said that she was
with Inspector Srikanth.

I then called Madhuri's
father and he confirmed it.

He said that he sent them.
[DOOR BUZZES]

Coming!

By the time I return,
get me the video.

Son of a b****!

How's your investigation going on?
- I'm on it, sir.

We'll find the girl soon.

Has she still not been found?

I got sloshed last night.
I'm still hungover.

I'm losing my mind.

A painful tooth is making it worse.

If you find out
anything, let me know.

I'll go now.

Yes sir. Thank you.

Okay. I'll inform him.

Before Madhuri's phone
got switched off,

...a tower in Bengaluru
East has picked the signal.

Did I not tell you
that she would be fine?

My experience is of ten years.

How could that mislead me?

No way! Not a chance!

Inform her parents.
They'll be overjoyed.

Sure sir.
- Veda?

Sir?

You don't go. I'll do it myself.
- Okay sir.

All okay?

I think we can relax.

Madhuri might be okay.
- Uma?

Her phone was on and the signal was last
traced on the outskirts of Bengaluru.

Right now it's in an
out-of-coverage area.

But our team is working on it.

Is it?
- Yeah.

That's okay, madam.
It's my duty.

Do you have anything else to share?
- Nothing more.

The reason I'm asking is...

If a missing complaint is
filed and an FIR is prepared,

...I won't be a part of
the investigation anymore.

I can't even guarantee if the next officer
will be honest in the investigation.

That is all.
- Nothing of that sort.

Okay sir.

You never told me that Madhuri
was not your own daughter.

Dammit!

Hello?
- Yes sir?

Where is Inspector Srikanth?
- He'll be there.

You're wasting a
busy man's time.

He's on his way, sir.

Tell him that he's making the
friend of a Minister wait.

Not an ordinary criminal. Got it?

Yes! A criminal it is!

Sorry, sir.

There's an inseparable bond
between those crooks and us.

I don't know if cops get to taste the
holy water in a temple every day...

But we won't miss sharing a cup
of coffee with the crooks.

But meeting someone of your stature
is a blessing we didn't seek.

Why would anyone be here
if we weren't asked for?

You sought me out and I'm here.

Do you think I'm jobless?

I've thousands of
things to deal with.

On top of that,
despite paying tax promptly,

I have to bear with
the tag of a criminal.

But I'm glad...

I was brought to a
decent place like this.

Else, my reputation
would be on the line.

Let that be.

Why did you want to meet me?

Another thing...

I stepped in only because IT
office Girish asked for my help.

If need be,
you can ask the Minister too.

He's a good friend of mine.

Yes, sir.

The Minister has asked
me to handle with care.

That's exactly why you're
in a good hotel like this.

You won't have to face the media.
- Yeah.

Can I offer you
something to drink?

I've waited for so long that
I've started to feel at home.

Sir, if we start drinking with
every crook we interrogate,

...an entire bar won't cut it.

Shit. I'm sorry.

I called you a crook.
- Bloody hell!

I didn't really mean it.
I'm sorry.

Anyway, thanks for offering.

Out of curiosity,
can I ask you something?

How much do you drink in a week?

All I can.
I've never kept a tab.

You seem like a very
interesting personality.

Let's make it more interesting.

Did Girish, the girl's father
ask you to call the Minister?

Nah!
He doesn't know any Minister.

He called me up.

In fact, I was in Praveen
Pai's birthday party.

Praveen Pai? Apex Builders?

He's a close friend of mine.

So, we celebrated his
birthday in my Pub.

CHEERS!
[IN UNISON]

[INAUDIBLE CHATTER]

See who's here!

Hello IT sir?
How are you?

This is Girish.
I can't hear you Joe!

Give me a second.
I can't hear you either.

I'll be back.

Tell me, sir.
- I can hear you now.

See, Joe. I need your help.
Urgently.

What happened? All okay?

It's about my daughter.
She has walked out of her house, Joe.

Now, she's with a friend
of hers near Whitefield.

Oh my god! Whitefield's
quite far from here, sir.

Oh, is it?

How about I send a friend
of mine to pick her up...

...and arrange a hotel
room for the night?

Oh no! She won't go with
a stranger just like that.

She's very stubborn.

What if she does
something to herself?

What do we do now?
It's almost 10 P.M.

I was thinking if you
could use your influence.

Get a cop to pick her up and
keep her in a police station

...somewhere around that area.

So, we could go there
directly and pick her up.

Fine sir.
That is possible.

Sir, you send me her phone number,
photographs on my Whatsapp now.

I'll see what can be done.
I'll speak to the Minister.

He's a close friend of mine.

That's fine. Great help.
- Not a problem.

Thank you very much.

Sir, Namaskara!
- When did you return from Singapore, Joe?

I came last night.

Lot of investment
opportunities in Singapore.

I'll tell you when we meet.

Sir, I need a help.
- Tell me.

A friend's daughter is
stuck in a personal mess.

I needed the help of the police.

All they need to do is pick
her up from her location

...and protect her in the
police station for 5-6 hours.

I can't call up a Police station.

Instead, I'll tell Inspector
Srikanth everything.

You give him the details
and he'll handle the rest.

Okay. Thank you, sir.

Hello?

[INSPECTOR SRIKANTH]
Stop right there! What?!

Did I call you?

Inspector Srikanth called up.

If your name's Srikanth and
if you're from the department.

It was you who called.

Was it the same voice?
- I was in a damn pub!

The music was too loud.
I couldn't make it out.

Okay.

Continue...

Did the Minister ask
you to contact me?

Sir, my friend Girish's daughter
is stuck in a small mess.

All that needs to be done is to protect
her in the police station for 5-6 hours.

Her relatives may be around.
But her father doesn't trust anyone.

Why do we have
get into the mess?

I'll send you the details.
Help her out.

Thank you.
What did you say your name was?

Okay sir.

So you expect me to
believe all of this?

I've told you everything I knew.

It's up to you whether
you believe me or not.

Why am I being
dragged into this?

Later, Girish called me.

Your men got me here.

I'm trying to make sense of it all.

Here you are,
trying to interrogate me.

Can I ask you something instead?

When the f*** do I
go back to my life?

When you tell me the hard
truth over an easy lie.

Any minute then.

Sir, I feel the
girl's gone back home.

Malayalis are very intelligent.

They don't get lost so easily.

My dear Joe, the taxpayer!

Something is
missing in your story.

How about you do this?

Start the story from first.

This time, make sure you
include Mottai in the story.

Mottai? Sir, do you know him?

He's like a brother from
another mother to me!

Shall I call him?
- Wow! He's a close friend of mine too.

So close that I haven't
been able to get hold of him!

If ever I do, I'll gun him
down in a point-blank range.

Call him.

You flex your friendship
with the Minister. I get it.

How dare you send you the details
of a girl to a human trafficker?

Was that not wrong?

Human... What?
- Wasn't that wrong, you Bast***!

Sir!

He runs high-end Spas.
That is all.

They're not brothels.

I'm telling you the truth, sir.

Just because the rich go there,
a brothel can't be called spa,

...and a procurer can't
be called a pimp, is it?

Your network itself is messed up.

I feel like I'm being
too courteous to you.

I have to. You're the friend
of the Minister, after all.

If it was anyone else in your place...

I would've thrashed you, hung you
upside down and stuff it up your...

But what can I do?

You're a reputed man.
You pay your taxes.

You must have some explanations ready.
Don't you?

You have an explanation, right?

So, please...

Sir, I know you're a fine officer.

But Jesus...

I know nothing about this.

Until you told me...

I had no idea that
Mottai was such a man.

I swear.

Fine. Let's start afresh.

When you received
Madhuri's photograph...

Start from there.

Get me Vodka please!

That's how you keep up! All the best!

What's up, bro?!
Are you going to score tonight?

Shit man! I know her dad!

Come on.
- Listen! Send this to Mottai!

He'll feel the heat just
looking at the picture!

This was all that happened.

I forwarded the
picture just for fun.

So you did tell
him where she was.

Why couldn't Mottai
have picked her up?

Well... Maybe he did, sir.

Wait! No! He didn't sir!

I don't know sir.

Weren't you saying
something else before?

That I called you and
took Madhuri's number?

Yes sir. I spoke to you.

Another lie, sir.

You...

You have my phone number, right?
Call me.

It's switched off.

Neither did you call
me, nor did I call you.

Sir...

You have my callers'
list, right?

Please check it yourself.

Hello sir?

Everyone's getting restless.

They're threatening to
bring their lawyers in.

What do I do, sir?
- I'll call you back.

Okay sir.

So, you want us to do as
you instruct us. Right?

We've already traced
the caller's number.

The call was made from
Hubballi by a Lakshmamma.

What? Lakshmamma?!

I've no clue, sir.

The call I just got...

Do you know who it was?

I'm sorry.

Madhuri is dead.

What?!

Her body has been found.

Oh God!

The fact that Madhuri was
picked up is something

...only you,
her father and the Minister know.

So who was the fixer who picked
up Madhuri in the name of Srikanth

...and turned the
tides of this game?

If you passed the information to
Mottai, the fixer...

Must be you, right?

Come on! Mr. Dealer...

What was the price
that was fixed?

Sir, everything I told you is true.

How did she die, sir?

Sir, I'll call you back.

How will I show my
face to her father?

All my assumptions about you...

Turned out to be true.

You're just a waste of time!

By the way, Madhuri
isn't dead yet.

We're still looking for her.

Srikantha,
here I am working for you.

You're out to question
me, are you?

You think you're the only player
in the department, don't you?

There are many men in there
who are ready to work for me.

The beat police have told
me that with a girl's body,

...they've found a
couple of other bodies.

Pray to God that the body
doesn't belong to Madhuri.

If it is indeed hers...

The cop who does undercover operations
will be sent underground forever.

Be careful.

My gut feeling says that
she can't be Madhuri.

Because we traced her
number a while ago and

...the number was active
outside Bengaluru.

I'll get it rechecked again.

You have no other go.

I had a lot of expectations
from you, Srikanth.

You've disappointed me a lot.

It is true that you told me to help
the girl and that I couldn't do so.

But I'm not incapable, sir.

Your friend Joe is no naive kid.

He's turning out to be the prime suspect
from the investigation done so far.

He didn't send me the
girl's details to me.

He sent it to a
human trafficker.

We're trying to trace
that number too.

What are you trying to say?

I'm hoping the body in the
mortuary doesn't belong to Madhuri.

I'm hoping that your trust
in me doesn't get wasted.

I'm hoping to keep up my
promise with Madhuri's parents.

That is all.

What's happening here?

Don't any of you get the
seriousness of this case?

What the f*** are you
people doing here?

Don't any of you have any insider
friends in the department?

The Patrol police have
found a dead body.

If we couldn't find
out this tiny detail...

We are not on the right track.

Check who the body belongs to.

Veda!
- Sir?

Here's what you'll do.

Take her parents to the
mortuary to identify the body.

Take someone with you.
- Yes sir.

Just pray it's not her.

Sir, are you okay?

Doctor, when will the
Post-mortem take place?

It's been scheduled
for tomorrow.

Cover the bodies, please.
- I'm fine.

Cause of death?

It looks like a drug
deal gone wrong.

We've found four
bodies, including hers.

This needs an inquest.

Find out about the station's
limits the crime took place in

...and about the
officer-in-charge.

Subramanya from Crime
Branch is handling it.

The Assistant Commissioner
of Police is in the spot.

One more thing...

The Narcotics bureau has
received the information.

They'll be here anytime.

In the end, only promises remain.

I'm sorry.
I tried my best but...

Another thing...

Your daughter's body was found
with the bodies of drug dealers.

You got her killed, right?

How you could do that?

Come out with the truth.

Tell them what you told her.

Otherwise, I'll speak up.

Shut up!

How dare you to talk
to me like that?

I have done more for you
than a real father would ever do.

What did you give me in return?

Boyfriend at the age
of sixteen, drug parties...

I had to beg the media not
to publish your photograph.

Rum in the flask,
Ganja in the bag.

The unspeakable
things you’ve done…

Today, you’ve walked out of your
house and are roaming with some bastard.

I know how to put
you in your place.

I will not rest until then.

You promised to safeguard my daughter with
unconditional love until your last breath.

That was your promise
while marrying me.

I don't get it.

In a huge city like this, why did
you choose Joe of all for help?

She was your daughter.

What was the need to get her
picked up and holed in a police station?

What else could I have done?

I did what I thought was right.

I called her husband.
He didn't respond.

That moron Vishal
also didn't do anything.

My only option was Joe.
How could I have known more?

How?

Don't you trust me?

Even if she wasn't my own daughter,
was it wrong to be strict with her?

But isn't that out
of love for her?

Watching all of this...

It all feels like
a mystery to me!

Veda, record their statements.

Brief the case developments
to Mr. Subramanya.

Tell him that we're on the
lookout for killers since morning.

I'll talk to him.
- Okay sir.

Until this is resolved, you
both will have to stay in the city.

It's okay.

Not that dammit!
Give me the phone.

Hello? Tell me.
- Sir, we have a situation.

Is the body hers?

Yes sir. Somebody
has murdered her.

Sir?

What do we do now?

Did you find out
who's behind all of this?

Till now, everyone seems
to be telling different stories

...but they all seem
to be telling the truth.

Except for your friend, Joe.

Sir, when we checked the CCTV
footage from the location where

...Madhuri was picked up, we
can see Mottai's car passing by.

If this case needs solving,
we'll have to arrest Mottai.

To arrest Mottai, an
FIR needs to be filed.

All our names will be mentioned.

Mine, yours and
your friend Joe's.

Damn!

Did that scumbag
really turn out this filthy?

Not to forget the drug mafia!

Sir, I did my best in
handling this case,

...handling everyone else
without troubling anyone.

But once a formal
investigation begins,

...this case will be taken
over by the Crime Branch.

Here's what you'll do.

Hand over this case
to the Crime Branch.

Let them begin
their investigation.

You continue with your work.

I'll do whatever it is
that needs to be done.

Okay, sir.

Sir...
- Carry on.

Hello? Aryan?
- Tell me, sir.

Release everyone.

Transfer all the information we've
collected to the Crime Branch.

Sure sir. Are we done here sir?

Our work is done.

But it might begin
all over again.

Let's see how it goes.

All of you are responsible
for Madhuri's plight today.

Maybe, all of you
wanted this for her.

All of you can leave now.

Sorry, I forgot.

A couple of hours ago, Madhuri's
dead body has been found.

She's dead.

Maybe you wanted
this to happen, right?

Also, this case has been
handed over to the Crime Branch.

It won't take long for
the truth to come out.

If you know a good
lawyer, contact them.

Pray to your Gods because
no one else can save you now.

Oh God! Dear God!

Oh God! Dear God!

The man’s got some madness

Can’t put a finger on this mess

The man's got his madness

Is he the devil or even worse?

Oh help me god!

I can’t read him right

He’s a mystery, pure mastery

Is he the real story?

Oh God! Dear God!

Oh God! Dear God!

The man’s got some madness

Can’t put a finger on this mess

The man's got his madness

He's a master
Recipe for disaster

You... put it back!

Who are you?

Did she send you?

Where the hell is she?
- She's right by the godown.

Please sir. Let me go.
I've done nothing wrong.

Please sir.
- I would have...

If only I knew how to forgive.

The man’s got some madness

Can’t put a finger on this mess

The man's got his madness

Is he the devil or even worse?

Oh help me god!

I can’t read him right

He’s a mystery, pure mastery

Is he the real story?

Oh God! Dear God!

Oh shit!

Revathi!

In the end, stacks
of money saved you.

Hey Cheater!

What a mastermind you must be
to have assumed that I would've

...hidden the money here and
would eventually come here.

21 hours!

In just 21 hours...

We grew so distant!

I think there are no
friends and enemies in life.

I think we are all frenemies.

Life constantly
gives you chances.

But fate...

I don't...

I don't wish to kill you.

But...

The only thing that
doesn't betray is...

Silence.

I feel this might
be our last meeting.

Why do you sound like
you're my boyfriend?

I'm serious.

I've decided that I will
not let any clue behind.

If at all I do miss,
cleaning up...

They want quality consignment.

We want a lot of money!

This is the right
chance to make money.

As if this is your
own consignment...

This is seized evidence.

Nobody will know
we've embezzled it!

Nothing will go wrong.
I'll take care of it.

Of course you should. You
are from their gang after all.

Look at the scumbags
you've teamed up with.

I know what I'm risking by taking a
police officer like you into a dope deal.

Inside every cop, lies a thief.

Inside every thief, lies a cop.

They tremble in fear while we
pull the trigger with authority.

If they find out
that you're a cop.

I don't know about you.

But they will not spare me.

As much as I find it
easy to kill a criminal,

...I find it easy enough
to forget the pain.

But you...

Fine. Let that be.

We give them the consignment.

We take the moolah
and just keep going.

Having run away from the loan sharks
all my life, I'm finally standing here.

From the money we get, I'll clear my
loans and bid goodbye to this city forever.

I can trust you, right?

Despite being a cop, I've
come this far with you on a deal.

Yet you're doubting me.

Great.

Why is the Minister calling now?

My phone battery
is about to die.

Greetings Mr. Minister.

What's up, Srikantha?

How are you? What are you up to?

The usual.

Special investigations and
undercover duties as a driver.

How are you, sir?
- I'm doing good.

I would feel better
without this tooth ache.

I've recommended you for a promotion.
- Thank you, sir.

A friend of mine needs something done.
- Tell me, sir.

You'll have to pick up a girl and hold
her in the station for a couple of hours.

Her parents will
come by and take her.

Can you do it or
should I talk to Bhaskar?

Come on, sir.

Why go to them for such
a small matter? I'm here.

Fine then.

Send me the number and
the photograph of the girl.

I'll handle the rest.

Take down my
friend Joe's number.

He'll give you the
rest of the details.

Consider it done, sir.

Sir, tell me the number.
- 9 8 8 5 3

Call him right away.

Got it, sir. I'll solve this.
- Okay.

Do you really need
this in between?

Men like him ensure we
get a job under a scheme.

When a minister asks you to
jump, you only ask how high.

Only then will our position
in the department, go higher.

Until we turn into the winning
horse and people begin to bet on us,

...we'll have to strive hard
like a donkey under others.

Tell me the number.
- 98853...

Dammit!

My phone died.
Dial the number on your phone.

I've dialled already. Take it.

Hello? Joe?

This is Inspector
Srikanth speaking.

Did the Minister ask
you to contact me?

Yes. Tell me.

Sir, my friend Girish's daughter
is stuck in a small mess.

All that needs to be done is to protect
her in the police station for 5-6 hours.

Can't her relatives...?

Her relatives may be around.
But her father doesn't trust anyone.

Why do we have
get into the mess?

I'll send you the
details. Help her out.

Keep her in the
station for 5-6 hours.

Her parents will
pick her up later.

Fine. Okay sir.

Thank you.

There you go.

Keep your phone switched on.
They'll send the details of the girl.

Whose photograph is it?

Just tell me when you get it.

Who is she man? She looks good.

Marry her with the money
you get and settle down.

One shouldn't
repeat the mistakes.

To Whitefield?

Are we going to the Whitefield?
- Yes.

What if we get our call now?

Ask them to wait.

We'll pick the girl,
drop her and then go.

I think we
shouldn't do this job.

What if we luck out
and they suspect us?

Don't say anything.
Just come with me.

We're doing this job,
tonight. It's decided.

Fine. How about this?

Drop me here.

Finish you job and come
back here to pick me up.

I don't know who the girl is.

At least if you're with me, she'll believe
that a lady constable is with me, right?

Give me the details of the girl.

Madhuri Menon.

Her father's Girish.

Hello?
- Yes?

Hello? Dad, who is
coming to pick me up?

I've sent someone. Haven't
they picked you up yet?

No one has come
to pick me up yet.

Wait for a while.
They'll be coming.

We are on our way.

Babe, do you see
the woman there?

Go and ask her if she's Madhuri.

If she says yes, tell
her that her father Girish

...has asked her to
wait at the station.

What?! Why me?
What will you be doing?

Listen darling!

Be a sport!

Shouldn't a lady constable accompany
me if I have to pick a lady up?

How difficult is it for you
to act like a constable?

Go on!

Oh God!
- Go!

I hope they don't call us now.

Keep this.

Just for horror!

The sooner you get back, the
faster we'll get our money and...

We'll be rich, b****!

Madhuri Menon?
- Yes.

I'm from the police station
and am with Inspector Srikanth.

He's waiting in the car.

Your father Girish, he
sent us to pick you up.

Come with us to the...
- Vishal!

Police? Your uniform?
- Come on!

As if coming at this hour wasn't enough,
and you want me to be here in the uniform?

Call and check with your
father. It's getting late.

Dad, why did you
send the police?

Come! It's already late!
- I'll wait here until you come.

I'm not going anywhere.
- You can talk in the car. Let's go.

Get in.

You must be a big shot!

Your father involved a
minister for something so small.

It's getting late. Shall we go?

[MOBILE PHONE RINGS]

Hello?
- Hello Amma!

We're on our way to you.

Why would you send the police?
- You just wait there.

You must be elated that your daughter will
spend the night in a police station, right?

We've know one else there.

Please try to understand
and wait for us.

Looks like you don't give two hoots about
your status and reputation now, isn't it?

Why are you talking like this?

Instead of getting into this
mess, I should've died on the road.

Hello? Madhuri?

Can you hear me?

Please don't be worried.
We'll get to you soon.

Hello? Madhuri?

I know it's not pleasant to take
you the police station at this hour.

Do you have any other
place where I can drop you?

No. There is no other place.

Okay.
[MESSAGE TONE]

'UNITY COMPLEX BASEMENT. 15 MINUTES.
WILL NOT WAIT'

Can we push this to a bit later?

If we they don't see us today,
we'll never see them again.

Looks like it'll be late by the
time we drop her and head there.

We've got something
urgent to finish.

Can we do it first?

I'll drop you to the
police station after that.

It's very urgent. If you don't mind...
- Do whatever you want.

I'm in no hurry to sit in
the police station anyway.

Just wait here.
We'll be back in five.

Okay.

Get the bag.
- Got it.

What took you so long?

I thought you chickened out.

On our way here, we
had some work to finish.

We had to meet someone.

He is...

Hopefully not a cop, I presume.

I'm Nakul.
- I'd told you about Nakul, right?

It's not about
what a loser I am.

All that matters is the cocaine I
have and the money you have.

Stop right there! Dirtbag!

Sir, he's a cop.

A cop? Who told you that?

The girl in the car did.
- He's not.

Just that or did she also tell
you what kind of a cop I am?

Sir, I told you not
to trust this cheat.

If I don't send them
to the heavens...

Our life will turn into hell.

Finish them all.

I can see you!

Worthless Rascal!

[WHISTLES POPULAR

Come on. Let's go!

Must be the guy who
held you at gun point.

What are you doing?

Let's go!

Revathi!

Shit!

Revathi!

Paper!

Just pieces of paper!

REVATHI!

Pieces of paper!

Look what it can make us do!

It makes you trust.

It makes you betray one's trust.

It can make you happy.

It can take away your happiness.

It makes you commit a sin.

It will also help you
wash the sins away.

Revathi!

REVATHI!

Right now, to wash
away my sins...

I need those damn
pieces of paper!

You can run from me!

But you can't hide from me!

You are in my kingdom!

The forests and caves,

Where are you?

I've come running all

Revathi!

Why have you disappeared
away from my sight?

Revathi!

Babe!

Cheater!

You are a cheater!

How many times
did I have to call you?

Not once did you respond.

Let me go. I can explain it.

But I got my message.

No, please. I can explain.

I was wrong. I'm sorry.

Please forgive me.
Don't do this.

I'll make all the time in the
world and meet you in hell.

You can explain yourself.
- No.
