Original subtitles

- Madame, take care of your things. - No need to bother about me.

- What do you mean? - Take the hint.

You don't know how I've lived these past 10 years.

Look at me, son; I'm your mother.

My mother died 10 years ago, and I too.

Only Chiranjilal, Banarasi and Bindiya are the one who are alive.

I'm alive only for you, to see you being released from jail.

Mother, now you must go home.

- Or a crowd will gather. - Let a crowd gather.

I want the crowd to gather so that I can tell them

to take a look at my son who never abused or cheated anyone.

But who was falsely implicated for murder,

and sentenced to life imprisonment.

Hurry up and finish your conversation with your son.

I'm meeting my son arter 10 years and you want me to hurry up.

Move, mother. Let's leave.

I'm sorry. Mrs Lal has sent me to receive you.

But a rogue delayed me.

Dear, I can't accompany you as my brother has come to receive me.

So I'm going with him and give my regards to Mrs Lal.

Also tell her that I'll call up in the morning.

Dear, take this with you.

- Where are you going? - To Aham village.

I stay with my employers.

I got news that my son

was being transferred to Mirzapur jail from the Lucknowjail.

I was staying at the guest house for 5 days.

And all the while I was anxious to meet him and today I met him.

- Greetings! - Dear, he is the accountant.

- He manages my employer's accounts. - I was looking for you.

The boss has replaced you with another servant.

What? You know how much this job means to me.

I know but this is God's will.

Here is your belongings. I couldn't take the risk any longer.

I knew I'd meet you here.

May God bless you!

With people like you still around good will always exists.

Mother, I came here without informing the boss.

You know that if I don't reach by morning he'll sack me also.

- I've to fend for my family. - Son, you must leave.

- But where will you go? - Wherever destiny takes me.

I'll have to begin life anew.

I'm skeptical about finding another job.

- Greetings! - God bless you!

- Keep your belongings safely. - I will.

- Where will you go now? - I don't know.

Stay the night with me and I'll try to fix a job for you.

You can stay with me till you find a place of your own.

Peally?

Madame, only Pe 1 for a ride to the mansion.

- You are charging more. - There's no other transport.

It's up to you if you want to take it.

Okay. But who's in the front seat?

He'll get down on the way at Pam temple.

- Come, Madame. - Mother, we'll hire another coach.

Madame, you may not find another coach, so get in.

- It's okay. - Okay, I'll make way for you.

- Driver, take the Madame. - Get in, Madame.

But I'll have to find another traveller.

- I'll pay you for that. - Okay.

- Madame, is this your key? - Yeah, it is mine.

This gentleman is so nice. Madame, allow him to travel.

- You mind your business. - Okay.

- We'll meet again. - You drive.

Come, son.

TrThe separated will meet again'.

I had to close shop and you can think about poetry.

I'm right, everything will again come back.

- Take this. - Vikas, you take everything easy.

This is fate.

God is a magician and decides all ourjoys and sorrows.

Are you hurt? Eat some almonds to improve your health.

You are again up to your pranks.

If you think yourself to be so clever transform these in

I can but they won't serve any purpose.

- We aren't fated for good things. - I know that.

What news have you got for the next issue?

- For the next issue? - I'm not deaf.

Take this.

God willing the separated will be re-united.

The intelligent only needs a hint.

The girl's handbag is like a match-box.

- This will hardly make an item. - This will make an entire story.

A love story? And that no longer interests people.

They want films.

We need spicy and juicy stories for our newspaper.

Like a beautiful girl fell in a heated wok.

Or a horse smelt his lost master.

Or 20 people were murdered by a single bullet.

And later it was found that it was a fake bullet.

Now, you got it!

You yourself fabricate and publish such news. Goodbye!

- Then what shall I do? - We must wait for sensational news.

- It'll be an eternal wait. - What are you saying?

It doesn't take long for things to happen.

Whoever proves my son innocent and releases him from jail

will be rewarded Ps1O, OOO. Address P.O.Box 999.

- Mr Karamveer, this sounds good. - What nonsense?

You are right, the law can't be 1ocent to Allows. OO 1515 O7, OO 151815, But the n of her son's innocence.

The mother thinks her son to be innocent.

This ad was published 5 years ago also.

It is only a mother's plea.

That time the reward was Ps 5, OOO and today it's doubled.

So let's wait for the reward to reach Ps 15, OOO and then try.

Pight; So let's discard it.

Vikas, I think this will work in our favour.

I feel we're slated for better things.

So, let's hurry. Vikas, you must leave immediately

eady to leave, but... I haven't received 6 months s.

. I'll pay you the entire amount on completion oftĮ.

Can I meet Neelima devi?- Why?

I've come in answer to the ad about Mohan.

Do come in.- I'd placed that ad. Sit down.

Thanks.- I was telling Mrs Das

about the lack of response to the ad.

I've come.- I'm very happy.

Before you ask anything

want to tell you everything about my dear Mohan.

That'll be better.

Mohan was very pampered.

(as very attached to him and he always ate with

if I ever woke up late he'd himself come to me.

And would wake me up in his melodious voice.

He had a voice that was loud and clear.

Why did you stop writing?- I am writing.

Mohan's eyes would fill with love on seeing my friend's leave.

And if someone tried to be rude to me

he'd dart a glare. Continue writing.

I'm writing.- Mrs. Das, what else can I write?

There's nothing else. Show his photographs.

Ust be having his pictures?- I've innumerable of.

The photographer clicked innumerable pictures on every birthday of his.

And he also readily posed.

What else?- Don't impose; She gets emotional.

I'm sorry.- Everything about him was good.

Except that... People felt so but I thought that was his highlight.

What was that?- His tail was cut.

What do you mean?- I mean his tail was cut.

- What's wrong with you? - I've a headache.

- Can I get a glass of water? - Neelima, fetch a glass of water.

- Write further. - I want a glass of water first.

Okay.

Give it to him not me.

I want to know the crime for which Mohan was arrested?

Why would he be jailed? He only barked never bit.

I'm sorry but there's some problem somewhere.

Madame, I know this man very well.

- He's good at juggling things. - You take me to be a thief?

I know you are one.

There were two roses and now one is missing.

Search him.- What?

Look.- Thief!

What will I gain by stealing a flower?

- Force of habit. - Neelima, call the police.

Madame, forget it but ask him never to step here again.

Go.- Didn't you hear?

But...- No ifs and buts.

- Madame, will you have tea? - No, get a cold drink instead.

What is it?- Wait.

- I've not flicked anything. - I know.

But...- You had your revenge.

You think only you are good at juggling?

That's why I applaud you.

Aren't you ashamed to chase me on flimsy excuses?

Who followed you? What's so great about you?

- Then why did you come? - In response to this ad.

But I wasn't aware that I'd counter crazy people here.

Nobody is crazy here. My Madame lost her dog and so had put an ad.

- But this is not that ad. - Then whose is it?

- The address is the same. - Follow me.

Don't trap me because I don't trust you.

I too don't trust you yet I'll introduce you to her.

She's a poor and hapless woman so don't try your tricks with her.

Because you know my prowess too.

Don't worry and lead the way.

Mother, this man has come in response to your ad.

- Madame's waiting for me. - The separated...

Ta" to him from a distance or he may flick something.

He's not trustworthy. He's the same fellow we met at the station.

Though she's praised me enough yet I'll try to be of some help to you.

Give honest replies to my questions.

- Ask. - Is your son's name Mohan?

- Yes. - He's serving life imprisonment?

- Yes. - 10 years have already passed?

- Yes. - You had placed this ad?

I'll reward Ps 10, OOO to the person who proves my son innocent.

You'll give the money? Where is the exit?

- Why? - I think I'm in a mental asylum.

How will you be able to pay the reward money?

Why are you trying to fool yourself and others too?

Son, I've Ps 3OO less to 10, OOO.

But I'm not trying to cheat anyone.

I'll show it to you.

See, these are not counterfeit notes.

- Where did you get it from? - This is my hard earned money.

I've saved every penny to prove my son's innocence.

I've slogged day and night.

I could only see my son's innocent face.

Which goaded me to work.

Don't go by my appearance. I'm a hapless mother

who's feelings can't be gauged by money.

I can understand your feelings, mother.

But how are you confident about your son's innocence?

I can rely on my instincts.

Get out!

The accountant had come to return this only.

Last night you were anxious to know as to how I'd arrange for the money?

I evaded your question but this is that money.

It is less than Ps 10, OOO and so I wanted a job

to earn more money.

You don't know how I've slogged to save this money.

I starved and slogged to save.

I can understand your feelings for your son.

While placing the ad I thought you

wanted to lure someone into doing your work.

Please forgive me for misunderstanding you.

I've saved every penny to get my innocent son released.

I've Ps 3OO less to Ps 10, OOO.

I've slogged day and night.

I only visualised my innocent son's face.

Take a look at a mother's feelings which is invaluable.

Greetings, Mr Karamveer! Didn't you sleep well at night?

No.

Last night I had a beautiful dream.

But what about the job I'd assigned?

I was coming to that.

- You were mentioning your dream? - Yes.

And one day my dream will come true.

That old lady, who feels the anguish of her son's separation

was right. Mr Karamveer, I think she's right.

Her son is innocent.

You'll have to help me.

Arter all it involves Ps 10, OOO.

- I can even lay my life. - Promise?

I'll keep my commitment.

Then issue the following headline

that a innocent man was sentenced to life imprisonment 10 years ago.

This is not possible.

- I'll have to close shop. - It's as good that even now.

But this is inviting trouble and I can't do it.

- What about your promises? - Whatever but I can't do this.

- This is a golden opportunity. - No!

Once this news is published all doors will open.

Whatever but I won't publish this.

Won't you?- No.

An innocent man serves jail sentence since 10 years.

Mother, a news has been published about your son Mohan.

They've appealed to the police dept to investigate this matter.

Who is responsible for this, dear?

The editor is Mr Karamveer.

This is in answer to the ad we'd published.

- Yet I must thank him. - Yes.

- But you must accompany me. - I?

- What are you doing? - Nothing.

- Did anyone come asking for Mohan? - No.

One man did call up saying that he's found a dog.

And asked to check it. If you want I can go.

Certainly and if needed take my car also.

- Okay. - Shall I too join you?

No need. If it is Mohan then I'll call you up to come over.

I'll bring nice biscuits for Mohan.

God willing the separated will again be united.

- You? - Yes. Greetings!

- I was going to your place. - So you won't stop following me?

- You are mistaken. - I am not.

Only time will prove that. Can I help you?

- The ones who help are different. - How are they?

Despite being strangers they've published a headline.

- So you're going to thank him? - Yes.

- You can thank me here itself. - You?

- Yes. - Take a good look at yourself.

I've taken a look at myself in your beautiful eyes.

- The person you're going to meet... - I'll know on meeting him.

Let's go, mother.

You want to know how could I be so courageous?

For how long can you keep the truth hidden?

I won't withdraw. Goodbye!

- What can I do for you? - Are you Mr Karamveer?

- Yes. - She's Smt Gangadevi.

It was her son about whom you had published that headline.

Oh, so you are the one who had announced a reward of Ps 10, OOO?

- Yes. - We'll try our best

to awaken the public who'll appeal to the government for justice.

- I'm grateful to you. - Don't be grateful to me.

This is my reporter's doing and I too am grateful to him.

By publishing this news he's revived my paper.

Greetings, Mr Karamveer!

- Vikas, she's Mohan's mother. - Greetings!

- Do you recognise me? - Yes.

- Now you can thank me. - Don't embarrass me further.

If you've any important information you can contact me on this no.

And if you want to contact me do so on 4OO4.

Thanks. Mother, let's go.

What is the matter?

I'm speaking from Prakash's office. What did you say?

The commissioner... with our editor. Okay.

I know that you are childless.

And you pray fervently for a child.

Priest, please come in.

Please come in and be seated.

- This is my modest house. - That was 10 years ago.

Now this is a mansion.

You are right. 10 years ago we lived in a modest house.

10 years ago you were thinking of the approaching diwali.

And that you don't have enough money to celebrate it.

But you came into this house precisely on diwali day.

You are right.

On the eve of diwali we had no money.

That night my husband got lot of money and later bought this house.

He bought me jewellery. I wonder how he came across so much money.

But your husband has earned this money from unfair means.

- And that's the reason... - I'm childless?

Can you tell me the source of his wealth?

I can but it will take time.

You'll have to perform a prayer for that.

I'll do your bidding but please tell me the source of his wealth.

You'll know everything when the time is ripe.

- I must leave now. - Priest, you forgot this.

- When will you come again? - I can't confirm that.

- But yet wait for me. Goodbye! - Goodbye!

He was omniscient. He even told me my name.

He even told me that I'm childless.

He even told about our poverty 10 years ago and good fortune now.

"I'd forbidden you from doing idle ta" with people.

- But this is not idle chatter. - You are very naive.

Tell me how did you amass all this wealth?

You should've asked the priest about it.

- He said it. - What did he say?

That you've earned this wealth through unfair means.

- Did he really say that? - What's happened to you?

In the evening when people blew money on dancers...

Shama would lock her doors and would sing and wait for me.

I'm an ordinary man but yet she preferred me to wealth.

So, how could I've killed her?

Then do you suspect Banarasilal?

I don't know. The murder took place at his house,

but he was not present there.

- Why was Shama there? - Banarasilal had invited her.

But she sent me a message asking her to meet me there.

Through whom did she send the message?

Through Bindiya who was her friend.

Bindiya was there but she testified against me that I'd killed Shama.

- Where is Bindiya? - I don't know.

People feel she's dead but I don't think so.

- Who is this Charanjilal? - I don't know anybody

not even my mother.

I only know Bindiya who was present at that time.

When I lert Shama in the room I heard a gun shot.

And Shama's shrieks. Only Bindiya knows about the gun shot...

Or God knows. I only know that I'm innocent.

Why didn't you say all this in the court?

I did speak but the court believes only in evidences.

I don't deny that the court's decision is wrong.

Had I been in their shoes I too would've made a similar decision.

I've nothing against the law nor against the decision.

My grudge is only against Bindiya.

Bindiya, this is your way to take revenge on me for spurning your love.

Bindiya, you'll pay for this.

Bindiya can solve this case.

Only Banarasilal knows if she's alive or dead.

Please dial 3OO3.

Do it yourself as I'm scared.

- Who's that? - I'm Mrs Lal speaking.

Greetings! Please call Neelima.

- What did you say? - This is regarding Mohan.

I've traced him and he's here with me.

Okay, just hold on.

Mr Karamveer, please bark.

He's missing you.

This is my Mohan's voice.

- Please bring him on the line. - Again? Okay.

Neelima, Mohan is found and is ta"ing to me.

- Neelima is here. - You too hear him.

I'm Vikas here. Come here immediately.

We won't come there. You bring him here.

- Mr Karamveer, I'll have to go. - Then go.

I'll be there with Mohan.

- Find a tailless dog. - What?

You are very well aware that

the headline given by you is a challenge to the government.

Can I know on the basis of which evidence you took this step?

- You speak. - We've no such evidences.

But I met the criminal's mother.

And she is sure of her son's innocence.

My sympathies are with Mohan's mother.

But being a government servant I've other considerations also.

So you'll have to set a time limit.

- Give us a month's time. - Vikas, that's too little.

- Sir, give us a year's time. - I'll give you 2 months time.

If you fail to prove yourselves by then

then legal action will be taken against you. Okay?

But that's too little.

He's immature and doesn't realise the gravity of the situation.

I can't give you more time. You can leave now.

- Let's leave, Mr Karamveer. - Come.

I'm Karamveer, the editor.

If you won't discontinue writing about Mohan

then we'll kill you.

What is the matter?

They've disconnected. What is the matter?

- They've give a death threat. - What?!

- That's great! - What?

Didn't I tell you that once it gets published all doors will open.

I'm scared and you are worried about the case.

It's a matter of time when we get Ps 10, OOO.

Mr Vikas, I feel this is a waste of time.

The case is old and the decision made by the judge and jury

must've been made with great thought.

That's fine but his mother is confident of her son's innocence.

Every mother feels similarly.

I felt the same but arter meeting his mother I was convinced otherwise.

- Here are the files. - I want to go through them.

And I also want to find out who were the witnesses against Mohan.

- Fine. - Thanks.

- Sir, I think he's mad. - We're concerned with our money.

I'll give you that right away.

I wish we get such threats daily.

I was with the lawyer going through Mohan's files.

He's saying he was going through the files.

- God bless him. - Mother has blessed you.

- And you? - Neelima, any news about Mohan?

- You didn't answer me. - That's what I was discussing.

You didn't answer me.

Tell mother tomorrow I've find out about Bindiya and Charanjilal.

First I'll go to hotel Dilbahar.

There's no need to go there as I know its owner.

You must visit the names you've mentioned.

- It's the dog's mistress. - And remember

that Mohan's tail was cut.

- The murderer is someone else. - Quite possible.

The judge and jury can go wrong. Everything is possible.

This is what I'm trying to prove.

May god help you.

- Let me know if you need my help. - Certainly.

I can't resolve this without your help.

- Who is Chiranjilal? - Who Chiranjilal?

I don't know any Chiranjilal.

- And Bindiya? - She was Shama's friend.

I've not seen her since the case was over.

I'd heard that she had returned to her native place.

And Shama's grief killed her also.

- I'm sorry to take your time. - It's okay.

Do you know anyone called Chiranjilal?

Yes. 10 years ago he lived in this chawl and in this very room.

- Where does he stay now? - He stays in a bungalow now.

I think he's earned money from gambling.

Overnight his fortunes changed for the better.

It's a matter of luck.

I am Chiranjilal. You go and perform your prayers.

I asked you to leave.

What is the matter?

I've got a headache since I've come from the police station.

- Pemove this. - Why?

- We've made it. - Well done!

- Who's the culprit? - It's too early to say that.

- Then what is it? - I met Charanjilal today.

On hearing my first question he went pale.

10 years ago he was an ordinary man but today he's a rich man.

- I'll inform the commissioner. - Not now.

- Why? - We've to find how he grew rich.

- But how will we know that? - That's my worry too.

- We can know from his wife. - Then go and meet her.

How do I meet her?

- His wife is very religious. - So?

- You'll have to do something. - What is it?

- Publish a headline. - What?

That how did Chiranjilal amass so much wealth?

- No. - No?

- I'm doing my prayers. - You are only doing prayers.

- Come here. - What is it?

"Don't ta" much with strangers.

- But, Madame... - I don't want to hear a word more.

So you want to place an ad for an old woman

who can take care of your bird sanctuary?

- Yes. - I know of someone.

My reporter Vikas has gone to find her a job.

- Please take a seat. - Thank you!

Mother, he's dumb. I hardly sit at the shop.

He takes care and he's mute.

- Take care of him also. - Pay her for that as well.

All this is hers now and he too is like a little bird.

So it'll be generous of her to take care of him who is a mute.

- Goodbye, mother! - Goodbye!

I too shall leave. Let's see what happens at hotel Gul Bahar.

- Son, take care. - Don't worry. Come, Neelima.

I'm Papa Khan and she's Madame Bilbilan.

I'm a world renowned magician.

But who's the magician? You or Madame?

- I'm the magician. - I thought it is her.

Her magic works on the heart while my magic works on the mind.

We've heard about a grand celebration at your hotel,

so we want to perform 'n fame. O1 OO O3 OO, O1 OO O5 20, You can earn mor.

- What are your rates? - We'll discuss that later.

- First you must see our tricks. - Fine.

If you can make our patrons happy we'll make you happy.

Okay.

How can I please you when you'd hurt my beloved?

- What did I do? - You pocketed her kerchief.

I pocketed her kerchief!

Wonderful!

- What if I don't return? - No problem.

- We'll make preparations. - Fine.

Come, Madame Bilbilan.

Amazing!

I think this is also one of your tricks.

You've a good sense of humour, Mr Papa Khan.

- Let's leave now. - Madame wants to leave.

I won't let you leave.

You'll have to perform here every week.

And I've made arrangements for your stay also.

- Let's go, Madame. - Okay, Papa Khan.

This is the drawing hall.

This is also converted as a dancing hall.

He's trying to say something.

- What is this parrot saying? - Nothing, he only blabbers.

- Madame, he's only blabbering. - Oh!

- Take a look at your bedrooms now. - Madame, please come.

He's our new guest so take proper care of them.

- Fine. - Follow me.

Madame, this is your room and Papa Khan, that is your room.

Did you like the place?

I'll take your leave now.

Madame, shake hands and wish him good-night.

That chandelier was deliberately dropped on us.

But why?

To kill us because they know our true identity.

- But how did they know? - I too can't understand that.

Only Karamveer and mother knew about it.

Anyway, take care as I worry for you.

- You worry for me? - Yes.

- Why? - What if something happens to you.

- So what? - Then what'll happen to me?

This parrot incessantly mentions Bindiya's name.

Bindiya must be in some way connected with this house.

Now it's clear that Banarasi...

Excuse me for being romantic with Madame Bilbilan.

- I want to seek your permission. - For what?

I want to take her out.

Certainly but be punctual for the show.

- Sir, your cigarette holder. - My cigarette holder?

- Greetings, mother. - You've come?

I was worried for you both. Your editor friend had come.

- He's my boss not my friend. - He looked tensed.

He's gone to the police station and asked you also to join him.

So you must leave. Neelima will be here with me.

Before I leave I'll leave some job for you to do.

What is it?

We'll prove Mohan's innocence.

Mr Karamveer, I heard everything. I'm sorry but he's hard of hearing.

You're on time, Vikas. The date is fixed for the 11th.

And the case will be re-opened in the court on that day.

And if you fail to prove your case, this case shall be closed forever.

Commissioner, I'm confident in collecting all evidences by then.

Well done, son!

I'm again reminding you about the date.

I'll leave now.

- The parrot is missing. - This is a ploy.

- Sir, the food is ready. - Is it?

We won't eat. You can relax. Come, Madame.

Vikas, I'm scared.

How did the parrot die all of a sudden?

- He was fine in the morning. - I too am thinking the same.

Even our behaviour couldn't have raised any doubts.

- We didn't even utter her name. - Then?

Our coming here in disguise, the parrot blabbering Bindiya's name

all this we'd confided only in mother.

- Perhaps there... - You're right, Neelima.

That's where we had mentioned her name. Perhaps that man is not mute.

- And perhaps he's their spy. - Pight.

- We must be careful of him. - And must guard our tongue.

Your life is in danger. We must leave immediately.

No. I'll see my mission to its end.

What happened?

Last night on returning from the show, I found the parrot dead.

I too noticed it now. But he was old and got freedom.

- Everything else is fine? - I too escaped death.

I saw a cobra on my bed.

He'as about to strike me but Madame Bilbilan saw him and saved my life.

Don't worry, as this is a forest area he must've just come.

But we must celebrate your escape from death.

And also a dance from Madame Bilbilan.

But promise me that there'll be no more snakes.

I'll ask Peshori to be more cautious.

Neelima, you were simply great.

- You too were nothing less. - I?

- I was actually drinking. - All lies.

No, I was drunk on your beauty.

Stop this poetry and confide in me tonight's plan.

- Tonight? - Yes, tonight.

- That's that! Where is Bindiya? - I don't know.

You know it.

- Where is Bindiya? - I'll tell you.

Arter Mohan was framed Bindiya was handed over to Shamsher.

Shamsher took her away and since then we haven't heard about her.

- Who is Shamsher? - I don't know.

- Where does he stay? - I don't know,

so how can I tell you. Now leave me.

If the boss comes to know that I've disclosed this to you he'll kill me.

Please spare me.

- If you act smart I'll kill you. - I won't act smart.

- Any news? - I've traced Bindiya.

- But it's not definite. - What do you mean?

Bindiya was handed over to Shamsher.

- Now? - We've to trace Shamshersingh now.

How will we do it? We've only 2 more days.

But we've to do something. We must leave immediately.

Tomorrow is the case, son. Now what will happen?

Even this parrot doesn't parrot Bindiya's name.

It's okay, mother. We've succeeded in tracing Bindiya.

- Peally? - If we can trace Shamsher

- we can find her too. - But we haven't found Shamsher.

You're not aware of it. I'll be meeting him at 7 in the evening.

Mother, we'll meet in court tomorrow and I'll prove Mohan's innocence.

- So, don't worry. - God bless you.

Come, Neelima.

- What did you say? - Yes

today at 7 in the evening Vikas will be meeting Shamsher.

- How did he get his address? - I don't know that.

Shamsher, I want to know if you really had killed Bindiya?

Why are you staring at me? Answer me.

Your silence is dangerous.

Don't you trust me?

Now I no longer trust anyone not even myself.

You don't trust me? Get out of here.

I don't want to hear a word.

I killed that innocent girl on your bidding and have guarded your secret.

And you don't trust me.

You are unnecessarily getting upset.

Some people feel that Bindiya is still alive.

And they have your address and can come here anytime.

Let them come, I know to deal with them.

Well done!

Who are you? Have you lost your way?

No, I've reached my destination.

- What can I do for you? - Are you Shamsher Singh?

- Yes; What can I do for you? - I want to ask you something.

- About whom? - About Bindiya.

You know the purpose of my visit. Banarasilal paid you a visit now.

- Where is Bindiya? - I can't disclose.

Why did Banarasilal hand over Bindiya to you?

- To kill her. - And did you?

- I killed her. - Did she tell you anything?

She did try to say something.

But the greed for money drove me crazy.

And I killed that innocent girl.

- Who's that? - There's a rumor that ghosts exist.

And that he sometimes shrieks.

Come, Neelima.

- What was that? - Ghosts.

Neelima, wait here for me. And don't get scared.

- Don't you utter a word more. - You are feeling remorse.

Kill me.

Get lost!

- Kill me. - Your manner held me back then.

And even now though my hand is shaking my mind is not.

- Then finish the story. - That's the tragedy

that I can't kill my beloved with my own hands.

10 years ago I fell in love with you.

And since then I've risked my life to keep you alive.

Only because I love you.

But now I must kill you as the truth can't be kept hidden for long.

Leave her.

Surrender your knife.

Please don't get scared of me and release me.

Pelease me.

They've taken everything from me. I won't spare those rogues.

Now Bindiya can't go anywhere.

- What is this you're doing? - What I ought to be doing.

Your companion has gone with Bindiya.

You can't leave until she returns.

- Is she alive? - Yes.

Scream louder.

- I'll be back soon. - Scream louder.

Louder!

Vikas, you leave as we are hard pressed for time.

Today is the case hearing. Pemember that song that we'll meet again.

Shamsher Singh, I'll kill you.

You've only two options now.

Either Bindiya or this beautiful girl stays with me.

- I accept your condition. - Neelima, what are you saying?

Vikas, I know that you love me and so are sacrificing your duty.

I too reciprocate your love and can sacrifice my life for you.

Shamsher, the deal is struck.

Let Bindiya go with Vikas, I'll stay here with you.

What will I tell Banarasilal?

Once Bindiya reaches court that matter will settle.

He'll be arrested and you'll be free.

- So, Mr Karamveer... - Address me as Shri Karamveer.

You claim that the culprit Mohanlal is innocent.

This is my reporter Vikas' claim not mine.

But you've printed it in your paper and have challenged to prove it also.

I still maintain that.

It means 10 years ago the court made a wrong decision.

By doing so you've challenged the court that 10 years ago it was blind.

The truth was hidden from the court then.

Permit me to present a key eye-witness.

Shama was my well-wisher and true friend.

She loved Mohan immensely.

The day she was killed that day at Banarasilal's bungalow

at around 6.25 she and Mohan...

It's 6.30 now. Banarasilal will be coming so you must leave now.

- How long will this go on? - It's a matter of a few days more.

I'll leave Banarasilal to be with you.

- Shama, I can't live without you. - Nor can I.

- But now you must leave. - Okay.

Keep shut or you'll meet the same fate as Shama.

Mohan is the murderer not I. Understand?

10 years ago you said that Mohan was the murderer.

- Yes. - So you had lied?

Yes.

Also that you were kidnapped to be killed?

- Yes. - But you are alive.

- So you had lied? - No.

He didn't kill me but kept me captive.

- Why? - He was in love with me.

- How did you suddenly become rich? - Laxmi favoured me.

- You mean your wife? - No, I mean Goddess Laxmi.

- You mean luck favoured you? - You can say so.

- Did you find some hidden wealth? - No.

- Then? - I gambled on horses.

Mr Banarasilal, you've been accused of murdering Shama.

As per the statement given by Bindiya and other witnesses

the murder took place at 6.30 in the evening.

Were you present there when the murder took place?

- No. - Then where were you?

I was at the club playing cards with my friends.

- You remember their names? - Yes.

It means at 6.30 you were playing cards?

Doctor, where was Banarasilal when Shama was murdered?

He was with us playing cards.

- Are you sure? - Certainly.

- Who else was with you at the club? - Dr. Dinanath...

Mr. Khanna and Mr Banarasilal were with me.

Are you sure that Banarasilal was with you till 6.30 in the evening?

- Yes. - Are you certain?

- Yes. - That's all.

Was it 6.30 when you were playing cards with Banarasilal?

- Yes. - Are you sure?

- Very much. - That's all, your honour.

Banarasilal was at the club at 6.30.

And Shama was also killed at 6.30. How is that possible?

This is intriguing Bindiya, shed some light on this.

I'm sure you know it. We've made a mistake somewhere.

Bindiya, think it over carefully and say,

for how many days were you at Banarasilal's place?

Shama and I were there since 15 days.

What was he doing on the day this incident occurred?

I'm sure Mohan is the culprit.

Mr Karamveer, keep shut and go and sit there.

So, Bindiya, what did he do the entire day?

As usual he had his morning tea, then came home for lunch.

He seemed pleased at lunch but was tensed in the morning.

Perhaps he was upset in the morning...

Because he knew that while he's at the club...

- Mohan would come to meet Shama. - Then?

"Arter lunch he'd wa" in his room and before leaving for the club...

Perhaps he was aware that Mohan discreetly met Shama.

While he was upset did you find any noticeable traits about him?

I saw him rectifying the watch in the hall.

- What time would Mohan come? - At 6.OO.

You said that Banarasilal was with you at 6.30?

Yes - Can you say

if he lert for a while at around 6.O5 or 6.10?

Yes, I do think he did leave at around that time for a while.

- Do you think or are you sure? - I'm sure.

But at 6.30 when the murder took place he was playing cards with us.

- How far's his house from the club? - Around 5 mins.

Mr Khanna, I agree that at 6.30 he was playing cards with you.

Did he leave for a while at around 6.O5 or 6.10?

- Yes. - That's all.

Did he leave for a while at 6.O5 or 6.10?

- I think he did go. - Aren't you sure?

I'm sure.

Mr Banarasilal, on the day of the murder

at 6.30 you were at the club playing cards with your friends.

You went out for a while at around 6.O5 or 6.10?

- I can't re-collect. - Try to re-collect.

- I think I did go. - Where did you go?

- I don't remember. - Think as it is crucial.

I think I went to have tea. I can't re-collect.

- Perhaps you went home? - No!

I remember vividly that I didn't go home.

You claimed not to remember anything.

Then how did you remember that you hadn't gone home?

- How far's your house from the club? - About 4-5 mins.

Can I go to your house and return to the club within 10 mins?

I fail to comprehend this.

I want to know if I can return within 10 mins or no?

Yes.

How did your husband become so rich?

I don't know. Ask him only.

- Did you husband indulge in racing? - Never.

- Where did you bet on the horses? - Naturally at the race-course.

- I mean in which city? - At Lucknow.

My Lord, he's lying.

Because there was no racing at Lucknow in those days.

- Did you really do racing? - No.

- Did you steal? - No.

Then how did you become so rich? It's a question of an innocent life.

- Banarasilal gave it to me. - Why?

My lord, on the day of the murder

at around 6.10 or 6.15, I was wa"ing past Banarasilal's bungalow.

Suddenly I heard a gun shot from the bungalow.

I failed to understand anything.

Arter a while I saw Banarasilal running out of the house.

In panic he banged against me.

He took an assurance from me that if I kept shut,

and helped him he'd make me rich.

And so, the day Mohan was arrested he made me rich.

My lord and the jury members...

I'll remind you Bindiya's statement.

She said Banarasilal was repairing his residence watch.

He was actually making the watch run fast by 15-20 mins.

So that when his residence watch shows 6.30

the actual time would be 6.15 or 6.20.

So he could claim that at 6.30 when the murder took place

he was at the club with his friends playing cards.

Banarasilal is the murderer and the murder took place at around 6.15.

Members of the jury, give us your verdict.

My and the jury member's verdict is that...

Mohanlal is innocent. And Banarasilal

should be punished for making Chiranjilal make a false statement.

And the police should properly investigate this case.

Son, didn't I tell you that you're innocent and will be acquitted?

I'm sorry, please forgive me, Mohan.
