'They say that there's
not just one universe.'

'There are multiple universes.'

'And in these multiple universes
exist multiple versions of everything.'

'I wish I could see
those alternate versions.'

'What happened to the Niharika
who did not come to Delhi?'

'The one who didn't meet her father...'

'The one who didn't meet Akshay again...'

'Because in the process of fighting
for Neeraj and Meher, I had lost myself.'

'The line between what's right and wrong
was getting increasingly blurred.'

So, what are we seeing here?
- This is the CCTV footage.

The footage of Vartika entering
Neeraj's room is from August 6.

And the footage of her coming out
of the room is from May 28.

Which means that this footage is from
2 different days, which has been edited

to make it seem like
it's from the same day.

And if I'm not wrong, Neeraj has done it.

Have you done it?

When will you stop
doing such stupid things?

Whatever little brains you have,
at least use it!

Surya, what's wrong with you?
- Me? What's wrong with him, dammit!

He lies to us, and then
he's expecting us to save him!

No. And if Neeraj has done it,
there must be a strong reason for it.

Let him explain himself.

Let it be, mom. Even if I explain,
nobody will believe me.

You know what, Neeraj?
I would love to hear your explanation.

Because if you haven't raped her,
there was no need to tamper the footage.

So, what could have I done?

How could I prove that whatever happened
between Vartika and I was consensual?

Vartika gave herself cigarette burns
and fabricated the rape evidence.

It was my turn. I wanted to prove that
Vartika consented to whatever happened.

Hi. I was told you were looking for me.
Anything important?

Actually, it's something very important.

Puneet Tandon had the opportunity

to file a case against me.

To file a case against the firm.

To have Neeraj's bail revoked.

The perfect opportunity to screw us.

But he didn't do that.

He keeps warning me against JJ.

It's almost as if

he's trying to say that JJ can
betray anyone at any time.

Sukhmani, I need to know the real story.

The story I know is the story I've heard.

So, tell me the story you've heard.

The story is from 6-7 years ago.

Back then, Puneet was
an associate of JJ's.

The case involved
a software company named Infitex.

They had leaked
the passwords of all their clients.

JJ asked Puneet to defend them.

When it seemed unlikely
that we'd win the case,

JJ suggested that we blame everything
on one employee and absolve everyone else.

Otherwise, everyone would get in trouble.

The company put all the blame
on a young man named Onir.

Puneet thought that Onir
was actually guilty.

And Puneet, being Puneet,
proved him guilty in court.

When Puneet found out
that the boy was actually innocent,

it was too late.

The boy had already
committed suicide in jail.

Puneet can't forget the fact that
because of JJ, he killed an innocent man.

So, that's the story.

Sukhmani, have you ever wondered that in
the fight between the right and the wrong,

what if we turn out to be wrong?

I'm myself confused about
what's right and what's wrong.

Do you think you can see the future?

No. I still feel that I'm still carrying
the guilt of Onir's death in my heart

and I'm sure you'll diagnose that I'm
projecting the same emotion onto Vartika.

Listen, Puneet.
It wasn't your fault back then.

And it's not your fault right now, either.

I need to protect her.

Protect whom?

Vartika or Niharika?

See.

This is you.

Very calm and composed on the outside.

But

from within?

Whatever you're hiding,
whatever you're suppressing...

You can't control it for long.

See, Puneet. I've told you
this before as well.

You don't come
for therapy sessions regularly.

And don't take every case personally.

In psychiatric language,
this is known as excessive empathy.

Are these toys specially
manufactured for psychiatrists,

or can one buy them at any toy shop?

How is Onir?

Do you talk to him?

No.

Sure?

Yes.

So, Neeraj, you're saying
that on the night of August 6,

you had consensual sex
with Vartika, right?

Right.

Can you explain
the meaning of consensual sex?

Objection, Your Honour.
- Overruled.

Yes, Neeraj. Explain the meaning
of consensual sex.

When two people readily agree to have sex,
it's called consensual sex.

Wow, you actually know it!
I thought you'd have no idea.

Okay. So, tell us. That night,
when Vartika came into your room,

what did you do
to ask for her consent? - What?

You said that it was consensual sex. So,
what did you do to ask for her consent?

Did you ask her a question?
Did you talk to her?

Or did you not ask her at all?

Is it possible that the sex which
you consider to be consensual,

in fact, did not have Vartika's consent?

That's not true. Whatever happened
on the 6th was with Vartika's consent.

I'll do one thing. Next time onwards,
whenever I'm about to sleep with someone,

I'll shoot a video of them
giving me their consent. Okay?

And as far as the 8th is concerned,

I was asleep in my room. Alone.

I didn't even see Vartika.

Let's forget about the dates, 6th and 8th.
Let's just focus on consent.

Vartika complained against you to the HR
that you were sexually harassing her.

She's lying!

About what part? That she went to the HR,
or that you were sexually harassing her?

No... I mean, she did go to the HR.
But I did not harass her.

Isn't it strange that you were ready
to sleep with a woman

who had accused you of sexual harassment?

No.
- No?

I mean, yes...
- Yes or no, Neeraj?

Make up your mind.
- Yes.

So, you want the court to believe

that a woman whom you were
sexually harassing, who was scared of you,

suddenly had a change of heart
and wanted to willingly sleep with you?

You're twisting the story!
I did not force her!

Perhaps you're so attractive that no woman
can say no to you. Is that what you think?

Objection, Your Honour.
He's badgering my witness. - Sustained.

Vartika told the management
that after the internship,

she wouldn't work at your company.

She spread a rumour
that you're a sexual predator.

Then, on the 6th, she had
consensual sex with you.

And on the 8th, she filed
a rape case against you.

Why so? - Objection,
Your Honour. Badgering.

Neeraj, was it sex or rape?
- I did not rape anyone!

So, why is the victim trying to trap you?
There must be some logic to it, right?

Or has it happened before
that you've forced someone?

I did not force Vartika. On the 6th,
she came to my room of her own accord.

Just because she came of
her own accord on the 6th,

does that mean she couldn't
have been raped on the 8th?

Or do you think that after consensual sex,
there can be no rape?

Why would I rape her? Have you
seen her face? Who does she think she is?

Nothing happened! She's lying!
- Get him to calm down.

Objection, Your Honour.
- She's not even my type!

Objection, Your Honour!
- Niharika, get me out of here!

Objection, Your Honour. - I'm just trying
to understand the defendant's thinking.

Your Honour... - My point is,
Neeraj admits that they had sex.

Now, the court has to decide
whether it was forced or not.

Your Honour, permission to approach.

Puneet, that can't happen.
- Your Honour, that can't happen.

Tandon, I'm the authority here.

We need a continuance, Your Honour.
- Why?

Who's the judge here?
- I'm sorry, Your Honour.

Any special reason?

Your Honour, I know
that this is my problem,

but I ate chow mein in the canteen,
and I'm not feeling well.

Tandon, I'm granting her continuance.

Next hearing will be after 7 days. Next!

Thank you, Your Honour.
I really appreciate it.

You haven't gone home yet?

Is your stomach okay?

I'm actually feeling a lot better.
Thank you. - Sure.

You're already under the influence of JJ.

Are you enjoying all this?

There are 25 million
pending cases in India.

People don't get hearing dates. And you
want to save Neeraj fucking Shekhavat!

Why would you care
that thousands of innocent people

rot away in jail for years,
waiting for a hearing date?

But you know what?
Take as many dates as you want.

You're still going to lose this case.

Sir.

It's mine!

That's my diary! Where is it?

Why do you touch my things?

Rohini, come on...
- Where did you keep it?

Rohini, please. No.
- Where did you hide it?

Rohini... Rohini!

Where is it!
- Rohini, please listen to me.

It was my diary!
- You're getting on my nerves, Rohini!

Where have you hidden it?
- What are you looking for?

What's the need to turn
the whole house upside down?

You sneak into my room.

You misplace my things.

Why can't you let me be?

You don't know what all I do
to keep myself stable.

And you mess everything up!
- Randeep...

Why did you bring
your spy inside the house?

How many times have I asked you
to keep your servants out of the house?

Why did you let him go into my room?

Has he come?
- Not yet.

Please be seated.

I'll be in the other room.

Call me if you need me.
- Thank you.

Did anyone see you coming here?

No.

I have very little time, Puneet.

If I stay gone for too long,

the spies that JJ has hired
to keep a watch on me

will press the panic button
and all my efforts will go to waste.

I don't understand why we're meeting
in an astrologer's office.

And what 'efforts' are you talking about?

My efforts to get justice for Rohan.

Ma'am, please. It's been so many years...

And in all these years, I haven't slept
peacefully for even one night.

Rohan was my younger brother.
He had called me the day before he died.

He said that his life was in danger.

He also implied that JJ
was the root of all the problems.

I know that JJ killed Rohan.

Rohan died of a heart attack.
How can that be murder?

Without a history of cardiac problems?

In fact, without a history of
cardiac problems in my entire family?

Out of nowhere, Rohan died
of a heart attack at the age of 35.

And you find that believable?
- No. It's not believable.

In fact, JJ was responsible
for Onir's death too.

And who else knows it better than you?

Can a person who has committed
a murder not commit another one?

What do you want from me?
- Proof.

Look for proof, Puneet.
If you find the proof

that, in fact, JJ did murder Rohan,

will you help me in bringing JJ down?

If we find the proof, I will.
- Thank you.

Sir, our next witness is Bobby Singh,
Neeraj's bodyguard of 15 years.

Ma'am.
- What, now?

There's a trailer for a new movie.

You know some of these characters.
Check it out.

Ms Singh...
- Your Honour, just one minute.

Your present witness is a traitor.
- Ms Singh!

There's new evidence. Just one minute.

Last week, he went
to Vartika's house thrice.

What?

I'm sure he didn't go there
to plant crops.

In Old Delhi, the walls have ears.

Even before that, he'd often
drop Vartika home late at night.

Sir! Ask her to stop it!
- Your Honour, hostile witness!

Hostile witness!
- Please order her to stop it!

You be quiet!

Vartika, I...
- Don't touch me!

Don't touch me.

You won't understand. It's easy
for you to say that you love me.

Go away. You won't understand.

Sir, he has raped Vartika! I've seen it
with my own eyes! - Behave yourself!

Vartika, what do I do?

Neeraj stands there
and makes me tamper the footage.

Sir, I'm telling the truth!
- Hostile witness!

Sir, even in the lift...

'Here's the card to unlock Neeraj's room.
When you exit, run and go that way.'

Police, get hold of him.
- I'm telling the truth, sir!

Take him away.
- Sir, listen to me!

Sir, don't spare this bastard!

Sir, I can give more proof against Neeraj!

Sir, he has committed four more rapes!

Don't spare him, sir!
He's a serial rapist!

Don't let him go!
- Take him away!

Silence! Silence!

Bro, I don't want to go to jail.

Neeraj, it was a setback, but not a loss.

The evidence still favours us. And
Judge Mehta has ignored Bobby's testimony.

Yes. But, at least,
he has heard his testimony.

We can't undo that!

Dude, she's saying that she'll handle it.

She'll handle it.

Bro, if I go to jail,
the merger will be doomed.

Are you threatening the firm?

No. I'm not threatening you.

But if the Vice President of Hyperion
goes to jail, the merger will be doomed.

Is this guy even for real?

Fuck! I need some air.

Bro, do you remember Grade 12?
- I remember, bro.

Who gave you the notes
for the exam? - You.

You were about to be
suspended from college.

Who convinced the principal
not to do it? - You did, bro.

When your father slapped you once, who
stopped his second slap? - You, bro.

So, then?
- I don't know.

Bro, it's me. Relax. Have a drink.

Bro, did you see Niharika
in the court today?

The way she looked...
She oozes sexuality, dude!

Neeraj, there are lines

you just don't fucking cross.

Bro, what happened? Why are you
so emotional all of a sudden?

You're making the face you made
when I threw the band out of the car.

Bro... I'm sorry,
I didn't know that you...

Akshay, bro, I'm sorry.

Let me go! Let go of me!

Let her go! Relax.

Let me go!
- Look at me. Relax.

Just relax.

Calm down. It's okay.

Someone left a burning cigarette
outside the house.

Vartika, it's very important that you
seek therapy. Please. - No!

Neeraj will torture me.

Neeraj did not inflict burns.
You did that yourself. Remember?

I won't let Neeraj get to you.

You're safe here. Breathe.

Breathe. - I don't know why
this is happening to her.

Relax.

What happened to Vartika

and the story that she made up

have got mixed up in her mind.

She gave herself 15 cigarette burns
right in front of my eyes.

But she didn't scream even once.

Neeraj's case has been
proven to be weak, right?

Vartika will get justice, right?

Vartika was raped.

Neeraj will be punished.
He will go to jail.

Hey, you! Mr Busy.
How do you like this colour?

It's nice.

Nice?
- Yes.

You know, 'nice' is not a very nice term.

What weird logic is that, Devika?
- There is logic to it.

'Nice' is like plastic. It's like
that fake flower which has no scent.

It's like the shawl from Palika Bazaar
which looks 'nice' but offers no warmth.

You know, 'nice' is like you and me. Nice!

Wow!

From 0 to a you-and-me conversation
in 7 seconds. Impressive.

Hi, Devika.
- Hello, father.

Akshay.
- How are you, dad?

Look what I've got for you.

Two air tickets and
a hotel reservation in Milan.

My client offered it to me.
I have no use for it.

So, he booked it for you two.

Wow, that's really good!

Thank you, father.

But, dad, going away from the office
right now... Neeraj's trial is underway...

One week won't make a difference, Akshay.

And I'm here. I'll handle it. Don't worry.

But, dad... - Akshay,
relationships are like plants.

Without the sunlight of quality time
and the water of love, they wilt away.

Do you understand?

Yes.
- Good.

Bye.
- Bye.

Ma'am, you wanted to see me?

Yes, Manav. Speak to Akshay's secretary.

Early next week, I need
two hours from his schedule.

Since Bobby has gone rogue,
we need to figure the way forward.

Ma'am, next week seems difficult.

Why? - Mr Akshay Jaitley
is not in the office next week.

I spoke to his secretary. She said
that they are going to Italy for a week.

Mrs Devika and Mr Akshay Jaitley.

Really?

Are you sure?
- Yes, ma'am. I'm sure.

Are you going to Italy?

Hi.
- Hi.

You're going to Italy.

Yes. - Neeraj's case
is hanging by a thread

and you're going for a holiday
to Italy with your wife!

You are Neeraj's lawyer. Not me.

You'll be making all the decisions, right?

And anyway, dad is here.
So, what's the problem?

You don't see the problem?
- No.

Akshay, at least, fulfil
one relationship properly.

What relationship are you talking about?
- Don't you know?

I don't understand why you're so angry.

Is it because I'm going to Italy,
or is it because

I'm going with Devika?

This is not some stupid
jealousy thing, okay?

Devika is calling.
- By all means! I'm out of here.

Hi.

I'm so sorry, I'm late.

It took me a long time to lose the tail.

You know, ma'am,

I don't like JJ much,

but I used to always find it hard
to believe one thing you'd say.

That he'd hire detectives to follow you.

And I always used to wonder,
why would he do that?

But today, it makes sense.

And maybe it even explains
why he would do that.

What do you think? Why would he do that?

Because he knows you well.

And he knows that you won't rest easy
until you find out the truth.

And I think that the truth is
something that he'd prefer to hide.

You have found out something.

What have you found out?

Your suspicion was right.

Your brother,

Rohan, was murdered.

I knew it!

I just knew it!

I mean,

it was still a heart attack, but the
heart attack was induced into him.

How?

I don't know the details,

but Dr Sharma, who performed
the autopsy on Rohan...

I somehow managed to get to him,

and he said that JJ gave him
a lot of money

and got the autopsy
report suppressed. And...

He still has one original copy.

Which means

that if we find that post-mortem report,

then we can reopen the case?

Yes. The case can be reopened,

and on the basis of the investigation,
JJ can be dragged to court.

I want justice for Rohan.

JJ must be punished for what he has done.

He must spend his life in jail.
