Original subtitles

Good morning, Mr. Sharad.

Zoya ma'am?

You don't have any hearing today.

It's the first hearing in your daughter's case.

God knows what will happen.

They are big shots, ma'am.

They beat up my Sonali and left her half dead.

I spent all my life in this court learning

that people like us don't get justice.

I tried to do my best to convince Sonali to let it go.

This is the norm, my dear.

But she insists on getting a divorce.

I feel defeated, ma'am, but just for her.

Sonali's older sister will fight with her today.

And people like us also get justice, Mr. Sharad.

All one needs is the courage to fight.

Where is it?

Put the name of the plaintiff's lawyer here.

Zoya Ahmed.

You are a top-notch lawyer, ma'am.

- Your fees... - Don't worry about that at all.

Just bestow your blessings on me. I will manage with that.

Come on. Write the full name.

I don't know how will I repay this favour.

How and when will I ever reimburse you, ma'am?

Sonali has my complete support.

- Yes. - Do not worry.

One of the many advantages of being a Chief Minister is,

Morning walk at Humayun's tomb.

Hey! Don't do this. You will be shot.

I am tired of these clandestine meetings.

Clandestine? We are meeting at Humayun's tomb.

I thought, we should take a walk here before it gets renamed as Himanshu's Bungalow.

A big secret is hiding behind these stones, Randeep.

Babar's son... Akbar's father, Humayun.

- You milleniums don't understand this - Millennials!

Anyway, the point is Humayun lost everything his father earned.

Then he got up,

fought with the world and retrieved everything he had,

and handed it over to his son.

The only thing he built for himself was this tomb.

He left everything else to his kids.

Just let me come to Delhi and I will learn everything.

You are very persistent.

I have put the entire administration at your service.

- And yet you... - I don't want any privileges.

I want to live with you in Delhi.

- Just get me out of Meerut. - I can't let you come to Delhi.

Certainly not now.

If you are unhappy there,

go to any country abroad but you can't come to Delhi.

I am not going anywhere!

Man!

You were always stubborn

Like your father.

When did you become dumb.

Hey!

Who is it? Nab him!

- Yes sir! - Stop!

Let's go now, sir.

You can continue your morning walk tomorrow.

I won't repeat myself, Randeep. Get out of here now.

I shall send the ticket to Sheikh.

Pick it up and head for London immediately.

- But not here in Delhi. - Let's go, sir.

Brother, neither did they do anything towards resettling us,

nor did they give us the money promised.

In fact those people have their bulldozer's ready.

Tell me.

Where will all of us go?

What will we do?

I want to live here on this very land!

Shut up, you p****!

What will you do with the land?

You don't have food to eat,

you don't have clothes to wear

and you're hitting your heads with your slippers.

What will you guys do if you don't have jobs? Tell me.

Try to understand what I am saying.

We made this deal with Jinglepur for your future development,

so you don't have to worry.

Until I get you all settled safely in your new homes,

those bulldozers won't move.

In any case, I took this decision after I spoke to you all.

You didn't ask everyone.

I had refused.

You listened to the people who said yes and left.

Look. Nothing can be done now.

The land is sold and the deal is done.

All of you will get lovely homes in the new building.

And one person from every family will get a job.

So, you people should refrain from protests and strikes

else you will lose your lands as well as the jobs.

Reema and Farhan have their own homes and they are gainfully employed.

But they don't care about you.

The only person who cares about you is me.

Keep that in mind.

Understand?

No chocolate shake for you?

The mother is crazy. The child will be born diabetic.

At least godmother should be healthy.

Oh, well. At least there is a godmother.

What do you mean?

Why wouldn't there be one?

F*** you, Sue. I didn't quit the firm.

Okay. Okay.

I'm sorry. I was just kidding.

Hey! Don't stand on my head. Sit down.

I don't know.

Should I stand in front of Puneet's wife or

sit down with my friend or lie on the sofa with the psychiatrist?

- I don't know. - Wow!

You lawyers talk a lot of crap, you know.

Jabber, jabber, jabber, jabber.

Hello. I am a lawyer. It's my job to talk.

While you are a psychiatrist. It's your job to listen.

Let's reverse the roles this once. Okay?

Let me be the lawyer.

As long as you don't take Puneet's side,

- or else you know... - You'll do nothing!

At least not to your pregnant best friend.

Anyway, sit.

Niharika, you're a good human being,

but you're a lousy judge of character.

Maybe Dushyant turns out to be innocent in this case

but he is not a good human being.

You represent people like him, you get hurt and then...

We're back to that same old lecture!

With some new thoughts.

You know what? A question actually.

You took on Dushyant's case.

Why did you keep it from Puneet and me?

Because, maybe, darling,

you knew that it is wrong.

Listen to me.

You know this is not you.

Seriously?

Are you done?

Clearly not.

But you don't want to listen

and I don't want to fight.

Why did you come here?

To take Puneet's side?

I know you are married

but you are my f****** best friend!

You know what?

I will accept any case that I choose to accept.

It's an open and shut case, your honor.

My client was beaten by her husband time and again.

The doctor's notes,

testimonies from neighbors to Police personnel, have been presented to you.

With the acceptance of Sonali's divorce petition,

her husband should be jailed too.

Who is it?

Greetings, sir.

Yes, SK.

Akshay, may I know what relationship you share with Niharika Singh,

who is owner of a competing law firm?

No.

Don't give me those looks, SK. I'll fall in love.

Dushyant just axed us so that Niharika Singh can be his new lawyer.

So, I guess, that leaves us with one question.

Did you make her scream in bed or was it the other way round?

Nice! Nice! Nice!

Looks like JJ has f****** with your head too.

Did I use that right?

Yeah, your face tells me I did. Good!

It's very simple.

Dushyant is no longer our client. He is hers.

The sooner you rise above this break up, the better.

Are you trying to wreck the firm, Akshay?

Dushyant was extremely important for us.

SK. SK. SK. SK.

You know what your problem is?

You think too much but understand too little.

Let me explain.

The Duke Brothers want to abandon Dushyant.

Atisha's statements are already spreading over the media, privately.

She is a film star.

He is a dirty, insane wife beater.

He is more of a liability and less of a client.

And, SK, honestly speaking,

I really hated the way he treated you.

Akshay, Jinglepur was massive for us.

Massive! Don't you get it?

Oh, I get it.

Therefore, not Dushyant but the Company is still our client,

In fact, it will be here any second.

What?

The Company will be here in a few months

and the girl will be here in a few seconds.

Hi, Zoya.

Hi, Akshay.

Meet SK. My partner.

So, do you wanna tell him or

- should I? - Oh! Allow me.

Yeah.

First. I represent Atisha Mewani Rathore.

Second. I don't lose cases.

So, the wife beater will lose his board seat

and the CEO's post will be vacant.

Atisha, after the divorce settlement,

will be owner of 17.83 percent of Jinglepur Industries

naturally, she will take a seat on the board

as well as the post of Co-CEO,

along with an industry veteran, of course.

At which point,

I will go from personal council to become Jinglepur Industries council,

if I have a large firm backing me.

Hence, third.

You.

Exactly!

That is why I made a very lucrative... I hope.

Offer to Ms. Ahmed, so that...

The Jinglepur account returns to us.

He finally gets it.

You know if JJ were here, he would say,

SK works slowly but steadily.

I accept your offer with an undertaking.

I shall fight my cases the way I wish.

I will not tolerate any pressure from you

or any kind of political pressure.

Okay. Let me show you to your office.

Okay.

Come.

Pollution is very high.

One can't even enjoy smoking a cigarette.

What do you think?

Shall we implicate odd-even tomorrow onwards?

- Do you think you can get it done? - With the click of a finger.

A Chief Minister has unlimited powers.

He can change the public's future with the snap of his finger.

I know that you want to get Farhan and Reema out of jail

but Dushyant's competent lawyer,

your ex-partner, my ex-employee

and my son's ex-god knows what, won't let it happen.

She is treading on her path and I am treading on my path.

You need a partner on your path.

You are the master of manipulation.

No, no. I am serious.

You needed Niharika to defeat me in court.

You needed her help.

You are a competent lawyer. No doubt about that

but you cannot stand up to her without help.

Thank you.

I just needed your approval.

Goodbye.

The stones were pelted from amidst the crowd.

Amidst the IDPs.

Amidst your friends.

Did you call me here to tell me that?

- The whole world knows it. - But the stone pelter

wasn't from Earth N(e)xt.

He wasn't one of the IDPs.

- Do you have evidence? - Sure, I do.

And I can give it to you if you wish.

On the basis of the information

you can get Amar, Akbar and Anthony released

along with Farhan and Reema from jail.

- Price? - Price is a dirty word, buddy.

Let's call it a donation.

- What do you want? - Puneet Tandon.

Chief Prosecutor.

National Capital Territory of Delhi.

Basically you want me to become your pet dog.

Not at all.

You rejected the law firm partnership.

You don't want a job.

You're going to be a father.

If not for you and me, Do it as a favor to your unborn child

Accept my proposal,

and come to the right side of the scales of justice.

Here you are, ma'am. Your very own office.

Oh! Wow!

Yeah, I know. It's a bit of a pig sty.

But adjust a little and bring us Jinglepur,

and I swear to you,

SK will give you my office.

Okay. Yeah, it's perfect.

What exactly is the relationship between Niharika Singh and you?

I don't mean to intrude.

I have heard this question for the second time today.

Oh! No, no. Withdrawn.

No, no. It's all right. It's all right.

The term "It's complicated"

is mine and Niharika's contribution to the world,

but no matter what, rest assured,

it won't come in the way of work.

Good!

I'm glad, because I am going to destroy her

along with Dushyant.

And I don't want to break anyone's heart in this office.

And particularly not the heart that hired me.

Well, don't worry about the relationship

but don't underestimate her.

She's the fiercest lawyer I know.

Noted.

- Bye. - Yeah, hi.

What?

F***, no. Was Rocky with you?

Yeah. No, I'm coming. I'm coming.

I gotta change.

Until the next appointment,

just go over the grounding techniques we practiced.

- Sure. - Okay?

- Thank you so much, doctor. - All right. Take care.

Hi!

JJ knows who Dushyant commissioned to pelt stones.

And the prize?

Chief Public Prosecutor.

Take it.

What? He'll control me forever.

Can you think of a better way to get Farhan and Reema out?

Even if I have to be a slave to JJ

till this one gets married?

Puneet, you are a good and honest lawyer.

You are going to practice law in any case,

so practice it as a Chief Public Prosecutor.

Appearances can be deceptive.

Take advantage of JJ's muscle for as long as you can.

Take on cases and ensure people get justice.

And when he asks for a favor that you cannot do! Just Quit!

Live a comfortable unemployed life.

Okay? I'll manage things.

Bye.

'But, Sue, by this logic,

what Niharika is doing is also correct.'

'No, Puneet.

You are helping others while she's helping herself.'

Thank God you're here, ma'am.

Black, no sugar.

- Thanks. - Dushyant sir is calling.

Answer it.

Shanaya, make the client wait until he gives you what you want.

He shouldn't think I'm free.

Come here with me first, ma'am.

This family will drive me crazy.

- Who is the client? - Both parties are here.

It will take only two minutes.

I'll am with you.

You'll have to be strong.

Okay.

It hurts.

I am unable to speak.

We have arrived at the Police station, ma'am.

Don't go in. Thirty minutes later.

Return the tea! This is not for you.

Here. Snatch this as well.

- You see this, sister? - I can see. I see it daily.

I am distressed, God!

What is the problem with seeing it daily.

There is a problem. She got married to Dharmendra

but you turned out to be Bobby.

- If he wasn't your brother... - They are the same family,

they live in the same house and they are suing each other.

That wasn't necessary. You look like you've eaten well.

He did not invest in my bakery, ma'am.

It was sister's money.

Please take me on as your client and prove it.

I am older. She will take me on as her client.

No chance. She will take me on as her client.

Sit down. She will take me on as her client.

- Mine. - Mine.

Hold on!

We shall listen to both of you separately.

You will come with me and you take him with you, Shanaya.

- Come. - Yes, ma'am.

Come on! Hurry! The car is here!

- Get the camera rolling. - I am. I am.

Let's go.

- Ma'am. - Can you tell us what happened?

You have to answer us, Ms. Zoya. Answer one question. Please.

So many f*** times

Atisha.

As you all can see,

my client Atish Mewani Rathore has been beaten.

Yesterday evening her husband Dushyant Rathore did this to her

in a fit of rage.

We have come here to file an FIR against Dushyant Rathore.

Aside from Physical violence,

My client has suffered long time mental abuse.

Mr. Dushyant Rathore has attempted to gag us before

but we are here with concrete evidence today.

We are confident that the monster, Dushyant, will be punished

as early as possible.

- Hi, Dushyant. - I've been calling and calling and calling.

That woman won't rest till she sends me to jail.

What happened?

F***! Watch the news!

Ma'am.

-It's all over the place.

Listen. Calm down. I'll file for an anticipatory bail.

You won't go to jail no matter what you've done. Okay? Stay put.

- Niharika, I w...

FIRs aren't registered with the media, ma'am.

- Rules are followed over here. - Rules?

Following the rules is not easy, Mr. Tanwar.

What do you mean?

4:33 pm. It is Friday.

The court will shut at five.

We won't get bail before Monday.

Naveen, Hurry up!

Is that your bike?

I mean you've had your name written on it,

so it must belong to you.

It isn't available in India.

You must have imported it.

Did you pay the custom's duty or just slip it in.

You're not understanding, Niharika.

I will never be able to recover from this.

Forget the financial losses, My reputation will be marred apart.

Nothing of that sort will happen, Dushyant. Trust me.

Are you threatening me?

Yes.

It's just that I am stickler for rules.

You conduct your investigation to perfection.

Everyone will be happy.

Just two minutes, ma'am.

Mr. Sharad.

The court is closed, Niharika Ma'am.

Judge Chhetri is still listening to a case.

It's only an anticipatory bail, Mr. Sharad.

The court's time has ended.

This is not Lodhi garden where you can stroll your way in

- to see the judge. - Mr. Sharad. Mr. Sharad.

The matter is urgent. I will get a date out of the judge.

Try to understand, ma'am. The court time has ended.

The judge has issued strict orders. Nobody is to meet with him.

- The court is adjourned for the day. - There.

Come back on Monday and file an application.

You will certain get bail, ma'am.

Ma'am!

Did Mr. Merwan and Mr. Bakhtiyar come to see you?

They are lunatics!

They waste their time fighting.

By the time they find out there is no merit in the case,

time slips by.

I wonder where Ms. Zoya finds such people.

Did you raise your hand on Ms. Atisha?

Did you hit her?

She has accused you.

Tell us, Mr. Dushyant.

Breaking news.

Mr. Dushyant Rathore has been remanded to custody

for domestic violence against his wife Atisha Mewani Rathore.

His lawyer Niharika Singh arrived late in court

and failed to get him bail.

This is to inform you that Dushyant Rathore was in the news recently

his company, Jinglepur Industries, is involved in the Narela land scam,

which is being tried in court.

Exactly. So why just two days in remand?

He is a scoundrel!

Drag him into the street and shoot him!

End the blasted matter!

He is running a reign of terror.

Dushyant Rathore's problems are increasing by the minute,

'On one hand stone pelting took place outside Jinglepur Industries,

and the demand to investigate into the IDP land scam case,

on the other hand Delhi Police has arrested him for domestic violence.'

Dushyant,

you will get bail on Monday. You'll be out of here.

The Duke Brothers have returned to America.

No investor is going to touch me

and my Board is discussing to replace me

with Atisha Mewani Rathore.

Remember the b**** I'm divorcing.

You can't handle a simple divorce case

and she wants to be a lawyer for Jinglepur Industries.

I'm gonna take care of all of them.

They want keep you in holding. I won't let you go to jail.

Meanwhile, just tell me something.

What did you do?

What have you done?

I made a mistake.

With you!

Hiring you was my f****** mistake!

A lawyer who doesn't trust her own client.

I mean, come on! It's your f****** job, Niharika!

You're right.

I don't know.

Ever since I've had you as my client, I've been off my game.

Dushyant, trust me. I'll fight for you.

Harder than anyone else can.

Monday... Monday, you'll be out of here.

Just two more days.

Dushyant...

I'm sorry.

I really am.

- Look, a womanizer like Dushyant shouldn't be in any position of power.

- He's a predator.

- And he must be punished for his crime.

- I agree.

- Dushyant's case should be speed tracked.

- We can't afford to have this case go on for years,

- letting a person like Dushyant walk free,

- committing the same crime again and again.

- Exactly! - Exactly!

- Exactly! - Okay.

- So, not slow at all then.

Yeah.

Hey, what's wrong?

It was a terrible day, Akshay.

Sorry to hear that.

I'm here anytime you need an ear, okay.

Thanks.

Just not right now.

On that note,

I have something to say.

I know we said we wouldn't discuss business but...

I have to tell you something.

I know you're upset that I...

snatched Jinglepur account from you guys but...

No. No. Not at all.

As I told you, I have no interest in Dushyant whatsoever.

- Really? - Yeah.

Thanks, Akshay.

Akshay, if we want this relationship to work

we'll have to separate our professional grievances

from our personal space.

Yeah. Right.

I agree.

So, then, tell me what will you have.

I have a red, I have a white and I have a rosy.

Can I get a hug?

Of course. Come here.

I've known Janardhan for a very long time.

He called me after a long time only because of the Jinglepur scam.

I couldn't lie to him.

May I record this?

Don't worry, Laalu.

JJ sir promised that nothing will happen to you.

I got involved

in this matter in 2019,

when he fell in love with the Narela land.

I used to be a don.

Getting rid of displaced people, convincing them.

With Lakhan Mandal.

Did Dushyant Rathore personally hire you to do this job?

No, I don't know him

but there was this man...

What did he say his name was?

Suresh. Suresh Jain.

So, what happened on the day of the protest?

Did you receive a call?

Yes, sir.

Two nights prior.

He said to go ahead and make trouble.

So, on the day of the protests, you went there

explicitly to pelt stones on the express orders of Suresh Jain.

I work for money.

Show me the money

and I do the job.

And you are saying this in your senses, not under duress.

Yes.

And if asked, will you repeat this in court?

Absolutely!

Hey.

What happened?

Akshay, Puneet... Sue...

everyone has abandoned me.

If feel like I'm...

If feel like I'm all alone.

No.

You're not alone.

I am here.

You're not alone at all.
