Original subtitles

[Monica] So, Major Gaurav.

Describe the night of the incident.

Ajay had got information on the night of 5th Jan.

That a large consignment was going to be crossed over the border.

These film stars, these cricketers, these politicians.

The money they earn in a day...

...is a lot more than what an army officer earns in a month.

[Suryaveer] Despite that, they do their work.

With complete dedication. Why?

For honour.

Pride.

And when you question that pride,

you are questioning the army.

For the first time, I am extremely scared.

Gaurav, you trust me, right?

Absolutely.

- We already have a lot of details about Ajay and Shakti. - Right.

We will get more information by night.

[Gaurav] I know, but...

What if they come to know by chance, then?

Nobody will ever come to know about anything.

You just follow the plan.

And we will be fine.

[Monica] From 2009 to 2019.

10 years.

[Angad] Gaurav Batch of 2008 IMA.

His first posting?

[Monica] Bhaderwah, Jammu.

- [Angad] Shakti too was with him, right? - Right.

Then they met in Delhi.

- In 2012. - No, in 2012,

[Monica] Shakti was in Delhi and Gaurav was in Punjab.

Oh Okay.

And then both of them were together in Kashmir in 2016.

Shakti did an encounter in Kashmir.

[Angad] And then he was transferred back to Jodhpur...

...six months back.

[Monica] And then they were together at Jodhpur in 2018.

But I don't understand.

If Shakti had done the encounter,

then why was Gaurav transferred here?

I mean. Soldiers are kept away from their families...

- ...so that they can function better. - [Angad] Correct.

But their friendship is quite unbelievable.

I am sure somebody is surely helping...

...them internally from the system.

Otherwise, this is impossible.

If there was somebody helping them internally,

why were they separated from 2012 to 2016?

[Angad] It doesn't make sense. They were separated for 4 years.

One second. Just a minute.

That's it, hold on.

2012.

[Monica] Shakti got married.

And marriage changes everything.

[Angad] No, what I mean. People get married.

You too are getting married.

Anyway, let's focus on this.

- Lot of work. - Yes.

- So 2012, Shakti got married. - Right.

Their pattern has only changed...

...for four years after the wedding.

So you think the wife was a problem.

Well, I am not saying that.

But at this point, we should approach...

...every possible lead. Right?

You have met Serena, right?

Yes. At Sathpathy's party.

- You know what she told me? - [Angad] What?

If you want to enquire anything about them, just ask me.

- [Giggling] - [Monica] Okay.

You think she was trying to tell me something?

What would you have asked if you met her?

In fact, even if you meet her now, what will you ask her?

No.

[Monica] I have to hear now.

When Shakti is not at home.

You have their schedule, right? Show me.

Yes, I have the schedule.

This is their Sunday schedule.

At 11:30 hours, leaves for daughter's swimming class.

12:00 to 1:00, daughter's swimming class.

- At 1:30, he comes back home. - That's it.

- We can go around 11:40. - No, not we.

We have a very little time left.

You should enquire about their transfer.

I will meet Serena.

- [Angad] Cool. Yeah! - Okay.

[Title Montage]

[Shakti] Come on, we are getting late.

[Serena] Okay, go. I have put your costume in here. Okay?

And there is a water bottle.

Quickly go and have fun. Okay?

[Car pulling up]

[Serena] Wear your seat belt, Shivi.

- Sure. - Here!

You have to wear it from front. Don't be naughty.

- [Gate opens] - [Engine starts]

- [Engine starts] - [Car moving]

[Serena] Bye.

[Jeep moving]

- [Gate opens] - Hi, Serena.

[Monica] Hi, I am Major Monica.

Of course. I never forget a face or a name.

Shakti has just stepped out.

- You want me to call him? - No, no.

Actually, I wanted to talk to you.

Come in. Don't be formal with me.

[Chuckles]

[Door opens]

[Serena] Come.

- [Serena] Sorry, don't bother. - [Monica] It is okay.

Shivi never puts the toys in its place.

No matter how hard I try to keep it tidy,

it always looks like a war zone.

But you have a beautiful house.

- Thank you. - Do you manage it yourself?

Mostly. But the maid helps me.

[Monica] Thank you.

Getting a permanent job for an army officer's wife is in vain.

You never know where your husband will be posted next.

I know he can get posted anywhere.

Coffee?

Actually, tea if you don't mind.

Then I will have to call Major Gaurav.

Actually, he is the only one who drinks tea at my house.

He makes it himself when he comes here.

[Serena] Shakti and I like coffee.

I can ask the maid.

But I am not sure about her tea. So...

- I will manage. - [Chuckles]

Please bring two cup of tea.

So, you have been married for six years, right?

Almost.

And you were at Delhi before the wedding.

Yes.

Then posting at Kashmir. And then here at Jodhpur.

When you were in Delhi, Major Gaurav wasn't with you guys?

Have you come to interrogate me?

No. Obviously not.

I am just casually asking.

Who will know him personally better than you?

I understand.

Thank you.

Thank you.

There.

- [Serena] Let's try this. - Thank you.

What should I make for lunch?

Is there pointed gourd at home?

- [Woman 1] Yes. - Make curry and pulses.

- We will have chapatti. - [Woman 1] Okay.

So we were talking about Gaurav.

[Serena] The answer to your question...

...is actually in this picture.

[Monica giggling]

Look at Major Gaurav's face.

[Serena] Right.

- [Giggling] - Why?

I don't know I think they both had a fight during the wedding.

I don't know, but both of them did not talk to each other...

...during the whole wedding.

[Serena] I too did not get the time to ask them about it.

Because there was so much going on during the wedding.

And next thing I know.

Gaurav got posted to Punjab. It happened or was made to.

And then he left without a word.

- Just like that? - Just like that.

- Did you not ask why? - Of course, I asked.

But how can I come between two friends?

[Serena] And I think it was a bit weird.

Because they did not talk to each other...

...for three and half to four years.

I too did not ask.

You know, maybe Shakti would get offended.

But actually, those four years were the...

- ...best years of my married life. - Really?

[Serena] I mean, we would spend a lot of time together.

He would come home directly from office and vice versa.

It was pretty amazing.

[Chuckles]

[Serena] After that, here in Jodhpur.

And the friends are back together.

So my number comes after office, Gaurav, and Shivi.

So my name is much below in the priority list.

[Both giggling]

It is not easy to be married to an army man.

Thanks for the tea, Serena.

- And thanks for... - [Shakti] Mom, look who is here.

[Serena] Hi.

- Hi. - She came to meet you.

[Shakti] Then why did you not call?

[Monica] I tried but could not get through.

Okay, tell me.

[Shakti] What do you want?

It was about the case.

Alright, I am listening.

Right. The thing is that...

[Phone ringing]

Excuse me, I have to take this.

Mehra, you won't believe what I just found.

What?

You just stay where you are. I will be right there.

I said I will be right there.

Why are you yelling?

I will be right there.

Yes, but I am right here. Where will I go?

You stay there, I am coming. I am coming now.

Okay, fine.

I am sending you the address. You come there.

[Monica] I am leaving right now. I am coming and you wait there.

So glad she f**king dumped me.

I am sorry, I have to go.

[Monica] I will meet you at the base tomorrow.

Thank you.

[Footsteps]

[Serena] Monica,

it was nice having you over.

I hope you got what you were looking for.

Thank you.

[Door opens]

[Car pulling up]

[Car door opens]

[Car door closes]

Hello. Excuse me.

What are we doing here?

Now that we are in Rajasthan,

we might as well enjoy the roadside stalls.

You said over the phone that you found out something.

By the way, you called me at the right time.

What did you find out?

Wait for it.

- Red mutton. - Angad, are you serious?

Two oven cooked chapatti for me.

And one butter chapatti for madam.

Hurry up and get it soon.

Mehra, sit down.

Chill, Mehra. I too was working here.

Sit down.

- [Angad] I have great information. - What?

About Gaurav and Shakti's by choice postings.

Guess who Gaurav's dad is?

[Angad] Lieutenant General Jay Shankar Shekhawat.

Yeah!

Son demands postings from his father.

And father agrees as he is his dear son.

I knew it. Otherwise, it is impossible, right?

Yeah. Forget this.

You will lose your senses after hearing this.

The day of the encounter, Ajay was off duty.

- What? - [Angad] Yes.

Just a minute.

Shakti and Gaurav has said in every confession...

...that Ajay was with them.

But the truth is that his name wasn't there on the roster.

[Angad] Thank you.

Let's eat a bit.

[Monica] Let's go.

- [Angad] But this is red mutton. - [Monica] Let us go, Angad.

[Angad] Oh f**k, it is amazing. Hail red mutton.

[Monica] Tripathy, quickly take us to Major Ajay's place.

- [Angad] Speed up. - [Car moving]

[Tripathy] Gayatri had got all these decorative things for him.

And these curtains.

She had specially ordered them from Jaipur.

I had gone to fetch it.

So typical of Gayatri.

Thank God she could meet him for the last time before he left.

Did Gayatri meet Ajay on the day of the mission?

I did not get that chance.

Did Gayatri meet Ajay on the day of the mission?

Yes, of course.

I had brought her here...

[Tripathy] ...secretly.

Gayatri.

Udaipur, first thing tomorrow.

[Angad] Yes.

[Car pulling up]

- Angad. Listen, I... - Yes.

You want to do this alone, right?

Carry on.

- Thanks. - [Car door opens]

- Call me when you are done. - Yes.

- [Car door closes] - [Footsteps]

[Doorbell rings]

[Door opens]

- [Mrs Chauhan] Mona. - Aunty.

- How are dear? - I am fine. How are you?

I am fine, dear.

I have pain in the joints is all.

Gayatri, come out.

It was very good of you to come.

She has turned into a mess by staying alone.

[Door opens]

I missed you.

I missed you too.

I'm...

I am sorry I took so long to come.

Repeat that five times.

Sorry.

Sorry.

Sorry.

Sorry.

[Monica] I am so sorry.

I am so so sorry.

[Gayatri] Come. Let's go in.

Hmm?

Called of the wedding means?

[Monica] Just for the time being.

It was a small argument.

You don't worry about that.

How are you?

No, Mon. Listen to me.

If there is a problem, solve it.

Listen, it is difficult to find love in life.

- [Gayatri] If you find it, you've to hold on to it. - I will.

I promise you I will sort it out.

[Monica] How are you?

[Exhales]

I am better.

At the army base,

even dad's uniform was also making me mad.

At least, nobody knows here.

So, they don't sympathize.

Anyway,

you have a habit of dealing with every problem alone. Hmm?

I was pampered.

I depended a lot on Ajay.

[Gayatri] He used to support me a lot, Mon.

You know, on the last evening,

he was making me understand...

...that why I should not be scared of horror films.

It was so stupid. But...

He was so sweet.

[Gayatri] You are reporting this case, right?

Write good adjectives about Ajay.

I will read it if I ever get the courage.

- [Phone ringing] - Excuse me.

Hello.

[Angad] Inform me 10-15 minutes before leaving. Okay?

No worries. Call me once you reach.

- [Angad] Okay, cool. - Okay. Bye.

Listen, I just want to ask you something.

Tell me this.

Gaurav and Shakti, were they friends with Ajay?

I never could understand that.

There was a time when all three of them were good friends.

[Gayatri] They used to plan and go for a trek together.

But then later...

I don't know. There was a phase...

...where Ajay would neither talk to them nor about them.

Why?

[Gayatri] I don't know.

Maybe they had a fight.

You know what boys are like.

Fight for two days and are back again on the third day.

[Gayatri] But Ajay was very upset then.

Then he got better on his own.

That was him, Monica.

Very emotional.

But, very, very sweet.

I am sure.

[Gayatri] I am still angry.

I wish I had kept his phone on silent that day.

Then he would not have answered Shakti's call.

And he would be here with me today.

Mon, he would be here with me.

Hang on.

Shakti called Ajay for the mission?

[Gayatri] Yes, he was on leave that day.

That's why we were together.

On 5th January, in the evening, Ajay got the information.

A large consignment of arms was going to cross the border.

He informed us because...

...we were following the boys for a while.

[Monica] But Shakti said, Ajay had informed him.

Ajay had got the information on the night...

...of 5th Jan at 17:40 hours...

...that the terrorists from Munabao village...

...were crossing the border with a large consignment of arms.

Take care.

Be strong. Okay?

[Monica] I will meet you soon.

And I will finish the report soon.

[Monica] You should read it for me.

[Footsteps]

[Car door opens]

- [Car door closes] - [Sighs]

Hey, all good?

Gaurav and Shakti killed Ajay.

What?

And maybe I know why.
