(Mitra) Here you came in.

BISHWAJIT MITRA

And here...

(keyboard clicks)

You came out.

But where are those two people?

The electricians.

Electricians?

When I was in the chamber, two electricians came there, sir.

They were still there when I left.

- (Ravi) Apparently... - Hey.

...they came to check some short-circuit.

Their footage is missing, sir.

We would have got their footage if they had been there.

That's what I am saying, sir. They are not there.

Confess.

Did you kill him and then hang him?

Or did you hang him and kill him?

- Sir, please believe me. - (chair screeches)

- The footage is missing. - Priyal Deshpande.

Dixit sir's assistant.

I got a call from the police station.

Do you know him?

Of course. Dr. Ravi Bhatt.

What is he doing here?

He was the last person to meet Justice Dixit.

He entered the chamber at 8 o'clock.

And he came out at 9 o'clock.

Nobody else went in or came out.

CCTV evidence clearly states

that he has committed the murder.

- What? - Sir, hold on.

If you believe that I killed Dixit sir at 9 o'clock

and came out of his chamber,

then, sir,

how can Dixit sir send me this message at 9:30?

- It's a lie. - What?

It's a lie.

- Sir-- - He has sent the message.

Sir, what are you saying?

Sir, look.

First of all, my brother never speaks lies.

Secondly, my brother was in the hotel room with me at 9:30.

- Sir, you-- - No. No.

Fine.

- Sir, you don't trust us. - No.

You don't trust us. Do one thing.

Check the geolocation of my brother's phone and Dixit sir's phone.

If my brother's location shows a hotel and Dixit sir's location shows court,

it's crystal clear, sir.

He was alive till 9:30.

Exactly, sir.

- Patil. - Sir.

(Priyal) Amazing, sir.

You solved the case in eight hours.

No post-mortem report.

No prima facie evidence.

No motive.

Only CCTV footage.

Which can be tampered too.

Is this your evidence?

Really?

Circumstantial evidence, madam.

In that case, sir,

under section 330 and 331,

you cannot even talk to him.

Leave alone interrogate him.

You must be a lawyer in the court.

But the police station's working system is different.

So bring strong evidence that works.

And then arrest him.

He can leave now, can't he?

(suspenseful music)

Both of them are now your responsibility.

As a witness and lawyer,

sign here.

If you cross the city limits,

I will follow my working system.

Thank you.

Hi, sir.

Bro, what is going on?

Something is fishy, Adi.

It's a major conspiracy.

An entire section of CCTV footage was missing.

I am damn sure that the two guys

who came to the chamber last night are behind all this.

But, bro...

Thanks, Priyal.

I am really sorry for your loss.

Ravi, I don't understand something.

Dixit sir had only six months left.

Why would anybody kill him?

- What do you mean by six months? - What?

He had stage four cancer.

He was suffering.

No wonder.

That's why he wanted to meet me urgently.

What did both of you talk about?

He told me that like my father

I am also a Shiledar.

What do you mean by "Shiledar"?

A Shiledar has only one life purpose.

To safeguard Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's treasure.

Hold on. Hold on.

What are you saying, bro?

Treasure? Shiledar?

Bro, are you even listening to yourself?

What else did he say?

He wanted to tell me something else too.

But those two electricians came there.

And then he asked me to leave immediately.

His message is so random.

- See. - Show me.

(Aditya) "More power to you.

"May courage guide your dreams,

"pride fill your heart, and confidence

"be your constant companion."

It's a very random message.

Why would he send this message to you?

Did you notice something?

Look.

Lowercase. Uppercase. Lowercase. Uppercase.

So many typos.

How can a judge make so many typing errors?

Exactly.

(intriguing music)

Why are these specific letters in capital?

E-A-R-H-C-B-M.

It means something.

A-H-C-B-E-M-R.

C-R-E-A-M. Cream.

- Reach? - Omar?

B-E-A-C-H.

Bro, reach the beach. You have to go to the beach.

Charm.

Charm. Amber.

Charm.

- But-- - Charm.

Chamber.

Yes. It is the chamber.

Whose chamber?

Judge Dixit's chamber.

It means what Dixit sir wanted to tell me is in his chamber.

I have to go there at any cost.

Shall we go, Priyal?

Hold on. Hold on.

Hello, bro.

- It's not a garden. - (car alarm beeps)

What do you mean by you have to go? You are the prime suspect.

If you are caught,

it will be confirmed that you are the murderer.

Adi, the accident that killed my mother and father wasn't an accident.

What do you mean?

They were murdered like Dixit sir.

What?

I want to find out who is behind all this.

Priyal.

You were with Dixit sir for quite a few years.

You must have access to his chamber.

Yes.

Let's go.

(exhilarating music)

- (music fades out) - (sighs heavily)

(in Kannada) I made a mistake, sir. I am very sorry.

Bloody fool!

Will your apology bring the judge back to life?

Will he tell me the treasure's whereabouts?

What do I do, sir?

(in Kannada) I got angry.

I pushed him a little and he died.

Don't forget.

I am the descendant of Vijayanagar Empire's emperor.

Similarly, you are the descendant of the Senapati.

I have to pay a heavy price for your rage.

Do one thing.

Keep an eye on the doctor.

I think last night the judge must have told the doctor

something about the treasure.

(in Kannada) Okay, sir. No more mistakes.

Keep an eye.

(intense music builds)

(car engine starts)

(bustling traffic)

(car engine halts)

Adi, do one thing. Wait here.

Call me if you notice anything suspicious.

- Done, bro. - We will be back soon.

Careful.

(door opens, shuts)

(police siren blaring in distance)

Shanta, come to the court with Sundar.

(intriguing music)

This place looks different at night and different during the day.

Let's go from here. There will be less security.

He is with me. The investigation is going on.

Thank you.

(suspenseful music)

- (door closes) - (music fades out)

(footsteps)

Without Dixit sir, this chamber...

We need to get to work. We don't have much time.

Hmm.

(intense music builds)

(van engine whirring)

(door shuts)

(Ravi) Priyal.

What could Dixit sir mean by these words?

Power, courage, pride and confidence.

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.

Yes. Of course.

(photo frame slides)

How did I miss this?

Ashok Stambh.

What does Ashok Stambh denote?

Power, courage, pride and confidence.

Exactly these four words.

Which means Dixit sir was talking about Ashok Stambh in his message.

(music intensifies)

Boss, they were talking about Ashok Stambh.

Then they became quiet suddenly.

Damn it.

They are onto something.

I will have to go and check personally.

(zips)

(police siren blaring)

(car doors open, shut)

- Patil. - Yes, sir.

Go ahead.

- Kamble. - Sir.

Come with me.

(suspenseful music)

(phone ringing)

Yes, Adi.

Bro, Inspector Mitra is here.

Keep watch. We will leave quickly.

Inspector Mitra is at the gate.

It takes eight minutes to reach here from the gate.

We just have five.

(exhales heavily)

- Anybody inside? - No, sir.

(headphone clatters)

Sir,

that's my van. Any problem?

Your van?

I am just a driver, sir.

Repair work is going on in the court for the past few days.

That's why I have come.

What did you eat last night?

Sir?

What did you eat last night?

Sambhar.

Sambhar and rice.

At home?

Or here?

Homemade, sir. At home.

(Mitra) Is that so?

Since last night, your vehicle is parked here.

Right?

I return home by bus.

The van is parked here.

After you return home,

two of your electricians

went to the judge's chamber last night.

Why?

I...

(gun clanks)

- (Ravi grunts) - (metal clanks)

(metal clanking)

(Priyal exhales)

(metal wheel clicks)

(exhales)

Okay. Let's crack this.

Four lions.

Four wheels of Dharma.

Elephant, horse, bull and lion

are walking in the same direction. Right to left.

What does it depict?

Unity.

I moved only one wheel.

There was a sound. But nothing happened.

What if we move all four together?

Unity.

Yes.

On the count of three.

Three. Two. One.

(metal wheels click)

(metal lock clanging)

(soulful music)

(banging on door) Open it.

(Patil) Open the door!

Open the door! Who is inside?

(loud banging) Open. Open.

Ravi.

- Ravi. - Huh?

We have to go.

(Patil) Open.

Let's go.

(Patil) Or else I'll break open.

(door banging)

Open the door.

(door handle clacks)

- Open it. - Sir, I don't have the backdoor key.

The equipment is costly. The electricians have it.

- Where are the electricians? - (Prabhu) At home.

They will get late, sir.

Call them. Call them quickly.

(Prabhu) Okay, sir.

(banging on door) Open it. Sir.

(Patil) Sir, Somebody has closed the door

of Dixit sir's chamber from the inside.

- Kamble. Get this guy's details. - Sir.

Yes, Patil.

- (banging on door) - (Patil) Open the door.

Adi.

Bring the car to the exit gate.

Now. Quick.

(Patil) Why don't you open?

(banging continues)

- (Patil) Hey. - (window creaks open)

We'll have to jump.

We don't have any other option.

(thud on metal)

(dynamic music builds)

Come on, jump.

(Patil) Open the door.

Sir.

(door bangs open)

(thud on metal)

(enthralling music)

(car engine halts)

Hey, Doctor!

Kamble, catch them!

(tyres screech)

Hey!

Shit!

- (man) Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj... - (crowd) May he live long!

Shiv Bhushan Award.

This award is conferred to the person

who does notable work on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's life

and his great exploits.

It gives me immense pleasure to inform all of you

that the person who has dedicated his entire life

to this great task is present here today.

We also know him as Shiv Charitrakar.

Mr. Pratap Chandrarao.

(audience applauding)

I request the respected governor Mr. Ramachandran

to honour Mr. Pratap Chandrarao with Shiv Bhushan award.

Sir, please.

(audience applauding)

(intriguing music)

(applauding continues)

Pardon me.

I would like to say something.

I am grateful to the respected governor

and the guests present here for their love and respect.

I don't consider myself worthy of this respect.

- So I won't accept it today. - (cameras clicking)

(indistinct chattering)

I have not only studied Shivaji Maharaj's life.

I have lived his life.

I have only one regret.

We couldn't safeguard his precious heritage.

His sword, his possessions,

his weapons were snatched from us.

What did we do?

(ominous music)

Nothing.

That's why

I have dedicated my entire life

to regain his priceless heritage and safeguarding it.

I have done a lot.

But there is still a lot to be done.

Maharaj.

My mission isn't over.

Even today, a question

doesn't let me sleep peacefully.

Shivcharitra's pride,

the seat of Hindavi Swarajya

is still missing.

The day I find the answer I will feel

I am worthy of Shiv Bhushan award.

Meanwhile,

(in Marathi) I am sorry.

Pardon me.

(audience applauding)

Sir. Sir.

(reporters clamouring)

(applauding continues)

(intriguing music)

SHIV BHUSHAN AWARD 2023

(car tyres screech)

- Two cups of coffee and green tea. - Okay, sir. Okay.

(Pratap on TV) Shivcharitra's pride,

the seat of Hindavi Swarajya.

The day I find the answer

I will feel I am worthy of the Shiv Bhushan award.

(reporter) Maharashtra's famous Shiv Charitrakar

Pratap Chandrarao has refused to accept the Shiv Bhushan award.

Let's find out people's reactions.

What is this, bro?

I have no idea.

Dixit sir had hidden it, which means it must be important.

This paper was also there.

- Along with this? - Yes. Below it.

It's blank.

It's an old parchment paper.

Its fold is new.

Which means somebody hid it there recently.

(glasses clank on table)

Why will Dixit sir keep a blank paper?

Just like that.

Maybe just like that.

(glass clanks on table)

(Ravi) It must have a purpose.

There has to be something.

(paper rustling)

It's not blank.

Something is...

Invisible ink.

These are numbers.

(Ravi) Yes.

Random numbers.

What are the numbers?

Show me for a second. One second.

- What are you doing? - Hold on, bro.

These are not random numbers, guys.

So?

These are location coordinates.

- Coordinates. - Yes.

What's the location?

Chor Bazaar, Mumbai.

Chor...

(Aditya laughs)

Well done, Adi.

It means Judge Dixit wanted me to go to Chor Bazaar.

Maybe I will find my next clue there.

Next clue. Exactly. (snap fingers)

Chor Bazaar. Let's go.

Let's go.

Adi.

From here,

I will go alone.

Listen to me.

You go to the US to Mom and Dad.

You will get into trouble if you stay with me.

What are you saying, bro?

How can I leave you alone in this mess

and go to the US? That's not going to happen.

I will be with you. And...

we will find the treasure.

What nonsense is this?

Priyal.

I have fled from the crime scene with you.

What will I tell the police if I go back?

Ravi.

We will have to proceed ahead.

We will have to find out who killed Dixit sir and why.

Whatever happens,

we will tackle it together.

(thrilling music)

Cheers.

(Aditya laughs)

Bro, hold on.

What do we do with the car?

Mitra must have noted the car's licence plate number.

And I am sure he is trying to locate the car.

- We will be caught. - (man) Let's go.

Let's leave the car here.

If we leave the car here, how will we go, bro?

(man shouting indistinctly)

(man) Mumbai. Come on, get in.

- By bus. - (man) To Mumbai!

We will go by bus.

Come on.

(Ravi) Hurry up. Or else the bus will depart.

(Aditya) I suggest we change our phone numbers

once we reach there.

If they track our phone numbers,

they will be able to trace our location.

(dynamic music builds)

(bustling traffic)

"Three and a half feet snow cover in Kedarnath."

"Pune sessions court judge Justice Dixit murdered"?

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music continues)

(vehicles buzzing)

- (door creaks) - (bells clang)

(door closes)

Is this Chor Bazaar or a maze?

- Adi. - Tell me the exact location.

We have been searching for so long.

Bro, you can even find God if you search hard.

We will find the exact location too.

Hey. Found it.

God?

The shop.

(banging on door)

The shop is closed. Come tomorrow.

(banging on door)

I said come tomorrow.

I want to talk to you urgently.

(Prashik) Come tomorrow.

(banging on door)

Somebody once told me,

"In order to gain valour,

"you need to first know your duty."

(dynamic music)

(door metal creaks)

Come. Come in.

(music fades out)

Where did you find it?

From Justice Dixit's chamber.

These two?

Sir, I am Aditya Bhatt. Or you can call me Adi.

He is my brother Ravi.

She is Dixit sir's assistant.

Priyal Deshpande.

- I hope nobody followed you. - (Aditya chuckles)

No chance, sir.

We hoodwinked everybody. Don't worry.

Shanta, the doctor is here.

- Shit. We will have to leave. - (Sundar) Boss, come here.

- Come on. - Not from here.

- From the backdoor. - Come on.

- Stop. Stop. - (thrilling music)

(door thuds)

Run. Run that way.

- (door bangs shut) - (chair thuds)

(Sundar) Open the door. Open the door.

(loud thud)

Hey, stop.

Stop.

(upbeat music builds)

Stop or I will shoot you.

Shoot.

(gunshots going off)

- Bro, bro. - Adi, run.

- Hurry up. - Run, Adi.

Hey, stop.

Catch them.

Scoundrel. Stop.

(thuds)

(grunts)

(cycles clattering)

Come on, hurry up.

(intense music builds up)

Stop.

- (music fades out) - (breathing heavily)

(gunshot going off)

(intense music)

(breathing heavily)

- (grunts) - (gunshot going off)

- (grunts) - (gunshot going off)

(screams)

- (gasps) - (surreal music)

- (hard slap) - (screams)

(grunts)

(screams)

(glass shatters)

(screams)

(grunts)

(crashing)

- (screams) - (crashing)

Adi. Priyal.

(grunting in pain)

Let's go, Adi.

Hurry.

Let's go.

(car tyres screech)

(intense music)

- (thuds) - (music fades out)

(bustling traffic)

Sir.

Yes, Patil.

The car is visible in the CCTV footage,

starting from the court to Talegaon toll plaza.

But they didn't cross Khalapur toll plaza, sir.

So they dumped the car somewhere on the road.

- Yes. - Alert the highway patrol.

- Yes, sir. - Sir!

Yesterday's van driver.

His ID card is fake, sir.

And he gave Sundar beauty parlour's number, sir.

It's very complicated.

We will have to nab all three of them.

Sir.

- Come on, Patil. - Yes, sir.

(ominous music)

(keys jingling)

(door opens)

Come.

Come on. Get in.

(door closes)

Sit.

Isn't it paining?

It's not paining, bro.

(Ravi) Thank God it's just a minor wound.

Show me.

They shot at us.

They wanted to kill us.

They are very dangerous people, Ravi.

- (Prashik) Very dangerous. - (glasses clank)

We escaped today. But...

they will attack again.

Sir, who are they?

And why did they kill Dixit sir?

It's an old battle.

What do you mean by an old battle?

What Dixit sir told me is this.

It started after 1680.

After Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's death,

Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj ascended the throne.

But Aurangzeb killed him treacherously.

Taking advantage of the situation,

the Mughals attacked Marathas' capital, Raigad Fort.

The siege of Raigad.

Aurangzeb's general Zulfiqar Khan attacked Raigad in 1689.

Yes.

After capturing the fort,

they tried to steal the treasure.

But before they could do that, a troop of the Maratha army

hid the treasure somewhere.

It was the troop of Shiledars.

It was their responsibility to safeguard the treasure.

Since then,

these scoundrels have been looking for the treasure.

The troop of Shiledars

and their descendants have been safeguarding it.

This seems like...

an Indiana Jones movie.

Are you also a Shiledar?

No.

(sighs)

I am not a Shiledar.

(Priyal) So you...

All this...

How?

Since my childhood, historical stories would give me sleepless nights.

I would go in search

of the stories.

(Prashik) Twenty years ago, I worked as a restorer

for the Archaeological Survey of India.

Dixit sir gave me an unofficial job.

To carry out excavation at certain spots in Maharashtra.

(intriguing music)

(camera clicks)

What Dixit sir was looking for

is in your bag right now, Ravi.

(unzips bag)

But I didn't know I would have to pay such a heavy price for this.

Those scoundrels burned my wife alive in my house.

Dixit sir sent me to Mumbai, away from the dangers.

A new name. A new job.

I settled down here.

In my quest for history,

I lost my present and my future.

But the thing for which my wife Pratipada lost her life,

I will never let those brutes get hold of it.

That's my vow.

That's my reason for living.

Dixit sir met me a few days ago.

He handed me

this key.

And he told me

that a new Shiledar will come one day.

I have to hand it over to him.

(dramatic music)

Remember one thing.

Those who killed Dixit sir

have killed many people.

They can do anything to get hold of this.

Anything.

Sorry, sir. I couldn't reply to your messages.

I was going to give you the latest updates--

(shouts) Why didn't you send it?

Sir, I--

Don't forget your commitment towards your duty, Priyal.

I want the updates of Ravi's next plan at any cost.

Understood?

Yes, sir.

Bloody fool.

(suspenseful music builds up)
