01x01 - You shouldn't have come back, Dev

[bunniefuu]

Hey...

That's a six!

-A six!
-That's a six!

Hey, stupid!
Go, bring the ball.

Why do you always send me?

That's because you're stupid.

Stupid! Stupid!

Stupid! Stupid!

Stupid! Stupid!

Stupid! Stupid!

I made a mistake.
It won't happen again.

That's what your mother said
when you were born.

-Hey!
-I... I approved the road quality.

On the second attempt.

No... no!

Did you smoke up, Dev?

What do you know?!

Crushed it, lit it
The whole room was smoke-filled

Smoked up until it hit
And turned my eyes red

Lose your senses, forget the world
Take a puff, sway unfurled

f*ck the world, get the ashtray
Live it up at the backstage

Damn it!

Sweets.

From Mathura.

Thank you, boss.

Shed some weight.

Bloody butterball!

There's a client.

Centre Marbles.

Anil Mahajan.

We need to clear out a protest.

Over to you.

Some tribals have blocked
the path to the mine of Centre Marbles.

That has adversely affected business.

The party wants them
to be dispersed immediately.

Tribals in Gurugram?

Are there marble mines in Gurugram?

Dumbass!

Where's it?

Lakhot.

Dumbass.

Your beloved place.

Boss...

You are aware that my relationship...

is a little complicated with...

Complicated?

With whom?

With Lakhot.

Life is fraught with difficulties.

And some people exploit
these difficulties for their benefit.

You also seem to be in the mood
to get your hand crushed.

You have local knowledge.

Set out with your car tonight itself.

Your Fortuner.

Fortuner?

Boss' old car?

Are you out of your mind?

I'm going there after ten years.

I thought I'd make something of myself.
So, I should act like it.

If anything happens to the car,

you will not be spared.

It's Pinky's birthday gift.

Happy birthday, Pinky.

Perhaps I should have
never gone back to Lakhot.

Ten years is a very long time.

But not long enough
to erase the memories of Lakhot.

To be honest, I have
broken many hearts in Lakhot.

Mine was one among them.

Sometimes I wonder whether
broken people can ever heal.

Who's to say?

But anyway...

let's head back to Lakhot.

And then I'll think to myself...

that I should have...

never returned to Lakhot.

Where will I find Sunil Mahajan?

He's not here yet.

So...

what's new?

This?

A foreign woman was found dead.

She was buried in the sand.

Why do these nitwits come
to secluded areas at all?

That's true.

The boss is here.

Mr. Sunil, hear me out.

RP, my boss at New Deal Associates,
had a word with Mr. Anil.

I drove all night from Gurugram.
Please hear me out.

Mr. Sunil!

Why isn't he answering?

Mr. Sunil, I have spoken
to your elder brother.

-Mr. Anil...
-No, man! It's definitely a mistake.

I thought Anil would have
understood the situation.

Mistake?

You may leave.

I'm sorry, what?

Go back to Gurugram.

Don't worry.
I'll talk to my brother.

He doesn't understand the politics here.

We shouldn't interfere.

Besides, they are mere tribals.
How long will they protest?

Eventually, they will be
reminded of their cattle and daily wages.

That will defuse the situation.

But would you please explain to me
what the situation is?

What are they so upset about?

It's nothing. If you leave now,
you will be home by tonight.

-I don't want to...
-Go.

-Listen...
-Drive safe.

f*ck!

Boss.

Sunil Mahajan has a different agenda.

He drove me away by saying that
the tribals would give up and leave.

He's not the person in question,
you fool!

We'll be answerable to his elder brother
Anil Mahajan here in Gurugram.

That's right.

Go to the mines
and find out who their leader is.

But, boss...

And stop calling me so often
as if you're my girlfriend!

I already have Pinky.

Yeah, right.

Pinky.

Son of a b*tch.

The duo, mad as a hatter
Is here with a Fortuner

The duo, mad as a hatter
Is here with a Fortuner

The duo, mad as a hatter
Is here...

Come on...

Scoundrel!

What an asshat!

The forest gives us life

It brings us oxygen and peace

If you jeopardize its process
You'll be in deep trouble

The forest gives us life
It brings us oxygen and peace

If you jeopardize its process
You'll be in deep trouble

Don't you dare disturb its process!

Pay close attention
Hear the cries of Mother Earth

What's with the funfair?

There's no fun in that fair.

But it's good for my business.

It has been going on
for about five days.

These people want the government
to catch the murderers.

The dead body was found
behind the mines after all.

-The foreign woman?
-No.

-The deer.
-Deer?

Yeah. Well...

a group of hunters shot an innocent deer.

The villagers rushed there
upon hearing the g*nsh*t...

but the hunters had fled the place.

Who is their leader?

The man...

in the checkered shirt.

Vikas Kachdaar.

He's an educated man from Delhi.

I've heard that he's a doctor.

Okay.

I see.

As you sow, so shall you reap

Wake up and listen to the cries
Before it's too late

Mr. Vikas.

Devendra Singh Tomar.

You can call me Dev.

I'm from Centre Marbles' head office
in Gurugram.

Dev.

How may I help you?

Both of us can be of help to each other.

I'm here to discuss that.

Interesting.

Go on.

Right here?

How about we meet somewhere
later this evening?

Yeah?

Sorry, I gotta go.

What...

When are we meeting next?

Tomorrow evening. Right here.

Right.

Sir.

He got into a fight
with another dog last night.

The bones in the hind leg have broken.

Does it hurt?

Are you in pain?

Would you like some?

Easy come, easy go.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Mercy, sir.

There has been a small mistake.

A small mistake?

It's a crime, Rajbir.

Extremely idiotic.

It was a simple job.

Yes, Mr. Kairav. I agree.

Now... no debate.

I swear on my mother.

Everything is under control.

Mr. Kairav, may I... go?

If everything's under control, sir...

Just get lost, man.

Just leave.

Your regular little treats will be
sent to your police station. Okay?

Listen!

Take that dead dog
along with your dead body.

Get it?

Hey, SHO!

What are you dragging?
Your doleful fate?

What is this Kachdaar
doing with these two?

Dr. Vikas.

Welcome.

It's so good to see that
our people are progressing.

Our people?

Of course.

Please have a seat.

You know...

my mother, she was a Bhenno.

We may not be the same tribe,
you and I, but...

I know the suffering that comes with...

being a neglected minority in this nation.

Milk, sugar?

A little milk, no sugar.

Of course. At your service.

That's it.

You see, Vikas...

your demands are justified.

Now, as the President of
Lakhot Marble Mining Association,

I'll be straight.

Your protest...

is posing a problem...

to our associate, Centre Marbles.

-Biscuit?
-No, thanks.

You tell me...

what should be done.

I can get anything done.

For you, as well.

Look...

elections are just around the corner.

And a revolutionary, energetic,
charismatic leader is always needed...

by the Home Minister.

Mr. Kairav...

all of this won't end so easily.

Look, Mr. Vikas, let me be honest.

It's beyond the police officers' capacity
to track down a random hunter.

Who knows who they were, where they
came from, and where they went?

Who knows?

-Mr. Kairav.
-Yes?

Since you're being so honest
about all these things...

I should try being
a little honest, as well.

Go ahead.

I'm sure you have gathered that
this is not about the deer.

This is about the land.

This land belongs to the Kachdaars.
It's ours.

It belonged to my father.

And before that to his father,
and before that to his father.

I have inherited it.

And I have all the rights
to lease it out to the mines.

Isn't it?

Come on! Isn't it, Mr. Vikas?

Traditionally, the land has belonged
to the Kachdaars for eons.

This...

this is a sacred land for us.

If your father were alive today,
he would never have permitted mining.

My father was dim-witted.

What I inherited was...

a useless barren land.

Think about the development that occurred
in Lakhot with the arrival of mines.

Jobs...

mobile phones, motorcycles.

It has changed your lives.

"Your lives"?

Didn't you just say they are "our people"?

Look, Mr. Vikas, nobody can stop
the storm of this development.

For how long will your...

protest go on?

As long as it's necessary.

Didn't you just say that the elections
are just around the corner?

Yes?

I...

-Is Mr. Rajendra around?
-He's in a meeting. You are?

Dev.

-His son.
-Sorry. Whose son?

-Ma'am, what's your name?
-Lata.

Ms. Lata, I'm looking
for Rajendra Singh Tomar.

Like I said, I'm his younger son.

But Mr. Rajendra has only one son.

Jayendra.

Yes.

He's my elder brother.

I've been working here for seven years.

-I would know if my boss had a...
-Ms. Lata.

Please tell him that
there are no ruffians here.

Jay!

How are you, bro?

It's been so long.

Sir, he says that
he's your younger brother...

Ms. Lata, what did I say?

Tell him that there are
no ruffians in this family.

Sir says that there are
no ruffians in this family.

I heard him.

Just tell him that I'm still his bother.

Going to jail doesn't sever blood ties.

Also, tell him...

that I'm his brother, not some
employee he can fire!

Why are you here?

Unbelievable!

Aren't you happy to see
your younger brother?

People put their arms around each other
in these moments. Am I right, Ms. Lata?

So, he's here to squeeze
the life out of me?

-So, you're here to squeeze the life...
-He's never cared about us.

Did you ever care about me?

Ms. Lata, please ask him to go away.

Anyway, no one here wants to see
this wretched man's face!

Wretched man!

No one wants to see his face either!

You know, he was born nine months
after our parents got married.

Dev.

-He's the outcome of a broken condom.
-Dev!

Why are you making a scene?

-Who started it?
-I did.

Bloody pothead.
Get lost!

You... get lost!

Get out of my office.

-This is not your office. It's Dad's.
-It's my office.

-His name's out there. It's not yours.
-It's my office. Get out.

-I'm here to see Dad.
-Get out.

-Move! I want to see Dad.
-Get out.

-Get out. Out!
-Hey!

-Get out. Remain seated! My office...
-He's my elder brother and I respect him.

Jay! What are you doing?

Jay! What are you doing?
Is that your office?!

-Stop it...
-Relax, Jay!

-Dev...
-Don't do that!

-What are you doing?!
-It's my office!

-It's my office...
-Hey, Jay!

Jay!

If it weren't for you,
Mom would still be alive today!

I will k*ll you right here, f*ck!
Don't say a word about Mom!

I will k*ll you!
I will finish you off!

Hey!

-Let go of him.
-Jay, you...

Hey!

Jay! Dev!

Hello, Mr. Dev!

What a surprise!

I've had the misfortune...

of seeing your obnoxious face
for the first time in ten years.

Oh, wow! This is where
my nation is headed.

The horrendous things you do
to k*ll time!

Get the f*ck out of here, you assholes!

Get out!

-You sit right there, idiot!
-I'm sitting!

Don't move an inch.

Look at these two... brothers.

You are related by blood,
but you are baying for each other's blood!

Are you in Lakhot to m*rder someone...

with your k*ller attitude?

You were in prison for four years.

What about the other six years?

You should have stayed wherever you were!

What the f*ck happened
that you've returned to Lakhot?

The last time,
it was aggravated as*ault.

And this time?

Tell me, elder brother.

Do you want to press charges
against the Tomar family's scion?

Or will you patch things up with a hug?

Do whatever you want to.

I've got nothing to do with him.

That's your brother talking!

Tell me one thing.

Why did you return to Lakhot?

I will shatter the radiance
in your eyes into smithereens.

You're in Lakhot.

Rajbir Singh's Lakhot.

I will keep an eye on you.

Wanted to meet Dad!

Dumbfuck.

Are you all entertained?

Get back to work!

So, sir...

Let's rope him in, as well.

I salute you, Pallavi Raj.

Your friend...

What's her name?

Vidushi. Vidushi Tomar.

Her criminal brother-in-law
has come to Lakhot.

Ask her why he's here.

Devendra Singh Tomar.

-He's back?
-Oh, man.

So, was I singing a ballad all this while?

Ask her what the purpose of his visit is.

I've been busy, sir.

Busy doing what?
Applying nail polish?

I've been working on
the foreigner's m*rder case, sir.

Don't bother working on it.
Just close it.

The death of a foreign tourist doesn't
make any difference to anyone here.

An unidentified body at that!

Did we get a missing person's report?

Did we?

No, right?

Is someone looking for her?

No! So, that's it.

All these foreigners OD on drugs and die,

while we have to expend our efforts
on their case.

She was a human being, sir.

She was. I agree.

What should I do?

Should I act out of compassion
or carry out my duties?

These are orders from headquarters.

I cannot jeopardize Lakhot's reputation.

What do you think?

Yes, sir.

This is what happens when you hire women.

They infuse emotions into everything.

This is the only available room, sir.

Honeymoon suite. Same rate.

Need anything else?

Cannabis, marijuana...

Meow Meow?

Whatever you want, sir.

Ladies, gents.

Novice, experienced.

I'll let you know.

Sister-in-law, do you recognize me?

Dev!

I didn't know!

When did you arrive?

How long are you here?
You'll stay here, right?

You'll stay for Diwali, right?

Don't just stand there. Get in!

Where's your luggage?

I...

Is that your car?

Where's Dad?

He has stepped out for some work.
He'll be back soon.

When does Jay come home?

I met him this morning.

Didn't he tell you?

We don't get the time to talk these days.

Jay comes home whenever he pleases.

He has been working hard.

Forget about him.
You tell me about yourself.

Where have you been
and what have you been doing?

It's been so long!

Didn't you miss me?

Actually, I...

Well, I missed you.

Why didn't you respond to my letters?

Letters?

You know that I don't have
a knack for writing.

You have really got to stop
underestimating yourself, Dev.

I think Father's home.

Come on!

Greetings, Dad.

Jay told me...

that you caused a ruckus
at the office today.

Were you drunk?

No, Dad.

You can't even tell a convincing lie.

-No, Dad. I really wasn't...
-Look at him.

He has come home after ten years
and he's high.

Dad, I don't know what Jay told you, but...

Let it go. I'm back now...

This is not your house
that you can come and go as you please!

It's our house.

He has been going around tarnishing our
family's reputation through his actions.

For the past six years,
I've been haunted by the fear...

that one night,
I'll receive a call informing me...

that his lifeless body
has been discovered in some sewer!

Father...

What are you saying, Father?
Dev is doing well for himself.

-Did you see his car parked outside...
-Dear...

bring me some ice.

Dev!

Please don't go. You know...

Father is just angry...

Angry?

No, Sister-in-law.

He'll keep spewing venom
against me all his life.

I know...

he loves Jay because
he considers him as his own.

When he sees me,
he is reminded of his dead wife.

God knows whether he ever truly loved her.

I won't spare you next time!

-When will you return the money? Tell me!
-I will...

Scoundrel!

I won't spare you next time!

-as*h*le.
-This is your last warning!

She must be hiding
somewhere in the bushes.

How long will she run from us?

There she is! She's getting away!

Follow me, guys. Come on.

Why didn't you tell me sooner?

When did you get this?

Today...

in the morning.

What took you
so long to tell me?!

Mr. Kairav, I'll take care of it.

No, you won't!
You idiot!

Come here.

Come on.

Come here.

Does it hurt?

No...

I'm fine.

Pick up the phone.

Help me, Mom!

Mom! Help!

Are you enjoying?

Where's your enthusiasm?

-I'm in a bad mood.
-What?

I'm in a bad mood.

Well, then just cheer up!

I'm the Vice President here.

Don't sit here sulking.
What will people think?

I don't care...

what they think.

And if that's a problem for you,
just seek someone for your amusement.

Oh! Do you already have someone?

Stop talking nonsense!

I'm not talking nonsense.

I know what you have been up to.

-What do you know?
-You tell me!

Who is it?

Who is it?!

Mind your business!

Don't dodge the question and scram!

Jay!

Jay!

Jay! Jay, stop!

Jay, stop!

Go die, you...!

Nice car!

Did you have fun
watching the show last night?

It could have been better.

Why?

Couldn't you come inside?

Well, I could.

But I was scared.

Scared?

Dev, I used to be scared...

that I'd stumble upon your dead body
on a shadowy night.

Why does everyone here
imagine me as dead?

You shouldn't have come back, Dev.

What I did, I didn't do it for myself.

Who else did you do it for?

Who else?

The person I did it for
didn't visit me there...

even once.

Right, Sandhya?

There?

Are you ashamed to say the word "prison"?

And I didn't tell you to thrash him
until he was half-dead.

I could have beaten him to death.

For you.

You didn't answer my question, Sandy.

You should leave, Dev.

From here or from Lakhot?

Both.

There's nothing left here for you.

A lot of time has passed, Dev.

Human beings,
who were birthed by Mother Earth,

are now bringing about her ruination.

They are trying to satiate their hunger
by taking away what's rightfully hers.

There is no limit to a human's hunger.

But we have only one Mother Earth.

And today, our mother
is calling out to us for help.

"Come...

save me.

If I don't survive,
neither will humanity."

Humans will end up devouring each other.

All that will remain is dust...

and dirt...

It will be easily blown away
by a gentle breeze.

Today, a deer died.

Tomorrow, our future will die.

Our existence, pride,
and self-respect will turn to dust!

So, raise your voice!

Let's strike back!

WE WILL NEITHER BUDGE NOR BACK DOWN

When Mother Earth cries out...

"Who is my dear son...

my very own...

who will fulfill my debt?"

-We are...
-The Kachdaars!

-We are...
-The Kachdaars!

-We are...
-All hail Kachdaars!

All hail Kachdaars!

All hail Kachdaars!

Doctor, where in Delhi do you practice?

I have a Ph.D.

I have written a thesis on
the social impact of the mining industry.

Well, then...

you should have been in the UN,
an NGO, or some foreign university.

What are you doing here?

I must say, Mr. Vikas, your thinking...

is top-notch.

What do you envision for your future?

What I want...

does not lie with Centre Marbles.

Our request is with the government.

That's right.

But, Mr. Vikas, there is no media here.

There is no press or news reporter here.

The government doesn't give a rat's arse.

It only affects the company.

They believe that we need to...

find a middle ground by
compromising on some things ourselves.

Compromise?

For the first time ever,
someone has cut to the chase.

Give me a number.

Ten million rupees.

Fifteen million rupees.

Don't look at me like that.

Fine, twenty million. I don't have
the permission to go beyond that.

Twenty million rupees is a lot.

I'm sure if you try harder...

you can even aim
for thirty or forty million.

Alright, forty. Let's seal the deal.

Shall we?

Shall I sell it for forty million rupees?

Forty, fifty, sixty, seventy,
eighty, ninety, hundred.

Forgive me.

I can't sell my mother.

Go and talk to his younger
brother, Sunil Mahajan.

Explain the ground situation to him.

That Sunil Mahajan is... God knows
why his a*s is on fire!

Boss, there is no point
in wasting time here.

Perhaps, I'm wasting my time, Dev.

Do one thing.

Find a new job.

I'll find a better replacement.

I'll do it, boss.

f*cking hell!

I'm here to see Mr. Sunil.

I came here yesterday.

-Devendra Singh Tomar.
-Wait here.

Sir, someone is here to see you.

The boss has left.

A while ago.

He left?

Okay. Thank you.

Okay.

f*ck.

Sanju...

Vikas' college isn't that big.

I'm sure there are people
who are willing to talk.

Okay, call me if you find anything.

I'm off to find out what that
Sunil Mahajan has been up to.

Hey, stop!

Hey, you!

Stop right there!

Trying to act smart, m*therf*cker!

-Hey! Stop!
-What the f*ck!

-Stop, you asshat!
-Catch him!

-Get him!
-Stop!

-b*stard!
-Hey!

Hey, biker! Get that man!

Hey, get him!

-Guy on the bike!
-Stop running, f*ck!

-Get him!
-f*ck!

Bloody hell!

-Damn it!
-Where did he go?

-Hey!
-Let go of the bag!

-As if I'll oblige!
-Let go of it!

Hey, not the car!

Not the car, you fool!

Don't take the car! Stop!

You son of a b*tch! Stop!

I have seen your face,
you tall jackass! f*ck...

Damn it!

Hey!
