Dharini.
Dharini, run.
Run.
Dharini.
Run.
Hey!
I see.
On my way!
Ranjan, get the cars ready!
Come on. Hurry up!
Don't worry, sir.
We will not let her escape.
We are on our way!
Stop. Stop.
Back. Back.
Are you crazy?
Don't you know how to drive?
Back up the car.
Get down. Down.
Dharini! It's not safe here.
What do you mean?
Raghurajpur! Panigrahi's safe house.
I want to meet Kadey.
Raghurajpur! You go.
I will distract the police. You go.
Make him sit there.
A look out has been issued
by the police against Priya das,
Swatantra Das' daughter.
She is accused of being a Naxal.
Some private security
guards have also been attacked.
They identified her
and informed the police.
Priya Das, who was appealing
to the Naxals a few days ago
has turned out to be one of them.
Minister sir!
- Please, sir, you cannot go inside.
- Come out, sir! Come out.
- Where is Priya?
- Let him in.
What have you done with Priya?
Calm down. Calm down, Mr. Secretary.
Don't forget you are an IAS officer.
You have a very powerful
position in the administration.
Does it suit you to
make a scene like this?
Where is Priya, Sir?
Was I being funny earlier?
I won't take this lightly,
I am telling you.
Your anger will make things worse.
And if things steer out of control,
you'll lose your job and reputation.
So, control yourself.
For this position I
have only cleared an exam.
I don't want it.
But, you were elected by the people.
You had to win the trust of
the Tribals to be here. Didn't you?
How do you even sleep at night?
- Sir, there was a call.
- Who was it?
- Priya madam.
- Let's go.
Dhruv.
Priya.
Suresh! Open the car door.
- Get some water.
- Yes, sir.
Sir, water.
Have some water.
- Go get a doctor.
- Yes, sir.
Dhruv, what place is this?
It's safe. Don't worry.
I have to meet Beatrice.
Priya, not now.
Did you find them?
Sir, we have scanned the entire area.
He didn't come home.
Then why the f*ck are you calling me?
Just find her.
Right, we'll find them.
Yes.
Wait.
Wait.
It's almost done.
Wait.
I have to go.
You need to sleep, Priya.
You need to sleep.
Wait.
How are you feeling?
I've to go meet Beatrice.
Are you mad?
Stay put. You've to eat something. Wait.
Dhruv.
Dutta Mines is a big secret.
Investments. Shell companies.
Politicians, Policemen, administration...
The entire investment has
come from foreign shell companies.
You have learned a lot in just a few days!
I was wrong about you.
No, Dhruv.
I was wrong about you!
You helped Dad from getting out of jail.
without letting him know about it.
Dad would have been alive,
if I had called you from London.
What happened between the two of you?
I let him down.
He lost faith in me.
By the time I got hold of the truth,
I got transferred from Keonjhar.
And when I questioned,
they blamed everything on me,
and got me suspended.
I didn't know how to
face myself anymore, so...
I can only see blood
on my bed every night.
Professor Das was thrown in jail.
They made fake IDs for
the entire Bondria tribe.
and got my approval on the mining license.
I was the District Magistrate there,
I had to do it. I had no choice.
He thought I was part of it all.
Dad always wanted
me to be away from his world.
You always kept me far.
I did.
But you are forgetting,
Without any former training, or support,
you went and became a gold medalist,
in London School of Economics.
You can do anything, Priya.
You really can.
Raghurajpur will be safe for her.
In the meantime,
It's better we stay here in Bhubaneswar.
What about food?
How will we deliver food in the forest?
Take care, Ram.
Madam...
Priya! I saw the news.
Thank God you're okay!
They k*lled your father and Basu for this?
They knew it wasn't a bauxite mine.
Do you know what Jengaburu means?
Red mountain.
Green on the outside,
but when you dig in, red...
like blood.
We believe the rocks of
Jengaburu have life in them.
"Development or a Billion-dollar curse?"
Are Mr. Banerjee's meetings not over yet?
No, sir.
When will he show me the mines?
Hey... come here.
This place. Where is it?
Get lost.
Sir, please mind your
own business. Please.
Relax, I was just talking to him.
Please.
Doctor. Check the reports again.
I am sure they have mixed
up my reports with someone else's
My Jhumri had no symptoms
Yet her reports showed Dengue.
I think to sell their medicines and tests
These people can stoop to any limit.
Keep an eye on your staff as well.
Sir, I personally checked your
CT scans and blood report.
The reports are correct.
You have third-stage lung cancer.
If there is disease, there is also a cure.
Don't worry.
Once upon a time, there was
a village surrounded by a dense forest.
Through which flowed the
majestic Hathidhara river...
Whenever villagers needed food,
the forest provided them with every kind.
One day, a couple went
to hunt for food for its people.
Little did they know that a tiger
was following them.
When they saw the tiger,
they ran and climbed a tree.
Climbing on top, they found themselves
surrounded with big fruits.
So they waited...
Once the tiger left, they climbed down
and walked back home with those fruits...
"In this life, joy and sorrow
both come turn by turn"
"Just like flowers,
we bloom and wither away"
"Who is mine in this world?
Let me surrender to my God"
Murdering people will not solve anything.
What are you guys doing?
We have underestimated Priya.
Just tell Mr. Rao that
I will give him a bigger mine than this.
I mean this land is not yielding any gold,
for which you are shedding so much blood.
Sir, has Rao Sir ever disappointed you?
No.
He's never disappointed me.
But I have the right to know
what you are mining from there.
I am the Mining Minister.
You understand?
Sir...
We are all here to talk about a problem.
Let's find a solution.
Yes sir...
He said "solution".
Sir, section 144 has
been applied in Keonjhar.
We have also issued sh**t-at-sight orders.
My team is looking for Dr.
Panigrahi as well.
Only the Doctor can lead us to the Naxals.
Mr. Mahanta
This year you are
definitely getting a medal,
which you missed three years ago.
Choose your words carefully.
These Naxals, bloodshed...
This narrative won't last too long.
Sir.
Srini.
Anyhow you have to get
the samples back to the mines.
Just find out where the samples could be.
Sir, they will definitely
take the sample for testing.
There are only two places
where it can be tested.
Excuse me.
Are you the lab assistant?
Do I look like a lab assistant to you?
I am a PhD student.
I can see stones.
I can see its components.
Exact percentage.
Whether it is copper,
monazite, or iron ore.
Aditya, are you coming for lunch?
Okay. I'll be there.
PhD at such a young age.
I am the youngest PhD holder,
in the history of the whole university.
Wow.
Beatrice, I think he's just
the right person we're looking for.
Meet Beatrice.
She has come here from Colorado.
She is doing a research project
and I am helping her with that.
She also helped me
with a foreign fellowship.
She is looking to have more people.
Yes. Tell me, how can I help you?
I am doing research in the Bulgar area.
Specifically on rocks formed
from pahoehoe lava.
I would love some help from local
petrologists who know more about them.
She has got some rock samples from Bulgar.
They need to be tested in a lab.
It's time-bound but well-paid.
Do you have anyone in mind?
Yes. Me.
It's very easy.
I will check it in the lab.
Great.
Thank you so much, Aditya.
Thank you.
Bye.
Come on. Surround them from all the sides.
Tobu! Why do you take so much risk?
As long as Dharini lives, we live
Nothing else matters
Come to your senses.
Neither can she fight them. Nor can we.
Hey you...
Stupid Raghu! sent an oldie for the job.
Will you deliver the
ration properly to the stores?
Hurry up.
This time we have arranged
a huge stock of ration.
Don't worry. Go back.
We will meet you in the forest.
Hey, stop that truck!
Stop the truck.
Search.
Where are you heading?
Keonjhar, sir.
Show me your licence.
Check the truck.
Leave it.
Let it go.
Lata, ask him to stop.
Hey, Brother...
I have to pee. Please stop the truck..
I cannot stop. Already running late.
Please, I cannot control it. Stop here.
I will also pee.
Let's go. Hurry up!
Leave me.
Lift it. Fast.
- Hold it. Hurry up!
- Jagga, Tobu C'mon!
I've never seen such highly
secured mines in my life.
You are right.
They are upto something.
You didn't get access, did you?
No.
Another weird part.
There is a massive power transformer here.
And... mines don't usually have
power transformers of such capacity.
Sir! Let's go.
Come on.
Sir is calling you inside.
Thank you.
So sorry to keep you waiting...
Mr. Kumar, isn't it?
Your aluminium factory is shut down.
But your electricity
consumption is still high.
Why don't we leave that aside for sometime
First tell me,
what would you like to drink?
Some chilled champagne, maybe?
Mr. Banerjee,
once the government shut down your mines,
Then you'll have all the time
in the world to enjoy your champagne.
When are you giving
me access to the mines?
No need to feel offended.
Tomorrow morning.
- Srinivas.
- Yes.
This auditor is hard to persuade.
We'll have to show him the mine.
I'll tell Ojas.
No, no, no, I don't want him.
You.
You will give this auditor
a guided tour. Okay.
Hi, Miss Beatrice.
I couldn't find anything
in the rock samples yet.
I will need more time for testing.
- Bye.
- Oh, damn.
I knew it.
EdMac Technology is also in this database
Now what is this database?
Banks and tax havens exchange
information anonymously,
to help each other.
Since we move a lot of money,
we have a key.
Priya, are you serious?
What the hell? No, no.
I think Dutta Mines has got into
your workplace as well.
How can a company in
Bhubaneswar have so much power?
It's okay.
We'll find another way.
No.
We need to follow the money.
Money always leads to facts.
I need to make a call.
Let's have you make it from...
Morocco.
Hello, Nazneen. It's Priya.
Oh my God. Priya.
Where have you been? Are you okay?
Stay there.
I'll call you back from another phone.
- Priya.
- Hi, Naz.
Oh my God.
Where are you?
Wait, are you involved
in something ill*gal?
No, no.
Listen, I need your login details.
What do you need my login details for?
I'll explain later.
But right now, I need access
to the international database.
But my account doesn't
have access to that.
I know.
But I'll use your account
to get to Andrews.
Okay.
Tell me what you need.
Yes, I am here.
Okay.
Hi, Nazneen. This is Beatrice.
Now listen to me very carefully.
You need to copy the files
I had shared with you on Andrew's laptop.
Okay.
I am just downloading the file.
Great. That's done.
You can log out now. Thank you.
f*ck.
EdMac routes money from Korea,
Malaysia, and Myanmar.
And then it is coming to Odisha.
And the leftover... Goes to London.
How much?
Not a small amount.
About a billion annually
for the last three years.
That should raise flags.
Not when a lot of money moves.
What is it?
Well, it looks like some
Korean funds have been
Channelled to London about a minute ago
And it's big.
By the looks of it,
North Korea is buying something
really big from Dutta Mines.
Let me send these documents to Peter.
He might be able to connect the dots.
How long will it take?
Just a moment, sir.
Sir.
Sir this... This is her.
This is her.
Zoom in.
Some more.
Is this from the ATM?
Yes, sir.
Why does this mine
have such high security?
It's a highly Naxal affected area,
Mr. Puneet.
You can add that to
your audit report, as well.
Can you stop?
I need to pee.
The number you have
dialled is presently...
Beatrice.
Why did you call me here?
I thought we were
meeting at a coffee shop?
Aditya, when do you think
you could give us the results?
In a couple of days.
One or two days, ma'am.
Carry on -Yes?
This girl who stays here.
Only my students live here.
Don't make me ask again.
Beatrice's cottage?
Over there.
That...
Where did you find this rock from?
Why?
There's a presence
of these strange radicals,
which is not common in Odisha.
Can you give us the
results really quickly?
I just need some more reagents.
Here.
I think you may need this.
Thank you, Beatrice.
Appreciate it.
Bye.
Bye, Beatrice.
Sir.
Good.
Global surveillance.
Sir, she hacked deep into the server.
Clean it.
Sir. This looks like a game.
She seems to be communicating
through this.
Check who is on the
other side of the game.
Immediately trace their location.
Hi, Beatrice.
I haven't got a call scheduled.
Is everything okay?
Sir, the base looks like London.
Catch them.
Beatrice?
f*ck!
Calm.
Please be calm.
Be calm.
Here. Please have it.
Real mango.
You will enjoy it. Here.
Priya.
Take it.
Take it.
Don't be stupid, Priya.
Das, I understand.
But I never expected this from you.
This is what you do in London, don't you?
Help developing markets develop further.
Invest money where it yields 1% more.
Why?
Development moves like life.
All the time in one direction.
Forward.
You can't stop it, even if you try.
I don't k*ll people at work.
You are right.
You outsource it.
You only use your laptops and phones.
But it's people like me
who mine the silicon for it.
Development always comes at a price.
Priya, run.
Another Bike is coming!
Catch her from the other side.
Beatrice.
- Priya, you run.
- What? No.
- I'll distract them.
- Beatrice, no.
You have to go and find Peter! Go!
Go!
Hey! She is there! Come!
Get the car. Come on.
Let's go.
Mister. Hurry up.
Do you want to get me fired?
Just 30 minutes. Please.
