[bunniefuu]

Babu!

Babu! Babu!

Babu?

Babu…

Babu, wake up!

Babu…

Why? Why have you brought me here?

Is he conscious? Good.

One minute.

So how did this happen?

Car.

I got hit by a car, doctor.

But your friend said

you got into a fight.

Right, first this car guy rammed into me,

then he got down
and started a fight.

I'm feeling fine now.
We're leaving.

It'll take some time
for the X-ray report to come. Lie down.

Doctor, the child…

Coming.

Hospital?

Might as well have taken me
straight to jail.

What else would I have done?

I was scared, man.

I thought you were done for.

Hey!

You love me so much?

Enough now. Save some tears
for my funeral, too.

Are you crazy?

-Hey, stop.
-Don't turn around.

Hey!

Where are you running off to?

I was looking for both of you.

Car accident case, right?

Who will lodge the complaint?

Where did this happen?

Excuse me?

The accident!

Please let us go, sir.

We're poor men, sir.

As it is, I'm badly injured.

How will I manage police station rounds?

Tell me your name.

Pyare.

He is Pyare Kumar.

And I am Mohan Kumar.

Address?

12, Fatehpur Haveli Road, Meena Bazar,

behind Jama Masjid.

Ticket…

Sonipat! Panipat!
Chandigarh!

Sonipat! Panipat!
Chandigarh!

Ticket! Ticket!

Sonipat, Sonipat!

Panipat! Panipat! Sonipat!
Chandigarh, Chandigarh…

Take this.

Babu, police!

-Look at me. Look at me!
-Babu…

Look at me!

Nothing will happen to us.

Go to your village, work as a farmer…

and lie low for some time.

I'll need time to figure out
what to do next.

And where will you hide, Babu?

Jimmy…

With Jimmy.

22464, remember this number.

If you start sh1tting bricks,
call me. Okay?

-22464.
-22464.

-And listen…
-22464…

Keep this.

Why, Babu?

They're hers…

-Keep it.
-I don't want them.

Keep them, just in case.

Just keep them.

You're not angry with me, right?

Bye, b*stard.

Ticket, ticket, ticket…

Ticket, ticket…

Laxman, Sanjeev, Vinod, and Nisar,

come to my cabin right now.

Look, Rajjo and Babu.

The suspected K*llers in the Arora case.

Who are these people?

Where have they come from?

What did they work as?

Are they in Delhi now? No one knows.

Any little piece of information about them

might prove useful in this case.

Our job isn't only to print headlines.

We must present this case
as a social study.

Understand?

Get to work.

Go.

Why have you come here, Rajjo?

Uncle!

How's the film sh**t going?

Film sh**t?

Don't you see my condition?

It's thanks to the film sh**t.

Be careful.

Oh…

My sister-in-law Rajjo
has blessed us with her presence!

Brother-in-law, greetings.

Did your dancer friends
kick your butt out?

Or are you here because you missed me?

You're home late today.

-Should I make roti for you?
-No.

Make rotis for him.

You don't need to worry
about my dinner.

I don't want to disturb you sisters
while you're gossiping.

He's taken leave from work
to be here for Rakhi.

I see.

So you've finally remembered
your duties as a brother!

He's injured as well.

I've asked him to stay for a few days.

Go on, tie him a rakhi.

He may not be able to protect himself,

but he will definitely protect you.

Bloody c*ck!

It's only for a couple of days.

Where else can he go?

How dare you let that scoundrel in
without my permission?

Please don't get angry!

And who are you to tell me that?

No! Let go…

You haven't been
serviced in a long time!

That's why you're
forgetting your place!

Both brother and sister
need to be thrashed to let it sink in.

I'm surrounded by a bunch
of bloody leeches!

Jai Hind, sir.

ASI Ahlawat, sir.

-This is the village, sir.
-I see.

Sir, we've received a tip…
and have our eye on a particular house.

This way, sir.

-This man.
-This one?

Yes, sir.

-Sir.
-Chandan?

Chandan…

-Who is it?
-It's me…

Wait. Stop!

-Is your name Chandan?
-Yes, sir.

Is Rajjo your brother-in-law?

Yes. Why, what's wrong?

-This officer is here from Delhi.
-Okay.

-He's looking for Rajjo.
-I see.

So tell me, where have you hidden
your brother-in-law?

Come on.

Sir, he had come here…

And?

He disappeared last night?

Disappeared?
Or did you send him away?

Sir…

Father is telling the truth, sir.

Uncle isn't here.

Do you have a photograph of him?

Uncle came here three days ago, sir.

Said he got injured at a film sh**t
in Bombay.

Rajjo might have fled back to Bombay…

How did you get hurt, child?

He was escaping on a moped,

and I tried to stop him.

So he hit me on my face, sir.

Sir, I'll arrange police checkpoints
along the exits.

Okay. Has Rajjo mentioned
someone named Babu?

Have you seen him? This man.

No?

-Have you?
-Who is he, sir?

Rajjo's photo.

How did you get hurt?

I… slipped near the well.

What has Rajjo done, sir?

Your brother committed a m*rder
and fled.

m*rder?

Do you have any idea
what's happening in Delhi?

There, your brother's a hero now!

But, sir…

that guy is a total wimp.

He can't even swat a fly,

let alone commit m*rder.

Rajjo has always hidden behind me.

Everyone would tease him
by calling him a c*ck.

He really did turn out
to be a c*ck, sir.

He can go to any lengths to save himself.

Any lengths…

Sir…

Sir.

Please listen to me, sir.

He took my moped.
Please look into it.

Next time you hit your wife
or your daughter,

I'll whip your butt so hard,
you won't be able to wipe after you sh*t!

Go!

Close your fist.

You have a fracture, mister.

Uncle does action roles in films, doctor.

He keeps getting fractures.

He is a strong guy.

A superhero?

Shut up.

Stop laughing!

Bindi.

Oh, Bindi dear.

See, the weather Gods are also upset.

Come on, give me a smile, Bindi.

Eat some…

Have some chutney.

Careful, it's hot.

Tasty, isn't it?

The ones sold at
movie halls are tastier.

-Really?
-When I manage to save some change,

I go to watch films.

But please…

don't tell Father, he'll skin me alive
if he finds out.

Me? Tell your father?
No way.

You're just like your mother,

as pretty

and as much of a liar.

m*rder OF ARORA CHILDREN
MANHUNT ON FOR TWO SUSPECTS

Uncle, what's wrong?

Too spicy?

Bindi, I just remembered
I have some important work.

I'll be right back.

Hello?

Hello, Babu?

Have you seen the newspaper, bro?

Those kids… the police--

Come on, ask me how I'm doing first,
Rajjo darling.

Are you serious?

Babu, every minute I'm scared
the cops will come and nab me!

All newspapers carry stories of
what happened that night.

I'm aware of that.

Tell me something new.

Babu, I really want to meet you.

As it is, I have this hanging
over my head,

on top of that, my brother-in-law…

Just stay put wherever you're hiding.

Give me some time.

-Another thing…
-What?

Find a nice tailor
who will stitch up your busted butt!

I'll hang up now, bye.

Mister…

Sir.

Right now, we are here.

This road leads to Meerut,

and this road leads to Delhi.

So, which is the nearest highway, Ahlawat?

Sir, you can call this a highway
if you want, but it's just a broken road.

He won't be able
to get out of here easily.

If it were that easy to nab them,
we wouldn't be here.

-Do one thing.
-Yes.

Take your team and head toward Meerut.

-We'll search the other side.
-Okay.

Okay, sir.

Let's go.

Seen him?

This man. See the photo.

Uncle.

Uncle!

Uncle!

What is it?

Are you really leaving for Bombay
in the morning?

Take me with you.

I want to be an actor.

Want to be what?

An actor.

Uncle, I'm not joking.

I really want to be an actor.

See this.

See…

I even have my photos. See.

Don't I look like a star?

Don't I? See…

This one too.

I'm wearing a scarf in this one.

I went to the photo shop in the market

and got these taken secretly.

Look at this one.

Have you lost your mind?

What do you think you'll do there?

Your father will k*ll us both.

Want to be an actor!

Uncle, you call this living?

I can't even breathe in peace here.

And what's the point of living
if you have to crush your dreams?

Bindi,

forget about all this.

See what I've got for you.

I bought them from a famous jeweler
in Bombay.

Take it.

Aren't they pretty?

-I don't want gold earrings.
-But they're so pretty.

Please just take me to Bombay.

Will you take me? Will you?

I'll always take good care of you.

Will you take me?

You'll take care of me?

-Yes.
-What else will you do?

I'll do all your housework.

I'll make hot, round rotis for you.

And when I start working in films,

I'll give you all the money I earn.

Tell me.

Will you take me?

Uncle, will you?

Will you do as I say?

Yes, I'll do whatever you ask me to.

I promise.

See, I'll even wear these earrings
you've brought.

Don't I look pretty?

So? Will you take me?

-You're looking so pretty…
-Uncle?

You'll take me, won't you?

Tell me.

What else are you willing to do?

What else are you willing to do
to be an actor?

-Uncle…
-Tell me.

-Uncle, what's wrong with you?
-Will you do as I say?

-Uncle… I'm getting hurt.
-Tell me.

What are you doing?

Uncle.

Want to be an actor?

Want to be an actor?! Huh?

After all, you're just like your mother.

She was a wild one
back in the day.

Want to wear the earrings!

-Uncle, I'm getting hurt.
-Want to wear earrings?

Have you seen your face in the mirror?

You won't even get a maid's job
in Bombay!

Bloody sex worker.

Get lost!

SI Jayprakash!

SI Jayprakash!

SI Jayprakash. Over.

Rajjo's moped was found
near the Raajkunwar food stall

on the Delhi highway.

I'm on my way there.
You should come too. Over.

We're on our way, Ahlawat. Over.

Stop, stop…

Sir, that's Rajjo's moped.

Go in. Go in.

-What are you waiting for? Hurry up.
-He shouldn't escape!

Stay here.

Have you seen this man?

Search over there.

He isn't here, sir.

I'm sorry, JP sir.

Catching the k*ller would've
made us very happy, but…

You've been of great help, Ahlawat.

Thank you.

Don't embarrass me, sir.

No one in Sonipat is like that, sir.

People here are simple folk.

But there's always going
to be one rotten apple.

I'll take your leave…

Okay, sir.

Drive carefully.

Doomsday is upon us, Mr. Hajra.

The people are furious.

We're also under pressure
from the Prime Minister's office.

-Do something about it.
-I'm trying my best, sir.

All the teams are on it,
24 hours a day.

And I'm supervising
the entire investigation myself.

I'm being patient only because
you're handling it yourself.

I've heard you've put a cook's son
in charge of the case.

It's not like that.
He's a capable officer, sir.

Very hard working.

He has made good headway in the case--

Look, Mr. Hajra…

An ironsmith's expertise
lies in working with iron.

And a cook's expertise lies in cooking.

Even the best pair of shoes

looks foolish when worn on your head!

Sir, a few more days--

Appoint a capable
and experienced officer to this case.

And solve it as soon as possible.

Yes, sir.

Namaste, Mr. Arora.

I'm here to deliver this box.

It contains the children's belongings.

Now that they've been
thoroughly examined…

Please take a look.

There's a list of all the items inside.

You…

If you need any help…

I'll take your leave. Namaste.

Your trunk call to Bombay is connected.
You can speak now.

Hello, Nisar?

Hello. Yes, Manisha.

Have you found out anything?

Write down the number
of my local contact.

-6394--
-One minute.

-Yes.
-639458.

She has some information
on Rajjo and Babu.

Are you sure?

Wait, sir…

SI Jayprakash.
I need to meet SP sir urgently.

He's in a meeting right now.

Please have a seat.

Inspector Chauhan.

SP sir has asked me to meet him.

Chauhan sir? Please wait a minute.

Chauhan sir…

SI Jayprakash.

Oh,

looks like you're having
an interesting day.

Something like that.

Mr. Hajra had told me about you.

Everyone knows who you are, sir.

I've looked at the case files.

You've done a good job till now.

I've already told him that
I will investigate this case,

but you must assist me.

But I have a small request.

Yes, sir?

I want to taste the mutton curry
that your father is famous for.

Can I give you some advice?

High-profile cases like these
often need more work on diplomacy

than on investigation.

Experience teaches us.

It'll be fine.

Sir…

I'll understand it eventually.

So I'll see you at work tomorrow morning,
SI Jayprakash?

Yes, sir. Of course.

-Jai Hind.
-Jai Hind.

-Yes?
-Jayprakash?

I'm Nisar… his friend.

I'm here to give him a file.

And this is for you…
a chicken dish I've prepared.

For me?

Thank you so much.

You've come at the right time.

I'm fed up with eating
all that bland food.

Please come in.

Are you feeling better now?
JP had mentioned…

I'm absolutely fine now, madam.
It was nothing major.

Jayprakash will be home soon.

I should leave now.

Please give this to him.
It's regarding his work.

What do you do?

I'm a reporter… Dilli Nama.

I see.

Actually, if JP sees me here…

I understand.

Policemen and reporters have always
had a rough relationship.

Honestly, the pressure of the case

has made my son a bit unhinged.

This smells delicious.

But…

to do anything good,
one has to struggle.

Now this is the kind of struggle I like!

Please have a seat.

Come.

Hi.

I'd brought some chicken curry for Uncle.

You're not supposed to eat spicy food.

This is just a doctor's advice,
not Mountbatten's order!

Please sit.

Are you okay?

Don't you see it on my face?

I'm thrilled to bits.

I'm not here to fight with you.

I know.

You're here to get a scoop
for your newspaper.

You probably didn't get an update
at the police station,

that's why you've come here.

Water?

You?

Nisar, I don't have
any sensational update for you.

Inspector Chauhan
is heading this case now,

so you should go
to his office instead.

Why are you taking out
your anger on me?

And since you're such a hotshot,

can't you separate your personal life
from your professional life?

I can't. I learned it from you.

Don't blame me for your mistakes.

I'm also under pressure.

Today, I'm not here as a journalist,
but as your--

Today, after I saw Rajjo
and Babu's sketches,

I was feeling upset all day.

I wanted to talk to you…

I wanted to check
if you are okay or not.

And here you are…

Yes.

Here I am.

I'd come to give this to you.

Bombay. Another child was m*rder*d.

And the same two names…

Rajjo and Babu.

I was on my way to show this
to my editor.

Thought I'd show it to you first.

In case it helps you find them.

And if you manage to calm down,

try to remember that
we have worked together before.

Do you want me to have
a word with SP sir?

You could.

Let's send some mutton curry for SP sir.

If not by competence,

the mutton curry might help me
get the case back.

Lower the flame.

Jayprakash, where I grew up,

serving someone food we cooked
ourselves was a big battle.

Now, people crave this very taste,

and that in its own way is a victory.

And what change did this victory bring?

Not everyone is born with a sword
in their hand, son.

I got a ladle…

and I turned that into my strength.

What your weapon is…

is something you must discover
on your own.

One second. I'll see.

Sir.

Hello, Javed. Please come in.

SI Gupte from Bombay had called.

He has already called twice.

He has news of Rajjo and Babu.

Six days ago, a child was--

m*rder*d by them,
and then they fled. I know.

Sir, Gupte sir will call any minute now.

He says he has some big news
and that he'll only speak with you.

Let's quickly go, sir.

Gupte sir is on the line.

SI Jayprakash speaking, Gupte sir.

SI Gajanan Gupte, sir.

Sir, last night, a
man and his wife

-were attacked here in Bombay.
-And?

When I showed the couple the sketches
you sent, they recognized the man.

Recognized whom?

Babu.

He's back in Bombay, sir.

Are you sure?

100%, sir.

We've already issued an alert
in the city.

You should come to Bombay right away.

Thank you.

Thank you, Gupte sir.

Babu was spotted in Bombay yesterday.

If Babu is in Bombay,

Rajjo will also be
somewhere close by, sir.

Chauhan sir is in charge of the case now.

And in order for me to go to Bombay,
I'll have to file a request with SP sir

and get his approval first.

If SP sir has already made up his mind,

there's no point in all this, sir.

We'll have to find our own weapons.

When is the next train to Bombay?

Mishra ji?

Today is Wednesday.

At 9:45 p.m., sir.

-We can make it.
-Get the car quickly, Javed.

You go buy the tickets.

I'll get your luggage and meet you
at the station platform.

By the time Chauhan sir
understands the case,

you'll already be back.

Mona.

Mona, please…

Mona!
