01x01 - Trial by Fire

[bunniefuu]

What are you saying, Mr. Gupta?

No, we sent you that invoice a month ago.

Madam, when was it?

Are you trying to lose?

I faxed it myself.

- Well, I didn't receive it.
- No.

Forget points, I'm right here!

- We're almost there. Be careful!
- No, I'm really sorry.

- I'm dying here. Come help me!
- Shekhar!

- Now I'm dead. Are you happy?
- sh**t!

- We were almost there!
- Don't blame me.

No, if the payment isn't made by Friday,

we'll have to hold
the delivery of your shipment.

- You want to play?
- Sure.

- Don't chew your necklace.
- Mamma!

It's not possible.

- I'm afraid I don't have a choice.
- Don't trust him, Uncle. He cheats.

- Let me show you what to do.
- Please.

- This is jump, that's sh**t.
- That's sh**t?

- You're saying you didn't get our fax.
- Phone!

- You didn't get our invoice.
- Mom!

- Did I get the power thing?
- Yes, you got it.

Yeah.

Enjoy your power thing.

Jyoti, go see who it is!

- I'll get it!
- Move, Uncle!

- Arjun, Mom is here! Hi.
- Hi

- Go.
- Hi, Shekhar.

- Hi, Anisha aunty.
- You're still not ready?

- Sorry, Aunty.
- Hurry up!

- Sorry, I'm late.
- Mamma, where's my towel?

Same place as always.

- And my swimming bag?
- Next to your towel.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Can you pick them up?
- Sure.

I have an urgent appointment.
I'll finish that...

Yeah, no problem.

- Did you take your inhaler?
- It's next to the cordless.

And listen, the movie should end by 6:00.

- So, I'll drop them by 6.30.
- Yeah, don't worry. Bye.

Mom, we have to go!

- Let's go.
- Bye.

I want to see Border, too!

Gupta's making excuses again.

He said he never received the invoice.

I told him I'd have to hold the shipment.

You did send the invoice? Shekhar?

Wanna play?

You made a big mistake
bringing that thing home.

- Down.
- I know.

- Then do it.
- I am doing it.

- And remember it's only a game.
- Yeah.

Move!

Patience.

- k*ll them!
- I am!

- Go forward!
- I'm blue, you're red!

Where are you going?

Tina's house.

With whose permission?

I told Papa.

Can I?

- sh**t him, will you?
- I'm trying!

Ma, can I go?

Move forward!

- Jump!
- I'm jumping!

I don't care what Papa said.

No movie
unless you finish your homework.

You always do this.

I'm 17 and nobody
listens to me in this house.

Don't worry. A few more years...
then they'll be gone.

Let us through!

Move that car!

- Neelam!
- Move!

Neelam! Get out of the way!

Move! Stop arguing.

Neelam!

Move!

Neelam! Move! Make way!

Move!

Get out of the way!

Let me through!

My kids are in there.

Please! Let me go!
My kids are in there.

Our kids! Our kids are in there!

Please!

Hurry up, boys! Come!

Shekhar!

Bring it down! Down! Down!

Take him. He's the last of them.

...can't get through, sir.

- Where are you taking them?
- AIIMS, Safdarjung.

Which one? AIIMS or Safdarjung?

Arjun! Is my son's name on the list?

- Anisha, where are the kids?
- Anisha!

They're saying everyone's been evacuated.

Do you have your phone?
Your phone, where is it?

- Yes, right here.
- Stay here. If you see them, call me.

Come on!

- Rickshaw!
- Rickshaw!

Rickshaw!

Rickshaw!

Stop! Rickshaw!

- You go to AIIMS. I'll check Safdarjung.
- AIIMS, quickly!

- You go. Go!
- Yes. Call me, Shekhar!

We don't know what's going on.

Madam, stop.

Please let me through. My kids are inside.

We can't let you in.

Please let me inside. My kids. Please!

You need to step back.

You go inside.

Nurse!

Come on, find witnesses.

Ma'am, were you at the fire?

What are you doing? Move along.

- Emergency Ward?
- Down to the right.

- Straight and right?
- Yes.

Emergency Ward? Madam!

Unnati! Ujjwal!

Ma'am, may I help you?

- Ma'am?
- I'm looking for my children.

I am looking for my children.

- My children.
- You can't be in here.

- Are you the police? Please go.
- Look...

Someone will come and help you.
Please stay outside.

Ujjwal!

What does your daughter look like?

Unnati has short hair.

5'6''.

17 years old.

And Ujjwal wears glasses, 5'7''.

There was another boy with them, Arjun.
I don't know how tall.

Around the same height as Ujjwal.

What was she wearing?

Yes, Shekhar?

- Shekhar.
- Neelu?

Yes. Where's Unnati?

What was she wearing?

Yellow top, blue jeans.

Where are they?

I don't know, Neelam.
The nurse thinks maybe... Just wait.

Here?

Please come. Have a look.

Shekhar?

Sir, is that your daughter?

Sir?

It's getting late. We need to go.

Neelam.

Where's her necklace?

It's time.

No. Her necklace. Where is her necklace?

- Someone took it, Shekhar!
- Neelam...

Someone took my daughter's necklace!

Sign here. And here.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Such a terrible tragedy.

I'm so sorry, Neelam.
I can't believe this is happening.

Go home, Anisha.

Be with your husband.

Ujjwal meant the world to Arjun.

Arjun is so upset.

He won't come out of his room.

He's in shock. They were so close.

Arjun?

You didn't know?

I'll just go meet Shekhar.

Check the closet.

Boys...

Where's Jyoti?

I sent her home.
Do you need anything?

Sister?

Water.

With this our national bulletin
comes to an end.

Brother.

Moving onto today's top story from Delhi.

See this. This is the new one.

A government inquiry has begun
in connection with the deadly fire

that broke out at Uphaar Cinema
in South Delhi.

The fire brigade arrived
at the scene 30 minutes later

to begin rescue operations.

The fire is believed to have been caused

by a faulty transformer
installed in the basement.

Most of the victims
were seated in the balcony section.

Many panicked and jumped
from the upper floors.

While the smoke prevented others
from exiting via the stairs

due to low visibility.

Because everything was open.

There's talk of negligence
on the part of the cinema owners.

Prominent Delhi builders and businessmen,
Gopal and Sushil Ansal,

are considered to be
Asia's biggest property developers.

This disaster could not have come
at a worse time for the Ansals,

as they prepare to open
Delhi's first ever mall, The Plaza...

- Get away from there! Move away!
- Neelam!

It's okay.

Come on, let's go.

What's wrong, Neelam?

- Neelam?
- Why don't you go lie down?

Maybe take a bath, wash your hair.

Freshen up.

Ranjit is right.

Neelam?

That poor woman.

Where are the children's documents?

Birth certificates, ration cards,
we need that paperwork.

I've promised Uncle Iyer that
I'll take it to him as soon as possible.

He did everything after dad's death.

Don't worry, little brother.
I'm handling everything.

But I need those documents.

The rest can wait. Okay?

You'll talk to her?

Shekhar?

- The documents?
- Yeah.

You'll get them?

You knew about Arjun?

Why, Shekhar?

They were together.

Why him and not them?

You can't think like that.

Neelam?

Neelu?

Neelam?

Come upstairs now.

Coming?

Oh, Neelam.
I'm so sorry to hear about your kids.

Thank you.

- Do you need anything?
- Sugar.

Neelam. You okay?

Is Anisha here?

Yes. Anisha!

I'm really sorry, I couldn't make it.
Arjun is still recovering, you know.

Why don't you come in?

Neelam? All okay?

What are you doing here?

Gaurav, get the keys. We'll drop her home.

Where's Arjun?

I just wanted to see
whether he's okay or not.

Yes, he's okay.
It'll take some time, for him to recover.

Has he said anything?

No.

About what?

I need to talk to him.

He's asleep right now.

It won't take long.

Neelam, please.

Look, Neelam, he's still under shock.

He hasn't fully recovered.

Trust me, as soon as
he feels a little better,

I'll bring him to you myself. Trust me.

- Anisha, please. Just couple of minutes.
- Neelam, please. He's just a baby.

I'm sorry.

Tell Arjun that
Neelam aunty came to see him.

Yes.

Her necklace was missing.

Unnati didn't have her necklace on.
Someone must have taken it.

Who would do something like that?

Neelam...

Yes, so let's keep this.
This is good. Go ahead.

And now, can you find a shot
which cuts in about The Plaza opening?

Something fancy. Wait, that's strong.
Yes, this one.

This one.

School has just started...

Good morning, Shekhar.

Let's go ahead, then let's see.

- Not now. So just see if you can...
- Sir.

I said five minutes! Tell Mrinalini...

I need a favor, Siddharth.

You all probably haven't
eaten since morning,

so I just got some sandwiches.

I'm Shalini. I'm the neighbor.

Oh, okay.

And here, Neelam wanted some sugar.

All right, I'll give it to her
when she wakes up.

She's been up for hours.

Where is my wife?

But, Siddharth, the newspapers say that
most of the victims were in the balcony.

We'll know more after the investigation.

Siddharth, please help me understand.

If you want, I'll look through
the footage again. If I see anything...

I need to see it.

I need to know what happened to them.

- Mr. Nadeem.
- Okay, sir.

Stop. There.

There, I think it's them.

The person you're calling
is not answering.

Please try later.

She must have said something
about where she's going.

No, she was in a hurry.

Can you rewind that?
Rewind, rewind.

Let's wait,
if she's not back then...

What do you mean, wait?

She leaves without telling anyone
and we just wait?

What else can we do? Besides wait.

We can ask around.
Instead of just sitting here.

Shall we search all of Delhi?

The watchmen must have seen her leave.

- Let's ask him.
- This isn't Patiala, it's Delhi.

- Madhav, please.
- What?

Brother, tell him, why talk about Patiala...

Listen. She must have an address book.

Maybe we'll find something in there?

No.

Let me see that again.

I can't imagine
what you're feeling, Shekhar.

But you aren't alone in this.

Madhav is there. We are there.

For you, for Neelu.

Please don't feel helpless.

Devaki...

When Neelu comes back...

I want you all to leave.

Yeah?

Rewind, please?

Stop there.

Who is this man? I've seen him before.

That's Arora. Uphaar's manager.

Where can I find him?

Anisha. Yes.

Arjun said he needs to see you.

Neelam, please be gentle, yeah?

Ajju... Neelam aunty's here.

Good to see you, Arjun.

How are you feeling?

I know you're mad at me.

That's not true.
Aunty's here to see you, that's it.

Arjun...

Tell me what happened.

I can't, Aunty.

- Yes, you can.
- Neelam...

Just tell me what happened.
You three were together...

I didn't see anything.

I wasn't there.

I couldn't get in, Aunty.

I was late.

Ujjwal said he'd wait for me
by the popcorn machine.

But the film had already started.

I tried to get inside.

But the doors were locked.

I don't know why they locked them.

I even went down to the counter,
but no one was there either.

Anisha said she's okay.

I don't know why I didn't think of it.

It's okay, little brother.
It's not your fault.

It's not hers, either.

There she is!

Neelam!

- Neelam!
- Neelam!

Where's she going?

Shekhar, I don't know where she's going.

- I said we'd bring her home. But she left!
- Follow her.

81C? Where is 81C?

Yes, straight ahead.

81C?

There's the car.

Shekhar! Shekhar, wait for me!

Where is Arora's house?

He lives here. Why?

- Arora?
- What do you want?

- Could you please call him? Please.
- He's not at home.

- He's not here.
- It's very important.

- He's not at home.
- Two minutes. Arora!

- He must be inside. Arora!
- He's not here. Please go.

- He's not here.
- He's inside.

I know what you did, Arora!

- Arora!
- Please leave. Or I'll call the police.

Call the police. Arora!

Go away! What are you saying?

Do you know what your husband did?

- He didn't do anything.
- Call him.

- He didn't do anything.
- Then let me speak with him. Call him!

- Just leave.
- Call him. Right now!

- He's not to blame! Please.
- I know he's here.

- You have no clue what he's done.
- He hasn't done anything. Believe me.

- He's done nothing. Please leave.
- Arora!

Come inside, children. Quickly.

The doors were locked, Shekhar.

They trapped our children inside.

The b*stards locked the doors.

They let them suffocate.

My husband didn't do anything wrong.

He just does what he's told.

He didn't do anything!

- Just give me the keys!
- Shekhar, you can't...

- You can't go there alone.
- I can.

- What about Neelam?
- Take her home!

She's not well.

Then you take care of her.
Give me the keys!

Don't behave like a kid.

I can behave like how I want to.
Just give me the keys.

Take it.

- Good afternoon, sir.
- I need to see the Ansals.

- Do you have an appointment?
- No.

Sir, you can't meet them
without an appointment.

Please leave your name and number here.

Sir...

Gopal and Sushil Ansal's office?

It's that way. Who are you?

Hey, listen, where are you going?
Security, who is this?

Sir! Sir, let's go outside.

Don't touch me!
I have to see them.

Sir, please come.

I just want to ask them a question!

- Sir, you don't have permission.
- Come, please.

Gopal Ansal!

- Okay, let's go!
- Sushil Ansal!

- Be quiet!
- Let me go!

- Don't make a scene. Come!
- The doors were locked, did you know?

- Let's go, now.
- The doors were locked!

- Let go of me!
- Shut up!

The doors were locked!

Sir!

The doors were locked from outside!

Shekhar.

Shekhar.

Please come out.

Delhi's first ultra-luxury shopping mall.

under one roof.
