"I have chosen a precious bead

From this necklace of my dreams"

"But now I stand afraid

Did I make the right choice?"

"I see these tiny wings growing on me"

"The heart yearns to fly!"

"The wind blows again"

"The anxiety plays its part too"

"But my belief stands tall"

"I will have a future of my dreams!"

"If the road doesn’t exist"

"I shall pave my

own and walk ahead"

"If they pull me back"

"I’ll anchor my feet hard and then"

"I shall set off to fly"

"I shall set off to fly!"

"I shall set off to fly"

"I shall set off to fly!"

"I have emptied my hands off

This heavy box of suffering"

"Now I walk holding

hands of the cool breeze"

"I broke open against the mountains"

"The heavy shackles of the past"

Where'd you get the photo?

- I

- Who gave it to you?

I just got it from her computer.

You're fond of uploading

her obscene pictures, right?

- I didn't do anything.

- You're fond of it, right?

'You're fond of it, right?'

'I didn't do anything.'

'I am innocent.'

'What do you think?'

'We will believe

whatever you say?'

'I didn't do anything.

- Speak!'

Sir

Sir, hacking a system

is not her cup of tea.

Let's release her.

Of the 28 cases, only two acid attack

cases have been resolved so far.

Let her probe continue,

who knows she may blurt something.

Okay, sir.

Is this what you do in college?

I didn't do anything.

Let me go.

You're posting obscene photos!

I didn't do anything.

Is this why your parents

sent you to college?

I didn't do anything.

Mr. Yadav

Mr. Yadav.

'Sir.'

Parul and Ashish

both received emails regarding

unusual activities on their accounts

on different days,

but with the same IP Address.

Go to the cyber cafe,

make a complete

copy of their register.

Go now.

'I didn't do anything.'

Okay.

Here.

Do you want more?

Tell me.

Why did you upload her photo

on the website?

Sir, she used to treat us

like her servants.

She gave me her used item.

'It's not used, but an offering.'

'I don't want Ashish, you keep him.'

I was angry, sir.

Angry.

And you sought revenge.

Why did you log in to

the website yesterday?

Sir, there are boys out there

who want to talk to me.

They write,

'Miss you, love you.'

They compliment me, sir.

They want to meet me.

Sir, it feels nice

when boys talk to me.

But there's a limit.

Right?

- Sir

- Found anything?

Three people were

in the cafe at that time,

but none of them were

the previous four suspects.

He isn't even using

his real ID.

Ravi, what's the update?

Parul's email ID was hacked,

and so was Ashish's.

An email was sent to Rashmi

from Ashish's hacked account,

requesting a meeting.

Rashmi's identity is being

used only to trap Ashish.

I knew it.

But whoever did it,

knew the whereabouts

of Parul, Rashmi, and Ashish.

It's not necessary, sir.

Checking one's email will

get you their whereabouts.

Sir, you said only two

acid attack cases out of 28

have been resolved so far.

How were they solved?

I nabbed one!

Move aside!

Yes. Take all the limelight.

The boy was given

to him on a plate.

He went to throw acid,

but it exploded.

He dropped the canister

slipping some on

himself and the girl.

He was arrested there.

Sir, exactly my point.

In order to prevent this mistake,

they might have come

to practice on Rashmi.

- Practice?

- Yes.

Is an Acid Attack competition

being held in Macmohan Ganj?

Sir, I'll be right back.

Payal, where did you get

the poem's photocopy from?

- 'Sir, from Ali Cyber.'

- I see.

Did Parul ever go there

to get photocopies?

'Yes, sir.

It's near the coaching center.'

Okay.

Mr. Yadav

you got this xerox

from Ali Cyber Cafe?

Yes, sir.

Search this list for any names

of the 28 acid victims.

Okay, sir.

But why, sir?

I won't be able

to explain it properly, however

there's surely some connection

between this issue

and the cyber cafe.

- Okay, sir.

- No!

- Give Gyan this task.

- Sir

Take Yadav and meet Nitin Seth.

Nitin Seth?

Yes. It's the second

case that was solved.

There is a man named Nitin

Seth who threw acid on his sister.

Later, he surrendered himself to the

police station when he felt guilty.

The rascal is

currently out on bail.

His dad is a lawyer.

He is also studying law

in some degree college.

He found out about

his sister's affair.

lost control

and threw it.

He ruined his sister's life.

Sir, can I ask you a

personal question?

Have you ever been

betrayed by a girl?

Yes.

Didn't you get angry?

I did. A bit.

Then what did you do?

I

I

What did you do?

Any reaction?

Mr. Yadav.

You're here! Sit.

Can you shut that off?

Hey, Shambu!

Yes.

He's my senior Mr. Ravi.

He'll ask you a few questions.

Tell me.

Why did you throw it?

Sir, one day I found out

that my sister got an ab*rtion,

that too, a Muslim child.

How did you find out?

Sir, she blurted it out

when I asked.

Why did you ask her?

- Meaning?

- I mean..

Why did you feel the need to ask?

Did you have an inkling she is

pregnant and getting aborted?

Was she eating too many pickles?

Don't think that

what you did was right just

because you got away with it!

Repeat, get punished again.

Who told you she was pregnant?

Sir, I received an

email from the clinic

where she had the ab*rtion.

That's when I found out.

Give me the address of the clinic.

Did Parul get aborted as well?

You will be jailed for 12 years.

Why don't you keep records?

Sir, the patient is inside.

Come outside.

Sir, please understand

we are doing social service.

If we do not

perform these ab*rtion,

A stone is tied to the feet

of the two-day-old girl child

before she is

thrown into the pond.

Please go and

see in the village,

we do not know how many babies

are thrown into the pond every day.

Sir, we are not

taking their lives,

we are saving them.

Saving them and informing

their families by email.

Mail?

Sir, in this line of work,

we do not send any

documents by mail to the girl,

so why would we

send them to others?

Sir, 11 victims out of

28 have been found

in this cyber cafe's list.

Give it here.

How did you do it so quickly?

This wasn't your cup of tea.

Sir, I have worked very swift.

I'm going to retire soon.

It's my last month.

Well done!

Sir!

11 girls out of 28 are

linked to this cyber cafe.

There's surely some connection.

We'll find out the connection.

I'll call Deepak Mishra.

Just answer it.

Mr. Mishra,

without creating a scene,

tell me if there is a way

to hack an email

ID from a cyber cafe.

Sir, there are keyboard loggers.

If installed on the computer,

all the data will be

recorded and mailed.

How can we find out

if these loggers are

installed on any computers?

Control Alt Shift plus Enter.

Press all the four keys at once.

It will be done.

Do you know any person

by the name Manu Sharma?

'Sir, he's the internet provider

of the college.'

He's quite close to the Dean.

'It was his idea

to install the firewall.'

Have you ever seen him ride

Zakir Siddiqui's college scooter?

Sir, he keeps traveling.

It's possible he used it.

- What happened, sir?

- It's not installed here.

Close.

Sir, he is not our

internet provider.

Sir!

He was our ex-employee

who was fired three years ago.

Just a minute.

He worked here?

Yes.

Thank you.

Sir, he's the same boy who made

P.K. Mishra's video. Desi Rebel.

Sir, he used to gather

information about girls

and send it to their

family or boyfriend

so they could do

whatever they wanted.

He worked at an ab*rtion clinic

and harbored resentment towards women.

Ravi,

it's possible that even Parul's

father knows something.

'It's possible, sir.'

- Come on.

How are you?

Great, sir.

Did you recognize us?

Absolutely.

What are you doing here, sir?

'We wanted to talk.

Come here.'

'Outside.'

Yes, sir. I was just locking up.

- Give me two minutes.

- Locking up?

Are you closing the shop?

- Yes.

- Very good, come here.

Just

Got him. Send the patrol car.

Dear Ravi.

I know you must be

in shock right now.

You thought your old father

didn't even know

how to send an email,

but he's sending

you a post-dated one.

Actually, today is

your mother's birthday,

and every year I used to

write a poem and recite it to her.

This time, you will

have to recite it instead.

You may feel shy

while reading the poem,

but don't let your

shyness get in the way

because my poem is much

bigger than your shyness.

Take care of yourself.

I hope you're enjoying

your job in the police now.

"Between your legs"

Dad!

Between your legs

Good morning.

Happy Birthday.

Thank you.

Son,

Shivani's father has called twice.

It's not good to keep him hanging.

Let's refuse.

Okay.

What are you doing?

Your shirts are all dirty,

- I'll wash them.

- No, you won't do it.

You won't do it!

Keep it down.

'Manu Sharma is an escaped convict.'

'You want P.K.Mishra's video

and he seeks protection.'

Just tell him

that you have his back.

Where did you get the shirt?

From dad's wardrobe.

- Yes, sir.

- Ravi

'Manu has fallen for the trap.'

'Reach O.P. Verma's factory

in two hours.'

Okay, sir.

Rocky!

Rocky Rocky!

Ro Rocky!

- What happened?

- I guess your wound is bleeding.

This is what he does when

he smells blood.

He just sticks to you.

- Aunt, where's Parul?

- She's inside.

Listen

Mr. Yadav

is still in the hospital.

Are you okay?

Yes, some of the

stitches came loose today.

No, It's not that bad.

If my dad were here, do

you know what he would say?

I'm no coward to be running

in the veins all along,

when the blood doesn't drop

from a wound, it's inconsequential.

That boy Manu

will be nabbed today.

We will find out who were

his accomplices as well.

Whether he'll be punished

or not depends on you.

- If you withdraw the case

- No.

I won't withdraw the case.

Yes. Just assume

Son,

we are doing a

recitation of Ramcharitmanas.

Come and join us

when you have some free time

for a while.

I wanted to say another thing.

If her picture was

taken off the internet

Uncle, your daughter

has come back home safely.

Celebrate a little.

You're concerned about the internet.

Am I right?

Absolutely.

How many?

One.

Your vision is good.

Do you remember

what Parul's father said?

The girl has slipped

out of our hands.

The girl

Manu definitely showed

the photo to her father.

Don't spare them, sir.

Mr. Yadav.

Om Prakash Verma will

serve him in a plate for us today.

Sir!

How much will you admire yourself?

Sorry, sir.

Sir, it's his last arrest.

Mr. Gyan wants to nab

him by the collar.

- Really?

- We will nab the b*stard!

- Hello?

- Ravi.

Sir, you

Ravi!

Get him!

Dad

Dear Ravi

"Being a cop"

"I am writing a poem.'

"Follow the instructions; behave."

"Get used to it."

"Get ready to get crucified."

"Get ready to get crucified."

"Melt the shackles of that

costume and forge a sword."

"f*ck the world!

Get ready to get crucified."

Hey!

Hey!

Whom do you work for?

The child

She's admitted, but she'll survive.

Mr Mr. Jagdish

He is fine as well.

And you are lucky

that you are fine as well.

Mr. Ravi

So many girls were drowned

in that pond by tying stones

that the pond has become poisonous

due to the phosphorous

from their bones.

Get up!

Go there!

Open the seat and sit!

Hmm.

Start talking now.

Sir, Parul said

that she didn't want to marry me.

She didn't want to talk

or keep any ties.

I said fine.

I'd live without you.

She wasn't meeting anyone

or attending her classes.

Then

She went to Ali Cyber Cafe

to get copies of her notes.

Manu got her password from there.

He showed it to me.

She sent Ashish our photograph.

You lied.

You said Rashmi told you.

Yes.

Rashmi didn't tell me.

Manu opened Parul's email

and showed it to me.

He always supported me as a friend

- and a brother.

- A brother?

Just like the rest of the brothers

who took up arms

to save him.

Sir, he has saved the honor of

many daughters-in-law and daughters

by providing information.

Next?

I, too

cried profusely when he told me

that Parul sent the photograph.

Then I

said in anger

that I'll throw acid

on Parul's face.

Then he explained it to me

that it is not so easy.

You'll do it and repent.

When an ab*rtion is

incomplete, there is bleeding.

It could prove fatal too.

Then was a boy

who threw acid on his sister

- and confessed his crime.

- Nitin Seth.

Yes.

He told me

where a successful

ab*rtion is desired,

then they administer

blood thinners to make

the blood less viscous.

So, I would have to do the same.

Sir, at first, I

didn't understand

what he meant by that.

Then he told me

to practice it on

someone else first.

So you threw the

blue water on Rashmi.

Yes. For practice.

Manu was sitting behind me.

Then?

When we had to throw it on Parul

I wasn't agreeing

on doing it.

But..

But?

He

- Manu was already adamant.

- I see.

So, it's Manu's fault?

No.

He said he would do it

and I didn't refuse.

Sir, you don't know

the pain of being cheated.

You don't know

the pain of being betrayed.

You will rot in prison for 12 years.

I am fine.

Tell me.

Since so many months

I was searching for that boy.

When I met him,

I didn't feel much different from

the boy who had thrown the acid.

Why are you saying this?

I used to think that

I am a good person,

just like my father.

That's why I hated the man

who misbehaved with my sister

and took advantage

of her to marry her.

A boy got angry with a girl

and threw acid on her.

I was angry with you,

so I called you to my hotel room.

Ravi, I wanted to come myself.

There's a difference.

The reason I called you was

because I was angry with you.

You came because you liked me.

I shouldn't have called

you to the hotel room.

I'm sorry.

I agree.

Because I am agreeing

to marry you,

you should know

that I'm not such a nice person.

Everyone is happy

with a smile on their face.

Your friend has come downstairs.

- What? Who?

- Come down.

Why are you hiding it?

I'm coming.

Everyone is happy

with a smile on their face.

Welcome.

- Give it to me.

- No. It's okay.

This way.

Come in.

Is this sir's room?

- Yes. Come in.

Congratulations on your wedding.

Now, besides the FIR, many other

things will have to be learned.

There is still time

for the wedding.

Till then I'll write an FIR.

I am going to Delhi

tomorrow for studies.

What will you be studying?

- Law.

- Law?

How is your health now?

I heard that you

had kidney surgery.

As long as I was in the hospital,

I was only in pain,

maybe the pain was so much

that there was no chance

of feeling anything else.

Then,

when I saw my reflection in the mirror

for the first time after arriving home,

I felt scared.

So scared that

I used to wet the bed at night.

So, I decided that

I won't drink tea,

milk, water or any

liquid for that matter.

After six months,

due to lack of water,

I developed kidney stones.

It was all because of my shame.

Why I am blabbering all this?

It's your wedding!

- Open the gift.

- Yes.

What does it contain?

Your dad gave it to me

on my farewell.

Dad has sent an

email, post-dated.

Is that so?

Yes. He wrote a poem for mom.

- What are you saying?

- He wants

me to recite it to mom.

It's a terrifying poem.

Parul!

Dear, let's go

and dance with everyone.

Come on.

- Yes.

Let's go.

Come on!

Mom!

What is it?

- Please be patient.

I have something to tell you.

- What's so important?

- It is important.

It's imperative I tell you.

Come on.

Be careful.

Actually

dad had written a poem for you

on your birthday.

But I didn't recite it to you

because of my shame.

Sorry.

The poem is called

Between your legs.

Inspite of all your efforts,

Certain fears still

had you every day,

Fears, that you felt

were necessary to have.

You mixed all

those fears in cotton,

And hid them in pillows,

covering them

with a childish argument,

you made a great

arrangement to sleep peacefully.

But if one day,

a special day,

a heavy day - dream

wanders into the night

and gets lost in your sleep,

then burdened by its weight

crushed inside the pillow,

It bursts out

Like white noise and

spreads in the air like cotton.

For such a day,

I want to tell you that

I have a poem

that is trapped

between your legs,

like a genie.

All you have to do is lie down,

Breathe slowly,

And rub your knees together

and on your command,

it will rise like smoke

and fight with white noise

and dissolve all your

necessary fears in the pillow.

For such a day,

I have also made arrangements

for you to sleep peacefully.
