02x07 - Birth of the New God

[bunniefuu]

Take it easy, young man.

You haven't slept for
a minute since two nights.

Take this.

I have to tell you, I am very
happy with our progress.

We are so close.

This is just the beginning, sir.

All we need is the flow of unlimited data.

If that becomes possible,

this machine will be able

to predict people's behaviours,
desires and emotions.

It will be able to predict
the future like Brahma.

I've always had a concern.

This tech is a double-edged sword.

If it can predict someone's behavior,

it can also manipulate that person.

We just can't imagine

the damage it can cause if
it falls in the wrong hands.

So, we need to make
a fail-safe design.

To make it fully
operational without that

can be quite risky.

Quite risky.

I have an idea.

Let's run a test simulation on me.

Come on. Let's see
what is in my future.

The machine has the most
number of observation about us.

Predicting our future
should be easy for it.

Let's see

Rubbish.

Let's take a break. Come.

Sarvanand, this machine is

far from perfect yet.

Did you not see its
prediction a short while ago?

What is our aim?

It is to predict human behavior

and stop the crime, violence

and possible wars in our society.

To control the chaos

so that we can change the society.

But without empathy
and moral understanding,

this is not possible. Not at all.

My aim is the same.

But my path is different.

Morality is nothing
but show-off to me.

You want to improve mankind.

But the improvement
will be possible

only when we accept reality.

I've conceptualized a new world.

I can build it with
the help of this machine.

I want to serve mankind. But you...
- Professor Rao,

the world needs a new order.

And you can't stop it.

What is in this?

Your fee.

You have given Kali
an infallible weapon.

I can at least set you free.

I'm sorry, Nusrat.
- Zoya, please.

I can't give you clearance
to continue on this case.

Please, Zoya. I need to...

See, what you need is a break.

Stay away from this
case for a few days.

It will be good for you.
- It will be good for me?

Look, this is not just
a case. This is my life.

After the sensational expose
made CBI officer Rasool Sheikh

and later his death,

everyone is looking at
the CBI with suspicion.

The government agency's credibility
is going down day-by-day.

It's difficult to
trust any institution,

whether it's financial...
- With the market plummeting,

SEBI has announced that the market
will stay closed this week.

A decision will be made next week
after reviewing the situation.

Many police officials believe

the situation has
gone out of control.

The government will
have to declare Emergency.

The crashing market has
led to over 100 suicides.

There is death everywhere.

Probably the darkest time
in the history of our country.

I'm ready to take the complete
responsibility for this failure.

I'm ready to resign, sir.
- No one will resign.

What?

We've been defeated., sir.

It's all over.

You are right.

We've been defeated. We have lost.

We have lost our friends,

colleagues, our families...

But, now,

it's our turn to win.

Because we've left
nothing left to lose.

And when we have
nothing more to lose,

We can do this.

Let's do it. We made mistakes.

But we will learn
from those mistakes.

Let's give it our best shot.

And let's look again
where we went wrong.

Sir, our biggest challenge is

the fact that Shubh already
knows things in advance.

He has already made
all the predictions.

We need to be one step ahead
of him if we want to defeat him.

We need to predict what he's going to
do before he can predict our actions.

Shubh uses data for his predictions.

Exactly. He has all our date,
but we have no information on him.

We do.

We don't have any data on him.

But we have his actions.

They can tell us
what his vision is.

His actions aren't limited
to just k*lling people.

He wants to show
the society its ugly truth.

He wants to show the world
that the principles it runs on

are hollow.

Each attack of his has a pattern.

If we follow that pattern,
we can predict

what his next move will be.

So, you're saying

that the Asur or Shubh or
whatever he is, knows what we

will do in advance?

He has shaken the foundations
of our democracy.

And you're singing
paeans about his magic!

We must have some answers!
- Sir,

the collapse of any
civilization in history has

followed the same pattern.
The five stages of anarchy.

The first stage is denial.

The state underestimates the risk.

He's a new-age t*rror1st.

To consider Shubh

a serial k*ller and a t*rror1st
was our biggest mistake.

Adi!

Through murders, robberies
and other such crimes,

he spread doubt in the society.

He planned a huge attack so that
the A*F would take over the case.

The second stage is retaliation.

We tried an aggressive
approach to catch him.

But that triggered a chain
of events planned by him.

Shalini. Harivansh.

Akbar Mirza.
And finally, Arjun Bhalla.

He made us collapse
our financial system.

The third stage is negotiation.

I will count to ten.

If I don't get the remote access...

We tried to deal with him in
Nusrat's case, but that was a trap.

Rasool's death was certain, but we
were made the villains for it

so that people's faith in us...

Sir! Sir!
- ...in the government

...and the judicial system
would falter.

The fourth stage is w*r.

We are in it right now. People have
become each other's enemies.

There's complete chaos.

And

the fifth stage?

Anarchy.

Now, either Shubh or
the state will win.

We can't prevent in either case.

Because the state turns into
an anarchist while fighting one.

So, from here,

no matter who loses,

anarchy will win.

Cheers!
- Cheers!

"Happy birthday to you!"

"Happy birthday to you!"

Hey!

Come on!

Come on!

Hello.
- Listen to me carefully, Paul.

I'm holding 50 people hostage.

But whether these
50 people will live

or die

is up to you.

Who are you? What do you want?

Who I am

makes no difference.

Listen to what I want.

I want to talk to the person

who is the root of all problems.

Dhananjay Rajpoot.

Breaking news!

There's a new situation developing.

Around 50 people have been
held hostage by six armed men

in Cafe Rosemary in
the Connaught Place area of Delhi.

According to our sources,
there are six children

and 15 women in
that group of people.

The hostages are safe right now.

We tried to talk to them, but

their leader said he'd
only speak to you.

I'm Dhananjay Rajpoot speaking.
- Dhananjay Rajpoot!

You might as well have
called yourself Yamaraja.

You cause death wherever you go.

What do you want?

Arjun Bhalla.

Just him as of now.

I'll let you know the rest
of my demands later.

I'll try. I can't give
you any guarantees.

Arjun Bhalla is in custody.

I'll need permission
from the Ministry.

Tell the Ministry that if we don't
get Arjun Bhalla within three hours,

I'll start k*lling people.

Quiet! Quiet!

Dhananjay Rajpoot,
you have three hours.

Tell the A*F that the kidnappers
want Arjun Bhalla.

We can't give in to
their stupid demands.

We're not giving in to their demands.

We need time to think.

Look, I've said this a million times.

I don't know who these people are!

Mr. Bhalla, we really don't
have time to waste right now.

I swear! I don't have any idea!

I don't know what they want from me!
- Mr. Bhalla,

the RBI, SEBI, Fortune Bank...

Almost every big bank has
filed a case against you.

Even if you somehow get
yourself out of those cases,

Shubh's going to k*ll you, anyway.

I don't know anyone named Shubh.
- But he knows you.

You don't need to know
him for him to k*ll you.

Mr. Bhalla, how did you
know about the bots?

Shalini and I met at a party.

She told me we could use AI bots to

manipulate share prices
in the market. And

that we could make a lot of money.
- And you did as she said?

If I hadn't, I'd have gone
bankrupt within a year's time.

I bought her bots and transferred
money to her foreign bank accounts.

Where did you get the money from?

Fortune Bank.

Didn't you try to find out where
Shalini had got those bots from?

She'd speak regularly with someone.
- With whom?

I don't have a name.

I just know his ID.
- Please put it down.

You think Kamini also gets
her instructions from this ID?

Kevin, can you hack into the account?
- Let me try, sir.

Hey!

They're all against me.

Mr. Shashank, Paul, Zoya.

Nusrat, it's nothing like that.

So, why aren't they letting
me work on the case?

I can handle this. You know it.
- Of course, I do.

In this condition,
without counselling,

they won't let you...
- What condition?

Really?

At some point in time, you and
DJ were also in this condition.

No one cared about
the protocol then?

They can allow you but not me.

Why?

Because I'm a woman!

I can't handle my emotions?

That's rubbish.
- Yeah.

I know it's not fair at all.

Nusrat, I'll talk to
Mr. Shashank. That...

That's all I can do.

That's all you can do.

*** you!

Kamini, if you don't help us

I promise you won't get
to see your daughter ever again.

Did you get your orders from this ID?

I would get detailed files of
my targets from this ID.

Where are those files?
- On my online account.

So, when you take
a picture from a website,

its digital data contains
its source information.

We found some photos
in Kamini's cloud account.

We traced their digital footprints.

And their source is this.

Spell Notion.
- Right. And look at this.

It's the same platform which turned

Kesar and Rasool
into national heroes.

All the hashtags, propaganda
and petitions

it all started from here.
- Okay. Maybe...

Maybe, the pictures came from here.
But the rest of the information?

From right there.
From social media platforms,

Small Trust 24/7.

From political views,
to favorite movies,

income, hobbies and
literally everything.

Guys, there's more.

See this.

Ishanis' personal videos.

These pictures weren't
obtained from social media.

They are way too personal.

Why would Ishani take photos
from such weird angles?

Maybe these photos and videos weren't

taken by Ishani.
- What do you mean?

See, when you download
an app like Spell Notion,

you have to give them

access to your microphone
and camera, right? - Right.

Maybe Spell Notion takes
all the videos and pictures

without its users' permission.

That means Spell Notion is spying
on the private accounts of its users.

It's *** ill*gal!

And Shubh is using this illegally
obtained user information. - Right.

Still, why would Spell Notion
give its date to Shubh?

Maybe Shubh hacked into their server.

I highly doubt that. That is
Spell Notion we're talking about.

See, Spell Notion is
a multi-billion dollar company.

It's a social media giant.

Exactly.

That their servers got hacked
and they don't know about it is...

That's impossible.

Maybe they know.

Sir!
- Why are our kids stuck there?

We're reporting live
from Cafe Rosemary

where 50 people are
being held hostage.

The families and relatives of
the hostages are waiting for them

and the CBI is still negotiating
with the kidnappers.

You don't have lot
of time, Dhananjay Rajpoot.

I'll start throwing the dead
bodies out one by one.

Do you know that if
a single hostage dies,

not a single demand of yours will
be fulfilled? - Dhananjay Rajpoot,

you won't tell me what
to do. I will tell you...

To fulfill your demands,

I need give a guarantee

to the Ministry that all
the hostages are safe.

So, what do you want to do?

I'll send a team member inside to
check if all the hostages are safe.

After we get his green signal,
we'll hand over Arjun Bhalla to you.

Okay.

But tell your man

that if he tries to act smart,

you'll have to pay for it.

Okay, I found something.

Apparently, Spell Notion suffered

a big ransomware attack
five years ago.

According to the hacker community,

an anonymous hacker
had caused the attack.

In fact, Spell Notion even had
to shut down for a couple of hours.

But no one knows
what happened after that.

It was all covered up mysteriously.

Professor Rao also
died five years ago.

It has to be Shubh. Who else?

Shubh needs extensive data
for his AI programme.

Maybe he got it from here.

We can flop Shubh's plan
if we block the flow of data.

For that, we'll have to
trace that particular server.

Spell Notion has
multiple servers in India.

It's almost impossible to locate
the one that Shubh is using.

We're not even sure it's them.
We'll have to prove that first.

We found some data
on Rasool's system. - Yes.

Does it have any connection
to Spell Notion? - Let me find out.

Okay. So, I found some
tags in Rasool's data.

They match with Spell Notion's data.

Oh, great! It's clear, then.

Spell Notion is supplying
data to Shubh. - Right.

We need to shut them down now.
- It's not going to be easy.

But why?

We have the proof now.
We found a direct link.

But on the basis of
this proof, their lawyers

won't even let us
enter their office.

We can find the evidence later.

Right now, it's important
to shut down this server.

We need to shut them down and now.

Can we hack the Spell Notion
server that Shubh is using?

No. No. Sir, we can't do that.

It'll take us months to breach
their security. Can't do that.

There is a way. TAO.

TAO?
- Tailored Access Operation.

Sir, it's a group of hackers who

work for the US Government.
Mostly, the NSA.

Okay.
- I have some friends there.

A team will enter from here.
Another team will cover them.

Our sn*pers... - What the hell
are you talking about?

You can't go inside.

This is just a back-up plan. We need
to be prepared for all possibilities.

Be alert. Cut the power supply
when I ask you to.

You'll be provoking the kidnappers
by cutting the power supply.

Do you understand that?

DJ is right. We can't take this risk.

Sir, we can't sit idle either.

It's a hostage situation. We will
have to take this risk.

I will decide what to do
and when to do it.

Am I clear?

Okay.

Call your man.

He'll talk to them?

This kid?

DJ.

Are you sure about this?

If something happens to him...
- Nothing will happen to him, sir.

This boy is special.
- Is this a joke?

What are you doing?
- Sir, please trust me.

Trust? I can't put the lives of
50 people in this kid's hands.

Prakash,

I have full faith in DJ.

Let him do it his way.

The police have pinned all
their hopes on this wonder boy.

Would it be right to put the life
of an 11-year-old kid in danger?

The kidnappers have modern weapons.
- What the ***?

What is the CBI thinking?
Who is this kid?

We've been hearing the tales of
this kid's miracles for months.

But is this the only
option left with the A*F?

Sir, what are you doing?
Has DJ lost his mind?

Sir, the kid can die.
- Nikhil, we know what we are doing?

I'll call you later. Okay.

Dhananjay Rajpoot will have to
pay a heavy price for this joke.

I am not here to harm you.

You think you can harm us?

Say what you're here
to say and leave.

I don't want to talk
to you. Your father does.

Hey!

Stop this nonsense.

Just do your job and get lost!

He wants to say something to you.
- He does?

My father died 10 years ago.
- I know.

However, only the body dies.

But the soul lives on.

Lecture someone else. Get lost!

Your father says,

Bittu, keep the oil-lamp
of our family lit.

Don't ever let its flame die.

How do you know?

He says,

What you're doing is wrong.

Hey! Stop this drama and get lost!

Remember when you had
failed in the tenth grade?

I had hit you.
- I said keep quiet!

I didn't give you any
food for two days.

This is your last warning!
Understood?

Bittu,

I know I used to scold you a lot.

But I also loved you a lot, my son.

I was proud of you, son.

But you've gone astray, my child.

I feel terribly sad
to see you like this.

This is all my mistake.

Forgive me.

Listen, kid.

Stop this drama. Understood?

My father hated me.

He used to love you a lot.

He just couldn't say it.

He used to think about you

the whole time he was in jail.

He never wanted you to be like him.

You still have time.

Don't walk on the path of crime.

No.

Nothing can change now.

It's too late.

Repentance is not bound by time.

This is not right.

This is wrong.

Wow!

TAO scanned the patchwork
for you very quickly!

You'll get access when
the firewall gets breached.

Only if you let me concentrate.
- But, ma'am, if you

don't get out of there
within three minutes,

all our hard work will go waste.

Kevin.

Just letting you know.

Two minutes twenty-five seconds

before they detect a breach.
- Kevin,

I have eyes. I can see.

Nikhil!
- I'm here.

Spell Notion has 25 servers in India.
- Okay.

24 of them are mid-sized
and four are big.

I think it's one of those four.

There's a fifth hidden one.

It's outgoing traffic is ten times
more compared to those of the others.

I'm sure this is the one.
- Can you find the exact location?

I'm trying.
- Ma'am, 30 seconds.

Ma'am, ten seconds.

Got it! Noida, Phase-2, Dadri Road.

I've captured the location.

Break open the door.

Sir, do you remember Pushkar Johri?
- Pushkar Johri.

He was fired from his job two years
ago because he was accused of

sexual harassment.

We got him here.

Pushkar shot himself.

We found his laptop, but it's

completely shattered.

How did you know the kidnapper
would lay down his weapon?

All of us have good within us.

We just need to identify it.

Well done.

You won't believe it.
- Thank you.

Look carefully at this divine power.

Look at this avatar.
b*ll*ts couldn't touch him.

Many b*ll*ts were fired,
but nothing happened to him.

The demons sprayed him with b*ll*ts,
but the avatar just smiled.

He's a superhero.
- The kidnappers couldn't harm

this little divine avatar.
- The kid has divine powers.

Hail Lord Anant!
- All hail Him!

Hail Lord Anant!
- All hail Him!

There's a saying.

Iron can only be
destroyed by its rust.

Shubh's rust is his ego.

Kali will only come out in the open

when Kalki challenges him.

Good always defeats evil.

When I met Anant,

I was absolutely sure that
he could be our Kalki.

Lies spoken for a good deed is
always superior to the truth.

Sir, with Anant's help, we can
save people's lives.

But we need your
permission for that.

After that, I just had to

create a mysterious image for him

to make people think that he had

a divine power.

A harmless poison.

And its antidote.

We had caused the landslide.

We hid that boy.

A kid...
- In the eyes of the world,

Anant was turning into Kalki.
- ...calling him the miracle boy.

We just needed the validation
of a great sage

like Swami Bhairavnath.

It has been proven
that Anant is an avatar.

And we got it.
- So, we have decided that

on the holy occasion of Maha Purnima
the day after tomorrow,

we shall worship Anant at
the Mukti Ghat in Varanasi.

Now, the game will be ours

and Shubh will play it.

You must have heard the stories
of Lord Krishna's childhood.

He k*lled many a great demons.

There is only one solution
to the demon of this age.

Anant.

How did you allow this, sir?

Nikhil, I think this was
the best plan we had.

No, sir. That's what you think.

Just think. The hostage crises

and the so-called miracles

were controlled and
orchestrated operations.

What do you think will happen next?

You can't control everything, right?

Sir, you've made an 11-year-old
kid a target for Shubh.

I will protect him.

Sir, you and I know quite well

that mere intentions aren't
enough to protect our loved-ones.

Nikhil,

do you trust me?

I wish I could.

Hail Lord Anant!
- All hail Him!

The number of people who think Anant
is an avatar of Kalki is increasing.

The situation has
improved quite a bit

since Anant appealed
people to stay calm.

Meanwhile, the police is
saying there hasn't been

a single report of violent
crimes in the last 12 hours.

The city has been quite peaceful.

One can't praise Anant enough.

Anant used his divinity to douse
the fire that was lit in the society.

A divine power has taken
birth in the form of a human.

He was born to put an end
to the sins in the world.

Hail Lord Anant! - It's been proven
that Anant is an avatar of God.

...is increasing.

I found this on Pushkar's laptop.

A man m*rder*d his wife
and kids two days ago

when he received this video
from an unknown ID.

He found out that she
was cheating on him.

There are thousands of
such personal videos.

He is inciting people.

He is inciting people by
revealing their secrets.

There's one more thing.

There's no place for them here.
- Remember

how this page created
riots last month?

Oh! And this guy said that
he didn't give this speech.

He was saying the truth.

I processed it and I found this.

Can you see these dots?
- Yeah.

It's a deep-fake video.

Basically, there are two parts.
Compromising data,

confessions and crimes.

And misinformation and propaganda.

Shubh is using these things
to provoke and incite people.

One is the truth and the other
is a lie. - Truth and lies.

Maya.

Mayastra.

Maya.

The weapon of illusion.

According to mythology,
the 'Asuras' came under

the influence of illusion and
started fighting with each other.

Deep-fake videos,
social media, news channels...

And who does not have secrets.

Spell notion had all these data.

And now, Shubh is
using it to create chaos.

This is the modus operandi of Kali.

To make the common man sin.

He's just trying to prove his point.

Everyone has evil in them.

And when the people are divided,

evil rules.

Kali Yuga.

For how long will you
hide your face from us?

Nothing happens before the assistance of correct time.

??

The false avatar created by you is
not going to affect me in any way.

If that were the case,
you wouldn't have called me.

What? Are you scared?

Do you feel jealous? Do you know
why Anant is bigger than you?

Because you create your own followers

while Anant's followers
are created naturally.

Fine.

Let us test your intense faith.

I am giving that avatar a chance
to show his capabilities.

At 12 p.m. tomorrow,

the avatar and I will debate.

In front of the whole world.

By the end of the debate, the world
will know the truth about the avatar.

Why do you think I'll do as you say?

If the avatar doesn't
show up for the debate,

thousands of people will die.

The avatar you created

will be the reason
behind your destruction.
