Post by bunniefuu »

I want the landline records

for the night, the day before

and the day after.

I want the record for every

single phone call made.

You're a really demanding man, sir.

When will I get it?

Records of the entire hospital?

Our relationship has really evolved, sir!

Look, I had the file ready

before you asked for it.

This record is for?

Two days before and two days after.

You'll get your money tomorrow.

I could make your life easier

if you pay me today.

How?

No.

The money?

You'll get it.

Sir, I've done my research.

You work really hard.

You scour through the

CCTV footage day in and day out!

I figured I could help you out.

There's a landline phone at the reception.

The CCTV camera in the lobby takes

30 seconds to move from right to left.

So, for those 30 seconds

that phone's in a blind spot.

I have a list of about 25 numbers

which I feel are suspicious.

And these are the numbers that

were dialed the day your boss died.

Here you go.

Why the f*ck were you

sitting on it, dumbass?

Hello?

Hello!

Who is it?

It's me, Shukla!

Hello, sir.

I am calling from IICMS.

Man, you guys have really screwed me.

I'm borrowing money to

pay my medical bills.

Hello!

Hello?

Hello!

Balvinder Transport Service.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

You?

What's wrong?

I just wanted to have

one last look at this room

before I bring the CBI here with me.

I'm kidding.

I really miss this room.

This chair

I hope I can come here

whenever I wish to.

You must've been really surprised

when I made Aditi the defence minister.

You're the prime minister.

What more do you want?

Mental peace!

And I can't have it until

I have a two-faced chameleon

breathing down my neck.

This is where you k*lled him, right?

How did you give him the poison?

What did you use?

So

you guys have been

fighting amongst yourselves?

Who was fighting?

Speak up!

Sir, it was Haryana versus Bihar.

Where are you from?

I'm from Rajasthan.

I was trying to make peace.

You were trying to make peace?

Really?

You guys are young blood.

These twats on TV say that

you're the future of this country.

The country's future

is standing here with ointment

splattered across its bruised a*s.

One ticket to Dubai costs 21,098 rupees!

If your f*cking shitshow

forces me to cancel my f*cking tickets,

I'll have to take appropriate

action against the perpetrators.

Are you getting me?

Now, be the good little boys you are,

and keep chanting

"Vande Mataram" every day.

What will you say?

Vande Mataram.

Once again and louder!

What will you say?

-Vande Mataram.

-Vande Mataram.

Very good.

-Kasturi!

-Yes, sir?

Take them to the hospital.

And listen up!

If I get one more complaint

I'll oil your asses up and

beat the sh*t out of you myself!

Clear?

Shiva!

I've been calling you!

Why aren't you answering?

Something's wrong.

I don't think Chetan did it.

He wouldn't have reacted the way he did,

had he done it.

Maybe, we're not looking

at the whole picture.

Everything's possible, Shiva.

But why would Chetan do it?

I don't know.

Maybe--

Maybe it was their plan

to gain some sympathy.

But they ended up having a fight.

Or they wanted control over the party.

-Or they don't want us in the--

-Sana! Sana!

What are you saying?

I'm f*cked up, Shiva!

And I am f*cking you up too.

I know--

I think we should give it some time.

But we can't just sit here.

And

we can't leave it up

to the police either.

We should get some help.

From who?

Samar was here at VNU.

He had praised you.

He likes you.

And he's in power.

If he steps in

we could have a fair investigation.

He's close to Mr. Jigar as well.

So

we could talk to him

and ask him to help us.

f*cking piece of sh*t!

Hello, Dr. Pathak!

What?

Mr. Gurpal?

How are you?

Yes, I'm doing really well.

But what are you doing here?

Well, I'm just getting a three-hour sleep

for the past few weeks

because of you and Dr. Sooraj.

I'm forced to stare at your ugly faces

and empty lives on my laptop.

Tell me, is that fair?

Mr. Gurpal

you've questioned me

in every possible way.

I haven't said a word.

And, sir, I--

I've already received my payment.

Why would I take a risk?

That is why I am asking

why would you take a risk?

Gurpal, I've warned

you against coming here!

You're creeping me out now!

One minute, ma'am.

Let me explain.

Dr. Pathak

I have a couple of bad news for you.

The first one is in this folder.

Dr. Sooraj often pays your wife a

visit between 02:00 to 03:00 p.m.

What do they do in there?

Well, I'm not interested

in wasting my time.

I don't think you're

interested in watching it either.

The second

is in this folder.

Four hours before Devki died

you were tying your

shoelaces at the reception.

The camera moved from right to left

and when it came back you

were still tying your laces.

But the thing is

you used the wrong foot

and the laces were already tied.

Take your glasses off

Take your glasses off.

Tell me the truth, m*therf*cker!

Pathak?

I was f*cked, sir!

I was f*cked.

The deal I made with you

it really haunted me.

Really?

I felt like

what I was about to do was a grave sin.

Bummer.

It's a vicious job!

I wanted to get out of this deal.

But I knew that

you guys would k*ll me if I

tried to get out of this deal.

I was just trying to save

Mr. Devki Nandan.

Mr. Devki Nandan's close associate

Anuradha Kishore.

I found her assistant, Maithili's number.

I don't know why,

but I thought if I told Ms. Maithili

she would try and save Mr. Devki Nandan.

You told Maithili about this?

sh*t.

Then?

That was it, sir.

She didn't help me either.

I had to do

what you guys wanted me to do.

What proof did you give Maithili?

No, sir!

I didn't give her any proof.

Damn it, Pathak!

Stop lying now!

How did she know about the chemical?

Ma'am, please believe me.

I didn't give her any proof.

In fact, back then, we had no proof!

There was no evidence!

I just called her once, that's all.

Did you meet Maithili after that?

No, sir.

Sir, I didn't even give her my name.

Sir

Ma'am!

Ma'am!

Please, trust me, ma'am!

All I did was one phone call!

I didn't give her any evidence, any proof!

f*cking b*tch!

So, when Anuradha came over

to meet Father that evening

she knew it!

Yes, assuming Maithili

told her everything.

b*tch!

The old hag's devious, sir.

As you guys have seen

the revolutionaries of SAI are

busy fighting amongst themselves.

The entire university is laughing at us!

Because you guys are

fighting like petty f*cking g*ons!

Do you think a party

that cannot handle itself,

will be able to handle your issues?

Enough! Stop this bullshit.

-What do you mean by bullshit--

-Guys, please shut up!

-I didn't say a word, man!

-Exactly!

You're not saying a word.

You aren't campaigning with us!

Everyone knows you handed

over the phone to the police.

They were "fighting" for farmers' freedom.

But they've ended up in jail themselves.

You know that the cops always support JLD!

And the media is their f*cking lapdog!

They tried everything they could!

But they had to let Chetan go in two days!

Our national party

has been running this

country for the past three terms.

And this college needs

a strong party like CJLD as well!

Come on!

We have the presidential debate tomorrow.

I request you to be there.

Let's do this.

Let's stay together till

the elections are over.

Just a few days more!

Chetan?

What do you say?

Alright.

Shiva?

You are contesting the election, right?

Are you contesting the election?

No, sir.

Not in the midst of this chaos.

He's waiting for you.

Sir, what you said at

the university the other day,

that's our reality as well.

He was a really close friend.

And as you know, friendship supersedes

party politics in our university.

Sir, if you could push

for a fair inquiry

it would really help Vishal's case.

Are you sure none of

your friends are involved?

No.

When was the last time you saw him?

On the 12th.

A CBI team is already on it

unofficially.

Hey!

Are you coming?

No, man. Carry on.

Alright.

I'm reporting live from Chandni Chowk.

The CBI has discovered

several crucial evidences

in the m*rder case of

VNU student Vishal Awasthi.

Our sources tell us that

a team of CBI officials

is headed straight towards

Mahant Kunj police station.

The investigation is under progress.

Reporting live for K News,

Owais Bhatt, Delhi.

They were on it the second

I got a call from Jigar.

They'll be releasing

an official statement soon.

On the night of the 12th,

Chetan Kranti and some of his associates,

kidnapped Vishal Awasthi.

They were holding him

in a factory in Old Delhi.

Two days later,

Vishal was m*rder*d.

The DNA reports clearly prove that

Chetan Kranti is the man

responsible for this m*rder.

Who's Chetan Kranti?

Where are you taking him?

Do you have a warrant?

Sir, please listen to me!

Sir!

Sir, please listen to me!

Chetan, we'll handle it.

Hello?

Shiva!

It's me, Samar Pratap.

You were right.

CBI is done with its investigation.

It was Chetan.

Come home.

We need to talk.

Yes, sir.

Students!

This debate is being canceled.

There are some serious concerns

with regards to one candidate.

The browser that was used to call you

was used for an online

transaction as well.

That's all I could get.

I know this vulnerability on this portal.

I was trying to track someone else

and coincidentally my

system found the match.

I've found an address and a phone

number based on the credit card details.

The address is,

"Alley number seven, 15/6, Old Delhi."

And you're sure about this?

Hundred percent.

Professor!

Jagriti!

-Hi!

-Hi! How are you?

All good! All good!

And congratulations!

Sandhya gave me the good news.

Thank you.

But I'm not going to be the dean.

Yeah, but you're going

to be a father, right?

Now be prepared for the madness

and I am coming for the party!

Bye! See ya!

Sandhya's pregnant, Samar.

It's over.

She won't be coming back.

She always wanted to have a child.

And now

she'll marry him.

No, she won't.

You don't know her, Samar.

You don't know the law.

Our dear friend, Mr. Kailash

will have to divorce his wife as well.

Sir, Shiva's here.

I'll talk to you later.

Jigar

you have a scandal up your sleeve.

You might lose a finger.

But the enemy's gonna

lose his f*cking d*ck.

You should be contesting

this election, Shiva.

Our party has been shattered, sir.

Anyway

I'm the traitor who ratted the party out.

You can be Jan Lok Dal's candidate.

The JLD youth wing has 40 lakh students.

Not a single one of them

has made it to this room.

You might think I'm being opportunistic.

Or that I helped you out

because I had an ulterior motive.

And that's alright, Shiva.

You have a fire in you.

When you speak,

the people, they believe.

Getting thousands of people to

believe you is no mean feat, Shiva.

This country's politics needs you.

And you need politics.

A corner office, no matter how grand

won't satisfy you, Shiva.

And it shouldn't.

But you know this deep inside.

I knew it.

I knew it when I was 22.

Everything you want to do,

you need to be in power to do it.

And at least for the next 15 years,

JLD's the only party

that's gonna be in power.

You know it.

The rest is up to you.

But remember

your present fame

it won't last forever.

Some girl will come along

with a dazzling new wink,

she'll become the new internet icon.

Two years from now

the press might print someone else's face

with your name written under it.

And no one will give a sh*t.

You cannot be a nobody anymore, Shiva.

You'll lose your mind.

The university doesn't

have its candidates.

The election nominations

will be reopening.

Sleep over it.

You're a good boy.

Thank you, sir.

URINATING ON THE WALL

IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED

Sir, you had asked me

to sleep over it, but

I've made my decision.

You are right.

I need politics.

I will contest the election, sir.

But I won't do it for your party.

Gotcha!

I'll be an independent candidate.

I'll form my own party.

I might have to work

a little harder, but I'll do it, sir.

And thank you very much, sir

for having this talk.

Now, it's my turn.

Will you like to have a drink with me?

I hope I have your blessings, sir.

Shiva

all the best.

Thank you, sir.
