In the battle of Asal Uttar…

for his tremendous courage

and fortitude,

Captain of the 4th Mountain Division,
Hardeep Singh Bedi,

we salute you.

And look forward to your bright future

in the Army of our great nation.

Congratulations.

-Thank you.
-Major next year, huh?

In entertainment news…

The new film Border releases this week.

Jackie Shroff, Sunny Deol,
Suniel Shetty, Tabu, Rakhee, Pooja Bhatt,

all starring
in J.P. Dutta's epic war film

about the Indo-Pakistan war of 1971.

The film is said to highlight

our army's great courage and heroism

with great success.

And with critics already
praising the songs…

Make the toast later.
Only after sir comes in.

Hardeep! Breakfast.

Your Honor, the defense objects.

-The defense is hardly--
-This wasn't in the primary evidence.

I'm going to allow it, Mr. Keswani.
Please proceed, Mr. Karve.

Thank you, Your Honor.

"Not even a nail could be driven in
without the permission from Mr. Ansal."

That's from the cinema manager.

We also have these checks.

Your Honor…

These are checks signed
by Sushil Ansal himself.

These show he was fully involved in
the operation of the cinema at that time.

Your Honor,
through board resolutions and minutes,

we have already established

that in 1989
Gopal and Sushil Ansal relinquished

all managerial responsibility
and resigned from the board.

But these checks are from 1994.

Which is three years before the accident.

But it is still after you claim
that they resigned.

Your Honor, we believe
there are more recent checks.

Your Honor,
even Sushil Ansal's son Pranav Ansal

had resigned from the board
by February of 1997.

When the fire happened, they had nothing
to do with the operation of the cinema.

The documents that
have been submitted are incomplete.

Prosecution needs to
submit the pending documents.

Thank you, counsels.

Sir. Pleasure.

Find me those other checks.

Come on.

Let's look for the car.
It's here somewhere.

Wait. Where are you going?

You happy now?
Maybe you can send more people to jail.

Why have they arrested Veer Singh?

-Why are you harassing us poor people?
-Guard!

-Take him.
-Let's go, come.

What will you gain by my father's arrest?

Will it bring your daughter back?
They're still dead.

-Right, you stupid bitch?
-Come on!

Your kids aren't come back, you bitch!

No matter how long you loiter
around these courts! Understand?

All good?

I made dinner.

I'm not hungry.

I had a very tough day.

Karve wants us to go through
all the checks again.

Shall I make some Maggi?

Neelu?

Shekhar, I'm really not hungry.

Thank you.

Ten of Spades.

Eight of Spades.

Hardeep?

Five of Hearts.

Jack of Spades.
Sorry, old chap, today's not your day.

Excuse me.

Water, please.

Cheeku, Cheeku, come to your mama…

What happened to you today, Hardeep?

Nothing.

Nothing? What kind of a game was that?

You had the cards.
And you play a Five of Hearts?

What's this?

What's bothering you?

-If you don't say anything, how can--
-I should have been there.

Where?

The war. In '71.

Twenty-six years
and we're still having this conversation.

-And I'm to blame?
-I never said that.

I did not want to lose you.

It was either the war or us.
And you chose us.

Actually, you did yourself a favor.

What chance did you stand
on the front with that injury?

You left a hero in '65.

Khushwant was the hero, not me. In '71!

I let them down.

They're not the ones
you let down, Hardeep.

This is the original floor plan
for the cinema.

And this is the floor plan
on the day of the fire.

Now, look at this.

Twenty extra seats were added here,

so the upper exit was blocked.

And when they added the VIP box,
the left exit was also blocked.

These doors were locked,
which left only one exit.

The smoke entered the balcony from below?

Blocking that one, too.

There must have been smoke
coming from somewhere else.

Or there wouldn't be enough
to fill a hall this size. The AC vents.

The staff claims all the air blowers
were out of order that day.

-May I leave this with you?
-Yeah, sure.

Shekhar?

You didn't recognize me, right?

Abhishek?

Buddy!

How are you?

But weren't you in the U.S.?

Long story. Lots to catch up on. Chai?

I have an appointment.

Come on…

-Maybe just a quick one.
-Done.

-Yeah.
-Come on.

Can't say no to a chai. Come.

I clearly remember those checks!

April and May 1997.

They have to be here somewhere.

Not in this one.

Check those files, in that corner.

Come on.

Change of plans. Let's stop in South Ex.

Sorry, ma'am, sir is not available today.

One minute, let me check.

Ma'am, today just isn't possible.

Okay, ma'am, I'll book you
for day after tomorrow. Okay.

Is everything okay?

Yeah, of course,
I was just in the area so I thought…

How is Tina?

And your never-ending renovations.

-All that expense…
-Oh, stop it!

Tina is okay.
She wants to be a VJ. On Channel V.

What happened to Egyptology?

Apparently it has no scope these days.

How's Papa?

Good.

-Actually--
-Aunty!

-Hi!
-Hello, hello!

I only have a minute.
They're working me to death.

They must give you time for lunch, no?

So come over. This weekend, Sunday?

Will Uncle be there too?

Of course!

Amrita, Mr. Singhania is
expecting those faxes. So…

I'll see you.

Even she likes him better.
Just like that bloody dog!

Mom, are you okay?

Took me 25 years to escape IB's bullshit.

Of course, the wife stayed behind.

Why would she, when she's
taking everything in the divorce?

But honestly,
it's great that we didn't have any kids.

So, here I am, surrounded by co-eds again.

Just like dirty old Professor Nath.

Cheers.

What about you? Married? Kids?

Saved yourself a lot of trouble.
But you were always the smart one.

What was the name of that girl
you were always singing for?

I don't remember.

How could you?
There were so many of them.

Cheers to them.

Cheers.

You're sure about the date?

Yes. February 1997.

I remember because that's when the
board accepted Pranav Ansal's resignation.

You're home early?

Another bloody postponement.

But Amrita's helping me
to check all the files.

Let's see how it goes.

-It's not here either.
-Check in that corner.

Shekhar, how did it go with the professor?

Good. Helpful.

-Neelam.
-Yes?

Now we just need to find the original.

I'll have some water.

Can't believe they survived.

And they're back again.

Something funny?

What happened, Bedi?

No, nothing. Looks like
we've got a couple of pros watching.

You think you can beat us?

-Bedi, they can beat us.
-Hold on!

Sir, we didn't mean anything. I'm sorry.

You're sorry?
Come learn some manners, kid.

Sir, your time is up.

-What did you say?
-Sir, chill.

I'm chilled. Come on!

Madam, if you already have it,
why do you need it again?

These are photocopies,
we need the originals.

Four checks from April 1997
with Sushil and Gopal Ansal's signatures.

They should be in the case files.

Where are the files for CRL. R. 175?

They're all mixed together.
Haven't had the time to sort them.

Yeah. There's only so much
one can do in a decade.

Okay, I'll start there,
you check that side.

-I'll call Shekhar to help.
-Yes.

So it's 4:00 a.m.,

everybody is sleeping soundly
in their rooms.

And there I am, locked out
of my hotel room, in my undies.

-What?
-Yeah!

-Oh God. Of course!
-Yeah. Drunk off my ass!

At the bloody company retreat.

-So I made a plan.
-Okay.

To somehow get down the stairs to the spa,
which might be locked after all.

And find a robe
so I can go to the Reception.

But the second I open the door,
that stupid fire alarm starts to ring.

-Then?
-Then.

The entire company comes
rushing out of their rooms half-asleep.

-And saw you in your undies.
-Saw me in my undies!

Chottu, two more.

Two more? I've already got one!

Man, drink up!

No.

And one for my friend too, okay?

Let me finish that one,
haven't even finished this one.

Khushwant!

What are you doing, man?

Good shot, man.

Come on, Khushi!

Again!

The equipment they make these days…

If you ask me, these metal rackets,
these nylon strings,

they are no substitute for sportsmanship.

You're right, Bedi.
We lost today because of the strings.

No, not because of that. I know that.

But these young boys, no respect!

I remember back in 1965, even at that age,
we were so mature. We were real men.

Finally!

You see?

We had values. Ideals.
How spectacular our division was.

And then…

Anyway, now, they've made
a movie about you guys.

About the 1971 war.

I can't wait to watch it.

Why?

What you mean by why?
Don't you want to see it?

You guys destroyed the Eastern Command.

I've heard all the stories.
It was extraordinary.

So you must have heard stories
about Asal Uttar too?

And was that how you remember it?

Of course.

Then you don't remember it at all.
I'll see you later.

Hey, finish your drink, man?

I'll see you later.

What, huh?

No, man, this will always be the case
with third world nations.

Nothing will ever change, okay?

The problem is systemic and cultural.

-You're being a little harsh.
-You made a mistake.

I made a mistake, coming back here?

-Yeah!
-What the… Why? Tell me?

Because here, you look outside the window.

-What?
-See the problems.

There's no, like, system to things.

What are you talking about system?

I mean, come on.
It's a diverse country. Yeah? It's not…

It's systemic, okay? And…

It's been going on for thousands of years.
I know that America has corruption but…

No, listen to me!

-Just because you don't--
-All I'm saying is--

-Just because you don't--
-Just because they saw you in your undies

does not mean you quit your job.

-Why you are still talking about undies?
-That's the worst…

We've moved on.

Shekhar isn't picking up.
Sometimes, I could just strangle him.

You sure there aren't more?

The inventory says 112 boxes.

I've counted them three times.
Ma'am, this is all there is.

I couldn't have photocopied
something that doesn't exist, right?

And that too twice.
Hey, these forms are missing.

And this has pages torn out, too.

See. Here is a copy of form 32.

When companies
make changes to their board,

they're required to file this.

They filed this one
when Pranav Ansal resigned.

But I've checked every box
and the original isn't here.

Wait…

When did he resign?

February 1997.

What's the date on this form?

June 16, 1997.

That's three days after the fire.

Someone has clearly
tampered with the evidence.

Who has access to these boxes?

Only the legal teams on both sides.

We need talk to Mr. Karve.
This could change everything.

Please let me do the talking, okay?

It's not enough.
This is not enough, Amrita.

Sir, how is it not enough?
We even have more, see.

These are copies of the
Fire Services' casual leave report book.

When we match it with the older copies,
two pages are missing.

From the exact same dates
the NOC permits were issued to Uphaar.

Sir, I don't think anybody knows

Mrs. Krishnamoorthy
made copies at the time.

Minutes of the board meetings,
leave reports, Ansal's signed checks,

they're all missing.

It's Section 201, sir.
Tampering with evidence.

Hold on.

You're suggesting
I should tell the court that the CBI,

our clients in this very case,
misplaced evidence in their custody?

Have you lost your mind?

But sir, this the only way to go--

Thank you, Mahesh.

But, sir, with all due respect,
how many years has this been going on?

They always find a way out.

Either the copies aren't clear enough,
or the exhibits are marked wrong,

Or Sushil is too old to come to court.

And if all else fails,
they just keep postponing our court dates.

It's been nine years, sir.

And now at last we have this.

Surely, that's more important
than our relationship with the CBI.

Noted.

Did you see my messages?

Yeah. But not until later, I was busy.

Then you've finished
your research at the library?

Yeah.

No. Well… I may need to go back.

See you in the evening?

Do you need me at the AVUT meeting?

No, we'll be fine. I'll fill you in later.

Okay.

Shekhar, I…

Hey! How are you, man?

Good, man!

-Have a seat.
-Yeah.

-I got a call from my lawyer.
-Okay.

Whisky. Large.

She got the house too.

Life begins at 50, right?

It can.

Do you have any plans for today?

Nothing I can't cancel.

Thank you.

These last few years,

I've written just about everything
he's argued in court.

Notes, briefs, memos,
research, everything.

In fact, see, I know this is my job,
this is what is expected of me.

But the minute I offer my opinion
or suggestion, he just won't listen.

I've gotten so used to it,

that when he doesn't listen,
I just add it to his briefs.

I even try to word it like he would,
so it doesn't sound like… like me.

You're capable and passionate.
And you spoke your mind.

There's nothing wrong with that.
You should be proud of yourself.

All this wouldn't have happened

if I'd just kept my mouth shut
and put it in his brief.

Anyway…

I'm reminded that
I should be grateful for all this,

I should not complain.

I sound like my father.

There's always this possibility that
you turn into one of your parents.

I've been working so much lately,

I don't remember the last time I saw them.

What time is the AVUT meeting?

We have another one hour.

Mix these together now, okay?
Like this. So it looks good, okay?

And go easy on the dark colors.

Mrs. Bedi, I was afraid
you weren't going to make it today.

-Well…
-Okay.

Is that you? It's beautiful!

Thank you.

Your sense of depth is fantastic.

But the eyes…

Simple, simple. Look,
just don't highlight this part so much.

Okay? You've already done enough.
Keep it up, Mrs. Bedi.

Shanti, bring the Tiger Balm please.

Where have you been?

That's what I've been wondering
for the past 30 years, okay?

Don't be dramatic.

Only you're allowed to do drama?

Only you've made sacrifices,
only you get to do drama.

What problem could I possibly have?

But you know? I could have done
so much more with my life.

Like what?

You know I could've been an artist?

And you think that's the same?

-Same as what?
-I lost my one shot at honor.

And I lost my only shot at happiness.

Hardeep, I wanted to paint, you know that.

I wanted to do so much.

I wanted to go to Paris.

I would've been a Major General by now.
36 years later, a Major General!

Even now when I look at my uniform,
I feel sorrow.

That uniform hasn't left
the attic in ten years!

Because it gives me sorrow!

Well, if we're keeping score,

if we hadn't sold
my grandmother's house in Shimla,

Hardeep, if we hadn't sold it,
I would've lived there.

-What house?
-I could've painted there.

You hated that house.

-You hated Shimla, whereas…
-No…

I gave you everything that
a husband should give to his wife.

-I gave you children, I gave you comfort…
-So…

I gave you money, I gave you,
on top of that, I gave you loyalty!

-So you did me a favor?
-No favor! But I did everything for you.

And what about me?
I didn't give you loyalty?

Did I say that you did not?

No, you just took that for granted,
didn't you?

Maybe I would have liked
to fuck someone else.

Have you thought of that?

Play the song, louder man!
Volume, turn the volume up.

Where the hell are you taking me?

It's a surprise, son, a surprise.

You haven't changed at all.

Why would I change, you…

You're laughing at me?

Where are my cigarettes?

Hey, you want a cigarette?

I'm having one. Where did I keep them?

They were just here.

Did you take my cigarettes, huh?
Where'd they go, man?

That month, I was working overtime
to save some money.

My wife wanted an air conditioner.

So I bought one.
And two tickets for the film.

But when the AC
was supposed to be delivered…

They were late and I had to wait.

So I sent my wife and her friend
to watch the film…

thinking that when they come home,

we'd party in the cool air
of our brand new air conditioner.

You mustn't blame Mahesh.

In his position, he has no other option.

AVUT could file a new case
directly with the High Court.

Accusing them of tampering with evidence.
You're likely to win.

But this is a crucial step.
We shouldn't rush into it.

You'd be starting over.

Neelam, what you've accomplished
with this case is extraordinary.

In a country where people
forget everything, even after ten years,

the press is still writing about Uphaar.

Neelam, this case is
much bigger than the Ansals now.

You don't want them
on Tampering of Evidence,

you want a conviction
on Public Safety charges.

It will set a new precedent.

Public Safety laws could be amended,
new laws might get written.

This is not about revenge anymore.

You have a chance to make
a real difference here.

So that what happened to you
won't ever happen to anyone else.

We want them to be punished.

But for the right reasons.

It's a choice, Neelam.

It's a whole different experience
watching on a single screen.

Dance if you want to dance,

shout if you want to shout,
live your heart out.

Whistle if you want to whistle.
Drink if you want to drink.

Throw money at the screen if you want to.

Do what you want to do,
nobody to stop you.

Join in the fun.

Multiplexes.
These multiplexes are terrible.

You tell me, would we be having
this much fun in a multiplex?

You make any noise, even laugh,
and people are like, "Shh, shh."

Where are you going? Get some popcorn.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry too.

But I'm not at all sorry that
you never… with anyone else.

I'm not dead yet.

Good one.

I asked Arora to save me
two tickets for the movie.

I was going to ask Khushi.
But… would you like to go?

I'd like that.

Thank you.

You don't think they put
Khushi in the movie, do you?

Chai for you?

We have two options before us.

First, we can stay the course
with the current case,

however difficult it gets.

Or second…

we ask Mr. Tulsi to file a new case
for Tampering of Evidence.

This is almost certain
to put them in jail.

But it weakens the cause we've taken up.

This is not my decision to make.

Let's put in to a vote.
All in favor of option one?
