All language subtitles for Kaala Paani - 1x07

The city people…

The city people… They unleashed the curse.

Look.

We must intervene,

otherwise the infected water will reach
the city people and they'll die!

We must break the water pipe tonight!

-And then warn the city people.
-We cannot do that, Enmae.

Once they know about the illness,

they'll soon discover
that we're safe from it.

And that would put us in danger.

Then… Then we move.

After breaking the water pipe,

we find a new shelter
where they can never find us.

And what if they do?

First they came for our trees,

then they came for our land

and soon they'll come for our bodies.

What will we do then?

-You mean, all four of them?
-Yes, sir.

After Mrs. Shaw, I used the AMP reserve
on four other critical patients.

And all four of them survived.

Sir, LK-37 is much more powerful
than we anticipated.

Even in trace amounts.
It's very effective against the bacteria.

With this one sample,
we can end up saving dozens of lives.

What?

If that half-blood Oraka's sample
can save so many lives,

how many can we save
with the entire Oraka population?

What?

Sir…

Sir, the donor barely survived.

If we do this to 400 Orakas, you cannot
imagine how many lives will be lost.

Lives are already being lost.
Thousands have died, lakhs might die soon.

That's why we are evacuating people, sir.

Darwin's Bay's first batch
departs for Huxley Island today.

Evacuation cannot help the infected.
We need a cure for that!

And we have it now. Sir…

We must locate their settlement
and speak to the Orakas.

They're nature-loving, non-violent people.
I'm sure they'll agree to help us.

And what if they don't?

What if they don't agree to risk theirs
and their children's lives for us?

-Then we leave them no choice.
-Careful! Careful, Shiva.

Before you say anything more,
be very careful.

Sir, he is saying
what we are all thinking.

We can save thousands of lives, sir.

But to do that,
we have to put 400 lives at risk.

The decision is yours, sir.

Will you…

flip the switch?

Are you sure
that the Japanese doctor's journal

mentioned Andamani Echinacea?

I don't remember the name,
but those leaves are hard to miss.

It also had a map
with two islands marked

-where that plant grows.
-Two?

This means, that plant grows someplace
other than Jenkins too.

Jyotsna…

Jyotsna, if we get that plant,

we can develop a risk-free and sustainable
treatment in three to four weeks.

And we can even…

End this epidemic.

I must leave for that island soon.
How soon can you bring that journal?

I've to help a child
reach the evacuation site first.

Once she's taken care of,
I'll bring the journal wherever you want.

Okay. Come with me.

The nearest beach from us is Colinpur.

Meet me there with the journal,
we'll leave from there.

Sorry, but I have to stay here.

Years ago, I had lost something.
I'm finally getting it back today.

But you don't worry.
I know someone who can help you leave.

-I'll ask him to meet us there.
-Okay.

Wait here.

It's a satellite radio.

If there's any problem,
you can reach me any time.

And, listen.

Before evacuation, the passengers
will be screened at a nearby school.

Nirmala International. I know it.

I know it really well.

Okay.

So what is Charles Darwin's theory
of biological evolution?

Who can tell me?

-Survival of the fittest.
-Correct, Jyotsna.

Fittest… Who is the fittest?

One, who through hardships,
pain, and sometimes even luck,

-can adapt themselves to change…
-Ma'am, may I come in?

And those lifeforms that never change,
their downfall is inevitable.

Like the one from our class…

Vinayak Prabhu!

How can you be late every day, Vinayak?

Sorry, Ma'am.

-My cycle--
-All right. Get in quickly.

Okay.

-Let us…
-You're late again.

I went to the bakery
to get patties for you.

They're hot.

You could've gone after school.

-Who likes cold patties…
-Vinayak.

Hey, Vinayak!

We're here!
We have to go different ways from here.

-Thank you for the lift.
-Here.

Where will you go in this condition?

There's a clinic on the way,
I can drop you there!

I've an important appointment.
And this time, I don't want to be late.

Okay. Let's go, man.

Hey, Mr. Ketan.

You're being freed from Kaala Paani today.

You should be busy packing,
what are you doing here?

I came to tell you that my dad was right.

Reading newspapers is really important.

While preparing for the Civil exams,
I used to read six newspapers a day.

In a corner of one of those papers,
I had come across an article.

Today, in a public library,

after four officers
worked for eight hours,

I finally found it again.

Atta-vous, Mr. Wani.

Attavous.

It's an Oraka term for graveyard.

For centuries,
whenever someone died of LHF,

the Orakas used to bury them
in the same graveyard.

The British called it
Bogart Hill, and today, we call it

Jenkins Bio Park, isn't it?

Lab reports confirm that the soil there
is teeming with this bacteria.

But after burying the bodies, the Orakas
used to do something else on that land.

They sowed the seeds of a plant which
they believed was nature's own antibiotic.

Andamani Echinacea.

But centuries later,
some people chose the very same land

for a project of theirs.

Not only did they
clear all vegetation on it,

but also dug out
the monster that was underneath.

The LHF bacteria.

The rain water carried it to the lake
and the pipeline brought it to our homes.

But, Mr. Wani,

you knew about this quite a while back.

Isn't it?

So, you're here to accuse us.

No, sir. I'm here to know the truth.

The truth… and you?

Really, Mr. Ketan?

Unfortunately, it's not my responsibility
to share the truth with you.

Correct.

Why would you answer me?

But just pray that no one else
asks you this question tomorrow.

What were you doing there?

What was the ATTAVUS Project?

For the inauguration
of the Jenkins pipeline,

we wanted Brandon to come over.

But ATOM's CEO is a very busy man.

And the nearest airport to Jenkins
was several hours away in Port Blair.

So we had to find a solution.

And in Jenkins itself.

A helipad?

A helipad on the banks of Jenkins Lake,

with the sun setting in the background.

When Brandon
would step out of his helicopter,

it would've made for a perfect photo op.

We had planned
for the biggest publicity event to date.

But he never came.

He sent Swasti instead, and then,

we had to abandon
the entire project midway.

No.

All of this…

just to land a bloody helicopter?

Sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Ketan,
but there is no sinister plan.

It was just a human error.

And we never thought
it'll lead to such a catastrophe.

But you knew that the land
was in the environmental buffer zone.

Despite having thousands of acres of land,
why'd you encroach that one acre area?

Because we could.

We could and therefore, we did.

Every other day there's news

that plastic in the ocean is killing
the dolphins, is killing the turtles.

What do you think?

Those who litter the beaches
with plastic wanna kill those animals? No!

They do it because they can. That's it!

And what environmental buffer zone
are you talking about, Mr. Ketan?

Where you stand today
used to be a jungle 25 years ago.

Every big city on earth is built
on the graveyard of jungles, Mr. Ketan.

And people like us help build them!

Even I can blame it
all on you, Mr. Ketan.

Had you not proved Dr. Singh wrong,

this disease
would've never reached our homes.

But, no, you worked
in your interest and we did in ours.

And none of that makes us evil,
it just makes us…

It makes us… human!

And I really believe, Mr. Ketan,

you'll continue to work
in your interest.

The details of ATTAVUS Project
won't ever leave this room,

because your ticket
out of this place is in my hands.

And trust me, Mr. Ketan,
I can cancel it anytime.

Sir, they're here.

Take them to my office.

Brother.

Look, who's here to see you.

He's thanking you.

He says, because of you,
he can meet his son again one day.

Not one day, today.

I separated a dad from his kids.

Life has given me a second chance.

I… I'll help him meet his children…

Today.

With the recent developments,

our researchers
not only need new resources,

but a safe space as well.

And that's why we're proposing
to open a new research center for LHF

at Huxley Island.

Sir…

it'll be a great honor
for us to be working with you,

but if an antidote is developed there,

ATOM should get its patent rights,

for perpetuity.

I think it is too early to--

That can be arranged.

Then I've only one concern.

LK-37,

how do we procure that?

Sir, there's a plant
which might have this peptide.

Come on, Mr. Ketan, that plant is a myth.

No one has even seen it in years.

Sir, the only place where this peptide
remains is inside the Orakas.

You don't need to worry about LK-37.

-We'll arrange it for you.
-Fine.

Then all we need
is someone to head the research team.

And going by her recent achievements,

I think Dr. Gagra
is the best candidate, isn't it?

Mr. Ketan, it'll be of great help to us
if you could escort the doctor here.

We would like to make sure
that in her journey to Huxley,

she faces no inconvenience.

Great.

Kaddu!

-Kaddu!
-Why did you take off the mask? Wear it!

Don't scream!

Move.

-What's going on? Please tell me.
-We'll tell you.

What's going on?
Listen, please. Please tell me.

-Please, tell me. What's going on?
-Come. Come with me. We'll tell you.

Sir, I'm looking for my daughter.

-Vidisha Savla.
-Unbutton your shirt.

Unbutton your shirt.

Turn around.

Okay, clear.

-Go there.
-Please come.

Next!

Show your hand.

Until you board the ship,
don't take this band off.

-You won't be allowed without it.
-Sir, I have a six-year-old daughter.

Please check in the verification area.
Move. Next.

1086! Token number 1086!

Please come. Register your token number.

Listen carefully, only token number 1201
to 1300 should enter the waiting area.

The school building
is not a part of the containment area.

So please do not go there.

Kindly avoid crowding.

Everyone will be registered,
please do not worry.

What do you mean locals' quota is over?

Is this disease
only affecting the tourists?

Sir, there's limited capacity.

Try to understand. Tourists' families
are given first preference.

Please leave. Take them away!

Did you put our names in waiting?

We also have a token.

It's not your turn yet, wait outside.

Sir, my daughter should be here.
Please let me look for her once.

You'll be sent in only as per
your token number. Please wait there.

Just one minute, sir.
You are not understanding.

You wait there. Please.

-Step back.
-Wait.

-Please come in line.
-Hey, catch him.

Please come one by one. No, not like this.

-Come one by one. You come.
-Hey, where are you going?

-Come one by one. You come.
-Hey, stop!

-Hey, stop!
-Come as per your token number.

-Stop!
-If you don't come

as per your token-- Hey, who is he?

-Hey!
-Kaddu!

Kaddu!

-Dad is here!
-Mic, please!

-Dad is here. Kaddu! I'm here, darling.
-Who are you? Policeman, take him away!

I am here. Your dad is here, my child.

-Take him away! Who is this?
-What are you doing?

Vidisha Savla. She's just six years old!

I'm her dad!

Has anyone seen her?
Has anyone seen my six-year-old daughter?

Please…

My little daughter…

Let him go, man. He lost his kid.

Has anyone seen her? Kaddu…

Anyone? My daughter…

-She's only six…
-Dad.

Dad.

Kaddu!

Dad!

Sorry, my child. Dad left you here.

But I'll never go away again. Never!

I was so brave, Dad.
At times, I got scared.

But I cried only three times.

Okay…

Okay, four times.

Oh, It's okay, my child.

I have something for you, darling.

Here.

Where's Mom, Dad?
And brother came to see you too, right?

He did, darling.

But both of them
have gotten a transfer from here.

Like, Shekhar uncle
got a transfer from Bokaro? Like that?

Yeah. Just like that.

But your mom and brother
have gotten a transfer really far away.

Now it's just the two of us, darling.

It'll take us a while to meet them.

Now it's just the two of us. Just…

Dad, Jyotsna Miss.

Madam, you are a goddess.

-Please get up.
-You're a goddess.

You're a goddess.

Thank you for saving my daughter.

I'm sorry.

Parth…

I know.

But for taking care of my son
in his last days…

Kaddu.

I have to go
and take care of something urgent.

I don't know when I'll see you next,

but always be a brave girl, okay?

And when you feel scared,
you know what to do, right?

You know, I used to think
that Divya Miss is my favorite teacher.

But now if someone asks me,

I'll tell them
that Jyotsna Miss is my favorite.

Have you sneaked in before like this?

No one ever touches
an essential goods vehicle.

With right contacts and the right price,
you can go anywhere.

What is happening?

I told you before, right?
Don't you remember?

What are you doing?

Orakas communicate
not just with words, but signs as well.

While hunting in the jungle,
they talk without making a sound.

Like…

This means, run.

This means, wait.

This means, integrate!

-What does that mean?
-It means, be one with the nature.

Hide in the jungle in such a way

that even the most sharp-eyed animal
is unable to spot you.

Chiru…

The hospital had alerted us that
one of their Oraka patients is missing.

But we found not one, but two Orakas.

Thank you, sir.
Thank you for believing in me.

And I was right, sir.
Not only was the peptide effective,

but I also located the plant.

Okay.

But the information
in that journal is from 1940s.

What if the plant is really extinct?

I'll know that
only once I reach that island.

But, Ritu, ATOM wants you
to accompany them to Huxley Island.

Who cares what they want?

Sir, I should get going.
That girl will reach Colinpur soon.

And for taking care of Mister, thank you.

Wait.

If you don't mind, I can drop you there.

"Veenu, in the next few weeks,
things might start getting better."

"And then,

I want to stay here with you."

No, no.

"I mean, let's have a dinner."

Yeah, this is okay.

"Let's have dinner and see where it goes."

I can't do it.

"Veenu…"

"I have something to tell you.

Dad has been transferred
to the mainland.

I'm leaving, Veenu.

Sorry, I didn't tell you sooner…"

No.

"Really sorry, I didn't tell you sooner."

-Good morning, ma'am.
-Sit down! How's everybody doing?

-Good, ma'am!
-Good, okay.

So today's class,

we are going to be putting
Darwin's theory to test!

Okay?

So what do we do?
We'll plant seeds in groups of two.

Then as long as we're in this school,
two, three, four years,

we'll keep tracking
which plant remains "fittest to survive."

-Is that clear?
-Ma'am, may I come in?

You're late again!

Today, we will learn…

I told you I wanted to talk
during the lunch break.

I had forgotten the seeds.
So I sneaked out and got some from home.

I brought them.

Look. Marigold seeds.

Everyone is planting marigold and rose.

How will we know which plant is ours?

-That's why I got these.
-What seeds are these?

Mom said they're from a special plant.

But she never told me which plant it is.

Idiot, when you don't even know
the name of the plant,

how will we know which plant is ours?

Here, I named it.
A name both of us will never forget.

And then you had to convince Niyati ma'am

that in your grandpa's village,
blue Jyotsna flowers bloom.

Wow! So, I'm being made fun
of even on emergency broadcast.

Is this why the doctor
gave you this device?

Sorry. You are right.

-I better pick up pace.
-Listen, I'll be there soon.

Please don't be late.

Else, this time,
I'll make you wait for 17 years.

We won't wait this time, Veenu.

Actually, I…

What?

Nothing. I'll tell you when we meet.

See you soon.

Sir, I think we left
the road to Colinpur behind us.

We…

We're not going to Colinpur, right?

I'm sorry, Ritu.

If you leave, then I lose
a chance to leave this place.

Sir…

-This is not who you are.
-This is exactly who I am!

The Ketan you know
is not the person I am.

But, sir, today if you don't become
the person I've known…

the people here will never find hope.

Sir, please.

Sir, we can save thousands of lives.

Please let me go.

Sir, please let me go.

Sir, ATOM Paradise
is right around the corner.

If we go any further,

-we can't turn back.
-Please, let me go.

I can't turn back now.

Start the car.

Sir,

this is our last chance.

If we allow that Oraka to return,
we'll never find their new settlement.

Shiva, he just wants to go home!

We have no reason
to detain or interrogate him.

We have thousands of reasons, sir,

and we can prevent them
from reaching a cemetery.

But for that, I can't harm
a peaceful community, okay?

Sir, I know the Orakas
saved you from death.

Like you, no good person
would wish the slightest harm on them.

But right now, you have to choose.

Either you can be a good person,

or a true leader.

You people… can go.

Looks like LG sir has
a soft corner for you Orakas.

Thanks, brother.
Say also thanks to LG brother.

Let's go.

Mr. Ketan, right on time.
We were just about to leave.

Why are you sitting all alone?

You know, Mr. Wani…

I never believed
in creating an impression.

What others thought of me,
never really bothered me.

Where is Dr. Gagra?

But why do I care so much
about what she thinks of me?

Mr. Ketan, where is Dr. Gagra?

I'm getting to that.
Just let me set some context first.

Why is it that I want her to like me?

Like, I was bringing her here…

but she didn't want to come.

So I let her go.

Thank you.

What? We fought with the administration,

we insisted that your name
must be in the evacuee list.

I know.

Trust me, if you don't leave today,
no one is gonna miss you on that ship.

I know, Mr. Wani, I know!
Don't you think I know? I know.

Then tell us, where is she?
We'll go and get her.

Mr. Ketan, you know
we need her with us at Huxley.

-Mr. Ketan--
-I'm just so furious at myself!

Despite ruining everything
I worked for… Idiot!

I… I want to protect her.
But I don't know why!

Mr. Wani, I know,
but I won't tell you and I don't know why!

And I don't know why!

I don't know why! I can't understand…

Shit, shit!

Shit!

Am I… Am I in love or something?

What are you doing, Mr. Ketan?

The door to get back home
is wide open, right in front of you,

and you're choosing to close it?

I don't know. I don't know, Mr. Wani.

All I know is

that Brazilian ant
must feel the exact same way.

You know, Mr. Ketan,
we don't take "no" for an answer.

If you won't tell us,
we'll have to make you talk.

Right.

I definitely deserve it.

Okay, Kanchan darling.

Start.

-Are you looking for this?
-Thank you, Jyotsna Miss.

Thank God I didn't go very far,

or else you would've lost marks
for holiday homework.

Yes, I would've lost marks.
Then I would've failed.

Divya Miss would've scolded me.
Thank you, Jyotsna Miss.

Look, how many leaves I have in this.

I'm yet to finish it though.

Jyotsna Miss, you know…

-You won't tell anyone, right?
-I won't.

Ruby Rhino told me many secrets.

-Really?
-Yes.

Madam, we're not allowed
to be here. Why did you…

What secrets did Ruby tell you?

All of Ruby's friends were left back home.
She really misses her friends.

She's really sad
and she said that till her friends return,

she won't eat or drink or play with me.

Okay, you help Ruby cheer up,
I'll be back soon, okay?

This is…

But why didn't it get detected
during the screening?

I think due to her epilepsy medication,
the symptoms developed late.

It's one of the rarest of rare cases,
but she's definitely infected.

Mr. Santosh,
we have to inform the authorities.

Kaddu…

she can't leave this place.

She can't leave?

But, madam, the island will have
the right facilities, medical help,

-they will have camps. Maybe a doctor…
-Sir…

That island is a safe space

where only healthy,
non-infected people can go.

She will become infectious
over the next few days.

If she goes there,
the disease will spread there as well.

So she must remain here.

But don't worry,
I'll figure out something.

Kaddu, can I take your green band?

I'll get you a pink band
like Ruby Rhino's, okay?

I was supposed to be on bed rest,
why are you walking so slow?

Sorry, brother, I'm not used to this.

What happened?

Hey, when did this happen?

Why didn't you tell us sooner?

-I'm okay, brother.
-What did he say?

He's asking me to go back.

He's right. You can't walk all the way.

-I'm okay, Chiru brother, I--
-Listen to me, Nandan.

You've already done a lot for strangers.

-I can walk, Chiru brother.
-How will you?

-But he…
-Don't worry about him. I'm with him.

I will miss you, Enmae brother.

I'll miss you too, Chiru brother.

If you were a girl, on the day of Rakhi,
you would've gone crazy.

Bye.

We…

What's the matter?

Thank you, Parvez.

Madam, please leave this place
as soon as you can.

They must be looking for you.

Dr. Gagra. Dr. Gagra, this is Jyotsna.

-Are you there, Dr. Gagra?
-Yes, Jyotsna.

I just arrived here. Where are you?

Actually, there's been a major problem.

I won't be able to come.

But, Jyotsna, how will I reach
the island without your help?

I know. That's why I contacted you.

I can at least give you the name
and coordinates of the island.

But…

Fine.

For now, even that's fine. One second.

Okay, tell me.

That island is…

-Dr. Gagra.
-Yeah?

I'll call you right back.

What happened? Did you inform them?

Please let her leave this place, madam.

I came here
and lost everything. Everything.

All I have is my daughter now.

I can't lose her.

Mr. Santosh, nothing will happen
to Kaddu. We won't allow it.

I'll be with you every step of the way.

-But Kaddu can't leave.
-She'll die here, madam.

There, she might be saved by a miracle.
But who will save her here? Nobody can!

No! We have a doctor here

-and in a few weeks, she…
-Weeks! Kaddu has ten days at best.

Please let her leave.

Mr. Santosh, your daughter
has a piece of my heart.

Even I don't want anything
to happen to her.

But, for her, we can't risk
the lives of so many people.

Madam, please! Please.

-No, Mr. Santosh!
-I don't have anything, madam!

No, Mr. Santosh,
it's not possible! It's not.

She's all I have.

If you can't inform
the authorities, then I'll have to.

Dad?

Jyotsna Miss?

What…

Can you hear

The whispering tree?

Can you hear

The whistling bee?

The words with wings

The river that sings

Are just a few things

That I send for you

Across space

Across time

The cloud with rains

The moon that shines

Are just a few things

That I send for you

Across space…

Across time…

Jyotsna.

Sindhu? Jyotsna, I've reached.

I told you I won't be late this time.

Jyotsna.

I reached before time, Jyotsna. Jyot…

Did you hear that?

Sir, all the information you wanted about
CSF extraction and peptide sequencing,

has been complied in this.

Pardon me for asking, sir,
but if we are not pursuing the Orakas,

then why are you reading up on this?

Do you know, doctor,

what's the core value
of every soldier in the Indian military?

Dharma.

Our culture teaches us
that in the battleground,

even when we are fighting against our own,

every soldier must act
according to his dharma.

I need this information because

I've followed my dharma as well.

A few hours ago, I made a decision.

A decision that would
change the fate of these islands

forever.

No.

No, sir, this…
This is a huge mistake, sir.

Irrespective of how big
or small the number is,

we can't choose between human lives!

And here, we're talking about
an indigenous tribal community

which can't even defend itself.

An entire culture will perish, sir!

Of all the people… you…

-How can you do this, sir?
-I couldn't!

But I had to. I had to change.

So that thousands of people could survive,

their leader had to evolve.

Because evolution is the price

that every species
has paid in order to survive.

Including us, humans.

Humans are a product of evolution.

If life hadn't moved from water
to land at the right time,

humankind wouldn't exist today.

Mass extinction events
wiped out the biggest of animals.

But even in those circumstances,

our ancestors held their ground.

Had they failed to survive,

humankind wouldn't exist today.

Masala Jazz.

Hey, Kanchan!

You hit like a girl, man.

Jyotsna, come in! Come in, Jyotsna!

Our ancestors

were neither bigger than the animals
nor were they stronger.

Neither could they fly nor run too fast.

Stop!

All they had was intelligence.

Hey, stop!

And each other.

Don't touch the boat!

Did Jyotsna send you here?

Had they not learned to unite
and fight the others,

humankind wouldn't exist today.

And when we needed
our hands to wield the tools,

if we hadn't learned
to stand on our two feet,

humankind wouldn't exist today.

Please come outside.

We did it, Shiva. 5,000 healthy people.

Five thousand people
forever saved from the infection.

Thank you.

Sir, where's your band?

And yours, sir?

Thank you. You may go.

-Come.
-Take it easy.

Hello, Captain.

Whether it's a human or a cockroach,
a dinosaur or bacteria,

there's a common factor amongst them.

Nature gave them all a chance to evolve.

And those who couldn't,
were considered weak,

and got wiped out by nature.

Do you know where we need to go?

Not exactly, but I have an idea.

But I have no idea
if the thing you are looking for

is still alive or is extinct forever.

Dad, look, I finished my homework.

And those who could adapt
to the situation…

they were considered to be the fittest.

And the fittest always survive.

And maybe that's why
the Orakas are in danger today.

Because they could never evolve.

Maybe that's why…

they are destined
to lose the battle of survival.

Look towards that side. Look carefully.

No one in this house as well?

-Anything in there?
-No, sir. Nothing is here.

Check over there.
Check every nook and corner.

Towards that side.

Sir, we checked everywhere,
there's no one here.

Where are your people?

Where is everyone?

Hey, there!

Get him!

Bring him here!

He ran away. Catch him!

Hey! Stop!

-Hey, stop!
-Go towards that side.

Catch him! Catch him!
Don't let him run away!

No one will fire.

-Hey, where is he?
-I don't know where he went.

Where has he gone?

In the jungle. In the jungle.
Look in the jungle.

We can't see him.

-Where has he disappeared?
-Where did he go? Where has he gone?

Which way did he go?

Hey! Catch them!

And what if they do?

First, they came for our trees,

then they came for our land,

and soon they'll come for our bodies.

What will we do then?

Stay back!

Stay back!

Stay back or we'll shoot!

We would push them against the wall.

A wall they can never climb over.

And then?

Then…

Then we fight!
