And every book on the topic will say,

"A leader
always makes the right decision."

But "right decision"

is a concept that works only on paper.

In real life,
you will face many challenges

that have no right decisions.

For example, let's consider
the classic trolley problem.

Five rail workers are working on a track.

They have their headphones on.

That's why they can't hear
the supersonic train

that's hurtling towards them.

A collision means the death of all five.

But…

you're sitting in the control room.

And in front of you is a switch.

If you flip the switch,

the train will divert
and go onto a different track.

But…

even on that track
there is one person at work.

Destiny wanted five lives.

But for that to change,

you must take one life
with your own hands.

So the question is…

"How many of you would flip the switch?"

The gentleman in green.

What makes you think taking this one life
is the right decision?

Because five lives are
more valuable than one life.

So I would flip the switch any day.

Okay.

The young man next to you.
Do you know each other?

Yes, sir. He's my son.

So what happens

if you look out of your
control room to see

your son working on the other track?

What about that day?

Would you still flip the switch?

To save five lives,

would you kill your own child?

Go on, he's looking at you.

No, sir.

Please sit.

So when it comes to choosing
between human lives,

there are no right decisions.

There are wrong decisions,
and lesser wrong decisions.

Forget about it being a relative.

Even if it's your
favorite actor, cricketer,

or even Chief Secretary Bhowmik,
you would never touch the switch.

Sir, why throw me on the tracks?

I know, I know. All that I'm saying is

real life problems are far more complex.

Unlike films, there's no right or wrong,

good or bad, hero or villain here.

Excuse me, sir.

Sir, if you were in this situation,
what would you do?

If I was in this situation, then--

Sir, SP sir is here. He wants to talk.

Are you a doctor?

Yes, I mean, I have a PhD,
but right now I'm researching--

I mean, do you work here?

I'm asking because
Dr. Shashi has called all medical staff

for an emergency meeting.

I know a lot of you
have patients waiting, but…

sharing this is important.

I've just been informed that Dr. Singh,

Soudamini,

she's no more.

A few hours ago…

A few hours ago,
her body was discovered near Jenkins Lake.

The autopsy hasn't been done yet,
but it looks like an accident.

She doesn't have any immediate family,

so the hospital
will perform her last rites.

That's all.

Sir!

Sir, she knew it. She knew it, sir.

The mystery disease
that she was talking about,

she knew what caused it.

We have been through this, Ritu.
It was alcohol poisoning.

No, no, sir. It's the water.

It's the water, sir.
That's why she was at Jenkins Lake.

It's the source
of a water-borne infection.

Sir, look at this. All her patients,

all eleven of them
came in contact with this lake.

Out of them,
the one we discharged yesterday,

he was found dead this morning.

I couldn't reach the others,
but I think that--

That…

That explains it.

Explains what?

Soudamini's body was found
near a small settlement.

When the officials
got there for questioning,

they found the entire settlement…

dead.

How many?

Latest count says 22.

All the deaths occurred
in the last 12 to 24 hours.

That's why they couldn't even
inform any outsiders.

Sir…

The main source of water
in Jenkins is this lake.

We need to inform the people there.

Four hundred lives are at risk.

Not 400.

Half a million.

What's a new girl doing here
in the middle of the term?

What is this?

-Sir, map of India?
-Are you sure?

This is the map of India?

That's what we learnt in Class IV.

Is there anyone in the class who knows
what the complete map of India looks like?

Aniruddh.

Correct.

This 32 lakh-square-kilometer land mass
is not the only land that makes up India.

This plus this…

plus this…

equals…

India.

And this is not a small mistake.

Because lakhs of Indians
live on these islands.

And one of them is in our class today.

Please introduce yourself?

Hi, everyone.

My name is Jyotsna Dey.
And I'm from Port Blair.

GNM?

You want to do GNM
after high school?

Yeah, and then DNP.

Why?

No, it's just that when you
ask someone their ambition,

they usually say
they want to pursue IIT, IAS or MBA.

Like, even I want to be a doctor, but…

But who wants to be a nurse?

No…

Yes.

Actually the part of healthcare
that interests me is "care."

I feel like doctors diagnose diseases,

suggest a line of treatment
and then move on to the next patient.

But a nurse stays with the patient
till they've recovered completely.

Maybe that's why when someone is sick,

you don't doctor them,

you nurse them back to health.

And that's who I want to be.

Amen!

Your wish shall be granted.

You have received Anni's blessing.

What have I received?

Anni! Anni's blessing!

It makes all your dreams come true.

You just have to pay for it
by being a true friend to Anni.

And what if someone ends the friendship?

Then they shall be sturck by Anni's curse!

Jyotsna?

You dozed off at 4:00 a.m.

It's hot.

I still can't believe you're selling
your family heritage to a stranger.

Here.

My realtor's card is in the back section.

Call him and make a better offer.

And you can keep my heritage.

You know I can't even afford
your bathroom on my income, right?

Yes, but…

if I had a stable job as a Head Nurse
at a private hospital, then an EMI…

Your card has expired.

Why didn't you renew it?

-It's been a while.
-Yes, 'cause…

a few years ago I quit.

I'm no longer in healthcare.

But this was your dream
since kindergarten.

Why did you quit nursing?

Because…

Because I was struck by Anni's curse.

Sir, 70% of Port Blair's water
comes from this pipeline.

We have a potential epidemic at our hands

and the most qualified person
to stop this outbreak…

is no longer with us.

Look…

what happened with Dr. Singh
was really very tragic.

But how confident are you that this
will turn into a major health crisis?

Meaning?

Meaning, what is the logic
behind this panic?

You say that the water has bacteria.

I believe you.

If it's just a bacteria,
it can easily be killed by antibiotics.

Sir, that's what
I'm trying to explain to you,

that this is a superbug.

It has developed antibiotic resistance.

We have the reports
of all of Soudamini's patients.

No broad-spectrum antibiotic
had any effect on this bacteria.

But then, how did the patients recover?

Sir, that's because this disease
mimics the pattern of Leptospirosis.

But it also has pulmonary manifestations.

One minute, one minute.

Hindi, English, and Bengali
are the three languages I know.

Use any one of those, please.

Sir.

We definitely need to do more tests.

But it looks like this disease
has two stages.

Stage one,

apart from the black patches on the neck,

the patient experiences symptoms
such as fever, headache, dry throat.

Then after some time,
these symptoms subside

and the patient starts to feel
as if they are recovering.

But the bacteria
is still there in the system.

Hiding. Waiting.

Waiting for…

-Waiting for…
-An ambush.

An ambush.

Stage two,

the immune system
is completely ambushed by the bacteria.

The patient experiences hiccups.

And then lungs, liver, kidneys…
multiple organ failure.

And in most of the cases,

within a few hours…

death.

This disease
doesn't just spread through water,

but also through the water droplets
of an infected person.

And sir, with this tourist festival…

we have no estimate as to how many
people are infected right now.

What caused this?

Why now?

We don't know, sir.

All we know is
Soudamini's hunch was right.

And at least
someone decided to follow up on it.

She has done all the research, sir.

Who are you?

Sir, Ritu Gagra.

I'm a research fellow at NICD, Bangalore.

See, this is the problem, Dr. Mahajan.

You want us to cancel everything

because some junior fellow
has read four online articles?

I'm asking you again.

How confident are you?

Sir, she may be a junior,

but first and foremost, she's a scientist.

She has presented her research
and scientific evidence to you.

Technically, I should be the one
asking you the question…

How confident are you?

Okay. Shiva.
Kill the Jenkins pipeline immediately.

How soon can we initiate
the health emergency protocol?

Within the hour, sir. All health workers
in Port Blair, active or retired,

will receive a medical emergency SOS.

Okay. Next, shut down
the airport and the docks.

Enforce pocket lockdowns
as soon as possible.

Dr. Mahajan, can we do rapid-tests
for this disease?

Now that we know what we're looking for,
we might be able to.

Also, the black patches on the neck,
they're the obvious symptoms.

Right.

Mr. Bhowmik.

Work with Dr. Mahajan.

And start isolating
as many non-infected as you can.

And, gentlemen, the most important thing.

Whatever has been discussed here
should not go out of this room.

Tell your subordinates
all of this is just a drill.

But, sir,

people need to know that there's a cris--

One last thing, Dr. Mahajan.

This disease. What do we call it?

Sir, it looks like a variant
of Leptospiral Hemorrhagic Fever.

So we can call it LHF.

LHF-27.

I hate it when disease names
have numbers in them.

You're not getting it.
The crocodiles are leaving.

Okay, but why are you leaving?

Because the crocodiles are leaving.

Salt-water crocodiles
don't abandon their habitat and leave.

Something is happening on Tulip Island.
My agency is sending me to document it.

Veenu, I'll bash your head in.

I cancelled my flight because of you!
And now you're leaving!

But I'll be back by tomorrow.

And you can stay an extra day.

This is too much.

But if you tell me the truth, I'll stay.

Tell me?

What made you quit nursing?

Not the same thing again.

I told you, there was no specific reason.

I just got bored. That's it.

Aunty, please make him understand.

I don't know
why he's poking and prodding me.

Veenu, don't stress her out. Go bathe.

The water has stopped,
fill a bucket from Krishnan's tube-well.

Go.

-I will find out.
-Go.

What is this?

His late father was a forest guard.

Thanks to him

I met some folks from the Oraka tribe.

One of them entrusted this to me.

Insignia of the Orakas. It's their symbol.

You know, the 2004 tsunami
wreaked havoc in the Andamans.

But no Oraka was harmed from it.
Not even a scratch.

Really? How?

A few days before the tsunami hit,

their entire settlement
left the jungle for a higher ground.

As if they already knew
something bad was about to happen.

How would they have known?

When I asked the same question
to their chief,

he gave me a one-word answer.

Tinnotu.

Tinnotu?

Meaning?

There is no exact word for it
in any of our languages.

But it means…

understanding something so deeply,

that you can sense
even the slightest discomfort in it.

To understand someone's pain,

it's not important
for them to speak out loud.

The ones who love you

can always sense your feelings.

Aunty, how far is Marine Hill from here?

All of you are individually accountable
for the lockdowns in your area.

And I'll need hourly updates
from each one of you.

Did you hear what sir said?

He wants hourly updates.

And I'll need them
every half an hour. Okay?

Sorry, sir, please continue.

And please remember,

this might just be a drill,
but we cannot afford any lapses.

I don't want to see anyone slacking!

The public
should not face any inconvenience.

Okay?

Sir, anything else?

Long live India.

Hand it over, quick. Sir!

Sir.

What's wrong, sir?

You met LG sir without me today.

Since you're so busy
meeting people in high towers,

I thought you should do
some fieldwork for a change.

Good call, sir.
In fact, I was longing for it.

But, sir, what I don't get is

why do a lockdown drill
in the middle of Swaraj Mahotsav?

Didn't we do
the same drill two months ago?

If you're having trouble following
direct orders, Ketan, let me know.

Someone else will cover your area.

No, sir. I'm fully committed.

Just that in these instructions,

the end time of the drill
is never mentioned.

Must be an oversight, right?

Sir.

You and I both know this is not a drill.

Maybe LG sir wants to keep it under wraps.

But at the end of the day,
he's a politician sitting on a chair.

It's people like us
who handle the situation on the ground.

Don't you think we deserve
to see the full picture?

Must feel terrible, right, Ketan?

It's easier to trust a politician
than to trust you.

Sir, you don't need to trust me
to agree with me.

I heard about Dr. Singh.

Such sad news.

But she shouldn't have taken
such a big risk alone

without informing her team at all.

I just hope that lack of trust
or lack of information

doesn't lead to another accident.

Parvez. Start the car.

-Where, sir?
-Marine Hill.

-Where in Marine Hill?
-Just go, man.

Ladies and gentlemen,

here, at the heart of Marine Hill,

ATOM welcomes you
to Swaraj Mahotsav, 2027!

Experience a potpourri of cultures
of all Indian states

that's on the other side of Bay of Bengal.

Buy whatever you want.

Yes, yes. Okay.

Okay, children, who's up for popcorn?

I'll get what Parth is getting.

-Okay, Parth, which popcorn flavor?
-Cheese caramel.

One cheese caramel.

The grand carnival extends all the way
to Netaji Indoor Stadium,

where the dance festival
is just about to conclude.

For any queries, please talk
to your nearby ATOM coordinator.

All of you can enjoy different delicacies
in this Swaraj Mahotsav, 2027.

We have it all here.

From kids to grandparents,
everybody can enjoy this mahotsav.

Where did you go?

What are you doing?
Why did you split from the group?

Divya Miss has given me homework.

Do your homework later. Here. Hold it.

Yes, Dad, both of us are fine.
Don't call me every 15 minutes.

Fifteen minutes? It's been two hours, son.

I told you we shouldn't disturb them.

I need to hear it. Ask him.

Mom was asking, son.
Did you give Kaddu her medicine?

Yes, Dad, I did.

Guchhu, do you know
the scenic beauty you are missing?

These guys showed us
the most beautiful beaches.

First, we saw Bharatpur Beach,

we're now at Lakshmanpur
and next we'll go to Sitapur.

It's just that your mom's new shoes
got some sand in them.

Dad, I'll call you later.

Do you guys need anything else?

Uncle, you guys go on ahead.

I have to pop inside for a bit.

But we just came from there, son.

Yeah, but Dad wants me to click a picture
of Kaddu with the Ruby Rhino mascot.

Bro, please, hurry!

Yes, so…

-Meet back here in half an hour?
-Bro, let's go!

Yes. Okay?

Okay, but if you need anything, call.

-Yes, of course.
-Okay.

-Come on.
-Don't let go of her hand!

Yes, Uncle!

Okay, but you've quit your job, though?

Then why are you going?

According to the post-COVID guidelines,
I have to report.

And also, out of curiosity.

I want to see why they sent out
this sudden SOS.

This is Chiru's other taxi.

I don't know about tourists,
but it's quite useful for grocery runs.

Get in.

I can't…

It's a used car,
but it's not that bad. Come on.

What's wrong?

Jyotsna?

Jyotsna!

Are you okay? Jyotsna?

I'll go get some water.

I believe you ate it.

What are you saying?

I don't care.
I'm paying full price.

I want fried pancakes for lunch.

You're not getting fried pancakes.

Come on, raise your shirt.

You need such a heavy dose
of insulin every day.

But you can't stay away
from sweets, can you?

A life without sugar
is not a life worth living.

Also,

now I feel totally fine.

The…

The election is around the corner.

Ask Dr. Aniruddh to discharge me, please?

Jagtap sir, when your reports
tell me the same thing as you,

I will discharge you. Promise. Okay?

Purva, make sure sir eats his lunch. Okay?

Jyotsna, come here a minute.

I need 20 minutes from you.

Anni, don't tell me.
You forgot your anniversary again?

-You need me to select a gift for Preeti?
-It's not that, dude.

She's waiting for you downstairs.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God! When did you get it?

-Last evening--
-Why didn't you say anything?

It wouldn't be a surprise then, Sherlock.

Wait, wait.

Get in!

-Congratulations, Anni.
-Thank you.

I wanted to show it
to my best friend first.

How long has it been since you slept?

Look, don't stress about the beds so much.

Or we'll have to put you
on one too. Understand?

We're understaffed.
Someone has to work overtime.

-Come on. Time to go back.
-Hold on.

There's still five minutes left.

And, that's about how long it takes
to drive around the hospital block.

Easy, Jyotsna.

It's a parking lot, not a race-track!

Don't worry, Anni. If anything happens,
the responsibility is all yours.

How much further is Marine Hill?

It's close by. Towards the left.

You carry on then, I'll walk.

Sure? Man, ideally I'd love to drop you,

but I'm getting back-to-back messages
and they've canceled all evening ferries.

-So now--
-You go. I'll find my way.

Bye.

Bye.

Sir, can you move a little?

Veenu?

Whatever happened outside
your house this morning--

It's okay.

You don't have to explain
if you don't want to.

No.

I want to.

A few years ago…

something happened.

After that day,

forget driving,
I can't even sit inside a car.

Everything's not totally perfect, Veenu.

I'm neither engaged nor working.

Veenu, I haven't told this to anyone.

But I will tell you.

Maybe you'll judge me.

-But I will tell you anyway.
-Jyotsna, listen.

I will come back tomorrow
and listen to everything you want to say.

And after that,
we'll play our badminton match as usual.

The only thing I'll judge
will be your poor badminton skills.

Okay?

Veenu, don't be late this time.

Bye.

I was looking for you.

-Are you okay?
-Yes, sir. I…

just wanted to see her once.

Come. Let's go.

Sir?

-Can I ask you something?
-Yeah?

Sir,

Soudamini ma'am… she…

died. Trying to find the truth.

I don't understand why
we're hiding the truth from people.

Ritu, LG sir is doing
everything that is possible.

Medical camps have been set up,
testing has begun.

We're restricting movement--

Sir, shouldn't public awareness
be our top priority right now?

People deserve to know
that their lives are at risk.

Sir.

Dr. Khare, my professor at NICD,

he's very well connected,
both with the media and the government.

We should inform the mainland
as soon as possible.

We need as much help as we can get.

Know this about me, Ritu.

I stand by the orders
that are given to me,

and I expect all my teammates
to do the same.

You know,

in this week you're the second person
I'm saying this to.

Work with me.

Please.

The person you are calling is not--

Hey, sand artist.

Did Jameel brother tell you
where the stuff has to be delivered?

You freaking camel.

You've had 11,12 liters
since this morning!

Spectators making their way
into the Netaji Indoor Stadium

are requested to move
towards the main stage.

Bro, look, it's Ruby Rhino!

-Bro, look!
-Yes, yes.

Look, Kanchan.
It is vital that I meet Wani.

What's your problem with me, Kanchan?

This is my problem.

My name is Rajbir.

That's the name your parents gave you.

But that smile of yours

and that luscious hair

reminds me of my ex.

Which is why, Kanchan.

Please let me go, baby.

Okay, I'm on duty, Kanchan.

If you touch me again,
it won't end well for you.

Spectators making their way
into the Netaji Indoor Stadium

are requested to move
towards the main stage.

Because in the next few minutes,

the children
of Nirmala International School

will present before you the tale
of the Cellular Jail of the Andamans,

the Great Tale of Kaala Paani!

He's Gandhi ji. And you?

-Okay two lines, quickly!
-Okay, ma'am.

-Excuse me.
-Stand in place.

-Excuse me?
-Yes?

-Do you work for ATOM?
-Yes?

Ketan Kamat, SDPO, South Andaman.

I have some urgent business
with your boss, Saurabh Wani.

I want you to go inside and
ask him to call me right away.

-And what's this about?
-He would know.

Oops! Sorry, sorry…

So sorry.

Can I buy you… I mean,
let me pay for your coffee.

-Sorry. Hand it over. Give it to me.
-The tale of the Cellular Jail of Andaman,

the Great Tale of Kaala Paani!

Are you from the Singapore office?

Yeah.

Your CEO, Mr. Brandon Shaw,
sits there, right?

I thought he was coming here
to inaugurate the festival.

Yeah, but something came up on priority.

Of course.

If I had $62 billion,

then watching "The Great Tale of Kaala
Paani" wouldn't be my priority either.

Brandon's net worth

is not $62 billion, it's $64.7 billion.

I know because a wife knows
where her husband's money's at.

-Then you must be--
-Swasti Shaw.

Director of ATOM,
South-East Asia Division.

And I was going to pay you for the coffee.

-A little to the right.
-Okay, bro.

Nandan, this isn't some tourist spot.

The NGO sends us here to help the Orakas.

-Not to take photos.
-Sorry, ma'am.

It's your first time,
so you both need to be--

Madam, the entire settlement is deserted.

Stop! Where is everyone?

A great curse has been unleashed
by the Earth.

Run away or you shall all perish!

How do you know this?

Tinnotu.

Nandan. Return right away.

Inform the Tribal Welfare folks that
the Orakas are leaving their settlement.

-You won't be coming with us?
-No.

I owe the Orakas a great debt.

And if something terrible
is about to happen,

then I can't leave them alone. You go on.

I don't understand.

If such a big disaster is going to happen,
then why is LG keeping it a secret?

Because things change, Mr. Wani.

Look, Admiral Qadri
used to be the Indian Navy's war-hero.

But right now he's protecting
his image over his country.

And I would suggest
you protect yourselves too.

Evacuation aircraft
will land in another half an hour.

If you miss those,

then be ready for a long holiday
in the Andamans.

But if the mainland
has no information about this,

then why are they sending rescue flights?

Our LG has the gift of the gab.

Earthquake, tsunami,
possible Chinese infiltration…

He must've convinced the Centre
of some imaginary threat.

All we know is that the mainland knows

neither about the disease
nor its severity.

And what about Swaraj Mahotsav?

We have made a significant investment
into this festival.

-Our revenue--
-Hey, B-school. Shush.

You're talking about drops in an ocean.

Look, it's your decision to make.

Would you rather have him
do a SWOT analysis

or have me save your lives?

What are you getting out of this?

Just a simple transfer
back to the mainland?

No.

I don't want to be transferred,

I want…

to be released.

I've been posted here…

as a punishment.

A prison sentence at the Kaala Paani.

What do you think?

Those prison walls are ten feet high?

The actual walls
of the prison are outside.

And they aren't made of bricks.

They're made of water.

I just want to smash that wall

and escape out of here.

And to make that happen,

I'll do whatever I have to.

Let's do what he says.

All citizens, please pay attention.

This is an announcement
for emergency drill.

Please stay calm.

No one's telling us what's going on.
Why close the indoor stadium?

Our kids are inside
and you've closed the gates?

Everyone will be allowed outside
only after being tested.

Wait over there,
you also need to get tested.

Hey! Tested for what?

-Sir--
-Is COVID back again or what?

Sir, it's a drill.
We haven't been told anything else.

Your drill can go take a hike!

We want to go inside! Our kids are inside!

-Come on, brother. Let's go in.
-Please, sir.

Next.

Ma'am, this is your PPE kit.

No, I'm just here to report.

Putting it on is compulsory.
The waiting area is inside on the right.

Next!

Jyotsna!

Did you check the log?

Jagtap's insulin log. Did you check it
before administering the shot?

What? I don't remember…

He has received multiple shots, Jyotsna!

Insulin overdose.
He's going into a cardiac arrest.

Hurry. Fast!

Sir, he's not recovering.

We're losing him, sir!

Jyotsna!

Jyotsna!

Jyotsna?

Jyotsna Dey.

I'm not well. I need to go home.

Okay, then fill up this form and go.

If this is just a drill,
then why are real oxygen cylinders here?

No idea, madam.
They're not telling us anything.

Okay, okay…

Okay, okay…

Don't cry. Don't cry, Jyotsna.

It's not your fault.
It's not your fault, Jyotsna.

You were overburdened, I know that.

Now, listen to me. Listen to me.

Look, look. We need to get away right now…

Jagtap's party workers,

they're trying to find
the person responsible.

Wait.

Where's the doctor?

What happened to him? How did he die?

Who is his doctor?

Jyotsna, we have to leave, now. Come on.

-Tell me who his doctor is!
-I don't know.

What did I pay so much money for?

For what? I'll beat you up so bad,
the hospital won't be able to fix you!

-Who is his doctor?
-I don't know--

Tell me who it is! I'll beat you so bad…

Call and ask. Who is it?

-Number…
-You don't know the number? Hit him!

Run, run!

We request you to cooperate
with the authorities.

People outside the hall
should remain outside

and those inside, please stay calm.

Once we finish testing everyone,
you will be free to leave.

We request you to cooperate…

Look, please don't overcrowd, please.

Kaddu, listen. There's a big crowd there.
I'll find out what's going on.

Stay here till I come back.
Okay? Sit right here.

-I'll be right back.
-Okay.

Open the gates.

What test?

Let us out!

What samples do you need?

Open the door!

Let us go…

How can you close the gates?

Uncle! Over here! Uncle!

Once the samples are taken,
you will be free to leave.

Please move over, people!

Everyone is safe here.

Everyone is safe here.

There is no need to panic.

Hey! Look!
The VIPs are escaping from the back gate!

And the cops are helping them!
They're running away! Look!

Unlock the doors, quick!

What samples are being taken?

-What test will happen?
-Stay back!

-Where are you taking the VIPs?
-Hey, don't touch me!

-You can't do this.
-Where are you taking the VIPs?

-Move back!
-We are not scared of you!

-Move back!
-Then fire it!

Kaddu!

Brother Guchhu!

One second! Kaddu!

Brother Guchhu!

Get in.

You're his doctor!

The doctor's here!
The doctor's trying to escape!

Jyotsna, hide in the backseat.

Hide in the backseat!

-Hey! Where are you running off to?
-Vipin!

Who?

Who killed my father?

Whose negligence killed my father?

Sir… Sir, look…

It was my mistake.

Mine. I'm sorry.

Get him!

Vipin…

Finish him.

Vipin…

Stop. It's done.

I'm sorry, Anni. I just couldn't…

I couldn't…

Brother Guchhu!

Brother Guchhu!

Kaddu!

Kaddu!

Brother Guchhu!

Brother Guchhu!

Kaddu!

Kaddu!

Kaddu!

Kaddu!

Kaddu, wait! No, wait, Kaddu! Stop!

Hey! Hey, watch out! Watch out!

Hey, watch and drive!

Kaddu? Are you okay? Are you hurt?

-Let's get out of here.
-Come on. Come on.

Get in the car.

You brought her. She's your junior.

You'd have to take
the responsibility for it.

I don't think
I need to tell you why you're here.

Or do I?

Sir…

We need the help.

I'm truly sorry,
I know I went against you and told--

I don't want you
to apologize for your mistake.

I want you to realize it.

Why?

What made you do it?

Sir…

people need to know the truth.

If there's going to be an outbreak,
then everyone needs to know the truth--

The truth always comes at a price.

And when that price
has to be paid in human lives,

you have to be very careful with it.

What do you think?

Now that the mainland knows
everything about the disease,

what is the first thing they'll do?

-Sir--
-I'll tell you.

The Andaman and Nicobar Islands will be
isolated from the rest of the world.

Nothing and no one can go in or out.

The tourists
won't be able to go back home,

and the locals
won't be able to leave theirs.

Not just that,
there's no water in our houses.

And for miles,
in every direction around us,

there's no land.

If not now, maybe four or 24 hours later
the truth would've come out anyway.

But that would've given me a little time.

To evacuate at least
a few people off the islands.

But, sir, there are lakhs
of people here right now.

How many could we save
with rescue flights anyway?

This morning,
when I heard about the infection,

I knew it right then.

I knew that today

I can't possibly be making
any right decision.

But still…

If I could save a thousand,

maybe even a few hundred lives,

it would be…

a lesser wrong decision.

But sir, these islands
are home to lakhs of Indian citizens.

Maybe they won't take
such drastic measures.

They will.

I know they will.

How can you be so sure, sir?

How can you know
that quarantining the islands

is the only choice they'll make?

I know because…

this is what I would've done.

Yes?

All right.

What happened, sir?

The switch.

They just flipped the switch.
