The supplies are thin.

We wouldn't last more than three days.

It's time, Kanji… We must return.

Go back to scribbling, Mr. Isayama.

As long as the red sun of Japan
shines over the dark waters of Andaman,

I'm not abandoning my post.

But it's been 39 days!

The platoon
was supposed to arrive long back.

We have to wait for them. Here!

Then let this be my order, Private.

Don't forget I outrank you.

We are in the middle of a war.

Every soldier outranks a doctor now.

They get men like me to inflict wounds,
so that the men like you can treat them.

Mr. Isayama, you can--

Long live the Emperor!

Long live the Emperor!

Long live the Emperor!

Hideo… It's Hideo!

-Hey, Hideo!
-Long live the Emperor!

What happened? Where are the others?

Hideo… where is everyone?

-Step back, Kanji!
-The plague took them all.

Step back from the man!

The plague… it took them all.

Go get some water for him.
And my camera… Now!

Hideo, did anyone make it?

Not in our squad.

But there was a unit with two survivors.

It was a miracle.

The plague…

They were completely immune to it.

Immune?

Yes. Go to Jenkins Island.

You'll find the survivors
on the peak of Bogart Hill,

taking care of the bodies.

These soldiers… Do you know their names?

They are… They are not soldiers…

They are…

The Chosen Ones.

Who?

SP?

Morning, sir.

Morning, Shiva.

So, today's bad news
precedes the breakfast?

Sorry, sir, but it was urgent.

The top management of ATOM
has left Andaman, sir,

and we don't have their whereabouts.

Santosh sir… Sir.

Are you okay, sir?

Let's go, sir. The water level is rising.
We must leave before the tide arrives.

Let's go.

What happened to the boat?

A catastrophe, sir.

The storm came in,
and the motor broke down.

I don't know where we are now.
We might figure it out from up there.

Watch out, sir.

Where are we?

How far are we from Port Blair?

Sir, we inquired everywhere.

The ATOM executives were last seen
heading towards the port,

but nobody saw them return.

So, despite a strict curfew,

the only people who managed to escape,
also happen to be the richest ones here?

What do you think,

how will the common people here
react to this coincidence?

Sir, I know this shows
the administration in a bad light.

They'll lose all faith in us, Shiva.

If the people are staying locked indoors
despite the hardships,

it's only because they trust us.

No.

We owe it to the islanders.
To those who lost their loved ones.

Before this news finds our citizens,
we must find these people.

We need to know where they are
and where they're heading.

Shiva, there must be someone
who knows something about them.

There is someone,

but I don't think he's the most
reliable voice in the room.

Not him.

Sir, sorry for saying this to you,
but it's been half an hour, sir.

I asked Usman and then Sharad
to get me a cup of tea and some snacks.

Could you please check what happened?

Ketan, I've come directly
from LG sir's place,

and I need a direct answer.

Where are they?

I just told you, sir.

-I thought they went to get me tea.
-I'm not…

Ketan, you know very well
what I'm asking you.

Sir, you took my statement.

You really want me to believe
that they'd left before you got there?

And then somebody knocked you out,

and when you woke up, we were there.

A little too convenient, right?

I know I've cried wolf many times,
but this time, the wolf is real, sir.

Ketan, do you really think
that if you help them,

they'll help you return to the mainland?

I used to think so, sir.

But things have changed now.

They don't need me anymore.

-And that's what I'm trying…
-Shut up!

Why do you always keep lying?

Because I'm suffering
for speaking the truth!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, sir.

I'm extremely sorry, sir.

Sir, I know
it's not easy for you to believe it,

but I'm telling you the truth, sir.

And if you still want to punish me for it,
please go ahead.

Because this won't be the first time.

Sir!

-Did you ask for me?
-Come in, Kamat. Sit.

I was reading your report.

The Jagdish Bindal case?

Are there any other
high profile builders you raided?

-But good work, I must say.
-Thank you, sir.

There were a few errors in this,

-so, I made some corrections.
-Okay.

-It's good to go. Just sign it.
-Yes.

This…

This is wrong, sir.

Sir, we confiscated

around three crores in cash,
but it just says 18 lakhs here.

The amount is correct.

Your team confirmed it.

No, sir. I was there. This can't…

So this is why it took me so long
to get the permissions.

Mr. Bindal wants
to meet you personally, Kamat.

And he has a number in mind.

Sir, you want to save Jagdish Bindal?

No, Kamat. I want to save you.

Shake hands with the hunter,
or you'll get hunted.

This is your chance…

to rise up the food chain.

Sorry, sir.

Not all of us are animals
trapped in a food chain.

Some of us still have

free will.

But it didn't end there.

The Bindal case caused an uproar.
There was an enquiry and when they--

Sir, there's been stone pelting
on a truck near Bhathu Basti, again.

Oh, God!

Listen, order PBMC to divert
all cargo trucks towards Kamaraj Nagar.

And contact the local SI.

-Tell him I want to talk.
-Yes, sir.

Cargo.

-Cargo containers.
-What?

Sir, right now, most of the containers
at the port belong to ATOM.

-Maybe they're…
-No, Ketan, that's impossible.

Every cargo ship
carrying essential supplies

is thoroughly checked by the Coast Guard.

They would've been caught
if they were there on a ship.

Exactly, sir, if they were on a ship.

Maybe they were
never seen leaving the port

because they never left it.

Our precious cargo
might still be at the docks.

Bro, give me water.

Here.

It's him.

Definitely him.

What place is this, sister?

It's an old military bunker.

When the Japanese
occupied Andaman during World War II,

they built many such shelters.

Wait right here.

Hello!

Anyone there?

Hello!

Basu Uncle, it's me, Jyotsna!

Who?

Jyotsna!

I was Shouvik's friend.

Vinayak and I used
to visit your place after school,

and you used to buy us tender coconut!

Do I look like a coconut seller?

Get out of here, go!

Uncle, I'm not here for myself.

These kids are tourists,
and they need medical help.

I know you have medicines
in your supplies.

If you can just let us in,
I'll take the medicines and leave.

I'm not running an NGO for sick children.

Get lost!

If Shouvik were alive,
he would've never asked me to leave.

-Basu Uncle.
-Stop!

Just do as you're told.

So this antimicrobial peptide, LK-37,

it is potent enough
to kill the LHF bacteria?

Sir, Soudamini ma'am's research
points in that direction.

This peptide is only found
in a rare native plant,

Andamani Echinacea.

And you believe

that if we can extract
this peptide from this plant,

we might have a potential treatment?

-It is a theory, sir.
-A theory?

Yes, sir. Something like this
has happened before. Right here.

Years ago, researchers discovered

a plant in Little Andaman
which kills Plasmodium falciparum,

the most dreaded malarial parasite.

Sir, they basically found the cure
to cerebral malaria in our backyard.

Sir, what if a plant
is the cure for this disease?

It's a theory worth looking into.

Don't call it a theory. It's just a--

-Yes?
-Sir!

Dr. Aditi collapsed in ICU 2.
She was working for 36 hours straight.

Take her to the staff room,
and get someone to attend to her.

I'll cover her patients.

But where is this plant?
And how come I've never heard about it?

Because this species was believed
to be extinct for over 30 years.

But during the 2025 eco-survey,
in Jenkins Biological Park,

they found an acre
of Echinacea plantations.

I've formed a team with three residents.
We're going to collect samples.

Wait, wait. What?

Ritu, we are terribly
understaffed over here.

See, I appreciate your concern,
but now is not the time.

Sorry, sir, but now is the time.

If this theory works out,
we'll be able to save thousands--

This is my problem.

Don't call it a theory. It's not one.

-What do you mean?
-It's just a hypothesis.

For it to become a theory,

we have to conduct successful experiments.
That isn't done yet.

Sir…

See, Ritu,

no doctor has been assigned
to 11 beds in ICU 3.

So instead
of running after a mythical plant,

let us focus on saving
real human lives. Okay?

Thank you.

Two of our teams have reached the port,
but there is no update yet.

Thank you, sir,
but I don't like this flavor.

I'm still not convinced, Ketan.

There's something odd about your story.

If you were telling the truth,

then why were you punished?

Because, sir, in this system,
it doesn't matter what one is saying.

What matters is, who is saying it.

And in this case,
the enquiry committee told me…

ACP Kamat, let me start by saying,
your report is really good police work.

But the problem
is that the evidence you've mentioned,

where is it?

The documents, the missing cash.

And why is your own team
not backing this report?

Ma'am, maybe…

maybe because
this involves a very powerful man.

But, ACP, we need someone
to corroborate your statement.

There were independent witnesses.
The hotel staff, other guests.

Their signed testimonies are here.

-You can check with them.
-What if we already have?

What if all of the witnesses said

all they signed
were blank pieces of paper?

And that you made them do it.

What?

-Why would I? Why would I do it?
-I don't know.

Maybe because
this involves a very powerful man?

Ma'am, that's impossible.

All these testimonies are genuine.

Someone has influenced the witnesses.

If you please allow me to explain--

This committee
has done it's due diligence.

They've all
spoken out of their own free will.

Do you understand?

Don't worry, you won't be suspended.

Instead, I'll push for a transfer.

And, please, don't take it personally.

The smallest animals
are the first to die in a food chain.

Ketan.

And then I was thrown into this cage.

There was only one way
I could return home.

Instead of the prey…

I had to learn to be the predator.

Sir!

Officer Jayant from the search team.

-Yes, Jayant, go ahead.
-We found them, sir.

Their containers
were right at the entrance.

We didn't even have to look far.
Your deduction was spot on.

Listen to me. Take them to ATOM Paradise.

Keep the whole thing as quiet as possible.

And deploy some officers at ATOM Paradise.

Are we on the right track?

I'm your guide, sir.
I'll always guide you on the right path.

It might be far,

but as per Oraka territory,
the main road is this way.

It's been forever.
Why haven't we seen any Orakas yet?

They must be nearby.
Maybe they are watching us, sir.

Hey!

Hey! Anyone here?

Is anyone here?

Save us!

Brother, anyone here?

We are from Port Blair…

Anyone here? We need a little help!

Where have they gone
after setting up the tents?

Hello, sir!

We're your new best friends!

Anyone here?
We are from Port Blair. We are in trouble.

We're your new best friends!
I'm Chiru and Mr. Santosh is with me.

He must have caried the water
from Port Blair before the lockdown, sir.

Poison would've been a better choice.

What is that?

Those are turtle eggs, sir.

Turtle eggs?

Why are these with them?

Poaching is rampant in these jungles, sir.
They must've come to steal these.

They even dig deep trenches
to trap big animals. So watch your step.

What happened, sir?

Sir!

Pull your hair up.

Show me your neck.

Uncle, I used to be
a healthcare professional.

I wouldn't bring them here
if they were infected.

But you can still check.

My first rule is that
no one else enters my house.

Don't think that I took pity on you.

I thought of Shouvik, so I broke my rule.

Leave with your puppies
as soon as you find the medicines.

Till then, follow my rules.

Your eyes and your feet
must land only where I ask them to.

Six feet distance!

But why do you live here?

I'm allergic.

I'm allergic to people.

When a person comes near me,
I feel like splitting their head open.

That's why I live here, alone.
This place and I take care of each other.

Like Japanese history,
I'm also part of it now.

Don't touch anything.

There are two beds
in the room on the left.

Go and sleep there.

Do not come out until I tell you to.

I like Andaman. Breakfast at 7:45 a.m.

Didn't eat much. Morning, a convoy…

Heavy rain, very foggy…

Nov, 1942, good sleep.
Ship shook violently. South of Andaman…

What did I tell you?

-But this man seems to have LHF…
-What did I tell you?

Don't touch my belongings.

Out!

Out!

Okay.

So, they're refusing to tell us anything?

Yes, sir.

Our officers have interrogated
every employee,

but they still don't know
what their destination was.

-Because they don't have authority--
-May I try, sir?

Sir,

compared to others here,
I understand their weak points better.

I can speak to them if you…

only if you trust me, sir.

-I'll take it from here.
-Yes, sir.

It's been an hour, Ritu. How far is it?

Well, we should be nearby.

Man, why did we follow her here?

This reservation quota doctor
is gonna find Echinacea?

Stop this nonsense.

This is one acre of echinacea plantation?

No.

It's impossible.
It's supposed to be right here.

Yeah, we are at the exact location.
This information can't be wrong.

Maybe the experts are right.
The plant is probably extinct.

They minted money stealing those eggs.

Look at the treasures here.
Do you want it or shall I keep it?

Okay, I'll keep it for both of us.

Smoke more. How do you like it?

-Join hands with us and reap the benefits.
-Smoke it.

Come on. Hey, did you enjoy it?

Take a puff.

Here, try this. Take it. Give it a go.

-Take a swig.
-What are they doing?

This happens all the time.

Have it, smoke, smoke, smoke…

Poachers come here
and get the Oraka boys and girls

drunk and high,
and take advantage of them.

They've even raped Oraka girls.

Look, how cold it is.
Try it, come on! Take a swig.

-Have some water. Come on!
-No, don't…

Yes!

Go on, drink it.

Fantastic.

An Oraka drank that water.

This means the Orakas are…

This is bad.

Maybe we didn't see any Orakas
because there are none left, sir.

Why… Why do you have these turtle eggs?

-Sir, these aren't those eggs. They…
-You brought this bag from Port Blair.

-It's my bag.
-So did you always have…

-You came to Neil Island to deliver these.
-No, sir, you were going there, so I…

No! You asked me.
I agreed because you asked me.

You said, "It's just for a day.
It's a beautiful place."

"Madam will love it."

My Gargi died over there.

And my kids are all done.

Who knows if they are even alive.

-Don't say that, sir. It's…
-It's all because of you!

You broke my family.

What did I do, sir?

What are you doing, sir? Please relax.
Please, I'll get hurt, sir. Please.

That day, at the airport,
why did I take your taxi?

Listen to me, sir.

Sir.

-Sir--
-Don't touch me!

You were never my guide.

You never guided me on the right path.

You took me down the wrong one!
But not anymore.

-I won't go with you.
-Sir! What are you doing?

Don't follow me!

-Where are you going? You'll get lost.
-More lost than I already am?

You can't, sir. You don't know the route.

Santosh sir, don't be stubborn!
It's getting dark. You'll get lost!

I… Santosh sir, listen to me!
You won't be able to do it.

Santosh sir, listen to me!

Sir.

I think we should reconvene in some time.

-Thank you.
-Thank you, sir.

What happened? Did they tell you anything?

This…

-Whose phone number is this?
-Hello, Samant.

Contact the SP.

And get me the biggest South Asia map
you have in this office.

This isn't a phone number, Mr. Bhowmik.

These are coordinates.

Huxley. Huxley Island.

Why haven't I heard of this place?

Because this isn't ours.

In fact, this island
is not a part of India.

Then?

It's in Burma.

Burma is closer to us
than the Indian mainland.

-And this island is part of Burma.
-It was, sir.

-What?
-It was part of Burma.

As of last week,

ATOM bought this island
from their government.

-And they willingly told you this?
-Wait a minute. They bought it?

-Yes, sir.
-They bought an entire island?

For the sake of his wife's safety,
it's a very small price to pay.

Good heavens.

So, they must have been
planning this for a while.

Sir, we can't spare them!
We must take strict action against them.

I think…

we should let them go.

Sir…

This island is unique.

For the first time since the outbreak,
we have access to a land

which is free from infection.

A place which is safe,
habitable and without any jurisdiction.

A place where we can isolate
and protect our non-infected citizens.

-It's a…
-Safe haven.

ATOM employees will go to this island,

but with thousands
of our non-infected civilians.

This won't be their escape mission.
It'll be our rescue mission.

-Mr. Bhowmik.
-Sir.

How many people
can our largest ship carry?

We can accommodate 5,000, sir.

But what's the point
of saving a few thousands?

It'll be a start.

No matter how long the journey is,
it always begins with a single step.

But, sir, ATOM won't agree to this.

To arrange resources
for thousands of people on an island,

take care of them,

I don't think they'd agree.

They'll have to.

-But, sir, they won't.
-Then make them.

Look…

I know they listened to you once.

Convince them once again.

In the next seven days,
our first evacuation ship

will leave from Port Blair
with 5,000 people.

Do what you have to…

but get that ship to its destination.

What are you translating?

Uncle, sorry. Sorry, I made a mistake.

Not you, I made a mistake.
By letting you into my bunker.

Get out! Get lost.

Uncle, what's wrong?

Uncle, I apologize on his behalf.
I'm extremely sorry.

I won't forgive you for breaking my rules!

Pack your bags and get out of here.
All three of you!

Uncle, what's the big deal?

I'm sorry for touching your things.

But how can you kick us out
for breaking a stupid rule?

Do you know what these rules mean to me?

1974, Bengal.

I lost four brothers
to the smallpox pandemic,

but I survived.

Twenty years back, the malaria epidemic
took away half my family…

and my son.

But I still survived.

From local epidemic to COVID pandemic,

I survived everything.

You know why? Because of my rules.

Before you break my rules
and put my life at risk,

I say get out.

-Get out!
-No, we won't.

You've been misbehaving for so long!

Where are your manners?
Is this how you talk?

Hey, this is my house.

I can talk the way I like.

He was touching my belongings.
And I hate it!

Then learn to share.

Divya Miss says,
"When we share, we make a new friend."

You don't share,
that's why you have no friends.

I don't want friends!
I don't need friends, I need my rules.

I'm alive because of them.

-And I'll continue to live, you get that?
-But for whom?

You will have no one to play with.

I'm going to sleep. Don't wake me up.

Okay?

Would you please sign this form?

Thank you.

I'm sorry, sir. I'm really sorry, sir.

Ritu, I had asked you to stay here.

You couldn't have
saved those ICU patients,

but you could've eased their pain.

Sir, I thought…

I was really hopeful that the plant
would lead to a treatment.

But…

I am sorry, sir.

I just wanted to do a good thing.

That's the problem with you.

You're so obsessed
with doing the good thing

that you forget
your job is to do the right thing.

Ouch!

And I thought only my boss
can rip a heart to pieces.

It's okay, it's my fault.
He has a right to be upset.

Ketan Kamat, SDPO.

-Sorry.
-No, I'm sorry.

Hello, sir. Ritu.

Are you from the mainland?

Yes.

Same here.

What a place to get stuck at, isn't it?

Even you must want
to desperately get back.

-No, sir.
-No?

Fire brigade can't run away from a fire.

If they flee, everything will burn down.

-Wow!
-Ketan.

Sir, you?

Sir.

My boss.

Sir, I'm here for a concussion check-up.

Sir, you shouldn't have taken
the trouble to visit me.

I'm not here for you, Ketan.

The bodies of three NGO workers
were found near Oraka territory yesterday.

Dr. Shashi wanted some details
for the postmortem.

He just went back to his duty.
I can hand it over to him.

Sure.

Thank you.

Good that I saw you here, Ketan.
I have a question for you. Come.

How did you convince ATOM
to give away their destination so easily?

I played them, sir.

I made them believe
that I'm working for them.

But I was on the other side. Your side.

By the way, sir, thanks a lot.

Though it's been over four years,

it feels like I'm fighting for the truth
for the first time since the Bindal case.

I'll take your leave. Thank you, sir.

Wait a minute, Ketan.

You were transferred
to Port Blair two years ago.

Yes, sir.

If you were transferred
because of the Bindal case…

how could it be four years ago?

Right. Sorry, sir.

-It's two years, I mixed up the dates.
-No.

Not the dates.

You mixed up the facts, Ketan.

This case had nothing
to do with your transfer.

Is that why I was feeling odd?

You were not the prey…

you were the predator.

You were always on the other side.

Four years ago, it was you…

who ruined a junior officer's career.

You really want me to believe

that they'd left before you got there?

And then somebody knocked you out,
and when you woke up, we were there.

Tell me honestly, Ketan,
what exactly had happened that night?

We don't have a choice.

Stop! I can help you escape. Stop.

You're saying we should pretend to escape
and then get caught deliberately.

Look, you'll get caught anyway.

It's impossible to escape
the Coast Guard and the Navy.

You don't need a ship or a plane
to get out of this place,

you need the LG's permission.

And you'll get it

only if LG benefits
from sending you there.

Wait a minute.

If we have to evacuate thousands
to be able to get out of here,

then why don't we offer this to LG?

Why go through all of this?

Because there is a food chain, ma'am.

Lion eats deer, and deer eats grass.

The deer can't pitch the lion
a proposal to directly eat the grass.

If you go to LG,

it'll always be a proposal
for your escape.

He may or may not take the deal.

But…

if you do what I'm telling you,

LG, himself,
will come to you with this deal.

And such a deal
would not just be free of risk,

but…

you will also
get to decide the terms of it.

You're just speculating, sir.

And even if I actually did this,

you can't prove it.

Why don't I try, Ketan?

I can at least try to share
my speculation with LG sir.

But you won't, sir.

Because this evacuation deal
won't work without me.

And are you really going to risk the lives
of 5,000 people just to get back at me?

Thought so.

Sir, please…

please don't take it personally.

The smallest animals
are the first to die in a food chain.

May I sit here?

But six feet distance.

There's no space.

Okay, five feet distance.

I'm not here to make friends.

I still won't share my things with anyone.

But there's some knowledge I can share.

So, LHF has been here before?

Few days back, when I heard
about this disease on the radio,

I felt I've read about it somewhere.

This journal belongs to a Japanese doctor.

80 years ago, he discovered

that few people
are immune to this disease.

How can anyone be immune to LHF?

You know what, Parth?

All living beings,

from trees to birds, from man to fish,

have one thing in common.

They all are survivors.

Some survive with their venomous bite,

some by sucking blood,
some by building nests.

Some by making rules.

Natural selection.

Santosh sir!
Where are you? Answer, if you can hear me.

Where do I find him now?

Nature only selects the survivors.

Thousands of years ago,
when the ground vegetation thinned out,

animals started dying.

In order to survive,
giraffes had to stretch their neck.

Turtles did not have the ability
to run from their predators,

so they developed
a strong shell on their backs.

While some animals like elephants

became so strong
that it was impossible to hunt them.

Upon reaching Bogart Hill,

the doctor realized that the people
who could survive this disease

were the local guides who lead their army.

People who knew every inch of this land.

This means…

The Orakas have lived
on these islands for 60,000 years.

They had figured out a way
to fight this disease centuries ago.

And they are Andaman's Eraba Reta Mono,

the Chosen Ones.

No matter how harsh Nature is…

it gives strength
even to the weakest animals…

and to every strong animal, a weakness.
