Original subtitles

The family relocated from Bhojipura to Kishan Nagar.

In November 2016, the sky fell down around them.

-How much money did you take? -Rs. 2 million.

Bhuvan wrote in those registers.

As Jawahar Singh.

Papa! Papa...

He reconnected with his father.

Ambar got admitted to school.

You've got a job!

Hello, Kishore.

We have the scan, sir. We've traced the bike number.

You know what?

Uncle Bhuvan used to be possessed by the late grandpa.

Sir, let me take a permanent break from this case.

The actual culprit has probably reached abroad.

We have evidence.

There must be more registers.

Jai Hind, sir.

Jai Hind, Anya. You called?

Yes.

There's been a development.

Yes, go on.

Nine registers have been discovered in the Rajawat house.

They contain numerous details about the family.

So, will it help us crack the case?

Not sure, sir.

I have just started reading them.

This is good news.

-Well done, Anya. -Thank you, sir.

By the way, I have been waiting for the email

that you were going to send. When can I expect it?

Actually, sir...

We'll figure it out on the next case.

Got it. I have an entry for 8/16/2010.

-Bhuvan. -Listen.

Yes.

-I must tell you something. -Go on.

Something happened to me the other day.

What happened?

I swam out very far...

into the lake.

Suddenly I felt as if someone had grabbed me tight.

I was being dragged down into the water.

It felt like the end of everything.

Suddenly...

everything got better.

Are you saying Papa is back?

Bhuvan!

Brother, I have turned on the motor. Check it.

Give it some slack!

I am sure sis has a boyfriend.

Do you want to hear a story?

Your grandpa told me.

Look what Dad got you.

-A designer shirt. -Wow!

Taste it and tell me how you like it.

Want some chickpeas curry?

I'll soak them for tomorrow.

Anshika! You're back.

What do you think of the boy?

I won't marry him.

What? You just met him for the first time today.

Mom, I met him, not you.

He wanted to plan my whole life at the very first meeting.

What I should do or not do...

As if he owns me!

Isn't it good that he was making plans?

Yes.

Has any boy come to meet you given that there've been 10 proposals?

Your birth chart is really flawed, dear.

This boy has come to meet you for the first time, and you're nitpicking.

You know you're 33 years old, right?

Your birth chart is aspected by Mars.

Wait, please. What are we speaking about here?

A boy met her for the first time, and she doesn't like him.

But, sister, since Anshika doesn't like the boy,

why make her meet him again?

That boy earns well.

-Yes. -Yes.

He will make you happy.

Yes, but, since she isn't keen on him,

no relationship will make her happy.

How about some tea? Make me some tea, please.

Why did you reject that boy?

I am sure sis has a boyfriend.

Don't you have one too?

-Shut up! -Yeah, right.

Tell me, sis.

I don't have a boyfriend.

Well, that guy was handsome.

And how will his looks help me?

A lot of boxes have to be ticked for a relationship.

You'll figure it out when you grow up.

-We're not infants either, sis. -You bet.

Oh, really? You said she's got a boyfriend.

What's his name?

He's not a boyfriend as such.

He's a guy from my dance class.

-He's hot. -He's hot?

But Meethi talks too much.

As if! I saw the two of you at the mall the other day.

-Really? What were you doing at the mall? -Yes.

-Well... -Anshu...

Yes, Uncle?

Listen, don't pay any attention to what these folks say.

I spoke to Grandpa.

He said everything will work out.

You will meet a nice guy, and...

you will get a promotion at work very soon.

Okay, dear?

-Don't stress out at all. -Okay.

(chanting in Sanskrit)

Brother, I have turned on the motor. Check it.

What is it, dear?

Why are you sitting here?

Dad, ma'am has told me to lead prayers at school. All by myself.

That's nice.

What's the problem with that?

What if I get stuck while reciting prayers in front of everyone?

Dad, I don't wish to go up on stage.

Why are you scared?

If you are faced by challenges, don't back off.

Your courage...

will become your power later on.

"Don't take my arrivals and departures as ordinary incidents."

When one is devoted,

you can believe in anything whatsoever.

"Chanting the mantras reminds us we are all united."

If for any reason

a member is absent,

then we should be lenient with that person.

"But keep in mind

"that this may cause problems for all the members of the family.

"The mental beliefs all of you have fostered over the past 7 years..."

Must not be allowed to weaken for any reason.

Focus on concentrating.

"Increase your potential."

You won't get what you want only by chanting.

"You must be sincerely devoted.

"That's why when you sit together..."

Imbibe what is said in that moment.

"This is what makes you a person of strong beliefs..."

Who is capable.

We conducted a combing operation inside the house.

And discovered nine more registers.

Now we are very hopeful

that these registers will give us many more clues

about what happened inside that house that night.

-Sir! Sir, sir! -One question, sir.

Sir, registers were found earlier too.

How are these new evidence?

You are right.

But these registers contain personal stuff about the family

written down in great detail.

Sir, can reading the registers make one come to definite conclusions?

We are not making any such claims.

But surely once we have read and examined the registers,

we will have many more details,

which can help us greatly in understanding this event.

Thank you.

I know what's on your mind.

We could make one register become the nation's breaking news.

There are nine of them now!

Here we go. Breaking news incoming.

Sir, pay me.

Let me earn some!

You'll make what you earn in 2 months within a day.

No, I don't want to do this.

Okay, then listen to me.

-Get the file for half an hour. -That's right.

-We will copy it and give it back to you. -You bet!

No, please excuse me.

Don't act too high and mighty.

We may share equal ranks, but you're not my equal yet.

Who is the senior?

Anyway you're getting promoted this year, right?

So we'll be making the character conduct report.

Okay?

You can't last in the department

by making an enemy of me.

Do you understand?

-Subodh. -Ma'am!

-Do you need something? -No, ma'am.

I was just looking.

Did you find anything?

No. I'm still reading through.

There are a lot of them. Can I help with any of this?

Why? Don't you have anything to do today?

No, ma'am. I'm waiting for Nitin sir.

It's okay. I'll leave now, ma'am.

This...

-Congratulations, brother. -Bhuvan!

Here, brother. Eat some sweets.

Jalebis?

Don't you know we can't bring sweets into the house, Karuna?

You know what the doctor says will happen if Mother's diabetes acts up.

Watch out, it's hot.

-Here you are, brother. -Okay.

-Want some? -No.

I will serve myself. Please serve yourself.

The lentils are really tasty today.

-Yes! -Why aren't they home yet?

It will take time to get Grandma's reports.

-I see. -Here they are.

-Come in, Mother. -Come, Mother.

Come, Mother. Sit.

-Did you bring jalebis? -Sure, I did.

I think Mother will have only jalebis from now on.

Here, Mother.

Her diabetes report is negative.

Grandpa said that, right?

The last time I ate a jalebi

was 18 years ago with my husband.

I ate it at the Gupta Jalebi vendor in Fatehpur.

Eat some more.

Eat more.

None of the information in the registers should reach the media.

Jai Hind, sir.

Guys, meet Dr. Desai.

He is India's renowned clinical psychologist.

He is going to help us with this case.

So, what did we find in the registers?

Sir, Bhuvan.

Sir, Bhuvan believed that

he could communicate with his dead father.

At times, he used to speak with the voice of his father.

(chanting in Sanskrit)

All of you seem happy.

You've begun to realise

that my presence is the power

that will give you anything you want.

The future will lead you to greater heights.

Coincidences are occurring.

My presence here is not mere happenstance.

You all have my blessings.

My life and my death

will lead you to your destination.

This is the kind of boon

that has been offered to a family after ages.

All eleven of you must stay united.

Remember...

that 11...

is the essence of power.

What did the rest of the family believe?

Sir, after perusing the registers, it seems clear that

his wife and some family members believed it on some level.

But there were some other members, like his sister-in-law,

weren't quite so convinced.

How long will this carry on?

What?

You know what's going on at home right now.

I've been watching for some time now.

It's okay to listen to it to some extent.

So far, everyone has only benefitted from it.

Right now, we need it more than ever.

It's all right if it's limited to need and benefits.

But while doing so, don't forget that

you are the elder brother of the family, not Bhuvan.

Dr. Desai.

First of all, I need to read all the registers to form an opinion.

Please allow me some time.

Send the registers for handwriting analysis.

-Already done, sir. -Great.

Sir, I have another suggestion.

I think we should go ahead and do a psychological autopsy in this case.

Listen, a psychological autopsy involves

an attempt to study a person's mental state

by analysing medical records, talking to friends and family

and conducting research

into their state of mind prior to death.

I think that's a good idea.

Anya, when will you finish reading the registers?

Sir, it's taking a while.

These registers aren't mentioned in a clear sequence.

Some of these 900 pages are dated, some are not.

It's taking time to match them up.

Some entries are in Sanskrit.

So it's been hard.

Let's get this rolling as soon as possible.

Because if we match the results of the psychological autopsy

with the reading of the registers,

I think we might be able to solve the mystery behind these deaths.

Yes, sir.

Sorry, ma'am.

I have messed up big time.

I took this away from here myself.

But later...

I felt ashamed about doing this.

Sorry, ma'am.

I am not this kind of person, ma'am.

Let me say another thing.

The news leak about Chamatkari Baba.

I mentioned the location by mistake

before we left this place.

They offered me money for this register.

Why did you bring the register back?

You could have made some money.

I was nervous about their threats, rather than the lure of money.

I don't wish to be scared.

Who threatened you?

Nirmal or Shambhu?

DCP sir will do what needs to be done.

Anyway, both of you feel terribly ashamed if I instruct you.

But, ma'am, we didn't do anything.

You seem to believe what Subodh said!

I know, right?

It's our job to discern lies from the truth.

You guys taught me that.

Shambhu, you can go to your desk.

I wish to speak to Mr. Nirmal.

Do you wish to say something?

No, ma'am. I have nothing to say.

You've checked it all out.

-I have been telling you for so long-- -Shut up.

998-00-323.

-Is that your number? -Yes, it is, but...

Five calls were made to the Daily News from this number.

Exactly one hour before our raid.

Bhuvan, my man! How the heck are you?

-How are you? -I'm fabulous, bro.

I have been calling you for 12 years now.

-You never take my calls. -No, just some family issues--

Yes, sure. I know all about your family.

Doesn't your family allow you to reply to WhatsApp messages either?

Forget about all that. Tell me how you are.

I am absolutely fine.

I've come to you today. The flight landed yesterday.

-Come, let's drink some tea. -Listen to me.

Not here!

Let's go to our spot and drink.

This is where we used to come.

We used to bunk Sharma's classes to drink chilled beer. That was fun.

This place has changed quite a bit, right?

Yes.

-The lighting has changed. -Yes.

Our spot has become fancy.

You know, those were the best of times.

Fuck, those were fun times.

Come, let's get nostalgic about the past.

No, bro. I've quit now.

What?

When did that happen?

Are you an ascetic now?

How's it like in the US?

Come over sometime. I'll give you a tour.

-How long are you here for? -I'll stay for some time.

I have two weeks of office work to do first. Then...

I will go home for a week.

There are property matters back there too.

I don't know if anything can be done within a week.

Are you in a hurry right now?

I came to meet you, punk.

Do you think I would rush through? I've got all the time. Tell me.

A week later, the money that Babita was hoping to get

as compensation from the school was also paid up.

Rs. 1.8 million, bro.

Mahipal's Rs. 2 million debt was repaid with that money.

That would make it a coincidence, right?

Malaj, I don't know how to explain it to you.

I can sense Papa.

When he visits,

I feel as if I am Papa.

Later, I feel very tired.

As if someone has wrung me out like wet laundry.

Listen, bro.

I believe you since you say so.

But I have a suggestion.

We should get an opinion.

It's just a simple appointment. Come with me.

Don't be scared. There's nothing to it.

Do you want me to get beaten up?

You won't get beaten up.

If you don't help me, I will be.

The test will take place tomorrow.

Study.

Grandma, no matter how much I study, I will fail.

The Physics teacher doesn't want me to pass.

Grandma, I can't show my report card to Dad then.

Can I tell you a story?

No, Grandma. Promise me this first.

Your grandpa told me.

Mr. Rajawat, don't be scared.

After such serious trauma and head injuries,

often people have strange thoughts and unreal experiences.

They seem completely real.

One day a disciple asked his teacher,

"Teacher, can I cross the ocean by walking on water?"

The teacher immediately replied, "Of course.

"If you wish, you can do so.

"I can provide you with a solution to do this, if you wish."

He said so and

wrote something on a piece of paper and gave it to the student.

He said, "As long as you have this chit, you won't drown.

"But don't open the note."

The student went off to walk on water with the note.

He kept walking on and on.

Let's assume

that the mind is unable to adjust completely to the new reality.

But the good news is that

it can be treated.

Here are some medicines.

You must start taking them today.

Maintain the routine and get enough sleep.

Let's meet again next week.

After travelling a great distance, he began to think,

"What did my teacher write in that note anyway?

"What is making me do something so difficult so easily?"

He could not help himself.

He unfolded the note.

What did he find? The note was blank.

There was nothing written on it.

He was scared to see that.

He drowned in the water.

But how is it possible?

Why didn't he drown earlier?

Because back then he was totally focused

on walking on water.

If you do something with mindfulness and complete devotion,

even if you feel it is weird to do it at that moment,

it works out well when you do it with sincerity.

I see. So he drowned because of the fear of drowning?

Yes. That's why don't worry about your grades.

Just study.

If you find you are still drowning,

then I am here to recreate your dad's signature.

I taught him to do it!

What is it?

Who is this doctor you went to?

Malaj knows someone.

I went over for a general check-up.

Crazy people visit such doctors.

You're not in the US.

I just went to satisfy him.

My son, be honest with me.

Did you go to the doctor to be free of me?

No, Papa.

You can't hide it from me even if you wish to.

Papa, what are you doing?

I only met him. I've not taken those pills. Please get down.

My son, I came back with a specific goal this time around.

We must do something big for our family's progress now.

Something that could take us very far.

(chanting in Sanskrit)

I have read this verse in one of the other registers.

But I can't tell what it means. The Sanskrit is a bit difficult.

I don't know what it means.

I think I know someone

who would be able to decipher what it means.

The French really popularised

this style of documentary filming in the early '60s.

And they called this cinéma-vérité.

-Sir. -Yeah.

But if the subjects are aware that they are being filmed,

wouldn't they behave differently?

That's why I got them drunk.

See, like cinema in real life

the actions create drama.

Under influence, people can behave like rats.

Like the Pied Piper story

where the faith in him was so strong that

they could not differentiate between right and wrong.

This experiment is about the influence.

And of course, you can't make your subjects get drunk.

Right? After you shoot them,

take their consent.

Catch them unaware, but don't breach their privacy.

All right, guys. Let's go.

Make some nice, real, meaningful cinema that you are proud of.

And I am proud of you.

All right.

It's good to see you, Anya.

You've come to me for this?

You made a documentary in Sanskrit.

-Conversations in Sanskrit? -Right.

While shooting it, you began to speak in Sanskrit at home too.

-Right. -Do you remember?

Yeah.

So can you help with this?

Let me see. I will get back to you.

Yeah?

Yes, Sanjay.

Are you sure?

Anya.

The final post-mortem reports will come tomorrow.

But a point has emerged in the initial findings.

The estimated time of death of the family members

is more or less the same.

Even grandma.

What about Bhuvan?

Bhuvan too.

Matching the forensic's scientific analysis with the time of death

makes one thing very clear.

The stools were all knocked out

at the same time forcefully.

But that can even happen

if someone else was at home.

You keep doing yoga these days.

I am practising, brother.

So I can teach everyone.

You should do it too.

Yoga calms the mind.

Take a look at this.

We will be ruined if this carries on.

What can we do?

No, you shouldn't have given out so much on credit.

You must ask the debtors to repay the loans.

It won't be adequate.

One single business won't cut it. We must do something else.

This is not the first time I've said it.

All this stuff you do, it's not going to help.

Everything is stuck in limbo.

-Anshika isn't married and-- -Rome wasn't built in a day.

It takes time.

You can think of what to do about the dairy.

I have thought about it.

Aadesh wants to set up a confectionery shop with the dairy.

Can you set up a confectionery business?

You've never done it before.

Karuna wishes to try out her recipes.

Besides, she is a magical cook.

If we make desserts at home, will we have any left for the shop?

-We will keep it all. Savouries, sweets. -Okay.

What did you say?

Papa will tell him.

Anyway, we can't set it up if he says no.

Whatever Papa thinks is right.

-Bhuvan! -Uncle!

When did you get here, son?

I just arrived.

-How are you doing? -I'm fine. How about you?

I am fine, son.

I think of Jawahar when I see you.

Son, you should pay your respects.

Jawahar was very devoted to him too.

He has been the patron saint of this village for 115 years.

So, when do you go back?

I have some work for today.

-Okay. -I will return tomorrow.

We are being tested.

Work doesn't reach completion.

Anshika got promoted.

But Amber's result isn't what he had foreseen.

But Papa is very pleased with Aadesh.

When he found out

that he has found a solution to his problems on his own

and wishes to set up a new shop,

Papa has given you his blessing.

He has also said

that we must focus on our work as well as

perform a ritual.

An ancient rite which

makes it possible for seemingly impossible things to happen.

This knowledge

is offered to a select few

over thousands of years.

What is this rite, son?

Akshay Sadhana. (rite of immortality)
